toggles are just fine as they are now. Music app will not be replaced because you won't be able to set an mp3 for example as ringtone, function which Google Play Music does not have.

Who is a fan of Google Play Music or any other app, just install it. No need to overload the rom by including apps.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] TheeWolf:
Hi,

Flash stock ROM again. after that, make a backup of the efs folder.

After re-flashing ICS333, move

all of the contents

(not the folder itself) of the efs folder of your backup to the efs folder in the root of your device. Reboot and your IMEI should be restored.

There is a reason why I don't add that music app, and is because that app is not officially available outside U.S.A. and including it is against Google policies

Could we make the IMEI backup instructions more in bold and prominent in the first post please, in particular mentioning that the contents of /ets should be copied rather than the folder itself. I think this is wise. I know it's a common thing for seasoned flashing champs but it took me a while to find that there's nothing to worry about but for a few minutes I thought I'd completely ruined my phone, especially when my /efs backup appeared to be corrupted.

Perhaps even something in the flashing process that says "Your IMEI will be wiped and you will need to restore a backup. Check your backup now"

Hi,

I'm trying to mount /emmc to /sdcard/external_sd or something like it, because a lot of apps can't go up on the sdcard (Yes I know that the problem is the app, but this is not a solution to talk to every developer).

I'm following the steps on this site http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/34456-can-i-change-de-external-sd-location/ but when I reboot, I get a boot loop...

The lines in the build.prop don't exist in this rom, so i don't changed anything on the file.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] yaneck:
Sorry, I didn't notice. Thanks. But in my opinion it is a bug if you have to install "patch" to stop apps force closing.

I think bug section should be updated:

- rom not always work with Semaphore Kernel (bootloops)

- 720p recording was not working with latest devil kernel in my case (maybe it is just my case or maybe it is not working with that kernel)

- apps can force close until you install appropriate package (if apps crushes after installing rom that means it is unstable)

Despite above rom looks realy nice and is smooth and fast.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] el_navajita:
In any case, it's a bug of the kernel, and if you want you can report it in the Semaphore thread. I know all kernel developers are concerned about this problem and trying to solve it.

Probably you chose the wrong variant of Devil kernel. In any case, that problem is not ROM-related at all.

That's not a bug, that is a limitation of our beloved phone. Some people get those FC, but the majority not, and there is a penalty in the performance so, I could release two different variants of the ROM, or you could just apply the patch if you think you're gonna have that problem. If I were Samsung and I were selling a ROM, I would have to make it work for everybody under any circumstance, but that's not the case because people that use a custom ROM are supposed to have a minimum flashing skill.

Thank you very much.

IEMI Backup

ignore i was wrong!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] yaneck:
Thanks for answer :) I didn't know it is because of kernel and I thought the kernel is a part of rom :)

All in all there is some work to do to make it work stable in some cases like mine - choose good kernel (by testing it), flash package fixing FC.

Above informations are importand for me and if I am choosing a ROM I would like to know that and have on mind that things like that can happen - that is the reason I wanted to share my observations with others who will find that ROM interesting and decide to try.

Hi,

For some reason, the gallery cannot see images that are in the external sdcard (emmc of course) and music players can't play songs from sdcard (the file explorer I'm using has a music player, and by opening the file explorer and clicking on a song, it plays. but thats not a solution).

Anyone can help?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] benurb:
Tbh I haven't read the whole thread so I don't know if my problems where already mentioned. Maybe someone can help anyway:

1. I'm having a similar problem as TheeWolf. The music player doesn't show all of my music (from internal sd-card). If I open the missing files manually everything is working, but they're not in the artist/album/title-view. I already tried to remove the sd-card a few times (ungracefully and gracefully) and media scanner ran, but the media list is still not complete.

2. I don't know how to determine what is causing my second problem, so I will just describe you what happened, maybe someone has an idea how to find out what's going on. The problem is: When I go to sleep I plug my phone in so that it charges up until morning. But in the morning the phone is off. That behaviour is reproducable (it happened to me for the last 3 days). BUT when I plug in the phone and wait until it charges to 100%, nothing happens. If I leave the phone for the night unplugged also nothing happens. Any idea what could cause such behaviour?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cronosmachine:
I'm surprise you said about policy, have you read the open source license? And I'm not I'm USA I'm fact, I'm from Singapore. Is that the purpose of making a custom ROM in first place? So every one in the world use it? Or I'm wrong?

Someone say Music.apk can make ringtone, does Music.apk can be controlled thru screen lock and notification scroll? Which one use the most? Make ringtone every second every minutes or make next track and back track your songs?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] el_navajita:
That only means that that Music app uses some third-party parts that are open source, so Google has to give credits. The application itself is not open source, and can be downloaded from Play Store only if you live in USA. As I said before, If I include it in the ROM, I simply break the law. The purpose of making a ROM is not providing people with propietary software that I'm not allowed to distribute. If you want the app, download it yourself and install it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] TheeWolf:
Hi,

I managed to solve the problem (benurb, you should read this).

All I had to do was go to settings -> apps -> All tab -> click on media storage -> click on clear data. Then, reboot. After that wait for a while.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kabracity:
No idea of what could cause it, but it's not a general issue. I leave my phone charging all night long 2-4 times per week and the phone doesn't turn off for me.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] twarwizard:
Hi, I installed this ROM a couple of days ago and so far it has been running smoothly. Best ICS ROM I have tried thus far.

I do have a feature request to make: Could you please include the toggle between 2G/3G in the notification bar as well?

I am sure I am not the only user who switches between the two quite frequently to save battery power when not using the phone. It could perhaps replace the data on/off switch which would probably be used less (in my opinion anyway)

Thanks for a great ROM though :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] vibowit:
Let me guess. You use Deep Idle?

I had similar issue with deep idle checked. So, it is kernel problem.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] RobertSand:
Happend here to.

but this rom has a script that automatic backup your efs folder to /sdcard/backup.

just copy the efs folder and past it in root and let it write over the existing folder.

then reboot, and you can enjoy this good rom :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] monkey450:
This rom is the only aosp bug free rom and should be a sticky.

this would help people that are looking for a standard rom.

if people want tweeks they can pick the many other roms.

someone should open a new thread in the Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps section for tweaks and mods on this rom if that is what they are after.

many thanks for keeping this rom clean
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] el_navajita:
Thank you very much. And, for those that want an even cleaner ROM, the next update will add an option in Settings -> Display which allows to disable the brightness slider in the notification bar.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jclarel:
I've flashed this ROM to my wife's SGS, and I can confirm that it's one of the best ROMS for SGS out there!

It's fast, smooth and very stable! I even updated her phone from RC4 to 1.0.2 without any issues at all... :D

Hats off to the dev! ;)

Switched out batteries before bed, when I got up for work I was at either 96 or 94 I forget. After a few hours at work it had dropped over 20%, so I checked it out and found this

Facebook I can maybe see but wifi using so much? Really odd. Apart from that, and a couple of instances of the phone rebooting when listening to music, been great. But a big dip in battery the last few days.

For your battery "problem", please read the FAQ, although it's obvious that the problem is the buggy Facebook app. For the reboots, please provide information. Have you changed the kernel? Have you changed governors? etc. etc.

Please understand that your complaint is not useful if you don't provide information for debugging.

Hi,

I'm not sure but there may be a problem with my battery.

Basically the phone manages to hold for about a day (not 24 hours), and I'm not using it that much, some whatsapp here and there, playing a bit, testing applications, mostly with WIFI and a little 3G.

I have attached a screenshot showing my battery stats in the settings - notice, of course, the screen, taking 59%. Also, you can see I've been using the phone for about an hour and a half (just finished my third cycle charge).

Something wrong here? Or is it normal?

Brightness, of course, set on automatic. Not using Semaphore automatic brightness.

