I would like to make a huge apologies and correct myself. im using cm 10.1 and the games arent working at 10.1. But they worked for me at cm 10. At the moment im testing how the games will work for me at cm 9 and cm 10 to see any diffrence. Again im very sorry if i missled you casuing any confusion or waste of time. Ill post the result of my little research in a couple of hours.

cheers

Result of testing games in diffrent roms

In my research i tested i 3 roms:

1. Atrix-MROM-ICS by mmontuori (CM 9)

2. Epinter's CM 10.

3. Epinters CM 10.1 which is currently my daily driver ( yes i know its not supposed to be.)

All games are tested on roms that have the lastest 3.1.10 kernel! ( besides cm 10 that cm 10.1 kernel update does not work for him).

Games i tested on all roms:

Leuage of Shadows

Jungle Heat

GTA III

Throne Rush

Clash of the Olympians

Results:

CM 9:

Leuage of Shadows - Game starts to load but app crashes right before loading base.

Jungle Heat - works perfectly, loads fast, no lags with touchscreen doesnt crash at all.

GTA III - Game does not load.

Throne Rush - works perfectly, loads fast, no lags with touchscreen doesnt crash at all.

Clash of the Olympians - works perfectly, loads fast, no lags with touchscreen doesnt crash at all.

CM 10:

Leuage of Shadows - Game works perfectly, loads fast, no touchscreen lags, phone does not boots.

Jungle Heat - Works perfectly, loads fast. not touchscreen lags,

GTA III - Game works perfectly with a few minor lags.

Throne Rush - Works perfectly, loads fast. not touchscreen lags,

Clash of the Olympians - Game start menu loads fast and stedy but game itself get stuck at Loading screen.

CM 10.1:

Leuage of Shadows - Game rarely loads, most of the time if i just press the app from app drawer it boots my phone automataclly.

Jungle Heat - Game works with alot of touchscreen lags, after 3-4 min phone freezes and stop working until i pull battery.

GTA III - Work Perfectly witha few minor lags.

Throne Rush - Game work with alot of touchscreen lags untill app crashes after a few min.

Clash of the Olympians - Game barely loads and if it does, there are alot of touchscreen lags. Mostly game get stuck at loading screen.

Conclusions:

Ok so i though games dont work only on cm 10.1 but apprently on every rom i had an issue with a diffrent game. I noticed most games work on cm10 and the defenetly dont make the phone boot automataclly, I do remember that when i used cm 10 rom i had the most games working perfectly.

Please inform me if anyone needs additional info, test more games with diffrent kernels or anything else. Im willing to do anything and to help as much as i can to solve this problem. It's the only issue that prevents this rom and kernel being 100% stable for my use.

Again sorry for the misunderstaning about saying im having problems with cm 10 and i meant cm 10.1.

Thank you so much for your work on the kernel, its amazing!

Cheers,

Futher Research

Okay so i took this research one step forward and i tested krystianp CM 9 rom. Should've tested ealier on this insted on Mrom cm 9, my apologize.

Anyway, i found out some interesting stuff:

First i tested all games (Leuage of Shadows, Jungle Heat, GTA III, Throne Rush, Clash of the Olympians) on cm9 rom with 2.6v old kernel.

My findings:

Leuage of Shadows - starting the game reboots the phone after a min of play.

Jungle Heat - works perfectly, loads fast, no crashing or anything.

GTA III - Game does not load.

Throne Rush - works perfectly, loads fast, no crashing or anything.

Clash of the Olympians - works perfectly, loads fast, no crashing or anything.

Then i flashed lastest kernel 3.1.10 24/4/14 by krystianp and tested all games again:

Leuage of Shadows - Works perfectly, loads fast, no lags with touchscreen doesnt crash at all.:good:

Jungle Heat - Works perfectly, loads fast, no lags with touchscreen doesnt crash at all.:good:

GTA III - Works perfectly, loads fast, no lags with touchscreen doesnt crash at all.:good:

Throne Rush - Works perfectly, loads fast, no lags with touchscreen doesnt crash at all.:good:

Clash of the Olympians - Works perfectly, loads fast, no lags with touchscreen doesnt crash at all.:good:

:good::good::good:

All games are working perfectly!

