has somebody tried to apply the zepplinrox patch on lc's latest build? (does it even work on ics?)
[Desire HD Android Development] SAPPH1RE:
Just use killersloth script, works on mine
[Desire HD Android Development] somstall:
hey mate thanks for the reply! To be honest I have never heard of that script before? Could you tell me what the benefits are of that script in comparison with zeppelins script?

thanks in advance!
[Desire HD Android Development] bcd420:
Browser settings,debugging,show Java console. Something along those lines not currently running ics, so I can't check the exact setting.

Its because it doesnt do anything. Dianne Hackborn just busted this whole battery calibration myth on Google+

https://plus.google.com/105051985738280261832/posts

I used to be a believer too :(

How do I increase my battery life now ??? :p

EDIT : To make this post more related to ICS, you'll have to check what apps are eating into your battery. I found my battery life has decreased suddenly too, and Wifi is showing up as the biggest eater. Dont know if thats normal, because I have started using Wifi at work only recently. So thats Wifi On almost 16-17 hrs a day now.

I'm also suspecting that HaxSync is draining mine a lot, but I just cant get myself to uninstall it because I'll lose all my high quality contact photos, and then I have to re-do all my joining contacts nonsense because it doesnt really do it correctly if I increase the "fuziness" factor in it.

Anyway, living with the 14-16 hours for now.

I see here that some nice progress is being made on ICS filed..

I got back from trip yesterday night... now of to work and I hope I'll finish my source today if I don't get disturbed any more... but explain that to my wife and a kid :)

Button backlight
[Desire HD Android Development] :
i tried your firmware and its quite well.

but unfortunately im facing problems playing m4v files and most games.

trial xtreme 2 my favorite game doesnt start like the free glu mobile games.

there are many other games with this problem.
[Desire HD Android Development] Bornin:
If your problem is they switch off every now and then just check or uncheck autobrightness and it comes back again (temporarely)

It's just one of those smaller bugs
[Desire HD Android Development] M..N:
Afaik the button backlight responds to the ambient light sensor. If it is dark the buttons will light up else it doesn't.
[Desire HD Android Development] existz:
This has been fixed recently.., (atleast for issues with games like trial x2),, seems this commit caused some issues,(http://r.cyanogenmod.com/#change,11448) as you can see in the comments trial x2 was specifically listed as a known game that gets broken., reverting that commits solves the issue

this commit also needs reverted (http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#change,11449) or it will break booting since it was dependent on the other one. But should be fixed in next update (depending on which build you use...LCs, Twisteds, BeatMod or mine)
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
Considering the "discussion" blew up my email, I know I fixed it. Lol. Still waiting for a working camera build to release anything new, though. This thing hates the way it was originally configured.

Even though deleting the batterystats file does nothing, you can still "calibrate" your battery: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=6988794&postcount=1

This isn't needed after every flash though, but maybe a couple times a year.
[Desire HD Android Development] tomkulaga:
Thats battery conditioning :)
[Desire HD Android Development] cstayton:
"Calibrating" the battery is not a new thing and in no way specific to android or even smartphones for that matter. older NiCad batteries had "memory" issues which when not completely discharged prior to charging could cause the battery to "Forget" where a full charge was so to speak. Allthough LiOn batteries do not have this issue you can improve the lifespan by following manufacturers suggestions on charging the battery, in most cases it is recomended that at least once a month you fully discharge the battery and then recharge it, LiOn batteries have roughly a 1000 recharge cycle lifespan and the recharge lifespan is calculated not by the number of times you plug it in and charge it but the number of complete discharges and recharges. So in short "Calibrating" your battery in this fashion is a manufacturer suggested operation.

The batterystats.bin is a record of use, charge and discharge by the system which in turn uses this information to tune the power saving features acording to your individual use, deleting this file during calibration can and does have a significant impact on the battery performance.

So, in short calibrate your battery it seriously does make a difference.

Almost! Twisted and lord is working together, not so much mdeejay and shaky

[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
It's getting there. I couldn't really tell a professor that the surprise rewrite we had to do wouldn't work with my plan to fix up the Android camera, so I had to get that out of the way first.

Their help is that they unlock the bootloader so you can install custom ROMs plus provide the kernel source and USB drivers. HTC makes average hardware that uses a lot of proprietary stuff from Qualcomm, so chances are they have developers that know only a little more than we do about how it all works and working with it. Places like that don't have 100 developers who know 100 things, they have 100 developers who know one thing of 100, so its not like one of them could come along and explain it all because he wanted to help AOSP.

Well, people like Kali-, toastcfh, and all those other CM "elite" members won't touch it because the version from CAF requires too much work to function for anything but msm8x60, and they are not in the business of starting things they don't have most of the information for already. It's not meant to be an insult, its been proven that if CAF isn't already 90% done, they will wait. If CAF didn't write it, and it is written to "bypass", "override", or "include prebuilt" anything (Edit: refers to entire libs, not just a function of a header variable), they will use it for their personal versions, but it will not become a release of any sort.

Aeroevan, Team Evervolv, and I are all looking at the different options. Right now the CAF version is too incomplete to get it working because the headers needed to use it don't exist anywhere publicly. Writing a header is almost impossible without any information about it. There are a few other options, but they are meant for specific devices, and coded that way. We are currently working on finding a way around that, and sharing ideas back and forth until something finally works.

I am working on Camera with a lot of non-DHD developers. mdeejay was doing a lot of display and kernel fixes and he shares them when their done and he may be working on other things, too. LC was moving his GitHub and doing a lot of kernel updates, and I have no idea what shaky has been doing. Right now everyone is off on their own, but thats honestly whats best right now.

Thanks for the update

Thanks for the update You guys are doing a great job It's nice to know whats going on but I'm sure all the questions can drive you nutz thanks again for the update
[Desire HD Android Development] trh1341:
I was thinking...for a temp fix could we take the camera files from cm7 to get camera to work and get people to stop asking about it until the new good camera gets fixed. You may have tried that already..so if you have please don't get mad lol :) and I know twisted just wants to move straight to new camera but by doing this there should be less complaints about camera :)

Edit: if we did try to use old camera files would it cause problems
[Desire HD Android Development] inertiax3:
..testing our Linux server just for fun (since I don't have the knowledge yet to do any other ICS build than full-userdebug ;) .. build time approx. 20 min.. can't wait until a fully buildable and working source (for ace) will be out, good luck and thanx to all active Devs

PS: ..can build test builds if someone provides the necessary files.. as mentioned previously..
[Desire HD Android Development] vicedens2002:
What value you gave for j ? what is your ubuntu version ?

I gave 16 and at 32 it was unstable. specs

i5 2500k stock

2x4 gb ddr3

I was seeing 100% through out the build(ram was nearly 4.5gb maximum, average 3gb) for a generic one and it took nearly one hour to build it.

Nice way to test a overclocked build :D
[Desire HD Android Development] Shelnutt2:
You might need to edit the Android.mk of libaudiohardware and change liba2d to audio.a2dp.default . It seems the name of the a2d lib has changed. You could also just change the a2d make file back to liba2d, but I don't know if anything else is looking for audio.a2dp.default.

You should do -j5, the optimal # is cores+1.
[Desire HD Android Development] vicedens2002:
really ? I did my builds with j16 and was stable :)
[Desire HD Android Development] Doktaphex:
According to source.android.com -jN should be as such.

Build everything with make. GNU make can handle parallel tasks with a -jN argument, and it's common to use a number of tasks N that's between 1 and 2 times the number of hardware threads on the computer being used for the build. E.g. on a dual-E5520 machine (2 CPUs, 4 cores per CPU, 2 threads per core), the fastest builds are made with commands between make -j16 and make -j32.

So for me on my i7 2600k it would be 1 CPU * 4 cores * 2 threads per core = -j8

Damn, I read it wrong the first time. Maybe all my errors were because I was building with too high a number for -jN. Although, I can't even compile for tuna or maguro now. Also my many edits seem to broken my repo. Looks like I'll be deleting everything and re-downloading overnight.
[Desire HD Android Development] wildchild048:
Could one of you fine devs provide me with a build to play with?The only reason i ask is because i am not set up to build myself,iam using a dual boot aspire notebook.windows/ubuntu thanks
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
Won't cause errors, but part way through it will just stop and sit for a while. Was using 2x what I was supposed to for a few days.
[Desire HD Android Development] JamesBarnes:
Im trying to set a build going on my server, but there are some config errors, what file needs editing to set HOST_OS? cant see anything in the obvious places
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
I honestly never set that now that I think of it, but it should be in your device make file I believe. Least it always prints out with that info.
[Desire HD Android Development] JamesBarnes:
Yeah its usually determined by a shell script, but it doesn't know what to do when the OS identifies its self as Solaris.

I'll keep poking
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
Out of curiosity, what audio do you guys use? Is it the base, 8, or 52? I asked in inc and they use base. I know I use 52. Trying to see what is useful and what is going to be different.
[Desire HD Android Development] master.peterm:
any chance for a G2/DZ version pretty please
[Desire HD Android Development] protomanez:
Please keep requests out of development threads, some people would like to keep to development chatting. That being said, ICS will come to most devices in good time.
[Desire HD Android Development] synergye:
I seem to remember a few people posting saying they would help by searching for info. Well I have HWaccel working, audio working, and TS calibrated through kernel for my Atmel with a very mixed system of source and a nexus source build. But I need the damn Pointer gone!

If anyone has info on removing this damn pointer, it would be much appreciated, then there will be a build for people to play with!

He said atmel - atmel atmel ATMEL lol inspire>desire anyways I thought it has been established that the idc file doesn't fix it.
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
On the sdk it wouldn't. What we need to do is compare the framework inputmanager from gingerbread to the one from ICS and get it to be more like that.

If you really think this is a thread where the developers send out private invitations to test when a build emerges, you have a lot of reading to do.
[Desire HD Android Development] synergye:
Well the screen's calibrated now for me. Just can't seem to get rid of the pointer. Other than that the TS works.
[Desire HD Android Development] gaeilgeganeagla:
yeah i think the old camera files dont work because if i remember correctly its not the files themselves as such its more of the kernel files which control the camera files or something like that
[Desire HD Android Development] trh1341:
I know that but if we use everything that the old camera used...including what's in the kernel...wouldnt that work :)
[Desire HD Android Development] Andy:
AFAIK the old kernel doesn't work with ICS.

New kernel = no camera

Old kernel = no ICS
[Desire HD Android Development] M..N:
Nope the old kernel works with ics we are using the .35 base and not 3.0 kernel atm. Problem with camera is that a lot changed with ics on how camera is handled. To my knowledge rampv78 modified the source to look for the old camera files in order to get it to work.
[Desire HD Android Development] trh1341:
Is there a special reason we can't do that...sorry my last question :)
[Desire HD Android Development] M..N:
Twisted is trying. rampv78 has uploaded his source and he basically modified the HAL module to use the gb libcamera.so. so your free to take a look at it.
[Desire HD Android Development] synergye:
Yes. Currently the HAL module won't load still. In Twisted's source I believe you can switch between which style of camera fix you want to attempt to use. rampv's, or zivan's.
[Desire HD Android Development] trh1341:

camera wasnt fix now for two months because of certain reasons, and you think youll find a temp fix with that kind of idea? nothing against you
[Desire HD Android Development] trh1341:
I didn't think it was tried because lord and twisted want to move forward...I just want to know if they have tried before I waste time on something that has been tried before
[Desire HD Android Development] Sebianoti:
Hmm my PPTP VPN doesn't seem to work with this rom?
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
I have three builds going. One is the CAF camera files, which are missing headers that aren't available, one uses zivan's method of building a wrapper for the libcamera that replaces libcamera, and one is rapmv's method of building a GB support Hal to use the old libs.

[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
Wouldn't have uploaded if I did. Go for it.
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
Where we stand is that camera now builds, it connects, but it fails on one of the configurations. Not sure if it is the prebuilt lib that is being used or the code itself. Either way it is close.

Compiling builds with the new camera stuff but the GB headers to see if that makes a difference. Should be up in a couple hours if all goes well. Don't know if it will change anything, but at least then well know exactly what needs editing. It would already work, but the issue seems to be the 5MP camera a lot of the original code was meant for not matching the 8 these devices have.
[Desire HD Android Development] n9ntje:
5mp is perfectly fine for me if camera is working! Great job!
[Desire HD Android Development] Xtiro:
I don't think that's what Twisted meant.
