Auto brightness problem

Hey guys, I would really appreciate your help on something.

I just installed slim ics 4.2 I'm very happy with it except for one bug I found.

When using auto brightness and in a dark place so the brightness slider is right down low the screen goes weird, it has a green hue and looses saturation and contrast. I tested this by turning off auto brightness and using the slider, when it's all the way down the screen goes weird and as soon as it's off the minimum it's fine again.

Does anyone else have this issue?

Thanks in advance for your help or feedback :)

hey guys ,

I am facing some issues with media server battery usage. Usually it is not very huge it remain at normal values like 6 to 7 %.

But whenever i play any game its consumption increases massively . For eg. if i play angry bird and it takes around 20 % of my battery then media server will be consuming 25 to 30 % of battery at that time . Is it normal or is it just me who is facing such problem.:confused:

I have tried every thing even fresh install after wipe but the problem remain same. :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] alecxr:
I have a problem with SlimRom, when I try to install bigger .apk files, like Songifiy(10MB) and AutoRap(23mb), it just says "installing" but it doesn't finish the install... I let it 30 minutes and it still hasn't finished. How to solve this?

Hello! I have been on GB for a pretty long time and at last I am tempted to shift to ICS and this looks like everyones fav. Just one small question... As I use radio a lot (not internet radio but direct radio), I heard that radio isnt working with ICS... Is that still the case or is there a way out? Is is the only thing that has been stopping me to shift for a pretty long time...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] coroner21:
There is no such thing as a stock radio app but from my experience SpiritFM works pretty good. It is quite expensive though. Comparing GB and ICS I would say that it's worth it, assuming FM radio is absolutely necessary.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] simplymonis:
Please someone report about the media server in battery state after playing any games.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] slaphead20:
Try clearing media storage data and a reboot
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] go4saket:
As I am planning to shift to SlimICS for the first time, I had been reading a little and I am confused weather I should go with the Devil kernal or Semaphore or for that matter, with some other better kernal. Can someone please help me with this?

As I find the colors of SGS a little on the greenish side on GB, I had always been using Voodoo Color to neutralise the colors. If the color tones are the same on ICS, I would prefer a kernal with Voodoo Colors.

Has Go sms problem with led backlight with this rom? I tested NSTools and BLN Control Pro but still backlight dosent work.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] alexovy:
I use spirit fm
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] simplymonis:
That was the first step i took.

Even after full wipe still facing the same issue.

Media server buttery drain accrue only when i play any video or games otherwise it remain low.

i have a wierd problem with slimics. out of nowhere my toggles are gone in my notification bar. is there any solution? ive tried clearing settings and ass' data but it didnt help.

i go into ass settings and it shows the toggles that i want ticked but they arent there in the notification bar. i tried ticking, unticking, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache. none helped
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] glepusic:
maybe you clicked the icon for hidding the toggles ? those 3 stripes on the noticication bar just under the clock in the top left corner
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] go4saket:
A little help with installation please. I am presently on Gingerbread.XXJW5 with GamerzROM and Semaphore 2.7.4bm kernal. Now if I want to clean install ICS, what is the exact procedure I should follow. In the installation instruction it is given that I need to flash CM Nightly or ICS Kernal. I wasnt very clear with that. As I already have CWM, cant I directly go there, wipe date/cache etc and flash this ROM from SDCard?

Moreover, when I went to the download page, there are various files like "Base 3.1.zip", and "3.1 I9000 Essentials.zip". Which files do I need to flash and in which order?

Please help.

Thank you.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ~ Myzrael ~:
Cmon, this question has been answered so many times, and instructions are very easy. Wipe all, flash base, flash essential for your model. If u loose imei flash a modem for your country. If during base flash u got bootloop, pull battery, enter recovery and repeat the procedure.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Weetbix:
It does for me, but I am not using the stock kernel, I'm using semaphore 1.3.0s.

From memory lack of bln was the main (only?) reason I changed kernel...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] scuba156:
Awesome news! I'm currently running stock because it is seriously so smooth, and there hasn't been a good enough Rom to entice me to flash anything else. I'll definitely be an early adopter of slim beans though

adb pushed from my nexus 7
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] JuggerRUS:
I have similar issue. As I suppose that's because screen is not getting sufficient power to be working normally. Have you changed default color/brightness settings?

I'm getting this issue when I set too low settings in advanced brightness settings. It can occur on every rom.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Matt5606:
Awesome Rom, definitely one of the best. Keep up the great work! :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Obagleyfreer:
Thank you for your help :)

I'll check out the advanced brightness settings and see what happens!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Vallerino WR:
hey I know for sure that you have been disturbed many times for this but ever you support the 9001?

