Thanks for the update!!! I just got a good deal on the t.m. galaxy s2 and Im loving it!! Ive been on the HTC mytouch 4g for the last year or so (which just got a functional but beta release 3.0 kernel). I know Im off topic but just wanted to introduce myself to this community I think youll probably see me quite often. Again....a big thanks and much appreciation to all the devs and testers keeping this device "fresh":cool:

Did you check the MD5 before flashing it? Also what recovery are you on ?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] joeh2184:
v5.0.2.6 recovery. well im kinda new to all this what am i looking for checking the md5? I dowloaded the ROM, put on SD card ran both the wipe and the cache as in the post on page one, and still get the status 7.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jdmdc2y0:
Get md5 checker from app store. Make sure the md5 matches up with the ROM.

You're using an old recovery bro... Download the latest TWRP http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=32850072 (flashable zip), install it and it all should be good. Also you don't need to use the darkside super wipe nor the cache script no more.

OK i installed that zip. said it was installed. so i went back to install the ROM and i get the same status 7 error. it says

E: ERROR IN /SDCARD//PA_HERCULES-2.22-150CT201-B2.ZIP

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] BRKotucs:
When you installed the ROM again where you still on CWM 5.0.2.6 or TWRP?

If you were on cwm even after installing TWRP the ROM wouldn't flash until you change your recovery completely... Re download the ROM, check md5 then boot back into recovery and make sure you're on TWRP 2.3.1.1. If so go ahead and flash the ROM.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] kevinbear:
Haven't had a chance to check on this issue on the latest build yet. but has anyone else experienced a bug where even though Wi-Fi is supposedly turned off, it actually sometimes turns on?

Basically, I turn off my Wi-Fi when I leave the house to go to work, as my work's Wi-Fi has an irritatingly restrictive firewall. But I'll go to use my phone to browse to a webpage and suddenly be hit by the firewall message disallowing a site. I will then check my Wi-Fi setting in confusion, setting that is supposedly off already.

Turning Wi-Fi "on" and then back off again usually fixes it.

Just curious if anyone else has experienced this or if it's just me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] BRKotucs:
Not at all... The only thing I've experienced so far is a lot of graphical glitches... I'm gonna wipe again to see if it'll go away.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Andr3s:
Hi, I wonder if you can upgrade without losing all the settings and programs?

if you go thru TWRP and just cache wipe x3 and dalvik wipe x3 (rather than system/factory) then flash your newer version of PA you should be solid. of course, always backup just in case ;)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] EuroSpeed:
Those aren't displayed correctly. The toggles shouldn't have the bar underneath when it is themed.

Wanted to try PA for a while now.. but I kinda like CM10... and need my phone to wake me up. Would I be good to go with this? Read the last couple pages... but because I have no backup alarm clock I'm wary.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Avatiach:
I can only share from my experience, of course, but I'm very pleased with this ROM. I've been using the Oct. 11 version as my daily driver for the past few days without any issue, no RR/SODs, fast and smooth, with battery life quite erratic - sometimes great, sometimes bad. Probably depending on an app I have installed.

I updated to Oct 15 b2 this morning (dirty upgrade), and things still look OK. I also checked the alarm clock and it seems to work fine for me, no FCs.

Hope this helps!

I agree, battery life is incredibly erratic-- great at times (3% drain per hour) other times absolutely awful (100% drain in 7.5 hours, while I was asleep!) it was definitely a WTF moment, fortunately I didn't have anywhere important to be :confused:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] blatz729:
Chimera was my latest ics Rom too. I switched and I'm really glad I did. There is slightly less customization than Chimera ics but still worth the switch.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mastajest:
Great ROM! Only two minor issues noticed so far.

1) Changing the order for the toggles is wonky; I wasn't able to move the Wi-Fi toggle at all, and sometimes the other toggles wouldn't change to the spot I wanted.

2) Changing the volume when using youtube flickers the mulitiple volume pop-up right before the volume window disapears.

