I think wifi signal is a pure kernel thing. DerTeufel has quite some changes compared to the CM10 wifi driver:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] RoachPapa:
Hi, thx for you answer :) Yeah i meant kernel and not driver^^

I tested only sgs helly bean of my bro and his signal is better (wifi indicator shows same bar)

Also I tried JB Creedrom v7 (it isnt CM10 i think) and there i have a better signal too.

Mackay ROM = Best ROM ^^

Hi There!

I have to thank...

With Mackay ROM, a second battery and the hardware GPS fix (http://www.xda-developers.com/android/hardware-gps-fix-for-the-galaxy-s-i9000-and-i9001/) I like my phone :)

after more than 2 years I found a working GPS fix and a reliable and fast - and - uptodate ROM for my SGS! Samsung stopped updates after GB 2.3.6 cause they said its not possible to run ICS or JB... shame on you Samsung - You almost made the best phone... almost...

But now it runs!

Thank you Mackay :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kasper_h:
Creedrom is not based on CM10. It also uses the SGS3 launcher + widgets. On stock CM10 base (like this ROM), that can't be used.

I will look into the wifi driver, but never saw an improvement previously when trying to pick some stuff :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] erpurohit:
I agree he made some additional changes however I tried all the kernels (Sema, devil and yours) however I get similart WiFi strength in each case.

Might its only me who is getting similar results with each kernel.

Hi,

yesterday i tried Lucky Patcher and and some free games has ingame advertisement. With this patcher i could remove some advertises in CM9,

so i thought Mackay Rom wont have probs too. So i patched and then came infoboxes like: talk fc, superuser fc, gapps fc, and more apps.

I thought **** and removed all patches and deleted patched games (i had luck that i could do that^^). After restart Mackay Rom is working like butter again. But i was scared that superuser closed. I knew that sometimes gapps and app got fc on cm9, but superuser???
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kasper_h:
You should just not use Lucky Patcher :p

Nice.

You do a great job.

But could you please implement a more extended navbar (as e.g. in CRom-Mix)?

Your navbar means not a lot more in comparison with the hardware keys.

Been using your rom right when you made your first jb rom and I am on 1.4.7 now I can only say i like the simplicity of your rom, the functionality and the stability in it. Keep up the good work.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kasper_h:
I still think that a navbar, no matter how multifunctional, is a waste of screen space on our 4 inch screens. I added the normal navbar because it is a easy addition and some people requested it because of faulty hardware keys.

Looks interesting. I'll look in the cna source code to see how complex it is to add.

I have Voodoo Sound Plus 3.1.2.2. In Kernel Module Options i have red statement : "Device or kernel version not supported : not a problem if your kernel already support voodoo sound".

What's happened? I have MacKay version 1.4.7.

I can't run the function "Load sound driver:.!!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rodman01:
Hope it is not too OT :), but:

have you already tried to extract the 3 apks from a ROM with TW, where the SGS3 weather widget is working? and copied i to your ROM? (Think you need them all: AccuweatherWidget.apk; AccuweatherWidget_Main.apk; AccuweatherDaemon.apk)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kasper_h:
Voodoo sound module is loaded by default, so you don't need (and are not able) to manually load the voodoo sound driver.

This information should be shown in a green coloured line in the voodoo sound app.

Did you try this yourself?

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rodman01:
Yes just finished my test a few minutes ago, but only with copy it in data did not do the trick, nor in systems/app...the demon can be installed but not the widgets.

Tried also with additional download and install accuweather from play and this included widgets are working, but the S3 widgets still with no success.

Think you were right and its only working with TW :(!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Adalbert52:
Unfortunately, it isn't. It is red coloured.

Hi, i tried to install Accuweather like rodman did, but it wont work.

So i thought you are more expert on such things and could add it easily :D

I look into it again and maybe i find a way.

Your Rom is the smoothest of all,

I love its colour, its seems less pixelate..

but the Viberation problem is still there, you can't deactiviate it from any where, not in the messege or from sounds
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kasper_h:
I will not include leaked apps, all ROM apps are (and will be) build from source.

Can you be more precise on the problem?

i have set my viberation to off even then it viberates whenevr i recieve a sms or mms, i have also set it to "never" in my message setting. but didn't work...

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hansare:
Hi Kasper,

I understand your point.

However now you decided to implement Navbar you'd better take the extended version which is really functional and gives more then the replacement of hardware keys.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] erpurohit:
why you are posting same post to all roms thread
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] RoachPapa:
the old oi file manager couldnt do it too. They are useless. Thats why i install root browser first.

v1.4.7 with governor interactive is super efficient. I think i wait this time again on next update :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kasper_h:
You should go to settings in file manager and there you can choose the operations that are allowed.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] crimsondesigns:
Thanks!

I haven't updated your ROM since ICS from August.

I had issues installing from CM9, so I downloaded CM10.

I kept getting IMEI invalid error and realized it is because the data structures changed.

I copied the roms to external SD card and install went perfectly.

As such, I have only rave reviews of your work/efforts!

Thanks for including the Gapps as well, that is a nice change from the old days!

:highfive:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mikandlotta:
Have you checked your IMEI is valid? I think you may have 'lost' your IMEI in an earlier update and currently have the 'default'. The error message you received was CM10 now (about a month ago) validating that a valid number was present.

Search the threads and you will find many pages on this issue and the recovery solutions (basically restoring from backup EFS data file, if you have one, or going back to stock GB rom to rebuild the IMEI then return to CM10... after making a backup ...)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kasper_h:
New version 1.5.0. Changelog:

-Mackay kernel 0.97: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1842324

-back to VoltageControl (through NSTools) in stead of the stock regular UV code

-interactive updated & default

I moved to a different build-pc. I recreated the whole setup fresh. Many patches were removed or replaced or already merged. See below for the full set of patches on top of stock CM10. From next build on, there will be a separate changelog again.

There were also a lot of interesting upstream additions, like a CM file manager (with Dutch translations by me :)).

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Blondasisko:
No problems

Hi, I have been on 1.4.7 for about 5 days, no problems whatsoever. I have fewer apps installed, but still the rom is smooth and flawless. 2g/3g toggle works great, battery life is good even on 3g (comparing to CM7), all apps work. I switched to ADW Ex and it works as it should. Thanks for this stable system.

When someone calls, his or her voice is quite loud and slightly distorted. Is there any place I can change it?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] grifovunque:
i have installed version 1.5.0 and in nstools i cannot select the governor.

i have try to fix permission in recovery and also to delete nstools setting and init.id but without success.

there is a alternative solution???

thank you

for me this rom works very well...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] derboedi:
You can't change the governor in Mackay Kernel, only scheduler. If you need to change governor you will have to flash a different kernel. Stock governor is pretty good tho so why change it?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kasper_h:
If you go to Settings>Advanced Settings, you get into the galaxy-s-settings app. At the bottom, you have in-call volume controls.

You can still change the governor through settings>performance. Since ondemand/interactive have been improved, NSTools has been unable to change governor. I think interactive is doing a great job: smooth & battery efficient.

The improvements of ondemand/interactive are related to CPU power boost code. When changing to another governor, this is not used.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] RoachPapa:
v1.5.0 runs with interactive very efficient. Your modifications are nice^^.

The new file manager is better too. All in all good update :>
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Jimmy_X:
Interactive gov still "eats" more battery, but ondemand is perfect. Auto-brightness soesn't work!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kasper_h:
Autobrightness doesn't work at all? Are you/have you used other kernels?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Jimmy_X:
10x for quick answer.

No. Later I try latest Sema but now I am on Mackay 1.5.0 with kernel.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] grifovunque:
also I, autobrighteness doesn't work...

all stock with kernel 0.97 VC&BNL

;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kasper_h:
I have had problems with autobrightness after going to other kernels (sema/devil) and then going back to my own.

Those with issues, are you using BLN or stock LED version of the kernel?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] BlueFlame4:
I can confirm that. Since some updates auto brightness doesn't work anymore. Sometimes it works but sometimes not and I have to reboot my phone then.

After one week

still on 1.4.7, only one BSOD so far a couple of days ago. Still smooth, and fast. Apps load much faster than on CM7. Wifi signal seems weaker according to the icon, but I do not see it in terms of connection speed. Loads data as quickly as before. I see that the phone connects with modems faster than on CM7.

I had one issue with calendar - went back only 1,5 months and did not synchronise with previous events, no matter what I did. It has been widely described on many websites, as something to do with local calendar app. I uninstalled the calendar app provided with rom and installed one from Google Play, everything works OK now.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Jimmy_X:
Stock version here.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kasper_h:
I did use an patch in the past which caused the calendar to sync the full history (default is only two weeks). But it seemed to cause an increase in battery use by Exchange, so I removed it again :) And after using the Exchange once with full history syncing, the whole history stays synced after moving back to the default 2-week-history limit of Exchange - old items are not actively removed.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kasper_h:
Again, please let me know the kernel(s) you used.

I don't have a single autobrightness problem with the default kernel. I did have problem with the BLN kernel in the past (the BLN patch is combined with a specific library file that also controls the autobrightness). But I can't compile this file myself, so I don't know the exact origin of the problem.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] derboedi:
Some people might not know that you need to enable auto brightness under display settings in two different places.

Changed to Navigon now and we will see what´s going on.....
