Can anybody tell me wether the latest release are able to copy files to external sdcard? that's to say, can the sdcard be mounted as read and write? I've tried CM10.1 CM10.2 and old CM11 version, I found both CM10.1 and 10.2 can't copy files to externel sdcard, but cm10.2 can. I dont know wether this is a bug, it's really unconvenient with this problem, is there a solution?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Hetalk:
In every CM build, I always was able to copy files to my external card. I'm not sure why it won't work for you.:confused:

I have an issue with music playing. After some time music player says 'sorry the player does not support this type of audio file'. All music players show this problem

Apollo, Music, rocket player, playerpro etc.

How to fix this problem?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] tigerbenzin:
maybe some of your files have an unrecognised format?

If so, the fix would be to convert them.

Congratulations dhiru and team for this great news about your rom work !!

Hey guys, I have something weird, I set the phone in 2G mode and the phone changes by him self to 3G, this is kinda weird uh???, also if you look at the bar menu it say 2G but in the settings is set in 3G mode.

One more thing, can you run Antutu?, I can run it but is like dont pass 1%, is not hanged but dont pass 1%.. also very weird.

(sorry my english)

Thanks! I tried to update from DDLF2, It works, no sdcard problems! rootexplorer still requires root permissions before copy things

---------- Post added at 08:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:00 AM ----------

Following [MENTION=4278473]Hetalk[/MENTION] and [MENTION=4897096]maksimus0021[/MENTION] 's suggestions, I flashed CM11 from DDLF2, No sdcard problems, great appreciate for them! I found a new problem: I connect my phone with PC and turn on usb storage, when I copy files from PC to external sdcard, it can finish.but when I turn off usb storage and find the file in the phone trying to open it , It always says the file is damaged. the problem exists with .apk and .zip files(I didn't try other kinds) But it's OK if I copy files to internal sacard. I also find this problem in CM10.1 and CM10.2
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] ALoGeNo:
Fixed, I was deleted the data of Antutu app and now works perfect.

Hey [MENTION=4897096]maksimus0021[/MENTION] thanks for your quick reply, can you please tell me how you have configured the CPU stuff in performance settings¿? I'm using ONDEMAND and CFQ but antutu dont wanna run properly, do you have the sdcard swapped or zram deactivated or somthing like that?.

Thanks beforehand and in anyway :)

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] jitendragarg:
So, after spending few hours understanding the log of better battery stats, I am dumbfounded. Apparently, there is nothing wrong in the logs. Still looking for suggestions on that.

Also, another issue popped up yesterday. Play store, and almost every app is having problem accessing internet. Browser works fine, so does widgets. I have tried deleting cache and data of every app and play store, but no luck yet. No idea what happened all of a sudden, as everything was working fine previously. :confused:

I find this issue of automatically switching to (2G+3G) even when 2G only is selected after reboot as a deal breaker.

Becaue after reboot if we forget to switch back to 2G only battery drains very fast. Hope you will fix it in the next release.

Thanks a lot.:angel:

Hi guys i'm waiting to buy a new phone before tryng this rom...

But for some issues like battery drain an sod's/reboots i found that on the stock ddlf2 this problems was related to battery calibration and the use of nofrills so maybe you can test it on your own on cm11 and see if resolves the issues (just recalibrate battery and don't let nofrils set the values ;) )

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] loSconosciuto:
I would have posted it already.

I actually never tried to fix this problem. I simply noticed that the mode doesn't stick after a reboot, read the code to know what was wrong, found the problem and once I read the comment I linked in my other post, I didn't do anything else. 2G was too slow for me to have it as default option, so I didn't want to waste my time [1] trying to fix something that probably would have never worked too well that I wold have never used.

You could try to re-enable the restore of the saved mode, but that requires a recompilation of the framework part I linked in my other post (and writing the missing part of the code). Don't count on me for that.

[1] Every minimal change on that part of code requires the recreation of the dalvik-cache upon reboot. Since it was my daily driver, I had few apps installed, so yeah, that would have been quite annoying.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] cukierkas:
Clearing dalvic cache is not that big deal. Doing it once in two weeks, it makes phone a little bit faster. Maybe a placebo, but in opinion, it works.

Trimming, as introduced by losco works as well, thanks.

Hi dirhu,

First of all, tons of thanks for your great work man!

And, a question: could it be possible to have on boot the dmesg on real time as Linux on a PC does?

I think it requires some special features to be enabled on kernel's compilation, that's why I ask you.

---------- Post added at 05:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:44 PM ----------

Hi all,

Is there any way to remove the 3-dot overflow icon? As far as I googled it shouldn't be there as our phone does have a HW menu button but it shows up....

And another one: is any way to completely disable *all* animations? I set all three to off but there are still some remains .

WIFI hotspot is working fine :victory:
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] loSconosciuto:
I've always had this problem with the 3.0 kernel and my SD card. Apparently I'm not the only one... I tried to find the problem, but nothing worked. I found that transferring files while in recovery (at least with adb) works usually. Anyway, I tried that SD card on a Galaxy S2 and had the same problem, but I'm not sure I formatted it before trying. So maybe it's a general bug of new kernel releases. I didn't try much since I wasn't using the SD card and I was the only one to have this problem.

If I remember correctly my SD card was a SA02G, but I'm not sure since I don't have it near by. I'd like to know if you have the same SD card. You can get the name from terminal emulator:

cat /sys/class/block/mmcblk1/device/name

Or reboot the device and see the name from the dmesg with:

su
dmesg | grep mmc

Try it on another phone and see if the same happens.

You are right, you have to re-compile the kernel to have it. It's the framebuffer console (CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE). The bootanimation will override it as soon as it starts though.

An alternative solution would be using "live logcat" by Chainfire, which is a bootanimation.

Google decided that it must be always visible, no matter what.

WiFi Tethering Works!!!

Hi everyone:

First of all, I want to say thank you to Dhiru. Thank you very much to keep our device alive.

I have tested Wifi Tethering and -in my case- it works well.

I have been able to setup the hotspot, connect from my pc and browse the internet. I have only tested it for 5 minutes, so I don't know if it's stable for long periods:o, but I can certify that it works

Thanks and best regards

Thanks for both answers IoSconosciuto.

[MENTION=303789]dir[/MENTION]hu: for the dmesg, have you included framebuffet console when compiling the kernel?

What else should be done? I guess disabling bootanim from built.prop and passing some kernel params just to start, any pointers?

For the 3-dots, is there gonna be any use of them not covered by the HW button? If not, I would like to disable it anyway.

Thank you very much for your detailed reply!! Finally there is someone who focus on this problem! I did as you told just now, my SDcard is a SA04G. It's a Kingston 4GB Class4. I don't know whether It's the same with yours. It works fine on stock rom ZCKPL 2.3.6 ..

" Try it on another phone" you mean I try it on another phone with CM with the 3.0 kernel? But there isn't such a phone around me.....

I guess the problem lies in the external sdcard permissions. It's mounted as read only and I can't mount it as read and write with RootExplorer. Is it possible to be fixed?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] ALoGeNo:
Same issues here, at the point that I was lost the partition table and recovered with testdisk, I was thinked that my card was danmaged, but looks like I have the same problem as you my card is a kingstone 16GB class4.

One more thing, I was detected that after recover the data with testdisk all the folders are with shared permisions ( that never happend before ), so when I delete my backup sd card content I have all the time the msg "this folder is shared with another people, do you wanna delete it?" something like that but in spanish :) have someone this same issue?.

Also ask about google ears, can someone run this widget?, I cant.

It is a launcher3 issue, I'm using Nova, and google sound search works fine!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] alejandro.pastrana:
How about Nova? do you recommend it over launcher3 on this ROM? is there any downside using nova?

I had some minor issues with launcher3 but I don't know if Nova will decrease performance. Which launcher is faster?

Regards
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] catarifrangente:
I have only good feelings with Nova, no bad issues at all.

The launcher is pretty fast, btw I do not use Google Now, so I don't know about differences in this between the 1st one and Nova.

It is very customizable in colors and animations and it is already KitKat themed (it even supports the transparent status bar if you activate it from build.prop)

I've difinitely chosen Nova as my launcher.

What kind of issues do you have with Launcher3? If you tell me I can be more precise.

Cheers
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] alejandro.pastrana:
Thank you very much for your quick reply.

I have had some random crashes with launcher3, specially when using apps that demand heavy RAM use (mostly games). Also I am not able to use all the screen for widgets (I cannot expand them to top row). Sometimes I loose some icons or backgroud...

I have read somewhere that nova is lighter and better for low RAM devices like ours.

I think I am going to test nova

Regards
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] zappacor:
I do experience launcher3 crashes a lot too, may be I'll try nova too.

