ICS ROM Camcorder Issues - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

Quick question, I don't know if anyone here would be able to answer, or if this is a dumb question, but with official ICS on our phone, what is breaking the camcorder on many of the ICS roms? Is it a kernal issue, or something more in depth?

When "vanilla" AOSP (CM9) or AOKP ROMs are ported over, there are no drivers to make the hardware work with the ROMs. I think the drivers are hacked. So often some hardware does not work. Hacking drivers to make them work is a time consuming process. If/when HTC released the kernel source code, it may help (I'm not sure).
That's my non-developer understanding of the issue.

In the CM9 thread theres a link to "Camcorder.zip" that you can flash after installing Alpha 4 that enables your camcorder. It "sometimes" corrupts the video, but 8 times out of 10 it will work, and records in 720p and SD modes.
Not a perfect fix, but it's something. Probably works with AOKP too but haven't tried it yet.

Thanks for the feedback guys, it reminded me that HTC is pretty bad about releasing source... I've been using samsung products for so long that I had forgotten it was still an issue but unfortunately my infuse broke recently so I bought a one x from someone in the mp. Hopefully I'll get my infuse replaced and have a backup!
so essentially the kernal is still closed source, which is understandable now why there are still some hardware issues.

[Q] Calling all DEVELOPERS to Arms CM9 for Atrix 2

I believe that we can all benefit from working on a ICS build for our platform
What I have assessed is that we need to port the drivers for the hardware of the Atrix 2 into a CM9 build.
I am currently interested in redirecting focus from modifying the current releases of motorola's stock ROM which is let's face it glitchy and weak as [email protected]&K. Sd card issues ect. Mine keeps randomly wiping my music files and pictures for no apparent reason. Even game data Like SHADOWGUN goes missing anytime I reboot.
ICS is where the android platform is headed anyway, so why waste anymore of our time on the gingerbread OS they have given us.
I was previously the owner of a Cliq xt which never got the releases that it deserved from motorola. After toying around with Masterminds ROM builds I finally stumbled on a working CM7 platform that was needles to say far superior and launched my user experience far ahead of where it would have been had I waited for something that was never going to happen.
I would personally be happy to sit down a code my ass off all day to help build this ROM. I know there is an Alpha build and CyanogenMod has announced on their blog that they are launching CM9 built on ICS soon enough. I figure if I can get a lil direction from my fellow Users that I would be able to do this on my own.
What I need to know is what Linux (I run UBUNTU) compatible software may I use to examine a CM9 ROM against the current 2.3.6 ROM that exist for the Atrix 2. I will then extract the drivers for the hardware components and transfer them into the CM9 build then use the atrix 2 bootstrapper to jump into recovery and flash it onto my Atrix 2 for testing. If anyone is on board with helping thats fine however all I really need to know is what programs may I use to accomplish this task. I have the SDK and resources for everything already on my system.
The search button is you friend here.
Look in the developer's fourm and you will see that someone has already headed this direction, we just need a working radio to piece it all together from what I understand.

Both lfaber06 and I are really swamped right now with work and all the other projects we are working on in here, if you would like to help with dev work PM lfaber06 and jimbridgman. He and I have split up most of the dev work in here since there are only 2 of us doing the dev work.
I am working on CM7 right now, and several other hacks that I am not willing to reveal just yet, and lfaber06 has 2 ROMs and is working on the CM9 that is in the dev section.

Will do I appreciate it, positiveness goes a long way rather than sarcasm. Keep me updated on the CM7 progress as well. I am also aware that there is work being done on the CM9 alpha and the GSM CMDA issue that's why I brought it up. Moreso to focus others on the task at hand.

Just transferring the driver files won't work as they have to be built specifically for ICS (correct me if I am wrong). Also I use dsixda's Android Kitchen to decompile, edit, and recompile Roms. Look here.
Yeah gb drivers don't work in ICS. So unless your planning on rewriting drivers for our hardware, you'll have better luck with CM7.

