[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] wantowan2:
Hey thanks guys, for all the feedback. I've been like a dog with a bone with this rom and getting it totally sorted I have missed some of the more obvious things like mms. ??? How did that one get by me? I personally have always just opted for the 'HangOuts" option on setup. I was checking out the stats over the last 4 months and while its hard to say for sure, I think I have flashed over 400 versions of this prior to this release. Only 3 weeks ago, I fixed-compiled-flashed-tested X 22 roms one day. All over one issue. lol I had to stop because my battery was dead and the phone was white hot. 0-o

When approaching this rom, you would have to take a lot into account when thinking about compatibility. These MSM devices are really hybrid roms, even compared to , say, the Nexus versions of this same rom. Those were pretty easy to do. I compiled an early version 5 for my flo in an hour. Omni had most of that done. For our phone the pieces had to come from anywhere and everywhere. Even Omni isn't pure AOSP (Google). It has become it's own flavor. So neither CM/Slim/Aokp etc. nor pure AOSP parts fit exactly. So normally you go out and find source for your custom rom. While this worked ok for a lot of the DU devices and when they had an issue they could go to the Omni gerrit for patches for issues that naturally occurred there too. But there is no skyrocket/exhilarate/t769/Hercules Omni. So our problems were original as well so no patches.

As far as the one question there as to my source for these devices and Omni. All of my stuff went directly to the DU gerrit for review then to the DU github. It has caught on in the Omni gerrit. Many of our patches have made it to Omni's getting for review. I have chatted briefly with one dev in particular so an OmniRom/msm8660 rom is going to pop up somewhere.

So, we have a bit of a tug of war for compatibility. While the kernel is CM built inline with this rom, the system apps and settings are basically half and half. CM/AOSP-Omni. Sorting out what works for you guys will have to be a trial and error process like it has been with me all along.

On top of all that, Omni has a TWRP based recovery of all things. AAAAHHHH! lol What a pain.

Blah, blah, blah.... listen to me go on. The upshot is that I am still going crazy with this thing so I hope to pop out a few updates fairly quickly. I have the bugs plus a few key features that are not there yet like ScreenRecord, Advanced Settings, Connection manager with proper LTE/4G/3G choices with bandwidth saving settings and features. I have had all of these working in the last month (!!!) but because the newer devices have native support, they fell out of line with the main DU source within a week. (So when time permits, I will prepare and push these to our own source for these features)(sshhhh)

Advanced settings (Device Specific) Done, see pic below. Here is a gif demo for ScreenRecord that I did for BeanStalk. That's it, in action and it's coming....

thanks want2wan.. A lot of hard work there you been doing... Ill flash it as soon a new release comes out.. Keep it up. good luck.

Hi [MENTION=4559825]wantowan2[/MENTION], solid work as usual. I don't know what bug list you are talking about lol this is the best freaking kitkat ROM for our device. am happy the moment bluetooth worked - this ROM is flawless with bluetooth connectivity so far. So thanks a ton for your hard work!

And USB mass storage - never thought that it was even possible. works seamlessly.

not a concern at all, but noticed it: AdAway does not stick a reboot. I had to apply each time after reboot. not sure if there is an easy fix for that. it works fine in beanstalk though. Definitely i can live with this. Just adding this issue to the known issues list.

One more to add to the known issues list: torch under quick settings does not work.

Nice, I have been waiting for this to come out.

Keep up the great work [MENTION=4559825]wantowan2[/MENTION]
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] SoCalHTCFuze:
Bluetooth streaming does occasionally fail while in use, causing Bluetooth to crash, disconnect, and continue playing through the speaker... This would usually require a reboot to recover Bluetooth connectivity on CM ...However, it recovers gracefully in about 30 seconds or so by reconnecting to the device and continuing playback without skipping a beat. And for that, I applaud the fix in place today. Lemme know if you need a log cat on it... I'm usually driving when it happens so I haven't grabbed it to date.

First install of DU I did with philz recovery and had problem with random reboots. I switched to twrp and did wipes and reinstalled clean, now everything seems to work great! Awesome Rom. Great work wantowan2. Thanks. This is the only KitKat Rom that I've tried where btw works flawlessly!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] NoSpamDan:
For everyone's benefit, please provide some further information, like what version of PhilZ, TWRP you used.

I have had flashes mess up like that, and simply re-flashing with the same recovery took care of it. I am using PhilZ exclusively for everything now, and idk if PhilZ 6.01.4 mentioned in the OP was an actual version or not. It's now up to 6.19.3, and PhilZ has been a machine about updating it and getting the kinks out.

The only issues I've had with PhilZ is that sometimes a zip version seems like it is corrupted and won't take. For that, I'll push the md5 version with Odin...

Sorry [MENTION=4559825]wantowan2[/MENTION], I know this isn't PhilZ thread... ;)

I use cwm 6.0.4.3 i think its want2wan rwcovwry correct me if am wrong i also use this to flash cm 11. Even though they say to use 6.0.3.7 so far it works....

Weird thing happened: when I hang up after phone call, Apollo launches and plays song?? I'm using BT and it works great, best ever.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Andrw0830:
Did you have music playing before you had the phone call because Apollo will continue playing music after the phone call? It does sound odd if it plays randomly, but so far for me it does work great!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] drewfs7270:
I had Apollo turned off, but I had been listening to Podkicker Pro, but I had it on pause. I made my call and when I hung up, Apollo stayed playing. I turned Apollo back off and started podkicker again. I listened to that for awhile, then paused it and made another call. This time I could hear the program I was listening to on Podkicker in the background. When I finished my call I couldn't stop Podkicker and had to reboot? Weird. Now it's working again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Andrw0830:
Yeah that is weird but maybe it just needed a reboot. Maybe try playing music through Apollo and pause to make a call and see if it does the same thing. If you have to, try force close Apollo from Applications and see if it makes a difference.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] raptorddd:
Guys how long it takes to boot into system for the first boot?? Mine was in the 15 or more minutes so I reflashed with philz cwm on the op page and samething..?? Does it take that long? Its the new night lies that I downloaded I went back to stock 4.1.2 and flash cm11 3-6-2014 and it just takes to long . must I wait if so how long? I just flashed older cm 11 from 27 I think I'll give it a try and update info..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] IcECo0L:
Mine took less than 10 minutes. I tried switching to ART once and it didn't boot
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] raptorddd:
I just tried with old cm feom last moth. Something it stayed for 21 mins with the colored dots flying. Its too much.. So I reflash to latest cm again

.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] wvhellbilly333:
Wait...I'm confused... Is there a nightly build for DU or are you flashing CM then dirty flashing DU on top of it...or are you flashing CM to compare boot times between the two ROM's...just curious... *scratching head*

Sent from my Blackened Beanstalk Skyrocket...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] raptorddd:
Ok i got it..as far as i know du could be calleda nightly its the first release and it has bugs.

Maybe i didnt make myselef clear.

I always go back to stock rom 4.1.2 official

Then flash cm11 nightly released on the 6th .

Factory reset

Wipe cache partition

Format system

Clean dalvik cache

Install cm thwn gapps

Same procedure for du. Oncw i boot into cm11

Factory reset -

-----

----

Then du rom and gapps. Done

I always like a clean install.

My proem was solved . sorry i never check mdsums. So i resownloaded the rom and it takes less than 5 mins to boot into phone...

I thought new cm was the cause mine didnt want to boot

.so afyer redownload it worked.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] NoSpamDan:
If you're not wiping /data it's not a clean install, it's a dirty flash. Maybe you don't know, but a factory reset doesn't do this.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] raptorddd:
In cwm says wipe data factory reset???
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] NoSpamDan:
Oh, I actually meant format /data, but you are correct that a factory reset and wiping data in cwm should accomplish the same thing.

I have heard in the past about files remaining in the /data partition even after a factory reset, possibly due to broken permissions, so I always format /data to be sure it's clean.

Personal preference I guess. :)

Hi wantowan2!

I'm use beanstalk. But I have Bluetooth issues :) what will be your suggestion for me - BS or this your DU? Thanks for your opinion in advance :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Andrw0830:
I know you asked for wantowan2's opinion, but being on this for awhile, I would recommend DU because I have had no Bluetooth issues so far and so far other people have had little issues as well.

[MENTION=4559825]wantowan2[/MENTION], So far so good on the new update! The messaging app is now fixed and the kernel tweaker is awesome with it telling me I am achieving long deep sleep.:D Thanks again!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] hellfreezover:
Just flashed over Beanstalk, I get to the lock screen and a message that the process com.andrroid.phone has stopped, then the phone reboots...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mimart7:
You should do a complete wipe if you are coming over from a different rom. Even if it is the same dev.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] hellfreezover:
I thought I could get away with wiping cache & system only... - been doing it for quite some time from various roms and it was o.k (as long as they are CM based)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Andrw0830:
I used to do that too and it seemed to work with some roms and not others. Unfortunately you will need to do a complete clean flash this time. Just make a nandroid backup that way you can just switch back and forth if you don't like something.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] hellfreezover:
thanks.. already on it ;)

Edit:

BTW:

After finishing all my restores...

I am missing the Whether widget on lockscreen and couldn't find the theme changer, maybe I'm to tired...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] _Jax_:
So the ONLY glitch that I come across is mobile signal bars disappearing but there is still a signal. Even the LTE shows up just no visual bars.

I can recreate it by switching any setting that causes a "reboot" of the status bar

Not a full soft reboot just the status bar disappearing a reappearing.

