Thanks for coming forward to corroborate my experience. I never had this problem on Gingerbread. Was on VillainROM 3.0

Oh well. Hopefully more people will see our posts and corroborate my finding(s). :)
[Galaxy S II General] dsingh300:
Hello everyone. I'm just wondering what the best way is to get the latest nightly. I see that there are options in Settings>About Phone>CyanogenMod Updates to update to the latest nightly or the latest stable build. What is the difference between updating through settings and updating manually by flashing in CWM? Will updating through settings wipe data?

Thanks for your help in advance and sorry if this has been asked before.
[Galaxy S II General] Reno29:
I remember when I uses the 9.1 stable my quadrant score was the same but I never notice the steady 800 MHz, 2 weeks ago I used cm9 last nightly and my quadrants score was 3400, why don't try the last nightly and tell us what's happens , right now I'm using cm10 and my quadrant score is 3050. I always tink in benchmark Samsung rom is more efficient than cm.

I think is the same thing, cyanogenmod updates is relative a new feature, I always use it and for me is more easier than manual flash

So apart from having a smaller epeen what is wrong with your phone? Are you seriously posting this about a superseded ROM and hoping for an answer? How about look at the OP, use stock kernel and report an actual bug. :/
[Galaxy S II General] happily1986:
If you bother to learn how to read, you will notice that i was using the performance governor which is supposed to lock at the highest frequency.

Why, are you a troll or something? I am not even shouting out to team hacksung to get a look at this issue, just trying to get more people to come forward and corroborate my findings. Bugger off if you have nothing constructive to add.

and what's with the jibber jabber about CM9 being a superseded ROM? it is still in development!. superseded by what? CM10 hasn't even reached RC status.

Thanks. Maybe i will flash using the latest Nightly and see if i can reproduce this.

I am also facing this issue , its really annoying .. can someone give me a solution to this please :(
[Galaxy S II General] 0355:
I always used superuser until I decided to give a shot to super su so I installed it, then went to application management and cleared data and cache for superuser and tapped on "disable".

Immediately super su started intercepting root calls and all went well. Now I have to say that I feel good with super su and I'm not too keen to go back but.... If I would like to go back to superuser how would I have to do?

In application management there's no trace of the disabled superuser (but checking with an external app I found it still installed)...

Just flashed cm-9-20121202-NIGHTLY-galaxys2.zip and was on CM9 kernel. No problem with performance governor. Quadrant score also more normal about 3900.. I then proceeded to flash Siyah 5.0.1 and then the problem came right back. Seems to me Siyah kernel is the problem. :/

is it just me or does the newest build have a bug with contacts? When I select show my contacts in contacts from my gmail account. All my contacts show up. Before it was only contacts that had numbers that showed up. Anyone else experiencing this?
[Galaxy S II General] superleeds27:
Audio on latest nightly is amazing!
[Galaxy S II General] GalaxyGusta:
Why would it be amazing? No changes to it in changelog
[Galaxy S II General] superleeds27:
It seems to be louder than when I previously used CM9. Maybe 3-4 months ago.

Hwcomposer broken in cm 10 and 10.1 too buggy. That's why some people are still here
[Galaxy S II General] bluefa1con:
Hwcomposer is not broken in cm10

Its using the ics hw composer so it's natural it doesn't support jb function like triple buffer and vsync aka butter
[Galaxy S II General] superleeds27:
Battery life is nowhere near as good though
[Galaxy S II General] Vahooli:
CM 10 and 10.1 are so buggy ! how we can leave great CM9 ?!
[Galaxy S II General] Dimple101:
Why should we? :D
[Galaxy S II General] fatjivi:
Which means its broken for JB! Coz there is no source code from Samsung. Now they have moved to open source which is good but still quite buggy. All in all one simple word would be its still broke
[Galaxy S II General] gazdajezda:
Tell me something, did you try 10? It's faster, generally better, unfortunatelly in some special situations it's bugier, but hey, i dont experience any of those, so at least for me, this is not reason for living in a cave ;) CM9 is passe...

---------- Post added at 01:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:46 PM ----------

How its broken since it works same way as in cm9, even faster. Only special features not works (butter, vsyncl).
[Galaxy S II General] Morngkilr:
Are you fkn kidding me??? I get way better battery life on cm10 then i ever got on cm9 or even stock Bell rom..... usually averaging around 16 to 18 hours with 3 to 4 hours screen on and when i plug it in i still have like 10% left.... you cant judge before trying ;)
[Galaxy S II General] ronhoover88:
See some brand promotion going on here for cm10...This is cm9 thread, there is a reason there is another thread for cm10!
[Galaxy S II General] Morngkilr:
Lmao well at least were staying in the CM line! ;) we could be promoting another "brand"
[Galaxy S II General] jcasares:
gazdajezda, stop trying to move people from stable CM9 please.

CM10 is far from being stable so if you like it go ahead and use it but don't try the rest of the world to jump on it on your own experience.

When there are no major bugs we will see if we move. For now, there is nothing compelling there for the people working with their phone.
[Galaxy S II General] gazdajezda:
I'm not trying to convert anyone, i only say facts, based on my experience. I used CM7, CM9 and currently CM10, which in my oppinion, is the best. If you are not willing to see or register that, its perfectly ok, but i think i have all right to say what i said. If someone here write something what i know it's not true, i can say opposite, hey it's a public forum, what do you think? You use whatever you wannt, of course. So others will do same, hopefully. And if you read carefully you will notice that i'm not the only one who think same about 9/10 comparison. So, live with that or stop complaining - i was not rude or similar and definitely i was not talking just to U.
[Galaxy S II General] fatjivi:
I guess its time to grab the popcorn. And BTW those "special" features are important to me. A non working hwcompser on cm 10 means I can't watch high definition videos on my phone at all since they lag like hell and the standard resolution ones consume way too much battery since only CPU is used. Also cm 10 doesn't have WiFi direct which can be easily used with cm 9 using WiFi shoot. CM 10 you have to rely on making a WiFi hotspot every time to send files which is rather irritating. Don't presume people don't need "special" features. I have one of the best smarthphones why should I compromise special features just because cm 9 isn't the "latest"

My verdict? I think people think in different ways. You have no right to tell people they are wrong just because they don't think like you
[Galaxy S II General] gazdajezda:
Definitely. Ergo, use the one which suits you best. I do that already, since i don't need features you describe. Maybe watching videos, other ones i don't use at all...
[Galaxy S II General] fatjivi:
Exactly, there is no best ROM. It differs according to the need of the user
[Galaxy S II General] Vahooli:
what r u doing with a big audio bug in cm 10 ?! i cant imagine i cant set my notification sound volume ! and how about carsh ril ? and how about battery ?
[Galaxy S II General] gazdajezda:
I guess i'm one of lucky ones then. Currently, i'm on Siyah 5.0.1 and i honestly don't have problem with ril crashes. Until JB leak i had LPS modem / ril, but after JB leak flash i leave and still have modem which came with it - no ril problems (at least i don't record them). I also deinstall BBstats because there was few seconds ril crashes registered after few days. Same for sound. When i run i listen music from Sony USB walkman so i don't experience major headset problem for majority of CM10 users. I also disable battery eaters (G Now, Maps...) and now i get 2 days battery with moderate use and one day with heavy use (some 4 hours of screen). Once i get 5 days from 1 charge, but that was really minimal usage, so it's not for a reference. I also try to charge when i get on 1% and charge from 30 to 60 minutes after phone show that battery is charged. Don't know, maybe it is placebo, but i feel that batery not fall so quickly from starting 100%. For instance, if i unplug phone on 11PM (after 4 hours charge cycle) and go to sleep, there is still 100% when i go to work (7:00 AM). This is no lie, it's how is it, after i decide to charge as i wrote.

My typical usage pattern is: cell phone calls, voip phone calls, mail, greader, browser, gtalk, some YouTube, camera for taking photos & videos, occasionally Sygic navigation (separate BT GPS in a car). I don't do this: watch movies (i have XBMC on big screen for that) on phone, not have permanent internet connection (when i need a net i turn it on - press on a widget), listen music via headset (i'm too lazy to have headset with me constantly). Also, since i really hate FB and similar social sh** i also don't waste battery/time on that - yes, i'm old ;)

I also raised min freq to 400 and max. to standard 1200 (lulzactivex) & and result is smoothest ROM ever on my phone. Ok, maybe TW launcher on JB leak was faster, but other stuff (not from Samsung framework) was not so smooth and i don't like TW. For me, CM10 is currently the best rom. I will definitely switch to 10.1 after GUI & BT glitches will be fixed. As you can see, I really don't need/use all phone functionalities, so i can have few tradeoff-s. Result is great working, smooth ROM which cover all my (current) needs perfectly.

EDIT - There is one problem i remember but is not so annoying: once in a while, sensors can stop working. Reboot is a solution. It happens to me once, dont know why.

Huh, one of my longest posts here ;)
[Galaxy S II General] JulianXhokaxhiu:
Personally I've tryed on of the mcm build, which people told me that audio bug has been fixed but in fact Notifications are playing at the half of the volume :\ That's why I'm rolling back again to CM9. Last try this, I'll switch again to CM10.x when Samsung will release their source code and maybe CM team could fix out little annoying things like this.
[Galaxy S II General] 0355:
I always find funny how people sacrifices new and very useful functions and features for the sake of their need to see an higher number in the field "Android version"...

