Ug. Yes. It is checked. And I turned it off and back on. lulz.
[Epic 4G Android Development] racosta201045:
Ive been getting really crappy sound quality on calls. People complain that they can't hear me. That was on the 10/14. I flashed the 10/17 hopefully I don't get complaints
[Epic 4G Android Development] Flint420:
you might be on to something. yesterday i had bluetooth on most of the work day listening to music and taking calls and did not have to charge till 7pm. today no bluetooth no music and fewer calls and had to charge by 3pm.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MeetFace:
I have had abysmal battery life off late, but that may be due to the nitest kernel and modified for crespo. Probably not the former
[Epic 4G Android Development] socos25:
Unless you use TALK, make sure you signout. It is signed in by default. It has saved me tons of battery.
[Epic 4G Android Development] czechpunk:
Yep and I can barely hear them in my bluetooth headset. I've also noticed that my bluetooth headset will mute when I'm on a call, the other person can't hear me but i can hear them... I'll hang up and call them back and then it works fine except for it still being too quiet...
[Epic 4G Android Development] riceknight:
Having the same problem. Multiple people complaining they can't hear me on calls. Toggling power on and off sometimes helped.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MeetFace:
I'm having this problem as well. Which nightly are you using, and any modified modems/kernels?
[Epic 4G Android Development] :
He or she might be using modified kernel/ modems. I had the same issue using didhiy's kernel with ns4g's modem.
[Epic 4G Android Development] TPMJB:
Odd, I'm having the same issue with dudhiy's kernel+NS4G. I thought it was just the one woman not being able to hear me, so I switched to bluetooth. Didn't have the problem today, but yesterday I did.

Flash the new nitest16

I'm fine with call on my epic ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] chaostrodamis:
If you use dspmanager or voodoo sound. Check to make sure hi-fi recording is UNCHECKED in the wm8994 settings menu. I had that problem for months. This fixed it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] TracerBullitt:
Well, that's why/what I was asking. I don't want to come off as a bug. But its still an issue.

Lol, I was just talking about this, but with my wired headset. I've been told, by callers, it sounds like I'm walking through a wind tunnel or horseback riding.
[Epic 4G Android Development] czechpunk:
Yep, I knew about voodoo for awhile. I'm also not on any custom kernel or modem; I'm running stock with FC09 modem.
[Epic 4G Android Development] I Brick Phones:
Well like they say, YMMV. Maybe my hardware is a little different, but I notice a LOT less lag in my phone if I can step it up to 1200mhz.
[Epic 4G Android Development] slybarman:
Issue/observation:

Anyone else find any odd behavior from the BT profile? For whatever reason, it causes to display on my car radio to read "stop" all the time instead of any track or artist info, etc. The display on the radio shows a file folder. I also get ANRs from the Bluetooth Share app from time-to-time. I am wondering if the profile is somehow making the radio think the phone is trying to transfer files or something?

Prior to CM10, the BT conection to the car radio caused the display to show the more expected info, either "----" is nothing is playing or track and artist info it it was.

Still waiting for cmcirclemod battery
[Epic 4G Android Development] slybarman:
Circlemod battery was added 10/17 and works.

System settings -->system --> status bar -->battery status style.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Dropple:
Yeah, I know it's added from 1017, I'm on 1018 and there isn't circlemod
[Epic 4G Android Development] slybarman:
Weird that it came back out.
[Epic 4G Android Development] keithkevorkian:
There is a blue circle when you select hidden
[Epic 4G Android Development] czechpunk:
I just updated to 10/18 and I have that option; the theme you have installed may not have added it...
[Epic 4G Android Development] bbelos:
If you're using the nexus patches, I'm pretty sure you're replacing things like Settings.apk or SystemUI.apk (or even both, I haven't looked in a while). This means you you'll lose the settings, depending on where those patch files are coming from (too old, whatever).

