For that long post back a couple...

Sounds like what I was experiencing until I edited 00darkside (as listed back a bit (copied my edited file). Not sure if it is a true fix but it helped for me when I had what sounds a lot like the same issues you report. After the edit though my phone runs 2b2 better than GB based ROMs now.

Again, not saying the scripts are at fault at all, just that you could try what I did and see if it helps you. Or turned what was an constant FC freeze up to the point the phone was unusable to a beautiful daily driver, and I promise I tried working through the freezing for hours trying many different things and it cleared up after edit, restart clear caches fix perms and restart (which same thing didn't help before edit) do a again just something I tried as a last ditch and curious if it helps others or if it is something else I did so trying to get feedback is all.

I love the Dev work and this ROM it is top notch!

If Swype disappears on you, but still shows selected in settings, you don't have to uninstall it, just open the Swype installer and select it again
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RealPariah:
I can also verify Swype beta installer fully works out of the box with this ROM, you have to run it login and follow directions to install Swype though before it can be used as input on phone now.

And input selection now appears in notification tray WHEN KEYBOARD IS BEING DISPLAYED ON SCREEN. Or in settings input select default input and set to Swype there after placing check in box next to Swype in list (if you don't authorize it first by tapping it so check is there it won't appear in input selection menu)

I have been using this rom for more than 5 days now, no reboot no nothing, everything is working fine for me. I don't know why you guys are complaining. You have done something wrong and please read the OP page and follow exactly what it said, don't install mods that TDJ didn't approved. PERIOD.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] rfail1988:
Did you do a darkside cache wipe and permission fix? If not do that and report back. That should probably fix it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] gatorstew:
And just to clarify since this is a little different than what most might be used to... The Darkside contains the permission fix within the zip when you flash it. Do not fix permissions via recovery.

TDJ I just wanted to let you know that as much of a noob I am and I can ask some questions here and there, I have had no problems at all with this rom. None what so ever.. Thanks for an awesome job on this rom. I followed directions to the T and did some things like you suggested and yes I reflash again at one time and it's been smooth. Thanks dude!

Another bug I forgot to mention. When in browser, I select a story or topic, my phone decides to open the next topic below. I've noticed this on a few sites not just one. Its happened on mobile and full web based sites.

Its happened on ANDROIDCENTRAL, ENGADGET, PHANDROID, CNN, NFL, just to name a few.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RealPariah:
Actually in my testing darkside cache wipe as well as my fix perm v2 flash fix both work to fix perms just fine and I have used both many times myself. Want sure if you meant darkside cache error or the ROM zip though, my bad if I misread you.

It happens on all the roms I've tested, it happens for me after i use a battery saving app basically it's happening when it switches from data to wifi icons, to fix it (momentarily) you can turn the screen off and on quickly. But obviously it's not the solution.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RealPariah:
Interesting, I have only had the issue where it works, but full signal was 4 of the 5 bars, but that was before re base to TMobile leak. After rebase it has shown correctly in notifications on my device.

May need to be sure you follow install steps to the letter to be sure you wipe everything correctly (newest darkside ROM zip seems to do this on install now, but try this after ROM first installed restart let settle for 10 min after lock screen appears on initial boot restart in to recovery and flash darkside cache wipe and restart again. Also after that I usually install the Blaze 4g radio (ICS version), but stock ROM radio gives signal bars for me as well just better performance for me on blaze radio.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] darkside79:
Love this ROM but a fix for the lag and FC messages and app non responding need to drop. plus the data service is getting worse. Drops off and have to reset it but sometimes that still don't work. The same issues others are reporting. I hope the OTA ICS update drops in the next few days like the leaked doc says.then maybe all these issues will finally be fixed. And everyone including myself will be happy. I can only dream.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RealPariah:
Um, I use this as daily driver with no problems, don't use stock messaging though I use Handcent with no problems and supercharger nitro lag fix helped with scrolling and screen movement lags (FOR ME). Data was slightly less than before, but fixed that by trying other ICS radios and found blaze 4g radio (modified for t989 look in Dev thread for ICS radios thread) fixed performance (again for me)

Now this is a daily driver better than GB ROMs (again for me I can only speak to my experiences).

I bet if you read through thread you find fixes that will greatly help you already posted. :)

Only problem I'm having is the battery I flashed a different modem blaze to be exact cause the modem that I did have wasn't picking up good speeds but now I'm flying with this blaze modem but it's sucking the life out of my battery what other modems can we flash on this ROM ?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] gatorstew:
VK1 and KID
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rod3:
Unfortunately, that is a result of the stock software for our phones. The color change for Google connectivity was introduced with GB, but our Stock ROM didn't have this feature and TDJ's Digital Warfare was based on stock. There was a zip you could flash from the themes and apps section which would bring it back.

Much like stock GB, TMO stock ICS doesn't appear to have the color change for Google connectivity embedded either as it isn't included in Digital Evolution. Expect that to change once the OTA and source is out.

I switched back to Darkside 2.7 and you know, i really miss Apex Launcher. I'm using Go Launcher v3.0 (which is nice) but i really liked the Apex but they dont make it for anything but ICS 4 currently.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] BrianLangley:
This rom is great so far, I get random freezes sometimes, but that's to be expected.

The only problem I've had in the day or so of using it is that changing the DPI doesn't work. I've tried a few different apps, my usual app 'LCD Resolution (Root)' didn't do much except for making the keyboard extend way off the screen. I'm trying to get a 160 DPI. So I tried a different app supposedly made for ICS, I don't remember what it was called, but it caused my phone to not boot at all.

Anyone have any suggestions? I know I'm kind of a noob here, but I did try looking through a lot of this thread.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RealPariah:
Um, just removes apex launcher from/data/apps the other day after installing 2b2 /data/apps/com.anddoes.launcher.apk (maybe -1.apk on the end of file name, but think I double copied it at some point causing that to be added later)

That's apex and evolution 2b2 is 4.0.3 when I last checked...

What up buddy?

I'm not having those issues, there's occasionally a slight moment for something to open but nothing major. I DID get a lot of lag and garbage last night, I had programs open and that it seems they were causing problems. Reboot, ran Darkside cache, all is good today.

I say try do the clean wipe a few times and reinstall, might try the kernel cleaner too. Otherwise, I'm looking forward to the official as well.

This rom supports other bootanimation correct? Atleast that's what I thought it said in the op. I'm trying to get the bootanimation from blackedition with the Google gears over to this rom but it will not let me replace the file. I used astro, es file manager and root browser to copy the file over to the system/framework/media but it just doesn't replace it. Anyone got any suggestions?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Android Revolution:
Please don't discredit others having issues, simply because you are not experiencing them. Yes, many issues stem from not following the OP, or using apps that may not be fully ICS compatible yet. However, the fact that multiple users are experiencing some of the same issues may be an indication that there is indeed, a problem. Remember, this is based on a leak. A test version. There will be bugs, and not all users will experience them all. This is not a negative about TDJ's work, it is simply fact. TDJ has done a great job with what we have been given, an unpolished, unfinished, leak.

For example, I followed OP to the letter, but had to switch to another ROM after a few days due to random FC's. I attribute this to the leak used as a base, not TDJ's work. I'm watching this, and will happily switch back when the time is right.

FYI, I've been flashing/rooting/modding since before Android, and my background is programming. I don't yet dev for Android, simply due to time constraints and other priorities.

Again, TDJ has done a great job with this leak, but all issues are not just because the OP was not followed.

Flame away.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Teo032:
Yeah i agree with some people here. It's great that very few of you have a perfect ROM, but many of us have small issue with some apps going wonky including tdj himself. So don't be a douche when people bring to light some errors that others are able to replicate.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] rfail1988:
Indeed sir. My bad for that...

It seems pretty clear that ICS roms ARE stable and reliable. The difference between gb and ics rooms seems to be that if you don't follow directions carefully, your ics rom will be much more buggy than your custom gb rom. These are two different OSes and the sooner people realize that, the better. Most issues found are from user error, not the rom and its mostly from not following the directions. This isn't the Android where you can just wipe data, wipe cache wipe dalvik and flash the rom. You have a couple steps extra that you need to take - specifically darkside super wipe and dark side cache wipe. If you don't follow the directions, nobody can help you properly and you are reporting a false bug. And frankly, I'm getting sick of people complaining about issues that are ultimately their fault for being lackadaisical.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NogaroS4:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] dnsmo:
My point is all I do is only the staff that said on the OP page and I don't install stupid staff into the rom just because I know it's a leak, I want to use it as Daily Drive, on beta1 I experience lots of FC and i need to reboot alot during the day, but with beta2 none of that happen so I think TDJ works alot on fixing the matter. I am not trying to flame anyone but just telling you what I did. if you find this offensives then just ignore me.
