Maybe you guys can start a petition =P

tdm - I thought the ICS release was V20c for the P930 and V10f was the gingerbread?

It is, we don't have 3.0 kernel source yet, so why compare 3.0 kernel to a 2.6.35 kernel? So he is comparing 2.6.35 for the p930 to 2.6.35 for the spectrum

Biotic

O.o ouch

I am comparing 2.6.35 vs920 to 2.6.35 p930 in order to see what the differences are in the kernel sources between the two devices. This tells us what needs to be applied to the 3.0.8 p930 kernel (or rather, what might need to be applied -- many of the differences are just minor edits for whitespace and such).

Awesome work guys. Very appriciative and excited to see what comes in the future. Keep up the great work!

azoller1

Now I don't care for the ics update I would way rather have this!
Thanks tdm and death2all and everyone else taking all of your time working on something that is very hard to do, I appreciate it, thanks so much!!!

Agreed. I tried cm9 and cm10 on my Transformer and I really don't notice a difference. I think it's more firmware than a esthetic.

Biotic

Waaa?

hayneskr

I went back to your original post and I see where I read it wrong.
Guess I got so excited about the progress being made!

Thank you!

megaghostgamer

depends is cm10 stable for it and it also depends on the rom.. also about the droid RAZR having better signal, I don't know if they do this with Motorola's to but htcs have something in them that don't tell you when you are roaming until a certain point therefor better signal ( from what I've been told) I do believe its true because I've had some developers put a mod in roms that shows true signal and its just horrible. So that's something to take into consideration also the moto RAZR has ics. Ics has better signal then GB from what I've seen on roms on my past phones... I could be wrong. Again though IMO




Lol.. I got a bad behind rom called alien droid for my nook tablet complete gui customization and jb what more could you want? infact I'm updating it tomorrow.

ortrigger

There is a definite difference between cm9 and cm10. Not so much visually but in smoothness and general performance there is a big distinction between the two.

Working through wifi, radio, sound, and bluetooth. Once I have those going, I'll make a test build and push to github. Should be this week, I'm pretty sure.

Thanks for keeping us informed :-)

hell ya guys. go on a 6 day car show vacation with little hope...come back and you guys have almost cracked it!

Biotic

Not exactly the case. HOWEVER, with ics, its gives the device more options with the antenna than gingerbread. For instance, the razr didnt have global or gsm mode untill the ics update. In the case of cyanogen9-10, it does give us those options and more.

That's true my gs3 is on a nightly build base ,cm 10 this one is called code name android.

MrB206

That's kinda what I thought. Oddly enough, I ran some AnTuTu tests on both roms and cm9 consistently got better scores. Granted, it was only by 100-200, but I thought that was interesting. I'm much happier with little things in 10, like the notification clearing.

tdm

Been looking at wifi, radio, and sound. Summary: it's a complicated mess. I could use some help. Who are the devs here that can help out? I will create a github org for collaboration if I can get a team together.

Wifi is a bit of an issue. I think the vendor is using wpa_supplicant 0.6.x but CM9 for the p930 is using 0.8.x. Should be fixed soon, I think.

From what I see, there are two main ways to get audio working. Either use the spectrum's vendor audio libs for GB, or use the p930 vendor audio libs for ICS. It will take some work to get the GB audio libs working but I don't really know how much. Could be easy, could be hard. But the end result will be GB audio libs on ICS. I'd rather have native ICS audio, but I'm not sure if any kernel changes are required. They may require the ICS kernel drivers. So I might go back and revisit the p930 ICS kernel ... it's where I want to go anyway.

The spectrum's radio setup is ... unique. It has two rild services, presumably one for CDMA and one for GSM. This greatly complicates radio handling. It will take a bit to untangle that. But I am not using VZW so I can only test CDMA and 3G.

Biotic

+1

MrB206

You might want to talk to the Droid 2 Global devs over @ Rootz. We encountered that same issue with the d2g radio and one of them figured it out. That sh*t is above my paygrade.

phillip_viado

not to be rude but where is all the devs that people donated to get the spectrum

Biotic

Working silently

Brandonson112

WE haven't heard from weblexa since he got his device. I wonder what he's up to.

