Also the lock screen timeout doesn't seem to change when I change it. (settings / cyanogenmod / lockscreen / delay and timeout)

No biggie, but might be related to the other screen timeout issues.

Still working great otherwise :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] ezet:
Some things might be cyanogenmod related keep that in mind too since it's nightly build and there might be bugs.

Also i was thinking on how to port the camera from 2.6.35 to this kernel.

What i thought initially is to replace the 2.6.32 drivers/media/video/msm/msm_camera.c with the one from 2.6.35 and also do the same for msm_camera.h.

Kernel compiled fine and also booted with the latest liboemcamera.so. I've also compiled libcamera.so with the msm_camera.h provided from the 2.6.35 kernel.

Anyway then tried to open camera i got FC and i can't get anything from the logs.

If anyone has any suggestions on these they would be much welcomed. :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Loureiro:
without log is hard to track down the problem.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] fjsferreira:
Ezet, can you post the kernel with the new camera drivers? So we can investigate?

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] ksatta:
hmm... it could be debugged on the java side.

But have you tried to take com.android.camera.Camera from Huawei?

Then the last resort would be to baksmali Huawei's Camera class and diff it with AOSP or CM Camera class..

Just some things that come to mind.. Don't have time to work on this now, since I just released my first android app alpha version :)

Edit:

That's the important part:

E/AndroidRuntime( 1627): Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException

E/AndroidRuntime( 1627):	at com.android.camera.CameraSettings.<clinit>(CameraSettings.java:79)

So the exception is first thrown in CameraSettings, not Camera class. So if you try, try CameraSettings class from Huawei.. or both.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] ksatta:
I just realized that if the .so works with cm7 .35 then the problem isn't java-side.

The same .so compiled for .32 should work as you've tried.

I guess one way to debug would be adding kernel log messages to the .so source code.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] jeremysherriff:
Help? It seems quite a few apps in the Play market are "not compatible with your device" with this ROM installed. What's my best option for increasing compatibility? A build.prop tweak, or some magic app?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Loureiro:
Manage Applications - > ALL | Market -> Clear data & Cache
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] jeremysherriff:
Well, i just factory reset my phone with wipes of data, cache, dalvik etc..

And that's how I know I can't download many of my normal apps.

So it's not a cache / data thing.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Loureiro:
Did you really tried what I said? try and then give your feedback...
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] jeremysherriff:
Yes, i have cleared data on the Play app on my phone.

Did it probably 4 times last night, each time then going back in to the app and agreeing to the conditions etc etc.

The market web site still shows my phone as being "not compatible" with many apps. If I search for the same apps from the market app on my phone, they don't show up in search results.

I have waited till this afternoon (16 hours) in case it took some time for the market web site to update about device compatibility.

Can you check yours? One app is "pocket whip free" by LKM Productions: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...pocketwhipfree.activity&feature=search_result
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Loureiro:
Hmm I solved that incompatibility problem just wiping market.apk data, using geno's CM7.

btw, I'm using Aurora and can't install "pocket whip free", says that's not compatible.

It's getting a little offtopic. I suggest to start a new thread under QA section to discuss this and eventually find the solution.

cheers
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] jeremysherriff:
I'm doing some searching, i'm sure this topic has been covered with suggestions about editing build.prop and/or installing an app that somehow fools the market. If not on this ROM, then others. Thanks for the efforts!

Edit: OK, i have found all sorts of voodoo but nothing concrete: Clearing data for market ("play") as well as Google Services Framework, edits in build.prop for ro.product.model and ro.product.brand to use lowercase or uppercase for "u8800" and "huawei", fix permissions via recovery, and checking lcd density options. All have been reported to have mixed success, all have failed for me :)

In case you're wondering why i'm doing this, i normally restore apps via titanium abckup but have been having aweful battery drain and wakelock issues. So I factory reset and am loading apps the proper way. So far the battery is fantastic (12 hours, lots of 3g data and messing around, still over 60% remaining) so i believe it to be the right path, but am unable to get some of my apps back :D oh well..
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Tommixoft:
titanium backup is crap. very huge work for devs thou but many times it just fails.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] fjsferreira:
Titanium never failed me, and I've used it for more than 2 years... I use titanium all the time when coming back from Aurora, and battery doesn't suffer and no other problems have arised from that...

Don't blame titanium because it's one of the most mature, stable and reliable pieces of software in any mobile platform...

Sent from my U8800
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] jeremysherriff:
I'm certainly not blaming titanium, i'm well aware the issue is either one of my apps, or the data in one of the apps. Overall, my aim is to restore functionality using "standard setup" process, ie going to the market and installing the latest version, no data, complete with all market lnks etc.

I think I'm starting to see a pattern though, at least on this ROM. The wifi seems to lock into a scan cycle and it never exits, so wifi shows as running all the time even with screen off and the sleep policy set. No wakelocks to go with it, and it's just a guess at this point.

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] ksatta:
hmm.. Being an android app developer myself this seems a bit drastic.. I think if an app has too intrusive / annoying ads it's not worth using :) I probably won't be releasing my app with ads when it's finished, but I might buy some advertisements from admob or something :)

On the other hand if a great app has only an ad-based version, and no way to buy a version with no ads, then I understand why someone would disable the ads.

Just my opinion
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] ezet:
Heh, haven't thought this that way but if you ask any end user about if he likes having ads or no i strongly guess that more than 90% would reply no.

Developers have many means of making money other than ads. Two things i can think of really fast is having a donate version or a paid version with more features.

On the other hand consider that the amount of users capable of installing a custom rom would probably already know the app "AdFree Android" which does the exact same thing and already has 1 million plus downloads.

So what i'm trying to say here is either having this preinstalled or not doesn't make a big difference here :)

In conclusion if anyone really wants his ads back can do it by deleting /etc/hosts file :)

PS: So what sort of app are you coding btw? :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] chochweet:
superb rom........... thanks buddy...... keep up the good work

the rom is so smooth like butter
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] ksatta:
Yup, probably :)

Yeah having a paid app is the best way to go. I've just been thinking of ways to advertise the app when it's ready, then I'd be the advertiser. But my app is nowhere near final, so that's just some preliminary thoughts.

Lol I didn't know there's actually an app on Google Play that does this :D

You're right.

It's an app to listen to internet radio offline.. Not to advertise here or anything, this is the wrong section for that :)

There's a thread about it in the paid apps section: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1597174
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] ezet:
Ah nice! Having a free and a paid version like TuneIn Radio will fit your app for sure!

3 things a gotta say:

1.Thanks for updating the adreno driver, the video playback is really good now (h.264)

2. It appears that i'm suffering slow wi-fi speed.

3. The sims 3 and GTA3 now don't work T_T

This ROM is awesome, thank you for your work!

EDIT:I've been testing some games and, so far, only those 2 are having problems for me.

I m using this rom.. the problems I noticed

Frequent network loss on 3G mode

Wifi is unstable.. gets no transfers at times

Time for a better gallery app like miui or aurora

Battery is better but not what was expected from it... atleast the battery should last for 2 days with normal usage
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] ezet:
About slow wi-fi speed on what kind of network? I can test it only on my home router right now and it maxes out the speed. Please give a bit more info about this. Concerning those two games i don't have them but you can try with the old adreno drivers to see if they work. I'm attaching them here. Just flash over with CWM.

Yeap no wipes needed at all.

I am on 3g mode all the time haven't noticed something similar and i'm a very frequent viber talker so i would have noticed that.

About battery on what clocks? With normal use i get easily 2 days on 1024Mhz.

About gallery there are several free you can try from the market. I use QuickPic and it's the best imho. There is no need though to change anything in this rom since it's up to the user to customize it to his needs (app wise). :)

About wifi this only happens when waking from stand-by. Try setting your sleep policy to "Never sleep" or even try a free app from market called "Advanced Wifi Lock".

Changelog:

CM7.2 built on 2012-04-20

1) Merged PaulMilbank changes to kernel. Should give more batter time! Thanks PaulMilbank (tweaked governors, set smartassv2 as default at 1024Mhz, enabled sio).

2) Further improved kernel build. Even faster now!

3) Removed NFS & CIFS.

4) Several cherry-picks from code review.

5) Change I95c987f1: Toggling the flashlight from the lock/pattern/sim unlock screens (Goto CM settings to enable this. Similar to MIUI).

6) Change I4427e3f2: [bionic] Replace strlen() with ARMv7 optimized version

7) Several other picks to improve performance.

8) Replaced Mms.apk with the one that supports 160 chars on Greek, Portuguese etc.

9) Removed 11fps from /etc/init.d/ should give bit more battery. If you need it unlocked you got to put it back and reboot.

10) Removed unnecessary build.prop lines.

SIMLOCK

could you please help tell me what "LOCKED" means? How about RECOVERY/SIMLOCK?

Thanks!
[HTC EVO 3D] smokin1337:
Not sure what pvt means but you should be able to use revolutionary method to get s-off.

Locked means the bootloader is locked, need to use htc method to unlock it.

The Fastboot, Recovery, etc. are options fastboot puts the phone in fastboot, recovery boots the phone into recovery, not sure about simlock i have sprint so no sim card.

If you do revolutionary method do it FIRST before using htc method to unlock your bootloader otherwise you won't have s-off.

Here are 2 links to find out more about both methods:

http://revolutionary.io/

http://htcdev.com/bootloader
[HTC EVO 3D] Averell:
Thanks. But this raised my other noob questions: what's the difference between Revolutionary and HTCmethod? Aren't they both unlock the bootloader which will then allow me to install custom ROM?

(This is my 2nd android phone. The 1st one is Huawei U8800, and installing custom ROMs on that one was simple: replace recovery file with CWM ones, and use CWM to install custom ROMs. Is it more complicated with HTC phones?)
[HTC EVO 3D] smokin1337:
Htc Method allows you to flash roms only not kernels through recovery and you don't get s-off which gives you complete control over the device.

Revolutionary gives you s-off so you can flash custom kernels through recovery.
[HTC EVO 3D] PMGRANDS:
Anyone know what Image CRC is?
[HTC EVO 3D] zsibisi:
never mind, sorry, grabbed the wrong definition
[HTC EVO 3D] Averell:
So that means I should use Revolutionary only, not HTCmethod, or Revolutionary first then HTCmethod?

The problem i have is i need to upgrade to 2.3 now my phone checks as a V10D does this mean i can't install the V20x ROM's due to them not being compatible?

Ideally i wanted to keep with my stock ROM and just update but i installed CWM so i can't do that and looks like i'll need to flash to a non-carrier ROM which i have heard causes issues due to people removing all the stock apps from LG etc.

So can i even install the V20x's or are those a no go and how long before we get a nice clean near stock ROM with root because i'm really not a fan of the ICS look
[LG Optimus Black] Zaihanzainal:
1) i might be wrong, but i dont think it would be a problem if youre flashing up from v10(froyo) to v20(gb)

2) problems arising from custom roms are not directly caused form removing stock lg apps, usually it arises from the extensive tweaking and modifications the dev applies to make the rom better

3) if you want just a rooted stock v20 you could probably ask the devs nicely or sth since they based their own roms from the stock v20 (well most times) or you could prob try asking Nooby for his nandroid

4) if you want to install a custom rom but dont like the ics look there are a few options actually,

- Redy's Repack of the Official v20n

- Zeus's stock ui is pretty close to stock gb (sans the blue themed icons)

- There is also Achyut's Prada Themed Rom

That being, a campaign of Twitter and G+ posts to try and get some form of response from Google about the next OTA for the Galaxy Nexus, or at least some transparency on where they are up to with the release.

I am thinking a hashtag like #NexusOTA
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MS.:
Let's pretend i'm a big person at Android team. I can realease ICS 4.0.5 for you tomorrow, but it'll have nearly same issues as 4.0.3. Do you really want it? I don't.

Next version of ICS will be out as soon as it's ready!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] leonironchef:
I think what scottatron is saying is why the heck do they take so long...be transparent about at what stage of development they're up to and give us an estimate of when is ready...I mean a the whole premise of a Google phone is the continuing update and support, they can be more open and up front about it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Scottatron:
Pretty much spot on.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TiltedAz:
I agree, there are enough issues to warrant releases. And some regions have yet to get an OTA release. Seems odd given ICS was intended to simplify development by making it platform independent.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Here's the thing... Either you really care that much about being up to date on 4.0.3/4.0.4 instead of 4.0.2, and you just flash a custom ROM; OR you don't care that much and you should be happy with 4.0.2 and it'll be OTAd

as soon as it's ready

.

Chill. No one is going to do this and no one will listen. You think that Googlers are going to see a bunch of tweets and be like "omg I guess we should start coding this next OTA release! We'll stop slacking!". Good lord, people...

They're not going to release the OTA until its ready. I'd take a 4.0.4 that's fully baked rather than a 4.0.3 that has some fixes and leaves bugs... and another OTA to 4.0.4 after that to fix the rest.

Didn't they run into more problems by giving ETA's and then missing them?
