Can this be flashed using an older recovery manager i.e. RA 1.62? I haven't updated to 1.70+ yet
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] CSL00:
Definetly, ;) camera started to crash recently and only on WildHero when shooting films (will se if different cpu settings amend the problem) , taking pictures is working with every setting and every governor i've tried.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] riemervdzee:
Will check it out. The alarm is a bit buggy on all latest versions :-/

Won't be deving on this for some weeks very activly though. Have to catch up with school a little ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] r34c7:
Today, i've been listening to music and it's constantly glitching. I'm sorry for not having a logcat of the issue but i will try to explain it:

When listening to music it just stops and doesn't continue. It happens randomly, it can happen one time for three songs time, and it can happen three times only for one song time...

I am using your latest version - 0.4.6 with VillainROM 13.

Battery life is much better though, the suspend issues are gone.

Keep the good work mate, i appreciate every bit of the work you are doing :)

A beer check just arrived, use it on friday night... ;)

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] keyra74:
looks like it's not your kernel fault, i had this problem with nightlies from last few days even on wildfire.

tested latest on hero and wildfire, no more buggy alarm
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] riemervdzee:
Much appriciated my friend :) I'll make sure of it ;) Glad it is almost weekend

Hmm thanks for the headsup. Sometimes the alarm fails at sleeping though, so thought it might be related. Will have to check the sleeping-prob though
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shantur:
Confirmed, i faced this today, just made in time to office :p
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] riemervdzee:
Hmm I'm terribly sorry :S Which ROM do you use? and do you use the alarm function when the phone is powered off or something? (I haven't enabled this one in LV).
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shantur:
No worries, my office is cool. The phone was switched on whole night, and i remember it was connected to USB.

I am using WildHero 1.2.1
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] enlove:
很给力的软件,多谢了啊!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] riemervdzee:
Ehm, thanks? :P Sorry don't know any languages besides Frisian, Dutch, English and some Spanish ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] puppyko:
You had thanked him nevertheless :D

Ok..loosely translate, should be something like

"an excellent software, thanks a lot"
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
Just out of interest, can you use the allarm even when the phone is completly powered off? Will it power on just before the actuall time is should go off?

Gonna try that one XD
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sjknight413:
unfortunately you cant! i made the mistake of trying that once :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] riemervdzee:
I only noticed some code regarding to it. Maybe they meant the more general hardware term "alarm", sometimes it is poorly documentated.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] puppyko:
I think all smartphone that run on OS, be it symbian, iOS or Android, once the phone is powered off (that means totally shutoff with no OS running, just like using Windows PC), no alarm will ever work.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] riemervdzee:
Mwah it is possible, you just need an RTC (Real Time Clock) which boots up the system 5-10 minutes before the alarm should go off.

But probably they didn't have this implemented hardwarewise just yet.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
Yep did that to on 1.5, though the alarm was bugged on that one anyway

Anyway, I am now running this kernel on Floyo 1.2 and I am happy Riemer thanks again for your work :D Runs smooth so far and battery is nice to. Gonna do some navigating tomorow to see how that turns out.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Papuass:
Nokia E51 was capable of that, though.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] puppyko:
Hey, you're right on E51. I didn't know symbian phone is capable of doing that now. I just tested and confirmed the alarm did went off on my son's E71. (I had Nokia 6680 and SE P1 before but the alarm won't work when the phone's off).

Hmmm, wonder if any of the current android phone is also capable of sounding alarm when phone's off (perhaps with RTC built in?)

Anyway, looking forward to the next LV release. :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] whitealien:
I think I figured out how alarm is bugged. I noticed that if you enable flight mode alarm does not ring anymore. Seems that flight mode disables also all sounds, lol.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] riemervdzee:
This is with LV?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] whitealien:
Yes, your latest kernel from this thread and with erasmux Wildfire port.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shantur:
Another issue which i face daily, i am not sure it is related to android api, kernel or rom

I am a daily traveller in Underground Trains, i have seen the phone behave in weird ways once i get to underground.

As soon as the phone looses network

- It feels as is something has started eating CPU in loop. Everything becomes sooo slow.

- Even the visible app ( my Reversi Game ) gets killed and restarted again from time and again... as if system is out of memory or something.

- All CPU / Memory problem vanishes as soon as i switch my phone to Airplane Mode.

- Phone starts thinking i have inserted new SIM

- Google Authentication failed notification occurs and i need to re-enter my password to login back to Google.

