Nope, without it should have no impact, what does logcat say while attempting to record?

Galaxy S2 running this rom or other CM11 build, there is an annoying bug after normal reboot while charging not plugged : battery level down from ~49% to ~20%.

Ok, maybe you know this issue.

Here a little trick to avoid this bug :

[Galaxy S II Android Development] AlkaDragos:
Personally i didn't encounter this bug, only after a SOD or hard restart. Anyway, CM now has option for Soft Reboot also :p
[Galaxy S II Android Development] eminem_b:
This bug is unavoidable. Still, when it happens, I turn off my WiFi and 3G modules and leave the device for ~30 minutes in peace. It gets back to normal slowly. The percentage of the battery gets increased little by little. Also, this has nothing to do with Android versions or anything, it's just a hardware bug.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Zile995:
I had that bug even on stock samsung rom.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] la_malacoda:
Me too mate, AFAIK is fuel gauge chip error, nothing to do with software or rom..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] souler456:
Yep. It's our S2's dainty old bug. When you Reboot (Normally), our Fuel Gauge sometimes goes crazy and causes the Battery Levels to go low... :(

But, like [MENTION=4794222]philippe734[/MENTION] said, If you want to do a Reboot, but you want to avoid the FG Chip bug, better do a Soft Reboot. :good:

But, once again, if you want to do a Soft Reboot but don't want to install apps that will clutter the phone even more, here's an easy way. Very easy way.

pkill zygote

It will restart the whole Android System, except the Kernel and Init (what a Soft Reboot does). Type that on Terminal Emulator (don't forget to give Root Access), then.. Voila! Soft Reboot-o! :p

:D :) ;) :good:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Dragoon Aethis:
Or just enable Advanced Reboot in Developer Settings and have it conveniently placed in your Reboot menu. c:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] eminem_b:
This is not a S2 bug, it's pretty common among other devices. The thing in which I'm not sure is if it's resolved in any newer hardware.

BrickBug and TRIM

Hi all,

I was wondering, as I did not find anything in the history of our thread:

1. Does this ROM is the OFFICIAL CM build for the i9100 ?

2. Does this ROM supports TRIM action at all ?

What I mean is, after i saw lachon's KERNEL's thread, I wonder if I should install it at all - but i'm afraid of being effected by the *brickbug*.

Does someone has experience with that kernel on his i9100 16GB model ?

Hope you can advise,

Thanks...:cowboy:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Karpfenhai:
1. No, afaik there is no official build.

2. I wouldn't recommend to use trim, it causes more harm than good.

Regards
[Galaxy S II Android Development] daniu:
Hi

There is an official build - at least I would call the one you can download at the official cm webpage "official"

This builds here use the same source though ... just the compiler is optiimized in some way.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Karpfenhai:
You're right, my bad, sorry.

By any chance, does someone familiar with one of the latest change started in August:

call recording

? :D

I have installed xposed and RecEnabler, enabled the module, then restarted -> I don't see any change.... :crying:

Do you have any idea why and how to solve it ? :confused:

I'm looking for a 2-way call recording - don't have to be that way... :o

P.S

it is *legal* in my country ( as well in the majority of the world's country) to do so, as long i'm part of the conversation.

Please DO NOT turn my question about the legality of the action: THIS IS NOT the thread for that.

I'm looking for someone help to technically enable this option, NOT someone to be a "big brother-hugger". ;)

[Galaxy S II Android Development] ItsHumf:
Excuse the noob question... But will this ROM work with i9100P?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Markox89:
This is not THE official build, official builds are available here. Though, these builds are compiled from the same sources :)

I've to agree with Spaulding89, the best idea is to look for a Xposed Module that can enable it :)

It should work good, except for the NFC part :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Karpfenhai:
Hmm, call me stupid but what about simply enabling it in the phone apk?

[Galaxy S II Android Development] teraßyte:
Thanks for the update!

