Why do you even have the GT-I9100 with so many ways of removing it. :p
Download http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1494114 and give him thanks and buy him a beer if at all possible.

It has been tested on our phones many times.


As for it being stuck on boot, try reflashing...if not maybe a wipe but do that last.

Edit
Actually few questions, did you try dual boot (might have caused problems) or did you switch to another kernel?
Maybe try flashing Entropy or Drowningchild's kernel without doing a wipe.

Ok thanks. I'll try one of the other kernels and see if that works.

No matter which modem I use, this rom always loses connection. And, it is just this rom. There is something wrong with it. I cannot use it anymore!

Try reflashing everything with a fresh download and a fullwipe. I experienced something similar and that fixed it. I have no problems now and i live in the middle of BFE

From my understanding this ROM accurately reports what your connected to, be it 3G, H, H+ whatever, unless the dev goes out of his way to address this, AT&T code base sort of defaults to H+ when that is not really accurate.

Benchmark one ROM against the other to see what your true speed is. Using the same modem I have better data transfer speed (as benchmarked, although my sample size is too small to yield relevant data) with this ROM than the other major ICS ROMs.

If you really are having a problem, play around with modems, there are a bunch out there, and some work better in some locations than others. Or as said before perhaps something odd happened during your download (no MD5) or during the flash that a full wipe/reinstall would fix.

Lol, if that's the connection drop people are referring to, that's funny :rolleyes:.

It could be. I don't remember where I was reading it, but it was here on XDA there was a discussion about drops from H+ to 3G on some ROM's and one of the developers mentioned his ROM accurately informs what connection speed you have, it was something he had to go out of his way to do, thus if the other developers did not do it, it would appear that your always connected via H+ when in fact, your connection might be flaky as well.

Dunno, I could be completely wrong, but it what popped into my mind when I was reading the posts.

Also check out this link http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1576199 I made the changes suggested, and noted that my overall throughput seems to have increased. Again, my sample size is too small, (I have no intention of running any benchmark 100 times) but it would seem faster, overall. If nothing else, it causes no harm.

I know exactly what you're talking about; most ROMs opt for accurate reporting. I just thought it was funny that people might be thinking it's a bug. Now that I think back, I do seem to remember people thinking it was an issue when the first custom roms starting baking it in.

For those 2 that are having connection problems after switching modems, I really hope your not talking about it going from H+ to 3g.
That isn't a drop, its how its meant to show...

AT&T covers it up so it only shows H+ to make it think your on there awesome network with great speeds at all the times.
i9100 roms don't do that by default so I didn't even have to mod it.

One of these 2 are the code in SystemUi.apk, to lazy to try it.
PHP:
<bool name="config_hspa_data_distinguishable">false</bool>
<bool name="config_showMin3G">false</bool>

Chris has spoken, I knew I remembered reading about AT&T slimy code that always showed H+ when in fact you might not be.

Thanks for clearing that up, Chris!

So my better half asked me to remove the popup in taskmanager when exiting things, so looking into that.
If anyone bumps into a thread for that let me know. :)

Involves Jobmanager.apk.


Edit - Got the popup removed, but "Exit All" doesn't do anything, will keep working on it.

Working great on your Phone Bricker:D. Been testing with NEAK all morning too:D

Anyone else willing to give it a try!

Going to try to update the kitchen now while working on Task Manager.

    I got tired of the whistle for my notifications, so I took the other sounds from XWLA4 and made a flashable package out of it.

    Also included is the S2 boot animation file. bootanimation.zip will still override this.
