[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JoNex:
Hey Guys,

Model: i9020t

Baseband: I9020XXKI1

Kernel: 3.0.31-g3b0c5d2 android-build@vpbs1 ) #1 PREEMPT Fri Jul 13 11:51:48 PDT 2012

Build Number: JRO03E

After upgrading to 4.1.1 last night I am still having the infamous ICS 4.0.4 "Auto-Rotate" high cpu bug issue on 4.1.1 where the CPU is constantly running the "Android System" process (system_server) between 15% to 25%.

I have also noticed that with 4.1.1 the "System" process (ksmd) is constantly running at 10% to 15%.

So basically, while my Nexus S is idle, the CPU is constantly running at about 25% to 40%, which is very bad.

I have already wiped and flashed the 4.0.4 stock factory image from Google and updated to 4.1.1 again, but the problem persists.

So for now I am keeping auto-rotate disabled and I don't know what to do about the KSMD System process hogging some CPU.

Is anybody else having these issues on 4.1.1 and if so, are there any fixes available?

Thanks!

I have the same problem

Hi, I have the same terminal and the same symptoms. If someone can guide us, would be very grateful.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spooky_:
I have exactly the same issue. With "Auto Rotate" enabled, the "system_server" process is hogging a lot of CPU time constantly. The CPU load graph shows "2.0" in idle (idk how that translates into a percentage). With "Auto Rotate" disabled, "system_server" is not at the top anymore and it goes down to "1.0". But 1.0 still seems to be much (again, idk how to translate it into a percentage of the CPU load?) and the process that is constantly at the top then is "ksmd".

May be someone has a good advice form me. I’m trying to upgrade my htc Magic 32B to ICS.

Here I started:

SPL/hboot version: 1.33.0014 *** UNLOCKED ***

Radio version: 2.22.19.26i

Main software version: 3.12.0.0

cdi: vodap120

cpld: 10

product sapphire

mid: sapp10000

security: on

build-mode: ship
​

I did the following steps:

a)	copy mtdpartmap.txt >>> /sdcard/ (mtd 140 40)

b)	recovery-v1.5.9-Alpha3-CustomMTD_S.zip

c)	wipe system + data

d)	boot

e)	update-cm-9.0.0-RC0-dream_sapphire-alpha2.2.zip

f)	ezgb-2636-v1.5.3-ics_S.zip

g)	boot-v1.5.9-Alpha3-CustomMTD_S.zip

h)	04ad2ext script (see http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=29088743&postcount=301)​

The phone is booting, but there is a msg “unfortunately the process com.android.phone has stopped“

Any guess why this happen and how to get rid of it:confused:

Thx

Gerhard
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gerhard34:
you better stick to the exact versions from the ICS development thread!

I changed:

SPL/hboot version from 1.33.0014 ==> 1.33.0013d

Radio version: 2.22.19.26i ==> 2.22.28.25

Custom MTD (recovery + boot): 1.5.9 ==> 1.5.6

I have been searching the Google/XDA world for an app or mod that would allow me to control the music play at the moment. That's my favorite hing about iOS. In the lock screen you can control Pandora, MOG, or iPod.

The notification bar is accessible from within almost any app so it would be ideal to have global controls there. If there is anything like this please feel free to chime in.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Ivizoid:
I'm also looking for the same thing. I have a jailbroken app on iOS called JukeBox that let's me have a music widget and it controls any app playing music and shows artwork pretty cool.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Dismal Shadow:
Google Music?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] tamcdonald:
Cm9 lets you add music controls to the notification panel.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] aycockonxion:
Stock 4.0.4 also lets you pause/play and skip Google Play Music from the notification panel.. so, I'm not sure what more the OP is really wanting, unless you want a miniature version of Play Music to show up or something like that. The dev of the respective app (Pandora, etc) would have to support controls for their app from within the notification panel.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] projectvirtue:
Miui Music and Playerpro both have notification music control too.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rawb123456:
I use Pandora a lot and Mog. Google Play music is nice but I prefer MOG. I just wanted to know if there android could possible do what iOS does.

Sure I could go back to my iPhone but I enjoy Android. I was just curious if the option existed anywhere.

Cm9 does allow me to add those widgets, thanks foe the reminder. I will try that out...any suggestions for my first cm9 flash?

Another option is to use the MIUI rom; its idea is the same as iOS, any music app can be controlled from lockscreen controls..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] scottx .:
Go back to your iPhone. That's the best thing you can do!

/me waves

Most custom roms have this built in now. Google.music has it and so does poweramp. Try em out!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mobilelew:
I think I know what you are referring to. I too came from IOS and that is what I liked most. No matter what music player I was using I could control the music (pause, next, previous) from the lock screen. The default lock screen does not offer this, most custom lock screens do not either. However the AOSP lockscreen will, and so does MiLocker (provided the theme has music control built in). MiLocker should work with any ROM, the AOSP lockscreen may or may not depending on your ROM. If you need help let me know. :good:

Also many music players do have controls in the notification pull down. Grooveshark is the only music app that I use that does not give me controls in the notification pulldown. Hope this helps.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jellybellys:
THIS IS REALLY IMPORTANT, I WAS BORROWING A FRIEND'S XOOM FE TO DO THIS, AND I BROKE IT...

Allright, my friend wanted his xoom family edition rooted. So I went over to this page: http://vulnfactory.org/blog/2012/02/18/xoom-fe-stupid-bugs-and-more-plagiarism/ and ran the script. I rooted just fine. Then I was interested in making an unsecure boot image. I grabbed the boot image from /dev/block/mmcblk0p2. Then I used this (http://www.mydroidworld.com/topic/9778-how-to-create-an-insecure-boot-image/) script to automatically generate an unsecure boot image. The image generated just fine. I pushed the rooted.img file to /sdcard/ then did adb shell. In there I typed:

su

cd /dev/block

dd if=/sdcard/rooted.img of=mmcblk0p2

reboot

Then it rebooted, only to hang on the "dual core technology" screen.

The family edition dosen't have an unlockable bootloader unlike the wingray and stingray. I can get to "recovery" (aka factory reset & reboot automatically in 20 seconds screen) but can only sometimes get adb access, and cannot get root access, or access to adb shell (the stock recovery does not include /system/bin/sh)

Am I screwed or what?
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wesamothman:
From recovery, try to wipe cache and dalvik, then try to reboot, or it would be better if you can push another recovery image...
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jellybellys:
The Xoom Family Edition recovery is only an auto factory reset that starts as soon as you enter it. Once it's done resetting, it reboots. As far as I know, there's no fastboot or rsd support on the family edition. The problem is that I made my own kernel image, but in the process f**ed it up a bit, and now I have no way of flashing back the stock boot.img. Even if I were capable of wiping cache/dalvik, it still wouldn't boot, as my kernel image is messed up. Thankfully, I did back up the stock boot.img, so I was wondering if anyone knew of any way to flash it or am I screwed?

even I would like to know. seems both are very good.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
if noone answers do a comparison and include battery life, performance etc.

Speedmod is original

hl note core is adapted speedmod so use same versions of speedmod when doing so :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hchxoom:
I've used both, and prefer glnotecore (have beenn off speedmod about 3 wks). On my note, it is smoother, more stable, and faster. I also get great batt life for this level of performance. Of course, we're finding that there are some fairly significant variances note-to-note, so you really need to test both on your phone to know what works best for you, but I can attest to notecore's overall performance. Fwiw, I'm using same dev's latest rom (cleannote) along with latest kernel (6.1, which is not speedmod-based). If you're using a rom with lots of scripts and tweaks, then notecore isn't for you as it is optimized without such items (read thread to learn more about why). It may also not be for you if you're looking for lots of mods... dev is focused on performance and stability without trendy bells and whistles. Hope this is helpful to you.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kangal:
Think of them like this:

SpeedMod = original Samsung Kernel but "safe"

NOTECORE = customized Samsung Kernel and "safe"

If you're going to use the Stock TouchWizz ROM with minimal changes, go for SpeedMod, it should be more stable.

If you want to customize your NOTE with a TouchWizz-based ROM, go for Notecore, you can underclock the min frequency (save battery), then overclock max freq (faster), then undervolt it slightly (save even more battery). Then use a more effecient governor like InteractiveX or Ondemand (save battery without losing performance). Then you can overclock the gpu, and get smooth performance with the ChainFire3D plugin.

Then again, if you really want ultimate customization... you'll need AOSP ROM + Kernel.

Examples:

A) SpeedMod K3-9 + (Samsung) LRG ROM = Samsung Experience

B) NOTECORE + m3dd0g's LiquidSmooth v3.0 = Custom Experience

C) ANiKernel + AOKP build 41 (milestone 6) = Deep Custom Experience
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kam333:
I'd say it depends on how you use your device,

If your not addicted to flashing & you want a stable smooth phone with minimum issues, use SpeedMod

However, if you like to tinker & don't mind a few bugs go with notecore.

At the moment notecore is hit & miss, a new version (sometimes 2) everyday tells you its not there YET.

I started with v1 through to v5, whilst at its best notecore is the fastest kernel for our note, for me there was always the occasional freeze that didn't happen with SpeedMod or funky, or even with earlier versions of the same kernel.

PS. This is not a criticism of the dev, I donated to him for his work on the kernel & a few years ago for his superb windows mobile (cleanex) roms

I feel the need to mention this to avoid any potential flame wars igniting as some folks get a little 'Apple' when you speak objectively.

Chances are notecore will get there, but for me right now, SpeedMod whilst lacking the outright speed of NC, its just as smooth but more reliable.

As always ymmv.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] M3TALLICA:
Agree with that.

NoteCore is all speed. SpeedMod is stable, smooth and reliable.

I had corrupt sd-card on NoteCore, don't remember which version but I never tried it again. Things have gotten better and I might give V7 a try.

As for people getting apples - welcome to Internet there are E-Rambo-Hulks everywhere.:silly:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kam333:
Haha, E-Rambo-Hulks, not heard that 1 before.

Also had issues with the sd card unmounting & apps uninstalled on reboot.

Just tried v7 so far the freezing has gone, especially with dead trigger.

will give it a few hours/days.

Edit: freezing still happening, back to speedmod.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
ive never had an issue with either kernel but for me notecore out performs speedmod hands down.

There are 2 versions of notecore, Standard and extreme, Extreme does not work for everyone (strange but true) But it works for me :)

No issues, No FC's, No lags, No battery drain.

I play dead trigger A LOT and i have the tegra 3 graphics enabled and it is buttery smooth. Awesome game if i must say so.

But the only way to know which one is right for you is to try them both and heavily test them :)

What works for one person doesnt mean it will work for another.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simplelife:
notecore kernel are AWESONE.....
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shaolin95:
Completely agree with you. Anyone that feels speedmod is just as smooth but more stable must not use their phones for gaming or other CPU intensive apps because the difference is HUGE if you are comparing the OCed version with the regular speedmod.

Of course, it all depends on what the person needs it for and nothing beats testing for yourself since it takes little time to flash back and forth.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kam333:
i said it was just as smooth & more reliable, i gave my opinion based on

my

experience,

please accept my apologies if english isnt your 1st language so you dont understand what you're typing, but for you to assume how another person uses their phone based on

your

experience, makes no sense.

notecore is fast, no question, but for me, with fifa12, dead trigger, nova3, gt racing... all play just as smooth with both kernels, where i notice the speed difference is on things like launcher transitions or opening solid explorer NC is a fraction quicker, not Huge, we're talking milliseconds quicker.

again, genuine apologies if your comment has been misinterpreted but the point still stands... your experience will be different to others (vice-versa).
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Akilesh:
In my personal experience I find both of them good in their own ways. Note core is a full performance kernel while speedmod Is a balanced kernel. I keep coming back to Note core because of it's brilliant performance, thanks to Gavin . :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shaolin95:
Look mate... I understood what you said perfectly so no idea what your language comment was about.... And I would like to see a video of Nova 3 on both kernels on your phone because I test every rom and kernel pretty much and I know that the performance is not the same... I hope English is your first language so you can understand that 'talk is cheap' .... ;)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kangal:
Theoretically you are right.

In practice, you may not be.

SpeedMod = stability oriented.

NOTECORE= speed oriented.

AOSP kernel = speed and feature oriented.

Nova 3 could run fullspeed on Stock Samsung, SpeedMod, Notecore and AOSP. Or Nova 3 running fullspeed only on AOSP. Or only on Notecore and AOSP.

