Next release should be good...I've updated a few prebuilt libs I use from CodeAurora (libv8.so, libmmparser.so...etc) as well as updated the proprietary qcom GPU libs... As always merged the latest from AOSP and various commits from CAF.. Made a few minor speed improvements to the Launcher..updated kernel with msm_fb from 3.0 kernel, plus a lot more...and hopefully squashed a few of these bugs as well.

I'm hoping to have it up in a day or two..I will be gone tomorrow, then got a dr appointment Monday, and then my sons 2nd birthday is Tuesday, so might be Wednesday before I get around to it..but I'll try sooner.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Bzow:
Thank you Existz. Your work, as always, is much appreciated. Enjoy that birthday. :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] nhshah7:
Finally got the maps freeze/reboot on a logcat! It's attached here, and I also submitted a bug report on the google code site.

Let me know if I can provide you with anything else to figure out the bug ex!

As always, thanks for an amazing ROM :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] toysoldierq:
Plus 1+ for that enjoy the bday stalking next release

Anyone successfully build from existz source in the last couple hours?
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
What's the error? Something might have gotten pushed to aosp the last few hours and I need to update something ..but as of earlier this morning it built fine for me...I'll look at aosp and see if there's anything new
[HTC Inspire 4G] harpo1:
I posted a pastebin link on your irc channel.
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
It looks to be an issue with an update from AOSP causing build break.. you can do the following as a temp build fix (will have to do this each time you repo sync until AOSP pushes the fix), but AOSP should have it fixed pretty soon...so a repo sync will sort it out sooner or later...But in the mean time you can just do ....

(from top of aospX source)

cd external/strace

git pull https://android.googlesource.com/platform/external/strace refs/changes/00/36000/1

Is there a way to disable the screen on/ off animations... I know they are small but its preventing me from using this rom
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
There is no screen on animation, but to disable screen off animation you need to set Settings->Developer Settings->Window animation scale to .5x or 0
[HTC Inspire 4G] sportscrazed2:
Question about building from source. Is it updated at regular intervals as each change is made? Or is the source only released once the build is finalized? If that is the case building from source wouldn't get you the build much quicker at all.
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
Source is updated as soon as I change it (usually after I test each change though, then I push to git) but source is available way before a release is...Take right now for example, there's quite a bit of changes pushed to git for next release...just still working on a few things before calling it final 31 and posting on here... There's usually new stuff pushed to git everyday.

You can see my timeline at https://github.com/existz for each single update
[HTC Inspire 4G] tontondingo:
thx for your job ;)

i have reboot when i surf occasionally or on navigation and apn too

a solution or sugggestion ?

sorry for my english bad : ( ( english noob^^ ))
[HTC Inspire 4G] famewolf:
I wanted to take a moment to thank existz for all his hard work. I have reluctantly defected to another rom for the simple reason that I need 200dpi and something in the codebase of this rom now prevents several common apps such as es file explorer to run on anything but 240 dpi. Past comments have also indicated the situation isn't going to change as existz considers it a price to be paid to stay in sync with CodeAurora (or that is my understanding).

This is no way intended as any sort of slam...I just hoped to make existz aware of a possible concern that may affect other users.
[HTC Inspire 4G] toysoldierq:
Do know i have be stalking for a update all week but take your time to perfect the next release hopefully all the freezing should be solve now fingers cross:D
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
Has this been with last 2 versions? Reason I ask is the updated webkit from AOSP master broke lowered dpi (which is what I used 28-down), but since 29 (I think) I switched to CodeAurora webkit/skia, which uses the version that had no issues with lowered dpi..(originally I wasn't going to move away from AOSP masters new version, but after quite a bit of trial and error I got CAFs to work, so I switched) but I don't know if the actual modifications from CodeAurora breaks anything when dpi is lower than 240. So if you haven't tried with 29-30 then its worth trying, if you have let me know so that way I know if it does.
[HTC Inspire 4G] famewolf:
I will download AR30 and give it a try. I was still on AR27 because after that you stated a clean install was mandatory and I wasn't yet ready to wipe everything. I will report back and let you know one way or the other.

Thank you!
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
I'll do what I can to get 31 up before Wednesday...I updated the proprietary adreno libs from CodeAurora and I want to see if they help with any of these reboots, mainly in browser (since most of the errors were gpu related) so far there's one site I always visit and it reboots 10/10 times, but since new libs it hasn't rebooted yet (knock on wood)... but I'm not sure if it fixed it for good or if its just a fluke ..Need it tested on a wider scale, so I'm not gonna say if its fixed or not yet.

Also I've replaced the apns-conf.xml with the latest from CM...hopefully this will fix some data issues I've seen some report. But note that they most likely won't take effect unless you either do a clean flash or go to Settings->More>Mobile Networks>access points name then hit Menu>Restore defaults.. so I want to know if anyone has any issues out of the new apn config...

There's quite a bit of updates from AOSP and CAF so I am gonna recommend a full wipe on 31...just because there's so many changes and to have the best results, a full wipe will probably be needed. Also I'm not sure if its from the new gpu libs or an update to the kernel, or what yet, but it seems the homescreen lag is 100% gone in this build...so I will also need reports on this as well before I call it fully fixed
[HTC Inspire 4G] toysoldierq:
Thanks u can try visiting www.gsmarena.com from the browser it always reboot after a while on that site.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ravennyc:
Existz, first of all.. a fab job thus far. Thank you.

Other than the browser freeze, AR30 has been a smooth sail. Either I am not particular about the home screen shutter, or I really don't know what that means and hence can't seem to find an issue. I wanted to bring to your attention that perhaps, its not only the browser that freezes. The reboot (or hang and then a reboot after a while) has also been encountered while using G-Maps. I believe I came across a log cat from a fellow poster as well. Perhaps G-maps also directly dependent on the GPU.

One plus point I wanted to share that the microphone/speaker phone with your ROM has been fantastic in comparison to my previous ROM. Do not know if others have experienced the difference.

Nevertheless, your AR updates keep me going and I religiously visit this thread.

Cheers!

OMG I am loving this rom soo much. This is the ONLY ICS rom that actually works with my bluetooth car kit seamlessly. On all of the other roms I have problems after my phone has slept, but not on this one... well done.

Just one tiny issue - I seem to be missing the option to view full timestamps in the SMS settings, and as a result cant see what time times came to me over 24 hours old. Please can this be enabled on the default client app?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Youngunn2008:
you can grab the mms.apk from Lord's ICS and place it in system/app, set permissions on it to 644 (rw-r-r) and itll work. has those settings in it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] P00t:
Hi can I ask a question? Why is this still in the beta stage? I feel as if this rom is stable for our device. I haven't noticed any major glitches/bugs. Only the camcorder is not working.
[HTC Inspire 4G] MonsterBandit:
The big issue is stock video camera
[HTC Inspire 4G] ravennyc:
Its actually in an Alpha Release stage and perhaps it will be certifiably in Beta once the reported issues (see goolge code tracker) have been resolved.

Perhaps the step towards Beta could be expedited if we can all submit a. Logcat (at a minimum) when we post about things we encounter within the Rom.

Dropped call issue with AR30

First let me thank you for the great ROM. It works really well and AR30 seems very stable.

I've been noticing a very high rate of dropped calls since I upgraded from AR29 to AR30. With the stock ROM I used to get maybe one dropped call every 2 weeks. I didn't run AR 29 long enough to see if there was an issue there before AR30 was released (maybe a week). As soon as I installed AR30, I have been noticing 2-3 dropped calls a day on average. If it's going to drop the call, it usually does it within about 2 minutes of the call being placed, inbound or outbound doesn't seem to matter. I don't know if there is a setting I can check that may be causing this and was hoping for some help on where to look. I use the phone quite a bit for calls, and out of 30 calls a day I'll get 2-3 dropped calls. Unfortunately, I'm usually not near a computer when on the phone to be able to run Logcat while on the phone, unless there's a way to do similar on the phone itself that I haven't found. Any input is appreciated.

A little about my environment. I am running this ROM using boot manager on a 32GB class 4 PNY SD card. I'm pretty new to being rooted (less than a month) so I am chalking some of my issues up to my inexperience. Hopefully this gives you enough info to point me in the right direction.

