Weekly ICS Update W/C 14/04/12 - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Ok, my post last week was a feeler to see if anyone would be interested in having such a thread. So lets try this for real! But I will need your help community!!
What this thread is to consolidate our experiences with ics roms related to our t989 , in no way is this a discussion board or Q&A this is purely info on what
is happening
whats working
whats not
what is worth flashing to
bugs
fixes/temp fixes
can it be used as a DD
battery life
I think this covers all the essentials, now I will make a new thread every week as to avoid congestion or if not continue posts and state w/c on post..
Now most would have or not flashed to the same rom now I don't need everyone to post about the same rom and give the same feedback unless if there is something that no one else has wrote (so read up everyone!). This thread is only a short term thing as ics is still new and fresh until consistent roms are made available we can keep tabs here on whats happening in the t989/ics world.
Cheers.

I'm in

I think you should list and organize things as people post information and instead of making a new thread every week, update this one. In addition providing a link to the corresponding ROM.

I'm sorry if I haven't done the appropriate research but what's the current status with ICS.
I looked over in the development and it looked like there were a few builds. What are the big differences between all of them? Any more stable than the others?
Thanks

Well we need a kernel source for the T989 period. And that Should fix the biggest issue ICS has on our phone which is the Backwards auto rotate which effects the screen display pictures and whatever else is mapped to the Gyroscope.
Second biggest issue that is reported, but I have not had would be the voice echo in phone calls,I have not had this but some say you can cancel the noise reduction setting and it fixs it but I can not confirm that.
This is reported repeatedly in every thread so maybe that can be highlighted so people stop reporting it.
I hope this helps somebody
bty any AOSP or MIUI rom are not recommended for daily use. I am just saying this cause I seen somebody in Ravers AOSP thread just buy and T989 and wanted to use that rom as a dd and it is not.

hmm.....getting closer?

What's the source on this? Obviously this would be great news for getting us a more stable daily driver, but I'll remain skeptical until I'm proven wrong.

Most forums would respond with " hey that's cool can't wait until it comes out" but here you'll get "who's your source?" ,"stop with the ICS news it will come when it comes" or " yeah right believe it when I see it"

[KANG][CM7] Unofficial/Unsupported

I also want to let you guys know that I personally flash these ROMS before posting them to make sure they are safe. With that being said, you flash them at your own risk...
*Disclaimer: These builds are in no way meant to replace the nightly builds, just to bridge the gap when the bot isnt building. I am not a dev, and these are not approved by our CM guy. You may post bugs with these builds, in THIS thread only. They will not be addressed, but noted. If you flash these builds, do not post in nemith's "official" thread anything concerning these build's.
OK, lets try this again I deleted the other thread because I didnt want it to be a source of drama for us NS4G owners. Everyone seems to get along here, so far lol. I will build whats in the repo, the chances of things being broken are pretty high. I was fixing things in the previous builds, I wont be doing that this time, these will be straight off the CM git. So, with that here is todays build...only thing Ive found wrong with this is the 4g toggle, of course...
Official gapps HERE​

Well Thanks for the effort
Sweet! Love the freshness

I would like to see this thread locked, BUT keep the OP updated daily/whenever you update. There is no reason to discuss bugs or things since this is an unofficial build that will change nightly. This thread should just be info and the download imho
Just my .02 anyway.

I disagree, keep it open. Not so much a place to discuss the bugs as it is just to post them so people now what to expect. If a build doesnt boot, etc, I would rather someone else find that out and post it. That way 20 people dont have to boot to a very broken or non functional build.
Not to mention every single CM device has a "kang" build thread, that is also left unlocked.

I would have no problem with that. I dont think I can edit the OP if its locked though. And there wont necessarily be a build every day. Just under these circumstances, i.e. no build for 4 or 5 days and tons of new commits. Not saying its a common occurance, but it is known to happen.
Fair enough, didnt think of it that way

I myself would like to see it stay open. Mikey has done alot for NS4G users and takes time to help others figure out when the help is needed. Whats it going to hurt having this thread, for the users who relate. It's just my opinion as well.
Woohoo. Good to see it open Mikey.
. . NS4G . . CM7 . .
I didn't really think of the not booting / lots of issues / things like that. I know mikey just mentioned something about keeping drama down and I thought it might have been a good idea. Obviously 2 sides to every thought process though. Its one of the reasons I love this forum
Seriously, this is the best section I've seen here at xda. I want it to stay that way. The reason I closed the other thread is because there was concern these builds and this thread would cause issues for nemith in the "official" thread. I don't think that will be the case and ask that everyone do their part to make sure we keep them seperate. Thanks so much guys
So, the build posted is legit. No issues that I've seen. Can't wait for working 4g toggle...

Mikey, I think you did this right. Thanks for all you do.
My alarm clock turned itself off twice last night with this rom. That, or I had one weird dream.
Having technical difficulties, if someone else wants to post a build, feel free. Just make sure you dont change anything, and that its not gonna brick anyone You can PM me a link to add to the OP, or post it and I will copy it to the OP along with the name of the builder. This goes for anyone....

The first rule of CM is NOT TO ASK! It will come when it comes.
Besides the camera and wifi wont work until HTC releases the drivers for them or someone writes new drivers for them. Both of which wont be any time soon.

Undetermined; just shows all the changes made to the rom. It'll be released when its done...just have to check it periodically. You'll know when, because it'll be all over xda.
Not asking for a release date just info about the Rom, and more than anything whether or not there will be an open beta. The camera and WiFi are non issue with me and hell we had broken WiMax and hw004 camera issues for almost 8 months with 7, but there were still nightlies.
Wth am I looking at on that post lol. I was dur when I saw all that. Is that a change log of the future lol.

Ics is cm9 for evo 4g pretty much if you think about it.

CM9 will come when it comes. There are plenty of 4.0.1/4.0.3 builds in the dev area to hold you over and many of these development are working from/with/are part of the CM9 code. If you were in Fight Club would you talk about Fight Club? DON'T ASK, DON'T WONDER...if anything it makes devs irritated that people are violating the imposed rules.

I think we all want to know when CM9 will come out... but if you do at least a little searching you will know that they are not updating with progress. CM devs don't really like to be bugged about progress. Like someone else said, first rule is not to ask lol.
Yeah, but the rule is "Don't ask for an ETA.". OP said very clearly in his post that he's not looking for a date. I believe he was hoping to read about some of the progress, at least thats how I read it. Also comparing Cyanogenmod with Fight Club is not really a fair comparison as Cyanogenmod doesn't hide and ask that no one tell anyone about the CM builds. Besides all that, this post was answered with a link to the progress page in the third post.

All I get there is "Yahoo API is down, please try about five minutes later."
I'm also curious about the current state of CM9 for the EVO, mostly so that I can know if it's worth the effort to attempt to build myself or not. I'm surprised I haven't seen any CM9 kangs floating around.
People need to chill the **** out on the "don't ask for ETAs" thing. People get curious, relax. Zero news makes it seem like a project or a device is abandoned. A weekly or monthly "still working on it" update is totally acceptable, but when the last we heard about anything was months and months ago, we get antsy. I know nobody owes me anything. But if you want me to give a ****, don't be a big crybaby when we wonder what you're doing. It only means that we like what you do, don't bite the hand that (kind of) feeds you.
This message is not directed at anyone in particular; mostly the zealot followers who like to regurgitate "the rules."

Technically, it is. For the nexus 7 the Google developers are holding in their hands.
Not "out" as out to us, though.
Sad to say but threads like this, asking for JB roms will be the new "should I buy a gnex" trend.

Sdk != source, so there is no compiling. It will be a severe hack job, even worse than buying a non-nexus device and porting over an different device's software (I.e. sense to a galaxy s2, etc).

I meant for my post to both be a satire on noobs (myself included) and a thank you to the devs. I know Jelly Bean isn't out yet, that was the whole point of the post demanding a rom already. no need for comments like "noob is right,lol" Lighten up. And as to this post being a question, the question is there, just forgot ? after ("where our stock,deodexed,zipaligned 4.1 JellyBean rom is?)
Come on now, you know there will be a leak within a few days.
My prediction is that a leak for the GSM model will end up here very, very soon. Someone will port it to the CDMA model but it won't have any cellular connectivity. In two weeks we'll have our CDMA OTA leak, by the end of July we'll get our OTA but none of us here will need it.

Starting a thread in the Q's & A's section, writing a buttload of incoherent gibberish and having not one question in it, what did you expect the outcome would be?
There's a whole lot of butthurt here, and on every web forum for that matter. Grumpy, elitist, snobby attitudes have been cohesive with web forums since BBS.
Yeah, it should have been in the General section I guess, but I did see a question mark in the post, which makes it a question.
The Gnexes that Google is giving to the IO attendees are getting an OTA update today with Jelly bean. That means we might be able to get it in our hands in a few hours!

Random nonsensical gibberish with a [?] before it, doesn't make it a question. It was rambling, which would be better off nowhere rather than anywhere, but I guess it could have been put in the general section where there is a buttload of nonsensical gibberish regarding this and that.

