Guest nuumuun Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 Yep: 1. adb pull /system/build.prop build.prop 2. edit build.prop with your favorite text editor 3. adb shell reboot recovery 4. adb mount system 5. adb remount 6. adb push build.prop /system/build.prop 7. adb reboot Let me know if that works out! i followed the steps and added the following to the end of build.prop: ro.com.google.locationfeatures=1 ro.com.google.networklocation=1 ro.com.google.clientidbase=android-htc no success ... still "Location: CID=unknown" and Google Maps can't get a lock with Network Location :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest surfsmurf Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 You can examine the adb logcat output to see if it gives any indication of what might be happening. There's no logcat output of any kind while this is happening. I see it also happens in the game Buka, so perhaps it's a general OpenGL thing.

Guest Maik_B Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 ...ok, but my build.prop - hacks made some thing else... I was just remembering this... In theory I'm using 63.18.55.06JU_6.35.09.26 Radio ROM but in About screen it says 63.18.55.06JH_6.35.09.26. Is this normal? As I said Network location via wifi works, via cell no. Weird when i was reading this... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=595108 then i changed this... ro.ril.hsxpa=1 ro.ril.gprsclass=10 into this... ro.ril.hsxpa=2 ro.ril.gprsclass=12 and then reflashed radio-rom and now i have no more JH in the About-screen :) But ... now i have no idea what exactly made this happen ro.com.google.locationfeatures=1 ro.com.google.networklocation=1 ro.com.google.clientidbase=android-htc or / and ro.ril.hsxpa=2 ro.ril.gprsclass=12 Maik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest String Theory Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 Will there be an update of this rom anytime soon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jnwhiteh Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 Will there be an update of this rom anytime soon? What update do you want? I can copy r4 to r5 if it will make you happy! There have been no new source releases. I will be putting out a version sometime soon that tracks AOSP master instead of eclair.. but that will be more experimental than not. Precisely what do you want? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest jnwhiteh Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 KaguDroid is directly based on this ROM. Yes. Also, this isn't a 'development' ROM. This is a stock AOSP ROM, build directly from the Android sources. I'm not actively developing anything for it, just trying to fix existing issues.

But again, awesome that you take the time to explain some things. Hopefully 2.1 will arrive in AOSP soon :) Thanks for all your work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a bit beyond me, considering we haven't clearly identified the bug yet. We also don't use a compiled RIL, so that's not something we can mess with in any way. I have to do some work on the master build to see if I can find a package that works properly.. I just don't have a ton of time at the moment =).

Guest Maik_B Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 (edited) Here... http://www.android-hilfe.de/root-hacking-m...ir-2-0-1-a.html ...is a link to an HTC Magic Rom which includes milestone-googlebits. As you may notice, there is a "location.apk". I messed around with it and from what i saw within the apk, it is from Motorola. Maybe it´s Motorola´s way to get a location? However, wasn´t able to make the location.apk running on the hero yet.

Guest jnwhiteh Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 Yeah, not sure. From the 'HERO21' Rom, yeah. All of the HTC libraries had to come from there in order to work properly, unfortunately. I'm eagerly awaiting the release of an official HTC build so we can backup the proprietary bits before applying the update.zip and then restoring them afterwards. Unfortunately, we still don't have the source to a 'good' 2.0, 2.0.1 or 2.1 so that'll be a pain in my butt as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jnwitheh, do you think there is a chance to modify sources to get the good cid since hardware seems to report it correctly? Thank you yneveu for this information. So, what we can say for sure : The Cell Identifier is known at the radio level (since "AT+CREG?\r" command does transmit correct and valid information) but, this information is not correctly transmitted and/or registered by the ROM. The Network Location bug is somewhere inbetween :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest yneveu Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 Yes, i'll try to find something in android sources this night. Maybe there: frameworks/base/telephony/java/com/android/internal/telephony/gsm/ Hope i still can compile the aosp tree to put some debug traces Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest okdac Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 Hi there, I've been installing this INCREDIBLE rom, and, so far, it's working really good (huge amount of RAM available, network location working with WiFi). My only problem is that I can't switch on/off the 3G. No option. Am I blind or so noob that I don't diserve to be answered ? :) Many thanks in advance. Keep on the great job guyz.

Guest Oletros Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 Hy Maik. I can confirm that changing ro.ril.hsxpa=1 ro.ril.gprsclass=10 to ro.ril.hsxpa=2 ro.ril.gprsclass=12 in /system/build.prop does change JH to JU in the About screen And those parameters eat battery a lot :) Reverted to 1/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jnwhiteh Posted January 20, 2010 Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 I've posted a beta version of r5, if anyone wants to give it a spin. I've also linked an updated google-bits that includes voice search, youtube and a few other cleanups. The major changes in this version are: Moving to AOSP master branch for compiling A small change to the media player code required for a clean compile.. so test this thoroughly for me Using a compiled sensors.hero.so instead of a prebuilt one (so test the sensors) Let me know if you run into any issues.. or if any old issues suddenly disappear =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
