First Post from the xda-app on CM12; that should tell you today's build is ready to be severed as a daily driver.

Full review will up coming up tomorrow. ;)

Thank you [MENTION=3382363]Mustaavalkosta[/MENTION]
[Desire HD Android Development] Macedo_apk:
I'm using xda-app since nightly 0103 and never gave me problems. So, on nightly 0114 everything is ok? no problems?

[MENTION=3382363]Mustaavalkosta[/MENTION] do you know if the multi users functionality will be available soon? I didn't see any reference to that on cm git.
[Desire HD Android Development] Mustaavalkosta:
It needs to be enabled per-device. I can do that if people really need it.
[Desire HD Android Development] Macedo_apk:
It's not the most importante thing on lollipop, but it's a functionality that I would like to try. Doesn´t exists a way to choose if you want that functionality or not when you're flashing the rom? (possibly is a very dumb idea but I GUESS no one will kill me for saying it! :p)
[Desire HD Android Development] entony80:
I wanted to change the phone staying on an average band, such as 310 or 510 desire but saw the development, the DHD will be my daily companion until he dies : D: D: D when I can, I will try to help by reporting the various bugs. I hope in the next major release bugs manage to resolve them so as to deepen the test. Thanks to the whole team
[Desire HD Android Development] Phantom Shadow:
The device isn't encrypting on first boot so it won't be that. Well, it doesn't seem to have the forceencrypt flag, and I still have the option to encrypt my phone in the settings.

I did notice that in the zip file and before first boot the system folder only has the bin folder, and is then populated with build.prop and all other folders/files upon first boot. CM11 zip has it all already. Slow first boot could just be because it is extracting all the files?
[Desire HD Android Development] cyb3r.pr3dat0r:
Jesus Christ :eek: is this thread a dream?
[Desire HD Android Development] Mustaavalkosta:
Yep, I mentioned a few posts back that it's not encryption. My release notes were written before paulb_nl found that out.

Maybe but I think the following recovery function is already extracting those files directly to the block device. This is what I mentioned earlier as block mode flashing and there are already commit in review to disable it and use the previous zip file structure: http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/78370/

block_image_update("/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.2/by-num/p25", package_extract_file("system.transfer.list"), "system.new.dat", "system.patch.dat");

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_bootable_recovery/blob/cm-12.0/updater/blockimg.c#L254

I don't know C very well so feel free to correct me if I have misunderstood it.

I'll see if disabling that or odexing helps with the boot time and investigate it more thoroughly as my spare-time allows. Every theory this far has been just a theory. ADB auth didn't allow checking logcat while it was booting for the first time.

First Preview Build

WoW! :laugh:

Finally got my hands on the Lollipop after waiting and waiting... for (boot up time) - [Which I believe it will be fixed in the next couple of days].

I don't have much to say since this is still in its alpha stages. Just waiting and hoping for the best time. :fingers-crossed:

Thank you Musta and all those behind the build. Thanks for keeping our device through to the 4th Republic :p
[Desire HD Android Development] becks90:
Wow, didn´t really had hope that 5.0 getting to my loved DHD.

Thanks so much to you masters.

As it´s my only device i have to wait for first version with at least commom features (network, mobile data, maybe sound)

Thanks once more :) :good:
[Desire HD Android Development] Nihim:
Thanks guys for your work on 5.0!!

It will be interesting to see how it performs on DHD, since 4.4.4 already seems (to me atleast) like pushing the boundary.
[Desire HD Android Development] eliasf21:
First of all thumbs up to Mustaa! Cheers man for all your hard work. Really appreciated.

Got it running on my dhd, about 30 minutes on first boot. Since its not my primary device will have the opportunity to do tests easily.

Appart from the issues already stated I can't seem to find any settings for the quicktiles and some of them (location mainly) don't work all the time on keypress and when they do it takes a couple of seconds to show the change. Also rotation does not work.

Managed to install supersu beta v2.27, worked like a charm... Also got pa_gapps-micro-5.0-ALPHA1-20141117a to install.

General feeling is a lot more laggy than CM11 but eh, the progress is enormous considering...

Keep 'em coming!

Linux 2.6.x Kernel is present on Android 2.x.x

With Android 4.0.x ice cream sandwich Linux 3.0.x kernel

Since Android 4.1.x jelly bean Linux 3.4.x kernel but we have on dhd Linux 3.0 kernel, maybe because of incompatible ion drivers?

Dialer and Contacts apps crashes when i'm trying to import contacts from sdcard. Waiting for the stable version, and thanks for this alpha release, it's awesome)

p.s. sorry for the grammar mistakes
[Desire HD Android Development] dijonemon:
I got this plus the CM12 gapps working fine last night (first boot with GApps included took about 85 minutes)

Few things I've noticed so far:

- Cannot select MTP manually as the screen instantly disappears. Got round this by using Mount USB inside TWRP.

- Google Search will not install - not sure if this is clashing or caused by gapps installer.

Otherwise, much faster than I was expecting. The phone isn't my daily driver so the bugs don't bother me much... I'm just delighted to see Lollipop on a device I bought with a very buggy FroYo!

Thanks again :)
[Desire HD Android Development] marknoll:
I think we all need to logcat for musta
[Desire HD Android Development] Mustaavalkosta:
No need for that at the moment. I have my own priority list for issues and will be debugging them myself. Trying to keep this under control. There are many issues and only a few hands to fix them. When we enter nightly build stage I'm probably more interested in minor and/or specific issues and logs.
[Desire HD Android Development] maxxjaxx:
Music app crashes too (Apollo)

---------- Post added at 04:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:04 PM ----------

even when advanced reboot is ticked under developer options to show various power button options, it doesn't work
[Desire HD Android Development] rjand:
I don't think there's much point in posting what didn't work as it is an early alpha and Mustaavalkosta knows that most things are broken.

This release is just too show that he is working on getting CM12 on our ageing device.

Keep up the great work Mustaavalkosta and let us know when you are ready for bug reports.
[Desire HD Android Development] buttie:
I've flashed it with 4ext, logs show some warning and flashing took some time but it worked. Although, unless madmax82 update 4ext, I will switch to TWRP eventually, it's definitely more Lollipop-compatible.
[Desire HD Android Development] nhanvn1111:
so lag

Hi Mus, I'm trying and feedling this room very lag. Thanks so much about new room.

:oDesignWebSG:o
[Desire HD Android Development] xda-dhd:
Why write about it?! :confused:

Work has just begun and it' s so obvious.
[Desire HD Android Development] Mustaavalkosta:
Yeah, I haven't even tried it on my tablet yet so I thought it's nothing but more load for ace but surely we can see how it performs. I'll see if I can enable it in time for tomorrow's build.

Edit: And I don't think it's possible to enable it like you described. I could be wrong though.
[Desire HD Android Development] Macedo_apk:
I thought in something like Aroma installer, when you can set a few things before flash ROM
[Desire HD Android Development] rjand:
If you read through the last few pages of this thread you will discover that the camera hasn't worked on the last 6 nightlies.
[Desire HD Android Development] Macedo_apk:
I used versions 0111, 0112 and 0113 and camera worked fine, actually works better than camera in cm11
[Desire HD Android Development] marknoll:
I would love that.
[Desire HD Android Development] Mustaavalkosta:
Ugh, busy day today figuring out this camera mess but it was worth it. I fixed a few other issues too because of it. For tomorrow:

Camera is working again (details).

Switched to saga's libgemini.so and libposteffect.so blobs because they don't give out errors. These are camera related but the latter had nothing to do with the mentioned camera issue. I'm not sure what's working better if anything but at least that blob loads fine now.

Using source built GPS HAL instead of prebuilt one which behaved badly although it worked. There were craploads of GPS related log entries even after all the UI indicators for GPS had disappeared and GPS was supposed to be off.

Added UA Profile and picture size settings for MMS. May or may not help with MMS issues.

Enabled requested multiuser feature.

Edit: If you have crashed your camera recently with the broken build it may cause camera app to crash tomorrow too. In this case go to force stop and clear data of Camera and Media Storage and crash should go away.

Our server had maintenance reboot today around 23:25 UTC which lasted a few minutes. All ODP services were unavailable during that time but they should be up and running again. (OVH status)
[Desire HD Android Development] Macedo_apk:
the encriptation error, for those who use f2fs, mentioned before will be fixed on the next nightly too?
[Desire HD Android Development] Mustaavalkosta:
No idea what's that about so no. Only issues that are reproducible with EXT4 in this thread. F2FS issues have their own thread: http://xdaforums.com/htc-desire-hd/development/f2fs-acecm12-lp-aosp-t2995418
[Desire HD Android Development] Macedo_apk:
I don't want to spam this thread but f2fs script worked fine in version 0113 but with version 0114 doesn' t work at all (dirty and clean install) ending in stuck boot. Because of this I assumed that was a problem with this version
[Desire HD Android Development] ryox70:
Small Request

okay so i have two small requests for the next build [MENTION=3382363]Mustaavalkosta[/MENTION]

-Nav Bar already enabled or an option in the settings to toggle it

-and the stock music player be optimized when nav bar is enabled... when i enable nav bar in build.prob the music player icons become really small and doesnt show
[Desire HD Android Development] aasifnasim:
first of all thanx for your all CMs

i used CM10, CM11 on my HTC Inspire 4g as a Desire HD

can i update my exiting ROM CM11 with ROM CM12 by following procedure

Download Nightlies

Put the file on SD card

Reboot to recovery

Flash cm-12-YYYYMMDD-UNOFFICIAL-ace.zip

Remember to reflash boot.img via fastboot if you have S-ON

No need to flash gapps as CM backuptool script should take care of them (results may vary depending on which gapps package you are using)

Reboot and enjoy

or should i flash it first then install

plz guide me
[Desire HD Android Development] rjand:
This are more likely to be upstream CyanogenMod fixes / mods than this ROM in particular.

Clean flash, i.e. wipe everything except sdcard, install ROM, install CM12 Gapps, link in first post, then reboot and wait about 30 to 90 minutes for the phone to start up properly. Once you get the logon screen, I would wait a further 10 minutes on your first boot, add the phone will be very busy and feel almost unusable. It should work well after that.

Don't forget to have a suitable recovery in use before hand. Link in first post again.
[Desire HD Android Development] Mustaavalkosta:
Yep, that's exactly how it is. Also navbar on ace can be considered kind of "hacky" thing because it already has capacitive keys to take care of navigation.

Oh, this reminds me that I should probably change first post to only recommend the latest TWRP since that's pretty much the only recovery that works at the moment AFAIK. :)
[Desire HD Android Development] aasifnasim:
i have 4ext touch recovery, can i go this recovery or install other wat u type in your first post

i.e is not in first post
[Desire HD Android Development] ryox70:
welll the captive keys dont have the multi touch feature for the screen pinning option but the nav bar does and pinning is a useful feature especially with snoopy people in your household...in all disabling the lights and the touch of the captive buttons and enabling nav bar would be pretty awesome and give the full lollipop effect...i think most people would welcome that change
[Desire HD Android Development] danvo01:
what's fixed in todays nightly? Camera is working? I think everything except camera in yesterdays nightly working. (Camera app doesnt appear at all) Really great work, Musta & team! Thanks!!
[Desire HD Android Development] rjand:
No, you need the latest TWRP recovery as mentioned in the first post in this thread, the link to it is in the first Q&A under the FAQ section. Here is the link for you http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2780164.
[Desire HD Android Development] aasifnasim:
with thanx

Update your recovery to supported one. See the list below.

TWRP 2.8.1.0 ACE or newer

CWM 6.0.5.1 ACE or newer

you mean one of them or only TWRP means i have to flash first recovery then perform all procedure......?
[Desire HD Android Development] rjand:
Can confirm camera app not installed error in today's nightly.

Just install TWRP, ignore CWM as it isn't up-to-date enough.
[Desire HD Android Development] pelopidass:
I have one question. Do I have to flash "ace_f2fs_fstab_script"? And if yes with this row? rom->gapps->script?
[Desire HD Android Development] rjand:
There is an option for User settings on today's nightly. I haven't tried using it though as I don't require it.

[MENTION=3382363]Mustaavalkosta[/MENTION], I know this is a feature request that requires upstream support, but is it possible to add a setting, or change the default SMS app to show the date that the SMS was sent instead of received? CM11 had that option.
[Desire HD Android Development] Mustaavalkosta:
Sadly, something else broke camera again. :(

https://bugs.opendesireproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10

It was working fine yesterday with 20150113 as a base when I switched libs and so on directly to system partition. Bad luck having the same feature getting b0rked just after one fixes the previous issue. :(
[Desire HD Android Development] Mustaavalkosta:
Please keep these F2FS related posts to its own thread. I wouldn't want to have to repeat this on every page.

Edit: And this is not just because some arbitrary decision to split the discussion like this. jrior001 has made the script so you get the best support from him. I'm following his thread too and I'll answer on his thread if I know an answer to your question.
[Desire HD Android Development] Mustaavalkosta:
Hmm, possibly if they haven't changed something under the hood that makes it impossible to get that information. I'm not that familiar with that app's code that I could say anything specific off the top of my head.
[Desire HD Android Development] ryox70:
still get camera FC in todays build i cleared data and force stopped app but still says couldnt connect
[Desire HD Android Development] rjand:
Are you sure you are on the 0115 build, I don't have a camera app in my app drawer and the camera icon is missing from Gallery?

If I go into manage apps, I do have camera listed there though.
[Desire HD Android Development] xdagee:
hey you know, one question at a time. there is more to it even before you starting looking at other functionalities. first things first. There should be stability and bug FREE ROM first even before other features comes in. Muti user support isn't something we should be looking at now. The most important thing is how stable it can become on your device.
[Desire HD Android Development] ryox70:
yea i am i flashed it this morning its 11:03 am my time...i have the icon i even downloaded the google camera apk but that didnt work either it worked on the 0114 yesterday

oh and it was a dirty flash from the 0114 build
[Desire HD Android Development] xdagee:
3rd Party Camera support

I have seen all those that has happened since yesterday. :rolleyes:

I don't understand why people are requesting for other features.

first things first guys... :)

Now I wanna find out if any of you had tried out other 3rd party camera apps & are they working?

The last time I did on 20140114's build I had a camera can't connect error which the bug cut across all camera apps or what?
[Desire HD Android Development] marek287:
File manager

There seems to problem with File manager (cm-12-20150115-UNOFFICIAL-ace). After changing "Acess mode=>Root Access Mode" phone freeze and reboots. I have tried clear data and cache.

I have noticed strange behaviour while opening "build.prop" file with Editor from the beginning of CM12. Sometimes it opens but sometimes not.

Edit: Changing Access mode => Prompt User mode phone reboots but it change to it.

Edit: With cm-12-20150116-UNOFFICIAL-ace.zip these issues seems to be solved!
[Desire HD Android Development] Mustaavalkosta:
Camera fixed, again. I had missed one proprietary blob while commonizing ace and saga blobs. You can fix it instantly with the following steps or wait until tomorrow:

Download https://github.com/OpenDesireProjec...n/proprietary/lib/libsurfaceflinger_client.so

Copy it to /system/lib/libsurfaceflinger_client.so

Check permissions (root:root 0644)

Reboot (or do this via adb in the recovery, it's safer method anyways)
[Desire HD Android Development] marknoll:
If they're that desperate for a camera, install one from the play store. There are a few that are add free.

---------- Post added at 05:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:31 PM ----------

I'm not even running this ROM yet. I'm still on cm 11. I'm patiently awaiting a stable release from musta.. I have patience and so should everyone else. I have faith that he'll correct all issues. Good job musta!

---------- Post added at 05:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:34 PM ----------

I was wondering musta..should these ppl with issues be including logcats, or is it still too early(like you mentioned before)??
[Desire HD Android Development] Mustaavalkosta:
Well, the best chance to get me interested is to fill a bug report in our bugzilla with logs and steps to reproduce the issue. I sound like a broken record asking for these already though so I don't think there's much more I can do. I'm already doing well over 10-hour days with ace. I'm not complaining, this is by my choice, but users could come to halfway with their issues if they really want to get those fixed. :)
[Desire HD Android Development] jonny-boy:
Thanks for the fix. Camera and the torchlight are working again.
[Desire HD Android Development] paulb_nl:
I thought it would be nice to see the Optimizing apps dialog instead of only seeing the bootanimation for 1 hour after a clean install so I uploaded a patch to CM gerrit. http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/84773/

