Same here. It gets annoying after a while. :p

I don't think so. With the camera app in the GB ROM, I made various videos and they are .mp4. They were recorded at 720p and I downloaded them directly from my phone without any conversion.

On another order of things, it would be nice to have the option to write to external SD card in the camera. I also have a 32Gb card that would be wonderful for long recording... not that the battery will last that much. :(

Thanks for the information!

I was running update-cm-9-20120330-NIGHTLY-galaxys2-signed that believed had the fix, so I applied update-cm-9-20120330-CODEWORKX-galaxys2-signed and then kernel-cm-9-3.0.25-20120331-galaxys2 to be more up to date. Went to an open place and waited for a GPS fix. After a couple of minutes I got one. :)

So, it seems the changes were applied after 30 nightly or the new place I tried the fix was better than the first one. I'm inclined to the first one as I only got 2 satellites at most before and now I got 6. I attached a screenshot of the exact moment I got the fix. :eek:

Again, thanks for the info!

guys what modem do you guys recommend? specially if anyone is from the UK and using 3 network. Using LPQ and although it seems alright it is not the best..

is it me or the camera in CM9 is more yellow-ish compared to the stock samsung ones?

i wonder if its just the preview or its the actual picture.

i've changed my screen mode to dynamic to movie and it still seems yellow-ish in camera
[Galaxy S II General] seekertbs:
Anyone?? :(
[Galaxy S II General] Fokas.:
Been using LPR since it came out.. It's pretty good no problems never lost signal like I used to on lpq
[Galaxy S II General] shotta35:
As others have said - just a simple reboot will work. :)

On Demand has nothing to do with it - actually it's set to OnDemand by default now again anyways so you are wasting time. All you did was the reboot and that's what fixed it.

[Galaxy S II General] titooo7:
Not true, the videos I recorded on gb and ics samsung roms are mp4 (at least on my SGSII).

If I'm not wrong CM roms always record video on 3gp. If there isn't any auqlity loss I really don't mind if it's mp4 or 3gp.

Could anyone confirm that the quality of HD recorded videos is as good as the one of samsung roms?

I read somewhere that the quality of the pictures taken is still a little bit lower than the one of samsung roms, so I would like to know if the same thing happens with the video recording.
[Galaxy S II General] trashed78:
Looks like the spot i have, the pink spot. In stock rom yesterday there was no pink spot.
[Galaxy S II General] T1beriu:
I see you are using Juice Defender, that translates into 30-40%+ Android OS battery usage. I had the same issue, but then I stopped using Juice Defender and then battery usage was greatly improved. It's doing a lot more harm than good to custom roms/kernels.

Try disabling it for a day or two and you will notice the difference immediately.
[Galaxy S II General] tyxiu:
Me too, the same problem.
[Galaxy S II General] GuestK00150:
o.k. after flashing the latest codeworkxs 30th build and the latest testkernel, nba.tv app works! GREAT!!!

So only build in BLN backlight notification missing for me :cool: THANK you so much!!!
[Galaxy S II General] lyndonguti:
clear data in camera application..not in cwm

go to settngs-> apps-> all -> camera -> force atop it and clear data
[Galaxy S II General] seekertbs:
Already done that.::(
[Galaxy S II General] shotta35:
For the 3GP issue I think you can just change it to MP4 and it should play anyways as it uses the H264 codec.

as for GPS - You always got 6 Satellites or more - the fix was just to enable Apps to know they are getting more as the extra information wasn't being sent to them. GPS always locked on though and it's impossible to get a lock with only "2" sats as everyone knows. So it's more of a visual fix :p
[Galaxy S II General] frkazid:
tried the codeworkx build + latest kernel?

no problems here...
[Galaxy S II General] Okur90:
With the previous patch, it used to work indoors so I had tried it indoors. I went outdoors now and tried it there, get a lock after about 10 seconds. =)
[Galaxy S II General] bouaroudj:
no it doesn't for all flash videos. May be it's hardware codec related?

[Galaxy S II General] shumo:
what latest kernel are you refering to ?

i don't see any download link in the OP
[Galaxy S II General] Okur90:
I am on O2 UK and using XXLPR. The thing is I got the radio.tar image from the official O2 ICS ROM. I think the operators test different radios and include the best/latest in their official OTA. I have very good signal. If I were you, I would wait for the official release from 3. Someone will put it up on XDA along with the radio and kernel as a separately flashable file. You can than download the radio either as a flashable .zip or .tar (usually it is a .tar) and use CWM (for .zip) or ODIN (for .tar). Until then, LPQ or LPR should be good. =)

Mirror to Codeworkx latest kernel

http://www.sendspace.com/file/2ebjkb

Link above is for those who are asking for the latest kernel released by Codeworkx version 31032012

Enjoy and if it helps you guys then hit that thanks.:) This version of kernel is the best by the team so far. Touch and scrolling works like a treat

can someone confirm if they have 1080p zooming? I dont and is really perplexing me...
[Galaxy S II General] diegoms89:
Actually, i'm using apex launcher, and as you said, no problem there...

But any program, even status bar its really bad, even worse than was on 03/09 build. But hey, at least for me, EVERYTHING else its workin, so, can't complain that much
[Galaxy S II General] rafwer:
The video recording works great in the latest revision, cleaning the application data of the camera zoom also works for me, but the flash does not work in video, but in their photo. This only happens to me?
[Galaxy S II General] MistahBungle:
Yep. Works. Had to fiddle with it tho. Initially didn't work, went back to 720 which worked, then flicked it back to 1080 & voila !, zoom works.
[Galaxy S II General] frkazid:
cleared data and have NO zoom at 1080p. zoom working on 720p and 480p.

edit: went from option to option and now zoom works at 1080p :confused::what::D
[Galaxy S II General] jcasares:
I don't think so.

Well, the issue is that I couldn't get a lock and GPS Status app was showing only 2 satellites available. Now I got the fix and I see more satellites.
[Galaxy S II General] SRQ642:
Interesting, because on the stock Samsung ICS roms (LPQ/2/3) I get this when I'm trying to zoom at 1080p:

[Galaxy S II General] FRLinux:
Nope, there are 2 GPS issues, first is displaying the wrong number of satellites, this one is fixed. Second is a lock issue which is fixed when I apply the GPS patch.
[Galaxy S II General] miketwn:
thanks..same situation as you.
[Galaxy S II General] frkazid:

[Galaxy S II General] alangrig:
For those who asked about video recording format being set by default to 3gp, you can change it in file /system/etc/media_profiles.xml for example to mp4, as I've did and from now you will have extension mp4

here is example:

<EncoderProfile quality="high" fileFormat="3gp" duration="30">

<Video codec="h264"

bitRate="20000000"

width="1920"

height="1080"

frameRate="30" />

Just change red marked 3gp to mp4.

I have chosen for a patern to unlock my phone.

But when playing music it's a little messed up.

I get half of the album art above the patern and the pattern remains black.

Don't know if this is intended, but it looks weird to me. :)

This is the first time I installed this rom, but what happens when a new nightly is released.

Can I just flash it via recovery and remain all my apps and settings?

Or can you just use the built in update to update to a new version?
[Galaxy S II General] seekertbs:
One more thing. If i actually play the video that i recorded and then press back and after that press the camera, no FC. The FC just happens when switching directly from video CAM to camera. I reallyDon't Get it. Andy clues guys??

trying to figure this out:eek:...did you go from the 330 nightly and apply the camera fix patch or did you flash the CODEWORKX 330 build on OP?

Flashed Kernel 3.0.25. Gps fix: Now I can see 9 satellites from inside my home.
[Galaxy S II General] TecQuality:
have you installed the new kernel over the latest nightly of the latest codeworkx's?
[Galaxy S II General] spirouzbe:
I also got zoom not working on 1080p. Working fine on 480 and 720.

Came from 30 nightly to Codeworkx CWM build with 3.0.25 kernel.

Did wipe cache/dalvik, also wiped app cache and restarted. I navigated into options as well but it didn't change anything.

Camera app also FCed when going from video to photo mode.

EDIT : After changing options in face effects zoom is working on 1080p ...
[Galaxy S II General] frkazid:
i was on 30nightly + camera patch + 31kernel.

then i flashed the 30codeworkx + 31 kernel. zoom worked only on 720p. then i changed res to 480p and went from option to option (faceeffects, flashlight etc.). then zoom worked with 480p aswell. did the same with 1080p and now it works :what::D

edit: and i got no FC when changing to photo after i took a video. with this config gps works, flashvideo works, camera and video works. now its complete for me :-)
[Galaxy S II General] jcasares:
Yes, I'm doing that every day. Just clear cache and dalvick cache before flashing the new firmware.
[Galaxy S II General] Psyastro:
On codeworkx 20120330 without gps patch...
[Galaxy S II General] spirouzbe:
Same here !
[Galaxy S II General] miketwn:
thanks buddy...the answer was so easy. Did the same as you..and it is working...;) (some thanks coming your way);)

TO make it work, key is go to 480p first and then play with zoom and then go to 1080p and it should work..But this has to be repeated if you exit the camera app...
[Galaxy S II General] shumo:
lol what a "debug" mode :)) i can confirm it worked for me too

but ... i was only abe to zoom untill i closed the camera . after i restarted the camera the same issue

so ... this happens when using the 30 codeworks build but no when using 30 nightly + camera patch ?

3.0.25 3/31 kernel working good if you ask me :) Browsing still smoother in the stock browser for sure. One thing I noticed now is that it's smoother in Facebook app newsfeed for whatever reason. It's more responsive to the scroll.

FYI - Yes I've gone back to standard 3/30 then flashed 3/30 plus 3/31 and the change is instant.

FYI2 - I always do a full wipe and restore NOTHING when I switch builds.

Bluetooth pairing

Hi,

Yesterday was my first day on CM9 since camera works, and I am so happy to have CM again (last time was on CM6 on Spica!) so smooth and already stable to my use.

I had a question though, about bluetooth. Some people like me want to connect specific devices to their smartphone via bluetooth (the first example is a wiimote, in order to play some games with it using the app "wiimote controller"), but encounter issues due to Stock firmwares limitations. Looking at several forums, Samsung roms are well known for having this issue (it is asking for a pin number to pair the device, wheras no one has to be entered or even exist, then leading to an error message whatever the pin code is).

A small study about the compatible device AND their firmware is published on their website (android.ccpcreations.com/wiicontroller/wc-compatibility, no SGS2 figuring in these lists unfortunateley) and show that any kind of device with an AOSP Rom like CM could be able to pair the device without any problem.

However, on CM9 (20120330), the problem is still there. Do you think it's a kernel related issue, or that it comes from the firmware ? I definitely don't know why it happens, but is there something to do ?

Thanks, and keep the work up, this is yet so great as it is today...

[Galaxy S II General] Arashdn:
Hi ,

Where Camera patch can be found ?
[Galaxy S II General] shotta35:
I'm guessing the reason this "works" is that the GUI isn't updating when you change the settings inbetween resolution changes. If you change from SD to HD the screen doesn't change to show it's in HD mode so some of the GUI options for SD will still be enabled. Once you exit out and come back in with the screen in HD mode, the GUI will be loaded in that mode too and therefore block the stuff that don't apply.
[Galaxy S II General] shumo:
nope still the same issue

i am now on the 30 codeworks build

i will flash now the 30 nightly build and apply the camera patch manually

lets see if there is a difference

[Galaxy S II General] spirouzbe:
I confirm that when closing camera app and reopen it zoom does not work anymore on 1080p

To reproduce FC of camera app:

Open camera app

Go to video 1080p

Start recording

Stop recording

Go to photo mode

Camera app FC

Its happening on both portait and landscape mode.

Phone calls coming in on the latest nightly with latest radio?
[Galaxy S II General] shotta35:
Seems i started having this too. Not sure though as my icons were still blue and it seemed as if Google Talk was still working but not sure there. It's not the radio as i'm using LP1 with the older build like you -1 and it works just fine again.

Rebooting always fixed it but after a few minutes it would stop. It's just weird because all day long (since about 2-3pm when it first dropped) i used data then at like 4:30 i noticed the issue. After that only reboots would fix it but then it failed again after 5 mins. Probably a RIL issue as i was at work all day so same tower. Then as soon as I moved (went to doctors appointment) it started doing that. Calls worked just fine however. :confused:

[Galaxy S II General] RageO:
Same here...thing is, kp8 modem has this issue also now. But i used that modem in an earlier build for some days without any problems. So i'm not sure if it's kernel related...
[Galaxy S II General] :
Are your respective carriers NITZ? I called my carrier a while back, they said "yes, we're NITZ" after I told them what it was, but my experiences on builds prior to the RIL being fixed don't make it clear. Data, and signal, were awesome, the only time I didn't have signal was for a brief period in the middle of the night (every night); observed by looking at my battery history. NITZ related, maybe (?). In the limited info I could find on NITZ it's unclear on how it's applied; some carriers may "call on Nitz first" while others call on it last and use other means to determine time/network ID first. Such a simple concept, but there's likely much, much more to it making it a convoluted mess.

here's a logcat
[Galaxy S II General] shotta35:
I was just wondering that, the updated kernel is f00king sweet. Been more than 8hrs now and still "feels" better than the other one. I've switched back and forth to test and definitely noticed a change.
[Galaxy S II General] shumo:
so the result

flashed 30 nightly build , rebooted into recovery and flashed the camera patch

still , 1080 cannot zoom

flashed the latest kernel , cleared cache and dalvik cache ... still same problem

tried fix permissions , same

i did notice the following :

if i exist the camera whist the video is set on 720 , and then restart the zoom works even if i switch to 1080 . if i exit the camera in 1080 and restart ... then the camera will start in 1080 and zoom is not working . more to that the video seems to be a little zoomed like about 25%

so as a fix i find only to exit the camera with video mode set on 720 so the next time i start it i can have zoom correctly

i did not try a full wipe . think it makes a difference ?
