Take a look at zacharias thread, i think it's there in the first post.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mariotme:
cheers will check it out
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DarkyHD2:
Hi, thanks for your hard work! I've installed CM7 on my Galaxy S I9000 with success, thanks!

I've one question, now that Front Face camera work, it's possible to do Video call on 3g network? Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] derrzredeem:
@mariotme

sorry, it wasn't there apparently.

here you go.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mariotme:
Thank you so much m8 I really appreciate it.

Ill give it a try to see if I get better battery consumption.

- using bml_over_mtd on updates now (i9000)

Devices which didn't boot after applying a update, should boot after this one.

If there are bad blocks on boot partiton of your device, we'll use bml_over_mtd to flash the kernel which takes care of bad blocks.

If there are no bad blocks, the regular way of using flash_image will be used.

SOLVED external sd card problem:

The key is, to use JPU as basis rom and not JPY !!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] CQDOTCOM:
Anybody knows how to enable more options in the tablet tweaks section, like those honeycomb style of on-screen home, back and menu button? or are those only for tablets?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pcboyy:
..There is no such Preparing Sd Card.. the bootup is so fast. Much faster than Samsung's rom. External card working like normal in 'External_sd' folder. Not emmc
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ickyboo:
That's because JPU has 2.2 bootloader, Didn't think JPY came with one.

You could have also tried JM2 and JS8 (known to have bootloaders)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mariotme:
Guys sorry for the noob question but am kinda new to CM7. Is it normal the the cpu is idling 40-45% while phone is idle? Osmonitor showing two android system processes flunctuating in usage while the phone is fully idle.

Again sorry if my question was so noobish :)

Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zengfengwu:
it drains down 10% per hour!!!!!!!!!!

why? what's wrong?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cocchiararo:
Did you enable the battery % and have the phone currently charging?

I had that problem
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] alihaydarf:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] alihaydarf:
what about custom kernels, like zach's and bilboa's????
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] codeworkx:
you have to wait until they've included bml_over_mtd in their update scripts.

zacha probably has because he’s using the buildsystem.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mariotme:
Yes sir you are correct! Bat percentage is on and the phone was charging
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sago62:
guys, I flashed the latest build, but I do not understand the changes ... you know them?:confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Manadar:
If you could update w/o problem with earlier builds, then the latest build is useless for you :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sago62:
ah ah ah ... now is flash! okay ....

fm radio does to you?

XXJVK

I was using CM7 for its reliability, when it failed twice to recognize the SIM card, had to go back to Samsung...

JVK Gingerbread feels as fast and smooth as CM7, uses way less battery, dialer and camera are much nicer, I miss Honeycream theme + notification bar, home and back buttons customization... :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g00ndu:
I beg to differ. JVK Gingerbread can never be as fast or smooth as cm7 or miui, just to set the record straight. :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Mikulec:
when it comes to UI smoothness there is no difference, some apps load faster on CM7 but that is the price for fully working parts that are not working on CM7.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g00ndu:
Maybe that is what you experienced. However, it was different for me. :)

But coming from someone who had said battery life is similar for cm7 and samsung 2.2.1 rom, and now he says the rom uses way less battery, I just can't help to feel that the post is meant more for himself than any other people here. :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Mikulec:
We all know that melorib has his "weak moments". :p

I am using Juwes JVK which is way better then other custom JVKs I have tried.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] digitalcoder:
@sago62, your English cracks me up.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] melorib:
If you refer to me you are confusing what I wrote, my phone with 2.2.1 drained 1% per night against +13% for CM7, wich was similar to 2.1 original Samsung ROM... :p

If you say JVK performance is significantely slower than CM7, you never tested it, you probably tested JV1 before CM7, as I did, and that was defenetely less smooth... :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sago62:
I'm sorry ..... I do not speak English! if you want to speak Italian:D:D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] melorib:
I only rooted JVK with CF-Root, is it worth to use Juwes or Doc´s... :confused:

I am fed-up with changing every other day and getting errors after all was well... :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] junkyhlm:
Im on latest nigthly and my phone drains 32% battery over night (about 7hours), an average drain of about 4.5% per hour. Huge difference from 2.2.1 that drained < 10% over night. The JVK leak drained 20-25% over night.

I wont go back from CM7, i absolutely love it and want to contribute with bug reports etc. My experience is that CM7, altough its flaws is wastly better than both stock 2.2.1 and the leaked JVK 2.3.3
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mariotme:
guys today when my alarm went on i woke up and wanted to switch it off the phone just froze i had to restart it. anyone faced similar problem?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] T53N:
Too bad we lost you to Sammy...I know JVK feels als smooth as CM7 and i do miss a good working camera and compass. But I'm confident these issues will solved in the future.

I think it's just the feeling of freedom and not being forced to Samsung...I like community driven projects :cool:. But then again, maybe in the future I'll encounter some bigger problems and will go back also...;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] melorib:
That was my intention until it stopped recognising the SIM card, I need my phone first to make and receive calls... :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jornbjorn:
I agree that jvk is just as or more smooth than cm7. Even new doc rom with newest speedmod is just as smooth as cm7. This is tested with ext4 and adw.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g00ndu:
You also said that you can get 1.5 to 2 days (48hours) of usage when you are on cm7 too. And you also said that phone idle is 1% per hour. But now you say that the battery drained 13% overnight and that can only be true if nightime = 13hours. :D

In addition, you also said that cm7 was so good that you don't see a need to test out jvk. :) Pray tell, if this jvk fails on you, what rom would you choose then? :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mermigas:
JVK is a good try. I've tested it last week for 5 days for only one reason - Camera.

I was abroad for a businnes trip and I had to take good pictures with pinch zoom control.

OK battery life was great but immediatly I went back to CM7 since the phone was luggy at times and with numerous force closes.

Lets hope that camera and battery life will improve
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] radiohead_apple:
I'm using 04102011 and my battery drain is 1% for an hour which is not bad!

my problem is BACK and MENU touch keys which don't turn off when they're touched till the screen goes off

I just wanna know does this happen for everyone???

and by the way Zacharias told me to use his or Bilboa's kernel to solve this problem but I need usb tethering so I haven't tried it yet!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] melorib:
I measure drain since I last use the phone, around 19:00 week days, do your math before trying to discredit me... :p

ROMs are not my team or religion, I use the one that works for me, changed many times, and will change again when I need or want, whats the problem... :confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Mikulec:
Definitely worth a try.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g00ndu:
I'm not trying to discredit you, my friend. I agree that I don't do my maths, but then again I did a search before posting it.... :)

Anyway, let's not stain this thread any further, and since you are on jvk, perhaps you can now participate more actively in [Ramad]'s thread on the stock jvk.

Good day. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pacoforet:
1% /hour? Im sorry but I can't belive that. Im having like 8-10% drain /hour with 2G and nearly everything turned off. Even in flight mode you wouldn't get that 1%. Screenshot it so we can see ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] melorib:
Dont like to hear about problems in "your" ROM, no problem, I will go...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Mikulec:
what kernel do u use?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] radiohead_apple:
just settings/abount phone/battery use would satisfy you?! :)

and how about my question?!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g00ndu:
external sd / usb tethering fixed / touch button issue = cm7 kernel

external sd / usb tethering broken / no touch button issue = bilboa's / Zach's kernel

Your pick, your choice. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] digitalcoder:
No ****! I wish I could speak Italian though, everything sounds so much better!

P.s. meant it in a good way, your English is all good, there's enough there to figure out what you are after.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mikeinessex:
hey people sorry for a stupid question but where and whats the easiest way to check the changelog for the updates?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] wanam:
I have too ~1% on idle mode and wifi off/3g ON, with codeworkx kernel and setting cpu governors to "conservative".
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mikeinessex:
but then u also have samsungs layout, which i dont like, i like the way cm7 is like nexus s with the dialer/contacts and other stuff.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] wanam:
First post and updated here.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mikeinessex:
the first post hasnt been updated tho
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] branalvere:
Juwes is excellent and feels snappy as CM7 for any regular tasks. The totally monochrome theming will not be to everyone's taste but it works well.

I have used pretty much every build of MIUI and for me it needs overclock to feel smooth. If someone is able to get overclock on JVK it will feel supersmooth IMO.

As it stands though, nothing feels as smooth as CM7 without lagfix or OC
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] junkyhlm:
Meh! You are stuck on tiny details, who needs the phone function anyway? ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Judim:
there http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/...d-7-for-samsung-galaxy-s-phones-experimental/
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] funkateer2:
Melorib, perhaps did you play with unlock settings, that could make your sim not to be recognized?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g2leo89:
Should lagfix be disabled before flashing cm7 for the first time from froyo rom?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] junkyhlm:
I disabled my lagfix before CM7 install. Better safe than sorry.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] radiohead_apple:
here is my screenshot the steep in the end is because of Wi-Fi which I used continously for web-surfing and downloading from market for 2 hours which caused to battery drain about 25% and I think is much better than not bad!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] andrewin:
JVK is good enough, but still not stable.

If you are on CM7, you have voodoo sound, OC/UV (with custom kernels), fast speed (far ahead JVK) and one day on battery. Apart of this, CM is just great for me.

If you are on JVK, you have more stability, 2-3 days on battery, but NO custom kernels with voodoo sound and OC/UV.

As for me, I stay on CM until Gnusmas release their 2.3.3 source, and then let's see. If CM battery life will be fixed till that time, I will keep it & donate.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] vicelord.leo:
This rom is preety stable and very fast... But the only problem i face with this rom is the call hearing problem.. Whenever someone calls me... He doesnt hear my voice but it works fine when i call them... I have clean installed CM7 latest built but still the same problem. Switched the modems also but no use... Anyone please help in this matter... Dont want to use other rom except CM7 now..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] radiohead_apple:
I don't have this problem at all , I use JVK for radio which is the default one and is good

maybe wipe cache and dalvik cache solve the problem and also a factory reset again!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] branalvere:
I completely agree but for one point - jvk is as stable as a stock froyo afaik. I've been trying it for 2 days (juwe) no crashes, no fcs, no weird behaviour at all.

I had this issue, fixed with JPM radio and a kernel reflash don't know which fixed it but it did

I tried all the radios in CM7 but kept returning to jpm
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pacoforet:
Whats your setup? Kernel? Modem? 2G? Wifi? Etc, Please! :)

I am testing battery life and the big significant thing I can say is that on 2G, battery life is MUCH better.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] melorib:
I use GO Launcher, RocketDial, Handcent, Camera360, Epistle, Quickpic, Miren browser, just like with CM7, besides the notification icons, no big difference...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] melorib:
I even did an initial instalation, lots of trouble for nothing... :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mertkan:
i thought the headphone controls works after "03312011 -headphones" update.But still i can't pause/play the music by the headphone button.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] radiohead_apple:
I use 04102011 and I haven't changed kernel and radio (I think both of them are good , kernel is made by Codeworkx and the radio is JVK)

I use advanced task killer for killing the apps before the screen goes off!

and here in my country 3G doesn't exist unfortunately! :(

so I don't know the taste of 3G but I think 2G is also causing a lot of battery drain when the screen is on and is being used for web-surfing,gmail,market,...

at the end I agree with you that battery drain is not like 2.2.1 and 2.3.3 but much better than previous nightlies and I'm really eager to see much more battery :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] T53N:
I think you had "Disable lock screen" ticked in the Tablet tweaks settings.

In that case the SIM card will not be recognized after a reboot or even after installing a nightly again.

:o
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] melorib:
How did it happen, I had been on the phone, I tried again a few minutes later, nothing... :confused:

Also, shouldnt it revert to default with an initial installation... :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] vasillek:
cwm

Guys, everything working all right, except the known bugs.

BUT

Clockwork backup is giving me errors, cannot create md5 sum! cannot restore this backup afterwards.

Is this normal? Or where is problem?

Im bit nervous running test version without even backup =)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tingen:
It's a known issue. You can see the issues here:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] leomak:
i guess i m stuck because I didn't disable the lagfix? now i m always stuck in the cwm whatever i flashed.....any method to redo the whole thing
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] darkalchemist:
I didn't disable lagfix before flashing etc and I got it working first time following the instructions....
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ashwinds:
While the bug is fixed, you can manually generate a md5 using adb shell and restore it.

Run backup from cwm. In adb shell, go to the directory the backup was created (usually /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/date-timestamp-of-backup) and run:

md5sum *img > nandroid.md5

Restore will work after that.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] vicelord.leo:
Mount Data

Can you please educate me how to know if the data is mounted in CWM. Also if not mounted... How shall we mount it?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] codeworkx:
Did you use "reboot recovery" command while doing the initial steps?

Then there's no way to boot into android.

# adb shell

# mount
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] vicelord.leo:
Can I mount without Using adb.. i mean from CWM is it possible to mount data ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gtg465x:
Can't believe it took some of you this long to run into /data issues. You guys must never turn off or reboot your phones. I turn off and reboot my phone quite a lot for various reasons so cm7 is completely unusable for me. If it weren't for that I would probably be running it full time.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] derrzredeem:
Yes, in recovery > mounts & storage > mount /data
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] darkalchemist:
Erm, rebooted with every update for CM7 posted so far plus a few more besides (especially when trying to get into recovery) and I've had 0 problems so far with the data partition. As a note, after first flashing CM7, before reboot, I mounted and formatted data then did all the resets before booting.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pacoforet:
Me too, 0 issues with /data since release.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mermigas:
Same with me. No problems with / data.

Waiting for the next update
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] -jacky2k-:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sago62:
guys, I'm undecided whether to install a kernel bilboa ... in miui went very well. you have suggestions?:p
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] layercake87:
hey,

i ignored this rom until now since i'm not so experienced in flashing roms and don't want to destroy my phone.

Is this rom fully working now and is it better than the other gingerbread roms which can be found here ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] joaoennes:
You should definitely try it. From my personal experience it is better than the others stock or custom gingerbread roms. You will not regret.

Coolya and Codeworkx are doing a fantastic job.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
osmonitor kinda itself consumes A LOT cpu power

better log in via adb shell and run top that way you'll see what really uses stuff in idle (keep in mind the battery loading process and animated battery icon also causes some load 2-20% - if percentage or not)

what a pity - you would have been the perfect candidate for my new kernel with a new WIFI driver - since you're the dude who uses WIFI most of the time, right ? :o

it is better :)

for me it uses around 2-3% (concerted from 1% with momax 2700 mAH battery)

yes, the new kernel release should fix it

constantly staying on softkeys are also fixed - by courtesy of bilboa1 :)

currently yes - with newer kernel both should work again

you use WIFI often radiohead_apple ?

because then the new wifi driver might be beneficient to you

what radio (modem) are you using, btw ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zolah:
Wassup guys,

few questions...

1) Hows the camera working these days? I need it pretty stable because i have a baby im constantly recording and taking snaps of.

2) People are giving all kinds of feedback about battery life... If you have 3g/HSDPA enabled and left your phone on standby overnight how much drain would you get ( I realise there will be slightly different answers to that question so it might be a waste of time asking LOL. )

3) In the following link ... LINK it shows the following...

Galaxy S GT-I9000

Sourceforge: link

Bootloader: download

Is the bootloader download for the froyo bootloaders?

4) If above bootloader is for froyo to downgrade before flashing does this just get flashed through PDA with update bootloader UNTICKED!.

5) Does JS5 with the NEW written next to it on samfirmware.com have the froyo bootloaders included... Also does JPY include bootloaders? ( I have both of these saved on my HD atm...)

Thanks for responses to the above :p
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] radiohead_apple:
I enable wi-fi when I need to check my emails or download from market and also for web-surfing I mean it is not always enabled

I'm using JVK which is the default radio for 04102011

and by the way I'm looking forward to your new kernel...:)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] robbiev80:
Holy ****! 1% a night. Was the phone off??? lol

oh I forgot to add the mandatory :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] melorib:
Do some research on XDA before making useless comments like these... :p
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] robbiev80:
Just because I called bull**** on your 1%/night claim doesn't mean I haven't done the research.

Has anybody else had this kind of unreal battery drainage? I've used multiple stock/custom roms and modem files and none ever came close to draining at 1%/night rate.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] vukandric:
I can confirm 1% battery drain with docs froyo roms and speedmod kernel. I even had one time 0% drain for about 7-8h :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dennishylau:
Confirmed, also with doc's + speedmod
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sayli:
@zacharias I personally use the wifi everytime :P

And wanted to add that the last nightly is just perfect atm! Went back from miui to this coz miui started to reboot every 5 seconds of use maybe i did somethin wrong but it wasn't that stable! Spb shell 3d is superb with cm7 too :P
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mertkan:
anyone knows about this??
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
haha - another candidate to try out new wifi driver :)

thanks for the feedback !
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mikeinessex:
hey people, i see here http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/...d-7-for-samsung-galaxy-s-phones-experimental/ that the camera is not under bugs yet my camera takes very long to load up and has lines over it? is it just me or should camera be perfect?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mariotme:
I guess you had the leaked JVK rom installed before flashing CM7? if yes thats because JVK boot loader ;) u should have flashed stock JPU stock to get 2.2.1 boot loader which is compatible with CM7.

Regarding the Camera takes some time to loads thats normal we all have the same issue
