There is no completely safe recovery. Duh, you are flashing custom software. Mr. X looked deeply into twrp recovery and all of the scripts it runs. There is nothing there that can mess up your phone.. Read the whole thread in general section..

You really think you are safe running cwm? If it doesn't fix permissions right, doesn't wipe caches properly, you think it its doing everything else perfect? It obviously doesn't install properly or no one would have the reboot shutdown issues.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] dayzesrs:
Lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rushing:
I look at it this way People Brick their device not their computer, not their recovery... it is what they choose to do with what they find...

When will the daily updates stop so I won't have to be tempted to update daily? lmao is this ROM almost fully developed?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rushing:
yup

Its fully 100% developed... Now flash away hourly if you want to keep up.

Welcome To DarkSide Nighly
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] MarsHD2:
When you guess update daily, do you fully wipe your devices and then restore everything all over again? Because that's the only thing stopping me from updating daily, I don't want to do full wipe everyday

I want to know if there's a way to back up my homescreen settings without having to set everything up each time I flash an update.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] MarsHD2:
Use Apex Launcher, it's way nicer and has a backup system

well i might try a aosp them....

+1 Since I started using Apex I have yet to touch a stock launcher other than to download Rom Toolbox and restore Apex, lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Dexster:
well i dont think their is with TW but with apex and nova their is but should be careful backup data and restoring data might making day long errors just to save you 5 mins
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] safeplayer22:
Yeh I know. I use ADW and it's good enough. I just didn't want another launcher since I'm ok with TW. Plus i have to be on the TW from the rom in order to have the weather on the lockscreen.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Colombia81er:
Ok i have a question.

I did the update from V2 to V3 but im still getting the message ghosting when i'm typing a text message. Then today i got the darn bug that i cant place or receive a call. So if i would to use the DARKSIDE::SUPER::WIPE what will it delete? Cause i use cache wipe

Cause im getting random freezes any app i click on it will not open nor any buttons
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Chochiwpg:
I like that feature in Apex. But for some reason I find TW faster and smoother. How does this ROM compare to TDJ'S Telus release? That's what I am running and it's awesome.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Dexster:
what message ghosting ? if you mean the input method thats in all 4.0 and all darkside ROM ass SUPER WIPE in it

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Colombia81er:
Well i never had the ghosting issue on the previous ICS that TDJ had up. Even the keyboard was way better and the T9text was way better.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] defconoi:
I don't see the point in bundling a whole rom with a few fixes when a no wipe update would be quicker. Its not a necessity to wipe user data for a kernel update for any other device.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] hiz99:
because hes the boss. there are a whole lot less problems with the wipe
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Dexster:
Try typing a txt or something you see in the status bar it say input but once you out of a typing spot its gone

full wipe is cleaner

If anyone was to do one thing wrong in that update just 1 thing it would mess up something would take lots of time to try to find out and then would need a full wipe what a full wipe is about 20mins of time
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Pandemic187:
So, I take it the ability to remove all TW is an option exclusive to UCLE2?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] CHBAD:
How is this rom compared to...

Hi folks,

I am currently running DARKSIDE.TLLE4 on a Telus Gs2x and it is really cooking!

Just wondering if anyone knows what the diff is between the Venom v.3 and the one I am running...advantages/ disadvantages? Will this TMO release work on the Telus handset?

Thanks for the feedback,

should have the CORE running super fast before you start making the the out side look different

Right now this is the best working ROM for this phone I really hate how other ROM say it has this that that and that BUT not work is SD- wifi aand other thing that makes a phone a phone

Wait, what's the difference between the two TMO Radios?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ScottBroker:
Does version 3 have mms limit set to 100???
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] MarsHD2:
You can always disable MMS limit or change it

Anybody else having camera problems with v3? I'm getting 'camera failed.' :(
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] MarsHD2:
Omg I hate having to update a ROM! Is this new version stable or not?! Everyone's saying something different every time. And What is the difference between the two radios? OP should be more clear on things like this for noobs like us, the first version only had one radio to flash
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jangst123:
TDJ any chance you can hook up with goo manager!? I'm loving it with TWRP
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] GreggoryD502:
Nobody is forcing you to update dude! First of, TDJ doesnt put out anything unless its stable. The only difference between the radios is that one may give you better signal and data speeds. Try them both and see which one you like.

