I too do not have a ringtone when the phone is called. All other tones like gmail, sms, tapatalk, calendar, and other tones seem to work. Here is the log I picked up from a fresh boot and tried calling my phone.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mierkat09:
So the only bugs so far are the ringer and problems installing from twrp?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] JAWheat411:
Screwed up...my IMEI works fine on stock.......works fine on CM7. But when I upgrade to CM9 it becomes a jumbled mess and doesn't work. (Not showing 0's but scrambled symbols) Is there anything special to do from CM7 to CM9? I can't figure this out.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eollie:
Make sure you have a backup of the efs using the zip file and system mounted. Most of the time when imei's are messed up its because the backup was made of a unmounted system.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] dardack:
Just curious, the My Touch 4g slide CM9 has the wi-fi calling enabled. The same kernel isn't used?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eollie:
Nope different brand of phone totally.

The sgs4g has some proprietary functions that are not open so they cant be ported to the vanilla android source. Wifi calling is one of those functions.

Also if wifi style calling is important grooveip is a awesome app. I have it on my old Optimus I gave to my kid so she could use it to text her friends and mess around on facebook.

eollie, thanks for that :) So now I'm running 2.3.6 after Heimdall and everything works normal again. I didn't have to flash bootloaders since my screen didn't flash into a Rainbow.

What's the next step? Where should I get the latest CWM and how?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Manumission:
Dude - eollie already pointed you in the right direction. Just keep following all of the steps in lumin30's guide, and you'll be good. And be sure to hit the thanks button for both eollie and lumin30.

Is anyone having battery life issues on this rom? On average, I'm getting 3-4 hours of battery life. Is there a fix that I don't know about? Please let me know what to do
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hechoen:
Get a new battery. Lots of people are having battery issues and everyone of them that has gotten a new battery is getting much better life. Batteries have a life cycle and it seems a lot of them are getting towards the end of it. Plus if I'm wrong(which I'm not) you'll have a backup battery.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eollie:
Im going to go out on a limb and guess you probably restored data from a GB backup. If so reflash and install the apps from the play store. Then only restore data from a non system app that you just have to have.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eclipse245:
okay!

So now I've got CWM 3.2.0.0 however it doesn't mount my sdcard, so i can't do anything in CWM :P

Any ideas?

P.S I also installed the AntonX kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] idevice12345:
Never mind. Im not going to buy new battery. I will just deal with it.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eclipse245:
Got everything figured out, thanks a lot guys. Just one question. GPS isn't really locking too fast if at all at times. Is there a modem I should install that might make the locks faster?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] m4xm4n:
Nope. GPS is rather dwanky at the moment. It's all proprietary Samsung stuff, so there's only so much we can do about it.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] trustinhate:
okay so i feel like a dumbass, how do i get wifi to work? i've turned it on but it never gives me an option to connect to anything... what am i doing wrong here?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Domunus:
My Bluetooth connection to my car pairs and connects fine. However, when I make a call or receive a call it sounds kind of like broken up robotics and the pitch of the voice is raised.

Originally I thought it was due to the know CM9 issue with the Car / Desk dock not working. However, i recalled seeing that same issue with CM7, which i believe is still listed as not working, in which my bluetooth connection with my car worked fine. I've done a search and have found a lot of pairing issues, but none in regards to audio with the exception of one involving music.

I've tried multiple ICS ROMS and end up with the same results. I've completely wiped the phone between each install including formatting system. And deleted the old pairs saved in the car and repaired. Currently i'm on AOKP milestone 6 build 3.

I will figure out how to get the logs from my phone tomorrow to post as I've seen mention of logcat.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] vopezy:
Go to: Settings/wifi. when its turned on there should be a list of wifi networks.

Release notes

Anyway we can get bhundven to post release notes with the builds? We are up to Release 6 on [ROM][MTD]CyanogenMod 9.0.0-rc2 UNOFFICIAL by TeamAcid[R6][Jul-29-2012]. Sorry I'm a novice and had MobileTechVideos(Josh) do my update to this ROM initially. I have release 5 and cannot make sense of the release logs to figure out what has changed between releases. Thanks guys :o

---------- Post added at 01:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:08 PM ----------

Can you post some release notes on the development thread? We are at release 6 and being a novice, I cannot make sense of the release logs. Some notes would help explain what has been added or fixed. I have release 5 and not sure what has changed and if I should go to release 6. Thanks :o
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bhundven:
All of the source and bugs are on github. I don't have time to duplicate that data here.

If you can't follow the directions or search first, then maybe you shouldn't be flashing custom roms or rooting your phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Android_free:
Thanks

Thanks found it. Phone already flashed and rooted. Saw your bump to version 5, just follow .mk files. No references to version 6 :(

Does anyone know how to get the wired tethering working? I need this feature for work but have been using an app
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] th3controller:
No... in the main cm9 thread its still in "not working"
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] brandonc0526:
But in CM9 its actually working. Bryan doesn't update the changes on the OP because that's a pain. If you look on github, there are changes showing tethering fixed, both Wi-Fi and wired.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] tichs:
have you test it yourself?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] brandonc0526:
Yep. Ran it for about a week and a half no problems before I switched to ParanoidAndroid rom, which is based on CM9 and it works on it too
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] tichs:
I am running codename android and it doesn't work, I switched back to Stock GB and worked. I don't know but if it works on CM9 do you know whihch files I have to overwrite in the system directory of the phone to make it work without flashing cm9?. Otherwise I'll flash to the lastest CM9 or paranoid and try. Is that I don't want to loose the lighting zap scripts and improvements of the rom
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bhundven:
Try the Codename Q&A thread. This is the CM9 Q&A thread.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] tichs:
I just was asking if CM9 has wired tethering working and if so what files are affected that make it work.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bhundven:
Ah, well, flash it. Try it out.

None of the developers will post anything that will brick your phone.

And if they do, I'm sure other people will rate the thread down and be all sorts of angry.

So, flash and be happy :D
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] tichs:
I flashed it and it doesn't work but in GingerBread works perfectly. I have all drivers installed and working. It says tethering or hotspot active but it doesn't show any new connection in the PC
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eollie:
Grab a log and post it to pastebin and post that link here.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] brandonc0526:
You MUST have the android SDK installed for it to work
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Fluidification:
or you could download aLogcat from the Market.

EDIT: Sorry, "Play Store"
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Beastmode:
I actually like catlog

If helped don't be afraid to hit the thanks button ;) it doesn't bite lol
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] tichs:
I have the sdk and the google usb drivers. in Gingerbread it works. but any ICS rom it doesn't.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] brandonc0526:
This may be related to your computer. I tether to my Toshiba satellite laptop via USB and it works with no problem. Although usually its slower than wirelessly tethering
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] tichs:

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bhundven:
Which rom are you having this problem with.

If you are not on CM9, then flash CM9 and continue to trouble shoot with us. Otherwise, use the respective Q&A thread for your rom.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] tichs:
It's CM9 I am not in any other rom, the logcat is from cm9
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] idividebyzero:
When I play music with the headphone jack plugged in the sound also comes out of the ear piece, I thought that was weird.

Also I was trying to call voicemail but it wouldnt dial, it would just sit there saying "dialing." This was happening because I installed skype and it wanted to know which dialer to use to make calls but it wasnt asking when I hit the voice mail button. After I tried making a normal call and selecting the phone as the default dialer it worked.

Using release 6
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] vopezy:
Do you have a case that is not letting you plug the jack all the way in?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] chazel3:
I also had the same issue on cm9, with and without my case on.

