- Upgrading from earlier CM7?
Do a Nandroid Backup!

[CM9][Q&A]CyanogenMod9 General|DISCUSSION THREAD.

Looks like the developement thread of our CM9 is all messed up as noobs filled the thread with ETA's and questions.
DEVELOPEMENT THREAD- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1449649
I've created this thread for general suggestions and questions and answers.people can put the useful links(for developement) over here(by links i mean any updates in the drivers or anything else for the developement not just anything you found on the internet )
You still aren't allowed to ask for ETA's in either of the thread.this is just for questions and answers and NON-DEVELOPEMENTAL talks.
KNOWN ISSUES:
1. WIFI doesn't work perfectly. You will not be able to see any networks when you first turn it on. Add a fake network manually and the wifi networks will show up. Also, network strength doesn't work properly.
2. There is LAG in the UI due to lack of Hardware Composer. Waiting for drivers from TI.
3. Mass Storage won't work for now. It requires 3.0 Kernel to support the framework changes in ICS for UMS. To copy files to the device, use http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1389375 or mount the Mass Storage in Recovery Mode.
4. Backlight button doesn't work when Autobrightness is turned off.
5. Microphone doesn't record properly (Regression in Alpha 4).
6. Camera Force Closes sometimes while capturing the image.
7. Front Facing camera is stretched and is Mirrored at times.
8. Few third party Camera applications are incompatible. (They get stuck)
What Doesn't Work
Video Recording
Media Playback H/W Support
USB Mass Storage Support

flashing CM9 doesn't require any specific official update(like kpu or anything else).It requires rooted phone along with a CWM app.you can flash CM9 from any official GINGERBREAD update(like kpu,kpq,kp3 etc...) AS LONG AS IT IS ROOTED AND HAS A WORKING CWM APP

i assume anything you want doesn't mean abusing anyone or asking for estimated time for arrival(ETA for anyone who's new and doesn't know the meaning )

right .
some new user ask again and again about the ETA
never mind

Finally great! Now there should be less OT from now on, there cant be 0 OT, every once in a while some people will just choose to make another OT in the dev thread...

Please, people pay attention here. We all would kill the people that chat in the thread, but we are in different countries. No, seriously, if a noob say a question like, when is the release? or... did you fix video? don't reply in the thread, because doing that you only make the thread more and more unuseful for the developer. When somebody say something like that please kick your brother / wall or whatever but please DON'T REPLY!

Can anyone give me link to source ?

[Pre-Alpha][4.1.2] XWLSD stock JellyBean

Hello everybody!
Here I release an initial pre-alpha preview version of my latest work. It is stock Samsung JellyBean based on the latest WanamLite rom.
Features:
Based on Android 4.1.2 JellyBean
Based on CyanogenMod 10 (build: 23rd December)
Based on Samsung Galaxy S2 XWLSD (changelist: 889555)
Based on WanamLite rom V14.1
It has all the nice features a stock Samsung JB rom can offer (MultiWindow, better AllShare integration, new TouchWiz interface)
Screenshots can be found here
What works:
It boots
BlueTooth
Both SD cards
Vibration
Sound
There are a lot of bugs! It's definitely not ready for being a daily driver.
Download link: http://d-h.st/s7W
Installation instructions:
Do a full wipe
Flash with recovery
Reboot and wait (first boot takes approximately 3 minutes)
Every custom modification to devices have risks. Flash this at your own risk!
Have fun and enjoy!

All hail Adam.
First thanks to you.
I am awesome You are not

Really cool buddy

wok, great buddy. but can i know is calling and messages are working?? also data?? pls pls
i know its cant b for daily driver but with all of us it will b.
so, as usual i made a general thread here -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2173191
share all related this development there. let Devs work for the mobile in peace

None of them works yet. I tried with CM RIL and it gave network, but it has some unimplemented methods and gave "com.android.phone stopped" error.

ok as adam stated that calls arent working but let me give you review of the preivew version.
As this cant b used as daily driver but its like eye candy to us.
first impression was wow.
starting from the top:
1) toggles are looking great and working like charm. Its just like GS3 or note 2.
2) it has brightness bar.
3) setting button is on notification bar.
4) It has Touchwiz 5 (I think).
5) I can see all files in file manager,means file manager are working in case of checking files.
6) you can check all settings coz setting are working fine.
7) sound are working.
8) touch is working flawlessly but dont compare it with CM10.1 smoothness.
9) Bluetooth is working great.
so, its not enough coz bug list is more then above:
1) network is not working and when u select it manually it give u Sim is not inserted error.
2) wifi is not working. somewhere i manage to Let it ON but after that setting hung.
3) GPS is not working for me coz there is no network communications.
4) video not working.
5) you can't install any applications as its not detecting the internal memory(means application storage)
6) also package installer is not working so file manager is not detecting the applications. means if u tap over applications it will give u error "No application can run this" or like that.
7) camera is giving FC.
8) there is no boot animation.
so, if there would b any catlog application inbuilt then i could provide u the logcat of all bugs.
i donno how to take screenshot in JB(i tried all combination) but didnt able to take.
but adam buddy u are great. you knew it, that if u will flash the s2 rom over your R then it could brick ur mobile permanently. but you again did it..:thumbup:

Adam you greatness!
Update: I just flashed GAPPS and they work(Google Now crashes though).
Update:
30 mins of my usage: Bootanimation is the plain android 1(not samsung)
It runs just as SMOOTH as it should
It is the latest TouchWiz(With circular folder)
GAPPS are not a part of the rom. Can be flashed separately
Both Storages show on PC when usb connected.
Mass storage works for the Internal storage. Couldn't get SD card on PC via mass storage
Music Player works (Music square doesn't)
Gallery opens but full pics don't show(some thumbnails and low res pics show.)
Wallpaper change works.
Auto-brightness works
Multi-window works
A part of the dialer kind of goes out of the display(See screenshot)
Power off, reboot and hot boot are jumping me directly into the bootanimation and start the phone again
Video player, Camera apps crash.
Motion doesn't work I guess. I changed the lock to motion lock, locked the phone and the phone rebooted.
No network, wifi
Overall its great work by adam again. You are truly replacing Samsung for us now
*Screenshots attached*

Adam ur god for us...all hail adam! !

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why is WiFi not working?
A: I am already aware that WiFi isn't working. It is a problem with ath6kl drivers, it does not assign the correct MAC address (bluetooth works fine however). I'm currently reviewing commits made by TheWhisp in his GitHub for his Cyanogenmod 11 version for tass (Galaxy Mini 2) which solves the issue. Please do NOT PM me about this, or report it as a bug, because it is being fixed at this moment.
EDIT: Temporary fix can be located here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=56263735&postcount=15 (thanks @kk9999gada)
Q: When will the next release be?
A: The next release will be released when it's ready. Do not ask for ETAs. When a commit has been updated in GitHub, it will be added in new releases. If you want to help out, report the bugs either in this thread or in GitHub.
Q: What about OTA updates?
A: I'm thinking of introducing OTA updates for this version, although it's a 50-50 chance that it will push through. It MAY happen in the future, we'll see.
Q: What do I do if I have questions?
A: Post them in this thread, do NOT PM me about them. I check this thread regularly.
Tips to Avoid Battery Drain
A. Modify Kernel Settings
To do that, go to Settings > About Phone and tap the "Build Number" seven (7) times. You will now see "Developer Options" and "Performance" options in your Settings app. Go back and tap "Performance" and tap on Processor, then tap on CPU governor. Select "Lionheart" and make sure "Set on boot" option is checked. You could also try reducing the minimum CPU frequency to 122 MHz, although it is not recommended. Go back, then tap I/O Scheduler and make sure that "DEADLINE" is selected (it should be by default), then make sure "Set on boot" is checked.
B. Use the pico version of Google Apps
In the original post, the link to download Google Apps is the link for the pico version (about 37MB). It does not include most of the bloat that Google adds to its devices (Chrome, YouTube, etc.). You can install these apps from the Play Store if you need them, and you don't need to install them if you don't want them.

Pure CyanogenMod... sooo cool
P.S.
I really want to use this ROM for daily purpose but I require wifi so all the best for fixing the bugs

Wow.. Cyanogenmod 11 Android 4.4.4 KitKat for GT-S7500, Thanks Developers :good:

Thanks everyone.
As for the WiFi issue, I'm not really sure if the problem is case-specific. To those who are willing to try it out in it's current, broken form, it would really help a lot if logcats were provided.
Thank you!

Yeah, to make sure it's not only on my case. But those who are just willing to do so.
As for the theming engine, I haven't tested it yet 'cause there's no WiFi, I can't download themes to the phone. But theoretically, I'm 99% sure it works. I haven't modified anything related to Cyanogenmod anyway, so it should work as intended.
