I'm on today's Nightly (0717), using OpenStreetMaps and null G00gle stuff on the phone...

also no FasterGPS or the like. GPS works just fine, fixing almost instantly (few seconds delay)

and as precise and accurate as can be.

[MENTION=7565643]davy0104[/MENTION], i'm interested going google free. Could you point out, or provide some tutorial to start?

thanks
[Galaxy S II Android Development] davy0104:
Well, I'm far away of being an expert, but the easiest way would surely be

to perform a full wipe and then to install only CM, e. g. Simply do NOT install Gapps.

Use a clean external storage and get along with apps from other providers than PlayStore.

And – most important, as in other cases as well – make a backup of your running system.

In the event you realise it doesn't work without G00gle for you.

Be happy without G00gle! So am I. Greetings, Davy

Yes, you are probably getting the gps-lock wakelock issue that some of us are experiencing (you can see this if you install Wakelock detector and enable monitoring of System items under settings and look at Kernel Wakelocks). If you use a "GPS Test" app from the playstore, you will probably see that you are not getting any GPS satellite's. If you Disable Mobile Data and reboot your phone, you should fine that as long as you leave the Mobile Data turned off, you can get GPS satellite's but if you turn Mobile Data on, then Google Play Services (also GPS acronym) causes some sort of wake-lock issue and locks up the GPS satellite (its a bug on Google Play Services 9.2.56, if you roll back to 9.0.83 or earlier the bug doesn't happen).

But as mentioned by some others, they have 9.2.56 and don't have the issue. At the moment, I've gone back to Google Play Services 8.7.03 (the version before 9.0.83) as I find the battery drain is much better and my phone enters Deep Sleep more often and the GPS satellite lock works fine.

Static navigation

The "official" explanation (from the "SiRF Binary Protocol Reference Manual", "GSD4e OSP Manual (CS-129291-DC-9).pdf") is:

I've been using GPS for a few years, and I got used to following behaviour: if the gps receiver stays stationary, the position reported by the gps chip will have a kind of "flutter" i.e. the reported position changes every time, only by a little, but there's always an "apparent" movement. (I'm guessing that this is down to dynamic changes in the atmosphere between my receiver and the satellites, but the cause is not important.) If I move the receiver by just one metre, the positions reported by the receiver will continue to flutter, but they will flutter around the new (real) position of the receiver.

When I first started using my i9100, I noticed that when the phone stopped moving, the positions reported by the gps chip were identical i.e. the flutter disappeared. That's great until you realise that of course there must be a threshold distance/speed that you need to exceed before the receiver will start reporting movement. For me, this makes the gps receiver unusable (I don't geo-cache, but geo-cachers often have the same complaint).

The only other thing that we need is to understand whether "Static navigation enabled" is "flutter enabled" (reported movement is non-zero) or "flutter disabled" (reported movement is 0). My opinion today (!) is that "Static navigation enabled" is "flutter enabled" (reported movement is non-zero). By my definitions (which may not be correct), both stock and this cm13 have static navigation disabled, and that I need to enable static navigation for the gps receiver to be usable. (Disclaimer: I might change my definitions once I've done more research on this subject!)

Hi all. I'm currently trying a clean flash of 20160717, and I'm getting lots of problems with the camera such as the image not appearing, the image freezing, and sometimes wierd psychedelic-coloured glitches in the image itself.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Andrea900:
Is it supposed to be "normal"?

I've downgraded GPS to 9.0.84, but the battery drain still persists...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] p3dboard:
There's still something more to this battery drain issue. Even on Google Play services 8.7.03, the version before 9.0.83/84, i also get the gps-lock wakelock still and large amounts of Android Os keep awake time in the battery stats for Android. The main issue that going back to previous versions seems to have fixed for me is the GPS (satellites) still work with mobile data. Where as 9.2.56 it's broken unless i boot my phone with mobile data turned off and keep it off. Which means that i have to use an offline navigation app, or download a section of Google maps to work offline
[Galaxy S II Android Development] the.gangster:
Still no massive battery drain here.

Sometimes it even frightens me with runtimes of almost 24h.

No big usage on such days for sure.

But I am on mobile radio 24x7, no optimizations, current GApps (incl. Play store).
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Andrea900:
Well, this is impressive. :eek:

Please community, can you help us to find the issue? What we have to share with you (logs, screenshots, list of apps installed)?

EDIT: [MENTION=6560258]the.gangster[/MENTION], which theme are you using right now?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] the.gangster:
[MENTION=6592513]Andrea900[/MENTION]

I am still on:

- "dark material / blacked out" theme.

