Yeah, I saw that too.

This is a quote which seems very useful on the options we have now. I'm going with option 1.

1. Forget about it. Stick to GB or buy a newer device. Simplest solution.
2. Continue to pressure on Qualcomm for release. Almost no chance to success.
3. Try to hack around GB's libs, writing stubs etc. No one succeeded yet.
4. Reimplement OMX IL by ourselves. LOTS of work, high programming skills, lots of time to code, reverse engineer QDSP5 protocol etc. Can take too many time to finish, most will abandon platform before we get any release.


Thanks divanikus.

I always the performance governor. But what I think is happening (haven't seen any logs or anything) but on YouTube I think the tmp cache may be fludding over for the buffer. This explains why YouTube streams fine for a while, then starts lagging a small bit when buffering then just lags a bit throughout the video.

Eventually it just totally fluds and cases the system server to crash and your phone restarts.

Again I can't be bothered to take logs over an extensive period of time like this so I can't confirm it. Just an idea.

Stop guessing, it doesn't solve any problems. It is a file descriptor leak in the network stats.

There will be no release of RC1. I've restructured the whole repository to share common code and created a marvelc tree. The plan is also to share the code with HTC liberty and cacha. Currently there are some problems I'm not sure if this is related to the repo restructure or CM tree. It needs some time to sort it out.

I have a new hobby of playing around with build.prop and noticed wifi.supplicant_scan_interval= is set to 15. I belive that that might be causing baterry drainage for some users. I dont know if its intentional or a typo, I might be totaly wrong about what it does too.

If you have wifi tured on and it isn't connected to a network it will scan for networks every 15 seconds. I don't see why this should drain the battery. Turn wifi off if you don't need it.

To be a little bit more specific it's if you have wifi turned on, not connected to a network AND have an access point saved but not in range, it'll scan every 15 seconds

If you want to connect to a wifi and turn wifi on, you will have to wait 3 minutes to actually find it. This is not really what I want. Feel free to change it.

Or you could just hit menu > scan ;)

Hello modpunk,
Great work and this is a daily for me. My 1 remaining issue is:
http://code.google.com/p/cm9-wildfire-s/issues/detail?id=3
I have tested Alpha1,2 and 3 and Bluetooth stops deep sleep for some reason and I don't know how to troubleshoot this, or check whether the wakelock settings have been applied to my phone.
I have done a fair bit of testing and I certain its the bluetooth and not an app or something else. Is there anything I could provide to help?
Thanks in advance.

    Preamble

    I've been working on a CM9 port for the HTC Wildfire S since January 2012. After 5 month of work this is the first ALPHA release of the ROM. Neither CM9 is stable yet nor the HTC Wildfire S (Marvel) port is complete. Most of the features are working but it still needs bugfixing and polishing. We would like to improve the code and get as much as possible upstream.

    I have to thank alquez who ported CM7 for the HTC Wildfire S. His work was a good starting point for CM9. Also thanks to Tobias Droste who was working with me on this ROM. Tobias we finally made it!
    I also have to thank WinSuk and s0be working on CM9 for the Liberty. We worked together with those guys to get CM9 going. We will continue our collaboration in future.

    Information

    This ROM has been developed on a HTC Wildfire S A510e (European version). I suggest to use baseband version 47.23a.35.3035H_7.53.39.03M or newer. Others should work too.

    It should work on marvelc and marvelct, but is completely untested. You need to provide dmesg if something is not working here. It should be possible to get the previous dmesg of a failed boot from your recovery.

    This ROM is far from being finished, it can include a lot of bugs and can destroy your data. Use it at your own risk!

    Reporting Bugs

    If you want to report bugs please read THIS HOWTO first. Please try to provide logs if you see errors (logcat and dmesg). If you don't know how to do that check google or ask people here to help you. Don't contact me directly.

    Enabling logcat Logging (Windows HOWTO: How to logcat like a Pro!)
    adb shell dmesg
    How to use strace?

    All bug reports should go to the bugtracker.

    If you think you find a bug take a look at the bugtracker first. Check if it already has been reported.

    Download

    You are storing very sensitive information on your phone. You always have to be careful what ROMs you flash and whom you trust. If you don't trust me then don't use my ROM or compile it from source by yourself.

    The ROM will be gpg signed with my key 0xF33E3FC6. You can verify the ROM with 'gpg --verify marvel-cm-9.0.0-rc0-unofficial_rom-alpha0-signed.zip.asc'.

    See https://www.torproject.org/docs/verifying-signatures.html.en for more information.

    You can download the ROM here.

    This ROM is not meant for daily use!

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Q: How to flash the CWM recovery?
    A: Download the zip file for your phone and rename it to PG76IMG.zip and place it on your SD card. Then turn the phone on and boot into hboot. You can do that if you turn the phone off. Press the volume down button and hold it and then press the power button. The device will go into hboot and hboot will detect the zip file. It will ask you then to flash the recovery.

    Q: Which radio version should I use?
    A: I suggest to flash RUU Update Marvel S HTC_Europe_2.26.401.3 if you have S-OFF with XTC Clip

    Q: Do I need to install Google Apps (gapps)?
    Yes, you need them. You can get them from here. I suggest to use gapps-ics-20120317-signed.zip. People reported that the latest version (April) is a battery drainer.

    Q: How can I install more apps on my phone?
    Use A2SD/D2EXT/INT2EXT

    Q: My wifi doesn't work, how can I fix it?
    Android ICS detects your SIM card region (EN, US, AU, UK etc.) and stores it into some sort of Database file, which has all your Carrier info in it. If your SIM card (Carrier) is not correctly listed you can run into wifi problems.

    Download the Wifix app or install the Recovery Flashable ZIP from here. There is also a tutorial how to fix it manually.

    Q: Which GPS fix should I use for this ROM?
    You shouldn't use any GPS fix at all cause they don't fix anything or have wrong certificates anyway. Read my blog post about the GPS fix myth.

    Have fun!
