[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] honeyx:
Hm, well after testing this ROM for one day and installing it 3 times today I can say It´s a useful ROM but getting slower and laggy the more apps I install.

My first try was a "no go" after installing the latest Apex Launcher. It made the ROM that laggy I couldn´t work with it anymore. Somehow the Launcher seemed to corrupt the ROM in some way. The Gallery couldn´t load and display a lot of pictures anymore and some apps simply started to hang when closing them. This even didn´t change after uninstalling Apex again.

With Nova Launcher this didn´t happen. Tt´s faster than the Trebuched Launcher and my first choice for this ROM. What I like about this ROM is it´s restoring all my setting stored on my google account, even Wlan and installed apps on my previous ROM via the Play Store.

I had to abort the installation of my apps to test it as a totally fresh ROM. Later installed all the apps one by one and compared.

The more apps I installed the more it became laggy. It´s still usable but I notice the scrolling is lagging a lot now though I´m having here less RAM consumption than in CM9.

Maybe a bit tweaking will do it and let the lags disappear.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] azhiekurosaki:
yeah, I feel that way too. even when I'm using Turboboost, it has lag sometimes. and it's getting worse if i didn't restart my phone. :/

CM 10.2 Build 3

Hi Friends.

This is a new rom.

Perfectly normal to have errors

More version 3.Developers do not have a magic wand.

Errors will be eliminated feedback from users.

Surely need to move forward

and we support

Thanks 10.2 developers..:)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] honeyx:
Agree. This was not critisizing it but just sharing my observations. The ROM is working good so far and in a usable manner. Battery life is also good when disabling all the google crap that is draining id. It just needs a bit tweaking to reduce the lags.

With stock setting the lags became more the longer I used it but after enabling KSM and GPU rendering it´s ok now.

One cosmetic issue I found is WiFi to be displayed as turned on in the battery stats even if it´s turned off. So will update this later in the 1st post too.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] azhiekurosaki:
Yeah. You are right. I got the same too. My WiFi is off but it's shown on the battery stats that it's on.

Hey Friends

CM 10.2 build 3.

Do you have any other suggestions for kernel?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
Is there anything wrong with the current one? :)

Or you just like to flash new kernels hoping that maybe someday you will brick your phone? :)))

I'm joking of course. But seriously now. Why would you want another kernel for this ROM? Is it not ok? Problems? Do I talk to much? That's maybe because of the two cups of coffee I had today. Apparently that's too much for me. :D

I connected the secondary usb male (of the Y cable) to the pc for the power supply and then I tried first with pendrive and then with an hdd, but in all cases nothing happens.

Is there anyone that tried the OTG functionality in this rom that can exclude an issue caused by the kernel?

Thank you in advance and sorry if it seem that I'm OT, but I need to understand if the problem is the OTG cable (working correctly with SGS3) or a rom issue.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] honeyx:
I don´t think a lot of ppl are using OTG with this device or are even having such kables for this, so best would be you make a backup of your present ROM and flash one of Arcos ROMs to test your USB devices with it.

When you get it working there but not with this ROM you can still post it as a bug. This way you also can check it´s your USB devices and setup not working or really related to this ROM.

Oh well this is now a bit off topic, but I want to share some experiences with my new S3 mini running also CM10.2.

The S3 mini users do have to fight with waaay more issues like for example the 1000MHZ bug, random reboots or a fast draining battery. This is not only related to Cm10.2 but to all CM ROMs. I got myself the random reboot issue by trying Cm10.1 and the 1000MHz bug with CM10.2, which thankfully disappeared after a while but my battery is still draining like crazy. Beside this the S3 mini isn´t that much faster than the SGW.

So all in all I just can say the SGW isn´t that bad and the battery life is superb compared to other devices. Plus you get really bugless CM ROMs offered right from the beginning.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] azhiekurosaki:
it's like connecting bluetooth from phone to PC as internet (Bluetooh Modem). I used other phone as bluetooth modem, and I connect my Wonder to the bluetooth to use its internet connection, but it never works as usual (in cm10.1).

kernel that I used now, is the kernel that I pulled out from CARBON ROM (educk) and it now works. the kernel version is the same 3.4.67 if im not mistaken.

CONFIRMED (for BETA 3)

Please be Confirmed this issue

If I turn on "Torch WIDGET from my homescreen" while I am talkin in a video call conversation with Tango app; the main camera (back camera, big camera you know!) stops working... But the conversation does not stops (does not ends)... the audio communication is still continuing...

But camera...... It captures only a dark screen and broadcasts to my client this dark and unmeaningfull view; not the actual view with enlightened with torch widget...

I tried many/several time with different persons and I am truely sure that camera stops and it denies working with torch widget... (I didn't try to run directly Torch app icon from app drawer, I am using a widget of the Torch in my homescreen)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] LeroViten:
Yes. I can confirm that "Can't connect camera" happens every time there's a Torch turned on. My idea is that it is maybe normal, as our flashlight is camera related feature. Nevertheless...

Screenshot:

Steps:

1) Turn on Torch from whatever place (App Drawer, Quick Settings Tale, Widget)

2) Open Camera.

Logcat:

From MediaFire

Secondly,

I saw there are discussing already known bug from CM10.1. "Can't connect to camera" happens every time you lock your device or push it to sleep while camera is on.

Screenshot:

Steps:

1) Open camera

2) Lock Device

3) Unlock device to see "Gallery has stopped"

4) After that you'll have "Can't connect to camera" every time you try launching camera.

5) Reboot device as a workaround

Logcat:

From MediaFire

And lastly... Another NEW bug.

Theme provider FC after uninstalling any theme directly from Theme section in Settings. Theme is uninstalled though.

Screenshot:

Steps:

1) Install any theme you like (omit if you already have one to sacrifice).

2) Go to Settings -> Themes

3) Choose any theme

4) Hit the Delete sign

Logcat:

From MediaFire

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
Please, stop writing in red. It's annoying. About the issue, I'm pretty sure that's intended since they are both using the same resources.

Thank you, Lero. As usual, really good job on reporting the issues. Unfortunately the first one is, as you suspected, pretty much intended. You can't use both Torch and camera at the same time since they are both relying on the same resources.

About the second one, I think it might be fixed in the next build. It's a bug on CM sources but I think it's fixed now so the new build should include it. :)

Big thanks to you, my friend. :)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] honeyx:
It´s not just pretty much intended but a fact. You both are right about this. It´s because the torch app reinitializes the camera HAL driver and is feeding it with new commands to turn on the flash light.

Simply said both are using the same sources and can´t be accessed separately from two different apps at the same time. That´s a limitation but not a real bug. Best is to use an other light source.

hey guys,to backup efs on our device do we need to type this on terminal emulator ?

su

export TARG=mmcblk0p27

dd if=/dev/block/$TARG of=/mnt/sdcard/efs-$TARG.img bs=4096

is this ok if i do this on custom roms or do i need to do it on stock roms.

i did this than moved the file on my pc,than i did the same thing 2-3 more times and guess what..

i got files(.img) with the same name and size but each one with different hashes :confused:

this is driving me crazy,how is that possible ,it is the same partition that is backed up
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
For as far as I know, you only have efs in stock Samsung ROMs. Not sure why don't you just root the stock ROM, and then copy-paste the efs folder wherever you want, for backup purposes.

Anyway, in this thread, this is off-topic. It has nothing to do with CM10.2.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] eri000:
yes i am sorry that i am writing here

i wanted to backup efs because i am afraid of losing imei,so should i flash stock,root,and backup the folder efs ?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
Huh? You're afraid of loosing IMEI? How would you ever loose the IMEI? Type *#06#. Is the IMEI displayed? Then you have it. For as far as I know, you backup the efs folder when you have a carrier locked device. But not sure it has anything to do with your IMEI. I might be wrong though...
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] eri000:
i have heard stories of people gettings 0000000 imei and it is always advised to have a backup of efs folder where imei is stored

yes my imei is fine it matches the imei under the battery
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] honeyx:
No need with this device. The EFS folder is only important with newer Samsung devices. There you need it for IMEI, MAC, contrycode and what ever, but on the SGW this is a bit different and so also no need to backup this folder.

On the S3 mini it´s for example important but not with the SGW, so do not mix up informations you got from other devices.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
You can use this to backup efs. But for as far as I can see, that assumes that you already have the stock ROM installed. So..where are you trying to extract that from? Also, running Windows or Linux?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] eri000:
ok but i am curious how you backup efs on a galaxy s3 for example,do you just copy the efs folder ?

also how to tell which device requires backup ?

thanks :D
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] honeyx:
You don´t have to worry about this. The recoveries for these devices, be it CWM or TWRP, do have an option included to backup the EFS folder. There are also other ways (and guides) to backup this folder but for the SGW this is not needed and so also not included.

developer options caution

Just installed the ROM after a really bad bug out when i didn't use CWM 6.0.4.4

Word of caution, do not touch the 'simulate displays' option under developer settings.

Just bricked my phone and have to clean installed everything all over again.

Sucks to be me :(
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
1. Which option from that menu did you select? How do you reproduce this issue? By the way, you didn't have to reinstall everything. "Clear data/factory reset" option should be enough. Also, the use of CWM 6.0.3.8 or newer is mandatory for this ROM to function properly. I believe it's also mentioned in both the development and the discussions thread. So all you had to do is read. :) It's not a bug. It's the ROM need for selinux, which is not implemented in earilier versions of CWM Recovery.

