I "think" using the pull command works (see below). Please tell me if I'm wrong. I cannot confirm as I believe my repo sync does not get all CM9 sources. I got 11GB with du -h | tail -n 1 but I cannot compile as it is looking for stuff inside ~/android/system/out/host/ and I didn't get this directory (whereas I get them when I download gingerbread or ICS)

cd ~/android/system

One word NANDROID :eek:

via swagg gangg
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Faultyy:
Yes. In ClockworkMod you can back up your current rom including your apps and data then flash CM9 and then you can restore your backed up rom if you wish. It's called a Nandroid backup.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Tim1928:
Is there a camrea fix ?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] jocala:
Scroll to the bottom of each patch. You'll see a row of labels:

Click cherry-pick. Grab the line of code directly below it:

git fetch http://review.cyanogenmod.com/p/CyanogenMod/android_hardware_qcom_media refs/changes/79/11979/1 && git cherry-pick FETCH_HEAD

This is the git command that will apply the patch.

[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] kingdavidd:
I had the same problem with the sd card, go in recovery and just format the sdcard and it should be able to work after that.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] danny8:
You can format the external SD using CWM, but be careful.

I had problems with corrupted data on my external card. As far as I can tell, it happened when I copied data using the USB cable.

It got to the point where I was unwilling to 'mount' the volume on my PC using the data cable and then copy data to it.

No. Jocala would let us know. Be patient.

download link

i cannot seem to get the download link to download the file from the download link.

is there another link you can provide so i can download the cm9kang05zip and the gapps zip file as well. thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] jocala:
Sorry, no. I just checked the links and they are working. Have another go, please.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Tim1928:
i had this problem with the CWM file it said invaild link. so i downloaded it to my phone and then moved it to my computer and extracted it and then placed it on my phone and it flashed perfect

hope this will help
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] dennis96411:
You can skip the computer step by using a file manager app on your phone that can extract archives.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Tim1928:
this is good to know
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] KemikalElite:
I did that and it wants me to select the paths for the patches manually.

I've almost finished editing my Ultimate CM Guide for CM9.

Test release

Download here

This test release incorporates the newest adreno 2xx GPU drivers, specifically designed for ICS. My testing indicates the painting glitch we occasionally see is gone, and the display feels a bit faster overall.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] jocala:
What was the exact message?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] pixeltrailz:
Link is broken
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] dswaggz:
It works just tried it

via swagg gangg
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] jocala:
Not here, downloads fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] danny8:
The link works here. I look forward to trying this.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] dswaggz:
Has anyone tried reloaded ics zip on newest test zip

via swagg gangg
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] danny8:
Coming from the ROM called XquiziT_v5.7, I did the following:

1) Made a nandroid backup.

2) Did a Superwipe_v3_mega with CWM. This wipes the internal sdcard in addition to the usual wipe of the system, data, and cache volumes. Superwipe reboots the phone when it finishes.

3) Installed cm9.kang.test.zip using ClockWordMod recovery tool.

4) Rebooted the phone after CWM was done.

5) Waited a while for phone to start. Logged in, played with phone.

6) Realized I hadn't installed the Google Apps.

7) Rebooted into recovery mode. Installed gapps-ics-20120317-signed.zip

8) Rebooted phone after installation.

I have yet to see a video glitch or artifact. Phone is working pretty damn well so far.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] wogeboy:
Thanks for the instructions....

But after the Superwipe3 does its thing, phone will Reboot By itself, correct?

After it starts to reboot, do you still need to hold down Vol Up and Pwr button or will it boot automatically into CWM?

THX
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] T679noob:
Automatically boots to CWM
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] lolitsjae:
quick question, was there ever a google calendar sync fix? just wondering.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] braski:
It just fixed its self. Works fine here
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] SurgeRush:
Sorry I haven't posted on this, been pretty busy. Yes, it is similar to what the stock does when it detects "unsafe" volumes, EXCEPT there is no warning that pops up and it doesn't lower the volume after, it just simply keeps pausing it.

I am not able to bypass the issue by letting the warning disappear and waiting, I've been playing with this issue since I got the phone, I haven't been able to bypass it in any way.

