Read back mate, you have misunderstood what he was saying. He's not having a go at the dev. He's replying to someone complaining about battery life, and wondering why you buy a smart phone and shut down all the smart apps to favour battery, when you could have bought a regular mobile.

It doesn't help that he quoted the dev instead if the man complaining about battery. But you know.
[Galaxy S II General] eseregin:
Have you tried the last XKPA modem?

PS

Sorry, i see, you have...

Should NetworkLocationLocator really being using 13m of partial wakelocks after about 4 hours of running? Seems like a lot to me...What are other people seeing? I am running Latitude...
[Galaxy S II General] killawatts:
Yeah unfortunately KPA and KP8 are exhibiting the same behaviour when paired with either of the builds from 01112012. It's a known issue but a deal breaker. You have no idea the rild has crashed until you try to initiate a call or message.
[Galaxy S II General] RagingHarry:
Just been testing again on the part about wifi advanced settings and battery drain and deepsleep.

As soon as I keep wifi turned on with advanced setting to turn wifi off during deep sleep >> it won't go into deep sleep anymore and stay on 200Mhz >> drains battery.

While when I keep wifi turned on and with advanced settings at keep wifi always on >> I enter deepsleep mode very fast and the battery use is on very low level.

The first (green) and the last section (yellow) (rather flat) are with wifi enabled and stay on.

The middle section (nearly 45 degree downwards) is with turn off while in deep sleep which i had set over night.

So for me the settings keep wifi enabled during deep sleep seems way more battery friendly then to let the device turn it off and have deepsleep problems.

editmode: added a few more screens of battery and what was used and what not and the time etc.
[Galaxy S II General] melorib:
Thanks, but I understood perfectly, I have seen this stupid remark over and over, some people thinks the smartphone should have 3G, wifi, BT, GPS, all permanently ON, otherwise we are not using it properly, then complaint that battery drains... :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II General] digeddydogg:
As have I. This is the point he is trying to make too. That being, If you want these features expect battery drain. Essentially, this is general smart phone issue and not a rom issue. That's why he says go and get regular dialer phone if you want good battery. He has our viewpoint on this.

Don't want the guy to get griefed as IMO he's making a very valid point and it annoys me when people complain about battery drain when they aren't using their loaf and optimizing their phones for a balance between functionality and battery life, i mean you can't have your cake and eat it!! Ha

On the other hand. It makes me laugh when people say they get 6 days, then upload a screen shot showing the screen hasn't been on at all and there is no simcard in the phone. haha.

Unfortunately there isn't an exam you have to sit before registering on here. So its expected that people are guna make stupid comments claims and not read about before postong. But hey! That's internet for you! If we want restricted internet we should all move to north Korea:p
[Galaxy S II General] TheIncredibleMachine:
Yep I found the same thing, bit hard to run a business with no calls or data! Gonna flash back to 0601 and await the next release :)

Edit: Flashed back to 0701 kang with kpa modem, will see what happens with that.
[Galaxy S II General] lalacle:
With the latest build, titanium backup seems to work now without changing its restoring location to internal. :)
[Galaxy S II General] melorib:
I see your point, but you dont see ours... :p

I use wifi everytime I need, but I disconnect while not in use, for instance during the night, same with BT, 3g, etc...

So I use those great smartphone features and I have good battery life... :cool:

Do you keep the engine of your car running during the night, or when you are not ridding it, you dont, why keep all ON on your smartphone all the time... :confused:
[Galaxy S II General] androidsjonnie:
Turning it off during the night is cool ofcourse. Turning it off during the day is not so cool, I want to read my emails, whatsapp the moment people send them to me.

Lots of others use twitter and facebook, and they want to receive notifications.

So it might work for you but not for the majority. And those that claim to get 5 days damn well know how the majority use it but cant help themself but to storm into every thread and say "you get just 1 day with moderate use? Dude, I am on [ insert rom ] and I get 6 days, the galaxy s2 has great battery life, now plz shut up".
[Galaxy S II General] codeworkx:
that's how the galaxy nexus works.

wifi always on and battery is great.

