Feedback... With build 6 and the 12-23 kernel I've noticed that before when switching for video to cam the cam size was zoomed in and not resizable until after pic but now it works smooth when switching I had no issue thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RenderBroken:
Its my fault, I should have put in the build date/number. I have an even newer build to see if I have fixed STweaks not sticking., I will be testing shortly.

Tried several times to get build 6 running right and I've had to fall back to build 5. I had a couple of apps that would not run right, most noticeably gsam battery monitor pro. More importantly though my battery was draining really fast and the phone was heating up. Tried twice with a full wipe and no tibu backup with same results.

Thats weird. I have had alot more success with Build 6. What are the apps doing? Not starting? Battery issues may be caused by the custom kernel but mine has been fine so I dont know. Can anyone backup his results?

Were you using Aroma gapps by any chance?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Beastben13:
The biggest problem I'm having with build 6 is no wifi.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] razen_kain:
The main app that gave me problems

was gsam battery monitor pro. It would install fine from the play store at first. Then i would notice it disappeared from my dash clock widgets. When i would open it up all my stats would be x's (ie xx.x%) and it said i had 60% battery no matter what the charge actually was.

The other app was bbs. It installed but would not give me any stats at all. After trying various things to get it to work i decided to start fresh and just uninstall it. When i went back to the play store it wanted me to purchase it again like i had never paid for it before. I eventually got it to work using tb.

The other app problems all seemed to be root related but i managed to get them working.

The steps i did to install the update were

Wipe c&d, factory reset, mr-cook's ROM wipe script

installed ROM

installed gapps

installed custom kernel (12/23)

Reboot.

On the second try

same thing except no ROM wipe script and i let the phone boot up, then went back and installed custom kernel after setup

No. I used the cm 11 that renderbroken originally suggested using

Haven't had issues yet. I'm on build 6 with 12-24 kernel..thing I did different was flash the update us zip after ROM/aroma/kernel install.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] razen_kain:
Ok. Maybe i am doing it wrong. I've never really stayed on a nightly ROM long enough to update it. What do you mean when you say you flashed the update as a zip?

I considered build 6 to be like a new ROM doing a full wipe as i would when switching between any other ROMs. Am i just supposed to flash it right over build 5 like dirty flash?

Edit: ok one thing i know i didn't do was the final factory data wipe. Could that cause those kinds of problems?

Edit2: i just downloaded the 12-24 kernel. The link was down this morning. Maybe this kernel will straighten things out. I will give it another shot later. For now, i am tired. I need sleep.

When I flash cm11 new I have to go to play store and download then update su app. With the zip I just go to store and update. Comes installed already. Don't know if it makes a difference but its what I have done.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] trevor.bman:
cooks rom wipe does all so i go

cooks rom wipe

flash rom

flash aroma gapps 1.5.2

reboot recovery

flash kernel

just for good measure wipe dalvik and cache

reboot recovery

flash DISMANTLER to remove apps i dont need or use

reboot system

wait...... after load install all apps via playstore on wifi

setup APN then start loading in random accts.. i dont have any gaming apps

i have here and their been experimenting with tibu but so far when i try and do full restore it dosnt work out and have to re flash all

so i have just been restoring call logs and mms and accts

also i did a two backups in twrp one was fresh install other was after all was installed and apps all setup with the fresh install backup restored fine but the other failed to restore i dont know if this is common im just sharing my experience
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] azeem40:
You did only backup the apps and their data, right? Not backup apps and system data?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] trevor.bman:
I always do full backup so I can choose what to restore it don't always work out so I may try what you suggest I'm newer to backing up ... I'm more of the format and start fresh type.. I figure if its important enough I'll save it to my desktop
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RenderBroken:
Hey guys! I have found out the reason STweaks is failing to work. I have made the change and I am building now. Also I have added GPU control and another step (Now 4) for the GPU. Now that the kernel issues are worked out (even for OMNI) I will then run another ROM build hopefully today.Just wanted to give an update.

Also I have noticed the superuser is not 100% for some reason so I am going to look at either incorporating SuperSU or just having everyone install SuperSU from the play store. Obviously the first suggestion would be easiest for the end user. But in the mean time if you want 100% working SU then download SuperSU from the Play Store and install it using the "Normal" install option.Once done reboot.

i have been letting both of my phones settle so i can make that video today

my phone has this build 6 with the newest 12-29 Render CM11 kernel

my other has omni build 12-26 i think about same build date and the 12-29 Render Omni kernel

so both phones have been being used as DD for me and my lady hers has mor games where as i dont have any games like i tried to say before i dont want it to be a comparison but im sure it will look like that because its a side by side video

so i think i have decided to not talk as much as i could in the video because more talking would be like im comparing

**also both have custom boot screens made by me, my girls is not perfect but its flashy and pink so see likes it**

if you have anything you specifically want to see let me know

Fixed Build 6.

I added my 12/29/2013 Kernel build to is as well.

Thanks guys for your patience. As I said the next build will just have the stock kernel and if people want to add my custom kernel they can flash it on top. This will help reduce issues like this. I am working on creating a bunch of automated scripts that will handle alot of the small stuff that is easily overlooked. There is alot of small things that go into building, packaging and then uploading. I appreciate that lack of complaining and people taking initiative. Soon I will be creating tutorials on how to build or contribute. People could look through other rom/kernel source and send me the commit they would like added. I can then merge it into my rom/kernel and give credit for finding such a commit. It would kinda work along the lines OMNI works. But the main difference for me is I have a different goal. I want to have a clean/productive rom/kernel. I am not against adding cool new features as long as its implemented cleanly and doesn't conflict with the ultimate goal.

I have built cm10.1 for i777 from source on my laptop before by following the cm wiki. Cm11 won't build for me though. I'm guessing something needs to be changed for the builds to work. But I have the repo synced and everything.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RenderBroken:
Please use this as your base reference:

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Build_for_i777

But where ever it says:

repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b cm-10.2

replace cm-10.2 with cm-11.0

so it will look like this:

repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b cm-11.0

After downloading all the source AND BEFORE building proceed below.

Make your roomservice.xml file look like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<manifest>

<project name="CyanogenMod/android_device_samsung_i777" path="device/samsung/i777" remote="github" />

<project name="CyanogenMod/android_device_samsung_galaxys2-common" path="device/samsung/galaxys2-common" remote="github" />

<project name="CyanogenMod/android_hardware_samsung" path="hardware/samsung" remote="github" />

<project name="CyanogenMod/android_packages_apps_SamsungServiceMode" path="packages/apps/SamsungServiceMode" remote="github" />

<project name="CyanogenMod/android_kernel_samsung_smdk4412" path="kernel/samsung/smdk4412" remote="github" />

<project name="TheMuppets/proprietary_vendor_samsung" path="vendor/samsung" remote="github" revision="cm-11.0" />

</manifest>

You just need to repo sync to get all the i777 blobs needed. Once you start to build you will run into an error about sensors.cpp The below command will temporarily fix that:

First cd to the directory:

cd devices/samsung/i777

Then run:

git fetch http://review.cyanogenmod.org/CyanogenMod/android_device_samsung_i777 refs/changes/90/54090/1 && git cherry-pick FETCH_HEAD

Just remember the next time you repo sync the commit will be discarded. That is the only error now but in the early days it took a little more adjustments. This is a very rough draft but you guys are smart, I bet you can get through it!

Happy Building!

I don't know a thing about code, and with a newborn in the house, I really don't have time for this madness, but it seems so feesible -I'm so tempted (to build OMNI). I wanna do it just to better understand the process, and all-that's behind the shiny curtains.

I've got several spare machines sitting around that I could devote specifically to Ubuntu/building, but nothing recent at all. Could a 32bit p4 on 8gb ram get a build done inside of 24 hours? would I be better off using a Virtual setup in a more recent windows setup?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RenderBroken:
I would say it would take about 12 hours for a build from scratch. If you enabled ccache and do not plan to make numerous changes then when you build again it will be drastically less time (Maybe 2 -3 hours) since it will reuse what has already been compiled. You do not need to run make clean or make clobber after each build if all you want to do is build a nightly.

Not at this time. I have though about adding it in the future. I use a lot of tiles and have to scroll down to use some of them. This is a perfect example of something I would like to add to the ROM. It helps reduces the amount of time to get something done. In the next build I will try to get this ported over.
