[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zoubidou:
in fact everybody has wifi working except you.

you can start with odin and reflash the cm7 kernel, without reboot!!!

1. did you update to 22.02?

2. why did you change the modem without first checking how it works, just leave the default modem coming with the ROM.

I recommend:

goto recovery:

wipe factorysettings and cache

goto mounts

mount everything and format datadata, data, system

goto to advanced settings, clear dalvik cache.

after choose zip, and flash initial

after flash latest update

after flash gapps (if you need it)

reboot
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] abbaskip:
That is far from true. And I'm not sure the tone of that is warranted. Do a google search, or search these forums and you'll find loads of people have had wifi issues, and none of the posts have been replied to with a resolution.

Thanks for the rest of your post (apart from this sentence), it may be helpful, I'll try when I get home.

Yes. I always flash CM7 without reboot.

No. I haven't yet, because I'm at work, and for some reason my phone isn't downloading the update. I will as soon as I get home. I'd rather be home, and save 3G data usage anyway.

However, I don't believe there are any wifi fixes in 22/02

When I first booted CM7, I had no network service. I assumed this was why the modems were listed on the first page, and so applied a modem.

Thanks, I'll try this when I get home. See if it makes a difference.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zoubidou:
make sure you have your efs settings saved somewhere.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] abbaskip:
Thanks. If I've ran EFSBackup previously (when installing CM7 before), I don't need to do this again do I?

EDIT: I just tried a quick version of the process (I'm at work so don't have Odin). Basically formatted all, mounted all and factory reset. Then re applied the 20/02 initial zip (without installing a modem).

System has started back up fine, but wifi is still coming up with "Error".
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] svceon:
I had the wifi issue and have solved it yesterday, its a couple of pages backward, simply go back to stock and reflash the cm7 rom, in my case i just went back to darkys resurection.

waiting for 22
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] derrzredeem:
Man, this is the first time i had my HSDPA icon, really nice to see it. :D

Anyway, using JPB and got no problem with wifi not even on 0220.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zoubidou:
i think that's the best way to go.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Kalifax:
Great ROM!

No problems whatsoever.

Anyone know of a keyboard with scandinavian (finnish) layout for CM7?

cheers!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] digitalcoder:
You need to lock/unlock to activate network on builds < 0222
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] au_stevo:
What does the silent update script do? Will it provide me with constant CM7 updates such as bug fixes and other patches?

Also, is anyone using this as a daily rom, how would you guys rate the usability as a daily rom?

Thanks.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bluefisch200:
Curios thing happened to me yesterday...i have updated to 22/02/2011 and then i was in CWM in the mount & storage section and data was already unmounted...everything is working well now...it was just not as expected...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Jodelaplaya:
The 2.3.3 arrives from google ;)

Sent from my Galaxy S using CM7
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gbohm:
usability is given for me since i got the first beta now it is great don't experience a single issue which would bug me great speed great stability (zero random reboots since 20.2) sometimes i don't get a data connection after reboot (even after lock-unlock)but if i try it for a couple of times it works again
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] abbaskip:
That's what I did to start with.

What did you originally do which caused the wifi issue? Install a modem after flashing (like I did?)

I'll go back tonight (when I get home I'll flash a stock rom, and then reload 2202)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] abbaskip:
Yeah, I did this. And still had no service. I've since noticed that in CM7 I never get service until the SD Card scan finishes.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bluefisch200:
Oh before i forget this...my battery is only charging to 96%, is there any way to recalibrate the battery?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] derrzredeem:
Been running this since the early release, i got to say it's stable enough for a test ROM. And now running on latest. :)

what is working good in general :

-wifi (set policy to never)

-battery (at least for me)

-the best 2G performance i've experienced

-no random reboot if...

a little drawback for me is when you play music with DSP enabled, you can feel the system lag. But it much better in latest update.

And i'm pretty sure when they reach RC status it will gone.

update : GPS is awesome here. so does the camera ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mrruin:
usability is great for me, the only thing that might irk people is the still higher than stock battery drain of CM7. But it has not been optimized yet, but will be when all the features are working to the developers content.

