Boot animation is like it is because no one cares about 5 seconds when you boot your phone. Torch and performance have already be asked about. Performance definitely kernel sources. Torch, probs cost thy don't care, aokp roms have it.

[Galaxy S II General] SimboXXX:
yes, it is.
[Galaxy S II General] D79_:
Im sure they care about the torch or they wouldnt put the option there in the first place ay and im sure alot of ppl do care about the quality of the boot animation aswell, there been a few post about boot animation on here.

Yeh i thought the performance was kernel probs, oh well no biggie :)

[Galaxy S II General] stormtroopercs:
For people that just want the ics look and also want siyah kernel and such you should do what i am doing.. install latest cm7 or compile it yourself ;) then go to market search ics cm7 then pick 1st install it then go to theme chooser app and select ics.. themes the keyboard status icons and all of that :)

Edit: also phoenix launcher :)

[Galaxy S II General] ficino:
Got the same problem.

Build.prop mentioned right device gs2, but market thinks its a gs1 How can i change it?
[Galaxy S II General] Lycender:
For the Task manager, when you press the home button for a long time, it's only the recent app showing. Swyping the app to the side only removes it from the list but does not close it. Play some music and swype the music app away and it will still plays. Devs mentioned before that sometimes force closing apps could be worst then letting them "running" in the background.

Hi ino this must of been said somewere but no way i can search all these pages :P but how come my sd card cant be used by apps like appsaver and es explorer there was an option in cm7 to use sd card.. Is this option missing in cm9 ot whats the solution
[Galaxy S II General] LuffyPSP:
Loving the latest build! been staying on 0401 build but today only got time to flashed the latest one. full wiped though.

I am not going to bother the devs on CM working on this rom but i'm going to bother other dev though. and this might be a ridiculous request. I am using this on my nexus s - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1361950 and it looks great with the search mod included too. however nexus s's screen is small so i removed it.

I would love to see this on screen buttons on CM9, if someone could make this or port this(need permission from original i think). I know codeworx said its wasting space, but it would looks nice in my eyes(i'm sure some if not all have same preferences too) since sgs2 has larger screen.

Another reason i want this is because of the on-screen home button, multitasking, and search button, so that i can prevent my sgs2 button being worn out over time. Long pressing home button for multitasking gives me the "too hard pressing on the home button damnit" feeling.

Have you tried flashing it to see if it works? I know some people have flashed battery mods made for other phones.
[Galaxy S II General] TheIntersect:
Any reason why my Titanium Backup can't force installs to the internal memory? says it's for 2.2 Froyo only.

Otherwise the ROM is great, I've had 0 force closes and everything that I use daily works!

The proper CM9 is going to be great!
[Galaxy S II General] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
Hmm. Just a guess but your running 4.0 ICS no? That and the OP says not to use TiBu

[Galaxy S II General] LuffyPSP:
i didnt think it'll work since the mod is made for specific roms and all roms have different framework with mods installed.

but i'll give it a try using the CM9 version.
[Galaxy S II General] TheIntersect:
Well yeah, I am just trying to restore my apps from 2.3.6. People have had success restoring apps to CM9 by forcing them to install to internal memory (I did my research) - but I can't seem to get it to work.

Just wondering if anyone else came into the same issue as me..

What are you gonna say to the mods, that his changelog was accurate?
[Galaxy S II General] Vash:
I bet people would be happier if the Changelog had undetectable fake entries:

- Fixes that should improve battery life

- Patch that may fix video playback

...

Some people in here are acting like little kids - expecting everything for free, here and now, satisfied with nothing.

It's a wonder how the devs haven't dropped everything yet... It's thanks to them we actually have CM9 working so well :)
[Galaxy S II General] Try4Ce:
Well, to be honest: If you believe the changelog which tells you nothing has been fixed and you still gonna go download it and flash it just to realize the changelog was actually correct you wasted bandwith yourself, and not codeworkx.

Codeworkx and Team worked hard to deliver a ICS experience we can have today, with limited support and libs support from Samsung themselves. In fact, CM9 is almost rock stable, and you cant say the same about the official alpha release KP8.

So, if his changelog is correct, and he just released it for fun and laughs because he got annoyed about asking kids who dont understand the meaning of "NO ETA's", deal with it. He said so in the changelog, and if you download it anyways, you're the only one wasting your own bandwith and time...

If you care so much about your time and bandwidth, wait for other ppl who download it for feedback to get your choice to either download or not. Easy as that.

Anyways, even if the changelog says "nothing has been fixed", I will try it anyways. I am a flash-aholic, but I know when to stop asking for ETA's or Updates. And I know that when I download something useless, its all my own fault, time and bandwith ;)

Is there any work being done anywhere to try to integrate the t9 dialer from Samsung into the AOSP phone app from ICS?

This is one of the only things that is useful that can be found in stock Samsung and is missing from CM9 and other ICS ROMs.

[Galaxy S II General] FelipeRRM:
Just let me ask something, now that the official ICS is out, why don't they fix the known issues using the official release? Things like FM Radio and Tv out are very important, and using the official release it should be easy to fix, just like MIUI did!
[Galaxy S II General] -pól-:
You are gonna get flamed
[Galaxy S II General] brains5140:
for the record, i would want a mod that works stably without radio or tv out rather then bugs but having fm radio and tv out. let them solve the main issues on the priority list. Im sure you can live without them so you have a proper mod
[Galaxy S II General] freemini:
MIUI is based on Samsung's firmware. Of course they fixed everything. CM9 is AOSP based, and TV out should work. FM won't be fixed and recording is hard.
[Galaxy S II General] brains5140:

[Galaxy S II General] FelipeRRM:

I've a fixer of problems, i don't need help with bugs, i help others but there is a way to go before cm9. Also, if those are the only bugs then i'm assuming you don't use camera for video recording, don't listen to music on speakers and don't get texts or calls often on speaker...

i flashed back siyah 2.6.13 and immediately flashed the latest cm9 and still no luck.

same error. :(:(
[Galaxy S II General] freemini:
Maybe because it clearly says Siyah is NOT compatible with AOSP? Why would you even change the kernel, without sources there is no OC or any modifications at all.

Also, you should go complain on Siyah thread. CM9 only here, you changed kernel, don't report bugs.

Flash this with CWM APP ( when your recovery dosn't work or unable to Flash ) , then you can flash the latest Nightly from Recovery.

Only LPQ Kernel Dosn't work. I recoment LP6/LPH
[Galaxy S II General] kitecarl:
OK - Found the quickest way around the Siyah Alpha 5 CWM flash error:

1) In Siyah CWM Go into "Advanced internal backup and restore" (or Advanced backup and restore based on where you save your restore files). THIS IS ASSUMING YOU HAVE BACKED-UP A PREVIOUSLY GOOD CM9 ROM WITH THE ORIGINAL KERNEL!

(On further thought I think ANY backed up rom would do it, GB or ICS. As long as you have a working CWM in the backed up rom).

2) Restore ONLY /boot from the backed up rom. This will restore only the kernel which contains the valid working CWM. Doesn't matter about the ROM status since you'll never boot into the rom if you follow the steps below.

3) Power off the phone. When restarting, hold down Vol Up + Home + Power, which will take you back into CWM (the good one you just restored, non-Siyah!).

4) Flash the new CM9 nightly, gapps, and finally Siyah Alpha 5.

5) Wipe Cache, Dalvik, and restart! You should now have the latest CM9 Nightly AND Siyah Alpha 5 (which I do find to be more battery friendly in limited testing...).

Hope this helps! You'll have to be sure to do this until gokhanmoral fixes the flash bug in his customized CWM.
