I agree it is definitely not to be a top priority change, and I was under the assumption that changing the apk and the build in the compiler was a nearly effortless task. If this is not the case and it is more in depth task then it would certainly stand to reason placing it on the back burner. Just a little bit of info on how SuperSU is superior to superuser on more than a cosmetic level. I use Gemini to modify wake locks on most apps I have installed. This serves 2 purposes, significantly improves device performance and moderately improves battery life. In my case (and I have tested this both in cm9, 10, and stock) superuser fails to for some reason give Gemini proper access to the binary to edit the wake locks. The issue does not occur with SuperSU. What is interesting is this issue only effects some users, variables that may be the cause have not yet been identified but using SuperSU has been an effective fix for anyone with the issue. That is actually how I became introduced to the app in the first place.

I cannot speak for myself on your specific build in regards to stability issues as the last CM10 build I tested was crlogic's latest, and in that one I was experiencing at least 2 lockup/reboots daily. I suggested it only because I had read some recent posts by users claiming it was still occurring with the build that capacitive lights are now working in. Which I identified as your build.
[Galaxy S II General] bestavrosg:
Been running your rom for the past few days... I have noticed graphical tear when switching between a few apps (Youtube, Camera, Instagram. I have had probably 3 random resets in total, one while using the Facebook app and twice while using google Chrome. Otherwise the ROM seems to be pretty stable and I haven't noticed much else. Also even after calibrating my battery this rom seemed to drain my battery quite quickly which could be due to the notification lights. as for the auto brightness sensor I have noticed issues with that also it seems that perhaps the sensor values are incorrect or something
[Galaxy S II General] ZarboktheMunificent:
I get the graphic tearing when I am coming from certain apps (mostly Plague Inc. and the Camera), I get it inconsistently if I pull down the notifications menu while in the lock screen. Sometimes it happens and it glitches, sometimes it doesn't.

Otherwise I've had no issues.
[Galaxy S II General] bestavrosg:
Also for whatever reason sound search from jellybean doesn't show up at all on this rom
[Galaxy S II General] skodazek:
I'll be honest. I'm chomping at the bit waiting for next build. I have a strong feeling it will mark the point in which I'll be ready to make the switch from cm9 to CM10 as my daily driver

this is on cm9. light-moderate use. there is still 20% left.

Just Recieved my battery today gentle. Instructions say to charge it by phone for 10 hours, then drain the battery to empty, repeat this step 4 times..... But should I just Charge it right away now for ten hours, or drain whatever life it has come with first

Can you install CatLog (https://play.google.com/store/apps/...SwxLDEsImNvbS5ub2xhbmxhd3Nvbi5sb2djYXQiXQ..)?

Next time you have the issue pm me the log please. I also had weird issue with audio but during phone call.

Thanks

EDIT: BTW for all of you who try new ROMS and want to help: installing CatLog is a very good idea!!! It really tell what is wrong with a ROM and it TOTALY help developper to understand what's wrong.
[Galaxy S II General] deafened:
I didn't know this was available. Thanks. I know logcat helps. I work all day and can't hook up to a PC to run logcat on it.
[Galaxy S II General] mandroid717:
yes follow the instructions. you should always full drain the battery before charging.
[Galaxy S II General] deafened:
I am currently running the newest build. I get the periodic graphical tearing. I actually went back to stock and did a fresh install. I'm not having the YouTube issue as per the screenshot.
[Galaxy S II General] 4runner10:
Hmmm. Maybe next rom I'll do a fresh install. I've just been flashing new roms and suffering through the YouTube issue. Weird thing is, when I try to grab a screenshot of the issue, the control shows in front of the video even though it is really behind the video. Strange...

I just installed cat log, and see a colour setting for the notification lights when they toggle on/off. Does anyone know if that means you can program custom colours there? That'd be sweet!
[Galaxy S II General] skodazek:
Good call. Fresh install is the way to go.

Some updates for lunetick & crlogic.

The following is based off lunetick's Oct 22nd build.

Contrary to my previous statement, 3D performance in applications such as games etc is in fact significantly better in Cm10 than it is in Cm9.

Graphical tearing still occurs when a change of resolution occurs or changing to and from 3D and 2D drivers.

Note: in the interest of troubleshooting the graphical tearing lunetick, you mentioned reverting to cm9 graphic drivers. Would we loose the aforementioned performance benefit with that change? I tested multiple apps including 3 seperate benchmark tools as well as personal experience in games and there is in fact a significant improvement in 3D frame rate across the board.

YouTube, Netflix, etc confirmed on screen controls being occluded by video image and are thus unusable.

Stability drastically improved over last build I tested.

