i777 Stock Music Player? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

(Fairly) new S2 user here. Gotta say, coming from an Apple device, Android is leagues ahead.
I've got a particular question regarding the music player in Samsung's stock 2.3.6/4.0.4. Is it possible to use either of these with a Jelly bean ROM? I've tried installing them both at random times, and the phone will immediately state "App Not Installed." However, I've seen people do the same thing for other stock samsung apps that work just fine.
If it helps, I'm running Jellybam 3.3.0. Patiently waiting for their servers to come back from the dead so I can get 4.0.0
Thanks in advance!

He use JellyBam.
Man, use the sony walkman that i think came with jellybam or install google play from store.
I was using that before buy poweramp that is the best player on last 12 months.
You can also try Xenoamp beta from xda. Search for it.
About sansung apps you do need to know 1 thing.
There are 2 kinds of Roms.
1- official sansung release base
2- aosp roms
Exclusive Apps from 1 wont work on 2.
Not a big deal cuz there is better options out there.

Thanks guys. After much reading and your help, I came across that conclusion.
I'm a little less noobish everyday

I got the player to work from another rom.

Check this thread - I installed this in my root folder and it works. The only thing iffy is the search function which if you select from the "suggested" items that pop up - crashes the app. But if you type it in and hit the search button (not the suggested) it works flawlessly.

Used it on CM Mod9,10. JellyBAM, and AOKP roms.
All working except for that small bug in the search.

You guys should check out Mediamonkey, it's pretty bad ass.

[Q] calkulins Rom

i just noticed that the "My Apps" button in the market now looks like a phone and says "sprint"
If i click on it it doesn't take me to my apps.
Anyone else having this problem?
That's normal for this build. If you click on your Menu, you'll find My Apps there.
Thanks you were right
Best ROM on XDA
+1
I'm really enjoying this ROM. The speed of the machine is phenomenal.
Love the Rom ad well but can't seem to get the market updated or to show all apps. Any thoughts?
I've tried market enabled to no avail.
Issue with ROM or with G-Tab?
I've noticed that if I let the g-tab go to sleep, I'm having to reboot it get it to wake up.
Is anyone else having this issue? I've had my tablet since x-mas, but have nto used it much. It sat in a desk drawer for about 2 months, and I'm just now getting into using it.

I have this issue with every rom ive tried on my gtab. So now I pretty much just install clem's kernel everytime. Plus it gives me CIFS so I can stream media from my windows pc .

Yeah, again it's just the build. There are a ton of hacks that will get you more of the market, but I doubt you'll ever get "everything". Considering that the GTab wasn't blessed by Google, we're lucky to have the devs here to get the market at all.

Another issue with this ROM. Some have fixed it by going to Clemsyn's kernel, others to Pershoot's and still others by using CPU Master Free. Personally, I just set my tab's Screen Timeout to Never. What can I say...I like simple.

I agree. The only problems I see with it are no news and weather widget like on tnt, and the horrible photo album (I think it's from stock?)
Fireware
This may be a stupid question, so I am sorry if it is, but Calkulins v1.1 says it is "Based on rooted 2.2 / FRF91 - TnT 3991"...
so can you run it on the 1.1-3588 firmware, or will that brick?
Again, sorry for my ignorance...
Thanks!
ROM's and Firmware are the same thing. If you're asking whether you can use ClockworkMod or standard recovery, the answer is yes. Calkulin's ROM is a hybrid using the newer 3991 build for features but the older bootloader and recovery. It shouldn't cause you any trouble loading it over 3588.
Thanks! Sorry, I confused the firmware with bootloader, thanks for straightening that out!
No problem. Just want to make sure that I understand the question correctly. Happy modding!
All Done!
Woot!! I will say, I bought this on the woot! deal... and although I consider myself very computer savvy, I have never rooted/hijacked/whatever a device before...
Happily this was super easy! I wanted use the stock ROM for a bit to get familiar with it, but I just couldn't stand how slow/unresponsive/just crappy it was!!
So I jumped the gun and started in... luckily I did a lot of reading first!!
Loaded up Clockworkmod - and made a backup first!! lol
Used clockworkmod to install Calkulins ROM---OMG is it fast!!
The found that I was having the sleep-death issue... so I loaded up Clemsyns Kernel Too!!
Not a single hiccup! Even for a noob- this is super easy! Just follow all the great advice on the XDA forums (and don't skip steps!) and you can't screw it up.
Thanks to all the great people on here, for the hard work, and patience... I love seen good communities like this!
DeadEnd
Which version of Clemsyns is recommended?
Hi,
clakulins ROM is my prefered ROM so far
But, it needs some issues to be addressed to make it my daily driver.
1- sleep-to-death
I know we can use another kernel to fix this (so I keep this fix for later if everything else can work)
2- Settings/Family accounts/add member
This FC every single time. I definitly need this functionality. My Gtab being a family device....
3- Photos is horrible as previosuly pointed out in this thread. I want a centralized place for all my photos, or at least for local storage + picasa. With this gallery, we can only access picasa public albums. What about my own account !!!
4- Photos started to display pictures roatated one quarter to the left. It doesnt let me re-rotate them back to original. It does that for evey single picture, i cant fix this. Photos is now unusable
I tried a few Photos gallery apps from the market (6-7 so far). None of them works to my liking.
I just want somethings simple that get access to all my pics.
5- Cant play videos anymore. Not even the sample 'car' and 'king kong' that came with the Gtab.
If I can fix all of the above, calkulin will be my only and permanent ROM.
(ps items 4 and 5 were previously working ok in this ROM, this started yesterday)
Also, another things that is on my whish list:
- Have bluetooth HID
I have this blutooth keyboard collecting dust on the used parts shelve that I would like to use with the Gtab
thank you calkulin for all,
So, I decided to install clemsyn kernel to fix this sleep-death problem.
No problem installing, everything went well.
But now instead of comlaining that it cant play videos, it just FC on every videos I try to play.
I feel a complete reinstall will be necessary.

[Q] Galaxy Tab 10.1 WIFI - Best Root/ROM?

I'm trying to read up and figure out what the best root/rom is for the Galaxy Tab. I'm not new to rooting -- I've got an Evo 4G and a Nook Color both rooted and running custom ROMs.
Really, honestly - I like the Honeycomb in the Tab 10.1, except the Touchwiz launcher. That thing bugs the crap out of me - *it never goes away*. Watch a video in fullscreen? Sure, fullscreen except the launch bar. OH hey, I'll take out the icons, but I'll still be here.
I'm sure I'd probably like ICS at some point, when it's more stable -- but for now, I'd be content with a custom ROM that is honeycomb-like, close to stock - but where I can ditch the touchwiz garbage. Is stable, isn't flaky, or filled with a ****-ton of skulls and retarded sound notifications made by a 13 year old death-head.
So - any suggestions?
edit: as a side note, I want things to work like AllShare, Netflix, Youtube, etc. I've used different DLNA apps in the past, and frankly I think Allshare is the smoothest of the bunch. Sucks that we don't have Hulu+ for the tab, but I can do without that.

Just got it flashed and everything appears to be working just fine aside from the camera (which is mentioned in the post regarding this ROM), but other than that... It's pretty smooth, man. Not gonna lie.

[Q] JellyBam 4.0.0 A few questions

Hey xda,
this is my first post. yaiks :fingers-crossed:
i got a few questions regarding the JellyBam ROM. I'm using Version 4.0.0 on my S3 International (previous T-Mobile Germany, but now unbranded).
Since now i've tried a lot of different ROM's looking if they suit my needs/wants. For now i stick with JellyBam
However there are a few things were i need some information on:
1. I'd like to have the "stock" camera app and gallery, cause i dont really like the aosp camera app.
It has just not the look i want and at the moment it's lacking a lot of options as well.
Ofc i know that there are some Camera Mods that bring the "old" camera back, but i dont seem to get them working. I've tried like four.
If i'm correct, it's actually the Note 2 Camera, right? So could someone tell me which camera mod actually should work with JellyBam ROM?
Don't need links, just the mod name. This way i can be sure that it has to work and its me who is doing it wrong
2. I also want the stock music player back, cause Apollo is, in my eyes, just bs. I didn't went from iPhone to Samsung to have the same stupid music handling. No folder view.....i mean, really?
Copy some music to your sd, switch to player and select the one you want to hear, that's how it should be done.
But with Apollo you only get the option Album, Artist, Title and Playlist. I don't want to make a playlist, when i can put different tracks in one folder.
And most of us probably have a lot of music, where the id tags are not correct...
So is there a mod for the stock player? That would be really nice!
3. Is there a mod for DLNA? Since i dont seem to find it now, with the AOSP ROM. This was pretty handy with my samsung TV
4. I'm using MPE for communication with my pc. However, i only can look through my S3 via MPE. But in the explorer it wont show up. Everytime i connect the phone it says "missing hardware id".
De-/Reinstalling drivers, etc. didnt work. It's not really a problem. But i just dont like work-arounds.
I also need to have the USB-Debugging turned on all the time, otherwise MPE wouldnt connect as well. Does someone has any ideas on that problem?
Thanks in advance. I hope you gents/ladies can help me out.
Cheers,
goop.Q
//bump
Anyone?
you can't have any samsung apps, like camera and player, on non-samsung roms like CM, which JellyBam is based on.
Why are you using an outdated version?

Well i'm aware of that all you say.
But as far as i know you are wrong at the same time. there are mods that bring some of those stock apps back to the ROM, sammy-based or not.
And that should go for the camera as well.
For the version thing:
JellyBam 5.x.x is based on AOSP 4.2.x
Version 4.x.x is based on 4.1. and is much more stable at the moment.
Just because there comes a leak every third day or so doesnt mean, i have to get all the updates.
especially when the FW is working fine. why should i want to tweak on my phone forever?
not the camera, and not the player. it won't work on non-Sammy ROMs unless it specifically says that it's been ported
Ok thanks. Will loook for that.

Re: [ROM][UNOFFICIAL] Stock JellyBean 4.1.2 V4

Re: [ROM][UNOFFICIAL] Stock JellyBean 4.1.2 V4
Does this ROM not support multi taking? When I played a song and opened another app (agent dash) the song stops playing and when I exit the app It goes to the home page and the launcher reloads. The same thing happens even when I browse.
Am I the only one who has this problem? :\

Unfortunately this is case, although depending on what apps you need on your phone you may be able to get a more usable rom by removing things you don't want such as Facebook, Twitter, etc.
I have v3 of that rom and have removed a lot of the apps that came pre-installed as I simply don't want them. Also, certain kernels will help, (such as the experimental v8 kernel) and can also be configured to use zram which will help slightly, although it's not perfect. Even with all of the above I regularly get launcher redraws after web browsing or playing a game.
... there's a reason Sony didn't release Jelly Bean on our device.
The good news is that some real progress is being made on various versions of Cyanogenmod, so while Sony may have given up on us, it's not time to go out and buy a new phone quite yet!

To be honest I'm a big fan of Sony's UI. My other half has a Samsung Galaxy and although I will say that it feels much more fluid than my phone to use, I'd still rather have my phone, just working better! Such a shame that Sony underspec'd the hardware, but then this is nothing new -- I've had three other Sony (Ericsson) phones and they've all been underspec'd. You'd have thought by now I'd have learned my lesson!

Stable roms?

Can everyone post a list of stable roms for I717? I don't like going through the trouble of backing up all my data and flashing a new rom only to have it crash multiple times per day and have something like bluetooth not work reliably at all. Maybe some people enjoy playing with that (a lot of the most popular roms at the top of the forum are like this), but I don't!
I'll start the list and say that Beanstalk 4.4 is extremely stable, only had it reset on me twice in one year, and bluetooth works 100%. Only issue is that you can't move apps to SD so you run out of space quick (thanks to kitkat). I'd love to find something above kitkat this stable...
And I'll add some that I have tried and failed:
Candy5: No matter what Gapps I tried (yes pico etc), none of them installed and even after going through every suggestion in the thread I could not get a simple google play installed. Stock browser crashes every 2 minutes.
Pac-rom: Promising but crashes 10+ times per day. Often does not power on unless you boot into recovery and select reboot. GPS is terrible, google maps often loses it's place and gives turn-by-turn directions 60 seconds too late. Stock browser crashes all the time as well.
CM: Bluetooth reliability is terrible. Quincyatt not updated since 2014.
Sounds like you should stick with beanstalk or return the device to stock. When you rooted your device, it opened up security issues so it'll never be as solid as you'd like. What hasn't been updated since 2014?

CM for I717.
I don't like going back to stock because IMO it's less secure (heartbleed is a pretty big security hole). If you leave root access disabled and don't download shady apps a custom rom isn't any more insecure.

Yes, I tried every suggestion in the thread and it still didn't work. After trying pac-rom for a couple days (and having it crash 20+ times) I just tried wiping it and flashing candy again, and now Gapps with google play worked the first time with no troubleshooting. Shrug.
Seems rock-solid so far though. Can't post in that thread since I have too few posts, so one question, if I do the OTA download for the new 4.0, can I just flash it on top of my 3.9 version or do I need to wipe everything and start over? Also, under Settings, Apps, if I click an app and move to SD card, it will sit there and say "moving" forever. If I exit settings and come back sometimes the app will actually show moved to SD list though.
And the stock calendar app doesn't seem to let me log in, it says "Sign in to get the most out of your device". Then I enter the email I've always used and it says "This account already exists on your device." But there's no other way to actually select that account. What am I doing wrong?

Don't do the OTA yet since BB won't let me upload my roms. The ota notification is a fluke. You'll have to flash the rom fresh between trying to find the right gapps which will work on your device. Candy is the most stable of all my builds currently.

Still can't post in the main thread but:
-If you turn on "Directly show pattern view", nothing shows on the lock screen besides the dots (time, weather, owner info, notifications).
-I had the dreaded bluetooth bug happen the other day, do you get many reports of this? (bluetooth stops working while streaming music, and does not turn back on until a phone reset).
-Stock calendar cannot be logged into (edit: just installed the google calendar from the app store which worked fine)
Unfortunately these are all deal breakers for me but I really like the rom otherwise, I don't want to switch back
Any way to enable HDMI output? (I have the adapter which worked before).

I heavily utilize the "Move to SD card" option because otherwise the default storage doesn't hold more than 10 or so apps, but I've had a problem with Candy5 twice now where my phone will crash, and upon reboot, all the apps that were moved to SD card are gone. Anyone else encounter this?
I wish I could post in the normal thread.
Installed the latest Candy5 20151031, did a complete wipe of everything per the instructions, and after installing 1 app (gmail), the phone reboot the first time gmail opened while placing the gmail widget down.
Here's a list of ROMs I've tested:
BlackSTAR XI - Best ROM for the i717. Super stable and fast.
CM Official - Good, but very buggy. SD card breaks, phone reboots often, HW overlays, etc.
Padawan - Not much new here, just a simple modded version of stock. Very stable but not too fast.
Candy5 - Very laggy, as LP is still in development for i717.
CM11 Unofficial - A bit laggy, HW overlays.
All in all I'm a huge fan of BlackSTAR XI, best ROM I've seen so far.

Padawan - Not much new here, just a simple modded version of stock. Very stable but not too fast.
Candy5 - Very laggy, as LP is still in development for i717.
CM11 Unofficial - A bit laggy, HW overlays.
All in all I'm a huge fan of BlackSTAR XI, best ROM I've seen so far.
