O. Have been on nightly #9 all day and JUST NOTICED that when I rotate the phone nothing is auto rotating? I made sure it was checked in DISPLAY and all have always (still is) checked in CyanogenMOD settings display for ALL the rotations Zero, 90, 180, and 270 degrees. I rebooted didn't help, unchecked and rechecked didn't help, unchecked rebooted then after power up rechecked didn't help, rebooted again still no change. Just wondering if anyone else has seen this. If not I will be reinstalling #9 to see if it fixes it.

Unfortunately I need to let my phone charge up first as I have been using it all day and battery is really low. Now I am not sure if it JUST stopped rotating or IF it just stopped recently. Just hitting you all up to see, otherwise in an hour or so I will reflash #9. Thanks

PS. I also checked my launcher to be sure it was still correct and it is set to auto rotate.

EDIT: I JUST REFLASHED #9 WHILE IT WAS PLUGGED IN AND THIS FIXED IT.

Thanks I gotta check that out, just got back home after a long rainy day, my phone seemed to die off fairly fast, I just plugged it in and will check out the auto rotation issue and see if it's the same on both sides.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] drawde40599:
every time i get a rotation issue its right after superuser updates and a fresh flash usually fixes it and if not i uninstall su update and that fixes it, i had to unchecked auto update from market for superuser ..............
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] melbourne408:
I did actually notice this same exact thing, rehashed the nightly while it was plugged in and I'm seeing it fixed. My battery seems a little flustered and is giving me some heat aggression.

In the next nightly, the new led notifications are enabled and use a wake_lock, so the phone will not go into deep sleep if you have notifications turned on (it is a setting in the Device Settings as well as in CyanogenMod Settings). Therefore the default is off.

The led timeout (another setting in Device Settings) is set to default to always on like we have had it, but you can set a timeout for how long before you want LEDs to turn off.

MDNIe is now controllable via Device Settings as well.

I did a completely fresh install of nightly 9 and went to sleep with the phone charging at 83%. woke up and it was dead. when plugged in it will flash the battery charging animation and die. any attempt to get it into download mode fails with a red message "cant enter download mode battery too low". exchanging for a new one at att.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
:eek: damn... talk about sleep death :D

Crazy dude, but might as well while you have the window to return and exchange as i don't think anyone has had that problem.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] catzilla:
Why not try leaving it plugged in to charge for an hour or two and seeing what happens?

Also, no battery drain issues on #9 for me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
I think he did. He said he went to bed with it charging. Woke up it was dead. Unless he sleeps for less than 2hrs, that should have been plenty of time for the phone to charge- not drain. Something is wrong there

Looks like if u have "always on" set led backlights on till u toggle screen on and off then not working at all after that till reboot, and delays didn't work at all 4 me . I download update from rom manager and installed manualy like I always do .

+1 here. Kept trying to fix in the settings but a no go. The lights do seem to be working for notifications EXCEPT I am getting stuck with no softbuttkn control after checking the message, I cannot exit out by hitting the home or back button until I hit the power button on/off/on then the soft buttons start working.

Question on VoiceMail

I moved from an iPhone 3GS to the GS2. The iPhone had Visual Voicemail and it worked. I never thought about setting up VM on the GS2 (stock), as I thought it used the same voicemail box as the iPhone. Then I installed CM7 (nightly 7). When someone calls the phone, it never goes to VM. When I press and hold 1 on the keypad, I get a voice that says:

Welcome to AT&T Voicemail. We need more information to direct your call to the appropriate voicemail box.

It says if I have a vm box on that system, to press # then dial the mailbox number. I type my phone number, and it says that it doesn't have a box for that number. I have searched this thread, and all I've seen is someone saying to use Google Voice instead. Is this the only solution? Or can I use the AT&T system? If I can use AT&T, then do I have to call them up and tell them to setup my VM box? The visual voicemail apps out on Market seem to suck up a lot of battery. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] moustro:
I had the same issue coming from an iphone. You have to call att to have them switch your voicemail from visual to standard.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] CNLiberal:
This was my issue. I got on with AT&T Chat Tech Support and they created a VM box for me no problem. Thanks!

Doesn't Google voice handle the transition when you step through their wizard?

