Correct, but quite a few apps give you the option where to store data generated by the app in other locations. If the app is creating a lot of data naturally one would want that stored to the removable media source. I have ran across this in a several different scenarios, the following being the most recent. It could totally be an issue with specific apps not being properly coded and I am sure it is but this may explain my question a bit better.

Auto Call Recorder (works like a dream) gives you the ability to select the location to save your audio files. The lowest level directory being /sdcard as the app has no root permissions making it impossible to reach the emmc folder. If /sdcard/external_sd was linked to /mnt/emmc this would solve the "compatibility" issue.

So I guess my question is has anyone else not had similar issues arise? Would anyone happen to know a work around for this? Have I just under looked and over thought?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] naturefreak85:
So you are talking about programs that can save into the SD card. You can try to create a Symbolic Link yourself in the SD card, or you can just email the developer and have them offer /emmc as well. I've done this in the past with developers and had no issues. Specifically with my Atrix that I used to have. It had a unique SD card location too. ext-sd which wouldn't show up but just emailling them that you want them to offer that location as a default option got it added.

Quick Googling shows that apparently it can be done. Go through this link and see if you can do it yourself, that might be your only option

My phone keeps dropping signal from 4g back to 3g. Also, on a speed test its only showing 1.6mbps down. I haven't changed an apn's. Can I get some help please?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] tmckenn2:
where do you live. the 4g to 3g "problem" is not a problem. that is what cyanogenmod has done since cm7, i forget the reason. but when data is getting pulled it will show H when data stops it will generally go back to 3g.

the speed can just be a restriction of the place you're living in... it really depends. btw 1.6mb isnt terrible maybe compared to a big city it is but some cant break a mb...

I just started using Friendcaster this week because of the FB SNS problem. It has worked really well for me so far. It is kind of themeable so it looks sort of like black infinitum and it pushes notification which the official FB app has never done for me. So far it seems to be nice to my battery too and it syncs everything including statues to my Addressbook. Apparently they just released some big upgrade for it, I guess I switched to it at the right time. *shrug*

Speaking of this...it seems odd to me that Facebook SNS seems to work fine in AOKP but not CM9. I have a nandroid of AOKP 0403 and FB SNS on there looks like it is working. Maybe it is just a priority issue. Either way Friendcaster actually seems better to me so far than the native FB app anyway.

It's called "telling the truth" and "not being broken ****". AT&T's framework LIES pure and simple and states that it is "4G" no matter what (unless going all the way back to EDGE/GPRS), even though normal operation is to idle in base UMTS mode and bump up to the faster modes when needed.

You don't want it to be staying in HSPA mode - radio power consumption skyrockets in these modes.

To say it again, in this regard: STOCK BEHAVIOR IS BROKEN.

A couple questions.

1.) When receiving a text, the screen doesn't light up like it would whenever I would get a text on the stock GB rom. Is there a way to turn this on?

2.) How would I go about changing the color of the toggles in the notification tray? They're a slightly different blue (on my phone at least) than the rest of the tray and it drives me crazy. Is there a file I could edit or anything so that I could change the color?

Any help would be greatly appreciated! I'm really loving these nightlies, thanks a lot to atinm and entropy and everyone else working on this rom.

Edit: Took out some stupid questions.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] hi2u2:
atinm/Entropy:

Wifi roaming is currently broken on the i777 as well as other Samsung devices, such as the Galaxy Note and the i9100. Currently, the phone will stay locked onto a particular AP no matter how far away/weak the signal gets, even if a closer AP is located in the immediate vicinity. I need to toggle wifi off and on to get it to connect to the AP with stronger signal. Needless to say, this makes the phone extremely frustrating to use, especially in places such as university libraries, which may contain many AP's.

This issue is well known (see http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=12649). It is a Samsung wifi driver issue and not an Android issue, as my HTC Aria running CM7 roams between APs perfectly.

Is the wifi driver something you guys can modify to fix this issue? Or does an updated wifi driver have to be released by Samsung?

A nightly is usually a build that's generated automatically every night that reflects changes in the source code.

AOKP is a different rom altogether. It's another alternative to CM9, which are both based off of AOSP, or Android Open Source Project.

I have 4 Ap's on my property and this has always been a super pain in the ass. I find myself disabling WiFi because of it :( I have yet to use a rom stock or not that traversing ap's is possible on with my SGS2. I have donation money for the person with this fix :)

---------- Post added at 08:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:28 AM ----------

Thanks for the reply! I also have an Atrix that I experienced this with :) I have already created a symbolic link with success but that only move one towards more issues. Since CM9 does recognize the emmc fine when it executes the media scan with a symbolic link in place you will get double listings (eg. gallery) as if the files exist twice to android. This is solved of course by using a .nomeda and/or sym linking only a specific directory.

So I will just go with the fact that this will never change in CM and move on ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] smitty1:
What I don't quite get is why there are nightly builds of this ROM but no fix yet to the audio bug.

Overall it is a pretty sweet ROM, and compared to the leaked ATT ICS ROM it kicks ass. The att rom is a bugging bloat ridden piece of crap.

The audio bug impacts the ROM as a daily driver, so much works right about the ROM but this bug in particular makes it a pain to use. Being able to receive a text while listening to streaming music and receiving a notification and have the music return to the previous sound level just does not seem like too much to ask.

Ok dumb question.. I understand that USB is totally different in CM9/ICS and it doesn't mount like it used to but.. I see you folks talking about transferring back and forth in MTP mode and gotta ask how the hell are you doing it?

Had mine connected my Mac yesterday and even though I had everything connected and USB storage on, nothing ever mounts on the desktop or anything so Im kinda clueless as to how to actually use this new 'feature'...

I didn't try the camera mode but I figured all that is going to do is cause iPhoto to open and try to suck all my pictures up..

Gotta get my old CM7.2 and stock nandroids off of here cause they're taking up all my internal memory!!!

(and stupid Apple removed FTP sharing in 10.7 as well as changed something in their Samba sharing so I can't use my good old AndFTP or AndSMB from the phone anymore)

Oh and BTW - atinm, Entropy, and the team.. GREAT job with CM9 so far. Phone is running liquidy smooth with no issues whatsoever. Considering nighties just started and we don't even have an RC yet, this thing is kicking some serious butt and is only going to get better as it goes.

Yup - as I said, if someone can find an Android device with a BCM4330, there might be a hope. Without a reference from a working device with the same chip, there isn't a chance of a fix. Broadcom products have zero documentation, gigantic binary firmware blobs, and poorly commented driver source code.

msm7230: update prebuild kernel (android_device_htc_msm7x30-common)

Ace: Support Android encryption (android_device_htc_ace)

Ace: update qcom prop (android_device_htc_ace)

Ace: enable mass storage (android_device_htc_ace)

Ace: don't override build_id (android_device_htc_ace)

Ok, so the first one is a given, I'm sure everyone know that. But for the rest they are all mambo jumbo. Maybe they're like that because they are overall system tweaks/corrections etc. that aren't really noticeable. But it would be nice to know what they do or why they're needed/.
