Since i'm on JVK i dont have to lock/unlock anymore :))

and the good stuff is since my last fresh install cm7 has never been

soo much fun and great pleasure to use :)

ps: do you people also have automatic restore of apps from the latest gaaps ?

I came from wipe, logged into my google account first time has normal procedure

ticked all the box to tick, then waited like 10 min and had 130 apps intalled without moving one finger, this is really fun !!

never been so fast on the state before wipe after a fresh install :)

@coolya:

sorry if it's old news for you but

would the following thread be helpful for getting the FM Radio to work ?:

FM Radio - Another approach

is it supposed to work already ?

(if yes I might know what was missing in the config of our custom kernels until now :D )

thanks !

edit:

also:

would re-using large parts of the si470x and si470x i2c driver help ? <-- forget that I first gotta understand how all those files interact ...

Guys im experiencing something strange,

I was on a froyo rom and went through the whole instalation process fine, everything went fine except at boot i get the fuzzy screen and i dont have access to the emmc.

Already went to froyo with darkys resurection a couple of times. My question is, should i go to a real stock rom or am i doing something stupid?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
you tried out Sammy's leaked Gingerbread meanwhile ?

then you need to re-flash your bootloader :o
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Steyux:
What kind of issue generates the samsung girgerbread bootloader?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cocchiararo:
Back when i had a nexus one, MIUI devs and Cyanogen guys talked to each other, and CM6.* got the FM radio app from MIUI.

People using the MIUI rom now say that when the official miui rom (from china), thats based on CM7 sources, but compiled by them (not the original port), most CM7 issues remain, but not the BATTERY problem.

People CLAIM (i know, people can claim... some darky rom version with custom darky voodoo kernel claimed 3.5 days with HEAVY use.........) that battery is much better.

IF that is true, then maybe some comunication with the miui devs could give us a better battery on CM7 xD
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] svceon:
Yes but only jv1...is this the cause?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
afaik the mentioned issues like svceon currently has:

- no access to emmc

- weird display corruption / display on bootup

yes, this most probably is the cause

I currently don't know of a nice Howto (didn't have to do it)

Is it me or the JVK modem finally sends the Wifi to sleep when the screen goes off?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] madmack:
At this point, and I'm just asking, do we know whats causing the battery drain on our beloved CM7 ? that rom is perfect if for that battery drain. you'd expect a light rom to last much longer than samsung's stock.

to the devs and other gurus: do we at least know whether the issue is in the framework or kernel ? I know debug code is activated, but that surely can't account for this tremendous discrepancies that we have between CM7 and other stock roms.

I'm not even sure how i'd debug that (does cpu sleep correctly when screen is off ? any apps causing this drain ? incompatibility with RIL ? a bug with CM7's framework ? etc.)

It'd be great if anybody in the know how can shed some light on that.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] FadeFx:
this is a standard android feature, it just never worked on the sgs, it also does not work on i5800. however it worked well on i7500...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] svceon:
Kindly waiting for some info on this issue, thanks in advance zach
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] branalvere:
The MIUI ROM is based on CM7. You can nandroid your current CM7 setup, do a wipe and flash MIUI straight from CWM and back again. All the radios and custom kernels are compatible. I think it's obvious that the two are intrinsically linked and what affects CM7 affects MIUI. Problems solved in one are problems solved in another.

MIUI has exactly the same RIL issues as CM7, ie lockscreen sometimes required to kickstart radio. It lacks some of the functionality of Cm7 in terms of options etc.

In terms of battery, MIUI is much worse than CM7 although I have only a few days to compare and I have run 3 builds of MIUI in those 3 days and I flashed back to Cm7 Saturday because I was working and concerned about reliability!

The latest build is solid though and only retains the usual faults, ie CFC rotation, black lines on back cam, no fm radio blah.

On the plus side, its gone from a non functional test to a fully functional rom in TWO WEEKS and the official chinese devs are now on board with mambo kenia and co so the prospects are good for future development.

And this can only be good for CM7, surely?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] buzzworkers:
Here you go : http://www.multiupload.com/8AVM26M0Z9

You need to Odin this on the PDA field.

Then the others will confirm this, you go flash kernel, you can follow the usual cm7 step by step stuff :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] svceon:
Thank you very much.

just to clarify, i flash this with odin and after that its step 1 in cm7 instalation?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pacoforet:
Im looking at the same and the download is a .md5. not sure to flash it... should'nt it be a .tar?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] buzzworkers:
just to clarify, i flash this with odin and after that its step 1 in cm7 instalation?

- Yes indeed :)

pacofret : no it's really like that, to be flashed on the PDA place.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pacoforet:
You linked a .md5 file, maybe an error? Or is it right?

Edit: Ok, thank you ;)

Tried to flash, it says MD5 hash value is invalid, any clues?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] buzzworkers:
The IRC peeps (they usualy know their stuff, i have to say :) say it's normal in that case. ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
it's correct

I don't know how exactly that file is composed but the md5 extension shows that there is a checksum included with the tar file

so Odin can check & knows that the file to flash is correct
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pacoforet:
It gives error, 3 posts above I stated it... :(

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] buzzworkers:
before going JVK i wiped/factory reset, then flashed jvk then 0326 - wiped dalvik cache then rebooted, and this modem is simply amazing on here, but also i'm on default cm7 kernel..