Actually I don't think it was coming from the earpiece, but rather from the speaker on the back. Sound was very soft though
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] idividebyzero:
its the stock case, and even if there was an issue with it being plugged in the sound would be coming out the rear speaker, it is definitely coming out of the earpiece (which should never happen), so it has to be a software bug

Playing music also causes the phone to heat up big time, maybe the audio driver is messed up
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eclipse245:
And since we're already on topic, I'm also having trouble tethering with CM9 on the Galaxy S 4G.

I'm also running CM9 on my SGS2, and when I tether with that phone it works fine, but there is no connection when I tether with the Galaxy S 4G
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mikeflash:
Wifi seems to be draining my battery really fast. Overnight it can drain up to 30% or even more. This happened on my i777 with cm9 too, but was fixed later in a nightly.

You can use wired tether apk http://code.google.com/p/android-wired-tether/downloads/list meanwhile. Too bad the app limits the speed to 24Mbps. I think the issue is that the phone just doesn't set up RNDIS modem by default, the samsung USB Modem device doesn't show up in the PC. I hope bryan releases a zip with the fix alone

Can't flash Bryans Aries teaser. I used twrp to flash so unless its a one click file I don't know what I'm doing wrong.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] brandonc0526:
Good question, what are you doing wrong? I flashed from TWRP on AOKP b3 and i booted up just fine for me, i also flashed Gapps, don't know if that would change whether it boots or not. Try redownloading maybe? What's worth noting is that aroma doesn't work with the CWM that's included, you have to flash CM9 and then AOKP
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lonoguge:
Yea I'll redownload it. What did you think of the from btw?

using rom cm-9-20120729-UNOFFICIAL-galaxys4gmtd.zip on a SGS 4G

Lol great job though Bryan. I was using it for a couple of hours and the performance seemed more consistent, but it did have some quirks, like the weird looking display.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] KrisM22:
Cool! So does the GPS work? Thanks!!!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] codealarms:
Yes. Works for me. You can download an app called gps fix and see if you're at least getting something. If not use the heimdall one click and start the process again
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] idevice12345:
Yes it does
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] KrisM22:
Thanks! I just came from Heimdall one-click the second time, wanting everything to be clean. It knows where they are supposed to be, but it can't hear them. I have angrygps, gps status, gps test, and I'll grab gps fix. It may simply be that it doesn't work, but I'll spent some more time playing - if it works on yours, then there's no prob with the rom.

Thanks again!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eollie:
Walk outside and try then. Then gps fails to gain a lock indoors. I also believe there is a setting to enable the internal gps that you need to make sure is enabled.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] KrisM22:
Yes, I did find that internal thing that needs to be selected. So far, gps fix has been able to get close, but I forgot I had left wifi on - just shut it off, and we'll see hoe it does. It will grab any info it can from a tower or a wifi spot, and make it look like a sat. I'll know in a few minutes... Yes, outside a bunch yesterday, and i'll do that more later today. But I think it's dead. <sound of taps>

EDIT: yeah, w/o wifi, it shows about 100yards away. radar shows no sats.

---------- Post added at 05:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:01 PM ----------

YES!!! Went outside and ran gps fix and it was pretty quick and seemed close, though its radar showed nothing.

Tried GPS test and it lit up like a xmas tree!

Tried gmaps and it was right on!

HUGE THANKS TO ALL!!! :victory::victory::victory:

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eollie:
Samsungs gps is one of its weak points. But once you are outside or in a car it works fine. Weird how wood and sheetrock block the signal but the metal and glass of a car allows it right on through.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] KrisM22:
That's okay! I'm just unbelievably happy that it works!!!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Fluidification:
it's called Samsung.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lexman098:
Is there a way to disable the lights under the capacitive buttons (preferably temporarily). I've read that CM9 is supposed to let you hold down the menu button or something to do that. Also, it would be nice if these could be used as a notification light when you have messages or something.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] brandonc0526:
You can use an app called screen filter to disable them until the next time you touch them. For the notification thing, we have it, it's called BLN. Just download bln control from the market and set it up
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] pisherthefisher:
That's currently a kernel bug. You can use the app screen filter to disable it but the keys lights turn back on when you touch them or lock and unlock the phone.

