Nightly #51

CWM: 4.0.0.5

Installed via RomManager with dalvik wipe and GApps (as usual). The changelog tells a story about implementing a log file viewer but i cant seem to find that one. Seems that it mostly bugfixes in this one :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mr_at_sgs:
I can say, CM7 has currently a very good battery life. I am very satisfied with more as 24 h normal use.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] TheNikkoMan:
While cm beats out all other roms in performance, usability and customizability, it lacks battery life. I am on vacation, so I needed good battery life. Therefore I flashed Criskelo 75, and I was ashtonished. With medium-low usage, my battery has hold for nearly 4 days (and I have serious drain when playing Unblock Me, so it could probably have been even better)! I was lucky to get 30 hours with cm, at most.

Don't misunderstand, cm is still the rom I miss the most, and the one I will flash when I get home. However, it's not nearly as good as stock for daily usage, because of battery life. Why, when I have cm I have almost as poor battery life as my fathers Optimus 2x :P
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] xero2002:
I guess this is not a CM7@SGS specific bug, but ever since installing and uninstalling a few themes for theme engine, the theme chooser shows a wrong number of available themes. It shows six, even though I only have five. After 4/6 it jumps straight to 6/6.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Bork84:
I have that bug to... got it for a long time... dont really mind...kind of funny showing 4/5 when I have only 3
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] drakenabarion:
There is a theme there without preview. You can select it by moving slowly between the numbers.

Sent via XDA Premium app on my GT-I9000 running CM7 (GB 2.3.4)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] greglord:
And this is exactly why I'm leaving CM and going back to some custom deodexed 2.3.4. Battery beats everything.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Elle233:
Well, for me, performance and features come first. Then Battery. You seem why I'm tied to CM7? No way back to Photoshop or stock ROMS for me
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ffoo3d:
what about fmradio work? It's working strangly on rc1 and jvk modem. Need to use speaker to'make it work and sometimes it works only for 10 sec. Also Fm frequency tuner is wrong, it displays wrong Fm frequencies, and can't tune per .1 mhz.

With fm radio working at 100% cm7 for sgs wouldthe perfect rom for this phone.

Cheers

Guys, does anyone else have the problem with the WIFI sleep policy? Ever since i use CM7 wifi slows down and then gets stuck complete as soon as the screen turns off. It's really annoying, i can't download files properly :( And yeah I've tried tools like keep WIFI alive....
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kmrdeva:
Like you, I can't go back to stock or Photoshop roms too. Hence why I have a 2700mah battery now to power my cm7 beast :) all the juice in the world cannot make up for lost time waiting for phone to do things, for me..

Nightly 50

Using build 50 I experienced the following issues:

- telephone does not ring but the caller goes directly to the answering machine

- after using the keyboard during a call the phone locks up and I had to take the battery out. :confused:

Continue testing....
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] siky_dude:
You should put the sleep policy to never ... if that doesn't work, change kernels. Try the neo series.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sago62:
Hello guys, I installed cyano froyo from 2.2 .... sees wireless networks but does not connect to internet .... Can you help me?

thanks ....:D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sugar 7:
yeah !

CM7 very good battery drain now !

Thanks the devs !
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Herman76:
Did you use the correct password?

Double check!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sago62:
noooo ... hangs up the wifi, but not sailing
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Neon87:
I use my sgs with data on all the time.. I tried 30-31 nightly and I didn't reach the end of the day with normal use (from 7 am to midnight).. Now the situation is better?

How much does it consume per hour? Thanks for the info!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ock:
Just got notified of a 07082011 nightly.

I suppose it should be the same as #51

EDIT: Yup, same md5sum :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] android53:
As long as you don't use 3g too much it should last allot longer than it used to.

I'm on #49 with a few custom tweaks and battery is lasting twice as much as rom's #1 through #35'ish

Idle 1% drain/hour max, even with 2g and sync

it its also almost, if not the same as samsung rom's now, seriously well done dev's!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] worly:
Thanks for the reply!

Of course I've set it to never and saved, it didn't work tho.... Then I tried several tools like keep wifi alive... no luck either. So I tried Fugumod, no change on it, again :( But I'll try Neo as you suggested... i'll report back.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] siky_dude:
hmmm...what custom tweaks?...

please...share...

Anybody know of a simple and quick way to change LCD density to 200 without having to edit the build.prop file manually every time I flash a new nightly?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] J_Force:
Some news available on the bluetooth issue?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mr. phillip:
Try Font Changer in Market...

Works for me...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] funkateer2:
Do it with nitrality avaliable for free on the market.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] siky_dude:
Ummm ... to my knowledge Bluetooth issue was resolved a while ago. If that doesnt work, use a custom kernel...that should do the trick. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Aqua1ung:
With nightly #49 the alarm doesn't ring anymore when the phone is in silent mode: I was late for work this morning 'cause I relied on my GalaxyS alarm (like I always do). Is this a bug, or a new "feature"? I always put my phone on silent when I go to sleep at night, and I've never had this happening to me .. that is, until now.

Edit: and yes, "Alarm in silent mode" is ticked...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jeffng09:
Hi quick question,

How do I flash from the newest miui(more specifically galnet version of miui) to the newest cm7 nightly?

I know miui is based on cm7 so do I just format system & cache and flash it over in cwm or do I need to go all the way back to froyo?

Thanks.

Stupid response on my part.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jeffng09:
which kernel would you recommend? And i don't actually have to format /data and /datadata right? just /system and /cache
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] codeworkx:
Why not use silent hours instead of muting?

Set start and end time of silent hours and everything is fine. ;-)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] matematic:
Do you know where I can get the samsung stock email client for CM. The google stock one and the CM one are draining the battery when data is off. I don't know if it is bug or 'feature' :).

Or if you can suggest any other (good) mail client with Exchange 2010 support may be :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DROCSID:
With Font Changer, change density and Font in one simple click, reboot

ét voila.

I'm looking for the same thing, my company doesn't support IMAP / POP,

only protected Exchange (webmail/owa/oma), but can't get it configured

in K9 mail, grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

Did anyone check this out?

[ROM] CyanogenMod 7 for the Samsung Galaxy S :: V7.1.0-RC1 (26 June 2011)

Is it better than nightly?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tb5...:
seems like when i plug my phone in to charge using my laptops usb... it just heats up the phone...

my phone only charges through the wall charger...

anyone have this happen?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Red_Vex:
I just recommend last nightly #52.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Red_Vex:
I've no notebook but with my desktop usb it charge normally and also heat.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cicer0:
Any noticable bugs on #52 or is it safe to flash?:)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tb5...:
im not talking about a little heat... its pretty damn hot and also it doesn't charge.

im hoping flashing to 52 will help.

:\

if not i might hope off cm7 ... i need the camera and sd card got formatted on cm7
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Bork84:
RC1 is like nightly #40 and #41

all the nightly's from there and up are based on RC1

so nightly #52 is RC1 base + fixes
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cenonmin:
Is there a link or place we can go to so we can see outstanding issues for CM7. I just want to see what the other issues are before I take the plunge.

Also how is the battery like at the moment? I do not use 2G/3G only wifi so how long should a full charge last?

Thank you.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cicer0:
Well, i keep my settings pretty minimalistic - i have data off, pretty much everything else off, no sync, no push notifications, almost all the time on 2G, screen brightness on 30%, minimalistic black theme, i charged the phone today in the morning after 1 day and 8 hours - 5% juice left. And i used the phone quite a lot, setting up everything. So i guess i will be getting about a day and a half of moderate usage, pretty sure i could get 2 days of light usage. So, battery duration is acceptable for me now:)

Camera is (in my opinion) not as nearly good as it is on stock roms, that is really a shame. Video recording is sometimes choppy. And i also miss saving on external SD.

I also cannot change the setting for waiting call in Settings > Call settings > Advanced (it gives me an error).

May have forgotten something, but this is still the BEST rom i've used. I just really hope that camera will get better.

I'm on #49.

