Hey,
Ive had an S2 for a little while now. I have rooted and flashed several different roms and tried everything from changing settings to flashing stock firmware and wiping the handset to try and get rid of this problem..
Currently on:
4.1.2 JZO54K.I9100XWLSD
siyah-s2-v6.0b4+
BetterBatteryStats shows:
0% Deep Sleep
~40% suspend_backoff
~20% l2_hsic
~20% sec-battery-monitor
(and some other tiny, irrelevant wakelocks)
I have been trying to go through dmesg but I have no idea how to read it properly and I havn't been able to find much info on the subject.
I would be grateful if someone could have a quick look to see if they can identify a problem.
DMESG: attached
..from what I can tell, my cpu1 is constantly turning off and on.
Any ideas anyone? :crying:
1st way, pull out the battery and wait for 1 min, Then put it back. If it does not work, try the second method.
Wipe everything, data, cache, format system and flash a stock-like rom like Omega v23. I suggest you to backup everything on your phone and format your external and internal sd's with recovery. Your faulty musics can even cause media server to work all the time.

Have you tried changing your kernel? I'm running Rootbox and Dorimanx and dont have those issues. Have you tried that setup?

Just recently I have tried wiping everything and flashed the official stock rom for my network from samfirmware, would Omega v23 make any difference?
I removed the external sd card..
I have tried formatting internal sd card in recovery, getting mounting errors followed by "skipping format", also tried formatting in plain old settings->storage, which doesn't seem to remove any data.
* I have manually deleted everything from internal sdcard.

I have tried various roms/kernels, stock and custom, so I don't believe thats the problem.
I think your problem is about hardware, but how can you explain this to the warratry.
--Hi, my phone does not go to deep sleep.
--Sammy-- What??
I hope, if you have warranty, you will be able to explain your problem.

Haha.. They would give me sleeping pills.
I'm beginning to think this is a hardware problem, but the handset functions perfectly except the no sleep (resulting in poor battery life).
I do not have a warranty on this one so i'm hoping that if it is a hardware problem I can achieve some kind of work-around.

Have you tried a full wipe and not install anything but cpu spy to see if the device sleeps without any apps installed?

Please attach the full text log of BBS, it could help .
Can't be hardware, it must be a kernel thing.
I guess you tried em all already, so, as it is weird, you can easily contact samsung and ask them if it could blow off at any time soon
With the s4 coming out they won't like S2 blowing up in people's pockets all of a sudden.

Kernel wakelock suspend_backoff: could be from apps and/or services running in the background, like FB etc. Try using TB to freeze apps (and services!) and see if things are getting better.
Kernel wakelock sec-battery-monitor: do you use a battery monitoring app? I sometimes use Battery Monitor Widget to monitor the battery. This app can run as service in the background when closed, hence I have to disable background logging before I close the app. If I miss to disable it I will have those sec-battery-monitor wakelocks too.

Hi,
This is a unique kinda problem (not very unique actually but only faced by couple of people) on any cm10 based rom I have tried till now.
The issue is that after I properly flash the rom (yes, I have double checked and flashed roms exactly following OP's instructions in all cases), I find that pre-existing media files (pictures,music and videos) are not getting scanned at all and added to the stock gallery/music app. if I take any picture or upload any media using MTP with the rom, its added properly.
So, I have tried all suggestions (fixing permission, full wipe, delete .nomedia etc) and still no solutions. I am sure that the issue is with mediascanner and I have monitored it and found that eventhough I manually stop and start it using "Rescan Media ROOT", after runnnig for like 20-30 secs, it just says restarting again and again.
Additionally I have also found that when connecting via MTP, eventhough the SD Card and internal memory has alot of stuffs, they are not shown. So I think issue can be with the this also.
I've grown very frustated over last few days due to this and I cannot use any of the amazing cm10 roms that we have and have to go back to my old ics rom.
PLEAZZZ HELP !!!
I also encourage all others who are facing similar issue to post here which would definately help in understanding and fixing the issue.
Thanks !!!
really man? CM10 is not even beta yet. its got bugs. deal with them or use ICS. Im on ICS still due to them.
Complaining about bugs in a build that is so far from being stable, that'll cause trouble.

If it would be a bug in the build only, then it should have affected all who are using it, why only few are getting affected.
And yes, I know its not right to complain about still in beta cm10 releases and thats why I'm not bothering any Devs for it. I have started this thread in Q&A so that guys who are facing the issue can match the different conditions/scenarios it is happening as I know its not a coincidence that its happening on some devices and not on others.

