Guest newbe5 Posted March 30, 2011 Report Posted March 30, 2011 (edited) YES YES YES YES FINALLY! this is HUGE news for Vega owners! Is this in 0.4? Edited March 30, 2011 by newbe5
Guest the_corvus Posted March 30, 2011 Report Posted March 30, 2011 YES YES YES YES FINALLY! this is HUGE news for Vega owners! Is this in 0.4? I must say that this has been BumbleBee work, not me. He is the one that modify the wifi module to not unload in standby. But have in mind that this will impact neg. in batt time. Corvus.

Guest ezynow Posted March 30, 2011 Report Posted March 30, 2011 Dude, You need to make it more clear what features are added by buzz in particular in your main post. It seems BUZZ'S hard work is not getting the credit it deserves. By slapping your name on a rom implies most of the significant changes are done by the owner. I suppose every little helps us Vegans so look forrward to newer versions. Cheers

Corvus has always stated that his Kernel is based on the Buzz kernel (which this feature was originally added in). But having the ability to do this in the Kernel means NOTHING if there is no setting within the ROM itself to enable it (in the wifi settings menu) and even the Buzz ROM doesn't actually have this feature yet, and so this IS the first ROM for the Vega that actually has this function working AFAIK. Also, ZZleeZZ doesn't need to give credit one way or the other, he didn't make the ROM, he's just pointing out an important feature. newbe5

Guest ezynow Posted March 30, 2011 Report Posted March 30, 2011 There is no link to buzz's thread in particular. Just one line he gets a mention. I am all for giving credit where its due. Dude i am new to android community so this seems strange to me thats all. i am all for open source development :D

Dude i am new to android community so this seems strange to me thats all. i am all for open source development :D nothing strange at all, Corvus gave buzz a few of the main ideas for his original kernel , then corvus took the work buzz did and improved it for his rom and then gave credit along with credit to paul etc etc , proper open source community development each feeding and benefiting the other
Guest the_corvus Posted March 30, 2011 Report Posted March 30, 2011 Buzz and I speak more that twice a week and share knowledge... is the way that the community grows. Like i said in my rom post, i must thank a lot of people.. i have my vega for 4 weeks now and take some things from gtab, from kernels, from other roms to make my rom, but this doesnt means i dont spend my time doing it and making some changes to improve it. I dont wanna reinvent the wheel... So, if some of the people whose work i take (like buzz, gojimi, weeds2000, etc.) feels that need a link or something, they are free to send me a pm and we can speak. (With some of them i did allready). Eitherway if you wants to thanks the person that make wifi-suspend fix, buzz and gojimi are your target... i only put his work together (you can thank me by this :D) Corvus.
Guest pdej Posted March 30, 2011 Report Posted March 30, 2011 Credit where credit is due and all that. Can I ask why is this such a useful feature? I have never really understood why people crave their vega's wifi to be on whilst it is in standby - maybe I'm missing something here? Surely it just uses more battery?

I have never really understood why people crave their vega's wifi to be on whilst it is in standby - maybe I'm missing something here? Surely it just uses more battery? Assuming the CPU sleep issues are also fixed this is huge because it allows the normal working of Android's timer events, without which nothing can sync when the device sleeps this means that unlike an android phone none of calendar/mail/rss/alarms/news/market updates/twitter/facebook/battery meter will be up to date when you wake up Without the CPU sleep issues fixed this isn't really useful (Have the Ventana power management fixes been backported?)
Guest zzleezz Posted March 30, 2011 Report Posted March 30, 2011 corvus rom link Discussion about the features of the rom really should go in the rom thread. Like I said at the start I only created this thread to announce the big news. I shall now go there and report my problems! :D

Mail coming in while it's a sleep... Spotify playing music while it's asleep... Sure, it's a tradeoff with batterylife but I'm very happy with at least having the option!

Well I`m giving it a try because of the sleep / standby problem . The alarms work which is a good piont , now is the battery like the killer. eg just like swiching the backlight off . I`ve fully charged mine and set the alarm clock for 4 hour . Switching backlight off and making it run as normal uses about 7% per hour , and about 10-15% per night on the old standbe which is basicly off . I will have to do the same time without wifi. Good work by the way !!! 2 hour = 96% Edited March 30, 2011 by peter a

Guest richardmlea Posted June 25, 2011 Report Posted June 25, 2011 Well I`m giving it a try because of the sleep / standby problem. Is the sleep/standby problem you are talking about the same as the problem I am having. When my Vega go's into standyby (say I don't touch it for a few minutes) when I turn it on again the wifi doesn't work. It says it is connected but no internet apps work. To get it working I just need to turn the wifi off and on again, then works correctly but the problem is annoying. Is this he same issue and is there a fix for it? Cheers Richard