PS: oh and yeah, GPS could also be better, it's hard to get a lock, i use gps essentials to get a quicker lock, but it still takes some time on CM, had no problems on other roms - could get a lock under 10 sec. I've changed the modem from JVK to JVO - still the same.

edit:

changelog for #52 says: 'extends volume button zoom to video mode * code simplified * key up sound prevented'

this does not work for me
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] XE3X:
Same thing here

Any ideas ????
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cenonmin:
Thank you for all the very very useful feedback, exactly what I needed to know. For me the GPS is the video/camera and GPS (especially) are the deal breakers. I can get GPS locks in under 10 secs as well in custom GB ROMs but it was hopeless in Froyo (never worked). So O guess I am staying on custom ROMs for now. Thanks again.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] siky_dude:
well...i get a fix on 10 satellites in 20 seconds...that`s not bad if you ask me...

meh
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Tuhoaja:
Okay thanks now I got it.

CM7 Nightly here I come! ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cicer0:
Well, i must admit i didn't test it thoroughly. but in the same conditions on darky's rom i got 5 satellites locked in under 10 seconds - that is on the top floor of the building, inside a room:) now i don't get a lock (i can see up to 7 or 8 satellites) if i don't get out - and there isn't a cloud in the sky:)

but it still seems better than on the CM#19 which i used before darky's, i almost didn't get a lock, and if i did, the navigation wasn't working properly - stopping or jumping around.

i guess it's working differently from user to user - i am also one of the ones that suffer from pinkish greys at low brightness and some do not - and none of the rendering options suits better than default. i will consider some other kernel if things don't improve for me when stable is out.

sorry for long posts:)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jurguh87:
hello i've got a small question.

I'm on build #23 and to flash the newest i first have to flash another kernel in odin but do i need the Nexus S drivers for that or just the samsung one?

thanks in advance
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Aqua1ung:
Thanks, I'll give silent hours a try. Nevertheless, the alarm not ringing while phone muted should be a bug not a feature, right? (It does vibrate though, but no sound.)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] siky_dude:
install both just to be sure :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Herman76:
You need the nexus drivers for that.

Your phone isn't Samsung anymore when you have Cm installed.

Any singtel users from Singapore here that can recommend a modem for best reception and battery life
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] xero2002:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kinghorsey:
I use TouchDown. It's not free but it works.

Of course, you could always hold out and wait for RIM to release their updated BESX server addons that will supposed support iphone and android devices....if your company goes for that. :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] detlef25:
Try turning off USB debugging, afaik it keeps the phone from sleeping when connected to a computer.

will try that out... never had this problem before...

thanks though.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rogerone:
Build 51

Battery life is better on this build. However some strange power drops of 15 - 20 %. Do not not where they come from.

Email still uses more power than all processes. Keep awake 5h on 20h of usages/stand by. Could it be that even when the option Deactivate WiFi when screen turns off it is active because i receive mail?

A short list:

email 35% :eek:

display 25%

cell standby 12%

android system 7%

phone idle 5%

voice calls 3%

Activation of wifi, gps and BT take a bit of time.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Dorilife:
Ok so yesterday i was bored and started flashing a few different roms, i actually had tried CM7 nightly #45 but kept loosing baseband if i flashed a different modem, i can't use stock beacause i dont get more than 2 bars signal and only run on 2g

I know the signal problem is the modem but if i try to flash a modem from the cm7 page or the last few post on this threa i loose baseband.

Yesterday i tried on latest nightly and same problem..

I read abit about some sims not being compatible with MIUI or CM7

But ive been on MIUI for atleast 2months and flashed at least 5 different modems and never lost

Baseband...

I have to try re-downloading maybe from another source..

Maybe my file is currupt but i doubt it..i have 2 of same modems and same thing happens

Any insight will be greatly appreciated.

Btw i was trying to flash KC1 modem.

guys i ve question about toggling between 2g/3g. When im using 2g i deactivate internet connection than change to 3g and i can not connect to 3g/H. At this moment i reboot my phone and 3g is working well. I did it many times. Only reooting give me oportunity to log to 3g. Any solutons ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] siky_dude:
try my thread with lots of modems

:D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Dorilife:
Thanks :D

I actually got the last modem from there but no luck..

Ill give it another shot as soon as i get out of work..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] manjee:
You seem to be a victim of the email bug : AFAIK it occurs randomly when you have an account syncing and lose connection.

It can be because your wifi disconnects or because you are using an app like juice defender to turn off the data... Or not ;)

Hope that helps.

Hi guys,

what major issue still occurr with this rom, last time i tried it i was having issues with 3G/2G switching.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] prembox:
Go to ROM Mgr settings and check the Advanced Mode option.....thats how you get the "Add Zip" option enabled. You don't need a Premium Licence for that...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] prembox:
Yes, this bug is still there. Dev's can't help it as the solution lies with Samsung's proprietory stuff which it cannot share with the AOSP community. In reality the 2G/3G toggle works....albeit you ensure that every time you want to toggle.....TICK THE DATA CONNECTION OFF....or it breaks your phone.....as an afternote, i want to add that it doesn't really help being in 2G only mode as I found that it wasn't improving the battery perf in anyway....I'm not subscribed to 3G though. Dunno how it works but while on 2G only mode, some of the apps utilizing my 2G only connection were often running the CPU @ 800 Mhz and were drinkin the battery... so it's better not to get anywhere near the 2G/3G toggle... if you need it that badly then you look at other options....CM7 ain't the one for you...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pawitp:
You need a premium license to enable Advance Mode.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] galaxysdev:
The 2g/3g bug is on all samsung cyanogenmod phones. Including nexus s. So we are not alone;) Problem is in the cm framework so it works on miui and superaosp(no cm framework).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Red_Vex:
But it can be resolved or it is hopeless?

At least can be added a popup that say "deactivate data connection before switching" to prevent break the phone.

Sounds like you haven't set it up right. Have you selected what version of CWM you have installed in ROM manager?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jaiiscool:
Poor guy! doesnt have a clue!!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rogerone:
Thanks for the reply.

Question is how to get rid of the bug. Is it only on my phone or does it involve all builds? :o

As to WiFi: on my HD2 version of Android I have a menu in Settings called Security that shows all the rights the applications have and you can redraw these rights if you want. That would be pretty handy to determine which app is activating the WiFi all the time so a whole list of apps fire up. :confused:

I have not found a app on the market that offers this possibility this way.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] manjee:
There's no known procedure to solve this other than not disabling datas. This bug affects every rom, including samsung's one.

For the permission stuff you have to enable a setting (in development?) then you can enable or disable permissions in the 'manage apps' settings by touching the description of the permission. Be careful as many apps will FC when denied a perm.

I bought ROM manager last year, when I decided to try new ROMs, can you believe I never managed to install even 1 ROM with it, including CM7, it is just a rip off...

ROM manager installed its own CWM, I used SpeedMod to install CM7...

I even tried advanced mode, it just reboots changing nothing... :mad:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Herman76:
And what version of CWM does your ROM manager say you have installed? (it should be v3, if set to v2 it won't work)

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Herman76:
No, that is your actual CWM version.

Automatic install of CWM is not supported with ROM manager on sgs. You have to manually select in ROM manager that you have CWM 3.x.x installed.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] siky_dude:
haters gonna hate :7
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Vorbeth:
The point he is making is that although he has CWM installed Rom Manager requires that you 'flash' another CWM.

What people don't realise is that nothing is ever flashed, it just downloads a fakeflash package and boots from it. This package is stored on your /sdcard and is never flashed. Booting to CWM via menu or 3 button will not take you to it.

I do sort of agree though, why buy Rom Manager when it is easier to actually flash via CWM.

Support koush, but avoid Rom Manager.

You can all flame me now... lol

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] frauhottelmann:
No, ROM Manager does not require you to install another CWM! You click on install CWM choose i9000 and CWM3 and then it just knows that you have CWM. And now you can use it as usual.

Hundreds of people in this thread use it nearly daily, so it can only be your fault if it doesn't work! :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Vorbeth:
I stand corrected, although that is how it did work, still does on HTC devices.

Still my point stands, Rom Manager really is not needed.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] frauhottelmann:
I agree with you, that it's not really necessary ...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Zatta:
Melorib disappoints me. He has been around here for ages and still doesn't know how to use RM.

Once again, RM just needs to be told you have CWM (made by the same guy who makes RM), it doesn't flash CWM.
