hey guys i have a huge problem, is it at all possible to flash the resurrection edition using cmw?

The reason am asking is because I have the new bootloader, but there is a problem with my phone, it thinks its charging all the time (even when its unplugged) therefore the pc doesn't recognize it. So i can't use Odin. I am still not sure if this is a software or hardware issue for me. I am currently on CM9 but there is alot of strange behavior (that's why I think i have the new bootloader from the previous rom). I used CM9 in the past, first time experiencing this.

If anyone has any info on this issue I would really appreciate it! My phone thinks its plugged to a charger all the time (even when not plugged). When I plug it it does charge so I don't know if its software or the USB is faulty.

Thanks
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
Have you tried cleaning the USB port? That sometimes helps, use a dry toothbrush and/or some compressed air. As for the bootloader, if it boots into CM9 you're good as far as that goes.
[Galaxy S II General] tgl0be:
Before flashing a resurrection edition, have you tried doing a factory reset then reinstalling via CWM? It did the trick for me once.

In the worst case, you could also flash resurrection using Mobile Odin.

Hey guys, me again. I'm still having this issue where every time I reboot my phone, the Stay Awake option turns itself back on!? I've tried full wipe of everything and it's still happening. I thought it was MTP causing it before but that's been switched off ever since and the issue is still there. :(

Same for me on Vodafone DE. I switched to LPX-modem 2 weeks ago, so I can't really say if it is modem or firmware related. Within the last to weeks I noticed complete signal loss from time to time. Yesterday I got cut off from within conversation (nightly 20120704 installed). For now I switched back to LPS-modem, which I was using for several months, to see if this error occurs again. Would like to use search button, but it is still gone.

[Galaxy S II General] Honzze:
There's an option (or app - don't remember) which allows you to continuously write the logcat into a text file on your SDCard. I've used it to track down some other issues. Try googling, maybe it's in one of the hidden developer menus, accessible by typing a special number.
[Galaxy S II General] Honzze:
I also had LPX for some days and some calls dropped. I've read elsewhere that the LPX modem could be the culprit. So now I'm using LPS for Vodafone Italy. In case it doesn't fix the problem, I'll try to get a logcat and file a bug.
[Galaxy S II General] anshmiester78900:
Is it only me or the display brightness or our phone decreases in CM9 compared to the stock samsung rom ?
[Galaxy S II General] Honzze:
Yes, but battery life is awesome that way. ;-)

No seriously, you need to enter custom values in auto brightness configuration. If not the highest brightness you'll get is about 75%.

These are mine, since the sensor jumps up and down in big steps I didn't enter more. The first two are there because the uppermost value always got ignored in my case:

[Galaxy S II General] SimboXXX:

[Galaxy S II General] bazzag:
Yep. Looks like dual-mic is disabled in the latest build though.

[Galaxy S II General] giosoliman:
seems to be happenning to me as well especially with ea games. and yes they are all legit/paid games so i dont know why it needs connection. "Update Check" runs for a minute before playing the game for ea games.. some games like logo quiz and others dont run at all and instead a white screen appears. have others experienced this? wasn't happening before i updated to 7/5 nightly.. came from 6/12 btw.. its really annoying because it takes too long to start..
[Galaxy S II General] MuadDib_II:
In the experimental building it's located in the Phone settings (the dialer), not in the settings menu
[Galaxy S II General] dandjo:

I also think it would be a good idea to enable it by default. A core feature of a phone should be enabled. It think it's not a good idea to follow those few users having problems witch echoes due to crappy phones.

About the empty notification problem:

I've added the data toggle to my notification a couple of days ago, and since then the notification window always appears correctly every time.

With the above change, the torch toggle is now also visible, whereas it wasn't before.

Don't know if it makes sense or not, but thought I should share.
[Galaxy S II General] bobhwasatch:
I have this too. Did a logcat while changing the setting and all I see is the calls to play the click sound. So no help there. I do see this on every boot though:

The exception is caused by this line in device_preferences.xml:

It is being saved as a boolean but read on startup as a string on line 91 of SensorsFragmentActivity.java. Seems to have nothing to do with the Stay Awake option not getting restored, as removing the bad line from the settings file gets rid of the exception but the Stay Awake is still not restored correctly.

It's in phone settings when you open your dialing, the option is disabled for default, at least at EXPERIMENTAL version :)

BTW: I've been in Jesolo near Venezia a few weeks ago, and there the network coverage, speed and stability where also terrible with the latest stock Vodafone ITV ROM. I don't know if this is related to Vodafone switching over to LTE.