Have not had a chance to test Skype yet but last cm10 build I tested (the build prior to 20121022 by crlogic) there were issues with front facing camera freezing up and causing Skype client to stop responding. Plan to test in about 6 hours. Will provide results.

Nearly 24 hours without a reboot or lock up.
[Galaxy S II General] lunetick:
I ll release a new build sync with CM10 M build near the end of the month. Not sure i ll be able to fix the graphical bug for this release , but im working on it. The kernel is a real mess... Support for our phone is removed in CM10... I work on it when i can.

I tried but changed my mind. That was too painful. I now just try to add support for our phone with the new kernel.

Anyone manage to successfully flash stock bell ics firmware with cwm?

Want to do some testing and I tried flashing the nearly 500mb official bell ics firmware from Samobile site and it gives me fail msg.

---------- Post added at 10:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:04 AM ----------

Another testing update.

As mentioned before I have experienced a 3d performance improvement. The one exception to this is the mmorpg order and chaos, which I experience a drastic reduction in performance
[Galaxy S II General] koodiifin:
I had some sort of ril crash yesterday where i had no signal until reboot.

Im running the ics no bell apps rooted zip right now. I factory reset and formatted system, then flashed the zip and its working good.
[Galaxy S II General] lmarranzino:
The other thing I did with the rooted ICS was a dirty flash after it seemed to improve signal strength as well... I am on the at&t network here in CA though.

I am very impressed with the improvements yet I did find some freezing still and lag or tearing when going when moving screens. The signal issue is still one of my issues out of nowhere I will loose all signal phone and data. I took off Juice defender as I know it often does not play nice at times. BUT it still went on I also for the record had done a fully clean install on all counts.

Still watching and cheering you all on...Lunetick you have a incredible job here THANK YOU ....
[Galaxy S II General] mandroid717:
thanks for all your hard work my friend.........
[Galaxy S II General] skodazek:
Got a bit of an issue here with ICS stock firmware and hoping you guys can help me out with it.

I cannot install any more apps from Google Play market because my device thinks the usb storage is full (internal SD). In settings/storage it lists 2gigs being used by apps, 300k being used by pictures, and 8 gigs being used by misc (which is represnted by the color red on the bar above). Then it says 9gb free.

Root Explorer confirms 9gb of space is available as well as usb debugging on pc. The reason why i cannot install anything is because the os believes 8+ gigs is used by this phantom "Misc" data.

Any ideas on how to fix?

PS. I have tried formatting internal SD, re-flashing rom, etc.. no matter what in settings/storage it shows this 8+ gig of misc data, altho it still says 9 gig free.

---------- Post added at 02:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:24 PM ----------

Wow figured it out, very odd problem indeed.

Stock ICS rom was mounting my External 16gb microsd card to a directory within the internal sd mount.

For example:

/mnt/sdcard = internal phone usb storage

/mnt/sdcard/external_sd/ = aftermaket microsd I purchased to store music, etc.

The misc phantom data was actually the music stored on my external SD card, while it wasnt absorbing the space on usb storage, its presence as a mount within a mount was confusing android.

Now this leads to another question, how do I change mount pathing?
[Galaxy S II General] CharlieMPK:
Hey! Super-noob here.

I've owned this phone for about two months and I have been following the development for a while. It really sucks that this phone isn't more popular!

It's an amazing piece of technology.

Now, I don't know too much about developing/building CM ROM's, but I'd love to help out anyway possible!

Whether someone can teach me how to build (I learn quickly!), bug test, run around the streets telling people to buy the phone, ect.

Just let me know! I want to help out as much as possible! :D
[Galaxy S II General] mastacoo3:
What do you do when you are preparing to reload your stock ICS? Do you boot into CWM and clear things and do a factory reset and such? Then boot into download mode and do the rest from Odin with the stock firmware from samsung?

Just curious if I followed the same steps when I did it before.

And you should make the switch to lunetick's recent build as your daily driver. It's fabulous. :)
[Galaxy S II General] skodazek:
I change roms a few times a week in my testing. Already done with ics stock, back to cm now. Just wanted to know how to change mount points for reference. Got that figured though too.
[Galaxy S II General] 4runner10:

[Galaxy S II General] skodazek:
Back using cm9 now.

CM10 is so very close to daily driver for me there is only one thing holding me back now.

Performance in Order & Chaos. (mmorpg by gameloft)

Interestingly enough nearly every 3D application and game performs as good and in a few cases better than in CM9 except order & chaos for some reason which looses half its frame rate. While I don't expect development to change due to this, I am hopeful when lunetick performs his graphical changes it also as a result enhances order & chaos performance.
[Galaxy S II General] globexdesigns:
20121022 build still experiencing the phone call issues for me. Which is a total deal breaker if you can't take or make phone calls.

