Hi guys!

I need you to help me :(

somedays ago I've flashed a custom bootanimation that somone posted, and now I'm not able to remove or change it. I have tried to replace the bootanimation.zip file in /system/media.

Can I attach some logs or something like that so you can help me?
[Galaxy S II General] MPKO:
Been running now few days with cm9 and up to now I'm happy than a small child with a lollipop. :)

It works quite nicely in my daily usage. For example gps is working fluently without any problems.

I have found few things on top of these "known" issues. For example I can't save any contacts to my sim. Is this feature or a bug I don't know.

One other thing is that I'm used to use sms delivery notification. I have notice that many times sms what I have sent is in "pending" state. I believe this is not a "network" issue because I haven't seen it on my area when I was using gb.

Thanks for this nice ics experience !

Cheers

[Galaxy S II General] gabx:
I posted a few days ago the cm9 new official bootanimation. In my post, I recommanded to place the file in /data/local, so it will take hand on the one in /system/media.

Maybe should you have a look in the cited folder.
[Galaxy S II General] riccardocayla:
it works! thanks

Random Turn Off

I downloaded and installed the Feb 25 release and just moments ago had my second random turn off. The first time, it was in the morning on my commute to work right after installing it. I was reading my twitter on the bus, locked device screen (short press of power button) then walked to the office and when sitting at my desk noticed device screen was black no matter what. Only long-pressing the power actually booted the phone.

Moments ago a friend called my home line (which is almost never used) to ask if I was alright, cause my mobile was off... Surely, upon checking, the screen was black and device was off. Long-pressing power boots alright. Both times battery is well above 50%, so not a problem of juice (or lack thereof)...

Anyone else observed this random power off?
[Galaxy S II General] peterperfect:
Just wrong quoted you. Was for the guy the first posted that picture. :D

---------- Post added at 04:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:09 PM ----------

Sadly no. Its just because since last build uses LP6 kernel theres no more the big apps install bug. Thats what was removed from the known issues.

But as it also doesnt mean that we will not see a new build today. Who knows?! ;)
[Galaxy S II General] Mark ter Grote:
Reflash and clear dalvik
[Galaxy S II General] rutgerhoorn:
Logcat or it didn't happen.:o

And people who say this are actually right, but strangely enough this **** occurs when you're not able to do a logcat immediately.....

So.....

I'd like to know know the exact same thing as posted above... I thought it was because of my (original samsung) extended battery thing. But that would be odd, right?

There also were (imho) no strange signs from betterbatterystatts or cpuspy, the phone just quit working sometimes. It happend 4 or 5 times since the build of the 17th (when i also got my mega-extendend-super-originalsamsung-battery-replacement-device)

If somebody knows, made a logcat or something, please let us know..

btw, i used Resurrection Remix ics v9.4 black edition XXLPH 4.0.3 FULL-Wipe etecetera etcetera for the past two days, but it didn't like it as much as i like this rom.

I think i'm hooked om cyanogenmod. I'll might change my sig for it.:o

Not the solution for everything. Tried it.
[Galaxy S II General] kwerdenker:
After a day of extended tests and a lot of head scratching, I think I know what the problem is and I feel really dumb right now. I flashed a lot between different ROMs the last few weeks and didn't always bother to keep my tracking of data usage consistent between them. Considering it's the end of the month, I probably have just hit my download quota and my carrier capped my connection speeds to GPRS/EDGE. So hopefully my "problem" should be gone in two days :)

Thanks to everyone who tried to help me.
[Galaxy S II General] Nexu$:
Trying to clear Dalvik, i get error saying

E: no /sd-ext

or something like that... not sure if proper clear Dalvik has been performed but i did re-flash, ao fingers crossed.

No idea how to do a logcat on device which self powers-off. Ideas welcome :D

You don't have /sd-ext so it cannot be wiped.

[Galaxy S II General] freemini:
Leaving the SGS2 community makes me feel a little sad seeing the fantastic progress going on here. The Nexus should make up for my sadness though. I ain't going nowhere for some days anyway, will try the new build tomorrow.

(except when I saw that samfirmware tweet for a new 2.3.5 ROM, that is just tragic)

[Galaxy S II General] XpLoDWilD:
Can you link video so I can test here?
[Galaxy S II General] ludalex07:
Then how could I troubleshoot the issue?
[Galaxy S II General] zeromiles:
You need to be rooted with S2 root. Flash insecure kernel first before running S2 oot. Then flash CWM 4.1
[Galaxy S II General] eseregin:
Have you tried cpu spy to see if phone sleep or not?
[Galaxy S II General] :
Wifi on it's own won't drain battery that quickly. It's opening the door potentially for other apps/processes to do so, but only if you let them. Could come down to a single sync setting, location service, etc...

What are your partial wakelocks? What are your kernel wakelocks? Without knowing that you're wasting your time. It's a good idea to have BBS for a stable, final ROM, it's a

requirement

for a test build such as this unless you want to pull your wakelocks via adb or terminal all the time.

I have Wifi on 100% of the time and the most drain I've had per hour (at

idle

) was 0.5%. At idle, so what right? But it's the idle processes that are killing most people's battery life no matter what the ROM.
[Galaxy S II General] ludalex07:
Of course. It's the way I notice issues with deepsleep.

