[Desire HD Android Development] TheBrilliantMistake:
If you place it inside build.prop it will work too.

Perhaps some misinformation's flying around - the local.prop lies within /data therefore one assumes it will be deleted if the user clears all user data, whereas in build.prop, that's set for life (in theory).

I believe the 'correct' way to override settings is in local.prop - so that a factory reset will clear the overrides. But I'm no Android expert.
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
The local.prop is for making sure it doesn't persist through a data clear, wheras clearing data wont remove the values for system. It is kind of a "per-install" property concept. I was just thinking more for "I'm not really gonna change this more than once" lol. I threw together a setup to add it that looks like:

https://github.com/ThePlayground/pr...mmit/d97e8eba14892242090509464e9d7d9554a96a87
[Desire HD Android Development] TheBrilliantMistake:
As I suspected.

It's a shame they didn't allow it to remain on sdcard/data, then users could have a persistent override!
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
Only issue there is permissions. The sdcard doesn't have variable permissions otherwise it would be possible using symlinks. It would have to be on ext to work so it's a hassle. It would be nice though.

Sorry, i meant as far as fixing the market.
[Desire HD Android Development] seggerman5926:
Is there a fix for the phone force closing at density of 160? Would a logcat help?
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
There is a fix I just haven't built in since it was added. It actually fixes a lot of density issues.
[Desire HD Android Development] seggerman5926:
Looking forward to it.

[Desire HD Android Development] arknailed7754:
Twisted you any closer to getting the camcorder rolling? Just asking
[Desire HD Android Development] seggerman5926:
Tablet style settings interface is cool! :D I do still have phone fc though. Thanks for all your hard work!

Inspire 4g
[Desire HD Android Development] MusikMonk:
^That^

Same as before, only density >=190 makes phone works.

And just a suggestion, perhaps you should set defaults for "Custom Apps" for the lockscreen. Cause it seems to have weird behaviour if none were chosen.
[Desire HD Android Development] dljo:
Tapatalk fc on dpi 190, works on 240...

Market is "black" on 190, also works on 240

Really want 190 or even 160, any closer to a "fix" twisted... (saw you talked about maybe including something in next build)
[Desire HD Android Development] freedom4me:
@Twisted, just to ask before i flash this rom. Is the overlay script included in this rom as well?
[Desire HD Android Development] fishykipper:
@twisted, just flashed the latest DHD.

SUPER FAST, SUPER SUPER FAST!!

Loving the multi settings display, works perfectly. Very nice indeed.

Profiles is amazing!

Just seen on your GIT youre working hard on the camera. :-D
[Desire HD Android Development] tsamrein:
twisted--is there any way to make the change available to revert back to the phone style settings menu? I like the tablet style but I generally make my settings changes in portrait mode and that is difficult with split screens.

Tom
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
I can make it an option it will just take a little time to track down all the calls to it to have them abide by it.
[Desire HD Android Development] pnoire:
Hi Twisted,

"Full" working camera and camrecorder in a ICS rom for DHD?

No, i've not downloaded the zip. But you're right, both links are dead: the one to the chinese website and the one for downloading.

I'll ask people on IceCold thread if someone can post a mirror link :)

--

its interesting to get it rolling,but then quickly dismayed by the nasty looking interface,fairplay though each to there own,its miui so either you like it or you dont,saying that nova and chrome works..lol think some might actually use it as there daily..personally ill wait for twisted and lords ics lol..smoother and closer to what ics should be..but as i said thats personal preference,
[Desire HD Android Development] lululala:
the nova n chrome bit was to prove that it is indeed a ics rom..not some heavily modded gb rom as suggested by some.. anyway I too find the orange theme ugly... and also the videos captured max out at 640x480... not 720p
[Desire HD Android Development] arknailed7754:
Yep all worked
[Desire HD Android Development] arknailed7754:
Twisted sorry to ask just curious the lib in this qiss build is called goldfish where as lc is spade does this make the difference lol or is it just the dev renaming his lib? Could be wrong goldfish is in both but there is a difference..hard in my phone though to compare...I could be talking crap though
[Desire HD Android Development] JoKeR_FaCe:
Anyone know the difference from quiss ROM to other?

@Twisted: do you have found any useful things?

Gesendet von meinem HTC Desire HD mit Tapatalk
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
Goldfish is the nexus lib. They probably used a prebuilt nexus lib with nexus proprietaries. Makes sense but it will hurt the quality and limit updates.
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
Everything, and many. This one is fast, stable, and clean. I still have a lot left to do but I am working on a camera overhaul that should fix it for good.
[Desire HD Android Development] arknailed7754:
Lets hope so..back up restore back up restore..does your nut in.

Thanks for clearing that up twisted just thought id mention it was all
[Desire HD Android Development] arknailed7754:
Any luck with your work..twisted
[Desire HD Android Development] dreamland2000:
Anyone having any issues with apps not responding after a new installation?

I have done a full wipe and used the latest build yet when I am trying to run my apps after restoring from TB they all FC.

I am also having an issue with Chrome not being recognised by the OS.

Thanks
[Desire HD Android Development] MusikMonk:
I'm not sure I understand what you mean by "Chrome not being recognised by the OS" but if you mean that you're getting a message about your ROM being unsported when opening chrome then try to update Chrome. The latest version of Chrome fixed that issue for me.

As for FCs, are you still on 160 DPI or did you change it? I was getting tons of crashes when not using 240 DPI.
[Desire HD Android Development] dreamland2000:
I will get the updated version from the market and install that.

I am running on 190dpi, I shall try changing back to 240 and see what happens.

@Twisted - any idea how to get the apps working in a different dpi?

Thanks
[Desire HD Android Development] Nark.GA60:
I had lots of problems at 160. Changed back to 240 and I still get FCs occasionally.

Also Quiet Hours doesn't seem to work?
[Desire HD Android Development] dreamland2000:
I have had a play about with different settings, ways of running apps but nothing would work, I tried all sorts of DPI's and still nothing. Its a shame though as I really enjoy the speed and feel of this ROM compared to others.

Just hope it can be sorted soon.
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
Anything specific? Have you tried changing the ro.compat.override in build.prop?
[Desire HD Android Development] dreamland2000:
I have changed the DPI in the build.prop but I am unable to find the ro.compat.override anywhere in the build.prop.

I use Aldiko reader and as soon as I open that it FC's, the sync app for it runs fine.

Tapatalk FC's when I try to read a thread but is fine when browsing forums as long as I don't enter a thread.
[Desire HD Android Development] Nark.GA60:
The two lines follow each other in the build.prop.

ro.sf.lcd_density=240

qemu.sf.lcd_density=240

I think??
[Desire HD Android Development] dreamland2000:
Ah yeah, I changed both of those to different values, but never above 240 and nothing seemed to make a difference. Just cant understand what the issue is.

I run everything under 190dpi on the Ice Cold Sandwich rom with no issues on my apps.
[Desire HD Android Development] RampageRR:
I believe Twisted said to try using the app Spare Parts and change the compatibility setting. I don't change my dpi from 240 ever, so not sure if it takes care of the issue completely.
[Desire HD Android Development] dreamland2000:
I tried that also, but I did customise the ROM before flashing, I added my own apps and removed some of the ones from it that I dont use. I will try a new flash with nothing changed and take it from there.
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
That build.prop flag has it set already. That's why I was saying to change that because maybe compatibility mode is needed for what is being run.
[Desire HD Android Development] dreamland2000:
I will certainly give it a try but will most likely be the morning now. But will report back if it makes a difference.
[Desire HD Android Development] xerionn:
Hey all,

I just wanted to give this ROM a try since its closer to CM9 so i was wondering what the kernel patch "use as directed" means ?

I am only asking this cause i try to flash it after flashing the ROM and there was an error regarding the arguments that mount is expecting. ROM booted fine of course but everything was really tiny which I am certainly sure that is due to the lack of the proper kernel.

Thanks in advance
[Desire HD Android Development] Nark.GA60:
Tiny is because the dpi is set to 160. You need to edit /system/build.prop and change a setting to 240. I posted it up a few posts ago.

Probably easiest way is to open the zip file on your PC, change the build.prop file and flash it again.
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
Use as directed means when there is a notice that you need it, you should use it. The kernel is already included. It is the build.prop setting listed above.
[Desire HD Android Development] dreamland2000:
I used the spare parts to try and sort out the compatibility of apps, most now work without issue all except chrome browser. Its still showing an error that its not compatible with this os.
[Desire HD Android Development] dijonemon:
Not sure about this ROM, but I had to change ro.build.id to IML74K in the build.prop file, to get Chrome working under ICS.
[Desire HD Android Development] dreamland2000:
I updated Chrome to the latest from the market and it now seems to work fine. Maybe the old version didn't register ICS as being present?
[Desire HD Android Development] adanoss:
Is it possible to revert Settings UI from tablet-like to smartphone-like? I've changed lcd dpi to 240 and two-column layout in Settings 've become little bit frustrating))
[Desire HD Android Development] MusikMonk:
It's more usable on landscape as a temporary workaround. Right now there's no such option but twisted said he'll look into allowing it to be toggled in future builds.
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
Dug into frameworks, found where it reads the setting and added a toggle under display settings to make it user selectable. Building now.
[Desire HD Android Development] fishykipper:
Building now :-D

How long until we can download sir?
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
Not sure. Sorting out some issues with context. It wasn't really made for this sort of editing

Good news is I just aught the release notes on the ether build and they are all options we already had except fast charge, which is unstable and hurts long-term battery life.
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
Should be available in about 15 minutes
[Desire HD Android Development] Rdlgrmpf:
Could you point me to where it reads the value? Found one in Settings and one in Contactsapp, so every app reads it directly from the xml that stores the fragment-usage right?
[Desire HD Android Development] SnowOokami:
very off topic, but this build works pretty awesome on the DZ (except the wifi) :p and the 160 density is too small for the 3,7" screen.

nice going Twisted! maybe you can consider supporting the DZ later?
[Desire HD Android Development] fishykipper:
Thank for the update mate. Downloading now!! :-)
[Desire HD Android Development] HC4Life:
Camera 100% works in the last build?
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
What do you mean? There are like 40 calls to the dual pane throughout a build, but there is a central XML preference in frameworks. I hacked frameworks to check a setting instead of the preference though.
[Desire HD Android Development] Rdlgrmpf:
Ah ok, because when I looked at it I found the same. So you basically changed all 40 calls to check for your preference instead? I take it there is now way to change that xml after building?
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
Can't change the file after building, but what I posted in the other forum was a single edit that overrides calling the preference and uses a setting instead
[Desire HD Android Development] Rdlgrmpf:
This will work for all the apps compiled at build if someone changes all the calls. Not sure if apps from market also have this access to the XML but if they do there is no way around building a separate framework with this XML changed right? If they use any method inherited from Activity, which can be modified, the chances of system-wide tablet style are bigger. Correct me if I'm wrong, I'm still learning about Roms and android development ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
It only applies to frameworks and settings. It would not apply to phone, or any other Applications that have their own preferences providers. The next step is to get those apps a global setting that will allow it, but currently that's not set up.
[Desire HD Android Development] Rdlgrmpf:
Let's stay here for that topic :) I will have a look into how "normal " apps look for multipane. I personally would prefer a system wide preference. Either I want my phone to be a tablet or not. Are you really going to change 40 calls and add 40 new preferences or will you just pick some apps?
[Desire HD Android Development] kaijura:
Does this same concept apply for setting on the nexus navigation bar? (config_shownavigationbar)

Since they both can be flagged on in the configuration xml the same way.. Also aokp has built in support for the nexus buttons to boot
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
It's not that hard. And it's 40 calls to check a variable, but only one call per app to the variable. One change did settings, one for contacts, and so on.
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
I already have show/hide navigation bar. It's the same idea.
[Desire HD Android Development] Nark.GA60:
I'm getting lots of blank screens on the latest build.

Flashed it twice now with full wipe both times.

Anyone else getting this?
[Desire HD Android Development] ProbyWaN:
Same here, especially while in settings and in ROM manager.
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
Something went flaky with the last build. It was happening on my shooter as well but oddly not thunderbolt. Either was it needs a new build anyway to test the density changer that was ported.
[Desire HD Android Development] fp581:
i flashed it over the older build and it's working like a charm on 192 density (but no cam recorder it cant save the files)
[Desire HD Android Development] Nark.GA60:
Twisted, is your ROM supposed to have wifi AP functionally?

If so, it doesn't work on my DHD (tested last two builds).

If not, then please ignore.
[Desire HD Android Development] nemo136:
This was just posted...
[Desire HD Android Development] arknailed7754:
As I said on the other ics...hope it works
[Desire HD Android Development] Sid_dominic56:
. I hope he tries out the camera fix soon
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
I can slap the changes on the old camera hal and see what it does. The one I have been working with, though is https://github.com/ThePlayground/android_hardware_qcom_camera/blob/ics/QualcommCameraHardware.cpp which adds a lot of functionality.
[Desire HD Android Development] arknailed7754:
So no closer with camcorder with this news then twisted?
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
Don't know. Building now. Might be for the old layout.
[Desire HD Android Development] arknailed7754:
When ready quite happy to test
[Desire HD Android Development] fp581:
wired problem in the newest build u cant charge the phone and use gps at the same time
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
Ill have to test that and get back to you. That is unusual.
[Desire HD Android Development] SnowOokami:
can I push these rom's camera files to my desire Z? or do I have to recompile the whole rom?
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
I didn't build the new camera files yet. I am fixing the issues with them and the camera app first then I will have updates. The current ones that are being used by IceColdSandwich are your best bet to get some of the functionality for now.
[Desire HD Android Development] ProbyWaN:
Wanted to say thanks to twisted for all the work he's put in, everything is coming together and looking great
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
I'm going to throw out just an updated hal for now until it's all working to save the heavy lifting. I need logs running stuff like goggles to make sure functionality gets restored, but it may be already with the last rewrite.
[Desire HD Android Development] Nark.GA60:
Barcode scanner works. A local shopping app works too.

Goggles gives that weird color thing.

Edit: Angel Camera in portrait mode works flawlessly as well.

Not near a PC, so I can't get logs for you.
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
That is good news. Ill be able to start logs soon, but that file beat my build so it's good km know where to look at least.
[Desire HD Android Development] elbermu:
Paper camera works too...

Sent from my ti-83 plus with aokp
[Desire HD Android Development] Terrarist:
That the updated hal? Any word on file permissions? If I use Windows to extract and push, they may change.

Oh and 404 error on the dropbox link

Someone upload to mediafire please? The mirror doesn't work for me either.

Thanks in advance, thanks twisted!!!
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
I took it down to prevent confusion because I will have a new one shortly. Full rewrite of how it determines settings using the same layout as the ones used by the nexus and qsd8 with centralized parameters instead of code all spread out. Never planned to get this far into modifying it... oh well.
[Desire HD Android Development] arknailed7754:
Sorry twisted the lc thread is messy looks like you've sorted cam...maybe post it here and what to do...as i

Said its manic in the lc thread
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
The camera HAL is http://db.tt/c6e35aX8 but it looks like the current builds don't have all the support needed to use all of it, so I am making a new one with the changes I added to support Panorama (tpruvot is a genius for thinking to force proper reads / writes in frameworks and not leave it to luck) then hopefully everything will be all settled.
[Desire HD Android Development] arknailed7754:
Ill hang on then lol.
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
Yeah, going nuts with it lol
[Desire HD Android Development] fishykipper:
Cheers for the reply mate, i'll hold off until later then.

Everything coming together. Thanks for all the hard work. Can't wait to flash :-D
[Desire HD Android Development] arknailed7754:

[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
What is? Their camera stuff is also coming from me lol
[Desire HD Android Development] arknailed7754:
Maybe I put that wrong...twisteds cm9 lol
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
Lol. I don't know anymore. Its all a blur right now.
[Desire HD Android Development] fishykipper:
Lolz all a blur, I should hope so, you're making history.

Haha, you should take a break son.

But if you've time....

Hows the video camera coming along? Still corrupting the recording then not saving?
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
I stopped making edits to make a full build and add some new camera headers. It seems there may be a kernel update needed for this to work, but I am trying to avoid that.

That is what I get for trying to make time... Gotta love it... lol
[Desire HD Android Development] fishykipper:
That sick, I've never seen a developer do more. If I was a mod, he'd be so Banned.
[Desire HD Android Development] dreamland2000:
very true, from all I have seen and read (and I do read every post) the devs have put in so much of their own time to make this work and have stuck with it despite people whining about the camera when they were told it doesn't work or that its being worked on.

Just really annoys me when people are so ungrateful for the hard work. Everywhere it says that these build are still wip so what do expect when things don't work properly.

If something doesn't work and it hasn't been reported then report it. Or if it has been mentioned then someone may have a fix and all it takes is a few seconds using the search function to find the answer.

I am just really grateful for all the hard work that has gone into not only this rom but the other ics roms from everyone not just the devs.

Sorry for the ot rant but I have seen so much negativity on these threads from people who don't/won't read the posts or just search for what they are looking for.

Just everyone keep up the amazing work as it is thoroughly appreciated by us and we will support your work however we can, testing, customizing, tweaks, work a rounds etc.

Right rant over :rolleyes:
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
In all honesty when I read that post, I laughed. They have a version that is all but the camera, all I was doing was trying to add hardware support to it. I handed them the droid 2 camera code that will fix theirs, so I can imagine they'll be just fine.
[Desire HD Android Development] dreamland2000:
Well clearly some think you guys/girls are just sat around not coding for our devices!!

Why not just be grateful for what we have so far and offer support to those working on the roms.

If I could learn this coding any quicker I would love to help but I trying to teach myself first lol and making slow progress.
[Desire HD Android Development] twistedumbrella:
It takes time. I only started source editing some 4/5 months ago, but It took 4 years of Android to get there. A lot of it is just reading what was done step by step and translating it for another use.
[Desire HD Android Development] dreamland2000:
that's what I've been trying to with these builds, just 'playing' about and seeing what happens.

Can't decide if I prefer working in Java or not lol.
[Desire HD Android Development] freedom4me:
It tooks time to understand these codes...

I am learning as well and hope to offer some help in the future.
