Issues After Installing

I have been having a couple of issues after installing the rom.

1. Handcent SMS will send the same message 3-7times over 5 - 10 minutes.

2. There is a lag when calling someone from the phone app. It can take up to 30seconds from when I press the call button for the phone to actually make the phone call. And if I press the call button multiple times the phone will make the same call after I hang up again and again for as many times as I pressed the call button. The issue tends to go a away temporarily after I restart the phone.

I would appreciate your help!

I installed Cognition as a placeholder while waiting for the S2 kitchen, but now I think the kitchen roms have to be damn good for me to change.

Eagerly awaiting version 1.40!

I am trying to install Swype 2.7xx, but no luck till now.

KE2 Stock contains it, but when doing a backup with TitaniumBackup and restoring to here, always getting FC.

Removed Swype 3.x before the restore of course.

Unfortunately they have deleted the wide range of languages (as well as mine :().

Any help would be appreciated. Thanx!

I am sorry to repeat my question, it just seems unbelievable that noone in the Android Development Section of the xdadevelopers forum actually develops.

DG,

Could I politely remind you to look at the DHCP "issue" with OpenVPN? After connecting to my VPN I have to run "netcfg tap0 dhcp" in the terminal to be assigned an IP.

Other than that, keep up the good work :cool:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jonny68:
strange one that, i use GO SMS Pro and no such problems.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jonny68:
DG again i just have one request the camera hack where you can use the volume button to take photos that would be absolutely brilliant if you can do that.

cheers ;)

[Galaxy S II Android Development] tbong777:
You are very welcome. Unfortunately thats the only APN I found to work. Others have indicated there are APNS that work on MediaNet with highr speeds. I have yet to find them. Nor do I really need higher speeds at this point. I like my battery life and I don't get any stutters using whatever data I am getting. Its all good for $10 a month. Then again battery life is not and never has been an issue for me with Juice defender and a couple extra charged batteries lying around. IT's not an iPhone..You CAN switch out the battery....

Rumor has it ATT will be going to "family plan data" and throttling high date users ala T Mobile so all of this will be moot anyway. I see this happening because they did the family plan minutes. Works for me. my wife uses less than 100MB a month. and we pay more for her data than mine.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kbiz90:
Yeah, I don't really care either about mobile data throughput on my SGS2. I just want it to work. :D

Hey, this might be a stupid question, but do you know why the default APN worked for Cognition 1.08 and not for 1.31? Can we just lookup the APN settings from 1.08? I'm confused.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Pliind:
Just thought I'd share by batteryhistory from today.

Dont understand why the battery starts draining om wifi? if anything wifi should be less battery consuming..

I've heard from somewhere that the D-link DIR-655 might be the issue?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nikzDHD:
Download betterbatterystats your phone is being kept awake, check to see what is causing wakelocks.

My wifi has been on for a while:

Screen on time 4hours 33mins. As you can see most my awake time is on par with screen on time. The major awakes are the media players as you can see from the stats.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kbiz90:
Agreed, Pliind. Here is the link:

Looks like an app, not your wifi.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jonny68:
:D haha on the contrary Wi-Fi will always consume lots of battery, i never leave it on when im not using it, the same goes for bluetooth and GPS, im amazed some people always leave these things on when they might not particularly use them and then complain of bad battery life (im not having a go at you by the way mate just talking in general;))
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kbiz90:
I thought WiFi was a major battery drain too, but look at my battery with WiFi on for eleven hours. Only 3% drain.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Pliind:
Damn my "record" is about 18 hours but with VillainRom, but 1 day is just sick! thanks for sharing, I'll try the batterybatterystats app :)

Thanks! I'll install and have a look! thanks! :)

Well the i know very well that GPS and bluetooth litteraly kills your batterypower, but the wifi chip draws less battery active than the 3g chip so naturally without calling/texting wifi should draw less battery than 3g? or did i miss something? :P
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Timpppa:
I agree. But my GPS have been on last days and i can't see difference in battery drain.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Pliind:
Aslong as your not using Maps, Locale or anything else that needs your location GPS will not be used, so there is actually no harm in having it on until you use an app that uses GPS rather than triangulation.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nikzDHD:
+ 1 no drain for me as well keeping it on, I turn it on when I'm at work and out incase god forbid I ever lose my phone Samsung Dive to the rescue!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kbiz90:
I believe GPS only becomes active when an app requests it - like Google Maps. It wasn't always like that.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jonny68:
that is impressive alright,although anytime i use Wi-Fi i would still get much drainage but i must carry out some more tests.

slight correction my end from last post, check this thread (post 11)

i too have frozen both of these and would urge anyone else who hasn't to do so.:)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kbiz90:
I use Tasker as my SGS2 locator, but I found GPS doesn't get a signal indoors! :D

I also "use wireless networks" so at least if GPS doesn't get a signal, I can find my phone if it's anywhere that I use WiFi.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] hax1:
the first rom with bln support (back / menu button as notification led for sms) is out, would be awesome if dg could add it, I think it might be one of the killer features :-)

edit: sorry just saw dg already wrote he might add it soon, sorry :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jonny68:
Not overly fussed with BLN although it would be a good addition,the real deal for me would be the camera hack,being able to take photos by using the power button instead of having to touch the screen would be super.;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kbiz90:
Unfortunately, I learned the other day that designgears is in fact human so he can only do so much so fast trying to allocate limited resources to our unlimited wants. :D

I want BLN. BLN and the trackball are the only two things I miss from my N1. It's very useful to look at your SGS2 while it's docked with the screen off and know you received an email, call, text, etc.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Factisnet:
for me to, I am happy with the Cognition on my phone, but BLN would be super nice :) thx
[Galaxy S II Android Development] m0rtiis:
Try NoLED, if you haven't already.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] kbiz90:
Do you use it? I thought there was a problem with it.

Besides, designgears is either switching kernels or waiting for Hacre to include it in his kernel. From what I can tell, Hacre is close. Very close.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] m0rtiis:
Yes, I use it. Haven't found a problem yet. I'm waiting for BLN too, but in the meantime NoLED does the job.

Hi mate,

I'd love you to add overscroll glow back in to KG6 please :) if not then can someone post me the file to put it back in please along with instructions on where to put it.

Also I love this ROM cheers!

Ps, what is PNG optimized ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] leftovermagic:
I'd really love to see BLN here too. A call recorder button would be sweet too, but BLN would add a lot to the i9100.

NoLED killed a lot of battery for me, which is already clearly a touchy subject for this phone.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kbiz90:
That's what I heard about NoLED. Looks like Hacre is less than a day away from releasing a kernel with BLN.

DG has said many times he won't add call recording. Gotta get market app or modded apk.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] rwj5279955:
I love Noled, but it does keep the screen on. BLN will be most welcome. OT but related to battery life, has anyone picked up the extended battery thing that snaps on to the phone itself?

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Teslarage:
Any of you fine gentlemen tried running this along with the KG6 kernel from Chainfire? Any input on this?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] tbong777:
LOL Battery is always the topic of conversation between ROM releases on all ROM threads. BLN will use battery life as well. not much but it is probably necessary for those who get few updates ., I don't need BLN as I know I will have updates every time I turn the screen on. Whether FB, twitter, emails, or Pulse the phone is constantly updating. The lights would always be on..

I could understand the battery talk if this were an iPhone where you cannot replace the battery and/or are forced to charge the battery during the day after heavy use for an hour or more. I have not been able to run out of battery juice even without Juice defender enabled in less than 12 hours of non rationed use. Battery life seems actually better on this handset than the Captivate,
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Fertilizer:
Battery is not an issue after the 3500mah batter upgrade haha
[Galaxy S II Android Development] endor43:
I agree wholeheartedly, call recording + BLN would be great, but I believe DG said somewhere earlier in this thread that he wasn't going to add call recording because it's illegal in some countries, if my memory serves me right.

Can anyone verify this?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] PrecisionGuided:
Yes, I seem to recall him mentioning that he wouldn't include it because it is in a legal gray area in the US.

Hi designgears :)

Any reason for including WIFI sharing + WIFI sharing manager on the 1.31v. ?

I know you ripped them out before ...no ? cos it drains the battery and not really needed....?:confused:

also do you know how to freeze the "GTALK_ASYNC_CONN" ?

I freeze GTALK already and it didn't help:confused:

many thX M8:)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kalpik:
WiFi sharing does not drain battery since 2.3.4 ROMs.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] airuzzo:

[Galaxy S II Android Development] yaronAD:

So what it is really needed for?

didn't miss them on 2.3.3 ( I think :) )

I froze them for the last 24 H - and I still don't miss them ( I think II :rolleyes::) )

And Tell me Plz ( kalpik ) where do you get information/updates like this ?....I'd like to widen my knolege :)

[Galaxy S II Android Development] designgears:
Features are done! Going to cherry pick some features tomorrow and make my own kernel. All these guys using newer toolchains that aren't recommended seem to be causing massive battery drain issues. Me no likey! Bed time for me!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kalpik:
They are needed to use wifi direct.. Its like bluetooth, only at the speeds of Wifi N! So its a neat feature :)

All this knowledge is here in these forums :)

[Galaxy S II Android Development] yaronAD:

but I couldn't understand exactly what it is(sorry ;) )

Is it a theme with Features like "widget locker" ?

(that I like so much and I understand that designgears say it is a bugged app )

:)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Dmoran:
As I understand odexed framework is going to be a problem for RTL patches!!

Tell me I am wrong or please incorporate RTL in the ROM itself or else RTL users will not have the opportunity to upgrade.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mach0boi:
You can go in the theme section and find _jkay_ mods. You can see what it looks like :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] yaronAD:
Can You give an EXMP of using WIFI direct ?......:confused:

It sounds like both sides need to have that feature ...no?

Designgears, Could you look into adding a camera.apk with tap to focus on the video mode too?

Also, I'm wondering if there is any way to deal with this Echo-issue that arises from using a TPU case by modifying the noise reduction algorithms or such, or is this outside the scope of the ROM?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kbiz90:
Which apk?

[Galaxy S II Android Development] bboran:
Will there be BLN support in the upcoming version?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kbiz90:
Almost certainly, Hacre just upgraded his Ninphetamine kernel to 2.04 which includes BLN support. So unless designgears switches kernels or mods it out, BLN should be in.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kbiz90:
You can switch modems. Flash via Odin.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] androidsjonnie:
Can't I just install the new kernel? Or do we need to wait for designgears to make it compatible or something?

I flashed Ninphetamine version 2.0.4 but i don't know what it is but something flashes up on my screen but it flashes up so quick i cant actually see what it is but it's like a FC yet nothing force closes, i went into CWM and fixed permissions but the problem persists so going back to Ninphetamine version 2.0.2 kernel i was having no problems with that.

Just a heads up for anyone thinking of flashing Ninphetamine version 2.0.4
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kbiz90:
You flash the new kernel, but if you want BLN, you have to wait for Cognition 1.40 - assuming DG uses that kernel. The kernel feature is dependent on the ROM.

I would change over too if not for the black theme by Nitrozk. Nitrozks support for the VillainRom is a bit so-so.
