What's the mod you made? GV isn't working for me.

Notice in the update package that when i have full battery life in windows, in android it says it has about 10%. Is there a way to fix that? Thanks.

At this point the battery level is not working. This is a work in progress and they are making some head way with it. Remember this a still in dev and there are some things that are quirky. Check back in a few weeks and maybe we will have an answer for you then.

So lots of comments to read through but what i have gotten from this thread and
http://www.androidonhtc.com/wiki/Port_Status

is that charging works, but audio for pandora does not...correct?

I'm going to try the one from
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=601751

and the other one posted on here

Yeah that comment was eye-opening. I've been keeping an eye on this thread waiting for audio -- I would easily use android full-time if I could use ringtones, run pandora, use voice commands, etc. So hearing how far it has to go was a little disheartening.

So, rather than giving up or sitting back hoping and waiting... Do the devs have anything in particular they need help with? I'm a nerd with background in programming and DSP, though I've never dug into anything like linux kernel work. I'd be happy to tinker with the audio, but I don't even know where to start. Is there a dev thread (as opposed to this, which is more of a user thread) where developers are talking about the audio issue, and the nitty gritty details of what would need to happen? I might likely be in over my head, but still I've got a couple hours train ride every day, maybe I could poke into this if I had any idea where to start. I'd imagine there might be others in this same situation -- if anyone wants some help and knows how to make use of all of us aching for audio...

That's helpful. Maybe I just need to grab that and start monkeying around...

I was also hoping that there would be notes somewhere specific to Rhodium audio, something like:
- these are the chunks of audio-related code that have been validated and don't need to be looked at
- these are the chunks of code that definitely do need to be modified
- here are similar drivers from XXX that we might try adapting to this

Maybe I'm just asking for too much hand-holding. Or maybe this stuff is already there somewhere (I haven't done my homework digging through the git repository, sorry). But rather than me dumbly staring at the whole thing trying to figure out how to fix audio (especially as a non-linux-expert), I guess I'm looking to leverage someone else's detective work to find some audio-specific starting places within the whole thing. I think I'm much more likely to help at the low-level than the high-level, but I probably need some guidance through the high-level to find the right low-level thing to monkey with...

The 4/9 build is very smooth/fast in my opinion. I like it!
