[Q] Cyanogen mod 7 RC2 With Savage Zen Kernel

--I hope somebody else has tried this mixture as well; I know a few have, and 1 person I seen on the internet said it was a good match and WIMAX worked fine.
--When I installed Savage Zen (The newest GB version) to my Evo4G with CyanogenMod7 - RC2, I had a few problems; but the primary problem I had was: WIMAX was NOT working. It worked at first (for maybe a minute or 2), then it turned off; I turned it back on, it connected, and then it turned off after something like 10 seconds.... I rebooted, did a battery pull, tried quite a few things and it kept doing that. Later that day it stopped connecting completely. When I hit "connect", it just said 'connecting', or 'Finding'.... cant remember exactly sorry, but It would just stay like that, and nothing would happen.
--Eventually I just re flashed CM7 RC2 and stayed with the original kernel and now WIMAX works fine; as far as I can see....
--I was wondering if anybody out there 'had the same problem'; 'didn't have the same problem'; or most importantly "'why it happened' and/or 'how to fix it'"? -AND if there are any Kernels that somebody would recommend with CM7 RC2 EVO4G that keeps WIMAX Working? Thanks Ahead of time to Anybody and Everybody that helps me out with this.
THANK YOU!!

What version of the kernel are you running?

I had the same problem. I was using the lastest version on Savage's website. Non-sbc, though. My 4g was crippled. I had to revert to stock CM7 RC2's kernel to get 4g working again. However, for some reason, when I tether it wireless, it slooowwssss down. The speed is great on the phone itself. Well over 6 mb's down. But tethering is another story.
What do you think I should do?

Ok.... I used the gb "bfs" I think it was called. (U know it started with BS) when I first installed cm7 rc2 the newest savage Zen version made the wimax and wifi not work.
Then there was a new savage Zen that released on March 15th: I again installed the "bfs" version(brain f#@% version), it even had wimax in the name so I thought it would fix the problem..... when I first installed it, it worked PERFECTLY, then 30 minutes later wifi and wimax stopped working again.
PLEASE HELP! I miss the battery life of savage Zen!!! What's the problem??

Ok so far I 'think' i "may" have gotten it to work by using the cfs version of savaged-zen instead of bfs.... (When I 1st installed the cfs version, the wifi and wimax worked fine just like the bfs version, and just like the bfs version after about 30 minutes wifi and wimax stopped working; but UNLIKE the bfs version, when I rebooted my phone with the cfs version, wifi and wimax work again[hopefully everybody followed that]. So we will see)
Hopefully i don't have to reboot my phone every 30 minutes to have wifi and wimax to work!! Thanks to everybody who helped; and good luck to everybody that needed help (Like there were SO many replies on this thread)(So far.........)

Any updates on this today? Thank You.

I can't get there new versions to work

[Q] Any good ICS solution for Rogers users as of April 2nd?

I've read through the threads on all the forums, and nothing definitive yet. Also things are changing so fast over the last few days, I figured this needed asking.
I'm hearing people say that some of the zip cooked ROMs can be installed on the 727R but only if you have the leak installed first with ODIN.
When I go through the leaked ROM thread, it says it doesn't work on Roger's Skyrockets.
So is there any way to take a stock, or non-stock GB ROM and get either the leaked ROM or a cooked ROM onto a 727R?
Thanks

This works on Rogers. I flashed this from stock rooted Rogers GB.

but to be honest my battery has been draining alot with this leak. also seems alot unstable atm. i know go ahead bash me but ive tried every rom to see if it would settle or be stable. but none so far and im just wondering if this leak is a problem for canadians or for "rogers" especially.

+1 today it's been unstable for me a lot and the battery leak is still happening

I think there may be slight differences between the Skyrocket & Rogers version, that only Samsung know about.
One only has to look at the Samsung Focus 1.3 & 1.4 revisions. Both are identical except for a minor difference, but it caused major headaches for MS when pushing updates. It wouldn't surprise me if Samsung does the same on the Android side.
So with this leak your running an unfinished ROM, & one that may not be intended for your revision of hardware

i think that could very well be true. because of this battery drain 2-3% every less than half hour is like does this rom really feel it should be like this. also reboot issues, rom hanging in here & there, its not about the "work-around" but actual work seems very unstable. their devs are even soo stupid that when i ripped dialer.apk they spelled dailer in 1 of the imgs rather then dialer..it made me laugh soo hard..

I've tried this version, Mostly worked ok but my caller ID stopped working?
I'm a newb so I can't post over there to find out if anyone else saw the same issue... maybe I did something wrong but everything else seemed to be great?

Thank you everyone for responding. Gonna wait a few days and see how this plays out for Rogers uses. Hope other Rogers users post results here.

If you are on Rogers, flash the thing from the second post then flash any of the other ICS ROMs.

GB-->ICS works
I used ICSMOD5 from here

My ROM was running Malice from T989, with Streamline Kernel.
1)Backup!
2)Factory Reset
3)Advanced - Wipe Dalvik
4)Manual reset: - Mounts and storage, Format system,data & cache
5)Flash UCLA4 ICS radio
6)Flash the ICSMOD5_wipe version
7)Boot
8)Wait...wait even more...don't panic...
9)Enjoy
Everything including data and gps, and time issues were okay.
On the apex launcher, the messenger icon is bonked, just remove the shortcut and put the messaging shortcut again.
Wifi Tether: Starts up via toggle mod, can set password and stuff, computer connects to it but no data goes thru.
Will report back on battery use and possible issues.
So far so good.

Flash this modem http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24140728&postcount=5
Then type *#2263# into the Phone and Select "[4] LTE Band Preference" then "[7] LTE ALL". Once you get an LTE signal, then type *#2263# again and this time Choose "[1] Automatic" and it should work.
I've had to do this a few times, but I have gotten stable LTE on all the ICS builds so far.

confirm ICS-SUPERLITE 5.1 on Rogers Galaxy S2 I727
I like to endorse the custom ROM ICS-SUPERLITE 5.1 on Rogers Galaxy S2 I727. it is a SUPER ROM, improves the battery life, smooth, uncluttered and simple to install. mhx did a fabulous job.
ICS-SUPERLITE 5.1 is fantastic!

I've been running Smooth Ice for almost 2 weeks with no issues. The first ROM I used to upgrade from GB was the one just called 'Working Rogers ICS ROM', or something like that. I used Superlite and then went to Smooth Ice and have no complaints.

well not to put my team's rom up. but if you use our rom after we're gonna update today you are not gonna wanna leave it =).. you think you had enough with other roms. haha you have seen nothing yet.

[Poll] What Are You Running?

Hello all,
Hopefully making a poll like this isn't against forum rules. I'm just trying to gauge what ROM's people are running on their Verizon Galaxy S IIIs.
Vote away, and if you pick 'Other,' please make a note of what it is you are running in a post.
Thanks for voting!

Edit: Just realized I forgot ParanoidAndroid hybrid JB ROM. I don't believe I can edit the poll in any way to add that option. Sorry about that. I would say throw that under Other (JB).

I had a hunch a lot of you would be running Synergy. Do most of you use a custom kernel, like Imoseyan's lean kernel? Or do you still use a stock kernel?
Thanks again for your responses.

Stock kernel for now

Those of you that voted 'Other (ICS)' or 'Other (JB)' could you tell us what ROM you are using? I'm interested to here about all the options available.
I think the most interesting part will be coming back to this thread in a few months and seeing how out of date it will be. There will likely be all sorts of new ROMs, or a lot more stability on JB ROMs.
Thanks again for your responses.

Runnin Droid Hacker's CM10 port and it runs beautifully. Invisiblek's CM10 and custom kernels are also good for this phone.

"Other JB" ParanoidAndroid here.

I'm still on Synergy 1.3. I just went down into town today (I live in the sticks) and **** me if they don't have 4g there now! Awesome. Except the god damn phone kept dropping back to 3g. Seemed to do it every time the screen turned off. I took the opportunity, using 4g to download the latest Beans and Synergy ROMs but, that ****ing 4g drop had me pretty pissed off and I don't think I'll bother doing it. Revert the phone back to stock and send it on its way.

Get rolling fast with a new phone? Yes.
Since I don't have time to monkey with stuff, I jump on whatever bandwagon has the most use and support (thanks to all the people who DO have time to monkey with stuff). Accordingly, I got my subsidized upgrade from VZW yesterday in the form of an S3.
I'd been running an OG Incredible on CM7. Zero problems, worked when I needed it.
I got home, rooted using this fast, simple method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1792342
Loaded up CWM Rom Manager and flashed Synergy v1.6 before doing anything to the phone other than having it activated by the gal at the VZW store.
Have all my apps installed and Ti backed up. Have my IMAP email running. No issues and the battery was great today. Now to start using it.
Likely I'll go back to CM once official and stable, but this seems a good stopgap.

Synergy 1.6

Synergy 1.7 Running good
First of all glad to be back.
With a new phone was at
my ends with the Thunderbolt
and lack of updates from the
big red. So I feel sort of a trader
leaving HTC to Samsung. I want
to say Samsung rocks!
Very happy with the S3 and running on
synergy 1.7 had run the IMO v0 beta
worked gr8.
Only cons for me on IMO's kernel
when the phone is off and would charge via wall charger it would vibrate every few seconds and never charge more than 80% range. If I left the phone on and charged via wall would not do this
When you restart the phone from cold start will go through a series of 3 reboots before coming to the main screen sometimes it would end up in the recovery menu, I also wiped cache, dalvik three times before flashing.
Love IMO's kernels they rock but the mult reboots for me has kept me
on the stock with SynergysROM 1.7

[Q] PA 3.60 Phone Calls Not Working

I downloaded the new PA 3.60 6/11 build from notta yesterday with KT747 Kernel and RErick universal setup. After using for a while, without attempting to call, I was more than happy. At work today I called my girlfriend and in the middle of our conversation the call dropped. Ever since then whenever I try to make a call I get a "com.android.phone has stopped" message or it will connect, close phone screen but keep call in status bar, show that same message, then drop the call. Sometimes it says "Mobile network not found" after trying to call then will reload my bars after. Can't receive calls either but my network shows I have bars and every IMEI & numbers alike are there. Restored nandroid and calls worked.
Thought it might be kernel combo so tried to wipe everything and reinstall but problem persisted. Any ideas on how to fix?
Thanks in advance!

Try the latest paranoid android gapps, i had that problem a few times but after i flashed those the problem stopped. And what's Rerick setup?

I've flashed the 6/10 gapps both times I flashed the ROM, unfortunately. Maybe bad download? I don't know at this point.
Its RErick's from Team Kernelizers setup for the KT747 kernel. Can find him on the TK Mod thread. Great battery life supposedly but didn't get to try it for too long since calls didn't work.

I was running the latest pa with their gapps and calling was fine for about a day then I got the phone crashing every time I tried to make a call and couldn't receive any.
Did nothing different. I didn't try to fix it or anything, I just restored my tw backup.
Unfortunately, I've been running tw mostly these past few months. Occasionally I try out aosp, be it cm or another iteration, but go back due to the annoying deal breaking glitches. I've pretty much given up on running anything other than bone stock on this phone. Not sure if it's just my phone or what, but anything else always has obnoxious bugs that never seem to get squashed.
Shame, too. The developers do great work. Probably just my particular phone as plenty of others seem to run with zero problems.
Stock bloated tw with nova for me. Even the debloated roms run wonky on my phone after a couple days. Always full, clean wipe.

The same things HaS been happening to me with alot of asop ROMs. Only way to fix is not use custom kernel and the roam setting have something to do with it. It sucks cause I like the asop ROMs . Its been doing to me for two weeks just wonder if they have changed anything with these ROMs cause it don't matter if its cm PA AOKP or unofficial versions of these I just can run them anymore

Since I've been having so much trouble with any rom I haven't used a custom kernel since my thunderbolt days. I run whatever kernel the rom comes packaged with.
But like I said, it's probably my phone. It has defective bluetooth that I didn't figure out until well after I purchased the phone. It's got constant loud crackling and popping on stock (ironically, non existent on aosp roms). I doubt that's related but just illustrates the weird differences between phones.

Had the same problem less than an hour ago when i really needed to make a phonecall. Had to restore to my backup i made before flashing PA. Hell of a time for it to stop working.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app

Well after first believing it was just my phone, after reading these comments as well as the PA thread I've come to the assumption that its something with the ROM and how it behaves with the phone app. Hopefully the details will get resolved soon cause I was really enjoying the new PA. Until then, sticking with hyperdrive.
Thanks guys.

had this problem since upgrading to the 6/11 build.
i could make calls out as long as i didnt press the ok button to dismiss the process stopped message.
i could not receive calls hwoever. it does ring like it should, but it does not allow me to answer.
using latest gapps package.

I've had this problem on both 6/12 and 6/14, using the 6/10 gapps.
Any chance anyone has come up with some way to resolve this?

for ppl with this problem, i moved to pacman to get all my newest PA features setup with pie, expanded desktop and halo.
not having htis problem on there.

Good suggestion. Really liked PACman for a while, but eventually my call got dropped and I ran into the exact same issue from that point on. At this point I've just decided to go with a TW based rom. With hyperdrive you can still have pie and download Floating Notifications app that is practically the same thing as halo but also has themes available too.
Until that bug can be fixed, going to stick with Hyperdrive. Sweet rom anyway.

[Q] No Data after flashing Harsh Kernal w/ HellfirePhoenix 2.4.2

I was having a lot of FCs with the stock kernal(FAUX123). I flashed the HARSH kernal, and everything runs perfect on WIFI, except Talkatone is no longer compatable???. When I leave the house, I get no data signal -3G/4G. Any help? I looked through the Harsh Thread for the P999, but it is REALLY long now, and I gave up. Also, if anyone can tell me why I cant register for the ROM updates, that would be kewl, too.
Any help?
I should mention that this ROM/Kernal combo is the ****. got over 13hours battery time with wifi.
