btw, looks like NFC support is making into the next nightly :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ferrocene:
Wow, flashed 4/17 and I get a GPS fix indoors in 5 seconds. Amazing. Before it took 5 minutes outside.

Great job devs.

(Still waiting for a permanent 5GHz fix. :D. Hey, I can never be perfectly satisfied!)

Confirmed GPS fix in 4/17, now I am using this ROM as daily driver
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] CyberpunkDad:
4/17 rocking! GPS lock is insane fast! Also, loving the new sound slider menu.

General thought here, would be cool to see face lock sample brightness and if lower than a value go automatically to keypad.

As always great job!

FYI - anyone who is running that hacked Gingerbread-port NFC mod - nuke it before the next nightly. I have no idea if it'll leave behind cruft the native NFC support likes.

Thanks to some tips for Chris Boyle on gerrit, NFC is now working. Fully native and open source other than a firmware blob from maguro. (The firmware blob from UCLD3 presented no noticeable benefits, and it was easier to have codeworkx grab it from maguro.)

GOOGLE WALLET IS NONFUNCTIONAL. HAVING IT INSTALLED WILL HOSE NFC ON YOUR PHONE.

You must reboot once after first flashing and booting for NFC to work. It wipes the secure element on first boot and that hoses NFC until you reboot.

What does work:

Misc NFC apps

NFC NDEF tag reading

Cyanogenmod NFC profile switching support
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] KevinChaos:
What steps should we take to make sure we fully nuke NFC before the next nightly? Would reflashing 4/17 be enough? I know that got rid of nfc for me and I had to reflash the enabler zip.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
Hmm... yeah flashing nukes system so that should be enough. That teaches me to post at close to midnight.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] os21um:
I was having the same problem. What fixed it for me was that I flashed the PhoneBricker Rom (in the Development thread) and then flashed back to CM9 after I was done trying PhoneBricker out. That seemed to fix the sound problem, for me anyway.

Try flashing another rom, one that is Samsung based, then flash back and that might do the trick.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] apanihi:
Full native open source fixed NFC! :eek::D:rolleyes::cool:

I'm not getting a lock on 4/17, do we have to do a manual fix?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] JmPTaz09:
No manual fix; it works like a beast on 4/17. You may not have maintained a clean system, reflash or wipe, etc., seems to be working as good as ever for many, including myself. Just got a lock in Google maps in like 5 seconds in my brick apartment complex!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Ashhong:
The brightness is noticeably less than what it was on Gingerbread. I am on like 4-3-12 nightly, so maybe it's been fixed for a while. But if you reboot your phone and watch the capacitive keys, you can see the brightness dim after the GALAXY SII splash screen. Someone on the AOKP thread said it's fixed for them.

Probably a stupid question once answered, but what is ums, also what is emoji? Maybe I'm missing something...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] tmckenn2:
Usb mass storage (usb: universal serial buss)

emoji is the symbols like the thumbs up and stuff like that...

Google: a search engine used to answer your wildest questions

Internet...... Nvm
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] madquack:
UMS means USB mass storage.

emoji is another form of similar emoticons we use for smileys but are much more diverse. Download handcent and the handcent emoji plugin so you can understand what the are.

Edit: Look at what Google can do for you! The more you know.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] harleydad82:
LOL, I was on xda reading, so I figured just ask the source. Wasn't sure about ums, but the emoji I thought that's what it was, but everything seems to have been working fine for me. Where is/was the problem with the emoji?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Danation:
I have noticed this as well, both on the CM kernel and the Siyah kernel. I use Go SMS with a custom vibration pattern. Sometimes it's strong, sometimes it's very weak.

Anyone else? Running 4/17

There is no 04/14 build...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] brendonlee:
I noticed starting today (at least i think it started today) that when building android using

./build.sh i777 kernel

now seems to only build the kernel when it used to build the kernel, copy it to the i777 directory, then build android. Did something change recently? I saw a few merged changes as far as how the kernel is built, but did that affect the way our build script works?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] mgd76:
Works fine, 4/17 nightly...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] aj9507:
Camera is A ok here on 4/17 Nightly
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] tmckenn2:
I took a look at the build script. the script it self doesnt show that it ever exhibited that behavior. and if it did and i missed it, there was nothing changed that would cause that. unless there is another file that would cause this change.

i havent built with that command but you might want to try using the one on that website right above it. or if you want to make it do it all at once make a script of your own that calls the build.sh moves the kernel and then calls brunch... just a thought.

also to the guy who said that there was no 4/14 nightly... so?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Slavestate:
That would be me. There was no 04/14 which he posted he was having issues with. He later edited his post and changed it. So?

Next time I'll quote the OP for the slow folks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] intrepresentation:
You can add these lines into device/samsung/i777/BoardConfig.mk and it should build the kernel from source.

