dzo, first of all, thanks for your good work. u are the man who cannot take what he deserve for this big effort

but there are so many people who are suffering from Wifi connection breaks problem.

for me, in version 4, everything was fine but when u uploaded version 4.1 (and also update 1 and 1a), our wifi connection has started to act in strange way.

there is no problem if we set 'keep wifi on during sleep' option to 'Never(increases data usage)'. wifi can properly connect again when we unlock the screen.

but if we set it to 'Always', after not using phone for a while or keeping it in sleep mod, wifi seems still working but actually, it is not working .!

dzo can u look at this problem ? thanks in advance
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] ezet:
+1 This is the biggest issue with this rom. Unstable wifi. If you leave it always on sometimes it "locks" and you have no connection at all. This and sometimes that it takes 2-3 seconds to show the name of the contact on an incoming call but that's not a huge issue anyway. Volume keys issue has never occurred to me though.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Ozgurce:
@dzo can you take requests ? =)

We really hape if you add t-mobile theme system to your work so we can use the cm9 themes in it.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] fjsferreira:
I don't think this will or should be a priority for Dzo... most custom themes are hideous anyway, even when made by Samsung or Sony or HTC, let alone by some kid with Photoshop...

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Ozgurce:
Nope. I really like mattedblues for example. Or the popstyle https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.joshuas79.theme.poplife&hl=tr I'm using both of them on my Incredible S. And really like it. And there is uncoming theme "MIUIv4 for CM10". Its completely white based theme. http://fc08.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2012/238/3/c/miuiv4_for_cm10_by_zdunex25-d5b0ge3.png

So there is kids with paint, and designers with PS.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] iamelton:
have to agree with fjsferreira.. adding cosmetic features to the ROM is not of high priority now (or any time imho)..
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] fjsferreira:
While I agree that a very low percentage of themes are fine, they don't justify the work and time that goes on implementing a complete theme engine in a ROM that still has some few but important stability issues. Anyway, CM9 or even CM10 will almost certainly be available for our phone by the work of Blefish, and they'll have that.

i thought i have seen you on other forums then incredible s :P
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] emre.yv:
I want to report a really weird problem. At first i thought the voice coming from the back speaker was getting lower, but after the 3. time, i realised that sometimes the voice from like videos,songs,games and etc. was coming from the front speaker instead of the back speaker. Shouldn't it be only for speaking? What could be wrong?It's completely random just like the old volume button problem,no timing at all.

I'm using 4.1 u1 with the latest version of Touchwiz 5 theme. :confused:

... for the HTC One S he got from XDA. So unless you own a One S and you're really looking forward to apply some dzo-ness to it, don't let your pants get all hot over nothing.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dzo:
Yes, I felt I needed to do some work on the One S since they so kindly gave it to me so I built a camera library for it. Don't worry though, I haven't deserted you and it has given me some ideas about how to improve the u8800 camera lib.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] fjsferreira:
I get that sometimes. I think it has to do with voice search. After some voice searches, the media sound from games and music start to come through from front speaker and I have to do a call and put it on speakerphone for it to get fixed...

Also, voice search when not in wifi never works :( always gives server error. With wifi, it works almost instantaneously.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] casca:
Ffs... We don't even have ICS working flawlessly and you guys speak of jellybean...really?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] emre.yv:
I don't even have Voice Search on my phone. After trying it with my 3G package, i've completely deleted it from /system/app with Root Explorer. I think it's about something else :rolleyes:
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] ColdFire InOx:
Dzo, would be great if you could read the last couple of pages on the volume keys bug!

Thanks
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] riDDimann:
Don't worry mate. I wish people would supply more information when they reported problems. You can't very well use what bit of spare time you have to guess what's wrong.

I don't think you can expect a custom ROM to be 100% perfect. I also believe that some of the weirdness is actually due to AOSP-code and could be fixed in JB. If what CAF supplies works fairly well, why not do a JB ROM? You have to admit JB is a bit of a Windows 7 to ICS's Vista ;)

You know what, that's true. I just tried voice searching some things to see if it works over cellular (it's really slow but for me it works over GPRS, so you/your provider probably has some network issues) and the media sound comes out the front of the phone! Plugging and unplugging headphones resolves it as well.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Phanatic:
I'm facing this same problem :confused:

I thought it has something to do with "phone on" time, as I have woke few times when phone have vibrating on the table.

BUT, now I have read your comments about it and

Voice search might explain it, because Finland got voice search/ navigation just few days earlier than problems started.. I have to test it..:)

Thanks guys, you might solve the rootcause for me...:good:
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] riDDimann:
I've tested a couple more times. It always switches after the second search completes.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] emre.yv:
I don't even have Voice Search installed on my phone, next time i'm gonna try to get a log :rolleyes:
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] casca:
I don't expect it to be 100% perfect, that is almost impossible to achieve, but i believe it should be rock solid.

If by evolving to 4.0 and 4.1 with new CAF meant a buggier rom, then IMHO it should probably go back to a previous version or maybe try and check out what was broke with the new versions firstly.

Regarding the comparison between ICS and JB, I don't think you can compare any of them with Vista lol :) maybe a 7 Home with a 7 Ultimate :D

BTW, and just to keep things straight here...

DZO, I LOVE YOUR WORK, EFFORT AND DEDICATED TIME TO THE U8800!

Do not get me wrong! I would actually like an opinion on my long post on page 684 if you can.

Older kernels

Hi all!

Is it possible to use the more recent versions of Aurora (such as 4.1) with the older 2.6.35 kernel back from the Aurora 2.04 release? I seem to have no luck with WIFI using the 3.0.8 kernels in many recent ROMs.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] omernaeem17:
I just got myself a u8800 añd installed and updat

ed to aurora ics 4.1a...I am wondering why task managers are showing total ram as 364mb rwther than 512
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] tminus3:
Just a quick question from a custom ROM newby; is the gallery crash/reboot still supposed to be an issue? I installed DZO's latest ICS version with the update yesterday, but my U8800 reboots almost every time I play a video from the gallery.

*edit* youtube crahes and reboots the phone as well. Thought that updating the app solved it, but got two reboots just now.

Should I try to reflash the rom+update?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] nioman:
This is normal. Some of the ram is reserved by the system and will not be shown by task manager. It is the same with all the roms.

Hello,

My Huawei U8800 with the last version of DZo´s Auroara ICS 4.1, start to crash in the web camera. If i take i picture i saw the picture in the display but he record a black image, and in most cases stop responding. In video recording i saw the recording with lot´s of rain.

The is any fix to this kind of problem?

Thanks,

MigasMike
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] emre.yv:
Just to try, i installed Voice Search on my phone again, and just like you guys said, after 2. or 3. Search or Voice to Text, the default speaker immeditely changes. There is three ways fix it: making a call and using hands free, plugging-unplugging an headset or rebooting the phone. This is kinda annoying :(
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] riDDimann:
Sadly, my phone crashed while I was recording a video yesterday (the one time I actually wanted to :eek:). After 20 seconds it just freezed and rebooted after a few seconds. mmcblk0p7 was empty. Where should I look for crash info should this happen again?

Try deleting the camera app data. Some settings are a bit... peculiar. I played around a little after what happened yesterday and found that e.g. setting the ISO-mode to "ISO auto" makes pictures either black with very faint stripes or show the actual image, but in a very dark brown tone with a lot of noise. And every third or so picture the app will freeze.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] pipoawas:
Yes, really. Why insist on an older OS when a state-of-the-art newer one, the next big step, is coming closer and closer to us ( and adopted to every new model by the way)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] casca:
Next big step and state of the art?

Come on man...by the way you say it it kind of makes me think it's a giant evolution like it was from 2.3 to 4.0, and it's not! It's 4.0.4 to 4.1

If the difference was that huge, it would move to something greater then 4.1 like it has always been with the other ones.

I'm also an Android enthusiast, but I'm also being realistic here.

We are lucky to have an ICS version already otherwise we wouldn't even have anything else besides Gingerbread.

If everyone keeps pushing DZO to make an everyday usable JB version, he will probably just back off and quit this one.

Afterwards you will simply have an incomplete ICS and buggy JB rom, and no one to keep up developing it.

If we are greedy, we will pay the price IMHO.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] ColdFire InOx:
Just letting it out here so it's easier for you to see ;)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] faekplastik3s:
Version bumps have little to do with the significance of the update. The fact that is a 0.1 bump does not mean it has any less significant new features than a 1.0 bump, especially with the way Android arbitrarily decides to do them. Even more, every version before 4.0 had been a 0.1 bump (except from 1.1 to 1.5 and 1.6 to 2.0), and the reason 4.0 had that huge bump was more related to the merge with Honeycomb than anything else.

4.1 brings significant new features, runs on every 4.0 device, and more than that, almost every new feature focuses on being faster and more efficient than 4.0, thus being well worth the upgrade especially for older devices such as ours. In fact, it's probably the most solid update yet, and fixes issues that have been in Android since it was created.

Also, Aurora is hardly incomplete. It's a great ROM, stable, adequate for daily use, and the few quirks remaining are either inconsequential, don't affect everyone, or are just annoying and not critical. It's also miles and away more stable and efficient than any official ROM yet. That's a lot better than most other ROMs on even popular devices. dzo did us a great service with Aurora, but him abandoning the U8800 will probably have little to do with requests to update to JB and more with just growing disinterested with the device and moving to a new one.

Of course, that being said, I would hope that he would keep supporting our device, even if only with infrequent updates. If you wish the same, maybe try to speak your mind with a donation instead of a forum post.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] casca:
I honestly don't agree with that, but it's just my opinion.

I obviously respect yours, but Google went from 2.3.x to honeycomb 3.x , and it was the biggest jump ever on android either on coding level or user interface, so please don't tell me the numbers don't matter or that the google guys are giving random numbers to their Android releases.

I've had several devices with every single android version there is from 1.6 to 4.1 and that is why I'm still saying that the differences are very small between ics and jb.

Also you say that Aurora is ready for daily use, but in several posts you can read issues with the latest Aurora 4.x releases. I for instance was forced do downgrade to 3.1 with update 5 to be able to use my phone properly once again due to loss of network while charging/idle and I'm sure it had something to do with the coding on the newer Caf versions.

In my case I don't ask more.

3.x is stable for daily use in my case.

But so is 4.x for a lot of people, and not for me.

About wanting the same, I obviously want every device to get the latest releases.

I simply will not comment your sugestion, to make donation instead of posting.

I'm done exposing my POV, and I respect everyones opinion although I might not agree with it.

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] ezet:
I can confirm that the Wifi is stable on 3.1 update5. No reboots, connecting just fine and the UI is smooth using apex launcher. So there has to be some change on the latest CAF release that messed with the wifi. I'll stick with 3.1 for the time being :)

Yesterday after on long time with the officiall gb 2.3.5 i got fed up with it after loosing all my pictures and videos so i installed aurora,i am experiencing 2-3 problems and i wish someone could help me please!

The first and biggest problem i am having with aurora is that the music through the headphones has extreme bass that results in masive distortion,i have it even at minimum volume settings with no bass through the equalizer(powerAMP) especially the left headphone (on all 5 sets of headphones) i have bass distortion and the sound is like the inner speaker has tared or like when you turn "LOUDNESS ON"your car or home stereo when your already at your stereos sound limit,i have tryed almost every player and the result is the same i also tryed 5 sets of headphones (mostly good ones) and the problem still remains,i have also tryed beats audio and sound best but still the same result!
