I always keep forgetting about "reporting" this bug, but now it just happened.

If I'm using a headphone and I'm listening to music and I get a SMS Notification (Not sure about other kinds of notifications), my volume goes down and doesn't come back up, I have to adjust it again and then it'll resume from where it was.

Anyone else noticed this?
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
CM9 has a UI, the stock ICS UI, if you want Sony Timescape you should have purchased a Sony phone, or perhaps port it yourself.

this code (*#*#0011#*#* ) works for me but i cant find the way to choose some bands. eg. i would like that my phone only search between GSM 850 1900 and UMTS 850 1900 bands. because my provider doesnt work with 900 1800 2100...
[Galaxy S II General] Juzman:
Not sure if anyone else has noticed this, I was just playing around with SMS vibration patterns.

I set it to Multiple Long. When I get an SMS it vibrates long, then 3 real quick "jitters". Same with Multiple Short (one short vibrate, then a couple jitters).

I ended up setting it back to "Normal" since the others don't work correctly.

The issue that I'm having with the home button is that it is not responding as it should. When I quick press it sometimes doesn't work and have to hold it for 5 secs to open recent apps.

And the issue with the recent apps when screen is off and press home once is still there :(

Thank yo
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
What an incredibly useful post, to actually get help you might want to define what you consider bad, what apps you're currently using, screen on time, etc... Otherwise nobody can help you troubleshoot your battery problems. Plenty of people including myself get better battery life from CM9 than they do from Samsung ICS or Gingerbread based ROMs, so without more information there is nothing we can do, but thanks for crapping up the thread.

Hello guys

I'm running 20120411 cm9 and I've noticed a problem

I use setcpu and I set the governor to conservative when screen is off but when the screen wakes up the time doesn't get updated(not the one from lockscreen nor the one from status bar) I have to enter an app and rotate the device so I can put it in landscape so the time get's redrawn

When I was on gingerbread the time used to update immediately after I turned the screen on

It's not really a big deal but it is displaying the wrong time and that is really annoying
[Galaxy S II General] iamnotcobain:
Oh sorry but I'm not a noob... This was just a statement..
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:

I tried:

disabling touch sounds

disabling unlock sound

freezing DSPManager and TVOut with TitaniumBackup

the wakelock is still there, IIRC there was no other solution to the Problem.

AFAIK, my update-history was FullWipe->0402->0404->0409->0411 (wiped caches on each individual upgrade), im not sure about 0402, but I've had the AudioOut_1-lock since 0404.

Im using the LBP-modem right now, I like the fact that it drops back to UMTS when theres no traffic.

Has anyone got yet another idea?

It probably wasn't obious, sorry.

"PC --> dac" works ok

"phone --> OTG cable --> dac" KO

I'm interrested in testing other configurations such as:

- "phone --> OTG cable --> any mouse or keyboard or whatever" (just to check if the cable works correctly as intended

- "PC --> any usb hub (such as your keyboard) --> dac" to check if your DAC accepts to sit behind a usb hub. not all usb devices do that. the USB hub will take the role that your otg cable has for your phone: an intermdiary.

Frankly I'm not too hopefull. I didn't dig enough in the code to see if support was there. If not, then we could kindly ask teamhacksung if some modifications in this thread can be implemented in our kernel.

is there anyway to flash latest nightly without resurrection or bootloader first?

Is there any way to turn off the haptic feedback for screen unlock? I can't find in the settings.
[Galaxy S II General] Gustopher:
To be slightly pedantic, it is not THE solution to the issue, it is A solution. I still find this wakelock right at the top of the Partial Wakelock list in BBS despite disabling all the indicated settings and I suspect others may find the same.

If I understand correctly, there is an inevitability to this as any and all audio output triggers this wakelock.

FM Radio works on CM9 with Spirit FM experimental build

Guys,

Great news!!!

The developer of the Spirit FM app made a new experimental version of his app. And FM Radio works on this experimental build with CM9 ! (I'm on 04/11 nightly).

I'm just amazed it works since he mentioned that it was not likely to work on pure AOSP roms, but I can assure you it works!

You can find details here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=24795459&postcount=2894

There is still one small glitch with speaker/headphones mode, I'm waiting for the dev to come back to us.

That's just so cool, I'll be sure to buy the full version of the app to thank the dev (after a donation to the CM9 team for their amazing work of course!)

Man, this just made my day.

On the battery drain topic, I have started the spring cleaning of removing hoggy apps but I am still puzzled as of why switching wifi off just fixes it, since I thought wifi consumed less than 3g/hdspa?

Notice how battery consumption flatlines on the first screenshot when i disable wifi.

Screenshots included.
[Galaxy S II General] furyau:
I have tweaked out my phone many different ways.

2x Push Accounts

1x Imap on 1hr intervals

Calendar sync

Everything else OFF and optimised for battery.

Still get 50mAh+ while in deep sleep. Not 3mAh - 5mAh like CM7.

I am going to keep trying, any tips appreciated!

Can't decide if WIFI is better OFF always or ON. Spent a whole day out today, no WIFI and still got similar drain, however the reception was the greatest.

[Galaxy S II General] WearTheFoxHat:
Hi Mike,

To answer some of your questions.

I understand that music metadata via bluetooth isn't currently implemented for CM9. Something I'd like to see (but isn't priority).

Have you tried other music players?

Do you have multiple music players installed? Some of them like to take priority with bluetooth headsets, such as DoubleTwist. Might be best to check their settings to ensure that they are not all trying to take control.