I have had this with LV and FlyKernel and it occurs on almost all roms. Does anyone also face similar issues?

I know this is not LV issue, but in general could be a kernel issue for our hero?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Wupper:
Same here, when I'm at work my phone is in a steel locker (in a sort of concrete bunker). And when i'm finished working my phone is always empty (with LV 0.4.5).

Same with the visible apps.

Found that out yesterday :).
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] riemervdzee:
I can't reproduce this unfortunately. Could you check it out whether it gets this behaviour on fly kernel?

Well tbh I agree that the SMD code is messy (both from HTC and Google). I also did a test today and it seems that having a internet connection wakes up the phone quite a lot. When in airplane mode, for example, the battery is outstanding.

I will investigate the cpu-eating prob. But I can't fix the lag when opening up the SMS-card.

The last two findings of yours are strange though. Anyone else can post their findings on this?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] iHero96:
I can take photo on froYo but i can't on Gingerbread... Why??
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ggrammer:
Because baby jesus doesn't love you...lol j/k

:p
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] CSL00:
I have the same no-network CPU eating problem as rathore4u but my phone never lost track of my sim card and not once had to re-sign with google (both erasmux wildhero and cm7).

LOL

iHero96 try switching to ondemand governor and reboot, also disable "set on boot" option.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ChosSimbaOne:
Hi its a while since, but has been caught with alot of school stuff lately, so here goes. My problem is that when i boot, all my widgets on widgetlocker disappears, and i have to reconfigure.

I've provided logcat from shutdown and startup, hope that it will help figure out what the problem is. The logcat from startup is quite long i belive, so hope you will find something useful.

Another thing i discovered is that if i use the no lock screen feature in cm parts, its under tablet tweaks, then my widgets in widgetlocker, are not gone when rebooting.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] J.K Nilsson:
when using the latest 0.4.6 release along with elelinux 2.1 reloaded the bluetooth went fishing. Other than that the ROM was awfully fast when overclocked, I could get caught speeding while walkning. :D

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nikitosina:
Hi! Thx for your great work.

A lot a lot of russian users of your karnel wish you to make your karnel to define a camera on SalsaSense like 5 mpx camera, but not only 3 mpx.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
I think at the time, when I tested LV on WildHero, I did manage to get it to work with 5mp, but if I recall correctly its even less stable with 5mp, so I never published that. I still hope to continue my investigation of this issue in the not so far future, just a bit swamped with other issues at the moment.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nikitosina:
Will bee so good!Thx
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] elelinux:
@riemer

I have worked on the camera bug is now quite a while, has probably come a little closer to the problem,have made ​​a few changes and a different setup.

Tried to take pictures with both smartass and ondemand 264/518 MHz and it works fine,good if more people want to try this kernel.

http://www34.zippyshare.com/v/4385754/file.html

@riemer I will contact you regarding changes.

EDIT: In fact, the camera works really well now
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] riemervdzee:
Really looking forward to your patches :) Will test it asap
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] devision:
Tried ele lv 0.4.6.3 build with SalsaSense 1.3 - video not works, can't see any difference with lv 0.4.6 regarding photos (max 3 mpx shots in settings)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] elelinux:
I have only tried on my GB and there camera/video is working
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] JieeHD:
Yeah the problems with camera and video are problems with the ROM, It is a Sense port remember, it's surprising we even have a working camera.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] elelinux:
Just what I thought too. :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
Flashed this on Floyo, first picture it failed :( Its the same problem as before that the kernel failed to take the picture. I am sorry I am too lazy to flash your ROM now, but I highly doubt it is 100% stable there either. Try performance 518Mhz, in previous builds this helped me recreate the problem, but even this occasionally would refuse to crash....

A bit hard to address the fix itself without the code or details about it. Can you share you please share the code? Possibly this might inspire others as well?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] snah65:
Just tried the kernel on speedmachine V4 and also there was the camera problem...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] elelinux:
Have already send the changes and code to riemer by email,as I wrote earlier have only testing it on my GB but shall test on Speedmachine today.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] elelinux:
Now, I tried with speed machine, and operated it good to begin with, tried smartaas 264/652 and 264/518 then I switched to ondemand and when I did that it not work anymore :( ,well just continue working on the problem, but it works well for me in my GB :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] react1on:
Camera works great with cronosginger 2.2.4. Using ondemand goverment and 264/576 frequency I can take 5mp picture and capture "high quality" video. Thanks for your work!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] meisze:
Tried it on Elelinux-7.1.0-Hero-v2.6 . Using interactive 264/691 and camera works well but switched to smartass 264/691 and it not work .
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] riemervdzee:
Unfortunately I have the same instabilities, using smartass 19/691 5mp:

first attempt, it hanged when taking the second pic.

