Hey, is WiFi working? My phone doesn't seem to be able to detect any wifi signals. Previously I was on Darkside Beta 2 and it could detect several hotspots.

Edit : Wiped Dalvik Cache and did Fix Permissions , seems to be working now o.O
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RushAOZ:
It will help. But I doubt it will be stellar. Especially if you flashed with 100% battery life. I always flash with a full battery then drain it to all hell. Recharge fully at 5 percent. Usually after the first cycle battery life is as good as its gonna get for me. Just from my experience with this phone and every other handset I've owned.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mjg688:
Not quite what I am looking for, I know how to edit the number of screens/pages. What we are trying to change is the physical page number that you are taken to when pressing the home key on the phone. It is set at page 3 by default which I guess isn't a big deal but for those of us with OCD it is annoying to have your home screen set as your last page rather than the 1st or 2nd. No big deal if this is the worst bug I have to deal with using ICS I will be content.:D

Go to wifi settings and press your menu hardware button. Click on advanced... Then deselect and re-select Network Notification (cycle it).

It worked for me.

PS Hey guys if anyone is having issues, reboot into recovery and flash TDJ's cache wipe.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Gamesoul Master:
Actually, the instructions he gave you addressed exactly what you were asking for, which is setting default screen. He didn't say anything about the number of pages.

Problem is, the instructions are no good anyway. The file he mentioned (default.prop) isn't in the system folder, it's in the root directory. And not only does adding that line do nothing, but it gets lost upon reboot.

Honestly though, I'm not sure what the problem is. I switched back to the default launcher to try it, and I couldn't get it to go to any screen besides the last one I was on. I even went to the first screen, FC'ed the launcher, rebooted the phone, and hit the home button to choose that launcher again, and it landed me on the first screen instead of the middle screen like it's "supposed to".

Makes me glad I use the Nova Launcher. Been using it since the Sensation first started seeing ICS ROMs, and pairing it with a rock solid ROM like this is awesome.

Sometimes its easier and faster to ask somebody, search doesnt help sometimes, you still have to read those 15+ pages and get no answers! Thats human nature if smth doesnt work you have to find out why right here, right now! =)

What I personally dont like are useless signatures, showing one's lifetime phones or ROM etc they use. The ones who have useful videos in signature get +100 from me!

any chance you will be doing a lil theme for this ROM?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Gamesoul Master:
I'm just using the stock one so far. Haven't had a chance to really get a feel for the battery life, since that takes some time. I suspect that if we truly discover the battery life isn't so good, TDJ will nearly have his new kernel released by that time... lol. The battery doesn't seem too bad though. Checked your battery stats so far?

But from what people have been saying, some seem to prefer the LC8 radio.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] frescoraja:
now that ics is official i will probably be making another translucent/themed notification pull down menu, as well as adding color to some of the icons.. oh and custom boot splash screens.. PM me with any ideas you have and would like to see in your rom. .

.. just compiled the kernel from source last night, changing some stuff like io scheduling and memory allocation to see what differences they make.. again just trying to learn.. but you might see a frescoraja kernel some day too.

jajajajaja

I know that setting is there bro but I am looking for a % mod download and install to replace the current battery icon. The built in percent takes up too much space in the top bar. I would prefer to just replace the current battery symbol with a percentage one. As I said before I tried uot kitchen and it gave me an error with the files compiled from this rom. I don't get why I was able to make 1 for the stock rom but not this one

Can anyone help me? Arch plane why using the system files from this rom in uot kitchen always causes an error? If you know of ur have a battery percent flushable mod it would be a great use to me

So holding home key doesn't bring up all your screens at once and a check mark, that you can drag which ever screen you want as default home? I uninstalled that launcher so I can't test on my end.

---------- Post added at 12:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:44 AM ----------

I did state I had no way to test what I posted. It was basically the same touchwiz issue on another phone and the fix for that was what I had basically copy pasted. I did also qualify that what I was posting could be total nonsense...just was offering insight. Never looked at build prop yet to see if that file even existed. And YES.....I am a firm believer in Nova launcher, which is easy as pie to set default home screen via holding hitting home key from default current home screen to bring up a check mark for dragging whatever screen you want to be default, as well as a + sign to add more screens if desired.

Edit: I just noticed I wrote default.prop......what about build.prop ???

I was living in Seattle till my gf dragged me to this ****ty place for her middle east studies. FML for following her.

The thing is my battery was not fully charged when I flashed this rom. But then I fully charged it. It got drained in 8 hours. Now my battery gets drained %3 in every20 mins. I have gone thru 2 full battery cycles. I will try the Telus rom till TDJ releases his custom kernel. Thank you for your help anyways.

All the screenshots are useless. I'd like everyone to charge their phone to 100%, unplug and plug back in till 100% again, make sure you have badass battery installed. Run it down to 10% and then take screenshots of the app sucker and other sections of badass battery. Some people might have a leak, some might have an app that is causing the issue. Baddass battery will show this.

This will tether with Wireless. Doing it now. :-)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] gatorstew:
That's what I'm doing currently using 'Badass'. Down to 35% right now... will post my results later. After the first 65% has been drained, it does appear that automatic brightness may be handled differently with the official Tmo base. Per Badasss app, 65% of my screen power is being used in 'Light' conditions. On previous ROMS, most of that percentage was showing up in 'Dark' and 'Dim' conditions. I've been running the ROM in the same environment - mainly in the office and indoors at home.

I know this has been asked before in TDJ's other threads but i tried some themed apps on this ROM and it was a no go so i restored my nandroid and now my system is no longer R/W and was wondering if there was something i could do?

Is reflashing my only option? I want to delete TW apps from system and cant.

Is there a teminal command i couild try?

Underclocking

I'm bored and decided to try and underclock the stock kernel...It actually works but its a little wonky...people with poor battery might want to try that...Also log out of GTalk if you don't use it...drains battery...Do we have a list of the bloat we can remove/freeze in ICS yet...

Automatic Date and Time / Time Zone Settings

I was wondering if anyone knows why and if possible how to prevent the T989 from switching these settings on automatically?

Once I use these settings my clock is off by -1hrs, and if I uncheck the boxes and set the time and time zone to what I want; once I restart the phone it automatically switches it back to those settings being check (Automatic Date and Time / Time Zone ) thus giving me the wrong time.

No worries, I wasn't bashing on you at all. It wasn't junk advice, just didn't work. I still don't understand their complaint though. There honestly doesn't seem to be a "default" screen. No matter what I try, hitting the Home button always takes me to the last screen I was on. Reboots, using various apps, switching launchers, letting it sit overnight... Nothing made it default to a different screen except clearing the data for the launcher.

Which isn't a big deal for me, because I currently only use one screen anyway. And no, holding down the Home button just pulls up thumbnails of the last apps used and a button to open the Task Manager... lol.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Splaktar:
Post another thread about how to do that?

---------- Post added at 11:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:22 AM ----------

BetterBatteryStats is the best. Search for a thread about it here on XDA or get it from the Play Store.

---------- Post added at 11:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:25 AM ----------

If you do what the other posts say with clearing cache/data of Play Store and that doesn't work. It might be the issue that I ran into. If you have 2 step authentication turned on for your account, you'll need to remove your Google account from the phone (Accounts and Sync) and then re-add it with a new Application Specific Password generated from your Google Security settings webpage.

If you don't do this for each new ICS ROM, they seem to constantly FC the Play Store even if you don't use it. It also lags up the phone big time.

If your account is re-setup fine with a new application specific password and the Play Store still FCs, then I've had to just restore my Play Store backup from the beta03 build and that fixed it.

I just flashed this ROM and I can confirm that if instructions are followed you will have no issues. I suspect many do not wait the full 10 minutes after the ROM flash and the initial reboot.

I did have to clear data and restart my gmail and Play Store, Gmail did not sync properly the first time, this is working perfectly now though. Play store was not updating or installing apps, seemed to be stuck, once data clear and restarted it is working perfectly. Tested the phone, no echo what-so-ever.

Went with the radio that tdizzle404 recommended, that went smoothly as well.

This is my first time using ICS, is the Apex launcher a must have? I have never used it.

Overall, my first venture in ICS and I am blown away by what you have done with this ROM and I would like to thank thederekjay for his efforts and I hope your patience with some of these ungrateful dummies doesn't wear thin. I try to read the last 10-20 pages of comments before flashing ROMs so that I have a heads up on issues rather than flashing and then screaming in the forum for help.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] thederekjay:
i am not much of a gamer... but 1 of 2 things, or combo of both.. 1 is that some games havent been "up-fitted" for ICS. 2 is I have restricted the max frequecy to not run above 1.35ghz. Samsung has locked down the max freq at 1.5ghz. No app or script can change it. No settings will stick it will always revert back to 1.5ghz. I have enabled a "power-save bias" at 1/10 of the max, which is roughly 150mhz off the top = 1.35ghz.. so in turn will not run above 1.35 (you can confirm with "cpu spy" if you dont believe me :D only time it runs at 1.5 is the 30 or seconds during boot) Get all of that??? anyways i did to help offset battery drain..

ROM is still running awesome, but noticed something today that is really not a biggie with the amazing battery life. every time I reboot my phone my battery stats reset. When I woke up this morning, my phone had only dropped like 4% over the 10 hours I was asleep. I thought the battery may have been stuck so I rebooted phone and it reset my battery stats to only being on battery for the 40 seconds it took my phone to reboot and recheck battery stats. Had to reboot my phone a few minutes ago and it did it again.

Grand total of time on battery though is going on 16 hours and I just flashed the ROM yesterday morning. Can't wait to see battery life after the ROM had more time to settle in and on the new release forthcoming.