- Nightly 20160706

- OpenGApps Full 20160706 (with some exclusions)

But the discussion of the draining battery was already here, when I updated to above Nightly&GApps (and the ones before). I posted my history before.

- Settings: GPS (high accuracy), BT, Mobile Data is always activated. In location scanning I disabled scanning for WLAN and Bluetooth though.

Other than that I did not mess with "optimizations", e.g. as I can still remember, disabling a google component's location access led to exassive wakelooks back on CM11 at some point (if I remember right in 11/2014).

- No greenify, no xposed

and

- no WhatsApp, no Facebook, no Pokemon Go :)

Above run-time as I wrote is not typical as I usually have more Screen-On-Time and/or BLN enabled, but there were no massive wakelocks yet (when BLN is off).

EDIT:

- I also turned "Location History" off.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] clevergirl:
I am a bit confused now that some have brought up google play. i don't understand why it is supposedly involved in all this. Especially after I said I don't have play services installed.

If I understood correctly there are some partitions that would have been left untouched by the cyanogenmod installer? Perhaps there's an easy way to ssh in check out the layout, debug everything more carefully, just in case the guy who had this phone before me hasn't cleanly uninstalled gapps, google play, or whatever else there might be on these partitions.

The radio firmware is also seperate from cyanogenmod version? where do i check this and what values should I be seeing?

FreezeFix was an issue in CM12.1 and got fixed there in later nightlies.

Meanwhile even more again.

The evil commit that is responsible for that has obviously not been reverted yet.

So better don't flash current nightlies as of 20160722 until that got fixed...

...at least if you want to clean-flash (as setup-wizard breaks) or have encrypted (you will have problems to enter alphanumeric passwords).

EDIT: FIXED WITH NIGHTLY-20160724. SO ONLY NIGHTLIES 20160722 AND 20160723 ARE AFFECTED.

International roaming

Hello,

I am using nightly CM13 (not the latest) on my s2 in combination with Vodafone NL, somehow I cannot activate my packet data while roaming in Belgium and Germany.

I tried to copy the Vodafone APN settings from my note 4.

Hi Guy's,

i figured out if i switched to 2g data instead of 3g / h+ data modes i get a gps satellite lock, but if i leave 3g data on, then i don't get a gps satellite lock. This seems to be at the heart of my gps-lock wakelock on mobile data.

When i run an app named getril, that checks the modem and baseband pair, it says my Ril is unknown. Is this because cm13 has a newer Ril library than stock Samsung Android 4.1.2? Or do you guys get matching Ril and Modem?

I found on the One plus forum that they also have this issue, gps satellite lock working on 2g data, but not 3g. Anyone seen this issue before and know of a fix?

Edit: Could be a Vodafone Australia issue - http://community.vodafone.com.au/t5/Network/GPS-issues/td-p/412484

Call record

I want to ask for your help.

I need a automatic call record, but all have experienced the sound on the other side of the call is too low when the sound of my side is normal!

Has anyone solved this problem low sound on the other side of the call?

Which the application settings are used and to recommend?

Thank you
[Galaxy S II Android Development] viniciusmr:
Call recording for the Galaxy S2 is "not working" ever since 'we moved' from SAMMY-based ROMs.

You can have crystal-clear audio in your call recordings, coming directly from audio driver IF AND ONLY IF you are willing to roll back to a Samsung official rom, or any derivatives, like NeatROM for instance.

Apparently, Samsung never actually released the sources of the drivers, and developers couldn't port it to AOSP or AOKP or any other non-SAMMY based rom.

Unfortunately that means you'll be stuck at android version 4.1.2 if I'm not mistaken, I believe sammy's latest release was around that version.

The 'workaround' that some apps will try to use (which really is the only resource left) is to try to capture the sound via microfone.

While that works alright to hear your own voice, since you're already speaking on the mic, the other party's voice is coming from your speaker and does not goes through/reverb to your mic and that means you basically can't hear a thing from the other party's voice at the call.

To alleviate that you can use Live-Speaker mode when on a call you wish to record. It will be louder, but even then the sound quality will ****ty.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] JudgeDread11:
Maybe you can use"SoundAbout" from the play store. It can reroute the phone Audi channel to an other audio channel. Which you then might be able to record.

Not sure if this will actually work, but worth to have a look at.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Forsquall:
About 12 days ago, a commit moved some of the Samsung Advanced Display into the Live Display / cmhw framework, including control of that mDNIe Mode. However it doesn't actually appear under Live Display yet - at least on the i9100. A workaround for now is to replace AdvancedDisplay.apk in /system/... with an older one (eg. 0711) . It's compatible enough to still work usefully.

I find the default colour saturation levels silly on the i9100. "Natural" is much better looking.

Bluetooth hands-free Jabra jx10
