Well "done" is a big word. The rom works great, don't get me wrong, but there are a few things that could use some more love: long press camera button to wake and launch camera app somewhat jerky auto brightness (when compared to the stock rom netflix drm issue currently broken OTA update...

I've just installed this ROM and most of everything is working great! One issue I have is that when calling, the other side hears me as if I'm coming from very far. I had the same issue when I *enabled* noise cancellation on the stock ROM. I found this thread for a completely different model...

I'm having the same issue: the location services seem to be missing, as there is no option to enable use of WiFi and mobile networks for location. there's only two GPS options (enable GPS and enable agps) and the Google search use location option. it also seems Google maps is not detecting the...

It was rendered irrelevant by the technicallyc superior solution: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1960117

This should really go somewhere else than "Themes and Apps". I think this problem is affecting a lot of users just looking at the Sony Support forums... And this should be pinned :)

Hi, I backed up everything in my phone using Xperia's (ICS only) "Backup & Restore" app. I zipped the backup files and uploaded them to dropbox. I then did a factory reset, and redownloaded the uploaded file, unzipped it, and placed it in the .semc-fullbackup directory, but the app cannot find...

The furthest I got was compiling the omx library based on ffmpeg for arm-linux-androideabi-gcc. I have no idea where I can plug this in, as I can't find the omx symbols this library exports (also the symbols described by the OMX IL spec/headers). Since ICS runs flakily on my device, I'm not...

Hi everyone! Since Qualcomm isn't releasing armv6 binary blobs for the QDSP5 (HTC Legend) for ICS, and software decoding through ffmpeg is blazingly fast anyways, I thought that perhaps I could use ffmpeg instead of the apparently slow software implementation used now in ICS when a dedicated...

OK. Will take a look at those. Thanks.

This is how I understand the multimedia stack in Android: So: Hardware -> OpenMax DL -> OpenMax IL -> OpenMax AL -> apps like YouTube, Video Player and IMDB. What is missing in the Legend's case is at least the OpenMax IL that speaks to the QDSP5 chip. This leads to Android using Google's...

OK, I'm going to take a whack at fixing Qualcomm's crap OMX IL stuff (which is just plain missing FYI). I have found an open source OpenMax IL library which can use ffmpeg as a backend, which in my experience was fast enough to play 480*320 mp4 video (in apps like MX Player). Now I'll have to...

Question: is the reason that "native wifi sleep" and wifi AP don't work the 2.6.35 kernel wlan drivers? I noticed that CM7 is still on 2.6.32. If so, two followup questions: 1. Why use 2.6.35 if it is possible to build a 2.6.32 ICS kernel? (see for example here 2. Would zeubea be interested in...

GPS does work rather fine. It's the phone reboot as shown in the attached logcat I'm more worried about. All I did was open browser, or Angry birds or whatever. All I have running in the background is Friendcaster, Gmail&associates and Email. It's this refresh thing I'm talking about indeed...

Here's anther logcat of a Google navigation related crash. To be honest, this reminds me of the CM7.1 crashes. The GPS stuff was fixed quite recently in CM7.2 nightlies, perhaps the changes were not ported over to CM9. This is CM9.0.0-beta2, with the default GPU mem size kernel from a few posts...

Thanks for the quick response. I am on the beta2+default GPU mem kernel+gapps flashed in succession and had one reboot somewhere during Google Maps. I forgot to turn logcat on, so I missed it. I have it turned on now continuously and will provide any crashes I experience. So far (after that one...

Hello everyone! Let me first say this effort is great. I hope Qualcomm comes through on the OMX codecs (or some alternative "happens") so this ROM can be refined up to perfection. I installed the beta2 ROM for a couple of days and had 1-2 reboots per day. I managed to logcat one until all the...

Why is the Sony Experia U so cheap? I am wondering how on earth a €200 phone can have a dual core and ICS. There must be something very cheap about it, but I don't know what. Anyone have this phone and can share their experience? Also: why is there no subforum for this phone?

Has anyone ever tried to use Clang or libc++ targetting ARM for their Android development?

I could never overclock my Legend. Always near-instant reboots :(. Consider yourself lucky if you can!

Hi, I was wondering if someone put together their knowledge of sense apps and libraries so one could install the minimum amount of dependencies for a certain sense bit. Thanks!

"I'll be back" Awesome one-liner, usable almost in any real-life situation.

my dear old

I first had an old Alcatel thing. Looked somewhat like [can't post links] Then of course a Nokia 3310. Everyone I knew played Snake and Space Impact. I couldn't be left behind. For a short while I had an old Sony Ericsson with ridiculously small buttons, then another Nokia, and then a Samsung...

I'd like to get a Google "developer" phone, one that updates from Google, but there have been issues with the latest batch from Samsung that had some firmware modification so the updates wouldn't come through :( I'm still using my old Legend and don't really have a compelling reason to upgrade :)

Using a rooted version of the latest official HTC ROM (Froyo), I get a browser (and Sense) crash when loading e.g. xda-developers.com with the default browser if javascript is enabled. I had the brilliant idea to logcat the crash (which is a pretty cool tool btw). Is there anything someone more...

Hi all, Since recently I have reverted my CM7.1 to a rootd HTC stock Froyo ROM (reason being the Sense Facebook app and the fact that Google navigation caused my phone to reboot determinisically after ~30 minutes). I did remove the Sense stuff I didn't need, resulting in the nice and speedy...
