[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Jermu^:
I had JVB, then I flashed JM2 with bootloader, then I flashed CM.

After installing the rom, gapps and the latest nightly, I installed Titanium Backup and started restoring apps. It seemed to work, but from the 90 or so apps I had chosen to be restored, only about half were restored.

And after some time, I started having massive force closes of system apps like media and framework and etc. What am I doing wrong?

Sorry if I am asking stupid things. I'm not a first timer with CM, but before I haven't had force close issues.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gbohm:
you can't restore system apps it will not work!

user apps can work but just restore selected ones and freshly reinstall

wherever you can
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Jermu^:
I didn't restore any system apps, though.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zenosteam:
what are the reasons please ?:(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gbohm:
can you reflash and test which did that? could be interesting
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gbohm:
because it is illegal in some countries and is not supported because of morality reasons by the devs.

it was disgussed several times (search thread) and the cm devs had an intern discussion about it too
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Jermu^:
What do you mean exactly? But yes, I just reflashed without the nightly and now I am again restoring user apps. Let's see...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gbohm:
yes but please just restore selected ones.can you reinstall most of them?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Jermu^:
I just restored 56 apps and all of which I have tested work fine. I don't know what exactly is the problem, and whether I should install the nightly.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gbohm:
is it possible that some posts got lost/deleted?

ehm

ok again i don't think the nightly is the problem we both aggreed that a fresh install is better and that apps which need the ext-sd won't restore because the path is different right?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mikeinessex:
yh i noticed a load of posts gone missing wierded me out

oh ok fair enough just thought i was imaginin other posts where there but not lol
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mermigas:

Had JVB for a day or two but I just had to change back. The responsiveness is unbelievably better with CM7. Only thing I wish I had was JVB's battery life. :/

Which radio has proven best concerning battery life? I've tried JVK so far.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] TubeShaped:
as soon as batttery drain gets fixed I'm totally switching to cm7.

i dont care about the battery because ive got 1 spare one in my wallet..:D

thanks.. (Y)

Hy,

When my phone starts, I have a screen displaying all kind of colors. But, I flashed from a rom that was based on jvk with bootloaders. Is it normal ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] boarder.2k9:
I couldn't agree more man, i've found from using JPY, JPM, JQ, JVE and JVK, JVK gives the best battery life and for me the best overall performance. Will be awesome when battery is better, have you tried undervolting? I recommend bilboa's kernel, it provides awesome extra features and battery is best out of the 4 kernels i tried (plus its the most responsive). (note this is my opinion so don't bore me with troll comments).

Still can't get much more than 24hours with average use. (btw, with UV i only uv 100mhz and by -100mv as anymore is unstable for me).

I also use tasker for help with the battery life significantly.

all the best
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] boarder.2k9:
you are using the gingerbread (jvk) bootloaders, download JPU (or another with froyo bootloaders, some do not so best bet is JPU, go to samfirmware.com to download it) and then flash cm7 through cwm. I found i had to click repartition to get rid of the bootloaders.

Good luck
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] AnonymeLex:
Sorry, didn't look, cm7 is not yet based on gingerbread :p. Problem solved by flashing JM5.

EDIT: O sh**, phone boot always on CMW now that I flashed CM7. It has to be froyo, why not eclair x).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] AnonymeLex:
Is XXJP3 okay ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sianlang:
if ur trying to get rid of the jvk bootloaders...go download jm1 and jpu from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=846913 ...then flash jm1 follow by jpu after that flash cm7 again

How the Jimmy do we get multi-dpi on this rom??? Couldn't help but notice someone mention that...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] damianarnold:
I've had great success by simply changing the /system/build.prop

scroll down to ro.sf.lcd_density and set it to something like 200 from the default of 240
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ickyboo:
Its due to /data (place where prefs/configs are) . Samsung for some odd reason decided to use /dbdata in Froyo 2.2.1 and continued to do so in Gingerbread which has known to break a few apps like Titanium Backup and Launcher Pro (Both have been updated and fixed along time ago) amongst other apps. So if you restored a backup from a Samsung Rom to CM7 or vice versa then lots of apps will break and expect its config files to be at a dif location. Pretty standard. Just do a hard reset and start fresh as theres nothing you can do. Pretty logical ,no?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Razer(x):
What about battery? Has it been improved after Samsung's sources?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
it will my friend, it surely will :)

it's not an overnight thing - it takes time to merge Samsung's source with AOSP/Nexus S source

the CM7 kernel is working fine right now (besides battery drain and some other issues) so the best approach is to one after another replace parts of it with parts from Samsung's source & see how it works

