Re: [ROM+Kernel] MiRaGe-CM7.2-IHO
I have updated the builds to include two fixes
- Fix occasional completely mute incoming call in Phone.apk
- Timestamp doesn't contain date info, therefore we need to construct it and adjust it if daylight savings applies in frameworks base
Please see the OP to find the download links. The details of the changes are in the CM code review site linked in the OP.Thanked by 5: - 06-11-2012, 04:00 PM #54
Re: [ROM+Kernel] MiRaGe-CM7.2-IHO
Mrg - you're right, when something like that used to happen, I would uninstall and install the app again (that happened with maps 1 time). But this time, whatever I do doesn't let me install maps whatsoever.
wiping cache/resetting dalvik cache/installing the new rom - same situation.
Don't feel like doing a factory reset... but I might as well do that if the build from today doesn't fix it

Re: [ROM+Kernel] MiRaGe-CM7.2-IHO
About to download it now. One question: Any chance the mute call issue could also apply to outgoing calls? I ask because I've had that happen lately -- but I assumed it was a VMU network issue, particularly after curtis mentioned they had network problems.
Thanks a lot!
Edit: After almost an hour and a dozen failed attempts, I have to give up downloading from Mediafire. It's not the usual User Agent problem (which they fixed again) nor the Open Link in New Window (which I always do). Half the time, they re-direct me to a spamsucking "Congratulations, you won a reward" site that gives me a pop-up for my approval to install malware. The other times it now gives me a captcha that is simply unreadable (never saw that before on Mediafire). I actually did manage to get the download going one of the first times (before the captcha) but I cancelled when it was still only at 6% after 15 minutes :-(
I'll try again tomorrow when I am at my PC. Meantime, if others discover something, I am all ears. Thanks in advance!Last edited by Dannemand; 06-11-2012 at 07:35 PM.

Re: [ROM+Kernel] MiRaGe-CM7.2-IHO
Download is working now. I have never seen that spam redirection in Mediafire. Are you sure it is from the Mediafire site? I am using Chrome on my PC with adblocking. That might be the reason.
Mute call fix is for incoming calls. I don't think it is affecting the outgoing calls.Thanked by 2: - 06-11-2012, 07:48 PM #61

Re: [ROM+Kernel] MiRaGe-CM7.2-IHO
Thanks, mrg. I finally got it now -- on my phone. No redirects or captchas this time.
I've never seen those spam redirects or popups on Mediafire either. I am sure it must be one of the ads that hijacks the page, not Mediafire itself.
Thanks again, about to flash (after checking MD5!) - 06-11-2012, 07:58 PM #65
Re: [ROM+Kernel] MiRaGe-CM7.2-IHO
Thx rebel. I think it must've been a different popup: This seemed like an actual modal MsgBox popup (not browser rendered) and didn't respont to any buttons or actions other than cliocking OK. I immediately cleared my cache, history, cookies each time. This last time it worked, though.

Re: [ROM+Kernel] MiRaGe-CM7.2-IHO
@mrg: Got it, flashed it, everything seems to work. Did my usual tests: camera, webcam, gallery & JustPics, SMS, MMS, contacts, calendar, incoming & outgoing phone call, browser, gmail, maps (with GPS), tapatalk, and a few other apps -- including a game of Monopoly

Just enabled OC now. We'll see how it goes the news few days. So far another winner. Thank you, man! - 06-12-2012, 04:55 AM #68

I have added a "Suggestions & Recommendations" section to help with some common questions. Please post if you have suggestions as well. I can add into that section.

Re: [ROM+Kernel] MiRaGe-CM7.2-IHO
Definitely cooler than a penguin.

I actually wonder why so many companies choose to use Linux as the base of their product when BSD is sitting right there with no pesky GPL encumbrances. For example, in Android, they have an entirely custom userspace from libc on up. I can't imagine it would have been difficult to use eg. FreeBSD for a kernel. The only reasons I can think of are that (1) ARM is a second tier platform on FreeBSD, and (2) everyone is familiar with Linux due to its popularity, so finding developers to employ is easier.
Not that I'm sad about the decision, mind you -- I love Linux, and using the Linux kernel means that all vendors are required to publish kernel sources, at least.

Re: [ROM+Kernel] MiRaGe-CM7.2-IHO
I think the popularity of Linux is because of its development has been and is being done at a much faster pace by much larger group of developers than BSD. I think Linus deserves a lot of credit for his dedication and leadership that enabled this. I just counted. There are 11 devices running Linux kernel 24/7 at home right now. I have always wanted trying a BSD version but there has never been a practical reason to do this.
