Frustated from cm7 - Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ill be short i just found one more disadvantage on cm7. again diassapointed oh
Cm7 Recording Camera laggs a lot, i was recording a video while moving and when i was watching it it was lagging so much. Then flashed stock and start moving and recording again and it was all perfect without any laggs.
I wonder how u guys still didnt report camera recording lagg? Just found it on kit kat cm7 rom.
Now i know why Mr.Biel quited ^^
P.S. we really need those libs, otherwise we are so stucked

[FIX] Hardware Video Decoder Lag Fix [2.3 / xRecovery]

If you watch videos encoded in high quality resolutions above 854x480, H.264 or MPEG4 and a pretty high bitrate, you might notice that video playback is laggy and not fluid with custom ROMs. This flashable zip package is supposed to fix that.
Tested
Stable - Any ROM based on stock 2.3.3 (Wolfs TW Gingerbread, Blue Sparks, Ultima GB etc.)
Stable - Most xRecovery-based CM7 ROMs (ZMOD, SpaarcMOD, FreeXperia Sony UI Achotjan etc.)
Stuck on boot - MIUI ROMs
Untested
FXP CM7 (won't work anyways since it uses CWM)
Special thanks to
zdzihu
EDIT: I've uploaded a test video to check whether video decoder lag is present or not.
http://puu.sh/5j8h/SmoothnessTest.mp4 (854x480, H.264, 5 mbit/s)
If it stutters during playback, that's an indication that the video is lagging.
This fix will not eliminate the problem but will reduce the lag by a huge margin.
I noticed this while watching videos with camera panning, they looked very juddery.
Anyone tried this? Just wondering what the original problem was.

So, this should enable me (us) to play 720p Youtube vids?
never notist a problem and if there whas a problem, Z would have notist and came with the solution.
I think i would not flash this before making a back up.

You already play hd youtube.
Guys, please play the video in the OP on your phone and see whether it lags or not.

Why do you feel like discouraging people who try to offer something to the community?
On the one hand, there are tons of threads in General section
whining about people moving on from the X10 and development stalling,
and then there are post like yours... It's just not right.
Anyway, @OP, I played the test video and noticed no lags.
Could you explain what is it that you changed in the .so libraries please?
And why some people have the issue and others don't?
Thank you very much!
Okay. Downloaded the files. Tested the video. It does stutter a little.
Tested with scary gov. Running video twice... 22sec at 128mhz. And none over 500mhz! So its not decoding over cpu
P.s. Yes, also did with performance. Same problem.
Now gonna make backup. And then flash file.
Noticed the lag myself. So maybe it's missing a video codec, so it's not using hardware rendering.
I'll flash the fix and see if it works.

It depends.
On modded stock ROMs, if the dev included z's audio lag fix, this problem will surface.
On custom ROMs (CM7 for example), the issue is already there.
This zip simply replaces the libs with those from stock ROM.
PS: It was one of the reasons why I didn't use Froyo custom ROMs.

So, it will give us back the audio lag while listening to music then?

You could have also said this in first Post, right?
flashed it and saw no big difference. I'm on WB4.0.4
Maybe he already included it.
P.s. Your test video is not realy high res ^^ does 1080p work on our phone? Depens on bitrate i guess.

Technically, yes. Personally, I rarely get any audio lags while listening to music except when there's CPU heavy stuff going on like installing a large app from the Market.

But I got terrible audiolag before Z's fix when listening to music, even when this was the only thing I did (no other tasks running, screen off).

It may be because I'm running a custom kernel. Barely any audio lag.
Is it possible to play the pps.tv with h.264?

Not really. We play HQ YT vids aka 480p
Try DL-ing a 720p or even a 1080p vid and play it... see what happens. Not to mention HD divx/xvid content
P.S. regarding audio lag. I still experience it while underclocking to 128MHz. It's doesn't happen while the sleep FQ is at 245, though

Sorry dude but answer is NO!
No one can't help you and if you wanna understand why then check my post on miniCM treat about SONY CAMERA mystery. You will see no one dare answer my post coz I'm right on it.
There no dev who can deal with the experia and SONY camera.
The whole thing is alien tech and humans can't handle it.
Don't laught ! Jus go and read

Hi
At the moment i'm using the custom rom "MiniCM7-2.2.0" for my X10 Mini.
Well, unfortunately i'm having some issues with the implemented camcorder...
1. The recorded videos are stuttering. I've checked the framerate with the tool GSpot and it says 56 fps. Actually the video should be smooth with that framerate, but for some reason it's still stuttering.
Any solution for that? Would it help to overclock the cpu a bit? If yes, what is the maximum MHz i can choose without destroying my phone?
2. There is another problem with the camcorder:
When i'm recording outside in daylight, the video is much too bright - sometimes the whole screen goes white!
But when i'm recording inside where it's darker then outside, the video is much too dark - i can't barely see anyting on the display...
That also happens when i'm recording outside and then get inside in a darker place (still recording) - suddenly the whole video becomes totally dark - nearly black.
Am i the only person with this problem?
Well, then i tried lgcamera (latest version).
But that camcorder app also doesn't work properly.
As soon as i press the record button, the video freezes (not the app, just the video). All i can see then is a freezed picture. But that only happens on custom roms. I've tried several custom roms (gingerbread and froyo-roms) and several versions of lgcamera, but videorecording always freezes as soon as i press the record button...
Then i tried lgcamera on the 2.1 stock rom.
On the stock rom it doesn't freeze during video recording, but instead the same issues occur like with the implemented video camera in the custom roms: outside the video gets too bright and inside the video gets too dark! Well, at least the videos aren't stuttering on the custom rom using lgcamera...
I've read many times on this forum that people are using lgcamera without any problems on the X10 Mini - even on a custom rom! So how come it isn't working for me?
The only camera that does work properly is the stock camera in the 2.1 stock rom.
But i would like to stay on gingerbread or at least froyo...
Please, can anybody help me with this?