Finally figured out how to get the p930 ics kernel to load initramfs. The problem (as always) was a silly little thing that I missed:

BOARD_FORCE_RAMDISK_ADDRESS := 0x41a00000

My itty bitty fbcon is now telling me that the kernel booted, loaded the initramfs, and init is doing stuff. Unfortunately, adb is not functional. But this is a great step forward!

hollywoods14

seems like there are a couple we havent heard from. i think 2 or 3 were dependant on having cm7 or cm9 in order to do their thing.

artcwolf

Where'd you get this rom? I've only found CM9 for my nook color

death2all111

Death2all110 was killed off by the mods..

Brandonson112

But he worked his butt off to get us where we are today. I myself pour some out for him, my lost homie.

Now if someone could convince them to take the perm ban off even if it was a 7day ban that'd be okay.... I miss all my stuff...

tdm

I think I'm getting close to finding the issue with adb. It seems the usb port is not being initialized correctly due to some code differences between the two kernels in the function msm_hsusb_ldo_init().

jeshbeast

And reborn even better!

badrsj

D2A does the number at the end signify times reborn?

real0325

Good shiznit. Death there will always be haters, I just don't understand why people just can't go with the flow.

It seems to me like the mods just like to come in here and try to control/censor what we can and cannot say, whether a thread has gotten off topic and needs to be moved. I mean I think we have a nice, small community that doesn't really need constant patrolling. I mean what did d2a do that was so bad and worth him being banned...well repeatedly? I'll probably wind up banned like d2a for saying this lol but I think it needs to be said/asked.

MrB206

I'd love to know as well. Anyone that wants to hit me up in PM, cool. I understand mods can censor us (it's their right as owners of the site), but why does he keep getting banned? I've never seen him do anything worth banning... ignoring when he goes on rants? maybe... but we all rant and babble.

imnotmikal

Wow...
Death is nothing but good peoples, I don't get why he was banned either.

Since he can't come do it, I'm going to invite you all the IRC channel, maybe you guys can keep the discussion going there.

Click here:
freenode Web IRC (qwebirc)

Or join server irc.freenode.net and channel #spectrum with your own IRC client.

darkXshadows

Lets try this again shall we!?

If my main account doesn't get unbanned Im moving this discussion elsewhere.

I've already warned admin.

I'm tired of the butthurt BS.

Hey darxshadows....i tried to get into to spectrum irc but it didnt load, whats the deal yo?

IMUcarmen

You guys are out of control. Just chill. You have no right to complain about the rules because this site/forum doesn't belong to you.

If I invited you in my house and required that you abide by certain rules while there, you would have no grounds for a valid or legitimate complaint if I kicked you out based on a disregard and/or disrespect of me or the rules.

And don't think I'm taking sides, I know death pretty well (for someone I haven't met in real life) based on a lot of personal conversations we've had, and I think I even know why death went off. And I'm sure death knows I'm not attacking him because I'm not that kind of person. I am just looking at this objectively and the truth is death even knew that his outburst would most likely result in a ban. I really hope death original account gets unbanned because he is a valuable part of this forum. But we all must play by the rules whether we like them or not. I've been annoyed a few times by certain things admins have done as well, but we are in someone else's house, and we must respect the house rules no matter how silly they seem. None of us are forced to be here.

PS. The admins did say if you have a complaint then pm them. I think that would be the wisest course of action. Let's try to act like adults here people.

darkXshadows

Not sure did you try the link above?

Well said. Too bad I missed this 'death2all110' guy. Seemed like a real character. xD

I'm actually surprised by your response imu, but guess it is what it is...man i do hate that cliche..lol. Well androidforums, i think you are gonna loose a lot of members after this debacle.

For the random reboots, try setting I/o scheduler to deadline.

MrB206

Honest question here.... Why? I changed it to that and it immediately rebooted.

real0325

Today I was reading about what the schedulers do, and I read that the deadline scheduler executes task /required ram at a moments notice. Which keeps the phone from overload, and my wife called me today complaining about 6-7 reboots within 30 minute window. So I decided to do some fiddling and sure enough the scheduler was set to noop. So tomorrow I will have run multiple task to see what happens, and I will report back.

Found the problem with msm_hsusb_ldo_init(), it was a config issue. Unfortunately, adb still isn't available for some reason.

darkXshadows

Have you shoved ADB into the Init.rc? Also, If you do make an Organization Add me.
