[Q] Update to CM5 as promised but nothing??

here is a post Cyanogen did back in June 30th of 2010
It’s been just under a week since Google released Froyo (Android 2.2) into the open-source world and we’ve made great progress on CyanogenMod-6 already. Approximately 20 of us on the CM team are working hard on merging all of the community-developed extras in, as well as porting to new devices. Google did a great job and really gave us the best foundation to start from this time around.
Here’s where we stand so far.. Most of the CyanogenMod extras have been merged. Some features are being reworked (like trackball settings), new device ports are well underway. The first devices to see CM6 experimental releases will most likely be the Nexus One and Droid simply because those are the devices that “just work”. The Dream/Sapphire port has everything working but one small issue remains. Wes Garner has the Slide port well underway. I don’t have a status report of the Desire, Incredible, and Evo versions at this time.
I’m expecting that we should have some experimental releases by the weekend, but please don’t spam us asking for ETAs.. We are just as excited to get this out as you are

Regarding updates to CM5.. A small update will be coming this weekend to fix a few bugs but the focus will remain on CM6!
Thanks to everyone who has been supporting us with testing, bugfixing, code, new features, and of course donations. CM is what it is because of the community. Thank you!
just curious for us not using froyo will there be an update to CM5??..

10char....

Bamp?
10char? anybody what to discuss the promise he made??

This is really not good that he promised something and then didn't fullfil this promise, but honestly... CM6 is so much better than CM5.08, personally I am not even thinking on trying 2.1 ROMs, I really don't understand why to bother with older software if newer gives you not only new features and same if not better speed and stability.

There is no point. Same reason why we don't see any progress on donut roms. They're old. 2.2 runs one hell of a lot better than any 2.1 roms did. Give up on CM 5 and come to the now.

I regret moving away from Donut (CM4.x). For me CM6 works worse than CM5 and CM 5 works worse than CM4. The only reason I am staying with CM6 is the hope that 6.1 will improve the situation. The main issue is the lack of memory and what follows as consequence (can't view big websites, can't take photos, apps close themselves due to lack of RAM, push mail does not work, etc.)
These problems are not always occuring, but they occur most of the time, especially if the last reboot is more than 2 or 3 hours in the past. I recommend waiting for CM6.1 and then reassess whether it is viable to switch.

This is a punishment for lack of exploring. I've been using 2.2 ROMs now for a while and aren't having any of the issues you're having. Did you mess with any of the cm settings? What about the adw launcher settings? All of these play a part in the functionality of the ROM. Some advice:
Under CM Settings > Performance Settings:
Code:
Use Compcache @ 25%
Disable JIT
Disable Surface dithering
Make sure Lock Home in Memory is checked
VM Heap Size 32m
For ADW Launcher:
Screen Preferences:
Code:
Make sure you are only using 3. This helps with the slowness
System Preferences:
Code:
Disable Scrollable Widget Support
Check System Persist
UI Settings:
Code:
Uncheck Desktop Dots
Uncheck Secondary ActionButtons
Uncheck desktop Indicator
With these settings, I have no problems running any 2.2 rom on my G1. Also, I have widgets on each of my screens.

when you press anything in setting or any app.. does it load instantly?
or is there a second or 2 lag? i strip my donut roms completly remove everything google including market, and i have 35.43 mb free on my data partition. its stupidfast. but csdi is the fastest @ that setting.
most of the time when i end apps with task killer i have 55 mb free.
so i can load it up with widgets if needed.
what im trying to say i have achieved that speed with froyo but only if my cpu is clocked @ 650+ all the time and super stripped. gah i rambled.. i hope you understand what im tying 2 say.

[DEV GUIDE]The purpose of HtcLoggers.apk

[NOTE: This information was passed to me by an anonymous source.]
***Thanks also to Joeykrim for helping me verify a few things on how this works - and for testing it out***
A lot of people have removed the due to not knowing what it did, and concern over the "big brother" possibility. Here is EXACTLY what the app is for, and how we in the dev community can utilize it. I have included the file for you to reinstall as needed. Installing it into /system/app will autoload it for you.
It's purpose is to provide logging of various aspects of the device when you're having issues, and help you identify exactly where those issues are occurring. This includes:
dumpstate (bug report)
dumpsys
Device logs
Radio logs
Events log
Kernel log
To use it:
Dial *#*#HTCLOG#*#* (*#*#482564#*#*)
You're presented with 3 options (Collect Log Files, Snapshot Report, System Loggers)
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
- Collect Log Files gives you options to move the log files to the SD card
- Snapshot Report let's you run "dumpstate" and "dumpsys"
- System Loggers gives you some options
- Device Logger
- Radio Logger
- Events Logger
- Kernel Logger
Enable the logs you want, then enable "Auto Start Logging"
- you need to do this in order to have the logs start
-
Hit the "Back" key twice to return to the home screen
Reboot and then wait for the issue to reproduce
When the issue does occur make note of what time the issue occured
Copy the logs off of your SD card and and find the time the issue occured and begin to analyze what was happening
When you're done, don't forget to go back into the HTC Logging and disable logging
Reboot to clear the HTC Logging auto start

I installed and pushed the dialer code on cm7 rc0 and it ran. I wonder if this would help the devs with accessing the radio thru a dialer code and app in AOSP, like htc uses? Its the app itself that responds to dialer codes.

Nice find i always wonder the hell was the apk for

It will definitely provide anyone - especially devs - with information necessary to track down the source of a problem. Glad to know it works on CM7.

jerdog, thanks for digging into this. I've always wondered about this apk

No problem. Me too - and figured others could use it.

Wow nice, no more adb logcat for some things, thanks

Well I tried it on a HTC MyTouch 3G 1.2(Magic) running Cyanogenmod 6.1(2.2.1) and could not get it to work. When I entered the last star in the sequence, the screen went black and then back to the dialer. Any ideals?
Ok it just automatically rebooted, removing apk.

Yeah this is in EVO 4G for a reason. On new versions of HTC phones they will probably have this - but right now it's only the EVO that does.

Thanks

thanks buddy

Great Work!
You are a prince for keeping at it when others gave up!! Thank you so much for this, I will be donating once I get it installed! With all the manufacturers trying to build bigger phones with larger screens (Dell Streak) it just floors me that you are the only one developing roms for an incredible 5" device like the X7510 which is an incredible value for the money. Please keep it up, eventually people will come back to this phone when they're bored of the puny sub 4" screens on other devices.
Kevin

Thankyou for the kind words
I found a bug in this rom. Its when sending an sms from contact list. Im trying to fix it.

where is microdrive?

Hi,
Rom works great. Faster than the July rom. Snappier. The band page now works (had to play around and noticed it defaults to the euro bands -I'm Tmobile US). But did notice the SMS bug from contacts. Also another major bug while you're at it - I can download email from all 3 of my email accounts but CANNOT open the actual message. It tries to but just can't open the actual window. FWIW: The stock Microsoft welcome email when you set up an account will open - but not a real email. Maybe this is related to the SMS bug?? Will test more tonight. Am donating now. Thanks again for the hard work. You're the lone ranger here!

This is for the x7510, which does not have microdrive.

While you are rebuilding rom - ATI Fix
Please disregard my post below. For some reason with this rom, the ati text file I attached doesn't work so I deleted it. Are you using newer ati video dlls than your July rom?
"I ran across this ATI fix months ago (can't remember where) but it will allow the ATI imageon "acceleration" setting in Coreplayer to work with MP4 files (Avi still won't work with acceleration). I just copy the modified txt file to my windows directory and suddenly the ati acceleration works. "

Thnxs but it doesn't work. The device won't boot.

Updated to 5.1!
5.1 UPDATE:
Changed build to 23563, more stable.
Fixed sms bug (may fix other bugs)
alyn99 this may fix the email bug.

Just realized this and pulled the file. Strange because it work great with the July rom.

I am going to flash the update.

SMS and email issue with the new rom is fixed! Thanks. I will test the rom more fully tomorrow but hadn't found any other issues so far except for the ones you fixed with 5.1

Update to 5.2. This update is optional. Only really upgrade if your not running 5.1 ect.

[ROM] pffmod Revoke permissions & Privacy mode

Long time no see.
Any way there is a new build this one is based on the latest and greatest from CM 7.1. the download link is below.
Spoofed permissions:
READ_PHONE_STATE - You can now make your device return spoofed data from the methods protected with READ_PHONE_STATE permission. There is a demo app
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
you can use to see the effect of spoofing and revoking READ_PHONE_STATE permission. Run the app revoke or spoof run the app again.
Since majority of time spend on READ_PHONE_STATE spoofing was about laying the needed infrastructure for spoofing in general, expect new spoofed permissions shortly.
ROM info:
This is a preview build bases on CM7 nightly builds. Some things may not work some features may be missing.
Some applications may not work properly with revoked permissions.
You can revoke permission of SYSTEM applications!!! DON'T DO IT UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING.. However reboot resets the permissions of the system applications so you probably can recover.
If an application is running changing some permissions like say INTERNET will not be fully applied until the application is restarted.
If you come from CM7 nightly or CM7 RCx you probably don't need to wipe. I something is not working do a wipe.
Google apps are not included. You need to download them separately and flash them right after the ROM.
It will probably require ClockworkMod 3.x to flash properly.
You uses it at your own risk and I cannot be held responsible for the consequences.
Some technical stuff:
If an application checks for its permissions it will appear that all required permissions are granted. This is done to keep some ad networks code happy. As far as I've tested this is safe since the permission check is done at the remote end of the call when protected method is invoked. Please report your findings.
Screen shot:
This is the extended Manage application screen.​

Great patch though Personally I feel this is great addition.Thanks for this! I'll try this and let you know.

new build with data spoofing see the first post.

Neat!
Is this based on something close to nightly 41? There's been a major bug recently, which caused many issues, it's fixen in #41.

Please add this to the CM branch...

This is like current git

Swapping real IDs for the word "spoofed" is quite obvious, and, IMHO, might cause problems if an application stores it as an integer value. Why don't you just return random numbers?

I'm working on something that will generate plausible data from the calling app package name. I'm just too impatient and decided to release it early.
The other thing is that it's bean too long since the last release

And a final request. Please do something with the usability Maybe a dropbox underneath each of the permissions. Best if colored - red for "revoked", yellow for "spoofed" and "granted" without highlighting. Currently, a brief view at the list of permissions totally misses their states.
Yes, I do understand the engine is far more important than bells&whistles, but as for me, the mod is quite ready for everyday use, and I'd be happy to see it more user-faced.

[APP][2.1+] Llama Locations 2 Calendar

Hi,
a few weeks ago I stumbled over Llama - Location Profiles. I really like this app and it works great for me.
But there was one thing I really missed. I wanted Llama to create calendar entries for areas I was in. In the settings there is an option to log cells but unfortunately there is no way to use this data. Besides of that, information about visited cells is not quite the information that is useful for this task.
So I came up with the idea to use Llama's "Android intent" action to obtain the required information. I wrote a small app that retrieves these intents and creates calendar entries.
I believe that the Llama devloper Kebab3000 has something like this on his agenda, but I couldn't wait
Since this is my very first android app I would like to get some feedback prior to releasing it into the android market.
I am pretty sure that the app should work on android 2.1 - 2.3.5 (I tested it the last few days and it works for me ). It might not work on android 4, since the way of dealing with the calendar changed.
There is a short in-app help on how to set everything up. I will come back and add instructions and screenshots when I get to it.
App is attached to this post!
If you encounter FC's please provide your android version, version of llamalocations2calendar, and a logcat-dump if possible.
Feedback highly appreciated!

I'm trying to configure it, but always when i fill the gmail calendar name, and press set, it FC's. I tried the name of calendar, also my email address...
what should be filled into the calendar name?

Hi,
that is definitely not an intended behavior.
You have to fill in the name of an existing google calendar.
Right now I can not figure out what could go wrong and trigger the force close.
What is the android version on your device?
It would be helpful if someone else could try and post if it also force closes.

I'm on endy 3.3 which is android 2.3.5. I created new calendar on gmail called work and this name I used, but still FC. Would logcat help?

Yes, logcat would definitely help.
My phone is running an 2.3.5 android as well and I have no problems.

logcat
Hi, here is logcat. It may be related to pdroid (Security tool).... But not sure.

I uploaded a newer version. Could you test it and provide me the logcat output again?

newer logcat
Hi, meanwhile i'm on cm nightly and 2.3.7. I used the v1.1 version of liama locataions, now i don't get FC, just error message: google calendar not found.
But i can access this calendar from inbuild calendar app, also from other calendar apps...

Hi,
unfortunately, version 1.1 I uploaded yesterday is broken. I am pretty sure I tested it before uploading, but well ...
I will upload a new version in about an hour, I hope that this will work again.
Best regards
EDIT:
New version is up.

FC again...
Here is logcat with version 1.2

Hi,
thanks for your patience and help.
I hope that I finally fixed the problem. I uploaded a patched 1.2 version.
Best regards

Ok i have no FC while setting the calendar name. But i got FC when sending some location, while in liama there was nothing filled in "Data".. It didn't create the event in calendar, i make som further testing and upload another logcat.

Hi, v1.3 might already solve the new issue.
Best regards

FCs on 2.3.5
Hi nmdevel, v1.3 worked on CM 7.2rc0 (2.3.7), but now on HTC sense 3.5 / 2.35 it FC's.. again while setting the calendar

Hi,
thanks again for your patience!
I hopefully solved the issue that caused the FCs. Stock HTC roms seem to have their own calendars with some identifiers not properly set.
Download as always attached to the first post.
Best regards

Thanks, no more FC

My hero. Been looking for this for a year. You made exactly what i want.
Gonna try tonight (@ work atm)
