[Galaxy S II Android Development] 89luca89:

[Galaxy S II Android Development] TimmehPS3:
Just a quick question, will you add EDT tweaks via the OTA app? That would be awesome!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] zidane:
Luca any fix for the tw email app that keeps crashing?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] 89luca89:
I'm waiting response from the EDT creator for indications on where EDT Starts!

OBV Anyone that knows well where StatusBarPolicy.smali code is modified is Accepted! xD

Didnt see that...

Can you send me the logcat?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] zidane:
Sure i'll do that as soon as I get home.

I've never done a logcat, how can I make one?

Thanks again
[Galaxy S II Android Development] 89luca89:
Use aLogcat from market or go in TerminalEmulator and type

su
logcat > /sdcard/log.txt

when typed press HOME (not close!) and make the FC of the app...

Then immediately take the log.txt in the Sdcard and send it to me :D

How many hours has the phone been up? Also how much screentime do you have?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Thedonk13:
LOVE this rom....a former EVO user, i hated sense, i really hate TW....i was always running Senseless Roms (same thing has a TWless rom)...EVERYTHING works and I get an AOSP experience...

THANK YOU again...

I do have ONE problem with the updater, and yes I searched and read everything...been bugging me for about an hour now....i can not get the updater to update its extras servers...i keep getting an error

java.net.unkownhostexception: dl.dropbox.com

also, i rebooted my phone 3 times or so, I am assuming the O/C Daemon scripts are automatic and are performed in the background....no setcpu or antyhing on my phone....
[Galaxy S II Android Development] 89luca89:
Updater is not related to OC Daemon! :D

So try this:

Wipe the data of the OTA App (theGMUpdater if you search it) Via settings>Manage applications

then go again the GMUpdater, Extra settings and update again featured servers! :D

Should work!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Thedonk13:
Did it, same error.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] 89luca89:
That seems very strange I have just now wiped data of the app, re updated the servers and worked flawlessy...

Check maybe to do again the procedure of wiping data of the app and try update via wifi maybe...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Thedonk13:
OK, I wiped the data, restarted phone prior to opening the updater and BAM, default extras server popped up. Thank you for helping out!!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] TheMatrix2000:
Top !!

Just installed v0.5 and tested it for 1 day now and i must say. I don't like it !!!

Everything is working, had still no FC's, No hangs or reboots, no BUG found yet.

Could you please ad some BUGS. It's a little boring when it works well. I have nothing to do anymore. I even can't get the battery empty !!!

No just kidding. I never had such a good ROM on my phone. i have installed 474 Programs and 9 Homescreens with Go Launcher with many widgets and my Phone is still much faster and drains the battery much slower than the Stock Samsung Rom with nothing installed at all.

Sell it to Samsung and you would make a lot people happy and you will become a millionaire.

Love it ;););)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] zidane:
i got alogcat and you can see the logcat in the attached file.

i hope i did it right and you can see when/why i get the FC

thanks a lot!

Some bugs and questions

I don't know if you prefer all questions in a single post or a separate post for each. Please let me know for future posts.

I am absolutely loving this rom, running 0.5, but noticed a few minor problems and questions...

1. I can not get BLN to work. Tried both the BLN app as well as blinky and they both see that BLN is enabled but neither can turn on the light.

2. The CWM Manager has vanished when I installed this rom. Is this compatible with CWM Manager or Rom Manager? Rom Manager can't do backups nor restores because of a whole-file error. I can probably put CWM Manager back by reflashing the kernel but I am afraid that doing so may trash some of the functionality of the ginger rom?

3. I am running the jKay deluxe V11 KI4. it is working great however, I am wondering if there may be future issues as I get OTA updates for Ginger?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] diegoms89:
MMS force close

Lucas, did you post another MMS on the OTA source? 'cause yesterday, when I tryed installing, it seemed to be the same as 0.4b, so it didn't worked =/

Sorry for insisting on this, that's 'cause I really like to use the SMS popup...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] _gege:
Video bug

I can post now ;-)

I was on 0.3 and was so happy with it I just waited for the next stable version.

But the OTA sound so cool I jumped on 0.5 immediately, while my chicken self usually let others discover the first issues before I decide to flash something.

Already send you a logfile for the bug I have with the video app, just wanted to give a more detailed step by step instruction about what happen and when.

If video is working nice for others on 0.5, I'll dig further in my wipe/install process, but if I'm not the only one, I'll wait like a good boy for the next fix ;-)

copy "big_buck_bunny_480p_surround.avi" on internal sd card

Removed SD card

Boot in recovery

Wipe data/factory reset

Wipe Dalvik cache

Install zip from SD card : TheGingerMOD_v0.5_update.zip

Reboot

Go through new user screens, bypass google account setting

Wait for media scanning to complete

Shutdown

Power on

Wait for media scanning to complete

go in file manager

click on big_buck_bunny file : it launch, video ok

click on Back button : back on file manager

click on big_buck_bunny file again : it launch, video frozen

click on Back button : nothing then message:

"Activity Movies (in application Gallery) is not responding"

Click on Force close button, back on home screen

Open file manager again

click on big_buck_bunny file : it launch, blanck screen, but sound works

click on Back button : back to file manager

click on big_buck_bunny file : nothing

click on Back button : nothing then message:

"Activity Movies (in application Gallery) is not responding"​

I did also tried with the samsung video player, the samsung gallery, and moboplayer. Moboplayer seems fine in software mode, anything else gives me the same issues.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] prosumerhacks:
i've noticed some issues while playing video... can u try MX video player...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] _gege:
video bug

Same thing for MX player : works fine in software mode, hang with hardware mode.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jankhner:
May i add that i didn't have these problems with 0.4b.

thanks if you have time to check these bugs. But im already very happy with 0.4b so there is no rush with these problems, i can use the older version also.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] 89luca89:
Tomorrow or later will adress all the logs you sent me :D

Today I have an exham xD So I'll be little busy xD (just a little xD xD)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] maninwales:
Bug maybe??

Hi, i have searched the forums and cannot find an answer. I download 0.5, wiped data/cache dalvik and installed from zip through cwm. He phone reboots and i get an icon in the notification bar which says media scanning.......usb storage, this stays there and i cannot use my gallery, music or camera????

Please has someone got a solution as i like the look of this rom
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jankhner:
Yes, first things first! Good luck with your exam!

---------- Post added at 08:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:37 AM ----------

I didn't have that problem. Not sure if neccessary but i also wipe system always before new install (DATA, CACHE, SYSTEM and DALVIK CACHE). I'd try to do a wipe again since no one else has reported this problem...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] maninwales:
Thanks but i already did that,wiped data, data cache and dalvik, but still the problem is there....???
[Galaxy S II Android Development] TimmehPS3:
Hey man! How'd your exams go? I hope they went good... I have a problem, when I try to sync my contacts to Google I get force closes like a boss.... It's the com.android.acore process that fails... I attached the logcat file. I also have some screenshots, if you need them let me know...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ramsheart:
Flash tw-calendars via cwm. Clear data for contact n calendar from manage applications. Then re-sync.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] TimmehPS3:
Gonna test this when I'm home this afternoon, thnx man :D Preparing for class now... No idea what I'm going to do...... and I'm the teacher xD
[Galaxy S II Android Development] 1pudding1:
noob question sorry. I'm upgrading from lightning ROM. Have put the.zip on an external sd card, however when I boot into cwm and try to install from sd card and browse to external_sd, it says no files found. Is it ok to put the file on the internal sd card to load the ROM? And wouldn't wiping data/factory reset delete it all before I get the chance to install it? Sorry for noob questions, only used Odin up until now.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jayerfernandes:
Put it in the INTERNAL sd card, boot into recovery, install zip and it will be mentioned.

Wiping Cache and Data prior to installation does not delete it. Youll just lose all your apps and phone data like settings and contacts. So makes sure you use titanium to backup apps, save your contacts etc and make a nandroid backup of your current ROM before flashing.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] TimmehPS3:
Works like a charm again :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] aalupatti:
Lucas hope ur Exam went well.

Now the other news - official KI3 is out.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] lfcorullon:
The Samsung Video and Photo editors don't start download.

An error appears and te Updater do nothing.

Whats wrong?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] aalupatti:
How do i check the camera firmware ?

The usscode are not working .

Reason for asking : the new SIEG03 camera firmware is said to produce good pics and good video .
[Galaxy S II Android Development] droidphile:
Luca, hope your exam went well :)

After playing a video in tw video player, pressing back button freezes everything. Not fc, but freeze. Got to long press home, launch task manager and kill the app to recover. The video is a full HD captured with gs2 cam while on stock ROM. Any help...

Also, any solution for volume control freezing in settings.

(log cat exceeds txt size limits, so please rename it to log.txt :D)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] diegoms89:
I don't know if its just me, but i'm having a bunch of problems... from going 0,4b-0,5...

First of all, installed mms from samsung, messages force close when trying to open > formated and started using sms AOSP

Second, my go weather widget and app stopped working, i cant open the weather options, or even add a city, nothing of this happened on 0.4. Besides that, 2 times i opened camera app, it was all black, tryied taking a picture, no worryies... but i just couldt see what i was taking picture before I did... Another thing i noticed, titanium backup was strange, when i run batch operation, to restore apps and data (not system), i couldnt ignore one of the installs, 'cause it would crash... had to choose before running the batch operation, or just install them all...

