camera flash

I tried searching the thread to find an answer, but with the word flash in the search I believe every post in this thread came up. So sorry if this has already been discussed. Every time my camera app, either the one that came with the ROM or the MIUI camera app takes a pic and uses the flash my screen brightness goes all the way up and stays up. Is there a work around or just turn it back down everytime?

Thanks in advance.
[HTC Inspire 4G] di11igaf:
Damn it does. Never noticed it-ill Look into it. Time being just turn it down manually
[HTC Inspire 4G] darkside1904:
Thank you. Damn, I just realized I sounded like a snot nosed little kid. :p My first post in your thread was a problem.

Other than the small screen brightness deal I am loving this ROM. Great job. I am getting excellent battery life and that makes me a happy man.

Thank you for all your hard work.
[HTC Inspire 4G] juannicolas:
Weird, mine does not do that
[HTC Inspire 4G] darkside1904:
Is your display set to auto brightness? I have mine set @15-20% I don't use auto, maybe that has something to do with it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] gtalum:
Mine is set to 15% and I do not have the brightness issue after camera flash.
[HTC Inspire 4G] marsdta:
Tested miui camera with auto brightness on and off and I get the same problem. Not a big deal for me but just wanted to confirm
[HTC Inspire 4G] juannicolas:
:D oh!, well if that so, mine will never do that or present that issue. I have mine auto. :p
[HTC Inspire 4G] di11igaf:
Next small update has the libcamera and camera.apk from 1.0. It does do it, but as soon as you turn screen off it fixes itself, so It doesn't stay at full brightness for long(when you lock phone, it will be back to normal when you unlock).

Update will be up in 2 minutes
[HTC Inspire 4G] di11igaf:
2.1.2 update-

camera and libs from 1.0

advanced call settings in settings now has option to add your phone number(fix no pic for your own mms picture, and unknown # in about phone), blacklist plus a bunch of other options.

no wipe update- must be on at least 2.0-

Using Tasker to toggle between 2G/3G

I don't seem to be able to use tasker to toggle between 2G and 3G using this ROM like I can in CM7. I use it to switch to 2G when connected to wifi or at locations where I know the 3G signal is sketchy. Saves a lot of battery.
[HTC Inspire 4G] diablo009:
Good work dilli on the part of phone settings.

Camera still has the increased brightness issue present, when it is NOT on "auto" mode.
[HTC Inspire 4G] di11igaf:
i know. it will fix itself when you lock the screen. when you unlock brightness will beback to normal. better than nothing for now.
[HTC Inspire 4G] diablo009:
I didn't notice that. Tried now, and yes. It does.
[HTC Inspire 4G] robinjb:
THANK YOU

great job!!! your sense ROM used to be my daily driver- i went on to test several other ROMs and this GingerBeast rocks!!!! very stable and fast. THANK YOU!!!!

GingerBeast is now going to stay put on my Inspire!
[HTC Inspire 4G] substance12:
there are some cm7 features I really like and I'm wondering if they are in this rom.

- ability to add different toggles in the notification bar. i see in the pics there are only 4. is this customizable at all?

- compact carrier text. is it possible to make the AT&T text in the notification bar smaller?

- lockscreen gestures

- music controls on lock screen
[HTC Inspire 4G] di11igaf:
No

No

No

Yes.

Only a few things from cm7 are there, things that I put in all my roms that I can't do without. (Extended reboot options, 4 toggles in noti pulldown). Nothing else, no plan to add anything else, trying to keep this as close to stock Google as possible. If you want all the cm7 features, there's no reason to flash this, makes more sense to just flash cm7. More and more cm framework is removed with each update
[HTC Inspire 4G] tribalartgod:
I feel like such a n00b. :-( A few posts back, I complained about my GPS not working...which it legitimately was not. After further inspection of some things, and downloading the Rom again, everything works fine and dandy. :-D I just had a bad download.

Di11...Thank you for ALL of your great work. And thanks for adding blacklist back in. :-D That's awesome of you. GPS locks before I can even touch the option to "type destination". SICK!
[HTC Inspire 4G] juannicolas:
Indeed, thanks di11
[HTC Inspire 4G] Tx Redneck:
Would someone be willing to try something for me to see if an issue is just on my end or not?

