Is it time for JellyBean? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

I have been using various TW based ICS Roms for sometime. Darkside, Infamous, etc. I have been so excited to use Jelly Bean and try out project "Butter" I notice there is an official stable release for Cynogen mod 10. Is it time to flash? I get anxiuos about it because I delt with an old HTC HD2 for a year and there were lots of "work arounds" and such. It became rather annoying. So I really like BLN notifications, and having a camera that "Just Works" and decent battery life etc. Are these things I am going to sacrifice. And also, if I wait until there is an official release of JellyBean for our device over the next couple of months would we see more stable builds shortly thereafter? Would it be worth waiting another month or two? or is time for JellyBean? Just curious what folks thoughts are about this? Who is using what? How it works etc? I am really looking for a DD something I can be happy with awhile. I can always just do a Nandroid and hope for the best I guess lol. Thanks for any input!

There is no project butter for this phone yet. We still don't have Jelly Bean official GPU drivers from Qualcomm yet :-/

I would definitely try a jb rom I was hesitant at first,but now I wouldn't go back. On the liquid rom and it runs great.
I believe the camera will depend on what gapps you flash, I'm using the justun bean gapps. Bln works fine and battery life is good ( I'm using the kko kernel)

Definitely try CM10!!
You will fall in love.
I know exactly what you are saying about being hesitant because you want something that just works, without a bunch of additional issues to fix.
I always seem to find problems with other other roms that push me into looking for something else, NOT HERE!
CM10 is just so polished, It even fixes things that didn't work in any TW rom for me such as being able to send / receive MMS while connected to wifi.
It even has BLN built in and activated from the start.
I must say that CM10 + T989 = THE BEST phone experience I have EVER had with any phone.
I was getting so sick of going through so many wrongs, always to end up having to settle with some negative.
Everything just works with CM10 on our phone, and works well at that.
I finally dove in with the nightly CM10 builds about 2 months ago and now the official CM10 release.
Not a single lock up, force close, reboot, glitch or problem here in the last 2 months.
Battery life is really good, phone is smooth and fast, and most importantly it's super functional.
Everything works so much better for me than with any of the TW roms.
I love how CM10 is minimalistic and fast, yet has so many functional improvements and additions.
In my opinion it is hands down the best rom for our phone.
I think the fact that there is an entire team of developers working on CM is what makes it so good, it's not just dependent on one person like most roms.
Flash CM10... fall in love with your phone all over again!!
And after you flash CM10, flash this GAPPS http://goo-inside.me/gapps/gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip
I haven't had any problems whatsoever.

Well thanks for all the input. Especially in regards Cyanogen Mod 10. I may try that very soon. I'm excited about Jelly Bean! May be time to make the switch...

With how easy it is to do a backup/restore of phone these days, I find it easiest just to backup what I have and dive in to a new rom because the worst case is that you have to spend 5 minutes for it to restore if you don't like the new rom. Good luck! Hope you enjoy it!

My only concern with that is that I once did a Nandroid backup and restore on this phone and Root Explorer lost its ability to be "rooted", I couldn't change the r/w option...

I guess there is always the chance for a glitch, but usually it works fine, at least I haven't hit any yet

So I did it ! ! ! ! I like it so far. The aesthetics are very nice and I did miss the customization of Cyanogenmod. The only thing I notice right off is the BLN notification is craaazy. Doesn't really work. I have adjusted the setting to "always on" and other things. I even downloaded the BLN notification app. the settings also do not stick, it blinks even though I have it set to always on. Any thought on this?

Have you tried a different kernel? I'm using king kangers .12 on my phone and BLN works perfectly.

I'm not really sure. I never installed bln or tried to customize it, I just left it stock where all the buttons blink when I get a notification.

Thats a good idea. I just read in the Cyanogem Mod Stable notes that the kernel was tied into the ROM very tightly especially with project butter. Whatever that means. So maybe I will try another kernel. Do you use an app or just the system settings?

Been using ROM toolbox, the performance settings don't seem to stick otherwise.

Yea I had to use it on the liquid rom. I ended up using it for it's other features too. Rom tool box is a great app!

