Just installed CM for the fist time on my i9000. The installation was easier than expected and went without any problems when following the guide at the wiki and downgraded to 2.2 first as described here.

Some people mentioned bad wifi, so I did a test with the Speed Test app before i installed CM7 (had darky 10.1) and the results are basically the same: http://www.speedtest.net/android/58752332.png http://www.speedtest.net/android/58783209.png maybe a bit faster in CM. Of cause this will only test up to speed of my internet connection and not my real wifi speed.

Anyway, just wanted to say thanks to the developers!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
You should check your apns. I had a small error in my mms apn which blocked my abiliry to send them for a time.

If you are not sure what your apns should be, Google for the apns of your carrier.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] CrashyNL:
Wow, I've been following this thread for over some weeks now, and offcourse using the latest nightlies (upgrading to #19 as we speak). And i want to thank the Devs in advance for all the great work on CM7 for SGS! And offcourse all the people who are helping on this forum!

I just have a question about the battery drain some people are noticing, because i have it too, but on my device it says that google maps is accountable for 24% of all battery use.

After a reboot, the phone acts normally, and it goes in to deepsleep, after a while (different every time) it will not go there anmymore, as i can see on the power menu, the device is enabled (on), even if the phone is in standby (screen off).

I was wondering if this, by any chance, has something to do with the 'pulled' gapps package I installed earlier to have videochat on Gtalk (20110307 version). Because it's great and all, but if this is the reason of the batterydrain, it's not worth it...

Also another question about rom manager, probably not the right place to ask... but here goes. Rom manager works fine (downloading, reminding me about updates). But when I update through rom manager, it goes in recovery, and it says very short (1 sec or less) something about the SD-card (waiting to mount), SD card mounted. And then reboots, without doing any updating of the downloaded rom. When I go into recovery manually, and update with the package downloaded from rom manager, it works fine....

Ow, and maybe some tips for which app using for the videorecording in 720p, because it's a real shame that isn't working yet...

thx for the help in advance!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Headstrike85:
Im back with stock rom jvh, and now my wifi work fine, without to be disconnected maybe a bug with wifi driver with some routers ?? I don't know but it's really annoying.So congrats again the cmsgs team for his hard work and i hope to be back here soon with this fantastic rom. Good night all.

Edit: I had a problem with mail notification on cm7 too, not working maybe others have this ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Sefko:
It's strange, I have APN settings correct,my phone after flashing pulled my operator.Conections APN for Internet data services over the function, as well as sending / receiving MMS messages. Only problem I have send SMS message.I have last build 19, I had previously MIUI ROM. I went as follows: format system / data / cache / datadata and then I installed the CM ROM.One thing I can think of why I do not know when MIUI I noticed that in the settings SMS centrum was 00 and about to be passed and here :-(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Herman76:
Que? Didn't understand that. Maybe google translate isn't your best friend :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] starschild:
quick question: as ezbase already has 2e instead of 3e, is it possible to skip the ClockworkMod Recovery installation step? (i.e. install ezrom, then directly cm7)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Herman76:
google maps drain usually comes from Latitude updating your position all the time.

If you don't have it enabled, try enable it and disable it again. Worked for me some builds back :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zpon:
I'm not really sure, the guide at the wiki just said that they expected 2.2, so I thought i better downgrade before continuing with the rest of the guide. The 2.2 downgrade guide was found in codeworkx's radio install flowchart (http://codeworkx.de/download/cyanogenmod/instructions.jpg).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Sefko:
Once again :-) I have in the phone latest nightly build 19.APN settings just downloaded without problems, although it is not able to send SMS messages. MIUI is my previous ROM, which I had for reasons unknown at the center of SMS setting the value "00" what is a problem that seems to extend to the CM7 ROM. So I ask a simple thing, is it possible somewhere in the phone manually change the SMS center, or not?

EDIT: Problem solved. SIM card I have translated into another phone and SMS centrum settings was number "00" and rewrite the SMS center of my operator is again possible to send SMS messages. The CM7 is not able to manually change the SMS center setup.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] starschild:
not unless you rub the glass of your SGS against some silk clothes, duh..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] h4m74ro:
Come on buildbot, all the other nightlies are already out. Why so slow for galaxy s?^^;

Want to see the new timepicker. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zpon:
I can confirm this, just had the same problem.

Why do i find bastard nightly better than the latest whatsoever...

but too lazy to go back.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stephencwl:
Running version 19, first nightly that ate up 50% battery overnight in airplane mode. Android System is consuming 40% while display is only 25%. Not a complain nor issue to me.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cashyftw:
Thats weird, my system is 10% and my display is 42% Battery is pretty good, going on for 16 hours, and still have 36%!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stephencwl:
Yes. That's really weired. I have to look into my Apps combination though.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Hrc4u:
Hi all! :-)

What battery drain do you have in stand by?

I have 1%/h on all nightlys..