If so, try USB Tethering and see if it reboots your phone when you try to enable it.

TIA,

Tx

EDIT: Here's what I've found so far. On my XP lappy, once you install the driver to enable XP to see the phone as a modem for USB tethering then try to use it, this causes the reboot of the phone.

I'll go try on my Win7 box now.

EDIT: Same thing happens w/ my WIn7 box. Once 7 tries to get the necessary drivers installed, the phone reboots and the drivers never get installed on the box. Subsequent attempts have the same results.

This is on V1.0 and 2.1.1

EDIT: one more time... I don't know if this will help track the issue down or not, I tried it w/ CM7 N87 and the issue isn't present.

My wi-fi us not working... Flashed two times, and yes I searched the thread before posting salty asses.

Turn on Wifi - ERROR
[HTC Inspire 4G] harlenm:
20 meters is not a good lock. Under 10 meters is good. Under 5 meters is excellent.

In a car while driving I'd like to see under 10 meters.

Outside in the open, I'd like to see under 5 meter.

Best I ever saw was 8 feet(I have the app set to feet, not meters), out in the open, no case.
[HTC Inspire 4G] tarheelfanpdx:
Are you running the stock kernel? I have this problem on this time with a with a certain version of the lordmod kernel. Never had any issues with the stock kernel.
[HTC Inspire 4G] gtalum:
This is inside my house. I'm getting a <3m lock when outside.
[HTC Inspire 4G] di11igaf:
Flash the rom, don't restore or change anything .. does wifi work-

First report of this, works fine on both my inspires.

Tx- ill look into USB tethering- is hotspots working?- it should be.

edit- ya tried usb tethering to linux pc, cant test on windows but i get the reboot on linux also, just ran a logcat while it happened, got a good idea where to start to fix it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] harlenm:
If you are in your house connected to your WiFi network, maps will report a 20 meter lock instantly cause it knows where you are. Turn off WiFi and test again.
[HTC Inspire 4G] gtalum:
This is with wifi off. I don't generally test gps with wifi on.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Tx Redneck:
Thank you sir. It never occurred to me try it from my Ubuntu or Open SuSe partitions. :p Glad you were able to replicate it. If you want a logcat from cm7 to compare it to, lemme know.
[HTC Inspire 4G] gmurphy0487:
I've got kind of a weird bug, not really a big deal since running this rom. If I swap batteries, the percentage reads 0 once it boot up. I haven have to swap batteries since I've been on this rom because battery life is amazing. Just wanted to put it out there. This bug was present on v1. 0 also.
[HTC Inspire 4G] di11igaf:
It should at least recalibrate itself after awhile right? Not sure how that would differ from just pulling the battery out, which it doesn't do if you do pull it then replace it which leafs me to believe its something with the battery itself?
[HTC Inspire 4G] gmurphy0487:
I'm not sure. It does it with both batteries. If I plug it in then unplug it, it will show the correct battery percentage. Also I checked my battery monitor widget and it showed the correct voltage in the log but no the correct percentage. Like I said, not a big deal. I just wanted to put it out there in case anyone else noticed. Not asking for a fix by any means as this rom has amazing battery life. I have about 4 hours of screen time today :)

I also don't think it's an issue with my batteries because I haven't seen this with your sense rom.

But the same thing happened with cm7. So not an issue with your rom specifically. I happen to think it's pretty much flawless. Thanks for all the work you do trying to fix the little things we all complain about.
[HTC Inspire 4G] deerxmoose:
Man, this is a great ROM. Using it about 7 days and can't get any better. Pure android.

Although I wish my battery life was a little more better when using mobile data.
[HTC Inspire 4G] gmurphy0487:
You talking about actually browsing or downloading something? Or idle? Because juice defender helps alot with the idle by disabling mobile data when the screen is off. And you can set a schedule to enable it at set intervals for syncs. Works great for me. This rom used with juice defender has about trippled my battery life over stock unrooted.

