A question to @codeworkx, @atinm or @coolya:

Given the actual state of CM7 for SGS and the fact that we finally have proper Nightlies going on, in a suposed scenario where Google releases Android 2.4 (Ice Cream Sandwich or whatever is next version), would CM for SGS be ready for it? Will it have proper Nightlies such as Nexus One had for CM7 just a weeks later the 2.3 source code was published?

Thank you very much!

random reboots happening here since #12, how to revert to #11 without wiping everything? just install it regulary?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] B_sHorTy:
allright! fixed my talk problem.

timezone was the endboss! defeated that sun of a *:D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Szighy:
the point of android 2.4 is to stop fragmentation of the android os between devices and providers...every device running 2.4 will be the same...so the answer is yes
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mpierce:
Posting for the devs:

SGS i9000

Using cm_galaxysmtd_full-12.zip

Bluetooth stack broken.

Taking a while to now pair with my car (previously instantaneous with full functionality) after I unpair and pair again it partially works but it no longer sends the phone book (595 contacts).

Auto Time

Mentioned by others - requires manual setting.

WiFi

Launches OK prone at some point to lose connectivity without warning. This has happened a couple of times since install.

Phone

Phone no speed dial (installed Dialer One to get speed dial functionality).

Everything else appears to be operating as expected.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mpierce:
This has been answered many times before - yes you can do this. Wipe the cache and Dalvik install by CWM.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mpierce:
you need to go read how to install the rom!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] runedrune:
It never had that.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] codeworkx:
dumb question. no one except google has sources atm. how should i tell you if it works?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
The wifi and the time zone issues are well known to the devs.

The lack of speed dial is according to current spec, not a bug.

The Bluetooth issue is new as far as I know. Are you running the stock kernel? Is anyone else seeing that behavior? Have you tried using Bluetooth to connect to other devices? My Bluetooth seems to be working fine.

And lastly remember these are nightlies, they are expected to have strange behavior and weird issues.

I have two different pairs of SAMSUNG headphones.

FIRST - is original set I received with the SGS and SECOND - is original SAMSUNG service adapter for any mini-jack headphones (so far on others roms it works perfectly).

My problem is that on V12 only the FIRST headphones works for music control and answering calls, but the SECOND doesnt...

Am I the only one with this kind of bug???
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Adevem:
http://cm-nightlies.appspot.com/?device=galaxysmtd - this seems the easiest to keep track as of now.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
So why didn't you also mention that it doesn't shoot megaphotonic laser beams, that it makes a poor surfboard and that you can't seem to grow parsley in the SD card slot?

Just to remind us all, codeworkx keeps a pit bull named Honeysuckle half starved, chained to his PC...ready to feed it people who make feature requests before they are asked for.

Honeysuckle waits....
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
OK....that issue is weird. I have no idea why one would work and the other not if they worked before.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] FadeFx:
Bluetooth handsfree is working for me as intended. As for the speeddial you may want to go to contacts setings and show the call button for contacts favorites and history

is your second one a 3 pole?

plug it in and give me logcat. if it has buttons, press them.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mpierce:
I was just pointing out speed dial for devs - needed when traveling on the road to make a quick call - not an issue.

Bluetooth is problem and yes I'm running stock kernel otherwise, I would not have reported my observation (per their request on don't report is you use another kernel). It is occurring on my 2010 BMW 330i which locks on this phone very quickly.

Just re-flashed the nightly 10 to look at this again. Paired it and voila - instantaneous. Connected and all contacts in the phone book showing up as expected.

Reporting what I saw to help out any devs monitoring the forum which I see that they do.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
That works fine if you do it from Recovery where you can wipe each one individually. However in ROM Manager you can opt to backup your current ROM (fine but not needed every time, imho), Wipe Cache + Data and Wipe Dalvik. Since you can only wipe BOTH Cache and Data together, leave it alone as wiping Data will factory reset your device.

Just wipe the Dalvik if you are using RM, which 9 times out of 10 will be more than enough.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mpierce:
Wipe both cache is on the 1st page of CWM and dalvik is on the advanced page
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
Since all we have on Ice Cream Sandwich so far is a name, a logo and a marketing spiel, if the devs could predict how it will affect CM or the SGS then they should tell Harold Campling what was up with that whole Rapture thing. I was hoping to score some cheap, abandoned tech so I am pretty steamed about the cancellation.

Beyond that, considering that Honeycomb has barely a fraction of the development community that Froyo/Gingerbread does, I would imagine that I will see Ice Cream Sandwich on my Xoom long before I would on my SGS as Honeycomb will be EOLed pretty rapidly.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] saszseb:
Ok. I'll install this "cm_galaxysmtd_full-12.zip" via CWM/RM. After reboot, how can I check whether I managed to install this update? (Datum in Mod version in the "About phone")?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
Mod version will list the file name of the Nightly (which includes the date), not the Nightly number. So in this case it will show CyanogenMod-7-05232011-NIGHTLY-GalaxyS.

However, considering all the troubles with 12, you may want to just wait a few hours and take a crack at 13.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] atinm:
Yeah - and we broke vibrant and captivate when we did it :-P
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] atinm:
It's a nightly - don't need a bug report, we're working in RIL. It does things. Bad things sometimes.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] atinm:
Except that restore will send a crap all command. You need to revert back - we broke RIL or something related, hopefully temporarily.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] atinm:

Seems that Nightly_12 may have some other problems.

While using DoggCatcher to read some podcasts, Watchdog went down with an I/O error. Miren my favourite web browser quickly followed suit, then DoggCatcher.

I'll skip posting a log file as a reboot and all OK for the moment... fingers crossed.

Waiting on lucky #13!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Necrolust:
I've experienced no problems whatsoever with 12 so far. Its actually pretty damn good.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] armanderli:
same here and always surprise with all the issues people have been reportin' but you never know....some devices are just faulty I guess
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Elle233:
For how long have you ran it?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Necrolust:
Since it was released

EDIT: Oh right I've had one problem with the wifi going in and out but that seems to only happen if I have ****ty signal
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Elle233:
Was that not the issue most users reported?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] runedrune:
Mines running perfectly on Nightly 12. No issues with Wi-Fi either. Been running it for 26 hours now.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mpierce:
Have had that as well as, Bluetooth issues.

Perhaps, some of the issues are caused by my phone's hardware, perhaps some are caused by the 3rd party apps I'm using.

Who knows... I've got enough on my plate working on a new app to try and track every thing down so, I post what I observe so that the devs know what's happening on a wide variety of installs of which mine is just a small fish in a big pond.

I got similar statistic last night, making me lost 70% of battery in a 6-hr-sleep..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
Look at the OP and the FAQs and around 400 previous posts in this thread. Power consumption while idle is a know issue that the devs are working on, but it isn't easy due to the fact that Samsung are a company of running dog zombie tomb-looters.

It is being worked on, and will continue changing radically from Nightly to Nightly for awhile.

Stay tuned, keep low, stop asking.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] drakenabarion:
Nobody is thinking too highly of themselves. What you are asking for is documented well if you'd care to look. Just have a look around the thread. You know ;-) From the beginning onwards. Like almost everyone else who installed it. ;-)

Location of backups?

- Can I safely move my ROM Manager backups to my external SD card - can I reinstall rom the external card from CWM? Anyone know..?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
I would tend to doubt it, and I don't know how you would do it.

Beyond that, I wouldn't think it would be a good idea. Just delete old backups every week or so to save space and if you want to, copy them and store duplicates in safe places, just in case.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] saszseb:
I failed to install this update via RM Premium. I managed to install it via CWM.

I don't need to install Google Apps, do I?

This update process is like a "no-wipe" in Darky's ROM.

Correct?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
If you installed from Recovery, then I think your Google apps should not need replacing. If you boot up and they are gone, just go to ROM Manager and flash them, no worries.

And yes, it is basically like a Darky's No Wipe, but without all the bricking and screaming and begging for help in the wrong forum.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] drakenabarion:
Typically its no wipe but sometimes Google apps aren't stable after an update and reinstalling will fix that. Also wiping cache and dalvik sometimes help. I do all this everytime i update in one go.

this will be availble with nightly #13 for us

awesome feature !

go Team Douche !

The ringtone and the alarm and the notification volume is lower than samsung stock rom.the notification and alarm is not important(at least for me) but I can not hear ringtone when the phone is in my pocket.

I have changed the ringtone volume to 10 db in CM setting but it is still lower than stock rom.

any solution?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DarKprince87:
most applications won't run if you revoke permissions.

For example:

I tried to disable some ''Internet Access'' permissions in file explorer apps, and they force close ad startup since the main layout requires that permission to load ADS...

Sincerely I dunno if that feature is ''really'' usefull. If an app requires a permission there might be a reason, or not? if you don't trust in that application because of some permissions DO NOT install it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] KingMetal:
I,m on nightly 12.

No problems only the automatic time thing.

Tried latest glitch kernel with voodoo sound and i find the music quality(bass) crappy.

With custom kernel it is perfect.

Think voodoo sound has a bad influence on sound quality.

I prefer. Dsp manager.

Battery Query

I just want to get a better understanding behind the logic of clearing Cache and Dalvik Cache and their relationship to battery consumption?

I flashed to the latest v12 last night and woke up to 12% this morning, i charged fully this morning at half 9 this morning and by 10:30 my battery was in the high 70's - I booted into CWM and cleared both caches and the battery has stabled out to more reasonable rate. So what exactly does the cache do?? I wonder.

I dont want to errupt any massive battery rantings, just want to better understand :confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
As far as I know clearing caches has NOTHING to do with battery life. This sounds like just a coincidence to me.

Can someone please help me,

basically i had some problems with a flash to i decided to reflash cm7. I formatted system data and cache. I then installed an initial build and updated to -9 build. I now have no signal at all, i have tried reflashing again, restoring nandroid backups...I really don't know what to do.

I would flash to a samsung rom but i can't get my pc to recognise the phone as a nexus s. it only recognises it as a storage device even though i have google usb driver revision 4 installed. Please can someone help me.

2. via "autostarts" you can preset, which apps. mustn't run by reboot. (e.g. Maps).

3. Modem.Some modems give good battery life, some good signal, some neither. It's the drivers package that is responsible for GPRS, 3G/E/H, WIFI, GPS and Bluetooth.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kobik77:
The world isn't colored only in black and white, there are some greys too.

There are apps which you can't trust completely or just decides to turn on features of your phone which you don't like these apps to use.

One example, I use a sports news app called One which turns on GPS which of course cause a battery drain. Even when I leave the app GPS is still running.

Anyway, this feature works nice on some apps and cause FCs on some others.

You need to experiment with it to know what's good and which permissions you can revoke for every app.
