People use screen on time as a measure because generally, when the screen is on, you are doing demanding things with the other components of the phone: CPU, GPU, data etc. Therefore if you are able to lower the active (not just idle) power draw you can increase screen on time...

Codeworkx said himself that he is going to stop supporting the i9100 and that 4.2.X will be the last update.

---------- Post added at 02:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:32 PM ----------

The main point is as well it will be harder to develop a custom ROM when Google release their new OS. Samsung are terrible with sources codes and that's why its still in the nightly stages, other phones are on monthly. It would be a real pain for most developers. Ofc there will be some developers that will try but the majority I believe will stop that's from what I've seen. I.e paranoid android have already stop supporting the I9100
[Galaxy S II General] C-Drum:
Which ones? We've had no new blood in. Espenfjo SII broke, Enthropy512 had enough of Samsung after 4.2 and Codeworkx has stated he doesn't need the hassle Samsung means. Who is the developer left for the SII?

MHL

hello there

I have got a question regarding MHL. Now i know it is not officially supported but it did work on my device when i was running CM9(siyah kernel).

Ofc only video playback in MXPlayer worked but i was happy with that.

I have now upgraded to CM10.1(w OP's kernel) and everything is fine and dandy... except for MHL/hdmi playback. if i connect the mhl cable to the phone while a video is running the video will stop after a few seconds but won't show a picture on my TV

So my question is: Is there a workaround for MHL on CM10.1 like there was for CM9 (i.e. getting at least video playback to work)?? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated

so long
[Galaxy S II General] Kaiserbenn:
The main reason is Samsung not releasing its driver sources... That's the main reason devs are flying to brighter skies. That, and also Samsung screwed them with promises which were pure lies.

This kind of cpu/gpu tweak is just a waste of time... It can make your phone laggy and unstable without having real proof of battery life improvement. I do think CM kernels are the better one because they have been made by the ones who know their rom the better. And are far the more stable.

Siyah like kernel are nice if you want the extra features as dual boot... Otherwise, what it will improve on a side will be removed on other side.

kernel building

I am trying out some kernel patches dealing with cd-rom emulation (for use with DriveDroid).

I know about basic kernel configuring and compiling, but cm integrates kernel building into the android build system and I don't want to mess things up. For the mo I end up building the entire rom each time.

Anyone know the proper 'make' or 'mm' command to get the android build system to build just the kernel?

Because that's not meant to do that. If you want to change the cpu frequency, you'll need a different tool, maybe a different kernel. Do a search.

Licence verification error

Does anyone happen to know why this "Licence verification" error appears?
[Galaxy S II General] MorpheousMarty:
I have never seen an error like that on CM, it is most likely an app specific issue.

Your notification bar shows you don't have internet, so I feel the most likely answer is that you have an app that verifies it's license on every boot, and it can't currently do it. For further support you'll need to contact the app developer.
[Galaxy S II General] robdood:
That way madness lies!! Messing with kernel stuff like that makes such a minimal difference I don't think it's worth it. In the OP of that Siyah tweak thread, the guy's put some screenshots of nearly 7hr screen on time. But he's barely used the phone looking at the stats.

I thought I'd have a go at replicating it myself, so fully charged my phone and have left it screen on since about 1045 this morning. I've had a very small look at facebook and chrome, and did about 10mins worth of phonecalls. I'd describe it as EXTREMELY LIGHT USE.

Here's my current battery stats:

OMG! What's my secret?! Not using the phone, basically.

As soon as I went into facebook and tried looking at some photos via cell data my battery dropped 2% in about 2 mins. It's the modem powering up / down and transferring data that eats battery the most. Tweaking your kernel stuff can make a difference (obviously) but for me the difference is so negligible, and the effort so great (not to mention instability and laggy side effects), that I can't be bothered.

