The same happened to me. Where is the phone.apk fix?

Thanks.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gsw5700:
if you mean the gps fix, I used black sticky insulation tape, cut up little strips and placed over gps antenna (being careful not to touch the power button) until the battery cover wouldn't clip on, then removed the last 2 strips, use gps test and watch the satelite locks light up like a christmas tree! hope it lasts...

First of all thank you for your work in putting this ROM together, it is great to have a fast and stable ICS on my Galaxy S :)

I just would like to note the issues I have had in my short experience with it:

The GPS performance is much worse than the Samsung Gingerbread ROM I was using before. While I was on the bus the phone could only do cell-tower positioning (guessing based on accuracy and the fact I wasn't even in the zone it highlighted).

Standing out in the open I was only getting 100-m accuracy.

Perhaps a driver problem here. I notice others with the same experience.

Would appreciate it very much if you could fix this for the next release.

Also if someone knows of an alternate kernel or other temp fix for now?

The power-saver that can automatically turn off 3G and data seems like a really great feature but I had to turn it off because it sometimes did not activate 3G and data again when I was trying to use online apps.

Also I only had it set to turn off 3G, not disable data but it did that anyway.

I'm impressed with battery life, seems similar to Samsung-based ROMs now. Much better than my earlier experience with ICS.

Other feedback that is not about bugs:

The stock launcher this ROM comes with is, in my opinion, not a good choice. the previous choice of Zeam was better or even the stock ICS launcher.

Not too bothered about this personally as I like Go Launcher.

The stock DPI setting is too small and makes some things hard to press. IMO stick with Samsung's choice of 240, it seems to work well for most people and apps.

Have a good day, your work is appreciated :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] slaphead20:

I am experiencing issues with GPS too. Sometimes my phone will fix on the Sats but other times it just continually hangs in 'Searching for GPS'. When it does fix it can also be unstable. I was on the golf course the other day and whilst standing completely still, the distance from the green slowly changed by 50 yards!

Whilst using Navigation, the phone will also regularly tell me that it has lost the GPS Signal.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jonni50:
hello,

first fo all the Slim 3.8 it works very well, BUT i had until today 45 Hours Up Time when i wanted to check my phone the screen it was black, even if i pressed the power the home button nothing only way to bring back to life it was to pull out the battery and put it back.

do any of you had this probelm if yes how can we solve it

thank you in advance.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] azsamsancho:
I have had the same problem with Slim 3.7. basically the phone is running fine, but the screen cannot come on/wake up. So I had to hold the power button for 10 sec to reboot the phone. Not sure why this happens, I want to know too.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] artyfarty:
me too. same problem with screen.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jonni50:
lack screen

and i would like to mention this problem persist from the erlierversions i had also this problem with 3.4, also

i would like to use this rom because it is very googd rom , my sgs as fast as never. :)

please find some solution for it i don't want to go back to Gingerbread :(

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] caper:
I had this problem with GB, never with SlimICS ;)

What i have now is some random reboots when i use semaphore kernel, i´m with stock kernel to understand if the problem is from semaphore or not

jmcdpereira
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] slaphead20:
LMK settings change on semaphore are known to cause problems, not sure if this is case on stock though
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Weedalot:
It's ram related issue with sgs. with the right kernel and low mem killer set to 90+ should work without a flaw, however as we all know **** happens.

Model:GT I9000

Rom: ICS slim 3.8

Kernel: Devil 2 0.92 CMC

Swap: on (1024 mb)

Theme: Freehand CirclesMod ICS Blue 5
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] azsamsancho:
If you are referring to the Minfree Taskkiller... mine is set to 50. I guess this is the default since i have not touched this setting before. My Min CPU is set at 200 (also untouched) but should I lower min CPU to 100 -- maybe that is the problem?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] artyfarty:
i think 100MHz is not working with stock ICS
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dastinger:
Did you have Deep Idle enabled?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jonni50:
hy thank for all of you for the answers

but i did not anything else i just installed the Slim as it was described.

i use the stock kernel, the free memory know is the default value 50MB free

may i set something to work ??
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] caper:
Where can i see that ?

Cannot find it.

With semaphore... i dont remenber... maybe...

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] slaphead20:
How much charge was left in your battery? Just strikes me that after that long on one charge it might be that it turned off and pulling the battery might of just kick started it enough to fire up briefly again
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dastinger:
On Semaphore you may find it in the Semaphore app. With the stock kernel, probably NS Tools.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jonni50:
hello, it was on 72% , it is strange because until today when i had this problem

i had an up time 45 hours and it was working fine....
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] slaphead20:
Lol...I thought you meant 45 hours on one charge! Might just be a random SOD. I generally reboot once a day anyway, it's not really an issue unless it keeps happening
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jonni50:
ok thank you for your help, i will let you know if still will persist this problem, :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] NightmareCC:

Hi, I've just updated to the new Slim ICS 3.8 (with wipe data, cache, dalvik cache before) and everything's working fine and dandy, except for the battery charging animation when the phone is off. I've downloaded the charging animation zip with update me, but it's still not working. Am I supposed to do anything else than simply download the addon?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] caper:
The problem is not the kernel, the soft reboot persist :(

The problem must be the no wipe install since slim 3.4...

Friday ou saturday i will flash the SlimICS 3.9 with wipe :D

jmcdpereira
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dastinger:
Yes, you should flash it in CWM.

I had lots of soft reboots with Sema when I had deep idle on. That's why I talked about deep idle. If that's not it, then it might be the lack of a Wipe. I warned you :p

No problem my friend. Anyway, I think it's really confusing (where it works and where not)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ZioGTS:
That's acknowledged by Stratosk, Semaphore's developer. I never had issues with LMK when setting them through ASS, though. I'm running with 75MB LMK set on ASS since weeks, with no issues at all. Didn't try setting LMK through Semaphore app since I read about possible bootloops... but who cares anyway? :D With 120+MB free pretty much always on Slim+Semaphore "s" version, I feel LMK is becoming a useless legacy from the past... :cool:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] slaphead20:
Totally agree there, haven't messed with that stuff since cm7, same with overclocking, just no need anymore

One thing I've noticed lately is I normally have my phone on vibrate silent mode, but today I saw Jamie Cullum and put it to silent mute via holding down power button. By the time I received a text in a couple of minutes, it was back to vibrate. I changed it back, same happened.

Reminded me, I think it has happened before. But I thought nothing of it. Anyone else confirm this? If it helps, I have gosms as my messaging app.

Samsung are making the next nexus, tough choice! Although I thought Google bought the half of Motorola that makes phones? Mainly for patents though, hopefully of some use.

S3 rom probably that big with s-voice data, maybe?

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dastinger:
I noticed something like that on 3.8 but wasn't sure if it was Profile Scheduler acting up. If it happens again I'll make sure I write about it here.

About the Nexus.. there are rumours saying that Google will launch one Nexus per brand in November. So, if that turns out to be true, we should wait for, like, 5 Nexus devices. That's what I was talking about.

Of corse, I didn't even think about that :o Nexus are always the first phones to get the updates, AOSP is amazingly fast and beautiful/easy on the eyes, usually the phones are really cool as well regarding design and then we make sure we buy a phone that's not full of bloat and horrible launchers. Plus, the Nexus' community is usually great. It's only a tough choice because I know what SGS3 will be like but I don't know what to expect from the new Nexus. Anyway, even if I wait up and end up buying S3, I'll spare some money :)

Please read the changelog or run a search of forum next time rather than bloating it with questions that are already addressed.

Nop, I had already checked that and there is no .nomedia file there. The ringtones i was missing are the one included in the ROM, not custom ones. For a reason I ignore, they are back now :confused:

Maybe I would understand it better if someone could explain me how this works on ICS. On Gingerbread the media scanner ran everytime I moved a file, which was annoying but at least the update was instant. Now I guess I have to reboot the phone everytime I move a media or..?

Thanks in advance

media scanner

Hey krarvind, nice to test your awesome rom :)

Beer will follow soon after I figure out everything with that ICS thing lol :p

I'll also try to be present on this topic, your project is interesting.

-------back on subject-------

Thanks for the reboot tip. After some reading I understand how the media scanner process is triggered on ICS. It's sad to read we systematically need to reboot on such a modern OS, when the apps we use could simply interact better with the android.process.media !

There is an elegant solution for whoever plays around with media and wishes to use the Gallery app and default file explorer. It's called Rescan Media (free app on Play Store)

Does someone know a good file explorer that makes correct use of the media scanner? (ie. triggers a scan when a media file is moved or created)

--------------

Yeah that's really sweet! I used it on CodeNameDroid ROM and had to spend 0,79 bucks on AudioManagerPro when I came back to GB :D

The next big thing I'm waiting for is the editable delay for screen rotation, default one is soooo long.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] All Day On XDA:
3.8 is really excellent Krarvind.

I love the Lightning Launcher - I think it's much better than Zeam.

I use it in conjunction with Folder Organiser so everything is organised perfectly and looks exactly as I want.

The Black Exodus theme looks great combined with inverted gapps.

I've installed the Devil kernel 0.94 and enabled the swap partition so multitasking is buttery smooth and all my apps open much faster (especially phone.apk)

I need to give it a bit more time to judge the battery life, but when idle there is barely any drain.

Do you have any ideas on how to reduce battery consumption when the phone is in use?

I've read somewhere that undervolting doesn't really make much difference. Of course I could remove any overclocks, but I don't think underclocking makes a significant difference either since the CPU would be busy longer...

Just wondering really....

Great job man.

PS. Dont care about the central clock setting anymore as I've hidden the status bar.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] krarvind:
@idle, mine hardly drains. I don't OC/UV. all stock values, check for any background sync thats draining. Use betterbattery stats or something like that to monitor for wakelocks etc.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] All Day On XDA:
That's what I said. At idle theres barely any drain at all.

So wakelocks are not a problem for me. Which is great.

The problem is more when I am actually doing a task on the phone, I find the battery usage quite high.

This is despite having low brightness and lots of black on the screen.

It's probably just an ICS thing.

PS: Actually maybe I just need to get a new battery
