Can you make it available on cm10?

[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] blinqipa:
Did you try replacing camera libs of CM10.1 on CM10? I think it would work as I don't think there may be differencies between two.
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] coolfzk:
I don't think so
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] blinqipa:
Did you try it? I will try to do that

Guyz, do u still have camcorder problem?
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] blinqipa:
Please research a BIT .

Yes we still do have that annoying bug in stock camera app , but in the Camera JB+ recording/playback is fine .
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] bilal_liberty:
I was asking because I thaught I can help to fix the bug, [MENTION=4990063]vickyg.coolest[/MENTION] pmed me to help fixing the torch so I am here investigating about bugs...
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] blinqipa:
Uhm.OK I'm sorry I thought you were using the phone .Do you have any ideas about the Torch /flashlight .?
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] bilal_liberty:
I think its an overlay problem. Try this torch.apk, by replacing either from recovery or manually putting in the zip and flashing, replacing through root browser will not work.
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] bilal_liberty:
Also try to give logcat of that instant ...
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] blinqipa:
I don't really know how to make flashable .zip but will try ;)

---------- Post added at 04:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:05 PM ----------

To tell the reality ,there's no torch.apk on system
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] bilal_liberty:
flash this zip from recovery, then when u will start phone, in menu there will be a app named torch use it and tell whether flash light works or not, btw the flash with camera app is working or its not working at all?

Edit: file attached
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] blinqipa:
there's no flashlight option available in the camera , but TheWhisp (cm10.1 dev) gave us a .lib of that would add an option to enable/disable flashlight through camera

If we need , I will find that .lib ? Do we need that enable/disable feature on camera?

Edit' [MENTION=4817003]dominos_liberty[/MENTION] I flashed that .zip through the TWRP recovery , but Torch application is not available on the drawer ? otherwise it is already on system/app , but not visible on the app drawer , now?

---------- Post added at 05:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:39 PM ----------

the flash is not working
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] TheWhisp:
You're using Mini 2 libcamera.so which doesn't have support for flash so the flash parameter is not added. I sent you camera HAL that forces the parameter to be enabled, so flash option would show up in Camera app. Did you even try that lib? Because I haven't received any log with it. So when you have flash enabled in the camera app, force it on (so every picture is taken with flash on), take a picture. Meanwhile take logcat and kmsg.

edit: is AF working in the latest build I uploaded?
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] blinqipa:
I don't really know how to take kmsg because I don't know how to set the Sdk-android .I will get the logcat now ,autofocus is working

Hello guys.. So I see that you guys are trying to fix the flashlight.. Excellent..

I have something else to report.. There's a lock screen bug on this build.. When screen lock is set to pin, the buttons are only half visible.. Please refer to the screenshot below..
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] blinqipa:
That bug is already reported on GitHub issues of thewhisp/android/msm7x27a-common

If you have any bugs related to CM10~ CM10.1 report here : https://github.com/TheWhisp/android_device_samsung_msm7x27a-common/issues?state=open

Guys I saw that there is a an improvement on flashlight issue on GitHub , look at the android_device_samsung_s7500/ and read the latest commits :silly: .
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] vickyg.coolest:
why you get so excited he just added torch app only nothing has improved to fix flashlight

please stop this discussion on this thread

Flashlight

CLUE FOR FLASHLIGHT

After Comparing the Kernel of CM 10.1 with Stock GB Kernel I found one clue.

There are some lines missing in CM 10.1 Kernel in init.rc

It is present in Stock GB Kernel. As far as I know this line controls flashlight.

Add this line to init.rc in CM 10.1 Kernel

[COLOR="Red"]# create lash torch file for torch mode[/COLOR]
[COLOR="DeepSkyBlue"]chmod 0660 /sys/class/camera/rear/rear_flash
chown system system /sys/class/camera/rear/rear_flash[/COLOR]
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] mohdradzi84:
Have u try?

[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] kk9999gada:
No. Maybe this may provide some help.
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] blinqipa:
I will try as soon as I open my Laptop , can this brick the device :silly: ?sorry for the noob question!? [MENTION=4148720]TheWhisp[/MENTION] could this be the reason behind the flashlight issue?
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] kk9999gada:
You may try at your own risk. But it will be good if you wait for confirmation from thewhisp.
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] GTM_rhinox:
Nope for now I guess USB-OTG not supported... I guess we'll have to wait for 3.0 kernel...
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] daniel98:
here you have the modified kernel with the flashlight thingy. i didn't flash this kernel yet, so i have no results to talk about
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] vickyg.coolest:
making flashable zip right now

hope it boots and doesn't t brick my phone :p

tried it

failed to boot

stuck at gt s7500 logo
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] blinqipa:
I Don't think that it will brick , but why don't you copy paste into CM10.1.2 .zip and make a dirty flash .Also remember there's no torch app in the ROM so I don't think it would work . :/
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] daniel98:
yea...about that. i tried it and it doesnt boot

i think my compiling tools are broken
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] vickyg.coolest:
i tried to boot with older kernel from older build but it also didn't booted

why that happened ?

and this boot img also didn't booted :crying:
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] daniel98:
it just doesnt make sense. when i compile the kernel, it gets stripped down to a size of 3.5MB. it was 12MB before editing!!!

edit : i got another tool. it works this time. uploading file...
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] vickyg.coolest:
so i guess we have to wait for [MENTION=4148720]TheWhisp[/MENTION] to solve this issue
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] daniel98:
kernel flashable .zip . it works this time, but can't see any flash option in stock camera app

[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] :

So does it mean that when i shutdown my phone and plugged in the charger and there will be a battery charging icon there?
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] hellogunj:
Nopes. If you switch off ur phone & connect a charger, it simply restarts.....
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] :
Battery

So there is no way to get that battery charging icon when shutdown?
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] Depau:
Lol the flash works with thewhisp's original kernel :)

But not with camera app, torchlight or something like this!

Open the terminal and run

su -c "echo 1 > /sys/class/camera/rear/rear_flash"

to turn it on, and

su -c "echo 0 > /sys/class/camera/rear/rear_flash"

to turn it off afterwards :)

This just tells the kernel to turn the flash led on and off, simply.

You can make some SL4A scripts to turn it on and off:

turn_light_on.sh

#!/system/bin/sh
su -c "echo 1 > /sys/class/camera/rear/rear_flash"

turn_light_off.sh

#!/system/bin/sh
su -c "echo 0 > /sys/class/camera/rear/rear_flash"

Actually I didn't try these scripts (I managed to turn on the flash through adb), but they should work.

[MENTION=4148720]TheWhisp[/MENTION] kernel log is attached, but there isn't any info about the light...
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] kk9999gada:
So, you mean that flashlight is working after adding those lines in kernel but not with stock camera app.
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] vickyg.coolest:
what the hell dude !!!!

from where you get all this

yes the flash works after those commands

edit - one more thing did you added those lines in the kernel through terminal emulator ???
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] blinqipa:
Oh GOSH David YOU'RE NOT NORMAL .GOSH FLASH IS WORKING WITH YOUR SIMPLE COMMAND
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] Depau:
From my brain: I've read some post about that lines, I know that chmod and chown change only the permissions, so the file should already exist.

I checked for its presence and, knowing that to turn on a led that has only two states (on and off, it doesn't support changing the brightness) usually you have to write a number > 1 in its file and < 1 to turn it off, I tried that.

And no, I didn't add those lines. They might be useful to turn it on and off without being root, but they aren't needed to turn it on like I did.

You might try to combine these lines with TheWhisp's modified camera HAL; if it is a permission problem, it should now be fixed.

Try it ;)

EDIT: for those who already have patched camera hal but don't have the fixed kernel, you can also run the commands in the terminal to fix temporarily the permissions and try if it works with the camera.

su
chmod 0660 /sys/class/camera/rear/rear_flash
chown system system /sys/class/camera/rear/rear_flash
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] blinqipa:
[MENTION=5175709]davideddu96[/MENTION] tried but it says unable to chown ....read only file system .so how to make it rewritable?

Edit'okay got it rw but it is not working .Even if I set it to auto even if I force it ,it isn't turning on.

[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] blinqipa:
Yes it is working now ,thanks for the info vickyg.coolest
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] Depau:
You should have remounted system read-write; but don't do it. I tried it and it doesn't work (I mean the stock camera app doesn't turn on the flash)
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] blinqipa:
[MENTION=5175709]davideddu96[/MENTION] is there any other way? Turning the torch through Stock CAM app
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] Depau:
It does exactly what I do with

echo 1 > /path/to/rear_flash

It should also have worked before as it requires root permission.

[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] vickyg.coolest:
thats what i was saying

it was not working before

it gived error like ''sysfs not found this app will never run on your device'' after giving root privileges

edit -

sorry i used ****ing older version

newer version works normally without any command (just root only)

i used that app 7-8 days ago but it was older version thats why it gave that ****ing error:mad:
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] blinqipa:
Guys now I'm going to try other apps
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] Depau:
You don't have to waste time ;)

There are two ways to turn the flash on: using the library and doing it manually. If using the library doesn't work, apps that don't do it manually gaining root access won't work. Use the AdjustableCamera or my sl4a scripts, there aren't many torch apps that don't use the hal...
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] blinqipa:
Where is that adjustableCamera (IDK) or how can I activate those sl4a ,I'll try to create that on/off.sh files but how to activate them?
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] vickyg.coolest:
he meant adjustable torch

which i posted !!

other apps wont work because they all use cameraHAL

adjustable torch directly use flash by kernel

there are 2 ways. flashlight via camera hal or via sysfs node.

as said by [MENTION=3208754]codeworkx[/MENTION]
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] blinqipa:
Thanks .Great ! At least better than nothing .Who contacted with codeworkx /what did he say?

[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] vickyg.coolest:
buddy home button only wakes device when not in deep sleep

install cpu spy and check that your device is going in deep sleep or not

or just restart your device home button wake is a bug which is still not solved :(
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] Depau:
It means that some app is preventing the phone to go into sleep mode. In fact the home button works only if some app is still running, like the media player. If you stop the media player, wait a few minutes and press any key (including the earphone's button) it won't work.

It doesn't matter if Samsung releases only for GT-S7500, with the source available it can be made compatible also with L, T etc. (the only difference is in the kernel, nothing big) I haven't looked into stock Ace Plus kernel, so I don't know why the ROM is not working on other Ace Plus variants. Will look into it later. Samsung has slow servers, it takes ages to download their opensource packages.

would the devs please add arabic support? (middle east version)

i'm also getting a

black-screen

when i try in flash.zip file
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] Shuvodip:
I would try to help you out. :D

1. Opera Mini : Well, with my version of Opera Mini [i.e. 7.5.1], I didn't experience any black screen problem.

Keeping in mind your problem, I opened up Mini, and then from there, went on to Walkman [installed using Rizal's mod],

then Gallery, then the native Browser too, and when I switched to Mini, it jumped up,

ready to be scavenge through any search page I wanted to throw at it!

So, from my side, NO, its not a bug. :laugh:

2. The keyboard problem is a bit lengthy. Still, I would go step-by-step. :p

Requirements : Keyboard app of your choice, Titanium Backup.

DON'T BLAME ME FOR ANYTHING NOT WORKING. TAKE A BACKUP OF YOUR SYSTEM USING CWM FIRST. :cool:

a] Install Root Explorer.

b] When it asks for root privileges, press 'allow'.

c] Go to \system\app and then, search for LatinIME.apk.

d] If you decide to NOT use the keyboard, you have two options : to move this apk out of that system folder or else,

to FREEZE it using Titanium Backup. I went ahead with the first option.

e] So, move that apk to your SD card [in case your other keyboard doesn't show up properly].

f] Now, install the keyboard app of your choice.

g] Open up Titanium Backup and find your keyboard app.

h] There's an option : Convert to system app. Click on it, and you'll see the app change to 'red' colour,

indicating it has become a system app.

i] Reboot.

j] Go to Settings->Language & input and there, you can see your keyboard. Also, it might be the

only keyboard visible. So you won't be able to tick it, as its being used by default.

But in anyway, I didn't see any difference in RAM consumption. The native one used to take up around 10MB,

whereas the one I used for this demonstration, Smart Keyboard took up around 8MB. Not MUCH of a difference. :D

However, that's the way to go about it.

Sure though, that the experts out here have better ways to do it :silly:
