+1 This is often on T-Mo's end. I've had to do that for my GF's comet, which is bone stock.

I figured I'd give an update on the wireless calling. I think people were still saying it was an issue on beta 2, but I haven't had any problems. I took a few calls yesterday that lasted a few minutes over wifi-calling and they said there was no lag. You can tell too, because the conversation was fluid and there wasn't a long pause between when i responded and their next response.

Is it possible this is an install issue? I didn't use the cache or fix permissions script TDJ provided because it worked fine without it and if I understood correctly that's a last resort sort of fix (flash it only if you need it).

1 Final question: Does anyone have visual voicemail working? I see it's included but can't enable it. Under the settings only "My carrier" is available for voicemail, and selecting the app creates problems. perhaps this is waiting for something on T-Mo's end they'll release with the rom.

freezing issues

It just keeps freezing up after using it for a little while. Hopefully it can start to work with instagram and the freezing overall will stop. thanks a lot for working on this and i appreciate the fix of the reception signal and easy toggle for gsm and 4g :)

and for those i may have confused (It doesn't only freeze with instagram.. it freezes when you go into settings sometimes and then nothing works

Voicemail Notification Icon Issues

I just wanted to hop in on this issues since I have spent a good deal of time trying to figure out whats going on. I normally use Google Voice for VM but pulled it trying to get the icon to go away. I would call my VM and leave myself a message but when I called to check it nothing was there. I set up Visual VM to see if that helped, still nothing.

Then I figured it out... When I checked around in call settings - Settings -> Call -> Call Forwarding -> Voice Call; I noticed that it still had my Google Voice numbers in there for the busy, unanswered, and unreachable options. All I had to do was 'disable' them and it defaulted back to my TMO VM -> call and leave a message -> check it / delete it -> and it FINALLY went away!

I reinstalled Google Voice and told it to be the default for VM but noticed that it did NOT change the forwarding settings again (I had to do it manually).

Something's not tying in when you tell the phone which VM service to use but it can all be corrected manually.

Hope that helps someone?

[EDIT] TDJ - I meant to tell you thank you very much for your efforts on this ROM. I know that sometimes its a beating but there are several people that truly appreciate your work and I'm sure you are aware of that.

All my FB contact/pictures show up in my contacts list also, the sync process is a little different but it's not rocket science.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] afawzi:
How did you manage to get the pictures to update? The contact will sync without pictures.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jovy23:
Try "facebook contact sync" from the play store. It allows you to synchronize your FB contacts on gingerbread and ice cream sandwich. The description says it syncs the names, pictures, and statuses. Try that and see...

EDIT : Also there is "haxsync" but you have to pay $1 for it on the play store.

Check if you have your phone number listed under settings--> about phone --> status --> My phone number. It never worked for me when I updated the radio for installing this ROM. I had to call t-mobile and they did send some activation request or something . then I rebooted and my number appeared there and Visual voice mail started working. Same for My account , it didn't work until I got my phone number to show up.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RikkKeith:
Or you can do this. All I do to sync my Facebook contacts and keep them current is, in Facebook choose sync with existing contacts, then in contacts; merge any contacts that did not merge automatically with Facebook. Then hit menu, choose mark as default, and select all the defaults I want for that contact and save.

A little bit of work, but it allows me to select all the defaults I want, including using the current Facebook photo for the default caller id display.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] asting:
HMM anything you did to get it to work? Is it a feature you need to pay for? It keeps telling me

"Your subscription cannot be completed at this time/ PLease visit my.t-mobile.com or call 611."

The more i think about it the more I think you need to pay for it.

Sorry didn't see your reply before i posted.

Huh strange. It appears there for me no problem, and the my account does work for me. I'll give them a call later though.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ScreamingSkulls:
You do have to call them and have it turned on in your account. It doesn't cost anything but they have to add the service. My phone had always worked but wife wouldn't and I went digging and found this out. I haven't tested it but I will now.

Be back shortly......

This is a great question. There was some huge backlash when this got public attention a few months ago (even though it's been known for years), so I could see them excluding it. At the same time, this is a dump and if they did included it I doubt TDJ had enough time to clean it all out, but then this is conjecture.

As far as visual voicemail, Just call em. I called anyway, without the primary's last four of social, and they were still able to enable it because I was an authorized user.

It fired up right away! Woo.

Issues with Market Apps

So I've noticed I've been unable to pull apps from the market that I've had installed in other ROMS such as Instagram, Fancy (go figure hipster apps). The Play Store says my device isn't compatible.

