[RAZR HD Android Development] mega_man:
guys any update on android 5.0 for jbbl devices????
[RAZR HD Android Development] palmbeach05:
Yes, the same thing that's been said for days now. When the kkbl version is more stable or night lies begin, we will start to see development. It will either be 3.0 or 3.4 kernel, depending on what the devs decide.
[RAZR HD Android Development] iBolski:
If your bootloader is unlocked, I would really suggest upgrading to KKBL and then you can revert back to JB if you wish, but that way, you could run this current version.

I have no idea if/when a JBBL version will come out. I wouldn't be surprised if they don't release one since JB is an older version for this phone, but I don't want to speak for the devs. It could happen, but again, if your bootloader is unlocked, then I would suggest upgrading to KK. You won't lose the unlocked bootloader nor root if you do.
[RAZR HD Android Development] palmbeach05:
He's on AHD like I am. The JBBL devs have already stated what I said in my last post, I was just restating the info they already released.
[RAZR HD Android Development] iBolski:
That's one of the confusing aspects of this phone - too many versions! When someone doesn't tell me the specific type, I just assume it's the XT926 LTE version. :p

My bad.
[RAZR HD Android Development] palmbeach05:
Its all good.
[RAZR HD Android Development] Zeljko1234:
Finally got some time to flash latest cm-12-20141130 kitstalk build. Dirty worked but couldn't get network signal. Maybe because of SuperSU and build in Superuser (yes latest build has it). Then I did clean flash. Restoring was easy because it works now, check screenshot. Also, Razr never has been that smooth even during restoring apps (installing). All apps restored, including settings.
[RAZR HD Android Development] lcc014:
Is there any thread in here to show the steps to upgrade JBBL to KKBL ? I want to do that to get ready for 5.0 ROM.

Thanks.
[RAZR HD Android Development] Zeljko1234:
It is explained in CM11, I made c/p of that in Q/A sub forum and quickly described again there after upgrade. But that's for xt926!!! For xt925 check kk tracking.
[RAZR HD Android Development] CWGSM3VO:
I think you're calling out something very important here I'm sure some of us do (some more than others) by going hog-wild with the Privacy Guard and/or AppOps in reducing "surface exposure" of apps. I can understand some 3rd party app like say "Bobs Game" or "Bills Email Client" but some folks in here (you know who you are) do things like block GMS, disable communication for core apps and such things.

Let me be the first to say that if you're doing such things, you're much better off to REMOVE these apps than block them and even more better off to let them function the way they're supposed to be (I mean in the strictest sense, apps like Google apps or CM apps; anything else in my opinion is fair game for PG/AO...)

I know Z will argue with me until he's blue in the face on this, but I know he's wrong ;)

Some people are running obvious software which conflicts or making modifications that don't make sense and then state they're having problems. If you're one of these people, forget the hype you've read, the poor advice you've been given and let the device run the way it's supposed to. If you've got something to hide from Google (for example) then get it off the phone or remove GApps and use local storage equivalents.

Another thing I wanted to point out is apps like JuiceDefender, Greenify, Wakelock Blocker, etc do more harm than good. This isn't Jellybean Land any more Toto. If you're having problems with battery and not getting 2+ days from your device (925/926) you're either heavy on the usage and thems-the-breaks or you have runaways apps/practices killing your battery (or... your battery is just plain worn out...)

This rambling PSA has been brought to you by the letter C and the number 925.
[RAZR HD Android Development] Zeljko1234:
Looks like that you're already blue in the face defending your opinion as universal ;)

For your information, right now I'm not using privacy guard to block anything. Blocking Google play service was working workaround to prevent damn service to drain battery trying to get phone (and user) location. I know that you're following CM commits and it was some of them to fix play service problem. So, you can admit or not but problem existed and most probably will pop up again in the future.

About tin foil. Google and many other companies (MS with Win10) attacking more and more our privacy. Yes, they put that in the term of use, license or whatever and we have to agree or do not use the product. But do we have alternative? Android suppose to be open source but its main part, play service, is closed. Without play service, all Google apps will not work and some 3rd party paid apps.

Many people, like you, will say "I have nothing to hide". Maybe you have, maybe not. Maybe you don't know until is too late. But even if we really don't have something to hide, do we really wish to expose all our communication, files (especially at work), geographical positions, activities, health (yeah, wearable device like one I have), etc?

Sorry for off topic. To make you up, let me expose what I did last night :D
[RAZR HD Android Development] pete355sb:
C I'm sorry I know this is a little off topic but you don't use any battery saving apps? What about adguard ect? I couldn't pass up the opportunity to ask someone as knowledgeable as yourself. Thanks Pete
[RAZR HD Android Development] CWGSM3VO:
Just saw the commits for KKBL kernel BFQ -- nice!
[RAZR HD Android Development] CWGSM3VO:
Nope, nothing like that. No adblocker either.
[RAZR HD Android Development] rahimali:
/begin rant/ Google Play Services in and of itself is a huge problem. It has become a be all and end all app and subsequently hugely bloated. IMHO they should split it up into little purpose-specific *****lets like for example one for people who want to use Google contacts, another one for location users and yet another one for people who use Google fit... /end rant/ :)
[RAZR HD Android Development] drkdeath5000:
C what do you think of BatteryDoctor? I agree with you that these battery saving apps are pretty useless but theres a feature in this app that slows down the cpu when the screen is off. Its also capable of switching to set profiles at scheduled times, i use it to switch to airplane mode at night and resume to normal in the morning. I only use it for those 2 features and all other options are disabled, i figured it was worth keeping for the scheduled profiles.
[RAZR HD Android Development] Thibault1171:
Hi guys, sorry for off-topic subject, but what are you thinking about this near-ended project: https://www.kickstarter.com/project...rce=jellop&utm_medium=ocpm&utm_content=jellop ?
[RAZR HD Android Development] CWGSM3VO:
So I've been testing the new kernel additions (mainly, the BFQ scheduler) and seems to work just fine. I've altered my build to use it by default in order to take advantage of the init tuning for it. If there's no build tonight posted, I'll post up this build.
[RAZR HD Android Development] CWGSM3VO:
Sounds fine to me in theory. I seem to recall having that ability in the stock ROM as well.

I can honestly say I get pretty decent battery out of these builds with nothing special on top of it (basically, CM+gapps) and ~2 days of battery power is not uncommon for me.

But as Z pointed out, different revisions/builds of the device can have it's own unique issues in that what works fine for me is problematic for others.
[RAZR HD Android Development] Thibault1171:
It would be nice of you :D

Nobody checked the kickstarter project I've linked? :crying:
[RAZR HD Android Development] CWGSM3VO:
I looked -- it's a cool idea but I'm not enough of an audiophile to appreciate it :)
[RAZR HD Android Development] Thibault1171:
Okay :D

I'm not sure if it's worth it or not.
[RAZR HD Android Development] Zeljko1234:
Great idea but Google is doing opposite. I think with LP or earlier, they put even more in play service and introduced that as a feature. Explanation goes like this: previous that part (web engine or something) was part of Android and could be updated only with it. Now is part of play service and would be silently push to any device without needs to update OS itself. Solution for any vulnerability may occur in Android...

It make sense but problem is in closed source, silently push and size of it. You should submit your idea to Google, to create pico play service or something like that. As we have unofficial for gaps.

---------- Post added at 11:03 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:46 AM ----------

I've checked. I know few people who use something like that to listen music and they claim that difference is huge. In whole audio chain, the weakest part is dynamic driver unit. Source (FLAC instead of low bitrate mp3), DAC, amplifier, cables... are important but nothing will make crappy driver sounds better. So to use high quality DAC/amplifier, you have to have good headphones first.

Personally I'm using MDR-ZX770BN for indoor, for outdoor, sports etc Audio66. It's more convenient be cable free, DAC and amplifier is built in. Quality is really good, especially Sony model and active noise cancellation helps a lot in airplane. I had Bose Q15, noise cancellation is better than Sony's but I don't like sound, lack of bass.

Sorry for off topic again but you asked for :)
[RAZR HD Android Development] CWGSM3VO:
9-27 unofficial build posted, follow link in my sig. I've forced BFQ to be enabled on boot, otherwise stock CM. I also built with IBM Java rather than Oracle or OpenJDK.

EDIT: Noticed some caveats; BFQ is not set for mmcblk1 and slice_idle is set for neither, you'll need to manually set them to take full advantage.

