Ok so i am going to go ahead and Install the latest version of cm9 today.

I will do a full wipe on my phone first of the apps etc and start from fresh.

I want to confirm though that

1. the SD card feature is working and that it reads images etc on the card in the gallery and music on the card within the media player feature. Im not botherd about transfering too and from pc with the phone attached.

2.The portable hotspot is working.
[Galaxy S II General] raptorjesus1337:
I also experience this and I just use Wi-Fi transfer for now until it's fixed as I'm sure they're already aware of it.
[Galaxy S II General] Ogy77:
Can anyone write solution how I can install some app from market,step by step please guys?
[Galaxy S II General] michaeldcoates:
Thanks for the tip, is Wi-Fi transfer part of CM9? Or is there a specific app you had in mind? Also I don't think this will allow me to solve my other problem which is deleting a troublesome file that is stopping me from installing some key apps I use.
[Galaxy S II General] mintvilla:
Done

First post updated
[Galaxy S II General] cocchiararo:
a friend of mine told me "hey, CM9 browser sucks, its way slower than KK5"

i said "that can't be the case, CM8 has the ICS browsers, which should be the best".

I then browsed a little on some heavy sites, and it does suck xD

how comes ? (i mean, i know its experimental, but i thought it was just a ICS browser, no adaption needed).

You can't tell i don't really care, i had CM9 for a few days already, and never browsed, but my curiosity forced me to ask

[Galaxy S II General] mintvilla:
Air droid i find is the best way to transfer files to and from the phone. its free, you just need wifi
[Galaxy S II General] mintvilla:
Firstly, you shouldnt be using titanium as per codeworkx instructions.

Secondly, you have to clear the data on the market, go to settings/ app/ find market/ then clear data.

When you go back into the market you have to accept T&C's then all your apps will be back in the my apps department

Potentially different file paths with the restored app data causing problems/FCs. Do clean installs if you want a relatively problem free experience (as Codeworkx suggested).
[Galaxy S II General] crazyscow:
i don't really miss youtube, but since a few posts above mentioned to search stuff. i went and searched for it. however, when i run the terminal and type those commands it says error does not exist. tried deleting them in astro file manager, but i can't do it either. tried searching this problem with "adb error".
[Galaxy S II General] navodwickra:
let me get this straight you flashed the newest build and deleted those two files and youtube doesn't play (wrong colour profile though)?

[Galaxy S II General] Goddchen:
Did anyone else notice that with the latest build adb seems to be broken?

when connecting via USB, the phone isn't recognized at all (tried pluggin USB in and out, enabling / disabling usb debugging, etc...). When i use "WirelessADB" for example it works but when i do "adb shell" i do not get a root shell as it used to be. But instead a get a shell with user "shell".

Can anyone test this GPS fix?

It is CWM flashable. Please report back here and in a PB to me.

some people say the battery with new update is good , some say its bad , i dont really understand how it is . can u guys suggest ?
[Galaxy S II General] gasparzim:
You can't just delete them. If you're using adb, you need super user permissions. Astro does not give you that, you need a file manager like root explorer with the filesystem mounted as R/W.
[Galaxy S II General] bradasmith:
I have restored with Titanium Backup, you have to change the preference for where it restores to, make sure it is set to 'Internal'

This ROM is Stable, but the TV OUT function does not work :(

Stable release is not stable!
[Galaxy S II General] htchd2sucks:
How unfair is that comment towards the developers work...

Have you thought about it before posting such critic?
[Galaxy S II General] SGT John Doe:
Thinking about switching to CM9 but cant understand why Nightly versions are released after the Stable version, especially when the team claims to put the development on the shell and focus on CM10 instead.

So whats the different between the stable and the two nightly?
[Galaxy S II General] liptonace:
This is a mere statement of facts, not criticism. Other functions in this ROM work very well.
[Galaxy S II General] salleq:
It's not CM based bug. We just tested with a friends brand new SGS3 with everything stock - same problem, joining hangouts freezes g+.
[Galaxy S II General] JacquesR:
Presumably simply because the buildbot hasn't been turned off. There have been no changes in the nightlies since the stable release: http://changelog.bbqdroid.org/#galaxys2/cm9/next
[Galaxy S II General] pandalow:

[Galaxy S II General] g3ckospy:

just switched to cm9! pretty cool rom!

however, i'm getting multipdp wakelocks, but have no email or fb or google services syncing, only whatsapp.

what's the longest screen on time you can get with this rom?
[Galaxy S II General] Spiralzz:
Well, screen on time varied from 3 hours to six hours, depending on usage.
[Galaxy S II General] ccrows:
CM9 has been "Stable" for a while now. It's just got the "Stable" name slapped on it, that's all. Many users (including myself) have been using CM9 as a Daily Driver for weeks without any issues.

As for new nightlies, that's just the devs caring about still fixing background bugs that you will probably never notice.

