Happened to me with Darkside beta03, v1, and v2 running Apex Launcher and Go Launcher EX.

I just flashed Darkside v4 and I'm in the middle of re-installing all apps and re-adding every account and configuration manually. Previous flashes involved restoring user apps w/ data so I'm trying to figure out if that has something to do with it.

Recovery is CWM 5.0.2.7 non-Touch as recommended in OP. Also I used none of the wiping options in the recovery and let the wipe scripts do it all.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] thederekjay:
you also need to include the libakm.so. that will fix rotation and also fixes compass. I am aware of that and am plaaing on updating that ROM soon
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] thederekjay:
thanks. please report back and also what recovery are you using?

Music Player Chinese Text?

Hey guys, running v4 here. The Music Player app is listing a lot of my MP3 files in Chinese. Any idea what would cause this to happen? I've not changed any language settings (Default US English).

Here's a screenshot.

These MP3s look fine in Winamp on PC in terms of all metadata being in English.

* Edit * - While my PC shows me the proper metadata and names in English, Winamp on Android also lists the files in Chinese. Is this a filesystem thing?

I am using TWRP 2.1.8 and have not had any issues with anything anyone else is reporting. I am on V4.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Octane70:
Cool, when you do ill flash back to CWM and I will see if the screen freezes.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] werk:
App icons not responding to touch was also happening to me in v1.

Launcher: TW

Recover: CWM 5.0.2.7, downloaded from the OP.

I too am currently updating to v4. It is settling now. I installed following the OP instructions, skipping the radio install (installed TMo radio with v1) and without any additional wipes (only Darkside Super Wipe that the ROM does). Once it settles and I reboot, I'll try to test with no additional apps installed, only my google account and apps it restores from the play store. If no problems after a couple of hours, I'll install any apps the google restore missed from play store/amazon, not restoring any apps/data from backups and see how it goes then.

skyrocket rotation

does this mean that if i remove that from my skyrocket, i can correctly rotate the screen 90 degrees? i have screen rotation disabled at the moment to deal with it, but would love to get it back to watch videos full screen and be able to change settings in camera the right way.

Not to argue with the master but I really don't think TWRP 2.1.8 is the problem.

Been going back and forth between this and AOKP using TWRP and not having any issues here, and none on AOKP except the known ones.

But then again,, I went as far as formatting both cards recently so I'm nnice and fresh :eek:

Plus I restore absolutely NOTHING!

I do however, let Google restore my apps,, and I restore data on 1 game after google restores it

Running v4 on twrp, i have not had any "soft-freezes" since i re-disabled force 2d gpu rendering and re-enabled window and transition animations. Its been almist 24 hours since these soft-freezes... But on v2 i used cwm to flash and i had the same issue.

Also having the unresponsive/freeze reboot issue.

On V4

CWM 5.0.2.7

Stock Launcher.

After 2 days of this, I looked at Applications in Settings. Some apps that were supposed to be in SD (apps2sd) are showing 0kb. I've been able to recreate this by starting all over again.

Factory Reset. Super Wipe. Flash ROM. Boot. Wait. Reboot. Restore from Play Store.

Everything would be fine even after moving apps to sd in Settings>Applications.

The issue comes back when I reboot after moving the apps to the sd.

It could be just me with a bad SD card but just to be sure, maybe some of you having the same symptoms could check if your apps in sd are showing 0 kb.

Still trying to find a solution...

I noticed that I don't have the navigation app and.the maps app.

Was this caused by a bad flash?

How can I fix this?

I don't think they're included in the ROM. You can just install them from the Market/Play Store or restore a backup if you have one.

APEX ...

Hmm i know i'm only on V2 but .. i use apex 1.2.2... and restore from rom toolbox pro.. apps plus data ... and i have had no app issues .. no freezing ... nothing.. started off always doing app only but the last few times i tried for the heck of it doing full app and data restores .. and of course restore APEX settings.. but APEX has never given me a issue..

i only use CWM .. wiping every which direction.. install rom and follow to a tee the rules of the road.. then restore .. once i'm happy with my config.. all check boxes checked or unchecked and after i remove some of the APK's from system / apps .. basically once i get it looking and feeling like i like .. i reboot into recovery and run the Cache wipe.. just because.. never and i mean never use the delete cache or davilik using CWM .. because i can read.... and that's what the zip file is for .. so far i'm having real good luck.. or is it? called doing it right...thank you TDJ.. when i know your 100% happy with future releases.. is when I'm confident to move up.. so far the v2 kernel .. is doing me right .. battery is not bad at all ... :cool:

anyway .. people pointing at Apex or other launchers .. I'm not so sure. i have occasionally have Apex in the past restart or freeze for a moment.. i say it's just the nature of the app or any app to have random issues.. and not your ROM / Kernel

Can't pinpoint anything wrong with the rom it just is great... Battery life isn't awesome on mine but a charger is always around. Looking forward to what is next thanks Derek!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ftarules:
I used to have these issues. Then I reflashed, and this time did NOT restore data from TiBu. NOw it is running solid. If you came from gingerbread adn your backups are of gingerbread, then don't restore data. This will cause problems.

First of all - Thank you for the best ICS rom yet ...

Here is a small bug, I had this with all ICS roms so far.

Instagram - it turns on, I can browse my feed and all that.

The second I try to edit a picture, adding any filters and such, it freezes my phone completely.

The weird thing is I can do a few filters in the beginning but it then freezes. It is identical to every ICS room, and works fine with GB.

I am going to stay with Darkside ics because your roms are really by far the best, but im gonna miss instagram :( hehe

Not sure what changed with ICS, but the BT connected much faster with my car then any other ROM.

unrelated, I was streaming AUDIO from the phone from MLB2012 and it used like 10% of the battery in like 20 minutes, where the older ROM (2.5) got me nearly 90 minutes with the same thing.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DevilDogg:

Ics needs more of the gpu than gingerbread. The cpu has a lot less stress off it now so battery life will be better.

2.5 and 2.6 would drain around 10% every hour at idle.

I've gone around 4.5 hours and only 13% lost from a full charge on this ROM. I'd say battery life is much better at idle.
