Root [DEV] Continuing Triumph ICS Development

I'm still trying to figure out why the call to getParameters in libcamera returns null. I believe it may have something to do with the new cameraHal and/or the libcameraservice code since the function call causes the camera service to crash.


ok do you remember a while back when tickerguy was developing cm7? well you remember that build where the screenshot function didnt work? it reported back "null" in logcat (if i remember correctly) could you look at what the modified in the code that long ago and see if the problems have similar fixes? (i know the fixes wont be the same, but the idea will be similar)
 
While we appreciate folks' interest and enthusiasm for all the new development that's going on, we'd also appreciate your cooperation in keeping the posts on-topic and relevant to development and debugging issues.

Doing so will make the developer's communication with each other (and you) much easier and will allow them to finish their work faster.

Thank you for your patience and understanding regarding this.

I found tickerguy's fix, but it won't help solve the camera problem. I really think the problem is with the CameraService's interaction with the new CameraHal code.
 
You guys may already know this but I just found out about this as I was pulling apart the andro-id rom trying to get a hdmi fix.

There is a kernel logging daemon that will intercept kernel messages and log them so you can see them in logcat. See klogd - Linux Command - Unix Command

Here is the one I grabbed from the andro-id rom: klogd

Just adb push it to /system/bin/ then give it permissions to execute and run it. You will then see the kernel messages in the logcat.

Its helping me narrow down the hdmi problem so I figured it might be able to help you guys as well.
 
I don't think this will be any help, because they are running on Honeycomb, not ICS.

I'm not an expert, so don't take my word for it.

I don't think that would matter. After all, we are using libraries from Froyo at the moment. ;)

The only potential problem I would see in using their camera libraries is that the Acer A500 has a Nvidia CPU.
