AICP Q: Discussion

[tdm 2,322]

Figured out the issue with the keyboard backlight.  Lineage decided they wanted to add the keyboard backlight logic into the Android core (frameworks/base) and delete the keyboard backlight logic from the lights HAL.  This is Lineage specific -- neither AOSP nor AICP have it.  I made a brief attempt to add the Lineage code into AICP's frameworks/base but it didn't go smoothly.  So I'm just going to revert the change and move on.  I hope to have a new build within a few hours.

New build is up, the link in the OP is updated.  Changes:

 * Fixed keyboard backlight.

 * Fixed incremental file update.

 

New MD5: 8d557ea563667d1332dd99729fa5e4ca

 

This is a full update because the existing incremental updater is broken.  Future updates should be incremental and automatic, if all goes well.

Downloaded.  Installed smoothly and the keyboard backlight works! 🥇

Oh, and has the November security patch!

Does AICP include Lineage's SBC improvements?

I don't know, but my guess would be probably not.

Well, SBC is listed in AICP-Q

Settings,developer options, Bluetooth Audio Codec.

I have- no idea if it works though

[benoitjeffrey 61]

I know that option was under the devices settings in bluetooth connection and since AICP it isn't there anymore.

I don't really feel any difference since the update, IMO it all sounds the same .

I tried it and had the same IMS issue like with lineage 17.1, has anyone volte working?

[benoitjeffrey 61]

I'm on volte and everything works well on this side

[D1ggs 141]

@tdm i'm using this as my daily. I'll report back any bugs.

Oh reeeeeally. That's very pleasantly surprising. Especially when it's broken on Lineage.  Thanks for letting us know. 🙂

[shubell 39]

not really sure if i am gonna risk it 😉 and rollback if it is not working.

[benoitjeffrey 61]

I was on lineage 1 month ago and it worked fine too...

Or I'm missing something, I'm used to see the LTE asside everything else even while in call.

is there an other way to make sure it use it and not the old 3g?

Yes, under network, you can select LTE as the only allowed band for the sim

[shubell 39]

well in the lineage gerrit you can see that a IMS fix is beeing worked on. Can't be working on aicp as it is lieage based, or can it 😉

AICP is not Lineage based.  It does incorporate a lot of the QCOM hardware support and a few other things.  But it specifically does not use the Lineage SDK.  And I think the telephony stack is more similar to AOSP than Lineage.  So it is quite possible that VoLTE/IMS is working on AICP.  Though I haven't tested it myself, as my carrier still won't work with this device.  😕

so does this have google spyware and playstore and needs a gmail account to set up the phone??  or is this a better de-googled software than lineage?

Both run just fine without gapps.

so basically,, its more de-googled.. or just as much.  Sounds great! read the whole thread, will give this software a try.

[shubell 39]

will it be possible to have a swedish keymap on this ROM?

Preferably the same one as finQWERTY 

if that works, this will be my new daily ROM

With Swedish selected you do get @ on Sym+2 on AICP-Q 🙂

(Goes for both qwertZ and qwertY layout)

Thanks, we should have kept Norway and Denmark, would have been much easier with the "scandinavian" key maps 😆

 

Anyway, this is just great! Just when I managed to get my phone working on stock software I back for one more round, but this will be really interesting actually. 

 

Holding my thumbs now

Too bad Marethe did not manage to leave the legacy with the three united kingdoms. It certainly is silly with the tiny differences in orthography. My guess is that it was a silly attempt from the danes to distance themselves from German orthography ...
