We don't mean the installation of the zip(after manually downloaded from the nightlies site).If you have rom manager premium till nightly 69 there is a notification from rom manager that a new nightly is out.Also from rom manager- download rom -cyanogenmod nightlies till nightly 69 is there,but 71 and 72 does not exist.Not a big deal for me but this is what we mean

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheSaw:
Hm, thanks... this kinda fixed it for me, it created two more APN's, and the MMS worked, but the internet didn't. So I copied all the data from the Tweakker APN's into my default ones, and deleted the others. This made both my MMS and internet work. I've sent 3 MMS's, and then they stopped again. Now I'm back to the initial state. I'll have to experiment more with these...

Ok I promise I've had a search for this for the last 15 minutes and I'm going a bit crazy.. My contacts don't seem to be listing properly... I only have 10 contacts listed after syncing my account, strangely they are all my family members (i.e. the ones I've actually bothered to set up birthdays for).

If I look at my SMSs all the names of my contacts are present, so it would seem they are on the phone, it's just that when I'm looking at my contacts, only 10 are listed (there should be 100+).

I've looked through the menus/preferences under contacts, can't see anything.

Can anyone help?

EDIT - Actually on checking my google account, it seems to be showing only the ones listed under 'my contacts', and is ignoring ones I've filtered out into different groups.. is that intentional?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] veyka:
Open contacts, hit menu, hit display options, inside there will be a menu item which will let you chose which groups to display.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robdood:
Oh my goodness, how blind of me, I didn't think to actually click on the account name. Thank you.

Another(!) question, not sure if it's directly related to Cyanogenmod though. PowerAmp won't list emmc (as I'm sure everyone except me is aware, lol). So, I've googled away trying to figure it out, and found several different methods which involve using terminal. I've tried the following and neither gives me emmc in poweramp.

$ su
# umount /mnt/emmc
# vold /mnt/emmc

$ su
# chmod 777 /mnt/emmc

Is there an established / proper way of doing this? Does CM have an option somewhere that will just give emmc proper read/write access for this kind of purpose?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robbiev80:
Yes working fine here.

Adding any USB device

Is it possible to add any USB device or only those from sec_whitelist.h? The answer seem to be that only HID, camera, hub or storage devices are possible.

See http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=18081882#post18081882 for details.

I would like to use a USB to serial adapter using ftdi_sio.ko, I could compile the driver myself and insmod it, but would rather avoid to have to compile the complete kernel.

Friends,

I heard that Atinm has requested samsung for more source release, so that he can make CM 7 better. He also mentions that the BT source belongs to Broadcom. Any update on this from Samsung.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4qu4rius:
Hello there,

I've used Codeworxks bastard build and #71 for a couple of days each, and I don't see any changes as far as battery drain are concerned."Android OS" still scores abnormaly high in battery stats.

(I'm not sure these were supposed to improve on this issue, but anyway...)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atinm:
We've said before - Android OS percentage is meaningless. What matters is whether your phone goes into deep sleep or not (use CPUSpy app to check) and how much battery usage you actually get. If you think about it, if you idle your phone from battery full in airplane mode to down to empty, 100% of the usage will be in Android OS.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donalgodon:
Thinking about flashing this. Is it really so small? Less than 100 MB?

I found the Google Apps zip also.

What version of CWM does it have?

If I use it and want to go back to my previous NANDROID backup, can I do it via CWM? (Using CF-Root now).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK00150:
How do I see if it gets in deep sleep? Just that it uses the lowest frequencies a lot?

EDIT: Thanks, I see the newest version has a separate indicator for that...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maceddy:
Here are my CPUSpy results with #72

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mixy:
Either you have not set it correctly, or you have not reset your CPYspy stats after doing so :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maceddy:
I noticed it too...

Not quite sure how to use those settings yet... :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4qu4rius:
Thank you for this answer.

Meaningless for you for understanding/fixing the issue, probably. But that's the one thing a regular user will notice when comparing to stock.

Clearly I get 36 hours or light use with the nightlies while all samsung based ones gave me 3 days with the same usage scenarios.

Anyway, it seems I do have a problem with deep sleep: I certainly haven't used my phone for 5h today
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nebucatnetzer:
There are a lot of people reporting high AOS percentage on stock ROMs.

The thing with the AOS percentage is that it means something like 75% of 1%.

Or in better words. 100% of nothing is still nothing.

To your deep sleep problem. Do you listend to music or some other app running in the background. I'm sure you heard of Betterbatterystats use it to track down what's causing wakelocks.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4qu4rius:
Yep, that's what I inferred from atinm's answer.

Anyway I edited my post:

I barely get 36 hours of usage with CM7 compared to 3 days with stocks or modded stocks (VillainROM, RomKitchen,....)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nebucatnetzer:
I don't know how it is with the newest version but when I tried CM7 a while ago I had a better battery life. I'll give it a new try on Wednesday when I have my new nonbluetooth headphones.

By the way: I hope we get Ice Cream Sandwich soon that would be awesome :starts dreaming of something he doesn't know yet:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4qu4rius:
Test done this evening:

After having sent the screenshot above, I set the phone in plane mode and set it aside for about 1 hour. I look at cpu spy again, almost all the time added was in the 200MHz line, and none to deep sleep...

(Hope this helps, i'll yry to get a logcat tomorrow)

I had a problem a few days ago on cm7 where it never went to deep sleep. I was working on some other issues at the time but I think I fixed it by wiping caches, data, and doing a fresh install. Nothing else I tried worked. Now it deep sleeps like it should. I have noticed it won't deep sleep if plugged into a charger. I don't know if you know that already or if it matters. Hope you find an easier fix.

The phone didn't pass the first galaxy s II first boot screen... was just blank after first screen. What could be wrong?

I have spent hours trying to debug the issue? Please help :)

Yellowish tint on left side:

The yellow tint on left side (1/4 to 1/3) is a well known problem with the S2. I had 5 devices with more or less yellow tint on left side. Three friends of mine had the same problem. There are a lot reports of this negative effect.

Good to see on dark or mid gray background.

There are ROMs which solve this problem after activation of lockscreen. If you boot the phone you still have the yellow tint effect, you just activate/deactivate the lockscreen and the effect has been fixed.

I have tested different ROMs:

Samsung Vendor ROM KH3 / KI3 - tint fixed

Litening Custom Vendor ROM KH3- tint NOT fixed

Leomar Revolution Custom Vendor ROM KH3 / KI3 - tint fixed

MIUI 1.9.23 - CM7 kernel - tint NOT fixed

MIUI 1.9.23 - Xcell kernel - tint fixed

CM7 Build 60 - tint NOT fixed

GALNET MIUI 2.9.23 Stable - Xcell kernel - tint fixed

I would like to use CM7 so much but with the yellowish tint on left side it is not very attractive, you see it at keyboards, dialer, websites etc.

What exactly isn't working? Is it stuck on "Starting Download"? If so, you might try disabling wi-fi and downloading with cell data...worked for me when I had the same issue several times (and not just on Build #72).

This has also happened to me on a number of occasions and I haven't been able to find a reason for it, and it's not related to any specific build number as far as I've seen either. I haven't noticed the issue with simultaneous battery drain, but that may just be because I wasn't looking for it. Let me know if you or anyone figures out what causes this and/or how to fix it.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tangiers:
Mine also reboots. I remember the Htc G2 had the same issue with an early version of cwm. I'm not sure but I think there is a special partition which runs that annoying battery graphic and notification when the phone is off and charging. It doesn't seem to be part of the rom because flashing different roms doesn't get rid of it. The bug was fixed eventually (the first fix wasn't a real fix, it only kept the phone in recovery but switched the screen off). I think the Cwm devs need to fix this rather than the CyanogenMod devs. Of course, I may be way off the mark.....
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tangiers:
Mine worked. You also get the option to sync subfolders which you don't get with stock.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tangiers:
I

On the rebooting with charger, I see that if you go to your real cwm recovery (the one that came with your kernel and which you used to flash CyanogenMod) and not the ghost ROM Manager one which you get when you flash a recovery from Rom Manager, and select "power off", the phone reboots into recovery if the charger is on. I think it is a failsafe recovery method that Samsung has put on a partition not affected by the flashing of a Rom?
