I'm on your twrp I'm on ext4 I flashed cleanly and it still does this, plus this antipiracy is just terrible... I need my LP lol

I have your linked Gapps as well.

I haven't done anything to the phone that the ROM doesn't let me change itself.

I'm going to try validus now let's see how this goes... Wish me a fk load of luck.

Update

OK so when I was installing it I had to flash it like 3 times did 4 full wipes and on the third time it did the same weird behavior where it just stuck on a bootloop then rebooted by itself then it worked.

I'm now on Validus...

It has some weird flicker on the screen from time to time and it doesn't read my sim but I'll try to reboot the phone shortly...

Brb
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] chris4824:
are you using modified pit file? also are you using my old gapps? if so you need to use tk gapps.. Validus is pretty old, have not made a build for it lately.. Tesla is up to date.. Also you can see the discussion on G+..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] UNiqEz:
I'm not sure I know what pit is... But I hope not... Lol

Validus only fails at installing facebook(just like sultan's last build)

Other than that I'll rock it till I find more errors... So far the space is fine, kinda lol.

I'll get those gapps soon.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Aahz Pervect:
I have the same issue with Facebook installs/updates/restores causing the phone to reboot and then go into a bootloop with both 1.9 and 1.9.1. (works fine on 1.8)

I'm using the modified PIT file from the G+ group (the default partitioning), the latest TK GApps (Pico), and have tried both dirty and clean installs multiple times. Also, I've had it reliably happen on other 'large' apps/games (something like ~50-80+ mb) so that would lead me to believe that it's something to do with ART and/or the new kernel's interaction with ART since it happens on 1.9/1.9.1 but not 1.8. :confused:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ulibube:
Did you guys check your partition sizes lately? Data/SD Card, wherever you chose to install your apps. Make sure you got enough free space there, data in particular is pretty small for today's apps. That gave me bad crash & reboot issues. Facebook croaked with about 200MB free on data, I think.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] UNiqEz:
Yes I had 894mb
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] UNiqEz:
Yo!

Huge update...

Reverted back dirty/semi dirty to Tesla...

My microphone works like a champ... You get my support 100% because you guys seem to know your meme... No other dev fixed that nasty low as fk volume issue while recording vids or VM ppl... Thanks so far no RRoD cx

Still using validus gapps tho.. Pico from tk won't install lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ulibube:
I assume only ROMs with Sultan's kernel have the microphone issue. I've had it on Sultan's 4.4/5.0/5.1, and on AOSPA. I did not have it on Candy. What kernel does Tesla use?

Does Tesla have SELinux enabled? I really like the SELinux support on AOSPA.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RogueCoyote:
Thanks for confirming this issue with facebook and large apps. I reported it to Chris while testing the last build, said he's looking into it. He's already mentioned slow app install times are ART related but the payoff is they load faster once installed. For now I just turned off auto update. Also just a note, at first I thought it was going into bootloop too but I don't think it is, it just takes FOREVER like 30 minutes sometimes to get going again. Either way holding power button to reboot is still fastest option.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] cdnron:
I came here to report bootlooping with Tesla as well but see others are having the same issue. :( I got a bootloop within an hour of install (clean wipe and install, TK Gapps). I loved Validus, switched to Tesla to give it a shot. I like the nice little touches and customizations but bootlooping within an hour is a definite deal breaker.

Tesla 1.9.1 SkyRocket - Cannot hang up Calls

GUI Stuck in "Hanging Up" - but Call keeps going. Only way is to turn off radio manually or Reboot the phone.

Also, Call Recorder app will start recording even if it is set not to.

Tesla-Skyrocket-5.1.1 High Voltage 1.9.1 Release 2015-07-30

Fresh Install. Fully clean / Absolutely no apps or anything installed. Nothing configured. Can not make phone calls. Reboot once more, Can make a call now but cannot hang up. Called myself from Google, no incoming call showing.

Dialer/InCall system is buggy yet. Hoping for a permanent fix.

Also, in addition to this. When I did get it to make a call, Apps that depend on Kernel/Root such as Skvalex Call Recorder misbehaved badly by starting recordings even when they are set not to. On KitKat and another Lollipop for a Blu phone I test this did not happen. Not sure if Root Call Blocker worked, did not test it. APN has to be Manually selected. Radio hangs between Switching from 3G to 2G to Back to 3G. This is the latest Radio I am using for Galaxy S2 i727R(Rogers) -- from Vincoms Skyrocket page.

So those are my findings so far. This is on SkyRocket.

