what a bad news you told me :( I really need

panorama

:(

btw I tried Camera JB+ from play store and there panoramas seem to work fine, thanks, so I can try using it for a while. What a pity stock camera can not be ported in cm, it is a wonderful app :(

about

whatsapp

, this is what I found after some more investigations:

- AUDIO attachments can NOT be played from within the app directly. they can be downloaded (and stored on internal sd) but when I click on "play" nothing happens. playing it from a file manager instead works fine

- VIDEO attachments can be played, but there are some AUDIO PROBLEMS: there is no sound for several seconds, than after going backward or forward a few times or just wait several seconds, it starts. once sounds appears, you can play the video again, and sound is present since the beginning of the video

speaker

problem: if I enable the external speaker during a call, I hear the voice of the caller but there is also a annoying whistle all the time (present also reducing the volume)

last but not least at all, I still have problems with the

external sd card

, I think it is not properly managed.. (and I have already formatted both internal and external sd from cwm)

..I attach some screenshots where you can see that:

1. from ES File Manager I can see both internal and external SD cards

2. from CM settings, the external SD card is seen but I can only see total and available space + I can only unmount the SD, but can not format it (if I am right in my other phone running CM I can also format it!)

3. Media Monkey app (I use it for playing my music) can see only the internal SD card (but all my music is in the external SD!) so for me in this conditions CM is not usable at all right now.. :crying: (in stock it worked fine)

can you confirm there are some problems with the ext SD management or according to the screenshots everything seems fine for you?

thanks and bye all
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] ycke:
I'm also having this problem .The whistle started this week when installing a nightly, probably after the one with the volume fix.

Hope it gets fixed soon, it's pretty disturbing and makes calling with the speaker impossible.

Edit:

This change made the speaker whistle while calling.

I managed to fix this whistle issue by changing the value on line 2867 to 72 instead of 75.

Hope this helps.

Greetings YcKe
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] FcukBloat:
thanks a lot, but can you please tell us also where to change that value if one has already installed the build? i mean in which file? thanks.

ps. in my previous post i did underline just a few words: i see that correctly in web view while in tapatalk i see all my post underlined. hope you see it correctly, only a few underlines! sorry for that. if you see it all underlined in tapatalk 4 then i guess that's a bug and i will notify the developer ;)

Hi Moly82,

I added the file in the attachment. Unzip the attachment and overwrite the existing file in the folder /system/etc/snd_soc_msm.

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] FcukBloat:
thanks a lot all! i spent almost half an hour in looking for the value to change (the editor i was using doesn't have the search function..!!!) then i saw your attachment :p

btw i used your file and corrected permissions but the whistle is still there, even if lower then before.. for you it disappeared with 72? :o

i will try the original value (68 ) and see what happens.. ;)

EDIT: with 68 no whistle.. i think I'll stay with that :)

EDIT 2: can you guys please let me know also if you see your external sd managed as mine? tx

Use poweramp to listen to music. It doesn't reboot.

Gesendet von meinem Xperia T mit Tapatalk 4
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] FcukBloat:
just for your info, I tried several values for the speaker: 68-70-72-75 (of course I changed permissions and rebooted the phone always after making the change) and I confirm the only value that doesn't make my speaker to whistle is 68

of course to make the tests I did always push the voice call at the maximum (take care that sometimes the volume is not at the maximum level by default, so to try if the speaker really whistles you should increase it to the maximum!)

about external SD, I went back to stock to try it: I can confirm in stock, in settings, I can format it, while in CM settings I can't. Also, in MediaMonkey for example, in stock I confirm it can correctly see both internal and SD cards, while in CM it can only see internal one (attaching some screenshots.. if interested you can compare them with the previous one I shared taken in CM)

..so in conclusion I think there are some problems with ext SD card management in CM!

bye all!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Destroyer706:
For me the value 72 is perfect. I get no whistle with it

Exactly! I used to have on avg 1.5 reboots per day. Since upgrade to a recent nightly, with the same usage pattern I have uptime = 85 hours, and counting...

Also battery life has improved a lot I think, it takes me easily through the day now, which was not the case before.

Thanks to Tilal and any other contributors...
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Mortimus:
I stream music from google music 8+ hours a day, 5-6 days a week over bluetooth, I still get like 12+ reboots a day :/
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Kali-:
instead of waste lot of time to reboot the phone use tinymix to change audio on the fly

adb root

adb shell

tinymix

this will show all mixer path

identify the one u want to change and get ctl (first column)

to change

tinymix <ctl> <newvalue>

to make it permanent value should be changed in the config file

i didnt verified in call case, but i'm pretty sure when call start the config value are used, so value must be changed when call is already started
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Supersonic335:
I had too much reboots when listening to music too,but on 10.2 not a single reboot when listening...
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] FcukBloat:
Nobody can tell me something about the ext sd card management i spoke about a few post ago and the audio problem in videos? i love cm but i can't use it like this :(

Grazie!!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] kerberizer:
Not really an answer, since I've never formatted the SD on the phone, nor am I using WhatsApp, but... 1) Have you tried formatting the SD card on a PC? Formatting with the official tool of the SD Association might be a good idea anyway. 2) About the video issues, have you tried another app to handle the videos, e.g. VLC?

