Ive been keeping a close eye on the temp. I am using an xposed module that puts the cpu temp in the status bar. If it goes above 110º then I lower the frequency. So far it has only got up to 109º very briefly and on only one occasion. Thank you for the tip [emoji108]
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] wvuravens-fan:
I have mine set at 2.8 max ondemand. Looking at cpu spy, it rarely go above 1242. Device is cool, and snappy. The only time it get hot is when under heavy use while plugged on. GPS navigation while driving is a good example of this. This has happened on every rom.

[MENTION=4436616]Rushing[/MENTION] looking awesome bro! Was looking for something for my daughter's S2. Think I found her new daily driver. Good to see you man. Keep up the great work.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rushing:
Thank you for the Compliment! I appreciate any feedback from you Sir! I owe a lot to you for helping me along the way. Thanks again for everything =]
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] TheProfiteer:
I must say this rom has breathed new life into my aging phone. Best Roms out for S2 have to be yours.

I tried CM, AOKP, and a myriad of all these KitKat roms, and between the sleep wake lag of CM, and the bad battery of AOKP, to the overall general sluggishness of AOSP based roms....

I must say this is a pleasant surprise. I never liked Touchwiz, but this rom is turning me into a fan.

When I move up to an S4 soon, I'll be looking for your work Rushing, thanks for conjuring up some magic.

now if only I could get active player controls on my lockscreen, I would just probably not even upgrade my phone because it will be badass enough.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Playnhooky:
can i flash this with TWRP 2.7.1 ?

I flashed this with CWMR 6.0.4.3,

Data/Factory Reset

have yet to have a problem.

Run the rom with Interactive Governor and Deadline Scheduler and it flies.

Aye De mi! The whole op =) I'm in Philippines so can no help rt now...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] spaniolo:
Hey Rushing, there is a new galaxy very similar to the s2 in form size 4.5 inch screen but with some awesome specs: kit kat 4.4.2, 16gb internal, 64gb micro Sd, 1.2 quad core snapdragon 400, 1.5 ram, Nfc, LTE, wifi calling hot spot, 2100 battery, the only downsize is camera 5 mpx but is not too bad and screen resolution jus below 720 but I compared it side by side with s5 and the difference it is not abismal. Best of all... is only $216 usd or with summer promotion I got it for $120 bucks!! You being the king of touch wiz can make this phone a beast. Or the best back up phone in the market. Is the Galaxy Avant from T-mobile.

I would love to see what you can do with it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rushing:
Sounds like a cool phone. However I'm rocking the M8 (HTC 0NE) so I can't see myself making roms for something I don't have .. and I'm no king just the last to finish his project =]. I just flashed lightspeed yesterday to the T-989 and I like it, no surprise that I'm biased haha. I'm running team Venom Viper Rom on my m8. If you want the ultimate Rom ever made for a device, then get the m8 and flash viper Rom. It has an integrated everything with every tweak I could ever want...the stock Rom is great but they did such an amazing job I donated and don't even need to flash anything but updates... There is no comparison even the nexus four I have is no match for the incredible. So that's where I am.. totally content.. However the itch to make an occasional new Rom does happen and I'm thinking about only one small update which would be to make the status bar power button invisible... But as it is it doesn't bug it just reminds me that it's there. Anyway thanks for the compliment =)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
After an X and an N5...i have the M8 too. Lol

And does anyone not use Viper? It's quite the project. ?

Tho you know I'm on board for a Shadow Sense ROM. ?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rushing:
Thanks, but I couldn't improve it much. I did make an invisible power button on the M8'$ status bar though =) to maintain all the functions I'd have to make a personal systemui.apk to add that in using team venoms as a base. I couldn't post it but I could make one =) and share with friends.. Also I still haven't dug in deep enough to figure out where the stock theme engine lies. I wanted to make the themes a little more my-sense .. maybe some slight visual improvements could be made. I do have sense Rom but for Verizon... I'm not even sure if it would work for other carriers. And it's old firmware-Based so probably not good any more. Yeah the good old days are gone and the better days are here, rejoice ⊙]
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rushing:
Reflash. Use the SM v 1.2.3 version it has the radio and recovery. So reflash it...and I never used wipes and I never use anything other than twrp2.6.0 ,Not any version thereafter.

