I've had this happen a few times now. One time I was able to narrow it down to one specific app that I had installed earlier in the day, but the other two times, it just seemed to fix itself on it's own. I'd just wait a bit and see what happens.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dcowboys2184:
If you changed the density that will happen
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garfnodie:
That was my first though too when I had the problem, but changing back to 240 didn't fix it for me. No matter how many times I messed with density, cleared cache and data or rebooted, it didn't fix it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SantinoInc:
Since you seem to have insight on CM9 let me ask: what does it take for a bug to get posted there? How many people must report the same issue in order for it to be listed as a "bug?"
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] b0tes:
That would make sense because I noticed the bug didn't occur until after I lowered my screen density.

However, I just tried changing back to the default 240, but still the same results...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mattykinsx:
You click "new issue" and submit your bug report...

All it takes.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jhgti:
In my opinion this is the right place for bugs, the other thread is in case someone has a solution., correct ?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brooksyx:
Well every item posted on there is a bug. Anyone can post on there. Most of the team is pretty busy with school finals but once we have more free time we should be able to go through and look at the reports and see what really is a bug and what isn't. A lot of the bugs will probably get fixed by themselves once future CM9 upstream syncs happen.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mattykinsx:
...and source code for ICS is released...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sk63:
CM won't accept bug reports for alpha/beta ROMs. Source: https://plus.google.com/u/0/117962666888533781522/posts/fN1iHLmnhRg

However Darchstar does accept reports for his build.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ffolkes:
Sometimes it can take a while for the change to take effect. I'm not sure why, but a while ago I reverted to 240, cleared the cache/app data, rebooted, even repeated a few times, and it didn't help. I gave up, but when I checked half an hour later, all the apps were back again.

For those changing their DPI, I recommend using this version of the Play Store: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1580827
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick4mitch:
Its not working, the link.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] reinaldistic:
we need to get with the xda team, the wiki still redirects the thread link of cm9 to darchstar's unofficial pre-alpha rom thread

Posted another link, for some reason minus uploads are only downloading with minus app??? :confused:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chrlswltrs:
This is the second issue I have seen where settings don't work after the screen is turned off and back on.

1. Color mode

2. Notification volume

Only things that bug me about this rom.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] onimike:
I recently upgraded from Alpha 1 to Alpha 3 and everything seems to working just fine.

What modem are you guys having success with? I was on EL29 forever and getting crap speeds, and I flashed to FD19 modem and have even worse speeds.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mattykinsx:
Honestly man, although people report 'great' speeds with FD19... the differences in most are minute.

Just because a modem is leaked doesn't even mean there's any changes.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] krazyflipj:
I suggest testing out all of them and use the one that's works best for you
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SantinoInc:
I suspect this to be true just based on the file sizes alone (which are pretty much identical) not to mention performance, which for me, hasn't varied a whole lot from modem to modem.

Unrelated: I just flashed the new rooted "leaked build" which some are saying may be the new OTA and I'm just not impressed. I was expecting EVERYTHING to be working and one of the first things I tried was CHROME. It was more buggy and just plain froze on me every time I attempted to use it. It is way more functional on here. Not too mention all the stupid stock apps and widgets your greeted with and the DPI that looks childish when compared to stock CM9. Long story short I flashed back to this (note: I find that if you want to restore a nandroid of CM9 obviously you have to go into EL26 recovery and RESTORE the backup but less obviously in order for ME to get it work I had to reflash the whole rom in order to boot up otherwise my restored CM9 nandroid wouldn't boot)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] neuteboomt:
Could you have just flashed a Alpha 3 kernel to get it to boot? This worked for me when flashing the tablet mode zip. I went to EL26 | cleared cache, dev | then rebooted in download mode and flashed the latest kernel for this rom.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
You're right, all he had to do was flash an AOSP kernel to get it booting. Also, Chrome has never worked well for me on any rom, its not really a rom issue I think but YMMV. Plus, you could have just changed the DPI to something like 200 and it would've looked way better.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] todivefor:
That is what one would expect. To nandroid, you have to Odin EL26, which makes your CM9 unbootable and is what you are backing up. On restore, you will have to restore a working kernel. This can be accomplished by flashing the rom without wiping.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TeamERA:
And if we had an update.zip of the current kernel we could flash that in el26 cwm and then do the backup, creating a perfect nand.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dschachm:
Does anyone have an update.zip of the latest kernel. I flashed a kernel and now I don't have root and can't use mobile odin. Don't have a computer either.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dtm_stretch:
Interesting idea, but I was under the impression that the update.zip won't apply unless you are completely stock and that would be cancelled out by using the EL26 kernel.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hermeticist:
The kernel zip file is used once the el26 kernel had been installed by mobile odin do that cwm recovery had been installed.

Ideal for nandroid backups and restores.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TeamERA:
No it will work, Ive done this already. And think about it, your using an update.zip to flash cm9 from el26. So when you flash el26 you flash the fd24 kernel then make your nand bu, then reboot, pretty simple.

edit, you would need to edit the install script, the update.zips that darchstar used to make wont work for the kernels we have now.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dschachm:
If we had a update.zip we could flash a kernel in the default recovery to change kernels.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TeamERA:
I dont think that works anymore.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brooksyx:
sorry I dont think that it is that easy...

Just be patient. Kernel will be here in time.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hermeticist:
I can confirm that it doesn't work from stock. Something about no signature.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick4mitch:
Yeah, it kills Andy! ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cheebahawk:
The Fd29 kernel is back on page 234-235. Battery life has significantly improved over 19. Did a modem for 29 get released?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dhyneland:
I think you mean FD24 right?

I grabbed the FD24 modem from here *Do Not* flash the Kernel from that page, that is a TW kernel.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Johnny Halo III:
Heard Darch may have left us for different phone. Can anyone confirm?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] riassan:
I posted FD24 from this build on 234, and it's definitely the right one. It came from darchstar
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ejlmd:
Thank you. Do you have a link where darchstar posts the most updated kernels?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] studdmufin:
So I have some battery questions. I know it is alpha and not complain but should I post some stuff about battery here or wait?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dadoc04:
something similar just happened to me after flashing the fd24 kernel... camera and all the other apps started using the internal storage instead of my external SD Card... (yes, the option was stil checked under the storage config menu)

im going back to the fd19 as all my appss saved to the external sd just fine with that
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TeamERA:
Im back on fd16 for the same reason, but I also had this on fd19, are you sure it worked for you on fd19. When I would take pics or screen shots on fd19 they would save to emmc, and the market stopped working. Back on fd16 and all works fine again.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlamian:
SD vs internal storage

I had to reboot for the storage change to take effect! Still on FD24 and rocking

yup... fd19 and everything is going to my external sd card

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dadoc04:
so i just flashed back to the fd24... think i figured it out

while on fd19, and having the option checked under storage config, my external is located at mnt/sd card

however,

after flashing fd24, my external is located under mnt/emmc..... also it doesnt change to mnt/sdcard with or without the storage config option checked

so in conclusion, while on fd24, i have to uncheck the box under storage config and everything is saving to my external sd (mnt/emmc) just fine

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SantinoInc:
I have never been able to Mobile Odin a modem. Better off getting the zip and flashing in CWM EL26.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
I custom compiled a version of Alpha3 with the FC24 zImage and modules and it does not exhibit the same sleep/screen of death issue, so its definitely a problem with the newer kernels and certain phones. I am guessing they tweaked something in the kernel speed/voltages on newer builds.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daniel4653:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] atomb:
I just flashed the Kernel you linked to and after booting up and checking settings it has installed FD16 not FD24 under Kernel Version.

The FD24 AOKP Kernel works fine as long as you install SuperSU from the market first so you can keep root.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Nextelian:
Yep, me. Had to go the long way around and reinstall CM9 from scratch. Mounting the USB was not even an option on the notification thing, and selecting the mount methods under storage did nothing.

2. PRL/Profile Update

4. ?

Only think that made me go back was battery life. I needed gb for school. Lol

Have you notice the screen having funky lines on it, when switching from the phone or turning the screen on and off

Sigh. Then go talk to Google and Facebook and tell them to add support for it. The lack of Facebook support contact syncing is not a bug, that's just the way ics is.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hermeticist:
That's probably a feature the CyanogenMod team will add in future builds. As far as I know these alphas are adapted from current gs2 nightlies.

I know that AOKP and code name already have that feature.

Patience is virtue. Or just use Friendcaster to sync.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] info[]box1:
I think that a AOSP fix Pete Alfonso stumbled on. I'm it will be added when CM9 go mainstream.

This is what Ive been doing. Ill remove my external sdcard, install the kernel (fd19,24,26 seem to have this issue) in odin, boot, go to settings, storage, storage settings, storage configuration, and check the box to use internal storage. Now take a picture and one screen shot to make sure its saving to the internal memory with no errors, maybe even download an app. Now install your external sdcard while the phone is on. After doing this your internal sdcard will be under "emmc" and your external will be under the "sdcard" location.
