Yeah, I was looking into that as well. Blinking is only in the pro version.

I also tested the 616 build with the UVLE1 radio and I'm also still getting the underwater effect. It also goes away for me with the speaker phone on or with a headset.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] droid75:
None of my music apps see my music files on my external SD card. Neither can the sound system (for ringtones). The files are there, I can browse to them when I go into mnt/sdcard. I believe it's because of how the SD card is configured on this rom. Is there a fix for this? Please let me know as this is highly frustrating.

Thank you.

AOKP 6/15

Also gallery only showing a handful of pictures, but all pictures show up in Quickpic. I wish they would just leave the external SD folder structure same as stock and every other rom out there. I don't understand why they have to be different.

Just tested call quality and it's horrendous. Low volume and underwater. Back to Darkside.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] SevenSe7enSeven:
I havent tried any of the newer builds of cm9 or AOKP but as far as the call issue it only applied when i made calls like normal. but when i used groove ip to make my calls there was no call echo or underwater voice. has anybody noticed this also?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] suaverc118:
What is groove ip?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mixedguy:
SD card files/pictures are just slow to load up on the T989 AOKP.. It takes quite a while but they eventually show up.. They always load up within 30 minutes to a hour for me.. I tested call quality and it sounds good on both ends for me so I cant comment on your call quality issues..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] SevenSe7enSeven:
It allows you to make phone calls using data or wifi with a Google voice number
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bigtom624:
I tested call quality with my case on and off, and it is horrible either way. My voice sounds very muffled when I am talking on my phone with the earpiece to my ear. However, when I talk directly into the mic by holding the phone up to my mouth it is much louder and clearer. So far the only build that has not had this problem for me is the 06/07-02 build. Everything else on the 06/15 build works great.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] rrrrrichard:
Still underwater.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tdizzle404:
Can this problem even be fixed? I thought with source it would help but hasn't seen to do anything for the issue
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] dcpetterson:
Still recorded video playback issue in gallery. Talking sounds a little fuzzy, but totally manageable. No screen lock ups yet. Pinch to zoom is perfect. Still has the bug where after a voice search the audio comes from front speaker, need to make a phone call and put on loud speaker to fix. BLN works great so far. Will report on batt life and other stuff as needed.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] byt3b0mb:
what radio are you using?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] suaverc118:
I'll report water mic, but the moment I put it on speaker it is crystal clear. Whitehawkx does that help and doesn't give you any ideas? What about on your end? How is your audio going?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] showbo:
Yeah, that did not happen for me. Its been 9 hours and still nothing. Crazy stuff.

So when I browse using ES File Explorer, nothing is there, nothing at all!!!!!! But when I look at the Storage function under settings, it shows 2GB of photos/videos, so I checked the gallery, all my photos and videos are there. The only thing bad is, I can't get back to my backups and restore my apps because I can't browse the internal SD Card.

Also, +1 on the not able to connect to a hidden SSID. I hide mine because it makes me feel cool! :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jordanishere:
Calls are def a bit muffled but this rom is still useable. Thanks for the tip.

Hope the call quality can be improved. Im also getting choppy music playback with google play music, and a fc from aosp weather when i try to view the graph.

Other than that this rom is awesome. I was hoping.to avoid bloatwiz flavored ics, and it looks like i can.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] JPOKeefe:
still have a bit of underwater too not that bad tho no one has complained yet and another problem is is that the touch light keys randomly turn on sometimes when the screen is off
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] armyveterangunner29:
I have one question. To compare notes, has anyone manually put in a wifi address successfully? FCs every time upon hitting OK after entering our end.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DarthxTyler:
It works perfectly fine for me. I don't know if it'll help, but try a permission fix. It seems like 99% of forceclose issues can be fixed by doing a permission fix (or at least from my experiences).

Underwater calls dissapear when using the speaker phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] snguyen0730:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mainevent3405:
Pure Goodness....

Wow! reading back over the past few pages I guess I should consider myself lucky. I have none, ZERO of the issues that are being reported here. ALL pics show up in the gallery using the actually gallery app and shows up immediately (as well as quickpic), Music is all there with no issues being found by three different music players I use including google. Call quality is true call quality without any underwater, vibrating, wavy, robotic or any other abnormal sound on BOTH ends. Honestly, I have ZERO problems with this release. BLN is working great and the world is all good to ME! :D

Thanks Hawxz for a phenomenal release! Coming from a pure google phone (Nexus S), this is the FIRST real ICS experience I've had since purchasing this phone.

Until there's a fix... just cover the top mic with tape til it gets fixed. His new build is good enough as a daily driver.

Those experiencing FC or what not.. most likely restored their GB data inside their apks. I recommended just restoring APK only.. no data.. no system settings.

Before doing the wipe and stuff Titanium Backup has a feature to create and update zip in settings... I highly recommended using it.

Two days and little to no issues besides known bugs.

The ROM control feature alone you can spend a whole day tweaking and playing around with. Lots of customization .

i'm having a strange problem with ringtones. i have some mp3s in a folder on my internal sd that i use for ringtones and i've never had a problem using them on any other rom or phone. but this rom, they weren't showing up, so i thought maybe it was a mounting problem, so i copied the folder to the external sd. then both copies showed up in the list, and i selected one. but when i reboot they aren't in the list and the ringtone goes to some default.

anyone else experience this?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mysticfrog:
So you still have issues even with the head phones? Damn dude.. I can't get Google music to work for some reason.. I tried twist but the volume was all screwy. Gonna flash his newest build tonight..

I've been having this reoccurring issue where the system UI just stops working. Its a real pain in the ass b/c whenever I get a call or text my lockscreen freezes up and I have to do a battery pull. This has been an issue since build 35. I did a full wipe and clean installed build 36. Its mentioned in the original rootzwiki thread but no one really seems to be bothered by this
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mysticfrog:
Is it 36.3 build?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mysticfrog:
Do a darkside super wipe kernel cleanser reboot then go back into recovery and fix permissions.. Outside that i hope it helps

aokp

I have yet to flash this rom seeing that alot of users are still having audio issues

I would like to make a suggestion

For anyone that is not having any issues could you please report what

1.recovery

2.flash order

3.Radio

you are doing.

This thread is getting filled with too many

"No issues here"

"What are you using"

stuff like that lets help each other out and anyone with no audio issues let us all know please

We all want some AOKP LOVE ON OUR PHONES

THANKS TO ALL IN ADVANCE
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] JPOKeefe:
I never use cache wipe or super wipe so I personally wouldn't know but its unlikely considering the fact that like 90% of people including me have the problem
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] puff8stuff:
LDE Radio

Latest non-touch CWM

Darkside Wipe coming from TW ICS

Flashed AOKP 6/15

Flashed 4/29

reboot

waited a little, then re-downloaded all my apps from market

reboot into recovery and did a DS Cache wipe

I sound muffled a little but fine when using speaker phone
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] JPOKeefe:
I still have a little bit of under water sounding not bad though no one complains

1. Cwm touch

2. I just flash the newest build over my old one no wiping then i flash gapps and reboot.

3. UVLE1 (the newest one.)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] puff8stuff:
yea thats exactly i was looking for was someone who has the problem but has also never ran those scripts. thank you
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Troyis:
Seems that the audio issues are on both this ROM and CM9, which share Kernel source and AOSP obviously. I have a feeling when one figures it out, both will be fixed. :p

Anywho. My flash order on non-touch...

1. Flash radio

2. Superwipe

3. Factory reset

4. Flash rom

5. Flash gapps

6. Darkside Cache Wipe

7. Reboot and sit

8. Reboot again

I get call issues. Not always, but it probably depends on how I hold my phone, which makes me think that it is a mic issue. Perhaps they are reversed or both engaged during voice calls using the handset? I say this, because some people have reported that people in the same room as them can be heard clearer than their own voice during a call.

Other than that, ROM doesn't have too many bugs. I have had a few FC's using various apps that put me into a neverending bootloop until power cycling with the power button. Gallery sometimes is funky and will only scan two folders, but it fixes itself generally speaking.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] snguyen0730:
Yeah seems like when I hold the bottom Mic next to my mouth, it sounds clear but when I hold it to my face, it start to become wavy and muffled
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] suaverc118:
Nope because I haven't used it yet.

Superwipe

Rom

Gapps

Reboot and sit for 10

Reboot and set up
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] suaverc118:
When I talk on speakerphone leaving myself a VM, it was clear as day. When I talk normal it is not good. Bad positioning of my mouth to the mic or something. I'll have to check music again because for a moment it did sound different but wasn't sure.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DarthxTyler:
I've had issues with the muffled call audio while holding the mic away from my face since I first got this phone and I just sort of figured that was normal.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] SlakWReX:
Or just call this number. It let's you record yourself and other things to test calk audio
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] FSUSeminole:
Regarding the muffled/underwater call issue

Doesn't our phone essentially have two mics? one at the bottom for picking up voice and the other is on the top near the headphone jack that helps with noise cancellation? Could they be reversed in the CM9/AOSP/AOKP builds? Just throwing out a guess here...

maybe the top (noise cancellation) mic isn't used when on speakerphone?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tdizzle404:
Hey guys!

As of the low call volume or underwater sound whatever you want to call it,I have tested the new build with non touch CWM and twrp with all tmobile and telus ICS radios nothing makes it better. Maybe a little"little" bit louder but does not make voice any clearer. I feel this is 100% software related to roms built from source.

I just wanted to put that out their cause alot of people are going the wrong route on trying to fix this issue.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] vicvon:
Only problem I am having is sound coming through the earpiece instead of the speaker when text to speech is speaking. Anyone have a permanent fix? Very fast rom. I have not tried call quality yet, so cannot comment.

Also the Ivona text to speach engine does not seem to work at all.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] snguyen0730:
No perm fix yet as far as I know. Only fix right now is calling your voicemail and turn on speaker and hang up right away.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ThC23:
This was directed to the people who ARE NOT having issues.

Not sure why everyone else with issues are posting how they flashed.

We don't need to know how you flashed and still having issues.

So there's a call audio issue and camera issue.

Been stated several times, now can we please stop posting the same stuff over and over again.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] kevinbear:
One last question for those with call quality issue. try turning the phone around and speaking to the back of it. Is the sound quality improved? This would pretty much confirm that the speaker phone mic is active instead of the normal mic.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] kCelsius:
Not sure if this pertains to us but I thought I'd post it anyways.

Also not sure why but when I tried attaching this via XDA app there was some sort of error. Any ideas?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Arh1tekt:
I think your onto something. I have noticed my assistant apps switching from back speaker to button mic when responding.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] not_su:
FWIW I gave this a try, but same result - FC when trying to save...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] suaverc118:
I believe that is why talking on speakerphone makes everything clear. Hopefully whitehawkx has it figured out per his tweet posted earlier.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] pio_masaki:
Not the back, the top. The speaker phone uses the top mic, speaking to the back would be speaking into the speaker. But your point is valid just a little off on orientation lol. This is all stuff I've mentioned and talked about since the water mic issue came up last week of may. The bottom mic in normal phone mode and orientation is using the wrong mic, that's why we get muffled but people around/behind us are fine. Works on speaker phone because the correct mic is used. It showed up right when they fixed call echo which was the top noise mic picking up the ear piece and bouncing it back. Fixed that but we lost normal mic in the process.

This is all mentioned before and just what I've noticed since mid may.

Tapatalked from my Galaxy S II.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jordanishere:
Just answer the text and then they go away :)

I agree that the rom is very good. For an AOSP rom to come out so soon, its incredible that it runs so well.

Have you tried pandora? I cant get it to play without static. Some of my songs (From the sd card) play correctly, and others dont (some .aac's).

Minor bugs - Sick rom.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jasontx:
Just tested audio using four different methods.

1) Normal operation into mic sounded bad, under water.

2) Speaker phone, audio is fine and sounds good.

3) Spoken into top mic, speaker phone mic, under water.

4) Cover top mic and speak into normal mic, good quality.

Looks like I'm going to tape over that top mix for the time being. I know we'll have a fix soon for the audio routing.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] dieuthao01:
Just flashed the latest update of the rom, 615. I was nervous about the under water sounds, but I took a chance anyways. First time flashing, I flashed one Mr. X's T-mobile radio, phone didn't even boot up, didn't even make it to AOKP's unicorn logo. Second time flashing, I went back to one of those Telus radio that I had in my SD card (It worked with previous updates). That didn't work also. Third time flashing, I only flashed the rom & GAPPS zips. Phone "magically" booted up. NO UNDER WATER SOUND FOR ME!!! I guess i'm just one of the lucky ones, or you guys should try it without any radio. Yes I was so excited to report that I have no underwater sound =]

As far as wiping procedures, I just used the basic: wipe data, cache, davik cache, then TDJ Super Wipe.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] snguyen0730:
doesn't matter if you don't flash radio, whatever radio you flashed before sticks. When you are testing your call quality, are you holding it normally to your face or are you talking directly to the mic?

Have you flashed one of whitehawkx or cyanogenmod roms before? I've never had this issue when I was on TDJ roms but the moment I did one of these 2 is when it would happen. So I want to know from people who have had the water mic issues who don't have them before, to step up. Also the water mic sound is usually on the caller on the other end, not your phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jordanishere:
What does it say in Settings > About Phone > Baseband version?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] dieuthao01:
No, I never flashed CM9. Seems a litle too buggy for me. I had pretty bad call quality sounds in some previous updates, I had to scream in order for people to hear me. But it gets better with every update, and it was manageable on 609. So I stick to that one until now. Yes, based on reading the threats, I think I kind of know which sounds everyone is talking about here. I called my boyfriend and my mother to confirm whether they can hear me or not; and they said it's the best they've heard in the last two weeks. I guess this one is a "keeper" for me. =]

LOL I hold it normally like a normal person hold it to talk on the phone.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] pb05life:
