Non-working sensors for sure is not a result of a "bad flash," i. e. a failed installation of a ROM.

It might be an issue with non-proper initialization or even support of said hardware, i. e. lack of driver of bad driver config.

[MENTION=6537821]Sheynar[/MENTION] Which apps are you using to test your sensors?

I'm using GPS Status & Toolbox mainly for GPS testing, but it also shows the ambient light sensor's readings. In CM12-20150322 which I'm running I can definitely say the ambient light sensor is "kinda working." I write "kinda" as the lux value doesn't steadily decrease when I cover it with my hands, but it's rather jumpy. Might be normal, though... I never actually checked that with a HTC firmware build...
[HTC Desire S] Sheynar:
I'm using "Phone Tester" app, and it says me "Waiting for data" in light and proximity sensors, but when i click on "Properties" near them i get information of its hardware vendor and type.

Yep. I've restored this app from TB, it's ok, but after reboot - errors :)

It seems like "our device old and our app new/cool" - don't understand ;) I deleted it. Download FB lite.

[HTC Desire S] Maranevim:
for some reason I'm not able to write on SD card... (apps in particular)

it happens on 31.03 nightly and the previous one.

i have tried to have permisions fixed as per android 4.4.4 but even though everything is fine. No app can change anything on sdcard

anyone have the same problem?

i did even clean flash with formating system etc and still same problem :(

EDIT:

for some unkown reason it started working after few reboots... dunno what was causing it

i had also editted premissions.xml, so that might helped

The latest nightly, CM-12-20150403-UNOFFICIAL-saga.zip, seems to be good in terms of setting up, internet connection, and others, with the exception on front camera FC. It is quite stable and smooth. Thanks Mustaavalkosta and all others for your efforts.
[HTC Desire S] kchaisu:
Hi Mustaalvalkosta, I have solved the front camera issue by installing Camera2.apk from CM-12.1-20150403-UNOFFICIAL-saga.zip using root explorer. It is just for your information in case it might be useful for the next nightly. Thanks.
[HTC Desire S] Mustaavalkosta:
Ok, that gives an opportunity to do code comparison between 12 and 12.1 which may or may not lead to something. I'll see if I have a moment to do that at some point.
[HTC Desire S] kchaisu:
Thanks, Mustaavalkosta. CM-12-20150404 nightly, front camera is now working.

Does anyone has WhatsApp calls working on this ROM?
[HTC Desire S] Mustaavalkosta:
Oh, ok. I didn't do anything after my last post so I guess this did it then unless something has changed from upstream:

https://github.com/OpenDesireProject/android_build/commit/01950d8be35e81d057bcb6677267d66102240703

https://github.com/OpenDesireProjec...mmit/d4316a63cc52c435aa155d1ab0845f95a95ed52e

I had a hunch that it could be about PIE since our legacy blobs are built without PIE thus sometimes breaking the compatibility with newer open source pieces when PIE is enforced. But since I don't have the device and haven't had much time to setup a controlled test case for someone to test I never got any verification for my hunch. :)
[HTC Desire S] SateshS:
Whatsapp calling option not working.. can't attend calls.. cant make calls. Can't give permission to whatsapp to make a call.
[HTC Desire S] iamsaadk:
Hello All,

First of all I am so thankful to all the devs who have worked on this amazing Rom!

Thanks alot like seriously! You guys are the best! :good::good:

I am currently on CM-12-20150329 nightly and its been a week and I faced like 2 or maybe 3 freezes in between a few apps, I had to remove the battery to restart my phone to make it work again.

Anyways Front Camera doesn't work (I don't use it that much so that's not a problem ;))

BUT Whatsapp calling doesn't work for some unknown reason? Does any one has any solution for this? Whenever I call someone from whatsapp it only rings once and the call is dropped automatically!

Thanks once again :D
[HTC Desire S] kchaisu:
Thanks Mustaavalkosta. Clean flashed CM-12-20150405 Nightly; front camera is working fine as well as previous nightly. It could be the problem as you mentioned has been solved. Thank you.
[HTC Desire S] NiXEGaming:
Allrighty then,this rom is ready for a daily driver who does not use bluetooth. Calls work, front cam works, su works. Ill be testing some more later on, i have to get finished with school, and my finals are closing in. Yes,im 15 years old.
[HTC Desire S] cavalier3003:
what do you mean by "who does not use bluetooth" ??? bluetooth may cause any problem?

[HTC Desire S] Sefy:
I hope someone here can assist, i've been trying this ROM/Gapps on my spare Desire S and I keep running into the same issue that I don't see reported. First Installation Boot, works great, everything responds good and seems to be perfect, then i reboot the phone and all settings get lost and internal storage is full.

I've tried Mounts2SD and S2E (only works upto CM11), and the same thing, after a reboot, everything goes Kaput!

Any suggestions? :(

NOTE: CM11 on this phone working perfect!
[HTC Desire S] Mustaavalkosta:
Check in TWRP that your partitions are either EXT4 or F2FS.

Go to Advanced Wipe and select system, data or cache partition and choose Repair or Change File System and you should see information about the selected partition.
[HTC Desire S] Sefy:
They are on EXT4, should I change to F2FS ?
[HTC Desire S] Mustaavalkosta:
Nope, just making sure you are not using legacy versions of EXT filesystem that was used during some HTC stock ROMs.

Does this happen if you only, and I mean

only

, install ROM?
[HTC Desire S] Sefy:
As i've mentioned, this phone runs CM11 without an issue, it's just CM12 (and 12.1) which keep losing the configuration after a Reboot...:eek:
[HTC Desire S] Mustaavalkosta:
Well, that information doesn't help much here. Not everyone is experiencing this so it's likely something that you have done that triggers it thus start building it up step-by-step starting from stripping everything else than the ROM itself. If that works then you can apply gapps and see what happens and so on.
[HTC Desire S] Sefy:
I never tried installing just the ROM, but i can give it a try (the gapps I use are just the most mini that gives the Play Store).
[HTC Desire S] SateshS:
Any update on whatsapp calling feature??
[HTC Desire S] NiXEGaming:
Memory leak,probbably,i k ow that the build from april 6th does not have this issue.
[HTC Desire S] Mustaavalkosta:
Nope and I don't even personally use whatsapp so I don't even know what's that about.

Can't flash CM12 ROM

Hi guys,

I've got a problem that's stoping me from sleep since thursday.

Steps that I took are:

-unlocked my desire s,

-downloaded newest CM12 from your repository(ofc version for desire s),

-installed newest version of TWRP

but every time I try to flash the CM12 ROM. I'm having an error:

"could not detect filesystem for /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.2/by-name/system, assuming ext4 mount: failed to mount /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.2/by-name/system at /system: No such file or directory unomut of /system failed; no such volume."

I don't know how to fix it? Any ideas.Please Help me!

(Just for the record I've installed CM11 earlier after editing "asserts" in META-INF and it was working good)
[HTC Desire S] NiXEGaming:
If you recently dropped your phone,youll have to wait. I did that too. Dont worry
[HTC Desire S] Mustaavalkosta:
What's "newest version of TWRP"? I bet you don't have the unofficial one by jrior001 if you are getting such error.

I tried to install twrp via fastboot but it was rejected.

Do I need to unlock bootloader to install twrp?

My hboot version is .98 and I'm currently using CM 10.1

When I tried to unlock bootloader with HTC dev tool It failed to get identifier token.

When I tried to use revolutionary it returned Caroline failed, but had this to say: entation fault.

[HTC Desire S] Saf98:
Your s off Idk if flashing via fastboot works it does when I want to flash recoveries. Try flashing from recovery then.
[HTC Desire S] ooscrewyou:
The problem is I can't install twrp which is required to install CM 12. I'm currently using clockworkmod recovery.
[HTC Desire S] vojtah1:
install some other ROM since you have a recovery than you can flash twrp using flashify or so.
[HTC Desire S] ooscrewyou:
I've successfully installed twrp using flashify. Thanks. Ready to flash CM 12 now.
[HTC Desire S] ooscrewyou:
took like 50 minutes to boot. Now it's optimizing apps...
[HTC Desire S] qd42:
If you was able to install clockworkmod then it shouldn't be a problem with twrp. Maybe you are using incrorrect recovery image, do you download your one from here http://downloads.codefi.re/jrior001/Saga ?

Performance settings

I installed 20150413 version. Thanks for everyone involved :highfive:

It feels a bit slugish at times, in the apps it seems to stall at times (e.g. Candy Crush :p)... Any suggestions about performance settings, for general use :confused:

What CPU governor is best for our device? I was trying smartassV2... Minimum 245Mhz, Maximum 1305Mhz (our CPU is 1Ghz, so I would say above that can be more dangerous)

What about I/O scheduler? I have row...

In Developer options, should enable Force GPU rendering or no?

Any other settings? :rolleyes:
[HTC Desire S] NiXEGaming:
First of all,dont go above 1350mhz. Smartass v2 is good,but ondemand is my choice. And for the I/O that would be fiops or deadline. *flies away*
[HTC Desire S] ooscrewyou:
I was using the image for saga.

The reason it failed to install via fastboot might be root permission.

The first time I ran flashify it failed to get root permission although my phone was rooted. I deleted flashify profile in superuser and ran it a second time successfully.
[HTC Desire S] Saf98:
Don't need root for fastboot.
[HTC Desire S] ooscrewyou:
What else might cause my phone to reject fastboot flash?

Hi Mustaavalkosta, I made a clean flash the CM-12-20150502 built and have faced the same problem as latest CM-12.1-20150501 built of which got black screen. In fact both builts did boot up because after leaving for some time Home screen button, go back screen button and others button showed up including sound volume button functioned. In addition when plugged in, charging light indicator showed up as well. My observation is there is a screen display problem or corrupted. Thanks.
[HTC Desire S] Mustaavalkosta:
Ok, thanks! I reverted the other recent display related change too that I was hoping would help with some app crashes. Both of them were untested as I'm not at home at the moment and my laptop isn't suitable for building Android.

(the prompt appears in all above mentioned working builds as well but there is not reboot after hitting "wait")

cm-12-20150514 has the same issue as cm-12-20150512

[MENTION=6171875]ugor84[/MENTION]

In terms of bugs, on Lollipop, Xposed is not fully working, which results in e.g. XPrivacy not fully working (bootloops, leaking supposed-to-be-blocked information). This is not a ROM bug of course, but something to consider when switching from KitKat to Lollipop.

In terms of performance, I had been using Flinny's CM10.1/CM11 builds a while ago but they appeared laggy to me so I reverted back to SVHD 4.0.4. The CM12 5.0.2 builds appear to be running much smoother.
[HTC Desire S] ugor84:
I decided to try the cm-11-20150509-UNOFFICIAL-saga + gapps-444-basis-20150508-1-signed, and I must say that for now it seems OK. Now we see the trend in the CM12.

But the lag that you have appeared with the CM11 or appeared shortly after days of use? :o

Regards
[HTC Desire S] Likort:
I don't know whether you should use the KitKat gapps on Lollipop, but if it works it works :good:. You can get the Lollipop gapps here.

I had been using those builds, maybe a few more:

flinnycm101_saga_21_1

flinnycm101_saga_22

flinnycm101_saga_24test2

Flinny 10.1 25b4

cm-11-20140122-UNOFFICIAL-saga-flinny-alpha3

The lag might have manifested after a few days of use but I am not 100% sure about the exact circumstances that made me revert to 4.0.4, I think aside from subjective performance issues it also had to do with OpenPDroid support not being present in each of his images.

