Repos

TF I'm sorry that I haven't responded to you in a few days. I'm currently syncing repos with google and/or github for the cm-10.2 files. It's been running now for like 20 minutes. I hope I'm setting this up correctly as mixing both your instructions and those of Google have me slightly confused as I'm not using 12.04 Hardy like they have in their how-to. I've tried to adapt that to 13.10 as best as possible and I haven't really come across any problems unless I haven't read the output messages correctly as their flying by on my VM. I should be ready to code soon. Maybe I'll set up remote access on my VM so that you can RDP in and check to see that everything is ok? Any input?

Here is the logcat. I hope that I did the right thing.

I was wondering, which mod is the most stable and fast for this phone model? I'm thinking to change to another one since the slow answer of the phone is getting on my nerves. I really like that one, but I'm gonna wait.

The last official update that Samsung did is really crap. I can't even answer my calls since it always lag. I really don't like it. Can you recommend me a good mod non-stock?

Thank you

I have an interesting occurrence. I use fbreader from play store. While reading I must pull notification drawer down then return it in order to see SMS notifications coming in. Also the signal bars are hidden to unless I do the same. Any ideas???

Sent from my SGH-I757M using Xparent Cyan Tapatalk 2

Problem was solved. There is a default setting in fbreader to turn off button lights while reading. This setting takes down bln with it.
[Galaxy S II General] Screambloody:
Thanks for this ROM!,It's very well,I have used this ROM for 2 weeks,It's very stable. :good:

Previously I have been to using CMOD 9 and 10 of [MENTION=673068]dsixda[/MENTION],but my camera it isn't working very well with these ROMs[ I have used these ROMS like 1 year] and It aren't very stable[8/10],sometimes it reboots.

P.D.: I want to be Beta Tester for Kitkat!,I have added you on G+
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
They each have their own set of problems, and that would mean you need to decide what you're willing to deal with. In my personal opinion, I'm very happy with the current cm10.2 and will have a new build out by the end of the month. I'm very happy to have cm10 notification back and am willing to deal with the few works of this ROM.

Some people feel that dsixda's cm9 (ics) was the most stable, but I never actually tried that one since I had to have the latest.
[Galaxy S II General] pz1982:
Nice thread!
[Galaxy S II General] fab-4ever:
Knowing there will be a new build at the end of the month, I will wait to try that one! I hope it will fix or ameliorate the slow answer from when it wake up... That's the only problem I have with this mod.

Thx

so... I really liked [MENTION=3478918]rukusx7[/MENTION] 's automatic brightness levels, and I was bummed out that they couldn't be applied past DADOES. So, I've been trying to get them back into the framework for this rom, with no success thus far. However, I did get them into percentages, so they can be applied to the new slider format. Is there any way these values could be backed up in the new % layout, and could therefore be re-applied after every update? Google's offered nothing so far.

I'm still figuring out how to get the framework-res.apk into a flashable zip, but there may be a simpler way.
[Galaxy S II General] RukusX7:
Thank you!

I havnt bothered to make any new ones for the latest 10.2 ROMs because now you can split brightness levels yourself in CM 10.2 up to 16000 lumens. In Dadoes Rom, there was a glitch in cm's code that only allowed you to 3000 levels. quite a huge difference from 16000. So thats why I made the apk. :)

If you want to share your percentages, users can input them in themselves, which would not take very long to do. :)

---------- Post added at 01:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:44 PM ----------

and to make a flashable zip, just take a zip you know that works for our rom, and replace the files in it with your own. Perhaps change some text in your updater-script, so when its installing it displays the right stuff on your screen.
[Galaxy S II General] Brockman:
Laggy

Titanic - fantastic work on this rom, its probably one of the best custom roms I've had on this phone and I think I've had them all.

The only issue I'm having is that it is generally quite laggy. Every command has a 3 - 4 second lag. Any suggestions or just wait for the new build?

Thanks again!
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
Did you try changing the governor? I'm using smartassv2.

Settings -> Performance -> Processor
[Galaxy S II General] vickas:
This is the only fix that made my lockscreen (more or less) lag free. Up until now, it would often just show my home wallpaper and I would have to swipe unlock by feel.

Also, this may be confirmation bias, but notification pull down feels smoother, and hasn't locked up yet (I'll wait a couple days to be sure, but crossing fingers :D )

Now to see if I can add widgets and swipe unlock targets to my lock screen without issues...

This sounds like an occasional issue that I've only run into a couple of times lately, though it used to be a regular annoyance before the October 29 release.

I'm using Trebuchet, but it doesn't seem to be triggered by anything in particular, like a setting. When it does occur, something along the way (the boot process? I think it never happens while already running normally) starts hogging all the memory and there's no room for apps. I would look up the running apps in settings and at most 10 are running (less than I typically have without problems) and they are always restarting, there's far less free memory than usual, and no apps cached. When it happens to me it gets so bad that my AOSP keyboard keeps unloading and restarting while I'm trying to type :mad:

Fortunately it's not very often and a reboot typically fixes it. Next time it happens, maybe I'll have the patience to grab a logcat in between keyboard restarts.
[Galaxy S II General] formercontra:
Here are the automatic brightness sensor levels - now in percentages! Again, all credit to [MENTION=3478918]rukusx7[/MENTION] for originally creating them.
[Galaxy S II General] Brockman:
That did the trick! Thanks again!
[Galaxy S II General] vickas:
Well so much for that. At least it appears with the correct time now, long as I don't use widgets.

Notification drawer lockup also happened again, during a low memory situation. I think it may be a memory leak in Skype, so I will keep an eye on that.

Also the overlay flicker came back now. I changed debug.composition.type from gpu to mdp, but it's still an occasional flash. I'd much rather have that than a lock screen which won't tell me the time ;)

One positive note, Nov 11 kernel appears to be bringing the screen up quickly every time! Love The work you do Titanic!
[Galaxy S II General] iDynamics:
Switching to SmartassV2 causes the CPU to stay at Max frequency on my phone. I switched back to interactive and all is working fine.

The only tweak I have on my phone is crossbreeder. I disabled Governor tweaks but the cpu is still at max freq. Don't know whats wrong.
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
Try reverting back to interactive as you have done, and also make sure you uncheck set at boot. Then reboot phone. I haven't had a chance to look into this one yet, but I believe it may be a bug with the set at boot feature.
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
So it seems that the sysfs entries are not created when using a governor other than the defaults. I will have to fix this. This is why smartassv2 sticks at max. I would recommend reverting back to a default governor. Smartassv2 is only a tweaked version of on-demand, so setting the governor to ondemand is what I'd recommend until I can fix the sysfs issues.
[Galaxy S II General] RukusX7:
Interactive and ondemand both appear to be without bugs.

adaptive just reboots my phone,

lagree seems to like high frequncies

conservative I dont use

Smartassv2 keeps my phone at max freq no matter what i do

Using Kernel Tuner from the play store, it shows you what governor cpu0 and cpu1 are making use of. It is showing cpu0 as lagree and cpu1 as interactive. This is with default values, no performance settings at boot. Thought it may be a helpful to know
[Galaxy S II General] formercontra:
Two personal recommendations..

I've been using Viper4Android for a while now, it blows the standard DSP manager away. And it fixed my choppy music playback problem.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2191223

It's been included in other ROMs too

And there's also a spiffy new CM boot animation

It seems my phone has lost haptic feedback. I've rebooted a few times but no luck... any suggestions?

Thanks

<EDIT>

After a battery pull reset, it seems to be fine again.
[Galaxy S II General] grandmaster_b:
Does the tv out work on this rom?

Whats batterylife like ?
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
There was an issue with the tv over WiFi for one of us. He provided me a logcat, but haven't been able to figure out why that's not working yet.

Battery isn't horrible, but isn't stellar either. I average about 8 to 10 hours on regular use. If I'm using the browser (any of them) my battery drains very quickly. The battery drain with the browsers had always been an issue for me though, so all in all I'm pretty happy with the battery.
[Galaxy S II General] Michaeljwjr:
Thank you so much for your help in the previous. Here I'm getting a status 7 error. I tried going in and editing out the assert line, but when I zip it back up and try to flash the new zip file I'm getting straight to aborted. Any thougths?
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
With the flashable zips, don't unzip them. They are specially packaged with a method called store. Use 7zip to open the archive, drag only the updater-script to your desktop, modify it, save it, then drag it back into the 7zip window and accept when it asks if you want to replace the existing one. This will keep the correct compression ;)

Also, did you upgrade your cwm and radio as mentioned in the OP ;)

EDIT:

I should also mention to not edit with notepad since that will save with Windows line endings. Edit with notepad++ (free to download) this will preserve the line endings ;)
[Galaxy S II General] grandmaster_b:
Hi Titanic I mean tv out using the MHL adaptor ? I remember on my old i9100 that it was only the stock rom that worked with the MHL adaptor for tv output.

I only just bought the phone from amazon seller so just checking out all roms ready to test before it gets delivered next week and yours is top of my list !

I hope you keep developing for this phone because its a really good phone ! Who needs a quad core phone ? :)
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
Well, I remember enabling mhl on the kernel because it wasn't enabled on ours and was enabled on the skyrocket. I didn't realize it was for tv out though. I'll look into it to see if I'm able to test it as I don't know how to set it up ;)
[Galaxy S II General] Michaeljwjr:
I did edit with notepad from within the zip and it still worked out great. I am now running Cyganomod, thank you so much. Do you have a donate page? I'll buy you a beer.
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
Excellent, glad to hear you got it working ;)

If you open xda on your desktop browser to any of my posts, there should be a donate button under my username, thanks for that ;)
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
[MENTION=526242]grandmaster_b[/MENTION] I will need to pick up one of those converters to test ;) until then or if anyone else has one to test with, my best guess is it will work since I've enabled it in the kernel. Worst case scenario, it's not supported in cm, but I suspect it's only the drivers that are required to make it work ;)
[Galaxy S II General] grandmaster_b:
Thanks TF!

I have one and my phone should arrive next week so I will let you know.

The issue on the i9100 was it would out put bit only in portrait mode so no good for watching movies so must have been drivers.

So if it is drivers is it possible to port drivers from stock Samsung ROM?

[Galaxy S II General] Michaeljwjr:
Has anyone been able to SIM unlock their phone? SGH-I757M?
[Galaxy S II General] neptune_:
Is SIM unlocking different from 'regular' unlocking? I have no idea...

Anyway, I had mine unlocked to use with Telus.
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
Did you go the pay for a code route our were you able to do it for free?
[Galaxy S II General] neptune_:
Had to pay for unlocking. Was $35 at the time.
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
This seems to be a default in one of the games native libraries. I'm not sure if it's a bug in the native library or if it's a bug with the Rom but will let you know if I find anything ;)
[Galaxy S II General] Michaeljwjr:
oh yeah is there any way to increase the headphone volume? The volume is terribly low.
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
Under Settings -> Sounds -> Volume do you have safe headset volume checked? Try unchecking itand see if that helps ;)
[Galaxy S II General] Michaeljwjr:
Yeah I already checked that, still really low. Back before when it was stock, the volume in my headphones was great.

* new build up *

Download

Alright guys, the new build is up. Check the OP for the change log. It's mostly CyanogenMod updates, but the system feels more stable at this point. My notification drawer works better ;)

Always remember to take a nandroid before flashing ;)

ENJOY!!!

* UPDATE *

I'm now running Philz Touch Recover 6.01.0 :D It's fricken amazing. it has so many settings for ui, you can change the background/text colors turn the background image on/off change the background image and so much more. I will post the link to the thread as soon as [MENTION=4666971]Phil3759[/MENTION] has posted the thread. The touch is just awesome, and I love the default background :D
[Galaxy S II General] iDynamics:
Thanks! Going to flash later.

Really excited to install your new build and the new recovery.

MHL doesn't work. I just plugged mine in to confirm. MHL only works on Sammy roms. It used to work CM roms about 11 - 12 months ago for video playback only, but they've since stopped supporting it.

