Please fix the Email client issue with battery drain on no data connection. I forgot to switch on my data yesterday and today I waked up with almost no battery.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] FadeFx:
Even if you slip around on your knees and pray for a fix, devs wont give more attention to this bug than they do now, this bug is a known issue and i guess it is an upstream cm7 bug.

external storage

hello everybody, can somebody say if i must activate the new checkbox under "cyanogenmod -> appl. -> use internal storage " if i want to use my external sd card (emmc)? Or does it means this version is using the external sd card as standard path?

If i mark the checkbox, the description changed from "using removable card for apps and media" to "using expanded internal storage for apps and media".

In my opinion the external storage card is now standard storage point!?

WCDMA Carrier Name

I have searched this forum and CM forum, haven't been able to find the answer on how to make CM7 look in spn-conf.xml for carrier name or have the carrier name altered in lockscreen/notification bar. WCDMA networks shows up as numbers ( 302610 vs Bell) where as the GSM networks shows up as name. Not a big deal but just curious if anybody knows how. None of the apps such as CCname etc works and putting eri.xml in the /data/ folder doesn't work either.

MIUI does look in spn-conf.xml but CM7 doesn't from the looks of it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Virnik0:
It has to be merged to android first. It is already very long time ago, since Android was just "simple" bunch of patches to GNU/Linux kernel. It's sources are far too away from it. Now it is more like another Ux-type system, from the same family with close relations to his father, Linux.

Ive been on new nightly all day.. (11hrs and some mins) and so far no problems.. everything seems normal... with moderate use..

I have the same issue.. and although it doesnt harm nothin it bugs me for some reason... would love to see a fix...

Hey guys I have a massive battery drain here, everytime I kill apps with advanced task killer I get 8 to 12 apps killed, now I've restricted the processes to 4 maximum, I will check it back after its fully charged. BTW the android os uses about 30%.

Does anybody have a solution :S ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] upichie:
I believe this is that gingerbread os bug thing. I'm pretty sure restarting your phone fixes it, at least until it shows up again (which seems quite randomly). Someone else probably has more info for you.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jscurtu:
Well, what does that have to do with the kernel? It sounds more of a missinstallation ..

You should try to wipe dalvik and set permissions.. check and see if something is wrong with your installation... (or to keep it simple, fullwipe ,format and reinstall through recovery)

If you think that will go away by installing experimental tweaked (unsupported, unstable) cm7 kernels.. go ahead and try.. but after that, please use the proper forum for your further problems.

Here would be the wrong place.

This forum should be official only!

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] brujoand:
I agree with you, and i think codeworkx does to. I suspect the devs are just fed up with the hysteria about battery drain. And I think he is pointing to the fact the there will always be someone saying "omg battery drain is horrible" even when battery drain is very low.

Just listen to all the people claiming that modems make a huge difference. They do not. Ofc there are slight difference, but the temperature in the room makes a difference on your battery as well as the signal strength on your network and so forth. A lot of people forget this and start wild goosechases to find "the fix" for the battery drain long before all the bugs are out of the system. And these tiny bugs that are left might be the reason why CM7 for the sgs eats more battery then the rest. For instance the RIL-bug.

All I am saying is that if I were a dev on CM7, I would be fed up to :P
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] eeney:
Not doing anything out of the norm, don't use the 2g/3g option. Today I just noticed that I had 'no service', after a while I tried a reboot and now com.android.phone keeps crashing making the unit unusable.

I turn data on/off using Tasker but this has been working without issue for over a week with CM7.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] atinm:
Oh, we're sorry. We though having our links point to "Experimental Mod" on CyanogenMod forums and the fact that we basically say this again and again in the forums would have clued you in. Regardless, consider it "advanced" now.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] atinm:
The biggest gains will come with being able to put things to sleep. It requires driver mods because we have a hodge-podge of code. As more devices get Gingerbread, we'll have more code to look at and figure out battery drain. We are working on it, have made some progress but not enough, yet.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] atinm:
You are welcome to contribute. Really. We even have the instructions to do that posted.

But, since you just want install instructions changed even though using Stock Recovery always required putting an update.zip in the ROOT of the sdcard anyway, we'll change the instructions for you so you are not confused again.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] opica:
I've flashed CM7 yesterday (had several stock roms, insanity and darky's before) and I must say it's the best rom I've tried - fast and fully customizable.

I noticed some bugs:

- softkeys backlight stays on after receiving a notification (thus I disabled messages notifications) - post by josteink - solved, thanks, my bad

- after running a landscape app, some apps launched after that also start in landscape (rotation turned off) - however if I press home key while on home screen, it's back to normal

- sometimes if I open app drawer in LauncherPro and then press the back key, it doesn't close it, a swipe then does

- sometimes the screen becomes laggy when turning widgets on/off

- GPS doesn't work - doesn't get locked at all (will try angrygps now)

Nevertheless I'm very happy with this ROM, can't wait for future updates and hopefully stable/final version soon.

Will definitely donate something to the devs. GREAT WORK! THANKS!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] atinm:
Don't install CM7. Please.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] atinm:
Sometimes life just sucks when you wake up in the morning. The problems are persistent, do go to another ROM. This isn't for you as we require some browsing in the threads, the FAQs etc first. Thanks.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] josteink:
For many users this is actually a much awaited feature. It's definitely not a bug.

If you don't like it, go to Settings/Cyanogenmod settings/Interface and tweak led notifications to your liking there. Basically go to the default category (Miscelaneous) and just set it to "None" if you don't want it.

Do we use wifi drivers from Samsung, or some os drivers? If we use Samsung drivers eventually dxjpa drivers could be a good idea to use, since they worked best with froyo roms and saved a lot of battery...

I've been using CM7 for a while now and all I can say is that you rock guys!

Been recommending it to every single one of my friends and they've all liked it very much!

Though this ROM is still in development stage, I believe it's stable and good enough for everyday use and it's a stable release IMHO! Although others are complaining about the battery drain issues, but it's not a big deal in my opinion!

I mean what the heck! Getting rid of Samsung ROMs is already good enough for me that makes me forget about slight bugs in this! :-)

I'm a programmer my self and I can clearly see how hard you are working for all this.

Kudos to all of you guys.

You're the best!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] drakenabarion:
Still loving cm7 after a week. Had no major problems and anything that was a problem was mostly cosmetic.

Although since the 09 update, I am occasionally asked for my sim password randomly. I see others also mentioned this so just posting to let you know.

As for battery, it has been greatly improved. I wont comment much on it until it has been running without an update flash for a few days, which, with current progress, may not happen for awhile. (That's a good think IMHO ;-) )

One think I notice about the battery is that its able to drop from 66% to a out 33% fairly quickly, but the remaining percentage lasts a much longer time. Either way I can get a day of mid to heavy use just fine, and the battery hasn't had time to settle between flashing so it must be working well.

Now that's more about battery that. I intended to post. My reason for posting was to mention the need to re-enter the sim code.

Look people, when we say battery life is great, we mean compared with all the other cellphones in the market

It's a relative comparison, not an absolute one

Don't expect your cellphone to last 4 days of heavy intense use of Angry Birds or whatever else you are doing

If my cellphone lasts me through the work day with me using all the smartphone features I expect (Email push, internet, Google Reader... internet features) I consider myself happy.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] aoprea:
it's not necesarly to flash separately...

i put all files/folders from gaps zip inside INITIAL zip and voila ... all apk's from gaps work very well.

Beside that i put in INITIAL /app directory and other apk that i want to be even i reset to factory defaults (adobereader, brightnes level, facebook, microbes, root explorer, tapatalk, trafic-counter, wifimanager, yahoo im and mail, etc) ....

and i steel have 25 Mb free on /system partition

i don't want to install every time when wipe phone

If I in any way was guilty of starting this battery drain discussion related drama, I apologize and will do my best never to cause anything like that again.

So how about that development stuff, could-be bugs etc etc, eh?

Let's just say that the recent updates have had lightning fast boot-times compared to earlier revisions. I'm not sure if something deliberate has been done here, but (at least on my phone) it's very noticeable.

Well with jvo i lost like 10% in idle per hours, with JPE 2%. Modems make a difference
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Bhonka:
With JVO I lost 10% in 5 hours with 3g/data on...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
Again....modems have very little real effect on battery life. Certainly not enough to cause an 8 percent shift. I have had more than 10 different modems on this phone and never seen a really signifigant change in battery.

Either you are imagining the difference (which is easy to do) , or these is something else responsible for it in tandem with the modem.

JVO has been working just fine for me, no major battery shifts.

Hi there,

i've installed CM7 from 95 nightly and can't install google maps neither from the desktop link or android market.

How to install google maps? Where i can find the latest google maps compatible with CM7 and Galaxy s!

Thanks a lot.

well if you cannot download maps from market, or you dont get them by installing pack, just do this:

unpack, search for /system/app

you will find maps.apk here, just install it like any other app and you will have maps :)

Don't seems (even there are a lot of changes) that there is something relevant.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Esoth:
Had a bizarre incident.... for the last few days, things like the system would force close occasionally, but this morning (for no particular reason, I didn't flash anything) I had a bit of an FC storm. Apps were force closing left right and centre! First, Dolphin Mini fell, followed swiftly by GO SMS, then Youtube (which I wasn't even using). The market also decided that it wanted in on the action. Of course, I also tried the stock messages and browser, but the same thing happened. Oh by the way, I'm on nightly 93 with gb bootloaders

Here's what I tried, in sequential order:

0) EDIT: Forgot to mention, I actually tried fix permissions first, but that didn't help.

1) Reboot (solves a surprising number of issues). Result: Didn't help

2) Cleared cache, reboot. Result: FCs continued

3) Reflashed same nightly. Result: FCs.

4) Cleared cache, cleared dalvik cache, reboot. Result: FCs

5) Cleared cache, cleared dalvik cache, format /system, reflash nightly. Result: Bootloop

6) "Oh crap."

7) Restore 3-day-old backup to older nightly. Result: Finally booted, no FCs. But because I'd flashed gb bootloaders since this backup and it was an older nightly, /emmc didn't mount, so:

8) Reflashed nightly 93 (the one I was on when this all happened). Result: No more FCs.

I'm not sure what fixed it along the way or what caused it in the first place, but I'm just happy it works now. Hopefully if this happens again, I can figure out an easier way but I guess it's good to have cwm backups in the bag.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] upichie:
Apps store data there. If there isn't sufficient free space when an app requires it, force closes result.

I would like this ability as well. Storing contacts on the SIM is a very handy feature.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Esoth:
So this might be a stupid question, but is there a safe way to clear space in /datadata or to know if a particular app is hogging a huge chunk of space there?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Einride:
In adb shell (or terminal emulator on the phone):

busybox du -d1 -h /datadata

Should give you the sizes of each folder (each app) and you'll see how much space they're taking. Games are usually the culprit.

In some cases you can try moving one or more of the apps to the SD card, but not all of them frees up space in /datadata even then. If that's the case, uninstalling something is a solution. Or rather, "solution" I guess.

Also, search is your friend. You're not the only one to experience this in here ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Red_Vex:
I've 20 mb free on datadata is this enough?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] madd0g:
For now, but it might get filled up soon. Move larger apps to SD.

So, does enabling the external SD in newer nightly move all internal SD storage to /mnt/emmc?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Esoth:
Thanks for all the help (and also thanks for not immediately slamming my query). Just for the record I did search the thread earlier, but I must've missed the adb part. I'll give it a shot.
