yo, my guess is that they left the (use dark theme) setting in but like you've mentioned it is not functional; just like it never did on cm11. Probably better leaving it unchecked and theme it separately.

Just dove into the 2/22/15 nightly to test messaging. FC any time starting to compose message even with just ROM, TiBU & CatLog and no Gapps or other stuff. Not sure if it is worth Jira ticket.

Jira: https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/NIGHTLIES-739

Hmmm: maybe this upcoming commit is a fix for it: http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/89495/
[Motorola Atrix HD] IronTechmonkey:
Gave 2/23/15 MB886 nightly a quick test install. Messaging no longer FCs on message compose. As to testing and reporting in general:

Under a rule that a Jira ticket must reference a last known good within branch, the ticket for Messaging FC was closed as being invalid because the last known good was CM11. This leaves no procedurally acceptable way to report bugs that have occurred in each of the few versions of a new item (CM12 for MB886) when the last know good was CM11.

That said... the response to the ticket also described that there were so many things to fix in the codebase anyhow that the individual bug reports don't help much at present. Understandable.

Case in point: About an hour before the 2/23/15 MB886 nightly dropped there were less than ten pending commits. By the time that nightly dropped there were nearly 50 commits, one or 2 of which were the fix to the Messaging FC. Also, a review of commits shows that in addition to squashing bugs, some of the popular features that CM baked into CM11 are being introduced to CM12.

Nightlies are really nightlies again and things are moving fast.
[Motorola Atrix HD] ssuds:
Yep, if you had seen the unofficial nightlies thread I had been putting out before we went official, it has been like that for a while. And in general, yeah they know that there's a lot of stuff broken so they aren't really heeding bug reports ATM - they already know that a ton of stuff is broken so they'll fix the obvious stuff they see before moving on to less critical stuff. Example: the libomx video stuff that has now been resolved
[Motorola Atrix HD] IronTechmonkey:
I was watching it all ;)
[Motorola Atrix HD] chrisb906:
how is the messaging bug coming? i really love this rom. love all the options and setting that come along with it.. plz keep us posted
[Motorola Atrix HD] IronTechmonkey:
If you are talking about the one in official CM12 MB886 reported some days ago where it crashed upon compose message; that has indeed been fixed but...the pace of Dev is very rapid and there are probably going to be more ups and downs as things get fixed and tweaked.
[Motorola Atrix HD] kabaldan:
[MENTION=4736784]ssuds[/MENTION] or others:

(Btw., we're still missing a real mb886 device CM maintainer)

There's one, still so far unresolved Atrix HD issue - https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/CYAN-5393

The question is whether mb886 should use the CAPLESS mic config (as xt92x) or not.

The stock firmware by Motorola indicates that mb886 should use the same CAP mic config as xt907, xt897, xt905, xt902 etc.

But Eruditass's findings suggest that xt925/xt926 CAPLESS mic config should actually be used by mb886.

I need a confirmation from other users before I can merge http://review.cyanogenmod.org/90196 .

Please post (to some file hosting service) a short camcorder recording of a silent ambient environment from mb886 when using the CAP config (standard build) and another one when using the CAPLESS config (with http://review.cyanogenmod.org/90196 merged) for a comparison.

Thanks in advance.
[Motorola Atrix HD] ssuds:
Sure thing [MENTION=2218140]kabaldan[/MENTION]. I'm currently building with that commit cherry picked, and I'll throw it up here when it's done. I'm a bit busy tonight so hopefully someone can flash and post those videos, otherwise hopefully I can get to it tomorrow.

As far as somebody being the "real" mb886 maintainer, I'm definitely still open to it. I was talking to dhacker a while back when I put out my first builds and he was planning on getting me set up as the maintainer, but I haven't heard from him in a while. While I don't have the level of kernel development knowledge and stuff that all you guys have, I can build and I do own an mb886, and I'm definitely open to learn as I go if you think I'm up to the task.
[Motorola Atrix HD] [] AL []:
Go for it [MENTION=4736784]ssuds[/MENTION] !!

The idea crossed my mind a well... as you said, it's a nice chance to learn a few tricks from the best. But I still have to set up a build environment and I have hardware investments to do (4 years old OS SSD is now the weakest link of my rig -sic- and has only 15GB free.. ) and I have also very little time to spend on this so I'd rather skip this for now.

In regards to the hiss and those configuration settings; I've tried that before (only two recordings each way) and couldn't clearly hear a difference. But I was told at the time which frequency range to look (hear) for

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=55585905&postcount=502

(and the 2 screenshots given at the time showing spectrum comparison between stock and CM attached)

which still didn't really help on spotting anything.

So short answer is that I have none and I'd have to repeat all this again.

There's no real need to cherry pick and do a test build here I believe; I could make a flashable (and undo) zip for it and share it here later if others would like to do the tests.

EDIT:

I've just found the zips I made at that time : http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=55576547&postcount=497

Here's a screenshot showing what is the zip changing - hopefully unchanged test params since then.

Cheers

/A
[Motorola Atrix HD] ssuds:
Thanks []AL[]! I didn't even think to do a flashable zip.

However, It looks like [MENTION=2218140]kabaldan[/MENTION] 's commit has changes on the EnableSequence and leaves the DisableSequence untouched, see below:

Not sure if there's a reason for this or if he just forgot to change the values on the disable.

My build with the commit merged should be ready shortly also, so anyone who's willing can give that a go.
[Motorola Atrix HD] [] AL []:
Good catch! which I can't really answer.

Anyhow, zip is also easy to mod for those disabling sequence params (just change the 2 ones for zeros and re-sign). And this is just general comment not just directed to you (as you know all that for sure) It's just that I find a little more convenient to flash zips instead of complete/newer rom... Especially coming from an older nightly build which would require nand backup, test 1, flash your build/test2 and possibly restore (do not just flash old nightly over).
[Motorola Atrix HD] ssuds:
Alright, the build finished compiling. I've uploaded it to http://d-h.st/NJQO

If someone is able to test this out that would be awesome.

Instructions to test:

-Flash 3/1 or older CM12 official nightly

-Record a video in a quiet environment

-Flash my test build linked above, EDIT: or just use flashable zip in post 775 instead of flashing a new rom(dirty flash should be fine, there are minimal changes. But if you want to be completely scientific do a full wipe)

-Record a video in the same environment

-Upload both video files for analysis

-Bonus: Flash [MENTION=3703649][] AL [][/MENTION] 's zip in post 771 and record a video with this, too.

-Logcats of both setups would be nice but probably not necessary
[Motorola Atrix HD] ssuds:
Definitely agree, zip is always easier. I figured I'd make a new build with the commit to be all scientific about it, but considering this change is so minimal a zip is probably plenty fine. I just made a zip with the new file from the commit, this should still be able to be reverted with [MENTION=3703649][] AL [][/MENTION]'s revert zip in post 771. Download from below link.

http://d-h.st/JVVC
[Motorola Atrix HD] IronTechmonkey:
And that's what test pilots who don't know jack about programming are for (whole ROM flashing) :). Will have a comparison of 3/1 nightly and Capless test build shortly.

[EDIT]

Video clips and logs in a zip (regular old not flashable zip). I can't hear a difference and also may not be in the best place to test sound. The clicks are from the case when i moved the phone.

http://www.filedropper.com/soundtest
[Motorola Atrix HD] ssuds:
This is awesome, thank you!!

If you get a chance, could you also flash the zip in [] AL []'s post over whatever CM12 rom you have right now? That is a third slightly different configuration, and might prove to have different results.

Alright, tried to be an audio ninja with the files [MENTION=5119654]IronTechmonkey[/MENTION] uploaded...

-Extracted audio using VLC to .wav files

-Opened up both in audacity to compare

-Amplified both by 40db so I could actually see waveforms

-Zoomed in a little, can't really see much difference:

-Zoomed in some more, looks like the amplitude from the capless build is slightly lower?:

Is there a more scientific way to compare noise? And as I said before, not sure of the reasoning for whether or not the capless value needs to be toggled on the disable sequence.

Here's the audacity file I'm playing with:http://d-h.st/o1uK
[Motorola Atrix HD] IronTechmonkey:
D'oh! I meant to test [] AL []'s files but forgot. It's the wee hours of the morning here but after some rest I can test those. The lower amplitude for capless build was most likely environmental - while testing I thought it was marginally more quiet during that test.

BTW [MENTION=3703649][] AL [][/MENTION], some philosophy of transparency vs background images in themes coming soon (! tested that theme briefly):).
[Motorola Atrix HD] ssuds:
Haha it's wee hours of the morning here too, but I was having trouble sleeping so figured I'd try it out myself.

Al's patch (capless on enable and disable): http://d-h.st/4Sgv

Untouched Nightly: http://d-h.st/qE6S

To me it sounds like the nightly has a high pitched tone that is eliminated with capless config. But could just be the placebo effect. Anyway, I'm going to bed now, lol.
[Motorola Atrix HD] Justatechie:
I hear the hiss in both videos.

As for sudds I actually dont hear the hiss on als patch, its definitely not placebo.

how do you guys download files from dev-host this has become the worst phone-friendly file hosting site ever. Ads, redirections, forced downloads and what not... No wonders everyone was b'ching at them on another thread and everyone was switching to Android File Host...

Most I could get is a useless file called nightly.mp4.dmg.

Anyhow, sorry to not participate in the testing; didn't have a minute for my self since my last post and won't have much quiet environment to do so over the last few hours of today...
[Motorola Atrix HD] palmbeach05:
That was quite an entertaining post. Obviously you know your stuff, so i won't ask about download vs download now. I am curious what browser you are using when you encounter these issues
[Motorola Atrix HD] kabaldan:
OK, thanks for the tests.

Atrix HD indeed seems to need the capless mic bias switch enabled, as there's clearly a parasitic frequency around 13.5 kHz when it's off.

The height of the tone explains why not everyone can hear it.

I'm still puzzled why the stock Motorola firmware for Atrix HD does not enable it, though.

One trouble with the test here is that the cm-12-20150302-CAPLESS_TEST-mb886.zip by [MENTION=4736784]ssuds[/MENTION] contains the unaltered snd_soc_msm_2x - it's the same as in previous nightlies so there's no surprise that the samples posted by [MENTION=5119654]IronTechmonkey[/MENTION] are both with the same 13.5kHz hiss. (I don't blame ssuds, maybe it's caused by the inheritance from msm8960_jbbl-common and my commit is flawed, I'll check it.)

Frequency analysis of 'Al's patch' sample vs. 'Untouched Nightly' sample is quite clear, though.

And no, it's not about the DisableSequence difference. It's a disable sequence after all. It goes like: start recording (user action)>EnableSequence>mics are used...>stop recording (user action)>DisableSequence>mics are not used any more...
[Motorola Atrix HD] IronTechmonkey:
Indeed, site is spammy with a lot of activity that sets off PUP detection, it offered false links to a 1MB exe file bearing part of the name of the intended download file and other stuff that would have me ban the site from a network ;). That said, although I was not able to download it in my script blocked and cookie restricted Pale Moon browser I was able to download it in my unsecured browser (IE) after disabling PUP detection. Very disturbing to see the site deliver files with partial name of the target and extensions that make them look like different file types - in your case .DMG, in my case .EXE.

[EDIT] BTW No implied criticism of ssuds for using that hosting site. Such is the nature of free hosting.

---------- Post added at 02:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:53 PM ----------

My testing scenario is not optimal (to understate), so consider that the environment might (or might not) be causing the hiss there. Also, since this is occurring near the limit of human detection of high frequency sound I might not be noticing it as much as others. Not surprised to hear that [] AL []'s files made a difference... as was the case when he first shared them.
[Motorola Atrix HD] ssuds:
Hmm, that's strange. I double checked my source and the variables have been changed in my mb886 directory. So it might be a jbbl-common dependency like you said. I should have verified the zip before I uploaded it, that's my bad. I guess if someone really wanted to test your commit code, the flashable zip that I posted should be correct at least. But from what you explained about the DisableSequence, looks like that would be unnecessary to test.

Really weird that Motorola doesn't enable this in the stock firmware though...

Gotcha, that makes complete sense. I've dealt with some stuff that needed to callout the exact state to turn it of (ie enable(1) and disable(1) =! enable(1) and disable(0) ), but I guess the way this code is structured that would not be the case.

---------- Post added at 01:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:39 PM ----------

That's really bad to hear, I didn't realize Dev-Host was so uncooperative. I'll switch up my hosting going forward.
[Motorola Atrix HD] IronTechmonkey:
LOL, as I was adding to my previous post as you were writing this "[EDIT] BTW No implied criticism of ssuds for using that hosting site. Such is the nature of free hosting." (although there may be better ones). Glad for the material to test with.:good:
[Motorola Atrix HD] IronTechmonkey:
Although we've established that the hiss exists, do we need any more sample videos/logs for it?

[EDIT] I don't think we've gotten data for a 3/1 or < nightly vs same with kabaldan's code. I don't know how to merge that prospective commit into the ROM for a test but if it were in a flashable zip or whole ROM I could use that to get videos and logs.
[Motorola Atrix HD] ssuds:
Like [MENTION=2218140]kabaldan[/MENTION] said, looks like the commit didn't get merged into that build i made for some reason. If you do want to test the actual commit code, the flashable zip in post 775 can be flashed over any cm12 nightly and should work. From what he explained about the disable sequence stuff, I don't think further samples are required at the moment, but if you want to add more data to the pool for further confirmation that would be the zip to use.
[Motorola Atrix HD] [] AL []:
Well, I'd just say that I had more entertaining download experiences than with D-H...

I've tried both Download and Download Now with both Lightning and Dolphin browsers (and with also both Android and Desktop user agent) and still no luck. Worst, I've tried again today and captured a little clip to show how bad their redirections are. And just as IronTechMonkey mentioned, this is (or was) in no way complain about ssuds but just venting on how D-H changed...

So here is the clip please don't mind the choppiness and weird look (lowered bitrate and inverted rendering in Lightning browser), but notice how many times the address changes (this is not the address crawling; each time it changes is a new address called) before finally loading a page. And for the record, the download button is useless because it does a quick redirection than reload the exact same page (as the short link).

So as I said, AFH is MUCH better now IMHO.

Cheers
[Motorola Atrix HD] bmatney:
If I long press the good one, I can't remember which one it is right now, then open it in a new tab, the download will work and it will automatically close the new tab too.
[Motorola Atrix HD] ssuds:
I'm pretty sure download now is the correct one. I have an adblocker installed and it automatically blocks the orange download button.
[Motorola Atrix HD] [] AL []:
Ok, my last reply on this (really) off-topic discussion (which I've initiated - sorry) but yes, that's what I used to do to start downloads and it worked in the past.

But now, long pressing + open in new tab the download button just opens a new tab and (eventually) brings you to a crappy add-on download page (see 2 ss both taken with Dolphin). Read what's in the box and see how it is almost impossible to even read on one of them... Pitiful really; this should not exit on the Internet.. worst than email spam imho...

And as mentioned earlier, long-press + open in new tab of the Download Now just opens a new tab with the exact same page.

So no go from d-h for and from me anymore.

[Motorola Atrix HD] IronTechmonkey:
According to Jira ticket the commit has been merged so at this point this can be tested in upcoming nightly.
[Motorola Atrix HD] ssuds:
Yep, I saw that. There was also a dependencies tweak on jbbl-common source to build this on a device specific basis.
[Motorola Atrix HD] [] AL []:
Dang,

We've discussed that earlier but I just thought I'd share this anyway....

I've just figured out how to "solve" a glitch I had for the longest time with MXPlayer. I've had problems with it where it would just stop working for some reason under no real discernable moment (every other use; maybe a couple days; maybe twice a day). I would press play, see the spinner and screen rotate but the get a black (or only left side half-pic) screen and it would sometimes even get the phone irresponsive to screen inputs for a while. I've tried many different versions of the app, and the issue kept coming... First, I used to uninstal and restore the app+data with TB with more or less success: this would sometimes take 2 attempts to work. Then I realized that just restoring data worked just as 'well'.

But yesterday, I've realized that simply closing the app, switching the lockscreen auto-lock powerwidget ON and turning the screen off/on+unlock does the trick each time.

Last week, I've also had the same thing happened in another situation that I can't recall atm. Maybe my vpn that wouldn't conect w/o an unlock, maybe something else.

But anyhow, I really wonder what is triggering this exactly. I mean, why are there -what seems to be- unrelated trigers (2 above and the other one previously reported regarding the disappearing options on power menu until screen unlock) that require a screen unlock to resolve them?

* all this regarding CM11 btw.
[Motorola Atrix HD] IronTechmonkey:
I use MX player and repeatedly restore the app and data with TiBU Pro, and have never had an issue like that however... this is the second issue you've reported recently that seems to involve lock screen widgets. I've not experienced either of them and for what is it worth, it so happens that I don't use lock screen widgets and only use the lock screen occasionaly (with clock only - no weather, no calendar and no PM indicator). Also, for what this even looser connection is worth: Around when CM added option to center status bar clock there were instances of disappearing status bar clock and activating lock screen would restore the clock (as would force closing systemui). At the time Arrrghhh described the problem as messiness in the framework. Not much but the closest thing I could come up with.
