Hey Hieber,

please install Simplicity the following way:

- flash Stock JVT via ODIN

- flash Semaphore 1.82 via ODIN

- do factory reset via CWM

- flash Simplicity 1.5.1 via CWM

For me the battery life is very good - especially when screen is off, because Simplicity uses a screenstate scaling script (off = governor conservative / on = governor ondemand). But please remember that after flashing a new rom the battery needs some charge/discharge cycles to calibrate itself.

Bushido

PS: A thanks is always appreciated... ;-)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] LaurensJ:
Hi Hieber,

Battery life of this ROM is really the best I've ever experienced. I'm a heavy user as well and my phone works easily 48 hours. So flash it and see for yourself.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] :
But wouldn't that replace Semaphore again with 1.80?

That's not a problem, I'm still on 1.80, just wanted to mention it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] LaurensJ:
Use SGS Kernel Flasher so you can easily flash an updated kernel.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] d0ggy:
Hmm, I can't do much with this info. It's an unhandled exception. I could try logging it with AppDomain.UnhandledException, but I'll have to edit the code. I'll release a new one soon, or provide you with a modified one. I'll see what I can do ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Bushido76:
Thank you for your hint. You are right - the Simplicity 1.5.1 package comes with Semaphore 1.80. You can switch to 1.82 via the following two ways:

1) flash Semaphore 1.82 via ODIN after doing the other four steps

or

2) replace the kernel (zimage) in the Simplicity cwm-zip before flashing the cwm-zip

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] manjee:
Ok, thank you. I'll be happy to help you beta test the cooker if you think it could be useful. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] st3v3y_uk:
I use hullomail which is a voicemail app & to my surprise I've just realised that I'm no longer getting updates from the app which means I don't get notifications when someone leaves me a message!

Is there anyway to fix this?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] csoller:
if i want to disable and completely remove supercharger from a rom i just cooked, which files or folders should i delete from the .zip file? (it only causes me troubles)

i found related files in init.d and data folders
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hofinho:
yes, those are the files. it is one in init.d and 4 in /data.

local.prop in /data is also a supercharger dependency (takes care about oom groupings), so you should delete it also.

---------- Post added at 07:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:35 PM ----------

hm, never used that app but could it be provider related? you were the one who struggled very hard to get your simcard unlocked at the beginning also, arent you? ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] st3v3y_uk:
Wrong guy with the sim card issue. I used to work for Motorola, own my own Telecom company & have been providing businesses with mobile phones for almost 20 years.

So I'm up to speed on the non Modding side of telephony! ;-)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] deaconsx:
Hi Bushido, any new Thunderbolt integration into Simplicity from you?

TIA :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] LaurensJ:
Or - as i posted before - use SGS Kernel Flasher (available in the Market)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] csoller:
I said yesterday that I want to delete supercharger, because it only causes trouble, I was wrong.

I found out the real problem is that the rom I cooked has no autokill feature, it is completely missing.

My phone wouldnt kill an app even if I had 5 MB free ram, and if I dont clear it manually the phone is to hang up eventually.

Its crazy fast after ram clearing, but I open 3 apps, it fills up, and the story starts over.

When I cooked the rom I chose recommended as ram management

What am i doing wrong? I flashed another rom, but it was the same.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hofinho:
Can you please download the app "android system info" and tell me which low memory killer values it Shows for your phone!? Which kernel do you use?

Do you use any taskkiller (not recommended)?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] papcm:
Hi,

I'm using this rom and I have a issue that I don't know if is a rom problem. When I customize a contact ringtone, sometimes this ringtone don't ring, it rings with the default ringtone.

There are anyone with this problem?

Thank you.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hofinho:
Hehe yeah i confused your nick with an other guy, sorry for that. Does voicemail work manually then? (from settings menu)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] csoller:
I use semaphore 1.82bm, without semaphore manager tweaks, and I dont use any taskkiller. My low memory killer settings are pretty much non existent, when I open that tab it shown nothing.

Open this link to get a clue.

I also find theme flashing a bit weird, I flashed the stock android theme and only part of it seemed to go through. My notification bar is aosp android, but the dialler isnt...

