I don't want to be addressed as a "white knight" but i seriously hate people that only complains.

Codeworkx is working on our device, free of charge, he's giving everyone in this forum a chance to try a pure AOSP build of Android on our phone, a phone that only runs Samsung flavored Android, and what i read? People complaining because he doesn't update, or because there's problems, or simply because he's answering badly after being annoyed by lots of people that kept asking him in private and in the Dev thread, a dev thread spammed by people asking for help and fixes, or reporting bugs on an alpha build.

I don't like his manners but he owns all the right to do it since we're leeching his work, and anyone not liking his behavior can change rom or try another ICS leaked build.
[Galaxy S II General] PiracyX:
Thank you very much :) I will remember that.
[Galaxy S II General] svceon:
lol, you should hang yourself xD

GL with your TW ICS awesomeness...oh wait, when it comes out. you dont have to love him or what he does, simply dont, but dont bother being around.

BTW Codeworkx is one of the great resposible persons for the great aftermarket comunity android has, without people like him a lot of devices would be stock-ridiculous...

And here is my not-so-good post to flame an user. And taking inertia has an advantage, i want to thank Codeworkx and Xplodwild (and the others involved in this project as well) for their "hobby" aka side-work... so, Thank You.

[EDIT]

Just wanted to make a stupid comparison of this kind of user as Konstantinos. You sound like a christian that hates god... or a Diesel lover who runs on Gasoline... Or even a smoker that hates tobaco... or even a Vegan who loves red meat

What's the latest on video recording? Wiki says "Camera: video recording broken".

Is this info still valid or is video recording now working?
[Galaxy S II General] :
Guys seriously have you not read a word what Pulser has said...Leave with the comments about flaming and who does not like who and who is a troll or not and keep this thread only for CM9 discussion....You really do not want Pulse Norris now roundhouse kicking you with an infraction...;)

And on that note just flashed the latest build and what i have read about in this thread is correct...Now that you have it you do not want to go back to GB..awesome so far guys..Will report with issues later on...Thank you Teamhacksung.
[Galaxy S II General] Bl@ck:
is still broken
[Galaxy S II General] eseregin:
Funny guy codeworkx :-)

Great humor, "platform independent" :-)

A lot of improvements in rep, so thanks you all guys from team.

:-)

I can see, video stop working at all - good sign, "the darkest night just before sunrise".

Though mx player works well as previous.

[Galaxy S II General] SpartacusJr:
first of all: thank you for this! I've tried a lot and this one really works fine so far. my question is: what can expext with the next updates? what are you going to fix? what can we expect?

an update every 4 days, right?
[Galaxy S II General] xBlackDroid:
Come on the changelog is on first post

[Galaxy S II General] d_sam:
Can anyone tell me how to instal Apex launcher as a system app.

TIA
[Galaxy S II General] rekrapg:
Once Samsung release their kernel sources, all the issues caused by lack of source (Video, etc) will be resolved. Until then, they are doing their best to work around the current issues, and provide 'standard' Cyanogenmod functionality.

Also, there cannot be any 'release' time given. For it to be released, it has to be considered stable, and I doubt the CM team will class it as stable until they have the kernel sources and have all the hardware functioning as it should. As such, no release date can be given until after they get kernel sources from Samsung and determine how much extra work is required to get to the stable point.

That said, everyone working on CM has another job, they create CM as a hobby and for the love of what they do. Expect the release date to be 'when it's done' and not before. If you don't like that answer, choose another ROM. Me, i'm staying right here in this space :)

Great work CM team loving how fast it's coming along, wish Samsung would hurry their asses up and give you some love!

Anyone please!?

Anyone??
[Galaxy S II General] BAWS:
+1 for the first one. Very annoying to not be able to change volume while in a call.
[Galaxy S II General] zekurosu:
guys,

im currently on CM9 build dated 20 Feb 2012 ... can i just flash the latest CM9 build dated 18 March 2012? then flash gapps 17032012? then wiped cache?

thanks!
[Galaxy S II General] bluefa1con:
wipe cache and delvic cache
[Galaxy S II General] evolutiontheory:
Guess this is for phones with notification led, which the sgs2 unfortunately do not have
[Galaxy S II General] zekurosu:
Thanks! :D
[Galaxy S II General] mhanis:
Yes, just flash and then wipe cache & dalvik.
[Galaxy S II General] iekansh:
Why would they give that function in a s2 rom then?
[Galaxy S II General] freemini:
Because it's experimental? Maybe it will work with BLN, maybe it won't.
[Galaxy S II General] amozonesk:
1. yes, it's the same

2. set your custom values which suits you best

3. USB OnTheGo - various USB devices (keyboard, mouse,..) can be connected to our SGS2 via microUSB-USB adapter

Flashable modem LP7

https://www.box.com/shared/3462882b9d65ca9341ea
[Galaxy S II General] XpLoDWilD:
You're right. It's for notification LED, which the S2 doesn't have. It's just not greyed out properly.
[Galaxy S II General] SpartacusJr:
ok thanks for the answers so far. I searched for answer but didn't find one with this here:

I tried to upload a pic via facebook = not possible. wifi/3g = not possible. any idea?

just read about a sync problem, but upload etc
[Galaxy S II General] amozonesk:
0318 seems to not fit my phone, everything FCs :( have to wait for another one, hopefully i'll be luckier..

A new bug afaik, when we have more than 12 apps in a folder on home screen, and rotate the phone towards left/right, and again back to the portrait mode, the order of apps change randomly..
[Galaxy S II General] kibaa12:
so who broke cyanogen download servers :P or is that just me
[Galaxy S II General] zekurosu:
+1 ... the same thing happened in samsung ICS & AOKP roms...

somebody stated something to do about 'flash'?
[Galaxy S II General] gbohm:
worst bugreport ever
[Galaxy S II General] Yathi:
I don't understand how there are so many noobs who come here and demand FM, or Video recording and other stuff as if they are sponsoring the development or something. Codeworkxx has amazing patience!!! There was another noob claiming TV out is important. If that is so important WHY COME TO CM9??!!
[Galaxy S II General] Sichroteph:
Let's face it, samsung did a poor job on his ICS port. A lot of people wants a better experience, even noobs.
[Galaxy S II General] blair287:
Root explorer now says read onlyfor all root folders I've given it super user
[Galaxy S II General] gbohm:
then change to rw.... there is a button and it is mentioned in the changelog
[Galaxy S II General] amozonesk:
it wasn't a bugreport, just statement. if you've nothing clever to say, you shouldn't waste your time here and better find a few real friends :)
[Galaxy S II General] Puckey:
@amazonesk

Try wiping cache/dalvik and fix permissions. Your phone isn't any different to other gs2's out there!
[Galaxy S II General] espenfjo:
One slightly unrelated question.

On ICS, is it really necessary to wipe dalvik?

Every time a system file is changed android will regenerate all those dex files anyeway?
[Galaxy S II General] jeremija8:
First of all I'm sorry if someone already asked this, I searched but didn't find anything.

I changed my dpi and everything works perfectly, only thing that bothers me is on notification bar there is space between notifications. It looks quite ugly :/

Has anyone managed to resolve this and how?
[Galaxy S II General] Projew:
Yeah, by changing your dpi back to standard. :)
[Galaxy S II General] jeremija8:
lol, and I was just happy becouse LCD density modder pro has fixed my market issue. Gonna go with ugly notification xD
[Galaxy S II General] Puckey:
When flashing a new build you should definitely wipe dalvik to avoid problems. When you already have issues it's worth a try, wether or not it's necessary.
[Galaxy S II General] BadWolfy:
Do I have to wipe data/factory reset while using the noob-proof odin method?
[Galaxy S II General] Sckank:
I've used 3 months going through all the rom's and CM9 is really the best one! Checkrom is also good, sure, but it aint in the same leage as cm. Just to say it like this; if cm's leage exploded it would take three days before the other one's heard the sound!!!! Big thanks to all the dev's!!! :)

Edit: big special thanks to codeworks for his patience. Glad you're sticking with us!!!
[Galaxy S II General] oguzh4n:

[Galaxy S II General] Ghashul:
I just upgraded to the new nightly, and it's the same problem. Anyone has experienced and perhaps solved this issue?
[Galaxy S II General] mhanis:
I'm always wipe data before flashing new rom. Works well for me.
[Galaxy S II General] pimser:
come on!! this info is nonsence!

battery type, screenshot? otherwise dont spam this thread.

sorry, of course this is spam too ;)

edit: sorry didnt see your sarcasm off
[Galaxy S II General] gabx:
On last 0318 nightly, I do not like one of the new added feature. When changing any setting, or even other action (had this when opening a new email), there is a red framework around my screen, flashing very briefly.

I couldn't find anywhere in the settings how to disable it. Does anyone know? Or maybe it is an issue and not a feature?

Thank you for any info.
[Galaxy S II General] TeraJL:
System settings > Developer Options > Strict mode enabled (Disable it)
[Galaxy S II General] iamnotkurtcobain:
There are now over 10000 signatures achieved with the petition... Come on Samsung release the damn sources. ****
[Galaxy S II General] alexeiw123:
That sounds like strict mode under developer options.

On a side note, while checking that, I see there is options to root and unroot on latest build under developer options.
[Galaxy S II General] espenfjo:
You say 'should', but can you say why?

I am asking since it seems the cache regenerates every time systems files are changed.

I know should is a must with GB, but is it really the same for ICS?
[Galaxy S II General] Kayno9:
Im on nightly build 20120314, default modem.

Auto rotation does not work for me. When i switch it on it will rotate to landscape when i rotate the phone but will not rotate back to portrait no matter what i do.

has anyone else had this problem before and has it been reported. I tried searching but did not find anything recent.

appreciate your help

Thanks mate! It works now
[Galaxy S II General] alexeiw123:
Tying to upload a screenshot of the new root options found under developer. Apparently xda doesn't like PNG images, which ICS screenshots are. Oh well.

Tried choosing root > disabled, but root explorer still works. Maybe a reboot is needed, maybe just a menu placeholder.
[Galaxy S II General] MilesTEG1:
Ok, thanks.

I have ICS nightly of the 14 march, so I can flash the new one with wiping only the cache.

I don't really understand what is the problem (I'm not english, so I understand there is a problem, but not understand what is);

Is someone can upload the gapps somewhere else that on http://goo-inside.me/gapps

because I can't download the file from my SGS II, i've got loop in loarding the page for the download (when I have the "please wait 10s before download"), and on the network at my work, I can't access to the page...

I will be very greatfull :p

Thanks in advance :)
[Galaxy S II General] spirouzbe:
It seems i have the same prob over here with the addition that BT connection is lost with my car when gps is fixing. The weird thing is that the call is not lost.

So to be more clear:

1. Phone sets BT connection with car just fine

2. Person calls me and everything is working fine

3. GPS starts fixing position

4. Bluetooth drops car connection

5. Phone keeps ongoing call fine

6. GPS stops fixing position

7. Bluetooth comes back with ongoing call still going fine

I hope its clear enough ^^

I know you need a logcat but i didnt had the oportunity to do one this morning. ill try the afternoon when getting back home.
[Galaxy S II General] wazza_s:
It does work if you pull the phone away from your ear and the screen turns on, then use the volume buttons. Not ideal, but it works.
[Galaxy S II General] gabx:
Nup. Already tried it, but doesn't disable this feature.
[Galaxy S II General] Puckey:
The phone only guesses how much juice is left, after some time it should "calibrate" itself.
[Galaxy S II General] NOWE:
Stop talking about kernels.

Noobs like me become confused.
[Galaxy S II General] archer797:
While not mandatory, it is a "best practice" to clear dalvik cache. As far as I am aware, it generates cache for items which are not there already in dalvik cache. It is better to have the most updated and recent items in this cache rather than old ones.
[Galaxy S II General] Sckank:
The modem works just fine, but I cant get the kernel to work :(
[Galaxy S II General] Vaedryn:
LP7 / LPQ Kernel are not for CM9

SGS II Cyanogen Mod
[Galaxy S II General] Ghashul:
Here's a logcat of what happens to me as I open Google Maps, it drops the connection, I leave Google Maps, it opens the connection again. Hope this can help find out the underlying cause.
[Galaxy S II General] gbohm:
i have no idea why u would do that nonsense but my best guess is that the partition tables of cm and a sammy rom are different you could mod a cm9 for odin rom and include the kernel or put it in a cwm compatible zip beside all of this is still the question for the why ....
[Galaxy S II General] Darkmentos:
Hi everyone! :)

I'm reading in this thread since months and my problems were always fixed just by reading the hints in this thread. I thank all developers and dedicated users for their voluntary work! :)

But unfortunately since many weeks I have still one problem left and can't solve that just by reading and searching in this thread, so finally I registered to xda-developers to get help from this great community.

My problem is: Whatever I do, I can’t get my to GPS to connect since the first CM9-nightlies. I already tried every Modem, installed apps like „FasterFix“ and „GPS Status“ and also tried h3llstorm's gps fix – but nothing is working.

Has anyone here an idea what I can do else? :confused:
[Galaxy S II General] NOWE:
more noobs will flood in here

http://www.osnews.com/story/25694/CyanogenMod_9_alpha_puts_Samsung_to_shame

I suggest a dedicated CM9 section in sgs2 forum.

So we noobs can distribute our dumb questions over more threads.
[Galaxy S II General] @denny:
upgraded to 0318 2 days aga and have a strange problem, my phone has twice over the to days gone off/coma sleep and the only way to get it back on is to reboot with power button , it also loses a lot of battery when in that state and feels quite hot...anyone have any ideas:confused:
[Galaxy S II General] Orlins89:
Is there a way to keep recovery touch on reboot?
[Galaxy S II General] Kayno9:
I have the same problem since first nightly.

I'm from the UK if that helps.

Deep Sleep issue

My phone doesnt seem to enter Deep Sleep. Wiped the Dalvik Cache en Cache but it didnt solve a thing. Do I need to do a full-wipe or is there another solution?
[Galaxy S II General] szimi71:
Put out the battery for one minute!

[Galaxy S II General] raptor22:
Or you can try reflashing the rom itself to get the battery used to OS. Worked once for me.
[Galaxy S II General] mfenetre:
I had the same problem, I was stuck in a loop on the download page with the 10 seconds countdown, the download never started on the phone... (I used the stock browser) I tried using Firefox but no luck too...

In the end I've downloaded it on my computer and used AirDroid to transfer it on my phone. (or you can use the dropbox url someone provided above)
[Galaxy S II General] tenkian:
I had the same problem with the LPQ modem. On O2 UK and LPQ modem my phone would not enter deep sleep. I flashed modem LPH back and now it works fine.
[Galaxy S II General] Bommeke:
Pulling out the battery for 1 minute like szimi71 said worked for me. Muchos gracias!

[Galaxy S II General] seigneurao:
Hello.

I have done some search on this 1000+ posts topic, yet I can't seem to find the answer to my (seemingly simple enough, though) question :

I have noticed a difference between installation instructions from the first post of this thread, and the CM Wiki : teamhacksung.org/wiki/index.php/Experimental:GT-I9100:How_to_install

In the wiki they instruct to flash gapps fixer and face unlock, which has disappeared from the forum thread.

While being perfectly aware that the wiki states the information to be "Correct as of 20th February, 2012, GMT", thus possibly outdated, can someone accurately tell me if these steps (gapps fixer and face unlock flash) are still relevant, or not ?

Thanks in advance !
[Galaxy S II General] Nomoi:
That's because you no longer have to do that. Face unlock works out of the box, Gapps work after you've flashed the latest version. The wiki is not up to date I guess.
