Any news with Google services keep crashing? Google now is completely unusable.

Tried to reflash gapps using a newer package but still nothing :(
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Draky50110:
We need a new nightly that fix the problem.

Not sure if a commit for next release is present inside.

And don't know when will it be build.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] HutchGuy:
oh that's really bad... I hope he do this as soon as possible
[Galaxy S II Android Development] OrganLoc:
BLN is working perfectly :) Thank you very much!

The battery consumption due to the wakelock is quite high though, how are the chances that we can have BLNWW in the future? Is the code so messed up that it is not worth the effort?

Anyway I am happy about any BLN right now, so thanks again!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] arnab:
Put it in steady...1 mind timeout...u will have gr8 battery... effects draw more battery than steady.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] OrganLoc:
Yes, I have it on steady (actually never changed a default value except enabling it), as battery life is more important to me than effects.

Do you mean 1 minute? But I appreciate BLN so much for the fact that I just need to look at my phone after maybe 20 minutes to quickly check if I missed anything.

If I get you right, I need to look at my phone every minute if it times out after 1 min, or did I understand you wrong?

Thanks!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] arnab:
U can increase the timeout timer to 30 mins if u like...but u don't have to worry...I already reduced the minimum drawable voltage table for cypress capacitive keys...so battery drain should be minimum...but hey bln itself was a myth..getting it working was a gerrit war and college bunk.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] OrganLoc:
Okay, thanks! I have the feeling though that battery drain is because of the wakelock (seems to have the same slope in the battery graph as any wakelock), not the touchkey LED power.

But then I will stick to a timeout for now, thanks :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] the.gangster:
[MENTION=414800]arnab[/MENTION]

regardless of the optional fine tuning (time-out...), an answer to OrganLoc's question would be really appreciated.

Any chances for yet another incredible step towards BLNWW?

Even if I doubt it: Any way to support you in cleaning up the mess without in-depth knowledge to BLN/BLNWW?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] arnab:
K il try to port blmww but not now plz...but rmbr u wud need synapse for that too. But i wont commit on anything.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] OrganLoc:
Wow :) .... :D

Of course you dont commit ;) (You are still a volunteer, which is hopefully obvious to everyone ;) )
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pappy_034:
In build 20160524 I removed lockscreen to none, and trying now to set up lockscreen again but, when I try to go to locksrceen settings in settiings app it crashes. I tried to clear cache but it didn't work.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] arnab:
Look CM guys allowed me to port BLN only for the fact that there are couple of apps out there that can control this feature. They wont allow u to add anything that is not configurable by a standard app. blnww cannot be configured with any present streamlined app. So I aint sure they will permit me to add code for it. Synapse is used for custom kernels. I cant even add code for synapse in cm even if I wanted to. You all asked for BLN. I did that. With blnww the only problem. There is no app to configure it. My only request for all of u guys is to appreciate bln is working and caio allowed me to port this only on the condition that its configurable by app or terminal. I am sorry if I sound rude but I really cant do anything against CM policy.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] alienflorina:
Hmm what's the name of the commit? To know what to look for in the change log
[Galaxy S II Android Development] the.gangster:
Hi arnab,

as I wanted to contribute, I forked your Github to add some changes.

So currently I added the following:

- modified for multi-language support

- added German translation

- added additional 'dimmed' mode for static lights at minimum brightness.

I also commited the changes to my Github already, but as I didn't figure out yet, how to provide the final zip file there, I 'll append this here for now.

You (or anyone else) is invited to check it out.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kokoyot:
Hello there,

First I want to say that I have searched along the web before asking for help :)

I've juste upgdraded my S2 from CM12 to CM13, with all the partitionnung, wipes and son on

Everything works fine BUT the camera :confused:

When I launch the camera there is a message "veuillez insérer une carte SD avant d'utiliser la caméra" (please insert a SD card before using camera)

When I see the "USB and storage settings" I see :

Please help !
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Draky50110:
Made a pull request to add French translation.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ran000:
may28 build - gapps crush still exist
[Galaxy S II Android Development] daniu:
Hi

I guess your camera lacks the permission to access memory (sdcard).

You can change that under settings - apps - your camera app - permissions

Regards

Sent from my x-phone using brain 2.0
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kokoyot:
Hi, thanks for the tip, I've checked : the camera app has all its permissions allowed, including storage :crying:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] arnab:
Unfortunately this won't do u any good...if u put a speed regulator in a fan or brightness regulator in a household bulb and put it in dim mode or reduce the fan speed it will decrease the capacitance but energy consumption will be the same....so how much u try to dim here...it won't work until u have an exclusive voltage controller sysfs interface for the cypress keys like dirty unicorns has...Ur effect will draw more power than steady...so while it's very good that u added a new effect...it's just useless in terms of battery consumption.