Now.. this is the first time I actually update a custom ROM so let me see if I got it right:

I download the new zip file and upload it to my external sdcard

I reboot into recovery mode

I flash the new zip from external sd

I flash again gapps package

I clear the cache

Reboot and I'm done

Is that correct? Or do I need to clear the dalvik cache too before rebooting?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] blinoff82:
Not necessarily, it is possible upload zip to internal memory card. When you update rom, you no need to reinstall gapps.

If you do not have errors and problems with applications, then wipe cashe/dalvik cashe do not need.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] gps3dx:
Thanks for the reply,

I have just reflashed from scratch the latest ROM build 06.09.2014+gapps from 04.06.2014.

Rebooted then installed xposed& the framework, installed RecEnabler & enabled it, rebooted.

Then, when I open the phone.apk and enter its settings, I don't see any "allow to record" line at all !

I make a call, and I do not see any record button...

Just try it, you'll feel the difference :)

In addition, going to these builds to official ones and vice versa doesn't require a full wipe, so it's totally worth the try :D

You'll have to make a boring search looking at CM GitHub or CM Gerrit :\

Probably they feel like it wasn't needed anymore, nothing to worry about :)

How can i install this Rom on a samsung jb rom?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Karpfenhai:
Omg, why don't you just read the op..

...Download the Rom to your sd card...

...grab a custom kernel as .tar file, flash via Odin (considering you're on full stock fw at the moment) as pda.

Reboot to recovery, flash Rom, factory reset it, reboot, done.

Regards
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Trainer_H:
which kernel do you recommend, where i can found the .tar for odin?

Use this but only for gathering a recovery!

https://www.wuala.com/pedestre/Kern...N (just CWM & light version)?key=IZz8nJ7ajpFQ

Afterwards stick with the roms kernel or go for Apolo 7.1 v1 (just go up on wuala)

Get the cm version.

Hi Markox,

can you somehow emphasize the note that you will not add any feature in a way that nobody could miss it?

R4B4 and all others who keep making feature requests: THIS IS A ROM COMPILED FROM ORIGINAL CM SOURCE - NO NEW FEATURES HERE!

Other topic: is anybody else having the problem that the symbol for changing between quick settings and notifications is missing once in a while and only comes back after restart? Is that a cm bug?

Hi all,

is there something new WiFi/3G related in the last build (20140913)? Both WiFi/3G connections are quite unstable, I see related icons trying to send and receive data, but in the end webpages go in timeout, or apps can't update their streams/data, and so on. That scares me, especially about WiFi (I'm getting those issues with different WiFi sources, so the problem is with the phone). 20130906 was fine, so I think I'm going to do a step back to that build.

Hi,

I have for long time problem with BT audio when I am connected to built-in hands free in my Hyundai i30. I dont know why but I have very bad quality of sound when I am calling for example to my girlfriend's number. There is some scrunch or something like this (it is hard describe) but it is so bad that I can't recognize words what is interesting is that it is not possible reproduce for every outgoing calls. (for example when I am calling to my mom's number everything is ok)

I found solution for it. I have to switch audio to ear speaker and back to built-in hnadsfree and after that is audio quality ok and very good.

I don't know if I have some HW bug or something else causes this issue.

I tried Sony Xperia and I can't reproduce this issue so now I know that problem is in phone(SW or HW issue) and no in built-in HF.

Do you have any idea?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Markox89:
Important!

In the past days I saw a lot of posts asking again and again the same things, so let me post a friendly reminder :)

Our device is old and OEM support lacks: you shouldn't complain about the overall performance or about the performance of some specific features (e.g. Screen Mirroring through ChromeCast);

If you're looking for something common or some common infos, you should definitely use xda search engine or Google;

I personally test every build before releasing it, so the device will always be usable. If you experience weird issues or something that's a showstopper for you, you should consider switching to CyanogenMod's official builds, or to another ROM: your device or setup may be incompatible with my builds;

All the infos about my builds (e.g. technical compilation infos, features, installation guide, needed patches and suggested GApps package) are in the first three posts: you should definitely read them before posting;

I'm not taking Feature Requests (see that the correspondent tab is missing from OP): you should make Feature Requests to CyanogenMod Team in the ways you prefer;

My builds are compiled from the nightly branch. The M builds are compiled from the M branch; M releases doesn't influence in any way my builds.

Now, that said, in the friendliest way, I won't answer again to the questions above :)

I strongly encourage users to not just read these answers, but also to quote them for helping other users :angel:

Hi

I think there are modules for xposed that can change the restart menu but if you think softreboot causes problems: just don't use it ...

I figured out that if some software (e. g. Xposed) is asking to reboot the device, softreboot is not always reboot enough so I am not using it. I also don't see the benefit besause it seems to be not much faster ...

So long, and thanks

Thank you, Markox for this great ROM, and thank you to the rest of you for keeping the Galaxy S2 alive and kicking for this long.

This has been my main ROM for many months now and I would have continued using it and the S2 for a while longer as it is quite a good hardware still. No thanks to Samsung our three-years-and-some old phone is still running the latest and greatest.

However, this weekend my S2 suffered death by toilet so I guess it was a sign to let go and an incentive to get new (IP67 certified) hardware. I have now used my new S5 for two days and although it's great I miss quite a few things from the debloated CM/AOSP - I think I see a rooting coming up in the near future...

Keep up the spirit and the good work, markox and the rest of you.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] souler456:
In my opinion, as long as you don't choose to Soft Reboot, it won't get you any troubles whatsoevah... So, Instead of installing another application to remove the option (additional boot time), my best suggestion would be: IGNORE IT :p

By the way, Soft Reboot kills all the main processes EXCEPT the kernel and init. In sense, it's used for Application that needs a reboot to make changes (Xposed Applications, for example). It's practically safe, unless the ROM Devs tell you NOT to do it... :eek:

:D :) ;) :good:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Dragoon Aethis:
Story, please.

Through in general, Soft Reboot doesn't really make any sense. If there's a memory leaking kernel/kernel module installed, a full reboot will reclaim some memory, where soft reboot won't. It's minimally faster than a full reboot, and, uh, why do people really use it?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] souler456:
Dude, I just said it right there. It's for Apps that requires a reboot. Soft Reboots are faster (since it doesn't restart the whole device, just the systemserver) than a Normal Reboot. So... Yeah... :D

And since our S2 suffers from "Crazy Fuel Gauge Bug", a Soft Reboot can be an alternative if you want to do a Reboot for an App pre-requisite, but faster, and can dodge the bug as well... :p

Oh, right. Almost forgot. It also restarts the mediaserver, so MediaScanner Activity will be restarted again. If you are having trouble with it, a Soft Reboot would (maybe) do the trick ;)

:D :) ;) :good:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] daniu:
Hi

Besides all the other things that I had written in other words this is new to me and you could have read in my post also that - at least on my device I experienced that xposed was not satisfied with softreboot at least the one time that I tried ...

Regards
[Galaxy S II Android Development] souler456:
Never had issues with Soft Reboots in AOSP JB (Currently on SlimBean "R") and of course, Stock JB in relation to Xposed. Going back, Anyways, as long as Marko doesn't tell you NOT to use Soft Reboot in his builds, then you're a-OK, I guess... :p

:D :) ;) :good:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ahmedelhofy:
Soft reboots are really useful especially for the s2 to help avoiding problems with that stupid fuel gauge ship... Since it does keep the kernel alive... You won't have that huge drop in your battery percentage when you reboot normally... Which is really useful if your not at home... Usually when I'm home... I never use it since, I always keep the phone at the charger...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Dragoon Aethis:
Soft Reboot is slightly faster, but it's not a lot, around 10-15 seconds or so. And apps which require a reboot may add their scripts to init, so there's that.

(On completely unrelated note, fuel gauge was fine for me since I dumped Google Apps... :S)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ahmedelhofy:
I haven't heard from anyone that removing the gapps... Fixes that battery drop problem... But anyway.. The only reason am using soft reboots is because of that battery problem.... Other than that I don't really care about those 10 seconds faster....
