check under CyanogenMod Settings -> Performance

if [x] Enable surface dithering

is checked
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Arkanius:
It is , that was the first place I checked.

This problem is really visible in dark wallpapers, you notice every transition from deeper blacks to lighter blacks
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sugar 7:
Thank s it s ok now !

you are the best !!!:)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Arkanius:
Disabling dithering and restarting seems to have produced the reverse effect, which is increase image quality. Can someone else confirm this
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] seriouser:
Anybody got a way to increase the speaker volume for media playback? The settings in the included DSP manager don't seem to have any effect.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DvTonder:
I get the intended setting effects. On = better image quality, Off = lower quality.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] umd:
I'm glad that you made it :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Arkanius:
Well I now compared with the same exact wallpaper in the exact same spot and yes it's working as intended

Basically it seems I never noticed the poorly compressed wallpapers I had. Strange, I'm usually nitpicky with these

JQ1 Feedback

Well, now that JQ1 has been up there for a few days now, does anyone have any feedback on how it is?

Of course it depends on this and that and the other, but just curious about the feedback! Been running JP5 pretty happily for a while now...

EDIT: Yeah, talking about the modem - sorry for confusion.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Ferdimage:
maybe read an actual jq1 thread for feedback?

Edit: is it the modem your asking? if so i used JQ1 it was great but JVE modem was better, with better signal and call quality..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] boarder.2k9:
I've been running it with bilboa's kernel havent changed anything significant and battery seems awesome. Obviously i can't back this up and for others their experience will differ but i genuinely reckon there has been some bug fixes in the modem that were causing battery drain as i got the whole weekend out of 65% battery! It was with light-medium use but still, for me its brilliant. (Hoping for even better now bilboa's got OC/UV). My advice, definitely try it man.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] boarder.2k9:
Try using pushing the right hand side of the equaliser up (except for the very last bar, only raise that slightly) and keep the very left bar close to default and you should hear a good increase in volume. I use this on mine and by clicking and unclicking the box i can hear a noticable increase in volume.

Hope this helps :D

Is it just me or does *#1234# to check your ROM version etc not work in CM7?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] qsec:
None of the sammy codes works since this is a aosp build.

But *#06# for imei works for example.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DagsJT:
Cheers, any way to find out what modem I'm using? Battery drain is far worse on this compared to the Samsung roms and just wondering if a new modem might fix it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] melorib:
Settings - about phone - Baseband version is your modem...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] svceon:
Yes, in definitions, about phone..

Lol, too late :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zoubidou:
just go to settings, About the phone, check your baseband version.

concerning battery.

No matter what modem you are using, WiFi is the most battery consuming interface.

The pb is that obviously the kernel does not switch of wifi when screen is off, thats why usually you get battery drain. In fact it looks like it is off, but obviously it is not.

I only switch wifi on once i need it, and then switch it off again manually, until this pb is fixed.

zacharias has a fix for this, but oviously his kernel is not tested with the latest 0318 version, thus it is a bit risky to use it, same thing with bilboa1 kernel. In fact flashing zacharias kernel only, causes problems, flashing it with the system files is causing other problems.

I think i will wait until zach or bilboa has tested and checked their kernel and updated whatever is needed. The source of 0318 should be available.

It would also be nice for both of the kernel writers if they would state what is the latest tested version of CM7 against their kernel, this would then prevent from unnecessary flashing force and back between updates and kernels, which sometimes F....U up things and you have to restart all over again with xxjm2.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zoubidou:
in fact concerning wifi again!!

in most wifi interfaces you can find a setting on powersaving. I don't mean switch off or on wifi, i mean really powersavings, like max settings min settings power settings for emitter and son on.

the switching on or of of the wifi might always be some sort of a problem because in fact it has to reconnect to the infrastructure, and even with fastconnect (wich exists in SGS) it might still take a while (few seconds). I you would set the wifi interface to max power savings whilest screen is off, it will still remain active and connected, just with less speed, power on will then switch to min savings, and it will work normally without the obligation to reconnect, thus it will be available instantly, and within a few microseconds at full speed.

In fact the power on of an interface like wifi might even consume more energy then the so called wifi max power savings, because it has to switch on full power, check the network reconnect to the infrastrucutre, and so on, and as with every electronic component you will experience a power and heat spike.