I suggest merely dl'ing it and flashing it twice. Reason cause you would be on 2.6.0 recovery and have the correct radio. All should be perfect. Let me know here or pm we will get you going. Also flash kl3keners kernel for whatever reason some devices like it. I have a feeling that it simply has to do with wipes... Lmk

Going to redo the wipes in meta inf

For a better wipe before flash..

Also why I'm redoing it is cause I added KitKat sounds and blacked the blue bars.. Lot of work I did last night.

It is sick and def the superior ROM for our device that I have made. This next one is like tw meets custom meets plain google. Super fried Sweet stuff

Hope I don't die before I release it lol.

So u did listen :eek::thumbup::p:D:beer:;):) [MENTION=4436616]Rushing[/MENTION]
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rushing:
I surely do listen.

I ve learned a lot from listening well reading =] ... I don t know hardly anything about porting but I am sure I could if I just had a little bit of google to help..

and I almost brough back the complete stock look but after flashing a stock system Ui mine looked way better the google icons are themed for my ROM and the TW icons make it look like Frankenstein. Id have to redo a lot... so I did drop that jazz, but making the kernel into ROM I totally agree...

as for the Chameleon: rom I still haven't dloded it yet so I don't know what I can do with it. I am sure it can be ported over.. unfortunately I have no experience porting but hey why not change that,

should be easy since its on our device kin already. and google says Ill help ya =]

this next one I was going on line to upload it and checked this thread first but uploading Now.

anyone have any modern porting guides.. didn't check Kl3keners guides maybe one in there would work for Chameleon port

Battery life?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rushing:
is great for sure.. I have the ROm very light and no battery suckers included. updating soon though if you want to wait but really why not just try them all right? but I think by the end of tonight I will have skipped 2.3.4 and be releasing 3.4.5. which is sick... way better than anything weve had as far as ugly is gone and annoying is absent.

ugly= blue headerbars

annoying is water drop noise.. cant loose man, cant loose.

going to bust open seccontacts to get the water drop out of the dialer b4 i let her go though so be a minute after I finish milking the pigs or whatever I was going to do =]
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] 13~BigBear~13:
So your next update will be tonight?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] blfolson:
Yeah that where I'm at (the 25% boot screen) so not happy it where your at too but glad I'm not alone....lol I started with 2.6 the tried 2.6.3 and 2.5 all the same. I tried the kernal seperate and still no go. tomorrow I plan on putting the stock recovery back on and wip with that then reroot per Rushing's suggestion. Hopefully that will cure it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rushing:
. I dont understand why it never fails for me and never flashes for others?

if you havent tried the infamous wipes give it a go it on ly takes a second. but if all else fails then by all means flash stock and wipe cache and data factory reset wipe with stock recovery... hmm I bet I could throw that Stock recovery.img in place of twrp ... so you then you would flash the .zip and then if no boot then have to wipe in recovery and then

I just fixed the symlinks in the meta inf to include the .apk and its .odex counterpart ... gee that was a blast.

so anyway I have decided to give it the full Rushing technique that only had been done to the S4 thjat I have. you will see what I mean. everything is different now its not stock any longer but you will like this trust me.

SHADOW MASTERY 33

So many changes..

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
Multi window has never worked on t989 touchwiz. I think the reference to it in settings must be for newer devices. Samsung was too lazy to take it out of ours.

Boot loops

I tried all the things that were suggested because, I too, had the never ending boot loops. I returned to stock with Odin, rerooted, and formatted and reset everything and still had boot loops. I even tried a dirty install over Shadow 1000 just for yuks.

Bottom line after returning to stock again thru Odin and rooted, I used Infamous Wipes and then installed Shadow Mastery 33 and still got the boot loop. I went back into TWRP and installed Tiberius-TouchWiz-2.4-LINARO-Hercules.zip and, surprise, it works.

I hope this helps others with the boot loop problem. I don't know what it is that could be about the kernel that my phone doesn't like, but it solved the problem for me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Jyjieng11:
Hey this ROM is amazing but there is one visual item that is bugging me. Is anyone else getting this weird visual of the signal on the status bar? Mine doesnt show the up and down arrows for the signal and is not a steady icon even with full bars like it will keep flashing between 2 sets of signals it looks like? Can someone help me? Thank you in advance.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rushing:
LoL and I thought I was picky... and I am so I made a new systemui.apk that has the icon fix... and you guys were right it did jump around from time to time. But that is how google made it and that is why samsung changed it with their TouchWiz... looks better than tw cause I left the arrow when active as white .. might grey them out as they stand out a lot being pure white when everything around it is grey text.

anyhow Dr. got your fix...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Jyjieng11:
I am sorry I did not mean to be picky. I was just saying that there was a slight bug I guess? I mean in no way am I complaining because this ROM is amazing. I just wanted you to be aware of this bug thats all. I am sorry if I came off being picky. Thank you for the fix you though :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rushing:
That is part of development.. some things are hard to see when you made it so actually hearing it from a couple people made me see the flaws. best thing a bout it is I found a feature of gimp that I wasnt using and now editing just got that much easier... so benefited everyone beside If you think that lasts nights efforts untill 5am didnt make an impact themewise.,, consider I did it again =] will post later this ROM..

still a work inprogress but changed the dialer or fixed it

transparent icons for internet messaging contacts phone

fixed/themed the power off screen

as mentioned earlier,,, fixed the jumping 3g in/ out icons themed the tw icons.. could never figure out how to theme them before yesterday =] now mysteries have been solved..

OP, I did a full wipe (everything except SD cards) and loaded the 33 build. When I got to the first screen to select language, I got FC on phone process. Then when I clicked Start, I got FC on Samsung touchwiz. So it went back to the first screen again. I wasn't able to get out of this loop. I full wiped and flashed again but still got the same problem. Any suggestions? Phone was on a 4.4 Rom. Thanks!

Accidental thanks. lol

This has all been covered in other threads. Lol your interpretation of the pentagram is one of many. There's other meanings for it. Read up. And if you don't like it...again, use a different rom. And really...warn people about it? Are you scarred for life? Lol

You saw it...did not care for it...so flash something else and move on. Roms are all about taste and preference. Don't try to push your opinions on others. They can decide for themselves.

Buh bye. :)

OK users, take a breath and relax, also, take personal opinions to a social media site, this here site is about development and developers, trolling comments, especially ones about religion or politics have no place here at XDA.

Lets be respectful of each other, if there is something you do not like, maybe a polite PM to the OP about it would be more appropriate?

Final warning in here folks...follow the XDA posting rules or log off.

try the Infamous cache wipes first.. then flash ROM ... if no go then return to stock via Odin then wipe in stock recovery cache and factory reset / data then reboot and then flash 2.6.0 TWRP recovery in Odin.

should be a clean slate to flash.

I am thinking some kernels be them 4.2 -4.4 are leaving behing remnants that twrp is not wiping.

maybe a kernel cleanser would be appropriate before install if coming from another type of kernel or perhaps anything other than stock.. My kernel though it has may additions is still stock at the heart of it all..

hey all I have some additions and changes made.

same wallpaper hehe but changed the toggles apk. wifi hot spot is called Hotspot again.. and this actually happened before, I mean right before I read those disturbing posts about dead kittens...

absolutley no dead kitties allowed. for the record there as of now and late are no upside down stars.. all have been removed. actually replaced for better Icons. I used a kitkat icon for the settings button on the pull down toggle. anyway this ROM has had a complete overhaul. it is now girl friendly, especially friendly to girls I mean, and totally unbiased.

kitkat sounds are in the ROM for touch and plenty other sounds

I am very happy to release SHADOW MASTER 44 very soon... very very soon ...

Kernel in 44 giving a lot of bootloops
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rushing:
Hmmm lots of non booters hmm. Its always booted up for me. Dont know why that is..

So when you report a Bootloop let me know what kernel you were running.

Might just need to flash it twice in a row or flash back to stock. Once you're in, you can dirty flash the updates.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] visualist6x6:
I've run your kernel after a clean install and it would boot loop about 1/3 to 1/2 the way on the Shadow screen. Usually, the third reboot, the screen goes black and stays that way (I left it for more than 10 minutes just to be sure).

I tried both of the other kernels you have with the same result, however, the Tiberius kernel clears it up immediately.

If there's anything I could do to help clarify, let me know.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
I dirty flashed from 2.2 version and all is well. Love the subtle changes. :)

No boot loops here.

Hey Rushing,

Since changing to your ROM, i've not been able to run most of the USSD codes I use to tweak my network settings, *#2263# especially. I'm on Mobilicity network and it naturally takes ages for the phone to register on the network, but with changing the preferred network to WCDMA 1700 preferred, it's much quicker.

Anytime I run the code nothing happens as against showing up a hidden menu for Network settings. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Daysey
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rushing:
were you on touchwiz before?

here is this settings/more settings/mobile networks/Network mode is that good?

not my specialty =]

I have a new release ... this one is Identical to #44 it is #55 only difference is the meta-inf and a few build.prop edits to see if this will ensure the ROM to flash correctly

hopefully this fixes the bootloop problema few people experienced..

I never saw a bootloop with this ROM kernel combo but I decided to try and fix it for those who cant boot it up.. for those who dont want to take the time to go back to stock for a moment to wipe in stock recovery.

SHADOWMASTER_55 please give it a go and report back if it works for you, I flashed it just fine but thatt is me haha. my phone is trained to flash it and boot no matter what apparently

also returning to stock via odin and wiping under recovery then flash the ROM should work.. this is stock stuff its meant for your phone precisely just dont even comprehend how it doesnt werk for some yet its fine for others except the dirty part that needs to be cleaned so it can be flashed properly.. looking up kernel cleanser now...

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Aahz Pervect:
All is well with 55.

I dirty flashed 55 over 44 which was dirty flashed over 33 (I need to do a clean one I know).

It sucks that people are having flashing issues. I've found it best to preemptively have the exact version of recovery and radio as the ROM requires you to flash before-hand with a reboot between each and before flashing said ROM.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Playnhooky:
I've had issues flashing and boot loop . I'm coming from a non touchwiz rom , I reboot into recovery and flash infamous super wipe and cashe wipe , flash your rom and today it got stuck at the boot animation . I re wiped and flashed your rom twice , it booted up and was working then 20 mins. Later it had a reboot during Facebook and got stuck at the boot animation again , I had to flash a different rom to use the phone today. I'm gonna try 55 and see if it fixes the problem . I REALLY like this rom , great look , I sure hope it works !
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] daysey:
Yes, I was on touchwiz before and I combine the USSD code with the Network mode change in settings. It's not a big deal just that it takes time to register on the network if I reboot. I'd rather be on this ROM than change it because of that. ;)

Thanks.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] visualist6x6:
Thanks Rushing for all your work. I've been on your ROMS for quite a while and never wavered from TW ROMs simply because of the Wifi calling. In fact, Shadow 1000 was my go-to ROM until you began Shadow Mastery. That's why I thought it so crazy that I was getting boot loops.

The sum total of my ability to troubleshoot this is to try the Tiberius kernel.:cyclops:

My developing skills are less than zero! :silly:

I'm getting ready to install 55 to see what happens. . . It's backup time!
