MY LATEST W/ WIFI CALLING
SHADOW is a very resource conscientious ROM @ around 260MB... radio is about 40MB and is included as well as TWRP 2.6 recovery
1 minute Initial BOOTUP TIME
Excellent Use of all available JB partitions
Very light and even somewhat future proofed... How, you ask?
Well I simply didn't include apps that were in the /system or /preload tray that are easy to update on PlayStore.
So what ends up happening is our device has an old version in system/apps and a newer version is in /data using space and resources in both folders.
Gnow for instance will have two copies [one old one new] as soon as we update if its included in the system/app.
Don't include it and it goes to /data only and works like a charm.
That being said I made excellent use of these folders we have on 4.1.2 .
My kernel is included... I built it from from Samsung source for full function of our device. Of course the Rom is compatible with our 4.1.2 kernels uvmc6 found in our dev threads for our devices.

This ROM is Final
~~~Giving Thanks~~~
​ Giving thanks is important. It lets people know that their work or answer is appreciated. It is a faster
method of feedback than posting a reply like "Thanks for your answer!" You must have one post to
give thanks, so here is a good place you can do that: The "Say Hi" thread.
You can go do that now and come back and finish here please.
You get 8 thanks per day, and they renew after 24 hours or so. Each thanks is independent of the others,
so if you give someone a thanks at 3, and then another at 4, those will renew at 3 and 4 the next day.
If you run out of thanks, then save that page in a new tab and give thanks later when you have one available.
If you use them all every day you are doing it correctly.

Another classic rom from Rushing?! DLing now! Woot!

Nice to see another one of your ROM's

Back with a vengeance!! Always liked your stuff bro... :thumbup:thanks for your contribution to this Hercules community.

Not questioning, just asking.... What's wrong with Jedi? I've ran it several times in the past and never an issue. I only changed to go back to the AOSP feel / Vanilla. Everything Rushing has ever put out has been above par and right on task as a daily driver. I will say that he doesn't publish often, but when he does its worth taking a look at.
But like always, nandroid first and then test this out. If its not for you, no hard feelings, return to previous setup.

screen shots in OP now... I never tried jmt 6... from what i read there are lots of users. I predict this ROM to be more stable cause there is less going on, but this is still testing and not a final so we will see.

I will flash and report back tomorrow! It's my wife's s2 and ever since I flashed jmt 6 on her phone and she has been having small issues. And since she is not really that savvy with all this stuff she doesn't know how to fix it! I love jmt and have been using it before I went to AOSPA!
Glad you came back Rushing! The first custom ROM I flashed on my s2 was one of your ICS touchWIZ ROMs!

You could always after flashing this ROM, you flash a Telus specific kernel and radio!
That could always work, a lot of people from the sky rocket community flash ROMs from the t-mobile s2 forums they just flash their kernels and radios and it works just fine!

Bam very nice!

I'm sorry but is there a way to change the setting ui to stock color?
if not, thanks for great ROM

Rushing,
First, thank you for your hard work. I will be using this ROM as my daily driver.
I've been thinking about the UI recently and I see that you have power toggles enabled on your phone. Is is possible to create a MOD disabling the toggles and brightness bar so that power toggles takes the place of the SystemUI toggles? The reason I ask is because I think it would 1) be more visually attractive & 2) save space, the toggles and bar take up ~1/3 of the screen in the notification shade.
Also, I think it would be very efficient if the search key were remapped to recent apps.
*I know the things I mentioned potentially cause problems with stability but I think they would make good add-ons.:good:

Great room. Smooth. I have one question though. I couldn't get my Gmail calendars to show up. I downloaded Google services and even downloaded the Google version of the calendar. I checked my accounts and calendars don't show up to sync. I did a fresh install and used the wipe scrips.

thank you lokko, just a quick update posted. needs some tweaking still.
the green status bar dropdown icons just didn't go with the all white statusbar icons. so this will do until i get time to tweak it.
mostly they just need to be scaled down a bit i think. will address in next update. probably be a few days though.

Honestly i don't know if it will work on other roms. i just haven't tested it on anything but starburst and the mods were done to starburst files. there is a chance it would work on some others but i just havent looked at any of the others too see.
don't know if there are any changes in these files from rom to rom but if your feeling brave do a backup (either full or just the files listed) and give me a shout to let me know how it goes.
once i get it mostly finished in the next few days if enough people want it for a specific rom i might could port it over if it doesn't work. but at the moment im planning on pretty much just supporting starburst because that's what i use. and it's way easier for me than having to keep up with changes across multiple roms.
This theme is awesome! Thanks so much for your hard work! Are you planning on taking all the green out? That would be amazing.

Thanks alot. I figured there were a few people who would like something a little simpler without all the colors. That's the plan anyway to get rid of as much of the green as possible and get a usuable interface. I've got quite a big update coming in the next coupledays.
Starburst has extra xml edits and the android-policy.jar is modified heavily for starburst. You'd have to make a non lockscreen edition for viper and stock deodexed. If we're talking about just the systemui, it may work.

Thanks good info. I figured there was some major differences in the files I just never really spent the time to check what they were and see about compatibility.
I've got all the icons set up in a nice folder tree that should make doing it over again on other Rom fairly straight forward.
Maybe once I get the starburst version working and can keep up with its crazy update schedule. (A good thing for us users in my book) ill port it over to the other roms.

yup that was what was meant to happen.
when charging stops on your current battery percentage.
then rolls up to 100 to show it's charging.
but never fear a big update coming this evening.
then a version with an alternate battery icon.
then if you don't like that just let me know what you want it to do and i'll make another version.
or if you have something more specific in mind describe it or better yet find a pic of what it looks like.
i like requests i think everyone should have the phone look and act how they want it to.
and i was soo getting tired of all the green
Really looking forward to the update! Any chance you could use the inverted google apps next time around? They look fantastic if you haven't seen them you should definitely check them out. I think the only other theme using them right now is Honeyglow v3.
Nice cant wait!!!

Thanks again,

Jessica, was over in the the N7 forum checking out these two roms & it looks like the GS Bean dev is using Smooth rom as a base, so are they basically the same with the exception of the GS Bean having Touchwiz?
Also, I see you are using twa_priv's KF build as a base which has tablet UI & since both Smooth & GS Bean also have a tablet UI option, how does it work with these roms? In other words, which one kicks in?
Thanks,
Mike T
Checking this out tomorrow first thing. Thanks

GS Bean actually doesn't use Touch Wiz unless you install the theme and use the launcher. In the 3rd post, I list all of the features GS Bean comes with. It has a lot more features than just Touch Wiz. As for tablet ui, I'm not sure. I've never used the tablet ui in twa_priv's build. All I know is that in aroma, when you select tablet ui, it installs some framework files and Nova Launcher.
Those who criticize our generation forget who raised it.

Ok thanks. I did see the framework files when I extracted the zip, guess I'll have to play around with it and see how the tablet ui goes. As for TW, it looks pretty cool, think I'll install the theme & check it out.

Just installed this ROM last night, so far so good. Thank you
Installed the G Sbean rom this morning and I like it. I did run into a couple of small issues, one being a force close of the stock browser. I chose it in Aroma but it appears that it failed to install. I grabbed the browser.apk, pushed it to /system/app manually and it now works.
The other issue was with settings/storage. Every time I opened storage, I got the error "package access helper has stopped", clearing cache/dalvik and multiple reboots didn't fix it for me. It turns out that "DefaultContainerService.apk" is responsible for that function, so I extracted it from Hashcode's CM10.1 rom and replaced the existing apk. That took care of the error.
I did install the Touchwiz theme & it's pretty cool, looks really slick. Followed your instructions re: changing the dpi to install and it worked great. Also, there's a lot of good stuff included in the rom, I especially like the ACID & Pimp My Rom/Seeder mods.
Thanks again for porting this, it's a real nice addition to the existing KF roms. One last thing I noticed is the kernel is 3.0.57, does this kernel contain Hashcode's reverted USB commit from 1/15? That made a huge improvement in the tablet sleeping.

