Thanks for the head's up!

Thanks been having problems with cwm and twrp

Hey blackwing182, if you have time, could you please port over sk8's latest recovery. He fixed up the custom zip maker and added a few other features which makes it nice. The latest version as of today is v14.4.5. I appreciate it. :fingers-crossed:

Please < FLASH AT YOUR OWN RISK> This recovery has Issues. I am working on a customers phone that tried flashing this recovery. It will cause issues. Random shutdowns,
Running backups in recovery phone will shutdown in the middle of running backup and last but not least... BRICK THE PHONE... I just ran JTAG on the phone and retried using this recovery and it had all these issues and bricked the phone again. Not trying to cause problems but be for warned..

I've never had any of those issues. I've been on Sk8erwitskil's recovery since tdj first recommended way back when. Sounds like seriously bad downloads on your end.

1- you are a bad at fixing phones, 2- this recovery was tested before pushing it the hercules users, 3- did you think that a recovery can brick a new samsung device? Please go elsewere, and try to **** up a customer charging it for something that never happen, shame on you and shame on your excuses.
No one.complained about it until now, all my tester gived me great feed back and they PM me about a new update. Heading up to a xda mod, i want this thread clean of garbage like you.

The Hercules 4.1.2 leak has not been leaked. So far all kernels and ROMs that claim to be 4.1.2 official are based off Skyrocket. Until we get our leak Skyrocket is our only hope.

External SD Card doesn't mount when plugged into a computer.
Basically everything is working on this rom except for video recording and external usb mounting. Also not all of the rom control features have been implemented yet, but I personally think this rom is daily driver material. I will update this as armyveterangunner29 updates his thread. Again he has done all the work on the rom, and all I did was fix the rotation for us, so make sure to go thank him for this rom, and thederekjay for his kernel!
Finally I'd like to thank Whitehawkx for starting, and continuing development, on our device. Without him we probably wouldn't be here, so make sure to thank him! If any of you want to use the most stable, and official, version of AOKP you can get it right here:

Without quoting the entire OP, I think you have the direct link to Derek's CM10 kernel, and you want the AOKP Aroma installer version to support this ROM.

the only difference between the two is one has the aroma installer the one i posted works fine ive tested it myself.
And to everyone who cant get camera working you HAVE to do a factory reset for the camera to work properly i know it sucks but at least youll have a camera!

original install with aroma= no camera for me, i reverted back to venom#666 and it fixed the issue..all is great in my phone now...these are my findings for my phone ..thanks alot JPOKeefe! i have my DD and yes it still is an AOKP..
I flashed this with the venom 666 kernel.
So far so good for me. camera works (although it has the green flash glitch on display - works just fine though and I can live with that), as does GNow+Voice.
Up until now, it was a one or the other type scenario where one would work, but the other wouldn't.
I'm restoring apps now, will try out a few things (netflix, youtube) later to see how they do.

Youtube seems to be working just fine for me, but I cannot get Netflix to play any videos.
Good ROM for a DD. Like others mentioned, Camera, Gnow+voice, Youtube work great. Netflix streaming is not working right now. Noise suppression is unchecked by default and needs to be manually checked once. I wish this was opposite after install. Can't wait for more AOKP features to be implemented. Great work!

Rooting friends gs2 today, Whats the newest root method?

My friend wants me to root his gs2 he just got.. I rooted my kids mothers gs3 for sprint few months back.. So i kno samsung phones are pretty easy to root but i wanted to kno whats the newest root and unlock method to use? im sure he on the newest base.. I want to unlock the bootloader flash recovery and root.. Thanks guys:good:
Well I welcome you're friend to the T989 community. This phone will be referred to as the T989 or Hercules, this is important to know when flashing a new ROM, etc.
This link will help you to initially root the phone. All instructions are listed in the link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1311194
As per flashing other ROMs, I would suggest you to install CWM or TWRP. The reason you should update is because the recovery in the rooting thread is quite old.

Well this phone is proposed to get an update but no one knows when.
For the best Samsung jellybean experience I would suggest you to use Jedi Jelly. It is sort of like the official Jelly Bean update but its ported from the Skyrocket (both phones are cross-compatible with most ROMs). Currently it has no kernels because it was leaked on the Skyrocket.
As per the AOSP experience, we have a wide range of flavors. The 4.2.x ROMs are pretty stable with only minor bugs which get fixed almost every week. Both are CM10.1, AOKP and P.A.C man ROM. We also have 4.1.x ROMs in CM10 which come in CM10, AOKP, PA, P.A.C Man, Slimbean, Avatar, and some more.
Most of these ROMs are very stable, and if you're looking for the nice one, which is my personal favorite, I'd go for Slim-Star: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2109841
HAHAHA! i cant get over how easy this phone was to root and unlock the bootloader! man in so done with HTC.. im jumping ship my next upgrade thats for sure:good: thanks for getting back guys

[ROM] Stock Telus T989DTLUMC4 [06.29.2013]

Hi Everyone,
I was searching through the threads looking for the official stock Telus T989DTLUMC4 firmware update. I was able to find the Odin flashable version of the update but I was not able to find one that is flashable through recovery. So, I decided to make one and share with everyone here in the community.
This is the official Telus T989DTLUMC4 firmware downloaded from the SamMobile website. I have rooted, installed busybox, zipaligned and deodexed. I am currently running it on my T989D Telus Galaxy S 2 right now and it's running great.
I don't intend to add any additional tweaks/mods to this ROM. It is meant strictly for people that want the official TLUMC4 release but don't want to have to flash via odin and reroot.
Also, if any dev's or chefs want to use this as a base for their ROM please feel free to do so, you do not need to PM me to ask for permission. However, I do ask if you choose to use this base in your ROM please give me a thanks/thumbs up in the OP.
INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS (If followed exactly as below you should not have any issues)
- You must be rooted and have TWRP 2.4.4.0 custom recovery installed
- Download and place the Infamous Cache Wipe and Infamous Super Wipe scripts from http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2235141 on either your internal or external SD Card. This will be needed for later. Thanks to @Jamison904 @thederekjay and Team Infamous for this fantastic tool.
- Reboot into TWRP 2.4.4.0 recovery and create a nandroid backup (Always do this step before flashing any ROM)
- Go to Wipe, Advanced Wipe and select Data, System,Cache and Dalvik (then swipe to wipe)
- Press the home button and select the Infamous Super Wipe Script
- Click on add another zip file and choose Infamous Cache Wipe
- Click on add another zip file and choose TelusT989DTLUMC4RootedDeodexed.zip
- Swipe to install all 3 files
- Reboot (First boot may take approx 5mins, be patient)
- Wait 10mins after first boot and allow phone to sit (do not log into your account)

Have you tried T-Mobile stock ROM on your telus phone? I was thinking to set up a T-Mobile ROM for my bf to flash but if the telus one is better and less bloated I'll give this one a try.
Can someone that have tried both tell which is better. I own the T-Mobile version and have only tried the ROM from Jamison.

I actually just downloaded the stock firmware for the Tmobile version today, was going to build a Stock, rooted, deodexed version for the TMo guys and gals as well. When it's up I guess you can give this one and the TMo one a try and see which you like best. Typically Telus has less bloat but also doesn't have wifi calling.

I would not recommend dirty flashing from ICS to JB. Make a backup first of your current ICS stock ROM and then do a full clean wipe and install.

I was going to suggest that as well, but needed/wanted to have yours or Jamison's permission before suggesting. :good:
No permission needed my friend...as long as no one reposts them they are free for anyone to use prior to installing a stock 4.1.2 ROM. Feel free bud!

This is a M919NUVUAMF2 4.2.2 Rom for the MetroPCS Samsung Galaxy S4 SGH-M919N
with minor modifications and only the modem and MyExtras_TMO.apk removed.
I built this Rom to hopefully kick start a little development for the M919N.
Please use it as a base with which to create Roms, Themes and Mods from our firmware.
Its also great for M919N users who want a fully working rooted and deodexed stock Rom
with only minor modifications that you can flash in recovery.

I tested this Rom a bunch on my M919N but could use a few more willing testers to confirm that it works as it should.

Please be aware if you are currently running a Tmobile Rom and then flash this Rom, you MAY run into the "Prevention Notification" issue. The current fix is to go to this thread Unofficial M919NUVUAMF2 Working!!!! and Odin the phone back to a 100% MetroPCS stock state, then install recovery of your choice, then flash this Rom.

Nice rom, but the only thing I had a problem with rom is the WiFi not working.
Im sorry about that. You're the only one to report this so far. Try installing again please. Thanks

Thanks for the screenshot, that helps a lot.
Please go to "settings/more/about device" and check the build number and the baseband version. They should be the same version.
If they are not the same, that is what is causing the "prevention notification" you are getting. Most likely the result of going from a Tmobile Rom to this MetroPCS Rom. They each have different basebands. There are two possible fixes I've read about.
The first is the easiest, just flash the Tmobile rom you were using before. That should take care of the wifi and "prevention notification" and different baseband issues. This means you cant use this rom though.
The second is more time consuming but if you really want to get this metroPCS Rom running this is what you need to do:
Go to this thread Unofficial M919NUVUAMF2 Working!!!! and follow the directions to return the phone back to MetroPCS 100% stock via Odin.
Then install the recovery of your choice, OUDHS, TWRP, CWM, whatever you prefer.
Then flash this Rom again.
Let me know how it works out.

Thanks for your help and you are absolutely correct! Unfortunately there's no radio zip to flash for our phone and I have yet to make one. I'm no dev, I just follow directions reasonably well. I have yet to find a guide to make a flash-able radio zip and honestly, I'm working on something else at the moment, so I haven't really looked. For now, the fix I gave is the only fix for this issue. In the future that will probably change. Thanks again for your assistance
I see a lot of familiar folks here. Nice work Arocker:good:

Hi Robcop,
Tmobile TWRP is what I use too, though there are versions that dont work properly for our phone.
Version 2.5.0.2 is definitely working for our phone.
Why dont you stop by here:
http://androidforums.com/metropcs-galaxy-s4-all-things-root/
Its a place for the MetroPCS S4
Check out the posts, including a thread that walks you through installing a recovery and easy rooting.
I look forward to seeing you there. Say hello when you do.
strange things are happening
I never had this problem before, I have downloaded the zip 4 times thinking I did something wrong with the process as simple as it is .lol
Used the stock my files app to copy the zip to the 64gb external sd card and even this last time I created a couple folders and put it in there although when I boot to recovery and factory reset then chose zip fromexternal sd card its not there and whats weird even more is I see an older file that I have deleted several times back again, its the root_zip I used with odin to originally root the device. Crazy huh I think the sd card must be damaged.
