[Q] ICS Issues not in sticky (that i saw) - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

I have been a big fan of xda for a really long time. I have never needed to actually obtain a username because almost everything can be found with the search function. Problem is I have ran into a couple things that I can't resolve myself with playing around reflashing/factory resets.
Just as a Pre Req - I am using a Samsung i727 on AT&T updated to the leak the day it came out - Have since ran two different Roms
-NexusMod-ICS-Beta-3
- ICSMOD5
I experienced the following problems with the leak and both Roms. I'm just wondering if I'm missing a fix for any of this, or if it is simply something that the wonderful DEV's here have not gotten to. Obviously there are other issues, but in reading threads these are the ones that I have not heard anyone address. I have heard them mentioned, but never addressed.
1. I have a Sony Bluetooth Audio Head Unit in my car. Every ROM I ever flashed for GB I was able to get the A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile) to work and send the artist/album/song title to my unit. This no longer works and seems to have some serious dropping issues from time to time. As well as a very slow next or back function (all of which was not there with GB).
2. I CANNOT fix permissions. I always try first in CWM (which I have updated and paid for the new touch version) and every time I try click on fix permissions it says done instantly as well as when I clear Dalvik it shows as E: is not found or accessible. I have re-flashed, went back to ICS leak with Odin, used the DarkSide Wipe, went back to gingerbread, flashed to ICS leak, flashed to NexusMod. Still cannot fix permissions. In ROM manager it will just hang up and never finish. I read all the time about people *fixing permissions* in ICS. I have never been able to.
Any insight that any of you could give me on any of these issues would be greatly appreciated. I understand that this is my first post and TBH I'm kinda sad that I actually have to post. For so long you had everything already addressed, and may very well have already addressed this. But my eyes are exhausted, and I feel as though I have checked all my resources.
In short thank you for all that you guys do, and look forward to maybe one day being able to help you.

It seems that the newer versions of CWM are somewhat iffy on some devices (like mine.) I would try a few different versions. I've personally only had luck with the custom version from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1472954
Following the exact same steps and only changing the versions of CWM I got permissions fixed. Hopefully you'll be in the same boat
I have no idea on the Bluetooth issue, most of what I've seen with ICS/Bluetooth has been positive. You might try using a bluetooth.apk from another ICS build with similar hardware (I have no idea what Bluetooth chip we're running.) I think the version from GB probably isn't compatible, but knowing myself I'd probably try it just to make sure.

Also install busybox from the market and run it it might help

Thank you for the quick comments. I am not familiar with BusyBox, but I will make myself familiar and post back with my findings
I will also try that version of CWM touch and report back with my finding's on that.
When you refer to bluetooth.apk How would this be installed? Just from zip in CWM or like a regular downloaded app not via the market? What would be your best suggestions other than the .apk from GB that I will of course try first. The i989 one from there ICS leak? The i777? Just trying to get ideas on what I should be searching for at this point.
Again thank you

Honestly, I don't know what version of the apk you'd want to use, because it's going to depend on the bluetooth chip manufacturer. I'd say something else by samsung shuold be a good place to start
To install, you'd just back up the bluetooth.apk in /system/app using a root file explorer, and drop in the replacement, then reboot

BusyBox has resolved my Fix Permissions issue. Thank you nrm5110!
I am going to try and find the GB BT.apk somewhere and attempt to see if that fixes the issue.
Again thank you for the insight...

GB Bluetooth has multiple .apk files
-BluetoothAvrcp.apk
-BluetoothOpp.apk
-BluetoothPbap.apk
-BluetoothTestMode.apk
-BrcmBluetoothServices.apk
Tried moving the stock ICS Bluetooth.apk out and replacing it with all of these. Needless to say it FC's on all them repetitively.
Then tried another Bluetooth.apk that I found here:
had to remove this because apparently I'm not aloud to put a link in here
This made the Phonebook portion start working for me, but it still is not sending the tags to the unit. I had an idea to maybe try the old music player and see if that made a difference, because it never worked with googlemusicplayer or Pandora only worked with the stock music player in GB. I am back from lunch now though so unfortunately it will have to wait for my next break to see if it makes a difference.
I do hope to be able to help and be an active member. Though most of the things I know now I only learned from reading what XDA has posted. I will say that trying to post with these almost impossible Image Verification things is rather annoying.

All your issues with the site go bye bye after so many posts

Im having the same issues with my cd player. I tried installing the old music player from gb and it wouldnt ever open. Looking for the same solution.

