Noob alert... I have a GT-I9100 gs2 which, although I am in Canada, is a UK model -- baseband XXKI1. I bought it last May so my supplier brought it in from the UK -- it has a UK power wall wart, with an adapter :-)

I am running cm7.1 just now and am getting seriously close to installing cm9.

I am confused by all the modem choices and would like to understand more about it. Specifically, as I currently am at KI1, should I stay with that, or are there advantages to some of the other modems available.

I did search the forums but I was unable to find the information I'm looking for. If this has been covered I apologize and would appreciate a link. Can anyone help clear up my confusion?
[Galaxy S II General] navodwickra:
read the first post and then the second post(change logs) then known issues. After that should have a pretty good idea about what you are going to flash. whether it has all the daily needs or not. for me it was enough.

Did anyone else noticed that when you turn the phone off and charge it the screen won't turn off?

Mine won't turn off and shows the green battery without turning off the screen even when I pull out the charger it still shows the green battery icon.

To power the phone on I first have to long press the power button to shut off the diplay and then press it again to turn the phone on.

Is this some issue with this rom or is it my phone? I always thought this is a part of the bootloader but since I'm not touching it I'm thinking it's the ROM. It has never act like this before.

Anyone got an idea?

Learn to read first. if you just read few pages back you should have seen people talking about the same issue and codeworkx has replied stating it's a known issue no one is here to spoon feed you. and yes if you come across a bug you are not the first person there is a huge possibility that someone else might have had the same problem so for the love of God search.

for an example I searched "screen off" and look what I found. hmmmmmm no wonder people get frustrated !

For the deep sleep issue, remove battery for 2 minutes and everything should be fine afterwards...

As for the broken usb, it's broken since the the very first build, that's why it is still listed in the KNOWN BUGS section. Use adb or airdroid instead.

AVRCP problem

Hi guys,

I searched on FAQ and in different forum but could not find the answer to my problem.

I have installed CM9 on my i9100 and I found it great! thanks a lot to the developpers!

I only have one HUGE problem. I don't have AVRCP functions in Bluetooth.

I can listen to my music in Bluetooth but impossible to play/pause

as I work in a company that makes bluetooth headphones it's quite boring for me because I cannot use any of my products.

I also discovered that my S2 is now in read-only mode when I plug it on any PC.

can someone help me please? I will be so grateful
[Galaxy S II General] stoney73:
You did read the change-log didn't you? You do understand that this is not a stable build yet? That it has bugs and things aren't working 100%? If you want 100% functionality, this probably isn't the rom for you. At least not yet.

Battery life

In my daily usage, I could perceive that battery usage is a bit worse in 0129 compared to 0126. Using 0126 I had an usage of 2 to 3% during night. After upgraded to 0129 in the same period usage increased to 13 to 15%, under the same conditions. I installed betterbatterystats to see if I find the guilty, but I found none.

What could I do to see who's the battery hunger in this build? Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S II General] dieu2mars:

I will let my battery down to 9%, turn off phone, remove battery, wait a few seconds and reinsert to see if something good happes (such as deep sleep or other).

Using battery stats it shows and immediate nose dive drop from 40% to nothing, Now I have very little on my internal sd card on nothing on my external one.

Did u try ths latest build? Wipe and flash :)
[Galaxy S II General] Net.silb:
Try this:

1) CWM - Full wipe (data, cache & dalvik).

2) Flash 01292012 build, Gapps v11 & Face unlock.

3) Just to be sure - CWM - Full wipe (data, cache & dalvik).

4) Reboot.

Do not install ANY apps and see if the problem continues.

If it doesnt continue, install your apps one by one to see if it is one of them.

Do you have one?

If not, do you have an EFS back up?

If no EFS b/u, do you have a nandroid b/u you can restore?

If you don't have either of the above, research how to recover/restore you EFS. I believe there's a gentleman (Odia?) who is able to fix borked EFS. Can also be done via adb and some voodoo, although I've never done it.

Don't really know if your carrier has anything to do with choosing a modem, but CallMe(Discount-Telia) works fine with both KP8 and KI4.

Mess between RIL and dbm values?

Codeworkxx, it looks like only 5 different dBm values are available (instead of 30+ diff values) somehow linked to the number of bars of signal on screen.

4 bars: -89 and up (to -51?)

3 bars: -95

2 bars: -101

1 bars: -107

No signal: -113

I remember it was the same with CM7 whereas samsung "service mode" (still with CM7) was reporting values with 2 dBm steps (from -51 to -113)

Does it has something to do with RIL?

If yes only reverse engineering could enventually fix this?

Running latest CM9 version. Due to development thread is being closed I'm posting here:

I was wondering why in build.props by default

ro.ril.hsxpa=1

ro.ril.gprsclass=10

So I did some research and found for me (everybody might try as well), that changing ro.ril.hsxpa=2 internet speed is faster and connection initializes faster as well.

Here are result:

ro.ril.hsxpa=1

ro.ril.hsxpa=2

ro.ril.hsxpa=3

You might as well try changing gprsclass to 12 if you really depend on Edge connection.
[Galaxy S II General] codeworkx:
The mentioned settings will only work if your network supports them!

ro.ril.hsxpa

inidcates hsxpa support of target network

Code:

ro.ril.hsxpa=0 - UMTS r99

ro.ril.hsxpa=1 - HSDPA

ro.ril.hsxpa=2 - HSDPA/HSUPA

ro.ril.gprsclass

inidcates GPRS class of target network

Code:

Class 2 : 3 slots : 8 - 12 kbps upload / 16 - 24 kbps download

Class 4 : 4 slots : 8 - 12 kbps upload / 24 - 36 kbps download

Class 6 : 4 slots : 24 - 36 kbps upload / 24 - 36 kbps download

Class 8 : 5 slots : 8 - 12 kbps upload / 32 - 40 kbps download

Class 10 : 5 slots : 16 - 24 kbps upload / 32 - 48 kbps download

Class 12 : 5 slots : 32 - 48 kbps upload / 32 - 48 kbps download
[Galaxy S II General] alangrig:
Well, at least with hsxpa being set to value 2 won't make you speed internet worse and you will be secured for the high speed internet if carrier supply one.
[Galaxy S II General] codeworkx:
I would call it "pacebo".

I'm also running

ro.ril.hsxpa=1

ro.ril.gprsclass=10

and getting higher results.

See screenshot.

Upstream of UMTS is defined with: 384 kbit/s

Upstream of HSUPA is defined with: 5.8 Mbit/s

So i'm already using HSUPA. There's no need to change ro.ril.hsxpa to 2.
[Galaxy S II General] alangrig:
Thnx,

Our local carrier offers HSUPA, so setting to 1 will miss it.

But, this is the same as changing 'Prefered network type' on the Testing menu->Phone info.

This as not effect on my phone. If I select UMTS only, my phone still coneccting to HSPA. With CM7, this setting works and my phone only connects to "plain" 3G. So, maybe there's a problem with current alpha of CM9 and RIL.

I prefer to force only 2G/EDGE/3G and forbid HSPA to save battery. 3G speed is enought for me. But, with current CM9 can't do this. Just waiting for this to work on futher builds.
