[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] S.V.I:
So, I discovered that flash player works with this ROM quite well if you check HW overlays button in the menu. Otherwise hulu is choppy.

Also wish there was a screen timeout toggle for the notification bar. I think I may ha e seen it in cm10 nightly once and just ASSumed that it would be here also.

Had to mod my GPS.conf file to get the GPS working propper but then it was great.

(I'd post it here, but I have no PC at the moment. :( ).

Only had two sys freezups all day.

Also, some of the menu items ( like what happens when you plug the headphones in) had to be turned on and off and then on again to get them to work... could that be because I used twrp to flash ROM and gapps without rebooting in between?

This is a DD as far as I am concerned. Making a backup of it when I get a chance. Thanks for all the hard work. :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] MarsHD2:
While it sat for 10 minutes, I downloaded apps on it, then rebooted, is that okay or should I do a clean flash again?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mulletcutter:
Waiting 10 minutes is a personal preference.... I don't do it and have not had one sod or rr.. But if u downloaded apps u didn't let it sit :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] averagedawg:
too many flashes? Weird things happening.

I am having problems flashing - not sure why.

I have flashed 30 or 40 different roms and updates, but now things keep getting kind of weird. I always wipe / factory reset from CWM - I am wondering if the wipe is actually wiping. (my downloads are still in the "download" folder etc.)

I have put back on the stock ROM with Odin, but when Odin finishes, i keep seeing the "samsung" logo and it will not finish booting...

Occasionally, i can get a stock rom to flash and reboot, and things work.

Then, when I try to flash another custom rom - things get wierd. For example, with this last flash, i could not reboot from the menu. I had to hold down the power button or pull the battery. I would just get a message that said "device rebooting" but would never reboot. Then, i came in this AM, and the phones screen was black and i could not get it to turn on.

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] datrapstar:
Hope I don't sound rude but this is still a wip. There will be issues.. ok with that said, I have not had any issues. And I clean installed everytime. My process is as follows

1) darkside superwipe

2) reset factory/data

3) mounts/storage- format data& system 2x

4) flash ROM

5) flash gapps. (7/26 are recommended but I use 8/11 since I don't video record, cam only maxes out at 3mp)

6) flash venom 7.2

7) flash rotation fix

8) flash darkside cache

9) reboot wait 10 mins without touching it. 10) reboot again and click all the stuff I need to click (debug, hw overlay,sensors,GPU rendering.)

I have a lag free ROM with maybe 5% flickering if any. My phone dont deepsleep. But I can get up to 12 hrs battery 6 hrs screentime. And that's heavy use. Hope this helps someone
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Dougshell:
If you are having issues with deep sleep, make sure that you reboot after unplugging your phone from the charger.

Also you may not be having issues, but flashing thederekjays kernel you are removing about 2 weeks of kernel changes from teamkang
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] datrapstar:
Understood sir but if I'm getting no issues wouldnt that be profit? I understand your advice fully. Being that everything is on a package deal there are tweaks that have been done but I started for 48 hrs using the ROM stock. Only after the small issues I had is when I tried other options.

Edit. I don't want to hijack the thread. Feel free to pm if you wish

I think you have to have "pulse notification lights" checked in "settings/display" for bln to work.

latest nightly can anyone mount the SD card using the android mounting system?

It's not showing up for me.. just that USB debugging is enabled. Cannot mount it to my computer..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] parusia:
Which recovery are you using? If you are using CWM 5.X.X.X you will need the Darkside Wipe/cache and permissions flashable via CWM. If you are using the CWM 6.X.X.X. you need to wipe dalvik cache, and fix permissions from Recovery. Must of the time when your phone is hanging at the reboot screen is because you are using the CWM 5.X.X.X. and needs the DJ flashable Wipe and permissions. Hope this can help you.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] streinjer:
Everytime i try to use tango video app, it FCs.. Can someone confirm this. Coz ive tried just about 3 other jb roms and it does the same thing. It doesn't even work for me in ics aokp.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Whitehawkx:
OP updated.

-LOTS of kernel updates

-some framework updates

-ril updates/fixes

-IME toggler can now be added to navbar

-fingerprint updated to LH1

-stuff I'm probably forgetting...

-STILL FLICKERS OCCASIONALLY
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] wj04:
Dumb question:

Is this update in the core rom or in a nightly release?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Whitehawkx:
Nightly.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] blatz729:
ily
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Whitehawkx:
Fun Fact - on SGS3 setting minimum cpu freq to 590 fixes the screen flicker. I can confirm this seems to also work on his device (well, min is 594).
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] fly_us:
Its seem has no effect on mine, still flickering
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Dougshell:
doesnt help with my phone either
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] VoiD_Dweller:
fails on hercules! :(
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Whitehawkx:
Weird, I have my hercules right here and after changing the min to 594 it stopped flickering. Oh well. :(

Either way, flickering seems minimum and build is running really smooth for me. ^^
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] playya:
Link here

Posted in CM10 thread and I personally tried it and it did stop flickering.... YMMV
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] datrapstar:
Here we go.. flashing and testing. :D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mulletcutter:
It still flickers when I swipe down status bar, I have it hidden using apex. But it has flickered when just sitting there. But good for me
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bigdogjt:
that seems to work for me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] TerrorCandii:
No flicker when I disable HW, but will still try the build.prop thingie mentioned above. Will download Sep 10th update tonight. Mmm...always excited when I see updates pop up.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] playya:
did you reboot... I have no issues after I rebooted at all

glad I could pass on some good info that was passed on to me

download rom toolbox and use their built in build.prop editor and check it out. I bet you it would of taken less time that it took you write the above post.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DonLew:
thnx Playya!!! works 4 me :good:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] PorchSong:
Whitehawkx,

I can't track this down so I'm not sure if it is my phone or my config, but I can't get the pc to usb connect to either sdcards. Only notification I see is the debug notification, not the usb connect notification.

This started with 10/6 which was a full wipe install. Same issue with 10/10 (dirty install). I've seen others mention this, but no confirmation.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] algorhythm:
Any idea if bluetooth audio works in Sept 10 build?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] superuser696:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] epresson:
Bluetooth audio still doesn't work :(
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mulletcutter:
Yep rebooted... And now I'm getting flickers. About the same. Apex 1.3 beta 5. It only does it in the launcher
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] algorhythm:
Damn :(
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Dougshell:
Ok, I am trying to build this from source, but why cant i seem to get the new boot animation. I just built from, source about 2 hours ago, and the build that i came up with had the old rainbow unicorn boot animation. But the new nightly that whitehawkx posted has initiating swagger.?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] PorchSong:
Nope. It's checked (I get the "android debugging enabled" notification). But if you're getting the usb connect option when plugging in, then it has to be a config error on my side.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] playya:
I am running the same launcher but its not a flicker more like a pause for me. Nice launcher but its a lil slow when returning to the home screen especially after closing down an app using hold back button to kill
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] superuser696:
no uncheck it

uncheck it
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] corwest:
Doesn't this do the se thing as disabling HW overlays? The project butter in JB involves triple layer buffering and this looks like all it does is knock it back down to dual layer correct? I think that's what HW overlays does as well. Shot in the dark so let me know if I'm wrong
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mulletcutter:
I'm running instigatorx kernel. No problems with speed with the launcher.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mobbarley:
that's what I understood from it as well. I think it's just making it so that Disabling HW overlays sticks on reboots
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] casonswag:
Running good on stock kernel so farr i also did the build.prop tweak and it fixed the flickering
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Locksmith81:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] iwasblown:
I still can't get to my external SD on system tuner, so my cache size is stuck at 128 and cfq. Is there anything in the ROM to do? I just want to be able to save my phone calls which are gigabytes sometimes and it's moving real slow on aokp with the external cache size.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] casonswag:
Use rom toolbox to change the sdcard cache size and the I/O for kernel
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] iwasblown:
The volume is one level all the time with phone calls with my wired headset. This ROM is great though, a little refining maybe possible but its butter with the kernel from the skyrocket forum.

is BLN working for anyone? Love that the data usage tab is back in settings lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jgbenito7:
You have to get BLN free so that they are on and working, then set blinking in led settings. Took me a little bit to figure it out with handcent. Turned out my handcent led settings were off.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Teo032:
damn it~! I wonder what WH changed that affected bluetooth audio. I checked the bluetooth conf files and i didn't anything wrong with them. Is there an option where we can choose which output we want the media to come from? Like how we can choose the output for phone audio when connected to bluetooth. I need to bump my bieber music in my car (jk guys).

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] averagedawg:
Dap, Thanks for the insight. I am just asking if anyone else i having this issue, had this issue or can tell me how to resolve a similar issue. I can't even flash the stock with Oidn at the moment. It won't boot... I understand this is all WIP, but just trying to find some help.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] PorchSong:
Hmmm, regarding being able to connect my phone to the pc and view the phone's sdcards I have a couple of questions. First, I can see and access the files on both the internal and external sdcard but, I am accessing them as a portable drive. Prior to 10/6 build, and with all other roms I've loaded over the last 3 years, I've been able to access the phones sdcards via the "USB Connect" option. And, the sdcards were assigned dive letters.