Not only does Google voice do visual voicemail but you can easily download mp3s of each message.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] atinm:
Yeah . . . turns out AT&T code is slightly different for LEDs than SGS2 - so I'll be putting up a new kernel soon that'll be in the next nightly (hopefully).

I just put on Nightly #9 early today. Battery drain is horrible. I also have an issue with charging now. Three hours on plug in and it gained 6%.. Also phone was very hot. I may have a defective battery as twice this week I got "Charging stopped until battery temp lowers"
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] sailador:
that is a bug with the newer google voice.... i think you have to use the older version
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] tmckenn2:
Yea nbd just got a new gs2. As long as no one else its having this issue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RockRatt:
Try wiping dalvich cache and reflash it. I had an issue with #9 on first install but after a second flash it was fixed. You can look a page back or so for the only thing I had a problem with auto rotation but like I said a reflash of the nightly fixed it. Also if your getting hot then an app or process is eating away at your phone keeping it active. Didn't have any heating issues charging or not. Check to see what is staying active on your phone.

As far as any battery drain I didn't have any for a whole days worth of use. Don't go to #10 yet though as Stink is gonna rework it. But #9 was/is really good for me other than having to reflash due to the auto rotation issue I had.

To anyone: what is the latest on NFC support with our SGS2 devices using CM7? Last I recall, there was mention of some libs and perhaps driver code that needed to be gleaned from, say, something like the new Nexus, and ported over to our phones to get it working... is this still the case?

Also, from what I can tell, the Skyrocket does not have NFC in it... another reason to hold on and continue enjoying my SGS2!

Neither do I have camera shutter sound (nightly #9). Did you find a solution to this?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cease:
I mentioned this in a previous post; I was on 8 and no shutter sound; 9 still no sound. Hopefully a fix is coming. It did work on nightly 4 if my memory serves me correctly.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] nickshertzer:
Same here (back on nightly 9 again). Tried toggling Settings > CM Settings > Sound > Mute Camera Shutter to no avail.

Searching around for a setting in the Camera app and found under menu > Advanced Options it lets you map the Shutter and Zoom to the physical buttons?! That was news to me! I had to set Search Shutter as well as Power shutter for some reason (or else power button kept just turning off the screen!). But volume keys for zoom in / out is just so damn intuitive!

For now, every time a take a picture, I just yell out "CLICK" :D

Flashed Nightly 11. Backlight timeout still not working properly. If set to 5, 10, or 15 seconds the lights do time out accordingly, but do not come back on until you lock and unlock the phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Harbinger1080:
I'm also encountering the same issue as before-- that eventually the softkeys become unresponsive until I restart the phone. I did a direct update for this, only wiping cache and dalvik though... looks like my LED settings from 10 are still there. I'm currently flashing after a full wipe and will report back.

Edit: Nope, they still stop working after a few minutes
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] atinm:
Stop working how? Don't light up or don't do anything? Don't light up again is something I would have fixed last night if I had time, but didn't get around to and will get sometime when I have time again. You can leave it to always on if you want them on.

VPN

Hello to a fellow Corey (Cory)!!!

I am using both a PPTP VPN VIA Windows Server 2008 and OpenVPN with my Tomato router. While the Windows solution has its kinks that I am still working out, the Tomato VPN solution seems to be much easier and OpenVPN has a great tutorial on how to set it up! Once your key and cert are set up Friedrich Schäuffelhut has an app that makes setup on Android painless.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Aqua1ung:
Did they fix this in #11?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Harbinger1080:
Sorry, they actually become completely unresponsive, don't provide haptic feedback, or otherwise function in any way. The timeout didn't work for me; I sent it to 5s, and they never turned off on their own, even after multiple restarts. The loss of functionality didn't seem to be tied to any one notification or time out setting.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] arcardinal:
My buttons work just fine. It's just the timeout that doesn't, but obviously isn't supposed to yet.

@Harbinger- You may want to try a factory reset and reflash.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] atinm:
Actually, the Nightly 11 "should" have everything working except lighting the buttons when you touch them again after they've timed out. At least, that's what is working for me and I spent a few hours on last night!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] atinm:
No - I'm sorry, I don't think anyone is even looking at this, let alone fixing it (I'm not even sure what the bug you're talking about is...). I mean camera shutter sound would not even be something I think about..

