I was curious, I'd like to ask a question.

When I first put this ROM on (dated 2013 12 01) from stock for the first time, I accidentally left "Back up my data" and "automatically restore" checked in the settings.

I've noticed a few things now that dont seem to be working that are working for the rest of you.

First is the VM notifications as previously mentioned. The next thing I noticed is that when I check "Developer Options>Advanced Reboot" I do not get the option to reboot into recovery. The next thing is when I try to change my capacitive search button to bring up recent apps tray, it only brings up google search. The last thing is, last night I flashed the BLN .zip you guys were talking about. In the Advanced>Sensors section I click to Enable keys notifications. Unfortunately when I get a notification my capacitive buttons don't blink.

I am wondering, could all these little minor issues be messed up because the rom tried to automatically restore when i first installed it? Non of these minor issues are deal breakers as this ROM is blazing fast and the device is now so amazing. Before, with stock, it was a nightmare.

I was just curious why it seems like your devices are able to have these extra little functions or what I might have done wrong thats messing it up.

Thanks in advance. This ROM was the best Christmas present I got this year.

PS- I've read referance to something called logcat to produce logs to help trouble shoot but I don't seem to see it in the Play store. Do any of you know of a good logging app in case a dev asks for one one day?
[Galaxy S II General] formercontra:
Should maybe update the 1st or 2nd post in this thread with a how-to on logcats, it seems a lot of people keep asking about it.
[Galaxy S II General] swamp_mule:
I am also experiencing the intermittent vibrate function availability. My phone also does not connect very well to my Bluetooth hands-free car unit.
[Galaxy S II General] Tronith:
Thanks titanic! The Rom isn't lagging and the screen lock works properly now. There is no screen flicker. Everything is working great.
[Galaxy S II General] Socim:
Hi [MENTION=4859152]titanic_fanatic[/MENTION],

Glad to hear your KitKat is incoming.

As we share the same CPU and LCD panel, can you please let me know if the screen tearing problem is resolved?

I can confirm camcorder and video playback works for me now.
[Galaxy S II General] slushee:
Thats great news about the computer upgrade. I wanted to say that I upgraded to the latest version of CWM 6.0.4.5 which seems to have repaired the issue of rebooting and not having the vibration. So far, every time i boot the phone's capacitive buttons and vibration have come on.

I followed your directions and the lights came on and blinked exactly when i changed the value to 1 and turned off exactly when i changed the value to 0. I had trouble getting the logcat.txt document but finally got one. If it is not correctly created let me know and I will try again. EDIT the logcat.txt seems to be too big to upload to this post. I will attempt to get it to you another way.

Just to confirm, the issues are:

no VM notifications

no Boot to Recovery option once selected in settings

no Capacitive Button Flashing upon Notification once selected in settings

no change in Search Capacitive Button (pulls up Google Now) once selected something different in settings

a few icons show up on the home screen as "com.nianticp", "com.google." and "com.capigan" after reboot.

I'd be really interested to know if you see anything interesting in the logcat. I am already thinking about wiping the phone and installing the updated CM 10.2 dated Dec 23rd to see if that will fix any of these things.

Merry Christmas!

Hopefully you can access this logcat2.txt file from here.
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
Yes, I can confirm the video tearing is fixed (not by me though). It was fixed by using the "next" branch in our kernel repo from Cyanogenmod. Steve upgraded the kernel a bit and implemented zram and something else I can't remember at the moment. Now I have a bug where hw overlays are not working properly so to have a usable Rom, I created an init.d script to automatically turn it off every boot since it's a developer option that resets at every boot.

Attached is the init.d script I'm using, just rename to remove the .txt, place in your /etc/init.d folder and chmod with same perms as the others in that folder and your good to go ;) also I don't mind if you include it with your build, no need to ask ;)
[Galaxy S II General] iDynamics:
I'm not sure if I did this correctly but here. This is regarding my internal and external sd cards not usb mounting.

[Galaxy S II General] irenek:
Great new build TF! Thanks again! :)

Everything seems to work, but I have one tiny problem, TitaniumBackup refuses to restore anything, it just stops working ... Anybody else has this problem?

Here is a logcat, just in case:
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
Got it, and am reviewing it at the moment.

Thanks for the logcat. Two things I need to know that I can't tell from the log is do you have usb debugging on and are you using SuperSu? Titanium backup complains that it may not work properly using the bundled Su by koush
[Galaxy S II General] irenek:
I have usb debugging on, unknown services checked, but I use bundled Su by koush: it used to work fine before today, though it complained all the time previously :)

May be this is the case, that was my first thought, I will try to update to SuperSu
[Galaxy S II General] iDynamics:
It seems as if Crossbreeder was causing the issue of my sd cards not mounting. I ran the uninstall script in recovery, rebooted and now my cards mount. :laugh:
[Galaxy S II General] irenek:
Strange things started happening with my phone: contacts stopped working during incoming calls, so I just flashed it again (clean install), after that during the set up trebuchet was constantly crashing; New flash - on this attempt trebuchet felt better but whisperpush crashed ... CWM complained that I don't have root access anymore, I installed SuperSU without a problem and now Titanium complains that I don't have root access.

I have philz touch recovery and used "Clean to install a new ROM" option

I would appreciate any advice :)

UPDATE: Titanium FC is a bug in the latest version, I reverted it back and it worked. Wisperpush stopped complaining after TB revert as well.
[Galaxy S II General] big_biso:
After many builds, I finally decided to flush this ROM on my device. I have to say thank you Titanic for all that great work. I did not have many trouble following the instruction everything worked great out of the box. I cannot comment on battery life yet as I am using the phone heavily to test and install everything., but performance is so smooth and fast comparing to the stock 4.1.2 from Samsung.

I have 2 issues so far that could not figure out:

1- my preferred navigation app is Waze and it is crashing just after accepting the agreement so basically not starting. it is throwing a crash log file that have the following error:

(null) Received signal SIGSEGV 11. Fault address: deadd00d. Error: 0. Code: 1. Thread: ....etc

2- adding lock screen shortcuts works only with the slide and does not work if you choose pattern or pin security.

Thanks for all your hard work Titanic
[Galaxy S II General] Socim:
Thank you man, it works like a charm with overclock tweak and additional governors, no screen tearing so far.
[Galaxy S II General] slushee:
Just an update.

Got the urge to install the Dec 23rd version of 10.2 from Dec 1st version.

Followed the steps and made sure to format/wipe, format for new rom, wipe cache, wipe davlik cache, formate /data /cache /system, flash rom, flash gapps and flash radio

Upon boot I had Trebichet stop working during setup. I was left with a notification bar and a black screen. no matter what i did i could not get to the home screen.

I repeated the above process. Upon boot, a message starting with gapps stopped working.

I deleted the .zip's and re-downloaded them. Followed the above process. Upon every boot I got a message that stated "Android is updating" and WhisperPush has stopped.

After this, i got frustrated and flashed your 11.0 Kit Kat rom. Everything worked well with that and i'm sitting on the home screen. I'm not entirely sure what happened with the updated 10.2 install as no one else has indicated any problems with it.

Anyhow, since 10.2 is winding down and 11.0 is ramping up, i might as well stick it out over there. Just thought I would let you know.
[Galaxy S II General] irenek:
I had similar issue with Trebichet and WhisperPush, I think it was caused by the latest version of Titanium Backup that was updated on Dec 27th, everything started working properly when I reverted TB to older version.
[Galaxy S II General] slushee:
Could you post how you reverted Titanium Buckup to the earlier version to get this ROM running? I really liked the stability of it.

EDIT - back on CM 10.2 Dated Dec 1st. Apparently whatever is affecting the newer version is not affecting the earlier version.
[Galaxy S II General] bijon440:
Been on the new build for 2 days, had a spell of Fc's after first boot but nothing since, bit I'm using a very old version of titanium as well. Great work TF, this one seems very stable. Next ill take the plunge for kitkat when I have the time. Thanks!
[Galaxy S II General] irenek:
They fixed it on Dec 28, but I still have older version, here is the link from their website: http://www.matrixrewriter.com/android/files/TitaniumBackup.apk

Issues with Youtube app

Hey guys, I'm still on the Dec 1st build and one thing that hasn't worked is the Youtube app. Everytime I launch it, everything opens fine and shows the list of videos and I can even browse my history, etc... Anytime I click a video it shows that it's going to be a Ad that I can skip after 5 seconds then the application just closes with the "Unfortunately Youtube had stopped" message.

I have tried un-installing it and clearing the cache, restarting the phone and force stopping the app. None of that works. I was going to load the Dec 23rd Rom and reinstall the GAPPS package. Before I do that did anyone have issues with Youtube from the Dec 1st rom or am I the only one?
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
I think hw overlays are on in that build, try turning them off in developer options. Do you still get the FC? I haven't had any issues with YouTube since cm10 ;)

If you want to hang on a little bit for upgrade though, I finally got my new computer all setup and am just about to boot into Linux to start a new build ;).

Bills should take about an hour ish and then I need to test it before upload ;)
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
Wow, the new build is already done. Only took 35 minutes to compile which is about an hour faster than my old comp. It used to take about an hour and a half. This is awesome.

Well, I just have to test the new build to make sure it doesn't screw anything up since I tweaked the kernel a bit. Charging should happen faster as I increased the vbus_draw mA from 2 to 500 (same as the skyrocket).

No other fixes have been applied except for syncing the repo so all code was up to date as of 1:30pm (mountain time) today.

Testing will take a couple of hours ;)
[Galaxy S II General] JacksonJ:
Hey TF. I disabled he overlays and it worked once but errored with the same message the 2nd time. I tried enabling he overlays, disabling and even restarting.

I'm not sure about your FC question.
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
Well guys, I have a new build. I'm out right now for New year's so I'm not updating the OP until tomorrow. This build is very close to being stock cm. I no longer get the flickering and do not have the hw overlays disabled, so bonus on performance there. I have tweaked some settings in the kernel and think that's contributed to smoother operation :D I also increased (a lot) the mA for charging so it should charge faster. Please watch your battery consumption and make sure you remember to reboot after finished charging.

I did have some apps FC (force close) on me during setup, bear through then then just reboot into recovery and wipe only the dalvik cache, reboot and all should be well.

Same instructions for flashing as usual, remember to take a nandroid and I would recommend a clean flash for this build.

I think that's it for now ;)

Here's the links:

cm-10.2-20131231-UNOFFICIAL-celoxhd.zip (179.67MB)

GAPPS:

HAPPY NEW YEARS!!!

EDIT:

I almost forgot, candy crush is working again. This is thanks to [MENTION=3478918]rukusx7[/MENTION] who discovered a tweak in the build.prop that disables jni checking. It provides both a speed boost and fixes some apps the previously FC'd.

Thanks [MENTION=3478918]rukusx7[/MENTION] :D
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
FC means force close, it's the error message that you got.you said it happened again ;) try the new build and let me know how everything works out for you ;)
[Galaxy S II General] formercontra:
I got to flash the last build in the US, I'm going to miss the american Google Music features when I flash this update back home :( but thanks again titanic! The Dec 23 did extremely well on a long trip, I hit a new battery record with airplane mode on, 27 hours with 1.5 hours screen time (mostly music), excited for the new build!
[Galaxy S II General] manfromgta:
Thanks a lot TF for latest build. Downloading now. Just curious, what are the specs on that new computer beast you have? Lol. I got chills reading your comment about the speed of the building environment. Sorry for ot and Happy New Year to you and your family. :)

[Galaxy S II General] Blazing Hornet:
What's the reason for the required reboot after charging? I'm used to hardly ever rebooting, simply charge it every night and unplug it in the morning. It's a habit that is hard to change.
[Galaxy S II General] RukusX7:
There is a wakelock that keeps the phone from sleeping while charging. This wakelock doesn't always go away properly after you unplug, and your phone will not sleep properly. Thats where the reboot comes in.
[Galaxy S II General] iDynamics:
Been using this rom for a few hours. Excellent so far.

