[Motorola Droid 3] Hashcode:
Few days ago, I completely stripped out the dev/ion references from the camera code and was starting to work through a rewrite using our version of the memory tiler built into the kernel (read as TI memmgr1.0) Basically, that caused a little instability in the system which you can see in Alpha #4. Also, it hung the media_audio service out on the boot up which is why it's taking so long to boot currently.

Today, I reverted all of those changes, and instead built a ion_driver kernel module. The /dev/ion device is the new ICS interface for Android to work with the memory tiler at the kernel level. The module included an update to the tiler / dmm driver source as well (i named them tiler2 and tiler2_dmm) and all of the ion driver calls are directed to tiler2 instead of the original.

If loaded on system boot, tiler2_dmm.ko, and tiler2.ko modules load fine.

But, I'm working through some missing references on the ion_driver.ko module.

I'll know more in a day or so as I debug it, as to whether this technique will work.

Worst case is, I'll have to re-write the tiler2 portion as a wrapper of our existing tiler instead of a whole new device as it is now.

TL;DR: Camera needs the /dev/ion device (as does a few codecs) I'm working on a kernel module solution at the moment which has some bugs.

I am in Canada using Bell and I can't seem to add APNs as they won't save. I am currently using a verizon Droid 3 and I have tried switched the network to both WCDMA mode only as well as auto GSM. Any tips on what might be causing the problem?

ICS/CM9 users

i posted a video in my thread [first post] that shows Alpha3 running smoothly. I made the video because lots of users were saying many things didnt work in the ROM that did. It shows that paid&free apps, google music, gallery, quickpic, wifi,usb charging and everything but camera works. It seemed like some users needed a little proof to how it should be running. Well anyone is free to check it out =] Follow hashcodes instructions exactly and this is what youll get. Happy ROMing :D

[Motorola Droid 3] monkeydrufy:
tuned, waiting for camera

thanks for your effort
[Motorola Droid 3] ubermetroid:
wow - what happened to the other posts?

Edit - Never mind. I read what happened.
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
You mean even when you set it to NOT unlock from slide in settings?

Because else I find this not an issue at all. In fact I bought widgetlocker just to have my phone unlock when I slide
[Motorola Droid 3] tliebeck:
Noticed storage is still a bit wonky.../mnt/sdcard-ext is now being returned as default external storage per Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory(). (The "External" storage in that API call means default user storage, not removable storage.) I believe isExternalStorageRemovable() is returning false, which it should be (provided the default storage is corrected to be /mnt/sdcard).

Thanks again for all your hard work, hope to switch to this as my daily-use phone soon. I like my Galaxy Nexus well enough but there's just no replacement for a physical keyboard.

(Reposted here...didn't see old thread was dropped as I had it bookmarked)
[Motorola Droid 3] jiangkarl:
good job Hashcode!

everything works fine except a few things like the camera, the video didn't play, the flash, hope those thing could be solved very soon!

thanks again for all people who work on a flawless droid3 cm9 ics rom!

"Keyboard slide out will unlock phone"

Please don't fix this, lol
[Motorola Droid 3] folkmono:
tks hashcode alpha4# is awesome

battery life in 3g is bad
[Motorola Droid 3] adamskub:
Ya when I saw this I was a little disappointed that this was a issue. But I can see why some people may not want this to happen. Would be awesome if we could maybe get a option to tick if we wanted slide keyboard to unlock, but more important stuff to fix first :D
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
But there IS an option right? at least I think I saw it in options. On GB now so can't check
[Motorola Droid 3] beard0:
Not that I can find..I don't like the slide unlock and I looked in all the settings for that option lol

/Droid3
[Motorola Droid 3] redsox985:
I'm in favor of a "slide to unlock" option if he's able to track down the culprit. I sometimes have my phone slide open a crack in my pocket, but it's enough to light up the screen and thus unlock it.
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
It almost needs to open 1cm before it unlocks!!
[Motorola Droid 3] Bobbar:
Exchange calendar working for anyone?
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
Not sure if it matters but all my videos work fine in MX player, even 720p MKVs.
[Motorola Droid 3] Hashcode:
I should have said: Hardware accelerated video codecs. Any apps that have their own software programming to handle video should work atm: YouTube, MX player, etc.

Hardware accelerated video codecs are used HEAVILY by the camera where you need 30 frames a second at 1080p. And that's why all of the fuss over the new kernels to support it.

hemirunner426's link to OmapPedia is fantastic as it explains what the Ducati subsystem does and how it works. Android really only scratched the surface in Gingerbread as the OMAP4 code was all new at the time.

http://www.omappedia.org/wiki/Ducati_For_Dummies
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
I see. For me the differences right now isn't that big with gingerbread. In MX player, the majority of my XVID and MKVs have no hardware acceleration on gingerbread. E.g. only house season 7 has hardware acceleration but none of the other seasons do (yet they are all xvid). And when they do, they are 95% smooth but less smooth than fast S/W mode.

In the default player MKVs are very smooth but have no sound.

But ye it looks promising!

I'll keep using ICS alpha #3 until the GSM FC occurs..IF it occurs :D
[Motorola Droid 3] hemirunner426:
looks like there is some drama unfolding in the RAZR world.

http://www.droidrzr.com/index.php/topic/400-ap-fastboot-mode-se-says-device-is-unlocked/page__st__20

Someone has an unlocked boot loader.
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
How would he have it and no-one else?
[Motorola Droid 3] hemirunner426:
Says he bought it that way.

Anyways, nobody is sure at this point if that BL can be used on other RAZRs, much less our phones. Time will tell I suppose.
[Motorola Droid 3] Dri94:
:mad: not fair! i wish this would happen for our Droid3s
[Motorola Droid 3] sarreq:
and can it be exploited?
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
The admin things so. If true looks like he got an engineer's model of sth
[Motorola Droid 3] Dri94:
could the exploit of a droid rzr benefit us tho?
[Motorola Droid 3] xxspark89xx:
If I were Motorola, this would be a perfect way of secretly unlocking bootloaders. :cool:

It's like a viral-effect, let 1 device released into the wild with its bootloader unlocked, and let the developers figure it out for themselves. Give it time and it will spread like wildfire.
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
Well, 1 wouldn't be a good idea..I think <1% of razr users even knows what a bootloader is :D
[Motorola Droid 3] phrir1:
True, true, but if it is in fact unlocked and it does help us to I'm so glad this guy wasn't " one of those guys" (LOL). And he asked about it.
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
Any way to

1) stop the triple vibration when you unlock?

2) make any hardware key wake the phone?

Thanks
[Motorola Droid 3] billyhoyle13:
I'm missing the volume rocker wake too. I assume it's only a matter of time though, as it was an option in CM7. There are more important issues to be tackled first (stupid camera).
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
Hashcode, i had the chance briefly to try alpha 4, i still bootloop unless plugged into usb. I'm running the iusacell 2.3.6 found here
[Motorola Droid 3] adamskub:
I assume your using a xt860, look at this post. You'll have to redo everytime your flash a new version.
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
Excellent. Thank you
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
Meh.. had to go back to mavrom because when I put it at the charger the LED stays on all the time. I thought this was fixed?
[Motorola Droid 3] JasonOT:
Just changing the eMMC to "EXTERNAL_STORAGE" should have done that.

Having the external SD visible to Gallery, Music, and whatever else is a matter of getting "SECONDARY_STORAGE" to operate similarly to "EXTERNAL_ALT_STORAGE" did with the stock Motorola ROM.

Like I said the other day, mounting the external SD card (as EXTERNAL_ALT_STORAGE or SECONDARY_STORAGE) to a subdirectory of /mnt/sdcard provides a temporary workaround so Music & Gallery can see the internal and external card.
[Motorola Droid 3] Dri94:
How does it help us?
[Motorola Droid 3] digitalsynner85:
Could it possibly help guide us towards finding an exploit if it was the case and the razr bootloader was indeed unlocked somehow?
[Motorola Droid 3] phrir1:
I was just saying IF it does help us, not saying it will. But if it does help us I'm glad the guy asked about it. That was it.

Get alogcat from the app market. Run it, and try to capture the fc, and save the file.

"Good news to those of us worried about the lifespan of the LED - it shuts off when fully charged."

[Motorola Droid 3] VincentDHam:
Yeah i noticed that. Even with the light flow app it cant be controlled.
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
How do you recreate the FC? I've been using alpha #3 now for 2 days, with a couple switches back to gingerbread but the GSM FC just won't happen. 3G/calling works fine too can hear and be heared
[Motorola Droid 3] gierso:
interesting bug :P today it started to no change to CDMA a ALL in ICS (i dont Have CDMA but GSM in my D3 so im Ok with that. )

after that i haven had a Force close on Diealer because its not trying to go to CDMA anymore i guess.

the weird thing is that it stopped changing to CDMA in Stock motoblur as well and (i usually change from one to the other and back when 3g and 2g get picky).. :O

so im hardresetting my phone. to see if that fix it if not then i will SBF my phone.

anyway. my question is. if i wipe stock (do i have to do anything special with the safestrafp? as the app will be erased on wipe. (Ex, uninstall before, just reinstall the app, ETC?)

anyway alpha 4 has been best for me! keep the good work going.

