I'm also experiencing the Superuser request problem.

Edit: You'll be less frustrated if you change your preferences in the Superuser app to always allow root access. That way you won't have to click allow a billion times.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] dennis96411:
Well I don't see the toast notifications but I think root still works for me, installed avast! Anti-Theft as root.

For Ubuntu users compiling CyanogenMod, it might be worth checking out this new gui tool that allows you to do so with something other than the command line. I haven't tried it yet, but it looks cool.

there is a bug when you try to change a desktop animation, the trebuchet aplication stops working, this happens since the build 050112. I wipe the system,cache,dalvik, etc before install the build
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] cmikeh2:
By desktop animation, do you mean the home screen transitions or something else?

[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] jocala:
Sorry, I can't confirm this. I cleared data for Titanium Backup and restarted it. Superuser popped up and accepted my "allow" first time. Rinse & repeat x5, no problems.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] gengiscb:
yes, home screen transitions
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] cmikeh2:
OK. I can confirm that I see a launcher redraw if you change a launcher setting, but I don't know for certain if this is a bug or if it's a necessity due to the design of the software.

Edit: Ran a logcat and am not getting an error or anything so I'm inclined to believe that the redraw has to happen go change the transition.

[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] strogg:
OK, here's a list of everything I've found so far for the latest update:

10%/hr battery usage. If it's not android system it is cell standby. On the xquizit rom, it's been about 2% an hour for me as a comparison.

SIP has echo on the other end after 10 seconds

SIP has no audio over bluetooth

Headphone jack will randomly disconnect in the middle of Pandora.

It takes a while to for the phone to wake itself up if there's a phone call.

Maybe once a day Trebuchet will restart. Not really a problem, but may as well toss it out there.

And, of course, no camera or wifi calling.

I seem to have no problem with disappearing text. Not even sure what that is to be honest.

Superuser has no problems granting privileges.

I get no random reboots

battery drains are near linear. Muuuuch better than any other ROM i've ever seen.

I get audio coming out in standby without a problem. All notifications and alarms are there on time.

All audio volume seems OK.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] danny8:
Newest ROM is running fine so far. Still doing partial wipe before update; one day I'll reset everything and do a complete wipe. Not yet.

No problems with Titanium gaining superuser rights. In fact, a minor issue where Ti Backup showed a blank change log after updating has gone away. :) That's nice.

I see some "holdouts" finally experienced a reboot or a disappearing text. Obviously some folks are plagued with these more than others. I haven't had these in a long long while. Still.

Thanks to everyone who contributes.

Anybody seeing bad battery drain in deep sleep? I updated to the latest version today (update on top of previous version which i did a clean install) and am seeing this battery drain issue in deep sleep like 10%/hour. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] andy o:
First of all, thanks for this ROM, great work. Haven't updated to today's version yet, I'm just catching up on the thread.

Regarding this (sorry that it's OT, but I got it working, and it's awesome to be able to use the native dialer instead of Groove IP. Also works on my CM7 VM670 phone btw.)

I was having similar problems as the others. At first, Sipdroid worked, but just for fun I changed the password to test it, and when putting it back in, it would not register again.

I solved it by doing this: (sorry, it's telling me I can't post links yet) [howardforums.com/showthread.php/1708357-Sipdroid-Pbxes-Registration-Failed-%28timeout%29-HELP!!!?p=14325313#post14325313]

I reentered the password there and applied changes. Suddenly Sipdroid would register, and also the phone's native caller. I then uninstalled Sipdroid. I had to let GV ask me every time I make a call, cause if you use GV to make calls, it will not be an internet call. So, choose GV for regular calls, choose not GV for internet calls.

This is also interesting information:

EDIT: apparently there's a problem when receiving internet calls. The internet call rings, and then it gets cut off by the forwarded call by GV, which apparently hangs up the internet call and goes directly to voice mail.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] skyrmion:
@andy. I should have finished off that post by stating you no longer need the Google voice app either, but if you go into its settings and choose "do not make calls with Google voice" you still get a nice voicemail transcription and notification.

