That happens on my Evo shift, and my doubleshot no matter what ROM i run, sometimes i think its me then other times i know its the phone or android its self.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] tbalden:
Same here.only HTC vision didn't have that issue so far
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] nosuchfile:
My battery life is fantastic, best of any ROM I've used to date. Anker 1900 in my phone. I am using JuiceDefender on default settings.

Looking forward to alpha 4!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] RazoE:
I've calibrated several times, and each time it's the same..

Now that I think about it, it could be related to the force TV-out. I don't use it very often, but I do have it. I'll try a fresh install without it and see how battery is.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] tbalden:
Alpha 4 out! Check OP for link!

Updates

Hey all,

I just posted Alpha4. I updated the OP accordingly.

Also, CyanogenMod opened the Github.com repos for doubleshot this week, and they are now in Gerrit (review.cyanogenmod.com). Links also in OP.

Apologies for the delays and everything else. After moving last week, I got really sick from an infection and been in the hospital. Bouncing back now :)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dhkr234:
Is that a regression?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] tbalden:
From alpha2 yes, from alpha3 progress

;)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] seidler2547:
Great, thanks! I'll flash asap. I used to use CSipSimple (VoIP) a lot but with Alpha3 it made my phone crash every time I tried a call. I know that they have to fiddle quite a lot with the audio stuff b/c every device is just a little different and/or needs a different hack to make it work.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] infernodemon2005:
When updating from alpha 3 do I need to wipe data?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] tbalden:
no, but its always worth, especially if you have a handy titanium backup. :)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] mattlowry:
i didnt see in op but is trackpad wake/sleep already built in or do we need to flash again?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ac3theone:
things i found:

bugs

-wifi calling works but the wifi signal fluctuates which drops the call even if right in front of router

-the weather on the lock screen dosent show the temp in Fahrenheit

-menu wake does not work
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dhkr234:
Well in alpha 3 + fix, it was right side up + working. What you've written suggests that it is right side up + broken sensor, which sounds worse :confused:
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] tbalden:
For kornyone WiFi calling worked well,but we will test further

There's back button wake,not menu
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] tbalden:
Believe me,sensors driver can be half broken too :)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] tbalden:
Not yet.flash it
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ac3theone:
oops got it working now
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dhkr234:
Ah, now I understand... It was half broken still with A3+fix :D
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] gtmaster303:
Trackpad wake and sleep flashable zips should be added to OP
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] nosuchfile:
alpha4 and trackpad wake fix working, no problems noted (other than known issues)

flashed (without wipe), rebooted, and then flashed the trackpad fix

No problems so far.

NICE WORK team Doubleshot!!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] kornyone:
We need testers for wifi calling. I have limited prepaid mins to test and specific hardware. Using type N wifi on a dd-wrt I had perfect test calls, including an 18min test. Tbalden cannot use wifi calling.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] okeeblow:
This live wallpaper still shows as incompatible for me on CM9 Alpha 4. It installed fine on Virtuous Inquisition, and I'm still using an old version I backed up with Titanium when moving from that ROM.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ac3theone:
ill get right on this
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] inkling:
Glad you're feeling better!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] kornyone:
Please don't run up your bill on my behalf! I simply mean testing will tell us how useful Wi-Fi Calling is, and if it's junk, we can fix/scrap it.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] seidler2547:
No more audio issues here, CSipSimple works perfect, thanks!

Stefan
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] tbalden:
i'll link to those. Wake stuff will be merged into kernel/device tree as well.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ac3theone:
Wifi calling

oh no wifi calling is free for me, when i got this phone i added the wifi call service to my plan so it doesnt use my plan minutes. Been this way for months now.

Heres my router settings-

Mode: Wireless-N Only

Linksys E1500 Latest stock firmware

Channel Width: 20MHz only

Security: AES

Channel: 11

Security: WPA2 Personal

SSID Broadcast: Enabled

My testing

-Had a thread with 23 text messages, so sending and receiving texts seem to work fine. the person i was texting got them right away and i received the texts right away. Texting also works when i was on phone calls.

-Phone calls on speaker phone worked well, sound quality was fine to me

-i sent 3 mms's but they just stay at "sending", they dont go through.

-I made someone send me a mms and i got the message but when i tried to open the pic, i had to press "download" when i did it said downloading. It looked like it was downloading since i saw the activity on the wifi icon but the pic never showed up. every time i press download a few seconds go by and then im able to press download again. they person sent me 3 mms but only 1 showed up in the message thread. so it seems mms has issues.

-Made 6 calls

First call lasted 6mins, no issues.