[4.1] JellyBean Dev thread

I'll keep this post upto date with the last on the status of the build.
I've updated the manifest and it's inline with cm10. https://github.com/TeamICS/manifest_ics_cm/tree/jellybean
Builds are located here.
Nightlies are here or here
If you are not using firerats or don't know what that is make sure you use one of the "_shrunk" nightlies.
Currently the room boots. Lots of things work, here is what doesn't:
Bluetooth (pairing)
HW Acceleration (not likely)
Anything missing from CM10
Known issues are:
Headphone + speaker plays when headphones are in
<--previous-->
IT LIVES!
The build doesn't flash, but it successfully built. You need to use firerats as the system partition is over 173mb by itself. Not sure of optimal settings as it doesn't flash but we're getting closer.
Complete repo diff and repo status is here:
https://gist.github.com/3095432
Things disabled at build:
audioinwrapper from srec
libaac/libFDK
compiler-rt
maybe others.
Please note I haven't cleaned anything so it's quite messy and some stuff isn't pushed up to the repos yet. However it builds and that's a big step. It's off to bed and work tomorrow so I won't get a chance to work on it until the evening/friday.
Very close to a build, libaac is the only blocker, I've reached out to cyanogenmod guys to see if they have any ideas to fix aac, without completely rewritting the asm code. The problem is armv6j doesn't support smmul, clz and others in thumb mode, but armv7 (and the few devices with thumb2 on armv6t2) do. I don't have enough experience with arm asm to figure out how to rework the code to convert from 32 bit operations to 16bit operations. Also valgrind is not supported in armv6 (and can't be) so its disabled.
problems building aac, due to asm code, currently disabled a blocker
problems building srec due to audio issue, disabled
haven't ported camera
So far there is only two show stoppers, first is the audio because its changed again slightly. Shouldn't be too hard to work around. Second is cm team is still porting over all armv6 patches. Building on armv5 get stuck at audio, but armv6 get stuck on some asm code in bionic.[/sstrike] aac. AAC is being a really PITA!
<--Original Post-->
So I'm sure some of you guys are watching the I/O live. For those that aren't it's offical Jellybean will be 4.1. It's got loads of new and nice features. A lot of performance upgrades and the most important thing is the annoucement of the platform development kit. It's got all the low level details and apis need to port hardware to android.
Source code will be released in mid july, which is when the real development starts.
The hardwork everyone did on ICS, jaybob, matt, evervolv team and everyone from the G1, hero and eris forums laid the foundation. The main issue that has always held the heroc back has been the drivers. We have a great .35 kernel but with ICS a lot of the framework, that is hardware <-> software interactions changed. Thats what our audio issue was at first, and the camera. Audio was fixed by porting gingerbread patches and legacy audio support. The camera was tougher but eventually fell to the power of the community! The only two major things left are camcorder and full gpu acceleration.
The PDK will hopefully provide the last little bit we need to get acceleration working fully. It's no magic but from the keynote sounds like it might provide the information we need. Or it might not. Won't know until it lands on the web.
Overall jellybean is a step further from our old heroc's but there is still almost 20k devices officially running cm7! We obviously still have a community here who has yet to upgrade so the new goal is jellybean or bust!
As more information and sources are released I'll update the thread. I plan to port our TeamICS github account to Jellybean as soon as it's released. With luck everything will compile and be in the same boat as ics but only time will tell.
Thank you so much for posting this thread! I would have never knew about this. I'm willing to contribute to Jellybean although I'm with the Evo Shift now. I can make AOSP whenever the first jellybean Rom is released hopefully fixing some things!
count me in, i still have a few months on my heroc left until i upgrade
most of the fixes that happened from eligorom should be able to be applied to jellybean, as its basically the same rom as ics (from early reports)
I really need to add it to a signature when here in the HeroC forums, but:
My HeroC has been inactive on a carrier for the last year +, that being said, I still use the crap out of the device when I can, for a clock/alarm, music, GVoice and GrooveIP phone calls when home...
Basically, I would LOVE to see this thing continue to get updates, I still run CM7 over CM9 or ICS because for me, I see the most performance with CM7. Your talk of the PDK has me excited that I might see equal or better performance out of Jelly Bean on my HeroC!
TYVM, keep us updated
im pretty sure jellybean is going to run equal with ics for us, since hardware acceleration is still not available to us
i've been scouring the web for a solution, but no dice so far. we can turn off hwa, but i see no performance increase from doing so
from what i read, its going to take a module and some tweaks, so its going to take a dev with alot of time and knowledge on their hands to get us up to par with the adreno 200, which may never happen (although i hope it does, the heroc is awesome)
Thanks for sharing! Hard!
Not to sure if it can get 4.1. I'm having troubles getting it on the Evo Shift right now...

So will Project Butter have no effect on the Hero? I would think that it would at least have some effect in adding smoothness.

I have to say I'm really exited about this. I ran ICS a few times on my hero with no problems, but I'm still using it as a daily even though I'm sure it would run fine. Ive been thinking about upgrading, but i don't see why. I really don't like any new phones. Their too big, no track ball, and i just simply don't like any of the new phones out right now. So all that being said... JELLYBEAN !!!!!
Source is out!
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/android-building/XBYeD-bhk1o
edit: Not quite yet.
I'll update the TeamICS github with a new manifest for it as soon as it's out. Good news is that I happen to have tomorrow off so looks like I'll get a nice full day of playing around and trying to get it building. As with ICS I suspect most things will be broken, audio, dalvik, etc. So we'll have to port the ICS patches to jb. Once cm updates it's sources to jb, then we can switch back to them as they will have most of the patches in place already.

awesome, cant wait to see the first source build
ill help in whatever way i can, i just cant dl source because of my crappy internet connection (but if i can find someone to borrow faster internet from for a few hours ill most definitely dl source and try to contribute back that way)
Lol may take me a while before I can start porting for the hero again..

Motoblur
Porting Sense
4.1
3.0
Thats pretty much it =)
Well the cyanogenmod guys are making quick work of jellybean. Every hour more and more patches are ported over. Good news is we are very close to a build. Here are the current issue and workarounds.
Audio doesn't build, working on porting it over
problems with v6 in dalvik, changed to arm mode and ported ics *.S files
problems building aac, due to asm code, currently disabled
problems building srec due to audio issue, working on porting audio
haven't ported camera
Currently hungry and looking for lunch :fingers-crossed:

So excited. My Hero has a sweet tooth.
Ha yeah to be honest the hero is getting more development on ics then my evo shift because y'all have aokp.. I need help with someone getting it to work on my evo shift.. We just had a ICS Kernel released so that better get some devs working .. Even though we lost A LOT to the evo 4g lte sadly said..

I dont know about AOKP. Sure it was ported, but what work has there been done on it since? Honestly ICS ran super smooth for me on my Hero, especially coupled with V6SuperCharger. I was using LauncherPro on ICS to add to the smoothness, but the V6SuperCharger allows for smooth use of Apex.
yeah, it wasnt aokp that accelerated our cause, aokp has only been around for a few weeks for us so far. it was jaybob's ics aosp rom that really kicked things into gear. that and stritfajt with the camera fix, and the guys over at hero gsm for all the different tweaks and fixes, and mongoosehelix over at eris that kicked butt with evervolv for us. im sure im missing some people, but it doesnt make them any less important to the cause.
and last but not least all the testers and rom flashers that gave excellent feedback
i look forward to seeing jb run like ics
So the reason it's unflashable was because it's over the 170mb limit of the phone. Even though I'm using firerats there still seems to be a hard limit of the recovery and fastboot. The solution is to use a newer recovery, anything cwm 3.x or higher works. The dev phone I'm using had 2.5 cwm and that was the issue. Now it flashes fine. Only problem is for some reason sh didn't build, so now I'm looking to see why it didn't build.
we can cut out some cruft, like live wallpapers, and ringtones/notification sounds. live wallpapers dont work well on heroc anyway.
the sh error is boggling me too, supposedly its mksh symlinked as sh, which should have worked as thats how it is in ics roms.
im on the job lol
edit: yeah something is definitely rotton with those permissions, i checked them against an ics rom and everything checks out, but we still get the permissions error. i'm wondering if its the update binary possibly? ill do some checking and let you know one way or the other

AO[S|K]P ROM development life cycle question

Hi Guys,
I'm very new to this scene and have already started experimenting with ROMS (running Leedroid at the moment). I've just had a quick play with Coldblooded CM10 and love it but I'm intrigued about the current 'broken list'.
Is this just the way it goes with ROM Development on a new device that it goes through multiple iterations until the dev engineers a fix to all the issues? Does it make any difference when HTC for example eventually release the kernel source (which I assume they will once the official JB release comes out). I'm guessing stuff like the headphone issue/in-call echo will be 'fixed' in the official release from HTC so could be implemented in existing ROMs?
Hope that makes sense and I haven't just broken a load of noob xda rules....
Thanks
basically a rom is never really finished.
theres always something to be ironed out or a bug that needs to be squashed. or sometimes its just enhancements,
but yea like you said until htc releases the source then stuff wont be 100%
Even when they do release the sources, there's still lots of things that potentially might not work.
Like take for example CM9 (ICS based) - although there are kernel sources out already for HTC's ICS, a bunch of things are not yet working. You can blame that on closed-source drivers, like wifi or camera, etc.
So it might take a while for everything to work properly, but as long as we have dedicated developers like xkonni, intervigil, etc, there's nothing to be worried about.

Nice thanks guys that makes sense. I just assumed that things like drivers could be poached and reused but I guess a lit of that is part of the sense framework.
I look forward to seeing what happens

If anyone has questions or concerns regarding the CyanogenMod 10 please ask here and stay away from the development section for these posts, as it has over 3000 posts.
To start off please read the CM10 faq on the first Page of the CM10 thread before asking any questions here or in the official thread. Thanks

So, does (or will) the camera app in CM10 have the same burst mode that the Sense camera has? Can you take AS MANY photos AS QUICKLY? Will those photos be similar quality? Will we be able to pull stills from previously recorded video? Or take Hi Res stills while shooting HD video?
I read the last 15 pages of the development thread and didn't see any of this being discussed.
Thanks a bunch!

Burst mode is a sense cam feature only, because there is no sense in cm those features will not be there. Your best bet is if you want sense cam but asop feel go with clean rom or tn rom, they can desense the launcher but keep the apps but you will be on ics. But i will say the cm cam is alot faster then it used to be and is still a good camera.
**PLEASE READ IN REGARDS TO CAMERA ISSUES WITH CM10**
The rapid fire camera mode is named Zero Shutter Lag or ZSL and there are plans to implement this in the near future. You will also soon be able to take still pictures while recording video. H8 & the CM10 team are working on getting every feature of the camera to 100% and they say they are nearly there.
However, as of right now the camera, video camera, & panorama mode is still relatively broken. The camera's bare bones features are working but only in the build's that are labeled as EXPERIMENTAL. The regular CM10 nightlies do not contain the WORKAROUND that H8 has come up with because this workaround has not been merged with the offical CM10 nightlies that the One XL is now getting.
Word on the street is the camera will be 100% working very, very soon so please be patient.
If you use and rely on the camera on a daily basis...please only flash the EXPERIMENTAL builds until further notice!!!

Definetly hit or miss. Heard it was fixed in the 8/28 but no music so I guess I'll stay on 8/22 and deal with it. Heard someone say they flashed AOKP ICS rom and reflashed CM10 and it was fixed.

I have a couple of general questions.
1. Will the official release of HTC JB drastically and rapidly improve the project? Will lots of things need to be redone/reoptimized? Or it's simply some missing links being filled? What kind of time frame can we expect for a fully working CM10 (equal or close to the quality of CM on the other officially supported devices) following the HTC JB release?
2. Exactly how was the team able to develop this rom so far without official support? And how much farther can this realistically go if we do not get the official JB in the near future (hopefully this doesn't happen). From what I read, I'm under the impression that this rom is already in a much better shape compared to the development phase CM builds on many other non-officially supported devices (for example ICS/JB builds on older devices that received EOL after GB). Is the kernel of the phone somewhat "easier" to crack compared to those devices or is that we have some super talented developers behind this project? And the developer seems confident that even without official HTC JB, this rom can pretty much become a *fully working* one?
Thanks for the awsome work!
Is wake locks an issue with cm10 so far or just a few users isolated type instance? I was getting massive wake lock for alarmmanager that I do not get on CleanRom.
anyone else getting bad battery life with this ROM? currently running the 8/29 nightly.
Right now im at 33% battery with 11h on the battery but only 1h45min screen time. I also have GPS on and brightness around 1/2..which could possibly be the problem.

1. Nope, didn't help us at all. Didnt need it. As far as I'm concerned, after tonight's nightly (technically...tomorrow morning's nightly) everything is pretty much 100%. a few bugs here or there...but I think the Nexus devices are the only ones ahead of us regarding "working" status.
2. We're magical. *snicker* just kidding. We've pretty much completely beat HTC to Jellybean with CM10. The great part of the kernel work intervigil has provided is that we use the same kernel for ICS and JB. Meaning we can backport all JB stuff to ICS with minimal differences. We are very confident that this will be a fully working one. The last piece we needed was the Camera HAL which we *just* received.
Thank you for the thanks! Enjoy!

That sir, is very impressive. "Beating HTC to jellybean" sounds so satisfying in an ambitious way, and completely changes the way these games used to be played. Hats off to all the "magicians" who made this happen!
One more question: what about LTE? I'm currently on the 4.0.4 based CleanRom 4.5, which is my first custom rom flashed on the phone (only bought it a week ago). Do I have to flash back to a 4.0.3 based ROM (which I have trouble finding) before flashing to CM 10? If the answer is still yes, is a solution being worked out to troubleshoot and solve the problem?

I'm not entirely sure if something is being worked on but I think you should flash CR4.0 as it is definitely working and is 4.0.3 base which is what h8rift said to flash.

May I ask what is the right procedure to flash CM10? In the zip there is a boot.img. Do we need to manually extract and flash it with fastboot?
I ask this because some people (including me) can't make LTE to work in CM9/10. Some say by flashing CleanROM 4.0, full reset then flash CM10, LTE will be the default. This trick does not work for me. What is the mechanism of this trick? What stays after full reset? All I can think is the boot image. But even manually flashing CleanROM's boot.img then flash CM10 does not work for me. Changing build.prop (ro.ril.def.preferred.network and ro.telephony.default_network as suggested at code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/detail?id=1623 , sorry can't link external) of course does not work either.
I know #*#*info*#*# can change the preferred network type, but it does not stick after reboot, which renders this approach useless.
Thanks.

[Q] I need some clarity.

Alright, so first of all I was reading some threads about the LG Source Code drop which would 'fix' some of the CM 10 problems and also release an official ICS for G2x? The thread was published on October 25th so I was wondering what is happening with this?
1) Is there an official ICS release?? (I rooted in the summer and have been on Hellfire 4.0.4 and CM 9.9.9 Jellybean ever since)
2) How can you fix the bugs on CM 10 like video recording, HWA, etc.?
I heard something about the kernel drop where you could fix CM 10 bugs in the thread I was talking about.. anyone know about this?
I'm really tired of going back to Gingerbread and Froyo to have full functionality, and don't tell me to dual boot, I'm not doing that.
Read the development section please. The O2x had ICS released, but LG confirmed that the G2x will not be. Therefore, we have CM10.1 with everything working but the cell radio, battery gauge (which is connected to the cell radio), and the GPS. The dev's are working on it, I won't count on it working anytime soon, but I think they will eventually crack it.
For your information I had read all the development news and various facts, but I was unaware about a certain thread. Also, Thanks for the information on the CM 10.1.
You missed a pretty important thread. It's become pretty popular lately.

This is the ROM we are rooting for.
Pardon the pun(?).
