[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tonime:
Is the test 2? Thank´s.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j3di:
Getting a download error. Guess rom manager needs a little time after you upload a new file?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robbiev80:
same here.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codeworkx:
right, takes some minutes.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nebucatnetzer:
Not here anymore yeah!

By the way what did you change? Is the text already fixed or do changed something else?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Boonyard:
Er... Are you all talking about build #82? As I downloaded that about half an hour ago.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AMDPOWERFIST:
Just testing out the 3G on the new #82, still seems to have the network issue.

very little HSDPA and alot of 3G / G (slow)

Even with the implementation of fast dormancy, hasnt fixed it...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nebucatnetzer:
Nope we're talking about a test build made by codeworkx.

You can download it trough Rom Manager.

Edit: Text looks now like normal.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Boonyard:
Here's a question.

Should you calibrate the battery after installing a new nightly?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Boonyard:
Ah ok, thought I was missing something!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gullygossner:
Not required
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Boonyard:
Cool, thanks.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j3di:
Thanks Codeworkx, -2 is pretty much perfect!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomascunill:
Got a little question. What are the differences between the nightlies and this test build number 2 you're all talking about? I'm actually on 80 nightly.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j3di:
Samsungs mDNIe display engine has been enabled in the kernel
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nebucatnetzer:
Which means the colours are now better looking and probably some improvements under the hood.

I`ve searched and treked through the many of the last hundred pages since the bluetooth fix, but I haven`t seen this. Bluetooth works fine except that once it`s paired with my car kit it doesn`t automatically reconnect after being disconnected. I just have to enter wireless settings and it`s listed as paired but not connected and press connect. I`m not complaining mind, the fix is fantastic.

I lost my gmail account profile after flashing test #2. It won't let me add a gmail account now. Thank God I did a nandroid backup. :cool:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomascunill:
Ok so it should be an improvement over the nightlies? Do I hape to do a full wipe to install that test build or just on top of the 80 nightly?

Sorry for the questions it's just that I'm new to this AOSP world and it is much different that samsung firmware based custom ROMS.

Wellm thanks in advance for your help.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codeworkx:
you cannot calibrate a battery. you can just wipe the statistics which will just delete the statistics but not improve your battery lifetime or something else.

who is telling you such a ****?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codeworkx:
wait for the next nightly, will have another bluetooth fix.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codeworkx:
you just lost your gapps. -.-

reflash gapps and everything is fine.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] funkateer2:
+1.that's what I did, trough rom manager. Works fine
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nebucatnetzer:
You always can try without but if you get problems try again with a wipe.

I reckon it depends what they're changing. Maybe sometimes it's to deep inside the system so you're getting fcs etc.

I had to performe a wipe but I'm not sure if it's because of the test or of something else, tried many things at the same time.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Arkanius:
Also remember guys to download this

https://market.android.com/details?id=org.projectvoodoo.screentunedev&feature=search_result

To remove banding and reduce the oversharpening
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Boonyard:
I was just using that word as it seems to be common parlance for the wiping of stats.

So is there no real benefit to doing it when you switch roms?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] veyka:
Not needed on newest test, everything looks great. (to me anyway.)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robbiev80:
I tried but it still would not let me. I'll just wait for the next nightly.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomascunill:
As I understand it is useful so the system can interpret better what is using your battery, and giving you accurate info about the battery percentage etc. But it shouldn't have an effect on the battery life itself. I'm not 100% surebut this is the info I have gathered,
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Arkanius:
Also not to be a bother but...

Is there any hope to have the Audio redirection when the phone is Docked, fixed?

In the current state, the audio is not redirected to the dock and through the lineout. (No voice or audio)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nebucatnetzer:
For me to, far better then on any stock ROM/ Kernel I tried.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Boonyard:
Interesting... Thank you.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j3di:
I think we'll see this in the next nightly but the improvements to the display are significant in my opinion. As far as flashing test builds and such, I always wipe cache and dalvik as it only takes a sec.

Hey guys, just put the latest nightly on there, that being #82.

I had wiped all thats necessary before flashing the ROM, had to flash again as you do :) and it is all set up, however the camcorder is giving me a FC.

And also, the ROM manager doesn't seem to want to install gapps or anything, it will download it, then launch recovery, but i get the white triangle with a yellow exclamation. So ive manually installed gapps via recovery myself, from the sd card and i don't even see it at all. Any suggestions???

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomascunill:
For the camera try movingall pictures and videos taken with the stock samsung camera from the DCIM/camera folder. That seems to have worked for some peple.

As for ROM manager I never was able to use it so I install everything manually via CWM myself. For google apps, download them from here http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Latest_Version#Google_Apps

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] a03dugga:
Cheers for the camcorder fix, sorted now, though its not as good as stock camera is it? the video seemed jumpy and not as clear. Maybe some improvements soon aye.

Thats what i ended up doing but i couldnt see any google apps installed after running the thing in CWM.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomascunill:
FOr the camera, yeah it's a lot worse than samsung one. But I prefer having a smooth interface so for me at least it is not that big of a deal.