Wondering if the build.prop needs to be updated with different device manufacturer/make/model - currently shows up as T-Mobile Samsung SGH-T989

Any thoughts / suggestions?

It seems like my phone is running pretty warm when running a couple of media apps (Pocket Casts (not streaming), Amazon MP3). It's not hot enough to burn or anything, but it's enough to warm my hands if they're cold. If it was a pc or laptop, I'd be installing a new heatsink. While this is a handy feature in some seasons, I'm wondering if anyone else has noticed something similar and if I should be concerned. I didn't notice this on Warfare, which is why I'm mentioning it here. I'm running beta 2.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RikkKeith:
Something I've noticed, but nothing that has concerned me because it never gets 'hot'. I've noticed it seems to get warmer up towards the camera area. But with regular use, the temp seems to stay in the 80's. So I think that's good...

data restore

Just FYI .. and perhaps its obvious to most.. and I am sure TDJ would discourage this and refuse to hear any complaints by anyone who has done this but...

I have successfully gone from Beta1 to Beta2 while preserving apps and data. Just take backup while in Beta1, flash Beta2 as per TDJ's instructions, and then do advanced restore of /data only. The only Issue I encountered so far, is my missing swype keybd.. you'll need to download the Beta installer manually (You can use TB to restore the Data for Swype - but don't try to restore the app).

Great ROM BTW!

Just log on to FB as normal and choose to sync with existing contacts, then go to contacts/menu/contacts to display/I use Customized List and decide from there what you want to display. A little different than GB but pretty stright forward.

For anyone that prefers the AOSP apps such as the dialer or calendar with pinch-to-zoom over the TouchWiz versions, here's a flashable zip that replaces them.

Not my work, just what I got from someone else, who says that they got it from somewhere on the Skyrocket forum but can't remember where.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DannyB513:
I could be wrong but I do believe that this is the AOSP patch that Dan Brutal developed for his ICS ROM over at Rootzwiki.

It was not designed by TDJ for this ROM so flash at your own risk and don't come here complaining if YOU break something by flashing this zip!!!!!!

I have all AOSP on my phone but the dialer through pushing the APK's to the system. When I tried the dialer and contacts, which I know the phone and contacts apk's work together, it made my phone unusable and I had to Nandroid back to what I had before.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] manekineko:
Cool, was wondering where this came from.

If you look at the script, it's actually super simple, it's not doing anything except copying in the updated apks, so hopefully not a lot of room for screwing things up.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jesamyn:
I've noticed that the timing seems a little different with the vol down /power button combo. I have to hold them for about two seconds before I get the little preview showing the screenshot.

For those with issues gaining root access with apps.. I had to go into the settings for SuperSU and change access from "prompt" to "grant". Not as safe but that's the only way I was able to get it to work.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DannyB513:
Go into the SuperSU app itself and it may tell you the binaries need updating. The app updated a few days ago and I could not remove anything from or push to system apps. Went into app itself. It updated the binaries and no problems since. Also had to do it after restoring a nandroid backup.

Tried both still nothing.. The pop notification saying that the app was granted permissions show but the changes don't stick.. I had changed my density in the build prop to 190 when I first flashed and was trying to changed back to check something but no changes are don't and when I check the build prop it still stays on 190. Also tried uninstalling supersu and switching back to superuser with the option in su setting but that's a no good either it doesn't uninstall.. Going to reflash the rom and not update the binaries to see if that might be the issue because like I said when I first flashed I had no issues.

Loving this Rom. Great work. Only issues I'm having is when you press the phone icon it lags pretty bad. Also when you hit call log and when you call someone from the call log. Also when battery gets to about 10% phone reboots.

If I use the restart feature it will not reboot I'm sure that is due to the theme I'm using which is dark side evolution by brs. I have to pull the battery but some times the phone won't turn on have to pull the battery back out a few times... anyone else seeing any of these problem. Just reporting them otherwise love this Rom

Working very nicely so far.

Two things I noticed that are not working 100% correctly:

1. The first time I tried to launch my messaging app in Apex from the dock, it said it could not launch the program. I had delete it from the dock, go into my app drawer, and drag and drop the program from there back into the dock. Worked perfectly after that.

2. Wallpaper resizing is not working when I choose "Gallery." Not a bid deal for me, and I'm not sure if it has been mentioned previously. Sorry if it has.

All in all it seems to be working great!

My signal is not very good since I flashed it, but I'll try a different Radio.