I dont want to sound whiny, I like the rom and appreciate the work you put in it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hofinho:
I have never seen this being empty :D this is really strange. Did you try a full wipe? You could try to flash 1.5.1 without wipe first before. Keep in mind that 2.0 is still a beta
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Bushido76:
Hey csoller,

could you please apply the cwm-zip from the following post and try again:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=18789599&postcount=2581

Hofinho is right - this behaviour is really strange. ;)

Bushido
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] thundergust:
I have the same problem with the same kernel. There is no LMK setting at all. Once the memory is used up, the system hangs, and I have to reboot. I have tried to factory reset, but there is still no LMK setting. Seems like I have to flash 1.5.1 again.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kriEv:
does this work well on the i9000m? (Bell)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hofinho:
We haven't got any feedback about that so far, so i won't guarantee that. But as long as you use a kernel (does semaphore support it????) that supports the i9000m (copy the z-image into the zip folder before flashing it) i don't see a point why not. we didnt include bootloader or anything that could harm your phone if it doesn't so just go ahead and try ;)

On your own risk of course
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] csoller:
I flashed it and this happened.

Problem seems to be solved.

I did a wipe after flashing, could that be the cause?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Bushido76:
It seems that you created a very strange combination of config-files on your phone. The phone wasn't able to use the kernel default values. ;) Maybe the CWM-wipe was responsible for it. You could do another wipe and tell us... :D

But I'm glad that the cwm-upgrade helped in your case. ASI shows exactly the values which come with my cwm-zip.

Bushido
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] csoller:
you should also flash the zip provided, its the cure for now

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] grieflar:
Hey!

Yep, I went through these steps. Darky works oddly enough :)

Gonna give it a try again, Simplicity is way better when working!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] st3v3y_uk:
No worries :)

Hullomail is a visual voicemail app. I am not getting push notifications anymore but if I open the app & cluck refresh then the missed calls & messages appear.

I've just uninstalled the app & reinstalled it just to try that but if it doesn't work then I can set it to pull messages instead of push. Just thought I'd ask here before I did that.

Edit: This was in reply to hofinfo.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] st3v3y_uk:
Reply is above.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] herc2k:
anyone tried the tv out cable? does it work?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] deadey3:
sorry to be rude devs...

is there going to be "general update" for this rom?

cheers
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hofinho:
what do you mean by "general update"? as long as sammy releases updates for sgs, simplicity will always be updated to the latest international xx.. base, which is atm jvt.

we feel that the current set-up is very convenient and stable so we dont see a point in adding more stuff to the current base that probably results in bugs.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kriEv:
got ths installed on my i9000m.

i flashed the canadian modem and everything is fine.

Only thing that is not working is the camera. it keeps FCing.. any ideas?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] d0ggy:
Did you install SGS2 Camera? Then you have to delete Camera.odex from /system/app
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Nafiganado:
Stopped recognizing by USB

Hi all,

i've got strange problem. Running happily Simplicity 1.5.1 and - BOOM! -

All of sudden, in some moment my device has stopped being recognized as USB device :(

I've tried other comp, other cable, reinstalling driver, switching USB connection type, turning debugging mode on and off, switching between PDA USB and Modem USB mode via service code. NOTHING! It tells "Unknown device" in USB device list...

Also device is not recognized now when I enter download mode and run ODIN...

Please, help! I don't have idea what else I can try without just resetting and reinstalling OS... :( And even not sure this would assist!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] d0ggy:
I have no clue except for your PC drivers being messed up.

Could you please check this forum posts anwser out? http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...-devices/e66efb51-00e9-46db-9d1d-a6206fc806fc

Also, does it work on other PCs?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DeadSOL:
Has development for this ROM stopped? Sad.

Shouldn't you update the kernel? Semaphore 1.9.0 is out and if there are any clashes with this ROM, they should be fixed.

Sometimes, my ROM just freezes when I'm doing a lot of things. Multi-tasking still isn't up to its standards. Even when I'm not doing much (listening to music and sending messages), the ROM freezes.

I'm pretty sure there are a few bugs that could be tweaked out. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] LaurensJ:
See this quote So I don't think development has stopped for Simplicity!

Cheers
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DeadSOL:
Ah, no. I did read that and that is why I didn't address any Samsung related issues. I talked about the Semaphore Kernel being updated and I talked about multi-tasking.

You see, multi-tasking and speed can be tweaked! Take a look at the Thunderbolt script! Look at the Galaxian kernel! Look at Semaphore! They're still being constantly updated.

Now, I know that the developers of this ROM have implemented their own tweaks with the Supercharger script. I know it can be improved a bit more. I have a few problems with my ROM;

1) Completely horrible lags that just slow everything down (randomly)

2) The ROM freezes sometimes

3) Boot times are horribly slow! The ROM takes forever to start up and then it takes a REALLY long time to load all the applications.

4) Media scanning (ugh). Constant media scanning! It takes AGES for the phone to scan everything and it does it TWICE!!! Why does it do that?

I do have a lot of games installed but there aren't a lot of background applications running. I always delete apps that I don't use/delete. I don't have any bloatware. I use SD Maid to keep the storage clean. All semaphore scripts are UN-ticked.

