In what apps does this happen? How noticeable is this swimming and tearing?

The browser? Tapatalk?

I don't see anything weird...
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] fuggii:
For me swimming i more noticable in xda app web browser youtube movie list and sometimes video is not load only sound rest it like before
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] clmta:
Hi,

if someone applied via OR the overclock or governor, can copy and edit one of the files and put the commands in it.

I used Root Explorer, go to /system/etc/init.d and copy 10overclock to my sdcard

In the sdcard, I renamed it as 00disableDSIerrors and edit contents.

After this changes, copied the file to /system/etc/init.d mounting it RW, and changed permitions like 10overclock.

I did this because using 00 (2 zeros) at initial of the name are executed first.

Also if you applied the overclock or other hack with OR ir renames mot_boot_mode as mot_boot_mode1 and places a shell script named mot_boot_mode that first starts the binary file mot_boot_mode1 and after runs the shell scripts in /system/etc/init.d

After this change (reboot) I filtered the log and no DSI errors.

I like to comment that after installing APAC leak (that works excelent) I always had 1 reboot per day (DSI panic). Also using arabic kernel.

So I flash the last SBF that i found (SHOLS_U2_05.26.0_SIGNED_UCASHLSMR2EMEAB1B806E.0R_PDS003_USAMS1FRYOO2DE_P010_A008_HWp2a_WIG145012_Service1FF) and I have no more panics, but I have several frozen displays and DSI errors.

I do not found any changes but something works different. Now I applied this changes and no DSI errors, now I am using also last kernel (from 05 Mar)

Regards,

Claudio.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Splog:
can someone please explain to me what "swimming" means? i've just applied the fix and i don't see any noticeable issues with xda app, browser or youtube (apps mentioned by others).

p.s.- using got's 2.2.1 + the latest CM7.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] zeppelinrox:
I just noticed it.

It wasn't very obvious to me at all.

Say you're scrolling up. The side of the screen that you're swiping will move

slightly

ahead of the other side of the screen like it had a nanosecond head start.

It's not like I'm reading the text when it's scrolling so it's not a big deal to me at all.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] pac213:
I did this and my Milestone didn't boot. I'm doing sileshn method for now and I'm not having errors.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] :
The "Swimming" becomes drastic if you have fancy animations, like on FroyoMOD.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Splog:
Ahhh, like page tearing? Not noticed any yet.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] zeppelinrox:
Oh okay...

I don't don't have fancy animations at the moment I had just installed the latest CM612

(yeah, I'm slow... lol)

I was going to do a nandroid tonite and give froyomod a whirl.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] pac213:
Update: SO far so good. No reboots or hangups doing the same things that causing reboots or hangups before applying this fix.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] IFLPI:
For me the most visible is the fps drop in scrolling home and drawer (horizontal) in adw ex. Which was super fluid before.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] pac213:
Hmm, maybe it's a side effect of this fix? I dunno, on my GO Launcher, I have no problems on scrolling or the "swimming effect." All fluid on my phone.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] zeppelinrox:
The tearing didn't really bother me but I think it was happening because things were getting "bottle necked" or something... some lag here and there...

Anybody run smartbench to see if it had an effect on performance at all?

Mine went down quite a bit.

Since I wasnt getting reboots before, I removed the fix
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] latino147:
Do the commits from Nadlabak automatically imply the new settings will be incorporated in a new RC?

Q2: after a full wipe this settings will be resetted I imagine?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] juandpineiro:
I applied the fix yesterday and I've hadn't any reboot or freeze since then (which where pretty common in my case). Usiing CM6.1.2 pre-final.

Tearing is almost not noticeable, maybe when doing some fast scrolling in app drawer (ADW EX), and also in the browser in some pages with heavy graphics (BTW Opera Mobile 11 is awesome, but lacks user agent feature)
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Splog:
FYI-

applied fix to CM7, default settings on top of GOT's 2.2.1.

Now had uptime of 16.5h. no reboots or freezes (i'd get these at least once or twice a day before). i've noticed ever so slight page tearing (or "swimming"), but i really need to look for it. it's certainly not an issue that detracts from the usability.

consider me a happy customer. :) thanks to everyone that's worked on this.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] pac213:
Now I can migrate to CM7. :D
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] yjwong:
I applied the fix. But it made scrolling in LauncherPro visibly laggy. Page tearing is obvious in apps like Glow Hockey.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] joker2mbr:
I also applied the fix on the latest CM7 build. I can confirm that I don't get any DSI errors anymore! However, page tearing is really visible, mainly scrolling applications on ADW Launcher EX app drawer.

But I guess this small problem is a lot better than get DSI errors (display freezes and reboots)... :)
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] -SAIUN-:
I think I've applied this fix but can't tell if I've done it right. I'm not getting any tearing or slow scrolling, so I think I may have done something wrong (no DSI errors yet but it's only been a few minutes).

Is there a way to check if the correct changes have been applied?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Splog:
CM7? fire up terminal and type:

cat /sys/devices/omapdss/display0/update_mode

if it says 1, then it's active.

cm6 or stock? i'm afraid i don't know.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] pac213:
I think it varies on phone? Even if it is a milestone, it depends on the build quality or something? It's like overclocking, it varies on phones.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] cooldudeansari:
does anybody know any gingerbread theme for the official 2.2 rom?i would really love to change the notification bar to black and other stuff..

[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Splog:
33 hours, still no restarts or freezes. :)
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] latino147:
thats really good man. Do you use Maps?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] pac213:
Mee too! :D
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Splog:
Only used it once since the fix (and just a basic search, no GPS). Didn't notice any new issues with it, no page tearing etc.

although with CM7 (before the fix, and presumably still) i have noticed Maps sometimes gets killed (presumably by out of memory killer) when it's the active app. which is a little annoying.

I have upgraded CM7 twice without doing a full data reset though, so it's possible that's related. I'll clean it out properly for kabaldan's next release.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] ColdSphinX:
There is a new Kernel SHOLS_U2_05.27.5 from Africa with "Rare display serial interface errors" (sbf:milestone 2.2.1).

EDIT:

Seems to be the same as the Arabia Kernel that is used in latest CM7
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] drmedarius:
Not exactly the same..

CM7 (Arabia?) is

$ cat /proc/version

while African is

[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] pac213:
The only difference I see is the time?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] drmedarius:
yes, timestamp doesnt match. im using this since 5 hours, and i didnt see any dsi in dmesg until now.

EDIT: i double checked dmesg, and yes African has dsi errors too.. :(
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] clmta:
I also had a DSI panic. So I applied DSI patch.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Subbie171:
I installed the patch and noticed the desync but today scrolling is really slow and the desync frames are gone. Anyone experience the same?

[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] n3n00:
Im rooted, on cm7 and I want to apply this fix. But in Terminal, after I type mount -o rw, remount /system, it says Permission denied (are you root?)... what should I do?

Wait... I can do this with Root Explorer or? I've found the file, but where to put #... commands?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] amossam:
I just aplied this workaround, and....

I see "tearing" but I don't care for it! I just want to get rid of kernel panic! :) Will report if get any reboot!

P.S. did anyone tried fps2d with this fix?? I now get 81 average fps!!! And original is around 61,62! :D this probably removes some additional graphic (post)processing, but i dont care!!! :D

Thx for this hint to OP and BIG thx to anyone who figured out this!!!

[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] vishalmullur:
I don't know what these dsi errors are but I am running official froyo on my milestone for 4 days and have no problem at all-no random reboots, no homescreen lag and nothing at all.

Also I'm using auto memory manager and values are 6,10,24,40,50,60.

Can someone please explain how to do this? Don't really understand
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] n3n00:
Me neither, Im totally lost in these commands, idk what I need to write, and where. Using CM7, can anyone explain step by step, what to write in Terminal Emulator? Please :)

[Nook Color General] Nitro_123:
What should i buy, an iTouch 4G or a nook colour?

I like modifying, rooting, hacking, the works and also gaming

The nook colour has a lot of potential but the iTouch wins in gaming, which i really like

Please help me decide and thanks in advance!!
[Nook Color General] supersoulfly:
The biggest difference is the size. Nook is more functional for reading, surfing, videos, and such. The ipod is nice because it's pocket sized. Ideal for having music and other entertainment on the go. The quality of games is much better on the ipod too. If you are soley looking for good games go with the ipod.

I suggest you think about how and where you will be using it. I loved my old ipod, but I would choose the Nook personally. I've gotten much more use out of it. But that's just me and my lifestyle.
[Nook Color General] Nitro_123:
Thanks a lot

For me size doesn't matter, but i want to know, does the NC lag when it runs or is it super-smooth like the iTouch?

Thanks again:confused:
[Nook Color General] supersoulfly:
It runs fine. Overclocking it makes it pretty responsive. But I would not say it is super smooth like the ipod touch. The difference is noticeable in my opinion. I personally have not experienced an Android device that ran as smooth as an ipod touch or iphone.

If size does not matter to you, I would recommend the ipod touch. The software and performance are great.
[Nook Color General] Nitro_123:
Thanks

i think i will go with the iTouch

:cool:

Could you be more specific? Like is yours not working on a particular Rom or what?

