I honestly think your got issues with apps or need to let batt cycle. I get 26hours on bn16 with 3 hours screen time. Wifi on. Batt life all depends on signal in area and how much you use your phone. I would also recommended using CPU spy to make sure your SGS is entering deep sleep. Btw Screen on+3g is what kills battery. U use phone it will go flat fast.. simple. And if I hear "but on a Samsung rom I got blah blah" I am going to lose it.

@runedune

thanks, but what does it mean? file is missing in cm7 source?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Dr. Strange:
What? WHAT?! So, wait a minute rschenck, you are saying I didn't have to go through Necropolis for that damned chip after all? All I had to do is flash one of the darknightlies on my pipboy?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kar200:
Thanks Stepic. AFAIK the build bot uses the same method we use except it is...a buildbot?

Like if there is a baseband issue it should also be in the nightlies except if some changes were made after.

Anyway thanks for your tips. I evantually fixed the modem one (the error was too clear not to be fixed :)) and talking about the libsec-ril.so I have to admit that I did see one file missing when I used the extract script (did not bother at the time as I was on a roll).

I will still give this a go.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DocMAX:
why has extract-files.sh been introduced?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] runedrune:
Nah it's there but in a different location. Linked the second post too just to show that he couldn't get it to work in case you wouldn't want to try compiling right now.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kar200:
Again this is from my understanding but CM can only distribute open source/GPL content. So the extract is just all the closed source binaries that are pulled from the phone using ADB so they don't have to provide them or give you a long howto on what you need. so the script just pulls all these nice stuff for you and put them int the folders needed.

Similar story happened when I used CM on my HTC Magic. CM used to provide the gmail apps with the rom but then Google got involved and asked him to not do it (Can be found Here)

You don't know what are you talking about.

Call recording will not be implemented because they are not able to do it. Not because they don't want it to.

And speaking of modems....I assume the JVO modems linked here can be flashed via cvm onto cm7.

Anybody tried it yet?

I have been hearing rumbles that JPY is about the best modem battery wise for cm7, any sign this new contender can steal that starry crown?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] runedrune:
i'm using it right now. it's too soon to give a report. :p
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] joaoennes:
From my experience there is no best or worse modem relating to battery. It depends on many things like: your phone setup, your use, where you are (country...), etc.

The best way to find out which one is the best for your phone is to trying more than one.

I consider JPM, JPY and JVK the best for me, but for you could be different.

I'll have a go to JVO.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] momevil:
Flashed JVO approx two hours ago. Coming from JVK my first impression is there is no big difference in battery life. but thats just an impression - 2 hours don't mean much.

Please add me to the failed list :) I jave been able to build the whole thing (thanks stepic) but I end up with a no baseband issue as well.

woow,BastardNightly 16 workin almost 1 day perfectly on SGS
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stepic:
rild and libril.so haven't changed recently but our builds contain different versions

and if we would replace these two files with the nightly versions?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kar200:
I was using the latest nightly when I used the extract-files script. This means the 2 files should have been the latest ones. Is that correct? do they both come from the phone?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Corvillus:
Yeah I ended up just leaving local roaming on, which seemed to fix the issue. The issue was likely that Fido is a secondary brand for Rogers, and the association probably wasn't picked up anywhere by the JV6 firmware (so it sees Fido on the SIM but connects to "CAN Rogers Wireless", so roaming was assumed, same problem someone earlier in the thread was having with an MVNO).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] KingMetal:
Nightly 16 works great.

Together with jv6 modem.

It,s like batman and robin.

Great combi
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DvTonder:
I did the same thing - both files extracted from my phone running the latest (#16) nightly. You can also manually extract them from the update.zip file which is what I did with libsec-ril.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stepic:
They don't come from phone (check extract-files script)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DvTonder:
I see what you mean. where is rild though?, I donit see it at all. Maybe copying them manually from the update.zip will work?

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DvTonder:
I think you are on to something.

It looks like rild and libril.so are both built from source, not extracted from the device. That means that our builds are likely using the open source RIL not the Samsung RIL which, if I am not mistaken, is the one used in the codeworkx builds. and we have a mismatch of files most likely.