Conclusion and question:

Is there any way to to set the power settings, ruther then dumb switching on or off, of the wifi.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Jeshter2000:
About the wifi when screen is off . Can you use super power from the market .. It shuts downn almost everything when screen is off . Dont know if this helps . Just thinking allong with you guys......
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jimmy080705:
Just an update...fixed my bootloader so all good now... but u don't need to do a factory reset after installing initial.zip anymore....it works a treat with the initial from 18th... u may want to confirm and update howto
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
zoubidou, I did some research and found PM_MAX (default battery saving mode when screen off ? -> higher latency) and PM_FAST (hacked, constant low latency, probably higher battery usage/others report no change)

settings exist for the driver but there don't seem to be any other ones

FYI:

[KERNEL] data streaming/VOIP in standby, wifi module for HTC's OTA 2.6.32.15 kernel

since the base of our kernel is 2.6.35.7

we're missing out on some changes for the bcm4329 driver (if the changes are not included):

maybe you'll find another knob to tune power usage

I've got some work to do so I won't be able to do it myself

edit:

the name seems to be Power Save Polling

linky

now we need to find the same for the bcm4329 driver / device ...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] woeds:
Although wifi might require a lot of power when on, the biggest difference between Samsung roms and CM7 is the amount of battery used by the modem. I'm temporarily back on a 2.2.1 rom and the difference in batterydrain while idle is pretty shocking. When checking out battery consumption it's very clear that 'Cell standby' consumes way less on Samsung roms than it does on CM7.

I don't think any amount of wifi-tweaking or disabling of debug-code will get CM's batterydrain on par with Samsungs 2.2.1 stuff. Coolya mentioned Samsungs RIL-implementation is a dirty hackjob, and I really hope this can be fixed or optimized in the future.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] melorib:

I just noticed that I am the only sgs user who has allowed cm to collect anonymous data. I suggest that more off us do the same to give at least a little bit back to cm ;)

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] umd:
You're not the only one :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mcgibbaa:
Definitely not the only one - I do it as well! I guess there's a problem with their table showing how many users of each device are reporting stats, at least with the Galaxy S!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] umd:
Is there a different procedure for theming? I've changed some images and pushed it back but apps crashed etc. What did I wrong?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Arkanius:
I was scratching my head on why the blacks were all messed and every colour seemed wrong compared to the Samsung stock roms

Then it hit me, this is 2.3.3 which has a new color profile from Google which had a huge backslash

Installing another kernel with Vodoo color which brings the old values back makes me at ease.

So yeah seems all my jibberjabber about low quality images and dithering was not caused by well, low quality or dithering at all, it was the colours and gamma values which were wrong.

Not a codeworkx or coolya problem
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] melorib:
Early Titanium Backup need USB debug on to work, then it said: in newer versions of android you dont need it, and it worked without in 2.2.1

Now on CM7 it needs USB debug on again, when I try to backup with USB debug off it does nothing, just hangs in there... :confused:

Does anyone experience the same ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] brujoand:
Ah, great. The statspage is wrong then :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Arkanius:
Don't our devices report as Nexus S?

I think that might be the problem with the statistics
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] branalvere:
I don't think so, is nexus s even on the list? Does running a custom kernel affect it?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Razer(x):

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] shantzu:
I'd guess it would help a potential replier if you would explain what *exactly* you did and what exactly doesn't work (a logcat output speaks more than a thousand words, they say).

Also, the preffered way to theme stuff in CM is with the 'Theme chooser'.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] melorib:
Bluetooth is working again both ways, did nothing, not even reboot... :confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] umd:
I pulled framework-res.apk via adb. Changed some images by dragging into apk. Then pushed it back.

Besides I extracted framework-res.apk from initial rom file and did the same thing but it didn't work either.

Really simple process but I couldn't figure out why it doesn't work.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
:D

seems like the (CM7) system has a mind of its own

having good days and bad days :confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kenkiller:
The last time I did that for another custom rom it had FCs up it's creek all the way.....I don't think you're supposed to do that. Even replacing image files of the same filename also resulted in the same.

Replacing animations work, but not images. Or use UOT kitchen to change any images.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kenkiller:
If you're talking about sending files by bluetooth, I find that having the Bluetooth File Transfer app installed and it's sharing/receiving function activated makes a lot of difference as to whether the transfer succeeds or not.

Mind you, this is needed only on AOSP roms like CM7. On Samsung stock rom I never had much problems with BT transfer without any additional apps. On my Desire with Gingervillian (CM7 based), BT transfer was also unreliable until I installed the app.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] melorib:
I am convinced, and I like it, lets hope tomorrow the FFC is working again... :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] umd:
I'm pretty sure that works. I've been using that since I've Android phone. It doesn't work for apps but works for system apk's. Anyway, I'll try UOT kitchen. Thanks for the advice ;)

Edit: Looks like something happened to the UOT Kitchen.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] derrzredeem:
If it the .9 png's you are trying to change, you need to decompile it first then compile it back. You can use apk manager to do that.

If you are trying to change some icon, i think you can just drag and drop using zip manager. I've done it before on froyo.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] melorib:
I always used share with Astro or Quickpic from the phone and send with explorer from the PC, 2.2.1 and CM7, and it is working again...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] shantzu:
@Figure_desire: There's much stuff you can do wrong when you edit stuff in framework (like the 9.png files, compressing files, etc). A logcat output usually easily helps identify the problem.

@melorib: There are a couple of things that won't really work properly with bluetooth, for example you can't send some file types to your phone (for example .apk files) and after some flashes the bluetooth host address changes so you need to remove the device from your 'known devices' on your computer and readd it, so it readds it with the proper address. Since these are minor issues compared to the rest, we'll probably have a go at them later on.

There's no public interface for the collected data yet, but there will be. That would be why you're only seeing your own data.

Doe anyone have dictionary problems on CM7? The dictionary and auto complete / correct worked perfectly on Darky's ROM, but now the dictionary only contains contact names and some very strange words that dont make any sense. Im talking about the dutch dictionary which I have selected in the settings. Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug.

Also, I've experienced two freezes where the screen sort of dims and just does not respond anymore, it looks very strange. But it's been so rare its not really an issue.

I usually send pictures to the PC and updates to the phone, it works fine and fast, except for those 2 days...

As long as I have USB it is not a big problem anyway...

Any idea why FFC changed without changing ROM or kernel, I use the mirror app, after I installed the latest initial it worked 100%, showing front camera image, after flashing different kernel started showing rear camera in the right position, even going back to previous modem, now shows rear camera 90 degrees off... :confused:

Back cam is normal. Ffc activated by bilboa update Monday but cam rotated.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] JJ*:
Hey guys, first of all thank you for the tremendous work you are doing and have been doing in the past to make CM7 available to us. The phone is perfectly usable, I have one issue though:

Went to bed yesterday with the battery at around 6%, plugged it into the charger and when I woke up this morning, I only had a 59% charge. Since I'm monitoring the battery level with System Monitor, I can see that even though the charger is shown as being plugged in the whole night, the charge went up to about 100% around 2 in the morning and has been dropping ever since.

I searched this thread and saw that other people have been having the same problem, albeit with earlier releases. However, I didn't find a solution. Is there a solution to this issue?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] melorib:
Dont charge it overnight, same as with standard software, it stops charging close to 100% to preserve the battery...

It was very enoying to be awaken in the middle of the night by the phone when it was fully charged... :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] JJ*:
It used to stop charging, right, but plugged in it should keep the charge. I have had countless cell phones and never experienced a problem like this. I don't believe it's supposed to be this way.

BTW, if I don't charge it overnight than CM7 is not usable for me, at least not while draining the battery like it is right now. I can't charge the phone while working (12 hours).

I noticed that this has been discussed in the bug tracker but has been merged with an issue that in my opinion has nothing to do with this problem (and is, indeed, a non-issue). Can someone please look into this?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] melorib:
I dont think it was healthy for the phone to stay connected after fully charged, thats why it BEEPS and we could not disable the beep...

I either charge it by USB at work, or as soon as I get home, it is confortable and the same I did with samsung software...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zoubidou:
ok, super front camera is working besides the fact that it does not rotate, and even in landscape mode the image is rotated the wrong way. but you are nearly there.

I was reading about someone druling about screen off and screen on animations on gingerbread, they never worked on my phone... :confused:
