Okay, I've pinpointed the nightly where Android Keyboard in landscape mode only recognizes about half of the key area of the bottom row keys (spacebar, etc.).

On nightly #77 the keyboard still works beautifully, but from #78 onwards the issue is present.

Here is, according to Igor's page, whatwas updated in #78:

[B]ace: update prebuilt kernel (android_device_htc_ace)[/B]

Kali: I would suspect that this issue is related to those kernel changes, or what do you think?
[Desire HD Android Development] Kali-:
maybe your theme is broken?
[Desire HD Android Development] Fihlvein:
No, I did full wipes when testing. You can easily test this yourself, just press spacebar in landscape and see that keyboard does not react to lower part of the key (watch carefully).

Are you saying you don't have this issue? That would be very strange, as I can clearly notice the difference between #77 and #78... could more people try at least current spacebar behavior?
[Desire HD Android Development] Chezbel:
I rarely if ever type in landscape mode, but just for fun I tried it to test out what you are saying.

For some reason #77 can't be downloaded right now so I'm not able to compare it's functionality against my current ROM, which is the last version that Kali posted. Anyway I agree that there is a difference between portrait and landscape mode. I thought possibly the reason it worked better in portrait mode was because the touchpad extends down to the 4 bottom buttons; however, rotating 180 degrees also allows triggering the bottom row of keys by touching very near the bottom. In landscape mode your finger must be a littler closer to the middle of the button to trigger it.

It's not just an issue with the Android keyboard, it's the same with Swype and Better Keyboard Pro.

GUys i have quite a huge problem :( I have had this problem since 84 build. When i recieve a call it will hang up when i put it on my ear, when the screen turns off. I will also lose network signal when i turn off and on the screen via the screen lock button. I have tryed to enable keep screen awake on call but wont help, please help guys :( Thanks a lot in advance :) Btw i have wiped everything and installed cm7 from scratch including gapps :( And the problem persisted after the new install :(

Read post #4566 and follow it: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=917271&page=457, it should solve your problem. It's to do with the RIL.
[Desire HD Android Development] sigurd_LU:
This is because the HM RIL that has been integrated into the newer nightlies doesn't work well with CM. The problem can be solved by flashing a G RIL, look at this post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=14032498&postcount=4545

No offence, I was just clarifying why the nightly thread was going off on one of it's tangents with bug reports that weren't affecting other people.

In this context a Kang is, usually, a build made from source for personal use. Kang's are posted occasionally for wider use when the official nighlties aren't posted with their usual alacrity

Hi guys

I have tried to download a few of the latest versions from the link

None of them are working for me
[Desire HD Android Development] Chezbel:
Are you trying this link? I'm able to download #87, which is the latest.

[Desire HD Android Development] stony2k:
Just tested it, download works fine.
[Desire HD Android Development] phoenix2217:
Tried doing a fresh flash as I upgraded from #86 and wanted to make sure that wasn't the issue. Formatted, re flashed. Just got a call from my gf and about 1min 20s into the call i could hear her but she couldn't here me and it dropped. Force closed, signal bar went away and showed the O for no bars. The call was received with 3 bars.
[Desire HD Android Development] Morak75:
Great kernel update on last #87!
[Desire HD Android Development] BumAround:
Please explain will ya? :)
[Desire HD Android Development] Morak75:
Simply 'coz it 'powns' the kernel I had before, wich was 'powning' the previous default kernel. on overall performance. So dev must have done a good job with the update.
[Desire HD Android Development] sigurd_LU:
What exactly is better? Smoothness, quadrant score,..?
[Desire HD Android Development] BumAround:
I'm contemplating between Kali-'s version (posted on a special link on this thread before the release of nightly #86) vs nightly #87....:D especially some reports indicate the proximity (?) bug where call hang up by itself (see post #4639 & post #4644).
[Desire HD Android Development] Morak75:
Didn't try sensor yet.

Based on Antutu results (quadrant is too.. simple.. whatever).

Better 3D&CPU.

For smoothness, I dunnow why people are asking that, 'coz now almost everykernel makes DHD smooth, so how do you manage to see the difference between something very smooth, and something smoother than very smooth ? xD

Will be interesting to know from the dev wich thing he changed and what should it improved... to know if benchmark are all ****.

I use the lastet nightly. At the moment I'm not very happy with battery drain - more than 5% per hour! I don't touch the mobile, but lose a lot of batterypower.

The other problem is, that my carrier connection is broken very often :confused: My radio-ROM-version is 26.09.04.11_M2

Till now, I used build 71, there was all fine. I did a full wipe bevore install the new nightly ...

try flashing the G RIL for your radio, some of us are experiencing issues with the standard CM RIL (HM), which is resolved by using the G RIL. Or flash your radio to the recommended one

[Desire HD Android Development] Kali-:
for me there isn't a better RIL

I just pushed 131 HM to stop user replacing shipped htc ril which have know issue

unfortunately RIL fix is hexedit it, but something goes wrong with 131

so we have 3 solution:

1) if someone can send me a logcat with ril crash and dump (file path is showed on logcat) we can ask to fix 131 HM

2) revert to previous patched HM ril which is know to work

3) use G ril
[Desire HD Android Development] Nikola P.:
IMHO it would be best to go with lowest common denominator, in this case G ril, which AFAIK works on every handset/radio combo, and let everyone experiment and choose radio/ril combo which works better.

I looked at your log and it shows several crashes from the following 3 apps:

- tv.dailyme.android/.util.download.DownloadService

- com.google.android.location/.NetworkLocationService

This is only my guess, but I don't think GPS is your root cause... Maybe someone will prove me wrong and I'll learn something :)
[Desire HD Android Development] phoenix2217:
It looks like apps are crashing. Pretty sure tv.dailyme isn't part of the stock android OS? Is that an APP? Same from trueCaller trial? Just a guess.

[Desire HD Android Development] shadiku:
I really really hope it is. The AOSP browser is so much slower than the Sense browser.
[Desire HD Android Development] Chezbel:
Unless something changed the "buildbot" was being run manually so the builds occur when someone decided to do it.

EDIT: Since I'm at work, I can't post another KANG for at least 4 or 5 hours... maybe someone else will do that..
[Desire HD Android Development] ghostofcain:
You only need fiddle with the RIL if you have a problem with losing connectivity when screen goes off, usually manifests by losing a call when phone turns screen off. If youre not having any probs stick with stock.
[Desire HD Android Development] G1sanju:
I was trying to build one but looks like extract-files.sh has been changed to include libwebkitaccel.so for the webkit acceleration. This lib is missing from #87 so looks like a new one added. build is erroring out without that lib....

I've installed Cyanogen mod nightly, all good but I've only 2 problem

1) how to disable vibration when call?

2) GPS whit GMaps after 2 minute lost signal, close Navigator reopen it and work about 2 minute and lost signal again.

It's possible have HTC contact and message program to install?

Same GPS problem. Solution, run some other GPS prog like Google tracks to keep it on :)
[Desire HD Android Development] G1sanju:
lol, we all are here for sharing... :) but looks like we need to wait for an official one on as we require a propitiatory file libwebkitaccel.so, which is not there in latest nightly...

The props were updated about 11 hours ago, libwebkitaccel.so is in there - just grab a copy! :)

I built a kang this morning with the updated props but the camera is non functional so I've reverted to an older build
[Desire HD Android Development] Fihlvein:
I've investigated more about the issue where I claimed that on landscape, the lowest row of keys only recognizes touches from about 40% of the key (such as spacebar).

I've found out that actually the whole touchable area of the phone has decreased after nightly #78. I've done tests with two Desire HD's, one with CM 7.0.3 and one with latest nightly. Tests clearly show that our phones left and right edges are not touchable from the beginning of the drawable area of screen in any build starting from #78. You can test this easily at least by doing the following:

1) Open keyboard in landscape and slide your finger from the very lowest part of the screen towards spacebar, see how the spacebar is not touched until after middle of the key and not by close from the starting point of the key. So lowest row of keys are about 60% harder to hit than they should.

2) Keep the phone in portrait in front of you and try to add an item by holding an empty area of very left or right end of the touchable homescreen area, see that the touch is not recognized.

It may be hard to see the difference in 2) as you don't probably have anything to compare with, but at least you can see 1) clearly. As I have two units of DHD, I can see the differences easily. If you want a confirmation, make a nandroid backup and flash any build before #78 and see how you can do both of these without any issue.

I also installed latest nightly on the other phone I have which had 7.0.3, and it immediately had these issues.

I guess if this issue is not dealt now, I'll wait for next stable and file a bug report. It doesn't really bother me in anyway else bun writing in landscape mode because of half working lowest row of keys causing misspells.
[Desire HD Android Development] inertiax3:
Same problem here, I usually miss the space key when typing in landscape.. it also happens with 3rd party keyboards, not only the stock one
[Desire HD Android Development] Fihlvein:
Yeah, I also tried 3rd party keyboards until I realized it's not a keyboard issue, but a touchscreen issue.

As earlier said what changed on nightly #78 is among other things, kernel changes by Kali, but I think Kali hasn't investigated this issue yet. I could be wrong.
