How u guys find the battery life in the latest build with LPH?

I am not using LWP and no extra apps running in bg. The deep sleep is working great for me, however I find that when I just purely use the phone eg. Surfing net or read msg, the battery was like decreasing kinda fast. How abt u guys? Or just me alone?
[Galaxy S II General] luchod:
Wondering the same thing here
[Galaxy S II General] shotta35:
I'm glad it's removed, i hated seeing stupid picassa in my gallery so much so that i rushed to remove photos in sync as soon as i setup my phone. :D

I'll be flashing with the newer version now from now on plus my little additions to make it custom for me :)
[Galaxy S II General] Tomatolol:
Is there any plans to set a lower threshold on the minimum data limits for data tracking? Currently the minimum is 2GB; however I'm sure others (I know I am) are on plans restricted to lower bandwidths than that.
[Galaxy S II General] bbgt2:
Yeah prolly when its stable. Don't think the dev's are going to worry about the little stuff right now when they dont have the sources for other major things.
[Galaxy S II General] eranda84:
since last night I couldn't make calls to any number with the latest build. does anyone face this issue???
[Galaxy S II General] bbgt2:
What modem did u have running on previous build? Check if it's same modem ur running now. If not flash modem u had before.

I noticed, that the scrolling (for example big websites) is much slower with cm9 compared to stock samsung gingerbread. you need to scroll a lot of times, to scroll down a large website. is that because of the alpha status, or is it normal ics behaviour and stays like this?
[Galaxy S II General] pmc11:
Thanks geko and Alexei. Had just flashed back to checkrom v6 when I read the video work around. That was the last remaining issue before CM9 became my daily. (its a bit of a must with a 9 mth old and family overseas)

Apart from the known issues I've had no problems on the latest daily (20120220). Very smooth & stable in everything I've tried. Great work by codeworkx and CM9 team.
[Galaxy S II General] kcdcmd:
I don't know about you guys, but the new build seems to have much better touch sensitivity as compared to the last build, which was really my main gripe with the rom. Feels so much more fluid now. Great job, guys!

Official ICS Leaked

Hi guys,

You all may have seen this already, but it looks like the official sammy ICS has leaked. (http://www.gizmodo.com.au/2012/02/official-ics-rom-for-samsung-galaxy-s-ii-leaks/).

It still may not help too much, but perhaps the kernel sources are just around the corner. Fingers crossed.
[Galaxy S II General] Alienfreak:
Slow news day?

XXLPH is around for quite some days now. And its only the next test release.
[Galaxy S II General] wazza_s:
Could be! It wouldn't surprise me though if Samsung is targeting MWC next week as a rollout for the update. Especially as they've said they won't be releasing the SGSIII there, they will want to dish out some good news.

We can only hope!! :)

[Galaxy S II General] alexeiw123:
I'm not on latest build but try opening the dialler and entering *#*#197328640#*#* on the stock sammy builds, that called up a samsung service mode that gave you control of a few things, amr-wb being one of them.

Edit: or try *#*#0011#*#*

Bit of info on the .apk here;

http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/30051-how-i-can-switch-modems-frequencies/

Maybe they've put that menu into the latest build.
[Galaxy S II General] XpLoDWilD:
We have SamsungServiceMode apk in order to easily access Samsung-specific settings through our Device settings app. It's not useable neither triggerable from dialpad.
[Galaxy S II General] alexeiw123:
Thanks xplodwild, that makes sense.

Do you know if cm9 allow for amr-wb to be enabled in voice calls if your carrier supports it? Or is that a native feature of ICS now?

Sgsii and my carrier both support it, it would be great to know if I'm making use of a nifty feature.

Thanks a bunch, killer work.

[Galaxy S II General] navodwickra:
I don't think so because the hardware is different from device to device.
[Galaxy S II General] lrbpereira:
@codeworkx

Yesterday I asked two questions, going to put them again:

- is it possibile in a next build to exclude the icon of the drawer of the SGS2 settings? They are already on the definition settings menu.

- is it possibile to change the lockscreen to the 4 way mod that anzo have, that´s now incompatible with this new build? Lot better to have direct acess to the message app, camera, home, and phone? Correcly resize for ur 800*480 screen, the original isn´t.

Its up to you, do a Android backup and flash the new build. If there is something you don't like about it then you can always just restore your backup.

[Galaxy S II General] albsat:
Does this mean that using a third party, like Camera ZOOM FX, you can bypass the bugs in current release which are:

Video: HW codecs aren't used

Video: Wrong Pixel format (green line on Youtube, wrong colors)

Camera: video recording broken

Camera: crashes when using face effects

If yes, could these other bugs be address as follows:

Storage: MTP File Transfer partially broken (USB Sharing)- Airdroid

Storage: Media Scanner makes CPU going crazy, device gets hot, battery goes down - No idea

Secure Containers: Installing of big apps fails. Mount/Unmount Sdcard ???

Also, last time I tried CM9, there was a 2g/3g switch. Is it in the latest release functional?

Please help me in this questions...

Thank you in advance
[Galaxy S II General] TheSaw:
Those apps use only some SW capturing, that's why it's stuttering even on low resolutions. It's pretty bad, but it's the only thing we have now ;).

About the media scanner, I don't know, I don't have that bug, afaik.

Secure container is disabled in the latest build. That means it's not fixed, but you can install applications now.
[Galaxy S II General] lrbpereira:
1) Use Rescan Media to kill the media scanner process, simple as that!

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.addz.mediascanner&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5hZGR6Lm1lZGlhc2Nhbm5lciJd

2) To overcome this you can flash 29012012 release, install all the big apps, backup them with titanium backup, flash the new build and restore them to internal memory. This is only a baypass fix, this will be, I hope fixed sone.

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5rZXJhbWlkYXMuVGl0YW5pdW1CYWNrdXAiXQ..

Thank me if I helped.

Edit: for video recording, you can record with a 3rd party app like Camera Illusion, not quite good but it will work.

Who's the maintainer of touch recovery kernel? any thread or something?
[Galaxy S II General] freemini:
Secure containers have been disabled in the latest build, big apps install now. This is for everyone that missed it.
[Galaxy S II General] codeworkx:
There is no.

The one found on clockworkmod.com is no kernel.

It's just a fake flash:

ui_print("Replacing stock recovery with ClockworkMod recovery...");
delete("sbin/recovery");
package_extract_file("sbin/recovery", "/sbin/recovery");

Since Samsung Devices don't use a separate Recovery Partition, there are no real Recovery Images like on all other phones.

Thanks now I know how to calcul this :) I have been on 205 for a long time now. No issue. I have also went to 190 with no issue: All but Market will not approve some download apps if your phone is not at 240. So when you face this, you need to change settings, reboot, clear M.App, download the app you want, change setting back to 205 (in my case) and reboot again. Its seems a lot, but it really just takes 3 minutes.
