Main issues on which help is needed

[sebanc]

Currently, the most common issues with brunch which could probably be fixed are:

• android apps not starting unless the user wait 1/2 minutes on the login screen.
• Internal microphone not working out of the box but that can be enabled by using alsa commands (Internal microphone not working #56)
• Bluetooth working from command line but not from the settings menu.
• Some USB cameras not working with "rammus" recovery image (but working correctly with "reef" or "samus" recovery images).
• Porting other sensors than Intel ISH to chromeos (bmc150, kxcjk-1013...)

I cannot reproduce those issues on my hardware and I feel like I am going nowhere.

Any pointer/help on those would be greatly appreciated.

microphone not working on dell inspiron 5458

[asukumar10248]

after running storage_test_2 and memory_test my laptop is now running fast and apps are also loading very fastly but is works in hdd only not in pendrive or usbstick

[asukumar10248]

To use this method
1 ctrl+alt+t
2 type memory_test
3 type storage_test_2
but use it after startup without opening any thing and be patient this process will take approx 5 hrs then restart your laptop

This may be noted elsewhere, but there is some movement on drivers for Surface cameras.

Hi @sebanc,

I have the 2-in-1 convertible Teclast F6 Pro with the Kionix KXCJ Sensor. Tablet mode detection and screen orientation does not work as with the other people in #89 or #808. However, I am able to retreive the accelerometer sensor data in the shell using one of the following commands:

Device 0 (Keyboard/Base accelerometer)
cat /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device0/in_accel_x_raw
cat /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device0/in_accel_y_raw
cat /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device0/in_accel_z_raw

Device 1 (Screen accelerometer)
cat /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device1/in_accel_x_raw
cat /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device1/in_accel_y_raw
cat /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device1/in_accel_z_raw

When I tilt my laptop base or screen in certain direction, I can manipulate the values accordingly.

I don't know if this is any help to getting the sensors to work with Chrome OS but at least it seems that they are actually delivering raw data. I have attached all the files that are within the folders and some examples of the values.

Kionix_Log.txt

Moreover, the two sensors can be found here:

chronos@localhost /sys/bus/acpi/devices/KIOX010A:00/physical_node $ cat /sys/bus/acpi/devices/KIOX010A:00/physical_node/uevent
DRIVER=kxcjk1013
MODALIAS=acpi:KIOX010A:KIOX010A:
chronos@localhost /sys/bus/acpi/devices/KIOX010A:00/physical_node $ cat /sys/bus/acpi/devices/KIOX020A:00/physical_node/uevent
DRIVER=kxcjk1013
MODALIAS=acpi:KIOX020A:KIOX020A:

The loaded modules are listed below:
chronos@localhost /sys/bus/acpi/devices/KIOX010A:00/physical_node/driver/i2c-KIOX010A:00 $ lsmod | grep kxcjk_1013
kxcjk_1013 24576 0
industrialio_triggered_buffer 16384 1 kxcjk_1013
industrialio 73728 3 industrialio_triggered_buffer,kfifo_buf,kxcjk_1013

Chassis type:
chronos@localhost /sys/bus/acpi/devices/KIOX010A:00/physical_node/driver/i2c-KIOX010A:00 $ cat /sys/class/dmi/id/chassis_type
10

Also here are is additional information about Kionix Accelerometers but I don't know what to do with it:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/iio/accel/kionix%2Ckxcjk1013.txt
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/iio/accel/kionix%2Ckxcjk1013.yaml

When comparing kxcjk-1013.c with cros_ec_sensors.c they already seem to be structured fairly similar, so I don't know which steps need to be undertaken to make the module functional. If you know how to further investigate please let me know

@sebanc
if you enable fast connect and bluetooth revamp from chrome flags bluetooth seems to work fine.

Thanks for the tip ! it is very interesting. I cannot really enable it by default cause it might break things for some without bluetooth issues but it most likely means Google will push this change in the next releases when it is stable.

@sebanc check this, I think you already know about this but is it possible for you to implement that ?
Just saw some issues about android apps not working.

[JaniszewskiM]

I found a solution that works for me (Thinkpad T460)
Android Apps not working in dark mode - disabling it solves the problem.

@sebanc Can I assist you somehow in figuring out why apps don't work without waiting on login screen ? ( I can't start play store or games most of the time - I login without waiting enough and then gotta reboot and wait again.... )

Like remote access to PC or something? Let me know ...
