Anyone care to cut the crap and let this thread get back on topic?

Just for the record, there are no issues with github links...... Obviously.

Indeed when you put down the numbers the bandwidth used its quite impressive.

A partial solution to drop the servers bandwidth usage would be to use torrents

but that's a discussion that has already been taken without a positive response :).

What impress me the most is the fact that you provide a professional support

(even better i could say !) without getting payed for it, but only counting on the

donation of the community (my self included) :)

I'm really not against the donations i have done some myself but i'm not

comfortable with the idea that some guys from the community (excluding devs

ofc) are profiting from the donations of others and are "laughing" behind their screens ...

Supporting the kind of service that you provide has a high cost so why don't you

try to offer different level of services ? you just have to be a bit creative :) i'm

sure their is some genius with a bit of commercial mind in your team ^^

So a long while back there was a link posted to another thread that had a GPS mod something like agps.google or something like that which greatly improved GPS lock time and was flashable through cwm but I cannot remember what thread it was nor can I search our lovely thread since I'm on mobile :rolleyes: anyone remember which one it was?
[Galaxy S II General] PeartFan40:
No problem. Sorry for the confusion concerning Github. My intentions were to be helpful, not to cause harm. Please accept my humble apologies. :)

My intention is not to 'cause harm' either, but I think you should remove that distasteful line from your signature.

Great update 17th build love the option to change the shortcuts in the notification menu be trying to find a app to do that THANKS,

seems smoother as well.

but has anyone got gps working or is it still broken?

An attempt to bring thread back on topic

Okay, so I've got the latest build running pretty much stable. First battery flat since flashing on Wed is about to happen today (Going to be a while since it's been going so well). Only issues I have so far are pretty much the known (Youtube,, Video recording/playback).

I have put MXPlayer on to try and get around videos issue for gallery stuff, but it's still slow? Any suggestions? I've set it to soft decode by default. Videos run but slightly slower than they should be which is weird.

Also Bluetooth works great, only issue is devices can see the phone, but the phone can't see devices. Obviously the device I'm looking for is set to discoverable but the phone doesn't see it? Anyone else notice this?

Cheers in advance

[Galaxy S II General] freemini:
I'm pretty sure this is an ICS bug so nothing related to CM9.
[Galaxy S II General] mintvilla:
Thats not the point, you cant "keep" anything in an AOSP rom, all the samsung apps require the samsung framework.
[Galaxy S II General] thacounty:
Yea, that could do it. Haha. I did install the patch though. It goes all the way to the end but won't start.
[Galaxy S II General] luizffgarcia:
You have to use 2.0 man, not 2.6.2. I tried 2.6.2 too and it didn't work either...
[Galaxy S II General] melorib:
How many times do you have to read that Siyah doesnt work with CM9... :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II General] luizffgarcia:
You are not following the problem mate, he wants a kernel with a working CWM so he can flash CM9.

Looks like we are not the ones not reading stuff... :p
[Galaxy S II General] melorib:
Any kernel with CWM should work, he must be doing something else wrong... :p
[Galaxy S II General] shotta35:
To get RID of these things is why CM9 was compiled in the first place. I like their Calculator but there's better ones than the stock versions in the market so no need for that crap. ICS Calendar is 10x better than Gingerbread, maybe 1.5x better than TouchWiz.

This is of-course a AOSP so if you are flashing this ROM it's basically because you don't want TouchWiz stuff. So for people that do, there's Bezkes ROM or others that keep all the Samsung stuff (crap, IMO). If you want that stay away from AOSP stuff. I don't know how that's not simple enough to understand.

That's like buying a Toyota and complaining it doesn't have features from an Acura or Mercedez, not because of their pricing but just cuz of the option is just not available on a Toyota (probably because of pricing still :D).

On another topic though:

Do pictures show up for people in the notification area for SMS on Jan 6 build? Seems they stopped for me. (I always do a full wipe, never restore anything).

any one know where to get it?
[Galaxy S II General] thacounty:
The number one rule of CM9 club is do not talk about ETA's. Also I think the final version is either tomorrow or July 32nd. Something like that.
[Galaxy S II General] Dorilife:
Its been asked and replied a few times, Jan or Feb..:rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II General] melorib:
If you are using CM7 just flash it again, otherwise flash CF-Root or Speedmod, for God sake forget Siyah...