Oh well, another method to notice it is the immediate opening of the lockscreen at home/power button press!
[Galaxy S II General] Tyrany:
mudferret youre right but by default wifi keeps on even if th screen goes off so probably the drain is caused by not entering deepsleep
[Galaxy S II General] :
As I said, my Wifi is on all the time, wifi sleep policy is set to never. Regardless 97% deep sleep when I'm not using the phone.
[Galaxy S II General] ludalex07:
Partial wakelocks are showed in earlier screenshot.

How to see kernel wakelocks?
[Galaxy S II General] MistahBungle:
Just use 2.1 or even 2.2 :rolleyes: And in the unlikely event that doesn't give you what you want, go to the Siyah thread and ask Gok if he'll put an earlier version up somewhere/give you a link.
[Galaxy S II General] eseregin:
Dont know...

To be honest the most battery drainer for me - Os Android. System, kernel - far from optimal... for now.

So - for me phone sleep well even with WiFi on, Touchdown with Push sync
[Galaxy S II General] raptorjesus1337:
What is everyone's screen drain?

Mine is currently 48%.
[Galaxy S II General] jroyalty7:
Since I wasn't around for the last lockout does that mean no more build updates also?
[Galaxy S II General] fyre31:
i'm having the same. when i view battery stats via settings app Phone shows up as taking 60+% so i'm guessing theyre connected (aside from the obvious name ofc :p)
[Galaxy S II General] eseregin:
Who knows...

It was not understandable to me as well...

May be we will see only final build... and no more Alfa builds

Sad
[Galaxy S II General] s2d4:
can i get a bugatti build?
[Galaxy S II General] braso:
AOS might show up in the battery usage stats, but seriously is there really a 'drain'? I have it showing up as the highest consumer of battery, but considering I am easily getting over 24 hours between charges I'm not concerned about it at all. Once you control the media scan and the other couple of wake locks it is very very good with battery life in my opinion.
[Galaxy S II General] eseregin:
Special for you, you can get Bugatti build alone with Lamborghini build, but next life :-)
[Galaxy S II General] wesleyrpg:
guys,

there's one thing that we can all agree on and that's the spoilt little brat will be back with his bat and ball soon enough.....

give him a day or two, he misses his ego being stroked (and other things), to keep the thread closed.....

Little known fact number 1 about Codeworkx is that he used to be quite the fan of Unreal Tournament...

HQ Disabled: No blue bar, video not quite full screen, color convergence still slightly off.

Please don't mistake this for complaining - I am very pleased with the CM9 progress and love you guys. When codeworkx posted it was FIXED, I thought I was doing something wrong. (I'm very skilled at doing things wrong). :D

No Blue Icons?

After flashing the newest build 02/28, my wifi and signal bar icons are not blue but stays in gray. Only my clock and battery are blue. Any one else having this issue?
[Galaxy S II General] michaeldcoates:
Hi all, been flashing these updates almost religiously and glad to see progress is continuing at a pace. I have a couple of queries if anyone would be kind enough to indulge me.

I'm keen to use a couple of apps that are apparently not available on my device, namely Natwest banking, BBC iplayer and the new sky go app. Is it possible to edit anything to fool market into believing I am using a different room to what I am using? For instance, these apps apparently don't work on ics, can I fool then into thinking I am running stock ginger bread? Sky go won't install on rooted devices for some odd reason either.

One other small question is about not needed to install gapps now, it's this because it's bundled with the ROM? Is that allowed now?

Thank you

Titanium Backup

Hi,

There is a following info on the very first page of CM9 development topic: "Don't restore Apps using Titanium Backup!". I have searched through this thread and I can see that people are actually using TB. The question is: can I restore apps with TB or not? If no, why? If yes, why as well? :-P

As long as you don't restore system apps and system settings (or Google Apps for that matter) then you should be okay to use it.

Just realised, when I try to play a file from rootexplorer or one I have just downloaded from the notification bar, the phone claims I don't have an application capable of playing the file. This is with a .mkv which contains a .mp4 and with a .m4v taken by the camera on cm7. Any ideas?
[Galaxy S II General] eseregin:
Try Mxvideo player.

Settings- Software decoding.

You will see your videos
[Galaxy S II General] SimboXXX:
Yes. I always batch restore all my apps without problem. Doesn't mean you won't have problem. Best restore few at a time and use for a while to see if anything got screwed up.
[Galaxy S II General] -pól-:
Yeah, but I thought this update was going to mean no more messing with 3rd party apps, no?

Do you think it will be fixable when we have the kernel sources please?
[Galaxy S II General] :
It will likely be better, but get used to the "AOSP banding". IIRC the HTC HD2 has the worst banding I've ever seen, makes the SGSII's banding look awesome.

Edit: zOMG Youtube fix is great!

Lol, they really did a great job here! :banghead:

Well, on my modest opinion, you guys should just replace the backgroung .png with a plain black one.

Probably just some crud in the usb connector, try blasting it out with an air duster or, if you have some, a very small amount of electrical contact cleaner, preferably applied using a paintbrush or similar. Resist the urge to spray it up there, the port won't be watertight.
