for me battery is good enough, on the old boot.img (before the boot1 and boot2 zips) , on 60% battery today i i flashed the boot2.zip (i skiped boot1.zip) , and it drained faster. i'm reverting back to the old boot.img, before the cpu scaling and new audio drivers. (hope arco too reverts what he did with the cpu) :rolleyes:

The Odin package also includes the same boot img
If you extract the file you'll find it there

It doesn't, that's why I'm puzzled. Here's the content of Boot_loader.tar:

Code: 
-rwxr-xr-x 0/0          875040 2011-04-25 13:41 osbl.mbn
-rwxr-xr-x 0/0           29184 2011-04-25 12:56 partition.bin
-rwxr-xr-x 0/0          219560 2011-04-25 13:41 dbl.mbn
-rwxr-xr-x 0/0          559676 2011-04-25 13:02 EMMCBOOT.MBN

No such thing as boot.img

These are the essential things that get started when you switch on your phone. These files then start the kernel (boot.img). So if you mess with these files and want to flash them with DD - just go ahead. But as I don't think anybody ever tried this and can tell you which file goes on which partition on your phone, your risk of a permanent hard brick is VERY high.

About the vibra...you know what's funny? That my haptic feedback from exDialer for example is stronger than the one when someone is calling me...
This is my battery drain

Yes as Wintel_Mac mentioned these files are used to start the flashing process,
so before proceeding with the flashing the phone dds zeros to the partitions.
similar to what we do using terminal.
so the boot loader doesn't have the actual img file only some some files which do the cleaning up.

if you know how to make an odin flashable file you'll notice that you will have to include the same files in you'r tarball :)

hmmm interesting... can someone test the vibration in the app ViBe (or something similar) and actually test it out further... just to check if there is a similar occurrence as described above

Link to the the ViBe app:
(https://play.google.com/store/apps/...251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5iYXNlMmFwcHMudmliZXMiXQ..)

p.s. i would have tested it myself, but currently i don't have CM9 installed on my sgs+

installed it now, u can feel the different vibrations, but it's soft, i mean, it's been already said that the vibration level is a bit weak on cm9.

Another appeal to arco, plz revert what u did to the cpu in boot1.zip, wake lag is present, even when the phone is on charge :rolleyes:

I upgraded to the latest Flash player, but still flash videos don't play through the Browser.
And has arco done any changes to wifi ?
cause my signal strength has reduced after flashing the new kernel
before only the wifi indicator would show less signal bars, but would work fine, but now the wifi signal is weak.

This is offtopic
but where is skywalker01 anyways ?
we really need a powerful kernel from him right now.
i'm sure he can solve the vibe problems.

WHAT is wrong ? i see no difference. Wake lag is present with every rom/kernel for this phone.

I don't get it, explain what's wrong with the cpu change.

yes mate i know u are having lag on all version, but before the last 2 kernels i would see wake lag every 10th or 15th waking, now it's almost everytime.

this is the change that in my opinion might be reverted (maybe i'm wrong, maybe i have no clue what i'm talking about, i'm just saying in real life usage it's lagging).

here and here are posts that back my saying.

these are all test kernels btw, and changes made are not final.

    Fix for recovery bootloop problem

    Thanks to everyone who hear my pray and tried to help with my problem (bootloop into recovery). And Acro68 sorry that i'm bothered you. I here again to publish the solution. Problem was in bootloader, like people on other forum says (it was damaged somehow, probably because kies update fails before).

    1. Open Odin.exe (UnZip from Odin.zip)
    2. Go into Download mode
    3. Select OPS - AriesVE.ops (UnZip from AriesVE.zip)
    4. Select BOOT - Boot_loader.tar
    5. Flash it and bootloop into recovery never gona happen.

    All the files is attached...

    I and some fellow developers (especially thanks manveru0, skywalker01, other users for testing, reporting and other help) are trying to port AOSS to our device, working with CyanogenMod 7 for now.
    You can check out this thread, repositories, and this post for changelogs, bug reports and so on.
    Github repositories:
    https://github.com/abbradar
    https://github.com/manveru0
    Feel free to check them out and fork!

    Current status of porting:
    Working:
    • Screen (w. touch features, w. backlight)
    • Buttons
    • Radio (w. 2G/3G, Internet is working)
    • Bluetooth
    • WLAN
    • Rotate sensor
    • Handset button
    • USB
    • Battery sensors
    • Camera
    • GPU acceleration
    Not working:
    • GPS (does not lock)
    • Audio (both input and output, will be tough)
    • Camcorder (because of audio)
    • Storage-related (external SD not working, internal with no USB storage, vold misconfigured)
    • USB tethering/MTP (will require some programming)
    • Host access point (similar to USB tethering)
    • Light sensor
    • Buttons force feedback
    • Contacts on SIM card
    Not tested:
    • Other sensors (compass, magnetic)
    • HDMI (should not work, as logs say)
    • FM radio (should not work)
    Another bugs:
    • CyanogenMod settings doesn't work (fixed by
    • Random reboots sometimes
    • Sometimes - very long resume from sleep (30 seconds approximately)
    • Keyboard is very small
    • Dialer is laggy (because of audio)
    • USB connected notification is shown without USB cable attached
    • APN database is not working (enter settings manually)
    • Vibration strength is very weak
    Regressions: (worked before)
    • Nothing for now

    Hello, guys.
    First of all, sorry for my 2.5-month absence, I was really short of time because of university and long illness, so I decided to freeze module development for a while. I understand that doing so without any posts there was rude, and ask for understanding.
    Next, it was a great surprise for me to see really working CM9 for our phone!!! I can only say GJ to arco68 - thank you guy, you really did this, even without a phone! I don't think my work is relevant anymore, so I'll stop with CM7 and will check out his work (maybe I'll be of some help). I've been able to found quick solution for working audio in 2.3.7, also, but I don't think it is relevant anymore ^_^.
    Once again, good job, arco68. I'll try to build CM9 with your configuration and test it, so I'm going to be just user and tester for now. ^_^

    Here's a new full test build of the rom. This contains fixed boot image, so it actually boots (unless I screwed something up this time :p). USB connect/disconnect should work correctly, wifi I *hope* works now. In addition I added support for automatic brightness and cleaned up some stuff.

    And lol at the tags. Who wrote that? :D

    I am a CM9 porter for Galaxy SL. I have come across issues with audio in Galaxy SL also, which I have overcome by coding an Audio wrapper. If you need any help with fixing audio on S+, count me in.
