I have a question, it seems that my Radio is "old" and there is a new one released long time ago and i didn't notice.

- VISION_RADIO_RCDATA_12.62.60.27_26.13.04.19.zip

When i was reading about it, i also noticed that i should use

- EFS Partition Wipe Tool

So to fix GPS issues, and also apparantly need some gps/ril to match the new radio

- Radio 26.13.04.19 Radio - ril and gps .so updater for CM7 based ROMS

My question is, is anyone here using those? should i upgrade? i always have an itch to try the latest :silly:

But as my system seems to be working well, and i don't know if these are compatible with this CM10 build, so i just wanna confirm with you guys first :)

PS: Just upgraded to build 69 and can also confirm WiFi doesn't reboot me after several on/off, and Camera seems to be rotating properly.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] SystemIcon:
Loaded 69, the issue with the compass malfunctioning when changing the tilt of the phone is still present. Unfortunately :/
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] killer8nl:
I tried the radio fix that I was using on ICS when I installed JB for the first time. But for me it messes up the radio and I was not able to get any 2g/3g connections at all. Radio can be updated safely via fastboot/pc10img without installing the fix.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Sefy:
I've flashed just the Radio (and the EFS wipe) and so far so good including 3G reception.

I gotta say though, that with the latest JB (.69) my battery lasted 28 hours with WiFi active and atleast 3 to 4 hours of music playing and of course the normal usage of a phone (like calls and sms lol)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rirozizo:
this ROM is pretty good! i'm hoping i see a new thread with a stable build soon.

Hi Flinny,

Congrats to you and the team on the latest release!

felt smoother from the start, decided to give it a quick Antutu run as before and is now virtually indentical in speed in all areas (CPU INT is actually quicker) to a good ICS build, not far behind gingerbread now. IO speeds are very different now, making general operations seem much quicker. so glad the team's hard work has payed off,

Thanks again,

:)

Hi Flinny. What about my problem ? :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] pentie:
Well I encounter the WIFI problem when I walk to another room with another router, the wifi just died. Have to reboot to have it connected again.

I can confirm that my issues with Google Goggles and camera are gone in build 69
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Sefy:
Found a .. mm bug.. i installed iGO and while it's the correct screen resolution (480x800), the app is moved up as if the notification bar is at the bottom. I've attached a few screen shots to show how it looks, you can clearly see the empty space at the bottom and the area where it is cut off at the top.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] WhiteSnake93:
Wifi Hotspot doesn't work for me, do I still have to push it over?

In case I have to push it over, is it the .gz file in the OP?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sharptv:
I can see the next beta in the horizon already!!! Because of Flinny i have kept my mt4gs sealed in its box since in get way more xda with my g2.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bradley_e_smith:
Compass might still have issues (Photaf)

The landscape program Photaf doesn't seem to see the movement correctly when using the 'automatic' photo taking. Their FAQ seems to indicate when that happens you need to reset the compass. The camera does work great, the program just doesn't see when you move the camera.

I didn't really see anything in the logcat but could get one if needed.

Also sent email to developer as well
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Flinny:
Compass is b0rked... needs fixing at the kernel level still..
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Whoareyou:
Okay, really annoying bug ive been having with the last few builds, i wipe cache/dalvik cache before flash, and once im running the ROM, my phone keeps force closing the system, is this known?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Flinny:
As I have been reminded after I wiped my SD card and it works again. Check for a file called .nomedia in the root of your SD card/or in any other folders you have media in.

If you still have problems then do a full wipe, copy all of your data from your SD card and format it. boot up and copy say one album of MP3 into a music folder. See if it picks that up first. If it works then copy all the other media files onto your SD Card. Media scanner works, the fact your having issues after a wipe points to something on your SD card...

Nick.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] revanmj:
After using notification widgets to switch Wi-Fi in 69 I also got it blocked and had to reboot.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] SystemIcon:
Is that something youre working on or should I bug someone upstream?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sp1980:
I don't have problems like this. Try a superwipe ext4, after backing up the system of course.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] whistlerGreg:
Anyone having issues with media bringing the phone to a crawl until a reboot? DoubleTwist & Apollo are both painful to use, Skype also seems to bring the phone to a grinding halt and sometimes a reboot.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jmaciak:
I believe most of visitors of this thread run this most-up-to-date radio. With ICS it was helpful to also install ril matching libraries as there were issus with data being lost after turning off wifi for some users.

However, with this rom I have not installed the libs as I have yet not found an answer whether they are JB compatible. And surprisingly, wifi to data switching with this rom and newest radio without the ril matching libs is the fastest I've ever experienced with this phone. But YMMV.

Regarding EFS wipe - it is just flash you install through recovery and generally it won't hurt and is usually the first thing I do when I have any radio/gps related pains. Just don't mistake it with SuperWipe+EFS as it will wipe all partitions including system, data, ...

Hotspot working fine here

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] danieljordanmaddux:
Just thought I'd let you guys know. I'm no longer using my g2 as my DD so I don't get on these forums quite as often. But on the galaxy S3 forums someone pointed out yesterday that the .nomedia file being created in the root of your sdcard (which keeps the media scanner from seeing images and music in that directory) is related to the new version of Rom Manager and even when you delete the file it gets recreated on each boot. So the best solution is to just downgrade versions for now.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rirozizo:
man! i always get jealous because you can have the features before us :D i mean, now you have compass and we still don't! but then again, you're the one who's in pain trying to fix the issues, we are just pressing the thank button that's all.

Here's a complaint; rommanager is pointless and shouldn't be part of any system image. Let people who actually want it, install it themselves.

That's not a fully working ANYTHING, that's htc STENCH (i.e. Android, crippled beyond use). Everybody should hurry up and hit the nearest HTC rep with a stick, then maybe it'll die.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Sefy:
I Actually really like HTC Sense, it gives the entire UI a more professional look and finish, that's my opinion anyway.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Indiwiz:
+1 .. Sense always adds that "touch" that is missing from AOSP. and despite what anyone says, i really like Beats audio. it's clear and handles bass at higher volumes better than just about anything. just don't buy the headphones lol.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blackknightavalon:
My music apps still aren't reading my /sdcard/music folder after a reformat and deleting every last .nomedia file on my card.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] WhiteSnake93:
How can I install apps on internal storage? My apps are all installed on sdcard and Im mostly fine with that, but one of my apps needs to be installed on internal storage in order to work properly.

I already tried pushing it with Titanium Backup, but it didn't work out.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blackknightavalon:
I just tried transferring an app on the SD card to internal via Titanium and it worked as it should.

Also, my music apps now read /sdcard/music. Getting better and better.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Formiak:
I'm still having issue with wifi. Sorry for not providing logcat but I was lying in my bed without pc. I made screenshots and had to reboot to restore working wifi. Besides this I had some weird thing when rebooting device for example with battery after reboot there's more %% in the bar. GOOD work

Using latest (70) build it seems that WiFi problem is fixed for me. I can disable WiFi and after that I enable it and it works fine. But, now, when I disable WiFi, it wont connect to 3G service. Signal bar keeps changing from 3G to no data connection. I used alog and pasted logcat here http://pastebin.com/7KxQL9tm Hopefully it can help with resolving the issue. Thanks again and keep up the good work :) Greets from Serbia
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] kafarnsworth:
I have the same problem: the 3G symbol appears then disappears about once every ten seconds. It started right after I flashed version 70.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Flinny:
Looks like a cm patch broke data... have reverted it and seems ok again. Am on a train at the moment. I'll see if I can get it uploaded shortly. ;)

Double post... grrr
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Matze5800:
The wifi always cuts down to about 5 kb/s when the screen is off. Is there a way to stop it from beeing THAT aggressive? A cut down to about 30 kb/s would be perfect as this wouldn't kill radio streaming...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tomtom72:
Hi, as a workaround, go to data connection in the setup, turn it of an turn it on again. This works for me. I think i turned wifi also off before

Have fun

there something wrong with gprs,in 70,sometimes it just keep connecting…
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] otariq:
Are the functions to skip music with volume or pause with camera when screen is off working in latest build? I'm on 45 and they're not working

And I asked this earlier but does the new build let u customize lock screen with additional shortcuts i.e. mms or gmail
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blk_jack:
Not sure if they were in 45, but in 54+ you can skip tracks and play/pause with the camera button. Make sure you enable them in Settings -> Sound.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] otariq:
They're enabled maybe it was just a bug but I dont like the new keyboard so I'll just stay on 45

building question

yesterday i made a build again and i had some problems:

i got a error related to the inline kernel building (im building on a fedora 64 bit system - gcc 4.6.3)

then i removed the commit in the boardconfig.mk and everything worked fine again...

so my question is the following: is this related to my operation system or does the inline kernel building not work?

thx in advance :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] csolanol:
Someone tried new gapps (20120422)?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] :
yep, they work... didn´t recognize a big difference though
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blk_jack:
Inline kernel building has been fixed as of the 22nd.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] MarkyG82:
Ditto. Not looked in the gmail app yet as I'm using k9 currently.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] otariq:
Anyones clock freezing up on any of the test builds?? Kinda sucks when ur pulling all-nighters for exams and realize its an hr ahead of what the phone said lol
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] MarkyG82:
I can see how that could cause brain ache :) no issues here I'm afraid. Try a full wipe and reflash.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] David Dee:
Yes, flashed them right away, haven't noticed a difference yet. I guess no news is good news when it comes to these things.

video recording

ok, i think i found a fix for different resolution in video recording:

1. i changed the 720p bitrate to 600000 and 420p to 300000 (i think these are the bitrates our device is made for - at least that are the cm7 configurations)

2. all fps to 15

3. and thats the trick - i changed weight and height for all bitrates to 720 & 480

...dont know if this is a proper fix, but it works :) (you can see the difference between qvga and 720p)

i attached the media_profiles.xml - push the file to /system/etc and restart the phone

EDIT: after some more testing - it seems to be related to our phones display resolution = 600000 bitrate with 800 & 480 also works perfectly (i changed the attachement = 720p = 800 x 480 :))

EDIT2: maybe i fixed the timelpase for qvga

...maybe this helps for a real fix.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] C.Flat:
This isn't unique to 55 it had done it on very early alpha builds too. Just open and close the keyboard and the clock will reset to normal
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ubernicholi:
it seems to work. however dont select qvga and then timelapse. you will wave to clear data for the camera use it again.

Got a problem with the camera in the 70 rom. Before i want to take a picture, it focus and then stop doing anything. It freezes completely.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] spjuggalojoe:
Try clearing data for the camera app, its worked for alot of issues on previous builds.

Edit: I too have had problems with cell radio disconnects, but its been happening for the last build or two. I just dismissed it as a carrier problem. T-Mobile actually has a hole in their coverage map in the shape of my property due to complaints about coverage over the last four years lmfao!

Totally OT, but does anyone know which file(s) I need to change so apps see my phone as a G2 again? Need hulu plus for an upcoming road trip ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Lazy79:
only build.prop i think and then reboot (?)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] spjuggalojoe:
I was leaning that direction myself. I'll give it a shot when Ti backup is done and let ya know.

Update: Editing build.prop just gave me boot loop, reverting changes didn't correct it. Just reflashed build 70 and gapps, then found 71 is uploaded. Thanks @Flinny you beautiful overachiever!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Flinny:
71 is up. Will have to sort md5 out in a bit

Only change from 70 is I reverted a cm patch that was giving me data issues!

Same problem here on build 71. Wiping camera data didn't help. Pictures you shoot appear just grey. I'm sure my camera worked on older builds but had a bug with the preview orientation which is gone now.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Sefy:
I flash .71 (cleared Cache before, do i need to clear Dalvik too?) and when i just tried to turn on WiFi, it rebooted my phone after about 1 min of trying to turn it on.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] d.skarb:
Same here with camera on build 71. I think there is something wrong with focus. After focusing (by touch or in the other way), camera app just freezes.

On the other hand, it is still really great material for DD for many DZ users I think. Flinny, keep doing your fantastic work! :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] TobiS87:
Yep, Camera freezes when focussing as well as when you take a shot. The picture is all grey and the camera is froze after taking the picture.

GPS is working perfect. Tried a couple of times with Endomondo with great reception.

Was using .69, trying .71 now to see if the WiFi problem is gone.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lordevol:
I can confirm the camera problem on 71.

JB feature missing:

- Google now offline. Maybe sometime in the future?

- Project Butter. I don't think it will ever work for our old desire z, right?

Everything else is ok for me. Great job!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tarroyo:
Has triple buffering made its way into JB test builds? or is that still being worked on???
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jspina:
It's been there since the beginning
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] whistlerGreg:
- Don't think there is such thing as Goole now offline? Google now works the exact same on my Nexus 7 as it does on my G2 (just a lot slower).

- I believe project Project butter is working almost as intended, the smoothness compared to ICS is night and day! Triple buffering in the kernel is on, i think there is still some work on vsync to go, but point of story, if it isn't substantially smoother than the ICS builds then try a full wipe!

I feel like jellybean, even with the so called buttery smoothness, still isn't as fast and smooth as cm7.2. Is this normal? Anyone else experience this? I went back to cm7 about a month ago so i haven't test the latest builds. Are the latest builds substantially faster, smoother than flinnycm10_3x_27, which is the last build of jellybean I've tested?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] pauldacheez:
The newer builds are MUCH MUCH MUCH faster, coming close to a perfect 60 fps in certain cases. There's still a few areas of lag (comparing AnTuTu benchmark scores between this and CM7.2 might tell you a bit), but performance seems to be reaching CM7 levels.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bradley_e_smith:
Camera Logcat

As others pointed out, the camera has issues. For me it takes the picture but after that I can't seem to do anything unless I exit the program (and I then loose the picture in the buffer).

I have attached a logcat, but I don't see anything really.