Had the ROM about 2 days and I do love it. Everything really seems to work better. Even some games run smoother. I am running the hotcakes kernel. I couldn't find the kang one. BLN still seems funky but it'll do. Battery is a little worse but I've been playing with it alot. Overall I definitely like it. Can't wait for 4.2

I'm glad you like it! It made my phone so much better. I thought battery life was not as good at the start too, but now I think it was just because I had been playing with it so much. Seems fine now.

So I hope I didn't speak too soon. I've been having alot if trouble with the video recorder and camera wanting to force close with the message "Gallery has stopped responding" also when I call out sometime I just don't hear anything.. Kinda weird. The people on the other end don't hear me either... Is this a know Cyanogen Mod 10 issue?

I have not had any issues with the gallery,camera, or video recorder whatsoever. In fact, I took over 200 photos and 10 videos at a concert this weekend. I haven't seen any issues with it in the CM10 thread either, so I know it's not a common CM10 problem. Are you running the stock CM10 camera, or have you tried flashing the 4.2 camera? I know the 4.2 camera has some issues, thus why it's not stock on CM10 yet. I would say, try clearing your camera / gallery cache. If that doesn't work, you may have a bad flash. Make sure you wipe data / reset, wipe cache, and wipe dalvik cache, flash the rom, flash gapps, clear cache / dalvik again, fix permissions, then boot into CM10. Never had a problem doing it this way. I'm using 2.2.2 (i think) TWRP touch recovery. As far as the outgoing call issue, I have not had that issue either. Occasionally someone can't here me when they call me, or I can't hear them, but not very often. I had this issue on stock and every rom though.I think it's just a Tmobile issue. I'd say try some different radios. UVLE1 has been good to a lot of people.

Thanks. I'm not sure what happened. I flashed UVLH1 for the infamous rom. Maybe I ought to switch back. The only special thing I have done is flash the Center clock mod. Running stock camera though.

I dont think so currently. Youre going to have to go without sepia on your pics for a while. Its hard to be artsy on android.
Instagram is a app issue with "all" ICS ROMs. It hit and miss as very very few have said it worked for them but majority it does not work.
The app is fully working for me using NexusMod ICS Zero. I admit it wasn't working and was freezing trying to use the filters. But once I did the Fix Permissions Workaround for ICS it is fully working now. It does lag a little on some of the filters but it no longer freezes up the phone or reboots the phone.

Which ROM are you on? Mine uploads fine after the fix permission fix.
Crap...I just updated to the latest Instagram and now mine are pitch black now...lol.
I'm on Racings UCLD Skyrocket ICS, and Instagram actually TECHNICALLY does work now, but it's far from perfect. I've only had one FC though so that's good.
In general its just slow applying the filters at times, and just seems a little "buggy" on my ICS rom. But it does work so I'm not complaining (on the old ICS roms it would just freeze up the entire phone and FC constantly)

On Racing's newest UCLD Skyrocket Rom it seems to work, not great but good enough for me (I was so against going back to Gingerbread that I was prepared to live without Instagram so I'll take what I can get) lol
1/5 times or so, is how often I can get it to work.

The same one as you dude, maybe the next update will fix it.
So how can any of you say it's working when using words like (1 out of 5, lagging, black picture, freezes often)....That my friends is not working so again to not create false hope for any newbies running around trying to get a fix for instagram - It's an app issue with ICS and does not have anything to do with ICS Rom's. Period.

Lol very true. After playing more with instagram I can go ahead and say it doesn't work well enough to warrant using. Mine Freezes on applying filters and when attempting to export photos.
Also the pics that I was able to get edited/uploaded through instagram (after a lot of waiting and semi FC's) I noticed that the quality is severely degraded after it gets uploaded I freely admit I haven't spent much time with instagram (I have a real camera and use LR3 and CS5 when I want to do some photography) but is it normal for it degrade the quality so much?
After my pics were uploaded they looked they were shot with the front facing camera on my T-989 lol
I wonder if we all wrote them. Maybe they can help resolve the issues. Here's the link.

Unrooted with the stock ICS update. I've caught my S2 locking up every now and then for as long as a couple of minutes. also noticed more lag switching between apps, particularly Contacts
and, to be honest, I have tried most ROMs out there and applaud the terrific work - While some offer blazing speeds, great UIs, whatever...There ALWAYS seems to be something missing (WiFi Calling, incompatible radio, no MMS...you name it) If I could find an ICS - Based ROM with everything stock has, working properly, I'm there!

Just a personal opinion, but i would ODIN the stock ICS for now and wait a few days/week for AOSP, AOKP, and all the other individual rom makers to get the proprietary drivers and source merged in. That will make ALL THE DIFFERENCE IN THE WORLD.
I will - thanks man
I have so far very good experience with the Darkside mod of the stock ICS.
Small issue with reboot hanging was fixed using his scripts. Personally I prefer stock rooted with junk removed from the system. I need full functionality of the stock from for everyday life.
BTW my battery life is also good.

I've been running the aokp since build 1 and i haven't switched back to gb or ics since i think it's a huge difference from both. I like it a lot, it's very smooth, the flicker can be get rid of by choosing a few options in settings like disable hw overlay, which completely gets rid of the flicker for me. I don't use google now but the search works yeah. I get random reboots and either pull the battery or wait a few seconds and then hold down the power button until it restarts, but it doesn't bother me as much it rarely happens at important times, usually it happens after i lock the phone and put it in my pocket. Also it freezes sometimes too but not too often.

I've been using AOKP as a DD for a while now I love it. I would suggest flashing the newest nightly (9-18). It's all about preference with ROMs, I love all the ways to customize AOKP.
It's like I tell everyone though, just flash it and test it out for yourself. Always make a nandroid just incase if you don't like it you can always flash back... no harm no foul. Ever since JB leaks I haven't gone back to anything else.
You won't be disappointed. Just follow the instructions and read up on the threads before posting questions/problems because if you experience an issue chances are other people have as well and there's a fix.
Have fun!!!

Reflash... sometimes these things happen don't sweat it your phone isn't broke. I flashed an earlier build 5 or 6 times until it worked correctly.
If at first you don't succeed.....
I've just switched to ericwill's CM10 build from AOKP due to SOD issues and battery life issues.
No RR or SOD yet and greatly improved battery life so far. Been running for about 18 hours.
As a side note, I much prefer AOKP for its customization, but I'll take stability over customization any day.
Of course, YMMV.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989
I ran CM10 09_17 and AOKP 09_18 got RR on both and SOD on CM10, then i tried Paranoid 2.13(CM10) and its been great!! atm am on 26hrs uptime with no issues.
I've run BinaryBishops, AOKP, CM10, and now Paranoid 2.13 which I've been running around 27-28 hours uptime. Only one I haven't experienced any reboots or sod or any of the like was Binarys' but Paranoid is the smoothest by far. Camera, music, keyboard all super responsive, no lag I've noticed at all. Running stock Trebuchet and haven't gutted it like I normally would, delete what I don't use and the like. Binarys night lies seem to be on hold for whatever reason

voice issue

well i've tried cm10.aokp and miui. and seems i cant record anything using either the stock app or a download and if i do manage to its seems its really low or has a bunch of static. also in arket when i try to search for an app using my voice it just acts as if i didnt say anything or its not receiving what im saying if anything at all. i was wondering if this is just me or can anyone else confirm this. i had one other person confirm this on miui but on aokp and cm10 they just say those bugs were fixed weeks ago. any help is greatly appreciated
nvm it seems i have to put my face right next to the top mic like literally and scream at it on those roms for it to pick up anything. which is odd because stock does at a normal distance >.>

well i've tried cm10.aokp and miui. and seems i cant record anything using either the stock app or a download and if i do manage to its seems its really low or has a bunch of static. also in arket when i try to search for an app using my voice it just acts as if i didnt say anything or its not receiving what im saying if anything at all. i was wondering if this is just me or can anyone else confirm this. i had one other person confirm this on miui but on aokp and cm10 they just say those bugs were fixed weeks ago. any help is greatly appreciated

when i said stock apps i was correct since those apps are stock to those roms >.> and the other time i said that the aosp roms did work as well as stock did a.k.a tw. so both times i said stock were the correct usage in its own case.

Jittery/Jerky scrolling...

Is anyone having jittery scrolling with their rom?I am running jedi and I didnt clean flash 6.1.1 and dont know if its causing this.
Every scrolling; menus, facebook, xda app, etc. Except stock browser is jerky. When you scroll it doesnt stop smoothly it jitters. Not too much but its definitely there and made me realize it.
I compared it to sgs2 running jellybean and everything is smooth there...
Anyone?
I have noticed the same thing since I installed jedi as well. I noticed it once jedi 6 and the same with 6.1.2

So should I try to clean install jedi again? I so dont wanna do that cuz after I flash roms I do so much tweaking it takes an hour or more to finish.
You have it as well but someone else said on jedi thread that after he clean installed its gone.
Did you clean install the 6.1.2? Or just flashed on top of previous one?
Running CleanRom 3.3 (Chose Perseus kernel when installed) and its silky smooth
Its killing me. I installed jedi 6.1.2 with perseus kernel still jerky. I am running clean rom 3.3 with perseus now and still not smooth. Tried note2core kernel still same. Installed stock 4.1.2 with perseus still laggy.
Only tome I felt less laggy was saber kernel with jedi. However saber only supports fat32. I have 64gb exfat.
This is insane. My old sgs2 with 4.1.2 is buttery smooth.
I cant seem to find the solution to this. This really made me hate this phone. Seems like frame rate is so low tgat it seems jerky when you scroll down or up on settings, facebook, tapatalk or other apps.
When you scroll slow or very fast there is no jerkiness. Its there when you scroll medium speed.
You scroll and it jerks seveal times very shortly until it stops. thats why it looks like frame rate is so low.
Enabled/disabled force 2d, nothing changes. Flashed maybe 10 times yesterday. I always wipe cache and dalvik and factory reset. Flash the rom and do wipe chache/dalvik and factory reset again then reboot.
I cant enjoy this phone anymore since I compared to sgs2 and know this is not normal.

I would return the phone if I were you...sounds like a potential hardware issue. This phone is much smoother than the sg2 (and that was a smooth phone). Good luck and let us know how it goes.

I cant return the phone. Its not an option.
Also I dont agree with you this being a hardware problem. Stock browser runs buttery smooth even if I open a picture heavy website.

I think thats an app problem not the device. Stock browser scrolls just fine.

I have done a complete wipe and flashed everything from the start and it seems so far to be fine. Not sure if it was a dirty flash on my end or not?

Exactly. Stock browser works buttery smooth and I dont understand why other apps and even phone's settings menu jiggles when you scroll. Its not smooth as stock browser scrolling. I dont understand that.

Ohh I flashed clean rom and jedi so many times over and over again but ni change. However only jedi with saber kernel I was able get smooth setting menu scrolling but apps such as facebook, tapatalk, whats up isnt.
I compared tapatalk side by side with sgs2 running 4.1.2 and even though its not ios smooth its still smoother than note2.
Annoying thing is that nobody seems like aware of it. I cant believe you dont have the same jerkiness. Its just obviously a software issue and everybody running the same rom/roms should have it.

Well if they don't have that problem, it should tell you that perhaps it's something else

That's what I don't understand...no one else is experiencing this, yet when I tell the guy that it may be something specific with his phone, he says nope, that can't be right.

I'm experiencing this same thing but I'm on Jelly beer. If I could flash a different kernel I would but you guys should try flashing the asylem core kernel. You can overclock upto 1.9 on that one and it may help with the gitter.

Can you explain then why stock browser is very smooth? and why saber kernel is with jedi makes the android menu scrolling smooth? If everything was bad yes maybe I would suspect something else, also I don't think a hardware can cause jerky scrolling when there are codes in android that can adjust scrolling.
I was using sgs2 for a year and flashed so many roms and kernels, there were huge differences in scrolling physics. Some updates were jerky, some smooth, some fast, some slow.
Everyone's perception is different. I wasn't even aware of it it took me 3 weeks to realize this jerky scrolling. For some of you, you might think this scrolling is smooth but for my standards its not acceptable because I know it can be modified and changed.
I own sgs1, sgs2 since their release dates and know pretty much what a firmware can do to your scrolling....
