Root ICS/CM9-JB/CM10 Development Thread

I'll have to test it out a bit more but the speakerphone for some reason will work for about 10 seconds then silence. I turned it off and back on for it to time out again after 10 seconds. Anyone else have this problem?
 
Google Now

I really wish that voice apk would search automatically instead of me having to push the search button after. Also it's not dictating, which is a big issue
 
I finally got the time to get this installed on my phone with the newest version and it's running great. SMS is finally working for me so I think I think I'm gonna go ahead and run it all day tomorrow.

Nice work! :D

I don't know if there is a direct post with the most recent one on here, only one i could find was alpha1a. I personally got alpha1b from the goomanager app under tdm's name.

Sounds like you're using that "voice search for Google Now" apk. You can just launch GN from the search bar and press the little greyed out mic til it beeps and says "start now". The Mic will then turn red and anything you ask for will auto launch with card info. The only down side to this seems to be some sort of initializing error.
 
Anyone else feel we should have a dedicated [ROM] thread?
Just make things easier I think as links are EVERYWHERE in here:)
 
I can't send MMS on Boost. As soon as I hit send Messaging force closes. SMS works great.

Edit: Tried fixing permissions and still no dice.

Anyone have this problem on Boost?
 
Has anyone tried any themes yet? I'm curious if there have been any conflicts with apps force closing like there were with GB.

Secondly, does anyone have any good links for some available CM9 themes?

That is why the use of the voice search apk is needed. On a lighter more Google has said that they are starting to work on back porting Google now to pre 4.1 devices

Guys just some interesting things to note:

Still not sure if my cpu is scaling properly. In Antutu system settings it shows my CPU range as I set it in performance settings: Min-220, Max-1380, Gov-Interactive. In my test results it also shows my CPU as being at 1380 but the results are stock like.

On CTmod I was getting 3200-3400
On CM9 I'm getting 2400-2500

By no means am I complaining. It's just an interesting find as the performance and usability seems so much more polished and faster on CM9.

I've got SMS and it will receive MMS but not send. I'm gonna play around with it a little more this afternoon.

The messaging app doesn't FC or anything. It just doesn't send the pic.

I haven't been able to send or recieve MMS on boost.

Edit:Mine FC's on me. I attach the photo and as soon as I hit send I get "not responding" popup. I feel like I'm the only one :(

Yeah it doesn't work the but it's a start
 
Just got a successful multi-rom install using binary patches. The edify function apply_patch() is very poorly documented, both by Google and around the interwebs. Here is the usage in case anyone cares:

Code: 
apply_patch(source_filename, target_filename,
    patched_sha1, patched_size,
    source_sha1, bsdiff_blob);

source_filename: source filename to patch, eg. "/system/app/Mms.apk".
target_filename: target filename or "-" to use source_filename.
patched_sha1: final sha1sum of target file.
patched_size: final size (in bytes) of target file.
source_sha1: sha1sum of source_filename prior to patch.
bsdiff_blob: patch data. Use 1-arg version of package_extract_file() to read a blob.

Example:

Patching /system/app/Mms.apk in-place.
Source sha1sum is bd2abdc82d23b21c54135beeb116333d526df793
Patched sha1sum is 1665d7d0932cea4688dfa63ec39f48200a7cf6d9
Patched file size is 1885697
Patch is named "LS855/system/app/Mms.apk.bsdiff" in zipfile.

Code: 
apply_patch("/system/app/Mms.apk",
    "-",
    "1665d7d0932cea4688dfa63ec39f48200a7cf6d9",
    "1885697",
    "bd2abdc82d23b21c54135beeb116333d526df793",
    package_extract_file("LS855/system/app/Mms.apk.bsdiff"));

Note it is possible to apply a series of patches by adding more (source_sha1, bsdiff_blob) arguments. Each source_sha1 is the sha1 of the source file prior to that patch being applied. I don't see anyone using this, as it would get really hairy to maintain and use.

Also note the *.bsdiff files are created using the bsdiff utility (of course). I used the one installed on my Debian 6.0 system, but the Android build also make a bsdiff binary at "out/host/linux-x86/bin/bsdiff".
 
Well, I applied gabwerkz changes and it didn't compile. But it looks like he took them from the teamhacksung latona code, so I got the changes directly from there and applied them. Doesn't seem to substantially affect anything,

I'm wondering if gabwerkz has any camera driver changes in the kernel that might help.
 
Lol at "piggypoofoo likes this" anyway @tdm I was wondering what is the fate of the quick launch key on the side of the phone, will it's functionality ever be restored? And anyone else using lg UI 3.0 know where I could find the lockscreen apk? Its just not the same without it.

The button can be fixed to launch the camera. I forgot what I changed for it tho, ill look in a few.

edit:

heres the fix for launching the camera with the button

open system/usr/keylayout/Generic.kl and change

Code: 
key 95    NUMPAD_COMMA
to
Code: 
key 95    CAMERA

you may have to reboot after the change.