Battery and Case

Hey, thanks a lot Titanic for your stupendous work. Lately though, my battery life has been below par. I have been wondering if you are using an extended battery, I have been unable to find any at the moment. On top of that, what cases do you recommend for the SII HD LTE? I have noticed this phone isn't very popular, very hard to find the appropriate accessories...

Thanks :)
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
This sucks, I just found a couple of posts about it too. I haven't found the commits that supposedly made it work, but I'm looking. Just because cm doesn't want to support it doesn't mean we couldn't forward port the old code get working again. No promises, but I'm looking into it ;)

There is an option under Settings -> Wireless and Networks -> Wi-Fi -> Advanced -> Scanning Always Available. Make sure this is turned off and set it to turn off Wi-Fi while the device is asleep. These will help with battery. Also, make sure your screen brightness is down to around 30% (increase brightness only when absolutely needed). I have also disabled notifications and automatic updates from playstore app as it uses allot of battery. Facebook is another huge consumer and would recommend restricting it's updates with an app like greenify or remove it entirely.

Unfortunately as the OS improves and gets more features, the more battery it's going to consume. We just have to keep an eye on things and adapt our patterns and settings to follow suit. With the above tweaks, you should be able to extend your battery a little longer. Oh, also, airplane mode really conserves battery so if your in a situation where you don't need internet and don't need notifications (like during a meeting) turn on airplane mode to save like crazy.

I have heard of others using extended batteries, but do not use one myself. I choose to stick with the stock battery as Samsung doesn't make an extended battery for this phone. There are devices out there that you can bring with you that hold additional charges, like the one I just bought my dad for Christmas. It holds two additional charges so if his phone dies, he just plugs it into the device with the micro usb cable and it will charge the phone. This particular model has a display showing the remaining power others don't have the same feature. I got mine from memory express if you have one in your area and the brand is pny and it's called a power pack. It was regular $50 on sale for $20 for the black Friday weekend.

For cases, I went to cellaris. They are kiosks in malls. I got a gel case for my phone for $30 I think. I also have a screen protector from ghost armour. The scratch resistant material used on military helicopter blades ;) it cost $30 the first time, and when I need a replacement, they install it for $5 and because the product has a lifetime warranty, the new cover itself is free so only $5 for replacement. I replace it every 2 to 3 months (I'm pretty rough with my phone)

It will help you to understand how to work with philz recovery and you'll be glad you did.

A quick note, for any of your settings to stick between reboots, you must first enable automatic settings restore and then save your settings configuration to sdcard. This will force your saved settings to load everytime you boot into recovery ;)

Developer Options?

Flashed the new updates and it was a bit of a process with the older CWM (black screen after clean install, had to remove battery and reflash). I installed the latest CWM (Philz), re-flashed all and it seems to have finally worked. Fast & smooth. Nice work.

I cannot find the "Developer Options" checkbox anymore though to access performance options or add the "Reboot to Recovery". Any suggestions?

Philz Touch 6

Not sure if this is related to Philz Touch 6 or the state of my phone, but...I'm getting an error in CWM saying:

E: Error in /cache/recovery/log (No space left on device)

I thought I had lots of room available as I do not keep much on the phone...is there a way to clear up room for this?
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
That's only the cache partition (only 100 MB). Try clearing dalvik cache which resides on /cache/dalvik-cache. That should clear up the error ;)
[Galaxy S II General] sadowling:
gapps contents?

I'm coming from DADOES latest and was expecting the same GAPPS...Navigation, My tracks, Maps, Earth, etc, etc...

Do the GAPPS in your latest link have a smaller subset? Or am I doing something wrong? As well, the camera appears to be missing the Photosphere mode (or is this also by design?)

I'm also able to get the camera to FC when I put it in panorama mode (starting in portrait) and then rotate the phone to landscape. Anyone else able to repeat this? Lastly, I had a random reboot when trying to select a left-side lock-page. Have not been able to repeat it so no logcat, sorry.
[Galaxy S II General] titanic_fanatic:
If your coming from dadoes, you must do a clean flash. Dirty flash is only if upgrading the same major version (ie: android 4.3.x) this most likely explains the FC.
