Yeah, my battery is excellent right now too. Took it off the charger this morning at 10:30. Been using it on and off all day. Now it's 2:45 and I still have 81%. I even use go launcherex and also have the 3d engine turned on which usually kills my battery.
[Galaxy S II General] RukusX7:
Yeah. Battery life is definitely better.

Small Bug To Report

Phone set to have capacitive lights on when screen is on at all times (settings>buttons>Backlight Enabled (Illuminate Buttons checked, Illumination timeout set to Don't Turn Off)

BLN Notification Lights settings:

Blink Interval - 1000/1000 (ms)

Blink Timeout - 1799 (ms)

Phone is running with screen off (locked). Notification will arrive on phone (ie email) and BLN lights will start blinking properly. Pressing the Power button to bring up my lock screen, sometimes the capacitive lights will stay off and will stay off while the screen is on, unless I press the power button to turn off the screen and then turn the screen back on with the power button. When the capacitive lights stay off it seems random.

Doesn't happen very often, but i thought I would mention it non-the-less.
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
+1 for a concise bug report ;)

I think this may be related to the other bug with bln where it doesn't turn off when you turn on the screen as it should. This causes the system to report that bln is active when the screen is on and inactive when the screen is off which is backwards.

I think your bug might also be fixed when I get this bug fixed. I could be wrong, but they seem directly related ;)

Battery life is very nice, heres an screenshot of what my usage has been like for the past 3 days, pretty consistent for each day, with a live background too. Running smooth and tuned for a full days usage. Fantastic
[Galaxy S II General] danrobi:
Anyone else having the pull down notification drawer freeze? Happen to me like once a day. I am running the latest build. Almost never happened before.
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
I haven't had any freezes, but I've had a couple of times where it seemed to have frozen then finished. Try turning the hw overlays off and see if that helps.

No Voicemail Notification Update

So it would seem CM10.2 is not at fault for no VM notifications. I routinely swap my SIM from my Android into an old Blackberry 9700 to take to work (approx every 2 days).

Today at work, someone called and left a VM. I saw the missed call and called my friend back. After 2 hours, i realized I should check to see if he left a VM. He did. No VM notification came up on the blackberry either.

The blackberry is a known working device with stock software. So this is definately not a cyanogenmod issue!

The problem is, Bell thinks I have a nexus 4 device, and if i call them with my problem and tell them its happening with my other devices they will charge me to 'change the current device' .. i think it costs $20.

So i'm left stumped what would be causing this issue as its obviously some sort of system issue but how do i ask bell to 'reset' or 'fix' it on their end?!
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
Is this phone, the one running the this rom, the phone that is registered to your number? If not, that may be why your not getting the vm. I think it's routed by esn or something like that.

Just call them and make sure your phone is properly registered in their system with the correct esn. I can't see why they would charge $20 to change phone, it's not like you're changing the package.

Once everything is setup properly from their end, you should run some tests to make sure you got the result you were looking for.
[Galaxy S II General] Tronith:
Okay so I've started to get more and more glitches as time goes on.

My keyboard dosnt show up sometimes, and I would have to shut the app down and start again to gain my keyboard. Xda, messaging, browser. Anything that the keyboard can be used on really.

I'm using Swift key

Next apps randomly fc on me. Sometimes it's maps. Sometimes browser. Others it's xda itself. There is no pattern really. Maybe when my ram starts to get to full?

Second last is the glitch where the lock screen seems like it's not working. The I start opening apps and using them. About 30seconds to a minute, I hear the lock sound and my lock screen shows up. I'm using pattern.

And this I am hoping there is a saloution for. I don't have the option to make my phone a mass storage device. Any ideas?

Any help is appreciated. Thank you!
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
I use Swype and it does go through periods where it won't pull up as well. I notice this when ram consumption is high. High ram consumption also indicates to me that there are 1 or more memory leaks.

I'm always keeping my eye open for these fixes, especially in gerrit (where people post patches for merging into cm). The apps FC is most likely due to the ram consumption.

Your using the pattern/pin lock... I think that may be where we have a memory leak.

It's almost time for a new build anyways though, so we'll have to see what fixes cm applied between builds. It seems every build so far cm has applied a few updates that help performance. Fixing up the kernel config helped a bit. I'm also looking at upgrading the kernel to a 3.0.101 from 3.0.89, that may also help improve performance.

Do you have ksm/zram turned on? These are both supposed to help with low memory.
[Galaxy S II General] Screambloody:
I have a problem,my back camera isn't working(My front camera is working),I have like 4-7 weeks with this rom,but ago 1 week it isn't working.

Can you help me to solve this problem?

everything else is fine :)

Great job!

