Call Drops

I installed cyanogenmod 10.1. Everything is fine, I update it whenever update rolls out. My cell goes not reachable and friends are unable to call me. I tried to call from my phone to my friends, call goes through after trying about 6-7 times. Other times it says Call ended :(

I also observed few instances when on call, the call drops all of sudden. I see a lot of oscillation with Network Signals.

I am really bugged with this.

I am using Airtel Network in India.
[Galaxy S II General] evilgod77:
Have you tryed to update your modem ?

Did you update from another ROM to CM10.1 or have you made a "clean" installation.

Maybe reset to factory default (in recovery) will help.

Battery life

Hi,

Any news on the battery life issue? I'm om CM 10.1 1013 01.05 nightly, and can hardly keep it going for one day! Is this beeing looked into? Would be very interesting to know!!

I'm under the impression that there's some kind of battery -leak bug in the samsung phones, is that correct?

Possible to improve/ fix in CM?

-Thanks
[Galaxy S II General] SergioA:
No problem with battery life here, this is the best ROM I've used in terms of battery life. Have you tried a clean installation? Maybe the fault is in one of your apps... You can try starting from a clean installation and then reinstalling your apps in small groups and see how battery life goes...

I am unable to send/receive SMS with the default Message App.

(i tried search this topic a few times: Search is temporarily unavailable. We apologize for the inconvenience.)

Setting the SMSC number gives an error.

I temporarily use GoSMS because I can fill in custom SMSC number.

Problem still occurs after full wipe/reset. Anyone recognizes this problem and has been able to fix it?

CM 10.1 7-01 version. RIL and Baseband match (XXLQ6). Will another RIL/Modem fix this problem (if yes, which one?) It did not occur on CM10.

Provider is Vodafone Netherlands.

Another issue (not very critical). When switching to front camera and then to video the Camera crashes. When I first switch to camera and then to video it does not crash.

Lost Camera and Gallery

I did something stupid. Running CM 10.1 nightly 20121229 I wanted to have the photosphere-camera and installed the package available in this thread. The photosphere-feature didnt work anyway but crashed my camera but I had two camera-apps and two gallery-apps. I tried to delete them which worked ... way to good. Now I dont have any camera nor any gallery anymore.

What I did now:

* update to the newest nightly 20130111 but it didnt bring back my camera or gallery

* flashed gapps again, but .... no camera or gallery

Any idea how to get back these stuff? Imho it has to be inside the nightly or ... much less likely the gapps-package.

How did I delete the apps: I just opened system -> apps -> deactivate ... and they were gone without saying goodby. Stupid me.

My last resort now would be to roll back to a recent CW-backup but last backup is from 20130107 so I would prefer a "better" solution and I want to understand whats going on. There has to be a "clean" way to get back my camery?

Thnx for any advice,

peter

ps: What does FC-crash actually mean. Its a frequent wording in this thread but I dont know its exact meaning. thnx for explaining.
[Galaxy S II General] voltsb333:
Yup and no more SwiftKey crashes when using search bar :)
[Galaxy S II General] ktix007:
Just go to Settings > Apps, the deactivated ones are at the end of the list and you can activate them again.
[Galaxy S II General] AlkaDragos:
In Apps -> All tab from Settings -> Apps you should have 2 galleries, one for default ROM one and one for Sphere. Anyway, if you deactivate it, the app should be still there at the bottom of the list with the Disabled status. Just hit Enable and you have again your Gallery. After you will flash a new nightly, the new Gallery (PS) it's gone anyway ( at least for me, i don't know what mod / flashable-zip you used ).

Actually I got some really strange Battery stats/drains.

I installed cm 10.1 short before a trip to the alps and skiing (it was cold, phone often died, big battery jumps from 90% to 17% after dying, forgot the time, it started to think it is loading, etc.). Since then my phone acts like a diva.

Battery life is horrible (normal day messaging -> 12h tops), today I loaded it up, put it on flight mode and after 2,5h it was at 90% and I really did nothing ..

I cleaned the usb slot, wiped every cache I found. In the beginning of cm10.1 I did a full wipe (this is a clean install. right?). Every second day I install a new version in the hope it gets better.. I attached 2 screens of Battery Life of yesterday, at one point it died again, it always thinks it is loading.

Another problem: After booting the attached screen appears (not enough space).. SD card has 10GB and internal has 1.4GB of free space. Woot up?

Any help is appreciated
[Galaxy S II General] lerkin:
Kernel or partial wakelock, install better battery stats from xda, leave phone in deep sleep for several hours and than look for wakelocks.

[Galaxy S II General] CRXed:
The solution was given after your answer, read back.

---------- Post added at 12:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:53 PM ----------

It's a hardware issue, your USB port is messed up, that's why it thinks it is loading.

Give it a really good clean, if that does not help, you need to get it replaced.
[Galaxy S II General] voltsb333:
Had this on 1-09 and 1-10, even if I had sufficient space for system and internal storage, someone posted a few pages back that it was caused by viber (according to his logcat).

Since the search function isn't functioning at the moment I can't point you to the post, but if I recall correctly about 2-4 weeks ago someone from South Africa reported problems with sms and message services, but only on CM10.1. It was solved when his ±10 year old SIM card was replaced.

Massive UI lag

From time to time, I get massive (sometimes 20+ seconds) hangs. The UI appears to just... stop. Sometimes it gets bad enough that I get a box asking "system isn't responding do you want to force close?" when it finally starts responding again.

I haven't been able to figure out a cause. Nothing in logcat other than the obvious notification that an app might be doing too much in the UI thread (you don't say).

It seems to happen at random and it's hard to pinpoint at any specific app. I know that it gets a lot more frequent if Skype is running (uninstalling/freezing Skype doesn't fix it though).

Radio logs are filled with RIL errors in readloop, but I don't think that's related, as they don't correspond.

Great work! Love the new Jelly Bean and having it on my phone, however is anyone else's JB more laggy than ICS? I thought Jb was meant to be smoother, but things seem to lag, maybe its down to the resources it needs to run.

Also as mentioned earlier, I get the Kernel battery drain. My phone's being held awake for several hours during the day. I use Google Play Music to stream music to my device, but not nearly half as long as the phone has been kept awake as shown in Gsam.

Internal SD low memory

Hi All -

New to XDA and also rooting.

I have been on CM 10.1 from 122612 and keep flashing with day-to-day update from CM. Today i observed that Internal SD on my I9100 was just 1.3GB free, earlier 5-6GB free in official ICS 4.0.4 ROM.

Is this low memory because of Custom ROM? Any one? any idea:confused:

Until Dec 12 updates was flashed in RECOVERY MODE, from Jan 3 2013 updates was flashed directly from CMUPDATER in syssettings/About phone/Cyanogenmod updates.

Thanks,

Hiya all.

The updater found new nightlys and appears to download them as the bar runs accross.

If i manually download it and flash through recovery will it leave all my data alone? Or will it wipe using this method?

huge thumbnails-file causing disk-storage problems

As several people here ran into the problem that their phone reports "no disk space left" although they have huge sd-cards I ran into the same problem and noticed that again and again my phone is building up this huge thumbnail-file(s) in

sdcard0/DCIM/.thumbnails/

Currently I've two files with size 2.4GB and 1.3GB Thats almost 4GB in total for caching which is ... quite a lot. Deleting the files will cause them rebuildt. Any idea how to limit cache-usage here?

I've searched the settings but didnt find any proper setting on disable/limiting the cache. Cache is useful but my total photo-collection seems to be mirrored into that one.

See attachment from yesterday from where was only one thumbnail-file with 1.7GB. Today (no screenshot cause I deleted the files already) there were two files with ~4GB in total.

Thnx for any advice and maybe people with disk-full-problems could check if they have huge hidden thumbnail-files as well.

Status of Exynos4 hwcomposer and gralloc

Some interesting, albeit a little depressing, information on the status of Exynos4 hwcomposer and gralloc from developer Andrew Dodd

https://plus.google.com/u/0/101093310520661581786/posts/ZEKu52oo8cA

"Short summary of CM10.1 on Exynos4 devices:

Camera wonky as hell due to Samsung's closed-source HALs

Lots of graphics issues due to vsync passthrough placebocomposer

General maintainer burnout from the mountain of things still not quite working right. It's usable for many... But it's not a level of polish I can take pride in and it never will be. I simply don't have the time or motivation."

Do you also have huge .thumbnail-files in DCIM/.thumbnails ?

Note that deleting the huge files puts them in LOST.DIR in my case and I've to delete them from there again to actually free the space. As always the app DiskUsage is my best friend to see where the used space actually goes.

I now started playing with several ScanMedia-apps to stop the android-media-scanner and probably using .nomedia on my photo-collection is the next step. Actually here on my device my photo-collection is ~5GB and the thumbnails are 4GB. Something is wrong :)
