4G

Love the Rom, very fast and stable.

Any way to get 4G to show up for those of us on Telus in Canada. I know there is no speed difference with or without the 4G, I just miss seeing it there :)

But does it will drag icon from drawer to dock without any launcher, even i'm using TDJ's ROM with no "flags" (I think)

Myself i'm adw fan, but for once I would like see the "stock-like" with access to change icon from dock bar...i preferring the stock looking instead of have flags that remove touchwiz and replaced adw and Samsung apps removed

Or am I missing something?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jsammons:
You have to open the app drawer then select edit from the menu. It will then switch you to the custom layout view if you are not already on it, and allow you to edit the location of the applications in your app drawer, add app drawer screens, and modify your dock layout. Just drag the app you want over the phone icon, and it will swap the icon out with your new selection.

Hope this helps.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] pyraxiate:
Lol I thought my post was clear too :-P Hopefully you figure it out. Yes you can chamge the icons. Just follow our directions and you wont have any issues. Ive stripped a lot of services and apps out ( after initial install ) and have it running very smooth at 810 MHz. I'm actually surprised at its fluidity :-D

So is anyone else having an issue seeing music, ringtone, notifications sounds, pictures, etc. from the external sd? Basically anything on my sd card, media related, the phone isn't showing it. I can go in to the gallery and nothing appears. I try to set custom tones and none of them show up in the list. I go in to Music and nothing shows up. When I was on the stock rom that I rooted (not a custom rooted rom) everything showed up just fine. I've tried installing the notw and stock install with wipe on both but the issue still happens. I've tried running a rescan sd program from the market (about 5 different ones) and none of them seem to help. Can some one help me figure out why I can't see these?

Unrooted to grab the update, thought I was going to leave it unrooted until official ICS dropped, but after using your roms I can't stand being stock! I have everything ready to re-root as soon as you do your magic on the new release.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] BRKotucs:
Same here! I've been running stock for two days already, although it seems fast but no where close to what DW is. I miss ICS though lol...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Towle:
Yeah the stability on this stock ROM isn't bad, it's the battery life that really sucks. And I also miss ICS, but I'm too dependent on my phone for the little quirks all the leaks still have. Hopefully Tmo will just push out the damn update soon so we can just move on with a nice stable ICS build!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] BRKotucs:
on my first day I got 9 hrs and 2:45 of screen on time. Day two, 12hrs and 4:45 of screen on time. Still doesn't compare to what I used to have on this ROM (DW).

I'm already rooted though just keeping it stock for now. I froze a lot of crap a already.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] synenergy52:
Thanks, DerekJay. I wanted to comment that this rom is great. However there still is a problem with the MMS still showing 1/2 the screen and small. It is weird, however, that the file size is still showing large as if normal (minimal compression) for example its showing 158kb for one pic I sent someone. But when I go to review it (click on it) it's small and pixelated--as if around 8-15kb like on a stock T989 rom. However the message properties show its a large file size. With ICS, MMS pics show full screen and sharp as if viewing directly from your phones internal memory. Can you address/look into this some how?

BTW, I donated last night $5 =)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] clninja:
I highly doubt any complaints about bugs in versions that are not the current/latest version of the rom are going to be addressed.

Upgrade to the newest version (2.7) and then if you still have issues you can post about them.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] thederekjay:
Thanks for the donation. When running this rom I didn't have issues with mms pixelated. If you could upload a screen shot so maybe I can understand better.

"I am turned into a sort of machine for observing facts and grinding out conclusions..."
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] synenergy52:
Ok uploaded. This uploaded as 38KB. The original PNG on my computer is 232kb. It downsized. But the full size 232kb looks soft and pixelated. the original file on my phones internal memory is SHARP and brilliant.

Basically after sending an MMS, and you click on it, it should display full screen like in ICS. But instead it's displaying exactly like on a stock T989 (like 1/3rd screen and pixelated/slightly soft) but it IS strange that its displaying a large file size (150kb+) which IS normal and should show sharply/full screen. but it displays tiny and soft.

I switched back from ICS rom because (chicago) was laggy and wifi calling delayed. possible to port the ICS MMS over to this??

I will continue to test it some more to see if anything changes. other than that, this rom is very speedy and reliable. i like it a lot. The fact that MMS file sizes are showing large again (150kb+) is at least a good sign.

I am an avid photographer so I can definitely tell there's a sharpness difference between displayed from phones internal memory and on MMS. Again the ICS MMS runs perfect.. if only it could be like that! :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Z-Man™:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] afbengochea:
Hey TDJ, I'm not sure of this is a bug with the ROM or not but I noticed this yesterday. When video recording, a couple minutes in after you started recording, it gets laggy. I'm going to test to see if I can reproduce what it did when I was recording last night. I'm thinking out might also be the fact that it was recording to the external sd instead of internal. I'll try that as well. Other than that, great stuff. I'll probably wait until you get the source for ICS before I leave this beauty.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] synenergy52:
As the pics linked above, and per my previous post, the result is drastically different. When viewed directly from SD card, all pics are normal and sharp.

Once the photos have entered the MMS/compression phase, they are drastically altered to the point of being soft. In ICS MMS, these photos are FULL excellence/sharp/full-size in MMS.

Your original post states you fixed the MMS problem. just wondering what you did to fix it? and can we copy over ICS MMS?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] thederekjay:
No u can't copy over anything from ics. U miss understanding me. The mms that u r receiving, if you save that recieved mms to the sd card then view it from the gallery, does it give the same results as if you are viewing the MMS in slide show format. I would give you exact me u commands to save the recieved mms but I am not running this rom. U need to try and save the recieved mms to the SD card. In gb, after receiving a mms it doesn't open in the gallery, it opens in a "slide show" mode and doesn't display the picture in all its quality. So by saving it first then viewing should give the results u r looking for

:: DARKSIDE ::

"I am turned into a sort of machine for observing facts and grinding out conclusions..."
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] synenergy52:
OK I tested it and you're right. Saving an MMS directly to the card/phone and reopened yields sharp results.

Any way to make it show up sharp in the immediate "slide show" view? Why does it show like crap there? I want to be able to instantly open up an MMS and see it nicely the first time. I don't understand what t-mobile/samsung did here and why its crappy.. wonder if theres a way to fix/hack it?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] thederekjay:
unfortunately there is no way to bypass the "slideshow" view. Design flaw by Samsung.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] synenergy52:
@TDJ, how does Samsung bypass it in ICS? Cause ICS bypasses it. Shows up sharp/full-size immediately.

I don't know if anyone has answered this (I merely scimmed through the thread since I don't have enough time to go through almost 100 pages). It seems I cannot flash this ROM with applied tags. What I mean is, for example, at the end of the file name I added "-twmod-volwake" and flashed. ROM installed and ran just fine but tw was not modified to be 5x4x5 nor did the volume keys wake the device.

Any help?

Make sure your flashing from ROOT of your sd or flags will not work.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] 8Fishes:
Best results are downloading on a computer and doing the renaming of the file there. Less change of screwing it up compared to downloading straight to phone.

I place my roms in it's own directory and it flashes fine.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] malevolent000:
Just copy from your download folder to ROOT of your sdcard.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] thederekjay:
I understand it does. It shows sharp immediately because it opens directly into the gallery, not the "slide show" mode. I have already explained this a few posts above. Its not something u just bypass, its the way its coded in Samsung source..

GB for me too

I also am waiting for a good Gingerbread firmware that has the recent Qualcomm chipset update and is also CIQ-free, debloated, etc. I actually need my phone to be stable and 100% functional (including wifi-calling, compass sensor, good battery life, etc.), so as much as I'd like to play with the ICS firmwares I don't have time to screw around with the quirks.

I'm still on Juggernaut 5.0 and was hoping to switch to DDW 3.0 when it was released, but if there isn't going to be one I might switch to Whitehawkx's semi-stock UVLDE until the official ICS drops (hopefully with wifi calling working and fewer quirks than the leaks have had). I wish that one didn't have CIQ, though.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] dex1701:
To get unlimited wifi calling (that doesn't use your plan minutes) you have to make sure T-Mobile adds it to your account, though. Otherwise it's still nice, but uses your minutes.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] drzplaya1121:
the addition to your plan is free. Its their way of clearing up their bandwidth
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] dex1701:
Yep, it's free to add as long as you don't have one of the older (grandfathered) rate plans. What I'm saying is that if you don't specifically ask for it to be added to your account you may be using plan minutes when you use wifi calling. It (unlimited free wifi calling) wasn't on my account until I called T-Mobile and asked for it, so at first I was burning through a lot of minutes with wifi calling thinking I wasn't using minutes when I actually was. ;)

I don't think you quite understand. Once ICS gets in the wild, no dev is going to be working on GB. I woudn't say they are having 'too much fun' as much as 'not enough time'.

just fyi the data scheduler (CIQ) is kernel dependent, if you don't like it try a different kernel with something like BFQ (my personal favorite) or whatever scheduler you prefer built in. I believe I have successfully used a siyah kernel and the faux kernel with this ROM. It's been awhile though so don't quote me on specific kernels passing or failing test with nandroid backups handy to find the one that meets your needs.
