you guys are right. I also just looked at the change log and the only change is a kernel built from source which makes it pointless to post a new build until we get our kernel worked out. Soon though guys. :D

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] matt_b:
nightly 3-18 does not have a kernel built from source.

I'm sure one ktoonsez and entropy get a kernel built, we will all know it. the information about the ensuing build will certainly mention when/if the button/video camera/screen flicker issues are fixed.

like mentioned a few posts ago, patience.

Should I just give up on patching there kernel then and get back to source then since it doesnt seem worth it? This kernel build of theres is killing me!!! By the way no problems went away. Still no usb.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SeanHacker:
I would go directly to source bro. Or... just wait for good old entropy. Like I've always maintained. He does awesome kernel work and works pretty fast depending on his schedul:D

Thanks' for the info. BTW, is it only me, but the data speeds are sooooooo slow, so slow I can't even connect to play store, I get connection timed out. Pretty much no internet browser works because of being so slow, nor twitter. I went back to 2.3.6 and data speed are flying! Around 1 mb. What could be the reason?

Hi! My name is Andy and I'm a CM flash-aholic. I have flashed my phone atleast 3 times today. Between the CM9 and the twiceweekly CM7 updates, I just can't stop. I need help :).

But seriously, many thanks to you as well the Devs out there dedicating your time to make these ROMs so great. I too am a dad (of 2 boys, 5 & 3) so I know how presious your time is. Thanks again

Thanks' for the reply, I dunno know what to tell you. In my country 3g speeds tops about 1mb, most of the time is around 750 kbps, wich is fine by me. When I tried to test the speed, with speed test it says that connection timed out, twitter said internal server error, pretty much the only thing that works is whatsapp. I've tried in several places, same thing, the symbols says 3G all the time, but I believe that is pretty much edge or gprs speeds, at home, I got 3g all the time, so for fact I know that should be much faster. To test my point, I went back to GB and boom!, speed is the way it should be. Any ideas?

BTW, is the GPS fixed in the 03-18 nightly, or do I need to flash it again?

Thank you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SeanHacker:
gps has been fixed since a long time ago. no issues at all with it. you should probably try out some different modems.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SeanHacker:
lol. i should hopefully be down in LA in about 3 weeks to visit my big brother. but i don't drink anymore due to me ending up in prison for 4 years for a DUI in my early twenties. i just turned 30. YAY! i was the 3rd person to be tried under the new zero tolerance laws in Oregon, so i got the book thrown at me. funny part is, is that shortly after my release they changed the laws back because they figured out that they were sending too many "good guys" like me away and clogging up the prison system. i'm lucky!!!! :D

4 years prison time=no more drinking for me!!! i love my daughter too much. :D

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SeanHacker:
ive included the GPS fix since the beginning of the month bro. so yes its already included. you can flash it again if you want to but i won't change anything considering its already included. as for the speedtest.net app... that app is total junk. you need to check your speeds through your browser by going to speakeasy.net/speedtest/ . make sure your apns are set correctly for your carrier also. :D

Thank you for your reply. I just flashed the latest nightly and speed is rocking!! I can't tell you what happened... Can't wait for the kernel sources to be implemented. This ICS version seems to be much nicer looking than the one that Samsung released for the S2 last week.

gotta make friends in there somehow. lmao! nope. got bored and colored them in on the picture. too much cell time.

but anyways. back to this thread. i had a ***** of a time reworking this kernel last night. no progress at all so far other then a few soft bricks. i think my 15 hour days at work are killing me lately.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] f100cleveland:
I can't even get nightlie 3/19 or the 3/20 AOKP to boot with our hacked kernel. Something must've changed that doesn't allow our kernel to boot. I dont even get the boot animation, just goes dark. But if I flash the rom and not the kernel, it boots right up. Hopefully Entropy or ktoonsez can get it hammered out soon.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SeanHacker:
why would you flash either of those. there are no changes from 3-18 except for the kernel (I9100) thats built from source. you gotta read changelogs bro.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ktoonsez:
I have had no luck making the sound hack in the kernle in 3/19 either. It is really bizarre! Has anyone tried to use the kernel we have been using in previous builds just to see if it works?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] f100cleveland:
Actually, the 2nd 3/20 AOKP update has a lot of changes. I tried flashing that, then tried the 3/19 just to see if it was a bad download.

