Database Develop

[Q] How do I participate to the discussion of CM11 dev?

The forum doesn't allow me to post on that thread. and it doesn't allow me to send private message. I am getting very frustrated!
Below is my original message. Anybody please kindly forward it to the page. I am hoping it is useful for the devs.

Hi Cars,
I can't post to the thread (the forum doesn't welcome new users?).
Some fiddling suggests to look at the the block device IO / ext filesystem.
With CM11 0106(yours and the one on the first post) and 0105, I experience a lot of reboots / random FCs(like many others reported).
logcat records exceptions for writing files for FC'ed processes. Turns out /data is mounted ro.
In dmesg, I see a lot of block IO errors ( can't find superbloocks etc) in dmesg. /data is remounted io after these IO errors.
The hardware seems to be OK. I checked the devide (/dev/block/mmc0blk0p17) with dd, zeroing the entire partition / read out the entire partition to /dev/null in adb recovery (.5 version not the latest .6). no IO errors is reported durng these full-partition tests. Also no IO error with 10.1 (latest on your all cm thread, the one from last december).
Strongly pointing to block device/flash IO module. The difference in the kernel between recovery and the kernel in CM11 0106(all versions) or even maybe just the difference between 0106 and last reported working build(1225? I didn't test it) may help us to pin it down. What changes were in the upstream cm source between these dates?
Thanks for working on these roms!

Thanks for the info, I will forward your message. I remember having some helpful things to post and being frustrated by the 10 post requirement.

Reply to Murphy71984 2-3 second delay after pressing power button
I am trying to post a reply to Murphy71984 question, but I have not made enough posts yet. Please move to the correct post, thanks.
Murphy71984: Love this ROM, only problem I'm having is turning the screen on. It always takes a good 2-3 seconds after pressing the power button, anyone else getting this?
I am also having the delay with the power button and knock on (double tap to wake). I have conducted several tests to try and isolate the problem. What I found out was while using the Tasker app in a combination that bypassed the lock screen (keyguard off in Tasker or Secure Settings app), I would get a delay of 2-3 seconds (regardless of the lock screen type, slide, face, pin...). Once I disabled the keyguard off setting, the phone would respond immediately without delay, using both the power button or knock on.
The first thing I tried was Lawlrus suggestion to use Art vs Dalvik. I switched to Art but still had the same delay. Using Art, the phone seems to respond faster to some things, but did not affect the wake delay. I followed that up with a series of tests changing the lock screen type and keyguard on/off in Tasker and Secure Settings. The keyguard setting was the problem with my phone. I was using the keyguard disable feature as a convenience while using certain bluetooth devices. Hopefully this info can help you isolate your problem.

Awesome ROM, thanks for all your hard work. Congrats on your engagement too!
1.5 is working great for me on 26A bootstack. Tethering working without modifying settings and shows connected devices. Heads up includes simple directions to get it working (probably worked fine before, I just didn't know how to properly enable it). GPS working without replacing the GPS.conf file or additional software.
Thanks again!

I cant flash it!
I was trying to flash this Rom with TWRP but it gave me this error:

I dont know what it means, please help!!

Lollipop and Spirit ROM?
Any chance we see a 5.0.1 version of Spirit or should i look elsewhere. Any recommendations for stable Lollipop Roms?

Is there Android 5.1.1 Mod with working FDE?

Hi,
is there a mod with android 5.1.1 with working encryption?
i actually have a more specific question about the kernel used in the latest CM12.1 novafusion rom for this devicebut since i have fewer then 10 posts i have to ask here :/.
and i checked the forum for related threads and i found a few, but nothing in regard to that specific mod and device. (i found questions, no answers)
there is enough room at the end of partition for encryption and the fs is ext4 which seems to be needed for device encryption.
Still i get the error:
E/Cryptfs ( 2221): Cannot load dm-crypt mapping table.
which stems from "static int load_crypto_mapping_table" in cryptfs.c
which may be because CONFIG_CRYPTO_SHA256 isnt enabled in kernel.
any way to check that on running kernel?
best regards,

need help with SN

Hello.
I have flashed my smartphone Asus Rog 2 Tencent Edition
raw firmware WW_ZS660KL_16.0622.1907.33_M3.13.33.26-ASUS_1.1.134_Phone-user
The process was successful. The device passes the Safety Test.
But the serial number of the device turned into C4ATAS000000
I tried to make a hard cut and flash the device again, but the result remained the same
in log file "fastboot.log" i see my real SN

Magisk not showing any applets

I have busybox and magisk hideprops config modules installed. When I open terminal emulator and run su and magisk --applets, only su and resetprops come up. Any fix for this or am i doing something wrong?

I can only see two applets in documentation. the other commands were used to be separate binaries up to Magisk v21.4
