Thanks for the efforts. Enjoying my OV a lot more now.

I do have an issue using the BACKside 8/20 release.

My wired headset mic does not work. It worked just fine with stock rom days ago.

I am able to hear just fine, but no one can hear me. Tried about 10 different mics, none worked.

Would this be the same as the issue noted in 8232011 release being fixed?

12e078e2	synrgi	SystemUI: Show mic-less headphone icon in status bar (1/2)	August 11, 2011

Thanks!

EDIT: flashed 8242011 rom release... didnt fix the wired mic issue. any idea what I can do.?
[Optimus V Android Development] Archangel013:
Update: Just reflashed the 08/24 build and gapps, and there's still no service. I'll attempt using a restore I made earlier today when I get home if it's still not working by then.

EDIT: The issue seemed to correct itself after about 5 reboots. The phone still randomly enters airplane mode though.

I flashed mrg666 0824 and could not turn on 3g and had no internet over wifi. I had 0823 before and it worked fine. I went back to 0820 and it's fine again.
[Optimus V Android Development] Ventrue05:
join the club. they seem to disregard this as far as i know.
[Optimus V Android Development] jawz101:
I just have to say that the battery life on IHO is actually the worst battery life I've ever had on a ROM (Harmonia, BumbleBee, Rodimus, aosp included). I never have sync nor bluetooth active on my phone- ever. And even if sync were to turn on I have neither books nor Picasa albums to sync to and the options are unchecked on what to sync for each account and anything that has a sync frequency is either at the max amt of time or never. I only turn 3g, wifi & gps on if I'm using it. Have my speed set to 480/600 conservative.

Basically I'm trying to say that the IHO ROM isn't great at battery life and if it is sometimes it isn't consistent.
[Optimus V Android Development] EmuZombie:
August 24th build of IHO-Purity is out.

Changelog:

-Sync'd with CM7.1

-Added build string to identify rom. See Settings | About Phone | Build Number

-Fixed camera issues.

-Email.apk replaced with version from previous build that does not FC.

[Optimus V Android Development] mrg666:
Such network disconnections also happened to me few times not only with several builds of IHO but Froyo based custom ROMs and even stock ROM. It was corrected by switching airplane mode on and off. I think that is a hardware glitch. Otherwise WiFi and 3G are working fine for me with 08242011 in two OVs here.
[Optimus V Android Development] GhostCow:
I'm glad I'm not the only person experiencing this. I've never posted about it because so many people praise the battery life that I thought maybe my battery was crapping out or something, but I've only had my phone for about 6 months.

The only two things I have syncing are gmail and google+, but I also run Trillian. I had much better battery life on both stock and aosp than I get with IHO. Still love this rom though.
[Optimus V Android Development] JerryScript:
We don't disregard it, it is a known issue which has a proper bug report listed. We do ask that you check the bug list before reporting them, otherwise your post may be ignored since it's already been reported. ;)

The issue is with the keyboard layout files, which we cannot decompile. Blarf is working on this and other issues with mik9, but since the source for LG's headsets implementation is not open, it is not easy to fix. Imagine having a haystack and needing to pull just the right straws without being told which ones. ;)
[Optimus V Android Development] JerryScript:
Sorry to hear you are having issues. Perhaps you could list all the apps you have installed, and a screen shot of the Spare Parts app's Battery Usage Statistics. With some more info, we might be able to determine what is causing your battery drain. Just saying what you have turned off gives us no idea of what is still turned on. ;)

I get about the same battery life I used to get on aospCMod, right around 1 day per charge.

My Email still FC's and I don't seem to have a camcorder icon.

GPS Issues

I just wanted to say something about the gps issues I have been having... Ever since the GPS got botched on Jerry's build on 8/17 when some tweaks were made for battery life, the GPS has been awfully inaccurate... I use the GPS constantly for taking the bus using google maps and it takes a long time to lock and never really gets close to my real position.. I've used several builds since 8/12 of both Jerry's and BobZ and they both have this problem..

