Thank you for that post noobterminator, I could not put it better myself. Hopefully the kids will go to bed now.
[Galaxy S II General] lutanica:
Got exactly the same issue you are having !!
[Galaxy S II General] educational:
I found that if I scroll without losing contact with the screen it's perfect, no problems at all. Only when you swipe quickly and letting go as soon as you swipe it will sort of jerk a little.

i think signal is related with your modem not your ROM :rolleyes:

Can someone explain why HW is supported only by Dice player? I really prefer mx video player but it only supports SW.
[Galaxy S II General] zekurosu:
official 0325 works for me ... :D
[Galaxy S II General] danfalcas:
I've found no issues at all with touch or swiping! Maybe try to clear cache and everything, but swipe is gooooood! :D
[Galaxy S II General] estpoc:
Using hw on mx player without a problem, just played a 720p mkv. Only had to switch audio to software, as the codec wasn't supported. It isn't on gnexus also.
[Galaxy S II General] gorillaCF:
okay, just flashed official 0325 on a full wipe. gonna try it for a few days. thanks!
[Galaxy S II General] jcasares:
Aren't people expecting too much? For me the scrolling is wonderful.

Maybe coming from a BlackBerry helps... :P

And you forget it has a wonderful camera... I made an HD video in January that everyone who see it says is awesome. Why would one decide to forget about such wonderful thing available in his/her pocket is beyond me! O_o

SuperPhones will keep doing more things and taking more tasks from computers.

Talking about relevant things. Battery has improved over time. It happened to me every time I changed OS (GB > ICS > CM). It took a while to start lasting as it should. It isn't as with ICS that lasted almost 18 hs with heavy usage but it's better than GB. I'm glad about it. :)
[Galaxy S II General] vfdesignz:
Is it me or Stereo Sound is not working anymore on the latest nightly?
[Galaxy S II General] gorillaCF:

[Galaxy S II General] johnmambo:
Truth in every word. Let codeworkx and xplo work. They are doing something great here. Only thing we should do is help, when asked.
[Galaxy S II General] Coruja747:
just curiosity, anyone know where I can get LPE modem?

already searched, but nothing found on XDA / rom manager
[Galaxy S II General] VisionNN:
Scrolling is manageable, it just sucks when using swype because you cant go extremely fast. Other than that, its fine.
[Galaxy S II General] mengsuan:
Does work for me on my usual songs.
[Galaxy S II General] Ramelov:
HW IS supported by MX Player. There are some formats maybe for which HW decoders are not available but most of formats can be easily played with hardware acceleration.
[Galaxy S II General] megazz:
Well that's weird. I just get the "not supported" message. But on Dice player it plays on HW with no problem.

Cell Broadcast Messaging

Hello,

I have searched this thread and the interwebz for this. Does anyone know how to disable those annoying Cell Broadcast Messages in CM9? Since flashing the latest nightly I am not able to disable those annoying popups informing me about my data usage. I searched all menus but am not able to find that Cell Broadcast menu..

Any help will be appreciated. Thanks
[Galaxy S II General] anthony151:
I don't know if its an issue with cm9 or my modem version (UHKL1) but the reported signal level never goes higher than -89dBm even if i'm outdoors near the cell tower in either 3g or 2g. Is it like this for everyone?
[Galaxy S II General] runedrune:
Yeah its like that for everyone.
[Galaxy S II General] jhernand1102:
Take the picture and then use a file explorer to move it to your SD card....:)

---------- Post added at 09:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:08 PM ----------

Well if I'm correct -89dBm is a full signal, It will go higher if your signal degrades. the higher the number the poorer the signal. So it make sense if your close to a tower then you will always have -89dBm.
[Galaxy S II General] anthony151:
Actually -89dBm is kind of the limit of a good signal level, at least for 2g. 3g has a higher tolerance.

Depending on how close you are to a cell tower you can expect levels of up to -60dBm or more.

At any rate, a ceiling of -89dBm in the reported level doesn't matter since I can at least see it on widgets and such when it is worse than that... Stock Samsung, at least GB (don't know about stock ICS) , is really screwey in that area what with frozen values that only get updated if you're in the status screen.

Gallery is acting kinda weird lately.. when i try to open a pic... through its thumbnail... another one opens... all messes up !! Any ideas how to make it right ??

