Hmm, I'll second that here... Signal drops too.

Not sure why but the recent nightlies I too have signal issues and I have never flashed any other modem at all for a year (XXMS4). I'm getting occasional and sometimes sporadic signal drops 4 - 5 times a day. :eek: I temporarily flashed my country's modem (Singapore, DXLP9) and so far I've been using the phone constantly for about a week and seems fine. Probably just a one off thing...

Anyway I'm seeing a lot of telephony fixes according to the changelog... So to those who are having similar issues maybe these fixes might help:

https://review.carbonrom.org/#/q/status:merged,n,z

Can't wait for the next release. :good:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dudders007:
I used a diff SIM n i stil hav the same prob...

However, i wiped the ROM n flashed it again n this significantly reduced the problem by a lot..

Its stil there though.. Wil Check out in a stock based ROM too this time..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] gianni84r:
hi, when I active art I have a little problem: do not update whatsapp, facebook opens after 5 min
[Galaxy S II Android Development] iobling:
Lately I've also experienced signal loss, it seemed to happen randomly. Also I've noticed a few ui restarts.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dudders007:
At least i ain the only one with the prob.. Went back to a 4.1.2 stock based ROM.. Alls fine ther...

Hope this signal bug in this wil be fixed in the next release.. :fingers-crossed:

By the way I do not have any signal issues [emoji1]

various questions

Hi,

I've tried many kk rom but I found this the more stable and complete.

I have some issue and questions:

- I have a lot of AD, I enabled the AD blocker but it show an error when updating host file, is there a way to fix?

- I cant set my ringtones and notification sound

- Someone has tried the ART? Is there some advantages/issues?

Many thanks!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Catscratch:
It's working for me without problems. What exactly do you try?

I'm using ART only for a long time now. I would say the performance is a little bit better. Bot not so much that you immediatly have to switch to ART. But since Dalvik is deprecated, you should probably go for it.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] avvocato.rossi:
It was impossible to set the ring tone, it just needed a reboot.....

About ads I still have the msg "error while updating host file"......

Is there a way to have a toggle for drive mode?

It's very useful....
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dudders007:
Yup It seems to be fixed! :) Have not lost signal from a day now! :good:

However my play store stil vanishes on updating!! :confused:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dudders007:
Ok i guess i am wrong.. I thot i had the signal.. Wasn gettin Mobile data.. It seems to have gotten worse.

So checked the network.. It was registered to some random provider and not my own.

e1 If i manually select my own provider, it doesnt let me call or text or e1 use mobile data.

It keeps switching to other networks and keeps saying 'no internet connection' at the bottom of the notification drawer. :crying:

I tried 3 different sim cards..! Shoud i try with a different modem??? Can som1 provide me a link?

I am trying to download the 18.09.14 nightly. I am able to bring up the Carbon website and follow the link for the I9100 without any problems, but I am unable to download as the download link does not load before timing out. Is there any other way that I can access the download please.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Phenomzye:
Or you could try OTA, it worked for me
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Drhedphuk:
Not currently on Carbon Rom though. Thanks for your suggestion though, it's appreciated.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Phenomzye:
Oh, then you could try downloading a previous build and OTAing from there.

Hi, I am also from NCR region, I tried 20/02 nightly, on which I was facing problem. I also posted earlier asking if facebook sync is working for anyone. Anyway, if all is working fine then I'll give another try to this ROM tomorrow with latest nightly.

BTW which modem are you using, I am on XXMS4 and it works pretty well for me on all ROMs, so I don't think modem could be the cause of connectivity issue.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Rebelpriest:
Hey Buddy, check the Screenshot.

Request

Hey buddy,

Can we expect the RAM Bar in coming builds which seems to be missing from KK builds ?

-edit-

I noticed the Deep Sleep is good for ROM but I have noticed when you keep using the ROM is Battery drainage is HIGH.

Am I the only getting affected ?

I have used 3 Kernels (Stock, Apollo & Dori).

Deep Sleep best works with Dori

Any Tips for this.

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Android Development] himsin:
+1 to ram bar.

I always face high bettry drain when screen is on, on almost every ROM. But I think its ok, I do not expect much from a 2 year old battery.

---------- Post added at 10:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:24 AM ----------

Does this ROM has backup tool, do I have to flash gapps everytime when I update ROM??
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Rebelpriest:
Hey buddy,

Im still running on stock battery Piece, I feel Like I shud buy a new one or I shud buy covers with extra battery thing.

Have you come across something like dat ?

Well With Dirty Flash , No need to update Gapps, Flash Nightly , Do Cache & Dalvik wipe (suggested).

Enjoy updated ROM. :good:

Hello!

Why QuickBoot disappeared from developer's menu? I just love it and now it was removed?

I made a clean install and nothing.

I don't have that issue. There could be several reasons. I think the best way to check is to provide us with a logcat (use Logcat Extreme from Play Store if you don't know how to get the logcat).

Have you changed your LCD density? That same thing happened to me and I solved it changing the density to lower values.

I am also having a strange issue with the front facing camera, it's totally random but lately it happens more often. Sometimes when I open the camera, the preview is at 30FPS (front camera) and video recording is also 30FPS. Then another random day or after a reboot, under the same light conditions the preview is at like 10fps (really really laggy, not smooth at all, looks like old 1MP cameras) and video recording as well, laggy as hell. No CPU changes, camera surface wiped, latest nightly.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] johny.mnemonic:
What custom kernels you are using guys? Please also post your kernel/performance configuration.

