I tried 0.61b as my firsy DSC rom and have never had timedrift or installed clocksync??

BTW any idea why certain games would have garbled audio (fifa 12 and dead space)

Both were ok upon fresh rom install.

I have minimal apps installed.

This is the second time now both on dsc?

I also have a higher power battery (not mugen) so will report back tomorrow if it stops at 1% still..
[Streak 5 Android Development] jazzdude555:
nope, none at all, which is where I have been checking on each of my attempts.

I have just tried it on a third laptop, windows 7 clean install and that doesnt see it either, not in Device Manager
[Streak 5 Android Development] roy8846:
Ok update on audio issue for games...

It appears to be kernal related..

Dead space tested on 0.60b fresh install : ok

update to 0.61b wipe dalvik : ok

Update to 0.62b wipe dalvik : bad audio.

No other apps installed at all.

Looks like I will be sticking to 0.61b :(
[Streak 5 Android Development] btvbtv:
As a last resort option, you might be willing to dig into diagnistic menu as described at hxxp://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/archive/t-1113827.html

Just a copy for your convenience:

Engineer mode:

Power off device, press and hold camera + power on.

Now u should see the usual fastboot and under it a nice keyboard.

Now on that nice keypad type :

*#301#

or

*#7589 (engineering mode)

or

*#777# (hard reset!!!)

or

*#9589 (freeze???)

or

*#9596 (uart diag mode)

*#9412 (Uart console)

*#8805 ...

Have fun and do NOT kill your devices :)
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
Jazz, seems like you somehow managed to burn usb or the cable usb connectors. To be sure - get a cable from a friend, connect it.

Roy, 0.61 is the last one to use stock hacked kernel. We need to find that exact kernel option that breaks game, and if you don't mind, i'd like to have one, just for tests, I promice.

http://uploading.com/files/3m61e24d/FIFA_12_dj.apk/

It is free for xperia play users , this version allows adreno as well (still not a paid app!!)

data is 1.6gb roughly!!

It is laggy on our streaks but suffers the same audio problem as dead space (not sure about others , I think Battlefield BC2 is also affected)

It is the kernel as I tested it on power rom lite with gkernal > bad audio , power rom lite with SD kernel > ok!
[Streak 5 Android Development] greg9100:
It looks like they are modifying the ds2784 battery driver, one of the battery drivers within that kernel source-

It's possible to enable support for a few batteries within our source, or hack them even

< > Generic PDA/phone power driver < > APM emulation for class batteries < > Test power driver < > DS2760 battery driver (HP iPAQ & others) < > DS2782/DS2786 standalone gas-gauge < > BQ27x00 battery driver < > Maxim MAX17040 Fuel Gauge <*> MSM battery < > smb137b charger <*> Fake MSM battery [*] QSD battery

Our kernel initially had support of QSD battery driver,

the three I posted eariler within this thread actualy have support for QSD and MSM batteries;

Also getting the same behaviors with SLUB version BFS

SLAB version BFS still going ok, no video error so far; about 16 hours
[Streak 5 Android Development] jorry92:
hey guys loving the rom you got here, i do have some issues with it forcing me to go back to my latest SD nandroid backup.

i upgraded from the latest streakdroid. all settings/programs where restored correctly except for some minor things (widgets etc)

I have tried a reset but keep getting massive errors that way, maybe im doing something wrong (whipe data in recovery> fix permissions?).

but anyway these issues are keeping me from using it daily for now;

-maps drain (minor)

-copilot live keeps freezing/lagging every x keypresses,

tried

-reinstalling

-keeping cpu maxed with perfomance gouvernor both with oc (1153ish?) and without.

-muting sound in copilot and in android system

-works fine in SD2.4.4

(this combined with maps drain leaves me with no gps, going to install igo8 soon)

-wifi has slightly less range/bandwith(just not enough in my situation now!)

-wifi sleep issues

-cant use "ondemand" gouvenor with 128/1153, setting it in setcpu keeps reverting to conservative when i leave setcpu.

tried

-245/1153

workaround:

1153 performance profile in setcpu when screen on.

128-245 conservative profile in setcpu when screen off

optional conservative 128-998 when battery above X(never had any overheating issues with the dell streak, but i like to have it for a bit ensurance, and it was an issue on the motorola milestone @1.2ghz :D)

any fixes/pointers would be very welcome!

tips/feature requests

-add more cpu gouvenors (im a noob but could you copy paste from SD2.4.4?)

-(easy) fixed overclocking from recovery with custom voltage.

-intergrated blinking notification LEDs

-reboot(to recovery) CM style in power menu

ps sorry for my bad english and this aint a rant its just some feedback;

you guys rock!
[Streak 5 Android Development] jazzdude555:
Finally managed it.

I went away for a couple of hours, came back, plugged it in and it worked.

Trying to flash the 0.62b ROM, Streakmod is saying installation aborted. Should I have installed another version first or could my downloaded version be corrupted?

I take it all the deleting of davlick caches etc are done after the flash but before the reboot.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Dude_Virus:
The way the battery is draining and reporting i dont think the new kernel has made any change. 5 and a half hours and its reporting that the battery is at 64 %. Now if i remove the battery and put it back in the charge will be 90+ as it normally happens. Can that same kinda coding or patching be done here as that guy has done in that thread.

After installing the kernel i went ahead and then charged the battery completely and then booted to streakmod recovery and wiped the battery stats and then started using the phone. Hoping the new kernel helps.
[Streak 5 Android Development] smnc:
Jazzdude555

.62 is an update.

You need to download and flash the full .60 first. Really read the original post in this thread for details.

Sent like a Streak of Light from Spidey, my Dell Streak 5
[Streak 5 Android Development] btvbtv:
Have you erased battery stats and done full discharge?
[Streak 5 Android Development] jazzdude555:
sorted corrupt file it seems.
[Streak 5 Android Development] greg9100:
Thanks for the feedback-

We could definitely modify the code;

But I am hoping its just a matter of adding the right driver-

When I look at QSD battery code, I claim not to see defined max for the battery, or limitations, at least compared with the shared thread

But they are different drivers

I have read streak users with the issue on froyo, where the issue is present there-

please keep me posted;
[Streak 5 Android Development] Dude_Virus:
sure i will keep you posted although i dont think this kernel has cause any changes as the battery is still reporting a drain as it used to earlier for the initial phase... It used to drop and report like a stock battery and same it is doing now. yes this issue came up with froyo as I have tested this battery with android 1.6 and it reported properly with the battery reaching 1% after 45 hours and the phone then switching off. While i was researching this issue there are many more users who upgraded from 1.6 and started facing the same issue with the extended battery. The streak stopped reporting anything above 1500 mah.

should i try the other two kernels the BFS SLAB and SLUB...?
[Streak 5 Android Development] greg9100:
Dude_Virus-

I want to give you a specific test kernel.

This one has all battery drivers enabled;

link here:http://db.tt/pWe39uVe

Please give it a test
[Streak 5 Android Development] Dude_Virus:
Downloading now .... should i do the usual of wiping the dalvik cache + cache partition and fixing permission ... i did that for the previous kernel.
[Streak 5 Android Development] greg9100:
Yes that would be a best practice;
[Streak 5 Android Development] Dude_Virus:
OK kernel installed , wiped cache and dalvik + fixed permissions.. did not wipe battery stats as i am at work and i dont have the cable to charge the streak. will do tht once i reach home... however I have reset the battery... lets see for now phone is still booting up.
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
Ok, we should check and fix reported degradation on DSC-Team kernel.

USB speed.

Sound issues.

Right now have no idea why, let's check changed config options right from the start.

--

Battery. I'll try tomorrow to replace or hack battery driver as it was in dell android kernel for 1.6. I think kernel is still on dell website.

--

Governors. I keep my point that all that ass and x are just a variations of ondemand and conservative with different parameters.

All other issues should be just the same between all gb flavours around, as all based on Olleh 405/406 framework.

--

So far BFS (SLAB) kernel gives absolutely unbelievable battery usage :)

Looks a bit laggy in 3d, but for business usage it's the one. Didn't connect usb today, but so far no vidmem issue.

Greg, my sincere congratulations!
[Streak 5 Android Development] Dude_Virus:
_n0p_ please also look into the wifi signal strength reducing ...
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
Dude_Virus, let's run a simple test. Flash 351 BB, disregard flashing leds. How's the signal in this case?
[Streak 5 Android Development] Dude_Virus:
my streak came with a stock 355 BB and wifi signals were good and then i flashed 360 and the wifi was not an issue as the rom was still stock. i used to get 3 bars into the corner where my bed is.

i think its something to do with the kernel as cause until yest evening i was on the kernel that is installed by default in 0.62b and the wifi signals were 2 bars in that same corner.. When i flashed the CFS kernel for the battery testing which greg posted the wifi signals dropped to 1.

Now i have installed another kernel which greg posted which has all battery drivers enabled but as i am at work i am not able to check wifi.

Do u still want me to test 351 BB
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
If I understand correctly, there's a signal strength degradation from 0.62b kernel to latest test one from Greg, am I right?
[Streak 5 Android Development] Dude_Virus:
yes i found the degradation from the original 0.62b kernel to the one i installed yesterday CFS SLAB
[Streak 5 Android Development] greg9100:
That is bizarre behavior for the wifi function; I have not changed other settings in the kernel-

DSCTeam

Regarding the oldest dell source 2.6.29 from the open source website, it does have different battery drivers within:

<> Generic PDA/phone power driver

<> WM8350 PMU support

<> DS2760 battery driver (HP iPAQ & others)

<> BQ27200 battery driver

<> DA9030 battery driver

<> NXP PCF50633 MBC

For comparison with our source DSC2.6.35.14:

[ ] Power supply debug

<> Generic PDA/phone power driver

<> APM emulation for class batteries

<> Test power driver

<> DS2760 battery driver (HP iPAQ & others)

<> DS2782/DS2786 standalone gas-gauge

<> BQ27x00 battery driver

<> Maxim MAX17040 Fuel Gauge

<> MSM battery

<> smb137b charger

<> Fake MSM battery

[ ] QSD battery
[Streak 5 Android Development] Dude_Virus:
what i will do is reach home and then flash a stock dell 360 that i have and then check the signal strength and update. then on the stock rom i will flash the 406 BB although i dont think that will cause any issues because on the stock 360 i had flashed the 405 BB and wifi was fine.
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
Dude_Virus, if possible, measure signal with Wifi analyzer to get clear results.

--

Greg, I too think that's not the case, but it won't hurt to check
[Streak 5 Android Development] Dude_Virus:
Sure will do that.... for now i am still testing the battery tesg kernel that greg had asked me to test.. ok in this kernel the wifi signals are the same as thr CFS SLAB.... will let u know regarding the battery...
[Streak 5 Android Development] Dude_Virus:
Ok experienced a time change on boot....it was way off almost by 3+ hours and then got back to normal also faced one wierd issue...was not able to turn the screen off when connected the charger it seems tht the power button wasnt working at all as even holding it down didnt give me the power off menu....had to reset the battery and then checked by connecting the charger and its fine...
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
Dude_Virus, one more request - when you back to 3xx fw, do either in terminal emu, or in adb shell console: (sorry if you have already did that, cannot find in the thread)

logcat | grep batt

And post first lines of output. Current kernel would load the fake msm battery driver, lets check it.

Thank you.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Dude_Virus:
No i havent done that....well let me do that for this current kernel and then once i revert to the stock i will do it for the stock too
[Streak 5 Android Development] Dude_Virus:
Ok this is wierd....i had battery monitor pro installed to check the voltage of the battery so when i typed the command logcat | grep batt it gave me all the info abt battery monitor pro refresh time etc...so i uninstalled battery monitor pro and now the same command logcat | grep batt doesnt work. Is the syntax correct
[Streak 5 Android Development] Dude_Virus:
sh-4.1$ export PATH=/data/local/bin:$PATH

sh-4.1$ logcat | grep batt

Unable to open log device '/dev/log/main': Permission denied

sh-4.1$ su

sh-4.1# logcat | grep batt

This just happens ...after typing the command the cursor just sits on the next line doing nothing.....however if i just type logcat a lot of info is displayed and keeps on coming
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
Clear that your system doesn't load msm battery driver at all.

Thank you.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Dude_Virus:
Now that sounds like a bad thing....lol..

well how can we check as to which driver loads for the battery... the other post where the guy changed the coding for the kernel to get his extended battery detected he said tht loading all the drivers wont help the driver which loads wud need to be coded in order to accept and detect the new mah values for the battery as for his htc the limit set by htc was 1400 mah as per the stock battery and he is using a 2400 mah battery

I know this is off the topic regarding the development you guys do, still you are trying to help and i really appreciate.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Dude_Virus:
This is what the guy has mentioned regarding his patchcode.

' Simply put, it bypasses an IF block in the kernel source which checks whether it is an officially supported battery. If it isnt, then it toggles an indicator called htc_batt_info.rep.batt_id to UNKNOWN. Additional functions then disable charging, and flash warning lights.'

Now in my case the charging doesnt get disabled all the time but the reporting goes for a toss. So as per the same issue dell also has put some block which only makes it detect and report the official battery.

I called up dell and the tech says tht no you cant use extended battery as they dont support it and as per the setting it wont detect it..
[Streak 5 Android Development] Dude_Virus:
Hi Greg

As of now the battery is still reporting as if its a stock cause when i do a battery pull it increases the charge level..however i am putting it to charge completely and then will clear thw battery stats from recovery and then test
[Streak 5 Android Development] dsteinberg:
this morning found this mail from mugen, in reply to my query about the extended battery into the streak and the kernel string (if any):

Dear david,

Thank you for your email!

We are fixing on the battery display problem at the moment!

I think it would be fix on early next year!

Please contact me if you need any additional info.

Best Regards,

Jan

:confused::confused::confused:
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
dsteinberg, oh my :)

I've never heard of remote hardware fixing :)

I currently see no reject code in MSM battery.

Dude_Virus, please, if possible, switch to this kernel:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=20136941&postcount=1006

and send me the full

adb logcat -d

output.

Thank you.
[Streak 5 Android Development] btvbtv:
To me, that sounds either like:

1. Dell is going to release official GB ROM early next year

or

2. The best way to say no is to postpone the issue
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
Quick report.

kernel works ONLY with qsd_battery.

Board code cannot interact with msm battery driver.

msm battery support WAS in board code but hacked out by "Jagan".

qsd_battery fully relies on i2c bus interaction, and for me this code is hardly understandable.

Std battery works in Range 4V-3.42V

MSM battery works in Range 4,2V-3.42V

David......Yeah that email from Mugen is very strange as this is the last email i got from the technical dept...Jan is from the customer service who had passed my case to Dimitry and before this Dimitry told me that as your on a stock froyo it wont get detected so if your wiling to go on a custom rom or kernel then it will do the trick and when i told him that I have done that and its still an issue I get this reply

Dear Kartik,

Thank you for your email!

There is no way to make Dell Streak show correct charge indication when you're using extended battery. The best way to check charge level is to use our application and check voltage info.

The battery is fully discharged when it's 3200mV Full charged when it's 4200mV

Check our app here: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.MugenPower. MugenPowerBatteries

Please contact me if you need any additional info.

Best Regards, Dmitry

And there app doesnt work for anyone...its just a modified version of the battery calibration app.

Also the phone shuts off at 3500 mv so his saying 3200mV is something i dont get
[Streak 5 Android Development] Dude_Virus:
_n0p_

Downloaded the kernel ....... will install in a moment and start the test....luckily the battery has been charged to a full 100%
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
Dude_Virus, there's no need.

I'm sure that qsd driver is loaded.

Dead Space refuses to run - not autorized to run on your device.
[Streak 5 Android Development] roy8846:

[Streak 5 Android Development] Dude_Virus:
Ooops i already flashed it.....
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
Won't do anything worse, that's for sure.

--

Roy, i see teh cracking sound issue now. Thank you.

@Team.

Looking at RPC-AMSS code. It actually scares me that we have OS under OS.

RTC, battery and many more recides in AMSS, and simply interfaced by kernel.
[Streak 5 Android Development] dsteinberg:
how incoherent, un professional and rude from mugen to supply different answers of the same question...and even the answers are so stupid.... if i judge from their customer service i now doubt on the quality of mugen batteries
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
From the qsd battery code:

if(qb_data.amss_batt_low)

{

MSG2("## bat_low: vol: %d, ma: %d, fcc: %d, temp: %d",

gag_data[GAG_VOLT], gag_data[GAG_AI], gag_data[GAG_FCC], qb_data.bat_temp);

status_changed ++;

}

It's controlled by AMSS.

Almost everything seems to be read from battery itself.

--

Anyway, Dude_Virus, i await your log for analysis.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Dude_Virus:
The quality of the battery is good as this is my second mugen...the first was for my blackberry and the way blackberry handles battery consumption i had to charge the mugen once in 5 days and tht too on full internet usage ( egde + wifi )..it never had an issue with reporting on the blackberry...its only with dell and htc mugen has a reporting issue because of the block they have setup to detect only original batteries
[Streak 5 Android Development] Dude_Virus:
_n0p_ i know u wud find my question stupid but how to get the adb log for u.... is it something i can do via the phone or i wud need a windows pc for tht...as on my system i have installed mac osx and i dont think adb wud work on tht as somehow i got to install the streakmod using my mac but for the baseband i had to do it via the windows pc
[Streak 5 Android Development] greg9100:
When I saw this GAG data, and AMSS in the QSD code, I became confused about it,

[Streak 5 Android Development] nickshertzer:
Just a quick update on my experience with 0.62b.

I installed the 0.62b update over 0.61b. I had massive battery drain. It ate through 100% all the way to dead as a doornail in 4 hours. Wish I could help track down and pin point the culprit, but I used nandroid to get back to 0.61b and now back to the same great battery life as before (about 36 hours with moderate to heavy use).

Thank you again to the devs in this thread keeping development on our much beloved "phablet" alive!

FYI, I was hoping to fix the wifi toggle on / off bug with 0.62b.
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
Nick, did the phone turn off completely or showed 1%?

Strange, but it seems like first negative report on battery usage.

--

Anyway, I plan to restart playing with options, as sound issue is present. Thanks to Roy for reporting.

--

As reported by lordmorphous, WiFi issue has actually nothing to do with kernel options :(

The only positive - his test shows that it has nothing to do with amss either, so there's a chance to fix it.

--

@Team: I propose to do the following:

Publish 0.63b with:

hosts/flashplayer fix (revert hosts to default, delete flashplayer from system apps)

Hacked Olleh 406 kernel.

--

Roadmap for kernel:

Revert back to original config. Check sound in dead space.

Enable wifi abstraction, additional options as in Gkernels 1.3. Check sound.

Enable usb host and all available codepages for fs. Check.

Change timer to low-res. Check.

Greg, you might have the version map for gkernels, so we could follow your past roadmap, if you don't mind.

Change timer options. Check.

Raise maximum freq as a frequently requested feature.

--

Will await your suggestions on the case.
[Streak 5 Android Development] nickshertzer:
I waited until it turned itself off. :(

Not a big deal here. Wish I had more time to test it, but I have a really busy work week. Normally a huge drain is caused by a wakelock, I'm guessing something wasn't playing nice with my Exchange set up. I've seen it before where it would just hang on sync'ing a corporate calendar or contact item. I would chalk it up to my configuration as I didn't try a factory reset after upgrade.
