You don't need to be registered but you shouldn't be using these releases unless you are prepared for problems and trying to solve them.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kobik77:
Yeah, I can see that after reboot my phone connected to the cell network.

But the signal strength freeze is there also.

It's there in the statusbar and it's there in the about-> status.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
info on what that setting does

Skype is known to be / cause unstable environments :p
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] eric_pwb:
hmmm... odd, no issues whatsoever with that here, with either the status bar indicator or in about-> status.

The only two new issues I see coming from 25/02 to 04/03 is:

Issue charging battery. When charger is connected (tried two, and usb) it charges for about 5 minutes then stops and starts discharging:confused:

OS is no longer killing tasks the same, after I closed GPS status(with back button) it continued to poll sensors for hours before I caught it. Dialer does it as well. (I resolved this by enabling long back press to kill app in applications -> development)

Edit: For those with issues with battery after the 04.03 update, if you followed recommendations you should have a nandroid backup of whatever you had previous to that, restoring back mine, fixed ALL my issues.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hovnovice:
I tried to go to build.prop as you suggested, but I get either :'no action available" or' application not avaialble" Any help please , i really like to have skype working and I don't want to leave CM7 for a different rom ...thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] darkalchemist:
Look for SGS Tools in the market, it will let you edit the build.prop. You will need to reboot once it's done for it to take effect though.

On another note, seems like it might be the 2.3.3 update that's actually causing all the battery drain problems... http://phandroid.com/2011/03/04/android-2-3-3-gingerbread-update-killing-nexus-one-battery-life/
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] joeshmoe08:
Not really, the real battery drainer now is some sensors and debug lod that is on for the cm7 team. I f you read the comments on the page you linked the majority of them say there is no difference or that it got better so its just some isolated flashing problems for some, not 2.3.3 fault.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] paratox:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] robbiev80:
Just confirmed that the wiimote DOES work with n64oid and other emulators.

I installed "Wiimote controller" by C.C.P. Cre@ions.

It never did for me with the stock rom.

Also, has anybody had this issue:

I've taken a number of pictures with the camera app and they don't always show up in the Gallery app. I have to use file manager to see them...Not a huge deal but still a little annoying.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ci3hu1:
Finally!!! Someone with a gallery problem just like me. What i did to fix it was delete all data on my internal sd card via setting. And since then whenever i copy a picture to my internal sd card it show up in the gallery.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Adevem:

Is there a way to get a backup of the data (Titanium backup, mybackup..), to work with 2.2.1?

I tried last time with titanium backup and it didnt work.. it didnt restore the data :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mrruin:
titanium worked just fine for me restoring ONLY Apps+app data.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] chaoszero112:
Correct, probably will have to use Rescan Media Root as it seems the OS doesn't accept the rescan command from the non-root version.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] titooo7:
In my honest opinion if we don’t use some missing features like the radio, we don’t mind to have a half working camera and some other minor bugs, this rom can be used daily.

Now I got a question: being realistic, are real chances to have CM7 for SGS into the mainline?

I have read several times that the problem is the sources, I guess in few weeks Samsung will release the sources of the kernel, but if I’m not wrong that won’t be enough to solve the current bugs? Am I wrong? I hope so, otherwise the future doesn’t look optimistic…
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kobik77:
I had FC madness of google services since updating to the latest version.

Only data wipe got me out of it.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] vukandric:
Hey guys,

I have problem with battery drain. I entered top in emulator and I can see that system\vendor\bin\gpsd is taking a lot of %cpu. Also in spareparts I can see that exactly that process is preventing my phone to sleep, so after about 5h I had battery drop from 62 to 24. Does anyone knows how to kill this process, I tried searching but didn't found anything. Thanks in advance.

P.S. I don't think I had this process after flashing CM7, maybe it is kernel or some app related?

EDIT: Seems to be kernel related because I tried flashing another kernel and that process is gone, but with that other kernel I am stuck at obtaining ip adress. :D Don't know what to do now...

I'm having battery charging issues with the 04/03 update.. The battery stops charging after a few minutes.. Anyone else with the same issue?

EDIT: NVM, found out that the battery doesn't charge when the phone temp is high.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sxi200:
Correct. It usually stops around 48 degrees. In stock it is set higher at about 59 or so. A good app to monitor this is circular battery indicator. It shows an overheat message in the notification drop down list.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] leoon:
you tried to restore from CM7 to 2.2.1??
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hovnovice:
Skype WORKS finally with your patch...Thank you so much !
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] melorib:
I just realised another improvement, NO SDcard SCANNING... :cool:

It was a pain to wait for those never ending scans all the time...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sxi200:
Well done and thank you. Fix works perfectly.

Now just to find a fix for Navigon 3.5.3 / 03022011 build and I'll be as happy as Larry.

Tried the one that changes the libmedia file in the system/lib folder but phone wouldn't boot. Advanced restore of system got me back up and going in 5 minutes so no harm done.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] melorib:
For those that miss application management app from Samsung... :rolleyes:

I just found that you can set long press HOME key to show running apps, perfect... :D

I also found that we can set long press BACK key to kill current app... :cool:

I am sure most of you already know this, but maybe some dont...

Download one of the radio zip files for cyanogen, extract only the moden.bin file from your desired radio using winrar, then open the radio you downloaded with winrar and repkace the modem.bin file with the one you extracted from your desired radio. Then just copy it over to your phone and flash away.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] derrzredeem:
just swap the modem.bin into another flashable radio .zip on first post using .zip manager (7zip,winrar,etc.)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] leoon:
thats not what i intended

I want to know if a backup of the apps+data taken from CM7, will work on 2.2.1?

anyone knows?

If I have a nandroid backup of CM7.. can I restore it from 2.2.1 (different file system etc)?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] melorib:
Since saturday no access to cyanogenmod download site, is it only me... :confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ashwinds:
The quick and easy way is to get any other modem cwm file, extract it, swap the jp6 modem.bin inside and zip it back up. You can do all this on your phone if you have Root Explorer. Anyway, here is the JP6 modem as a CWM zipfile.

PS: @codeworkx - you may want to add this to your library. Tried flashing it and it works all ok.

It happened to me this morning

The phone was not warm at all and it stuck at ~25%

Took out the battery and then it continued charging
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] darkalchemist:
Same thing here. Hard reboot fixed it though.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Rumble6059:
AFAIK, the long press of the Home key is just your recient apps, not running apps.

the reason i think this is that it is one of the settings in the CM settings where you can set the number of 'most recient' apps to be displayed.

but yeah the long press back does kill the current app [great if something is not responding!]

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] domy1985:

You can see running apps in Settings>Applications>Running Services>Running
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] melorib:
on choose another app select settings, and then running services

do I have to go there and do it... :confused:

just kidding, I found it by accident...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Guto ViP:
I wonder why until now the Cyanogen not comment on the problem occurred in the Galaxy S I9000B. yet there are more than five people who had the same problem, implying that the problem is in file Cm7-galaxysb-initial-20110304.zip as error that I reported a few pages back.

The worst thing is that it has a Brazilian (Helvio) as responsible for the portability of the ROM (Gingerbread) for I9000B and so far have not seen it manifest itself neither here nor in the XDA community Galaxy S on Orkut.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] melorib:
At least no one is calling you noob or worst, like it happens in SpeedMod kernel and DOC ROM threads (not speedmod or the DOC themselves, of course)...

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] PauCore:
FM Radio

:confused:

I know that the problem with the FM radio is one of the main problems.

But somebody can tell mу, what's the difficulty?

Diver from the recently leaked ROM swill be no problem to get up at CM7, or I'm wrong?.

Except wifi, which I can still get along, FM radio is the only thing that prevents me to use CM7 every day.

great build!

was hesitaing, but everything works fine - except my homebutton, which did before gaaps installed my "backuped programms".

anyone has an idea how I could enable my home button / find the general suspects?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sxi200:
As I wrote earlier this skype fix does work, however I think it affects GPS performance. Using GPS test plus app, with fix shows none or at best one GPS satellite. Reverting back and straight away picks up 11 sats after reboot. I tested indoors next to a window as I always do.

I tested over a couple of hours, applying then reverting back and always the same result.

Then again, since it only takes minutes to apply the fix I think its still a handy one. Ill apply it again when I need to use Skype.

Edit: Tested again today and both seem to work together now.

if i do a nandroid backup now, and go to 2.2.1, will the nandroid backup take me back to CM7? will it work?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cchant:
You'll have to reflash the kernel and initial zip before restoring a nandroid if you go back to a Samsung ROM
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
this

the reason is that CM7 and Samsung ROMs use a different partitioning scheme and filesystems
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] digitalcoder:
Ok before I get flamed as a n00b (I'm not) I need some advise:

I accidentily deleted my efs backup. I know its only restored during initial cm7 setup and that if I stay on cm7 I wont need it (unless something goes wrong of course).

My question: if you were in my shoes would you flash back to 2.2.1 just to create another efs backup, or not worry about it?

Sorry if this has been raised already, did a cursory search but didn't get the answer I needed...

Thanks - quick question, can I flash the efs-backup from CM7 kernel though? Or do I need to flash back to a 2.2.1 kernel to flash efs-backup?

Alternately, where are these files? I can just copy em out using root explorer.

Edit: found it, was in a folder called "EFS" ... very strange. I just backed up the contents of this folder, that should do it, right? Can always adb push back if reqd.

I am using the JL2 modem also (SaskTel) in Canada.

I tested in a location that I know SaskTel only has 850 deployed, I get signal there, but with the JPM modem i get none... I do not recommend the JPM modem for people on SaskTel or on Bell that want to use the 850 band.

As far as which band your phone is using, there is no way that I am aware of on CM7 to check which band it is currently connected to. I assume that it defaults to 1900 and switches to 850 when necessary.

Actually you should make a tar archive out of the /efs to keep the right permissions. It will make your job a lot easier if you need to restore :)

To do this, go through adb and do:
