[*] Video recording (currently present in all 4.x ROMs for HTC Desire)

Hi spezi ,
Here is a 4.0.4 Rom for desire and video recording is working fine.
It has no problem at all.
I'm using it for 2days and it has no camera problem.
Maybe you can ask for help in camera issue

Thank you, karo! :good:

Could you please tell me the kernel version? I guess it is 2.6.38.

From what I have read in the rom thread it has a QISS 4.0.4 ICS kernel with modified ram disk. I don't know if there is something useful. Also chances are not too good as Nikes already has shown his interest one year ago.

However, it is worth asking! :good: :good: :good:

you're welcome

this is the kernel : 2.6.38.8-cayniarb-ics-stock-022612-00844-ge004de8

It will be great to have video recording with a 4+ android.
For now I'm using the camera but it has some kind of problems with cracked softwares

No problem, and thanks for your idea! Unfortunately I have been eagerly trying to make it work some weeks ago.. :/ also devs from HD24ever team could not help me.

However, the good news is that I have a more brilliant rom in stock.. just waiting for the owner's permission to publish it! ;)

    I am proud to present you with a lean AOSP based ROM.




    omnirom-374x450m3k41.png




    Omni is a community-based project for the Android community which is Free: Free to Use, Free to Modify, Free to Share. It's also about options, which is the beauty of Android.




    Code:
    #include 
    /*
     * Your warranty is now void.
     *
     * I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
     * thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
     * do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
     * before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
     * you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you. Hard. A lot.

    - Sync with omnirom repo (2014/07/19)
    - Fixed "Got stuck at boot/splash screen" by
    - using a new kernel version ("Utopian") which:

    - Fixed 'long press home key' to bring up the recent apps

    -- Lots of different CPU governors (Lazy [thanks @Ezekeel], Lagfree, SmartassH3, SmartassV2, InteractiveX, etc.)
    -- Default CPU gov is SmartassH3 which is said to offer a great balance between performance and battery life

    CURRENTLY NOT WORKING:
    ==============================

    • Video recording (currently present in all 4.x ROMs for HTC Desire; Just use Videocam Illusion (audio quality at 44.1KHz!))
    • Screen recording (writes zero KB file)
    • OpenVPN (kernel issue: cannot acquire tun interface socket)
    • SELinux (disabled by intention)

    ART support:
    The most recent release also includes ART. Please be warned that ART is still considered to be an "experimental mode". Only few apps support it. ART is currently not tested by me and may lead to crashes or even to data loss. Please enable ART only if you know what you are doing and why you are doing this.

    Todo list:
    ==============================
    • Add Trackball wake option
    • Investigate why hardware keys are not illuminated when you push them

    Sources:
    =================
    ROM: http://github.com/omnirom
    Manifest: https://github.com/spezi77/omnirom
    Kernel: https://github.com/spezi77/android_kernel_htc_qsd8k/tree/utopian

    You may want to compile it yourself:
    =============================
    To initialize your local repository use this command:
    Code:
    repo init -u git://github.com/spezi77/omnirom.git -b android-4.4
    Then to sync up:
    Code:
    repo sync
    Then to build:
    Code:
     cd into repo folder; . build/envsetup.sh; brunch bravo


    Special thanks:
    =================

    • Evervolv Team "bringing us kk in the first place and some of the other source used"
    • Croniccorey "for EternityKernel"
    • CyanogenMod "for their legacy code"

    Greetings to all OmniROM geeks!
    Today we are leapfrogging to Android 4.4.4! This is the first custom rom for HTC Desire based on the brand new KTU84P release.
    Therein Google addresses some OpenSSL items.

    Have a nice day!
    :cool:

    Thanks Spezi77 for this awesome ROM that I couldn't think of changing since you created this thread!
    Great battery performance! I dare say, the best among kitkat roms for desire!

    This has been my fav one while my desire was still my active device. And now, it is time to retire my best phone and move on...
    I'll still roam around this forum to check out cool stuff happening here, and hopefully contribute some more...

    Check out the new version available with lots of improvements (see post #1).
