[Q] CM9 on Samsung Galaxy S2 i9100 3 UK Network Provider - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

New to this forum so apoligies if this post is in the incorrect place.
I rooted and installed CM9 last night and tried to follow the noob guide which was not that clear especially when you don't know what flash means. I know I am a real noob I ended up finding a great video by searching Samsung galaxy s2 root. Had all the links and latest version of cf root.
I have to say CM9 is what the S2 should of been like !
I have a few questions though. Sorry in advance if these are noobie questiins.
1. On stock ics for my device when i chose a picture from gallery for wallpaper it would let you choose if you wanted it in portrait or across 3 parts. Now I have a box which I have to adjust and I can never get the size correct !!!
2. How do I get a seperate picture on my lock screen.
3. How do I get camera to save to SD card , there is no option in camera settings ?? would this be because google devices have no sd slot ? is so how can i change this?
4. How do I get the cool unlock effect then after I do that get the pin option ?
5. Anyway of adjusting keyboard options like key size (way to small at the moment) and feedback as vibration is too strong at present.
6. How do I get folders in the app draw ? Can only do it on homescreen. Very annoying as could do this previously and I am ocd with these things.
7. Found that if I use the camera there is a very slight pink splodge in the center of the screen. Never had this before ?
8. No 3G but i do get the H symbol occasionallyy pop up??
9. Battery life poor and really really much worst whilst using gps.
10. gps takes at least 5 mins to get a signal on navigation / maps even when i have it fully on.
11. How can I get notification numbers on the text and email symbol on the homescreen ? beleive its on stock ics.
12. Anyone know if whilst in rom manager I can update to the latest nightly build and is this the best way to update my phone now i am on cm9 ?
13. Sometimes my homescreen swipes are inaccurate ?
14. keyboard presses sometimes dont vibrate but letter appears?
15. anyone know how to get music player to look like this. http://www.xda-developers.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/cm9-music.jpg?139d23. the cm9 one looks grey and dull and has less options.
16. my videos on my sd card wont play ??
17. lost notes which came with the s2? where can i find it ??
18. how can i get gestures like cm7
19. how can i change themes as the option seems to be unavailable in the menu e.g its there but wont let me press it ?/
Thanks in advance. I know there are lots of questions here and all the little things here won't put me off using cm9 as its sooo much better than stock !!

+1 with the inaccurate home screen swypes and also when turning a page in moon reader pro....

blimey.. well..
answers to some.. .
2. not at the moment
3. Cant at the moment (use ICS+ Camera from play store if you want that)
4. i guess you mean Faceunlock.. read the CM9 discussion thread lots of questions answered in the first post)
6. is being worked on in nova Launcher but no others at present..
7.KNOWN ISSUE for most people since the phone came out...
10. there is a GPS fix you can get but you just need to experiment with radios etc,... again search the CM9 discussion thread
11.. being worked on on various launchers not a CM9 issue (believe Nova and Apex are working on this)
19. Themes are not essential as it is only a nightly build ..
remember most of these issues are known about and are varying in importance on when they are worked on.

thanks
Thanks so much for the answers.
Any idea why my battery is draining so much since install of this rom ?

Let me google that for you

Google ?
No point using Google. If I had found the answer there then I would not have created the thread. I have also emailed / posted cm direct but they state they won't reply or that in so many words. I am assuming that battery life has reduced due to rom but don't know ? That's why this thread was created ?

And yet, his answer provided you with the information you needed to find out yourself.
Common cause of battery drain is wakelocks, and his provided google search linked you to a ton of threads and links which detail what to do to find out what is causing wakelocks, and how to try to prevent them from happening. That will improve battery life.
"No point in using Google".... C'mon, dude.

[Q] Paranoid Rom Settings help

So just started running paranoid android, and I really like it, but I'm used to a few settings I used to have when I ran Liquid Smooth, and was wondering whether it was possible to get them for Paranoid Rom for S3, for 3.99
They are:
1. Can I add a brightness bar to the top of the screen? in the Task manager area bit?
2. Can I add a settings button in the top of the screen, in the Task manager area bit?
3. Is it possible to get menu long press for kill app?
4. Is it possible to get shortcut stuff to wifi and things like that on the task manager bit? I think its called a power widget?
5. is it possible to turn on the thing where I can swype left and right on the bottom of the task manager bit to go in between the two take manager windows.
I apologise if these are pretty mundane questions, I've tried racking through the settings area many times, but I don't know if its just not possible, or if I'm completely missing the setting, or if its just some place that I didn't think of.
Cheers

[Q] Imperium ROM v20.3 for Galaxy S3 I9300

Hello everyone.
I have a few questions after i recently installed this wonderful ROM on my S3:
1) When i try to change the color of the Notification panel clock, Network bars and Wi-Fi signal nothing happens (Using the Wanam Xposed Application). The only thing i can change is the batter icon colors. Is this a bug that can be changed later or am i doing something wrong? (Didn’t see an option to change the alarm clock color icon as well )
2) I have installed the ROM using the Imperium logo when you boot your phone but although its very nice its a bit noise when starting up. I have looked in the Imperium ROM features but i couldn’t find the stock Samsung startup logo in the download options. Can i get the stock startup logo and sounds? If not which one do you recommend downloading that is less noisy?
3) In all my stupidity i have installed the ROM with the stock music player (should have picked Apollo ) and not i regret it. Is there any way to get installed? Also, when i installed the ROM i thought i saw a sound mod that made the sound clearer or something cant remember what it was. Does this mod runs by default with any player or do i need a special kind of player to benefit from it. If so how do i get it?
I really appreciate all your help and im sorry about the noob questions
Thank you and regards.
3536854
Oh and i forgot to mention one more thing: when you press the Home button while youre in an application it doesnt go directlly to your Home screen tab but the tab where you were before starting the application. Is there an option for this as well?
Im sry to post here and i guess ppl who can help about this are mostly on the development thread but i have tryed to post there but im not allowed since im a new user
So can anyone please help with the above points or do i really need to make 10 posts so in can write in the developers thread where i should have been asking in the first place. Searching for every point of my issue on this forum is to much trouble for not to mention i dont think i would be able to find anything that specific.
Please try imperium v21. I tried them all ... And I mean all of the Roms .. Stock and nodded and this one is the best. Smooth as hell and no battery drain... With almost 4hrs of screen on... Battery is lasting almost 1 day.
Is the best ROM I ever used on s3 i9300. International model.
After 1 night of sleep the battery drain is 0.8%/h... Can't get anything better than this one.

I have the Imperium 2.1 rom too, and my battery is awful. over one night the battery drains 20% with nothing on (wifi etc.)

did u perform a full wipe - clear data/cache/system
Yes, twice... I'm gonna try reinstall whole ROM as soon i have time to do it. At the moment i replaced bogus apps like keyboard , câmera and dialer.
The only thing i can't workaround it is the status bar that keeps flashing black/white when i'm browsing or using google maps.
Thanks!

It's ok... I wanted to tell you few days ago i was testing new keyboards, and the device got frozen, it rebooted and it kept frozen on the bootanimation... i had to do a factory reset, do you know why this happened?
btw, I was wondering why there are so many old apps in the ROM? for example there's still the first Google Play in there...
and i'm maming a tutorial of how to install it, i was wondering if I could open it and change the APKs for more new ones... and if that would cause you problems...
thanks for reading
found something
Hey RainbowLaw, thanks for your update! I'm a happy user for your ROM!
I think the EDGE/3G/HSDPA icon is in wrong place. If i remember, on v1.6 it was over signal bar. This is easy to fix myself?

[Q] New XT912 Maxx user and lot of questions

Hello, everyone!
I´m new here, but using the forum quite a while. Since a few days i´m the prowd owner of a Razr Maxx.
First of all, the device is amazing, i need a phone for the work and not to play and >5" Display. A phone with a good battery-life and thats exactly what you get here.
So i´m using the spyder version but i´m in the EU so i need the GSM-Patch. First of all i´m using CM 11/M12. It´s very good and stable. I´m also using the One+ Launcher, which i like because i´m using as 2nd phone an iPhone.
But a few things i´m missing and maybe you can help me out with this things.
1.) Alternative to CM11:
CM 11 is good, but i also tried LiquidSmooth Rom 3.2. But after installing the GSM-Patch, the Rom was not stable. With CM11 no Problem with the GSM Patch. I also tried the 3.1 Version of LS but also no luck. I also tried DirtyUnicorn, which looked good and with a lot of features and included GSM support, but was also not stable. Same with Paranoid. Do you have a alternative Rom with GSM Support or Patch support for the XT912 Verizon Maxx that you can reccomend me?
2.) Statusbar:
In the statusbar is to much going on for me. After some time i get so much symbols for every update etc. also the one+ laucher is every time with his icon in the statusbar. Is there a statusbar where i can hide all this things and only can see important icons like calls/messages?
But i also missing something in the statusbar, the provider name. On an old phone i have the provider name in the middle of the statusbar, but now i find no option to enable it. Is this still possible? I used the phono-app which shows the logo, but thats not exactly what i want. But better than nothing.
3.) Lockscreen
I want a simple Lockscreen and i like the iPhone Lockscreen a lot, besides the missing widgets. Can you recommend a lockscreen like the iphone lockscreen with widget support?
4.)Dialer
Three things i dont like in the actual dialer. First when i open the dialer app, the first screen is favorite contacts, but i want as first screen the numpad.
Second, i also like the gui from the iphone, you have contacts only one click away from the numpad, now you have to know the name and type it on the numpad or open the contacts. Is there a better solution?
And at last, the dialed numbers are not in the "memory", when i put in the first digits from a called number in the history nothing happens. On my old phone (HTC) , it gives you matching called numbers when you click the first digits on the numpad. Is that possible?
So thats a big list, first i hope you understand it and second i hope you can help me with it
Thanks a lot!

1) I am xt910 user so I cant help you in this case. Maybe @sherri or @Ohmster could give you a clue?
2) in LS 3.2 10/13 go to Settings->LiquidSmooth->Status Bar->Advanced. Here you can enable 1) "notification count" to prevent long lined-up of similar notification, 2) MIUI provider label (to show provider name on the most left of status bar)
3) the built-in lock screen is enough for me anyways. If you want iphone-looks-like so bad maybe you should try using Launcher that provide iphone theme for lockscreen (just find it at playstore i.e Go Launcher)
4) We are on the same boat here. Keep me posted if you luckily found it first

Hope i find for the rest also a answer.

A "few" questions to the s10 Lite owners.

Hello!
I’m considering buying this phone and I’m heavily into customization, I have a few questions about what you can do to S10 Lite to personalize the experience and how far it’ll let me change things before I have to resort to root or custom ROMs that are risky and missing for now.
First, about the themes, I found two good customization apps for Samsung devices, Good Locks and #hex Installer, can you use together?
What’s the extent of their customization, using both or the best of them if you can only have one working, can you:
1. Have a custom accent color system wide? So the same color for toggles, volume slider, highlights, colored text, notifications, quick settings etc/ like on stock android?
2. Can you change quick settings buttons background shape?
3. Are you able to switch recents view to a vertical stack of cards with the clear button bottom center?
4. Can you change icons for individual apps with stock launcher?
5. Change the navigation bar height, button size and spacing between them?
6. I like two fonts, Ubuntu and Google Product Sans, is any of them available?
7. Where can I check Good Locks availability in my region? Also, can it become unavailable with updates?
8. Do 3rd party customization apps from play store work? Kwgt, Custom Volume Sliders, Custom Navigation Bar etc.?
Next, I have a few questions regarding general usability:
9. Can you get rid of google assistant/bixby? They can be installed, I just don’t want to ever see them or have them running when not launched.
10. Does the Always on Display work well, is it actually always on?
11. Can you have the AoD show 3rd party app icons with a notification counter?
12. Does it have any problems with 3rd party launchers, Nova specifically?
13. Have you tried the Non-root version of YouTube Vanced? Does it work without issues? Can you install it with MicroG and log in?
I’ve also heard that Samsung’s OneUI likes to kill apps and prevent them from running in the background.
14. Did you have any issues with widgets getting stuck, becoming unresponsive, not updating and not working properly in general because they get killed by the system, did you have any issues like this?
15. Did you have any problems with 3rd party app notifications? Are you getting notifications from 3rd party messaging, email and other apps? Do they still come in when the screen is locked and the phone is in deep sleep?
I’m sorry in advance, I know it’s a lot but I’m very used to having the phone set up my way and I don’t want to spend this kind of money only to have to immediately root it or put up with a phone that doesn’t work properly for me.
Lol.. This is huge. I'll reply to some.
7 Good lock is working fine. In my country is not available but no problem. You can download the apk, everything works. If you know what good lock can do, then most of your questions (1,2) are replied as you can change notifications colors etc, at least what good lock is letting you change. Also 3 yes, with good lock.
5 by changing dpi through developer setting you can shrink everything so shrink navigation bar. Other navigation bar apps also works.
8 kwgt etc working fine.
9 yes. Froze them and anythings else you want by package disabler pro app.
10 works fine. You select if you want it or not.
12 nova works fine. I actually can't answer about samsung launcher as i always use nova. If you use it, then most of your questions also being answered as you know what nova can do.
13 yes to all, i use it always. (I use the hacked completely black amoled version, not the gray one, last version).
14 I have a problem actually with 1 widget, eWeather. Is somehow change size some times, and when go to its nova page, it changes ok again.. But i haven't problems with any other.
15 I don't have any problem with notifications but phone is a bit strange. It has 2 deep sleep apps somehow and need to untick the apps you want to have notifications to both of them. It reminds me xiaomi
It is good as due to this probably it has amazing battery. But it is a bit aggressive i think. Some times i lost some notifications but it was probably my fault, I'm not sure. Anyway i don't think there is a problem there. But better have more answers to this.
My opinion is that the phone is fantastic especially in battery, but its all about what everyone needs more.
Perhaps my video there, the comment, some hacks, the description and xda link there may help you, read it. I updating everything useful i find by writing new comments there, so anyone interested check it by time to time. Most things i post there are working to most samsung phones.

Again, I can answer a few. Mine is completely stock (not rooted). I may have needed to change settings when I bought the phone, but I don't recall which ones.
9: I don't know about getting rid of the assistants, but I've never even noticed that they're present, so they're unobtrusive.
10: Yes, Always On Display does what you expect. I have mine set to switch off overnight, but that's entirely optional.
11: Yes, I get notification counters on things like Aquamail.
12: I've been using Nova since the day I bought it. No problems.
14/15: For context, I get annoyed by these kinds of issues, and I won't buy another Huawei phone for exactly these reasons. On the S10 Lite, as currently configured, I get all notifications and widgets update as expected (agenda, Google Keep etc.), so I'm happy enough. I had to turn off 'Adaptive Power Saving', 'Adaptive Battery' and 'Put unused apps to sleep' to achieve that, though, and I've added a number of apps to 'Apps that won't be put to sleep'.

Thank you very much guys! Your replies clarified a lot!
Did you/could you perhaps check if Good Locks and #hex Installer can be used together or if you have to pick one to customize the system?

I'm not sure if I worded it correctly in the OP so I fixed it now, but could you please clarify if this refers to the Always on Display?

Ah, sorry, misunderstood. I get 3rd party notification icons on the AOD but I've not seen a counter, I'm afraid.

I don't understand why.. One file name has the word "black" so i dont think i mistaken the files..
Try setting, go to general, display, and then choose the black theme therel settings - vanced setting - display settings (or something like this, i translate from my language), and there is also a black theme setting there. Although i does think this is the problem..
Try also the new version here :
(The specific link it's not pirate or something, it is only for vanced hack)

You must install no root, black arm64 version. I think you need sai application from playstore to install the file you will download.
