I tried but still get pinkish greys.

But nevermind me I can live with that.

(answer to the post below):

Thanks for the hint xan, I'll stick to stock kernel for now as it doesn't bother me as much, but will try if it will start to bother me, probably when stable will be out:)

Most recent nightlies (11&12) both give me some random WiFi activity like connects for 30 seconds, disconnects, reconnects and keeps going on ... back to build 9 for now as it seems most stable as far as connectivity is concerned. Anyone any idea what I could be doing wrong?

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] codeworkx:
Right.

It's a new and easier way to go from samsung rom to cm7.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] deputynl:
In that case, I think the power consumption probably can't get much better. The radio really uses by far the majority of the power. Means CM is doing well. Let's hope someone helps you/us get the radio in low power mode.

Thanks

In case you are still interested in feedback on battery and stuff like that, I'll just hand a link to my post earlier in this thread:

Not expecting anything magical to happen, but in case you missed it, it might be useful :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] atinm:
Can you repeat this, and can you click on the graph on the battery usage page as well and take a snap of that - it gives more detail on usage. The first screenshot doesn't seem to look right - maybe an artifact of the snapshot, but take that again as well.

top output is only giving instantaneous snapshot at the time you did top, so not that useful if you had the screen on at the time because it seems to think the ui is up (and therefore the display) when you did top.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] boarder.2k9:
Does this work for you when the screen is off? Even though wifi sleep is never and wifi is left on, after around 40 seconds it stops (as if it has been given the pause command by the OS). It worked 100% on froyo and does on Samsung GB roms.

Before you say: NO I HAVENT INSTALLED ZACHs KERNEL. I do not have any of the powersaving scripts or anything like that. It isn't juttery playback, it seems like a pause.

Would love some help as i miss tunein the most going from samsung to cm7.

****IGNORE THIS POST*****

TuneIn Radio is awesome and yes, it does work when the screen is off if you have the wifi sleep policy set to never.

To be honest I haven't tried this App yet on CM7. I will over the weekend (Gothville Radio for the win) and let you know.

Just tried with 2.3.4 cm7 and it works!! Amazing, never could get it working in the previous versions.

Just installed it. I love it but I have one problem.

I backed up everything with TitaniumBackup.

Because CM doesn't support Samsung apps I can not restore any of my contacts or SMS. Is there any way to restore them?

best regards
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
As far as I know, you need to have backed your contacts up to either Google/Android Market, your SIM card, or use an Exchange connection. Also if your contacts are in gmail you can import them I believe.

Open Contacts, select Import and tell it to import from SIM card to see if they may have been saved there.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] quangmach:
About contact.go back to froyo restore them and Sync with google contact. Sms and mms use "backup to gmail" then flash cm7. Use it to restore sms from gmail. Cheers

One last comment on battery...With this build my battery gauge won't go higher than 94. When it hits 94, it reads as Charged rather than Charging.

Now I know that the Galaxy won't charge the battery to max capacity to prolong the life of the hardware, but it always used to at least SAY it was at 100 even if it was really at 96.

Now my phone won't even tell me sweet little lies, just stops at 94. Next it will tell me I am not husky but fat, and wearing 80s rock tee-shirts isn't retro it is just lame.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] madduckuk:
having the same issue with MIUI Bozdag 8B - left to its own devices it wont go above 94%, however if i unplug replug a few time i have got it to go as high as 96%, although who knows if that has any more charge than the 94% :confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] runedrune:
2.5 Battery only reports ~96% on full charge

This is a function implemented on ALL 2.2.1+ ROMS (including MIUI, which is based off CM7 2.3.3) so that the battery of the devices do not overcharge and therefore improve the lifetime of the battery. Samsung ROMS falsely report 100% charge, but in actual fact, it also charges to ~96% and that if you watch closely, after a few minutes, the battery will rapidly drop back down to ~96% and stablise.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] madduckuk:
good info :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] katsuru:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
But mine will just show 94 now, not 96....just stubborn, I guess.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] :
Stock samsung 2.2 firmware doesn't include bootloaders? I flashed it via odin...ticked repartition with 512 pit file..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kasper_h:
Not all odin packages contain bootloaders... easy solution is to use EZbase.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kar200:

Use ezbase as it has got everything needed plus it is a direct download.

please use that to avoid cluttering this thread which is meant for dev discussion (even though most of this thread is questions and answers about the same issues)

secondly: not all stock 2.2 releases have the bootloaders, for example JS8 doesn't but JPU does, make sure you have a froyo rom that HAS the bootloaders

I've updated from 9 to 12 today without any problems everything was working...

after 1hour, I had a crash, a random one I think, as I wanst using the phone, it was in standby...I say it crash because I was unable to turn the screen on to unlock the device, the screen was black and it didnt respond to any button so I had to remove the battery..

If this occurs again, is there anything I can do to help you find the cause?

Thanks ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] :
So (last OT)...do I have to re-flash 2.2 with bootloader (with factory reset ecc ecc) and then reflash CM build 12? or can I flash only froyo bootloader over current CM rom and then reflash CM?

chose EZbase 2.0 which is froyo, it includes bootloaders, is pre-rooted and has CWM

after flashing that just stick CM on your internal sd and flash via CWM
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] madphone:
With v12 i'm still having wifi (dhcp) problems. hope that will be fixed soon. So long I'll stay on v7. Performence is very good.

But one thing is pretty annoying: the video player doesn't play almost every video i have. The original galaxy s player played everything i threw on it, without lagging or sound issues.

Which player do you use? I tried Mobo but it doesn't play much more than cyanogen videoplayer.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] armanderli:
Rockplayer for the win:D:D:D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] xero2002:
vPlayer does a great job with everything I threw at it so far. From avi to mkv files, nothing seemed to lag.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
Moboplayer FTW

but all of this is rather OT & belongs into Q & A subforum :p

the new RIL & modemctl seems to be a rather fragile piece of code

less kernel optimizations

otherwise it hangs & reboots

weird :confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] shadoslayer:
For this particular problem, perhaps, but generally speaking I've yet to brick my phone buggering around with /efs. I even rebooted with no nv_data.bin and nv_data.md5 and the phone will create its own (albeit with a bad IEMI).

Good point. The last time I used CM7, you ran efs_backup.zip in cwm then you proceeded with flashing. When I switched back recently, and noticed that the backup of efs was handled with the new single file cwm zip, I kept getting a bad IEMI. While I still don't understand why (and nothing in the logcat gave me any indication), I've come to the conclusion that most of the information out there on a proper backup & restore of /efi is wrong.

For instance, everything I read said that simply restoring nv_data.bin and setting the proper permissions (700, modem:modem) will work, but it doesn't. In my experience, going about it this way will result in a IEMI of 004999010640000 and the nv.log showing something along the lines of "reverting to default". I screwed around with it a bit to try to figure out what it didn't like, but my ADD kicked in, and I moved on. I just untared my backup of /efs, rebooted, and it worked perfectly.

And finally, I guess the lesson here is that unless you know what you are doing, or like toying around with bleeding edge, don't bother flashing nightlies. Just because its new, doesn't make it better. And to elaborate on that, if you want something stable that works perfectly 100% of the time, don't use software labelled "experimental". :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Mortify1:
So I'm assuming there is no current fix for the problems with -12. I reverted back to -11 for the meantime... just going to wait for -13.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mpierce:
You did what I did when I first installed CM7. You've forgotten to reinstall the correct bootloaders.

You will need to:

01) Blow everything away and reflashed using odin and 512 pit (I used Froyo XXJPY)

02) Reboot and then install ChainFires kernel ...JPYv1.3BusyBox1.17.tar to get CWM

03) Apply update.zip 2x (CWM which never works on 1X)

04) Flash XDA EZboot-Froyo-1.0.tar.md5 to get the bootloaders (CF kernel does not have these and you don't either)!

05) Phone will show:

Firmware 2.2.1 / Baseband 19000XXJPY / Kernel 2.6.32.9 / Build FROYO.XWJS7

06) Now I follow these instructions for installing CM 7 1st X:

07) Make sure you're running a Eclair/Froyo Firmware (2.1 or 2.2) and Eclair/Froyo Bootloaders! (You are!)

08) Root your device and install ClockworkMod Recovery (You are!)

09) Do a Nandroid backup!

10) WIPE (wipe data/factory reset + wipe cache partition)

11) Install whatever nightly CM& ROM from internal sdcard using ClockworkMod Recovery

Install cm_galaxysmtd_full-12.zip & let phone boot

12) Go back into CMW and optionally install the Google Addon

13) Reboot phone - voila; /mnt/emmc will be there!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] xdaShex:
can anyone paste me the google addon link ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] nanu_x2:

Ok, so i did the mistake to want to start from 0 again to have a rom installation as clean as possbile.

What i did?:

Install JPK

Root

Install Rom manager

Install CWM 3.x

Reboot to recover with rom manager

ERROR: Cant open cache/update.zip

So i cant get out of 2e to CWM 3, but i tried to get from 2e to CMW 2.x and it works, the only problem is i cant install CM7 there...

2- two reboot during work

3- when I want to dial, during using of keypad, it didn't detect my phone book (for each number or word that I'm typing)

4- Min brightness is too dark and I don't know how can I change it to a higher brightness

5- Some times ( once happened ) the power bar! ( from notification menu that help us to turn on/off wifi, BT , ... ) disappeared.

2) No issues here

For 1 and 2-did you wipe cache and dalvik cache?

3) Not a bug, it's just not available. Try an alternate dialer (eg-dialer one)

4) Um, maybe under brightness settings?

5) After you installed a theme I'm guessing? Reboot will fix that

6) It's an issue with mkv files. I'm vaguely remembering due to a lack of hardware acceleration, but I could be wrong.

Hm. I think I'm seeing a problem here on -12 (no OC or anything), sometimes if I keep the phone sleeping for a long while it never wakes up. Holding the power button for a while eventually boots it up.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
It wakes up normally when you hold the button for awhile, or reboots?

If it wakes after holding the power button, then it is just in deep sleep which means it is idling properly. Nothing to be concerned about.

If it actually needs to be rebooted without waking up, then that is SOD (Sleep of Death) and is a problem, but could be for a billion different reasons. Wait for 13 and see if it gets sorted.

I'm really impressed, this CM7 it's awesome !!

I've started from this first nightly build and so go on...

I've sometimes, one big issue:

When the night, i switch to "airplane mode", and after i switch back, the phone doesn't regain the net (2g or 3g), but stay offline (in the top bar, the airplane it's always draft and in the system menu, it's seems that it's really switch, but doesn't :( )

Either with a reboot, it doesn't cancel the airplane state, so it not ask me the PIN code of my SIM and don't gain the net never :mad:

The only solution, it's to reflash the build wiping dalvik as usual.

This issue, it's occurred 2-3 times in 1 week, and it's really annoying; the build 12, it's the worse with this problem, as seem to me.

I Hope I'm explained well, sorry for my bad english :p

I haven't heard of it affecting airplane mode before, but the result sounds like the 2G/3G Toggle bug.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] codeworkx:
Funny to read all the comments about nightlies.

Every nightly contains a special surprise. You never know what you'll get.

During the day there are a lot of changes from a lot of different people with different phones. The changes are getting reviewed and merged into the repos.

Sometimes a change unitentional breaks something. But that doesn't stop buildbot to build a new update and release it. There's always the possibility that a nightly is damn ****ed.

The only builds that are secure to flash are RC's and stable releases because these are testet for some time. But i think the next stable releases of cm7 are still far away. So let's have fun with a daily moving target.

For those people who are having problems with radio/modem, please send us the output of using www.pastbin.com and tell us what you did:

logcat -b radio

logcat

cat /proc/kmsg
