does SlimICS support fast dormancy, or ICS in general? And if yes, is it a rom or kernel side feature (well it must have something to do with RIL :rolleyes: )?

I'm asking this since here I can save little battery by disabling it since it isn't functioning properly.

I have tried to disable it via build.prop, but I can't be sure if it makes anything :rolleyes:

This was the case while using gingerbread roms, but I haven't seen any info about it regarding ICS roms. :confused:

Feel free to rant me if this was a very stupid question, that's the mint of this thread :D

Hi, a week ago I was expiriencing random "beep's" during a call which dropped my call (incoming and outgoing), it also happened when I tried making a call, before it would ring. I had restarted the phone, cleared cache and dalvik and now I made a successfull 18 minute call. In the future if this beep's happen again, how should I approach to solve it? Different modem? I am on 4.1 where I did a full wipe when upgrading to 4.0. Does kernel choice matter in my case, or is it network coverage fault or modem's fault?

Snarl.....rant....shred :p:D I seem to remember seeing that build prop ed in dark_knight_85s thread he posted about build props, so if you can find a post by him use it to access his profile and you should be able to find it under his posts, aren't I lovely?! :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] slaphead20:
If I can....why can't you? Not asking that much is it?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] slaphead20:
I was going to curse you till I checked the link :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] slaphead20:
There was a problem with the phone.apk a couple of releases back if I remember right, may possibly be linked to that, but I'm not certain about that, and it seems you have solved it so all good atm :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] scuba156:
i didn't realize there was a 'curse you' button on xda :p

The point is, he could of already had the fonts hours ago, instead of waiting for someone else to find them for him.

Hey guys, i know this question is annoying but i have to ask it again...

First, i'm using slimics 4.2 with semaphore 1.2.6 kernel...

I have a low storage notification because my datadata folder has only 15mb free space left... i used the search function but its getting confusing because it seems that there are more than one fixes and it seems that slimics does need some extra fixes because of some linking errors with busybox... so what do i have to do to fix this properly?!

it would be very nice if someone could someone a step to step advise.

mabye the steps should be edited in a post at the beginning so everyone can see the correct steps without have the risk to **** something up :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] slaphead20:
Don't I know it, that was my point also, but I think it got lost in translation by him! Seems we are also having an outbreak of the "no thanks button" virus too! :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Rahlp:
hey people I installed SlimICS few hours back, everything is fine as of now.

But the only thing is I cannot install apps directly from playstore browsing through pc. When I install apps from web directly it does not get installed. But it gets installed from phone playstore.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dark_knight35:
Even it's a randomly chosen and senseless number, it's 35 and not 85. I'm not good in finding names, my SC2 name gopU was already away, so I just called myself dark_knight35. This name is as creative as wearing a cowboy costume on carnival.

But to come to the actual topic, fast dormancy can always be enabled, as long as your carrier supports it. I've read somewhere that it enables itself on some carriers. Now you have a post to view my profile ;).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Magnumutz:
Hello everybody, i've installed Slim ICS yesterday with semaphore 1.2.6s.

Everything is fine and smooth, but i can't seem to change the governor to anything but performance and ondemand.

Is this kernel related or what?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] slaphead20:
Oooops....my knackered eyes at fault there! Lol
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] scuba156:
this was talked about a few pages back, with step by step instructions too :)

When is the "no thanks virus" not being spread through xda? Too much hand holding has spread the virus :p
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] scuba156:
Governor is kernel related, and it can be changed within the semaphore app.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Magnumutz:
Lol, you're right... last time i was on SGS, semaphore didn't have it's own app :D

Thanks!

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] slaphead20:
Ok, I have a problem....gtalk sitting in system apps, won't show in app drawer, or market, tried everything to get it installed properly, tried older versions, tried inverted version, cleared launcher data, fixed permissions tried every damn thing I can think of, and yes I know there are other apps, but the fonts are tiny, wondering if this is something to do with the updated store... Yes I've searched, done the bloody lot! Any ideas anyone?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Higadeb:
Hmm, it shows up fine for me. Which launcher are you using? I know it's not really a fix, but could you create a shortcut widget to Gtalk with the Gtalk icon?

The only other thing I can think of is that perhaps you're looking for the wrong thing? As in my Gtalk just comes up as "talk" on app draw. (hope that doesn't sound patronising, just can't think of anything else!) :confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] slaphead20:
That I was aware of, :p thing is when I delete it and then try and instal it with package installer it won't instal so it's like the app is in system/apps but not actually installed, doesn't even show in settings/apps.....truly baffled by this :confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] scuba156:
which media process is actually running? try clearing media storage cache and reboot

tried flashing the latest gapps? If that fails then try pushing it to /system/app/, change permissions and reboot. Also check /data/app to see if there may be a corrupted version in there.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mnazim:
Try setting permissions from CWM and wipe cache and reboot...!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] slaphead20:
Tried that, no joy
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] slaphead20:
Done that, totally stumped by this, it doesn't even show in market for me, totally weird!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Higadeb:
That's really odd! Do you have a TB backup of it at all or anything? Perhaps try deleting it, rebooting & restoring from the backup (app only)? The only other thing I can think of is creating a .zip with it in and install it via cwm?

Edit: actually that last part would do nothing as it's already in the slim_common that we all use. Ok I'm stumped too :P
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] slaphead20:
Yeah, the titanium backup won't instal either, done 2x fresh instal all the way from gb, the only thing I can think is that somewhere there is a corrupt file lurking deep in the os, going to try with sd maid now and see if there are any corrupt duplicates or corpses lurking!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Higadeb:
Just for a point of interest, whenever I change ROM(/whenever I do a factory reset) I like to format the phone's internal SD (through the PC). I really have no idea if this does anything, but I find it helps keep things organised between clean flashes. Perhaps that might be worth a shot (obviously make a backup of it all first on your PC).

I know it's a really wild long shot, but it's the only possible difference I can think of between your flashing & mine...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jkd:
Hello, tranks for this rom that i just installed.

How can i install apps by default into the external SD card ?

Hi

I found some problem, when i try programming in eclipse Logcat doesn't work (Unable to open log device '/dev/log/main': No such file or directory) and after that i try to search solution for solve this problem and found some information e.g use adb shell for enable Logcat but it don't work same (/system/bin/sh: logcat-enable: not found).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mnazim:
I suppose Google is making some changes to the talk app and overall due to their spring cleaning pgm... Maybe that's why its not showing up in play...!!!

ps: its not showing up in play for me either
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] scuba156:
You have done a fresh install from gb and the issue still exists? It shouldn't, works perfectly fine here. Make sure you format /system. I can't think of anything else

Is gtalk even usually on the android market? I know it wasn't on there not long ago...

Still, that wouldn't stop one from installing it manually. Might need to check logcat

where is file's download for i9000? also my current firmware 2.3.6 GB.. how i can goto this rom? what need for transfer to this rom
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mnazim:
better go here.. download i9000 zip and the common zip and go about flashing... read the instructions on slimroms.com
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] nieohl:
well.. im having a problem with slim 4.2, most applications stops..

i wast just instagram'ing but then soon when i open the app again, instagram stops.. couldn't open it, and then i clicked Report. the play store stops, then facebook stops, SU stops. what should i do?

is that because my /datadata has low free memory? earlier i checked it and it was 10mb free memory.. now it's just 8kb free.. most applications are having an error now. D:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] moh3en:
thank you
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] slaphead20:
Almost certainly with that little free space, time to dump some apps! And use data data fix or have a clear out using disk usage
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] nieohl:
just 200mb capacity of /datadata would be great. :/

cleared a cache and uninstalled QQLauncher lol. "I REALLY LOVE THE BLUE galaxy like WALLPAPER." no im gonna try looking for a wallpaper for that.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Kurre:
that isn't physically possible I'm afraid :( but there are alternatives if you're ready to accept slight performance drop (might not be so big drop after all) :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] nieohl:
hey, do you have any idea how can i get a copy of that wallpaper of QQLauncher. i installed it again.. but couldn't find it in gallery, sdcard/Android/data, /datadata and even in sdcard/Tencent/

hmm.. how?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] moh3en:
i click on Device_i9000.zip and then my phone reboot and turn on off and stop on #G 4.0.3 why?

i again flash my old 2.3.6 how flash 4.0.4 for 2.3.6 GB ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] slaphead20:
Have you followed the installation instructions properly? Did you flash a nightly, then wipe and format system then flash i9000 zip then common?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] moh3en:
yes. is maybe for bad download?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] slaphead20:
It may be, try downloading both files again and retry
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dastinger:
No wipe/format needed coming from CM9, Slappy. That is needed before flashing CM9.

Basically format /system and Factory Reset, flash latest CM9 Nightly, reboot to Recovery and flash Base and Slim Common. Done :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] moh3en:
maybe have problem. i try for second time copy to sdcard on install from a zip file..

and same error? how i can check the file for error?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dastinger:
Check my last post. Follow what I said. Report back.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] slaphead20:
Whoops, my bad, thanks for the correction :o
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] moh3en:
i tried for factory reset:

Wiping data....

Formating /data...

E: format_volume : rfs format failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p2

Deleteing meta data

Data wipe failed

what's it?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Kurre:
CM9 has .nodatadata feature (can't remember details now) and there are couple of scripts that move data from /datadata (partition in the fast 170MB chip) to /data/data (in the slower and higher internal memory chip) and makes needed symlinks for apps to able to access this data. Newest one is Wendigogo's script. His thread is in the dev section.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Kurre:
Heh thanks guys, you're best and very lovely..both of you :D

dark_knight35 seems to have different build.prop line for fast dormancy (I tried ro.ril.fast.dormancy.rule=0 to disable it, I googled it). But I'll try them out and try to find out some difference in battery drain. Our gsm operators doesn't seem to handle fast dormancy very well..at least when I had GB rom..But maybe they have evolved from that time..maybe..there's a hope :p

Coming from Slim ICS 2.6:

-Reboot into recovery

-Backup data

-Factory reset

-Wipe cache/partition

-Install Slim ICS 2.7 Base & Essential

-Restore data

-Flash Devil Kernel BFS 1.1 Bln no vc

-Wipe dalvik cache

Everything works great, wifi, 3g, camera etc...

I love ROM Control :)

Many Thanks krarvind !

i try flash other modem..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Nit3m4re:
Updated from 2.5 (Didn't see anything wrong with it to go to 2.6)

No problems what so ever, installed the i9000 files, google add ons, Semaphore 0.9.0 and the phone is flying. So far no WiFi issues, flashed JVO modem after doing a clean install from GB when installing 2.5 for those that might want to try that.

Genuinely can't emphasise just how good this rom is to people who are a bit sketchy. There literally seems to be no bugs and the rom is incredibly fast. It absolutely blows onecosmics and CM9 out of the water in every single way.

If I actually had money right now I would donate but right now I am the definition of broke lol :(

Cheers Krarvind
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] krarvind:

but i have one strange problem with my wi-fi:(

the toggle to turn it on and off (in settings and in notification area as well). So i cannot use wi-fi. Tried everything. Have it on other ROM's too, but only ICS roms. Please, can someone help me with this strange problem. I want to use ICS so bad guys. Hope someone can fix my issue!

Great update Kravind!

Hey Kravind,

Just wanted to say I couldn't help myself after seeing 2.7 was up and flashed it earlier. So far it has been perfect. Did a completely clean install and it is blazing fast so far with no OC or anything at all! Think I may try Nova Launcher as they have released 1.0 yesterday and it was working really fast as well. I'll let you know if any bugs pop up.

Just noticed you are in NS as well, where at? I'm in Lakelands, pretty much directly between Sackville and Windsor. Must be the Nova Scotian making this ROM so epic ha ha! :cool:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] krarvind:

For BusterSG and few others who has wifi toggle. pls try pushing this to system/bin, set permissions, reboot.

glad you are liking it. i am from the other side of town ( beechville, timberlea area). have fun with the ROM,
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] philipas:
So, you started with 2.5? Did you factory reset, wipe dalvik and format system before flashing 2.7, or do you do a non-wipe flash?

2.5 works for me but I really want 2.7 for toggles, customisations and the ASS! :-)

I can't say much about build.prop. I wanted to look how it gets activated but couldn't find anything useful, so I just collected the tweaks I found. There sometimes seem to be two parameters that do the same. Just hope it works :).

No need any wipe/factory reset before flashing CM9 nightly from GB.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] saszseb:
You didn't flash Slim_common, do you?

I did a test again 1 hour ago:

- flashed JW6+ Semaphore_2.7.4 via Heimdall. All partition were ext4.

- restore my data via TB.

then how to installed Slim_4.2:

- go recovery

- flash CM9 nightly

- your phone will boot up automatically.

- go recovery

- flash I9000.zip and Slim_Common.zip.

- reboot

- I'm not an intuitive user.

- pls. don't make any comment, if you hadn't tried it before.

- I've tried this method 5 times last two weeks and worked always.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dastinger:
Enough with that, please! Krarvind (the rom's dev if you don't know) specifically wrote on the instructions that a wipe is needed so, who are you to say it isn't? FFS!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dastinger:
Had that once on AOKP M4. I don't know if there's another way to solve it but I tried everything I could think of and only a Factory Reset plus a reflash solved the issue.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dark_knight35:
As the partition layout changes by flashing ICS over GB, everything gets wiped and doing this manually isn't needed anymore.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hydroboy:
Slim uses CM9 partitioning. Because Slim is so small you should have some space on system. Use TB to see what apps you have using a lot of data and try installing them as system apps to free up space on datadata.

For example, I move Adobe Flash Player, Google Earth, etc etc until my system partition is nearly full.

I guess if Slim did its own partitioning with a smaller system partition then datadata could be larger than 170MB...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dastinger:
Then my bad saying it is needed. It's not me I'm concerned about but the newbies here trying to flash the ROM. I just try to direct them to the instructions krarvind wrote on the website and it says to wipe. Then someone comes here and says that wipe isn't needed and, before we notice, we have lots of ways to flash the rom with each user saying something different.

If the wipes are done automatically, good, but wiping manually doesn't hurt.

Thanks for the heads up on that.