I'm back on the stock rom at the moment, I was on CM9 all weekend though (Had no problems by the way, other than the obvious. I actually never even had the glitchy screen problems everybody else was having). How exactly do I do a logcat, never done one before. When I go back on CM9, tonight or tomorrow probably, I'll do one.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] dennis96411:
Nice one jocala! Will try to run some benchmarks and view some HD videos after installation.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] lolitsjae:
Oh, okay thanks just wanted to know. :)

btw I like this build, very smooth, and running on nova launcher makes it even smoother. Thanks jocala.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] dennis96411:
Hm, I'm guessing it's only a partial hardware acceleration because I still can't use hardware decoder to watch HD videos (MX Video Player). I do notice that the UI is a bit smoother though :)

Benchmark Summary:

Quadrant actually yielded a lower score than my previous one (by about 30) :3

I noticed that in Smartbench the underwater scene ran significantly faster, it was like 5-10FPS before, now it runs somewhere around 20-30FPS as far as I can tell. This benchmark yielded higher score in the gaming index department than before.

Scores:

Quadrant:

Before: 1381

After: 1348

Smartbench:

Productivity Score:

Before: 681

After: 699

Gaming Index:

Before: 1369

After: 1745

Proper backup before flashing

Been lurking around and recently installed CWM. Took a backup to the external sd card.

Would it be safe to assume that the backup of all the contents of the internal memory? I want to make sure I have a good backup in case there are any issues when flashing ROMs.

---------- Post added at 10:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:34 AM ----------

I just downloaded CWM an hour or two ago, is there a way to tell if I have the most recent version that you just posted about?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] richardlibeau:
Everything is backed up just make sure you keep it on ex card when flashing because it wipes the internal memory out. I assume you mean the phone memory not sd card.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] jocala:
Check the filename. cwm-t679.01.zip is the current recovery.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] dennis96411:
CWM itself shouldn't wipe the internal SD card if it is not told to, only Superwipe v2 did (v3 doesn't do that anymore).
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] jocala:
We're not quite there yet. There are patches upstream awaiting merge that enable hw accelerated video. It's a stroll, not a sprint :)
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] dennis96411:
dswaggz... You were banned for a reason (for being annoying as hell of course). It's also against the rules to create another account.

Rule 14, read 'em and weep.

By the way jocala, it seems your test build with the Adreno drivers broke the GPS :P

Oh and I just made a little *20 minute* video going over the ROM. It won't be fancy and there won't be talking, but I just went over the ROM in general. Rendering and uploading the video right now (would probably take a few hours :P).
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] wogeboy:
Sweet, a video would be cool.. thx :D
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] jocala:
GPS...That is a show-stopper. Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] dennis96411:
Indeed it is, when I got to testing the GPS during the video, nothing would happen. Tried it a few times then finally gave up. :p
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] T679noob:
Ahh, so the netflix issue is a direct result of this? Thought maybe it was app-specific. Good to know.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] braski:
No broken GPS here gets the address correct and everything took a bit to start tho

Usually it's got me next door
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] dennis96411:
Are you running the latest test build with the Adreno GPU drivers, or build 5?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] braski:
Yes only thing i found is you can't turn it off and on through the power widget, status bar and system settings work fine. Took 2 to 3 minutes to start then it woks fine

Edit: scratch that, threw the power widget away and put a new one on works fine
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] dennis96411:
That's odd, it just stopped working for me after I installed that new build. Yes I wiped system, cache, and Dalvik cache.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] braski:
I didn't and just for ****s&giggles tried it again it works with wifi on, got me a few miles off with it off

i just wiped dalvik and cache
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] briot12:
Camera

Would it be possible to use all the camera files on the stock rom and use them?

Oops repost, sorry but is this simply a driver issue?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] dennis96411:
No, it's not compatible with ICS. They'd have to either port it or completely rewrite it. This method would work for GB based ROMs but not on ICS.

