I'll bake something soon.

Since the previous Synaptics driver worked better, I will use it, with one change that could fix the lockups for some people. Though, there was an unusual case with one phone where the firmware got corrupted, I have absolutely no ideas about why that happened, as the driver sends no such commands.

It seems to me like the battery capacity gets bad after long uptime, so I am currently looking for some solutions to fix my own driver.

The symlink is added too, someone reported they couldn't restore IMEI backups so I fixed it a couple of weeks ago.

Here's a riddle: Apparently I have insuficient disk space to install the Youtube app, and yet here is my free space:

/data: 207MB

/system: 104MB

SDcard: 3.23GB

internal SDcard: 498MB

...and somehow it's not enough to install a 7MB app. Rebooting doesn't fix it. Any ideas?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] pipoawas:
Couldn't install 7,9MB Youtube, but successfully installed KMPlayer w/ 11MB :P
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kamus23:
good afternoon, this rom is compatible with the U8800 51??
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Unicorn9x:
no, u8800 51 already have so many rom in here

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] RBwai:
This Rom is really great and could be the best of all previous custom ROM - it has a really great potential.

But one thing that is really annoying, is when I listen to music. After about couple of seconds, there is one second of silence. And this silent pause is repeating every let's say 30 seconds.

Is this problem common with this ROM or is maybe problem in my case only?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] pipoawas:
Please Blefish, can you give us a solution to at least the screen issue? I'm not using test4 because I couldn't cope with the phone crashing half the time because of the unresponsive/max brightness screen bug; so I use test3 instead, but this one has the light sensor issue, thanks to which I can rarely terminate a call. So everytime my calls go to voicemail I have to hear all of the message, which eats through my phone balance. That or trying to find quickly a really bright light to wake up the phone :P
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] ideosx5:
[MENTION=4223446]Blefish[/MENTION] any news?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
Most likely LPA buffering problems. I don't know if these are there in the upcoming version.

I'm reverting to the driver that has lockups. After today's release I will provide some experimental boot images with test drivers.

I'm going to release new version today.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] ggunzio:
Hi there. This is off.topic but its important to me. Like you know, my phone is half screwed, because i cant have wcdma signal, just gsm. So i need to ask you a favor [MENTION=4223446]Blefish[/MENTION]

Could you please upload or sent me directly a dd image from yours? If your phone is working fine. Could you?

Thank you
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] insignia666:
[MENTION=4223446]Blefish[/MENTION] if you are releasing the new version today can u please change volume level of the speakers and headphones its quite low than any other rom....??
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
Unfortunately I can't do that, as it involves sending my IMEI & serial number too. The Russian 2.2 image is not working for you?

I reconfigured all of the speakers. It's likely that the next version might have some issues with sound, but at least I have a solid ground to make changes from.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] snake_boss:
Hi there!

I'm dying to try out the new version!

I have some struggling problems with the default music app, didn't try another one, but i guess it could be VM buffering, and in Apollo we can't change that.

Besides this and the MMS don't work (send/receive problems, with different apps, data on/off, apn configuration it's good) the rom is fine... I'm getting some slowdowns but as Blefish said it's problems with RAM optimizer and i guess the new version will be fine.

Best regards!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] lihenggui:
My phone has the same problem. It can't received 3G signal. I've tried to flash factory 2.2 image or images form my friends, it can't work. I haven't find ways to solve it. Help . Thank you anyway
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] lemene:
I can connect to wifi WPa2 with no problems at all.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] bdgraue:
incredible

the rom is really good, i like it a lot. in my experience it is smooth and fast. :good:

only things i noticed(until now):

- wlan hotspot is missing(or i couldn't find a way to enable it)

- have to wake up the device more than one time, because screen stays blank(while button led at the bottom lights up)

- sometimes laggy/glitchy and slow updating screen
​

will try to use it every day now. if i experience more issues i will report asap :cyclops:
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] JoseRebelo:
Bluetooth tethering is working (slow-ish, but I guess that is just bluetooth being bluetooth) :good:

The phone sometimes sometimes feels extra smooth and then it has what feels like an fps drop, not sure what is causing it.

Also it seems you need to set ro.config.low_ram to false in order to have transparent status bar ._.

Other than that, everything seems to be working :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] riDDimann:
I never thought I'd see this day, but here we are. The old girl soldiers on ;)

Already more solid than 4.2. So we just jumped 3 Android releases to the most recent one. There's a lot of pretty recent, powerful phones out there that don't even run 4.3.

Synaptics TS works, but it does seem like it can stick on like stated. It just doesn't react sometimes.

Glitches in settings are gone as far as I can see. They're still very much there in the status bar. And once the keyboard is pulled up things get ugly (keys get stuck on screen, the text field isn't updated etc.).

And there's the old problem: Wifi doesn't want to connect. Probably the same old wpa-supplicant problem (dzo always included an older version that connects). But at least it turns on and off, which wasn't always the case :D

Have to say it was a bit of an adventure going through the update process flashing more or less blind, because the recovery is glitched as well ;)

Don't ask about the speed though. The Nexus 5 spoils you for any other phone. Nothing but the fastest phones are fast enough once you get used to it.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] jo3fis:
Yeah can't get WIFI to connect either, did you manage to solve or find workaround?

EDIT: I had 802.11n with channel bonding enabled on my router i.e. "Up To 300 Mbps". Turned it down 802.11g (54Mbps) and WIFI connected first pop.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Dalaitseren:
Good Job m8. its working perfect but how to enable ksm. i cant find performance menu in setting
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] lemene:
Go to settings -> about phone, click several times in build number till you are a 'developer'.

Good job，man.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dikerow:
You've done a really great job. But i have some issue. when i press the power button and after calling someone, screen does not turn. whereas the other features work very well. thanks for great efforts.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] skyseel:
Overall, great rom experience [MENTION=4223446]Blefish[/MENTION] !

Bugs I've found so far:

- a lot of times display doesn't turn on (lights on keypad turn on but screen not)

- cannot connect to 802.1 WiFi network (just says Saved, doesn't even bother connecting)

- graphical glitches, it takes a second or so sometimes to fully render screen with all images (at first only half of image is shown or more, then the rest is displayed)

Attached is the logcat, if it will be any help to you.

And last, feature I'd like to see (low importance):

- missing up/down arrows on signal strenght icon indicating upload / download while on 3G connection

Keep up the good work!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] JoseRebelo:
Unsure if something changed in the battery driver, but the phone just went from 50% to 30% and then to 0% / shutting down, all in about 10 minutes. This has never happened in the latest version of the previous cm10 rom, at least not this way.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] riDDimann:
As intended by Google. Each time Up/Down arrows appear/disappear they case a layout and redraw cycle of the entire status bar. That eats CPU cycles and battery. More cynical individuals might argue that it's Google trying to hide the fact that Android sends a lot of information about you back to Google ;)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] pl4t!n:
I notice that the ring tone sound is very lower even in settings is on maximum
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] ggunzio:
in fact, i've changed the settings in my router and BANG, connected right after the change. So... I'm thinking there's a problem with the wireless driver of the phone, when it search for wireless networks, and when it found one with the norm N, it cannot connect to it.

Give it a shot blefish ;)

btw, my router is a Thompson TG799vn

Best regards
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
I was actually referring to the MDP (the chip that sends the buffers to display) might have some kind of issue with the clocks. I see there are two speeds, 122.88MHz & 192MHz. I'll debug on what was used in 2.6.35 & make conclusions.

I said in the changelog as "hopefully" fixed, because I only modified the MDDI driver to send proper commands to the display. I don't experience these on my device at all anymore. Though, might be related to MDP, might also be MDDI hi/lo registers. Let's see...

Yes, & you need to have custom recovery + BlePart installed.

Did you reboot the phone yourself or did it reboot itself? Can you access pink screen? Could you post in the BlePart thread please.

Same display problems, will debug this extensively.

Wi-Fi hotspot is not working properly. Has anyone tried Play Store equivalents?

Could be the "ondemand" governor, or maybe something's keeping the phone CPU busy.

Wi-Fi turn on/off problems should be fixed, as I made the memory allocation for it to NEVER EVER FAIL. I'll see about the Wi-Fi issues as others mentioned aswell.

Might be the same display problem, where display does not turn on.

Same bugs, thanks for reporting.

This will be fixed in the next release. I had to revert some changes because it was possible that the phone's battery could be too much discharged.

I will now fix up the touch screen in Synaptics case, possibly with 2 test zips. One with the new driver, but more modifications, and the other with the Huawei driver forward-ported and cleaned.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] brunomcf:
Hey guys!

Guess everything so far is ok, appart from one big problem, WI-FI.

When I try to connect it only says "Saved". But this also happened on CM 10.1, so I believe its a matter of setting it the right way on my phone.

I' have Zon internet with Zon HUB 3 router. Anyone from Portugal facing the same problem?

Thx
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] JoseRebelo:
Also happens here, I had already reported it in the cm10.1 topic. It used to happen in Aurora too, but dzo fixed it, I think it was a wpa_supplicant update.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] scux:
Wifi did not work. When I changed the settings wifi router from b/g/n mixed to b/g mixed wifi works.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
I'm providing here two test ZIPs. These are both base on the new driver for now, but I am preparing the Huawei driver right now too.

If the first image causes the phone to bootloop/crash, flash the second one. The second one is a fairly small modification that disables PDT writing.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] AceDroidX:
Are those for Atmel too?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] iamwyim:
Hi Blefish:

I have just installed the 24/2 build of your CM11 into my old phone.Everything goes fine! However, I have found that the touchscreen is frozen or not responding, especially when my phone has been waken by sleep! ( My phone is using synaptic touchscreen). Also, the battery drain is quite significant especially when using the 3G network!

By the way, I have tried using ART mode and it works pretty fine! However, the battery drain is just the same as under dalvik. Anyway, thanks for your excellent work.

Cheer

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] ideosx5:
good! ı am looking foward to...:cowboy::D:angel::victory:
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
New release up, enjoy!

This is a bit experimental on the audio part. It can be a bit too quiet or distorted.

Synaptics TS is still not fixed, although using the driver which produced lockups for some people. Will provide some testing updates later.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] ggunzio:
in fact, that image works, but when i update to the 2.3.5 firmware, caput! the wcdma don't work anymore. I just don't want to leave my phone in 2.2, because it causes hot reboots and some others bugs, that i don't have in any 404020 baseband firmwares.

I just sent you a PM. Later i will get back to you again

EDIT: gonna try again, but this time i will not powering up the phone after the dd restore. i've read somewhere that 2.3.5 has a new check, so maybe this is the problem. after dd restore, eject the phone from the pc, insert sd card with B528 and try installing in that way. In the past i could have wcdma, but i cant remember the steps i taked, lol. The only thing i remeber, is used a cmd batch that erased my imei, i think that flashed some hacked efs partition to the phone, after that installed the original 2.3.5 and the wcdma was working. gonna give it a shot again
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dikerow:
Hi [MENTION=4223446]Blefish[/MENTION] first of all, thank you so much your effort. last release have better performance according to previous version. But i dont say same thing for sound. calling sound & media sound very low i dont hear anything when i speaking with somebody. please solve this problem.i think previous version's calling sonunds betterden last release and two before's version media sound is better. again and again thank you.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] zazza8:
In the latest version if you enable auto rotation, rotate the screen to landscape and back to portrait the quick toggle button disappears.

Media volume is the same as in previous updates or even a little louder but call volume is too low.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] RBwai:
In this latest release I have problem with importing my previous SMS's. I use Super Backup apk for backup and restore my SMS's and it works without any problems for previous release (24.4.2014), but in this release no SMS is restored. On the other hand, my contacts and calendars where restored with no porblem.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] JoseRebelo:
I managed to restore all my sms with Titanium Backup. Have you set Super Backup as the default messaging app?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] iamwyim:
HI Blefish again:

It is a great news that you have released the latest build yesterday! I have just installed the build and done a quick test. I still need some time on testing but it is sad that to tell you that it cannot work with ART mode!

Anyway, thanks for your nice work that keeps our phone alive!

Cheer

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
I'm now looking to improve it. It's actually no big deal but when we stick with default configs as much as possible the audio quality is better.

I don't get the fact that for me, audio volumes are just right, maybe the headphones are bit too loud even. Well, the next updates are going to improve on the current version.

The ROM itself should be compatible. Maybe gapps is not ART compatible? Well, at least I know that it worked in some point and the only explanation is some CM team changes (as I am building on top of nightlies that can have broken code from time to time).
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] zazza8:
Actually I'm not sure whether the call volume is the same as in other roms or not but it seems to be pretty quiet even with the highest volume.

Somehow I can't reproduce the quick toggle bug again, it happened couple times yesterday but it doesn't happen anymore :good:.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] pipoawas:
An always welcoming new version. No need to flash test3/4 I assume
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] snake_boss:
My empiric observation confirms that there is low sound on calls when on normal call even on max volume (trough front speaker).

On earphones I think it's the same as previous version and with good sound and quality.

In Speakerphone (back speaker) I didn't try out, but i remember in previous version the sound was way too low to consider it Speakerphone.

BTW: the phone seems a bit faster and don't have so laggy as previous version, but i will do more tests!

Regards,
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Ax1qwer:
Hi Blefish

Will you increase CPU OC frequency in the future ? Maximum is 1400 mhz now. Thanks.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] ideosx5:
in call volume is so low. i think not usable.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] desalesouche:
for art you might try to add in build .prop that line:

dalvik.vm.dexopt-data-only=1

for audio you might try that : make some change in AudioService.java located in frameworks/base/media/java/android/media

do following change:

/** [MENTION=278736]hide[/MENTION] Maximum volume index values for audio streams */

private static final int[] MAX_STREAM_VOLUME = new int[] {

10, // STREAM_VOICE_CALL

15, // STREAM_SYSTEM

15, // STREAM_RING

30, // STREAM_MUSIC

15, // STREAM_ALARM

15, // STREAM_NOTIFICATION

15, // STREAM_BLUETOOTH_SCO

15, // STREAM_SYSTEM_ENFORCED

15, // STREAM_DTMF

15 // STREAM_TTS

it has helped for low voice call and others things

hope both would help you...

edit: that commit also might help https://github.com/PimpedKernel/and...mmit/a7415befb7cec314d7790ed23acbb4c7af3596a9

In previous version (cm-11-20140224) atr works fine, but I have only one problem IGO Primo 2.0 not working. So it could be that something is not working in ART mode.

I'm not using X5 anymore, but some users from Turkish forums reported that in-call volume is very low and not enough to hear voice.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dancer_69:
That mentioned before. This is the reason I haven't update to latest version yet. I'm waiting for @Blefish to release a fix for this. Even if we have the previous version behaviour is fine for now.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] lihenggui:
Add

Sometimes touchscreen freezes (sy-touchscreen) (not appeared in previous version)

Hardware decode doesn't work. When i open the videos by native player , my phone crashes.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
Would you like it to be same as in dzo's Aurora?

I fixed this, will do a boot.img update soon.

Will see about this problem. I don't think it's got anything to do with the ROM though.

Fixed.

This is the problem with the current driver. I'm preparing something that's ought to fix it but we'll see.

Hardware decoder seems to work for me, 720p videos play properly. Does it happen after reboot too or after long usage?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
I released cm-11-20140406-UNOFFICIAL-Blefish-u8800-update1 (on the first page)

Changes:

* S/N is now parsed from kernel, reducing the number of userspace workarounds.

* Changed small speaker config to increase gain.

* Changed big speaker compression ratio & increased gain.

You can tell me if it improves the speaker setup.

Btw, it does seem ART is not working, but not because of the device-specific changes but cm-11.0 changes in general (applying to all nightlies).

Some discussion here: http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/62128/
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] pipoawas:
Didn't work

With this new update the general sounds are louder, although I'm sorry to say that the in-call volume is still low. And trying to change it's volume during a call doesn't work (press one volume key to bring the volume slider, then touch the settings icon, and slide the phone-with-sound-coming-from-it icon), it has always low volume and doesn't change.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
What about update2?

Changes on top of update1:

* Rebase to kk_2.7-stable

* Remove extra vSync config (does not affect anything).

* Increased earpiece max volume.

Btw, the volume changes normally with just the volume up-down. I think the extended settings show normal volume (ringer, alarm, media) in that view.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dikerow:
Yeah.. I think earpiece volume is better than update 1. Last release realy very good. Sounds are enough. And increased battery performance. very stable ram optimization. Everything looks like good. You're doing an excellent job. Thank you.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] pipoawas:
Seems much better now thank you ;)

2 updates in an hour and a half... not bad :D
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Ax1qwer:
Yes, if you can, do it :), thanks
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] JoseRebelo:
Gonna test the update 2, glad the volume problem was fixed :D My phone still has battery percentage issues though, the version with the best battery percentages was cm-11-20140209 here.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] wxm0831:
Search keys can be added off screen option in the settings

,thank you very much!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dancer_69:
Using latest version with update 2(I didn't test it without), wifi no longer works. I never had problems with wifi in this rom until now. Wifi doesn't activate. Reboot, wipe cache/dalvic cashe doesn't make any difference.

logcat:
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] RBwai:
I tought, that I did something wrong when instaling update 2, because WIFI not work any more. In latest version 20140406-UNOFFICIAL-Blefish-u8800.zip, wifi work, but after update 2, I've same problem as dancer_69.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
Oh, I believe the wifi module needed updating (after rebase it usually needs to be recompiled). I will do update3 with recompiled wlan module today.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
I released update3 (on the first page).

This updates the wifi module after rebase caused by update2, hopefully letting the wifi start again.

If wi-fi does not start, do the following.

adb shell
su
dmesg
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dancer_69:
With update3 wifi starts, but I cannot connect to my router any more. I push connect and nothing happens. I can connect to another open wifi though. Also when trying to change connection from the one to the device reboots. Also when trying to search and register wireless devices from my router's page, again device reboots.

EDIT:

I tried one more time from router's page, and this time the device connected without reboot!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] pipoawas:
I have no problems with wifi and I am still on update2.

By the way Blefish, does update3 deal with wifi only? If it does then I don't need to install it.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] RBwai:
I try update 3, but realize that latest v20140406 is too laggy. I'm back on v20140224, that works much more fluid for me, unless some smaller bugs.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
Actually I noticed yesterday that the vSync extra config removal disabled vSync events in Android at all. I will do another update today that will fix this. It will also feature a zRAM enhancement.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] RBwai:
That will be very nice. Just one question: is it better to do clean instal of latest v20140406 with update or it will be OK, if I install it over previous version (with only wipe cache and dalvik cache)?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] AceDroidX:
Can u please make a final update with all the changes since latest ROM?

Sent from my IDEOS X5
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
Mostly, simple install is enough. If a wipe is needed I will tell it myself (it has never been needed).

I will do that sometime later. You only need to install the very latest update though, it will feature all changes from previous releases.

I released update4 (on the first page).

Changes:

* Fixes HW vSync events in Android (same as in previous full releases, update2 broke it).

* zRAM enhancement (info).
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] RBwai:
Thanks for great update. System is fluid now and everything looks like working fine.

Where can I find zRAM settings?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] JoseRebelo:
Not sure if you changed anything about this in the latest updates, but other people don't seem to be able to hear me properly in call.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] desalesouche:
