Power Button issues

My power button has been having issues since 10.1.2 - interestingly, on 10.1 software keyboards and search were finnicky.

10.1 issues - search would often get activated without me actually doing anything, and then it'll turn on and off for random amount times and intervals - same thing with the keyboard but much less frequent

10.1.2 - i have normally used my power button to turn off the screen and have no lock screen - now when i hit the power button, the power menu pops up sometimes, and other times nothing happens, and other times the power menu comes up 10-30 seconds later and does other random crap

Anyone else seeing these behaviours?

UPDATE: Turns out it's a hardware/mechanical problem.
[Captivate Android Development] PxGold:
The search activation without doing anything is a problem on some Captivates. I had this problem with the Samsung Gingerbread OS. It was a mechanical problem and I had to have the phone exchanged to resolve the problem. I have had no problems withthe power button using CM 9, 10 or 10.1.

Hows 10.1.2 running
[Captivate Android Development] PxGold:
So far so good, I am running the latest nightly. Except for a long boot up time from the power off state, it appears to run quickly with decent battery life (I am using the Samsung 1650mah battery), I also have the upper clock limit boosted to 1.2ghz without any problems (performance settings).

Any changes to 10.1 ?

[Captivate Android Development] besembel:
Here :

[Captivate Android Development] mrekimf:
OK, Kool.

Is there an app to download from phone, like Goomanager?
[Captivate Android Development] mik101:
Built-in.... go to System Settings -> About Phone -> CyanogenMod Updates
[Captivate Android Development] PxGold:
The July 22 nightly will not boot up on my Captivate. It just stays on the initial boot screen and never gets to the spinning circle. I tried to download it twice using the built in updater. I reverted back to the last stable build. I was previously on the July 19 nightly.
[Captivate Android Development] pawitp:
It's a bug with some SELinux preparation code and should be fixed for the next nightly.
[Captivate Android Development] laughingT:
Anybody else seeing an increase in battery drain and/or wakes in recent nightlies since ~ mid July?

bat life recently went down about 40%. I've got three different batteries - it happened with all of them. it could be app updates rather than cm. Just checking.

maybe I will run betterbattstats if others are experiencing higher batt use.

The crashy phone connectivity also seems to be removed from his list of issues. Also great news. :)
[Captivate Android Development] Primus76:
The mobile data issues from 10.2 also affected the 08/02 release of 10.1. Was that corrected in 08/03 10.1?
[Captivate Android Development] pawitp:
No, a problem from 10.2 does not effect 10.1. If there is a problem, it's a separate bug and you should file a bug report with a logcat.
[Captivate Android Development] laughingT:
Pawit,

I think the data connectivity issues with At&t may have nothing to do with changes in Nightlies. I was having connectivity issues, including both data and dialing, earlier this week. I reverted back to 10.1.0 stable and the problems persisted, but I never had issues in the past. So I flashed back to 0730 nightly.

Apparently, AT&T may have had some issues of their own. The problems cleared up by Saturday morning, California time. I am now back on nightlies without connectivity issues.

[Captivate Android Development] Mortal Eternity:
are we gonna get 4.3 for our captivate as well? :)
[Captivate Android Development] mik101:
Likely yes, but you'll have to wait for official nightlies to start. I'm sure right now pawtip just concerned with getting things ironed out on the i9000 then it will make its way to other SGS devices because of the hardware similarities.Patience is key.

On that note does anyone else have an issue with the keyboard (aosp) jumping to nearly 100% cpu usage and staying there. Rebooted the phone again to see if I can troubleshoot it. Aug 05 nightly.
[Captivate Android Development] Primus76:
Hmm jk4 here in saint john NB. Only had the problem on 8/2. Went back to 7/30 and was fine. Figured they were simply related. Will try latest and see. If persists I'll grab a cat.

I built it myself and to be honest, it doesn't make a difference for phones as old as ours.
[Captivate Android Development] Primus76:
Just went to 8/5 and no problems. Was probably just a bad flash.
[Captivate Android Development] Mortal Eternity:
i didn't understand... are we getting the 4.3 update or not!? i hope we do.... :fingers-crossed:
[Captivate Android Development] PxGold:
We should be getting the CM10.2 (4.3) nightly once the I9000 4.3 "unofficial" updates becomes "official".
[Captivate Android Development] Lollipop_Lawlipop:
Okay, I've had a many more hours to play with 4.3 and can form a more accurate picture.

What I've said still stands: it doesn't make a difference on phones as old as ours. Upgrading to 4.3 isn't as essential as going from 4.0 to 4.1. I will attempt to clarify this.

The phone is smoother, yes. But how much more? Remember the jump between 4.1 and 4.2? Google added more butter, but it was hard to notice (if at all). It's the same story for 4.3: it's smoother, but hardly noticeable in most places. In places where you got frame drops 4.2, you'll still get them in 4.3. The hardware is simply too slow.

On-screen GPU profiling

The green line in this screenshot's graph indicates 60ms, which is roughly 60fps. Any time the rendering drops below 60fps, the bars go above the green line. As you can see, even something as simple as scrolling up and down the developer tools menu causes frame drops.

One area where you do see a significant improvement is Chrome. Before you jump up and down in excitement, I've only noticed it in tab animations. Swipes from edges to switch tabs are much smoother.

Everything else works exactly the same, everything else works just as well.

But that's about it. Obviously, more butter is more goodness, so going to 10.2 is still the recommended action. The official builds will eventually trickle down to captivatemtd, and seeing how mature the port is right now, I have no doubt that time is coming soon.

As for providing the build I already have (and I've been getting PMs on this), no, that's not happening. Building from source was purely to satisfy my curiosity. When the time is right, our lovely device maintainer will provide official nightly builds. If you happen to be as curious as me, you can easily generate a CM10.2 build yourself.

Take a screen shot of the about phone info show that u are on it because I don't believe it till I see it that's just like saying your rich with empty pockets
[Captivate Android Development] Lollipop_Lawlipop:
Because versions of Android prior to 4.3 has on-screen GPU profiling.
[Captivate Android Development] htrowpiks:
I used the i9000 version of 4.3 (with a few changes) on the cappy and it was smooth, but I am getting about the same performance from the latest nightly builds of 10.1.... I will definitely switch, but I will wait until CM releases it as a nightly. I would have tried to make my own build, but for now, I am stuck on a 32 bit machine.....
[Captivate Android Development] HoangTuBot:
Just grow up,pls.
[Captivate Android Development] laughingT:
After getting periodic connection problems on AT&T, with various nightlies over the last two weeks, I tried changing from the kg3 i9000 modem to the kk4 modem that was released with stock 2.3.5.

It's been reliable, seems to handle transitions while driving between cells a little better, and comparable mobile data speed. Switching between mobile and wifi data is fast, reliable. also seem to find H rate connections well.

below is a link to my copy, named kk4modem.bin

if anyone wants to give it a shot, then first rename it to modem.bin, and replace the existing modem.bin in a nightly or stable zip file, before flashing via cwm recovery.

[Captivate Android Development] murphy504:
how do I go about editing a ROM zip to replace the modem file? Do I have to unzip & rezip the archive? I get no service with KG3
[Captivate Android Development] anwarkhan25:
Download your favourite modem. OPEN the ROM with 7zip and just drag your modem into the zip and close the window, put it on your phone & flash.

DON'T EXTRACT THE ROM!

Pretty sure that should work.
[Captivate Android Development] laughingT:
I know it works with xplore, available for free on google play. it is a dual pane file manager and I do it on the phone. it opens the zip for viewing contents, and when i use the copy command, it repacks the zip with the updated file. it takes about 30 seconds.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lonelycatgames.Xplore

I use 7zip on my laptop pc, although I didn't know if there was 7zip for android. i like using xplore on the phone because i don't have to move it to and from pc.

