I have one bug that when I enter my room or any place it doesn't always connect to the wifi. Or if I didn't use my phone for a while . Have to turn on and off the wifi for it to work. Not a biggy but would be cool if that would be fixed.

Anyone else has it too???
[Galaxy S II General] pietjepuk:
Had the same as well, the phone just didn't see any network altough it normally detects about 7.
[Galaxy S II General] xeenon:
Iam using it too with cm9.

But on ics you cant see this in market cause the "incompatibility".

I think its easier to spam a thread as searching and reading a very good visible link

You can still use adb. You need Google's drivers which are included in the sdk (which you need for adb) open the sdk manager to download latest drivers.

Can't recall if you do or don't need the samsung drivers. I would imagine you do. You can find them stand alone through google, or simply install kies, they are included. Disable USB debugging and plug in phone, let it install drivers. Then unplug, enable USB debugging and let it install drivers. You should be okay to use adb after that

Question regarding the broken USB (known issue), does it only affect MTP, or also USB as a mass storage?

Thanks

Thanks I'm trying this right now.

Since my phone only managed 6hours just turned on purely yesterday! @.@

Is there any other particular settings I need (apart from wifi which I have set as unticked-manual) for the sgsII cm9? I've ticked the -disable Samsung's own power management like it advised....anything else sam?

How long does the battery last for you guys? On a full charge assurer night after a day I would have too charge it the next night

Sent from heaven
[Galaxy S II General] pewpewbangbang:
I charge every night......but that's like with every smartphone. I can get like a good 4 hours display time before needing to charge again. It depends though, flashing all the time now, the battery life has always been changing. Like this March 5th nightly isn't doing as well as the March 4th nightly, but i've bee on Wi-Fi a lot less and traveling more and using 3G so that might be why.

On the iPhone i can pull off 2 full days but i still charge it every night
[Galaxy S II General] dirn1111:
How is the battery life?

I listened to music and it drained twice as fast as the stable GB roms

(normally it would drain 2% an hour, but 4% in 40 minutes)

so it is quite bad.
and Rom easily heats up, any work around?
[Galaxy S II General] xaznxplaya:
Bah on CM7, I was getting close to 2 days, I guess it's still in early stage?
[Galaxy S II General] pewpewbangbang:
For you to decide......battery life is good IMO, even on gingerbread ROMS, best i could do was around 5 hours display to possibly 6 on a full day use.

I have this problem. For some reason it's always after I physically put the phone down and pick it back up it the screen doesn't turn on. I had thought it was my extended battery that I bought during the same time I tried ICS - that it didn't fit correctly, bit that doesn't seem like the problem.

[Galaxy S II General] stealthj:
hmm oh well..

Anyways, is Gapps basically the same google apps i would download from the market? (gmail, maps etc)....

I'm wondering because usually when i upgrade, i do not flash the latest Gapps, i just flash the updated CM9 build...

What do you guys usually do when you upgrade to the next release? download a new Gapps too? wiping dalvik and cache partition?
[Galaxy S II General] alexeiw123:
its more than the google apps on the market, its all the parts that allow you to sign in with your google account, integrate your contacts, the essential Android experience apps, like the market itself.

I flash latest Gapps every time I flash an update.
[Galaxy S II General] akas84:
In the latest builds I haven't need to flash them. It's working ok! ;)
[Galaxy S II General] alexeiw123:
Yeah I think at some point the Gapps stopped needing to be flashed with each build, I just still do it out of habit, doesn't hurt and takes 5 seconds.

which modem to use for my phone ? please see this

i've been using my phone past some days with CM9 , but everyone here claims that they have good battery life . i have a drain of 50 % in 6 hours ( somewhat like gingerbread)

i know everyone's phone is based on different modems ( blah blah blah ) but still which modem are the widely used ones for good battery ?
[Galaxy S II General] freemini:
Looks like someone is about to get owned in the dev thread. I predict infraction and/or "LOGS OR GTFO!"

