Feedback on a Feature Patch

Following the general push not to add any more unessential settings in CM9 - I was reluctant to post this patch.

http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#change,14723

http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#change,14722

The change gives the user the option to silence the Volume Change sound that is made when adjusting the volume with the Hard Keys.

I personally don't want the sound that is made when adjusting the volume.

Others have expressed that they like it, infact its pretty evenly split when I ask smartphone users.

When something is either you hate it or like it - then I think that the argument that is should be a setting is strengthened.

However - the reason I post here is to ask - How would you have it - Sound on / Off?

AND

Should it be a Setting?
[Galaxy S II General] Mutalisk:
Good idea :)

I personally would prefer it without the sound, you're right.

But on the other hand I see the risk of very complex settings (I'd like that), which doesn't quite fit into the approach of reducing complexity of CyanogenMod.

So I'd say yes, but one has to be careful not to overload cm9.

Hope it's possible to get my point I

:D
[Galaxy S II General] marcosxd:
I personally like the sound and I think a setting would be even better, that way you give a user the option :) Thanks for your work.
[Galaxy S II General] punshkin:
is it only me or is the enhanced volume overlay gone that was included in the 04 11 nightly? i found it very, VERY handy

their status however still shows merged..

http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#change,14458
[Galaxy S II General] confusedmuse:
I still have it...
[Galaxy S II General] test9876543:
My personal opinion on this is to leave it on and to not add a setting option, but to enable turning it off via system prop for those who really want this. The sound might be annoying to some, but it's there for a reason: letting you know how loud the volume actually is on each setting.

Btw: thanks for your work on the sound issues and I hope the annoying low volume issue with notifications while listening to music gets fixed soon.
[Galaxy S II General] punshkin:
that is confusing. its not that is only deactivated, the setting is completely gone from the volume settings menu :O
[Galaxy S II General] StevenHarperUK:
Which build are you running?
[Galaxy S II General] punshkin:
ok i found the source of evil.

i downloaded the latest nightly directly on my phone.

then with es file browser i moved it from download folder to /external_sd and deleted the old nightly from there

when in recovery selected "zip from external sd"

i didnt read the name of the nightly. for some reason the recovery sees the very old nightly from 03.04 in there and flashed that one...even though i deleted it and es file browser tells me that the latest nightly is in that directory......

how is that even possible? t shows a file that has been deleted several days ago and it seems to be actually be there. i was running that build.... nandroid backup ftw
[Galaxy S II General] StevenHarperUK:
Does anyone know if the low volume on notification bug is present on any other devices.

Or is it just i9100 only.
[Galaxy S II General] ibm9001:
An option seems like a bad idea. Accidental pressing is less likely to be noticed. It happens all the time for me. A better option IMO would be the option of disconnecting the volume button from the ringer volume so it is used exclusively for media volume. I switch between ring, vibrate and silent using the buttons in the notification menu and never use medium volumes. It works well for me and I'm sure a lot of people do it that way. The only time I change the ringer volume with the HW buttons is by accident or when I mean to change the media volume.
[Galaxy S II General] digitallysick:
The download says its 97Mb, but the page says its 118Mb anyone have a mirror?
[Galaxy S II General] test9876543:
Just tested it on cm9 on hp touchpad and the volume goes back to the previous level as it should.

I still have two weird issues with the camera, which were present from the start:

1. If I use the wide format, the image on the screen is stretched / deformed, but the captured image is normal.

2. When I exit the camera app, the flash turns on for a second, and then off.

Does this happen to you also? Was it already discussed?
[Galaxy S II General] hedgepigdaniel:
UMS Issues

I flashed the 20110414 nightly and initially found I could not use UMS because the notification did not appear, even though I had wiped the dalvik cache. I fixed it by disabling ADB (Settings -> Development -> Android debugging) and then enabling UMS (Settings -> Storage -> Menu Key -> USB mass storage) and connecting to my computer. After that I was able to use it with or without ADB.
[Galaxy S II General] SRQ642:
1. Has no "stretched screen", but a zoom in 1080p, btw it's well known and normal on this phone with every rom, even with sammy's.

2. Flash turns on for a sec while exiting is present, so +1!!
[Galaxy S II General] danfalcas:

Firstly thanks for releasing cifs support. I've always loved using mount manager and folder sync together to backup my data to my file server.

Sadly though I've loaded /system/lib/modules/cifs.ko into mount manager and it doesn't seem to load the module properly. Is this the right path to you added module? Is there any kind f troubleshooting or more info/logs I can get for you?

Cheers in advance.

Message-app does not autorotate

I noticed that when snapping a pic with camera-app and then directly sending it in an MMS, the message-app does not auto-rotate the pic if taken in portrait...

Even worse is when (accidently) shooting with the phone up-side-down, the picture is of course, being added that way... :P

All other pic-sending functions work like a charm, i.e. transmitting to Facebook, then the app seems to recognize the accelerometer(?)...

Thanks!

Updated Battery Mods.

CHANGELOG:

15th Jan - VRT-v1.0:

- Updated all mods to use VRTheme, they are compatible with all future CM9 builds now.

- Resized a few of them as per your requests.

- New screenshots showing new sizes.

- Reset version convention for VRT format "VRT-v1.0" etc.

- I'm now also clearing DALVIK during install just to eliminate any possible errors with other mods you may have done.

- Add "Restoration to Stock" for each build.

We are currently working on video codecs. It's long and quite time consuming, however we hope to sort it out asap.

If you just can't wait and want YouTube working, try to remove libsomxcore.so from your system/lib directory. It -should- fall back on software decoding as done before, making YouTube partially working.

I personally understand the use of having an indicator of how loud the sound currently is, but every time I wanted to lower down the volume, I felt uneasy when doing bip bip bip and having people around (especially at work).

I definitely think an option is worth it from a user point of view.

There is an option for touch sounds, so why making a fuss for one USEFUL option ?

(I may be able make the modification myself and add it to an update.zip, if I knew it)

I think kernel is not fully ready yet, when I tested underclocking last month, I almost feared I broke my device ...

On the battery drain and wifi matter.

I turned off all data conection while sleeping, as I always do. the phone went to bed at 95%. I woke up and it was at 92%. It's ok. Could be even better, actually, but it's quite all right.

AOS is just behind the radio in the drain percentages. All looks good.

I turn wifi on. Couple of hours later, without having touched the phone, battery is at 82%, AOS jumped to 68% of the total drain as of right know, being the radio next with 12%, and BBS shows "wlan_wake" and "wlan_rx_wake" with 24 and 22 minutes of wakelocks respectively.

You can't tell me there's nothing wrong with the wifi, specially taking into account that somewhere around the april's 4th build I had no problems leaving wifi on for hours, as i've always done, since it should drain less than data.

Yes, I take into account all apps and possible wakelocks. I did work a lot on the battery drain in GB times, and managed to choose a set of apps that don't cause wakelocks.

This has to be a wifi problem. Could be my network, but it really never caused any problems, so I have to be incluned to see the phone as the cause.