Anyone want to test my rom?

hey guys, i just modified the liquid smooth rom cause i was bored.
all credits go to the liquid team...i really didnt do anything hard, and i dont consider myself to be a real developer now.
just wondering if anyone wants to test it out to see if it works, and give some feedback.
http://www.mediafire.com/?zj1dfa69nmyewzn
Changes made:
-removal/replacement of a few apps
-build.prop changes
-changes to updater-script
-changed boot animation
Like I said, I didn't make this to make a more optimized version of liquid smooth. It's more of an experiment/attempt to learn a bit.
Thanks.
btw gapps arent included.

How about you test it out yourself before asking others to risk trying it. Just a simple piece of advice.

Feedback:
Who'd want to "Test" a rom from a non-developer, when there are many that are from DEVELOPERS, not to mention the Liquid Smooth was developed by a full team. This to me infers that you are better than a team? Oh well, if you want to try peeps, go for it, but remember, it was done by someone who says he was not a developer.
like getting on a bus with a legally blind driver!

i clearly said in my original post, that i take no credit for this, and that all credit goes to the liquid smooth team.
By test i didnt mean to go through the whole rom and check if every single thing works. Im just asking that you flash it
and let me know if it boots fine and doenst have any major issues.
like i said, im not trying to promote this as the best rom for the s3 that everyone should start using.
no need to get all pissed...it was just a simple question. If you dont want to try it, why even post?
i understand your concern guys, but blind development happens all around XDA. if this guy today had a "Recognized Developer" tag, i bet many of you would try it out. don't underestimate the OP.
that said, make sure you do understand that there is a risk since this is a blind development, although i doubt anything would go wrong since this is just something the OP took from an already working ROM for the TMO Galaxy S III and tweaked it a bit...

+1. We can do without the drama guys. The OP is doing absolutely nothing out of the ordinary by developing blind. Yes, it is always a risk for testers, which is why he posted this here looking for the willing. If you don't want to try it, please move along and stop flaming each other. :good:

Thanks. Like you said I doubt flashing this would cause any harm. All I really did was change a couple apps and replace some pics in systemui and frameworkres.
Just make a nandroid, flash the rom, let me know if it installs/boots properly, and then just restore your nandroid.
My apologies go out to the op. He did make an effort to further improve an already outstanding rom and asking for testers is KEY. It's a great start for experimenting while increasing your knowledge on the more advanced aspects of android. Will give this a try once my S3 is fully charged!

Considering that its possible to modify firmware images and inject custom malicious code, I don't see anything wrong with questioning someone's motives for putting up a ROM that they admit they don't even remember what changes were done to it. I can understand if you think you've improved upon something but without a change log or anything there isn't really any reason to test it. Being cautious is not the same as being an ass.

Oh no, I wasn't aiming that towards you at all. It was just a general statement. Now let's stop spamming this thread with off topic posts
Everybody has a point to start. May be this is his point.
I swear if I was fan of 4.2 roms I would do it for you. But I already had too much headache with 4.2 roms.
Dont forget to ask original dev before you modify his work like this.
Gud luck ahead.
the rom has 6 downloads, however no one has given any feedback?
if anyone flashed it could you let me know if it works ok.

Hey everyone, John is very upset right now about what has happend, I will not go into details but currently his account is closed and all his threads have been closed. I have opened a new thread here for us to keep up communications about RootBox until this is all handled and we get another official thread up. Links for download are also up here!

John is fine and still building. Never fear! Rootbox is still here! I'll just be letting you guys know of new builds till it is all worked out.
Please do not thank me in the thread I am just helping a great guy keep you guys on an amazing rom.

Dunno what happened and I'm not going to presume, but just to clear something up that people seem to have a giant misconception about; John didn't create RootBox, so of course the other RootBox threads wouldn't be affected. He maintains the build for the SGN2, not the other devices as well. He just adds an additional flavor to the SGN2 RootBox with PUB.

Thank you for that, and to add to it: John doesn't jsut add in PUB, he is the OFFICIAL Maintainer for this ROM for this device.
Since there is no explanation as to why John's account is locked, is it something that could possibly be a reason to stop using this ROM? Like a security issue or something? Malicious software? I'm assuming not as his work is still allowed to be here just not him...
I love this ROM and hope all works out for him.
No by all means you can continue using the rom. just no support as of now.

yeah, dont let your imagination get the better of you...he obviously had some issues with the mgmt here, so dont worry about his software being "the problem"..
