I've had a small bug recently since upgrading to 1.5.1.....

The touch key buttons (back and menu) do not always stay lit despite having it configured in the menu to be always on.

If i lock the phone and then unlock the bug seems to go away for a while.

Anyone else having similar trouble? I suspect its a bug in kh3
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Deejay2k1:
Does anyone has the problem that the battery drains very fast with the new version 1.5.1. I event cant Disable the Fast Dormancy with the proposed Dial *#9900#. Can anyone give me a tip how to optimize it. I am running the new version now for about 6 days.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] SkilletDesire:
Found a bug screen display time out not sticking keeps reverting to the default 15sec.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] SkilletDesire:
get setcpu drop the frequency and voltages.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] superleeds27:
Snap! I dialled the number and it gave me an error :S
[Galaxy S II Android Development] superleeds27:
*#*#9900#*#*

Works for me :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] hEEGy:
Ok, thanks ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Deejay2k1:
thanks that works also for me maybe the first post should be updated to this code and not the false one.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] yaronAD:
:)....I'V READ THE " MENU"......It is very close to Golauncher....but not quite.

I personally don't find any reason to replace GoLauncher - probably the best launcher there is:cool:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] NZgeek:
Sorry for the late response...

Yes, it's just the tutorial/test that was removed. Panning itself still works just fine. And you're correct about removing everything from system/app except the panning apk.

I'm kinda surprised at how easy it is to create a CWM zip that puts apks into your system/app directory. The real work is done inside META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script, and almost all of my zips have near identical updater-script files. The only thing I need to change is the first line, which simply prints what it's installing.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] synxx:
*#9900# also works for me, bit of a shorter version :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] yaronAD:
1 THX

2 Did some one actually tried this?>>>> it is bugged and got my phone to stuck on boot:confused:

has to nandroid
[Galaxy S II Android Development] elite_gamer04:
Hmmm thats weird NZGeek - maybe because I'm not using the stock TW launcher and GOLauncher instead that Panning doesn't work?

I hold down an icon on the Home Screen and move my phone from left > right and nothing happens haha?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Rockin_Zombie:
That's a touchwiz only feature AFAIK
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kahvitahra:
Of course i allways test it before posting. Tested on stock 1.51. Not with one that has rtl patch or any other that changes framework.jar

Edit. 80 downloads since posting, so guess someone tested it ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] spradling:
I'm also stuck on boot, but I'm running 1.5 not 1.5.1, thanks god I did a nandroid backup!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] HyperShad0w:
I'm sorry if someone has already asked this, but has anyone experienced a lag when taking photos in the dark with flash? Photos are being taken slightly later (or earlier?) than they should be, so only a bottom band of the photo appears illuminated. Never used to happen with other roms. Could it be a hacked camera bug?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] hEEGy:
After the bootanimation, the screen is black during 2/3 minutes (maybe a little more), this is normal, just wait!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kahvitahra:
Yes, the boot takes really long. As long as its not "looping" just wait.

If some of you have fcs or something, try clearing caches.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] :
will there be a new update for this rom? just being curious thats all.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KennyLegend:
What's there to update? DG has stated he Will continue to support this rom and will probably enlist help.

I'm sure there Will be updates when Samsung releases new stuff.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] 0355:
Sammy's firmware is still at KH3... What could dg do to modify/update that?

Making a new release based on same KH3 is nonsense (even more if you notice that 1.5.1 is very good, maybe the best Cognition released ever...).
[Galaxy S II Android Development] :
thanks and yeah good point..Rom is running greatly anyway
[Galaxy S II Android Development] yaronAD:
As I said - THX for your efforts:)

for me personally they are much appreciated

I'v lost confidence in this tweek.....I beleve I'v waited more than 6 min....before restored back

(didn't nandroid just before so finally I had to go a week back:o)

and I think would be better to notify that the boot is very long....so people wont get hart Attucks:)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] superleeds27:
Did we ever get a result/answer for this?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] lewman:
Is the XT9 / Predictive text issue with the samsung keyboard fixed then? Thought it was identified in 1.51?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KennyLegend:
It hasn't been fixed yet but there's s flashable zip floating around by NZgeek that fixes it. Its been posted a few times. Have a little search back a bit
[Galaxy S II Android Development] lewman:
Thanks for that! Was the only thing keeping me away from upgrading :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] troffers:
Mine disappeared after turning off "allow automatic updates" in the Market.

Give it a go...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Mostafa Hijazi:
hello. thanks for the hard work. i flashed to cognition from chriskelo's rom. but for some strange reason jkay theme settings deosn't work. it is saying please install jkay theme ??!! any ideas ? i tried reinstalled the jkay themedeluxe, falshed it one more time, flashed to chriskelo's and to this, still the same..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] spradling:
I waited like 30min...

Forgot about bounce and just restored from backup.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kva:
In CWM do:

* flash bounce effect

* clean dalvik-cache

It worked with no problems for me.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] richardddd:
Epic rom! Ultra smooooth! :D

One thing though. Can't use Sammy's email apparently anymore because I can't accept the tos of social hub. Added all the uninstalled socialhub apk's to system/app but no success there. Any ideas? :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nikzDHD:
Make sure you also include sevenengine and signin.apk as well.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] chris2busy:
sorry..where is that zip you speak of, sir? i am GREATLY interested..it only affects overscroll effect,right?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kahvitahra:
4 pages back.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] chris2busy:
i am on cog 1.5 with NO option to upgrade for the foreseeable future...will this zip work with 1.5 ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KennyLegend:
Don't ever flash anything unless ur gonna have pc access afterwards.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] synxx:
if you go to: settings--accounts and sync--add account and then choose your email provider from there. then find the email app and your email should automaticly be set up. im with hotmail and thats what i did to bypass the terms of service. let me know how it goes.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nikzDHD:
Nandroid, make a backup of your current stable setup via CWM, flash the bounce zip, if you start getting FCs, Vol Up, Home + Power will get you into CWM, wipe and restore backup :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] richardddd:
Included sevenengine and it worked fine! Thanks mate :D much appreciated!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] richardddd:
Does somebody know how to get the normal scroll bounce effect back? Searched this thread without results :/

Hi guys, I have a quick question:

I am currently running cognition, is there a way to skip song tracks by pressing down the volume rockers? Like on the Blackberries?

Thanks!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KennyLegend:
It doesn't work on the rom as it is anyway unless there's a modification you can make. I haven't heard of it to be honest.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] itsmewajid:

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Unclean009:
Is it possible to flash a newer modem without having to go through the pain of reflashing a stock firmware?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] rovex:
Now have root, but its bootlooping. Is it due to Tegrak overclock? How do i fix it?

Ok tried adb to remove Tegrak.. No time didnt work.

Tried to factory wipe.. wont boot.

Now reflashing 1.05 to see if that works.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] vegetaleb:
Sorry I am a samsung noob but do you have to root with CF-Root before flashing this rom?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jastonas:
Is there any overscroll effect out there for use with this rom?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] davidsavenberg:
Hey buddy, I would recommend you flashing this one http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1118693, I always do before a new ROM. First I also always flash so that I come from stock too.

Everytime i upgrade I using Super One click rooting solution and it works.. Designgears is still working on it and he is still trying to understand what is causing this issue..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Rixsta:
Im trying to understand why I never get this problem ....
[Galaxy S II Android Development] davidsavenberg:
I just noticed after flashing this that tegrak OC doesnt work with this version. The other releases have been working great. Could it be the new kernel optimization or what it was? :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] xinfinityoO:
installed 1.06.. when i reboot he phone. the camera clicking sound comes up when it boots to the lock screen.. why is that happeining ??
[Galaxy S II Android Development] knightnz:
1) If you want to keep your stuff, then yes.

2) CWM isn't on the market. Easiest way is to install Litening ROM first with Odin using their instructions so you get CWM etc. Then flash Cognition from CWM.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] designgears:
Well, after many many deals falling thru I still have my Euro SGS2...

And I made an amazing discovery. The horrid battery drain was caused by something on the sdcard. After I wiped it a couple days ago it has gone back to 2% loss over a 12hr deep sleep.

Not sure what on the sdcard card the issue tho. It wasn't the gallery, I didn't have any images on there.

Anyone else have this happen?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] King Shady:
Glad your back Captain... I tried other Roms and always came back to Cog :). And no I haven't experienced that problem - maybe a malicious app? My battery is stellar.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Vozie_Stockholm:
Video recorded in portrait get played in landscape....

Video recorded in portrait mode get played in landscape, thus the portrait oriented video get squeezed in and played "standing up" in "landscape mode". I don't have the knowledge to track down where the problem lies. Could anybody help out? Can I change the camera application or code the video differently? Some of my old videos (form other phones) filmed in portrait plays back ok.

Edit: I discovered that you can "trick" the camera. If you start to record the video in landscape mode (1 sec) and then turn to portrait mode you trick the video to play full screen portrait.

Guess that this points to some problem with the information embedded in the video of the physical orientation of the camera while filming.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] eybee1970:
never had this problem with batt drain. Your ROM is rockstable, fast and battery friendly.

Once I had a prob with battery drain, cause i made a noobish mistake: I forgot to set back Governor from 'performance' to 'on demand' after doing benchmarking, so I was running on 1200 mhz for 8 hours and was wondering battery went down rapidly :D:D:D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] stony2k:
Yes please, tell me how to do it.

Btw: Dark MIUI isn't for Cognition, thats why I couldn't test it yet.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] eybee1970:
you can take Dark MIUI from LeoMars Revolution App. As it was also made for XXKH3-ROM, it will work perfectly on Cognition 1.5.1 ;)

You can directly download here and flash with CWM-App: http://leomar75.celogeek.com/xxkh3/DarkMIUI.zip

Hey guys,

Thinking of trying this ROM now after a while on Villain.

The OP states no wipe required on the download link so I'm good to flash after a backup?

Cheers
[Galaxy S II Android Development] winwiz:
hi matey,

no wipe is only for existing users. for yourself its going to have to be a full wipe

p.s. you can do a nandroid backup of your villain and go back to it quite easily!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] troffers:
Nice one, I thought as much.

Thanks fella! :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] daoom:
I've been running this ROM for several weeks without any issues what so ever.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] JJEgan:
Whatever is on the card you wipe will be gone .

jje
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KennyLegend:
Everything ! Its the best course if action if you have unusually high battery drain. And if ur gonna wipe ur sd card id flash a stock rom first followed by *2767*3855# in the dialer . That Will wipe it fir ya.

So....

1. Flash stock rom

2.*2767*3855#

3.Flash speedmod or cf root for root and cwm .

4. Put cognition on sd card

5. Boot to cwm and flash cog .

6. Restore apps you backed up earlier ( not data and not system data)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] skylinestan:
Well what if we don't wana going through all this procedure again?can we just format the sd card without flashing stock rom using cog ROM??
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KennyLegend:
Yes of course .....but the above procedure just insures a clean install.

Try the format first by typing in the code above and flash cog.

If u still have battery issues you can go the longer route later if u want.

Also don't forget to check out betterbatterystats to see if there's a rogue app or widget keeping ur phone awake.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] skylinestan:
Thanx for the info...yes i have check my betterbatterystats & this bug eating & consuming wakelocks quite a time..is GTalk_Async_Conn.No matter i remove gtalk & freeze it with TB,this **** won't going away...:mad:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MTA99:
Odd you should mention this. Today I managed a new personal battery drain record - 100% to zero in just over 3hrs. This might be understandable if I was playing video or games but I was at work so the phone got next to no use. I'll post the screenshot later with the battery usage.

The behaviour was very strange. If I locked the phone the screen would switch off as normal then a few seconds later the CRT animation would play again before the screen switched *on* (without me touching it) about 1min after. So the majority of the battery usage is display. From this "self-awake" position if I pressed the power button the display would switch off but the back of the phone would get very hot and I could unlock and use the phone (using haptic feedback to navigate) but the screen remained off. Only way to get it back was a battery pull or to hold the power button for 15-20secs.

I've uninstalled all new apps and any apps that were recently updated but to no avail. I even flashed Cog 1.51 over the top to try and fix it. I'm about to factory reset the phone and start from a fresh install.

I wasn't going to mention it since this is a developers thread not a troubleshoot but since DG is seeing some odd drain behaviour I thought I'd share my experience with the group ;) I've been using Cognition ROMs since the first few hours of owning my SGS2 and this is the first problem. Yesterday, it was fine, 20hrs+. Today, its fubar'd :confused:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] JJEgan:
I have 2 seconds wakelock on that one on a two hour use .

I have all settings off for that app and am signed out .

[Galaxy S II Android Development] TheDutchmen:

Question: I forgot to set back Governor from 'performance' to 'on demand' you said. Is this a program like setcpu or where can i find this ??

Thanks for the answer !!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nikzDHD:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=505419

Enjoy.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] TheDutchmen:
i've got setcpu but can't find governor settings or the program governor .....
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nikzDHD:
On the "Main" tab, look for scaling, those are the governors. I suggest you clear data in manage applications for SetCPU and start fresh with it, choose autodetect speeds.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] TheDutchmen:
Thanks ! I overlooked this.

Which settings do you recommend ? I set setcpu to autodetect and scaling to on demand.

The values are now set to 1200 max 200 min (default). Which settings are best for good battery live without the phone becoming sluggish ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KennyLegend:
My experience of this rom is that it is very good but definitely has a higher battery drain than other roms. ... Namely kh3 kitchen rom coupled with speedmod t38.

I'm not sure if its cog 1.51 or nimphetamine 2.1.3 but I thought id post my findings anyway.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nikzDHD:
What kernel are you using? On demand is the default governor which is fine. You can underclock to 1000 or even 800 if you want. I leave mine on 1200 really depends on how you use your phone I guess. I've tried 1000 and phone runs smooth as 1200 but didn't notice much improvements in battery so just left it as 1200.

You can try having a screen off profile as well, 200min 500max, priority 100, governor conservative.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nikzDHD:
Did you try cog with speedmod though to give a comparison?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] superleeds27:
Is Conservative tyhe best Governer to use then?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nikzDHD:
From SetCPU site:

CPU governors control exactly how the CPU scales between your "max" and "min" set frequencies. Most kernels have "ondemand" and "performance." The availability

ondemand - Available in most kernels, and the default governor in most kernels. When the CPU load reaches a certain point (see "up threshold" in Advanced Settings), ondemand will rapidly scale the CPU up to meet demand, then gradually scale the CPU down when it isn't needed.

conservative - Available in some kernels. It is similar to the ondemand governor, but will scale the CPU up more gradually to better fit demand. Conservative provides a less responsive experience than ondemand, but can save battery.

performance - Available in most kernels. It will keep the CPU running at the "max" set value at all times. This is a bit more efficient than simply setting "max" and "min" to the same value and using ondemand because the system will not waste resources scanning for the CPU load. This governor is recommended for stable benchmarking.

powersave - Available in some kernels. It will keep the CPU running at the "min" set value at all times.

userspace- A method for controlling the CPU speed that isn't currently used by SetCPU. For best results, do not use the userspace governor.

_

Really depends, that's why conservative is used for sleep mode as it uses lower battery.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] TheDutchmen:
kernel that came with this rom; 2.6.35.11 ninphetamine.

switched yesterday from MIUI bmarko rom to this one. MIUI is allso fine but a few features still not working. Headphone volume on MUI sucks and lower camera settings than the stock samsung camera. Also some issues with BT.

Will try your suggestions. added screen off with these settings and is selected. guess setcpu knows when to swicth to 1200 - 200 or the screen off setting ??
[Galaxy S II Android Development] superleeds27:
Will try switching to conservative.

Any other battery saving tips for this ROM? :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KennyLegend:
Not yet but that's my next step.

Haven't been home to use my laptop the last two days.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nikzDHD:
Yes it will, grab CPU Spy from the market and just make sure that the "deep sleep" frequency is in use, this will confirm your phone is sleeping.

Next step you can Undervolt under the voltages tab in SetCPU to save a tiny amount of battery! Big thread in the general thread users battling it out whether UV saves battery or not.... but it keeps the phone cooler :) Read up on it and don't aggressively UV.

Disable fast dormancy, delete bloatware, grab better battery stats and check for wakelocks then slowly work on removing these if you are getting huge wakelocks! or even try a different kernel.

Good combo! ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] superleeds27:
Tried Conservative, seems too laggy, have switched to Interactive

Yeah, have disabled Fast Dormancy, deleted most of the bloatware. Ive used betterybatterystats and it basicaly displayed that TALK_SYNC_CONN Or something along them lines is using the most.

I opened Gtalk, looked at the settings, unticked everything so it didn't auto sign me in, then signed out. Have also frozen it in Titanium Backup.

What other kernels are woirth using though, ive only heard good things bout the current one.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nikzDHD:
Speedmod is very good as well I think it slightly edges it compared to Ninpos regarding battery. Obviously if BLN is important you can try out Ragemod as well which is based off Speedmod.
