Not on the Stock Kernel, I believe Siyah supports BLN however.

Running a custom Kernel may cause you other issues however.
[Galaxy S II General] Scuttsy:
It's more of a visual fix not functioning. I don't use face unlock so it's just black unused space. It's not dire but with small things like gradients being fixed and people thinking it's close to a release candidate it would be nice to have those problems resolved.

It'd be good to have a lockscreen wall before themes.
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
Gradient got fixed cuz it was just a bad png file so it was as easy as making a new one :)
[Galaxy S II General] blinde:
Something is consuming my battery rather badly and I think it is media server which takes about 12%. I didn't noticed this in builds from early april (Those few early builds had excellent battery life btw). I have turned picasa sync off and I don't use google play music. I've used Player pro for a year and i've never faced this with it. I haven't really changed anything in my phone usage, just updated the latest nightly and this bad battery life just sucks.

Is there something that I can do for it? How to kill or disable it?
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
Might be because of the mount point change, try clearing data from the media server app, then rebooting to let it rescan, that should fix the paths and stop it from bugging out. If that doesn't do it, sometimes bad files cause the media scanner to freak out so you might have to check on your files.
[Galaxy S II General] blinde:
This makes sense and I've thought about it but I just don't know how to clear data from media server app. Can't find it. Help needed :)

Is it "Media Storage" app?
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
Go to Settings->Apps, Hit the 'All' tab, find Media Server, click on it, there will be a button that says clear data, hit that, reboot.
[Galaxy S II General] blinde:
Tried it and all I could find is Media Storage, no Media Server.
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
Oops, Media Storage is the right thing, sorry. :)
[Galaxy S II General] blinde:
Ok, thanks. I'll try that and hope that it solves it. What readings should that show on media server if things run normal?

hey codeworkx , i notice one thing since the latest nightly ( i think it is because of the sd card changes )

now nandroid backup will give an error at the end saying that it cannot find the path sdcard\android.secure and it says it will skip backup of apps on the sd card

never had this issue before

although it gives this error it will finish anyway .

Should this be a problem in case i want to restore a backup ?

You use resurrection edition?: http://codeworkx.de/download/cyanogenmod/galaxys2/cm-9-20120420-ODIN-galaxys2.tar.md5

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, wipe cache and dalvik-cache

- Reboot into CM9

- Follow above steps to update CM9 to lastest available version (Upgrading from earlier version of CyanogenMod 9)

Terrific work out here with the new build!

I've find that neither stock gallery nor 3rd party ones (i.e. Quickpic) are able to show .flv files in the list. Searching them thru RootExplorer shows that they are indeed present and also fully playable (with both video players: stock and QP).

Is this "by design" or is there a fix (codecs or something else) to have them shown in the gallery?

Thanks!

Anyone coming from a pre-0419 build to 0422, no need for a full wipe. Clearing cache/dalvik should do.
[Galaxy S II General] ronni.rasmussen:
Clearing cache/dalvik should do :)
[Galaxy S II General] semilung:
very low USB transfer speed

I've a problem with the CM9 nightly build 0422 version: the transfer speed of USB is very low, about 2 MB/s, for both internal and external SD cards, furthermore the GS2 deads sometimes during the transfering. I don't have such a problem with the origial samsung rom either of 2.x or the latest 4.0.3 versions.

Since this is the first time I am using a CM9 rom, I am not sure whether it is a bug of the rom. Or do I need to install some special driver on the PC?
[Galaxy S II General] Kristion:
Evertything is "ok", it's a normal issue. There's nothing wrong with your drivers.

Did anyone try phone encryption with one of the latest nightlies ?

Has anyone further information about how phone encryption works in detail ?

For me only writing to internal/external SD is slow around 2 MB/sec in UMS-mode. Reading from internal/external SD is much faster > 10 MB/sec.

Hi,

I have 0402 version installed. Sometimes I get Kernel Panic UM. I tried and I can boot on recovery mode.

If I want to upgrade to latest nightly version do I need to do something special since I have Kernel Panic UM sometimes?

Thanks.
[Galaxy S II General] 0355:
Did someone see this one posted across the "flamewar"?
[Galaxy S II General] JacquesR:
If you upgrade, you'll be replacing your kernel. No, you don't have to do anything special, and upgrading will hopefully fix your panics too.
[Galaxy S II General] shumo:
just do the normal upgrade

meaning flash the rom and then clear cache and dalvik cache and reboot

should be fine

Hi guys, my phone is pretty messed up now.

I was using the CM9 20120407 build and liked it. I thought id update to a newer build and see how it was so i flashed the 20120420 build. I did not like the build so i decided id flash back to my old one but when i tried, the phone went into a boot loop. I tried reflashing both roms, i formatted memory card, cache, everything but it still wouldnt come out of the bootloop. Then i flashed XXLPS from odin and the bootloop finally ended, but the phone is still on the CM9 20120420 rom. And now i cant mount my USB storage to my comp so i cant even flash a new build or anything.

Can someone figure out what i can do to get the USB storage to mount or why these bootloops happened and how i could fix them?

[Galaxy S II General] nsmart:
You can flash gapps same way you do with a nightly. Normally no need for fullwipe. Just cache/dalvik.
[Galaxy S II General] cloak:
I hope so, but I think it will not.

The camera firmware Sammy supplied is very crapy. Till now a there is no proper version for the Samsung camera module. Some phones are supplied with a better Sony module and firmware. Perhaps you are not a lucky Sony module owner.

[Galaxy S II General] cloak:
I do not know if you can install an app in cm wich will do the job. But with a Sammy rom you must dial

sorry if its a nooby question :o but it seems that somewhere in the last few nightly's my comp started asking if i wanted to eject the MTP device which is my galaxy. It never did that before when i was connected as MTP. ... my question is- does this really matter?

thanks for any help...
[Galaxy S II General] cloak:
No it is a hardware and firmware problem wich only can solved by updating the module firmware. I have tried a com. Samsung camera firmware update apk, but the apk will not run with cm9. You have to install a Samsung standard rom first.
[Galaxy S II General] darksideno1:
thanks.

but it's a bit then nuthin '. if your phone has a TouchWiz ga then why not use it?

cm9 will need the patch or something like that for users who want to use the touchwiz ;)
[Galaxy S II General] fstof:
okay so let me get this straight...

1. The problem is hardware/firmware

2. It's fixable by updating the firmware

3. I cannot do with CM9 ROM, I need to have Sammy Stock

4. Once firmware is upgraded, I can reflash CM9 and all should be well then

5. Where do I get the firmware update?

Thanks for the info
[Galaxy S II General] cloak:
No it is on a lower level.
[Galaxy S II General] RagingHarry:

music volume problem

this thing is really annoying me and im sure most of u also...

when listening to music the the native player-after one song the next song will be played is a higher volume..not just a notch but maybe close to full volume...

then, stil, this is a know bug, when someone texted u or a notification or alarm will go off, the volume of the song will be lowered down and will not go back up until u press the volume...

so annoying, right?

[Galaxy S II General] TheReverend210:
I have a question, but first a preemptive yes, I've searched, yes, I've got back about 30 pages in this thread looking, yes, I've wiped (first just cache as I upgraded from nightly 1304, then full factory reset) and yes, I'm running stock CM kernel.

Now, my problem is I cannot get the wifi to turn on after upgrading to nightly 2204. Press the notification toggle, nothing happens, go into the menu and manually flick the button it says "turning wifi on" and the toggle just stays at "off" and nothing happens.

Any suggestions?

EDIT: Rolling back to a nandroid of 1304, it works again. I remember now why I didn't upgrade, it didn't work on 2004 either, so I rolled back to 1304 then too.
[Galaxy S II General] chowlala:

You can try using a different governor. Personally, I'm happy with the 'elastic' scrolling and keep Ondemand governor and I have found scrolling best with stock kernel. If you want to use another kernel, e.g. siyah, I have found Lulzactive to give good scrolling.

is your phone model I9100T or I9100 ?

if it is I9100T and your APN setting is right that's mean you have modem problem, the only modem that works with I9100T model is vodafone I9100TDUKJ1 or telstra I9100TDVKF2, the vadafone one is newer, i can give you the modem if you like.

If you have I9100 model then go to this website and check your APN setting.

I haven't left mine uncharged for 3 days but i've gone 13 hours and 4 horus 50 minutes of display time using the latest build and XXKI4 modem. XXLP1 ate up my battery as all the other ICS modems did.

Im using a live wallpaper right now and can still get around 3 hrs display time with around 13 hours battery. But yea, battery life on static wallpaper is really good for me, better than most GB ROMS. There was only once when i reached the amazing 6 hour display time.

My phone is a 9100T, originally sourced from Crazy John's; Vodafone branded. Up until recently I was only able to get a usable data connection when using either DUKF4 or DUKJ1 modem, but I am getting as good perhaps slightly better connectivity using the ICS modems. (Currently XXK8, and CM7 nightly 116)

I cross-referenced the APN settings obtained from ausdroid and also from the Crazy Johns site.

Yea, I use SMS a lot (almost all day long) so I use display a lot. CM9 is much better about battery-lasting comparing it to CM7.

You could try terminal emulator or use a file manager with root permissions like Root Explorer or ES File Explorer.

For terminal emulator, you could try the following (I'm just not sure about the syntax of the mount command -- not really a techie person but I follow and remember techie stuff pretty good).

su
mount -o rw,remount /system
rm /system/lib/libsomxcore.so
rm /system/lib/libstagefrighthw.so

reboot

Now, after you've done that, let me know if it works. If it does, I'm switching over to CM9 from CM7! Actually, I really just need to know if Netflix will work.
