This device certainly has it's limitations but for what I paid, I can't complain. Fact is if I hadn't of discovered XDA after I bought the phone, who knows. I doubt I could have stuck with it for very long. The stock ROM was very slow. Thanks to devs here, we can have a phone that performs above its pay grade. The challenge to make it better is a big one, but Jocala, Arco, Bpear & Camcory have been up to the task. The prospect of having to go the contract route to get a high end phone does not appeal to me in the least, and neither does paying top dollar because I won't do a contract.

Glad to report this is working great, getting notifications now too. I did a search on Google on my desktop about the Papa John's story today, and minutes later I got a notification about locations and directions to Papa Johns. Not bad!
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] danny8:
That wiki article doesn't show a list of CM9 apps which are safe to remove, so that's not what I'm looking for.

But yeah something similar for CM9. I had that wiki in mind when I spoke.

Dodger, how is the voice search working for you? Mine is too laggy to bother with. Anyway, I'm glad to hear your success. I'm gonna stick with it a while, see how it works. Which of the versions did you use?

I agree with your point about value/$ for the Exhibit II. I have been getting frustrated lately though.

Must be getting spoiled by the N7. Still prefer this phone over the 7 for podcasts though. Oddly, the Exhibit is quite a bit louder with headphones versus the N7. But not using the speaker.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] ArtfulDodger:
Voice works great, and I used the M6 offline/online version. Wiped cache before installing, just to be safe. Far as lag, set your CPU to "interactive" or "performance". Use an app like ROM toolbox that will allow you to tweak memory also. I use that and Auto KIller, things run pretty smooth that way. Only problem is be prepared to spend a few bucks if you do.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] briot12:
Whose Google Now version are you using? Mine works near perfectly.

And yeah, cheap no contract phones ftw!
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] famous26:
I finally flashed CM9 after running Peach for a while. Thanks for the wonderful work, Jocala. It's really amazing and it'll be hard to go back to a GB rom after this. Unfortunately, my system's performance is quite sluggish. I went with the Google Now that Jocala included in the gapps zip. I also supercharged but couldn't notice a big difference (made sure to follow Zeppelinrocks' instructions for ICS and v6 reports 100% supercharged). Most apps just take longer to load up from what I've become used to while running Peach 2.0.

I will probably restore my Peach nandroid. However, I have a quick noob question: before restoring the nandroid with CWM do I need to Romwipe or will our CWM wipe everything automatically?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] afwolfpacked:
I have cm9 and peach both on nandroid and freely swap between the both. As from my experiences I haven't had to do a romwipe when in recovery and restore. Never had errors and never lost any data. A romwipe isn't used by me personally.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] strtkempo:
Have you tweaked the settings in performance at the bottom of the settings page? It will help greatly to play with these settings to suit your needs ( Nan first :D) also limit Widgets you don't use or can live without. Also pulling battery while phones on then rebooting ever couple of days or so will help with laggyness. I'll post what my performance settings are later, I have little to none when I reboot frequently. If your bouncing between Nan back ups you don't need to romwipe.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] interessant:
Danny how did you setup icon less home screen. I have apex pro as well but can't seem to figure it out.

[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] famous26:
Thanks for your help! I don't have any widgets and very few apps. My performance settings are on interactive right now. I'll keep trying some things and see how it goes. Are you running Google Now? If so, which implementation?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] strtkempo:
No problem that's what we're here for:cool: yep I'm running jocala's zip before he included it in gapps (which I'm assuming is the same version). Its a bit laggy but usable, its a port and very happy for the devs that made it possible. I have absolute faith we'll get a good stable build soon enough.:D
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] a0b1c2:
Hi,

While CM9 is choke-full of extremely cool features, on my phone, it does run a bit sluggish. I'm in a bit of a quandary because CM9 is quite frick'n cool! :) I'm currently using RebelROM which I find exceedingly fast. It zips along on what I believe is my underpowered phone.

Once the camera issues are fixed with CM9 (and it'd be great if the bottom buttons could be configured to always stay on ... for my aging eyes!), I'll try CM9 again. I'll see if removing apps will have it run faster. I'm not quite keen on having to reboot the device periodically (as suggested) .. sounds ... well ... old Window-ish behavior. :)

Cheers!

[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] famous26:
Just put it on "performance" and it's much better. Which v6 settings are you using?

Another question: in titanium backup it is showing, in red, an app called sound recorder, but it's not in my app drawer. I'd like to get it working, if it's a voice recorder.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] a0b1c2:
Unless the Linux governing software is broken, during demand, the CPU should scale to the maximum. Setting the phone on performance forces the CPU to always stay at maximum. I'd suspect it'd cause excessive battery consumption.

I do recall on earlier CM9 tests, just for grins, when I set it to performance, I didn't notice a difference. However, that was before the latest drop, which was far faster than the July 4th drop. :)

Cheers!

-pablo
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] afwolfpacked:
I use superunleaded in 256hp setting the 512 causes fc's in any setting. Not sure about the recorder off the top of my head.

Red apps are system apps so there is a recorder somewhere.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] danny8:
There is an app called Minimalistic Text that will let you do it. Each text "icon" is a separate widget. I went overboard and hurt my performance by using too many. I've scaled back.

Lol! I have a new favorite expression. To be enjoyed with a delightful cup of coffee.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] airwickkk:
I freezed dsp, it got rid of the temporary bass distortion, but I still have a slight hiss.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] afwolfpacked:
Try beats for dsp it will reinstall but a modded version of dsp to see if that might make a difference. After that I am at a loss other than the thought maybe the internal speaker might have become damaged as bit. Just guessing on that. We all agree the internal speaker is weak and Max volume just to hear it ring.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] T679noob:
+1

I love minimalistic text, but holy redraws.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] danny8:
Holy redraws. Amen to that bro. Plus the settings UI brings my phone to its knees.

Speaking of Apex + MT widgets, there might be a niche for a laucher that does a pure text homescreen(s). I would pay for that.

MT is extremely non-intuitive plus it has a bunch of nonessential features that only bog it down. Just one man's opinion. I did pay for the donate version but I can't recommend it in good faith.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] T679noob:
It actually got to the point where I had to hard reboot my phone, on multiple occasions, because MT bogged me down so badly. And that's with only using it on the home screen. It's so bad (_!_) though lol
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] famous26:
Thanks, Pablo! I did notice the battery drain with "performance" on.

I have another question. I know about the difficulties with the camera, but until now I had assumed it was only the back camera. However, using google talk I was unable to use the front camera for video chat. Was I doing something wrong? In any case, I love the cm9 build, but I've flashed back to Peach for now. I was missing the speed, which is just amazing on PS. I'll be reading to follow further developments. Thank you all and especially the devs!

[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] a0b1c2:
Howdy, I can't answer about the camera stuff but I doubt you're doing anything wrong. If you haven't tried RebelROM, I strongly suggest it. :)

Cheers,

[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] afwolfpacked:
The cm9 camera only works with panoramic mode rear camera. No front face. It is a minor issue that is in works until then you can do as I and a few others do and swap between roms as needed. I love cm9 and peach so I have nandroids of them both and a restore takes only about 5 minutes. No need to romwipe or reinstall apps or settings. Text call logs numbers documents its all there as you left them
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] famous26:
Yup, that's what I'm planning to do, Afwolfpacked. Pablo, hasn't Brandon stopped working on rebel ROM? May give it a try too.

[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] a0b1c2:
Howdy,

I don't know who Brandon is ... I'm very much a newbie around phones ... I thought RebelROM is bpear96 - see http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1483989

Cheers,

[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] danny8:
In the original post it states the camera is only working in panoramic mode. (It doesn't work that great either in panoramic.) And the OP says nothing about the front camera. Please go read or re-read the original post.

Knowing nobody intends to harm, but it becomes a bit of irritation to read mentions (always the same thing the camera) about stuff covered in the OP.

I guess it's sorta like our Constitution. And No ETAs is our Bill of Rights. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] famous26:
My apologies, Danny8 et al. Somehow it never clicked with me that the front camera wasn't working, although I was perfectly aware about the rear camera working only on panorama mode. Silliness on my part. I have actually read/skimmed every single post on this thread and am highly aware of the no eta rule :)

Pablo, Brandon = bpear96.

Hey guys

rebel rom seems to be lacking support ( I know this is a hobby etc)

Is CM9 stable enough to switch to as a daily rom?

thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] afwolfpacked:
CM9 is stable as long as the few issues doesn't bother you. I use it about 50% time. Just tweak settings for memory and battery and you will be more ythan pleased.

It basically takes a screenshot. I wouldn't call it "working" as it isn't fully functioning.

On a different note, Cyanogen will be releasing CM9 stable tonight.

Not gonna do the whole "when will we see a new build" thing, just spreading news! :p

And continued kudos to Jocala for all the hard work! :D

Wifi not in range

Hi Jocala and good people here!

please assist me get pass this issue. i have followed all instructions to install this wonderful rom but I'm unable to connect my wifi after flashing. I have rom wiped, cleared cache and davclick and switched between roms without any success. i have tried it on a different EII4G with the same results. Counting on you,

thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] afwolfpacked:
Not too sure which thread I was on before I started messing with some setting but gist of thread is better battery by switching over to edge as default is constantly searching best signal for 4g and edge is 2g. I turned mine to edge and have no performance decreases and noticed the edge has yet to search for signal. Here in NJ I have towers everywhere so it works for me. Battery did last a bit longer to boot. Sure everyone's mileage will vary upon individual usages. Near bottom of phone something change GSM/cdma to GSM only

To get to the settings open phone dialer enter *#*#4636#*#*

[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Crow550:
I got Google Now and it runs fine for me. Mikeyxda's version 6

My settings under Performance follows:

Processor:

CPU Governor set to on demand and minimum set to 122mhz and max 1024mhz

Memory management:

zRam set to 26%

Allow purging of assets and kernel samepage merging checked.

Also have Surface dithering on. (seems to look a bit better)

I also use the free version of Chainfire 3D. Have Unroll textures checked.

Google Now is cool but I still use Vlingo as well as it's car mode to be really handy.

Go under system settings storage and captive menu to change it
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] strtkempo:
Duh I feel stupid too many beers:D
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] jocala:
This has been discussed, sorry you missed it. To recap, the changeover from emmc to external_sd broke the cm9.sdswap.zip and also the swap built in under storage settings now works rendering it uneeded anyway. The swapsd.apk has always been only for stock gingerbread.

You should be able to restore your original vold.fstab file. Connect via usb, boot into cwm, and mount /system. Then issue the command:

adb shell cp /system/etc/vold.fstab.backup /system/etc/vold.fstab

Unmount /system

Reboot. You should be fixed.

I'm not sure if I'll be of much help but I've ran into a wifi problem before on my device earlier in June where no matter what I did (flash other roms or wipe the whole internal/sd) I couldn't detect any wifi, instead it kept on telling me that it was searching for wifi, but after few seconds it either turned the wifi off by itself, or sometimes just gave me a flat "error" message. I looked pretty much everywhere on google and android forums and in the end I called T-Mobile and used the manufacturer's warranty (like it gives you 1 year after purchase to return/swap phones) and they sent me another exhibit through mail, and T-Mobile charged me 20 bucks for it, which I say isn't too bad of a trade. Hope this helps, and good luck to you.

I guess the odds are just against me. I have done restarted the router as you mentioned but still not working. sometimes i am able to find the wifi but as soon as i connect i get the" not in range message". What baffles me is how its able to connect when running peach or rebel roms.

thanks in advance!

I was thinking about finally moving to cm9 but now idk, are others having this issue too? Also have any of you that are tryed doing a battery stats wipe? and or a romwipe/cache/etc a couple times? Also side note i wonder if you take the battery out and just plug it in if itll power on might be a little test to see if it gets power, would be kinda nice to know.(what would happen if it doesnt and your batter runs out : o lol )

Ok it seems to charge when turned off, I have flashed back a build now though. Thought almost lost my phone it was at 6% but luckily my brother has the same phone on gingerbread.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] afwolfpacked:
As near as I can tell it is indeed charging. When powered down the battery charge animation isn't working. I figured because mine s jellybean extreme themed and that's a CM10 theme that works. Earlier my battery died after complete install of all my apps and logging into all my accounts and not done female a nandroid but rather a clean app install. Takes more time but this is to be a perm nandroid base for me. I briefly charged phone and finished a few text had battery at 36% did v6 install reboot and battery jumped to 46% and now 73% and climbing. Just shutdown and no battery and had blank screen (times out about same as battery icon would) so no big deal to me I know it is charging. Further proof is to dial #*#*4636*#*# and it will confirm and match least how on mine it does.

Someone said wifi issues no connect. Mine has no prob.

I did romwipe and all the cache and davlik wipes prior to install. Used gapps from CM9 no Google now. Phone calls is reported by other end to be louder and clearer than stock peach or earlier CM9. No static waterfall sounds or harbors as I had before.
