I have the same issue with slow loading camera. The app loads quick, but then there's a nice delay before you can do anything. Also, the camera app lists Flash On/Off, but being a i9000T, I don't have a flash, I have front and rear facing cameras. (That's the other issue with the camera, it's EXTREMELY dark, to the point you don't think it's working. After you take a picture, you can barely make it out in the gallery).

I've also noticed if I turn the phone off and plug it in to charge, after removing the charger the spinning circle thing stays on screen, and there's no way to get it to go away other than pulling the battery. Holding power doesn't do anything.

Last but not least that I've found so far, it takes a while for it to register and use the available network (only AT&T available where I'm at right now), and even when it does register, data etc work fine but texting is a no go. I've tried the using adb shell trick and the dial code option, but neither fixed it. I've also tried switching modems and no go as well.

I'm running the CM 7 Nightly 05042011. My actual SGS build is the GT-i9000T (Carried by Immix Wireless in the US) and uses Immix's home towers, AT&T, T-Mobile, and other smaller GSM providers. Which would be the best modem for me and where can I grab the .zip? (They don't currently offer 3g, but it will be coming very shortly and I believe use the same frequencies as AT&T)

I'm not too worried about the camera, if there's a fix, great, otherwise no big deal. But the texting is more of the deal breaker right now as a lot of my friends don't have smartphones or just use texting out of habit.

Thanks!

If you need AT&T 3G which is on both 850 and 1900 bands then you need either JL2 modem or KC1 modem. Not really sure which is better, both are from Bell, KC1 a bit newer. If you read back a bit some links were posted to download.

Major props to atinm & codeworkx for not only doing a fantastic job on CM7 but a fanstasic job communicating and sharing details about the process to make us all better informed about the workings of Android development.

My primary concern with CM7 on SGS is RAM management. I have noticed that on boot up I have a little over 100MB free which already seems low. Upon using the phone for a while (browser, Tweetdeck, Gmail, Facebook) available RAM quickly dips down to low 30MB range, and the phone becomes very sluggish, despite the fact that it is super fast and smooth when it has enough RAM available.

I've resorted to using Auto Killer (something I've sworn against for years) and setting it to kill all apps when I turn of the screen, that way when I wake back up at least the phone is fast & responsive right away.

I think one of the factors in this is that the kernel on CM7 only has 317MB RAM. I'm quite sure that it used to have 342MB, and I know Samsung stock Froyo has 342MB and can have up to 355MB. I find that these differences in RAM really impact the user experience (or maybe Samsung-based kernels manage RAM better? I don't really know).

Perhaps I'm obsessing on RAM a bit too much but I would appreciate learning more about the ins and outs of this.

Hey man, just so you know, I made the transition to cm7 from Darky9.5 and its all good. Just follow the instructions to the dot and you'll be absolutely fine (the chart is extremely useful). If you still have questions, use the q&a thread dedicated to this rom, so this thread stays clean and a bunch of the frequent readers don't get peeved at seeing repeat questions. You're also more than welcome to PM me if you still have unanswered questions, but the instructions really are very clear and the installation is simple.

And just my opinion (and many others as well), but once you come on board you will not want to go back to samsung roms. Ever.

Good luck!

I too came from darky 9.5. This is much faster.

But battery life much worst.

But I'd go with CM7 overall usage.

Very easy to flash

I downloaded the initial kernel and rom and flashed via CMW speedmod kernel.

Now not required to do the initials just download the latest nightly and flash via CMW/speedmod kernel, its like flashing a new version of darky.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] spectre85:
I was running Darky's Rom for a while, mostly Rom kitchen but came to CM7 from a Darky Rom, CM7 has speed that neither can top. I wont be going back ever!!!!

Just wish the battery life was a bit better but I'm sure they're working on that since this Rom is constantly evolving. :)

Flash it and you wont be sorry.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
O RLY ? :eek:

I'm RIGHT NOW on Darky's

and what should I say:

- idle runtime might be better (OF COURSE - it's a known issue - suspend doesn't work properly yet but should be sorted out in the future) :)

- busy / load runtime is the same or even worse (3% (samsung battery stats) vs. 3% (accurate fixed stats) during mp3 playback per hour - so it's even less for us with matching values, Video Playback similar or slightly higher cpu load with Mobo Player)

- overall more speed, control, stability, etc.

so clearly CM7 is better

and that's from first hand (only few hours old) experience :D

also stock & custom kernels are more up-to-date & stable, better working than Froyo based kernels & ROMs

e.g. I had to factory reset/wipe, reboot, reflash, re-install the phone for at least 1-2 dozen times until I could use the phone

with CM7 it's only one time and everything's done ! :cool:

*switching back to CM7 now (enough adventure for now ^^)*
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] anamika:

He's not kidding. Considering this is actually the first CM7 nightly for SGS, there is always a risk of things going wrong, even over time. And only time will tell. Each individual is taking that individual risk here if he chooses to. Beyond that, one can't truly say.

please don't ask for a timeline .
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
Ummm...he did chime in. He said not to flash it. I see no reason for him to waste time saying any more.

Of course you can flash it anyway, but I think you can assume that in this case the normal "do so at your risk" is a bit riskier than normal as I have never known codeworkx to warn needlessly.

Good luck, hope it works out for you.