Think of it this way. Microsoft releases an OS. At the time of release it is Stable. They still make updates and patches afterwards. Sure most is for security, but they are still fixing bugs too.

^ Long Story Short - CM9 is Stable and very reliable to use as a Daily Driver... ;)

thanks for your help, I had also installed getRIL from google play now
[Galaxy S II General] codeworkx:
If we decide to not support tvout or fmradio, then this has nothing to do with stable or not.

Don't compare cm with a stock rom.
[Galaxy S II General] chrismalla:
Then why bloating the app list up with TvOut.apk?
[Galaxy S II General] :
Don't know, maybe a placeholder?

App list still bloated, who needs QuickSearchBox.apk, Provision.apk, Picotts.apk ... which Gapps already replaces? Also, there are some real useless apks, like SoundRecorder.apk [what it does? I think nothing].

So, CM10, you think totally worth upgrading now?
[Galaxy S II General] coversnail:
SoundRecorder is used by other apps, it's not a standalone app. Though most apps that need a sound recording function have it inbuilt.

You can see it in action if you use the stock messaging app, and select Attach < Record Audio
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
Just because you personally don't use a feature or feel that a feature is useless doesn't mean it's bloat, CM ROMs are very bloat free but they do contain certain things that you may not use and are free to remove but others may use them (tvout does kind of work) so removing them from the releases would prevent other users from using the features.
[Galaxy S II General] eradicator006:
I am having my first real issue with CM9. I have just noticed that my external sdcard is no longer showing up in CM9. Now here is the weird part; it shows up in CWM fine. I even did a nandroid backup to the card and it worked. I have tried formatting the sdcard through cwn and it still won't show in CM9. I just finished doing a full system format, data format and re-flashing cm9 stable. The sdcard still doesn't show up. Under storage in settings is where it's not showing. I click mount sdcard and it does the usual media scan but it never mounts. Even the 'mount' command from terminal shows it's not mounted.

Is anyone else experiencing this? I don't use my sdcard much so it's not a huge deal. It just would be nice if I could use it if I wanted to.

Thanks.
[Galaxy S II General] chrismalla:
I fully agree. But when it comes to tvout.apk it's another story. If it's not supported and not working, why leaving the file?
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
I can get it to work, sort of.
[Galaxy S II General] codeworkx:
Its working for videos but not for the ui.
[Galaxy S II General] chrismalla:
Yeah, I know. But ok, if that's enough of an argument, then leave it. I'm using my script to delete it anyway. :highfive:
[Galaxy S II General] hazwheel:
Stable is a nightly named stable
[Galaxy S II General] :
By useless I mean really useless, like the apks that are removed by google apps.

---------- Post added at 05:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:55 PM ----------

Actually, stable: nightly with all planned features + RC with most bug fixes.

Nightly + all planned features = RC. RC + most bug fixes = stable.

Is it possible to install stock video player in cyangenmod 9?
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
The Samsung one? Probably not if it requires Touchwiz framework elements. The only way to know for sure you could try installing it and see if it FCs, if it does, then it won't work.
[Galaxy S II General] chrismalla:
No, it's not. All apps developed by Samsung requires their framework. They have deliberately (or not) made their apps incompatible with AOSP.

Man you're quick! You are definitely spamming F5.
[Galaxy S II General] eradicator006:
I think I got it working. Turns out it was formatted to ntfs. I'm just trying to get my old laptop to boot up so I can format it to fat32 (only computer I have with an sdcard slot).

EDIT:

Well crap, computer says it is formatted to fat32 already. Strange. logcat on the phone says it's ntfs and it can't mount it. I'll try a full format of the sdcard on the computer and see if that works.

EDIT2:

Full format did the trick. What a strange problem that was.
[Galaxy S II General] r7s:
I'll repeat my question: can I truly recreate Lux sub-zero brightness levels by using CM9 brightness settings?

In response to LenAsh: sorry, I didn't mean to be rude.
[Galaxy S II General] LenAsh:
Either nobody knows, or nobody cares.

[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
I don't think so, only way to be sure would be to try it though.
[Galaxy S II General] liptonace:
I do not know about that. Maybe enough to copy (or port) the TV-OUT drivers from the Stock ROM to CM?
[Galaxy S II General] LenAsh:
Oh yeah, bet CM/Teamhacksung missed that one....
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
No

You don't think Codeworkx tried that?

Oh yeah, we missed to install them via the android driver installer.

For those who are interested in some background infos.

The android driver installer, short ADI, provides aosp compatible drivers for any hardware, phone, and variant. All hardware manufacturers are already using it. It's the solution to all of our problems.

