Hello

Thank you very much for your feedback. One thing you mentioned might be really helpful.

But I've got a few questions:

1. Does this happen with the "Slide to Unlock" method which is also the default one?

2. When you press the Power Button, the screen lights up but the dial pad for entering the PIN code is not displayed. Is that correct? What happens if you want to press the Power button again? Does the phone react as expected? Does it turn off the light? What if you do this multiple times? Does the dial pad appear this time?

3. Did you encounter this issue with the default kernel in Alpha 6 (version 3.4.86) or just with the latest one?

4. Did you always have the security for the lockscreen set to PIN? Even in Alpha 5?

Thank you. :)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] coliv_aja:
Hi arsradu,

That's issue also happen with "slide to unlock" method. I encountered since previous build. The logcat similar to what I post before. It just invisible, I can still slide to unlock. After I lock again it's back to normal. It's often happen when app working in the backhround , like when I do backup with TitaniumBackup. Kinda like lack of memory.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Paul_Kolanjian:
In response to your questions Mr. Radu:

1. The default "Slide To Unlock" lockscreen has no issues at all. It works as expected with no freezing.

2. Yes, the power button did have a delay at first but, eventually, the screen turned on with no pad to enter the PIN (haven't tested the "Password" lockscreen though). Upon pressing the power button again, the screen functions normally, that is, the electron beam animation is displayed when screen is turned off even when the lockscreen freezes, so no issues with multiple screen-offs and ons. The light, including the LCD screen and the touch keys light is turned off when the power button turns the display off, no matter how many times they are pressed, so the only issue remaining is the missing number pad. Note that pressing the power button multiple times or even waiting for a minute or two does not solve this "annoyance".

3. The issue is rather reproduced on the latest kernel (3.4.89) and the default one isn't showing the lockscreen freeze issue (at least not on my side), so I can confirm that the latest kernel gives me this particular issue. (will do further testing to solidify my approach)

4. Yes, no matter what firmware I used, stock or custom, I configure the lockscreen to PIN lock, and I've used CyanogenMod 10.2 alpha 5 for quite a descent time, and during this time span, not a single issue or annoyance has appeared, whether it was the lockscreen or not.

As I said Mr. Radu, I don't want to mislead any user reading these posts, for the issue happened to me specifically and might not be the case for others. Another "minor" bug I experienced is the electron beam animation of screen-off. The animation, when I pressed the power button for the first time and before setting up my lockscreen to PIN lock, didn't display correctly, rather gives a short delay of 1.75 seconds and then turns the display off with no animation (tested on latest kernel). This report is not too crucial but I indispensably decided to post it in order to relief the discussion threads from such repetitive posts. So, if anyone by chance is using alpha 6 with latest Linux kernel, expect to "potentially" experience some of the issues I mentioned (there's a probability, not a possibility) and the CyanogenMod 10.2 alpha 6 build is too stable for any kind of usage, whether it was gaming, web-browsing, chatting, phone calls or any usage out there. God be with you Mr. Radu in the hopes of seeing your work, even beyond XDA, proliferate :) Have a nice day
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
Thank you very much for you detailed reply. :)

I'm confused. I've got users saying that this was happening even in Alpha 5, whereas others say that there was no such issue in Alpha 5.

So let's try the following test case with Alpha 6 and the default kernel (the download link can be found below):

1. in case you don't have it already, get Titanium Backup from Play Store (if you didn't buy it already, you don't have to).

2. open it up

3. lock the screen

4. wait just about the same period as you did before when you encountered the issue.

5. note the result

6. install kernel 3.4.89 and go through the test case again

7. report the results for each case

Default Alpha 6 kernel here.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Paul_Kolanjian:
Test Report

Good afternoon Mr. Radu :) (according to my time). I come with magnificent results!

1- Default Alpha 6 Kernel:

As for Titanium Backup Pro (I already have the paid version from the Play Store), I decided to install the Alpha 6 build with a pristine installation to ensure no previous system applications have data stored that may cause instability or any other issues. I went through the installation setup (CM Account and Google Setup Wizard), configured my lockscreen to PIN lock as usual, downloaded the Titanium Backup app from my account, and opened the app as you asked me to perform. Thankfully, the lockscreen is working better than ever with default settings (nothing modified), and the number pad is showing up the instant I press the power button, additionally the display is functioning normally with no delay whatsoever. After I enter the PIN lock, Titanium Backup Pro is still there running fine and smooth, so the default kernel (I believe you have a typo in that last reply in which you meant to say "Default Alpha 6 kernel") is giving no issues, bugs or annoyances at all.

