Just flashed this on the n4 and enjoying the awesomeness, then I was thinking "haven't seen any posts from WoH in a while. I wonder if the desire will get anymore updates" ...ten minutes later I see this. :D Thanks.

Did anyone flash this on his/her Desire?
[Desire Android Development] Chromium:
I just did.

[Desire Android Development] aledex:
Now I can't flash it on the Desire, I will probably do it tomorrow, please notice me if it would explode / become self-conscious / try to kill you.
[Desire Android Development] Masteq:
It doesn't explode or anything, installs nicely, quite fast actually :) Had the same problem as [MENTION=4717497]Dr_Livesey[/MENTION], cannot watch emails and use browser as the sites are teared as shown on screen and log, dunno if it helps somehow. Cheers.

[21-09-14][Android 4.3_r2.2]ParanoidAndroid 3.99.1-RC1 | Test 7

What is 21-09-13 in the title of a thread?

.

.
[Desire Android Development] Co.Tibi:
Crap... that's what I wanted to know...
[Desire Android Development] kostelo:
Just flashed test 7 build. Everything buttery smooth. Looks like a daily driver for me, however I will test it better tomorrow. Thanks Woh.
[Desire Android Development] Chromium:
Im still alive after flashing. The new halo features are pretty cool, especially the long press status bubbles.

Its also quite fast, except the animations arent as smooth as in some of the older 4.2 builds.
[Desire Android Development] kostelo:
Unfortunately same bug exists in test 7 build. Pretty major bug for me, though the rom is almost perfect in general. Hope it gets fixed.
[Desire Android Development] Co.Tibi:
So is the tearing related to the graphics drivers? Does anyone know how to fix it? Does Santa actually exist? Did they really land on the moon? Huh?
[Desire Android Development] paolo-red1:
IDK if this commit is related because I don't remember what adreno drivers we use atm, but take a look http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/50417/

Also drewis said that he had to revert to 4.1 libs for jb 4.3 beacuse it had no display with newer libs and he would have to write new hack to use new api (or something similar)
[Desire Android Development] WoH:
The commit you linked just fixes definitions. Nothing that might be helpful unfortunately.

In order to use the new libs you need lots of kernel patches that aren't available yet. (ION, Fence sync* 4 example)

Edit: Fence sync isn't required.
[Desire Android Development] stevesuk:
Not sure if anyone has mentioned this, but there is no tearing on Nikez' own 4.3 ROM. Also on this ROM (and on the Evervolv nightlies) my 'home' hardware button doesn't work. But on Nikez' ROM its fine. So I guess he must have tweaked the standard Evervolv 4.3 kernel/release - the trick is finding out what he changed :)
[Desire Android Development] polac:
How about camera and videocam?
[Desire Android Development] Co.Tibi:
I think being able to read an email or view a web page might be more important than snapping a selfie for your facebook. But that's just me...
[Desire Android Development] WoH:
[YOUTUBE]JmvCpR45LKA[/YOUTUBE]

I will just requote this video everytime until you (yes you, [MENTION=704790]polac[/MENTION]) learn this.

Little update for everyone else:

- Android 4.3_r3 merged

- Working on the browser tearing

No, this doesn't mean camera could be affected. It's still choppy. I will personally write you a PM as soon as is is fixed if you promise to never ask this again (srs).
[Desire Android Development] yeahman45:
why not have both?
[Desire Android Development] Masteq:
Fix k3, then you'll have both. For now, WoH wants to give us a usable rom, with possible to do fixes
[Desire Android Development] WoH:
:good:

With proper browsing for your next release for example :angel:
[Desire Android Development] Co.Tibi:
Well thank you very much :)

[Desire Android Development] TonyStark R.I.P.:
Would I be wrong to assume that the first post here is incorrect?

Not sire why people are ridiculed by asking a question that says it does work.

[MENTION=4372824]WoH[/MENTION] please update what is and is not working in the OP.

Thank you
[Desire Android Development] WoH:
I am sorry if I tend to lose my mind after some time (especially whe users don't search the thread).