P.S. Its considered rude to come into a thread and start demanding things. Do a little research first then ask your question nicely. The OP does this for free in his spare time. Show a little respect bro!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] 18.4009:
That would make this thing the absolute best!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Dexster:
hey man your right cam failed

lets do this again everyone check your cam
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] MarsHD2:
You're right, I'm sorry..I'm just irritated from past roms screwing me up. I've wasted countless hours fixing this phone. I'm really satisfied with V1, it's really amazing honestly but I want to keep up with the ROM updates and I don't want to waste hours fixing the phone again because I wasn't clear about a few things..anyways you cleared it up for me but what's a efficient way to check which radio gives a better connection for me right off the bat?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] pgallard:
WOW TDJ work his ass for making the best rom in the Android community and you complaining like a little baby because you have to flash again.

If you have problems to understand something ask nicely and stop complaining.

I can tell if its something i did yet im a take on for the team and wipe and see if the cam work but if yours dont work +1
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] thederekjay:
it does. all versions do.. what you need to do for now, until i figure out what the issue is.. just clear the data from "messaging" and reboot. That will enable the increased recipients...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] GreggoryD502:
No worries bro. You could always use the speed test app to test speeds. Or just run each one for a day or so and see how you like it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Dexster:
that speed test cost some MBs
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Celtic_Hart81:
This rom is so much faster than the stock ICS. I, however, also have a failed camera. Great work though!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] dex1701:
Mr. X had a similar problem when he first re-compiled the kernel to remove CIQ. Not sure how he fixed it, but he released a zip to patch it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] GreggoryD502:
Would you all say this is running better then TDJ's att 7.1 build. Cause I gotta say, that ROM is flying for me. Been running it since launch and not one hiccup at all!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] slycon:
Yeah, I'm receiving the "camera failed" message, too.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] MarsHD2:
Well V1 is perfect, battery lasts longer and it charges faster too. No lag whatsoever, no problems at all. I'm still waiting to flash V3 but I don't know if I should if there's a camera problem

On V2 my camera is working fine. Is GPS supposed to be working? Because mine is not. It locks on after 5-10 minutes of searching, which I don't consider working. My market also didn't work at first (yes I applied the hot fix) and I had to get an apk online and reinstall and now the market's fine. It's good for the most part. My keyboard's also fine, using swiftkey X paid version.

Quick question anyone with camera issues did you just flash official zips in cwm and never used odin to update, Or did you odin the tar file for a squeaky clean install of fresh churned (slow churned at that) official ics?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] joeyrey:
the camera issue is in v3 not v2

no your still crazy :eek:.. this is what development is all about. I wish i could foresee every little issue. The camera issue has been identified and I have already fixed it and tested. Now when I get a chance I will upload
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Dexster:
the official ics Real official ics was threw kiea so you need to flash back to stock and then update then use kiea again to update to ICS i dont see why people feel they needed to do that and i was waiting for the people who bricked their phone and the people who updated to ICS stayed up all night and then said this looks just like GB

Running almost every version of darkside and dd on 2.5 then 2.7, so far no ics ROM has come close to those buttery super smooth long lasting gingers. I'm sure once tdj gets his super tweaking on he will get ics there but no ics is a dd for me, probably going to nand back to good ok trusty 2.7 ginger. I do like some of the newer versions of the apps, Swype is better, but too much lag and stuttering for me. I know the kern is alpha so im sure again tdj will find the perfect balance as he did with ol ginger.

hmm but maybe make current alpha Kernel avail if need to flash back .. it's hard to make the dissension would i flash the next Kernal ? .. the one i'm on from V2 currently is great .. haven't left my phone alone and I'm 47% been on bat from 8:00 am and it's now 11:00 .. keep checking it and opening apps took pictures .. Facebook .. speed test .. quad test .. games .. nothing for any strait period of time .. just can't leave it alone .. in real world .. after i settle on a ROM i would be less likely to be constantly playing with it .. settings etc.. so Yeah i say it is more than good it's great.. .. if the next kernel was something even more spectacular...wow i just don't know.. :D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jtroye32:
I'm going to guess the lag and stutter with input is due to the fading in and out animations and real time search results in some text input boxes such as the browser. Otherwise there isn't any in plain text boxes.