My thoughs on this are that it is very possible that this issue is kernel related with CM 10.1 rom because flashing a newer kenel solved the problem for CM 9.

I hope this information is helpful for anyone, for myself, i cannot give up on CM 10.1 simply because many other games require 4.2.2 and also i prefer CM 10.1 over CM 9. But if you wish to enjoy your smoothness in games mabey you should consider using CM 9.

[MENTION=4641721]krystianp[/MENTION] please infrom me if you need additional info on this issue, I would like to help as much as i can.

Good Day.

does anyone experience a smooth video recording?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] andresrivas:
Yes, but autofocus is a PITA, making the videos a mess

[Atrix 4G Android Development] saldirai:
well for me, the recording stutters every time i move the camera (which happens most of the time) and it records nearly no sound which i relate to the noisy audio recording.

to sum up audio & video recordings are problematic in this kernel but it gives hardware acceleration which chrome etc needs. i guess i can live with no recording :D
[Atrix 4G Android Development] vincey:
I use lgCamera on cm10.1 with the 3-27 kernel and have virtually zero trouble with video quality, frame rate, focusing, or audio. My video settings are 1280x720, 15Mbit bitrate, 30fps, mp4 format, H.264 encoding. Also works great for pics, but using the flash often isn't the greatest.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] saldirai:
thanks, that app was better for me, too. yet again it's not as fluent as GB videos.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] lehjr:
One thing to note with the camera is that GB had production quality libs, but since ICS was never officially released, all we have is lab quality libs at best. Instead of saving time and resources by reusing camera code from the XOOM, they chose newer code, at least some of which was for the Tegra 3, and this is evident with the "stereo mode" found in the kernel drivers, something that now ignores the OTP (one time programmable) data. OTP data stores the original factory calibration info of the imager. The XOOM also uses the same rear camera, but a different flash and front camera. This would be easy to compensate for in the source code for the libs, but hacking and swapping libs after they are already compiled would be quite a task.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] vincey:
If you haven't already done so, try lowering the bitrate down. I should also note that I am using the external SD card for storage. (class 10). While it's not as good as a new top of the line phone, it certainly at the point of being very usable considering all the hurdles and progress they made.

Hello Krystian,

Is any news for the kernel update?

Moreover, do you still read the bugs spreadsheet on Gdrive? Do you need more logs / outputs from us in order to debug some functionnalitites?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] aaurnab:
Dear krystianp Sir,

My Atrix is slow responding after your last update..it takes 1 -1.5 s to open each app...

Audio stereo recording bug

I have an audio bug, wasn't sure if it was my hardware or not, but now I know it is either ROM or kernel -- I have a stereo recording app (RecForge Pro; but I also get same behavior with another app I tried). It actually can record in stereo using the Atrix's dual mics (apparently there for background noise cancellation). But running CM10.1 with any of the recent kernels from the dropbox. I sometimes get stereo and sometimes get only one channel recording. I just tried going back to a CM10 that I had backed up, and find that the recording app works flawlessly. So it isn't the hardware. I guess I should download a CM9 or AtrICS with a recent kernel to see if it is ROM or kernel, but I'm wondering if anyone else has noticed this issue, and if anyone has a thought on ROM vs kernel?

Also it seems like activity on both this and the CM10.1 kernel has slowed down to a trickle. Has everyone traded in their Atrixes?

Hello,

I found a CM 10,

google voice input Normal operation,

This rom is very Power Consumption!

LINK http://goo.gl/CFXv3R
[Atrix 4G Android Development] andresrivas:
This has been explained several times before:

CM10 Is not the same as CM10.1.

CM10 is android 4.1 and it isn't supported by the kernel dev team. It's kernel is a modified version of GB's one, an thus it doesn't have hardware acceleration, among other things.

Plus, it hasn't been updated in over a year or so

So far the more functional, fast and stable config that I using is:

ROM: AtrICS-v2.0_20140104

Kernel: kernel-2014_04_24_11_42_atrics

Radio: N_01.100.00R_europe_retail_09oct2011

International Atrix d00

Just right now I send a piece of $and to support this brilliant proyect, in my opinion ICS is the future to give the Atrix a up-to-date funcionality with their gadgets (I have it all of them :o )

[MENTION=2810848]andresrivas[/MENTION] I remember this member. he unfortunately is one who asks the questions already answered without reading. I'm surprised he resurfaced.

I know its a long shot, but has anyone tried making a KK build? I mean I know we had issues with 4.3, just curious if those issues really do still exist on 4.4.2 (now .3 until .4 is pushed), or if it is an isolated case that specifically applies to 4.3.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Voldemort:
It would be nice even because Google stated that KK could run on older devices even with small amount of ram... Considering we have 1 GB it should run smoothly...
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Fastrite:
KK runs smoothly on my 3.5 yr old Desire S (still with a few bugs yet to be squashed) with 750mb of RAM with its single core clocked to 1.4-1.6.

I think one of the main problems is with the amount of space in the system partition that is required for KK.

To help with this it might be possible to port or build Slimkat which is a lot smaller as a zip than most other KK builds (40-50mb)...

Of course when the kernel is at a suitable stage.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] andresrivas:

I've managed to run kk on a galaxy ace. And it ran almost as good as gingerbread. So on our phone it should work flawlessly.

Please remember that this is an Android development thread and surely not a cafe where you discuss you can do what.

If you need to settle any thing, please use PMs.

THREAD CLEANED, NOW STAY ON TOPIC
[Atrix 4G Android Development] palmbeach05:
The only real activity so far is just the kernel side of things. I do have good news on the kernel side of things for kk. we should be able to run kk with the 3.1.10 kernel, I mean my DX has a 2.6.32.9 kernel in it.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] guruzen:
So, do we have an alpha rom of kitkat that we could try on our phone with this kernel? If so, kindly let us know. I would be very glad to try it even though if not many things work.

Let us know pls
[Atrix 4G Android Development] napsterr:
hey guys...

how is the kernel development going??

the last state was networks drops... hope you could fix this annoying bug

unfortunately i had to send my atrix to repair service, with the result, they couldn't repair it, so i bought a new Phone (LG G2).

last 0702 kernel comes.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] bobmorsy:
so what's up with today's kernel?

change log?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] krystianp:
First of all, sorry for long absence. I'm having some life hiccups currently. That's why I wasn't active with kernel development.

I removed code that caused hangs (I hope I removed all of it). I also removed emc clock speed limit for camera. This should fix frame skipping on FHD recording (but also rise battery usage). Another thing changed is option to block user wakelocks. I'm not sure it's working at all but you can test it by setting 0 (off) in /sys/module/userwakelock/parameters/usr_wl_enb (default is 1 = on). If it works it could save some juice (especially during night when phone is not used). I don't remember now what else I have changed but I'm waiting for comments.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] r.sorujlall:
mic still doesn't work in calling apps like skype and magicjack and speaker still plays choppy audio in these apps but kernel seems stable. only been 2 hours. will continue to test and report back
[Atrix 4G Android Development] saldirai:
previously mic sound was behind a powerful static noise, but now it seems completely off. a sample:

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/75391717/recording-1073147710.3gpp

other than that, new kernel seems to have a better battery life but we should wait and see. no drops so far. thank you for all your efforts :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] torecdude:
Are you planning to work on the gaming lags issue i reported before?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Mustkeg:
No network drops until now, good deep sleep (1.6%/hr over last 3hrs, with 94% deep sleep)! GPS had a drop but disable/enable worked.

Thanks to your great continuous effort, the Atrix is still my daily driver with no plans of replacing it.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] krystianp:
Nope, at least not until mic issues, data on 4.3 and HDMI on cm is fixed. I also noticed on friends atrix that modified panel settings might cause screen artifacts and general display issues. I'll try to solve that too. There's a lot of work to do before I will get into game lags.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] phoenixgfx:
I don't know what happened.

But battery was about 90% and I had to do a reboot and it went straight down to 1%.

This happened after I installed Xposed Preference Injector.

Charging the battery again and will continue to test the new kernel.

Thanks again Krystian.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] bobmorsy:
I've been wondering why the 3g mode(not 2g) on this phone is so battery consuming compared to other phones...

is it a hardware thing or just the kernel?

cus I can't remember how it was on the stock GB.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] krystianp:
It's not kernel related, there's nothing related to modem mode in kernel. It might be mdm6600 thing. On 2g it's very efficient but on 3g it starts draining a lot of juice.

Mic problems with lateset kernel

Hello, I just tried the 7/2 kernel, and find microphone problems. Neither the front nor back mic work with recording apps (e.g. RecForgePro, RecForge II), and neither the phone mic nor spearkerphone work with Skype. I have reverted back to the 4/18 kernel where these worked, at least intermittently. (with 4/18 Skype would work some times but not others; and RecForge would often record with only one channel in stereo mode, but sometimes would record in full stereo -- a feature that worked routinely with CM10, and still does if I revert back to a CM10 ROM.)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] phoenixgfx:
Weird thing happened. My phone won't charge pass 7%.

Trying to avoid the battery fix.

Don't know if its a hardware problem or kernel related. Reverting to an older kernel for tonight for normal use and will try back the latest kernel tomorrow.

---------- Post added at 12:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:34 AM ----------

Tried installing through Google Play and RecForge 2 is incompatible with ME860.

How did you install (Dirty install or Backup from previous)?

Will try a dirty install and let you know. Skype is working here for me. But havent done any major testing.

UPDATE: I really wanted this to work. So did a clean install and the 7% battery issue isn't there anymore. I suspect it had to be related to one of the Xposed Modules (I'll try recreating the problem later to identify the culprit).

Really want this kernel to work, and very hopeful for a working 4.3 and 4.4 later down. And even Android L. Love this phone and would hate changing device. Even bought a new digitizer because the old one developed some problems.

[MENTION=4641721]krystianp[/MENTION], dude... you are the man. I actually gave up on my Atrix and you came and saved the day. Can you tell us (if possible) if there are any plans for future 4.3 and 4.4 ROMS by yourself.

btw, was on MIUI for a while and saw the new kernel upload and switched back just to test this kernel.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] thecjan:
santajin, MIUI's dev just look at K's last 7/2 kernal, maybe release on 4.7.4 version, but english version was closed.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] rhcohen:
I had no problem downloading and installing RecForge II from the Play Store. My Atrix is MB860, not ME860, don't know if that makes a difference. Also I paid for RecForge Pro, don't know if that makes a difference. Can you download/install RecForge Lite? One obvious thing to check: are you running CM10.1 with this kernel, or AtrICS or CM9? (I'm running CM10.1, and I think RecForge II requires at least Android 4.1)

I wonder what is the difference that makes Skype work on your phone not mine -- all I get is white noise (static) on the skype test call, regardless of whether using speakerphone or regular phone setting, whereas with the older (April) kernels, one or the other of speakerphone or regular phone setting always seems to work (but which one was random).
[Atrix 4G Android Development] todobarato:
First welcome back krystianp,

Fisrt my congrats, the 3 Motorola logo was solved:good:, I have installed in CM9 and CM10, all works beautiful, only the MIC issue .

You have recommend to install alsa, to test on the system, has bring something the alsa? Should we install it.

Best regards,

Ferenc.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Atrix 4G Android Development] krystianp:
I just removed commit that caused logo issue, it wasn't important for us. You can ignore alsa app for now. I prepared new kernel, please test it in skype or other voip apps. If there's no change then replace /etc/audio_policy.conf with the one attached to this post. I'm waiting for comments.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] saldirai:
it went back to the previous state i told. even if i hold it close to my mind, this happens:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/dq2gk0teic2sanf/recording422902091.3gpp
[Atrix 4G Android Development] rhcohen:
Hello Krystianp, yes this latest kernel behaves differently from the one from 07/02: Skype audio seems to now work most of the time. The first time I try the skype test call with either the phone or speakerphone, I get a silent recording, but after that it seems to work consistently. There still is the nagging issue that, if not using the speakerphone, if I hold the phone too close to my head the audio (both input and output) cuts out. It seems the proximity sensor is cutting off the audio; this has been consistently the case at least for months (maybe always?).

There is also a change in the recording apps: Using RecForge II I can now make a recording with the rear microphone. Sometimes in stereo; sometimes only one channel works -- seemingly random, and less reliably stereo than with the 4/18 kernel. Using the FRONT microphone however, I get (as I did with the 7/2 kernel for either front or rear microphone) no recording, and the "cpu meter" in RecForge is overloading. So something is still amiss. Note with the 4/18 kernel I can successfully do recordings with either front or rear mic, though only sometimes in stereo.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] krystianp:
[MENTION=4707810]saldirai[/MENTION] [MENTION=5268654]rhcohen[/MENTION] do you use cm10.1? If yes then please test cm9. I'm working on cm9 and I have to be sure that this is common issue on both releases.

3 Logo problem on boot solved, triggers 2 logo charge off problem to resurface. its seems like its one or the other lol
[Atrix 4G Android Development] todobarato:
Hello,

I have installed and tested in CM9, it works with last Skype, with the new kernel and the new sound Conf.

Not works in speaker mode, in normal phone mode world perfectly, the issue with the proximity sensor ifs not present.

In CM10 isn't working.

Thanks,

Ferenc.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] rhcohen:
I think recforge II requires Android 4.1 or better. The original RecForge Pro does not, but also lacks the dual VU meter feature which makes it fast to test whether recording is in stereo (so I have to actually make then play back a recording)... but will do (maybe not though for another day or two, since I would want to do a full backup first). Better to check with CM9 or AtrICS?

I should have mentioned, I did not notice any difference between the two sound confs.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] krystianp:
New kernel prepared. Now with that kernel I ask you to use AlsaMixer. Switch to different mics in Analog Left (for speaker) or Analog Right (for headphone). Use it only when there's no audio input. You can try switching back and forth between head and speaker until it breakes and then AlsaMixer.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] rhcohen:
I''m not understanding just what test(s) you would like us to run with AlsaMixer. Can you clarify?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] krystianp:
Not tests rather find out which are correct alsa settings for skype to work. Noises were caused by unsupported frequencies which are dynamically changed depending on connection quality (which is not the case for standard recorder). Now I suspect that Skype is not using proper mic config, because switching back and forth headphone/speaker button randomly causes mic to stop working and then working again. So we need to find out which alsa setting has to be changed (and to what state) to bring back mic for Skype.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] rhcohen:
Aha. I see. With your latest two kernels and no fiddling with alsa, I am finding that Skype works "most of the time" following an initial failure -- that is, start up skype, make a test call on the headphone, get silence the first time, but it seems to work well after that; ditto for speakerphone. Seemingly a big improvement over the April kernels where there was about a 50% probability of noise.

Could these settings also be related to the problems I am having with the recording apps? To review, with the earlier (April) kernels, with either front or back mic, one channel of stereo would always work but the other was more or less random (worse with front mic). With the latest two kernels, same behavior for back mic, but front mic seems to be a more catastrophic failure, with the "cpu meter" within RecForge indicating overload and no recording being made.

Finally can you point me (and other testers) toward a guide to using AlsaMixer? The app comes with essentially no documentation, and I haven't a clue what settings to try changing (and from what to what). Thanks.
