Sigh, I know this is very annoying, it isn't terribly hard to get around.

I just restore all the apps I want to put on the SD card first, then transfer them out of internal memory to SD and then restore the rest of the apps to internal memory.

Gemini is definitely a big help, not sure what other work arounds there are, please share if anyone has any other solutions. Thanks.

There isn't anyone one modem that works best with any rom.

You have to try different ones to see what works best for you in your area.

If there was a best modem for any rom, the devs would put that modem in as stock, right?

That is not the case.

Read up on modems and you will see based on location it can vary for various people.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Alarmmy:
I have a concern that if download mode is broken, how can we flash back to stock using ODIN or anything else? It is said that CM9 and all of ICS share the same issue which isnt able to reboot to download mode! I'm sorry if Im asking a stupid question, but this issue makes me so confused.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] sleevasteve:
You can use the normal method of getting into download mode, you just can't "reboot to download mode" from the power menu.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] ipaq_101:
Hold the Volume up and down keys together and insert the micro sd cable into your phone (make sure you have it connected to your computer first, ;))

That should get you into download mode.

If you are using odin, make sure odin is open before you enter download mode.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Alarmmy:
Thank guys, It was just a misunderstanding of reading the OP. I thought it meant download mode didnt working at all.

i just updated from 4.0.4 to 4.0.6 via downloading the zip file on to my sd card and installing via recovery, and i have a big problem. My google account disappeared and as a result, no email, no contacts... anyone else have this problem?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
I was trying to use the Android package manager but couldn't get the setting to work with TB.

pm get-install-location returned 0 which is auto (it chooses internal/external)

1 = internal

2 = externeal

tried

pm set-install-location 2

tried restoring via TB

Nothing, but I'm thinking this setting will stick for apps installed via Google Play.

If you guys have titanium backup pro, it can remember where you had the app installed when you restored it.

Menu > Preferences > Restore Backup To

You can set where to restore your apps. If you don't have TB Pro, I recommend you buy it if you flash ROMs as much as I do. It's well worth your money. I've owned TB Pro for about a year now and I'm still finding out about its features. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] tanw42:
First off, I would like to say good job. I just used AOKP for the first time "AOKP Build 40-06 (Unofficial by Team Acid) Jul 02" and for some reason the data always cycles from 3G to H (is that 4G because it never says it). Is this normal because the bars are usually low too? This never happened in my stock ROM and in Valhalla Black Edition. IMEI has a bunch of numbers from 0-9.

When you guys turn the phone off and charge it, do you get only a grey battery? The battery icon never turns green for me
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eb13:
Yes, this is normal... there are a few discussions about this through out the forums so not going to give the long story but your data connection is working just the same. The "H" is for hsdpa which is 4g and our phone basically idles on umts (3g) to conserve battery.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] falcons2:
I noticed that media server uses a ton of battery like it will be at the top of my list when I check the battery stats. What would this be
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hwchan:
So I got AOKP flashed just fine, but I've noticed a couple of problems.

1) Whenever I set the DPI to less than 200 (ie., 160 or 180), the Phone app will FC whenever I get to dialing someone, and will continue to do this until I set the DPI back to 200 or higher. Has anyone else noticed this problem?

2) When trying to add a Facebook account to the Accounts portion in settings, it goes to the Facebook splash screen and just stops. I don't get anything after that, no login screen, nothing.

Cheers

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Juls317:
Have you tried adding the Facebook account just through the app?

Sent from my Unicorn powered SGS4G
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] tanw42:
Thanks for the reply. One more thing, if I receive text message, is there a setting that will allow my phone to light up (as if you press the side power button) and perhaps have a number 1 on the button you slide to unlock the phone RATHER than just hear a sound while the phone screen is "black". Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eb13:
You can't do it through the app because the app is not fully updated to ics standards so when you open the fb app settings the option is missing

Anything below 200 just isn't compatible then.

Log out of the Facebook app, log back in and try. That's what's worked for me
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hwchan:
Have you tried just using the notification bar to go direct to the text? You can still access it from the lock screen.

Oh dang, you're right, I hadn't quite google enough yet. Slightly OT, but is there a decent app workaround for syncing Facebook contacts?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mierkat09:
Anybody have face lock app?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eb13:
This one works well, it syncs contacts (all or existing) status, birthdays, etc... - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ro.weednet.contactssync

@tanw42- stock roms would light up the display but that's the only time I've seen it. We do have BLN though (search in play store for app) or there may be an app to do what you want...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] xaocon:
it's in gapps. Have to force the install though.

Ahh didn't know you could do that even in LOCK but I guess my phone won't light up and I just have to hear it to know about the notification. Also, sorry for the barage of questions, but is there something I can do to adjust the Vibration Intensity. Before flashing to this one, there was an slider in Sound to adjust it but this one I can't seem to find one. Thanks !
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] KotsChopShop:
accessing the notification/toggle drop down via lock screen is a bug, not a feature

@Fb would it be possible to impliment Raver's background noise removal for the audio? :p

as mentioned in the Dev OP, gapps needs to be reinstalled after updating
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] sunsurfer42:
I have the same question. Unless I'm watching videos or flashing it is usually just above display with 40% or so. Sometimes battery lasts just fine and sometimes it dies fast with media server on top.

Four questions. What is the swagger option? What is the fast charge option? Can somebody post the Apollo apk? And is the wifi weak signal being worked on?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Fluidification:
OK 1 more thing, the wifi issue is there a bit. When phone is on wifi, it normally shows the data up and down arrows, but when you don't use it for a while, it seems to try to use mobile data, but that doesn't exist during wifi use, so it can't load. Then it sees wifi after 5 seconds and then works.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] iamperson347:
Did you have wifi on the whole time? I'm curious....
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thatdude90210:
Curious what battery stats says. Before AOKP 40-06, same thing was happening on mine, with "Android OS" being ridiculously high, over 80% of battery usage. With AOKP 40-06, the battery drain is more reasonable, woke up this morning and battery is still over 80%.

And "Android OS" is no longer the culprit. Now "Maps" is at 30%, even though I haven't use Maps since yesterday morning.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Wodensman:
Did you flash dirty? I haven't had battery issues for a long, long time. Went to sleep with a full charge, woke up with it on 96%. During that time, some app I have yet to determine, put a bunch of fake apps on my homescreen, and put adds in my notifications.... trying to find the culprit...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hwchan:
For some reason, I have Cell Standby as 48% of battery use... and Screen battery use at 24%. I sense a problem? I've only had it off the charger since 6am, so that's five hours now, and it's down to 67%. Somehow, between 6AM and 9AM when I didn't touch the phone, it drained from 100% to 73%. Strangest thing.

Try disabling auto-sync or force a delay for auto-sync in power saver options... most likely that's what's causing the drain.
