Hey flashed latest nightly 605, and havent been able to get any SMS notifications. They show up when I open the app, but no vibrate, sound etc. I checked all settings, wiped data, wiped cache, still no dice. This has been posted a couple of times but no reply
[Galaxy S II General] Konpon96:
I'm using 0605 nightling. I noticed one issue - camera autofocus doesn't work. However, in Camera ICS app from Market, it works. I also have one question - as far as I understand, in the latest nightling CM team and teamhacksung merged ability to change action of long-pressed menu button. Where can I change it? Or maybe CM team doesn't merged it into Settings yet?
[Galaxy S II General] dchn2:
this happens to photos on picasa, not to pictures stored locally.

QuickPic has its merits (free and beautiful UI that blends well with ICS), but it cannot view online folders yet. And quickpic is not all that quick in loading (class 10 sandisk microsd and it still loads thumbnails at snail pace).

---------- Post added at 12:58 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:49 AM ----------

autofocus is functional here (running 0605 nightly). i would recommend clearing data of camera app (under setting > apps > all > camera).

I haven't come across "change action of long-pressed menu button" in changlog. is it something you saw in OpenDesign?

Nope, known issue.

Can someone suggest a good touch recovery to use... should one use the standard cmw touch (tho I remember previously is had some issues), or go with something like siyah...?? I don't want to have to flash siyah every time I flash a rom tho... would prefer staying on stock kernel for ease of bug reports... hence a touch recovery that will always stay...

Reason for this is my power button is almost dead... would want something that doesn't require the power button to select...

"Activate the flash in the camara" is related to CM9??

There has been over 4 pages of crap comments last night, quite a few totally unrelated and a few related by far.

This is the discussion topic about CM9, not about "SOS Android assistance"!

As a CM9 user I am willing to read discussions about CM9 not unrelated crap.

So I think that was the time to intervene!
[Galaxy S II General] elektroinside:
Chill down, not everybody is a genius cm9 user, some have to learn to use both the forum and the rom (maybe also the phone) . As a good cm9 user you should help others or ignore stuff you don't feel like answering, instead of acting like a cm9 discussion thread policeman, which you aren't. Seriously, chill.
[Galaxy S II General] DeathMetalMods:
Just wanted to give a short feedback to this great ROM.

I am on nightly 30.05. with Siyah 3.2.8 and I have never experienced such a fast and smooth Android. BLN works like a charme. Battety is great (5-6 % over night). Apollo music is treat. All the customizations for lockscreen, statusbar etc. really reduces fingerwork.

I went through a lot of sammyROMs and custom ROMs. Even tried CM7 and 9 several times, but it never got me until now.

As a probable speaker for the satisfied silent majority, I felt the need to contribute this feedback to the mainly bug-focused disicussion here.

Only thing I miss is the slide-to-text and slide-to-call function of the standard sammys...

Camera quality on the latest nightly build is not good, pretty mediocre.

I do have one of the same issues with tge battery as the guy before me. When i plug in the cable it doesnt start charging. To get the phone to charge i have to reboot the device. But the USB port is working because when i use odin it flashes with no problems or when i use a flash drive via USB otg adaptor, it works flawlessly, and i also cleaned the port with a contact cleaning spray. This happened since i went to ICS.

I have posted before but without any luck on the screen responsiveness in bright light. I have also read the items I found inside this thread listed under "brightness" or "sunlight", the likes of this, this, this or this one.

It is truly annoying to have an incoming call when in bright light (outside) and being unable to read who the F is calling. Is there any way to extract/copy the brightness settings of stock ROMs, which seem to be adequate?

Could anyone please answer this question: What values should be put where in the settings menu, so the screen is responding faster to bright light?

Thank you :)

[Galaxy S II General] 0355:
Simple, very simple....

there's nothing you can do with stock kernel to make the light sensor respond faster via rom setting/interface, nothing.

The problem lives in the sensor HAL and, let's also say that, in this thread this has been discussed so many times I feel sick anytime I see this story popping out again... Samsung wrote that stupid f*ing HAL and if you swap it with an opensource one you'll end up with compass going haywire. So in cm9 it has been reverted back to stock to let navigation being useful again.

At the moment (at least unless someone can write down a bright brand new HAL for our little un-friendly sensor) there's no way to have autobrightness and compass both working on an AOSP ROM.

You have one alternative, use "lux auto" from play store to override stock autobrightness and I have to say it works in a very decent way, though you have to spend some more battery juice to have it doing his job...

It's up to you.

All apps crashing

Hi all, first post, but been tinkering with smartphones for about 2 years now.

This happened before about a month ago, and I couldn't find anything on here back then either.

After boot and screen unlock I get pop-ups notifying me that background processes are crashing (gmail, talk, psocess.android, gapps, etc.) then absolutely any app I run crashes immediately.

CM9, all default settings. This started after I flashed 0605 this afternoon, from 0604.

I went back to 0604, re-flashed gapps, went back to 0605, ditto. All to no avail...

1. Has anyone else had this happen?

2. If someone has seen this before can they explain what it is? (I'd like to avoid it in the future)

3. Is there a fix? (Last time I returned to stock, root, CM9, re-install all apps (in case the corruption still existed in one of my back-ups) and restored essential data with Tbackup - SMS, couple of games)

Many thanks in advance.

PS. since originally moving to CM months ago, I haven't once had to re-charge my battery.
[Galaxy S II General] elektroinside:
Try to clear cache and dalvik, reflash latest nightly, fix permissions from Cwm, install latest gaps... If this is not working, restore factory settings from Cwm... This should work :-)

Also, do NOT restore your apps with Titanium Backup, use Google to sync and reinstall your apps.

[Galaxy S II General] Entropy512:
1) "Up to 2x" means "2x for some corner case that frequently means nothing in the real world".

2) They're pretty vague about what they did, but it sounds almost like they tweaked things to be more CPU-dependent than normal - contributing to my comment 1

3) Compiler changes often lead to instability

4) While it's not definite, a few people commented that changes like this make upstream merging a major nightmare.

Yup, and some of the description gave me the impression it wasn't even a "normal" test case for a 4430.

Camera quality on this device has always been mediocre - it is a damn cell phone, nothing about that fact has changed. (And nothing about the camera has changed for quite a while.)

If you're seeing a degradation in image quality, clean your lens. There's basically no lens protection in this device (one of many reasons it makes such a crappy camera.)

[Galaxy S II General] Byakuya88:
camera quality with samsung firmware is better than CM9, so what you say is not true....maybe because CM9 still in "Nightly"....
[Galaxy S II General] rekrapg:
Are you using any non-standard mods? ie kernel, battery mod, theme, etc? If you are just flashing CM9 and GAPPS and have followed the general steps, it should be good. I've been using CM9 since the first test build in ?December? and never had this issue. Each time I install a new build, I always follow the same procedure;

1. Reboot into Recovery

2. Install Ultimate Kernel Cleaning Script

3. Install latest CM9 Nightly

4. Install latest GAPPS

5. Go into Advanced menu, Reboot back into Recovery

6. Run Fix Permissions

7. Reboot and let it fly

I know the Ultimate Kernel Cleaning Script is not necessary if you are utlising the same kernel (in this case always what comes with ROM) but I like the certainty of knowing if i've f'kd something it's wiped. And, as mentioned, I never, ever have these kind of issues, CM9 has been smooth :)

My Brother had similar issues however, once installing a kernel not meant to CM9 (AOSP) I think it was Speedmod, but Abyss pretty sure is not for AOSP as well. If you have installed a bad mod (or one not updated/meant to work with latest CM9 nightly), can also very easily be the cause.

I would like to share my finding about the lockscreen weather not showing up or updating(or showing 0). The internet connection for the lockscreen weather was blocked by a firewall application I installed(Droidwall)!!! Anyway, for those that can't get the weather to show up or update, check if you got any kind of firewall to deny packets. In my case, because the lockscreen weather function we got on CM9 isn't an application on its own, so I figured that to allow packets for the "Android System" would allow the connection. Hope this helps for anyone as dump as me :)

Sammy ICS gets 52 fps and CM9 gets 46fps, that's a big difference if you ask me..

Also, some of the high end games (e.g. modern combat 3) lag pretty badly in CM9.

Probably a driver issue

Using the noob-proof ODIN method:

- Download CM9 Resurrection Edition

- Download GApps and put it onto your internal sdcard

- Open Odin

- Choose cm-9-XXXXXXXX-ODIN-galaxys2.tar.md5 as PDA

- Boot your phone into download mode

- Connect your device via usb to your computer

- Wait till Odin has fully recognized your phone

- Hit the start button and wait till the flash process is finished

- Device boots automatically into recovery

- Flash GApps

- Reboot into CM9

Won't this wipe my data?
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:

Can you get into recovery? If not you could download an ICS kernel such as Siyah (odin package), use it to get CWM back, then flash the nightly and hope it works, that's really your only shot anything else is gonna require a wipe.

If you can get into recovery, just reflash.

Sounds like it might be only solution, hope it works and the data isn't that important.

If you're using Siyah RC6, then be careful what you do with it. Just read that some people had some serious problems after making factory reset with that kernel. Not sure if the issues is solved or not, just saw a topic about it yesterday.