Second call lasted 7mins, no issues

Third call lasted 17mins, no issues

Made 3 conference call, lasted 5min, no issues

Update 1-Restored apps/data with titanium backup and rebooted now wifi calling keeps giving me a tmobile network error and wont enable

Update 2- cleared wifi calling data, then disabled,wifi/BT and rebooted then enabled wifi calling and now its working fine
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] infernodemon2005:
Just made a 10 minute wifi call. It worked nicely. Going to be continuing the tests for you. Also of note my phone connects to a g/n router in g mode.

Camera Issues

I've had this camera issue in Alpha 3. Thought maybe the new version would fix it, so I didn't bother reporting this.

Sometimes the camera will "freeze" and then I have to restart to get it working again. Not sure if this is a known bug.

Here is that logcat:

http://pastebin.com/EY8ZWPFb
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Tamarinde:
My camera worked fine in A3 ever since i flashed that kernel
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] humanophile:
The lack of a tab button for auto-complete in the terminal bugs me. So, I have modified my keylayout to map the silly "www./.com" button to be a tab key like so:

adb pull /system/usr/keylayout/doubleshot-keypad.kl

Edit doubleshot-keypad.kl with your favorite text editor. Change "key 150 EXPLORER" to "key 150 TAB". Save the file.

adb root
adb remount
adb push doubleshot-keypad.kl /system/usr/keylayout/doubleshot-keypad.kl

At this point, I rebooted the phone. I'm not sure if that's required. Afterwards, I was able to tab-complete in bash, and I was a happy camper. : )
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] jonnycat26:
Does visual voicemail work with this ROM? It doesn't show as available from the app store...

EDIT: I pulled the vvm app from my MT3GS, and its working fine.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dgurion:
My camera "works".... Just sometimes it will freeze, and then I won't be able to use the camera afterwards until I restart.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] infernodemon2005:
I keep getting screen freezes where the touchscreen is unresponsive. I have to do a hard reset by pulling the battery to fix it.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Protricity:
Tv Out functionality meaning your bruteforce tv-out mod?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Appogee:
Just flashed, smooth and stable. Only thing bothering me, whats up with the Equalizers or is that just me? DSP has no effect when I check off "Bass Booster - Extreme" and nothing happens for presets in Volume+ either.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] seidler2547:
In order to avoid potential compatibility problems, here's a smaller flashable ZIP for trackpad wake just on Alpha4.

Making the trackpad to sleep the device is the same as before, note that if you want trackpad sleep, you have to flash the ...tpw... file

before

the ...sleep... file and the ...tpw... file contains a kernel, so if you're S-ON, you should know what you have to do :)

Oh, and while I was at it, I changed the mirror issue with the FFC, so now when you rotate the device in the camera app using the FFC, the picture will rotate correctly.

Stefan
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dillalade:
Not sure if you got my response (above) to our previous communication. But perhaps this is a possible direction to explore in an effort to achieve a targeted 'trackpad sleep' effect (rather then the universal one.) Again this is simply a suggestion to tighten your existing efforts ;)

Happened to be googling into how CM have coded for the "lockscreen/screen off" volume rocker controls... so far found this - unsure if helpful or if entirely related to what we are discussing, regardless can't harm to have a gander I guess https://github.com/Evervolv/android...mmit/5e8dd8c62f2ffe3b0e2da645035e377b5adbd88e

Thanks for these :thumbup:

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
Dsp is working for me too. I have it set to slight bass boost and the EQ is on treble boost.....now when you say extreme are you trying to set a db record? Or are you trying to slap this devices speaker like a set of subwoofers?

Maybe bass boost extreme and small speakers will give you the bass boost your expecting lol
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] seansc144:
After I close the camera app I get an error when I return to it.

Closing as in killing from app manager? I've tried entering/exiting it normally,and it worked.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] RazoE:
I noticed I cant download anything from the browser. It just hangs and says it's in progress..

I started from scratch by the way, I didn't upgrade from Alpha 3.

I did notice battery life is vastly improved, good job guys!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] jonnycat26:
I was able to download and install the amazon app store without any issues.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
All good here too. I have a solid nand of alpha 3 but chose to fresh start on 4. I'm starting to really love cm again
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] nicksen782:
Hello!

I have been working to get alpha4 on my phone. The following is a bit of documentation. I managed to fix my problem but I would like to know what actually happened to cause my problems. Your answers may serve someone else as well. Thanks!

Output from logcat when I try to activate Wifi from settings:

E/WifiStateMachine( 253): DriverFailedState

I am not coming from an older alpha. I am coming from a freshly unlocked bootloader, fastboot flash of alpha4's boot.img, manual (later updated) fastboot flash of Clockwork Recovery, then install of alpha4 from Clockwork Recovery.

I used fastboot to write the boot image (I'm unlocked but S-ON because I have the 0013 hboot.) I then rebooted into Clockwork Recovery and installed the alpha4 image. Immediately afterwards I flashed the following updates from post #881 by seidler2547:

cm9-ds-alpha3-trackpad_sleep-signed.zip - 144.9 KB

cm9-ds-alpha4-tpw-ffc-signed.zip - 4.28 MB.

I booted into Cyanogen and found that I could not activate WiFi. I rebooted into Recovery again and installed the Gapps. My WiFi still wasn't working. So I wiped data and rebooted. Same problem.

I then restored my bootloader unlocked NANDROID backup. I tried to boot into it but I only saw the first MyTouch image when the phone turned on. Screen black and phone apparently unresponsive after that. I was able to enter the bootloader and recovery so I guess I'm still safe.

I wondered if the boot.img was written back during the restore. I pulled boot.img out of the NANDROID backup and flashed it. System still didn't start. I flashed the boot.img from alpha4 again.

I rebooted back into recovery, wiped, reflashed alpha4 and Gapps and then wiped again. I rebooted the phone. I was able to activate and use WiFi. I made a phone call over WiFi for 5 minutes with no obvious issues other than when I walked out of range of my wireless AP there was no audible warning other than the phone going silent.

So, what happened to cause my WiFi problem and failed boot from my NANDROID restore?

Thanks and I'm glad I'm finally off of the factory Sense ROM and back on Cyanogenmod!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] seansc144:
I closed it from pressing and holding the home button
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] seansc144:
Besides doing that it works fine t no complaints here:)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] infernodemon2005:
I can confirm the home button close error. The camera won't restart after the home button close method until you restart the phone.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Spidey01:
Today I was trying to send an MMS while on a call and had my screen going "Blank" multiple times while trying to use the Camera app, like every few seconds and focusing was uber laggy like.

Camera seems fine when using it "Normally", except I was deleting some pictures through Camera -> click preview of old pic -> deleting stuff in gallery. And I got "Can't connect to the camera." until reboot.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
I just opened the camera took a pic hit home. Then long pressed home and swiped left on the camera then reopened and took a second pic with no issues. Is this the problem you all are seeing
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] gtmaster303:
At this point, how does this rom compare to Virtuous Inquisition?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] infernodemon2005:
Yes. After the long press and swipe, the camera fails to reload. Not sure why.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
Hmm on a fresh start of alpha 4 and I can't replicate the issue.

*edit*

After about the 5th time it failed to open :D
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] tbalden:
Tackpad wake contains another boot.IMG, with its own WiFi kernel module. You have to fastboot flash that too,otherwise you won't have WiFi if you are s-on with that mod flashed
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Protricity:
can you clarify what 'ported tv out' means for alpha 4? thx :)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] tbalden:
Tv out device driver in the kernel, so the second graphics device is present. Bruteforce tvout app will work. In alpha3 it was missing
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] seidler2547:
Ok, I've updated this post with more information about how to flash it:

For tbalden: For the correct rotation of the FFC, you changed the value to 24, but 26 is correct (mirroring), 24 is without mirroring, that's why the rotation is off. At least for my hardware.

Also, I'm checking the Light Sensor kernel and libsensors source now, it seems a really limited implementation, and on resume it can give wrong values, so I'm looking to improve correctness and smoothness. I hope I can find some time to fork the TeamDS repos and start sending those pull requests :)

Stefan
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] tbalden:
if you dont use 24, you will be mirrored incorrectly in video chat. (just try to show a text to read for your partner)

thats why ill keep it 24 till we find a real solution. Somehow apps cant set the mirroring on the fly, thats the problem.

light sensor kernel is fully fledged, from 2.6. libsensors is just the official akm stuff. but there's room for improvement always maybe.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ajay_zalavadia:
@nicksen782

I think if you are S-ON than the procedure to flash is

First flash the extracted boot.img using fastboot

Than flash the rom (alpha4) via CWM

From ur discription u dint do it initially, but you end up doing the same at the end

I am not a pro with all this stuff but that's what it looked like to me. Coz I have the same problem
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
Has anyones weather lockscreen stopped syncing? All day yesterday it seemed fine now it just says tap to refresh and nothing happens. :confused:
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ac3theone:
Weird, did you try to disable then enabling it?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ac3theone:
I finally got the "cannot connect to camera" error yesterday, a reboot fixed it though
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
Yeah I've changed the update interval and everything. Ill most likely just reflash alpha 4 over top with just a cache and dalvik wipe and see how it does then

*edit*

After a reflash still nothing. That lockscreen weather was sweet too. Also the ccustom text on lockscreen wasn't working either.

*EDIT*Again lol

After using a custom location the weather is just fine! So I can deal with that cause I don't travel any so its not like I need the GPS to follow me for weather
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] jonnycat26:
I've been running this since Friday night, and it's impressively stable. I've had a few minor issues (lockscreen didn't work until I changed the settings), but other than that, it's fantastic.

Great work guys.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] seidler2547:
Hmm, sounds like a question of priorities :) But usually, wouldn't you switch to the rear camera if you wanted to show your partner sth.?

Well, it depends. The sensor has a resolution down to a single lux or better, it's broken down to 9 levels in the kernel, and then further reduced to 6 levels in the sensors library. Not what I would call "fully fledged". I tested to pass through a roughly voltage corrected value from the ADC and it looks good. It can increase the smoothness and especially response time a lot.

The one thing that bothered me the most is that the brightness is very low when the device resumes (a.k.a. lockscreen or incoming call), and it seems that the sensor needs a bit of rest before giving correct values. If anyone has the datasheet for the Capella CM3628 oder CM36283, it would obviously help a lot.

Stefan
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] tbalden:
Well, I guess using a front camera is more often for video chat, which is better when you are not flipped for your partner. And still the real solution is not easy, somehow driver is not functioning 100%

Well, with fully fledged I meant it has the source fully transferred from 2.6 and its compatible with most roms/blobs.

But practically this can be changed if libsensors is changeable too, and right now that's the case.

Either way I found that the light sensor is working well, but maybe there's some use for a more detailed sampling for some of us
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Some_dude36:
Anyone having problem with SMS? MMS is working fine I can see pics and download but neither gosms or the stock app will send a text

UPDATE: I installed the alpha 4 although didnt really want to seem's lotta folks are having trouble with it . but sms sent successfully. Maybe cause Id flashed the pyramid stuff fix for the camera? shrug .. for the moment its working
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dgurion:
I think that's the same thing as me... Camera will freeze, and then when you try starting it again it will say "Can't connect to camera"... restart always fixes it... but... it is annoying at times... I tried posting a logcat... not sure if I did it properly...

Despite this minor issue... this rom is awesome... thanks for all the hard work everyone...
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] blackknightavalon:
The only issue I ever had was the front-facing camera. Most everything else works: Data, calling, wifi tethering (using Zombie Dog's ICS workaround). The only thing that's not working is multitouch on N64oid.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ac3theone:
Got a weird crash today, was in the system settings and went to "sound" and it opened and closed right away and I was brought back to the main home screen, when I went to it again it opened fine.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] mr.e.ferran:
Yesterday the phone randomly powered off and it went into a partial bootloop. The phone wouldn't power on past that point so I did a battery pull and figured that I was stupid for simply wiping cache/dalvik and flashing over alpha 3. Last night I did a full wipe and started from scratch and it was smooth all day until about 2hrs ago: I received an incoming call and the phone powered itself off and did the bootloop dance again. Solved with a battery pull. Did this happen to anybody else? By the way, I'm s-off/un-locked so I just flash in cwm if that helps
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] blackknightavalon:
Okay, I've experienced that one with a couple other apps. It's more annoying than anything.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] cerwidwen:
lol I have apparently been using Apollo via BT in the car since the update and didn't even notice until I thought my Google Play Music had changed skins :confused:
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Some_dude36:
Ok more problems . Ringtones are way off normal sounding . they sound all garbled and vol levels way over driven checked dsp and vol+ and nothin weird.

Phone calls are ringing 3 mins after they were made OR not all missing all kindsa calls apparently. And I turned data on to receive a MMS and it worked was fine then shut of data and still had 3g 4g and h showing up on the signal indicator

Alpha 4 sure is glitchy atleast on my device. :/
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] the_mentor:
Did you try to wipe data and see if you still experience the issue?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Some_dude36:
No im not wiping data again ... I always have to reinstall like 30 essential apps :/
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] the_mentor:
Titanium backup is the best app for that ;-)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] blackknightavalon:
Volume+ and DSP don't play well with each other. Delete DSP.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Some_dude36:
Oh boy .... tried that ... when I went to restore titanium couldnt find its own folder where all the data and apks were and I ended up having to extract and then install 30-40 apps manually and that was not fun . :/

---------- Post added at 09:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:27 AM ----------

Thanks for the tip. Ill def try that out. Could that also be why NEITHER seem to affect the sound on the device? not matter how I set the eq , sound levels ect it never changes the sound at all on either app
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] blackknightavalon:
I think so. Neither worked when I had both installed on my Vision.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] gtmaster303:
Not with the free version where you have to reinstall every app manually...
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] tbalden:
I'd go with dsp, otherwise reporting audio or call issues here will be/already is meaningless
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ac3theone:
Just buy it, it's worth it if you flash back and forth between lot of roms
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] blackknightavalon:
DSP hasn't worked for me even before Meltus released Volume+. Meltus' work has been tried-and-true since the pre-codename days of Android.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] edwardng:

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] inkling:
Hmmm, thanks for the replies re the keyboard double-tap thing. I've never had it until upgrading to Alpha4. Certainly could be my phone acting funny I guess. Definitely not my fingers, I've determined.
