Whe I click on the download icon in the OP, it takes me to a Goo.im page, but says that the file I am searching for cannot be found. Lower down in the page though, it gives me a list of files to choose from, which I'm assuming one of them is the rom. Which one of those do I choose?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] djtheraven:
The one that says Hercules only anything else will brick your phone
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Kamau54:
BTW, are the gapps installed in the download?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] trpnblies7:
It looks as though the Hercules files have been completely removed from LiquidSmooth's goo.im page. Not sure why. Don't download any of the files you see when you click that broken link; they aren't the correct files and will probably mess up your phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] screamline458:
I was able to download it just now. have not tried installing it tho
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Kamau54:
Are you refering to the one called:

aokp_hercules_unofficial_Feb-15-13.zip	/devs/Whitehawkx/hercules	d34e4ba776198b66a8dfbe68ff805855 ?

Third down on the list.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Kamau54:
So, is the correct file listed above the correct one to flash this ROM?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] djtheraven:
Yeah but this is the wrong thread for that file
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Kamau54:
It has changed since I last visited.

It still says at the top that the requested file cannot be found, but give me a list of files. Which one is correct for tthis rom then.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Kamau54:
It has changed again.

Anyone know which one of those files is correct for this ROM?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] dark_intel:
You probably won't find it unless someone awesome hosts it. The liquid team fell apart and one by one things are getting removed.

I think it is. Other devices have an updated liquid ROM or a carbon ROM. Wish we did
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NSingh95:
Hey guys I just rooted my SGSII couple of days ago and I love the "liquid Smooth" rom, I will never change unless something goes drastically wrong.

H/e I am having couple of issues I have noticed so far,

1 - people are not able to hear me as well as they used to during a call, i am having to speak significantly louder

2 - GPS navigation does not pick up the GPS signal

If I have overlooked something previously mentioned im sorry but if someone could please help me sort out the issues it would be great!

Thanks in advance.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Shaancc:
I don't have either of those problems, I'm using the hotcakez kernel that's posted in this thread somewhere (I'd link it but I can't find it)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NSingh95:
If anyone can find me the link to the mentioned kernel I would really appreciate that maybe it will resolve the issues I'm having.

I really appreciate your response!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] richardlibeau:
I use kko kernel and it runs great but here's both kko and hotcakes kernels
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NSingh95:
Thanks a lot for posting the kernel's, I am downloading them and letting the phone charge a little before I go ahead and flash the new kernel and I will give KKO a shot first and see how that goes; hopefully will fix my gps and low mic pic up issues.

Will report back soon.

Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] richardlibeau:
If you still have gps issues try this out it might help you. Mine loads my location instantly.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NSingh95:
I'm not a total expert at this rooting thing although I have done my fair share, but do I just flash this file and the kernel just as I would a rom, obviously without and wiping/factory resetting??

Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] richardlibeau:
Just flash and reboot should be good to go.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NSingh95:
Hey Richard, so I flashed the KKO kernel and my GPS seems to be working just fine and since I don't have any problems with it then I guess for the time being I should skip on flashing the patch that you linked to me.

If I experience any further problems with gps then I will certainly go ahead and do it.

Let me know if you recommend otherwise!

Thanks again for all the help.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] richardlibeau:
If you don't need patch that's good it just in case you have problems.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] paulrodgers34:
Will any of these kernels work with cyanogenmod 10.1 2/26 nightly 4.2.2

Just don't wanna paperweight lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] richardlibeau:
Thats a gamble not sure it might not brick it but don't chance it.Better off using asdk or cerux kernel for 4.2.2 roms
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] paulrodgers34:
I think you're right I still got 7 months before I can upgrade lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NSingh95:
Hey guys on my rom my gmail app will not update so before I went ahead and I uninstalled it from titanium backup I wanted to get your guys advice that is that something I should consider or is there another way to update the app without uninstalling the system app. I would appreciate any help

Thank You
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] djtheraven:
I had the same problem so I pulled the gmail app from the 12.12.12 gapps and then updated it
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] richardlibeau:
Just uninstall and reinstall from store.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NSingh95:
Thanks for the both replies guys, I will go ahead and do that.

However recently I have been noticing another problem. During phone calls its really difficult for the other person to hear me unless i speak quite loud and also if I place calls on speakerphone the person on the other end is able to hear themselves...

I reported this issue previously along with the GPS issue, h/e updating to the KKO kernal resolved the GPS issue h/e the above mentioned still remains, if anyone could please point me in a certain direction to rectify the problem.

Thanks a lot again!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] djtheraven:
Honestly I haven't found any rom/kernel yet for this phone that did not have that echo on speaker phone
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NSingh95:
How about fixing the mic issues so the other person can hear me better?

Have you tried the Hotcakes kernal?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] djtheraven:
That's the one I've used since Nov...I keep experimenting with 4.2.2 but keep coming back to this...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NSingh95:
So i understand you are using Hotcakes - do you experience the issue of people not being able to hear you when u speak a little softer?

I am currently on KKO, any benefit of switching to hotcakes?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] richardlibeau:
Kko works great on my phone I don't know other people . I have no issues at all with calls or mic
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NSingh95:
I can keep changing the kernal correct??? it wouldn't cause any damage because in this case I will try out Hotcakes as well and see if that resolves the issues!

Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] richardlibeau:
Yeah no problem but just to make sure nothing is left behind from a previous kernel flash this first then flash new kernel. It is not necessary but just to make sure your new kernel is installed clean. I use it everytime I flash a new kernel.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] djtheraven:
I used both in the beginning and I liked hotcakes better but I did have problems until : I had the rom installed and installed the kernel later like most people..so I did a factory reset only with both installed , installed all my stuff after and everything was perfect...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NSingh95:
Thanks a lot!

Great tool!

---------- Post added at 11:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:35 PM ----------

I guess I will give it a chance by flashing Hotcakes and if that doesn't fix it and issues persist I will do a clean install by installing the kernel and rom first!

Thanks for the advice!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NSingh95:
Hey richard one more question. Right now im flashing the HotCakez kernel but when i plugged in my phone into the computer it gives me an error and doesn't recognize the device so i cant mount sd and transfer files. I tried with Android Debugging on/off both.

what steps should i take to resolve?

thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] getontarget:
THANK YOU! Was using another rom, but curious if other roms on the same base had problems with gps. Lo and behold, you have a flashable zip, and now it works. Thanks again.:good:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] hatememarkz:
Rich u got Tha fast charge zip

AOKP B4 NOS V0.0.7
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] richardlibeau:
Here you go just open the zip and install the apk.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NSingh95:
What exactly is the fast charge ?? does it speed up charging? does it mess anything up?

Thanks guys!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] richardlibeau:
Just let you know at what rate your phone is charging. If 800-900+ that's fast charge. 400-500 or less is slow charge . Different chargers give at different rates. Basically it letes you know if your charger is functioning at max speed. It also allows you to fast charge using a ac charger like car charger etc. It makes sure while you are charging that it is at max 904if your charger isn't messed up. It does not hurt anything.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NSingh95:
Okay thanks a lot for the help and description, when I installed it it said "Fast Charge (A/C)" - 905 ... I assume that my phone is charging at the highest possible speed it can.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] richardlibeau:
Thts coorrect 905 is great
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NSingh95:
Does anyone have a tethering app working properly, so I could tether wireless... I have had tried multiple apps unsuccessfully... Please if someone can help...

THanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] djtheraven:
I used system one and it works fine for me...if it's not working for you maybe your blocked
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NSingh95:
But do you have to pay for using the system one?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] djtheraven:
You don't, but I don't abuse it either..I've heard that tmo will catch on if all of a sudden you are using massive amounts of data...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] aujbman:
Good thing I always use massive amounts of data!! ;)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NSingh95:
Okay ima going to give it a shot and see if it works... ill report the results.

thanks for the help

***Edit

well i just checked it out and its working fine, i guess the realization has to be that its not the official software from t-mobile that we are using anymore after we have rooted and upgraded to another so its difficult for t-mo to limit any of the user options...

Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] shatterpoints:
Just wanted to add to this. I use easytether for my tethering needs and tmobile flagged me cos I would watch loads of netflix and I guess they figured it out when I was over my 5GB of data. Anyway I now use a 3rd party VPN which masks my data and I can tether even though I don't have tethering on my plan ( I switched to their no tether/ unlimited mobile data with no throttle) So if you want to keep using the system tether app invest in a VPN it will make your life easier in that you wont have to buy an app for tethering.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] rodraf:
The ROM is awesome but one thing I dont like is the charging animation when the phone is off... it is so dull, is there a way to change this?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tommyguns818:
[SOLVED]hey guys. I would like to try this Rom out but the link on the first page isn't working. does anyone have one? also gapps please.

