Hoping someone can answer.

From what I've been reading ICS kernel supports CPU steps from 25Mhz - 1600Mhz, namely: 1600, 1500, 1400, 1300, 1200, 1100, 1000, 900, 800, 700, 600, 500, 400, 300, 200, 100, 50, 25.

I was wondering if this is true for CM9 kernel (as I want to add 300/400) in my init.d script, or is it only for other kernels (like Siyah e.t.c.)?

So it will be: 200, 300, 400, 500, 800, 1000, 1200.
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
I dont think the stock CM kernel supports custom frequency steps.
[Galaxy S II General] #illidan:
Cause its a matter of choice that make people do what they do. Besides it isn't for you to get why people do anything. If you have such a big problem with the kernel don't use it & ignore anything relating to it.

The kernel which caused the brick has since long been removed & no version after or before that has that bug so you can flash without fear.
[Galaxy S II General] Juzman:
Yeah, I didn't think so. Might give Fluxi a go, seems to be the rave at the moment.
[Galaxy S II General] alexandruvlad:
Big issue here

Flashing everything as told in the homepage (only exception - used latest GApps version and not the recommended one) and i get random reboots / phone shutting down (during calls and/or standby)

Tried flashing another modem, same problem

Anything having to do with that?

Also - flashed a newer nightly, issue still persists

Wiped Cache / Dalvik / Fixed Permissions

Should i try a full wipe - again? Is that necessary ?

Any help - please? :)

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy S II General] Honusnap:
No you can't adjust it in CM9, cause the max lux value is 3000 so the last step can't be reached ... Samsung is responsible of gaving only 5 step, CM9 of reducing it to only 4 .. :)
[Galaxy S II General] Byakuya88:
you should try another wipe data / factory reset.......

I've read your post about the G and I just wondering what is the reason there's no BLN on I9100.

Hi: I want to use the phone encryption feature and I have a couple of questions:

1: does it encrypt all, including the internal and external sdcards?

2: is it stable in the nightly releases? 3: does it have special considerations when updating or swapping rom?

4: Does it affect the speed of the phone?

How many of you use it?

I ask in this thread because I am not sure if it's fully functional even.

Thanks
[Galaxy S II General] kemikelx:
What's the Siyah version that you have used?
[Galaxy S II General] Bl@ck:
i don't love it, it's just more configurable than stock CM9 kernel, i'm tired of moving user scripts around just to have 2 params changed.

CM9 with stock kernel is almost painful to use, UI is laggy, when pressing menu items there's a small delay, etc. and performance configuration only let's you change basic stuff, that don't even make a difference since most improvements arrive from GPU tweaking and scheduler changes.

Indeed, Siyah is a buggy kernel, his dev changes things too fast to note if performance really improved, what i saw till now was some sort of running aimlessly to find the perfect balance between stability and customization, i don't know how but he sort of found it, even thou there's still this little bugs here and there.

I'd use speedmod if the dev made one for CM9/AOKP roms, for me is the best kernel for samsung roms, without tweaks runs perfectly, there's no lag or delays, and it's always bug free since is tested thoroughly before release.
[Galaxy S II General] iamnotkurtcobain:
The laggy ui in cm9 stock Kernel is due to a low gpu step (67). No need for a script.

Download antutu cpu master free and change first gpu step to 114 or 133 and scheduler to sio. You'll notice great smoothness :). Oh and use Apex Launcher. Smoothest launcher.
[Galaxy S II General] Spiralzz:
I, too, was wondering about that... maybe codeworkx likes to play with that device more than ours now :D
[Galaxy S II General] rakeshishere:
BLN is known to cause wake locks resulting in battery drain . It appears the code is poorly written and hence CM9 devs have not implemented on Galaxy S2.

This has been discussed several times already by devs and users :-/

Not sure about the encryption stuff but i can tell you CM9 is heavens sent!

I´ve switched 2 days ago from an very old CM7 Version to CM9 05.06.2012 nightly!

Superb Battery Stats, Very Smooth , no reboot since 2 days !

AudioPlayer + Equ works, Cam works , Bluetooth/Wlan works - couldn´t find any issues yet!

Go always for a Backup when CHanging /Updating Roms , when you follow the guides & stickies in the CM9 Thread everyhting should workout fine!

[Galaxy S II General] rdrasovean:
The information in the first post has changed:

Upgrading from earlier version of CyanogenMod 9:

- Copy CM9 ZIP to your internal SDCard

- Boot into Recovery

- Flash CM9 zip

- Reboot

Is there no need to wipe cache/dalvik anymore? Thanks!
[Galaxy S II General] gaz617:
No need. Just flash and reboot.
[Galaxy S II General] SimboXXX:
I've been updating nightlies just with a cache wipe without problems, but there's probably no need even for that.

I am sorry if this has been answered before but does this ROM have some GPS issues or is it just my phone? It just keep searching for a signal.
[Galaxy S II General] spelaben:
Same issue here.

I had the same issue. Go to 'Manage Apps', then 'Maps'. Clear Data and Clear Cache.

It worked for me, hopefully it will also help you.
[Galaxy S II General] haghdk:
Hmm... that didn't do it :-( The GPS icon in the top left corner is also inactive. It doesn't "blink" as it normally do.
[Galaxy S II General] freemini:
It doesn't blink in ICS(as far as I remember). Pull down the bar and see if it says Searching for GPS. Use GPS status from market to see if it works.
[Galaxy S II General] haghdk:
It does say "searching for GPS" but GPS Essentials says 0 visible 0 in fix.
[Galaxy S II General] obdrz:
I believe this is KP9 kernel issue ?
[Galaxy S II General] :
KP9 is slower than KP8, it does lock however, and with a high degree of accuracy. LP2 and KPA had been very poor performers for me.

There's an A-GPS app here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1447599

It helps, KP9 is now performing as quickly for me as KP8. The CWM flashable version comes back status 0 so I used option 2 to install the files. I chose the Google Specific Build.
[Galaxy S II General] peterperfect:
Guys kp9 kernel is full of bugs all around. No 3g connection and bad gps are examples. Im on kp8 using lp1 modem. 3g and gps working fast and fine.

[Galaxy S II General] alainalemany:
Hello people.

I've gotta say, this is an awesome ROM, even if is in alpha mode. I just have one problem, and after I install this ROM, my MTP USB Drivers went crazy or something, the thing is that I got the typical error in which every attempt of Windows (7, x64) ends in a fail.

Minutes ago, with my i9100 stock firmware, it worked like a charm, right now I don't know why don't.

How can I fix this issue?
[Galaxy S II General] wesleyrpg:
Well with the silly rules in that thread then it doesn't surprise me......oh wait an ant farted......insta BAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Galaxy S II General] pulser_g2:
On the bright side, it will increase the literacy rate of the thread significantly.

It's development. I haven't seen you develop, only criticise codeworkx. Once you get ICS running yourself, without kanging this, people may be inclined to listen to you as you would have track record
[Galaxy S II General] alainalemany:
Amen to that... is easier to do that instead of doing something remarkable or at least serious.

BTW Pulser, can you read my problem a couple of posts upside?

Thanks
[Galaxy S II General] Tyvesto:
+1 and I use it with Nova Launcher

But I still have some issues with the GPS fix, however the 6th version fixes the data /3G signal loss

[Galaxy S II General] Hammerhand.17:
Even if I put it in media/audio/ringtones? So I should put in the nightly build before flashing it?
[Galaxy S II General] confusedmuse:
If you set a low treshold from 2nd down to first step it won't use 40MHz inside Launcher... only when reading or viewing plain/2D things.

In my Launcher if i set the 2-down treshold to 20% it will never go down to 40MHz, so i have no lags.

When reading something it will use the 40MHz step and when switching back to Launcher there will be a small lag while the GPU scales up... (<1 sec)

But the lag won't repeat unless you read something again. (GPU isn't busy)

As long as the GPU is slighly used, it won't use the 40MHz step at all.

For me it's basically just a "bonus step" for energy saving only used if the GPU is doing almost nothing.

[Galaxy S II General] Ok_Kaleidoscope5109:
is there somewhere where you can configure the long press menu option?

If I do it on my homescreen/launcher (Apex) it does bring up Search.

However, if I long press it on other apps it doesn't do anything. Like in yelp or Foursquare or browser or gosms you can press the search button on a device with a search button to initiate a search within the app. However long press menu in my SGS2 doesn't do that.

I hope a way to configure the menu button comes in the future, as I find I don't really use the menu button much compared to long pressing home to bring up the multi tasking screen. Therefore I would love to turn the menu button into a multi tasking button, which you can then long press it to bring up the menu if needed. I just like fast multi tasking, just my opinion :P

[Galaxy S II General] Major_Sarcasm:
Thanks for this. The setting that is default in CM9 is too low for me. Every time I tap the screen, the phone reads the tap as a swipe and I can barely type a sentence.

Setting the "mov_hysti" file to 15 has made all the difference. I was spoiled by using the adjuster in Extweaks whilst I was Siyah'd.

Adding the setting to data/local/userinit.sh persists during nightly flashes too.

Think of it as a compromise that works. If you did have notification sounds then you would have to continuously adjust your music volume due to the bug that lower's the volume after every notification but it doesn't come back until the next song or until you interact with it, i.e. adjust the volume, press something. I like it this way as don't need to hear the phone when I'm listening to music as the vibrations tell me I've got a message while it's in my pocket.

Yes. And if the load drops below 55% on 2nd step, it will go down to first step.

That's what i've tweaked. It shouldn't go down to 40MHz while using the launcher cause this gives me lags.

Problem flashing latest nightlies

Im having a problem when trying to flash the latest nightlies, from 06/05 to 06/08.

The install aborts and get a message that has been posted before.

assert failed: package_extract_file("boot.img","/tmp/boot.img")

I'm using the CM9 kernel, and i have been flash the phone from time to time, following the OP guide, since 04/XX and never had this problem before.

The last working nightly i have is 05/24, yesterday i decided to flash the update 06/06 but i got this error. Then i re-downloaded the rom just to check, compare the checksum, but the problem persists. Then i decided to download 06/05 just to see if a previous version may work, but again i got the same problem, so i go back to 05/24, and installed fine.

Today i tried to flash 06/08, and again i got the same problem, so im going back to 05/24.

I always follow the same steps to flash, provided on the OP.

I will do a factory reset and try to flash again to see if that solves.

Anyone else is having this issue?, any advice on what can be the problem.

Do i have to flash the last Kernel provided on the OP, before flashing this last updates??. Any advice is appreciated.

Thanks.
