Build is up! Light bar still "breathes" when screen is off. Will check to turn it off competely on screen off.

Just installed it. So far so good! I'll let you know if I find anything.

I notice that Pian0Play0r mentioned installing the h264 patch. Do you recommend doing so or we should wait for a new patch?

Thanks again for your hard work!

You can use the same patch. The file does not change over android versions unless I change it (It's device specific). I prefer video playback in the browser because I don't use netflix etc so for me personally the patch is not needed.

If there are more people using the patch than people who don't ill enable the codec again in next build.

Got it!

Have been using your new built for a few hours now. Very smooth (surprisingly, smoother than 12.1) and so far, no apparent issues. Awesome!

Just a small comment: if you haven't already done so, you probably should update the link to the latest version of Mindthegapp on your first post

I've just installed Android 13 as well and I gotta say I'm impressed, works pretty well so far, quite smooth.
I'm enjoying the new taskbar and split-screen changes, although I really miss the crDroid customizations, especially for the statusbar.
The codec patch is definitely necessary, otherwise YouTube and Twitch stutter horribly in 60 fps. For the browser I use Firefox where videos seem to work fine regardless, probably because of the different engine.

A couple issues I've noticed though:

• Like someone mentioned, the official bluetooth keyboard doesn't connect even though it pairs, however my bluetooth speakers also don't connect either after pairing successfully so something seems wrong with the bluetooth
• When selecting show volume panel on left side it doesn't do that
• The settings don't have a dual pane layout anymore

Thanks for your hard work @michie

Thanks for the feedback, appreciate it! Will look in the bluetooth issue.

Love it! First time booting, connected to wifi and a few updates. Working on getting everything installed since it glitched out when first logging into google said no network was available, when already logged into wifi. Magisk was a cinch, just installed the apk and it auto installed and rooted after a reboot. Burning up the data for now to get everything setup, but will check back in later. Mostly use my tablet for plex streaming and (my limited) smart home control.

edit- Ok, after rooted and a couple reboots, it wants to load the backup from google. perfect!

You guys are really legends, really huge huge thanks. I bought the device second handed with mind that I'd be migrating to iPad within a year. Somehow I'm still using this device with the newest features out there. Really can't thank you enough. Thanks for everything.

Great build Michie! Thanks a ton!

Anyone else without audio? I know that's something you said you needed to work on, Michie. I don't have any.

 

[lanzhihong]

very nice !

Audio works

 

[michie]

New build is up:

* Fixed Bluetooth connection
* Fixed Bluetooth audio
* Replaced our old bluetooth hal with Shield Bluetooth configs
* Ported Wifi Shield configs
* Performance optimizations (GPU boost)
* November security patch

I forgot to include the H264 patch, will do next build.

 

[pat_wild]

Once more, thanks @michie for this great built! I installed it on Friday evening and everything runs smoothly. No issues with audio or videos.

 

[TomRx]

There is a problem with the UI stuttering in the new build. Need to find out why...

Can someone try the patch in attachment to re-enable the codec?

Thank you for this. It worked perfectly and makes this device a great Plex watching tablet.

Does that patch work on 13 as well?
EDIT: I see it does. Trying a dirty flash now, wish me luck

 

[TomRx]

I have not tried 13 yet. 12 is working very well for me.

 

[tabormeister]

Huh. PSA, flashed TWRP 3.7 from recovery and now it won't boot to recovery. Gonna try flashing from fastboot.

 

[tabormeister]

Flashing from fastboot fixed it. 13 is UNBELIEVABLY smooth, I didn't even clear the cache and it booted great. @michie you're on another level.

 

[tabormeister]

Y'all Chrome is even smooth now, slow initial launch but it's usable again where before it crashed all the time. Insane!!

 

[Sparkingdog]

Thanks michie , never felt so smooth on my pixel c , the animation and gesture are better than every rom that I used before. But there is a minor problem about usb transfering data is not working.

 

[michie]

What's wrong with usb transferring? It works perfectly my for me

Btw, got a connection to the camera's again:

CameraService: onDeviceStatusChanged: Status changed for cameraId=1, newStatus=1
CameraService: onDeviceStatusChanged: Unknown camera ID 1, a new camera is added
CameraService: onDeviceStatusChanged: Status changed for cameraId=0, newStatus=1
CameraService: onDeviceStatusChanged: Unknown camera ID 0, a new camera is added
CameraProviderManager: Camera provider legacy/0 ready with 2 camera devices

Now let's see if I can get them to work with the Android 13 framework.
