Over the past few flashes my phone has started to act completely retarded... including signal drops, contacts disappearing and after the 20th build every time I go to my home screen it reloads all my Widgets... not sure what's going on but i reckon I need to do a full wipe because cache wipes with permission fixes hasn't really helped...

Question I wanted to put forth was I remember titanium backup wasn't recommended to use with cm9... is there some other backup software which is recommended...?? I really don't want to have to redo everything on my phone again manually... :what:

Wish I could hold off wiping till the RC is released... oh well...

[Galaxy S II General] DrunkFuX666:
Just about everything works... camera and camcorder work perfect... and the radio works if you instal a certain app...

No real bugs to work about... quite stable... a glitch here and there that you would get with any rom... but yea now's a great time to cross over... OR you can wait till the RC which is expected soon... but how soon... no one knows...

so far i noticed two problems in the 22/6 version:

1.when u want to focus on something with the camera,picture freezing for a second and then its working good(and focused)

2.cant change the time that the screen will lock himself..its on 15 seconds,when u try to change to 2 minutes for example it shows that it did.but when u quit the settings its changing back to 15 seconds

Not possible. Stock kernel doesn't support overclocking. Try Fluxi or Siyah. :)

I often use mhl. Sometimes I've got a frozen output but mostly it works fine with. I tried it with stock an fluxi kernel. But sgs ii display shows the video, too. That's funny. :)

Give it a try and grab logcats if you get an issue.
[Galaxy S II General] yugotprblms:
An update:

Did a total wipe and reinstall using the noob proof method of cm9. Used the recommended version of gapps and updated to the latest nightly. Go SMS still will not read the text of the message across the top when one comes in, only when there is a secure lock screen used though. If I use the normal slide unlock, it works fine. But on the pattern unlock and any other, it just plays the notification tone and shows the icon for go sms.

The normal messaging app works under the conditions that Go SMS does not. Handcent also does not work under those conditions. I have gone through most every setting of Go SMS, and I can't find it to be one of them.

It isn't a a crippling buy by any means, but it is just something I have noticed ever since starting to use CM9. I am not sure how alone I am or what.

Any ideas?
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:
Works for me

Sent from my GT-I9100
[Galaxy S II General] chrismalla:
Well that's maybe the app developers' choice then. It's a security feature, if you have a secure lockscreen you don't want people accessing your stuff, and not reading your messages either.

Or maybe that behavior is handled by the system itself, I don't know. It maybe don't recognize the 3d party messaging apps as..... messaging apps.
[Galaxy S II General] ajayshah95:
Slightly OT but what do you guys think will be new with Jelly Bean? I mean, its an incremental update but is worthy of a new name in Google's eyes so there must be a few significant changes. Also, will Jelly Bean be incorporated into CM9 or will it be CM10? And finally, if its an incremental update do you think all devices eligible for ICS will get JB, and if so will CM9 be discontinued?
[Galaxy S II General] ikanikolai:
I hope somebody is working on the RIL bug because this is one of the main function of a smartphone and it's not normal to drop 2-3/10 call. Sometimes you should restart the device as well because the dropped signal never comes back and you can't search network manually neither.

I know the troll talk: blame Samsung etc. I think you can blame Samsung but that won't solve the problem. Also it's nice to see the new features etc, but I think the phone call must be works w/o drop the signal. Except if you don't use as daily driver.
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
The RIL is closed source and comes precompiled, unless you can figure out how to decompile it into a useful format or reverse engineer it, it is 100% Samsung's problem, this is not trolling, it's 100% fact. Even on Samsung ROMs where the devs actually have the source they can't get the RIL working 100%, you can't blame whoever you want, you can think I'm trolling you, but facts are facts.
[Galaxy S II General] Packsman:
Try using LPS modem.I'm also on Telenor (Serbia) and using LPS I don't have a single signal drop
[Galaxy S II General] Redsoldier:
I am the only one with long press back button to kill app not working on latest nightly?
[Galaxy S II General] rickytenzer:
Normally I agree with posts like this, but it's a fact that the RIL was working just fine for a few months up until a few weeks ago. No data/signal drops. Now I have to restart mobile data like 4 times a day.

There is definitely a few merges that threw the RIL off a few weeks ago and no ones has bothered to revert them.
[Galaxy S II General] Juzman:
Maybe since you're using a secure lock screen, GoSMS and Handcent don't display the message for security purposes? I experience the same with GoSMS. I'm not too worried about it.

Sent from my Galaxy S2 running Cyanogenmod 9
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
Grab some logcats, post them here so the devs can look at them.

I'm not experiencing anything other than the usual RIL crashes that always happen with any Samsung device and the occasional data drop that I can attribute to the fact that my network provider uses far too few towers for the population density in this area.
[Galaxy S II General] chrismalla:
I'm afraid that's something that is gonna take a looong time to fix, should maybe be prepared for no fix at all.