Jessica said:
I uploaded this built a few days ago. I didn't notice the problems until after it was uploaded. I have a newer build with those issues solved, and it's updated with twa_priv's newest build. I'll try to upload it tonight. As for the stock browser, I never use it so I didn't know it didn't work. I'll fix that and upload asap.

Flashed SmoothROM last night and absolutely love it! It's running silky smooth and have yet to run into any kind of problems. I'm going to test it for a few more hours today, but must say that I'm loving it so far.
Is there any way to implement volume butons next to the navigation buttons ?

I haven't tested this rom yet but on other 4.2.1 roms you have to go to setting/about and tap the build number 7 times to get the developer options to pop up and then you will get to set usb debugging
Stupid question... Is it possible to install TableUI after the rom is installed? Do I just go back into TWRP/Aroma, reinstall without wiping, but choose TableUI?
Love it so far!
Thanks.

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

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.

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.

Reboot
And rate 5 stars if you enjoy .
thanks xda
This ROM comes with customizable boot animation.. Nexus sounds and ringtones. Also comes with Nexus 4 touch u. I. sound . Custom .ogg startup and shutdown tunes.
A few visual customizations. And a lot of tweaks. Its odexed so its very responsive after the cache builds its very fast almost like the apps are already open while giving great if not superior battery life to that of the usual deodexed system apps found most commonly in custom builds. So clear benefits are battery stability speed, ability to further customize and not have to deal with the blasted water noise as much. Its still in the dialer which is enough of it for me.

O_O i have a question, on the sourceforge website it says that the rom is 402.6mb, but every browser I use to download it tells me it's 383mb.
IS there some kind of mismatch/problem with the rom? Can I get an MD5 to compare? Sorry, I'd rather be safe than sorry xD

Great man! Rushing is back. Nice to see you back. Silence the haters.
Got the power button repair serviceman paid... tomorrow it ships out. Thanks for the info and from some key donations from the past I have 90 percent of the total cost covered. Needless to say more will come after I get the device back and am bored with my old but super fly SGS4G a.k.a t-959v.

The android.policy I tested with if I remember correctly caused a crash of everything with the odexed apps. Power toggles on the play store solve the fourway reboot and of course flashlight. You can use the widget section to use the teslacoil torchlight widget which is way better than any I've had before there is no delay and its all customizable from icon to widget to app color and even size I really like the little a pk power widget. . DL it and try all of it and you might just find all you need. I did

I am loving this ROM so far, going to try and port over a theme.
Is there something else I should do when themeing SystemUI.apk/framework-res.apk in regards to the odex files?

System ui is odexed and when that's true you need to pull a deodexed system ui apk to theme. settings.apk may be odexed as well. should work fine as long as you use deodexed apps when you theme
Meaning you can use a deodexed app in place of the odexed app you wish to theme

[ROM][4.1.2][10/8/13][modem][recovery] FINAL_CRYSTAL_SKULLS

A=A PRODUCTIONS PRESENTS
WHITE_BLOTTER
MY LATEST W/ WIFI CALLING
Touched Wizz =]
WHITE_BLOTTER is a very resource conscientious ROM
1 minute Initial BOOTUP TIME
Excellent Use of all available JB partitions
Very light and even somewhat future proofed...
didn't include apps that were in the /system or /preload tray that are easy to update on PlayStore.
So what happens is our device has an old version in system/apps and a newer version is in /data using space and resources in both folders.
Gnow for instance will have two copies [one old one new] as soon as we update if its included in the system/app.
Don't include it and it goes to /data only and works like a charm.
That being said I made excellent use of these folders we have on 4.1.2 .
My kernel is included... I built it from from Samsung source for full function of our device. Of course the Rom is compatible with our 4.1.2 kernels uvmc6 found in our dev threads for our devices.
Code:
THANKS TO THESE PEOPLE/GROUPS, THIS ROM IS POSSIBLE. @iBotPeaches - Without Him Decompiling and Recompiling any apk is near impossible. So we must thank him for his ApkTool.

exposed, yes.. some exposed mods werked like color tweaks but in the end I took them out for various reasons. I hope to one day see that they are completely stable with one another.
for instance if you pile on too many as one would naturally assume you get probs.
