I've noticed this even though I'm still on CM 10.1. I don't believe it's really a bug, more like a buggy feature:rolleyes:. It's because of a setting that launches default music player as soon as headphones are plugged in. This causes the phone sometimes to not wake up with menu button. Sometimes it works fine. I just think because music player is getting launched in the background the phone can't always respond to the wake up with menu button.

i prefer to type this command :

( try again later ) :D
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] ktulu84:
I asked you because if you get the error only after the second swapon is because swap is already mounted by the first one, the command i told you simply tells you if swap is mounted.

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] ktulu84:
OK, you have 64MB swap, this should be zram active by default. I suggest you to use zram because is way faster than swap on SD, you can increase the value if you want, or if you prefer swap on SD instead of zram write me a PM

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] ktulu84:
If you don't want to use swap on SD delete the file you created on external sd

Inviato dal mio GT-I9001 utilizzando Tapatalk
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] shalawla5:
i want to understand one thing now ... is the swap working or not ?

if yes .. do you think i should increase the count ?

if not .. so i think i will delete it
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] ktulu84:
Let me explain you.. Now you are not using swap on SD, you are using swap in ram, is called zram. If you want you can increase it a bit, but is not necessary. If you want to use swap on SD instead of zram you have to do something else

Edit: if you see something different from "0" on the row "swap" when you type free in terminal this means that swap is working

Inviato dal mio GT-I9001 utilizzando Tapatalk
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] shalawla5:
im really confused now:confused: ... it looks complicated for me

i guess im going to delete the swap file as u said

thanks alot man ... i appreciate it
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] ktulu84:
I know that swap in ram can be confusing.. Swap is used to increase space in ram :D. But zram increase space in ram because it is a compressed swap :D this is faster than swap on SD because ram is hundreds time faster than sd, even if you have to compress and decompress data

Bluetooth failing to disconnect

I'm having some problems with bluetooth on this ROM. I have the phone paired with a car kit for my commute. The phone connects automatically without issue. However, when I stop the car and the car kit turns off, the phone doesn't always disconnect. Sometimes it still seems to think it's connected, and drains battery horribly as a result. I have to disable bluetooth to get it to disconnect.

I also have the Llama app installed and configured to change audio settings etc. when bluetooth connects/disconnects, and this doesn't work properly when the disconnect doesn't happen. Even when I explicitly turn bluetooth off, Llama never gets a bluetooth disconnect trigger.

This all worked fine on arco's CM10 ROM.

Is anyone else having problems like this?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] iSplassh:
Your first issue is not a bug. You have to munt / and system to RW, after that you can delete everything.

I love this ROM!!! It brings greatness to my phone!

but, maybe some have spoken, it has battery issue. My phone battery is losing at 1%/10minutes level!! And sometimes (or maybe often) my phone just snap!! it reboots itself and at boot animation, boom, battery low level warning comes up and it shuts down! I have to recharge again even if the battery was full before it snapped. Anybody has the same issue? Please.... I just love this ROM so much and don't want change my ROM..

ps. I haven't tried to change my battery yet. But I have bought it and am waiting for it to come.

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Paul_Kolanjian:
Redundant Battery Issue on CM

Guys, let's not spam the development thread, the i8150 has only a 1500 mAH battery, so don't expect 2 days of battery with heavy usage. Just sayin', the ROM is perfect, and as someone previously stated, it feels like a Nexus 5 :p well.. to a certain point but definitely smooth on my side. I get 3 days of normal usage (3 hours of on-screen distributed between chatting, internet-browsing, voice calls...) and still have 47% using a 1500mAH battery, so the battery issue is independent of ROM, rather according to your custom usage. I don't play games for instance, but the processor is clocked to 1.4 GHz with conservative governor on top, maybe freezing unnecessary apps or blocking wakelocks could solve this issue. Additionally, there is a 2500 or 2800 mAH battery being sold at a website which I don't remember, and several users previously posted heavy usage battery stats with a 4-day duration while still having 27% (simply everything one could dream of), so I'd consider that as an alternative option. Peace to all you i8150 users out there :)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] miesze:
Let me just explain once again:

I had 2 days of battery easy, with the last version I used (20140122).

now I have 1 day at the most, with the new release. although performance is great!

same usage, because I'm the same user.

same apps (no games), same default configuration, BUT this could be the problem, maybe the default configuration changed. I don't know.

other from that, I'm happy that you get 3 days or more, but that doesn't change the fact the battery is clearly worse, for me and other users.

you're right about the spam, lets stop. although I have to say I don't really get the spammingfobia if we're making remarks about the ROM for potential users to make an informed decision. cheers.

anyone with battery issues, should at least state the brand, type n age of their batteries.

ie.:

brand - original samsung or other china-made.

type - lithium-ion or lithium-polymer.

age - one month old, six months old, one year old or older than one year.

this is becoz older than one year, u should at least standby to change a new battery.

instead of telling all about your issues n no one know tat u r using new or old batteries. :confused:

pls remember the batteries will not be the same as yesterday, will deteriorate every day.

life span for original samsung ion battery is about one year plus.

not sure of cheap china-made polymer batteries life span, QC is poor.

symptom when to replace battery:

1) sudden drop in power.

2) cant hold charged power.

3) bloated battery.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] ktulu84:
Yep, you are right.. But I think also that users complaining about battery issues should read the last 20 posts and say "well, battery issue has already been reported" instead of "wiiiiii I'm not the only one! I have to let all the world know that I have the same issue, I'm sure it will do the difference"

Edit: I'm going to explain the reason of this post.. Let's say I have found a bug, I search on the thread and this has not been reported, I report this bug and then users start to spam the thread with battery issues, someone will reply "change our battery" "try another charger" and so on (all these suggestions are useful, but users with battery issues have to try it BEFORE reporting because this is common sense) BTW arco come here to read if there are new issues and he find a lot of pages full of battery issues, there are some possibilities that he will miss my never reported issue.

I found the problem with the battery (my problem, at least):

Deep Sleep Battery Saver does not turn off data connection when screen turns off. Now I turn data connection off manually and battery lasts 2 days again.

So you get irritated by common users behaving like human beings and not like bureaucrat robots that magically fit your fine code for life? You should relax before you have a public breakdown.

I'm not so sure everyone's issue is the same, I only found one guy stating almost the same problem as me, but I admit I didn't read the entire xda-developers forum. And precisely because I found this guy's post I was sure the problem wasn't in my particular installation. Do you know how the "heat" of a problem is used to evaluate the urgency of that problem? You should.

There's someone reporting the same issue in DeepSleepBS thread, also with CM11, lets hope the developer sees that single bug report and fixes it, I wouldn't want to spam the thread there.

i know how to solve this problem coz it happen to me.. using Link2SD.. swipe the left screen then you clear dalvick and clear cache after that you reboot using Link2SD..

Hello, Sir [MENTION=3044346]arco68[/MENTION]. We here really appreciate your hard work, since you maintaining our device from CM9. As people said to you, you are the father of the Galaxy W. I know you try your best to rid off all the bugs and problems including the low fps on video recording.

So, I came across over Github and found this commit, at least this should give you an idea to get back better frame rates as the stock does. :) and we always waiting for your update.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] hack4er:
İ couldnt see any issue on video recording, so in my opinion our cm11 camera is bugless :victory: and also currently fps number is 30 while recording video and 30 fps is enough for video recording i think
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] sir mordred:
There are no issue in video recording for me. And also that commit is useless for us because our phone is wonder not xperia and we are using different camera sensor,camera hal ,camera driver in kernel
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] onur5544:
I think the 720p video recording frame rate issue is talking about. 480p recording is excellent, but 720p video recording, frame rate insufficient to. Sincerely.

Sorry for my bad english

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] sir mordred:
720p video recording is working fine

Fps is 30 and its enough

But if you move quickly the phone during recording video, You will see some lags but its not bug i think

Because our camera sensor has not good feature like image stabilizer or something like that
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] poji94:
I know, that's why I said in the earlier post, at least it just give an idea to walkaround the problem. It doesn't mean we can take that commit and patch it. Maybe sir Arco can inspire something from it.

I just recorded a video, and transfer it to my laptop.

This fps from recorded video which I'm using H.264 codec

And this one I recorded using MPEG-4 codec

Yeah, I'm talking about 720p video recording, 480p runs really smooth though :)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] onur5544:
The frame rate video at 30 fps writing exif data, but it is also certain that filmed the video. Max 20 fps, giving the phone moves this value falls further. With the stock firmware that can take 720p video at 30 fps full're talking about a phone, hardware, enough for 30 fps. I think the camera is supposed to optimization. Sincerely.

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] sir mordred:
heyy do not compare stock firmware with cm rom. cm is port rom and stock is original rom made by samsung so cm has different camerahal and different camera subsystem in kernel so everythings is different in cm roms

ı say again 720p recording video is working fine for me

and also why you want 30 fps? even 25 fps is enough because human eyes cant detect different in 25+ fps values

camera is bugless in this rom at the moment so all of us must appreciate our master sir arne
