[THEME]STOCK-AOSP for ICS - UPDATED 5-24 *UCLE2 UNIVERSAL ZIPS ADDED!**
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Jeimygirl:
Yesterday on the second day of use, power cylce #2 i ended at 22 days. But the one thing that caught my eye as being strange was Google services "Google services framework & bookmark sync" had 2,375 wake locks. I had sync off the entire time with none of the sync options when it's on selected. No additional book marks on my browser. Last time I saw anything near this was the Facebook app a week ago on Juggernaut which I uninstalled and have not installed again.

I tried to search for a cause but I seem to just find to just clear cache or turn sync off. Uninstall Google apps etc. All which I already tried. Anyone know what a cause to this may be?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] suaverc118:
How did you get those numbers? Is it an app? Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] gear79:
Thanks.... both of u :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Jeimygirl:
Yes, badass battery.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] suaverc118:
Thanks. So how do you apply this info? Like once you see something happen that you don't like, what do you do? Because majority of my use was display, and calls and phone system.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Jeimygirl:
Well if you are using your phone often then the screen should be the highest. Calls would be high too if you are making calls often. Phone system breaks down to others. For instance I'm curious why Bookmark sync is waking my phone that often when I don't even have sync on. I was getting 6 hours of battery a couple weeks ago. After tuning off sync dimming the screen to 0% and minimal use I would get 7. I hen noticed Facebook app used a ton of power so I uninstalled it. It greatly improved my batteries by almost 3x. Great way to see if something is using your battery that you do now lltbknow of. Such as something running all night when you sleep that you didn't choose to run all night.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] suaverc118:
Ok. My applock app showed it waked 3449 times. Wow! Then apex was about 26% and android core apps was 24%... What do you do to handle things like this?? Btw I use apex. But if you have something that wakes your phone a lot and you need it, but do you FC it???
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bobbymokie:
No, not much you can go to control most apps, aside from sync settings and such. More to use as a monitoring tool, to see if apps are misbehaving, like the face book app. If it's not essential just remove it.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] LpSk8r:
I dont like to go overboard, but with the fact being ive owned, tested, and used alot of devices as well as roms. This probably is the best rom Ive ever tried. A true daily driver.

With that said i hate touchwiz and usually install apex, but this new touchwiz is great in my opinion. Stable, Reliable, and Simple. Finally Samsung Has Arrived

Call echo/ hollow sound?

Hi folks,

I am really enjoying this rom but apparently I am suffering from a hollow/ echo sound from both my handset and when using bluetooth (someone just told me today and I have been running this for a week!). They say it sounds like I am calling from a cave. I have made calls from different locations and it doesn't seem to matter where I am located. I read that it was a problem with BETA05.

I have used both the Blaze and the LDE radios (currently LDE).

Any suggestions? Will just re-flashing the radio solve it? I am really wanting to keep this ROM but it is pretty annoying from what the other end.

Thanks for the help,

CHBAD
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Jeimygirl:
Ditto. You could always try to uninstall and reinstall it. But as far as controlling the app itself as mentioned, nothing you can do.

As a SN: I can't seem to get over 5mbps down and .5mbps up. Is this normal? I tried all 4 radios not much change. Thanks!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Jeimygirl:
I've encountered the same issue with all radios. Curious to find this out as well.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Zarin1480:
Just a thought there...

Do you have Chrome running / installed?

Thanks for the battery app idea. Going to snoop at apps in my phone. LOL
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] thederekjay:
Agreed. I like the improvements made by Samsung. Samsung actually has made changes for most of the software on the SGS3. From what i hear on the street, Tmo is definitely carrying the US branded version with the dual core S4 and reports are that it no slouch compared to the quad core exnyos.. Cant wait to get my hands on that device!

you should see a toolbar pop up at the top or even bottom of the screen.