This would prevent you waiting for 1 hour and realize its just bootlooping :)
[Desire HD Android Development] Mustaavalkosta:
Man, you are a gem! That's great idea especially for older devices! :good:
[Desire HD Android Development] Macedo_apk:
What was fixed/updated in the new nightly?
[Desire HD Android Development] xdagee:
Quick Update on todays nightly 20150116

In today's nightly,

Camera fixed

Whats New

New Theme Engine ;)

Screen capture button from the power menu

Invert colors option from the quick settings menu

Multiple accounts support

and more...

still digging through...
[Desire HD Android Development] rjand:
Time to full wipe and re-install. Can't get camera to work when dirty flashing, app doesn't appear to be installed. Installing manually doesn't work either. Everything else working well.

All working again! Good. A few more options available as [MENTION=4828873]xdagee[/MENTION] has mentioned, and camera working again. Quick control tiles has a few more options now and can be configured a bit, hoping to be able to add Sync option to it soon as in CM11.
[Desire HD Android Development] rjand:
For anyone who has been dirty flashing, after having to clean flash the 0116 nightly and install all the apps I had previously installed, I find this ROM to be a lot more responsive.

Kindle for instance opens about 3 times as fast and closes almost instantly. I would say the performance (in this app and K9-Mail anyway) is better than what I was getting with CM11.
[Desire HD Android Development] paulb_nl:
I liked that about upgrading that it shows its optimizing apps. Luckily it was an easy change :) It was merged yesterday so it should be in todays nightly.
[Desire HD Android Development] komikaze:
hello everyone, Firstly thanks Mustaavalkosta for CM12 , I am still surprised our old HTC phones are able to run newest android operation systems :)

and I wonder that if someone can answer my questions as below:

1) On CM12 (Androild L) is it possible to move apps to SD Card ?

(Some of my friend told me that we can't install too much apps due to not being able to move apps to SD card)

2) In regard to 16.01.2015 Nightly of CM12 or older ones , how is the camera speed , in terms of taking and prewing photo (speed )comparing to CM 11 ?( As I last remember, on CM11 after taking a photo , phone becomes too laggy about 30-50 seconds for me)

3) If something goes wrong or I want to go back any rom, will it be problem going back from ART to dalvik without any problem ?

4) Is there any difference on battery consumption in positive way with CM12 android lollipop?

(It was told that ART is battery friendly and shows better performance than Dalvik in theory)

And don't tell me to search before posting because I've already searched this tread but couldn't find my answers :)

Thanks in advanvce

I hope you all have a nice weekend :)
[Desire HD Android Development] Mustaavalkosta:
Nice! I also threw this into today's nightly. Maybe it saves some battery while it's booting up showing that new dialog. :) For myself the main reason for it was this though. Late nights in a dim room and LCD backlight comparable to a floodlight while testing custom RIL class with bootup after bootup... well, my retinas weren't too happy. :p
[Desire HD Android Development] Mustaavalkosta:
As long as you have a nandroid backup of your old ROM or you do a full wipe and switch to some other ROM, you should be fine. There's no conflict between ART and dalvik in this sense if you just start fresh or restore a nandroid backup.

Hopefully, someone else can answer your other questions because they are more about UX than technical things.
[Desire HD Android Development] pat99:
Answers:

1) You can transfer all possible apps to SD card since there is an option to install Apps on SD Card directly under Settings > Apps > ON SD CARD. Click menu and choose preferred location to Install Apps. But since our device is old age, i don't expect to handle all apps without lags,so try install as minimal apps you use on daily basis.

2)Clean Install on any ROM won't cause any issue, And this apply to CM12 as well, yet its in Alpha stage but in future build you'll get around 3-5sec of delay after taking one, that's normal.

3)You should be using latest recovery and backup of previous working ROM, you're all set.

4)On CM12 there is an extra option of "Battery Saving Mode" to limit the animation and overall core functionality, which consume less battery and improve overall performance and on screen time,especially when you're run out of battery juice.
