Another Cog feature I'd like to see and try out is SIP over wifi and 3G. It'd be cool to make calls over wifi at home, where my signal is next to zilch.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gtg465x:
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure you have to sign up with a SIP service provider and pay a monthly fee for that. It's not like you could just start making calls over wifi if I were to enable the functionality. You realize this right? Also, I don't pay for SIP service so adding the functionality could be troublesome with no way for me to test.

#2: Lockscreen toggle icon in notification bar

#3: ScreenTimout toggle icon in notification bar

#4: Digital neon blue battery meter in notification bar

#5: Remove or hide the clock in notification bar.

And anything else exciting you can think of. :)

I have run into 2 different issues after flashing, the first time I flashed it the GPS was not locking it took almost 30 min to lock with a 3300 meters accuracy, everything else was working, the second time the Wifi signal was really weak, I had the phone next to the router and still it only got 2 bars at max.

also it seems that the phone is not showing the strength signal when I go into *#*#4636#*#* signal strength shows as 0dBm, but the bars are working fine.

Awesome battery life on this ROM. I noticed a huge difference on 1.0.4 from 1.0.3. I'm overclocked to 1.6Ghz but as you can see, it rarely gets up there with the governor set to on demand.

No force closes or crashes. Everything runs smooth and stable. I've been on it since 1.0.1 and just flashed updates all the way up to 1.0.4 with no problems at all.

I liked your Infused ROM, and this one even better. BIG thanks to you and Entropy for all your work.

---------- Post added at 07:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:34 AM ----------

I have this weird situation where my battery level will actually spike up after even I have unplugged my phone. This spike usually occurs 30mins to 1 hr after I unplugged it. Is there some sort of delay in the battery update? This doesn't happen all the time. Most other times, when I plug the phone in, the graph immediately starts to move upward gradually. In this case, as you can see by the pic, the battery graphs continue to show drainage even after I plug in the phone. No big deal, just curious.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Arcano30:

Sometimes out in the sun its hard to read a small percentage number encased in an icon. Id like to see just the percentage and no icon for a clearer/faster look at the battery.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Misterjunky:
Battery Life

There is so much talk in these forums here about battery life so after a lot of

thought I had an idea to investigate how much the externel sdcard drains the

battery in our phones.

After an hour of searching I found many very technical information about this

but none which were specific enough to give me an idea of exactly how much

the external sdcard really drains the battery.

All along I knew that just by simply plugging in an external sdcard into the

phone or a computer the power consumption increases.

(even if the phone's screen times-out.)

Then I came accross an article which was specific enough about this topic and

which even I could understand. :)

So here is the bottom line:

When we plug a flash drive into the computer and not even access the flash drive

it still consumes a certain amount of milliamps as long as it remains plugged in

and the computer is powered on.

All external micro sdcards or any other kinds of sdcards just like any external

hard drives plugged into the computer use power and drain the battery, in cell

phones even if the phone is in stand-by mode or sleep mode.

In standby mode the micro sdcard drains the battery anywhere from 0.3mA to

0.6mA depending on the speed, brand, and quality of the sdcard.

The amount of battery drain increases more than 20 times while the sdcard is

being addressed and accessed to read or write.

If we multiply 0.6mA times 24 hours the amount of battery drain is 14.4mA

which means that if we do nothing at all with the phone it will drain an

additional 14.4mA every 24 hours just by having the micro sdcard plugged

into the phone.

So if our battery has a full charge of 1650mA you can see that the amount of

drain is not a lot but if we want to conserve the most battery life possible

then even a 14.4mA drain every 24 hours might be of concern to some of us.

What do YOU think?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] tboooe:
I agree the battery % is hard to read. How about making the % vertical instead? This should allow for a bigger font.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Pirateghost:
or you guys could go over to UOT kitchen and customize it any way you want??
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] :
There isnt an option to remove the icon completely and just have the percentage. For that you will need to update SystemUI.apk for it, add TSMParts.apk to system/app and add pointer to TSMParts in settings.apk... but Im not great at doing that.

GTG, I thought that adding or modifying any icons into our roms was your job! :)

(I am sure glad that I am not a developer, I would not have enough patience to modify 100 icons.)​
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Pirateghost:
or you could use the icon set that is just the DIGITAL numbers....no picture

my point is, that everyone wants a different icon for the battery. GTG will design the rom the way HE wants. For customization, you will have to do it yourself or wait for someone to do it for you.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
The AOS battery issue on our device seems to be, as far as I can tell, a reporting bug only the majority of the time.

My best battery life was when AOS was at 60%+.