Hope you find a nice solution to your problems! Good luck! :good:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] FcukBloat:
Thanks for the answer!

About the sd i did format it on a win pc and didn't work properly, then i formatted it from cwm (from storage settings it didn't allow me to do so) and gave me that problem (mediamonkey doesn't see the external card and from the settings again i can't format it)

About the videos, i tried mx player, vlc, and stock video player: all have the same problem ;(
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] kerberizer:
This may sound like a stupid question, but are you sure that SD card is not defective in the first place? Does it work on your PC, for example? Have you also tried a different card in the phone? Not too often, but incompatibilities between specific cards and readers do happen sometimes.

Is that problem specific to only WhatsApp? Do you have problems with the video playing in general?

P.S. Do you encounter these problems on the original Sony ROM too?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] FcukBloat:
Sd card and audio in videos work perfectly in stock jb ;)

About sd behavior, You can see comparative screenshots taken with stock and cm in my previous posts

About no sound in videos, that's not whatsapp related, i have always problems

(the problem i have in whatsapp is a different one, are the audio attachments that don't start)

Btw I'll do more tests and acquire more screenshots as soon as i have some spare time ;)

Tx bye

Same here. Streaming music over BT is still unstable. Although I have to say that when I did not have 3g connection due to network outage I did not have that many reboots.

For the rest the ROM is stable. I only get reboots when playing music over BT.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Duvel999:
Could you share your file? :good:

72 still gives problems, I think I need 68 also.

Never had this whisteling since the last Nightlies...:eek:

Hi to all. I have installed this rom and all is working well, but the usb storage in cwm doesn't work; my pc always search for a driver that it can't be found. How to resolve this? Thank you.

Since i flashed nightlies update for volume i get a real annoing sound while doing calls with externel speaker. Somebody with the same problem?

And how do i change my ringtone? Not even audiko changes it.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] FcukBloat:
See my post at the top of this page that file fix that problem
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] FcukBloat:
OK I'm on official 11/aug build right now and could check something more about my issues. here is what i found.

ext sd card problems: i confirm i still have some problems with it, mediamonkey app can't see it (in stock jb instead it sees it properly).

i tried also Apollo and with it ext card is correctly seen, so i would say it is app related so, but then i can't explain myself why in storage settings i can't format my ext sd card, and can't see usage details (videos, pictures etc) so i think something in cm is definetively wrong about external sd card management (please see attachment). in stock jb settings i can format it without any problems, see details etc

no audio in movies problem: i tried several video formats and players. actually it seems i only have problems with .mp4 movies. with those, audio is not there, i have to wait some time to get it (same problem with all players).

other movie formats instead are OK (avi, mpg, etc). so problem is not so big actually

last thing, i don't know if i have issues with 3g data connection or everything is normal: when in 3g, sometimes i see a symbol i have never seen with other roms/phones, i see "DC" instead of "3G", "H", "H+" etc, please see attachment.

what you think?

thanks all bye
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] lexman098:
Your snd_soc_msm_2x technique is good for fixing the speaker buzz and low BT volume actually. I can't find a set of values that works to fix *both* though. Do you know exactly which section fixes the buzz and/or BT volume?

Edit:

Found it finally, the buzz is solved by changing the digital volume to 68 in:

SectionDevice

Name "Speaker"

Comment "Speaker Rx device"

Hopefully this isn't actually tied to the BT volume. I'll report back if it is.

DC stands for DCHDSPA which is a faster version of HDSPA. That's a good thing :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] FcukBloat:
Thanks a lot tilal, so that's good :) and only pending big problem (if confirmed) is the ext sd card one. Can you confirm for you it is the same? (i mean in storage settings you don't see usage details and you can't format it). So at least i can understand if i am the only one with that strange behavior..

Thanks again bye!

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] kerberizer:
Ah, so I finally got it. There isn't any option to format the external SD card, indeed, and yes, its contents are also not analyzed. It's the same with CM 10.2 now that I checked. As for the reasons why it's that way, I'll leave to the more experienced folks to answer.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] FcukBloat:
Thanks for the answer so there must be something wrong with mediamonkey in cm dunno.. Btw i see 4.3 by tilal is getting very stable so i will switch to cm10.2 soon :) byee

Inviato dal mio LT30p usando Tapatalk 4
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] kerberizer:
You're welcome. ;) Yes, judging both from what other people write and from what I tested briefly myself yesterday, CM 10.2 is indeed much better, stability-wise at least. In CM 10.1, even after the "random reboots" fix, playing music was still leading to reboots very often. CM 10.2 seems rock stable in this regard. I found even DSP working reliably, again unlike 10.1, although it introduces a lot of sound glitches, but that may be because the CM 10.2 code still needs a lot of work. And, as I noticed you were asking about the panorama in another thread, Focus in CM 10.2 now seems to work as well (although it also has bugs that need fixing), and that means you get the equivalent of Google's PhotoSphere. Of course, for all this we must thank the wonderful developers at FreeXperia, and tilal6991 in particular for mint. :highfive:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] FcukBloat:
Thanks! i tried cm10.2 seems very promising :) found some problems, will report in that thread :) of course I'm thankful to all people working on the project, as soon as i find a good and stable release to live with, i will donate to the people responsible for it as i always did :p (right now I'm back to stock because of the above mentioned problems i found ;( )

Byeeee

great rom

I did a project for a friend last night, setting this rom up on new in box Xperia T he ordered off of eBay. our goal was to give him the experience of a $650 phone for 300 less. I had never done fastboot before using the Android SDK. using the custom Sony drivers -- could not get this to work on Windows 8 - 64 bit.

Had no problem on my netbook running Win XP. I believe I could have got it to work on my Mac via Terminal as well.

Anyway -- he doesn't stream music over BT, so we are ok there. The ONLY problem we are having is -- under input and language the Google Voice Typing (sorry if that's not the official name) does not work. it FC's any app you try to use it in.

So for now I disabled it. Is there any hope of getting this to work, or should we just use the Dragon app or some other?

BTW, we are using the 10.1.2 stable build for Xperia T (mint)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] strike3:
want to do a self-update here......

once we activated Google Now on the Xperia T with CM 10.1.2 -- the force quit errors with the voice type button went away :cyclops:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Kpyto:
Hello!

Anyone noticed that "broadcast messages" always working in CM 10.1?

I mean - working always, ignore "off" state in Settings and Messaging settings.

Not really annoying bug, but I got a new message at any subway station twice a day :)

P.S.: Is there some working solution for video feachure in Instagram? Can't see it :( Maybe thats because hardware video decoding broken?

P.P.S. Just surprising thats in CM 10.2 (Android 4.3) Instagram video working :) But battery time weird...

Thanks for answer :)

[MENTION=2492127]Kali-[/MENTION], thanks a lot for your efforts! Just to make sure I get it right, are these the commits that make up this build: 48643, 48644, 48697, and 48698?

Also, I'm really glad to see that the userspace HID driver has made it to 10.1 as well, but I'm also noticing that its config is not enabled in the respective arch/arm/configs/cm_blue_*_defconfig files. Is this intentional? I have actually just compiled it in too, and it doesn't seem to cause any trouble (and does what it's supposed to do) -- at least for mint, that is (unfortunately, that's the only device I can test with my keyboard right now).

Many thanks again for your hard work!

My rigorous testing routine of putting on a music track, swiping through to the next few and then starting the camera didn't crash the phone. That means this ROM is a bajillion times better than it was before. And that's official
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] kerberizer:
I can also confirm that the problems, where the phone previously rebooted on start of music playback or switching between tracks, seem to be completely resolved by the experimental build. No specific to this build issues encountered so far as well. Kudos! :good:

I installed BetterBatteryStats to see partial wakelocks of that rom. I saw that the process "*backup*" (called by Android system) was using a lot of CPU and it was draining my battery. I disabled it from settings menu and now the battery works well; it drops in 1 day (it drops in 6 hours before)!

PS: I'm not using experimental build!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] _Raziel666:
Kali-, it seems that this experimental build is stable enough, but since I installed it I've been hearing complaints on the other side of the line about the call quality - some say I can be barely heard, others say there's an echo. Can't test it for myself though!

I'm curious about other people's experiences from calls.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] kerberizer:
I tested it both alone with two phones and with another person, and we couldn't find any call quality deterioration here.

BTW, another thing worth noting about the experimental build is the larger amount of available memory. While previously it was 802 MB, now it's 858 MB, or 56 MB more.

ps. do you know if the changes included in the experimental build are now merged also in normal nightlys?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] thedisturbedone:
Just tested the experimental build. No such issue for me.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] kerberizer:
Unfortunately, I just had a conversation over the phone with another person, and he complained of hearing his own voice as an echo. He called me twice, so it's not very unlikely to be because of line problems, and I've never had such complaints before testing the experimental patches. If there's anything that can be specifically done to debug this issue, I'd be happy to assist.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] FcukBloat:
i tried experimental build and latest nightly (25/aug) in this order. for those interested experimental changes are not included in the official nightlys yet, so i came back to experimental build. i am not using it for long now but seems great :)

i just had one kind of reboot i had never seen before (blue screen + reboot) in the first couple of minutes of usage immediately after first boot, than no more reboots so far.

speaker whistle is still present but easily fixable changing correct file in /system/etc/snd_soc_msm (set value to 68, don't know why it wasn't corrected yet..?? )

i too noticed the more ram available, and most important it seems this build fixed all the problems i had with whatsapp attachments..! :) (they were still present in 25/aug nightly instead, so could that be a kernel problem?)

can't say anything about voice quality in calls yet, i just made one phone call and everything was good.

will let you know how it goes..

i am planning in staying with cm now (i miss the stock camera quality but i love cm simplicity and clearness and features too much!) so if i won't change again my mind in the next few days i will soon donate to fxp team :)

(can you please confirm if tilal is part of fxp team or not and in that case i should make two separate donations fxp+tilal?)

thanks all again and great job!!