EDIT: Ah crap it's too long >_<
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] jocala:
GPS

The gps issue is a regression, related to the ancora/ancora_tmo name change. Fixable, and not related to the new gpu drivers.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] dennis96411:
Oh, thanks :D
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] jocala:
No, I just discovered this. It's good news :)
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] lolitsjae:
GPS is definitely the show stopper...hahah

is there any way I can get my sim card contacts on to the device? Google account has sync'd fine..but I don't have half of my contact numbers because theyre' on my sim card..any insight would be awesome.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] SurgeRush:
If you do a quick search, it seems that netflix is a problem with cm9 all together.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] dennis96411:
Okay I sped up the video and now it's down to ~15 minutes. Hopefully YouTube will spare me the extra 20 some seconds, I hate having to render this again XD
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] cmikeh2:
In the Contacts app: menu > Import/Export > Import from SIM card

Like I said it's just a casual overview, nothing too fancy.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] lolitsjae:
Thank you very much.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] KemikalElite:
Nice. I tested this with my new MIUI 2.3.23 build and my render issue seems to now have a workaround. Similar to normal CM9 the screen becomes overloaded with static when scrolling. Now with this latest update pulling down the notification bar redraws the display until its scrolled again. Before this press the back key was the only way to fix the static. These driver updates have definitely helped my ROM. Hopefully once those upstream acceleration patches are merged my MIUI won't have any visual issues.

Thanks. Judging by how the issue on my ROM only happens on MIUI, the framework must work with the hardware differently or something. That's the only major change in MIUI.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] joshua.justice:
The copy and paste menu is half off the screen and also screenshots don't work :(

Edit: Nvm screen shots are power and volume down but I noticed that taking a screenshot always plays a loud shutter sound. Even when the phone is on silent. Any idea how to fix this?

when i try to download i get this message it is the same that i got when i tryed to download CWM but i got that to download on my phone. but these wont download to my phone i get this message

[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] joshua.justice:
Sorry to sound noobish but I assume I just type those in in terminal emulator?

Jocala is there anyway for you/us to change what functions appear on the lock screen? Like right now it's the camera and unlock but I'm curious about changing it.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] jocala:
adb shell is easier:

adb remount
adb shell mv /system/lib/hw/gps.ancora.so /system/lib/hw/gps.ancora_tmo.so

If you do use terminal:

su
remount rw
mv /system/lib/hw/gps.ancora.so /system/lib/hw/gps.ancora_tmo.so

reboot. gps should now work
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Tim1928:
thank you it downloads now
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] joshua.justice:
I typed the first line in and hit enter to type the second and it said location not found.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] dennis96411:
Easier way is to use any file browser application on your phone capable of browsing system files, and point it to /system/lib/hw/ and just rename gps.ancora.so to gps.ancora_tmo.so
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] jocala:
+1 Dennis, cuts to the quick:)

Also, I hope to have a new test build tomorrow, the gps regression is fixed.

Haha I just added the songs' names to the video's description, go crazy :P
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] lolitsjae:
+1 Nice work! I also agree with jocala...like your music taste haha.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] joshua.justice:
I can't tell, the file manager included in the ROM was the one I was using.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] dennis96411:
Try ES File Explorer, it's free from the market. If you don't want to use that then go with the ADB or terminal method.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] braski:
Hey Jocala i know you said not much you can do about third party apps but this didn't happen on the previous builds using headphones and power amp when i get a text or call instead of pausing n ringing it plays the music and the ringtone over my phone speaker whereas before it would pause and play on the headphones
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] jocala:
CM9 has a different kernel, customized for CM9. You can certainly use Odin to flash back to stock, but that's the hard way. I keep several ROMs/kernels on my emmc (external sd) and flash between them ad hoc.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] joshua.justice:
Any idea if you'll ever get the camera fixed? Also how's the battery life?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] lolitsjae:
ahh that definitely makes more sense! custom kernels suck :(

But you ARE a troll.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] danny8:
Kem's crispy kernal

In the Exhibit II wiki article it references an upcoming ROM by KemikalElite.

Is this by chance the same ROM being discussed in this thread? I'm thinking it isn't, but I'd like to know something about this upcoming ROM. Anyone know about it?

