@dzo: is there any possibility to fix notification of an incoming call, during a call? In ver.2.08 that was corrected, but in latest version, this problem is back again.

in which folder I have to add the ringtones?

so far I've always been in the folder ringtones.
but they are no longer displayed in the settings under ringtones.

with the sound notifications for the same.

what can I do? the tones are very important to me because it is a special, which I also hear ...

do not ask ... :(

Finally, I had worked 2.08, then at least the sounds, ...

I don't have echo issue with kerneltest4. But i noticed that multitouch is a bit of a mess. Can't properly zoom in/out images and when using browser. Multitouch tester and ICS built-in pointer location output the same behaviour, just like reported earlier.

2.10 & kerneltest4

READ the first topic!

There's new aurora version (2.10) and a new kernel for Aurora (kernel4).

Regards and please READ!!

You're using a very old kernel (for aurora 2.08). You have to use the latest kernel for aurora 2.10.

Put them to the /media/ringtones and /media/notifications

It works on me and I'm using 2.10

I found a minor issue/bug its not very important i know at this stage, but here it is: when i pick up a call it appears the message icon in the menu, but we dont really need it at that moment. I think its better put the message icon in the unlock phone menu, when we want to unlock the phone and go text. Just an idea...

at the moment all my previous problems have disapeared... im using 2.10 with 3.0.8 kerneltest4. I will make more tests.

Great work dzo.

Thread Cleaned

I have cleaned the last few pages of all off topic posts and the responses. Lets keep it on topic from now on. Respect the developers, if you have a problem with a developer, try a different ROM. Dont start bashing developers, there time and work is much appreciated on XDA developers, people moaning, is not!​

I hope it is helpful.

+1, I have the same problem.

Another thing, I can't save my ringtones and notifications sounds through settings menu, I placed them in /ringtones and /notifications, on the sdcard, respectively. When I reboot the phone I have the predefined ringtone and notification tone. Am I doing something wrong? I read somewhere that I have to put them on /media/ringtones and /media/notifications, but in the sdcard or in other place?

thanks

I have not read that, but maybe they mean /system/media/notifications and /system/media/ringtones, on the phone internal memory.

    This is a clean ICS ROM built from from the Qualcomm Code Aurora source.
    Everything is functional including the camera, video recording, bluetooth and GPU acceleration.
    This is based on the ics_chocolate branch and a new version is released regularly.

    https://www.codeaurora.org/xwiki/bin/QAEP/ics_chocolate

    Full source is available on github, see here:http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=22770874&postcount=747

    Use this issue tracker to report bugs/problems:

    http://code.google.com/p/ics-aurora/issues/list

    If you get a reboot, do the following from a terminal or over adb:
    Code:
    su
    cat /dev/block/mmcblk0p7 > /sdcard/crash.txt
    Then post the crash file (if it has anything in it) here or on the issue tracker.

    Installation
    underline.png

    To install, you must have upgraded to the official gingerbread rom and installed CWM recovery 5.0.2.7 or 5.5.0.4.
    You will have to wipe data when you first install but upgrading shouldn't need a wipe unless it is stated in the release notes.
    Some instructions on upgrading are here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=22682229#post22682229
    and here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1420728

    Users in Finland on the Saunalahti network need to change a setting for the sim card to load correctly.
    download a terminal program such as connectbot and open a local session, then type:

    su
    setprop persist.opl.enabled 0
    setprop persist.pnn.enabled 0
    setprop persist.eons.enabled 0

    Now reboot.
    You only have to do this again if you wipe data.

    Thanks

    Thanks to the Code Aurora team at Qualcomm.
    Thanks to Tom Giordano/bukington for some of the the ics kernel commits.
    Thanks to early testers who risked missed calls and corrupt memory cards to try it out.
    Thanks to all those who have donated - your contributions help me continue this work. This stuff takes a lot of time so your support makes a big difference. All donations are much appreciated.