Well buddy.. I've got issues with the camera also.. Tried every app.. and unfortunately every app and setting failed.
centerguy said:
Well, that really sucks
I've just read your post in the CM7-thread (btw. very funny explanation of the camera ).
In that case i'll switch back to the 2.1-stock rom, because i really need/want a good camcorder. And the stock one in the original rom ist just amazing for such a small mobile phone. Continuous auto focus ftw!
Well, thanks anyway for your reply.

Click to collapse
Yes you right in 2.1 camera its amazing coz its maked and compiled by aliens.
Yeah my post is funny coz when I wrote it I was 100000% pissed of by the ugly android camera.
Yeah I'm using minicm for cost of my camera but this is coz I have ST15i the x mini next brother of our mini and use its camera for my needs.
I'm much in with cameras I'm amateur photographer ,displays colours , saturation , optics , HD, pixels and so on , all this things its like my seccond nature. That's why I wrote this post there on miniCM treat and like you see no one answer on it.
And in the end its soo strange how devs can port hack make and etc whole OS but when job come to camera its go to dead end.
Only reasonable explanation is Aliens coz only Sony can make this happen.
Wish I had some pall from Sony to ask him to make camera work but I haven't ....

Any ROM based on Android 4.x with Video record working at least the same as on stock?

Hi,
Is there any ROM based on Android 4.x which has Video recording not lagging? The same level of performance as on stock will be quite enough for me... No lagging while video playback would be also nice to have. I have tried Jokersax cm9 and cm10 and both didn't have these things working. Anyway, I would like to thank Jokersax and his work done to offer community the newest fancy stuff .
Or there's a common issue with drivers which prevents having video recording working stable in any ROM on Android 4.x? Is there any other option rather than waiting for official Android ICS release for MoPho?
Thank in advance for replying.

there's no drivers available for us to use for ICS/JB. so everything is hacked to kinda work. in this case it means lots of 2d related things don't work. video recording for example. JB is quite jittery at times. all due to lack of drivers.
if you want a stable rom with everything working. use a gingerbread rom.

CM7 by JOKERSAX is definately the best option for the most stable opperating system in my eyes, no offence to other builds or devs.
the cm10 version is running great for me after doing very small mods to get it working. I DO HAVE WORKING VIDEO ON CM10!!
The video illusions is the only video camera app ive had that works well and dosnt seem to run verry slow.. i had to disable HWA on the gallery and on the camera and the video cam app to reduce jitter and FC. but CM10 or any AOKP seems to be verry solid, i love to run AOKP JB roms from time to time to switch things up, THEBILL has a great selection to offer, jump to page 1 on any build to see what is still broken (borked?)
but the issue is that the drivers are hacked up from gingerbread and this is the best it will be + a few mods to improve quality until the release of ICS comes out, big hopes now with the photon Q being out and running ics/Jb
GOOD LUCK
let me know if i helped any!!

[Q] video lag after installing cm10 rom

I installed cm10 rom on my tab 10.1 its great and smooth but when I come to playing videos it is very bad, the youtube video lag too much on the app and the browser ... and the downloaded videos from youtube (720p) lag also on the video player ... I did a quaderant benchmark and I noticed somthing, the 2D result is too too low its about 55 and the bar is almost invisible ... so if anyone have the same problem or know the way to fix it please advise me .... THANK YOU
Oh my god !!! .... xda developeers where are you ??? Please help.
that's how the p7500 handles CM10 ICS or JB.
I'd advise to stick to stock ICS for smooth video, that's the only solution I found

I was on CM10, it crashed and died, had to flash Stock 4.0.4 and, as far as I remember, I could watch YT HD videos quite comfortably, with minor hiccups when some intensive scenes like water ripples, sea were rendered. I then flashed tryptosylls 4.1.2 AOKP and video lags a hell lot now!
Thanks .. I think I have to flash the stock rom .... i've alrady overclocked but the same problem stills.
Can someone link me to a good rom for the galaxy tab 10.1 ??
Look in the development section. You can do it!
I'm asking cause i need rom without this problem ..... I won't try every rom in the section !!!
I see the same issue in my phone as well. But this happens because of poor hardware acceleration support. U can fix this by adding a line to build.prop file. What u need to do is change or add video.acceleration.hw = 0. 0 means disable and 1 means enable. After changing this, I did not face issues while palying videos on youtube.
Anyway, very hq videos plays good with hw accelation. But still u can try ur luck.
Hit thanks if I help u.

[Q] CM9 camcorder Problem means ??

small question please .... Does the CM9 camcorder problem means that there is no video recording at all or no recording HD 720p ???

No video recording at all. Developers havent yet figured out how to make it work on CM9 or CM10. Honestly I doubt that it will ever work. Keep your fingers crossed though. :fingers-crossed:
thanks man for quick reply ..... i think GB roms very stable and fast than ICS & JB, also everything on it working properly with no issues ...
