Guest ejtagle Posted August 17, 2012 Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 Sadly still the same problem This starts to smell like a framework bug,,, I will investigate further... Just for anyone reading, the exact culprit can be found at: AudioPolicyManagerBase.cpp, function AudioPolicyManagerBase::checkOutputForStrategy(routing_strategy strategy), The exact line causing the Null pointer exception is the next one to the FIXME comment that there is. And the problem is that they are accessing the dstOutputs[0] element, but i do suspect this array has no elements. The AudioPolicyManagerBase::checkOutputForStrategy(routing_strategy strategy) is called with strategy = STRATEGY_SONIFICATION, from AudioPolicyManagerBase::checkOutputForAllStrategies(). It is either a framework bug, or still something missing either in audio_hw.c or audio_policy.conf... Will investigate further.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest univall Posted August 17, 2012 Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 Eduardo/Ejtagle: I have built a ROM from Scanno's Vegabean repository with the phone functions enabled and report that I am able to make and receive calls on my Viewsonic 10s 3g without any issues or force closes. The issue I am facing is that sound is not flowing through on the phone call either via speakers or via wired headset. I am trying to figure out what I need to activate in the framework or device source / build files to get this working. Am willing to build and test out any inputs provided here. Please note I am a newbie to repo, git and patches so helpful hints along with your inputs will make it easier for me to handle. I am quite keen to do this and have sometime on my hands for the next few weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I unfortunately have to confirm the problem IS a framework bug Seems the framework has several strategies for audio output. Some of those strategies return more than a device (we will say multiple outputs) in getDeviceForStrategy(). The problem is that the framework then fails to handle that situation and crashes!! .. I assume Nexus7 does not have an HDMI video port, that is why this problem does not show ... But, we do have it, and we are triggering the framework bug while tring to switch to hdmi audio...

Well, even if there seems to be a bug in the framework, i was able to crafy an audio_policy.conf file that is able to solve the HDMI audio. Tested, and seems to work for me :) Attached the file. I simply declared hdmi as a mode ot the primary device... :Paudio_policy.rar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ejtagle Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 I've been working on the huawei generic ril to make work better and with other huawei dongles....

Guest fosser2 Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 Hey ejtagle, I'm looking through how you guys implamented audio in 3.1. I'm intrested in how you enabled the CDEV clocks for audio. Since the CDEV clocks are not being called in the board-shuttle-clocks.c where exactly is CDEV being enabled? I ask this because we're trying to get the G-Tablet to register audio devices but it will only enable w/ the proper CDEV added to the clocks. Any idea what I'm missing? Thanks :) -fosser2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ask this because we're trying to get the G-Tablet to register audio devices but it will only enable w/ the proper CDEV added to the clocks. Any idea what I'm missing? Thanks :) -fosser2 You are trying to address one of the most changing aspects of the tegra kernel... I lost a lot of time following that one... Finally, it was relatively easy... Yoy dont have to declare and/or enable cdev (=pll_a_out0) in tegra_clk_init_table. All you need to make it work is to make sure it is properly configured in tegra_pingroup_config I mean, {TEGRA_PINGROUP_CDEV1, TEGRA_MUX_PLLA_OUT, TEGRA_PUPD_PULL_DOWN, TEGRA_TRI_NORMAL}, Then ,all configuration of plls as required to get an specific audio sampling rate will be taken care of by tegra_das_device The initialization order is extremely importan here, as you need the clocks to be enabled before the audio codec i2c registers can be accessed. Use exactly the same order as i did in board-shuttle-audio.c, i mean the shuttle_i2s_devices Also, look at the shuttle_audio_register_devices function. It is important to register first the platform devices, and then the i2c devices. We NEED DAS to be registered before any codec access is done! Also, in tegra_alc5624.c, look into the function tegra_snd_shuttle_probe. The call to tegra_asoc_utils_init is the one that enables the cdev clock. It is pretty important for this call to be done as soon as possible. Use the tegra_alc5624.c as a template on how and when to enable / disable and when to call asoc utils. Otherwise, cdev clocks won-t be enabled when you need them... And , there is very important point in the codec source itself. Look into alc5624.c, specifically the functions alc5624_i2c_probe and alc5624_probe The Alsa SOC calls alc5624_i2c_probe before calling the tegra_snd_shuttle_probe (tegra_alc5624.c). So, at this point, the cdev clock is not running, and codec registers can't be accessed or probed. You need to defer codec register access to alc5624_probe. Plese, use alc5624.c as a template on when to access registers. The reason behind all those dependencies is that the subsystem caling the *_i2c_probe is the i2c subsystem, And this subsystem initializes before Alsa. Alsa just tries to assemble a working sound subsystem, by calling first the sound_card driver (in tegra_slc5624.c) that gives the information on the relationships between the codec and i2s and das. Then, it will just try to probe each component by using alsa specific probe functions (alc5624_probe/das_probe/etc). The exact place where all those calls are done is when tegra_snd_shuttle_probe calls snd_soc_register_card(). If any probe function fails, the sound card is not registerred. By placing some printks on all those functions, you can easily see the call sequence And , yes, the 3.1 kernel allows to use a non fixed sampling rate. It will reprogram all clocks to get the expected sampling rate.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regarding voice, check logcat -b radio You are interested in the AT^VOICE command and its response. If it gives error, then your 3G modem does not support voice ... Not all huawei modems support voice, unfortunately... BTW, i was able to do calls and hang up communications without issue using this ril and an E169 dongle Maybe the modem is being turned off when the tablet is suspended.,.

AT^VOICE does not give an error, it says not found. I am on a Viewsonic 10s 3g internal modem. There is a perpetual cell signal in the taskbar. When tablet is called from a phone (pls see logs) the ring is recognized in the logs but no visual or audio indication is there on the tablet and the calling phone gets an unanswered message after some time. Also SMS cannot be sent or received. This was not the case with the earlier huawei files. Calls could be made and received along with ring tone and visual indication (phone ui) and sms could be sent or received. Only there was no audio through on the calls.

Tried this with a quick build and as you mention, sms sending and receiving is no issue, calling and receiving is not a problem, USSD code works. For me voice is not working and AT^VOICE does not give error but returns "not found". And still no 3g out of the box. Does it have something to do with the changes in the README attached. Will soon do a clean build and report back later. One query: The attached README from the huawei-generic folder - is it the one you want to be followed or are there changes to it since this file has remained constant over different editions.

The second logs radio from the time a call is made from the tablet to a phone to the time it is ended without voice being heard on either side over the call. I could get you any more logs that you need, please let me know. I have been checking this both with Scanno's Beta 1 ramdisk as well as one that i extracted from his Beta 1 boot.img and made sure that the init lines were there and repacked. These logs are with Scanno's Beta 1 boot.img/ramdisk. The cell network connects almost immediately on boot, something that was not happening earlier. Also, please note that the USSD code runs and tries to get a response but ends up with 'wrong MMI code or network not available' message on 2 networks. I am not sure that's a correct response as there is a valid output from these codes on another android phone.logcat-ril-210861.txtlogcat-calling-210861.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Scanno Posted August 21, 2012 Report Share Posted August 21, 2012 (edited) Is it a permissions issue? What needs to be done? We should be looking at the PPP scripts. They are from vegacream where they were working. So there may be some changes needed to make this work for jellybean and the new ril.
