I have been running v1 for just over 24hours and I have absolutely no complaints. No lag (using Apex launcher), no FCs, and GPS is an instant lock using the LE1 radio and AGPS patch. I am excited to try out v2 now that I have become officially addicted to flashing, lol. Thanks again TDJ!

Raving about original release and of course you just go ahead and release something better.....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jangst123:
Not bad at all! Bet day 3 is even better. This is with 2 accounts syncing everything.

Don't know what the 2 little bumps up are but it has not been on a charger or USB,, must be a correction of some sort.

Biggest drop was when I was outside cutting grass and listening to Pandora

Which Radio should i use with venom LE1 or LE4.....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] thederekjay:
If you use wifi calling.. then LE1 or LC8, links in post #2
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jammy_22:
Thanks but i do not use Wifi calling. so which radio would be the best...Also i currently have recovery 5.0.2.7 but how do i know if it is a wipe or not?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Djapatos:
Is the recovery recommended have that hard brick bug? Meaning will I brick if wiping
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Towle:
Just follow the instructions in the OP, and you'll be fine. As for the radio, whichever one gives you better signal, use it. I am getting good results with LE1.

@TDJ do you have A battery percent mod? I'm aware there is one built into the rom however that takes up too much space in the top bar. I am looking for one to replace the battery icon like in previous roms

That's pretty strange considering this is based off of tmobile rom.

I am guessing no. I have asked about this six times in this thread and I never get a response. I have also stated I realize there's one built into the rom; however much like you. I would prefer to replace the current battery icon. Like we did in previous roms

never made it back in. you can find the package in the latest gapps on goo.im

Also I added WIDGET HOTFIX to the op to fix the widgets I overlooked.. just flash in recovery..

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Gamesoul Master:
There's no mod, but there's an option right in the settings for showing battery percentage. If you want, me or somebody can give you the exact directions to walk you through the settings menu... lol.

TDJ, you are seriously a beast. I honestly didn't expect to come on here and see another release so soon, but I (and many others) appreciate it very much. I'm gonna flash it as soon as it finishes downloading. Hopefully bug reports are useful to you between the various people asking for things that you've already addressed a hundred times.

Thank you very much for this alpha release. I know alpha releases can always be a pain, but I get the feeling this will be more like a beta than an alpha. Thanks again :)

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] defconoi:
No wipe updates would be nice but rom toolbox or having Google restore apps is faster
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mightyab:
You should try ROM toolbox. They have a interface changer and you can change battery percent yourself. I'm sure TDJ is trying to get this ROM as stable as possible before tinkering with the little stuff.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] thederekjay:
Personally I can add a battery mod. But have yet to find one that is close to the stock battery. In the end, I will probably shift over the battery percent so it overlaps the battery icon. I have it half way done but the way the framework is setup, it becomes difficult and time consuming. But I will get it done when I get the time..

First of all, thanks for all your hard work!

I got v1 installed yesterday and working very nicely. Just saw your update and tried to flash. In CWM I received this error when trying to install after doing a full wipe. Tried to re-download the rom and same error. Might be something wrong with the file. Here's the error I received:

E:Can't open /sdcard/DARKSIDE.EVOLUTION.3_v2_TDJ.zip (bad)

Aborting installation.

As TDJ said or bad/going bad sdcard, try formating the sdcard using sd formater.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ThC23:
Ok, if you would of read some of the previous post you would of found out that he's planning on adding it on future releases.

Please take the time to read, it gets annoying seeing the same request over and over again.

If you go to settings you can add a percentage to tell you exactly what you got. It works just the same as a mod.

And so no, there are no battery mods at the moment because technically there's no need for one.

It's a personal preference.

I tried to make a battery percent in UOT kitchen; however, for some reason when I upload the files from this rom It always gives me an error after compiling the files.

If anyone could shed any light on this subject I would be very grateful.

I can not use UOT kitchen to edit any of the files from this rom. Does anyone know why? Or know a work around so I can. It seems to only be with this rom.

Please the the way the framework is compile over something?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] IRIE4IPIER:
Not be rude or anything, but this is what you should do before posting flashing issues.Usually when I see this error, it's more times than not probably just a bad download. Or put the file on the internal sdcard or vise versa.

Go to settings..date and time.....uncheck automatic use network....set time zone manually..then recheck automatic time use network.

I never had this problem. But in most cases cycling your settings will fix the problem. Also don't forget to use TDJs cache wipe.

Try not to post glitches until you try resetting your settings and using cache wipe. And read the first post!

No it's not. The icons get highlighted but never open. Any app in memory can be opened but anything not open will not start no matter how you try. The only fix is a reboot. It's really bad if the app you're trying to run is critical, like the phone app!

I was testing various radios. WiFi calling works for me with T989DTLE4 (Tellus Radio) and here in Las Vegas area I get the best data speeds. This is using V1. About to download Venom. I was testing out various servers while sitting in my Vets office for upcoming cataract surgery for one of my dogs. Just decided to play around with various servers offered up on speedtest.net.

Edit: Yes I know that themeing is NOT recommended. But I did try out ZUniversal_Touch0Color3.zip which seems to not be causing me any immediate concerns. I normally ONLY run a theme when it's specifically OKed by OP :)

Plus playing around with different Fonts too

WIFI Calling

Weird thing. This works from my home, and many restaurants I go to. My office wifi does not work well with it. Office wifi is a hidden network that requires user name and password to access. I do log in with both, and have connectivity. Wifi calling icon illuminates, but when I try to use it, I do not hear it dialing, and cannot hear the other end if they do pick up. I see it does dial out because I called my private line at it rings, but I cannot hear it ringing in my ear.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jwcurry83:
Sounds like a radio issue...try a reboot and if that doesn't fix it then I would re-flash the radio you are using again and then do a darkside cache wipe. I had the same issue on beta 7 of the att release and that solved my issues.
