And don't freeze....

I think freeze problems maybe because kernel changing...

How about do a kernel wipe, install latest stock rom and then install sentinep rom?

Dear sentinels.

Im having a problem with this Rom in combo with siyah v4/5/6

Whatever way I try (rom/kernel wipe / tips from the siyah forum) I Just cant get my fone to boot into rom when I install siyah kernel.

Is it Just not compatible with this Rom?

Or does and of you have another tip I could use? Cause I tried almost everything.

And everytime my fone wont get past the sentinel boot logo. And then Just hangt On logo and gets very very Hot!

[Galaxy S II Android Development] diddly3000:
That's strange. I was using siyah v4 mcm patched with this rom with no issues
[Galaxy S II Android Development] innomi:
I know.

Thats why I am asking. I see People in this thread that are using siyah kernel.

I dont consider myself a noob and know how to flash kernel etc.

But I cant get this to work.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] diddly3000:
Did you try hawker kernel wipe script before flashing kernel?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] innomi:
Yup. Also tried romwipe. Fresh instal. Then kernel wipe then install siyah.

I tried everything I could think of.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] diddly3000:
When you flash siyah did you boot rom with stock kernel to home screen first and then reboot and flash siyah?

Also where did you get siyah kernel from. Because mcm siyah from his thread don't work on 4.2.2 roms. You need patched version that comes with aroma installer :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] innomi:
I downloaded the patched version of 15-5 I was aware of that :) so im using correct version.

As for your other question. I tried it both ways. Before the boot. And after a complete boot On stock kernel.

Both ways have same result.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] diddly3000:
I have honestly no clue what's wrong so. Lol sorry. Sounds like ya have done all the usual stuff. And ya know what your doing with regards to flashing roms etc. Did you use hawker rom wipe tool for fresh install?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] innomi:
Yup.

No luck.

I think im the unlucky one :p

Ow Well. It's not terible I get good bat result with this cm kernel.

It's Just that im used to have siyah. And I liked it that way.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] T3rran:
hi guys, before trying this rom I have a question: is there a way to get a torch on lockscreen mod with this rom or an equivalent alternative ? its very important feature for me. thx

No need for a mod its already in the rom, you can put the torch widget on the lock screen,or under settings ,lock-screen you can choose the home/menu/back button for the flashlight...

You might need to fresh install with a system partition and data wipe. That sounds like a corruption or conflict.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] King_Rat:
Wiped everything before fresh install (including system/data format)

Changing from pattern back to slide fixed issue, I've had similar bug on bajee ROM (while ago now... 4.2.2)

Flashing using temporary CWM

I've been flashing roms in the past using the temporary CWM (boot into stock recovery - then flash CWM recovery temporarily)

When I try to flash this rom I get an error (e: error something)- Should it work via the above method? (I've downloaded the file twice)

Hi,

Installed this rom a few days ago and loving the experience so far, no errors. Just one question, where can I change low power notification settings. Just can't seem to find them. Also one time toggling auto rotation from quick settings disabled it completely until I had to reboot.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] striker76:
Got excellent battery life on day 2 of using this rom with stock 1650 mAh battery (see attached pic).

Then battery suddenly dropped from 100% to 75% when phone left unused overnight (about 5 hours) on next day.

Is it a battery problem, calibration issue, or I just need a few more discharging charging cycles?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Sentinel196:

Sentinel196, when i try to open any .3ga file (usually downloaded from WhatsApp) from File Explorer, it force closes. Any help shall be greatly appreciated.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Sentinel196:
*.3ga is a proprietary Samsung file type and not supported by most AOSP ROMs as far as I know.

You'll probably have to convert it to WAV or another common file type to open it. There's some guides on google if you search "3ga".

Battery issue since 4.6

I dont know if i am the only one.

Since i use 4.60 (used 4.4 and 4.5 without problems) i got a big battery issue.

In 4.4 and 4.5 i got at the end of the day ~30-60% if i used my phone for 2-3 hours.

Now i lose 25% Battery in 2 1/2 hours with only 9minutes of using....

Whats wrong?

I have no other app's installed, and did a clean install with stock kernel

Nope i also have this problem, and have tried using better battery stats, no app is causing this

Also Gallery keeps crashing at times, anyone else?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Sentinel196:
You guys with battery issues might need to give a fresh install with system partition wipe a go. If everyone was having the same problem I could try and diagnose more, but it seems limite to just a few cases.

Mate if you're planning on Sentinel Rom 4.70 with the new Kernel watch out because it seems that are slowing animations and CM Team did not find any solution for that....
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Sentinel196:
Yeah I read about that. I can always just continue on with the current kernel if there is an issue. I'll sort it out when the time comes :)

(OH - just read above- I'll leave this on here anyway just for info in case there are some other solutions)

Hey guys - after installing this I'm getting intermittent massive rapid battery drain with the camera area getting hot. (it wasnt happening on my previous Rom)

It says in battery stats that "Media" is using up the battery, included packages are Download Manager, DRM Protected Content Storage, Downloads, Media Storage

Battery Issues from 4.50 ...

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Zewsan:
I'm afraid that I also have the drain issues. Even with no background apps, no sync, full clean install with formatted system and data. No media files, no music to scan, standard kernel, etc.

Im on at least 15 full battery cycles with the ROM, with calibration.

Left the phone at home in the morning, coming home after work and 50% battery, just system, OS and standby usage.

No wake locks more than 8 counts in total of 1 second during this time.

Not sure where the drain is, since battery life is okay when using the phone, but standby is horrible for some reason.

I used to only have 1 or max 2% drain per hour in standby.

PS. Managed to go 7 days with my Lumia 920 on 1 charge, WP 8 standby and light usage is totally amazing ;)

Hi,

Installed this wonderful ROM, I come from official ROM and this one has a tremendous battery life compared to my old ROM. But when I don't use it I still get some battery drain. About 3% per hour. Also, I can't change the screen rotation control as many times as I want, and the GPS is not going to turn off until I reboot the phone.

I hope you'll understand me with my bad English, thanks for fixing those little issues in the next update :)

I had battery drain - but did another full wipe re-flashed and no more battery drain -

only thing is now I have no GAPPS installed - I keep flashing it but it doesnt appear, any ideas why? (I'm thinking it should have Navigation in there right? and Maps and things - but theyre not there - is this right?

Thanks for all the quick responses by the way - greatly appreciated, I love the ROM, which is why I really want to get it working
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Sentinel196:
Are you sure you're flashing the right GAPPS package? That's really strange.

Hello!

I've try to install the Sentinel Rom but CWM give a generic "error 7"

I'm running Leakead XXLSJ and Jeboo Kernel 1.1f

Any help to resolve this problem?

I think it's jeboo 1.1f the problem, do you know if with the last 2.2 there is any problem?

Do you have any suggested kernel do I've to install before trying to install Sentinel Rom?

Thank you so much for your help!

For resolve it I've:

- unpacked the rom

- open with notepad++ the file:

META-INF/com/google/android/update-binary

- delete all from: assert(getprop... to: show_progress(.... (NOT DELETE THIS LINE)

- save the file

- repack

- flash new rom

v4.70 is just about ready for release, but i need a little more assistance with beta testing. If you were having problems with games freezing in v4.50 and v4.60, please reply below. I'm looking for just a few people to help me beta test v4.70 before release.

Cheers.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dox81:
No issues at all with the games I play on 4.60 (not a heavy gamer). Everything was very smooth.. Looking forward to using v4.70. :highfive:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Sentinel196:
I can't release 4.70 until I've done testing with someone who was having problems with freezes. Anyone willing, or shall I just launch anyway?

My beta testing team aren't having any problems.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dox81:
If your beta testers are not having issues, why not launch? I would test it for you, but I didn't have a single problem with previous versions or any freezes on stock kernel. Do you need specific tests?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Sentinel196:
The only test left to do is to see if the freezing issue is resolved for people who were having it, but I'm 90% confident it was only a few people and that it's a hardware problem with their devices.

I'll give it overnight and let my i9300 downloads calm down a bit so I don't make google and dev-host upset, then launch the ROM tomorrow evening when I get home.

Hopefully in that time some additional people will have responded and be able to do some more testing for me :)

I don't mean to hold out on you guys, I just want it to be the best it can be before launching :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mr_zuff:
Take your time, don't worry :)

Anyway, I can't do beta tests as I don't play games with my phone, I'm sorry..

Help needed!

Here's my situation:

I flashed v4.50 on my device last time and it worked great.

In the Settings screen, I can see a full black theme and the icons and other UI were themed.

Next, I tried flashing v4.60 but the theming and UI were back to the default Cyanogen theme.

I then try to flash back the v4.50 to see whether is it my phone problem or not.

Oddly enough. I didn't get back the theming and UI for SentinelROM even on v4.50.

Tried a clean flash (including clearing System) but to no avail. Been scratching my head for these few days to troubleshoot this issue.

Anyone know what's going on?

Thanks in advance. (:

Wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache-->Install the ROM on top of v4.60-->Install Gapps-->fix permissions-->reboot.

Do we need to do a clean install?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Sentinel196:
Perhaps someone with the problem could do a nandroid backup and then full system and data partition wipe and reinstall and test again?

I'm wondering whether CyanogenMod's changes to the RIL system have caused a conflict with older data in some cases as it appears not everyone has this issue.