Alright, so... First off I want to say thank you to burgeswe for the idea of trying other Bluetooth apks.
Second off I want to say thank you to MysticKing32 and his Rom Mystic'sPrideICS (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1560763) for the bluetooth apk's that I copied from them and installed into M0D1441's NexusMod-ICS-Beta-3 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1574675). This made all tagging work. No issues with Bluetooth dropping on my 35 min drive home and works just fine with DSPManager running.
There are four files from MysticKing32's rom that I copied. These files are:
-Bluetooth.apk
-Bluetoothavrcp.apk
-BluetoothTest.apk
-BluetoothMap.apk
I did not try with the Bluetooth.apk from the stock build so that one may not need replaced/copied. I removed the Bluetooth.apk from system>apps and put these four apks in its place.
Hope this helps someone.. Now does anyone have a fix for ATT Visual Voicemail. After I finally fix that issue I will be dailying NexusMod but some of these things were very important to me..
Thank you again

It just keeps spinning on please wait when I put in the passkey. I'll try wiping.. Did you use Titanium to do this?

This is what I always get even after wiping multiple times and calling and going through a bunch of saved messages that made me laugh hysterically and saving them again.. Lol good times, I would recommend other people doing this as well seeing as there was a lot of VM I had forgotten about.

Hmmm, I'm not sure what's happening. Can you remove the app entirely, then clear dalvik cache, reinstall?

This worked for me.. Thank you again.. Officially my daily driver now.. All the things I fixed thanks to xda and its members.
-Visual Voicemail Now Working (uninstalled/cleared dalvik/re-downloaded from store)
-Bluetooth sends tags now (If you look up in the thread I put instructions)
-Can now fix permissions (BusyBox install)
-Shut Down/Restart working (multiple flashes of NexusMod/odin stock ucalc)
-MMS delete fixed (multiple flashes of NexusMod/odin stock ucalc)
Only thing that is kinda iffy from time to time is the POS Radio from UCALC4, but that is something I'm assuming has no full write up for/I would not be able to resolve the issue.

This is just asking for trouble. You are overwriting and deleting system files that are in use.

its not naysaying, but the first person people hit up is krylon when they brick their phones, and he's just trying to limit that until they come up with a SURE FIRE way to do it. Dont take it as an insult
I wouldn't have posted it unless I thoroughly tested it on my own phone. My only thing is don't come in criticizing people who are trying if you've been gone for 2 weeks while everyone else has been trying to figure this out. It may not be the way Krylon would do it, but it works. And if for some reason it doesn't for you, by all means, flash back to stock. The risk is worth the reward.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App
perhaps if you would read my tweets, you would see why I was gone for 2 weeks.
As far as being negative, I'm not. I'm saying this isn't a good idea due to the fact you are deleting proprietary system files/drivers that are currently in use, which results in a hardware failure. This poses a risk of burning/frying the hardware or causing the drivers you are copying back over to become corrupt.
Here is an easier/safer way to do this.
Download MagicISO, Download my Tar (which I think you already have), and download the deodexed rom.
Extract the tar
Open MagicISO
within magic, open factoryfs.rfs (you will need to change the drop down to look for all files)
This opens /system
delete app and framework dir's
open the deodexed /system
copy over app and framework dir's into magic
close, retar everything you extracted from the original

Download and install cygwin if you dont have linux installed.

I guess the next question I have is the simplest way to take what I have now and move it to a GB install. My main goal is to keep all my SMS and MMS, and have an easy time reinstalling my purchased apps. I was planning on going with the latest ZEUS, it has bluetooth, dock audio output, and, the camera works I assume Thanks for taking the time to answer the main question, helping me with the SMS/MMS storage/recovery would be wonderful if you have a sec

Ohhh... You're oh so helpful with that comment!!!! Surprised nobody has "Thanked" your helpful post.
Anyways, I too had this problem with HFS v1.4 and did not find a solution. I did have my APN set to T-Mobile, so I don't believe that was the problem. My issue was also present with WiFi turned on, even with WiFi Calling turned on (Although I don't believe WiFi Calling has anything to do with it).
I never got a chance to debug the issue further as I had a need for the Video Camera to operate properly, and switched back to a GB ROM for the time being.
I'll re-flash my v1.4 of HFS and see if I can check the logs to see if anything is there.

Cheesecake not working on SCV6 + questions about Auto cheesecake I am making

Well it seems cheesecake is not working on scv6. Even on the production server, it fails every time to check updates!!! any ideas?
More importantly I am creating an auto cheesecake app, but I need some help. I have phydo's original source and that is what I have been building off of. His app just starts an event, or what ever you want to call it that is built in to the phone (the cloud switcher thing that pops up. My question is what does that even change. it does not seem to change the same xml that is used for the manual method, but to automate things I really need to figure out what that does so I can do it myself.

