Well you can make it a lot farther than me! The Simpsons crashes shortly after the opening video for me and RR3 crashes almost instantly. Oh well!

[Galaxy S II General] ZedKhanShan:
Guys, if you really want to play games yet keep CM as a ROM, I know I do, then just flash "2013-02-08 nightly" with "gapps 2012-12-12". I think that's the last 4.2.1 based CM Nightly. You can get from "goo.im".

Personally, I tried adjusting to Samsung Stock but it's not for me, once you get the sweet taste of CyanogenMod, its kinda hard to let it go. The only other alternative ROM for me after CM was "MIUI", at "miui.us", and I still came back to that setup I mentioned before, just need a compatible Siyah/DorimanX kernel to go with that.
[Galaxy S II General] killar_aka_arabu:
after reboot cpu auto-sets to min 200mhz and max 200mhz.

wiped cache and dalvik-cache, no changes.
[Galaxy S II General] DSC05:
Or you could flash this modified siyah kernel http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2201017. It installs the old Mali driver to the Rom so you could use it with current nightlies.
[Galaxy S II General] ZedKhanShan:
Thanks, don't know how I missed that! I searched everywhere hoping to find a fix! "pun intended"
[Galaxy S II General] pamarakos:
So nobody has this??
[Galaxy S II General] SimboXXX:
Have you tried disabling lockscreen policy app and see if it still happens?
[Galaxy S II General] pamarakos:
You mean uninstalling? Or enable the two side-lockscreens? If enable them it's fine, so??
[Galaxy S II General] SimboXXX:
You can go to manage apps and disable it. But it seems that it could be the problem. You could try to clear its data and set it up again.
[Galaxy S II General] GalaxyGusta:
Weird because a lot of cm users reporting games like rr3 that freeze a lot most likely because of mali v2 getting hot very fast
[Galaxy S II General] dejson:
Don't tell me that RR3 works now. Great

EDIT. just tried myself. It works on 05.04 too but only stock kernel. I had latest dorimanx and had to revert to stock kernel.

Most wanted works too but only for 2 minutes. I hope that soon we will able to enjoy nightlies even more.
[Galaxy S II General] Skully☺:
Normally you can change min and max CPU speed in Settings, Performance, Processor. However on my phone with the April 5th nightly they are greyed out (see GalaxyGusta's post (#11646)). Haven't noticed this before. Uncheck Set on boot.

Now use a program like Voltage Control or Set CPU to change the max CPU speed.

There are two options to save the settings:

1. In VC you have to save the settings by: Menu, Save as boot settings. When you set it as init.d script, the settings will be applied during boot. Since we cannot change Voltage anymore in CM10.1, it should now be safe to use this. When you set it as Startup service, the settings will be applied after system boot.

2. Alternatively when you have changed the CPU speeds, go to Settings, Performance, Processor. check if CPU speeds are now correct and check Set on boot.

Reboot and check if the settings are saved.

It does not give me any "pushable" buttons in app management, I ll try to uninstall it, flash latest nightly and reinstall it

I dont understand!!!

Suddenly after 30-mar nightly lockscreen policy doesnt work and screws up the clock!!!

What triggered this behaviour??

Is there any other way to disable side widget and camera screens when on lock screen??
[Galaxy S II General] meviox:
That option is available only for system apps. Use TB instead to freeze the app.
[Galaxy S II General] pamarakos:
I uninstalled completely, flashed latest nightly, reinstalled and as soon as I de-activate sidescreen on lockscreen clock is screwed up....if I reenable sidescreen everything is working ok!?!?!

That's why I'm asking if there is any other way to disable side screens!

Thanks
[Galaxy S II General] meviox:
It is listed as a "known issue" on Google Play. So, I guess you would have to wait for a fix.
[Galaxy S II General] pamarakos:
But it was working just fine till 30-mar nightly and all nightlies before it....was triggered in 04-Apr nightly...what was the change??

I jumped from 30-mar nightly to 04-apr and then 05-apr straight...I'll try to locate the exact noghtly between these that first appeared!!

So there isn't any other way to disable sidescreens on lockscreen except Lockscreen policy??
[Galaxy S II General] meviox:
Looking at the 03/31 nightly changelog there are a few commits regarding the lockscreen. Maybe one of those changes. Try to flash the 03/31 nightly and check if the issue is triggered there.
[Galaxy S II General] 99x:
It's definitely a bug relating to disabling the other lock screens, and seeing as it started for us both at the same time I would suspect it was a specific change in the ROM, I don't really mind it as the weather info loads correctly for me (I don't get the question mark)

Battery gauge issue

Hi there,

I rebooted my phone today to switch to 16bit transparency. Before the reboot I had 50% battery capacity left. After the reboot the battery gauge showed only 25%. However, it stayed on this percentage for about half an hour and then slowly crept up to 30%. Right now, approx. 4 hours after the reboot I am still on 28%.

I am on the 0404 nightly only for less than 2 days but must say that I like the previous one 0203 better in terms of battery efficiency and smoothness. I will continue to test 0404 a bit longer but might be moving back to 0203. This one offered all I need. In any case, thanks again to the developers for your brilliant work.
[Galaxy S II General] Kaiserbenn:
This happens from time to time to me too. Not a big deal, it's just what is displayed in the battery gauge is wrong for few minutes..
[Galaxy S II General] Fusionalex:
Heyy! Is there any way we could get some lockscreen notifications like on the iPhone?
[Galaxy S II General] kewinh0727:
change ril ?

hey codeworkx :)

the new modem xxms2 is out are u going to change the roms ril to that or will u stay with xxls8 ?

[Galaxy S II General] Szwarcu:
Hmmm i tried to flash some kernels just to confirm that other kernels run games better. But every flash ended with white screen after reboot :mad:

Any ideas why? I was using kernel_updater_v2.z
[Galaxy S II General] axls:
hello to all,

i have a problems, yesterday, after im using wifi sharing via my phone, the phone start to restart after 5 hours then it stuck on samsung galaxy s2 screen without proceed to cynogenmod screen...

usually it goes there very fast...but now it stuck there forever...

also i try to plug via usb to pc and get the unrecognized device..

i try to recover via cwm JB - 6.0.2.8, able to access it, then when try to recover it, it will go to the samsung screen...

any idea or suggestion?:D
[Galaxy S II General] SimboXXX:
The ril doesn't have to match the modem.
[Galaxy S II General] rogers11:
Because you could confirm this way that other kernels do not run much better?
[Galaxy S II General] kewinh0727:
oh okey heh thnx :)

so what is the actual main benefits with matching them? :)

the only things i have heard is battery and 3g stuff...

and i dont get what a ril crash means and what happens when it does ^^
[Galaxy S II General] Karpfenhai:
No man, as long as you can enter the download mode it's not bricked..

[Galaxy S II General] Szwarcu:
So kernels doesn't matter in this case?

Decide than. Someone wrote that other kernels have different drivers for mali and should give better results.

How it is then? :)
[Galaxy S II General] pamarakos:

OK got it started in Download mode. is there an ODIN version of a stable CM 10.1 ? and a known working recovery

All I really need is a ROM without all the Samsung crap I suppose.
[Galaxy S II General] :
I recommend using ODIN v1.85. Unlike newer versions I never had problems with it. And if you want to get rid of Samsung stuff take any ROM except stock ones :b
[Galaxy S II General] BorgCymru:
I have ODIN I need a CM ROM that will work on it ?

---------- Post added at 03:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:04 PM ----------

Got it back up and booting using an OLD stock ROM. SO at least the phone is now working. I'm thinking it was the CM recovery that mashed the CM 10.1 ROM
[Galaxy S II General] res2220:
There is an Odin version of cm9 somewhere around. Flash that and it will also give you a stable cwm to work from. From there you should be able to flash any cm10.1 nightly and gapps. Done and done.
[Galaxy S II General] Coirpre:
it is called cm9 resurrection edition and can be found in the cm9 thread.

Have you tried just flashing an Odin kernel, over the stock ROM. This is the quickest way to root and get CWM recovery.

[Galaxy S II General] gold_heart007:
Dear Team,

I am on latest CM10.1 nightly. Its been a while since i moved on to CM10.1 . I am experiencing camera pics quality issue with CM10.1. Before CM10.1, images were fine and with less blur. But with CM10.1, images taken with camera app are very hazy and blurry. I've tried playing with all settings and auto but the results are same. Though, images come less hazy and blurry when ISO set to 100.

I think this is because of the software, because images quality were great when i was on stock ICS. Kindly, guide me accordingly, whether i need to change any settings / install any new camera app. Also, i do have HDR Camera+ app installed. There is a noticeable quality difference though not that much. I've heard about Camera FV-5 app and its rep o. Is it worth it? Any help will be much appreciated.

Thanks. :)
[Galaxy S II General] CRXed:
I think this is the change that makes this bug happen:

cm: Enable cLock by default

http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/35004/

Aslo, read the description for the Loclscreen Policy app:

So I guess with every unlock, you are now switching between the cLock widget (default) and stock Google widget (fallback).

I guess if you add the default Google widget as your lockscreen widget, it will not look different on unlock/lock
[Galaxy S II General] Szwarcu:
So this toggling will not be fix'd for clock?
[Galaxy S II General] pamarakos:
I tried to remove the clock on the lock screen but as soon as I lock-unlock it comes back again!!

So it's like having two clocks on the lock screen, right?

I havent activated anyrhing for sure and I havent added any widget ever!!

Now concerning lockscr policy app, of course it was the first thing to read the description and the known issue BUT I ve been using this app from day 1 on cm 10.1, first day pf trouble was on 4th apr nightly, so you ve also pointed the 'bad' merge lead to this!! So who shall we hope to give us attention?? I dont understand if there is a guy like 'pawtip' from cm10.1 on sgs i9000 thread who takes care of the matters concerning certain device, is there anyone here?? I m not demanding someone to be here of course, I m just asking how this thread works!!

Thanks
[Galaxy S II General] kewinh0727:
is that the latest version of cm that is odin flashable?

if not where can i find the list with all of the others?

and if i flash cyanogenmod odin flashable will everything with samsung every little bit of samsung files be deleted and only files with cm?
[Galaxy S II General] SimboXXX:
All you need to flash is the cwm recovery found in the OP. Then you can do a full wipe and flash the latest nightly.
[Galaxy S II General] kewinh0727:
i am already on the latest nightly :) 6th april

but i like getting more knowledge about this stuff so ^^
[Galaxy S II General] :
Can anyone on latest nightly tell me if the icons for WIFI and mobile connection are blue or grey? They're used to be blue but for some reason they stay grey now for me. Even the toggles in the dropdown menu... But I can receive text messaged / surf / use WIFI. Thanks in advance :)
[Galaxy S II General] whoosename:
Afaik, the icons are blue if your pohne is connected to google-servers, grey if not.
[Galaxy S II General] dollardollar:
Coming from 1/3 to 5/3, i thought the new changes towards like 3 step row scheduler with pegasusq gov and many other fixes would have fixed the laggy issue and high end games issue.

At first, the feel was awesome. Super fast ROM, nothing like old laggy one.

Updated NFS to newer version and started the game, the intro and map came up very fast. Immediately started the race and it was going well. All of a sudden it crashes, but there was no clue it was about to get crash like in the old builds.

Tried with out sound and happened the same. No luck.
[Galaxy S II General] elitewarrior:
You better hope codeworkx doesn't read your post. The reason games are crashing are because of the new drivers and there is nothing the devs can do about it without the sources, which as you should very well know, we will never get.
[Galaxy S II General] nextrow:
Then why not use the old drivers!

If we will never get it, games will always freeze.

One thing I don't understand. How come that some ppl don't get freezes? They have the same drivers and hardware?

Verstuurd van mijn GT-I9100 met Tapatalk
[Galaxy S II General] elitewarrior:
There were probably other reasons too but I don't remember reading anything.

As for why some people get crashes and others don't... hard to say. Different background apps, different games, random luck maybe? I personally haven't experienced and problems...
[Galaxy S II General] Kaiserbenn:
You're mad? Blame Samsung and harass their social medias... With sources, all these problems would have been gone, we would have hope into seeing android 5.0 on s2...

But we never gonna see this happen, even if it was a Samsung promise.... Stop buying Samsung stuff, that's all the frustrated customers have to do.
[Galaxy S II General] pamarakos:
Why dont we all send hundreds of the same complaint email to samsung?? But all of us!! And what to buy, htc with the awful camera or lg??
[Galaxy S II General] Fusionalex:
Sony or Nexus
[Galaxy S II General] snalfio:
NEXUS 4 LIFE

the sensors are continuing to stop frequently :(
[Galaxy S II General] pamarakos:
Sony??? What's the history of sony on Android? Yes I know two-three models....I've compared several photos with SGS1 and new Sony, and it's still miles away...Nexus in Greece? No thanks:)

Anyways, we are way out of topic....thing is who is the guy from cm-team who may give us some attention and make some minor changes?? We all face some issues, which when we prove that they happen in a large number of people means that somebody has to take care of it!!

And second, stick to my previous message, why don't we all with sgs2 send hundreds of emails at samsung? What's their problem to release the

"code", now that such long time has passed since first release of SGS2?
[Galaxy S II General] dex2l:
Same here... Starting AndroSensor app fixes the problem but after some time sensors stop working again... :(
[Galaxy S II General] snalfio:
i'm agree with you! there are hundreds of sg2 owners on xda
[Galaxy S II General] codeworkx:
Nobody?

Most of the devs stopped working on samsung phones because they're pissed.

We're doing this in our limited freetime and currently working on other things.
[Galaxy S II General] meisell:
Simply thank you , and please don't care about all those idiots that all can do is to complain about all that is not working, please know that there is a lot of people that are not writing posts every 5min but are here very frequently and a apritate all the work, and are happy, all progress is welcome but we know that it needs time a specially it is difficult in adult life.
[Galaxy S II General] codeworkx:
Just to make things clear.

It's not like "codeworkx has to fix bugs".

It's a hobby like cycling which i'm doing on my freetime. If i don't want to do something, then i don't do.

We're not getting paid for what we're doing and YOU don't pay for what you're getting. So nobody can't demand something.

Remember: MY freetime.

It's like it is on any other open source project:

If you wanna have something, do it.

Much community contribution -> project grows, things get done

No community contribution -> project stagnates, things are never get done

You can't code? No problem, learn it.

I did the same 2-3 years ago. And my job has nothing do to with coding or software.

I wasted a lot of my freetime on it. You can do the same.
[Galaxy S II General] snalfio:
i edited previous my post! it could be misinterpreted. Just for make it clear. it's not my intention to complain about your work for our cm.

In case "idiots" was going for me....go to h***...if you want to help then help...if you don't want to contribute and help then sh** the f*** up...don't tell other people that are trying to find their way out "idiots"...
[Galaxy S II General] elitevet:
BTW, your link leads to THIS thread.
[Galaxy S II General] pamarakos:
Agree on this of course...so is it easy for you to correct some minor issues for you that are proven to be appeared on several users after a certain nightly/update?? Maybe it's just a minute's correction for you, this is why we are trying to find the exact point for you!!

In any case, thanks a lot for your hard work, and it's always in my mind at least to donate from time to time to cm team for all these that you offer!!
[Galaxy S II General] codeworkx:
Depends on the problem.

Game crashes = probably unresolvable by us, need new closed source mali libs

Scene mode = http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/35255/

Freezes = takes a lot time to find the root cause and a lot time to find a fix

Audio = takes a lot time to find the root cause and a lot time to find a fix

You can write a personal letter regarding the release of the source code to:

http://opensource.samsung.com/ --> press on "Web Mail"

If you don`t have time for writing a big letter, this is a already written one that you can copy and paste:

Quote:

Requester: Enter your name.

ID (E-mail): Enter your email address.

Country: Select your country.

Inquiry Type: Select "Request for Source Codes".

Model: Enter "Samsung I9100 Galaxy S II".

Message: Copy & Paste the following...

Dear Samsung,

without a doubt you build the best phones on the market and I really enjoy using the Galaxy SII I9100 but there is a problem. A lot of people like to use mods like the popular CyanogenMod on your flagship

devices. Without the source code and proper documentation great developers like codeworkx who is a device maintainer for Samsung phones at XDA-Developers.com start to turn their back on Samsung

phones like the Galaxy SIII because they are based on the Exynos processor due to the fact that there is a lack of source code and proper documentation. Since developers are the lifeblood of Android it`s

not a good sign to see them leave to other companies who provide proper source code and documentation. Qualcomm and Texas Instruments understand that and they released their source code and

developers are using it to do great things.

With this letter I ask you to release Source code and proper documentation for the Exynos 4210 and the Exynos 4412 and in the best case it should include the following:

- git repos

- commit history

- release patches if ready as single commits and not as big messed up tarballs

- up2date reference code for their video interfaces

- up2date reference camera hal to work with these interfaces

- up2date reference audio hal

- up2date reference hardwarecomposer

- patches needed for android framework (platform support)

- gralloc if possible

- maybe hdmi?

- maybe fmradio?

Thank you for your great phones and I really hope that you will release the above stated things.

All the users that follow sgs 2 CM 10.1 thread should take part to this protest.

Check on these two...they come from the same issue concerning lockscreen commits updated on 0404 nightly....

Seems two type of clocks are appearing after lock-unlock-lock-unlock sequence!!

So? Can we remove some files manually so as to solve this issue ?

Also if I'm helping, if I enable two sidescreen on lockscreen (camera and widget) through Lockscreen policy app, then everything works fine!

Thanks a lot for your time!