I have this logcat:

I can't post links :/

I used "/" in this link

[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
I'll have a look at your log and let you know what I can find.
[Galaxy S II General] Screambloody:
Thanks :)
[Galaxy S II General] irenek:
I had a few freezes as well, HW overlays are off.
[Galaxy S II General] RukusX7:
Is anyone having issues getting the phone to charge properly? My phone warms to above 40°c and won't charge.

Also having the same keyboard issue as Tronith
[Galaxy S II General] Tronith:
Okay I enabled zram. The keyboard is abit more responsive.

So you think the mass storage issue should be patched up in the new build?

---------- Post added at 10:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:39 AM ----------

Sorry I can't ever get multi quote to work. Anyway. I find if my gps and wifi, and blue tooth are on all at the same time plus I'm fiddling around with the phone it warms up crazily. Then the charge stops. Try to get a fan and cool it down plus turn off any of those features (preferable gps as that drains battery like crazy) and just let it charge untouched. Once it's cooled down by the fan it should return to normal. That's what I had to do in other builds.
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
That's crazy. I use go power master. It monitors my battery temp and warns me when it hits 40. That's when I stop using the phone and just let it charge.

You should technically not use your phone at all when charging. It is expected that it will get hot with that much power running through it's circuits.

I also do not use Wi-Fi, GPS and Bluetooth all at the same time for reasons of battery drain and also because it does get hot when every component is in use.

I think the GPS is still a little haywire though which would explain the battery drain there. I think that's related to the radio fw. I'll see if there were any updates to cm's ril handler which may help with that operation.

For the mass storage issues, are you using crossbreeder? It was determined by another user that this was due to that script. He said he reverted it and his storage stated working again. I also think he mentioned an update to the crossbreeder script which supposedly fixed that issue.

Let me know ;)
[Galaxy S II General] Tronith:
I not sure what cross breeder is. But I'll take a look into it.
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
If you're not already running it, you are experiencing a different issue. If I can get a log after you've tried to connect it to your comp and it fails, I'll look into this specific issue ;)
[Galaxy S II General] danrobi:
I can confirm, GPS is draining battery like crazy. I never had heating issues while charging since i almost always turn the phone off. And Titanic, turning HW overlay seem to have fixed the pull down notification freezes.
[Galaxy S II General] Tronith:
Oh no, it dosnt fail. I don't have an option to set my phone to mass storage. There used to be three options. I only have 2. Neither mass storage.
[Galaxy S II General] RukusX7:
I dont have the option either. your computer should still be able to connect to your phones storage. I can on Linux Mint 15. the USB connection on the phone is setup as Media Device (MTP). This is found under storage then menu button.
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
I've looked for that menu on a few occasions and never thought to press menu from the storage settings screen... duh ;)
[Galaxy S II General] Tronith:
Unfortunately I have a Mac, and I need the mass storage. So getting that option back is necessary for me.
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
Mac eh, I didn't know. I'll research it, there's got to be some sort of alternative. If not, I'll re-enable it in the kernel. I removed it because that's how the skyrocket was setup, which is why I think there may be an alternative. I'll let you know soon ;)
[Galaxy S II General] Tronith:
Much appreciated! And yeah, Mac. When I had the i9100 I still had a PC then I switched up to this phon but the pc fried and I only had the Mac to get this phone working. Odin dosnt work with Mac! Lol
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
You might be able to run it through wine (the Linux/Mac Windows visualizer) ;) I'll look into that at the same time ;)

EDIT:

Oh, and this will push the next build up a little quicker now ;) I'll work on that over the next couple of days ;)
[Galaxy S II General] Tronith:
No its okay. Its a old bad Mac. It aint getting any work done on it. But getting mass storage would be a great help! :)
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
Have you seen this? The android transfer app for Mac from Google? It's supposed to enable mtp support because apparently ics and up no longer support ums which is probable why it was disabled in the skyrocket kernel.

http://www.android.com/filetransfer/
[Galaxy S II General] RukusX7:
doing a quick google search, this is the best solution I see
[Galaxy S II General] irenek:
I have my notification drawer frozen now, it seems like a conflict with Lync messenger. Would you like me to get a logcat or something else?
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
Yes please, a logcat would be helpful ;)
[Galaxy S II General] irenek:
Here it is :)
[Galaxy S II General] slushee:
I apologize if this is an incorrect place to ask these questions, if so please delete, but you seem to really know this device upside down and backwards as well as the ROM.

I've been running your 10.2 stable for some time now and its a great daily driver! I was curious if you could help me out with some of the Performance settings (so i don't blow up my phone).

As you've posted earlier, I have set zRam to max and checked KSM. Allow purging of assets remains unchecked. All other performance settings have been left at default.

