[ROM][BETA] Quattrimus ICS (ZVD)

[jcruckus]

Is there any chance video will be fixed for ICS and up? Its really a major drawback, even though everything else is smooth as butter. Thank you VERY much for your work on these roms for the Optimus!

Edit: CM9 video playback of recorded items, video playback of online videos, etc...through the built in playback feature. It's really the only thing missing from this rom to make it flawless.

What's wrong with your video?

I might take a look. It's a persistent complaint by users.

Note- The Gapps link from the primary source link is no longer functional (TheKraven is no longer hosting the file in his goo.im apparently). The "Alternate" source (VMroms) appears to still work.

That one didn't work for me either but similarly to Barnacle Tether, it seems to work for most people.

I wonder though, is it normal for the channel that your machine sees when using Ad-Hoc WiFi tethering programs to be different from the one you set in the settings of the application? Both my laptop and my router's site survey tools always see these Ad-Hoc mode tether programs as being channel 1 even when I set it to channel 6 or 11.

I don't know about niceguy but my WiFi tethering issue is related to the fact that I can get my laptop to see the network and connect but it never receives an IP address from my phone so the connection attempt times out.

Just as an aside, my phone does connect to WiFi correctly as a client so I'm pretty sure that nothing is wrong with the hardware.

Go back to the "wireless tether" download site and pick an older version (the newer ones don't work but 2.0.7 works for me on my daughter's Optimus).

Thanks, with the exception of an unfortunate lack of WPA encryption, that does the trick ^_^

However, I am having a new problem that may actually have existed without me noticing for a while now. For some reason almost every app that I try to update or install from the Play Store gives me one of three errors, Insufficient Space, Package File is Invalid, or Invalid Download URI. In fact, I purposely uninstalled the BusyBox updater application and tried to just install its newer version since I don't have any saved settings in there anyway and it's still giving me the Insufficient Space error.

So, I fired up ADB to check my free space and here's what it tells me:

It looks like the /data partition is still on internal storage, is that supposed to be the case? If so, does anyone have any ideas about how to clear some of that up since I've uninstalled about 10 applications since the first time I checked this screen and the used space in /data hasn't moved more than about 50KB.

Did you create the sd-ext partition on your sd card? tdk included a script that will automatically move the apps to the partition....if you created one! I had similar package file invalid errors and had to goto "manage apps" then clear cache and data for google play and google services framework. After that I stopped getting those errors.

I'm about to try clearing Google Play and Google Services Framework cache but, my post does say:

/dev/block/mmcblk0p2   1032088    387092    592568  40% /[B]sd-ext[/B]
/dev/block/mmcblk0p2   1032088    387092    592568  40% /data/dalvik-cache
/dev/block/mmcblk0p2   1032088    387092    592568  40% /data/app

I have a 1 GB SD-Ext partition set up and /data/dalvik-cache and /data/app are both on it but /data/data isn't and with the above exceptions the /data partition is still on the internal memory. I'm just asking which partitions are supposed to be moved by the built-in sd-ext script since my /data partition is quite full.

EDIT: Ok, somehow, it's gotten worse. Random FC's everywhere >_< I'm going to try to back up my SMS's (my midnight auto backup failed today...) and perform a clean install. In fact I think I'll back up the Fat32 part of my SD card and re-partition it. I had to do that once about six-months ago when funny issues started to appear with my SD-Ext partition.

I haven't seen anyone post this, but I notice if I use a headset, the mic turns off and no one can hear me. I thought it was my headset but I tested on my Evo and it works. I used another headset and still have the issue. Just wondering if anyone has any idea on a fix? Thanks!

Known issue in the audio routing. Don't know if there is an easy fix or not.

Ok, I've purchased a new 16GB Class 10 microSD card, partitioned it (15GB Fat32/1GB ext4) and performed a fresh install of Quattrimus ICS AOKP. While installing apps I have once again noticed that my internal available space seems to be disappearing. From what I can tell, it looks like some data from each app is remaining on internal memory while the majority is being stored on the sd-ext partition. Here's the current output from a df command in an adb shell:

root@android:/ # df
df
Filesystem             Size   Used   Free   Blksize
/dev                   209M    48K   209M   4096
/mnt/asec              209M     0K   209M   4096
/mnt/obb               209M     0K   209M   4096
/system                158M   150M     8M   4096
/data                  164M   147M    17M   4096
/cache                 124M     1M   122M   4096
/sd-ext                960M   541M   418M   1024
/data/dalvik-cache     960M   541M   418M   1024
/data/app              960M   541M   418M   1024
/mnt/sdcard             13G     6G     7G   8192
/mnt/secure/asec        13G     6G     7G   8192

From this it seems like /data has about 17 MB free and that my sd-ext still has about 418 MB free. The good news is that some other issues, which in hindsight are probably related to the fact that my old sd-card was slowly failing, have disappeared.

What is not moving is /data/data/app, which is (in essence) app cache and libraries. Your dalvik (app data prefetch) and apps themselves are moving. If you clear the cache thru Titanium Backup (Batch Jobs-->Manipulate data-->Clear cache for user & system apps), you'll see more free internal space, until an app is used.

I notice a marked decrease in speed if I move app, data, dalvik and cache all to ext.

Oh, I see. Thanks for the information. [Time Passes] Yup, that freed up 40 MB or so on internal memory which, seems to have been enough space to install my last three apps.

I do wonder though, which apps that I have installed have such huge libraries. Since even just after I clear my cache, I still only have 25.3 MB free on internal memory.

Question: Is development of this mod continuing, and if so, will the "nightlies" build be updated? I believe the last "nightlies" build was 2 months ago, older than the beta2 build. Thanks!

I'm working on other projects for a while. When I swing back around to this, I'll fix a couple remaining issues and then start a jb ROM.
