Hmm, I have agree though. Haha, I realised Kitkat on its own does truly handle memory well. I stopped using Greenify sometime ago and it was still good. :good:

Hey man. ;)

No worries, rest assured I do not UV or OC my CPU at all. I'm now using Gustavo's Kernel and weirdly I don't have any more SODs. Well over 20 hours now. :good: Probably a Apolo Kernel thing. But that's weird becuase I use Apolo Kernel for previous builds and it was completely fine. Anyway will keep on a look out for it. I'm using everything stock; Ondemand and CFQ. Will do a file system scan and see. I needed Apolo/Gustavo becuase of the BLNWW and the ability to turn off the keys to save battery. And plus the gamma adjust ability; I personally find the blacks of the i9100 a little too dark for my taste and gamma adjust seem to reduce the amount of green hue apparent in older AMOLED devices. :p And... I'm a hobbyist photographer and I like my screens to be calibrated. :D

But weirdly again, auto-brightness is not working. :( I have no idea what's wrong with the auto brightness. Second time today. Can also anyone confirm this? Try setting to Auto, go to any light condition bright and dark and see if it adapts to it. :good: Mine where ever I go sticks to 41 Lux and doesn't change.

Smoothness = awesome!

Standby time battery = awesome!

Onscreen uses = 2.3hr(only plume on 2g network, nothing else)

com.android.systemui battery consumption is around 14%

Is this OK or something wrong(1 year and 11 month old battery)?

Configuration: all stock with go launcher and exposed installed.

OT: I am desperately looking for 2000mah battery here in India, any help would be highly appreciated, :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sarxes:
Hi fellas, I would like to ask you that this build still have the Mali bug ( phone freeze when you play a game e.g. Most Wanted). Atm I use for half year the NeatROM which quiet good, but I like the style of CyanogenMod. Does it worth to change it back ? Last Cyanogen was the 10.2 stable what I used. Thanks for any reply. Cheers
[Galaxy S II Android Development] djthorne:
Not sure if it helps, but just reinstalled Carmageddon and it's still freezing after a few seconds actual game play.

There's something wrong with PM's. Can't send the message, so will reply here. Nothing secret.

I already have two additional chassis fans on my setup, additional fans shouldn't be needed. About the temperature under load, I'll test it when compiling ;)

Dear colleagues, my friends at the Russian forum reported problems:

1. The device is switched off during charging, which did not exist on the firmware from infected.

2. When talking on the phone while a friend of silence fades background sounds.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Markox89:
Mmh, I'm experiencing none of these issues...could be related to bad downloads or some local issue? :eek:

BTW CyanogenMod updated the source code from 4.4.2_r1 to 4.4.2_r2, next build will have r2 ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Markox89:
Guys, I've a confession to make...I'm weak...I couldn't resist to Android 4.4.2_r2, so I've compiled a build! :p

Right now it's being uploaded, and I'm about to flash it in order to be sure it works properly :highfive:

Oh very nice! Did not do the proper research but im guessing infected moved on to a new device?? [MENTION=225651]op[/MENTION] why thank me lol :p
[Galaxy S II Android Development] highdiver_2000:
[MENTION=1597520]Markox89[/MENTION] is the voice activated shutter (cheese, whisky) available in this build?

Now with Google Now "Take a picture", this feature is now really useful.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Markox89:
Yup, Xperia Z and G Pad :)

I don't use that feature, made a quick search on the stock camera app and I didn't find it.

BTW I'm using Focal, and it has this feature ;)

I'm using Dalvik and I can't test ART due to incompatibility with some of my apps.

BTW, may you test with 22/03 official nightly and report if ART is working?

[Galaxy S II Android Development] JTaylor69:
Having a lot of issues with this June build.

Receiving lots of hangs and restarts with the odd screen freeze.

I haven't seen any improvements regarding performance unlike what the others are saying.

I've also received one or two system UI crashes too.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jgcaap:
You using default kernel?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] JTaylor69:
Yes I am. I've also tried using the memory option under performance menu, but doesn't seem to help, if anything makes things worse.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] gebazzz:
After those 2 days of use, I think this is a good build.

