[Q] Problem with CM 7 - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I dont if anyone else encounter a same problem but for me after installing CM 7 i cant find G-sensor. I have SGS2 and i cant play any racing game which require calibration (asphalt 5, raging thunder). When i start game car just moves either in wrong direction or in circle. No matter what i do it is still do the same thing.
I am not sure but i think it is something that has to do with G-sensor which is not available in latest stable CM.
Any help would be appreciated.

sensors works fine for me.
Try a full wipe (data/cache/dalvik cache) and reflash

Touch screen phantom presses

Yes, I have searched the forum, maybe my search terms are just incorrect since I am new to android devices and primarily a windows developer. The problem is this, I have tested 3 roms, Miks cyanogenmod, the songenmod and now Matts cyanogenmod and on all 3 roms, after a few days of use, there seems to be what I refer to as phantom taps on screen rotation. Sometimes when I turn the device, the browser would open, which is set as the bottom right most button on Go Laucher. I assumed the problem would be related to the launcher and changed back to the stock launcher provided with the roms. I then found the same thing would happen in Ireader, which has the page next button located in the same spot when reaching the bottom of a page. Another thing is that the touchscreen stops functioning for no apparent reason, locking and unlocking the device seems to solve this, but its not what you want to happen while playing Drag Racing (and you know you play it too )
Does anyone have any idea what this could be related to? I have been using franco 19.4 cfs kernel and the latest goldenleaf because I figured the screen drivers would be the culprit, with the same result. Now correct me if I am wrong, but I am assuming that flashing the kernel would update /lib/modules installing the correctly compiled drivers for the specific kernel.
Any tips/tricks/help in this regard would be highly appreciated
You can try to reset sensors by clockworkmod recovery or other tool. Cheers!

Thanks for the tip. I can find not function to do this in clockworkmod or any other info about resetting the sensors anywhere
Am I the only one having this problem? I have looked everywhere and cannot find a solution. At this point its driving me insane since its activating apps or exiting apps at the most inopportune times. Even shifts for me when I play Drag Racing, which is highly annoying
I only know you can reset Screen orientation in AmonRa..
I Thought it might be Go Launcher doing this, so I did a rest on the rom, used it without installing other software to eliminate that possibility, still happens though.
Let me try that, thanks so much.

[Q] Real Racing 2 not working on ANY ICS roms?

Hello XDA.
I have done every possible thing, but I just can't make this game work on ICS. Is this a general problem or what?
If someone knows a fix, please post it here!
Some details: The game launches, shows me the yellow EA icon, takes me on to the opening cutscene, then loads and plays menu music, which has a slight lag in the beginning of it. Then nothing... After a while the phone kills the app, no error message.
Again ICS is not yet released you have a buggy beta test rom multiple problems .
jje
Real racing 2 doesn't work on gingerbread, nevermind ICS.
Unless they have recently updated it, it crashes a few seconds into a race.
The work around was to not use cockpit view.... But this is the one I wanted to use.
The comments on the android market seemed to show similar problems from users with SGS2.

Kinda funny. They make the best game on Android (imo) and then they break it.
Way to go, EA/Firemint
I've just read a comment saying it's finally fixed for SGS2
Time to give it another go

Agreed, I've had consistent FC's with Real Racing and that goes back to GB ROMs. You'd think EA would either update their software or take it off the Market. Bummer too, Real Racing is a kickass game in iOS. I'm on a i777.
I know this is in the galaxy s2 section, but it works perfectly on my HTC sensation, and I'm on ics now. So it's not the os at fault, but could it be to do with the tegra chip or some other hardware compatibility issue in your phones?
not for me either
Hi this game didnt work for me either im running
Galaxy s2 i900
Ics 4.7.3 final rom with siyahs 3.2.3+ rom
Same problem installed great downloaded updates all 9??mb of it only for it to load and fc on me too first i heard of this game looked awsome too

Have same problem after ICS update, tried to reach EA several times and no success. Also tried to refund on Google Plaay for the Real Racing 2 and no success..
So we have to wait an update, or a work around solution.
There is a new version floating around which works on ICS. Real Racing 2 v1.11.4.000540 HD. It is not available in the Google Market (play store) yet.

Compalitible with Galaxy S2 ?
Real Racing 2 is available free for the Galaxy S3 on the Samsung App Store. This Version did run on my GNEX as well. I had to sideload the 400 mb data file and turn wifi off. Otherwise a stupid alert would pop up.
Works on the S3 perfectly. Works on the GNEX with the workaround. I cannot comment on the S2 behaviour...
Bearing in mind that there IS a version running on ICS, we should see somthing on the Google Play Store as well...
version 0.00540
this version works just downloaded and i didnt actualy start playing but it went further then previus when it freezed after intro video
search for this on google becouse i cant post the lnk..

[Q] accelerometer axes are wrong on some apps

I have this issue on cyanogen mod 7.1 maybe.
some apps for example for ar.drone 2.0 i use this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/...1bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5wYXJyb3QuZnJlZWZsaWdodCJd (maybe someone know this?) when i move in front this accelerometer go left instead front, and if go on right instead back.
Possible axes are wrong direction on some apps. But the things more strange not all apps have same problems...if play a game race car is correct direction so what wrong?
Sometime others apps is correct but not all apps have same direction correct. Dunno if this issue have something to do on mod 7 or issue for only apps? Wasnt first time happened me...is kinda a bit annoyng.
Someone have same problem experience about it?
I hope can solve problems with cmd 9 but im waiting when is all stable next months.
This is a known issue at least in CM9, I believe

Play Store missing aps

Hi all,
Im currently running cm10 20121205 and flashed gapps 20121011.
problem is now play store basically returns nothing. I installed shadowgun deadzone and asphalt 7 previously on cm9 from play, but deleted. now on cm10 i cant even search for them. they dont display in search results.
i'm running 132dpi, however have tried on 160 as well.
i've edited buil.prop to samsung SGH-T989 to see if that helps (hadnt done that on cm9), but no.
has anyone else got/had issues with play only showing limited results? how did u fix it?
thanks

Have you tried update-Rolands-Lite-V3-JB-4.2-Gapps-Extras-signed.zip, it's worked for some.
ended up re-installing lcd density modder pro and installing the fixed market from there (not the framework).
its an old version of the store, but it works

I'm running the 01/06/13 official cm9 nightly. Whenever I open a compass app (I tried 2), the TP crashes (instant reboot).
Here's the link from rootzwiki, where someone else is experiencing the same thing :
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/38033-touchpad-gyroscope/page__st__30
I've installed on Oat's CM10 and am using Compass by Catch. Com and haven't had any problems . It appears the problems reported so far relate to CM9. I'm sure it will get sorted .
Change log?
Is there one?
I have patched to 12/16/12 jcsullins for testing only. Compass sort of works. Can't see anything else.
I'm sorry, I understand gyroscope was the last bug to get fixed on tp but what use is it to us?
Sent from my HTC One S using xda app-developers app
I'd think it would let us play games like Riptide, NFSMW or Asphalt by tilting the TP like a steering wheel as opposed to touching the screen. Could also help with maps and navigation I'd think (among other things)...

I was already able to tilt steer. That's the accelerometer.
Sent from my HTC One S using xda app-developers app
Isn't the Gyroscope just a 6-axis accelerometer? I'm probably missing the concept. What is the Gyroscope patch for? I just tried the 3b patch and feel like I just got the tilt steering working the first time, albeit inverted. Beautiful progress IMO. i didn't even realize it was an issue until the patch since I don't really use it for anything and i use my phone for maps. Would be interesting to see if this affects Google Sky Maps.
A gyroscope would be more accurate than an accelerometer for a steering control. An accelerometer is going to read zero if you are moving the device at a constant velocity for example. A gyroscope measures angular velocity, which should make for a much better response on steering controls.
Great work on the patch, I never knew the touchpad actually had a Gyroscope. As others have said, roll & pitch seem to be swapped with each other (v2 and v3).
If any of you guys need the APK for Gyrospace, grab it here.
