Atmel seems to work just perfect with the latest fix, I can even use my phone when it's connected to a charger, before it went just crazy when connected. :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] riDDimann:
You've done it again dzo. Wifi works just like 4.1 now ;)

I'm also amazed at how smooth this now is. Animations on 4.1 with fps-fix used to look a lot smoother, but not anymore.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] sbasil:
I had no problems with WiFi before, but the latest update seems to make it even better. Ping times are only a fraction of what they were before. Great work as always. Don't you people forget to hit the thanks button of dzo's, without him you'd still be stuck at stoneage with your u8800. :)

5.0 update2 is quite stable with wifi.. turned on/off several times without any problem..

also no other issue found since i upgraded to 5.0

recommend to replace 4.1 or earlier versions for daily use..

OK, last update for today! Here's an update with a different version of the wifi userspace daemon. It should fix the problem of not disconnecting correctly but may have other problems. One thing is that the signal strength doesn't seem to work except when first connecting.

I also updated the version number.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] bassdrum01:
I will not update to that iet! I only will if it appens again.

Hi Dzo:

I am new to this forum since I have just purchased a second-handed IDEOS X5. I would like to try the Aurora ICS rom into my phone, but I have to take a hold since the default CPU frequency has been set to 1GHz. I prefer not to overclock my phone due to the battery consumption and the lifespan of the phone. Isn't it possible if you could make version that runs on 800Mhz/122Mhz

as default?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] hung.ngomanh:
You can use setCPU to set the default 800Mhz/122Mhz if you want.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Tcm9669:
Why? Just install setCPU and set it 800/122 there.

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] jegor011:
I installed Update 3 late last night. WIFI was connecting really fast. I use my X5 like a alarm clock, and on first second of ringing it rebooted. Luckily I'm a light sleeper.

When I arrived to work I switched WIFI on, and after five hours, when I tried to turn WIFI off and make a call it rebooted again.

I've never had this many reboots with any earlier ROM like with 5.0 for past several days. 3-5 a day on average.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] valsam:
How is the batterry life with version 5.0 compared to aurora 4.1 update1 because in version 4.1 ,my phone did'nt last even a day and thats the reason i switched back to stupid official gingerbread!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Unicorn9x:
confirmed, my phone reboot today when the alarm clock ringing, and I skipped my class :crying: it's on update test 1 when it's reboot so I will test this bug again after updated to update 3.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] goutham_krishna:
Battery Performance is much better compared to 4.1 release... however we do have WIFI problems.. the phone restarts if we try to turn it off through Notification Bar... In settings WIFI turn off works fine....
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] n0_xQuZe:
For me WiFi now works well and i have gotten no reboots at all even when enabling disabling from notification bar. The ui is silky smooth but i have enabled init.d and have put some scripts in addition to changing OOM priorities. No problems for me at all, even Google Now works well except voice search but i don't need that anyways. As for the alarm bug, i don't know cause i use custom alarm app. Battery seems to be OK but i can't tell yet.

Thanks dzo! Keep improving for all us ORD freaks out here :D
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] fjsferreira:

is atmel problems solved with the last update?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Mach III:
Atmel is working just fine, but still some reboots caused by wifi driver.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] LEFTKOYL:
After some time with wifi open it stops responding and I have no net connection at the end.

Lot of random reboots when closing wifi.

I have installed the update 5.0.3 test.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Dyzanel:
Same here. I had to switch back to v4.1. I found that v5 takes more memory than v4.1. In v4.1 I have free memory around 60 MB or more but with 5.0 it's only 35 - 45MB.

Anyway great work dzo.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] fjsferreira:
You should have reverted to update 2, I'm having not a single wifi problem with it, almost for a day. Update 3 DZO stated it might fix some stuff with wifi but break others.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Tcm9669:
Wifi is okay, only thing is that since I updated Wifi still get's stuck (when I get out of the wifi area, it still stays on) AND it even when I'm in range sometimes it just goes grey and it's as good as no wifi. I had a fix in 4.1a (I opened a thread about it) but now that fix doesn't seem to be working.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dangerous_johnh:
You don't have that wifi toggle problem with update2, where you can't turn wifi on without rebooting? I seem to remember I had that, had to go back to V5.0.

Totally agree,this is a challenge since this ics project starts.When i make a voice recording either native recorder or an app's recorder,phone's all volumes immediately gets too low even it seems normal under volume section.Dzo,would you please handle this?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] j0a0:
You can find it on the first post under version 2.09 description.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dzo:
OK, try the attached. Can you make sure phone call audio works properly, I don't have a sim in my x5 at the moment.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] fjsferreira:
Dzo, is this fix based on update 3? Can you make it based on update 2? Because wifi is perfect in update 2 but I had reboots disabling wifi in update 3...

Edit - or is the only thing needed for this sound fix the audio*.so from the be folder?

Edit 2 - I went ahead and just replaced the audio*something.so in lib/hw folder and rebooted and it seems to be fixed indeed... after four or five tests, audio from multimedia after voice searches is working properly and at full volume.

Only two more questions today Dzo, softkey lights when screen is in auto brightness, always turn off after using the camera or any other app that changes screen brightness, like moon reader. That didn't happened before, so maybe you could fix it?