Pros: smoother than before, in about all phone areas (ui, switching between apps, etc)

Issues: it looks like this ROM is a bit more aggressive on battery when phone is used (+10/15%), but it can be only an impression after so few days of use; music playback sometimes isn't smooth, for example in the morning, when I turn off airplane mode and the phone uses 3G to sync all accounts, music has a lot of small pauses.

And, just for let you know, music bug is already there, so I installed again sdcard_workaround_v3.zip
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Markox89:
Next build will contain the fix for a resource leak and, fingers crossed, Android 4.4.3; hope it will fixes the issues you're experiencing.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] highdiver_2000:
I stopped my stress test just to put the LG G Watch boot animation. :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] JTaylor69:

So it's definitely not me then with problems haha?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] cubflyer:
It does not work for me, process media crashes immediately after booting and always again.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] gebazzz:
Try to contact the author of this patch, he can probably help you.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] FandangoL:
I also share the same view. I'm under ART and phone is smooth like never before but battery lasts very little.

Yesterday I had 10 hours only before recharge with 1 hour screen time and very little gaming.

Another issue I seen is related to the proximity sensor.

Upon using the phone dialer the screen remains black also when I move the phone from my ear.

I have to turn on the screen using buttons to terminate the call.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jgcaap:
Must say that with your kernel the phone is really smooth and fast. Having problems like freezing with custom kernel. Finally something that gives me peace for stability.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] A_Kirsh:
How did you get ART working? For me when I try it just reboots without doing anything.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Karpfenhai:
Dont try to enable ART while xposed is installed :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Markox89:
In addition to Karp's post, ART is smoother, but also less battery friendly ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Markox89:
Added Antutu score to the Screenshots section. I'm not a benchmark fan, but someone may find this useful :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] keithross39:
I think that apps like antutu are OK if I want to keep track of my device performance over a number of flashes, but you have to be careful about trying to recreate identical phone status for every test...eg closing all running apps and clearing RAM directly before testing.....otherwise the results can become 'open to interpretation' lol.....

And as for using antutu (and the others) for comparing one device to another.....

It can very rapidly degenerate into......

'hey, I can p**s this far, what about you?'...:D:D

My wife says I'm a phone geek....She's probably right :):D

[Galaxy S II Android Development] sarxes:
That means that the Cyanogenmod never 'll be stable ... I mean if I wanna play a game it's not good ... It's very silly that this mali bug still exit ....:rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] FandangoL:
Yes, is still around and even worst with latest -O3 build.

Unfortunately now I have more freeze for a single day where in previous builds I had only once a day (that is anyway too much)

---------- Post added at 09:21 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:18 AM ----------

I don't know if helps but also playing to Hobbit KOM experiences crashes.

I understood that if I performs actions too quickly the game crashes.

For example if I click a button immediately after it appears, the game exists.

Same also if I perform a slide on the game map immediately after closing a windows that covered the map.

Hope it helps.

I agree that such bug make our phone less stable for gaming with CM11 :crying:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ranhaber:
Using this build for about 3 day.

No crashes, no reset, no stucks , all fine and smooth.

The bug in the previous build (menu in different app closes all the time) is now fixed.

For me it's a good build.

Battery seems to be the same.

If there are improvements in smoothness, battery or stability, it's hard to see.

This 3 years old phone' is still kicking Thanks to you and the cyanogenmod community.

:good: Keep up the good job :good:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] FandangoL:
Hello,

I've seen in the CM11 "official" thread that front camera video recording bug is fixed.

Do you think will be also included in your next weekly?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Markox89:
Every patch included in official nightlies is included in mine as well.

Considering positive feedbacks about this one, it will be included in my next build, regardless to the merging into official ones. So, short answer: a big yes :good:

It has been merged ;)

I merged it in my own build and I can record with the front cam now. :good:

rom is nice, but each download from play store takes ages.

also, couldn't have lock in my gps.

tried to change modem(xxms4), but nothing helped.

now i'm charging my device, will try same things later. if nothing will help i'll restore my latest backup.

thx for your work marko.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jgcaap:
Clean cache. Working great for me.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] drastys:
I have sometimes problem with crashes apollo app even if I don't run this app
[Galaxy S II Android Development] SomeFormOFhuman:
I concur about the GPS. It's simply not working. I can charge and download apps from the play store just fine. And yes, clearing the cache does help as I had this problem long ago with other ROMs, for those who have download issues. You can also re-flash the G-apps again if it still doesn't work.

As for GPS, try this: Go download Runkeeper or Runtastic from the Play Store. You'll find the GPS will keep searching and searching forever despite under full clear overhead conditions. This is with everything turned on, location reporting, high accuracy and etc.

To further isolate the issue, I experimented and tried with a clean and fresh install of June 6th build with no apps or Xposed modules (Basically everything stock, even the kernel). I downloaded runkeeper from the play store immediately after flashing and it still does not lock on. Later I restarted multiple times, cleared app cache Wipe Dalvik and cache. No luck. This is clearly something wrong with the GPS on the present 6th June build.

I reverted back to the previous build from backup and it was solid.

Now I'm going to try the flashing the official CM11 to confirm this. Just reportin'. :good:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Markox89:
Multiple answers:

PegasusQ is the default CPU Governor for my choice, I consider it the best one.

I have no battery drain at all, BetterBatteryStats may help you find its root.

I'm in some Play Store beta programs, so almost daily updates, no issues at all with latest Play Store version.

GPS in device mode only is slow, but it definitely locks. I change the NTP server on every new build flash, and with Sygic I can always get a lock.

If you have weird issues I suggest reverting to stock kernel (if you're using a modded one), reverting to Dalvik (if you're using ART) and preform a data wipe / factory reset (you can use Titanium Backup to restore apps, but not Nandroid).

I'm very busy these days, maintaining my building environment after the 4.4.3 upgrade...

Hmm.... Is there a reason why do you change the NTP server on a new build flash? Perhaps I could try that.

No worries man, we all appreciate all you have made! And as long as you enjoy doing it too, it shouldn't be a hindrance on your daily life. :good: :D Afterall, it's a hobby. :p

I was thinking of that earlier today too... Might be worth a shot to tweak some of the settings to suit the region I'm in. (Singapore).
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Markox89:
I cannot find the source right now (so you'll have to just believe me :angel: ), but changing the NTP server to suit your region is useful because the default one is in north America and, if you're not there too, this may lead to a slower and less accurate lock ;)

Find the proper one is easy, just Google it :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] FandangoL:
You're right man. Actually I replace default GPS.conf with a customized one each time i flash a new release of the ROM. Remember also that agps shall be reconfigured each time you flash. First lock needs always some minute. From that i lock in seconds. I can't attach files otherwise i would attach my configuration an example

YouTube 5.7

Hey everyone, hope you are all having a great Sunday!

Has anyone tried YouTube 5.7 with CM11? I ask because I thought that with the selective quality they have introduced, the pixelation issues might have been fixed along with it.. :fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] highdiver_2000:
Most of use AGPS because a pure GPS solution takes minutes to lock. The data rate from the GPS sats are measured in bits per sec. The use of NTP servers with mobile data assist in the resolution of location. Identifying the satellites that are not within the area.

The default NTP server in the gps.conf file is somewhere in North America. If you like are non US resident, some time is required to identify the nearrest NTP server. In my first of using CM, I have never change the setting.

I recommend changing the NTP server to a regional server, eg Asia etc. That way, you can travel around and get good GPS locks.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] SomeFormOFhuman:
Hey guys, and MarkoX, just an update for those who are having GPS issues... I tried changing the NTP server to our region and AGPS patch... Nope they don't work. I still don't get a lockdown with Runkeeper. :(

Stricken and desperate to get it working, I took matters in my own hands threw all my cards on the table: I did a rather impromptu action and reflashed the entire ROM + Gapps, I cleared the Google Play and Google Services Framework cache, wipe Dalvik and cache, restarted the device again and re-enabled location reporting...

IT WORKS!!! I got a lockdown!! :good: I didn't change any of the NTP settings too.

When you flash a ROM, the GPS cache is cleared. You can do the same using GPS Test+. No reboot too!