In a lot of times just flashing the nightly on top of the nightly (flashing it twice) can fix random issues. Just download the rom with rom manager, choose flash gapps, CHOOSE WIPE DALVICH CACHE ONLY, then let it flash it for you.

Truth be told, I actually did 3 factory resets with the same results. Then, I decided, "what the hell", and flashed back to stock and started from there. THAT actually appears to have worked. I've been going from nightly to nightly for days, even downgrading from time to time... I really just haven't been particularly responsible with my flashes. My fault.

Playlist Issue?

I'm on CM7 Nightly7 and I'm having an issue putting playlists on this phone. I use Ubuntu's Rhythmbox player for my media player. It has the ability to sync playlists to this phone. It worked fine under stock ROM. However, since moving to this CM7 ROM, the PLS files will sync to the phone (in the specified location). I can see them before I disconnect the USB. If I look in the file, it has the incorrect location for the music. It shows the location as:

///media/string_of_numbers_and_letters/media/audio/music/correct_folders

The string of numbers and letters is what Ubuntu sees as the "USB Memory Stick" name. Before the switch to CM7, it was showing just the media portion of the path. When I disconnect the phone, the PLS files are gone. I even tried saving them to a different location on the internal SD card and still they are gone when I go to look through Root Explorer. Has anyone else seen this issue? Thanks!

Jim

PS: I'm attaching my ".is_audio_player" file to this post so you can see what I have.

after reading all these posts about the backlit soft buttons, I realized that my softbuttons are always lit when the screen is on.

Running nightly 11-5-2011.

Is there a setting to control this? Or is there a fix in a new nightly?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] halfsoul:
Nightly 9 and previous had the capacitive buttons always on as you described. I'm downloading #12 to try out the new changes. #12 includes "Turn on touchkeys on touch if not set to always off" which I suspect includes the touchkey fixes Atinm mentioned.

edit: BTW, see atinm's original post introducing the behavior and settings change.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] switters1:
Ok. So I updated to the new nightly.

The backlight comes on when the screen comes on and it will turn off per the setting.

But the behavior I recall from cm7 on captivate is that the backlight would illuminate again if the soft keys are touched again. Is this how it should work? Or should the backlight come on only the first time the screen turns on ( how it works currently)?

I don't feel strongly either way, but I figure its worth asking
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] halfsoul:
I suspect you upgraded to Nightly #11 which should behave as you described. As I mentioned above, Nightly #12 includes "Turn on touchkeys on touch if not set to always off", which illuminates again when the buttons are touched. I tried it just now, it works. The only thing it does not do is turn on when the touchscreen is touched.

edit: This is so awesome, thanks Atinm!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] atinm:
Nightly 12 onwards should illuminate again when you touch the soft keys unless you have them set to always off.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] arcardinal:
@ Atinmm-Thanks for the quick work. Everything is working perfectly on #12.

Also, I hope you weren't offended by my last comment. I think it came off wrong. I just meant to say that everything on #11 was working as you had stated it would. I was just happy to have the option to have the lights on or off. I was not upset that the timeout function was not working properly. I actually prefer to have the lights off all the time. Again, sorry if my comment came off wrong, and thank you for all your hard work. You are the reason I have continued to use Samsung's phones.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] NiXXeD:
I have a clarification question on how this works a little. Does turning the LED notifications on not allow deep sleep *ever* or just while it's lighting up the LEDs because of a notification?

I could probably live with a little less deep sleep only when I have a notification, but I really love the battery life as-is currently. Yesterday I didn't touch my phone for over 9 hours (busy work day) and I had 97% battery left. Can't go wrong with that!

Thank you for your hard work atinm =)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
No.. only **active** notifications so once you turn off the lights/notification the device can enter deep sleep again.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dwaleke:
These gave me the fastest speeds as well. I either set them to these values or take them all out completely.

There are a lot of threads related to this and what those values mean. Mostly when people were trying to get the fastest 3G speeds. I can't find what hsxpa=3 (or 5) really mean. From what I have found 0, 1, and 2 are the only valid values although some people have had success with 3 and 5.

So before I flash any rom I look in the build prop for any of these settings and change them appropriately.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] tmckenn2:
Yes many of these values are set above the theoretical maximum but for son reason offer better data speeds. To edit the build prop just remove the old ones (or change their values) and add the new ones (I did it at the bottom but it doesn't matter)