I have mine all scripted... I will PM you what I have, then maybe we can come up with something more user friendly.... My script just replaces the XML with a new file with the next server in line to check, then runs the update check from the command line on the phone. not pretty, but it works in both cron and with tasker.
I would not write an app or apk for this, it could all be 100% behind the scenes to the user, and maybe an app that could change the frequency and/or turn the cron on or off.... just some thoughts, we can throw some more ideas around here too.

I thought about just doing a script but I went with an apk for a few reasons. first, many users here might have trouble figuring out how to use that right, and we want as many people as possible. I am also trying to get better with java, so this was a good simple starter project that is still useful to people.
I will try to include a way to set it to check at certain times.
I think we should set up a schedule as for who will check at what time so that we don't miss things. Maybe I should create an open google calendar and everyone can add the time they want to check to better our odds of getting an update. let me know what you all think
I mentioned in another thread, but this thread seems appropriate....
I haven't had any luck with any of the cheesecake servers for a couple weeks now--since the weekend of the searet ics leak. Before that I would get various servers all the time and plenty of "your device is up to date" messages.
I try several times a day at various times ( ~4am, ~11am, ~4pm PST ) and haven't gotten a server once since that weekend.
I've been wondering if Moto has changed something on their end...its quite an easy thing to change DNS entries ans/or server hostnames and/or IP addresses and/or usernames...
So I've been wondering...
Where does cheesecake get its servername info? How does it resolve the servernames? What user is it using?
FWIW, I'm on lithium v1.2 (and have been since back in April).

I've been checking Cheesecake servers just fine for the past couple of days, though I am on stock. I still believe that being on a stock build is crucial.

Well it seems cheesecake is not working on scv6. Even on the production server, it fails every time to check updates!!! any ideas?

Been seeing this more and the only explanation that I can come up with is that the ROM is de-odexed? Im running Romulus, which is odexed. I have no problems.
Although I doubt it.

I had no problem when I was on lithium, which is de-odexed, so I m confused

Perplexing. Quite.
However I would love to be a part of the "cheesecake calendar" if I can!

Thanks!
My bad, in youtube play, no green screen, with following error message:
"There was a problem while playing."
It seems /system/lib/hw has right file (18064 bytes in size). Here is a log.
Thanks for looking into it .

no for my install.
Really liking this one so far. The power management tools are really nice, and so are the themes, I just wish I could read Chinese - the theme manager is great, but the TapasHot app store or whatever seems to confuse me Also, whenever you update the OP, you might take out "wifi" under major bugs, since it's fixed already.
Thanks for another bad ass ROM!

Ok I followed the instructions for installing the rom and love it but, I lost all contacts on sim card. I'm guessing I might have made a mistake. Can anyone suggest a way of recovering them? By the way they were saved to sim.
You didn't save them to Google?
There's no recovery if they're wiped from you're sim .....try saving them to Google next time,you'll be glad you did.
just flashed a different rom and they are on the sim and show up but for some reason they wouldnt show up in tapasOS even when I tried to import them from sim it would say there wasnt any.Would like to use this rom.
Like I said....back them up on Google...and use this rom if that's what your hang up is...if your not gonna use this rom based solely cuz it wont read your contacts from your sim...then your comment about really wanna use this rom isn't true when there's several ways of backing up your contacts and making it happen.
That is such a BS statement if I ever heard one..."I would like to use this rom". But do nothing on your own to make it happen..
Come on people use some common sense and do something on your own without someone holding your hand.
I have been trying to remedy this on my own all day by reading and trial and error. I guess you can feel like a tough guy behind the internet.
Dyin' over here! I
To rephrase the advice given earlier (since sixstring will likely cut out all of those posts later) in whatever rom will read your contacts, back them up to your Gmail account. That way, you'll always have access to them on any rom.

This is a known issue with cm7, cm7 is the base if this ROM. A little reading in the forums and you would have know what to do...
No need to knock the ROM, it's your 'ish

I by no means was knocking the rom, I said that I probably made a mistake. All I was doing was asking a question and things got blown way out of proportion. I have read on here everyday. Again I like to experiment with things. I will never ask another simple question.
lets keep it civil here people. no name calling. no replying to name calling either. just makes matters get out of hand quickly.
thread cleaned.
is it worth buying?