I've been using LPH modem since it came out and it's just fine. For example it gave me a battery warning yesterday at 6-7PM and it was at 10% this morning. Using latest nightly.

GPS lock is only 900m accuracy... any way to improve this?
[Galaxy S II General] freemini:
That's not GPS. That's cellular triangulation. GPS is max 20m accuracy. Give it some time(5 or more minutes) and it's gonna lock.
[Galaxy S II General] Net.silb:

You can also try gps control sirf star from market (turn gps on for useing).

[Galaxy S II General] shumo:
for modems it really differs on region and operator

for example on GB everybody was saying wow modem XXKI4 is the best of the best . Most of the people on xda said that . For me the data was dropping . I then tried another modem ( i forgot the name ) and i didn't get any drops . The thing is that the modem that was good for me was not good for anybody else :))

as with the LPH modem ... for me ( romania - orange ) everything seems fine . One thing i noticed with lph modem is that for me it gives me A LOT ( and when i say a lot i mean about 4 times much ) of svnet dormancy and svnet wakelocks then other modems . This i say in the app betterbatterystats .

In "galaxy s ii original development" section there is a thread for modems . Best you would read people's posts to compare results .

Unfortunately i do not know much else to tell you as i am as much in the dark regarding modems as you are .

PS: before starting to flash moidems make sure you backup your EFS folder somehow . normally flashing a modem should never delete your efs folder but it happened to me . Why i don't know . it's better to backup

PS 2: i have no ideea if on CM9 you can flash any modem . Better investigate it before starting to flash before doing something that might break your device .
[Galaxy S II General] rnksarda:
i am from india basically so i dont know which modem is the best since not many from india are into CM9

just out of curiousity :

which modem are u using ?

---------- Post added at 01:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:03 PM ----------

eh,i guess we can

the modems are available on the first page

there is no other way to get a good battery life (as of now)

Data connection problems have not been solved with a clean install, but when I switched a sim card the problem was solved, so I am getting a new sim today. Thanks for the help!
[Galaxy S II General] Jimmykwliu:
Looks nice will give it a go later tonight
[Galaxy S II General] sadonlyone:
same results here like shumo with modems. LPH modem seems to be very appropriate to our provider (orange-romania). I flashed modem always with default cwm from cm7 and never were problems about EFS (of course is always a backup there).
[Galaxy S II General] shumo:
i am using the default modem that came with cm9

because it works for me . just that it gives me these wakelocks but i don't care about them
[Galaxy S II General] rnksarda:
thanks !

any idea how is LP6 modem interms of battery ?
[Galaxy S II General] sadonlyone:
LPH is a little bit better...
[Galaxy S II General] vegaznc:
There's no default modem with CM9.

It just keep the one you have previously.
[Galaxy S II General] shumo:
oh i did not know that

i am currently on lph

i guess it was installed with the previous rom i tried before using cm9

While reading some posts here i'm getting the impression that some users have fully lost their brains and are not able to do simple things like reading OP.

Is this the way the humanity is driving along?

If yes, is someone able to ship me to moon or mars?

I'm sick of this world.

Let's make it simple:

We're putting our whole freetime into developing and debugging just for you and didn't demand anything.

Till now!

From now on we're demanding that EVERY user who wants to post something here READS THE FULL OP, USES HIS BRAIN, AND TRYS TO NOT BEING A IDIOT as reward for our hard work.

If this doesn't work, we're going to make this ROM a paid one as compensation for the pain some of you are doing to us day by day.

[Galaxy S II General] PunkOz:
I havn't used this ROM since January builds! I installed it again and I gotta say I'm pretty amazed with the progress!

I've never wrote useless stuff on development thread and this is the thread to ask questions if im right. So.. If I remember right youtube app was included in gapps.zip but it isn't, is this normal? Not like it bothers me I just want to know if I downloaded the right .zip I'm not used to the Nightlies since I only used CM7 once.