(dennis, be nice. :rolleyes: )
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] dennis96411:
Yeah, it's been announced for awhile now but we haven't heard any update from KemikalElite. By the way I think jocala is working on the ROM alone right now, with just community helpers and testers. We're still not really sure what Kemikal is working on, but I'm sure it's something that will excite everyone. :)

And it's quite hard to be nice to a troll that repeatedly breaks the rules of the board (poking developers to develop/port something, posting completely unrelated replies, etc.), and on top of that his grammar is just so... disappointing. I lived in China for 9 years, and in only 3 years I have achieved better understanding and usage of English than him, apparently. Sorry to be so mean, but I'm just really mad that people take English for granted.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] desaleter:
Quick question? Has anybody done a quadrant score on this ROM yet? I cant test it out right :(
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] doc.fr33man:
Performed decently.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] desaleter:
Performed quite better than RebelROM, cant wait for the fixes 8).
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] jocala:
No. This is not the ROM pre-announced in the wiki by Kem. This is CyanogenMod 9, based on Android 4.x aka Ice Cream Sandwich.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] jocala:
Best bet for trolls is not to feed em. I'm guilty of that myself, but from now on, I'm using the ignore button. Right now my ignore list is empty. I'd like to keep it this way.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] dswaggz:
Guys in cool I promise just can't get the new market to install

xquizit to u hataz
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] KemikalElite:
Well the ROM was originally intended to be a stock ROM before we had CM but I'm much more used to making themes for more generic versions of Android like the Optimus line (O2x, P500, 3D). I wanted to initially wanted to create a 2.3 Nexus-like style but the stupid Samsung Touchwiz kept getting in the way of that. The theme was pretty good except I couldn't get the status bar to show up.

As for a CM KANG, I restate that many features are missing compared to 7.2. In the mean time that brings a lot of opportunity to port things over myself. CM is something that is difficult to modify and repackage as something else. The reason I say this is because CM's goal is to create a custom ROM that conforms to the user, not the user conforming to a ROM.

However there some additions I would want to put into CM.

- Manually set the current amount of data usage after a factory reset.

- Port T-Mobile Theme Engine from CM7

- Colored Set of ICS Themes

- Port CRT Power Animation

- On-screen Capacitive Buttons

- Global Haptic Feedback

- Modify the Phone Goggles CM7 feature for the alarm clock.

- Make the ROM support Google Chrome Beta

- Add Overclock values

I'm still learning how to modify most of this. Hopefully I'll make the themes soon.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] jocala:
I haven't tried the new market/movie/songs/app combo yet. It sounded like stupid marketing bs to me. It should auto-update in a day or so, so don't sweat it.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] hotsauce126:
Honestly I'm so happy with this rom with the features that it has already

I flashed back to peach because I use the headphone jack on a daily basis, but if that gets fixed and once the home button is fixed I'll be happy to use this rom full time

by the way I didn't notice anything else that doesn't work aside from what's already listed
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] jocala:
I hate not having the headphone jack more than not having a camera :)
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] jocala:
Please start with the headphone jack :)
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] camcory:
Copy this file to \system\usr\keylayout to fix home button.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] joshua.justice:
It still gave that privileges thing :/
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] braski:
Did you go to settings and enable root access
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] dennis96411:
Yeah make sure you have root access and the Superuser app :P
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] joshua.justice:
I will again

I did I think
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] dennis96411:
Download the Root Checker from market and see.

Also, I heard somewhere that our phone has FM radio capability hidden within the wireless chip, but that may be a lie.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] joshua.justice:
It worked. It was just the included file manager that was messing me up. Now GPS is accurate to 3-4 meters and I've heard this too but I read somewhere that the function was disabled by T-Mobile or someone else.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] jocala:
Sorry, idk. All I can say is that I hope an upstream commit will fix your problem.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Tim1928:
flashed this rom tonight first one to

but i had a problem with the notification bar glitching

but overall i like it i am gonna wait for the fixes like camera and other bugs

good job man
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] betocg:
alright guys ive been following up on this rom alot and im really liking it so great job jocala and everybody else that has been working on this. and as well thanks to dennis for posting up the video for this rom. as of right now could someone tell me what is working and what is not and if the wifi works? thank you very much
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] joshua.justice:
It's all written in the OP. Right now the camera is the main thing that's not working.
