Hello everyone, the twitter account of Huawei sent to me these above link for wi-fi module sources:

http://www.huaweidevice.com/cn/downloadCenter.do?method=toDownloadFile&flay=software&softid=NDExMTU=

They have sent to me the kernel .35, but i've a question, the kernel .35 is compatible with Jelly Bean to fix the wi-fi?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Djuganight:
What Wi-Fi fix?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] fjsferreira:
I think every dev knows about that...
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Djuganight:
I'm using this rom the past days (v21) and sometimes I pick up the phone and it turn itself off.

It’s happening quite often actually.

It’s also very hard to make a good quality photo without being all shaken.

With MIUI V4 photos are just great and steady.

Does anyone else have this symptoms?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] lemonade747:
Miuiv4 is great, except ram issue, sometimes my phone is frozen when taking photo, i really dont know why, i have already set Multitasking and Performance Setting, enable Swap, kill all processes, but still like that, free ram is always about 100mb. Give up now :confused: GOD
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Djuganight:
just quit using MIUI because the wi-fi is extremely slow, specially if we are far from the router.

My router is in ground floor and in first floor with MIUI is just impossible to open a web page, specially if have many graphics. Just stucks.

With Aurora the process is much more fluid.

Photo quality isn't that good either in Aurora.

If we could replace aurora cam settings by MIUI V4 this would be a 100% win ;)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] forumber2:
All of the ROMs of MIUIv4 for U8800 are already using aurora camera drivers & configs :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Djuganight:
I belive that.

but why photos taken with MIUI V4 are so superior?

I have just restored my MIUI backup to show you the differences.

Se the photos taken minutes ago with both roms:

AURORA

Uploaded with ImageShack.us

Uploaded with ImageShack.us

Uploaded with ImageShack.us

Uploaded with ImageShack.us

MIUI V4

These are all photos straight from the device.

Now tell me, same libs or not, can't you see the differences?

And these were indoor. Outdoor the difference is massive!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dark_vader:
Nice subject Djuganight. Let's discuss here i already notice that Aurora have problems on indoor photos blurred and poorly focused even on outdoor.

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] zazza8:
Go to /system using some file manager, then open build.prop using some text editor and find a line that says debug.composition.type=dyn.

Replace dyn with gpu (it should look like this: debug.composition.type=gpu) then save the file and reboot your phone.

Why my Aurora Rom has ezet kernel?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] fjsferreira:
You installed ezet's tweaked kernel.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Djuganight:
This is a backup I have just restored to test and compare some things.

How do I revert to dzo and is dzo better?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] fjsferreira:
Ezet kernel is the same as dzo, but has some useful additions, more governors, and stuff. You won't see any difference. To revert to dzo's kernel, download latest update from dzo and copy boot.img to image folder on the phone.

Doesn't MIUI have its own camera app? Try taking both pictures with the same app.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dzo:
OK, I'll take a look at it. Have you tried changing the "scene detection" option in snap camera. Also bear in mind that not all u8800s have the same camera sensor so other phones may behave differently to yours.

Hi friend,

i read what u are claming about blurry pics..I am not sure for miui cam cause i never tested but this is an example of dzo's snap cam on aurora.Really satisfied with its sharpness even in bad lightning conditions. Yes i'm promoting dzo:)) just 1.66 usd and dzo's snap cam is highly recommended.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] ericmaxman:

Hi Dzo,

Thanks for you reply, now i believe the problem probably is my camera sensor, so is there any way to load the camera libs in Aurora ver4 to work on Aurora v5 ? My camera really good with Aurora v4 (i'm OK with the green line in the thumbnail).

Thank you so much !

Hi, i have the same problem.

http://jpeg.cz/images/2013/05/03/Bb64i.png
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Djuganight:
Hey m8,

That is a nice photo, but without testing others you will never know.

I don't think that this has to do with the cam app, althought the app may have a slight influence on it, buts this is not the case.

Native cams in Aurora and MIUI are the same (standard ICS cam) and I also use Camera 360 and Native HuaweiCam.

Just been testing with Aurora V4 and photos have the same issue. Looks like the have a blue filter on top making the color not being real and the image geting very white, like extreme exposure.

I really would like to use this roms and the new CM10 but I do give a lot importance to the photo/video quality as I often am in the street with my kids and don't have my digital camera with me so the phone is the salvation therefore needs to make good photos.

Last week I went to the park with them and made a lot of photos and they were just plain bad, just not to say something else...

I had to put manipulate the photos with a photo editor in my PC but the results are never good.

Could be drivers or something but if MIUI V4 uses the sames drivers/libs as Aurora I don't get it.

Regards

P.S. Your photo is indeed very good and just fell like to have 2 or 3 of those hot chocolates ;)

Can you make a couple more shots, from outside and inside please

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Frenik:
To add to the troubleshooting questions, can anyone offer suggestions to try and track down high battery usage by the system?

Running v5.0_U20 and everything seems stable. Some times it runs 24 hours with minimal usage.

However on occasion with the same usage pattern, I get very high battery usage and am having trouble pinpointing whats causing it.

For example, the last time it happened, in 4 hours battery dropped 50%. The usage listed Android System as 73% of that usage.

Previously it has listed Android System as the main culprit as well, but that doesn't help me much in finding whats actually causing it.

Any thoughts?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dark_vader:
Yes, this is only part of rom which can be improved battery drain. I'm still have high battery usage mainly screen and connection, on idle battery drops 10% on every 6-8hours. In that field CM 10.1 is way better i confirmed it myself already...

In terms of wifi never had any problem with this rom but I can not really criticize since i not consider myself hardcore user of wireless on our phone.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] jeremysherriff:
The main thing causing such behaviour is a kernel module (eg driver) failing to load or unload. A good example is the GPS sensor, failing to unload after making a facebook post that includes your location. I've also experienced the same behaviour with the bluetooth modules, camera sensor, accelerometer (rotation), and of course wifi. The worst situation I encountered was taking a photo that included location data, and both the camera and gps modules failed to unload. Generally, they get stuck in a loop trying to unload and never let the phone go to sleep.

A reboot resolves it, and because it's a one-off situation the underlying cause is only really of interest in terms of understanding whether your phone or usage patterns means that a particular sensor or module is responsible more often than others. This will allow you to change your behaviour or watch out for particular situations where it might increase the likelihood. However there's not likely to be a fix, except maybe clearing cache/data on a particular problem system app.

I use BetterBatteryStats (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1179809) to help identify the problem module, and it also has the ability to help bring the situation to your attention early using the Watchdog feature or the Active Monitoring feature - but I have never had much luck with that ;)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] nayneshdev:
And don't forget the GPS issues. For example try any gps speedometer app and you will come to know that you get wrong speed values that often take some time to show correct value, moreover loosing locks frequently making it impossible to use for continuous navigation.

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] duartemv:
I've updated to 5.20, and overall performance seems better than 4.a1.

Th phone is faster, even when low on memory. 4.a1 showed serious performance issues when memory was below 60Mb, and with 5.20 it has good performance when it is around 45Mb.

The only issue I have to report is the reboot I get when I turn on Wifi. It happens most of the times. The phone just freezes and then reboot.

But when it reboots, the wifi is already on, and works really nice! And I can also turn off/on wifi several times that it won't reboot.

I don't know why it does that, and I didn't notice if it was due to a combination of apps. I was using any when I turned on wifi, nor had GPS connected, nor plane mode.