Not sure how to go about testing it though - maybe one could copy the 0530 files into the update.zip generated by our builds to see if using matching files will work?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dhurk:
ok i found,this modem files appyling like roms - install via cwm ? (i talk about jvo.zip)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Esoth:
I think I must be misinterpreting this... don't you have to be on froyo to install it anyway?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
Yes, but we are discussing changing to CWM3 in ROM Manager so that ROM Manager can see the Nightlies...Froyo uses CWM2 I believe.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] runedrune:
Checked. Yes they can do that. There's a whole list of phones that comes up. If you scroll down to the bottom it'll say Galaxy S MTD. Select that and you can select 3.0 or 2.0 (They'll show up either way). Then CM-Nightlies will show up.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] latino147:
Same with me! Wifi uses less battery.

So what's the truth about WIFI and Basebands (modems), is the wifi connection (quality and power (=battery usage)) dependant on the baseband or not?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
Good Guess....

I do not know 100 percent, I would assume that fixes that work with Samsung architecture will just sputter and whine with CM7...or explode.

One of the two.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Esoth:
Yeah, like runedrune said, you can do that - I flashed CM7 via the ROM Manager myself. It gives you the option when you select Galaxy S MTD
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] latino147:
thanks!

I also had choppy recording, went to the settings and they were already on HD30, tried a movie and it's not choppy anymore. Maybe the default setting changed in a new nightly?

That's strange, if CM7 was build from the ground up, with custom kernels etc, why is that Ginger-bug still in CM7?

:D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sptorrent:
Ok, thanks for your reply. Indeed, we could lose baseband, and that modem comes in handy!

@runedrune

Hi again

So I completely formatted the system Cache data and datadata. Fired up bastardnightly and did not install anything. The phone appeared to sleep when I turned the screen off.

Then I installed the gapps zip from the cyanogen wiki. Then the phone stopped sleeping. I disabled automatic backup, auto sync and even background data but still it would not sleep?

Can I ask what version u updated from and how, as maybe there is something left in the system from a previous version that would help with this?

Cheers

Yep, battery life sucks! I was on DebusROM and I had 3 days (almos) of uptime on battery. Now I'm at 86% from 96% in one hour :D not using the phone to much (only voice calls, WiFi on). But it's much faster and responsive. Maybe battery life will...rise :)

Oh, why am I getting a force close on media right after the phone boots up? This happened right after I installed CM7. If I don't "click" Force Close at the error dialog, after some time the phone reboots. This happens only one time at startup. After I FC the media, everything works fine.

Google Apps or ALL your apps?

Just Google Apps is normal, don't worry about it.

If it is installing all your apps, then when you set up your Google Account your checked the box that said Restore your Apps from Google.

I usually prefer to keep that unchecked, in order to avoid sudden massive downloading when you aren't prepared for it.

I think, you are confusing theory with real life. I have tested this several times and found that when I am at work wifi drains less then 3g. Everywhere else though 3g drains less.

You can claim that this is not the case based on the specifications of wifi vs 3g, but you are simply wrong; You can not apply only theory when assessing real life situations. There are many factors which can play a role here. For instance the hardware we use, the network we are connected to and specially the drivers used for wifi and 3g.

EDIT: And I see that you were actually not claiming that it is not possible this time. Well. I guess my post might clear up some confusion anyway :P

This link: http://xdaforums.com/search.php?do=process&searchthreadid=1061946&query=http will give you the latest posts with links in them, look the first couple of pages over before posting a question for some specific version of CM, a special modem, etc. Chances are that it has already been posted.

The looooong boring version

So, I have been following this thread the last couple of days and noticed a lot of issues with people not being bothered to look back a few pages in the thread or search for links (and in general asking the same questions over and over). As several of you have pointed out (both politely and more direct) this seems to flood the thread with less useful information. I have been thinking about solutions for this, but the possibilities are limited. One simple solution was some sort of wiki, where people could collect the most frequent asked questions, or a place to post links which could be voted up and down over time, such that the newest and most useful links would be easier to find. Anyway, I have done nothing of that, and my suggestion is not new or groundbreaking in anyway, and will probably not solve the problem, but hopefully ease it a bit.
