Maps (and, generally, all the apps taking the screen ON) are very 'battery consuming' . Ok, I will wait for your tests for an year :D .... I think I can wait ,,,,,,,, HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU AND TO ALL THE FRIENDS IN THE THREAD ....... (excuse me for capital letters ;) )
[Miscellaneous Android Development] DeX1009:
Hi!

I would like to know a small thing: can I activate a swap partition o the SD although I have already an ext4 partition (which is used with link2sd)?

Then... happy new year to all of you :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] RiPPLE_92:
Greetings AC1963,

first of all happy new year :) ... can you help me do this based on your latest rom 1.4a ?? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1767593

thanks in advance :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ac1953:
Well.... I haven't checked it but .... why not??? :laugh:

I will try and I'll respond to you ASAP. HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] yo9gnc:
i think you were right. battery use atached.

i just reinstalled 1.4a without any battery calibration or something. didn`t use maps just phone calls, only 2g, background data disabled and the battery last for 3days.

i`ll try using g maps again to see if is there something wrong with it.

antoher thing: is there a way to mount and use an ext3-4 partition for data? it seems that there`s not enough space on the device for too many apps.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] nabirosama:
how can you disable background data??? appearently that's what is draining my battery, sometimes it doesn't last 24 hours!!!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] yo9gnc:
settings->accounts & sync->uncheck background data
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mojkano:

hey its been a while since i followed this device but i need to use it now as a media host on my tv. so i got a upnp app ready but i need a way to connect this to my TV or pc Monitor using USB or if possible the 3.5mm audio but i think this only works on galaxy s

so is that Possible ?!!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Alberto96:
Isnt possible. Hardware limit. You can just see your phone screen via android screencast via adb on pc.

Crossposting isnt allowed on xda
[Miscellaneous Android Development] yo9gnc:
`till now it works :)

i will tell you if there`s something wrong.

so ... u 8180 (orange stockholm) works with this rom. 10x.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] daniel910821:
A couple questions

Hi, i'll like to test it on a U8180, but do i need to make a full wipe? or can flash it coming Psyke's version?

And a noob question about GAAPS, do i need to flash it again or it's integrated?

Thanks
[Miscellaneous Android Development] TakisBeskos:
what's the difference between this and psyke's rom ? i can see that there is the same kernel , but there must be a reason for you to make a rom for u8160 . why someone would choose this one ?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ac1953:
This ROM was born as experimental. Then I was 'forced' by many friend to publish it. It contains many features and bug fixing in framework not available in normal CM7 (at least .... until I will release the modified sources). Take in mind that psyke's ROM already includes some of my patches (AC stands for Adriano Carrata and you will find my name in psyke's ROM changelog). Many apps have been modified to solve some little bug and extended (see SMS/MMS and PHONE) to give something more. One of the unique characteristics, as example, is that when a call is received the ring begins when the phone app is switched in foreground and not two or three seconds BEFORE.... But there are a lot of little improvements, you can find the full list in the psyke's thread. I hope I have answered to your question. As I stated, the two ROMs are similar NOT equal. We both build ROM directly from sources, so our ROMs live a parallel life (and when possible the functionalities are merged). If you wish a more recent kernel psyke's ROM is the right choice: if you want something more advanced from the point of view of user interface and framework you might choose mine.

---------- Post added at 12:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:23 PM ----------

I think full wipe it's not necessary. The two ROMs are very similar as basic structure, And, of course, GAPPS are not included. It's forbidden by Google for not official ROMs so psyke and I don't include it in our ROMs
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Enea307:
I have just installed. I think I have to test it now.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Hetfield666:
adriano you MUST do it for u8150 too! you left me alone sigh sob :(
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ac1953:
He, he, I was asking myself WHERE Hetfield was ;).....

I spent a part of my holidays working with the emulator searching to improve the ROM but trust me if I say that to reverse the job in the official repository is a nightmare... First, a few of the improvements was on gerrit from a long time, ma stay there dormant, second, I have modified a lot of sources. Sometimes are little changes, some other time are changes in the flow of messages and synchronizations. I plan to update first my github, so everyone will have access to changes... For the official repository I need TIME... job is very intrusive in my life, as you know. If you want more details, you can PM me on gmail...... and I am sure you will do it :D
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Hetfield666:
no, my delusion since tilal and aorth's epoch is too big!

[Miscellaneous Android Development] mad-tharindu:
I'm on psyke's rom, should I wipe data, before insatall this?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ac1953:
Yes, of course. I think Gingerbread is the best compromise for u8160, so I try to remove all the little, annoying bugs are still present in Cyano

---------- Post added at 05:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:35 PM ----------

As already stated, I think is not necessary. Just wipe dalvik cache (a few apps are different)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] yo9gnc:
i there something wrong with camera autofocus in psyke83`s and also your rom?

if i remember well, at first (psyke`s roms) it worked. or should i ask him ?

u8180 - orange stockholm
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ac1953:
The autofocus is a very old problem, totally solved (at least, I suppose the u8180 doesn't have autofocus). On u8160 camera works without any known flaws (tested just now)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] dhana999:
Audio nice Thanks
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Taki2011:
Sound in setting giving Me Fc !!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ac1953:
FC??? What does it means? And what kind of sound? There are two sound settings: Cyano and device specific
[Miscellaneous Android Development] yo9gnc:
FC=force close (kind of error).
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ac1953:
Ah, OK, thanks. But is quite strange....
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Taki2011:
The sound in the setting menu not in Device setting when i click on it i got Force Close !
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ac1953:
Ok. I'll check, but that is Cyano code, not mine. I have just checked in my phone (u8160) and I don't have any problem. To be precise there are three locations where you can find audio setup:

- Settings/Sound

- Settings/CyanogenMod settings/Sound

- Device settings/Sound

So, could you get a logcat, please, and tell me your phone's model?

Thanks
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Taki2011:
- Settings/Sound And I've u8180
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ac1953:
It is very strange, because that code is totally unchanged. I suggest you a full wipe and a reinstall, even if this is not required if the original ROM is psyke's one (maybe except for the last version). But wait until tomorrow, I will post the MDSUM of the original ROM to exclude zip corruptions
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ac1953:
ROM checksum

For all the friends: follows the ROM checksum

MD5SUM: dfae622e6e4bea5c390efa074a1a3b9b

to be confident about the download. I hope this will be useful
[Miscellaneous Android Development] polac:
This is for?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ac1953:
To check the downloaded ROM checksum and to be sure is not corrupted. On Linux the md5sum program is included in the operating system, on Windows is necessary to download it (you can use Google to find where to download it).
[Miscellaneous Android Development] dhana999:
We wont New update with new themes
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Taki2011:
i checked it and they are the same !
[Miscellaneous Android Development] FounderLeader:
Hi! (Ciao)

I feel really silly evey time I Type English to Italians... still ... dura lex sed lex...

So, I'd like to know someting more about your rom before installing it..

Which GAPPS do you suggest?

Free memory availlable (with GAPPS installed?)

Is GPS working? (for some reason, on my girlfrieng phone with psyke83's mod, it does not:confused:)

Tks in advance!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ac1953:
Yes, it sounds quite strange, but on XDA it's necessary to do it :laugh: . For the GAPPS you can flash the zip referenced by psyke83 in its thread. To be honest, I didn't check the free memory, but I suppose is very similar to the psyke83's ROM, the base is the same (maybe mine occupies a little more memory due to its advances features). For the GPS, I can confirm it is working. I normally use Sygic as navigator and it works fine. Some of the psyke's ROM were not totally working, as far I remember. I hope you will satisfied with this ROM, even if I am still working of it to solve some very stupid issues on contacts. See you (even with PM, if you wish to speak italian ;))

---------- Post added at 02:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:53 PM ----------

Well, if the checksum is the same, we can exclude corruptions. So, i suggest to you a full wipe, a ROM reinstall and a check BEFORE to restore your own apps. It could be useful to get a logcat while operating, so to identify the involved components if the malfunction persists. You have a u8180, so I cannot test the issue directly on the same HW, but the malfunction is really strange, it is first time I see somethink like this. I wait for info from you and I would like to ask to other friends having the u8180 if they are experiencing something like this
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mihaly_n:
I'll be short with a question please:

Ringtones is distorted?

Works on U8180?

Gapps is available?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ac1953:
Ringtones is distorted? -> No, this ROM fixes the issue (remember... audio driver is MINE :))

Works on U8180? -> Not tested personally (I have the u8160), but It seems it works

Gapps is available? -> No. As psyke's ROM you must install it as add-on
[Miscellaneous Android Development] dhana999:
Works huawei u8180 i test it audio nice plz new version release soon
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mihaly_n:
backing up and installing...

thank thank you :D
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mihaly_n:
right now everythings is ok...

perhaps a fix so our phone is detected as U8180?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Enea307:
How to get a higher IN CALL VOLUME ? Thnx

Sent from my U8160
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ac1953:
Well.... this is just one of the new features of this ROM. You must select:

-Settings->Device Settings->Sound->Earpiece

and then select the reference level as you wish. For safety reasons, I don't allow an amplification higher then 6 db.

If for some reasons you will need it, please contact me. An extra amplification implies to modify the AudioFilter.csv

---------- Post added at 03:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:00 PM ----------

Mmmmmh.... a question for you.... Psyke's ROM is able to identify the phone models? If it does, I will study

his code to understand how this result is achieved
[Miscellaneous Android Development] daniel910821:
Psyke's rom makes this check with the same script that get's the mac addres for bluetooth and wifi.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ac1953:
Thanks. I have all his sources, so I'll check it. Maybe I'll do a simple update file for the u8180 owners, without modify the core ROM
[Miscellaneous Android Development] dhana999:
I wait it thanks
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mihaly_n:
Right now... this one is the most stable... like psyke's rom... but the audio is just banging me <3 i'm happy really now :D

[Miscellaneous Android Development] dhana999:

[Miscellaneous Android Development] dhana999:
What about new updates with fixing wifi
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ac1953:
Sorry, what kind of problems do you have with WiFi? As for my knowledge (and my test) it works without any problem. Note that in this ROM the signal icon appears ONLY when you establish a connection so, if you was expecting to see it when the WiFi starts (without any connection active), you will be disappointed. I wait for more info, because I will release very soon a new version fixing the camera lock issue (among some other minor bug fixes)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] dhana999:
Sorry wifi working find now it my home wifi problem i got solution for it thnks hey can you tell how to change call answer style(likes MIUI) :beer::)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mihaly_n:

wifi working no problem

Please specify settings for lock animation and describe better the problem. This is tipically a kernel problem, but I wish to investigate the issue
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ac1953:
New update

Hey folks,

I have just released a new update of my ROM, It is very similar to 1.2 (and, in fact, I have changed only the compilation date, not the version number) but have some interesting features added:

Removed bug random lock camera service

Removed bugs for imediate update names and icons contact/SMS

Automatic switch U8160/U8180 (as requested by many people)

Added in Device/System the management for cache buffer size on read SD

Changed default fonts with Roboto (default font ICS)

The automatic switch script is similar to psyke's one, but the automatic customization is extended to Device Settings (might appear U8180 in the title instead of U8160) and to max camera size (3mp instead 2mp),

Another interesting feature is the integration in the ROM of the read cache size for SD card (same functionality of SDBooster), accessible through the device-specific settings. Last, but not least, the final (I hope) fix of the camera random lock.

If you have on your phone a software like SDBooster or SDIncrease, please uninstall it before to flash this ROM to avoid conflicts.

I will grateful to the U8180 owners if they will give me a feedback, I haven't had the possibility to check the changes for their phone.

Enjoy!!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] dhana999:
Now 8180 users can get 3mp camera or not
[Miscellaneous Android Development] CostynRo:
lets test your rom :D

only 1 question? when you make a new update....the download link is up to date on the main page of your site ?

and one advice: make the site in english if you can :D
[Miscellaneous Android Development] L]e[G:
the download link is the same and upper the logo you find the flag english, try click it lol
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ac1953:
I suppose the reply is YES. But must be checked. You can open a camera app and watch for the picture maximum size. It might be 3mp, if the procedure is working

---------- Post added at 10:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:58 AM ----------

Site is not mine. A friend of mine hosts my ROMs, so your request might be redirected to him :D

But, yes, the link is updated BEFORE to inform you in the thread about the ROM's availability

Font

Hi AC1963

very nice Rom. No problems until now - just the new font isn't good for me because in my favorite app (Sudoku) the numbers are now quite difficult to read.

How can I change font ? Is it possible to copy fonts from your old ROM-zip-file to new one ? And if yes can you tell me which files I have to change?

best regards

Odiad
[Miscellaneous Android Development] daniel910821:
You can chage it using 7zip, or Winrar, and must change the whole folder /system/fonts
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ac1953:
Yes, of course you can. You can follow the hint of the friend, by substituting the full folder with an utility like 7z , or to install the Martino's FontChanger (available on Google Play) to modify each system font you wish. The involved fonts are named DroidSans, in its various types.

See you

USSD malicious code security fix

Hi!

This is the fix to apply to the ROM to avoid potential damages due to the USSD security bug discovered on Android framework.

https://rapidshare.com/files/1182571809/u8160-USSD.zip

Save the file on SD and flash it as a ROM, cleaning the Dalvik cache.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] polac:
Can't download the fix!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] L]e[G:
New fix in first post, there was an error in first update
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Elibl:
Hi, thanks ac1963 this rom is nearly perfect. All the Problems in psyke's rom are solved. pretty good work! The last Major Bug that appears for me is random reboots when using Google navigation. It always happens after about 20 to 30 seconds after starting navigation (doesn't matter if charging or not). It might also occure in google maps (Not tested) it's a known earlier bug from psyke's rom. When you solve this reboot issue i'll call you rom perfect;)

all the best

Gesendet von meinem NexusHD2 mit Tapatalk 2
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ac1953:
I haven't fixed it because I don't use Google navigation, so I didn't know its existance, lol... I will try to reproduce the error, but I need some info, to better focus my tests:

Does this problem occurs with WiFi connection or with phone connection?

Do you use some kind of swap/extended partitions?

Where did you get the Google navigation? Is in psyke's add-on package?

It would useful for me to get a logcat, but you might connect phone to PC and start a logcat session before to activate Google navigation.

All the best and thanks for the bug info
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Elibl:
Sorry i don't use this phone daily anymore. I'll post a logcat in time if it's still nessecary then. If i remember right if gapps wasn't included in your rom i used the official 20111108 gapps? I Don't remember exactly. Need to have a look. It happens with data connection as on the ride;)

Furthermore i mount my sdcard ext4 partition in init.rc directly at boot as data partition but this shouldn't effect this bug at all it was also there before i extended my data partition. I don't use swap.

all the best

Gesendet von meinem NexusHD2 mit Tapatalk 2
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ac1953:
Ok, thanks. I just downloaded from Google Play last version of Google Maps + Navigation and tomorrow I will check phone on the road. If, as you say, the fault occurs in first seconds after the launch, I think to capture the log. If it will not occur, at least I will identify a good memory configuration ;)

I'll inform you about the test results. See ya

UPDATE

-------------

I am just arrived at the office, using Google Navigation :good:

The only problem I detected was the automatic close of the program on 'screen off' event if there is no GPS position fix. So, I must think that your problem, as a few others reported (especially on u8180 with 3mp camera enabled), is strictly related to memory management. As you know our device has very little memory available. As reference, on my device I have the base Cyano install with Google Maps (not the full Google package, only the Maps) and the following memory configuration:

Compcache - Not active

Free memory on startup - 82MB

Swap partition - 128 MB

Extended partition - 128 MB

With this configuration phone doesn't show any problem with maps. I suggest you to align your configuration with this one (you can create the swap partition with ClockworkMod and enable it with the functionality you will find in device-specific section of settings). Of course you MUST to backup the content of your SD card on PC and then to restore it after the new partitioning. I wait for some feedback
[Miscellaneous Android Development] L]e[G:

Hello, recently I've started using this ROM and so far I am very happy with it :) BUT (there's alwas "but", isn't it) I have troubles using link2sd, is anybody using this app and have it working? I had no troubles using link2sd on psykes' ROM... or can anybody recommend similiar app which is guaranteed to work? :)

TIA...
