Yeah, mirror.sea.tdrevolution.net is either being massaged a bit or something is awry. Even browsing file tree I'm not seeing nightlies. Hopefully they get it all sorted out soon.

CM got new build servers recently. Possibly part of the issue...

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
Nope.

Specifically - All custom kernels for the I777 are based on the safe I9100 update4 source base.

The only dangerous I777 kernels are the ICS leaks. UCLD3 for sure, probably UCLD4, but after the UCLD3 fiasco no one is even bothering to touch UCLD4.

People with wlan_rx_wake issues, do you have an infinite DHCP lease to the gs2 on your router?

I woke up and noticed my battery was draining far too fast, with wlan_rx_wake being the culprit, as usual. I looked at my router's DHCP logs and saw that the phone was renewing DHCP every 2 (!!) minutes! Apparently this buggy behavior happens when there is an infinite lease, and I am guessing this is the reason my battery is draining so quickly.

I set it to renew every 3 days instead of infinite, and the repeated DHCP requests happening every 2 minutes stopped.

I'll report back to see if this resolves the battery drain issue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] desitexan:
Thanks for the link! Worked for me!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] elherr:
Probably not the best idea. Build servers are probably bandwidth constrained.

Not I. My router is running pfSense on ALIX application board. Very well behaved as far as broadcast traffic and ARP. DHCP lease time set for 2 hours unless host requests longer lease. WPA2 group rekey happening every 10 minutes.

I'm trying to understand what is happening with BT-AMP frames (type 0x886c) on wlan interface. I'm seeing a spew of frames every two minutes while associated with AP and every one minute if the phone is not associated. Strange ****.

from your postings, you seem to be good at network and we look forward to you contribute and help us get rid of wifi drain and related bugs and issues ;) especially throw us ideas on why phone drains on one wifi and not on other,etc.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] elherr:
Thank you! It's what I do to keep food on the table. I'm heavily involved in the care and feeding of networks (Cisco and other vendors) from a provider perspective, and have wasted WAY too much time hacking on Linux (and other Unix variants) over the last 10 years.

I picked up the I777 about three weeks ago and it absolutely shines running CM9 -- with a few annoying defects. This is the first time I've dug into the Android environment and have received a few surprises (some good, most bad) when it comes to the Android implementation of Linux. I guess that is to be expected with an embedded OS...

The information on XDA has been incredibly valuable. Hopefully I can assist in some small fashion as time moves forward. I am, however, just starting to scratch the surface of Android internals. There is much to learn....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] thracemerin:
Problem is, many of the annoying defects are hidden inside proprietary blobs which makes it very hard if not impossible to fix them, some of these blobs can be replaced with open source versions with a little work, but Samsung doesn't like to make it easy to do things like this.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] elherr:
Or -- in this case, Broadcom in cahoots with Samsung. Yuck. I'm guessing Samsung had to sign a non-disclosure agreement and also had to agree not to divulge any proprietary information. Hence the blob. Fookers. One could go on and on regarding the state of affairs in the "intellectual property" arena.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] thracemerin:
Even the blobs from broadcom for the Nexus devices are closed source and come as pre-compiled binaries.

Didn't catch anything else though besides the phone crashing the system...actually I can kinda make phone calls...goes to 2 or 3 rings and then automatically reboots.

As for incoming calls though, the phone seems to work fine. My phone is not crashing on incoming calls.

Wifi battery drain fix!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] thracemerin:
From the commit comments:

To clarify the issue, if no saved network is available, wpa_supplicant_8 will try to create an ad-hoc network you have connected to before. So this bug does not affect those who has not connected to an ad-hoc network at all.

Have you used an ad-hoc network? If not this isn't going to do anything at all for your wifi drain.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] hi2u2:
No, i haven't. I was hoping that the issue would be related though.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] thracemerin:
Based on that comment it doesn't seem like it would be.

On a side note, codeworkx just posted a test build to the GT-I9100 thread that may fix the issues with the phone causing restarts.

Use chomp from the Market. turn off notifications in the the stock mms app leave all else. go into chomp settings. setup notifications in there. but still use your stock mms app. u will receive chomp notfications and screen will turn on. this is what i use for now until they implement this hopefully.

this is the only app i know of that will remove notfications from the top of the screen when reading them from stock mms app. good luck

Hi,

I've been looking at excess battery drain in CM9 and think I might be on to something.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=26400973&postcount=718

If you are experiencing unusual battery drain and think it might be wifi related, could you try disabling Google location service (NOT GPS, see attached screenshot -- uncheck 'Google location service') and see if it has a significant impact on battery life?

Thanks!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] vladm7:
interesting, I just tried on the lastest nightly and in fact that switch I'm referring to works - i.e. when UMTS selected, indicator never leaves 3g state. However I compared speeds of HSDPA enabled with UMTS and there is no difference: 4Mbit/1Mbit up/down at my location. I thought that no-HSDPA speed should be lower than 4Mbits....

i777 Bluetooth + my Beamer

Soooo I was just reading up on the change log. For tomorrow there is a commit regarding Bluetooth for Fords. Well, I figured I share my quirky issue. When I'm using Bluetooth audio to my '12 535i my SGSII screen stays on. I have to press the power button to force the screen to sleep. I have tried to reproduce the issue in another vehicle with Bluetooth audio. The phone screen does not act the same. I also use Bluetooth earphones for running/gym etc in which case the phone screen acts as it should, timing out. Isn't that weird? I'm only posting because I've not read anything about this before on XDA and I figured maybe someone would be interested or have a similar experience.