Enable it in settings and hold back button for 2 seconds, thats the time you got to hold it.
[Galaxy S II General] SimboXXX:
Something in your set up or network operator. I haven't had a single dropped call since I've been on cm9 - 6 months.
[Galaxy S II General] yugotprblms:
That is kind of what I thought, but it worked fine on the stock Samsung rom. Maybe it is that kind of thing, but I don't know, it doesn't seem too likely to me.
[Galaxy S II General] architekt666:
Try holding the button longer :-)
[Galaxy S II General] ikanikolai:
Okay, I blame Samsung.

But my SGS2 never dropped signal during phone calls when I used the official Samsung ROM.

Another fact is, my SGS2 never dropped the signal during calls using CM9 a months ago.

The third fact is, my SGS2 drop signal during calls before something is changed in CM9 (there were some cahnge related to RIL).

So I think this is a CM9 bug and I'm not the only one who facing with this bug.

Anyway I'm just saying, maybe it worth to revert those RIL related changes. And I think it's nice to blame Samsung but it would be better if the problem will be solved.
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
What RIL related changes? Where are your logcats? I can't reproduce your problem other than in the cases I stated in an earlier post.
[Galaxy S II General] DSF:
Such a bullshet. It seems that you don't know that sometime a kill action is needed.

Some examples:

Facebook is poorly written and uses a lot of cpu. Old version of google translate used to keep the cpu on high usage. Many times the stock browser keeps the cpu above 40%. Killing and opening the browser fix the problem a time (i'm using lots of tabs). Those are some apps that I've observed that uses too much cpu. Leaving those type of apps in background will drain the battery fast and will make the phone hot.

Next time please don't give us useless lessons.
[Galaxy S II General] :
Since Samsung has the source of the RIL and can't make it right, they should publish it, so CM team can make it alright :P freaking blame samsung.
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
I was misquoted here, I actually said that terminating applications that are functioning properly as a means to exit them is contrary to the design of the Android OS, using it to kill an app that is misbehaving is something else entirely and that is what the feature is for.

That'll never happen, Samsung resists releasing code they are required to release according to GPL rules, why would they ever release something they don't have to release?
[Galaxy S II General] :
Agree. Also, when I use 3G [200MB limit/month], I don't want apps eating it after closing. Good example about Facebook. That's why I'm using Friendcaster, but killing apps after you use they is very useful to help the battery, RAM and CPU. But you need to kill apps that doesn't have receivers, since they can easily run again, so I also disable a lot of receivers.

Sorry then. Didn't think of those examples, they are good. In those cases it's useful of course! But using it every time "exiting" an app.... yeh you get it.

It cherry-picked this change: http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#/c/18099/

It doesn't show as a change on the change log cuz it was a cherry-pick, not a merged change.
[Galaxy S II General] :
I see... Well, I'm still on the 20/6 build, I don't need to update it yet, and I even downloaded this experimental build :p
[Galaxy S II General] chrismalla:
I have to ask, thracemerin and marcellocord, are you developers, or just interested normal users? I just wonder because you seem well educated in the android/CM world. If devs, what are your names on gerrit?
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
I'm not a dev for CM, unfortunately I'm restricted on what I can contribute to outside projects by my contract at work (I might be able to do it, but my employer likes to fire people and right now I'm not willing to risk it), I do have a reasonable knowledge of how this stuff works though.
[Galaxy S II General] :
I also want to know about thracemerin, hehe. He always knows the answer for everything. But no, I'm not a dev. I just make little things, like modding ZIPs or even custom ROMs, and I like to learn everything I can about Android and phones. But most that I can do I've learn by myself.
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
I'm some secret guy who nobody can know anything about....but seriously, I do software development as a job, after a while it's all the same, but mostly I just like knowing stuff so I spend my time trying to figure stuff I don't know out, that's all.
[Galaxy S II General] chrismalla:
Oh well, I get it. Life is heavy. ;-)

Alright, I though so :o I like to learn too, it's fun, can't imagine how the devs' lives are filled with joy because of all they know ;) Heheeh,... Ok back on track.

I'm probably younger than you think, but I'm not gonna tell you, afraid of being treated differently ;)
[Galaxy S II General] digitallysick:
One thing i noticed is if i get a notification, i can tap it and bypass the lock screen!
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
Do you have a secure lock screen setup?
[Galaxy S II General] :
Yeah, no problem. It's because you have no security at lockscreen. Try to enable security and you won't even open the notification drawer.

[Galaxy S II General] diegoms89:
Hi, after last nightly, i noticed 2 bugs (at least, for me)

- If I take picture to fast (in sequence), it starts taking picture buy itself, and never stops!! haha. Is there an option to disable it or its just a bug? Another thing, why it doesnt focus anymore on button shut. Now I have to do it manually...

- unlocking and locking the phone doesnt make sound anymore. I checked/unchecked/checked again the option in sounds menu, and nothing happens...

I'm using the same launcher (apex) I was using at last build (06/06 i think), And changed nothing from that one

thanks in advance
[Galaxy S II General] Listy2021:
Anyone tried the experimental build yet?
[Galaxy S II General] furyau:
I have found tha the last two had more battery drain but then I may need to do a full wipe....

Going to move to that, if I dont solve it really quickly.
[Galaxy S II General] :
omg, everyone reports that the previosly nightly [every previosly nightly, not just yesterday's build] had less battery drain. Guys, seriously, this is getting boring... so tomorrow's build will have more battery drain? come on... It's all placebo, because I see guys with 8-6hours of screen on on every build. This thread is getting boring because of those posts... So if every next build has more battery drain, you won't even turn on your phone on the stable version. Please, it's all placebo, but if you have any detailed report of why it's draining more, you are welcome to report it.
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
This, plus even though our fuel gauge chip doesn't require calibration or save battery stats per sey, flashing a new ROM every day does tend to mess with it a little bit which may result in unusual battery life.
[Galaxy S II General] :
I don't think so. Devs always tells that when you fresh install with wipe data a new ROM, you need to wait somedays so the battery will work better, blah blah, that's bull****. Never felt any difference. And I don't see anything that would mess with the battery. Nothing at /data can make any difference at battery. What could make any difference at fuel gauge when updating nightly?
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
Well, that was based on observation and it could be placebo, but I have noticed a difference in battery life on the first cycle after flashing a new ROM, once the battery has gone from 100->0 once it seems better, but you're right I notice no difference between the battery drain between any of the last few nightly builds unless something else goes wrong like an app goes nuts.
[Galaxy S II General] :
You may see some difference of the first cycle to the second... Try to find the answer: they are never the same... The outside temperature[your pocket, desk, or anywhere], the CPU/RAM usage, the time you use a app. So the first cycle can be more economic than the second.
[Galaxy S II General] karendar:
Why is there always someone who wants to burst my bubble?? I have a dream! LET ME DREAM!!! My battery works according to my mood, it's like a mood ring! I HAVE SCIENTIFIC PROOF!!!!!!!!

Dual Mic works ! I hope to see more cherry pick.
[Galaxy S II General] NuclearBastard:
Sorry for being retarded (might be the night shift) , but I never totally understood the full purpose of the two mics... noise canceling maybe?

and if so, is that a passive ability? How do I even check if they're working? oO
[Galaxy S II General] FRLinux:
I concur with you on this but I resent the post you commented on. I have the same phone, so far the build which never drains for me is 20120525, if I use any other more recent one, it drains insanely more faster.

Same phone, same number of apps, just flashing another build. If I go back to 20120525, no drain anymore.

Some people told me here I was smoking crack so I gave up asking for advice...
[Galaxy S II General] :
Maybe better voice reception? It's used for calling [speaker] and video recording. And I think that it would be for noise canceling as well, so the guy at the other line can hear you better [not at speaker mode]
[Galaxy S II General] fjkum:
you get stereo sound....
[Galaxy S II General] :
placebo

...or the least battery drainer. But here the battery drain is great. Let's see... At today's build if I get 10 hours of screen on, at this 20120525 build I get 9 hours and 58 minutes.
[Galaxy S II General] FRLinux:
Precisely why I stopped asking. Different rom and same apps and configuration. This does not add up.
[Galaxy S II General] atifsh:
Yes every new ROM had less battery, because you were installing all those apps and stuff, that you had. Every new ROM should be checked for atleast 3 days.
[Galaxy S II General] FRLinux:
I am on the latest, will report back in 3 days.
[Galaxy S II General] FeuchtVonLipwig:
Im on 0620 and i also don't have any button sounds anymore when i enable them. I might update to the experimental build today and see if it works there, or i have to wipe again :/

Thats why I dont wanna move on the new nightly because mu battery is gettin better and better every day. So could you be so polite to tell me how to extract only the new wallpapers from the nightly? :)))
[Galaxy S II General] LenAsh:
Just copy the CMWallpapers.apk to your phone and install. Or copy from within the .zip update to your current ROM and reflash. Use 7zip and open the archive, don't extract. You can do this with kernels too, as long as the file name is renamed to boot.img (Fluxi is zImage, for instance).
[Galaxy S II General] ssauger:
Where can i enable/disable dualmic function on latest nightly? Cant find this option but its shown in changelog.
[Galaxy S II General] LenAsh:
Why have you installed the experimental if you don't need the dual mic function? Just use the latest nightly (23).
[Galaxy S II General] ssauger:
I only search the option for, is dualmic removed in '23 nightly, cause i am on it. And in changelog for 23 there is a option to change the state. I am wrong?

Maybe he just wants to test this feature and see what's the difference between the two options :)

[Galaxy S II General] chrismalla:
No, it's not in the 23d build. You may have stereo but the channels are mirrored.

The commit has not been merged yet, only for S3, but not for S2. If you want it, use experimental build or wait for the commit below to be merged. Hope I'm right.

Could we use Fluxi kernel with enabled 2 mics?

I read Samsung's manual :P On calls when loud speaker is on. Also on video recording.

---------- Post added at 07:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:52 AM ----------

And I don't think that dualmic is enabled on this newest nightly, because the experimental was a special build from codeworkx, and the nightly is built by the gerrit merged stuff by Jenkins.
