Guest rjm2k Posted October 13, 2010 Report Share Posted October 13, 2010 The BT adapter is always active after boot (when BT works). Its not like wifi where you need to load a module. Turning bluetooth on and off just brings the interface up/down. If you run hciconfig on a rom with working BT you can list all of the adapter properties while the interface is down. Since BT is initialised by init it should always be done before wifi is started (wifi is started by android much later). Hi Tom, have you put together any docs on how you ported this to the pulse, or did you follow any docs online? I've had a look at the CM source but haven't really found much useful information on porting. Are you still planning to port to the SF when it arrives?

For some reason my BT has never worked since going from 1.5 to 2.1, or perhaps it just stopped working around then. Would this method make it difficult for connectivity on a pulse like mine?

Guest Tom G Posted October 13, 2010 Report Share Posted October 13, 2010 Hi Tom, have you put together any docs on how you ported this to the pulse, or did you follow any docs online? I've had a look at the CM source but haven't really found much useful information on porting. Are you still planning to port to the SF when it arrives? I didn't follow any docs. Some of the problems I have run into have been documented elsewhere, but there is no single source for information. Most of the knowledge needed for the CM6 port came from the aosp port. All you need is some basic programming skills and a lot of time (I don't know c/c++ which a lot of this is written in), any one can do it. Some of the users here (especially AdamBaker and Flibblesan) have been very helpful with providing information and solutions to some of the problems. It would not have come this far without the help of others here. I will start an SF port once it gets here, but its not looking good. It should have been here by now. Maybe tomorrow.

Guest robot1000 Posted October 13, 2010 Report Share Posted October 13, 2010 I can't seem to install this ROM I currently have FLB 2.1 but when I wipe in Recovery and try and flash this ROM, it flashes a couple of lines for a split second and then goes back to recovery menu. Is there any way to resolve this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you start by copying the vendor tree for another phone and hacking that? I thought about copying the Hero tree for the SF (uses the same cpu etc) and hacking that, haven't got very far though as it seems the CM hero builds currently fail!

Guest naniteboy Posted October 13, 2010 Report Share Posted October 13, 2010 su echo ondemand > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor That's way you will set your scaling@_governor to ondemand, And the cpu freq will variate from 245mhz to 691mhz, depending of thee CU loading state. and it'll result with longer battery live. I tried this one and it works only until reboot - it seems it's set in some startup script but I can not find it :/ Any ideas about that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I do. But the kernel need to be recompiled. The best solution is to install SetCpu application from market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait! I know how to remove this problem without the need of recompaling the kernel. I'll make a script. And upload it here with instructions how to.

I think the AOSP config started from a bravo config, the CM6 config started from the dream/sapphire. The AOSP config has very little of the original config left, but the CM6 one has needed much less modification. The CM6 and AOSP config are not the same (but the AOSP config could have been modified to use in CM6). In AOSP I don't use anything in /vendor, it is all in /device. CM6 uses both /vendor and /device which is why I used an existing CM6 config to modify. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest stealthstealer Posted October 13, 2010 Report Share Posted October 13, 2010 i encountered a very serious issue with this rom. whilst making calls, i can hear te person on the other end but they can't hear me. getting this now all of a sudden haven't changed anything :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mr.a Posted October 13, 2010 Report Share Posted October 13, 2010 About the camera issue. The problem is exactly in the camera app. i can confirm this.

Guest whackster Posted October 13, 2010 Report Share Posted October 13, 2010 Ok, here's an update for touchpal that works! It's the previous version with black keys and orange highlights.

Thank you - I'll try it as soon as Pulse fill up a bit of battery :) Completelly drained in 6 hours - with almost no activity :) I'm loving CM6 generally but this hasn't made my day (or two last days :)) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taking pictures with a camera app called "FxCamera" is great and has never force closed on me. it is available in the market for free! Well I wasn't thinking exactly like that. In the logcat I saw that each camera application is calling the com.google.camera process and something .java so when you press the shut button twice an error cames up. It doesn't matter if you use the core camera application or any other camera application. Something is getting busy the frame buffer. frame_buffer=0 or something like that?!

But since I flash the cm6 ported rom for pulse, I'm experience some very strange issue. I can't see any media on my sdcard via any media application. it doesn't matter if it's the stock gallery and music applications, or some other installed media application. But via any file manager I can see the media stored on my sdcard. I was thinking that I could solve this issue, but everything until now I couldn't get the solution about this bug. Anybody experiencing the same issue like me? The Set_ondemand script is working for me, but one my friend just tald me few minutes ago that it doesn't work for him. You can check if it's work via the setcpu app, or in the terminal type this. su cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor It should print "ondemand" back to the screen. And each time you reboot the phone it should change the scaling_governor state to ondemand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest rulerofkaos Posted October 13, 2010 Report Share Posted October 13, 2010 I had the issue with missing media in some eclair builds, too. I just cleaned the caches of media and gallery apps in the applications menu and after a reboot it worked again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest totiadrenalin Posted October 14, 2010 Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 Here is zip flash. Just flash it and every time you reboot your phone the scaling-governor will be set to ondemand. EDIT: Sorry, but I made mistake. No it's working. this script proves nonworking. I wrote new script but from inside my phone. It will have new vutures like setting manualy the cpufreq an the scaling_governor. But I'mnot at home now so I can't make the zip for you. as soon as I get home I'll make the flashing zip and upload it fir you. this script was working for me only because I split boot the boot img and reedit the init.rc and i forgot to put the new boot.img in the zip. Sorry folks. I'll make it up for you. Now with the new script you won't need to flash the boot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