Edit:

cm-12-20150516-UNOFFICIAL-saga has the same black screen -> boot loop issue as cm-12-20150512 and cm-12-20150514 do. I am looking forward to the next working release due to this changeset from cm-12-20150512:

As of currently, WhapsApp calls aren't working for me. When I call someone, it rings once, then cancels, while the person being called sees nothing. When someone calls me, I hear one ring, then it cancels, while on the caller side it continues to appear like it is still ringing.

Edit2:

cm-12-20150519-UNOFFICIAL-saga still has the same issue, attached a logcat

Is this ROM for Desire S S510E too?
[HTC Desire S] i23098:
According to this, it's also known as HTC Saga, so it seems to be the same. Looking at the picture and specs, seems the same as Desire S in gsmarena.

So, backup your phone and flash away :fingers-crossed:

CM12.1 and F2FS?

Hi guys.

Sorry that I have been silent for so long time, but I simply couldn't spend any time on this project due to personal and business reasons.

Now that I'm back I'm really very happy about the progress you made. Congrats to all involved!!!

I just tried to install today's (JUL-20) CM12.1 build, and as a prep I upgraded TWRP to 2.8.6.1. I converted my partitions to F2FS, and in the beginning it seemed it could work, but after correctly determining the FS type as "F2FS" for .../by-name/system only two lines later I noticed that it was suddenly "detected" as ext4?!

Why is this? Does the CM12.1 image not support F2FS for /system? (/data and /cache are on F2FS, but not /system, it's still on ext4... Otherwise everything seems to work fine...)

Thanks in advance for your help.

Kind regards,

Ralf
[HTC Desire S] kchaisu:
Just data and cache could be use on f2fs.
[HTC Desire S] ralfbergs:
Thanks.

Do we know why this is?

I know that with CM12.1 for the S4 /system can also be on F2FS, so it seems it could be a limitation of our build?
[HTC Desire S] Mustaavalkosta:
fstab is missing dual entries for system partition. OS side is likely fine if other devices can do F2FS on system partition. I can probably add the fstab entry.
[HTC Desire S] ralfbergs:
Hi Mustaavalkosta, why do we not just try this? :)

If you're willing to do it, please let me know when I can test, and I will then report my findings here.

Thanks!

Hi [MENTION=3382363]Mustaavalkosta[/MENTION].

Now that I'm playing around w/ that build for some hours I must say I'm very impressed with how stable and mature it is. Even the frontcam is working properly... ;)

Thanks much, we're getting there!!!

CM12.1: OTA update to 20150721

[MENTION=3382363]Mustaavalkosta[/MENTION], all:

I just updated via FOTA to the latest nightly, and boy, I. Am. Impressed.

Everything worked very smoothly, no hicup. CM automatically booted into recovery, non-interactively installed the new flash image, rebooted back into the system. The usual ODEX'ing ("Optimizing apps") took place on reboot, and then I was back in CM, but in the updated build...

Amazing stuff, guys. Thanks to all who made this possible!!!

Best,

Ralf
[HTC Desire S] Mustaavalkosta:
Actually this is more complicated with system partition because it's formatted with zip flash thus filesystem is kind of hard-coded in updater-script. I don't think it will be as simple as just adding dual fstab entries and I couldn't find any official CM devices with such entries either. It might be possible to switch it to either EXT4 or F2FS at build time but it would still be hard-coded to one of those and not be dynamic like cache/data partitions.

I'm not sure how it behaves with block-mode flashing but we are still using legacy way of flashing.
[HTC Desire S] ralfbergs:
Thanks, I understand (or at least a bit).

I think I will ask the S4 guys for advice, maybe they can give me some hints which you could then consider in one of the next builds? I think it could be helpful to have F2FS even for /system...
[HTC Desire S] Mustaavalkosta:
Yeah, that might be helpful if they have some hints as I'm having some personal issues AFK limiting my time spent with this project.

If you mean SGS4 with S4, official CM device tree is only supporting F2FS for cache and data partitions: https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_device_samsung_jf-common/blob/cm-12.1/rootdir/etc/fstab.qcom
