The wifi delay happened to me also but there is an easy fix for that which i did. Just TURN OFF wifi calling in settings! Lol ima leave it off till its fixed because with it off there is no delay and calls go thru instantly.

I am getting crazy bad battery life.. Something called Media Scanner is using 47% of my battery and it went to 35% battery in 2 hours with no calls and no surfing..

It is draining so fast I plugged it into my computer to charge and it says charging but went down 2% in a hour, when it normally it would be fully charged after an hour..

Any ideas? I do have a 32GB Card with movies and MP3's on it, and a hidden folder with 12GB of movies.. (just normal action movies that I do not want my kids to watch)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DigitalJedi:
@duglas...Did you calibrate your battery after flashing? Charge to 100%, keep on the charger for at least another 30 minutes, remove, use until the phone shuts off, repeat 2 or more times. If you don't flash at ROM at a full charge then sometimes your battery life can get out of whack.

For anyone interested I reviewed the ROM on my blog: http://djandroidtips.blogspot.com/2012/05/darkside-evolved-rom-review.html
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] kCelsius:
I had this problem too. Go look kntk what apps are under the media usage and then go freeze the app-that should work bc i had the same problem.

I have a question...I just happened to go into the supersu app and it said su binary needs to be updated. When I try it fails...idk if its a big deal but thought I would ask.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Octane70:
Mine did that too, but mine updated. reboot and try again.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] foreverloco:
One thing I've noticed is that once in awhile after a reboot the phone will scan for errors like the media scanner but won't finish and it stays without signal or anything and I have to reboot it to get everything working

Amazingly, (I'm guessing due to the new Radio) I don't get complaints of echo while a cover is on the phone! Would like to understand how a new Radio could have fixed this issue...:confused: Or is it due to ICS?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DigitalJedi:
I got Autostarts from the Play Store long ago. I've used it on several ROMs and a few phones with success. You can find it here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...vbS5lbHNkb2VyZmVyLmFuZHJvaWQuYXV0b3N0YXJ0cyJd. I might try Gideon's script at some point. I just have had the "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" outlook on it all, but now that I'm having an occasional SU issue with Autostarts I might have to try some other things.

Thanks for the kind words.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RikkKeith:
This is funny because I was just sitting down to give a quick update because I had that problem for 3 days. Now wow...you have a lot of media, but here's my quick run down. I have posted about it a few times, so just a quick take on me finally getting it fixed. So after flashing this ROM & re-flashing and then again. I started reading...a lot; many different forums. The common factor seemed to be a corrupt media file somewhere. Maybe one file, maybe a bunch of files.

In reading I was surprised at how many people across different forums (outside XDA) were having this issue on ICS forums.

I'm not going to go into a lot of detail, but this worked for me...finally. What I ended up doing was pulling everything off my internal and external SD cards and reformatted them both. I started pulling media off little by little trying to find the culprit, but that got old real fast, so just pulled everything off and reformatted them. As soon as I put my external SD card back in, booted up...my problem was solved.

I didn't have that much media on my cards to begin with. I had no music, because I use Google Music, but had many ringtone's, very few pictures & no videos; so I know it didn't keep running because it had a lot to scan, so that was not the issue. It had to be a corrupt file somewhere that ICS didn't seem to like because the media server ran all night 2 nights ago.

This may not help you or others who are having a similar issue. But I have never reformatted my card, which I've used for a couple years...So it couldn't hurt to try either. I used my PC to format my SD card; and after a lot of checking, the media server/scanner doesn't show up under battery use any more. Before it would show up first thing and use more battery than my 'on-screen' time. I have added and taken several pictures since and still not showing up.

It was the only issue I was having. Now enjoying the hell out of my new toy...Awesome work....Thank you!

Maybe this will help somebody out there with this issue. Oh, and I did defrost all of the apps I froze thinking they could be responsible for the issue, and still working great.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] pyraxiate:
Its not the radio which stopped the echo. Its the T-Mobile Leaked kernel which corrected it. TDJ, everything is still running strong here. I'm shocked that I finally broke 5 hours of screen on time. This is the most I've ever gotten to include GB Roms!

