[MENTION=4176532]Phalanx7621[/MENTION] have you tried the non-aroma gaps that were linked in the op?

I have a copy if it's not still there

Sent from my SGH-S959G
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Phalanx7621:
The MD5 matches, so the download is definitely good. In the last 30 minutes or so, I downloaded (as also suggested by a member of this awesome thread) the other apps linked in the OP, the cm 11 gapps at http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Google_Apps. Did the whole process again (full wipe, yadda yadda, cooks rom script), let it boot up without gapps, everything looked great. (and the cpu was running cold,nice idle speeds, etc) Then I rebooted, and installed those gapps. After rebooting and setting up my google account, I let the phone sit for a few. Checked it, and it's nice and cold. Speeds are showing normal, idling normal, everything looking good. SO, my conclusion is that the Aroma gapps must somewhere along the line be installing an app that is hanging in the background. That's the ONLY thing I can possibly attribute it to, because I know it's not the ROM or the download. Anyway, it is looking great now, I'll be testing this out tonight and tomorrow. Thanks again Render! :cyclops:

Sorry the aroma didn't work for you i did say its not for everyone I personally love the visuals cypher did an awesome job ... It may be one of the apps tho that could have been my reason for error as well but I've found a good combination of add and remove apps and thus its working now I know for sure the pa mini gapps is also a good gapps pkg for us ive tried it.. But I like aroma

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] IndigoAK:
Okay, so I've been playing with your latest build and here's what I've noticed that's new.

-Exiting some apps will cause the CyanogenMod boot animation to appear and the desktop to reload. I don't think this is a full reboot since the Galaxy S II logo doesn't appear, but I don't know enough about this behavior to say for certain.

-Updating apps now removes their icon from the desktop and if they are set as the default for something, will remove their default status (example: SwiftKey gets turned off as the default every single time they push an update). Before your latest build, this didn't occur.

-Since I installed your latest build, Hangouts is no longer able to retrieve MMS messages. I can send them, but it won't retrieve them. Something in this update seems to have borked Hangouts in general though.

I just want to clarify that all of this is new behavior. I've never had these things occur on other ROMs or even other builds of yours. That said, I don't know enough about Android to know what's your new build's fault and what isn't, which is why I'm posting.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] trevor.bman:
what gapps do you have if you have aroma please try to use the other gapps and let us know if its the same result

because i have had icons disappear but with reflash and different selection on aroma apps the issue did not continue

torrent link in 2nd post goes to Dev-Host Filename: gapps-kk-20131119.zip
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Phalanx7621:
I second this. The latest gapps, found here http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Google_Apps works EXTREMELY well for me and I've had zero issues with it. Not a lot of bells and whistles, but it just WORKS without issue, which is what I want haha. Render, I'll be posting battery and other information probably tomorrow, just to give it some time to settle, but BetterBatteryStats (for free here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1179809 ) is showing excellent deep sleep %. Thanks again =D

edit: figured I would mention, as stated on the page of those gapps, they are NOT ART compatible, and the Hangouts messaging app may be borked, I haven't really messed with it but it SEEMS to be working fine for me at the moment.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] IndigoAK:
I've gone back to the official 10.2 nightlies for now. I'm sure there's some fidgeting I could do with the GAPPS packages and Render's ROM (and I really don't want this to be seen as a knock against render because overall this ROM is fantastic), but I guess I'm just looking for less fidgeting. I need to keep this phone useable daily until I get my Moto G next month.

I will definitely keep an eye on this thread though and I will probably throw this back on my i777 after I get the new phone. Just gonna wait for it a mature a little more.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] trevor.bman:
hangouts works great for me even tried a 3 way video hangout with my 2 s2's and my moms tmobile s2 stock version i had to go see her last night so i tried it i had all three phone and set it up and my mom was like "WHAT ! ! ! Awesome " it was funny

just to add none of the phones were on wifi
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RenderBroken:
Thank you for your insight. Can you give an example of some of the apps that cause the soft reboot?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] IndigoAK:
The only ones I really noticed it with were games, things that had 3D graphics. My main vice in that regard is Subway Surfers. One thing I remember is that the phone was running kind of warm when it happened and that it took forever for the desktop to reload all of the widgets and stuff when it came back up and would be sort of sluffish, like it was doing a bunch of extra stuff in the background during the soft reboot that it wouldn't do during a normal boot? Also, as for time playing, my play sessions for that game usually run anywhere from five to fifteen minutes, in case that makes a difference.

This phone has run hot for me with every ROM I've put on it (even the stock ROM way back when), just to varying degrees. The official CyanogenMod nightlies seem to run a bit cooler than yours, but the battery life is worse (I'm not sure how that works, but whatever). Maybe I just have a slightly defective unit that likes to try and set itself on fire.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] maddawg138:
I've had the same issue before and it was with many other roms as well. I think its just something to do with the phone itself (keep in mind I'm using the straight talk version)

I've had issues where it would get extremely hot to the point of where I would just shut the phone off and let it sit for like 5 minutes to cool off

Every once in awhile while charging it would get the same way and i would just unplug the phone and then shut it off as well.

not to bad almost 24 hours on this rom no bugs at all for me so far battery drained 31% over night biggest drainer was google services at 39% of it. and android os at 20%. Being the novice I am I used aroma gapps and just installed almost everything and in the second part of it I didn't tell it to deactivate anything.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] trevor.bman:
I second that about the smoothness... My phone is the coldest it has ever been .... I almost thought it was off until I checked it

That's unfortunate. Wonder what is preventing it. As of kitkat they started use host card emulation where a secure element isn't available so that shouldn't be a factor. You just need a us based cell carrier instead.

So I have been doing some major kernel work. Since the i9100 has a very lively dev scene I decided that I will use one over there as a base. The Dev is Gustavo_s. I like what he id doing as he is very active and the kernel work looks to keep things pretty stable.Since I would be using his work as a bae I may keep his name on it. I am not very big in the kernel scene but am learning. I plan on using his source as a base then growing from there. I am going to try and get this working for the i777 tonight if possible. We shall see. . . I am also starting to setup my own source (Rom for now/Kernel Later) on Github. I will release it when applicable. Right now its not hardly different from Official CM. When I start adding permanent features then it will matter more.

Yes this will only work for KK since it uses a different initramfs than JB. AJK has JB completely covered and better than I could do so I wont even touch it.

I also found that you cant hear the person on the other end of a phone call and I doubt they can hear you. This is something else I will need to change. As stated I will post the kernel for those who want to try it and to get back you can use the Kernel in OP #1 by mr-cook. Its just a flashable stock CM11 kernel I made.

I think there maybe a problem with the way the sd card mounts and file structure. I have an sd card 0 internal storage and sd card 1 sd1 is external storage but when in apps like backup to cloud apps it has sd card and external sd and external is not linking to sd card 1 and in the file explorer the sd card has a folder external sd that use to (in previous roms and stock) show you the stuff in the external sd card now it is empty. No my sd card is not empty just incase that was your first thought. I hope I explained this good enough. also go to settings storage at the bottom it showes sd card total space and avialable space like it should.

Not to hijack Render's thread or anything but if anyone wants to try my kernel and see if it works here is a linky. It is basically identical to Render's except it should fix the mic, call sound, and touch keys and it is also compiled with linaro. If it does then I can tell Render what I did to fix these problems. Also make sure to follow this install process! Enjoy

1. Reboot into recovery
2. Wipe Dalvik and cache
3a. Flash mr.cook's kernel cleaner for safety (idk if necessary, I did it without out doing this step but whatever floats your boat)
