Weekly ICS ROM Updates - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Hi all,
I am going through all the threads that have ics based roms for our phone and thought it might be a good idea if we had a communal collation of all ics roms that are active in this forum with provided chainlogs and small reviews of said rom and what issues they have.
Reason for this is simple, to help other users that are not confident in flashing up to 4.0.3 unaware that they may run into something that they did not bargain for.. Hopefully this way we
A) Get a general run down each week as to what rom is working well which are not.
B) Issues/bugs.
C) Reviews of what works and not.
D) Temp fixable issues ie: auto rotation.
E) May help in less clutter in actual development thread.
I thought I would put this out see if anyone agrees here. I am more than welcome that if we use this thread as a starting point.
In no way shape or form that this thread will be used as a means of competitiveness between devs, to start flaming in any sort of fashion, this is purely a thread designed to help everyone with ics progression where its at, what dev's are up too and which would be safe to flash and what is not and is for experimental use.
Hopefully this could be a useful thread, with the dev's permission in doing this of course
Cheers.

I like the idea

+1 to this idea!!

There are already Q&A threads for each of the ROM's. Why make the board more cluttered than it already is by re-posting what is already in those threads?
People need to learn to use the search function and stop being lazy and actually take the time to read a thread every now and then. A thread like this will do nothing but enable the lazy to be even less productive and will not help. You will just see the same questions asked here over and over and over and over and over just like in all the other threads.
Also if people would read a damn OP like they are supposed to before flashing a ROM they would already know what does and doesn't work and if the ROM is a RC or experimental.

Valued response, and yes using the search tool does help, but. rather than searching for what is needed why don't we have one thread to sum up on all progression? This thread is not designed to have countless questions all this is to gather weekly updates on ics roms from there respected developer. If someone wanted to ask questions they should be directed to the respected Q&A thread as they have there own. If someone wishes to choose to read up on what is happening in the world of ics t989 development then they come here nothing more nothing less.
As this wouldn't be hard to do at every week commencing someone can be anyone can choose to post up any sort of update to any rom and that is valid for that week only... then make up another thread so for example this one wouldn't spiral out of control and inform a mod to delete or close thread... simple that way it would stay fresh relevant with what we want to know, and of course anyone can participate in this.
Again thanks for your input, I'm not saying this is what we should be doing but a suggestion to everyone and see if this would make life a little easier on some. Alternatively if you don't like it then don't post anything worth mentioning and leave for people who could benefit from it
Cheers.

To replace my battery and my camera since it force closes, I use QuickPic as my gallery and Camera zoom FX Pro as my camera. They work pretty well with some minor set backs.

Echo?
Are there any ICS ROMs that do not have an echo????

It seems to be an issue with the flashing process as far as echo goes...easy does it, my DD has no echo...actually while many people have reported that among other bugs the only one I have is the reboot hang...which really...tough **** I have to hold the power button down the few times I need to turn it off lol. Oddly though it does not hang if I reboot into recovery from rom manager.
Ics is really weird...everyone is getting different bugs following the same install process. I'm guessing some of our devices are more willing to adapt to the skyrocket kernel than others...

Guess you got the one with the magic bean.

Well before I went on vacation Tuesday I was playing around with a few of the different ics that are there for tmo gs2 and found that a lot of issues went away when I unmounted the SD card. The camera had no problem and I didn't notice any echoed sound. Kind of strange but one thing I noticed that a lot of native ics devices don't have external SD cards. Might be something for devs to look at.

Rather than start another thread, while perusing the amaze forum I stumbled.upon info on CM9..

