Yes. Deep Sleep is a paid add-on...

Seriously, try it with just the ROM, no GApps. Don't put your account setup in or restore ANY apps at first. It can take quite a while for Google/App activity to settle down after a fresh flash.

See my "Reporting Issues" details in Post 2.

I think it is likely a Google thing, restoring data, etc. Try this:

Full wipe and flash only the ROM. Let it sit and check Deep Sleep after a half hour or so. This will rule out an app causing it.

A. If it sleeps, try a flash with GApps, and no account setup or restored apps, and see if you're getting to Deep Sleep. If not, you have your culprit: GApps.

B. If it doesn't sleep, try the 8.6.1 weekly and repeat step 1.

Once you know it will sleep with GApps, try adding your Google account setup and check again for Deep Sleep. Phones will not typically sleep while restoring your Google account.

The more details, the better! What version of GApps are you using? Stable 8.0 ROM?

Hope this helps...

Sleeping like a baby here on v8.6.1 weekly and GApps beta v310:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Phatboyj420:
Rom= 8.0 Stable

Gapps= Slim Build 8 282 full

Will try with your suggestions

What apps do you use for lock screen notifs.?

and is their an app that replicates the Peek feature From PA

Thanks for reply
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] _Jax_:
I'd suggest AcDisplay and turn on Active mode. In my opinion, its better than peek and looks better too.

Fixed My DeepSleep issue!

I simply performed a factory recet via TWRP let the rom Load Skipped the initial Google loggin "as You suggested"

Then I rebooted, let it sit for 10Min, signed into Google through playstore, and installed

Kernel Tweaker

Then I rebooted again waited about 10Min then checked in Kernel Tweaker and voila DeepSleep had been used.

Last I booted into TWRP and Restored only Data from my last backup Booted and waited another 10Min, and checked again that DeepSleep was functional

Thanks again for you Suggestions

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] NoSpamDan:
Glad you got it sorted out. :D

Be careful with restoring System items, even across versions of the same ROM. Although you might be okay initially, you could end up with problems down the road.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Phatboyj420:
You are right I actually only restored Data "sorry not sure why a typed system and Data"

Also while looking through the Gapps updater-script I Realized that I didn't delete the /system/app/provision.apk when I packaged the Gapps into your Rom

So I think maybe that was the actual culprit, had it not been for your suggestions I might have never found it Thanks again
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] NoSpamDan:
The lock screen notifications are being worked on for Slim right now. It looks like "L" will have them natively, but for KitKat 4.4.4, the hope is to get them before the last stable build of SlimKat.

:cool:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Phatboyj420:
I made the switch to 8.6.1 and I'm loving it.

The bluetooth fixes are greatly appreciated, as before while listening to play music in the car I would get a stutter, or blip every 20,secnds. or so

Now it plays through car B-tooth steadily with no problems.

WallPaper Request

I Would Love to see an option for, " No-Wallpaper "

Leaving it with an all pitch-black background.

Of-course their are other ways to reach the desired effect but it would be nice to have the option built in to the rom's wallpaper app

Thanks in advance

Fyi

I tried to update to the latest 8.12.1 clean install with and without Gapps on two separate Rockets "mine & wifey's"

I could not receive calls on either.

I could receive the voicemail of the call i could not receive.

Text-MMS function proper

everything else worked proper

The only other improper function was that

when trying to end a call "with the Hang-Up Button" it would stay on the call saying hanging up for almost two minutes

After trying everything I could think of to remedy

I tried the 8.12 update instead

this gave the exact same results as above.

So for now

I'm back to 8.6.1 fully functional

This is not a complaint by any means I just wanted to share my experience

I would greatly appreciate any feedback you might offer to get me up to date as I am very happy with slim and your work

Thanks in Advance
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] NoSpamDan:
You know I'm going to ask...

Logs?

Clean flash?

What radio?

What GApps package?

Please refer to post 2 and clean flash ROM only and test. If it fails, please submit a Slim bugreport in a new thread on the linked Slim Skyrocket support forum.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Phatboyj420:
Sorry Boss

will provide logs when I get time to try again

it was a clean flash after full wipes, I tried with and without Gapps

Gapps= latest Slim: Slim_full_gapps.4.4.4.build.8.x-282

Radio= UCMC1

Other ?s for any with knowledge

Is there an easy way to make screen go off on proximity?