Just install the tvout driver via ADI and run tvout.exe.
[Galaxy S II General] bluefa1con:
ADI is so awesome I took some drivers from megatron( he runs on jellybean too :eek:) and made them compatible with s2

Now my phone can turn into a robot and make me a sandwich too :D
[Galaxy S II General] winstonl:
six hours? how do you achieve that!
[Galaxy S II General] Spiralzz:
Well, it depends on a number of things. Each handset is unique, but there are several users who got a good combination of ROM and kernel and got amazing screen on time. Check this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=23081634

The guy used CM9 with siyah kernel when he proved 6 hours was possible.

[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
It's not CM specific, it happens on stock JB on both the Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 7, this is a Google+ app problem, putting it on the CM issue tracker won't get it fixed, contacting Google might.
[Galaxy S II General] hi2u2:

[Galaxy S II General] mirbeksm:
I think CM9 stable deserves own thread.

AFAIK, stable release is final and CM9 will be seeing no further updates.
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
Yeah, I've had it happen a couple of times on my Nexus on CM9, Stock JB and CM10, I believe it's the app, it started happening after the last update. Been reported by others in various threads too.

Bugs deemed critical will still be fixed, the Galaxy Nexus is on it's 3rd 9.0.0 release due to bugs that came up with the original stable, you never know. You are correct that there will be no further nightly updates though.
[Galaxy S II General] tricky-tricky:

Hi guys,

I have an big issue with the stable version.

Yesterday I put the stable version, everything was fine until this morning.

Suddenly my phone got stock on lockscreen. No screen off, no unlock, nothing.

I performed a reset and after boot I got: Encryption unsuccessful and please reset factory your phone. I thoght maybe is something for the moment and I did another reset from power btn.

Was booting again and got stock in animation screen and after another reset its no longer starts again.

I removed the battery and also tried to charging it and nothing.

Is something I can do?? :|

Edit: could be this reason http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5WQ5HCoFiCk ?
[Galaxy S II General] htchd2sucks:
"could it be this reason":

extract from your link:...sent my phone to Samsung. The motherboard was dead.

How do you expect us to know that???

:confused:

What means it no longer start again? Do you mean it's now always black screen whatever you are trying?

Did you have "siyah"?
[Galaxy S II General] chrismalla:
Will never support TvOut either. It's broken and unsupported. Delete the file.
[Galaxy S II General] sissemen:
Yes, black screen whatever I am doing. Nothing else than Cyanogen9 stable version and ril xxki4.

Based on the described issues that lead to black screen could be SW? Could described situation lead to black screen?

Or, its a big probability that the motherboard crashed. This was the reason of the link.

Thanks.

[Galaxy S II General] chrismalla:
You sure your power button just isn't working? Try pressing it really hard. I strongly suggest you if you don't get it to work, to buy a usb jig that will force the phone into download mode when inserted. And from there, flash stock or CM9 resurrection.

[Galaxy S II General] sissemen:
I tried with another battery and nothing happens. Also I found that my battery looks "fat" :) my friends battery is flat and mine is "fat"(inflated).

Could be that motherboard crashed. Do you know, if motherboard will be replaced in service, still will be found that I flashed a custom rom? Will be the yellow triangle keept even after motherboard replacement?

Shouldnt have battery charging indicator at least when I try to charge it?
[Galaxy S II General] htchd2sucks:
How about you try something obvious... You put your friend battery in your device instead of your abnormal looking one?

That way you can remove "battery issue" from your "possible root cause list" ...

There's a tutorial and an application for removing the yellow triangle. I let you use the search function.
[Galaxy S II General] sissemen:
Have you read what I wrote?

"I tried another battery and nothing happened" and "And I also found..." this was an additional information.

And my question about triangle was not about how to remove it but...please read it again.
[Galaxy S II General] chrismalla:
If the Samsung staff can't turn the device on nor put it into download mode (using usb jig), then they are probably replacing the motherboard. They will never find out that you have rooted and played with your phone. But if they get in to download mode, you're done.
[Galaxy S II General] sissemen:
THANK YOU for your answer. This was my wondering.

I will try also with an usb jig, maybe I can fix it by myself.

My original Samsung battery was a little fat too. When my phone start die at 50% I have change it for an Anker one. I think (my supposition) original galaxy s2 battery are very crapped with poor manufacturing quality. I think in my mind that your battery has killed your phone mainboard... when a battery goes fat=defect end of life. This behavior happens with nimh battery for sure. So Samsung give only 6 months of warranty on gs2 battery... and sure I must wait my battery kill my phone.

EDIT: now with new battery I don't have any dropped % with reboot. I never calibrate the gauge chip with the new battery. Seems the battery is causing gauge chip crazy? For all that has gauge chip problem try with another battery to test.

[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
Probably (I never flashed any Samsung ICS versions, so I still have the GB bootloaders so I can't say 100% but I don't see why not), your signature says you have CM10 on your phone now, if your bootloader boots that it should boot CM9 just fine.

My friend have 4.0.4 stock with Siyah, I don't know which problems we will got if we flash CM9 in stock 4.0.4 with Siyah.
