Won't flash (Status 7)

Hey, I'm trying to flash this on a T989 and I keep getting the status 7 error. I even tried editing the updater-script to remove the asserts and I still get it. Any help would be much appreciated - I'm not sure what I've missed.

I've rooted it, got to JB stock, TWRP. All the nice stuff

Overheat and battery drains

Had this ROM on my T-Mo USA SG2 for 2 days and experienced several issues:

1. Phone tends to overheat for several times.

2. The battery drains too fast, a full charge goes away in 3 hrs especially when overheating. Maybe due to chip overheat.

3. Holo Launcher and Launcher 3 kept saying "Unfortunately stopped". Same for several other apps but only happened once.

4. Unexpected shutdown for 3 times.

Last is not issue, just don't like the Kitkat stock camera, very limited options and not easy to use as before. Will search for the JB stock cam. Anybody has a link?

Truly appreciate the ROM maker's work which made Kitkat available on SG2.

But not forgotten. I don't know if it's a good or bad thing, but this four month old ROM is still the champion. After a roller coaster ride the last three months of trying more ROMs than I can count and pledging allegiances only to have my phone give me the proverbial middle finger later, it's time to start running from the past. Only three KK ROMs have been truly satisfactory for me since day one: unreleased CM11 linaro by @CI3Kener, Carbon to some extent (until updates were becoming an issue), and this ROM. Things have gotten so bad I swore off KK a couple of times and reverted back to JB. I have flip flopped more times than a politician!

This ROM may be old by android 4.4 standards, but it's still great. Before suggestions get thrown out there, I have tried just about everything offered, believe me. Fixes that were coming months ago are still being promised. Well hold your breath and see what happens (write your will first though). The phone is old and CM isn't coming to the rescue with fixes either. We have a lot of great devs trying their best to deliver solid ROMs but bugs keep coming up no matter how often the updates come or new ones get released. Maybe a lot of it has to do with new commits that are not friendly to our phone, IDK. Soupy is done with us but on the bright side I will not have to spend any more time on this device which has gotten to a level that I don't want to tell too many people about, put it that way.

So I've read through the thread about the issue with the camera causing the phone to reboot and I'm still a little confused on whats wrong with it as no one else is seaming to have the issue I am which is a problem with when you take a picture with the flash on it reboots the phone anyone else with this issue or anyone with a soulution?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ArtfulDodger:
Yes, use the gallery2.apk fix mentioned in this thread. It's probably going to have to be a permanent solution for KK users as in all likelihood CM will not have a camera apk that's going to work on this phone for video recording.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] monkeybuttons:
He's talking about the flash reboot problem on low battery. That issue has been around since at least android 4.3 with no solution in sight. Sorry.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ArtfulDodger:
OK I misunderstood then. I guess it's a good thing I seldom use the camera so I don't have to deal with extra crap like that.

Just wanted to say about a week after coming back to this ROM I remembered another thing I love about it, maybe my favorite thing. I can listen to music while using any other app and not have the audio break up and skip while the other apps open. That is probably the most annoying thing I have had to endure with every single ROM I have ever used. Whatever [MENTION=5307816]soupysoup[/MENTION] did to make this, he made it the most efficient and RAM friendly OS we have. JB or KK. I think it's worth noting he still owned this phone when he made it as well. I think many other ROMs have fallen a bit short because either they are automated Nightlies that have all devices in mind, or the dev making the ROM doesn't own the device and depending on user feedback (which is very hit or miss here and on G+). This is not a slight on others work, as I'm sure all these folks are spending a lot of time and effort to make this phone better. It's just an observation I have made after testing so many ROMs. Make of it what you will, good, bad or indifference.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ArtfulDodger:
The End Is Here/Back To The Beginning

I guess there are only three people left in this thread anymore: me, myself and I. Anywho...this was one of the first KK ROMs I used about a week after I got this phone. It will now be the last. It's been a wild four month journey trying this, trying that. Loving something one day, hating it the next. Or the next week. You know what I found out after trying all this stuff? If it ain't broke, don't fix it! Old adage but oh so timeless & true. Must be a reason I keep going back to this. Now I know.

Check the screenshots. Yeah I think I'm gonna be OK folks. I will note some extras are added such as Chet's January UBER kernel build, OKJ, Greenify Donation, Cron scripts and CPU Tuner. It all works together like a well oiled machine. Goodluck you self-confessed ROM addicts, this one has joined RA: Rom-A-Holics Anonymous. It's that or there will be a new "brick" to throw out the window.

