Does anyone know why we cannot add apps thru root explorer
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] zander21510:
I've really had no problems...dark side super wipe flashed v2, wiped cache dalvik fixed permissions. Wiped cache dalvik and Flashed 2.2 over that, wipes cache dalvix fixed permissions again. I've had no problems, minus the reboot which really isn't a big deal since it is a wip.

I just tested my alarm clock and it worked for me!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Bermudian:
Is the gallery functional. I have this ICS Perfection ROM, and everything is great but the Gallery and Camera.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Crewchief521:
My camera and gallery work just fine, the only quirk is the settings on the camera dont open up right, u have to kinda tilt your head to set them. No biggie for me since once i set them im good with what i set.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] treleung:
Hi, so far, this is functioning pretty well. Question-

I have tried all the variants of ICS so far, and the flashable DSP Manager from CM9 works in all of the roms except for this one. It launched properly at first, then FCd. Now it FCs when you tap to open it.

Ideas?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AJ26T:
Quick question what playstore is this one running how come it's different then other ics roms

For example on this rom when u go.into myapps you are able to slide to.the right n see ur history of apps other ics roms don't have this
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Crewchief521:
Thats just the newest Play Store Version i think its 3.5.15.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Crewchief521:
Does anyone know how we can get the 3 "buttons" at the bottom of the screen like in this picture?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Arh1tekt:
You are right! the TW alarm works but the stock alarm does not. Not sure why there are both in the ROM but I'll use the TW alarm for now..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] zander21510:
You don't need the buttons...they are built into the phone...those 4 glowing things below the screen :P thats just for the galaxy nexus folks who don't have those buttons built in.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Crewchief521:
I like multitask one tho

---------- Post added at 11:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:18 AM ----------

Didn't even notice another one, course i just push the clock on beautiful widgets and it defaults to TW.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] degeneration:
Did you try holding down the home key? On ICS for my SGS1 that brought up multitasking. I THINK that wasn't something custom to that rom, but built into ics. TW might also have changed that though.

When i Flash......after exact instructinos, after the Samsung Boot logo....the Bootanimation starts, but freezes and starts looping....any help please?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] virajss:
I had the same issue.

Reboot to recovery, wipe data twice ...then wipe cache/dalvik twice .. then run the darkside superwipe and then try installign the v2.2 update.

It worked for me.

P.S: Please do not quote the entire OP in your questions.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Crewchief521:
I tested out the stock alarm and it worked for me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bougelahi:
The stock alarm clock also worked for me this morning
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Arh1tekt:

Quick question. Ive yet to ever flash anything on to this phone ( I have done it in the past with my tablet and Vibrant).

When i went to do a nandroid backup i got a "cant mount /sdcard" message. I dont have a microSD in. Should CWM be looking for the onboard SD or a microSD?

Im running CWM 5.0.2.6

android.process.acore

Rom is looking great and thanks for all the hard work on this.

So far I keep getting "Unfortunately, the process android.process.acore has stopped." every few seconds. Ive cleaned, wiped and fixed permissions.

Any ideas?

Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] chasport:
you restored some sort of system setting from TI backup. you'll keep getting acore FCs until you either 1-wipe that data causing the FC then wipe cache, dalvik, fix perms OR 2-do a fresh install and dont restore any system settings

Contacts and MMS restoring can sometimes cause this too.