    Changelog and Release Notes
    underline.png


    Initial Version 1.0

    camera not functional
    low in call volume
    sound recording is quiet and distorted
    wifi doesn't always connect automatically
    notification led doesn't flash

    Version 1.1

    fix low in call volume
    fix bootloop on enabling cell location
    fix light and proximity sensors
    fix home key on amtel touchscreens
    enable mtp mode for data transfer

    Version 1.2

    fix for bootloop when audioflinger doesn't start sometimes

    Working camera (no video yet)
    fix for SD card not being recognised and getting corrupted
    change to the rpc ril instead of the qmi ril

    Version 1.4

    Fix low resolution icons
    Fix Mobile Networks menu when language is not US English
    Update kernel GPU driver to latest version

    Version 1.5

    Fix video recording
    If you switch away from the cam when it's in video mode (e.g. to view a video), it will crash when you return to it.
    This doesn't affect the functionality but is annoying.
    It does full 720p h264 with audio.

    Version 1.6

    Fix a bug that caused the gpu to sometimes crash when the display was switched off.
    Enable autobrightness (don't think it actually works yet though)

    fixed some other problems. e.g. with some games pausing while trying to play audio.
    Fix picture rotation for the camera.
    Add smartass2 cpufreq governor, I don't care about this but somebody asked for it.
    Change some values in /system/etc/gps.conf - don't know if this will help.

    Version 1.8a
    Fix video recorder crash

    Version 1.9
    Change speaker acoustic profile - hopefully this will fix audio problems
    Change sensitivity of synaptics touchscreen
    put aurora version in build number
    change phone name, model and manufacturer to the correct values
    fix strictmode not turning off (may need a reboot)
    fix raw picture mode for camera (not very useful)
    set build type to user rather than eng

    Version 1.10
    Fix battery stats not showing (needs more power data to be useful)
    Add ability to skip loading some records from the SIM card (for Finland)
    Fix compass
    Remove some frequencies from cpufreq table (might help with battery life)
    Change wifi scan rate from 15 to 60 seconds

    Free up a bit of spare memory from the kernel
    Add FM radio - (thanks to honking)

    Free up some more memory (camera was being very greedy)
    add headsetmic and dualmic properties

    Version 1.12
    Update to M7630AABBQMLZA4040296I release - fairly big change so this may introduce new bugs
    Use version 0.8 of wpa_supplicant with wext library (should help with wifi connection problems)
    Fix atmel touchscreen
    Add settings for dualmic and headset to settings app (in Sound) - property names had to change so you will need to set them again.

    Version 1.12a
    Fix 720p video recording

    Version 1.13
    Use the 2d graphics core for composition - should make graphics faster and use less power (set debug.composition.type=gpu in build.prop if you don't like it)
    Update power profile so battery stats work better
    Some gps changes (not tested well)
    Remove some unused resources to reduce the size of /system
    Add a system property to override the wifi mac address - use su; setprop persist.sys.wifimac mac_param=11:22:33:44:55:66

    Update FM radio

    Version 2.04
    Update to M7630AABBQMLZA404030I release
    Fix torch in Notification drawer and add torch app
    Add new wifi driver, enable it from Settings..Developer Options
    The new driver uses much less power and stays connected when the phone is asleep but doesn't work with WEP networks and may be more buggy.
    Update GPU drivers to the binaries that were released by Qualcomm.
    Enable gpu composition, 2D is slower but some apps work better.
    Change Bluetooth power level to 2. May help BT connection problems.
    Saunalahti users note that the SIM loading hack has changed - see the installation instructions.

    Version 2.05
    Update to kernel version 3.0.8 (ported from u8860 with lots of work), this may be less stable than earlier versions.
    Only the new wifi driver will work, the settings app still shows a choice but changing it won't do anything.
    New wifi config file (thanks to sbasil).
    Fix the date in exif tags for photos.
    Fix button backlight, now has autobrightness too.
    Fix photo editor crashing.
    Use CAF radio app (has a horrible interface but the old one no longer works). Supports rds.

    Version 2.06_experimental
    Update to latest ics_chocolate (caf_AU_LINUX_ANDROID_ICS_CHOCOLATE.04.00.03.05.169 manifest)
    This is Android version 4.0.4 so there are lots of changes from 4.0.3 and that is why it's experimental.
    Fix camera picture corruption (camera may still not be completely stable)
    Fix wifi not seeing some APs
    Fix some causes of wifi reboots.
    Warning: Since this is a new Android version you may not be able to downgrade without clearing data so make a backup first.

    Version 2.07_test
    Update to latest tagged release for msm7x30 (M7630AABBQMLZA4040305I)
    Change touchscreen mode to avoid jitter
    Update some proprietary binaries
    Fix failure to send vreg rpc to the modem from causing battery drain sometimes
    Wifi fix for occasional reboots
    In /system/etc/firmware/wlan/qcom_cfg.ini I have set gMaxPsPoll=1 because without this wifi doesn't stay connected during sleep. Some people claim this gives problems when connecting to certain APs but I have never seen this.

    Version 2.08
    Fix SD card detection using a gpio interrupt
    Free 33M ram by reducing the size of the surfaceflinger cache and the camera record buffer
    Fix a couple of memory leaks in the wifi module
    Fix notification of an incoming call during a call
    Switch back to version 0.8 of wpa_supplicant (should help with wifi connection problems)

    Version 2.09
    fix sd card not mounting if wifi is initially off
    add haptic feedback for atmel touchscreens (to disable, put "echo 0 > /sys/module/atmel_i2c_rmi_QT602240/parameters/vibrate" at the end of /system/etc/init.qcom.post_boot.sh)
    fix bluetooth not pairing
    make wifi module much smaller (from 2M to 800K)
    update root filesystem and rc files

    Version 2.10
    Update ril proprietary libs
    Enable HSDPA symbol

    Version 2.11
    Possible fix for volume button failure
    Revert to the larger wifi driver

    Fix volume button breakage (for real this time)
    Fix native wifi tethering
    Set default min/max cpu frequency to 122MHz/800MHz, this saves some battery and you can always change it with setcpu.

    Update to new CAF release M7630AABBQMLZA404031I
    New LED driver (only does the same notifications as before but is much more programmable)

    Use older wpa_supplicant to fix wifi connection problems
    Use the new kgsl driver again since the old one didn't seem to fix anything
    Remove the software opengl lib from egl.cfg
    Remove qualcomm's media parser from the media scanner, this may help with media scanning problems.

    3.0_beta2_update1 (Install from recovery on top of an existing 3.0_beta2 installation)
    Apply the patches described here: http://epiccm.blogspot.co.nz/2012/03/details-on-disappearing-sd-media-issue.html
    Increase the panel frame rate to 53fps - thanks to zephyr1988

    Version 3.1
    Fix Pinyin Keyboard
    Use small wifi driver again
    Use version 2.0 wpa_supplicant. (this may cause problems with some APs but I think it's better to use this than version 0.8 because the rest of the system is designed for it). If it doesn't connect to an AP, post a log giving all the details and I'll try to fix it.
    Add /HWuserdata as a symlink to the internal sdcard
    Use settings..storage..menu..USB Computer Connection to switch between usb storage and MTP mode (some people have reported lost data on the card when doing this, you have been warned). MTP mode is probably what most people want.

    Well, XDA sent me a One S, so I do have to do something for it, but I'm definitely still working on u8800. I think I figured out exactly why the volume keys were failing so expect that to be fixed soon and I'll update to the new CAF release.

    I probably won't be able to make as frequent updates as I have in the past and I'm away all next week but I haven't given up.
    44
    I've got my u8800 back and have spent the last few days working on an update for Aurora. I'll post it soon.
    39
    Aurora releases update M7630AABBQMLZA404033I.xml,it seems DZO really busy.

    I am really busy, but I'll take a look at this when I have some time.

    I got back from my holiday at the weekend. I stayed an extra week but that means I have a lot of work to catch up on now. I just had a look at the 7630 jb release from CAF and the release notes say:

     The following features are not functional in this release.
     Bluetooth®
     Camcorder/Camera
     HDMI
     Telephony
     WLAN
     Audio
     Video

    (these release notes are not publicly available I'm afraid)
    So basically nothing works!! I don't know if it's even worth compiling it.
