Hi!

Today I just got myself a new Samsung Galaxy 2 (upgrading from the HTC Hd2, as per my current signature).

I am quite tempted to install this cyanogenMod9, but I have a question:

What is the "concept" of this nightly built? is that updated every night?

I also looked the change log, but it's old :

(TV Out: not working properly

NFC support on GT-I9100P is missing

FM Radio: try Spirit FM from market

Wifi Direct

Orientation sensor is rolling when pitching

Actual as of 25th April, 2012)

So as per today is there still any issue(s)?

Thanks :D

(I had hypergroid gbx based on cyanogen mode on my hd2, I think)

:D
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
There have been about 3 or 4 mirrors posted in this thread today (one by me), is it really that difficult to use the search function??

Or perhaps you do not understand the concept of searching... if so I'm sorry for adding this extra thought into your brain.
[Galaxy S II General] iamnotkurtcobain:
Could you use the newer gpu driver from S3 too?
[Galaxy S II General] Entropy512:
If someone can prove that it'll actually improve things, maybe. However I haven't experienced any issues attributable to the GPU driver. It's not like the bcmdhd driver which has been wonky since ICS was released for this device.

I'm guessing it'll be extremely difficult to port - Samsung seriously rearchitectured a lot of their code with Exynos4x12/Exynos5 support, many of these devices have completely different driver architectures. (which leads to the current sources looking VERY messy - in many cases there are multiple drivers for a single device, depending on which "core code" it is used with.)
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
One step at a time, for all we know Samsung has done something to the Mali drivers for the I9300 that makes it completely incompatible with the Mali chip in the I9100/I777, we would hope that they didn't, but it's Samsung who knows that they may or may not have done to it.
[Galaxy S II General] runedrune:
You're obsessed with those aren't you. :p
[Galaxy S II General] runedrune:
All of those issues are still there.
[Galaxy S II General] aerce:
Is there any auto brightness issue in the latest nightly?
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
Same ones that are always present.

People need to get over the notion that newer is always better, while this is often true, older and working is often considerably better than newer and buggy.
[Galaxy S II General] clifffhanger:
Does the safe headset volume restore included on the changelog fixes the issue when someone sends a sms while you're using the headset and playing music?

Also, i can't post outgoing messages/status using online apps like facebook and tapatalk. :(
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
No, it affects the volume when you unplug/re-plug something into the headphone jack.
[Galaxy S II General] clifffhanger:
Thanks!

How about my 2nd issue? any ideas? :D
[Galaxy S II General] runedrune:

[Galaxy S II General] gingersandwich16:
Hi all, slightly unsure so I thought I'd ask here as I can't find a clear answer elsewhere.

Codeworkxx says we need ICS bootloaders lower than LPH. Does that mean that if I flash a stock Samsung 4.0.3 kernel lower than LPH (any recommendations?) I'll then have a lower than LPH bootloader? Just for clarification. And does CM9 come pre-rooted?

Cheers.

[Galaxy S II General] jakeinator21:
I just loaded the nightly from 5/27. For the most part everything seems to be great except for the already known issues. The other issue I am having is with vibration mode. I read on this thread for a bit and didn't find anyone else having the same problem. When my phone is in vibrate mode it doesn't vibrate for text messages. However it DOES vibrate for calls, Facebook notifications, gmail and other such notifications. When sound is on I have no problems. I previously had my phone running ics passion, and I thought flashing cm9 would solve the problem, but it is persisting. Is anyone else having this issue and are there any known fixes?
[Galaxy S II General] moonter45:
Sorry, Phone stay on this screen, but charging ;d

Question: without wifi and newly flashed clean installed nightly, how can I install file manager. I can connect the phone to my PC via USB but can't determine where i can insert the file manager apk via PC.
[Galaxy S II General] mchampeli:
download any Free file manager from Market.. That'll get installed automatically :)
[Galaxy S II General] donkeyhitman:
Putting the technical aspects aside, there is something to be said about having a pure android experience that is indescribable. You just feel cleansed from the OEM crap. That's where I put my value in using CM9.

[Galaxy S II General] Theodhoro:
Anyone else have problems to download the latest version here http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=galaxys2 ?

Nope. You must be holding it wrong.

There are tons of mirrors because of download issues, read back the last 5-10 pages or so.
[Galaxy S II General] Entropy512:
Not having that problem myself - mine properly transitions to the charging animation after a few seconds.

It used to do that before the new charger code got merged.
[Galaxy S II General] shotta35:
Disregard, i reset my router and it works again. Oddly enough my other phone connects just fine plus laptop and printer. Dunno why it wouldn't connect.

2. Will devs even look at the logs that are posted, it feels like no dev other than codeworkx is following this thread (though I don't know who are devs :p), does even codeworkx look into the logcats/last_kmsg that are posted? I hope he is, because my logs are coming!

[Galaxy S II General] htchd2sucks:
Hi again,

I have 2 questions while my GalaxySII phone is charging for the first time:

1) If my device is "simcard locked" will I have to unlock it after installing CyanogenMod? I mean I looked on the instructions, I would know "how to", but I am trying to understand why if I "format" even the firmware (+wipe dalvin cache, etc...) then it would still be simlocked?

2) I see in the instructions "Google Apps:

Get the latest Version from Rom-Manager. We recommend to use 20120317."

So it means that Cyanogen mode comes with "nothing"?

What means google apps, like "Google gogles, maps, etc...?"

Why Then I simply don't install stuff from the "google PLAY"?

Thanks
[Galaxy S II General] gingersandwich16:
For future reference, will that set my bootloader to one lower than LPH? And is there a way to find out what I'm currently running?

Thanks
[Galaxy S II General] wowee_zowee:
weather?

Lockscreen weather isn't updating. there's no location displayed, everything 0 and it just says tap to refresh. It only works once if I manually set a location, but then too it never updates. From searching I found only one other reference so I assume this does works for everybody else? Any ideas?

---------- Post added at 09:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:52 PM ----------

1. Sim lock is default. You can disable it in the security settings if you want.

2. There isn't anything google in the rom. If you want the market, you need to install that google apps zip first.
[Galaxy S II General] jamorenom:
hi codeworkx, I'm on 0529 nightly with stock kernel. I'm having the lockscreen issue (I can't unlock the phone, not always but maybe 7 or 10 times a day since yesterday) and suddenly when I'm on a call my network goes down.

sorry for my bad english.

you con see the Log here

thanks for all your very goob job! :)
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
Lock screen freeze issue is already being looked into
[Galaxy S II General] karendar:
Simcard locks will not be touched in any way after installing a new ROM. That's in a completely different portion of the partition table. If you really want to sim unlock your phone, look in the threads, there are some Galaxy S2 unlock apps out and how to's.

Cyanogenmod cannot come bundled with Google Apps due to licensing issues. They are bundled in the gapps which can be found pretty much anywhere. Flash CM9, flash Gapps and you have all the google apps installed. Not too complicated, methinks. As stated above, you have no Google Play installed without flashing GAPPS.
[Galaxy S II General] ottuh:
I'm on build 29 and I have enabled the lockscreen weather. It's stating 'tap to refresh', I can tap anywhere, but nothing is happening. Anyone know what to do?
[Galaxy S II General] htchd2sucks:
Thanks!

Yes I know "how to unlock" I found the threads, I was just wondering why.

haa flash Gapps means "google apps"....:D I did not understood that abreviation!

Ok its all clearer now, thanks.

Hi.

u find the solution here:

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.appiator.defaultappmanager&hl=fr

or

Go to Settings, Applications. Find the app that has the default set. Scroll down to the bottom of that view and click the "Clear Defaults" button.

and set what u want.

Applications never showed any apps from ROM or gapps, only from market... :confused:

Anyway, I checked with Titanium Backup wich shows all apps, in app detail I can cear data or defaults, but neither Phone nor Contacts had any defaults set... :confused:

where can i get GApps v6, Faceunlock v6 and XXKP8 Modem. ? All downloads on multiupload seems to be dead??
[Galaxy S II General] Narzsa:
Every time you reboot? Bugger.. I have a feeling that would break my idea of utilising the external sd for Google music's offline cache as that's tempormental if it loses access to it and forces you to redownload the lot again :-(

Oh well maybe I ll get lucky and it ll be a feature of cm9s version of music that I can chose the store to store the cache in.

That or someone will release an app that maps it on boot :-D

is facebook sync working for you then?
[Galaxy S II General] salim_belka2002:

if i install resurrection, the rom Has better performance?

I've installed this ROM with cmw, it was prefect!

if resurrection is better, I will install it with Odin.
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
Resurrection method only needs to be used if you can't install CM9 via CWM recovery. It won't have any effect on how the ROM runs.
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
No, resurrection is an older nightly designed to flash with Odin to make sure you have the correct bootloader, etc... or if you aren't rooted with CWM installed. If you have CM9 already loaded, just flash the latest nightly in CWM.

Edit: Resurrection is the same as the nightly from April 20, 2012, that's over a month ago.

Actually, it will probably run worse, given that its over a month old ;)

I did this one time. Nothing changed, so I got back to the newest. There's a difference in peformance or battery? If so, I didn't notice anything.
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
If its working there is no need to change it, the reason it's there is in case you have an incompatible boot loader installed and need to change it, if you have working CM on your phone there is never any need to flash the resurrection edition.

If you have all your location settings disabled or it can't for whatever reason figure out where you are, this will happen, do as Juzman suggested and set your location manually or make sure that your google location settings are enabled.
[Galaxy S II General] :
I never had any kind of problem here. Since the first nightly of March, CM9 just got stable and functional enough to use every day. Never flashed any specific bootloader.
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
Then you never had the wrong boot loader, I'm still using the GB boot loader and it works fine, there were however certain ICS leaks and some initial ICS releases that came with incompatible boot loaders, but the main reason for the resurrection edition is for people who come from stock un-rooted and don't have CWM to flash the latest.

I don't really understand why we're still discussing this, if you have no problems then resurrection edition is

for you, but it might be for other people and you may be unintentionally confusing them when they look in the thread for instructions on how to do their first flash.

The option you need to set is "delay after turned off". Not delay after timeout (sleep). Option is working fine.

All location settings are enabled. So you're saying "don't use the feature that doesn't work"... ;) as this is a nightly, that is probably sound advice. Besides, setting a location manually only works once, it never updates after that either. But I see there is some weather stuff in the next changelog, maybe it's fixed already. And of course this is a detail, you really can't complain when the rom itself is working great :)
