Flashed the latest build (test build by codeworkx).

No issues here so far - BULP6 baseband, CM stock kernel.

I was wondering if it makes a difference when flashing from one nightly to another:

FIRST wipe cache/dalvik and THEN flash the build.

OR

FIRST flash the build and THEN wipe cache/dalvik.

I am finding different instructions everywhere... just wondering?
[Galaxy S II General] Nexu$:
Now that the new servers are up, are we to see nightlies every day? I am impatient to try the long list of updates that are waiting in the changelog. Do you think RC1 is coming soon (hence the delay)? :D

Thank you, CM team for making my phone superb!
[Galaxy S II General] frkazid:
here is a mirror for codeworkx' 19th build, mediafire was very slow :-/ :

@lunatic:

first flash, then wipe
[Galaxy S II General] CruX.:
CM has no ETAs and I personally think that it is going to take some time. As someone pointed our earlier, our device is kinda working right now, but there have to be some huge changes to cm for it to be considered as an rc (System-Settings->Designs for example, thx Entropy :)).

Also, the list of updates is not going to change a whole lot on your phone because most of the stuff does not apply to our device anyways... just be patient :)

Greetings

Edit: Ouh yeah: An RC is just another nightly which is considered to be stable... so you're good to go in updating to newer nightlies from time to time (most of them work great anyways, thanx to our great cm-team!)
[Galaxy S II General] Nexu$:
I was not trying to violate the first rule of CM-Club "No ETAs" but was curious if the new servers have impact on the flashoholics amongst us :p

You are absolutely correct, the devices are borderline amazing as they are :cool:
[Galaxy S II General] lunatic54:
Hm, okay - was just wondering, because in the SGS2 wiki it says it the other way around...

Maybe it doesnt make a difference at all? First flash and then wipe or first wipe and then flash...
[Galaxy S II General] frkazid:
i thought there will be no files that are put in (dalvik)cache while flashing.

then it would be whether or not to wipe first or after^^
[Galaxy S II General] MilesTEG1:
Thanks :D

And, I'm not crying :p

I'm happy to see that sdcard and emmc are now in right place.
[Galaxy S II General] Grimbolt:
Same here - great work and no reason to cry at all!
[Galaxy S II General] iamnotkurtcobain:
Is it me or is build 19 laggier? No complain. Just a question. Did no full wipe...
[Galaxy S II General] frkazid:
AND DONT FLASH ANY OTHER KERNEL!

Wifi would crash and some Cifs.

The Buildbot builds its own Kernel and uses some files in /system/lib/modules.

While the Kerneldeveloper haven't changed this please stay at Stock-CM9-Kernel!

Question : is somebody has a md5 checksum for the last codeworks release update-cm-9-20120419-CODEWORKX-galaxys2-signed.zip ?
[Galaxy S II General] bluefa1con:
just wondering how long does it take to build a cm9 rom on your i7

codeworkx
[Galaxy S II General] codeworkx:
16 mins for android + kernel

10 mins for uploading
[Galaxy S II General] nsmart:
Did I get this right:

If I install testbuild 04-19 then emmc and sdcard are swapped and the installed apps won't find their settings/data anymore? So I have 2 options:

1) copy the settings/data from internal to external sdcard

or

2) switch the mount-points in storage configuration

If I want settings and data from apps to be stored on the internal sdcard, I have to switch mount points. Is that correct or do I have any other options ?

Hello guys,

Here is my report after 24 hours (seems that the Android OS problems only occur while in plane mod) :

http ://imageshack.us/g/259/screenshot2012041910001.png/ (I don't have the permission to post links, sorry for this)

If someone could tell me what the problem is... :)
[Galaxy S II General] Kristion:
yes, it's a little confusing, tried the 2nd option but I can't make the gallery to show up my previous photos. Any help please? :)
[Galaxy S II General] saltmine:
What? You lost ~8% over an ENTIRE DAY and you say there is a problem?
[Galaxy S II General] Kamlol:
I lost 8% because I didn't use my phone at all (only 4-5 messages) without data and plane mod for the night.

And yes, there is a problem with Android OS which should not be that high.

Before plane mod : sleep was the first drain source.

After the night : Android OS was the first drain source.

There is obviously a problem and I'd like to fix it :)
[Galaxy S II General] nutmegy:
it is not a problem... if the power consumption lets say is 2 and Android OS uses 1.. thats still going to show 50%... it is just relative percentages... not a problem at all, only a problem if the drain is high and Android OS is still 50% THEN it's an issue..
[Galaxy S II General] lunatic54:
What is supposed to be the problem?

Looks fine to me :)
[Galaxy S II General] Mixy:
People really need to go back to math classes and learn a thing or two about percentages.

[Galaxy S II General] jerryhou85:
Change Iafac095f: galaxys2: set vold.post_fs_data_done during boot for device encryption

This seems very nice. :) And the headset volume issue seems really need more time. :D
[Galaxy S II General] Kamlol:
Ok, I'll try to make it easy.