Is it any better than codeworks CM9?
[Galaxy S II General] luizffgarcia:
No, he is not.

If you don't belive install Siyah 2.6.2 and try it yourself...

---------- Post added at 04:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:27 PM ----------

The guys are right on the other posts, you can use the CF-Root one and it will work as well... No need to use Siyah for this.
[Galaxy S II General] melorib:
Yes he is, maybe he installed Siyah over CM9, or something like that, I used Siyah before, its CWM is different, but it works, we just have to select a different option...

Again, why not just tell him to use another kernel, as you just did... :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II General] Funkyfin2000:
Guys I appreciate your help, but my phone is seriously messed up and I am not really that much of a noob!

Ive lived with a Hero, Desire and had a S2 for sometime!

Had been running CM7 no trouble, then tried ICS yesterday, was up and running perfectly, bar rebooting everytime screen went off for 20secs.

Tried to re flash it this morning and now had problems.

So where do I go...

Currently I have CWM-based Recovery 5.0.2.7.

I have Odin downloaded and have previously installed: CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXA_KP8-v5.2-CWM5.tar

But......that seems to berak the USB Mount.....

If I flash Siyah-v2.6.2.tar via Odin and Recovery, the usb mount works OK ish, can copy files but sometimes it just crashes.

Any how, if I try and install CW9 off the zip (if I finally get it copied to my SDcard) I get that error reported.

I will re flash the CF Root file above again and see what happens.

Sorry for being a pain and appreciate everyones help!
[Galaxy S II General] King Shady:
how about you do it yourself? Stop asking the devs for builds
[Galaxy S II General] SimboXXX:
You can try 1 of the following:

1. flash another kernel like lp6

2. Unmount sd card before installing

3. if you are restoring with Titanium, change in settings Restore to...Internal.
[Galaxy S II General] codeworkx:
This is just a painted samsung rom.

How do you compare a samsung rom with a aosp based rom?
[Galaxy S II General] SimboXXX:
The sammy based ICS don't have the bugs of cm9 and 99% of functions work, like video recording and mtp, but on the whole I find cm9 a smoother more coherent and satisfying experience; and when it's ready for proper release there won't be any comparison.

Try them both, it's a matter of personal taste.
[Galaxy S II General] :
So I went to buy a GN today; first place doesn't sell them outright. Go to another store and I said if I'm going to spend $650 CDN/USD on a phone, I want to do the pocket test, i.e. if it feels like a box of cereal in my front pocket, I won't buy it. "Sorry, we can't do that, we can't break a seal on the box", and they wouldn't remove the ship anchor like anti-theft chain from the demo.

[Galaxy S II General] dorsc:
hey all,

I'm having a microphone volume problem for the past week or so, the volume is very very low and the other person can't hear me at all unless I yell and then they hear a really low voice.

I thought it was a hardware problem but when I go to speaker mode the volume is great and the other person can hear me perfectly.

I've searched and found a code to dial in the dialer but when I finish typing it, it just clears and nothing happens.

Is there a way to adjust the microphone volume?

thanks :)
[Galaxy S II General] codeworkx:
logcat or gtfo. ;-)

This is the minimal Info you could have provided:

phone model?

build?

kernel?

logcat?

kernel log?
[Galaxy S II General] dorsc:
sorry, as you can see, I haven't posted anything before this..

phone model is of course samsung galaxy s II

latest build 02172012

kernel : 3.0.15-I19100XXLPH-CL118559 se.infra@SEI-45 #3

and sorry but I don't know what log cat and kernel log is :/
[Galaxy S II General] codeworkx:
Then we're not able to help you.

Didn't you notice that this rom is marked as "experimental" on only meant for testing? advanced users?
[Galaxy S II General] DAMAGE_INC29:
sorru but i dont know how to logcat too..teach us how to logcat, can u teach us how to logcat ^^,

btw i cant seem to install nenamark, webster dictionary, and some stuffs in my phone..tried some other stuff and its ok..it DL ANGRY BIRD with 19mb file i thinks and its ok..but in some apps its saying "cant intall to usb or sdcard"

Btw great work codeworkx I love having GNex ROM on my SGS2, I will wait patiently for future updates as I understand the work you do :D
[Galaxy S II General] bbgt2:
Have you tried flashing again and wiping everything? Maybe the file you dl something got corrupted while dl. Start fresh and see if that fixes it.
[Galaxy S II General] FelipeRRM:
Even those sammy based but with removed touchwiz? They even use CM launcher...

