Built again, this time i think the entropysel is properly set. Now video recoding doesn't fc, but the resulting video is crap (like looking through green curtains and video is in wo protions..). Maybe the MDP_YCBYCR_H2V1 isn't in the proper place in the enum?

Anyways uploading to Dropbox now, will post the url soon.

And of course, disclaimer :). I'm not in any way responsible of the results if you use this yadda yadda...

Anyhoo, seems to work. The previous build survived a day with me; woke me up at proper time, surfing the web, reading Dilbert, using Sports Tracker (GPS), listening to music... this shouldn't be too much different, did repo sync before build, though.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] frater:
I tried to build a cm too 2 weeks ago after I received my S4-active. I bumped into the same problems.

I'm now on stock, rooted and removed many Samsung programs. Battery life is great. I've had 14 hours with still 40% left. I might wait for a 4.3 release

Cheers
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] ohwarumbloss:
OK, here I come

Downloaded... Ok

Full Wipe... Ok

Installation... Ok

Boot... Ok (huh,new Boot animation)

Setup... Ok

Restore Apps... Ok

Wlan... Ok

Mobile reception... Better than Stock

Yay, Android 4.3.1 :)

Looks very fluid, so far no bugs found!

It's my wife's birthday today and I won't have time to report more today till the late evening.

Thanks for the build, looks awesome so far.

Please leave PayPal link, I want to donate for your efforts, can't give much but will do.

This is new for Android 4.3.1 and not yet in LeJay's kernel source.

I looked at other sources. It looks like MDP_YCBYCR_H2V1 has to go right there:

enum {
MDP_RGB_565, /* RGB 565 planer */
MDP_XRGB_8888, /* RGB 888 padded */
MDP_Y_CBCR_H2V2, /* Y and CbCr, pseudo planer w/ Cb is in MSB */
MDP_Y_CBCR_H2V2_ADRENO,
MDP_ARGB_8888, /* ARGB 888 */
MDP_RGB_888, /* RGB 888 planer */
MDP_Y_CRCB_H2V2, /* Y and CrCb, pseudo planer w/ Cr is in MSB */

Hi,

Great rom, thank you ...

Is it possible to implante these original function back in the next rom ? http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=45023111&postcount=1676

Thank you
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] ohwarumbloss:
Phone calls... Ok

Both Speakers & Microphone... Ok

3D Games... Ok

Scrolling in XDA and Facebook is stuttering but not that much.

Basic Camera & Video recording is working, no problems with playback.

Will keep this as my daily driver.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] spegelius:
Ah, good find. I'll have a look into this sometime. But if understood how enum works correctly, the position shouldn't matter as longs the same enum is used throughout the code. But then again... well one way to find out.

Actually, now that you mentioned it, googling MDP_YCBYCR_H2V1 brought out this: https://github.com/MoKee/android_kernel_google_msm/commit/c53fb6d134fab3e3d7a022ba857d9cad4fcfa59a

---------- Post added at 10:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:29 PM ----------

So video recording is working for you? Strange, for me it produces videos that play, but the picture is messed up... maybe some difference between drivers? I had the original CM 10.2 build on my phone prior to flashing this. Actually didn't even try video with that version so don't really know if this is worse than before...

---------- Post added at 10:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:47 PM ----------

It's possible, but currently i don't even know where to start looking what to change. Maybe someday if i have time to learn more about CM and Android in general...
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] ohwarumbloss:
To be honest, I took a very short Video of the snow in front of my car. In the dark..

But it worked and the playback was fine. Will try to test more tomorrow.

I came from Samsung Stock.

If only I had a computer. But my wife's Laptop has one huge problem: it belongs to my wife ;)

But it's good to see progress here and I will always try to test stuff!
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] ohwarumbloss:
Video recording is ok but stutters a bit. Picture is very ok

Can't upload video, you will have to trust me ;)
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] spegelius:
I'l trust you, i found out what the problem was :). I had video quality set to 720 which seems to be broken, at least for me. 1080 works, bit choppy though...

I merged the commit i posted above the the jactiveltexx sources, did repo sync and built a new version. Also flashed newest recovery, which is built alongside the rom. No noticeable differences with the ROM, only that in CWM there's a new option after flashing a zip: Choose zip from previous folder or something like that, which is neat when flashing multiple zips.

Downloading :)

One thing I noticed yesterday while searching for Burger King in a city... The symbol on Google Maps, that shows my position, was turning around all the time.

Location was very accurate but circling.

Else...

Bluetooth... Ok :)

Music playback... Ok :)

Even the sound is clear and loud, not like older CMs I tried on other phones.

No flaws with the Rom, it's working perfect!

Have a nice Sunday!

Try calibrating your compass. You can do it with the app "gps status and toolbox" or you can try by moving your mobile in a 3dimensional movement like the number 8. (make sure the phone is turned twice around each axis)
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] ohwarumbloss:
Will try, thanks for the hint!

Dirty flashed the 1207 build with clearing cache and dalvik cache worked without problems. Now on it :)

Still waiting for PayPal link ;)

Edit:

In theory, AOKP from S4 i9505 (if there is any) should run with this Kernel, shouldn't it?

Edit2: GPS is working perfect now :)
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] ohwarumbloss:
I don't want to spam or highjack this thread but here is another small report.

I downloaded SlimRom from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=44712806

backed up the 1207 build, installed the SlimRom, straight advanced restored the boot.img, wiped both caches, and booted. It works!

Of course the Hardware Keys are not working but you can activate onscreen keys.

The bigger problem is the camera as you can't activate it. No Connection.

That will need some modifications of the libs I think, maybe someone with a PC wants to look into this?

But! Fact is, 4.3 Roms from S4 are running with this Kernel :)
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] spegelius:
Actually i never clean caches when upgrading to newer builds, too much hassle ;). Good to hear the GPS is working properly. I had some strangeness with GPS last week, Sports Tracker would start the GPS but then shut it down almost as soon as it has started. The funny thing is that the recorded bicycle trip was correctly tracked, so apparently it still works...

And the Paypal link is in on the left, XDA provided button, it should be visible? Still, this is mostly LeJays work, i'm just building stuff. I actually send a question to him if it's okay to post these builds here or if i should make another thread... but donations are much appreciated, thanks :)

Nice find! Hmm it does make sense as S4 and S4 Active have very similar hw... i might take a look at this at some point, currently with christmas coming and all, my free time is limited
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] ohwarumbloss:
a) GPS

I hadn't time to move my bicycle due to a lot of sickness and bad weather so I didn't try tacking but I'm very curious if it will work. Was one of the main reasons for me to buy this phone

b) PayPal

Ok will have to look into the Desktop Version for the link. Don't expect to much, it's not what is worth to me, it's how much I can give!

c) SlimRoms

Don't, please don't ever hurry. What you're doing is great and we will stay here and wait patiently till something happens ;)

I could do some copy'n'paste if only I knew where to start. Of course the boot.img but there are so many files for the camera... If someone tells me which files to replace I'd love to provide a modified SlimRom zip to install :)

Greetings

Thomas

Is the phone still rooted after new CWM flashing?
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] ohwarumbloss:
Yes it is.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] DiaboluZ:
Please, what Odin version did you use? I tried with 3.09 as original CWM post indicates and I am getting md5 error, dowloaded the file 2x and same

TIA
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] ohwarumbloss:
If you don't have CWM installed already, use the one that's linked in OP with Odin. If you're coming from a previous build, just install the zip, you don't need Odin.

I hope I got you right?
[Galaxy S 4 Active Original Android Development] DiaboluZ:
So, new built was installed OK with previous CWM, both Sportstracker and Endomodo running without problems with GPS, as before.

Only issue is still the camera, not recording with stock app, but Focal works so so.

Thanks for your work, I guess 50%/50% would be fair by now :cyclops:

[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] Meizirkki:
I also got this phone a couple of weeks ago and like some users have noted, the carrier signal is occasionally lost or dropping from 3G to 2G. I believe this has to do with the hardware design of P6. Because of the metal body, antennas are located on the small plastic bottom piece. This leads to Wifi and cellular antennas being too close to each other and causing interference.

This could all be BS, but I think it's this, as whenever I turn on Wi-fi connetion sharing, the carrier signal strenght drops >10dB. See if it helps you to turn of Wi-fi completely. It gets rid of occasional unwanted scanning.

BTW, I'm in finland and recently dumped DNA for Elisa. My os build is B107.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] palooh81:
Mine came with b106 from the box and i didn't experience any signal drop outs as i am experiencing on b107, so im not sure if this is a hardware related issue.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] khakala:
Same here nothing with B106 but happens a lot with B107
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] zordo:
Is there an app that can track this on background? Theres some info in settings-battery history. Theres a graph for cell reseption, I think its safe to assume green is good data network, is grey no network, or no mobile data? Or does this really drop signal three times a day for minutes at a time?

the bar turns red when out of gsm-network(tried without sim-card), i guess gray is no mobiledata(or 2g) and green is 3g or hsdpa.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] zhenaguo:
i see

it can be solved

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pipusz:
Disclaimer: I know what is the best for me and what I want to use. Don't flame me for the title, first read it please.

Let's say we have two options:

1. Stock ROM with applications that add functionality and possibly run in the background, e.g. Power Toggles or Lightflow,

2. Custom ROM with built-in tweaks, like a quick-settings mod or some kind of LED customization.

So, my question is: which is better in terms of everything (available RAM, battery, etc)? Stock software with running apps or custom built-ROM with modifications to the source files? Or are they equal basically? I'd vote for option 2, but honestly, I have no idea, that's why I'm asking. Technical details are welcomed as well as personal opinions.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MasterLinuxer:
When speaking of Nexus device, there is no real difference between custom and stock in terms of official apps and bloatware, because of its vanilla (pure android) nature.

The main difference is the ability to control and modify more sides of your ROM. This can easily lead to better performance, battery, and so on because you can customize it by your needs and use.

The only reason, IMO, to stay on stock is if you want automatic updates, remain warrenty Etc. In terms of performance and such it is recommended to flash a custom ROM.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
Why don't you just give it a try? They're free. Not like you can't go back.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pipusz:
Meh, I'm happy with my current ROM, not trying anything. Just had too much time on the train to wonder ;)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fernandezhjr:
I take it you are speaking of approach. I prefer the first. Sure you can get more out of a custom rom, but it comes all at one time in a single flash and you might get things you don't want. I like customizing by installing apks, flashing mods, and applying themes. It is more enjoyable this way and I like the learning involved. Of course, this doesn't mean that I don't flash a custom rom now and then.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Galaxo60:
It is true that custom ROM's bring things that maybe you don't want, but that's why we should search for the correct ROM. In my case, I hate all the Hybrid stuff, so I keep myself far away from ROM's with this, but on the other hand I like Halo and Expanded Desktop. These 3 features are from PA, but I know I don't want this. What should I do?. Look for ROM with these 2. In my case, was Carbon, also because it has AOKP Ribbons which I find pretty interesting.

I think there are not many options about mods and customizations in stock. There is a whole world of possibilities about apps, but certain things cannot be done with stock, so I prefer most of the time custom ROM. Right now I'm on pure AOSP 4.3 and I'm really enjoying the pure Android experience, although I miss some of the modifications of custom ROM's.

[MENTION=3320715]Pipusz[/MENTION]

I think myself: why bother to get like 10 apps to make something, when you can have them as part of system?.

[Sony Xperia ZR] tudork:
So, after I finally got the charging dock, after 3 weeks of charging the phone through the USB port, I decided to test it in water for the first time. I checked that the flaps were well sealed and put it in water, as it was showing a video. All good so far. After 2 minutes, I took it out and put it on a towel to dry. Still working. After 5 more minutes, I noticed that the USB cover was slowly coming out by itself. I pushed it back more securely, but it was still pushing out by itself. I opened it entirely then covered the port again securely. 15 minutes later, phone still working. I DO HOPE nothing went wrong. I will be back tomorrow with another update. I am not sure why the cover was acting up. I am sure I placed it well before I put the phone in water, I checked like 10 times.
[Sony Xperia ZR] tudork:
Following morning, phone works well. Last night, I also opened the back cover and dried the drops of water in the area outside the battery protective rubber ring. I guess the phone is alright but I probably won't do the water exercise very often, I was nervous as hell :)
[Sony Xperia ZR] CressKH:
Thanks for sharing.

I always hesitate to put my XZR to test in water until last night when I was texting my gf when I was having my shower.

Pressure from my shower induced touches but it was expected.

Then I put it into test under water and it works just fine.

Now I'm just wondering how will it perform if I test it in sea for <1meter <10mins since the IP58 stated only for fresh water...
[Sony Xperia ZR] tudork:
The word around the forums is that it will be fine as long as you clean it in fresh water immediately after so no salt can attach to the materials. But... I don't think I'm going to dip it in sea water. Good luck!
[Sony Xperia ZR] E!ch0:
Haha if sony r wrote n decide the ZR is ip58 water resistant device u don't need to worry bro;)

yur device will be ok just check everything is close before u put him into water:)

Ps.

I have the ZR 3 days already n i really wanna get the charging dock everyday check expansys if it's available.. Where do u get yurs man?:)

Still here;)

N!geR -> E!ch0
[Sony Xperia ZR] heikis:
my charging dock came with the phone inside the box.
[Sony Xperia ZR] halfbloodmutant:
Lucky:D
[Sony Xperia ZR] tudork:
Dock from amazon.co.uk, as I am in the UE . but of course I should worry. Just read how many Z users got them damaged by water. There have to be a few defective devices now and then and if you are unlucky, it can be yours :) fortunately mine seems to be ok.
[Sony Xperia ZR] heikis:
if you actually did get a defective device and it gets ruined by water, then nobody will repair it for free.
[Sony Xperia ZR] tudork:
Exactly. That's why I was so nervous to put it in water. Fortunately mine seemed ok.
[Sony Xperia ZR] NeoJeo:
Hello,

I also performed a water resistance test by putting the phone under the shower. All the flaps were closed and I was disappointed that water came under the back panel: the NFC port, camera lens and some interstices on the edges were wet. Does that mean the phone is water resistant... even inside ? :silly:

For those who tested it, did you also notice water under the shell ?
[Sony Xperia ZR] Crag Hack:
hi all...

nice thread BTW , but i have to sya that why we dont make it a thread about testing the whole proofing thing of the XZR (Water/Dust/Drop)

i have question about dropping the phone , is it really shatter proof phone? cause i often drops my phone so i need a phone that has strong screen glass?
[Sony Xperia ZR] NeoJeo:
I think the OP could just rename the thread :)

I'm don't really want to drop my phone for testing but I think the screen is very resistant. It doesn't bend when we press hard on it because there is no air layer between the glass/touch panel and the screen itself, and all the components seem very close.

The frame of the phone also looks strong so I think the ZR is well cooked for drops. Anyway paying attention is the best way to keep a phone alive :D
[Sony Xperia ZR] ming0070913:
It's normal that water goes in the camera part. The phone is fine unless the water goes in the battery part. You need to dry the water inside the back every time you put it in water.
[Sony Xperia ZR] shteren:
there is an laternate dock on ebay for 10 USD, can't post link yet, just enter ebay and search "xperia zr dock" there are several sellers selling them.

i bought one, will probebly arrive in a week or more so i can review it.

and about the anti-shatter film, can anyone elaborate? is it supposed to help defend the glass from shatters? or just keep it from disintigrating once it's been shattered? cos the latter is disaponting.
[Sony Xperia ZR] djpeesh:
It's meant to keep the glass from splintering after it shatters. It's pretty tough. Dropped the phone onto concrete from my hand, so about 4 feet. It survived although the frame got a bit of a dent.
[Sony Xperia ZR] Crag Hack:
frankly , i don't think that having a removable back cover in a waterproof device is a good idea , this thing will make alot of people (like me) hesitate before buying this phone , my brother has the Xperia Acro S , the phone is really solid build, he use it alot under water , he likes to listen to music while taking a shower ,and he always take the phone to pool trips. i dont think the the owner of XZR will dare to do it that often.

maybe i will have to change my mind about buying this phone, after the Z1 was announced.
[Sony Xperia ZR] shteren:
well, you've seen what happend with the xperia Z, it's back is not glued right and water are leaking between the glass and the back into the device for a large number of people, not having a removable back doesn't nessecarly means better.

the ZR removable back actually looks good, this rubber band does a much better job then glue, and for most people who had leakage problem with ZR it was from the flaps and not the back.

now i wonder how can the acro s be more durable, the thing has 5 flaps!! thats 3 more than the ZR, so unless sony really lost thier game producing those flaps it shouldn't be any less better at it.
