I appreciate the effort, but it is missing some key CM-isms at the moment. It's more like vanilla gingerbread than CM. I'm going to go back to the last CM6 nightly for now.

The few missing things from CM that jumped out at me:

- can't unlock with menu button

- power widget in notification area (huge)

- turn over phone to silence ringer

I know it's because they are still porting over froyo code and it will get better soon. Thanks again for the time and effort lithid-cm.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lithid-cm:
Eh effort? This is all cyanogenmod. Just compiled. If you looked at the code so far this is far from vanilla already. Thanks though.

Has your 3g been extra wonky today? My phone ( on CM 6.1) like to drop to 1g several times anyway, but today it drops to 1g whenever I try to do anything with the phone.. have to go airplane on/off to get 3g back and its rather annoying.

Was just thinking maybe sprint is iffy today or something
[EVO 4G Android Development] blackroseMD1:
A little off topic, but not sure if it's been posted yet.

[EVO 4G Android Development] gimmetaffy:
I'm seeing the same thing. Just started this morning.
[EVO 4G Android Development] fearphage:
Well I don't have the space to compile it. I know where the code came from but you're taking the time to compile and share it. Thanks. What I meant was the key things I use/want are missing.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Rippley05:
Ahh ok, prolly a sprint deal then.

Thanks for the reply.

@Lithud, keep up the good works mayne, nice touch on the new thread title lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] PhantomPhreak53:
haha ok :cool:
[EVO 4G Android Development] lithid-cm:
Some new gingerbread commits were just merged. Compiling and seeing if the build boots this time. It will be a few.
[EVO 4G Android Development] EJerVJerO:
I am right behind ya! :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] PhantomPhreak53:
lithid, do neither of your cameras work with 004?
[EVO 4G Android Development] info[]box1:
Well I have HW003 and camera is inoperable. Im sure a fix will come soon enough.

Btw.. The battery life on this build is remarkable, also my Evo didnt even hiccup today. No lagg whatsoever today I'm still amazed at the performance. I have urge to flash right now, I dont want this ride to end.

energy and persistence..!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] a2k:
I'm on the newer 004 hardware and can confirm both front and back work.
[EVO 4G Android Development] PhantomPhreak53:
Oh that sucks! I'm on 0002 and my back camera is working great and my front camera is working but it's upside down. haha
[EVO 4G Android Development] :
I'm on hw3 and it works for both front and back, both right-side up.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lithid-cm:
How is that? According to HTC the new kernel isn't released yet. Some 003 and all 004 are effected.
[EVO 4G Android Development] thedarksavant:
I've seen discussions on the CM thread that claim some 003 hardware versions have the "new" camera chip and thus are broken while some 004 hardware versions have the "old" camera chip and still work.
[EVO 4G Android Development] info[]box1:
If you guys got the magical kernel to make the camera work on H/W.0003. Please post a link or point me in the right direction.
[EVO 4G Android Development] iomthd:
Haven't posted much but this is a pretty sweet build. Thanks for the tips on building Lithid! Much appreciated.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lithid-cm:
Some 003 versions work fine. Others don't who ever said that they have 004 and both are working is a complete idiot and doesn't know what he/she is talking about. Maybe he is using a stock sense rom with the stock sense #15 or #17 kernel. Which both work fine. But HTC has yet to release the code for the new chips.

http://developer.htc.com/

There is one froyo source towards the bottom. we are looking for the second froyo release. That on you see on top is eclair... HTC is alittle behind on following the rules.
[EVO 4G Android Development] a2k:
Lithid, stop being such a rude F*cking @$$wipe! I do have the 004 hardware and earlier today, I launched the camara app and managed to somehow switch it to the front and snap a picture which was saved to my SD Card.

HOWEVER, I will correct myself in saying, I just went back to the camera app and the application now FC's. Nonetheless, it did work earlier today as I did snap a picture, utilizing your build from last night, nothing added.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lithid-cm:
I may a rude apple (holding tongue) but I was correct. Yes there is a hack to simlink the front cam which would theoretically work. Since the front cam didn't change only the name did. Let me look through some notes on how to actually do what you did the correct way. That is of course you want to.
[EVO 4G Android Development] a2k:
You were correct my friend, interesting. It was the first time I launched the Camera app and if I remember, it was one of the on-screen settings which I used to switch to the front camera and snap the picture.

But I do believe, the back camera was active before my doing so, but I did not snap a picture with the back one.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lithid-cm:
I am sorry but you must have been mistaken. I have been working on it for a about a month now... need the source
[EVO 4G Android Development] a2k:
Any luck on the 12/27 build?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ace586:
I assume the same would be true with CM6? I've got an 0004 Evo that I just got last week, running CM 6.1.1, and both cameras work flawlessly. Results seem to vary on a case-by-case basis, from what I've read in different threads. The only consistent thing that I've noticed is that those with 0004 hardware that flash a different kernel after flashing a ROM seem to report broken cameras. Not scientific enough to claim causation, but there does seem to be correlation.

In any case, if stock CM6 works for the camera on an 0004, I don't think that it's entirely implausible that stock CM7 might work as well.

That said, I'm not ballsy enough to try it myself. Waiting for some additional confirmation before I make the Gingerbread jump.

[EVO 4G Android Development] lithid-cm:
0004 and Cm at all doesn't work... the 0004 only work with htc stock kernels #15 and #17. You as well must be mistaken. Never has the camera worked on this 0004 without one of those two stock kernels. This is also why NO other kernels work according to you because the new source isn't released yet to build off of.
[EVO 4G Android Development] twiz0r:
Yes other people are having that issue. I forget why that issue is occurring

Swyped from my cyanogenized and gingerbreaded EVO
[EVO 4G Android Development] lithid-cm:
Its also stated in the known issues to be flaky.
[EVO 4G Android Development] illogos:
6.1.1 worked fine for back camera on my 0004 evo.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lithid-cm:
Whatever you say. If you have new hardware which is related to the 0004 versions and early 003 versions the camera doesn't work. Unless by the grace of Neptune HTC switched back at the end of this 004 cycle. Its funny though that there are hundreds of 004 users that its broken and doesn't work... now all of the sudden the jesus phones are coming out of the woodwork.
[EVO 4G Android Development] info[]box1:
Flashing to gingerbread wont permanently disable the camera etc. Once to flash back a compatible rom or nand restore *all is good.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lithid-cm:
Build are currently broken. Will try again when there are more updates from CM.
[EVO 4G Android Development] illogos:
Just tested your 2nd build from last night. Front camera works but is upside down. Back works fine. Stock kernel from the build. Not trying to give you a hard time. Just seems that if some hw003 have new camera that some hw004 have the old one I guess.
[EVO 4G Android Development] HashBrownJM:
Is it worth flashing one of the two kernals from the second post or does the stock stuff work well?

EDIT: Just flashed the stock precompiled one. Seems good, little laggier than I'd care for. Not quite the daily driver, but I liked seeing that 2.3 has to offer.
[EVO 4G Android Development] twiz0r:
That can vary. I would try savage. That's what I am running currently. I was having issues with it but I reflashed and is great now

Swyped from my cyanogenized and gingerbreaded EVO
[EVO 4G Android Development] info[]box1:
Performance and battery life on the preexisting kernel is outstanding. Well at least for me it is.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jay0911:
Same here for me
[EVO 4G Android Development] ace586:
Thanks, that's kind of what I assumed. However, since the whole broken camera thing seems like a phantom issue, I kind of got superstitious about it. "Maybe it's a fluke, and if I leave it alone, it'll be ok..." Foolish, I know.

But yeah, might give it a whirl later on, or maybe tomorrow. I'll let everyone know if the camera still works.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ace586:
No need to be snide. I understand that as a dev you've had a lot of experience with this, but the phone is sitting right in front of me. I assure you, it's 0004. I checked quite carefully and read up before I flashed because I got tripped up by the issues with Unrevoked and HBoot 2.10 at the beginning as well. I went back, allowed the OTA firmware update in hopes that it might clean up any damage, and then rooted it properly and flashed CM6. I checked, and my RSA keys are still there for WiMax as well. It seems that a lot of the issues that are floating around out there are very inconsistent.
[EVO 4G Android Development] info[]box1:
give it a second to settle in suggest 1-2 battery pulls. seriously im running the stock cm7 and i have no lagg i flashed about this time last nite. all os's need time settle in really bout 2-3 days and a few reboots.

I'm having the same issue ChiefSpoonS
[EVO 4G Android Development] xdp:
I'm interested in downloading this source and building it but also interested in editing the code eventually. However being a Windows/Visual Studio user, I'm curious what people use to work on CM source. Eclipse? But not for building? I had aspirations of getting this to work with something like Eclipse + EGit on 64-bit Windows, but it looks a little too complicated to work with all that.
[EVO 4G Android Development] luisrcastillo:
I think the CM team uses eclipse for development
[EVO 4G Android Development] lithid-cm:
eclipse for majority of it. Some might prefer some other program.
[EVO 4G Android Development] xdp:
Thanks. There are Git implementations for Windows, but I'm guessing there's no real way to use repo on Windows, or any way to build? I see the Android source page says building under Windows is not supported, but I wasn't sure if that meant "we won't help you with it" or "it's not possible". Do you think the performance of building within a Linux VM would be totally unacceptable? I'd prefer that to dual booting or getting another machine.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sarahlegs:
Guysguysguysguysguys. This camera issue has been discussed a LOT before. Use your friendly search buttons if you need more info. I'll get you started:

First thing: Lithid is not one of the currently 33 programmers that contributes code to the CM git repository, so please don't expect him to answer questions about coding progress.

Second: The displayed "0004" or "0003" hardware version of the phone is not an indicator of what camera part is used internally, and is neither the sole correlation nor causation of camera drivers not working in CM6 or CM7. The reason, a switching of camera parts that is not directly reflected in the "Hardware Version" number, has been discussed and Cyanogen has actually attempted to code a work-around. He got partway there (with a little of my help in finding some Samsung datasheets), but the crux of the issue is, as we have mentioned many times in the past, that HTC has not released the necessary kernel source, and hence drivers needed to handle the Samsung s5k3h1gx camera part in question.

Third: Toast and Shinzul may be able to knock out a workaround on this once they finish WiMax efforts, but that is not expected to happen immediately. If you are a coder and you would like to help, by all means get a git account, communicate with Steve, JUMP IN and work on this. The code is still there on the code review site as it has been since late November, waiting for anyone who is able to poke around with:

http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#change,690

http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#change,689

Let me get you started where Steve left off:

Programmers, please, by all means, jump in.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lithid-cm:
Many people use vms... That would be fine. Just understand that the initial compile might be awhile since its sharing resources.
[EVO 4G Android Development] xdp:
Great, thanks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] TheMemphisE:
I'm sure that there are advantages to skillfully uses a vm ( I only ever sucked at it when trying to figure out some Ubuntu bugs in windows before partioning,copying files, installing GRUB,etc. ), but I think the simplicity of install offered by WUBI installs of Ubuntu, coupled with the full speed OS give it an edge over a vm environment.

Of course, I am sure many VM users would be keen to disagree. An Ubuntu install today is just very easy to do and doesn't even require partitioning. To me, it just seems like the path of least resistance. I am likely overlooking windows exclusive development tools, or some other virtue afforded by a VM.

....<.< …>.>……… Ubuntu Linux > Windows .....……… *runs away*
[EVO 4G Android Development] :
The big cost of using VMs is the disk access. VMware loses a lot of performance because of the journalling filesystem. Faster drives make this more tolerable.

If we upgradqe to the latest build is there any reason to install the stock kernels? They are already in the latest build right.?
