Not bundled inside. It's somewhere in last 10 pages of this thread. Named 'compass_fix.zip' or so.

When I try to use Rom Manager it tells me I have to install ClockworkMod first.
I already got some CWM-Based Recovery thingy which came with CyanogenMOD.. What to do? If I choose that I've installed it manually it ask for a version number.

Should I install a new ClockworkMod?

Edit: Should have read the first post... It had all the help I needed.

no, there is no original CMW Recovery for the MTD Version of the GalaxyS (which you are running if you are on any CyanogenMod or Build out of this thread)
Just tell ROM Manager that you installed one manually & that its 3.x+
Then everything should be working fine!

Yep, I found the info in the first post in this thread. Was a bit slow to update my post.
I do however get a message saying I need to update Rom Manager. I've already downloaded the APK which is listed in the first post and installed it. Still says I need a new version.

jeah that's right, just go into the Play Store (formerly known as the android market) & download (or better update) it from there.
If you haven't installed Gapps yet download the latest one from HERE & flash them first so you have market etc. installed!

nothing.

samsung-gps-driver needs some time to get initialized.

so leave it on or wait a few seconds until you start an app.

unnecessary.

changing ntp-server is very easy -> /system/etc/gps.conf

Easy for some...

What if you have no idea what to put into the file? For most people using an app is easier. You are less likely to screw something up this way as well ;-) manual edits are okay if you know what your doing.. Not everyone can be bothered doing the necessary research. lol.

    The project is now continued under CM9 Nightlies. This thread will be kept here for history/reference.

    Introduction

    Teamhacksung has been porting ICS (to be CM9) for the Galaxy S and we feel that it has reached a state where it would benefit from public testing. However this is still a very early versions and there will be bugs. Bug reports are allowed in this thread only. Please check the known issues section before reporting a bug. The most minor bugs are welcomed (we'd love to know them, but we may not fix them instantly).

    Go to the thread (unaffiliated with teamhacksung) in the General Section for Q&A, General Discussion, Custom Kernels, etc. DO NOT POST THEM IN THIS THREAD.
    MODERATOR TEAM REQUEST: PLEASE NO ETA, NO COMMENTS, NO QUESTIONS....JUST BUG REPORTS !!!!

    To report random bugs
    Current build
    Last build without the problem
    Stock kernel?
    Current modem
    Any other modification you've made to the ROM.
    What were you doing
    How often does the problem occur?
    Attach a logcat
    Attach last_kmsg if it's a random reboot (If it rebooted into recovery, get it while booted into recovery. Also get /proc/cmdline.)

    Download
    ROM: Download from get.cm. (The nightlies are a continuation of the builds.)
    Google Apps: Download from ROM Manager. (Or http://goo-inside.me/gapps/)
    Face Unlock: Bundled with Google Apps from ROM Manager.
    Google Apps Fixer: MultiUpload / tux-head.net / faramir.eriador.org (md5: af8bcaf5f8158e8e1be7097fc86b6b28)

    Google Apps Fixer will fix your problem with not being able to add Google Account or Calendar Sync, but will also reset your Google Apps data. Only flash if you're having problems. If Google Apps Fixer does not work for you, do a factory reset from CWM (or Android Settings) and do not restore system data via TitaniumBackup.

    Installation

    - First time flashing ICS to your Galaxy S (or coming from another ROM)?
    1. Root your device and install ClockworkMod Recovery.
    2. Reboot into Recovery using 3-button-combo
    3. Do a Nandroid backup!
    4. WIPE (wipe data/factory reset + wipe cache partition)
    5. Install the ROM from internal sdcard using ClockworkMod Recovery
    6. Optionally install the Google Addon
    7. WIPE again or Calendar Sync will not work.
    - Upgrading from CM7?
    1. Do a Nandroid Backup!
    2. WIPE (wipe data/factory reset + wipe cache partition)
    3. Install the ROM from internal sdcard using ClockworkMod Recovery
    4. Optionally install the Google Addon
    - Coming from onecosmic's ICS build?
    1. Do a Nandroid Backup!
    2. Install the ROM from internal sdcard using ClockworkMod Recovery
    3. Optionally install the Google Addon
    4. Reboot into recovery and WIPE (wipe data/factory reset + wipe cache partition)
    5. If radio doesn't work, go back to Samsung ROM and flash from there.
    - Upgrading from another build of ICS by teamhacksung?
    1. Do a Nandroid Backup!
    2. Install the ROM from internal sdcard using ClockworkMod Recovery
    3. Optionally install the Google Addon
    Note: The upgrade process from CM7 to ICS is automatic, but downgrading from ICS to CM7 (or restoring Nandroid) requires flashing twice. Once from ICS and again from CM7's recovery.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    My calendar sync isn't working!
    Install the latest build and gapps and gapps fixer. If it still doesn't work, wipe your data.

    App X isn't working!
    Check the list at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1402210 (unaffiliated with teamhacksung) first and check if it works on other ICS phones. Most likely, it's the application's problem, not ours.

    Can I mount the phone as mass storage via USB?
    Starting from BUILD12, mass storage is the default configuration (might not apply to existing installations). The below command can be used to change into USB Mass Storage mode. USB Mass Storage mode is always used in recovery.
    Code:
    setprop persist.sys.usb.config mass_storage,adb
    If you want to switch to MTP mode use
    Code:
    setprop persist.sys.usb.config mtp,adb
    Please reboot after executing the command.

    I can't adb into the phone!
    Please install Nexus S drivers from Google. (Or Galaxy Nexus's driver in MTP mode)

    Can I flash other modems?
    You may flash modem packages designed for CM7.

    How do I take a screenshot?
    The screenshot taking function is built into ICS. Hold volume down + power.

    Can I use CM7 kernels?
    No, the kernel has modifications to make graphics, camera, data counter and data limit work.

    Can I disable LED Notification?
    Yes. Untick Settings -> Display -> Pulse notification light.

    Maps keeps asking me to sign in even though I'm signed in!
    Ignore the sign in dialog and pull down the notification menu. Answer the request for permission. Do this a few times and Maps will work.

    How do I enter Galaxy S Settings (Device Settings)?
    Type "am start com.cyanogenmod.AriesParts/.AriesParts" from adb. Or starting from BUILD 7, it is available as an icon in your launcher.

    How do I enter service mode?
    Type "*#*#197328640#*#*" into the dialer.

    Is there a Captivate/Vibrant version?
    A captivate build from the same source (but with captivate config) is available here. We currently lack a developer/maintainer for Vibrant.

    Does this work for I9000B?
    No, the I9000B requires a different kernel configuration. A build for I9000B may be added later in the process.

    What's working? Why is there only a list of issues?
    Everything else not listed are supposed to be working (aside from the usual CM7 bugs). If they're not listed, please post so that they can be added to the list of issues. A list of issues is far more useful from a development standpoint.

    Why am I getting notified that my data partition is getting full when I have 1+ GB free?
    Your /datadata partition, a smaller partition, is getting full. System automatically clears the cache when the space is low. The problem with "low space" is that you have too many applications installing libraries in /datadata (which can be solved by moving the said app to SD). It's a Galaxy S-specific problem (with our sucky NAND) and thus a general solution cannot be implemented.

    I want to install gazillion apps on my phone and /datadata is too small
    Run the following and datadata will no longer be used on next reboot. Your phone might become slower though.
    Code:
    touch /datadata/.nodatadata

    IRC?
    #teamhacksung-support on freenode for support
    #teamhacksung on freenode for development

    My adb shell isn't root!
    Run "adb root" to restart adb in root mode.

    Why is "Android OS" battery usage so high?
    It's just a reporting change in ICS. Android OS now includes battery usage from more components than in Gingerbread, the actual battery drain is the same.

    What is "Random Offset" during installation?
    It's just a harmless message given as a verbose logging due to the new ASLR security feature in ICS. It is not an error.
    (NOTE: Newer BUILDs might have it removed.)

    What do you mean by "wipe"?
    A wipe, unless specified otherwise, means running a "factory reset" from CWM Recvoery. This will clear all your installed apps/settings but will keep your /sdcard in tact.

    A cache wipe is the wipe of /cache (which is mostly unused) and will not cause you to loose any data.

    How do I get the latest version of Rom Manager without market?
    If the bundled version doesn't work, update from http://download.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/RomManager.apk.

    How do I setup Rom Manager?
    Menu -> Manual Flash Override -> OK -> Samsung GalaxyS i9000 (MTD) -> ClockworkMod 3.x+

    I would like feature X
    This thread is not the place for it. Submit it to the CM bug tracker once an official RC is released.

    Thanks

    Please do not bother mods with reporting post (unless they REALLY deserve to be reported, such as advertisements). I ignore them and you can too.

    And I couldn't resist. Looks okay (Using the dialer from 4.0.3 for now because the new one broke and I don't have time to fix it.)