I'll try rolling back a couple of builds to see if it was introduced recently.
[Galaxy S II General] 4runner10:
Haha, definitely a deal breaker if your phone doesn't work for phone calls. Did you do a dirty or clean flash when you put on the latest build? Clean flashes seem to solve these one-off type issues (has anyone else experienced phone call issues?).

I just posted to that forum and saw 5 or six post for our phone. hopefully that will keep going and we will have a forum sooooon......

On another note I have been having some issues with Bluetooth. If i am on a call and try to connect or disconnect to Bluetooth it ends the call (on disconnect) or just doesn't connect at all.does any one else have this issue. i use BT alot and would like to be able to do this, note it did work in ICS. but there is Way to many advantages to having JB that i cant go back to ICS.

[Galaxy S II General] koodiifin:
Hi, sorry I meant to say carrier unlocked (SIM unlocked). I'm pretty sure CM10 doesn't unlock the SIM lock. Correct me if im wrong though. :)
[Galaxy S II General] deafened:
I believe it is. I used to travel to the USA a fair amount, and would just pop my T-Mobile SIM in with no issues.

If you know someone with the same size SIM on a different carrier you could test it.
[Galaxy S II General] skodazek:
I would try this. I was unable to find any resource conforming or denying this.

Let me also note, I after checking every resource I have I was unable to find a solution that didn't have a monetary cost associated with it.

Toss another carriers micro sim in while using CyanogenMod, I wouldn't be surprised if it worked. Sorry I could not be more helpful.

Problems going back to stock

Hey guys, I've decided to sell this phone as I'm going with the Nexus 4. I did a complete backup, wipe, and reflashed the stock rom and recovery in Odin, and it said successful. However, when I turn the phone on, it just hangs at the glowing Samsung logo. Sits there forever, not doing anything. Can't seem to figure out what's wrong. Any advice?

EDIT: Solved it! I was just being impatient.
[Galaxy S II General] auditman:
Nexus 4 has no lte???
[Galaxy S II General] Marilius:
No, it does not. But since LTE bends this battery over and has its way with it, I turned it off a long time ago. Never really needed it anyway, I found HSPA+ fast enough for downloads. And streaming works fine.

JB 4.2 Camera App.

In case anybody is interested, I thought I'd let you know that I just flashed the Jelly Bean 4.2 camera app from forums.androidcentral.com/verizon-galaxy-nexus-rooting-roms-hacks/220830-jelly-bean-4-2-camera.html and it works perfectly on my phone. I'm running the stock ICS so no guarantees, but by all reports it works fine on CM10 as well.

Actually, a couple of problems which don't show up on other devices:

- videos don't save - everything seems OK but video is not there

- photo editing doesn't work. Hitting the "tiny planets" buttons either does nothing or kills gallery app.
[Galaxy S II General] Siavash8:
Back to CM9 for now. I loved CM10, but even after fixing the permission the random reboots were very annoying. Everytime the phone booted back on, there was an update available, so maybe the reboots are related to the automatic updates?
[Galaxy S II General] 4runner10:
I noticed the same thing. I tried to disable automatic updates, but it seems like the issue happens when the system detects an update is available. Anyone else experienced this?
[Galaxy S II General] lmarranzino:
I have also posted in that Forum Ann has also replied to me as well.

Having some issues I actually had sold (not shipped yet) was resetting the phone and now it is random freezing. I had CM on it prior than wiped and cleaned and installed the stock debloated ICS on it. Was running great then today I reset and it started acting up. I re-downloaded twice and installed still doing it.

Not sure if there some kind of aftermath on it or not. I ordered a jig that I can use to reset back to GB with and will hopefully just start over and see how it goes. I will be moving onto the new Nexus on arrival ... But I do really like this phone in all.

New Android Keyboard

Ladies and Gents,

If you're interested in the new Android 4.2 keyboard, check out the following link:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1964663

Installed the apk on my SGH-i757m running CM10, and it's pretty sweet. Thought I'd mention it to our little group.
[Galaxy S II General] RPetec:
Yes, the focus is a bit odd. There's no "touch to focus" in our device (same as the camera cm10, but the stock ICS had touch to focus...) but on a friends GS3 the touch to focus works perfectly. It seems like you have to hold down the shutter button and it takes a second or 2 to focus - once the "inner circle" goes green it is focused.

There's definitely a few oddities with it and I don't think it's really ready for primetime yet - although the PhotoSphere works pretty well.

When I moved to CM10 the photo editing began working too, which was nice to see.

---------- Post added at 11:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:42 AM ----------

I personally like Root Explorer, but according to a post on Google+, CyanogenMod just merged a custom built file manager into the CM10 root so our next build should give us another file manager to experiment with.