Cheers

i not really like the new sound I prefer the old touch sound
[Galaxy S II General] MariusWildfire:
wtf what happened with the alarm sounds :( the old sounds were much better!
[Galaxy S II General] digeddydogg:
Get file manager that has root access to root files. Find the touch tones you want. And replace them in the system-media -audio-ui.

You may need to make a note of the original file names of the sounds in that file and rename the new tones to the exact name. Copy to that folder and replace. Won't take effect until reboot.

Edit: tones may have to be in .ogg format. Not 100% on that but I'm pretty sure.

I have tried other music players (PowerAmp, PlayerPro & double-twist) - they all have the same bug. I currently have only the stock player installed as I had the same thought about multiple apps trying to grab control of the stream. I've also done a wipe and clean install of the nightly build to ensure that absolutely nothing else is interacting...

I've update my original post with some logcat files that show the errors.

http:// xdaforums.com /showthread.php?p=24790310#post24790310

Interestingly the logs *do* show metadata... I guess this is coming from the bluez library.

The car stereo actually displays text boxes for the track data fields - but they remain blank. (as opposed to CM7 where the text boxes didn't even appear)...

Any thoughts from the logs?

Virgin UK settings & carrier not found

Hi

Just been looking at the SC to try and find out why my network "Virgin UK" does not show as an available network when I found that : system/vendor/cm/prebuilt/common/etc/apns-conf.xml has incorrect APN settings and also a rogue entry that should not be there

it has mnc for "30 ,31 & 32" should only be "31 & 32" on mcc"234"

as currently you have two carriers on mcc"234" MNC"30" (T-Mobile UK & Virgin UK)

and the apn configs are wrong (looking at pp.vodaphone?)

Here is the correction (in bold):

<apn carrier="Picture Message" mcc="234" mnc="30" apn="general.t-mobile.uk" user="user" password="wap" mmsc="http://mmsc.t-mobile.co.uk:8002" mmsproxy="149.254.201.135" mmsport="8080" type="mms" />
[B]<apn carrier="Virgin UK" mcc="234" mnc="31" apn="goto.virginmobile.uk" user="user" type="default,supl" />
<apn carrier="Virgin UK MMS" mcc="234" mnc="31" apn="goto.virginmobile.uk" user="" password="" mmsc="http://mms.virginmobile.co.uk:8002" mmsproxy="193.30.166.2" mmsport="8080" type="mms" />
<apn carrier="Virgin UK" mcc="234" mnc="32" apn="goto.virginmobile.uk" user="user" type="default,supl" />
<apn carrier="Virgin UK MMS" mcc="234" mnc="32" apn="goto.virginmobile.uk" user="" password="" mmsc="http://mms.virginmobile.co.uk:8002" mmsproxy="193.30.166.2" mmsport="8080" type="mms" />[/B]
<apn carrier="Orange UK" mcc="234" mnc="33" apn="orangeinternet" type="default,supl" />

Would this explain why my carrier is not listed in network selection?

or am I going to have to keep digging deeper?

To all cm9 users with 160 DPI, you can simply replace the existing phone.apk with the one attached here(extracted from fordT latest mdpi build), no need for a full reflash. A big thanks to FordT, thanks a lot man. also now the incoming calls swipe shows at the exact location.

Same here.

I've seen the BCM4330 misbehave sometimes (very often in UCKK6 and XWKK5, sometimes in XXKI3), but not recently.

And anyone having these drain problems should be performing proper troubleshooting technique instead of just *****ing. Hunting down wifi drain problems is VERY well documented, I've got an entire goddamn thread on it.

Worthless post is worthless.

I don't think any change was made to BT in the last weeks AFAIK.

I can try again with latest nightly beginning of next week.

Did you tried Google Music App ? It is the only one I use (therefore didn't try PowerAmp/PlayerPro/Stock)

Maybe it is linked to your car radio, especially if even stock Samsung ROM behave almost identically. Does Kenwood allows / provide firmware update for their car radio ? (might be worth searching / trying)

[Galaxy S II General] Entropy512:
Yup, that's it. It seems like some of the packet filters might not be getting shut off properly, so you might get increased drain when on a "dirty" wifi network.

Not sure yet, I only did a short arping test (one of my "drain stress tests") - I lost 4% in an hour while the test was running. Not nearly as bad as running this test against XXKI3 through XWKK5, but still not quite optimal.

So much to look at, so little time.
[Galaxy S II General] jcasares:
I would like to check with others...

Whenever I launched Google Maps with GPS disabled I was able to get a position, with a great margin of error, by cell phone services. Now it doesn't work at all. It keeps saying that it's "Waiting for location" and after a while it says that "Your current location is currently unavailable". I don't know if it's my provider, if it's CM9, Google Maps 6.5.0 or something else. Do anybody has this issue? Or knows how to diagnose it?

And I also have long times for a lock of GPS but is also not stable. It wasn't either with previous GB/Samsung ICS roms but this time is worse. Longer times for a fix so whenever I lose the fix it takes a while to get it again. Hope they find the issue.

I really don't know how you can achieve that. The most I got with the stock battery was 20 really light usage hours with not more than 1 hr screen time. :(
[Galaxy S II General] punshkin:

Bluetooth not properly working with car radio on 120411 nightly

Hi there,

i updated yesterday from 120403 nightly to 120411 nightly and now bluetooth calling/music isn't working for me, too.

Phone pairs, i even can select the calling lists (recently dialed, phonebook etc.) but after selecting the number i want to call the car radio waits for response from my sgs2 but on the phone nothing happens.

no problems with bluetooth on the 120403 nightly - i'm switching back for the moment.