Thank You Kindly "Slim"

Edit2:

? [MENTION=4435460]NoSpamDan[/MENTION]

is fsync disabled in slim?

if so how to enable

Reason asked

any time phone reboots "random only" I loose any files touched in that session

examples

if I copy a file from one folder to another the random after reboot both the file copied and the copied to file are zeroed out

taking pics

take a few pics then random all pics from that session zeroed out

Am I right in thinking that fsync's function is to prevent this or

is it something altogether different

My thinking is derived from being able to enable/disable fsync on my tf-101 Tablet "The OG-Transformer"

Please inform,

any & all thoughts welcomed

Thanks "Slim"
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] NoSpamDan:
"Boss" haha. Good one :P

You are also getting random reboots? So really, it sounds like random reboots are causing image corruption... Is this on both phones, or just one of them?

Did you download the ROM and copy it to both devices, or were they independently downloaded? You didn't say, but did you verify that the SHA1 hash for your copy of the 8.12.1 weekly matched the one on the SlimROMs site? (sha1 ef9132f02714d1e1e440a29652fd18afe1a9ed26)

Full wipe, including Factory Reset (wipe /data)? Not just /system, /dalvik and /cache. Oh, and no apps restored from backup...

From what I understand, the kernel handles fsync functionality, if present. I honestly don't know off hand if it is implemented or not. I know there's a system variable that might be able to be exposed in a terminal to see what the value is, but I'm not sure what the absolute path would be. Regardless, fsync doesn't ensure the files are saved to storage properly, just that the data is written from the I/O buffer. I'm no expert on it, but I know it's not fool-proof when all h*ll breaks loose.

From your description, it sounds like you could have corruption among your stored images. What file browser are you using? Are your images saved to your Internal or External SD card by default?

The more info, the better. When you can, start up a thread with logs over on SlimROMs.net and we'll see what can be done. :cool:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Phatboyj420:
Just to be clear the random reboots I was experiencing are on 8.6.1 and they usually only happen when the batt is 30% or lower and trying to take pics with flash enabled.

I'm actually in the process now of trying the 8.12.1 again and yes I always verify sha1

I use windows command utility: Microsoft File Checksum Integrity Verifier AKA "FCIV"

I simply place fciv.exe in system32 folder then run command window

type fciv -both hit space then drag the file into the command window and hit enter

it spits out the sha1 & md5 of the file if sha1 matches I then copy the md5 to check against in android via file explorer

well here is where I stand now

Did full wipe system/data/dalvick/cache/factory reset/

flashed 8.12.1

flashed ucmc1 x2

booted let sit 30min

reboot let sit 10min

I did not enter a google acc or anything simply what is stated above

then I placed a call to my other phone ( on 8.6.1 fully functional ) call went through but would not hang up until ended from other phone (8.6.1 Phone called )

then I tried to recieve a call ( on the 8.12.1 updated phone ) no go it never rang or anything but it does show a voicemail a short time after the call

I get the same results on 8.12

so now I need to look into getting the bug reports to the slim site

EDIT:

bug report up and within minutes someone had already downloaded it for review

Slim is Amazing

Thanks for your guidance & understanding
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] godlessfather:
8.10 seems to be the latest without phone call or dialer issues.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Phatboyj420:
Did you have similar issues on 8.12 or8.12.1
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] godlessfather:
Exactly the same issues with both builds.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Phatboyj420:
Thanks,

that helps me to know that its not just me & mine

Trying out 8.10 NOW

EDIT:

SO Far 8.10 is a go on both, " mine & wifey's PocketRockets "

She must be satisfied, " or-else "

as always I'm looking forward to the next stable build

Thanks Slim Team
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] NoSpamDan:
Thanks. Could you possibly test this again with LTE turned off?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Phatboyj420:
Sorry bro I was late seeing this.

After further testing, I do have problems receiving calls on one of my two rockets on 8.10

with lte turned off.

Is that what you were asking for, or were you wanting more testing on 8.12?

I just read your reply in the Slim Forum about 8.14 so Im fixing to give it a go

but the problem with 8.10---8.12.1 has to be more than just an audio bug "don't it"

I ask this because, there is no missed call notif or anything.

Plus, it's not just the fact that it doesn't ring or not being able to hear the other person but that the call doesn't come through at all, as if airplane mode is on.

I mentioned in the other forum the tasker profile remedied the problem.

What I didn't state is that it only fixes it until the phone goes into deep sleep but as long as the phone was awake calls could be received.

that work around shouldn't have worked at all I'm still baffled as to why it did

Android ? in General

I have to ask, why the redundancy of the double toggle for Mobile Network & Mobile Data if they are one in the same which I finally figured out that they are and you verified this to me aswell

I guess the irony of this is what led me to believe all along that Mobile Network was = to a Cell Radio Toggle and Mobile data was = to a sub menu toggle for 4g,3g,2g

I now, thanks to research, and yourself Know this not to be true.

However it would make far greater since if it were

I.M.O this is a cluster F*** That Android needs to be remedied of .....End of Rant!

off to DL 8.14

Thanks NoSpamDan, for all your efforts
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Phatboyj420:
I Tried out 8.14 overnight it still has the exact same call receive problem as well as, when dialing out the dialer hangs on hangup until the other party hangs up so if you dial someone on accident you cannot abort the call.

I have some appointments to get to today but I will get you some bug reports later this evening

Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] NoSpamDan:
You didn't say exactly, but out of curiosity, was the phone face-up or face-down while testing?

Also, this was with LTE on or off?

Thanks for helping out!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] NoSpamDan:
OK, anyone having issues with receiving or hanging up calls, please test this build out, posted in the Slim Skyrocket forum:

http://forum.slimroms.net/topic/3144-8121-not-receiving-calls-hangs-on-hangup-bug-report/#entry15387

If this build fixes the issues for you, please mention that here.

If you still have issues with this build, please start a new thread in the Slim Skyrocket support forum, and include your Slim bugreport in that thread... see Post #2 for details.

Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Phatboyj420:
Face up but I did think to toggle the mute on flip toggle and it didn't make a difference also tried toggling lte on all build 8.10-8.14 only one this made a difference on was 8.10

I will try your test build and report accordingly
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] NoSpamDan:
Do you by chance use SIP calling (a.k.a. VOIP)? You may already know, but that requires a data connection to function, and will not work with mobile data turned off... ;)

New test build with fixes for Qualcomm RIL is posted here:

http://forum.slimroms.net/topic/314...-hangs-on-hangup-bug-report/page-2#entry15414

I'm hoping to get this wrapped up before any final stable builds of KitKat are build, or else the 8.10 weekly will be the last one...

If you have success hanging up placed calls and also are able to receive incoming calls properly, please mention it here. Else, please open a new thread/topic at the SlimROMs support forum linked in Post #2.

Thanks

EDIT: This new test build has been confirmed to have fixed calling behavior! It also has the new call proximity sensor features...

Bug Search Button remapping

Thank you very much for your roms, just got my skyrocket back and hesitate between this roms, Beanstalk and Candyroms, the requirement i was looking was some shortcut, which i can add in the notification bar and remapping the capacitive button, my only problem's every remapping work except the seach button, which never wanted to be ramapped. It was the button i never used back in last spring. I wanted to remap the button to open 3 app depending of what i was doing on it. Obviously, but Candyrom and Slimkat don't let remap this one. On the other roms which got something similar but not as complet as this one, they also got problem with this one. Do you think there's a possibility to make a fix for this button ? I know you are actually working with lolipop Slimkat, so i can wait if it get fixed into lolipop. It don't matter too much atm to fix it for me because of the navigation bar shortcut and also, i remapped other button to do it. Thank for making this light and highly customized rom. :good:

SlimKat Skyrocket Stable 9 Testing

Hey folks, who would be willing to test a pre-release of Stable 9 for me? I think the weeklies have been solid, but need some input.

Looking for 2 testers. Please PM me if you can run an unofficial official release through some basic functionality testing (calls, texts, GPS, camera, playing music tracks, etc.).

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

No more testers are needed for Stable 9.

My Experience with this ROM so far.

I have removed my rather long post.

Radio, Wifi, GPS, work just fine. have not tested Bluetooth as of yet.

Got GPS Location in bad weather - GPS Time Sync successful after battery pull (January 1980 situation)

Minor GUI related issues. Switching from stock launcher introduced lag in every other launcher (even if kept in memory as a system app)

Launcher/Homescreen before Lockscreen issue can be found here. (after dalvik/cache wipe > reboot) Note : >>> This is not just in SlimRom. It is a bug with KeyGuard app it seems.

Good for Play? Yes! Absolutely.

Looks modern and simple and plenty of customization.

Daily Driver (Dependability)? Personal Conclusion = No.

Thank you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] NoSpamDan:
Mine doesn't do this. You probably have a bad cable or phone micro-USB connection.

Afaik, the touch lights follow the screen, so if you get a notification and the screen doesn't come on, they should and will stay off. The menu text may be incorrect, but it's from the BLN (Battery Light Notifications) functionality that the CM team removed due to major issues with SODs and wakelocks. We fought to get it back but were unsuccessful, although it has been ported here and there. This has to have kernel support to function, and I've seen the same settings (whether or not they do anything) on other ROMs.

Use NoLED to light up the screen when a notification arrives.

MMS attachments require data, SMS does not. You can turn off Mobile Data and still send 160 character SMS messages, and make phone calls. These use different radio technologies and frequencies. Try it.

No offense taken here, but most if not all of this really belongs on a blog somewhere, in the Q&A thread, or in your own thread, not in a development thread.

I'm exclusively working on SlimLP now, and SlimKat Stable 9 is the last version of SlimKat.