@mahendra. Me too. If I reboot before it is going into deep sleep it drains normally. See if it works for you.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] KemikalElite:
The post is a copy of the guide I release on the dev thread last week. My guide has that listed in the steps, he just forgot to include it.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] andy o:
Yeah, that's what I do, cause I don't wanna get rid of the app cause it's better for me to use for texting and voice mail than the stock app.

I have a couple of problems with using the native internet calling though. I can't receive internet phone calls if I let Google Voice (the service itself, not the app) forward calls to my actual cell number, for when I don't use a network connection. As I said above, the forwarded call just shuts off the internet call after a couple of seconds of it ringing, and the forwarded call itself goes to voice mail immediately so I can't answer either. Besides, keeping the GV app lets me neatly choose if I want to make an internet call every time I call. Sometimes on the road I internet calls don't work very well and are very laggy (at least with Talkatone and GrooveIP which leads me to believe it's a GTalk protocol thing).

The second problem after a little reading is apparently a pbxes problem (read here: code.google.com/p/sipdroid/issues/detail?id=963 ). Even when disabling GV forwarding and letting the phone ring, the max it will ring is less than 15 seconds, about 13 in practice. The calling phone will keep ringing for about 10 more seconds and then go into google voicemail. There is a setting in "general settings" at pbxes.org that works only for shorter times, but not for longer. Can't seem to do anything about it.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] skyrmion:
Hey Kemikal, nice guide. I didn't copy you though. I had to figure that stuff out months ago. Would have been a lot easier for me to point out your post.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] andy o:
Sorry, that guide is great and I wish I'd found it before, but I didn't "copy" from it. I wrote the link to the post with the instructions I missed, and the basic instructions were posted in this very thread by skyrmion.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] KemikalElite:
That's the downside you can only either have the SIP calling or call forwarding enabled at once.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] andy o:
So anyway back on topic (sorry for the digression!)...

I see the Gingerbread CM (IHO 7.2 on my VM670) has an "incoming call in background" which disables the incoming call UI and puts it in the notification. I can't see it in this ROM, but just thought I'd ask just in case. Not sure if that would fix the forwarding problem, can't forward calls to the VM670, it has no service.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] ngfrazier:
Had to do a ROM wipe for 0507 version b/c I was getting reboots. So far, so good.

I ran into the SuperUser problem with Metamorph today. I don't really use Metamorph so I hadn't told SU to automatically allow access. The root apps I use regularly work fine but new stuff does not work.

EDIT: After some more testing I wiped SuperUser's data and that seems to have solved the problem.

Power up while chargin

Thanks jocala, for the stable and smooth builds.

I have tried most of your roms and things are quite good.

The single issue witch I encountered, was an odd thing.

While it does charge if I run My phone empty, I can't start the phone from the power button, until I remove the charger.

Regarding the camera, the folks on the Optimus One (P500), have managed to port somehow they driver. It works for still pictures and preview, no video and no panorama.

A romwipe is a feature of Jocala's newest version of Clockworkmod. If you're not seeing the "romwipe" option in cwm, you have the old version of clockworkmod in which you should update in my opinion. You can romwipe from old cwm, just wipe system, data, cache, and dalvik.

[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] KemikalElite:
Which variant of IHO was it?

If it was backside, I know JerryScript put in some custom ui features. Or it could just be a feature from base cm gingerbread branch that hasn't been merged/ported to Ics yet. Upstream has been pretty slow to move tweaks into cm9.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] andy o:
I think the battery meter is just not very reliable right now. I just fully charged my phone, and as soon as I unplugged it, it went to 99% (always happens), but then it stayed at 99% for almost two hours, until I just rebooted it, and booted up to 98%, which I think is still wrong, but at least the line is going down in the meter now (97% after a while).
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] jocala:
I dunno, mine seems ok. My battery life is pretty decent too, although I'm sure I don't stress my phone like most of you...
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] dennis96411:
AnTuTu benchmark score for the latest build is very decent, only about 100 below an overclocked (1.4GHz) Motorola Triumph.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] andy o:
I wasn't really complaining, just maybe that could be an explanation for the battery issues some are having, that the meter is just not very reliable. It's the first time it's happened to me, for the most part it's OK, though I haven't done direct comparisons with stock.

I have noticed that when I wake up after charging all night, that I did get down to 91% or so in an hour without using the phone, a couple of times.

EDIT: I didn't notice your screenshot. I'm also running only GV and Skype in the background. What did you use in those 17 hours? Seems like a very long time to go down only to 76%.

Step 0: nandroid backup.

Prior build, I wiped system/cache/dalvik, reinstalled cm9/gapps. Problem gone. Perhaps merely doing a cache wipe or a cache/dalvik wipe would have worked. idk.

Well I did do a full romwipe ...and reinstalled from scratch. and for the last few days it was fine. Even with the txt disappear issue it seems force killing Gmail and restarting it fixed the problem just now.

Vanishing Text and Battery issues

Very Odd... mine was perfectly ok for days and then today it randomly did it again. This is very confusing. Think I'm going to do a ROM Wipe tomorrow and just restart everything and see if that fixes it.

As I stated the other day, my discharging state does not work (And hasn't worked for a few builds now) for some odd reason. I have to restart my phone to get an accurate reading of where my batter is in power. Just time to ROMWipe I suppose.

I do like how the battery is very much calibrated, though. Mad props for that. And the fact that cm9 runs so beautifully it's *still* my rom of choice for primary use more than makes up for the battery fault. Keep up the good work!

YMMV, as always. I don't appear to have had any reboots. I also installed Juice Defender, after I read Dennis' post a while back and that has improved my phone battery drain to where I can use this daily.

It's much smoother than stock to use, benchmarks better and will only improve.

Best stable ROM with full functionality

I certainly appreciate all your efforts here but what about someone who is not an expert and just wants to get rid of the TMobile crab, increase a bit the speed of the phone and potentially allow tethering WITHOUT losing any of the rest of the functionality?

Basically, an incremental update that is simple to install and that has been tested enough and keep the rest of the functionality of the phone?

Any links/ideas would be appreciated.

Keep up the good work.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] dennis96411:
When coming from another ROM, you should do a ROMwipe (or /system, data, cache, and dalvik cache wipe) in CWM recovery. When doing incremental updates, you can just flash the zip file without doing anything else (although clearing cache every few updates may help clear up some of the trash from previous builds).

If you just don't want to mess with ROM flashing, here's what you can do.

1. Root your phone and remove the bloatwares yourself (check the list of safe to remove APKs in this thread, section 2B).

2. Remove "TetheringManager2.apk" in /system/app to get free tethering.

I recommend installing CWM recovery first and do a full NAND backup, just to make sure if you screw anything up you'll have a plan B.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] giorgos11:
My starting point is the original install that came with the phone, I have not changed anything.

So the Zerg Rush Root.zip will simply give me root access, it does not mess up with the phone functionality? Then I guess with superuser privileges I can remove whatever is already recognized as safe to remove?

Do I need to back things up ahead of time?

Also, what is your preference for free s/w for removing apps?

Thanks a bunch.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] dennis96411:
Ultimate Backup and Titanium Backup are both good, pick one. (I bought both of the pro versions :P)

Just follow the thread in the link I gave you earlier to help you root, afterwards you should have a Superuser app installed, and then you can do anything you want. I still recommend installing CWM recovery, but just make sure that you don't break anything and you should be fine without it.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] mahendra1020:
Just a thought, this thread is dedicated to CM9 development. Any generic questions should be posted here.

Don't ask about a camera fix. Read the previous posts, and you will know that there is no eta on the camera.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] dennis96411:
Please never ask for the ETA, a lot of unofficial ICS ROMs for lower-end Samsung phones don't have working camera because Samsung didn't release the drivers for them. For the warm thing, that happens if your phone runs something intensive for a long period of time, especially when it's in your pocket.