[Q&A]["Spamming and ETC :)"]CyanogenMod 9.0.0-GalaxyICS

Hello everybody here,
so lots of us said that we should have a "Spamming" thread for CM9 and 4.0 Android development made by Maclaw's DevTeam-thanks for them, again . So here it is:
Please guys, if you have any bugs and problems which are already mentioned in GitHub, but you don't care to "ask-first-then-shoot", then post your problem here.
Please, write here, and really, don't annoy dev's on their DEV thread. That's for them to submit upgrades, news, and stuff.
Thanks anyway, and please, let the Dev's work in the calm way it should be.
Spam and post your heartbreaks here
Thnx for the thread. I feel like I can post my non-contructive post yet not clutter the dev thread
I following/trying CM9 closely. It looks very promising can't wait for the finished ROM
I should make some time to properly test/bugreport in git.
Should be in general, not there.

have u ever thought, that 'tards constantly flaming and making EXCEPTIONALLY unnecessary threads such as this one, are in fact much worse than noobs whining about their gallery not working?
Seriously though, I've been following Maclaw's thread for weeks, and the spam is no where near annoying as some "certain efforts" to end it.
Haters gonna hate, noobs gonna noob, deal with it.
p.s i consider myself a noob as far as android goes. But i don't whine about it, and don't shout at people on forums.
p.s2 somehow I doubt that this message will make the impact I intended it to make... sad.
Oh, and another thing - how do you define "spamming" and it's relation to the original post? I'm not much of a linguist myself, but something tells me you're not either, therefore both of us should keep our mouths shut...?
Oh 2.0: did i mention that this whole thread is a spam? ( and what is it we do with spam nowadays huh? )
You made good points. I don't spam myself as I see others do. At first I thought this was a good idea. So the course of action is to kill this thread or let it die.

how about fixing 3d graphics in future? Now, Asphalt 5 is laggy on my Gio.
same as inotia, cant play currently
but that will be fixed when the rom features work flawless

feiks- if you dont feel that this therad is necessary, then ignore it. there are some people who think this is a good one, although Maclaw is right, this should be in general.
And yes, spaming the DEV post is something like the whining of ~15 people that gallery is not working, camera is not working...if they'd read first, then they would know what they can get from this rom.
Though, ignore this post if it's unnecessary for you.
For the others, enjoy.
A quick point about creating new threads and where to place them.
Question.
Are you actively developing something?
Answer.
Yes.

Thread should go in the Development section

Intentionally creating threads in the wrong place, just annoys other users and creates work for me. In future think about where to place your thread.
If after creating a thread you think, "I should of posted that in 'General'". PM me or report the post, I'll happily move it.
Thank you
It was my fault to place it to development.

Loving the ICS ROM by Maclaw and the gang - awesome work - it keeps getting better and better with each release.
Android is new to me so still learning - trying to get text to speech working, of course to try out a Siri like app.
I cannot seem to find where to turn on text to speech. I have tried a couple of apps and it appears that it is not on - and I cannot find where to turn it on.
Thanks in advance for any help

Finally I can say something about CM9 and ICS. I've been quietly reading the development thread from the beginning and thanking developers' posts for many months.
Anyway, I read that next release will be faster and with more working settings. I can't wait to try it out. I tried Beta 2, because it got generally good feedback before, and I thought that maybe it is good enough for daily usage. True, it is functional enough, but just a bit too laggy and glitchy for my liking. It was a good experience to test it, and all in all it didn't seem that much different from Gingerbread afterall. I miss the ability to put widgets on homescreen by simply longpressing, now you have to go to app drawer and search there - but I'm sure I will get used to it in time. I like the new setup of settings menu though.
But my message to the development team and everybody else who helps them: Good luck and thank you! I will continue "thanking" your posts in the dev topic. We are lucky to have active CyanogenMod developers on our rather not-so-good and not-so-popular phone, and good developers too - Phiexz and Maclaw as the main men, but also others. Kudos.
Im dreaming about 3.0.8 kernel (or new) on ics 4.0.3 on Gio
If i get a new sms the phone wont viberate..
I have the silent profiel turned on but still normally i would hear the viberating sound getting a new message. This is a bit anoying cose often i have to react right away.
Any one know how to turn on the viberating?
Hi,
I installed beta3.
I can't download s2e from the market. Is any version that works with cm9?
Thanks
The betta 3 is a lot better alread. Things that dont work for me atm are: Camara (I did try other cammera apss to. No succes) The foto galary app will crash (I only have like 280 fotos. Kids there fun)
Playing movies (Xvid/divx) and mp3 does not really work well.
Thats it for no.. Got to work again.
Why Spam?
Just help Dev friends. Your support would encourge them to work hard on softwares. Sorry for bad bad english
There is a discussion in CM9 development topic about bootlogos. Am I the only one who doesn't care about it? I've disabled it anyway for faster booting. Why is bootlogo so important for some? For all I care it could be a steaming dog turd, it doesn't matter

