Ya, no the one I posted you just put in data local. I didn't touch the script at all so flashing pics yeah but really fast so its fluid.... lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mlkjuggalo:
Did you unzip it ? If so don't just rename it to bootanimation.zip and use Root Explorer or an app similar to it and copy and paste to system/media then reboot that's what I did and it works just fine :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Justin Thought:
Hi, all, just wanted to say that if anyone is on the fence about flashing...jump off the fence, flash it, and enjoy the benefits of KitKat adapted for Beanstalk. It's awesome! After the initial difficulty with the installation, which I detailed on an earlier post, and seems to have been unique, I have had absolutely no problems, it just keeps running. As far as the battery, I'm at 20 hours since my last charge, with some heavy use, and it has drained to 60%. Not bad.

A couple'a things that I missed from the later 4.3 ROMs, one being the battery bar, the second being Listview Animations. I figured those would probably be incorporated into later versions, but I'm one of those "immediate gratification" types, so I did a little searching. I found this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=24267823

which installs Framework on the system; and this one:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2477558

which just happens to load listview animations and battery bar under Framework.

Framework also allows you to browse a bunch of other add-ons, none of which I've found useful, but others may.

So now I have everything I want. Thanks Wantowan!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Krakozawr:
Thank for response ;) for sure, I know about this functionality and I do use this. Not it's very different stuff. Kill a current app by long-press back is very useful in situation when I start some app over other (for example, a web browser over xda client :) ) from notification driver shortcut or "long-press home task manager" and after it I have to return into previous app. If I just try to press BACK, I will move trough all in-app history of my on-screen app :( but with long a press kill I will return just in one-touch.

I was used this feature all time and I missed this ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] NoSpamDan:
Sorry, not sure what you mean. The stock one? There is no orientation overlay with that one.

Google Voice has an option you can select which will allow it to display the play button for voice mails in the call history list.

Not sure. Neither of those have an orientation overlay.

I think it's the sensor calibration. When the image is lined up with the edge if the phone, the phone is physically skewed.

Kind of. I get a Gmail for missed calls, but since I use Google Voice, and have a different phone number for that, my VMs play in Voice. The Dialer history will show a play button and the Dialer will play the message directly.

Yeah, idk about that unless it's some LinkedIn or Facebook contact photo issue.

I don't know what identicons are.

EDIT: I also have a level program called Clinometer which also shows the orientation off a little. Maybe there's an app that can alter the calibration somehow, hmmm...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] WhatzinyourphonE:
I cant download amazon. Because of the density. Is there a work around to that?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] AndroidGee209:
if you have Xposed Framework then there's a module called All Apps in Play Store. Thats the only thing i can think of.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] NoSpamDan:
Hey to add to the orientation thing, my level app has a calibration facility built in, but when it's out, it's on a fresh install with no calibration changed. I can fix it with the calibration in the app though, but that doesn't affect the camera apps orientation. That's why I'm thinking a device-level setting may fix all of them.

It's definitely weird. Maybe it's a device- specific hardware issue on my end :(

This isn't a great example, but maybe you can see what I mean. The camera reports level but the shelf is a bit crooked (couldn't resist the photo op, LOL):
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] WhatzinyourphonE:
Thanks I'll try that. I installed Amazon's app store and got it from there.

[MENTION=4559825]wantowan2[/MENTION],

By the way about "back" button.

I found that sometime it's stop working. Tipical situation (but not only this one) - when I open Google Chrome via link from other app, I can't return back with back button. It's vibrate but do nothing. But, this happened not any time, looks like floating bug.

Never over clocked before but I'm ready for my video to work looks like the stock version isn't coming.. Any warnings before attempting to use overclocked skyrocket?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] wantowan2:
Holy Toledo!

Sorry for the delay on this stock kernel version. Had a small crises.

sdcard0 stopped mounting. Anyhoo, for those who want to avoid complete hotplugging for battery and don't play media/games.

ROM -4.4.205 - STOCK
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] wantowan2:
Try a different Gov., I/O Sh combination for the cpu. I have mine at 1.72/Badass/cfq. Seems to be fine. You may need to use the sdcard speed app or whatever to increase the cache size and or the recents (long press home) to swipe away all those apps running.

Ya man!

Stock is here, however. No big deal. The kernel will boot to the same freq. as if it were stock. I included an app called no frills. I like it because it is light and has no impact on performance. In the max pull down, tap that and select whatever OC freq. above the default of 1.512Ghz. You can go to the max, but some things may cause a random reboot. Ex: some games, heavy media. The next one down from 1.78 is 1.72. This one is 98% bullet proof. Games...whatever.

There is going to be a battery hit, thats just math/heat. Just no way around that as is. The kernel does have a sysfs interface tho. I included an app called incredicontrol for one reason. It's light, adapts the sysfs functions of a given kernel automatically, is built by somebody on xda and it can control voltages. Voltages are basically the only way to temper the kernel in a way that can help with a couple things. Reduce the heat generated by the cpus because of all the extra OC cycles you just increased by. (Basically they make a cpu that can do x, then they reduce the stock max Ghz to the point that they can honestly sell a phone that can make it through the day on one charge)

So, while it is still OCed, you can cheat away some of the power going to the cpus a little bit to reduce heat and there fore battery consumption. This is getting out of scope. There are many threads on this to look at. I can say to just try this slowly. In incredicontrol, on the far right tab, right at the top left corner you will see 2 buttons that say '-' and '+' with the word 'all' in the middle. If you need/want to, tap the '-' button once or twice. This lowers all levels together down in even increments. You can tweak till the cows come home by doing each freq/voltage step differently one by one but not now. Each cpu is different so no tut. Go down to the bottom and apply. Make sure the on boot is unchecked for safety. Do whatever you do. Test with a game .... if it is stable, go back and check the on boot box. This should be the basic steps every time you change something with the cpu. Thats why they all come with the on boot option. So if you do too much and it random reboots on you, it will be at a safe level when it comes back.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] wantowan2:
Did you do what I said to see what is off? Pick an object that you will call level, like the bottom edge of a window. (if you think the calibration is off, that would also mean any app on that device will not work to calibrate for the same reason....lol) Take a pic of that with the phone in landscape. Line the edge of the phone up with that level object so that it is parallel.

Didn't you say you had a cam app that has a level indicator?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] NoSpamDan:
Thanks. Ummm, yes I have 2 camera apps with level indicators. The KitKat photo I posted previously shows a green level sensor indicator in the center (horizontal green line with a circle in the center). I took a screen shot when the indicator was aligned, not the image. Maybe that wasn't obvious. If I line up the image, the indicator shows it's out. Images lined up with the object come out fine, but I notice the phone is slightly tilted to the left in this case.

Another level tool app, Clinometer, shows the orientation is a touch off, until I run that app's calibration routine to adjust it.

So it seems that the raw orientation data on my phone is at question. Maybe my accelerometer is hosed.

Not sure if anyone else has seen this too...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Krakozawr:
[MENTION=4559825]wantowan2[/MENTION], thank you for recommendations. I'm currently at interactive/noop but I will try other.

One more question. Not a long time ago I received peeble smartwatch. And I found "floating" Bluetooth bug. In generally all work perfectly, but sometime Bluetooth spontaneously turned off himself and after this I can't turn it on back until reboot. I can't found some dependence with smartwatch activity etc. Maybe you can suggest something?

Glad you got it. Forgot that one, LOL.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] wantowan2:
So our data connection issues are straitened out now. When I get everything together I will post. "If", it is early enough in the day, I will give some notice prior. There should be enough people on a version with the updater (OTA) and because I saw a few questions about how to use it. I will upload and then we can walk through it together.

Not sure what that will look like. lol Probably just a step by step post and see if anybody has questions. Probably hold off on posting the link for a few hours so more might try the OTA.

If all goes well, maybe 7pm EST.

CIAO for now !
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mcrochip:
I had a question about the OTA updater... I'm on 4.4.215 (current version as of right now), and the OTA keeps telling me I have an update available. That update, however, is to version 4.3 (JellyBean). Is there a configuration thing I need to adjust, or is it just that there is another 'current' version out there?

Thanks.

-Steve
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] _Jax_:
I need to make something that will consistently press F5 for me starting from 6pm lol. Like homers bird when he worked from home.

CAN'T WAIT!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] wantowan2:
Yes, I noticed this right off when it was first introduced. Actually, I will spend a few minutes looking into that before I post the update.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] wantowan2:
Sorry guys, got into something here and have to fix.....

Edit: Ok, tbh, I don't know how this OTA is tracking version #'s. Make no sense to me at all. I am uploading an update to version BeanStalk-4.4.225. HOWEVER. lol

Other devices have had an issue or two. There has been a reaction to this on beanstalk git. I have had this since last night and with my testing and in particular, this OTA thing, I may have to look into this a little more. 2 reasons. While the rom seems to run ok, the OTA app seems to have caused a crash. Not a RR because I am pretty sure it's the app. Two, the git adds in the last 3 hours and the probs from other devices have made me a bit sketchy.