And b4 u release any stuff thats development is ongoing by others. plz ask first k.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Dr.Fix:
With 20160528 build I cannot install any apk... Error parsing package.

Installs work from play store. Anyone else?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Draky50110:
Same bug as Google apps crashing : external APK have problems, and as Gapps are flashed beside ROM...

Anyway, 20160528 is still a problem :/
[Galaxy S II Android Development] the.gangster:
So this was not already a real solution as it seems:

CyanogenMod ‏@CyanogenMod 25. Mai Seattle, WA

The fix is already in place and builds will be pulled shortly, but consider staying clear of the 5/25 nightlies. [2/2]

Sounded as if builds after 2016-05-25 should not have the "GApps-Killer-Bug" any longer.

EDIT:

Just read that the issues would yet be solved. That there would no longer be a problem to install APKs with Nightly-20160528 with OpenGapps-20160528.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] arnab:
For all users who wants blnww....I will be releasing my kernel for cm-13.0 within next month. Akash already knows this. Meanwhile Il have to release twrp for n7000...updte my ROM..its a very busy schedule..but meanwhile let my exams finish. They will on june 13th.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Dr.Fix:
Not true, as I wrote a few posts above your with 20160528 still isn't possible to install "custom" apks.

No problems in flashing gapps or installing from play store.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] the.gangster:
I did read that. That was why I edited my post after reading a contrary statement.

I only mirrored what I read in a german forum. Maybe [MENTION=1787079]Sopur[/MENTION] can tell us more, as he wrote it there, that there were no issues with Playstore or installing APKs anymore after installing the quoted versions.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] sajidunia:
Wish you all the best for your exams!!!! AND OFCOURSE thanks for all your efforts.....
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Draky50110:
Do you mean it is solved now ?

What can we do ? Full wipe + fash CM + flash Gapps ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] thearczoro:
I used Delta GApps 05-20 with the latest Nightly 05-28 here and pop-up Google Play Services has stopped always show-up.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] NioxiS:
Hi guys, there is probably someone already asking this question on the thread or somewhere else, and I apologize in advance if that is the case and I'm just asking something that may have already been answered.

I updated to the latest cm 13 nightly through the option in the "about tablet" menu in settings. I had some problems (Flashing gapps because low storage, so I expanded to 1gb, no problems there. Some setup wizard errors, fixed them by doing factory reset and re flashing gapps.) but in the end everything went fine and the device works. My only issue is that I have lost root access. I had CM 12.1 for about 5 months and used "Kingroot" to get root access on that version (worked fine), so I tried it again but it does not work on the Marshmallow version. I just wanted to ask if there is a way to regain root access. Also if someone knows if I lost it because I made a mistake, because if I did I'd like to know so it doesn't happen again.

EDIT: After two minutes of browsing I found out how to enable root on cm 13. Sorry for the useless post.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Draky50110:
In CM13, root is in dev otion (tap 7 times on the build number in "about phone").
[Galaxy S II Android Development] NioxiS:
I figured it out 2 mins after I posted, thank you very much for trying to help tho :)

And sorry that I wasted your time with a stupid question which already had an answer in a huge thread that I somehow missed.. lol.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] alienflorina:
An observation: I dirty flashed 28/5 nightly with 28/5 pico opengapps and had no gapps services error till I flashed xposed.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] the.gangster:
I wanted the dimmed mode for night time, when device is charging anyway but doesn't need to enlight the whole room. So I guess it still makes sense.

Meanwhile I added the following languages and issued a pull request with all the changes to your GitHub to hand over the control back to you.

Hope that's OK for you.

Read your above 'edit' (the last sentence) too late after I already pushed out the current build as v1.2.

Languages: EN, DE, FR, PT

(translations provided by [MENTION=3582785]Draky50110[/MENTION] (FR) and [MENTION=5922579]Top_Fuel[/MENTION] (brazilian PT), so thank you guys)

Flashable ZIP of it is here.

EDIT: Link removed as [MENTION=414800]arnab[/MENTION] is about to merge the changes into his GitHub and republish it then.

Regards

the.gangster
[Galaxy S II Android Development] arnab:
Delete that post of urs Il merge ur pull request into mine....There shouldnt be multiple releases of the same thing. Also takedown the link....whatever modifications u want make a pull request into my github as caio will use my channel as official link. Iam doing this to avoid multiple confusions as I already got 8 pvt as to which one to download...I never said I wont merge any stuff u guys make..Just do a pull request and test it first.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] the.gangster:
I removed the link in my post. And maybe you should do that, too. As you full quoted my post, you reposted the download link.