For the google apps, I had no problems. Anyway that file won't install every google app, there are some like gmail, youtube, and others that you will have to install through the market. At least market and maps and gtalk come in the package, you should open it with your PC and see whats inside. You should try to flash again though, wiping cache and dalvik cache, or maybe even reboot and see what happens (rebooting often solves these kind of problems)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xgrind:

Well, I love android for many other reasons but yes, multitasking is poor indeed. Anyone that had a Maemo N900 knows what true multitasking is. Hope we get some improvements on ICS.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atinm:
No, because Android does CPU and memory management just fine on its own and doesn't need help from users who don't know what they're doing.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joelteixeira:
Agreed, the memory management is excellent and that's why I don't use task killers at all. But I think that an (future) option to tell the system to keep one specific application alive wouldn't interfere significantly.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] King Shady:
Are you kidding me? Android and webOS are known to have "the best" multitasking available on a mobile platform. In my opinion, webOS has the best because the cards are so simple and intuitive, however I love the look of the new ICS multitasking

Hi, it is not just you. I am always getting -89dbm regardless of where I am. However battery life is decent though. I am getting an average of 1.27% drain per hour with 3g network and google sync on.

The only annoying part is that signal bars are always disconnected from google server (signal bars become white or grey). It does not happen on my DHD though running cm7 too. Strange. Not sure what exactly is causing this.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mikulec:

yes, Diceplayer prompted showing Hardware accelerated playback is not supported and to use Software instead.

is there a setting in CM to enabler HW acceleration? or its not in the works yet?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sepph:
Hi,

I've been having some battery problems with CM after I installed the stable release yesterday. Basically it uses an unreal amount of power in a very short time.

After installing, browsing the menus brought the battery down from 95% to 73% in 20 minutes. It was using so much battery that it was draining it even with the charger plugged in (at a much slower pace but still).

Also, charging was very slow with the screen off (0% in 5 minutes). I had to revert back to my previous ROM (MIUI if it has any importance), on which I can easily get 3 days of medium usage (few games, music, wifi on at all times).

After reverting battery usage is back to normal.

So what's wrong? Why does CM drain my entire battery in less than 2 hours of browsing the menus? When checking battery usage I had about 40% display and 36% cell standby.

Any info would be welcome, thank you.

Updated my white SGS 2 (int. version) to nightly #82 and vold.fstab was overwritten :D I was wondering why my phone said there is no sdcard. I've changed /mnt/emmc und /mnt/sdcard again and the phone can be used without external sd card again. :D

I hope that the codechange for this swap of mountpoints is merged soon. SGS 2 uses three storages, internal (2GB), internal SD (16 GB) and optional external SD. At the moment ext. SD is mounted to /mnt/sdcard und internal to /mnt/emmc but a lot of apps doesn't recognize /mnt/emmc.

By the way BT file transfers works fine. I hoped for an issue. :D So no logcat for devs. Camera app works fine but I'm missing touch to focus and some settings.

PlayerPro gets FC if I try to use a DSP. Tonight I'll take a logcat.

Funny: My battery is magical. After a crash I lost around 30% but after restarting it charged itself around 8%. I know thats because of wipe battery stats, etc. But it's funny.

Downloads from market through wifi

Hey Guys,

Need your inputs on the following:

I am using wifi to go online on my phone for the first time. And everything works, its excellent, HOWEVER, when i try to download an application from the market, it goes fine till it actual download screen, where it just shows downloading, but nothing does download. The moment I kick in my 3G data network, zip, the download completes.

Any thoughts?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deciduous Sprue:
I had the same issue yesterday when I managed to install Cyanogen for the first time. Don't know what the solution was, it just started working after a while.

I'm not discounting a problem with the wifi I was using, but it was a bit strange.

I'm still having camera FC's. i tried moving/deleting my old pictures and videos.

Also tried fix_permissions. Still FC when i open camera and press 'take picture' button.

However:

When i start the camera, it default starts with the back-camera. When i switch to the front-camera, and back to the back-camera, i can take pictures without problems..

when i relaunch the app, same problem, and i need to switch to front-cam and back again before i can take pictures. Recording video's gives no problems.

Anyone has a solution for this maybe?

-edit- i am running Nightly #81 (update almost every time) but i have this issue since nightly #20 or something like that.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dark79:
Having trouble with getting Compatibility mode to stick when changing the LCD Density. Currently using 182 with the paid LCD Density app.

I enable compatibility mode in that app and disable it in SpareParts (won't work the other way around or with both enabled).

It works fine until I rotate the screen from portrait to landscape. After that, it's back to apps not always filling up the screen in both portrait and landscape. The only way to fix it again is to go into both SpareParts and LCD Density app and click the Compatibility boxes twice and reboot.

Anyone else seeing this? This method always worked fine with other phones, but doesn't seem to work with the SGS2.

EDIT: This isn't CM7 specific either. It happens with stock mods, too.

EDIT2: I removed the LCD Density app and just put the desired density in build.prop. Can't change LCD density on the fly as easily, but whatever. It seems to be fine except for holding the Home button to bring up the list of previously run apps. That still loses full screen when I rotate back and forth.