I religiously watch the changelog of the nightlies, so yes, I do read em:)

But, I read if a Samsung ICS leak was flashed prior to cm9, it updated the bootloader which is causing problems. Just gotta find the Odin file of the old bootloader.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SeanHacker:
ummm...actually this is the CM9 thread bro. so this talk of AOKP is irrelevant. the changelog for this rom is exactly as i stated. so no. you didnt read it. im still unsure why you would be bringing up AOKP changelog in a CM9 thread when they are two separate builds and separate developers???
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] f100cleveland:
OK, a little misunderstanding on my part. I just glanced at your post about the changelog and assumed the other rom for some reason:confused: I'm not promoting that one at all.

My intent was just to say that there was a cm9 base change of some sort that doesn't allow our hacked kernel to boot on the 3/19 build. But trying to keep up on the op, it appears its a bootloader issue.

So again, sorry for the misunderstanding and I wasnt trying to bring the other rom into this.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SeanHacker:
no problems bro. i was trying to let you know that they are 2 different roms. AOKP does import CM9 changes, but when it comes to this thread the AOKP changes make no difference to us. :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] stone_ship:
Not sure what you are asking...hacked CM kernel bootable on nightlies prior to 3-19? Yes, I tried one out a few days ago. Hacked CM kernel not bootable with 3-19. I can try out something else if you need...

Wow that wake lock app is responsible for 53% of the dissipation of my battery! What a bunch of crap in my ass! Think I'll just deal with the random screen on issue then use that battery hog any longer!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] eep2378:
+1 I came to that conclusion as well weeks ago. Random screen wake is definitely the lesser of two evils :cool:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SeanHacker:
yep. lol. the name "wakelock" explains it all. that app keeps a wakelock at all times in order to prevent our phones from going into "deep sleep". the deep sleep is what is causing our phones to have the screen on/screen off issue. :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] hondarider525:
Im just going to jinx it now and say that I just flashed last night and haven't had screen on. Maybe Ill be lucky and it will last until the next update.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SeanHacker:
that just means that you have an app or something running in the background thats not letting your phone go into deep sleep mode. same thing as running the wakelock app. not sure if thats lucky bro. :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cabagekiller:
Have any of the devs figured out using logcats as to what is causing the screen on issue or no? I feel it was discussed prior but I cannot remember. and btw everyone samsung releases jank ass kernel source that generally never boots
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SeanHacker:
its most likely kernel derived. so when we get an ICS kernel more then likely it will be fixed.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cabagekiller:
Would I9100 kernel source assist in fixing that or is it just a shot in the dark until we either get a leaked kernel or source also?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] eep2378:
Yeah its one of the main issues Entropy will be looking to resolve when putting his kernel together.

also... if youre not outside with a clear view of the sky then forget about gps. thats just weird if you are trying to GPS anything from inside your living room. why would anyone need navigation from inside their home. try it when your driving at least.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
that's not necessarily true. While I agree to get the best and most accurate signal you should be outside on a clear day- but i also don't think there should be any reason for you NOT to get at least a decent signal and/or lock if your inside. I'm also not saying everywhere, but I check my GPS in my house sometimes to see if it's working and it does, i get a lock within a few seconds usually. Again, if your in a basement or the boondocks, I don't and wouldn't expect a lock- but it should still work even in your house.. just my 2 cents :)

i get a lock in my basement. im not ever worried about getting gps or navigation ever. it always works for me. i think you missed my whole point. different locations means different lock times (or no lock at all), accuracy, ect... i was informing him to go outside and try it and then report back. some people sit in their homes and try and get a lock when its just not possible in their location. others like me get a perfect lock in their homes in seconds. its all about location. but no bro. it should NOT always work in someones home. location does matter. :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SeanHacker:
me too dude. but when i go to my friends house its a different story. no lock at all. im thinking a couple of you guys missed the whole point of my post. location DOES matter. i get a perfect lock in my house no problem. but i can go to a friends house and not even get a lock. i was telling him to change locations if he hadnt before to see if he could get a lock. :D

But whatever dude.. maybe I did miss your point but I thought I made it clear that i agreed with you about getting an accurate signal.. oh well. :)

*EDIT* though i did say there's no reason you shouldn't.. obvious factors are there.. but if you have signal in your house you should still have GPS.. that was all I was getting at.
