I've been testing the 4.3 build since Saturday and so far I think it may be my dd despite the few minor bugs. I don't really use Focal, so it not working isn't a huge issue to me. A few apps do not seem to work properly, but thinking that they probably are not written to work in 4.3 yet (but will as 4.3 becomes more popular).

The critical to me apps all seem to work and the video issue seems to only occur for me if I watch video using the web browser AND change the video to run in full screen mode. I was testing streaming video in non-full screen mode from the Dolphin browser and it seems to work (watched 2 episodes of a tv show on the weekend and as long as I didn't touch the full screen button, it worked perfectly).

Thanks for the awesome work with this TheDude.

One question though: in the "about phone" section, at the very bottom there is a "SELinux Status" and mine says disabled. Is this something that should be disabled with a fresh install and is there a way to enable it or is it a kernel/ROM thing to turn it on and off?

first and foremost thank you thhdude, i have HB 4.3. running with the only problem not being able to use 3rd party keyboard, i was digging around and found these gapps so if you use them be sure to thank Ryuinferno they work great and swipe does too. i used the minimal ones...they are here....http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2387878....then i installed and set everything up then rebooted into recovery and installed cl3keners 4.3 test kernel, ( did try his newest 4.3 brought about black screen, think it has to do with code branch he has stated in his kernel thread ). may try with other roms to test but to tired tonight. ohh and rebooted several times and booted right up, even after a recovery with cache and dalvik wipe. hope this helps anyone.

[MENTION=439645]Popey[/MENTION]331 I had the black screen of death too running UBER 4.3 from 08/12. Mine was caused by my /data and /system partitions getting corrupted (couldn't even wipe them properly... thinking that the infamous super wipe would have fixed it, but I went for an e2fsck route and got them to a point where I could wipe them then reinstalled Hellybean 4.3). Going to reflash Uber 4.3 08/12 soon and see if it does the black screen of death or not again though :)

[MENTION=1529572]eleazar6[/MENTION] I am actually not running that radio but the TLMC4 radio and have not had any issues.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
Every current rom out there, weather 4.2.2 or 4.1.2 has to use the new T-Mobile or Telus radio. Been that way awhile. So devs don't mention it cause most people know by now. Or a search about signal problems now days will tell you this quickly. ;)

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] eleazar6:
I doubt your claim. Im using an older radio on my akop 4.2.2 rom without problems. Never have I flashed a ROM that requires a certain radio.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
Well....haven't used aokp in awhile.....but 4.1.2 you absolutely have to use one of those 2 new ones...

As far as 4.2.2.....cm based anyways, pretty sure after a certain cm build date.....same with them.

If I'm wrong.....I'm wrong. LOL. ;)

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sam.balia1012:
to access root in 4.3: First u have to have root in previous rom then once u flash 4.3

goto about phone--build date--tap it few times--goto developer options--root access--pick Apps and ADB

to verify open Terminal -- su

u have root

Running 4.2.2 hellybean and I've noticed the screen wake on notification, anyone know who to disable this ?

Anyway to get around TMobile's Tethering police on this ROM? Don't want to have to pay extra for it? I'm using the 4.2.2. Nice ROM!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Zarin1480:
Interesting, if not anomalous. However technically plausible your claim may be, further research is warranted. The radio installed in the latest Jellybean update included more than just a radio, and that was the "required" change. Without that, problems resulted. Perhaps you had an updated radio installed with an ODIN update, or with a KIES update, which stuck the required changes to the phone. I for one, do not know. I would be leery posting comments that might prompt unfamiliar users to ignore the common "upgrade your radio" advice without being sure of yourself.

Just my 2c.

No problems.

Appollo works great after sdcard is finished being read.

4.2.2 is what I tested. So many customizations its really a stable ROM too
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bobiscool07:
what kinda magic is that :confused:

lol, joking. even if you didn't flash the radio, a ROM you installed probably flashed it for you. Happejed to me too.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ThdDude:
Yeah that last 4.2.2 build was pretty much flawless. Hopefully in the next few days I will get an updated HB 4.3, been so busy with work this week and sick of staring at LCD's

And I think as of like the 4/23 CM10.1 builds we needed newest radio, I did not think to add to the OP, it seemed redundant to mention.

Is anybody else unable to use the gesture-typing (swipe to enter words in SMS apps or web browsers or text editors or ...)? When I swipe, I get the line indicating that it is working, it vibrates on word completion, but I get nothing sent from the keyboard to the app.

If it is just me, then it is probably a cache or file permission issue (possibly related to my /data and /system corruption).

On a sad note: my 16 GB class 10 SD card died on me, but I guess that is what I get for nabbing the cheapest one I could find. Going to be grabbing a new one today I thinks. I don't like having my nandroid on internal memory just in case I need to wipe internal. Lost my TB backups which sucks.

Have you guys had any problems with instagram with the 8/1 4.2.2? It seems I can't process any pic. The phone just crashes and reboots!

Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jeremyo83:
I had that issue on another 4.2.2 rom. I ended up going back to a backup I had of the older version and upgrading the 8/7 release.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] montezuma:
Which one is the 8/7 release?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] I opus l:
Absolutely flawless. Still running 4.2.2. I don't have one valid reason to up date to 4.3 ( except for that nagging itch that flashers get ). Do appreciate all the hard work. I'm sure I'll enjoy 4.3 when its running smooth, but man 4.2.2 is a tough act to follow. :good:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] twatts723:
4.2.2 lock screen

Don't know if you're still working on the 4.2.2 version, and I don't know how to do a logcat. But, when I set my lock screen security to "pattern" it unlocks the phone, even if I put the incorrect pattern. I set a simple, 4 dot pattern, and even if I hit the wrong dot, or the wrong pattern, it unlocks anyway. Other than that, superb my friend. Halo is great, the diablo kernel is great. Great job on this one guys.

Oh yeah, and sometimes when I snap a picture with the flash on, it reboots. One time it did it on the first pic. More recently it rebooted when I snapped three pics in a row.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bmg002:
the pattern lock I'm not sure about (and can't test... I need to have higher security for enterprise email crap).

The camera issue I've heard of before and it is often caused by a low battery I think. I believe that the flash causes the battery to report that it is lower than it is (while it charges the capacitor) and android sees the sudden drop in voltage on the battery and tries to shut down. I think if your battery is below 50% it has this issue, but I could be wrong.

I am running Hellybean 4.3 and have been having odd battery issues, but I think it was one of those "my own dumb fault" not the ROM (think a specfic live wallpaper may be causing the battery drain... testing that today and if I am wrong, may swap kernels).

Also, to do a logcat, if you have adb access, start up command prompt on your PC and navigate to the adb folder and run:

adb root

adb logcat > logcat.txt

then do what you want to be logged on your phone (I usually do it twice to be sure I am catching everything and so I can easily find it in the log) then press ctrl+c on your computer. You can skip the adb root command in most cases (I rarely use it), but depending on your logcat permissions you may need to do adb root first.

If you do not have adb access, or don't want to do it through adb, download a terminal program (terminal emulator is what I use) and run:

su

logcat > /sdcard/logcat.txt

then do what you want to be logged on your phone (again, I do it twice myself), then go back into terminal emulator and press volume down + c (this sends ctrl+c to the terminal emulator and thus stops logging). And finally copy this file from your phone to your PC so you can either review it or upload it onto xda.

the other log that is often useful is the dmsg log. To get that you just run

su

dmesg > /sdcard/dmesglog.txt

This log doesn't need the ctrl+c at the end. So you need to do whatever is not working or is causing the error (again,I do it twice) then run the command, wait for it to finish (it should be very quick), and finally copy it from your phone to your PC so you can review it or upload to xda.

Or if you have adb access, run:

adb root

adb shell dmesg > dmesglog.txt

If your phone crashes and/or reboots, then the log you want to grab is /proc/last_kmsg. That file you can just copy straight over.

EDIT:

On an unrelated note, 64 GB SDXC cards formatted as exFAT work excellent in the Android 4.3 version of this ROM. I haven't tried 4.2.2 though.

Recovery isn't happy with this card and some apps don't read/write to them properly (SD Tools is the only one that has had issues so far), but majority of the things I tested with it work excellent. It gets mounted as a fuseblk filesystem type. Awesome work [MENTION=4737483]TheDuDe.[/MENTION]

Bugs

- HALO text bubble leaves text fragments

- Cannot check Brightness slider in status bar settings.

Does the new TeamChopsticks recovery work with the t989d or just the t989?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] JesusWazBlack:
I assume it'll work with both because all the other recoveries work with both... And theyre most likely built for t989

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bmg002:
does anybody have a mirror to the recovery for 4.3? When I try to get it off of dev host, I am getting a 404 error...

I don't want to attempt doing a hellybean upgrade until I get that recovery installed... the previous version of hellybean for 4.3 seems to work perfectly for me when flashed with TWRP 2.6.0.0, but I don't want to risk a brick (hard or soft) if I can avoid it.

EDIT: don't need the mirror anymore. dev host decided to play nice with me.