However, regarding not been able to fully expand widgets, try disabling the search from settings

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] loSconosciuto:
With "another phone" I mean just another phone. I tried it on a Galaxy S2 with a stock ROM and had the same issue.

It's not a problem of permissions, I think the problem is at a lower level.

Anyway, I had access to my SD card and got more informations about it. It's a brand-less 2GB SD card, but the controller is made by Toshiba and there are chances it's the same for you. Here what I got (MMC device attributes)

cid: 02544d5341303247049c10003800a59e
csd: 002e00325b5aa3a9ffffff800a80003a
scr: 0225800001000000
date: 05/2010
erase_size: 512
preferred_erase_size: 4194304
fwrev: 0x4
hwrev: 0x0
manfid: 0x000002
name: SA02G
oemid: 0x544d
serial: 0x9c100038

You can get all these informations replacing "name" in the command I posted in my previous post with cid or csd etc...

manfid and oemid identify who's the manufacturer. In my case it's Toshiba.

If you get something similar (some of those values are unique, for example cid, so don't expect to get the same), we have the same SD.

As I said, I don't know what's the problem and I wasn't able to fix it. I tried to pick commits from newer kernel releases and revert others, but nothing worked. When I found that there was the same problem with another phone, I gave up. I wasn't even using it, the internal storage was enough for me.

And we are three. Another Kingston, interesting.

If you badly need an SD card, the only suggestion I have is to use a stock ROM, a CM build with the old 2.6.35 kernel or change SD card.

Not what you wanted to hear, but I have no other solutions.

Two issues faced on latest build:

1.Got some issue with the music playback. When I try to play songs using Apollo or player pro music app it gets stuck, stops responding & don't play any music. I force stopped the music apps & kept the phone idle for sometime. When I checked the battery after sometime, media server was consuming the battery.

Is anybody facing this issue with music playback..pls test & reply.

Media server stopped consuming battery when I restarted the phone manually.

2. When I switch off the WiFi it still shows in the battery status that it's been switched on all the time..check this also pls.

Hello

My Internal Memory is damaged and removed from my phone so in any ROM I flash I must flash SwapSD in order to work

How To SwapSD in this ROM Please ??
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] tejadakenneth:
how?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] jitendragarg:
First off, thanks Dhiru for great update. Battery usage for mobile radio is great now. :highfive:

As always, I tested the rom for last 2 days. Here are few notes:

1) Play store and apps are not able to find the wifi connection. I will try to delete wifi settings to see if that solves it.

2) There is a wakelock which stops phone from going to sleep. "Suspend_backoff" is the name, but there is no other information. Not sure, what it is, but it happens after a couple hours of deep sleep. Phone woke up from deep sleep (no external event like calls, or reminders) and stayed as such for 7 straight hours.

3) This is a big issue, so keeping it on bold. (Apparently) Phone doesn't cut off charging after getting charged to 100%. Normally, I forget to unplug charger, and whenever I unplug it, phone has 90% or so battery. This time, phone was on 100% exact every time I unplugged it.

So, I need some suggestion about the charging issue. How do I make sure that phone is cutting off charge after 100%? I don't want to fry my phone by mistake.

---------- Post added at 02:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:05 PM ----------

Open file commander. Go to /system. There is a file called build.prop. Open it, scroll to the end. In the 4-5 line from the end, there is "ro_low_ram=true" or similar. Just change it to false, and save the file. Reboot and enjoy. Also, note that you have to do this after flashing the update, every time.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] tejadakenneth:
i found a ro.config.low_raw=true is it similar??

p.s okay i can't open my phone. after the samsung logo doesn't load. only the backlight HELP!!!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] cakdavid:
Me too, after edit build.prop then reboot I got only backlight. so you have to reflash this CM11. pull out battery and put it again. go to recovery mode by pressing volume up+power+home button. then flash CM11 again. good luck.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] jitendragarg:
yes, that is the one. ro.config.low_ram. Also, are you sure, you didn't make any spelling mistake? I did once and that caused the bootloop.

Anyway, to solve it is simple. Just flash the same zip file again. No need for factory reset, or anything at all. Simply boot into recovery, select the zip file and install again. It will save your settings as is, and will update the system files. Make sure to use the same build as the one you have.

After that, change the low_ram value again, but make sure to not make any other changes.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] alejandro.pastrana:
Hi everybody:

Can anybody tell the differences of using lowram settings or not? Apart from transparent status bar, are there more differences? Also, does anybody know the free RAM impact of using transparent status bar?

Thanks in advance
