Thanks for the info! I am Telus....no wifi calling here....and my reception sucks with any in my small town. LOL. Even the wife's iPhone. So we use Voxer a lot.....uses wifi at home....so radio signal not an issue.

I'd get an s4 for sure.....but it would be out of my budget range. Bang for the Buck....like nexus 7, the N4 is a nice deal. ;)

Oh....sorry for the off topic. Lol

Sent from my cellular telephone
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rushing:
Not sorry haha.. well then if signal is not an issue an wifi calling is null then N4 all the way. its future proofed. quad cored. solid phone. heavier than the s2 and s4 which I like. I also like the lightness of the s4 so I guess weight doesnt matter if you can lift a beer then you can handle your phone for a few hours lol

back on topic: ?? what was the topic again? oh yeah shadow.. that rom sucks! but its a good alternative to stock without the waterdrop noises and the nature tunes and pink apps
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] stevew84:
So whats up with this new version as opposed to the last Final build, the 9/10 one?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rushing:
Well I thought I fixed the build .prop which was not allowing other than gmail email connections. If its not fixed then fix it.

This is your final from me I dont use secemail so it does not affect me.

Is there any mayor difference between #999 and #666?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] stlouisblues:
Can anyone tell me if the sleep toggle was added to the final build? One last thanks to you Rushing for all your time and efforts. Peace out...see ya on the S4 forums in the near future.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rushing:
No. Cool see you there.

Yes

The settings app is themed on 666 is stock on 999
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jasew503:
Yeah, the updated version of the rom seems to work much better than the last..

ONE QUESTION: Can we ever do without all the Pentagram-garbage and all the Anti-Christ/Anarchist-wannabe hacker logos? I understand your a strong supporter of hipster-co-ops, communism, organic backyard grow-ops, anarchy and all, but for the time being can we ever get rid of the logos? not everyone worships that stuff, and some of us still pay taxes. Not fair to force your religion on us.

EDIT: DONT HATE: Just being honest, as he is.. Right?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Aahz Pervect:
Um...the stock version is for people who don't like/want the pentagram stuff. There are a few things left here and there of Rushing's theme customizations but not much. If someone wants it completely gone then they need to theme the files themselves or just use a different ROM altogether.

If you really disapprove of/disagree with Rushing's theme choices so vehemently then why even use this ROM in the first place as there are plenty of Stock-ish 4.1.2 TouchWiz ROMs here?

edit: I just dug-through my phone since I'm on Stock 999 and there are a whopping two pentagrams: One before the boot animation and one to replace the settings icon in the pulldown. That's a really low number of things to replace if someone really is offended by them.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] yassir5505:
Love the stock version of ROM its definetly the best 4.1.2 JB ROM for the T-Mobile Galaxy S2 , but I agree I think the "star" symbols should be removed.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
Guys, its his rom....built for him. And like most devs, he's sharing his hard work. He isn't being paid to do it....its a hobby.

If you don't like it, don't use it. Its pretty simple.

How about you go read one of the many guides around and build your own rom. But if you decide to share it.....better ask everyone what they do and don't like first....so you don't offend them with something you originally built for yourself.

These devs on here owe us absolutely nothing....yet the complaining never ends. ;)

Now I'm gonna build and share a rom where all the icons are demons eating babies!!

Who's in??

Sent from my cellular telephone
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rushing:
Im in as long as they are baby kitties. Otherwise it would be demons eating demons and that is just too much.

Ps don't try and take your device to church running this Rom I've Been told by a guy that his phone started talking in tounge and spitting acid.

Actually you who have questions about pentagrams should google the pentagram, its not a bad image at all.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
Actually its gonna be baby kittens eating human babies!! Gonna have to be huge icons tho so the gorey detail can be seen good! ;)

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rushing:
SO just to lighten things up a little, I have tried to alter apks for the s4 and only a few are not rebuilding like the major ones such as systemui and framework-res.apk which means I will either find a way to rebuild them perhaps in linux or I will likely keep altering the S2 apks. cause its what i like to do for a little while in the evening and early morning. this means I might come up with something good enough to share, and it might not even be full of pentagrams!!! though there is nothing evil about a pentagram I realize we still live in a time where people are scared of things they dont understand. and yes I made those ROMs for me but a few of them like #999 were just for you guys. anyway I realize that there is more to a device than having it full of powerful symbols. thats why the next version if there is one will have my face as a popular icon. you push my face and settings opens up. you push my face and wifi turns on. see the pattern here.. lol so there is maybe a boredome ROM that might surface .

who knows perhaps I already have one
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] blfolson:
I just appreciated the ROM themed or not.