GSM uses more power than wifi.

lemme see if we can make this standard.
[Galaxy S II General] digeddydogg:
Haha, no of course not, that would make as silly as the people using all data connections 24/7. That's why I said people don't 'use their loaf and optimiz[e] their phones for a balance between functionality and battery life'. That's essentially his point. If you want that, your not going to get a battery on a smart phone that rivals that of a regular dialer.
[Galaxy S II General] boeselhack:
That's one of the best posts here, exactly meeting my experiences!

I'm also sticking with the 01062012 build, because everything is so smooth on ICS ;-) And I don't need video recording at the moment.
[Galaxy S II General] barrist:
the first build from yesterday (not the newest one) works great for me so far.

EDIT: and on cue, my phone just rebooted itself for some reason lol
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:
I think yes if its a AOSP feature

But first let the video recording work alone
[Galaxy S II General] rickytenzer:
I had issues with the buffer allocation when trying to play videos on the NHL app. I see a lot of things were merged regarding the buffer. My hunch is that video will work in the next nightly!
[Galaxy S II General] Mark ter Grote:
no one? its realy wierd and i can't figure it out
[Galaxy S II General] albertwesquer:
Really sweet but will cm9 ever get a dedicated app to watch videos just like default rooms???
[Galaxy S II General] trace1er:
The patch is to lock onto GPS satellites faster. Some people have problems with having to wait a LONG time for the GPS to lock on.
[Galaxy S II General] prabukannappan:
Guys,

This question would have been asked before but i couldn't find an answer.. i tried searching. Please answer once more if its already answered.

1) i can't install cm9 if my kernel is XXLPQ right?

2) if i can't then,how to use the bootloader mentioned in CWM?
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:
If you had flashed XXLPQ from odin then u can't flash cm9 as you have XXLPQ bootloader and cm9 will bootloop

You need odin to flash the bootloader in OP(can't flash it from phone)
[Galaxy S II General] TheMorpheus:
You're confused mate, read carefully the OP...Everithing you need to know is there!

[Galaxy S II General] Pilatus47:
Actually that happened to me even with the stock LPQ rom. So the problem must be the modem.

[Galaxy S II General] j3di:
I'm running the latest nightly and just tried my HDMI cable and surprisingly had the following results:-

YouTube app played video and sound on my Samsung TV.

My video recordings in my Gallery previously taken with a GB Rom also played with video and sound.

Unplugging and plugging the cable on any other source will generate a static image only.
[Galaxy S II General] bleuxeon:

[Galaxy S II General] NOWE:

bootanimation

hey... cant find the option to activate or deactivade the bootanimation ...
[Galaxy S II General] :
There isn't one yet.
[Galaxy S II General] BrandoHD:
This is not a CM9 issue, I had this issue on all Stock Gingerbread Roms Samsung
[Galaxy S II General] goldman11:
well that's strange then cause my browser keeps freezing every time I try playing a youtube video, no idea what is wrong really it was like this in every build for me.
[Galaxy S II General] Phistachio:
Now that's a hell of a nightly changelog... :eek:

EDIT : Most of them are for the Qualcomm GSII... :(
[Galaxy S II General] im-visier:
But there was one... i deactivated the animation to speed up booting... Now i like to see the new one and the option to turn it on is nowehre. Help... living without a bootanimation doesnt make fun anymore.
[Galaxy S II General] BrandoHD:
Read back a few pages or try searching, a solution has already been posted.....
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:

Its the changelog for everything that goes into the SGS2, including universal bits like the framework.

If something big is fixed, we will know about it, dont get to excited over a big changelog, CM9 covers a LOT of devices, so there will always be framework etc fixed going in.
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:
Their isn't cm9 for skyrocket

and in the commits their is Jerpelea's name(the sony device maintainer) and also some of them are htc i guess

SGSII GT-9100 Android 4.0.3 CM9-201200326 @ 1200Mhz score 5799

Why so :confused:

Im not moving back from my ICS but why is the score so much lower?
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:
Benchmarks doesn't matter

If you care much then go back to gb
[Galaxy S II General] runedrune:
Benchmarks mean nothing.
[Galaxy S II General] freemini:
Seriously, stop making opinions about ROMs based on benchmarks. It probably isn't fully compatible with ICS. Just use it as you should, this isn't a gaming PC competition.

http://cm-nightlies.appspot.com/?device=galaxys2

A lot is changed in the Video and camera part of the next build.

