now i'm trying to get my calender settings back as everything from backup likegames apps call log sms working great except calender hope will manage to get it back :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NoSpamDan:
Not sure what you mean about calendar settings. It all depends on what ROM version you are coming from when restoring data.

In general, I would not recommend restoring any system apps or system data though.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Bullz:
Hello there calendar data and contacts I have lot of reminders for the full year in calendar app in jellybean which i have sync with my google account.

when u re sync only contacts getting back not the calendar stuff, I disabled insecure apps settings in mail n tried back but calendar shows nothing any help about this :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NoSpamDan:
Are the calendar events showing up if you use a web browser? It sounds like they might not actually be synced. If not, you might need to either re-sync them from your restored jelly bean backup (you did make a nandroid backup, right?), or recreate then manually...

You might try deleting your Google account from the phone and re-adding it. You won't lose anything.

You could also try installing the Google calendar app to test.

Hope this helps!

EDIT: Check your calendar settings to see if your account is selected to sync (calendars to display). Try logging into the Google Calendar page. Also you can try forcing a manual sync using the Google instructions here.

Should I avoid using WildKernel? I'm a little hesitant to flash it because it hasn't been updated in 2 months.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NoSpamDan:
Will probably be OK. I'd make a nandroid first. If it falls, either reflash the ROM or restore your nandroid.

Also beware of setting the minimum CPU freq too low and causing reboots or other weird behavior. 384 MHz is the stock default, but depending on governor, 192 MHz is the stock minimum.

Either way, please no support requests here if using third party kernels.

Cheers!

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NoSpamDan:
I don't have the Herc, but what radio are you using? Maybe some other Hercules users can advise/confirm. The old ICS radios may not work properly with JellyBean and after code, so I think you should try to reflash your radio.

See Post 2 for a link to flashable radios for the SGH-T989.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NoSpamDan:
You're the only one to report this... What ROM version, GApps, etc?

I would try with a different recovery like PhilZ touch recovery or TWRP. FULL WIPE /data, /system, /cache and /dalvik and install only the ROM, no GApps.

If it still happens, reboot to recovery, mount USB storage, and backup your files from your internal storage to your computer. Then try to format internal storage in recovery and see where you get.

Help

[MENTION=4435460]NoSpamDan[/MENTION]

I like this rom, but ... just install some apps and sends me a message that there is not enough space when I have 1.3gb of free storage,

2. I can not move apps to the internal memory.

3. I can not download and install apps from the market due to insufficient memory.

I'm using the build9 from clean install with cwm and all wipes.

Is there a solution?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NoSpamDan:
What ROM are you coming from before this?

What version of GApps?

What version of cwm are you using (link if possible)? Are you sure it's KitKat compatible?

The Play Store insufficient memory issue sounds like an old bug, if I recall correctly it was more prevalent in the Ice Cream Sandwich days and carried over to JellyBean.

What's the error code it gives you?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Orionpax5000:
1. I come from the sultanxda rom cm11

2. Normal version gapps

3. cwm 6.0.5.3, the automatically installed "cm installer"

4. the play store does not give me a number of errors, just jumps me a message: the storage space is not enough.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NoSpamDan:
You can try removing your Google account, clear Play Store data, reboot then re-add your Google account again.

Hercules SlimLP Alpha

OK, folks, here's a test build of SlimLP for the Hercules to determine where everything is at. I need to confirm core features, including boot, since I don't have the Hercules.

I'm looking for some folks to provide feedback on this, regarding whether it even boots, as well as the "Needs testing" items below. Please use Pastebin and link to the logcats here. If enough features are working, I'll create a new thread to get moving forward with this. ;)

Are you using the new Android 5.0.2 SlimLP ROM that I just shared here for testing purposes? The logs you linked are for completely different ROMs and kernels.

If you are indeed running my test SlimLP 5.0.2 ROM, then you need to attach or use Pastebin to upload the last_kmsg and logcat if possible from

this

ROM, showing the issue, and provide recovery version used please.

Herez the last_kmsg that u wanted ....plz fix my issue with faulty soft nav keys ...and give me a kernel only update.zip or a patch (not complete rom) if possible...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NoSpamDan:
Development on SlimKat is over. I have no KitKat sources any longer, and have been working on Lollipop exclusively.

You didn't provide recovery version info.

The soft nav keys should work on SlimKat (this thread)... I haven't seen any complaints about this.

If this is a SlimLP log, and you are actually running my SlimLP ROM, then this belongs in the SlimLP Hercules thread.

SlimLP soft Nav keys should come eventually, but it's very low priority and you need to wait. There are bigger problems to deal with right now like mobile data functionality.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NoSpamDan:
OK, here's a new test build using the Moretz kernel as a base, but without over-clocking or under-volting enabled to enhance stability. These changes have been pushed to my Bitbucket, and the kernel has been forked to Slim's repos. It's still in transition, and device dependencies haven't been updated yet, but I wanted to share and request some good feedback as I've seen here already... ;)

ROM: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23578570567715454

I would recommend mini/normal/full beta GApps from the Slim beta add ons download area. I think v162 is the most recently updated version.

For control of sweep-to-wake, fast charge, and CPU freq/governor control, I'd recommend [ROOT] Kernel Tweaker from the Play store.

Please report any "clean-flashed" bugs here, preferably with a Slim bugreport if applicable... and make sure you have a good nandroid backup before flashing!

Thanks and Enjoy!

Thanks for flagging that!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] HipHopAnonymous3:
Ya, it's strange. I noticed it on the stock messaging app in all kitkat builds thus far. If wifi is connected, data is turned off, and I attempt to send a picture text, it hangs at sending. Mobile data isn't toggled on. When I turn mobile data on, with wifi still connected, sending is hit or miss. Sometime it sends right away, sometimes it doesn't, and sometimes it can take hours to receive it. It's like it thinks it can send over wifi, and it can't... The only way I've found to get them to send properly is to disable wifi, enable data, then send. Anyone else having this issue?

Anyway, didn't fiddle with APN settings as mobile data functions properly in all other ways. But T-Mobile US LTE (fast.t-mobile.com) is selected with MMSC setting at http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc, MCC at 310 MNC at 260 and APN type at default,supl,mms.I can try running a logcat if you think that'd help.

Downloading new build now, will post any findings

Update:

Logcat/bugreport of MMS bug in new build attached. Ran new build for a while, successfully changed governor and scheduler using Kernel tweaker. Everything running smooth. Checked default APN settings after install and it was set to MetroPCS LTE, which was weird, so changed back to T-Mobile US LTE, but messaging app still not toggling data to send pics.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NoSpamDan:
Still seems like it could be an APN issue to me, especially where your mobile data is working. I have tested on the Skyrocket and both MMS and MMS with embedded images works without any problem.

Anyone else experience the same problem with this ROM?

The T-Mobile support site lists the below APN settings for T-Mobile US LTE. The MMS protocol and APN type entries are of particular interest to me... I'd like to rule the APN out by creating a new one with all of the below settings:

When you're done creating it, don't forget to click Menu > Save. Then select the radio button for this new APN in the list, toggle Airplane mode On/Off and try again.

Thanks

EDIT: Also, thanks for the logs!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] HipHopAnonymous3:
You can rule out APN settings. Tried this setup, with the same results. Found a workaround by installing chomp sms and setting the options to toggle data for MMS. Thanks for taking the time to look into it man.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NoSpamDan:
OK, but you are manually disabling mobile data? Not sure what the toggling thing is, sorry.

If normal texts are going through, I think that's technically SMS, where with an attachment like photos, the message gets sent as an MMS due to the size.

