OK, now I am also finally running CM11 on my i9000 :) I really love it (bravo again pawitp, like always!). It was, however my turn for having a hard-time:

after first installation that went like a charm, I've installed zips of Sema3.4.0s and KK-BigMem-libs from Mackay (just like I ran my CM10.2) in CWM and tried to reboot

my i9000 didn't want to reboot anymore, also recovery mode was gone

I've flashed then JVU stock with Odin, rooted it (CF) and solved missed dbdata.rfs error (first time happened)

attempt to install CM10.2 zip failed, CWM recovery was rebooting very quickly in loop (I think CWM couldn't mount SD card, not sure)

once again my old, good unbricking workflow with flashing Froyo stock (without downgrading to its bootloader) saved the situation

Now after spending some time (in vain, good I am on vacation now) CM11 works like a charm again, but I would really like to know did I do something wrong in the workflow with Sema/KK-BigMem zip and, respectively, with CWM 3xxx trying to flash CM10.2 directly from JVU?

It happened with 20131222 nightly

Can't add lockscreen widgets

Hey guys - is there an ability to add in lockscreen widgets? I checked the usual suspects:

Nothing under SETTINGS LOCKSCREEN

No ability to swipe left with widgets maximized

No 'enable widgets' check on SETTINGS SECURITY

Something messed up?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] knuckles1978:
Have you disabled low mem mode?

Easy way to tell is checking your status bar. If it's solid black instead of translucent then you have low mem enabled, which also doesn't let you have lockscreen widgets. To change it download build prop editor from the play store, look for the value 'ro.config.low_mem' and change it to 'false' or just delete the line completely. Save and reboot. Then you can have your lockscreen widgets.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] crofalcon:
Would you mind telling me what exactly (or approximately) does lowmem do? I've only got my phone to browse on and I can't find anything specific about it.

I've been using cm for some time now but have never encountered that before. My status bar is solid black (although I never paid attention to it before, and would probably say it was always solid black)

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zri:
its for low memory devices like ours, disabling it enables transparent status bar and the "okay google" feature from the homescreen but it takes up more battery and RAM in return.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] crofalcon:
Thanks, I guess I'll keep mine on. I'd rather have longer lasting battery than a transparent status bar. (If that's really what it comes down to)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zri:
yeah, i used to enable it because i like the transparent status bar and "ok google" feature, it's pretty cool to show off to friends that you have KitKat on our old phone, ive disabled it along with location lately and guess what happened.. +1 hour more onscreen time, i've almost gotten 5 hours max, i think i need a new battery to achieve that much though :victory:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tetakpatak:

I'm not running any other kernel now but your stock kernel.

I have a little problem:

Mobile hotspot isn't working with nightly 20131222 is it a known bug?

When I turn it on (under settings), it displays "error". I can enable Wi-Fi again by enabling and disabling the airplane mode.

Logcat attached.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] guijarrelson:
I looked that GPS performance is degraded in the latest 3 nightlies. Since wednesday 18/12/2013, GPS lock is laggy.

How can I get logs of GPS in the latest nightly to help you? Normal logs are valid?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pawitp:
Did you do a data restore using CWM? It has the tendency to not restore SELinux context properly. You'll need to reset your Wi-Fi data using the following command in a root shell.

rm -rf /data/misc/wifi

For the millionth time, there has been no changes in GPS libraries. I predict that it will "magically" start working again some nightlies after.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tetakpatak:
I only had to restore my last nandroid backup while still on CM10.2, short before upgrading to CM11

I will try the command, thanks.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] nekuy:
Hi,

After rooted JVU "first attempt to install CM10.2 zip failed, CWM recovery was rebooting very quickly in loop" is a known fail.

You should remove and insert the battery and boot to CWM recovery. Second attempt to install CM10.2 zip is not fail and you have a new CWM and installed CM. Also you can install directly CM11 with this path. This way requires 2 times install CM*.zip. In first one install CWM and bootloader, second one CM.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Ommadawn101:
Something is going wrong with CM11 on my device

This is repeating almost everyday.

Immediately after I d/l and flash the new nightly, the device is smooth and running well.

Switching between open apps goes very quickly, browsing and sms'ing works fine.

But, after a couple of hours of normal day to day use (e.g. browsing the internet, texting, phone calls, whatsapp, etc, I don't have any games installed, and I don't use my device for gaming at all!), the lags are becoming unbearable!

Switching between apps takes 2-3 minutes

Sometimes just trying to unlock the device takes a full minute or two.

Starting basic apps like chrome or whatsapp takes like forever. etc. etc.

And again, once flashing the new nightly, everything is smooth again
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tetakpatak:
Yep, that solved it :)

Thanks, Pawit you are once again my i9000 hero, like ever!

---------- Post added at 11:03 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:00 AM ----------

Try to use app Clean Master and as soon as the lags get noticable, boost (clean) the memory.

Our i9000 has only 500MB RAM, running whatsapp is already a high performance task for it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] allandacruz:
Can't stay two days with any JB-KK ROM... My device become laggy, unresponsive after install few apps (WhatsApp, Swype and others)...

Now I'm on older GB(Saurom), and at least I can use my phone....

I can't understand this enthusiasm about KK... very respect to devs to give it for free for us! I think I9000 are tired hehe..

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tetakpatak:
Normally, CM10.2 is about double as fast as GB and KK is even better. Phone freezing is past time with those OSs.

It would have been worth spending bit of time to check the settings, outdated files, as well as to update your apps to the versions optimized for the newest Android generations.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Ommadawn101:
I use clean master regularly.

Saying that whatsapp is already a high performance task is funny, because I was using it since froyo, and I never felt such heavy lags with my device with earlier roms

That app is probably in all terms different today (except for its name), look at its permissions- it's endless list.

I don't use that app at all, I just read frequently in another threads that it is capable of causing lags even with modern quad-core phones. It was just a hint, I was not necessarily searching for the solution in right direction.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] crofalcon:
I used to have huge lag spikes with Whatsapp so I stopped using it. I used to have even bigger problems with Viber messing up many many things on my phone, but I have to admit that they are gone now with the new updates.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] saszseb:
Agreed. GB has better UI speed than JB.

In the today's nightly, I lost in random times, my internet mobile connection. Did you have this behavior?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] allandacruz:
Of course man! JB - KK are more featured than GB but it have a cost, slow motion most part of time hehe. Saurom has a lot of features, mods, and customization to give a better experience than stock GB. GB is lighter, faster, battery friendly, better, but older...

I'd like to go back with my opinion about KK ROMs. Buddies you were right! KK is really better than GB. I've been using SlimKat for a few days and I must agree, it's faster, better ram handling, battery is equal to GB, and of course full featured!

But, I think slim, with minimal gapps can give a better experience than cm with full gapps.

So, sorry to annoying you. One more time, you were right!

Dear mate, it is so nice to know your phone works finally well now!

Good luck with your new ROM

I just have one last technical question: could it be, that your bootloader was totally outdated? Like still on Eclair or Froyo bootloader?

Technically, this explaination makes almost no sense. Yet, it makes a big difference.

I was using long time Froyo bootlader without even to know. CM10 until CM10.2 worked good, though- but CM11 was at first very laggy and I didn't understand why.

Since pawitp and ts1506 accidentally mentioned the bootloader question in this thread, I've flashed GB bootloader on my i9000 (extracted from JVU) and- boom! My i9000 has a new soul now, fast like never before.