EDIT: To make it easy for everyone, execute the following from root terminal/shell prompt:

echo bfq > /sys/block/mmcblk0/queue/scheduler
echo 0 > /sys/block/mmcblk0/queue/iosched/slice_idle
echo bfq > /sys/block/mmcblk1/queue/scheduler
echo 0 > /sys/block/mmcblk1/queue/iosched/slice_idle
[RAZR HD Android Development] Thibault1171:
The Audio66 seems great. The Sony headset is really expensive.

I personally use a Sennheiser Momentum On ear. But I also use earphone when I can't carry my headset. So I actually use Xiaomi Mi Piston 3 (previously Roccat and CoolerMaster, but they were better for gaming)

[MENTION=4418762]CWGSM3VO[/MENTION] : I'll may try your build soon, thanks.
[RAZR HD Android Development] Zeljko1234:
After flashing, turned my phone to iphone :D It's pretty cool that how desktop icons are restored and tinny circle showing progress of downloading/installing.

Similar price as for Sennheiser you have. Btw, not so long ago I bought Sennheiser HD558. I was so excited about it, many people consider it as audiophile headphones. Sound is really good but open circumaural design means that no any environmental noise isolation at all. Sennheiser designed that way to simulate stand alone loudspeakers experience. It make sense but not in most cases I use headphones. Cable is also not standard 3,5 mm on both side, one side is 2,5.

Audio66 sounds really good, batter life is awesome. Only disadvantage is that BT stream sometimes stutter and only outside on direct sun?! In this case, you have to keep your phone closer to the headset. No problems is cloudy outside or you're in for example in forest.
[RAZR HD Android Development] Zeljko1234:
Just for info, BT Headphones + DCT + FLAC + Cowboy Junkies = stuttering. C's build with tweaks he posted. Nothing else changed. Changing battery mode to performance stopped stuttering.
[RAZR HD Android Development] amedeh123:
Clean flashed with Delta Gapps instead. No dice, same freezing issues. Managed to catch one of such lockdowns in a logcat, if somebody wants to look into it.

Sometimes it will even crash systemui along with it and ONLY ever happens when launching apps. Happens mostly on YT and Play Store.

I will be going back to my trusty old 13-06 build and give it some time to get sorted out before I try to upgrade again.
[RAZR HD Android Development] CWGSM3VO:
Are you using an adblocker? Looks like (to me) when your Reddit app tried to sync, it started causing issues.

The only GApps I use is DHacker's gapps.

Here's your SystemUI going down:

E/ActivityManager( 818): ANR in com.android.systemui

And here is where your Reddit app took a header, before the ANR above:

I/ActivityManager( 818): Start proc 18805:com.laurencedawson.reddit_sync/u0a80 for service com.laurencedawson.reddit_sync/.service.MessagingService

W/Zygote (18805): Slow operation: 34054ms so far, now at Zygote.callPostForkChildHooks

W/Zygote (18805): Slow operation: 34144ms so far, now at Zygote.nativeForkAndSpecialize

W/Zygote (18805): Slow operation: 34155ms so far, now at Zygote.postForkCommon

W/Zygote (18805): Slow operation: 34162ms so far, now at zygoteConnection.runOnce: postForkAndSpecialize

See plenty of http POST errors trying to reach Google (analytics, etc) but the address was changed to localhost (127.0.0.1) making me think adblocker. See a failed backup as well. Can see kworker is tied up too. Looks like (guessing here) that the Reddit sync spins away (fork-bomb-ish) and take a few things with it, device eventually recovers but a lot hurt along the way.

I'm probably wrong here but that's what it looks like. My suggestion is to try a different GApps and skip the Reddit app and see if it reproduces. If you're doing a dirty-flash/upgrade, wipe dalvik+cache to rebuild everything. If you're doing a clean-flash, don't restore data, rebuild it.
[RAZR HD Android Development] CWGSM3VO:
Does it repro with the stock music player?
[RAZR HD Android Development] rahimali:
and you can find those here. I can also confirm I've used those on a different device (LG Tablet) on CM12.1 without issue whatsoever
[RAZR HD Android Development] CWGSM3VO:
I'm using the 4-25 gapps, not 6-07 -- didn't know he had a newer one. Based on his twitter posting (at the time) 4-25 was the newest. Thanks.
[RAZR HD Android Development] amedeh123:
You're not wrong. That was what caused crashes and instability. And funnily enough, I still had crashes related to Sync on the logs even after uninstalling it. I had to reboot to get rid of everything.

I would never have guessed. This app doesnt even run in the background, it just checks for messages every once in a while. That also explains why the rom works ok initially, then craps out.

And yes, I do use an adblocker, with a 30mb/day data plan, I'm not really fond of having extra "download" buttons, and messages telling me I have a virus in my phone. :)

Anyway, so far so good, thanks for the help :good:
[RAZR HD Android Development] CWGSM3VO:
Should be an official 9-28 nightly by the way Jenkins is looking. Posted new build current to Ia3eb170ca1c8e698e72d931806f80d79d48a5ec1: sysutils: Hush logging. BFQ scheduler, etc is defaulted correctly this build on boot, otherwise stock CM.
[RAZR HD Android Development] d5grvty:
Flashed the 28th nightly

I'll chime in with the music stuttering issue as well, on both a plugged in headset as well as bluetooth. Seems to happen more often with the screen off. Can't remember which nightly it started on.
[RAZR HD Android Development] CWGSM3VO:
Official or unofficial? I don't have a BT headset to test with but I can't repro this with Play Music or stock Music with wired headset. I haven't had these kinds of issues in some time actually.
[RAZR HD Android Development] insanix:
And maybe it is just a hardware problem, phone or BT headset... Worth a try guys
[RAZR HD Android Development] Zeljko1234:
Setting battery mode to performance solve it. It's more that kernel governor is not giving enough juice to app/process when needed. Gave me idea to try tweaking interactive governor.
[RAZR HD Android Development] rahimali:
Just a random idea but do you wanna try Nephilim's tweaks? They're actually for another device I use Samsung Galaxy Nexus but no harm in trying if they improve smoothness on our devices?
[RAZR HD Android Development] Zeljko1234:
Link?

You can use Kernel Adiutor to apply most of the kernel tweaks
[RAZR HD Android Development] Thibault1171:
Hi, when I was reading this, it reminds me an old bug (but it's still happening, today for example). When I'm listening music (with DCT, but it was the same with Google Music or other players) and use chrome/facebook/snapchat, my music stops (and the notification disapear, as if my player get killed). It also happened in Performance battery mode. As anyone ever get this kind of issue?
[RAZR HD Android Development] zekemo:
I pulled the log cycling between Global and LTE. Should I just post it in a code/quote bracket? Seems like a lot of info; is there anything personal I should not post in it? Thanks again.
[RAZR HD Android Development] CWGSM3VO:
ZIP them up. Remove any email addresses or other personally identifying information such as IMEI, etc (search & replace). Attach the ZIP to thread or link to it so I can take a look (and others can too). Also, you probably mentioned it, but I forgot the build you're using, please indicate this as well. If it's not "stock" CM, please indicate how you deviated from stock.
[RAZR HD Android Development] Zeljko1234:
That's Android and its memory management. If OS needs more memory, will kill some apps. You can try to adjust OOM (Out Of Memory) with 3C toolbox or similar but don't expect great results. C was doing that (and many more) with his script, if you remember. Maybe he/we can start to mess with that again.

Anyway, flashed latest build today but didn't have time to play with it at all. I'll check how DCT will perform but I'm not expecting something amazing, awesome, revolutionary, etc. Hopefully will be surprised :)
[RAZR HD Android Development] zekemo:
The problem started on the 9/03 nightly. I tried everything I could to connect to 4G, I even tried #228(bad idea I am thinking), then forcing it was the only option. I did a clean installed of I believe 9/19-completly wiped with RSD to factory (4G still didn't work on factory), flashed TWRP and then couldn't get CM 12.1 to flash so I flashed to CM11 just to get my phone functional and that is what I am on now. If you can skim my radio log for sensitive info I'd be grateful. I hit IMEI and number, that's all I knew to look for. I can be more detailed in my flashing process if needed, but I cannot make calls and be on 4G at the same time on stock, CM11 or CM12.1. Thanks for your help.

Almost forgot to mention, I was toggling between LTE and Global, which a few toggles to CDMA for giggles.
[RAZR HD Android Development] Zeljko1234:
Have you tried your SIM in another phone or another SIM in your phone? And test LTE/voice/SMS? Because CM is not touching radio at all. RSD to stock should overwrite almost all, including radio. Before you RSD to stock, you should try older build, before 9/03. Maybe problems is not in radio, maybe CM messed up with signaling.

Before flashing (always clean) any new rom I always make a backup. After flashing latest CM12.1, my phone uses LTE. I was able to receive SMS to confirm my Google account. Didn't try voice call. I usually manually switch to 3G. Coverage is better, drains battery less and in roaming I don't use data a lot.

If your network doesn't support VoLTE (btw, I saw many commits for IMS recently) then your phone must fallback to 3G/2G to make a legacy voice call and going back to LTE after. Some phones/networks cannot keep PDP context and must re-attach again. That feature must be supported by the phone and the network.

Edit: I see you have xt926. AFAIK only Verison LTE is supported.
[RAZR HD Android Development] zekemo:
I flashed to 100% stock with RSD using a full wipe, the problem persisted. Perhaps the issue is beyond this thread. Do you have any other ideas other than testing on another device? Do you suppose the SIM card is bad or verizon has me registered weird in their system?

What would you suggest to diagnose/fix this?
[RAZR HD Android Development] Zeljko1234:
So you're on Verison. Add that to your forum profile, will help next time :)

Could be both. What you can do and I would recommend, investigate as much you can. Try your SIM in another phone or opposite, just to be sure where is the problem. If SIM is bad or something happened to your profile in Verison, you'll be ready for their questions or even better "attack" them immediately with info you have/tested.
[RAZR HD Android Development] CWGSM3VO:
So I looked at the log, few things stand out to me but since I know nothing about CDMA, I don't know if it's relevant:

D/RILJ ( 7754): Set RIL_REQUEST_SET_INITIAL_ATTACH_APN
D/RILJ ( 7754): [3983]> RIL_REQUEST_SET_INITIAL_ATTACH_APN, apn:VZWINTERNET, protocol:IPV4V6, authType:-1, username:null, password:null
D/RilRequest( 7754): [3983]< RIL_REQUEST_SET_INITIAL_ATTACH_APN error: com.android.internal.telephony.CommandException: REQUEST_NOT_SUPPORTED ret=
D/CdmaSST ( 7754): [CdmaLteSST] EVENT_GET_CELL_INFO_LIST: error ret null, e=java.lang.RuntimeException: Bad CellInfo Parcel
W/RILJ ( 7754): [3991]< RIL_REQUEST_GET_CELL_INFO_LIST exception, possible invalid RIL response

And so on. One thing that comes to mind was there was quite a bit of APN work done especially with Verizon over the last little while (and the commits Z mentioned as well). So I have an easy idea for you to test out:

- If the problem started with 9/3, I'm assuming that 9/2 and previous builds worked fine.

- Copy /etc/apns-conf.xml from a older, working build over top of the same file in a current build with same permissions and ownership.

- Go to Settings -> Mobile Networks -> Access Points, click the 3 dot menu and reset to defaults. This should load in the old apns-conf.xml data

Ideally, what this should do is load the device with the APN data pre-9/3 when things worked. As stated, I know nothing about CDMA (or GSM for that matter either) but the logs seem to indicate APN issues of some kind. There are RIL errors too, but not sure if it's related to possible APN problems or SIM/device issues.

Should be easy enough to see if any recent XML changes may be somehow contributing to your issues. The logs seem very noisy about having problems connecting, tearing down connections over and over, etc.
[RAZR HD Android Development] Zeljko1234:
Another idea, could you attach to APN (reach internet) when your phone is on 3G/GSM? Or in another way, do you have problems only when using LTE?

Strange is that even stock rom has the same problem... That leads me to SIM/Network.

And why you cannot flash CM12.1 anymore? What error are you getting? I had something like that months ago and was pretty painful to fix. You can find that crime story in this topic.

---------- Post added at 10:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:30 PM ----------

OK, finally had time to test DCT with new build. At first, everything was smooth then I've figured out that CPU works at max clock. Playing with battery mode and enable per apps profiles fixed that but soon after music started stuttering.

The same song (yeah, Canadian Cowboy Junkies :p) played with Noozy without single stutter. So looks like that DCT additional audio processing put higher load to CPU and kernel with interactive governor doesn't handle it properly. Changing to performance fixed problem with DCT but of course will drain battery and increase heat.

---------- Post added at 10:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:03 PM ----------

One or few changes in interactive governor fixed the problem. First core is scaling, second sleeping and DCT is still happily playing smoothly :fingers-crossed:
