batterybar center-mirrored does not work like it does on ics. the charging-animation only works on the right side. on ics it was on both sides i think.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AvRS:
I think krarvind knows it works on CM10 as it worked for me too. I sent him a logcat of GNow not working last night but what he needs is someone kind enough, to get a logcat of the setup process of the version he linked to in CM10 and then to try that same version on Slim Bean and get a logcat so he can check what's happening. I would've already done it but was in bed when he asked and at work now I've read it and out tonight so won't get a chance.

Oh and when posting logs or parts of a log it's cleaner to use the CODE tags if you can ;)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Mk.Xal:
Ok I will redo this on CM and SB and send the full logfile ;)

and fyi, I have testing gnow kravind version on cm10, working. Just give me some minutes to install these roms :p
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AvRS:
Good lad :good:

Did you get a logcat while doing the GNow set up in CM10 as this is one of the important parts as with both logcats krarvind can see what's different?

Thanks for your help :highfive:
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Mk.Xal:
Not on cm10, it is why I am reinstalling cm10 currently ;) Will post these logs in the next 30 minutes
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AvRS:
I get you now cool :) I'm sure krarvind will be up and active soon so will pick them up when he gets a chance. I'm off to start work as after all that's what I'm being paid for while sat at this desk :angel:
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Mk.Xal:
I have the chance to be a developper, so debugging android app while I am debugging my own web app is not a problem :p

So, Kravind, you can find the changelogs as attachments.

Hope that will help you.

thanks xal and bw. good news is its not the google now package, bad news is its not the google now package although i knew it wasn't that as it works on 8 other devices. so something in sgs2 audio libs. did it ever crash on cm10 and then start working? can anyone recall?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Mk.Xal:
Not a really good news :(

Gnow has always been working on cm10, never crashed for me..

If you want to try something before AVRS come back, tell me.

EDIT : I have checked the log and cannot see another error source other than the network location service.

Network location service apk is part of the Common package. I have tested and the network location doesnt work.

In other ROM thread, I notice that some rom maker have the same issue with Google Now FC when Network Location is broken.

I have replaced the networklocation apk by the one from CM gapps package but it doesn't work too.

Maybe other users can confirm (or not) than network location doesn't work.

edit2 : Tried to instal Maps and be "network located". I got a message telling me that I have to enable a geolocation source in the settings (both network location search location are enable).

I think there is no deal with Google Now, only with network location ;)

Maybe goole dev team has just missed to put a "if" statement in google now app to check if there is a network location source available. Maps seems to have this test.

Edit3 :

Attached is a logcat generated when I have tried to be geo located by Maps and by Chrome (on Google search page).

Find some strange entries (don't know if they are related to the issue).

W/LocationManagerService( 3277): com.google.android.location implements com.android.location.service.NetworkLocationProvider but its signatures don't match those in com.google.android.location.NetworkLocationProvider, ignoring
W/LocationManagerService( 3277): com.google.android.location implements com.android.location.service.GeocodeProvider but its signatures don't match those in com.google.android.location.GeocodeProvider, ignoring

Tried to had manually these lines to build.prop but nothing change.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] magli:
I can confirm that this is the same for me.

I also want to mention that the heat/battery problem that I was having was indeed the media scanner, and was resolved after adding ".nomedia" files to the clockworkmod directories of my sd cards. It seems that some of the files in these directories were causing problems for the media scanner process.

I am now having a fantastic experience with this rom. Many thanks to all those who have contributed.

Woohoo, finally! Got tired of paranoid android and was desperately waiting for this :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Didgesteve:
Cheers team for all your hard work.

Tried SlimBean in the past, but this latest version has put all my problems to bed.

Bluetooth now puts track titles on my car stereo, and I can send and recieve pictures in MMS.

Thanks again for all your efforts in making this rom so good.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] branaja:
Great rom, but I have problem with internet. It's very slow even when it's h or h+ :(

Also when I pull down status bar it says 'no service' or 'no internet connection' insted of my carrier label. Can anyone help me?

Also my micro sd card is not recognised in any browser even though in settings- storage it says 1.5gb available. Thanks :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AvRS:
Good to see you worked it out, I had the same when I did it and then figured out exactly the same as you did, it's very satisfying working it out yourself and it'll work as mine did ;)

For your Internet issues I'd suggest possibly trying other modems as that'll normally help with speeds and network dropping in and out. If you'd said it drops and never comes back then it may have been due to the ril crashes that sometimes happen but different modems can also help.

I can't help with the SD card issue as no idea what could cause that if the phone can see it. You could try unmounting and mounting it again.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] HardCorePawn:
Went to flash... and it crashed when trying to open the zip file!!! :eek:

Checked the zip on build box... tested fine... Re-copied the zip across from build box to phone... double checked md5sums... All OK... tried to flash again....

....

....

....

SUCCESS!!!!! :victory:

Now I am going to try adding in the "Only X notifications per Y seconds" customisation that I want... see if I can still get it to compile (and work!) :fingers-crossed:

EDIT: So after staring at the SoundSettings.java source code and wondering why it didn't look like the git commits I was looking at... going ahead and making some changes anyway... recompiling... reflashing... realising I had broken the "System Settings -> Sounds" panel (oops! :o)... searching for the "right" SoundSettings.java file... editing that... putting the other one back how it was... recompiling & reflashing...

I am happy to report I now have the "Less Frequent Notification Sounds" option in my own custom build of SlimBean :victory:

No more "bing bing bing bing bing" from GTalk! Or any other package (except "android" according to the source)... They get to beep once every 2 minutes... (configurable from 3s, 5s, 10s, 15s, 30s, 45s, 1min, 2min, 5min).... :D
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] branaja:
Will try other modems, I forgot about that, thanks :)

Sd is working, but in different folder.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] LMBBananaJoe:
I ve read it in slimics faq long ago, thx for reminding me, works perfect :)

you might find this thread informative, samsung indeed chose to big and aosp looks better with lower density imo ;)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AvRS:
Yes the mounting points moved in Jelly Bean and all JB ROM's are affected so now it's storage/sdcard0 and storage//sdcard1 which is symlinked to /sdcard and /extSdCard so you'll see all of these locations in any explorer or you should as I do in Root Explorer.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] HardCorePawn:
Ok... first real issue I've had with SlimBean... :(

Since I installed 2.5.0, I can't get "google sync"-type activities working on MobileData... ie. Can't access Play Store, Gmail won't sync etc... I can browse websites fine using the browser, so I know that the mobile data is working OK... and everything works perfectly (I can access Play Store and sync Gmail) if using WiFi??!? :confused:

At first I thought that maybe I had borked something with my custom build (and/or installing JusTunBean inverted Gapps)... so I did a full wipe... formatted /system, /data, /cache and dalvik... reinstalled using default slim-2.5.0-gt-i9100 and slim-gapps...

Unfortunately, I get the same result... everything syncs OK on WiFi, doesn't work when using MobileData??!? :confused:

Any ideas?? have I missed something??
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] fronti90:
Well this is just a lucky guess but try the following :

Go to settings - > wireless and network - > data usage and there hit your settings button (hardware button) and take a look at the check boxes.

Perhaps you disabled background data or auto sync.

Can you manually sync your Google account when on mobile data?

Does anyone have a recommendation for some inverted GApps - especially email? I spend a lot of time with email open and the whole time the white is draining the battery. A dark Facebook would be cool, too.

Thanks......
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] HANDSY:
There is a selection of inverted Gapps and frame work in the update me app.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] HardCorePawn:
Thanks for the headsup... but no luck there... auto-sync data is ON, restrict background data is OFF... it is very odd... I could have sworn this had been working before :confused:

Anyway, I tried wiping and flashing 2.4 but same thing... so I tried full wipe and flashing 2.3 and it was working OK...

so I just did the cache/dalvik format and flashed 2.4 over it... and it worked!!... so I flashed my custom 2.5 over that and it is still working!!?! :confused: :eek:

So I made a nandroid... and then tried a full wipe and install of 2.5 again... and again, it will not sync stuff via MobileData...

:confused::confused::confused:

Still I have it working (after restoring the working 2.5 nandroid)... I just hope I don't have to do a full wipe in the future... or I may face the same issues :p
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AvRS:
I've been monitoring the same information by espen so hoping to see what was changed and then we'll be able to get it in. When changes are merged they're generally easier to pick out as it's pretty clear what was added where experimental builds aren't always so obvious as the changes are still left open. Don't worry though I'll be keeping my eyes on the prize ;)

Not sure what you've done to get that happen but everything sync's absolutely fine over data and WiFi for me. You even said that flashing the stock 2.5 provided on the site gave you the same results didn't you? You're own build shouldn't have interfered though as you've only made that one change haven't you?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] HardCorePawn:
I know right... bizarre... I can't work out what the problem is... but like I said, I have it working now, so not a show stopper...

And yes, tried 2.4 and 2.5 unmodded... sync on mobiledata didn't work on either after a full wipe and flash??!?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AvRS:
It'll be hard to figure out without a logcat while you're trying to sync on mobile data. Pull it out via adb and see if you can see anything obvious. I've never experienced this on stock or my own compiles so don't think it's a general issue just something within your setup somehow. See what happens next time there's a release as never know may never happen again.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] quijote1:

I would prefer not to use Update Me. I'd rather have a link to an inverted Gapps zip so that could select just the apps that I want to use. Do you know of a link to a zip?

1st ROM: Slim ICS 4.2

2nd ROM: XWLPU NeatRomLite 3.2.1

Siyah 4.0.1

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] HardCorePawn:
UpdateMe will just download the flashable zip to your phone...

Personally, I have been using JusTunBean 2.0.3 inverted gapps... do a search on xda, thread is actually in AT&T SGS3 section, but should work on most CM10 or AOKP based ROMs... I'm using it on SlimBean 2.5...

Has an Aroma installer so you can pick and choose which ones to install...

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] krarvind:
holy crap, thats one change but a big one in kernel. i wonder if fluxxi kernel ever had mem leak though? shouldn't have as the kernel was still ICS source but only ramdisk changed. who is experiencing mem leak in my stock slim? not me but i am not a heavy user of sgs2.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] trveller72:
Memory is going up using slim 2.5.

I restarted the phone today when i had 200MB free to be sure i will not have any freeze, so i do not know how much free ram should be after 4 days of usage.

Edit: i thought free ram is wasted ram :rolleyes:

What i can tell is that definitely is a kernel issue and not JB. I have an Advent tablet with JB on for a few weeks and no freeze (512MB of ram!).

Thanks for the latest update btw.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AvRS:
It definitely does have it as all current JB kernels do (except now CM10) due to them using the ICS blobs which the I9305 blobs and other files have now fixed.

This is also another commit that was added shortly after espen released his experimental build but depends on the one already given: http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#/c/23924/.

Think we're gonna have to revert to a CM10 based kernel unless you can work your magic on Fluxi's.

I'm at home and online if you wanna discuss.

Thanks for a great ROM, mate. ;)

I had some 3G issues, but after many tests and fails, modem BVLPE works best. H+ connection is back.

Signal is still a bit weaker in comparison to ICS ROM, but what a heck, as long as I can dial/receive calls and have data coming through ...

I have a question, would it be possible to include this mod in your fancy ROM please?

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] z.alimohamed:
Bump
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AvRS:
The mod wouldn't get included as standard, you'd have to flash any mods you want on top of the ROM as it's not something that would be deemed useful to all and just another option. From looking at the thread however I don't see there being a CM10/JB version so therefore it wouldn't work at a guess on this or any other JB AOSP ROM.

