[Vibrant Android Development] pawitp:
The Vibrant's libaudio is a modified version of aries-common's libaudio which came from crespo, its history is in the git repository. The "new" libaudio is from aries-common which I sent to the OP who noted that 911 is working with ICS builds for testing. As for the "no documentation", just look around the source, I figured out where things came from and you should also be able to.

As for the build in the bug tracker, the point is that the fix needs to be tested first, then it is submitted to the source repository. There's no point submitting a fix that doesn't work to the repository. The patch has already been submitted (a few days ago) to aries-common. You just need to look in the right place. The reason I sent that library to the OP was because it was a publicly accessible update.zip which is easy to flash for the I9000, not because it fixes that bug. BTW, the library linked as always been public and not hidden anywhere - it's in aries-common.

We'd like to have a maintainer for the Vibrant, but we're not going to bow to you just so that you'd be one (I have no idea what happened and am not interested in finding out). Nothing is hidden and you just have to look around the related repositories. It may be hard to find due to the history of the code, but nothing is intentionally hidden. It's a community project, if we don't have a maintainer, then it's simply not supported. Someone else can also step up as a maintainer starting by submitting fixes to gerrit, like I have done and stepped up as a maintainer for the I9000.
[Vibrant Android Development] atinm:
Ok, like pawitp said - we think we have fixed the e911 and 911 issues with Vibrant now, but need a developer to take over development for the Vibrant as part of teamhacksung. It needs to be someone willing to work with us, so you can contact me or pawitp in PM if you want to be part of taking over Vibrant going forward from CM7, CM9. It does have to be someone we can work with, so there is at least one person who is disqualified but most other developers should be able to take this up perfectly fine. We'd rather not be assholes, but some diva developers bring that out in us (especially diva developers who then take it upon themselves to pontificate at and threaten members of the team) . . .

And any developer who wants to work on CM needs to be able to navigate git, and gerrit and work within the git/gerrit framework (kanging into your own repositories and never sending gerrit review requests is not teamwork and we ignore such developers as much as is possible) - we're happy to help with issues, but we do expect developers to be self motivated as the sourcecode==documentation, and things are frequently pushed that "seem to work because users told us so".
[Vibrant Android Development] codeworkx:
Life is no pony farm.

sourcecode = best documentation ever!

If a smart developer comes to us and says he wants to work with us, then we'll tell him what he has to know.

But we'll not spend weeks on it to learn him what we've learned over the last 1.5 years.

The device specific part must be enough.

A developer should be able to find and understand stuff by hisself. That's what we all have to do every day.

There's google, there's a git history, there's sourcecode.

That's enough for a real developer to get in.

Just my 2 cents.
[Vibrant Android Development] djf8:
A maintainer that has to learn/find a couple things here and there is better than no maintainer at all.

I hope you guys can see eye to eye, Genesis sounds like a pretty intelligent guy that could help the vibrant community out a lot.

I don't mean any offense to anyone on the CM team you guys are amazing and brought us gingerbread when Samsung/Tmobile were content to abandon us on froyo.
[Vibrant Android Development] RoxAbout:
Did I see something about a GPS fix also? Along with the e911/911 fix? I have one of the Vibrants that can't see birds and the few times it has it tells me I'm miles away! I hope the CM team also grabbed that info too!

Thank you Genesis3 & Renardk764! That's the kind of dedication that makes "Team(s) Work" I sure hope that your knowledge will continue to find spots in the Vibrants future! Again Thank You Very Much!

[Vibrant Android Development] Dougfresh:
I called 911 a few days ago running Slim 4.3 and everything seemed OK. Guy on the other line just asked my phone # and address.
[Vibrant Android Development] jrongi1:
I also made a test call and they said all was as it should be.

My reason for bumping was to get a chance to reread and make sure I am not missing anything or doing something stupid before I try to get CM to update our repo so we can get official support/builds.

You mean me?
[Vibrant Android Development] jrongi1:
What ever the right way to get it done. I thank you for all the help/work you have put in but I would not presume that you are expected to do it because I say.

Sent from my Nexus 4
[Vibrant Android Development] FaultException:
You can put up changes on r.cyanogenmod.org and I can review them and merge to vibrantmtd device tree. But back on topic, I've said it before and I'll say it again: one successful 911 call isn't indicative of 911 being 100% functional.

The problems caused by mismatched GPS libraries were *intermittent* issues, meaning it did work sometimes, but failed in some circumstances. The way I finally nailed it down was I found someone who could reliably reproduce the crash. Restoring the original GPS blobs (maybe just the original libgps run through the shim) solved his issue.
[Vibrant Android Development] FaultException:
With that said I admit I have been slow at updating. Frankly I'm lazy, like to play SWTOR and building takes a while.

Going forward I'll try to update faster.
[Vibrant Android Development] jrongi1:
I agree that one test is not enough. That's why I have not pushed the point. But as for miss match gps files the only real gps related file to change is the libclientgps.so or whatever it is called and that is from something before froyo release.

The files are @ my github if you wish to see what I did. After I finish the research I plan to go forward with trying to get things merged.

Sent from my Nexus 4
[Vibrant Android Development] FaultException:
You're gonna go to CM and try to get it merged regardless of the maintainer then? :crying:

I need to see why the ROM crashes when booting with the original libs. libclientgps.so is one of the files I changed out when I made the original gps changes.
[Vibrant Android Development] jrongi1:
I have no intention to try to go around you. As the Vibrant maintainer you are the 1st line and I completely respect that and hope to work with you. When I say get CM to update the repo I always hope that you will be the only one I need to contact.

Now I hope that I have not offended you and if I have please except my sincere apology.

If that is cleared up what is the best way to go forward? That we can get this settled.

Sent from my Nexus 4
[Vibrant Android Development] FaultException:
I'm just paranoid :p

I should see if I can figure out the crash from using the original blobs. By the way, did you see which of the blobs is crashing? Did you try swapping out each one progressively and see at which one it stopped crashing?
[LG Optimus 2x] RohanAJoshi:
Hello frendz..

.

Some days ago, I buy xperia Neo..

But now my frend asking for it at same price i got.

And I m getting optimus 2x with that amount.

is it worth ?
[LG Optimus 2x] Evil_enc:
I dont think so.. the neo looks better and has a much better software support i guess. the neo will get the new android ice cream sandwich really soon. LG instead has a worse update policy (the users had to wait a really long time until they got gingerbread).
[LG Optimus 2x] xtrustkillx:
Go for optimus 2x.
[LG Optimus 2x] SStuka:
Well, it depends...

If you want an out of the box working smartphone... stick with the Sony.

If you like experimenting with your phone and install custom ROMs... go for the LG.

It has pretty good hardware for its price. And works like a charm with CM or MIUI.

The stock ROMs are s**t.
[LG Optimus 2x] bliizzz:
Definitely go for it
[LG Optimus 2x] I.R.Chevy:
Wouldn't trade my phone for the Sony ever.

Making bad decision's one at a time.
[LG Optimus 2x] oleg1981:
its dosent matter what it was. matters only what it is! with few clicks you ahve CM7.2 with works for me faster than 2.3.6 on a nexus s witch is pure android.

defenetly would upgrade to optimus. but it depends if you can get new for new of new xperia for used optimus?
[LG Optimus 2x] salisbury_steak:
Very happy O2X user here too. CyanogenMod FTW!
[LG Optimus 2x] Dekudan:
To counter what everyone says: NONONONONO.

I honestly don't think there's a worse device to go for right now than the O2X. Sure the Dev work is good, but why go for a phone with zilch official support? The Neo's going to get ICS, I believe. The O2X might take 8 years to get it. Stay were you are.
[LG Optimus 2x] S0ci0:
Someone offered me a neo for my o2x once. I didnt even take the time to respond.

Off course you should go for the o2x, because it is an awesome phone!

Granted, the stock software sucks monkey balls, but custom rom support is way better than the neo. Once you put cyanogenmod on it, you can tweak it so its just how you like it. Thats why i love this phone. SE sucks imo for locking their bootloaders.
[LG Optimus 2x] Sckank:
I have to agree. Cyanogenmod is very very good on this one :) Actually I can buy what phone I would like. Nexus og S2 or whatever but I'm gonna stick with 2X for a while. Why? Because its so goddamn fun phone to have with all the dev's work here! :)
[LG Optimus 2x] nundoo:
What CM are you guys using and like so much? I tried the latest nightly #204 and it was full of bugs(camera especially, also touch button led's turning off, etc.)...
[LG Optimus 2x] S0ci0:
Me i'm using Temasek's latest kang (CM 7.2). I would advise you to use a new kang as well instead of nightlys, obviously, as the buildbot is broken.
[LG Optimus 2x] syzwn9:
If you like to rooting your device, definitely go for optimus

but if only want official update, go for neo

lg stock rom sucks but the custom rom really2 great!
[LG Optimus 2x] punyategar:
The eternal suggestion for any android phone is when there are devs working on it and they are doing great, just go for the phone. Any kind of it.
[LG Optimus 2x] dandeli21:
im so happy with it, i had xperia x10, galaxy tab, and if when i bougth lg 2x LG would have been spending $ 150 more of i must, but i cant so i go for 2x and a friend of mine has the ss2 and the lg doents ask much may be on multitasking but im not using ten apps at time im hapi muiu user, cm is good too but i like the tools on miui, limit data and those stuff
[LG Optimus 2x] kemmo123:
do the swap before the neo owner realises he is retarded...
[LG Optimus 2x] AndreT7:
I have an O2x while my sister has a Neo, both phones are good, but my O2X is faster, has better screen, and is better supported in fact of custom roms.

On the other hand, Neo looks better and has better stock rom support (and ICS soon)...

Summing everything i'll go for the O2X anyway ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] I.R.Chevy:
Hardware > Software

[LG Optimus 2x] ShunSeb47:
Well I had the same delima between optimus 2x and xperia Neo , go for optimis 2x you won't be disappointed , and install cm7.1 asap because LG skin is crap :-P
[LG Optimus 2x] RohanAJoshi:
Thanx for ur help.

Finaly i decided to go for 2x.

But my badluck that, the site which is offering me 2x in 18k (cheapest ever) is out of stock.

Dont know when stock will be available.
[LG Optimus 2x] ShunSeb47:
try a local retailer
[LG Optimus 2x] miina_tokiha:
if you want to use custom ROM (specially CM), go for O2X.

it has the best spec for its price.

you can't go wrong.

see my sig how good it is after a few tweaks.
[LG Optimus 2x] releva:
If you just want to use a phone use Neo, if you want to play with ur phone, stay with 2x.
[LG Optimus 2x] punyategar:
O2x is defntly great for its price. I havent had any issues with the hardware itself. Just never to use stock rom ever.
[LG Optimus 2x] backylasek:
if you want to have a stable phone put of the box, take the sony.

if you want to have one of the best phones (with a little bit work), take the 2x
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 105437:
I thought I would check and see how much battery is used overnight on my Nexus. What I found was that the Android OS kept the device awake over half the time. Also, for some reason the phone used battery as well.

I'm running stock 4.0.2, rooted and unlocked... is this typical?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gogol:
Yes, this is known bug:

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=22878

Don't forget to star that issue ...

And tell all your neighbors ... all your friends to star it as well.

Spread the word ... tell the universe ...

Google must fix this!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rman18:
Hey Guys -

I shut off location services and my battery drained only 9% in 8 hours of non use last night... It used to be around 25%. I'm thinking that Android keeps waking to check where you are... Just shutting off GPS is not enough as it will wake to find your location via wifi or cell towers.

Just my 2 cents. Give this a try to see if that helps you guys out. Google still needs to fix this but it might be a good temporary workaround.

Rob
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tk123456789:
I typically see around 8-10% battery drain overnight off the charger. And I thought I had problems. If you are losing 25% over night that seems unacceptable.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 105437:
It actually dropped from 100% to 24% overnight which is almost 10% per hour.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] psycho2097:
i lose 1% in 1.5hrs, on standby in ATT HSPA+ network, i thought that was pretty good.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Geezer Squid:
Roman has fixed it or at least it appears he has. I loaded his CDMA rom "[ROM] [AOSP] Android Open Kang Project - toro build 9 [Dec 21]" over at rootz and it is putting the phone to sleep when the screen is off. My phone had be staying awake 30 - 50% of the time prior to this. I've only had the rom loaded a short time, but in the last 40 minutes of non-use my Staying Awake time has been about 2 minutes. YMMV

Good luck.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 105437:
Thanks for the reply... that's encouraging to hear. I'd like to stay stock for a while so hopefully 4.0.3 drops soon!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] McDeadagain:
I know many people recommend rooting and using a custom rom, but I've had a poor experience with that. Having said that, I've been working on battery issues and this is a picture of my battery drain overnight. It basically took a nosedive.

What I don't understand is some people are getting great battery life from this phone. I've turned off all my widgets and followed many recommendations - but frankly I shouldn't have to do any of that and even so my battery life is abysmal.

Is there any answer to this problem short of rooting? Do I have any reason to believe that google will acknowledge and correct this issue?

By the way I had a Droid Razr for a month prior to the Nexus, and it would lose no more than 10% of it's battery overnight.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GinoSylum:
I do everything "wrong" (syncing, gps - wifi - data on) I have 5 widgets on my home screens and I loose less than a % per hour over night if not on the charger.

When I am using my phone I keep the screen on full brightness. This will get me about 12 hours of use with 4 hours screen on time.

I have no idea why some people get great battery life and others don't. There must be bugs floating around. Lets see what 4.0.3 brings. I'm unlocked and rooted but still stock.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] McDeadagain:
That's the frustrating thing - it's working great for some people.

I have to return mine because the headphone jack doesn't do stereo, maybe I'll get lucky and the new one won't have signal and battery issues.

The Razr never dropped voice or data - the Nexus drops both multiple times during the day.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
I would try a different radio. I wasn't exactly thrilled with reception at first. A North American radio changed that. But i would still give moto a step up on reception.

I think more people should also consider congestion in their city to how well battery life does. Can Make a big difference. Otoh though, that doesn't account for standby at night when you're asleep. It would seem to me no matter how your phone is setup 1% an hour should be the norm, unless your phone downloads a lot of data.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GinoSylum:
Ya, try swapping it, IDK... I have yet to drop a single call on my Nexus. One thing i can say is Samsung needs to look at their quality control. I definitely got a good one. I don't see the REAL problems others are having. The fact that most phones are fine, and some are duds is the one thing i will hold against Samsung. Gives a really good phone a bad name when so many have issues.

I can say its not all of them.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
Thats just horrible idle drain. Something kept it awake you can see.

I feel bad cause my gsm version is literally the best idle drain phone ive ever had. It stays dead flat for me and last night i lost about 1% every 2 hours, and tgat is witg data on and two gmail syncing etc. Its just awesome. I think there is something wrong with tge verizon model. My phone is stock too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
Is it related to wifi? Noticed most of your drain was while wifi was off.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Kidd_Funkadelic:
I just tried a new ROM last night and had an improvement with my phone sleeping more of the time the screen was off yet the battery drain doubled to 3%/hour. Can someone explain how that makes sense? My phone slept 10 of 11 hours during this time. And the CPU was scaled down at 350 mhz by the kernel the entire time while the screen was off. So confused...

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] str355:
i have the same setup and loose less than 1% an hour, when the phone is idle
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] McDeadagain:
Thanks to the kind folks who have replied with questions, comments, or just sympathy :-)

There are of course a lot of threads in this forum related to the Nexus battery life and I've been trying to do my own due diligence. I have removed every widget from the phone - even those which are just 'switches' and should not make any data requests. It was still draining.

Then I removed the fancy Light Flow lite app that gave me pretty notification lights - still drained.

Finally, I removed Battery Monitor Widget - the very app I was using to try to find the cause of my drain.

Took the phone off the charger at about 10:30 this morning. Used it for navigation for 20 minutes, ran the bluetooth for a bit and that took quite a bit off the battery. However, when I got home I forgot to turn the wifi on and set the phone down. Sitting there doing nothing connected to 4g the battery dropped less than 10% over three hours. I didn't look closely enough to see the exact numbers but overall I'm at 60% now after 6 hours of what I would call moderate use.

Most importantly, the phone seems to actually sleep now when not in use. I don't mind if the battery drops a bit faster during use - it has a great screen and wicked fast 4g. I just don't want it to tank when it's not doing anything.

For right now, it's acting exactly how I would expect and I'm very pleased. Will probably give it another day and then try to add back my beautiful widgets time/weather/calendar widget on the home screen and see what kind of damage that does. Maybe try a different battery widget as I like the percent left in the notification bar.

Good thing is, now I have a baseline that I'm happy with to measure my performance from.

Thanks again for those who've posted in this thread. Hope anyone else having similar issues might benefit from my experience.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] McDeadagain:
And I'm right back where I started. Phone had insomnia last night. I took it off the charger at 100% last night at midnight and it died within five hours sitting on my night stand.

They should be in the Marketplace, check that you have set your Zune account region to the UK.

Nokia Drive/Music only comes preloaded from the factory and are not on the marketplace.
