Have you tried accessing the sd card when flashing the KP8 Kernel and I mean the sdcard, not the internal 16gb? You can't, probably because Kp8 kernel mounts to mnt/extsdcard but current ROM runs on basis Kernel mounts it to mnt/emmc

Changes to all of CM9, not just the SGS2 fork that codeworkx is providing for us. He has integrated them into our fork to make the experience better, and to match the other CM9 devices and builds.
[Galaxy S II General] luizffgarcia:
Extract KP8 Kernel from 0106 build with Ktools, flash the new build and then flash the KP8 Kernel.

Sorry, can't upload the zimage right now, have to leave... I am sure someone will upload it soon.

I have working Video....

I have working Video with the latest leaked sammobile firmware. Hate to seem ignorant here, but now that there is a working 4.0.3 rom with HW video, is it not easier to get video for the CM9 rom working? I was really happy with the CM9 0111 rom. it was perfectly Stable rom with a decent battery performance, just the small flaw that it couldn't handle video or youtube. I was kinda expecting/hoping that the video issues would be resolved now there's a better leak.

One other Question: What exactly does "Upstream Changes" mean?

Let me guess... you're on vodacom? Me too. There are two solutions available for you.

-The first and easiest one is to download go SMS pro for the market and use that instead of stock for SMS sending. (U will have to enter the vodacom SMS Center number in the settings of the app: +27829119).

-Option 2 if you want to use the stock messaging app is to do the following

a) go to dialer and enter *#*#4636*#*#

b) choose the top option "phone information" and then scroll down to where it gives you a space to enter an SMSC number.

c) enter this code (only on vodacom): 0791722819911100 and hit update.

d) exit and reboot phone.

e) send sms to test. It should work.

It's the updater-script from an update.zip to flash.

It's doing basic stuff like removing Camera Sounds and Apps I have no use + adding AddWidgetPicker (last I checked it was not included in CM9, I think it was in CM7) :

ui_print("*** Mounting ***");
show_progress(0.500000, 0);
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");
ui_print("*** Processing ***");

[Galaxy S II General] 0355:
In the official thread there's a reference to "S2/note speaker issue" but there's no clear explanation on workaround/fix.

So I can live with that, it's software issue not related to cm9 (at least I think...)

Edit:

this' the only "workaround" I could find:

"On my Galaxy Note I am able to leave the headset jack partly plugged in to listen via the speaker and still use the cable as an antenna."

Seems to work.

[Galaxy S II General] greglord:
For the last month, upgrading to every nightly possible, I'm still getting black screens of death, where phone just hangs, gets extremely hot and nothing else helps than rebooting (holding power button to reset it) or removing battery. I have disabled all apps that were using any kind of background processes or sync to run, dmesg doesnt points its finger to any app, tried resetting to defaults for several times in between, clearing cache, dalvik, fixing permissions, redownloading nightly and what not.

I'll try one more thing- changing kernel to see if this will do the trick.

ps: Btw, other than that... cm has always ran perfectly for me, deep sleep working as it should, no other problems. but this one is really getting on my nervers... anyone else getting the same problem?

ATTENTION:

Guys, is anyone else experiencing crashes with a game called Treemaker?

Would you be so kind and test it in your phones?, it always crashes and hangs after a minute or a couple of minutes of playing, I have to reset the phone or pull the battery.

I contacted their devs and they told me they run it fine in their SG2 Test units, so I am providing them logs and could be useful if you confirm if this is a problem happening with CM9.

Attached is my last_kmsg I sent them (not sure if it is important) in case someone wants to peek around.

EDIT: no UV or OC, stock values here, will try to run it while OCing later today. Already tested it with CM and Siyah kernel, also with MIUI v4, same.

Thanks for your answer. In my case, the bluetooth device (the wiimote) does not require any PIN code, there is an app on the market allowing direct connection that apparently works on other phones and ROMs. But it seems to use the bluetooth profile defined by default in Android (I get the same pop-up if I mannually try to connect the device via settings).

Any idea ?
[Galaxy S II General] confusedmuse:
:confused::confused:

What do you think "wide" means??

With 8 MP setting:

Res: 3264 X 2448 = 7.990.272 pixels = 8 MP ratio: 4:3

With 6.5 MP (w) setting:

Res: 3264 X 1968 = 6.423.552 pixels = 6.4 MP ratio: ~16:10

There is nothing "missing" or "cropped"! (headache) How can someone miss the meaning of aspect ratio? It is known for decades! :(

You all did notice newer movies (16:9) on old tv's (4:3) have "missing" parts at top and bottom, and older movies on newer TV's are "cropped" left and right? OMG Seriously...
[Galaxy S II General] Fr33L4nc3r:
I had a weird issue with BT today :confused:

I was listening music in my car when it seems that I received a call from an hidden number.

I have an App to block them, and hence received a notification.

Thing is, it stopped the music and started to make a sound like "bip bip" repeateadly until I disabled either car or phone BT.

I couldn't restart the music anymore, as soon as the phone was connected to the car, I had this annoying sound and the mention "WITHHELD" on car radio LCD.

