I've seen issues where the initial Play Store stop hangs on restoring the last app. If it happens on another ROM too, it's probably something with GApps.

You have to provide all the details you can here:

1. ROM build date

2. GApps package used (provide a link to the download)

3. Clean flashed (wipe /system, /cache, /dalvik)?

4. Full wiped (/data too)?

5. Recovery install log

6. Logcat showing the hang/crash...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] radoo7701:
I flashed the latest least night. My process to get everything working is

1) Full wipe - System, Data, Cache

2) Install ROM only

3) Reboot to system

4) Setup after startup finishes.

5) Reboot to Recovery

6) Install gapps from OP

7) Reboot to System

8. get System and Setup FCs when it boots

9) Reboot to Recovery

10) Factory Reset

11) Reboot to System

12) Complete setup.

Everything works for me after that.

Can also confirm "Buttons" tab works now.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] yrv_13:
Never mind, solved it. Problem was when flashing gapps. What i did to finally get them working:

1.full wipe (everything even partitions)

2.flash this AWESOME Rom

3.wipe cache & dalvik

4.flash gapps in OP

5.boot and let it sit for about an hour then complete setup.

So far so good, features are a big plus for battery life is excellent, performance is outstanding, the best one can get from this old device. So far this is the best Rom I've ever used it truly feels like a new device. Thanks Dev:beer:

i dirty flash this build v1.1 0320.

i'm getting random reboots and

my battery draining very fast(as soon i connect wifi or playing a game its draining like hell).

i don't want to clean flash coz im using snapchat and u know it there's a problem with snapchat in rooted phones.if i clean flash i have to make a new registration with snapchat and ill lost all my friends.

help me out..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] yrv_13:
Dirty flash again Clear data and cache, also let the rom sit for a while if that doesnt fix it then im sorry to tell you this but i think a clean flash is the only option, for Snapchat , i believe TB can backup your accounts and your app data so there should be no problems there just dont restore system data with TB. A nand backup first always recommended just in case.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NoSpamDan:
Unfortunately, my Crystal Ball is in the shop for repairs... I'm not sure what exactly you expect to accomplish without providing logs and full details?

You need to help me to help you.

Dirty flashed the 3/20 build onto what version?

What else did you flash?

Are you still running Xposed with the same modules (Gravity Box, Lucky Patcher, Root cloak, etc)?

Did you flash SuperSU normal or systemless, or any other root method?

I don't use SnapChat.

For now try wiping Cache and Dalvik in recovery.

If that doesn't work, wipe /system, /dalvik and /cache and reflash the ROM and GApps...

If that too doesn't work, either you need to clean flash, or just go back to your nandroid backup and problem solved.

Clear Dalvik and cache, not data...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] KEMC2k6:
I was having battery problems as well, draining really fast. If I rebooted the phone and it was below %50, it would drop down in the single digits. Just installed Cataclysm, I had 90ish % battery before, and Cataclysm now shows 57%.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] illbegood:
live wallpaper not supported

Thanks for the ROM. So far so good. Does anyone know how to enable live wallpaper on this ROM? If not, will this feature

be added in the future?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NoSpamDan:
What? Wrong thread... :confused:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NoSpamDan:
You would need to add support for it. It's been missing for months, and as far as I know, there are no plans to add it any time soon.

Maybe there's an app that can do it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] yorch_300:
LiveDisplay Functionality... Coming Soon???

This ROM is awesome... But I like LiveDisplay Functionality... Can you add this? This functionality is un Candy5... Why Candy6 Dont? In Next Update you add this? Is an ussefull function. :( :confused: :good:

[MENTION=4435460]NoSpamDan[/MENTION]

before when i was on build v1.0 2/11

1. I dirty flash the 3/20 build on 2/11 build.

2. yes the camera was not working properly(getting that dialogue"camera dismiss.") so i flash the other camera. add-on package which makes my camera more stable.(removes stock camera) link below .

link :- https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24421527759890115

3. no. i unistall xposed that day only.

4. I flash the normal superSU.(i'm not using systemless root)

5. I use snapchat.(:D:p:laugh:)

then i tried wiping Cache and Dalvik in recovery but doesn't work,

so I wipe /system, /dalvik and /cache and re-flash the ROM (build v1.1 03/20) and Gapps.

that too doesn't work, got again some random reboots,force close . again i wiping Cache and Dalvik in recovery, and let the rom sit for half an hour, after this the rom was in stable condition, better battery life , smooth , fast etc.:good:

today morning

when i wokeup and connect my phone to wifi it just hang for 10 sec and reboots.

got some force closes, one or two times reboots,

again i clear cache/dalvik cache, some how its working good now. but i cant say when ill get those reboots.

i have got logs for that but ,i'm really trying hard to get logs to b upload here but the file size of logs is about 1mb,5mb,8mb so its not allowing me to attach.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] yaseenarafath:
ok, i manage the logs , there a zip file attached. check it out
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NoSpamDan:
I didn't have time to dig with find detail through the logs, but they show a bunch of app issues (SHAREit, LINE, even an issue it seems with Google's new Auto service in Play Services), but no RR info. Quite a mix of things you have running there...

Don't flash that Google camera. Just install it from the play store if you want it. That's another thing modifying the system.

Don't flash SuperSU it is included with the ROM. It flashes as a separate install step in recovery.

Also get rid of Xposed if you want to continue with looking at this.

Next steps for you:

1. Make sure you are using my TWRP VP recovery, and make another nandroid backup.

2. Wipe /system, /cache and /dalvik in recovery, and install ONLY the updated ROM and a compatible GApps package. Don't flash SuperSU, Xposed or anything else.

3. Save a recovery log from my TWRP VP recovery and post it back.

4. To catch RRs you can try the app Bootlog Uptime on the Play Store. Open it up and select that it tells you and dumps the log if it happens. It should prompt you for Superuser permissions (root access) if you have root turned on in Developer Options. Test a dump with it first to make sure it works, then run it and watch for the boot icon indicating a RR occurred. Post the log it makes from that.

Otherwise, clean flash looks imminent.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] yaseenarafath:
thanks for the response,

1. I'm not flashing the superSU separately...its being flash with ROM itself.

2. I already unistall the xposed.

I'll follow the steps you mention above and get u recovery log.

and il try that app bootlog uptime and provide you logs.

---------- Post added at 10:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:22 PM ----------

i'll go clean flash if that doen't work for me.:good::good::):)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NoSpamDan:
OK. It doesn't make sense to me how you could lose contacts with your SnapChat account unless it is not a legal/legitimate version...

It should install/restore your account just fine, shouldn't it?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] yaseenarafath:
its not about loosing contacts its about loosing the whole account, and u already know snapchat is not working properly on a rooted device. it simply says temperately unable to login, it neither logins nor registers the old account. so simply u have to delete that account and registered with new one.

OK, I some how manage the RR's logs, Recovery logs and camera logs, find the attachment below.

damn! what's happening, I don't know...look at the screenshot....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] yaseenarafath:
[MENTION=4435460]NoSpamDan[/MENTION]

more RR's and more logs and i have a screenshot below..check out.

3 days 18 crashes back to back
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NoSpamDan:
Enough logs, thanks.

Anyone else getting this kind of behavior?

Did you wipe /system, /cache and /dalvik and re-flash like I said?

If you did, and you haven't installed anything to /system but the ROM and GApps, time to full wipe clean flash.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] yaseenarafath:
yes i did what you said me before to like wipe /system, /cache and /dalvik and re-flash the ROM and GApps and haven't installed anything to /system. and got this RR's..

ok for now. i will full wipe and clean flash the latest ROM and Gapps . and see how it works.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NoSpamDan:
A full nandroid will allow you to get back to exactly where you are, although it sounds like you want the backup before this instead.

I have not had any such issues on my Skyrocket, and it's practically an identical build.

Good luck!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] KEMC2k6:
Not quite, I'm not the only one that had battery problems, battery draining too fast. It must be coming from the latest CM build. Pure Nexus ROM is also having this issue, at least for me, battery drains fast, like it's not properly calibrated, using an app won't work either. I decided to get a Nexus 6, so no biggie for me :p, but I did see someone else mention the battery problem.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] vnation:
thanks dev for your work.

i followed all instruction you mentioned and just flashed latest candySix but it been 30min my phone still botting. what should i do now ? do i have to wait for a half hour again? how much time it takes to first boot up??
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NoSpamDan:
You are referring to the SGH-T989 Hercules, correct?

This CandySiX build does have some CM repos, but is heavily AOSP.

You can try changing the CPU governor, but using standard wake lock analysis and the CPU Spy app should help sort it. Are you sure it isn't GApps and the new Google Play Services?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NoSpamDan:
First flash on this ROM ever, or update...?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] KEMC2k6:

it is for the first time im installing this. i had to wipe everything and installed tesla as i was using previously.. very disappointed that i cant use MM :crying:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NoSpamDan:
You FULL wiped your device (internal storage too), flashed my special recovery, rebooted recovery, and formatted system, cache, internal storage fully and successfully? Something is missing here...

If you get errors formatting, reboot recovery and try again.

I've tested the procedure several times and know it works. Has to be something you did or didn't do... You should be able to install this and use it. :confused:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Gthunders:
Do you have zip file tp allow flashlight option in the power menu because I checked out all the options on this rom and there is no enabling for it unless you pull down the top bar to access it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NoSpamDan:
No, but when the new base is ready, it should have a customizable power menu which includes flashlight.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Gthunders:

i have got two or three RR's but not like before.

check the log's and do tell me
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NoSpamDan:
Not entirely obvious to me. Did you wipe the internal data partition too?

I don't see an external SD card in your log, is one inserted? If so, try booting/running without it.

Who else is having these issues?

flashed the rom and rebooted system just spins and spins

I had a horrible weekend with testing this ROM.

