Yes, the problem happens on those that have the "older" firmware. Unfortunately I cannot find the fw image to make it autoinstallable when booting this ROM.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] insignia666:
[MENTION=4223446]Blefish[/MENTION] I have tested the previous version and had the same problems..most probably it lags when i drag down the notification bar and and swipe left and right in the menu screen.

new milestone

hello [MENTION=4223446]Blefish[/MENTION] . Ive just seen this :D . It says milestone 3 is out and have no major bugs. Can it fix the incall volume and echo problems :D ?

https://www.xda-developers.com/andr...gn=Feed:+xda-developers/ShsH+(xda-developers)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
Noise suppression is now back (I guess they did it for m3). I am currently inspecting incall volume though, I believe it's Audio HAL problem.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] selson:
Great work! Really appreciate FM radio, compass still spinning like crazy though.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dancer_69:
I don't remember because passed a lot time, but I have the image. I think there was a special menu in 2.3 official rom which flash this update. Anyway I have the img, so maybe Blefish can do something about it.

One problem with synaptics screen is that when i test it with touchscreen tester it shows me that it jumps 10 pixels with one slow movement. It should be 1 pixel. Then it would be smooth. I can upload a video later.

Btw. Atm i dont see any screen lag when im using latest release with dalvik vm. Have not yet tried it with art.

I can test that later on.

[MENTION=4223446]Blefish[/MENTION] I have experienced a 2nd random reboot today (no reboots on previous releases). I was doing nothing on the phone, so it was in sleep when suddenly it restarted. I tried to get crashlog but nothing useful in it (old data). I have no additional apps installed.

After the reboot, SD card was not available to the phone until I've restarted the phone again, then the SD card appeared.

Are you installing this ROM for the first time? You can't connect to all routers or only ZON Hub?

Just updated the ROM yesterday and wifi is working as was before, please see my post here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=49662067&postcount=95

With CM11 you can't do nothing by changing wpa_supplicant
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] AceDroidX:
On some wifi there is a setting about the bandwidth usually its set to auto (20/40). No matter the encryption i can only connect to my WiFi when it's set to 20. Maybe that's why some people have problems with specific routers?

thnx for the link...will the drivers be updated after i downgrade to 2.3 and then install cm 11???

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] ochentay4:
Hi, I want to thanks everyone here on this thread for being helpful.

First of all, I feel obligated to WARN everyone who has a Synaptics update to be carefull to try this rom until Synaptics TS issue is fixed.

Blefish: I can assure 100% this rom made something wrong to my Synaptics TS rom. After opening my phone and finding out that I had Synaptics TS and not Atmel TS, and it was correctly connected, some user posted about a synaptics.img (U8800+SynapticsTouchscreenFirmware_20111228). I googled it and I can confirm that after flashing it with Recovery on official 2.3 my TS is alive again. Thanks god I got my phone back.

Im in no way blaming Blefish, in fact, I thanks him for trying to port KitKat 4.4 to our phones and I hope we get this bugs (specially this one) ironed out. How can I help to resolve Synaptics issue?

Phew, bullet dodged...
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dancer_69:
I suggest to wait for Blefish' s respond. Maybe he can find a way to install it without the need to flash the official rom.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] insignia666:
ok thanks bro for the reply...!!

---------- Post added at 09:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:29 PM ----------

good to hear that your problem resolved..:)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
Try recalibrating the magnetic sensor using the IDEOSX5Settings app.

Thanks. I will try incorporating it to the ROM.

I think I was not clear on the first reply. I actually meant that the odds of a hardware problem is very small. It seems very likely that it happened due to the faulty driver. Though, I can see zero ways of this happening. By the way, is the lag problem solved?

I'm glad the problem is solved for you. I will open up my phone during the weekend and see if I can make it work. Also, there are quite a few updates to the Synaptics driver that may be needed for better feedback. I feel the irony because at first, Atmel had no support at all and now it's becoming vice-versa.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] selson:
Using IDEOSX5Settings didn't help. GPS Status app still spinning, other compass apps don't work either (wrong direction, slow reaction).
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] zazza8:
This might be related to the unstable battery level.

I didn't notice that the battery level was low so the phone shutdown by itself. I tried to boot but it just blinked red light so the battery level was too low to boot. So I took the battery out and inserted the charger (800mA) and my phone booted, then during the boot I inserted the battery. Now it shows that it's charging but the battery level is stuck at 0%.

I also tried to boot the phone with just the charger and put the battery in after the boot but same thing happens, battery level is stuck. The phone is also in airplane mode just to lower the power usage.

I had the same problem once in the previous update but it started to charge after some tries with the same tactic as now. So the phone is currently stuck at 0%, what should I do to get it to charge? I have my old battery which works ok but doesn't last very long if I can't get it working.

Would you like to get some logs?

EDIT: Now I got it to charge. I let it to be in recovery (TWRP) for about 10 minutes with battery and charger inserted and then it started to charge in the recovery. It charged there for some time and then I booted to system and now it charges normally.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] ggunzio:
Turn the phone off. Insert the battery and plug the USB. It should boot into recovery. In recovery, reboot system and your phone should now reboot into ROM, and the battery should charge like always. What happened to you, happens to me every time i put the battery with phone turned on and connected to the charger.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] bdgraue:
same here, cant get it to work properly. is there anything else we can try?

other things i noticed(09.02.2014 version)

sometimes very slow and phone heats up in the lower back(cpu is set to 1024MHz max and ondemand)

bluetooth tethering unstable, often breaks after a few minutes, sometimes shows connected, but no internet at all(tested with n7 tablet)

i use the room daily and very happy so far :cool: :good:
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] hobarr:
Wi-fi not connected 20-40Mhz mode. I setup router 20Mhz it is connected.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Fatsodonkey:
Blefish is it possible to mke the battery percentage to show 100 all the time so i could have the maximum amount of battery. If it would be just a flashable zip it would be the best temporary option for it.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] bdgraue:
while gps status and toolbox seems to have problems with compass, other apps, like ingress, seem to work korrekt with it. if i try to calibrate it in gps status and toolbox, the app randomly closes with error.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] zazza8:
I was able to boot to system but it didn't start to charge normally. I got the battery working by charging in the recovery.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] selson:
sorry, which other app besides ingress (don't want to install)? gps essentials, smart tools, kompass pro, marine compass etc. not working here.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] bdgraue:
not working is the compass in GPS Status and Toolbox.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] selson:
yes, i know and afaik no app can use compass. you said ingress app works but i don't want to install it. so maybe there is another app that works..?

i have to say battery life is great (3,5h screen on compared to 2,5h earlier)!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] nayneshdev:
+1

Moreover I have random reboots while using USB tethering.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] bassdrum01:
So when i was in a +18 :P website skipping videos, the phone rebooted often, now i discovered if i tap the back button 2 or 3 times (fast) to exit the video it won't reboot.

But now it happens, that i can only see a few videos before it don't want to play them anymore. Every single video, YouTube in the browser (Maxton), YouTube app, etc...

It happened to me before in Dzo Aurora, the trick was to put the phone in aeroplane mode, and it work again. Now only if i reboot the phone.

What should be the problem? [MENTION=4223446]Blefish[/MENTION]

Good work cheers

Well done bluefish for 4.4.2

I decided to fix my phone's broken usb and in the process i removed the +5v trace from the connector i remember i had seen an article somewhere on the net, telling you where from where to power this thing on if a trace has been cut down, does anyone have the link??

Thanks in advance

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] cizkek_:
some feedback

Hello. I have recently opened a thread in a Turkish forum to help testing and make your great ROM available to more X5 users by translating. I am really sorry, i should have asked permission for this but i forgot to do so. I've made references and put links to inform people.

So far, we have noticed these:

- Screen recording has some kind of glitches. Changing "Force GPU rendering" didn't

help. I used adb to record. http://youtu.be/3aCk__Fs_2w

- Alarm clock sometimes not working, only displaying a notification.

- Battery problem still exists but some said that its better than last version in terms of performance (still unstable battery meter... 14 hours of daily usage, 3g and 2g internet browsing and gaming).

- In call volume problem, changing sound level helps temporarily.

- No handsfree mode.

- After connecting phone to an external speaker or a cars sound system and listening some music, disconnecting phone then reconnecting it makes phone "silent" . Phone doesn't sound,produce a sound, i mean... You cant hear a sound even from phones speaker. Rebooting the phone fixes this. Phone is connected with 3.5mm cable.

- Some minor display glitches. For example, opening a new tab in "boat browser" makes new tab button and link box go black.

Note: I couldn't test the echo and microphone problem i mentioned before, i will give feed back as soon as i make some calls and test it.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] cizkek_:
If you are talking about apps like "Spotflux" or "Orbot", it supports. I am using Orbot and it connects pretty well. Only in first launches, you need to be patient and try to disconnect and reconnect few times.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] zazza8:
I have noticed few bugs in the latest release.

