investigated on the widget/settings disappearing issue..(beautiful widgets/minimal reader/smart keyboard and so on... gets lost)

all of thoose are apps that are located in /data/app-asec.....

why are only some apps located under app-asec folder and others not?

seems all apps that are under app-asec are the ones that disappear..can anyone else confirm who have the same issues?

cheers!/H

edit: apps works fine on my i9300/cm10
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] philidor:
Me too but with xda app pro on I9000 CM10 and with P3100 original ROM on page 250. Clear the app solved my problem

Interesting, I found today that the 1 Aug build still forgets my ringtones. I have them copied to /media on internal and external SD and they were seen last night, but not today (no reboot overnight either)

I will look at the zipfile as you suggest.

Yes the widget apps from mnt/asec dissapear most paid apps will go there. Solution: Backup with titanium backup deinstall and restore from backup

Are they any usefull for us ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sebyyy:
Thanks for the reply, as you have mentioned the IMEI is like you mentioned above.

So I need to go back to GB first to get the IMEI back, then I will try upgrading to JB.

FYI - I don't have this issue with my s2 and also this is the first time I have this trouble with s1 also.

Cheers

Thanks dear,

Will try GB rom and will update to JB.

Guys already made use from OTA update that went out few weeks ago for NexusS... :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] anil76:
some options/features not working

1) Settings->sounds->Volume Rocker music.. : I have this on but it does not work. It used to work fine on CM9.

Is it yet to be coded for CM 10 or its a bug ?

2) Settings->Lock Screen->Screen Security->Show widgets before... : This is on but I directly get number lock screen, dont get widgets (slider) as first step to unlock. It used to work fine in CM9. Is it yet to be coded for CM 10 or its a bug ?

3) RAM issue ? Many time when I close an application, my home screen is empty..launcher redraws (take some time). This used to happen for me in CM9 as well (from late June onwards ) ?

Are these issue being faced by others ? Any workaround/solution ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mikandlotta:
While you are in GB, please remember to take a backup copy of the EFS system folder. You will find that handy to recover the IMEI if it happens again (just copy the backup folder over the bad one and reboot).

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Moudii:
I have to disagree, I flashed this over the v2 dertefuel(sp?) build without a data wipe and its just as smooth if not smoother. And how can you get 40% drain in 24h dude?? I can't keep my hands off my phone now so my battery drains so fast because the screen is on all the time ;)

Great job pawitp & co, CyanogenMod is the best thing that ever happened to android.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Trainer_H:
For me, the devil Rom was smoother. Is the only one how i chance to get the smoothnes the devil Kernel, or something else? Now it's laggy.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Funnnny:
Use ICS then .

With JB we don't have any space left at /system, so we *must* do this.

Same problem here cwm backup stuck at "backing up system", I tried to flash Devil JB Kernel but that sent me straight back to ODIN:o

Have reinstalled the ROM now and will just use it with no backup:D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bhu1:
Devil rom is basically the same rom it has datadata . Pawitp has currently removed datadata cause JB filesystem is too big for datadata partition. Currently vsync 4.1 (a jb feature) isn't incorporated in the kernel, I think that will make things smoother and if even after vsync performance is not up to expectations then maybe pawitp will find some other solution or maybe move back to datadata . Currently u will have to use the ROM without datadata only. :/

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] scubadude:
If you are having issues flash the modem again. I have found with on my phone with Jelly Bean each time i flash I seem to have modem issues. flashing the modem again fixes the issue. Had modem issues on V1, V2 and this ROM. Mostly just a lot of noise on calls. Each time flashing modem again fixed.

On V2 I had exact same issue of no data/3g, also had lot of noise on calls, flashed modem again and data is back and calls are perfect.

Edit:

See you have found a fix... Anyway if you find you have poor call quality and the above fix does not work just flash modem again.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Bonta768:
I agree. Always use FasterGPS or FasterFix after flashing any ROM update to tell GPS to use a time server close by. Do this before any GPS testing.

I used FasterFix for a long time, but FasterGPS is better IMO. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.fastergps

CM doesn't use binaries - sources only.

A binary Kang can work, but it's just not how Cyanogenmod rolls
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pmos69:
You're missing the point.

There are proprietary binary files AOSP and CM use, involving firmware/drivers that are not open source. The RIL is an example.

Broken Gallery

I've installed 801 over an older CM10 and the Gallery which was fine seems broken, it only shows images taken after flashing and the settings are empty.

- Clear cache

I wishes to express my gratitude to both gents quoted (I suppouse, they are, humbly). The trick with Titanium Backup re-install made SwiftKey stick as default Input Method after reboot for me.

I had three apps in /mnt/asec - SwiftKey, Tapatalk & BetterBatteryStats

* SwiftKey I've mentioned

* In Tapatalk - No noticable effect. The reinstall hasn't solved the OP FC (not that anyone suggested it would and not that I had any other prob than at the OP before)

* It did no apparent anything to BBS either (not that I had prob with it before)

So, anyway, thanks for the useful hint. The button's been hit.

=== Edit ==

Also, since the issue is being reported over and over and the advice people give is inconsistent:

If you

Lost ringtone and notification sounds

Lost all your pictures in Gallery

Lost all you music in Apollo

Apollo and or Gallery FC

Please do the following:

Go into Manage Apps -> All

Clear data for

- Apollo

- Gallery

- Media Storage

Go to System Settings -> Storage

Unmount Internal SDCard (wait untill it finished unmounting)

Mount Internal SDCard (wait untill it finished mounting :) )

Reboot your phone

Leave the phone alone for 20 minutes. Just forget about it. Go walk your dog / take a bath / watch a movie / explore your GF's UI / whatever...

Don't touch the phone.

If you have many pictures and/or music make it 40 minutes.

If it did not work, you've been holding your phone [wrong].

Told you not to touch it....
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pmos69:
There's always going to be a problem with the SGS io performance.

At first I remember everybody thought it was due to the RFS filesystem Samsung uses in its roms, but unfortunately it seems it's not.

Using writeback mode helps a little, but the improvement is really small.

Processor times still get an absurd amount of iowait.

Have you made any tests using btrfs with compression instead of ext4?

The issue will always be the slow io, and the reduction in actual io introduced by the compression should compensate (several times) the increased cpu usage.

Waiting seconds for write operations of these sizes to perform is insane.

The io is actually happening and can be checked:

adb shell iostat -k mmcblk0p2 2

Gives a nice overview of both cpu usage/state and io for the /data partition.

... now launch the browser and open a page and watch both %iowait and the actual io being performed.

The io is not actualy all that much, but is

extremelly

slow, and the cpu ends up just waiting for the io for most of the time.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] SiriusCybernetik:
Well, let's see how Google solved the problem with Nexus S....
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Kshitiz_Indian:
@Pawitp - Just wondering; the large I/O times that you showed in the image; what kind of I/O was that? Was it the (made famous) datadata type operations or other I/O?

I've been a silent lurker on these forums for ages and have been using CM9 since the first build you posted. CM9 RC2 was pretty quick for me, no such 'lags', but what I did consistently notice was that USB transfer speeds were extremely slow on the stock kernel even till the RC2 [something like 2MB/s write sequential] (Other kernels like Devil gave much faster transfer speeds, around 10-11MB/s like Samsung roms did.)

The problem persisted in the first few jellybean builds, though was fixed recently (I'm now getting 6-7MB/s write speeds on sequential files; though still not 10-11- maybe my NAND gave out?)

CM10's been running a LOT better since that fix but as your picture showed its still sometimes there.

I've also tried the Helly Bean Rom (one that puts back in /datadata) and I've had similar issues there.

So long story short, have you been able to trace what kind of long I/O operations are those? Is this a JB thing that more I/O has been introduced or what? :S

If apollo fc, try to delete mediastorage data and reboot. Wait for 15-20 minutest and try apollo again.

I have another problem with apollo. After half an hour of hearing music it suddenly change to random and skipa to another track. Anyone else have this too?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ravi84m:
I've already done it. I even wiped media storage using titanium but no joy.

Others are also complaining about loss of media files in gallery and apollo so I think it's an issue in the recent rom.

No issues so far wen flashing new updates without wipes. U on custom kernel?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mikandlotta:
It seems to be a random thing, happens to a few people. Happened to me 'once' - never on the recent builds. I have not seen a pattern in user reports either.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] matesc:
It happened to me everytime i switched from GB to JB (or to ICS). But it never happened to me upgrading ICS to ICS (or JB to JB) with or without full wipe (&format system).

Therefore doing a backup of EFS folder is the only one solution for this.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ravi84m:
Thanks for the tip. Remounting and rebooting actually worked in my case. But the gallery settings are still blank.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] amirali75:
This is definitely in its alpha stage and there's a long way to go. Alright let me tell you some of the irritating bugs/problems(and a logcat for one of the problems):

- Sometimes when I'm in the homescreen and I press the app drawer button, all the widgets and app shortcuts turn black and then in the app drawer I often face a black screen and when I scroll I see some of my apps in the other screen. Then when I return to homescreen, again everything turns black for one second. This also happens when I press the home button while in homescreen. I grabbed a logcat for this and from that I figure it has to do something with GL Renderer(I don't know anything about logcat, I just saw that phrase a lot)

-Poor Wi-Fi coverage: I definitely had stronger wifi in CM9. Well, while searching here about this, I saw a post that said to disable "Avoid Poor Connections" but I don't think that's the main problem because the overall wifi strength seems to have reduced compared to CM9

Hi ppl,

my brother, who has this device, asked me for a new, fast, reasonably stable ROM.

I'm not really into SGS, may I ask you if this rom is daily usable, quite stable ?

I looked for a Known Issues link in OP, but didn't find it...

Many thanks

Fabio

EDIT

I guess this page, filtered by "accepted", is quite near my needs, isn't it ?

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] amirali75:
Yes, it's actually exactly where you can find the known issues. And no this is not suitable for daily use. You may want to try CM9(ICS) or CM7(Gingerbread) or you can wait until a stable version of CM10 is released, which I believe, will take a while. I hope this helps:)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Hybridesque:
Had a bit of a mishap, rebooted the phone after a few niggles and it went into a boot loop. Ended up flashing to a Samsung ROM, flashing CF-ROOT and then coming back to 1st August build. Couldn't get into recovery sadly otherwise would've tried that.

I installed also the fastergps. I set my server to : de.pool.ntp.org. The lock is ok. It takes less then 1 minute.

I have tested my daily way in the office this moring. I start with good GPS, but after some meters the connection stops(break) . Some meters more the signal was again very good.

I have 5 breaks within 7 km. Hopefully it is possibly to get a better GPS signal in JB sometimes.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] amirali75:
Yes, I can. Again, yes, I can. But it lags a lot and it's slow, not to mention other small but irritating problems. And plus, why would it be called "Alpha" if it was suitable for daily use? I don't think making phone calls/sms and getting through a day with battery life are the only factors for everyone to call a rom "stable".
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] philidor:
ALPHA!!!

This IS ALPHA!

"The alpha phase of the softwere release life cycle is the first phase to begin

software testing

.... Alpha software can be

unstable

and could

cause crashes or data loss

.... he alpha phase usually ends with a feature freeze, indicating that no more features will be added to the software. At this time, the software is said to be feature complete...." from wikipedia :laugh: --> after is BETA (open/closed) --> Release candidate --> Final Release a long way from ALPHA!

If you want to try and be a tester is at your risk.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Mangus_U*RA:
to avoid lag in daily use, just flash semaphore or devil's kernel.

With stock kernel sometimes the phone is unusable due to the lag, but with those kernels I've no problem at all and it is perfectly usable.

I know that in this thread non-stock kernels are evil :D but I just wanted to answer to the guy more clearly.

ps: that is an answer to chareos12. Forgot to quote ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rajeshbabushrestha:
if u want something fast and stable... go for cm9... but if u can live with some bugs... go for cm10 coz it is good for daily use n lot smoother than cm9... i hope this helps