Obviously, it depends on how good the device (they're not created equal) and rom is, as well as the user (different apps installed, different forms of usage).

The only way to decide is to test them personally and see what works for you.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atonal:
I'm using and testing also both, and all versions...... If you compare it with cars, or car builder, then Hardcore is more the "settled" one, like Mercedes, that is a kernel, that is solid, stable and do what it should do..... Speedmod is good, if you want to have a kernel with good performance, but you don't want to Overclock or something...... And I think, here speedmod is very good....... For Users, they don't want to screw on setups, just having a kernel, that is installed and good!

Gavin is more like a tuning builder, like amg that takes the Mercedes and try to get out more performance on every little part of the engine....... But also get stable enough to win the 24hours race in LeMans :)

My favourite is Notecore, cause I'm also a screwing fan...... To get as much performance as can out of my note, and here is Notecore definitely on Pole Position....... Since V4 performance is so good, that I get the first time really satisfied......... All runs very fast, apps open like rockets..... Game performance is awesome (gaming Dead Trigger with full effects and tegra effects also triggered on, runs smooth as butter), and also on heavy apps like Photoshop touch, there is enough power to render effects on high resolution pics from Cameras like the CV-5 with 4096x2048 px in png nearly uncompressed......

But Notecore is a performance Kernel, if you are a bit sensible, and you get a heart attack, if your phone gets a little bit warm.... Than better use a kernel that is a bit more conservative..... :)

@ Kangal

Nice summary,

@shaolin95

Really not fussed enough to flash both kernels make a video just to prove a point (I'm yawning at the thought), I have no reason to lie about the smoothness, simply want what most people want, great performance with stability, still it's just a phone, I don't fret about getting 5 more fps.

If you're getting that with NC then I'm happy for you. I'm not, but I'll say again, it's only a matter of time before the dev gets it spot on. Until then speedmod works great for me.

All the best.

From classic rom. Has tried note std v7 for 3 days. Very smooth and battery drain performance was superb as well. But having same issue with other user. UI sometimes will hang for few second without any respond. But still able to pull down notification bar.

Tried speedmod k3-9 yesterday till now, stable, battery performance not bad at all, smooth and no single hang.

Battery performance is very subjective things, u must try it and compare by your self.

My problem was I already had a sturdy Arkon window mount for my 7" tablet. Easy in and strong and with the proper grip already in place (you can change them out for various size fingers to fit most tabs and phones; landscape or portrait.

I got the infuse dock, but did not want a second mount in my car and I did not want to take the S III out of the case. So, I took the circuit board out as many have done already, and retained the cover to support my cables (Male Micro to Female Micro, left angle so it faces down with my Galaxy landscape Micro port to the right bought from USBfirewire.com).

No I can change from tab to phone, no case removal and all the advantages of one cable connection to the phone with no case removal. Pics attached. Have fun.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] insight3fl:
As a side note, one of the reasons I could not stream line the assembly and had to retain the micro usb extension wire was the fact that the connector would not stay plugged into the dock micro usb male connector. I guess the weight of the phone in the dock kept it in place as id does not "lock" into the extension. Perhaps other brands work better. Also the usbfirewire.com cable is nearly twice the thickness of a regular cable and is pretty stiff.

I tried out the dock and connector today and it works great. I loaded Google Car app and it gives me the choice of S voice or Google Car app upon connection.

This has become a relatively common problem for the Galaxy S and Galaxy SII. It's been nicknamed The Red Screen of Death (How original).

From what I can tell in the other cases its been caused by a custom ROM. Are you using stock or a custom rom?

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madfysh:
Hm, no IP is normal since you aren't connected, but no MAC is kinda worrying.

Only one last advice is to flash GB rom, clean stock. Some people are having WiFi problems, although not like you, but I don't have any more ideas.

If that doesn't help then I believe it's hardware fault :(.

If you never flashed some other rom with flashtool, meaning you still have you original firmware on your phone, you can write down CDF number so you can go back to original fw before sending it for warranty(if you have any) repair.

how to get to that number read here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1604559

After you do that, flash .ftf file with flashtool.

You can use MT11i 4.0.2.A.0.62 GB CUSTOMIZED-NCB-Nordic WORLD-I 1255-1755 from here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=24983670&postcount=246
