[Galaxy S II General] Entropy512:
Usually - sometimes the battery screen lies. Use CPUSpy to confirm, and BetterBatteryStats to investigate why.

Most common cause seems to be the fuel_alerted kernel wakelock bug - you'll see this with any ICS leak. It's due to a stupid bug that was fixed by developers here back in October but Samsung still hasn't fixed because they refuse to cooperate.

It should be fixed fairly quickly once kernel source comes out.

Yeah... For something that changes this rapidly, once you hit 1000+ pages (even before that IMO...) it's time for a new thread IMO to keep things clean.
[Galaxy S II General] petedaddi:
Why is latest build not showing up in Rom Manager?
[Galaxy S II General] Mark ter Grote:
Because they are shown at the nightly pages....
[Galaxy S II General] pflorin:
I hope you wont fail like previous Samsung petitions did! I belive its that time when vendors should really listen to consumer complaints.

good initiative!!

If they agree with your petition Galaxy S and Galaxy Tab OG owners might eventually receive a fully functional custom Ice Cream Sandwich ROM because there are millions of frustrated users out there with such devices.

good luck!
[Galaxy S II General] odysseus84:
Boot into recovery and go to mount stornage. There you can FORMAT system, cache and other partitions... format all (exc. emmc and sd). After this flash the rom againe. That is called a clean install and eliminates all old rom files...
[Galaxy S II General] SCHMANKii:
Is there actually any explanation of the changelog availabe? :D

Cause I have to admit, I have no idea what these changes stand for D:
[Galaxy S II General] gabx:
usually they appear on BOTH, cm nightly page AND ROM manager. But the last one doesn't, so this user has a legitim question.
[Galaxy S II General] codeworkx:
there's nothing interesting for users actually.

the last few lines are stuff which are doing stuff you'll never see on the GUI and don't fix anything you would realize.

If there's something which fixes anything, you'll know. ;)

If you don't understand changelogs you shouldn't use unstable firmware at all... Just saying
[Galaxy S II General] gee2012:
Sorry, don`t agree with you. First this rom is stable enough as a daily driver and secondly even noobs can use this rom as long as they don`t do stupid things (like installing GB kernels) :)
[Galaxy S II General] SCHMANKii:
Because it's written in here or because the changelogs are more meaningful? :D

What has understanding THESE changelogs to do with being able to use a rom or not? Don't see your point.

But doesn't matter.
[Galaxy S II General] Fabriciohss:
Nah, dont think so. I cant understand a word of that, however ive been using this "unstable" firmware of yours since last year.

[Galaxy S II General] freemini:
netchip is no flameboy, Paradoxx isn't either.
[Galaxy S II General] shumo:
what is this about ? what happened ?
[Galaxy S II General] freemini:
netchip and Paradoxx make ROMs based on Cyanogen and others. It's a pretty popular ROM. Teamhacksung made their work on ICS open source, but warned about some kind of kang-prevention switch thing. It appears that protection erases the bootloader, aka hardbrick. The effects of it I'm not sure, I'm just explaining what I've read.

Sorry for posting such BS.
[Galaxy S II General] XpLoDWilD:
This boy (netchip) is a pure douchebag. I never saw someone as idiot as him. Just to sum things up, he's annoying us everyday on chat and other places. He's 12 years old, and wants to be an amazing ROM developer... Which is not bad, okay. But his mom doesn't let him root his phone because she says it's illegal. Therefore, he gives untested stuff to other people, which is WAY MORE risky than any CyanogenMod release, experimental or not.

Just because he's so dumb and basically copies everything that CyanogenMod does into his "rom", we played once with him, making him believe we put an "anti-kang" security that ruins bootloader if he flashes. Now he's mad because we banned him from our chats, and spread false news.

We hoped that he would grow a bit in his head, but I guess it's a lost case for ever. Just ignore him...

[Galaxy S II General] shumo:
quiestion please , if anyone can be kind to answer me

i am now preparing to upgrade to a new build for the first time since using cm9

the instructions say :

Upgrading from earlier version of CyanogenMod 9:

- Copy CM9 ZIP to your internal SDCard

- Boot into Recovery

- Flash CM9 zip

- Wipe cache partition and dalvik-cache

- Reboot

but , if i want to also install the latest GAPS when should i do it ? after i flash the rom before i wipe cache/dalvik ? or when exactly ?

anybody did this before can someone cofirm it will work ?

thank you in advance
[Galaxy S II General] nightmw:
After backup and flashing cm9-build but before rebooting.

It doesn't matter when you wipe caches

[Galaxy S II General] Net.silb:
The CyanogenMod server is very slow, since there aren't any significant changes I don't think it's worth upgrading to 20120305 build...

Changes:

use full_base_telephony.mk as base (android_device_samsung_galaxys2) // I am not sure what that is...

updated extract script (android_device_samsung_galaxys2) // Doesn't sound significant...

allow use on GT-I9100P (android_device_samsung_galaxys2) // Not relevant to GT-I9100 users...

[Galaxy S II General] gbohm:
you should really rethink what you are reading most of the time the truth is jumping right in your face

it is understandable that team hackasung doesn't want rom cookers to use their work because most people will not appreciate who did the real work. there was a very prominent rom builder in the sgs forum and all people were like : "oh why don't u join cm the work would be done tomorrow."

stuff like this makes me loose faith in the human mind

My phone never went into deep sleep, and pulling the battery actually solved it (latest build). Thanks for the advice!
[Galaxy S II General] Hassi94:
Hi guys, wanted some advice here. My phone seems to go into deep sleep, it takes a second or two to wake when I press unlock.

But I've had many kernel wakelocks and partial wakelocks according to BetterBatteryStats.

I've had 1h15m17s of 'AudioOut_1' partial wakelock. I haven't had any music apps being used and my phone has been on silent since charge (and before).

In terms of Kernel Wakelocks:

I've got 'event0-1830', 'event1-1830', 'event2-1830', 'event3-1830', 'event7-1830'

All these have about 14 minutes each except event7 which has 7 minutes.

And 'alarm_rtc' has also been on kernel wakelock for 12 minutes.

Honestly I'm not really sure what these things in BetterBatteryStats mean, but I was hoping you guys could help?
[Galaxy S II General] kkipsy:
I just love this rom!!!
[Galaxy S II General] Entropy512:
It's a load of horse****.

It sounds like Xplodwild may have pulled a prank on netchip (claiming that if he flashed something he'd brick, but not actually bricking anything). If netchip actually hardbricked - This would not surprise me. He's notorious for releasing completely untested crap, and I'd be shocked if netchip hasn't caused at least a few hardbricks himself.

As mentioned - netchip hasn't even ROOTED his phone. I'm sorry, but you cannot develop kernels or system firmware without LOTS of testing.

The only cases where blind development works are:

1) Targeting devices extremely similar to one you own (e.g. I9100 vs. I777)

2) Small changes to an existing device you used to own and know intimately (me doing minor kernel maintenance on the Infuse)

Ugh... That's said. The problem is that people don't realize that the skill level to achieve even a working AOSP/CM bringup is WAY beyond the skill level required to customize existing firmware.

In my opinion, the skill levels are:

AOSP/CM porters/maintainers > kernel developers > firmware modders

Especially when Samsung hardware is the target, because you're dealing with a complete lack of documentation from a vendor who intentionally keeps throwing roadblocks in your way.
[Galaxy S II General] XpLoDWilD:
I like this one, absolutely real :)

And don't take me the entire responsible for the prank, nebkat and codeworkx were also part of it (to give you an idea of the level of boringness and lulz).

Anyway, that's enough about him.

Battery life

Hi,

To anyone who is having trouble with their battery life I suggest try the GreenPower app (free version is fine). I think it has been mentioned on this thread before but I thought I'd give it another thumbs up. Before I installed this, I would go to bed with my phone fully charged, and waking up 8 hours later with it dead. This was probably due to wake-locks, no deep sleep etc. Once I installed this program, my phone would only lose a percent or 2 overnight (10 at most so far). This pretty much replicates the results I was getting on VillianRom 3.0.

I am using the LHP modem if anyone was wondering. Before complaining about the battery life, be PROACTIVE. Try this or another such battery app, though I can say this one is excellent. I turned off the apps ability to manage wifi though because it actually turned it on more than I wanted when I was at home. I have it just managing mobile data and only when the screen is turned off. I still struggle to comprehend why people are complaining about the battery life when this is still an experimental build and will be until they release a stable version, though with this app I am able to use this as a daily builld.

Because the FM Radio thing. How about learning programming, ask for the source of the cm7 radio, and then try to port it to cm9 when its finally released.If you need it so desperately you should consider that. Cm9 is not finished yet. It will be one day i am sure, and there will maybe be a Fm radio support. But because just 1 to 2 percent of sgs2 users use it on a daily basis, there are more important things to do now. I dont want to be rude or something, but i think u wont understand it otherwise. Whining around is no solution. Just my two cents and i dont want to offend anybody.
