Hi all, i'm using Froydvillian, and have applied both the Samsung Galaxy and Mininmal Matt ports which have been ported over for this specific ROM, and for some reason, on both, the drop down notification menu and the taskbar at the top are staying standard.
Both work when i wipe the device from recovery then flash, but once i restart the phone the problem occurs again!!!! why is this happening!! please reply asap as i'm going on holiday in 3 days and wish for this to be resolved.
Thanks in advance,

Not sure what you mean here. Did you flash one theme over another? Also, to undo themes, a wipe isn't enough. You need to fully reflash the stock ROM to get rid of themes.
Also, after installing a theme, don't install another over it unless you fully reflash the ROM again.
Thanks for the quick reply what i mean is, i flashed The latest Froydvillian ROM, and have been using it for a few days. However, when i downloaded and flashed the Samsung Galaxy theme for it, certain aspects of the theme didn't work, such as the notification pull down menu, and the taskbar at the top. They both stayed standard with the later text or symbols, but the colours and design was not the them.
I found out if i boot into recovery and wipe all settings, then flash the theme it works correctly, however if i reboot the phone it reverts back to the mismatched and ugly theme!
I have encountered this problem many times *zeik* it's so stupid! Anyways for my themes it worked for me to modify the update-script so it deletes the files before copying (since you probably have no idea what i'm talking about copy/paste it and PM the developer xD). I am very bussy right now so I can't do it but I'm sure the themer will do it for you (it's a very simple task)
Please enjoy. Thanks to untermensh for the original coding, and ecotox, who's rom i took apart for a visual aid.

Please let me know if you have any issues. And as always, no matter what you're flashing make sure you have a recent backup handy. Not recommended to flash on anything but stock theme, and do not flash a custom theme after this or it will revert to that themes options.
Power options work, but no accurate battery
Should this work with blackhole 1.1?
EDIT: Ok I just tried to flash on blackhole 1.1 and it froze on black screen after vibrant logo on reboot.
Gotta love backups.
wow, anyone else try this and have issues? it was tested working on blackhole 1.1 earlier this afternoon. let me know if others are having issues.
Ok I tried it again and its working fine now. Not sure what happened the first time, maybe just a bad flash.
Good job and thanks a lot for all your work. Blackhole 1.1 is great and so easily available. Love it
What happened to the accurate battery mod btw?
Ever since I downloaded this one theme and it didn work, My phone cannot install themes. Every time I install a theme, I will boot up, get force closes that I dont even know what force closes because im stuck on a black screen, and I always have to restore back to my last save. What is up with this.
What rom are you using? That would help out things a lot better
We need more info. We need to know what ROM you are using, what theme you tried flashing, and any other info you can provide. Otherwise, you just have a story for a first post that no one is going to do anything with but read over and move on.
Sounds like dbdata issue. Try adrynalyne's 2.7 fix. He has a tar/odin file in there that will fix your phone.

Had the same issues. Had to flash to bare bones stock via Odin and start over. I was running sc 2.6 voodoo.. Flashed 2 themes, on the 3rd it was FC hell; even if I restored my very first theme (VA Green at that time) it would FC hell. Only think g that wiould load was my theme free sc 26voodoo
Did you figure this out?? It's doing to me again. Sammmme ****, on my 3rd theme i get fc loops and cannot flash any themes... currently on sc 2.8voodoo