2nd: hang at first pic

3th: hang at first pic

Then switched to on-demand 61x-67x (x, as I forgot the exact mhz):

first attempt: hanged at 3th pic

2nd attempt: hanged at 5th pic

note between every attempt-row I rebooted.

I think you got lucky Esa, the changes you made are hardly effective I'm afraid :( Will e-mail you with a full detailed explanation.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] riemervdzee:
New experimental build:

http://www.multiupload.com/A1E7OLP41C

Could people test the following:

- Whether 5mp works under newer sense ROMs

- Whether apps crash again when unlocking the Sim for the first time.

Thanks in advance!

Camera should be a tad stabler. It responds quite nice. However not perfect...

For Eran and Esa:

Note not everything is pushed to github yet. Made some changes which are a bit rough.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gavtaylor:
will give it a blast on my phone in a bit, not tested a recent build, am still running 0.4.5 :-\

does this include the tweaks that @erasmux mentioned he has made?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
Do you mean maybe the changes elelinux made? I don't recall making any changes myself....
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] riemervdzee:
Ele you mean? :P Glad I ain't the only one who mixes those two up hehe.

If you read one post above the experimental build one, you see my test results with his patches. When looking at the source, the only what could make a difference is that he removed the debugging I added.

I've disabled this in the experimental build + I made some major changes to the RPC code (I finally got them to work). The older version stresses out the system way less, and has been included in the new experimental build. It should result in a more stabler camera.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gavtaylor:
Oops.. Yes I did mean @elelinux

Two lessons learned here:

1) proof read post before submitting

2) read previous posts before asking a question

:-P
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] react1on:
It seems like 'black screen' bug came back with latest update.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sotux:
I think this bug has never been fixed.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] whitealien:
Using:

- WildHeroWWE-1.2.1

- CPU @710/352 ondemand, screen off @264/264 conservative

- all animations disabled

- autokiller setup moderate: 30/35/40

- experimental LV kernel from post #853.

Camera tests.

Photo.At start it crushed after 4th photo, but now is working fine. Photo resolution is 5M, normal quality.

Video.Video default resolution is set to 640x480 which in attempt to make video will completely crash the phone. Setting resolution to Low 320x240 will work without problems. Also I think Hero was able to make videos at a little higher res, something 480x320. Still no way of disabling shutter sound or using digital zoom. After using camera, screen brightness will be set to max, which I think is HTC bug.

Another bug (or not).

I'm using my phone as usb drive. After a longer period without activity phone will automatically disable usb connection. I think it is related to phone going into deep sleep or something, I'm not an expert so, but at least default ROM does not have this issue. I'll try to catch a logcat when this happens.

Other than that battery life is really good, in general ROM speed is very good (after disabling animations) even during music playback. I could not reproduce alarm bug, it is now working fine even in flight mode.

No other unknown bugs found so far.

Thanks to all devs for this great work.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RCOO:
Tried the new test version on my Hero with SalsaHero 1.3 (with Sense 2.1).

The camera takes a picture. Then freezes. And I have to press Home to regain control of the phone. The picture doesn't get saved.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bikemaker:
re: test version

Not many testers so I'll throw in my 2 cents...I tried your test version the other day and it worked just fine at 5MP.:) I took 8-10 pictures in a row with no problems and it saved the pictures. I'm using SalsaSense 691/352 ondemand.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RCOO:
Can you tell me your camera configs? Mine doesn't work.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bikemaker:
re: camera

I'm not sure what I've changed since then, but it froze on the first picture when I tried it again. I wiped cache and dalvik and re-installed the test version (I might have re-installed the non-test kernal since I originally tried the test version) and the camera worked again for about 6 pictures before freezing.

I'm going to try a couple things to see if I can re-create what I did to make it work. I'll let you know how it goes.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bikemaker:
ok, I have been unable to reproduce the working camera. I must have just been lucky. I even did a clean install of Salsasense and I still couldnt make it work. Sorry.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RCOO:
I actually tried again, since I read the procedure you followed, and I forgot to wipe caches.

Still had no luck. The camera freezes and I have to press Menu, to leave the app.

At least video works. Kinda ironic. I always figured Video was more complex then Camera on phones...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] riemervdzee:
Wiping caches etc. doesn't help. It is probably a timing problem in the kernel itself (can't tell for sure what, if I knew I would've fixed it already! :P).

Lowing mega-pixels might improve stability.

Note that when changing, it might hang the camera. just kill it and re-open. Will hope to fix this one soon (probably a forgotten delay loop or so).

Hope I got more time after the following week though. School should end by then and finally got vacation :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] cs-cam:
Trying to modprobe the nfs modules results in the below. Not difficult to fix but I figure it's probably not intended so pointing it out.

<3>[ 1348.493896] nfs: version magic '2.6.35.11-Las_Venturas-0.4.1 preempt mod_unload ARMv6 ' should be '2.6.35.11-Las_Venturas-0.4.6 preempt mod_unload ARMv6 '

and cifs gives

<3>[ 1669.018035] cifs: version magic '2.6.37.6-Las_Venturas-0.5.0+ preempt mod_unload ARMv6 ' should be '2.6.35.11-Las_Venturas-0.4.6 preempt mod_unload ARMv6 '
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] riemervdzee:
NFS and CIFS should be included statically.

Where did you get the modules? Why you want to load them? (is something not working using these?)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] CSL00:
Tried the newest test version with SalsaSense RC1 and camera works with every setting I threw at it (governor,min/max frequency), so your kernel isn't the only at fault with camera issues (still can't take pictures with smartass and some frequencies on any governor that is not 'ondemand' with other ROMs)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sacpe25:
colors unlock.

Great kernel.

but when i try to unlock the phone with the off button the screen goes purple then gry with lines going up. please help
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
Try to set your minimal clockspeed higher.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] riemervdzee:
Trust me, it is the kernels fault :) On-demand works quite better aye, guess it has something to do with the delay code.

Anyway, I will probably move to buzz.35 kernel as base soon. It is much closer to our hardware than the cm-sources which are more armv7 orientated.

I hope to get a few kinks out of the current kernel, post a new build and then continue on buzz's.

edit:

Will have a quick look at it for the next release.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] timbohobbs:
buzz.35 kernel sounds sexy. Will look forward to that ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] riemervdzee:
Las Venturas 0.4.7 is out!

Check out the opening post for the links

Change-log Version 0.4.7:

Changing to different rpc address handling, should increase starting up time when unlocking sim

Fixes to SMD, just a tad faster memory allocation, less interrupts calling. Should result in more smoother system.

Camera 5mp fix for htc 2.2 or 2.3 ROMs. Although I recommend still using 3mp, the stability of 5 is unreliable.

Small fixes to backlight and screen-client code. Should result in less "funky-colours". If it still does, increase CPU freq.

Some changes to headset code. Not always detects the extra buttons though.

Some idle-code improvements.

Note that support will be a bit limited on this, as I hope to be running a nice build based on the buzz-sources soon.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] JieeHD:
Nice one riemer, counting on your kernel for my ROM atm, I might PM you later as I need to speak with you about something :).
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] riemervdzee:
Cheers Wupper :)

Thanks. If you want to contact me, better do it via gtalk or msn: riemervdzee@gmail.com
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RCOO:
Kernel seems to warm-up faster. The camera still doesn't work for me. Just freezes after taking the pic even on 3mp.

Thanks for your work though ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] f_padia:
out of interest, what is the buzz.35 kernel?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] JieeHD:
Well I would be guessing that buzz is the vendor name and if I'm correct then buzz = wildfire. So I guess riemer is saying he's gonna be using the wildfire .35 kernel as a base.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] whitealien:

I have put a script in /system/etc/init.d but it doesn't seem to run on startup. Is there any reason for this? Does this kernel support init.d scripts?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shinaipt99:
hi all!

I've installed salsasense and flashed lv 0.4.7 but no wifi. i followed the instructions but no luck... im getting crazy with this... can somebody help?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bikemaker:
shinaipt99,

I have seen your other posts in the salsasense thread and it seems to me that you problem has to be with your router. No one else is having the wifi problem you are, so if the wipe & re-install instructions others have given you didn't work it is either a hardware problem with your phone or a compatibility issue with your router.

I remember one time trying to connect a usb wireless adapter to my dlink router I had to press a button on the side that I had no idea was there. The rest of what I had to do is irrelevant since we likely are not using the same router, but I would suggest going through the troubleshooting steps for your router and see if there is a solution there that will get you connected. Routers have firewalls too, maybe thats the problem? I don't have any magical answers for you, it's a simple process of elimination.

Good luck!
