You need to wipe data / factory reset before flashing your zips. It goes without saying, but of course backup your apps first.

I tried both CM 10.2 and the Pac-Man ROM based on 4.3 and both gave me the exact same problems when upgrading from 10.1 if I didn't wipe data first. The first boot would go okay, but reboots after would get stuck at the bootloader warning.

Where there changes according to keyboard layout i did use the modified german qwertz with additionnal ALT on sym and ctrl on OK. Now all is changed no >at< and different keys on >shift< -numbers.

Anyway to get back ?
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] kabaldan:
The alternate Photon Q specific keyboard layouts (marked with 'asanti' prefix) should be still present in Skrilax's builds.

Initially, they've been provided by Photon Q Parts in the xt897 device repo, later renamed to MSM8960 Parts and moved to motorola msm8960 common repo, and then accidentally erased from official CM repo with the demise of DeviceParts support in CM10.2 (support for Advanced settings menu entry linked to device specific settings package).

They will return to official CM nightlies as soon as the uncertainties about the final approach to device specific settings in CM10.2 will be clear. Or maybe I'll simply put them in a separate package. Not decided yet. CM10.2 is still in the rapid development phase.

Currently, in the unofficial builds by Skrilax's buildbot, after another shuffling around, they are provided by the QCOM Parts package...
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] kecksk0enig:
I am using skrillax build. Where may i find those settings, tried Every option i could find. Those asanti mappings are missing. Only keypad_8960 is avaible.

Thanx 4 your fast reply.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] kabaldan:
Settings>Language & input>keypad_8960>Set up keyboard layouts

As the things have been moving around between repos during the last few days, it's possible that the Asanti layouts are missing in some recent builds. But it should be there again in the next (09/21) and future builds for sure.

As I'm usually running my own builds done at random times when I need to check the changes I'm working on, I unfortunately don't know the exact state of things in particular uploaded nightlies.

Thanks again for your information. I will check todays nightly if it is avaible. Currently looks like this:

I'm on SkrilaxCZ's nightly from 09/16 (will update tomorrow).

Using the Apollo Player (trying it out) and DSP-Manager for the equalizer.

If I play FLAC files the equalizer looks to be active (I can hear the difference between on and off).

If I play MP3 files the equalizer do no change in the sound. This is weird because I actually expected the other way around.

Please share if you notice the same thing.

Please have a look at my post about this issue here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=45539353#post45539353

(As there's no support for FLAC decoding on Hexagon, FLAC playback always uses LPA and not the tunnel decoding, hence the DSP Manager effects work for FLAC.)
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Loader009:
Interesting, thanks for the information.

That's probably why I noticed some cracking sounds when played some songs. (Even more on my old player.)

So am I understanding this right, that with any kind of equalizer within the player the music is always passed through LPA?

Hi Devs,

Just wondering if anyone has used the app Wake Lock Detector (WLD) to determine where the battery life is disappearing to? Lots of android system processes but I have no clue. Just thought this app could help devs with battery life.

Thanks yall, still enjoying the roms other than that fact.

[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] kecksk0enig:
Is there anywhere a list of supported codecs which utilize the dsp?

I do heare long podcasts and preferr the opus codec for its size. Currently i played the files with bsplayer (because i was unable to find a way to play specified/downloaded file with apollo). Bsplayer did work very well, not much battery draine due 3hour podcast. Maybe it is utilizing the hardware dsp for that codec?
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] jae18708:
No mobile data

Im running 10.2-20130922-Nightly and lost mobile data this afternoon. Worked fine yesterday and this morning.

Also, there's a high pitched sound when recording video. Tried an audio recorder app and didn't have the noise.

EDIT: I'm back on stock and mobile data is working just fine.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Die Bruine:
As Kabaldan stated, you could just opt for disabling the tunnel feature in build.prop.

lpa.decode=true
tunnel.decode=false
tunnel.audiovideo.decode=false

This way all sound gets directed to the main CPU. The cracking won't go away though. I hear it during almost every song for the first 2-5 seconds.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] kecksk0enig:
I meant the opposite, ennsure tunnelmode is used/hence the built in hardware dsp is used which may lead in less cpu time and hence to greater battery life, since main cpu can sleep at least longer, if not deeper.

So opt out for hardware decoding will result in worse battery.

The question was is there a restriction, which codecs the dsp can decode in hardware? So one can choose these codecs for extending battery life.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Die Bruine:
Well the only thing I can say is that in my case 90% of all mp3's pass through the tunnel. So if you stick to mp3's you'll get some improvement in battery life. But since that means DSP enhancements are unavailable, I've disabled the tunnel all together.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] FinntheViking:
No more Focal? I was getting a lot of great use out of it.