This is a small bug and might be made by the cm team. When the time has four numbers (XX.XX) the quick settings panel button is out of place, too much to the right (See the screenshots).

I have also noticed that sometimes when I try to turn wifi on from the quick settings panel it doesn't turn on at all.

I think it has always happened after a night, it has been on before the night then I have turned it off and in the morning I have tried to turn it on many times but it doesn't work at all. If I go to the settings and turn it on from there the on/off switch just goes to disabled state and nothing happens. If I then go out of the settings and come back the switch says that the wifi is off. I have had to reboot to fix the problem.

Sorry I don't have a logcat of this bug, I will take it next time this happens.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Cybergiannis:
i believe it's great that we can have kitkat to our phone!!! i really want to test that rom but most of the day i'm not at home so i cannot run out of battery! i'll just wait for a better battery perfomance and i'll flash it right away! Also i'd like to ask if viber calling works with this rom or not cause really a lot of roms for u8800 have this problem!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] cizkek_:
glitches

Hello again :D. About visual glitches I've mentioned before, this is how it looks like: http://img.donanimhaber.com/upfiles/1120136/0627e7d4-5d47-4f51-9fd8-709beaf6cbfc.png

I've experienced the same in apex launcher, it usually happens switching from in-app camera or similar. All icons and texts are gone, only the shadow of them remains. Since i don't experience this often, i didn't think i should report it until now. If i can reproduce it, ill take screenshots and try to record it in adb. Thanks :D

Edit: I didn't experienced the little XX.XX bug but rarely WiFi malfunctions, buttons in notification panels doesn't work, in settings after flipping the switch to "on" it stucks at "turn WiFi on to see available networks" part.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] pipoawas:
Sometimes when clicking the battery stats, it takes forever to show the consumption graph. It may be related with the buggy battery driver.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] omernaeem17:
using this rom it does not connect to my Wifi Router (Linksys WRT54G2), even when I set authentication to Open (unsecure). Although on changing wireless mode from "G only" to "Mixed" it works, even with WPA2.

Also tested by making hotspot using my laptops wifi, and it didn't work either. (Tested the wifi hotspot on another phone and it worked seemlessly).

Seems like WIFI is somewhat bugged.

Also is there any way to get Tap2Wake feature on this phone ?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] skyseel:
Goodbye everyone, been a nice ride on this forum, now I'm moving to Nexus 5 forum as a new Nexus 5 owner :) Keep up the good work [MENTION=4223446]Blefish[/MENTION]!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] JoseRebelo:
Android has some problems connecting to ad-hoc networks, I haven't tried on this rom yet, but it should be fixable.

I've been meaning to ask for that feature for some time, but so far it wasn't a priority with all the bugs. I'm also wondering if it would be possible to add sweep2wake / tap2wake / sweep2sleep. Some of us have the power button completely broken and this would be a nice addition :D
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] rimsilva:
Those are nice features indeed, but you can avoid the use of the power button already, using volume buttons to wake and replace search button to Power off the screen.

I've already "replaced" my power button like this a long time ago.....
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] djemr:
Am I the only one having screen freezes. It is nearly imposible to respond a call. The screen is all black. And when I am able to turn the screen on, if I try to call someone the screen goes black and does not come back. It has to be a problem with a proxy sensor. Even if I try to wake the phone up the screen stucks at black but soft keys lights up. Doesn't change anything if I set the volume rocker, still stucks on black screen and needs at least couple of tries. Furthermore the speakers does not function during a call.

Any help regarding the above is highly appreciated.

By the way I dont have the radio app, where the hack is it?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
Weird. GPS Status & Toolbox is bugged, while Elixir 2 & Compass 3D work well. Maybe some apps are not setting some parameters, I will debug.

I have nothing to say about phone heating up, it seems to happen with high CPU usage.

I did not test tethering long enough, but the new driver may still have bugs. Can anyone tell me if changing BT power actually has better range?

It would be possible, but is it worth it?

Using Windows? Maybe the drivers are messed up. It seems to work rather well in Ubuntu.

I fixed mine using this as the tutorial (this is for I/O data lines). http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/f81...-not-recognize-pc-done-simple-jumper-1530239/ (open image in new tab to see).

The +5V, I/O (2) & ground are all on the test pins. The full layout is somewhere in the XDA, but I can't find it right now (I participated in the thread though).

No problems with sharing this ROM, after all, the source is out there for public use.