The reason you get the circle when you pick hidden, is the old way had "hidden" assigned to option number 3. Now, the true option number 3 is actually the circle battery, but your settings menu still shows "hidden" as the label for option number 3, for the same reason as I explain above.
[Epic 4G Android Development] flastnoles11:
Which is why if you're using the ns4g modem patch you shouldn't be posting issues over here cuz you're not running stock cm10
[Epic 4G Android Development] keithkevorkian:
I'm not nor did I say it was an issue...simply just stating what I saw..
[Epic 4G Android Development] Epicnole:
Google calendar sync issues

Does anyone know if the calendar in CM10 is the "google" calendar app from the app store? Occasionally I have issues with the CM10 calendar syncing correctly with my google calendar. I will have events in my google calendar that don't show on my phone. If I enter it again on my phone it shows but is duplicated on the web.
[Epic 4G Android Development] styles420:
And what you saw leaves no possibility that you are running an unaltered (whether by a mod, or a bad flash) build. No one else has reported downloading a build where the updated settings app was left out (both components made their debut in the same nightly build), so there is no way your rom could contain the code for the circle mod while lacking the updated settings app - either you did install one of the mods that includes a modified settings menu, or somehow the flash process failed to update the settings menu (the luckiest bad flash I can imagine, lol - it still boots)

So if you really didn't install any mods, I recommend a reflash - just because everything appears to be running fine for the moment, it doesn't mean there are no errors occurring under the surface.
[Epic 4G Android Development] nastypup:
Have you tried GoSMS Pro? It splits messages and all attachments are OK, so far.
[Epic 4G Android Development] A_Flying_Fox:
Screen still sleeps while watching flash videos on 10/18...

Edit: this is where you come in, styles. Help a rasta out
[Epic 4G Android Development] AproSamurai:
Couldn't explain why, but in this case maybe the logical answer would be that playing flash video within a browser isn't being counted as playing video but instead an action of the browser, or inaction. So your screen is sleeping because it doesn't know that you're actively watching a video, it just abides by the preset sleep timer.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Dropple:
I'm sorry, I forgot about settings.apk on the patch

Thank you for reminding me ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] nastypup:
For anyone having a problem flashing nightlies and gapps, I suggest ROM Manager Premium. It finds the correct versions and asks you want you want to install/wipe. It saves lots of time finding the ROM, downloading it, booting into recovery, wiping, finding the download on the sd card, installing the ROM, finding the correct version of gapps and downloading it, finding it your sd card and flashing. All of that is done in one easy step. Thanks to the genius of Koushik Dutta, this is possible. If you don't know who he is, you should. He is Koush of ClockworkMod. It's worth the $7 and you will be supporting his work.
[Epic 4G Android Development] A_Flying_Fox:
Yes...I want to know why...I wish bbelos would answer..I can't tell if this is on purpose or not.
[Epic 4G Android Development] counterfeit187:
In the calendar app settings make you choose which calendars you want to sync, you may have more than one Google calendar and not be syncing all of them
[Epic 4G Android Development] bbelos:
AproSamurai's explanation is pretty good. The browser doesn't distinguish between a web page that has a video and a news article. It isn't designed to keep the screen on, no matter what the page content. My recommendation to you is to try and find a market app that has the ability to enable a screen wakelock. If you're lucky, there's one out there that has a homescreen toggle widget of some kind.
[Epic 4G Android Development] adamdelozier:
Try watching a video on the Yankees website...or actually any mlb site. Watched a 5 minute video...screen never shut off. Not sure if that is a flash video, but I am running completely stock 1017 nightly.
[Epic 4G Android Development] offtohavasu:
Had some weird behavior on 10/17, been driving up the coast of Cali the last few days, and every once in a while bt connected to car radio (Chevy equinox) I'd get dsp manager force close and bt would turn off. Sometimes it would lock in "turning on Bluetooth" and I'd have to reboot phone.
[Epic 4G Android Development] styles420:
Wow, I get a specific request for help the one time I don't check XDA with my usual frequency, lol. Still, I appreciate your request :)

But I agree with Apro, and the odds are that he probably worded it better than I would have :)

I do have a few thoughts that might help us to understand the issue a little better, though. First, since the flash plugin itself doesn't request any permissions, the screen wakelock would be up to the browser.

Second, if this problem did not exist prior to ICS or JB, then perhaps the browser had a way to find out what kind of flash content was being played - we wouldn't want the screen to stay on just for an ad, right? If that was the case, then that function could be broken due to changes between ICS/JB and previous android versions... that could mean that it is a function in the flash player, which we can't fix.. or it could be on the browser's end, which means you'll have to wait for an update or try other browsers (which I think you already did - I'll re-read your past posts in a moment).

I don't know if that helps much - it doesn't change the recommended workarounds. The screen lock app is a good idea - I just make sure to swipe (not tap) my finger across the screen periodically, but that can still cause the video to pause and so forth, and isn't ideal for longer videos. It works for me because I don't watch a lot of flash videos on my phone, and I don't like installing more apps than I need (which is why I do a lot of file operations through the terminal instead of using a file manager, lol)
[Epic 4G Android Development] samdsox:
For any nightly addict

For anyone who's sick of downloading 200 mb files everyday this is a perfect app. CyanDelta Updater link to android market. As I understand it, it only downloads the changed files and then puts them in the cm rom you are already on but updates the system.prop to the right information. I hadn't updated since 10/05 and this thing condensed the changes to 20 mb from 200 mb. Plus there was no need to reinstall apps/gapps. You guys should check it out.
[Epic 4G Android Development] adamdelozier:
My question to the devs....this would be considered a stock install of cm10 would it? I would foresee a lot of possible "bugs" being found. Its not going to stop me from trying it...just trying to avoid a flame war if by chance someone posts a bug using this install method. Thanks!

Edit: Bad luck here...Soft bricked going from the 10-12 to the 10-18 nightly using this...Oh well, I guess its been a while since a full wipe and an ODIN...Much easier to just download the complete file and know what your getting...USERS BEWARE
[Epic 4G Android Development] AuGmENTor:
I have this problem as well. But it was also in CM9. I don't think it's something that will be fixed. Does it do it to you with Pandora as well? I'm pretty sure it displays correctly for me with that. In the end, the phone works flawlessly through head unit BT, and I can play files. All is right with the world since they fixed dock. Depending on your unit, why not just use a USB card reader and a micro SD to play music? For as cheap as they are, I have a 32 gig that I leave in the head unit, while at the same time, with phone docked and BT enabled interrupts music for call, gps, what have you.

I have the JVC head unit (KD-X50 BT) http://resources.jvc.com/Resources/00/01/53/15349.PDF that is bluetooth, card reader, and aux input. No CD player at all. Can't say enough good things about it and how well it compliments the phone. I think the documentation of the unit mentions specifically problems with track and artist info being displayed with certain phone/ OS configurations.

---------- Post added at 07:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:56 AM ----------

I saw this right before I tried it. So thanks. I'm not in the mood right now to deal with a boot loop or any other shenanigans.
[Epic 4G Android Development] slybarman:
LOL - I have the same radio. I use BT for everything. The display read what one would expect when using stock and some of the GB roms, so it must be something in the CM BT profile. It is not a big issue, just a minor annoyance because the radio shows 'stop' all the time and no longer shows the clock, etc.
[Epic 4G Android Development] WoodmanMN:
I have a Kenwood head unit with bluetooth, and since the 10-14 update it now tells me on the head unit when I have a SMS message. It didn't do that on the stock rom, and the phone and audio are working as well as ever.
[Epic 4G Android Development] slybarman:
Cool - that does not seem to be a feature set on our $99 special radio units. :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] sureshot007:
Anyone have charging issues? I always plug mine in overnight, and this morning, for the second time in 2 weeks (so, not that often), it didn't charge overnight. It says charging, the light is on, but it didn't actually charge.

Is anyone else having the issue of getting 'gallery has stopped' when trying to open the camera in nightly 18?
[Epic 4G Android Development] DJSmoove:
I had that problem on 10/14 I fixed that by clearing the caches and rebooting the phone.

I got a question if someone knows this, is it safe to download the zip from Cyandelta app and use that update instead of downloading the full zip? I'm tempting to use this app.
[Epic 4G Android Development] adamdelozier:
Look a few posts back...I am running TWRP recovery and i attempted to use CyanDelta to go from 10/12 to 10/18. Soft Bricked my phone...It downloaded and analyzed fine, but the install failed and got me stuck at the Samsung screen. Could be related to TWRP. Be ready to ODIN in case of issues.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Nashdogg:
It was just mentioned a page back. Someone tried it and soft bricked his phone. You can try it but would have Odin ready in case something goes wrong.

I definitely need to say that starting fresh has made a huge difference in the performance of my phone. I am actually very thankful for the soft brick that occurred, I am now running nightly 1018, and I cannot believe how fast it is. No tweaks, no juice defender and everything is running fine. I am using the SIO scheduler and the interactive governor , and I am experiencing no lag whatsoever. The completely stock experience seems to be setup just right. I know we are always looking for the latest and great enhancement, but I don't think this needs anything!
[Epic 4G Android Development] DJSmoove:
Sorry about that, I just read the posts on the last page. Thank you for the heads up, I'll think I stick with the full zip of that right now. I'll probably move that once they fixed the bugs on that along being out of the beta stage.

Sleep Drain

So, what makes sleep drain higher on CM builds compared to TW ROMs? I am speaking strictly of

battery drain during sleep

, as confirmed by the battery use graph and CPU Spy deep sleep (taking Better Battery Stat out of the picture to remove additional drain possibly added by it).

With my own custom TW ROM, I would have a sleep drain of LESS than 1% per hour. Going to bed with 100% fully charged battery and waking up with 94-98%. With CM, last night it was 11% drain over only 5 hours (yes, I need more sleep).

I made sure nothing kept it fully or partially awake (I froze many apps, including system ones, for this test run). The battery graphs confirmed that wifi was mostly off (set to keep wifi on during sleep only when plugged in) and the phone had negligible wake times. CPU spy showed over 98% of deep sleep. The setup is pretty much the same between my custom TW and the CM10. The deep sleep time and wakelocks are comparable, but yet...

CM just drains more doing nothing.

EDIT: if I could make an uneducated guess, it would be the drivers. Perhaps the radio infrastructure stays on higher power level than with Samsung stock drivers? I have LED notification turned off completely. Looking at the use graph, wifi was on very little/neglibile in my 5 hours CM test (with "only when plugged in" setting), yet it drained a lot more than wifi always staying on in TW (with never off setting). 4g wimax is off as I don't have it. On another test with wifi always on in CM, the sleep drain was still way higher than TW's.
[Epic 4G Android Development] nicenice19:
I did this earlier with no issues so as said before YMMV
[Epic 4G Android Development] TONYSALEM78:
For the folks having issues with flash video.. I had an issue on the first preview. Over in the Epic 4G apps section there is an Adobe flash apk. I have been using it since with no issues with any flash video and no screen shutting off.

Hope this helps.

If this has been mentioned before I did not see it and I read every page of this section. If it has well then forgive me and move the heck on to the next post :beer:

[Epic 4G Android Development] czechpunk:
In regards to WIFI I have noticed the same thing and mentioned it before. When it goes into deep sleep (on any sleep setting) it cuts WIFI off and then tries to reconnect, only to fail again and only use 3G from then on. It's as if the WIFI settings were not working or something...
[Epic 4G Android Development] AuGmENTor:
Obviously still a work in progress. The actual phone doesn't auto- rotate when in call (while docked). CM9 used to display caller id (on the radio) and let me dial off the radio. In all honesty, as far as the display goes (clock, texts, what have you) with the phone docked, I get all the HUD I need anyway.
[Epic 4G Android Development] nastypup:
It happened to me a few times. I threw out a charger that I now think wasn't broken.
[Epic 4G Android Development] slybarman:
I noticed that it does not rotate during a call in the dock. Nothing is perfect I guess. Stock GB had a bug where the dial pad would not show up at all in landscape mode. That used to drive me nuts.
[Epic 4G Android Development] czechpunk:
Is there anything under settings that I'm missing that will allow the holo unlocker to not be half of the screen when docked in landscape? It's still way off the edge of the screen and it's sometimes hard to unlock the phone...
[Epic 4G Android Development] samdsox:
Did you make sure you clicked the latest rom you were on? Thats what happens if you choose an old or wrong zip file
[Epic 4G Android Development] AuGmENTor:
CM9 had the same bug. The keypad never laid out right. I believe it's like that to this day.

But you're right, in the end we're lucky to have something that works as well as these ROMs do.
[Epic 4G Android Development] counterfeit187:
I know the reboots are a known issue, but they appear to be happening more frequently on the last couple of builds. They have been happening to me during phone calls, and I think it is related to other notifications during the call
[Epic 4G Android Development] klharalson:
Are you updating through the CM updater? If so, I kept having reboots until I wiped dalvik and have not had any since as long as I wipe first then install through recovery instead of through CM updater.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rundmcarlson:
I regularly get less than 1% battery drain per hour at idle. Every day I go to class and take it off the charger at 7:30. I don't use it until noon and I am never below 95% battery left. Did a test today and over 5 hours I only lost 4%. In that time I got 3 notifications for emails, and turned the screen on to clear them out each time. You should check that your battery is properly calibrated. I remember way back with my hero, I had to recalibrate every few flashes for some reason.
[Epic 4G Android Development] AuGmENTor:
One does not simply... Re calibrate ones battery. But let's say you could, how would you do it?
[Epic 4G Android Development] BoominSVX:
I've always gone into CWM, wiped battery stats, then powered the phone off and pulled the battery. Push the power button a few times and wait about 30 seconds to a minute before putting it back in. When you get back into android, you may find a substantial difference in the reading of your battery percentage. ...or you may not. Sometimes my phone would drop from 10% to zilch in minutes. This would always fix that issue.
[Epic 4G Android Development] slybarman:
That is a known bug in the Epic when you reboot at <50% battery. Has nothing to do with stats.
[Epic 4G Android Development] socos25:
Correct, and even though it drops from maybe 50% down to 14% if you watch it the percentage will either stay at that for a long time or actually climb overtime like it is charging. In my experience it may be reporting the incorrect % but you have lost no battery.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rundmcarlson:
You have to charge the device fully, then go into recovery and select wipe battery stats from the advanced menu. Reboot the phone normally and use it until it dies WITHOUT RECHARGING IT. It is imperitive you don't plug it in until it has died to the point of the phone crashing. Once the phone dies, plug it in WITHOUT POWERING IT ON and let it charge until the charging light indicates it is done. Then remove from charger, power back on, and enjoy a properly calibrated battery. When I do this, I drain the battery by putting 4g on and playing music out of my speakerphone, while having navigation sending me somewhere. Thatll kill the battery in 2 hours or so, and you can start the recharge. That way you can let it sit and do its thing properly without having to worry about running out midday or plugging in before you should.
[Epic 4G Android Development] A_Flying_Fox:
thank you! that all makes sense. I just need to enable wakelock in the browser. or find one that has it. didnt think of the flash not having permissions would be a problem lmao

but now ive run into a different problem...ive tried USB tethering for the first time on cm10 and it only outputted 3g speeds...it didnt make sense because the phone was connected to 4g and speedtest showed it getting 5mbps DL speed and wifi tether gave out 4g speeds but then speedtest on the pc kept showing .20-.30mbpsDL speeds...:/
[Epic 4G Android Development] AuGmENTor:
Sounds like a plan. I will do this in the morning. Thank you sir.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bbelos:
Is this with the phone's screen on or off? If you let the phone screen go off, it probably went to sleep, and 4g shuts off, defaulting you back to 3g. I'll try and put up a test build this weekend that includes a patch to keep 4g connected when the phone goes to sleep, as well as some other test goodies.