My new experimental kernels seem to eliminate this reporting bug - AOS now is <5% at all times for me, but drain has never changed - it was never that high to begin with though. Less than 1% an hour in moderate signal, with typical deep sleep percentages at 93-95%. I don't recall of gtg included 10/9 experimental or non-experimental. If CPUSpy says 2.6.35.7, it's non-experimental and AOS will likely get falsely reported high for you. If it says 2.6.35.14, AOS will not get falsely reported high. Actual battery usage will be the same - at least in the cases I've seen on my device, the AOS bug is reporting-only and doesn't cause drain. (Yes, sometimes AOS can be associated with drain - but not always.)

This should have small battery performance improvements compared to the stock kernel, except in some corner cases that might have caused extreme drain before. (On the Infuse, the classic case for codeworkx's cpuidle patch was "weak-signal Gmail sync battery rape - Gmail sync would sometimes suck down 15-20%/hour or more in weak signal conditions prior to the cpuidle fix, that dropped to 5% when it happened after the patch.)

Note that some people have had oddball performance/drain issues that went away after a wipe data/factory reset.

An active radio and associated background data transfers dominate battery usage in our devices, just like they did with the Infuse. I get similar battery results with this device to my Infuse - drain in moderate signal less than 1% per hour, with deep-sleep at 93-95%. An Infuse in airplane mode improves to less than 5% per 24 hours with 99% deep sleep - it is amazing how much our radio dominates battery usage. I haven't tried an airplane mode test on this device.

At my desk at work I'm a bit over 1% an hour, 93% deep sleep. The Infuse approached 1.5-2%/hour in these conditions. (Extremely weak signal, bouncing between 1 bar and no signal.) Weak signal always increases battery usage as the radio cranks up its transmit power to compensate.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Cryptik!:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] mrRobinson:
I do once if going to completely new rom (I don't do on new rom versions). I use batterycalibration app in market.

just charge to 100% hit the batt calibration button which really just removes a .bin i think and then i leave drain and fully charge again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
I'm not even sure if you need to do that. The more I look at our fuel gauge's kernel driver the less calibration I think it needs.

Our kernel driver has no provisions for saving/loading batt stats. I know that our battery stats are only even touched at bootup, and I don't think those do much in terms of state of charge calculation.

I need to do more reading, but it is starting to look like the most you need to (or even CAN do) in terms of battery calibration is a battery pull or twiddling the reset_soc property in (I think) /sys/class/power_supply/fuelgauge/ - just like the original GalaxyS phones. It seems like our FG chip is capable of more - but those features aren't used.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gtg465x:

The AOSP lockscreen addon may not be as easy as I though. On other phones it's a 2 minute mod, but the lockscreen code looks quite different on the Galaxy S II so I'll have to do a bit of research and/or trial and error to figure this one out.

1.0.4 and clocks

Flashed 1.0.4 two days ago, everything running great, no issues with Exchange AS, BT, etc...

I do notice I have two analog clocks...only one actually shows in the app drawer, but two (with slightly different icons) are in the managed app list and TB app list...

The first one with the plain face is 12KB, the second with the tick marks is 4.95MB and is the one that shows in the app drawer. Not sure that it makes any difference, and both may have been their on the stock rom as well, and I just never noticed.

Regardless, impressed with the ROM for certain.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gtg465x:

With another update probably just around the corner, here's a rather stupid question.

I know it's best to do a full wipe and install the entire package when Rom gets an update. But with some 40+ apps configured to my liking, is it safe to use TiBu to do a "missing apps+data" restore afterwords? I see OP advises not to use TiBu for restore.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gtg465x:
No need to do any of that if you're already on v1.0.4. You can just flash the 1.0.4-1.0.5 update zip I provide and you'll be updated and good to go.

If it's anywhere above 50% you are safe. The classic "flash at 100%" HTCism does not apply to our hardware.

The only reason I say above 50% is because the battery dying mid-flash is usually a Bad Thing.

Yup. I've had to change my adblock settings at least once. If he evades them again I'm just going to have to set an outright XDA ignore, easier than repeatedly resetting adblock when he changes the image URL to evade adblock.

Have an issue here (aside from horrible battery life, but I'll get to that later)

With this ROM and Cog before, when updating apps manually from the Marketplace many times the phone reboots itself during the install phase...haven't noticed any commonalities in the apps (sd, phone, root), seems random, but happens almost every time. I've cleared market data, and did a data wipe before adding this ROM.

Also, I've asked this about COG on the Captivate, but DG doesn't always answer, and I don't remember the STOCK behavior, but, it's wicked annoying getting notifications while on a call...

I'm pretty sure on STOCK it vibrates, but, isn't audible, with COG and unnamed, the notifications blast through whether on call, speaker, bluetooth, and the other party can hear it as well...

It seems like on speaker though it just uses the stock notification, and/or a random one and not even the one assigned to the particular app.

I looked for an app to mute notifications while on a call to no avail...
