Root [ROM][FINAL] CM7 7.2 RC1 - g60 style [7.11.12]

g60madman said:
I already added it on 5/6/2012. It will be fixed, it looks like it was an update from Cynogen that broke it. I am looking into the code to see what happened, as the camera was working fine in Whyzor's final build. It's one of the March imports that caused the problem I just need to pinpoint which one.

Whyzor was pulling from Tickerguy's repo. Our last pulls were from mantera, witch was updated along with cyanogen. The problem may be deeper than we think.
Also, I just tested the new camera, it still locks when switched to front camcorder.
i can post it if anyone would like to test it also.

is there an easy way to revert fixes, without going line by line?
 
My bad, it seems I can't tell the difference between "known problems" and "fixed problems" :p

Let me know if you need help nailing it down or with anything else, there's a bunch of people here who will always help out.

Yeah I pulled in TickerGuy's Camera and it did not work on the build. Also Whyzor was pulling from Mantera on builds and then adding in his own code edits for kernel, device files, frameworks/base, and also dalvik based on his github. I believe Whyzor has always been using Mantera's github for all his builds based on the instructions he gave me when I first started.

After I figured out github I setup my own repo based off forks from Mantera & Whyzor, and have been merging with Cynogenmod on the repo's that are not getting pulled directly from Cynogen through android/default.xml.

As for reverting commits I found this and also this. I have not tried it yet but will give that a shot tonight. What you will want to do is a

# git clone https://g60madman@github.com/g60madman/android_packages_apps_Camera.git

And the try one of those links to remove the commits. Once I get the commits pulled out I will build and test. As soon as it's working I will update my github and release r0.6 along with a few other fixes. I may also have the video flicker fixed. I wasn't able to test as the build was still cooking before I left this morning.

The last time I looked at his default.xml, it showed he was pulling his camera from tickerguy. Mantera forked it and added to it, the Cyanogen team has been making changes to it (I guess that is what happens when you follow someone else's code).

I was looking for the PM Whyzor sent me but it looks like I deleted it. But yeah he said to stick with Mantera's repo and pull in his repos. Either way will get it fixed :D the camera that is.
 
I just wanted to double check before screwing around and flashing my phone once again. Is it safe to flash from an overclockable custom kernel directly to this rom? I will be wiping everything possible (dalvik cache and the likes). Or do I have to return the rom to stock first and then flash. I'm sure it has been asked millions of times but, I could not find it in the stickied threads.
 
Code: 
daddy@ubuntu:~/g60mm$ git rebase -i
fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git
Of course I try it and get an error. Could it be because it's your repo?

i think when MikeRL gets the FAQ updated the flashing process will make more sense.
When you flash this ROM, you are replacing the system partition (the android/cm7 stuff) and the boot.img (the kernel stuff) as well as other stuff.

Thanks for clarifying. I couldn't remember if the ROM flashing covered Kernel modifications as well but, now that I know I guess I am off to flash! Wish me luck.

I guess it would be up to the ROM builder to state weather or not the ROM includes the kernel. Although I think g60 had mentioned it in the first post.
 
I'm reading through this

You're not in the right directory. Change to the camera directory first.

As always mantera, you're awesome!
OK I'm looking at the editor. I will try to figure out how to work this thing. I am making a backup in case I hose the whole thing. (like I've never done that before)

Don't be scared it's a great launcher, it just starts in Chinese text but it's about 95% English. Then you can follow the wiki I have on the first page to setup MIUI or ICS.

However if want the 360 out you can open the g60.zip ROM and then delete the 360.apk located in system/apps. Once you are all setup you can download ADW again.

I made the switch to g60 yesterday, and slapped go launcher on there (which is OK ). The rom is great... I love the fixed phone sensor the most!

Thanks for keeping this build updated. Looking forward to r06

Thats what I did, using GO Launcher, I like it. I flashed the OC kernel and the black screen started happening again, so I wiped caches and reflashed r05 and it works fine again.

Thanks for letting us know how to remove the 360.apk
Going to try this when I get home will post update of success.

Yeah I have been on the fence in using it. While I really like some of the features of 360 (themes, smooth movements) the lock screen doesn't always play nice (still in beta). I have been thinking of just releasing CM7 with just the stock launcher not ADW but launcher2. Basically take out as much of the bloat as possible and fix as many issues as possible.

Then let you guys and gals just go crazy with the ROM :ridinghorse:

On that note, might I recommend doing a vote thread for what launcher to put in. It's not like wisp won't have it's own problems.
 
Please don't interpret this as being pushy because I don't mean it in that way at all but, I didn't get around to flashing my phone yesterday and I was just curious as to if R.06 was coming out today. I don't mean to be pressuring or anything I just want to avoid flashing twice in one day and was curious if you had it planned.

HOW DARE YOU!!! AFTER ALL I DO!!!!!































LMFAO :) hahaha just messing LOL. I am currently building it right now, but I don't think she will be ready today as I want to do some testing and such but the next version is going very small as I will be wacking about 12 apps from the build. Also going to test out Zeam Launcher as I hear it's nice and small and doesn't eat up battery, plus it has the nice ICS theme. I am sure I will release later this week, or weekend at the latest.

g60 :thumbup:
 
That startled me! I was reading on a small screen and had to do a lot of scrolling before I saw the rest of the post :p I guess I will hold off then and suffer with froyo for a little while longer :D Thanks for the heads up!
