[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] jojobg:
Guys, you do realize that 20160203 is the last CM12.1 nightly. Do not attempt to install CM12.1 kernel on nightly 20160204 onward, use CM13 kernels instead.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] makix13:
Thanks for the advice, I'll be on CM 12.1 a little more (tested MM and I'll be waiting for more nightly) and thanks to Lanchon again for bring us safe trim to S2 (and isorec) .

Remember this is 5.1.1 thread, when move to MM for sure I'll use Lanchon's CM 13 trim kernels [emoji6]

Anyone have a mirror for 20160203?

It seems that the official download page removed all CM12.1 nightlies, but I'm not ready yet for CM13, so I would like to get my hands on the latest CM12.1 version out there.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] t0lits:
thanks sir!..

any mirror for the last 12.1 (02032016) nightly update?..i'm not ready for the cm13 yet as i still want to enjoy the sweetness of lollipop haha...thanks in advance!..

Hi,

I'd use Markox ROM which can still be found here and does not have any disadvantages besides that it is said to be faster due to the compiler optimizations

well ... is it worse? For me: I think you cannot really tell if it's better but I think it definitely won't be worse ... I'd saved that time to flash back - even LA likes Markox work ...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] cherryb8844:
Ya like me too older build 29th January is great but some times legy slower and the latest fast and smooth but not battery friendly so I decided to back official 26 January build I aspect when cm will upload a new snapshot of 12.1 but I'm feel stable on nightly 26 still waiting when Major issues are fixed on cm13 so i move to cm13
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] t0lits:
thank you sir!..very much appreciated!..

how to flash this?..do i have to wipe data/cache/dalvik cache before flashing this rom in recovery?..do i have to flash gapps again after flashing this?..thanks again and regards...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] makix13:
For lag issues, my recommendation,in my case works great with nightly 02022016

Trim kernel (all credits for [MENTION=4141005]Lanchon[/MENTION] Master [emoji481] [emoji106] )

LMK profile from MM (all credits for [MENTION=5811506]gsstudios[/MENTION] Master [emoji481] [emoji106] )

Set this values in kernel adiutor (sorry in Spanish, you can find in this thread gsstudios info)

And of course [MENTION=5246166]lysergicacid[/MENTION] and his amazing work (like God [emoji481] [emoji122] [emoji122] [emoji122] [emoji106] )

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] fireburner-de:
Deepens from which ROM you are coming:

When coming from an older CM12.1 build, just flash that nightly and wipe cache + dalvik. No re flashing gapps needed.

If you come from another ROM, full wipe + fresh install si recommended.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] t0lits:
coming from an older cm12.1 sir...

wipe cache + dalvik first then flash, or flash first then wipe cache + dalvik?..

sorry i'm just noob when it comes to this...

thanks again sir!..
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] fireburner-de:
It works either way.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] t0lits:

So I had kernel-Lanchon-TRIM-IsoRec-20160206-cm-12.1-i9100.zip installed on an older build of CM12.1 (20151224), I updated to 20160202 using CyanDelta today, and the kernel seems to have got replaced with CyanogenMod kernel, which I believe does not have TRIM support.

http://i.imgur.com/rkNwEW7.jpg

Booted into recovery, and TWRP(by arnab) is still there.

Is it normal to loose the installed kernel when I update CM?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] fubo73:
Of course. Recovery is now isolated, but not the kernel. Until the CM team decides to merge TRIM in official CM, you will have to reflash kernel every time.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ringen00:
Anyone who can confirm that the app FrameLapse is working again in newer releases? Used to stay black once started! Seemed like it couldn't find the camera somehow...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] UnserVater:
Hi yesterday i found out that there are cm12.1 nightlies and i was so excited that i flashed via cm updater.

i did not perform a full wipe :( and booted again. then i downloaded the gapps, but all i was getting were those gapps errors. i tried to flash some other gapp packages but none of them worked for me.

now i googled this thread but in the meantime i deleted the play store and i have no clue how to install it again.

the cyanogen recovery doesn't want to perform a full wipe/factory reset and that's why i cant install the pico gapps pack.

so now my status on the phone is: just gapp errors and no play store. what can i do next ?

i think i need a clean install but how when i can't full wipe my phone ?

is this philz kernel workaround maybe working in my situation ?

ps: i updated from official cm11 nightlies (4.4.4)

thank you in advance :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] LonsDead:
Flash kernel dorimanx, after flash instal stweaks app and set the GPS for your country zone and you will see that it works perfectly.

greetings
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Ferretx:
Thanks for the new build LA, partition is back to 1gb :D
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] mariox_92:
Two days ago I had similar problems with the installation process and CM recovery. Two possible solutions are:

1) Flash Philz recovery from CM recovery, then reboot recovery (you have to power off and then go to recovery again) and do all the process from there (clean flash the ROM). You cand find Philz recovery here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=61647924&postcount=30

2) Flash stock ROM with Odin and install these nightlies from a totally clean system. First install a KitKat compatible recovery (CWM) and then flash cm12.1. This solution is more difficult but you will have more stability then.