I'm going to wipe my whole data/system and reflash to a pre 8/17 build and let you know if that fixes it...
[Optimus V Android Development] blarfiejandro:
My suggestion is to do a wipe and retry one of the newer builds. I can get a lock down to 8 meters (typically 10-20m) inside, which I'd say is pretty accurate for living in a fairly densely populated city with lots of overhead wiring.
[Optimus V Android Development] blarfiejandro:
Let me start off with the most important thing: this is an open source project. You, and everyone else, has access to everything being used to build, fix, and otherwise modify IHO. By hosting on Github, you can even download the entire wiki as it's merely a git repository. All the version information, everything is publicly accessible. As such I fully expect constructive posts. You, and everyone else, can always pick up where I leave off. If you don't like how someone is doing something or how someone (myself, anyone building or distributing a ROM, etc) is prioritizing a bug you have at least four options:

- Fix it yourself and submit the bugfix for inclusion in the IHO repository

- Fix it yourself and create your own fork

- Make a constructive contribution to this dev thread such as ensuring that there's a proper bug report filed, commenting on a closed bug report if the bug has been reintroduced, etc.

- Use a different ROM

When you were younger you probably heard someone say "If you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything at all." This thread is like that. If you don't have something constructive to add, please don't post. "they seem to disregard this as far as i know" is not constructive. I just checked and don't see anything regarding microphone gain that's currently open in the issue tracker (no this is not issue #10).

That said, I've been mentioning for a while that my development pace will slow down a bit, and it has. I've got other things going on, and right now I've got a ROM that does what I need it to do for my use cases. But... the last time I made changes to the audio libraries, I tried the factory headset. At that point the headset mic was properly enabled, the phone's mic was properly disabled, and I was able to use the two IVRs I tried with no problem. I haven't touched the audio code in a while, but I also haven't updated to a new build in a few days so there may have been regressions.

The best thing I can think of right now is MAYBE to try disabling the auto gain/volume control. Dunno if that's output only or input/output.

I get the feeling you're referencing a few different issues, Jerry.

- The wired headset button is something that needs either some kernel hacks or some other tweaks. I did just remove mik's daemon (might be worth actually trying it in the first place :P). Apparently mik's moved the headset button stuff into the kernel —*I've mixed feelings on this but I intend to make an effort to get this working in-kernel because it seems to be the lesser of two evils. His patch does not work for me with the IHO kernel. AFAIK the headset button(s) is not being initialized at all right now so Android's not seeing any headset button key events.

- The mic volume is not something I even see listed in Github (not something I've had a problem with either).

- The power button always ends call is an issue with the debugger keymap file. This is part of the CM7 (inherited from AOSP) repo, and is a simple text file.

So I seem to have everything up and running and it all runs great, but i'm not sure if i'm the only one having an issue with my phone not allowing me to install apps from the market. It keeps retooling me that i'm running low on space. That couldn't be possible since I have 70mb if space open on internal storage. It has green like this for a while but I didn't think about saying anything until now. I guess I was just trying to get by but I hate missing updates because I didn't install something from the market.

Thanks guys
[Optimus V Android Development] krnrice:
Hi, I just installed this ROM. Seems like its working fine so far (maybe cuz i havent really played with it yet?). But how do I get rid or change the boot sound? Thank you!
[Optimus V Android Development] dingermtb:
Go into your file manager, i use root explorer, system/media and you can delete it there. Or you can add your own as long as you rename it android_audio.mp3
[Optimus V Android Development] Kreatur3:
The issue I get with the mic is, if when listening to music through my stereo, I used to be able to talk through my stereo but with the cm7 builds it doesn't work. Froyo it worked fine. Almost like the mic gets turned off when plugged into my stereo. I know it's an issue I just choose to ignore it and hope for a fix someday. :)
[Optimus V Android Development] nonsense23:
I have the same problem since the new market app update. I cannot update most of the apps and when I go check my apps on market, I always get different numbers of it installed.
[Optimus V Android Development] krnrice:
I am used "ASTRO" to system/media and tried to delete it but it says "error deleting file". and also download an app called "ES file explorer" (i couldnt find "root exploer" from android market) and still says "android_audio.mp3 cannot be deleted". Do I need to change setting or something?
[Optimus V Android Development] blarfiejandro:
I believe that issues installing apps with the new market have been reported and confirmed on other phones.
[Optimus V Android Development] dingermtb:
Must be mounted as read/write. With root explorer, and most file managers are read only as default. With root explorer the tab is in upper right corner. Click that when in system/media folder. Not sure with other file managers. May be in settings. Just make sure it's read/write (R/W) and not read only (R/O)
[Optimus V Android Development] JerryScript:
In ES File Explorer, press the menu key, select Settings, then scroll down to the bottom and check Root Explorer and Mount File System. Then you'll be able to change/delete/copy/paste any file. ;)

You want to delete, rename, or replace, /system/media/android_audio.mp3

In honor of the recent builds, check out the new bootsound! :)

I tested, rebooted, then tested again the following:

-- Market - updated and installed new apps

-- Camera - took pictures and videos with audio

-- GPS - maps and the browser both lock on quick, navigation icon present

-- Accelerometer - tested on My Paper Airplane and in settings menus, worked fine

-- Email - both my yahoo and gmail accounts synced and notified me

-- Browser - tried server sites, different ones before and after reboot

I did have to reflash gapps, ymmv. ;)
[Optimus V Android Development] hfl12:
I flashed my phone back to jerry's build last night from mrg. While in cal class my battery went out, so I changed my battery( i have three). Before I changed the battery I recalled that it doesn't make any sound at start up or was set to very low, i wasn't sure. Turned on the phone and bam!!! The phone started singing and laughing louding. My teacher said it was too much for cal and other students laugh. Embarrassing. It was my fault I forgot about the start up sound in jerry's build
[Optimus V Android Development] pdxtechdoctor:
I already did that before my post. I wipe everything but my main SD partition and then flashed BoBZ 0822...

Its not that I just can't get a lock because I can, but it take what seems an eternity compNow I'm lucky if it is accurate within the 30 sec screen timeout.. and also now the screen blacks out it has to start the sync all over again.. I'm sure this was meant as a battery saver and it probably is for someone that uses it occassionally, but since I use it ALOT its a deal breaker for me..

Maybe something else has changed or maybe I'm crazy.. I'm going to do my wipe and installed BACKside 0810 this morning and I'll report back. If it works as expected, I'll rewipe and install BACKside 0825

Thanks for your response
[Optimus V Android Development] DeerSteak:
IT'd suck if it was me, but that gave me a laugh hfl12. Thanks, man. :D

edit: whoever put the "debug-formatSYSTEM.zip" file on the wiki, it's apparently using Amend scripting and isn't compatible with the IHO CWM 4 recovery. Is this the same as going into the "mounts and storage" menu and selecting to format system?
[Optimus V Android Development] pdxtechdoctor:
Ok I just flash BACKside 0810... Installed maps and opened it and it showed the whole USA. I hit the my location button and within 2 seconds it had me locked and it said within 60 meters accurate, but it was dead on on the map... I've been fighting GPS with the new builds and now it is back to where I expect it to be.. I don't have time to reflash this morning but I'm going to use it today make sure it is working right and then I'll reflash to a new build tomorrow..
[Optimus V Android Development] moore.bryan:
Does this mean if I flash the ROM, I'll also have to reflash gapps?

I'd suggest using a new app out on the xda forums called betterbatterystats rather than spare parts .just found out about it yesterday. takes the ambiguity out of finding wake locks.i think my problem was the email service and a particular email account I had set up. since then Iremoved that account and it's looking good so far.
[Optimus V Android Development] Kolma:
Won't let me delete boot sound from Jerry's 8-25 build using file manager...

also realized all my google account stuff was missing... reflashed gapps and everything was right as rain

currently waiting for google contacts to appear, will let phone finish synching and let's see if I will have to manually rejoin google contacts with their facebook counterparts

*edit nope, gonna have to rejoin them.

*edit 2 used https://market.android.com/details?id=gpc.myweb.hinet.net.TaskManager&feature=search_result to delete boot sound

Now it's perfect again :D (also what happened to third boot screen? it does LG, then IHO, then black screen... and then it boots fine
[Optimus V Android Development] Soooooo:
2.3.5 got it....
[Optimus V Android Development] prech:
Very much enjoy using your builds, JerryScript -- would it be possible to incorporate camera sound silencing?

Or perhaps generating an optional simple Zip file the enable this?

I flash my ROM every time you update your build, and find myself doing a manual Zip update for the circle battery mod (UOT), then manually renaming/deleting the camera click sound files

I would imagine there are many others here at XDA who feel the same?:)
[Optimus V Android Development] El Schisne:
1. Download AudioManager (free) from the Market.

2. In the AudioManager app, set "System Volume" to 0.

This disables not only the shutter sound but also the focus sound, which can't be removed by deleting a file on the filesystem (i.e., it's built into the Camera.apk binary).
[Optimus V Android Development] JerryScript:
I wont be removing the camera click sound due to it being legally required in some jurisdictions.

(gotta keep those upskirters from snapping silent shots ;) )
[Optimus V Android Development] mrg666:
I just wanted to say that I will not be around that frequently anymore. I wanted to thank all of you, my fellow pure builders, EmuZombie and PBailey, and of course first of all Blarf. I have uploaded the latest ROM that I will keep on my phone from now on which is doing everything I need and very stable. Technically, the major work seems to be completed. But I am sure the creativity of Jerry, Bob, and LeslieAnn will yield much more polished builds. I will be watching their work, Guys, please start your own threads and post screenshots. Cheers!
[Optimus V Android Development] blarfiejandro:
Say what? If you put the phone in silent or vibrate mode it won't make the shutter sound. I think it's just lack of planning with the camera app. Compare that to the camera in an Apple laptop. When it's on there's a green LED that indicates it's on. That's hardwired, not something that can be controlled by software at all.
[Optimus V Android Development] blarfiejandro:
What went into fixing the camera?
[Optimus V Android Development] crpeck:
That camera sound has to be the most obnoxious sound they could find! First thing I do after a flash is either delete the camera_click.ogg file, or, replace it with a simple, quiet 'click' sound.

BTW - I'm on Jerry's latest build now, all looks good. I'm gonna miss LeslieAnns status bar from the Harmonia build - that was beautiful. Any change of getting just that in a flashable zip?
[Optimus V Android Development] JerryScript:
This may be out of date, or just plain wrong, but I remember reading about this a while back:

http://techfragments.com/news/318/Tech/New_Law_Will_Require_Camera_Phones_to_Click.html
[Optimus V Android Development] JerryScript:
We aren't sure what happened, but all of the builds from 0823 (i think that's the date) had an issue were you couldn't take pics, just vids.
[Optimus V Android Development] DeerSteak:
mrg666 - so long and thanks for all the...errr...ROMs.
[Optimus V Android Development] moore.bryan:
@JerryScript: I spent the day (from ~4am) installing/clean wiping/reinstalling your various BACKside builds--specifically, the 8/20, 8/23, and 8/24 builds--and have some interesting battery results. On both the 23 and 24 ROMs, my battery eats power at no less than 8% per hour; however, on the 20, it was never more than 1% per hour. When I tooled with the 8/25 build you posted, numbers were a little better at 5% or so per hour.

These numbers all came before I installed any apps and/or synced the phone with any accounts.

Thought it was strange... it may very well be an incredibly strange fluke with my particular phone, but can't figure-out why...
[Optimus V Android Development] Kolma:
Now the insufficient space error is starting to get to my more important apps...

Not sure WHY it says i have no space (yes i clear cache and dalvik cache between every rom update, and once again when errors like these happen just to make sure)

i used Alogcat and got this

Anyone know what's wrong?
[Optimus V Android Development] YouArePoop:
I believe that even though it days you have 70 megs free, not all of that is available to use for downloading apps. I had a similar problem trying to get cut the rope.
[Optimus V Android Development] Anaror:
I'm not sure if anyone else is noticing this, but i just tried the latest rom and my phone acts pretty laggy. I also kept having problems trying to select icons and move them around. I did a clean install too, cleared everything off. =/ probably just my phone though.
[Optimus V Android Development] DeerSteak:
I flashed mrg666's status bar but i'm not a fan. How do I go back to stock? Reading the room didn't do it and I don't want to format and have to reinstall every app because of a status bar-I'll just live with it if that's what I have to do.thx.
[Optimus V Android Development] mrg666:
You can flash this file for stock status bar. I will add this to the optional files list in Wiki

Is it the Rom's fault or google's?
[Optimus V Android Development] fr0zenblood75:
The gapps that are posted are kinda outdated is there a reason or is it better tl get the latest gapps?
[Optimus V Android Development] blarfiejandro:
Look at the first post.
[Optimus V Android Development] blarfiejandro:
Well I'm sure you'll be happy to know that I was able to accidentally replicate this problem with an Apple USB wall charger (20hrs and still 9% left even with that stupid live wallpaper running I was happy tho). My Motorola cigarette lighter adapter charged fine(!) — it typically charges very slowly with other ROMs. My LG charger still works fine. I've ditched the LG cable because it won't connect to the phone reliably, and am using an older Motorola micro USB cable. Given that battery life seems about par and I've had to muck with the USB charging code to get the wired tethering to work I think it's a kernel problem.

Note that my Motorola car and wall chargers identify as an AC charger, but the Apple wall charger identifies as a USB charger.

In the interim if you're having problems charging make sure your phone is plugged directly into a high power USB port ****OR**** a wall charger that's not too smart for its own good like Apple's
[Optimus V Android Development] fr0zenblood75:
Thanks! :D should have read twice
[Optimus V Android Development] JerryScript:
I updated the link in my BACKside post to the same gapps as Blarf posted.

I could be wrong, but it really shouldn't matter which one you use, so long as it is gapps for gingerbread. Once you sign in to google at start up, you will get the latest releases of most of the gapps automatically downloaded.
[Optimus V Android Development] JerryScript:
Or you can buy two extra batteries and an exterior wall charger with usb port for about $12 from china. Takes about three weeks to receive, but I'm never worried about battery life, I always have a spare charged up and ready to go. ;)
[Optimus V Android Development] startak11:
anyone have an issue with grooveip disconnecting after the call connects? i've nandroided back to a few different roms and it only happens on this rom.

I really love this rom!
[Optimus V Android Development] punkmaxx:
Same here saved me alot of trouble since I started using smart phones. No ROMs battery life is too short for testing if you have extra batteries. But I digress.
[Optimus V Android Development] JerryScript:
I just tested GrooveIP, and can confirm the issue. I opened it, entered my account info, and it loaded up fine. I placed a call, it connected, then the app itself seemed to sign out, putting me back on the sign in screen. I tried multiple times, each time with the same results.

I just grabbed logcat and dmesg of it, I'll try to see if it's the ROM or the app.

Edit: I posted in the GrooveIP thread to see if their dev can shed some light on this as well.

[Optimus V Android Development] clemsonteric:
I noticed this as well and have been trying different things to get it (grooveip) to work right... no luck though. I was about to reflash to a different rom, but I'll wait a bit and see if it can be fixed.

I also noticed that sipdroid does the same thing, but csipsimple seems to work ok.

I used the older gapps that were first posted, so I was going to use the newer version to see if that does anything...
[Optimus V Android Development] startak11:
I flashed a variety of gapps from different days, etc. trying to fix grooveip. I could not get it to work.
