[ROM][SGH-I777][4.0.4] CyanogenMod 9 nightly builds | DISCUSSION THREAD - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

CyanogenMod is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 4.0 (ICS), which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device.

* I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,

* before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.

CyanogenMod is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. It can be used without any need to have any Google application installed. Linked below is a package that has come from another Android project that restore the Google parts. CyanogenMod does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.
All the source code for CyanogenMod is available in the CyanogenMod Github repo. And if you would like to contribute to CyanogenMod, please visit out Gerrit Code Review. You can also view the Changelog for a full list of changes & features.
http://teamhacksung.org/wiki/index.php/CyanogenMod9:GT-I9100:Nightly:Known_issues (All the same issues as GT-I9100 as almost all the code is the same - so pointing to the GT-I9100)
THE CM-TEAM DOESN'T ACCEPT BUG REPORTS OR FEATURE REQUESTS ON NIGHTLY BUILDS!
A MISSING FEATURE IS NOT A BUG!!!
FAQs: Same as the GT-I9100 -- essentially the same code.

First time installing CyanogenMod 9 to your AT&T Galaxy S II (SGH-I777), or coming from another ROM:
- READ FAQs: http://teamhacksung.org/wiki/index.php/Experimental:GT-I9100:Frequently_Asked_Questions
- Make sure you're running SGH-I777 bootloaders only (only the ones that are specifically released for the SGH-I777 -- official Gingerbread bootloaders work fine!) and a proper working CWM like the one from CM7
- Copy GApps and CM9 ZIPs to your internal SDCard
- Boot into Recovery
- Flash CM9 zip
- Flash GApps zip
- DO A DATA WIPE / FACTORY RESET (otherwise your calendar sync will not work)
- Reboot
- Don't restore Apps using Titanium Backup!
Upgrading from earlier version of CyanogenMod 9:
- Copy CM9 ZIP to your internal SDCard
- Boot into Recovery
- Flash CM9 zip
- Wipe cache partition and dalvik-cache
- Reboot
STOP!!!

Post 4 or 1st post after atinm! Yay!
Battery life is better than when we first had kernel sources.
Good job.

I looked through the FAQ as well as known issues can't seem to find a couple problems that I am having.
1) Having to reboot my phone every couple hours due to slowdowns
2) Might be related to 1, but the accelerometer fails after an undetermined amount of time and the phone refuses to rotate unless I actually slam it into my hand. A reboot resolves it.
3) The ICS Keyboard doesn't seem to be as responsive on the Nightly build here compared to the original ones that were out before our Nightlies were released.
4) At least in Facebook, under notifications I no longer can actually select them, it's as if something moved the "button" you normally hit, up to a small miniscule part. Facebook hasn't released an update and it did work fine in the previous non nightly version so I'm assuming it might be the nightlies. Definitely not a priority but slightly irksome. (Looks like this might be an App issue, not a OS issue.)

Yeah, my Facebook notifications don't work either. I'm still a little upset over the SMS notifications not waking the screen. That's really all I want fixed.
I would assume that since the official ICS for the i777 has been leaked, virtually all of these issues will go away.

Been running the first nightly since task650 posted it from the Ported Dev. forums. Excellent start for the i77, I must say.
There are some small nags though. For example, pressing on any menu in the Settings and I see slowdowns in terms of the selection highlights. The blue highlight seems to hesitate when it fades.

Thanks dude!

I just wanted to chime in to let you know that the Facebook issue is occurring on the Shostock ICS rom RC3 for me. So it may not be CM9 related.

Hrm, I don't recall it not working for me under Task650's CM9 build from 3/23 so that's why I thought it was new. I'll see if I still have my Nandroid backup and try to see if it still exists there or not. If it does, looks like I'll have to figure out a way to contact facebook support (I think I will have better luck slaying a dragon)

Keyboard freeze
Hey
Just a bug that i found.
The default android keyboard freezes when using a hebrew layout.
I had to use a replacement (perfect keyboard) that works well
10x!

Facebook
Im using the latest AOKP and also have the facebook issue, just started yesterday. So might be an app thing.

I know FB can now roll out changes without updating the App so it is possible they messed up something. Their mobile site still works perfectly. Good to know.
