I'm probably missing something here (a play on "slim"? it's late and I'm not good with text based humor), but I promise TLMC4 does work with this rom. I've been running it for two days with no problems. You can grab it here on this wonderful thread.

You can also go into settings > storage and press the menu button (it is also visible as a 3 dot overflow if you have that enabled) and then press USB computer connection. You can choose the type of connection you'd like from in that dialog box.

Hi OP, I really admire you work on creating such a wonderful rom for us.

I have a little request and i would be very thankful to you if you could acknowledge it and complete my request by donating some of your precious time.

Actually when device is powered off we can't see the battery status icon during charging, which creates a little difficulty in knowing the battery status. Please add the charging icon support to this rom.

Thanks in advance :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] prbassplayer:
No. Its removed on propuse wasted space. There is no reason to shut down the device to charge. At any rate you can add the images yourself if you really need them.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Maxninja:
Correct me if I'm wrong, isn't that called a "battery power cycle" and isn't it recommended to charge while off to sustain a good battery?

Phone History:

1. HTC My touch 3G Fender Ed-lost

2. Moto Razor V9x-broke

3. T959V-BRICKED

4. T959-#ROOTED-Slim-build6-official

5. T989-#ROOTED-Slim-build6-official
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] prbassplayer:
Nope I never noticed any difference using that method. Good cycle just means drain it till off and charge. Doesn't have to be off.

Anyone in here manage to get the new Instagram update (4.0) with video? It looks like they've rolled out different versions for different devices, and I can't imagine why our phone wouldn't be supported. I'm thinking it's possibly something to do with how our phone/this rom is interpreted in the play store?

Anyone have any insight?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
Not to knock that excellent screen time....but you didn't use any apps! LOL. My guess....you put screen time out on 30 minutes to see how long you could get on a charge. That's great....but that's just screen on and absolutely nothing running! ;) Not really a measure of normal use. Just don't wanna get the new people overly excited ....and see all the "why is my screen time only 2 or 3 hours" posts. Lol

I also noticed that front facing camera in portrait mode is stretched out (only fixed when putting phone in landscape first then rotating the phone back to portrait)

just installed this rom today. Youtube update on google play not updating. Rom issue/compatibility?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] HQuser:
240dpi is alot for this phone, images and text will result blurry. Use stock value of 213 or something dpi. Better use nexus 7 preset dpi, works best for me.

My boy, I charge my phone with data cable and it charges fast while powered off on data cable.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] simon21:
I'm running the 6.5 build. Doing a factory reset seemed to fix most problems. Looking pretty good, except my bluetooth sometimes stops working. It just refuses to turn on. I also can't send MMS anymore. I'm using straight talk Tmobile. It had worked with build 4. It would also be nice to put an option to adjust the vibratioon intensity because it is kind of weak. Thanks for all the hard work.

[MENTION=4931734]HQuser[/MENTION]...What ever tickles your millimeter peter :D Op doesn't have time to "tell you" how to add a charging icon when there's options in kernel tuner apps that have a usb fast charge toggle option and basically.......that nobody does your silliness. ...Silly child. :banghead:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] HQuser:
lol i never noticed a difference after enabling fastcharge... Can you name few kernel tunning apps which has charging icon option?

I can conform that, But thats bug of CM, I face those issues on my other devices aswell running CM10.1.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tommyguns818:
[MENTION=4931734]HQuser[/MENTION] ... Trickster Mod is my favorite app for fast charge and tweaking things. I don't know an app though to add charging icon. Google it. I'm sure somebody does. Or charge phone in twrp recovery. Your phone is basically off and tells you your battery level. And i have to say... 240 density looks beautifully on my s2. It's not that blurry as you think it is. I've actually edited the build prop to set desired density so that first flash... it's ready to go.

charging issues

Having charging issues. Does not charge when plugged in. The phone acknowledges that it is plugged shows charging icon but battery % continues to drop down until it dies. Thoughts on how to fix this anyone? When going into the battery settings. It will say "charging" when initially plugged in, then after 5-10 seconds it will say "not charging" even though the battery icon stays green
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] prbassplayer:
Does it charge while off or?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] marscandybars:
I had it plugged in all night and woke up to a dead phone (which I found odd). I think it charges (very slowly) when it is off but doesn't seem to charge when on?

Also, is there anywhere i can get the flashable zip or apk for the stock email application so i can add my exchange email
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] prbassplayer:
I find this strange. Does it occur on other roms?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] marscandybars:
just this rom. I'm on a new flash with this rom. ... seemed to resolve it self (for now) and I'm hoping it doesn't do this when I'm out on the road :/. So far everything seems ok. Had one complete freeze up when browsing on chrome with only 2 tabs open. Still trying to figure out how to get the stock e-mail app ...

That would happen to me when I dirty flashed from 4.2 to a 5.x build (dumb idea period). So I can confirm that it happens. Did you clean flash?

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] marscandybars:
Yah. FIRST time installing this particular rom. I even ran the superwipe zip before flashing. Also has anyone else noticed a bug in front facing camera view in portrait mode? (all stretched out). Only fixed when u turn to lanscape mode then back to portrait.

Per the other reply I assume the e-mail app is in the "extras" add-on? Cuz I only need the e-mail app
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] prbassplayer:
Don't use that since I don't know what it does. Just factory reset and format system before flashing. That's a clean flash.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ianhouser:
It's a wiping script by thederekjay (he's stopped developing, but made some pretty killer stuff for the T989). I use it and his corresponding cache wiping script (super is factory reset, cache is the caches). It does everything you'd normally do by hand, but you can queue it in front and in back of the rom and gapps. I've never had a problem with them and still use them.

That said, I don't know what the issue is, but it couldn't hurt to try different wiping methods.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] prbassplayer:
Can you link it for me to see the script?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] krazierokz:
i think he is talking about this PR http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1477955&highlight=superwipe this is pretty old and he must be using an outdated recovery for CWM unless he is talking about JAMISON904 script but its only for TW ROMS so ?????
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] me_is_rushin:
I'm no developer, but I have used that script before. TDJ stopped developing back with ICS and I believe his script was designed for GB and worked for ICS. Either way Roms and Recoveries have come a long way since then so I wouldn't recommend using something so outdated.

My $0.02
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ScumDroid:
Absolutely, The superwipe scripts are a leftover from the gingerbread days. TDJ wrote them to deal with the derpiness of CWM back then. They are completely outdated and should not be used anymore. I have even seen a few people softbrick their t 989 using the wipe scripts. I recommend promptly deleting those, and never using them again.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] krazierokz:
+1 agreed my point exactly :D stop living in the past
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ianhouser:
I've been using them without issue since ICS, but I guess I should stop. It's just so easy! Thanks for the input everyone.

Everyone keeps asking about holo. Tbh it looks stupid. And a resource hog. Who wants a constant popup on every single page of the phone? Isn't that why people have ad blockers Cuz its annoying? I could care less about that function. But just my opinion.

Just seems every page has one person asking about it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] macboy3000:
:/ I can see your point there. Though, I see halo useful for those who are serious texters and want to reply to every sms/conversation, even when he is playing a game or doing something in another app.

This is an opinion. You (the user) have the choice of whether to use halo or not, not mine. So don't let my words affect your opinion about halo. I don't want to get involved w/ any wars and such.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] n3td3v:
So looks like the only upgrade for 6.8 is the main zip of the ROM and no gapps, etc.?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tommyguns818:
Sure. As long as if everything is running smooth for you currently. Personally and recommended though I would clear cache & dalvik when coming from previous 4.2 slim nightlies. That's how I roll. It's just cleaner.:beer:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ianhouser:
Not sure if I understand you correctly, but you need to flash the 6.8 ROM and the 6.x gapps after. Always flash both together.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tommyguns818:
The wife and I are on build 6.8/stock kernel. and both of us cannot get hangouts to work properly. When we video call each other..the phone does not ring or vibrate. Even when toggled in settings. Screen on or off. Then a minute later a notification pops up and says missed call. Did toggle and non toggle gapps with fix permissions. Can anyone confirm to see if it's a problem or produce this. Other than that..... smooth as silk. Thanks guys.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ianhouser:
I have had that problem exactly. I think uninstalling the system app and installing from the play store helped. Also clearing data in google play services.

Hangouts work for me except for the no outgoing audio bug in video calls that's been present since 4.2. Does microphone audio work for you (assuming you get the calling worked out)?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] prbassplayer:
Well I can't test it right now. My network is well crap right now and I have to wait for pages to load. However I remember cm having problems with hangouts with calls. Not sure if this the same thing.

Did a clean flash of the 6.8 weekly and it's very smooth however my phone isn't going into deep sleep. I've been using greenify and wake lock detector but no apps seem to be causing it.

EDIT: fixed it by installing the Tiberius Kernel (STABLE 2.2 OFFICIAL RELEASE for AOSP 4.2.2)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] prbassplayer:
Ok tested on a better network and hangouts calls just fine between my mako and cappy so it must be the upstream problem being talked about on team chopsticks irc. I'll keep an eye on their git /review.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ianhouser:
Not sure about the battery drain. Every rom will have issues if it's configured poorly by the user- maybe you've seen some of those complaints? Anyway, it's a great rom, especially for battery life.

And yes, you definitely need the addons. I'd recommend the AIO Aroma so you can choose to exclude certain system apps you don't need. Just flash it after the rom.

Missing Battery in Status Bar

I don't know if this is ROM related - I've tried to eliminate other possibilities - but my battery icon or icon/percentage is missing from my status bar.

I've gone to Settings>Interface>Status Bar and tried all the Battery Icon Styles but nothing will show up in the status bar. The battery Bar settings work fine.

The only thing I have that may interfere was a battery plugin for DashClock (DashClock Battery Extension and BatteryDash - which has some bloat that came along with it.) I've uninstalled both and done a dirty flash to 6.6. Still no battery icon or percentage in the status bar.

I'm using Nova Launcher but I don't see anything in there that would enable or disable the battery status.

Any ideas what could be up?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] JesusWazBlack:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] dark_intel:
The bug with the phone resetting itself after taking a picture with flash is all across the roms for the 989. It is a well known problem with us but can't figure it out. Something is corrupting the kernel. Easiest way to fix is just reflash your kernel. This will happen to you again within a couple weeks/months. But again flash your kernel then wipe cache and dalvik.

A crystal ball or acting condescending is not needed in this situation :)

Thanks for the info, but yeah FCORivers is right. All too often people come to a devs thread with no info except the attitude of "your stuff made my phone screw up. fix it". Even if they don't mean it, if you're going to ask for help it's important to respect other people's time and work and do your due diligence in giving all the information with a good attitude. Speaking of which, there should be a template we can point people to when they give a crappy bug report. Anyone know of anything?