(Had 1%/8h on froy/speedmod with same apps etc..)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] action_papst:
1%/h seems ok to me as cm7 is far better than any froyo/speedmod-combo ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ashwinds:
I had high Android System use too - it was showing over 40% in Battery Use to start with and running pretty much all the time. But it stabilized overnight - over 10 hrs it shows 1 hour in use - which i presume is mostly in the first 2 hours.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MuayThaiFighter8:
CM7 and batterydrain is been a discussion for almost a year now so everyone forgets what CyanogenMod actually aims for..

Doesn't Android System Usage % drops down automatically after a couple charging cycles?? That's what I experienced all the time after flashing custom ROMs..

Maybe you guys should be patient a few days and see how your device reacts on the latest build..

I better stop talking now with my small Galaxy Ace with a batterylife over 40 hours :cool:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] FadeFx:
Not if android system keeps the device active.

I could really use some answers as I really depend on my device for communication and navigation ;) and I am afraid that maybe the bastard nightly modem is still there and that may result in malfunction when I am away from home.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sambwel:
The JV6 modem for "bastard nightly" #16 works fine with the new official nightlies. If you are unsure, try JV9 modem (link in my sig) - I am using it with nightly #19 and it works great. :)

TIPS FOR THOSE EXPERIENCING UNUSUAL BATTERY DRAIN

Remember that this is normal as battery recalibrates after flashing a new ROM!

Turn off ALL automatic functions in app killers/schedulers

Try wiping cache & dalvik cache

If the probloem persists for days, fully drain battery, fully recharge, then wipe battery stats (advanced menu in recovery). After another full depletion & recharge your battery will definitely be recalibrated

If you have been patient & tried these steps, and you STILL have problems, feel free to post. Otherwise... please stop filling this thread with these issues :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] FadeFx:
Still this is no solution if android system keeps the phone active, what causes battery drain for me. It is no real problem for me as i have chargers wherever i need them, but it still is an issue to address when possible. (Ok, i still did not find time for a fresh, clean install to test if it goes away...)

----------------------------------------

tapatalked
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sambwel:
FWIW I had Android System claiming a large percentage of battery use until I wiped cache & dalvik cache, which is why I included that step. If you tried that and the problem wasn't fixed I guess it must be something else :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] strickyy:
Has anyone tried flashing juwe's ram script?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
I am glad it worked out for you....but I still dont have a clue what you mean by SMS center/centrum or what this number is you changed.

Anybody?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
I think some people did, but Codeworkx feels that such a script is not needed, may interfere wirh normal cm7 operation and could cause users to walk strangely and wear outfits their mother chose at the Goodwill while on crack.

I agree with him.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Herman76:
I'm guessing he is talking about the setting for where the phone sends (see it as the sms server) the sms.

I havent had to find that number for ages myself tho, all my phones have figured out that themselves(due to send via gprs maybe?),

and i dont know if android even have a setting for that. Not that I have found anyway.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zpon:
Smsc/sms center is described here http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Short_message_service_center. It can be set in the menu that appears when entering *#*#4636#*#* in the dialer. Don't try this, as it will mess up your settings smsc in cm7 and you would need another phone to change it back. Normally you don't need to change it either, but apparently it can be messed up by some roms.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] J_Force:
Thanks for your reply but now I still don't know if I did or did not flash the modem. Using cwm was correct? And the code for bastard nightly modem and Codeworkx midem are the same? Tubjv6 I mean.

APNs and SMSC settings have nothing to do with each other.

APN (Access Point Name) = for data traffic

SMSC(Short Message Service Center) = for sms :P

Hi everyone.

I had this strange thing(I'll post later pic cause i am at work)

battery was at 21% and suddenly started to climb:D.Reached 25% and stopped.:(

And another one i was at 15% and i plug the charger, in 6 minutes the phone was at 53%. How is that possible?

PS:Running N18 with tk's kernel

Have a good day:)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
Interesting....I had assumed that SMS messages would use the same apn as mms messages. I suppose I don't send enough text messages for it to matter.

Live and learn.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rajuki:
Either you or your phone had too much vodka or you didn't calibrate your battery after flashing a nightly. Anyway, it takes sometime to stabilize on battery levels, but increase in battery- did you really wear silk clothes?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mbutandola:
So it appears that we'll be getting updates at a lower rate as the dev are all busy and excited with their brand new Galaxy S II. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Herman76:
Think only Atinm got a new phone tho...maybe he faxed it or even SMS'd it over to the other devs? :P

#21's out.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dago:
I like OTA #21 :) -> http://twitpic.com/58l774
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ktuluz:
I found #19 to be a little unstable for me.. so time for #21 i think.

On another note.. I think the Whole Sammy giving the Devs sgs2's is a bit of a con job.. not that the devs dont deserve some sgs2 love but think about it for a while..

1. how much press as the deal got online? even slashdot'ed.

2. devs get hooked on sgs2 and tell us "sgs is soo old school.. upgrade.."

honestly how many of you are now looking at getting a sgs2 ..

