[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Pj66:
This weekend I decided to explore the world of roms and I must say, I am very impressed with your level of support. I am now running v.2 with the battery mod and its running great!

One question though, where can I find the 3d gallery? Do I need to be running the gingerbread launcher?

Thanks again for your efforts!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] seeARMS:
I cleared up the installation instructions. Added more information, stating to flash JL2 before installing the ROM. I already had it in the FAQ but I guess it's easy to miss.

Thanks!

The 3D gallery can be found in the app drawer. It's basically an improved version of the stock gallery which fixes the various bugs (mostly including battery life...) that the stock gallery had.

It replaces the stock gallery, so it'll be under the label "Gallery" in the app drawer.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] yiannisthegreek:
seeARMS...

What is the stock theme exactly? Does it contain anything that my current nonthemed version of your theme doesn't have?

Sorry if this is a dumb question...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] seeARMS:
Nope, its the exact theme you're running now. I uploaded it in case anyone running a theme doesn't like it and wants to flash back to stock.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] issxd02:
hey seearms! First of all Awsome Rom, also Does this rom have camera hack?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] turokk:
Awesome thanks buddy, I didn't end up flashing to the gingermix yet, since I saw there was some issues. I'll wait for the final version this week.

Keep up the good work, can't wait for the final and the next version of the rom.

P.S: let me know if you need any input for the battery indicator, I found 3 that a lot of people like/prefer, that you could include if you add an option to pick what battery indicator you want when you install the rom.

I'm probably going to flash this rom today after work.

I keep having the 'wacky back-button' problem from this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=869492

and I can't apply the fix on Darky's rom. Hopefully I can apply it with this rom since it's JL2 based.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] yiannisthegreek:
Hey seeARMS,

Do you think you could work on porting this theme over? It is "Gingerblue".

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=877306

The original dev (Zeubug) says that it is not being supported anymore so maybe you could port / take it over?

PS... Can I try to overclock the kernal with setCPUwithout using the lagfix? :confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bossman74:
My phone doesn't auto-rotate anymore, I've checked in the display settings and it's enabled, what could be causing this ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dmutpp:
I think gingerblue would be nice also
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] turokk:
I'll confirm this problem, I have "auto-rotate" enabled from the slide down menu (taskbar) and my screen is not rotating at all. Enabled/disabled a couple of times and no dice.

Looks like a possible bug?

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] delly47:
so will this rom decrease the chances of internal sd failure? has no one found out how to recover from the interal sd card failure?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bossman74:
Turns out the configuration of the Accelerometer is corrupted (don't know if it's rom related).

Here's what I did to fix it:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10010421&postcount=13

Just follow the instructions and you should be good too.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] yiannisthegreek:
My screen rotates very well still so I dont know if it is a ROM bug persay... Could it be device specific or being caused by an app that you guys may have in common?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] seeARMS:
Time for a long post...

Not yet. I tried directly installing the camera hack (without porting) but it wouldn't open - just FC'd on me. It's because the modded camera is based on JPY, not JL2. I found instructions on how to perform the mod myself so I'll be trying that, and including it in the ROM if successful.

Sure, some input on any themes/batterys you have in mind would be great. I'd eventually like a large selection of themes that people would be able to choose from, so if you have any ideas, let me know.

Gingermix was the first theme I've basically ever worked on, so it's probably gonna take a while to get a ton of themes ported over. I was never that much of a theme guy. :P

Noted - I'll add it to the list of things to do. :)

Yep, the lagfix and overclocking are two separate things, so you're able to do them independant of eachother.

My phone auto-rotates fine, so I don't think it's a bug involving the ROM. Try the accelerometer fix posted above and let me know how it goes.

Read the FAQ involving JL2, that should answer your questions.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bossman74:
Not saying it's the rom, I've had the same set of apps for a while, and it's the first time I've experienced this kind of problem. I had Darky's rom before and some of his users have the same problem too.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] yiannisthegreek:
Hmmmm... Well truth be told, this is the first rom Ive ever flashed so I really dont have the experience to say for sure. Weird how u had the same problem on Darkys rom too... Did you install the WIPE or NO WIPE version of this rom?

Perhaps you need to wipe the cache and Dalvik cache? Just a guess... :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bossman74:
I didn't have the problem with Darky's rom, but I like seeARM'S alot more, I installed the WIPE version, let me say again that I don't think it's rom related though.

The problem is fixed now with the instructions I posted.

I'm still pretty green in Android, what does the Dalvik cache contain anyway ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] turokk:
I'm not a big theme guy either.. I mean I like one or two.. but overall it's not do or die for me. I mean I guess I could wait for gingerbread to be released on our phones then there would be no need for themes.. but who knows when that will be released for our phones.

UPDATE: I was messing with my phone and enabled/disabled auto rotation and all of a sudden it started working again. Not sure what's up, but I will try the link that was posted earlier to fix the accelerometer issue.

WEIRDNESS or I'm really a newb: So I picked up my phone and by accident quickly double tapped the power button on my phone and it appears as if that powered the phone right off. Is that normal.. I know this has nothing to do with this rom, but just curious if any of you less green android users have any input on this. Then I just powered the phone back on booted up etc..

-Turok
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] seeARMS:
The Dalvik Cache is Android's virtual machine. When your phone boots, the Dalvik VM looks through all your applications and converts them into an optimized and compacted .dex format, which is then loaded when the application is run. This is why, when installing a new ROM, it takes a long time to boot up the first time.

That's odd... Never seen that happen before. I can't recreate it, either. Let me know if it happens again, I'd be interested to find out why.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] grokon:
Just upgrade from Stock JL2 to seeArms.

I used non-wipe version as I was already running JL2 but had many FC. So i wipe data manually. no more FC.

Everything looks to run fine except that it was not rooted. I had to use SuperOneClick and reinstall busybox...(SU was there?!) anyway it is ok now.

Had no issue with auto-rotate screen (for those that may interest)

Restoring my apps for now... let's see how it run after that...

My wish lists:

Include Titanium backup (for restore purpose)

Extended power-menu (already in your "to do")

battery mod with %

Remove Startup-Shutdown sounds

My "Nice to have" list :

Android Character battery mod

Changing bootanimation
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] grokon:
Just notice that Swype is just in English... no french canadian...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] seeARMS:
I fixed it in v0.3 and said it'd be included when that's released. I could upload a multi-language Swype which you'd be able to flash from CWM recovery if you want.

Also, did root really not work? I've had a few reports of it not working but it really should. I've never encountered any problems with it.

And I noted your wish list. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bossman74:
That would be awesome !
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] yiannisthegreek:
Dumb question... How do you use set cpu exactly? I dont want to mess up my sgs.

I tried it but Im not sure if it was done right so I killed it.

If anyone cares to explain it to me I would be willing to listen...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kLuMzi:
Hi seeARMS,

Your JPY was my very first rom and I loved it! and now Im back to your JL2 rom :D

Here's what i've flashed to my i9000M:

a. seeARMS v2 JPY

b. Darky's 8.0

c. Darky's 8.0 + speedmood K12 + JL2 Modem (best for battery, lasts 2 days w/o charging)

d. seeARMS v2 JL2

i find your ROM much faster/smoother than Darky's but i have problem with the battery life.. it barely hold for a day and i have to charge the phone on my drive home from work.

I only have few apps installed (facebook, vignette, pingchat, yahoo messenger and beautiful widgets). Is there a way to make the battery last longer?

thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] trdcameleon:
I will like to have a swype French Canadian patch if it's easy and possible! Also, removing the start and close sound it's a very good idea!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] grokon:
It would be nice! If you could post it...

I notice that it was not rooted when I ran titanium backup... I notice that busybox was not there, so installed it...still not working...then rooted with super one click...

everything got fine !

I may add that it run pretty smooth for now..will see about high battery usage that some noticed...looks ok so far!

Nice rom but

Hi everybody. this rom is nice and thanks to seeARMS. Eveything works well. But i am encountering a weird problem. If somebody calls me they redirect to message centre. However if i reboot the phone, it stays normal for 5-6 hours and do it again. I am using fido. Any ideas please?:confused:

Sorry for my bad English.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hakkers420:
how/which stock rom and kernel should i flash back too ... i need to do this to try and get my touch buttons working again?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] seeARMS:
Just open up the app, grant it root permissions, and drag the "Max" clock speed to 1.2GHz. (I don't have the app on my phone atm so I don't know the exact wording). Leave the scaling to conservative, and don't touch "Set on Boot" until you know you have a stable clock you like.

I'll look into the battery problem. I'll try a few different kernel combinations and bugfixes and hopefully come up with a solution.

No idea, sorry, I've never heard of anything remotely close to that problem. Definitely not a ROM problem, so you'll probably get more luck posting in Q&A.

Your touch buttons aren't working? Try flashing to stock JL2 I guess.. I don't see how that'd fix it. Why aren't they working? Something cause them to stop working?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hakkers420:
they went glitchy on me so i tried this

"Originally Posted by BlackDino View Post

Ok, goto your dialer and type the following:

*#*#2663#*#*

Then click Touch key FW update."

and that messed it up and now they dont work at all ..some1 said flashing back to stock and redoing that process got them working again.

do i just download jl2 from samfirmware and flash with odin??

if so what version of odin should i use and what setting should i select?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] seeARMS:
Use the latest version of Odin (1.7), and put the JL2 ROM in PDA and leave everything else blank. Leave repartition unchecked.