I'm using it now with the other guy kernal lol cant remember his name lol.. And its working fine.. And no reboots at all.. I did get some random reboots with your kernal when I tried it..

Battery isn't an issue for me..:))
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
thanks buzzworkers !

I'll give that a try :)

edit:

and it thankfully worked ! :)

I've never factory/wiped my phone more often than with CM7 (and of course due to the frequent modem & system updates) :p

so it's not a problem with CM7 per se
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] buzzworkers:
at what point where you, before trying it now ?

did you ticked repartition when flashing the bootloader ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] buzzworkers:
And if you have a linux box you can always try http://perka.zapto.org/

there is a bootloader folder, with all the necessary files for Heimdall
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pacoforet:
I placed the file you provided in PDA, no repartition, auto reboot.

It gives error in Odin 1.7 and 1.3.

:(

I tried Darky's resurrection to get the froyo bootloader, but CM7 doesn't boot, and in recovery, my capacitative keys dont work :(

I know the problem, its the bootloader, once I fix it it set to go, but the file you provided gives me error :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
ok, thanks !

yes, battery now also isn't an issue anymore for me (just today got a momax expower 2700 mAh battery :p )
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] buzzworkers:
Stop, stop, dont tick repartition, sorry !
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pacoforet:
XDD, I didn't ;)

I know how to fix this but I need the Froyo Bootloaders so I can flash them in Odin, or any stock samsung rom that contains bootloaders, which I couldn't find. Im flashing again JVK. Gonna try tomorrow, Thanks btw!

you need to start from scratch with CM7 then

but at least it should work
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] buzzworkers:
Zacharia is giving the good recipe :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] loco-:
In order to flash the bootloader file with odin, you have to rename it to "anything.tar" (remove the .md5).

It's the usual JS5 PDA file, he just deleted everything except the bootloader files.

̶t̶̶h̶̶e̶̶r̶̶e̶'̶s̶̶ ̶̶a̶̶ ̶̶m̶̶d̶̶5̶̶ ̶̶h̶̶a̶̶s̶̶h̶̶ ̶̶a̶̶t̶̶ ̶̶t̶̶h̶̶e̶̶ ̶̶e̶̶n̶̶d̶̶ ̶̶o̶̶f̶̶ ̶̶t̶̶h̶̶e̶̶ ̶̶f̶̶i̶̶l̶̶e̶̶,̶̶ ̶̶w̶̶h̶̶i̶̶c̶̶h̶̶ ̶̶i̶̶s̶̶ ̶̶i̶̶n̶̶v̶̶a̶̶l̶̶i̶̶d̶̶ ̶̶b̶̶e̶̶c̶̶a̶̶u̶̶s̶̶e̶̶ ̶̶t̶̶h̶̶e̶̶ ̶̶o̶̶r̶̶i̶̶g̶̶i̶̶n̶̶a̶̶l̶̶ ̶̶d̶̶a̶̶t̶̶a̶̶ ̶̶h̶̶a̶̶s̶̶ ̶̶b̶̶e̶̶e̶̶n̶̶ ̶̶c̶̶h̶̶a̶̶n̶̶g̶̶e̶̶d̶̶.̶

After deleting files from the archive, the md5 hash inside the file is gone.

So if the file extension is *.tar.md5 odin will md5 hash the file again and compares the result with the md5 hash inside the file, to prevent flashing defective firmware archives.

EDIT: check this out :p

I hex edited the new md5 hash into the file.

If you don't change the .tar archive and don't rename it, odin will flash it :D

<OSM> Enter CS for MD5..
<OSM> Check MD5.. Do not unplug the cable..
<OSM> Please wait..
<OSM> js5_bootloader.tar.md5 is valid.
<OSM> Checking MD5 finished Sucessfully..
<OSM> Leave CS..
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 0)

btw: don't ask me how to flash the file via cwm, this is not an update.zip :p

this is so frustrating please help i followed

was it because i wasnt able to change my date to rfs from ext4?

what should i do?:confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] brujoand:
I came from docs rom with ext4 lagfix myself. That does not matter as long as the cm7 kernel understands ext4, which it does. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] derrzredeem:
you got nothing to worry about, those error are normal i supposed.

as long as your phone booted ;)

E: format_volume: make extf4fs failed on/dev/block/mmcblk1p2 as far as i know this error is related to ext-sd..

@pacoforet: FYI, flashing JPU gives you a correct botloader, then flash CM7 back

Help with kernel!!

Hi i tried to build cm7 kernel for telus fascinate (not verizon one)

i found that the only diffrence between i9000 and fascinate is the key mapping.

i tried to flash captivate kernel and touchkey worked fine, but the speaker and headphone fuction got reversed and the gravity sensor not working.

So i think changing i9000 cm7 keyboard driver to captivate cm7 keyboard driver would work perfectly, but i dont know how.

I tried and I spend about 1week, but i failed.

Can somebody make one for telus fascinate users?

or tell me how to do it step by step?

The file that i attached is the captivate cm7 keyboard driver

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pacoforet:
Just wanted to leave feedback on my issues I had described in the last two pages, because maybe someone may need it.

If you have flashed any of the two GB leaks by Samsung (JV1 or JKV) to revert back to CM7 or MIUI clean you have to:

1.- Flash in Odin the Froyo bootloader contained in JS5, by either flashing the stock JS5 ROM or Flashing the JS5_bootloader.tar.md5 uploaded in this thread (for this no repartition and dont tick update bootloader!)

2.- Flash cm7-initial-kernel.tar in Odin, NO repartition and NO auto-reboot.

3.- Unplug the phone once Odin says Done/Sucess, and take the battery off, put it again and boot into recovery using 3 button combo (Vol Up + Power + Middle button).

4.- Format /data, /system and /cache in Mounts and Storage.

5.- Flash in CWR either CM7 initial .zip or MIUI RC1 .zip.

6.- Enjoy.

Doing this you revert the bootloader to the Froyo one, assuring you have no problems with auto-rotation and External SD.

Thanks to zacharias.maladroit, buzzworkers and loco- for their support!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] melorib:
I never had to do that, just used the 3 buttons to go into recovery... :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gbohm:
yeah i think you are right but they will not make bad battery life to great batterylife...that is what i want to say

I'm using JPK bootloaders and i haven't noticed any of those problems with external storage or autorotation.

How do we config the switches on the notification bar? i remember seeing some settings of which switches did you want there but i cant find it anymore
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gbohm:
btw for flashing bootloaders i would recommend not useing ,,flash bootloader" .

i would flash a rom with bootloader included it should flash the bootloader on itself (without ticking it in odin)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
come on harimgs

stop heavy cross-posting on any CM7 related thread already :p

are those really the only changes in the kernel source ?

pacoforet needed a guide getting him away from Gingerbread not towards JVK XD

thanks anyway !

yes, I still got the same

so the polling/RIL issue isn't fixed by modem - most probably controlled by other parts

XD

denglisch :p

but yes, the lockscreen and the screen of animation are awesome :D

it is settings- cyanogenmod settings -userspace(i don`t know in english it is the fourth) there you have energy controles in statusbar

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] phalanger:
What a thoroughly enjoyable ROM!

Only thing Im really missing so far is integrated voodoo sound, i hope someone will make a cm7-based kernel with it, thats otherwise close to stock cm7. Or even better voodoo becoming part of the official kernel :)

The currently available alternative kernels that have voodoo don't seem to be fully stable yet.

But for now this rom is so nice I can live with waiting a bit more on that :)

Yea they're not bad. I've never had huge issues with either one.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
don't forget the fact that CM7 is a rolling target

continually improving and changing stuff

so it's normal that stuff might get unstable from time to time

my kernel just recently got unstable for a short while because I added several features that were lacking (in my opinion) & with new features of course also comes (potential) instability and needs testing :p

currently I view my kernel as stable though & probably won't change much in the next future so it'll stay that way (stable) :)

bilboa1's (the other kernel dude :) ) BLN implementation (hopefully) will make it into the CM7 tree for the Samsung Galaxy phones

once and for all fixing the annoying permanent staying-on softkey issue (introduced with Gingerbread, also present with Samsung's Gingerbread :D) & adding BLN support

I'll wait until it gets "stable" & the GUI control-part finished then I'll also include it (or after it has been added to upstream)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gravityz3r0:
Hi guys,

One question that i couldnt find an answer to it.

How bad is the RIL polling problem at the moment? Or rather, how often does it happen? I'm thinking to try CM7 but i don't want the signal to die on me every now and then and requiring me to lock/unlock screen again :P

Thanks!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Manadar:
Very few RIL problems here.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lockpick:
For me it's not bad at all, you will only have to do it the first time after a reboot.

and I find that it doesn't even happen on every reboot, only sometimes.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] -jacky2k-:
Only when you boot your device you have to lock/unlock to get signal.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gravityz3r0:
Oh, if it only happen in the beginning after each reboot, then it's perfectly fine. I thought it's going to randomly lost signal when the phone is in standby. Thanks for the input!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] -jacky2k-:
Yes sometimes i get a signal without lock/unlock but until i do this the phone lags very much....

Only for me or can anybody confirm this and tell me why?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] phalanger:
To install your kernel i must first install the 86mB system update before flashing the kernel? Wont this revert some of the system to older version cause its dated earlier then the latest cm7 nightly that i have installed?

Sorry if its a dumb question, the install instructions are a bit unclear for me with all the different files offered. Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
I just cleaned up the post & it's still not

clear enough *sigh* :o

no - just only apply the kernel-update that should be enough

as you can tell from the date of the latest system-update (03/17/2011) it's older than the current nightly 03/18

so whenever a system-update is older than the current available nightly (from codeworkx at sourceforge)

only apply the kernel

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pacoforet:
Imposible to re-enable without flashing a samsung ROM.

My best guess is to flash any froyo ROM in odin, boot up, change HPSPA revision and then flash in odin CM7 initial kernel. After that, restore a nandroid backup of cm7 and you are done.
