A Note on the NFC issue. When i first posted about this stating that on my Beta 4 That i did not have the NFC and on Beta 2 i did have NFC. After i have reflashed the Beta 4 and booted up. I immediately went to the settings to see if the NFC option is there. And behold it was there. Once the google started restoring my apps from the auto backup within the rom. I went back to the settings after it had completed the restore of apps and than the NFC option has disappeared again. So something that has to do while the restore process was going on that it completely disabled and vanished the NFC option.

I thus redid a flash again of Beta 4 and immediately went to the settings after boot up and disabled the auto backup feature and the NFC option is still there. Not that I really care for it. So i reeabled the auto backup and restore feature and thus the google servers started restoring my apps again and NFC disappeared. So either something with the restore process is making the NFC disappear or its one of the apps that it was restoring is making it disappear.

Anyone else try this?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] usernotfound:
I don't doubt that the MD5's you saw matched, but there are many more variables at play here (wipe,flash,restore, etc). Others have been able able to reproduce the "no nfc" error with a much more probable cause.

If anyone's interested in what it would take for someone to be maliciously doing this, here's a really good example of how to exploit MD5 collisions when comparing two binary programs written in C. It should serve as a good example of what would have to happen to a ROM between TDJ generating a sum, and someone flashing a file that has been modified AND has a matching MD5 sum: http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/11643/Exploiting-MD5-collisions-in-C I suppose this neglects the possibility that Android could be neglected malformed code related to NFC, and not just failing entirely. But, from my understanding, I believe TDJ would be the culprit if an intentional MD5 collision existed...

Hm found an odd bug. Gives you lost connectivity, turn on roaming while on wifi.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ScreamingSkulls:
My friend, that has been discussed for the last 3 pages. Flash the radio listed in the op post and then ROM. The radio was edited and has fixed the data lose issue.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Digital1325:
TDJ, I don't know what you did to the ROM... but I'm kind of blown away. For the longest time, I've only been able to get decent battery life from the Stock Telus ROM... tried pretty much everything possible. Last few days I resorted to turning 4G off and going to 2G speeds to get decent battery life while on ICS. Left 4G on when I flashed Beta 4... and these are my results so far from the past day:

All I did was flash the ROM (and stock ASOP skin), and then adjust the brightness from auto to about 20% (saw someone mention that tip earlier in the thread). Crossing my fingers that this kind of battery life lasts for me and that this wasn't some sort of fluke (I really have had bad luck in terms of battery life). Also, I've been in an area that has TERRIBLE signal strength on top of it (~90dBm), hence why I'd normally switch to EDGE speeds.

This guy doesn't mess around! Think I owe you a beer man.

If you use Titanium Backup, look to see if you have Nfc service 4.4.4-UCLE2. On my setup and I also use Bluetooth, there is a BT icon used for this specific service. I also have NFC Test1.0 and Nfc service 2.3.7

You should also have NFC.apk when browsing thru your system/apps folder. Those are the first places I would be looking.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] PorchSong:
I can concur. But, I found that if you do a fresh flash and you choose "Not Now" on entering in your google account info, then NFC does not show up. If you do enter in your gmail account during setup, then NFC appears. I tried this several times (entering and not entering) and NFC would be there or disappear accordingly. Furthermore, if you do an advanced Nandroid "data" restore, NFC goes away as well.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Docmjldds:
I don't think so. I NEVER have formatted my Internal card. And I will install ROMs or apps from BOTH. Just depends on where I decide to place a downloaded file. I never had any issues running a ROM install from either the internal card, or from my external 32gb micro SD card.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] thederekjay:
OP Updated! All real bugs squashed! This the first stable fully funtional bug free TW ICS :D

GPS fixed for once and all.. Use one of the provided radios in the RADIO section. I have removed the RIL's so me have no issues. I tested GPS on LB7, KID, VK1 and all working perfectly. I didnt test on the newest leaked radio UVLC8 because people where having some data roaming issue. I am sure it will work if youre on that radio, but please report back either way if youre using the UCLV8 radio... Enjoy!

Thank you sir. I've been on Blaze 4g and everything is great. Anyone know if battery life could be enhanced using one of the Tmo radios?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] eclipseblur954:
Anyone experiencing bad battery with the blaze radio? Moved from beta 3 to beta 4 and in an hour and a half lost 20% battery, with the screen off.

Which of the three radios would you recommend for daily driver / best battery?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] zoman7663:
I'm on Beta 4 with the Blaze Modem as well, only lost 4% in 1 hour 6 min. connected to 4g with screen off. I've tried all the modems thus far for this phone with a variety of GB and ICS ROMS and hasn't had a noticeable effect on my battery one way or the other. Could be the signal strength where I'm located though. Radio/Battery issues are very subjective.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] eclipseblur954:
Hmm might have been all my google services syncing up, but I'll reflash beta 5 and see if it improves

Fully charged my phone before going to bed, it's at 55% with 10hs, google services and cell standby being the top two battery hogs. I did the same thing with the old radio+beta 3 and only lost 6% across the entire night (about 10 hours)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] marcopolo1:
Thanks for another update.. I am running beta 4 and everything works great. Even GPS

Its necessary to flash 5?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Dmkjr:
I'm at 93% with everything on after 1hr off charger. Screen time has been 22 min so far. I guess that's not too bad. On Blaze 4g.