Third time, i just did everything again, even wiped factory, and installed 0.5 for the third time... the problem with titanium backup and go weather persist, but i changed my widgets, installed jkay, installed clock/video/screen shot service from samsung, and everything was normal... went to sleep after a full charge and calibration after, for 3 hours, every connection closed, no apps running, when i went to use the phone, 15% percent gone... saw battery usage, it just listed 2 or 3 apps that i used before sleep for 3 seconds, no android process or phone idle there to justify this...

Man, i really like you room, and in the 5 edition looked even better, but i think its time to go back to 0.4b for me...

Hey I restored asphalt 6 and its not working ...was in MIUI

usb connexion

Using o.3 and 0.5, can't connect to my windows7 PC under usb.

tried with and without USB debugging.

In the standard way, parameters/wireless/Usb tools, when I connect the cable, instead of seeing the droid and the message to mount the card, I get back to the initial button asking to click to connect, and on the windows 7 side, I have a message about failed driver initialization.

Sometime manage to get the droid and to press the button for mounting, the sdcards display in my computer, but can't access them, the appears as empty.

But it works with a netbook under windows XP.

Reflashing stock rom, usb work, so it's not my window7 config, my cable or connectors.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] diegoms89:
Unconnected: Go to applications > development > usb debug > uncheck than check the box again... it should fix your problem
[Galaxy S II Android Development] diegoms89:
Got the same issue...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] _gege:
It doesn't, and as I said in my message, already tested both usb debugging and non usb debbuging ways.

Just found out when I manage to see the droid asking me to connect : it's just after I successfully connetc on the winXP netbook. but it's doesn't help more, as even if I see the sdcard on the PC, I can't access them.

Just tested on a third PC (yes, we have a collection ;-), using the same Windows 7 32bit version, and it works just nice.

The main difference is that my main computer, the one where it doesn't work, is the one where I installed kies to have the SG2 drivers for Odin.

I did test unstalling samsung drivers, reinstalling them etc... nearly all config possible, with no success.

I suspect the phone don't send back to windows the right usb device informations, and my machine use the wrong set of drivers for usb mass storage mode.

But because usb connexion work with the same computer, same phone, same cable when I flash back the stock rom, I still think there is a issue somewhere.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] diegoms89:
sorry, didn't see...

'cause the same hapenned to me, after the procedure i told ya, i solved...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Dark Emotion:
89luca89, can you please fix the video playback problem...? :(
[Galaxy S II Android Development] aalupatti:
I got the same issue. I will quickpic and still have the freezing issue
[Galaxy S II Android Development] 89luca89:
I see the games and video problem is the same pratically!

I will look on it tomorrow also because I start working on 2.3.5 as it becomed official!!

When ready I'll tell you and simply will have to open the OTA app and refresh to have it :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] diegoms89:
any idea about the samsung MMS and go weather compatibility??

I'm gonna wait for your 2.3.5 =D

thanks luca, did fine at tests?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] 89luca89:
Sadly nope :-(

First I want to adress video iussue it seems more important to me, then the TW Mms and then the gweather

BTW Send me the logcat of GoWeather not working so I can help!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] lfcorullon:
Same video issue here...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] 89luca89:
REFRESH THE UPDATER!! :D

HOTFIX Released!!

FIX FOR:

Video

Games

GoWeater

Also contains a possible fix for MMS.apk, Test it ! Does not FC to me, but worth another view so I cannot promise will fix it!!

If you do not want to use updater:

[Galaxy S II Android Development] lfcorullon:
Hey, Luca, attached you'll find the apks that I talked about.

That would be great if you can fix the issue.

Thanks!

And thanks for the new 0.5 update!

There is no more issues with video player!

"This man and his work are great!!!"
[Galaxy S II Android Development] lfcorullon:
Another issue:

Now, when I enter in window to choose notification sound for sms, or in the sound options in settings, I have some duplicate sounds... Anybody else?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] joshua_h:
is there anyway to disable or fix the problem with noise reduction when on call?

people always complain they can not hear me.. when i switch it off.. it works
[Galaxy S II Android Development] zidane:
i've tried the MMS, i still get FC.

Since you cannot fix this, do you mind posting the AOSP MMS app in your updater?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] cwestpha:
but now 2.3.6 is out for Nexus devices. Dont you just love how there seems to be a one month release schedule with OEMs being one release behind even that.

As a side note I am having some strange behavior from the update app, superuser, and clockwork recovery. half of the time I try to apply an update from inside of your app superuser denies it half of the time even though superuser is set to always allow root access to the updater.