To be honest i dont use BT. I cant really comment on how well it compares to other version or different bases. Maybe someone who uses BT regularly can comment

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AJ7677:
Did we get a conformation that tethering will work on beta 6. I have been looking for the answer. It seems that either something is different in this ROM or T-mobile has figured out something different to block our access for using the HOT SPOT. Does anybody have a work around or solution, I get the webpage block from t-mobile every time. I see other people talking about this topic but I can not locate the solution.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jr_718:
Everyone is sooner or later thanks to chrome... If you want to use hotspot use it with internet explorer..or just use pdanet..or call them scare them that your leaving depending on how long you've been with them they might add it for free like someone said..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Jeimygirl:
Nope, opera or the stock web. I also use battery defender that shuts off data and wifi when I lock my screen (you can white list apps) I stopped using task killers too per all the negatives I've read about.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] incredible315:
So ive been looking and reading the post for a few days and it seems to be that beta6 is either a hit or miss on some devices. I am way out dated on this rom i am still running beta2. I see the rom has made a great amount of progress but i just want to know where it stands as of right now. I read the log about the improvements but only user experiences can point out the pros and cons. I have every intention on flashing beta6 i was just hoping someone can let me know how it has been on their device as i set my phone up for the flash
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] n0tr1x:
excellent rom.. mem management, cpu management is just aswome. im pushing this rom to its max. the more: push it the better it gets. this can only get better. if there were something to change, i would have to rhink real hard about it...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] daring_guy:
Firstly, let me thank TDJ and all the devs here who are always ready to help. I have been using the various ROMS that TDJ has been churning out for the T989 and just love each one of them. Great job TDJ... keep up the awesome work!

Since the time I have been trying to upgrade to ICS (which I understand is still in Beta), the only problem that I encounter is that I cannot download / upgrade any app from Google Play. I keep getting an error that states "Unfortunately, the process com.google.process.gapps has stopped." and Google Play force closes. I have Wiped multiple times, Cleared Cache, Super Wiped, Cleared data for Google Play, tried all 4 Kernels linked in the OP, but unfortunately no luck :(

On searching this 201 page long thread, I haven't been able to track if someone else had the same issue and has a solution for it, so gave up on that end as well. I would really appreciate if someone comes forward to kindly help me out here. I have been flashing various ROMS since my G1 days, so I can help you debug the issue at my end if you let me know what information you need from me.

Thanks in advance guys!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] n0tr1x:
remove all accounts on your phone.. perform cache wipe. reboot and add your account back.. that should fix it..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] daring_guy:
Any particular Kernel that you recommend? I am going to try what you said in just a second and will come back to give an update.

Sorry, I meant what Radio do you recommend to work flawlessly with this ROM (Beta06)?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] n0tr1x:
im using the kid radio. it works all good and so does lb7. i have no problems with either..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] daring_guy:
Tried removing my accounts, cleared cache (CWM), Darkside.Cache.Clear and reboot did not work. I now get the same error on launch of Google Play... earlier the error was only while downloading an app or update!

Any other ideas that I should give a try?

Thanks!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] n0tr1x:
hope u added ur account back? also try installing app store (5.19) again aftr all acounts have been removed (again) for a cleaner install. play store issues are ugly.. i wish i knew more..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] daring_guy:
Yes, I did add my account back and checked the version of Play... it was 5.16. On launch of Play Store, it said it was going to download the latest version, and crashed and then get the same error. I went back to Applications to check the Play Store version, it was 5.19 now... but still does not work as expected for me!

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] SupaKid:
I don't get it.....

Everytime I download this ROM, the data is corrupted. And not just this ROM, but every ROM. It's been this way for a while, now.

I don't know what's going on.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Jeimygirl:
I can't get more than 20 hrs, that's with battery defender, screen dimmed to 0%, no sync. Wifi connected while screen I on all data off while off. I feel like I can't get the phones full potential (sync, brighter screen etc) unless I want a full discharge before the work day is over, and that's minimal use during breaks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Jeimygirl:
Could it be the way your computer is downloading it? Have you tried a different folder, different browser, deleting your cache etc on the computer? What about downloading it with your phone?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ScreamingSkulls:
Are you using a download manager? Have you tried different browsers?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] SupaKid:
No download managers, but I never thought to use a different browser.

Thanks! I'll try a different browser and report back.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] nabilbek:

just one thing i find IN ALL ROMS .... and bugs the hell out of me

touchkeys lights turn off sometimes even if u choose to have them always on in settings

keep it up :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] SupaKid:
Corrupt again.

First download with Chrome, second with Firefox.

