Questions

Just got this device this morning so please bear with me. I've so far read through all 21 pages here and the 9 over on the developmental forum.

Here are my questions:

1. Is there anything else I should read?

2. Is there an IRC channel for this phone?

3. The best mix of neweset ROM/stable ROM for this phone would be the CM10 ROM correct? Not the 10.1?

4. I didnt install any custom Kernel or Modem, just flashed CM10 through CWM. Should I be installing a custom Kernel or Modem?

5. The following are what work and dont work on this ROM right?

Works:

* 4G

* Wifi

Doesnt Work:

* GPS (Google Maps was able to find me...? May have been through WiFi though.)

* Notification LEDS

* Video Recording

* Advanced menu in Settings

I still havent spent enough time playing around with the ROM but basically I'm just looking for the most up to date confirmation on what I've just read. I apologize if I posted too many questions :D

Thanks Beastmode for the ROM.

@Slapshot52

More detailed information below :P
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hechoen:
1. Yes.

2. Yes.(kinda)

3. No such thing as new and stable.

4. Modems you're choice. Recovery comes with the kernel.

5. Right.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Slapshot52:
Would I be allowed to idle in said channel?

And whats the best Modem for T-Mobile? I'm coming from the international version of Verizon's OG Droid (Motorola Milestone) which only got 2G at best with T-Mobile so I'm sure any Modem will come off as fast as c to me.

Thanks for the quick replies guys.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] GFX.myst.:
Said channel would be #teamacid @freenode, and to answer your question, yes you can idle there all you want. Since many of us that run the channel are busy either with school, work or both or just plain busy with life, it might get discouraging to find nobody there to answer right away. If you do idle there though, there is always someone that pops in every so often to try and help if needed. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] johnadelic:
Hey guys I am curious if you found the issue with this?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Beastmode:
what was the issue again? the modems not flashing? i think fb figured it out the other day we were talking

and i believe some modems are having issues with twrp but with cwm they work fine. I'll get with him again

if that's the issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] johnadelic:
Actually the other way around. The modems flash fine on twrp, cwm 5 and 6.0.1.2 but not on 6.0.2.7.

I tried posting these in the Development thread but I guess I dont have enough permission to post there:

Been playing around with the rom and here are a bunch of log files from about 10 hours of use:

I've got some stats that the BetterBattery app took and two dmesg files as well as two logcat files.

The logcat files are a bit two big to attach so here they are:

Does anyone has experienced/know why expandable notifications appear to be cutted by half? :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Beastmode:
Because your notification bar is crowded I bet if you erase some of those stuff like remove it from USB and turn off that battery notification it'll get back to normal if not the lastest thing gets more of the space
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Theraze:
It's the screen res... Change it back to 240 from the default of... 184 (182? Whatever the 18x default is. :))... and the notifications display properly. It's just that the notifications are still trying to show at 'normal' size rather than the configured size, so they get... trimmed. If anything, it appears to be a JB bug, not something that Beastmode can actually fix. Just one of those things...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Cooptx:
Actually on that, drag down on the notification and it will show you your message. Try it next time
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] gizmoscoop:
I would have to say this ROM is by far the beast JB.

I can't seem to play Netflix with this ROM. There is audio but no pictures. Does anyone have this problem?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] TwitchyEye:
I had same thing on pacman. I think it's that video playback bug.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Kyndig66:
Have you tried MX player in leiu of the stock app?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] gizmoscoop:
Nope. Well, I like the Netflix app. I didn't know that you can play Netflix on MX.:confused:
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Kyndig66:
I've never used the Netflix app, so I'm not familiar with it.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] gizmoscoop:
IC. It's an app to play movies on their database. Of course, u have to pay the monthly subscription, and I don't think they allow any other apps to access their movie database for viewing purposes.

Also another thing. I installed this rom last night, and this morning the phone went into a boot loop, which drained the battery to only 10% from 90%. It scared the heck out of me when my phone became very hot while it was in my pocket. So I yanked out the battery to let it cool down. Wierd. I installed this from b4 but didn't have that problem.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Kyndig66:
What I meant was that since I have never had a subscription I have never used the app. :p I wasn't sure if you could use a different player to watch stuff, might be worth checking out. If you do please report your results.

As for the reboots, in the OP of the dev thread, in really super huge giant letters it says to disable the notification lights. If you've done that and are still getting the reboots please get a logcat. :)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
He asked you to play a video on MX player or the stock video app to test whether or not video worked at all for you. If it does work on MX player and the stock video app, then it's a netflix problem.

Go ahead and test all 3 apps to verify whether it's a ROM problem and not an app problem.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] n3rdwswAg:
Umm I'm kinda new to all of this (just crossed over from jail breaking iPhones), I've read thru this while thread and now I have a few questions, I apologize in advance if there stupid, first question is my phone ear piece isn't working, it automatically answers and calls out on speaker phone. Beast said he fixed the audio issue which I'm guessing was that and I thought I downloaded the most recent build but I'm still having that issue. Other problem is the play store issue that someone said they fixed, I went into file manager and edited the build.prop file but my phone just goes haywire after that. Could I get a link to the room where both of these issues is resolved. By the way this rom is crazy good
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Theraze:
Might I suggest sticking with an ICS rom rather than JB if you want stuff to work in alpha stages? :) It should make things less frustrating for you.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] n3rdwswAg:
Acosta uggzil

Is actually not stressful, I just read thru the thread and seen that all of these issue where resolved so I just wanted to either know how or and to make sure I was on the right rom, any suggestions other then switching ROMs cause I really like this one and I'm a noob but not the average noob(whatever that means) lol
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Fluidification:
Honestly if you don't use gps, and not much wifi(it drains the hell out of your battery), this rom is as stable and 400% faster than ICS. Sometimes you need to force stop trebuchet if it becomes laggy.

This Play Store mod should help you with that. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2126760

Ringtone Problem

I apologize ahead of time. I'm pretty new to this and didn't find anything in the threads about this.

Is anyone else having a problem with ringtones?

I've been trying to set my ringtone and set an alarm tone but keep receiving a message that says,

"Unfortunately, the process android.process.media has stopped."

Otherwise, great job!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Volkronica:
Stable is Unstable?

I flashed this ROM trusting that it was stable coming from TeamAcid's CM9 R8 which was fairly stable. But I find this ROM to be very unstable, it shuts off at random times and yes, I did disable BLN and I even clean flashed this ROM. Don't get me wrong, it's a great ROM, but I just don't know why it shuts off so many times randomly and battery seems to be an issue as well. (20% Drain in 10 min.) What could be the reason?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Beastmode:
That's not the roms fault lol

Get me some logs? My battery lasted 7 days of course very minimal use maybe 45-60mins on time but still....
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Volkronica:
Thanks for the reply. :) I'll look into the logs. And 7 days on battery with minimal use? Am I missing something here or do you guys have like an upgraded battery lol. Because the longest I could get out of my battery on ANY rom was 8 hours on daily use and not even a day on minimal use....
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Fluidification:
People seem to have bad battery life based on a number of factors.

Yes, battery isn't that amazing on this rom, mainly because the samsung gb kernel is really dragging to the point where there is too much crap in it based on Samsung. AOSP kernel is much better for battery.

How many times have you dropped your phone? Your battery may be swollen.

How many dead zones do you go in and out of?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Volkronica:
I dropped it multiple times but never severely.. What do you mean by dead zones?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Theraze:
Areas with bad cell service, which force your phone to try to find a working signal and runs your battery down FAST.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Volkronica:
Yeaah, I guess that could explain somewhat of why I have such horrible battery life. I use T-Mobile and it constantly switches from 3G over to 4G depending on the area. I should always remain on H (4G), but I guess that could be why.. Thanks for the info. :P
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Theraze:
Part of switching between 3G/4G is that on ICS+, the phone will only use what it needs. You won't stay in 4G all the time (unless you're on certain modems) unless you're actively pulling down data.

If you think that the switching is causing battery drain though, and you can stand it for a day, try turning your phone into 2G mode and leaving it like that for a day. Should make things stay stable and hopefully reduce some of the battery drain, while also increasing signal strength and reducing downtimes since it will use the more widely available 2G rather than switching between 2G and 3G/4G as available.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Volkronica:
I found out today that the shutting down issue wasn't because of the ROMs. Something happened to my phone when I flashed JB because now it's shutting down even when I go back to my previous stable ICS ROM! I'm suspecting it's a battery issue because whenever I open an app or swipe fast, the phone shuts off randomly. Seems like whenever it receives too much stress, it shuts down, but it's happening too frequently. What did I mess up? Could it be a SIM card issue or a kernel issue?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] turtlepa:
Sounds like what started happening to me. See if that happens if u keep your phone on charge. Use it for a bit, if t doesn't reboot while plugged in, you may need to order a new battery like i did yesterday
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] sizzlefire:
Love the rom...icons randomly disappear from the dock?

Perhaps I am the first one having this issue, however I have just flashed this rom and changed the DPI to 240 so I could install apps. After that I have been having really good luck with it so far, however there is one little glitch that has been driving me crazy. I searched this thread and could not find any mention of it so perhaps its just me. Every time I reboot the device it removes the second icon in the dock!

and after reboot

Am I the only one having this issue?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Fluidification:
chrome might be on sd card via titanium backup or something even if it's not supposed to be there.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] sizzlefire:
Actually that was the first thing I looked into, turns out if I put the caller app in the second position (the one which managed to hold through a reboot) it gets deleted and chrome (then placed in the first position) does not.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hittzman:
I had this problem on another rom which came with the Trebuchet 0.2 Launcher app. Try clearing the data in settings/apps/all/Trebuchet and push "Clear data". Then add your icon back to the dock. It stopped my icon from disappearing (from that same 2nd position on the dock)

Message about kernel.

This uses a slightly modified version of the herring-ics-2.x kernel that our temporary bridge to ICS and JB. As TeamAcid successfully completes the Aries kernel, which is 3.0.x, it will be very stable on ICS, and probably JB as well, but on JB, it won't be too hard to port it to a 3.1.x kernel from 3.0.x
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bot42:
The kernel number such as 2.3.7 has more to with the chipset release dates then with the Android ROM version other wise there is no "ICS" or "Jellybean" kernel as Aries was first released with some honeycomb tablets. Many official ICS and JB releases contained both 2.3.6, 2.3.7 such as the Zoom tablet and did not actually develop an Aries "3.0.0 or hirer" with their official ICS, or JB releases. Granted yes Aries is the newest kernel that doesn't mean other kernels will not work just fine.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] johnadelic:
Erik quick question, does the sim card need to be activated for you to test the 4G? I know you won't actually get data but I didn't know if just having the T-Mobile sim card would make the phone be on 4G but just not let it get data. If that works for your testing I have a new sim card you can have.
