They don't care to listen but to read as well. Most of their questions have already been answer not once but many times.

Guys please read the entire OP and understand it before flashing this rom then search the thread if you have any questions just in case your question has already been asked and answered to avoid cluttering up the thread and make it difficult to read thru it.

Battery drain?

Something in this rom is killing my battery. Went to sleep with a full charge, woke up with 23% batt life remaining :eek:. Even had phone in sleep mode. Looked at the battery stats and AWAKE had a full line while everything else was barely nothing. Wasn't a rogue app as I have watchdog and nothing out of the ordinary was going on with any apps. Went back to Beta2 where I never had such battery drain issues :(
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] gear79:
Been playing with this one for a few days now, had a random crash. Took out battery, rebooted, got stuck on black screen. Took out battery again, worked fine. One of the things I noticed most, and perhaps its just me or some of the incompatibility of other apps, but copy and paste stopped working. Some store apps specifiy for ICS but I cant find a working one.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tonebone:
I read over in the ICS thread that you need to flash firmware before the update, but that is a royal pain in the ass... Restore back to stock, unroot, try to get kies to work, bla bla bla... is this really necessary or can I just wait until a darkside release with the official Tmobile ICS and flash it?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] thederekjay:
Or flash the Odin version...

This rom is great as a daily and I love it. The only complaint I have isn't really a huge deal, but it's going to the home screen it lags just a little bit. Is there a planned update for this? I read through the thread and didn't see anything about it, but I just skimmed so I could have missed it. Your work is awesome and I greatly appreciate the time and effort you put into it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ElectricBubble:
I have really ****ty 5$ ear phones and i have noticed a massive difference. Iv have used dps for the virtualization effect (LOVE THIS EFFECT AND I WANT IT :) ). And is just sounds like complete and utter **** without beats. and im not saying it's a small difference one could possible make up in his mind.

I disabled it = Complete ****

On = Amazing Godly goodness (I Can Not stress Enough That DPS & Beats make's Room, Virtualization= Epic)

,

But i understand why you Doubt it Beats and Dps do nothing when they stand alone. M&S's Roms are the only ones that i actually noticed Beats working, it's something about files not being placed in the wrong place. I don't know how to get beats working with dps manager. For now im trying to learn the system so i can get it working.

It's ur rom and im not telling you to do anything. But maybe a Dev could help me get this working? Ill see if M&S can maybe help me.

Im Obviously 100% sure it work's you don't have to believe me. But could you help me?

Edit: Ps i think i have beats working but i wont be able to really tell till I can get dsp working.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] thederekjay:
I have tested out of curiosity .. first just the dsp from cm9 with correct files and libs. It installed fine, nothing changed when adjusting the settings. I also installed the beats stuff with correct files in the correct locations, if anything it made the sound worse and system verrrry laggy. This is all tested with my 300$ beats studio headphones. So to me its all a gimmick and your messing with lib files that are compiled for our hardware/software. Its on you what u do. But nothing beats player pro with the dsp addon on rock with bass turned 3/4 the way up, amazing sound on my beats headphones

:: DARKSIDE ::

"I am turned into a sort of machine for observing facts and grinding out conclusions..."
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] xcrazydx:
This is exactly right. It causes lag, FC, and system instability. And it sounds like ass. Player pro or poweramp works much better. Also tested myself
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] gear79:
I'd just be happy with a volume boost on speaker... :p
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ElectricBubble:
I Don't think this would have any effect on higher end head phones.

I Have had a similar result except after some messing around a little i had dsp manager work temporary (only the equalizer), but then i messed it up face palm. I Went into power amp and used some of there options to fix lag. I didnt flash dps though i placed the libs and extra manually.

Things arnt working properly because neither were Beats nor Dsp have been designed for our phone.

i don't think all the files are being placed in the right positions. (Why DSP Wouldn't be working) Beats and CM9 Libs overlap Audio Effects.config also overlap and probable other stuff so i have no idea how to get the both working (possible changed the name of the files and point it to the the new name, if that's even possible) . and there files are different (Also a possible problem).

AND MANY Thx for giving it ago although with 200$ ear phones this wont be any help to you as beats is designed to modify sound waves or somthin like that for low end ear phones if anything id imagine you would get a decrease in quality.

I Have heard Beats and DSP working amazingly on GB And I'll See If i can get it working with in the month.

If i can't my 2 options are either buy Awesome Ear Phones. or go back to gb.

EDIT: Also Room virtualization NVR WORKED ON Headphones when i tested on GB Only Ear Phones. (Or at least it wasn't as noticeable or amazing)

2 Edit: Everything's really Derpy ima do a clean flash and try some new stuff.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] xcrazydx:
You're a funny dude. Good luck with your beats and dsp

Maybe you could just buy better headphones and forget the beats and dsp??
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ElectricBubble:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Splaktar:

I havent used stock sms since the first day I got the phone. Not sure how much stock uses, but gosms doesn't seem to have any real drain

Idle battery drain

I am getting strange battery drain on this.. Overnight it went from 68% to 44% in about 8 hours. (wifi on, wifi calling on). The awake bar in battery stats wasn't on the whole time. So it appeared normal. I did notice though, that Android OS had an awake time of 8 hours (the whole time the phone was on). So something with the OS is keeping it awake...

