Yeh i agree with u. There r to many arrogant people on this thread. Wat was ur question u asked matey
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
looks like emmc is mounted twice instead of sd card in most file managers and titanium backup.
[Galaxy S II General] aydc:
I've flashed countless CM9 nightlies, I've always used TB to restore my apps and settings, even when going from stock to AOSP, I've never had a single problem.

Just select batch-restore-restore missing apps with data.
[Galaxy S II General] iamsachin:
Seriously bro..telling you out of personal experience. Whenever I try a new ROM I go for fresh install without TB restore. :) ..Gives error free experience. Most ROM cooks recommend it.

---------- Post added at 10:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:02 PM ----------

Yes, but this inverts everything. It's like installing windows again in D drive and then trying to make all the C:\Program Files work. (stupid example I know :P)
[Galaxy S II General] donkeyhitman:
Yup, as long as you're not restoring system apps you should be alright.
[Galaxy S II General] r7s:
Yeah, but I didn't make backups (TB was crashing on my phone), I'll ask again: can I know just downgrade CM9 to, let's say, update-cm-9-20120402?

NVM, when I turn off "use internal storage", everything works fine, except of a few apps, I hope that it'll be fixed soon.
[Galaxy S II General] D79_:
Yeh same here, emmc is duplicated so now titanium back up thinks internal emmc is also sd card, very strange.
[Galaxy S II General] punshkin:
Hey,

does someone know how far the work on the Cyanogenmod 9 Theme engine is? :confused:

i see the icon in the settings every time and can't wait to play with it! :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II General] zoran123:
Are phones without external micro sd card affected with this new emmc\sd problem, and how to test it?
[Galaxy S II General] Spyr0s:
I did a clean install and Titanium backup reports emmc twice instead of reporting emmc and sdcard. Batch backup and restore works fine so i really don't care for what TB reports, also Google Music works fine. The only oproblem i faced was that i had to move the Navigon folder from SD card to emmc to avoid redownloading maps and base files.
[Galaxy S II General] iamsachin:
This was the first release with inverted configuration. I guess by next nightly these problems should be fixed.
[Galaxy S II General] D79_:
I wanna comfirm that all my apps still work perfect without any reformat or re installin the apps. Just minor TB confusion but other than that now ive got the grips of the new change all is good :)

Ps. Codeworkx pls dont change it bk lol
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
yeah, surely it would be fixed in the next build or cody will come up with some fix
[Galaxy S II General] codeworkx:
Delete the TitaniumBackup folders on both of your cards. ;-)

Also wipe the app data of tb.
[Galaxy S II General] shotta35:
There is no problem and it has been "fixed" - :) The apps are holding on to data currently stored which is different than what is available so your only soluition is to wipe the data as was already said.

If you don't want to do that then that's up to you. Reinstall Titanium and or file explorer and see it with current views. This is one of the issues that happens when you constantly upgrade. Your app expects X because that's how it was in previous version but when changes happen it doesn't dynamically update because it just use the info already stored when you first opened the App (on the old build).
[Galaxy S II General] D79_:
Check the screen shot below to see what my TB shows about the internal emmc and the sd card. Its no biggie for it to be there as i dont use a external sd card but would like to know why its doin it.

Ps ive erased all folder and cleared data and also re-installed TB and still does the same
[Galaxy S II General] iamsachin:
Exactly. The previous config might be creating issue for people.

For me, I just had to reset my PowerAMP folder. Rest of the apps are working fine :)
[Galaxy S II General] s_h_a_g_g_y:
Same here.
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
Not only TB, but file explorers like xplore shows the same

sd card is still accessible from root though :)
[Galaxy S II General] harrispo:
For the last couple of releases, I find myself unable to take screenshots. Anyone else have this issue?
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
screenshots works good. may be its time for you to make a full wipe
[Galaxy S II General] D79_:
Yeh screenshots also works fine here
[Galaxy S II General] confusedmuse:
Anyone else having issues with the compass? (going crazy)

Doesn't work with GPS Status & Toolbox and Navigon.

In Z-DeviceTest it shows N correctly but it's jittering.

Gyro sensor also doesn't work. Screebl randomly thinks it's out of range...

Tried to calibrate both but it didn't help.

...just before doing a factory reset for nothing. :o
[Galaxy S II General] Spyr0s:

Hm, TB is always a clean install because the app can't backup itself but i'll try the wipe folders option.

BLN work on 04/19 build ?
[Galaxy S II General] confusedmuse:
:confused: CM9 kernel doesn't support BLN. You should ask in Siyah thread...
[Galaxy S II General] brenopapito:
Oh, sorry!

Correting, Pulse notification work on last build?
[Galaxy S II General] GFXi0N:
I'm currently doing a full data wipe - reinstall + restore apps only with titanium backup (NOT RESTORING ANY SYSTEM APPS OR CONFIG)

There will be nothing on either storage devices: Only the backup folders corresponding to the apps..... no other rubbish....

I'll post the results.

