1) I doubt there is a single thread which explains 'which modem is for which part of the world'. In my (and many other people's on here) experience, different modems work well with different carriers in different locations. Apart from finding someone using the same carrier as you (preferably in a same-ish location) & asking them what modems they've had success with, you need to get a bunch of CWM flashable modems & test them out for yourself until you find one that works well for you (the first page of this thread & Rom Manager have a bunch of modems for you to try out for starters).

2) Changing modem won't fix your WiFi issues, as WiFi drivers are in the kernel. Modem has nothing to do with WiFi.

Edit -Re: trying out modems, you might want to read the Canadian thread in Q&A. If it's anything like the AU thread, I'd be surprised if the thread isn't full of posts from people who have tried various modems with different carriers (including yours).

Hey guys, not sure if it is just me or I am missing something but when I open the clock application I just have an option to set an alarm. I'm sure it used to have a drop down menu at the top to change it to stop watch / timer in previous builds.

Lag is a good thing in that way, altough anoying.
[Galaxy S II General] zidane:
hard to tell since we use the phone differently...but i'd say around the same since screen on time for both is around 3 hours (once reached about 10%) with good brightness and always on 3g (maybe for an hour on wifi)

so you think theoretically i should have a better battery life?

and is there something i can do to get snappier response when waking up screen?

The stock Samsung ROM has that feature. Maybe that is where you remember it from?
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
Given that all ICS kernels currently experience quite a long wake delay when in deep sleep there is almost a 100% change that his phone wasn't in deep sleep when you tested this, which means it's very likely that he had some sort of wake lock going on. Depending on usage this may or may not significantly affect his battery life. If his idle drain isn't bad, then it was probably a random coincidence that you tested it while his phone wasn't in deep sleep while yours was.
[Galaxy S II General] prodiG:
I remember reading (a long time ago in a galaxy far far way) that CyanogenMod (some version) could change profiles based on location? (CM would change profile to "home" if you connected to your home wifi/GPS picked you up at that address). Does anyone know if that functionality is in CM9 somewhere? I can't seem to find it

No, but a modified version is easily attainable.

Ok, this is petty and would probably only be seen by users in the USA.

Call logs - unknown numbers (as in not saved) don't show has hyphenated anymore. EG:

(212) 555-1234 vs 2125551234

It only happened within the last 1 or 2 builds (5/14 or 5/16). Trying to figure it out but not home to flash the older ones to test.

Anyone else notice that?

As I said, not really a big deal but I just liked it that way, much easier to read in my eyes ;)

EDIT - Ok seems build 5/12 works but in 5/13 it stopped. To test i actually made a random call on 5/16 and went back to 5/14, 5/13 and 5/12 and looked at the log. Each of the earlier ones showed the number being grouped ("wrongly") then as soon as i flashed 5/12 and opened the call log, it magicalled reorganized itself to the "proper" way :p

Now to figure out which commit in 5/13 build caused it.

Edit 2 - I'm basically sure it's this:

wow i didnt even notice this but your correct. if i go through my call logs, older calls show up properly and most recent calls show up with no spacing.... Not a big deal but worth mentioning.

[Galaxy S II General] shotta35:
I'm gonna email the guy about it and see if we can get that fixed :)

I'm not sure but i guess it depends on it's encoding. I have a demo MKV on my phone along with 2 MP4s to see how they play and the MKV plays just fine using Gallery. It's:

720p 24fps 20Mbps 48Khz 320kbit stereo.mkv

CM9 Performance

Running 20120504 build, noticed that my device isn't as fast as when it was on CM 7.1 or Stock Gingerbread (Samsung). I'm running stock CM9, with no changes to the performance settings and also stock kernel

There is a noticeable lag (choppy movements) when playing Angry Birds. I know the game isn't a good benchmark, but it just doesn't feel right. Also, the occasional sluggishness during transition from Home to App Drawer. Anyone else facing this? It is amazingly stable though (e.g. no freezes, no hard/soft reboots).
[Galaxy S II General] shotta35:
HINT - This is sitll a work in progress. :p - CM9 is not near final yet, or even at the stages of CM7.2 was which is at RC2. CM9 is still Beta then comes RC0, 1, 2 or whatever. :)

[Galaxy S II General] Farkonian:
I see a few responses to this post from people who don't seem to take this bug seriously. FWIW, you aren't the only person frustrated by this problem. It is probably the ONLY reason that I am not running CM9. I use my phone for music quite often, and it becomes very annoying having to manually turn the music back on after any kind of alert. I understand that there are probably "bigger" problems that annoy more people, but to me it is a showstopper. The latest ICS leak from Samsung (DXLP9) actually works fairly OK if you root it, install Apex Launcher and Titanium backup, and freeze some of the useless Samsung apps. I keep checking the changelogs and this thread, hoping to see the headphone/notification bug get fixed.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining... just wanted to let you know you aren't alone. :)

[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
Out of curiosity how much wake lock time is RILJ really holding for you? because that's all this solves. Remember that RILJ is used for phone and by any app that uses coarse location services, so you'd have to subtract that stuff from the total time. Even without this fix, I can't possibly believe that it's more than a couple of minutes a day.

