CyanogenMod 7 Self-Kang #1 Alphafied 2.3.7

I just flashed this ROM today... and I'm still playing around with it... but is it missing the Voice software that my stock came with? (Voice instructions... Driving mode... Ect)... I installed the Google files suggested...
Also, I'm not seeing Swipe at all...

Swype isn't there, I just signed up for the Swype Beta and got it back...the keyboard on this version of Swype is actually preferable to stock imo

Awesome!! Thanx so much for the quick reply...

Cm will be missing alot of extras that came with our phone... but extra customization features that didn't..
Personally I like touchwiz and tw framework apps like the camera and mms app so I stick with roms based of stock.. still fast and look great..
That is till miui drops

Is this your first time using CM? It's the most barebones rom you can get, there won't be any extra software installed like on other roms. It's basically just the core files needed for the phone to operate plus some tweaks & customization options, so you'll have to manually add things like Swype and Driving mode. This is what *I* love about CM though, it's almost like a 'build your own rom' deal.

I'll stick with TW based roms, might try out MIUI. Using the stock android camera, calendar...no thanks. The TW roms are just as fast. I noticed nothing working faster running the CM7 build which is the usual want from everyone at the expense of good looking and more features(not tweaks).
I just flashed CM9 on my Nexus S, it's meh.

thats whats so great about android as opposed to other devices. Not everyone agrees with your opinions so you can have the software you like and I can have the software I like.

There are so many ROM's to choose from... CM7 looked good so I choose it... It's a bit buggy though still as it's a beta for this phone model I believe... Suggestions for ROM's? (I like to theme... Customize)...

Well then welcome to the wonderful, addictive world of Android If you like to customize then stick with CM7. It's pretty safe to assume that development for this phone is gonna be very good. There are a lot of themes on the market, just search "CM7 theme".

If you don't want tw, wait for miui. Theme chooser sucks. Miui destroys everything as far as theme customization goes. You can mix and match parts of different themes.

[Q] Inverted apps for TW

I was wondering if anyone has come across or know of any inverted apps that work on TW ROMs? Only my second time using TW and miss the inverted apps for AOSP ROMs. I would gladly appreciate it if someone could help. And yes I did a few searches but I work in the medical field and don't have a lot of time to search and trying to get this phone finished before I get home to the wife lol. Thanks

You can download an inverted gapps zip and extract it then manually move the apps you want to system/apps on the root of your internal sd. I would suggest justinbeans inverted zip because it contains a lot of extras. Theres threads for inverted youtube with 720p playback, inverted multi dpi playstore, and for inverted gnow but you would do better inputting xda followed by exactly you want to find in the google search, it works a heck of lot better than searching from this site it self.

Best 4.1 ROM for our device?

In your own opinion what is your favourite 4.1 ROM available right now? I know this is going to be a very mixed bag thread but just for fun to see what my fellow t989ers are using
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app

Rom All star v7 is
fantastic,awesome,perfect,amazing #1 for me...:thumbup::beer:

I'm using Official slim bean 3.1 with lightning zap kernel and I'm getting average 4 hours of screen time. My favorite rom so far!

CM10 Nightlies. I always get the most out of my battery out of it. Yet, the call quality on them kinda suck. People keep saying i'm breaking up while on a call.

Just to add I'm currently running slimstar and its pretty smooth on my end hasn't settled yet though
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app

Depends what you are asking for. If you want performance, usually CM10. If you want battery, I'd also say CM10. For massive amounts of preferences go with PACman ROM.

Has anyone tried both cory's mod and slimstar?

I am praying for MIUI Jellybean based ROM. For now, Cory's Awesome Mod; It's a WIP but as of now ... It's minimal and is a reliable DD for me. :laugh:

I'm using Corys PAC rom love it best one I've tried so far
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app

All Star V7. Oddly enough I had to flash the rotate fix on it but otherwise great. I tend to get between 4-5hrs of screen time (tested on a plane flight from Dulles to Vienna) per battery.

Slim Bean All Star v5 the best so far...

Cyanogenmod 10

I am running slim-star! I really like it. new build is 26.1 ... Currently re-flashing though because it wouldn't detect my network o__o so I couldn't call anyone.

ROM from GS2USR
I flashed almost all the ROMs and the best one so far is the "[P?+Aokp+Cm] P.A.Cman True All in 1 ROM[01-03-13]" by GS2USR . Using v 19.0 currently.
Very fast/ snappy, no bloatware, has all the options you can imagine. ANd everything works great. I went to other roms for change, but kept coming back to this for smooth sail experience.
Good luck brother !

Aokp. Its virtually bug free.

I wish (ROM-4.1.2-MS1) SlimAOKP Lite/SuperLite Nightlies (made by All-Star Devs) wasn't so buggy I do badly want that ROM to work!

Best T989 ROM Setup
Based on the advice of others who posted, I tried Slim Star v1.26, updated OTA today to v1.27. It is the best of all I tried for T989. No call echo, which was the deal breaker on a few JB roms. No WiFi issues, which I had with the latest CM10 nightlies. Here's the whole sequence of what I end up doing, after a lot of trying things
Flashed Slim Star ROM
Flash the Nexus boot anim from here
Flash Walkman.zip forget where I got that one from LOL, it was in the "Extras" or "Add-Ons" section of one of many ROMS I tried
Flashed latest ASD Kernel (probably overkill I know but I have good luck with this flash as far as eliminating Echo)
Bonus that ASD Kernel flash script does a cache wipe and dalvik wipe and reboot for me, so I do it last (3 less things I have to do in CWMR lol)
Wait 10 min (hardest part LOL)
Reboot, wait 1 min
Set up Google Acct but don't restore phone! Once I accidentally didn't uncheck Restore Phone and it won't let you go back! I had to start all over LOL
Slim Star comes with an app called Update Me, full of Awesomeness. I used the Add-ons menu in there to download a Extras.zip and it's own Slim-Gapps, reboot to Recovery and flash both of those
Today Slim Star did an OTA update of itself to 1.27, dirty flashed that, then set default keyboard to Android because I have to have gesture texting! It just never stops getting more Awesome! :good:
Also Holo Launcher that comes with Slim Star did a Play store update of itself to v2.01. Nice launcher that comes with Slim Star, I set as default, has really good solid Settings organization, never "forgets" my settings like some ROMs did, also wrap around Home screens which I missed for awhile. And it doesn't try to be Phablet, which personally for me I didn't like about some ROMs.
I then disable the following Apps that I don't use (don't know if this is a good idea or not, but it seems to work)
Apollo (I use Walkman)
Google Partner Setup
Google Play Music
Music
Picasa Uploader
Picasa Web Albums
Seeder

Phone is really running better than it ever has, after I followed these steps. Hope this helps others.

may I know how to get center clock as op link?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium

There are a couple of ways to do that. Easiest is to find a custom ROM that offers a way to move clock. I know from experience that P.A.C. and XenonHD offer this. Pretty sure most A.O.K.P builds also can. Never used P.A. or liquid smooth so not sure about them. I'm using XenonHD 7.1 right now and enjoying it after using CM10.1 for some time.

Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium

Have to check your settings and see if there is an option to move clock to center. I've never tried P.A. so I'm unfamiliar with the options it has. This link and thread is just pointing a site I found that offers blacked out and clear versions of Google apps which I enjoy the looks of on my N4.

OP. You are missing quite a bit of needed apks. You still need some syncing apks, etc and the permission and framework xmls. Gotta balance out functionality as well .

This is useful if you want cm10.1 camera, but lots of needed system apks are missing.
