[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bravoleader:
all are talking about this RIL update....

i was wondering, what the heck is this RIL problem? Is that so important?

on a sidenote...which is the stock cm7 radio? i switched to JL2 but i'd like to give the stock another chance as i hardware fixed GPS. (pls provide DL location)

thanks

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] runedrune:
there is no stock radio. whatever you already have flashed is what stays when you flash cm7.

the locking unlocking screen problem whenever you boot the phone. or when the camera has a black screen. that stuff.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] brujoand:
JVK is the recommended and default one for now.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] brujoand:
This changed when we moved away from initial.zip? Because earlier there was always a modem with the initial zip.

Thanks for the guys a few posts back for clarifying it for me. If it's not an AOSP feature, it will not be included. Good, I didn't know that. Again, thanks.

Anyway, I was talking about Nokias to give an example of the use of the FF Camera and how mainstream it is. The ONLY reason for a FF Camera is video calling, nothing else. It's a very common feature nowadays and I just wondered like the friend before me who asked about it if, one day, it would be part of CM7.

Thanks for the replies anyway. No need to get offended lol

No, there is definitely some problem regarding battery life. I get three times longer on any other ROM with the same app installed and similar settings. The one thing holding me back from CyanogenMod now is it's ~12 hours battery life. I can easily get a day and a half out of any other ROM.

I know you are saying that poor battery life in CM is not specific to the SGS - but I must disagree. I can only assume that SGS and LG 2X BOTH have battery issues with CM.

Ok, ignore glaring issues that render the phone next to useless. I didn't complain, nor was I forcing my point - I merely pointed out that a major problem still exists.

What use is a ROM if it means you need to charge your phone every 12 hours? Double that would be acceptable.

I did try that, and even with minimal use it was difficult to make it last 12 hours. Does anyone get a reasonable battery life with CM? I'd assume from what Codeworkx said, no one does at the moment :-/

Another side effect of this is that you are essentially killing your battery twice as quick because you are almost doubling it's charge cycle...

But hey, it's not even in RC yet, so I guess there's plenty of time left to fix problems.

I reported few weird behaviors yesterday about Battery level increasing/dropping, backlit switching on automatically. I am experiencing few more..

1. When I am continously operating the phone, something weird happens, the dialer starts automatically. Actually now that I think abt it, it happens even when I am in some application, the bottom left part of phone is pressed automatically and phone starts behaving erratically. Only after lock/unlock, the problem is solved. Anyone experienced it?

2. I've purchased ROM Manager premium but is no use. Whenever I start downloading ROM (or even addons like Gapps), the phone reboots. Any soultion will be appreciated..

Still exists for me. Reconnecting every 30 secs
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] brujoand:
I agree with you, but I think we are both wrong. Bear with me. 12 hours of batterylife is unacceptable for most people. And this is what I get at times with CM. The reasons for this is hard to find.

But what I always discover is that flashing updates and kernels and modems several times a week isnt all that great for your phone. **** gets moved around, apps have issues, kernel scripts are left behind. All sort of mayhem.

What I did right now, was to backup all my apps with titanium backup, wipe my phone, format /data and /system, flash the latest and greatest + gapps, and restore my apps with titanium backup. This has always bumped my battery performance when playing with CM. We cant really blame CM for this, because we are the ones doing all the flashing. Try to do a full wipe, and leave your phone for 4-5 days without flashing anything. If the phone still cant give you more then 12 hours, I would suspect that your battery is borked. :/

I've been on cm7 since the -9 nightly came out and I haven't had any issues with the battery at all. It's been about the same as the Samsung ROMs I've tried. I unplug the phone when i get up in the morning at around 6:30, and when I go to bed (probably close to midnight), it still has anywhere between 30-50% charge left. I could probably make one and a half days if i really wanted to, but I charge every night because I don't want it to die on me when I'm out and about.

I don't do anything crazy, nor do I have any sort of task killer/juice defender or anything. I leave 3G on all day and have push notifications set up for my Gmail. Plus I'd say that it gets moderate usage throughout the day.

Samsung roms might be a piece of **** and CM7 for SGS a piece of gold. But it's a fact that right now cm7 has real battery problems, it doesn’t matter if you compare it to a Samsung rom or other android phone. I don’t know why some people try to deny that….

However, the rom isn't even at RC stage yet so I guess we don't have to get too much worried because of that yet.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] deputynl:
With regards to battery usage. It does seem different. It has used about 4% percent per hour for me today. (data disabled, drive of 45 minutes with bluetooth connection to carkit, sat in my office for the rest of the time with full signal (-75bdm)). The interesting thing is that I had an 8 minute phone call, which used 44% of the 34% battery that I have lost so far (7 hours on battery). That seems to be a bit much.

Over all what I see is that the radio uses a lot of power. With my data connection enabled and nothing synching I can't make it through the day.

Also, the mail application keeps the phone awake when the dataconnection / wifi are disabled after synching manually once. I suspect that is an error in the mail application (which is rumoured to be solved in 2.3.4, so maybe CM7 is not up to date?)

Sometimes the facebook application also keeps the phone awake when there is no data connection after having used the application.

Bit of a long story, just want to be complete. If you need me to test something specific, let me know.

Cheers,