Did a clean flash of 2.0 RC and immediately tried to restore Facebook using Titanium Backup = worked perfectly. (restoring everything else now but so far so good in regards to 'large' apps :good:)'

edit: After restoring everything I rebooted and both Messenger and Facebook needed updates: The install process takes forever and then = Unknown error code during application install: "-504" (I'm really starting to hate ART...but not as much as Facebook)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RogueCoyote:

Op updated with Tesla 2.2 :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] cdnron:
I keep trying to give Tesla a chance but still has too many bugs. This morning I had my phone RR while it wasn't doing anything and would not boot back up into the OS. Pulled the battery and tried to start back up but ended up having to pull the battery, go into recovery, wipe cache and then it booted back up after optimizing apps again. Plus, there's the whole large apps taking forever to install and then automatically rebooting to optimize it. I feel like I'm using an old BlackBerry again. I'm going to stick with Slim as it's been super stable. Hopefully the problems can get sorted out with Tesla.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] raptor170:

Thanks for this. This is the fastest custom rom i tried on my old device. The only issues are it restarts alone and sometimes it hangs and turn display to black, so battery needs to be remove to power it up again. Also wondering how to replace the bootlogo?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RogueCoyote:
Just wanted to share that I have been testing new Kernel for Chris and he has fixed the RR and black screen issue. I was experiencing them what seemed like every 5 min, now it's been running for 13 hrs, yay! Reboots after installing/updating big apps are also gone. He will have it out with the next build, for now 2.2 is probably your best option.﻿

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Aahz Pervect:
Yes. ASAP. Those were the problems with 2.2.1 and why people reverted to 2.2. Now with 2.3 that stuff all appears to be fixed as well as 'large' apps needing a reboot to fully install. (my understanding is that Chris did a lot of great work on the kernel which fixed all kinds of stuff for 2.3)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tlazarus:

noob question

Hi, what are the basic differences among the three (Tipsy, Validus and Tesla) ROMS?

I know it's better to just try and flash them one by one and check out the similarities and differences. However, I cannot afford to experiment with my Herc because I use it as my daily driver for work and personal use. What would you recommend as a good daily driver among the three or other LP roms?

Thank you so much! :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] cameraddict:
Questions about this Rom series:

Do these roms resolve the Google Play Services Update wakelock issue?

Does the kernel support OC and/or UV?

What about OC/UC the GPU?

How about UVing the screen?

Thanks!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] raptor170:
No wakelock issues here, awake 2% over 6 hour period :)

If you flash kernel manager, it will also install synapse which you will have full control, yes you can oc and UV the CPU, can uc the GPU, and so much more

Sim Card Issues and Other stuff

i am using galaxy s2 t-mo (hercules). i have some questions:

i am from the Philippines. This Galaxy S2 T-mobile (hercules t989) belongs to a friend. he asked me to mod this so i had been searching roms. Finally i came accross this Validus ROM on YouTube, but couldn't download it on the links given on youtube. and so i found this xda thread and discovered these 3 ROMs on one thread. First i tried the TipsyOS. First problem i encountered was the Sim. even though the phone has a sim (this is already openlined to work here on my country) i always get this opoup that sim has been added. reboot.blablablah..i reboot but still have that issue. and th signal bar come on or off on Tipsy. Now i am on Validus..same issue telling me that sim has been added..almost every now and then. now the phone is in idle since im charging it and at least the signal icon is there..not vanishing like in Tipsy.

problem 2-i encountered this on Tipsy too. it's about the camera. firstly, how do i switch to front camera? lol. but that's not the real issue. the real issue about the camera on Tipsy is that after staying long on the camera, an error will happen-"canot access the camera" pops up but the camera won't go black. i just close the cam and open it again if i need..but then there you have it. i will try the Validus Camera after charging the phone. seems like the battery of this phone is ****. it drains so fast.

i hope i can get a response today because i'll not be around tomorrow. i'll be on christmas trave and so i cannot attend to the phone. lol :D thanks again guys. :)

EDIT: btw, if you need more info, i came from the official ICS 4.0.3, using TWRP latest that was posted in OP. i dunno what you guys mean by the latest radio T989UVLE1 is that the probable cause of my vanishing sim issue?

EDIT 2: solved the problem. restored nandroid of stock ics, updated to jb via kies and rerooted and reflashed rom. no more sim issues.

If you have done sultan virtual repartition you will need to roll that back.

:confused:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] raptor170:
Not quiet sure how to roll back sultans virtual partition, if you have all you internal SD files backed up you could always do the .pit partition flash via Odin with the premade pit file and have 8gb of internal memory for apps, etc. Instead of 2gb. [MENTION=993377]chris4824[/MENTION] might have answer about sultans partition tho
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] chris4824:
From what know about Sultans Rom you need to flash original recovery (I recommand TWRP) and then just do what you would do when installing a rom doing a clean complete wipe (including internal sd card).. Thats it.. Make sure to do a clean install.. You may want to copy the contents off of your internal sd card before hand (not backup..) that way you can copy them back afterwards..

This is Sultans instructions for undoing his Rom
