I'm on the last build of Validus, has anyone gotten google wallet to work by any chance?
[HTC Droid DNA] orangechoochoo:
I did a dirty flash and got a few play store fc. I did notice some new settings just below The Void which has a wakelock blocker which is pretty nice. I didn't get a chance to see if the dial pad is aligned correctly yet.

When I'm not lazy I'll do a clean flash.
[HTC Droid DNA] d08speed3:
Try to make a call. It fails for me.

[HTC Droid DNA] orangechoochoo:
I didn't try, hence my question about the dial pad. I haven't tried LS in a month but I remember the dial pad alignment was off too.

Did you dirty flash? I'm guessing with 15 days between updates there were some underhood changes so a clean flash is probably required but right now I'm not in the mood.

I'll probably try it in a few days or when Pio releases a version that has init.d enabled so we don't need an app to get it working.
[HTC Droid DNA] pio_masaki:
Init.d is already enabled in Validus, it struck me as odd when you mentioned it wasn't, I just checked and it does include init.d during init, and has sysinit enabled, so I'm not sure whats going on there but it should be working.

in init.rc we have at the end:

# sysinit (/system/etc/init.d)

service sysinit /system/bin/sysinit

user root

oneshot

disabled

and in sysinit we have:

export PATH=/sbin:/system/sbin:/system/bin:/system/xbin

/system/bin/logwrapper /system/xbin/run-parts /system/etc/init.d

Which means init.d support should have already been going, and since I haven't synced since the last build, it should already be going, if only in this build as a recent addition. If its been tested and still not working then maybe logs will be needed to get it figured out, I was thinking permissions but I think that's set when flashed, at least on the directory, so maybe a permissions issue with the script itself? It should be 777 iirc, if crpalmer happens to see this he would know for sure what it needs since it's for his kernel if it's not mentioned in his OP.

It does need clean flashed, btw. To many changes with the framework and the optimizations, I wouldn't dirty flash this over anything, even the previous Validus build.
[HTC Droid DNA] orangechoochoo:
With the latest version you posted I noticed the scripts ran fine. I'm not sure if it was because of the dirty flash wherein the init.d mods carried over or because init.d was enabled by default.

Yes, I was lazy about clean flashing. I wouldve been surprised if everything worked on a dirty flash.
[HTC Droid DNA] d08speed3:
Clean flashed Validus 6.1 and allllll works great! ??

[HTC Droid DNA] venkatp:
Validus is just great :) but I'm unable to get into ART runtime. After selecting ART, it's still showing Dalvik after reboot
[HTC Droid DNA] pio_masaki:
Only time I've had that happen is with xposed installed, otherwise art works fine on it for me, so an app or mod is probably stopping it.
[HTC Droid DNA] crpalmer:
Is there something calling start sysinit? Maybe that is just latent config that isn't being used yet?
[HTC Droid DNA] pio_masaki:
Turns out it is active now, no idea why it wasn't before.
[HTC Droid DNA] d08speed3:
I must of had super bad reception or my phone just likes to act up. So when I dirty flashed Validus 6.1 I couldn't call out. Big "x" was on the status bar the second I called out. So I cleaned flashed and all went well. Two days later....my radio was doing the same thing I went back to my Validus 6.0 and then dirty flashed 6.1 today and it all works lol. Silly phone. What baseband radio do you guys use these days? I know location is a factor. I'm on 1.01.01.0110. Its the radio that gives the overall decent reception on my weekly area travels. Maybe I'll fash the newest radio and see how that goes.

HTC DNA

LG Optimus G
[HTC Droid DNA] venkatp:
Yeah, that's the reason but can't stay without xposed :(
[HTC Droid DNA] pio_masaki:
No ROM runs art with xposed installed, he made sure of that. What do you need xposed for? I know there's tons of fun stuff, just curious.
[HTC Droid DNA] venkatp:
Hehe. I use the xposed gel module to customize the Google now launcher, especially reducing the size of icons and changing the grid size. Somehow I don't like the big size icons on our DNA AOSP Roms.

The YouTube adaway module is the best part. Saves a lot of time. And few other modules like greenify and crappalinks.

Slightly OT:

I'm moving to US next week. I got the DNA from my friend who visited India an year ago. Now I'll be doing my masters in VIRGINIA, close to Washington DC.

Can you suggest if it's better to use the DNA or better take a new one(m8) under contract? Which would be economical?
[HTC Droid DNA] pio_masaki:
Economical would be just use the DNA with either Verizon (expensive), AT&T (also can be pretty pricey) or T-Mobile (usually cheapest) as the DNA is GSM unlocked, there's 2 major GSM carriers available in the US, and various other offshoots that may be better priced for you, such as Straight Talk which uses AT&T or T-Mobile networks/SIM cards, research each carrier's coverage, cell, and data, and determine which would cover you best and work from there. You can also use Verizon's network on other "carriers" like TMO and ATT, but they only allow 4G/LTE devices on their own network within their own plans, so that takes out Verizon for anything other then Verizon itself with the DNA. Older devices, such as the iPhone 4 and Galaxy Nexus should work, though.

You probably won't get LTE on T-Mobile, you might get it on AT&T, different bands in use. T-Mobile will still get that H+ icon in your status bar, though, and didn't really bother me in my usage.

In terms of more fun, I'd get the M8 on a contract, but it will cost you far more in the end, entirely up to you, though, if you're happy with the DNA and can hold off or would rather save the money, I'd keep it and look at GSM carriers before you come over.

Just my opinion of it, I'm sure other's can chime in on with what they think.

BTW, there is really no OT in this thread lol
[HTC Droid DNA] necosino:
I use StraightTalk (AT&T) or PagePlus (Verizon). PP is like $40/month for unlimited talk/text and 1gb data. StraightTalk is $5 more for unlimited data throttled after 3GB, so that's generally what I use lately.
[HTC Droid DNA] pio_masaki:
Does your DNA work on PP? I was told any 4G/LTE device won't work, only 3G or lower would. Supposedly there were ways around it device side but I dunno what that would entail. Does AT&T LTE work on the DNA or is it a band not covered like TMOs around here?

Tapatalked from my DNA - Broken OS
[HTC Droid DNA] venkatp:
Lol.. "Nothing is OT here" part makes sense, makes me remind that I'm in pio's thread :D

Thanks for the detailed reply. Has everything I wanted. I'll wait for next big launch and till then use my wonderful DNA.

But is there any way I could overcome issues with Skype. I would be using Skype a lot from next week. If required I could change Rom but I'm loving this Rom a lot, so not an option.
[HTC Droid DNA] pio_masaki:
What's up with Skype? And which ROM, this one kind of holds for Validus testing too.
[HTC Droid DNA] venkatp:
I'm on latest Validus. Unable to make a call or even receive it. When someone's calling me, it's shown ringing but my Skype just doesn't notify. After a while I get a missed call. And when I'm trying to call, it gets dropped even before ring with a weird sound for a fraction of second. (like the speaker is blown)

I think these are known issues but just want to know if there's any workaround.

Are these GSM plans that you're using?
[HTC Droid DNA] pio_masaki:
First I've heard of it, is it known as in source built Roms in general have this, or like carbon had it and now validus does?

I need to setup like a tester thread someplace that just covers all my little projects, aside from Validus I'm helping start up a new one so I'll need testing on that one too lmao

[HTC Droid DNA] pio_masaki:
Is that what those are for?!

OK, but no D pics, please.
[HTC Droid DNA] necosino:
Yup! I've used PP with my old Thunderbolt and DNA. Takes a little bit of patience and know-how with QPST, but it's easy once you do it a couple times. You get 3G, no LTE, but for the price I'm okay with that, especially since most of the places I go to have wifi anyway.

AT&T and Tmobile work perfect, you just pop in their SIM, change your APN, and you're good to go.
[HTC Droid DNA] pio_masaki:
I know the DNA works on T-Mobile, I use it, I'm more curious about if at&t gets LTE, T-Mobile doesn't around here due to the higher bands they use for it, at&t uses lower bands the DNA can use so it might get LTE.

I haven't messed with qpst in years, probably like 7, the last time I did was an experiment while on sprint with a couple windows smart phones I owned, I'll leave it at that lol
[HTC Droid DNA] necosino:
Ah, I have only used StraightTalk, which doesn't get LTE anyway. The bands match other AT&T LTE phones though, so I would imagine that with an LTE-enabled carrier and SIM, it should work.
[HTC Droid DNA] armydog13:
I haven't updated to the latest Validus build yet, but everything has worked for me on the previous build. Currently my DD
[HTC Droid DNA] orangechoochoo:
Im on the latest Validus and everything is fine however init.d is not supported. The last time I tried this version of Validus I had it restore my apps which included universal init.d app so I believe posting that init.d works on this ROM was not accurate.

On another note, I tried broken dlx and it would not move past the splash screen even if I flashed the ROM only and nothing else such as gapps or kernel.
[HTC Droid DNA] d08speed3:
I have random dead radio =\ out the blue the radio will stop working and I can't call out. Back on 6.0 for now. Really can't feel the speed difference in 6.1 with the optimizations.

[HTC Droid DNA] orangechoochoo:
I thought Pio's initial release of Validus had those optimizations.
[HTC Droid DNA] orangechoochoo:
Pio, do you have anything brewing that needs to be tested?
[HTC Droid DNA] pio_masaki:
Couple things, but first I need to build a new Validus with that RIL patch that Danjull pointed out awhile back so it doesn't crash the radio and it always has sync issues.

[HTC Droid DNA] pio_masaki:
OK validus is up with the ril patch, usual place for the brave. Meanwhile I need to figure out my repo problems.

Stoopid question.. But, when you release updates you are syncing to the latest updates and commits the CM10.1 guys are releasing right? I was just wondering.. and I know you implement your own fixes and such.. Was just pondering life and such.. This thought hit me.. LOL.. But I think they are down to pretty much the only issues being ... Well, I honestly don't know what is left.. I don't have any major issues with this or any other AOSP rom so I'm not sure.. I don't do any blue tooth streaming so maybe that's it? Either way.. Was just wondering what your process was..

Is halo in the 6/9 build?
[HTC Droid DNA] pio_masaki:
If by CM 10.1 guys you mean chad0989 and flyhalf and their trees/kernel then yes I keep up to date with their work, if by CM you mean the CM source then no, and what portion of CM is included is ROM dependant, things PAC has like hardware keys are missing in revolt even though they share parts of CM10.1 as does Carbon, each have different stuff merged together.

Then I need to arrange the trees a little to build with the ROM, and address any ROM/device specific issues that arise. I try to do this for every ROM, though carbon, PAC and revolt hold the highest priority due to user base. This is the main reason I don't do nightly updates but update as new things come up, features, fixes, etc.

I thought you might be able to drag it. If you long press it, system ui prompts for root access. But even if you give it access, it doesn't seem to do anything. Maybe a future feature for the carbon team or something they are working on already.

Pio, when are you going to publicly share X-Ray ROM? The best feature is that you point the camera at a girl (automatocally verifies over 18 and consent) and depending on your settings it can display it in its natural glory, airplane strip, or Brazilian.
[HTC Droid DNA] pio_masaki:
Its under development, found a game breaking bug where a slow connection, IE edge or even 3G in some cases, would result in the ROM passing the age verification process when they in fact were not supposed to pass. It would then crash the camera and require a reboot to get it back. It would continue to FC if you were still in range making the phone unusable until you moved to a less chimo distance.
[HTC Droid DNA] betterthancrimzon:
Hello Pio,

I'm trying to use MirrorEnabler to get my DNA to work with Chromecast. With recent updates, it seems we need:

"For those STILL having issues,

Check /system/lib/hw directory for the file "audio.r_submix.default.so".

If it doesn't exist, ask your device maintainer to add audio.r_submix.default to

the product_packages in the device.mk file. (You may not know what it means, but they will.)

EXAMPLE (Thanks, [MENTION=3900214]runandhide05[/MENTION]!):

http://review.teameos.org/#/c/389/"

Is this something you could put in your next build? Or is this something I could attempt myself?

Thanks for the ROM regardless.
[HTC Droid DNA] pio_masaki:
I'll add it in, and I'll post up a link so you can add it yourself to your current install as well, should make everyone happy.
[HTC Droid DNA] betterthancrimzon:
Thank you. I have been using Carbon for a long time, for at least a year and a half. I don't update constantly, but I log in and see the weirdness of people every now and again, so thanks for sticking with it.

On a side note, I installed the older version of MirrorEnabler, that doesn't do that audiocheck, and it seems to work. But for future compatibility... ha!
[HTC Droid DNA] orangechoochoo:
I was a die hard Carbon fan until you introduced me to Validus which to me seems like an improved version of Carbon except the boot animation. Thanks Pio :good:
[HTC Droid DNA] pio_masaki:
Ok took a look, that's already in the device trees for the DNA, minues the addition to audio_policy.conf, I'll update that and see if it kicks over for you, in the meantime you can use an updated one that I'll put up in a second and edit in.

Edit:

Try this http://pio-masaki.com/download.php?file=Droid%20DNA/test/audio_policy.conf It should correct your little issue. It goes into /system/etc. A reboot will be needed.
[HTC Droid DNA] gillim74:
Please keep improving validus its a good stable rom
[HTC Droid DNA] betterthancrimzon:
Hmm. I tried copying it over with a File Explorer, but it said Read Only and wouldn't let me. So I tried pushing it via adb and it said the same thing. "Read-only file system". Thoughts?
[HTC Droid DNA] pio_masaki:
You'll need to mount system as write, in adb that's adb remount unless you're in recovery, then just mounting system should be writable, if not then adb remount after mounting system will do it.

You can also do mount -o remount,rw /system in a root terminal or adb shell.
[HTC Droid DNA] gillim74:
Anyway you can update revolt to kk and ioap
[HTC Droid DNA] pio_masaki:
IOAP has been abandoned since may, I won't be updating that until works begins on it again. I abandoned revolt after no progress had been made for a few months and started to focus on a couple specific projects instead of trying to support 6 or whatever ROMs, namely putting my time into Carbon, Validus and helping get a new ROM going as I can.

I was going to ask why you didn't ask in the revolt thread but I think I closed it :p lol

I'll need to go back over the threads and mark which is abandoned or discontinued, been awhile since I have.

I'll check on revolt and see how its doing as its been awhile, if its going again I'll update it for you when I have time for it. I start work tomorrow so my limited ROM time is now even more so.

What's the Broken ROM?
[HTC Droid DNA] gillim74:
I searched for the broken rom thread but didnt find one.i tried that rom and i must say very impressive.any way hover and themes could be added.
[HTC Droid DNA] orangechoochoo:
I couldn't get it to boot, it would just hang at the splash screen. I might try again when Pio makes a new build.
[HTC Droid DNA] pio_masaki:
It's a new ROM I'm helping get started. It hasn't released yet.

There is no thread yet, it's still in it's alpha stages, there will be a thread when it's felt to be ready for release. Themes will likely not be added as it requires a lot of CM frameworks and that's not the direction the devs want to go with now. Hover I'm not sure about yet.

There's a more recent build from the last time you mentioned it, I think, and I know that one boots, seen it with muh own eyeballs.

Broken is a super alpha build right now and I'd rather not discuss it to much, it was uploaded for some people to test, it wasn't meant to really go out into the wild yet so I'll be deleting it tonight hint hint when I have time so I hope no one else goes and grabs it for the hell of it.
[HTC Droid DNA] seeingwhite:
Running latest validus. Today's Google+ update causes the systemui to force close indefinitely and requires a reinstall of the ROM.