Its either s/w or h/w man.
And from what I can tell its s/w. so its on them. get logs, and send them in.
Entropy has said to set screen to stay awake while charging in dev options. Then plug your phone into charger and reboot then give it about 15 min. to scan. This is to keep media scanner from eating battery, but you could try it and see if has any effect on your issue.

Yeah , my issue is completely opposite of what most guys were facing (which is supposedly been solved in latest builds). In my case, mediascanner is not running at all to scan all media.

I would do a clean install of cm10, and NOT use the root media scanner app, and then follow what entropy said (keep display on while it scans).
Also, go to manage apps and clear data on DRM, Galley, and Media storage. Reboot and then play some music through your favorite file explorer. The Media Scanner will rebuild data in about 10 minutes to half an hour (try to keep screen on if you can)

Just tried this as I'm having the same problem, no luck. My music player was working fine yesterday then it decided to forget where all the songs were.
Same problem here with Task's AOKP latest(04/9)
I didnt have any problem with the previous release... BUT:
What i already did:
1- Full wipe to flash the new aokp release.
Tibe restore the rescanMedia Root... didnt touch it.
Media not working
2- Flash again without full wipe. Media not working
searched for .nomedia files. No results.
3- Flash again with another full wipe plus system format.
Checked with no Apps installed, media scan not working.
Installed RescanMediaRoot... didnt work.
After that i quit and decided to sleep. All my work on it was with the phone pluged. I dont know why but after unpluged a few musics show up. Only 40 of 2000. No pics.
4-Full wipe + chache format + System format + flash the previous AOKP release. MEDIA NOT WORKING.
was working yesterday...
5- Nandroid restore to number 3.
Thats where i am now. Stuck with the problem with aparently any JB release.
PS. Any new pic shows on gallery...

I'm still facing the issue with apparently any JB build till now .. right from the first one entropy released as cm10 previes build and trust me , I tried all (well almost)
Now , from your problem it seems that once with some particular way of flashing roms, we do something that causes media scan to get corrupt..
Tell me this .. before when it was working.. have u ever tried going to gallery and then settings ?? I never got that menu on any JB release...
After making too much efforts in vain to get it right , I have resorted to the alternatives :
1. Quickpic as replacement to Gallery app.. Keep the default gallery app running for camera..
2. Poweramp full version as replacement to Music.. It has a folder rescan option under setting and searches all ur music..
3. MX video player for video playback.. However I still find few codecs doesn't support audio till now.. but it is issue with all roms for all people afaik..
Let me know if you find a solution and get it working again...
I'm on AOKP for months. Never used any other rom. Never even installed to see what happens.
So, recently Task release his JB AOKP. It is 1 week older and he released 3 or 4 builds.
The first release i did not installed, The second one was released on same day and i did a full wipe to install it from AOKP ICS.
So far everything was working good.
Then came another release, the 30/08. Installed without a full wipe, just dalvik and cache, and everything was working fine.
From the build 30/08 to the build 04/09 i did bought Tibu Pro.
So i did a full wipe to install the 04/09 and the bug show up as you can see on my previous post.
The weirdest thing is full wiping + format System + format cache + install an old AOKP(30/08) and the bug are still there.
Could be that app RescanMediaRoot? Do you have it?
what do this app do to disable the scan? If we disable and uninstall what happens?
I do have setting options on gallery but when i click it nothing happens. No setting there.
Edited:
I just checked BetterBatteryStats and it looks weird. No kernel wakelocks... not even 1.
The most interesting was the Partial wakelocks:
MediaScannerService is the number one with 12min. Its running but nothing changes.
I dont like poweramp cuz the AwesomeBeats wont work with it.

I don't think "rescan Media root' app has anything to do with it .. actually
in my case , I never had this working since the start and at that time I didn't even knew about this app.
I have also noticed the partial wakelocks and if you go to running apps , you will see media storage running when u start a music/gallery app , but nothing happens..
I did tried alot to figure the problem out and seek help from all dev's that I can from this one and i9100 forum , but no results.. So finally I made peace with the workaround I mentioned...
One thing you can try in ur case is full wipe + format system/cache/data and then install a ICS rom.. after reboot.. try any JB rom again....
Good luck !! :good:

I'l try that and repport back.
The problem with media on the external SD card I believe is directly due to the change made in the location of the external SD card card within the directory. Many apps were built for ICS and GB and so when the scan is performed, the app isn't picking up the external SD card which used to be found within the internal SD. Now if media scanner isn't finding media within the internal SD card, that is a whole different story. I have media on my internal SD card and it has worked flawlessly. If you have music on the extsd and are using poweramp you can go into setting and check the box for the extsd outside the internal SD storage and it imports fine. Oh, and I'm running the latest AOKP with the Fluxxi kernel.

I do have pics on the Camera360 folder(internal SD) and it wont show on gallery.
I'll wipe everything and flash JB without the external. But i just find out something strange.
Im on recovery right now and using the file explorer of MrRobinson aroma to test it.
looks like the external its NOT on MNT folder. There are not and MNT folder on root. The external is called Sdcard and there is an emmc folder that looks empty.
Is it right? I really dont know nothing about the folder structure.
Edited:
Second time on Aromas file manager the emmc show all files now.
I belive all this means nothing.
Not all file explorers are equal. You need a root explorer to see the folders. Your music if on the internal, should be in the Music folder following the path home/sdcard/Audio/Music. Pictures on internal should be under home/sdcard/DCIM/Camera. When the external sd card is inserted it should show up in three places. At the root of the directory,you will find it as home/extSdCard, then under home/mnt/extSdCard and finally under home/storage/sdcard1. sdcard is the internal memory. I just moved photos to my extSdCard and rebooted the phone and media scanner didn't find them and setting don't exist on the gallery so you can't direct it to the new path of the extSdCard. So, I just replicated what you have been experiencing. If you move your photos to the Camera folder following the path I listed they should show up. The only reason my music works on Poweramp is because I can go to settings and check the sdcard1 folder under storage. Man I hope you don't mind all this rambling I'm doing and I hope I'm not insulting your intelligence.
No you are not. All this is new to me.
Thanks for all the info. It helped me.
Problem is gonne here.
What I did was:
1- clear cache and dalvik
2- data/factory reset
3- format system
4- format cache
5- format data
6- format internal SD
7- installed latest AOKP+ Gapps. Task's gapps don't come with Gmusic so I installed from Justin's Aroma with 1 or 2 inverted and Apex as a system app. But I did installed the normal gapps before try the Aroma.
First boot fine. I did config WiFi and gaccount slowly.
I didn't let the screen turn off.
When I first open the Gmusic everything was there.
Then I installed Titanium backup pro and did my full restore.
Tested another player , Mixzing, and was all there.
I forgot to save any pic on external since I do have Dropbox and it send it to my PC asap. So I didn't worry about pics.
Everything is working!!!!:beer:
Thank you for all your help.

I just flashed RR3.1.2.... I was using another ROM before this.
Everything is fine but i tried ti install iStunt2 Game and Rom Tool Box but they get FC.
Can someone please advise me how to fix this? I did try to fix permissions but its not working. I was not having any issue like this in previous ROM....
Maybe try checking the RR forums, or possibly reflashing. I've had problems before where certain apps just refuse to work on RR.
I personally have found even the latest RR to be too unstable/buggy for daily use. Every time I go back to it I find something within the first day that makes me choose another ROM.
Thanks for reply
No its working good for me ..... now

Yah changed the mode to MTP and fixed permissiosn in Stweaks ... all was good and a changed Mode to defult and now its working on default as well...
I don't know some thing replated to permissions or just needed a reset ....
I am having this issue with my device again now. I thought its fixed but I was wrong
tried both MTP and Mass Storage Mode no luck
This is the only issue
ok Dori is on to this one So probabaly we ll get this fixed in coming release for Dori Kernel
dorimanx said:
i think i know what can fix that,
i am doing tests, some EMMC external cards acting differently, and kernel using too much RAM to copy files first to RAM then to sdcard, it's SLOW and cant handle 10~20Mb/s
if you plug it in card reader you get 4~7MB max.
so here comes then fun part! kernel load as much as possible to RAM and then try to transfer to card on background, but it's take too much RAM, and ROM service PANIC and do reset to main ROM service to release the RAM, and you get HOT boot, and damaged file on card, (not complete)
i will reduce the amount of RAM used, but it's will reduce transfer speed, but be more stable.
we need stability, for people with GOOD quality fast external cards, speeds will remain the same.
so no bad effect.
thanks for report, (i seen that bug report many times, from random users, but was busy with more important work. now i can try to fix this.)