2. Anyone else confirm this?

probably i found the answer

[MENTION=4833280]Madridii[/MENTION] you are right man , ion rom users arent facing maps 7 gliches/flickering issue

you can see the answer in this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2530073

because of this we are not able to fix this issue until we get updated graphics and display drivers

so reported logcats are useless for fixing maps flickering issue

if we want to fix it we must use ion
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] honeyx:
This is not exactly true. I bet the flickering would disappead by simply updating the drivers no matter they are PMEM or ION. Unfortunally there do not exist newer PMEM based drivers, only ION based ones.

However Maps 7.x is anyway crap, even if it´s not flickering. On my S3 mini it´s not flickering but the rest is the same like on the SGW or even worse because the compass is going crazy and starting to rotate. So there I´m also using 6.4 and all is fine.

It´s not our job to fix googles buggy apps or to find a workaround. It´s up to them to fix these issues, but somehow they like to take time in ignoring them like with the voluntary issues they finnaly fixed. Just it took them about a year to fix them though they were aware of them.

App/Game/Subject: System

Bug title: System shutdown vibration confirmation

Probability of occurrence: HIGH

Description: Phone does not give a vibration confirmation on system shutdown

Log: N/A

Screenshoot: N/A
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] LeroViten:
Do you really think we can call it a bug? Because I don't see the necessity. Only if anyone can prove that this should really be that way.

I remember that this was only on cm9, but later CM versions never vibrate on shutdown, boot...
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] honeyx:
Yeah, and this was just because at the beginning Arco used Samsung sources to port CM9 to this device and because up to Beta3 it was using the obsolete 2.6 kernel.

This is not a bug but a obsolete add on in Samsung ROMs. As a CM user you are expected to know what you are doing like when you are shuting down your device. There is no need for extra visual, vobrating and even voice warnings like a blinking triangle and a voice telling you " Warning ! Warning! Your Android starship is getting shut down and by entering the atmosphere loosing its velorcity!" :)

LoL. This would be fun as a joke screensafer but not needed.

So now a bit more seriously. At the moment I´m having the feeling some of you are looking for issues where are no issues.

So please do you and us a favor. Before posting something like this about the vibration as a bug, keep a backup of your previously used ROM on your phone to compare with.

There are some obvious bugs and there may be some not so obvious ones. But to be sure about the not so obvious ones we need to compare with an older ROM.

I´m doing this too when I´m unsure because noone can keep everything in mind about how it worked for example in CM10.

but http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=47530777&postcount=26
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] honeyx:
And this is because all manufacurers were told all future ROMs will base on ION and so they stopped releasing driver updates for PMEM.

So this is the same for HTC like here. To use newer drivers then need to move from PMEM to ION, but if there would exist newer PMEM based drivers this wouldn´t be necessary. So there is no "but" but "because". It´s because PMEM isn´t supported anymore. That´s all.

But Google could fix the glinches for PMEM based ROMs as well to make it more compatible with older ROMs. Just they don´t care and even do not care about the other issues in the new Maps.

It´s not PMEM or older graphic drivers that are faulty, It´s simply Google doesn´t care about all the ppl with older devices using older Android releases.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] hack4er:
ok bro i understand you think maps issue is app issue, not rom or kernel issue

thanx again for your explanation
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] honeyx:
It´s just I not only think the Maps issue are an app issue ;) I´m using a ION based ROM on my S3 mini where I have no graphical glinches but all the other issues in Maps 7.x like not finding the correct GPS position or even a rotating compass, which I don´t have by using the older 6.4 Maps.

So even on a ION based rom this app is totally useless. It´s simply not worth the efford to build an ION based ROM for the SGW just to fix the graphical glinches in 7.x Maps.

It is already in CM 10.1 beta 1 by arco68, only when phone power off. But I think it is important to use it in both power off and on the phone. It is a confirmation for what you do, especially for those using accessiblity (like blind ...)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
About vibration feedback when turning off the phone (cm10.2).

This is either a removed feature from CM sources, or a bug in their cm10.2 sources. It's not on my side and it won't be fixed/re-added unless they do.

Just so you know, this is also missing on Serrano CM10.2 and although I can't find the commit that removed it, it is still not a bug on my side since I didn't remove it on both phones.

Also, CM10.1 Beta 1 was released a while ago. If this is a more recent change, you won't see it in Beta 1. But if it's not just on cm10.2, you might be able to see it in a future cm10.1 Beta 2.

Hope this makes it clearer.
