I checked the gps.conf, i could not find any mention of "internal gps"

The GPS itself is working, i've tested it with "GPS Test" and i got lock on sattelite. The problem i'm having is with Location Services, even WiFi based are not working.

As for the Home/Genius buttons, i was unable to get the keys to work using those fixes :eek:

I've used System App Remover which can remove System Apps (requires Root) to remove the WiFi Calling function.

about location services: is gps.latte.so in /system/lib/hw yet?

Edit : question is related this module was built afer the rom was built ... Probably it must work with a new build.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] zeubea:
Well, as told above the issues is this: gps.latte.so was built after the rom, and I suppose librpc and other libs are referenced. So rebuild the rom will fix this.

Meanwhile, it is weid Locations Services was working for a short time ...
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] MC MILK:
sorry for all my question but i have one more

i installed link2sd and app remover and one use superuser and when i try to add in the superuser FC...

some idea?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] ThEuNdYiNg1:
i probably did a custom location, im not sure what i did, i was messing around with it
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] zeubea:
well weekend or so I will do a new build including keys fixes.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] ThEuNdYiNg1:
im going to guess dalvik-cache, try deleting your dalvik-cache
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Sefy:
This is what i've done:

Neither Foursquare, Weather Widget or Google Maps is finding location a location.

If i use GPS Test, it is detecting sattelites and co-ordinates.

Let me point out that all the Location Services application, are working on my ICS tablet which has no GPS module at all.

Freaking jelly-bean is now coming :|

It's almost the same as ICS except a few new features, do you think we can boot it with this kernel?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] zeubea:
It is very possible for 4.1, yes (only especulative but informed opinion). And if it is beeing somehow possible from 2.3 to 4, why can not be from 4.1 to 5 too? Espresso is 512 Mb like another devices with supposed upgradable ICS .
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] ThEuNdYiNg1:
they did say that it was worked on from ics. from what i see is they just updated apps and framework, so its quite a possibility that we can. then again im no expert.

EDIT: I fould some post that are jelly bean system files, seems interesting. im going to see if i can do anything with these.

[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] shahabk818:
whoareyou can you manage putting up together a Sense 4.0 Rom? That should be more compatible with Espresso
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Sefy:
Not sure if it can be considered related, but i would strongly advice of including S2E v2.2.1 (which supports CM9) into the ROM. I've just edited the ROM and put it into it, and after activating (and rebooting), my phone has not had any space issue (its still on 139 out of 145mb) and i've installed loads of applications so far.

Also, compared to my initial install and using Links2SD and other similar tactics (a2sdgui for example), the CM9 is now stable, i've not had a single issue as of yet and my phone is running great (minus of course the known bugs). I'd personally highly recommend including S2E into the ROM from the start, it really does help with the storage in the best way possible.

It's Free and i've attached the apk i've downloaded from the market (v2.2.1).
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] shahabk818:
Can you please remove ringtones and languages (except Farsi/فارسی)? that can free a lot of space, then there would be no need to make a partition on sd card, this rom can be shrink less than 90 mb
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Sefy:
I Strongly disagree with removal of languages from the rom, if you use s2e then you wont lose any size from internal space. Languages however, are good for people over the world who may need them. I need Hebrew for example, and I don't need those you requested but I'm aware that someone might need them. Need to think of other people.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] zeubea:
apps 2 sdcard scripts are not fully compatible with CM9. It is better you use "with caution" and step by step, for example, moving less frenquently used apps, next another ones. It is recommned dont move dalvik cache to sdcard for now.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Dataslycer:
Hey guys, for some reason I cant boot up this rom at all. I get stuck at the booting screen, except it doesn't look like the cm9 booting screen with the new mascot. its just android which looks like its from 1.6 or something...
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Sefy:
I've actually moved everything to SD-Ext partition on my SDCard, and been using it like so since Thursday and so far so good :silly:
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Whoareyou:
not until they get it on the WFS, im not that skilled, i have to use others work with this stuff, the system partition is too big for the espresso, im waiting to see if they can get it booted.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] zeubea:

[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] zeubea:

[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Dataslycer:
Yep, i double checked my bootloader and it says S-OFF with 0.52.0000 hboot so no problem there. I installed this rom on a completely clean wipe, i formatted every single partition I could (well not my sdcard) a couple of times just to be sure and then tried installing this rom many times. Still not working for me.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] MC MILK:

I keep getting rebooted into recovery when I install the OS and reboot. Any ideas?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Sefy:
As was mentioned earlier, do you have enough partition space? this ROM required a big one :cool:
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] biglo:
I just used the stock partition, should I repartition it to a larger size, if so what size should I use? Didn't notice the OP saying anything about the size.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Sefy:
Stock partition won't be enough, you'd need atleast 200mb, i personally took all the Cache partition and put it into the System for a whooping 314mb, but that's me :D

I'm also using S2E v2.2.1 and all my apps are on my Ext partition, and my Data partition is rather left lonely and empty ;)

Everything worked ok for you with S2E? :cool:
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] ThEuNdYiNg1:
what do you mean by that? i didnt have to partition anything for this rom.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Sefy:
I found that the default partition is not enough and I've had loads of issues due to size, only when I increased size of system partition, it worked flawless
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Dataslycer:
I'm not using this rom daily but because I set my system to only about 220 would that interfere with battery life issues and a lock screen problem? Whenever I turned off the screen and turned it back on there would be no lock, nothing to prevent accidental touches even if i set a pattern lock.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] biglo:
Yup, used your apk and thats working fine as well.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] shahabk818:
Any new progress?

It would be really helpful if somebody could make a full tutorial of making partition and using ext with picture! That could help a lot of users:)
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] superatrain:
Changing partitions will have no impact on the battery life. The rom itself maybe, but partition size not at all.

shahabk818: I have rebuilt this rom fixing a few of the bugs (gps, buttons, keyboard lights, function keys) and I'll upload it soon. I'm too lazy to make a guide. Personally, I've been running it without changing the partition size, but I'm planning to experiment with that soon.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] MC MILK:
and what happened with jelly bean?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] superatrain:
Source isn't out yet. Supposedly ICS -> JB is going to be much simpler than GB -> ICS, since most of the device relevant code is similar between the two.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Dataslycer:
Darn.... who is using this rom daily and how is the battery life on it? I played with it for about 10 minutes and it dropped almost 10%.... battery is definitely not going to live through the day as I barely get past 9 hours with CM7.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Sefy:
I'm using the ROM daily since it came out, i found something strange with the battery.

If in the morning i'm at 100%, by the time i reach the bus, it can drop by 15% (about a 10min walk). By the time i reach work (1.5 hours) it can even get as low as 60%

Now the weird part is, when you get to about 3 or 2% battery, that can last like 3 to 5 hours. Once i even kept it uncharged just to see if it would last the whole night and it didn't even lose a percentage. All these are with 3G turned on continually, which i recall is battery killer.

But in-conclusion, i would say, don't really trust the battery meter.

On WiFi only, i've managed to last over a day without charging.

So the battery meter is not so reliable...

---------- Post added at 05:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:21 AM ----------

Is the "Location Services" also fixed? cause while GPS is working, even the WiFi based location services is simply not working with any application.

Oh also, the fixes you are doing, is it possible to have them separately, not as a full ROM flashing? cause i got everything all set-up great, and i'd really like to keep it :D

Anyway, thanks for all the hard work! it's very much appreciated.

the problem is, you guys are running very dated legacy hardware. All the devs have moved onto new devices. I would suggest seeing if there is a device with similar internals to use for help.

Okay im not a tech savvy person here but...

HD2 was able to switch from WinMobile 6.5 to Android to WinPhone 7

Is there anything preventing developers from making an unofficial port of wp7 to wp8?

Is the core structure that vast that we cant repeat history like the HD2?

Who knows, maybe HD2 will be the first to run unofficial WP8 XDD

Just a theory, feel free to debunk me straight away
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barclays:
With the change in kernel, it is nearly impossible i think

HD2 was able to run WP just because it was a WM 6.5 device and WM6.5 and WP7 share the same Windows CE kernel
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pvt_nemesis:
I think we will only be able to get to WP 7.8 due to the CE to NT kernel change

(but even that will hopefully give us the full Skype integration that I want so much and a multitude of other features)
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] guilhermedsx:
Windows Phone 7 and Android have different kernels and both run on the HD7 (or HD2, I don't remember)

This "kernel" talk is complete bull****. Just replace the kernel with one that supports legacy hardware and it's done. Windows RT runs on ARM and our WP7.5 phones are just that. The ones with WP8 too. The ONLY difference is the extra core.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rbrunner7:
What kind of kernel?

I don't understand: What kernel supporting legacy hardware are you talking about here? Where will this come from, who will provide it?

I think we are right at the center of the problem here: Of course Microsoft could provide all kinds of device drivers for WP8 so that it could run on current WP7 phones, but decided against it - probably just too much costly work with almost no gain or even active opposition from manufacturers who want to sell new phones.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goldenpipes:
Yeah its got to be about getting the new devices sold, increase the market share. Besides, The gpu's and ram in our current phones won't be able to keep up with the new devices even when the new core with its native code stuff comes. Its like trying to run a new game on an old computer, it will load up fine but it'll run so slow it'd be unplayable. I believe that wp7.5 is pushing our current hardware to the limits

Hard to say

Right, old computer, like the Lumia 900's that appear in the stores right now, born in factories at most a few weeks ago :)

That's really hard to say without anyone actually trying to run WP8 on a current WP7 phone; on the PC front, Windows 8 seems to be faster on the same hardware than Windows 7. And many times and in many apps the CPU inside your phone is boring itself to death anyway because it has so few things to do.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barclays:
You're talking about this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1483377

HD2 was able to boot Android (linux kernel) just because of the support of HaRET. Nothing can be done on it own.

And do remember that "famous HTC devices that are capable of running HaRET are the QSD8250 based HTC HD2 and a wide range of MSM7xxA based phones like the diamond, raphael and touch pro 2". Right now only the HD2 is still alive and its QSD8250 will be outdated soon.

You're talking about replacement like it's so easy. Changing kernel means every vendor has to rewrite everything from scratch including drivers for their devices. WP8 is designed to run on this new kernel (not the old kernel) so it does not support current devices. That's fair i think.

That's what we call changing (unlike 'changing' on Android or iOS, changing every now and then but nothing's new). Just hope that MS wont change too often.

Anyway, it's just only an announcement. The exact date of releasing WP8 is unknown. Right now, we still holding a device that runs a good OS. And even when WP8 is released, my phone's still doing something 'pretty much WP8' with 7.8 update. And can do that until i can afford a WP8 device or when everyone is switching. But that the story of at least 1 year from now.

"Right, old computer, like the Lumia 900's that appear in the stores right now, born in factories at most a few weeks ago :)"

Maybe not old, but ****ty hardware for sure, that won't run on on the new Windows Phone 8 because its more hardware hungry.

If we could get Windows Phone 8 onto some of the newer android handsets, especially the HTC One X, it would be AWESOME!