Seems like this from is a hit or miss for people
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Towle:
Weirdest thing happened today.. All of a sudden I was getting missed calls (phone wasn't ringing). So I tried calling people back, and realized none of the speakers were working. Tried bluetooth and speaker phone, I couldn't hear anything, and nobody could hear me.

Tried a regular reboot, didn't work. Tried going into recovery and flashing the cache.wipe, didn't work. I'm sure doing another clean install of the rom will fix it, but I've done that a few times to fix issues. It seems like the ICS builds run great for the first couple of days, but then start to slowly develop issues.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] vybzkartel:
Really good battery life.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] xsteven77x:
There is a script built into the rom that forces a full wipe whenever installing. In theory you could remove that. It is recommended to do a full wipe so if you don't then whatever problems you have should not be reported here :)

P.S. That is what i did, and have had no problems.

Tip...its known we can't delete call log.since its base bug. but after playing around today I noticed when you click on the contact from your call log it takes you to another window showing the name/number and time you can press menu and select delete it will clear the call you made for that particular call.. or if you want to clear all log at once go to settings applications select all and look for logs provider hit clear data that clears everything....:D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ScreamingSkulls:
Tdj has already said a dozen times, if you don't flash per his requirements don't complain. This isn't at you but to anyone who decides to do things they own way.

"sim card initializing..." when i try to change "contacts to display" in "contacts". just me?

edit: darkside cachewipe fixed it. messaging app in dock bar won't launch until replaced. data toggle in quick settings doesn't change. fixes?

edit2: sim contacts appear on boot but disappear after a minute, after which get "sim card initializing..." again. sim contacts do appear in import/export contacts.

I know this isn't the right place for this, but anyone complaining about battery life... You should really consider in investing in this.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0078WR4KW/ref=oh_details_o00_s01_i00

After about a week, each battery gives me about 12 hours of moderate use, using this ROM.

With the latest version [beta2], I've been doing about 15 hours on each charge. And there's 2 batteries, PLUS a wall charger which lets your charge a battery without it being inside the phone.

Great deal for only 19 bucks. It was 15 bucks a week ago, but yeah...

This rom is great, btw.

I have experienced some slow-downs after a while but it's nothing a quick reboot can't fix.

Anyone having texting issues?

I've had friends complain saying that I'm sending them several copies of each message I send. Also, there have been people that have sent me messages and I've only received about half of them.

Any ideas?

Yea this rom is a hit or miss for people. Some people saying it works perfect, while others have issues.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] teambestyrandy:
Recommend double reflash of the rrom...

follow op

boot it up let it load

Settle for 10min

Reflash rom

There shouldn't be any issue...

For people reporting bad battery life (that isn't being caused by the media scanner), what radio are you using? Using the TMO leaked radio, my battery was pretty bad, but for me, the LB7 (Blaze) radio gives fantastic battery life.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] algorhythm:
What is "removed exchange security policy"...? My exchange admin forces a PIN lock screen and I was hoping this change in beta 2 would bypass that but it seems that it does not.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] pyraxiate:
Im on the east coast ( Maryland ). The latest leaked radio yields over 5 hours of screen on time ( 100 % 4g + auto backlight ). No mods, adds, tricks, or apps. Just TDJ's Beta 2 and the leaked radio. Also, I get a stronger signal in areas I didn't prior. I spend most of my work day driving in every nook and cranny of the city and its a night and day difference. If you are east coast, you might want to give it a shot :-D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] lantigua:

You can use you nandroid data backup. Just go to recovery, backup and restore, advance restore, restore data. I have done it on many ROMs. Even from different roms and don't have issues often. Ocassionaly one or two apps that aren't compatible with ICS, but no biggest on them. I rarely use tb anymore.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] lordofthegnomes:
Upgraded to the latest version of this rom on tuesday, it has been functioning well. I switched my radio to the nexusmod telus radio and my signal has been strong (I did get the data roaming notification on the tmo radio.) Battery life is strong and the rom handles emulators no problem.

Only one minor issue to report. The autobrightness toggle has a mind of its own, no matter how I set the brightness options whether in system settings or through the toggles the brightness settings always reverts to auto function. It seems that any app that has a brightness setting within it will override the phone settings that I set through the toggle. Not crucial just a minor inconvenience.

Excellent rom functions smoothly. Thank you TDJ.