So, is anyone getting that option to turn on "USB Connect" (where drive letters actually get assigned to your drives)? Or is this option no longer available and we have to connect to the phone as a portable network drive?

In other words, is anyone getting the process where when you plugged in your phone, you got a USB notification on your phone and then you clicked the button to connect to your computer via USB? All I get now is the "Android debuggin enabled" notification without the USB option.

Thanks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jgbenito7:
I also have this problem on the newest build.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] superuser696:
uncheck debug

is your debugg unchecked?

because if its not is will go to dedug mode instead of usb.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jgbenito7:
Yeah its unchecked. It still wont give me the usb notification.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] casonswag:
Idk but i think whitehawk might of fixed the sod and rr i havent gotten one yet and i usually would of gotten one by now! This build feeling solid
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] superuser696:
and it says usb debug when you plugg it into a computer?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] playya:
Have you tried any of the apps in the market for USB mount. I have not tried to mount it as a drive but I bad these issues on my Xoom and Epic touch. Honestly I think file transfer is faster in the current MTP mode
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] v3rsatile23:
I concur.. Smooth sailing thus far on stock kernel. Set min frequency to 540 just in case.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] thederekjay:
in regards to the "usb mount" did anyone go into storage setting and click the menu capacitive button and click on "usb computer connection" make sure mtp isnt enabled by switching to mass storage/usb
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Locksmith81:
Just tried it...when I hit menu button nothing comes up.... hhhmmmm
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] blatz729:
Same... that's so weird..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] v3rsatile23:
Yeah nothing came up.. It's all good I just go into recovery and mount usb there to transfer files. Internel and external usually always pop up in twrp recovery.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] PorchSong:
TDJ,

Very glad to see you still lurking around XDA. Thanks for the reply and suggestion, but I am not getting any menu options at all from System Settings>Storage> (Capacitive menu button). All I see is the "Internal Storage" (the actual 2G partition for apps), the other "Internal Storage" (the internal sdcard), and "SD CARD" (external sdcard).

I also just did a clean and naked install with no apps to make sure it wasn't a user config error. Something happened with the 9/6 build and has been carried over to the 9/10 build. I can not figure out how to get a USB mount.

Is there a different path or spot for the "storage" setting you are suggesting?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Locksmith81:
I just connected my phone to my PC and it reads both internal and external SD, my PC recognizes my device as "T-989"
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bigmixxx:
Imma play around with it and see if it's REALLy bad

I don't see it either, but I don't think it's BAD, BAD. On my XP machine, I can still get to the drives, add and drop as I please. I can manage music with Songbird (It had MTP support). Imma play with Keis a bit (Yes I know booooo) but It might not be as bad as we think it is..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] PorchSong:
Thanks for replying, but we all can see and access the drives via MTP as you are doing so. We are trying to gain access with USB Mount so that the sdcards are assigned Drive Letters. I have a very specific reason why I need a drive letter assigned. Furthermore, MTP does not show all files on your sdcards all the time.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Locksmith81:
I see exactly what you are talking about. +1
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mulletcutter:
If u mean drive letters while hooked to a computer, that's what mine does. Gives it like E & F.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Locksmith81:
on build 091012?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mulletcutter:
Just checked it gave internal sd drive G. External didn't mount.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] PorchSong:
Are you getting the "Mount USB" button when you connect to computer?

I just did a nandroid, then fully wiped and installed 9/10 build with no other apps, and still can't get a usb mount (Drive letters E:, F:, etc.).
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mulletcutter:
Yep, comes up right away
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] PorchSong:
Great, now this will drive me nuts. I did notice that when I connect the 9/6 or the 9/10 build, utorrent is reading this as a "Samsung Galaxy Tab" device while all other rom builds showed as Samsung Galaxy S II. Maybe something there?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] iwasblown:

Hello everyone on XDA. Right now I am using the stable version of Cyanogenmod and I was just wondering if anyone can give me a complete update to this ROM as I have a plethora of questions:

Is this ROM stable enough for YOU as a daily driver?

What are the current problems in the ROM (Apps not working? Force closing? Stuttering? Lag?)

How is the camera? Just because it works doesn't mean it is fully functional.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] playya:
Don't take this the wrong way but there are 2 ways to get your answer 1. Read thus thread thoroughly 2. Flash and test it yourself

Your questions could have multiple answers both positive and negative just block out an hour of your time and go for it.... Sorry thus was not meant to flame but educate a little....
