Just noticed DCD 4.1 is up on his site. Will probably try it this weekend. Anyone try it yet?
I posted this earlier a couple people have tried it.

I agree DCD, and I'm sure a lot of others do too. Post here or somewhere else. If you go somewhere else, leave us some breadcrumbs so we can find you.
I gave it a try, seems to run well. About 23meg on start up. Anyone else?
same here 23 mb on start up - with app. s2u2, GPS, TomTom, call calendar, s2p,and more .....
runs smoth ...thanks DCD
Gonna try this NOW....
SDAutoRun issue?
has anyone else had a problem with UC? this rom seems awesome 27.32mb on clean boot, but UC seems to hang and isnt installing anything. anyone else?
EDIT: nevermind. 1 damn symbol missing from my code.
I'm using this rom now and I don't have any problems yet. I'll post updates if I do.
same here. loving it so far
Were the vouge dialers calc and comm manager removed? They seemed to be when I flashed...
I also had a HUGE text msg problem where it tried to (and did) resend a TON of my unsuccessful texts and from months back...this was just after I did a simple restore with Pim Backup, it never happened on any other release.
My free mem was also less than 3.3.4, and 3.3.4 has 48.25 total whereas 4.1 only has 47.45MB total.
So, I'm still rocking 3.3.4 and loving it. I'll wait till DCD officially releases it as sometimes, he just posts things up there as beta tests for friends.
so heres a new one. my phone just HARD RESET itself. i noticed my text messages didnt have contacts anymore, tried opening my contacts and it said it oculdnt be found. i opened resco explorer to restore my contacts, and it said it couldnt be found. i soft reset the phone and it loaded the calibration screen and went through UC again. ****.
Text messages that have been read show up as NOT being read. I'm using Manila 2d, so I have to scroll through them a few times and they will finally be marked at read. Pretty annoying. I had to flash back to 3.3.4.
Neurom3 did that same thing, plus battery life with Neurom3 is horrible.
I don't see any problems with text messages, I don't see why people are complaining.
a) no one is complaining. just reporting
b) the problem is, every text message must basically be selected in order to save it as read. if you get 2 txts at the same time from 1 person, and open it, the 1st txt received will stay in bold us unread, unless you scroll up with the pad, passed the second text, and let the cursor land on or go above the contact's name. so this also means that if you have a pretty old text message that you never selected, you either have to delete the chain, or scroll up through pages to find your 1 unread text.

Hmm, I haven't that problem really, though maybe I just automatically do that. But I have BAD (black hole) reception at my house so if I try and send a text it usually says message not sent, click to try again. So it's never automatically resent texts and this time it was apparently successful sending 50 texts over hours of time - which I didn't know about.
I tried his one from Dec25th but it had the new IE app which I didn't like since I use lots of websites that work nice and fast with older pocket IE. The dialer and connection manager skins were also ugly. Haven't seen those in a long time...
After I flashed the new 4.1.0 ROM, everything seemed to be fine except the number 1 button on the dialer keypad disappeared. Has anyone experienced that? Is there a solution for the problem?
I'm pretty new to this phone, but the other day, I had to hard reset it.. The problem is, that when i'm texting people in conversation mode, when i send a message, it doesn't appear at the bottom of the list like it should, but rather at the top, with all my other sent messages..
This is getting rather annoying, because if i forget what I've text, i have to scroll all the way up to the top to see what i put..
Is there a way to fix this? I've tried deleting the thread, and it still does the same thing :/
Help would be appreciated!
I had same problem and finally flashed this new ROM. was easy to follow and fixed it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=651729
I have searched all the forums, all the sites i could possible look into, but i couldnt find one thing.
Yesterday i rooted my phone, instaled JellyBam custom rom, which is awesome etc. But one thing keeps buging me. Before this, i used simple stock rom, and used stock app to send sms. There was like a whole tab of simple android heads smileys, where i could have spammed them and click like letters. And now what, all i can do is to acces through menu and click and insert only one smiley. if i want to add more i have to repeat the same actions again and again, its quite annoying. Is there a way to make a button which would show whole smileys layout?
P.S. I'd like to use Emojis but most of people im texting doest have it, so they see just squares.
Also, when i make a call or take a call, and talk, i can hear my own voice through speakers where i should hear only callers voice, this never happened with Stock rom and kernel. Any thoughts?
Hi there, long time lurker first time flasher (oo-er)
I put the ICS rom on my phone by xball and loved it (still to remove bloat etc and will probably wait untill both cameras are fixed before keeping it) however....
One thing that doesnt seem mentioned in the topic or anywhere else on google i can find is in ICS when using messaging i have an inbox, outbox and spam tab. There doesnt seem to be any way to switch it to conversation mode (that i can see) the same way it worked in GB. Have i missed something with this rom?
A second question, not as important but ill bolt it on. I backed up all my texts using SMS backup and restore, yet when i restore them in ics, they don't appear. some research suggests its to do with the way that ICS now handles a "database" of sms records is there any easy way of restoring them from the SMSBaR xml file?
Cheers
Mozzy.
It's been a week now and I still can't send any text messages.
I receive msgs but unable to respond back...
I thought it was because I finally updated to Jellybean (I've had ICS for awhile so I thought I should just stick to that) but then I downgraded last night to ICS and I still can't send messages.
well today I tried fixing it but still no luck, although I tried sending an MMS instead, I sent myself a picture and it worked! even tried it to other numbers and they received it. I also tried adding a text with the picture and it did work. but it's still not working when I just type in a text...
so anyway in short, I can't send SMS but can send MMS (and receive messages as well)
also extra: I can call people but whenever they call me it comes up as unknown number...
Does anyone of you know what might be the problem? How can I fix it? Thanks
EDIT: and btw I already checked the message centre number and it has the right number in it so I don't think the issues w/ that
I suggest using titanium backup to store user apps and data, then using mr.cook's rom wipe script to allow you to start from a blank slate, then re-install the desired firmware (whatever version)
You could work at fixing this issue individually, but (to me) it's a sign that something more fundamental went wrong, and that other issues may be soon to follow.
It isn't clear whether you upgraded to a stock jellybean, or maybe a 4.1.2 custom jellybean, or maybe a 4.2.2 custom jellybean, or a 4.3 jellybean. The latter, a 4.3 upgrade from ICS has the highest potential for weird issues if a thorough rom-wipe isn't conducted... whichever path was taken, The i777 runs all versions of jellybean well, and something like this suggests that the "upgrade" was not conducted from a clean slate, hence the suggestion for a rom-wipe and re-install.

can't text
Are you unable to text because a keyboard won't open? My daughter couldn't text (never figured out why - she always had a keyboard appear) so she got a replacement, and when I inherited her phone because mine has battery issues, I go through periods when I can't text because no keyboard appears. I have to into settings and play around with assigning a default keyboard before it will finally appear. Doesn't matter if I'm using the stock keyboard or one I've downloaded from a VERY reliable source - I still have to reassign and reassign and reassign to make it work. Powering off the phone doesn't do a thing.