Some of us have lots of apps already configured, or with some conversations or mails on them and we just don't want to lose all that data or the config... that's why a full wipe + install from google play all the apps one by one and configure them is NOT AN OPTION.
[Galaxy S II General] shotta35:
it says Pulse Notification LED in the changelog. Our phone doesn't have a LED therefore it's not even there anymore in display. It was left over from before but it shouldn't have been there anyways.

---------- Post added at 01:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:27 PM ----------

I just backed up SMS with MyBackup Pro and wiped everything, then installed then only restored SMS again then done. Didn't even let Google restore settings using the setupwizard, did it all manually. It's a pain in the butt but if you don't want to deal with things changing then don't install NIGHTLIES!
[Galaxy S II General] cull3n:
Are you guys using the stock kernel? My phone barely makes it though the day and apparently the Android OS (Kernel) is using 51% of the battery.

What could fix this? On CM7 it used to last around 50hrs.
[Galaxy S II General] confusedmuse:
Why noboby understands this... :confused:

It has used 51% of the consumed energy.

It's a relative value. The more other processes are running, the smaller the value of Android OS will be.

You'd have to worry if it uses more battery than the screen.

Edit: Can't express myself very well in english yet. Need more exercise. :o
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
Like confusedmuse said, if you don't do anything on your phone other than let it sleep with sync on AndroidOS is always going to be the highest process because its the only thing doing anything, on my test phone which sits around all day doing next to nothing I've seen upwards of 80% AndroidOS but this doesn't mean anything is wrong, it just means the screen was off, no other apps were doing anything, etc... it's not a problem.

Now, if your phone used to last 50 hours it means you are a fairly light user, which explains the android OS thing, if you are getting worse battery life now it likely means an app is doing something funky like syncing too much, or getting coarse location a lot, I suggest installing Better Battery Stats and checking it out, if a process is waking your phone up a lot it will also show higher AndroidOS since waking up and going back to sleep are kernel processes. As I've found, some apps hide their activities such as data transfer or location checks in kernel processes which show as wake locks such as 'multipdp'. Personally, with light use I can get 2-3 days out of it, before people jump on me thats very minimal use, normally i can easily get 12-14 hours but i'm still not playing music all day or playing cpu intensive games.
[Galaxy S II General] Julianocas:
Really high temperature, not a warm kitty...
[Galaxy S II General] Entropy512:
I get my information from my phone - In every firmware I've used, if you go into Settings->About->Battery Usage (or Settings->Battery on ICS), it reports 100% time without signal.

UNLESS you go into another menu within Settings first - I forget which one (maybe I'll nandroid over tonight) - If you go to that menu even once, the RIL starts reporting signal status properly.

One thing battery-life wise that MIGHT be an issue is that in ICS the wifi packet filters might not enable properly when the screen turns off - I need to do more investigation. This was a problem in XXKI3 and UCKK6 too, and probably XWKK5 as well. XWKL1 and later were fine. If this issue does exist on ICS (or at least CM9), some people will have fine battery life on wifi and others will have poor battery life depending on the type of traffic going over their wifi network. If you have a "clean" network you'll have great battery life on wifi. If you have a "dirty" network with lots of unnecessary broadcast **** going across it, then battery life may suffer. More details on this well documented issue including how to PROPERLY collect data on the issue are in my known battery drainers thread which was linked a few pages ago.
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
Yup, most games run the CPU and GPU at max levels, the phone is slim so there isn't a lot of space for heat reduction other than to move it to the outside of the case so it's gonna get hot, that's life.

---------- Post added at 01:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:49 PM ----------

Need to go to Settings->About Phone->Status first to get it to update, otherwise it sticks on it's previous value for ever in Battery Usage.

Hey, I did one yesterday just to find out minutes later about the swap xD

Didn't bug me a lot to do another one today, though.
[Galaxy S II General] shotta35:
Noticed that too, they were doing that from befor but now if you uninstall and reinstall you'll see it only show up under "App" with whatever app data you have will show up under "data" in that section. If you "Move to SD" however it will show up under USB Storage App for some reason :D

Just do a full wipe and then reload and you'll see all the apps showing up where they should be and not on "SD Card" anymore unless they have data there.
[Galaxy S II General] confusedmuse:
That would't bug me too...;)

But i just was finished setting up anything. :o

Whatever... i'll just consider setting up stuff as a hobby. :D

I'm well used to that through my windows pc anyway... :cool:

:D:D:D
[Galaxy S II General] shotta35:
Guess it depends if they using iPhone codes for Emoji or Softbank or is it another one? I forget, eitherway, the comments were that it'll work for X type but not Y types as the Emoji codes are different.

Hmm guess iPhones should work tho?

Flashed 0414 -> sensors back to normal.

Flashed Codeworkx 0419 build -> still normal.

Flashed 0419 official build -> crazy sensors.

[Galaxy S II General] cull3n:
I know I know, my mistake was using the word "using" instead of "consuming" - I know what the numbers mean.

I am a fairly light user, but I still did everything I needed to do, phone, camera etc. basically I'm just doing the same thing as before yet the battery is lasting half the time..

Hey guys, I did a search but no luck so far: I would like to replace the CM9 boot animation with the stock samsung one, without using a custom kernel. Does anyone have a corresponding bootanimation.zip file or even a flashable CWM zip? Would be much appreciated.

[Galaxy S II General] voigasma:
Brightness Sensor Reactiveness

I experienced the following behavior (CM9 20120419-NIGHTLY-galaxys2 via ROM Manager):

It takes about 5-6 seconds, until the display brightness is adjusted as reaction to changes in environmental brightness. The settings under display seem not to have any effect on this delay. When i take my smartphone out of my pocket on a sunny day, e.g. to check the time or missed calls, this delay can be quite uncomfortable. As far as i can remember, in CM7 this delay was much shorter.

Interestingly enough, when a sensor testing app (i tested "Sensor List", "Z-DeviceTest" and "My Android Sensors") is run in the foreground (in the testing mode for the environmental light sensor), this delay is reduced to about one second. I don't know how this delay is changed by these apps, but i think it might be sensible to adjust the default sensor delay in a similar way in CM per default, provided this is even possible.
[Galaxy S II General] iamsachin:
Download AudioManager from Play Store and increase "System Volume"

Alright. In short, compass is crazy for everyone. If I do a factory reset will it work, that's it?
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
This link goes to a bunch of open reviews, none of which are for GS2 and none of which have been merged, so I have no idea how to respond to your question.
[Galaxy S II General] confusedmuse:
No. Just tried. Can't be my phone. Codeworkx 0419 build doesn't has this issue. (a few pages back)

And i've just checked the checksum with ES file explorer. It's correct.

This build is a fail.
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
Fixes for this are in the thread, but doing them may affect your battery life in a significantly negative way.

Hi guys,

I had problem with sms delivery. Once it shows that sms is delivered, once it shows nothing but sms is delivered. Is it known problem? There was a guy reporting the same problem but noone answered him.

And some noob question. Is it strictly needed factory reset for the 0419? Am I asking because i had installed it and everything is working fine for me! Is there system issue that needs full wipe?
[Galaxy S II General] SGS2_:

[Galaxy S II General] Olli2k:
Same issue here. Car system TNS510.
[Galaxy S II General] gregman26:
Where is the fix please ?
[Galaxy S II General] Entropy512:
Either:

1) That fix didn't go into ICS (haven't tried yet - but there clearly was some parallel development)

or

2) Samsung "fixed" it by setting things up to "poke the RIL" on boot. So the RIL is still broken.

So the question then becomes, what did they do to "poke the RIL" to get it to start reporting?
[Galaxy S II General] Hairyhippy:
I am using the latest CM9 nightly and I have a question about the call log.

Today I made a few calls to the US (I live overseas). The numbers I dialled were not in my contacts and I used the dial pad. I noticed that in the call log the numbers have got the USA location information like the suburb and state. What the?

Where/When is it doing the lookup? Is it from database already on the phone or does it send my dialled numbers to some server on the internet for lookup?
[Galaxy S II General] fstof:

unfortunately i too have this issue

i did not do a full wipe though

i installed the build then flashed cache and dalvik cache like i always do

i want to ask you one question , i did install latest CM9 nightly , i did full wipe and factory reset. erse my whole phone.but when i installed rom manager did not let me get in download ROM cause it would say i need to install recovery , but the thing was i had installed recovery and i could get in it easily.but what happened i though i might want to flash recovery again with odin.thats what i did and it passed.but now my phone wont boot up , it comes till SAMSUNG logo with triangle and shut down. i dont know what does that mean :/

EDIT : i installed recovery for gingerbread... now i need to find new method for ICS , since i am using ICS. any little help ?
[Galaxy S II General] GFXi0N:
Wiped everything, even the internal and external cards

Copied only the backup folders (TitaniumBackup and sms backup and restore), flashed titanium backup from recovery... then did a wipe and reinstalled the rom.

Afterwards, installed titanium backup from recovery

Booted up, and did not sign into the google account.

Restore apps+settings NOT SYSTEM APPS OR SYSTEM SETTINGS

Add accounts manually.....

Everything seems to work just fine..... and for the first time noticed the touch sounds!!! LOL

Change it back to 240 when you want to download something from the market or there is a hacked version of the market floating around that allows you to download anything regardless of dpi, search around and you'll find it, i think it was even in this thread a few pages back.
[Galaxy S II General] shumo:
thanks for your reply

i did as you suggested but did not help

still in gps status the compas spins by itself like crazy :)

never had this issue

before i flash a new build i always do a nandroid backup so i went back to build 0414 and this problem is not present

oh well , i am sure that it will be fixed

i am curious though why this happens for some and not for all . perhaps it is an app or something that creates this :)

anyway ... not a big issue for me as i use maps or other gps apps only occasionally . i imagine it sucks for those that use the phone as a gps in their car . the needle spinning like crazy in maps is surely bad for them
