[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] RsOnAndroid:
Not sure if this helps, but with build 109, I am not facing this issue and Appollo is picking up the tracks like normal.:good:

---------- Post added at 08:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:57 AM ----------

Same here.. Filexpert backs up the apks very well (apart from other functions like instant web interface, root access etc.), and for mass install, I now have the apk batch installer as suggested above. Why load the phone with unnecessary software?

:D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ccooluke:
I'm on 109... lol media keeps restarting too... don't know if it is actually scanning correctly? I've tried numerous scanner apps... no luck
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] RsOnAndroid:
okay, let me trying playing apollo for longer and see.. in the meanwhile, did you try uninstalling and reinstalling apollo?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] EdWaRdW818:
Hmm... Google Play Music works OK for me even starting in the early builds, whether it's Bluetooth audio, built-in speaker or 3.5mm jack, and I have roughly 800 songs and 6 playlists (including some world song collections) on here.

Maybe it'd behoove you to format the sdcard through a computer and re-add the music; maybe there's a corrupt system file on there somewhere... It even cleared up a ton of space (like almost 1GB) used by system files afterwards on my phone.

Since Apollo didn't work that well for me from ICS beta all the way until Build 99 (aesthetics/layout, glitchy, no album art), I never really checked it out after that and always uninstall it on every update, so I'll have to check it on the next build and will post an update.

Speaking of audio, who do I consult if the Equalizer doesn't work on certain radio apps (e.g. it works on GPM but not DI Radio); here or the original software creator?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] nevyntanis:
I have around 16gb music on my sdcard, I am using mort player and this build for me is the first test build that doesnt give me media problems. Not that the others gave major problems, once it hung my device, and once or twice it played the music with a stutter, but thats gone now with 109.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] .ili.music.ili.:
I have about the 16 gigs of music as well and was experiencing stuttering with Apollo. I feel that it's a crappy program, pixelizes album art, always goes back to the artist tab when clicking songs when on the now playing area, I mean, why wouldn't it go back to the list of songs if I picked the song from that way? It also has no functionality with the menu button. You had to click those 3 dots in the corner. Not many options there, either.

I just use Google Music, it's got its problems, but it's working much better for me.

But both recognized my songs...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Indiwiz:
can anyone else reproduce touches getting "stuck" on the screen? as in, when I'm swyping , if I finish and remove my finger on the letter "a" , I can still see the trace as if I never removed my finger. this didn't start happening until 107 or 109.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] nevyntanis:
Lol, I just got that, took me a few days to figure it out. Dam I am slow...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dragon-son:
I using the Swype beta, and no issues for me. I got tired of fixing the original Swype with each new build, so I moved to the beta.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mazdarati2:
i have flashed 109 yesterday and i think that that this one is slightly slower than my old 103. and sometimes it has a error with the screen wich sometimes causes to show the notification bar in the middle, and above is the row with apps. when i touch the screen, is all good.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ccooluke:
well it finally just started showing me my music.. i didn't even do anything
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] heybobitsme:
Ok, I got the dmesg right from boot. I hope this is what you need. I'll try the other things you mentioned when I have more time. Thanks.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Indiwiz:
that's what I have also. it's not just Swype, it's all around. for instance when I was unlocking the phone the slider was "stuck" on the unlock icon until I touched it. I'll take a picture of the touch input being stuck once I get home to my camera so everyone can see what I mean.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Indiwiz:
I got screenshots using the vol- + power method.

and this is what happens when I touch another spot on the screen afterwards.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cracksmurf:
I get this same situation. However, I know for me it is because the touch screen digitizer or the cable going to it is going bad. Whenever I touch within the dead zone of my screen, it will lock on to a point of one of the edges of the dead zone (like the screenshot you showed). Turning off the screen and then back on again unlocks this stuck touch point for me. I'd recommend trying that, and if it has the same effect you may be having the same issue as me. Another test would be to turn on "Pointer location" in Developer options. Swipe your finger across the entire screen and see if any parts make your draw line act up.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Indiwiz:
the digitizers in the Visions are crap. I just returned a G2 for a faulty one and this one is acting up. it hasn't even been a month.

but I never have to turn off the screen, touching another spot fixes it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mazdarati2:
Best thing about this ROM is that i dont have any issues with playing music. no stutter or lag. ive had that on 4.0 with google play music but not with 4.1
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Realm11984:
Phone

Is just my phone or is anyone else experiencing really bad lag in the phone app. It used to be slow but now it can take 10-20 secs to change from dialer to call log or any other tab within the phone app. I remember awhile back flinny saying that there was problems with loading but it seems to get worse. Thanks!

Sorry im on 107
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Gana2k1:
No - never had this problem. How many contacts do you have?

Just asking the obvious question - have you done wipe/install? I have over 700 and dont see any lag whatsoever.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blk_jack:
That's obviously an issue on your end. I run ICS and have 30GB of music on my MicroSD card (it's my portable music player) and don't have any stutter or lag. Not with either headphones/bluetooth while using Google Play Music. Have never had any issues playing music despite the large amount of albums I have on my device.

Pretty unfortunate that for some reason you thought that music lag/stutter was some overseen flaw in ICS that had somehow gone unreported and unfixed since January though..
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Flinny:
Media scanner can sometimes be very slow... or very rarely get's stuck on specific files. Have not figured out what triggers this, have even wiped SD and copied an album at a time until it stopped working to find a few files. Last time it was a bad jpeg. Hopefully some patches for media scanner will come along and fix it all.

Some strange errors mounting filesystems on your phone....

Not seeing this problem tbh..... Happens on a clean install or only after you have installed some apps? Might be a hardware problem.

Nope It's instantly switching for me.

I always had issues with google play music on ICS and never used it. I still use Apollo tbh but then it just fires off playlists and that's all I use it for :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] .ili.music.ili.:
The phone app sometimes lags for me too.

I don't know what causes it. Sometimes it'll not identify the phone number as being in my contacts so when I get a phone call, it will just be the number. If I wait long enough it'll change it to the name, though.

Other times, like what the other person said, it will take a lot of time to switch between recently called/call log and contacts. It'll look like I have nothing in my contacts or call log. After waiting, it fills, though.

It might have to do with too many apps open.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] nevyntanis:
I get the same problem too, and in my case I don't think its open apps, I have very few on my device, maybe 10 apps apart from the apps that come with the build and I delete some of those too, apollo and most of the wallpapers and some others. I don't install gaaps either...

Another thought, based on the media scanner issue (not sure of the relevance here), most of my contacts have pictures, could it maybe something related to that?

Strangely it doesn't always happen, the problem is intermittent.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] gee one:
@ Flinny - My continued thanks for an awesome ROM. It just keeps getting more and more betterer. I think speed and battery life have improved with JB. Thanks!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mazdarati2:
yeah but i have been using JB for less than a month, and with all ICS ROMS if had, the lag was there, with every music player. except 4.1, with google play music
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dragon-son:
I've had this a few times, I thought it was just my install. Not very consistent on when it's happened to me though. I will try to get some logs if I see it happen again.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] heybobitsme:
Oh wonderful! :eek: I think I'll try to download it again, but this time from my pc rather than the phone. Thanks for taking a look at it. :cool:
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mazdarati2:
is it aosp-based or stock 4.1.1 based?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Lou_Cipher:
Crazy battery life

Just wanted to say, this is the best battery life I've ever had out of this phone on any rom! I work in what is basically a faraday cage surrounded by concrete, in the basement, and even though I forgot to turn on wifi when I got in, 10 hours off the charger and I'm still at 87%. Unprecedented. Great work Flinny.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] RsOnAndroid:
Tried- No problems with Apollo.. played music over an hour with no issues..

Got some other issues though related to Bluetooth etc which are logged on the issue log.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Dryize:
For MIUI fans,

Theres a MIUI JB version out there which is pretty stable. camera, wi-fi, bluetooth,gps, video, music works fine

But I think its based on earlier version of finny's JB. 98 may be

my current uptime is 100+ and still working well without any lag and Battery life is superb. Im not gonna post any link.

This Just to inform those who are interested.

Finny feel free to remove this if you feel so. Meant no offence :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] v1r0x:
A quote from the OP.

I think it's not good to use an test build as base for a beta. So you have to deal with miui bugs, porting bugs and andromadus bugs.

That's the reason why I don't release my miui port. Also we should respect flinnys work and don't break the rules ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bassbox:
did a clean install of build 109.. when did adobe flash player stopped working in stock browser ?? (got a backup of it, worked in earlier builds of this rom!)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] zanep:
Where is the Andromadus stable build thread for the G2?

I am on the Sept 29th build from this thread and most works great. Just a few glitches with the camera that I can live with. I just found out that when in video mode when I push record there is sometimes a delay, then it goes back to normal video view without recording. When I hit the red record button again it crashes with a Gallery has unfortunately closed error. I have the camera workaround (development setting) enabled. (Not sure if any relation).

