Guest pier11 Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 This sould be done in any case since our phone does not support automatic brightness, there is no sensor for it (as far as I know). Just disabling this option does not turn leds on. But maybe worth to flash u8150 rom once again and check if lights work there when disabling automatic brightness. If so, we would have to find out how to "port" that condition to um840... should be in ramdisk then... not exactly ramdisk, u8150 kernel was from normal branch, while I used compat-kernel on um840 to please cameras. That means it contain compat-hack for leds naming: "button-backlight" -> "keyboard-backlight"I'd revert the hack, but we still did not figure solution what to change in cm7 to adopt it to normal froyo-kernel namings.

Guest lloco73 Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 tested again the UM840 rom (allready rooted and app2sd) replaced libloc_api.so and deleted libloc_api-rpc.so now gps is working but i noted that sattelite fixes are always changing, from 0/0 to 5/5 to again 0/0 and so on. also i think that wifi suffers from the same as cm7.2 rom for info with all apk moved from data/app to system space in use is 135,6MB.

I tried DT Apps2SD yesterday, but for some reason, it refused to move cache to sd and also refused to enable swap. (cm7 worked fine with the exact same sd card). Any ideas?

That commit you linked to is everything that toggles compat for sensors + leds? Rotations works on latest um840 rom - does this mean you have replaced sensors lib there to accomodate compat kernel? edit: no I guess you didn't need to, because compat kernel no longer contains sensors part of said commit... right?

Any ideas? for info i've managed to have root on the um840-20120213, added superuser, apps2sd and busybox but unfortanely for the U8220 people i think they don't have sufficient space on system partition(110,91MB is the used space). This huge need of space is due to the huge number of languages included on this rom, i think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest pier11 Posted February 15, 2012 Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 (edited) I tried some experiment with UM840 ROM and Keypad LED working :D 1. Replace boot.img UM840 with boot.img u8150 2. Change Setting - Display - Brightness (uncheck automatic brightness) just trigger to make keypad LED on Edit Back off when screen off :blink: maybe we should edit build.prop or any file to configure to make (no automatic brightness) default on booting sorry for my english Tested that, leds turn on only after the toggle of screen auto-brightness, but stay off after again. So not a solution. Ascend have proper lights control. (dr.flo's mini-ascend rom for pulse is available somewhere in this thread) It is controlled via build.prop, but something else is involved too. But it's weird - enabling it in build.prop disables WiFi hotspot option in menu. Edited February 15, 2012 by pier11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One general question: How do you create your initial flashable zips from stock roms. Is there some tool to convert system.img into flashable zip? Maybe with option to (or not to) deodex?

(i'd guess if apply to u8150, it'd make it better, and may be even help its radio work.) Thanks! I'm trying to understand this deodex and related stuff. Could it be that apps on /data/app didn't work in um840 rom because they were deodexed and not signed again? I've read from some other custom roms things like "deodexed and signed"...

Tested by me. Might just be that somehow system apps are not checked for valid signature since they are (normally) not modified and are thus "trusted" by the system regardless of signature?

So either to replace the apps from Market, or just remove completely to give that option to install what needed to user. This is the way gapps packaged for gingerbread - only core is installed - the rest - go to Market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dr.flo Posted February 15, 2012 Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 (edited) ... to give that option to install what needed to user. That's what I would do for now. But when I played with cm6-clean and only installed market app, I found that although market was fully functional, I could not install GMail from there - it would never show up in search results, while other google apps (Maps, Voicesearch etc) showed up. Searching market in the PC shows GMail. Something in the phone prevented it from showing. Edited February 15, 2012 by dr.flo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
