[Q] Herc JB Rom on I727 autorotate issue - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

Same issue as ICS. Running the Herc t989 rom on the i727. I've tried replacing files and I still cant get it to work (replaced the matching file names from the ICS fix).
The autorotate fix here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1592170&highlight=rotation+fix fixed me on ICS. Reading his post again, it sounds like a fix that is more than just a driver change. Anyone have a solution? I tried the search and a flood of nothing for Jellybean.

Also copy over sensor libs and hardware.so and hardware_legacy.so. It works fine that way. I just pull them from our CM10.1.

You rock, I'll try that tonight. I tried pulling from the stock i727 image and it didnt work. Totally didnt think about pulling the drivers from CM10

Tried copying sensorservice libakm and libsensorservice. (used the latest snapshot). Booted to the samsung screen and hangs.
Replaced the files back and it boots.
I re-read your post and forgot to copy libhardware.so. I'll try that again including the libhardware.so and update later.

Which sensor libs should I pull? I pulled the hardware legacy and hardware.so and the sensor.default.so from /hw still sticks at loading screen.

lib/hw/sensors.default.so and sensor.goldfish.so
EDIT: Are you packaging one of our kernels with it? If not that's your issue.

That is probably it.
This is out of curiosity, with 4.0.4 I did not have to flash the matching kernel. (I was running t989 with the t989 kernel with the mod installed). I would think the kernel is just calling the modules... is that not a correct assumption?

What line in the build.prop do I edit to get rid of the status 7 if flashing a Herc ROM to a Skyrocket?

Its not in the build prop its in the updater script and its the assert lines normally the first two or so lines.

Don't get used to him lol. Any text editor will handle an updater. Extract a ROM zip go to META-INF/com/Google/android/updater-script. In that script you will see assert get rid of the lines associated with it basically anything referring to the herc.

Word of warning, use Notepad ++ or another Unix format capable text editor. Windows notepad and similar free text editors wont store the proper carriage returns, and will save the wrong extended ASCII codes for characters that you wont notice.

A nand. lol The worse you can do is bootloop. It's pretty easy to do playing with the build.prop though.

So did you get the rotation working using a t989 rom and t989 kernel on JB?

Work has kept me from finishing up. So far I replaced all the files from the original mod and the hardware and legacy modules and autorotate still doesnt work.
In the old day the final piece always was flash another kernel, up until I did the mod I originally posted. It didnt require a kernel flash. I'm really trying to figure out the secret to why there is the disconnect between flashing vs not flashing the kernel.
BTW: It makes sense to flash the kernel as well, so no dispute there. I'll download the stock JB Kernel for the 727 and try it to see. I'm just worried about my wificalling. It has a few modules that are loaded in the 989 kernel if I recall correctly.

Stock kernel doesn't allow custom boot animations - you'll need to flash a kernel that supports it. Check the dev section for them.
Will that trip my flash counter?

Not if you use recovery to flash as opposed to Odin. Plus there is a thread somewhere in dev I think with info that allow you to reset the counter.

It's got a modified ramdisk which gives you the ability to use custom boot animations and init.d support.
Seanscreamz' latest ROM thread also has links to similar kernels, but they may have been adjusted further to work more specifically with his ROM; mohan's kernels are pretty much stock.

Rom with spell checker?

I just got this phone yesterday to discover that the stock rom (rooted) doesn't have the red line show up under a misspelled word. I had this on my evo 4g running cm9 or 10.
Does anyone know of a rom, or roms, that would have this feature.

I installed LantinIME.apk from a rom I extracted for the evo. The keyboard worked but still no spell checker. Did you happen to notice if any of the roms you've flashed had this feature, preferably an ICS rom?

I also think this is a keyboard feature. Try installing one of the different keyboards from the play store.
I'm using swift 3, no red lines on touchwiz, however my galaxy player 5.0 running cm9 w/swift 3 has it (did not on touchwiz). I assume this is a rom feature.

I just got the phone and even though I've been doing a ton of reading, I'm still a noob when it comes to the s3. And the last thing I want to do is mess anything up. Atlest with the evo 4g I didn't have to worry about different carriers and what not.

The changes made should work. So basically if you compared the changes of this to their stock rom here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1825272 and then applied the same changes to our stock rom, it would work. BUT their files as is will not work.
Basically, it would probably take about 15 minutes for someone to do if they knew what they were doing. I however don't have 15 minutes to spend on this so I can't help right now lol.

so what I would do is download their stock deodex and extract the files that are included in the mod.
Then, decompile the .jars and apks that were modded and the stock version
Run winmerge on them to see exactly what they changed
Then make those exact changes to our stock deodex rom. So you will need to decompile 3 sets of files and recompile 1 set.

I got apktool installed and decompiled framework.jar where it creates a folder called smali. The problem is, I can't view any of the contents from within it. If I go to properties it states contents "nothing" yet shows free space as being 66.7 GB. So I know that there's something in there, I'm just not allowed to view the contents. I read somewhere that you need a text editor?
I did all this on a Linux machine (Mint 13.) I'm gonna try it on a windows PC next just to see what happens.
Edit: I found out that by changing .jar to .apk and then decompiling it allowed me to view the contents. Now I'm sitting at trying to open the TextView.smali. lol
Edit 2: for some reason it's not working for the JellyWiz rom. It's still not showing the contents from within the samli folder.

[WIP][PORT] Blade v4.6.0 - Android 4.1.1, Sense 4+

Blade v4.6.0​
This is a ROM port from the HTC EVO One X by theDroidfanatic. You can see the original thread HERE.
As of today, 1-31-2013, this is NOT flashable!!! The updater script is still set up for the One X.
The reason I'm releasing this is because my Shift is down until my new flex cable comes in and I can't test anything so I'm asking for help. So far I've been through the majority of the ROM and I feel confident I've made a good start.
The ROMs I've used for parts are JellyBelly v6: Ultimate Edition and StockMod. I've also referenced Legendary-Infamous, MikRunny, and newRUNNY to see how they're put together as well.
I started by modifying Strapped365's JB Kernel in JellyBelly using this [GUIDE] How to port sense to non-HTC devices. Then using various other guides here on XDA, I've been modifying the port ROM to work on our device. I can put together a change log later after work. Now where I am at with this at the moment is the updater script. I've been through the rest of the ROM and think I have a good start but I haven't done anything in the META-INF folder. I am still reading up on how to write my own updater script but I'm not capable yet so those who want to help, this is my immediate need. In the past I was able to get a sense 4.0 One V port to boot on the Shift using an AOSP updater script but I think it may be necessary to write a new one so this will load right. I am a little unsure about the build.prop edits I've made going from GSM to CDMA so that needs to be double checked.
Any and all help is appreciated!
Thank you very much theDroidfanatic for your incredible work and permission to release this.
Change log
2/01/2013:
There is still A LOT of work to be done for this to boot.
Using JellyBelly v6 Ultimate, Changed the kernel using THIS and THIS.
I moved several apks from system/app to data/app to get the system folder down to 423MB
Changed the bootanimation
Changed the system lib modules by adding, overwriting files from base
Changed the system/lib/hw by adding, overwriting files from base
Replaced system/usr/keychars and system/usr/keylayout with system/usr/keychars and system/usr/keylayout from base
Went into system/etc and replaced vold.fstab, /wifi and /ppp with the ones from base
I'm not sure what to do with the Framework folder yet so I left it alone
Edited the build.prop
Also Reserved...
good luck with this, itd be great to see a functioning sense 4+ rom

That's mostly cause of the updater script right?

You guys are making me a little nervous. Keep in mind it may not work even when the updater script is fixed... others more experienced than I have tried to do this unsuccessfully.

Nervous? Nah if they don't read the OP its their fault. Also no matter how effed the updater-script is it shouldn't flash for anyone because of the update binary

Ok I've been trying to figure out how to move forward with this and all I can figure is to start fresh using my ego 4g. Fortunately, JellyBelly Ultimate is on the evo already. Thanks bilgeryan. If I can get it to work that way, surely we can port it to the shift. If any one wants to digin and do whatever your creativity leads you to do then by all means do it. I'd like this to be a community effort as much as possible. Especially "sense" I'm not a dev. There's A LOT I don't know.

MultiView??

Sorry is this has already been answered but which rom has the multi window feature?
SynergyRom is the the rom your looking for.

Ya.. maybe it is just 'one' of the ROMs that has it for the S3 but if you are trying to choose between some of those ROMS to get your multi-window feature then here is just my opinion between Synergy/Galaxy Mod.
If you want an easy, stable, feature complete ROM that isn't all about making it look fabulous (and most fail at the fabulousness), and feels polished... then Synergy is where it is at.
Day one from when I got my S3 I started with Synergy... ran great... but I decided to try Galaxy mod because of people talking about it's battery life and I was having a battery drain issue and ran it for a day. I was just disappointed with it's mods/tweaks/style that it tried to incorporate that didn't seem polished, work right, and clashed with the base style.
Went back to Synergy ROM with a full wipe, battery life had improved, and I haven't strayed since. However, I honestly don't care though for the other ROMs that already come pre-themed, and the other ROMs available just do not have the feature set.

Re-download it check md5 sums or try to open the zip if it opens that usually means it's good then wipe and flash.

also, and not trying to sound like a smart a$$ but make sure you are rooted first; some of the options will require you to have an unlocked bootloader as well.

Well what browser are you downloading these roms with? Try a different one cuz its unusual for multiple and different roms to fail in recovery then exact same way. If you're saving them to your external sd card, reformat that card then try download/flash again.

So even now, with multi window, do you still feel it's very stable? I'm on Jelly 'beans' b10. I never tried b9 with multi window because in the forum they said it wasn't as stable and that the other roms with multi were having the same problem (stability).
Do you agree? I'm thinking about giving Synergy a shot.
Thanks

It is extremely stable. For a super stability when in the aroma installer choose custom install, read everything carefully as you go, check anything that says it will increase or maximize stability, and to reduce the chance of any random or quirky thing from happening choose stock kernel.