As I already wrote:

My intension was to support you!

- I forked,

- I implemented the changes (multi-language support, dimmed-mode, 3 additional language implementations)

- I took over two further pull requests for above

- I tested them, setting my phone to different languages

- I made a pull request with all the changes to your GitHub again, commenting that I tested all that.

So just for my understanding, could you tell me, what in your view was wrong in doing so? (you can PM me for that)

Don't get me wrong, a simple 'thank you' would have done. But as it appears to me, you are bothered instead, I just would like to know.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MARCOSOFT:

It was all a misunderstanding ...

hats off !!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] thearczoro:

[Galaxy S II Android Development] tofrost:
i switched from CM12 to CM13 and discovered an annoying fact when using daydream. When activated (while charging), the soft buttons stay lit.. they were off in CM12. They illuminate the whole room which makes this feature useless during night. Can this be fixed?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Dr.Fix:
SOLVED!

In developers options I just enabled and re-disabled adb (usb debugging). This should have fixed something when enabled.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Top_Fuel:
I think it's because of BLN, if you install BLN_MOD by [MENTION=414800]arnab[/MENTION] and Synapse from Play Store you can set the LEDs timeout again.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] kosmasgr:
I confirm that :) BLN mod by arnab works like a charm. Bln and led timeout work now
[Galaxy S II Android Development] OT-Xtreme:
iv flashed the new BLN MOD then install Synapse from play store, grant root then iv got those errors:

what to do
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kosmasgr:
Which rom ? Also which selinux mode ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] arnab:
Selinux is not a factor.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] OT-Xtreme:
its xosp official for i9100 (cm13 based) and selinux is permissive as iv flashed the custom kernel Graphite uber 6 we had here
[Galaxy S II Android Development] FiSh-MoB:
BLN and the mod from arnab are only working with default kernel. So dont flash any custom kernel!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kosmasgr:
you need stock kernel dude :)

As we are waiting a new kernel by arnab , without Q Galaxy S2 is a legendary device :P
[Galaxy S II Android Development] OT-Xtreme:
oh tnx didn't know it's kernel specific. il switch and check
[Galaxy S II Android Development] GreekDragon:
I didn't add BLN support on XOSP yet.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] OT-Xtreme:
ok lets us know when you do, it will be great , tnx

I am thinking about an upgrade from lysergic acids cm12 to cm13.

Can anybody say which build was stable or did not have annoying bugs? And can anybody upload some screenshots about battery (SOT)?

This is Spaaartaaaaa!!!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Andrea900:
Just wait for a snapshot build.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] the.gangster:
LOL.

Yes, wait for that. You'll see that one got published, if within 5 days yet another 1000 posts bombed this thread.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Dr.Fix:
Battery consumption is getting worse and worse each build... battery is new:

Edit: the time to write this post, upload an image and battery dropped to 23%. Same behavior with different batteries.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Boolian:
You could type "Stable build" into the search bar - it's a kinda magic.:rolleyes:

After that, you decide. I think the consensus was around March/early April. But it's pretty much a subjective thing.

There are a couple of links to earlier nightlies in previous posts.

As for SOT... best of luck with that! :laugh:

I dunno. You'll get whatever you got with CM12 if you didn't run madly tweaked custom kernels.

IMHO 'Doze' feature gives you longer down time with less idle drain, but CM13 actively drains a little more than CM12 during uptime. Not hugely, but noticeable.

Others may disagree.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] makix13:
Hi all,

GPS question, hope it's not an off-topic. Anyone knows anything about "static navigation" in our s2.

It seems Samsung disable this feature of our GPS chipset.

Googling around about this feature seems enhance reception, for JB and ICS there was a tool but it's discontinued , could this solve some issues when navigation and lost GPS signal each 5 secs. with Maps ?

Goodnight everyone

S2 Cyanogenmod 6.0.1 [official nightly] - arnab isorec twrp - Xposed [official framework]
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Boolian:
That's grim.

I test with a 4/5 year old Samsung OEM batteries:laugh:

On a bad day, browsing continuous (Opera) I will see a drop of 1% per minute - That would still give me an hour on an ancient battery! (I'm back to the 10th March build though)

All apps are 'Battery optimised, battery saver active at 15% and all non essential apps are 'Greenified'

I run 'Twilight' and also manually set my display brightness to the minimum I need, even through the day.

I don't use 'Adaptive Brightness'

Although it worked when I tried it (and the contrast in bright sunlight is good) I've turned it off. I'm used to years of manual brightness control + Twilight profiles.

I believe users of F.lux/CF Lumen etc. report battery drain. I wonder if the Adaptive Brightness in CM13 might also be a problem if you use it? (Twilight uses overlays, works different)

I'd expect to push 1.5 hr on the ancient battery with general use. Double that at least on a new battery!

