[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] exadeci:
@xiaohanhan no and your phone seems to be a galaxy s2

Is this normal that when powersaving is turned on data (if checked to turn off) won't turn on by itself ??

Great rom most stable and apn working perfectly

Isn't there a way to show the AM/PM in the statusbar? I checked "ASS" and it's not there, unfortunately.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Candanga:
have any clowns appear after the party pack installation? Have the lights on the semaphore changed lately? Has cpu throttling affecting your remote control or microwave?

If any of this questions answer a NO (or even a YES), you are in the wrong thread bud.

Who the hell is Bhuv?

EDIT: Semaphore ICS 0.8.1 is out.

---------- Post added at 04:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:28 PM ----------

krarvind and all,

Does this https://market.android.com/details?id=og.android.tether works for you in stock Slim ICS?

Read in AOKP that it could be an alternative (and now I know who's Bhuv and what is a party pack!).

Regards,
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] saszseb:
No. It worked fine with me. I was playing with the settings to test. Root Explorer and Semaphore apk.s were open and checked what happend after the ticking/unticking. The copy of modules was performing.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] krarvind:
Well WIFI tethering works by default for me, but thats because i own a Nexus S and not a SGS :p. Somebody else has to test it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DarkSorcerer:
Thank you. Maybe I should try and install the ROM with wipe. In next update I will do that.

Things to test

Internal and External Sd mounting on PC

Wifi Tethering

Pls report. Rest should work fine. Wifi Tethering works now is what i am hearing.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] millerm:
Thanks for this great ROM.

I've never had issues flashing ROM's before, however, now I've tried 3 times already and superuser is still not working. It asks for the right, grants them, however it still doesn't work after that.

I've tried flashing superuser zip file, which doesn't work. Kinda confused now.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] krarvind:
which one?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tobiasth:
LOL, first mount via USB gives me external SD Card, second mount (only switched on/off) gives me internal SD Card ...

edit: seams its a miracle ;) often external, sometimes internal sd card on the same drive! ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] krarvind:
Both don't mount simultaneously? Can you try a differnet kernel? but before that pls try wifi tethering
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tobiasth:
only one drive and i got the internal only 2 times!

with Devil 1.1 kernel its the same ...

wifi tethering isn't working for me, regardless of which kernel default or devil!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] krarvind:
Ok. THanks. Will look into it. Wifi was working for one of my testers. Use Stable version (1.0) until then. Cheers
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tobiasth:
i don't need it :D

mounting the sd card's is more important for me.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] krarvind:
v2.0 will be made stable when that is fixed. Cheers. If you like the new boot animation, you can push it manually.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] siky_dude:
Wifi thetering works on my side.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] shumilica:
I don't know about tethering but mount sd card only mounts the external sd card. The internal card can be seen but not accessed.

I'm talking about v2, which is also my first ICS ROM.

Keep up the good work, it's great snappy ROM until now!

I have altough one question:

Where can we adjust the intensity of the vibration when the softkeys/keyboard is pressed. I can see an adjusment in time of the keypress in keyboard setting, but there is no difference if it's on minimum (1ms).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] krarvind:
2.0 is experimental only. use 1.0 for daily use until i release 2.x stable.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] krarvind:
if its not there, its not. enough clock on the screen.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DarkSorcerer:
Just to say that everything is running smoothly on my side.

krarvind, no news on 4.0.5? :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] krarvind:
nothing yet, but plenty changes in 3.0 to keep ppl excited.

Fast Charge in Kernel and Controlled via ASS - thanks to chad0989 for FC patch

Free Mem increase via kernel and device ( increase of about 40 MB) - thanks to Kali of CM team for source

Face book Sync

Nav Bar via ASS, turned off by default

Calendar ( text ) in lockscreen, turned off by default again

Kernel Tweaks via ASS - thanks to AOKP for source

Base and Essentials pretty much remain the same size :)

Big boost in benchmark performance via secret sauce :p

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] nevzat74:
I wonder how much MB of total ram there will be.

Interestingly, both my Galaxy Tab P1000 and Galaxy S have 512 MB of RAM in theory. However I see 440 MB total on Galaxy Tab ICS rom, and 327 MB total on Galaxy S. I have seen max 340 MB total RAM on my Galaxy S on some rom's in the past. Can we have a larger total/free ram on SGS with this rom?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DarkSorcerer:
Is it the same fast charge used by Galaxian? Couldn't that be harmful for our batteries?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] krarvind:
This is the message from the patch creator for Nexus S. I am using it in both now, haven't done extended testing, but its turned off by default and if you don't want it, keep it that way. It's also smart in turning off usb data connectioin, so no harm to data happens

"Depends entirely on the USB source you plugged into. If the source can put out more than the 500mA that chargers that are detected as USB are limited to, then it should pull the max amount of current it can from the source. For example most car chargers easily put out ~1A+ but are still detected as USB and thus the phone only draws 500mA from it. If you toggle force fast charge on and then plug it in, it should be detected as AC and pull the full 1A.

I do not own a nexus S so I can't comment on the normal charge speed, but I was told that the phone also does not sleep while detected as USB. So even if you connect to a USB source that can only put out 500mA, with force AC charging your phone should be able to still sleep and therefore draw less current than without it. In this scenario it will still charge faster, but only slightly."

How to Use it:

Turn the Fast Charge toggle on first, then plug your phone to teh usb cable, if you see on your phone usb connected, then you didn't do it right. redo the procedure. once done charging, unplug and turn toggle off.

to manually verify, check /sys/kernel/fastcharge/force_fast_charge, when toggle is on, it will be 1 and when toggle off it will be 0.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mialwe:
You can get 340Mb usable RAM with modified kernels like Semaphore, Glitch, Midnight (first two may provide even a little bit more, don't know exactely, Midnight=340Mb). This can be achieved by tuning some reserved memory allocations (as low as possible while maintaining functionality) and removing debug/unneeded kernel stuff.

Tweaking those reserved memory values in kernel even more will give you a bigmem kernel with >350Mb free RAM but without some video recording functionality.

Completely removing video hardware acc. from kernel seems to give >400Mb usable RAM (as done with chinese kernel in general section).

Don't know what can be done from ROMs side.

@krarvind: I completely respect your work (and use Slim myself again) but there's one question I have about almost all ICS ROMs, why are more and more kernel config options built into ROM's option menus? Why not just let kernels deliver kernel config apps and ROM's ROM config options? Is this really "Clean, [...] - The Google Way" ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] krarvind:
I am no kernel dev but i do compile my own based on sources and these commits caught my eye. Users are free to flash whatever and thats the point of slim essentials, they can change it before flashing. Base remains the same.

https://github.com/KalimochoAz/samsung-kernel-crespo/commit/538bae6ee1b5c15ba819b6e292c22d6c7349f5c4

https://github.com/KalimochoAz/samsung-kernel-crespo/commit/316912acbe1a35e6b6f5499100ad7c5416f6929f

plus the device commit

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/andr...mmit/c4e12aeb96cf52a624dab7513ce93ee2f6b482a2

This is no big mem change or anything, just limiting the mem size for video recording usage etc.

I see nothing wrong with providing options via Stock Slim. Midnight provides an app, but not all kernels do and this is not meant to undermine kernel devs. So i don't see an issue. PM me otherwise.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DarkSorcerer:
If it's turned off by default, it's fine by me.

Nice explanation, btw. Thank you.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mialwe:
@krarvind: Nah, it's not an issue, I was just interested as there are plenty of tuning apps out there, other kernels have their own control apps and doubled/spread (CPU menu, BLN->display menu (that's my favourite, it's not enough to activate BLN via BLNControl but I have to set ROM->settings->display_notification, too), ...) options seem a little bit confusing to me, not really slim.

But that's my personal opinion only :) No need to pm, all fine, thanks again for your great work, I really appreciate it.