BTW one more thing. Only an hour after the battery was at 10% in this screenshot, it's now at 75% on AC charge. So that means I can go from 0 to 100% charged in around 100 minutes. Fastest charge I have been able to get.

Gotta love Art lol! I'm running the ported Beanstalk right now and working on battery life as we speak. The PAC build was amazing with battery and no custom kernel. On the first 2-3 days I would get 23-24 hours.

[MENTION=4551715]suaverc118[/MENTION] if you ever quit flashing ROMs you will have massive withdrawals worse than an alcoholic!

You know what though, if you're enjoying it that's all that matters. This device has its limits and when you're spending several hours every weekend on this stuff like I was to no avail and getting frustrated like I was, I knew I had to find the finish line.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] raptor170:
Think ur def right if it ain't broke don't fix it. Think I was just getting the itch to flash but don't think anything compares to this sweet ROM. Went from flashing weekly until this ROM which I've been on the past 3 to 4 months kinda lost track how long lol

For some reason, this ROM is having a problem with deep sleep for me. I tried other ROMs and their deep sleep has working just fine. This ROM seems to be working pretty well with everything working pretty nicely. But having the vbus wakelock stopping the deep sleep is quite a problem for my battery life.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ArtfulDodger:
This Rom has a wakeblock setting. Go to settings/Beanstalk/General. I would research whether or not it's safe to do that for what you're talking about first before turning that on.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] nomoney4me:
Well from my understanding of vbus wakelock, this occurs when the phone detects the charging cable as being not OEM. I ran the test with some other cables and it seemed that the vbus wakelock will occur with certain charging cables that I have. However, this same cable that I have been using with AOKP KK and LiquidSmooth did not generate the vbus wakelock but it does with this ROM. That's why I raised up the issue to see if the OP can look into it when he have time.

New UBER Sabermod 4.4 Kernel

Chet has a new kernel release for us 4.4 users. I've been using it since yesterday with no issues. Very smooth. No battery difference here but there is definitely way more free RAM than before. Be aware this has Dynamic Fsync which may or may not cause data loss if your device crashes. So use at your own risk and since this isn't my work I can offer no support. You can head over to G+ for that: https://plus.google.com/104384867235711140238/posts/9E6UvU5TohD

I strongly suggest being conservative with your settings and not OC past 1.6.

Kernel link: http://d-h.st/tCv
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] raptor170:
I'm running 1.8 on the beanstalk kernel, would there be a noticeable loss in performance running 1.6 on this new kernel, the free up of ram is really a big plus here tho
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ArtfulDodger:
Honestly OC is not that big a factor in speed, least in my experience. That's what I choose not to kill my CPU running it hard on max. The higher the OC the bigger the risk of RR during peak performance times. You won't see much difference in stock 1.5 max or 1.8 IMHO. In fact using CPU Tuner I underclock at 864 when the screen is off and 1.4 when the battery gets below 20-25%. When the screen is on the setting is 384 min, 1674 max.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] nomoney4me:
My CPU is only at 1.5 so OC is not the reason for the wakelock. I also don't see why I have to reboot my phone after I finish charging everytime to clear that wakelock. It's one of the reason why I am thinking of moving to another ROM.

Running AOKP. I have a camera that is flashable zip, I've installed a camera(4.2 photosphere) before and it's given me two camera apps. Once I've installed this new camera how could I delete the default camera that came with the ROM and keep the one I flashed?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xBeerdroiDx:
Remove it from system/apps
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Lumixz:
I would keep both. The original (without photosphere) is probably an updated version with more features. Also I believe the camera app with photosphere crashes when it focuses while taking normal pictures. Although that may depend on the ROM you are running or the apk you installed. In any case, it may just be easier to hide the app from your app drawer rather than removing it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xBeerdroiDx:
copy the original apk to a location like your micro sd card then delete it from system/apps. the 4.2 camera has great features and worked well for me without crashes as long as the scene mode was set to action. there was no difference in picture quality between the 2.

in the event you want to revert, delete the new camera and copy the original back.

My dock had worked fine when i initiallygot my tablet, however the docked tablet now only charges to 93 percent. Looking at the battery app it shows that the tablet charges and discharges around the 93% figure. I initially thought this was due to the fact that the battery in the tablet was getting older or needed calibrating. Plugging just the tablet on to the charger allows the tablet to become fully charged. Any ideas ?

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] holyherbiness:
This is the story of my AT&T Samsung Galaxy S4. Brand new woo hoo! Got it two weeks ago or so.