New Release for Dori kernel with this fix
Hey guys,
I have Galaxy S3 i9300 running on SlimBean 4.2.2 Build 8 + Googy Max 1.7.9.
My problem with the device is that the UI stutters/jitters a lot. Even scrolling is laggy and clunky, and stutters while loading images or any other media. Browsing Kotaku, with the site's over abundance of GIFs as main article images, is impossible. Even some transitions, like bringing the notification menu down, has a noticeable jitter.
Why is this happening? I have no useless apps, no task killers, or memory boosters. Any help on this will be appreciated!
Makes more sense to ask the Dev via your roms thread.
I should have mentioned this but I have tried a number of other ROMs, and they all give me the same problem.
Did you try wiping everything(syste, data,dalvik,etc)? Also what recovery are you using? Every info about the devices software and hardware is needed to understand what is wrong.
Remove EXT SD CARD and test
In recovery format cache system data and sd card .
Boot to download mode flash stock rom ( read faqs and guides first )
Test >>>>problems its hardware no problems its the custom roms you are using .
Maybe seeder will help?

Tried Seeder a couple of days ago. No luck.
I wonder if its something to do with the availability of the RAM? It's unusually low - it used to hover around 300MB free, but now it's barely 100 to 150mb. Also, as shown in the pics below, the two places show completely different RAM availability:

I believe to have fix the problem.
Things I did:
- Deleted ClickUI icon pack
- Changed the Wallpaper from ClickUI to a one downloaded from Google Images
- Turned off BBM always-on icon
- Changed governor to Peagus
- Set process limit to 3
Now I am not sure which combination of the above steps solved the issue, but I will toy around to see what I can turn on and off without affecting performance.

security settings crushing, and all is sloww
Hi there all
I have flashed this ROM 2 days ago and found it very good and fast.
Today i have played with the security (lock screen & apps permissions), i have chooses the face recognition for the screen-lock and a default security for all new apps.
Now all is so slow and cannot get into the security settings, it is crushing !
Please help.
I do not want to factory reset, i have already restored all my contact and apps, do not have the time to do this again.
Thank you all
My huge thanks to the developers of this amazing ROM. I really appreciate your work. With Apolo Kernel works perfect! Thank you.

I've been using the v8st for over 20 days now and have not come across such an issue.
But I have a different issue though:

Going by wallpaper details found MD5 error.
Few more issues on my device, new to this ROM. Flashed 2 days back.
1. How to increase the FONT & ICON size in Status bar, Key board letters are too small, notifications are small.
2. Screen and around the camera gets heated, during this time battery drains super fast.
3. BBS is not working, error message "Battery service could not be contacted"
Please help me with the above issues.
Thanks in advance

What post #4 are you talking about? What does not work? What gives you an MD5-error. Please be more specific.

You need to change the display density setting. Open the file /system/build.prop with a text editor and search for the line ro.sf.lcd_density=182. Change the value to something else. Bigger numbers give you bigger icons and fonts. The Default for SGS2 Roms is normally 240, Neatrom uses 182, that's why everything is smaller than on most roms. If you want to use 240, you can also flash this ZIP in Recovery: View attachment Density_240_v8.0st.zip. It's just a modified build.prop for 8.0st. There are also apps on the PlayStore that can change the density for you, but I never tried them.

Without more info it's impossibe to know what is draining your battery. You need to find out the app that gives you trouble with BBS or similar app.

In Android KitKat, user apps are not allowed to access battery stats. It's part of Androids security policy. There's two ways to fix it:
Get Xposed Installer and install the Xposed Framework. Then, download the module Enable BatteryStats Permission - voila! Since Xposed is simply awesome for other tasks as well, I recommend this method.
If for some reason you don't want to use Xposed (e.g. if you use ART), then you have to convert BBS to a system app. There's several ways to do so, like Titanium Backup or Link2SD... However make sure that BBS gets installed in /system/priv-app/, and not in /system/app/, or else it will still not get the necessary rights.
Hi is there a way to reboot into recovery except from the home + volume + wake and also which Version of Apolo is the right one 7.1 CM?
Battery life?
Hi guys, was checking this rom out and it looks awesome!
How's the battery life though?
I'm currently on Resurrection Remix and the battery life when I have wifi on is really poor.
I'm basically looking for a 4.4.4 rom that gives maximum battery life.
Also are there any kernel recommendations?
Thanks!
Weird battery behaviour
Hello Guys. I met a very strange issue.
After flashed the ROM, the battery indicator acts very weird.
When the phone is fully charged, and I remove the charger. after reached 85%, and when the battery is gong down, the indicator is going up from 85% to 90 %.
Anybody met this ? and how to resolve ?
I already calibrated the battery, but the problem still on.

Try another batterry. I was facing the problem with an almost dead battery. With another one it's fixed.

I'm running this with Apolo V0 kernel and I'm satisfied (on original Samsung 2000 mAh battery):
~33% a day of normal usage
~1% an hour idle (data on, sync on, location on)
~0.3% an hour night mode (data off, sync off, phone online) - translates to ~14 days of runtime
Have tweaked wakelocks/services.

1. You can configure advanced power options to be able to reboot into recovery from a running ROM
2. Yes CM is the right Apolo for NeatROM (having superuser integrated)
Having troubles with wifi connection since this morning... My S3 and laptop works just fine but with s2 cant connect to apps like viber, whatsapp or hayday

I had the same problem of battery drain because of mediascanner service running all the time and i didnt know the exact fix but i have read somewhere that formatting sd card would help fix this and it did, Anyway i didnt use much of my extSD so i removed it for now!! And no battery drain observed with mediascanner service
I can't get this to run on my phone. After carefully following the instructions my phone is stuck on the first boot screen with the yellow exclamation mark. Strangely it seems like I have TWRP installed which I can't get rid of. Even after installing the CWM linked to, the next time I manually enter recovery TWRP opens.
Update: Sucessfully installed a Cyanogen based ROM instead. Shame, I would have liked to try this one.
GAPPS not working?
Hi there, please help me. I can't get gapps to work/install. I first flashed beta version...nothing, then tried the stable version and only Chrome appeared in appdrawer. I still can't access play store (from the Nova Launcher menu option), the browser that came with the NeatRom doesn't start.
The rooting, flashing of the rROM etc all went well, according to the instructions, the only thing was that I couldn't format /preload as there was no such option in the CWM recovery. Could that be the problem maybe?
Please tell me, what am I missing here...

No, Preload is not used in AOPS Roms, only at Sammy ROMs.
maybe your download of GAPPS or ROM is corrupted, check the MD5 file to see if there is any thing wroing.
Clear Cache from Recovery
Try to reboot
Try to re-install.
Somtimes something goes wrong and then you have effects as you mentioned.

Sorry, but I gave up over AOSP and flashed the "stock" NeatRom 6.4 w/o any problems. Runs great!
Still, when I was searching for a solution, I found out, that it is possible that I didn't make a nandroid backup of /preload (when I was still on rooted stock samsung ROM - before flashing kitkat cwm and later AOSP NeatRom). I read that in the CWM recovery that comes with Siyah kernel - which I used to make a nandroid backup - you have to manually select to make a backup of the /preload part. in addition to all others... And i really didn't find a file with "preload" in the nandroid backup folder that I copied to my PC. If so, I am suppose to have trouble when/if going back to stock samsung ROM? If that is the case, maybe it would be good to update the guide for flashing the KitKat-based AOSP NeatRom. I don't really care right now, because I really like the stock NeatRom...I just hope it'll work...
NeatRom 8.0st and TWRP - no restore possible
Hi all,
hope, one of you will be able to support me ?
I'm not able to restore any of my TWRP backups done with TWRP 2.7.1.0 which came with the ROM.
All backups went well and were flagged as 'successfully'.
However, trying to restore one of them failes every time. It looks like after restoring SYSTEM and starting with DATA, it stucks.
One 'failed', no error code or any additional information.
I've a 32 GB SD installed on my i9100 and this is where I store all the TWRP backups.
Copying them to internal storage does not help.
Any ideas ?
Thx in advance,
BR,
This is a good room
Hi guys..
My issue is quite strange, mostly because we often have a problem like devices not going to deep sleep; my issue is really different: the device goes in deep sleep but after a while it is impossible to wake it up! Completely unresponsive! I have to brutally power off and then restart.. I know it's still alive because I can also restart the device via adb reboot-bootloader..
So I would like to ask if you have any advice about that: I can tell I reset the device often in the last week so a wipe data and clean cache is not a solution; I would like to know for some kind of buil.prop tweak or maybe a great tool to log what is happening, if any.. Also, I fear the issue is related to the use of Link2SD app to link apps data to a partition of the external SD. The SD is fine, not faulty, but maybe that could be the reason. Is there any tweak I can apply to the kernel to exclude this reason? I'm rooted and I have TWRP, also I installed a bunch of kernel manager application so that I can change some basic stuff; unfortunately there are no custom kernel for my device, which is a Cube iWOrk 10 Ultimate, with an Intel Cherry Trail CPU..
Could you please help guys and girls?
Thanks a lot, see ya!
