which version were you on with a google now fc (i shouldve fixed that.. its been working fantastic for me.)

and on the other you lost me at facebook. i hate facebook, with a dying passion... so if anything is messed up with facebook then good....(im not doin it on purpose tho) but there is an apk i removed that adds that.

also bout to upload screenshots. rom will stay without a preload folder till cwm and twrp update their crap... this should be a final version for a minute. there may be an update if something serious is broken. but im gonna be starting my move tomorrow and i expect to be settled down around the first. ill still be around just not fooling with builds till utilities move over.

when i do start building again i am going to look into using the aroma installer so people can pick their bloat.

but with 1.2.0 i wanna test its long term stability before i release any potential bugfix update (other than the browser sd card bug, but you can edit that within the rom for now.)

Thanks for the quick response, sorry about your beef with Zuckerberg, I'm not a fan of his either but gotta say I've been able to connect with friends from a galaxy far far way with his website, hope you don't have a beef with Lucas LOL.

I was using the version 1.0.4, do you know which app it was you removed to sync the gallery?

Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NerdmastaX:
not 100%sure, ill have to look but i believe it was a 3 letter word.. i think snr.apk... but no i have no beef with lucas (afterlife was my fav game), just zuckerburg.. and really no beef with him either, i just dont like the concept. to much drama on facebook..

edit: wtf xda, i cant post a link in this post....

also 1.0.4 is way old, i have made 15 more since, check out 1.2.0 its slimmed down but very little was lost (unless you are a widget fan) look at the screenshots in the second post to see what widgets/apps it comes with. but i know for a fact gnow is broken in 1.0.4

but in 1.2.0 i tested every app one by one, and right now im testing every widget. not ONE fc or odd issue yet. when i get time i think this setup will stay the same in the next version, but ill go back from a fresh start using 1.0.3 or 1.0.4 to keep the preload folder, but use more of it to free up more in /system.

i know ive said this 9000 times but this is the only detail that you should be aware of on 1.2.0

it has 77 mb free in system. so if you want to add stuff in thats okay. but use an app like disk info to keep an eye on it when you make changes.

However if all you plan to do is flash a kernel or say something like acid sound mod or walkman or unlimited tethering then you should be okay.

now one more thing to clarify... we dont HAVE to re add preload. it would just give us a total of about 200 mb free in system.

so my solution. Two builds. The 1.2.0 lite build that is up now, and a 1.2.0 biglite later(after i finish moving my house) with preload usage. the biglite version will need to use the special wipe scripts until twrp and cwm are fixed. (kinda making things complicated lol)

i personally use the superwipe script every time. so its not that big of an issue for me to use a cache script. but some mods may wipe cache and dalvik on their own. if they do they would need to be edited to work in the biglite version.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mytoobits:
Thanks!

Thanks for the excellent ROM, NerdmastaX!

Been running 1.1 since it first came out with NO issues. Everything working solid and smooth.

Do you recommend any of the custom kernels that have come out? (Tiberius, Cymbaline, etc...)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Pandemic187:
Interesting. You were right - I was using an old radio, and old ICS one. It has worked perfectly on other UVMC6 ROMs, though. I tried the UVMC6 radio and it worked, so thanks for the suggestion!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NerdmastaX:
waiting on the first kernel for uvmc6 with sweep to wake, then i can make a decision. but this phone was fast to begin with. once i get settled down i use tiberius 1.1 for the fast charge feature. I worked with windows for about 20 years now and 5 with linux and android. the past 2 years i have been getting deeper and deeper. i know how to build cm10 from sources, even with paranoid, still a little rough and new when it comes to that but i got one to boot and have data and calling (evo 3d i had) working. i can follow guides and use common sense. i am familliar with the basics of coding aswell and am continuing to learn.

but i may not be the best to ask on kernel/performance opinions. because i wish we were all just on x86 hardware. i dont care if the phone has to be as big as an oldschool gameboy. and give us a proper resolution regardless of screen size. at minimum 1024x768..... i can dream cant i? (dont say windows phone 8... i will hit you with a stick)

if it wouldnt damage the phone i would always use the performance govenor and deadline scheduler with fast charge and s2w... im a pizza driver. my phone stays on... alot. my lockscreen is set to none and i have the screen timeout at 5 minutes. but when using a custom kernel (tiberius 1.1 for now) i actually use interactivex or smartassV2 and deadline.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] salamandar:
I just wanted to offer a simple thank you for a non-bloated 4.2.1 ROM with WiFi calling that simply works! Amazing how difficult it was to find one that didn't run out of system rom space almost immediately. I find i'm less interested in 4.2.2 ROMS with poor voice quality vs. a solid 4.2.1 ROM with excellent call quality.

Kudos!

Running 1.1.1. Flawlessly for 1 day... Very happy so far, best mc6 out there.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NerdmastaX:
me too.. its nice to have everything the way i want it. im using the xposed app and i am very satisfied. im running tiberius 1.1 as the kernel, i ran it all day at work with no issues and still no issues... this is fantastic. rom version will stay the same for at least 1 week. i want at minimum 7 days of stability before i make the litebig version using the preload folder (for the heck of it really... i'm happy with this base so far now...)

but essentially i reached my original goal. and i want to thank each and every one of you guys for helping me test this out and being so nice. Working on this has taught me so much and i will continue to learn and grow and hope for you all to be there when i do.

what themes/mods do you guys use with this? i like finding new things to play with and look at.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] dab231:
Classics like touch of color made by that xda retired dilly... something guy(no disrespect intended) Battery mods would be the best, also basic color themes like blue, red etc...

Well I tried to flash 1.2 using CWM and it flashes but it just keeps rebooting the phone doesn't get past the bootscreen. So I flashed TWRP and I flashed the ROM and I think it worked, it's booting up now and no constant reboots. Thanks

I keep losing my Signal, it goes back and forth between no bars to no service and it doesn't recognize my sim card. Any ideas?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bennyhu22:
I'd personally like to see a volume buttons to skip tracks mod. That would make it perfect for me. Other than that this is an awesome build ( 1.1.1). I love this rom. Thank you for the hard work with it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NerdmastaX:
your location says london, what service provider do you have? it could be a radio issue...

and benny you should try 1.2.0 it has been stable for me 100% since release. (35-40 hours so far), also the volume skip mod is right there at your fingertips. i made it kinda easy.

open your stock browser and hit the bookmarks button. go to the "Xposed In..." it will take you to the xposed installer thread. i use the xposed tweakbox aswell and that gives the volume track mod, 6 signal bars, you can change what the long press of home does and other stuff. i also use the per app settings. (link next to it in bookmarks.) that allows me to use everything like paranoid android. (except certain system apps.)

i wouldve built in the xposed framerwork but the creator requests that people don't and i respect that.

also uninstall the crappy youtube and install this piece of badassery you dont have to do anything special because youtube is in data/app and can be uninstalled.

edit: wind mobile.. check this thread. you have an away mode and home mode, and you may not be able to do it without changing your radio, and the t989d radios they refer to in that thread may not work for jellybean.

what radio are you on now? do other uvmc6 roms work signal wise? before changing radios take note of which one you are on and keep that on your phone so you can go back if needed. also do it with caution. I will also note i have no idea on how to resolve the issue, but these are just some steps in an optional direction that may or may not work, so proceed with risk.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NerdmastaX:
using a different kernel? i couldve sworn i can take pictures no problem.

just now on 1.2.0

i am using tiberius 1.1 but i got some pictures and a video of two ladybugs having sex from 4/15 on a stock kernel. that was on version 1.0.5
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] dab231:
Wiped cache with and without imfamous cache wipe. Rebooted several times, even fixed permissions. Things seem ok now, using stock kernel.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NerdmastaX:
good to hear, im 80 hours in with no issue, also, a happy 420 to everyone.

also i recently updated my recovery to twrp 2.5 (but 2.4 SHOULD be okay for 1.2.0, if i go to the preload style later you will need to upgrade your cwm or twrp.)

just changed kernel to faux's. runs buttery smooth. I reccomend trying it.

Is there any way to get the lockscreen weather to work? Does it crash bc accuweather is missing? Thx in advance.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jnhsd0319:
it seems like there is a bug on the lock screen.

whenever I hit the power button to turn on the screen, the screen brightness goes up really high for a second

and it comes back down.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NerdmastaX:
Yes that was from removing accuweather

That's normal i think. the light sensor needs a second to adjust

oh I set my brightness as lowest(not using light sensor)

Thank you

hmm it does that on mine too. i finally got a rr today on faux, i was installing google plus, running navigation and had youtube and plex paused... but im bout to flash some other roms to try and rule some issues out and get a feel for what the speed difference is. i should be done with my move by the end of the week, but i am gonna TRY to push out a small update by tuesday night. Ill change youtube, add back accuweather and do the browser sd fix. ill also cram back allshare in this one (i promise),,, Any other suggested changes?

itll be stockWalk_1.2.0_rc1

bandit refer to this post, its set in the csc files. you can edit the ones in system/csc on the phone, reboot and there you go.

edit 4/25: sorry for the delay in updating moving is a biotch, glad to hear its running great, samsung push and talkback just got updated. so thatll go in too. ive been making a changelist and over the weekend ill be working on it.

I really really like this. I was using CM 10.1 for quite a while. I missed some of the touch wiz stuff. Especially Wifi calling. I get such an awful signal in my house.. Sometimes even with the Tmobile Signal Booster I drop calls and texts fail. Wifi calling I never drop anything. I love it. So this seems nice and stable so far. no FC's or anything thus far. Hopefully the battery life is good. I have a 3650 MAH battery so It should be good enough no matter what. Other than that, I'm set.. thanks!!!!!!! :D

ok sorry for the dead time... ive been moving all my crap into my new house and im about done. im working on a new version this morning with a preload folder. i should have it up before i go to work today, but be mindful it may have issues at first. but this new version will be very similar to 1.2.0, but with more crap(allshare facebook widgets etc.) and more room in system. glad you guys are having a good time with the rom, i hope to make it even better!!

Getting a soft brick every time I do a battery pull. Reboot is OK, but if I pull battery, phone boots and hangs on the T-Mobile splash screen. Wtf? I was using cm10 previously. All proper wipes are being done and used Jamisons scripts. Any ideas?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rushing:

If you're working off a backup then you have more problems. You may need to restore again or reflash.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jaxenroth:
Thx for working on this guys. The S2 is my mothers phone, so I just wanted a clean stock ROM, everything is good just the battery pull issue. Like I said, reboot from phone pwr menu to recovery and or reboot phone is fine. Pwr off and on fine. Batt pull will cause a softbrick. Even though its softbricked I can still get to recovery. But even if I wipe C&D it still softbricks. Only full wipe will get it to boot, or flash a backup. Thx guys.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NerdmastaX:
well im gonna scrap 1.2.2 and start fresh and super slow. something bad broke and ill bet it has to do with the preload folder again. a battery pull killing your installation isnt deadly but is annoying. i do wish i could figure out what it was. the feel of 1.2.2 will be the same but i may not be able to move certain items into the preload folder. im actually gonna do some experimenting tonight/tomorrow and see if i can figure out which app is causing it. i think there is an app running that is in preload that is always messing with the data partition and when the battery is pulled it causes corruption.

couldnt figure that out... sticking with no preload for now.

I'm having terrible browser pinch to zoom performance right now... I don't know if its like this in all TouchWiz Roms, or is it my hardware, or my fingers.

Also, when I scroll, I have small stutters here and there.

When I turn off screen, when I turn on screen, I see the screen under the lockscreen at full brightness, and then I see the lockscreen.

All else, this ROM is perfect
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NerdmastaX:
well sorry guys for the hiatus, ive been distracted on my off days setting up my media center. i came back to find that ptmr3 removed the "pesky" preload too. so im gonna work on updating 1.2.0 and stay without the preload folder. and to darknight i have those issues too. i dunno if its universal or not,

on a side note though ive been running 1.2.0 with no real problems still, but as soon as i get my vm of ubuntu running and set up ill work on the update.

I need features like wifi-calling and CM/AOKP-based roms don't offer it. Sure, there are other TouchWiz based ROM's but many contain unnecessary features that simply deter users (ie. volume wake mod). I'm sure plenty of others do as well.

I made my rom completely ignoring preload on purpose. I do appreciate you coming in and trying to stir up crap. But I could really care less. I wasn't making any cracks at you on your thread. I was only mentioning that you should not chew out those who want to help you and that have been working on custom roms for years. if you took that as a direct attack at you then I am sorry.at the end of the day I'm just a pizza guy trying to help out his fellow nerds.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rushing:
Oh okay well all the past is past to me now. Im still the same person that has helped hundreds of people.

What I mean by that is if it truly is stock then it wont all fit in the system/app. if its not stock but chopped down a bit it can fit. Also by ignoring the preload you have that wasted space allocated to the /preload folder.

So anyway you need the proper symlinks to get it to boot properly when you use the preload.. any way pm me if you want ill give you the symlinks info. See its just not stock if its not using the allocated partitions. Anyway just chopping it down to fit system is fine. I delivered pizza for a while =). Drive safe brotha.

has the process changed for porting since gingerbread? (after some quick searching it looks the same, could be wrong.[found a port guide for jellybean, woot]) i havent done a public port yet though so i would need to find a rom and acquire permission to port it. i watched the video of it and it did seem pretty cool. (hmm the i9100 has an official build... so question... is permission needed on that?, if so how would i go about asking xiaomi?)

on a side note i got some of the work on the update done but i still need to do a lil more and then some testing. i should have something to play with by tomorrow.

im also gonna attempt a port of miui privately today till i can ascertain permission, just to see how hard its gonna be.(flashing test version of miui now,... failure. ill play with that l8r)

stockwalk update done, flashing and testing while it uploads.... version will be 1.3.0
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] gregcapps:
Yes, the process seems it changes with each edition of miui, file locations, files names etc.....v5 is proving to be a real pita. Even the jellybean port guide you found is not completely accurate for porting v5 .I've gotten it to boot but then a FC party starts.

hey hows it going. i tried the 1.2 a few days ago and it wasnt stable so i waited for the 1.3. i got it on and seems to run smoother than 1.2 but i cant get signal. i fell asleep for 3 hours and woke up and still had none. rebooted and reseated the sim a few times and still no go. any tips?

it usually shows the Ø for signal and for 5sec every few minutes it will show the 0bar signal then go back to the Ø. i tried dialing a number when it had 0 bars to see if it could force anything since im pretty much out of options and it just crashed the phone and wouldnt restart without pulling the battery.

other than that i turned on and off all the settings i could find related to signal and still a no go. :(