TARGET_KERNEL_SOURCE := kernel/samsung/smdk4210
TARGET_KERNEL_CONFIG := cyanogenmod_i777_defconfig

Remove the old kernel:

rm out/target/product/i777/kernel

Then this will build it (probably the script will build it now too with the BoardConfig.mk changes)

make -j4 out/target/product/i777/kernel

EDIT: Looks like this should be integrated in pretty soon: review.cyanogenmod.com/#/c/14869/
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] brendonlee:
Thanks man! I was actually just looking at that change by codeworkx wondering if it would fix my issue. haha..thanks again though. Are you new to xda? Aren't you one of the developers that contributes to CM? I feel like i've seen your name on gerrit before
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] intrepresentation:
No problem...yeah hopefully codeworx's change gets merged in soon.

I've been reading XDA for years but haven't ever posted. Yeah I just made my first contribution today on gerrit...hopefully the reviews of it go okay :).

I have an i777 and i've been waiting for ICS and now that its here I'm super excited. I tried encryption out but it doesn't seem to be working so I decided to see if I can fix it...and I did! So that's what the stuff I just submitted on Gerrit today. I think its a really important feature (I have it on my Galaxy Nexus). Hopefully the fix will get merged in and it will make its way into the ROMs soon.

Now that I've got my dev environment up (after painful repo sync) I plan to start contributing a lot more.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] brendonlee:
Sweet! Good luck on the approval...encryption is something i've also been waiting for quietly...really important for some of the work-related stuff i keep on my phone sometimes :)

I hear ya on the repo sync too. took me several tries the last time i did a full sync. Great to have you on xda though, i'm sure you'll be over there helping atinm and entropy in the dev thread!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] harleydad82:
OK any ideas or help would be great, after extensive testing of different nightlies, I have concluded that the music/volume bug is fixed when listening to music thru the phone speakers. Once you plug anything into the headphone jack is when it doesn't work anymore. When playing music, and text a notification, it does the audible tone and then never returns to it's original volume. You have to hit the volume down rocker. I"m really dependant on using the headphone jack for listening to music. Any ideas, tips, bugs, apps? Thanks!!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] CNLiberal:
I guess the reason I said it was "fixed" was because after the dock audio patch was submitted I started using my car dock audio cable to listen to music. So it sounds like the headphone but is still persistent.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] CyberpunkDad:
Quick question. After each build I have to reads some entries to my build.prop once after flash. Anything wrong with the script? I so tire of copy/past LOL..

!/bin/sh

mount -o remount,rw /system

cd /mnt/sdcard

cat build-ref.sh >> /system/build.prop

mount -o remount,ro /system

Thanks for the feedback.

Maybe a dumb question, but why do the change logs talk about changes to LTE when the i777 has no LTE support?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] brendonlee:
The change logs show updates for CM9 as a whole, not specifically i777.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] KevinChaos:
Because they are non-device-specific cm9 changes, which are reported in the change logs for every device.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] KevinChaos:
Beat me to it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] drakester09:
Not all changes are specific to our device.

For example, those are changes made to the core apps that all devices use: Settings, Phone. They will appear on the changelog even though they do not correspond to our device functionally.

Edit: Ninja'd. Twice. Good job.

I thought you said 4/9 nightly was good? Or are you saying that 4/9 is still good but you're hoping to upgrade?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] naturefreak85:
Newest nightly just got a "bad" download and the log says it is an assert issue. I have been fine with past nightlies currently on 4/17. Download was 120mb so I know it was complete. I will try from Jenkins to see if the issue persists.

EDIT: Through Jenkins update worked but NFC isn't showing up. I looked under wireless and nothing like it was with the patched NFC that we had.

EDIT 2: Attempted reflash, still no NfC. Also Clockwork Recovery now requires again that I select internal SD in order to select the memory. Wasn't like that under 4/17 Upon further testing, it appears that the internal memory under this build is mounted as emmc whereas the external is mounted as sdcard. Total reverse. Not seeing anything about that in the change log.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] rqthrottle:
I replied to you on an earlier post... use Poweramp. It circumvents the bug.

I just flashed the new nightly, which says it enable NFC, but can't find any option for it in settings. I thought it was in "System Settings->Wireless & Networks->More". I did wipe cache & Dalvik when flashing.

WIFI driver failed to load

Siyah 3.1rc2 + CM9 nightly 19 = failed to load wifi driver in catalog.

I've flashed, wiped, wiped again flashed again. Of course using kernel cleaning script etc. No go. Wifi was working fine with siyah and nightly 17 and works fine with the stock CM kernel on nightly 19. I may flash back to nightly 17 because I love my Siyah kernel that much :-)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] harleydad82:
I read and understand that Poweramp is an app that would work. But it is not a free app. it only has a free trial. I'm not cheap, I was just hoping that the fix could come in a Nightly. I know there are other big fish to get fixed first. Just wasn't sure if maybe this was a small fix that could be done also. I will try the free trial and see where that goes. I thought that the 09 nightly was fixed but I just tried many nightlies and as though it is fixed in all of them, it's only thru the phone speaker for some reason. Thanks for the advice on Poweramp. I'm going to check into. Hopefully a fix can come. Thanks again.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] brendonlee:
Its also been mentioned on gerrit that CM supports swapping the emmc & sdcard mounts. so at some point, there should be an update that allows you to decide which you want to be for external/internal.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ou812bkewl:
In 4-19 nightly, the mount point swap described in the change log has my phone thinking that my internal storage is removable and vice versa. Anyone know of a fix for that? If not, I hope that change gets reverted soon.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] R2D2_SW:
I'll try that. Although I had wiped the cache from CWM and they were still showing. I'll do it from the Manage Applications settings as you recommended and check in a few hours.

Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] naturefreak85:
That's a system cache, that's different from an Application Cache. You only need to typically wipe system cache. Wiping the App Cache for Play Market helps it update when there is an issue with the data it has stored for you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] brendonlee:
Just finished installing my build from this morning and nfc options are still there. So I'm not sure why you guys wouldn't have it...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] naturefreak85:
Try to install the build on download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=i777. The other question I have is, did you install NFC before it was added? If so, did you flash a old build to wipe it out?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] CNLiberal:
I am also confused as to why it works over the dock jack. I built my car dock cable after following the instructions on this thread. The first post links to the original post "Fun with Resistors". That post contains the different resistor values that will get you download mode, JIB mode, and Home Dock mode. I have the resistor for home dock, but I haven't built the cable yet. Theoretically, it should work.

You can build your cable however you like. I used the parts from the second post in the thread. I bought my cable from DealXtreme and it took months for the cable to arrive. Then I found the cables on Amazon for nearly the same price so I jumped on that. I say if you have the tools and some experience with soldering, to give it a try. ALWAYS be sure to check your soldering work with a multimeter to ensure you haven't crossed any wires (ie, could fry your phone).

I didn't have to install nfc - it was a merged change a couple days ago that entropy submitted. There are two options in settings - enable nfc and enable android beam. Unfortunately I don't have anyone to test it with :(

I suppose I can install the official build to test for you guys. I'll be back.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
Siyah was never able to change charging voltages. It also was, at best, only able to change misc chargers to charge at 650 mA instead of 450 mA. I really wish GM would rip out the code he has in - it's incredibly confusing and misleading because anything above 650 mA does NOTHING.

Please don't discuss problems with alternate kernels in Cyanogenmod official threads. Only the stock Cyanogenmod kernel is supported by the team.

Speaking of that, coming soon (needs more testing):

Mali 3-step voltage/clock control

Forward-port legacy hotplug code (same as was in the last Daily Driver GB release) as stand-hotplug seems to be buggy **** even if it offers some nice features.

Some reworks in arch/arm/kernel/smp.c that may eliminate some RCU stall SoDs - however I believe most SoDs were caused by remaining bugs in stand-hotplug and the above change should fix them.

I thought a few patches I put in last week fixed the SoDs, but it turns out that I had disabled my SetCPU profiles at the time. If you don't use screen-off profiles with underclocking you should be stable until the above patches make it in. It could take a few days with the new kernel building code.

As to NFC - Those who installed hacks/mods previously (especially the Gingerbread forward-port that floated around for a while) may have hosed up their device and need to wipe. A common theme seems to be that those with issues were ones running hacks/mods. Those who were self-building and cherry-picked my commit from review should be fine - but I think I see only one person in that category and they are fine.

The change will NOT be reverted. It is now meeting the CM standard and I'm surprised it took this long to make the change. Internal storage is not getting reported as removable on my device. There may be some small board config changes needed to get everything tweaked up again though. There is a possibility that adjusting to the new mounting system may require a wipe.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] kest874:
It's an option under storage, storage configuration for this.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] rqthrottle:
Codeworx posted this on another thread:

Changes:

switched mountpoints for sdcards to match cm standard:

/mnt/emmc = internal storage

/mnt/sdcard = external sdcard

eMMC is defined as embedded multimedia card which means an internal storage.

from an technical point samsung and lg are doing it wrong to name it sdcard. htc is doing it right since the beginning.

And because this is the CM standard, we'll simply follow it.

You can cry about this change, but it will not help you. This is how it will be in future.

We know you'll cry. ;-)

The menu item "install zip from internal sdcard" in recovery now points to the internal sdcard. It's not reversed anymore.

The storage menu at systemsettings -> storage -> storage configuration does exactly what it says now. It's not reversed anymore.

I wanted to do this change in cm7 a long time ago, but didn't want to hear all the terrible crying about it. Now it's time for it. ;-)

Edit: C'mon, stop crying. Goto systemsettings -> storage -> storage configuration and toggle it like you want it to be.