Had to reboot the phone to fix it ...

Any idea ?

Thing is, when blocking hidden number, sometime the app let the phone ring for like half a second, maybe it is linked ?

My opinion is that the combo phone + car still think there is an incoming call, but as there is none, it keeps sound looping ....

Tested a few days ago and wasn't able to play long, so I unstalled it although it seemed to be a cool one :(
[Galaxy S II General] Entropy512:
Even with the source, without protocol documentation, it's unfixable.

What we do know:

It doesn't affect anyone at Google who tested the feature, so it works with whatever servers Google uses for testing.

It doesn't work right with some Exchange servers - so obviously something in the server is configured in a way the code doesn't like. For example, Hotmail calendar sync is notorious for killing battery.

Yes, and also - any GPS that reports an error estimate is LYING. The ONLY meaningful numbers are PDOP/HDOP/VDOP.

Posts like this without last_kmsg are useless.

My current guess is you're hitting the same RCU stall issue everyone else has. It's a problem in Samsung's ICS kernel source code that no one has fixed yet. (I'm working on a possible fix, but it's proving to be hell to get it in properly.)

I get SoDs once every day or two, always the same problem - RCU stalls related to the Exynos MCT. :(

I'm hoping this patch will be the fix - http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kern...it;h=e248cd5d5f1c28c82781d4122dddd1b7c3d7b46f - looks simple, but actually implementing it requires backporting a pile of VERY large patches from the 3.1 mainline. :(
[Galaxy S II General] greglord:
Thank you Entropy for your reply. I already posted one dmesg a while back, checking it again, its very similar as that one was:

[Galaxy S II General] DreadPirateDan:
I was almost certain I didn't suffer from pink spot - have had the phone for around 8 months and taken many a picture with it.

I took a picture of a block of land we were purchasing and on the browny green of the grass it showed up like crazy :mad:

So for me, as long as I don't go into realestate, I shouldn't experience that problem again :D.

I guess photographing a different colour/lighting scene to the norm might bring it out for a few people.

EDIT:

And @ marcosxd. You say you have tried it on MIUI, so this gives me a hunch that it may be much more so to do with the app itself, not CM9. I'd suggest testing it with stock samsung firmware, then try contacting the developer if you still experience the issue.

Hi there ,I want to install this ROM on my friend's S2 ,seeing how good it is on my galaxy note

However I have one question , the op instructions state that the phone should be running ICS boot loaders lower than xxkph ,my friend's s2 is still stuck on GB 2.3.3 .

So must I flash stock ICS with bootloaders first ?

Or will GB bootloaders work fine for installing cm9 on the s2 like they do on the SGN?

Thanks in advance

GB 2.3.3 bootloaders work fine. You won't have issues with them.

OK thanks for answering but which is it? You've got me confused now

Flashing from recovery is more convenient ,and teamhacksung FAQ says one doesn't need to flash bootloaders

besides I don't wanna flash with ODIN because of the triangle

Wait I remembered that triangle away.apk exist for ICS bootloaders

Will it work if I flash cm9 from stock GB using ODIN?

Will resurrection version flash bootloaders?

Sorry if I sound like a noob but official ICS hasn't hit the note just yet so I have no experience with bootloaders

Thanks again
[Galaxy S II General] SimboXXX:
All you have to do from GB is follow instructions in OP. ie. Root, then flash latest cm9 in cwm. Don't need to flash bootloader.
[Galaxy S II General] marcosxd:
Too late for the party but just to clarify:

1- I already have a PC and a laptop :)

2- I know this is for CM9, I was asking to fellow members if they were having the same issue as me or if that was isolated (just my phone)

3- Yes, I used (chronological) CM kernel, Siyah Kernel, and then MIUI rom with Siyah kernel, I am not asking for support while using another kernel, I was merely stating I did test it with several kernels.

4- Yes this is the DISCUSSION thread, that's why I am posting here :)

5- Moto wha..:eek:?

This a pretty entertaining game, and since I'm in touch with their devs, I am trying to provide them enough help to fix the problem, after all, we can only want better compatibility for our devices running CM9 right:cool:?

If you can boot into cwm then just flash with that. Odin method is in OP mainly for people who need to change bootloader. If you haven't Odin flashed a stock ICS then you probably don't need to change bootloader.

Hey guys, I just wanna make sure that two bugs that I'm experiencing are in fact known, I've seen in places that these were supposedly fixed, but I'm still experiencing them. So i just wanna make sure that its not just my phone, needing wipe.

1. While saving videos using video effects(e.g Big Eyes), the color gets messed up when the video is saved.

Looks like the video was put through a blue filter effect.

2. Predictive text on the Hebrew language, sometimes causes the keyboard to crash.

To reproduce:

Change input language to Hebrew set "show correction settings" to "always show".

Click any text box to open keyboard.

Type in Hebrew "ש"(second row far left). Then any other letter.

CRASH.

I found out that fully turning of the auto correct settings(auto correct/show correct) that the keyboard works fine. I was unable to reproduce it with other languages, so i don't know what the deal is.

Thanx for the help.
