installed and i have 276 mb of internal storage , might be a little faster and i mean little...but now fancy weather widget doesnt show the weather ... never had that problem before...

i dont see any major difference..

also just noticed it had my network mode set to gsm only instead of gsm/wcdma auto ... now my weather widget works...

Alright thanks for trying it out. I guess ill stay on stock kc1 until a rom comes out or gingerbread is finally released.

your welcome...

i just updated to this. is it supposed to have a 'my little pony' boot anim?

I didnt see one...

This maintenance release includes various bug fixes and enhancements based on customer feedback.
Call functions
•Incoming caller number displayed instead of name (for customers who subscribe to Caller Name ID service)
Memory
•Phone freezes, soft reboots, lags, or has black screen
Messaging (SMS, MMS, e-mail)
•Error: ‘Message not sent’ or 'Error in server response' when sending a Picture Message
•Contact’s name does not appear in text message ‘To’ field
Wi-Fi Calling
•No data connection after leaving Wi-Fi area

Can this update be applied manually through KIES, even though I flashed krylon's stock rom to my rooted galaxy s 4G?

Looks like they fixed the mms issue that chadster was waiting for. lol i'll pass but thanks for the info

Can someone do a clean system dump if you updated to this? Maybe one of the devs can convert it to deodexed with it.

Has anyone else upgraded to this rom besides me... I don't think my weather app is working right...

March 2012 Baseband and CM7

Haven't seen anyone post this but have seen people asking about roms. I flashed cm 7.2.0 RC and I am not experiencing any of the call sound issues.
Just thought I'd pass along the fyi

Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA

Are you sure you are on right baseband? Did you test both incoming and outgoing calls: i dont think this matters but you should be hearing static instead of call if you are on the latest baseband and not official ROM

So op which is it

I think GetRIL would solve the ROM/Baseband compatibility problem. (Not affiliated in any way with GetRIL or the developer. I take no responsibility for anything regarding this.)

I used getril (free version) and wifi calling worked fine at least. Don't know about conventional cell calls though.

Did you try the March 11 2012 (latest) baseband with an unofficial ROM?

Tried cm7 with gitril. Only works on first call. I was so happy, then my brother called again and static came back.

Man I want so bad come back to cm7 I've tried some days ago without getrill and couldnt call... hope with getrill I'll be able to call again will try it later
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA

Getril won't fix it. There are more significant changes that need to be made to the ROM.

Indeed, after reinstalling CM7 today, even with using GetRIL, I get horrible static on both ends of a cell call. Wifi-calling works fine still. I hope devs figure out the disparity and add support for the march baseband. We'd really appreciate it!

My awesome.brother loves stock. So he traded me g2x's and now I.have cm7 so.happy!

How can I downgrade BB plz help

Ok, so i already did so much research on this and still havent come up to anything :/. My plan is to get back to rooted GB2.3 since im upgrading phone but given this one to my brother and well all this new roms are not really stable want to leave him with a good stable rom and stock as well. But since i have march 11 BB can really go back to STOCK OTA GB 2.3 i already flashed it and well of course the phone calls dont work :/. Can someone plz help me how to downgrade on it, its urgent since getting my new phone next week. Will donate for the help.

If your issue is the poppy sound in calls, there is a fix for that
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1776843
Go in this link and download new base Band fix.
If your brother uses GPS, then stay on this base band.
If he uses blue tooth calling, then stay on the stock ROM.
Believe me this base band is better.
P.s: I like my donation in $20 crisp bills, Thank you.

If you want stock, stay on the new baseband and go with stock. Big time improvements.

I will give this a shot when i get home from work if it works fine will donate like i promise, Butwht i ended it up doing for now is flashing2.3.4GB but only thing is bothering me is the signal bars aint green. N i flashed the OTA green signal fix that worked on 2.3 but after i did my, status bar wouldnt show up at all and would kept getting FC on it every second. All i want for it to work perfectly fine nice gps locks and of course the calling and data no drops. That is reason why im just rotting but staying on stock rom and hoping everything works fine to pass it to my bro. BY the way Any fix to green signals color on 2.3.4? If there is ill just go ahead and do that and stay n 2.3.4. N of course still will donate.

I don't know what you mean by flashing 2.3.4 GB cuz base band on this phone isn't flash able like roms
And kernel. I will assume you did it correctly.
Moving on, if you don't care about blue tooth calling, you can try paranoid Android in Dev forum, not that other roms are not good, but I have been using that for a while and it's pretty stable with no data drops.
For calling, flash that zip I have you the link too and it will work on your base band.
Try that and see if it suits you.

I can't remember the color of the bars as I have been off stock ROM for a while, but if you are able to do voice calling data is working .then the gray/green doesn't matter really.

I think when the bars are gray that means your not connected to your Google account. You can still make calls correct?

Record Calls

I tried few none of them recorded the voice from the caller.
Thanks,

Some Roms have it built in. I know Sky ICS had it and it worked well. Just remember that recording calls without consent can lead to problems..

Total recall claims that their recorder works on jellybean with root privileges. I'm currently in an email back and forth with the developer trying to get it to work on e skyrocket since it is a variant of the s2. I defiantly need the ability to record calls but I really don't want to downgrade. I'm currently running cm10 and it's soooo super smooth and fast.

Ihave been trying to get call recording to work on this damn phone for a while now and I'm getting a little tired. So far I have flashed like 6 ROMS in 3 days. I am currently running embryo 5.4 based on this thread but the recordings just comes out as a buzzing noise. There is nowhere in the rom settings that I can play with the recording settings,... Does this have anything to do with the modem I am using? When I do a complete wipe and fresh install through cwm does it change the modem? Does the lack of call recording ability even have to do with the modem?
Lol, please help me, I need this feature haha.

Mine works fine on embryo with the lf6 radio. No cwm does not touch the radio when flashing roms or wiping. They have to be manually installed.

Tasker can do it, there is a downloadable project for it, I tried it briefly and it worked fine, but not for calls on speakerphone.

Ok, so I am running embryo 5.4 and after I flashed the old modem from gingerbread, the recording works flawlessly.the recording quality is awesome and I love the fact that you must press record in the call screen built right into the app but I find the Rom itself very overwhelming. There are sooo many settings and so many different options and apps pre installed. When I go into the manage apps, under downloads there are like 15 different font packs alone. Also the media scanner seems to run for like 20 min after the phone boots, even after multiple starts. And they battery drain is pretty bad. Also Amgen I change the dpi to 200 where I like to Run, everything goes to hell. it I have found the best Rom battery wise is c9.1 is there any way to integrate the phone app from embryo into cm 9.1? They are both 4.0.4.......

Little update on the call recording on the skyrocket. Seems that the base kernel for jb supports call recording right form stock. the problem that I have been having and probably most people like me wanting this feature is simply lack of knowledge on the programming side. After a few emails from the developer of "CallRecorder" it was just getting the settings right. Using that recording app with source set to record from kernel, and recording in wav format all is well. I did lots of searching and flashing to get this right, so hopefully anyone else trying to get this working will find this thread and it will help them.
Cheers
Oh and on a side note,I am simply running cm10 stable with the stock Rogers uclf6 radio, cause I know someone will ask

One word of caution - before recording any phone conversation, make sure you're aware of your state's laws. In many jurisdictions, recording a phone conversation without the explicit consent of both parties is a felony.

Ty, I'm in Canada, you simply have to inform the other party and it is their decision of they wish to speak to you or not
Update.
Re-flashed uclb6 and everything is working great on incoming and outgoing calls, bought a LTE Sim card, not that I think that has anything to do with it but I have LTE on my data plan, might as well use it lol.

Official 412 leak?

Which is more important in the next update

I've been waiting for an official OTA JB update for a while.
While I'm sure there are nifty bells or whistles with JB the only thing I care about is a better radio. If JB offered more accurate/reliable voice dial I'd probably put a hacked version of JB on my phone as that is about the only thing I can think of that Android doesn't do well enough for me. VLINGO seems to be very accurate for voice dial in comparison.

Jelly Bean works fine. I take it you are still on ICS? Google Now works great for voice dialing. Has about a 99% success rate for me.
As soon as I bought my GS3 I unlocked & installed the JB leak, & now CleanROM. But I came from a G.Nexus, so I was already spoiled on JB.

It might be QC, but I hear they are in other phones and work OK. I had the ET4G on sprint and the radio was fine on that - not sure if that was QC or not.
