anyone who has CM7 currently on the phone:

does playback of FLAC files work without crash ?

according to github / twitter message it should be supported

with each samsung-based ROM the phone kept on rebooting or crashing for me

either during media-scanning or attempt of playback of FLAC files

thanks !

the cypress touchkey driver currently is pretty noisy by its own:

so after that debug output gets disabled battery runtime & load should be to a part improved

is the following error message normal, btw ?

I checked and there really is no

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
generally the system feels super-smooth (with animations) & also it is very reactive

like I wrote before: Voodoo Sound is awesome :P

kudos to supercurio

debug isn't completely disabled

mostly parts of the "Kernel hacking" section that are really not interesting for users & production use

and some security improvements & of course some patch additions (including voodoo sound)

I haven't included voodoo color since git doesn't seem to be able to make a correct diff patch :o

anyone could post one for the CM7 kernel, please ?

btw,

Android Issue-Entry for the mediaserver wreaking havoc:

"Mediaserver" consuming ~100% CPU time after failing to play streaming videos that's the one with the 70-100% cpu load ;)

There us a problem with the Fastswitch between HSDPA/3G and WiFi

In fact now if Wifi is on or off, the 3G or H always stays on.

This never happend to me before. Besides the fact that I think that this will definitifely increase battery drain.

The H/3G only goes away when I deselect Data.

This is with JPM modem. I will now check with gingerbread modem

I have changed modem, and it does not change anything.

small question ... did someone manage to make the headset remote work with CM7?

i listen music with poweramp full and the remote doesn't work ... is it an official issue?

in CM6 as i remind myself after some updates it worked

cr@p ... it is an official issue :))

or not even that

seems like the MP3Extractor is the culprit ?

source: Android mediaserver process using processor / battery

edit:

ok,

I put a .nomedia file onto the /sdcard folder

the stock player isn't finding any songs anymore (== no scanning anymore)

but the mediaplayer still eats around 30%

logcat also doesn't reveal anything useful

If you ever feel like giving tips for removing debug stuff, ill appreciate it (my netbook is almost st up for compiling, just have tio find time xD)

On the mediaserver issue, I'm almost sure that other non cm7 o specially not on sgs) aosp builds do not use from 20 to 40 % cpu when playing music. Samsung ROMS use around 4%.

This information is without the bug that you mentioned.

Ok this is weird. I installed CM7 for the first time and the camera doesn't work at all. I can't make video calls or take pictures.

Is the camera working for anyone else?

The calculator sucks too. I prefer the old one.

I'm starting to wonder why I moved from Darky v.9.3 to CM7. Can someone tell me what additional benefits are available in Gingerbread?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dehem333:
If you dont know the benefits from Gingerbread(also CM7) I also wonder why you moved to this lol.

Nah in all seriousness, this is the fastest ROM available for sgs by far. It's still in heavy developement so some things may not work as they should. But its pretty stable and awesome already and the camera should just work for anyone;)

The camera app opens but all I see is black. It's like it is not connecting to the camera.

I just tried opening it again and an image showed up, but then it force-closed and went to the ADW launcher (I'm on launcher Pro as my default!)

I rebooted and again the camera app opens but all I see is black where the image is supposed to be.

I just tried a fourth time and now I see coloured lines where the image should be- like a bad tv signal.

Any advice?

Maybe you can try to pull out the battery. Hold the 3 button combination for downloadmode and put the battery in again. Don't relese the 3 buttons before you see download mode.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MuayThaiFighter8:
Then use a JIG by ordering from eBay.

Or use a hairdryer.

How to:

- Pull your battery out and make your phone hot by pointing the hairdryer on the backside of your phone for 2 minutes.

- Plug your battery in again fast en put your phone in download mode through 3 button combination.

Be carefull on making your phone not too hot!

This works!!

At own your risk ofcourse :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Lenunited:
the ril polling issue do you have to do this everytime or just the once when flashing, if so thats not such a big problem :)

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cocchiararo:
I'll try to remember XD

i just did some quick tests, and i think that:

mp3: ~~23%

m4a: ~~30 to 33%

My m4a files are more compressed than my mp3 files.

I should get a better batch of files in different formats to test.

Right now i test with OSmonitor and the media player, but maybe running top from my pc through ssh and playing the music files from Astro or root explorer would be better.

EDIT: scrap that, i did some quick tests with a few m4a and mp3 with root explorer and ssh and top, and usage goes from 15 to 30+ % randomly, hovering 26 to 30 most of the time.

as soon as a coworker who has a motorola milestone with cm7 comes back from hollydays, ill snatch his phone and tests this, if its a cm7 in general, and not only a "bug" from our version, i'll let it be :P