Note: I cannot comment on battery life in a sense to say its good/bad. Haven't been on beta 05 but for an hour.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] suaverc118:
Hey TDJ. I noticed on your latest screen shot that you had the AT&T wifi hotspot notification. Im on Beta4 (loving it) and dont hve it as an icon or anything. So i went ino Rom toolbox and tried to restore it and i thouht i did, but nothing icon wise shows up. Am i doing something wrong? Also, how different is having the ATT hotspot vs using regular tethoring that comes with the phone? Thanks man! Again i appreciate your work and your time.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Towle:
I'm still on beta 1 lol I just can't find any issues with it, so I can't get myself to flash the others.

Updated to beta05. Had to use Fasterfix and switch my GPS pool back to North America. Afterwards took about 5 min first lock and now locks every time with 10ft radius.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ThC23:
Yeah, it sucks that it's not available on this. I think tdj said on an earlier post that it wasn't even on the framework.

But no, it's not available on this rom.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] pipergca:
Settings FC

So I thought I would give this a try coming from Evolution 2. Maybe I need to give it more time to "settle" becuase my first impression is to restore my Evolution 2 back-up. This seems slower to me, I can't go into any settings without it force closing....even just the settings menu. Well I can go into it but as soon as I back out of it it force closes. I flashed cache wipe hoping it would correct it...it didn't. I redownloaded beta 5, wiped and flashed again. Same problem. My data and wifi connections are much worse with this ROM with the blaze radio...20 feet away from my router and it drops the 5ghz connection. And I keep getting the data roaming notification (tried everything in this forum to correct that).

I'm sure its just me as I haven't seen these problems reported by anyone else just thought maybe someone might have a little advice for me.

I was on Evolution 2 since it was released and loved it! No issues, never had a force close...ever. I ran it aver a week before I ever had to reboot it. So I thought I would give this a go.

Oh yeah and I hate the darn ATT 4G icon! LOL I know thats just me being anal though.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] malaeus:
any way of making no-wipe updates for those on beta04? or is it necessary to wipe every time on these ICS roms?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] quadrapole:
Can you comment on which radio I should use if I have a Telus t989?

Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] kiladubz:
I think whats going on is that you are wiping but then when you restore the old backup you are breaking the new ROM....dont do that, bacl up what you can via Rom Toolbox or Titanium and restore everything without data, then if absolutely necessary, pick and choose which apps need data and restore those. I've been running 05 for the last couple of hours and not one force close. i NEVER nand restore, i just see it as asking for trouble man.

---------- Post added at 01:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:45 PM ----------

Nah, i personally would rather wipe in case an issue comes up its easier to figure our rather than saying "i had beta3 flashed beta 5 on top now im getting this error and......." wipe, start from scratch everytime with a squeaky clean build.

i keep the "vibrate on SCREEN tap off" and under Vibrate Intensity, I have vibrate on screen tap all the way down, because i dont like that feature and all other vibrations work? So please explain a bit more clearly cause i am either misunderstanding or ur not explain correctly

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] frescoraja:
So i have been holding off on flashing this due to some of the issues I've been reading about, and the fact that i have had little success thus far with ics roms on this phone. Even with the latest beta 5, it still seems there are some problems, but please correct me if I'm wrong because I'd really like to make the move to ics once and for all..

So from what i understand the following are still problems:

1) unless you use the blaze radio, you will keep getting data roaming errors in the status bar and data connection drops

2) if you do use the blaze radio:

a)the compass in Google maps is reversed

b) more likely to experience battery drain and overheating

3) nfc options disappear from settings menu after restoring apps from Google

4) phone call logs are screwy, include message logs and can't easily be cleared (not too certain on this one)

5) speaker phone volume is very loud and hard to understand unless lowered

Those are what i understand to be still present in the ROM as of beta 5 but please tell me if I'm wrong i am not trying to bash it I'm just asking because i would like to use it myself unless some of the above problems remain...

Thanks

Frescoraja

SO far i've had no problems with Beta 5 (with Blaze Mod Radio) except a screwy bluetooth (which may be my device) but im gonna be honest man, all the issues we have only make for a better ROM in the long run, TDJ has been working his ass off on this, if your waiting for something to be 100% perfect i would wait on samsung to release an official ICS update. This is a extremely stable Beta build.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tester420:
I would have to agree with those statements. These builds are solid.

Not saying that people wouldn't have problems or glitches (benefit of doubt; minor hardware tolerance differences and other variables i.e. location, signal etc.) but 99.5% of issues probably could be attributed to failure to follow instructions properly; one by one.

Its not only with this rom, even on nexus s threads and others these type of questions do come up (and GOD knows I might have asked some in some early past), and its just taking time and following the instructions slowly and properly. Don't let the excitement or laziness get to you and skip stuff. Do it right the first time and have fun not frustration :)