The OP is updated (just like it was). It says that video recording is working, but it's choppy.

Just like states in the changelog (OP) and the post informing about the new version in the thread (post #1 you quoted):

The OP also states that this ROM is for advanced users so I can assume everyone knows what pre-ION 4.2.2 video recording was like.

Edit:

This is not the first time this thread was cleaned up because of this user. I think the feedback for the last statement shows this. Furthermore, this is the dev forum, I wouldn't have reacted like that if someone asked this in the Q&A thread.
[Desire Android Development] aledex:
TonyStark I know that your work is stressing and not easy, but really, WoH is one of the kindest and more patient dev ever, at least on Desire platform... And the last one remained, since nikez has abandoned XDA because of some mod who closed the thread he was working in without asking explanation, and VJ because he has no time left; but more importantly both of them left because they where tired as s... of herds of stupid users who keep asking stupid question in developing threads, even if they have been answered multiple times inside the thread itself or in the OP.

It's absurd that inside thread with the OP claiming (caps lock) "pre-alpha version" some idiot asks when K3 will be working or other idiotic questions. And don't let me start with users who are simply rude and offending if they aren't answered ASAP at their useless demands.

I think developers should stop paying for this, please make your rules stricter and ban immediately those people.

___________________________________________

Sorry for the OT.

WoH, I am now downloading the last version... I have decided to update from the old 3.68, who is now become quite slow and laggy (don't now why). I will post a comment about the new version with the working/not working things I find as soon as possibile, hoping that people who can't understand the OP shall be relieved :)
[Desire Android Development] Masteq:
Great update, browsing and emails now work! But another bug from my side, I don't know if it's bad download, but maybe it's not. After first boot WiFi seems to work, can set my gmail account and browse play store, but when i tried to reconnect my wifi, it doesn't work anymore. It shows "authenticating" and such below the host name, but when it connects, it doesn't work anymore, there is no "connected" sign. Also, I can't turn off my mobile data, every time i try to turn it off, it stays on. I tried full wipe twice, still the same. But even if it's connected, it just doesn't work. I'll try downloading it one more time, don't know if it helps. More info to come :)
[Desire Android Development] zarac:
Same here. WiFi works after a reboot, but only for 5-10 minutes - then it disconnects and I can't connect anymore. Toggling airplane mode doesn't help either, only reboot does.

I flashed the rom last night and I noticed this right away, but I wanted to see what happens overnight. This morning I still couldn't connect to WiFi, but now my mobile data was also not working, even though the icon indicates hsdpa connection - airplane mode didn't help here either.
[Desire Android Development] k3lcior:
Found this:
[Desire Android Development] aledex:
Yep, also 3g connection won't turn off when requested...
[Desire Android Development] Co.Tibi:
Same problem here. Except I also lost all apps and data after about two or three restarts. Also did anyone notice that permissions can't be fixed any longer? I tried it multiple times from recovery and it didn't work.
[Desire Android Development] aledex:
It usually takes some time... How long have you waited?
[Desire Android Development] k3lcior:
I had this issue aswell, on stable version too. I think sd-ext partition is getting corrupted somehow, idk maybe something wrong with a2sd script.
[Desire Android Development] Co.Tibi:
Well Woh said on his twitter that it's an a2sd script problem that he's investigating. In the last two versions fixing permissions take about 0.5 milliseconds. That's how I knew that FP doesn't work. It usually took at least 50 scnds to a 1 1/2 mins.
[Desire Android Development] WoH:
*cough*

I won't go into detail in here, but I had a wrong timing of sysinit. It needs to block all services to ensure a2sd is mounted.

Furthermore I'm working on the WiFi / data drops. Since I don't use data on my HTC Desire at the moment this might take a few days until I find time to confirm the changes I pushed. The WiFi -> data signal drop should be fixed right now , but I need feedback once I upload a new version, feel free to compile any time.

Unfortunately I can't repoduce any WiFi issues, I only noticed I manually had to reconnect to my WiFi after I moved out of its range.

Changelog:

a2sd / sd-ext fixes
swap/zram handling
surfaceflingerconsumer: Select texture target based on pixel format
telephony fixes

[MENTION=4372824]WoH[/MENTION] or anyone else who knows how the Mega works ,can someone please tell how do i find the files downloaded through mega.

It shows 100% but i cannot see ny files in appdata or anywhere..:confused:

due to this confusion , i think i must have downloaded rom file atleast 3-4 times!!:D:silly:
[Desire Android Development] WoH:
Usually, mega.co.nz "downloads" work like a stream, you have to wait until the browser shows 100%, afterwards you'll see the actual transfer to your download directory takes place which should take only a few secs since the data had been streamed already.
[Desire Android Development] XYZ-Moscow:
Use Google chrome for download from mega.

https://mega.co.nz/#!HEg0ES6D!ONMBAQpSe_pyLiD2RlvnBGiRjlhH-H8gf1KdEAlKIws

Hope you don't mind testing, don't have time right now.
[Desire Android Development] Masteq:
Just installed this, now when I turn off the data it stays that way, but when it's on, still doesn't work, it seems that it's restarting every couple seconds, one second it shows 3G connection, next couple seconds it disappears, then shows up, and on and on. Log included.

Hope it helps!
[Desire Android Development] k3lcior:
Any chance you could include the a2sd / sd-ext fixes in stable 3.60 version?

If not which files has to be replaced, only a2sd script or something else?
[Desire Android Development] aledex:
I don't understand, a2sd should work properly in 3.60... Just turn it on via terminal! Or am I missing something? :D
[Desire Android Development] WoH:
Click on picture for another testbuild. Hopefully data works for real this time (for me it does [abload.de/img/screenshot_2013-09-26cbxis.png). In case mega wants to get a key: IF2h-W_wyCU4El5XVMtUOFLpjroccrN-V0DupWVh6J8
[Desire Android Development] Masteq:
WoH, you sly.. :D If not for that quote, i would just laugh idly at that picture :D

/// EDIT: Still doesn't work..

..jk, after few minutes of using, everything works nice and fast, you are my personal god now.
[Desire Android Development] WoH:
So it's like with me, it needa a few secs after boot but afterwards, everything is fine?

WoH aka
[Desire Android Development] Masteq:
yep, it needs about 30s to 1m to set itself, but after that it's working just fine, at least for now :D

/// EDIT:

Found two more, minor one, but still.

- Tearing in gmaps, not so severe as before, but a little

- When updating apps in store, after it finishes, in notifications it says "[appname] has been succesfully installed" but in play store, that blue line is still going (i know that it's a very, VERY minor, but it exists :D )
[Desire Android Development] ivan_dekov:
I installed the latest version and everything was working perfectly (wifi, data ...). then something happened: pie disappeared and the top of the screen got cut off. If you go into expanded desktop everything was ok again but i want notification bar :( I suspect the problem is with the Hybrid engine because i tried tablet mode and nothing happened.
[Desire Android Development] WoH:
Log/Screenshots?

I know it's hard sometimes, but I can't imagine where this might come from, but I'd like to fix it for a more polished and bug-fixed release.

I fixed a2sd, WiFi, data, navbar landscape and statusbar header layout and now there's not so much stuff left (apart from Camera / tethering haxx0ry + Masteq's bug reports)

P.S.:

Forgot the SysUI drawables not properly showing signal strength (only when disconnected from google)

P.P.S.

-> ;) <.
[Desire Android Development] ivan_dekov:
The bugs are starting when I change something in the pie setting. Here are two screenshots and two logcats from Catlog:
[Desire Android Development] WoH:
I think I'll throw out a proper rls soon. Many long-term UI bugs I never felt like fixing. I hope I can get it up today since I'm starting my computer-engineering bachelor as of tomorrow. Will see how much time I can spare for hobbies (more dev on this phone for example, damn, I should obviously get a life). Stay safe guys and get a new Nexus soon (or another dev / open device, Sony, Oppo etc., I think you which ones I'm talking about).
[Desire Android Development] Masteq:
So our desire is slowly dying here.. But good luck with your college, we hope that you'll have some time for your hobbies :D Also, we look forward to that rls :D

VPN IPSec Xauth PSK

Hi,

I configured a VPN IPSec Xauth PSK to a AVM Fritz!box. I can see the established connection on the fritz!box, but I can not use it and on the phone the the connection is lost after a few seconds.

Does anyone else have the same problem or better a solution?

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] TimHermans:
Thanks Woh for this nice build.. Everything seems to be working as it should.. I slimmed it to 180mb and use a2sd yny and it's pretty fast.. Data is working like a charm..

*for those ready to ask if I want to share my slimmed build.. Yes but I can't.. I included some paid apps..

Greetz
[Desire Android Development] p70shooter:
Just wanna say thanks for the Rom. Big thumbs up, fast and working like a charm. :)
[Desire Android Development] Co.Tibi:
Thank you WoH for the awesome ROM. The last release is grand. Also, thank you *nix for the WiFi tether fix (it know works with wpa2 psk security too). Sweeeeeeeeeeeeet
[Desire Android Development] Chromium:
Is Test 9 considered as your stable release, or is it still to come?
[Desire Android Development] WoH:
Although it would be nice, a ROM doesn't get better by calling it stable.

If you don't depend on taking videos with the great camera (lmao) that comes with it, I think you're fine (from my point of view).

I've been using it lately and I haven't had weird behavior I experienced with some jb / ics (even gb) builds (yes, I just said gb wasn't all that great), but for me it's not my primary phone, so I can't tell if it's safe 24/7.

Edit:

If you were asking about builds, no ETA.

I can't hold back right now. Your sig just looks too good, good job.
[Desire Android Development] Chromium:
No, I wasnt asking for an ETA. Was just wondering if this was the 'proper release' that you were talking about here. Shouldn't have used the word "stable", sorry about that.

Im still on your 3.68 beta build since the day you released it, and its honestly the most stable/smooth 4+ I've ever used. Its funny cause this build is like a hidden gem...i feel like im the only one using it, since it was never added to the op and no one really made a big deal out of it. When im free i'd like to update to your new 3.99 rc2 build, as it looks like everyones enjoying it :good:

Oh, and thanks for the compliment on the sig. If you'd like i can make you one when i have some time.

Thanks for all your work...its greatly appreciated.
[Desire Android Development] WoH:
I know the 4.2.2 builds ended very unexpected, but I felt like keeping the innovation going and 4.2.2 was like a dead end.

TBH, ION is nice, but I don't really miss it that much and it makes it easier to mess with the camera actually.

If I was you, I'd nandroid that thing and give 4.3 a try, since you don't have to swich hboot, restoring should be fast.

Apart from 4.3 benefits, layout issues have been sorted and to me, it kind of feels like it isn't that misplaced on the device any more.

I'd love to use one of your sigs if you could make it a little bit paranoid* that would be awesome, but please take your time, I don't want to steal any time.

* This is how my github looks. Notice that lovely image below organizations? (I guess it won't work for you since I should be a hidden member)
[Desire Android Development] mrbennett:
+1. I've been using 3.68 also since release and it is the best jb:):thumbup:
[Desire Android Development] Balino:
I'm Been using 3.68 too... Quite smooth! 4.3 will be smoother in my toughts...
[Desire Android Development] Chromium:
Yea ill definitely give it a try when im free.

And I'll send you a PM later about the sig. Dont worry about it, ive stolen a lot of your time...i owe you :)
[Desire Android Development] c4p3fi3rr:
Does this rom require a swap partition on the SD card? If it's not required, will it run better if my phone as got swap on SD?
[Desire Android Development] k3lcior:
I dont think this kernel support swap, and no it wont run any better even if swap was supported.
[Desire Android Development] Balino:
But it would be better having swap on internal memory... Any chance of seeing swap implemented?
[Desire Android Development] zarac:
Test9 is almost perfect. I have not had a single reboot since I flashed it, no notification sound problem, and now wifi+data is fixed too. Looks like a daily driver to me.

Great job, WoH.

The only issue I have is with Youtube app which won't play any videos. The placeholder for the video just stays black (look at the screenshot).

Is it just me?

Here's also the logcat if it helps.

I still can't believe how well this three-year-old device handles the latest Android OS version.

Thank you so much for your time and effort.
[Desire Android Development] k3lcior:
Yes i can confirm it too, homever older Youtube versions works fine. I'm using 4.5.17 and no issues. (just dont update it in Google Play)

https://www.dropbox.com/s/g6qpcgclmjylpnq/YouTube_4.5.17.apk
[Desire Android Development] aelfinn:
I found Test9 to be very fast and very smooth indeed. I did encounter two problems, though: 1. When choosing a ringtone, the android media process crashed (every time); 2. I wasn’t able to execute "su" in the terminal—after about 10 seconds it said, “permission denied”. Any idea what might be up with that?

Edit: This seems to be resolved in the 20131006 build. Whether it was the build or me, those two issues are gone for me.

But: I can’t activate a2sd. "a2sd install" results in "No such file or directory".
[Desire Android Development] WoH:
Hacked around with the WiFi, there were a lot of things left to optimize. I haven't tested if this affected battery drain on wifi (some users mentioned problems). Apart from that, I changed a lot of stuff behind the scenes, I've been working on stuff that got out of date and had to be done eventually (like fix the bravo adds/removes on github). Furthermore, since the PA gerrit is up, you can also submit your features directly:

http://gerrit.paranoidandroid.co/

(And it's a good possibility to follow our patches and see what will (not) be merged and why)

Anyway, this is the build:

[Desire Android Development] aelfinn:
Is it just me or is there no way to change the tablet-y look in settings and GMail, with a sidebar on the left and very small fonts indeed, to something more suited to a smartphone screen? I have left no stone unturned in settings but failed to find an option for that…
[Desire Android Development] Plex.Le:
Go to setting-Hybrid properties-apps, find gmail,then tap on the upper right to restore dpi setting for gmail.
[Desire Android Development] aelfinn:
Thank you, I’d never have found that setting on my own.

[Desire Android Development] yeahman45:
do you plan to port tytung's 720p camera/camcorder fix on hd2 to desire?
[Desire Android Development] WoH:
no sources

I don't hack around with compiled libs and afaik the attempt of others trying to port it over failed.
[Desire Android Development] yeahman45:
:( ah ok thx for replying anyway

edit: i thought tytung's work was open source?
[Desire Android Development] Co.Tibi:
Can't this Tytung guy be asked to release the source?
[Desire Android Development] yeahman45:
my gapps/playstore is crashing each time..

edit: nvm it's a bad wipe lol

edit2: nopes not a bad wipe :( still all google apps are crashing like every 5 secs
[Desire Android Development] TimHermans:
It's not about releasing source it's about compiling a kernel for a device (partly similar to his) which he prolly doesn't own..
[Desire Android Development] WatsonDue:
No, the problem is that there are no sources for the camera of the bravo. Camera libs are property of HTC, and they didn't release them even after nikez "twitter bomb". Because of this, getting camera works well on jb is very very hard, like WoH said, devs have to fight with hacked libs and unstable code.
[Desire Android Development] tommypacker:
The kernel needs to be patched up for video recording to work. Tytung and I worked on it a little and edited the media_codecs.xml, which should enable video recording if the correct patch is applied to the evervolv kernel. That being said, I don't have the time to work on it anymore but anyone else who can help can,
[Desire Android Development] Co.Tibi:
That's a good start... But could you at least give some pointers to someone that might have the time and the knowledge (if that someone even exists)?
[Desire Android Development] WoH:
Yes

Check if you sd-ext is formatted properly.

Meh, shouldn't be a problem.

nikez asked for the camera sources in order to make it work with ION. Since no one has updated ION to work with 4.3 on bravo, we don't urgently need these sources since we're using pmem which is (at least more) compatible with the ancient libs.

kernel ∨ frameworks/av
[Desire Android Development] WoH:
Yes, this was wiped with my new (AOSP closer) setup, I readded bash for the next update.