There is no option for permanently deleting it, you'd have to find the responsible code, probably in framework-res or somewhere like that which will need decompiling, modify it and then recompile. I'm no expert but it's not a simple option to change I don't think.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ciprianruse88:
Are we going to see a slim bean version based on espen build with mem leak fixed?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AvRS:
Slim Bean isn't built on CM10 it's an AOSP ROM using the CM10 device tree and cherry picks.

Krarvind is looking at implementing the memory leak patches you just need to be patient.

Thanks

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Cayman.n2o:
Yesterday I changed my i9000 for i9100 and istalled Slim Bean since I loved it on my i9000 :)

I have a problem now.

Can't mount sd cards. When I try to change the usb connection settings, I click on mass storage but it automaticly switches back to media transfer.

Tried on Windows and Ubuntu pc, same thing.

Also mounting storage from CWM doesn't work. All worked fine with stock 4.0.3 rom.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AvRS:
Read my guide on post 3 as this is a mentioned anomaly on stock kernel in the ROM. Others have said it works on other kernels so you could try those. I don't have an issue as only use MTP anyway but obviously for some this isn't ideal. I'm pretty sure it was working in CWM though but may be wrong as can't remember the last time I used it then.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Nudnik_de:
Any news on this problem? I have the same issue...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AvRS:
I also have the same issue but not sure what's causing it yet. I've not tried CM10 to see if it's also in that ROM or not but hopefully will eventually be corrected in further updates if we can find what causes it. Luckily for me I only ever listen to it on full volume otherwise would be more of an issue.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AvRS:
Just to give everyone an update on the memory fix. Krarvind made the relevant kernel changes and I modified the blobs etc which should've worked however even though the memory fix worked not much else did :( For some reason we (possibly just me ;)) managed to break WiFi and data so it was useless as a phone lol We believe we may know what the issue was but it's not going to make it into 2.6 as it states on the WIP post on the website it was all dependent on everything working. Once CM have it merged we will attempt to do it again but remember all those using custom kernels will have to wait for them to be updated and it's highly unlikely we'll be able to use Fluxi any more and will have to revert to CM kernel or other updated custom kernel. I think krarvind is exploring the kernel further so he may still be able to do something with Fluxi we'll just have to wait and see.

We'll keep you updated and thanks as always.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] m4psycho:
I seemed to have a lot of battery drain with slim bean too, regardless of the kernel i used (tried stock, dorimanx, dream, siyah) but after using BetterBatteryStats, I found that most of the battery drain came from googlemaps waking up my phone to send data to google (using data + some GPS data), and in a later test my WiFi at home for some reason wakes up the phone a lot when I sleep. I didn't get around to sniffing out what was causing that, but after turning off location services (for the first problem), battery life while my phone was off was significantly improved. Just looking at the situation like this I'm more inclined to believe that this is not a problem with slimbean, but moreso a problem with increased data collection from google's part, which increases your battery usage. I'm not 100% sure though, and maybe something with jellybean just makes it more inefficient when it does that kind of stuff since I always had location services on before when I was on slim ICS? *Shrugs*
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AvRS:
As above, I turned off location services and GNow and battery life is brilliant for me, Google is greedy with their data collection and waste our batteries :p I found GNow to be one of the biggest battery hogs as it always uses location services to give you the latest weather/traffic and whatever else so turning that off saves lots. I know this is meant to be a great feature and stuff but am yet to find a good use for it and find it just a gimmick. That's the difference between JB and ICS m4.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] m4psycho:
Ohhh good thing you pointed that out. I did have gnow installed and forgot that the extra features did have a cost....that actually would probably explain where most of that battery life is going to. When I was trying to sniff out the root of my battery problems, I only saw that it was gmaps and didn't even think twice about gnow being the process that actually calls it!
