Root ICS/CM9-JB/CM10 Development Thread

Okay so I fixed the install error both ways: only remove the DRM files for ARMv6 and remove the errant permission lines during repackaging. This also fixes the su binary, busybox symlinks, and whatever other weirdness was encountered.

Now if I can track down the radio and bluetooth connectivity issues, I can get back to camera work...

hey tdm how do you flip the front facing camera screen to normal
 
It seems Alpha 5 works perfectly with one minor exception. the volume isn't as loud as it use to be. But the camera is a hell of a lot better. Battery doesn't drain horribly. All in all a stable rom. Going to try to use this as my daily driver.

Possibly related to the previous audio routing issue?

It's probably a kernel issue. I am using the ICS audio libs for the JB builds.

I'll probably be putting AOKP 4.1 on my main phone today. That will give me some motivation to get things fixed. ;)
 
I had been running AOKP 4.0 and I dirty flashed AOKP 4.1. Observactions:

Ran into the issue with hwaddrs not going away and preventing rild from working. I think I have a fix for that, testing it out today.

Bluetooth enabled fine. I hate intermittent issues. :(

Capacitive buttons are blinking constantly as expected.

I was using slide unlock but it doesn't work now. It lets me slide the circle all around but there are no "targets" at all, not even unlock. Worked around this by pulling down the notification shade and setting circles unlock. Anyone else see this issue? I'll try to track down the issue because I am too lazy to wipe my phone with over 100 apps on it lol.
 
Found another issue: 3G does not work in AOKP 4.1. I think I've got the solution.

Does 3G work on the latest CM10? It should...

I briefly tested cm10 last night and had no 3g. I did a dirty install though, so that could have something to do with it. I'm going to give it another whirl tonight. I could not turn on bluetooth either.

I tried turning on and off airplane mode. Everytime I turned airplane off, I didn't even get the signal bars icon. The airplane logo would disappear but nothing would replace it. Only a reboot (and even then I didn't get any signal.)

I appreciate your dedication and will do anything to help.

BTW, I'm on Ting and installed coming from AOKP 4.0

3G won't work unless the radio is working first.
 
The bluetooth issue seems like it's timing related. How else would it be intermittent?

I saw a setting in the CM build TARGET_NEEDS_BLUETOOTH_INIT_DELAY, which adds a 150ms delay before brcm_patchram_plus opens the uart. That seems promising. Though the P970 build doesn't have it, so I don't know.

Anyway, not wanting to rebuild (yeah, I'm lazy), I added a 3 second delay before starting brcm_patchram_plus by using a simple shell script:

Code: 
#!/system/bin/sh
sleep 3
exec /system/bin/brcm_patchram_plus.real --enable_hci --enable_lpm --baudrate 3000000 --patchram /etc/firmware/BCM43291A0_003.001.013.0141.0160.hcd -d /dev/ttyO1

Of course, I renamed the real executable to brcm_patchram_plus.real first.

Now I've got three successful reboots in a row with bluetooth enabled.
 
tdm, as mentioned yesturday. I was running into 3G problems. It went away completely even if i went and turned off the data then turned it back on. Today it did the same thing and it restarted because of the sim card error and came back, it's pretty spotty for the most part i guess you can say. I deleted that file that you said to in a few posts back, it fixed the music issue for a while. Came back again even though the file has been deleted. Will continue testing though. PM me if you want help, i don't know much, but what i do ill be happy to help!

Building a new pair of ROMs now, hopefully will have radio and bluetooth fixed (fingers crossed).

Also, when I dirty flashed, Google Play Books and Google Play Music constantly crashed. I removed and reinstalled them to fix that.

And I updated to the latest jb gapps, 20121011.

New ROMs up:

quattrimus-sniper-cm10-test4.zip md5=3ed808f581aebdba2ba12f8fd61d26dd

quattrimus-sniper-aokp41-test4.zip md5=820b5474ad2ec1d154f110edd08d7dbd

Changes, both:

* Fixed hwaddrs hanging (hopefully), which fixes radio
* Fixed bluetooth (hopefully) by using TARGET_NEEDS_BLUETOOTH_INIT_DELAY

Changes, AOKP:
* Fixed install
* Fixed 3G

Also found that Youtube needs a reinstall after a dirty flash. I see a pattern here .. all the Google stuff is broken, nothing else is. Rather ironic... wonder why?

Took a while for 3g to turn on but seems to be working ok now.

Once you get the new builds up I will test and report. It is nice to see the marquee getting 4.1. Been using it on my tab for a while and in terms of usage ics and jb are quite far apart to be honest.