I just believe that this ROM has so much potential. I LOVED Simplicity 0.33. Multi-tasking was heavenly. So, I'm hoping for a little bit of improvement. Other than that, it's hard to let go of the ROM. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] LaurensJ:
OK, that clarifies a lot.

I also experience issues 1,2 and 4 quite often (aaaaagh that media scanning!! Terrible) On the other hand I don't have the Thunderbolt script installed and have all tickboxes in the Semaphore app un-ticked.

So from that point of view I hope the devs will develop this great ROM even further.

Cheers
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DeadSOL:
Haha. Yeah, I'm just hoping that they continue to support this great ROM that they have developed! :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pikachu01:
Then maybe you should try ThunderBolt! :P
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] moegrave:
Dear DeadSOL,

The devs of this roms have said many times that with samsung updates, there will be Simplicity udpdates.

I want to just express my opinion at the current moment. Thunderbolt script, hell yea it rules, buut there are parts of it integrated already in Simplicity, and yes, of course it is updated, because there is always room to get better.

On the other hand Galaxian and Semaphore are great, but I really don't understand you. Galaxian constantly updated, ahahahah, have you been to that thread in past few months. Galaxian kernel is only updated because it is used in Supersonic rom and that's all. Semaphore on the other had is a sweet need kernel [aaaand integrated perfectly into Simplicty] and flashable in any way [odin/ kernel flasher] without doing anything to the rom.

I will tell you this, I have tried Simplicity 1.5.1 and 2.0 [cooked] with 5 custom kernels now, after the last rom cooker, and nothing and I mean nothing can beat Semaphore for this ROM. Galaxian in latest versions is only good for stock roms, or roms that don't use LMK or ReadAhead tweaks in them.

I never had your issues from 1 to 4 with Simplicity and Semaphore together, and I mean NEVER. So my advice. do a wipe, re-install Simplicity, update kernel to 1.9 and enjoy smooth, fast and stable experience.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] d0ggy:
We satisfy your demand ;)

Download: http://www.multiupload.com/3L9D99A971

Old versions will update automaticly at start up

Note: Simplicity 1.6 will be made for the cooker in a few days.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DeadSOL:
Oh. My. God!!!!!!!!!!

Dude, I could kiss you right now!!! XD

Lemme go try this. It looks lovely!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you so much for continuing development on an amazing ROM!!!!!! :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] chillibanana:
Is 1.6 no wipe - just drop onto sd card and update?

I'm currently on 1.5.1 and semaphore 1.8.0?

Thanks again for an awesome ROM
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DeadSOL:
Dear moegrave,

I understand what you are saying and I respect your opinion. Let me just update Simplicity. How's that? :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] d0ggy:
No problem ;) It's a pleasure, especially with such reactions :D

It's no wipe, so you can just update.

If you would like to perform a wipe, you can use the wipe data partition function in recovery ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jocke_lulle:
Hi

Just finsihed downloading 1.6=)

What about using tweaks in semaphore app together with this rom? Will it work or will some of the tweaks collide with settings in the rom?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DeadSOL:
Just a minor point;

The ICS music player has no equalizer, there are no buttons in the notification menu to pause music, there are no volume controls in the app itself, and it does not integrate itself with the lockscreen.

Personally, I LOVE the interface but I would also like to know if I can get the stock music player back. :)

Maybe with the cooker or nitrality?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] d0ggy:
You can play with the Semaphore app, but most will override the ROMs values. You can test them out, and if you don't like them, reset them to default (which will use the ROMs values again).

We recommend to only use the app to enable overclocking, though.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] d0ggy:
Yeah, that's the drawback :(

You can install the stock music player by using the cooker (Apps ==> check Music Player ==> Add to add-on).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] abidpioneer:
Hi..... Thanks for your ROM.....Can we have RTL patch for Arabic.....Many Thanks....
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] buk_grudziadz:
No Root

I have no root after flashing the new 1.6 version.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jocke_lulle:
Install superuser from market.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] buk_grudziadz:
That will be a problem because there's no market installed either :-(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cabessius:
Just installed this rom and Market is here. Superuser is not. Any obvious reason to not include Superuser out of the box?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] d0ggy:
Semaphore v1.9.0 dropped the superuser application (I didn't notice)... It still has superuser permissions, so you can just install it from the Market.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] parhelion69:
Reporting an error of the cooker (since it told me to :P ), it says that it couldn't call Dispose(), and then another error (it's in spanish but translated would be:), "error at creating the window identifier"

And when I click "download latest simplicity" it shows an error saying that it couldn't grab the download link. Then an error saying that the URI is empty.

The app force closes on both cases
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cabessius:
Ok, everything seems fine, but when I try to set a notification tone, the only option I get is "silence". Why?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] d0ggy:
You can delete /system/media/.nomedia and reboot. Then it will show more tones.

I disabled the media scan for /system/media to improve the media scanning when booting up.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kavou:
Very nice rom my friend. But I have a problem. I had an other rom and I flashed yours on top. Since then I don't have ringtones. Why?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kavou:
Ok ok with yours last post I found everything.

Thank's again.

Wifi doesn't work for me...

When I try to enable it, it says Error
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] d0ggy:
Did you come from another JVT ROM? Have you ever experienced similar problems on stock JVT?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] borjaag:
No, I come from JTV stock and I've never had these problems...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] d0ggy:
Could you try reinstalling the kernel (Semaphore, or whichever you want to use) by using either SGS kernel flasher (Market), or Odin (PC)?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cabessius:
Really strange, I flashed clean stock JVT before this rom and wifi is ok.

BTW, I´m trying to buy an app and when I click on the price I get an error message. Does this happen only to me?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] borjaag:
I tried to reflash semaphore... but the same problem, I think it's a kernel problem, so I'm gonna try other kernel, but I love Semaphore :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] d0ggy:
Works fine for me. Is your Google account synchronized?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cabessius:
Yes, it is.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] d0ggy:
Wild guess: try going to the Application list (select all), go to the Market and click "Remove data".
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cabessius:
No way, anyway I go to sleep now, thx for your patience and maybe tomorrow I find a solution. Cheers
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DrAnGeR:
When i installed the rom my market disappeared and my internet connection is lost. i searched for an apn settings nothing there so i guess something is going wrong...

EDIT: Rebooted and youtube lost too ...

EDIT2: Strange thing i just put apn settings got 3G on and vualla Market appeared

EDIT3: Mobile Tracker not working
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rizzy123:
do we need to do anything to activate the supercharger or is it automatically activated once you install this rom?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] iNeri:
Its activated by default.;) you dont need to fo anything.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] parhelion69:
I believe that putting the ICS music app on the newest simplicity isn't the best option right now, I mean it's very nice looking but it's hardly functional, it has a few key elements missing:

-no controls on the notification bar

-no controls on the lockscreen

-no volume controls

-no equalizer

-it uses much more battery than the stock player (I could easily tell since I listen to music a lot on my way to work and i know how much battery it uses, ICS one uses at least 5x more battery, I guess it doesn't use sound hardware accel)

I would use the cooker to get the stock music app, but it crashes on me everytime I try to use it ( I just reported it on the previous page but got no response)

It should be an optional download since it's not ready yet...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] LaurensJ:
Can I install Thunderbolt on this ROM by following pikachu01 install instructions in his thread?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DeadSOL:
Simplicity 1.60 has been working perfectly. The annoying media scanning has been reduced. No lags or freezes so far! :)

I shall report on multi-tasking in a while. :D

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] SolGarlic:
No ringtone or notification sounds

I installed the latest 1.6, with kernel 1.9, over a stock odexed JVT based rom, wiping completely (factory reset, delete cache, and format SYSTEM).

However, I do not have any available ringtones, and only one notification sound (facebook pop).

I created an addon pack with additional sounds and installed successfuly, but still no additional ringtones in the "sound settings". Only "no sound" available.

I checked system\media, and all sounds are there, in the correct folders, and working...

Anyone with the same problem? How can I fix this?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] grieflar:
Delete the .nomedia file in that folder, that should do it.

How to fix the pesky Market bug? I'm not able to download a bunch of my regular apps: "Your device is not compatible with this item"

Apps not compatible: Estrong File Explorer, Astro File Manager, Mitt Telia (Swedish App), Chainfire3D, IMDB and so on and on :/

Something went wrong with build.prop?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] silvergold:
Have you changed the DPI ?

If you did then you need to reset the DPI to 240 and clear data from Market and Google Framework in the Apps menu then restart the fone and it should work.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] grieflar:
That I have truly done! How stupid of me to accuse the ROM :)

Thanks for the hint!

Edit: Resetting DPI to 240 was sufficient.

Edit2: For some apps ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] yken:
Is not this rom 1.6 already rooted?

I installed but when i trey things it says its not rooted.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jnr21:
Install superuser from market.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] silvergold:
Just Clear Cache AND Data for "Google Services Framework" and "Market" from the Applications menu and then reboot (just keep it at 240DPI). If this did not fix it then repeat the process and change regional settings to something else (Eg from English-US to English-UK) and then reboot. After you install the programs you want you can safely change the regional settings back and also the DPI but if you want to update them you will have to repeat the process. This is because of the Market app which detects the DPI of the phone. Good Luck