Is this a known issue?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] thebogmonster:
109 is still running a little slow.

Hi Flinny,

Well I've given 109 a whole days running to see if the speed would settle and get back to where it used to be.

No luck I'm afraid, just to make sure I wasn't imagining it I flashed back to x77 build on my 2nd Dz and benchmarked them both with identical settings.

Screenshots are attached - doesn't make good reading I'm afraid, RAM and Database IO speed are quite a bit slower in 109 than in 77 - I'm wondering if some of the cm10 commits have had a effect.

I also benchmarked a copy of x92 build and that had the same speed issue. Unless you have 2 Dz running side by side you can't actually see the difference between the early builds and the current ones. Even a sense 4a ported ROM running the 3.0.43 kernel is ahead of 109.

As always though Flinny I know you'll find the problem, keep up the great work.

Bog

:)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] MarcelS:
Rom IMO is awesome but i found 2 issues: when i plug headphones icon on statusbar doesn't appear and sometimes it communicate that cm updater app was closed.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Realm11984:
Kind of a last response but I guess I'm not the only one with the contact lag issue. I have been noticing more lag all over like when switching apps and such. I think my phone is just getting tired. Its been a great run and I have fully appreciated the work of so many great developers making my phone better than it was ever intended to be! Looking forward to the Note 2, I think its gonna steal my money!:D.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] pentie:
True . But this andromadus haven't release a stable for much more than 100 releases (during mounths), and this is the only usable JB rom, i believe many other ROM cooker can't wait for that .
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Flinny:
Well... they have the choice of waiting or building their own from source. The source is all available to do with as you like it's specifically my binary builds I don't really want anybody building ontop of.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] agazza:
Not actually related, but is it possible for our phone to have video output through the usb port?

sent from phone
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ablivian:
I've installed an app (doesn't matter witch app). I've a newer version on my sdcard, and I press on it. The package installer opens. I choose "install". It shows the messagebox "Replace app?". I press "ok". Then I can install the app. This is all normal. It starts installing, and after a couple of seconds it shows an error: "App not installed. An existing package with conflicting signature is already installed". When I remove the previous version, and install the new version. It does not show an error message.

I've done a full wipe with clean install. I don't know if this bug is allready known?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] nevyntanis:
I don't think this is a bug, I read a few post back about some silly anti piracy measures that changes where the app installs or something like that. ( I may be talking complete hogwash here). Can anyone confirm this?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] davidrol:
install

I believe there is a data (or anti-piracy) portion of the install that will not overwrite existing files. This problem is not unique to this ROM. Its not a bug.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ablivian:
I've found this:

Anti-piracy measures. Starting in JellyBean, applications will be encrypted with a device-specific key so they can't simply be copied and uploaded to the Internet. This means more legitimate sales for developers

http://www.zdnet.com/blog/burnette/whats-new-in-android-4-1-jellybean/2629

My problem was that I could install the newer version if i uninstalled the older one beforehand. Or is the anti-piracy more than I've found?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] agazza:
No eastereggs or rumours os something flinny? So i can feel like a kid a week before christmas again :good:
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mazdarati2:
I got this sometimes after flashing 109
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dragon-son:
I've seen this happen a few times where its showing what looks like tons of icons while its loading or changing betweens apps. I haven't been able to reliably reproduce it, or even manage to get a screen shot because it only shows a few seconds for me. If I remember correctly someone posted something similar a while back saying they see tons of icons randomly as well.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ablivian:
I also had this.

It happened when apex launcher was installed on my phone and i only flashed flinny_109 over andromadus 1.5.0 and booted the first time and i had to chose between trebuchet and apex launcher. Maybe this could be helpfull to reproduce? After i chose for apex. I didn't get anything like this.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] master.peterm:
if you use pimp my rom with this rom, the speed increases by ALOT! http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1908269 (idk how it affects battery yet tho)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Warbuff:
Why would you do that. I normally would never flash on top of ROMs that are different versions of android.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] revanmj:
I don't know in which build that was introduced, but recently when I try to switch between 2G only and 3G / 2G modes I got black screen with capactive buttons backlighted and the only I can do is pull out battery. Anyone have similar problem? (I have build 109 now and I already got this bug few times)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Flinny:
I'm going to say... No :)

nothing much happening tbh, Have a few tweaks I'm playing with that will probably be in the next build. fyodor and I have thrown a few things into the kernel but nothing major yet, but hey you never know :)

In what ways? Don't suppose you have an antutu from before/after?

Not seeing this, I don't switch to 2g every day but maybe a few times a week.

If you're having problems after upgrading from a completely different rom to a test build then I dont want to know of any problems until you've done a full wipe and can reproduce it on a clean install! :>

Nick.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ablivian:
Seems logic :) It was only a hint, maybe the other users who complained came from other roms.. :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Indiwiz:
go into settings > development > check "disable HW overlay"
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] revanmj:
Is it possible that this problem is specific to only some carriers?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Flinny:
Wouldn't have thought so.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bakaev:
wifi voip call problem

I started using the 109 version as DD and I'm quite satisfied with it. The only major problem which annoys me is the following:

wi-fi voip call via JB integrated voip:

Loudspeaker OFF: when proximity sensor detects smth, I start hearing the the other person with delay. When I took the phone away from the head - the incoming sound becomes normal w/o delays.

Loudspeaker ON: in each state of proximity sensor, the sound is okay.

I checked logcat and I found the following line when I close the sensor with hand being in "loudspeak=off" state:

E/CM PowerHAL( 296): Error opening /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/ondemand/sampling_rate: No such file or directory

It seems that when (loudspeaker=off & proximity_sensor_detected_proximity=yes) the phone tries to switch to ondemand governor.

part of LOGCAT is attached.

P.S. Probably my problem is the same as here: bugs.andromadus.com/issues/81
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ilgeor:
Hi!

Don't know whether it is still needed, but I've spent a while searching for a solution to this problem: disappearing widgets after reboot

You just need to

1. save the app with titanium backup

2. delete it with TB

3. recover

and finally it's with you.

(all credits go to KBanause)

:cowboy:
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Flinny:
Build 111 is up.

Android 4.1.2

CM synced

few tweaks :)

Whatever else changed in the mean time....

I forgot to include the 2w call recording patch this time round, will get it in the next build :)

Nick.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Aumkar:
Wait a second. 2 way call recording? Nice.

I have a few questions. How's the camera stuff going in JB? And is it as speedy as mimicry 1.5.0? I'm talking about random freezing and ****.

And if I were to "upgrade" from mimicry, would I have a boatload of issues? I don't like installing all my apps again.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] MarcelS:
can i update it without wipe?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Flinny:
I wouldn't recommend upgrading from mimicry without a wipe... your choice though but a) read the op and b) make a backup first!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dragon-son:
Downloaded build 111. Running AIO wipe tool for G2/DZ with dual wipe. Will install Build 111 as soon as it's done getting wiped.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Flinny:
If your on a previous test build a cache and dalvik wipe should be fine.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] last_chance:
Menu button sometimes need to be pressed twice...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Flinny:
The power hal message is a red herring it's not causing you any problem just the power hal is a bit dumb still and doesn't detect which governor your using. The problem with sip if you look back a bit has been discussed already.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Flinny:
Things I forgot.. kernel updated to 3.0.45 (fyodor)

I cooked the missing bit's of zram support in. it's there it works whether it's any use I'll leave it up to you to decide.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mazdarati2:
im a bit late but, the problem i posted in some posts ago. i was having it after build 103 and a superwipe. is it fixed in build 111?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] davidrol:
SIP sound issues

Hi bakaev, I have sweated through this and concluded that wifi goes in to sleep mode during sip call whenever the proximity sensor is triggered. Others are having the same problem... not unique to this rom or jb. I believe, gingerbread was the only consistently stable version in this regard.

I have posted a script to avoid screen shutoff during calls: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=32222456#post32222456. Workaround for Wifi Performance when Screen is off.:)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bakaev:
I flashed build 111. I can't call via native sip client neither by using userinit script posted just above nor by using 'advanced wifi lock' app.CSipSimple doesn't help: the problem remains.

Can anybody confirm that? No way to use voip via wifi in this build?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] davidrol:
sip audio

Yes, I can confirm that SIP is broken in 111. Rolling back to 109 until someone can discover what has changed or a fix is found for this build.

The userinit script works for me, wifi lock doesn't, unfortunately. Rom Manager Lite will import and run the script at boot.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] RsOnAndroid:
I tried upgrading - lots of issues - did a clean wipe - works really well. Re installing the app, I had the same issue sometime back and a good soul told me about apk batch installer - solved all my reinstall issues, provided you are on good 'ol windows :)

Hope this helps..