And another question so I don't make another post later, the bug list doesn't say video playback not working, only video recording, but I can't open any video from the Gallery is this normal? I havn't tried downloading a video player from the market but I think videoplayers from market aren't hardware accelerated and videos play really slow.

PD: Anyone know if the AOSPSGS2 is still up? Or they're working with CM guys now :O

Good luck getting the kernel sources I saw the post on the main page! Again good luck and pretty sick ROM!

Greetings from México amigos :D
[Galaxy S II General] rezinomed:
Hi there, I'm testing the rom for quite some time flawlessly and, besides the reported bugs, I've found a rare problem occurring sometimes, of which I have not seen trace in the whole thread.

This happened only 5-6 times in 10+ days of testing: when waking the phone with the Home button, it doesn't wake at all. In addition, trying then to wake it with the power button does not wake it at all, and there is no other solution than removing the battery to unlock the phone from this "coma".

I have not tried to:

- Call the phone to see if an "external event" could wake it (didn't think about it)

- Read the logs (ye, shame on me, but it always happened when i was miles away from civilization)

Other details:

- This has not happened since i upgraded to 20120304 (I was on 20120301 the last time the coma occurred)

- It may be just a fortuitous combination of events, as I said it just happened a few times.

- Edit: I reported this happens when waking the phone with the home button, but I don't know how significant this could be, since 80% of times i wake my phone with it.

In case the coma would happen again I will immediately do what i put in the "undone" list, meanwhile I just wanted to ask: is anybody else experiencing this? What else can i try in case this happens again to have a full vision of what is causing the issue?

Thanks in advance for any useful advice.

HW codecs supports only MP4(AOSP only supports this format) at the moment. The other formats do play under sw decoding. Use MxPlayer or Dice.
[Galaxy S II General] codeworkx:
Because it's available on market. No need to include it.
[Galaxy S II General] Gustopher:
Yes, I find this occasionally, often accompanied by a dramatic drop in battery. I attribute it to being on a ROM that isn't yet fully complete and is a small price to pay.

Rather than pull the battery, you can also press and hold the power button for ten seconds or more - that should restart the phone.
[Galaxy S II General] Hassi94:
http://teamhacksung.org/wiki/index....to_death_.28won.27t_turn_on.29.2C_any_fix_.3F

To reboot I think you just hold your power button down for 20 seconds or something. Worked for me when it happened earlier. I can also confirm it's happened only once to me, and it was the one time I tried waking my phone with the home button instead of the power button. If this had any relevance I'm not sure but...

The problem is the issue doesn't happen always, it's very random, like this morning the miss sent me some texts, i didnt recieve them, so am quiet confident the issue is there, just cannot isolate its exact cause, as am just a basic user myself, hoping that stock will be better, but I hate the fact that stock, cannot provide notification without showing the id of the texter on status bar.

Not sure to have seen any post about this issue.

It is quite new, and can't remember when it started. I am running cm9 nightly 0305, with no mods of any kind.

When my device reboot, the screen where I am supposed to type my PIN code appears just a few seconds, then never come back. This means that if i don't type my code very quickly, then I have no more any screen to type it. I then shall go to security seetings and disable PIN code.

As this issue is still here and I can't solve it, in fact I disabled PIN code.

Anyone having same issue or any idea why it appears ?

TY for any hint
[Galaxy S II General] FordT:
I don't have that issue, my PIN screen stays open quite long, especially if I get distracted by work while I try the newest nightly :-)

But usually the PIN screen should appear again if you try to make a call. As a workaround, you could call a free number or your mailbox.
[Galaxy S II General] TheSaw:
Honestly, I wouldn't say that video playback is fixed. Yes, it's much much better, and some of them work fine with dice player. But in my opinion it's "fixed" when all, or at least more file formats are supported, AND supported by the default player, not some 3rd party one. There's still work, but keep up the good work ;).