Also twice now I have had to manually go into clockwork recovery to apply an update because the update failed to apply with the screen disappearing to fast to see why.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nikzDHD:
OEMs need to customise the Google incremental hence delays in releases and network carriers and such.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nighty:
i have only ONE Problem.... :D

without the Stock Samsung E-Mail Client (TW_Email.zip), i cant sync with the Exchange 2010 SP1 Servers.

when i install the TW_Email.zip then crashes the TW_Email.zip and i must reflash the ROM.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] zidane:
Same problem here.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jankhner:
i don't know but i know that it doesn't help if you repeat your quoestion on every page. it just annoys other users :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] forelli:
android 2.3.7 from source - AOSP for Samsung Galaxy S2 by AdamG is here.

f.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] diegoms89:
Video player and go weather ok, no idea about the MMS, cause if this doesn't work, I'' loose sms ;/

Could you put AOSP? So we can test ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mariotme:
hey guys. ive been watching the thread closely lately and was wondering after the latest OTA update can someone point out whats the bugs or issues that are still present in the ROM?

Edit:

is it hard to implement JKay's lock screen mod?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jayerfernandes:
Hey. As far as what I've read, Rom Manager support requires a kernel that supports CWM. I remember that the Ninphetamine kernel does this. Why then, can I not use ROM Manager with Ginger?? It makes handling and naming recoveries a little easier.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] 89luca89:
Repeating yourself 23123 times does not help...when I read I relply!!

BTW Will be in next version as an option, for now go in the apposite thread and see if they can make one for KI4!

Today I was so busy for study and for the v0.6 KI3!

Its almost done! The rom itself need only 3\4 mods to be ported, and then I start to upgrade the extras!

about mms.apk, just extract it from the main rom, and use root explorer to restore it! :D

jKay lock is in the Extra section of the OTA updater! :D

The app is not in bundle with the rom and the kernel, but you can simply search for it and install...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sahidmiah:
can some one please tell me if this gingermod XWK14 rom has BLN SUPPORT and is it rooted .any bugs any fc .thanks

---------- Post added at 11:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:03 PM ----------

someone please correct me .smaller ROM (207mb ) means using less ram then stock rom. thanks

---------- Post added at 11:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:08 PM ----------

also Does XWK14 HAS OVERSCROLL GLOW ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] 89luca89:
use edit not post one after one!

Just read, overscroll is glow, BLN support is via patch... its a custom rom so its obviously rooted, and have still a little bug with an extra package installing TouchWiz sms and email not working

but try to read!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] shadowcaster31:
not sure if anyone is having this problem.

I'm unable to use static ip (and subsequently dns) when using wifi.

The wifi ip does not reflect the one i entered in static ip.

Btw, I'm using gingermod 0.4b. Not sure if this still happens in 0.5 though. This problem did not happen when i was using 0.3
[Galaxy S II Android Development] cwestpha:
No they dont need to customize the experience for an entire month. They CHOSE to delay a month so they can add garbage like touchwiz, Blur, Sense, and UX. Then we all know the many month delays that come from major updates. If they wanted to release just Android with a few minor customizations (additional hardware, accelerated apps, ocasional bundled applications, and minor UI tweaks like branding) they could make the changes in a day or two, and do validation over another two to three days.

If they didn't try to overly complicate their ROMs and experiences they could create a compelling end user experience with a streamlined update path. Just look at the Nexus One and Nexus S getting updates within a week of each-other even though 2.3.6 was natively developed (that is the testing target device) for the S and not the One. Google targets the basic Android platform; then they have different repositories for their gapps, customizations, and additional hardware support. They target and develop for the latest Nexus as a test device. They then compile and validate for that device and when that device is good and ready they then start moving back in time. It takes them days to take the minor release and in the month range for major. Google is smart enough to not segment the Nexus line artificially and have the staff on hand to address any issues for each device that arise durring code merging and validation.

Thanks, but thats not what I am looking for. True AOSP still has issues with it, mostly with some hardware drivers *caugh*audio*caugh* not being open source causing issues to arise. Until everything hardware wise is reverse engineered with solid open drivers I am going to stay away from these. Besides, do they have the lovely update app or integration with the native Android updater like GingerMOD has for the former? I have to have my BT headset and A2DP working along with some other issues that arise. Right now its just better to use GingerMOD's approach and take the "finished" Samsung product and strip it back to what you need. You may still be dealing with these OEMs seeming inability to understand best software development practices, but at least you have the driver code tweaked for what your building against further upstream.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jayerfernandes:
Hi luca. I did try that, (in fact as soon as I flashed Ginger, so that I could make a backup). When I choose to make a backup of the current ROM from ROM Manager, I get booted into CWM recovery and I get the following error message

"E: failed to verify whole file signature

E: signature verification failed"

I dont know how to go about it, and I doubt that I can make a logcat either???