[Galaxy S II General] Imperiale:
I have the same problem. Checked in BBS, it was due to suspend_back off kernel wake lock for me. Apparently this occurs when too many applications try to hold a wake lock, so the system steps in and keeps the wake lock until all the services have finished. Best way to remove: reboot, or try an app called Carat (in play store) to identify the battery "hogs."
[Galaxy S II General] fede_79:
MMM. Thank you for ur feedback. I live near Jesolo (San Donà di Piave exactly). But do u noticed call drop (drop signal)? I dont know what's app is (probably) causing that. Just i noticed that after a full wipe and after restoring all applications all works fine. Then after opening up and configuring account in: eBay, Viber, Dropbox and Google Skymap, I again noticed call drop. Now i have done a full backup and goes back to Stock latest Italy and testing a few days.
[Galaxy S II General] eseregin:
suspend_back off kernel wake lock - probably this is not what you should look for.

This wake up - normal, then pone waking up, kernel sure need get back from sleep, from suspend.

Better see what you have in "partial wakelock", not "kernel wakelock"

[Galaxy S II General] bazzag:
Scratch that, the latest build still got echo. Stick to the Experimental for now guys.
[Galaxy S II General] Honzze:
I had some call drops, but only in the zone I was back then, (verso il faro). Signal was always good enough. Going more to another zone (Mazzini), it got better. This could also be related to this special cell beeing overloaded by too many mobile phones.

I don't have any of your apps. Honestly, I don't believe that an app has much influence on this, besides apps that work at root level, maybe for some hacks.

Still, this could be a special problem. Open questions:

- Is it really irrelevant which one of the latest modems one uses? What modem has been used exactly.

- How many dB signal strengt did one get before call drop?

- Does it affect only one carrier (Voda), or does it also happen on others?

In the mean time I'll try to save a logcat as soon as it happens next time. Maybe there's some useful info within it.

Somehow I think my sod-problem is related to deep sleep. I've been running alogrec the whole day and so far no sods. Alogrec doesn't let phone sleep.

I did lose signal twice in a row though. A friend called me and I heard just about "hi" before disconnection. Then I called him back and the same thing happened. On the third time we could finish the call without interruptions.

Previously I've been having network problems mainly while streaming but since I'm on vacation I don't need that so much.
[Galaxy S II General] josh_james15:
Fantastic news (kind of) that some one else is having the same issue! And thanks for the logcat, I haven't a clue how to do them, or interpret them!

I think the issue might be caused by a specific app. I've done a wipe twice now, after the wipe it was fine... But then I installed all of my apps again and hello again stay awake issue! It's really strange and annoying!

I was playing with libsomx... in /system/lib, and I realised I was able to make Youtube work with the litle green man with the libsomxcore.so installed. I just removed libsomx264d.so, and got same result as the current trick.

I can't remember which one, as I tried many libs, but I could reproduce same result (Youtube working with green line) in removing other libs too.

So I am not so sure the culprit is libsomxcore nor libstagefrighthw.so, as they are both on my lib folder.

If it can help.

To access external SD go to /emmc

[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
Nope, won't do what he's asking for, see here: http://teamhacksung.org/wiki/index....Asked_Questions#I_can.27t_find_my_SD-Cards.21

I think he's saying that Gameloft games don't recognize /emmc as the external SD card, if that's the case it's because the authors hardcoded the paths (wrong way) rather than using the pointers (right way), if that's the case the only way to get this to work would be to contact Gameloft and tell them to stop doing garbage code.
[Galaxy S II General] chrismalla:
Aaaha, pointers. Will you link me to the part of the code where the pointers are? Or explain what pointers are and what they do.

/emmc doesn't exist on all phones, right? Are app developers really coding the apps that differently on every android device so that the data is stored on the right storage?
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
Here's a good explanation of what a pointer is on wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pointer_(computer_programming).

More basically (and specific to this situation) it's just a variable like INTERNAL_STORAGE which points to where the internal storage is mounted. If you write an app that saves it's data to INTERNAL_STORAGE/data and your INTERNAL_STORAGE is set to /sdcard, then the data will be at /sdcard/data. Since the INTERNAL_STORAGE variable can be set on a per device basis, it doesn't matter where or how the internal storage is actually mounted any app referencing INTERNAL_STORAGE can access it correctly. The problem comes up if instead of using the INTERNAL_STORAGE pointer someone writes an app where the data is hardcoded to be stored at /internal_sd/data, in this case if the device has no directory at /internal_sd/data you're going to run into a problem, but since it's hardcoded into the app you can't easily move that data elsewhere, it can be remedied by some hackery but it would be better if the app author wrote the code correctly in the first place.
