This is not a bug or problem, because VPN requires you to have a

pattern (password), PIN (password) or normal password. So, when

setting this up (VPN) you first have to fill in your current password

which is used to unlock your phone, AFTER that you can setup VPN.

battery life worse than build 16
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sthomas38:
For me it's better. Way better.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] fipsib:
for me it's also better!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] CommanderROR:
While we are speaking of battery life...why is it worse on all ICS ROMs than it is on Gingerbread? Are we missing some drivers or is ICS itself more power-hungry?

I'm asking this because I plan to buy the Samsung Nexus and want to be forewarned what battery life might be like...

One other thing thoug...I had th feeling that battery life was slightly better on the 4.04 ROM I tried a few days agao, the ROM itself was still too buggy, but it felt smoother and the battery performance seemed better, did not test it much though, so I can't be sure. Is this indication of a bug in 4.03?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sthomas38:
The battery is buggy on 4.0.3. The bug has been fixed on 4.0.4 :).

U are wrong, only thing changed is how battery use for android os is calculated, 4.0.4 will most likely change nothing on battery life itself.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] parhelion69:
It bugs me that Cyanogenmod team fails to acknowledge that the "low memory bug" is a very common issue, yet they just say that 90% of the people are without this (without backing data). I've had this problem myself with every CM7-CM9 version I've used and it's probably the most usual problem users report.

The idea of a smartphone is the capability to have a wide array of apps, so if you're limited to install only a few then it's a big detriment. And even if "only" 10% of users have this, it's still a considerable portion and a solution has to be implemented.

An option to select where to store data (data or datadata), per-app basis would be best I think, or automate the quoted solution, to have only sql files and the like on the fast partition. Anything that solves this would be good really, since there always will be many people having this problem (and asking a solution for this...)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cdmackay:
To be fair though, this NAND-based yaffs /datadata partition is the reason that we get hugely better performance than we did with stock; at least I find that to be so.

Being able to find 170MB of space in which to fit it, given the NAND constraints of the S was quite a feat, and the CM team should be applauded.

But it is also a pain, to be sure :)

We're getting OT, but I note in that other thread listed above that it's the WebView per-app cache that really fills up /datadata, at least in my experience.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jeebspawnshop:
The users that need to install a large cacophony of apps are indeed a smaller portion, and as such, do not need to be specifically catered to.

Also, CM is released as the devs see fit for a variety of reasons - it is not your place to argue with those reasons, and thus a solution does not "have" to be implemented. Unless, of course, you are somehow contributing something to the process, or get in to the source yourself and code your way to a solution.

And finally, the fix which is currently employed and suggested repeatedly is readily available with a simple search through the thread. More advanced app-speed-up-fixes are also available throughout the forums. Additionally, any users unwilling or unable to perform this simple solution should not be installing CM in the first place.

So there's my diatribe for the week.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cdmackay:
I agree with your other points, but not the above. It doesn't take all that many apps to start running out of space in /datadata, when each of them is wasting 6MB per-app on the Android WebView cache... that on top of the more sensible uses of that fs.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jedathoss:
Don't know if this is something that has affected anyone else and therefore a bug or if my battery is screwed. Installed build 17 3 days ago and everything has been great, until today.

Phone updated Chrome this morning and when i left the house (around 10:30 am) it appeared i had about 60ish% battery left. Went to make a call at about 11:45 and phone appeared to be in a boot loop and could do anything, pulled battery and nothing happened.

I have come home and put phone on charge, and now am just getting an empty battery, then going to the circle thingy and back top the battery. Phone has been plugged into the mains for around 20 mins so far

Any ideas or is this a new battery job?

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] andoceo:
I noticed that in BUILD 17 you cannot remove anymore ( it worked smooth on BUILD 16 and before ) an app by swyping it from menu, into desktop top left, where appears : X REMOVE .

If you swype that icon into desktop top right position ( (i) App Info ) this works and display the App Info of that application you are swyping.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Leegalaxy:
Hold the app over the remove icon for a few seconds and see what happens...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] andoceo:
You are right.

But before BUILD 17 , you were asked if you wish to remove right after releasing it there.

Anyway I believe this is safer because you can't remove an app by mistake. If you really want to remove it, you should be patient for a few second :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] the drm:
Since build 16, and now 17 my contacts refuse to snyc. They will download fine from google, but after that it always fails.

What I've done:

* Tried gapps_fixer, updated gapps, fixer again.. etc

* Wiped system data/factory reset!

* Cleared cache, fix permissions...

* Reflashed the ROM

* I'm not restoring apps or system data.

I don't really find anyone having this issue in my searches, usually calendar... That oddly works just fine for me (even without gapps_fixer).

Not really sure where to go from here, worked great in builds previous to 16.

Do contacts not sync to google over WIFI? I've canceled my data plan.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pawitp:
System automatically clears the cache when the space is low. The problem with "low space" is that you have too many applications installing libraries in /datadata (which can be solved by moving the said app to SD). It's a Galaxy S-specific problem (with our sucky NAND) and thus a general solution cannot be implemented.

Speed observation b17/b16

Hi pawitp

Just a general observation. Using b17, I noticed that it was more sluggish (swiping through menus, bringing up app drawer) than b16.

So I wiped everything and tested both builds absolutely stock. I waited for Google log-in info to settle down and installed no further apps. Then just playing through the interfaces, b17 was noticeably more stuttery (lower fps) than b16. As there are no errors, I didn't know what diagnostic info might be useful to you.
