[MENTION=5458952]breeno.net[/MENTION], I did a full wipe, wiped everything but the external SD (obviously), and the 2nd core auto hot plug was enabled by default when I checked the Kowalski Manager.
[LG Optimus 2x] sev3n1985:
Hi Tonyp, after some searches on the web I've found a patch for mako to set a vibration intensity on CM 10.2

Here is the source from Cyanogenmod

http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/47076/

Do you thing is possible to port it on our phone? I thing we need some implementation on kernel (correct me if I'm wrong).

Tnks so much
[LG Optimus 2x] breeno.net:
Interesting, [MENTION=2529946]filarod[/MENTION]! If you do the following:

turn off the 2nd core auto hot plug value in KM;

reboot your phone; and

note the value again after reboot.

Is the value on or off after you reboot?

Thanks!

-Breeno
[LG Optimus 2x] filarod:
The 2nd core auto hot plug is turned on. But not only this, all other values turn to default.
[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
[MENTION=5458952]breeno.net[/MENTION] and [MENTION=2529946]filarod[/MENTION]

Thanks for testing and providing feedback! [MENTION=3838586]wfd[/MENTION] compiled me a special Kowalski Manager with 1 as default value for auto hotplug - better save than sorry :)

This just controls the kernel interface.

You'd have to ask pengus to support vibration control in his kernel, if he does I'll gladly add the framework support for it. Until then it's completely useless.
[LG Optimus 2x] filarod:
[MENTION=5458952]breeno.net[/MENTION] [MENTION=3605868]tonyp[/MENTION] I did a reboot again, with my personal settings in Kowalski Manager but 2nd core auto hot plug off, and now all settings didn't return to default but 2nd core auto hot plug was on now. Weird. This is the right behavior, worked as it should this time.
[LG Optimus 2x] breeno.net:
Could be that KM wasn't starting on boot, or that you forgot to give it superuser permissions.

On a related note, can anyone tell me where the Superuser Permissions app is located? It is not in my app drawer. :confused:

-Breeno

UPDATE:

Thanks for the heads up, [MENTION=4696295]Ajsh[/MENTION]!

[MENTION=2529946]filarod[/MENTION], just for completeness, I tested by disabling KM. I had the same behaviour you initially described. Weird given that you never changed it. I guess it is academic now, given that tonyp will have the "2nd core special blend" of KM for next release. Thanks for the quick responses!

BTW, I don't recommend taking away superuser from KM, as it required a battery pull (my phone froze up solid the moment I dropped back to the home screen).
[LG Optimus 2x] Ajsh:

[LG Optimus 2x] ps1max:
I agree with you, but this users have to use search, its not tonyp duty to do anything since the stock camera works, not very good but works, and as tony said so many times this is his ROM and if the stock camera works for him, its our duty to flash the best for us. Sorry for my horrible English

2 questions please...

i am on build 22, i noticed that the minutes and the weather on the lock screen dissapears when i try to wake up the phone, from time time, and only Hour is visible, reboot usually helps... any clue whats causing minutes and weather dissapearing from the lock screen?

2nd q, if i flash build 23 over 22, will i lost my data and settings?
[LG Optimus 2x] Hejkompas:
My clock minutes also disappear sometimes until I reboot. It usually happens after around 40-50 hours uptime.

No, you are safe to flash and your stuff will stay put. It is always advised to create a nandroid before you flash, just in case.

In the latest changelog about GPU acceleration, tonyp says:

I did some reading about this as I always keep this option ticked. I think forcing GPU rendering makes the phone more smooth. Go to settings and start scrolling up and down. You'll probably notice a few hiccups while scrolling. Now try turning on GPU rendering, close settings and open them back up. Now start scrolling again, you'll see it working extremely smooth. So, I do think GPU rendering increases speed by straining the CPU less and using the GPU instead.

See for yourself. What works for others, doesn't necessarily work for you ;)

Hi, I've use Build 23 for 4 days. Honestly, build 23 have a great performance, long life battery and yeah this is the most stable Build! tonyp and pengus always did a great job! :good:

But I wanna ask something here, my phone get hot so fast, especially when I charge it even I don't use it when I charge it. Is that normal? :confused:
[LG Optimus 2x] echo_21:
"Hot" is relative. Please specify temperature preferably in degree Celsius (accuracy +/- 5°C is fine).
[LG Optimus 2x] sudden36:
AFAIR the overtemperature protection of our phone kicks in at ~50°C which can feel quite hot depending on the ambient temperature. My phone gets hot while downloading big amounts through 3G, maybe yours is updating apps while on the charger?

[LG Optimus 2x] breeno.net:
Yeah, I don't have the same behaviour. I notice a few very minor hiccups as parts of the settings list are scrolled into view for the first time. Then everything is smooth. The only way to get those first few hiccups back is the reboot the phone. I get one or two and then everything is good.

That said, I have a very light app load on my phone.

-Breeno

---------- Post added at 08:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:07 AM ----------

I don't know if it is normal, but I don't have that issue. The only time my phone gets really hot is when I stream audio over the mobile radio for long periods of time, which is essentially what [MENTION=5157704]sudden36[/MENTION] has described in his experiences.

But as for your comments about the build, same here. No lockups or app crashes since the update. Very, very impressive.

-Breeno
[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
Ah, don't we all love those placebos?

In build 23 I've enabled the standard gpu acceleration (which was partly disabled automatically due to our low ram) - so scrolling in the Settings menu is already gpu accelerated and enabling the force option has zero additional effect :rolleyes:

There's really no need for the option anymore, in contrary it can even cause problems.

In Android 4.1 the GPU acceleration has been enabled by default for all apps where applicable, and with build 23 our device will fully use it.

But if the hardware acceleration is causing problems in an app the app developer can manually set a flag to opt-out. Developers will only opt-out if their app is behaving weird when accelerated - and by enabling the force option you're forcing those apps into a state the developer disabled on purpose.

There's a reason it's hidden in the developer options - it is mainly intended for developers to test their own apps with hardware acceleration.

[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
build 24

And here's a new experimental build :good:

I've merged the new CM RC1 release, which brings quite some changes.

Most notably there is a new "always ask" option for App Ops.

You'll find it at Settings - Security - Privacy Guard (longpress an item for advanced options)

Example: You could use it for Facebook to "always ask" if you want to grant it permission to your location.

Then I've finally targeted the brightness slider bug recently reported here and added a couple safety checks to ensure it won't get displayed when you don't want it to.

In a first test it seems to work as intended, please post feedback if it is fixed for those of you who encountered problems.

Oh and for [MENTION=697830]trap[/MENTION]: Changelog: :D

fixed the brightnessslider to only show when enabled

merged CM10.2 RC1

ships with a customized KowalskiManager by [MENTION=3838586]wfd[/MENTION] which automatically enabled auto hotplug as well

Three more notes:

I recommend this KitKat theme, looks awesome in combination with TheROM:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.AJ.theme.kitkat

As soon as CM flags their CM10.2 codebase as stable there won't be many updates anymore as they're going to fully focus on CM11

This will probably decrease the amount of updates to this ROM.

If you guys want to see translations of TheROM features for your language included I'd suggest to sent me a proper (with validated xmls) pull request to my translation repo:

https://github.com/tonyp/TheROM-translations/

Then I've been looking up the data arrow issue, which is posted in the excellent Known Bugs list at post #5.

The CM bug from early CM10.2 builds is fixed, it should already work from the ROM code.

I assume it's a kernel problem, most likely the kernel is missing an equivalent to this commit:

https://android-review.googlesource.com/#/c/50842/

(at least I've found similiar bug reports at the Defy here, which got fixed by a kernel update here).

So we have to ask [MENTION=3783116]pengus77[/MENTION] if he's going to check this out and if applicable merges it in.
[LG Optimus 2x] breeno.net:
[MENTION=3605868]tonyp[/MENTION]: About that list, one of the "bugs" is a lack of TRIM support for the file system, eventually resulting in stuttered reads of /data. Have you considered porting the Linux userland fstrim utility? You could set it up to run daily, which would likely be sufficient for everything but the most intensive file system usage. As far as I know, trim commands can be run independently of the kernel, so long as the controller on the P990 supports the command.

Apologies if this has already been considered.

-Breeno

UPDATE: [MENTION=3605868]tonyp[/MENTION], I took apart the LagFix APK because I assumed they just compiled the Linux fstrim utility. My assumption paid off. I copied the file to /system/bin, corrected the permissions, and ran 'fstrim -v /data'. I got the error: 'FSTRIM: Operation not supported on transport endpoint". It seems that the P990 emmc controller does not support TRIM commands, period.

Hi Breeno,

Yeah, manual trim is not as optimal as kernel level trim, but it might be a good stopgap, seeing as Pengus77 wrote that over three months ago.

Thanks for the good exam vibes!

UPDATE: [MENTION=5399879]echo_21[/MENTION]: I answered my own question. Short answer, the P990 emmc controller does not support TRIM commands. I don't think Pengus77 will be able to do anything. Long answer, see update on this post. Oh, and as for the backup/wipe on /data, better performance would probably result if one were to do a secure erase using hdparm (if it has been ported to Android, don't know). Whether the extra speed is worth the trouble would be an individual preference.

Regarding "disappearing minutes and weather widget after some time on the lock screen"

Encountered that, but it is solved by some tinkering around with lock screen widget settings:

1. Either choose analogue clock and not a digital one

2. Or remove checkbox for Bold Hours

That solved it for me, and widget now shows properly

Also encountered Brightness slider on build 24, so not fully addressed I guess... but it has never been a problem

The theme suggested with build 24 post, why does it show as incompatible with my phone... Any one else facing this issue?

[MENTION=3605868]tonyp[/MENTION]: I also notice that /system/etc/init.d/95kowalski still has the "echo 1 > auto_hotplug_enable" line. It may be harmless at the moment, but you may want to remove it to avoid potential future regressive behaviour. No predicting where Pengus77's kernel development might go.

-Breeno
[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
This.

Seriously guys, the logcats rule for bug reports isn't optional.

You can use the syslog app to do so on the go, no need for a computer.

I will have to check what's been changed at the Gallery2 code, I've been testing the ICS Camera+ app recently which is working fine, so it isn't as bad as the early camera problems on CM10.2 which needed lots of hacks.

Thanks for investigating, I think the best workaround is the one mentioned in the known bugs list then.

It's a failsafe and there on purpose.

Some people accidently deny root to the kawalski manager or even disable/remove it. [MENTION=3783116]pengus77[/MENTION] promised a fix, but until then I'll keep it in.

Thanks, this is good to know, so the bug is in the app itself.
[LG Optimus 2x] echo_21:
There are many xda forum threads that are about a LagFix app. Would you like to provide a link of the apk you used?

Do you assume that the fstrim binary used by you controls the P990 emmc controller directly? I would expect that most fstrim binaries use kernel functions instead. In case a fstrim controlled the emmc controller directly, it would be very hardware specific. I wouldn't expect that the whole variety of different chips would be covered by one such fstrim binary.

I still would say "question mark" instead. :) . Once more I speculate (I have to, as I don't know much about P990 hw/sw structure): I guess that the P990 kernel KK M1 lacks the functions that are required by the fstrim used by you. Therfore it complains "Operation not supported on transport endpoint". Do you have more in-depth knowledge you like to share?

No time, this will be my last check of the forum for weeks and I barely have time to post this quick reply. Start at Wikipedia and you should be able to quickly bring yourself up to speed on the workings of TRIM.

In short, it is a standard ATA command, so no, it does not need kernel support. It does need controller support otherwise the controller rejects the ATA command, no matter what the source. Userland utilities for TRIM-unaware Windows and Linux versions have existed for nearly as long as TRIM.

AFAIK the flash chip in the P990 does not use ATA commands, but the eMMC interface and i don't know if there is also a standardized command for TRIM. Most probably TRIM needs some sort of kernel support on our phone.

Reference: issue #8 in Known Issues List

Hi pengus77, Breeno plausibly worked out by experiments that the SSD controller in the P990 does not support ATA commands required for TRIM support (see below and his post ). Thus, TRIM on P990 seems to be impossible at all.

sudden36 (see below) confirms that P990 SSD controller does not provide ATA commands required for TRIM. I understand his sentence " ... but the eMMC interface (does) ..." that there could be a software layer that emulates ATA commands required for TRIM. Unfortunaly she/he hasn't provided any references.

Edit: In the meantime @sudden36 (thanks a lot!) provided this link . Now, it seems to me that native ATA support is not mandatory for TRIM. I think the kernel in principle e.g. could emulate ATA support by making use of the SD/MMC command ERASE (CMD38). Then fstrim as used by Breeno should work. Alternatively the P990 kernel could implement the TRIM functionality itself (using CMD38).

@pengus77, have you come to any more precise conclusion so far? (of cause, not asking for ETA)

Hi Breeno, thanks a lot. I think, no more of your time is needed as things puzzled together for me now. (Off-topic) From reading your posts I see that you work very analytically. Thus, I do not have any doubt that you will pass your exam with great success. (/Off-topic)

(Off-topic) I am getting old: 1. I forgot to consider the possibility that TRIM could be standardized as an ATA standard command. 2. I already read that Wikipedia article a while ago and forgot that TRIM support is standardized by ATA commands. (/Off-topic)

Thanks, sudden36 for your contribution. I try to assemble things together in this post. Would you like to provide any references for your statement " ... but the eMMC interface (does) ..."?

[LG Optimus 2x] sev3n1985:
If our phone doens't support TRIM commands we don't need to implement it because could slow down performances.

To see if enabled in CM10.2 launch this command

adb logcat -d | grep -i fstrim

In next days i will try to use LagFix that seems to improve performance, after some tests i will post some screenshots

If anyone wants to know what is and how could improve performances i suggest to read those posts on XDA

Thank you for questioning my post, turns out I was wrong about eMMC according to this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trim_(computing)#SD.2FMMC eMMC supports some sort of TRIM :) then I think it should also work for the P990.
