I managed to replicate the unresponsive keyboard issue. I hope the logacat got it. I'm on the latest aokp rom using stock cm9 rc1 SMS because it has the ability to enter a new line. I hope it helps.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
So this isn't only an issue with the stock AOKP sms app? Yeah it seems to be an issue when you unlock the phone if it applies to other SMS apps.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jrosetto:
Been having some serious GPS issues the last couple of days. I am on the latest build of AOKP and my GPS will not lock on at all. I actually left it sit for 30 minutes with a route and it kept me in the same spot the whole time. I've flashed all 3 modems for ICS and nothing changed. I also cleared the GPS cache but didn't seem to do anything as well. The other day I did drop the phone... Is it possible I damaged just the GPS and nothing else? Everything with the phone works fine except the GPS. I've also tried different ROMS. CM9, AOKP, Gremlin Remover --> Gingerbread.

Any thoughts or suggestions greatly appreciated as the GPS is mainly what I use this phone for.

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] gs_0523:
I'm not sure if it happens on the stock aokp SMS app since I've never used it. I always install the cm9 SMS app after I flash the new aokp builds. Also, if anyone trying tries to replicate it on stock aokp SMS app Try sending yourself a text, then pressing the back button to close your keyboard but leaving the SMS app open and then locking your phone until you get the text from yourself and then unlock your phone. That's how I got it.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] ReelFiles:
My GPS has been doing that on all CM9 based ROMs I tried; AOKP (each build), Paranoid Android 1.5 and CM9 RC1 (didn't try RC2 since I fell in love with AOKP). Sometimes it will lock on after a few minutes other times, not at all. 2 weeks ago I tried using the walking navigation when I was in NYC for a concert and it couldn't figure out the compass at all; it kept pointing north no matter which way I was headed.

Happens on the stock AOKP SMS app too.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jrosetto:
Ya, I think I'm going to go back to Gingerbread. Everything seems to work fine with it. Maybe in the future I can switch over.

When I try ssh/scp, it complains that the entropy source is blocked.

localhost ~ # ssh <user>@<host>

ssh: Warning: Reading the random source seems to have blocked.

If you experience problems, you probably need to find a better entropy source.​

Since this is a crypto request for randomness, /dev/random appears to be the "right" choice under Linux.

/dev/random should be suitable for uses that need very high quality randomness such

as one-time pad or key generation. ​

However, /dev/random blocks with a 128-byte read:

localhost ~ # dd if=/dev/random of=/sdcard/delete.me bs=128 count=1

^C0+0 records in

0+0 records out

0 bytes transferred in 3.089 secs (0 bytes/sec)

localhost ~ # dd if=/dev/urandom of=/sdcard/delete.me bs=128 count=1

1+0 records in

1+0 records out

128 bytes transferred in 0.002 secs (64000 bytes/sec)​

As a work-around

localhost ~ # cd /dev

localhost dev # ln -sf urandom random​

will allow you to ssh/scp. However, the "weakly random" nature of /dev/urandom may compromise the security of the connection.

Edit -- looks like we could use more entropy sources

localhost random # cat poolsize

4096

localhost random # cat entropy_avail

70​

Apparently an issue with at least one other ROM: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1018574

Discussion about Android and entropy: https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/android-security-discuss/BM4t_DhbCeQ

Paper driving that discussion available at: https://factorable.net/paper.html -- One interesting statement is that the Linux /dev/random generator reports on "recent" entropy inputs, and might understate the amount of entropy in the pool.

As others have noted, Linux is very conservative at crediting randomness added to the entropy pool [23], and random further insists on using freshly collected randomness that has not already been mixed into the output PRNG. The blocking behavior means that applications that read from random can hang unpredictably, and, in a headless device without human input or disk entropy, there may never be enough input for a read to complete.​
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
That's not good... :/.

I guess this might have something to do with libcrypto that thomas and DJ were asking about the other day. I haven't really looked into it, but it'll be worth asking bryan about this on how to enable it in the kernel since I don't know how.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
Try going back to BML using lumin's guide. Once you have a custom kernel installed flash this rom straight from BML CWM.

Custom lockscreen? Do you have facelock enabled? When did the phone reboot?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Manumission:
No custom lockscreen - just the 5-option lockscreen that comes with the room. I did make the .forcefaceunlock file, but since it doesn't work very well, I haven't been using it. I wasn't really using the phone at the time - as I can recall, I had just checked the phone to see if I had any messages, then put it down. I caught the softkey button lights go on, and thought I had a message, but it tuned out to be the reboot.

When apollo is playing music my phone will not ring and people who have called me have said it rings 2-3 times then goes to v-mail. It doesn't show I have a missed call either. Don't know if its in the logs but ill add it. Around 2:30 they tried calling. http://pastebin.com/cSPcKXjT
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
The incoming call didn't even get logged at around 2:30. All I see is a bunch of messages from Apollo allocating resources for playing your music.

Are you sure Apollo is causing this? Can you try to verify this by calling yourself and testing out another music player?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] tichs:
Hi Fb I have notice a bug on the phone.apk sometimes after one use it starts force closing for no reason. Also sometimes the ROM gets kind of slow and choppy, fixinf permissions helps a bit but still it somwhat choppy maybe because it has not many tweaks regarding I\O and CPU functions. I asked Derteufel to help port it's devil kernel to the sgs4g, the vibrant captivate and galaxy s i9000 has it. He says it's kind of diffcult to port which I understand but most certainly would make this device much better.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Rebel_X:
lately, my phone suffers from random reboots. Most of them they happen when I am trying to install or update an app from the market. And today, the phone just shut itself down without any warning.

I used alogcat to export the errors if that helps. here it is: http://pastebin.com/qUwijUrX

It seems either Activity Manager or AdwLauncher Ex is the culprit.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
If your phone soft reboots then a location can tell us something. If it's a hard reboot you'll need to send us the /proc/last_kmsg file also

EDIT

Not location, logcat. Autocorrect :D
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Rebel_X:
Here is a log and last_kmsg taken after a reboot. Hope that helps.

Excuse my ignorance but I am not really sure what do you mean by *location*?

Edit: a soft reboot happened after I was trying change my ringtone from sound settings then I got and replied to a message using heywire app, after I tried to hit back to sound settings the phone soft rebooted to boot animation, but it was quick. I don't think it is reproducible

If I tried to do that again, but describing the situation before the reboot might help!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
I meant logcat not location. My phone's keyboard decided that it was correct. Thanks for the logs. I'll look into it.

I'm having a problem with the camera when it's set to focus backwards. The edge on one side has green bars.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] StonedYoda:
Pull a logcat for this issue. It helps the devs locate the source of the problem rather than go thru all the code. Also, did you restore data with Titanium Backup? System apps can be a bit wonky when you go from a different ROM and use system data from previous ROM. Try also clearing your dalvik cache and rebooting.

Devs, sorry if I posted this in the wrong place or if it's incorrect info somehow.

Had a chance to update. This build is really smooth and stable. Excellent work!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Core618:
Observations after a couple of days use -

Not sure why the changes, since, unless I missed something this is the same kernel we have been using -

Wi-Fi is working, but barely. It has been fine for me through all the other builds.

GPS still not connecting

Battery life was 'okay' before this build for me, now, not so good. Average use (for me) today, and I've been on battery 3 hours 13 minutes... battery is down to 64%

Previous builds I would get to the end of my workday and still be at 35%. That's still 7 hours from now, but at this rate my battery will be dead by lunchtime.

If there's something I can provide that would help diagnose, let me know please. I've been mostly off the forums for the past month, so I have a lot of reading to catch up on, and maybe all this is addressed someplace already... but I wanted to put it out there just in case.

EDIT:Just found mention in the Q&A thread tha the rom should have the kg4 modem, looks like I have the kj6. Flashing kg4 to see if that helps some of my issues.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] shotchacokov:
Did you update or flash it from a fresh wipe? I always do a fresh wipe then install. One thing I did was open the gallery and let it rebuild all of the thumbnails, then let it find all of my media. If not it seemed to do a poor job of those tasks on its own and seemed to eat the battery (Lots of folks had issues with media server eating up juice) and this stopped all of that. I have been on battery for 4.5 hours and have 76% still.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] galets:
I am on milestone6.03 build, and I observe the similar usage levels. That's pretty bad actually! Batteries don't last worth a crap.

Is it a known issue specifically with ICS, because kernel source is missing, or that's how this phone is in general on any build?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] shotchacokov:
I would do a wipe and fresh install of build 4. I would also recommend the Hefe Kernel with it.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Manumission:
Had a random reboot - log, as usual, is attached. Setup is AOKP M6B4, with Hefe 0.8.0 kernel. I was using both Google Maps and Navigation at the time. GPS seemed to be having problems with locking in as well, but that may have been because I was in a moving car in a somewhat wooded area.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Theraze:
I had 3 random reboots earlier today while using AOKPM6B4 with Hefe 0.8.1, but then I booted to recovery, wiped Dalvik and Cache, and Fixed permissions. No more reboots since then.

Start with that if you haven't yet?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Manumission:
Thanks - I'm well aware of wiping caches and fixing permissions, and I've done that. Did you see anything in the log that might be of note?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Theraze:
Well, as you've probably glanced, it's complaining about not having permission to access location information. Appears, from my inexperienced eye:

as the actual internal phone bits having lost permission to access cell-location. I'd say it looks like your last Fix permissions didn't take.

Better Camera?

Hello All,

Does anyone know of a modded camera i can replace the one in this rom with? i get very poor performance with it. Thanks.

---------- Post added at 10:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:21 AM ----------

Hi FB,

Thanks for the great work. I downloaded the 6.05 upgrade via Goomanager last night and it soft bricked my phone. I was coming from 6.04 with Antonx Kernel. p.s., I miss the automatic installation of my apps :). How did you do that in the original version? Okay, back to the topic. I need your expert advice.

So, when i upgraded from 6.03 to 6.04, everything got wiped. This time from 6.04 to 6.05 it soft bricked. THEN, when i tried to reinstall, i couldn't even get into recovery. So....i tried to Heimdall one click, and it got stuck.

If you remember (and you might not, because i am down here, and you are up there), i had this problem in all my previous flashes after using Heimdall. I always had to Odin using UVKG4 and then reuse Heimdall, then i could flash. This seemed fixed after i used Gremlin remover, but this time around Gremlin remover didn't recognize my phone. I was finally able to Odin, then One click with Ollie's one click, and upgrade to 6.05, but i want to avoid this problem in the future.

To summarize, is there something i didn't try that i could to get rid of whatever is causing these problems?

Thanks in advance.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] galets:
Is there a reason why the build does not have fuse support in kernel? All AOKP builds seem to have encryption not working, and the only way I could find so far to get some sort of encryption is via EncFS, which requires fuse to be compiled into a kernel.

Also: I am trying to get to the source code. It's been advised to use acidify to do so, but it doesn't work (or I am doing something wrong). Is the source code somewhere on github for me to grab? **EDIT:** I think I got acidify finally working, hopefully I'll build kernel now.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
More crap to support and to haul around for everyone, especially for something as niche as fuse. You're already on the the track to resolution yourself, it sounds like.

Once we're on Aries, one of my low-priority goals is to kill a lot of the driver cruft in the kernel.

What kind of encryption are you looking for that the current kernel doesn't seem to support?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] galets:
For some reason, built-in encryption does not work on AOKP at all, not only on SGS4G, but on the other devices as well.

I just want to be able to encrypt device, at least parts of it. I carry so much totally confidential information on my phone... If I lose it, it would be a major issue. I figured, if I could at least encrypt folders for individual apps in /data/data, as well as pieces of /sdcard (DCIM and such), it would already be a major privacy improvement.

Could you maybe enable stuff like fuse, cifs and such as kernel modules? This way they will not be loaded normally, but if someone actually wants them, they can easily enable.

Also... maybe you could point me in a right direction. I wanted to write an app that would prompt me for EncFS password, but it doesn't look like it is possible to do so with a regular android app written in java. Do you know how to write a system, console app in Android which would show GUI? I tried asking on stackoverflow, but noone seems to have an idea. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/...tput-data-to-console-script/12541577#12541577
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
I've started a Q&A thread on native encryption to see if anyone else has ideas. It's really more generic question, it seems.

You should be able to write a Java app that prompts for a password. You can also write the JNI that will let Java and C/C++ (or what have you) interact.

Unfortunately, the "Bionic" library for Android doesn't include getpass() in any reasonable way. You can add the following from GNU libc source, if you need it (and your code's license is compatible with GNU) to be able to call getpass()

getdelim.c getline.c getpass.c unlocked-io.h

getdelim.h getline.h getpass.h
