To word it a different way - The linaro enhancements won't improve anything that's handled by blobs at all, and the blobs are where a lot of the heavy lifting is done.

http://www.reddit.com/r/GalaxyNexus/comments/usos8/linaro_optimized_cm9_builds_for_vzw_and_gsm/ - The Linaro optimizations only helped in a select few benchmarks.

So far, the only thing the Linaro prep has gotten us is briefly broken tethering and it seems odd behavior in Foursquare (confirmed at this point) and reported in Tweetdeck and Instagram.

I'm still trying to figure out if the Foursquare issues are due to the major app overhaul, a change in CM9, or a combo of both.

Has anyone suffered any adverse mental effects from Cid the Robotic Overlord? That glare is evil.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] thracemerin:
Cid owns my soul.

Yeah, I saw that Reddit, and on my personal compiles with the Linaro stuff for GNex I would say that those benchmarks are mostly accurate, I can say that it seems smoother, but that's likely all placebo based on the fact that I want it to seem smoother. I'm beginning to think it was mostly hype and possibly a helluva lot more bother than it's really worth.

There's a guy in the GT-I9100 thread claiming reverting these two commits fixes Foursquare.

I just flashed the latest nightly (6/15), it's my first taste of ICS (and of CM) and I like it a lot, except that I've had to force restart three times now in about 3 hours.. Just using the phone normally and it'll crash, most recently I opened up Temple Run and before I got to the main screen it froze and I had to hold power for 15s to reboot the phone. Once it started up again I was able to open the game and play it fine.

I came from SHOstock (gingerbread), so I flashed CM9 and GApps, then did factory reset and booted it up, re-downloaded all of my apps from Play Store - I think that's the right way to do it all. I haven't had any SoDs recently, and there doesn't seem to be any /proc/last_kmsg file.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] KevinChaos:

NY Times app and non-stock ICS

Not specific to this release but I noticed a weird issue with the NY Times app and non-stock ICS. Whenever I open and try to read an article using the NYT app, my phone (GS2) freezes and reboots. This also results in a battery drain of anywhere between 10% to 20%. I have noticed this happen around 4 times and happened to me while running CM9, AOKP and Shostock roms.

Did anybody else notice this?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Cybergeist:
I'm using 6/17 at the moment with no noticeable issues.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
90% of the time, complaints like this are due to the user messing something up.

I cannot reproduce the claimed issues.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] iXNyNe:
I haven't noticed any lag or consistent heating in relation to lag, but i do notice random heating in my pocket and consistent heating when playing certain (demanding) games. The random pocket heating I can't figure out, better battery stats doesn't have much to say about it, and I'm not educated enough to read a logcat. I do have lots of things turned on; Google account syncs everything, I use backitude for latitude to cut down the updates hopefully saving some battery life, and I use auto Bluetooth to turn that on with incoming calls, and I get fairly decent battery life, and better battery stats seems to imply those items are not causing much drain, so I'm not sure what's up with the heating.

Running 17 no issue. I hope I don't jinx my self only had problem with 11 12 and 15. I don't know if its my setup. I been installing cm9 like the usual from day one wipe cache and dalvik before updating to nightly. And I would do a total wipe ever once in a while specially if the update is big. I dont flash any other kernel other than what comes with nightly. I don't know what the issue was but its gone. Thanks again for everyone and the cm9 devs
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] :
The random heating thing is a known hardware issue that effects random phones at random times across all roms, including stock. You may never see it or you may see it frequently. At least that's what my research points to. I see it regardless of what software I'm running. A reboot usually takes care of it.

Battery level creeping up

I've seen this a few times. Sometimes I'll reboot (normally if the phone has locked up or had similar problems -- doesn't happen often), and when it comes back up, the battery level will be ridiculously low. For example it'll be ~60% before rebooting, then after it will be at ~15%. The percentage will gradually go back up for a while. In my cases, I think the crash+reboot process makes it report wrong, then it eventually realigns with what it should be.

I haven't really dug into it with BBS or anything, but that's what I've seen.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] PR-0927:
Anyone else been having heat issues? I've been having it with both June 15th's and today's build.

I was running Siyah kernel, so I thought that might be it - changed the CPU governor from PEGASUSQ to ONDEMAND, and the current frequency sat at 1200MHz (for both of them), barely ever changing. I rebooted multiple times, no difference.

Upon flashing the latest CM9, I didn't put Siyah on there. Was using CM9's kernel. Same heat issues.

And of course, battery life has basically disappeared...

And no additional programs seem to be running in the background or anything. This is very odd to me.

My phone does this all the time, too... except it didn't exactly realign. I used to be able to use the phone straight 4 hours with the screen on, but it's hardly even 2 hours now (1% loss per minute with the screen on...). It just happened again yesterday. I'm trying to realign it by sleeping it to death (which increased the battery percentage to 23%), taking out the battery for an hour, and plugging it in battery mode for another 6~ hours. It's so easy to replicate this; it's not even funny. Despite this, regardless if it's a CM9 problem (never happened to me until these nightlies), it's easily the best phone I've ever had, and soooo much better than stock.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] PR-0927:
Thanks guys, much appreciated for the input. Oddly, everything is fine now, even with Siyah tossed back in there. No idea what was causing it, but if it happens again, I'll be sure to check the CPU usage thing.

Rebooting on low battery causes artificially low SoC estimate - hardware limitation. It's the one corner case in which our fuel gauge performs very poorly. (The advantage is that it never needs calibration in any other case, and in this case it converges over a few hours of normal usage.)

As to Google Voice issues - As I don't use GV I cannot reproduce, replicate, or debug these issues.

If it is somehow caused by CM, I suggest reading the discussion around http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=27538476#post27538476 for ideas on how to rewind a tree to a given time to rebuild and test. Find the culprit commit (if it is a CM issue and not just GV making a change that broke things) and I might be able to help you.

Yes. Definitely. It will start and run cool for a while. Then something happens and it gets really hot, won't cool down, and the battery drops like a rock.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] thracemerin:
surfaceflinger is part of the graphics driver, it draws and allocates the graphics, so if your phone is displaying graphics it's going to be running.

I love everything with CM9. I mean who can hate it. Luckily for me, I have not faced any problems since installation. And I am on it for a week now. Everything looks good, including the battery. I am easily getting for a day with 3 hrs of screen and 1 hrs of talk time. Generally, I use the mobile more of a mp3 player and for playing Chess (not so intensive on the GPU). So this is great for me...

Coming from CM 7.2, I just miss some options. May be I have not understood or explored CM9 much :o

1) Turning on music controls on lockscreen 'always'. I tend to use the player more often.

2) Making the 'Silent' MOde ON from the Lockscreen.

Could someone tell me if these options are already available there in CM9?

And I feel like the option for "accessing Camera from the Lockscreen bypassing" the password" would be good. Is it possible to attain this through any lockscreen apps? Please through in your thoughts...

Thanks ALL!!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
Not really - but as others mentioned, sometimes another app's misbehavior (e.g. excessive redrawing) can spike surfaceflinger instead.

Just like apps misbehaving on the network can spike Android OS up.

Camera on lockscreen can be achieved by using the standard lock screen, no security. Any app can be added there.

Lock screen options

In CM7, there was extensive lockcreen timing options and clear distinction between slide-lock and pin-lock and the timing of each... this made my use of the phone more secure and at the same time much more efficient.

I don't see it in CM9. I am not sure if it's just me not being able to figure out the setting, or that' those options have not been implemented yet to CM9.

Any thoughts on this?

I dare not ask if that will be implemented. I love what the developers are doing and wouldn't want to sound like I am nagging. I was pleasantly surprised to find those options in CM7 since I have been looking for those options since day one after living windows and getting an android (which was an HD2 by the way ;))