If you were to look on the updater or goo.im right now, I moved the older builds to a folder called 'Older versions'. I think this solves the updater seeing random stuff as updates.

So that's where I'm at. The 4.4.225 version should be up in a few minutes. I am going to flash it again right now to see if there is anything to worry about. If anybody decides to jumps ahead and flashes it via OTA, please nandroid before this one please.

I will post back in a few minutes....

Update: This pic shows it correctly. I was correct, the updater does not look into the folder and reflects the update. So everybody should see as an update available.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] NoSpamDan:
No worries, I'm sure it will be worth the wait as usual :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] wantowan2:
Hey, check your OTA for me?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Qawnman:

Edit: updates folder empty too
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] wantowan2:
Really? Try again? lol sorry, that would really confuse me.... (not hard)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Qawnman:
Still
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] wantowan2:
Ok, so the app is still a wip. You should still be able to go overview/Updates and see the update?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Qawnman:
No, still nothing in the updates tab too
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] wantowan2:
Ok, I just had a bad reaction to something and I am not comfortable posting the update tonight. Sorry for the false alarm guys. Best to let it coast for a day or 2. I am going to keep at it tonight and see.

Ok, well I took the link down but 6 of ya got it before I could! lol USE AT OWN RISK YOU 6 GUYS! lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Qawnman:
I see updates
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] NoSpamDan:
I think that was the last or current release, not the newest one, which I think was 4.4.225 as [MENTION=4559825]wantowan2[/MENTION] posted a page back... It's down for now anyway, so if you're seeing an update to 4.4.215, I would think you're running an older version than that, like 4.4.200 or 4.4.205 or something, and your update is legitimate.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] WhatzinyourphonE:
Good thing I read that. My flashing finger was itching
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Qawnman:
Yea I know I should have posted this one. I am on the latest release.

Edit: This is an old screen shot from when I took the last one about an hour ago. The OTA app is not functioning properly.

As of now, the OTA app is back to saying I'm up to date again... and these are gone from the updates tab again.

Hope this helps
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] NoSpamDan:

So I just swtiched to Tmo. and my data is only showing 3G. Looks like there is no option for LTE. The LTE tile in quick settings doesn't seem to work. Tried to toggle it and it's still OFF. Under "Mobile network settings", APN was set to T-Mobile US LTE. However, the "Prefered network type" settings only has 2 options, i.e. 2G and 3G.

Running current KK. Anyone got LTE to work/showing?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Qawnman:
This is kind of broken in the current release of kk.

To enable lte you have to go in to the dialer and enter the code posted a few pages back and enable lte there.

It is said to be fixed in the next release due out today or tomorrow though if you want to wait for that one.

Hope this helps
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] k20-:
Thanks. Just found instructions from wantowan2 on page 213. Tried it and now LTE showed. However, I've noticed my new phone number is not showing in phone status. Not sure if this is ROM or carrier related issue?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Qawnman:
My phone number shows
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] k20-:
Mine showed when I was with AT&T. I rebooted twice today and still not showing.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] wantowan2:
In the OTS settings, I recommend, unless you are having trouble, the following:

Check advanced settings

Enter the info required for the app to run.

-location of CWM or TWRP backup folder

-what/how you want to wipe. select: system, cache, dalvik. UNSELECT Data (This will preserve your settings)ReSelect data if you ARE having trouble during rom use.

-backup if you want it or not

-type of recovery

-if you want the app to be started automatically or not when the download finishes

Locate and click to start downloading the update.

When it finishes it will open the app. Go to where the download is in the app and tap the lightning bold indicating flash

For some reason it asks you what you want wipped again

confirmation

From here it SHOULD be automated.(My last test did fail at completing the whole routine)

-->boot to recovery

-->backup to desired location

-->preserve gapps

-->wipes

-->flash rom

-->reboot

The OTA is buggy, I just can't mess with it any more. It's a WIP and not mine. You will still have basic functionality. Manually checking for an update. (Recommended, take setting auto off)

Download the rom....etc.

You can still just install as usual, just look for the rom in the beanstalkota folder.

Oh ya, there IS a ROM there to use, Enjoy! lol The keen ones get it first...hehe

(oh ya, a little birdie told me. for those "Flo" users out there. there is an unsupported BeanStalk in the updater also.)

Ok, now for the less adventurous folks.... :)

ROM - 4.4.225 - OC

Oh ya, sorry, but in all the hubub I did have but forgot to put the dark boot animation in the build. ......I feel shame....

So, I tested OTA on Flo. This time I left out backup from the routine. Worked like a charm-ish....lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] WhatzinyourphonE:
My device keeps rebooting every time i try downloading it via ota
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Krakozawr:
Just installed via OTA. All perfect except one thing.

After installation I lost Tasker. Now I can't restore it with Titanium, and can't install it from APK. I found info that it maybe error because gapps and recommendation to flash gapps...

Should I do it? My Google apps like maps, gmail etc work properly...

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] k20-:
OK I did a clean flash (not OTA) and phone is now stuck in a boot loop. Is TWRP 2.6.1.0 still supported? Worked fine with the previous ROM. Anyone having the same issue?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mlkjuggalo:
As far as I know TWRP doesn't work with KitKat roms unless you use version 2.6.3.1 and the Skyrocket hasn't gotten this version yet. You will need to use the recovery in OP it flashes all KitKat roms just fine I just updated to philz_touch 6.10.3 .

edit: anyone having issues with the new update all i get is a bunch of bootloops or a strange looking screen when booting it flashes off and on and then never boots this is with both dirty and clean install I have also downloaded rom a few different times with same issue very odd on my end. I also went back to the CWM 6.0.3.7 and still same issues.

edit: So for the heck of it I went back to 1/13/14 version with clean install and no issues with install on both recoveries so I'm thinking the new update is messed up or out of all 6 downloads they are all bad and I can't see that being the issue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] WhatzinyourphonE:

I haven't Seen an rr yet however I did wake up to a phone with no recent apps so it Must have rr during the night

Lovin the new smart pull down :thumbup:

Once I'm finished backing up everything I'll give'er a go.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dsreyes1014:
Same here with the boot loop.

Downloaded from beanstockota and from the OP and same boot loop issue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] hellfreezover:
Same here - boot loop after clean wipe as well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] _Jax_:
yeahhhhh I think I'll wait instead lol

Edit: Oh god my indecisive-ness took over. aaaaaand installation aborted using OTA on philz cwm
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] nelsonmc:
Same here not using OTA . I wipe system, cache and dalvik using philz cwm and got RR ...

But not totally a waste of time ... Back up and Restore are working ...

Regards
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] NoSpamDan:
I don't see any, but you know, logcats might be useful for those RR issues. If you use CatLog from the Play Store, you can set it in Record mode in the background, and pull the log when it reboots...

If you can't boot, maybe you can use adb to pipe the logcat data to a file for linking here.

I'm sure [MENTION=4559825]wantowan2[/MENTION] would appreciate any logs!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Qawnman:
No RR here. been running all day.

On another note the blue bar on the status bar doesn't seem to go with the white theme of kk
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Justin Thought:
Downloaded and installed, no problem (so far) with any rr's.

I do a full 4-part wipe and format, then after loading the ROM only, I allow it to sit for about 10 minutes, then reboot again. As I mentioned before, that first reboot was a heart-stopping black screen for about five minutes, then up came Beanstalk. As I was waiting, I was wondering just what was going on behind that boot--hmmm, maybe creating some files in the lost+found? So once it was up, I checked, and sure enough there was less space in system than there should have been--I went in and found 691mb in 3,635 files, which I deleted before I finished my setup.

And--knock wood!--it's just running buttery smooth.

Thanks, Wantowan2!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Qawnman:
just got a SOD. (on latest release)

tried power button a few times, then the device reset.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] _Jax_:
Where exactly did you find all that used up space?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Andrw0830:
I use catlog but when I was able to induce a reboot, the log was empty thus I couldn't post it. I know I could use adb, but my phone's connection to my pc is intermittent.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] NoSpamDan:
Yeah, I'm thinking that adb through a computer is probably best for the reboot condition, as it continues to write log data to the specified file until you stop it (or an RR does, lol)...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Krakozawr:
Can confirm that OTA had killed my Gapps. I had reflashed this and now all OK.

No other issues, ROM works smooth and errorless.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] nelsonmc:
Using OTA , did you wipe data ?

I saw other message talking about a full wipe ( data, system, cache and dalvik) .

The problem with that is to wait Google re install all the apps.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Krakozawr:
no. I did not wiped DATAA, it's should be preserve gapps but not.

I reflashed GAPPS it and all working good for me now.