[Captivate Android Development] anwarkhan25:
never tried that app before, thanks for your finding! Will be helpful next time!
[Captivate Android Development] murphy504:
Thank you! :D I now have decent service & a great ROM. Is there a guide/tutorial for how to change to modem on a ROM for others? Because I'm sure others passed on nice ROMs because service was crappy. If not someone should make one. And I used 7zip via PC, dragged and dropped & closed.
[Captivate Android Development] anwarkhan25:
Your welcome, Should work on ANY ROM! :D
[Captivate Android Development] Bane99:
Also had the problem with spotty reception on some of the latest nightlies. Flashed an old and trusted JK4 modem from a cm7 radio zip and all is well. Next time I'll just put the modem.bin into the nightly and flash.
[Captivate Android Development] pawitp:
Just FYI, unless there's a bug in the update script that i'm not aware of, the modem.bin in the zip is only used when upgrading from Samsung ROM. Updating from CM will not change the modem.
[Captivate Android Development] PxGold:
I guess then the best way to try a different modem would be to access it from this location since these modems have an installer.

[Captivate Android Development] laughingT:
the scripts are for earlier versions of roms/cwm, specifically CM7 and CM9. maybe wrong info for cm10 rom? have you tried it?

Sent from my I-897, without a sound.

---------- Post added at 03:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:51 PM ----------

replacing it in the cm10 zip does update the modem, as shown by the baseband version in about phone, after flashing. I think there is a test for existence of radio.bin without it bring mounted first for the CDMA case? it does replace /radio/modem.bin on every flash.

the kk4 modem has a later date than the kg3. would this be a better way to test in the script, by using the file date?

Sent from my I-897, without a sound.
[Captivate Android Development] PxGold:
Yes the script works.
[Captivate Android Development] Maribou:
It took some trial and error on my end, but when I found the modem that worked best for me, I put in on the old SD card and flash that modem after every ROM I install. It's just a habit now. Flash ROM, Gapps, and then modem.
[Captivate Android Development] PxGold:
I just verified once you update the modem it stays updated after updating the the nightly to a newer version as pawitp stated. So you only have to update the modem once.
[Captivate Android Development] PxGold:
I already reported this on the CM website many months ago, but I thought I would mention it here - bluetooth transfer of the phonebook and history does not work with Ford SYNC (I have generation 1 version 3.1). The last version it worked with was CM 9. CM 10 and 10.1 connects to the bluetooth by the phonebook and history does not transfer even when I go into the SYNC menu and request the transfer. The Captivate asks for permission to transfer the files but nothing transfers after I allow the transfer. The only work around is to push the pnonebook to the SYNC by selecting "add phonebook entry" and then using a file manager to transfer the .vcf file from the phone via bluetooth.
[Captivate Android Development] pawitp:
You're best bet is to report it on CyanogenMod's bug tracker. It probably has something to do with the core bluetooth code (unimplemented feature) and I have no knowledge in that area.

[Captivate Android Development] mik101:
Guessing we're not going to see any more builds for 10.1 at this point? The last 10.1 nightly has been completely stable for me and could probably be a release candidate if not official. If that's going to be the last one I'll update the gfs i9000 from the last RC to the last 10.1 nightly and jump onto the 10.2 nightlies with my captivate.

Looks like last nights 10.2 nightly is a forced repartition (600MB System). For those that have installed it so far, are they taking the extra space from /data?

you can use the built in dsp manager app included in the rom, to boost volume, or the voodoo sound app, too. if you unset the tune speaker option in voodoo sound, it removes the default wolfson chip setting that reduces speaker volume.

@pawitp I see you've made some commits it appears that after a repo sync http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/28578/ is preventing a successful build from completing. I'm building via ssh so I can't pull them at the moment, I worked around the issue by creating the following (See file tree).

My question is if I manually re-pull the proprietary files from my device will this allow me to complete a build without manually creating directories and moving files, or is it something else causing the problem?

The error message was that it couldn't find modem.bin or any of the other files in the proprietary folder because the directory structure changed, the files were in there old location. I was just curious if any of your commits changed the old structure and if extract-files.sh would fix it. My server is 70 miles from my home and I can't physically connect my phone, but no worries what I did worked fine and I'm currently running a 1218 build.
