[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Realorasz:
Ok I am no dev, but I've had a teensie bit of experience actually coding in LUA, long time back, for World of Warcraft. But it was a long time ago, and i never got anywhere because the books i had sadly became outdated right as i was beginning to make sense of it all.

BUT what that makes me think- if the kernels can be edited my text editor, then I had an idea that may or may not enable everyone to have a fully functioning kernel withmore fps. What I'm saying it, don't remove it, just up it. I though that capping it at maybe 50(or 54, that's the max that I saw fps2d getting).

In this i mean taking the se kernel and giving it this treatment. BEcause it seems the se kernel is working for all roms atm.

Am i completely stupid, or does this sound like it'll work?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrHassell:
The kernel is Linux cross compiled for ARM (processor) and can not be edited in a text editor.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Realorasz:
What I meant was coding. Typing stuff on a keyboard. The code could me modified not to take out everything that limits the framrate, but just modified to limit it to a higher fps limit. Its the main idea in the OP.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anantshri:
Your idea is good however we have few technical limitation.

1) Kernel as already specified is a complied binary so all we can see is Hex codes.

2) finding correct place where such limitation is placed would take a lot larger time then debugging and creating a custom kernel.

some advantages of bearing the pain of custom kernel include.

1) having absolute control over your hardware.

2) speed up the device, undervolt, overclock and so.

so basically that's why mod's are all after modified kernel.

besides SE kernel is way old now we do need new kernel version also....

hope that clears some doubt of yours..
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Realorasz:
Thanks for enlightening me. Though, not sure if it helps, but I know of a few hex editors that translate it into text at the right. Don't know how much if the hexes in kernels will be letters though.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Realorasz:
Just noticed something. It seems that simply raising the cap to under 60 would be better, once the kernels here get stable(you know, ehen the devs can actually try this), as im seeing a bit of tearing. The screen on the x10 is @ 60 Hz, so that's where 60 came from.

[Desire HD General] liferider:
Hey guys, just a quick question to see if anyone else is experience the home screen reload that is infamous with Sense on older phones like G1/Magic etc.

I've had the magic since it came out and upgraded to DHD, but have recently been having the same issues, where the home screen reloads, get the big HTC white with green.

Any certain apps to help with this? or perhaps that are causing this?

Appreciate your response
[Desire HD General] cashisback:
Hmm yes I get this too sometimes. But it only ever happens when I'm either listening to music for hours or have changed some setting in the phone, I don't think there is a fix to be honest but I could be wrong. Maybe gingerbread will fix this ?
[Desire HD General] CodeNameUnknown1:
This happens to me too, but it only happens when i 'mistreat' my phone. i.e. when i open an app,and be4 its finished opening i press the home button ... or something like that

i think this htc screen comes because maybe an error occurred with the sense UI or something and thats their way of handling the error.

i personally dont think its a problem, rather a solution to a problem, so dont be scared.

fyi: no one told me this, it just makes sense to me, since it only happens when i mistreat my phone....maybe they made a different way to handle this with their new Sense UI: 3.0.

im so hyper about it!!, and im hoping that it'll come with the new update!!!! :)
[Desire HD General] karthics4:
It happens to me as well but my home screen reloads when I kills some apps
[Desire HD General] Andy:
Quick question, do you all have "Spare Parts" installed?
[Desire HD General] CodeNameUnknown1:
spare parts?
[Desire HD General] Andy:
Yes, spare parts. If Activity/Process Management is set to aggresive it will produce the same issue your post is describing.
[Desire HD General] Andy:
I remembered a similar issue a while ago, read through THIS thread (11 posts) and let me know if the screenshot looks similar.
[Desire HD General] SupremeBeaver:
Those with this problem, try uninstall the Flash 10.2 update, reboot your phone and see if its solved.
[Desire HD General] ABorgh:
Not enough RAM can lead to reboot of sense UI?
[Desire HD General] Andy:
No, the DHD has plenty of RAM. Its a badly configured task killer.
[Desire HD General] Hakimy:
it happens to me sometimes though I haven't chose anything in spare parts (it shows empty normal and aggressive check box) and I don't have any task killer (well I have a program called ZDbox which has the ability to kill apps you select) and when it happens it doesn't stop unless you restart your phone.I think a certain app is causing this but I don't know which ;)
[Desire HD General] SupremeBeaver:
A few weeks ago i had this problem with Flash 10.2. There was a memory leak and as a result android was killing all apps and even killed Sense as a result of Flash taking up more and more ram. So Flash 10.2 might be the culprit here. Check to see which version you have and uninstall the update.
[Desire HD General] Hakimy:
so when you went back to 10.1,the issue was gone?
[Desire HD General] SupremeBeaver:
You would be correct sir/mam.

[Atrix 4G General] HungryEel:
My Atrix has been super solid. It does not have any issues that I have been reading. (misaligned lock button, wifi not connecting on a unlocked phone, random shutdowns etc)

I only have 1 problem.

The stock text message client will put the wrong time stamp

on the messages received.

EX) i sent a message at 6:03, it says i sent it at 6:03, then i get a reply 1 minute later and it says i received it @2:04

I live in eastern time zone (which works out to +4 with daytime)

I downloaded and use Handcent SMS now which works good and puts the correct time tag. However, I was wondering if anyone knew how to fix this?

I tried automatic time by carrier, and also manually setting time to +4, but they both produce the same result....

Also, does your earpiece crackle on volumes greater than 50%?

I have to turn it down to below 50% which is still loud and fine for me to hear, but I was surprised that it cant even go over 50% volume without crackling
[Atrix 4G General] G-Man.:
I like GO SMS Pro better than handcent personally - im not sure about the timestamp issue....
[Atrix 4G General] y2whisper:
Known issue, its they way fido and rogers handle that timestamp. bell does it on the network while rogers/fido have the phone do it. since our device isn't from rogers, the stock app doesn't know to do that. You can go with handcent or search for sms timestamp fix in the market. for more on this issue you can search around in this forum.

I don't have the earpiece crackle problem though.
[Atrix 4G General] blunted09:
download an app called "SMS fixtimes" in the market. does the job
[Atrix 4G General] HungryEel:
nice! I was thinking it had something to do with rogers/fido

too bad the crackle problem is only with my handset

[General Questions and Answers] Paul22000:
I'm looking for an app that you give it an RSS feed (ie http://www.npr.org/rss/podcast.php?id=500005 ) and it would download the latest mp3 to a specified folder. Does an app like this exist?

I don't want a full podcast app because I want to use MortPlayer to play the audio files, not an all-in-one downloader/player app. I tried CarCast but I find not being able to change the seek time extremely frustrating. With MortPlayer, I can do that, as well as use the buttons on my bluetooth headset, etc, and a lot of other features.

Anyway, does such an app exist? A simple RSS mp3 downloader?

(A shell script that I can run via GScript would be fine as well.)
[General Questions and Answers] elupus:
Google listen? Let it download for you, then play from the cache folder.
[General Questions and Answers] Paul22000:
I think you missed the second paragraph above?
[General Questions and Answers] Paul22000:
To clarify, I used Listen for months but I can't stand that it puts the feeds in my Google Reader. I only get podcasts from a few RSS feeds for my morning drive to work, and the feeds keep updating all day, every day, even on weekends. So to have the feeds cluttering up my Google Reader, which I use very frequently, was extremely annoying. I don't need to have the feeds updating constantly since I only use them once per day, especially the NPR Hourly Summary, which happens 168 times per week. That's why I switched to CarCast, so the feeds are out of my Google Reader.

I'm basically looking for an app (or a shell script), where I can click a single button and it would download the latest mp3 to /sdcard/downloads.

Is there anything out there that will achieve this simple purpose?

Then I can use MortPlayer to play them, which comes with a whole ton of other features that no other podcast app can provide, such as having a widget on my lockscreen, etc.

[HTC Inspire 4G] kirk123:
Oy talk about needing a translator... Anyways...

Unless you root your phone and install a custom ROM, you wont be able to use HTC sync to install apps on your phone.

You need to use this method: http://forum.androidcentral.com/and...-central-sideload-wonder-machine-v-1-2-a.html

[General Questions and Answers] peich1:
Hello,

I got a problem with my X10 Mini Pro. I've just bought a MagicSIM adaptor, so I can use two SIM cards, and it works OK except for a little problem: each time I switch between SIM cards, the phone asks me the password for Google sign-in. Is there a way to disable this, some app/hack or maybe automatizing the password input? I have searched the forums and I've found some ROMs that can bypass it, but they are of no use to me. Thanks a lot.

