You can get the commits list for the kernel here. You could find the nightlies in between changes and extract the kernel from them. That way you keep everything else the same and you can be sure that if the problem is fixed, it was a kernel problem.

WARNING: the kernel modules need to match the kernel. You will find them in system/lib/modules

I have made cwm zips for a couple of kernels with the patches for needed for cd emulation with DriveDroid. You can use them as models.

With the old kernel sources for smdk4210 https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/39337959/kernel-with-cd-emulation_cm-10.1-20130518-i9100.zip

With the new kernel sources for all exynos4 devices https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/39337959/kernel-with-cd-emulation_cm-10.1-20130607-i9100.zip

It looks like the main changes that might affect us were merged on the 4th July, the 18th July and the 19th July. I don't know when jenkins builds roms so I can't be sure whether the nightly of the 19th contains the merge from the 19th or not.

In settings for the notification bar there's an option to show the number of unread messages. As you can see it works fine for Gmail, but I can't make it work for my SMS messages. If I enable notifications from MySMS it shows the number of unread messages but the stock message app - and also Handcent SMS - won't show the number. Is this a general error or is it just me?
[Galaxy S II General] dagansandler:
I don't think it's an error. Just lack of support from those apps (like expandable notifications)

can anybody help me ?

i had 0501 rom on my device, yesterday i want install 0627 version , i wipe data / format cache system preload data and delvik and after that i install rom but wifi doesnt work ...

today i use Romnuke to wipe everything and flash 0627 again and wifi still cant find any network ...

and i should say in last days i have high wakelock from RILJ ... are they relate to each other ? what should i do ?:(
[Galaxy S II General] gnaggwatschn:
Since the nightly of June 26th I have to reflash Gapps everytime after flashing the nightly itself - otherwise my wifi and reception gauges won't torn blue, though the sync with Google servers works flawless.

Anyone else having this "issue"? What could be the reason?

Just a suggestion... You can stop adding Google calendar to the updates since it's available for download in play store long ago.

I experience GPS Fix problems here aswell.

The phone finds satellites, but it wont fix (tested it for about 2 minutes outside).

But this is not my main problem :D

I experience major battery problems. Just look at these screenshots...

Android OS Seems to drain my battery and I can not make out what the cause is :(
[Galaxy S II General] lerkin:
Recent whatsapp update from plat store can cause constant wakelock, check with wakelock detector from google play or betterbatterystats from xda.
[Galaxy S II General] playitlouder:
Thanks for your advise!

I installed WakeLockDetector.

I've managed to get the GPS to work normally after a fairly simple tweak. You can find information on page 1624. There's a screenshot as proof of functionality, and I tested Ingress today to double check, and it works a treat. You may need to change your NPL server to that of your destination, however.

I've tried this fix and it's not really better.

It's quite strange : Yesterday I use GPS only once, and it took between 4 and 5 minutes to fix. I use it this morning, and it took only two minutes. I thought the fix was OK.

But this afternoon, the GPS fix after 243 sec, during less than 10 sec and it lost the fix. After 15 minutes more, it was still not fixing (I was arrived ...)

During the 15 minutes, I always see more than 6 sat in "GPS Status",, reported with 3 colour (blue, yellow, grey), and the sats had numbers (I don't exactly know what is it).

Each time, I had fresh AGPS (less than 12h).

Right, GPS won't lock for me either, tried all the fixes listed on this thread.

My latest Nightly with working GPS

Hi,

The latest nightly that I had without GPS problems is cm-10.1-20130527-NIGHTLY-i9100. The next one I've installed was June, 10th and then since then the problem exists. So I assume the regression occurred somewhere between May 27 and June, 10. Probably other people can be more specific.
[Galaxy S II General] MJDdeLacerda:
I'm having a big problem with the camera app. It's not only with CM10.1, with AOKP also happens. The camera app freezes and the phone reboots, as soon as I take the 1st or 2nd photos. Does someone also have this problem? How can I solve this? I'm using the latest build with original kernel, of course, but this problem also have happened with all the latest previous builds.
[Galaxy S II General] vikashhero:
I forgot to add, that you should to change your NTP server to that of your your nation (For example, I live in the UK, so I chose Europe as my region and United Kingdom as my country), and you also need to change your SUPL ports (all of them - secure, normal, insecure) to 7525, whilst also making sure your SUPL hose is exactly: supl.nokia.com:7525. Then reboot (just to be sure).

Mine works just fine after this.

Note; that you'll need to apply these changes after every CM update.

Best of luck
[Galaxy S II General] bleuxeon:
It has already been stated that your "solution" tricking NTP server has nothing to do with our GPS problem!

So please stop posting every 5 posts your "solution" since it is NOT a solution.
[Galaxy S II General] vikashhero:
The changes I made Make my GPS work fine. I'm now running the 0630 build and I was able to play ingress today and use navigation as I normally would have.

I'm not trying to spam of fish for thanks, but if it's a common problem, then I'll offer a tip or two.

And it may not be NTP related - I changed the SUPL host which is what I suspect made the changes here but I know very little about how GPS works, so that could just be placebo too.

At the end of the day, It's working for me.
[Galaxy S II General] Shivver:
Hi

I've got a problem with mobile signal, I'm charging my battery to full, everything works good, and when it's 40-15% I'm losing signal and can't connect to any mobile signal, in few moments my mobile is freezing and I need to restart it, but after it's freezing again. To fix it I need to put it off, put a charger and than power on, after that it working, but it's annoying. Any solution?

I almost got lost trying to find a hotel in Edinburgh yesterday because GPS just wouldn't work! That'll teach me to flash a new nightly just before I go on holiday :silly:

Hi,

Installed version 10.1 on my Galazy S2 to a week ago and during the various updates that were coming out continues with the following bug.

When you open the application Instagram and if we do a video image appears to colors. Anyone know the solution to this?

thank you
[Galaxy S II General] playitlouder:
I tried GPS this afternoon and it did not work.

But I found a pretty simple solution!

Grab GPSStatus from the play store.

Then turn off WiFI and your mobile data.

Open the GPSStatus app and press the menu button. Now select "A-GPS Data" (might be a little different in the english version, I translated it from German :p)

Select delete/reset A GPS data.

Your phone should get fix now, it just might take up to ten minutes to build your own a-gps data.

After it has found your position you can turn your data back on and it will still have a gps fix (for me about 20meters accuracy...)

And it will still fix in seconds after that (at least for me :good:)

Have fun fiddling around with your gps! :laugh:
[Galaxy S II General] bleuxeon:
and...one more...
[Galaxy S II General] traketto:
gps

I made some tests:

0525 build is ok and gps locks in few seconds.

0630 build isn't ok and gps locks in an average of 30 mins.

0630 build plus dorimanx kernel version 8.14 (built 0504) and 8.24 (built 0527) gps lock in seconds.

0630 build plus dorimanx kernel version 8.32 (built 0617) isn't ok and gps lock in 30 minutes.

So I can suppose that the problem is located in the kernel and the problem has been introduced in cm releases after 25 of may.

So if you need the last cm build and gps working at the moment you can use dorimanx 8.24 (or 9.24 I think shoult be the same, I use 8.24 in order to use dual boot with 4.1 rom).

I hope will temporary help you, waiting the problem is identified and solved.
[Galaxy S II General] aliendna99:
I lold hard at this. It's so random.
[Galaxy S II General] CRXed:
All the gps.conf changes have no effect. YES it does find satellites, but it does NOT lock onto them.

Appearantly the i9100G has the same problem and it is possible to report problems for that model to JIRA, so someone did and I added some info there and link to the post above.

Hi, could you see if the attached patches fix the bad icons with fimg2d acceleration enabled?

More in detail, patch 01 by itself seems to work here, while patches 02 and 03 seem reasonable but they touch fimg2d4x too so a look from someone else would be nice.

patch reenable-fimg2d3x-acceleration.patch is needed to reenable the acceleration.

Mentioning [MENTION=2588207]kalpik[/MENTION] and [MENTION=1077833]infected_[/MENTION] cause i think you're building unofficial releases already so you should be able to check quickly.

Thanks.
[Galaxy S II General] CRXed:
Thanks, but would it not be much simpler to upload these to gerrit, so people can cherrypick them from there?

Could you give me a quick how-to for adding these patches to my build?

Is it as simple as

git apply -v [patch-name.patch]

?
[Galaxy S II General] ph3n0mII:
/deleted
[Galaxy S II General] EranR:
I can confirm that. Tried it and it works.

After AGPS data reset and first fix, subsequent fixes are fast and accuracy convergence (to ~5m) are also quick.

I think it should be enough just turning off AGPS in GPSStatus (maybe no need to turn off WiFi and Mobile data).

It seems the problem is with AGPS, throwing off the fix.

Thanks!

i think i found where the GPS problme is

used nightly 0630/0629/0615/0605

i daily upgrate but found GPS can't lock on about 0626

and then i can't play ingress

roll back to 0615(which i mark 'good' on the file name),sometime ok somtime no

this noon ,i flash 0606 ,problem still

open the app :GPS test,11 in view,0 fixed

but i get into settings-Location access,and turn off the"Wifi & mobile network location"

then the GPS test fix 3 in 5 second

then i back to the office,flash 0630,walk by the window indoors

try again GPS test

8 in view 5fixed

may be some problem in"Wifi & mobile network location"

but i found a way to solve the GPS issue and can keep upgrate nightlies:laugh::victory:
[Galaxy S II General] bar44:
It seems to be OK. After "Wifi & modible netwok location" set off, I fix in less than one minute. Before that, it was not fixing during 10 minutes. It can also explain why someone else say turning off the wifi and data allow to have a quick fix.

I will confirm after a few days (last time, I thought fixing gps.conf was ok...)

To those with GPS issues. Using a compass or GPS app, does magnetic north point where it should?

Mine is off by several degrees which is why I think it takes so long to get a fix.

Maybe some magnetic sensor calibration issues or data issues using the newer kernel.

[Galaxy S II General] jarud1984:
I'm dealing with the same issue since the end of May. If i use WIFI or mobile data network, the phone starts getting hot (from 25 to 40 degrees) in a few mins.

After some time losing the mobile network completly (modem reboots) and the phone freezes.

If i turn on the phone again i have 10% to 1% battery left and it freezes again and turns itself off.

The only workaround with helps in this case is to reboot and use the WIFI or mobile data network only when connected to power supply.

When connected to the power supply I never had a modem reboot (radio signal loss).

At the moment the only thing that helps is to turn off WIFI and mobile data network when power supply is not connected.

I'll post the logcat radio logs asap. Currently I am using the cm-10.1-20130630-NIGHTLY-i9100.zip

Can somebody please tell me, which nightly (April, May) I can use to get my issue fixed.

I am not sure if can switch back to any working, due to the open ril change (or is the samsung ril) also included in the old nightly zips?

Thanks in advance,

[Galaxy S II General] lerkin:

[Galaxy S II General] ghepeu:
Weird, I just rebuilt without patch 01 and the icons are bad again.

The debug output (with a small fix because being FIMGAPI_FILTERMODE_USE_SW isn't defined and the file doesn't compile) is almost always:

FimgApiCheckPossible: FIMGAPI_FILTERMODE_USE_SW 1
FimgApiCheckPossible: return true

The other lines are missing because the section where the image sizes are checked is never executed. With the fix instead you get:

FimgApiCheckPossible: FIMGAPI_FILTERMODE_USE_SW 1
FimgApiCheckPossible: return false: srcW: 48 dstW: 72 srcH: 48 dstH: 72 isFilter: 1
...
FimgApiCheckPossible: FIMGAPI_FILTERMODE_USE_SW 1
FimgApiCheckPossible: continue: srcW: 72 dstW: 72 srcH: 72 dstH: 72 isFilter: 1
FimgApiCheckPossible: return true
...
FimgApiCheckPossible: FIMGAPI_FILTERMODE_USE_SW 1
FimgApiCheckPossible: continue: srcW: 120 dstW: 120 srcH: 100 dstH: 100 isFilter: 0

That 48x48 image should be an icon that is then correctly rescaled in software (with bilinear filtering) instead of being passed to Fimg2d3x who can only do linear filtering.

Anyway, let's wait for someone else to try the patches and report back.
[Galaxy S II General] jpeg725:
The changelogs don't show anything other than some SMS Middleware stuff. Lucky you.

I am getting the impression that for no evident reason it works fine for some and not for others. So it probably is slight differences in hardware versions that throw some phones off. I realise that wouldn't explain why some people get it working with a full wipe or gps.conf changes, etc.

As long as people just say "works for me" or "still messed up for me" we aren't going to get anywhere.

We are probably going to need logs and hardware details.
