Guys Can anyone guide me to a fix(if there any) to the video recording freezes in CyanogenMod 7.1.0-11 Stable?i couldn't find it(maybe i didn't search right)

i only found fixes for the later versions but not this one

and if lg camera is the only solution can someone provide me with the right settings values used?(although i think lg camera is not as smooth as cm7 camcoder)

thanx in advance
[Defy Android Development] jh20:
really? i thought the videocam problem was already fixed in that version. did you wipe cache when flashing the rom? try rebooting into recovery and do a wipe cache (not data!).

alternatively try wiping camera data in menu/manage applications/all/camera/clear data and see if it helps.

lastly, don't be sceptical, flash the latest nightly 120102. trust me.....
[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
Yo!

You have red or green lens?

But anyway, I believe that I've used the exact same fix on the nightly you refer to (as I now also use with the Dec13 Defy+ one) with good results. It's all explained here; probably what you've found and did not try..?

I don't know about lg camera- sorry. I've used it once and didn't really see the point of it.

Cheers.

Edit:

Btw: Water79 has just posted an Atrix Blur Camera apk on his MS2Ginger rom thread.

I've tried it on Dec13 Defy+ nightly (in conjuntion with his overlay.omap3.so also - the one attached on the refered link above) and it works fine. I don't know if it's a placebo effect, but it does seem a little more responsive than with with tweak mentioned above. I will do more testing later.

And this is with red lens camera obviously (Defy+ nightly...).

EDIT: this doesn't work - as explained somewhere on a post below.

I did a booboo while renaming the original Camera.apk

Lesson learned: rename the file extension when disabling an apk NOT just what's before ".apk"
[Defy Android Development] jayanth1255:
@mr00t

Thank you so much for reply.
[Defy Android Development] twa_priv:
Hi AL,

So you were able to install the Atrix Blur Camera.apk normally by just selecting the apk and install it - or did you copy the apk to /system/app?

The install fails for me with an "Application not installed" message. Am I missing something?

I'm also on the 12/13 Defy+ nightly with the overlay fix applied.

Thanks
[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
OK well, it seems that when I've placed it in system folder and renamed the original apk as Camera_1110.apk it ignored the new file and still loaded the old one giving me version 2.3.5.

Once I renamed the old one Camera_1110.apk_, the install failed and didn't load any camera.

So that explain why I couldn't see any difference ..and confirm the placebo effect :p.

So it's a "no go" afterall; sorry about that! It was worth a try..
[Defy Android Development] twa_priv:
Still no luck. Renaming and copying the apk to /system/app also doesn't work for me.

The log shows that the atrix camera apk requires the unavailable shared library com.motorola.blur.library.utilities - which of course I not have. Wondering how this could have worked for you...

Thanks anyway
[Defy Android Development] bihariel:
could you make a update.zip or give us the files that fix the 720p playback, because i really need it now and can´t wait to next beta. ah and that issue was the last one for me to have a full working cm7, the other issues do not affect me because i do not use them.

btw very good job you are the best.
[Defy Android Development] peetr_:
That is not true, I have not found any proof, that it's a hardware thing, and if you can make 720 pixels high photo, you can make 720 pixels high movie. The question is, what quality and how much fps.
[Defy Android Development] AkkiandDefy:
The proof is that it doesn't work.....

Read the thread with it for froyo..

It worked for no one who had a green lense

That thing , that a camera that can take photos with 720p can record videos in hd is not true.....

Omg... But it doesn't mean, that it can't be done! If it's this chip http://www.ovt.com/products/sensor.php?id=65, then it supports not even 720p, but also 1080p.

[Defy Android Development] ABC_Universal:
What do you mean? Or do you think I don't know there are red and green lense?

The reason why 720p recording works only for red lense is that the developer of the Hancocks rom modified only the red lense drivers. He didn't modified the green lense drivers and neither did any one else.

Check the following threads for details/history of 720p recording:

cm72-111223.0500-NIGHTLY-Defy+ focus problem

I tried cm72 (gb kernel builds):

1. cm72-111213.0943-NIGHTLY-Defy+.zip --- camera FC

2. cm72-111223.0500-NIGHTLY-Defy+ --- camera picture inverted and cannot get correct focus.

I read 111213 nightly needs overlay replace, how about 111223 nightly ? Can the overlay replace fix the incorrect focus problem ?

I have a read lens Defy.
[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
I haven't tried cm72-111223.0500-NIGHTLY-Defy+ yet. But yes, with the overlay replacement AND the Camera. apk (from nov 10th) [to fix the zoom while recording issue] things are pretty much perfect for me.

The focus has never been the greatest on my phone; Touch-to-focus, Pre-Focus, Long Focus or full-auto: gives me pretty much the same picture quality.

But i'm not complaining; like I said it's pretty close to perfect.
[Defy Android Development] wyumhk:
Thanks.

In my case, 111223 has auto-focus problem, so the quality of the photos taken are not acceptable.

I am now on cm72-120102.0338 (Froyo) + WajkIUI dualboot, so I'll try 111223 (gb) w/ overlay fix later.

[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
Well, that is very strange because the tweak works well for twa_priv and myself at least...

- You've set the permissions/ownerships of both the replaced Camera.apk and the lib and have rebooted?

- Are you sure that you did not leave a copy of the old camera in /system/app? or even did like me yesterday and improperly remaned a backup file [need to change the file extension; not just the name before the ".apk"

Otherwise, try to clear the Camera's cache/data...

It should work fine; there has to be something not done right here...

---------- Post added at 10:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:11 AM ----------

Thank for the headsup on this.

So have you tried replacing the Camera.apk as well; does that fix the picture inversion?

Do you know if Maniac's commits regarding the lockscreen [fixes for proper next calendar event display and dual display (next alarm and next calendar event)] are included? Because that's is really something that I'd like to see implemented in Epsylon3's build...
[Defy Android Development] twa_priv:
Off Topic - but maybe useful for some:

A few days ago I've installed this app which switches to 2G after a configurable time. It works fine on CM7 with either the Froyo or GB kernel and definitely gave me some boost in battery life. For example, I used to loose about 2 to 2.5 % per hour overnight but with this app installed it's about 1 to 1.5% and in i've probably added about half a day to my battery life.

---------- Post added at 04:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:55 AM ----------

No, I haven't tried replacing the Camera.apk. But if I remember correctly I tried it on the previous 111223.0500 Defy+ nightly and it didn't help.

Regarding lock screen - alarm/events on the lockscreen are not really important to me, so I didn't check this. However, I did notice that the lockscreen appearance (rotary revamped in my case) has changed a little and it looks nicer.

[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
OK, I have 2 questions a little more technical here...:

Is there any value in using these 2 mods (as Walter79 is using on his MS2Ginger rom):

1- Using this zipalign at boot script; or is it something CM7 is doing already? I've install that mod and from its log I can see that it is doing the alignment at boot...I just don't want to do it twice for nothing...

2- Using the (GB kernel and red-lens only) 3D performance update? Would this EGL (drivers?) update improve things on Defy+ nightly or not? I see a few changes in system/lib/egl but since I've never been a fan of benchmarks, I can't really tell if it is of any help or not.

Cheers.

[Defy Android Development] Otto.BR:
I'm still on the 120102 (froyo) one, it's fast, stable and everything works so great!

I tested the GB builds up to 111213 (whith camera fix) and couldn't see any improvement.

IMHO, the phone didn't feel so respponsive and battery life seemed worse, but that's my opnion, so i will stick to froyo a lil longer for daily use.

P.S. i love the new separete media volumes -with/without headset!- it's a great feature, now i just wish music would resume after a call (if i don't answer music resumes normally) ...

any info/changes on your latest KANG vs the previous one?

[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
OK, well thanks for your comment.

It was a lot of files permissions setting (5 and 7 files in /system/lib/egl folder), but I did more testing and used 3 different free benchmarks (AnTuTu, An3DBench and An3DBenchXL), 3 times each for with and without the update. So 18 runs total and I could not see any statistical significance within all that (2D or 3D) on the Defy+ nightly.

My gouvernor was at 'on-demand'; I wonder if using performance would have made a difference [I read something about that from Walter somewhere], but since on-demand is what I always use, I figured that I'll trust my results and conclude that the 3D performance update doesn't help much.

Would you mind just sharing what you've used to benchmark? No need to repost; you can just edit your last one...

Thanks again.

And as far as battery/responsiveness goes, for me Defy+ nightly is as good as the

normal one. At night (in airplane mode) -in stanby- I see around (and sometimes over) 3 hours for 1% drop; daytime with 2G/no data and wifi ON, I get around 1h50min for 1% drop - which is ain't bad at all...

Edit:

I've noticed that one of my game (Motal Skies) is much smoother w/o the 3Dperformance update; so that is the last nail in the coffin for that tweak...

How to build CM7 for GB kernel

May I ask ask Epsilon, Maniac, Quarx (or anyone else who knows) to help me out building CM7 for the GB kernel.

I have my 4 core / 4 GB ubuntu VM up an running, checked out Epsilons gingerbread stuff from git as usual:

repo init -u git://github.com/tpruvot/android.git -b gingerbread

repo sync

So far I tried building as follows:

. build/envsetup.sh

brunch jordan

The resulting builds, however, are Froyo based.

What do I need to change to build it for the GB kernel? I can see that there is a gingerbread-plus branch of tpruvot/android_device_motorola_jordan but I don't know how to use this one during compile time. repo init ... -b gingerbread-plus doesn't work.

Also, is it possible to modify the code/config so that the build works for the 4.5.3-109 kernel/boot/devtree (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1263212).

Using the Defy+ nightlies I get stuck on the M logo when flashing this kernel - however, for some reason that I don't understand the 4.5.2-109-DHT22 kernel works fine.

Both 4.5.3-109 and 4.5.2-109-DHT22 have the same CG versions so I would have thought both should work.

Any help and/or pointers to useful documentation/blogs etc. would be greatly appreciated because I haven't had any luck to find any which go deeper into building/developing for CM.

Thanks

Are you sure that there is really a difference with the Bravia engine?

Screen capture cannot be used to compare pics before/after since this is post processing and if you take a picture of the screen to compare, then you'd need two phones side by side (and a very good focussing) to get a real comparison...

Lastly, I thought of trying that "mod" before, but from what I've read on this today, it is very unlikely to improve anything on phones without the native swiqi service from Sony.
