tilal, May I ask if the FM radio works on the current build? or the builds in future?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] azhaxi:
u ppl have worked quite well on Functionality !!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] poruid:
Please. please, concentrate when typing, this is rubbish!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tas0s:
It's up :D The funny thing is that right now I realized that I was using the UsbController.cpp from motorolla/zeppelin.

I must check usb tether functionality etc to be sure that my fix its good.Either way take a look ;)

The relevant changes are in my last commit, in init.u8120.rc,BoardConfig.mk and UsbController.cpp
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] esciar:
No, it doesn't work.

For everybody who likes to ask about FM radio I would suggest you to search in the thread because it was said several times.

Until Tilal or Aorth (or another developer) say: "Now it works!" I suggest you to assume it doesn't.

i've installed the latest nightly build (1311) and everything works excellent, the rom is the best one i've tryed. but i'm having an issue with usb storage on pc - it won't detect my SD card at all! the first time i plugged it in the usb it was working absolutely fine, and after i tryed the usb tethering option (which was also working fine) i can't get the pc to detect my SD anymore!! in my device manager i have four "Ideos" devices without a driver and when trying to install a driver nothing goes. in my computer i have that ideos's cd-rom thing but i can't access it also. anyone have a clue how to solve this? thanx

and btw, thanx for this superb ROM!

U8150-B w/ Synaptic screen

---------- Post added at 08:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:44 AM ----------

To clarify, it was a while before noticing the baseband issue. The ROM otherwise worked. A few points noted:

speakerphone OK

upped CPU idle speed

stock auto-dim missing

headphone pause not respected

USB mount untried
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tulangabol:
In Huawei C8150, i got Baseband version 'unknown' with CyanogenMod-7-11122011-NIGHTLY-U8150. And the other person in kaskus.us got lose signal...

I don't know how to solved this?

Thank for Tilal and Alan, you're the best...

Sorry for my bad english.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mega g:
camera don't do 3-megapixels photo but 2-megapixel photo

I apologize for my bad English. I was writing from the phone very quickly without regard errors. I apologize.

in this rom if anyone has noticed, the camera app does not do 3-megapixel photo, but only 2-megapixels. I use the Ideos U8150-D screen melfast, and I did all the wipe and flash ROM twice but does not change, in all the roms Cyanogen for Ideos. some fixes?

thank you all very much!

i have a probem with last nightly (13-11) and link2sd ext4 partition.. partition don't mount, and not possible recreate script link2sd error is:

mount: mounting /dev/block(vold/179:2 on data/sdext2 failed: No such device.

my 2nd partition is ext4 and on 22-10 nightly version work perfectly..
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] djjoza:
i have two minor bugs on the latest nightly build:

-notification LED lights all the time instead of blinking

-i can't get the phone to show avalilable mobile networks, when searching i get "error while searching for networks".

did anyone experienced these issues?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] RaF_83:
yeah, latest nightlies are not compatible at all with ext-4 standard, but the last nightly is compatible with ext-3. My advice to u is to save ur data and repartition ur ext-4 in an ext-3 partition, as I did.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] King_Rat:
select automatically fixed it for me ^^

PS - Nice work on latest update...

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jdwpom:
Regarding the 'unknown' baseband problem - i'm getting that, too, but it doesn't appear to be affecting anything. I can only imagine it's an unset variable somewhere.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ZDjKT7Ec:
"Search networks" gives error.

"Search automatically" results in "Registered on network" pop-up, but nothing else is displayed-- like which network registered (2 or 3 signals are normally available). Can you make a call? use data? switch networks/ roam?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] djjoza:
i'm having the same issue. everything is ok with network communication, calls/data work ok, but searching for networks returns an error everytime. when i choose "select automatically" it registeres on network but next search still returns the same error.

USB Tethering Bug

Removing usb cable without turning off usb tethering causes crash and phone reboots.I have experienced the same in previous nightly too.(installed after a full wipe,device u8150-D ) Anyone experiencing the same ??

@Tilal and Alan, thanks alot for your time and contributions in making this a great rom :)

ICS source was released not too long ago...

So.. Just a thought. If any of you fantastic developer folk start devvin' in the realms of ICS on the U8150... do start a thread about it, yeah? :D I'll see about pulling in the code if my computer arrives tomorrow. :P
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] aorth:
Nope... and a message for trolls!

I have no idea about Ice Cream Sandwich for U8150... but I did just repo sync and compile ICS successfully. :)

It took 107 minutes on my quad-core Xeon with 8GB of RAM. There was a period of 20 - 30 minutes where it was damn-near completely unresponsive (took 10 minutes to unlock the screen saver). I'm not sure if it was swapping like hell or just intensive IO... but yeah.

Now, a rant for the trolls...

AOSP != CyanogenMod. CyanogenMod does quite a lot of modifications to system libraries in order to support more devices, not to mention has a bunch of reference devices with similar chipsets that are working already. AOSP only ships with official support for Google's reference phone... the Galaxy Nexus, which is a completely different device than we have.

You guys will have to do your best to not ask questions about getting ICS on U8150. The source has only been released for one freakin' day! Let us finish CM7, man! Also, maybe it's time for you cheap asses to upgrade your phones. The technology in the U8150 is from 2008... it's a very low-end device with MANY limitations (the lack of a GPU is just one of such limitations, it also has a very small internal SD).

</rant>
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dannyt84:
Hi! Want to try your rom, but seems that my phone continue to fail installation. Can you reupload the file? Is it just mine?

Thanks for your effort
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ntnlzr:
you have to install last version of cw
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dannyt84:
Yeah, I know. Do you have the same problem?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] King_Rat:
This cheap ass troll really enjoys his U8150 & has only had it for 10 months ^^

If money grew on trees I'd have top of the line gear...

Until that day, try complementing those that think the devs do great work :p

and let the haters hate...

<lesson-ends>
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tilal6991:
No offence King_Rat but I think you misunderstood aorth for 2 reasons:

1. He is a dev addressing trolls

2. He is only telling the above to trolls who would demand ICS - he himself is not telling everyone to upgrade.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] aorth:
Re: my rant

Re: my rant... I didn't have anyone in specific in mind, I was just venting in preparation for all the idiotic questions which will be coming soon.

I wonder how Jean-Baptiste Queru (open-source release manager for Android) keeps his cool*. For example, he explicitly states in the google group that the just released code only builds on Ubuntu 10.04, and anything after that they haven't tried yet... then two messages down some retard posts that it doesn't build for him on Ubuntu 11.10 (or whatever whizbang nifty bleeding edge Zubuntu z0mg he's running).

It's thing like that that really get annoying. I'm not as good at handling idiots, and they're everywhere. I try to ignore them but sometimes I just have to speak my mind!

*But even JBQ has his moments... "Halp, I can't build on Zubuntu 11.11" hahahha
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] trekker99:
He did eventually issue a notice telling people to not bother unless they are on the master branch (sigh can't post the link, the topic title is Building on Ubuntu 11.10 for those interested).

However, even if you vent first, with the size of this thread, those people you are targeting probably won't even go back to read that...

I for one think that the focus should be on CM7, still got plenty of things to fix/improve.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] basinizadussun:
where is the market apppppp?:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] crispybbq:
Yeah, that's a good point. As was the "cheap-ass, 2008" bit. :P

While ICS would be cool on this device, a perfectly stable CM7 would be even better. At least we know it works. :D

Also I have a feeling it would suck. I tried the SDK emulator, and QVGA looked alright. It was really choppy though, and would probably be even worse on an ARMv6 CPU, with no GPU to speed things along.

It's fun playing with the CM7 nightlies though. I'd imagine with a Device of Awesome like the Nexus series, or <insert favourite Galaxy or HTC device here>, it wouldn't be as much so, as a huge number of people develop for them (they get their own forum BEFORE THE DEVICE IS RELEASED... where's our U8150 forum?! :P )

So it'd be stable before you know it. BORING. xD

Besides, I'm used to working on crap hardware, full of instabilities. My current notebook has a Pentium M and the Worst GPU Ever (Intel GMA 900), and Ubuntu likes to segfault many a thing, just to shake things up a bit.

I'd love to help, either by doing some hardcore debugging or coding. But I'm no good at either, or at least good enough at the former to entertain myself with ridiculous workarounds... but I digress. Since I lack the capacity and patience to sit down, sync, compile, tinker, compile again, and repeat, I humbly thank the devs here for putting their spare time into such a project, and giving us something new to mess with. Heck, the first thing I was told when I got my U8150 (I was pretty stoked: my first Android phone!) was "DON'T BUY THAT PHONE, IT SUCKS [and then] Lol, have fun without Gingerbread".

The person in question is a WP7 fanboy (we won't hold that against him: WP7 is damn fine) with very high standards in phones, and thus seems to hate Huawei's stuff with a passion.

Never mind that though, I'm just glad I can have fun with Gingerbread. ^_^

Thanks again guys. :D
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] King_Rat:
none taken ^^ for those of us that lack linux skills (trolls??) :lol: the only dumb question is the one we don't ask...

If someone asks for ICS & it's not possible... it should be said as much... "Sorry, but it can't be done."

PS - Will we be getting our 1.25 Megapixels back anytime soon?? :D [trollish question I know...] ;)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] e8hffff:
I'm holding out till there is a tablet that can run the majority of linux distributes. Example Kubuntu or PlasmaActive. Until then I'm using the U8150 which is fast enough to do the tasks of Android. I'm not interested in Android gaming or their more dedicated Andriod apps, as they still are limited compared to desktop works.

Having a small device is not important to me. 7" to 10" tablet is suffice.

Note the lower end phones like the U8150 are also used in the so called 3rd world, so it maybe worthy that there are solid rom alternatives.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] aorth:
I live in the so called "third world"... and I bought this phone purely to learn, hack, document, help people get their game up (git, Linux, and hardware skills etc), and promote open source. That's why I started mjanja.co.ke (mjanja means 'Hustler' in Swahili). This phone is incredibly popular in Kenya, something like 500,000 units sold.

My main phone is a Samsung Galaxy S, which already has tons of smart people hacking on it (and a very nice CM7 port). :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] aorth:
I tried the SDK and my personally-compiled ICS and I agree... the emulator is slow. :) Feels much like using a U8150 to be honest. Below is my full-userdebug build running in the emulator... notice it does say "aorth" ;). Trolls: this is AOSP compiled for the Android emulator. Nothing more, nothing less.

Yep, I just have fun learning the build system, pushing to github, merging patches, and chatting with the CM devs on IRC. :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] smashman42:
when I get a better daily phone I want to start learning to build this stuff, I only bought my U8150 because it was a cheapie & I wasn't happy to pay the price of dual core phones outright when my Magic died, now the price is dropping... I only have an original i5 PC & laptop, both with 4gb ram, upgrading to 8gb isn't a problem but more CPU grunt might be being outdated 1156 on the PC (which is techincally my wife's so dual boot is pushing it) & the laptop isn't practical past ram & SSD - is building on this stuff practical or will I need a new box?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] djjoza:
about that troll questions...here's another one :P

in the latest nightly build (1311) my LED notification light lights all the time. i didn't think it was an issue until tonight when it drained 25% of my battery in 6-7 hours!

i tryed Light Flow app which only manages to change the LED color, but it still won't blink...i can get it to either light constantly or not at all.

is there any way around this bug? thanx!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] aorth:
From the ICS test builds I've done in the last few days I think the most important critical factors are RAM and disk. "Critical" in that, if you don't have enough, you'll really feel it. CPU is only important for speed... a slower processor won't inhibit the build from finishing, for example.

The i5 will be fine. My ThinkPad T420 is an i7 Sandy Bridge, but only has two cores. It's not very "fast" for this workload, but it completes it just fine because it has 8 gigs of RAM. In the future I believe RAM and SSD disks will be very important for these builds.

btw, I wanna write up a guide on compiling Ice Cream Sandwich on Ubuntu 11.10. It's not impossible, but it's not completely obvious either. I'll post it here when I get time to write it.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tahahawa:
I don't know where I saw this but I remember someone in the forums looked at the source and saw that arm v6 is not a valid build option and is missing the correct code. That would have to be hacked into the source if you guys want ICS.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] emaxxim:
sorry guys, how do you do this?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ntnlzr:
just copy your ext4 data to another device, format to ext3 sd partition, re-copy from the other device to the new ext3 partition

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] aorth:
Hmm, is the kernel not compiled with ext4 support? I'm not running tilal's build so I don't know... if you are, you can run adb shell cat /proc/filesystems and let me know. I think tilal added ext4 in one kernel update a while ago, but it's possible it's not there (seeing as ext3 does work).

I doubt it. I haven't seen or heard of any work being done in this area recently... :(
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] PaulMilbank:
So when will we get ICS on our Ideos?;)

Good work Devs, cant wait for my last assignment to be done so I can have some fun playing around on my phone with CM7. Doubt I will be too much help as I am only just figuring out the kitchen, but hopefully will have time to learn over the holidays.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sdgs:
I wouldn't hold your breath on ICS.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] AidenM:
Why? we have a great dev.

To tilal: I seriously think you should ask CyanogenMod to become the maintainer of an official CM7 device. We could get it in ROM Manager easier, and it would show recognition.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sdgs:
Yeah we do, I just meant after finishing this, It could take a while to get ICS in a working state.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] smashman42:
Setting up the build environment on my (natty) laptop now, I assume while I have a regular drive & only 4gb ram it'll still build gingerbread, just slowly?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] aorth:
Yep. That'll build Gingerbread just fine. Gingerbread's not nearly as much code as ICS!

Ideos U8150D with CyanogenMod 7.1

Hi all,

i updated my ideos U8150D with update-cm-13112011-U8150-NIGHTLY, on device i see CyanogenMod-7-11122011-NIGHTLY-U8150, and ClockworkMod Recovery 5.0.2.7. Phone is very reactive but i have follow problems:

WiFi don't work: when i try to enable, after some seconds it automatically disable

USB storage pc connection problem: it work fine from ClockworkMod Recovery but don't work with main image. I haven't usb debug enabled.

could you help me ?

PS: i have default kernel 2.6.32.9-perf
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] smashman42:
Did you restore WiFi networks from another ROM with something like Ti? If you restore the saved networks from a Froyo ROM it will do exactly that, on for a second then disable itself.

Known bug for the later nightlies built from the u8160 source - plug into your PC then enable USB tethering & let it load the drivers, then disable & mass storage will work normally till next reboot when you have to do it all over again. This is the current down side of having both multi-touch & overclocking

Hope this helps

Have you some workaround also for wifi ?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] aorth:
Wow, I never tried to use a workaround to mount the SD card in Linux. I just assumed it didn't work, and that there was a problem with the kernel. This is new to me, I'll have to try this later, as it changes the nature of the bug. Namely, I want to look in logcat and dmesg for information about how the UMS and LUNS are changing when the USB tethering is activated.

I hate to suggest it... but you really should try a factory reset to clear any old WiFi settings. :/
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ntnlzr:

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] hmandevteam:
YUPPY also WiFi work after wiped factory settings from recovery :)

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] poruid:
wifi without reset of data

It is also possible to clear the wifi settings from the shell, or even correct them!

(the shell can be entered from the terminal app, or, much more convenient, from the adb shell command).

One time I helped a friend and after the restore of some settings - he had many wireless networks configured that did not want to loose - wifi did not work any more. What caused the problem?

It was a wrong setting in /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf; it should contain this line

ctrl_interface=eth0

The erring settings configured another control interface whose name i do not recall anymore. As an alternative one can remove the file(s).

Please keep in mind that a data reset may still be the way to go. After that some setting may be restored from backup, but with prudence and one must be prepared to tackle error like the wifi stuff has shown.