[myTouch 4G General] lowandbehold:
It seems lately there has been alot of negativity towards people asking questions. There have been far too many replies to questions with people complaining about the question, and the complaint takes longer to post than the answer. If you don't want to answer someones question, don't open the thread!! This is supposed to be a friendly, helpful community. There will always be different levels of experience. There is not 1 person on this forum that has never experienced the panic factor when they thought they messed up their phone. Let's keep that in mind when someone asks a question without doing an extensive search first.

PS- You are not the phone police, who are you to say what someone should and shouldn't do with their phone?
[myTouch 4G General] camalus:
Because at least 50% of posts asking for help have been answered multiple times... in multiple threads... by multiple people.

It gets annoying answering questions for people who really shouldn't be rooting phones to begin with... or who don't take time to do any research. Instead of taking the time to learn and read.

There was an excellent article the other day on android central... about rooting not always being the answer. I think alot of people should read it.

http://m.androidcentral.com/sometimes-root-isn’t-answer

You don't need to root to enjoy android. And not everyone is. But alot of people have no idea what they are getting into... then come here and expect it to be fixed because they didn't research.

Xda is a very helpful community... but everyone gets a little tired sometimes of answering the same questions.

[myTouch 4G General] Nicgraner:
Well yes that's true and all but the OP has a point when he said everyone has that panic attack and doesnt bother looking before posting I mean seriously when you think your really screwed over and may have just wasted $400 I know now I'd probably look first but when I first started out with my good ol G1 I flipped **** man! Its still bricked, sitting in a shelf somewhere. But I became more experienced as I moved from MT3G to MT4G so yea noobs to forums will always be an issue here I mean really in what forum aren't they? But its better to be supportive than criticize the new Guy with a broken phone by saying 'go look in this thread or this or this or this' I mean it just makes em feel bad. This is hypocritical since I know I have a few posts criticizing noons on here for posting but whatever it happens.
[myTouch 4G General] sunsean:
I agree with people generally needing to read up on as much as they can, especially when they're starting with android and/or rooting, but I will say there's something nice about having a chat about your particular situation. Reading an old thread often has useful information, but I could definitely see how a poster might need/want more specific, personalized advice that meets whatever issue they're having head-on. And often, I know I've been researching a particular issue, will find old threads on it, but still need additional clarification.

Obviously, people should be able to help themselves as much as possible - but in the end, that's why this is a forum, and not a tech blog, so that people CAN have discourse about common areas of interest and, hopefully, help one another out.
[myTouch 4G General] neidlinger:
Okay i wasn't going to say a damn thing till i saw this line.

You are 100% correct we are not officially the Android Police or Phone Police. However neither are you. WE are not telling people what to do with their devices. We are simply throwing up road blocks. As if to say....

and you you keep on going and ignore the blatant warnings and crash and burn you shouldn't come here crying that you jacked something. On the same note we did not force you to do anything to your phone. No one from XDA held a Glock 19 and uttered the words " ROOT YOUR MUTHA EFFING PHONE OR WE KILL YOU".... you chose to do it willingly. And you should be man enough to say well i screwed my phone and i need to fix it.

9/10 people here will answer the question at hand. regardless of its "how do i root my phone", "how do i flash an image" or what ever else have you. but it someone has a low post count we will absolutely throw warnings out there. Android devices are mini Linux Computers. Now i do not claim to be a *UNIX guru, nor do i claim to be an Android guru, but i've seen enough people to brick their phones do routine things to know better......

I joined XDA because i was tired of the drama on Android Central and Cracberry's Android section. I wanted to find a good group of guys with similar interest, with similar phones and the exact same motto.

and i found XDA, i lurked for a while and thought this a good place to be....

just because you see "negative comments" doesn't mean we don't have the best intent in our hearts. We just understand what can come with things are done incorrectly.

And to finish up to answer your question "where is the love", sometimes the best love one can show is tough love, it might not appear to be there now, but down the road.... well hind sight is always 20/20.
[myTouch 4G General] darinmc:
I've struggled conceptually countless times on these forums and people have been gracious enough to help me out, but the couple of times I thought I might have actually messed up my phone the first thought that entered my head wasn't "OH SH!T, let me write an incoherent post in the first forum i see and wait for my savior," it was "you idiot, you read about this possibility and now you have a worthless piece of electronics, maybe next time you won't be so stupid." I then researched my issue and, luckily, found a solution. You can learn how to do ANYTHING on the internet these days, that's the beauty of global communication. I just think most people get frustrated when someone asks another to take time out of their day to assist them when it is clear by their post that they didn't even take the time to help themselves, you know?

No one here has a problem with helping someone out; that is clear by sheer number of question posts that get answered daily- especially when people follow the forum guidelines and at least attempt to present their issue with as much detail as possible. It's the "SOMEONE HELP ME CLOCKWORK BROKE MY PHONE" posted in the development section that cause more trouble than anything.
[myTouch 4G General] borodin1:
Just like there were many threads complaining about people not answering questions or being hostile to newbs.

Here's the very basic explanation on how to not make an ass out of yourself and save us all from answering the same thing over and over again:

1. Read BEFORE you do something

2. Read and UNDERSTAND what you're about to do, again, BEFORE you do it.

3. If anything goes wrong - take a step back to think what you did, have a smoke/drink/whatever you do and relax. Search for an answer on similar situation, bet you money it has been answered before. If all fails, write up well-organized, informative post with all info (what you had, what you did and what happened) and be patient. 5 threads within 2 hrs will not get you any farther.

Good luck to all.
[myTouch 4G General] CB620:
People dont mind helping or answering questions its just that no one honestly reads before posting. 9 out of 10 questions have answers within the forum.
[myTouch 4G General] cappyone:
Charle is 100% percent correct in his statement. In all honesty all the information for rooting, flashing recovery, custom roms are in the development section under the rom bible in the development section. The hard part has already been done for us.
[myTouch 4G General] lowandbehold:
I 100% agree that you should read ALOT before deciding to root. I read everything and watched videos for over a week before deciding to root.

The main point I was trying to make is that if you are sick of answering the same question, don't answer it. Just don't type anything. Hit the back button. There is no need for the rude remarks.

And Neidlinger I don't understand your post whatsoever. I don't understand it because you are one of the most knowledgable and helpful people on this forum. I don't know how many times you had to answer questions regarding bootloops with the wrong recovery, and every single time, you just answered the question. I honestly feel that more replies in the Q&A section should be just like yours.
[myTouch 4G General] neidlinger:
I apologize, i'm at work and and got heated about something here and really shouldn't of posted that....and when i saw "where is the love", knowing how much i try to help people out around here... it just really bothered me....

you line made it sound like, if we have some one that pops and their very first post is "how do i root my phone" we should bow down and help them. With out throwing any warnings out. just here is how to do it and explain step by step how to.

First of all i will throw out warnings, i will never ward anyone away from doing what they want to do with their device. After all it's their money they are gambling with.

secondly when i bought my first android (mytouch3G) phone i bought with a stock recovery image and a working bootloader and i had to figure everything else from there. I had to learn quickly, if i wanted my phone up and running. So thanks for the props on being knowledgeable, but it was something i pretty much had to do. And people read on BGR, Android Central, or what ever popular bog site about XDA members did this and XDA members did that they jump on here and expect us to hold their hand. People have very well laid out threads on how do do certain things. The reason i treat others the way i do when it comes to problem solving is pretty simple. I had someone do the same for me. A higher up for T-Mobile that took the time and showed me how to do what i needed done. And that kinda what my idea of the Android community is. People helping people, for the fun and enjoyment of it.

with that being said....

With True_blue, Option94, faux123 not to mention another 1/2 dozen good developers and highly knowledgeable people that put things out in black and white, easy to understand English their should be no reason why so many of the same exact threads show up. You can type in just about any Android problem or request in Google and it'll lead you to XDA, and the thread in question. Just like the thread with the guy that just posted " how do i get 2.3, the nexus s variant on my phone"... step one should of been research in stead of starting a new thread....It's the laziness that bothers me. Like with programs like Super Manager and Root Explorer, people are to lazy to learn the ADB commands.... Clockwork ROM manager, people are to lazy to flash a recovery image. Or flashing a ROM go south... did you check the MD5sum? "nope, whats that"... it's just pure laziness that bothers me...
[myTouch 4G General] lowandbehold:
I understand 100% where you guys are coming from. I completely agree that things should be searched for first. I just think that the #1 priority should be helping the person out first, and then correcting. I just want it to be known that this is in no way at all coming from an experience that I had...I think my anger really started with that epidemic of E:/can't mount bs where everyone was like "hey idiot you can get into recovery, you aren't bricked." And now we know now that is not the case.
