Unfortunately latest release was not as stable as experimental one :p. I have occasional freezes (did not understand if dependent on some action).

I am going back to August release.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Ham1do:
I agree with you , i have occasional freezes too , previous build seems more stable

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Ferdinandgab:
hello. i have just one issue with all the MM roms ive tried. (CM. DU. ACIP) when the phone its on it wont charge, the battery keeps getting down. and sometimes when charges and its off it shows differents % numbers. that thing does not happend on JB or Kitkat. does someone faces this?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] tobad:
hey Markox89, thanks for the good news.

how would you advise/suggest to update from oktober build (I9100 20161001) @ twrp 3.0.2-1?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Ferdinandgab:
im really interested in flashing this rom. even tho this does not has RR remix. i read a lot of pages. so i got just some questions. is there any configuration to great performance and battery life? and BLN works on here(the mod .zip) ? or the light buttons works (dont stay on all the time) because i have very bad battery life experiences on others roms. you guys recomends to always calibrate?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Nomeji:
This ROM and kernel is a stock CyanogenMod so it doesn't have any tweaks. If your looking for battery optimization and BLN you should look to DorimanX kernel that should be compatible with this ROM.

EDIT: Here you go: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3145879

It claim to be CM13 compatible so you can give it a try. I think it's the only way to have BLN.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MigoMujahid:
No it's not the only way

You can look for arnab "BLN" flashable zip, it supports cm13 and all based cm13 roms, you don't have to flash an entire kernel.

Is it possible to go back to lollipop once I installed mm?

Is the performance of your december build the same, better or worse compared to your last lollipop build with trim support?

I'm still with that lollipop build and I realized that it's a bit laggy because of the old hardware.

Btw great job!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Skyline:
Yes you can revert back to lollipop with clean wipe. MM roms feels smoother than L but not always anything can goes wrong with custom roms but you can try yourself. Just be sure that you have repitted your S2 with 1gb system partition

Happy Flashing
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Ham1do:
Great job Markox89 , since august build my S2 running this rom more and more stable :good:

any problem to flash this ROM ?!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fubo73:
Yes. You must first repartition before flashing. Look around to learn how to.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jpzito:
Hi, I'm currently using this ROM without any issues, but I need to have SELinux set to permissive on boot because of some applications (AirAudio). Is there anybody with the knowledge to recompile/repack the Kernel of the latest nightly (20161218), so we can have the Linaro CM13 with SELinux set to permissive?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Ham1do:
I'm using XtremeMusic mod which requires SELinux set to permissive , Kernel Adiutor applies what u need after 5 sec of boot
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jpzito:
Thank you sir, that did the trick, just created a custom control for SELinux that is applied on boot as you instructed and it works fine.

Thank you very much!

Question about Contacts - Add event like birthday

Hi,

I have installed that ROM on a friend's Samsung i9100, and I noticed the following : within Contacts, I am unable to add a date for an event like Birthday. There is no such field proposed. It is a bit annoying, as I like to use Birthday adapter from F-Droid to get warned on friend's birthday... ;)

The Contacts version is v6.0-1 as I can see.

On my phone, I have such field proposed, and I am running Contacts 6.0-6.

So is there a way to upgrade the Contacts application on that ROM ?

Thanks.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MigoMujahid:
You can add the birthday in calendar instead, this rom might get a very late update or not be updated anymore, you can also look for a contacts app in GooglePlay.

In mx player, go to "settings\list", under "scan" select "folders" and select all of them except that are crossed. Go back to main page of mx and refresh. If that dosent work then restart the app. Now you should be able to watch you videos.

Cannot reboot any more nor go to recovery mod

Hi all

after all wipe(s) I installed cm-13.0-20161216-MARKOX89-i9100.zip from recovery, all seems going well, I setted USB debug mod etc and I tried to use ./adb reboot after pushing my previous mmssms.db

Now I have only Samsung SII GT_I9100 logo that appears several seconds, then black screen, then Samsung S2 logo etc ...

I cannot go to recovery mod (power+volume up + central button), only in download mod.

Any way to solve that? :(

Here below is the pit file extracting with heimdall (I use only linux)

After a lot of test, I successfully installed S2 Repair ROM (https://zfirmware.com/samsung-galaxy-s2-i9100-repair-firmware/) using odin(v3.13.1)/wine . And reboot works now.

My first question, is cm-13.0-20161216-MARKOX89-i9100 compatible with my I9100?

Second question, howto add the recovery (would like twrp) which has been erased (during the wipes) before cm13 installation?

Thanks in advance for your help

Do you know the Lux App? I'm sure you could improve quite a bit of your high Screen consumption.

I can recommend it !

(If you buy Lux you can participate in the beta program)

Thanks for the recommendation, but my eyes (like the rest of me lol) are getting a bit worn out :(

I've got the brightness (and contrast) set in such a way that I can actually see what is on the screen.....if I start messing, it's only going to lessen the screen visibility for me.......

Thanks anyway fella.....

Hi,

I would like to enquire what is your longest Up time? The time between reboots, not to be confused with battery life. Strangely I have been unable to go above 3 days.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] cubflyer:
Any experiences about the newest version? How does it work, stable?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] highdiver_2000:
So far so good. Front camera video still does not work, even with Google Camera.

Up time is around 3 days. On two occasions, it just froze and I have to power restart.

Nice generic things about KitKat

1. You can download and install apps simultaneously. Prior (JB) versions, this is done consecutively.

2. Memory housekeeping greatly improved.

3. Battery improved over ver 4.4
[Galaxy S II Android Development] cubflyer:
I'm on 30-03 version and still have the problem that the phone freezes after longer time (maximum 2-3 days), I'm on Gustavo stable Kernel. So I'm still hoping that problem will be solved one time...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Markox89:
I turn off the phone every night and charge it :)

About the front camera, I can't remember if someone tried if it is working on official builds :)

Please let me know :angel:

About the freezes...try latest build! I reverted Dorimanx's patch to address this issue ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jnetode:

[Galaxy S II Android Development] roydest:
In normal use, three days are a very good value!

At the moment I use my S2 mainly as Alarm Clock (and update Apps and ROM / Kernel), because I mainly use my new LG G2

Current consumption: 4d 9h and still 60% battery (GSAM Battery Monitor shows 0.2% / h) Of this consumed 40% used Lux 0.7%, Greenify Pro 0.2% and IC Pro 0,4% (IC Pro controls the synchronization and has a night-profile), as you can see these Apps consume very little battery.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sk1887:
It seems latest nightly, even this optimized version breaks the ability for apps to write settings to data.

I tried this with many apps. Messaging app: try setting vibrate pattern if you close the app the setting is unchanged.

It's weird. I'll revert back to earlier nightlies which seemed to save things normally.

Did anyone notice this bug? I thought it was because I dirty flashed, even when I fully wiped the problem occured.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] cpl.Bower:
Stupid bug

The stupid music bug still there. I wonder if ever would be fixed...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] highdiver_2000:
Hi you talking about time between charge. That is a reflection on how you use.

I am interested in how long you use the device till it hangs and you are force to reboot. That is the stability of the build.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MikeViller:
cannot update and install app with play store on this new update ?????
[Galaxy S II Android Development] SomeFormOFhuman:
I have managed to reach an up-time of 180 hours (That's about 9 days without turning off my phone) with April 8 build and I see no issue with it. Doesn't slow down or lag through time at all. Should've taken a screenshot as I just flashed April 16 build before reading your post and it's still solid. Everything's working and my 64GB class 10 SD card formatted as ExFat. :good:

The only bug I can speak for, is the front camera, which I agree it's a little wonky. But I always use Procapture and it seems good with it.

3 cheers for Markox!! :victory:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Markox89:
Did this happen with other apps? BTW if it happens on official builds, no wonder it happens here as well :)

I know...I'm always following "music bug" thread...Entropy is up to something new... :fingers-crossed:

Indeed, I really think latest build has improved the stability ;)

But c'mon, be nice with your phone, let it take some rest and turn it off, it deserves it :highfive:

Thank you for showing appreciation :)

Not happening here, just done both; sorry, it's local, not ROM related :angel:

BTW, I'm thinking about setting PegasusQ and ROW as default in next build...let me know what do you think :cool:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sl1p1990:
Dude, HOW?! What battery do you use? Are you running stock CM kernel?

I've never had such an amazing battery standby time, on any rom whatsoever. I have bought my SGS2 in September 2012 ( a new one ) and battery life has always been the biggest downside for me - on stock Samsung ICS, then on stock Samsung JB, on CM 4.2, 4.3, 4.4 both linaro builds and official CM builds, with or without Gustavo's kernel. Is it possible that my battery was screwed from the very beginning? I've never reached standby time longer than 2 full days on any of these roms, I always have sync, mobile data, wifi, gps off, I turn them on whenever I need them. I usually go to bed with 40-~10% battery left, depending on my usage throughout the day (I always charge the phone overnight and unplug it when I wake up). I probably won't be buying a replacement battery since I'm planning to sell i9100 and buy Z1 Compact instead. However, through all the time I've been wondering whether or not this phone's battery is so terrible or it's just me who has this experience.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] keithross39:
I think that battery life on *any* smartphone is bad when compared to a 2G brick....... that extra functionality has to be powered *somehow*.........

I can only compare battery life against my old smartphone (galaxy W).......

From that perspective, the battery life on the S2 is good.......

What it comes down to is.....

Different people, different experience, different opinion......

Yes, I went back with your 8th april rom and issues are gone.