About the soft key lights being used as notification lights, you're in luck. The kernel support bln (back light notifications). All you have to do I download bln control from the market (the pro version works best)

Edit: ah, Brandon beat me to it. With the same exact advice too. Hive mind.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bhundven:
Technically, it's not a kernel bug. Its a rom issue. I'm looking into it.

Thanks to everyone being so patient with our current issues.

I have been working with jeffsf and m4xm4n on the new aries kernel, but it is taking much more time then expected.

If you look at the issue tracker, we have started documenting bugs that need to be dealt with until we can make a release.

In the mean time, I am working on a Herring R7. I am looking to fix the advanced settings screen, the backlight issues, and a few minor details.

Keep an eye out, an update will be coming soon.

I will be posting this same message in the dev thread.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] pisherthefisher:
Ah my mistake. It seemed like every ics rom has the issue so I assumed its a problem with the kernel.

Thanks for all the effort you guys put into developing for this device. Its very much appreciated. :D
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lexman098:
Yeah no problem, this ROM is great and I'm sure it will be ironed out relatively soon.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] KrisM22:

Hey bhundven, I see in your working list on cm9 it says that the ffc camera doesn't have hardly any functionality.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] KrisM22:
Certainly it does, but I think Bhundven et al are owed a HUGE pile of thanks for what they have done. They'll get us to JB eventually, but I have tons of patience, and I do like this release!!!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bhundven:
Donations help too!

Donations are really helpful for devs. Specifically for me, I'm out of work.

Coffee would be nice, I'd like to get kapton tape and some small gauge leads so I can start working on internal uart for sgs4g... and unbrickable mod for sk4g, if I get one.

I've talked with other devs and we all agree. It's nice to get thanks, and none of us have ever straight up asked for donations, but donations are the best way to show appreciation!

So I guess the Galaxy s 4g is the number one phone that Apple wants to ban. If Apple successfully bans this phone, will tmobile do anything to us users? Maybe offer us a free blaze 4g or s2?:D

They want to ban sales of the phone.

I'm reading back through this thread and thought to say:

when I flash this CM9 ICS rom,

after doing Heimdall and Kern to get CWM,

Flash the rom zip and it changes CWM to 6.xxx.

I flash that same zip again and now it installs it.

Then, I flash the gapps zip.

Welcome to the Unofficial CyanogenMod 9 Q&A thread for the Galaxy S 4G, the most apple patent infringing samsung device as of late.

If you have a question about this particular unofficial rom build, please ask here. Otherwise, start a new thread.

Thanks!

from somewhere in this thread:

clear cache, dalvik, battery stats, fix permissions... before or after I flash this rom?

Somewhere I read that "wipe data/factory reset" also wiped cache and dalvik. True or not?

I have never run into any problems except when I didn't do "wipe data/factory reset" before flashing the rom. But I have never done battery stats or fix permissions...

Thanks (so far I have read this thread back to page 20...)

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
There are several partitions ("disks") on a SGS4G. In addition to things like the boot loaders, kernel, radio ("modem"), efs, and some other low-level things, there are

/system

/data

/cache

There is also the "funny" asec or "Android secure" filesystem, which is actually a set of encrypted files on your microSD in /sdcard/.android_secure

"Wipe data/factory reset" generally wipes /data and /cache (and not /system) -- the Dalvik cache is in /data/dalvik-cache -- wiping /data also wipes the Dalvik cache.

I don't know how CWM handles asec, but if you're concerned, you can remove the .android_secure folder from your microSD.

"Battery calibration" is snake oil. The file most apps delete contains the information used to display the battery usage screen. It doesn't have anything to do with power control actions. You can either read the code, or read what Google has to say on the myth.

Note: If/when MTD partitions and/or mountpoints change, wiping /data may not wipe the Dalvik cache, and may not wipe user data. The above only applies to kernels/ROMs of the current era.