By the way, install the Gapps that the developer suggests! Tk Pico Gapps
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] eminem_b:
Updates seem to work when with official nightlies with TK gapps on top. Cheers! :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] essenov:
/system partition looks fine now, thank you LA!

Unfortunately I still cannot reconnect to a saved wi-fi until I remove/forget the network and reenter it or reboot. This is happening I believe since I selected Wi-Fi region code from Advanced.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] oscarlamyf:
AFAIK official build comes with cm recovery and there is no backup/restore function. How do you guys do backup when flashing?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] eminem_b:
Is it good to check every time if there's a newer version of the pico gapps and flash them or I can just update and rely on the /data updates? I'm actually not sure if play store actually gets updated at all. I think that only a new .zip can do that. Any ideas?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Fr4nz83:
Hi all,

I just wanted to report a little bug which emerged with the last nightly (06/07).

Basically, when I activate the developers' options the "performance" option doesn't show up anymore. I'm using the Italian language, so I don't know if this bug is present with other languages as well.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Lysergic Acid:
I got the bug in my third attempt, I'll investigate this, thanks.

I got the bug in GPS status too, I'm investigating...

The play store/services updates itself silently. You can forget about updating gapps if you want ;)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] miki4242:
This is not a bug. The "performance" settings were dropped from CM 12.1 just days ago. Please see here for more information (and keep an eye on this page for all changes between nightlies).

EDIT: Hmm, "per app profiles" is supposed to have been moved to the "battery" pane in "settings", but apparently it is hidden. It does show up as a result when doing a search in "settings" using the magnifying glass button, but tapping the "Enable per app profiles" result just takes me to the "battery" pane which doesn't actually show that setting.

My phone is slow enough on opera,

I flashed 05/7 nightly, then tk gapps, then dorimax 10.44 kernel then superSU.

Is there a new dorimax kernel? Any link?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Fr4nz83:
So, I think I've found a bug for real this time: if you use the "camera" app (NOT the gallery one!) and you select one of the images already stored in the device, if you tap the menu button on the bottom-left a black-box appears instead of the expected menu.

Since I'm a new poster I cannot report the link to a screenshot I've made depicting the aforementioned bug...however, it should be extremely easy to replicate it.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] miki4242:
Just wanted to give lots of kudos to Lysergic Acid for a job well done!

I updated my S2 from an "unofficial" CM12.1 to 0705 nightly by formatting /system, /data and /cache and flashing from recovery.

I'm using a custom PIT w/ 1GB system partition and 4GB data partition. I did flash the "pico" gapps as per instructions this time, and I must say I've fallen in love with the tk modular gapps packages. In fact I hope these could some day become the standard for CM.

A day later successfully OTA updated to 0706 nightly (which has the system partition resize fix).

Everything works great, battery use is great, 3G/WIFI/GPS/Bluetooth all work fine.

Great job!

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] franticfreddy:
Yes it is.

And stock cm kernel does not have trim support.

You could flash again Lanchon's trim kernel.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Kevin3014:
Thanks! This was my first time updating CM, hence, the 'noob' question.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] zbsbabar:
Last CM 12.1 is best.. no bug so far
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] n3m3sis:
Best thing to do is to flash your update, do not reboot. Then flash Lanchons recovery with trim kernel again and then reboot.

Is there a possibility to install CWM recovery on the last cm12.1 nightly? It's all fine like that but I need CWM now to do a backup! Usually I don't want to mess around with a crazy new kernel, phone has to work :P

You can flash this coming from any ROM. Just make sure you are starting with a KitKat-compatible recovery and then follow the steps written in the first post.

Can I update to CM 13 without the need to lose all system settings?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] makix13:
Sorry if it's an off-topic question but, in CM 13 is added f2fs support for our device.

Could this be a good reason to generate a new snapshot with this included (and perhaps the last snapshot for CM 12.1) ??. [MENTION=414800]arnab[/MENTION] is working in a twrp recovery with f2fs support (keep calm, give time to arnab to do it [emoji6] ) but to take advantage of it the LP kernel must support it.

Thanks in advance. Anyway big thanks to all for this great rom in our beloved S2

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ajislav:
Well, first of all, f2fs has not been merged in CM13 for our device yet see http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/132900/

Second of all, the necessary patches would have to be applied to the CM12.1 branch as well (this is probably fairly easy)

Next, since even freezefix did not result in snapshot (which I believe it should have), I don't think a snapshot for f2fs is likely

Last, all development is now in CM13.

TL;DR. I dont think a snapshot is coming.

p.s. personally, I am waiting a few more weeks before jumping to CM13. Hopefully, by that time f2fs is in.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] makix13:
I agree with you, it was only a wish.

I'm very happy with latest 12.1 nightly, and I think could be a good latest snapshot with freezefix & f2fs and end this rom development (so sad not included trim but it's what it is) but I understand that [MENTION=5246166]lysergicacid[/MENTION] & others great developers are working hard on MM.

In my case I only have some little issues related to Bluetooth, but in IMHO it's one of the best rom for our S2 (I tested DU & Minimal Layers and they are great roms too) so long live to S2 [emoji6], and I think I'll move to MM soon.

Please Help me Someone .

I updated (from inside Android update-menu 12.1 Nightly) to 13.1 (lattest nighly).

There are many issues with my installed apps so I want to Flash back the 12.1 Nightly.

But the new Recovery (13.1 recovery) has problem flashing zip update from both sdcard0 and 1.

Even before I can select the .zip file, it says load failed or something like that.

What can I do to reflash 12.1 nightly ?

Is anyone having issues with setting an MP3 as alarm tone? It used to work, I am not sure since when it doesn't work anymore. In alarm settings I can select Music and then navigate to songs in any of the options (Audio, Storage). I can see the songs but can't select them (grayed out). I can select a playlist but that is not played. Music is replaced by Piezo alarm

I was on a stock partition with a January nightly shortly before the one that got IsoRec enabled kernel. Not sure if MP3 alarm worked back then. In the recent days I did the following.

-updated OTA to last CM12 nightly

-flashed IsoRec TWRP

-repitted with Lanchons tool

-installed BlackPlayer from Google

But I can't imagine any of these disturbing alarm.

This is no call for help, just asking out of curiosity, I'll switch to CM13 in some weeks anyway.

did you tried to create the "Alarms" folder in your internal memory and put your mp3 inside? It works for me in both CM12 and CM13.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] kudos1uk:
Anyone have an idea with my battery issue.

I put my phone on change when I go to bed and wake up in the morning to 66%.

When I check battery info it show it reached 100% about 1AM then discharged to 66% by the time I got up. I can't understand why it stops charging after it reaches 100%, on latest nightly and this has happened a lot over the last couple of weeks (several reboots in that time).

Actually it show it never quite made 100% maybe 98%, if I press power used since last full charge it show right through to night before when I woke to 100%.

Edit: Wondering if USB block is cutting out when no charge is flowing, but as I use wireless charging you would expect the coils to still be outputting.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] chrisXL:
I reduced the battery drain by disabling some google settings (location, now, ok google ...) that I don't use. Anyway betterbatterystats app can help you.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] kudos1uk:
Battery drain is not the problem, it's why it stops charging when it reaches 100% then slowly discharges (like normal) even though its on charge still, it's like someone turned the charger off when it was fully charged.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] fireburner-de:
As suggested by [MENTION=5028189]chrisXL[/MENTION] create/find Alarms folder on internel or external sd card and put it there.

The same works with Notifications and Ringtones folder. The advantage is, that e.g. ringtones directly appear in ringtones selection.

Wireless charging on S2? Wow shall that work?

I agree, I don't think it's ROM related, I have a number of batteries, several original, several Anker and lots of Cr@p ebay ones. I got a feeling ins USB transformer or Qi charging location related as it does not happen every night.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hebermc:
My dad asked for help updating his S2, I repartitioned mine a looong time ago and have very bad memory. But from re-reading stuff I suppose the updated steps would be:

1) Repartition (http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s2/development-derivatives/mod-increase-partition-size-t3011162) using PIT file I like and isorec kernel (http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s2/development-derivatives/convert-kernel-zip-to-tar-t2994381)

2) Reboot to recovery and install cyanogenmod(12/13) and gapps (5/6)

Would that be a "current" instalation method?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] chrisXL:
If you flash CM13 you need an isorec recovery managed by the isorec kernel, otherwise you'll have problems (the stock recovery is useless).
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hebermc:
Forgot that step...

So: Repartition -> Cyanogenmod -> gapps -> isorec(cm13)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Wachicamo:
Repartition>CM>Isorec> Gapps(In case you are using a CWM recovery).
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hebermc:
Phone is still on stock rom, do I need to go to CWM after repartition or can I just use isorec at that point?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] chrisXL:
Start from stock JB. Flash Philz kernel + pit in odin (repartition). Format "all" partitions (some kernel don't let you format preload). Flash a KK compatible kernel and reboot in recovery. Now flash isorec recovery> CM>Gapps>isorec kernel. Consider also a TRIM isorec kernel in last step (see [MENTION=4141005]Lanchon[/MENTION] thread and thanks him)