Samsung has a very idiosyncratic way of doing things so some things won't work without their proprietary stuff (meaning they're dropping partly broken stuff/source when only using opensource parts)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] edint3000:
Thx :D

Glad you like it...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Stitch!:
Lost my cable, so Ive been stuck on CM7 for a week now. Not the best experience. Had some random shutdowns, lots of fc on games and a few times that I couldnt hang up a call. (yes I installed every thing correctly, followed all the instruction and tried different kernels)

Yesterday Phone was almost empty but I was gaming (dungeon hunter 2 FTW), anyway 3% battery left so I put my phone on the charger. 15 minutes later, phone dies of empty battery! I was like wtf, battery drain is worse than the charger can actually charge?

Normally I do a day with a battery with heavy use which is more than enough for me. Overall experience is quick, although its not much different from simply galaxy/insanity/ultimate Froyo with DamianGTO ultimate kernel. Like the idea of CM7, but in its current state its not "THE THING" to have on your phone atm for me.

Will flash Simply galaxy gingerbread when I have my cable back, heard some good things about it. Maybe try CM again later, but I personally dont see the added value so far.

I am not hating, only sharing my opinion/experience. Tried MIUI to and CM7 is def better than that IMO. (plus I dont like the MIUI iphone feel)

Anyway good luck with the development, must be a ****load of work now with JVB out. ;)

Peace
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] madmack:
same experiences here. phone died while charging and using navigation. :eek:

To fix it I had to lower the screen brightness to some ridiculously low value.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mrruin:
the problem both of you had was a phone that was running too hot to be charged. Unfortunately CM has a lower threshold built in than Samsung in their stock ROMs. The result will always be that whenever you use a CPU or GPU (or both) intensive app that heats up the phone, the charger will not work because the battery temperature goes above the threshold set by CM.

For many apps like games or GPS navigation where you need your screen on for an extended period of time this is killer. I do not understand why this is not at least somehow user or kernel configurable. But it is a show stopper for many many people.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] derrzredeem:
I thought this was changed in the latest several builds - my phone still charging at 51°C now (this is with bilboa/tk's kernel) and i think these kernel was build based on upstream.

Afaik, CM uses the battery threshold from samsung. So i don't think this is the problem. I might be wrong though.

EDIT: ok, now my phone stop charging when it reach 52°C, that's new

EDIT2: after the battery temp cool down, it won't auto charge again, need to unplug-plug it back to get it to work.

This is might be the reason, the phone dies when it should be charging.

~drz
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] madmack:
I don't think its the charging temp either as the phone never picks up percentage even when just plugged in. I've also checked the temps and they were around 48C.

I know when the phone is overheated; that's when the charging stops completely but that doesn't happen here.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mrruin:
if that is indeed the case then I would be one happy camper.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] atinm:
Logcat/dmesg or it didn't happen.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Stitch!:
Im not gonna go through pages of lolcat, so it didnt happen... and I wasted 5 minuts typing bull**** on XDA...Sure.. Now you can go back to 4chan atinm :p

Next time ill log it, but hopefully Ill be on a stable gingerbread before that. ;)

Peace
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
higher charging battery is actually an experimental non-stock feature that coolya ported from JPX (?) kernels

so only custom built kernels have it
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gbohm:
that is funny my battery keeps charging till it reaches around 50° no custom kernel...

hey zacharias i saw you fixes this backlit button allways on problem in your kernel did you just include an older driver?

lol

at least you didn't say:

logcat or gtfo

because then i would have fallen of my chair... :-)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] qsec:
New update on Opera Mobile that should fix Flash on SGS running CM7 ; )

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] derrzredeem:
Oh okay, didn't know that.

Haven't tested it on stock kernel before. ^^

~drz
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Tk-Glitch:
Flash worked with old version if moved to SD.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
no, it's a fix that comes with kangsterizer/bilboa1's LED notification implementation to also turn of backlight/softbutton light while screen is on after some time

:)

so kudos to him !

what means, in a terminal emulator after giving a command : pm not found ...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
1st question would be:

what command did you enter ? :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Szighy:
a pm disable command...but really doesn't matter what i type, when i hit pm, it gives pm was not found...it doesn't happened for me before :P

Flashing the 0420 Test right now, post battery reports later, i hope i get away with a nowipe :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kickassdave:
thinking the exact same thing too... I won't lose my OC/UV settings will I?

also.... if I want the 1.44Ghz kernal... do I need to re-apply the zip for that?

(I think the answer is yes... just making sure --- thanks!)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] endursa:
first thing noticed, wlan doesn't work right after flash, doesn't see my router

I'm using wpa2 on ch. 13 at home,

phone is set to use 13 channels, doesn't work either if set to use 14 channels.

Just reconfigured my Wlan router to use channel 3, now wlan works again!

NOTE: i had the wlan issue back with 0417 but haven't had time to test different channels back yesterday so just restored nandroid from 0410

I think the new wlan driver introduced in 0417 causes the issue!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] endursa:
you have to reflash the kernel for shure, but i would wait till an updated kernel from the version you use is available cause test versions with some random kernel isn't the best idea :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] joaoennes:
To get back the OC/UV you just need to reflash the kernel, because when you flash an update you install aswell the default cm7 kernel, so you need to reflash the custom kernel you want to use. But, as I said, you won't loose any settings.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kickassdave:
Thank you both for clearing that up VERY quickly :D

Can you let me know if it goes OK without a wipe?

I take it you would still wipe /system /cache and then do it?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] joaoennes:
You can wipe /cache, there is no problem. But if you wipe /system you need to reflash everything all over again, you'll lose everything.

Does this answer your question?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kickassdave:
thought wiping /data and /datadata would have wiped everything... oh well -- again thanks for the answers.:)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] codeworkx:
Don't flash a custom kernel onto this test build. It will kill the test. xD

The changes are made at kernel, not at system.

If you'll flash a custom kernel you're no tester.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kickassdave:
no problem, I'll leave this one for now, as I'm focusing on testing OC/UV on the device at the mo. I'll be keeping a close eye on this though :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] AnonymeLex:
Hy,

I can't see my contacts on my sim it says that their is any. Even applications can not acess. I put my sim in an other phone and my contacts were still there. I saw that in Account & Sync that the I have not the account sim that is normally here. I can call and receive/send sms. Any suggestions pliz? Sorry if I missed something...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jaju123:
Hasn't it always been a test? Or is this a very testy test?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] joaoennes:
You should synchronize your contacts with your google account, so you don't have to worry about losing them.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] AnonymeLex:
Yeah, I saved them on kies and they are on my sim, it is just cm7 that did not create the account sim. I want to stay on cm7 but I cannot if it can't read my contacts. ..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] madmack:
codeworkx

would be great if you could get the LEDs of the backlight to timeout so I won't need to switch to another kernel.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] AnonymeLex:
It is in test; it is very smooth and fast. For even more smooth you can take kernels that make your sgs more powerful than ever compared to other custom roms. But their is still little problems like random crash (I don't know if it has been solved); or buggy camera...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] crossjaw:
Did you save them in kies using kies format(.spb file i think) or in csv format...I had saved in both...you can use the csv file to load the contacts to a gmail account and sync them
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] madmack:
did you guys change anything with the touchscreen drivers ? the responsiveness is greatly improved in the latest test build. awesome

I can now fly type with no errors.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] joaoennes:
I did notice a better responsiveness aswell. Nice :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kar200:
Hi all,

Benn trying both Miui and CM7 and love both. I thought I might add my input in for this test release.

For me this is the first time the proximity sensor is switching off the screen. I may have been doing something wrong before I don't know.

Also the screen looks a bit darker than when I flashed the other CM7. I know you made changes to the screen so it is maybe the reason.

I just had a quick look around and the Rom is pretty fast.

I also was wondering what Dialer is everyone using? The basic one from CM7 is a bit too basic since the Galaxy does not have a hardware search button and the stock dialer does not have the search bar on the top. I also would like a dialer that gives examples once you start typing the numbers.

Last one would be what where can I get the themes? do I just install any CM7 or does it have to be compatible with Galaxy?

K.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] endursa:
i just use stock dialer, i got used to press menu and search :)

but you could try go contacts from market!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] massari90:
Installing now :D Lets see how it goes
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] runedrune:
Would it be possible to get the kernel only to test on Miui?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mcord11758:
I think you would have to dl the rom package take out the zimage/modules. Them dop them in a miui package and flash. Still not sure that is advisable right now
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] madmack:
initial charging testing with the test version are very positive.

did a 30min drive, Bluetooth on with music playback. brightness set to Max and navigating. guess what ? the charger started adding some percentage to my battery !!! kudos codework et al

now if only you can make these backlights turn off we have a winner :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] er1cha:
So it should be fine to do a no wipe update? I was going to just format cache.