Check and have the latest flash player. I tested this same scenario on another TW ICS rom and same issue. I think it's a problem linking the download notification to the download app in ICS. Could be related to all skyrocket rom ports..

can anyone on v2.2 confirm whether or not the shutdown bug has indeed been fixed?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jdiddy_ub:
same thing is happening to me...i super dark wiped and reflashed...it just flashes the samsung logo a couple of times then shuts off

gonna try it one or 2 more times...if i still get stuck im gonna nandroid back :mad:

edit: redownloaded the rom...flashed it again...flashed the samsung logo like 3 times...started going into the boot animation then just started flashing samsung again?

ok...so i just superwiped again, re-flashed...this time it loaded to the boot animation (the color tiles?) it was at that screen for like 3 mins then the screen timed out...hit the power button and it went back to the color tiles animation...

another edit: hmmm....so i just let it sit there with the screen off hoping it will load...i hit the power button and guess what...its at the start up screen...weird...perhaps you should add that the screen times out in the OP...unless what happened to me isnt normal....gonna let it sit for an extra 10 mins now since i dont know when it loaded since the screen was off the entire time
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] dream8441:
Yep...all the same no issues yet can't get past to make it boot
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jdiddy_ub:
if you are able to get to the boot animation (the color tiles flashing) let it sit for like 10 mins then press the press button...apparently it was loading with the screen off...i just let it do its thing and turned the screen on after 10 mins and it was done

Having an issue now where I charge my oem samsung batteries with my oem samsung charger then put it in the phone and it show 75%. Then it actually goes up instead of draining. Restarting doesn't fix it. Any ideas?

Seems more like a reporting error. The but it didn't do this the first couple days.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jdiddy_ub:
calibration?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] gorillaz1:
Everyone on here always says it doesn't do anything, would it help in this case ya think?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jdiddy_ub:
it doesnt do what people think it does...people assume that it gives them longer battery life...thats not what it does..its for making sure that the values are lined up...sometimes when you flash your phone the battery stats get out of whack...meaning it may show 70% when your battery is 80% full...what the calibration does is it "relearns" the values/range from 0-100 so that it syncs up

if you said that the % doesnt match what it should be and randomly climbs up then yes, it would probably help you...ive done calibrations many times in the past and can tell you with certainty that its helped me before
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] gorillaz1:
Sounds like a plan to me when is the best time to do it? 100%? Or doesn't matter?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jdiddy_ub:
everyone has a different method...this is what i do...

1. charge to 100% leave it plugged in for another 10 mins

2. delete batterystats.bin

3. reboot directly after..i dont even exit the file explorer i just hold power from there (still plugged in)

4. let it boot up then leave it another 5 mins

5. unplug and discharge to 0

6. plug it in and let it charge to 100% uninterrupted

so basically 100% to 0 to 100% that way it learns the values
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sarni84:
deleting battery stats is a myth it does not work....at all in some way it does help with values but that was with older phones especially the vibrant.... phones have changed i would just do the norm when it comes to conditioning a battery

http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=...vPWQDg&usg=AFQjCNGKCsLQ5RAAlmuLv38bC_Oqm6ekQw
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jdiddy_ub:
ive seen that before...but ill say this...i have had times after i flashed a rom where my battery was bonkers....it would show like 40% and if i reboot it would come back on at like 65%...i would do the process i mentioned above and if i reboot it, it turns on at the same percentage give or take + or -1%

if you read that link you sent me some else wrote:

Alessandro Barone - I'm not really In the position to argue your statement but after a while on my nexus one, my battery starts to die at 20% and will keep increasing until at most 25%. Once my battery reaches 25% it makes the 15% low battery noise and jumps directly to zero. I am still able to power the device on after, because clearly there is still charge left in the battery.Once I wipe the battery stats and leave my phone in bootloader mode until it completely dies, seems to reset it and my battery returns to dieing at zero and I get 20% more charge/use out of my phone. So in my experience, this extends my battery life to what it should be.

Jan 14, 2012

heres another one:

semeon korsunsky - +Dianne Hackborn lol, i like your argument :) im not arguing though. im just reporting what i see. i flash kernels/roms on a daily basis to test for a certain developer, and i frequently see that after a reboot/flash the battery levels can vary wildly. not every time though. i used the 8% to 53% as an example because it happened this morning. and i know that the 53% wasnt accurate, because with use, it dropped fast. after deleting the file and rebooting, it was back to normal. whether deleting the file helped i dont know, maybe just a reboot without deleting would have fixed it, its possible. but id have to say that i must have seen that behavior hundreds of times over the past 3.5 years. ive always assumed that the meter was inaccurate. i could be wrong, i dont know. but something is definitely going on with reporting the battery percentage.

Jan 16, 2012

-------------------------------------------------

maybe the file isnt directly responsible for the battery reading but i challenge you to charge your phone delete the batterystats.bin and tell me that your phone doesnt discharge a little slower than normal....i know it has that affect as ive seen it a bunch of times...i aint crazy
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sarni84:
yea i agree with what you are saying like i said ive seen this with the vibrant but if u ask me my dude **** is just what u personally wanna do ya know? honestly if u feel it works or it dont work u will do it regardless. i kinda dont know what to believe really anymore but i do no one thing deleting battery stats on our phone does absolutely nothing. but on my older phones i thought it did when flashing a new rom:confused:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jdiddy_ub:
well..most of my experiences in this department come from older phones (like you mentioned) as i used to have a g1 then moved onto the vibrant then to this...whether or not it makes a difference on our GS2s idk...but i KNOW it did on my past devices...ive only had this phone for a few months so i havent calibrated much if at all...now i actually try to flash my roms when my battery is full...that way i dont have the battery paranoia

Sorry for asking again.

But has ANYONE encountered any weakness in vibration on this rom or any ics leaks?

I haven't seen anyone reply.

Hopefully some light can be shed on the situation.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Christ1119:
I've noticed the weakness in vibration. I feel like when I press the home button there's a tiny bit of lag in the vibration also compared to the other buttons that vibrate right away (although, weakly). Noticed it on all the ICS ROMs I've tried
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Locksmith81:
It's not lag it's the way it was designed....to vibrate upon depress of the home button...or on the up of the press...makes sense?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] autom8r:
Turn up the vibration intensity, it's not high for all settings by default. Turning it up to high worked for me.

Cheers
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jdiddy_ub:
this rom is awesome and stable as hell...great work man!

sadly i reverted back to GB because of the camera orientation..having to flip pics after you take them and only being able to record in landscape mode annoys the hell out of me

ICS is really nice and i hope we get an official build for the t989 soon
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] JaZart:
Vibration intensity is all the way up and I still get a weak vibration.

On other roms I've tried, the vibration was just fine...but it's just way to weak when my phones on vib.

Also, I agree with the above poster about the vibration giving a late response. That does not FEEL right.

This is a problem among all the ics roms it seems(I've flashed many)

I'm just surprised that no one or any devs have acknowledged the issue.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] michaellindsaymobile:
I just want to post my experience when I was flashing this rom. I had a rough start because I decided I probably didn't have to do the super wipe and ended up getting boot looped and not able to get into recovery. I eventually somehow got booted into it without pressing any buttons. I downloaded the super wipe .zip and mounted my device in recovery, transferred it over, flashed the zip and then the rom and it worked fine. I enjoy what I have seen so far as I've been waiting for ICS for 5+ months for the T989.

Anyways my question is, has anyone else had issues with the GPS not being able to find your location. I'm horrible with directions so I need it and it's kind of a deal breaker with me sticking with this rom or not. I'm really enjoying it and would hate something as dinky as the GPS to ruin using ICS. I saw in the original post that the GPS was working which is why I decided to use this rom. If anyone has any tips on how to fix it that would be fantastic, thank you.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Lavundra21:
something went wrong with my phone. i was running this rom for days. then all of a sudden i turned it off to charge and when it said 100% i tried to turn it only to get nothing but the boot up animation and a series of vibrations. so i went into recovery to try and reflash and got same results.

i even tried to odin back to stock and other previous roms and it fails everytime. no clue what happened. ive been flashing and using odin since the G1 days so i have experience. just never had a case like this before. can anybody lend a hand?