So either there is a problem with the new builds or your batteries are terrible quality.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kokoyot:
Hello, I still have the problem, any other idea please ?

I've checked the permissions for the camera app : evrything is allowed, including storage access.

The problem should be somewhere around the SD card, rather than the camera app.

But I don't know what to do more than formating the SD card ???

Thanks :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] chrisXL:
No issue flashing CM13 + nanogapps (both 29 build). Format system + wipe cache/dalvik only (no wipe data)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Draky50110:
Forgot to say but yes, no problem after full wipe / reinstall.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Gent':
Will the files be deleted if i format the system?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Draky50110:
Yes.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] androidnr1:
Hi. I have a small problem. Downloaded the latest nightly from 2016-05-30 11:53:34 ( https://download.cyanogenmod.org/get/jenkins/163721/cm-13.0-20160530-NIGHTLY-i9100.zip )

Then gapps from opengapps.com (arm, 6.0, nano) and saved both on the phone, booted into recovery(think it's called that :) and installed cm13 and it went well. Installing gapps though gave an error saying not enough space and error code 70.

Started the phone and deleted the 2 files, then downloaded the pico version of gapps and same thing happened. 287mb of 1.97gb was used on the "system" partition and 0.97gb of 11,49gb was used on the other.

Tried to wipe cache and do a full factory reset and the same problem remained.

Not unlikely that i'm doing something wrong because i'm not that good with flashing roms and whatnot. :)

Am i doing something wrong or maybe missed something? I read a post maybe in this thread that someone installed the nano version without any problems, so it should work one would think.

Edit: Just looked around in the phone settings and from what i recalled i had "SuperSU" or "Superuser" or something like that in there at the bottom. I'm guessing that means i was rooted? Anyway, now when i looked it wasn't there. That does mean it's not rooted and that's what causing the error to install gapps? (i had cm 10.1/4.4.4 before)

If this is the problem, how do i fix it? (like i said, not very good at this :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] the.gangster:
[MENTION=4833450]androidnr1[/MENTION]

Looks like you are also not that good at searching here.

:)

Error 70 of GApps means there is no space in system partition. It would even have told you in the log that the installer writes.

Gladfully, this question has been asked like 200 times already, so that gsstudios started to write down everything that is needed here

So, read that (at very least the top 4 posts), maybe read them even twice and you'll surely get on your way.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Boolian:
For those interested in SOT and my ancient batteries: this one is a tired old original Samsung dated . 2012.05.15

Over an hour of surfing and general use. I'd have expected 2hrs+ at least today (But I'm too busy to post a full discharge cycle) On a new battery I expect much more!

Manual brightness at 50% - No Adaptive brightness, no kernel tweaks, no tricks. Just 'Greenify' and all apps except 'Play Services' are battery optimised.

All data was on wifi and location services are off.

Build is 10th March.

If you are having high battery drain on CM13 then you have a serious problem that needs investigating!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] chrisXL:
Which files you mean?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] androidnr1:
Thanks!

After reading that and clicking to another thread, another page, and then the thread that had been closed so went to the github page and read all that and it didn't seem to complicated(like i said, i'm not good at this) and thought it was just a zip-file you downloaded but the downloads went to https://www.androidfilehost.com which was down.

It seemes this is way too complicated for me, gonna try and search for how to install the latest official firmware. :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dumdidum123:
Is there no widget or option for the quick settings menu to switch between 2G and 2G/3G?

On CM 10.1 it was perfect. Unfortunately I can't find an option like this, and the apps a I found, only open the settings but don't change the network mode itself.

Any solution?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] cherryb8844:
Ya no quick tile for switching Network I just long press on Network indicator icon in quick setting and then switch my preferred network
[Galaxy S II Android Development] the.gangster:
I think it's not that complicated, as you already managed to install CM13.

So if you now use that method for installing an IsoRec Recovery you are prepared to Repit (optionally without data-loss, but if you wiped before already, choosing the config to wipe again will be faster) already. After that you are good to go already.

So doesn't sound very complicated to me....

But it's your decision. Can't assess your skills.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jojobg:
Battery life is depending on the situation:

1. Working CM13 without gaps FC ( 28.05 =< + wipe ) original battery on 3 years with health status good : 6h +

2. Not working CM13 with gaps FC ( if you were quick and lucky and downloaded 25.05, 24 <> 28 ) same original battery less than 20% used for full day. It seems not working GAPS is leaving the phone working as dummy phone.

3. If you have less than 5-6 hours, check your battery stats for leaking application ( last week I caught "Outlook" to have high CPU and battery usage ).