and my lack of messages is only because i was able to view the dev forums before, and i've been flashing roms for a while, and didn't had the need to be asking around

so this doesn't make any sense ... anyways ... everyone can view dev forums you just can't post in them. Read up on bug list, known issues, what works, and make an educated guess. Flashing a rom isn't serious business, however, that being said if you can't read a change log and test roms out for yourself you probably don't need to be flashing or messing with your phone anyways.
... and on that note..
cool story bro.
I tried all sense 4 roms here, they are all the same and the camera doesnt work....
Its simple, there is no Best rom. This is a development site. Roms made here are not made to be perfect. They are made to learn how to do it and to mess with. If you are not here to learn about development then you are in the wrong place. Oh and you can view the Development threads you just cant replay in them.

RE: Task & Ktoonsez 4.2.1 ROM...

RE: Task & Ktoonsez 4.2.1 ROM...
I...absolutely...adore...this ROM. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1766684
But it's uber buggy.
I definitely understand that you're going to have bugs in a cutting edge ROM. I just wonder what the status of this ROM's development is and there's no way I could go through the seventeen thousand plus replies on the ROM's thread.
2 things:
1 - Is there any way to fix the messaging issues (it says nothing ever sends when it does), the unlock screen issues (I have it set to not have to hit enter to unlock but I have to anyway) or any of the other things this ROM does? Is there an update in the works?
2 - If there's not a way to fix these things, is there another 4.2.1 ROM out there that is less buggy yet?
I desperately want to run this ROM as a daily ROM!! The lock screen widgets, the camera, the stock messenger amongst other things...it's just so GOOD!
Any help, info and/or words of wisdom would be GREATLY appreciated!!
Thanks!!

It will get fixed. Give it time as for the rest of your question : Nope and nope
Sent from my SGH-I747 using xda premium
Considering that this ROM just got released two days ago, you're not going to have to read through 17k replies. Maybe the last 15 pages or at least from the date of the release and all your questions will be answered. Probably within the first few pages that you read.
Sent from my SGH-I747 using xda premium
Dude, you have about 2-3 small bugs to complain about and you think you can't run this as a daily ROM? Come on, if you care that much about being bug-free then you should probably just stick with the Stock ROM.
or you could read the change log in the op
1 - Hey...as long as they are WORKING on the ROM still, I'm good. I'll keep checking for updates for sure. Can't wait!
2 - I knew someone would give me the "well...this is so new, you're stupid to ***** about it" reply. Knew it was coming and thank you for that MDX. I KNOW it's new. I KNOW it's going to have bugs. And, a partially functioning messaging app is anything but a "small bug." That's why I said, and I quote, "I definitely understand that you're going to have bugs in a cutting edge ROM." The whole purpose of this post was to find out if there are ways *I* could fix the things that are screwed up and/or help any and, if not, if there was another, similar, better ROM. Only n00bs run stock. I'm definitely not n00b.
3 - Thanks for the clarification, AJJ. I thought it was a new thread for the ROM and was actually like...what the ****!? How does this have so many replies!!?? I'll check that out. Thanks again.
Thanks everyone!!
Yeah...cause you cant text, or receive texts at all on the ROM...and nothing on the lock screen works**end sarcasm**....try cm10.1...only other 4.2.x rom out there...otherwise, this has already been covered ad nauseum in the Dev thread...

You don't have to read 17,000 posts ever - use search. Your answers will usually be found in the ROM thread, there is no need for this one - the issues are being addressed.

GC01 Bugs and Glitches

I've noticed a large amount of glitches and bugs in GC01. If you find any please list them here.

Just a suggestion, but you may want to consider expanding on the issues so those that may feel like investigating have more to go on. For example..:
*Volume slider and slider animation - Can you provide a screenshot for reference of the issue?
*Missing Features - A list of what you find missing would be helpful. For example; Sprint removed Maps and YouTube since they can be downloaded from the Play Store...
*Unstable in general - How so? What are you seeing that makes you say it's unstable..? FC's, freezing, etc?
There again, only a suggestion but you may get more participation or helpful thoughts on remedies..