3. Sammy now looks good to developers..

now these are good reasons.. and i think sammy are great for getting on bored but i would refrain from giving them too much hype .. cuzz hype is the main reason they did this i believe

Devs You have done some great Work.. but it doesn't make sense to me that Supercurio had to go out and buy a sgs2, if anyone deserved a free sgs2 .. it would have to him that man.

just my thoughts .. carry on
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] alphasierra040:
Guys sorry to bother with this question but I would really appreciate if somebody gives me an alternate link to download th latest nightly. I always get "bad download" when I use the link in the OP. Thanks :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rajuki:
Try downloading from ROM Manager perhaps?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Herman76:
Have you tried dl'ing from Rom manager? (I'm guessing its the same link, but it worked for me).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
Lots of devs with big reputations amongst the hoopleheads in XDA, they are always very good at blowing their own horns (or letting fanbois do it for them)...but CyanogenMod is CyanogenMod. Nice to see the state of the art getting some love.

As for Samsung providing the phone to get some positive buzz from the tech press and cm7 devs....why not? Isn't that what good marketing is all about? Why else pass out free tablets at I/O? Personally I applaud Samsung for going for marketing stunts to appeal to knowlegeable consumers rather then dumbing down for the mainstream as Apple does.

Lastly I don't see SGSTEAM dropping the Galaxy S I anytime soon. Look at the CM site. The devs are still supporting phones that are ages older than the i9000 and far less capable. The SGS hardware is solid, so dont expect it to be dustbinned anytime soon.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ktuluz:
Agreed Great Marketing .. I have no problems with Anything .. just a observation. and didn't see it mentioned.. seen lots of "great to see sammy getting on bored" "good work sammy" blah blah.. i like to point things out for what they are. and in this case "my" thoughts was it was pure marketing. haha

I also agree that sgs wont be dropped anytime soon. i am sorry if i implied this in my post.

Also while were are talking rschenck , Thanks for bringing some Laughs to this forum .. have made my time wading through the thread a enjoyable one.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] chrome6boy:
Yeah Supercurio really deserved one, especially since he was tweeting about collaborating with the Samsung devs regarding their sound optimization. He really revolutionized the way our devices play music.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] chrome6boy:
sorry double post
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ethanfel:
Well if samsung want CM7 on their sgs2, what's the point in giving a sgs2 to supercurio ?

I don't say he doesn't deserve it but samsung did that for accelerating the incomming of cm7 on the sgs 2 so :p
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sambwel:
Pure marketing would have just been a press release saying that Samsung think CyanogenMod is really cool ;)

Sure it doesn't cost much to send out a few free phones, but it does count as material support to the dev team, and if it helps their reputation, fair enough!

I have seen quite a few comments around the place saying that next they should provide the source for all their proprietary drivers too, though - so it hasn't been a purely fawning reaction from the scene..

I think this update is mostly to sync with new CM7 updates. For example they changed time picker which u can see in clock when chaning hour for the alarm. The hour is highlighted now when in previous version weren't and you had to click 2 times on backspace to write new :) this is nice

I think i seen a news article about books coming to UK..

Also i have books installed.. seen there was an update but got error about not being found (had change market with market enabler) today .. it updated automatically

Maybe books is not just for USA anymore?

As for #21.. feels as good as ever.. CMSGS is where its at :P

I had few stability issues in #19 so will see how #21 goes . Been having issues with Browser really locking up sgs and making it feel bogged down. could be another issue else where with my system tho.. it could be time for an sdcard format Clean install :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mermigas:
Updated to #21 with no problem.

One , important for me , question to Devs

Since I am running Mobile Navigator Europe 3.6.0 all data are stored in the folder external_sd (about 2GB) i.e internal storage . This application by default stores all maps and data in the external sd card which is prefferable.

Also I've noticed in MIUI rom that the folder external_sd points to the the external SD card

Any chance to have the same structure in our CM7 rom ?

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rajuki:
I am not a dev but many people have asked this before and devs have replied: Its not possible because you can not have symlinks for external_sd, so you have to live with emmc implementation unless you know how to do this impossible implementation :)

I'm on #21 and the headset button still doesn't respond. Maybe time to do a fresh, wipe-everything, from the ground up install.

Can some others confirm headset controls behave as expected in #21? Because then it would clearly be my problem, not CM7.

hi all just updated to #21. Have to say the phone just keeps getting faster and faster. For all those who think its quick with ADW run launcherpro and see how much quicker it feels. Congrats devs!

As for the battery situation i kept posting about (for those who did not see "android system" was draining my bat in 4hours) i followed what one helpful poster said and cleared the cache and wiped the dalvik cache and then fixed permissions. I did this after the first time i re flashed to cm7. I flashed cm7 and gapps, waited for first boot, restored all apps and restored settings with google, waited for all syncs to complete, then shutdown, 3bc into cwm and wiped cache, cleared dalvik cache and fixed permissions and voila, no more "android system" sleep issue at all, phone now sleeps and not had any trouble since updating to #19 and now #21.

Moral of the story, clear cache and dalvik cache if battery seems to be draining uber quick!