It started after I plugged my phone in while in my car. Car home launched automatically somehow and after backing out of it, my homescreen was rotating. I just restarted an it stopped tho. Weird.
[HTC Inspire 4G] metaldood:
So I just flashed this. Came from Sense ROM, and just like before having problems with flash player and youtube. I have not updated flash player, I get no sound on normal flash sites..but can see video. And I get black youtube video through youtube.app.

That is the same version which dill has added in this ROM.
[HTC Inspire 4G] metaldood:
forgot to reboot. Flash + sound works. Youtube is still black.
[HTC Inspire 4G] di11igaf:
Did you use titanium backup. I guarantee when you flash this, don't mess with anything- every app will work. It can't really work for my two inspires, but not yours with the same setup unless something else has changed, or a restore broke something- which 99.99999% of the time is the problem
[HTC Inspire 4G] metaldood:
I did restore from TB but flash player was not backed up. I only backup user apps.

Even in TB it says for the flash player 10.2.156.12 "No Backup Yet".

Only Youtube.app shows black video. It doesn't matter though as long as flash + sound works.
[HTC Inspire 4G] macr0t0r:
Finally decided to take the plunge and leave Sense (was using TPC Rom) and get me some pure Googliness...

Holy Crap!

Seriously, if HTC is considered to be the

better

of the Android Skins, then the world should be pissed that only one phone is sold with pure Google at a time. This is awesome!

Things to note:

- Bluetooth keyboard now works. (YES! I can finally ditch my cruddy netbook for long-form emails when I go on trips).

- Faaaaast. I like it!

- Netflix works ('nuff said)

- Stock launcher is far faster and takes a fraction of the memory of Sense.

- I actually like the stock camera better. I see multiple threads on people desparately trying to get the Sense camera, or suggesting the MIUI or Camera360 apps. Frankly, I like how the stock camera has all of the adjustments right on the screen. Press&hold to focus, then release to snap...just like a real camera. It takes the photos at the full 8MP as well. Video frame-rate is solid compared to the glitchy sense version. MIUI camera is okay, but the only advantage that MIUI and Camera360 give are a bunch of foo-foo special effects. I leave that for the desktop.

For me, I needed to re-flash the Radio after installing this to get my GPS to lock on instantly. After using the "Full-Wipe.zip" and installing version 2.1.2 of Gingerbeast, I grabbed the "PD98IMG-att-12.39a.60.19_26.06.06.30_M.zip" file, stuck it in the root SD folder as "PD98IMG.zip" and booted into hboot recovery. After that, my GPS has locked faster than ever with 5m accuracy, and my signal strength is doing great.

I'll have to wait until my phone calibrates it's battery a little before commenting on battery life. Things are always a little short for the first couple days after flashing a new ROM. So far, I love it. Thanks!

I found this when I searched online. Flashed this on my phone, and it is working good.

It has both radio and rc data. Corresponding RIL is attached to this post. Flash the RIL using CWM.

Installation:

Rename the file to PD98IMG.zip, put it on ur sd card, and install via bootloader menu.
[HTC Inspire 4G] di11igaf:
New radio huh? I'm gonna give it a try.
[HTC Inspire 4G] drisner:
Welcome to fun times on your Inspire. Still amazes me how slow Sense ROMs are whenever I try them out.

When you are feeling a little more daring, you might want to try the PUV script. It "undervolts" your CPU doing wonders for your battery life even if you also use SetCPU to overclock your CPU.

Donations to the author/compiler are a great way to show your appreciation....
[HTC Inspire 4G] juannicolas:
I am using same radio and have no issues so far and the signal strength is very high and stable.
[HTC Inspire 4G] diablo009:
This is supposed to be the latest dilli.
[HTC Inspire 4G] di11igaf:
So far so good. Did about 10 tests before, 10 tests after, consistently higher up and down, and finally ping is consistently below 100-which is really good. So far, that's the best I've used. Ill continue some tests tomorrow and update the op with that one- for now I'm gonna say that's probably the best radio out (can't say anything about battery, but it should be fine)
[HTC Inspire 4G] diablo009:
I didn't do speed tests, but wifi seems to be more stable compared to earlier radios.
[HTC Inspire 4G] macr0t0r:
Already donated a few bucks towards dilli. It's more than worth it.

I'm going to hold off on the PUV for now. I haven't needed more battery life in previous ROMs, and I'd rather avoid the occasional mysterious glitch that can occur if your device doesn't have the tolerance margin to handle under-volting. Same thing with SetCPU. I already have enough horsepower to play Asphalt, so there's little purpose in over-clocking (for now).

- Jim
[HTC Inspire 4G] juannicolas:
Ive being using this radio long time, and using it with gbeast and so far i have a good battery life. I did post something about that few days back. Im a heavy internet user, system admin and you what that means, constantly email polling, ssh and remote connections, facebook and tweets and i had a good 21 hours with a full battery charge and also with wifi on.
[HTC Inspire 4G] henrybravo:
Is your sig wrong - it says you're running the new OTA radio (26.06.06.30) but they were talking about 26.09.04.11.

Yes...This is correct. You read the numbers from left to right. If the first set of numbers are the same, they cancel each other out. 26.xx.xx.xx ....The 26 in both numbers would cancel each other out, so move to the next digits...The higher is the newer.

[HTC Inspire 4G] directorfer:
Any one know of a way to edit the "ME" profile within this ROM? Especially add a profile imagine so I don't have the blank box next to "ME" while texting. And is there a way to remove the arrows from the lock screen?
[HTC Inspire 4G] diablo009:
Well... I am loving the 26.09.04.11.

At my

work location

:

I used to ~2000 kbps download, and ~600 kbps upload on the older radio.

Now I am getting ~4500 kbps download, and ~1000 kbps upload speeds.

Battery wise, I don't see much difference.

By the way, my wifi signal seems to be more stable on this radio.

Note: See the date on the last test in pic. That was when my phone was on the old radio. Rest all were done minutes earlier.
[HTC Inspire 4G] directorfer:
Thanks for the reply back; I just might have to try this one with this ROM. How's your GPS with it?
[HTC Inspire 4G] diablo009:
First lock took like ~30 seconds. Then on its less than 10 seconds with ~7 sats atleast. The best accuracy I got was ~4-5 when on road, and ~10-15m when inside home.

[HTC Inspire 4G] diablo009:
I noticed in post where the 11 MB was close to 24 MB. But on close observation, I realized that the zip simply packed the radio, and didn't compress it.

But wow... 349... is more than twice the size of most ROM here.

Battery is impressive dilli.

Brightness set at auto till battery was down to like 70%, and then set at 25%.

Been on 3G/H all along, with a few strips of no signal. Total display on was for online activities.

2h 57m 59s display on purely for online activities

44m 8s phone calls

Battery current level at 10% when I took these stats.

[HTC Inspire 4G] tarheelfanpdx:
Use CWM to flash it
[HTC Inspire 4G] tribalartgod:
35 1/2 Hours uptime, and counting! Still just as stable as after first boot.

Issues Found:

-It doesn't cook me breakfast.

Apps in use daily:

-Messaging (MMS works fine for everything)

-GPS (Locks on at least 4 satellites within 9 seconds)

-Music (MixZing App, 1 to 2 hours daily)

-Facebook

-Advanced Task Killer (Might delete soon, as it's not technically needed)

-Market

Download Speeds are greatly improved! No changes to APN or build.prop, and speeds are consistently 3.2Mbps or higher, where previous Roms were only around 2.

I know Quadrant isn't accurate anymore, because you can spoof it...but at the current uptime, and NO overclocking (Stock settings that came with the Rom), I am consistently hitting 1900+.

So far, "Ginger Beast" is living up to the name. Those other Roms are starting to cower in the corner!
[HTC Inspire 4G] di11igaf:
Good, glad its working out good. May have a new build compiled tonight. I'm gonna try to make it a no wipe for those already running this. Also may make a seperate build with all the cm mods removed, so it will be a more pure aosp than a modded aosp rom.

Ill see if I can get it to compile with BREAKFAST_COOK_MODE=yes
