I believe Jocala's builds had surface dithering off, which is why on AnTuTu if you look at the ranking under "My device" the best 4.0.4 is 2699 and mine was 3457 and has been around the 3400s consistently.

The current build works great, and there really isn't much that can be done as far as settings to change it now. Through trial and error I have found using ANY custom Memory Management (v6 or Rom Toolbox) actually LOWERS scores compared to stock. It would appear the "stock" CM9 build for this phone is already as good as can be, unless someone released a stable OC kernel (which I would personally never use) the scores can't get better and be stable. Of course, testing with a faster SD card (which I have, but use with my tablet) would boost scores some, but that's not really the point. This is why I don't like benchmarks, but I just felt like testing it. :p

Has any resolution to vanishing text been found? This was an issue with the older builds.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] afwolfpacked:
@ creeve4

I haven't had 1 instance of vanishing text since 0928 release. Haven't even heard about it till you asked so I think that issue was resolved.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] creeve4:
Where can I find the 9/28 release? jocala's thread points to this one now.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] wrusry:
I am running the 1013 release and I have the vanishing text problem. The workaround is easy enough that it doesn't bother me much. I get the vanishing text in both my stock mail app (for corporate email) and with gmail. In case anyone hasn't see the workaround that someone else discovered: I just long press on the home button and swipe away gmail (and the email app). That resolves it. I have had to occasionally reopen gmail and reswipe it away.

Can OP use another file host. You're hitting bandwidth caps from these downloads
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] hendykhanh:
On 10/17 bug error camera :)
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Willielf:
Does the new build have the new kernel installed? And is the camera really broken?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Core2idiot:
I'll look into it, the reason I choose google drive is that I can upload to it from terminal (and from a shell script), but I haven't found another file host I can do that with. If there is let me know, I may end up setting up an FTP server, but my server currently doesn't like being stable. Also I have found no documentation of a bandwidth cap on Google Drive, could you tell me exactly what it complains about?

It should have kernel 3.0 as I built that in, and we only have preliminary support for our device in the kernel, so I would bet camera doesn't work, among other things. Stay before 10/17 if you want everything to work for the time being. But 10/17 should be faster.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] hendykhanh:
Yes that right kernel 3.0 faster than 2.6 . But it bug camera and display i see it not fine ??? i think next time fix it and torch will work :)
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] ETFoneHome:
Are you people flashing the new build over an older version or fresh start?

Just wondering if it makes a difference in stability. Gonna download later.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] detdett:
It's ymmv. I flashed it over without wiping and it's been working fine
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Core2idiot:
I should tell people that I purposely look to use the newest stuff available (which is usually (almost always) unstable), before 10/17 chances are will always be more reliable, because that's the currently officially supported kernel, I have no idea how much effort arco is going to put into kernel 3.0 but I'm guessing a decent amount, considering it's already booting.

So stuff that doesn't work on the current nightly as far I can tell is: Camera. I am guessing that haptic feedback/vibration doesn't work either. Does anything else not work?

What do you mean by "display i see it not fine"? As in there's static? Or as in it's just a black screen? I don't understand. I need more information...

[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] shakatu:
I'm not planning on updating to the most recent nightlies if they borked camera... :(

Besides, what improvements would a 3.0 kernel have in ICS? The way people were talking it sounded like 3.0 was more for JellyBean with Project Butter... :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Core2idiot:
Really there shouldn't be that much improvement. A good description I found quickly is here most of it doesn't apply to us though. We should still have performance improvements like jellybean (although they probably are smaller), some parts are probably more stable and that probably is it. If anyone noticed anything else let me know.

[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Willielf:
Yes. The gapps files are the same.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Core2idiot:
What do you guys think... Should I build when our device repos are unchanged? Or should I actually build as daily as I can even if it is unchanged. CM9 is no longer being updated for the most part, so factor that in.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Willielf:
Do you think the kernel will be updated?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] shakatu:
I think keeping a 2.6.x kernel build would be good... ;)

As far as nightlies go, yeah... they are only important if there is a change...

Heck, even the CM10 nightlies for my tab aren't even out every day! And it has official support!
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Core2idiot:
The Kernel should be updated, it just got a bunch of updates so I'll build a new build tonight, once I leave windows (oh the joy of netflix using silverlight [slightly annoyed face])... I am planning on keeping the 3.0 Kernel, I may end up having a 2.6 package that you flash and will make any nightly 2.6, although really most of the changes I see coming are in the 3.0 kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] shakatu:
It's mainly the concern of the camera etc...
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Willielf:
Yeah honestly, you should probably just post builds if there are updates. If there aren't any at all, then there's no point to posting any other than the waste of time. And I guess kernel updates is something that is really important right now, since there are many problems with it at this stage.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] afwolfpacked:
I dont think you want to start kernel 3.0.46 in the builds as of right now. There is a massive battery drain issue due to wakelock in the config.xml that has yet to be resolved. Be it also noted the 3.0.46 is in WIP stage and issues are still coming to the surface such as vibrate non functioning. Wait till camcory can work out the bugs or Arco if he has made github changes. Haven't gone to look at the github in past few days but sure there is changes already.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] ETFoneHome:
So there's no LED flashlight fix anymore?

So far I haven't found a flashlight app that works for our CM9.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] detdett:
Led flashlight is not the main concern right now. It will be looked at once the fundamentals are figured out
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] ETFoneHome:
It's obvious that flashlight is not gonna be a priority for fixing. But there was a brief moment when flashlight may have worked on CM9.

like here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=32274678&highlight=flashlight#post32274678

Moreover, the OP mentioned that alternative torch apps may possibly work in the issues section. That's what I was referring to.

So to make it clear, the question is:

Has anyone gotten the LED flashlight to work using any flashlight app from anywhere and on which CM9 version? :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Core2idiot:
ARCO has fixed many things today and I have been using 3.0 on cm10 for a while and it hasn't had battery drain and has been more reliable than 2.6.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Willielf:
Do you know if vibrate got fixed yet? Because I temporarily switched to cm10 also to test it out.

---------- Post added at 01:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:50 AM ----------

Yay! Vibrate/haptic came back :)

Although I am kind of missing CM10 already :/
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] ETFoneHome:
Just downloaded 1020 flashed from 1013. So far very smooth but no camera.

Vibrate works though so it's good progress.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] shakatu:
To reiterate... the latest 2.6 kernel build was 10/15 and this has a working camera and vibration. The only changes since 10/15 have been kernel so every build after that reflects updates for the 3.0 kernel. If you want camera, flash 10/15. The new kernel is supposed to be smoother and more stable other than camera.

If you are running 10/15 the app Flashlight HD LED has a working flashlight if you go into the menu and choose test tool, ON loop picture. It won't natively work yet.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] twitch330:
I've tried several different flashlight apps on CM9. I haven't found one that works.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Intercepter:
Just to be clear. The only way for camera to work at this point is if the fix is in the kernel since the actual dev on this has stopped. is that right?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] afwolfpacked:
The kernel development is still in wip on 3.0.46 and 19 hrs ago more changes was released by Arco. Some improvements was in CPU and some in net and so on. As far as I know nothing on camera was addressed the last kernel fixes.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] ETFoneHome:
I nandroid back to 10/13 and can confirm Flashlight HD LED does work as above. It's will do for now. Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Intercepter:
but if the camera is ever going to work now, it will have to be done though the kernel (or obviously go back to a pre kernel 3.0 version)

CM9 and Google Navigation losing street names

I was really enjoying CM9. I could work around the vanishing text and a few other bugs I was experiencing without much heartburn. However, I ran into one that really annoys me. It isn't exclusive to this device/build as I can google it and see that others also have experienced it. However, I never had this issue on the stock or Peach sunrise.

What happens is that Google turn by turn navigation will stop verbally announcing the street names and just say "turn right" or turn left" instead of turn "turn right on Maple street" for instance. The only way that I have been able to recover it is to reflash after a full wipe or to restore a nandroid. Eventually, it returns. I think it may be related to the TTS function.

Has anyone else experienced this?

Do you have a work around?

I think the last build that I was running was the 1013 build.

Thank you in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Core2idiot:
I also have this problem. I don't think there's a fix yet, although I haven't looked into it.

New record 4.0.4 stock 2.6 kernel!
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] EzraGarrison:
I ran into that problem only once, but for me it kept repeating "turn right on _______ St." every time a turn was coming up. It was repeating a single portion of the turn-by-turn instructions from the last time I had used it a week previous.

I ended up uninstalling and reinstalling Maps and all was well. I also booted to recovery and cleared cache/dalvik before reinstalling. Dunno which of those actions fixed it, but it never happened to me again.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] wrusry:
I have also heard of that variant of the problem. I tried your exact sequence myself earlier and it didn't work for me. So, I wiped my rom and started with the 1013 CM9, got it how I liked it and did a Nandroid. I will see how long it lasts and I will try not to flash another nightly over it.

Thanks.

Wow Core2idiot have fix dial 911 . Now this rom CM9 is Perfect :) everything working now !
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Core2idiot:
Not everything because I upgraded to kernel 3.0, so camera and torch don't work. I think I will build a 2.6 build with the 911 fix for everyone who wants stability (and probably post it on another host). Then I will resume on 3.0...
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] wrusry:
I agree that having 911 would be great. I wouldn't say that this ROM is perfect/bug free, even at that point.

Here are two things that still aren't working well for me:

1) I still have the vanishing text problem. I can get around it, but it takes about a minute for me to do it.

2) WIFI calling doesn't work nearly as well as the stock ROM. Lately on my 1013 ROM flash, texting through wifi seems to work well, but I can't seem to get a call through.

I am certainly not complaining, just clarifying. I appreciate the work (and have donated) that Jocala and others have done. When I go overseas and need wifi calling, I will use my nandroid of Peach Sunrise.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Core2idiot:
Just my curiosity, has anyone received vanishing text on a kernel 3.0 build?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] T679noob:
None whatsoever
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] wrusry:
Glad to hear that the vanishing text issue hasn't been a problem (for you) with the new kernel.

Can anyone comment on wifi calling with the new kernel (especially if it wasn't perfect for you with the old kernel)?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Core2idiot:
Just letting everyone know that today's build will include one of the two possible 911 patches (note I am still using the 3.0 kernel), please test, and let me know if it works and if it breaks anything.

[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] shakatu:
I had held off flashing the 10/15 build cuz I had the 10/13 build and figured there weren't any updates. Then I looked at the github and saw the 2.6 kernel had been updated on the 15th! First impressions are improvement!
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Core2idiot:
*Note* the "stable" build IS NOT 10/25, 10/25 uses the 3.0 Kernel.

I am working on posting a "stable" 2.6 build with camera, and everything (I am also removing the torch app as it does not work) ... But I do believe that the 3.0 Kernel fixed vanishing text, so that will still exist...
