Basically theres no worries flashing daily.

I think everyone flashes pretty often until they find a rom they really like.

I tried Continuum, Andromeda, something from the kitchen, Serendipity(and the rom before it, which I can't remember the name of), and settled with Serendipity until recently moving to MIUI.

Essentially the downside to flashing often is that the rom does not have time to adjust to your phone. Particularly if your wiping the cache each time you flash, your phone will be slower as it is rebuilt. Also the rom won't have really any idea about the battery or how long it usually lasts. Because of this, your battery meter will be less accurate and battery life will be worse.

But that only lasts for as long as your flashing every day. And particularly once you decide on a rom, you should erase the battery stats to give it a fresh start.

Battery calibration will probably be screwed up, but I doubt you will damage the battery.

I've been maintaining AR.Pro for Android for about two months now. Figured it time I open up a thread here to help those in need of adhoc enabling their devices or if they have questions about AR.Pro in general.

​

AR.Pro does more than just act as a remote control of the Parrot AR.Drone. It has quite a long feature list ranging from object detection and tracking, to complete control over the configuration of your drone, including forward and back flashing firmwares, rebooting it remotely, and even applying a patch that frees the drone of its gimped adhoc only setup, enabling it to connect to Access Points and Hotspots.

[YOUTUBE]5hwWPNZetJo[/YOUTUBE]​

I maintain a blog for the application (and have associated help pages) at my website: http://www.shellware.com

Additionally I'm currently maintaining two versions of AR.Pro. AR.Pro Lite is a limited function free download and the full version of AR.Pro has an extensive features list:

Firmware 1.4.7 and 1.5.1 Swap

Adaptive Video Support

Android Tablet Support

Full Function Flight Mode (Sensors & Right Pad)

Reversible X/Y Axis Orientation

Deadzone tuning on all axis

Configurable Flight Controls

Object Recognition via Both Cameras

Object Follow/Tracking

Azimuth Based Yaw (Requires Compass)

Yaw Mixing and Rate Control

Flight Timer

Audible Alerts

Infrastructure Wi-Fi Patch

Device Pairing

Rename Drone

Drone Reboot

Optimized NAVDATA Reception

Outdoors / Hull Selection

Altitude LImiter

Built-in Anti-Fly away (not fully tested)

Altitude HUD

Battery Voltage HUD

Shellware's own "Autonomous Flight" option

Complete OpenGL overhaul (features full QVGA display)

"Snapshot" screen shot option

Auto Connect for saved SSIDs option

Metric system support

Drone SSID change option

Drone IP address setting

Information about the Parrot AR.Drone itself can be found here.

And here is the Market link for AR.Pro:

​

I'll be posting additional links over the next couple days going into a little more detail with AR.Pro's Infrastructure Wi-Fi Patch as well as provide some pointers for those wishing to apply wpa_supplicant to their android device to adhoc enable it.

Enjoy!
[Android Apps and Games] Synman:
I can confirm that the ardrone works flawlessly with wifi tether for root users. It took all of 2 minutes to get my drone working with my (rooted) wifi only xoom.

Determine what the adhoc essid is that your drone (normally) hosts. This is typically ardrone_XXXXXX where XXXXXX is the few digits of your drone's serial number.

Open wifi tether (I tested using the latest version available at http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/list). Select adhoc as the setup-method. Select Change-Lan and use 192.168.1.0/24 as the selected network. Select Change-Ssid and change it to the adhoc essid usually managed by your drone.

Make sure your drone is powered down.

Enable wifi tether and wait for it to become active.

Power up your ardrone, wait for its lights to go green then connect to it using its default address (192.168.1.1) from your favorite android ardrone app.

Go fly!

Any feed back on HTC devices

I am on HTC Desire HD and HTC Incredible S

I can only connect to Ardrone by following your manual infrastructure guide.

But this is very annoying as I have to carry my laptop everywhere I go because on each reboot I have to repeat the whole procedure

Just got the ar drone and xoom (rooted w/ ad-hoc enabled).

Using the AR Pro app i cannot get the camera facing down to work.

Couldn't get it to update from 1.1.3 to 1.4.7or1.5.1 (couldn't ftp update either, had to use a iProduct and give it some version # via telnet)

But the camera, why does it not work??
[Android Apps and Games] Synman:
Odd state your drone was in.

AR.Pro's firmware installation process does reset any existing version information on the drone so that it can be downgraded/upgraded. If you were on firmware 1.1.3 it is possible that the ROM's file system has some subtle differences. I have seen a couple drones in an odd state as shipped from Parrot with a couple different people too -- missing symlinks / mounts, etc.

I suspect now that you're on 1.4.7 you can flash forward/backward through AR.Pro without issue.

Parrot broke backwards compatibility for the camera controls when it released 1.4.7. It should work fine on a Xoom (Xoom wifi is one of my test devices) using the latest firmware.
[Android Apps and Games] cobrahicks:
I believe this somewhat explains or just acknowledged the upgrade issue i saw http://www.ubergizmo.com/2011/02/ar-drone-updade-issue/

I used an iPod touch with the free flight 1.7.1 to upgrade and it install 1.5.1. Made a very noticeable improvement. I haven't tried flashing it since.

As for the camera, today i switched to the downward facing camera and it work fine but when changing back there was a black square in the upper left corner. I switch back a forth a couple more times and it went away, on firmware 1.5.1. Yesterday when i tried the downward cam it was with firmware 1.1.3.

Also using xoom wifi-only.
[Android Apps and Games] Synman:
I believe that had more to do with the bootloader they were using in freeflight with the initial 1.4.7 release. The repackaged version's actual firmware was no different than the prior release.
[Android Apps and Games] cobrahicks:
Disregard the comments i made about the downward camera not functioning properly, operator error...

Other then that the xoom w/ ad-hoc patch and arpro are running excellent.

V1.25 now up on the Market. Added dual stick controls, fixed a couple bugs, and introduced the AR.Pro Firmware Pack.
[Android Apps and Games] doublecheese:
Hi

After upgrading into the latest update of Ar.Pro , I think there is a malfunction.

First of all the height bar came into the middle of the screen

Secondly , the AR Drone , does't rotate Left and Right and doesn't fly up and down, basically the right round control button does not control the Ar Drone.

I tried it with 2 different phones

Htc Incredible S and Htc Desire HD

Just before the upgrade, both worked ok !

Did you change something on the controls ? Or am I making a mistake ?
[Android Apps and Games] Synman:
Non pro mode has changed slightly due to a redesign of the control surfaces to support dual stick mode. In non-pro mode the left control button must be activated (red) for any control surfaces to function. This is a subtle change from before where you still had yaw/elevator control without the left side safety being active. I may revisit this again depending upon feedback.

Additionally, the left side safety switch is now a toggle. You should be able to remove your finger from the button and the control surfaces will remain active until you touch it a second time.

Moving the altimeter to the center of the screen was necessary to accommodate the addition of the left hand side control sticks.

Hope this helps,

Shell
[Android Apps and Games] doublecheese:
Hi

Just tried it like you said and it works !!!!

However there is a problem with that , when the red button is staying alive/active even a slightest move on the phone cause unwanted left right front backwards movements.

I think the right control must work as it used to work and the red button must be active as far as you press on it.

I am quite OK when piloting the Ar Drone and I am really having difficulties control it like this especially when I try to pilot Ar Drone in indoor areas where I fly it under/over objects.

Some times you need to take a breath and let the Ar Drone hoover but since the red btton is staying alive even the slightest move activates the Ar Drone to move somewhere out of control.

Regarding the altimeter , being in the middle does not bother me much but there are other Android applications where you can control with dual sticks and altimeter still being on the left.

I strongly believe that almost nobody is using the dual sticks , many use the one stick method.

I would prefer previous version button control .

thanks
[Android Apps and Games] Synman:
Dual stick control has been the most commonly asked for feature request.

I'll see about adjustments in the areas you mention. Shouldn't be a problem.
[Android Apps and Games] doublecheese:
Since I don`t use the Dual Stick it shouldn`t be a problem for me.

Regarding the RED BUTTON press , this is really important, I just tried it again but it need work ...... Once I take my finger off the Red Button , it should automatically turn GREY rather than staying RED .

Apart from that it`s perfect

Is it possible to move the altimeter to the left side when using one stick operation ?

I have tried almost all Ar Drone applications in the market for Android, yours is cleary the best and it deserves every penny I paid.
[Android Apps and Games] Synman:
"Shouldnt be a problem" means it shouldnt be a problem for me to address your concerns... just needs a little TLC on my part.

AR.Pro 1.3 has been released on the Android Market. This update ushers in official Android support from Parrot with the addition of the 1.7.4 firmware (available in the AR.Pro Firmware Pack).

The big change in 1.7.4 is a WiFi mode switch that has the drone default to booting up in SoftAP mode, in essence turning it into a WAP/Hotspot.

EDIT

----

I am going to be testing each and every baseband this week using speedtests from the Mobile Speedtest app, and mobilespeedtest.com. with and w/o the 3g enhance buildprops. I will test these at 3 locations. My home, home work, and wherever I seem to be alot, to see how results change.

so far.

H, 2/5 bars

Location A Atlanta GA

.55a

D:3332 U:1194

.54i

D:2675 U:1259

.58

D:2708 U:1351

--

I am using AT&T, and live not to far from Atlanta.

Originally I bought my phone using only baseband .49, then eventually .52, then stayed on .54 for quite a while. They all seemed to be quite the same, I don't recall when it was x10a or i, but one of them was an x10i baseband, and I always had great service. Even when I was in 2GAtlanta.

For the past week and a half I have had strange issues. Such as being able to call anyone except family members on the same plan, and them not being able to call me. I blame ATT for this. Then J's CM& crashed on me with bb .54, so I spent a day trying to try a new rom and basebands, and the whole day I got bars or no bars. No E, 3G, or H. I am very use to seeing an H, never 3g, and only E when I power control it off.

I reflashed .54a, and went back to wolf's rom, and had problems finding ATT and 3g H service. Eventually I learned to crash sys server, and that night after rexrecoery installing Wolfs rom step by step, i finally got a E, and later that night a few H's, but mostly E's in places I remember getting H speed at. I sat around unable to download apps or browse in the web at the speeds I normally would in those spots.

So i flashed .58, and everything seemed to barely change. More H, but never in my neighborhood, but I read bad reviews, so i wanted to try .55a. So I am on 55A, and now doing speedtests, that are either really high or really low, and I would be sitting in the same spot.

So here are the differences

X10I

GSM850, GSM900, GSM1800, GSM1900, UMTS900, UMTS1700, UMTS2100 HSDPA 7.2 Mbit

X10A

GSM850, GSM900, GSM1800, GSM1900, UMTS800, UMTS850, UMTS1900, UMTS2100

HSDPA 10.2 Mbit

According to my research. Most towers and broadcasters in the U.S. and ATT rely on x10a. I've seen people ask if 3g will work on x10i bb on ATT. As far as i know E and H, do, i'm sure ive seen a 3g pop up.

So I want to collect some answers and information.

1. Should I stay with a x10a baseband as a ATT user in the U.S. If so, what is the preffered baseband to use at the moment

2. What are other ATT users using, and what kind of speed are you getting.

3. Is there a better build.prop setting than what is in the enhanced 3g thread?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XERO_Racer:
1. from what your post says, its recommended but sometimes BB from the X10i works better, it just depends on the ROM and what BB you flash, like me i run .54i and it seems fine but....

2. currently running .54i on Wolfs CM ROM 4.5.7 and i've had some stability issues with internet while tethering on 3G, but i get full bars 100% of the time, i get about 3-4mbps of download speed and upload is 1.5mbps on speedtest

i recently dropped .58i because it shot my battery down like nothing but i had similar download results to .54i but i had no issues, it was stable 100% when i tether

3. as far as i know, no

and to help with your 3G issue, H is basically 3G but faster, if not its probably a replaced icon for 3G, been knowing this since Windows Mobile days
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Windst:
I assumed as Much about H. Seemed to be an international code not seen on stock US phones. Ill try .54i. ty
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XERO_Racer:
just keep in mind, .54i you might experience some internet issues unless thats me(due to the heavy rain the day before) if that doesnt work for you i suggest going to .55a or .54a, let me know because im planning on flashing a differen BB sometime tonight, preferably .55a
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Windst:
im on .55a, er was. just flashed .54i, seems to be a little fast. nothign too noticable. what are ways to test this besides speedtest.net?

i might go ahead and flash each one and see which gives me the better stats
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XERO_Racer:
you can try http://mobilespeedtest.com on your browser

and i recommend spending at least a full day or two on each baseband to see how it goes for you

and i just flashed .55a and its now stable for tethering and internet performance seems to be a bit better but it might be a placebo effect,and i dont know about battery though, ill report back tomorrow or the day after
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Windst:
I guess i'll report all the information from here to

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=976872

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XERO_Racer:
fair enough

will be doing test on my own as well

i looked at the thread you provided and it seems .54a seems to be the best, but thats from his test, and also location varies as well, so results might be different for you, compare to his and also some mentioned that Wolfs CM ROM could have 3g problems as well

although i will flash to .54a and test all day tomorrow and next day and back to .55a
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Windst:
.55 seems to be doing a lot better now, got a DL rate of 4000 outside.

I'm not to sure if Wolfs rom has a confirmed 3g problem, it does have a problem connecting/and finding network operator services. I hope he says something about it, because it was working fine on 4.3

Oh well. I just figured if i repeat the same routine and run tests in the same spots at the right time, day weather, and everything thing else exactly the same, results will start to make sense? I think I confused myself:confused:

First, back everything up with the "Backup Rom" option in Rom manager (also called a nandroid backup). Download the Rom (.zip) you want and put on root of your SD card as a zip file, Reboot into recovery with Rom manager. Data wipe, cache wipe, and choose install zip from SD. Reboot you phone. And that's it your new Rom should be up and running. First boot up usually takes a few minutes as it is building ur cache. If there are any problems try searching the forum b/c it has probably already been addressed.

Usually the steps are listed in the Op of a forum on how to install a specific Rom but the steps are pretty much the same.

Virtuous is a good Rom, its Android 2.2 with Sense 2.0. But u should give VillainRoms SenseGinger a try, it is Android 2.3 with Sense 2.1. The latest is pretty stable and fast, and it keeps getting updated.

I do have what might be a silly question on this topic, however it has been bothering me and I don't dare try it. I change my rom A LOT because I like to play around and try out the new stuff but I usually end up going back to CM7. at the moment I have a backup of each ROM I've tried so far in case I want to go back to play with it or update it if it gets updates. Whenever I change roms I do a factory restet and a cache wipe. is that necissary? or can you just install zip over whatever is there like you do with CM nightly updates?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eioous:
You can but it is often recommended to wipe because of lingering data that might not match up with your current rom. sometimes it could be just fine and sometimes cause problems. so it really just depends on what roms your using. Personally i just wipe data and cache when jumping between roms unless its just a patch or update.