I would like to squeeze as much performance out of this phone so it is as lag free as possible (not that it is laggy, I just do not care one bit about battery life).

Is it safe to Change the CPU governor to something other than interactive, and also, is it safe to maybe to change the minimum cpu frequency to 1512 MHz?

Any help would be appreciated.
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
For best performance, use the performance governor. Your frequency will jump to max everyone you touch the screen. You'll love it, but battery will definitely be shortened dramatically. It will give you the least amount of lag though.
[Galaxy S II General] slushee:
So. Wow. Blazing fast doesn't describe it well enough.

Using while plugged in is getting a bit got however and I can't wait to see how far the battery drains.

+1 for your hard work. Really can't thank you enough for making this phone run the way it should have from the beginning.
[Galaxy S II General] RukusX7:
Doesn't the performance governor keep it at max frequency all the time? What you described sounds like an ondemand governor.
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
I think your actually right on that one ;) thus the performance increase.
[Galaxy S II General] RukusX7:
What I recommend for all of titanic_fanatics ROMs, is ondemand paired with deadline. Best performance and battery life with least reboot possibility.
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
Careful you don't burn out your battery or get it so hot that it damages any of the components in your device.

Try using go power master to monitor temp ;)
[Galaxy S II General] RukusX7:
You shouldn't run these phones or any for that matter at maximum continuously. They are only designed to run at max for short periods of time. Or you will run into issues like overheating and also possibility of putting yourself at risk of damaging you're battery or even having it explode!
[Galaxy S II General] bijon440:
The only time I run Max frequencies is when using games like temple run or subway surfer, (games that demand a very responsive screen playback) and that only for short times and I've had the device heat up rapidly after 20 mins or so, careful with the Max clock speed...
[Galaxy S II General] slushee:
So far, my results with the processor change.

Cpu-z shows that with the performance governor, as soon as the screen is turned on one core of the two cores automatically goes to 1512 MHz while the other core changes from stopped to max 1512 on an as needed basis. Most of the time the second core is around 300 MHz.

Battery temp appears to be around 38-40 c while unplugged and being used (no video games). Temp goes up to 48 c and voltage goes up to 4135mV while charging and being used. CPU-z also shows battery as overheat while charging and being used.

I am by no means a battery expert. I found a replacement battery on DX.com so I am going to get that on order asap in case the heat kills my battery.

When the phone is left charging and not being used it is very cool.

It's too bad the device cannot be powered and run at max speed without cause for heat issues. I suppose the tech is in its infancy and one day these problems will be solved.

I'll just have to be wary and make sure not to use the device while plugged in.

Edit - so it would appear that when CPU-z indicates overheat, the phone automatically stops charging even though plugged in. This happens around 48c. Looks like it will prevent itself from doing any harm. That makes me happy.
[Galaxy S II General] RukusX7:
Oh titanic_fanatic, the reason he may have different behaviours of his two cores is I've noticed your kernels in all ROMs, will set cpu0 to lagfree and cpu1 to what you've chosen for governor.
[Galaxy S II General] iDynamics:
I see that you have a new build up. Downloading now, won't flash until you give the go ahead.
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
Don't forget to download the new kernel for the latest build that fixes the vibrator. This will be incorporated into the next build.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=49221771
[Galaxy S II General] iDynamics:
When I was downloading your Dec 31st build I couldn't help but notice that there was a Jan 18th build. Should I just flash the Jan 18th one?
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
Your very observant :D that is a cm-10.2 build with the lightning zap kernel that rukusx7 found. It's not fully tested yet and needs to be as it's an overclocked kernel and we need to see how that performs on this device.

I only recommend it if your experienced and are very willing to "monitor" your device for temperature and performance. You would have to be careful with the governor's. I couldn't get the lionheart one to take, it kept rebooting my phone.

Bottom line, it's untested on this device so you are taking a risk that you do not take with my roms as I test them before I release them.

I can't remember exactly, but the overclock was over 1800mHz compared to our current 1500mHz. This could be potentially damaging to the hardware and cannot tell you for sure until tested although, what I would be looking for is overheating as a sign that it can't handle it.

There is also a voltage control app included that allows you to control voltage at each frequency. I'm not really sure how this works yet or what would be optimal settings, but it carries a risk of your device not booting. For that they have included a feature that creates a flashable zip for you to restore your original settings in recovery if this happens.

Well, that about sums it up ;)
[Galaxy S II General] iDynamics:
This may not be the best feedback since I've only been using it for a few hours but I'll give it anyways.

CPU Spy and System Monitor were used to log the cpu speeds in the few hours of using the test build

So far I've only used Interactive, OnDemandx, Performance, and OnDemand.

