[ROM] cyano + stock

First i'd like to say thanks (sorry but the list will not be complete)

Second: I prefer not to start new thread, but this way it will be easier to track the feedbacks.

My point of view is that this thread will be temporary (till feedbacks are collected)


Ok after this introduction let's go...

As i was playing about hdmi stuff, some side effects occur

so some "technical" stuff.

in VideoPlayerMoto.apk is defined hdmi_status (so extdispservice seems to load ok)

then i decide to include MediaGallery.apk, which requires Gestures..so far so good...

btw,MediaGallery crashes (suspect thumbnail cache), but before that it tries hard to make me happy (e.g. turn the media leds on).

Then thing get the wrong direction .

I brute forced the stock framework and discover that in framework-res.apk there is (after smali) com/motorola/hardware/LED.*

so i just renamed it and put it in the system...,which is wrong!!

the right way is to pick the smali and incorporate it in framework/base (which will generate framework-res.apk)

other not so wrong way is from selected smali's to generate small and different framework apk...

but as i said i did it wrong (brute)


Ok now about the feedbacks.

If you have enough space on the system (the linked file is about 5Mb larger than usual) you can test from:
https://github.com/peshovec/playground/downloads
test-feedback-it-please.zip — for testing purposes, please feedback it
removed


it is expected to have all the features from the last test build + media key working almost as in the stock roms

p.s. for the MediaGallery.apk to install you have to add

Code:

    <library name="com.motorola.aui" 
            file="/system/framework/com.motorola.aui.jar"/>

in /system/etc/permissions/platform.xml

should look like that

Code:

snip........

    <library name="javax.obex"
            file="/system/framework/javax.obex.jar"/>
    <library name="com.motorola.aui" 
            file="/system/framework/com.motorola.aui.jar"/>

</permissions>

(will have to figure out how to include it)



Again do your backup, and if you want to give some of your spare time, install it (after making backup), test it and give feedback please


add info...

Proof Of Concept hdmi out works just played a little with a realhdmi and a hdmi-dvi adapter.... the plan is to implement the stock behavior too (that;s why MediaGalery is introduced)



updates
1. sound dosen't work,because of duplicating frameworks-res, the sound-fix.zip should fix that (apply via updates)

2. sound-fix.zip no more needed, use update-cm-7.1.0-MilestoneXT720-beta-25012012-signed.zip — testing, stock hdmi out need feedbacks
stock hdmi out works (hdmi-dvi to a dvi monitor), please test and share feedback

3. overclock:
Thanks to vlad-it, i took a look at it (honestly, i do not overclock at least for now)
so you have to insert symsearch.ko before overclock.ko

e.g in /system/etc/rootfs//init.mapphone_umts.rc


should be atleast


as you can see here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=22305986&postcount=3 all the addresses are discovered
it should be possible to pass directly to insmod overclock all the necessary parameters (the bug in insmod, which takes into the account just the first parameter is marked fixed some time ago) e.g. frequency and voltage
*remark actually the bug was in init,which doesn't pass all parameters to insmod

4. media key (playalka.zip):
If screen is locked, pressing media key will start the music (like the headset button). If you enable in cyanomod settings camera key, you will be able to "blind" use the phone as a player, with headphones which doesn't have button (hence the code name playalka, pronounced плейялка [pleɪjɑlka] )
e.g. media key to start the music
camera key to play/pause
volume up/down holding to go to next/previous song

5. lcd density
I prepare 3 scripts, which will allow to change "Resolution" inside OpenRecovery
https://github.com/CyanogenModXT720...mmit/2bd1b18d666f73a5d0307ad0875f598656fa21b9

you can grab them and put in /sdcard/OpenRecovery/scripts then you can use them.
Please make a backup of Your /system/build.prop before that

6. update-cm-7.1.0-MilestoneXT720-beta-20022012-signed.zip — md5sum b01d4f8aa960932c8b05662e23210d6e
noticeable: more stable MediaGalery , and under-hoods modifications
Please if you are able test hdmi with video and observe if (and where) there is a sound

7. update-cm-7.1.0-MilestoneXT720-beta-09032012-signed.zip — md5: 073153033a4d8e543e4ed65341f71557 underhood optimizations, sync to upstream, picked (not merged yet) features, need testers about hdmi and ui cloning (defaults are safe, has to be enabled in build.prop)

will appreciate feedbacks

8. 04.04.2012 (md5sum c684a341721d0b59deb6fa507a70cf8e), memory tester.
Mostly memory related changes. Visible change: jpeg-turbo instead of jpeg

9. update-cm-7.1.0-MilestoneXT720-beta-17042012-signed.zip — md5: f30f35d0c22349a1f34d5aef873dc511 Synced, mms and dockaudio in systemui, cron enabled (default 4am /cdrom/4am.sh), toggable via CMParts

On xt720mod.sbf comment the line in /system/etc/rootfs/unit.mapphone_umts.rc that mounts mtd@cust on /system/etc/motorola (I.e. put # character at start of line) and reboot. Seems to have fixed wireless data for me.

MediaGallery works

Ok, have figured it out


the MediaGallery.apk (and VideoPlayer) from the stock finally are working.

about external jar, still search how to integrate them with framework.jar the right way....


But for now thing are so:

in the AndroidManifest.xml in MediaGallery.apk there is:

so i just insert into com.motorola.aui.jar additional led and mediastorage

after editing platform.xml

MediaGallery works (the option Display on Tv is available and is starting to search the hdmi device, same applies to the VideoPlayer

will try to figure out how to make the change in platform.xml persistent (e.g. without need for modifying it later) and will replace the test build



update:
ok new test build
update-cm-7.1.0-MilestoneXT720-beta-25012012-signed.zip — testing, stock hdmi out need feedbacks
tv out from mediagallery works (hdmi cable via hdmi-dvi to advi monitor)

please test and report (also in this build i forgot to remote gallery launch service, so media key will work somehow...)
no additional changes to platform.xml are needed anymore

3rdstring said:

It doesn't seem to be working for me either. The Camera app just freezes after pressing the button to start recording.

Click to expand...

Click to collapse

well,
as i had run tests with both stock and fastboot kernel, probably i am using a little different version...

so with this update:
https://github.com/downloads/peshovec/playground/my-video-working.zip

i am able to record video (tested just "wide")

i will appreciate feedbacks if it works for you too... (or not)

Here's a patch (apply as OR update) for peshovec's update-cm-7.1.0-MilestoneXT720-beta-04042012-signed.zip that adds support for xt720mod.sbf (sensorfix.ko) and sets default density back to 240.

So far memory use seems to be much, much more sane than I've experienced in the compiled CM7's for XT720 that I've tried. nadlabak's sneaky process reassignment/vm merging tricks seem to work quite well. I'm not hating it yet and by now I'd usually have a growing bad feeling about CM7 I am seeing more FC's than I expect but the logcats do seem to be pointing at problems in the apps rather than say the framework etc.