Rest of my last post about mem was just a little bit of information for anybody interested in how the "standard" memory optimizations in kernels worked until now. Your approach is something new :)

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] nevzat74:
Thank you @mialwe. This is the best explanation of RAM dilemma for me.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] krarvind:
Well i am slowly getting there where ASS can control everything :p, but being an One man army supporting 6 devices ain't easy. RIght now when i have the time i want set up all so moving forward when i don't have this much time, i can maintain it easy. I am looking for help and volunteers can PM me. right now ASS duplicates some NS tools features but not all, once it has all NS tools features, we don't need NS tools or BLN app. all can be controlled via ASS.

yes, my approach is really Kali's for crespo, i just put the same for SGS, seems to work fine. You can view my commits on it if you are interested.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] krarvind:
what do you think? one of them says kernel source :p, the other one should remain across kernels, but its just BM performance, to me slim has always been fast no matter what the benchmark says.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] BYRoN_ITA:
I think that SlimICS with midnight kernel is one of the best duo here :p I don't know why but Midnight kernel improved the video playback for me: with stock kernel I had some choppy playback with H/W decoded videos (like MP4/MKV) while with the midnight kernel all videos are smooth. Apart of that the speed of UI and the battery life seem more or less equal (very good performance for both).

I also have the i9000m. It is a quad band GT-i9000 with a silly and confusing Vibrant branding attached. This was confusing to me too at first because of the T957 Vibrant in the U.S.. You should always choose i9000 or galaxysmtd. Also you should always use 850 band modems like JL2, KC1 or everyone's favourite KG3.

kravind, impossible to install an ICS ROM, neither your ROM !

What i did?

Flashed a SAM ROM via Odin.

Flashed a kernel(Semaphore) to have CWM.

When installing the ROM, the progress bar appears, and the phone reboots and keeps rebooting.

If i want to access to recovery another time, i simply can't, the recovery diseappears !

Any idea please? Bootloader issues?

Definitely something wrong with the RIL in 3.0.

No data or voice on 3G. Even when I try to put it in airplane mode it doesn't disable the connection. I'm looking at logcat, but I don't see anything that indicates what the problem might be there...

If there's anything specific I can help you with let me know.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ballsofsteel:
This ROM is slick and fast, very impressive indeed. However, the lack of Japanese and Chinese support renders this ROM unusable for me. I wish additional language packs could be added to cater to those who need them, but I wouldn't get my hopes up given the firm tone in the first post that no additional languages would be added :( Still, I very much appreciate the effort you guys put into this ROM, and all the best for making it even better!

Fonts

Download any ICS rom and extract DroidSansFallback.ttf font (it's under system/fonts). It should be around 5MB. Then you can use Font Changer (root) from Market to replace your old font with this one.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Barcors:
For all who have issues with installation of ICS.

I have noticed that ROM must be installed twice at once! Yes, and this is somehow connected with CWM. With older one (on Gingerbread) ICS cant be installed normally that's why we should install ROM twice at once. Firs time new CWM is installed with new ROM and second time is needed that ROM could be normally installed with new CWM. Something like that.

Twice - that's mean when you are in CWM installing new ROM you do this once and second time without going to reboot system!

I hope helped someone.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Brignoud:
I thinks this is not really true

I use to

revirgin with JUV, Repartition if you want

Rooting vith any kernel introducing mod cwm flashad via Odin

Flash via CWM the new kernel (ICS K, wathever semaphore or other)

Don't reboot

Flash the two parts of Slim

This works everytime for me.

I have to admit, sometimes it happens a weird problem, the launcher doesn't show the dock icons.

But the rom itselfes running well.

Sweet baby Jesus.... that extra RAM is an AWESOME addition, my phone is much faster now, everything runs smooth with the extra ram. Screen redraws are crazy fast now. (used to take 4-6 seconds for a redraw, now it takes 2 seconds :D Best update so far !!

Data is working fine too :)

Thanks for this ROM, it is amazing and frequent updates are so good :)

Would there be anyway to incorporate unread txt messages to show on the lock screen? That would be a welcome addition i think :) (I know you can do it with aftermarket lock screens but i don't want that.)

What a GREAT ROM... FANTASTIC, love it... Although I don't use the default kernel, this ROM is a keeper.