You can use any kernel that supports AOSP, but if you experience problems, switch back to stock before reporting the issues as they could be kernel related and the CM folks can't be responsible for issues resulting from non-stock kernels.

The issue is in the proprietary Samsung audio drivers, if you want it fixed email Samsung and ask them to provide an open source HAL, barring that the fix is not an easy one. StevenHarperUK looked into it in the dev thread quite some time ago and was stopped when he hit proprietary blobs and couldn't continue to track the problem, I'm sure it's still on the list, but without a major breakthrough on how the audio drivers work or help from Samsung (don't count on this) don't cross your fingers on a quick fix.

I genuinely do not understand how the decision process works for listing things as acknowledged bugs... can anyone explain this to me?

Hi. First of all-superb mod, running very nice. But as an absolute noob i do have a question about installing apps from sd card (tried to find answer various ways before). Running nightly 20120516 on galaxy s2, and i am not able to get apps from sd card ... checked for alowing instalation of non-market apps, went to storage, pressing Mount SD card (which is not 'active') and nothing happens. I gues i am missing something as a noobie... any advice? :( Maybe i am missing some "mounting" app?
[Galaxy S II General] horrorist:
Try install the non market apks from your Dropbox account, it worked for me at least, so put them there and install from there.
[Galaxy S II General] sociojeje:
well cm9 itself doesn't have file browser thus you can't install those apps without file browser. One of the easiest thing is you can first download any file explorer like astro file manager and click apk file in your sd. once you check the non-market option, it will work. Hopefully it answered your question.

[Galaxy S II General] kojotty:
Sorry, i'm noobie, 3 day on android, no programming or elementary skills, trying to get some starting info only :o

are we talking something like suggested sollution:confused::

SOLUTION:

1: Create a folder in your internal SD Card (in my case "ExternalSD")

2: Edit vold.fstab:

dev_mount emmc /mnt/sdcard/ExternalSD auto /devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.2/mmc_host/mmc1

dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard 9 /devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.3/mmc_host/mmc2

3: Edit /system/build.prop

# Mount the internal SD card, too

ro.additionalmounts=/mnt/sdcard/ExternalSD

to my mind, its something about "mounting" sd card, which CM9 nightly is unable to do for me...

Many members reported that problem months ago, it is still here yes. I have this problem even while using Poweramp.

I am also using my GSII as a MP3 player and this is quite irritating, but this won't keep me away from CM9 and the best fix is to put the phone on vibration only, no more notifications to disturb you...

You can also use some tweaks with Poweramp to fight that problem, it has been discused a million times.
[Galaxy S II General] dchn2:
the sd card is likely to be mounted in your phone (hence the option to mount the drive is grey out).

what others have said was that the SD card is being presented as /emmc folder in your system.

just to make sure it's a problem with cm9, would you like to install yahoo mail app from play store and see if you can access your yahoo account:

if both yahoo app and cm9 email client failed, it will be sticky to diagnose.

if yahoo app works yet cm9 email failed, then the cause of the problem is likely to be at cm9.

Simply Amazing !!!

Hi all,

I'm writing just to say how thankful I am.

With my original Samsung ROM I have a huge GPS issue, that simply didn't lock on (I've tried several Samsung ROM's). After installing the nightly from 12/05/2012, not only my GPS works extremely well, but my battery performance is highly increased (I simply don't need to use Juice Defender anymore to last one day ;))

I just have a small question: What frequency do you recommend for installing updates of this nightly's versions? Other than a small issue with the touch fluidity, I'm pretty much satisfied with this nightly, no way of getting back to the Samsung one, and I'm affaid that if I change several times something might bug again...

So thank you very much for this amazing ROM, I hope it just get better !!!

:cool:

EDIT: I forgot to say that I have a GS2, now with CM9 20120511 (and earlier with the KPS ICS ROM from Samsung)
