First of all, good rom but the theme is kinda weird. Example: USB storage screen, the button is too dark maybe you could make it whiter, also same button in accounts,sync etc. Battery life is less than 1/2 of GB. On a normal day in GB, i use my phone all through school from 7 am to 2 pm then i let it standby on my desk when i come back and charge it before i go to sleep at 9pm. Today with ICS i had school ffrom 7 am to 10pm and by 2 pm the battery was dead.

AOSP mms and cam

I pushed these two files from an AOKP build and they run but with bugs, I figure they might be easier for a fix on your end, specifically the camera.

Camera: after pushing and changing their permissions and rebooting, aosp camera will work and take 8mp photos and will have working effects, video will function for about 10-15 seconds then freeze, and the panoramic pic option just makes the system freeze.

Mms: After following the same process with the camera, mms app will open, you can compose a new message and send it, however as soon as you try and enter ANY conversation it will freeze/fc. I sent a message, it froze/fc in the conversation list, and I received a reply when trying to open the thread it froze/fc.

Anybody have any thoughts on getting these to work? I can also attach the files I used

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] armyofbear136:
Well you are free to believe what you want but if you knew anything about supercharger it actually doesn't kill apps very often as it's configured for our memory profiles. It's not a script that runs in the background, it simply reconfigures the android OS UPON BOOT (script only runs once) to more optimally handle the killing of apps (which Android already does on its own) in fact because our phones have so much memory the v6 script tends to make applications STAY in memory for lightning fast multitasking. You are mistaken as the script is logically healthier for our phones than stock settings. I do not want people getting the wrong ideas :/ and my wifi still works fine and although i am aware that there is an option that will break wifi on ics i don't use that option and if you follow my guide you won't either.

But that's just v6 supercharger. And like I said before its not as important as the battery saving you get with KAK but that doesn't make it bad for our phones and with a combo of all the scripts you get top performance + efficiency.

But if anyones mind still needs changing, here's my battery usage from last night with data ON (when I turned on my phone it was actually at 97% I just didn't have the screenshot app :(

And once again if you missed the scripts you can find my guide here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=24717530&postcount=797

I've been having very few issues with the ROM, but the only thing that has been a problem is how games perform. I tried loading Plants vs Zombies and Where's My Water, and they would both load, but with 5-10X longer loading times. PVZ would actually crash half of the time. Has anyone else seen this?

I tried reinstalling each of them so I could be sure it wasn't an issue with Titanium, and I still had the same issue. I wiped all cache/fixed permissions and still the loading times were slow.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AJ26T:
all I did was push this accuweather apk to system/app fixed permissions n set it up in settings

Reason it force closes is there is no weather app in this rom

I'm not 100% sure the super charger works either, but I do know that after a few power cycles (completely dead, fully charged) this could be more evident.

As for the GPS, I did the patch, you can find it in the forum or search this thread, and it locked very quickly this morning for me. I live in the sticks as well.

I'm on RC5, seems very stable.

Okay, I tried the copy of the APK. I overwrote it. It showed up as an option when going to change the lockscreen wallpaper, didn't work though as gallery never opened.

So I went INTO the gallery, and told it to apply an image as the lockscreen wallpaper...worked!

Keep in mind I had copied the APK from "AJ26T" to the apps folder.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] armyofbear136:
Ya dude! I've loved these scripts thoroughly on gingerbread and I don't see them very often on the boards anymore... We want our batteries back! And we're taking them back! I've had friends test them on their phones too and the reaction is unanimous. Most of the time it "feels like a new phone". And even when you're setting up zepplinrox's scripts you can tell immediately that he knows exactly what he is doing through the use of intuitive interface and dialogue with the user as well as concise (and sometimes funny) explanations for what's going on.

I'm hoping with the ICS release that these scripts grow in popularity since many users will not be satisfied with battery life as is, and as far as I'm concerned these tweaks should be applied for and will benefit any android device. I've only seen improvement across the board on several devices, and with the t989 seeming to benefit most overall.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] armyofbear136:
It's a shame because as much as we can clean our systems and keep them optimized, there's little we can do about battery drain from the screen/CPU/data under load. You're gonna use alot of battery if you're using your phone and it's not TOO much more than on GB with this rom but at least I feel like it's a bit power hungry when using the phone. I was running at 1.5ghz for a while but I think 1.2ghz is sufficient (and I think the dev thinks so too) and seems to be helping out with the battery. The only other thing that would help at this point is lowering the speed setting in the 3gturbocharger script... i never had a problem with the fastest?! setting draining too much battery on GB and on ICS I personally i still don't have a problem with it (if it's causing any extra drain) but it's been reported the "less fast" tweaks conserve more battery... by how much? Not sure.

Also a HUGE deal for me is how much better the audio quality is over gb... like omg the audio over Bluetooth in my car sounds NOTICABLY better. It may just be ics it may be Raver but Raver brought it to me and I love it very much. #audiophile

Haha alright I'm sorry I didn't mean to hijack and I mean no Ill will :) I'll let this be my last post on the subject :)

I came to find that my battery drained a little bit fast with the screen on and I wanted to tackle that challenge for you guys and I've had some results with the 3gturbocharger, the battery saving option "quick" seems to provide some considerable savings. In combination with a 1.2ghz under clock and all the tweaks the phone still feels very fast and the data speeds are actually pretty decent and the battery life isn't too shabby with the screen off and its great with it off it seems to offer the best battery savings overall and still provides a really good experience. Heres a screenshot of the data I got on the "quick" setting. And as I said I'll keep this as my last post on the subject and direct attention elsewhere and resume normal activity. Thanks again Raver.

I don't know about that high ping but it definitely isn't that high in normal use.

Awesome job, Raver! Despite a few bugs, this is a fantastic rom. I had a hard time finding what's currently not working, so I though I'd put a comprehensive list here for future viewers. Maybe others can add what they find and their solutions (if any).

** No rotation on home screen using Apex UI. Rotations work fine otherwise. (I put on ** Launcher Pro and this fixed this problem).

** A bit sluggish.

** Lock screen wallpaper chooser FCs.

** Camera/Video camera not fully functional (camera up to 3 mp and video camera stops).

** Some apps FC periodically.

** Issues with SMS/MMS (I use GoSMS Pro which works great).

** Menu colors and button text colors make it difficult to read (I may take a crack at fixing this myself).

Please add to the list.

I use ROM Manager to run fix perms while running. I have had issues using it from recovery via CWR Touch (Open Source version not from ROM manager flash, though I will test that and see what happens).

ROM Manager basically asks for root then opens a shell window and runs through everything and scrolls the progress as it proceeds and I saw everything get processed this way.
