You lost the point. I'm not complaining about CM I'm complaining about Samsung lame implementations. They are gaining a momentum but it could be lost easily if they do not listen to their customers. Working with the community will bring them much more benefits than working against the community and this is something which almost all big companies just don't want to understand. (i.e. Nokia disconnecting people)

FINALLY! Thanks! I guess I'll stick to Darky's ROM 10.2.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] BabyHunter:
Hey Guys!

I use Build #70 at the moment and i have problems with the Go Launcher EX. ADW is very laggy to me so i switch to Go a few weeks ago. Works perfect for me until now.

I have some pixel issues on the default home screen. In the AppDrawer same too. I make a screenshot to show what i mean. The white pixels in the top corner on the 3G Watchdog Widget and on the left side in the calender widget. Try to remove and make the widget new, same again. When i switch the screens it turns to normal until i release my finger. Anyone else has that Prob?

Try reinstall Build #68 and #70, both the same.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mr. phillip:
Hi!

With the same build, i had the same problem, but only on a white wallpaper... try to change it to a darker one to see if it still stands...

It worked for me...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] BabyHunter:
Got it! I tried another wallpaper, but on grey colours it seems its the same prob. Make it darker and it work! Thx!!

I was going to try out the GB-loaders potential yesterday as I had to follow my gf to the airport. But CPU-settings doesn't seem to set at boot, at least not on FuguMod kernel, and it never went to deep sleep so it drained about 60% in 6 hours (mostly on idle, and I turned 3G off when I saw that 35% had disappeared in 3 hours). Not only didn't it go into deep sleep, it stayed on 200MHz most of the time. At about 40% I changed governor to ONDEMAND (was on CONSERVATIVE) and re-selected 800MHz as max CPU, then I saw in CPU Spy that it actually went to deep sleep again, and then changed it back to CONSERVATIVE. It has been good since that!

I fell asleep with the battery at 95, woke up with 77 or something after almost eight hours. Then the BLN had been on for at least two or three hours because of a text. I think that's pretty all right.

hey guys i just wanna tell how is my battery on cm7 #70.. with JVQ Bootloader!! OMGG its F**cking Awsome! i still have 69% of my battery after 7h and 20min of heavy use!!! this is even comparable to stock battery life!! i cant believe im having a good battery life with great perfomance finally!! i dunno if its the JVQ bootloaders or something with cm7 nightly build 70! but its damn good!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] beekay201:
this shouldn't have negative effects i think, even if set to 60 or maybe more. If we need to, we can scan networks on demand. I'll take a look at that flashable zip, seems like a nice clean way to do it for every nightly. It could be flashed from cwm am i correct?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] beekay201:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ristokoo:
I can't help wondering what's the state of the CM7 SGS development and its future? I see the nightlies coming steadily, and they usually work great. On the other hand, it has been stated often in this thread that the devs now concentrate on SGS2. The devs have pretty much left this thread, which I understand very well considering the discussion going on lately.

Until a few weeks ago, this used to be a good place to find out about where the rom is now and where it might go, as well as answers to technical problems. Now it seems flooded with pointless bootloader/battery debate and questions easily answered by reading the OP or doing a simple search.

I'm glad rschenck keeps on amusing us, at the same time answering patiently to ever repeating questions. Still, I miss the old nightly thread with the occasional insight of the devs;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] francomile:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Adevem:
Is it possible to implement the MIUI lockscreen into one of the options for CM7? I'll understand if not, I'm currently using the Lense lockscreen which is close but MIUI is more "feature packed".

[Phone][ Unlock ][Text] - pull respective tabs down to "jump" to it.

Charging % and colours(oooh) under the unlocking tab itself.

Shows alarm?

you'll understand what I mean if you've tried it out before!

don't hate me or tell me to use MIUI instead. it's all love here.

Hi, i think you most change GRJ22 with GRJ90 codeworkx?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Dr. Strange:
Well, I've seen very little, if any, progress of CM7 for SGS. Nothing major got fixed since... around nightly #20? Or was it earlier?

New exciting and unexpected bugs and errors appear all the time because of the advancement of CM7 for other devices, and these do get fixed. But as far as functionality goes nothing new in... months now?

CM7 on SGS is a nice hobby if you have the time to tinker with your phone all the time and solve intriguing puzzles. It runs very smooth (and has been running smooth since before the nightlies). But there's just too much to trade in for just smoothness.

I was reading SGS2 is getting HD recording. ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Ivegottheskill:
2G/3G switching got fixed in #61

Galaxy S is still sold and is in far greater use (by number of handsets) than the S2, I doubt the devs have "abandoned" it
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] siky_dude:
I don't care about zero idle drain when i have such good battery in use on froyo bl.

Froyo bootloaders for life. :))

Also, sending this from edge only zone...sooo slow. :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Red_Vex:
Isn't fixed. Always do FC phone if you use power widget.

This is the true fix

http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#change,6777

not merged and we don't know when
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dcarr622:
They have essentially abandoned it...even a question on Twitter I asked recently was replied to with a joking remark that basically said "we don't care about SGS anymore." codeworkx and atinm used to answer my questions before, or just ignore them. Personally I find it sad that they switched to SGS2 when SGS has a bigger user footprint (over 26,000 total nightly SGS users, way more if you count the pre-mtd users) and a much larger total device base of potential users. I personally will start donating again once/if they come back, we are in a decent place for CM on SGS as it is but there is much work to be done. I'm learning more but I won't be in a position to contribute to any Android project outside of app development for a long time.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dcarr622:
Interesting...just used the feature today from Settings and it was fine, but haven't tried power control in months. Wonder why they haven't included this yet?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Dr. Strange:
Oh yeah, true, I saw it got fixed, but users had mixed experience with it for a while. So it works now eh? Good stuff.

SGS might outnumber SGS2 but I doubt that is in any way relevant to the devs. They choose what they work on based on what captures their interest and SGS2 is new and shiny. Well, at least it is newER...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Mothamoz:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Adevem:
blame Samsung. smart marketing on their side for sure though.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] thaBuzzed:
I'd hazard a guess that what drives them in developing CM7 is more the nifty new tech in the GS2 rather than the prospects of making a difference to a larger user base with the GS.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] encho:
But that policy is not good for them in a long run. One day they will get tired of sgs2 as well - either because is too old or because users are complaining about battery drain or sdcard or... (no forum is immune to this). I would have considered choosing my next phone based on cm7 development for that phone. But now... I'm not that sure. If Chinese open miui, well, no reason to stay with cm. I might even move to iPhone :-*

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
It has become increasing clear to me as I have read the last few pages of posts, that cm7 on the sgs has reached a milestone. It is one we were told about weeks ago but we were in a bit of denial.

As the devs told us weeks ago, feature-wise cm7 on the Galaxy S has gone as far as it can go. For all kinds of reasons, not least of which are some design flaws that Samsung fixes in the sgs2, the problems and omissions we are dealing with are here to stay.

Sure we will see incremental improvements in performance and general usability as cm7 itself matures. Each nightly will get a little better but break a few things too, which will be fixed in the next nightly. However, the problems that are unique to the sgs hardware likely won't change.

As is natural and normal, the devs moved on to new challanges once they felt they had done all they could. In truth they stayed with this project for what on the internet is like a lifetime, and got cm7 on the sgs to a point few of us thought possible just a few months ago. They all did an AMAZING job and we are in their debt.

We need to accept the fact that like any ROM or mod, cm7 on the sgs has fixed and consistant advantages and disadvantages when stacked up against other custom ROMs. We can no longer keep saying that every hardware problem will be fixed in the end. They won't.

Yes, it is faster and smoother than any other rom, the Theme Chooser is great and the unique cm7 customizations rock.

However, battery life is not as good as some other ROMs and certain hardware features like the FM radio and TV out are broken or missing. Also, this ROM is not for you if you need high quality video.

The pros and cons are easy to see at this point. I am happy to accept the cons for the speed and performance and community of cm7, but that will in no way be true for everyone...just as with any custom ROM.

What does the future hold? As far as I am concerned it is still bright. We will see continued improvement as cm7 improves and hopefully we will hitch onto the Ice Cream truck when cm7 does. In this thread, some of us will continue to help newcomers and answer questions. We will continue as a user support community. Hopefully the devs will surprise us now and then with an improvement just for us submitted to cm7, and maybe some new people will try their hand at fixing the problems as well.

I continue to love this ROM, this community and this thread...but we have to accept that we are now in the phase where cm7 on the sgs is mature if not perfect. The crazy growth is over, for now, and we need to support the software as it IS, warts and all, for the foreseeable future.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] PAGOT:
you wrote all this on Tapatalk?!

and aint you a bit melodramatic (or how its called?)

there is still older devices with active CM7 support. All what it needs is a maintainer. A dev. Someone who didn't switch yet to the next gen :).

And I think there are some.. (or will be)

So I wouldn't say right away, that some things wont get fixed anymore. You never know...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Zatta:
yes, it is flashable through cwm. however, one needs to customize the two included .sh scripts to their own needs.

I also have made a script for gscript (light) that flashes the latest nightly and fugumod on your sdcard, as well as my flashable .zip (and it formats /system before) so that you can have a one click update but this script is under testing so not in that thread in my sig. If you are interested you can pm me.

Tapatalked u see
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
I completely agree ...and really hope someone steps up to take over. We do have maintainers...it is active development we may lack for awhile.

However for the moment the sgs is old news. In another 6 months it will be Classic. Then in a year or two it will be Retro. THAT is when we are likely to see dev interest agaulin, when it becomes a challange to port newer software onto it.

I live in hope.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rogerone:
That is interesting. What do you call heavy use? I did some browsing for 1 hour (autosync only wifi) and the battery went from 100 - 83%. I received so mails during the browsing and I looked at some photo's in the gallery. The screen is set to lowest possible intensity.

Could you tell me some more on how you achieved this?

Thanks

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pawitp:
If you know programming, the barrier to entry of CM's source code is extremely low. There are instructions on how to compile CM. After you make fixes, uploading the fix for other developers to review is as simple as typing one line of command.

I've previously uploaded the bluetooth mac address fix which was applied pretty quickly. I've also recently uploaded a fix for the orientation sensor which is being reviewed.

Note: I make fixes for bugs that bother me personally. Please do not request me to make any fix for you.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Vorbeth:
Knowing linux would help.

As for C or Java, it depends what needs editing to apply the fix.

If it's the core of Android then C, if it's a end user app or one of the jar files then Java.

So in reality, both would be ideal.

Battery drain due to e-mail

Hi

Build 71 is really good. Except.... :eek:

Unfortunately the battery drain due to the email client still exists in version 2.3.5. The Email app keeps your phone awake even the screen and Wifi is off. You phone with CM7 will not last more than 7 hours! :eek:

The bug is know but no developer gives a damn. So does Google. The bug exists for 2.2.1 to 2.3.5 now. Apparently Google finds the business customers of no interest or wants the business to go to Gmail what will never happen. :mad:

If you are a heavy email user and you want to use email the only thing you can do is:

- deactivate autosync

- deactivate background data

Open your email and refresh manually. Sorry. :confused:

Anyone wants to challenge Google and cry "Hurray resolved it!" putting the whole Google programmers staff in disgrace? :cool:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pawitp:
C, C++, Java. Though problem-finding skill (as in finding out which piece of code is causing the problem) is far more important than problem-solving skill.

Does any dev is currently working on cm7 for sgs?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Funnnny:
The core feature is pretty much completed (device-specific code), all other works (common works) will automatic merged with all developer of CM7.

So currently we have a lot of developer working on CM7.

It that case it isn't your phone's fault.

Battery life is gr8 for me, i get up at 6, get it of the charger, connect it to wifi, atch youtube, surf, play zenonina, go to work, use gps, listen to music. Take some photos, send them to facebook, talk around 1h a day, and when i go to bed at 00:00 it still has 25-30% left.

This morning I had weird thing happened, got my SGS of the charger and it was just stuck, screen wouldn't respond, keys eider. So had to take battery out, when i turend phone again battery was 100% full xD
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
Are you SURE that what you thought was in front of you wasn't actually behind you? Maybe you were facing backwards? Next time, look down...if you see your toes then you are ok.

Beyond that, the SGS is infamously crappy GPS hardware. Some people claim to get really good performance out of it by using all manner of arcane codes and fixes and strange apps they download out of the trunk of some guy named Omar's car. Personally I don't believe them.

GPS with this device will likely always be hit and miss. If you need it to know if that street in front of you will lead to Montmartre eventually, you will likely be fine. If you need it to tell you exactly where you are and that the next left followed by a right will get you away from the mob of killcrazed zombie pastry chefs chasing you...lay down and die in marzipan.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Necrolust:
Awesome :)

I just encountered some problems with zach's kernel and the same problem with bilboa (kang?)'s kernel, in that the phone would not wake after locking the screen. A hard reset by holding the power button down was required.

Gone back to Glitch's kernel (because of voodoo sound). Although, I did pay for the plus app so a kernel with voodoo is not required for my use... Which kernel are you using?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
This sort of problem is usually due to using UV on the lower clockspeeds. Some mornings the phone just can't get enough juice to wake up...I know how it feels. If it is a rare thing, no big deal...but if it happens a lot and you aqre using UV, try taking the voltage back up and see if it persists.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Necrolust:
Yeah I switched back to Glitch because it was happening even without UV on zach and bilboa's kernels
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Bess833:
Since CM7 now has BLN kind of thing and I bought Voodoo plus, I use the stock CM7 kernel. I don't want to use OC/UV and I can do without the rest of the functions from the custom kernels.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] FadeFx:
Ok, so here my last small complains:

I can not connect to most Bluetooth devices, it starts pairing, but it does not. Neither my gf's i5800 nor my parrot equiped kenwood car stereo. I however could pair with my q10air but not my Toshiba Satellite NB despite both have a Toshiba Bluetooth stack.

Still it is not possible to navigate on longer distances, since while navigating the device gets hot and stops charging. Then it has to cool down and reboot to charge it again. I have to say that i think the so called battery sensor isn't even near the battery, since the battery itself is far away from the temperatures the sensor shows and the device gets hot close to the camera, where i expect the CPU to sit.