All stars combined there download links all in one forum page.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NSingh95:
Thanks for advice, but I don't use my tethering for supporting my home network or anything... I just like to tether when I have my tablet or laptop where I don't have wifi access and then I tether for just browsing etc.. nothing major as to watching movies/shows or downloading large files...

Given that info, do I still need to consider a vpn or such usage shouldn't raise any red flags?

Also is there any fix to audio for this rom guys, its really annoying when you have to yell on the phone and the other person can barely hear you and they hear an echo of their voice if i use speaker!

Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] richardlibeau:
I am on the same rom for months now. I do not have any echo or audio issues. Try using UVLI4 radio and see if it helps.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ritz23:
This rom is working really well and stable for me but there is a slight problem with bluetooth.

I am able to connect bluetooth with my computer but I am unable to access any services such as file transfer or playing music from the phone on the computer. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

I tried bluetooth with a different phone on gingerbread and it works well with the computer so the problem is not in the computer.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tommyguns818:
Yes this Rom is awesome. Everything works for me. No call echo, GPS locks and a fast camera. I connect easily with blue tooth. Only to my head set

Sent from my SGH-T989
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NSingh95:
Could you possibly provide me the file of the mentioned radio.

Also I know I have installed a few tweaks such as the GPS fix and a different kernel and my question is that if I was to wipe the phone completely and try a new ROM, all the things such as the radio and GPS fix would also be removed correct? So its not anything permanent I'm changing?

Thanks Guys!

**EDIT

Actually just googled the name and got the result from XDA site and i am downloading it right now and hopefully soon I will have no problem with the calls... Will post after I flash the radio.

If the radio for some reason doesn't work for me is there anyway to remove the radio by it self?

Or do I need to do a nandroid before I flash the radio?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] richardlibeau:
No you cannot remove radio but flash another one like UVLE1 or UVLH1 over top of it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NSingh95:
So essentially i should make a nandroid backup before I proceed incase i want to return to the original radio?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] style154:
They did just build for the nexus devices. I flashed it on my n7 so maybe we can get unofficial or a port of it?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] richardlibeau:
That would be cool with me
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NSingh95:
I would really like to get a 4.2.2 for this ROM because i tried the All-star ROM and it has many glitches that i wasn't happy with... i havent had any issues with this one except the lack of frequent updates... not to bash or anything but it certainly would be icing on the cake!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] chicohonda91:
i used liquidsmoothup until rc9 then when 4.2.2 came out waited until aokp got most to all bugs out and flashed away milestone 1. if they did update i would probably be back to it. but for now aokp is great and very reliable.

Richard, the first time I tried RC7 and JB Liquid Gapps (last week) I did have both liquid splasher and liquid launcher in the menu, this time around I flashed RC7 and the KDH Gapps and there is no liquid launcher, that's why I was asking if it might have been included there. Guess I'll install those gapps also and see if it shows up, hope I don't muff anyhting up and I'll let you know how it goes :fingers-crossed:

OK never mind, just flashed the JB liquid gapps and not in there

Hey Richard, I just reflashed RC7 and have both launchers in the settings menu (liquid & splasher)

Edit: ok found the culprit, flashing the KDH gapps caused the liquid launcher setting to dissappear, my fix will be to use Apex Pro to remove the g search bar and adjust the amount of screens.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] richardlibeau:
Thats weird i dont can you post the apk or system ui apk you have. All mine says under liquid settings is splasher and theme chooser.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Jdom58:
We must have posted at the same time LOL, reflash RC7 but don't use the KDH gapps, use the liquid gapps
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] richardlibeau:
Ok i will try that but i dont know if its worth it to flash over what i have now anyway.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] StickyK3ys:
I instantly install nova launcher because I can back up and restore my home screen layouts. I've experienced no issues with it. However, I will try out the default launcher a little later to see if that happens for me as well.

Edit: after some pretty ****ed up 60 seconds it organised everything and keyboard is still mostly liquid smooth... Definitely get kko