The issue is persistent throughout all nightly builds and since I've noticed the issue I've performed many wipes and factory resets. I've also looked at the log view-able using CatLog but I don't see anything that I could point out. Maybe there is a different log I should be looking at. Nonetheless this doesn't really bother me as I am used to it and it's not causing anything crazy to happen so whatevs. :D

---------- Post added at 08:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:04 PM ----------

I was going to say the same thing earlier but (in a whisper) I was scared to say anything about another kernel here. :D But truthfully I use Siyah in my rig and have not experienced any of the recent phone problems I am reading about.

Hi, I'm fairly new to cyanogenmod. I have a nook color that I dualboot cm7 and cm9, but I just started cm9 on my i777 a few weeks ago.

I'm very happy with this build of cm9! I have the 3/29 nightly flashed and it works great besides the already known issues.

I do have one question: does anyone know how to oveclock/under volt? Do I need a new kernel? Does anyone have a link to a kernel that will work. Maybe I'm jumping the gun and overclocking and undervolting will be available in a later build.

Thanks

Wow. I wasn't aware pointing something out was a crime. Way to prove that XDA members can be tool-bags sometimes. xD -------

anyways... The lack of Facebook sync is also a little bit of a pain; looking for alternatives in the meantime. Lost a lot of numbers I use all the time because of this.

Also- MHL is going to be supported, correct? - I know it's built in to 4.0, and that and netflix are used pretty regularly by me...

(edit) actually, I just plugged in my MHL adapter for the first time since updating today... Instead of a green screen, I see my display, but it won't update on the TV >> just shows whatever was on the screen when I first plugged in the adapter. - Progress though, yay!

Please -- go to the discussion thread. This is for development only and thread naming has nothing to do with development and is usually the last thing I think of when I'm coding the ROM you are using.

For developers, there is new code pushed that should make GPS work now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] atinm:
The fact that the development forums used to be just for developers until Android became popular and noobs showed up in the developments thread doesn't mean that developers who are actually trying not to deal with user questions all the time have to deal with it. We've requested nicely that you keep user questions to the discussion thread so that we are not wasting our time grovelling through questions that have been answered a million times and miss actual development related information. Otherwise we just stop reading the threads. We do pay attention to which users don't care about whether they are wasting our time and those users' questions are not on our list of questions to answer either.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
Same here.

Once I finish with trying to work with SteveHarperUK on dock audio and I fix the cpufreq stability issues, I think I'm gonna take a break for a week or two. The past two weeks has been a pretty hard push. :)

atinm - what's a good way to handle region-specific settings for CM? For example, wifi region settings from European firmwares won't work well here, and also, most I777 owners are on HSPA+ plans for which the default wap.cingular CM9 APN is not a good choice. However, if CM defaults to the proper settings, it'll break on non-HSPA+ AT&T accounts.

GPS has always been working, it just misreported sat status. If you see a position fix and 2 sats, you KNOW something isn't quite right. :)

Fix for sat status reporting went in not long ago - so next nightly cycle hopefully.

A select few people may still have GPS issues, but at least now they'll have sat status. In my case, I can lock even when in airplane mode.

I can confirm that I could use my MHL adapter and it would only display the last app I had open. I did not try a video. Every time I plugged in, the orientation on the phone switched to landscape.

So far I'm really liking this. Good work to all involved!

I haven't noticed any significant battery improvements with the latest build. What are you guys using to check wake locks?

I know it's a low priority for the devs, but I'd love to see some manner of BLN at some point. Again, though, I realize this is not high on the list.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] atinm:
Just look at your CPU deep sleep numbers in CPU Spy or related programs. Your phone should be entering deep sleep. If not, something is holding a wake lock. I haven't actually looked at this yet - and therefore don't know yet whether it is a wakelock or whether it is just some device that is staying up even when CPU goes to sleep. You can also look at kernel wakelocks under /proc somewhere I forget.

My phone does go into deep sleep, so I don't think there are any wakelocks I'm holding.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Danation:
Yeah, that's true. 26% of the time, it's at 200Mhz, which is much more than it was on gingerbread. It is getting to deep sleep 50% of the time, though.

Some previous posters were discussing how one item was using a lot of wake lock time, so I was just wondering how they could tell which item was holding the wake lock.

Cm9 is running swell on my phone. This is already better than Cm7 ever was on my phone. I'm sure with all the work that's going to be put into it, CM9 will only get better.

About the RILJ wakelock issue, I don't think it really effects battery life at all.

Did a test at work with it just sitting with my pocket after a restart and BBS claimed it held a wakelock of 9 mins over just under 3 hours. I looked at CPU spy for a deep sleep % and that was at 97%, which is pretty damn good.

IIRC, all plans are the same speed. They just give you a different sim card based on your phone. When I switched from an iPhone to the I777, they gave me a 4G sim. When I get an LTE phone, I'll have to get an LTE sim. The plan doesn't mandate what type of connectivity you have though.
