Hi,

Anyone interested in a collaboration?

I'd really like to design a Rorschach watch face for the Smartwatch 2.

I'm a graphic designer so I can make it look great, but I need help getting it to work.

Anyone with some experience interested?

The goal is to get it (cheap) in Google Play Store after a beta test run here on XDA.

Please contact me.

Regards,

Wouter
[Sony Smartwatch] JarlSX:
as soon as Sony makes the SDK available, so we can develop watch face widgets, i will be looking into developing them, might be interested then
[Sony Smartwatch] WouterZ:
Ok, thanks!!! Let's keep in contact

I just fix the problem of Front Camera.

Now it works in Scene Mode Auto.

As I'm still testing other things I don't upload the kernel with this fix. Maybe this weekend I upload it

New Rom release

New Rom release.

Check first post.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] hed190:
hi Lingfude, the file 99*** for the buttons leds turn ON doesnt work on this ROM.

On settings, Visuals, "Cenes" doesn't work.

My GPS continues to get signal a bit late, 5 minutes...

for the rest i'm very excited with this ROM, GREAT WORK!!!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] lingfude:
Check if your build.prop have this line: sys.initd=1

If not add it.

I still haven't had time to see this problem.

EDIT:

I found the problem.

This is because my Rom uses the new KitKat launcher (GoogleHome.apk + Velvet.apk) and the Scenes menu calls the default launcher (Launcher2.apk).

When I have some time I will try fix this problem.

Until then you can replace the GoogleHome.apk + Velvet.apk with Launcher2.apk.

Even after downloading the A-GPS data? :confused:

My GPS fix just fine.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] lingfude:
New version Deodex vs Odex

Hi all.

For those who tested the first Deodex Rom, I ask them to test the new Odex version and tell me if it's more smoother than the Deodex version.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Dalcielo:
Hi lingfude..

thanks for your rom.

I have an old rom Android 4.0.4 with the change to have more memory for applications.

This change can cause problems with your rom? Can I have the same memory (about 2.5 giga)

for applications with your rom?

Bye..
[Miscellaneous Android Development] lingfude:
I think so.

Test it and don't forget to make a full backup first.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] lingfude:
I decompile Velvet.apk (KitKat Launcher) and I don't found anything regarding to Scenes settings.

I don't know if the KitKat Launcher has Scenes settings. :confused:

If you find something regarding this matter please tell me.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mig_mig:
I'm testing v1.1 Deodex and in my opinion is faster then Deodex v1.0 but have more comsumption of power. Antutu 8379 pt.

BDW

* I suggest add MP5 code or similar. I downloaded file from drive.google with defect and I was problems.

* In Gallery in edit on tuck Color don't work punch, vintage, B/W and other and after touch tuck "+/-" gallery closed with comunicat com.android.gallery3d was stoped"

The rest is very very good!

edit 1:

* Don't ring system timer alarm. It don't kill by task killer, memory optimizer, firewall or antivirus. In manager of volume all is max. In setup alarm sound.

edir 2:

In my opinion the new Odex is not smoother than the first Deodex. Programs open up "after some thought". I have the impression that the programs are also working slowly though Antutu test is 8675 points.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ivanaki:
Thanks lingfude,

Really this is amazing work.

Thanks once more.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] lingfude:
Good News

I just release a patch that solves the floating volume when hearing music. Thanks to superdragonpt.

See the third post.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] isrhory:
hey tnx for great rom!

there is a problem with the network its only have 'g' signal not 'h'. i think it because network mode is on wcdma and cannot be changed..even in mtk engineer mode i didnt succeed to change to dual mode(gsm + wcdma..

any idea?tnx

changed to slot 2 and work
[Miscellaneous Android Development] isrhory:
Am I the only one who experience system boots and crashes all the time??
[Miscellaneous Android Development] lingfude:
I don't know but I don't have this problem in my N1.

What Rom and Kernel are you using?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] isrhory:
your kernel 3.4.5 and your rom(4.2 2/5/14) odex. maybe i try doedex?

tnx for your great job by the way:good:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] lingfude:
Maybe some application that you have is causing this. :confused:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] hed190:
Try to re-install both, rom and kernel.

I dont have that problem.

LingFude, did u tried the other launcher? Im tired of this one is so slow :p
[Miscellaneous Android Development] lingfude:
I'm trying a new compilation to see if performance improves.

If you go to my Git you will see I have been busy with our kernel.

Just wait a little bit more. ;)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Dalcielo:
Where is the new kernel?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] superdragonpt:
Don't ask ETA's Please :)

This things takes time.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] Dalcielo:
Excuse me, I'd know it was already released..
[Miscellaneous Android Development] isrhory:
gps

hey i installed deodex rom and everythin just ine now tnx.

now i have problem with the gps, never get signal.. iv ried epo and agps data download but nothing...

any idea?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] lingfude:
Use FasterGPS to setup the best NTP Servers for you and maybe you want to install the new kernel 3.4.5.

Don't forget to hit thanks button. ;)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mike_san:
I guess this one also has the Pink camera. Even with the new kernel.

Thanks though! another person improving our phone!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] lingfude:
No Pink camera on Newman N1.

Both cameras are working just fine.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mike_san:
this rom can work on v970m? the phones are similar.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] lingfude:
This Rom is ported from ZTE V970 4.2.2 v1.4 by superdragonpt.

I think superdragonpt is working on an fix for the pink camera problem.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Tennic:
I'm using for a few days the rom v4.2.2 release 2014-05-02 (with kernel v1.3), after so long with the v4.1.1 release 2013-04-27.

Is it just me, or v4.2.2 is less reactive and more jerky than the 4.1.1?

For example, when I scroll the menus, there are micro lag that had not seemed to me they were there.

These are just my impressions, or it is likely that the performance of v4.2.2 are lower than the v4.1.1? :confused:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] lingfude:
I have this lags too with JB 4.2.2.

Try install the Initd performance tweaks.zip and make sure that you have this line "sys.initd=1" in your build.prop.

With this tweaks I have less lags.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] superdragonpt:
Theres some minor lag on 4.2.2 transitions comparing to the 4.1.x

Just go to settings> dev options, and turn OFF the transitions effects.

Furthermore, about the 4.2, a lot of "hacks" where needed in "porting" the AMOI 4.2 release to other mt6577 phones.

Considering all that i'll say, its quite stable and a great rom.

About "performance" : Just try and run an couple of benchs (e.g.: AnTuTu) and you'll notice an big improvement. ( dont be fooled by the launcher minor lag)

Also you'll notice that GPS is improved, since this rom uses the new GPS binaries of the 4.2 release.

Regards ;)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] lingfude:
Hi to All.

In post #3 I added a new section Updates.

There you will find the last version of

Google Now Launcher

and the

JB 4.2.2 stock Launcher2

.

Please, give me an feedback about the performance between the new Google Now Launcher and the stock Launcher.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Tennic:
I'm going to install the patch that you had mentioned ;)

I have a little question: with this patch, the battery remains the same or decreases? :confused:

I tried to set the governor on performance, but the lag in the menus remained, so it was not a problem for governor.

Therefore, I believe that even with the patch the battery remains the same, but maybe someone who uses it already, you can confirm this :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] lingfude:
Don't worry about the battery, this tweaks wont mess with battery.

Install the patch and the new Google Now Launcher and give me feedback about the launcher lags. ;)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Dalcielo:
Hi lingfude..

I flash your ROM 4.2.2. I have only a problem with the partitions..

I have "Internal Storage" of 2,46 GB, my SD Card and a partion of 55,02 MB

call Phone Storage. Can I erase Phone Storage partiton?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Dalcielo:
Hi.. I have a new problem with the rom, all toggle are disappeared. How I can risolve this problem?

[Miscellaneous Android Development] lingfude:
You can use Gravitybox to add the itens you want.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] P1azer:
I'm goin' to upgrade my phone with ur ROM from 4.1.1 to 4.2.2 and than flash Kernel 3.4.5 (latest). Is it neccessary to make a full WIPE after that or is that just optional? It's still upgrade of android version so I gess that WIPE will be right thing.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] lingfude:
For Rom upgrade from 4.1.1 to 4.2.2 you need to make a Full Wipe - just follow the instructions in post #2.

For Kernel upgrade to 3.4.5 you don't need to make any wipe - see post #2.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] P1azer:
ROM looks stable this all day, especially proximity sensor works nice (on older version I had a problem with black screen after phone calls). But immadietly after I flashed newest ROM I found out that reproduction of sound isn't correct. It's like "wavy sound", I mean when I play some music than volume of sound from speaker is not on constant level and it changes every moment. It's the exact same issue why I left MIUI ROM. Do you know what can be wrong? Thank you.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] lingfude:
Easy. :D

Go to post #3 of this thread, read and download "Fix floating volume when hearing music".
[Miscellaneous Android Development] P1azer:
Many thanx. It helped. Next problem is slower GPS fix. Is it possible to turn on A-GPS and EPO from settings menu? On older version there was an opostion to turn it on. I cycled to work this morning and ENdomondo get singnal somewhere on the second half of my track (it's about 8km). It was first fix after I flashed new ROM and I know that next fix could be faster but I have "unlimited" mobile data from my emplyer so I can use also mobile data to get faster fix and accurate position.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] lingfude:
Yes, it's possible turn on A-GPS and EPO.

1. Turn on GPS

2. Goto Settings>Location access

3. Tap on GPS satellites - here you can turn on A-GPS and EPO

One more thing, I recommend that you install one of the updates on post #3
[Miscellaneous Android Development] P1azer:
Oh, there is submenu under GPS satelites :).

Why I should use one of those lunchers? I'm currently using Apex luncher becuase I get used to it and I have backed up home screens settings (position of icons etc.). So Is there any special reason why I have to flash one of those updates?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] lingfude:
If you use Apex Launcher you don't need to use any of these updates.

I just said that because I thought that you use the Launcher included in the Rom.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] P1azer:
Do sb have problem with 1st SIM slot? It's strange, but if I put O2 SIM card to 1st slot and T-Mobile SIM to 2nd slot, than O2 network is most of time unavailable. When I changed the SIM cards, than everything goes well. But O2 is my working card and I have mobile data allowed there. Could it be caused by ROM or smthing is wrong with SIM card? I have no problems before I ugraded to newest version. Thx
[Miscellaneous Android Development] zivalarasa:
Storage Problem !!

I have a big problem with this ROM. I dont use External SD card . The rom doesn't gives you the option to store your apps in phone storage. I have internal memory of 2.5 GB where apps can be installed in primary partition of 503 MB and the rest 2 GB is free. In other roms I can select my preffered location. There can be 2 solution..

Either you tell me the way to increase my storage from 503 mb to say 1 gb or you canModify your rom to have a choice of installation location of the apps.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] lingfude:
What Rom you were using before this one?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] P1azer:
I tried to upgrade kernel, but 1.4 and 1.4.1 gave mi force closes. And when I put back 1.3, I am not able to change sound notification settings.Some table with Force close error shows up for very long period (les than 1s) but it seems to be "process.android.media". I forgot to make backup before I flashed new kernel, but its still kernel and i dont think that restore od backup could help. Any solution?thx

EDIT: I already try to clean cache and dalvik chace... but with no success.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] lingfude:
Try clean Media data.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] zivalarasa:
rom used

I was using1.09 official stock rom. I properly installed ur rom. No problem in tht. All i want to know is can u add a feature to change the default location of apps?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] P1azer:
I did full WIPE and it works now.

Next issue is camera recording. The sound is not synchronized with picture (sound is like 1s later than picture).thx
[Miscellaneous Android Development] jastonas:
which recovery do you suggest to flash this rom?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] lingfude:
I use CM-based Recovery 6.0.1.2 but you can use any recovery that works on Newman N1.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] sas90850:
I don't know why this setting can solve this problem (May be).

Go to

start > Setting > Connection > USB to PC

Step:

1. Uncheck USB to PC

2. Start > Setting > System > Screeen > Calibration the Alignment of Screen

3. Soft Reset.

My friend also use CHT9000 (Taiwan Version) and told me this method. After the above mentioned adjustment, not alignment problem up to this moment.

I also use this method. 2 days gone, no alignment problem was found. I will keep to update this post in the future.

Hope it can help. :roll:
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] vapor:
anyone else tried this? anything to comment?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] jeezus:
There is a thread or two about this on the general side or somewhere.

"Search" will work fine.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] joebacsi74:
I tought it is working but not.

I have contacted with the local HTC/QTEK partner.

Waiting for the official solution.

BR,

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] low405:
I think that I may have a proper fix. my alignment seemed to be fixed by a rom upgrade but has been getting prgressively worse for a few days. Last night I tried something hardware based. I will test this for two days before I will say what it is but I have had no misalignment issue in the few hours since I did it.

Phil
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] vapor:
could you post what you did so even if it doesnt work, we would know?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] low405:
Ok it hasn't shifted at all today!

I was going to open it up to have a look at the rubber gasket that was mentioned in another post but chickened out!

Optional but probably a good idea; turn off and remove the battery.

1) Slide keyboard out and turn face down.

2) There are 2 tiny screws on the back of the screen that need to be undone. They have thread lock on them so a small crack will be heard as it releases.

3) Once the screws are out a further small crack noise may be heard. That'll be the tension being taken off the screen!

4) Put the screws back in and tighten (or should that be TyTN?). Do not over tighten these as it is only plastic.

5) If necessary realign the screen (hopefully for the last time)

As kind of proof that this has worked, this post was made from my v1605 on hsdpa while I was talking on the phone using bluetooth and got very hot and didn't need any realigning!

Hope it works for others!

Phil
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] sectorlord:
I have the O2 Trion and my screen will be slight misaligned at the right side (cant use the vert scroll bar) . Is this exactly your problem ?

Does your problem happened again, if not could you post some pic/steps on how you did it ?

Thanks :roll:
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] vapor:
4) Put the screws back in and tighten (or should that be TyTN?). Do not over tighten these as it is only plastic.

as long as there is no excessive used here, that is what you mean right?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] low405:
That's what mine was doing when it got hot but it has been perfect all day!

You're correct. Before I did this one screw was clearly at an angle and afterwards it was straight.

If anyone else has success let me know and I'll try to get some photos and do a how-to on the wiki.

Phil
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] vapor:
i tried this out for my friend and he claims that while it did fix the alignment problem on the right side, sometimes the screen becomes slightly misaligned. could be that i tightened a bit too hard so will look into this.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] atonparis:
yes please
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] sectorlord:
hi ...

when I undone the 2 screws.. i dont hear ANY noise... but I remove and returned it a little bit untight.

Let see... :roll:
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] low405:
Anybody had any success with this?

I haven't had any alignment issues since I did this 2 days ago.

Phil
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] vapor:
When I did it for my friend, he claims that the screen, while does not have as serious an alignment problem as before, still has it. Its not that bad.

He notices that the problem usually comes after making a call. No matter how long the call (whether for 1 min or 40 mins), the screen will be slightly mis-aligned and needs to be re-aligned. Things like pressing the 'ENTER' button on the phone pad does not work unless he presses a certain part of the button.

Any advice for him?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] sectorlord:
low45,

I undone the 2 screws but hear no click or crack and return it back not so tight... is that the correct way... I will monitor mine, since it only happening once a day..
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] hdubli:
Though I do not hv one but I can inform that it is the bad quality of work..this has been happening to all the recent G4 Wizards and Prophets with SZ series serial number.

I think thehardware design has gone wrong..

Pls check yr serial number..if they start from HT or SZ
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] vapor:
i think all the HTC Hermes manufactured are of the HT version

ok... after a day.. it happened again...

I just hard reset and did not load the extROM last night... let see .. :roll:

me i go back to change it

i have HT630xxxx and no probleme
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] stoneskid:
I only notice a problem when I try to use the X to close out of a program. Strange thing is that if i do get out of the app then go back in the screen is realigned and it works properly.

Is what everyone else is seeing as well or is the screen alignment off all the time?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] prengo:
I've just spoken to the Italian support and the engineer told me that should be a "new procedure"??!!!? that solve this problem, he will call me tomorrow to explain the procedure......I have an HTC628XXX S/N.......

I will save a prayer for the solution.

As soon as they'll call me.......

Ciao.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] gianvi:
I'm experiencing the same issue with my Italian TyTN... Hope we'll find a solution, it seems more an hardware problem than a software issue because first 2 weeks it happened only once, while now after a month of use it happens more and more often, sometimes 5 or 6 times in a day... :cry:
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] sectorlord:
To verify if it's SW issue... try to hard reset .. and you will see that this issue will ALMOST disappear.. (maybe once a day or two...or if youre lucky it will not return at all) really depends the 3rd app your loading..

If it's a HW issue... it must happen as frequent as day one, means it will be consistent.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] bydandie:
OK, I'm now getting more convinced on the digitiser issue. Have major alignment issues on PIN entry, but as soon as I log in can use scroll bar fine! :shock:
