Yea, I need to catchup to the kernel patches. Working on getting Carbon up to snuff first.

But great work to all the razrqcom team! dhacker for the kernel patches which get camera working, and nadlabak/kabaldan for finding that fix for playback!
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Armadill0:
Really great work of all of you guys! Thank you very much!:good::highfive:
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] huatz84:
I'm even using build 20130612 and be able to record videos and play 'em without problems.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] palmwangja:
would you guys kindly test the vertically recorded clip for once?

I also didn't have a problem in a landscape mode video, but got rebooted almost 100% in playing a portrait orientation video.

---------- Post added at 09:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:10 PM ----------

I tested again, it wasn't for the recording, but for playing.

No problem in playing in landscape mode, but dead in portrait mode...
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] wolficus:
fixed it. took a bit of work but the data is being tracked properly now.

i ended up having to rsd the jb stock rom onto the phone to fix other issues. then rebuild a fresh install of cm10. after that it tracked data just fine. will warn the rsd process takes 30ish mins. easy as heck though.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] kecksk0enig:
I can confirm recording and playback is well in landscape mode.

In portraite mode recording is fine also, playback results in freez/deadphone, only power+volum down revived it.

Till now i did not try to playback the portraid video on pc.

Also I have discovered if u choose to store pictures/videos on SD the created folder is named "Camera" if saved to internal memory it is named "Kamera" which is the right german word for "Camera".

Just a little issue :)
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] palmwangja:
Unknown phone number

sorry to bring up an issue again.

http://www.modaco.com/topic/360645-phone-number-in-about-phone/

Unknown phone number in settings was a known problem in lots of CM build, but in CM10 on photon you can save manually the number from the phone app and that was sustainable after reboot.

Howerver, in CM10.1 that menu just went away, and I found the app to set up the number in the above link was successful, but it didn't survive the reboot...

Certain apps are demanding 'my phone number', and I'd like to find a way to solve this problem...
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] kabaldan:
Until the iccio is fixed, you can set these persistent properties in shell as a workaround:

su
setprop persist.radio.msisdn YOUR_PHONE_NUMBER
setprop persist.radio.iccid YOUR_ICC_ID
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] palmwangja:
Works like a charm!! thanks :D
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Comet1966:
Facebook video playback did not work for me, the audio worked, but it was just a black screen.

Edit: YouTube doesn't work either. But when your in the transition from portrait to landscape, or vise versa the video shows but then blanks out when it reaches one of them.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] dpwhitty11:
Hooray for working video recording! :D

Now, what are the odds we get Halo slapped onto this too?
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] kabaldan:
Either you are running an old build which doesn't include this: https://github.com/razrqcom-dev-tea...mmit/930db303a9780e02a2ccf144d6f7dda7740b744b

Or you've replaced the build.prop file with some old version or erased this property from there.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Comet1966:
I was running the 6-12 build with no mods.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] SimranSingh:
When I try to play a video using Facebook or YouTube I only see a black screen. Is there a fix for this issue or is this an ongoing issue within the ROM that must be fixed in the source?
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Did you uh... read this post?
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] palmwangja:
Low volume

I noticed that the recorded volume of camcoder is too low especially compared to the stock.

I tried the stock camera but not that different : http://www.cultofandroid.com/24752/...ur-android-device-how-to/#UsKJUDRZSY68W3LX.99

Is this kernel related idiosyncracy ? I heard lots of CM are somewhat like this... :crying:
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] kabaldan:
This issue should be fixed in the kernel source now.

Btw., do you really record videos in portrait mode? Really? It took me a while to convince my wife it's a bad idea, but I succeeded in the end ;) .
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] palmwangja:
Thanks! come to think of it, it sounds like a bad idea considering a chance to play them back in TV, haha..

BTW, any way to increase the recorded volume??
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] wintrxtrem:
The last nightly I was running had overclocking up to about 2000 MHz, but the most recent nightly only goes to 1512 Mhz. Whycome?
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] gtownswagga:
Because the kernel is the thing they have been working hard on to get the camcorder working. They haven't changed the overclocking in the new kernel yet.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] kecksk0enig:
Hi!

I am experiencing random full system freezes on 16.06 build, after a short period of time (approx. 2- 3 minutes after boot).

Only solution is power+volume down to reboot.

I reinstalled 15.06 version and everything is working again.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Skrilax_CZ:
Overclocking has been disabled (incomplete and most of the team (including myself) is against it).
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] palmwangja:
Understandable...

What about merging underclocking/undervoltage efforts that arrrghhh has been doing? I believe saving the juice is really effective with that approach.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Loader009:
Agree, underclocking/undervolding would be fine.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] kecksk0enig:
No one else experiences systemfreezes with 16.06 nightly?
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Not sure my hack of a kernel would even be accepted mainline :p.

Seriously tho, I will do my best to keep providing the option. Just not sure if it's a good idea to force any changes in clocking ability out-of-box. Granted, having the ability to change clock/voltages would be nice, but they shouldn't be forced upon users.

Thanks!
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Skrilax_CZ:
There is a common myth that underclocking below lower frequencly will be helpful for something. It won't - on user non-interactive tasks it always pays off to run the CPU on higher frequency but for a shorter amount of time. You will even cosume more power when underclocked, because there are more things that are on the phone other than application processor (AP) that will have to run longer as well ;)

So we probably stay on undervolting via sysfs (for SetCPU and such).
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Interesting. Even when the phone is idling? It's not better for the device to idle at a lower CPU freq?
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] mrvek:
When device is put in its ideal mode, deep sleep, frequency should not matter. when some non-interactive takes wakes the device (check mail in background, etc.) higher freq. allows it to finish faster than on lower frequency (usually, more power is needed but for shorter amount of time)
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] wintrxtrem:
Is PerformanceSettingsHelper something new recently to CM? I never noticed it before and saw that it was auto-granted root access when I booted the 6/17 nightly this morning.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
I guess I would actually have to do a heads up test to see what you guys are saying is correct...

And since I don't have a good way to measure (accurately) mV drain, I guess I'll just take your word for it?

I understand what you're saying, I just don't see how you can say that applies to every single case. Since I haven't done any real comparisons, I don't really know. Just speculating...

I'm assuming you guys have tested this?
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Skrilax_CZ:
When the application processor (AP CPU) is in deep sleep mode, it's not clocked at all. That's why the frequency doesn't matter for it. In this stage the system instead runs on a companion core (translation: the smartass governor = pure bs) which purpose is only to wake the AP CPU if necessary.

The power consmuption depends quadraticly on voltage and linearly on frequency, both have some offsets. This offset will be high enough on low frequencies to make it eat more power if you underclock it and have it run for longer time.

You can actually observe the sleep "clock-off" easily: prevent your system from sleeping and force clocking on the lowest frequency (powersave governor). The power drain will be much higher.

Yes. It's for Performance Settings to correctly apply for CPU1 as well.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Mordannon:
Dock audio

Just curious if anyone was looking at the Dock audio output. Saw a question about it a while back in the thread but nothing recent. Not a big thing but i have a car dock and do use that feature occasionally. I would be happy to help with testing if it is needed.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] dpwhitty11:
+1, would be great to get this working again.

I can test it as well.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] iamchocho:
What dock do you have? The one I have that I got with the phone free from Costco does not have an audio connector, I have to plug my headphone directly into the phone which is incredibly annoying.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] dpwhitty11:
Idk about the guy above me, but I'm using the official car dock you used to be able to get off Moto's site. I also have a Droid 3 desk dock, and the usb audio rerouting doesn't work with that either.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] kabaldan:
Yes, I've been looking into it a bit (I have the original car dock for Q by Moto).

So far I've made only a simple workaround in framework to the hacky code added in CM to support Samsung audio docks.

Before that, the phone was completely mute when seated in the car dock. Now the sound is at least routed to the phone speaker (or the headphone output if connected) when in car dock.

The goal is to provide an option in Advanced settings, so the user can choose whether the audio should be routed to speaker/headphones or to usb analog audio output when in dock.

I won't be able to enable the analog audio out via usb, until I gain more insight into both user space and kernel space alsa qcom code and the motorola's emu kernel driver.

Unfortunately, I constantly struggle with finding free time (and our second baby is on the way to be born, so it will hardly get any better any time soon :) ).

Another drawback is that routing to speaker is what suits my needs while in car, so I'm not pressed to find the solution asap by my own needs ;) .
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] palmwangja:
hiding navigation bar bug?

I haven't seen this symptom until 6/15 nightly, but the full screen doesn't hide navigation bar ever since I installed 6/17 nightly...

Stock apps seem somewhat okay, but I tried with MX Player which doesn't have any problem yet leaves ' . . . ' even after it switched to full screen mode. :confused:
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] ujoty:
HI,

Does anyone use AutoGuard? During background recording phone becomes very laggy and unresponsive. I was wondering if it's only my issue.

Also, would it be AG issue or CM?
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] palmwangja:
Oh, I see. How can I set the voltage with SetCPU (via sysfs?) on the current CM build? SetCPU doesn't reveal voltage menu on the current CM...
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] mrvek:
It is currently not implemented. So you can't get voltage menu on supporting apps.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Armadill0:
No nightly today?:(
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] kabaldan:
Changes in preparation for merge to official CyanogenMod repo temporarily broke buildbot builds.

EDIT: today's nightly is up
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Armadill0:
Great, thanks! :)

So the Photon Q will officially go to CM?
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Skrilax_CZ:
It's submitted ;)

But I will keep my builds as a few patches are not yet merged (multipress etc.).
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] iamchocho:
Does the last few posts mean we are going to eventually be officially cm supported? :)
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Indeed it does!!

Great work guys.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] wintrxtrem:
Are we any closer to seeing one build for both CDMA/GSM, and ability to switch between the radios?
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] brandontowey:
Didn't see this posted cause I researched but I was having a problem with an Audio Out_2 wakelock on a previous nightly (5/27?). Reset, reinstalled, etc, no dice but it's been fixed in the newest one and I'm getting great battery life so far. 12hrs of moderate use and only down to 60% where before it was 10hrs and dead. Sweet.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Skrilax_CZ:
No. It won't be that way and radio is the same. The difference is in the build.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] kecksk0enig:
hi!

Any news on circumnavigate internal memory space filling up?

I have a 32GB microsd in my Q but because of (stupid) internal memory mapped as sdcard0 nearly no apps put their data on my external micro sd.

I already have set camera/camcorder app to save files to real sdcard instead of saving to fake sdcard0.

I also tried some folder/file link aps like FolderLink and idk the other ones.

Those LinkerApps did not work as well as I thougt, I had the fealing they break some apps (not responding or forceclosed)

Has someone a viable way to move/store files to sdcard1?
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] wintrxtrem:
Will GSM work on the CDMA build, like for international roaming?
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Loader009:
Since today I'm using CM10.1. I dirty flashed from CM10.

I can see tearing in Whatsapp. Is Vsync deactivated or should I do a clean flash?
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Wait, you were on CM10 previously?

Please don't dirty flash from different ROM's. You can dirty flash nightly --> nightly (sometimes, NOT always)...

Do a factory reset and see if that fixes it. Rule #1 with dirty flashing!
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Loader009:
Yes, I wanted to do a reset, but I didn't want to spend the whole day to configure anything :D

I'll reset the other day, I just noticed it and thought it could be a known bug.

(I searched in this thread for "tearing" and "vsync".)
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Skrilax_CZ:
Tearing and vsync is something that will vary between nightlies while there are experiments with the kernel.

I suppose that. GSM build is for those who are SIM card modded (i.e not affilated with Sprint).
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] FinntheViking:
It should, yeah. Though why you would want to roam internationally with an embedded SIM is beyond me.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] wintrxtrem:
I'm interested in doing the SIM mod and still using Sprint, smartasses:) At a minimum this would break LTE, but now that some newer Sprint Androids have removable SIMs maybe I could use one of those. Then I could pop in a foreign SIM when traveling abroad.

It would also be nice to use the phone on a domestic GSM carrier if I ever decide to jump ship or go prepaid. I would not want to have to switch ROMs, though, which is why I asked the question. I was hoping we were working towards one ROM to rule them all.. I don't see where I could edit APNs in the CDMA build, either.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] xLoveHateLegend:
Anyone know how to disable Apollo as the main music app? I have my phone setup to open the default music player when headphones are plugged in (which is the way I like it). When I go to apps and select apollo, 'clear defaults' is greyed... I've tried everything, but I just can't figure it out.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] robbi24r:
Uninstall it is the best I got. Maybe freeze it if you use titanium.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Armadill0:
Any information when the nightlies on get.cm will start and what the codename of the device will be? :)
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] huatz84:
Should be Asanti..:)
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Skrilax_CZ:
Codenames will be xt897 (GSM) & xt897c (CDMA).
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Loader009:
Using nightly from 19/06/2013 I get "hickups" in the game "Hexagon" -> https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fmcstudio.hexagon

But only if I play it a while, about 15 minutes or longer.

I didn't had that problem in CM10.

The game looks to be frozen (time freezed) and no input is possible.

It takes a while to react on my input/touches.

I disabled Wifi, BT, GPS, GSM. Nothing helped.

Could it be that there is a protection against high temperatures?

The phone gets really hot with this game.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] cmattern:
I'm a car dock user and would happily be a tester for USB audio on dock functionality.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Armadill0:
Any information when the official CM builds will start?

Will you completely switch to CM to directly merge changes to their repo or will there be a parallel development branch?
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
First rule of CM - never ask for ETA's. Have some patience.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Skrilax_CZ:
Is that somehow important, lol?
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Armadill0:
The information that there is no ETA ist better than no information...
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] kecksk0enig:
Todays build freezes sometimes, also I have the feeling it consumes more battery than before. (1.5 hours on and only 68% battery left..)
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] xLoveHateLegend:
This is my typical battery life.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] palmwangja:
With today's build, this bug(?) persists... I tried other major video playing apps,

When the movie starts in full screen....

MX Player : change to ". . ." navigation bar

MoboPlayer : Tried to get into full screen, but sprang back with the navigation bar.

VPlayer : successfully hide navigation bar.

I don't know why but this starts from around 6/16 or 17 :D
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Loader009:
It has probably to do something with tearing/vsync.

(I've made a factory reset, the tearing persists.)
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] sk8rguy05:
Anybody else having charging issues on the 6-21 build? I didn't have any problems charging on the 6-19 build but this new build I had to keep unplugging and plugging back in and also restarted 3x before it finally started charging again.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Charging via USB or AC?

You also skipped a day there... hmmm. There were quite a few kernel commits on the 20th.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] sk8rguy05:
On the rom download page it went from 6-19 straight to 6-21. There is no 6-20 on there. And it does it on both USB and ac charging.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Bummer, I see what you mean.

I'll see if I can confirm, in the meantime roll back to the 6/19 nightly.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] sk8rguy05:
Do I have to do fresh install to go backwards? Or can I just flash back to 6/19 without having to wipe everything? Also is there anyway to add all the customization options that carbon has to this rom? I like carbon but I had to switch because it would randomly restart my phone twice a day. Ever since the first initial build of carbon. But I love all the customization of carbon. So if u could add that or know of some addons to add those customization please let me know. Keep up all the hard work u do for this phone we greatly appreciate ur amazing work.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Uhm, Carbon is a separate ROM. That's the whole point.

It works great for me, *shrug*.

You can try dirty flashing going backwards, but again... dirty flashing causes issues. If you do it, you will probably run into issues. Clean wipes are always best.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] palmwangja:
I also experienced some "random reboots" with freshly flashed carbon, and had to get back to CM... wanted to know what caused that to us.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Please, if you have issues with Carbon post in that thread. Thanks.

Back to the topic, I am on the 6/21 nightly for CM10.1, and there's no issues with charging via AC. I wasn't able to charge via USB, and a reboot didn't seem to resolve that... so I tried enabling ADB, and for some reason that kicked it over and started charging.

Not sure if that step was necessary before, perhaps it is. I usually enable ADB anyways, so that's something that is always on for me.

Looks like there is a 6/22 nightly now as well, I'll give that a shot in a minute.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] sk8rguy05:
I think I'll just stick with the one I got until the next update. It hasn't done the charging problem in bout 4hrs so I think I'm good. Not sure why it stopped or even started all of a sudden. Using same charger and cable as before so jot really sure.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
I responded, 6/21 worked fine. I also tested 6/22, charges fine as well.

I found I had to enable ADB in order to charge from USB - this seems to be a normal thing, as it happened on 6/22 as well. I always enable ADB, and I hardly ever charge off USB... so I never really noticed if this was a requirement before or not. It might be.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] sk8rguy05:
6/22 is up? Didn't even notice lol. I gotta keep up with that lol. Do I'll download and flash that one now and see if it fixes it. Is the USB storage working in the new build? Cus it sucks having to reboot into recovery to transfer stuff from PC to my phone every time. And also do you know how to add more power options for when holding power button? Cus now under reboot it just restarts phone doesn't ask if u wanna reboot into recovery. I have to use goo manager to reboot to recovery from rom.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] palmwangja:
It's in the developer option where you can switch on.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
USB storage has always worked for me... You mean mass storage? I don't think that has 'truly' worked since 4.2. You'll have to use MTP mode to transfer files, or adb.

As for power options, you have to enable developer options, and then there's a checkbox for "Advanced Reboot" - which will enable the reboot recovery/bootloader options.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Skrilax_CZ:
I will be looking on mass storage, it seems to be supported by CM10.1 afterall (seeing it on other devices) We still have some minor USB issues (i.e plug to AC and then have to reboot to get USB working).

As for the "charging issue" it looks like MTP without ADB is not working (PTP mode works fine), seems like bad descriptor. Newest nightlies have video camera broken (since 21/06, it's why 20/06 didn't build).

So USB buglist:

- Mass Storage mode / Charge Only mode absent

- MTP w/o ADB not working

- if phone is plugged to charger, then you will have to reboot or it will not plug to USB
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] xLoveHateLegend:
I guess I'm kind of glad I stayed on 6/19. 6/22 has the video camera fixed now, correct? Not sure if I should flash it yet or not.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Video camera was fixed prior to the 6/19 build.. I want to say 6/17?

Thanks for the response Skrilax, a true USB Mass Storage would be great!
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] xLoveHateLegend:
arrrghhh, this is what I was referring to, unless I'm completely taking this sentence the wrong way
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Oh, I somehow glazed over that part of the post... whoops. Well it was working, haha. Sorry!
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] kabaldan:
Just to clarify:

Audio recording was broken by upstream update of qcom alsa code around the 20/06 nightly.

It has been fixed in 22/06 with the exception of camcorder still recording mute videos.

By now, the camcorder should be fully fixed again. So look forward to 23/06 nightly.

Btw., MTP/USB charging without ADB enabled will work as well...
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] xLoveHateLegend:
It happens haha. I guess I'll just stay at 6/19 until tonight :p
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] sk8rguy05:
just updated to the new 6/23/13 and happy to report charging works excellent no issues by both usb and ac. also mass storage is working excellent. and video recording is working great and records audio.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] huatz84:
Great! Glad to see rapid progress recently. With the addition of storage swapping will make it perfect. :)
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] dpwhitty11:
All we need now is USB audio!
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] xLoveHateLegend:
I didn't even know USB audio was possible
