To the one asking about Spirit FM, I use the audio setting ALSA. Works perfect, you will get that nervous warning from early development time panic about blown up speakers but you can ignore that.

I use it frequently (nice word in this FM app context), very happy with the huge investment made :)

Vogie: Is it possible to re-size /datadata partition to make it bigger?

I have about 90MB free space on /System and >1G on /data.

No, that is not possible, the chip is full. /data is on another chip.

However, you can use /data instead of /datadata by putting a file .nodatadata in /datadata. Then reboot and you will find everything in /data at the cost of performance.

Or you can move games to sdcard and shorten sync time of gmail from 30 days to ea 4.

DSP manager includes the voodoo sound improvements. Scroll right...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hansonator:
Ya, I know. I messed around with the settings for a while but couldn't get the same sound I get with the voodoo control app. I only use my phone for music in the car, plugged into the aux. With Dsp it just wasn't loud enough. I had to turn the volume up 10+ more than with voodoo.

I just had an idea today though that it might be the bass boost that affects the loudness. I'll play with it some more when I flash the next build because I would rather be using the stock kernel. Though semaphore kernel hasn't caused me any unexpected issues so far.

I really just wish they would allow the option of using voodoo. Supercurio did an excellent job with it and I was happy to pay for the full app to support his work.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] Tatsuya79:
You can install Semaphore kernel 0.8.1 if you really need voodoo control.

It's still compatible with it.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] kobik77:
Thanks guys.

I found the problem.

One of his restored apps was an app which speaks the caller name and apparently it wasn't ICS compatible.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] :
Yes, bass boost affects overall volume with voodoo. The higher the boost, the lower the volume. It's in the bass boost range setting. By default DSP manager had the boost set at max, which severely reduces volume.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] VVolverin3:
Hi guys, total n00b here, just looking for some advice!

After 2 days of flashing a tonne of roms to my Galaxy S I finally got this ICS build 16 working on it (having previously been on gingbred). I wiped my phone a few times, and I broke it more than a few times (failed to boot properly, not actually bricked thankfully) but now I have a problem that I'm unsure how to proceed with.

So just to clarify my Galaxy S I9000 is freshly factory reseted to have nothing on it, and then I've put build 16 of this ICS alpha on it which is pretty awesome. But now my phone won't recognize my sim card. I put my sim in a galaxy s2 and it worked, and I put my friend's sim in my phone and it was not recognized so it appears to definitely be a problem with my phone.

I'd like to think I haven't damaged anything hardware wise so I think it might be a firmware thing, I may have cleared some important firmware that the device needs to read the sim? I tried searching the problem a bit but it seems like a lot of the questions I found similar to mine have gone un-answered. :( So yeah I've signed up here to ask you guys, sorry to bother you!

So the all important question: does anyone have any suggestions for how to get my Galaxy S to recognize my sim? Is there any firmware or anything that I can flash to it that might work?

I have an Australian Optus sim by the way, just in case that is important.

Thanks in advance guys!

Do you have a backup efs folder?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] VVolverin3:
Hi mate, thanks for your reply.

I did not keep a backup, I'm not that clever. My friend has the same phone and the same network carrier though - would it be feasible to copy this efs folder from his phone and put it on mine too? Or are they unique?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] kinghorsey:
They are unique to the handset I'm afraid. They are essentially serial numbers.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Andrew_Low:
Efs is unique.

You might have busted your modem too. I don't think ics overwrites the modem, so if you started with a bum modem it wouldn't get fixed on its own.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] kinghorsey:
Your best bet is to reflash your phone with your carrier's stock from and go on from there.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Leegalaxy:
Yeah... sh*t sorry to be the bearer of bad news. I would do a whole lot of Googling about IMEI and see if the last suggestion (flash official carrier firmware) would sort it out...

Are you sure you never made a backup efs folder? Sometimes you do and don't even know it. If you ever followed any step by step guides to flashing say cm7 they all pretty much involve creating a backup. Do you have a nandroid backup saved?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] VVolverin3:
Thanks again guys.

I'm looking around my device through windows explorer on my laptop and I have an efs folder inside a backup folder.

device (internal_sd/root directory/whatever you call it) > backup > efs > etc

Is this good news? How could I go about using this. I'm fairly certain I did a Nandroid backup before attempting the ICS flash however I then factory reset my phone and have done several data wipes so I'm not too sure how to restore that folder, or if it's of any use.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] kinghorsey:
I've accidentally wiped my efs before too. Flashing carrier stock fixed it.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] VVolverin3:
Thanks guys.

Probably a dumb question but how do I get the carrier stock? Is it something I should be searching for? Or something I should have backed up a long time ago? Or something that should have come with the phone when I got it? Etc

I've been trying to "restore" this EFS folder I found in various ways for the past few hours but to no avail. That EFS Pro program wouldn't start for me, and most of the other methods I've seen are assuming you had done a proper backup in the first place lol

I've tried a few of the terminal options - copying the nv_data.bin file across to the phone I think, but that doesn't seem to have worked/done anything. I dunno.... I'm struggling here haha

Thanks again though

UPDATED ----

I flashed a modem rom to my phone and now it seems to work. That's good! :D

I'm still missing the google stuff though e.g. the android market and gmail account options and stuff like that. Going to try flashing that google apps thing again and hope that helps. *fingers crossed*

UPDATED AGAIN ----

I seem to have installed the google apps stuff successfully and things are working again. The only other issue I had was that the phone was occasionally turning itself off, or not responding if I locked the screen with the power button, but I don't know, this might have been fixed. *shrug*

THANK YOU VERY MUCH to everyone who helped me out, and to all the guys who dedicate their time to doing all this stuff. S'pretty amazing. Cheers. :D

MVNO roaming problem

I have the same problem and no real solution for it.

My mobile virtual provider (MVNO) "bob" (23211) roams (national) in the net of "A1" (23201).

i don't want to allow data roaming generally for obvious reasons.

Has anyone faced the same problem and solved it already ??!!

on i9000 Gingerbread - Rom's the following solution was possible

in the file

/etc/spn-conf.xml

an entry

<spnOverride numeric="23211" fake_home_on="23201"/> <!-- bob @ A1 network -->

solved the national roaming problem:

on cm9 ICS the "fake_home_on=" part isn't working ...

I only found a dirty hack, which is at least useful to get rid of the nasty "R" roaming symbol.

i run this script

#!/system/bin/sh
setprop gsm.sim.operator.alpha "A1"
setprop gsm.operator.isroaming false

as root after boot automagically using the script manager app.

then my android is thinking there is no roaming and it makes the data-connection using the apn settings of bob.

instead of that annoying "R" symbol i get at least the "H" or "E" symbols for indicating data-connection by HSPA or Edge.

i really hope, that this problem will be solved seriously and that i do not have to use such a dirty hack for a long time!!!

Any comments ?