I hope you will forgive me for my insistence
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] go4saket:
Hello! I installed this ROM in the following manner:

1. Flashed Gingerbread XWJW5

2. Flashed Semaphore 2.7.4bm for GB to get CWM

3. Flashed Slim I9000_4.2.zip

4. Flashed Slim_Common.zip

SlimICS started normally but there was no mobile network at all. Did I do something wrong or is there some other way to get the network back?

Please help.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] moosehead11:
You may need to flash a modem or first check your imei number is valid...if it isn't copy the copy of your esf folder back

Hi,

SlimIcs 4.2 will be your last ICS 4.0.4 release?

I'm asking because the new [4.1.1]Slim Bean (I9000).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] go4saket:
I tried to flash two three different modems but I still cant register to any network. Now my cell is able to search the available networks but isnt able to register in any of them. What is wrong now?

As for imei number, I checked the number mentioned on the sticker of my cell and it differs from the one shown on the screen. Does that make a difference and if yes, how can I get my original number back as I havent taken any backup of the same?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] habylab:
This is still my go to safe and stable ROM. Going to try Helly Bean soon, but this is my backup.

Sent from my beautiful Galaxy S running Slim ICS with Devil IDLE2 kernel.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] johnsin5393:
may i know slim ics v4.2 base on aokp or cm9?is there happen /datadata partition storage out of space in this rom? cuz i wish to install more apps.

lastly, which kernel use better on slim ics; devil or semaphore kernel? thank you
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jagadeesh16:
Go back to the Stock ROM and u'll get your IMEI back- backup efs folder, then try a CM9 flash, boot your phone, check the imei, flash slim and if no signal, u might need to reflash modem after an efs restore.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] go4saket:
Thanks dude... Your process worked perfectly...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ballsofsteel:
Slim ICS 4.2 is a full fledged ROM anyway, there aren't any major bugs to fix, no more features to add and speed is amongst the best (if not the best) for SGS roms. It should serve you well until Slim bean reaches a stable state :p

Btw Krav, can you also please develop Slim Bean for the new IPad alongside the N7? Cheers bro.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Andii S.:

As of now SlimICS 4.2 is the last iteration.

Slim is built from source with cherry picked features from both CyanogenMod and AOKP. Slim ICS does have a /datadata partition

Everything was running fine on 4.2 suddenly lighting launcher FC continuously. Tried dirty flashing of same 4.2 and common apps over it, tried fix permission from recovery still launcher force close. Any ideas what to do next?

Edit:- Was not able to find solution. Installed Another launcher(Nova) application and that works.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] go4saket:
I installed this ROM and then flashed Semaphore 1.3.0s. As soon as I flashed the kernel, it automatically disabled NSTools and enabled BLN. I have BLN Pro installed but the problem is that I donot get a LED notification for SMS and whatsapp. It gives LED notification for missed calls and emails only. Is there a way to get the same for sms and whatsapp and if not, is it possible to do it with NSTools?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jonni50:
Hy who has a problem with the pc when it doesn't recognize the phone, you should try to take out the battery wait a few seconds and then put it back and will work I had the same problem with my old phone i9000 and it was worked after....

Hello!

I just installed this ROM on my SGS and then flashed the Semaphore kernel. Everything is working fine except Spirit FM Unlocked. As I am from India, I had set the regional band to India but I also tried North America and tried all Audio Method but I couldnt manage to get any sound.

Can someone please tell me what can I do to get it working?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] HiKsFiles:
Go to Semaphore control app and make sure the "Radio FM" module is loaded by ticking the check box next to it. ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] senotrius:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Rebel2k:
For a few days I experience a strange issue: after several days of uptime I start to see many many zombie threads in my phone's memory (random process, sometimes "Settings.UI", sometimes "VpnDialog", sometimes "BackupTransport"...

What could it be due to? By the way I can't even kill them... Is there a way to know which processes is creating so many zombies processes and why?

Edit: the more days are passing the more zombie processes are running in memory. The only way to fix is a reboot but a couple of hours later that starts again ! :(

hey guys,

cant seem to fix the data low problem. Tried using the data fix app from the play It shows that memory has been freed up from data data but I still get the same error. Tried using the app when the error appears and even before when the error has not appeared for a single time. still the same. running slim 4.2 currently

Any help appreciated.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] slaphead20:
try using cache cleaner ng in conjunction with disk usage to identify the large caches and clean them
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kb87:
Thanks will give it a go. But I tried cleaning the cache with App2SD app. That didnt help either :confused:

EDIT: Also can you tell me if all the movable apps are moved to SD card - will that help. Plus will doing that cause a problem with using titanium backup?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] seeraj15:

Hi!

Everytime I get a incoming call my phone crashes and I cant answer the call.. The worst thing is that I even cant see whose calling :eek:

Can the problem be cuz of any problem I got when I installed the kernel or ROM? Does anyone know what I can do to maby fix this problem?!?!

Thanks!

I've just installed the ROM but when I use the window and transition animations through the spare parts app they seem sluggish and laggy even on the fast setting. This is the only ROM I've tried with this problem

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] steje:
Now, I have 4.2 for week´s an this ist for me the end of flashing.

Everything what I need works fine. Stable Phone and good Accu.

I believe I stay on 4.2....!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] go4saket:
Installed this ROM 3 days back and its really smooth. I small problem...

If I switch off my phone or if it gets automatically switched off because of drained battery, even when I connect it to the charger in switch off mode, it doesnt show the charging animation. It just shows a blank battery symbol for a few seconds and then that also goes away. After that even if I press a switch, there is no display. For this reason I am not able to know if the battery is fully charged or not. Moreover, if I try to switch on the phone in that stage, it doesnt start till the time I dont disconnect it from the charging point.

How can I rectify this or is this a known bug?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] alexovy:
hehe...just wait for the Slim Bean to be complete :)

damn boot loop

Hi all, I was running on Slim ICS 4.1 on my i9000 for a while when this morning I decided to upgrade to Slim JB 2.0.

did a data wipe/system format as written in the upgrade instructions (well maybe I could have gone for a simple wipe, but that's it).

Right after I've tried to install the first zip (i9000.zip) the semaphore boot logo appeared and decided to stay there for a very long time (say more than 10 minutes) with no indication of activity at all. Decided to force the reboot, and now I'm stuck in a boot loop. Damnit.

What is the best solution to this problem?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] senotrius:
relax.this happened to me.all u had to do was get into recovery and reflash slim jb from semaphore recovery.do factory reset and the usual.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] IlPeach:
thank senotrius for your reply.

I've tried the three button combo to get into recovery but it starts doing the boot loop again. I have to pull out the battery to make it stop. The download mode works fine.

---------- Post added at 10:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:10 AM ----------

ok I've just managed to access CWM recovery and this happened after I've decided to pull out my external sd card.

This happened to me before and I wasn't sure it was because of the SD card.

Is anyone aware of any problems like this?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] slaphead20:

I just wanted to give a big thanks to the devs for this ROM....

this is by far, the smoothest ICS rom i've ever tested on a single-core processor phone ...

i wish this ROM exists for my other phones (HTC Vision, SE sk17i) ... cuz there's nothing that can compare to the performance of the "slim"

patiently waiting for slim bean to be more stable.. .then here i come 4.1.1 :fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] slaphead20:
if you loose recovery grab the semaphore .tar version and flash in Odin as pda and bingo, recovery back :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] IlPeach:
wut! that's not nice and I didn't know about it until now.

Do you have a link or something? Can't find anything where on the forums :(

---------- Post added at 04:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:53 PM ----------

I thought so, but I've fixed it by removing the external SD from the slot and forcing a clean reboot. As it turns out it was an old problem someone has already experienced.

I installed this ROM 3-4 days back with Semaphore kernel. Since then my battery is running out very fast. Just to check I calibrated my battery, ran it for a full cycle and then recharged it again to 100% and after that used my cell hardly. Below is the screenshot of my Battery usage. Please note that my Edge was on all the time.

Usually my battery used to last much more than this and the main battery consumption was because of Screen and voice calls. This is for the first time that Android OS is consuming the major part of battery. Is there some thing wrong?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] slaphead20:
yes, get better battery stats from play and use it to find out what is causing the wakelocks, it is a rogue process or app,, otherwise try a clean install from gb

@ krarvind: just switched back to SlimICS, for the moment, because I need to rely on GPS and in SlimBean is not functioning 100%.

Let me tell you, the SlimICS feels so 'complete' compared to SlimBean. Since I moved to SlimBean, I forgot how good SlimICS is. Although I really like how the SlimBean is moving, it is still behind SlimICS. This is a MASTERPIECE. Everything is in the right place in the menus, everything is working like is suppose to work, right after installation.

I just hope, in the nearest future, SlimBean will get at least as close to perfect as SlimICS.

Congratulations and THANK YOU Krarvind for SlimICS!