Again, minor issues, still great DD.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] blatz729:
Depends which version. If your running a 6.X.X.X version then just do the same procedures. If your running a 5.X.X.X you would need the help of Darkside wipe scripts. Or you can just upgrade to TWRP (:

I'm also up in the middle of nowhere working the oil fields for the next 2 weeks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] BRKotucs:
I flashed this ROM yesterday and because of the graphical glitches I wiped it again this morning , so far I haven't seen the glitches yet. Also tried to replicate the issues you're having but I didn't see it happening in mine. Adjusting the volume while watching a video on YouTube is working as it should as well as moving the toggles around.

Full wipe and I didn't restore anything at all. All clean and fresh.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] T-Fanatic:
So I just upgraded to 6.X.X.X. Are you saying I no longer need to do the dark side wipes? Do I do anything else different?

My normal process is:

Darkside full wipe

Install ROM, gapps, inverted gapps

Darkside cache wipe.

Thanks in advance

Edit: I went back and read the other process, so I get it now.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mastajest:
Oh ok. I guess I can live with them for now because I would really hate to reinstall all my apps again...I've accumulated so many that restoring with TiBu is essential for me. I'll try wiping dalvik and see if that helps.

Search for it in on xda.

Issues I've had:

1. After charging for any amount of time, Won't deep sleep unless I reboot

2. Taking a pic with flash causes reboot

3. Underwater mic

I had the same issue on my phone (was an insurance replacement that I had for just under 2 months). I tried different JB and ICS roms, then odined back to stock and it persisted in all of them. I ended up having to do a warranty exchange.

My new phone has great call quality, but the radio seems a bit weaker than the last one. Swapping out the modems doesn't change anything. I always had a tough time getting a decent signal at work, but it seems especially so now.

I loved my Vibrant (even though the GPS was flaky), and I was thankful that Asurion replaced it with the GS2. Aside from the hiccups, it's been a great phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] elementalx:
I wasn't telling them their own experiences. Maybe you should read more, dude.

I was saying that it isn't true that no one has had water mic problems. If you look back in the form I have say such a couple of times. Still have the problem.

Speaker phone would work well enough to use for calls (but sill had a bit of echo). I didn't try with the headphones. After trying several roms and reverting back to stock, I knew it was faulty hardware. When I first got the phone, noise suppression helped, but it got worse and worse.

The replacement they sent me works very well for calls.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] BRKotucs:
Well, actually the Gapps don't have those apks in it like internet, phone and gallery. Those should already come in the ROM. If you just flash the ROM you'll see what I mean. I'm using inverted Gapps... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=29343474

A few observations

Hi All,

First i wanted to thank for the folks who shared battery monitoring tools - awesome recommendations!

I wanted to share two obserbations I'm seeing on my phone and see whether others have them too and maybe found a solutoin for. Actually, these are not specific for this ROM, but are probably coming from the CM10 base, since they happened there too, but since this is my current ROM and users here are so helpful, I thought I'd ask them here :)

1. I noticed that a lot of times I have one of the following processes heavily loading the CPU for hours: Download Manager, Downloads or DRM services. When this happens, it's causing the fast battery drains I mentioned. It usually happens after a reboot, but sometimes it can happen regardless of rebooting. When this happens, the only way to stop this is to freeze the misbehaving process via TB and unfreeze it again - then the CPU load stops until the next time.

I've seen this happening on all JB ROMs, but I was wondering if this if just me or if others have this issue as well?

2. After installing the October 15th b2 version, I have issues with Instagram - when loading an existing image from the gallery and trying to edit it, it takes it long times to load and the same happens every time I try to switch an effect. It also gets all messed up when I try to apply blur. This also happened on the latest CM10 nightlies, but didn't happen on earlier ones and also doesn't happen when I revert to the October 11th PA ROM, so I'm guessing it's more of a CM issue we're inheriting.

Any other instagram users that encountered this?

Again - these are probably not specific to our ROM, but was hoping someone might have good advice for solving any of those.

Many thanks!
