CM9 is based on AOSP which is pure Google Android with optimizations and changes by the Cyanogen team, the Samsung stock ROM is a completely different firmware with Samsung Touchwiz and other UI changes, while the stock ROM has ICS at it's core it's not really close to Google Android anymore. The changes listed on the CM change log are CM changes only and have nothing to do with features in the Samsung stock ROM and will likely never appear in any version of the Samsung ROM.
[Galaxy S II General] karendar:
Hunh. That's odd indeed. I'd suggest flashing resurrection with Odin then as stated... It'll really start you off with a fresh base, then you can access recovery either by ROM Manager or by using the power menu to reboot to recovery. You can then flash the latest nightly and you'd be good to go!

About HSPA+ I've tried with another S2 (my brother's phone with 2.3.4 Sammy) with same operator (Vodafone ITA) to exchange SIM card, result: my brother's phone reach HSPA+ with his and my SIM in the same place, instead my phone (with CM9) dosn't reach HSPA+ with my or his SIM card.

Are you sure HSPA+ works? Maybe I need to set somethings?
[Galaxy S II General] shotta35:
HSPA+ works just fine - you are looking for the H+ in the notification area and it wont show one. I get 5.8Mbps download on AT&T (yes not really HSPA+ speeds :p). If you want to check, go to About Phone - Status and when it does HSDPA:11 that's HSPA+. HSDPA:9 is basically just normal 7.2Mbps speeds. UMTS:3 is 384Kbps.
[Galaxy S II General] miketwn:
yup...i check when data is on i get HSPDA:11 quite often when Im about town..;)

[Galaxy S II General] Hammerhand.17:
Well, in last nightly I get a lot of battery use for Android OS; never before was so high; I've read in the post that some more people is suffering that, but don't know if they solved it. Was it? It's something general?
[Galaxy S II General] ekjl:
Has this been reported?

Under: Settings>Security>Lock screen>"Power button instantly locks"

Even with it left 'unchecked', the power button still instantly locks the phone.

To users of Power Amp who want to get rid of the volume bug:

(volume doesn't return to the previous level after receiving a notification)

I've found out a workaround for this:

In Power Amp settings, check this option: Settings -> Audio Engine -> Audio Focus -> Short Audio Focus Change.

It will pause the music while the notification sound is playing, but the previous volume is properly restored when it resumes. :)
[Galaxy S II General] ikanikolai:
Thank you, mate!
[Galaxy S II General] Duuuude:
Good point! If he is using PowerAmp, there is a setting to 'Resume on BT a2DP Connection'. That must be it.

Sorry for the OT...:o

SMS messages shown on PC

Forgive my ignorance if I've missed this feature in the past... but is it normal for SMS messages received on my phone to be displayed on my PC screen when I have the phone connected to the PC via the USB cable?

I have no Samsung software installed, in fact it's a vanilla install of Windows 8 without much software at all on it. I've never seen SMS messages pop up at the bottom right hand corner of my screen before, but it's quite cool :)

Edit: Never mind, I've figured out what's doing it. Seem's Droid Explorer offers that feature. Still cool though. See attached...

[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
As was pointed out in the post above, if you look in the phone status and it shows HSDPA:11 that's H+, HSDPA:9 is H, the indicator in the status bar will only ever show H on CM roms.

Manual select Network operator

I have found out that in Network Operators menu, I can only select operator automatically. My Operator does not appear listed when I use "search manually" option to force it. I have to do this because I am live close to the frotier between spain and france and my Data connection sometimes dissappear and cant get it back unless I completely reset the terminal. With samsung based roms I can force my operator without problems and the issue dissapear. I've found out that AOKP roms have the same issue too.

I just wanted to know if this is an official issue taken into account (didnt find about it but a couple of comments on the thread which ended unresolved)

Hi guys! Modem LPJ works fantastic for me (Sweden/3), but with LPR and LPS quite often the wifi vanishes from the status bar, even though wifi is enabled (it's also often gone when unlocking the phone). Nothing happens if I try to turn off/on wifi in the notification bar, the wifi symbol keeps being lit if I tap on it. The solution is to go into airplane mode and back again, or rebooting the phone.

Does anyone else have this problem?

@D79_ I had te same problem, you should go to the store and let them check the antenna. I bought mine and after 5 days of not getting stable connections I went back to the store and they openend the phone and found out the antenna was broken. If you have a good store that offers service they should be able to open the phone and change the antenna without having to send out for repairs. You should also try and flash a stock rom from sammy to check if it works I had to do that after it got fixed.

You need to copy the apk to /system/app and set permissions to 644 then reboot. If the app crashes, clean data.

I don't know how to set up the permissions though, this is what the creator said.

[Galaxy S II General] CruX.:
I know this is not quite CM9 specific but I've got to ask this:

I've used the XXLPB-modem for some time because someone mentioned that it acutally switches from HSPA to UMTS once there's no traffic flowing (the only reason that comes to mind to explain this behaviour would be to reduce power consumption). XXLPB really does this "automatic-fallback".

However, I've noticed (this may be placebo) that XXLPB drains more battery than lets say XXLPS (which is what I'm using now). Im not sure if this is only because it does the fallback or if the modem is just worse than XXLPS (for my region/carrier etc).

My point is: Does anyone have any real data about the powersavings gained by switching off HSDPA? If it actually helps to reduce power consumption, I'd try to write an app which limits the connection to 3g as soon as the screen goes off. (Who needs HSPA if the screen is off anyways?!) using the cm Device-Specific-Settings (which is why I'm posting in this thread).

I personally think (this might also be placebo), 3g drains less power than HSPA, what do you think guys?

I'd really like to be enlightened in this matter, maybe Entropy or someone else with huge knowledge of the hardware and networks used here can answer this...

Greetings

PS: Sorry if this topic has been discussed before, if you know something like this I'd be happy to read an existing discussion.

First try on CM9 for me after many other AOKP/AOSP Roms, and wanted to try with the standard Kernel, just to see how it preforms.

But the screen sensitivity is totally erratic when touching and holding screen, keeps moving around and won't stay still, no matter what sensitivity is set in the advanced settings.

This is with 04.14, everyone has this issue? I really wanted to keep it unmodified to test it out, without flashing Siyah or similar, but it's a totally crazy with the sensitivity..

[Galaxy S II General] CruX.:
Thanks for the tipp, I tried XXLPR immediately.

For me, fallback to 3g doesn't work here, at least not while the screen is on (XXLPB did that), but I think it does it while the screen is turned off (any idea to find out if it really does?! NetworkMonitor supports logging, but only if the screen is turned on...)

Anyhow, I'd be really satisfied if this would be implemented in software, Samsungs modems are still black magic boxes (binaries :/) for us...