I used CPUSpy and noticed it was staying at 384Mhz the whole time, never going into deep sleep.

I have no unusual apps that could be doing this. (Google Voice, Facebook, Facebook Messenger, dropbox, and that's about it since I got lazy to install my other apps before going to bed).

This also happened to me on the Chicago ICS rom, but it drained more around 5 to 10% an hour.. what the heck.

Anyone else getting this? Never happened with gingerbread.. but I don't wanna go back to that :(
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] kevinbear:
Do you have Amazon's Appstore installed by chance? It was killing the battery life on my phone recently. Once I uninstalled, battery life went back to normal.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tjbiker031:
Well I can tell you that with wifi and hotpot on, that kills battery like crazy. Look at your battery stats and see what is active killing it.

On a side note. Check out tdj's others AT&T ICS ROM. I'm on it and it's more stable and works like a dream. This version probably won't get much updates until official is released.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] evanladoux:
Didn't find it. please post a link.

just got the free version from the market though.

UPDATE: cant hear any difference with free version on/off. I saw one review that said that the paid version worked & his free one didn't.

Anybody know?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] gooface:
Are there going to be any more updates for this? Or do we have to switch over to the AT&T leak?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] 499:
I had this ROM going and had a few hiccups. Changed to the ATT version on the ROM and think I'm going to nandroid back to this. Wish there was a few more stability fixes or any type of updates. Regardless I'm coming back. Nice clean version of ICS...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] daihung1:
I'm currently on this Rom. I too would jump over to tdj's newest AT&T Rom if not for the low vibration intensity issue with all AT&T Roms. I hope this one gets update too.

Same here, though my studio headphones only cost $150, when I even tried beats one time it fried the install pretty good and had to re flash even. When it did work phone sounded like fart in a tin can. I will have to try player pro, but I like winamp (pro $5 to enable equalizer) the sound I get with that is top notch and it is all in one package with a nice shoutcast streaming interface to boot :)

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] thederekjay:
you have to disable one in order to have the other. qmg are disabled
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] frescoraja:
It's not a bug, it's a setting in the init file on the kernel ramdisk. To edit, you would have to extract the initrd from the boot.img, decompress the initrd into its kernel + initrd filesystem components, edit the init.rc (or init.c i forget) to remove the part where it changes the bootanimation, then recompress and recreate the boot.img then flash! If you have linux or cygwin there are some scripts out there that make it pretty easy. Let me know if you need help.

I don't know if I'm the only person experiencing this, but I have an issue where my wi-fi calling says I don't have the correct SIM card for Wi-Fi calls (I do, they've even worked on this ROM, but they went away mysteriously a few days ago; it looks works when I boot then goes away once everything starts running)

I'm having the same issue with my camera and gallery, they will open right when I boot, then the camera says it's scanning my media (SD Card) then it just closes the camera or gallery with no warning and does nothing other than close them to the home screen.

Is anybody else having this issue and have you fixed it somehow? I tried running a fix permissions in ROM Manager but it didn't do anything, as info.

For the record, I searched the thread and tried the "Clear Data on Gallery and Camera" and it didn't work. It still says "Media Scanner Running..." when I open the camera, then it just closes with no warning and doesn't reopen it or anything.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sabreful:
still using this as my DD till I can find something better. keep it up TDJ.

...the question is does anyone know how to enable 180° rotation in this rom? I've looked around and there's not a lot of info. cm9 etc offers it as an option through their Roms, is that something we can tweak here at all?

the media scanner runs on boot ever time the device is rebooted. its not an issue. give it a few minutes to complete and all is well. while the media scanner is running you cant access the camera or gallery for the fact that its scanning..

I think this is still the rom to beat. All of the At&t ports have extremely low dock audio and remnants of At&t Branded stuff. Also, This seems to be the only ICS rom that wi-fi calling works on... Both wi-fi calling and dock audio are huge features for me. Not sure why all the work is being invested in reverse engineering at&t bases vs. bug fixing this base.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] thederekjay:
I have done as much as I can with this base. Granted this is a tmo base with a tmo kernel, things will run as expected. There are bugs that really need to be addressed by Samsung and not much I can do. The att base has it bugs too, but is more complete and well rounded. Wifi calling isn't a huge issue for me, but believe me I much rather be running a tmo base. I just need something solid. I am eagerly awaiting the release of the tmo official just like everyone else. But right now I am using the more overall complete base and running with it. All these bases have their issues, if you want ics you jeed to choose a lesser of 2 evils.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] pantect:
You don't have to flash a new radio for gingerbread, all radios work on any OS, however if you did flash the ICS firmware i advise that you flash a gingerbread firmware as you should also do a full wipe (at least twice for safer transition back).
