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.

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.

Here is a thread dedicated to all PA Users with a lot of questions on their mind
Through this thread (and of course searching), we can actually avoid posting redundant questions at the dev thread..
also, if we can avoid (or atleast lessen) redundant questions at the dev thread, we can easily scan through updates too!
I hope this could help a lot of users, cheers!

Call recorder can be added using 3rd party apps.
Try searching for it on PlayStore
RAM Usage: There's a Memory Leak issue on all AOSP based JB ROMs for S3 International.
The effect has reduced since previous releases, but still present. Give it a try & see if you can live with it.
Most can.

Is there a way to activate USB mass storage option in PA. There are 2-3 apps on XDA and they work in Samsung Based ROMS.. but not in PA..... what to do?

For any AOSP based ROMs, no.
Samsung decided to remove the USB Mount feature in S3... for some goddamn reason.
For ICS there was the UMS Mount App, but for JB there've been mixed results.
Feel free to try it out!

No. Not unless you Wipe Data manually
(Its an option in CWM recovery.)
As long as you don't wipe, you won't lose any apps, EXCEPT the gapps.
Every time you flash a ROM, you need to flash a gapps package immediately after the ROM flash, or you won't have the PlayStore, Gmail, Now etc... the google stuffs.

I don't make the hwcomposer. Those are Samsung props
CM handle the codes, the best they can.
So far, videos seem to work perfectly for me with the new HWComp.
If it fails for you, there's nothing wrong with the old one as well. Both are super smooth & worthy of daily driver! :good:

Love this rom but....
Hi,
thanks for opening this thread...
i love this rom however, i need to restore back to the stock rom for the following reasons:
while on: 2.1:
Browser started crashing after going live for 8 hrs (read from mulitple threads that it's likely a memory leak issue on CM10) (happened on stock and chrome browsers)
Keyboard will not come up when cursor in on a write field - CM 10 issue as well?
Battery drain out fast - need to reset batt stat?
One instance, my camera was not working! - Error msg: Cannot connect to camera. (need to reboot)
Gets feverish - Screen was flaming hot.. like a high fever kinda hot.
Sluggish speed while going from page to page or opening settings page. (Memory leak issue again)?
while on 2.10.1:
Browser started crashing after going live for 8 hrs (read from mulitple threads that it's likely a memory leak issue on CM10) chrome browser
Gets feverish - Screen was 'above the normal' hot.. like a mid to high fever kinda hot.
One instance after using the chrome browser which crashed on me, my phone function was not functioning! - the other party can hear me, but i can't hear the dialing tone and the other party. (a reboot did not help either) - major reason to revert.
I am using the international version of S3.
I have followed the steps (wipe cache, dalivk) and the rest of instructions to flash the rom.
Any other fellow users facing this issue?
Am looking at the AR HD rom for consideration....

Forget Memory Leaks, that's secondary to your cause.
Primary, is your choice of browser.
If you notice on the PlayStore, Chrome has been given 4 star average, & many low star ratings.
Secondly, check out the multiple threads on xda itself, on how bad Chrome's memory management is (not related to memory leak). You need a patched chrome for that (search is your friend ), else Chrome would suck the hell out of your phone.
There're so many smoother, faster, & better browser than chrome. (That's an opinion, as well as fact). Sync works for stock browser, we can make sync work in other browsers using plugins. HTML5 is more efficient in other browsers etc.
Either look for patched Chrome, or just use a different browser.
The heat issue, is not global. It just happens, & can happen to anyone any time. Let it relax after you've flashed the ROM, for some hours or days, it'll subside & never recur.
Cheers!

If its in PA, its in CM.
Camera & all other custom AOSP apps are handled by CM. Any issues in those, better check out CM discussions thread.
Anybody know of a rom that has the stock camera app, with the calling screen attached aside from jj hybrids (im on it now)?

I am using it and it is the same rom but for stock BL. Also not all of its features work correctly.
If you are going to use this let me know so i will upload a working build.prop because the stock one has some problems and play store isn't working. Also it has a stupid bug with calling sound. It just shutters? i don't know how to exactly express my experience anyway i think i fixed it by changing the calling sound.
Screen orientation is mirrored you will have to fix this by hand too that way
go here and change the values to these!
/system/etc/sensors.conf
bma150input_axis_x=0
bma150input_axis_y=1
bma150input_axis_z=2
bma150input_neg_x=1

ak897xorientation_axis_sign=1,1,-1
ak897xmagnetic_axis_map=0,1,2
ak897xmagnetic_axis_sign=1,-1,-1
yes I have tried this rom, i was waiting for there to be an official fix, i had seen the comments that some people had on the thread. So no other roms out there that work? with stock cam and aosp calling? that one you mentioned is too buggy for me...Maybe we can ask the developer nicely to solve them? lol

Q&A for [ROM][OFFICIAL][CandyKat 4.4+][TWRP & CWM][Theme_Engine][quincyatt]

Thanks for understanding and for helping to keep XDA neat and tidy! :smile:
Wakelock problems
Hi everyone! I am using CandyKat Rom. Does anybody "suffer" that when you press the screen turn on button ( I forgot what's its name) it does not turn on. Can anybody suggest what to do? It's the best rom, but I this irritates me. Thanks everyone. ????

