Tried with both the files, still no luck, it takes forever to get a fix... :(
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] bioniclizard:
Hum, I'm confused. Is the phone force closing a general issue or just me and the other guy that posted here a while ago?

The call still goes through, but there's silence for the first seconds and the phone doesn't recognize I'm in the middle of a call, I can't even hung up.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] hillbeast:
Well I don't have this issue myself and because of that it makes it very hard to debug it.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] z3c0:
with this build I didn't have any of those crashes to the boot screen yet, however yesterday there was a total freeze which I never encountered before (simply on the home screen, clock indicated that it must have happened 25mins ago while the screen stayed lit).

On the other hand I think some issues with the stock browser might be resolved here (it often stayed blank and had to be shut forcibly when you returned to it). I guess this stuff is related to the ongoing CM9 development. The browser has some visible new features now as well.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] bioniclizard:
Would this help?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] hillbeast:
It does. Thanks. I will figure out what it's telling me tomorrow when I'm not tired.

hey guys..

I have a question related to multiboot.

Can I get serenity to multiboot with ascendecy? So, I want to multiboot CM9 with Froyo... Thanks
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] m1trand1r:
yup...you can with g3mod 2.5...& u need system.img...of Serenity aswell;)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] max5800:
Ah... Too bad mark hasn't release system.img
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] m1trand1r:
suggestion for u, bro...: make a backup of ascendency in cwm(multiboot)....then flash Serenity cm9.....after it boots up with success....then again....boot in cwm(multiboot)...backup Serenity to cm9 slot....voila:)...now u can switch between froyo & cm9

...although you should know that multiosdata doesn't work properly with g3mod 2.5....you need to make 2 data backups...froyo & cm9....for restoring when u will switch....i hope this helps somehow:)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] nishant_713:
Reflashed the latest update, deleted the phone.odex and phone.apk. Pushed in the provided phone.apk. But still not able to make call. Contracts force closes. not even getting any signal... @hillbeast, is it a problem specific the i5801, cause you are not having such an issue. Can you please look into this before you release the next update...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] hillbeast:
Do you have a lock on your SIM card?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] nishant_713:
Nopes... Everyone is facing this phone.apk crash issue in the latest update... I think your galaxy 3 is special cause it ain't having such problem.. :p
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] hulkbuster92:
If you go to post number 310 one of the members has posted a fix on how to fix the phone.apk crashing and it does work
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] max5800:
One more question. I'm going to multiboot with ascendency and serenity. When I do fresh flash of serenity, do I have to go with tar and update.zip or update.zip only?

EDIT:

Rom was really nice and smooth, but had to go off it because phone couldn't get lock on network. I found it through scan but it was @ no service all the time.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] hillbeast:
Do you have a SIM PIN or is it the same issue others are facing on the latest build?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] max5800:
I can't tell about problems in latest build as I don't know what happened but I usually have pin on my card...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] hillbeast:
That would be why you had no signal. You need to disable your SIM PIN to use CM9. It's a known bug.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] max5800:
Disable it where? In serenity it was disabled... Or disable it before flashing serenity?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] hillbeast:
Disable it before flashing Serenity.

Boot.img

Hello,

I'm worried about boot.img present in your 12-6 update.zip - could it break my phone if anything goes wrong?

Thanks for reply.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] hillbeast:
That's not the bootloader. That's the kernel. It's just called 'boot.img' as that's the standard name for kernels.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] BFMSAND:
Someone can tell me whats not working ?

If i remind true then

-FM Radio

-Bluetooth

-Camera Preview

-Videos Like youtube and so

Are not working right ?

Does someone knows a app so that i can at least watch youtube videos ? and how does the performance is in this rom ? I tried AOKP Build 2 and 3, Cm9, and Kisadworx and the best from performance was kisadworx but yeah the only things i want is that if it gives someone knows an app for youtube videos watching and does calling, call answering and so work ? Cause in Aokp and othe roms it has some crashes or you cant hear the voice of the other when you calling, and sometimes you cant see the name only the number.

Hopefully i dont asked too much but would be very helpfull if someone can give me a good answer thanks :)

PS: Maybe i try the rom then
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Fikul:
Camera works without preview or still fc's ?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] twinky444:
Still fc..
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] achkap:
i ve been testing this rom for a couple of days now. and i am very impressed. the rom is very smooth and beautiful. many congratulations to the dev for the nice rom...

besides the known bugs (such as camera, phone.apk, pin code etc) i have to add:

1. contacts are very slow. when i try to open my phonebook it take forever to open a contact. and it hasn t got the option we are used to, such as to show only contacts with phones. and it is white...

2. i get randomly freezes with no obvious reason. i need to press the on off button to restart the phone.. these freezes are not so often

3. at lockscreen when i put shortcuts to e.g opera or other apps, these apps dont show. they are there because when i place the ring at some other place the app opens... but i can t see them

4. i have battery drain. not huge and not small. my battery lasts (new battery, with heavy use, 3g wifi always open and i am testing rather much). my battery lasts aound 8-9 hours

5. my system was 99,8% full. i had to uninstall some apps to free some space. i think is due to odex apps but it is a problem

6. i have some (not much) reboots due to memory.

and some good things.

gps locked at about 3-4 minutes without modifying anything.

i haven t tried data2sd but link2sd works very good.

as a conclusion i use it as my everyday rom and i am very satisfied..

very good job.

and a question.

can i use this theme or themes like this?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] raja4sure:
you can refer to my thread......

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1674025
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] nishant_713:
1. I don't face such serious lags in contacts.

2. Yeah but very rarely happens. I hardly faced that during over a month of use of serenity.

3. For the icons to appear on lockscreen, you must select a system icon (when you assign the shortcut, touch the icon and select system icons) and then they'll be shown on the lockscreen.

4. Sometime ago i posted my battery life on Serenity, its pretty good for me as compared to that of cm7. Well thats for me, don't know about others.

5. Yeah, internal space is low.

6. Hmm..

GPS locked for me too, about once or twice, but really took too long, and a clear sky view.

I think data2sd script is pre-installed as didn't have to use link2sd or s2e, and yet the apps were on sd-ext.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] srgudhka:

[Galaxy 3 Android Development] BFMSAND:
Can Somebody please answer me my questions i made here ?

Would be realy helpfull cause i cant find all when i look trough the thread and posts.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] hillbeast:
I will fix that in the next build.

* FM Radio works with some app. Can't remember the name, someone else will know.,

* Bluetooth doesn't work.

* Camera preview does not work

* Videos don't work.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] hulkbuster92:
To get FM Radio working you need to download a app called spirit fm and set it to the galaxy i9000 settings i think correct me if im wrong
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] bioniclizard:
Oh, ok, that makes sense. I'll try it, thank you :)

[Galaxy 3 Android Development] mohnishgs:
@hillbeast

won't you work on porting kernel 3.x?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] hillbeast:
Well would you be so kind as to tell me how you got it to work because since I downloaded the repo I have found myself fixing bugs non stop, and pretty obvious bugs at that. There are a million things wrong with it so I must be missing something else. When I compiled it for the SGS2 it worked flawlessly first time, but the Galaxy 3 repo is being a right pain.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] moole:
You should use ext2 for /system. It's the fastest and uses the least CPU time - meaning less battery. And since it's not being written on, there's no risk of corruption.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] hillbeast:
Good idea. I'm not a fan of EXT4 anyways, I've always used EXT2 on my data and cache.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Spitlebug:
Why is ICS so bulky? You'd think that there is some extraneous stuff in there that doesn't apply to our phone that can be removed? :confused:
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] hillbeast:
Well on the SGS2, it's 236MB with GApps installed, but that's the full Google Apps with Face Unlock and all that stuff there. Without it, it's 160MB. I'm thinking there is some crap in there that shouldn't be.

EDIT: And take into account the SGS2 also has to have HDPI and No-DPI textures and PNGs in there which are HUGE.

I will share the device folder with you by PM as it's not GIT. It's pleasure helping the legend. It would be great if you share me the steps to put my device folder in GIT. I am not familiar with GIT. Thanks.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] hillbeast:
Sure thing. I have made a few tweaks which will help everyone in the long run (still trying to iron out the kinks with them) such as inline kernel building which means a matching kernel is compiled at the same time and can be released together, and various other functions which make the devs life easier.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] cdesai:
I left this off due to lack of time, might wanna continue :)

https://github.com/chirayudesai/cd.initramfs-apollo

Only a few changes to copy the *.rcs and other files to $OUT and we'll have a perfect device

@pmanian

Open an account on github.com, and follow the steps to setup git, and then push the device

If you need help you can always ask here :)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] z3c0:
I'm not getting root either. There's a new option in CM9 under Settings -> Developer Options -> Root Access that allows you to specify whether apps and/or adb get to use root.

I tried all options (also with USB debugging on/off) and rebooting but nothing seemed to make a difference.

btw, the adb shell has full device access no matter how you configure the Root Access option. I guess if Root Access was turned off for adb, you shouldn't even be able to cd into /data/data etc.

Titanium Backup says it tried to call /system/xbin/su unsuccessfully.

As for gapps, I successfully installed the most recent ICS version from here by manually extracting the system folder to my /sd-ext and then symlinking the contents of each folder into the corresponding directories in /system. You just need to cd to each of the 4 folders (tts files are already the same) and do it like this:

cd /system/app

find /sd-ext/system/app -maxdepth 1 -type f -exec ln -s {} \;

In /system/app you should also rm Gallery2.* Provision.* QuickSearchBox.*

This may not be a suitable solution for everyone because you can't assume that an sd card is present (+ the ext-partition) but it'll do until /system loses a few pounds. I see some useless 10 MB in /system/media/video for an instance and maybe some odex files can go or some apks can be loaded off to /data/app.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Jason-EX:
The internal memory will increase, but the system space will decrease.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] hillbeast:
Got a bit more space in /system by telling it to make an update.zip (which is the format I wanted it in in the first place) with thanks to cdesai pointing out how to make a update.zip.

It's now got about 19MB free rather than 3MB. I will get more space in there by getting rid of more crap, like those video files in /system/media/video.

You may ask why an update.zip increases storage when it is not zipped on the system after installation, well the reason is most likely due to the fact that when it makes an update.zip, it zipaligns and optimises the APKs which frees up a bit more space. Sure I could deodex the ROM and save a bit more space but because this ROM is still extremely unstable and most likely will be flashed by people for like 10 minutes before they scream in terror and run back to ICSforG3s much MUCH better build, I'd rather not waste their time with waiting for the dalvik-cache to be built. Best to just let it be odexed and optimise size the old Kyorarom way: remove crap.

EDIT: I also have inline kernel building working 100% as well so every time the update.zip is generated, the latest kernel is packaged in there immediately, therefore the kernel has no name or branding, just 'G3MOD Test Version ###' (### being the build number). If you don't like G3MOD then you'll have to flash a different kernel after installing the ROM. If this inconveniences you then I apologise but G3MOD works nicely for me, the sources are right here and I can make changes to it where I see fit.

EDIT 2: Removing those video files saves another 10MB. It'll add up.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] cdesai:
Inherit config_mini_phone.mk (in device/samsung/apollo/cm.mk) instead of full_phone.mk and you'll have about 15 mb of more free space

Plus, that hack to kernel/samsung/apollo/init/version.c is real ugly, might wanna revert that to the default and then set LOCALVERSION in defconfig :)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] hillbeast:
Just changed to mini config and will see what difference it makes. As for the kernel change, it may be ugly but it works. No point changing something that works. It was something done by Dharam to make life easier for the team when a lot more people were working on G3MOD, but now that only moikop and I are doing it, it's not so much of an issue.

Also, Superuser is working for me on the latest build. Either I fixed it, or it wasn't broken for me... Weird.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] cdesai:
Yea, nothing big.

@those with the su issue, grab the latest su zip from http://androidsu.com/ , and flash it in recovery

Link : http://downloads.androidsu.com/superuser/Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] moole:
Do you have the Phone FC problem in the latest build?

Wouldn't mind an update.zip either way, it's fun testing this. :)

right now my biggest problem is that when i reboot my phone it stack at boot (lockscreen) and i have to turn it off and on again. if i unlock it before it gets stuck at the homescreen while it tries to load the widgets. it has been about 15 minutes and is loading still and sometimes it just get stuck or it reboots by itself. is it because of the many apps that i have installed or there is something else? or is it the link2sd i am using that is slow and that is that gets the phone stucked?

the funny thing is that when it loads everything works very good.

is there any other kernel i can try. maybe a fugumod kernel because my phone "likes" fugumod and doesn t like "g3mod" as i can recall from froyo...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] hillbeast:
I would plug the phone in when it appears to be stuck and see if its detected. If not the the phone has crashed. If it does then try getting logs from logcat. You can use QtADB to do that.

Is this ROM Good Enough? I mean Laggy?

Hum, this ROM works well but not all the time. The phone sometimes becomes unresponsive or very (VERY) slow. All I can do is wait, I don't know how to fix it. It also gets stuck on the lock screen, sometimes, when wifi fails.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] z3c0:
You can activate an option in system settings -> CyanogenMod -> lockscreen settings so that the lockscreen gets unlocked by pressing the menu key.

The touchscreen will still be unresponsive for a while but at least the lockscreen will be out of the way. Recently it seemed to me that if I long-pressed home after unlocking the screen that way and tried to move / tap the icons that appeared in the vertical task switcher, the touchscreen came back to life much quicker. Not entirely sure yet, but it seemed to work the last 2 times.

Btw the issue has already been present in various cm7 ROMs so perhaps it's related to how Samsung's 2.6 kernel works with non-Froyo ROMs.