I was outside and the battery drained to zero (which i've never let it do before). I went home and plugged it into the charger. Doesn't charge. No led or anything. just blank.

Now the phone doesn't turn on. I went to ATT DSC (Device service center), and they said it was a battery issue. I tried somebody else's s4 battery that had a 75% charge. I got a grey battery icon with a stuck circle on it. Then it black screens. Phone refuses to turn on. So it's not a battery issue and technician is a moron.

When I put in a battery, sometimes the LED flash on the camera will stay lit for a few seconds, but no matter what i do or what combination of buttons (power + volume up, etc etc) the phone will not turn on. Sometimes when I plug in the phone for a few hours, the phone gets incredibly hot but still won't turn on.

Tried the samsung charger and cable with half a dozen outlets and computer usbs..

And the phone is completely stock. No ROMS, no nothing. Never dropped it, never submersed in water either. I've always taken great care of my phones.

I went from an iphone 5 to this. I was so ecstatic - like an upgrade in most ways! I've had iPhones for 3 years now, but wanted to try android. Guess the Apple powers that be have punished me for my treachery... Never had a single hardware related problem with them, but two weeks of getting this new phone? DEAD.

Now I've gotta wait for my replacement REFURBISHED phone to come in the mail. Nothing like paying for a new phone and getting a refurbished one two weeks later that may crap out again because it's shoddily repaired by some AT&T gnome. Thank goodness I paid like 7 dollars for it initially through my haggling skills.

I'm sure people here will call me a liar. They'll point to the fact that I have zero posts. (I have multiple forum accounts with a thousand posts). Tell me that I'm hiding some kind of physical/water damage. Maybe they'll say that I bricked it from flashing a ROM, or that i'm some kind of apple lover. I am not. I'm just letting you know that my particular experience with this phone is that it's durability and quality control blows. TWO WEEKS.

Basically the phone is dead. I've lost all the data and apps/customization i had. Not to mention the photos from a wedding I just went to.

Anyway, here's my question:

What can I do to back up the contents of the phone at regular intervals? Say, things like app data, texts, etc. etc. Should I use Samsung's bloatware?

Thanks for listening to my rant...

3 to 5 percent of any electronic devices have malfunctions, You've just became the unlucky one, that happens. I just don't understand why ATT doesn't give You new device, there should be something like warranty I think. Also I don't know why anyone would call You liar as I'm sure that each one of us have seen faulty device.

Hey All,

I'm having a pretty frustrating experience setting up an email client to work with my mailhost.

I can connect to my imap host for the business of incoming email, but I cannot get either the stock android email app, or the current version of k9, to connect to the outgoing smtp server using all of the available authentication/ssl options/port combinations.

Fwiw, I'm running the current, stock JB ROM, rooted. Also, fwiw, these smtp settings also do not work on my JB-based Asus t300, but work just fine on my stock, ICS, HTC Rezound.

Is this a known problem with JB ROMs? Is there a known work around?

Many thanks!

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheAltruistic:
SMTP works fine for me both on my 100% stock Nexus 7 and on my CM 10.1 Nexus 10. I use it to connect to my school's SMTP email (they only use their email for all school/official/professor-student communications :(). I don't have any issues.

When I first set up my SMTP connection though, I had to mess around with the certificates as they didn't match what the FAQ and How-To guides the school told me. For example, they told me to use SSL and accept all certificates for incoming, but when I do that my client won't sync correctly so I have to select SSL (without accepting all certificates). Give that a shot?

Also, no offense but even I've made this mistake many times ;), double check your host names, I always misplace the periods and which is outgoing host and incoming hosts.

Good luck! :highfive:

Edit: added more info.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jrredho:
Thanks so much for your suggestions for me on my little problem. It caused me to revisit it with a more global outlook.

What I learned? The problem had nothing to do with the Email apps, or the version of Android. It had to do with the fact that I was trying to connect via my VPN hosts. My two JB devices are WiFi only, and I always use the VPN app when I'm on them. Almost never from my phone.

Now all I have to do now is figure out the reason my isp's mail host is blocking my SMTP connections from my VPN hosts and I'll be set... :)

Thanks again!

John
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jrredho:
I thought I'd touch base to say that this problem has now been 100% solved.

It actually had nothing to do with my ISP. My VPN provider blocks outgoing SMTP connections by default. I'm in the process of getting my ISP's SMTP host whitelisted by the VPN provider.

Thanks to everyone who looked at my question, and to the person who offered up his thoughts!

cheers,
