Me too back to DSC .73

I miss swype ! Any link for this swype compatible with this rom ? I think i was using even for .6x roms !

I was easily getting back up of 1-2 days with dsc . 2.2.17 MIUI lasted 1 day. Good but Bad :D (Especially battery backup...)

0.74 prerelease test

Hi!

--

0.74 test

--

Lite Phoenix kernel (VDD table should be identical to Min1), as casual user don't need all features.

DSConfig updated - now you can choose normal or hPa's patched (sleep disabled) WiFi driver.

DSC Gain tool - configure audio driver gain levels. And brightness (it can ignore auto setting and lock set backlight level)/

DSC USSD Sender tool - tool to send USSD/MMI requests. Again, hunderteins rocks.

Russian locale added to DSC toolset.

DalvikVM from CM (a little bit faster)

--

Though i think it's ok, but as i didn't touch current state for long time, i might broke or overlook something.

--

As always, any feedback is welcome.

--

Sergei,

DSC Team.

Almost forgot: I serously consider this worth v1.0 :)

And we need to choose FileExpert replacement.

Changelog:

22.03.2012: Menu button lit on missed calls.

22.03.2012: Updated with hunderteins libril-qc-1 patch. USSD works! DSC USSD Sender removed.

20.03.2012: There was an older kernel. Fixed.

Does 0.74 also have the bluetooth stack from the cm7-rom? Or maybe is it possible to get it over to the dsc? Be it as it is, im going to test yout new rom now... downloading...
[Streak 5 Android Development] cdzo72:
For Swype all you need to do is go to Swype website, sign up and they email you the installer. In your ROM you have to do a search for "swype" and delete everything that comes up before installing the swype installer and subsequent app so that you don't have any crashes.-

What you will be deleting is the apk in /system/app and some databases and libs... the new Swype beta will install its own
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
I wish i know the way BT stack is done in Android - i personally don't use it at all.

--

You might want to try

/system/lib/bluez-plugin/*

liba2dp.so

from CM7
[Streak 5 Android Development] Appus:
Thanks.

Since I read that as beta, I thought of asking.

Another doubt is, Why removing apps like document editor, swipe etc when creating Rom?
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
I'm unsure what ROM you're reffering to, as Swype is available in DSC, and QuickOffice apk link is in first post.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Appus:
Sorry.. I couldnt find the swype in DSC. When i select input method, i dont see any other keyboard.

I was wondering what happened to .70 as i was getting swype in .63

I do not know how i missed. I just flashed and didnt do a 'factory reset' ! I read somewhere 'you can just flash it over any gb rom' !

Thanks for the clarification !
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
When you first installed DSC, your system rebooted and swype.apk was placed in /data/app. If it's not - unpack /etc/dsc_firstboot.zip and install swype.apk manually.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Appus:
Installed manually. Thanks a ton ! That was the only app missing in Firstboot.zip

Love this ROM ! Thank you so much !
[Streak 5 Android Development] sparky4017:
Hi n0p in the states you must have a bluetooth head set to talk while driving they will fine you up to $7500 for driving while talking on your phone without one
[Streak 5 Android Development] Crinos512:
More or less, depending on which state you are in...
[Streak 5 Android Development] gostl:
Okay, .74 lloks good. No issues so far. Well done!

I dont know how restrictive laws are in Ukraine, in Germany you're 40€ (approx 55USD) poorer if you get cought with the phone in your hand driving. But the Streak has it's own hands free build in ;) Im using the bluetooth headset a lot and liked the good support in cm7 and also some more features but the battery life is really annoying :( so im staying with dsc and i dont expect anything but im hoping for the best that there will be a 'best of all worlds solution' someday...
[Streak 5 Android Development] ivantastic:
@sergei

im running 0.74 since 8hours ago, everything's great, nice, cool dsc gain ;)

but just... i got more batt. consumption here... about 20% for 1 hour :'(

i think i will use min3 here, or...any better advise?

however, i feel cool & smooth here in 0.74 ;)

thanks, as always... amazing!!! awesome update!!! :)

---------- Post added at 01:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:04 AM ----------

hmm..., i saw swype in 0.70

but if not, u just put it (from 0.63) to 0.70 preflash, so u will get swype as your default keyboard ;)
[Streak 5 Android Development] TiGuy82:
I'm having issues with the notification LED, aren't working at all.

But I will keep in tests! :)
[Streak 5 Android Development] ivantastic:
for led..

try to change it manually inside build.p, set to 1 -> reboot
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
While i don't experience it myself, i'd like to get more info -

What do this apps:

CPU Spy,

Better battery stats

say about your device states?
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
Oops.

Looks like an older kernel was in 0.74 test.

Sorry.

Download link is not working.
[Streak 5 Android Development] lordmorphous:
Which kernel should it be or is it a special one for this build?
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
Server is overloaded now.

--

I wanted to include Lite kernel from start -

No CIFS, TUN, NFS, NTFS, EXT2/4
[Streak 5 Android Development] lordmorphous:
I've lost track of the kernels now....:-)

I'll just wait until the server is back up. 74 is working well for me. I thought the battery drain was a little high, but not as bad as cm7 and miui. However I didn't know if maybe my expectations were flawed after testing out the other two roms.

Is 2.3.7 in DSC's future? Are there any advantages to it for us? I've noticed in the latest install of DSC that wifi switched over to 3G with wifi set to turn off when screen is off. Keeps connection going for me at home with wifi without any third party app to control anything. The battery I would have saved by leaving wifi on all the time was mostly negated by wifi fixer or wifi reassociate anyway. This is with using your wifi files, and not hpa's.
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
Shane, to be honest, i really want to stop ROM making and start fully enjoying the device :)

Now we even have USSD running!

--

As hPa stated, Phoenix kernel is enough to make CM9 running (it was my biggest concern) - he solved touchscreen problems, videodrivers available, so i think it's just a matter of not very distant time CM9 will get ported.

--

We did a lot as team, thanks everyone involved!
[Streak 5 Android Development] lordmorphous:
I don't blame you, you've no doubt put countless hours into what you have done for all of our benefit. I feel it is feature complete as well. Thank you for all you've done. To be honest, I'm not real concerned about CM9. In a couple months, I will probably be upgrading to a Note or Galaxy SIII anyway. At least I hope the SIII is released and all its rumored to be by then.
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
Panasonic Eluga Power would be my choice, but not soon :)

[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
Kernel mess

To clarify a bit:

I plan to release 4 kernels as 0.74 will pass QA:

1. Lite (default) - small kernel, enough for average end-user.

2. Full - all features (add-on).

3. Mugen Lite (for extended Mugen batteries).

4. Full Mugen.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Appus:
Ver 1.0

Please make the next update as version 1.0 :)

I think the slowest in getting to version 1.0 was vlc player.

It is perfect ROM and then why dont we call it as 1.0 atleast :)

Thanks
[Streak 5 Android Development] Dude_Virus:
Using hpa's wifi driver from dsc config and there is quite a battery drain...as per the voltage app in 6 hrs the battery reached 83% ... now this was with the first 0.74 let me install the second one and then check.... had to moveto hpa's wifi driver option as for some reason after never having wifi issues , now i am getting those and they are intermittent which is annoying.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Dude_Virus:
How about HTC OneX.....
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
Hey, that's 8mm shorter :)
[Streak 5 Android Development] Dude_Virus:
Yeah thats a bummer but the specs are good.... i will check out the panasonic....
[Streak 5 Android Development] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Some brief thoughts regarding the USSD Utility:

1. Add a brief note on the screen regarding hitting enter on the keyboard to send. I tried it yesterday and actually looked for a "send" button before realizing that you had to hit enter to send.

2. Make it usable as a widget, similar to the Google search bar for those people who need to have the utility readily available for refills or the like.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Dude_Virus:
running 0.74 since the past 7 hrs and happy with the performance , only issue that I have noticed is that in set cpu when i select the maximum frequency as 1267 it automatically goes down to 1075 after sometime. Twice I have noticed it and made it to 1267 but after sometime if I check it is back at 1075 even when the slider is far to the right. Is the max frequency 1075 in 0.74, but if that is the case it should not show the max limit to be 1267.
[Streak 5 Android Development] jtaylor113:
Cannot swap keyboard

I just installed 0.73, did a factory reset, wiped everything.

I installed my favorite keyboard - SwipeIt.

I cannot change the keyboard. I am stuck with default one.

I see that others have had this problem, but saw no solutions.

Anyone have a solution to this?
[Streak 5 Android Development] cdzo72:
Did you go into Language and Input settings and enable it after you installed it?
[Streak 5 Android Development] jtaylor113:
Yes. It won't take. I just stays using the 'Dell Keyboard'.
[Streak 5 Android Development] cdzo72:
All I can say is uninstall and reinstall.a.few.times. Reboot after each phase
[Streak 5 Android Development] asianftw:
I have this problem and have to start installing from fresh. Kind of annoying. But it's something I can live with
[Streak 5 Android Development] Dude_Virus:
Another issue which i have come across on 0.74 is the power button functionality... i dont know if neone else who has flashed the 0.74 is facing this issue but i am. When the streak is in sleep for a long time ( so far the issue occurred with the streak being in sleep for 15 min ) pressing the power button once doesnt wake the device, i have to press it multiple times... this issue was not on the 0.73 as the power button was extremely responsive.
[Streak 5 Android Development] asianftw:
I had this problem with 0.73+min1/3, but nothing short of pressing it a few times cant fix
[Streak 5 Android Development] jtaylor113:
Thanks! After I wiped the cache and did another factory reset, my keyboard started working fine.
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
That's actually indended behaviour of conservative CPU scaler. It selects needed frequency for current task.

Well, i've never experienced this one. Just yesterday installed Hacker's kbd - no probs in switching back and forth.

I think it's mostly related to failing power button.

Blinking leds mod

Here's a test full watchmania "Blinking leds mod"

http://n0p.8bit.fm/streak/DSC_watch_mania.zip

--

Not itself configurable, needs Led notification ON in DSConfig.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Dude_Virus:
I would not agree, i flashed the 0.73 and the mugen kernel as the powerbutton is working properly , so responsive that sometimes even when pressing lightly the shutdown menu comes up.
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
Odd, i didn't change anything in dejitter patch.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Dude_Virus:
I agree this is odd but do u remember a couple of days back i had reported that the new mugen kernel which you had built had issues with wifi going off as soon as the screen goes off, even though u had not made any wifi changes. Then you had given me a mugen minimal kernel and that wifi issue was resolved. Same kinda thing happ..i just finished the install for the 0.74-2 and i notice the screen not turning on in 1 go...let it go in sleep and then i will revert as to how frequent this issue is...as of i had to press it like 4 to 5 times to get he phone to turn on.
[Streak 5 Android Development] _2bad4u_:
I have the exact same problem with 0.74-2 sometimes not all the time is not responding to the power buton when the screen is of. i have to press a couple of times so i can wakes up.
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
OK guys, i'll try to work on it, though i'm unsure of the real cause of the problem.

--

Let's give a test to this kernel:

http://n0p.8bit.fm/streak/DSC_Phoenix_Min5.zip

Notes:

Advanced PM emulation disabled.

Idle CPU PM disable.

Speedup resume disabled (may wake a little bit slower).
[Streak 5 Android Development] _2bad4u_:
OK il give it a try, thank you very much, you din't have to do it right away.
[Streak 5 Android Development] zAm1987:
I'm still on 0.73 (haven't flashed any of the new test kernels) and a few days ago my power button started to act weird, too.

So I think, it's not related especially to 0.74...
[Streak 5 Android Development] menting:
the power button starting to break down is the exact reason that I'm on CM7 even though I like DSC+0.73 kernel a lot more. CM7's wake on volume button is a hardware saver.
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
You won't beleive it, but I think some kernel options won't work best for portable device.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Dude_Virus:
yeah I agree as in all the different kernels I have tried with DSC most of them have worked flawlessly and some had created some or the other issue. The 0.74 has a good functionality its only the power button which decides to not work once in a while and makes me press it 4 to 5 times to start the phone.
[Streak 5 Android Development] _2bad4u_:
We can alway go back to froyo to se if the problem persist.
[Streak 5 Android Development] asianftw:
Too bad the battery wouldn't last more than 1.5 hr with screen on
[Streak 5 Android Development] menting:
let me try it right now. I'll report back how much my battery dropped in 30 min.

edit: dropped 5% (from 77% to 72%) in 30 min with screen set to auto-brightness.

wifi was off during this time, and using the original battery.
[Streak 5 Android Development] asianftw:
I also have 3G running (background data enabled) for instant msg apps that use push.

With Dsc I can have screen on time/awake time to approximate 3-5hrs

But with CM7 I HAVE 2 hrs Max with the same settings. And I love every aspect about CM7 TOO

either way I don't wanna hijack the thread, just saying DSC.7 has some kinks but stablility and battery life are what keeping me around

Thanks to the nop and other devs

Try file manager it is a good app. Sergei how is the battery life at your end. For me using the hpa wifi driver the battery ife has reduced to half of what i used to get. No wifi issues though.
[Streak 5 Android Development] lordmorphous:
That's because hpa's wifi driver prevents the phone from going to sleep. I had better battery life with Sergei's driver and wifi fixer, although not much better.
[Streak 5 Android Development] menting:
I'm on CM7, and my battery stats show that my phone sleeps.

i use advanced wifi lock though https://play.google.com/store/apps/...DEsIm9wb3RlY2guYWR2YW5jZWR3aWZpbG9ja2ZyZWUiXQ..

so maybe that is letting my phone sleep?
[Streak 5 Android Development] lordmorphous:
I don't think your phone is actually going into deep sleep. Especially if you are using that app. Here is a line straight from the description of that app in the Google Play Store:

Please Note: This app uses a wake-lock to prevent the phone from sleeping, leaving the phone in a wake-state for too long will use excessive battery power.
[Streak 5 Android Development] menting:
is there any way to check to see if it's going into deep sleep or not? the only "sleep" info I can get is from the battery usage info, and that shows the phone going to sleep

hello n0p, been away for a while noting good changes, hope all is for the best ;)

i am currently on v0.51b and am about to download/update to v0.53b •06.11.2011 has WiFi watchdog been removed ? changelogs in first page go from v0.53b where internal wifi watchdog was enforced into rom directly to the v0.55b. i would like to update with v.0.53b only if wifi watchdog has been removed .

ty
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
dsteinberg, i think you can give a try to 0.55b. If it somehow don't satisfy you, i'll provide older (245MHz lowest) kernel as update.

Or you can simply replace boot.img in 0.55b with one, supplied with 0.53b :)

It's as simple as replacing file in archive.
