Sky Rocket Cymbaline Kernel with Camera Fail work around!! - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Haven't seen anyone in our forum mention this. I just flashed it on the latest Darkside and its running smoothly.
For your knowledge.
Yes this works on the T989.
You need to flash the auto rotation fix to have properly working auto rotation.
If the camera fails.** I was informed that using the liboemcamera.so and /system/lib/hw/camera.msm8660.so.pulled from UCLE2 fixes this. ** Simply replace the existing files found in /system/lib and in /system/lib/hw
O/C and U/V work fine for me BUT DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!!!! I use system tuner from the market for this.
PLEASE REMEMBER THAT USER EXPERIENCE WILL VARY, BUT THE KERNEL IS SAFE TO TRY.

I've been running it all day on my T989 all day.. I don't know how many times You guys need to hear that the Skyrocket and the Hercules is the same thing..
No special instructions. Flash the kernel. Then auto rotation fix.
However the Camera is fails. But that's a known issue with it right now.

Even TDJ had problems with his Alpha Kernel. He had an issue with camera not working on his initial release also. This is a developers forum. Issues are expected unless you see FINAL in the title or OP.

All you do is flash the kernel and auto rotate fix and reboot. But only for touchwiz roms, not AOKP or CM9

I think that was expected, as far as I know Skyrocket Kernels doesn't work on our phones.
Soo now the question is, will devs be able to make this boot since we have no ICS kernels for our Phones??
Just a random thought but couldn't a Dev start with xboarders kernel and add some.of the drivers/components from the skyrocket kernel?

Can we flash ics skyrocket roms?

Seems to me the development in the skyrocket forum is ahead of ours. Can we flash skyrocket ics rooms without modification from the skyrocket forum or do we have to wait until the t989 devs hack it to work. Also what must be modified to get the skyrocket ics roms to boot?

Chimera ROM?!?

I don't know a whole lot about this ROM or team passion, but I thought maybe starting a thread about it we could all learn a little / keep track of updates and progress. From what I've heard, they haven't built anything using our newly acquired source, but those who have ran what they have so far seem to love it.. What you guys think?

This install method is awesome but not all of the features worked for me... also a lot of ppl have reported that it doesn't boot ... I think the solution to this is u have to come from a 4.0.4 rom ...

If you are coming from a tw ics rom it most likely will fail. I flashed it from stock ics and it failed 4 times i then flashed a cm9 and the directly flashed this and it booted fine. I heard the dev say this as well
Also when u are installing in the beginning in aroma installer u can choose custom install and u can pick radios.
I was only getting signal with Kid radio

Trying it out now but rotation is backwards. Just disabled auto rotate now I'll check out the rest. Flashed over latest aokp not cm9 so that probably caused it.
While I appreciate the extra work making it with aroma, I really wish they didn't force their radio choices on you. I was doing just fine with my radio.

Using root explorer you can push your choice of kernel or radio in its respective places just looked in it to fix auto rotate you'd need to take libakm.so from cm 9 and push it to system/libs.

[Q] Kernel

So, I was digging around today and I kept ending back to a thread in the SKYROCKET side of the Galaxy S II forum. Are ALL kernels compatible or does the dev have to compile for both devices? (I did use google) (I did search forum)

Are the skyrocket kernels interchangeablewith 989 ROMs? Yes. As long as the kernel is made for the ROM. Like AOKP, CM9 and the like. Also the rotation .zip would be in order if using a skyrocketkernel

Obviously you guys havent been around long. When ICS was first leaked for the skyro, we all flashed away and had no issues at all... other than a wonky rotation. User yaldak(I believe) made us all a rotation fix and all was well.
The only difference between the skyro and the herc is the lte radio, and the accelerometer orientation.

samsung hercules, samsung skyrocket and samsung celox are bases from each other, so yea, they are the same in kernel, board ( all of them are msm8660 type).
Well now that we got that partly settled, yea they got a lot of their top devs on it so hopefully they make it compatible
They still have to make it compatible for hercules. For example if u try flashing blinky revenge then it won't work. He didn't add the extra step
So yeah we can flash every rom and Kernel from skyrocket as long as we use a rotation fix after and that they add the extras to make it compatible