Would appreciate help, thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gidimi01:
A little off topic

Been using it for some time now and so far its been running really smooth. Shockingly I have no idea how it can be improved so big thumbs up from me :D and may u surprise us with an even better version :rolleyes:

Random question, why did you name it ICS333? just curious :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jago25_98:
Suggestion:

Owing to the stupid and ridiculous comments and feedback from people how's about adding the following to the original post -

"Run the ROM for just 24 hours before you install anything to make sure it is working. This small inconvenience will save you a lot of hassle down the road"

...seeing as tons of people just install the ROM and then immediately install a ton of buggy apps like Facebook with wakelocks spewing all over the place, and then can't tell the difference between the ROM and other variables.

TheeWolf:

Check out the 700 page BetterBatteryStats thread for more detail (I've read up to page 300 so far...!) Personally I turn off auto brightness as the sensor for it puts a hit on the battery. Also I disable screen sounds and reduce the vibration a bit. Then I have to keep an eye on apps because every single one can shaft a battery with poor coding. Usually it's sync related things. Eventually batteries die in which case it's time for a quality branded replacement rather than a chinese lie. The main thing is apps though because the Dalvik they're running in let's them do whatever they want with wakelocks. Twitter, Facebook, HandcentSMS are 3 very common suspects. Other apps are harder to spot I'm afraid. It's best to do all this before doing stuff like adding a plain black background etc. Media server can be sped up by adding .nomedia to various directories that don't need scanning.

My personal view is that all this battery stuff is a screw up from Google for not providing the environment to handle poorly coded apps which would be better than the iPhone approach of just disallowing everything.

All this is not specific to this ROM though so it shouldn't be here. In general there's more things to go wrong on ICS with battery too, more features that can screw up.

Thread getting long again. I'm going to try to keep up and repost the questions that are coming up again and again.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] codo27:
Upon first installing the ROM last week I had one charge that was just about 40 minutes short of a full 48 hours. I've not really changed anything, installed anything new, or changed settings. I was previously running Stock+ ICS RC4 V2, and changed over to your ROM last week as I said, following the instructions given. I'm using the ondemand governor which I think was the default one, but it was my preference on Stock+/Onecosmic as well. But again, I haven't changed anything since first setting it up.

As for the reboots, its just happened a few times playing music using the default app, the only thing I can think of is a conflict with last.fm which scrobbles my plays.

German (Deutsch) for "change battery style":

"Batteriestil ändern" (I'd choose this one, the shorter, the better)

or better (better in this case means "more correct", however too long I assume):

"Aussehen des Batteriesymbols verändern"

;) nice ROM, I did not encounter any errors so far :)

Edit: Three _tiny_ suggestions:

1. You could try to exclude "Galaxy S Settings" from the app-drawer and integrate it directly into the settings, as it is in CM9 ;)

2. If possible, could you include Google Mail? In some countries (namely, Germany) it is not possible to download GMail from the Play Store (without "hacking" it)...

3. The bootanimation does not look very good. Could you try to "sharpen" it a bit?

none of these are dealbreakers for me, but I really do not have anything else to suggest :D

Why is GMAIL not available in Germany, surely you have GMAIL on the PC??
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] el_navajita:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] el_navajita:
1. I don't like the way this menu is integrated in CM9. It seems that all the options that you don't know where to add them, you put them mixed in the same menu entry. I thought about this since the beginning, and what I want to do is adding options mainly to the Display settings menu, but in an unobstrusive way. It will be addressed in future releases.

2. The maintainers of the gapps package decided to remove GMail from gapps. Unfortunately I'm not responsible for gapps and I'm not allowed to distribute GMail with the ROM.

3. The solution isn't sharpening the image, those sharpened bootanimations that are available out there introduce distortions in the corners of the squares. What would really "fix" this is getting a bootanimation with real 800x480 resolution, but even the stock Nexus S has a 533x320 bootanimation. Anyway, bootanimation will be replaced with a custom one in feature releases.