Thank you so much for all of your hard work. :good:
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
I'm now running a Gigabyte F2A88X-UP4 motherboard with an AMD A8-6600K quad core APU (Accelerated Processing Unit - CPU/GPU combo) with Radeon HD graphics running @ 3.9GHz (it's also overclockable) and I have 8GB of RAM. Oh, and it's 64 bit of course.

I have two drives, primary is 1TB and secondary is 2TB. Primary drive is where windows is installed and it gets the whole drive. My secondary drive is partitioned into 2x1TB partitions. I have 1TB at the beginning of the drive for backup storage and the second partition is where linux mint is installed. I have about 800GB to work with in linux which is why I actually added a SlimBean 4.3 build to my system in addition to the current CM10.2/CM11.0. I will post that one later on for those who are interested in SlimBean vs full CM as there have been a couple of requests for it. I may also add a build of PA since I have room and there have also been a couple of requests for an updated version of that as well.
[Galaxy S II General] iDynamics:
Hmmmm...Slimbean 4.3 :D. Definitely looking forward to that. Your 4.1.2 build was bloody fantastic.
[Galaxy S II General] GrAt_On:
Unable to download the latest build

Hey...

I am experiencing a lot of issues installing the latest build. As I reboot my phone after installation, errors pop up such as: "X has stopped working." I have reinstalled it numerous times as well as downloaded the build many times in case it was corrupt, yet there always seems to be an error (different application affected each time). Sometimes, when i enter Philz recovery, it shows in the bottom where text is shown that there's no cache space. For now, I have have done a Nandroid Recovery to a previous build of 10.2 which works fine. Thanks!
[Galaxy S II General] iDynamics:
Wipe both caches ^.
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
Did you reboot into recovery and wipe dalvik cache as I mentioned above? That should fix the FC's ;)
[Galaxy S II General] GrAt_On:
persistance

the problem still persists after wiping dalviv cache :/
[Galaxy S II General] Socim:
Can you play 1080P MP4 Video with HW overlay? I can't.

Happy New Year 2014.
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
And after you rebooted, did it say "android upgrading"? After debating the cache, it should do this to rebuild the cache.
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
I haven't tried video yet since the camcorder doesn't work but YouTube works ok. I'll test that next time I boot into cm-11 ;)
[Galaxy S II General] big_biso:
HI TF, Your new build is fantastic so far. your Candycrush fix also fixed my Waze navigation app startup. it was crashing after startup and the Waze error log was showing error installing and then initializing JNI.

I Was checking to see if the SmartassV2 govonor is fixed, but I some time see it working in the beginning, changing the CPU frequency, after I see it stuck at max. I am using currently the default interactive, but I see you recommend Ondemand. I did not see any difference between them (maybe interactive gave an extra 10% battery life). so far battery life is about 10-12 hours less than the stock 4.1.2 that I was on before, but that is debatable since I am experimenting with the phone more now).

the final question I have, is the slider shortcut does not seems to work with pattern or pin security. it only works when you choose slide as security. that might be how it works so I am not sure if it is a real issue.
[Galaxy S II General] GrAt_On:
Dont we already wipe dalvik cache before flashing the rom? Unless you mean wiping it right after flashing the rom as well? If so, I tried that as well :/ I'm now going to give a shot fixing permission through nandroid. Wish me luck! :)

---------- Post added at 11:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:31 PM ----------

Hey,

nvm, i got it, thanks so much :laugh:

Best rom yet, great work. However, I do notice the vibration functionality lingers :eek: Must be difficult to solve!

Happy new year people, may this be our greatest year yet.
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
Glad to hear you got it working :D I put a little explanation of dalvik-cache in the second post and explained how it works along with the explanation of how to take a logcat ;)

Happy New Year to you as well!
[Galaxy S II General] RukusX7:
Dual booting?
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
No, my process is daunting for development. nandroid backup -> flash rom -> test rom -> restore nandroid. I may have a device being graciously donated to me though which would make development so much easier ;)

I would love to dual boot though, not sure it's doable on our device though, our sdcard performance is pretty crappy to be running a rom from sdcard.

