What's the STK?

Edit:

Ok i know now. Thx
[Galaxy S II General] rajarshi10:
So SIMTOOLKIT included means it can read contacts directly from Sim card now? :)
[Galaxy S II General] eseregin:
As for me STK.apk is apk that I erase from From first :-)

But somebody still might be use it....
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
Just flash it, then boot to recovery and flash the new nightly or RC, there isn't any need to get a new .tar
[Galaxy S II General] shotta35:
Why would you need it anyways as the RE edition is to only get you on CM9 then you cna upgrade to the latest nightly or RC1 if you rather. Upgrading it to the newest one would have it be outdated in less than 24hrs again so why bother? The RE edition is basically to help n00bs, if you already have CWM or know how to root your device you don't need it.
[Galaxy S II General] androidkid311:
Ermmm anyone about the random camera flash when you open the app? :)
[Galaxy S II General] SimboXXX:
No, not happening here. Try deleting camera data.
[Galaxy S II General] androidkid311:
Really... well not opening but close the camera app using home button...does it flash randomly when you do it? I want to come back to cm9 lol.

Hi i noticed these files while searching through /preload/data/app

Ive attached a screenshoot. I assume these are not cm9 apk's and just files that remained after flashing from stock ics

No.

that's right. just delete it
[Galaxy S II General] Ok_Kaleidoscope5109:
I understand the HAL sensor is broken but can the default settings at least reflect usable brightness values in the table?

102-1000 shouldnt be at 60 brightness. Needs more like 75-80 at least. I noticed there's a big jump once you hit 70 brightness in terms of readability.
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
Then change it, this is why there is an option to change the default values to something you prefer.
[Galaxy S II General] androidkid311:
Thanks for advice mate. :).
[Galaxy S II General] Ok_Kaleidoscope5109:
im asking for the defaults to be coded in to something more usable for the general public. yes i can change it on my own. I do a lot of full wipes so its annoying to have to change 50489057x things. Certain things I understand are personal preferences, but I'm pretty sure the default autobrightness settings are a little on the dim side for most people....

Also sometimes Editing Light Sensor values doesn't even save for me. I'm not sure what's wrong. I'm running RC1.
[Galaxy S II General] atomic339:
I have problem with HAL sensor on Nightly form form 28.06. I use fluxi kernel and set to hal sensor and next use lux autobrightness but it always set to 100%. In app "lux" is always about 10000
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
Don't use a custom kernel.
[Galaxy S II General] :
Change your sensor hal to open source. I heard that it fix autobrightness but breaks compass.
[Galaxy S II General] atomic339:
I want to use Open Source but it brake my sensor to get always 100%. With stock Samsung sensor it works good
[Galaxy S II General] :

One question.

Is it normal that after 1 hour of spotify playback the stas from settings are:

Spotify drain: 7%

Media server drain: 8%

I know that the % value does not say anything, but is it normal that Media Server drain is bigger than spotify?

Note: I didnt stream music, played downloaded music.

Strange that there is a freeze on CM9 then they add more features

http://www.cyanogenmod.com/blog/cm9-code-freeze-has-started
[Galaxy S II General] res2220:
The freeze was for the RC that got be released and had to be a bit more confirmed stable than the nightly's. Dev's will continue to have nightly's and new things on the changelog as CM9 is updated and new nightly's will continue to come out as well.

more fun for us daily flashers :)
[Galaxy S II General] aramil:
Code freezes allow developers to bug fix code without introducing new features that make it less stable. Ie RC1. Nightly are still the bleeding sometimes not so stable edge.

The freeze only apply to RC's.

Download the latest build. Download the zip on the link above. Drag the boot.img from the CM9 zip and drop to the Flash Kernel [boot.img].zip. After that, just flash the zip on CWM. [Also, use those zips if you want to flash modems]
[Galaxy S II General] digeddydogg:
Or you could DL ktool from market, flash nightly. Open up ktool. Hit dump zimage to SD. Reflash/restore your rom. Go back into ktool. Hit flash zimage from SD card. Reboot. Jobs a goodun
[Galaxy S II General] :
Isn't better to just use Mobile Odin? [if you have no money, use the lite version] Still, I prefer to flash modems directly from CWM. I don't like mobile odin, I just cant trust it. [specially because I don't use Samsung ROMs ;)]
[Galaxy S II General] digeddydogg:
Yeah man, I use CWM for modems. I'm still unsure about mobile Odin. I just stick to what's most commonly used. Less chance of something going wrong. Was mentioning hc-ktool for kernel. He wanted CM kernel right? I find it easier to pie off the computer and just extract the zimage straight into the device. Less of a faff to get the laptop out (wait a long time for it to boot, its old and knackered) and all that jazz.

so in this way i do not have to remember several password for each bank account.

set number of levels to 6 and save without a other change. Now back to 5 levels, do not load defaults. Now you get saved values include for lux over 10000 ;)
[Galaxy S II General] namnoops:
Custom light levels

Indeed a bug I've seen... As a workaround, try to change the

number

of levels, and then you can save whatever you want. I think you can even change it back to the default number of levels after you changed it to something else.

Think the issue is that the values are outside the limits :)

You can't choose a background for the notification area in android! If you want to change it, you have to install a theme.. and since there are no themes for cm9 yet....

The question you asked doesn't directly belong to CM9. If you want to know how to theme Android, go to that respective forum and you'll find plenty of information. There currently isn't (and there never was) an option in CyanogenMod or AOSP to change the background of the notification bar - though CM7 did support the T-Mobile Theme Engine, which allowed you to download and install supported themes from the market.
[Galaxy S II General] H-KaN:

[Galaxy S II General] Hollow.Droid:
Assuming that ICS or CM9 hasn't changed in file layout then you need to change status_bar_item_background_normal in the framework-res.apk. It's not the simplest procedure but a good starting point is here under point 8 (Where I found the info above). Also note the tools he used, they link to good starting points for each. I'm also unaware if these tools have been updated for use in CM9 so you may have to ask in the relevant threads. It also states that that guide is for 2.2, however the linked to updated guide for 2.3 hasn't changed in respect to what you're doing so it could be possible that 4.0 hasn't either.
[Galaxy S II General] mintvilla:
dont be so ignorant, your acting all high and mighty, yet want some one to do things for you. This is a brand new alpha build... and your asking for themes and mods. Theres no point in any modder spending time modding an alpha rom, when theres a new the next day and the day after and the day after, which will break things.

This isnt even CM9, the team are still hard at work building cm9. This is just a pre-cm9 rom.

So next time dont ask for stupid things, and dont be so arsey when people tell you its not possible.
[Galaxy S II General] cocchiararo:
you, asking a question like that, in the CM9 discusion thread, clarly seemed to point to a feature of the ROM itself, its more than undersandable that you were told that you couldn't (and worst stuff later on, when you decided to call someone "unkowledgeable")

People were saying that the battery life of cm9 is really decent, but i'm experiencing quite a lot of battery drain.. about 10% an hour.
