T989 jelly bean - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

I was wondering when will we have a touch wiz version of jelly bean available? Reason I'm asking is because I need wifi calling because of signal issues. Any links available with information would be thanked and gratefully appreciated. Thanks in advance

I'm assuming you didnt search through the post that much but the person probably has a question similiar to yours answered. Anyways there is a expected release of Jelly Bean to our T989 probably very late this year or early next year. A rumor went around that we would go straight to 4.1.2 instead of 4.1 but who knows. Anyways if your waiting for the official update you should probably start looking for a custom rom with wifi calling because U.S. carriers are last to apply updates and EU carriers havent even completely started releasing JB to their GS2 devices. Good news is also that they might revamp from TouchWiz to something perhaps a little different like Nature UX or w/e its called when it does release.

Yeah I read through like I usually do. I'm not afraid of reading as well as I thanked him. But I am looking for a custom ROM with wifi calling that is on a jelly mean build but all I see is aosp and aokp builds which do not offer wifi calling

That's because THERE ISN'T ONE. You have to wait until we get an official Touchwiz Jelly Bean build. Till then the best you can do is use an Ice Cream Sammich Touchwiz ROM.
Here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/darkside-evo/files/
This is TDJs Darkside Evolution ICS Touchwiz ROM. IMO still the best ICS Touchwiz ROM we have. V8 is based on 4.0.3 and v0 is based on 4.0.4 but he never really finished it before he left. I recommend v8. Works perfectly fine, stable like a rock and keeps the stock TW look while keeping all his awesome tweaks and custom, overclockable kernel.
Also before I forget, make sure you're on CWM 5.0.2.7 or any version of TWRP before you flash the ROM. Any other recovery will be broken by his scripts.

i wish but seriously how come there are no AOSP roms for the ET4G?
ICS sourced dropped like a week ago, the device has been out for a couple months
The biggest problem is that there is no aosp kernel right now that works. So once we have that there is a better chance at getting aosp roms.

Well there's supposedly a build of CM7 Kang that works quite well on the SGSIIE4GT with some mod work. It was also sent to one of our main devs, Viper boy, and I'm pretty sure he and his team are ripping that thing apart line by line to make it work the best it can. They like to release finished products and they literally just got it yesterday... so.. idk hopefully soon!!!

Just curious, will it help once the Nexus-S 4G gets the official ICS Android 4.0 update from Google + Sprint, can any of that code be used to help make a ICS ROM for our E4T ?
Don't both phones share the same CDMA radios, and some similar Samsung hardware ?

Hold up: Who exactly did you "clarify" that with? I'm only curious because I was the one who sent that kanged Rom to Viperboy, and it was MOST DEFINITELY NOT an ICS Rom when I sent him the link to my Dropbox. When, exactly, did it morph from a tired CM7 build into an ICS ROM?
Am I now known as an "underground smuggler" of ICS ROMs??

Wondering about new Jellybean Roms?

Hey guys, I've used a couple of roms and am a fan of Euroskank, CM10 and AOKP, but I realize they still have no touchwiz. I was wondering with the official JB release being out for the international s3 and it seems to feature touchwiz as well were there no roms that featured the same(Jellybean and touchwiz)? Let me know guys thanks.

"Euroskank, CM10 and AOKP" are all AOSP ROMs, therefore they don't contain Touchwiz. If you want Touchwiz JB ROM, then you'll have to wait for that from Samsung. BTW, official JB ROM for our phones are not out yet.
Correct, AOSP and AOKP are ROMs based off the Android Open Source Project. HTC and Samsung basically load their own launcher or UI over it. There are usually a few ROMs that come with TW but the devas might be waiting for the official source

Unless i'm mistaken(maybe it was for international?). It was on one of these threads in General after the Samsung conference, also a few other sites mentioning it. Again maybe it is just for the international version.

Sept for the lack of touchwiz things like smart alert, smart stay, direct call, tilt to zoom, pan to move/browse, shake to update, palm pause, etc. That is the reason that I like touchwiz. It's slightly more functional than vanil. You can put a launcher on touchwiz and look like AOS/KP with the functionality, you lose that functionality though if you go to AOSP and try to look like touchwiz
Too bad the ROMS are full of bugs and do not work right most of the time. I'll wait for a stable update from Samsung.

I'm pretty sure that this is because Samsung hasn't released 4.0.4 kernel source for the T989. Otherwise, I am sure Faux would have been all over it.
The reason there are no custom 4.0.4 is source has not been released. Until it is, everything will be stock based.

I posted a question about the kernel being built from source and the camera failing, I have yet to receive a response in both Rootz and XDA. Also when contacting Samsung they said they could not help. I know it is something that I am missing and the source is not the newest version, but I do not know what to look for. I have been looking at the Galaxy Tab and Skyrocket custom kernel sources.
Wow still nothing...i think we have the only phone that doesn't have a current custom kernel...maybe this is the end? Although there are over 10 roms...very strange

Yeah, tons of themed roms and unofficial nightly builds, no 4.04 kernels for stock, keeps me on darkside evolution. Seems our only hope is faux and he's super busy
I loved Evolution as well, but TDJ left before finishing up v4 forcing me to opt for Darthstalker. Having GV and bluetooth issue, but stick with it for now till something good turns up.
I have great experience with jedi rom. Try that.

Most stable ROM and easiest to use for women?

I'm currently a SGS3 owner on and the T-mobile Hercules belong to my wife. Her current stock ROM is GB and its been very slow. She wants to do the upgrade to ICS or JB.
I've rooted the phone, installed MIUI with the latest JB last night. Everything is fine and dandy last night. This afternoon, she told me the ROM has been crashing a lot, it would frequently have a black screen and take forever for the screen to come back up. Also, the bluetooth audio out function for music no longer work in her car. It was fine before in stock T-mobile GB rom. Another issue is her office has a very weak reception coverage, so she often use the Wifi-calling feature and it was great. The new MIUI JB rom no longer has that feature.
I'm planning to flash a new ROM, something that is stable, with the feature above already implemented and wont crash or cause major problem. Anything that you guys can recommend me to? Please link the ROM too if you can.
Thanks in advance! :good:
I would advice you to wait until the CyanogenMod 10 comes out for S3.
I'm using the nightly builds for S2 and they're working fine so far... But I'm not aware if there are any for S3

Put a touchwiz based ICS ROM on her phone. Aosp/aokp/cm ROMs don't have WiFi calling. JB ROMs aren't stable enough for use as a DD yet.

Telus Galaxy S 2 X (T989D) To Receive Official JB Update Late Decmeber
