Checked and no large files.. Really at my wits end with this phone, lol..

Just don't know why it's acting like this, are you sure it's nothing to do with the build itself, it did only start acting up when I updated one of my nightlies only problem is I can't remember which one started all of this off, if I did I would have downloaded an earlier version and see if the issues are still there, which I have my doubts that they aren't.

battery life

I'm curious how does the cm10.1 battery life compare to cm9. There are alot of post in this thread about battery life but none realy helpfull for me. Maybe someone who come from cm9 stable (default kernel) and kept the same usage patern can help me.

PS: I'm not a realy heavy user ( 2-3 days/charge with wifi always on , 2G data (edge) always on (for email notification, I switch to 3G only when I need more bandwith) and 1-1.5 hours/day screen on (about 3-3.5 hours/charge screen on, mostly for browsing ).
[Galaxy S II General] kokesh:
Not on the laptop I want to use as a router.

My situation is as follows: I live in an apartment, where I have WiFi, but it is a crappy reception, as the access point is upstairs and my room is downstairs, under quite thick concrete.

I do have quite OK signal in one corner of the room, but if I want to move around the room, it drops down to zero very quickly.

My hardware/software setup: Laptop with XP SP3, connected through USB WiFI stick, second USB WiFi stick used as Ad Hoc transmitter, routing the traffic to the first USB stick via Connectify.me application. It seems to work, but the phone doesn't pickup Ad Hoc networks.

I know, that on Gingerbread on S2 it was a matter of replacing wifi supplicant binary in the phone with different version.

There are some apps in the market, which claim to be able to make the phone to listen to Ad Hoc, but I am not sure about the compatibility.
[Galaxy S II General] Skully☺:
Battery life is excellent, provided your screensettings are not too bright and you've disabled both GPS and Wifi & mobile network location in Settings, Location access. Reading between the lines, I guess you've already done that.

The screenshots are from dec 31st.

I hope someone else will be able to help you.

Good luck!

I came from CM9 and I use my SGSII just the same way as before, I can tell you that battery life is almost the same.

Everyday before sleep I connect it to charge, after I wake up I disconnect and only connect again when I'm going to sleep... this is what I'm doing since CM9 at least...

My battery lasts all day for my daily use (wifi on, gps on, 3g on, auto brightness on)... during the day I send whatsapp messages and SMS, a slightly use of facebook app and internet... and at night a couple of calls of 30min-1hr in total

after all that my phone didn't die yet, but is almost there

but keep in mind that everything is relative, if I go somewhere that signal is not so good, my battery drains faster and sometimes I need to plug the charge before I go to sleep (not frequently but it happens)

hope it helps!

I had similar problems trying to flash a ROM. Not just SGS2. Turns out the PC USB is having issues with the smartphone USB connection just like with other USB devices. You know how it is: it's working and then all of the sudden you got unknown device error for no apparent reason.

What I did was simple: used better USB cable with end cable ferrite protection. Those cheap without end cable ferrite protection just seem to work while in fact they don't. Don't let Samsung logo fool you. Check eBay for some, there is where I got mine.

Only with this cable ODIN works for me.

Re: [ROM][GT-I9100][JB][4.2.1] CyanogenMod 10.1 official nightlies // discussion thre

Average usage gets me 2 days of battery life. That is with 5 IM networks always on and Google push stuff also.

I really don't know what you guys are doing wrong.

Stock kernel and as much black as possible. Standard brightness.

That's 83% in the screenshot above and 2 calls over the day. I use imo beta for instant messaging and I have the Facebook app installed.

What I did is sign myself out of GTalk (imo does that) and freeze GTalk. I also cleaned my WiFi. On mobile data battery life is about 20% worse. 2G better than 3G.

I can only urge you to stay stock. Stock is good. There is no voodoo or magic setting that will give you better battery life.

Just do what I did and enjoy your phone.

Smooth as Silk

I upgraded from 05012013 nightly to 17012013. What a pleasure. The further improved ROM is smooth as silk. All my favourite apps are working. Battery life is good as well, 24 – 36 hours depending on usage. I am not a power user though.

A slight irritation in an otherwise perfect ROM is the fact that I can’t suppress E(dge) in network modes. "Use only 2G " is unticked under Mobile network settings. In the Advance menu I have selected HSDPA & HSUPA. Still my network gives me Edge if the signal is low.

Under System/Quick Settings Panel I found the following modes which make me smile:

2G/3G+2G

2G/3G only

2G/3G only/3G+2G

What do you make out of this? Obviously, whatever you select doesn’t have an influence on the network mode. What’s the use of these selections?

Thanks for your comments.

Cheers Joerg

Insufficient Storage Available

Hi all, this issue is becoming a nightmare. I've posted before in this thread with this issue and received some great help and tips that worked for others but of course wouldn't you know it my phone had to be the difficult one, lol.

When ever I try to install certain apps through google play or from a file browser on the phone itself I get error "Insufficient Storage Available"

Steps taken to try fix this.

1: Checked had plenty of space available (Had loads).

2: Formatted card and reinstalled all from scratch. (Loads more space available and Still got error)

3: Removed Viber and Lucky Patcher and still same issue.

4: Fix permissions a couple of times, removed cache and delvik cache and still the same.

4: Just formatted and reinstalled from scratch again, and made sure no Viber or Lucky patcher installed and when trying to install Go SMS Pro, I still get the error.

5: Check Thumbnail and no large files, checked LOST.DIR and no large files.

Apps so far that won't install, Facebook, Go SMS Pro, Camera JB+, Co-Pilot Live and Bubble world. These are just a handful so far.

I might look into the leaked version from Samsung as I can't seem to find what's causing this and need facebook and SMS pro badly.

I'm really at my wits end with this, I don't know why it's acting up or what is causing it..

I'm on the Three network in the UK with a "I9100NELP4" baseband. I can't remember if that's the one that came with the device but I've never flashed a different modem before so I assume it is.

On CM10.1, it doesn't seem to be adequate as I frequently experience total blackouts of service. I try to go to aeroplane mode and back but it gets stuck on aeroplane mode and requires a reboot to get a signal again.

Are there any suggestions for the best modem to use for my device and network?

Also, do modems need to flashed in between nightlies? Or between roms? Or are they unaffected by ROM changes/upgrades?

clock in night mode and signal loss (RIL crash?)

Hi guys,

I'm using CM 10.1 on my GS2 from the first nightly (I did wipe data, dalvik, cache, etc...) and I always found this issue (attached image) when I'm in the clock night mode. Anyone that can have an idea about that???

I took a pic with my cam cause it's impossible to catch a screenshot in night mode directly from the phone.

Sometimes I find RIL crash (completely lose the signal and I have to reboot). I've had this issue also with CM 9. Changing modem doesn't solve this problem that I don't have with Samsung leaked JB.
