Many good news!

So, I've many good news to tel you, although they are not releated to audio!

One of them is that, as an admin of androidarmv6, they leave me the honor to port BCM21553 drivers and devices configurations to androidarmv6 organisation! (Branch ics-plus).
For poeple that do not know what androidarmv6 organisation is, I'll make you an explanation:
Androidarmv6 is an origanisation created to bring latest android versions to armv6 devices (mainly msm7x27 devices). Those armv6 devices were discontinued by Google and by CyanogenMod when ICS was released. Androidarmv6 is the organisation that keeps this devices updated.
In other words, androidarmv6 is CyanogenMod for armv6 devices. And getting support from them (us) will improve alot (not ICS, but maybe Jelly Bean or KK). The porting to androidarmv6 repos will start after my exams are over...

Second new, Alberto96 has made a good work, and we have ported all the changes to BroadcomCM organisation. I've build the changes and test them. I can surely say that new version will be the SMOOTHER ROM ever made for BCM21553 devices. Also they are smaller fixes too, but for the moment, it is a nice work made by us! Everything as always on BroadcomCM github. Drivers still very unstable, lots of FCs, not yet prepared for release. Video? there you have it:



Another good new I have is the common kernel. It is not yet stable, and I have not tested on other devices. Everytime I tried to make a common kernel, the kernel resulting on not booting... and why? Because of bad vermagic verision! Thanks to Alberto96 and TheWhisp we have fixed bad vermagic (a bug which Rafael Bauguis fight alot with) and we can create new kernel versions without breaking modules loading! That's awsome, so commo kernel can be started.


And well, that's releated to the kernel too. I've succefully added some simple governors and I/O schedurels thanks to lopicl.00, he provide me the source. Also a new logarithm is added to create new frequencies (still need to be tested), at the moment 6 frequencies are added. NO OVERCLOCK is permitted on our board at the moment, so don't ask me that too.

Stay tuned for more news, and... time to study again!

  2. BroadcomCM is doing very nice job...
    It is great to see Android ICS on Armv6 devices.....
    But I think that You forget about Some Bcm21553 Dual Sim devices like Samsung Galaxy Y Duos and Samsung Galaxy Pocket Duos
    Which are Still Popular in India....
    So please give some support to these dual sim devices too...
    And For Pocket Duos S5302 There is an Ics Open Source is Available... And You got New Drivers source from Broadcom (U made it possible) Which means now S5302 can handle android ICS ... So I requesting Your team that Plz Make a thing like Android ICS RoM For S5302 too...

    2. Erm, that's OK as long as we will have chances of having cm10 or 11(if possible) then I'll wait. But First let's expect a stable cm9 on broad com devices.

      Delete
    3. Maybe cm10/11 will come and by that time you wont be a kid anymore XP but who knows, maybe you'll be the one whose gonna develop it for galaxy y :D i think of that myself too XD

  21. Sir Bieltv3 and other devs, this is the list of bugs that I found to our device tororo (Samsung Galaxy Y) when using yout ROM
    - Stock Gallery ICS, when I played video, the colors are swapped to blue, etc... When I use MX Player, when I used H/W decoder, it looks like when I play video in Stock Gallery ICS; and when I switched to S/W decoder, the colors are fixed. So I conclude that Stock Gallery ICS uses a H/W Decoder to play videos. So there's a bug in H/W decoder.
    - Stock Gallery ICS Settings not work.
    - Camera
    - When I used Advanced Tools, the compass, magnetic sensor, earth magnetic sensor, protractor, and level are not work. So that, Magnetic Sensor is not working.
    - Microphone
    - Front Speaker
    - When Bluetooth switch off, fc something come out (com.android.com)
    - Data Connection not working/ 3G

    I hope you will fix it... Thank You for the smooth ics rom.. All is working fine... Thanks to all...
    Keep up the good work.. :)

      if you have downloaded them from the play store and this happens this maybe due to the issue of data on the sd card - it has been reported that apps that have been moved or have data stored on the sd card cause the phone to reboot when the data is being read - the only way round this at the moment is to have all apps and data on internal storage

  30. Guys, the play store bug is also related to the kernel I think.
    On cm7 I'm using thesame kernel.

  35. I think i know why it take so long ti release beta 5.

    I saw his video and there are some bugs that are back (just like in beta 3)

    -1% battery bug is back
    -RIL is broken (i think)

    so i think bieltv.3 is trying to fix this
    Aside from taking exams :D

    Remember: THIS IS MY OPINION ON WHAT I SEE SO DONT REPLY SOME CRAPPY COMMENTS REGARDING ON THIS COMMENT. ALSO THIS ARE THE BUGS I SAW IN HIS VIDEO IM NOT SURE IF THAT IS THE REAL BUG SO DONT GET IT TOO FAR ENOUGH.