Now stop the bickering please.

People please... keep this thread on topic. There are a large amount of boost mobile users that are debating on whether to update or not. Thank you.
Wow... A newbie throwing out rules... Granted threads should stay on topic, but you should understand who is posting in your thread, OP. Garwynn is one of the biggest contributors for the E4GT as well as MoHoGalore. I don't think you have any room to make those kinds of demands when a RC has given you advice on this thread and you completely ignore it. So really, this thread has no real topic of discussion because it says absolutely nothing because of the lack of information provided, therefore people can post whatever they want because this thread is just cluttering up the forum.

Whether they're senior members or not, they should follow rules. They could be the owners of XDA and I'd still tell them to stay on topic. There are threads for general conversations, this is not one of them. Rules are rules, and they are meant to be followed. Now please stay on topic people, people really need these kinds of things. And also, he gave me a suggestion. I did not follow his advice because I did not feel the need to do so. My thread, my topic, my list. Whoever wants to add to the list can. Bugs need to be reported to samsung so that hopefully we will have a better future release.

Well if his advice is not important, then I am going to ask a mod to close this thread because it provides nothing. Also, that will be the last update from Samsung, so with that said, this thread is useless. I also am curious about who is reporting said "bugs" to Samsung? Do you think they will come here to find it? Nope. For the record, they nor I are just Senior Members. All of us that have posted and offered advice are Recognized Contributors. One would do well to take the advice of an RC to help better a thread, instead of blatantly ignoring them. We have been around for quite some time and in that time have learned how things work.

as soon as i gather more bugs i will report to samsung over and over until they release another update, and it was never stated that this would be the last update for the boost model. and if this thread does get closed ill start a fresh new thread where theres no un-needed conversation.

The Boost model is the same as the E4GT. The 4.1.2 JB Update has been reported as the final from the Samsung sources. I highly doubt they will pay attention to one person reporting little bugs, especially when you don't describe them at all. They have more important things to worry about.
i have a question. does it make you feel better to put people down over the internet? does it make you feel as if your in control of everybody? im not going to be the only one reporting. others that want a bug free GC01 will also report. now please stop further cluttering my thread and go troll someone else.

How am I putting you down? I am agreeing with another RC about your thread not having any descriptions to your so called "bugs". I am not trying to control anything. I am offering the same advice. You can do whatever you like, but I can bet that this thread will either die as is, or it will get closed. You can either let one of the 2 happen by not doing anything to fix it, or do something productive and make it a worthwhile thread. Also, take note. I have not seen very many other people complain about it. Seems like you are the only one or one of a very few people.
Protip: Putting full, well thought out descriptions of your issues will help us help you possibly fix them. If you don't think descriptions are important, you will get nothing.
Example: When testing Shadow_God's Jellyverse 2.0 ROM before he posted it. I ran into a few crashes. I didn't just say "Oh, it crashed". I went into details. "Downloaded via Wi-Fi and installed through Agats GB27 RePack. ROM booted fine, but shortly after getting into the setup process the Android.phone process started force closing. My baseband seems to have been wiped and the launcher seems to be nonexistent."
I then took steps to fix it myself. I was able to fix it with little to no effort, and SG was able to post the ROM without any issues.
So with all that said, if you want to ignore very experienced veterans on XDA, that is your choice. You are free to do so. But don't expect me or anyone else to take you seriously when we make an honest effort to gain viable and needed information to potentially resolve the issues, then have you ignore the efforts.
Consider the following, if we don't take you seriously because of your lack of information and willingness to help us help you, do you honestly think Samsung will give even the slightest crap? They won't... Like I said before, they have better and more important things to do.

I vote for option two.
The lack of description on these so called bugs is not informative to the readers, it makes me want to try flashing GC01 to my E4GT just so that I can try to experience whatever issues are being mentioned.

Removed my first post on this thread. I was wrong to post here and op was right to call out.
Op... how you updated to gc01 makes a difference. I still recommend a factory reset or full restore one click. This will resolve most issues as noted in past.
As for whether to update or not that's your call. Most around here believe it is FAR better than ICS and even though this is expected to be the final s/w release feel free to complain to Samsung and/or Boost if not happy. That's your right.
But please avoid using generalizations and then assuming the build is bad based on one individual's experience. That too does other folks a disservice. If you can please provide more specific details it helps the community note confirmed issues and possibly address them on our own.
Thanks.