And what's mtp?
[Galaxy S II General] codeworkx:
Touchwiz is not just a launcher.

It's a virus which goes through the whole system. :-P

The TW-Framework cannot be removed.

The world behind what you're seeing is much bigger than the world you're seeing.
[Galaxy S II General] TheSaw:
Search for it yourself, you can find info about it all over the place. And that it a known bug, stop crying about it. Let more experienced users use the ROM until it's more stable.

Hope you can ignore my laziness, but can you link me to the repo?
[Galaxy S II General] dorsc:
I have used this ROM for a month now but after the latest build (and after the mic problem started) I decided to wipe and start clean so I did. and it's still the same..

Isn't there a way to adjust the volume of the in-call microphone?
[Galaxy S II General] Banger242:
So you tell a guy to search for something himself and then ask for a link in the next sentence. Classic.
[Galaxy S II General] FelipeRRM:
They have default ICS icons, ICS Dialer, ICS Launcher, I just can't think what else TW affects...
[Galaxy S II General] :
The

entire firmware

is Touchwiz based; i.e. the framework, etc... CM9 is build from source. ICS is more than a theme.
[Galaxy S II General] SimboXXX:
Most of the sammy roms are fine but Cm9 is just sexy :)

And mtp is what lets you transfer files to your computer through USB, though as some very helpful member informed me - Droid Explorer does the job.

Flashing a earlier version does that fix the mic volume? I don't know of any way to adjust the mic volume thru any command adb or other. I would try to flash a earlier build and see if that fixes it and if that does then flash the latest, the best advice I can offer.

Can you boot into CWM?

Can you boot into download mode?

If you can boot into CWM:

1. Wipe data/factory reset and see if that works.

2. If it does not work reflash CM9.

If you can boot only into download mode:

1. Flash a ROM via Odin.

If you can't boot into download mode or CWM you are screwed.
[Galaxy S II General] bibymon:
i wiped data and everything is fine..i just wanted to know whethr there is any way other than wiping data..lazy to restore everything. ;) anyway thanks for trying to help me. :) but after the wipe market seems to be too slow :(

This is nothing which will change in future.

The SGS2 is a 240 dpi device. And on 240 everything works fine.

I'm pretty sure Android OS in ICS now shows background activity percentage. I'm also sure 4.0.4 fixes its high usage, so I think my first theory is wrong.
[Galaxy S II General] spirouzbe:
When using Bluetooth tethering with my car i have to each time reactivate the data tethering through Bluetooth. It doesn't keep the setting.

To be more specific the system setting for tethering over Bluetooth is selected.

But when the phone connects to the car Bluetooth i have a notification in the notification bar to configure Bluetooth tethering settings.

That's were the setting is never selected and i have to select it each time the phone connects to the car.

Is this a bug or wanted behavior ?
[Galaxy S II General] bibymon:
that was an awesome answer ;) there is another way,pull out the battery :P
[Galaxy S II General] codeworkx:
You probably just don't undestand how the usage statistics works. That's all.

And if there's a problem you failed in not providing logs. Magical Orb only shows dust, cannot see your problem through it.
[Galaxy S II General] Remoteconcern:
The battery isn't draining faster - or if it is, its something else!

4.0.3 Android OS stats seem to add display time, rather than subtract, so the percentage is reported higher than it is. Nothing to worry about, and the reporting error is fixed in 4.0.4 (according to reports, anyway)

Hope that helps.

anyone having problem with astro file manager??options(in the top such as cut,copy,multi etc) not showing in mine..but i flashed cm9 on my friend's sgs2 and astro is working fine on his phone..how come it happened on mine??i have reflashed ROM,wiped data..nothing helps..any ideas?? if not any suggestions for a replacement.i already have root explorer..
[Galaxy S II General] Gustopher:
I'd support the view that battery isn't as good on this build. No other variables that I am aware of have changed on my phone other than the ROM.

There's lots of 'stuff' happening on the builds as I understand it, so it's largely inevitable that some builds will be better on battery than others. It is also very likely that the way a build responds to my individual setup will be a factor, i.e. different people may get different experiences with the same build.

Ultimately I know I can switch back to the previous build if I feel it is becoming a problem.
[Galaxy S II General] :
go into settings and apps and find astromanager and clear data and cache....ehh suggestions use filemanager maybe;)
