Well in addition to what [MENTION=7183558]fireburner-de[/MENTION] already correctly wrote, just to make clearer:

Yes, CM offers even major updates within a branch, so if you were on CM12.1 Nightlies before, you got already offered updates to CM13 Nightlies since february!

Even if there is very little chance of success without performing some manual steps in there, that's how they do it.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] YAP13:
I know this may be a noob question but since there aren't dailies anymore and I don't feel like updating to 6.0 yet...

Does the 5.1 branch still get security updates? I think so.

Assuming I have the skills to build my own ROM from sources (I think I do, trying won't harm anyway), should I be reasonably confident that the updated sources will compile and run cleanly? Should I *expect* regressions in a branch that is essentially on maintenance mode from what I can tell?

Thanks in advance for your insight.

Hi there

I'm currently on cm 12.1 20151103 nightly. And Recently I tried to update it cm12.1 snapshot version via ota update But in the process I received an error message of verification signature failed. Also tired with cwm recovery and received message patching system unconditionally and that's it. Rom doesn't install. Can anyone tell me how should I install this.

SD card has partition into 6gb for data and 7 gb for sd (in case that's the problem)

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] fireburner-de:
[MENTION=7404995]7shan[/MENTION] I would recommend using 20160203 instead of the snapshot, if you want to stay on CM12.1.

Hello I've got a problem. I have installed CM12.1 with its CyanogenRecovery. Now I tried to flash TWRP isorec recovery but when I restart system and recovery there is no change. So I cant install a new recovery :/

So my question is: What do I have to do to flash TWRP recovery?

Thank you for your help!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] LeBourrin:
I think that you installed CM12.1 Snapshot. It's not the most recent version of CM12.1 for our I9100.

Flash the cm-12.1-20160203-NIGHTLY-i9100 release which is ISOREC compatible.

If you can't flash this zip with CM Recovery, you have to temporary flash a TAR kernel/recovery by Odin.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Thomas_Mmm:
Yes, you're right, its the snapshot. I will try to flash the nightly:good:

help

hello, I have a problem with CM 12.1 nightly 20151230 (and i think 20151224, too): randomly my S2 crashes, perhaps for a crisis caused by RAM, when i open any app. It happens rarely, but it would be important if you do not happen completely.

Can you help me, please? Does it exist a solution for this problem?

Thanks.

Bye
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] alienflorina:
When you say crash? I think that freeze fix was not integrated in that build. Why don't you update to the latest nightly? Or simply flash latest launchon's kernel for 12.1 that give you freeze fix. Cheers
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] vincenzo.rimi:
i use "stock_kernel_twrp-signed" now; can i reply it with launchon's kernel for 12.1 and keep TWRP recovery?

where can i download the launchon's kernel for 12.1?

i found this thread : http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s2/orig-development/isorec-isolated-recovery-galaxy-s2-t3291176 , and i think that i first install from recovery the file "kernel-Lanchon-TRIM-IsoRec-20160206-cm-12.1-i9100.zip" (no signed or signed version?) and after install the file "recovery-Lanchon-IsoRec-TWRP-2.8.7.0-20160113-i9100-(by-arnab).zip" or "twrp-3.0.2-0-i9100.img", but because I would not make trouble, can you tell me the files to download and what i have to do exactly to resolve freeze problem?

thanks

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] fireburner-de:
Afaik, CM does not support MHL at all, as this does have Samsung specific closed source drivers.

[MENTION=7242289]vincenzo.rimi[/MENTION]

Yes you need to flash

kernel-Lanchon-TRIM-IsoRec-20160206-cm-12.1-i9100.zip

and

recovery-Lanchon-IsoRec-TWRP-2.8.7.0-20160113-i9100-(by-arnab).zip

It doesn't matter in which order you flash them. Just flash them one after another without a reboot in between.

But I would recommend at least switching to latest official nightly or to the unofficial builds linked somewhere within the last pages.

-> Then only recovery-Lanchon-IsoRec-TWRP-2.8.7.0-20160113-i9100-(by-arnab).zip + CM12.1 Nightly are needed to be flashed, as all newer nightlies include freeze fix and IsoRec support. Though kernel-Lanchon-TRIM-IsoRec-20160206-cm-12.1-i9100.zip still is needed if you want TRIM support and then needs to be flashed after the nightly. (also each time you flash a new nightly)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] the.gangster:
Not neccessarily, as even the unofficial builds meanwhile have the TRIM support included. (reference)

But definitely true for last official CM12.1-20160203-Nightly.

It is highly recommended not to flash the latest available Snapshot, because it has Freeze Bug and some other bugs that have been fixed with the last released Nightly.

12.1 issues

I checked the 12.1 known issues thread and could not find the following issues I have with the 12.1 snapshot:

* Some camera apps freeze randomly (is this the freeze bug fixed in the 12.1 nightlies?)

* Notification sounds play fine when selecting a notification, but when I get a message it plays the notification too fast and quiet and I miss it (ie: notification sound pitch is higher, volume lower, and duration shorter than when playing the preview in the notification sound selector). Anyone run into this and know of a fix?

* Since CM11 I have also had frequent lag/temporary freezes in both Google Navigation and Sygic. Are their latest apps just too resource heavy or is that a CM related issue?

Also, how stable is CM13 compared to the latest CM12.1 nightly?

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] franticfreddy:
Did you re-pit your device?

Its better to have 1 GB for /system and at least 4 GB for /data, also

for future installations of CM13 maybe.

Did you make a clean install?

Its better to wipe /system, /data, /cache, and also wipe dalvik and

the internal emmc. (you need to disable mtp in recovery for wipe emmc)

(remember to backup your files like pictures and so before)

Ofcourse you need to install from external sdcard.

I91001GB_6GB.pit

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Klaerchen:
That's a gold compromise in my opinion.

1 GB system and 6 GB data.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] :
The kernel doesn't really matter. The main thing is making sure you have a working recovery capable of flashing a kitkat/lollipop/marshmallow rom. I always used CWM 6.0.5.1, but whichever you use, you can always install a newer recovery afterwards from this recovery.

The pit file just depends on your usage. If you found space an issue previously on stock partitions, then I would use a 4gb or 6gb data partition. The important thing is to use a pit file with 1GB_xGB.pit, as the first number(1GB) is the system partition and the second number(1GB_4GB.pit for example) is the data partiton

Hi

I am considering to change to this ROM but partitioning (and the fact that the first spare usb connector PCB was DOA - replacement should be on the way) keeps me from doing so. I want to make sure I understand partitioning properly before starting:

-by partitioning all 16GB can be used for whatever purpose?

-system partition - keeps ROM plus system apps - usually gapps - nothing else. Does not need to be any bigger than that? (Well - right now I got 123MB free which looks nice) I guess 1GB would be good for lollipop? (I do not need a whole lot gapps - minimal will do but I don't want to run in any problems)

-data or Titanium backup calls it: Internal - that contains normal installed apps. So I assume if I am tired to move apps to sdcard I want to make this big enough to keep all apps I use plus their data? Where does data of system apps go? Here or to system?

-the rest goes into what titanium backup calls "media" and can be used for anything - like podcasts, music, pictures - just as the external sdcard too?

Did I get that correctly?

I guess for me: 1GB system, 5 or 6GB internal and the rest media would be good since I got some data consuming apps (Chinese dictionary, maps)

Thanks in advance

Daniel

Unofficial and official build really in same condition. It is nice for my daily using.

Cyanogen Recovery from official build do not work with internal SD, so CWM from unofficial is really better. But recovery is needful only for flashing new update, so it is not critical for daily use.