Wake lock
2 possible fixes.....
First you could disable HD overlays, I know that works
The other possibility could be Pollution patch. I have never used it as I haven't had the need. But I know many swear it will cure everything but cancer. The patch I believe is more of a Kit Kat cure all, not necessarily specific to Kandy Kat.
To the OP, due to the lack of development with our beloved but aging device, not sure it is necessary to create a Q&A here for the rom. Sorry, but I don't exactly believe that the thread is blowing up over there.

I have no idea what or who Q&A bot is, I try to look up profile and it says "invalid".
If it is a rom specific question it is fine to post there. If it is a device specific question, I would take it here. There is not so much development going on here that the thread are blowing up.
If Mr.Bot was upset about my response, he would have surely had something to say.

The issue the above member is referring to with hw disabling is the screen flicker...and yes. Disabling hw overlay will solve that issue,as will pollutions aroma patch or a simple build prop edit.
I use both the above fixes ( 1&2 ) and wakelocks are a thing of the past for me. As for the screen flicker. Most devs bake the build prop edits in now.
I'm not a dev, i'm just a flash junkie. if i knew what i was doing i would attempt to build it myself, but is it possible that the fast charge feature of the diablo kernel from the hellybean rom at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2457323 could be built into the uber kernel? am i posting in the right place? sorry if i'm not. i love this rom and have no bugs so far but battery life/charging time suck. thanks to those who put time and effort into doing something that makes me feel like an idiot. thanks in advance.
Hi ,, apparently I cannot flash anything yet.
I have Gingerbread with TWRP installed. I have tried a couple of roms but they fail.
Any ideas?

Hi there. You cannot flash kitkat roms in gingerbread. You should have the jellybean, you can do that by using kies. Note that you should also have cwm 6.0.4.3 and up to flash kitkat roms: )
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA Free mobile app
Carried over from the Dev Thread.
Recently flashed this ROM on my Note. Very much enjoy it.
I have flashed the camera fix, stopped my cam from FC'ing. The camera takes great pictures. The recording delay while annoying is something I can live with, however.. It doesn't record anything. Acts like its recording, and such, but doesn't seem to write anything anywhere.
Any ideas?
Just installed CandyKat-quincyatt-4.4.4.release.v1.6.0-Official-20140922 on my note, but now the hard navigation buttons on my device do not work at all, and there is an extra navigation bar on the screen with the same functions as the existing buttons on the device. I found in the candykat options a checkbox to turn off the software navigation bar, but when I do this I still do not have any functionality with the real navigation buttons on my note.. How do I enable the real nav buttons?

ok.. more problems with nav bar: I tried to turn off the navigation bar in the candy interface options and reset the device to see if it would re-enable the hardware buttons, but now I cannot use the hardware buttons and trying to reenable the on-screen navigation bar does nothing. Clicking the checkbox for navigation bar and nothing shows up on screen. Also, in the same candy interface > navigation bar menu options, if I click the "Show landscape" checkbox it crashes the process com.android.systemui 100% of the time.
EDIT #3:
So I was going to try and manually edit the build.prop file to see if I can reenable my hardware keys, only to discover that this ROM does not support USB file transfer. The device charges fine when connected to USB, but does not even appear in device manager on my computer.. changing usb ports does nothing, enable/disable usb debugging on device does nothing.. also the device randomly freezes, shows a pinky-orange screen and reboots when going into the settings menu. This ROM is too broken, I don't know how anybody is using this. I'm going to have to switch to something more stable with working USB and options.
Android L
Will there be android L in this Rom ? I
error
I introduce error when installing the rom
I just upgraded my phone with this amazing ROM but I see that the default camera has no flash , any ideas?
A good idea would probably be to post this in the CM Nightlies thread. Those guys are very helpful over there.

Yeah, that thread will be better. But anyway, in the right bottom of camera app, there is 3 dot, it will open settings, does it flash if you set it to force flash? Meaning a lightning icon without A.
I've been running CM Nightlies for about 3-4 versions. No flash issues at all. Works fine for me. On 08/28/2012 right now.

Thanks for the replies, I saw the flashlight does not work when the HDR mode is activated, however, removing the HDR you can take pictures with flash without problems.
