[Q] Vibration problem - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

Currently, I have CM9's stable build flashed, coming from AOKP (I got a little tired of the pink unicorns ) The only problem that I have with this stable build is the vibrate while screen is off (locked). It won't vibrate normally as it does when the screen is on (unlocked) when any notifications come in. It just does short and very quick pulses and I can't tell if it goes off or not.
Possible fix?

I read about this problem in another thread here like a month ago. I don't remember what they did to fix it or if it was fixed. However, I can say, that's what u get for leaving AOKP! LOL jk

ICS Ressurection V1.3 Issues.

Hi all. Been Modding my phones for a few years now. Started with an iPhone 3gs. Then moved onto a galaxy s. Ran darkys from on there and then upgraded to an s2 in Oct 2011. I've got experience in Modding but I don't have the correct authorisation to post on the main rom page. Although I'm new to posting I've been viewing this forum for years. I was running the v1.1 of the Ressurection remix rom. Only issue was random app closes and terrible battery life. I've now moved on to v1.3. I installed the stock Sammy ics firmware so went from that to 1.3. Runs like a dream. No errors at all. No force closures or nothing. Only issue is the hot keys and vibration. I want the hot keys to light up when I hit them. And then shut off after 3 seconds, like they used too. I don't want them on all the time. Even tho I have them switched off they make random appearances. And why does swagger mode keep turning on? Can the phone sense Im Swagtastic or summit? Lol.
Any help would be much appreciated.
PS. WESTCRIP doesn't deserve half the stick he's getting in main rom thread. This rom is amazing. So many customization options, speed and battery. If your not able to follow the very basic installation guides and your install went bad... then its your fault.. not his. He's produced the best version yet.
You have to wait for the next update. You can try the thoravukk kernel for the hot keys.

Thanks a lot. I'll happily wait as the rom is fantastic. A few white lights missing won't force me to downgrade the rom.

I know what you mean, amazing rom, the best i've tried by far. People seem to get the weirdest of issues on the main thread.
I am not sold on 1.3.
I had 1.1, upgraded to 1.2, went back to 1.1, upgraded to 1.3 and now back to 1.1.
My device ran much slower and battery life suffered each time I upgraded from 1.1
So far, 1.1 is the better ICS Resurrection for me.
I am trying out Foxhound now but as I am in dual boot mode, the 1.1 is here to stay unless I see a significant performance improvement on 1.3.
I used wanam(I think that's how its spelt) stock ics s2 rom. Then flashed 1.3 over that. Then gapps. Then realised I never wiped cache etc so re-flashed after wipeing cache and this rom is running amazingly. Dunno weather the way I installed made any difference or not. Personally I believe it has. This is easily twice as responsive as 1.1 and I'm also getting 4mb download speeds as apposed to 1.2mb on 1.1 in the same spot on mobile networks. 1.3 is awesome.

Does anyone have a link to the older versions and possibly a change log?

I agree with you. I'm in love with 1.3, and i see that some minor bugs are natural if you are on a bleeding edge technology like this is. 1.1 is more stable, true. But 1.3 is a beauty, the potential of aokp makes me thonk ther's gonna be way better, especially if developed by people like Wes.
I'm using thoravukk kernel. hot keys works better, not perfect. Battery is very good testing it now. You have many governors to play with and supports UC and OC.
Tell me if it helped

download link for 1.0,1.1 and 1.2 http://mirror10.downloadandroidrom.com/file/GalaxyS2/roms/ResurrectionICSROM/PRO
I had siyah on v1.1 and the battery was terrible. Get like an hour hard use(mainly mine craft pe) which was probably related to something else. whereas today I've been on 4 hours usage with like 63% remaining. Love the feature to put the clock in the center of status bar too with the day and am/pm either side of it.
The kernel that comes with 1.3 is great so far anyways. Everything is completely stable.

I was a big fan of resurrection remix v1. 1, then I was about to try v1.2 but was scared away by all the bugs etc, and plus v1.1 was very buggy, random reboots aplenty, fone becoming very hot around processors etc, so didn't bother. Now he's released v1.3 very soon after 1.2 so I decided to go a diff route & I tried Omega v9. I've been running Omega now for a week or so & I honestly love it. I its rock solid stable, and no reboots at all, had 2 fc issues but they were both caused by apex. It's got the kitchen App so many mods & customizations are only a click away. Also it just works, & I do mean everything. The dev is now working on v10 & I for one can't wait

Is it worth installing v1.3 over 1.1 in terms of peformance, battery life, stability etc...?
Have read some people seem to be happier with 1.1 but surely as a newer ROM 1.3 would be better!
i know its down to personal choice at the end of the day but just wanted to know peoples experience/opinions
Thanks
Saf
On a separete note, did my first flash yesterday to v1.1, am pretty happy i managed to do it, the rush you get....hehe!
Try Omega v9, you won't be disappointed

NO... it's not worth it. Better off going to 1.4 of RR
PS
no more bugs on 1.1 than any other roms after you installed the fixes posted - but most users are not very good at reading about bugs and the fixes for them (even when they are posted on the OP) lol.

AOK cm9 problems

Hey guys, i installed AOKP cm9 Monday night and once installed i fell in love. I came from th eclipse rom which was good but just the customization and look of AOKP is beautiful.
SO this leads me to my problems. When i flashed the rom and used it yesterday it was pretty much working great. I didnt use the dialer much so i dont know if t was happening then or just started. It seems if i call someone and the screen goes black due to the proximity sensor it will not come back after to end the call or when i pull the phone away from my face. I have to constantly press the power button to unlock the phone then i can click end then the screen locks again and have to swipe unlock to get back into the phone. This is a major PITA and wondering if it is a known bug or am i the only one.
Also from looking at the official thread here it states the camera is working but mine does not.
NVM just got it going
Also wondering when i was using elclispe and would go into rom toolbox > build.prop tweaks i could adjust about 7 things such as prox sensor and such. Now i only have 4 lcd, ring delay vmheap, scan interval. Why do i only get 4 tweaks versus the 7 i had before.
Add: Also i just noticed now when i get a call my screen stays blank. I had to again click the power button x amount of times to get in and now recieving a message "processcom.android is not responding. would u like to close it"
Ugghh this is so aggrevating
lso noiced in apps running im using at the highest 330-350 mb and states betwee 48-90mb free. thats to high isnt it

But for the life of me, trying to use the dialpad was nearly impossible while on a call. That helped ALOT. You can also DL Screeble in the market. That will help.

I have the same problem on my X2. You gotta go into settings and I forget where at the moment, but you have to enable hysterisis or something to that extent. I kick myself for not remembering.
As for ROM toolbox, don't use it.
COme on man you gotta remember haha what does hyterisis do and why not use rom toolbox
Sorry about that. Had to look up where DZK gave me some insight on that:
dragonzkiller said:
In CM9 (and I believe CM7) there is a setting under the brightness controls (I believe it's there, I don't have either running right now) called "hysteresis." Hysteresis is basically a "smoothing out" of what the light sensor sees and what value is actually sent to the brightness controls. Enabling that will make the screen react slower to changing light situations, but will disable (or should disable) flicker of the screen from the light sensor acting up. It might not be the problem, but it shouldn't hurt to try it out.

Also for CM7, I know you said you are on CM9, it says in the original post:
"16. Never user RomManager! (Yes it's included, but that's a CM7 thing and won't work with the DX2.)"
I've also read other areas that ROM manager is a no-no for the X2. Better to be safe than sorry.
Thanks Tally. I found where to play with hysteria and it was getting better but still doing it. I had my display or auto, for the phone to adjust display depending on the light. I turned that off and left it at 80% no matter the light and that fixed it. Wow just the auto brightness display could cause so much crap.
So i should just uninstall Rom manager, I dont usually use it anyways.
You stated in your previous post rom toolbox. Was it toolbox or manager that u are stating we shouldnt use?
Also is 300-350mb of ram ok for the phone to be using fairly regularly?
spoke to soon. It was working now its back to normal. I am ready to bodyslam this phone
Tally.. what settings did you do on your d2 to make it work correctly
Don't do it. Mine was doing exactly what you have described. Once you get it figured out, its ok. But yes... it will make you want to punt it across the room.
Your 300-350 mb of ram is ok.
I wouldn't delete it ROM manager. Just leave it as it is.

I had the best luck running CM9 mashed up- not supercharged or anything else. Others here had some luck with the V6 supercharger. Different phones just acted differently. But now that the beta version has the mash up in the build.prop just let it ride. Avoid Facebook and sites that have alot of media to load.
It really does work pretty good once you get a feel of how your phone reacts to it. Alot of the things are tolerable.
What do u mean by mashed up. Do you mean by cm9 or the aokp cm9. I am getting some really wacky stuff happening. System running real slow, screen not coming on usually from a call or sometimes when trying to unlock phone, now my VM wouldn't respond, apps taking a lot more time than usual to open. I don't know if this is the aokp from or the phone. I had the screen glitch w eclipse but not all the other stuff. I called verizon and they r willing to send out a replacement but just not sure if its the phone or rom
ok so this is weird and not sure if it is the problem. I was trying to play with anything that may affect how slow it is and once i flashed the aokp rom i downloaded a little later a cobalt theme for my theme chooser. Was running that all day and just now said " let me try putting it back to system theme" once the system them was in and everything loaded it was back to working quick again.
Now be it , it has only been a half hour but already it is what i saw first thing and the screen glitch is there but i can end calls w the power button. Would a theme make the phone act wacky?

Mashup is a flashable add on for roms. It is supposed to make things run smoother and help with the signal. Mashup is pre installed on CM9 alpha 5 and beta 1, I don't believe AOKP comes with it but Im not sure. And I had a bunch of issues with CM9, but Ive been running CM7 for months and love it. Maybe give CM7 a shot till the new ICS roms get debugged a little more.
Ok first off dont ever talk to verizon about your issues, always come to the forums... Always. Verizon doesn't know anything beyond complete stock. You need to spend time looking around the x2 forums read read read. Mashup is a mod that's right here in our dev forum very easy to apply just download the right version and flash in the appropriate recovery

[Q] ParanoidAndroid 2.+ for T-Mo VIBRANT

Good afternoon, all
Now, first off, Much *Thanks* TO PARANOID ANDROID. I'm only in here instead of the Development post for the ROM itself because I'm forced to be My post count is under 1, currently, though I've been a member (and daily visitor) here for years. >_> I've been in development since the archaic days of Android, way back to the G1... even helped with the advancement of apps such as Handcent, Missed Call (Anno's), Linda File Manager, etc... Now, before I get too off topic, I was wondering if anyone (since I can't reach the developer.. again at these rules) knew when the 2.15 PA Update would be available for the Vibrant???
I feel like it'll be in the very near future since it's already up for three other devices and this wonderful developer tends to work quite efficiently. I ask because I flashed 2.14 last night, but couldn't get my notification bar to reach the bottom of my screen (stopped maybe a CM from the bottom) in Phablet Mode (Phone + Tablet) , so I instead flashed the BlackBean-4 update by TeamBAKED. But after I finished setting up BlackBean 4.0, I recently perused the PA thread again and found a picture that suggests the Notification Bar is supposed to be like that in Phablet Mode, so now I want to flash back.. BUT, I'll be so annoyed because I feel like they'll release 2.15 after I get through flashing and setting up 2.14 lol. This ROM is kind of a big deal. Ever since I rooted/flashed the Galaxy S 4G of one of my brothers, and found Paranoid Android ICS for his phone, I wanted a version for Jellybean and other higher-end devices.. Came on here the other day to check for a BlackBean update and saw SWEET JOY that PARANOID ANDROID 2.+ existed. Anyone have any idea? Thanks in advance for help, and again, MUCH PROPS to PARANOID ANDROID
ParanoidAndroid 2.15 is uploaded

[Q] CM10 and low Volume

Hey fellas,
I updated from perfectly working CM9 last week to CM10 now. I set all volumes to MAX in the settings but have the feeling, that it's still not as loud as it used to be. I just received a phone call and wasn't really able to hear what the other person said, because it was just a notch too quiet.
I looked through the first 10 pages of every SGS2 section but couldn't find a fix. So... is anyone else experiencing this? If so, is there a solution to turn the phone sounds up? (ringer, text, alarm, calls, etc)

Maybe CM10 has that issue , go back to CM9 as i used CM9 and it was awesome experience :good:
The only sound issue that I've noticed on cm10 was using headphones...but you can use ex tweaks/stweaks to get a powerful volume using headphones!

Well.. Not really the solutions I've been looking for. Ha ha. Just as good as 'go buy a new one' or so. But hmkay, I guess I'll keep looking then! Thanks anyways

CM10 has some volume bugs. If you don't want them the statement made before is true: return to CM9
However you can indeed install another kernel that support extweaks/stweaks to turn the volume up, but in that way you loose support in the CM10 thread.
Sent from the Matrix
bummer... I really like CM10 and kind of don't want to downgrade again
I just remembered that with Lightningrom you simply had a fix - hoped to have something similar in this case so that all sorts of tweaking can stay away from me. haha!

Cm 12.1 nightly for vs985 mms issue help

I am receiving certain pictures via text in black and white when the sender(my wife) shows me that they are color. I downloaded a few dark themes and I thought that might be the issue so I went back the the stock cm theme and am still receiving the pic in black and white. I am currently on vs985 cm nightly 8/29. I tried going back to 8/27 and the issue is still there. Any suggestions are welcome. I think this might be my first post on xda and I just want to thank the community for everything. This forum is so informative and makes flashing custom roms fairly simple. Thank you everyone for all that you do!!!!
