I could have sworn CWM was vol up + home + power

on latest build battery was 25% for 9 hours not bad if you ask me.

my baseband is I9100XXKI3 which is a gingerbread modem right? seems to work better than all the modems on this thread they make me drop internet very now and then. Any down side to this?

Touch sensitvity latest build

Hi,

Running the latest build don't like the touch sensitivity wondering if flashing 01292012 kernel will have any negative effects or I will be missing anything.
[Galaxy S II General] freemini:
Well then try a jig, if that doesn't work, hope that Samsung will replace it.
[Galaxy S II General] jhernand1102:
You can always pay for it to be jtag
[Galaxy S II General] kevuin:
If you´re talking about the touch sensivity of the device, you can set it under Settings-(the Device stub)Advanced-Screen. 10 is very high 100 very low

Edit: But if you mean the stability/usability i can´t tell..
[Galaxy S II General] cloak:
The 01292012 kernel improved the sensitivity and stability of the latest build on my phone.
[Galaxy S II General] Rumble6059:
Just to let you know, you don't have to pull the battery, just hold the power button for approx. 10 seconds and it will forced reboot :-)

CM9 on.sgs2 latest

It's a really great rom although video recording still doesn't work and touch seems a bit sticky like when trying to scroll through home screens sometimes when swiping page to page it goes opposite way also it's a big battery killer from 82% to 0% in just over 2 hours while mostly phone was on lock screen with screen off and now and then listening to music apart from all that it's a really great rom wish battery life was a lot better and had phone options like show contacts with phone numbers
[Galaxy S II General] freemini:
Check if you have any wakelocks. 2 hours of continuous usage doesn't sound that horrible. I'm sure there's a wake lock though. I suggest you pull the battery and put it back in as it fixed the fuel_alerted wake lock.

well in that case I9100XXKI3 is the best for me good signal never drops connection for no reason (so far) and gives me roughly 25% battery every 8 hours so in theory 32 hours battery and thats with medium usage.

That's where ROM Manager comes in; although for OTA it will cost you. When I was on CM7 nightlies I just bookmarked the CM Mirror site and DL'd from there daily.

You are wrong buddy. Volume down + home + power = download mode and Volume up + home + power = CWM Recovery. Don't confuse everybody.

I have a strange problem with the latest build: My screen turns itself on and off every few minutes only for a few seconds each time. Better battery stats shows a wakelock called vbus_present.

Anyone having this issue? Any solution?
[Galaxy S II General] :
Sounds like it could be a potential hardware problem, e.g. USB charging port. Your phone thinks you're plugging it in. Is the port dirty or bent?

A lot of people are complaining about the battery backup of latest build.. But I'm getting the best backup ever.. While on standby battery draining is only 1% per 6-7 hours.. I'm using LPB modem.. Touch sensitivity is also good.. Am happy with progress.. Thanks codeworkz:)
[Galaxy S II General] GuestK00150:
thanks for your answer. I don`t think so, but trying to clean it a bit. It does only happen with the newest build. It happens even with usb plugged in!

I already tried to wipe dalvik, cache and fixed permissions...

how can that be! it's unfair.

i am using the same as u, While on standby it is impossible for my phone to achieve a battery draining at 1% per 6-7 hours..

Dear developers, can you please give me a guide how should I enable bootanimation once i already disabled yet on the past builds? -Without flashing them again-

Moreover, I think you should make a possible way to travel between the home pages..

I mean like here
[Galaxy S II General] Net.silb:
Grab /system/app/settings.apk from the zip of one of the builds that there was the option to enable/disable bootanimation.

Copy the settings.apk in your current /system/app to a temp folder.

Put the settings.apk that you grabed into your system/app.

Go to settings and you should have the option.

Put the original settings.apk back into /system/app.

Reboot and you should have a bootanimation.
[Galaxy S II General] boggsterman:
So I've also been having bad battery life but i've traced it down to my hotmail account (exchange services wakelock). However, no matter what i do i can't seem to stop it happening. Tried force-closing etc. Tried lengthy battery pull. Didnt seem to be happening on previous builds. Oh wait hang on. Seems that by removing the account and adding it again the wakelock is gone. let's see how the battery does now.

[Galaxy S II General] digeddydogg:
What are you actually wanting from a launcher? That's probs one the most customizable ones. Try launcher pro too. IMO its a crime to slap a launcher on and replace trebuchet, CM9 experience is with trebuchet. It does mostly everything you need at the moment with more options still to come.

[Galaxy S II General] kitecarl:
I might be missing something TOTALLY obvious here, but I've taken my dpi down to 183 and find Trebucket to be VERY wasteful with sizing. For example, most widgets by default are 4x4, and I have WAY too much space unused on the screen after adding a 4x4 widget (doesn't matter if the Google search bar is hidden or unhidden). I can upload a screenshot if needed. If there's a way to get things to size better, I'm all for trying it.
[Galaxy S II General] digeddydogg:
Use a different launcher and change he amount of icons on the home screen. Most market ones (adw, go launcher and launcher pro) will let you do this. HOWEVER, if our want to keep ics launcher feel, you can do this on NOVA launcher too.

CM9 experience has nothing to do with Trebuchet, actually it is very basic, I believe most CM7, and now CM9, users dont use the included launcher...

For instance GO EX is so much more costumizable :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II General] digeddydogg:
But its not what the CM team intended for use with their rom. Otherwise they wouldn't have included trebuchet. That's my point.

Edit

Its basic because he rom is still alpha and they have better things to do with their time. In time I think it will be awesome.

Try just flashing the ROM itself twice in a row, wipe data, reboot. Then if it finally boots, just reboot back in recovery and flash gapps/faceunlock.

The rom boots fine, should I just go in and flash face unlock?

Edit: Just flashed face unlock then Gapps fixer, and No luck again.

Settings --> Security --> Select Lock Type --> Face Unlock --> OK --> Set It Up --> Pause and closes without warning. Maybe I have a bad face unlock v6?? Redownload maybe?

Wow, Problem solved. It was a bad download this whole time. As many times as I've advised others to redownload and I never even thought of it. Every other one worked fine, but not this one apparently. Thanks for the help guys. If you run into the same problem Face Unlock Couldn't Start, it turns out that you have a bad copy. Redownload it and flash it as long as you did the other steps right. No other steps required.
[Galaxy S II General] jamierc:
I doubt this is true. If it were a bad download it wound't flash at all. More likely is that sometimes re-flashing a file a second time helps.

I reflashed this a total of 10 times that I can think of. None of those times did it work. Then I redownloaded it, flashed it once, and it fired right up. I was downloading it alongside about 5 other downloads over HSPA+ so I'm thinking that was the culprit.

[Galaxy S II General] iinga:
Extract it to /system/app (and set permissions to 644) or just reflash the rom

The best to use is the kernel that comes with it. And as kernel sourrce is released, kernel optimisations will happen
[Galaxy S II General] oaia:
reinstall gaps!!
[Galaxy S II General] codeworkx:
The kernel which comes with the rom because it's a aosp rom and not a samsung rom. There are differences.

And using a experimental custom kernel on a experimental rom is pretty dumb.

Minus + Minus = Plus

but

Experimental + Experimental is NOT stable.

Just to make sure he understood:

Use the kernel that comes with CM9.