2- Linux 3.4.89 Kernel:

After performing the test you kindly asked for, Mr. Radu, I went on and flashed the latest Linux kernel for CyanogenMod 10.2 and wiped cache and Dalvik cache as usual, and the phone booted fine with no lockscreen issues. However, I'm not sure the results for the second test are expected by you or not (or if the results are at all good..), but I did open Titanium Backup and my lockscreen was still set to PIN Lock, yet this time, I had the lockscreen freeze bug, unfortunately, I don't know what happened to Titanium Backup app whether it was still running in the background or not since the phone was no longer usable and all I could do was take screenshots, use the volume rocker or access the power menu. In case the results don't help, I am willing to go in further if you want me to, Mr. Radu, and I could do some more testing if it is required. :)

In order to provide a summary of what I did (number 1 is for default kernel test, and number 2 is for the Linux 3.4.89 kernel test):

1- Pristine installed CM 10.2 Alpha 6, opened TB app, locked the screen, accessed the lockscreen flawlessly and multiple times as well.

2- Flashed Linux kernel 3.4.89 for CM 10.2 Alpha 6, phone booted fine, lockscreen was accessible at first boot, opened TB app, locked the screen, waited about 3 minutes, lockscreen freeze annoyance appeared, waiting or multiple power button pressing did not bypass the lockscreen freeze.

Currently, I'm using the CyanogenMod 10.2 alpha 6 build with the default Linux 3.4.86 kernel with no issues at all, the battery life is amazing, the performance is superb and everything is working as supposed to. Thank you Mr. Radu for trusting me in taking the required tests and for releasing such a solid-stable update, I am pleased to be part in helping development in the hopes of bringing this ROM to an even more stable state ("stable-er" than stock :) ). God be with you sir!
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
Hello and thank you very much for another round of detailed test results. :) Well done.

Now, from your results all I can tell is that the 3.4.89 kernel version might have some issues (not sure what exactly though).

But then it doesn't quite explain why is it freezing for you with kernel 3.4.89 and freezing for others with Alpha 5 and Alpha 6 (default kernel).

This is what's confusing me. On another note, I took a look at coliv_aja's log file and so far, this seems to be a kernel issues indeed, but not with kernel 3.4.89 or not just with that one, but also with the default Alpha 6 kernel and probably the previous one as well.

And yeah, my previous post was supposed to say Alpha 6 default kernel, not Alpha 5. Fixed now. :)

Thank you!
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
Hello guys

If you're wishing to help (which I hope you are), here are two kernel variants of the 3.4.89 kernel in an attempt to fix that lockscreen annoyance that some of you are encountering. Please, let me know your results.

Variant 1 here.

Variant 2 here.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] IWRH:
All right sir lets see how it goes! :D I will flash the Build 6 for testing stay tuned :)

Edit: I have flashed Build 6. I tried to simulate the scenario but i wasnt able to so i cant say anything... But which i found is under stress lockscreen freezes and unable to switch to camera or widgets... But after pressing power button multiple times it didnt fixed but i was able to unlock screen. ( i have pin security ) BUT there was key pad for UNLOCKING.

I wish my feedback helps you! :D [MENTION=4022876]arsradu[/MENTION]

Hello Mr. Radu

I am trying to build a custom kernel for CM10.2

I cloned arco's repo and made my config and features and compiled it and extracted your kernel to replace modules and zimage ..

but it hangs at black screen after samsung logo, can you update your repo on github for cm10.2 kernel?

Thank you
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] scorpion26:
how about battery time ?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] coliv_aja:
Thanks,

Are you tried game like Subway Surfer. Did it run smoothly. I'm not playing game on sgw though, just for testing the performance. On other 4.3 roms, it's laggy. It's smooth on all 4.2 roms.

I will try it soon, my sdcard is full, I need to backup my current rom when I arrive at home :)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
The problem is most likely in the changes made. Also, make sure you're using this CM10.2 build. I'm using arco's kernel sources.

But as a side note, yep, I will update my sources as well. :)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Xhemal1325:
:D

Hello, so i wanted to ask some thinks about this room ?

