[ROM][8.1.0] LineageOS 15.1 (Unofficial)

[RDS5]

Currently issues we have are
Random freezes (zram)
Vendor mismatch
Landscape touch (?) - If tab boots in landscape touch is unusable (Ideally should not happen as we set the hwrotation)
GPS
RIL
SELinux

First issue fixed by disabling zram in builds, future reference we can use zram from the 3.0 kernel.
Second, by removing the vendor lines in device tree

wdym what vendor lines? anything that references vendor in the device tree?

Third, its hard to reproduce, getting any logs would be useful

i dont get any sort of rotation issues on 10.1" (last time i checked at least, cant check anymore as mine has just suffered the curse of 0% and i got the joy of finding out i didnt patch it correctly!)

RIL No idea, there's no 3G SIM for me to test

most carriers are shutting down 3G tho, so its getting harder to test now

SELinux - A huge pain, will touch only when everything else works

didnt SELinux work on UA?

Anything else/feature requests?

With switched off zram, i now have three times used the tablet until battery had 30 %, no chrash, no freeze.

A wish would be, that video playback would work. In my foreign tv app, video stream and playback of videos isn't working. If i remember right, in ua it was working (but not every time). Videos at different websites won't work, too.

GPS would be fine.

Needed things should have imho priority, optional ones only if the rest is done.

Ah, and thanks for your work!

Sorry, how do I disable zram on my 5110?

you can use adb shell and type swapoff /sys/block/zram0 (if i remember correctly) or fiddle with the settings in an app called smartpack kernel manager (or kernel adiutor, smartpack is more up to date tho)

yep, so we just need to disable zram in future builds (will do once i figure out how to fix my 0% soft/hardbricked tablet. i hope i dont have to open up the tablet and inject voltage to get it working again, because at that point i might aswell just solder some damn UART wires and get logs that way, its 20x more reliable)

A wish would be, that video playback would work. In my foreign tv app, video stream and playback of videos isn't working. If i remember right, in ua it was working (but not every time). Videos at different websites won't work, too.

ive noticed that in newpipe too, mind getting some logs of the issue? (i would, but you know the drill by now..)
video playback seems to be working in the browser, and 2D gpu acceleration seems to be working too, but im pretty sure these omap4 devices decode video with some cortex m0 chips, so its a little more complicated than gpu.
just use adb logcat (or whatever other method to get a logcat) and provide it (make sure to use -d all so all the logs are collected

Needed things should have imho priority, optional ones only if the rest is done.

yeah, SELinux isnt super important since:
1: this version of android is extremely behind security patches anyways
2: this kernel is extremely behind security patches anyways
3: the only fix to issue 1 is to get android 10+ running on this device, which you can guess isnt exactly an easy thing to do..

I can confirm rotation issue occurs, will debug more on it.

@html6405 had fixed it iirc. Also I remember it working on UA so definitely was fixed.

ah okay

on the 7" model? cus on 10" i had no issues like that..
dont they have very different display panels tho?

maybe they could help with this one too?
but atm SELinux isnt really important

could anyone try to get logs of the video playback issue?

Lets just say P31xx (7 inch models) are special
We set the rotation to 270 on boot, but sometimes that fails thus the issue.
Landscape after booting works fine for me

maybe they could help with this one too?
but atm SELinux isnt really important

Yeah but if it works in UA it should here as well

could anyone try to get logs of the video playback issue?

Did you add the frameworks/av patch as I sent before? That fixed video on UA and should fix here as well

ohh okay

lineageos still has many patches on top of it tho (frameworks arent the same as UA) so its not trivial to get working (i already see quite a few SELinux denials in the logs..)

i thought i did, but i guess i may have broken something at the end, im not sure..
ill likely build again, but since i cant test for now anything that i build is untested and could cause problems

ive opened up my tablet and the battery is at 3v but i dont know how i can charge it externally

Hello everybody,

my espresso3g is on the latest build, lineage-15.1-20230124-UNOFFICIAL-espresso3g.

Video playback is not working for me either in YouTube and newpipe, however, when selecting external video player in newpipe I can playback in VLC player even 720p videos almost perfectly.
TV streaming app also works.

Thanks to all working on this!

 

[curiousde2002]

@RDS5

+on property:ro.bootmode=charger
+    start pvrsrvinit

Add this to rootdir/init.espresso.rc and offline charging should b

This did not work for me, the file just did not save the entry.

So offline charging still doesn't work.

Is deep sleep working?
My device loses about 20% battery overnight and according to kernel adiutor's list of used frequencies deep sleep isn't used.

Otherwise everything seems to be working.

Thank you very much again for your work!

yeah i noticed that (when my tablet was still working!!) that newpipe wouldnt playback video, but other video players (namely, the browser) would playback videos (and properly, too)
so its an issue with the android frameworks and most likely not a driver
could you get some logs of this issue? i would but my tablet is dead atm and ive got no way of fixing it..

This did not work for me, the file just did not save the entry.

when building the rom you need to add this, i thought i added it to my espressowifi builds but clearly not as my tablet will not charge offline (when i needed it the most)

So offline charging still doesn't work.

seemingly not, at least on my builds (and now seemingly @Mighty's builds as well)

Is deep sleep working?
My device loses about 20% battery overnight and according to kernel adiutor's list of used frequencies deep sleep isn't used.

hmm, i never looked into that..
can you still manually set clock speeds lower in kernel adiutor and does it actually save battery at lower speeds?
if so, its likely not that complicated (android just doesnt enter doze for whatever reason)
if not, its likely more complicated (android cannot change cpu clock speeds)

 

[Mighty]

Did you add the change as i told? I havent gotten time to put a new build with that iirc

 

[Mighty]

Also @RDS5 offline charging is set by the bootloader (rom just sets the indication, hardware bits shuld be set) so just plug it in (not with pc/laptop) and give it a few hours, it should atleast boot up

it lights up with the battery indicator and then attempts to start the android offline mode charging but then it stays black with only the backlight on (usually after a while it turns off the backlight)
i dont think i added the change to my build (i remember adding it but i dont remember building it with that change, i mustve broken it somewhere)

I've put an usb test tool between charger and cable, mine charges offline with 650 - 700 mA by now, so charging should be possible while black screen with backlight on.

I've made it live after having mainline linux (ie no charger driver at all) from 0% so this is definitely not an issue, just let it be for sometime

how long? ive had it on for a few hours now and it doesnt let me boot
im pretty sure the issue here is that the charger driver is here but doesnt allow it to charge
at least im guessing..

3-4 hours I guess, and no it's not like that the driver won't allow, the charger driver just sets some bits in the hardware (smb136/347). Everything is mostly managed by the hardware itself. On wall power it should take in 1.5A as well

oh, my cable doesnt allow <500ma charging (iphone cable only allows usb charging when used on a samsung tablet)
ive left it for over 4 hours now and it still doesnt seem to work..
im guessing im going to have to inject voltage externally or hook up a different battery to this one temporarily so i can get some charge in this one
but for now, its a brick..
