So, I have two questions:
1) when I use the cm file manager on root user mode, /storage/emulated/0 doesn't exist. When I change it to user mode, I'm stuck in there and can't remove certain files because of a lack of permissions. Is this normal?

2) since I'm posting, what does lpa.decode=true do for us? I like my dsp manager and I'm wondering the benefits of this. I tried googling before but got a little confused.

Storage/emulated/0 is just a shortcut to data/media/0. Press the bookmarks button and go to /data/media/0 instead

@invisiblek, have you played at all with (intelligently) updating some of the vendor files from the GPE? Our vendor tree was updated to the GPE excluding the camera. I did try blindly updating all the libs / bins that the M7 had updated to and that caused both the camera and the GPS to break. I don't know if a more intelligent subset would be likely to fix any problems and if you've already looked at it?

Updating the GPS libs definitely won't work as we're still using the AOSP HAL and libs for it. We'll need a custom HAL to use any other libs.

I've been rather silently playing with the speaker amp for the last few days. I've got it to sort of work at this point by mimicking the sense init sequence and removing support for tfa9887l (since we don't have the extra speaker). It's pretty finicky though and crashes sometimes on switches. For example hanging up a call while on speaker causes the amp to be muted until you initialize a call not on speaker and hangup, but doing this also seems to get it to initialize the rest of the way. I believe the m7 guys are already working on that issue though.

In General Settings change the access mode to "Prompt User". As long as you select to always give the app root access in SuperUser it shouldn't prompt you.

Still having Wi-fi issues here on 9/15...Is there a log I could pull off my phone that would indicate what's going on with the Wi-fi radio/driver?

If I watch the Wi-Fi connections screen, it'll display my SSID with "Connected" status along with the dozens of other nearby connections as usual, then a few seconds later, say "Searching for Wi-Fi networks...", connect, and repeat.

Try crpalmer's kernel.

Yea, we should be building our own HAL anyway. I haven't spent any time on this for a few days, been a busy weekend. Hopefully get back on this tonight.

Im on the old Unofficial rom because I have heard the camera does not work, and I need the camera for work every day. is this true?

If i dont wipe everything and just dirty flash (wipe dalvik and cache) and flash from unofficial to the Official rom, will I keep my pictures, and will the camera work on the official rom?

If tha answer is yes, i can now switch to the official rom.

PS. i will be running palmers new official kernel, if i make the switch.

It works but the focus is sketchy. Doesn't take as good pics as it can.

Hit thanks if I helped! check out my site at www.circuitsaviors.com

OK figured I'd give this ROM a try and so far really liking it. Clean install with crpalmers kernel and no restoring of apps+data through ROM Toolbox Pro. Very snappy and a pleasure to use.

Any channels on IRC for the DNA? Trying to build CM, having issues.

#cm-htc on freenode =)

Bleh...so I went to a stock rom, to get a log of gps to see what happens when it actually works, and of course now it works in cm since I got the lock there.

Now I need to figure out how to make it fail again haha...

One thing that someone should try, if they are getting NO gps locks (check using GPS Status from the market) is to add this line to the end of your build.prop and reboot:
Code:
ro.gps.set_privacy=1

Not really banking on this working but it's worth a shot.

Also, for anyone interested, here's a log (both from cm) of it working and not working:
Not working (before going to stock and obtaining a lock): http://pastebin.com/mECpDFfX
Working (afterwards): http://pastebin.com/iA5uGJG0

    • You've utilized the search function of the forums. Nothing irritates me more than lazy people who do not search for an answer before asking.
    • If you are the only one having a problem. Boot into recovery, wipe data/factory reset, reflash the rom/gapps and nothing else. Boot up and see if the problem persists.
    • Make sure your post is relevant to this thread. "I'm having problems rooting/unlocking" is NOT relevant here.

    Dev thread, please refrain from useless posts like this.

    How is the GSM services working on the devices?

    Download it and report back

    Is DSP Manager crashing for anyone else? I'm trying to narrow down whether it is a rom issue or something I did (quite possible as I played with Viper4android sound mod and simply flashed over it.)

    If you are putting audio mods on a ROM and then reporting back to the ROM's thread with issues, you're doing it wrong.

    Any one know if HDMI out works with this rom?

    Download it and report back

    This morning I had a crash. Clean install with crpalmers latest kernel.

    In case anyone wants to take a look.

    ZOMG! A log file! I can't believe it! Its almost like this thread is in the development section of the forums and we should be attaching logs for ALL reported problems!!!
    (Granted its not the stock kernel, but this particular issue should be apparent in either)


    Seriously though, this thread is already 29 pages long. If we were to remove all the useless crap, it would probably be around 3 pages long.
    Lets stay on topic guys, logs or it didn't happen.

    Known bugs:
    Please do not post about these, we know they are broken.
    • Bluetooth audio skips - apparently, for now, using the performance or conservative governor will fix it

    Please do not ask questions in this thread. Its for development. Please post logs when reporting problems or don't bother posting.
    If it becomes a problem we can create a Q/A thread.

    Guys,

    OP has asked that we keep this more dev talk and less general and off topic, so let's try to keep this geared towards that.

    Any flame will be dealt with swiftly.

    From now on we keep it respectful, and we keep it on topic and related to the actual development of this ROM. Upload logcats, and instructions on how to reproduce the bug if possible. If you are making modifications to the ROM then having issues you weren't having before the modification, well you know...

    Remember there is a Q&A forum too.

    I'll be checking in from time to time.

    Thanks :)