I have no idea where I'm going with this post really, just trying to illustrate that screen-on time isn't the be-all and end-all. Especially considering everyone's concept of 'light use' is different.

external sdcard not mounting

Hi! I don't know when it started, but today I noticed that my external sd card is not mounted anymore. Tried flashing to current last nightly, but not success. In a terminal sesión, I have checked the file vold.fbstab, where I can see the line:

dev_mount sdcard1 /storage/sdcard1 auto /devices/platform/s3c-sdhi.2/mmc_host/mmc1

So i've done a 'dmesg | grep mmc' to see if there was an error mounting the sdcard:

c1 mmc1: vtf_2.8v regulator found

c0 mmc1: SDHCI controller on samsung-hsmmc [s3-sdhci.2] using adma

c0 mmc1: card inserted

c0: mmc1 cmd 52 command timeout error (two times)

c0: mmc1 cmd 5 command timeout error (four times)

c0: mmc1 new high speed SDHC card at address b368

c0 mmcblk1: mmc1:b368 29.8 GiB

... and then a 'dmesg | grep mmcblk1', just to get another line:

c0 mmcblk1: p1

And this is the further I've gone with my researching :(

In recovery mode I can see and navigate through external sdcard

Any idea of what more could I check?

Welcome to the club mate, if you wouldn't bother to search you would already know about the solution...

Just create a userinit.sh script in data/local containing the following:

mkdir /storage/sdcard1

Set permissions to:

reboot

Issue solved? The weird thing , in my case the internal sd was missing, are you sure it's the external? If not, put sdcard0 in the script.

[Galaxy S II General] inimaitimepass:
The GPS toggle tile is behaving weirdly. It stays in 'ON' status, no matter the GPS is switched on or off. The functionality works perfectly but the tile doesn't change from ON to OFF status in the quick setting display. I'm pretty sure a restart will fix the issue,.but I'm seeing this particular issue from CM10 days. :(
[Galaxy S II General] #illidan:
CM 10 didn't have QS tiles.

Could just be an issue with the tile not getting refreshed with the new status if you activate/deactivate GPS from settings. Nothing major to be bothered about.

A bit & resounding NO. Maybe we could make do with better & improved MALI drivers but that's basically it.

Some people seem to be having troubles with their se sensors where they just seem to stop working after a while. Are you using Chrome Browser? Disable the 'Tilt scrolling' option & see if it helps.

[Galaxy S II General] robdood:
Ha, I forgot to mention I do indeed have a 2000mAh battery! So that generally gives me 20% longer, but still.

It was an unrealistic test, I'd left the screen on pretty much all day without using the phone much. I was just being a **** and making a point about screen on stats (and kernel tweaking) not meaning much.

Still, the 'secret' to increasing your phone's battery is to not use the internet much. But, seeing as 90% of people who have smartphones are addicted to the internet, that's not a very likely scenario, is it?

The 'trick' was mentioned upthread. Don't. Use. Data. Or the phone!
[Galaxy S II General] inimaitimepass:
I knew that mate! but CM10 do have status bar right, and it is possible to add GPS toggle there right?! What I meant was about the issue, not about the tile!

Irrespective of what i'm doing from settings->location access, the GPS tile remain in ON state. Even tapping on it makes the GPS on or off which makes the functionality work, but the tile remains in ON state forever until reboot.

I know it is not a major issue as far as the functionality works fine. But as I mentioned earlier, this issue occurs right from CM10 days.
[Galaxy S II General] farlop:
Hi & thanks! I can assure you that I have searched all the thread for more thant 30 minutes (never whantet to be one of 'those'... :silly:), and indeed I remember that 'fatal' nightly build which broke up the mounting points, so that was the first place where I looked. The userinit.sh is fine, and the /storage/sdcard1 existed, but thanks to your screenshot I found that read permissions for group and other were not checked. Sadly, this didn't solve the problem.

But, then, i got the blessing from heaven, and plugged the sd card directly to my computer. There, after a chkdsk and nearly an hour, the sd card works fine again!! So, in the end, the problem was with a bad state sd card (damn FAT32!).

Thanks for help!

After the fixes to the Camera Storage selection were made by Steve, only 1 bug remains:

After a reboot

of the device, sliding to the right in the Camera to show the pictures you have taken, it always defaults to the INTERNAL storage, even though storage is set to SD-card. Pictures are saved to the SD-card still, but the Gallery will show the pics in the INTERNAL storage, thus you cannot look at the pics you just took.

I have tried to explain it here too: http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/35970/

Also look in <root>/data/log/ for errormessage files named dumpstate_ril_*.log. This may point to modem/ril instability at the time the log was generated. Note that several users had more than 1GB logfiles in that directory, thereby clogging their phone.

Hope it solves your problem.