Cheers
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] ocd_amp:
Hi Dan, There was indeed a way to have mobile data turned off, and the SMS app would then turn on MMS in order to download Voicemail or MMS messages, then turn Mobile data back off. This has been removed from newer Android versions because Google wants us to be "always connected". However I replaced the stock SMS app with Textra.

As for NoLED, I've heard of battery drain issues. I have managed to minimize battery drain by completely turning off Location, Sync, Wifi, and set the radio to 2G, and now the battery is lasting much longer. Only dropped 6% over night over a 7 hour period. Phone lasted all day at work and just put it on charge at 22%. This is not in anyway related to your ROM, but I am mentioning it to help others.

Congrats for your SlimLP project underway! Super grateful for your hard work, and the passion you do this with. Much respect and we thank you.

Take care and have a great evening.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Sultanxda:
Interesting note about BLN: I was playing with BLN in my kernel the other day, and noticed right off the bat that the on/off switch was broken, so I started looking at the BLN code to investigate and saw some particularly cringe-worthy code. One of the things I noticed was that BLN shamelessly holds an infinite wakelock while there is a notification: https://github.com/sultanxda/sultan...94cce59e2d5979e/drivers/input/misc/bln.c#L116

Not the greatest thing to do while the screen is off :P
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] ocd_amp:
Update - Charging

Edit: Issue seemed Random, further testing and it has not showed up anymore. The Kernel seemed to have kept running and drained the battery while the phone was supposedly turned off. I cannot explain this one but it didn't happen again.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

New Update to charging related issues:

1) Fully charged within ROM > Unplug > Power Off

2) Plug in Wall Charger > Kernel starts, First battery Pic > Screen blank > Press power button once > Low res black and white dotted Bar appears > Screen turns off - As per usual

3) Leave it alone for 5 hours or so let it keep charging - From Power OFF position (never rebooted into ROM)

4) Unplug from Wall Charger > Put away phone for 2 days - Still Power OFF position (never rebooted into ROM)

5) After 2 days, Press power button, Initial Galaxy S2 BIOS screen seen, then blank screen, no Boot

6) Retry, Press power button, Hold it down 3-5 seconds, No BIOS aka Galaxy s2 Logo, No Boot aka Dead.

7) Plug in Wall Charger, Hold power Button, Phone vibrates once, Starts, Boot into ROM --- ROM reports 0 % battery and Battery Status "Charging (AC)"

Now it is at 26% charging for about 1 hour or so.

This is not the first time this has happened, I did not report it right away because I wanted to make sure it was repeatable.

Anyone has any ideas?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] ocd_amp:
Update 2 - Possible Security Issue (Lock Screen)

Edit: This is a Cyanogenmod issue. Not Slim. The issue is with their Keyguard.apk not getting priority. Makes the first boot look unprofessional. Any CM based ROM where the Dev has not made changes to Keyguard will have this issue.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1) Wipe Cache/Dalvik Cache

2) Reboot

3) Android is upgrading message

4) Phone goes straight to Launcher for 2-3 seconds first THEN Lock Screen appears

This tested with PIN Security and also Slider Unlock on the Lock Screen. This reveals the main desktop upon boot rather than lock screen being the first thing to show up.

SlimLP WIP preview

Anyone who wants to play with SlimLP on the Skyrocket here, here's an early WIP preview build, which contains a separately compiled kernel. There are issues with the normally compiled-in kernel using the updated gcc 4.8 toolchain such that it won't boot. The kernel is compiled using the gcc 4.7 toolchain (thanks [MENTION=4800121]Sultanxda[/MENTION]!) and with it, the ROM will boot. :) The kernel will compile with the gcc 4.8 toolchain that is native to the ROM, but the no-boot issue has been a struggle. Looking at other options...

For now, I've added the prebuilt kernel to the ROM, so only one flash is needed. I've been testing with PhilZ 6.48.4 and TWRP 2.8.4.0 but prefer PhilZ. Let it sit for a while (maybe 30 seconds) and you should see the boot animation. Give it 10 minutes to boot up.

IMPORTANT: Make a nandroid backup!

Download: ROM

Be forewarned, this is not bug-free by any stretch of the imagination! :P

Use Lollipop GApps if desired: Lollipop GApps

Working:

WiFi

Bluetooth (seems to)

You tell me ;)

Known issues:

Camera previews work but a bug prevents the camera from finding storage, so no photos can be taken.

Gallery has the same storage bug.

Music not playing (sound issues)

You tell me ;)

Haven't tested these yet, but hopeful... :

GPS

SMS/MMS

Phone (no SIM card in my test phone right now)

If anyone wants to test the ROM and get some logcats for the broken or untested things, it would be helpful.

Have fun!

EDIT: Updated ROM link. Camera/Gallery storage fixed... :)