Has anyone had any luck in signing into a google account? It just crashes whenever I try to access market, gmail, etc, and the accounts menu only gives me choices or "corporate" or "email" account.
[Motorola Droid 3] jjhiza:
CDMA or GSM? And more importantly, what was your process when flashing? Did you wipe everything? If you flashed and wiped properly, you should have seen a Google account sign-in screen during the setup process ... I haven't had a Google account issue since maybe Alpha 1 or 2.

[Motorola Droid 3] eww245:
Thats's odd, that device must not be present in ICS..? -b time can be removed it's just a way to show the time allong with the log. Looks like you used aLogcat so atleast you got the log.

I don't have ICS loaded right now and just assumed it would work properly.
[Motorola Droid 3] MrJudylicious:
I think ull b waiting for a few on the camera as hes been writing new kernal modules. Last i knew he was on 6/9. And he wasnt sure that would work. I doubt xoom ics update will help either.
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
It's because the command is:

logcat /b time /d > /sdcard/logcat.txt
[Motorola Droid 3] eww245:
Really. So this is something new with the ics logcat binary.
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
I tried logcat -b -d and it immediatelly said "can't find '/dev/log/ -b -d' so i figured it was using the -b -d as path rather than function. Tried /b /d and it worked fine.

Anyway from what I understand this log continues in the background and logs everything that happens?
[Motorola Droid 3] eww245:
Yes it is always logging. With the -d switch it should go back to the sh prompt at the end of the log, without it, it will continue in the foreground until hitting ctrl+c. This is how it works with Froyo and Gingerbread anyway.
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
Hm I don't know. I guess / doesn't work either as it doesn't matter if I use any of the commands and it doesn't create logcat.txt either
[Motorola Droid 3] Willis111:
This whole time I've just been using "logcat -b radio" etc and piping it to a file when needed. This way ofc closes when I close the terminal. I think the -d or /d whatever you're using is entering logcat into daemon mode though so it won't stop until you kill it somehow.
[Motorola Droid 3] MyNarwhalBacon:
You need to re-wipe. You allowed Google to restore apps. When setting up your phone again, deselect all the check-boxes that relate to restoring you google account. You can later go in to accounts, and settings to allow sync. Just do not restore your backed up Apps from Google (Titanium backup is ok as long as it isn't google apps).
[Motorola Droid 3] emprize:
i dont have to do anything, just flash, coz cm9 never work for me, lol
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
That's weird.. I've been running it 3 days now and it didn't even FC once. I can't even get it to FC if I scroll through the appdrawer very fast :o (something with dalvik cache?)
[Motorola Droid 3] jjhiza:
^^ I haven't had a FC in about 3 weeks, honestly...the last two builds have been really good to me, but then again, my VM heap is at 100, I have about 150mb RAM at most times, as well as other tweaks... if anyone is having issues, try tweaking a few things, and see if it helps at all. :)

D3 CM9 Alpha 4
[Motorola Droid 3] digitalsynner85:
Same here lol. I haven't even had to wipe dalvik once yet and I've been on cm9 since the new build was released

Edit: The only thing I've noticed isn't working for me is the data stats which I'm not worried about since I was given unlimited data. Would be nice though just to see how much I use haha.
[Motorola Droid 3] emprize:
For xt862, most of them ok, but for xt860/me863 with gsm, many problems, thats y i provided the log and hope hash could help
[Motorola Droid 3] redsox985:
I'm in the same boat and have found that the My Verizon app shows total data usage, despite it not mattering since I was grandfathered in with unlimited data. I would like to see a breakdown of how my data is used though.
[Motorola Droid 3] digitalsynner85:
They screwed up a bunch w/ my order and repairs on my phone and were supposed to only give me a month free internet, instead they accidentally put in the code for the grandfathered internet, so I'm getting unlimited net for what you'd be paying for it lol. Since finding out, I've used about 10 gigs of internet this month between streaming pandora and tethering for when our net goes out here. It's rather awesome.
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
Alpha 5 out btw

http://hash-of-codes.blogspot.com/p/android-downloads.html
[Motorola Droid 3] digitalsynner85:
I've wiped cache, dalvik, flashed rom. The phone boots up and gets to the lock screen then reboots. Rebooted into safestrap, wiped dalvik and cache again, flashed rom, and re-wiped dalvik and cache again just to make sure. I get the same issue. Were we supposed to do a complete wipe too?
[Motorola Droid 3] emprize:
maybe you can try mount-> format system?
[Motorola Droid 3] digitalsynner85:
I'll try that in addition to doing this on a full battery. I'm currently sitting at about 45%. Gonna charge and wait till 100% before attempting again.
[Motorola Droid 3] tcrews:
Yes a complete wipe is required.

You need to wipe system (Factory Reset) option as well as wiping dalvik cache and cache.

but its related to my last post (i cant go to CDMA (not even in STOCK)and as the phone cant find sim in ICS , and its trying to go back to CDMA but it cant)

will edit the ICS prop in Stock. (the network value to 3 and wipe again)

lets se if at least it can stay on GSM.

@HASHCODE .. can i SBF my phone with the Safestrap installed and start over.?? o i have to uninstall Safestrap first (from recovery or from app?? both??) and then SBF????

anyone else has this probleM?

i hope problem is software related and my phone CDMA has not died on me :(

When you click mass storage does both s cards show up or just the external?
[Motorola Droid 3] adamskub:
I started the log right before I hit dial so almost the first line is when it crashes. I looked through the log and while I can offer only observations (which could be way off) I thought line 2106-2130 was interesting. I'm not sure if that is one of the causes or something but I see some of the same things when the phone crashes at the start.

Anywho, hope this helps! :p
[Motorola Droid 3] adamskub:
I only get external as well
[Motorola Droid 3] VincentDHam:
Okay, just checking
[Motorola Droid 3] neilrl79:
For you guys that have alpha 5 up and running, did you wipe everything? I tried just wiping cache and it will boot all the way up and then within a few seconds it will reboot. I also tried wiping data,cache and system, then installing zip and gapps and then restoring data like I used to do for cm7 nightlies on my DROID but that led to the same problem.
[Motorola Droid 3] adamskub:
Since we now have CM Settings I made some changes to automatic brightness. I always found it to be way to bright at night when I'm in any darkness (especially now that ICS has a lot more white to google apps). So I changed the light sensor levels and just want to share if people wanted to try it out.

I set my screen dim level to 1 and Allow light decrease.
[Motorola Droid 3] Cdjones187:
Nice to see you here Krazy. Thanks again for helping me un-brick my D3 the long hard and manual way! (weeks before we had fastboot) Probably don't remember me, but I was the guy that had to replace EVERYTHING in my system and thanks to you and Ben64 all went well.
[Motorola Droid 3] jjhiza:
I wipe everything all the time, unless the dev specifically says it isn't needed. Wiping everything should solve your issue.

The only issue I've seen is with TiBu... I didn't see any of the backups I had made, about 5 minutes before flashing Alpha 5. It seems that Hashcode has changed up the sd card format again (gallery works fine now), and I'll have to tinker around with TiBu to see if I can get some of my backups to appear. Also, this is the first time I've ever been prompted to activate the phone... has this happened to anyone else? Not that I'm concerned (because everything works fine so far), but I've been running this ROM since Alpha 2, and I've never been prompted to activate...
[Motorola Droid 3] hemirunner426:
Everyone who is restoring system data with Titanium backup should be aware that restoring SMS/MMS/APN config data will result in a forced reboot like whats described above.

Hash has made some APN config changes in beta 5. Ti backup will restore the old APN data and cause the reboots.

Use SMS backup or other alternative to backup/restore SMS.
[Motorola Droid 3] adamskub:
Did you try in TiBu Menu > Preferences > Backup Folder Location > Detect ? That should get you the backups you need :)
[Motorola Droid 3] hemirunner426:
If you go into the preferences for TiBu you can set the backup directory or have it scan for one. It should find your backups then.
[Motorola Droid 3] neilrl79:
If you go into settings on TiBu there's an option that will search for your back-ups. As far as activating goes I had to do it when I flashed alpha4.
[Motorola Droid 3] hemirunner426:
Beat me to it! :)
[Motorola Droid 3] VincentDHam:

[Motorola Droid 3] hemirunner426:
This is still an issue with the current beta. Hash directed me on how to download from his repo... Once I learn some more stuff I think this will be the first bug I'll help track down.
[Motorola Droid 3] Cdjones187:
That is correct.

"There's the standard CDMA2000 1x/EVDO Rev.A 800 / 1900 MHz connectivity for Verizon and some roaming on other CDMA carriers, alongside GSM/UMTS 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900 support for roaming abroad. There's 2.4 GHz 802.11n support, though no 5 GHz love for 802.11an."
[Motorola Droid 3] billyhoyle13:
I finally got calling working on GSM (in Canada). Tried the usual *#*#4636#*#* select GSM (auto)...no dice. SMS worked, but calls just hung. Searched for mobile networks, selected Rogers 3G, no dice. What I think finally did it was going into phone settings using *#*#4636#*#*, disabling radio, rebooting, going back in, enabling radio, and rebooting. I can now make calls =D

I'm not positive that was the sequence of events I followed (for instance, I'm not 100% that I rebooted after disabling radio, and I was attempting to make calls throughout the process), but it works now, so it's some combination of the above.
[Motorola Droid 3] :
is the multitouc bug vom ICS in the alpha5 fixed ?