I personally think that what is peculiar to Jelly Bean (4.1) and what makes it different and better than Ice Cream Sandwich is:

1) so called "Project Butter" which makes the UI feel really smoother

2) Google Now which is a way better system to search and retrieve informations.

Or about 4.2 are photosphere and in a minor way the new keyboard (far superior to the too much worshipped swype).

Without these features TO ME (and I repeat TO ME), there's almost no improvement going from cm9 to cm10 (not wanna speak about cm10.1 as its just an alpha).

Drawbacks instead are all over the place, RIL crashes that still DO exist (doesn't matter what hardcore fans say), no WiFi Direct, less general stability, WiFi issues and whatever...

Today in my personal (and you can even say "poor and useless" ) opinion the best user experience on i9100 is achieved thru the "nearly perfect" cm9; tomorrow I don't know, but I sincerely hope that this incredible pack of devs will sort out those many problems they have trying to settle a stable 4.1/4.2 for this wonderful piece of hardware that still is i9100.

To be clear I tried either cm10 or the real deal (since I have also a Nex7 and Nex4) and that strengthens even more the high opinion I have of cm9.

@gazdajezda

And don't assume I don't try things or don't keep up to date with development status.

I want to move on but I want to gain from that, not lose.

Nice you can gain something, even if it's a number.
[Galaxy S II General] rakeshishere:
It looks I just striked a big wildfire here :D

In terms of features - CM 10 is the best and in terms of reliability and stability no doubt CM9 and CM7 is the best on I9100.

CM10.1 is still alpha so can't say anything as of now. ;)

I used to get FC every now and again with stock browser, but I didn't know why. Have you tried to clear cache etc? May just be a small a bug or something or a conflicting app.

I started using Firefox beta (for flash support). Its decent enough but has some drawbacks, mainly amending a term in a search box. Some of the other browsers on the market are pretty decent. And some of the ones in xda. Check them out if stock browser starts grinding your gears.

Thanks for the quick reply. Yep tried clearing data and still have it. Doesn't really bother me as its not a major thing i guess.

Why don't you just install Adobe Flash player? you can still get it...here . (These are the old versions and they no longer update the app,as you know).

Firefox is pretty good though, have you tried chrome? might give that a go too.
[Galaxy S II General] digeddydogg:
Yeah I have flash installed but some third party browsers (ie, chrome, and Firefox (not the beta) don't have flash support) opera is worth a blast too.

I had this problem in stock samsung 4.0.3 too, ithought may be a new rom would rectify the problem, but it didn't.

Can anybody help me. I need this badly..

I am having CM-9-2012-12-09-Nightly on my International SGS2 GT-I9100.

I love this ROM, however my battery is starting to drain more than usual, I tried almost everything. Changing Kernels etc. I am currently on Dorimanx and nothing has improved. Anyone got any solutions?
[Galaxy S II General] Listy2021:
Go back to stock kernel and install latest BetterBatteryStats. Check Kernel Wakelocks & Partial Wakelocks in the app when you notice your battery has drained abnormally and you should find the culprit
[Galaxy S II General] Spiralzz:
Download CM9 (stable, nightly, whatever), GApps for 4.0.4.

Reboot into recovery and flash them. Remember to wipe data. That's all. You may wipe cache and dalvik, fix permissions etc, but that's all optional and up to you. :)

[Galaxy S II General] pinsb:
Request....maybe not possible yet.

CW

Great job on this so far, I've posted a few battery life screenshots earlier in the thread and am using this as my daily build on my backup phone without problems.

I have a request though that would be great if you could implement, although without kernel sources at the moment it may not be possible.

I understand that the current network driver includes a binary blob for the firmware?

The hardware should allow for a patched driver to include the capability to allow monitor mode on the phone....similar threads for other devices are

here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1271854

and

here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1317406

I believe the chipset in the phone is a Broadcom BCM4330?

If so there's a kernel patch here to enable monitor mode on the chipset.

http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Broadcom_43xx#Optional:_Monitor_mode

I realise this patch is for earlier kernel versions and may well need updating, but at least it's a starting point.

Obviously if the Samsung Binary Blob for the firmware (and whatever else it's loading) is either deliberately or by accident breaking monitor mode functionality it becomes much harder to do, however to have a pocket device that would allow serious capture for network analysis would be great functionality.

If you get a chance to look at this I'd be grateful, I realise it's not on the priority list right now but with your recent comment about a change freeze until a release kernel comes out perhaps you could review this in the interim?

Thanks in advance.

Running the newest build (and the other one before it) I get an error I havent hade before.

Everything works great, but when trying to dial - or recieving a call - the process com.android.phone dies immediately. Never get a chance to pick upp or connect.

Tried Fix Permissons, tried clearing the Phone app data thru Manage Apps, still same result.

I have a lot of contacts, and the call logg is fairly full (500 entries). But I cant seem to clear that in the other Phone app, called Phone Storage, the buttons are blanked out.
