Brightness

someone who has problems with the display light sensor? light regulates constantly in dark surroundings. been here since build 5 or 6, and have never seen any solution. experiencing the same on 3 units.

Is it just me? :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] KonTemPt:
Nope I have the problem too. Pretty sure its a known issue. I have my brightness set manually to almost as low as it goes. I find that fine and saves battery too I think.

I see some based CM9 ROM make use of a special version of busybox, reported as 1.19.x-cm9 by some busybox isntaller.

Is there any reasons for this special version?

Over all, can't we install normal version of this required by so many functions package?

There's no problem with the microphone API, so I guess the bug won't be fixed ATM.

THS ICS Build 16

I've been extremely happy with the performance and features of Teamhacksungs ICS builds (been on THS ICS since build 9 or 10). The team has done a great job. I'll be honest, I have tried some of the other ICS ROMs out there, but I always come back to THS ICS. If any of that team is listening, you have my vote for developers of the year!

Voice Dial issues with bluetooth.

Hi,

I have been using Build 15 since it came out and its awesome. but i just noticed yesterday that Voice Dial is not working (unexpectedly stopped working) when i have it connected to my Bluetooth GPS, it just does redial if i use the voice call on my Garmin 1390t. I have re installed the gapps20120207 and the fixer.

Is this a known issue? I have looked through the Development Thread and couldn't find anything.

i have installed the Build 16 on my Samsung GT i9000 and it is a really great work you did ;)

I had pre installed the CM 7 Nightly Build 181 before and get a install error (000x13) dont write it down ;( sry, but then i rebooted the phone an the CM9 was applieng the Apps and everything works fine.

No Crashes No Lags and the biggest + Point is the Akku. With CM7 i had probs that my Akku was empty after 1 Day

The first charging process with CM 9 took a long time, dont know why but now the Handy is after 24 Hours @75% akku :D That is amazing ;)

big thx for good work

Elduderin0

Tested:

Bluetooth Car connection works better then with every other Rom before

Gmail Kalender & Email syncs works

Email Exchange,Contacts & Calender works

Clock tested with Timer function works

Face Unlock did not really work, had to enter the Code everytime

ES Explorer works fine

Musik & Video works fine

External SD is showed @System but cannot find @Explorer
[Galaxy S I9000 General] deafened:
I agree. I know several people that can overclock to 1300 or 1400 with no issues, but I always have random reboots.

Whenever I've had lag issues, I usually blame it on something I did when updating. I generally just take the time to reinstall: ROM, Gapps, kernel. This has always fixed my issue.

Chrome running on CM9 build 16

Hi!

As I said on the development thread, I managed to get Chrome running on THS's CM9 build 16. The issue is that on the build.prop (located in /system), the device is declared as running under Gingerbread:

ro.build.id=GINGERBREAD

That needs to be changed into:

ro.build.id=IML74K

Also, you may notice that the description+fingerprint say:

ro.build.description=GT-I9000-user 2.3.5 GINGERBREAD XXJVT release-keys
ro.build.fingerprint=samsung/GT-I9000/GT-I9000:2.3.5/GINGERBREAD/XXJVT:user/release-keys

So just to be sure, we're gonna change that to:

(EDIT: This step is NOT mandatory, you can stop at the first step if you want to, it works fine, as I said, this one is "just to be sure".)

ro.build.description=soju-user 4.0.3 IML74K 239410 release-keys
ro.build.fingerprint=google/soju/crespo:4.0.3/IML74K/239410:user/release-keys

Now your CM9'ed Galaxy S will be recognized by the Market/apps as a Nexus S running Android 4.0.3.

That should fix the issue.

If you don't want to go and edit your build.prop, I've attached a zip file containing the right build.prop.

Please note that it is NOT a flashable zip, just open it and EXTRACT the build.prop file.

All you will need is to copy the build.prop file using a root-enabled file explorer to /system and replace your old build.prop (you can do a backup of that file if you want).

Reboot, and install/launch Google Chrome Beta.

This shouldn't break you device or anything, as you can see on the screenshot, it works just fine, but you should always do backups, always, it costs nothing but SDcard space and time.

That's all, enjoy!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] DragonSGA:

@lilmoe2002: You're welcome. ^^

@mammenj: Well, as he said, you'll not be able to see protected apps if the signature is not registered, this one is actually registered since it is the official Nexus S one.

I'm able to see protected apps, such as Desktop Visualizer, Eurosport.com, Draft plug-in for twicca, automatic wallpaper changer 3. ;)

@orshlomo: Maps and OI File Manager aren't included with the GApps, OI File Manager isn't even a Google App. You can still grab them both for free on the Android Market.

It happened to me once but the issue was my broadband network.

Locked in a boot Loop

Hi,

And thanks for your explanation.

I have a similar problem with my phone.

I have installed the build 16 on my phone (from the stable version of CM 7 for SGS) and everything has been working great (even the Google Apps).

I have removed my external micro-SD from my phone (as it turns out that if I want to sync apps such as Spotify, it put all the data on the external SD).

But once my sync done, I have inserted my external micro-SD to my phone and decided to reboot it and since, I am locked into a booting loop.

Samsung Logo > CM Logo > Samsung Logo

I have seen that Lilian Marius had a similar problem (with a different origin), and wanted to check with you if it was OK to totally wipe the phone and re-install from Odin.

If so, shall I directly re-install the build 16 from Odin, or do you think it is safer to try a more stable ROM?

Anyway, thanks a lot for your help.

Kind regards

Jmax
[Galaxy S I9000 General] KyojinKun:
@Thejmax:

So you aren't even able to access CWM Recovery, right?

If you can access it, try to reflash the ROM without wiping, then reboot.

If even doing this doesn't fix the issue, then try to flash with a wipe.

If you can't access the CWM Recovery, then no need to reflash a stock ROM from Odin. Just grab this fix here, you'll have to flash it through Odin, remember to put it on Code/PDA entry, and

untick

Auto-reboot.

Once that fix flashed, boot into the Recovery (you can pull-off the battery, or use the 3-button combination right from Download Mode, both work). Then re-flash build 16 or a compatible kernel if you have it on your SDcard, no need to wipe.

You'll then have access to your phone without loosing data. ;)

Hope this helps!

@fulii:

As far as I remember, the ROM still doesn't support Viber. I could be wrong though.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Thejmax:
Merci KyojinKun! ;)

I have managed to get back to recovery mode :cool:, but I think that I have made a rookie mistake :eek: [I am so ashamed that I don't know if I should plead guilty of deleting the .zip from my SD card].

Anyway, practice makes perfect, so thanks a lot for your really appreciated help.

Hi guys, i could do with some help please. I attempted to flash my phone last night with build 16 after rooting from a stock UK Gingerbread rom. Followed instructions to the letter installed Clockwork Mod ect. However the flash just kept failing over and over, screen to quick for me to see.

Everything appeared to be ok, then it would error and reboot to the splash screen. still happening now. I can get into Download mode ok, but can't flash a rom or recover, or get any further.

Has anyone any ideas how i can resurect my S1, contract isn't up for another 5 months so don't really want to be buying a new one now (especially as i was planning on hanging onto till the S3)

Hi. I had the almost the same problem flashing my Galaxy S for the first time. It said something about "assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device")......"

To solve the problem you must revert to stock firmware and before flashing B16 YOU MUST ENABLE DEBBUGING FOR USB from Setting. I don't know exactly where in setting will be this option (because i'm on b16 now) but must be checked.

That's how I resolved my problem.