I have stock eb01 deodexed. Some themes work once I install a theme that gives me force closes, then install another theme over that. I really have gaven up and Dont care anymore. I guess the fix is the re-flash stock eb01 with odin, but im way to lazy
To allow Q&A to be separated from bugs/development - this is the Q&A thread for the I9100 Hellraiser found at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1335377
I intend to put FAQs here, along with keeping a list of tested ROMs. Keep general discussion here, and only use the other thread for bug reports and development.
In general: If it's listed as a known issue, and you don't have a fix, keep it out of the development thread. If you're not sure if it's Hellraiser-specific and common to multiple ROMs, keep it out of the development thread. In short, if you ask "Is this a bug?" in that thread, I will report it to the moderators. If you report a bug that is ROM-specific and not a Hellraiser issue, I will report those to the moderators starting tomorrow.
Tested ROMs:
I9100 XXKI3 Based:
SensatioN 1.8 by Crysis21 - Tested by myself with Alpha 0.2.1 - Fully working except 0.2.1 Known Issues, defaults to "good" AT&T APNs except for it has the "Broadband" APN which may cause the Tether Police to nail you if you tether. I suggest deleting that one.
VillainROM 3.0 + JKay Deluxe Themes v12 - Tested by myself with all versions, and my current "testbed"
I9100 XXKI4 Based:
CheckROM Revolution HD 2.0.0 - A few user reports indicate this may have WiFi issues when Hellraised similar to UCKJ2/J4 for I777
I9100 XWKJ2 Based:
CriskeloROM V30 + JKay Deluxe V12.1 - Reported by simpl3lang, seems to be working
If you have a report for a ROM, please indicate which I9100 firmware it is based on (XXKI3, XXKI4, etc.)
Also, I have seen reports that XWKK5 bases (like the latest CheckROM as of 1/8/2012) have the same issues with Bluetooth HID not working as UCKK6 - even when not Hellraised.
If someone posts a good, in-depth review of a ROM, I may link to it from this list. (Time permitting...)
Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: The home button lag is back, why?
A: The ROM has the annoying Vlingo double-tap support. Either smali it out (look for tips in the UnNamed ROM git repos, or look for a fix for that ROM.) - A commonly available fix may be flashing a JKay Deluxe Theme appropriate for the base of your ROM
Q: Home button haptic feedback is not working, why?
This is something that can't be "universally fixed" with Hellraiser. It must be modified in an individual manner for every ROM in android.policy.jar with some smali magic. It was the same deal with I9000 ROM ports to the Captivate.
Q: Where do I find themes/mods?
Look through the I9100 Themes/Apps forum for mods/themes appropriate to your ROM. Nothing I do in the Hellraising process should break any of these compatibility-wise.
i finally jumped on board and installed an i9100 rom. so far so good. im loving it. first install went smooth. root working and all. i dont know about battery life (my phone still plugged in while testing this out).
okay here is the rom ive installed "CriskeloRom V30-S-BAR-12/7-Tog-BLN-CallREC-Overscroll-7Locks-PWR-M-Esxt-(XWKJ2-2.3.5)"

i have also installed JKAY DELUXE SETTINGS v12.1 <--great addon. lets you have multiple slide to unlock (AOSP lockscreen). option to remove home double tap. option to customize power options (extended). crt off/on animation. overscroll glow. all these options and more on this DELUXE SETTINGS app. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1154278
so far im loving it. this will be my rom for now. thanks ENTROPY for the great HELLRAISER.. you the man
edit: alright i have tried wifi tether. its not working. i know its mentioned in the known issues. the workaround doesnt seem to work for me at least ......i enabled changed ssid and password. but once i exit settings, it reverts back to borkness lol. any other workaround? thanks
Edit 2: nevermind i figured it out. I rmmbered i replaced the Settings.apk with one that has a theme i like. That borked wifi tether for me. I returned the settings apk i replaced, rebooted, and all is good
I just wanted to bump this to the top... this thread needs to be stickied! How do I ask a mod to sticky it?

Good question - I know in the Infuse section some ROM Q&As were stickied, but they don't do that in other forums.
Plus at least this is CLEARLY linked to from the main Hellraiser thread.
Hellraiser doesn't seem to work with the new 1.9 sensation update, unless I'm doing something wrong. A popup saying the process com.android.phone has stopped unexpectedly comes up repeatedly as the app restarts. Seems like a modem error, the sim card isn't read properly either. I'm about to try hacking the updater script to remove the kernal and modem changes, is there anything I would need to do other than delete those lines and repack it?
I did reinstall hellraiser after the update.

You must be doing something wrong... I am running 1.9 and have been since the test build.. I will post some screen shots in a moment

I did have it hooked to a computer while 1.9 downloaded and that's why you see that slight bump...

How did you install specifically?
I can't get it running. I've tried updating 1.8 and doing a fresh install and flashing hell raiser afterwards but the com.android.phone app crashes and signal is lost upon reboot. It actually works until I reboot.

I had 1.8 flashed 1.9 on top without wipe.
Mounted system and data and then flashed hellraiser on top. And haven't had any issues.

An i9100 modem/kernel will NOT work, that's for sure.
In fact some of the behaviors you mention sound kind of like a classic example of accidentally running an I9100 modem. The rest sound like a classic example of not wiping or doing an improper TiBu restore.
I'll try to test tonight.
It may have been titanium backup, I also didn't remount before hell raising. I'll get it working if he did
Hi Entropy, do you have any idea why the tethering settings are not persistant?
I remounted before flashing and still had the problem. When restoring backup I used advanced restore and found that the culprit is in system, not boot. I don't have the time for a full wipe today.
If it works for entropy I'll just do another full wipe and not restore anything. Thanks for your time on this.