New build

Just flashed the new build, and on reboot it just says "Unfortunally, system UI has stopped" and i can't reboot into recovery. Any idea anyone???:confused:

---------- Post added at 11:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:52 AM ----------

Ok made it into recovery, went trough the whole clean flash process again, now it tells me com.google.process.location or media has stopped all the time. i can barely use the phone, it pops up all the time.
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
Boot into recovery and wipe dalvik cache. On boot after that, it will rebuild your cache and fix the FC's ;)
[Galaxy S II General] danrobi:
Thanks, i went back to the previous build. I will give this one another try tomorow.
[Galaxy S II General] GrAt_On:
Sometimes even after wiping, some new application could force close. Keep wiping until its fine at boot, I got mine in my second try. Cheers! :laugh:
[Galaxy S II General] danrobi:
Ok i flashed the new build for a third time, had the "UI has stopped" message again on reboot. Went into recovery and cleared dalvik, rebooted, and everything runs great since. :)
[Galaxy S II General] sadowling:
Audio playback

On the latest ROM...very nice. Solid daily driver for me. Great work as always TF.

That being said, I have had a weird issue with audiobook playback (Mortplayer). I don't use the phone for audio files very often, so I don't have much data on what other programs might be affected. Issue has been around for all 10.2 builds and goes like this:

1) Start Mortplayer, it picks up from last play point.

2) If playback is left to continue with no audio interruptions (e.g. text notification) then when the end of the file occurs, the player will keep playing beyond the end of the track (no error reported, clock counting normally, but beyond the cited track length).

3) If, during playback I get a text notification, then everything works fine until I pause/stop (so I end up sending myself a lot of texts).

3) Pressing Pause/Stop is followed by several seconds of continued playback as well (used to be instantaneous).

The app never gives me FC, just behaves oddly. Any thoughts?

Also, and admittedly unrelated, can anyone recommend a good ROM for SII i9100 (on Virgin Mobility so presumably the i9100M)? Its for my folks and searching so far shows a LOT of options...someone else's experience would be appreciated. Feel free to PM me so as to keep this thread clean. Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S II General] GrAt_On:
Well... your folk are in luck. Turns out the i9100m or 19100 (same thing, however different from i9100g) is actually in the list of officially supported Cyanogenmod devices:

Roms: http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=i9100

Gapps: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Google_Apps (CHOOSE THE ONE FOR YOUR ROM)

While if you're into Pac-man (blend of paranoid android, cyanogenmod, and AOKP, don't look further than:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2203444

There are many other roms for this phone considering it was very VERY popular when it came out. Just requires a search on Google, good luck! :)
[Galaxy S II General] Arodg25:
I just dirty flashed the new years eve release. And have no major problems yet. I get the odd flash the screen, but nothing serious. All the games I couldn't play before because of force close now work. I guess that's because of the initd change that was made. Another great update.
[Galaxy S II General] sadowling:
Officially supported Cyanogenmod will be an excellent start, thanks for the tip! I'll try alternatives if CM doesn't workout.
[Galaxy S II General] Blazing Hornet:
Pushed the phone to the latest 12/31 ROM and Gapps. It certainly runs faster now with the HW overlays enabled again. The lock screen bug is still there unfortunately. Within 3 hours of the new ROM being installed the lock screen froze. Froze as in the power button still pulled up the menu, the volume key still worked, touching the screen showed it detected the touch as the lower lights would light up but zero response from the keypad for the PIN to be entered.

Also one FC still remains even after wiping Dalvik, Configupdater.
[Galaxy S II General] danrobi:
For me, lockscreen does not freeze but most of the times it takes 3 to 5 seconds to appear after pressing power button but the hardkeys light up instantly. As for fc i had 3 apps that would FC including XDA, I had most of my apps backed-up and restored with System Tuner, i uninstalled those and reinstalled from the Playstore and it fixed the problem.