@existz, question: in your ROM , apk nova is in , why ? is this your preference? apex launcher the test you have , i think so?

sorry for my bad english :o
[HTC Inspire 4G] existz:
I don't use nova or apex...I use my own launcher compiled from AOSP source.

I don't use any 3rd party apps or launchers..because this is a full source build, built strictly from aosp source..so I won't use any add-ons .. So the stock launcher is AOSP launcher modified by me (with a lot of speed tweaks and added a few options to the menu (Homescreen->Menu->Preferences)) ..

Can you make Goo-Manager optional or give me the ability to uninstall it if I don't want it? This is going to sound extremely petty but there's an update to it every couple days or so and it's incredibly annoying.
[HTC Inspire 4G] stavros3006:
That's easy, you can use a file manager that has root access (I personally use ES File Explorer) and go to /system/app and just delete the .apk file from there yourself.

Now that I can post here, I figure that I can start contributing by actively bugchecking :D

I caught a bunch of restarts.

After my phone unexpectedly restarted once, I let it sit on the lockscreen, and started a logcat. The phone froze for approximately 10 seconds, then restarted. I believe this happened after I unlocked it, while on the homescreen.

Result: http://pastebin.com/rqkkAssa

This next set of restarts can be reproduced by repeatedly entering and exiting Developer Options, and Accessibility, alternating (these were the only two settings that I entered, since I experienced the initial restart). Also, I experienced one freeze, until I had to pull the battery.

Results: http://pastebin.com/fzXFAABW and http://pastebin.com/05fqdfTR

Freeze/batterypull: http://pastebin.com/zn9vy7SE

This particular error happened just after a restart. The phone booted, as normal, sat on the lockscreen. I put my finger on the lock ring, and the phone vibrated for approx. 10 seconds (while frozen on the lockscreen), then restarted.

Result: http://pastebin.com/qAzr1T1m

These were all recorded on an Inspire 4g, aospX AR31, full wipe, Inspiremod, stock kernel, nothing restored with TiBU.
[HTC Inspire 4G] stavros3006:
It would be more clear and of great help to existz if you pointed out which version of the ROM you're using. :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] nhshah7:
Ex - thank you and great work! Downloading now then flashing away :)

Have you made any head-way on the Maps issue? (or had a chance to look at it yet?)
[HTC Inspire 4G] dskina:
Oops! Thanks!

Edited original post.
[HTC Inspire 4G] sebo1084:
I would wipe again then reinstall. Make sure you wipe /system as well in mounts and storage. I always see a difference compared to when I don't wipe /system. There are also scripts around that can do this and more things concerning wiping. This would be my first step. Then reproduce.

I have always used Android Revolution's "SUPER WIPE" (download, main thread) to wipe before I flash new ROMs. It's been rocking for me, no problem at all.
[HTC Inspire 4G] dskina:
Ok, so I think that I narrowed the chance of a controlled restart happening.

I performed a full wipe (wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition, wipe dalvik cache, format /system; for all intents and purposes). I reflashed AR31, along with Inspiremod.

From the initial boot, I repeatedly entered Developer options and Accessibility approx 15 times, all while the cpu was at stock speed (1036 MHz). All was well and operating normally, i.e. no restart.

I then immediately entered Performance, bumped the max cpu freq. to 1344, exited Performance. The phone froze for approx. 5 seconds, then restarted.

Result: http://pastebin.com/E65KfpQ3

I was also able to reproduce it: http://pastebin.com/FWp1yPL7

This may be a fluke with my particular phone (given that the problem only happens when oc'd), but anyone is free and encouraged to reproduce it ;)

Info: Inspire 4G, aospx AR31, full wipe , Inspiremod, stock kernel, nothing restored with TiBU.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Rakkesh27:
Exitz I did a full wipe before flashing AR31. Do I need to do it again?
[HTC Inspire 4G] harpo1:
Each phone handles OCing differently from one ROM to another. Try lowering your CPU max freq by one step or do like I do and run it at stock freqs. I don't feel there's a need to OC with this ROM it runs smooth as butter without over clocking it.