Also, does turning on lpa decode cause any harm? It really improved headphone volume, and system seems to be more responsive, especially when using the internet... before, audio would sometimes crackle when navigating browsing heavy pages, and with lpa enabled it doesn't. I assume its because its not software based so doesn't consume CPU?

Edit 3 - after 30 mins testing, I find lpa decode true really makes internet browsing much faster when listening to music at the same time.

5.0u2 was going really well for me (I don't use wifi generally anyway, the hidden SSID at work sucks my battery flat), but something weird happened and the battery either collapsed or ran flat fast, and won't charge. It was a new battery (replaced last week) so it is most likely the problem, but it might just be the end of the X5 for me - another battery is easy enough but it's 3-5 days for delivery so I might have to buy a new device :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dream4:
Wow,it works dzo.Thank you so much:)

What i observe with this last modifications:

Good:

-Atmel is really nice

-My non-working radio is workin now.

-Finally,brightness is under my control now.It is saving settings.

Bad:

Unfortunately classic bug is still here.Although wifi loading/not loading bug is gone,even if the wifi seems ok,it stopped opening pages like no connection after a while:(

Now it rebooted dunno if it is related to wifi:(

Edit:I'm using wifi fix manager app.dunno if this affects your modifications on wifi.

Thanks for your works on x5.

HI Dzo:

I am using Aurora ICS 4.0.4 v4.1 right now. It is great!!!

However, I am bit miss some of the features appeared on 2.3 stock rom, such as "power-save mode" and "fast boot"

Will you add/port these features in near future?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] skyseel:
dzo, I'm posting again in case you missed, this is one of the issues that kept me annoying thru all the Aurora versions:

when I talk to another person (also using U8800), via speakerphone, we both get this terrible echo. Any word I say I'll hear it 3 times and then beeping at the end. I have tried options "Use echo cancelling microphone" and "Use headset microphone" but the problem persists. When you can, please take a look at this. Many thanks.

Hello.

This is my first ever costum Tom install on my U8800.

Um to version 5u1 I had the wifi problem of not connecting, the high usage battery, Bluetooth not pairing with headphone and the text corruption.

With 5u2 I can now connect to wifi and it seems battery life is longer.

Still have 3 problems I detected:

- wifi after a while of connected and downloading will lock the phone and reboot.

- text corruption still occurs.

- Bluetooth still not connecting.

Thanks for all your hard work on this.

Best regards.

---------- Post added at 04:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:33 PM ----------

Just installed u3 test 2 and now I saw another thing.

Still the same problems but wifi seems to stop data first and then phone lock and then reboot.

Btw I have installed the custom space partition of 360mb + 1.4gb

I also tried with a custom kernel 3.08 and aurora 4.1 and don't seem to have this wifi problem, but phone seems slower and battery is shorter.

Thanks again.

So this was not a battery problem, but rather the phone ran so flat that it wouldn't accept charge.

After several wrong-turns on the cause and fix, my wife has a working phone again.

Caused by a combination of things possibly?

- vol key wake mod

- phone in wife's handbag, with vol key pressed by something

- ......for 8+ hours

- ROM seems not to shut down the phone in low battery conditions - can anyone confirm?

I'm guessing, but I suspect that the normal "bzzzt - Your phone will shut down due to low battery" message either didn't happen, or was somehow stopped from completing its shutdown by the volume key being engaged.

Edit: dream4, this is not a different release, the only thing worth mentioning is the volume wake feature. As it's not an option I don't know if dzo wants it at his release. I hope he can make it an option though... Since there are people with broken power button (mine is almost dead) i thought that it would be usefull. Sorry if cause any problem. If dzo has any problem with that I can drop all the links from his thread...And of course if he want the modified file for the volume wake feature I am more than glad to give it to him to include it at future releases.

please bring back the leds like they were in v1.5 and before. they turned off when using only touch screen. its nice when watching movies/ browsing / gaming .

saves more battery and its cool! hehe

in v1.7 i had to turn on auto brightness (kinda working) to light up the leds.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] eng.stk:
I think this v1.7 way is better, it's confusing pressing the touch keys without seeing them, that's why DZO implemented auto brightness and it works as it should be (with half brightness in keys). If you want full brightness and keys turn off, select a fixed brightness level.

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] MaRcIuPT:
I didn't say I want the keys off all the time. in 1.5 and before they act like official 2.3. they're on but long enough to working.

and then they turn off automactily. no need to select auto brightness or not.

I think its more annoying watching videos or gaming and the keys are there for nothing

if there's a way to choose very nice. if dont then this way its ok

and btw setting a fixed brightness level dont turn off the keys. but that we dont want to.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dzo:
Which build.props are you changing because some of the code checks these. name, model and brand are probably ok but don't change board or device.

I find that graphics performance in the UI generally is good but in two very particular cases it suffers from slowdowns, you can try it yourself: the "People" app has very choppy scrolling, and in the stock launcher the animation when you press the button to show all your apps and widgets is choppy most of the time.

I don't know where the problem lies and it's probably hard to diagnose, but is it possible to expect any optimizations to solve this from dzo? Or can this only be fix in a Qualcom Aurora release?
