hi team,

does SETCPU work with cyanogen? If so I'd like to install it and conserve more batt power. I am using nightly 27. is this safe? what setting are best fit for this build? thanks in advance. this is my first android in case this is a stupid question. =)

Lol^^ but ive stoped wiping battery stats due to the fact it would be the same..noticed this on my SGS I

So hearing it from a Dev makes me think im not crazy..
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LiFE1688:
codeworkx is absolutely right, the battery is measured as 100% or 0% based on the voltage coming out from the battery. The BMS build into the battery casing does everything, from temperature check, charge, overcharge cut, over heating charging cut, etc...

The voltage differential in lithium batteries is on average 3.7V, however at full charge, it is measured at around 4.0V, it charges at around 4.2V and it is depleted around 3.4V.

Wiping battery stats is like changing ntp domain from ntp.pool.org to something like uk.pool.ntp.org. Which is another really useless thing to do.

try this command:

ping pool.ntp.org

ping xx.pool.ntp.org (where xx is your 2 character country code)

Compare the latency and ip address. They are the same.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gtizon:
thanks. So if i use SETCPU then what can I do as of the moment that will help my battery life? Is it possible to provide me with settings so I can use as a guide? Appreciate your help team.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goldbergx:
Most useful setting right now would probably be a screen-off profile - Min 200, Max 500, conservative.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gtizon:
great. so i just get app form market then install and activate that setting within set cpu? or does xda have a set cpu app that i should use for this Cyanogen?

Thank you for the reply. I will re-flash your CWM and get rid of the CF one. I had to use the CF CWM because that was the only way to attain root, SOC kept freezing on me in several different versions. Hopefully will be able to get this bad boy working.

Try go setting, clear the ADW data and cache. See if that works. You can also try, clear cache and dalvik via CWm recovery.

No it won't as far as I know.

Go to setting, keyboard and language, set to English (US) or UK. This will work.

You can't get anything from the samsung stock roms on cm7, as they use a different framework, this has been answered many times, search before asking.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goldbergx:
Sorry went to sleep ;).

In case you haven't figured it out till now, here goes -

Goto the Profiles tab.

click on add profile, select "screen off", then "500", then "200" then "conservative" and then set "priority" to say 80. then click on "save". Then check the box next to this profile and the "enable" at the top left.

Note: If you find that your phone has trouble waking up, you would need to disable this profile. Haven't heard of anyone face it with this profile, but as every cpu is different, it might happen to anyone. Not to worry, just press the power button for 8 seconds and then restart your phone and switch off this profile (or set it to min 200, max 800.

Thank you sir. Yes my phone has issues with waking up at the setting you provided. Experienced that several times. What i did was change conservative to ondemand. Is that okay or does it defeat the purpose of conserving batt?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
There appears to have been a bug which made it default to timer, which has been fixed and is in the changelog for the next nightly.

At the moment it looks like you can resolve the problem by choosing capture mode, switching it to timer and then back to immediate.

Flashed build #31 yesterday and used it for quite a while. Battery life was bad but the whole experience is very good. I liked the interface, especially the rotary unlock wheel on the lockscreen!

Didn't like the interface of the camera application though, the stock one is very nice!

Question: Is the ADW launcher hardware accelerated?

P.S. Do not restore Facebook app with data, just restore the app is enough. I restored app and data, rebooted and the crazy repetitive "process.android.acore" force closure made the phone unusable, can't even access the dialer. ><!

Be gentle guys

I've had a couple of searches through the various forum posts concerning cyanogenmod installation/issues but honestly cant find a matching example of my problem.

Im sure its something really stupid but i recently became a father :p and am living on borrowed sleep :confused: so if someone could help me see what im missing i'd really appreciate it.