The energy drain is lower when NOT in plane mod because the only drain is from sleep (when you don't use your phone ofc).

While in plane mod the main drain is from Android OS which is not logical at all because I don't use it.

I don't know what is hard to understand :

Day => 35% sleep, 20% android OS...

After night => Android OS 37%, sleep 26%....

You must see that there is an increase of the drain from Android OS.

[Galaxy S II General] frkazid:

[Galaxy S II General] ermacwins:
UK users, what baseband is recommened?
[Galaxy S II General] Kamlol:
I prefer to find the problem than just avoid it. Avoiding problems each time won't help to progress.

I just don't like to have my phone activated while sleeping.

I asked someone from an other android forum to try the plane mode and he reported either a problem with an higher drain than in normal mode.
[Galaxy S II General] julianjm:
SDCard/emmc

Can anyone point me how sdcard/emmc work after 0419 build.

I moved all my files to my computer. Now i'm trying to find out how apps use the int/ext flash.

OI Filemanager uses the SDCard icon for /mnt/emmc. /mnt/sdcard is shown as a normal folder.

Cammera uses /mnt/emmc for storing pics I take.

"Move to SD" uses /mnt/emmc/.android_secure...

Is this how it is supposed to work?

I have it unchecked under "systemsettings -> storage -> storage configuration" (never touched it).

Julian.
[Galaxy S II General] CruX.:
I use airplane mode all the time, at least since 2w.

Drains 0-1% while im sleeping... same than with cm7 I'd say.

Greetings
[Galaxy S II General] Kamlol:
Ok, so you don't have any problem with it.

In my case, it drains 3-4%, just like when not in plane mode.
[Galaxy S II General] codeworkx:
this page has nothing to do with us.

not done by cm team.
[Galaxy S II General] codeworkx:
that's exactly how it works.

your internal storage is still the main storage since some users don't use a external card.
[Galaxy S II General] davemuir:
I have been using LPS.

Seems a bit heavier on the battery usage, but it's the only modem that gives me signal when I'm in my kitchen, which is good enough for me!

LPR and LP6 were also fairly good for me.
[Galaxy S II General] furyau:
I spent a lot of time trying to pin point my drain issues.

It turned out to be LPS modem.

Even though thats the offical modem that comes out for my network provider with ICS.

LPR and others drain half as fast!!

So anyone with issues, check your modem first, not last....like me.

16 - 20hrs - LPS

26 - 30hrs - LPR
[Galaxy S II General] saltmine:
Are you seriously complaining about losing 3% battery overnight?

You must have something running in the background, not related to CM9 at all. No need to post in this thread.
[Galaxy S II General] nutmegy:
to be honest it depends which carrier you are on..

I am using NELP2 which is used by Stock 3 mobiles..
[Galaxy S II General] shr33kant:
I must say, the following new change on the changelog site look very nice :)

galaxys2: use opensource sensor hal, new auto brightness values (android_device_samsung_galaxys2)

Nice work :D
[Galaxy S II General] lunatic54:
Is it just me or is Auto brightness not working right in the current build?

Could hardly read my screen today, because it wouldnt adjust...

Or is this still a general issue?
[Galaxy S II General] Kamlol:
A normal night in plane mode is between 0 and 1% (like the other guy in a previous post), just like I had in 2.3.6. I never had any problem before installing CM9 and I have almost no applications installed yet (only 2-3 mandatory things).

I posted my report : http ://imageshack.us/g/259/screenshot2012041910001.png/ and some experimented guys should be able to point out the problem.

And yes, when something is not normal, I try to find what is the problem. It is maybe not your case ;)
[Galaxy S II General] nutmegy:
Ok... so what you need to do next is to use something like better battery stats (it will specify the specific process that is causing the drain) and even CPU spy to see if it going into deep sleep...

Just stating Android OS is not going to be enough to decide what it is going to be.. There is obviously something running overnight causing it not to sleep.
[Galaxy S II General] hIdd3N-:
There is no AOS bug in 4.0.4 and AOS is not directly linked to mobile data and wifi. If you have heavy background sync activity and you switch to plane mode then of course it drop.

if you have no background sync the drop will be significantly lower. Now stop this. your battery usage is fine.

this was discussed a bazillion times now. some people are never happy.
[Galaxy S II General] digeddydogg:
LPR is good for me on Orange network.
[Galaxy S II General] julianjm:
But the setting (which I have unchecked) reads:

[Galaxy S II General] digeddydogg:
Has anyone noticed that with the latest codeworkx build. When charging the battery actually decreases. Also when plugged in. And on the battery screen in settings it says its plugged but not charging.

Edit: right so if anyone is having this problem, I fixed it by turning off phone, removing battery for a minute or so, reboot into recovery wipe battery stats just to make sure (I know taking the battery out has this effect anyway) and then reboot. Let pone completely start up and load all your settings etc.; ug phone and check in battery screen for "charging AC"

I had problems with the previous modem wat i think was LPB so i changed it to LPS and it seems to be fine so far, but i also downloaded LPR just incase i have issues with LPS, im also with orange uk :)
[Galaxy S II General] digeddydogg:
Good work. Haven't tried LPS but that only really cos LPR gives me signal in my house where i normally don't get any at all. Not sure about the battery life cos after a few days I flash a new build and the battery has to settle again with the new rom, but for signal its awesome as far a I'm concerned.
[Galaxy S II General] D79_:
Oh cool yeh just checked, ill keep that in mind, cheers
[Galaxy S II General] digeddydogg:
Yeah its quite an obvious "fix". I know someone at some point is going freak out about it though and start demanding answers.
[Galaxy S II General] D79_:
Mine changed when i just restarted my fone, i didnt need to wipe battery stats.
[Galaxy S II General] jcasares:
So, with the change there is no need to relocate data or take in account that new locations might be needed for some applications that backup or store data to Internal SD?
[Galaxy S II General] espenfjo:
Not sure how it works in CM7.

But it will be somewhat the same.

The HAL is based on the same source.
[Galaxy S II General] digeddydogg:
Yeah tried that a few times and it didn't work. Took my battery out and put it back in and it was still bugged. Once I took out the battery for a bit longer and wiped stats it was all good. Happened a few builds back as you said, when I was in the car charging it. But when I got home and plugged into the wall it was fine so I thought it was my car charger. Evidently its a minor bug that needs to ironed out at some point.
[Galaxy S II General] ermacwins:
Im using LPS and it did seem to give better phone reception but the internet is slow. Might try LPR. What is the newest Baseband?
[Galaxy S II General] nsmart:
How can it be that internal storage is still the main storage, if the names of the mount-points get switched ?

Meaning the apps saved they data to mountpoint "sdcard" (previously mapped to internal sd). When mountpoint "sdcard" is now mapped to external sd, the apps are looking for their data on external sd !?

Do I misunderstand something and do the apps still write their data to internal sd, no matter if mountpoints are switched ?
[Galaxy S II General] 4qu4rius:
Hello all,

Do we know if CM9 supports the EAP-SIM protocol ? It's not on AOSP, that's for sure, and device makers have a choice wether to implement it or not on their device, but I couldn't find any settings in the current nightly.

Basically, the EAP-SIM protocole allows your phone to automatically connect to a wifi hotspot instead of 3G if such is available. My operator has a uge network of wifi hotspot maintained by their landline adsl clients (which in turn benefit from any other guy's hotspot when they're out of home), and it seems this operator now wants to use this network to decrease the load on its new and not yet robust 3G network.
[Galaxy S II General] codeworkx:
Just 4 info:

Don't try to flash any custom kernel while using the upcoming nightly.

You'll loose wifi, fmradio and cifs if you do.

Kernel cookers like GM (syjah) have to update their updater-scripts to replace the kernel modules at /system/lib/modules because they've been moved out of the ramdisk due to the inline kernel building changes we've made.
[Galaxy S II General] digeddydogg:
Is the new nightly the same as your test build?
[Galaxy S II General] D79_:
My internet is fast for me usin LPS, i cant say about battery performance yet as ive not used LPS long enough but will update later :)
[Galaxy S II General] codeworkx:

Here's my full battery update. Used the phone till it died.

14 hours on battery

4 hours and 46 minutes of screen time

Mostly just browsing web etc....texting. No voice calls.

Anyways, best battery i've experienced yet with CM9. Pretty sure i could squeeze out 5 hours of screen time if i wasn't in places with no cell coverage for extended periods of time. I also have Wi-fi on all the time but it helps for me because most places im at have wi-fi.

This is on the latest january 12th build with XXKI4 modem. I tried LP1 and all the ICS kernels beforehand and they all drained battery.

That's probably dependant on your carrier and their APN settings.

Battery improvements, 01122012

I've been playing with different builds reviewing posts trying to get rid of the huge battery drain on the 01122012 version of CM9.

01062012 does not have a battery drain issue for me, however it isn't as smooth and not being able to turn down the in call volume frustrates me as I use the phone a lot.

With 01122012, I have found if I use Titanium backup to freeze TVOut, go to running apps and stop the media scan and finally stop DSPManager; I get no more partial wakelocks and only a little battery drain. Overnight it loses about 8% with 2g, wifi enabled.

AndroidOS runs at about 40%.

The phone deep sleeps most of the time when not in use.

So not perfect but to help those that use this as a daily like me, I hope this is useful.

Most of this info is available elsewhere, I just thought I would consolidate this and post my own experiences. :)

You just have to check apps individually, some apps would not have an issue with the change and some will, apps that are hardcoded to dump stuff to the "sdcard" would now dump to your removable storage instead of the internal storage e.g HC kTool

You may have to re-configure apps like PowerAmp that would be looking for your music Library in the wrong place, also an app like Titanium Backup MAY have to be re-configured

Most other apps would not have an issue with the change
