Hi there, i know it's experimental, and i don't have enough of a background in android to properly debug what's going on, i just wanted to say that I have a bell i9000m as well, having similar problems as you, (only the one where i would lose all my data and user settings and apps after each reboot), i tried your solution, hasn't helped me, now just to clarify, when you say you mount data, then wipe system data and cache, you mean you go to mounts and storage, mount /data, then individually wipe system data cache in that same menu? i've tried that but to no avail. im not complaining, i can easily flash out just wanted to clarify for the other bell users out there that it didn't work for me :(

Quick question - does anyone know what I have to restore in titanium to get sms back? Found everything except for sms. And mybackup fc all the time, I can't finish.

And some feedback - everything works without any problems (well, except know issues). I think I'll even keep it as my daily.

Two things to remark, and one isn't to code/col - I freakin hate contacts/dialer. SO ugly and hard to use. Second more on topic - launcherpro is quite laggy on cm. Animations in it are very-very jerky.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dgovil:
Yeah that's what I did.

It fixed everything else. Haven't tried the reboot bug yet, since I need the phone setup for a bit to do some work.

That said, it only seems to be an issue with the gApps. Everything else keeps there settings.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jecasluis:
IMHO Darky's its faster than this release of cyanogenmod ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kosta20071:
Great release!!!

however I've some bugs like:

1) after rebooting I have to find my network provider otherwise I have no signal

2) the camera which is a known

3) in cayanogen setting I get FC when trying to enter CPU settings.

Other then that, everything works great! Even for a first test release!!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Over Clocker:
Hi guys,

I've been testing this ROM quite a lot and am rather impressed so far.

However, I was just wondering what sort of battery life you are getting on v7 (update 22)?

I am finding my battery is dead daily by around 5pm, meaning it is only lasting for around 8 hours. I am on Push with gmail and an exchange account.

around 30 - 40 mins of phone calls a day.

Cheers,

Mal

download volume master free in the market and slide all volume bars to max, dont forget to scroll down for more sliders.

if that does not fix it its you or the device thats bugged.

anyone ? becouse this is realy anoing and forces me to go back to samsung rom :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jimmyboggust:
Semi Noob

Using Darkys 9.3 and decided its time for real gingerbread.

Just to check, befor I follow the installation instructions, I should do darkys reserection edtion, then backup efs, then follow instructions?

Also do I need ext4 lagfix enabled or disabled?

Sorry if the questions are a bit stupid!:o
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gbohm:
please read the instructions and follow it to the letter

i had ext4 and didn't disable it .

why would you flash darky's resurrection?

just follow the initial setup instructions

cm7 now you know
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jimmyboggust:
Thanks for the quick reply!

Sorry - in a previous comment someone said you must do this not to have wifi troubles - is this not the case?

James
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] deputynl:
Just follow the installation instructions to the letter and you will be fine regardless of what rom you come from. One of the steps will format all your partitions, getting rid of the lag fix in the process.

Good luck and have fun!

sorry mate, touchscreen is working fine here.

But, you can test touchscreen using DevTools, under Development setting if i'm not mistaken. ;)

You'll know when it works or not.

Is this accessable over usb ?

Or is it just teh internal memory I can see over usb ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] inzane1:
only the internal one ;)

for the external sdcard you need a card reader.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] StephenC82:

Only thing keeping me away from this.

Back to Darkys I go.

just doesnt sense my touch fu.. dont know what to do...

EDIT: it sense touch if i press real HARD =) ?? what the fu..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] darkalchemist:
I believe it was mentioned earlier as a limitation of android that it can only support one external sd card mounted (I'm unaware of how samsung managed to make it two). As one of the internal sds counts as an external sd card (why they didn't just stick one chip in there is beyond me), it may not be fixable.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] got_milk:
Haven't seen this before or it may be isolated to me...

Running 2011/02/22, when I make or receive a call the phone struggles to hang up if I hang up - it'll sit at hanging up (the longest I've let it sit is a minute and a half). If I back out of the dialer it'll still show the handset notification but if I pull down notifications it says I'm connected to "Unknown - 0:00". If I tap that notification the phone vibrates and it goes away.

If, however, the other end hangs up on me, the phone doesn't seem to recognize this for 45 seconds - 1 minute and stays "connected".

Anyone else seen this?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] camro:
tried call recording ...

@codeworks: can you enable the recording in kernel ?

i think, this is a kernel related stuff ....

(remember myself for a long time on kernel for blackstone, where we did it)

i read it here somewhere, can't remember, you can try removing simcard > reboot > check it if it's working > if it's working just fine > put simcard back.

Not sure it will work, but it's worth to try.

For those interested in the changes of the newer gapps package from 20110120.

The apps are exactly the same, but Gmail has been removed and an app that disables OTA has been added.

Is it true that the current version of this ROM no longer reboots when wifi isn't set to always on?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] BlackDino:
I have this issue as well.

Post it in the issues section
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Hawk:
Can't you just upload stuff with usb to your internal and then move it with astro to external? :P

By the way :

I tried calling someone with my headphones (bluetooth) on and it didn't work, music with headphones is no problem but calling doesn't work (it does nothing). Also can't recieve incoming calls with headphone on.

is this a known bug or not?

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] codeworkx:

But should be nearly identical.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] xero2002:
It's not nearly identical but exactly.

Byte size for the apps is all exactly the same.

Glad you added Gmail, since it's only available on the German market with a workaround.

@derrzredeem

I was just asking because someone a few pages back posted it.

I still always have mine on "ON" all the time.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Andro!de:
Wow. This ROM is so amazing o_O

First I was a bit disappointed because it was so laggy but after two hours it performs very well.

I dont know why :D

And I think this rom is already usuable for everyday life.

Thank you so much for this port and keep up the great work!

Maybe ill donate something...

The last update drains a lot of battery in idle. I think I have seen on bug list

that Coolya accepted this since a lot of debug code is running. Should we

expect to have this sort of battery life during the rest of the development ?

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] svceon:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Uss_Defiant:
Yup - debugging uses system resources to find out what's happening
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] madmack:
Right now when I type on the keyboard really fast I notice a stutter, or some sort of lag. It seems like its being caused by some background process so I guess its because of these debugging messages.

Looking forward to disabling these as progress is made even further :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jimmyboggust:

installed about 2 hrs ago and all is well.

Only reason I might go back until stable, is camera is so so bad.

i think i find the reason to all the FC's - it appear suddenly after i using my phone couple of hours.

i think that some partitions like data or dbdata, that suddenly lose their mounts (make to unmount), i get error that is no space after i try to install app from market, and all the system gets many FC's and get crash - somebody encountered this problem?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] woeds:
I noticed that time without signal is around 50%, on a Samsung JPY-rom this was 0% in the exact same location. I tried both JPM and JPY modems. Seems to me this is the biggest battery drain, not the debugging code.

Is this a problem relating to the RIL?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Bhonka:
Is JPM still the preferred modem?

Also is it fine to use the latest speedmod?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] donlk:
@codeworx or @kolja:

Let's say the main third-party drivers wont change in the next Android. Is it gonna be much easier this way to port 2.4, or it will be the same experimenting of compiling the code inch by inch? What was your biggest problem with the sgs? The closed drivers or the encrypted bootloader?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] xero2002:
Yes it still is.

And no! Never ever flash another kernel!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Andro!de:
I am using the newest SpeedMod without any Problems.

The FAQ says that we can use any Kernel which contains CWM ...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zoubidou:
read post 1 carefully, also the faq, read it carefully.

this is only for the initial efs saving. after you have to flash the cm7 kernel with odin, before you can flash the initial package with the new kernels cwm.

i don't really understand how you can run cm7 with speedmode!!!!!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gbohm:
he is talking about the initial setup

it doesn't really matter which kernel u are using there

it will get the real kernel in the odin step

if you flash another kernel after that one it shouldn't work

cm7 now you know
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] meisterlampe2000:
cm always comes with it's own kernel...if you install the initial package everything is set up to work with the cm infrastructure - filesystem,Kernel drivers etc.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zoubidou:
don't forget you have to flash the cm7 kernel with odin before you can flash anything with cwm
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dehem333:
Stop talking trash.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] svceon:
Stop attacking each other, do your role as a user and help keeping the topic clean and on-topic.

As for the speedmod, this rom is using a recent kernel, not with speedmod's improvements. I've already asked about flashing the latest speedmod/hardcore kernel before but codeworkx confirmed that it will not work, so if you must flash a speedmod kernel do it with this on your mind.

PS: im sorry if i was too harsh about the topic being clean or not.

PSS: how does android defines what goes through the usb when enabling usb mass storage? could it be possible to change that temporarily?

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Cito11:
How did you get the home button working?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Guiper:
Regarding the battery drain there is still something we may be able to help. There are a couple of GPIO's (imagine the button to turn on/off hardware, and not only...) we don't know what they do and we just enabled them.

Somebody running a Samsung Rom can see if this file exist and put the output here?

/sys/kernel/debug # cat gpio

Maybe some small tweaks here are easily achieved.

Who can tell me why we should backup efs before flash cm7? What is efs for?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ashwinds:
EFS provides IMEI which enables you to connect to the mobile network. Without it, you cant use your phone... as a phone.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MPodlesnik:
I think for the IMEI number and those stuff :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pacoforet:
/efs is where your IMEI and other values are stored I think. And we need to backup them because the initial .zip reformats everything to ext4/yaffs and then the /efs backup is restored.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Cito11:
Just to be clear then, no fix for the home button yet?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pacoforet:
"E: No Misc Partition" is not an issue, we have NO misc partition because we don't need it, has been stated plenty of times by codeworkx.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pacoforet:
It would say 90% of us don't have problems with home button, so I would say it is a problem with your device. Try reinstalling fresh, wipe everything, etc.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Cito11:
Thanks, ill give it a go.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Guiper:
Just wipe all data (factory reset) via recovery and it's solved. It's a bug that appears quite often. No idea why.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] louyaorong:
Thank you all for the replies!

And one more question. Where is the efs backup? I am on cm7 now and the phone works fine, but I can't find the efs backup. So where is the backup or is it deleted after restored when flashing initial?

edit1: oh! I find it! it's in /sdcard/backup/efs

edit2: I'm confused that we need to backup efs when from stock rom to cm7, but why don't we need to backup efs again when from cm7 back to stock rom?

I belive it's on a hidden partition, i have read it somwhere in this thread i think.
