[Q] ICS Camera and changing kernal in superlite-5.1 - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

Hey guys,
I am new to all of this but managed to successfully flashed the superlite-5.1 rom to my Rogers Galaxy S2. Big thank you to mhx (I tried donating but your paypal wouldn't accept because in not in the US)
The Rom is working fine but there are a couple of features that it doesn't contain that interest me.
1. The camera app - Is it possible to have the same camera that's available on the stock ICS (with the live video effects...)
2. Can I flash romracers kernal with this rom? I only want to do this for bln support. Is there another way I can get bln?
Sorry if my question sounds dumb, I have spent the last couple days reading through the forum trying to educate myself with the android dev.
Thank's for all your help

No not until we get kernel source, no bln

AOSP camera is available, check the aosp apps thread, and as xcrazy said, no bln til we get source. And yes u can of course use romracer kernel with mhx, i thought that was the default one anyway. If its not mhx is using mohan_kr's, which for your purposes is identical, no real point in switching

pretty sure he is talking about romracers gb kernel, which would not work with ics.
romracers unsecure ics kernel is fine to flash, but if hes using superlite, he is already using that kernel.

I flashed the AOSP camera from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1573221
It flashed fine but the camera is still the same. Are the video effects that the nexus have got not available for S2 roms yet?

what video effects are you talking about?

That's just an ICS themed camera. You can try Camera ICS+ on play store. Still needs work though but it does have the video effects.

Sometimes it worked, sometimes it crashed. You can send them an email, the dev is responsive. I'll do the same and maybe he'll fix it. He's trying to make it compatible with most phones.

[ROM][EI22]MostlyStock Rebuild | 11/17

Obviously, as with everything here, you SHOULD take caution before flashing this. However, if you DON'T, and something goes wrong, then it is in no way my or anyone else's fault.
I rebuilt this ROM.
What's changed:
-Updated the kernel to version v0.0.2. (nubecoder)
-Added the 3G/1x icon fix. (SenseiSimple)
-Added Hotspot hack. (Tortel1210/Necrosan)
-Added the Camera sound fix. (IcePlanet)
-Removed some Sprint/Samsung bloat (suggest more to remove if you want).
-Added CRT off.
-Added a 1% battery mod.
And of course, the old goodies:
-Deodexed
-noCIQ (k0nane)
-LogsProvider Fix (Tortel1210)
-GPS Fix (hienkhieu)
-Extended Power Menu (untermensch (I also borrowed the icons for the menu from him. Hope you don't mind!))

Video from qbking77:
Old Links:
Update 4 (added Extended Power Menu)
Update 3 (added LogsProvider fix)
Update 2 (added noCIQ)
Update 1 (added GPS Fix)

I don't know if this os a noob question or not...but can EH17 KERNELS be used with this build....the reason I ask is because in proir GB leaks there was some cross-compatability between builds that some themes could be used with...so im thinking would it work the same for kernels

I would say wait until the ODIN prerooted w/ CWM comes along. Then base with that and flash custom ROMs as they release and appear worthy.
I am running EXT4 now, so do I need to flash the convert to RFS script first?

I'm not entirely sure. This comes with nubernel, which was made for EH17, and I don't think any modifications were done to it to get it to work, so I suppose they can.

Shouldn't have to. The kernel supports EXT4.

I believe the nubernel is actually an EI22 kernel. It was created from the source that we saw in October that was later taken down, which is identical to the new EI22 source that is currently up. So technically we were running EH17 leak with EI22 kernel before. I may be wrong but this is how I understand it.

Thank you for adding it there. And you're quite welcome.
Source earlier and source now are identical, so the only way it wouldn't work is if the devs had to add something to make it work with EH17, than in turn only works with EH17.
I don't think that's the case, and I'm running nubernel problem free thus far.

Why Bother
Why bother with this total fail of an upgrade when there are so many better custom ROM's to choose from right here on xda?
I'm on Infused v2.2.3 and really like it but considering making the move to ZEUS soon.
I just can't see any reason to make a giant leap backward with the AT&T GB upgrade. It's just too little too late. YMMV though.
Maybe Samsung decided to use Zeus?
(Actually the GB release is running really well for myself. I haven't even rebooted yet since install last week.)

Yeah who likes a 100% working phone anyway, right?
meh.
now I know why there are no sources yet. and yeah the update is important if not just for sorcery code. never mind Samsung and att having respect for the customers....
think of how much better the roms can be if we don't have to mix libs from different leaks to fix video recording or playback and workarounds for the sdcard and wifi. and if they actually have HDMI. then we could swap kernels around without considering switching vold.fstab. yeah I hope the update is fixed soon so the code can be released finally.
someone is gonna have to get the update files and decrypt them to get a stock kernel though. (to extract initramfs and the root process will require a kernel to revert to until custom kernels are made.)
If you consider hdmi 100 percent, then I guess im running a 99 percent working rom......yea.....im good with that
sent from my baby girls rom
hey I'm using Zeus myself. but I use the kl2 kernel on it and it would be nice if you didn't need to change vold.fstab back to stock to do so. I just want source code for new kenrels that could be maintained as all the old kernels were developed by people who are no longer here.

Dani, you are running zeus with the stock kernel?
I remembered dman said trying to run stock kernel in zeus will boot loop.
There were scripts not supported by stock kernel.
To make it run, just disable lagfix?
Just curious...

the init.d scripts wont run. that's true. but you should be able to change kernels after a reboot. its running for me. I didn't look at the scripts to see what other things I'm missing but the rom runs fine without the tweaks and lagfix.

well I ran it with infuseion a few days, but I get the themes, the rom is deodexed, and when ever I deodex something it seems to run weird either slow or choppy. Zeus doesn't. I dunno what dman uses to deodex but it works better than what I have used.

For those of you that have flashed this, I'm a little intimidated by the fact that there is a boot.img in the zip. Will installing this overwrite the bootloader?
Just to let everyone know that most everything is now working, GPS, Home button, BT is fixed, several more APNs added, DATA works.
What is still broken is wifi and video. You can use apps that use their own decoding, but we will fix that after we have wifi fully working.
We are very close on wifi, rdavisct and I have eliminated 90% of the errors we were seeing in dmesg about wifi startup, but we still have 3 or 4 errors that we need to fix before it will work.

Okay I don't want to be sarcastic, or funny, or an a** when I ask this - what benefits does a 4.1 system have with a 4.0 kernel other than ui features and animations?

Here's the flash requirements ....
How to flash :
- Tested on ATT and Asia verison mb865
- U should flash this rom on an ICS rom(I mean, your kernel should be 3.X, and your stock rom should be ics)
- Install safetrap or bootstrap to flash this rom
- Boot menu manager is not supported ATM!!!!
- Wipe/Reboot & enjoy it
If I recollect Jim pulled the ICS leak. SVC7 requires ICS leak as does the CM10.
Searched and haven't found it. Is it hiding anywhere?

If you are not on at&t you will need to install the leak for your region.
And yes project butter is working just fine with CM10. Since we are on a 3.X kernel everything will work just fine.. the difference between ICS and JB will be small, JB will be more like when we went from 2.2 to 2.3... it changed names, but more like a medium upgrade... LOL

I'm using jb on my kindle fire with the 3.0.3 kernel and it smokes ics as far as usability goes.much smoother transitions, apps open faster etc. benchmarks aren't much different but i do find the user experience to be a major improvement. The fire has the same cpu/gpu as our a2 so I expect similar results.

What's the best ROM/build for the P3113?

I haven't rooted mine yet and have 4.0.4 on it, so I'm itching to upgrade.
What do you guys think is the best ROM for the Tab 2 7"?
If you're looking to keep the IR, I'd recommend Tab2Lite. It's smooth, quick, and has blaster support, as it's based on Samsung's stock.
Yea, I'm looking to keep the IR blaster. Thx
Next question is, how the heck do I install this? Is there a step by step from root to ROM install?
You have to flash Cwm using ODIN, and then flash Tab2Lite. Thanks for giving my ROM a shot

YES!! I totally agree but here's my beef.
no ir blaster support
as far as i am aware, no swappable extsdcard with sdcard
no remote controls (thats a samsung thing internally)
the keyboard is sh1t unless there is a samsung keyboard apk somewhere out there
perhaps someone can answer these issues?
also, do you have a link for the latest CM10 release for the gt-p3113?

For the lastest CM10.1 nightly (came out today ), here. For the lastest CM10 nightly, here.
The IR blaster isn't working on any ROM, besides the stock-based ROMs. Personally, the keyboards on all the ROMs that I've tried are great, and I'm sure I can find a "samsung keyboard apk" somewhere on the interweb. For the swappable extsdcard, use this. It works quite well with my P3113

CM 10.1 4.2.1 nightly.. the best
I love CM, but there's no way I'm loosing the IR functionality. Love that ****. That's why I'm sticking with stock-based ROMs.

I want the ability to customize everything and tweak the rom to my heart's desire but I dont want that freedom to come at the expense of useful hardware that would be rendered useless. isnt there some 3rd party app or something else like driver packs or something that has been leaked from samsung that we can reload after the CM upgrades that will deal with the IR not working????

Unfortunately the IR blaster requires some Java framework to allow the apps to interface to it. No developer has stepped up to add this to non-Samsung ROMs. Someone might be able to get some ideas for this from the Sony IR remote SDK. It also might be possible to port some of the framework when Samsung releases a JB ROM for the p6210.
When I get time, I might look into doing the Java framework, but I don;t see that free time coming soon, so I too will be sticking with Stock base ROMs.
The stock keyboard on CM10 isn;t great, but I use SwiftKey 3 anyway and the CM10 launcher is pretty poor compared to Apex or Nova.

OK

[Q] Need help picking a custom ROM.

I really want to upgrade my phone to a 4.1 custom ROM that is compatible with system themes or a 4.0 custom ROM with system themes capabilities (CM,AOKP, etc.). I could not find any 4.0 ROMS with system theme compatibility (currently running SwiftyTrixy 1.3). I tried MagicMod 4.1 based ROM but the lack of video camera functionality made me revert back to a 4.0 ROM. I need a 4.1 ROM to have video camera working and be suitable as a daily driver. Tethering functionality included would be nice but is not a deal breaker. Any help would be immensely appreciated. Thanks.
Have you looked at the Paranoid Android ROM? It's nice, and a suitable daily driver for me. Video camera works if you apply the fix from altered in his thread. But I don't think tethering is working at the moment.

I actually just saw that today but I also noticed it was in Alpha still so I wasn't sure if it was stable enough to use as a daily driver but I read plenty of positive feedback. I have PA-Grouper 2.56 on my Nexus 7 and absolutely love it so this might be the best option. Any noticeable bugs in your experiences with the Atrix version? Also, thank you very much for the fast reply.

I am trying to pick a rom too for my Atrix2 (ATT US). I am still stock on ginger bread.
Questions:
1. Looks like NUMA ROM is the best so far? It's based on the final ICS release from ATT, that mean less bugs I suppose?
2. This rom is in Beta? does this mean it will go official soon?
3. After flashing to NUMA Rom, can I go back to gingerbread if I want to? or will there be limitations?

Well, we can't get oc to stick on boot yet, the ffc is botched but video recording and camera work. Flash still doesn't sync properly. And whatever other bugs that have been noted in the PA thread. I say you should at least try it out
It's the smoothest ROM I've used on this phone.

If you want to be able to go back to GB from ICS, you have to be on Jim's ICS leak 1. Do not update to official ota if you wish to have the option to return to GB.
Numa is a very good ROM. Read through the thread to find any possible bugs that others may have found, though i know the list is short.
Note: I repeat.. If you get Jim's ICS leak 1, do not update it to leak2/OTA, as you will no longer be able to revert back to GB.

Thx. Yes, I am aware that I should not update to ICS OTA or leak2. I have been clicking No on the OTA prompt and sticking to GB till now.
Do I need to update to Jim's Leak1 before I can try out NUMA?

Yes you'll have to be on leak 1 before going to numa. Also you'll need to fxz to a clean stock 2.3.6 before trying to put the leak on your phone. Don't set up any accounts once on clean 2.3.6. If you follow Jim's post you'll be just fine :thumbup:

So I finally got around to flashing the PA ROM today. Its easily one of, if not the best ROM I have used on this phone, especially for being in alpha. I actually didn't encounter some of the known bugs listed such as black lockscreen, rotation issue, or bootloop at motorola logo. One issue in particular I did not see previously mentioned on the dev forum was LTE not working. The first thing I looked at was the APN settings and tried setting each one that came preinstalled with the ROM but I was not able to get LTE. Anyone else have this issue or know of a fix? Also no third party flashlight apps work from what I tried. I can confirm tether is not working as well. I'm looking forward to more good news about this ROM than Christmas

Awesome, thanks for that flashlight link. Any advice about the LTE by any chance? I heard it can be kind of finnekey on CM or similar ROMS.

I always assumed it did since it said 4g on the signal bar in the stock firmware.

AT&T somewhat misleadingly calls their 14/21 Mbit HSPA+ "4g".