I use WIFI, 3g data and several tasker profiles to automate processes. It all works very well. I have not used GPS or bluetooth since I basically never need either so I cannot comment on that.

Calls, browsing and taking pictures or recording videos all work nicely. Try it out for yourself!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mrruin:
that is actually a "feature" introduced with 2.2 I think to prevent overcharging/overheating if I remember correctly.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] brujoand:
Yeah, If you _really_ want a full charge, you can turn the phone off at 96%. Charge for 30 min, pull the plug, charge for 30 min again. Eventually you will get a full charge. But your battery will die after like 5 months :P
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bluefisch200:
Well, it wasn't there with Samsungs 2.2.1 ROM ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mermigas:
Just a simple question

Why this release is called

DANGEROUS TEST RELEASE

It is not dangerous at all.:p

I can call it Beta
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mrruin:
it was there for me on any of Doc's ROMs. My phone jumped to 97/96% immediately after unplugging it. May have started with one of the later 2.2 releases like JPX or JPY I cannot remember.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rdy2go:
Me too, but the name is not accidental IMO: it's to keep (total) newbies who don't read the simple manual but flood developers with bug reports instead AWAY!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] harrydg:
check the issues list and think about what a newbie would think of those problems...:

fm radio doesn't work

external usb card doesn't work

no tv-out

it's still highly in development, so you only want "experts" to try this rom. People who KNOW what they are doing and people who can fix a problem instead of wining

==> extremely dangerous test release

sure... for some it's good... but not for everyone
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] derrzredeem:
edit: sorry for OT

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] smukc:
Anyone experiance the same problem?? I will try to go back to stock samsung rom and then flash cm7from the begining when i come home
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] green0153:
every LiPo charger when it senses that the battery is full or at a 4.2V the charge ends because the battery can be damaged and swell or explode from heat or overcharging.

In the previous versions samsung hid the few procent you loose when you unplug the phone.But if you unplug the phone right after it finished charging you will see that the battery is at 100%.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] svceon:
nothing really, flashed from a 2.2.1 and after the first boot on CM7 i didnt had data nor wifi.

after flashing GAPPS data reappeared, wifi didnt.

i believe that this rom flashing is very sensible, it has to be in the perfect environment and it has to run smoothly well, or else something doesn't go well.

So, @all if you have any problems like data mounting, wifi, 3G/HSDPA data or something, just reflash from stock 2.2 or from darky's resurection ODIN rom.

EDIT: Anyone experiencing some large ammount of battery drainage comparing to 2.2? i was on a 2.2.1 very very light rom, and after a full work day i still had something like ~60% battery. Either i was with a positively brutal battery drainage and now its normal or this rom is draining more that usual.

BTW i cant stop saying how awfully awesome this rom/project is becoming...one month with this device and the comunity is great although the device is very hard to work with.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zoubidou:
ok i updated to 2202 without a hitch

using the keyboard it seems very sensitif (maybe a bit over sensitif but thats ok)

however it feels like the key are not really centered, they are slightly of the right and below. which makes mistakes easy.

it is just a feeling, maybe i am wrong.

maybe it would be good to find a way to calibrate the screen, as with samsung original rom.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mrruin:
for anyone missing swype: I just registered for their open beta program and installed swype through their install client. Working without a hitch on CM7!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Rumble6059:
i did the same myself, prefer the skin on the stock Samsung to the beta one, but still works good for me [use it when i only have one free hand for typing]

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] abbaskip:
I'll go back to stock jpy tonight and start again with 22/02.

Won't install a modem and see how I go. Hopefully wifi sparks to life!

Agree on the project. It's sensational. Once there is an official RC or even possibly if I get wifi working, I'll be donating
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] chupchip:
At this stage, I think CM7 for SGS is quite close to be official.

Tell me if I'm wrong.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hacksome:
One Observation:-

I tried to connect to a adhoc wifi internet sharing network setup on a Macbook Air - without success. It says.. "Connecting...", then "Disconnected".
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gregounech:
In fact, I think we now reached a nearly BETA Stage.