I disabled boot animation in a previous build but I couldn't find how to enable it. Should you face the same problem, perform the following steps:

1. Edit the file

/data/property/persist.sys.nobootanimation

2. Change the "1" for a "0"

3. Save the file and restart your phone

MODEM FOR LATIN AMERICA / CARIBBEAN / BRAZIL

already tested here (brazil) and it seems a lot better than XXLPH/XXLPQ

UHLPE modem - CWM flashable

UH---> Latin America, The Caribbean

just send it to /sdcard and install using CWM or ROM Manager

credits to geko95gek who provided ODIN version of this modem, I just modified it to install using CWM instead ODIN

just a temporary link, someday I will delete it from my server, so please someone download it and upload again on another file hosting
[Galaxy S II General] shayne77:
An easier method is to just delete (or rename) persist.says.nobootanimation..

I think its auto generated when you don't have a boot animation...

Okay..

Last night I tried to play some music and the phone freezed so I booted it (at least tried to).. It went off but wont go on anymore?

I cannot boot it to recovery, download or any else mode.. Seems it bricked totally?

Any advice what to do next? :confused:

Thanks!

I was using the update-cm-9-20120322-NIGHTLY-galaxys2-signed.zip
[Galaxy S II General] brar.arsh:
Connect to odin and see if you are getting device added prompt or not..

If yes then flash the official fw, turn on, followed by bootloader on op and then cm9 and gapps..

Clear cache and d.Cache..

Anyone have an issue with the alarm on the 25th build?

I set it this morning but when it tried to play the sound it hung. The prompt did appear but no sound.
[Galaxy S II General] Fornjotr:
I pushed vol up + home + power button at the same time for a while (nothing happened) and connected phone to USB with Odin on, but still nothing..

Edit: battery has been out of phone whole night (i charged it to full with another SGS2)

[Galaxy S II General] JacquesR:
I have an issue, yes, but a different one (on both 22 and 25th builds): alarm sounds, but screen doesn't wake, so alarm can't be turned off (I've pulled the battery to stop it!). I've just assumed this is a deep-sleep bug.
[Galaxy S II General] hallydamaster:
Can anyone replicate this:

Disable any kind of keyguard!

Put the phone to deep sleep!

Wake it with the home button!

Mine sometimes wakes with lag, and when it does it opens the joblist! :confused:

Thanks
[Galaxy S II General] Fornjotr:
I quote myself: Of course I pushed vol down + home + power (not up like i said) to get it to download mode.

And nothing..

This really creeps me out.. Is it so that only thing it's left that I have throw the whole thing into lake or so?
[Galaxy S II General] FRLinux:
Don't have this issue and I use my phone every morning to wake up.

Clear cache and dalvik, flash latest nightly again. Also my kernel is set to ondemand.
[Galaxy S II General] Tchiort:
Your computer doesn't detect your phone? What happen? Did you install the drivers? If you have access to download mod you should be fine.
[Galaxy S II General] Fornjotr:
This is the thing:

My phone freezed last night when I tried to play music so I tried to boot it.

It wont boot normally, wont boot to recovery mode, wont boot to download mode, is not recognized by Odin (all drivers ok since my computer detected it earlier) - all I have is black screen.

Tried to boot it with another (fully charged) battery and same thing. Nothing.
[Galaxy S II General] Rumble6059:
Have you tried using a usb jig to force it into download mode? You can get one from ebay.

Hope this sorts it!

Posted by Rumble via XDA premium app on my gsII running CM9 Ice cream Sandwich!! YEAH BABY!! WOOOO
[Galaxy S II General] bluefa1con:
+1

getting it since hw codecs were added

mx doesnt work dice doesnt play all the videos
[Galaxy S II General] Tchiort:
I have some hard time thinking that CM9 alone breaked your phone (especially since everything was working fine), it could be a hardware problem.

But yeah you could try a jig.
[Galaxy S II General] Fornjotr:
I guess that'll be my last hope.. Any advice what to type in to find that jig from ebay?

Edit: found it already! Many thanks!! Hope it works..
[Galaxy S II General] bluefa1con:
your phone cant just hard brick

u only hard brick when u mess with boot loader

may be your battery died or a circuit failure on board
[Galaxy S II General] Fornjotr:
I will try that usb jig and hope the best.. It's not battery because I already tried it with another (full charged) battery as well - never touched the bootloader.

In meantime, I will use Nokia E7 what I got from work.. ew. :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II General] codeworkx:
if it's no user error, then a hardware error. ;-)

cm9 doesn't touch bootloaders or something like this.
[Galaxy S II General] blaze2k:
About that screen sensitivity issue which some ppl have including me I was just wondering how come I have it in Trebucket and in adw launcher ex and in apex launcher I DONT have it but its there in play shop.How is that possible?
[Galaxy S II General] Fornjotr:
It really might be a hardware error as well since I was visiting Russia last week and there was _really_ cold at the time and I was using the phone outside.

I will report here what happened after I receive that usb-jig within couple of days! ;)
[Galaxy S II General] digeddydogg:

rice and pea(ce)
[Galaxy S II General] mfenetre:
Please don't be so arrogant and condescending. :mad:

Yes, the CM9 team and Codeworkx in particular have clearly stated that FM radio implementation is not on their roadmap, and I understand that. If it's implemented one day, then I'll be grateful.

However, I think you can understand that the feature is important for some users, me included. I've started looking for other solutions (including with other apps such Spirit FM radio), you can look for my answers in this thread. Of course, I know that I can always use other ROMs if that's really a key feature for me, but that's not my point.

If anyone has other information about possible solutions to use FM radio with CM9 on SGSII (other than whining about not considering it an "issue"), then I'll be glad to know about it.

Anyone got issues with displaying contact on call log/SMS?

My contacts on call log/SMS is showing as numbers, not contact names. However if I manually re-add that number to a contact, it will show as name next time.
[Galaxy S II General] digeddydogg:
Wow. -40! That's insane. In regard to your problem. A jig will probably work. If it doesn't hen its hardware. I don't think he cold would have ruined the phone, especially if it was working after you were there as well.

Ok.. since the mhl crap adapter will not see the light to get fixed.. Is USB Audio will see some light in the near future? Basically our phone will become a digital transmitter of audio signal to portable DAC and digital receiver.. that would be awesome considering that our phone have crappy dac.. My quarter cent.. :D
[Galaxy S II General] Tchiort:
I used my phone at -15 this winter without any problem. The phone doesn't like humidity though, my charging port died because of humidity a few weeks ago but the symptoms are different.
[Galaxy S II General] digeddydogg:
It pretty impressive how cold it can go though. I think iPhones were only tested to -6 or something. Yeah man, loads of electronics hate humidity. I remember going to tel Aviv years ago and it broke my diskman! (Yes, that long ago!)

Oh, that's weird, it works perfectly on MX here (with the latest nightly, and since hw codecs were added).

It may sound stupid, but have you tried to simply clear its data?

Update: Oh, something really strange happened, I was just watching a video (with HW) and it suddenly stopped, after this, I lost the option to select HW. After clearing its data HW is back O_o
[Galaxy S II General] bluefa1con:

remove and reinstalled nothing works

i see the option for hw codecs on some videos select it and it says can not play this video in hw codec

Guys I see that the MTP is working now from the previous comments and changelog. I am using Ubuntu and I do not have windows. Can someone tell me how I can make it work here?

hi all. just want to check something.

is the browser smooth for you all?

i've done a full wipe for build 2503. but seems like browser's smoothness is still not there.

i've tried stock browser, opera mini, maxthon, dolphin mini. all are not smooth, in terms of loading/scrolling/focus in/out.

is this a known bug or something? just want to check with everyone here.

If samsung releases their code this in my opinion means that there are people that are rensponsable for it.

If we have their contacts maybe they can provide guidelines to the team?

Has the call settings menu been implemented anywhere in cm9? Because if it has I can't find it...

Anyway, my default network setting is to hide my number, and every time I setup a new rom I have to set it show my caller id, either by going into the call menu or dialing *31#

But on cm9 I dial *31#, get a message saying outgoing caller id is enabled but it's really not.

Anyone know something else I can try?
[Galaxy S II General] TeraJL:
what does that phone mod does? i changed the dpi to 182 on /data/local.prop and everything works fine, only problem was the market, easily fixed with "lcd density modder pro"(on play store), the phone.apk is working as expected without any mod
[Galaxy S II General] vfdesignz:
Wtf, now it's working... o_O
[Galaxy S II General] Life Engineer:
Aha ok thx for that info!

How did you change it to 182?!
[Galaxy S II General] Goku80:
Launcher to use:

Apex for me free on Market.

Best browser to use:

Google Chrome. Can not get any smoother than that.

If you want to use flash while you are browsing then Stock browser. Just make sure you clear cache and data before you start browsing and that should be a peach.

Music player:

Poweramp for me..works like a charm.

hope this helps someone in wanting to try something different
[Galaxy S II General] TeraJL:
get a root file manager (ES File explorer) , go to /data , create a file (if you don't have it) named "local.prop" and add this lines:

ro.sf.lcd_density=182
qemu.sf.lcd_density=182

if you have problems with the market, try to search for "Play Store fixed for multi DPI" on xda, or easily fix it with "lcd density modder"(play store) with the option "Fix Market Compatibily Issues"