I am still on default one, but hearing some of the reports I am tempted to try other kernels.

The main motivation to try other kernel is, that I feel this ROM has huge battery drain whenever screen is on, even when reading books or other low demand things when CPU should be almost idle...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Drhedphuk:
Hi, to start with the battery drain I would install with a ultra deep clean the next time that you update or change Rom. If you can't be bothered to do it yourself I highly recommend using Hawkerpauls wipe scripts (Link below)

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s2/development-derivatives/cwm-util-wipe-scripts-s2-gt-i9100-t2100558

To answer your question about the kernel I am currently using Dorimanx V10 004

stock kernel, stock ROM, no scripts or anything.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Myself5:
As you may see on your own musicXmatch used all the battery and kept the phone cpu active all the time. Try with a diferrnt player like Google Play Music.

Good luck bro you've been a nice and helpful user. My friend has a Moto G 2G and I think you made everything right buying it. It's a awesome phone for this price.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Phenomzye:
I am sorry mate but I have been using musiX on the same ROM before the latest nightlies, even before using the ROM itself and it had never been an issue, usually it would consume 20-30% on that amount of time but never that much that shows in the screenshot.. Again there's no reason why an app used by millions of people would be the problem, just saying :/ Patiently waiting the latest nightly to see if I don't experience the issue, thanks anyway!

Hii :)

I've got a question about battery life on Carbon Rom.

I bought a new original Samsung battery last week and installed Carbon Rom.

The problem is my phone lasts only for max. 8hours with 2.5hours screen time, which i think is a not enough.

Any solutions for this?

Here are some screenshots

Install BBS app and see whats draining ur Battery :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KUN1:
Already installed it but i didn't found any special app that drains my battery :/
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Karpfenhai:
Do this, unplug your charger before going to bed, after sleeping turn on phone, grab a bbs dump immediately, post it within the bbs thread.

Try Apolo 7.1 kernel.

Regards
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sreinst1:
The battery life depends on the usage. 8 hours with 2.5 hours screen time for the i9100 is very good. If you feel that the battery drains too much when the screen is not on, use BetterBatteryStats to try and find out why, they have a forum in xda-developers where you can post the results.

It also depends on your battery - how old it is.

And as a reference you can always revert back to a stock ROM and check the battery life there.

BTW my usual battery life is about 14 hours with about 1 hour screen time.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KUN1:
hmm no i don't think the battery drains too much when the screen is on

And as said the battery is one week old ^^

but if you say it's normal for the i9100 i have to deal with it
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Karpfenhai:
Nope it's not, a kernel can do wonders on our phone...

This can be considered as heavy usage pattern:

Losing about 20 % /hour while screen is on is a good result.

If get around 4 hours screen total on a normal workday, means around 16 hours in total.

I don't wanna start a battery fight, I just wanna say with the right setup, much more is possible.

Regards
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ahmedelhofy:
How do you guys manage to get these results, am on dorimanx and using supposedly some battery friendly profile still can't pass 3 hours or at most 3 and a half
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sreinst1:
You showed quite impressive battery life... Are there are any caveats to using Apolo 7.1 kernel (compared to the ROM's built-in kernel)? e.g. camera, playing movies, internet browsing? Thanks.

Also, which version of the kernel do you have? The Apolo 7.1 files are here, and I don't know which one to choose: https://www.wuala.com/pedestre/Kern...4.x kitkat)/Base CyanogenMod?key=IZz8nJ7ajpFQ
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KUN1:
I recognized that my proximity sensor is always on and sometimes unlocks my device for itself.

Could this be the reason?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sreinst1:
Which version of the ROM are you using? In Sep 26, I fixed a bug where the "Wake on notification" option (I don't remember where it is) used to keep the proximity sensor on all the time.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KUN1:
I use the version from the 19 Oct....

Should i update to the latest one with apolo kernel?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sreinst1:
No... If you have pocket mode enabled, the proximity sensor will also always be on.

Hello

Would you be so nice to tell me how did you durably install BBS on 4.4.4 carbonrom ?

how did you guarantee root access for BBS on 4.4.4 Crom?

After each reboot, BBS looses it's root access even if I installed it as system app?

Best regards
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Yakap:
Dis rom is good?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Karpfenhai:
Just put the plain apk to /system/priv-app, set permissions to 644, owner and group to root, reboot done, uninstall previous version first.

To make it persist, have a look into your scripts within /system/add-ons.d

You will easily understand how to handle it, regards.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Myself5:
You propably should not ask this in the Rom's thread as the most will tell you it is, else they would not use it I guess :P

Also, there is no such thing as best rom, everybody has his own needs and uses the rom different. I'd just suggest you to give us a try :P

P.S. As I'm the i9100 maintainer I of cause love this rom more than all others. But I may not be really impartial here :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KUN1:
So i did a clean install with the Version from the 26. Oct with Apolo Kernel V1

These are the results:

Still just 2hours screen time :/
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KUN1:
This is the result after a night unplugged for me this seems pretty good.

But this means that th battery drains extremly when the screen is on but i don't know why :/
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KUN1:
Is maybe the display itself "corrupted"?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Karpfenhai:
Or it's simply to bright? We are cluttering the thread, it's not a Rom issue, try to lower your brightness Apolo can adjust auto steps easily.

Use the dark switch.
