Is it just me, or is the Video Recording seem zoomed in? Zooming out does not appear to work under video mode, however it does work for picture mode.

Bug?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Almite:
Yes zooming does not work for video recording, I'll add it to the known issues in OP.

There won't be any real fixes for the our device's camera video recording until CM/TeamChopsticks gets the new camera wrapper implemented and merged into the source.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sam.balia1012:
hey, great rom btw

noticed noise suppression on phone app cannot be found.

[Telephony - Noise suppression for phone calls.]
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Almite:
You should be seeing the setting for it in dialer settings, as shown in screenshots below.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sam.balia1012:
i forgot i flashed google dialer which overwrites your rom dialer

my bad
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Almite:
For those that are still using the latest build, I will most likely only update this build once more, that being when CM gets around to fixing our camera - that is finishing the camera wrapper for our device.

On another note - very soon you will be seeing a new thread by me, so if you like my work here, check out the new thread when it appears!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sam.balia1012:

Flashed last night your newest build.. Everything running smooth and no RRs.. The only thing so far I found not working which u mentioned is the video recording.. But other then that running great..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Gen00:
Are you Thinking of adding diablo kernel for this ROM?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Almite:
No, there is already a CM11 ROM with Diablo kernel - ThdDude has been doing a build with it, basically the only differences between his build and mine are the kernel and the toolchain used to compile the rom.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] JNMM:
Is there any chance this phone will get the 3.4 kernel?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] adsadsadsads:
Working great! After a few weeks of the official not getting updates I moved over to this. Great to see customizable quick settings again! And installing .apk's is such a joy, really I almost forgot :)

With 4.4 NFC emulation, has anyone got Google Wallet working on the T989?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Almite:
According to car vs driver's post here, it looks promising.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] cgibbons51:
Same as official I can't get certain videos to play In browser that do play on 4.1.2 I tried same browser and even downloading a video player no luck :/
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Almite:
I don't believe its possible yet, my next build (probably Thursday or Friday) may have the cherry-pick that enables NFC host card emulation support.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Almite:
Sounds like you may have corrupt video files? or maybe a odd video format that isn't supported anymore, I just re-checked and I'm able to play videos on my phone's SD card and also from youtube.com through the default browser.

You may want to copy those files to your PC and re-encode the videos that are giving you problems, here is a free software to do it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] cgibbons51:
Well the video's work in 4.1.2 i never tried 4.3 but don't work in 4.4 its from the browser

Running it with CWM 6.0.4.3.

Got screenshot on power menu running XposedInstaller_2.4-beta1.apk and hk.kennethso168.xposed.advancedrebootmenu_v10_348e72.apk

Ok Google works from any homescreen but it doesn't work with the screen off. Is that normal?

Is there a way to get original kitkat icons? Like for the dialer.

Everything seems to work except for the known video recording problem.

Awesome job!

Screenshot on power menu is coming in next build - last nights build has it working, but ALL audio is broken, going to build later today and see if they fixed audio.

Ok Google works the way you stated, it don't work with screen off, which is normal.

The Kitkat dialer/phone icons will be in next build, they were officially merged to CM11 source code.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] decalman:
awesome !!!!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] monkeybuttons:
"OK Google" with the screen off only works with Motorola phones using the X8 architecture. That SoC has a processor optimized and dedicated to voice recognition. Our phone (and any other without an optimized processor) would absolutely kill the battery by enabling the voice recognition with screen off.

Updated to 11-27, running very smoothly.

I installed Google Wallet (the Nexus 5 apk) and everything seems to be working! It set up my card just fine (despite living in Canada) but I haven't had a chance to actually try it in a store. Thanks a bunch for the great build.

For Canadians wondering, your Mastercard has a US zip code accessible so we can buy gas etc when in the states. You use the 3 digits from your postal code and add two zeros to get the zip code. E.g. R3P 1L4 in US zip code is 31400. That is what I used to get Google Wallet set up, but your Google Account needs to have a US address tied to it in order for Google Wallet to open. Don't try to open it by selecting your Canadian Google Account or you will need to uninstall and reinstall it to try again (it will say not available in your country). The easiest for me was to make a new account with a US address and use it only for Google Wallet.

There isn't an option for that yet, CM hasn't added/ported those from CM10.x, they do have a open commit for circle battery which might have percentage too but it was noted as WIP, I'll be watching for code changes that will allow me to add it.

Got some colors on the kitkat statusbar icon.

Running cm-11-20131128-UNOFFICIAL-hercules with CWM 6.0.4.3

Battery icon is the only icon that doesn't want to change color.

i used

XposedInstaller_2.4-beta1.apk with Xblast tools for above Android 4.0.3+ module

It also gave me the ram bar, kill button, dark halo background and i was able to change the clock font.

i was able to change the boot animation using ROM TOOL BOX apk

Gyro calibration not added, not sure if they will even merge that into cm11 source, since I recall they removed it's settings from cm10.2.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] decalman:
Thanks for the reply.

I meant the gyro calibration or orientation calibration.

One of my t989 is acting up crazy and the screen rotates when the phone is straight up.

I have it locked up but i haven't been able to find anything that can fix it.

I wonder if the orientation sensor is in the motherboard or in the screen.

Wish i could fix it.

Both my t989 are running this rom.

Just about to jump on this ROM, how's the battery life, just like CM11?

---------- Post added at 09:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:15 AM ----------

When you say I must use a jellybean radio, do I just flash it in CWM?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] grndnl:
All working smoothly except for this error when I open TIBU!

Any advice?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] adsadsadsads:
Yes it can be flashed in CWM. But if you were already running 4.2/4.3 you don't have to change anything with your radios.

Are you running with ART enabled? That is known to 'unroot' your phone. There is a fix upthread I believe, but I'm unfamiliar with it as I'm just using Dalvik until ART is stable.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] grndnl:
Negative on the ART... maybe I should try re rooting?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Almite:
Yep, it appears you don't have root, might want to check Settings > Dev Options > Root access and changing it to disabled and then back to default (apps only), you could even reboot phone, if TIBU is still not seeing phone as rooted then try rooting it again.

Oh and another thing, is TIBU actually 4.4 compatible now? do you have any other apps that have/use root access without issue?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Diumlol:
I was wondering if there was any reason why I cannot seem to copy paste emojis? =O
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] grndnl:
I will try that, and yes, tibu is 4.4 compatible. The latest update made it even play along with ART, but that's still in the process, from what I've read in the changelog.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] astonmartin214:
Why would you need to copy & paste emojis when kitkat already has emojis its in the keyboard

just noticed that i can't edit the apn that are showing up. I'm using an airvoice wireless sim and the straight talk mvno apn does show up along with many others. I can choose that apn but i can't edit it or delete the others. With that setting I'm able to get data and send sms but i cannot send mms. even though i can add a new apn i'm still not able to send mms as this problem happened before on another rom i was able to fix it by deleting the other apn that showed up and therefore eliminating the conflict on which apn is the default.

Is there a way to add the capability to edit and delete apns or is there an app that i can download that will help me? :confused:

thanks for the help
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] decalman:
i think i found the fix.

if you already tried to run google search try this

first insert a working sim card (i tried with an old sim that doesn't have a working plan and it didn't work)

go to settings>location>click on mode and select battery saving you might get a few google pop window asking if you accept to share location

hit the back button

you should see google location reporting with the on status

under recent location request you should see google search icon (click it)

it should take you to app info (you can also get here via settings>app> and swapping right to left until you see all, find google search and click it)

once there click on clear data

after its done click the home button

you should get the welcome screen

find the google search icon where you have all your apps

and now follow the setup steps and when hitting the home button you should get the google cards by swapping from left to right.

on the kitkat paronoid rom i'm able to edit the apns and i was able to send mms via the regular messaging app and via hangout as the default.

after reinstalling this rom on my other s2 i was able to send mms with the regular messaging app but not with hangout as default.

on my main s2 i wiped data on messaging app and hangout and made the messaging app the default and i was able to send one mms but it took a long time.

Best kitkat ROM out there right now!

Thanks!

There is a battery icon conflict now with gravity box. Stock battery icon will not disappear if i want to change colors.

Not really a big issue since the rom comes with a lot of tweaks.

Adding the recent ram bar would be nice.

Once the camcorder issue is resolve this would be a very difficult rom to beat.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] gregcapps:
Video recording is a cyanogenmod 11 bug. Not only on our device but also the International Galaxy Note as well according to a friend of mine. There's probably other devices suffering the bug too.

I wish WiFi calling would be added to newer Roms like this one :P
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Almite:
No sorry not likely in this rom - this is all based on CM's source repo and their code review which I pull my cherry-picks from.

But...you will be seeing a new rom from me sometime in the future (around when TC's CM11 Official Rom goes to nightlies) and I'll be including some features I want, one of which is Active Display amomg others.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Almite:
Sorry I don't use Paypal app, I haven't had any issue with any of the apps I do use though.

Is the paypal app 4.4 compatible? maybe try clearing it's data (settings > apps) and setting up again?, and/or rebooting phone.

I really suggest all to reboot phone once you have it all setup/tweaked to your liking after flashing and installing apps, I swear I get a lot better battery life then - I also fully charge phone before the reboot.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] gregcapps:
If you are referring to the official T-Mobile Wi-Fi calling, it won't ever happen. It depends on proprietary code that only exists on Samsung/touchwiz ROMs for our model.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] arusiasotto:
Misquote? And you can do wifi calling. Just setup a google voice account and use Talkatone or GrooveIP.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] gregcapps:
Yeah.... Misquote for sure. I'm fairly sure that when he made the statement about WiFi calling he was referring to native T-Mobile WiFi calling. But, yes it is possible using a third party Google play app.

Is it possible to flash this ROM with TWRP 2.6.3.0, instead of 2.6.1.0? Or is that a bad idea? Not quite sure how to download and install the old one.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Almite:
You should be fine, check your actual version number in TWRP (top right), see if it's 2.6.3.1 that is the latest, there were many having issues with boot loops after flashing 4.3+ roms using TWRP 2.6.3.0, that is why I listed to use 2.6.1.0

Just make sure you backup first and go for it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bripod:
I haven't seen a 2.6.3.1 anywhere. .0 looks like the latest. Couldn't find .1.0 anywhere. I'm on version 2.5.0.0 right now. It's been a while since my previous ROM (a 4.2.2 aosp by ptmr3) has been ridiculously stable until the past couple weeks. Now my radio doesn't like to work and couple quirky stuff elsewhere.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Almite:
You can find latest version here even though it lists 2.6.3.0 as latest it's really 2.6.3.1

If you are going to update TWRP, I'd just update to 2.6.1.0, download the .tar file and Odin (download mode) flash it, or you could search for a flashable zip.

You might want to just try flashing the radio for your device, installing another rom won't fix that type of problem, only time radio is touched is when flashing stock rom generally.

Here is links to radios for our device - Telus or T-mobile
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] decalman:
Will the Android 4.4 KitKat launcher have a backup and restore function?

I know there are launchers that i can download that have that feature but i will loose the google now functionality.

Is there an app that can backup and restore the current stock launcher?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bripod:
Thanks a lot. One more question, sorry! I found the 2.6.1.0 .zip. Can I flash that in twrp like any regular zip? That new radio seems to work much better already.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Almite:
Titanium Backup should work for the launcher.