1. Is more faster than 4.2.2 ? or the same ?

2. IS it stable ?

3. good or bad at battery ?

4. and thanks to dev for making it :D

I asked those cuz im flashing to much rooms in my phone, and this meaby can brick my phone !!!, THANKS
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Madridii:
Thank you, I will see where is the problem ( I cherry-picked the commits of my CM10.1 kernel )
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] khusika:
Finally, we got CM10.2 again.. thanks sir :thumbup:
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] ali7557:
Hi man.

Advertising does not fast or not..Especially op.

They vary from person to person.

Do Test and see.

OK.

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] ianfebriyanto:
something weird on me. after flash, and it can boot to home screen. but after I reboot i got stuck in gslaxy w logo. of course I following the OP how to instal this, and of course I'm not instal app or restore my app backup after flash yet. just fresh, and try to reboot after it boot into homescreen after flash, I got stuck in galaxy w logo, anyone same with me ?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] eryzerz:
Arsradu would be the next arco hahaha:thumbup:
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] LeroViten:
No, man... I have just rebooted successfully. Don't even know why this could be happening and not only to you. What is your revision of a display panel?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] freinet:
Hey asradu, great job, but I can't restart after installation. It stops at the galaxy w logo. I tried two downloads and installed three times, every time clean install.

You see not even one person have this problem. ;)

freinet
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] miki2o:
This happens also to me, [MENTION=4022876]arsradu[/MENTION] if you want to fix try this: Increase clock frequencies at boot and increase Voltages ;)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
Thank you very much for your feedback. :)

Do you know how to properly flash a kernel? If you do, can you, please, try the two kernel variants posted above and tell me if any of those fixes the lockscreen issue?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] IWRH:
Haha sir i hope you are kiddin me :D Sure i can ^^ And there is another bug even orientation is disabled my wonder can go to landscape mode magicly :D

And statusbar is not responding I will post the links for screenshots (Sorry I don't have time to change phone language to English but if u wonder which language is this its Turkish)

And as we know SystemUI.apk also effects lock screen so we need to take look to it I think :D

After a clean reboot Trebuchet redraws a lot and this makes me think if device need to process something related ui it having problems.

I will check the kernels ASAP.(its too late now)

Regards!

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
Thanks for the screenshots. :)

Please, try those kernel variants I posted above because the statusbar not responding might be another consequence of the same issue so, one of those variants might fix it too.

I don't know what to say about orientation yet. We'll see. But first I would like another confirmation on this one from someone else.

So the issue is that supposedly you can turn your phone into landscape mode even if the orientation is locked. Can anyone else confirm this?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] FelixMG:
Unfortunately there's no kernel that works on 4.3.1. The problems with the stock kernel are the same on CM10.1, CM10.2 and CM11. But for 4.4.2 there's a custom kernel that makes KitKat works on GT-I8150B. Will this help?

Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
You, Paul, should become a writer. :))) You wrote so much. And I can't complain. It was a pleasure to read and the fact that your English skills are good, helped a lot.

Well then, the second kernel will be embedded into the next build which is gonna come out soon. :) Also I will replace the default 3.4.89 kernel here with the second variant you tested.

About the memory. Yes, it's normal to have 341 MB left after flashing the first variant and 340 MB after flashing the second one cause this was the actual sacrifice I needed to make to fix those issues you guys mentioned above. They were caused by insufficient memory so I added more memory. The problem is that, by adding more memory there, the user will have less memory left for other apps. What can I say? The "perks" of running on 512 MB of RAM.

Anyway, thank you very much for testing. Awesome test results. Good job! :)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
If it's just a kernel issue, then yes, it might help to know which one does it work with that specific SGW variant.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] sir mordred:
What a long massage ;) Paul why are you writing such long post? ...Just joking ..:D:D

Have a nice evening all of you guys

Hello, guys

Alpha 7 released. Changelog and download links on the first page.

N-joy.

Thanks to arco68 for the tips and to Paul_Kolanjian for testing. :)

Cheers!
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] hiitsme123:
thank you arsradu for this great ROM. using it for the past 3 days. its better than other JB roms which i used for SGW :) I also see that build 7 is released. i will try it out soon!!

keep up the good work arsradu :cool:
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] IWRH:
Ty for update sir! Download it asap but im on Build6 with Variant 2 (28mb) and lockscreen bug is still there sadly... Lock screen is all empty... Screenshot is down below! And also the magic orientation is happened again to...

https://mega.co.nz/#!25hjBC5S!8ze3r593ZsQ_5gUK7I5Aem6MZIgaTUKk6pThXSiVM3M

With my best wishes!

