[ROM] CM9 4.0.4 Kang | v0.3 | Working FFC/Camcorder

bracketslash · Apr 16, 2012

Saw that there weren't many CM9 kangs with working camera and dialer, so I figured I might as well try to help out.

I'd just like to point out that I'm a "beginner" developer, having only basic knowledge of AOSP, etc. I can try to fix problems, but I love it when people help me. I'd like to get everything to get to a "we all help each other" stage, but I guess that won't happen

That being said, please help me to help you. I'd like to learn, and I'm sure you would too. If you know solutions to problems, post them here. If you have a problem that you need solved, maybe someone can help.

I'm not responsible for what these files do to your phone, but I sure hope that nothing bad happens!

I've been running v0.3 with Aero's kernal for a few days now as my DD. Best ICS Rom I've tried so far! Great work!

JahatHNc · Apr 16, 2012

thanks my friend..

downloading now..

btw the GSM mode is working well?

haoyong · Apr 16, 2012

Oooh, looks promising. Does the new kernel take care of the multi-touch issues that had previously been seen?

If I'm running one of Aero's cm9 roms, can I do a simple wipe of cache/davlik and install?

I read in the RW thread that you can do a simple wipe if installing v0.1. True? (I'd just prefer not to load up everything again, but if need dictates I will).

As always. Wiping is recommended. You can flash over but do not report bugs till you have tried a complete wipe first.

This is almost always the case with any rom.

Dear Inc2 owners..

Just flashed over Aero's 4/7 with this v0.3, only wiping cache & davlik. Everything seems fine thus far ...

Except no rotating softkeys !!

So sad

daniETingles · Apr 17, 2012

do all the games work? (e.g. TempleRun)

kilrain · Apr 17, 2012

Installed V.3, kernal, gapps.

Everything looks awesome, so far these are my only problems-
-Speaker phone doesn't seem to work, at least I can't get it to.
-MMS, "can't add image to this message" - will be testing more with this, could be my end.
** This was me trying to send a picture from the gallery that was actually online, not sure how to do that or if its possible but a pic that is on the phone sent just fine **

Not sure, I don't have games.

In other news - auto brightness works!!

kilrain · Apr 17, 2012

Alright I spoke too soon, the picture messaging doesn't seem to be working it just keeps sending so far.

Card83 · Apr 17, 2012

Downloading now, I'll report on my findings later tonight. But the way I see it, more options are always better than fewer options when it comes to Rom choices.

kilrain · Apr 17, 2012

Applied settings from:

Rebooted and I was able to send/receive a MMS message.

I was only able to use the camcorder once and the FFS is upside down, going to reapply the fix and see if that helps.

ericsdeadinside · Apr 17, 2012

Flashed right over aeroevan's didn't wipe data. Everything works. I like how the softlights don't rotate cause then they don't disappear.

Card83 · Apr 17, 2012

So far, very snappy and clean. I think I might be sticking with this one for now.

kilrain · Apr 17, 2012

The only problems i have are the same as a llot of people on other roms, if I use the FFC at all then the camcorder doesn't work for a while, usually a reboot. Otherwise a great rom, I'll be using it for a while to see if anything comes up.

How is the back camera?

Card83 · Apr 17, 2012

All the camera features seem to work for me. Even the Face Unlock feature works without a hitch.

A2Trip · Apr 17, 2012

Wow. Very cool. May have to try this on my girls INC2. Thanks. Is there still like a theme app/applier like on CM7?

Yes and No. The feature looks like it has been built in, but has yet to be implemented. So the option is there in the Settings menu, but when you tap, it just says "Temporary placeholder until functionality merged."

My guess is that it will be included in a future build somewhere down the road.
