is the sound widget in notification bat meant to do anything? I'm running nightly 100 and when pressing the sound widget in notification bar nothing happens (compared to samsung sound notification widget where it went from silent to normal and vise versa) . the odd thing is , if i set the Vibrate setting to Always, then if i press the sound widget it changes the vibrate settings from Always to "in silent mode only" and that's it. it won't do silent to normal (not-silent)! hope to see it fixed (assuming it is a bug and not some strange implementation of what sound widget is meant to do :-)...)

Also the "data" widget does work but it requires 2-3 tabs to disable , 1 tap to enable! is this expected?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrysilis:
https://www.google.com/search?btnG=...axy+SII+Q&A"+ site:xdaforums.com+sound+widget

Essentially Settings->CyanogenMod Settings->Interface->Notification Power widget->Widget Buttons->Sound modes->(check the appropriate boxes). From here.

No idea about data, sorry!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] afilopou:
Regarding data, you mean from power widget on screen? If yes then just test it.1 click enabled and 1 click disabled.No problem

If you mean the buttons in notifications it takes a little bit to change from 3g to 2g but with just 1 click.Note that you must define network modes in notification power widget settings

Proxy Settings

I want to set my proxy settings, because i'm on a Wifi network where i need a proxy to go on the internet. But i couldn't find the option in the Wifi settings menu. On the I9000 forum i read that you can reach the proxy settings by: Long press home screen > Custom Shortcut > Pick your activity > Settings > Proxy setting. But the Proxy settings option also isn't in that list.

If anyone has a solution, i would be glad to hear it.

hey everyone i am currently using leo/check rom with the kitchen however cyanogenMod has always caught my attention and ive always heard many users talking about it :-)

i love tinkering around with my sgs2 and have been flashing custom roms since the day i got it , cyanogenMod was in early stages then and i use the features that wernt working but from what i am reading everything seems quite stable now for a daily rom , is that right??

would it be suitable for a daily rom ie are things like camera and stereo bluetooth and music player fully working now??

how is the battery life on the rom??

are there black themes avalible?? or many decent themes avalible??

do the google apps like navigation work fine and market place??

would you recomend flashing it and giving it a go ??

thanks for any advice thought this would be the place to ask :-)

Q: What are the known issues?

A: Issues that I can remember:

- Video playback - some formats are not recognized, use an alternative app for video playback

- Camera - some modes don't work

- TVout, MHL

- FMRadio

- Issues when using the 2G/3G-Switch

- Volume issues (some report too high, others too low)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yamato-san:
Stereo bluetoth work fine. Camera is quite OK. Battery roughly the same as the newest Samsung ROMs. Navigation and market without any problems. Many themes on the Market. Cynaogen is clearly in many ways much better than the Samsung ROMs. Go it! Sorry for my bad English.

My volume issue is weird, I can raise the volume (for example listen to music)

4 steps, afterwards I can see the volume bar going up, but the music volume stays the same...

Another thing about the screen auto brightness:

Is it only me or is the auto brightness in CM very low? In stock firmwares

auto brightness seems to better balanced and the display seem to be overall brighter...

And no, it is not an option to manually adjust my brightness all day ;-)

Kind regards,

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shotta35:
Volume issue is known as you mentioned. Maybe fixed when code for Galaxy Nexus is released.

Brightness too but the workaround for that is just going to:

Settings - CM Settings - Display - Automatic Backlight - Edit Custom (Enable) - Edit Other levels.... set to 40/60/90/150/255 OR whatever others you like. Search the thread for settings.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KimHdk:
I just upgraded to #101 and was under the impresion that the Bluetooth sleep issue was fixed. However, when listening to podcasts in Doggcatcher, there is no sound when the screen is off. In the normal music player I have no problems.

I also experince some wierd behavior regarding media and notification volume:

Media volume:

On the lowest media volume it is way louder than stock. I would like to have the option for a lower volume.

The media volume is in approx. 15 steps, but only the first 7 steps makes a difference. The last 8 steps the voume is the same at step 7.

Notification volume:

Just as the media volume, the lowest possible notification volume is way louder than stock. Also here I would like the option for a lower volume. IMO It is simply too loud for a quite office environment.

As always... Thanks for your fantastic work on this ROM, I really like it and appreciate your work. Keep it up guys!

Thanks

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Silent8Strike:
I think all you have to do is flash one of the complete stock ROMs from the region you bought the phone via Odin then use the USB jig to erase any record of flashing anything in download mode.

Hello all,

CM7 nightlies are getting better and better, thanks for all the hard work dev's!

I have a small question concerning the Modems - what modem version is everyone using? is there a depository somewhere to download different versions?

I currently have I9100XXKH3 and I noticed that Modem Standby is the largest battery drain by far. I lost 40% overnight while it just sat there on the coffee table.

I know, I read your post, but you said you haven't actually tried to activate your warranty yet since you're "hoping it still works." I'm trying to look for testimonials from others who have actually returned their phones to the manufacturer with no problems.

@ atinm:

What exactly do you need to dive into the problem? I have a "Jawbone Icon" bluetooth headset. The volume level always stays the same when trying to adjust it. The optical bar of the level is moving up and down, but the actual volume doesn`t change for me.

I attached a logcat where bluetooth already was enabled when starting, after logcat start I turned on my headset, it connected, I made a call, I played around with the bluetooth call in volume (it did not change like described above) and ended the call.

Hope this helps finding the problem.

Am I supposed to make a post in the cm dev thread?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] afilopou:
99% this caused from media manager. Media file or files in your sdcard causing loop scanning of media manager.Check the names of the files (helped me to rename for example my photos 001,002,003 etc)

With cpu spy (free in market) you can see your cpu staying at high levels.With watchdog and/or system panel (paid in market) you can see which service or app causing the overheating

Ok, so I used ODIN and flashed the official GT-I9100_XEN_I9100CEKI2_I9100XENKH1_I9100XXKI1 .tar

Then it was stuck in infinite boot, so I went to the stock recovery and formatted, cleared cache. This seemed to allow it to boot.

Then I added the CF-Root kernel via ODIN

Then I booted to recovery and installed CM7 101, plus different kernel.

Rebooted all seemed fine, so I went into CWM and tried to installed the KI4 modem again.

Again the phone was stuck on the boot screen without access to Recovery.