None of these governors allowed the CPU to reach anything over 1.5Ghz on a consistent basis. Min and max clock speeds would not stick. The min was set to 384mhz, but saw the cpu go to 192mhz several times. The cpu reached 1.6ghz for literally two seconds, after that the cpu never went over 1.5ghz.

OnDemandX caused the device to heavily lag, I checked the cpu frequencies using System Monitor and the frequencies were stuck at very low clocks. The max clock was slightly under 1Ghz.

OnDemand Max clock it went to was 1Ghz. Nothing I did solved the issue.

Interactive Probably the best one out of the bunch. Min freq didn't stick but at least it consistently reached 1.5Ghz under load.

Performance Max was 1.5Ghz, and like interactive it never went over that.

Temperatures were a a non-factor because the cpu never went out of spec. I used the voltage app that was included and it seemed to do its job.

Thank you.
[Galaxy S II General] RukusX7:
I plan on maintaining a kernel for our phone in the near future. Work has me really busy right now so titanic_fanatic has offered to help me out. I goal on having a fully functional glitch free kernel for us in the furure with your guys help. :)

---------- Post added at 06:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:00 AM ----------

Titanic_fanatic I noticed this kernel sets cpu0 to ondemandx and cpu1 to what you've chosen.
[Galaxy S II General] formercontra:
Can the latest build be dirty flashed? I'd be happy to play around with a new kernel if I didn't have to do a full wipe.
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
I feel like you should be able to, but as always, remember to take a nandroid first ;)
[Galaxy S II General] formercontra:
Where is the new build? it's not in the op or the Downloads section
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
It's not yet a new build, so it's not posted. You can find it in my androidfilehost.com repo under CM/10.2/cm-10.2-lz-kernel.

http://www.androidfilehost.com/?a=show&w=files&flid=11298
[Galaxy S II General] formercontra:
I've just been using Ondemand so far, but yeah max freq isn't going over 1.5. It's working just fine inside of the 192-1512 range though, and I always wanted voltage control so I'll stick with it.
[Galaxy S II General] RukusX7:
OK using kernel tuner I can see what governor is in use on what core as well as independent core MHz. Only problem is this causes a phone reboot when I choose that screen. Over clocking and voltage control don't appear to be completely enabled.
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
When I have a chance to message the maker, I will ask him about this.
[Galaxy S II General] EvilDan:
Sometimes the lock screen does not show any controls, only the picture is displayed. A reboot seems to fix it for a while but it eventually comes back. Is there a solution for this problem ?
[Galaxy S II General] sadowling:
Memory Leak

You guys are probably already aware of this (I apologize if I missed it in the thread already), but is our ROM subject to this bug? It seems to indicate that all CM10.2 based ROMS are affected.

https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/CYAN-2555
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
This one I save not seen. Too bad it's still marked as unresolved. I did find another similar post about systemui mem leak and have made a couple of changes based on that. It's not directly related to the status bar pull down but rather the systeui as a whole. Well see if that helps any. Build is in progress, and will be this month's build.
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
So I've been running the new build for a couple hours now and do far, have not had any screen blinking our status bar freezes. I'll probably end up eating my words, but so far so good. I'll have it uploaded for tomorrow morning. Then will start building the other rom updates ;)
[Galaxy S II General] iDynamics:
Looking forward to it. :good:

SIr plz help i m facing a problem

Sir , plz help i am facing a problem ....i had installed this rom and it works fine but after 15 minutes it restart phone and phone doesn't starts then.. it stuck on a black screen after Samsung logo...i have to install this rom again then but after 15 minutes it again shut down the phone nd then again it stuck on black screen ........but Stock Rom works fine ...
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
Hmmm, this is strange. It seems you are getting into a bootloop for some reason.

A couple of questions, which recovery are you using, philz or cwm and which version?

Have you changed any performance settings like the governor/io scheduler?

Have you modified the build.prop at all?

When you get into the bootloop, have you tried booting into recovery and clearing dalvik cache? This can sometimes help.
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
New Build is Up!

New build is up guys. This one has all of the latest updates from cyanogenmod plus I ported over the systemui fix from the cm-10.1 branch. So far, this seems to have assisted with the ram consumption of the systemui and so far I have not had any screen flickering (hw overlays are enabled - default setting) and my status bar has not locked up once. Actually, it seems much smoother in operation. I have not tested this with the pin/password lockscreen security, so please let me know if this is still an issue there.

The gapps package has NOT been updated, so if you have already downloaded the gapps with the last rom update, you do not need to download it again ;)

Without further ado:

Download

EDIT:

Almost forgot, the fix for the vibrator is already included with this build, so don't flash the vib fix ;)
