[Galaxy S II Android Development] Frozenthunder:
What? I don't got any apps installed that use GPS except Navigon Select. Also why would such an app cause GPS not to work? I was enabling GPS and nothing happened (just like it should be, since no app would use GPS anyways), then started Navigon and the GPS symbol appeared in the notification bar but it was hollow for like a minute. Never got any signal.

Okeeey, I have one big problem with 2.4.1...

Sometimes when i receive a sms are the vibration and phone freeze. So the only way out is to remove the battery.

So the phone is in an endless vibration with black screen (was in deep sleep).. Might this be kernel, UV related? :)

Didnt do a fullwipe from 2.4 but did one from 2.3 so that can be the problem too but I'm asking if someone have had the same :) Otherwise will I do a full wipe when Westcrips releases 2.5
[Galaxy S II Android Development] CandyAndy:
I dont know why but I just cant install this ROM. I get always stuck either on Samsung bootlogo or Siyah kernel logo.

I have basically tried every possible with the custom installation. Even without selecting anything. Yet it always gets stuck.

How come everyone else seems to be getting this right?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] RoseN-95:
Wipe data/factory reset, Format system.. Install ROM, fix permissions?

Tried? :D My 5 cents
[Galaxy S II Android Development] GaboWinter:
Clearly i missunderstood your post, i think that you say that your GPS start to work without reason, my mistake.

For your issue maybe you can try changing of Modem

I don't read about some issue like this one, but if you have access to the phone yes, try changing the kernel. Also, i recommend the full wipe always, but as you said it's better to wait until the next update, maybe comes soon :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] CandyAndy:
Yeah :) Thanks for the cents anyway. I am basically a romholic. I flash every week new roms. Right now just to get things working installed Dragon ROM, no problems all goes smoothly. But wanted to try this ROM cause heard so much good but something strange is happening. Just wont work.

Stupid question but what's the last toggle in that screenshot for (the battery one)? Is this fast charge or something?

It would be cool if there would be CPU clock speeds included in the powersave mode and if you could toggle that with toggles. Like powersave mode= only 200-600mhz and a toggle for that. Always wanted something like that. I can browse some websites with barely having lags at only 600mhz max and you really feel a difference in battery consumption that way. And when I browse that websites using 1,2ghz as max frequency the CPU spends like 24% of time on that frequency according to CPU Spy.

Ok.. So i just came across this fun thing. Dont know how many know this already..

-Go to Settings - About Phone

-Click repeatedly like your fingers are on fire on 'Android Version'

-Soon you will see this tiny blue arrow pointer in the middle of the screen and a text saying Android 4.0.4 Ice Cream Sandwich.

-Now long press on this arrow and the screen will vibrate and the arrow will keep getting larger. Keep it pressed and dont let go.

-And voila! Soon you will suddenly see Nyandroids flying across the screen!!

-To exit, hit the back button.

happened to me a few times since 2.3 too, at least when going from 50-60% to red <13% when going to recovery, I just connect the charger to be safe, do what I went to recovery to do, and reboot.. and it seems to be back to normal again.

Probably a random GFX bug.. not reproducable in any reliable way (at least not by me) :(

I love your rom but again i got bug my system when i wont to pick my alarm ringtone my mp3 songs the are multuplied 3 times and when i try to take pic on my face camera crash after shoot and do not save pic. Sorry for my sepling
[Galaxy S II Android Development] GaboWinter:
1.- Try move the sounds of alarm to the path /system/media/audio

2.- Take a look on the FAQ: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=27743483&postcount=49045

3.- It's a known issue, hopefully will be solved in future releases
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Donkeytrousers:
I'm not sure about the alarm issue but I solved the duplicate media files by unmounting my SD card in system settings. Then open gallery and mp3 player to see that there are no files found.

Then remount SD and wait for media scanner to finish.

If this does not cure it do a cache wipe and dalvick cache wipe while SD is unmounted.

Hope this helps. It works for me.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Frozenthunder:
This is exactly the way you should not threat a Li-ion battery.

But what do you mean with "let it go for 3 cycles"? Also the resetting of the fuel gauge chip is useless, especially when you want to fully charge your phone anyways. It's just temporary. My faul gauge once went crazy (phone was charged to 70% but after reboot it said 8%. Reset it and it was at 54%) and I reset it, that's what it's useful for.

I got the same issues. What I'm also noticing is that if you charge your battery by for example 40% (30 to 70), unplug your phone, let it rest and wait an hour or more, then it will slightly go up to over 80%. Or if you heavily use it and then put it to standby, it goes down by 15% while it's actuall in deep sleep. It's like the fuel gauge is very inaccurate, and sometimes when you heavily use it and restart your phone it "resets" itself and shows you a more accurate value.

I'm very sure that this delayed charging effect didn't happen on my stock Rom with Siyah, I'm not sure about the other 2 effects though.

I think that this also (but not only) has to do with the wear level of the battery. If your battery is very worn then it logically will drain faster, but your fuel gauge chip doesn't know how worn it is so it just decreases the displayed % like usually while the REAL charge level is way lower because your battery decharges faster than a new one.

The same also happens on my notebook (The battery gauge randomly jumps to a low value.) . On my old notebook too. And on my PSP.

I also wonder how the battery gauge behaves when you got a 2000mah battery. Anyone here who has a 2000mah battery?

As far as I know there's also no way to read out any wear level related data from the faul gauge chip or the system or anything. On most devices (notebooks for example) you can read out an estimated wear level. On the SGS 2 you can't so I doubt that the phone itself even knows how worn your battery is.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Faseeh Rehman:
Flash the lockscreen mod again and fix permisions
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Frozenthunder:
Can someone explain what fixing permissions actually does in that case? I hear everyone saying "wipe cache, fix permissions,etc. etc." but it seems that no one has an idea what he's talking about.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Ibsonic:
ive tried this but, neither cwm app or CWM recovery itself dont recognizes zImage becouse it dont have any extention ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Faseeh Rehman:
Permissions are explained here:

http://www.legend.ws/blog/tips-trick...ons-explained/

Since Android is based on the Linux kernel, the same basic file permissions scenarios apply as those outlined above.

In simple terms, when permissions get messed up, you may lose the ability to access or edit files over which you normally should have control, or you may gain control over files which normally you shouldn't, which can cause random problems, like Force Close, etc. in Android.

Repairing the permissions is a housekeeping measure, to keep things neat and tidy. Sometimes, after a repair, you'll have to redo some settings, etc.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Pigmachine:
I myself think the batterylife on both 2.3 and 2.4.1 is really good! Maybe try out another kernel?

I rather see total stability, at the cost of 5 hours less batterytime, But it's not up to west to 100% either batterylife or stability, since he have an almost 'premade' base to work on, and port, adapt and optimize for our phone, and add his own little touch to it. I agree that no really new additions are needed at once on 2.5. Just stability fixes, after the build 39, it would be really refreshing.

But there will not be 5 hours less batterytime. since it's been more or less around the same for quite a while, and it's been exactly to my liking, and I use Siyah 3.3.2 and used almost every Siyah released for ICS.

We can just hope build 40 give west a good stable base to work on ;)

Batterylife is good on 2.4.1 depends how you use it!

Depends on your kernel and usage, most is in the ROM, tweak it yourself eg, UC.

Use extweaks to do that!

Remember

1 functionality

2 batterylife

When your battery will last for a week, and you cant call ?!

So if your priority no1 is batterylife, tweak it!!!
