which, if any, roms for Android v2.1 up have a working Camera, Wifi and GPS ?
I would love to upgrade my wife's Tattoo to 2.1 or 2.2,
but cannot decide if any of those roms on here actually have a working camera
these are must have for her, and I did see in one post that none of them do have camera working.
believe me I have searched ... but cannot make my mind up either way !
Camera don't fully working on tattoo froyo and gingerbread custom roms yet.
At this time you can take and save photos, but no video and no preview yet.
The developers working on this though and I think that very soon we will have a fully working camera.
All other hardware(FM radio too) work fine.
thanks for that ...
I really appreciate the work of developers, and it will be well worth the wait

hi
question answered thread Closed
pls ask future questions in the Q & A its a stiky or the genral section
I made this thread based on what i think ROM's must or should have 4 an average use
- STABLE, with no sd unmounting or unespected reboots
- Of course, it must read the SD, also, would be good to have an file manager, light like OI file manager, even if its aosp, cause some of us stores our apps on SD as backups
- All kind of wireless networks, GSM mainly, WiFi, USB and Radio for those who listen!
-Clean Launcher to let the user set it 4 his needs
-mic, dialer, dial UI, messagin working
-BT handset / and jack working ofc
-speaker
-Good or the laster battery it can be
-DSP or louder sound
-Not too laggy UI or ROM
-OC could be added as well, but it is not really needed, unless the ROM its a bit laggy
-Working camera, cause we all need to take a picture often, even when its about our studies (I take pics to ppt )
-LG stock apps like Alarms, calendar, energy control, Google apps, voice, weather and news
-Of course it'd be cool to have youtube to watch somes How-To about anything
-Rooted, its not TRULY needed, but lets face it, we all want it, or some doesn't know how, or just cannot reach it!
All those things should be on any ROM, unless its a BETA or A release with KNOWN bugs which will be FIXED as ppl/users detects then
Suggestions:
-LG IME keyboard
-Astro File Manager (I make apps backups from Astro)
-Docs to go
-Touchpal / Swipe
-XDA forum app to follow our respective roms thread or any thread we want
-OC and Swapp utility/support
Guess thats the bassic things users are looking 4 + performance, i also know not ALL roms will have but it could work as a guide or a task list of what to do with a rom in development, also after making a rom, it'd be cool to get a test period with some users, or all of them to fix possibles bugs and then make it clean!
Feel free to post any other thing u think its needed or any suggestion
Dont see point of this topic... dont rom like, dont use it.
Sent using Tt.
Taking that as main duty, just sug
You sound as though you know how to build a rom without all this probs trust me its alot harder
I do not know actually, just attached them as task to be done or something, if a rom complishes most of the features, and gets real stable, it could be as an Official one! Repeat, its just a suggestion...
Yes I know
Really, this topic makes no sense. You're indirectly saying that you want a fully working ROM. If any ROM has a missing File Manager, tell that respective developer. And Developers know what should be working in their ROMs and even they want their ROMs to be bugless!
If you want any added apps, you can add them yourself. Instead it's better that the ROM is as clean as possible
No sd unmounting or unexpected reboot? i get that with LG's stock kernel.
Developers here aren't LG software engineers, we don't pay them to develop roms etc... We don't have the rights to expect everything working perfectly anyways. LG makes mistakes as well.
LG stock apps require porting because those apps does not work standalone without LG's framework.
Yeah, the camera takes crappier shots than the 'lowest end' 1mega pixel cybershot my parents gave me which was bought in 2001. But I'd agree that some users without image quality expectations would want a working camera
Root is needed by most users for integrating apps into system file, debugging and modify rom itself on phone. If you're the one who plays with your phone and thinking how amazing it is, well...... *no comment*.... 'no life'.
Not going to comment on overclock becouse I don't truly need it and will buy a new phone soon.
Root explorer allows root access, not astro.
In combination, suggesting is; add your own apps. You're not paying the developer neither does your opinion or the way you use your phone apply to everyone else on xda.
@mrandroid
lol nice avatar!
@chaos
don't feel insulted! we are just pointing you in the right way! everyone makes mistakes!
like me when i sent a pm to joost for the first time asking him which is the best rom as i am new to android and confused things like swiftdroid quarx etc.
Im not feeling insult, don't wqorry, i know it must be a senseless thread, d'u think it shal be deleted? :/
I think this topic is in the wrong category. The android development forum is getting more and more crowded. I think this topic should be in the general forum.
Though getting there, how to delete it from here?

This is a very small development community anyways. It should be included in development just to grab developer's attention
Enigma GIN & ICE
your specs for a rom done

That's what I made it for, have devs attention so they give their best and take care of users attention so they give their best for to the ROM

HI !
Almost all ICS I have downloaded and used for a while.
I mean all the trusted names.
However, none mention about zoom of camera as versus in stock .( zoom in ICS camera is like just a token... like..Now You Can have it too ! Not a serious zoom function.) And I know the developers are working very hard at it but please, update us as to if there is a chance to have a better camera later !
Please tell me if later versions of ICS have better zoom and also lots of modes and settings provided in the stock camera ? It would come gradually I am sure but whenever a new rom is released, these subjects are never mentioned !
Further, would ICS provide better Contact pictures in future ? ( though I guess this is more Google problem of HD pics to consumers but with such expensive high end phones we expect quality. )
I tried going to contacts.Google.com and edit my pics but it's still the same ! And pardon my not knowing this but what is an HD photograph ! I mean, I use my camera, click and insert as contact pic ! If that is not HD and cannot be nice and clear in a contact list then Google needs to do some hardworking here. Customers paying so much money for phones will not edit pictures one by one !
Please kindly let me know if possible. An update on Camera and Contacts would be so nice time to time.
Thanks!

You talk like youve tried all possible ICS roms, did you ? o,O
Im using Dark Knight 4 (fixed by flashing it OVER DK3) and i dont know what kind of features you're asking for but my camera works fine for me . You should give it a try .
I think they mean by HD photo ,a photo with higher resolution ? Maybe higher than our SGS can take .
Hi everyone, I'm new here and would really appreciate some help with my new phone from Mobilicity. Samsung Galaxy Mini (SGH-T499)
After rooting, unlocking and installing all my apps I realized my phone doesn't come with Native Chinese support. I can type some chinese characters while some appear as squares. CSR from mobilicity said that the phone doesn't have Native Chinese support and won't provide any support.
I'm guessing the only thing left for me to do is installing a custom rom with native chinese support (if there is even one available). It's not a big deal but my girlfriend's parents only understands chinese and it would be a lifesaver...
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot in advance.
PS: In case there isn't a rom with native chinese support. Since i factory resetted my phone, I might as well install a custom rom since stock rom is garbage.
What's the latest custom rom without bugs and is 100% stable? Any help on this would be great. Thanks in advance.
For samsung dart, i doubt that there might be any but one custom rom i suppose.
Try searching inside the galaxy mini android development forum for it.
or google it.
Edit: i was wrong.
Found a cm7 port for dart on madteam forum…
Try this.
Dev's comments
Partially working:
Camera (no preview but can take pictures, unable to adjust effects, brightness, sharpness, contrast and exposure)
Not working:
Video Camera (depends on the camera preview to work) Touchkey Backlight - Nothing wrong with it. Just have to finish adding support for it in the liblights daemon which I am almost done. But is a bit buggy.

Yea i found that one too. Too bad that the camera doesn't fully work. Guess i'm stuck with stock rom then...
Well don't think so that camera is a priority (atleast not for me xD),atleast you can give it a try..
wild guess:
search for miui roms - they should have it, since the genuine software is chinese (beware stability issues though)
Lol the galaxy dart is having hard time when it comes to custom roms and you're suggesting for MIUI roms.
Insane , try porting some already.
yea well no one seems to give a damn about this crappy phone lol...
guess its stock rom for now..
Well there is always hope,
You can try compliling cm7 from source, if you want to or modify stock roms to your needs.
Good luck.
Since people say on every rom released with OpenKirin source codes that there are same bugs on every rom, I joined forces with some of my friends and in result=> KirinMixTeam Development, name's not fully decided, so it may change, but that's not important.
The important thing is that we already started working on a new P8 Lite source code: https://github.com/KirinMixTeam/device_huawei_hi6210sft/tree/AOKP-7.1.2 ,there are much more bugs to fix, I'm sure ril will not work on first hand, at least hopefully wifi works.
Our team goal is to develop for as much as we can, and now that I've finnaly repaired my computer I have 2TB of free space to develop on.
Reminder: Do not take our team as a rival to OpenKirin or haky86, or any other developers, we do not want to do that, take this as some good news that P8 Lite will get even more developers to work on its platform and others!
Also, since for now we're just 3 members in the team, maybe one of you want to get in. PM me or @AymenDe7 for further information, but if you think you are not ready for this please do not fill our inbox worthless.
P.S. Do not overhype already, wait until at least a bootable rom to be sure that our source code works. Tommorow I'm already testing first build of AOKP 7.1.2, so we'll keep you updated!
Thank you.:good:
Wow so P8Lite isn't dead
Nice news !!
I just want to get a stable rom that consists no bugs, and as stable as huawei's stock firmware. I've tried all of the custom roms and there are lots of annoying bugs such as,
slow and laggy interface,
poor app performance
720p 60fps playback issue
headset issue,
low download speeds on my mobile network etc. etc.
I've now converted back to stock and unrooted firmware, I will be waiting and checking for a %100 stable custom rom. good to see you're determined to make a good rom, good luck and thank you.

Nor OpenKirin roms nor haky86's are slow, they get almost all of them 30K in antutu. Problem with 720p 60fps is related to codecs, but I don't know what causes the headset issue.

Thank you.
I would be interested to learn more about android. I'm not excepting you to hold my hand through android basics. But if there is anything i can do. Feel free to pm me. I have some kinda google skills
Good news, best wishes!! ✌
I learn how to upstream kernels, not helpful for you, but eh maybe i will question some things in the future.
Thank you so much for your support!
For your interest, but not interesting, I'm already compiling AOKP 7.1.2 for Nexus 6P. After that will get back to P8 Lite.
wait wait best ROMs kkk
Guys dont take me wrong if any of you are willing to try ROM building but cant do it due to various reasons like Computing power or HDD space or slow Internet speeds etc.., . Here is the best alternative even a small mobile is enough to build the ROM.

@XTutorials
I wish you luck but in my opinion you (and we as community) should focus on fixing bugs in OpenKrirn's source rather than making a new ROM from scratch
Actually on their nougat we just need video recording, 60fps videos (here emui 4.1 kernel and blobs can fix this I think), GPS and deepsleep to have a fully functional ROM (I don't count dual SIM).
HWC is unfortunately a different story...
That's the best option, we don't want other roms, we want fixes for current ones, like thst cpu fix... Maybe GPS, deepsleep, wifi fix etc

Unfortunately, in my opinion I don't think is right to just continue OK source code and post it as yours.
How it is said, better do it slowly than doing it fast and bad.
I know you really want asap a fully-stable ROM, and we put a lot of effort in doing that. Expect a booting ROM in 1-2 weeks from now.
Thank you for understanding!

I'm not talking about posting it as yours I'm talking about contributing to their project.
Pls don't get me wrong I know it's hard to develop on this phone (and we don't pay you for it) but you will probably also have problems with your project (maybe even the same as OpenKirin and XePeleato when there was no OpenKirin yet). What's the reason of doing the same job again?

Well, I'm working for the first time source codes ( working seriously, not just edit BoardConfig and other .mk's) and I need some practicing and learning, so first ROM will come out harder, if you let me practice and learn then I will fix bugs and build roms faster.
Thank you.