If we need to go back to our 4.2 backup, will it be posible to do it using this new 4.3 recovery?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] JesusWazBlack:
delete your twrp backup if you want and just make a backup using this recovery. as far as i know there shouldnt be any problem with 4.2.2 on the new recovery
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bmg002:
one quick question about this new recovery, it is a flashable zip that we can do from recovery while being on a 4.3 ROM correct? That is, if I am currently running TWRP 2.6.0.0 with Hellybean 4.3, I can flash that "recovery-hercules-6037.zip" from TWRP 2.6.0.0 and it won't affect Hellybean or brick my phone (ie should I roll back to a 4.2.2. ROM before flashing the new recovery or anything)?

I'm paranoid after having a soft-brick last week... don't want a hard brick on my phone...

BSOD fix in TRWP

I'd been having the BSOD issue on every 4.3 rom I'd tried. Came across this post in the Paranoid Android thread - changing a formatting setting in TWRP, and it worked for me. Several reboots in and Hellybean is still going strong. Thought I'd link the post here for anyone else still having issues. Standard disclaimers apply.

4.3 app notifications

Has anyone else run into something like this on 4.3? (See screenshots attached)

I'm getting the odd app throwing a notification which cannot be dismissed, nor removed by turning off notifications in app manager. Clicking on the notification opens it in app manager, but only way I've found to remove the notification is by force stopping the app. I assume this is some sort of security feature in 4.3, but is anyone aware of a rom setting to disable this?

I'm on beanstalk 4.2.2 and I've had this issue not on just this rom but other aosp ROMs where my network will fluctuate between 3g,dc,h,h+...I'm on the current radio, anybody experience this or have suggestions?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bmg002:
2 things:

1) which radio? "Current" isn't very descriptive as we have a few 4.1.2+ radios (2 for sure last time I checked, possibly more by now)

2) to get a better response about a "Beanstalk" ROM, you may want to post that in the Beanstalk thread, not the Hellybean thread
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] radium22:
It works great for me, too! To make sure, I ran "e2fsck -yfDC0 dev/block/mmcblk0p24" and "e2fsck -yfDC0 dev/block/mmcblk0p25" after superWipe and also after TWRP wipe. I got no errors after superWipe. But errors were reported after TWRP wipe.

Also, I think this is not just a 4.3 problem. It is just easily triggered by 4.3 ROMs.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mikesincredible:
Uvmc6 to be exact.. And 2. Ha. I didn't see this was hellybean thread but I did say other aosp ROMs .
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bmg002:
I would try the TLMC4 radio if the UVMC6 raiod isn't happy on your phone. I have tried both and I found that the TLMC4 radio worked a lot better for me. Using TLMC4 I get a better signal quality and better signal strength in the area I live. Wifi isn't quite as good I find, but the mobile data is more important I believe...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mikesincredible:
True. Also where I'm at I guess..right now I'm at H..if I walk 10 steps to my right I get DC..I'll try the tlmc4...I went ahead and reflashed the uvmc6 radio, ive never needed to since it came with my phone but tried anyway..results the same...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bmg002:
That is weird... 2 different radios and multiple roms giving the same issue? Is it only with the 4.2.2 AOSP ROMs, or all AOSP ROMs? Have you tried a 4.3 ROM? Is your most recent ROM install a dirty flash or a clean flash? Did you restore data from any backup software such as titanium backup?

If it isn't any of the above, my thought would then be something in one of your configuration files (possibly build.prop)... but I'm no build.prop expert... probably something hiding in one of the persist.radio.* settings, but they don't mean much to me (eons.enabled, mem_leak_debug, nitz_*, sglte.mode_pref, snapshot_disabled, voip_enabled)... I would say do a clean flash and install no extra apps and give it a shot.

Also, what do you have your network mode set to? (settings->wireless & networks more->mobile networks). Mine was set to GSM/WCDMA preferred, I changed it to LTE/GSM/WCDMA when I set up my phone and have not had issues yet.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bmg002:
heh, well this is fun. I was reading up in the UBER thread and it sounds like that new recovery does funky things with the radio IF you plan on using the UBER kernel with any 4.3 ROM. People are reporting success flashing 4.3 Kernels using TWRP though if the ROM was flashed with TWRP, so I may have to give that a shot today (after I get my SDXC card working in TWRP 2.6.0.0). They claim that flashing the ROM with the new recovery then the kernel from TWRP causes radio issues OR if you do both from the new recovery, but if you flash a 4.3 ROM and a 4.3 Kernel from TWRP, things seem to go well.

BUT I think that TWRP doesn't wipe properly for a 4.3 Kernel/ROM with the default settings; I think you need to turn on the "use rm -rf instead of formatting" option... going to do some testing today during lunch (2.5 hours from now) and I'll post my results... I'm 2 builds behind in hellybean so I think I need to flash something soon... getting the flashaholic itch...