I rooted over a month ago (just in case an updated root method has been released) and am currently on VillainROM 2.3.0 (havent had time to update :( lately). When following the instructions i used Rom Manager Premium and tried to flash the SGS2 ClockworkMod recovery but kept getting:

E:failed to verify whole-file signature

E:signature verification failed

Installation aborted

So i reboot, go to CWM app and flash my previous recovery update.zip

Then i thought maybe it was because i already had ClockworkMod Recovery v4.0.1.5 from Chainfire so i downloaded Nightly#31 from within Rom Manager and tried to flash that but got the exact same sig failure.

Im sure this got resolved some time ago but would really appreciate even a link to the post that solved it as im more than happy to do some more research and figure it out for myself as im the first person to complain about dumbass posts cluttering up the threads.

Big thanks to all @ XDA in general for pure Bacon Awesomeness

I too got the same error at first. What I did was to manually go into recovery mode (ie. turn phone off, then press volume up + home + power button, and release when you see galaxy s II logo). Then in CWM just do a complete wipe and install the rom from sd card.

So basically follow the "Harder way" to install this.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicregi:
It happened to me too last week. I did a full manual wipe, factory reset and ensuring sg2 is selected on rom manager every time and it somehow fixed the issue.

Congrats on being a father mate.

You were doing the same thing that I did wrong.

You cannot flash CM7 with CF's CWM. You need to reflash codeworkx's CWM and then after its done boot into CWM (assuming you have CM7 #31 on internal SD) and wipe davlik, cache, data, and then flash. You should be good then :D

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nolanevans:
If you're running a CF-Root kernel then ROM Manager will not work. You will need to install Codeworkx's Clockworkmod Kernel via Odin for ROM Manager to function and be able to install CM7.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] veyka:
You can do it via CF root, just chose install ZIP from SDcard not flash update.zip, but you will need to flash the CM7 zip twice.

Hey guys!

I came from the HD2 where I was deeply in love with CM7 which is in my oppinion by far the best android-rom out there.

Anyway, as I traded the HD2 for a SGS2, I would really appreciate to have CM instead of stock rom. The only thing that is keeping me from switching is the long list of known bugs on page#1 of this thread. Could one of you guys please verify which of them are still active bugs and which have already been solved? I Thought some might have been solved as the post was last edited eleven days ago. Is it a good advice to completely switch to CM already as every-day-use-rom?

Thank you very much for your efforts!

The list of active issues seems about right to me.

That being said, I have 25% per ear hearing loss and the phone volume is ok for me, so maybe thats the to loud some people have been experiencing.

The camera generally works but its got a bug where it defaults to timer mode, I got it go back to normal by setting it to timer then back to normal in the settings.

I think FM's still broken, I dont use it though.

The video formats problem is due to them needing the codecs, I think they where doing to use ffmpeg in the long term.

I have been using it as my daily driver since nightly 16ish, its been good.

A few random reboots, talking to which I just got one, and I tried to grab the last_kmsg and it said it couldnt find the file, and I checked with root explorer and its not there, any clue why?

Just a few questions:

1. What is the correct settings in CYANOGEN SETTINGS for apps to be automatically downloaded into the INTERNAL SD CARD?

2. Can i move apps like FB, TWITTER, YOUTUBE and FLASHPLAYER to INTERNAL SD without any negative effects? Will they still function properly?

3. If I store music in the EXTERNAL SD, will the music player automatically recognize it? I do not see any audio files in music player even if i have audio files in EXTERNAL SD.

I'm not asking for an eta, I'm asking whether there will ever be a stable version on the galaxy s2.

The reason I ask is because according to this http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Latest_Version#Google_Apps there isn't even a stable one for the original galaxy s.

So if there still isn't one for that, chances are there will never be a stable relase for the galaxy s2 no?

I'm not saying "Hey when will a full release be released"

I'm asking if at this stage they think it will ever get to a stable release. Yes they might need a crystal ball as you say, to predict the future, but I was just curious if there were any major barriers, or bridges they came across that needed crossing.

What makes me think they might not have a stable release is the fact they haven't even got a stable release for the galaxy s and that's been out much longer.

Granted it's different hardware.

Anywa it was simply a question, but I've noticed on this forum that some people are very defensive when people say something they don't like, or ask questions.
