Those patches aren't actually for our phone. Bbq log doesn't always sort them out correctly. Those patches are for another kernel. There haven't been any changes since 7/23. TC have been working on JB...

I'm running the latest nightly with TDJ's Kernel. I keep getting a popup that says 'Cannot Find Your Location'. I don't have any location services on. Is there a certain stock app that's searching for my location causing this?

Edit: Sorry, disregard. Looks like it's an older weather widget that I no longer use that I must have restored. I simply uninstalled it and the pop up is gone.

You proved my point with your first paragraph.

"Non touch CWM has broken cache wipe ON THE T989!" (Not on my phone at least seeing as the tried and true methods of flashing serve me just well) NOT EVERY OTHER PHONE!! On most other phone these steps are completely unnecessary. And all it takes is you hitting the back button and entering any other phone dev section and checking the wipe procedure. Guarantee it will be as above and none of it will mention a cache wipe fix.

And its not that I'm indignant or any of what you said. The devs don't do this for us. They do it for themselves before anyone else and just so happen to share their work for 15 seconds of dev fame. The only thing I should be thankful for is the sharing of their work. They deserve a thanks and a donation. Doesn't mean I have to hold my tongue and kiss their asses like they're gods. If they did it for us they'd be charging for roms like bonsai team and a few other dev teams.

I have my point of view and yours and the rest of the t989 forum is the minority compared to the rest of xda.

Not to mention you STILL haven't provided hard evidence on your claims...

I'm done with this bud. Were cluttering up the thread with pointless banter.

What is this difference between the alpha5 and the nightlies?? If I want to flash one which one should I do and why?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] snguyen0730:
Alpha is what team chopsticks deem good enough for public release. Nightlies gives you the latest update but may still bugs
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] yoft1:
No one ever said this was a universal problem. Admittedly, I never explicitly stated that I was referring exclusively to the t989 but I assumed that, as we were in the t989 forum, that went without saying. Why would it matter if non touch worked perfectly on other phones? It doesn't on this phone, hence the cache wipe. Maybe I should include "I am referring to the t989" at the bottom of all my posts to aid the people that don't understand that fact.

As for proof, it was specifically stated in the OP of the cm9 thread (not just tdj, mind you) that if you use non touch cwm, cache wipe was an additional installation step. They have since removed it as of alpha 5 but like I said before, you can see the remnants of that fact on the first page of posts where one of the devs on the team state that touch cwm is a requirement else you would experience boot loops
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RushAOZ:
Dude if you stated it was specific to the t989 it wouldn't of gotten this far lol I didn't know this issue existed whatsoever. So you see where my argument came from. Now I see yours lol if I ever flash and run into unnecessary issues and the cache wipe fixes it, I'll personally find you and we can share a few pitchers ;)

Touchscreen bug

Sporadic loss of touchscreen input, seems to sometimes be limited to the homescreen, other times system wide. This is on 6/14. Solution has been to either hard shutoff using power button and restart, with one time having to remove battery.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] xsteven77x:
IMHO not ready for primetime. Shutdown/reboot is majorly jacked up. Lots of battery pulls when doing those functions. Call bug is a no-go. A phone needs to function as at least that - a phone (in my case anyways). Gonna give a it a few days to see if the showstopper bugs can be ironed out.

Something thats not gonna change but still drives me insane is how it flips the SDcards. It really jacks everything up when going from CM9 to another rom and vice versa.

That's all I do. I flash the nightly then flash TDJ'S Cache wipe script and reboot. Nothing is lost. Every 3rd time I format system, then flash ROM, then Gapps then the cache wipe script. But after you reboot everything is still intact. Takes all of 5 minutes seriously.

When we get a stable release I'll do a full wipe again, just to start fresh. Or when we get our first taste of Jelly Bean.

If things ever start to act up and a fresh flash doesn't help, that's always a good time for a full wipe. But that's been few and far between for me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DriftorX:
I came from Darkside Evo so I normally would always have to do a full wipe and than restore my apps and such when going to a new release. I just was not sure about the CM nightly. I would of certainly done a full wipe doing the stable releases of CM if i was to use the stable versions. But rather use the bleeding edge versions (nightly's).