Both times, the MD5s were the same as posted in the OP. When I try to install the ROM, I always get the error: installation aborted; bad--something like that.

And I'm using non-touch recovery.

It's been like that with both GB and ICS ROMs.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jovy23:
When installing the roms do you install it from the internal storage or the external storage (SD card) ?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] thederekjay:
Its either when ur transferring the files to your SD card from the computer or your possibly a bad SD card. Try using your internal sd card and make sure you safely disconnect the drive after transfer

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Castle5665:
Same happened to me. Deleted the installer and downloaded new one from their site. Worked fine.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] SupaKid:
Heh heh, I've always used the Internal Storage for flashing ROMs, and I always make sure to eject both Internal and External Storages, before disconnecting.

I don't know what be the deal, here.

Alright, how 'bout this:

How large is the ICS BETA 6 file? The ROM I downloaded is 327 MB. Is this the correct size?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jovy23:
Yes 327MB is right. Try to make sure you have the latest non-touch Clockwork Mod version on your t989 which is 5.0.2.7. And the other thing you can do is FORMAT your SD card! But make sure to backup everything you have in your SD card before you do so.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] SupaKid:
It's ok to format the Internal Storage, right?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jovy23:
Its better to do it from the SD card. Just Back everything up from your sd card all to your pc, then once your done backing up just format sd card, place all your stuff back to SD, and make sure you flash the roms from your SD card. Flashing roms on external storage causes less problems and its highly recommended.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] kolpa06:
Auto brightness is better in beta 05 but still it doesn't max out the brightness under direct noon sunlight. When I manually max it out, it is brighter

Btw, I am on beta 05 but dont see the issue on changelog. Sorryvif it has been fixed in beta 06
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rapalax:
Guys,

Yes this rom is great, bla bla bla...but battery life varies greatly with signal reception and use so please stop posting screenshots of your battery usage..all this does is tell us that you live or work near a tower, or that you don't use your phone. Besides, this isn't a competition forum.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] suaverc118:
Jeimygirl, you probably need to wait and flash his new beta once it comes out and hang in there. I'm a little over 24 hours and am 37%. I used it moderately yesterday and left it unplugged lastnight.. I also let it run through 2 maybe 3 complete discharges and charged up. So now my phone is great.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] thederekjay:
The king has spoken...

I for one appreciate all forms of feedback. Whether it be how terrible battery life is or how much GPS sucks, I don't even mind seeing all the screenies of excellent battery life. So be it if you're not a power user, have great signal, or even use wifi all day... keep em coming

:: DARKSIDE ::

"I am turned into a sort of machine for observing facts and grinding out conclusions..."
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] thederekjay:
There's is no issue. I tune down auto brightness on all my roms to help with battery. Auto brightness sucks up more than enough battery in itself, running at 90% vs 100% probably doesn't have much of an effect on either end.

Are you using premium app or regular? Try and update your app also?

Edit: Older versions of the app will not alow you to post screen shots being the screen shots are in png format and older versions of the app only alow jpg images to be uploaded.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jovy23:
Is it still happening after formatting the sd card? Have you tried downloading the rom on a pc first and putting it into your phone? If you try downloading it on your phone and it doesnt work, try doing it on the pc and placing it to sd and see if you still get the abort message.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] LoopDoGG79:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sinfulgray:
Are you using xda premium app or xda regular app? You could always rename your pic from .png to .jpg and should work or update your xda app.:D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] SupaKid:
Yeah.

I always download on the PC, then load to the phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sinfulgray:
After you transfer to your sd card do you recheck the md5 sum? Use root explorer and navigate to your sd card and loing press on the .zip and go to properties and you will see the md5 and see if they match and if not it is becomming corrupt some how.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] suaverc118:
Premium... I'll try that approach. That sucks though lol!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sinfulgray:
Make sure your app is updated. There was an update a little while ago that changed the format needed to upload pics. Are you using an app to take screenies or the stock method of home+power?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] suaverc118:
I'm using the stock method.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Karakoram2:
The older version of xda premium does do that
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sinfulgray:
Yeah then your probably not on the premium app and that could be your issue...but you should be fine if you just change the file extension from .png to .jpg or .jpeg