EDIT: I should have done some googling. I guess Focal is no longer a part of CM, and is now a standalone app available via the play store.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] kecksk0enig:
What use you need for dsp manager? I did never realy play with it. Baß enhancement additional loudness... take good mastered and quality files and nice headphones and everything is fine. Tinkering with such things will mostly result in less good playback in my opinion. Maybee if you use the phone-speaker for playback one is able to tweak it a little, but altogether this speaker wont get any better. If you fiddle with docking stations, why not tweak the docked to amplifier? So what exactly is your usecase for dsp manager?
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Die Bruine:
As to why bass enhancement is important to me...

This is a discussion we won't be able to settle I guess. Bass enhancement is not just loudness, nor can it be replaced by the equalizer. But I will go as far as to admit I do not like the bass settings in DSP manager. It distorts too much.

I use the app Equalizer which lets me adjust the Bass Booster in 1% increments. At 19% the bass is acceptable for me.

Sound is very personal. I love low bass. Not the short thumps and bumps. But that deep bass, no way I can get those without bass enhancement. A good bassline needs low bass. Maybe not so much when listening to rock for example. But, more so when listening to root rocks reggae or dancehall.

I used Jamo In20M's for a while but the highs are completely off. Now I use TDK IE800 and although phones can't quite deliver the power needed, bass booster makes them enjoyable.

[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] pir8man:
I was running Skrilax_CZ's build when I ran those tests. I found that when I changed over to the official build I lost USB audio through the car dock.

As I understood the hack in Skrilax_CZ's build was to send the audio to the headphone jack while USB audio was non-working. Nonetheless, I have moved back to Skrilax_CZ's build to re-gain usb audio function.

HDMI

I tried sending HDMI to a normal TV, a Vizio 720p dumb tv. With a recent nightly (9/26) of the unofficial CM10.2, I got nothing; with the official CM10.1 release, nothing, but when I tried the stock Sprint ROM, video displayed just fine. Is there something I need to toggle in CM to make it work, or could there be an issue with sending out to 720p devices, or something else?

Please read the last 3 pages of this thread, it has been discussed and explained quite recently.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] kabaldan:
The opus codec is not yet natively supported by Android at all.

Direct decoding on Q6 DSP in tunnel mode currently works only for mp3 and amr codecs.

But LPA stands for "Low Power Audio", so LPA playback mode should still be rather good on battery, next best to Tunnel mode.

i am using the "standard" governor "interactive". my problem is:

the phone is getting fast hot. it seems like it goes fast to the higher clock speeds, even if i am just surfing with chrome or other "tasks" which shouldnt need many power...

anyone other noticed this ?

i am on build from 28.09. and on cm10.2
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] kecksk0enig:
No. Sounds lik a zombie-app/service wich is consuming power

try top in terminal emulator
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Or an app like WakeLockDetector.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] pujdo1:
the problem is, that this problem only appears, when i am using an app like google chrome or so.

i am not using any apps like wakelockdetector.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] kecksk0enig:
Yo get us wrong, IF this problem happens THEN chek for running tasks which MAY cause the problem.

You may use WakeLockDetektor or just top from within terminal to find out which other app may cause this problem.

Also check with 2g only, maybe those temperatures are caused by bad network due to high power output from modem.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Skrilax_CZ:
Yeah if you use Chrome, expect heat. It's coming from AP CPU and the internet connection too.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Die Bruine:
Just installed 0410 skrilax. Fresh to the max. Went trough setup and swapped SD card. Phone would not get passed the bootlogo. Re-flashed, formatted etc... No luck. Had to format storage and re-flash to get it working again.

Anything I forgot to do? If so, please do enlighten me. If not, this is your warming to not swap storage ;)
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Skrilax_CZ:
Gonna need logcat when that happens, it's probably a problem in CM10.2 as a whole.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Die Bruine:
Hope you'll forgive me for postponing that for a while. Just got my phone back after five weeks! Some people should'nt be allowed to go on holidays ;) .

For the time being I'll keep all big programs and space consumers on my Razr.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] mrvek:
Is anybody else having random reboots? It seems very intermittent and somewhat rare but it happens. I guess it is related to suspend timeout ("**** Suspend timeout" being one commonality in panic dump). log snippet

I have a few logs since kernel 3.0.93 (have .95, .96 and 3.0.98, the latest reboot being yesterday). I am not an expert but it seems that the only things that change are addresses and timestamps.

I really haven't noticed any mention of this before.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] pujdo1:
what do you mean with AP CPU ?

and on cm10.1 my phone was never getting hot with chrome like it does on cm10.2
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] mrvek:
Application processor. AP CPU is generating heat. But I don't know what is wrong with chrome to cause that.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] pujdo1:
mhm ok thank you. do you know, if the vsync patch, which fixes the tearing on cm10.2 is available on cm10.1 ? because cm10.1 hasnt the heat problem with chrome
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Skrilax_CZ:
It's not only the chrome, heavy internet connection also generates heat from modem side.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] pujdo1:
mhm ok, but i dont understand then, why is "heat" problem didnt appeared on cm10.1
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] kabaldan:
The interesting information should actually precede the **** Suspend timeout message.

Could you please post the log that captures also what happens some time before that? Thanks.

(I personally haven't experienced a random reboot on cm-10.2 since the last big kernel pushes that happened between 6. to 10. September. But I think that Skrilax already experienced it as well, on the other hand).

[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] pir8man:
is anyone having any luck with car dock/usb audio? if so, what build, etc.

I had a bit of working audio via the car dock with Skrylax's build. however all car dock audio output would stop if I tried to fast forward a pandora song, and stayed that way until a reboot. Also, I could not get any audio via car dock with the official build.

I rolled back to the sprint 4.1.2 release for now. but I would love to get back on CM10.2 if this gets worked out. Also, if anyone needs me to run tests/logs to help out, please just let me know what u need.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] kabaldan:
The Motorola EMU audio dock commits that I've pushed to CM10.2 gerrit at the beginning of September and that were present in Skrilax's builds have been merged to official CM source trees on October 1st. So USB audio output from dock should work in any current CM 10.2 build, both official and Skrilax's.

Pandora service is not available in Europe, so I can't reproduce the issue. Therefore I'd welcome logcat that captures the Pandora failure.

If you know about some free streaming service that is available in Europe and has similar issue, let me know, so I can try to reproduce it.

Reboot stuck at bootlogo

Just a minute ago my phone vibrated 3 or 4 times and rebooted. But it was stuck at the bootlogo. I went into recovery and wiped dalvik. That didn't help. So I performed a "normal" wipe and rebooted. That did the trick.

Is there any way for me to get any usefull data? I am running 1004 Skrilax/TWRP and nothing fancy. Is there a log you want me to share?

Problems with LTE on the 10/4 nightly. I'm on Sprint. First of all after flashing the phone went to GSM mode. i went to the service menu and changed it to LTE/CDMA auto prl and data never worked. CDMA only works (1x). EvDo works (3x). But on LTE only or LTE/CDMA no data connection.

i even flashed my stock rom and updated profile and prl and LTE was working on the stock rom but when i switched back to this one LTE was dead again.

i did dirty flash but that hasnt mattered lately. maybe i need to reflash with a clean install.

also have some weird gibberrish on the service menu, see attached.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] benofilis:
On the 10-2 nightly (Strait Cyanogen) and what appears to be the same issue. No data from an LTE tower (but calling works fine). 3g unaffected, but only way to reliably keep a connection is changing the network mode to cdma/evdo. Running arrrghhh's kernel too, not that I think it matters.

[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] mrvek:
Assuming "normal" wipe is not data wipe/factory reset you can get logs with adb by executing in shell/console

adb root
adb pull /data/logger

dontpanic might be helpfull:

adb pull /data/dontpanic dontpanic

Logs will be in current directory pointed by terminal (usually written on the command line or accesible by executing "pwd" on linux or "echo %CD%" on windows) in their respective folders (logger and dontpanic).

or without access to adb you can use terminal commands

su
cp -R /data/logger/ /storage/emulated/0/
cp -R /data/dontpanic/ /storage/emulated/0/dontpanic/

in which case logs can be found on your internal storage in corresponding folders.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] huatz84:
I can confirm that 04/10 build has the best 3G CDMA data connection. It's been running great on my Q so far. Previous build always disconnected itself. As for LTE bug,I can't test it coz we don't have LTE here. Finally,I can run CM10.2 perfectly. :)

10/4 build still has LTE issues

I can confirm that the 10/4 build still has the LTE issues, the only way to get data is to switch it to CDMA/EvDo, and then of course it's only 3g.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] kabaldan:
The telephony stack in CM 10.2 - mainly cdma/lte and mms - became broken by the android-4.3_r3.1 code merge.

There have been some more or less chaotic patches merged over the last few days trying to fix it, usually instantly breaking something else.

It'll settle down and be fixed hopefully soon. The issues are not Photon Q specific, so there's no need to post the logs here as no developer with Photon Q is on cdma. The fixes will come from upstream. If it will stay broken while fixed for other CM supported devices, only then it will be the time for posting logs and debugging here...

I'm using OpenVPN Settings app as it supports also TAP (bridged VPN) besides TUN (routed VPN).

The only issue I've encountered when setting it up was the need to set a different path for the config and certificate files. The default was /sdcard/openvpn . Currently, in CM 10.2, the mounts under su are not consistent with the mounts as seen by zygote (apps) - /sdcard path is empty under su. The su mounts issue is already being worked on...

Today my WiFi wouldn't work. Still running 1110 BTW. I deleted wpa_suplicant and rebooted. After that WiFi worked again. Just wouldn't connect. Tomorrow morning I'll give the newest nightly a try.

Partially off topic questions if anyone cares to answer...

I also own the XT925 which I thought was the same apart from LTE bands. But another difference I noticed is that the XT897 doesn't support the 5GHz band. Is that correct or should I try playing with the frequencies on my router? Don't need it but I am just curious.

And IMAP push, why is this not possible on CM? I noticed it first on CM9, never got around asking why this isn't an option. If anyone has the answer or a link to the answer, please do let me know.
