[Question] CWM backup

wipe factory data/factory reset, wipe cache partition, wipe dalvik and format system before installing this (update-cm-9-20120422-NIGHTLY-i777). Then I installed Siyah v3.1 posted by ktoonez from forum. However CWM backup doesn't seem to work (I'm getting an error whenever I try to do a backup) error is "unfortunately CWM has stopped working. Just wondering if anyone has encountered same issue:)

Does anyone know of mhl to hdmi adapters are supported?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] thracemerin:
There is sadly no way to force apps, etc... to use the internal if you have it mounted as /emmc, this seems to be a limitation in the way apps are coded and it can't be forced at the ROM level without a lot of fancy pointer adjustments, it's mainly an issue where app devs need to not hard code path pointers from what I understand.

I've always liked the CM7, CM9 camera. But I have to say that lately it's working really well for me. Not sure if it has been touched anytime recently or if I am just experiencing a placebo, but it really seems to be working great for me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
Well, you thought wrong. Try rereading the first post of this thread.

If you are running some sort of hack or mod - Take it to Themes and Apps.

If you are running an alternate kernel - Use that kernel's discussion thread.

In short, if you flashed anything in CWM other than gapps after flashing CM9 - do not discuss it here. If you manually hacked up files in /system - do not discuss it here.

No AOSP-based ROM does this. Samsung implemented that into TW AFAIK. My Nexus S never had that feature in either GB or ICS.

The CyanogenMod team changed the codename of the phone from "galaxys2att" to "i777". In order to view the nightlies meant for the i777, you'll have to reflash ClockworkMod Recovery. This time, make sure you select the version meant for the "Samsung GalaxyS2 (SGH-i777)" rather than the "Samsung AT&T GalaxyS2".

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] CNLiberal:
Was this merged into our CM9 for the I777? If so, I'm really not understanding how it works. I have my BT GPS (Garmin GPS 10x) powered right now, and the phone is paired to it. However, GPS Source is set to Garmin under LOCATION SERVICES. Does this mean I have to make sure GPS is set to on in the status bar? If I set that to on, that means the internal GPS should not be powered correct? I'm still losing battery when I have this plugged into my car dock charger with auto-brightness enabled. I'm really confused.

I can gladly take this question to it's own thread, but I still need to know if the above was merged into our CM9 or if it's just a part of CM9 in general. Thanks!

Under 4/23 the power button can no longer be used as a shutter even if enabled under camera settings.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
It's part of CM9 in general. GPS itself on our device uses very little power - it's screen and CPU that are draining.

Unlike the original GalaxyS, we can't crank charge current past 650 mA. :( Try underclocking using a SetCPU profile.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] rqthrottle:
I have the same exact problem. I tried 4/20 and reverted to 4/19 with factory reset, and clearing all caches.

My uneducated guess is that a full wipe was needed. There must be a file lingering somewhere that is causing this issue.

truth be told I'm on 4/17 I would like to keep up with the nightlies but... Not sure about the huge benefit, and my main concern... Everyone seems to be having problems when they go from 4/17 to 4/19,20,21,22. I'm not wanting to wipe my phone. I have the phone how I like and I don't want to lose anything in the process. If I wipe what will I lose?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] apanihi:
To all you 4/17 lovers, try 4/23. No problems here. Minus of course the swapped mount point you can change while the ROM is running but in CWM will stay flipped (no biggie).

I had zero issues going from 4/17 to 4/22. Not sure what happened with the mount points, I find it hard to follow. But everything seems to be working fine and my data appears to have stayed on my internal memory (which is considerably larger than my puny 2gb external).

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] CNLiberal:
Entropy,

I've heard you make the 650mA comment before. But you never cited your source. So I did a Google Search (imagine that!) and found what you were referring to here. That shows the I9100 only capable of a 650mA charge. Freaking ridiculous!

Let's think about this. Samsung makes the I9100/I777. They produce/sell a car dock device. Using the stock Samsung ROM, you could not have auto-brightness set, and have Google Nav working, and be using this car charger and have the battery actually charge. How did Samsung even think this would work? Tell me I'm mathing wrong somewhere, because it makes no sense to me.

Also, I don't think I ever heard back on CM9 having USBAudio implemented? I asked a while ago in this thread.

Thanks for all the hard work! I'm loving this ROM! The phone however, leaves a little to be desired in the power department :-)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] harleydad82:
So if I was to go to 23 from 17 ...what needs to be done, there has been allot of talk about wiping, and other things. I normally just wipe the caches. My main concern is not losing anything, would rather not have to do a full wipe. What steps or tips?

I had experienced RILJ wakelocks on every single nighlies after the 4/3 one, up until the 4/17 one. At that time, I updated to 4/17, 20, 21, 22 and 23 and did not experience any issue. This morning, I noticed my battery was draining faster on 4/23 (but still no RILJ wakelock), so I decided to restore my 4/22 backup. To my surprise, I started getting RILJ wakelocks. So I went back to my previous backups all the way down to the 4/20 one and I'm still getting that RILJ wakelock. I don't get it! I hadn't seen this wakelock in a while and at the time of the backups, I did not have it. Why is it that suddently it reappears and starts haunting me again? Does anybody has any idea how to shake it? I'm not sure what to think of this because with the same settings it worked fine in the past but when I restore, it comes back. I'm pretty confused here.

Any help is appreciated.

EDIT: At last, I found the culprit. The phone had somehow not registered to the AT&T network, causing RILJ to go nuts. To solve the wakelock, I went in the settings and under Data usage, i selected More-> Mobile Networks-> Network Operators and then selected AT&T. A message saying the phone had registered appeared and gone is my RILJ wakelock.

You are mis-understanding me. I have already created a car dock audio cable. It works to charge the phone and output audio over the D+ and D- pins. However, what I'm referring to is the ability to plug in a USB audio DAC like this.

Yes. I saw that one too as well, but I don't app the messaging app in question. Plus, with the exact same settings, I had no wakelock issue. I made my backups not having any RILJ wakelock so I don't understanding why restoring bring this issue back. It must have something to do with something else, perhaps a file on my sdcard or something that I need to get rid of.

I would like this to be true, but i've been reading so many ppl having problems, and some are doing a full wipe. Anyone else? I'm wanting to keep up but, don't want to start a bunch of problems. Once i flash the latest nightly, what needs to be done with the storage?

Have any of your apps updated recently? An app update is always a potential cause
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] R2D2_SW:
Good point. However, when I restore, I get the message saying that some apps have updates available but I don't download the updates. So this means, my apps status is the same as it was when I originally made the backup, and therefore I should not get an RILJ wakelock I would assume.

GPS was working great on 4/17 but now it stopped and can't find a lock (navigation is always searching for GPS)

What happened? I haven't flashed anything new (still on 4/17)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] KJ7409:
the full wipe was required if you installed the NFC enabler mod, as it is now implemented into the ROM. you should be fine.

That's good to hear thanks for the update. I do have a question how did the gyro (compass) work for you when you were using gps? I heard from a few post that it was a lil wonky in the past few nightlies. thanks in advance.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] thracemerin:
Compass works while GPS is active since the GPS can figure out which direction you are facing, without GPS however the compass is still wonky, it has to do with the open source sensor HAL, Entropy said in the GT-I9100 thread that atm its either the light sensor or the compass, only one will work at a time, they're working on it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] switters1:
Did 4/23 or another update since 4/17 fix something GPS related?

If not, this observation might just be noise-- like my initial improved GPS performance on 4/17
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Lekerstein:
Ah, right, that's why I didn't have to do full wipe - I didn't previously have the NFC hack. As such, I haven't had any issues with just wiping cache and dalvik from 4/17 to 4/22.

So to make this as simple as possible: if coming from 4/17 or earlier and you DIDNT have the NFC hack, just wipe cache and dalvik. Don't even worry about dealing with anything concerning mount points - its under the hood and does not affect anything you do as long as you haven't previously fracked it up (as they would say in Battlestar Galactica). Do the full wipe if you had the NFC hack previously.

Someone else can correct me if this is wrong, but it has worked perfectly for me.

Now i'm getting a message that reads: ENCRYPTION UNSUCCESSFUL encryption was interruppted and can't complete. As a result, the data on your phone is no longer accessible. To reume using your phone, you must perform a factory reset. When you set up your phone after the reset, you'll have an opportunity to restore any data that was backed up to your google account. I do not want to lose anything on my phone most importantly my pics, music, and contacts. frankly i don't want to lose anything on my phone. I tried flashing the 4/23 over to see if that would have worked but to no help. Any ideas? PLEASE!!

Has anyone run into a dead internal sdcard after getting the encryption unsuccessful message?

There is a thread in the Cappy forum about this and it seems that there are two possible scenarios:

A. Data encryption, fixed with data wipe in CWM (not with the factory reset button, I think)

B. Dead internal sd, unfixable, workaround is to use external sd as substitute.

I had scenario B with my previous Cappy. :(

I'm hoping that by doing the backup using cwm that i will not lose any new pics or music. I also made a backup of my current configuration, but it just won't let me do anything, in recovery, i can see everything, but it says i can't access my data.

I can get into download mode, and recovery, i also can see a com link when using download mode and using odin. My nightly that is on my comp is 4/03. What should I do. I am afraid that it will erase photos,pics and music if i restore to an early point. when phone connected to comp it recognizes it is hooked up using usb. But when clicked on the drives it says insert storage. I have read that this makes my internal useless and i have lost everything, is this true, ideas please?

Also i'm now connected to the computer in download mode, and it says to not turn off target, how can i dissconnect with out messing up anything else. can i just dissconnect from computer while in this mode? While connected I also am hearing a faint clicking noise. Again please give me ideas, i'm so screwed.

Really just a noob who's been lucky with these nightlies and flashing in general. Just got this a month ago after retiring my atrix 4g (which I would love to put a boost card in strictly for a hotspot, but that's for another day another forum) To the developers, you guys are incredible and thank you very much. Don't know how to find the button to thank u legitately with tapatalk but THANK YOU. I found the nightly starting on the 17th and have been reflashing constantly :-) The mount positions moving haven't bothered me too much but I have a 32 gb SD card that got moved from the atrix so it KIND OF keeps me sane when I get confused because other than that they tend to look the same to me. I was eyeballing the encryption feature yesterday and may be glad I didn't give it a shot. I did have problems with 4/23 though, CWM kept fizzling out when it was time to flash (I didn't get a screen shot) and goo and Rom Toolbox wouldn't work either. But I went through CWM & for some reason the internal SD card (which might still be mislabled according to CWM??? Like I said I am pretty much ignoring what is actually where) Once I mounted it 4/23 flashed just fine. Don't know if that's normal procedure or has anything to do with anything, just figures I would mention it while I was saying THIS ROM IS AWESOME and THANK YOU.;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
Hey there.. yeah you can disconnect in DL mode so long as YOUR NOT FLASHING ANYTHING. By default it says do not turn off target but as long as your not actually flashing you'll be fine.. unplug and reboot.

As for backups and loosing stuff- did you read my reply to your question in the last page? If you restore a backup you'll be fine. You'll only loose anything that is new: for example if you've added any apps since "x" nightly and you restore "x" nightly, your gonna lose the new apps. But pics and music should still stay on your SD card. Restore a nightly that was working well for you and try upgrading from there! :)
