Others:

- screen shuts off sometimes and LED lights stay on, the only way I can restart is to take out the battery

- the option to shut down doesn't work- it only reboots (when plugged in)

- Contact list has no slide for messages or call, requires a lot more keypresses than Darky v9.3

- Handcent contact search doesn't work anymore

- no task manager (skype froze and I had no way of closing it)

- sometimes the rotation works, many times it doesn't

I'll add more as I think of them...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] corgar:
Contact management is not made by darky but by samsung. Same for task manager. If you don't like cyano don't use it. It's a beta test and is written everywhere.

Auto rotation work fine, navigator can bug it. Ad already stated before. Try to read more sometimes.

For its been daily use since 2-22. And i havent had a single reboot ever after putting wifi sleep to never. And my camera always works, not 720p but decent pictures and videos. For me this is a daily driver cause the bugs dont affect me. Im not gonna stop using cm7 just because i dont get the H icon, or i cant use the ff cam! Come on, who uses ff cam on a daily basis? Sure cm7 would be better wiyh the kinks worked out, and it will get there, i just think theres no reason to go back! Once youve been cyanonized you cant go back! :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cocchiararo:
You are mistaking stock Samsung features from modifications made by darky...

If I needed Skype and front facing camera, I would not use cm7 of course.

There is a task manager, no idea how to get to it without the shortcut that system info widget gives me, but you can close apps and services, both running and cached from it.

For me google Google's is not working either, it shows a black screen.

Camera works ok, but I rarely use it.

Shut down works as intended, what does not, is charging the phone while its off. Plugging it turns it off.

It seems obvious that users that need the little things not working in this cm7, can't use it (call recording, Skype, ff camera, etc)

My phone did the screen off, less on twice on me, both after a kernel/cm build update and reboot.

Phone was clearly crashed, but long pressing power button does the same as a bat pull.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Lightarrow:
Agree with you. I had put 2-25 bit had too many random reboots so wenr back to darkyy's rom. Not nearly as smooth as cm7. Will stay on this till the end too :-) great work guys!

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
who has the problem of a black screen or the screen staying black

at reboot after the update or initial installation

when the softkeys are still ligthing up if you touch them

your phone most likely isn't broken

IT ONLY TAKES SOME TIME TO BOOT UP

the bootanimation doesn't seem to work in that case

to check whether you phone is very much alive:

adb shell

then (on your phone)

logcat

(perhaps you need to do a su before logcat)

if you see something like:

you should be good to go

try pressing your power (== lock) button shortly and - eventually - another time

in my cases there was the screen waiting for input (password for simcard)

the only problem with that state so far is that I didn't managed so far to get into CWM Recovery :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] chrisjcks:
HELPPPP

i need some serious help please.

my phone has a funny (phone ..>.. PC) image on the screen, and now nothing is coming on.

i can get into download mode, but even though odin has recognised the phone (yellow port) - nothing i try goes past setupconnection on the odin screen. :confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dupel:
I'm pretty sure it was written not to flash this if you can't fix even such small problems by yourself.

Close kies, restart phone-pc, try different usb port.... :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] chrisjcks:
ive never seen this problem on my screen though, :confused:

ive done many flashes etc, im not a complete n00b.

Re download the file, I guess.

Which firmware, pit and odin are you using?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] chrisjcks:
was trying to go back to froyo,

JPY 2.2.1

with re-partition.

(How to revert to another rom?

To revert to a samsung rom, simply use odin with repartition option enabled.)

the phone isnt doing anything, only download mode can come on. (funny symbol on screen either when trying to boot it up, or trying to get to recovery mode)

let me repeat, i can get download mode on - no problems using the 3 button mode, but while its not connecting properly with odin, im screwed :(

and i need some help getting it connected via odin so i can fix this (ive never been this worried.........)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] glukosio:
Thank you very much! But why is in the root directory? :confused:?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] chrisjcks:
i tried JS3 with 803 pit

and at least its started........

I PRAY TO GOD FOR THIS TO WORK!!!!!!!!!!!!

... will post back.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Stefanauss:
One quick question: is it the same to use Heimdall instead of Odin when required or for some reason i can't imagine this steps specifically require Odin?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] au_stevo:
Is the phone coming up as connected under the com port section in odin? If not, cable might be screwed, then try another. Also, try another phone. There's a setting in windows somewhere where you can modify some values of the com ports, can look into that, or just try another computer. If these options still don't work, you gotta take your phone back for repairs.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] chrisjcks:
had to go to JPC 2.2 first, as all the others failed.

but now, im on a fully working JPY and back to my usual UK 2.2.1 firmware.

phew!

i wont be trying CM7 again, thats for sure.

i'll stick to my regular flashing, regular kernels and regular lagfix options.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bilboa1:
it's not like if they had a big red warning that the rom is not ready for daily use and that if you screw up your phone you're on your own.. oh wait. they do.

i'd suggest they write "you will most likely break your phone" that should speak more clearly to people who wanna try but might be unable to recover from errors.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] thecrucible:
Has anyone else had any issues with mobile data? The APN settings no longer seem to be effective.

