[RAZR i Android Development] Omar-Avelar:
Exactly, applications memory consumption is very weird, and sky0165 if you want to trust the app readings that 1GiB is used at boot fine -- a lot of apps you install run in the background.

Also the way I tweaked the Kernel was to prefer a lot of RAM caching over IO -- this saves a lot of battery on embedded devices, it only goes and writes/reads to IO devices when it is a must. The app you might be using to display free memory might be not taking caches out of the equation -- caches improve performance by using "unused memory" for it, after all free memory is a wasted resource, of course that userspace apps can drop the caching and favor system apps (and that's exactly what happens, and I am not talking about Dalvik VM here).

And on top of that DalvikVM memory consumption can be changed with the following build.prop parameters, if you want to "feel" you got more free memory at the expense of performance then play with the following:

dalvik.vm.heapstartsize=8m
dalvik.vm.heapgrowthlimit=96m
dalvik.vm.heapsize=384m
dalvik.vm.heaptargetutilization=0.75
dalvik.vm.heapminfree=512k
dalvik.vm.heapmaxfree=8m

Specifically lower heapgrowthlimit to 64m and heapstartsize to 5m, changing those might that let you sleep about "memory" numbers. ;)...

"rekey says that its secure, but bluebox says that its not" same with a friends sony xperia active (with cm10).

on a motorola defy (with cm10) rekey says that its secure and bluebox says it too.

[RAZR i Android Development] Omar-Avelar:
I dont find it strange, btw I never said that the tool does not work on ARM arch + CM10, just saying that I don't see actual proof of the patch working correctly on this Motorola's ROM + x86 arch.

Some research rather than just complaining on it "not working" would be best, getting a list of proof of it working on other Motorola ROM's, and then not only that but some other x86 phone too --at the moment I have my doubts that the tool "fix" the way it is implemented is x86 compatible.

And I am not anxious on this bug needing a patch because of what is needed in order to be exploited, personal opinion -- anyone is free to find out why it doesn't work, I don't need to feel responsible of everything going on with the phone.

Update: I am not trying to be a ****, but there is important data that helps on posts like those, I could have just stayed silent rather than sharing my ideas on how to help.

i tried shaftenbergs apk but it doesnt change anything.

im using the latest build M4.
[RAZR i Android Development] caslubas:
I have the same problem, the voice command worked fine until version M3, M4 already in version does not work, I tried clearing data and not solved.

I must be missing something, worked very well, one reason for me to use this rom.

I'm not receiving any texts whatsoever. I tried creating a new APN for MMS using the settings listed on o2 tech support, but still nothing. Even short ones with less than 10 characters. Is anyone else having this problem?

o2 DE. Clean flash from stock rooted. (Performed full wipe)
[RAZR i Android Development] ladiko:
Same issue here with Vodafone DE, i dont receive SMS, didnt tried MMS.
[RAZR i Android Development] Omar-Avelar:
From the OP list of known bugs:

Please add a MMS entry for your carrier under APNs if you do not have one -- if you don't the CM MMS app will have trouble with long text messages or unicode characters. And if you still have long SMS problems just head over here.

:angel:
[RAZR i Android Development] ladiko:
Android added an MMS entry to the APN list on its own and the settings seem to be correct. It's not very clear if the entry has to be of the type "mms" or has to be named "MMS" or anything else which is necessary for the SMS/MMS app to work properly.

any ideas?
[RAZR i Android Development] ladiko:
I am new to THIS rom, but i read the op and it still doesnt work for me. And like i said, the little note about the mms apn is not clearly defined. Do i have to add an mms apn if there is one created by Android? If i have to, do i have to name it "MMS" or "mms" or it doesnt matter as it has to be of the apn-type "mms"?
[RAZR i Android Development] lebobo:
Same problem here. With M4 version we cannot use any Rebooter. I used this one : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.liveov.rebooter

I tried others but they seem not working! The only working solution is to type 'reboot' in terminal emulator app : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jackpal.androidterm (you have to type 'su' before to get root access of course!)

Omar,

Can you please look into the Bluetooth issue? Or at least tell me what else I might test?

Thanks
[RAZR i Android Development] Omar-Avelar:
Try replacing /bin and /lib completely from the ROM that works just fine, (this would also revert the houdini stuff, hoping it is something missing from here).
[RAZR i Android Development] Loisel:
hey friends,

i fixed my sms problem, i couldnt receive messages with more then 160 characters.

1. use one of these files: xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2212235

i used the 3rd one.

2. delete MMSdependencies.apk

3. o2 germany APN config:

name: o2 mms

apn: internet

MMSC : http://10.81.0.7:8002

MMS proxy: 8080

MCC: 262

MNC: 07

authentification type: CHAP

APN- TYPE: MMS

use this if you have o2 germany as carrier.

4. Reboot

for me it solves the problem, now i can receive every sms.

i don't know wether the MMS are working, i think not.

Just try and backup your MMS.apk and MMSdependencies.apk!
[RAZR i Android Development] PseudoReal:
Hi Omar,

it seems that is has to be something with houdini, but I did not test yet. However, when I compare the two folders, this is the result:

I will test later today and let you know.

Regards,

Edit: I have replaced the houdini file, but nothing changed. Still the same issue!

Thanks for the M% build link :)

I have not even unlocked my Razr i as yet, must be the first Android phone that I haven't bothered to. With the warranty implications etc I thought that I would give it a little time before I did that. I do miss it not being rooted but I'm not sure about a custom ROM...?

Thanks to Omar for all the work in its creation but why was the M5 build pulled from here...? Are there problems and issues which still need to be resolved....?

For those who use this custom ROM would you suggest that it is much better over the JB ROM which Motorola provide with the phone, and if so in what way...?

Thanks for any advise, I'm just a little reluctant to unlock and root etc if when I do there might be little to gain.
[RAZR i Android Development] mick711:
Are you sur ? Because i just try to install and when i make call or received no sound and mic don't work i go back to M4 and all work fine so you make call with your phone or only SMS :confused:
[RAZR i Android Development] paulle:
i installed m5 1 hour ago and can confirm the sound and mic problem. will go back to m4.
[RAZR i Android Development] johnrangoo:
The Rom is as stable as stock, but faster and it has a much better battery life!
[RAZR i Android Development] paulle:
you write about m5 ? and no problems with the mic, when doing or receiving calls ?
[RAZR i Android Development] johnrangoo:
I write about the Rom in general. M5 is not released officially, it even has been pulled. So long I'll stay very happily with M4..
[RAZR i Android Development] vagaba1:
with me, M5 just uses lot less RAM and google now/chrome has became a little laggy when i open it.I had any problems with mic or speaker.
[RAZR i Android Development] ladiko:
After calling in- or outgoing, my headphones only have sound on the left side. Pulling them out and plugging in doesn't help. Reboot without unplugging them always fix the issue. It also happens if I just call somebody and just hang up when I hear it ringing and the called person doesn't receive the call cause I hang up before. The issue is reproduceable.

Tried a little bit more and it only happens on the RAZR I with this ROM and PowerAMP. If I play a song with Google Play Music and switch back to PowerAMP, the issue is gone. So I can't tell if it's device or software related.

I also have the issue with headphone pull one channel. I also have a problem of sometimes with a call not being able to hear me, yet I hear them fine. Hang up and dial again and its fixed, happens every say 8-10 calls. Never an issue with call strength when it occurs.

SMS writing crashes

Hello!

When I try to write an SMS the app crashes. I used Pansi-SMS, then I tried the messages app which came with the rom - same result. APNs are there, when I look in the settings. I searched the forum but did not find a solution. Is there any? I am using the M4 build.

Thanks,

Thanks for the update man.... someone get M5 working well on your devices? any problems found?
[RAZR i Android Development] johnrangoo:
Did a dirty update to M5, everything is sweet.

But remember to delete that 'data/alsa' folder, otherwise you have no sound.

M5 and Greenify, thanks for the hint, and I have massive amounts of free RAM, hopefully that's a good thing.
[RAZR i Android Development] vagaba1:
Jognrangoo, where do i find the folder, and what is Greenify?

Thx!
[RAZR i Android Development] paulle:
greenify is an app (search in play store and see where).

if you don't know there the folder is, search for it with a file manager, a good file manager for free can be found here:

https://f-droid.org/repository/browse/?fdfilter=file&fdid=com.cyanogenmod.filemanager.ics

[RAZR i Android Development] totex71:
You find it under "/data/". remember to turn on root permissions in the file manager,

or else the data folder will just be empty. :p

Could Omar please confirm the status of the M5 build :)

Thanks very much
[RAZR i Android Development] Omar-Avelar:
Oops, that was supposed to be the official M5 without that bug, will let you guys know once the file has it fixed, darn... :angel:
[RAZR i Android Development] FourOne82:
Like every version of this ROM - bootloop.

Even the cleanest try wont work for me, i know there a some others with the same problem. The only solution is to use a "/data" backup, but then some apps stop working. Pls don't post instructions like wipe this or that, i did everything of that...

Is there any way to get a log while booting, because logcat is only working with USB-debug enabled.
[RAZR i Android Development] Omar-Avelar:
Flash with one of the boot.img files from here -- those enable adb forced during boot: http://haxr.org/omar/android/RaZR%20i%20-%20XT890/TESTING/. Don't flash that complete ROM since that is an AOSP build test that doesn't boot -- just extract the boot.img from there!

Did you flash via RSD lite the following file before installing the ROM? (RSD-Lite_Patch_Missing_Files_9.8.2I-50_SMI-26_S7_RTEU.xml.patch.zip)

Or which specific base are you starting from?
[RAZR i Android Development] FourOne82:
Flashed Retail-EU via RSDlite.

Tried to extract your missing-files-patch, but 7zip is going crazy with that file and RSDlite just prompt "Decompress fail."
[RAZR i Android Development] Omar-Avelar:
Also post the exact filename of the Retail-EU version you are using as a base here.

And did you check the MD5Sum of the zip file, did you download something corrupt?? You should be the one figuring out those problems too first.

And you claim there are others with those problems yet I still think it is user error, what other people do you know have that kind of errors that cannot flash the *.zip?
[RAZR i Android Development] FourOne82:
CFC_9.8.2I-50_SMI-26_S7_USASMIJBRTEU.xml

I downloaded the missing-files-patch 3 times, always the same result (MD5Sum is matching).

2 people pm'ed me with the same problem, i opened a tread in the help section a while ago - we tried to manage it by ourselves. There are other users in a German forum too.

Maybe this is a users problem, but i cant figure out what is wrong.

I don't want 2 be rude or something, i just don't get it why some users cant get this ROM working. One time it worked for me, in June - but even that version wont work again...
[RAZR i Android Development] paulle:
same here too. mic not working.
[RAZR i Android Development] mercurio.:
reflashed m4. mic works again. to me m4 seems far more fluid than m5!
[RAZR i Android Development] totex71:
M5 is much more fluid for me and now i have 600mb+ free ram
[RAZR i Android Development] Omar-Avelar:
The file you used is correct, "CFC_9.8.2I-50_SMI-26_S7_USASMIJBRTEU.xml.zip" -- did you change anything in the XML?. You could try "9.8.2I-50_SML-28_Retail_BR_SIGNED_SLATAMUnlk_USASMI01RETBRLA021.0R_S1FF_CFC_fb.xml.zip"?? I remember flashing the zip over BR firmware without problems.
[RAZR i Android Development] Omar-Avelar:
Yes, M5 is more fluid here too with more memory for apps to run. However I did bork the microphone configuration file ... so I cannot make any phone calls at work today -- will fix once I have time and let you guys know. :D
[RAZR i Android Development] FourOne82:
I changed nothing in the xml, its untouched.

You mean "9.8.2I-50_SML-28_Retail_BR_SIGNED_SLATAMUnlk_USASMI01RETBRLA021.0R_S1FF_CFC_fb.xml.zip", this is Retail-Brazil - can this brick my phone? I mean i have a german carrier, will this work? Sry if this question is stupid... ;)

PS: I looked into it, HSD-Pilot wrote on a german forum that we should not flash none-european files - translated quote would be "under no circumstances flash any none-european files".

PSS: I will try to get a bootlog with the "boot.img" from "RazRi_AOSP_A002.zip" tomorrow, maybe this will help.
[RAZR i Android Development] anerik:

[RAZR i Android Development] anerik:
Great
[RAZR i Android Development] vimesUK:
Just noticed this for today's update on this ROM...

Does that apply to the still problematic M5 or the new build of M5.....?

If M5 is still troublesome then M4 is still the latest "good to go" version.
[RAZR i Android Development] vagaba1:
yes it does, but still have mic problems :(
[RAZR i Android Development] dog121:
As far as I can tell by reading the OP the M4 version is the stable safest bet M5 has a little ironing out which I'm sure Omar will keep us updated when ready...
[RAZR i Android Development] vimesUK:
Is there a reason as to why the MD5 is different when checking the M4 build to the one posted....?

Tried downloading a couple of times now but I get....

3a4d9133a909f5a56d5b7256ff045904

and not....

0b55c5edd23710379d8fb416c8863b49

as noted on the first page.
[RAZR i Android Development] dog121:
Don't quote me on this but I think it's because Omar took down M5 and replaced With M4 but didn't change the md5 so the one on first page was the one for the M5zip which will be back..
[RAZR i Android Development] vimesUK:
I was hoping that could be the case.

I don't like flashing a ROM though unless I can verify the MD5 - I'm sure you can understand why.
[RAZR i Android Development] Omar-Avelar:
Yes, that was the case, thanks dog :good:, for reference you guys can check the MD5Sum that the server generates on the right column of here:

haxr.org/omar/android/RaZR i - XT890/

Of course this wouldn't work if I corrupted the file on the server or if it is a bad upload from my part, but since M4 hasn't moved you can be safe that is the checksum to check :D
[RAZR i Android Development] vimesUK:
Thanks for the chance to check the MD5, most appreciated.

If I test out the M4 build will a full wipe be needed for the up and coming M5 or could that be just flashed over?

I am not sure if it is best just waiting for the M5 build our just go with the M4, if the next build is close to being ready?

Thanks
[RAZR i Android Development] Omar-Avelar:
Will be up in 1hr :), done and updated the OP.
[RAZR i Android Development] Omar-Avelar:
Finally, the real M5:
[RAZR i Android Development] ladiko:
nothing to say?
[RAZR i Android Development] adddaamo:
Omar maybe you can also add support for ZCache/Zram/CleanCache in kernel ? It should also improve available memory numbers - and with our fast CPU we shouldn't see any speed degradation.

Also I've read that last fix to 3.8 kernel (zero huge_page support) saves A LOT of memory.

But, unfortunately, there is no way to bring this feature to our kernel :(
