Root [ROM][4.0.4][BETA] CM9 for Virgin Mobile and Sprint 10/3/2013

Updated. Panorama still doesn't work but it's not a camera issue, it's a graphic issue.

Feels good putting camera in the working section.
Feels just as good seeing it in the working section:) I just had to applaud you right in front of my computer screen when I saw you fixed camera! What a great surprise!

Anyway I was wondering do I need to flash the kernel test.zip you made and the camera fix or is all that in the ROM?

Also if is not to much could you post the exact download URL please. I need to download this through my download manager. Thanks a bunch!

You do not need to flash the camera fix and if I post the URL it would come out like the links in the op.

Here's all the libs needed. If I remember anymore I'll edit this post.

Libui
Libcamera
Libcameraservice
Libcamera_client
Libbinder
Liboemcamera

camera worked.
video worked.
then... when re-launching camera i got "could not connect to camera"
i hit "ok" re-launched again went back to camera np.
i don't record video ever so idgaf.
thanks again... will update as needed...

You need to wait about 3 to 5 seconds so the camera can be released. This goes for the led apps aswell since they use the camera interface.

Any new changes from 8-19 that would affect battery? I finally switched to this from stock + giantpune kernel to the 8-19 plus the camera patch and battery life took a drastic hit, from 40 hours to 13. I've calibrated the battery and am tracking usage with betterbatterystats, but I'm not seeing any major wakelocks or alarms that can explain it. I'll retest with the new build.

Definitely kudos on the work. I'm looking forward to seeing the latest source, I'd like to experiment with toolchains to see how performance is affected. Any chance you can make a short build guide in case there's any gotchas?

What do you mean?

Well, I would assume that what would be needed is setup an environment, pull the latest cm9 code, drop in the kernel, device, and hardware code from your git, run lunch and make. What I don't know is if there's any mods that need to be made to the OTA once the build is complete.

No mods are needed after building