Hi all, I'm experiencing a problem with my SFR 2.2 Legend since the update a few months ago (it seems). GPS worked fine before, and now it just wont lock onto any satellites.

Any ideas on what could be going on? I have tried outside of course, on cloudy days as well as with clear skies.

Not sure why but this seems to be a common issue. One thing people have had luck with is resetting A-GPS data using the GPS Status app. Maybe try that?

[Desire General] huckinnz:
Hi, sorry in advance if I missed solution somewhere but I have tried searching for answers. Either nothing works or problem is slightly different to other reports.

My problem is that following upgrade to CM7 RC, I believe the wrong Google Apps was installed. In a nutshell, now my phone wont boot into Android. I tried booting into recovery, I get to the first screen, and select recovery, phone vibrates and then I get the HTC logo come up and at that point phone freezes with no response until I remove battery.

I have followed various guides re unbricking but to no avail. Issue seems to be that ADB cant identify my phone or no drivers are present to allow me to unbrick. I am running Windows 7 64bit and understand this could be an issue. Please point me to the latest guide in unbricking as there is heaps out there but some very old.

Thanks P
[Desire General] Meaple:
You could try an ruu then root again. Yes it is a pain but might be a faster fix than actually finding a thread. If you can't then look through the Android Development thread. There are a few guides in there somewhere and also look in the Desire Index thread as well

I am from India and purchased wildfire two month ago.

I hadnt search for forum and by mistake upgraded to 2.2.1 froyo.

and as I know its not give facility to install custom rom.

I have S-ON...

the procesor is too slow of wf.

So clockword mode recovery I needed.

my question is simple that if I want to overclock ma phone , what should I do.

Because of I have lack knowledge of such things If anyone tell me step by step procedure. I will thankful to u....

If anyone knows the same topic link so tell me and close this thread.......

waiting for ur reply guys...
[Wildfire General] 3xeno:
1: Find someone with an XTC Clip Hardware Box

2: Get your Wildfire S-OFF after paying him his fees (Or free if hes your 'contact')

3: Follow this guide : http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=12188132&postcount=15

If you can't find an XTC Clip, you will not be able to Overclock your Wildfire, because, as is the case with Custom ROMs, overclocking requires root (Or atleast, a kernel which supports overclocking, but, getting a new kernel again requires root)
[Wildfire General] rlpl4527:

another question is that what we can do with S-ON.....

like can I root with s-on ......

another question is that what can I additional do without rooting........

You cannot root official Froyo 2.2.1, if you have S-ON. Nothing further really to add there, Sorry. And, as I said before, as far as I know, overclocking without rooting is not possible.

Opera's famous mobile browser is back, version 11 is available now and it's just awesome! Rediculously fast rendering engine and now support for flash plugin!

Best browser for Android by far!

[Android Apps and Games] rstdnm:
Thanks. Hey, which is better? Opera or Dolphin?
[Android Apps and Games] more2come:
In my opinion Opera 11 is way better than dolphin. Give Opera 11 a test ride and see for yourself, it's unbelievably fast und scrolls very, very smooth, even on pages with massive content!
[Android Apps and Games] hoo2hoo:
what about miren browser?
[Android Apps and Games] more2come:
I used Miren before, quite good! The advantage Opera offers is a unique rendering engine. Dolphin and Miren use the rendering engine of the stock browser with a few tweaks, Opera relies on a homemade engine and really shines with that.

I've never seen a mobile browser being so fast, this release is a real milestone!
[Android Apps and Games] BanziBaby:
Does this version have the hardware acceleration we were promised?

I notice this version doesn't have the instant back feature, it seems to reload the previous page.

I still say the fastest & best browser for android is Xscope Pro 6, fast, light & instant back.

Cheers,

Banzi.

[Android Apps and Games] khaytsus:
Oh, so Miren uses the stock browser, so THAT'S why it renders Google Mail/Reader etc correctly... Nothing else does ;)

On topic.... Yep, the new version is pretty cool, I use 11 on my tablet and Mini on my phone, although I most often use the stock browser on my phone as it's damn good and renders most stuff better.

Only annoyance is they've made all of the windows hover over the open page, and on my tablet they're only about half the screen size, so wasting space when in the menus.

I heard that tap-to-zoom was gone in Mini, only pinch zoom. Hopefully they fix that, as when I do use Opera Mini I prefer to tap as it's faster and more accurate and doesn't require two fingers ;)
[Android Apps and Games] more2come:
Miren is built on top of the stock browser's engine with a few enhancements and tweaks, as I mentioned. Same choppy scrolling, awful pinch-to-zoom speed, especially on pages with lots of script content.

Opera 11 runs on my Desire HD like a mobile browser should. Fast, efficient, smooth!
