[ROM][NIGHTLY] CyanogenMod 7 Nightlies Discussion

CyanogenMod for the Vibrant currently contains intermittent issues with the emergency dialing system. I strongly urge you NOT to use CyanogenMod on the Vibrant until they can be fixed.
Help by testing a test CM9 build for it​

awesome! nice to have you as "The bringer of CyanogenMod", if it wasn't for this great community, vibrant would be dead!

I know you aren't in charge of these things Fault but any idea when we'll get a new nightly?

By the looks of it, we might get one tonight.

The latest nightly link seems down. Would someone else confirm?

I don't even know who the specific cm7 vibrantmtd mantainer is (if any), that's why I asked if the project had been declared dead. No sign of activity since late February, while other phones have been getting constantly updated nightly builds. There will be a reason for sure.

°_° The OP guy is the maintainer, and we will have cm7 nightlies either this week or next. Cm servers are being upgraded...

Glacier hasn't had any since ours.
Captivate has had 1 since ours.
Fascinate hasn't had any since ours.
Galaxy S hasn't had any since Feb 16th.
It doesn't mean that it's dead...

does this mean what i think it means
cm: Tag 7.2.0-RC1​
looks like cm7/gingerbread is reaching its ripeness!

It still lacks proper TV out (no hardware decoding). And I'm not sure whether the mute/unmute bug has been solved or even whether the GPS is truly functional... apart from those, yep, the ROM seems quite stable...

O never really use TV out or GPS so I wouldn't know, but the mute/unmute should be fixed by now,
the mainteiner is that one who deals with device specific bugs...ask him what's the status with those two.

I'm not sure if the mute-unmute bug is localized to Vibrant. (The changelog was copied from Captivate, which said the mute-unmute was hopefully fixed, Galaxy S also says it.)
(I'm not saying I won't I'll look into it though)
The mute-unmute bug is not fixed. I don't know about TV out, my cable is faulty. raymonddull tested it for me, he got black and white, which is more than I got, but his cable was faulty too!
GPS is most likely poo. Just flash YAGF2 or what ever works for you.

update-cm-7-20120226-NIGHTLY-vibrantmtd. Never work on my vibrant cause of the systemUI error. Are they going to build another nightly or is this the end of the nightly build?

TV out works but only partially. Its quality is worse than Froyo's (Samsung's official) and it shows a black screen when someone tries to play a hardware accelerated video.
The mute/unmute bug most of the times is there.
GPS may work to some, it won't to most and the fixes are hit or miss on equal measure. Personally I have last had my GPS working on Froyo days. I know it's not a big deal for most people here on XDA, but for the rest of the world (outside XDA) GPS is kind of a big deal and it's one of those modules that makes smartphones to be "smart"...
Anyhow the situation for CM7 (on our Vibrant) is about the same as in those GB ports from i9000; i.e. most things work, not all. If one needs the full experience of the phone *has to* go back to Froyo ... sadly.

Yes, everything works on Froyo as intended... in fact because TV out is a feauture I often use (useful for presentations and such) I often have to go back to Froyo...

Can someone clarify - is "official" CM implementation of ICS for DInc being worked on? Or has DInc been dropped from the list of official CM targets for ICS due to some reasons (obsolete/lack of driver binaries/etc)?

It's not supported mostly because there's no maintainer to submit patches to the CM team The same for other older phones like Evo. Now there may be other reasons but this is the primary one.

Woah, let's not start rumors. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=24081082 read that one, as well as mine on the two pages before that.
In essence, we have one maintainer, CUViper, and he's busy with work. Once it settles down, he'll try and get us up and running. Drk.hd is doing his best to get as much up as possible for CUViper to look at through Gerrit. Meanwhile, I'm just helping out where I can, mainly by troubleshooting and answering questions like these. Not much else I can do with no computer.
Tl;Dr yes it's being worked on. Eta: none. Promises for getting official CM9 on the Inc: see answer for eta.
Editorial side note @invisblek: since you got this at goo.im, why don't you make it Goo Manager compatabile (or ROM Manager compatible)?

Happy to have some sort of Cm9 than none. Weather or not it gets supported.

Looks like proximity sensor (turning screen on and off during calls when moved away and close to face) is not working either.
Great work, glad to see this thread open up and hope that things progress.

new build coming up
sensors fixed (i was using drk.hd's old build method)
prox, brightness, accelerometer, etc
goo-inside.me'ified too

With the builds previous to the one you just mentioned I've been having force restarts. Besides that and the rotation issue, it's beatiful.
Great work!

@invisiblek, you don't have to upload the md5 file at goo, since it automagically creates and displays it. Goo Manager app actually checks and compares them, too.

Does it reboot all the way to your bootloader or just the cm boot screen?
If the former, I'd be interested in seeing your /proc/last_kmsg after one of these reboots. The latter, I'd recommend a data wipe.

Invisiblek my God you have been gone so long that I don't think a lot of people remember you were a legend here when it came to dinc kernel development and a tie for the best with Chad's so let me first say I am stoked to see tour return. Second I just finished downloading your first nightly and I'm gonna report back to you about it after I flash. Lastly a question for ya and I'm sure is on all the minds of anyone that ever uses your gb kernels....any chance of you taking stab at updating your work and making an ics kernel for us dinc users. I mean dude I'd be happy honestly if you just did a couple of betas just to get the bugs out and then made one final release. I'd be like a giddy school boy on the night before Christmas. You shouldn't of seen my eyes when I was reading pons reply and he said your name I was like huh that can't be him and then I went back to op and checked out your profile and long behold it was you. Anyway ty for all your work now and in the past in my eyes your a legend with dinc development.

Haha thanks. I'll be honest though, much of the work I did on kernels was kanging other peoples' code though.
I've been planning to roll a kernel one of these days...

Is there a ICS kernel we can run with this? I tried the incredkernel ics and as soon as the boot screen loaded phone went blank.

Sent from my X Phone using xda developers app

Yep 21st build can confirm still no Wifi and speakerphone still whistles... But they managed to change the boot screen so I guess its all good lol. Starting to lose patience with custom rom's now me. I posted an in depth idea back in August about CM10.1 about this speakerphone problem. About the top mic not being used and phone always using the bottom one which is next to the speaker and 99% sure this is what causes our whistles and echo problems. Nobody has given a reply as to why we can't try this as its what stock rom does - hit speakerphone and the bottom mic is disabled and top one only active. Devs seem more interested in fiddling with mic gains or reducing the speaker volume which is a bit of a cop out. What we really need is to not use the mic thats next to the speaker for speakerphone calls! Its never going to work properly without compromising something else like reducing volume or mic gain so the speaker won't feedback with the mic. Compare it to taking a picture towards a light. You can mess with exposure and white balance to get a picture but its never going to be what it would be if the light was behind you and not shining into the lens. Same for speakerphone. You're not going to be able to have volume up high, mic gain at optimum and the speaker and mic next to each other. It's just logical that the further apart they are the less they will interfere with each other...
Speakerphone bug quite winds me up really considering it is phones we are running these custom roms on and a simple issue with a phone function hasn't been resolved since mid August! Its like saying hey long as we have all these features and build from latest android source who cares if a basic phone function doesn't work when I think that should be the priority before adding all other bells and whistles (no pun intended).

OK so because people are so annoyed with this bug I'm going to post a fix to CM gerrit - it's up to the CM team whether they accept it.
I've known a fix for this for ages BTW - it's fixed in my Omni build - I just haven't bothered because of CM's attitude/my commitment to omni.
Plus Kali- et all the CM team have been busy with newer devices.

I will try tilals and aokp build tomorrow hope they work on dirt flash.
About cm10.2 wifi was working for 2 min and then it was gone. Havent found much changes in that short test. Also no dirt flash back to 10.1 possible. Had to wipe evrything.

Tilal you are a good guy! I've looked at changes and they look very promising just hope they get reviewed and added quickly so we can test a nightly. I knew there was more to snd_soc_msm than the volumes but I couldn't work out which DEC and ADC numbers to change to what... Is there any way to add these changes to a existing install so we don't have to wait for CM? I know you can edit snd_soc with hexeditor and reboot but it looks like your fix is dependant on other fixes as well? Like do CM have to implement your thermal fix and noise supression before the changed snd_soc will work as you intend? Sorry i'm not too familiar with gerrit and how all these patch sets get reviewed and tested I just try and bring peoples attention to bugs if I can think of a new solution to try.
Cheers, Matt

Thanks. I apologise that it did go on a bit but people have took it in the way I intended and tilal's fix seems to do a lot more than anyone else's so its a good result for the community. I'm back on FXP240 for now. I tried early build of Omni but it got me stuck in a bootloop for some reason. I had the bubbles boot screen and it just stopped there. When I tried to get back into recovery it wouldn't even do that so I ended up having to fastboot flash a new boot.img then my sdcard0 was corrupt so I had to adb push FXP240 back and it became annoying. Can't wait til the official omni nightly's start and i'll definitely be giving it a good once over. Don't mind the look of PACrom either that has a lot of customisation options if not a little too many. Hopefully Omni will be somewhere between CM and PAC in the end and we'll have a great all rounder to choose from.

[Q] CM11 Nightly: InCall volume question

Hello everybody,
so now this is my first posting.
I took an advantage on ebay to get me a near new I9000 for a low price. I was interested to see how Android smartphones
work, what is inside and how to customize.
In between time and after reading much about ROM's and Kernels and so on i decided to go for the CyanogenMod ROM by pawitp.
When i finally got my I9000 to my surprise it was already rooted and had a CM11 flavor onboard.
So i took the chance and made a backup and did a full wipe etc.. and got the latest Nightly (2014_04_22) and the gaaps up
and running quite nicely.
No problems so far.
Everything is fine except the in-call volume on the handset.
Speaker volume and headset volume seem quite o.k. and are manageable through DSP Manager .
However, the earpiece volume is maxed-out but still much lower than on my stock S3 mini, which was given to me by my employer.
Stock and beyond any rooting or so...understandable?
So i read a lot and tried various apps (one after the other) (Voodoo sound, Volume+ to name two) as recommended here.
No avail. Volume of the earpiece seems to be quite a different beast.
What i did not try, and hopefully will not have to, are Meltus Volume hacks or manipulating values by the service codes.
So, does anybody have an idea if the CM11 will get around this problem one day or the other?
I do not want to use another ROM nor do i feel i want another Kernel to mix with.
Perhaps this thread is obsolete, so please put me into the right direction if so.
Or, maybe someone who is allowed to do so can transport this Q into the ROM thread of pawitp.
Thank you all for you attention and have a nice day.

Speaker volume and headset volume seem quite o.k. and are manageable through DSP Manager .
However, the earpiece volume is maxed-out but still much lower than on my stock S3 mini, which was given to me by my employer.
Stock and beyond any rooting or so...understandable?
So i read a lot and tried various apps (one after the other) (Voodoo sound, Volume+ to name two) as recommended here.
No avail. Volume of the earpiece seems to be quite a different beast.
What i did not try, and hopefully will not have to, are Meltus Volume hacks or manipulating values by the service codes.
So, does anybody have an idea if the CM11 will get around this problem one day or the other?
I do not want to use another ROM nor do i feel i want another Kernel to mix with.
Perhaps this thread is obsolete, so please put me into the right direction if so.
Or, maybe someone who is allowed to do so can transport this Q into the ROM thread of pawitp.
Thank you all for you attention and have a nice day.

It might be the highest limit to the i9000 (It's an old phone, at least appreciate it for even running). However, I suggest you do change your ROM once, just to check if it is a problem with your ROM. If you do change, I suggest trying Paranoid Android or OmniROM. At times, the Kernel might also make a change. If again you do want to change your Kernel, I suggest Semaphore 3.4.3 or Mackay Kernel
Hit Thanks if I helped!

Thank you for the answer.
Sure: You are right it is an "old" phone.
And i appreciate the work of the volunteers to keep it up and running.
Hopefully i will find the time during the next days to follow your advice.
Maybe i will even try to go back to stock and check how the phone behaves in it's original environment.
At the moment i am puzzled by another problem. I miss FM radio so much.
Seems as if this feature is missing in a whole lot of ROMs because of massive changes of the "ekosystem" to put it in my words.
But this is not the thread for that. I have to read and learn a lot.
Again, thank you.
Regards,
Frank

About the Radio thing, I think you can download another Radio app like this one. If that doesn't work, I'm guessing then Radio might be disabled in your ROM. Semaphore has the option of enabling or disabling FM Radio.

Ah, yes. I see. Thank you. Looks like Spirit2 from the play store.
I'll have a look into the reviews.

Yes.
I went back to the stable release CM10.2 .
Somewhere on the internet i found a free beta from Spirit2 and installed it just for a test.
It did not run smooth but i could grab FM and listen by speaker and headphones.
What made me nervous is the "speaker damage" disclaimer...
As for the in-call volume: With 10.2 it seems to be louder.
Headphones and speaker are fine but earpiece (or handset?) still is a bit quiet for to use in noisy environments.
But anyway. Before taking further action i test a while.
I want to use this phone as a private phone when i am on commissioning jobs. I often work at industrial sites and since i am not allowed
to make any private calls off my companies' S3 mini i thought it was a good idea to carry a relatively cheap and reliable smartphone
with me.
Besides the academical aspect to know what makes a smartphone work i want a useful and stable operating system without any bloatware.
I will keep in touch with the CM11 thread and from time to time check if they finally achieve a stable release.
Maybe a shoot a second SGS off ebay just to look after OMNI ROM as you suggested. :laugh:
By now i will stay with the CM10.2 and see if it is stable.
And yes, i am going to root my wifes's Xperia Pro
Thanks again for your attention!

Xperias are a tough nut to crack. But, you will have fun rooting it. It took me 3 days (Spent 4 hours each) to get root and Install CM on an Xperia Arc S!

Just a small update

I got me another i9000 for cheap.
Running OMNI KitKat for now with nightly build.
That is a really nice ROM with a smooth feel and just as customizable as a an average user with passion for android can manage.
So thank you, Gokulbalram for the hint.

Try Neo Kernel along with it! (Why'd you get two? *Starts laughing*)

I need one cellphone for "productive use". Means that is has to work.
So to try something, and run the risk of having software or hardware problems for a few days, i need another device.
Plus it is nice to see how official CM11 and official OMNI CM11 compete.
At the moment i would say that OMNI is a little bit upfront. I am going to ask my son to put his SIM card to
it and try out and see if it is stable.

At the moment, my i9000 runs Omni's latest nightlies. Also, I've flashed Neo Kernel. It's very smooth without much noticeable lag.

Blisspop/CM Rom now in Beta

Head over to the main G4 development page if you are interested in this for the H811/H815.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/development/h811-h815-blisspop-cyanogenmod-12-1-t3185593

There's still a long way to go. Most things are still broken and new builds will generally break things on a regular basis. Just be aware before heading over. The post doesn't need more Posts saying goodbye this/that isn't working, it's still very much a WIP.

True, and the OP doesn't have the most recent build where most stuff is actually working. I'm running the 10/15 build (page 76-78...somewhere in there, posted by codeworkx) and most of my audio is working. Haven't tried bluetooth, but I rarely use it, apparently voice calls have an echo, but I never call anyone, either. The only thing I really use that has an issue is the camera that delays on opening, but I'm sure that'll be worked out shortly. As soon as codeworkx got to work on it, it's honestly been pretty stable for a WIP, but I think I have a higher tolerance for broken builds and features, having been a crackflasher for 7 years now. I'm just happy to be back on AOSP/CM at this point with this phone.

I hope nobody thought I was saying it is ready for prime time! Just a heads up. I have not installed it yet as I will wait for a more highly functioning build, but I also know there is a thirst for development here, so I wanted to share the good news!!

Honestly, if you were to try the 10/15 build, you'd be surprised at how "ready from prime time" it actually is. I've been using it as my DD for the last 2 days and it's actually been pretty nice. Couple small things here and there, but the only thing that's affected me at all so far was the camera delay. Now that there's at least a dev or two that seems like they know what they're doing, I'm hoping development for AOSP/CM stuff starts picking up. The little time that codeworkx has put in so far has been looking extremely promising. (Not to take away from the OP on that, but code made it so that I can actually use it as a DD with sound.)

Hmmm, I didn't realize it was that far along. Between the 815 talk there, it has become tough to follow. I may give it a go. I assumed you did a complete wipe before installing? Thanks, @schreckles
EDIT: You don't use bluetooth I see, and I do quite a bit. From what I understand, that doesn't work, so that's a non-starter for me. Guess I'll wait.

Yup, sure did. Full wipe (especially when switching back and forth between CM/AOSP and stock roms) and then flashed the 10/15 H811 build that codeworkx posted the other day, along with the nano gapps he'd suggested.
Small issues: Your LED will stay lit up blue until you plug the phone in and unplug again. No biggie. No "OK Google" or anything that requires the phone mic for me thus far (ie Google Sound Search.) Camera takes approximately 4 years to open, but it does open, and the shots it produces aren't bad. They aren't as good as stock, but that's typically been the trade-off even since back in my OG Droid days when going from stock to non-stock base. Call audio, bluetooth, and NFC apparently have some issues still, but I rarely use any of those, so meh. Oh, and I get a popup stating "Settings has closed" every so often, but it doesn't affect anything. I'm sure I could find the cause if I was motivated, but I'm sure it'll get worked out soon enough.
...Mostly just stuff I can live without for now that's broken. I've even been using Xposed and some of my favorite modules without any ill effects.

So is it more or less a theme now or what? I know what CM is, but as far as functionality, is it quite a bit faster than stock or what?
Thanks!

I am assuming that this is the only public aosp build for the G4?

It's a completely different build of Android using different frameworks and whatnot. It's built upon AOSP and tweaked framework to make it CyanogenMod. I'm not sure if the one I am using currently is the one in this thread but so far it's been pretty smooth. There are definitely some issues but it's a lot further along than I though it would be. Kudos to those guys!
EDIT: That is the same build I am using (in case anyone is wondering).
