Square Card Reader Not Working - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

I am having a problem getting the Square (Register) credit card reader to work on my Skyrocket. I have the CM10.2 ROM. The reader is recognized when it's plugged into the device, but it does nothing when a card is swiped. From what I've read it sounds like the app may not work for custom ROMs, but I'm curious if anyone has found a fix for that issue, since there's no chance in hell I"m going back to the stock ROM.

Pardon?

Just a quick followup. I can't get it to work with CM on either the Skyrocket or another phone we have (Galaxy Note), which is also running CM (but version 11). However, I just tried it on our tablet (ASUS Infinity), which is running CM11, and it works fine on there. So, it seems like there must be some way to get it to work on the phones.

Cm9 Flashing Steps

I'm opening this so someone can probably be so kind as to write the CLEANEST was/steps to flash cm9 I'm sure many of want to try it, I would have wrote them myself but I don't know them, and I have to get ready for orientation with my new job

Here's a preview build now that my source tree is mostly sorted out: http://www.mediafire.com/?1nhagihfoqqpkf3
To flash, you must first flash this recovery: http://www.mediafire.com/?2000k5y512spft4
Then boot into recovery, wipe data/cache, go to mounts and storage and format system, then flash the rom. Gapps are here: http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-ics-20120317-signed.zip . You'll probably have to mount system manually under mounts and storage before flashing gapps.
I've only tested this using gingerbread bootloaders, no idea if it works using froyo bootloaders. If you don't want to deal with the caveats of gb bootloaders, then well, fix it yourself.
what works:
radio (calls/sms/data)
touchscreen
audio
wifi
sensors
hw acceleration
software and hardware video decoding
data usage monitor (for wifi at least)
what doesn't work:
camera/camcorder
bluetooth
anything else is either broken or completely untested.

for some reason with all my phones ive never been aware of my bootloaders... i think its because i just flash cm and never look back,
so if i flashed cm7 right after rooting (now on miui) would i be on GB as well? is there a quick way to check.

Therez no way to check bro. Same spot as you. When i home from school, ill try flashing. But just try flashing with froyo bootloaders, it may work. If it doesnt, then odin back to stock.

I think you're right, the first time I flashed i had the rainbow and i was on froyo bootloaders, after restore to GB it came up fine.
Prior to flashing CM9 I had just Heimdalled back to AT&T UCBL3, so I'm not sure why I wouldn't have GB bootloaders...

How long did it take you all to get off of the initial Samsung logo at start up to the cm9 boot animation after flashing? It has been roughly 10 minutes so far and it hasn't moved. My recovery is all screwed up with funny colors, but it's nice to know that others have encountered the weird recovery as well... was on Devestion before following the steps for flashing cm9.

External SD Card dead after root used ClockworkMod 6.0.1.0

Hi All,
I'm a newbie! I've rooted my Samsung Galaxy P5100 using ClockworkMod 6.0.1.0 via Odin3 1.85. I follow instruction at link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1722063
But after done, my tablet can not recognize the external sd card.
How can I fix this problem ?
Thanks!
try switch back to Stock ROM,
there's no advantage using custom XDA rom when you still have the warranty, unless Samsung doesn't give firmware upgrade anymore

I think that using tablet without the externel sd card is no big problem, but if have the way can recovery it is the best
Now, I'm enjoying with ROM JB 4.1.1 update to 10 August. Basically, most of all are working smoothly.

The sdcard might be corrupt, or it might be a problem with your tablet. Try putting it in a USB microSD reader. (they can be had for $2 online if you do some bargain hunting or $5 from radio shack--save yourself the angst of trying to mount USB storage and just buy one) It's also possible, though very unlikely, that it somehow got broken during some sort of hard reset or reboot, and you'll need a new one.)

I think that my external sd card is no problem. Because, when i boot tablet into clockworkmod recovery mode, the system still detect and read data on it. I don't understand what is the problem !!!

must be caused by your custom ROM,
please note almost every custom rom in XDA is developed by inexperienced wannabe hackers (some devs even doesn't have decent coding skill), & they deploy the rom without extensive testing, & they also not responsible if your devices bricked! LOL
pidgin2012, try reformatting your external sdcard from CWM or PC.
Rotundjere, that's not entirely true. Devs will usually tell you how well a ROM works. For example, CM9 is labeled as an RC, meaning that they tested it and everything works. However, CM10 is labeled as a preview, meaning that some things may not work & you try it at your own risk. For the most part I have found custom ROM's to be more stable then their stock equivalents.

Thanks for your advise! I will try to format sd card on my PC.
The cause make external sd card failed, the reason is that Clockworkmod 6.0.1.0. Because after flash clockworkmod, i have boot tablet to original rom, the system has noticed that can not read from external sd card

I'm not. I've used roms from various different devs and they have always been better than stock. All the devs I've dealt with use testers before mass releases and they are always up front about any bugs that may be in the rom. Frankly my phones stock rom had more bugs than the custom roms ive used. I've doubled my battery life, have more customization options, increased performance and have fixed some major bugs from the stock rom that never should have been allowed to leave the factory, and took 6 months for motorola to fix. Xda devs fixed it in 2. So tell me again how they don't know what they are doing

[Q] AOSP Roms Cannot Connect to Camera

Sorry if this has been posted somewhere else, but after flashing AOKP Build 3 my camera keeps giving me the error "cannot connect to camera." I have tried clearing data on the gallery app, rebooting the phone, and nothing works.
I researched some and tried some fixes I found but none had any effect.
I then reflashed to stock to see if stock Touchwiz would work and it works with no issues. Wiped all data, reformatted my SD card, removed my SD card and cannot seem to find the culprit. I also flashed CM nightly to see if it was an AOKP issue with my phone, but had same issue
For whatever reason I cannot flash any AOSP rom without having FC on my camera. Any help would be appreciated. Again, sorry if it has been posted somewhere I haven't found, but I've looked for a few days and didn't locate anything that worked.

I wasn't able to get it to fix. I came to the conclusion that it was a hardware issue. For whatever reason it works on touchwiz but wouldn't work on aosp ROMs. I got a warranty replacement and it solved the issue. Wasn't able to find a software fix.

The camera works fine in stock, but on CM10 no-go. According to this post its a firmware issue: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2006128
only problem is to fix I need to figure out what camera firmware I have so I can flash a new one - but I cannot determine what firmware i535 has? Anyone?
Based on another thread, seems like I might be able to copy the bins from the cameradata folder on stock where the camera works. No need to flash or anything.

Settings tab forces close when accessing storage

I am running AOKP JB Milestone 1 with TWRP recovery and KATKernel #56d_lidpatch on my TF101 (just for some background). I have just had a weird bug pop up where when I attempt to access the storage section in the settings it forces the settings to close. This happened right after I was having issues with the tablet being able to read the SD card in the dock. I do not recall this happening before, but to be completely honest, I might just never have tried to access this section before while using this particular ROM. I did a reboot and removed the tablet from the dock, but none of this seemed to help. While this is a minor inconvenience and not a huge deal, but I would still like to get this worked out. I have had zero issues with this ROM since flashing the KATKernel, so I am not sure what is going on. Any help or advice that anyone could give me would be great, thanks folks.

Yeah, it worked when I did a flash of the ROM without the KATKernel, but when I flashed the KATKernel the bug came back. Oh well, without the KATKernel the WiFi connection using the AOKP ROM is terrible (it usually drops every two minutes or so). With the KATKernel everything works beautifully...except for the ability to check the storage in the settings tab. I guess I'll just deal with that, it's a trade off that I am willing to make.

CM10 was the first ROM that I tried, I didn't like it. I really like the AOKP ROM and if this is my only issue then I am willing to deal with it and hope for a fix with the next update. This is the first time since getting the Tf101 that I have had almost no issues, so I guess I am willing to stick it out if there is currently no fix or kernel that will solve my problem.