Example: Enable slim recents. Causes that mini reboot and the signals are gone. A soft reboot brings them back. Like I said though, there is still a mobile signal just no visual representation.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] raptorddd:
[MENTION=219946]Andrew[/MENTION] it does not record videos...at all i get picture on 1080 but screen its mostly yellow orange and so other colors. Of thw roms that had vidwo rwcording working lets you use mp4 or the other format hg 4.

Walelocks have no effect . cant get rid of rilj. No matter what its always on i did the airplane phone off. Reboot and airplane off no effect no soft or hotreboot its always there
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] NoSpamDan:
1080p recording has been problematic on the SR as well as other devices on KitKat. Try 720p. That has always worked for me.

As far as your rilj wake lock, what radio are you using? If it's UCMC1 or UXMA7, you might try reflashing it. If not, try one of those.

EDIT: I had the incorrect Rogers radio, UXMA7 is the correct one. Fixed above.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] wantowan2:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Andrw0830:
Like [MENTION=4435460]NoSpamDan[/MENTION] mentioned, it is just 1080p that will not record as so far no 4.4 KitKat rom's will record 1080p videos with the stock camera. If you select 720p and restart the app, it will work.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] raptorddd:
Well not really on the 4.3 it worked ok. I tried a kitkat rom and it worked. Seems to me its the camera app. Cant record anything at all i get cant play tthis video under 720 and 480 . on1080 it plays but all its orange or yellow just color no images. But i used the lg camera and it works. In 1080, if i use format mpeg4. Or h.264.

On the radio issue. I use umc1 stock feom official

I download it the mohans umc1 no csc and no rilj twice without cable plug in. Actually didt it 2times between reboots samething.... I dont know what radio to use since am in mexico. On the 4.3 version wakelocker would stop it. Cant on this one had to use wakelock terminator.. So should i try thw rogers one?? Or is it better umc1?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] raptorddd:
This is for wan2want the apps you provide like xpu frills and sd speed arent they the same tweaks that werw on 4.3 did you provide this to make sure settings stick. But once the rom bugs are fixed we dont need this apps right? Also torch on the titles do not work
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] _Jax_:
You can get rid of them if you want. The new kernel tweaker will take care of no fills and theres an SD read ahead value in settings as well. I don't remember if its kernel tweaker too but its there.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Andrw0830:
I noticed Kernel Tweaker has the adjustments for CPU Clock, but can you set it so it applies on boot?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] _Jax_:
Yes sir. Put a check mark and then I think you can review ur set on boot settings

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] wantowan2:
You just have to go into device specific/sensors/and toggle 'Enable Keys Backlight' on and off. I currently don't know why the default 'off' is not being met. I set it up correctly but there might be some other button setting bumping it back on....

Oh ya, just so you guys know, the only real reason I included xposed installer is to allow enabling the BetterBatteryStats perm fix that I also included. BBS is still a bit buggy but works now with this applied.

xposed installer

click the red to update the framework

tap the pull down and select 'Modules'

see the included BBS mod and check the box

Reboot

If you have BBS backups, titanium BU

tap BBS

wipe data

restore data

I don't know if you have included version BBSv1.15 - if installed as system app (there is an option under Advanced in BBS). I usually flash BBSv1.15 after flashing your ROMs so I missed noticing what version is shipped with the ROM (I think it was v1.14).

Am using facebook app when i scroll down i see double images.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] wantowan2:
I would recommend 'Badass' or 'Lionheart'. Badass in particular because of it's sophistication. It can keep up but it's still got conservative qualities. It imposes a kind of second look or a brief hesitation when it gets hit with demand. This way it makes sure the demand is the real deal and not some random spike out to burn battery. Best of both really.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] wantowan2:
No worries. This rom is so jam packed it make take some time to remember it all. I don't have it all down and I am 3 weeks ahead of everybody else. lol (duh) That sounds like an early quit call from the back button. Do you have (under hardware keys) the back button/long press set to kill all/app? This setting shows up in 2 places. ROMControl/General and ROMControl/Softkeys.

Try unsetting this and see if it helps. If it does then we need to adjust the long press duration.

**quiet" =-p lol

Quiet is a good sign I guess. Glad to hear that it's working out for people. Right from when I started working on it I realized that this rom is a different breed of cat. It took some getting used to. There is sooo much original code and unique (but cool actually) ways of implementing the various features into a Skyrocket specific device overlay. Normally a feature is there or not based on a given device. If it isn't appropriate it just doesn't get included or the compile fails for lack of logic. With DU, it is often, just a case of writing a small string in the vendor device file '.config'(weird) stating that you want it to be included. (very smart coding) Or, as in the above case, the long press duration that may be fine for another device is too short for ours.
