[Galaxy S II General] 4qu4rius:
you mean like tilting the screen to zoom ? I don't remember this was something they wanted to do. This is in the samsung rom is it ?
[Galaxy S II General] jcasares:
Not...

Issues

- Wi-Fi direct

- FM radio

- TV Out not working properly

- Slow UMS/MTP transfers

- Recent apps show up when you click the home button while screen is off (it shouldn't)

- Blueish color when using camera effects

- Notification bar 2G/3G network toggle not working

- Long wake up delay (Entropy512 wanted to reduce it)

- Music volume goes down when SMS is received and never returns to the previous level

- Crash when playing a search result through Music app (unneeded if Apollo is bundled)

- SMSC setup in some rare cases fail

No crashes so far with this new beta.

"Android Platform" eating my Battery

dear all,

note: My CM9 is setup in french, so I'm not sure about the exact namings in English mode

I have the feeling that "Android Platform" processes are eating my battery....

1) in parameters / Battery : I have usually 65% for "Android Platform" then 8% for GSM & calls, screen is only 5%

2) every night, I loose around 20% of battery... just sleeping

Does anyone had the same issue?

What could be the solution?

Ps: I'm using CM9 from 13/04 (I had the same issue will other versions) + baseband is LPS (same issue with LPR and KL1)

[Galaxy S II General] mcmazinho:
I have done tests with some roms as follows, charge the battery 100% and I will lay me down, (I sleep usually 6 hours) when you wake up see what percentage of the battery was drained during this period. All we've tested to date including the CM9 is usually drained 6%, is this normal?
[Galaxy S II General] FRLinux:
1% per hour ain't bad. Do you put the phone in flight mode or just wifi on?

[Galaxy S II General] Silent3sniper:
Siyah is obviously not final or anything, still, whatever disadvantages in terms of battery life there may be, BLN definitely makes up for it.

As been said you can't, Cerberus is much better anyway.
[Galaxy S II General] Entropy512:
Between the new kernel build system (which has a few kinks - wifi is teh broke on my I777 but that may be due to a mistake I made locally...) and the build servers getting relocated... yeah...

There's not going to be anything new for I9100 for a bit... I777 users will get NFC the next time a build succeeds, I9100P will need more work (to handle the fact that right now, I9100P runs the same builds as I9100, and I9100 doesn't have NFC.)

Yup. For example, for me, the AT&T UCKK6 modem always leads to heavy drain in weak signal areas for me. UCKH7 performs much better for me (at least in terms of battery) where I live.

Can't speak as to I9100 modems... But I'm still using the first modem ever released for I777.
[Galaxy S II General] BrandoHD:
Truth, UHLPE gets great signal across the board for me, all the other modems don't, I have not given much/enough attention to identify any battery drain between modems though

Excuse my ignorance, but what's Cerberus?
[Galaxy S II General] Duuuude:
This is what I got. :D

http://www.lmgtfy.com/?q=cerberus+android
[Galaxy S II General] GFXi0N:
An anti theft app:

In a nutshell: You install the app in your phone and get a cerberus account.

You login to cerberus web page with your account data and link the mobile to your cerberus account.

From the web app you can locate via GPS where the phone is, take pictures remotely and get them sent to your e-mail and even set that every time someone enters a wrong unlock pattern, the app takes a photograph with the frontal camera and send it to your mail....

You can make the phone talk something or remotely wipe itself in case it has been robbed.

Also, hide the app so noone can close it or uninstall it..... quite nice app......

Back to the subject: So, no builds for a while.... :(
[Galaxy S II General] Wezi:
Thanks dude, didn't realise CyanogenMods came with that

[Galaxy S II General] returnzer0:
If you never had any issues with wake locks before... then just to back to a previous builds? That's what most other people are doing.

I know for me specifically and a few others like mudferret, it's because the RIL crashes and gapps forever tries to sync after that, keeping it from sleeping.

There's no good solution to the RIL crashing yet other than using the builds that work.

Hey guys, Is it possible to integrate some Sammy apps if I copy the .apk/.odex from Sammy 4.0.3 into CM9 by changing its permission?

For example: AllShare and Samsung Apps.

I haven't tried it yet, so asking now in case this can be done. I would love to add some functionality back to use with my TV.

I know that it could cause the device to stuck at boot screen but I'm sure it is possible. Does it requires special framework compiled by Sammy to get this to work?

My external SD card (/mnt/emmc) is ext4 formatted and worked just great under CM7. However, now it is showing up as unformatted.

Any thoughts on why it is not working anymore?

Also, I'm having difficulties finding anything related to the "Permission Management" (which I miss terribly) and the "Cyanogenmod" settings that were under CM7. Would I safely assume that they are no longer present for the moment?

Thanks.

SMS not working

Hey guys,

I done a search but every term I used didn't really return results similar to my problem.

I have just flashed 01122012 on a totally wiped phone. (data reset, format cache, dalvik and system directories)

I can make calls and receive sms's but I have just realised, I can't send sms's. No problem I thought, "I'll just go back one build. Wiped the phone again, flashed 01112012-2. Same problem, can't send sms's (receiving is ok)

Hrmmm, I'll go back to 01062012 and see what happens. Wiped phone again, flashed and still the same problem. I personally started using CM9 from 01062012 build and then just flash the new builds as they were released over the top up to 01122012. Up until I decided to start with a fresh install, the phone was working fine. (Or at least I think so)

I even restored a nand backup I had of 01062012 (in which sms'ing was working fine when I created the nand) and I still can't send sms's.

I'm assuming the problem is a RIL? or a MODEM? (But I'm using different modems with each build) or something else on the phone that doesn't get wiped.

Sorry for the essay as well, I just wanted to make sure I show my "problem" is different from the others I'm reading so I don't get flamed for being a "noob!"... "that's a known problem! can't you read!"

Edit: had a thought... Bootloader?
[Galaxy S II General] boggsterman:
I have had the same problem since day 1 of using any of the CM9 builds. Unlike you however, i am actually a noob so i have no idea what's causing it. It does however say that this is a known issue in the wiki:

http://teamhacksung.org/wiki/index.php/Experimental:GT-I9100:Known_issues

Luckily i don't need to send too many sms so i have just been patiently waiting for this to get fixed... It does however seem that it might be a long wait! Many users are not getting this problem so i was under the impression it could have something to do with the network i'm on. Now that you mention bootloader though, my recovery set-up is totally screwed up (somehow i have what appears to be two different recoveries) and that might have something to do with it. I have no idea. might try loading up stock GB and starting afresh to see if that does anything.
[Galaxy S II General] ole12:

[Galaxy S II General] shotta35:
RC = Release Candidate. Lots of **** is still broken so it can't be a release candidate just yet. During beta you fix everything, RC you fix minor bugs that pop up.

Also even if SGS2 was PERFECT doesn't mean CM will be RC yet as it not just our device that counts, the rest of the tree needs to be up to snuff too.
[Galaxy S II General] Entropy512:
Perfect example of this: Enter Settings, click on Themes.
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
The first CM7 RC for SGS2 was pulled for stability issues and bugs, in it's current state CM9 is good but it has more bugs and stability issues than a release that the CM team initially thought was RC ready, so it will likely be a while before this makes it to RC status, plus as the poster above said RC status isn't just for one device it's for all the devices in the master tree.

Whats the best modem from the first post. I need another modem as my reception keeps droppin and was told a new modem will prob sort it out
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
Modems work differently for different networks and different locations, a modem that might be good for one person may not necessarily be good for you even if you are on the same provider and are roughly in the same physical location, the best thing you can do is download a couple, give each a try and see which one ends up the best for you.

I've been using LPS which isn't in this particular thread, but it's linked elsewhere in the SGS2 forums and it has been working well for me, prior to that I used a KG2 modem for quite a long time as the new modems never seemed to work as well. This is my experience, yours will almost certainly be different.
