Just reporting a bug. The battery bar on the status bar does not scale properly when the screen is rotated.

Running Slim 4.1
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] saszseb:
Coming from CM9 I didn't wipe anything. Just flashed Slim_4.1 as a nightly on CM9. ( I always updated Slim ROMs without wipe).

Don't encourage them :p
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sudeepm:
While upgrading from 4 to 4.1 do i need to take all sorts of backups like nandroid etc..and do a factory reset?

Also..if i simply upgrade by flashing the two zips..wud settings like the nova launcher screen setup etc be wiped??

Just wondering what all precautions need to be taken before upgrading..thx!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] slaphead20:
Simple cache /dalvik wipe with clear ns tools and init.d does it, wether you want to do a nandroid is up to you, but always recommended :)

Hi, I have just updated from 4.0 to 4.1 When I try to open Tasker I get the message "Unfortunately, Tasker has stopped". Can anyone help - it worked perfectly in 4.0 and also in v3.x. Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] slaphead20:
probably a problem with app data, but try fix permissions first in recovery
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sudeepm:
Thanks for the quick response. Will flash and report!! :good:

Edit: looks like it went fine. Couple of questions that i had:

- when i install semaphore on top of this..what good are apps like dsp manager as against voodoo sound..nstools against semaphore manager..basically apps with similar functionality. Can these cause conflicts st any point??

- i noticed that the google music app disappeared after upgrade. Is this expected for apps downloaded from Update Me. Havent noticed any other apps disappearing yet.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Kodon:
Hey guys. I'm on 3.5 for a very long time now. Today it suddenly rebooted and now its stock on the slim boot logo... how can i fix this without loosing any data? i dont have any backups from my apps :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] wallace5:
Thanks for the quick reply. I have tried Fixing permissions (in recovery) and I have tried clearing App data. Unfortunately that doesn't solve the problem.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] saszseb:
Flash Semaphore.tar kernel via Odin or Heimdall!

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Kodon:
Okay, i will try when i'm home. badly i'm at work and my phone suddenly stopped working... do you know the matter ? how can this happen? i didnt change or flash anything for a long time. especially no kernel settings
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] slaphead20:
Try an uninstall and reinstall?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] slaphead20:
Can you get into recovery? If so, then reflashing the ROM may be worth trying if you are desperate to get it working?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Kodon:
recovery works, yes but a reflash would wipe everything or not?

for now i have to get it working because i have some stuff which i need for example my contacts and some importang short messages. if i could get my phone working for some hours then i would do a complete clean install with 4.1 since my 3.5 version is really old. i didnt have time since my last flash because of my finals so.... i'm just wondering how something can happen
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] saszseb:
Can you get to recovery via 3BC?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Kodon:
yes it works. i wiped cache and dalvik already but it didnt change anything, still stuck on bootlogo. fix permissions also didnt change anything. i think i will reflash the kernel when i'm home, maybe that works. how bad that i dont have my usb cable with me....
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] saszseb:
- wipe cache and dalvik: I don't use them. Why should I use? They won't help you.

- fix permissions: used on CM7 world. On ICS it does nothing. Useless.

- If I were you: factory reset, reflash the Slim, then upgrade to Slim_4.1.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] superkoal:
If you finally get your usb cable you dont have to flash via odin, just flash your kernel (semaphore?) from cwm after mounting usb storage and putting the downloaded file on your internal sd.

You also might just put your ext. sd into a cardreader and store the kernel zip on it. You can mount it in cwm in storage menu.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] slaphead20:
Reflashing the ROM/essentials/gapps shouldn't wipe anything, just be aware that coming from 3.5 to 4.1 will require a full wipe due to framework changes, if my memory serves me right.... Anyone confirm?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Kodon:
yeah it required a full wipe from 3.5 to 3.6 also back then... that was the main reason for not to update because i switched to ics just 3 days before back then...

i will try to organize a cable and flash the semaphore kernel again. when this helps i'll finally backup all and do a full clean install with 4.1.

superkoal: good point. although i dont have a sd-ext i could try to find one here in my workplace. had never thought of that :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] saszseb:
If he get in recovery, why to use the USB cable? To flash anything in recovery no need any cable.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] saszseb:
No confirmed.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Kodon:
i think he means that i can transfer the needed files onto my sd card on that way
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] wallace5:
Hi slaphead20, I have now tried an uninstall and re-install, but with the same result.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] saszseb:
Don't you have any ROM.zip saved on your int.SD card?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] caper:
Confirm !

But in 3.5 there was only ROM + Essencials

jmcdpereira
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Kodon:
okay guys. i found a cable and reflashed now semaphore kernel... still stuck on slims sliding bootlogo... how can i reflash the rom without loosing any data?

first base then essentials without any wipe ??

edit: sorry guys. i have 3.6 and not 3.5 but that shouldnt change anything. the question is still the same
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] prbassplayer:
Go in recovery and reflash rom. Rom doesn't wipe data, just cache and dalvik cache... as been said before...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Kodon:
yeah ok. sorry i'm a little bit distracted at moment because i'm in the office right now :)

but since i only did clean installs till now... do i have to reflash base + essentials + gapps or is base enough ?

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] saszseb:
- go recovery

- select "mounts and storage"

- connect your phone to the PC

- select "mount (int) USB storage

- copy your important files, data, folders to the PC.

- select "umount sdcard"

- remove the cable

- factory reset (optional)

- flash a ROM.

- reboot.

(You can grab Slim_4.1 and Slim Common and save to the PC and then copy it to the int.SDcard as I described above, then flash them)

Later on Slim_4.1 you can copy your saved files, etc from PC to the int/ext SD card.

(There is a great feature of Titanium Backup. You can create a TB.zip file via TB, this will be saved on your int.SDcard and you can flash it as a ROM in recovery).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Kodon:
Okay, here is what i did.

- Put Base 3.6 and Essentials + Semaphore Kernel on my Sd Card

- Done a cache and dalvik wipe as its mentioned in the instructions

- flashed Base, then essentials, then semaphore

- reboot

Still stuck on Slims Bootanimation...

Is there no chance to get it working without doing a full wipe ?! i have to backup my apps and userdata with titanium but i cant boot...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] slaphead20:
Wasn't there a gapps for 3.6 as well, not that it would cause that problem.....sounds like a good clean instal needed
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Kodon:
Yeah it seems so. But how to avoid problems like that? That rom is in usage for just 2 months or something. It can't be that i have to live with the fear that it can happen sometimes again.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] slaphead20:
I'm wondering if it's linked to datadata problem in any way, I guess the lesson to be learned is the, old as time, backup often one, and with automation in titanium it isn't something that needs thinking about

About wifi issues - just found this: http://code.google.com/p/android/is...=ID Type Status Owner Summary Stars&start=100 ,

intresting comments 29,21,55 and especially comment 98 - its about wifi_country_code and/or the updated wifi firmware for ICS (comment 98 for NexusS), maybe this can help somehow?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] krarvind:
thanks for this. its def an odd issue thhat only happens for few users. I think my latest patch has fixed i believe.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mialwe:
Ok, just thought I should post this as I read in the comments the firmware might have been updated twice during ICS developement and a google employee posted 24 Jan. posted "Mohannad I don't have announcement for releasing a fix at this time, but we are working on it." and the issue seems to be still open for 4.0.3.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pantso:
Hello again to everyone!

krarvind, I have tried since yesterday all solutions provided.

First of all, (pure slim installation after JVU with 2.6 and no changes except busybox), set system to factory reset, formatted system, wiped dalvic, installed 2.6 again, installed JVU modem which worked fine with v1 and v2.5, and rebooted multiple times. Result was toggling wifi.

Then, installed patch wifi fix v3. Result was successful but turning off and then again on my wifi resulted to toggling wifi again. Patcing again would fix the problem until turning off and then on my wifi.

Will try now the fix of downgrading the firmware of the chip and report back.

EDIT:

After applying the older version of bcm4329.bin in /system/vendor/firmware trough root explorer and rebooting, things came back to normal regarding wifi toggling in v2.6. Seems to be a solid fix :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kuberchib:
yes i flashed addons..I can see the voice typing option in input settings..I have checked it too in settings but the option to switch b/w keyboard n voice doesn't appear in notification bar like 2.5..m running stock slim ics (only change is 200 dpi)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lascoul:
Wifi bug still here

i am still getting wifi toggle on 2.6 even after i have flashed the wifi pacth
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Witalka 15:
get Wifi toggle too after patching .. :( ..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Brignoud:
Somebody obvoiusly read some of my posts earlier about "some apps" not working.

Now I'll let you know personal experience and what I discovered.

Genesis:"some app" state phone was not rooted and need to upgradre busybox or su.

Slim 2.5 didn't have newer version of busybox and installing new versione solve the question.

Slim 2.6 as reported from busybox installar got the newer release (1.19.4) but a special version seems to be present (system/xbin) named 1.19.4-cm9.