So let me outline my weekend.

1.) I downloaded : CandySiX-1.1-hercules-OFFICIAL-0320.zip

2.) I downloaded : My modified BanKs Dynamic GApps (26Jan2016) with the keyboard libraries removed

3.) I followed the steps to a T , Flashed CandySiX + GApps rebooted phone

4.) phone starts up at the setup screen ( everything is great and works fine until the battery starts draining )

battery will be at 100% and then 20 mins later off charger its at 80% This i can not deal with I need a phone where my battery will last all day

I then re did the install again and still the same problem happens - battery starts draining like crazy

I had to go back to JEDI MIND TRICK again because i need a stable phone
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NoSpamDan:
Sorry you had trouble trying to use this ROM, however, such complaints are not helpful to me, the other users, and this ROM's development.

How about providing some empirical data, like Better Battery Stats or Wake Lock Detector logs, or any logs reporting what was keeping the phone awake? Not even a logcat as requested in the OP? :confused:

It sure sounds like you have a wake lock, and this is a very common problem with mobile devices and misbehaving apps, including Google Play Services. There is a lot of information on this on XDA, like T.J. Bender's "The Total Newb's Guide to Wakelocks". Don't be fooled by the name, there's a lot of good info there to know.

Riddle me these things:

Did you try just flashing the ROM without GApps?

Did you try the Normal BAnks Dynamic GApps and Easy_as_Pi_3.14's keyboard patch?

Did you try a pico or nano GApps package and install the remainder of Google apps from the Play Store.

What GApps are you flashing on this "other" ROM?

Did you try them on this CandySiX ROM?

What governor and I/O Scheduler were you using?

Did you try changing the governor or scheduler?

Running any mods, battery saver tweaks, Xposed, or the like?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sleepyg72786:
The 4/5/2016 build is MUCH better on the battery; very similar (from what I can tell so far) to that of 2/11/2016.

Steps I followed to change over:

Did a nandroid of course of my 2/11.

Did a wipe of all partitions from top to bottom.

Did a format.

Did a factory reset.

Did a wipe again just cause.

Double-checked file systems of partitions.

Flashed new ROM version.

Flashed GApps right after.

Rebooted.

Connected Google account and reobtained all apps.

Would like to note no Xposed (not necessary for me). Only thing I'm using as far as system modifying apps is Greenify donate, SD Maid Pro, AdAway, and I guess you could say BetterBatteryStats could be considered that as well. Other than that it's just standard stuff like Chrome, CameraMX, File Manager, Gmail, Nova Prime, Pandora, and Textra.

Thanks again for your work. Been using since Candy5's October release.

I'm using banks dynamics Gapps from your post #2 download section.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NoSpamDan:
The "normal" or modified ones?

If it's the normal ones, please link the package you used exactly. They do get updated.

EDIT: You could try Open Gapps and make a gapps-config file as their site explains to select a nano or pico gapps package, as well as blacklist apps you don't want replaced, like gallery. Some GApps will try to replace your keyboard with Google's, your camera with Google's, etc...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] yaseenarafath:
i'm using your modified BanKs Dynamic GApps (26Jan2016) with the keyboard libraries removed.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NoSpamDan:
I should probably change that now... I did say you could try another small GApps package...

Try Open Gapps pico, nano, micro, mini or maybe even full. But if you have trouble, start small, with pico, nano or micro.

BaNks is only supporting TWRP 3.X going forward, so I've linked in Post #2 to [MENTION=2107489]bryan2894[/MENTION]'s TWRP 3.X recovery flashable for you to try.

I've just finished up OnePlus and Nexus 5 builds on the new base, but I'm having a few issues with celox. I decided to track [MENTION=2107489]bryan2894[/MENTION]'s unified celox structure, or else I would probably be calling it quits for Hercules (and maybe Skyrocket). It will be a bit longer before it's ready. I think it's close, though, so thanks for being patient to those in waiting.

Hello,

I'm facing two problem and it's really disturbed. When the battery percentage down bellow 15 %. Battery drain quickly and don't picking up change from power-bank and sometimes from adapter. Need few reboot.

Another one, after disable the wifi it's using mobile data connection though data connection is off for few times, then Ok.

What i should provide you to get rid of this.

Thanks for your nice build.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NoSpamDan:
New Build Available

OK, here we go... CandySiX-celox-2.1-OFFICIAL-0421.zip

This is the first "unified" build for celox devices, meaning it serves the Skyrocket and Hercules both. The code should determine what device you have and sort things accordingly.

Make a nandroid backup!

YOU MUST CLEAN FLASH (Wipe /system, /data, /cache and /Dalvik) to use this... Subsequent flashes should not require a /data wipe but if you do have issues, you know the drill... (Hint: Wipe /system, /data, /cache and /Dalvik).

Make sure you have read and understand the OP instructions, and head on over to post #2 to download the ROM...

Also note, this is a rebased build on AOSPB, so there could still be bugs. Enjoy!