My next question is: Is anyone having write issues to the internal sdcard when plugging it in usb to a computer where it writes extremely slow. I normally get about 10- 15MB/s write to the internal card from the computer when i was on Darkside Evo. With nightly 20120727 im only getting 1MB/s write to the internal card. Even writing to my external sd card is only getting 1MB/s write speed to it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Chochiwpg:
I always do a full, clean install each time I update to a new nightly. It's takes a little longer than just flashing over the previous build, but I want to make sure there are no conflicts with the older build already installed on my device. It really doesn't take too long to set everything back up again. You will be up and running in 30 mins, 45 mins tops.

I'm on 7/22 and for some reason if I enable GPS (Google location services and GPS satellites or else it won't lock) and use it, then turn it off, when I take my phone off the charger the next morning, GPS keeps my phone awake non stop until a reboot and just murders my battery.

Anyone else have this issue or care to try it out?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RikkKeith:
CM nightlies are the only builds I flash over without a full wipe. That's also the recommended way in the OP, if coming from a previous nightly.

To answer your second question; yes, the write speeds on CM9 are painfully slow when copying files from your computer to your device. I made a post about it a while ago. And for the time being, it looks like we're stuck with it. I think you can try to increase it with Rom Tool Box. I've just never tried.

That's it. No data will be lost.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RikkKeith:
I always have Google location services on. I really enjoy using some of the services that come along with always having it on. And you know, even with it on constantly, it doesn't put a big burden on my battery. And it doesn't keep my phone awake with it on all day either.

When you turn off GPS, do you turn off the location services too, or leave them enabled?

Why not just use recovery?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DriftorX:
I was just thinking it was me or something or like my hardware was going bad. My external sd is a 32gb class10 so i knew it was a fast card. But i can live with the slow speed and sacrifice that portion for a very good overall rom.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] punchemcface:
I turn them both off, mainly because I do whatever I can to save battery. That, and I only use navigation maybe once a day.

It's a minor inconvenience to reboot every single time if I want my phone to sleep, but I really don't see any other way around it.

Question, now that we have an official alpha of CM10, does that mean development on CM9 will slow or stop? I only ask because I love CM9 and it's so close to being 100% complete. Only issue right now is the bln lights and video records blurry but plays back crisp. Other than that everything works.

I am tempted to try CM10, but I want my first experience with JB to be a stable and flawless one. I know it's being worked on, but I think the kinks that still need to be worked out will take away from my experience of using JB. Again thanks TC for all your work. Peace.

Can't Turm On Wi-Fi

I'm wondering if anyone here has encountered this issue:

After flashing the latest nightly (0729), I encountered an endless Cyanogen logo upon boot. I eventually discovered that my recovery had somehow become borked (couldn't boot into it) so I flashed a fresh recovery in download mode using Odin and managed to successfully re-flash the latest nightly. The problem is that now I can't turn on wi-fi.The Screen message continually says "Turning Wi-Fi on..." but nothing ever happens. I tried a few earlier builds which I previously had working with the same result.

Has anyone encountered this and does anyone know of a fix?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Phateless:
7/29 works fine for me.

Step 1 is data wipe, step 2 is restore to stock to test and start over.

Very strange...

I have been using the nightly's since before RC1 and have loved CM9.

I use live.com for my e-mail and contacts and it has worked great. Ever since RC2 my contacts keep disappearing. Also when I go into e-mail it will be slightly delayed showing my mail and a message will flash on the screen and my e-mail looks like it is downloading the email it already downloaded. The message is too fast to read but it says something about a folder not being found. This usually coincides with my contacts will going away.

I can fix this by going into system - apps and clearing the data for contacts and contact storage. This will work for a few hours and then my contacts will go away again.

This started with RC 2. Since it started I did a full wipe with darkside super wipe and re-installed RC2. I also tried a full wide and install of the 7/29 nightly. It continued to happen after all of this. I use cwm 5.0.2.7 non touch for recovery.

Any help with this problem (other than recommending I use Gmail) would be appreciated.

Here is an issue I just encountered for the first time. My clock on my notification bar stopped or for lack of better words froze. My brothers T-Mobile vibrant does it frequently apparently, but this is the first I've seen it happen on my phone. The clock on the lock screen displays the correct time. I'm on cm9 7/27 recently I put on cm10 alpha team chopsticks but obviously I reverted back using a nandroid. I flashed both the darkside wipes before installing cm10 and I also flashed them before I restored my nandroid. Anyone have this happen or might have any solves?

Its nothing major and again I'm sorry if its been discussed and theres a solution but I havent found one, and while not really important its sort of a bummer because thats one of my favorite games to play on the phone.