Screen recording seems to have the R layer offset, is fixable but I don't have any idea how right now.

Audio routing should be fixed. I noticed that speaker in calling is working, but it's very quiet.

Some glitches like black box around some icons I have seen myself too, caused by GPU drivers. Only way around them is to use different drivers which might be possible (Galaxy S3 has Adreno225, which drivers we are currently using).

You could report the bug to the CM team (they have a bugtracker I think).

More wifi problems, great. The current driver needs to be flushed down the toilet.

This seems to happen on low memory conditions. I haven't seen it myself a long time. Similar to how in Aurora the text gets corrupted.

Might just load someting in the background, I'm not sure the battery driver in the kernel could cause this.

I've thought about it, and I might add it. The problem is, I think it needs firmware support & both touch screens would have to be added manually. On Atmel it's also possible to add "glove" mode, which would be useful for some (aka using touch screen through small gloves).

I think you don't have the latest version installed. Otherwise the FM radio should be there. You can check the version in Settings->About.

New release coming up soon, with some bugfixes. No fixes for Wi-Fi yet (although I am working on it). What some could try is altering the /system/etc/firmware/wlan/qcom_cfg.ini . There are a lot of variables, which in some way alter the Wi-Fi behavior.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] pipoawas:
Sorry Blefish, I just realised that I said that having still the previous version installed, not the current one. Maybe you should disregard it then. And thanks for answering it.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] bassdrum01:
I change the browser, I'm now using Dolphin browser, and it doesn't happen any more.

I hope you improve sound quality in call and in media as well. And video playback quality. Some how it doesn't match yet to Dzo aurora rom.

Keep the good work [MENTION=4223446]Blefish[/MENTION] cheers
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] JoseRebelo:
Yes, that glove mode was once accidentally enabled in Aurora and it was awesome, pretty useful now in the winter :p

Yeah, so did I. Volume buttons to wake up and search button to sleep. But it would be awesome to have that. I've been poking around and found these commits to the nexus 7: https://github.com/apascual89/flo_nexus7/commit/6e8d7b2624c171139a9a51b6b0f0b0650c026eae

Not sure if they are useful. Also, once found ones to an Atmel screen, but I don't have the link here right now.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] selson:
For me Elixir 2 & Compass 3D act just like the other apps. Somehow all apps avoid N and E directions...

Someone with Synaptics could give me the "dmesg" log after booting up. This way I can move the virtual key position to the right place (as it is currently a bit off).

how to get the dmesg log ?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] RajuMon:
Thanks...........

Please add wifi-tethering
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
Can you give me logcat after this happens? Or you can link me the app so I can check it out myself.

The log is only available after booting up (as it gets overwritten sooner or later).

If you have ADB already enabled, do this:

adb root

adb shell dmesg

I know that some apps allow dmesg logs too. With Elixir 2 you can just browse it. I need the line where it says Synaptics rmi4 max X/Y (or similar).

I'd love to, but since the Wi-Fi driver has so many issues, I need to work on it a lil. It will come eventually.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] snake_boss:
Hi there blefish!

2 questions before (maybe try this out for the first time)

Is this version stable enough for everyday use?

It's possible to override the mac address in the terminal? (I need to do it 'cause I lost my MAC address somewhere in the past an now i can only use rom's who are able to do it - Aurora have this option)

Congratz for the work!

Regards
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
I've been using this ROM (and the previous cm-10.1) for nearly six months now. It works well for my device, but there are problems for some phones. I'd say it's up to you to find out.

It is possible to override the MAC address. With ADB/Terminal Emulator "setprop persist.wifi.mac 00:11:22:33:44:55". I will probably add this to the IDEOS X5 Settings aswell for the next release, so people would not have to mess with this. BT address is similar, but it's in a file /data/misc/bluedroid/bdaddr . You may need to restart for the changes to take effect.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] snake_boss:
Thanks I will give it a try now!

The option to change the mac without the terminal emulator and the command line would be amazing. (as I need to do it every time I install a fresh rom!)

Thanks for lightning fast reply! ;)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] chaokai123:
Well here is the log（hopefully it is the really log）
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] pipoawas:
Since by installing this new version we don't have to wipe anything, our apps will remain installed and with their respective data, right?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
Yes, this is the correct log. Thanks!

No, wiping is only recommended when coming from a different ROM.

When you install a new version, your apps will regenerate the cache files. Hence, booting takes a while longer after flashing new version.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] RajuMon:
Its stable and one and half day battery backup for me