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
Hello

Thank you very much for your feedback. :)

I wasn't able to reproduce the orientation bug.

Also, for as far as other people said, the lockscreen issue seems to have been fixed as well.

So, what I would recommend is to make a pristine installation of Alpha 7 by following ALL of the steps below:

Enter CWM and:

select "wipe data / factory reset"

go to "mounts & storage" and format /system. This is extremely important!

under the same menu, format /sdcard0 (be careful NOT to format /sdcard1 by mistake)

install CM10.2 (from the external sd)

install Gapps for JB+ (from the external sd)

reboot your phone

If you've got contacts, calendar entries, images or movies on the internal memory, please, move them somewhere on your PC or External SDcard before attempting flashing the ROM using the method described above.

I really liked this rom, but the performace wasnt so good, so i wiched to cm 9, but i used Build 5 :P, can someone confim that do we have a performace improvment on this last 2 builds ? :cowboy:
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] soralz:
I notice this ROM have some bug. When the phone is in deep sleep mode, plug in earphone / head phone the phone will died off. Pressing menu, power won't wkae the phone, have to long press power to reboot.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
Hey guys

I need someone to test the upcoming version (Alpha 8) of this ROM, since I'm not using this phone anymore. Who's up for it?

Requirements:

1. attention to details

2. someone willing to make a clean, pristine installation of the ROM, by following all the installation steps mentioned on the first page

3. a SD card for creating a nandroid backup

4. about 300MB of free space for downloading a test video (it's one of the reasons for the new version)

Oh, and did I mention 392MB of free user RAM? :) Yeah, that too.

Please, let me know in a post below.

I only need one person.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Xhemal1325:
And could u tell us whats the Changelog for the new build ?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
You want to know the changelog for an unreleased build? :) This can change by the time the build is released, you know that, right? That's the point of the test itself. To see if there is anything else to do before releasing the build officially. :)

Anyway, if 392MB of RAM and my previous post don't mean anything to you, then I should probably just release the build.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] theloneseeker:
I can test it and report to you to the best of my Knowledge.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:

:))) And your system is gonna run on...what? Water?

I don't know, man. If this is smooth enough for daily use, I'm not sure why would you risk compromising this with greediness.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
You're welcome. Glad you like it. You should have seen AOIP. :) Now that's a damn fast ROM. Unfortunately it's 4.2.2 and now it's EOL due to lack of proper sources to build with.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Redwraith96:
Thanks radu this rom its silky smooth :)

The amount of ram is increased(>265Mb used),might be due to exposed framework?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
The total amount of user RAM has been increased to 392MB by switching to CMA. I personally don't think exposed framework has anything to do with it (unless you installed some tweaks for that), but, of course, I might be wrong.

Also, personally I don't care much about the amount of used/free RAM as long as the ROM's performance is good.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] TiTAN-O-One:
Hmm, i thought the amount of RAM could affect the ROM's smoothness? Especially if we're lacking RAM and the system had to kill some apps, there should be notable system slowdown isn't? Im facing this issue on CM11.

CM11 Powered G-Wonder ;)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
The amount of system RAM (the one that is not visible or available to the user) can and does affect the ROM's performance a lot more than the user's RAM, and that, even with no 3rd party apps installed. The amount of user RAM (in this case, the 392MB) is for you, the users, to be able to load your apps in it. The available user RAM can also affect the ROM's performance, when it's full, and that is more visible when the total amount of RAM (user + system) is low by default.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Redwraith96:
The amount of user ram doesn't affect the smoothness but check this screenshot :

wow that looks amazing, have u tried cm 11 ? u think this is better than cm 11 ? :D

I asked those because i really want a good rom, CM 11 is great, but it has still some stupit bugs :(
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] amjad essa:
this rom btter than cm11 i think it bug free coz last month i changed many roms all cm11 roms , cm9, cm10... cm10.1 .. this rom has fluidty of cm 10 and perfomance of cm9 and battery life better than stock gb roms .. lag free since i use many massaging apps (telegram,viber,voxer) its very smooth when you open the app and close it .. just try it i really love it ...
