Official Update & Video shooting quality

Hi all,

i noticed that New 4.2.1 K860i_1_S_2_003_0097_130807 stock ROM released, what is difference with previous 130624 ROM ??

i using 130624 ROM about 2 month found the stock ROM shooting video will get 3GP video file instead of MP4 file... 3GP video file sound quality so bad...:rolleyes: :eek: :( Anybody know what apps can install in my phone that can shooting MP4 video ??
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Silesh.Nair:
It is the same in 130807.

Editing media_profiles.XML under system/etc folder will allow you to record as mp4. Requires a reboot. Not sure, if it makes any difference to the sound quality. You can try.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mszi:
Hope this helps.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] coolkillermax:
the same with previous 624 ROM？

Edit which 3gp word？see picture attached have alot 3gp words... change all the words or ？:confused::confused:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Silesh.Nair:

Thank you my Genius [MENTION=235569]finch[/MENTION].sh.itbreak, change to mp4 video success :cool::) But after tested the video sound quality really very bad compare with my Old device = Samsung Galaxy s advance (Dual core phone) that samsung mp4 video sound is better... :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :(

Any idea how to improve the video sound quality less noise & more clear sound ??
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Silesh.Nair:
Try changing the audio codec (aac) as follows and see if it makes any difference.

Bitrate- 128000, 256000 or 320000

Sample rate - 44100

Channels-2

Reboot to make changes stick. You have to play around with values till you find something satisfactory.

Search xda for media_profile.XML edits. There are tons of threads.

Help! Lenovo k860 problem

Help please! I recently got a lenovo k860 and did the apk root using Exynos apk to root. I also downloaded the Blackmarket apk and happened to download the Dr. Beats by Dre beat making app. At some point while downloading it said that it was "Upgrading Android" i didnt trust it because i upgraded it to its latest firmware. (4.0.0 or 4.0.1) I took out the battery and turned my phone back on but only flased the Lenovo logo and stayed there. It never froze on the logo but it remained. So far all i can do is go to 2 of its recovery modes and have tried to reboot and and reset user data. Please help in any way possible. I had my phone for only a month and this happened. Please help.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Silesh.Nair:
Download a stock szb and flash from bootloader. Check the OP for a few links.

Create a folder called sdfuse in the root of your external sdcard and drop the szb into it.

To reach bootloader mode, power off phone and then press volume up & power button at the same time. Choose the second option -> sd update. You will loose all your data on the phone.

You have to put it in the sdfuse folder, else it will not work.

Create a folder in your

Hi!

I own a lenovo k860i-version, and I have a question. Does anyone tried to use 128gb sdxc as external memory card in current model? In tech specs mentioned 64gb card support, but maybe 128gb will work? I wanna try, but don`t wont to throw in trash 100$. If device don`t support 128gb, I will buy 2x64gb instead of 128gb. But it would better to use one 128gb, than 2x64gb. Thanks for reading and I hope reply.:D
[Miscellaneous Android Development] coolkillermax:
Good try, hope u success & give us good news... :cool::)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] exorcyts:
Unfortunately I found the answer and it`s "no". It won`t work, on other phone models based on android os if you put put a bigger capacity memory card than is mentioned in tech specs, you will be able to fill only supported capacity, if you fill more than mentioned in docs, device does not recognizes SD-card. Other words: Support 64gb - SD 128gb - available only 64gb. But there is one more thing: what if I cut 128gb card on two equal partitions: 2x64gb, may this help?:cyclops:

a few questions about flash process for k860

(from rom instuctions:)

Update Method:

1. Create a new Directory name: /sdfuse in your SD card;

2. Copy ROM with .szb extension to the new directory (keep only one file in the directory);

3. Press Power+VolumeUp button together until Menu appear;

4. Using Volume buttons to scroll to "SD update" and select using Power button;

5. Just wait till it complete and reboot (be patient). DONE!

read the entire lot of posts again and feel a bit more informed :)

i think i might try the oem english rom - however the instructions included leave me with a few questions in relation to the quoted instructions:

primarily i am wondering if you press power+vol DOWN button that you get a different menu:

0. board test

1. current test

2. rf data

3. test flow

4. erase user data

5. copy pre-source

6. reboot
​

so - what is this menu for? i'm not sure i'm understanding especially since many of the instructions i have read before for rom flash include erasing the phone before flashing a new rom. is it necessary to erase the phone before installing this new szb from /sdfuse ? o

following the instructions pressing power and volume UP, i get the following options:

mode a

0. rf test

1. sd update

2. usb update

3. recovery

4. ap debug on

5. ap debug off

6. reboot
​

taking the instructions literally, i'd not be erasing any data prior to flashing or doing anything. so should i just go straight to the vol up menu and sd update, or do i need to erase some data first (on the vol down menu?). sorry, bit confused :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] vladog8:
No need to erase anything, just follow the instructions, do titanium backup first, if you get " fail boot loader" error message re-format your SD card with FAT32, 16K cluster re-try again as jbctiong said.

Thats all i think
[Miscellaneous Android Development] karLcx:
thanks for the clarification :)

i know i said i'd install the oem english rom, but changed my mind and went for the cm10 port. really excellent rom, although the camera isn't working - so i'll have to keep an eye out and hope for a version 3 soon. everything else seems fine so far, though!

edit: and now camera started working. no bugs!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] k1llerm:
i try it also last night , also the camera at the begining didnt work but i like the original lenovo camera app :) also i get lower benchmark scores than the original rom ! antutu 12300 from 15800 and quadran 4150 from 5750 :) that means the cm10 is slower from the original ! i go back to the oem :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] karLcx:
i think the benefits of jellybean outweigh the slightly lower benchmark results when compared to ics. i really hope there are further releases of cm for this handset as there are apparently a few bugs. after 24 hours of fairly heavy use, i've had it restart on me a few times, had some bluetooth issues and had the launcher crash on me. but it's an unofficial port, so bound to be a bit odd at times. perhaps it's because i was having so many 'unsupported handset' resunts in google play, which magically disappeared with cm10. still worth it, imho :)

hardware + oem rom perfect

Hi !

I was.written two times that the last 4.0.4 factory clear oem rom is perfect but somebody things that maybe have anybody else better

At this moment 4.0.4 works without bug and anything running quick. And so easy that I could do the process alone.p

Why?

The answere is the hardware construction. This k860 were optimized by lenevo for the factory oem android because this is the base of the lenovo frame above it.

I think You will not be able to find better rom than 4.0.4 oem so far...

P.

,
[Miscellaneous Android Development] karLcx:
true enough, and fair enough. i guess it depends on what you want from your phone. i prefer to be up to date, even if things go a little awry on the odd occasion. i'll reflash when a new version comes out, but the current cm10 v2.0 rom is stable enough to be usable even if it isn't perfect.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] jbctiong:
Thanks for posting the clear menu for everyone.

To my understanding, for flashing of ROM you goto 2. SD update (Power+Vol+) and for clearing previous data goto 4. erase user data (Power+Vol-).

Though it is not compulsary to erase data before flashing ROM (some ROM will auto erase your data and to me it is a good practice), it is always recommended to wipe the previous data for a clean flashing to avoid unforeseen problem caused by the residual data.

It is always reminded to do a Backup b4 flashing if you do not wish to lost your data.

---------- Post added at 03:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:00 AM ----------

I can understand how you feel. I realized that too but it is not a concern to me if the phone works well.

The oem camera (S3camera.apk) is only workable in the official ROM as understand that it is build from the base ROM.

It does not work on most of the English ROM.

Lately there is a fix for S3camera.apk on CM10v2.0 by zuncun the author.

I will pull a link when I'm back from work. But it may be still a beta version.

Sorry , it is not ready yet.

A recent std ROM 121212

Iguys / gals ... I recently chanced upon this rom which the cooker claims is based on LePhone released builds but that has been modified for Play store, no branding, and purportedly improve battery life. I have tried this rom for a day and can say that its ok although I have not done exrensive regression tests on it.

Here it is in Baidu's cloud..

http://pan.baidu.com/share/link?shareid=157701&uk=2419056304

And the origin of this rom is this post

http://bbs.lephone.cc/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=431945

Update 1: Still working well. GPS works well with GPS Status & Tools app. Charged normally to full charge. Calls MO MT ok. Wifi works like a charm. Hint: for those roaming into a country where Play is restricted ... use your home SIM when downloading from GP store after reflash etc. Wifi+home SIM and the rest is history.

Enjoy.

hi jbctiong, I tried the lidroid rom above... it probably is meant for people who don't need the Play store critically. The reason I say that is because many of my 'important' apps are flagged as 'not compatible with this device' after I updated with that rom.

If you are referring to the contacts in your Google account, first you have to set up your Gmail and do a contact sync.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] jbctiong:
Yes, you are right it is not a Full market.

This ROM is closer to the original ROM hence the S3camera is working but somehow the region could be affecting the full market.:(

As you said, if market is not crucial to the user it is quite a good ROM to consider.

tnx a lot)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] relevant_placeholder:
I'm sorry about that. I found this comment by accident as I monitor the main thread more often. The ROM linked is sort of a proof-of-concept for me, it was my personal build (well, re-release)

I always wondered what is the talk about Linaro and wanted to do it myself, thanks to Mr. Linkscue I managed to do exactly that, to extent.

It is a bleeding edge, there are more than 20+ patches (compile error correcting/performance) you have to expect some things to be broken.

That said, I haven't changed a thing on bluetooth part, so it is expected to work the same. Consider one simple fact: Lenovo uses bluez BT stack, CM uses bluedroid BT stack. It is wonder, and only thanks to zuncun and linkscue that it actually works.

It will eventually be re-visited, but not so soon.

---------- Post added at 04:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:49 PM ----------

The ROM upgrade ahappened at the same time as Antutu, I had to clear out this for myself. If you visit the original ROM thread at http://bbs.lephone.cc/k860/t570716/ there is screenshot attached from my early builds on the old Antutu, for K860i.

i just use it for my reference, 4.0 is imo much better than older version. Here are the differences:

Added multitasking and Dalvik VM performance

Revised OpenGL 2.0 benchmark

They seem to have changed the algorithms for CPU/GPU/Memory and storage too..

Anyway, if you are so inclined to see the number difference for yourself, you can use latest CM10.1 from Linkscue and compare it to my build, just give it 2-3 hours for a phone to settle first before executing benchmark.

To sum it up, what you will notice day to day is increase in smoothness of the UI and general multitasking improvement.

Hi. I mentioned earlier that the market fix provided in this thread doesn't solve all compatibility issues. So I decided to make a test and replace all files in the permissions folder with a working one. To my surprise, it actually worked and made every app I tested compatible. But after applying the change, I have issues like force close and various error messages(especially with gapps). I'm not an expert and don't know much about android development, but I guess one issue could be the fact that I took the files from a cm rom and tried it in miui. And maybe if I take the files from a row rom, there wouldn't be any errors. Can someone do me a favor and upload all the files in that folder (system/etc/permissions) from a row rom? And any suggestions on the issue?