I would like to point out that from hundreds now using this ROM only 1.5 are commenting about the theme.

I would hate for that 1.5 to over shadow the hundreds, but hey that seems to be the sign of the time. the few are louder then the many.

I don't believe in Greek gods either but i still where Nike shoes.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mon5trum:
I think it's kinda funny how the whole pentagram thing came about any it means different things in different cultures just like the swastika and the peace symbol! But anyways if you don't like you can always just decompile the system ui apk and change all the images you don't like!

By the way not hating just stating!

So, Does this rom support BLN from the get go? I can flash this rom, install my BLN app and be good to go?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jason4962:
Stock no. You have to flash tiberius kernel for bln. On the other note. Are you able to change colours on the leds. Its all white for me :confused:

Just wondering...

Was there ever a version uploaded without the pentagrams? Looking to flash this for ma dukes and I KNOW she'd not be kosher with the pentagrams. Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
Anyone doing something for someone else's phone should just flash stock for them. And if they want to mess with custom roms and stuff, let them read, learn and do it themselves. Then you aren't responsible if something goes very wrong. Also, are they gonna flash updates, trouble shoot issues and things like that? Probably not. So give them an unrooted stock o/s. Way less hassles for everyone.

Just my 2 cents.

Is TWRP 2.6.0.0 recovery included?

After installing shadow 666 few days ago I noticed my TWRP was reverted back to 2.6.0.0. I am just wondering if TWRP is included in this rom.

Or has someone seen this phenomenon?

Thanks

By the way, I like this rom, fast, stable and debloated as described.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] meekrawb:
The thread title says [ROM][RADIO][RECOVERY].

So yes, it replaces your recovery(and radio) every time you flash it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ghajj:
Ah, pay attention to labels. Lesson learned.

Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] meekrawb:
It is easy to miss. Especially if you are using the app.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rushing:
I will update the rom one day with a new recovery and a version when available is better.. without a recovery radio but till then just know that i chose 2.6 because it works all around the board, Ive flashed with it hundreds of time not a single glitch. It enables immunity to a few bugs that 4.1.2 touch wiz has. And i give you guys the same i use. It just works best for me you can always remove some lines in meta inf and the recovery.img rezip and flash. Or simply reflash your fav recovery before you flash your next rom if you feel its needed. So i have an idea im going to have a good vote later.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Bruce lee roy:
Appreciate the advice. Problem is, I hate t-mobile bloat... In fact, I can't even stand tw. But as long as snote (my phone) and wifi calling remain proprietary, I'm doomed to be connected to the two. I've tried removing the bloat manually but later ran into issues and I'm currently trying out debloated stock. In all, this appears to be the best of both worlds atm but the pentagrams keep it just out of reach. Thanks anyways though.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rushing:
Just what you want is a vote away. Yeah I have made a sweet ROM yes there are pentagrams init, init one word, and yes everything is possible. So vote by way of thanks on this post for ShadowROM but more stock less dark. So to get stock look with Shadow speed vote by thanking this post..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rushing:
And vote here by way of thanks if you want a darker theme...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jason4962:
Pretty sure 1.3 or 1.4 is pen free. I myself dont care what rushing puts on here. Just download theme from playstore .
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Aahz Pervect:
I like the current setup where there's a stock themed version and a customized version. If anything I'd want the stock one completely stock and the themed one even crazier.:D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rushing:
Stock won, barely and it wasnt a very long voting period so If I check back and and the darker side has won then I will post another ROM.

Stock Version Finalized

Shadow#1000.zip

I was reading about what some people think about xda's 'devs' and 'chefs' like me, chef... they think that we are getting rich hahaha from all the downloads and donations and such. I must be on the wrong boat =] I get nothing for downloads except I have gotten some really nice donations which kept my phone alive and the building of ROMs possible. I could make a short list of those who have donated to me PM me if you so wish to be included, I always value privacy that is why I chose Rushing as my 007 ...

so a simple 'Thank You' or 'Thanks', just might encourage me or any other dev or chef to make another one, Rom or Kernel, Mod ,Theme, Hack and keep the builds building.

re: dirty flash shadow #1000

@ Rushing:

Dirty flash Shadow #1000? Or, just wipe and start fresh? If I have to start fresh, it's hardly an issue.

Lemme know.

"Tanks." <Bugs Bunny tone>
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rushing:
Dirty is ok if coming from shadow 1.4 and above.

If there are any problems at all then wipe clean and reflash.

Actually I had to wipe my /data/ (toggles were gone) but I was coming from another rom I made.

Oh yea, the Shadow#1000 is without radio or recovery.

Will update op soon
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] troby86:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Aahz Pervect:
Just did a dirty flash and got stuck at the initial logo (kernel logo correct?). I'm sure that somewhere between using TWRP 2.6.3.0 and my customizations that it was my fault.

Either way, I just held down power until it shut off, turned it back on, and it booted up just fine. So if anyone else has that happen try that first before doing a clean install. :good:

Such a rad ROM Rushing.:good:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rushing:
It seems like the same guy posting over and over, though is likely not. .. still same complaints theme is awful its all a kang of tw of cm blah blah..

I just wanted more of the DarkSide ROMs ( remember 2.3.6 ?) and when thederekjay left our forum I felt like keeping the DarkSide alive for him, but really 4 me... But that is why I started building.

And that is why I chose a dark name like Shadow. And the pentagrams are what I wished he had done. Or similar as we are all different. . .

So in a way this ROM is a tribute to the DarkSide.

Long Live the DarkSide
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rushing:
I have a new thread =] show up and support it if you have a SGS4 then by all means flash it too =]

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Omnicide:
Yes I'm with you there, I still flash 2.7 ever so often just because. Does suck doing so because I have to put Clockwork back on so the mods work.

I say upload the apk I'd use it but you could leave it up to the user to deside.

Thanks, also I do have a question. Is you long flash really req.? I haven't done it and your ROMs seem to run just fine for me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rushing:
Its required if you're having problems only. But it is required if one wants to go on about something not working. Because that guide will will fix any problem. I've had my phone do some strange and that order of operations fixed it perfect. So no and yes .

I'm glad people are liking shadow even if it is stocky. Its still got a little shade to it.

here is where that app is
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jr_718:
Possible linaro version?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rushing:
Linaro toolchain... well I am just pushing a stock kernel here with no optimizations... Cl3Kener has the kernels you might want. he is fully dedicated to the building of kernels and I would say he is our kernel goto guy.

Bet you already knew that =]

i have read that the optimization is minimal if any for a stock kernel but I think Cl3Kener is using it for his superkernels so there may be a significant difference there.

or perhaps I am in the dark about the stock and Linaro tool chain built upgrade.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Aahz Pervect:
Oh I didn't realize that the kernel was stock without optimizations. In that case the people who really just can't handle that one last pentagram on boot can simply flash this file in recovery.

Now we just need a super demented version of SHADOW to balance things out. ;)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jr_718:
Without doubt he is good..highly respected developer. ..Hey cl3kener thanks for all you give and do..its alot you give to the community all your hard work is highly appreciated thank you. ..it just sadden me I might be moving to Verizon when the note 3 comes out..might not see you there..

Rushing and every other developers out there who have given us, I say thank you..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rushing:
Yeah I forgot about the boot image hah hah I see that image and mathematics is all I see. The golden mean the equation for perfect proportion and even more.

So i was bored and i found out for my device the bootloop after battery pull is kernel related.

What i did was brand new install of rom and battery pull . it would hang on boot. Reflash and flash rom.and flash another kernel i flashed tiberius and it boot right up . This may be for my device only. Try at your own risk
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rushing:
Ive decided to remove the extensive flash instructions thanks for your input

and by the simple fact that you entered recovery and rebooted from recovery is what likely did the trick.. I know

this cause that was how I used to fix the problem before I learned all the other tricks that i once include in the OP.

on the other hand its a great kernel so a win win equation =]

anybody interested in an Odin flashable ROM deodexed rooted + toggles that is how I am serving it up.

Odin is safer than any other flash lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jason4962:
Boot into recovery didnt do the trick for me. i had went in to wipe caches. thats a no go. use super wipe. Super cache.wipe. no.go. then a fresh flash plus tiberius did the trick. i just pull thr battery out in the middle of a game and it booted right up . Again this could be my device only.

meaning if you dont want wifi calling then aosp and cm variants are a great choice

hey I am going to update this old ROM soon .. old lol well cause I learned where that drip in the dialer is finally hah.

welll I found it in my s4 casue I had to change the dialer around so I bet it is in the same place which is is in contacts app...

I couldnt believe it I have looked in system ui framework-res twframework the phone.apk itself and never the contacts.,.,

well samSUng I learn your trick and I share with everyone... its probably no trick they really don't expect [or care] if people are breaking down their precious apks and manipulating them =]