I never stated that the build was bad, but like every build it has bugs. the reason i didnt further explain is beacause there really is no way for a screenshot... but i believe i found a fix to anyone experiencing these bugs. so heres what i did to fix my problem.
1. download superuser.zip from rwilco's repo
2. download the gb27 repack from rwilco's repo
3. download the stock gc01 stock kernel
4. place superuser.zip on your sd card
5. Odin the GB27 repack
6. enter recovery and flash superuser.zip
7. delete dalvik cache
8. odin stock gc01 kernel
9. reboot twice

go ahead. the more help the better. it is not some bug that will make you loose all your data... it is minor bugs that annoy the (insert profanity here) out of me. keep in mind there are two installation methods to installing GC01 provided by samsung, local and kies. i chose local because kies wouldnt update for somereason and would randomly crash

[Q] kinda would like to see some ICS help please?

Okay, so I've had i317 for about 4 months now, its a great phone. I would just love to see an ics 4.0.4 rom, be it stock or aosp,, aokp, etc for this device. The reason being is that there are alot of apps I used to use, such as UMA and a few others I cannot remember as of right now. Forgive me if this isn't the correct area to post the question lol. But can anyone possibly help me with my issue I'm having? A. ort or something would be ideal if possible.
On a side note: I have some prior knowledge with developing roms and getting them to work fully and such, like betas alphas and what not. just haven't gave much thought as to post on the forum untill now. So I'm not completely of the noob calibur so to speak.
Lastly, my final question, would anyone be interested in deving up a 100% pure custom 4.3 rom that is completely Pokemon themed right down to the contacts and dialer. I will include more detail upon request, also one that isn't 10.1 based or cm in general. The reason I say non cm based is because volume+ sound boost breaks the speaker and crackles pretty badly, and i am partialy deaf so the apk is much needed. Any help would be be very appreciated and id be eternally greatful.

It's not going to happen. The note 2 was shipped with 4.1.1 (or higher) so there is no 4.0 source for devs to work with.
Also, since pretty much every AOSP rom uses the CM Theme Manager, it's not that common to see themed roms (there are exceptions, but they tend to be lightly themed). Either find a CM theme to your liking or learn to theme your rom.
Sorry my friend...
You aren't the only one wanting it...
I'd even take a nice CM6 ROM for this device...
But as mentioned... It's just a dream... g

Okay, well shoot. Could you at least tell me that the possibility to get an apk to adapt and work on a newer rom is possible? I ask this because the main reason for me asking a dream question is simply that I love the ultimate mobile armor apk. it is the best privacy apk ever thought of. It was removed for reasons unknown. Back when I had my S3 and I717, it worked on both. Sadly it will not stick on the rooms I run currently. (Cleanrom 5.0, lionrom 2.1, etc.) Could the scripts and such be altered somehow for it to be compatible? On the S3 I always ran cm10 and its stick. Any thoughts, ideas and suggestions that are helpful and or leading to an apk exactly similar to ultimate mobile armour would be greatly appreciated.

Apk alteration is very possible ...
The trick is finding a dev to work it out ...and since apps are owned by their respective creators ...you would need permission from him/her to use or modify the code...
And I've always said it ...
A few emails and pm's go a long way..
Hit up the dev and see what you can learn ...g

Ive looked and searched and I've found nothing from the devs of this apk. Its been completely stricken from the web. What are my other options here as far as these apk Modding concerns go? I've found nothing for secure mobile sadly.
I see...
That being said ...it appears the app has been killed off for legal reasons ??
And lookout mobile is inferior how ??
Most of these security apps are monitored via 3rd party in addition to device activity ...
So it stands to reason that if your service for the apk is dead....it won't work anyway..
Best advice...pick an alternate and move forward....
Lookout and AVG are both exceptional ...and many others are available ..
Norton or Mccaffe possibly too...
Happy hunting ...and sorry I couldn't be of more help...g