Could this be a big step forward to a working camcorder?
[Galaxy S II General] hIdd3N-:
dear kind sir, you mind telling me the name of that app?
[Galaxy S II General] oaia:

My stock weather widget loves to stop working ehh :(

Hmmmm wish we had a digital clock widget on android 4 like we did on 2.3....

Videorecording doesnt matter since I've received a PureView 808 :)

......Damn i wish there was a XDA forum for Nokia N9... Can't flash bootloader to install ICS :(

Love chrome beta now. On the 26 build its running perfect....

hmm,, maybe I'll try to help out with debugging the video recording...
[Galaxy S II General] jeffojeff:

[Galaxy S II General] stealthj:

It would be nice to have a stock movie playback app

It is GPS Status, great free app on the market ;)
[Galaxy S II General] halfrican.ak:
Thank in advance for forgiving what is probably a noob question.

I was hoping someone could tell me how to eliminate the numerical code next to my carrier name on the lockscreen and notification bar? After searching I believe the numbers displayed are MCC/MNC data related to the APN data that I had to force since my regional US carrier's data is not included in CM9 by default?

This is displayed as 311370|GCI under the locksreen and notification bar
[Galaxy S II General] coudu:
Don't hold your breath too much, those changes are quiet not related to our device...

anything big fixed since 9th March ?
[Galaxy S II General] Okur90:
The issue is that they have to decompile proprietary sources used by the camcorder. Samsung meant it to be just the opposite of open source - a closed box. So it's no easy feat. Otherwise, codeworkx would have implemented it by now...

---------- Post added at 10:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:37 PM ----------

Video codecs.

A few updates to apps.

A few changes under the hood.

Overall, better experience bar the sideways scrolling (that would depend on your kernel with the 9 March build).

Edit: To be honest scrolling is alright with the 25 March build for some people but others are complaining a lot. Mine is erratic. Good one boot, but quite sticky after another.

hey guys!! i am juz wondering that how we can update to the lastest version (my version is 20120318). Cuz ive tried to update by Rom Manager, but it required the Premium version.

And when i download that Premium one, i cant delete the free one to install the Premium one.

Can anybody help plzz???
[Galaxy S II General] Okur90:
Read the very first page. I would stay away from Rom Manager. It's not fully compatible with the Galaxy S2 4.0. Just download the ROM from the webpage by using the phone and then flash manually form the Recovery. Instructions on first page again.

[Galaxy S II General] zaid786:
Has anyone had this problem before in which upgrading to a new build (e.g. today I went from 25 to 26) and after rebooting the phone from recovery it won't boot into cm9? I cant even go back into recovery! The only thing I can do to fix it is to reload the OS from odin using resurrection. This has happened twice now on the 24 and 26 build and I downloaded the update straight on to my internal sd card from the official cm9 links. What is strange is if i redownload the update from my pc and transfer it to my sd card it works fine once updated? Does anyone know why this happens because I lose all my apps and OS settings and have to reinstall from scratch :-(
[Galaxy S II General] dannyly8:
So can I know that how u can update ur version without rom manager?

Thanks for ur advice!! ^^
[Galaxy S II General] niko1986:
Use a file manager which can access the root directory of your phone, try ES File Explorer; make sure to turn on root explorer in Settings.

From there go to /system/app/ and long press rommanager.apk and select uninstall or delete. Free pre-installed version should then be gone.
[Galaxy S II General] jcasares:
I have the same battery and no way get those times. :P

My GPS does not seem to work in latest build. I have flashed the GPS patch, but it still does not lock on. Tested using GPS status app from market.
[Galaxy S II General] niko1986:
I agree about ROM manager. Good app I was recommend is GooManager, no flashing or backing up or any fancy functions. Checks for updates for your phone and can download the latest CM9 mirror in app. Then its upto you to flash from there.
