Q GPS lock AOKP 4.04 - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

Is there a way to keep the GPS locked while the screen is off or the phone is locked? I have looked through all the power save settings and toggles and cannot find a setting for it. If I setup my tracks to record a route and the screen times out it looses track of me and picks back up where I am when I unlock or turn the screen on.

If you go to the AOKP main page there is a link for GPS fixes under the ROM file links. Here is a link for your pleasure http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1574718

[Q] [ICS] Why is it so ridiculous to use the back camera for unlock?

if I simply looked at the back of my phone to unlock it, it seems like that would still be faster than the ring.
Also, is it possible to turn off vibrate for the lock screen?
And can I add more options to the unlock screen ring?
Thanks to all the devs, especially the cm9 team and neobuddy89
Even with front camera face unlock doesn't work sometimes. And you can't see where the camera pointing with back..
Cm9 implement more options later
For now use app unlocks if you want more options. Like widget locker.

Latest Google Maps not working (according to reports, haven't tested), this is an important app!!!
A Github available so you can share your code. Android is open-source, and it is important that you share your fixes with the community, not just compile "closed" ROMs!!!

Massive battery drain sorry dont mind but the battery is good as far as i concern and some people also report that its having good battery life on my own experience i even noticed it is good not best ya compared to other CM version it is good
And I have problem with camera darkness plus vol up/down buttons not work for zooming (I set them in Advanced Options). Tethering not works too.

Same here..And I don't know why CM touch screen sensitivity always have different 'feel' compared to stock ROM, without notice I'm always touch the screen more tightly to prevent miss touch. I think you guys understand well
Ps. Since this ROM is nearest to official then I'll tell more CM bug:
The bass sound's ugly than stock. You can check with mort player with same equalizer (without DSP mgr of course). Also the equalizer freq change from 5 freq (stock) to 6 freq (CM) and if you slide bass booster on mort, the sound more awkward
Um..oh. Laggy gallery! LOL

Not only for messages but when someone is talking to you in WhatApp and others, with all notifications. I think this is to warn you that something happened when the phone was in standby. It's not a bug imo.
The same thing happens with others CM7 roms that I've tested and the AOSP too.
but until you use them do not light. remember that in another CM7 ROM, this does not happen if I went to Settings-> CyanogenMod-> Interface-> LED Notification, except that in this rom, there is no menu Led Notification
is a very good rom but i have a problem, i test smartass, v2, conservative and never enter in deep sleep always 245mhz (my min frequency).
ps: sorry my bad english.

That is common..
Market does not get updated to the latest version. In earlier CM versions, it used to get updated.
Market.
*edit Fixed the problem with market icon
Great ROM so far.
text messaging touch goes rumbled, maybe coz of sensitivity... hope to fix it on next release :clap: more power to Frozen Ace Team...
After two days of usage, I would like to report that this ROM has battery drain issues. Much more than the vo-1 version of CM 7.2
wifi?
Wifi does not work for me. It doesnt scan. When I turn it on in the notifications bar it just turns itself off again after a minute or so.
In the settings the same thing happens. (sometime here it even force-closes)
I found this in the ROM-Thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1263292):

Wi-Fi works fine, but when you turn it ON you can`t see all points, as on stock FW. You must go to the Wireless setting and insert your password there."
When I tried several times to type in the password and SSID it still didnt connect and just turned wifi off again.
Unfortunaly, this link http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/41455-cyanogenmod-7172-samsung-galaxy-ace/ does not work for some reason. (maybe just my computer...)
just checked, it worked: link is not helpfull

HyDrOG3N-ICS 14.04 Torchlight function

Since I cant post on the original dev thread:
the torchlight has a bug:
- works only once
- have to reboot to be able to use it again after it is turned off
reproduce:
- use torchlight by turning on (powerbutton hold and use funciton; has to be enabled in rom config)
- turn off
- try turning on again; does not work
- works again after reboot
mby someone can reproduce and confirm the bug;
it is the only issue I am having with the rom; no freezes everything is stable
this seems like missing reset of bool allow_on = true ;P
+1
But for me,i don't have to reboot.
turn on the light one time work.turn off
If i want to return on dont work.
But if i unlock and relock the phone.It work
Let the phone lock itself don't work
I'll have to unlock and lock him manually
I cannot even get the 14.04 version to run!
I had 10.04 and tried upgrading, without wiping, with wiping, etc. I even tried using different kernels, thinking that maybe there was a compatibility issue there but each time the boot stopped showing the pink frozen unicorn...

very well then it is a genuine bug, since I am sure you should be able to turn the torchlight on and off as you please and not go into automatic lock to be able to turn it back an
Don't know
I just test for feedback.
For me i enable this option in statusbar options and it works fine.
Hydrogen ROM is weak, and had too many problems to call it a full ICS ROM.
No External SD access, bad battery life unless you monitor everything for 3 days, and now bugs with simple things. I wish it worked, I loved what I saw when I was on it, but its just too janky for my liking.
INB4 flaming fanboys.

Have you tried to go onto the Settings and configuring the touchlight there? Try searching the thread, people have been posting about this issue, maybe the answer is in the thread.

GPS settings in ICS

There has been much discussion on the GB ROM about GPS signal going in and out when using Maps. I'm now on ICS (NRG ROM) and it takes about 5 minutes to lock for me, and sometimes when i'm driving the GPS signal will loose the lock and can take some time to get it back.
People have suggested to disable the Filter GPS speed and the sensor filtering settings in GPS status app. What's everyone's thoughts? What's the best configuration?
