Interesting....that code is news to me but it works.

Now, question for someone who understands telephony better than.I do...do the network selections under phone info using this code have anything to do with band? For example, I have GSM/CDMA Auto chosen by default..does that indicate anything about 850 being enabled?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stanik_sk:
That did the trick for a second. I switched it to GSM only and I saw the Icon in status bar changed to "E" .. Signal strength went to -85dBm which is acceptable... but after few seconds it changed back to GSM/CDMA auto (PRL) itself.. and -99dBm .. strange !

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stanik_sk:
I remember, there was a code, from the time I was running Darky's ROM on my SGS. There was a version which has a problem with HSDPA/CMDA/EDGE battery consumption.. So this code was highly discussed..

Anyway, it's not doing what it should be.. however, there was another one.. menu looks different.. omg, can't find it anywhere... something with "73"

I think usually it will switch back , I tried that in the past.

just flashed the new #23 nightly. Found an error (or its just me): in CWM v4.0.0.0 when im trying flash a zip file, i get E:Can't mount /sdcard. .....anyone else?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] FadeFx:
that would mean you have to reflash from froyo since u can not update anymore...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
Reflash recovery back to cwm3 and try again. Cwm4 can only use the internal SD for now.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sebeke:
I have the same problem, how can i flash back to cwm3 back?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] aegeuss:
I have the same problem unfortunately; but there's a small point; I have flashed the new #nightly 23, reboot, updated CWM from the market then reboot again the flash the new JVP modem and I had the same error. Then I tried something different, I have launched cwm and installed the new modem, which is a zip file, just like installing a new rom inside cwm, it booted up, installed the new modem and works ok now. I don't know though if I will have the same error again.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] FadeFx:
so you mean you can flash through rom manager, but not if u use 3bc to get to recovery?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kasper_h:
For those trying to switch between 2g&3g, do you switch with data connection off? I had some problem (few weeks ago, so don't know whether this is still valid) when switching bands with data connection being alive. Also, when connected to wifi, I couldn't change bands. So only way to change between 2g&3g was with both wifi and data connection off.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
Try going into ROM manager, and reflash the ClockworkMod Recovery. Select Galaxy S Mtd and cwm3.

Not sure if it will work or not, but worth a shot.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] miketwn:
ya..will give that a go. At least now I know im not the only one getting this error...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stanik_sk:
This was helpful, thanks! Turned off data connection and wifi, switched 3G to 2G and re-enabled data connection and wifi.. I'm on 2G now with -79dBm and going to make a phone call to test that hearing problem I mentioned above ..

PS: There is a new build of XXJVP released yesterday, anyone tried it? Eastern Europe
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] chablo12:
Simply choosing a modem of your choice is not completely right. Most modems are optimised for different countries and networks.

In UK O2 network works with JV5, JV6, JVK etc... but I found JVO modem is default here and giving best sound quality, fair coverage and reasonable battery.

First thing you need to switch to the default modem for your country, if there is one already. Make sure you clear Dalvik cache before flashing. reboot 2 times after flashing. http://codeworkx.de/download/cyanogenmod/

Samfirmwire gives you list for countries.

The reason is your network using a particular frequency/frequencies, esp this change is prominent if you move from excellent coverage to a poor coverage area.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_frequencies#Frequency_bands_used_in_the_United_States

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GSM_frequency_bands

This is a very long and confusing topic.

For GPS I suggest to install fasterfix from Market and choose your area.

Flashed #23 from rom manager.

Rebooted and i got lot of FC. Rebooted and phone stalled.

I then removed battery and activated CWM with 3bcombo to reflash last nightly but I Got the cannot mount thinghy so it was not possible to do another flash.

I then wiped cache, dalvik cache and fixed permissions. Rebooted. Phone started and no FC at all. Rom manager does not know there's anew CWM because when i tell him i have CWM installed it asks me if it is v3 or v2 only.

Flashed nightly 23 and im having signal problems its there for a min and den goes..maybe the modem is something i need to chnge..i live in india which modem should i use that will give me best signal quality..please help..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Dr. Strange:
Just did a fresh install.

- Flashed Froyo ( with bootloaders) through odin

- Flashed speedmod kernel

- did a wipe (factory reset/cache/davlik)

- flashed #23 via CWM

- the phone rebooted and now CWM 4 can't mount SD, reboots, waits 20 seconds for SD to be mounted reboots... so on

:/
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] miketwn:
looks like a majority of people have got this error on #23, even when you do a fresh install (see above). Basically we are stuck, unless someone knows how to get out of it...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
I would expect that this is connected to the recent ROM manager updates. Therefore a fix will likely come soon from koush.

Your recovery is automatically reflashing to cwm4?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Dr. Strange:
having a wiped phone I just flashed froyo again and am installing #22 right now. gonna sit #23 out till the devs can look into it.

I live in India. I am using the #23. I am using ZWJV4 modem and it is working brilliant.

If you check on Samfirmware, it clearly indicates that ZWJV4 is intended for Asia.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Dr. Strange:
Yes, that is the case after doing a fresh install of #23.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Dr. Strange:
I did. I was just sharing my exp with a fresh install.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] katsooba:
well, just flashed #23 over #21.

CWM 4.0.0.0 installed, first my external sd didnt mout

so i just pulled it out and plugged it in while the phone was on without unmounting it.

did mount it back under storage and now it works great

havent tested the zip flashing from the recovery yet

have no signal issues using the KC1 modem.

looks good till now
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] chablo12:
You installed speedmod Kernel, I never done that.

Try installing Ezbase ROM http://www.theandroidsoul.com/ezbase-ezrom-for-android-2-2-install-revert-back/ You get CWM 2

From the recovery flash straight to latest CM7 nightly and gapps.

I dont know much about this CWM4. But i got CWM 3.2 during my previous installs.

Now I found my recovery is CWM 4!!! No mention about this i changelog.

Me too flashes #23 over #22. Is this new CWM4 added in #23?

That is all from changelog:

added the efs partition to the do not format list since this holds the imei info. (android_bootable_recovery)cpuidle: menu: fixed wrapping timers at 4.294 seconds (android_device_samsung_galaxysmtd)V8: Stop generating v8.log in build root directory (android_external_v8)V8: Preemptive Garbage Collection API (android_external_v8)WEBKIT: Pre-emptive and Idle-time Garbage Collection (android_external_webkit)Fix for flash based video crash in browser (android_external_webkit)

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Bork84:
flashed #23 over #21... skipped #22..

did it manually in recovery... i dont use rom manager

CMW 4.0 after flashing but all is good.. everything looks fine so far...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] chablo12:
When you do that, do you need to flash gapps as well?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bravoleader:
Phone looks good so far but i cannot install anything from recovery anymore -.-

Can i use "install new rom" from rommanager to flash kernels and scripts?

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gbohm:

(like the 3->2recovery downgrade)

you will have to use odin
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Vorbeth:
Actually you should be able to just push a older "recovery" executable to / (if it's not in / look in /sbin/)

It would seem the /data/media support caused the bug

+ if (volume_for_path("/sdcard") == NULL) {
+ rmdir("/sdcard");
+ symlink("/data/media", "/sdcard");
+ }

That plus changes in roots.c

I thought you should stay away from Odin for flashing kernel/modem on CM7....only use Odin to return to Samsung FW.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] derrzredeem:
Nope, just the modem.

odin doesn't know phone have a different radio partition.

~drz
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Vorbeth:
it's a single file named

recovery

no extension, all lower case.

Damn you Samsung from parting from the norm, a separate recovery partition...

Me too on #23 without any problem.

But when the next nightly comes, there maybe a problem.

With CWM4 recovery I mounted USB mass storage succesfully and internel SD is visible in PC. But mount/sdcard giving error.

will update the post after next nightly.

Cheers
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] katsooba:
well, im on #23, and i just did that

rebooted to recovery, plugged the phone

did his commands and now i can read my SDCARD from recovery

after that

i unplugged the phone

booted to recovery again

and it DOESNT work

i guess its not a permanent fix :)

it need to be plugged to the computer everytime you want to install a new zip after a reboot

thats it
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] wsnipex:
I went back to #21 cause I don't want to use adb everytime I wanna flash something. It probably not a permanent solution, although I admit I didn't test it.

anyone tried if one-time recreating /sdcard permanently fixes the problem?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] katsooba:
its not permanent.

need to do the adb method every reboot
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kenkiller:
Heheh....maybe it's a hint that #23 will be the end of CM7. :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
It sounds like it is best to stick with 21 for now, and if you flashed to 23 use the adb solution to flash back to 21.

We'll all just huddle here together and wait.

After being on MIUI and Darkys Rom for a few weeks I test out Cyanogen Mod 2 Days ago an I must admit it's just damn fast :D

Thanks to you Atimn and Codeworkxx and the other supporters and developers for this amazing rom.

But I have a Question regarding Cyanogen Mod in general. I understand the nightlys are experimental builds and there is a new one around every day.

Some phones already have around 90 or more builds if the numbers on the nightlys changelog page are correct. Does this mean these phones had had 90 updates until they were considered final ? :confused:

And is there a schedule of some kind of how many nightlies there will be until the RC's or does it vary from phone to phone ?

In order to make up for the lack of ponies several builds ago, the next build was supposed to come with a bear, which would be airdropped to you based on you GPS position...

Of course considering the accuracy of the GPS on the galaxy s, I hope no one lives a few miles from any industrial incinerators or giant pits filled with spikes.

Anyway, it doesn't matter now since due to the ROM manager update when we run the "make bear drop bear" command all we get is "Error: unable to mount /bear....attempt to mount /badger? Y/N".

Bummer....
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Herman76:
Questions should go in the Q&A section, but since you already posted here.

Nightlies are generated by a buildbot, which runs around every day. It will compile the changes the devs have done to the ROM. There arn't a specific number of nightlies b4 a rc is made. A RC will be made when the devs have fixed all the known bugs on the ROM. Don't ask for ETA since there aint one.

The nightlies will continue to be generated even after the stable release is offical.