Indeed, nearly all the functionalities of CM7 are fixed, I would call that a BETA stage.

Then from BETA to RC will need some bugfixes that are very important to fix.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] svceon:
@codeworkx

mik_os managed to get cpu options solved in settings->cyanogenmod settings->performance->CPU

did you checked it out? :)

if you could implement it, it would be one less bug :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bilboa1:
Check in the devtools there is a screen tester. for me the screen is perfectly calibrated.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] svceon:
I actually miss some settings from CM6 like the task bar and drop down customization, but then again, its CM stuff, not related to the project

PLUS with T-Mobile theme engine implemented i dont see why i miss it...but am i wrong when i say that CM7 has less features than CM6?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] brujoand:
Did anyone else notice that there is a bussing coming from inear headphones connected to the phone with CM7? This was not there with stock rom. Could this be one explanation for batterydrain?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zoubidou:
didn't find any screen tester in devtools, wonder if it is somewhere else
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] flip360:
Here also, 2.2.1 with speedmod kernel is lasting 2-3 days of normal usage and almost 1-2% in idle overnight. i unplugged the phone from the charger some 2-3 hours ago and i am down to 80% with just 4 phonecalls, no data, no wifi, thats a bit much imho. gonna test it still...apart from that, very good work!!! any news on 2.3.3?

Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mrruin:
mainline CM7 has not been finished yet. There is no stable CM7 release for any phone out at the moment as far as I know. So it could be that some features just haven't made it back into their core code yet.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] abbaskip:
Loads in the market. Try one of those.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] codeworkx:
where? haven't seen yet.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] codeworkx:
Right. Improved camera app will come with cm7.1 and a lot of other stuff. cm7 mainline is still under heavy development.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pacoforet:
After 3 hours 30 minutes under JPM radio, battery is at 71% from fully charged (95%)... Si its like more than 7% drain/hour. I think it is too heavy, and have'nt been making any heavy use of the phone, pretty much in idle... :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] vukandric:
I already said this once in this thread. Could you check under setting>battery use>cell standby? I had 100% time without signal, and that drains battery as hell. I had 50% bug with some 2.2.1 roms and that is why I know this causes big battery drain, and while testing cm7 I had 100% (even with lock/unlock phone). Sorry if this is not a cause to battery drain, I am just trying to help. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gbohm:
i am at 65% for 4hours unpluged with heavy use(day off) this is about the same with darky's last rom

i am running with jpm modem and cm7 from 22022011
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pacoforet:
Hmm, I also have Cell Standby been running all the time... but it represents 12% of battery drain. Nice find! Is this supossed to be like this? Or maybe there is something dev's could optimize?

Also I am having a very high usage of "Media", being in idle, with no music on or whatsoever... anyone else?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] vukandric:
Believe me, while on 50% without signal (on 2.2.1 rom) it showed me less then 10% of total drain, but the drain was about 5 times higher then usual. Media could be one of the reasons too, but I am pretty sure that the drain is because of signal.

EDIT: On 2.2.1 rom I just switched to airplane mode and back and the % without signal was back to normal, but I couldn't get this in cm7.

EDIT2: If I remember right, it was a kernel thing (because I had that problems usually after flashing a new kernel).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] abbaskip:
ARGH!

I went back to Darkys resurrection. I went into Darkys to test wifi in there. It worked.

I then proceeded to install 20/02 version from scratch, as mentioned before.

I follow the steps, to the word.

I flash speedmod. I run efsbackup from three button recovery. I flash the initial kernel in Odin (without reboot). I enter recovery (three button again). Wipe, format etc. And flash the 20/02 initial. Wipe, etc. Reboot

CM7 loads perfection...Click Turn Wifi on....

...

..

BAM!! Error! :(

Just upgraded to 22...I'll let you know.

EDIT: Upgraded to 22, and BAM!!! I have wifi!!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] brujoand:
I suddenly lost packet data on 22/2 update. Had to reboot to get it back. Ive been stationary for 5 hours, so i didnt move out of the connection area :P
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bluefisch200:
It seems to be that the initial release has problems with Wifi...i had the same problem...after update from 20/02 -> 20/02 (well it is not a real update ;)) Wifi was working...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MPodlesnik:
Hello CM7 fans :) One Q. Before i installed gapps i have network, now i dont have it. It says no mobile network when i want to call someone,...but the signal on the tab is full :)

What is wrong ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mrruin:
will a reboot fix it? I had this when trying to switch to 2g yesterday. I rebooted, unchecked 2g and rebooted again and everything went back to normal.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MPodlesnik:
Ok reboot works :)

Is it safe to apply .zip file which i made in titanium backup, and backup apps and want them to restore it now?

Or i restore this backup in clockwork which i made it with nandroid ?

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] abbaskip:
So my new issue seems to be with USB storage.

This worked perfectly for me on 20/02 release. Now it warns "If you turn on USB storage some applications you are using will stop and may be unavailable until you turn off USB storage."

So I say OK, and the phone locks up. Doesn't FC, doesn't reset/reboot. Just locks up. I can turn the screen on and off, but that's it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] svceon:
tested right after i saw your post, i dont have that issue, pretty fine here :)

Can anyone let me know if I can use TW Launcher with CM7 and the procedure to use it...

Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] brujoand:
I would say no. The idea of using CM is to get away from things that are not AOSP. That is thouchwiz HTC sense etc. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Razer(x):
Cyanogen is totally without samsung's crap, so the answer is no
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bilboa1:
Most apps relying on TW (the framework not the launcher) aka most sammy apps won't work. (including the launcher afaik)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Gh0stw4lk3r:
had this issue randomly with all versions of CM7 even a few minutes ago it happend with 22-02. it seems that 1 out 10 times it locks up and all you can do is reboot.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] svceon:
have you tried this?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] derrzredeem:
i had this issue since early release, it's a random thing.

I think this is related to ext-sd not mounted, i might be wrong though?

:)

EDIT: you can try unticked usb debugging or access it from recovery.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] abbaskip:
I did because the initial post is now confusing, and implies that you can only dl 0220 initial, not 0222. Just a matter of not changing the name above the download link.

Strange thing is, I had usb storage working fine on 0220. So I don't imagine that is the problem. Though stranger things have happened with this ROM. At least wifi is working, so I can dl future updates from the phone. Won't bother reflashing before then unless I really need to.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] abbaskip:
Going to sleep now. Work in five hours. Have disabled usb debugging, and will try tomorrow. Otherwise, good point about using usb in recovery.

Ps: one more thing, if i update to 2/22 will i lose apps and data, or will it keep everything the way it was?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] quadix:
there is a really big problem with facebook app - all the apps that communicate with the facebook app, make all system to crash with FC's and the only solution is to do reboot.

for example, I get into the gallery and try to share a picture with facebook, it make FC's and the system get crash with many FC's and need reboot.

one more problem it with the Android Market Web(‪https://market.android.com‬), its can't recognize my phone and I can't install apps from the web.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] prking07:
Umm no problems here, ive uploaded many pics with CM7 on my galaxy and no Fc! Facebook works great over here!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Adevem:
I don't see the HSDPA icon and i'm using the 02-22 update. HSDPA speeds though for sure.

and no worries, just flash over, it'll keep everything. do a Nandroid backup if you're afraid(like me).

wifi/ data issue

This might help someone:

I flashed the 22 version and had network/data issues (it did not work on boot to get the phone to connect to the network I had to lock/ unlock a few times). I did try reflashing a few times, even reverting back to a samsung stock rom. then back to CM7. With the same issues.

Also Wifi would connect to my router (SMC) i.e. I had an ip address and the phone showed that it was connected. But I could not access any sites/ other pc's on the network. It worked fine on my linksys router just would not work connected to the SMC.

After playing around with a few different modems, I changed to version JPE (from the first post). now the phone connects on boot with no issues.

The problem with the wifi, was the phone will not connect on channel 6. I changed the SMC router to channel 8 and it works fine now.

Great work dev's it is shaping up to be a g8t rom :D

Forgot to mention I am using the I9000 International version