The problem happens with whatsapp(noticed "conversation tone as enabled", you disable and it comes back),dsp manager (try to enable compression/bass boost in speaker,headphone settings tab and come back to the menu, the settings will be back to default.)

In the messaging app it happens, the same and all happens if i set something in other apps' settings.

Yes, since 15th april nightly this occurs even in their official builds.

I suspect the new theme engine is causing problems

Please note I did a full wipe.

As for the music bug, let's hope it's fixed. Personally I use bluetooth earphones and the freeze doesn't occur =D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] highdiver_2000:
That is impressive. Sadly I have not found a build that can last more than 14 days in a very long time. I am now waiting on 16 Apr build.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Markox89:
Working all day on improving my building environment (nothing you'll notice, but this will reduce the chances of a failed build due to local issues) :cool:

Do not think that when I'm not compiling builds I'm a Snorlax! :p

Since I read no objections, PegasusQ and ROW will be default CPU Governor and I/O Scheduler in next build.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] roydest:
After 2-3 days the battery is empty (which is normal), so your battery works in the normal range (as I said my phone currently acts only as alarm clock). The screen is the biggest consumer, by optimizing the brightness you can save a lot of energy. The App LUX (PRO / Beta!) creates the best results by reducing the brightness (without limiting the comfort). Grennify (PRO!) helps by sending unused apps into the idle state. A profile that controls the synchronization and the night mode helps to save additional energy (I use IC Pro for it). This together is responsible for my good result.

I did not have such problems. The ROM is very stable (no hanger, sudden reboots or similar - only the Kitkat bugs). The latest build I have to test yet.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Markox89:
I'm also thinking about making a "release day", a compilation marathon for all the devices I'm maintaining...no more releases in different days for different devices, it's a waste of time... :angel:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] keithross39:
That would indicate that you are going to set yourself targets and/or try to build/release to a predefined schedule.......

If you were doing this as paid employment, that might be in order....

But as you are doing this simply because you enjoy it, that sort of added pressure is kind of counterproductive, as it will inevitably reduce the amount of enjoyment you'll get from cooking ROMs......

Real life has a way of screwing up enjoyment.....go with the flow mate, we're all just glad to have you here producing what you can, when you can.......

Nobody here is going to ask any more of you than what you already give......:):)

Sent from my Markox powered KitKatted S2
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Markox89:
I appreciate your concern :)

But the aim of this idea is different ;)

I won't say something like "Monday is release date every week", it will be like it's now, at least once a week I'll make a build.

The point is: if I compile all my builds with the same sync time I save time, the builds after the first will be much faster (mainly because common stuff is already compiled, so no need to recompile it) :D

And so I'll maintain just one changelog :p

EDIT:

...but it forgot to change default CPU Governor and I/O Scheduler :silly:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sl1p1990:
Even if it is left alone in standby mode the battery consumption is around 2%/h, so it discharges after 2 full days if left alone for such a long time; if I use it in a normal way it simply lasts a day. I use greenify but I do not use Lux; although I have heard about the app I decided not to install it since I keep my phone almost always on minimum brightness. So yeah, that would be it. Your battery life is still better than mine, just take into consideration the standby battery consumption and thus standby time - it's not near as good as yours.

Hi guys i have a gps problem, it doesn't connect to satellite (using gps device only without 3g or wifi. Im on latest build with stock kernel, before flashing i cleaned factory reset, partition cache and dalvik), anybody has this issue as well?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] roydest:
I have no real explanation for it (perhaps the mostly deactivated 3G, only Wifi is used to sync, after 3 seconds without data transmission, the synchronization is finished- sync only if screen is on, or after a set interval - no synchronization during the night-IC Pro automatically manages the modules and settings), but in standby my battery consumption is around 1% / h, in most cases even less than 1% / h, that makes the difference to your consumption. Perhaps an app created too many wakelocks, but you've probably already checked that.

Hi guys, may I know which modem you guys are using? I'm getting a ridiculous 20%/h battery drain and charging the phone takes 6+ hours unless turned off completely (airplane mode doesn't help much).

I'm asking because in this thread it seems like flashing a new modem will help: http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s2/general/overheating-fix-samsung-galaxy-s2-fix-t1656005

[Galaxy S II Android Development] deyan:
I have done something foolish today!

Two days ago i updated to 16/04 build and I noticed that my standby battery drainage rose from 0.7%/h to 2%. I couldn't find why. (I seen that others had that)

So I decided to downgrade the ROM back to 25/3.

WRONG!

The least part is that I lost settings.

The quick settings drawer doesn't show... No matter if I slide from the right side of status or if press the button from notifications drawer it doesn't do nothing.

I found a way to open it if I slide in the bottom bar of the notifications drawer but only toggle buttons work and the other don't do nothing.

I have upgraded again to 16/04 but it didn't fix the problem...

What should I do to avoid a hard reset?
