If you go to this link: [MOD][ICS] SGS3 Touchwiz 5.0 + Apps + LWP + Widgets (v.4.0.0.3) you'll see that I've already done that.

What I want is a little bit different. Dzo already answered to my question.

Thanks once again dzo.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] iamelton:
it's an update as long as u r changing from aurora to aurora..

it's a new installation when u switch from another rom (miui, cm7) to aurora..

aurora 4.0 has 139,913,364 bytes, while aurora 4.1 has 139,915,427 bytes..

so they are definitely different..

(even if they have exactly the same byte size, still doesnt automatically mean that they are the same..

have to do md5 or sha-1 hashes to verify..)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] demolition23:
Is there any tutorial and scripts for init.rc ??

@DZO

Pls put old change log to quote or code. 1st post its HUGE!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] A.C.A.B.:
I have tested this new version and its very smooth as the previous ones.

I did noticed some improvements here:

- Able to mount USB without disable USB Debbuging

- No need to install old wpa_suplicant in order to have wifi access

The auto-brightness is set for very low value. If this could be a bit brighter would do better.

Shame that not possible of using MMS with data off.

I'm sure one day DZO will make this a reality :good:

I wanted to use data statistics, but I can't choose the data usage cycle. I think it is a bug, the button is missing :(

Also, I think the buttons in Finnish could be changed to ON/OFF like they did in portuguese, it looks bad the way it is.

I want to update to 4.1 but i cant make the full download. Already download 5 or 6 times the rom but the file is never full 133someting.mb... after that wifi crash but stays blue but have no net conection ... please help... sometimes i have to reinstall the sd card but dont know why! Coult it be an sd card related problem?

Why the download file has a different sizes in code aurora and sorceforge?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] PuntPT:
The sourceforge rouds the size to others results, but the size is the same in google project and sourceforge.

Yes, as much as I love finnish I have to admit that sometimes finnish translations just dont work.

I would change it by myself if I know how.

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] JoseRebelo:
If you are downloading from sourceforge, have you trider from googlecode? Or the opposite.

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] JoseRebelo:
Ignore the size. Check the MD5 or sha1 with HashTab, for example, if you are on Windows.

@dzo, I found the source for android.policy.jar, I think. Could you give me some directions on how to compile it? Can I compile it with just the framework_base?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] sr21:
That is from touchwiz mod.

I've reported that before.

I already changed from MTP to Mass Storage and the problem persists.

I'll format my sd card, but that shouldn't be the solution, let me see if it solve the problem.

Maybe the mediascanner problem came back again.

---

Another issue (already reported) is the over heating. When I start to do normal stuff in the phone (open agenda, phone, messaging, etc) the phone became hot, like I was playing a 3D game during 30 minutes. :S

The phone stays more hot in the bottom. I don't know if the processor is near that area or not.

This will damage the battery very fast.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] fjsferreira:
Mediascanner and gallery working properly here. Maybe a sdcard problem? :S

Temperatures 35-45ºc are pretty normal, and the phone feels hot indeed, but this happens with all the ROMs I have ever tested. Normally, manufacturers recommend limits of 10ºC-55ºC (the user manual also states those values), but those are for ambient temperatures, in that case, the battery would be even hotter, so 35ºC-45ºC is safe I'm assuming... :D
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] JoseRebelo:
Phone was stopped on the table and just rebooted out of nowhere. Crash log is attached, hope it helps.

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] fjsferreira:
Dzo, you removed init.rc support in that kernel, correct? Was it deliberate? It didn't seem to create problems :-s

Edit - after all, the script support was not removed, it was the permissions of the init.d folder that were changed with the update. Fixed now.

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dzo:
The battery capacity is not accurate and is affected by temperature and current consumption. Leave the phone for an hour and see if the battery graph levels off. If it doesn't, you probably have an app holding a wakelock and keeping the phone awake.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] vlc_marcos:
my graph is like this, it can stay all day at 83% and when i stay 5 min doing something on web it goes down 25 or 40% in 5 min using the 3g on taptalk or browing. is possible to change the power of the antena?

Although 24h is selected it shows up in 12h mode in the upper bar.

If I try to change it to 12h mode system.ui crashes a couple of times and the upper bar is gone until I change it back to 24h mode

Hope you can take a look at this and thanks again for such a great job with our phone

so far not a single issue found after 24+ hours on v4.1..
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dzo:
Well, I don't think Qualcomm are going to support 4.1 on msm7x30/8x55 so it would have to be AOSP.

I've uploaded a new update, the changelog is in the first post but as well as fixing the gallery crash, I had a look at the camera and found out what the blue line at the top of the preview is.It's a brightness indicator and it was being controlled by dpad buttons which we don't have. I changed it to use volume up/down and it works fine. I also disabled continuous autofocus for the video camera because it seemed to continuously focus on random things. Now it will stay focussed on the last thing you focussed on with the still camera. Anything more than a few meters away will be focussed at infinity anyway so this makes the video camera much more usable.

I'm going away tomorrow for just over a week on yet another holiday (windsurfing in Fiji) so don't expect any updates for a while.

p.s. update1a is the same as update1 but it doesn't beep when you use the volume keys for the camera.

an issue about mp4 file formats

Hi guys, i would like to report an issue about playing mp4 format file types in aurora 4.1, anyway i did not test it in 4.0 also.

i have video files that i recorded it with my u8800 via terramino's elite rom in mp4 file format. Files are stored in sdcard/DCIM/

when i try to play mp4 files 5-6 sec later u8800 gives a reset

i tried several times and same issue happened each time also i try with different players mobo player, aurora's own player etc.

Are there anyone to comfirm this issue?

(Sounds a bit like Jar Jar...)

Thank you dzo, for the update and enjoy Fiji. I know we have not seen it locally for some time, but that fireball in the sky is normal. Don't get burned.

May I ask that you revisit the video cam focus mod you have made in 4.1.1, when you return, as regardless of the focus of the still camera, for me, everything shot on video is out of focus. Especially indoors.

Safe travels.

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] soumen08:
I think we are at a point in the development of this ROM that everything works great(not just fine, thank you dzo :good: ) and now, we can crib about a few small things :silly:

The battery life - While the phone does terrific battery when idle etc, it consumes a lot of battery while on voice calls (these are 2g voice calls).

All the governors apart from smartass seem to make the phone unbearably laggy after its been idling for a while.

When you have a device specced out with a fairly large battery for its class, you expect battery life to be completely not a problem which is unfortunately not the case.

Is there something we can do about this (like maybe undervolting the kernel) or something?

EDIT: I figured out that undervolting wont help much since the major loss of battery seems to be while on calls and the CPU shouldnt actually be consuming too much power in that state anyway! So, any ideas anyone?

You can try changing composition type from dyn to gpu, I have some improvement with this, but not as much as in older 2.x versions of Aurora, where it would really make a big difference... right now, you won't notice much improvement because this ROM has the smoothest UI ever, even with dyn.