Now, I wonder if the two versions are really different. I mean, and asked on xda, is there a really need to installa this special version?

I tried installed anyway the "normal" version from busybox installer, surprise now all seems to work fine and "my app" now works.

But, the really surprise is before installation system/xbin folder was almost empty and now is plenty of newer files.

Question, no not really, two question

Does CM9/ICS really need this special busybox version x.xx.xx-cm?

Why system/bin was so poor before? Don't we really need all busybox components?

Just to let you know, not to complain anybody

Really really satisfied with this my first ICS ROM ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mialwe:
Nice to hear it worked for you.

Never tried market versions of busybox myself but this sounds like the market busybox installer creates all the symlinks to busybox just like they are created e.g. if we compile CWM only (brings it's own busybox binary from sources, maybe to ensure beeing independent from users busybox version) so /system/xbin contains busybox binary + >140 symlinks for cat, echo, dd, cp, free,... which are basically executing "busybox cat", "busybox echo",...

Those symlinks seem to be missing on 2.5 and/or 2.6 (= /system/xbin is really slimmed down), the busybox binary itself is there. As long as apps do not rely on the symlinks and use "/system/xbin/busybox <symlinkname>" instead everything should work fine.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] krarvind:
from 2.5? Or? Pm me the bin file
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Witalka 15:
thanks Dude works 4 me :D

if someone want test.. here is the file.. :D

edit: not more.. im back to 2.5 :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] BusterSG:
haha no i did not try. still enjoying 2.5 atm

regarding wifi toggle, when i insall TEAMICS 4.1, i had this issue.

then paul provided a wifi patch on his 1st post. it solved the issue.

of course some people are fine with 4.1 with no wifi issue but i'm not the lucky one but the wifi patch did solved it.

days later, paul released 4.2 and i wipe data/ cache etc and install 4.2

there is no wifi toggle or any issue at all.

paul took out the wifi patch from post 1, below is the details of the patch file (WifiFix.zip) which i still have,

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] krarvind:
is it still working fine? you pushed it to system/vendro/firmware and this was the file? reason i ask is there is no such file currently in sgs or nexus s ( i own both). there is a fw_bcm4329.bin but not the file you posted which is bcm4329.bin
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pantso:
I did it the Greek way, if I may say... renamed the nexus file by deleting the "fw_" and removed the bcm4329.hcd from the /system/vendor/firmware directory replacing it by the nexus one, keeping the extension" bin" and not "hcd". It is dirty solution but it still works like a charm and additionally I had no sudden reboots. I used to have those 1-2 per day with the original 2.6

what do you think, should i try a datadata format or would this also delete all my applications.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Rebel2k:
Yeah, no problem, thank you for trying to help me!

I did exactly what can be found on the slimroms official website:

From a Froyo/GB ROM

1.Download device_x.x.zip and Slim_Common.zip

2.Enter CWM Recovery, Wipe data, Format System ( In Mounts and Storage)

3.Flash Device_x.x.zip***, then Slim_Common.zip.

4.Reboot to system, Enjoy.

*** - If the flash is too quick ( < 5 seconds or so), reflash base before flashing essentials. <== ****IT WAS THE CASE FOR ME****

Too bad, cause at the end of step 4 at the moment, I'm not enjoying SlimRom yet! :(

EDIT: Got my IMEI back when flashed JW6. But would like to stay on ICS because after having seen the speed of the UI 30 seconds, I'm amazed!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] saszseb:
Do the following:

- flash JW6 via Odin/Heimdall

- flash mngb. kernel via O/H.

- turn off your phone

- go recovery

- factory reset

- flash CM9 nightly

- After booting up

- go recovery

- factory reset

- flash Slim/Essential/gapps.

- reboot

I always do these coming from JW6.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] slaphead20:
You have missed r the flashing nightly step
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Rebel2k:
Ok, will try that, thank you both! By the way, on the official website, this step isn't mentionned...

is the nightly just necessairy for when you come from GB/Froyo or even if you come from another ics rom?

Flashed this 4.1 and it is VERY fast but the playstore didn`t work, there was no root and no keyboard ×…× oh before I was on slim 4, i wiped data and did the same thing what the install guide says
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] slaphead20:
ok, here is correct sequence from gb

1) download nightly, slim/ essentials/gapps(for 3.6)

or 1a)nightly slim and common(for 4.1)

2) boot recovery and flash nightly

3) factory reset and format system in mounts and storage

4)flash the previously downloaded slim components in order listed in either 1 or 1a

5) smile and feel the speed, i recommend not trying to restore app data with titanium....hope all is clear now :)