I would love to take this for a longer spin but if I cannot access mobile data then I will have to downgrade.

EDIT: Please disregard, I got it sorted just had to make a minor tweak to the APN settings I had used. :) While the OP & CodeWorkz do not advocate it I am bumping this one to my daily driver, for at least a week, and will report any issues....
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] BTTNext:
I've been running this ROM today and it's been fantastic, just two, pretty big issues:

1) Not getting any incoming calls. One ring then straight to voicemail. Can make outgoing calls no problem, this issue is really weird.

2) /data fails to mount every 2nd reboot or so. Another reboot usually fixes the issue and everything is back to normal.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DangerMUK:
You star ! I was too dumb to realise that whilst using ADW no 3d menu effect !

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mermigas:
Thanks for the fantastic work. Exept the known isuues my main problems are

1- Blutooth doesnt recognise my car kit device

2-Navigon doesnt function

and some minor thinks regarding external sd card now recognised as emmc

For me Item 1 is very important during driving. Any fix for that?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Mikulec:
I have a question. In the bugs list, there is mentioned that the switching between 2g/3g is not working. Is there a way how to force the phone to use only 2g, as I dont use 3g.

I think using 2g will prolong the battery life.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] banttu:
Before I flashed this ROM. I flashed JM9 with odin,then upgraded it to JPY,

(Rooted, installed CWM), flashed the speedmod kelner included in the .zip file.

Then it was working fine. I'm sure that this is the way to make it work.

JM9 with 512 pit and re-partition, JPY with no pit and re-partiton, speedmod without re-partition.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] funkateer2:
Did the same, Everything going nice. And Now i will use it daily, can't go back to another rom!

Thanks again to dev for your amazing work. Cyanogen is really another world!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] domy1985:
Is it normal that the battery is never fully charged? For me its charging for a long time on 98 %
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Rixsta:
The battery is lying to you....charge, dischargerd...repeat a few times..should sort it out..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] derrzredeem:
Yes, i think you should wait, BUT....

What i don't understand is, why did you flash this at first place. You know it's BETA, you already aware of the bugs, if you don't know then it's your fault. Mostly of the bugs/feature are already mention here. That's why you should read.

Darkyy or any other custom ROM out there for i9000 is Samsung ROM. No wonder you found it easy to use. While CM is a completely different from them, it's pure AOSP, a different world if i can say.

So, if you can't handle "progress", then i'm affraid that this is not for you. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Rixsta:
I couldn't agree more.....
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] domy1985:
Regarding the battery....does it never stop charging even when its fully charged?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] leoon:
??

if its fully charged how can it charge more?

the answer is no
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] domy1985:
It does not give any message when its charged!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
FYI & reference

if you're having trouble to recover your phone

Samsung Galaxy S Series (xda developers wiki)

the funny thing is:

I already got at least 2 "Bricked Screen"

(A.K.A. phone-!-pc or Black Screen of Death)

and recovered from them without jtag, etc. :D

so it's definitely no "screen of death" unless you shred your bootloaders, of course, that is
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] domy1985:

well i just put up my n64 again and compare some games while zelda runs just smooth it crashes all the time for me.....

i compared the games i have to their roms some have bad graphic bucks but the speed is fine (that star wars pod racer is little slow)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] melorib:
I only installed the last version, when it looked functional enough, before that it would be crazy to try to live with it, it was only good for testing...

I never had to remove battery with CM7, had several times with Darky´s and DOC´s

No rear camera problems, I dont record videos...

I only use Skype on the PC, but would like to have a backup in the phone, not usefull without front camera anyway, it will come...

All my apps work perfectely, including Handcent, Shootme, ColorNotes (doesnt work with honeycream theme), even my music player works with the music in the external card...

I also would like to have Samsung dialer, but it is not a must, and I am sure someone will port it soon...

Rotation works with Zacharias kernel...

You can close apps in Settings / application running, but I use Advanced task killer for convenience, on the Service tag...

No black screens, no shutdowns, it charges ok, I just disconnect after 90 something, drain 1% and a bit per hour iddle, but it drains less in use than 2.2.1

I sure am not going back to lagging and slowness because of this minor problems... :confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] HazzBazz:
When you say camera is working, do you mean it shows an imagebut is full of lines and is just horrible (not dissing developers, know it's just waiting to be optimised, I'm just worried I've got a hardware detect). Is this normal for allusers?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] melorib:
Mine takes normal pictures with normal screen...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] leoon:
Is it possible to stop the back light of the buttons?

I think they behave differently from stock samsung since I never was that annoyed from them!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MAMBO04:
The camera isn't optimized properly. There are fuzzy lines when taking a picture and ALTHOUGH they are hardly visible in a photo, they're still there. Just needs improvement which will all come in time :) Back to Darky's ROM for now, was a blast though!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cocchiararo:
but FFC is not useful in skype for android, there is no video chat :P
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cocchiararo:
I fixed the black screen on google googles by switching to the front facing camera, and then going back to the normal one (in the camera app)

ps: either that, or zakarias kernel :P
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Guto ViP:
Of course, because i has jumping from Doc 2.2.1 JS5 to CM7, so initial step anyway...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] melorib:
I could swear that yesterday there where no fuzzy lines, there are now on the screen, but I changed kernel a couple of times... :confused:

As I said, I never used it on the phone, assumed it would be the same, otherwise what is the use ???
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] vukandric:
This new build is great! I have replaced stock dialer with dialer one from market (because I changed lcd density) and stock mms with go sms and I must say it looks really nice. I have no problems at all, battery is really good for me. I am not going to change this thing soon! :D

Thanks for this!

I have try all the video player from the market but there was always something wrong, especially with Flv and divx. And just remember I have MOBO player in my Tapatalk download folder.. install it and... Amen! It's reading EVERYTHING! And the quality is awesome. Even divx. You can find it on XDA, have to register.

find a shop with a jtag box (ask for jtag/riff) after you have tried the jig...

I am receiving a lot of FC this day... Most gapps started to freaking out, reboot, all fine for an hour then browser FC, reboot, all fine for about a half of day, and then Swype FC. Reboot always seems to solve the FC of one particular app, but then another starts to act as it not supposed to.

Also, can't get Gun Bros running - when downloading resources pack to internal memory it always stops at 50 of 109 MB and shows that there is insufficient memory space. When downloaded the res pack to SD it is launching, showing initial screen (glu logo) and then quitting to homescreen.

Camera also showing fuzzy horizontal lines.

Apart from that everything is smooth as butter ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lmulli:
A while ago now whilst using a "normal" galaxy S rom, I remember editing the settings.db as found at http://pocketnow.com/android/fix-samsung-galaxy-s-wifi-sleep-bug in order to add an additional line to the database to tell wifi to go off.

I tried it today on CM7 and have to say that I am very impressed with the outcome thus far - 6 hours and my battery had dropped by 8 percent and thats with internet usage via 3g, emails etc... whereas before I was lucky if it lasted 6 hours!!

Might be useful to some people and very easy to do - you do have to change certain lines for example where it refers to /dbdata/databases/com.android.providers.settings/settings.db in the original link, on CM7 it would appear to be /datadata/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db

Good luck!!

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
TORTURE it ! :D

1) keep the the power-button pressed that it keeps rebooting

2) then after it reboots again: home + volume-down + power button

I don't know the exact steps anymore but those were the most important

and it got into Download Mode again and I flash back to Eclair (JM9)

when you get that nice logo - it doesn't automatically mean the "death" of your phone & that it needs to be sent to Samsung
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Guto ViP:
That is the BIG problem... My screen dont show anything, like a without battery.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
what about adb ?

that also doesn't connect ? :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] derrzredeem:
Yes, was going to tell you that.

Try adb devices, if adb recognize your phone, pretty much you can boot to download mode.

EDIT :

@GutoVIP

If adb recognized your phone, you could try this method http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=811820. It's quite different, it had access to recovery, but you can try it

Hope you sorted out man

I doubt it, mine was completely fine until I flashed the 04/03 package. On 25/02 I was getting 15+ hours of battery with medium use (screen on lowest brightness, on time of 1.5hrs average) with about 30% left.

I am using JL2 also, and I don't have that problem. In fact since the 04/03 update I noticed that with JL2 the RIL problem seems to be gone completely. Phone no longer requires lock+unlock to show signal. Instead as soon as the phone is done booting it shows signal and provider name on lock screen, it also seems to connect to the data network a lot faster.

Downloadlink does not work in cyanogenmod forum but i have read that there are some problems with the new release regarding battery
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] darkalchemist:
Forums should be linking you to sourceforge for downloads. New release drains battery quickly, most likely because of the large amount of debug code.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] domy1985:
Do i have to be registered?

But i don't want to have the new release if it drains battery and there's no improvement