From what I remember, the connection used for phone calls and basic message data (< 160 characters text only) is separate from the mobile data part, the layer of which is needed for photo attachments and MMS. So you should still be able to send a normal text message with your mobile data disabled... I think ;)

Can you receive MMS photos OK?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] HipHopAnonymous3:
Correct, while connected to wifi I have mobile data disabled. But to receive/send pictures through text (MMS), mobile data must be enabled. In pre-kitkat roms mobile data was toggled (turned on during message delivery, then turned back off) when a MMS message was sent/received. Basic texts (SMS) function fine regardless of mobile data.

Every current ROM's stock messaging app hasn't toggled mobile data for MMS properly. When connected to wifi with mobile data off, mobile data remains off and outgoing picture message gets stuck in "Sending" state. Even when mobile data is on, if I'm connected to wifi, sending/receiving MMS photos can sometimes take hours. It's like it's default is to deliver MMS messages over wifi, which (to my knowledge) isn't possible with t-mobile.

so the last thing I'm posting tonight is battery drain is ****ty in this kernel...I have to put max kernel cpu at 7.2 Mhz (or whatever is close, F you I'm not walking to my phone)....on Wildkernel v6 I can set it at 96/135 MHz and turn on Wifi AP w/ no problem.....I MUST SET 720000 or else my battery dies...this is unacceptable...I use my phone as my primary source for internet...so the kernel you chose needs to be "leaned" out UV wise
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NoSpamDan:
Don't use WiFi AP much here, and if I do, it's with the phone plugged in.

Clean flash, no gapps, no apps, no restored Play Store or Titanium Backup crap, nothing. Leave the defaults (e.g. no ART). Still do it? Get a Slim Bugreport

Use the previous build I posted here with the CM (old) kernel, no restored anything. Same behavior? Grab another Bugreport.

Don't care about Wildkernel, and those numbers don't make sense.

You can set UnderClocking (UC) in both the CM and Moretz ROM versions, but not UnderVolting (UV). There have been some Random Reboots with minimum CPU set below 384MHz, that's why the default is that. 192Mhz is the CPU minimum, same as CM11.

The phone reboots or shuts off? What does this mean exactly? That's the MAX CPU? Why would you set it so low?

I don't know why you would have to jack up the CPU to get better battery use, but maybe there's an issue with the WiFi AP stuff, don't know.

Who the what? If I try hard I think I can sort of make this out. You might try to at least get what you want to say strait as far as units. ie: GHz/MHz and 1.7/17000.00 etc...

Sounds like you need a hotspot not a phone. The stock specs alone far far exceed your needs and , plainly, was never designed for that. It's a phone, first and foremost. I personally would never have even have thought to config a kernel for such silliness and or for one dysfunctional purpose. get real.

Second, if any Dev creates something and decides to share, it's extremely poor form to offer anything that hasn't been asked for. Logs etc... AND, what's worse, to name other works in a non relevant thread in a completely off topic comment. :p

To answer your question, I've ran 6.4 for a couple days without any rrs and not many problems. its pretty stable IMO. I'm on the new build which i notice the dpi is set to 182... which i think is a bit too high for this device but its not a problem since its standard in slim bean, since booting up the new build I've noticed that root doesn't work out of the box and i had to go into developer settings and disable it and then re-enable it to get it to work(I've had this problem on a ton of other roms and this works most of the time so heads up to anyone else who has this issue). Also the recents app switcher is a turn off for me...since this device has a relatively small screen

ill post logs immediately if i get any sods or rrs or anything weird but the ROM is pretty stable IMO.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NoSpamDan:
Thanks. Slim intentionally disabled root out of the box. See post #2 for notes on this. :)

Any comments on battery life, wake locks, etc.? For wake locks, best practice is to first wipe cache and dalvik.

For DPI changes use Slim file explorer or root explorer and find this line in /system/build.prop:

ro.sf.lcd_density=182

Change the number to 200 or 210 or whatever you like for DPI (native is 240). Save and reboot. Profit. ;)

You have to enable read/write access to the /system folder.
