First off, thanks for all the hard work.

My concerns are :

1) The wi-fi signal is very weak but works

2) My battery life is draining fairly quickly on standby. It went from full charge down to 30% over night and says android OS is using more than 50% of the battery. Is this an issue due to flash? I flashed over a blue CWM, wiped system & data before doing so.

Just wondering if anyone knew if this would work on our phone to help the facebook sync.

Thanks for any help.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] sutexibunsu:
I've had similar issues, which I think are mostly due to the WIP nature of the ROM. Some tips:

1. Turn off whatever doesn't need to be on (wifi, bluetooth, sync)

2. In Settings > Performance > Processor, set CPU governor to "Conservative" or "Powersave"

3. Switch 3G off

4. Plug your phone in whenever you can

5. If all else fails, the 2,300 mA battery is very nice

At least, that's been my observations. Let me know if that helps.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bhundven:
This is kinda off-topic.

Considering that the moderators have changed, the styles of dealing with issues may be different.

Sixstringsg and TRusselo are both very awesome and talented moderators and developers.

I'm sure they know what is right and what should be done.

I think the real problem isn't the phone or the moderators. The real problem is that this phone is still very price competitive with the newer phones that are on T-Mobile. Meaning you can get this phone for free with a new T-Mobile account.

The last time I went to tmo before I split for AT&T, I asked them why T-Mobile doesn't get the good phones. The (nameless for job security) person behind the counter told me that T-Mobile's clientele cannot typically afford the more expensive phones, so they just do not sell them.

So when Mom and Dad make the, I'll say, oh so wise decision to buy their kids phones, they get this one or one of the other cheap T-Mobile phones.

It really does explain why we have so many kids in our forum.

It's really not the moderators jobs to babysit, and I do not expect them to.

What really needs to happen is that these kids need to realize that this is a developer forum (or at least it was when I joined), not a user forum or support group.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] talbachi:
I have searched this thread and have not seen this issue- Has anybody else tried using a third party keyboard? i tried on cm7 and had the same issue, would work for a min on the new keyboard and then it would switch back to the default keyboard no matter what you did. Not a big deal but i just seem to hit the back button too often when i type a space with the default keyboard.

Edit: I figured it out. I was using an old version of the keyboard that was not cm compatible
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Fluidification:
@ talbachi, I haven't had that issue. Have you wiped data, or system coming from cm7? You could also gremlin remove.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] johnadelic:
Just wanted to say that I love the rom and have had no issues so far. I am curious to see what kind of battery life users of cm9 are getting. I usually. Dead from 7am-9pm.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hechoen:
I was getting better than that. I used my phone as an MP3 player for over 12 hours and still had 50% left. Get cpu spy from the market and check if your phone is going into deep sleep or not.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Fluidification:
I switched back to this from AOKP, and my head feels that this is a lot smoother.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] falcons2:
Ya I'm thinking the same thing
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] HolyGhostBoy1:
im loving this rom and this theme Purple Kush!:D
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Fluidification:
OK, so, cm9 consumes about 30 mb less /data storage than aokp. With all SD compatible apps moved to SD, I have about 219 mb free. I had 180mb free on aokp despite having the exact same data setup.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] h.mirken:
Pretty much working fine. Although I have had to adjust the volume again for other calls. But it works.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] raphifix:
Great work guys! I have just a tiny problem. It seems that whenever I plug my phone into my computer, the phone freezes and reboots. However, when it gets back to the home screen, the phone recognizes that it's plugged in and operates like normal. Any help would be appreciated. :)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Shortbus-Driver:
Wipe,wipe,wipe,and reflash

Carl
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] h.mirken:
Well, probably a stupid question, but here goes anyway.

I'm currently running cm9 rc2. I would like to get back to Raver's Unnamed, but I cannot flash it through blue CWM. I have tried using ODIN to get back red CWM back but no luck. I have scoured the forums but nothing is working so far. Unnamed is fast, stable and has unreal battery life.

Any ideas to get there?

Thanks.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] codealarms:
I've had some random reboots. I set a logcat *:W and got a reboot shortly thereafter, don't know what I'm looking for to see if I got it, but if there's a string I should run I can do that and report back with a better logcat. Only thing I've done differently is flashed the kg4 modem to give that a test drive for a couple of days.

Slightly unrelated I'm getting a ghost vm, clearing data on the phone kills it, but returns on reboot. Guess I'm also using the modded VVM apk from the cm9 thread.

Let me know if you want anything else or if I can help.

Thanks again for all of your hard work.

audio fixins

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/14764513/boot.img

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/14764513/bcm4329.ko

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/14764513/audio.primary.s5pc110.so

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/14764513/Settings.apk

I need someone to test the above files for any possible audio issues. I reworked the audio drivers a little, and need to know whether or not I broke incoming call ringer (or anything else) and whether or not audio via car/desk docks works.

Flash the boot.img with heimdall (kernel/zImage slot), push bcm4329.ko to /system/lib/modules (so wifi doesn't break), push audio.primary.s5pc110 to /system/lib/hw, and push Settings.apk to /system/app, then reboot.

To use dock audio, you have to enable it in the settings menu after pushing the above apk.

Please let me know any audio issues present after using the above files.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] burble56:
I just recently installed CM9. Everything is working fine, however my mobile data is not working. I can call, sms but cannot use T Mobiles data network. The wifi however is working. Should I flash CM9 again? Internet is very crucial for my work, so a fast reply would be more than welcomed. Thank You
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] m4xm4n:
Make sure mobile data is enabled under Settings -> Data Usage

If it is enabled and you're still having issues, reflash CM9.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] gabrielshaste:
I wanted to wait at least a day before posting.... running smooth as butter, everything works (WiFi still weak), no force closes, no errors. I had VB before this. All I did was format and flash... loving it!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Shortbus-Driver:
I ran the first vrs (24) for 2 days and am now 2 days on the the 3rd vrs (26) and have absolutely no problems to mention since i don't care about ffc.

Only thing is battery drain (i average 4-5 hrs on a battery) that I can mention but that I think is becuz ever since I flashed CM9 I can't put the damn thing down....I have 5 batteries so lol I don't care.

Great job !!!

I know this doesnt belong here but what can I say.....I see so much BS in here that I feel you should get some positive feed back as well as hitting the thanks button.

So...Brian you were right about pooping myself :-D

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] burble56:
Reflashed CM9, still getting no mobile data. I'm only getting 2g, no 4g or 3g. I'm assuming everyone else has 4g/3g working for them? I really don't know what's wrong. Do you think the problem persists with my phone or CM9?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Shortbus-Driver:
Burble56 did you check ...system settings>data usage>more>mobile networks and make sure the "Use 2g networks only" is unchecked?

Carl
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] burble56:
Yes I have, I just reflashed CM9 for the fourth time this morning. Data seems to be working now, however I'm only receiving an H instead of the usual 4g or 3g icons. Data speeds are noticeably much slower than before, and I can barely get a data connection going. The network type displayed in settings is showing me HSDPA:9. Is that 4g? Should I install a modem?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] ipaq_101:
You are right Carl...

Hey stop being so damn demanding...this a Q&A thread, not a request thread.

You just got ICS, what do you want next, Jelly Bean?

The developers will work on whatever they want when they want. If you aren't contributing in anyway then you don't have a right to ask, just a right to enjoy their work.

Geez, some people.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Shortbus-Driver:
Yea you will see an H for 4g

Carl
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jt1134:
no

that's pretty vague? can you give specific details on what I asked in the post where I linked the new files? does dock audio work? does incoming call ringer still work? "running stable" means nothing.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] burble56:
Thanks goes to everyone who helped me get my data connected. However, the internet speeds are tremendously slow, almost comparable to 2g. Just searching for apps on the market will take at least 3 minutes and sometimes the connection just times out. Using wifi I have no issues, but when I'm connected to my data network, it's almost impossible to use.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Shortbus-Driver:
Try pulling battery and sim card and let sit for a few minutes then put them back in ,and try fix permissions in recovery....if that fails ya.....idk what to tell ya

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eollie:
If you are having battery drain search for bettery battery stats here on xda and install it. Then check for partial wakelocks. If you see anything that looks odd like a app or service like google backup keeping the battery partially awake post it here.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] m4xm4n:
Yes. Anything over category 8 (7.2Mbps downlink) is considered "4G". See here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HSDPA#User_Equipment_.28UE.29_categories). The Samsung Galaxy S 4G is capable of category 14 downlink speeds (21.1Mbps).

The reason there isn't a "4G" icon is that 4G is a marketing term that Samsung and T-Mobile use to describe HSPA+(HSDPA category 14). Upstream Android uses the H icon for HSPA+ to identify the technology used as there isn't a final "4G" definition from the 3GPP and HSPA+ would certainly not meet it anyway.

When the icon is 3G it means the phone is utilizing plain UMTS without the HSPA+ extension meaning that speeds top out at category 8, I believe. It may be lower, I'm a little unclear as to what category is possible with plain UMTS. Phones such as the Galaxy S (not 4G) support HSDPA category 8 (7.2Mbps downlink) but are not considered 4G. I don't have one of these phones, so I cannot say whether or not they get the "H" icon. Most of the time, I see UMTS:3 meaning that speeds top out at 1.8Mbps.

Most of the time, however, you'll probably only ever have access over HSPA (not +) because of T-Mobile's lagging infrastructure to roll out full 21.1 Mbps category 14. So unless you live in L.A. or N.Y. or something, expect to top out at around category 10 or 13 (if you're really lucky).

Additionally, it seems that HSPA modes are only used when the phone is actively using data. We're hoping this is because Samsung's radio interface layer (RIL) is trying to save battery and not because we messed something up.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] ken120:
flashed and used for 2 days..the ROM was GREAT and run so smooth except the wifi signal..so far nothing happen except sometimes the phone will freeze and cause reboot (maybe overheating? ):confused::confused:

battery performance was great since it can lasts for 8~9 hours in heavy usage mode ..:laugh::laugh:

other than that, have anyone facing the mobile data usage monitoring window not working?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bhundven:
If you searched this thread and the op of the development thread, you'd read me saying that wifi signal sucks and I'm working on it, and we are getting reboot because of 1 or 2 reasons. 1 could be wakelocks, 2 could be power management issues. I've seen one last_kmsg from AOKP where suspend failed because the cypress keyboard driver didn't suspend. That would be a power management issue.

The mobile data usage monitoring doesn't work because we have a gingerbread kernel. Not an ICS kernel, so we lack the xt_qtauid netfilter module that provides the network statistics interface. I tried to backport it but it depends on other changes to the core of the network stack.

So I can either spend a lot of time making that work, or I can continue to port us to the aries kernel and get us a real ics kernel.

General Announcement​

From here on out, if you say you have a problem and you do not provide a log, I will IGNORE YOU. We've spoke about logs on the CM7 thead, so do not ask how to get logs. There is plenty of documentation in the general, q&a, and developer forums. There is this awesome feature of XDA callled SEARCH. There is also an ADVANCED SEARCH feature. Use it!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] ken120:
Thanks for the info on the first two question.

Yet since i'm newbie here and due to my limited time for me to sit in front of my computer because of work, i had try my best to do research and read the instruction in the general and q&a section and do searching in this forum. Still need some time on it. And finally thanks for your advice :D:D

sorry for my bad english..
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bhundven:
Cool, no problem. I was making more of a general announcement. Not pointing the second part of my response at you specifically.

People keep complaining about things not working properly, but I have no logs to figure out why.

People run different applications and mods that bring different rom bugs out of hiding.

I think your english is fine. :highfive:
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] m4xm4n:
Addition to Bryan's Note:

Bryan tells me that we also have lives (I know right? I was shocked) so if you report some sort of bug give us some time to fix it. We're all doing lots of stuff and I'm forgetting to sleep and eat food as it is. There's three or four us working on stuff and it may not be the bug you want fixed or the feature you want added. We are only a few gentleman with differing areas of interest, meaning some issues won't be tackled as soon as others.

TLDR; DAMN BABY BE COOL. Chill yo dill.

Don't make me make a wall of shame thread with your name in it.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FaelSidhe:
First, Great ROM, thank you.

I was wondering since it wasn't mentioned, that since ROM Mangler is included is it a different, usable version? Or if not is it OK to just disable?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eollie:
Disable it Rom Mangler will not be used. It is just included in the gapps.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Shortbus-Driver:
I went into build.prop and changed

ro.ril.gprsclass=12 to =10

ro.ril.hsxpa=2 to =1

And that did seem to speed up data and GPS lock quite a bit.

Also you must reboot at least once for changes to take affect,its recommended that you reboot twice

Carl
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bhundven:
Actually, Its not a part of gapps, it's a part of the rom.

Don't use it though. We don't have rom manager support, and I don't foresee support for it in the future. Just use goo manager.

Soon, we'll have downloads for cm7 and cm9 in goo manager.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] HB66:
So what is the difference and benefits to cm9 vs aokp? both 4.04 thx

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] HB66:

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bhundven:
Indeed!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] m4xm4n:
No it didn't.

Changing the ro.ril.gprsclass to 10 would only make GPRS/EDGE slower. Changing ro.ril.hsxpa to 1 would just disable HSUPA.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Shortbus-Driver:
Hmm don't seem slower but I'm not gonna argue with ya.

Could just be my imagination....but if my imagination says my phones connection and GPS locks faster now I'll stick with it for a few days and make sure ....I am a Gemini after all.

Edit:

I'm sorry but my hsupa has not been disabled or crippled....I'm uploading files and videos just fine.....I just uploaded a video to my YouTube account just to make sure.

I also tried setting at 3 and didn't notice any difference.

I'm not looking to get an argument goin just pointing out that hsupa is working fine

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] MightySoul97:
Yeah dude, and mine could use twice the RAM it has now. Could you just add a RAM upgrade slot next to my SD slot?

Also, the people up the street gave their house back to the bank, so they gave us their deck. can you get that put in? Between the back door and the pool would be fine, but we need it level with the back door so we can build off of it and cover the whole concrete slab when we get paid next. There's a post-hole digger in the garage, if that makes it easier. You'll just need to buy some 4x4's and a few bags of concrete. After you get my deck erected, there are a few dishes in the sink and a few loads of laundry you could throw in.... I already took the trash out, so you don't have to worry about that or anything. :laugh: :cool: :p

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] sutexibunsu:
If you have a stock battery, this is actually very good battery life for this ROM. Personally, I've averaged about a day on the 2,300 mA battery with light use and some very minor tweaks (edge only, 'Conservative' CPU governor). If you want/need better battery life, though, there's basically two options:

* Get a bigger battery

* Go back to a stock-based GB ROM
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] 3rdman:
I think I'll go for the bigger battery...I love this rom way too much to go back! :P

I've averaged 2-3 days on the cm7 rom. This one, I'm not sure what I did wrong but it dropped 80% over the course of a night. I checked the battery settings and 80% of it was using by 'Android OS' with 'Keep Awake' being the number of hours I was sleeping.

Q ob OC

Overall I have been loving the CM9 release...

Only issue I have is I haven't been able to run any OC software on it.

When I run Tegrak I get:

Failed to run insmod!

<0x7f050002>

err1 code=2

<0x7f050003>

err1 code=2

On the built in system settings there is the performance option but the max CPU frequency on the list is 1000 MHz... I miss running N64oid at 1.5 GHz but love the wii remote ability of the cyanogenmods...

I also had the same issue with CM7... Is there anyway to have tegrak working on a CyanogenMod? Is it working for anyone else?