CheckROM RevolutionHD v3.1.1
I tried raisin' hell with CheckROM RevolutionHD 3.1.1 last night. This is an XWJK3 based ROM, and seemed to work fine. I was intrigued with the idea of having a kitchen in the ROM to customize it and wanted to check it out. Everything seemed to run and work ok. Home button lag and lack of haptic feedback were known and expected. There were a couple of things though -
1) The phone ran really hot. Like skin singeing hot. There was another post on the CheckROM thread that talked about the phone running hot. But I noticed the same problem with a hellraised VillainROM as well. So not sure if that is a hellraiser issue or a ROM specific issue. I do know about the media scanner crashing due to incompatible codecs between Samsung derived ROMs and CM7/MIUI, I didn't get a chance to see if getting rid of my media would fix it because of issue 2...
2) The kitchen app while great in theory, isn't quite there in practice yet it seems like. I tried installing a few mods from the kitchen, but a lot of times downloads failed. I tried installing the BlueMonkey theme from the kitchen and it caused the phone to bootloop. There are quite a few people talking about bootloops on the ROM page, so I am leaning towards this being a ROM or kernel incompatibility issue. I have never had bootloops or anything nearly as funky with any of the native I777 ROMs. I had to flash back to bone stock to recover. Thank god for Nandroids
So, I guess it is ok to the add XWJK3 based ROMs to the compatible list if Entropy thinks both of the above two issues are not hellraiser related.
I've never had heat problems on VillainROM hellraised.
I've been starting to hear that CheckROM 3.1.1 has a lot of issues with the kitchen app - as in 3.1.1 has issues in general. I've seen lots of comments about people sticking with 2.0.0 until it matures.
I only tried CheckROM VERY briefly - enough to confirm that wifi worked (as there was a negative report on wifi with CR 2.0.0)
I'll update the list later this week.
GingerMod
Thank you for this awesome tool, Entropy! You can add GingerMod (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1220283) to your list of XXKI3 ROMs that work well Hellraised.
I've quickly tested out everything I can think of from a fresh install (wipe everything, format/system) and no problems to report. Wifi tethering has the minor problem of reverting to default settings, but they work, so it's not an issue in the slightest for me. Default APN settings are the same as on UnNamed--ATT Phone and ATT WAP. Home button haptic works out of the box--I didn't do anything.
For those interested, some quick hits about this great ROM:
- Most Samsungyness removed, really convincing AOSP feel. It's not just a theme, it's rebuilt. Just a few niceties such as Camera, Browser, FM Radio remain. You can add back whatever Samsung features you want.
- Small, 1/2 size compared to stock ROMs
- There is no lengthy screen on delay during calls when removing phone from your face (present in UnNamed)
- Customizable via included "Extras" settings and JKay app
- Been stable for awhile. Over at the thread, you won't notice a lot of random issues or people clamoring for "fixes". It's just really complete.
I'm so far unsuccessful in getting a system theme to stick. Ideally, I'm interested in the CM9/CM10 themes made by DustinB. I can install them from the Play Store and I can apply them as themes in system settings. I can even play around with the new theme for as long as I want but the moment I reboot I end up in a boot loop.
I've tried both Liquid Smooth and Carbon ROM 4.3 nightlies with their stock kernels as well as funky 4.0.3. I can't speak to other ROMS/kernels.
I can install icon packs which are loaded through Nova launcher but I'm looking for a system theme that will do more. Has anyone else had this problem or know of a resolution?
I captured a logcat of the bootloop and I can see several E/ errors and a few F/ fatal errors but it doesn't mean anything to me beyond that. I'd be happy to share it if it would help.

if it is not recommended for cm10.2 for your 4.3 themes than that may be a big issue....especially if you get the error and hit apply anyway....other than that the only way ill be able to tell you anything is if you send me the logcat

I sent you a PM. Thanks in advance for any help.
So I've been working with the owner of the theme trying to troubleshoot this bootloop and the problem proving to be quite elusive. I'm starting with a cleanwiped system with a LiquidSmooth or Carbon nightly on which the theme runs (and reboots) smoothly. As I install apps it will eventually bootloop upon reboot but not after a particular app (or set of apps) consistently. Stay tuned, with another 20 or 30 nand restores we just might figure this out.

Have you tried the latest version of Hue? It is working fine now with no bootloops. I had read somewhere in the thread for it that the bootloops with all these themes was being caused by the api level being changed. Maybe that will mean more to the dev you are working with to fix it than it does to me. Good luck
Has the issue been solved with this? I was running Cobalt and kept having terrible bootloops. Same as described here. Love the theme(s) but certainly not at the expense of not being able to boot my Rezound. Running LiquidSmooth (4.3.1) 2.3.7, s-off...the goods.