For more detailed instructions, see here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=853950
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hakkers420:
thanks all done theyre now working again
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] seeARMS:
Added multi language Swype. Download in Addons and install from recovery.

Also, to those talking about battery issues, the newer versions of the kernel have a handful of tweaks aimed at improving battery.. hopefully it'll eliminate some of the issues you're having.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] trdcameleon:
If we flash back to stock JL2.. do we need to remove LagFix, tweaks and root before flashing with odin?

I don't want to flash it back because i love this ROM, but simply by curiosity
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] seeARMS:
You only have to remove the lagfix; that's it. If you're flashing any ROM, really the only requirement is disabling the lagfix before flashing.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zeroculture:
Did you flash with full battery? I can't speak for seeARMS ROM as I'm not using it, but I had the same problem with Darky's, as have a lot of others. The fix was simple.

Use the phone until it dies.

Fully charge the phone with it powered off.

Reset Battery stats with SGS Tools.

Restart, and then use the phone again until it dies.

Repeat step two.

Done.

I went from killing a charge in less than a day to having minimum two days charge with moderate use. I did the above twice just in case. :)

Ignore this if it is unrelated. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bossman74:
Thanks for the upload seeARMS, but the french keyboard included is AZERTY type, the french Canadian one is standard QWERTY.

We didn't mention it before sorry :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] casperr:
With Wifi off, the battery is awesome, real good. But with it ON, even if not used, the battery drains pretty fast :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] turokk:
That happens with most wifi devices, iphones, itouchs, psp Wifi will drain any hand held device/phones battery even if your not using wifi, because it's constantly sending out a signal or search for hotspot/connections.

This I think is normal drain on the battery if you have wifi enabled. Although I keep mine enabled while I"m at work and then when I get home (I turn it off when I'm driving home) and I didn't really have to charge my phone until 1am last night.. I had 25% left but I didn't want to risk my phone dying overnight.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] turokk:
Has anyone played with the boot screen using the UOT Kitchen and this rom? I've sucessfully changed the batter indicator several times now, but just the battery indicator and no boot logo/animiation. Lastnight I decided to try the android robot with the matrix background animated.. and now I have a blank screen after the "I9000M" boot up screen.. no samsung with sound boot screen. I thought I bricked my phone but after a min it loads the lockscreen.

I know this thread is more about the rom then modying the boot screen etc.. anyone know how I can get back the sammy logo or get the boot animation working. I used the framework-res.apk to cook the files in which are in system/media.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] casperr:
You dont understand, I did not indicate on my post that I have the same problem on the stock rom, even with WIFI enabled. I never turn off wifi on my iphones and android phones. I will try to drain the battery a couple of times to see if that will improve
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pr0cs:
I installed this ROM last night.

First few times I tried to boot it would fail after the boot logo and the phone would go into a vibrate loop, never getting to a lock screen. I suspect it was related to changing the device from RFS->ext4. I was flashing the wipe version with factory reset.

I eventually got the phone loaded and proceeded to apply the touch of ginger theme but the theme seems pretty messed up to me, sub-menus are dark-grey on black making them nearly unreadable so I just applied the default theme with circle mod which while a bit boring is usable.

Battery life does not seem very good but I didn't reset my stats so I'll likely do that later.

I've gotten a few FC (android keyboard, soundhound) but nothing terrifying yet.

Issues:

- can't seem to mount system as /rw. Launching SGS toolbox gives a message: system remount not supported on this device. There doesn't appear to be any way for me to add my own ringtones.

Things I'd like:

- a real theme, I know seeARMs isn't big on theming but I think it gives each rom some sort of 'flavor'

- extended power menu with boot to CWM/Recovery

- 'spare parts' included

- SGS Info and SGS Toolbox are installed but isn't there another one 'SGS Tool' that could be included
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] the drm:
I believe this is because wifi is not entering sleep mode when the screen goes black, even if you have it set to do so.

If you ping your phone and put it to sleep, you'll notice it continues to respond..

This happened to me on stock too, but I'm unable to find a fix.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] turokk:
Hey seeARMS,

Will v0.3 contain a fix for the usb debug mode getting turned on all the time. I've had it turn on 3 times this morning already :) and this is just me playing with my phone connecting to my PC etc.. and all 3 times.. I connected it debug mode was enabled. It's more of an annoying bug then anything else.

So since.. I have time to mess with my phone at work lol :)

I was playing with the boot animation and battery indicators, and I think I found the bug (maybe?). Everytime I go into CWM to flash my phone.. with a new batt indicator or attempting to get rid of the black screen boot up and get an animated boot screen working. My phone is already in debug mode, when my phone finishes booting. I just rebooted after updating the batt indicator and it was already in debug mode.

So could CWM be the issue? Just tossing out ideas.. since I really want to help you fix this.. or determine if its a rom bug or a CWM bug of some sort.

- Turok
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] seeARMS:
Ah, I just assumed the French Swype was the same as the French Canadian one, sorry. I've tried searching, but I can't find a Swype .apk (v2.0) that actually includes the French Canadian keyboard. Do you know of any stock ROM (ie stock JL2 perhaps?) or custom ROM that includes this?

An alternative option: is the French Canadian keyboard identical to the English QWERTY keyboard? I'd probably be able to just copy the QWERTY one and replace the French keyboard with this, so you'd have the french dictionary + the English QWERTY keyboard.

Ouch, seems like you had quite a rough time installing the ROM... You shouldn't encounter any errors after installation. Did you initially use the Wipe version, and still encountered errors?

The touch of ginger theme you're talking about - are you referring to the theme I uploaded in the Addons section in my first few posts? The text should be fine (except for a few cases, such as in the browser -> More).

I can mount System as /rw fine... It's odd that you're having an issue with that. Try downloading Super Manager, going to File Manager, enabling root access in Settings, then browsing to System. It should give you a prompt about remounting it as rw, and you'll be able to copy your ringtones here.

-I'll be including a Gingerbread theme in future releases as soon as I get it completely bug free. (Also, when I said I wasn't big on themes I just meant I've never edited/ported them before - I do prefer custom themes to the stock one. :P)

-Extended power menu is quite a bit of code, so I'll get that included in future releases as well, soon as I have time.

-I'll include spare parts, SGS Info, and a few other apps (in /data/app - easily uninstallable/updatable) in the next version

I'll see what I can do.. I don't really know what's causing this bug.

It isn't really that important, because it's basically the same as mass storage mode (but gives you a bit more functionality). You can still mount your SD cards on your computer and read 'em fine.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ordio:
Hey seeARMS,

I'm looking forward to using your rom as I just got my i9000m back last night (took 5 weeks after my internal sd card died).

I was about to flash your v0.2, and installed the latest Super Optimized Kernel 4_6_8.

Then I read that your rom is for 4_6_4.

Just wanted to make sure and see if your v0.2 would still work with 4_6_8.

Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] seeARMS:
Yep, it'll work fine. The kernel updates are getting released quite quickly, and I don't want to release a new version with only a kernel update included. (v0.3, which should be released soon, includes the new kernel along with a few bugfixes).

Install my ROM first then install SOK 4_6_8 on top of it... Installing the kernel first then my ROM after will overwrite the kernel to the version included in my ROM (4.6.4).

Will v0.3 include kernel 4.6.8?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ordio:
Ahh ok that makes sense.

Do I also need to install the addons? Or are they optional ? JL2 Stock lockscreen and jk4 modem?

Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pr0cs:
Yeah I learned my lesson a while back, I almost always use the 'wipe version' when going from one rom flavor to another (same flavor I'll try and use no-wipe).

I'm pretty sure my problems were around setting the lagfix as the rom initially booted fine but turning on the lagfix it wouldn't boot so I had to reflash. I suspect I didn't pay enough attention after selecting the lagfix and not selecting backup/convert option after the lagfix was triggered.

yeah I'm talking about browser->more. a number of apps use secondary menus (like browser->more making them difficult / impossible to read). The theme is close, looks good but the dark menu kills it.

I'll give it a try, never heard of that app so something new is always fun :D

Thanks for evaluating my other suggestions.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bossman74:
JL2 Stock has the french-Canadian keyboard included. And I think that it's identical to the US-English keyboard, so coping it with the french dictionary could work too.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Aqua1ung:
Any estimates on how soon 0.3 will be out?:o
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] seeARMS:
Yep.

They're optional. The modem is just a different kind of modem which you can test if you're getting bad GPS. The JL2 stock lockscreen is the glass lockscreen for those who don't like the AOSP lockscreen included (check the screenshots).

If the JL2 stock ROM has it that's perfect, I already have a dump of it so I'll (hopefully...) be able to easily extract it and include it.

Should be out within a few days I'd hope. I'm gonna be busier due to school within the next week so I'd like to get it sorted out before then.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] grokon:
Would you, by the time you release v.0.3, to just update the swype addon so that the french canadian could be ok?
