The only difference between the older version and new is that the older one includes all apps such as GMail and Youtube which was removed in the recent versions as they're available via the Play Store. So whichever you choose just make sure you don't say your missing apps ;)

The ODIN method will wipe your system so that's why it doesn't say to do any wipes and wipes are generally mentioned in CWM versions but both cache and dalvik wipes aren't really that necessary people just do them as a matter of course.

For some reason Odin isn't detecting my phone. Using Odin Multi Downloader 4.28. I have the phone in download mode connected with original USB cable. I'm not sure what the heck is up!
[Galaxy S II General] spoerie:
Ad-Hoc doesn't work. But installing the application Virtual Router (google for it, i am not yet allowed to place links, it's on codeplex) made me able to make it work.

What it does is that it makes a acces point on your computer instead of special ad-hoc network. The phone doesn't understand the ad-hoc network protocol, but it is able to connect after you create access point with the free virtual router app.
[Galaxy S II General] Blagoja:

Me again with mediaserver battery drain. ;-) after a nandroid backup i did a full wipe/factory reset, then i installed just poweramp on the clean rom. Mediaserver drained battery again. So it is not related to ROM, Apps or sth. Must be a corrupt file, but how can i find it ? Deactivation of mediaserver with "rescan media root" did not help...

Are you suffering from terrible battery too? I'm thinking maybe this is stopping the phone from deep sleeping if it thinks it's charging.
[Galaxy S II General] dchn2:
"vbus_present" is indeed a wakelock normally put in place when the phone is plugged in, and it will indeed stop the phone from entering sleep mode.

At all those who have a problem with the phone thinking its charging when its not plugged in, try to push up the micro-usb-connector with something very thin like a knife or so. Sometimes there is dirt between the micro-usb-connector and then theres a connection between some pinsand it makes the phone think its in charging-mode..but it could also be a softwareproblem if so many are facing the same problem

[Galaxy S II General] Andyred:

I had this a while back and found that the usb socket had collected fluff and small particles of paper. I took the battery out and used a pin to remove the fluff/paper and an old toothbrush and acetone on a cotton bud to clean the socket and connector. Then I carefully levered the connector up. This solved the problem and has been fine for a month or so - no issues.

In solid explorer, menu at the bottom, press 'jump' > 'device' and you'll see an option for SD card.

In Samsung roms the sdcard was shown at /mnt/sdcard/externalsd/ in AOSP roms the sdcard is /mnt/emmc/.

It sounds like you are getting confused by the left over external SD card folder, which now is just an empty folder.

I only just checked back the thread now, but I see you've gotten past your previous question you asked me. Hope its going well now. Did you update to the latest nightly after flashing resurrection edition?

I use charger and micro usb cable. but i have to check if is not on the usb of the phone.

I think is sw issue. i found a solution to heal the problem: removed battery and charging icon no longer present. I also could connect to my pc and know im flashing latest build.

One remark: after copying the file to the phone and removing usb cable, again charging icon :)

Well after reading a lot...and a whole lot more of try and error...finally my phone is working...almost great.

The "Use 2G option" to save battery is on, and I can't turn it off...so I'am Stuck on 2G..Someone knows how to fix this?

Thanks in Advance!
[Galaxy S II General] Braidonh:
True. However, the average (unfortunately noobish) user looks at it and goes "ohh yai sik battery" , flashes, and after they cry about YouTube, and after they post about it in t development thread, they're going to come here and complain "Y my fone no get 2days battery?? Urgent!!".

The moral of the story is truly, yes no screen on is more useful. Its just a more user friendly representation of battery life if the screen is on sometimes. Sorry for any misunderstandings or coming off rude. Wasn't my intention in the least.

On mine it seems to be correct, might be a few kb's wrong because I don't have a full history on ICS since I only flashed it on the 12th while my data resets the 1st, but the difference is reasonable for my normal usage.

Volume change

Hi all,

I use an application call Easy Profiles to change my profiles, and it has a function call "show differences", that shows the profiles value and the actual system value. When I activate my work profile (for example), the application sets the ring volume to 1. After a period of inactivity, I check the values and the ring volume is set back to 5.

Until yesterday I was using the 20120602 nightly, and I solved the issue freezing the DSPManager app (at least I tought so...). This morning I decided to change to the new nightly (20120618) and it seems that the problem is back, even if my DSPManager is still freeze.

Does anyone has some idea of what is happening here?

Thanks for your answers
[Galaxy S II General] AvRS:
All widgets do this while the SD cards are being initialised on boot up and that can't be helped as they need to be found first ;) It's just become second nature now that when I reboot I don't unlock till the SD card notifications have been and gone and do it without noticing most times until I have a moment and unlock the phone to see them appear after x seconds. It's normal.

Wakelocks when changing DPI and play store

Ok so here's an issue someone talked about before and no one took it seriously!!!

On default DPI everything runs great! I tested it for a whole day!

When changing DPI and flashing the needed play store and GSF (google services framework) to be able to resolve compatibility issues my battery degrades fast and I see 2 types of wakelocks and battery drain:

GTALK_ASYNC_CONN_com.google.android.gsf.gtalkservice.AndroidEndpoint

and

GTALK_ASYNC_CONN_xxx.yyy@gmail.com/android_talk1f580197452a

This is when flashing both Play store and GSF!

If you replace only the play store and keep the original GSF i get on wakelocks only the 1st wakelock cited above!!!

This is always under same cm9 kernel, same rom, same conditions and everything!!!

I cannot withstand the defualt DPI it's huuuuggggeeee!!!

Any help pls?! Recommendations?!
[Galaxy S II General] dandjo:

[Galaxy S II General] AvRS:
Feature requests are ignored for nightlies and you'd (someone would) have to code it and submit it to gerrit to be reviewed and only then would it possibly make it in to CM9. That isn't meant to be rude it's just how it works.

[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
You won't get a lot of support for other kernels here mate, you need to ask in the kernel's discussion thread.

I'll answer it this time, latest Siyah has been compiled as close to CM9 stock as possible (Gokhan's words)... as to avoid stability issues. So, v3.3.2 shouldn't give any problems whatsoever. I haven't experienced any issues myself.
[Galaxy S II General] anthonypiccolo:
Yep.

For sure, I won't get any support for Thoravukk, I'm just sharing my problem because some people earlier were talking about a "bricked phone", I think they were just facing the "freezing recovery" problem.
