I have the Bali kernal that states that it has all these voodoo enabled things. How does voodoo color work? Is there like a button i press or something?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoffcorey:
using voodoo color on samsung roms, there is no control over it. it just fixes the brightness levels, and color temperature of your screen to a more "natural" level.

As for voodoo sound, get the voodoo sound app from the market and you'll be experiencing voodoo sound on your phone.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jneal9:
And if I'm not mistaken, it's not even enabled on every brightness level.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevho00:

i dont see any change on my t959 screen, i try a lot of kernels and still some blue tint on my screen.

note: i turn off the automatic brightness and still blue tint :(

sorry for my bad english :o

is anyone in the 4g areas getting insane dowload speeds? I just ran ten tests at least and all were above 10mbps, the highest being 13.xxmbps. or is it mps? the weird thing is thst they all spiked in the beginning to rediculous numbers well over 100. then leveled out. does anyone know if tmonile has increased hspa+ yet?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] nodrogkam:
1 week ago a handfull of cities were upgraded to support 42mbps down.

if you live in one of those cities you should see at least a 2x increase in your average download speeds.

[Off-topic] Pacifik:
I'm hoping some other techies can sway me. Looking to but a new laptop for autocad, maybe a little gaming and linux-y stuff too.

I was looking at either a Dell 17 XPS or an ASUS G73. Both are similar in specs and price(around the 1200 mark), the XPS has a better gfx card in it(nvidia 550 vs 450), both i7@2 GHtz. Both come with a free xbox attached. The dell can be sent to my sister who doesn't pay sales tax 0% v. 10%. I'm really leaning towards the dell for some of the added features(see sales tax), but never owned a laptop or a prebuilt computer. Only my now antiquated desktop, which would need mostly new parts to be upgraded(it turns six in a couple months).

Thanks in advance:D

Here's to hoping that I dont get ripped on for posting LOL

I read about things that can and cant be done to the 2.3 ROMS because of there not being a source code. I dont know anything about that and I dont pretend to so I'm just wondering if what I'm reading here is what's needed to develop these further, such as kernels, etc??? http://source.android.com/

It says the 2.3 Source code is released but I have no clue what so ever if it's what's used or not.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hostet:
Hi,

I'm wondering if I set an alarm at 730am and off the phone. Will the phone on itself back and sound the alarm at 730am?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrdo:
not as far as i'm aware. with android, off is off. the phone will not turn itself back on automatically under any circumstances when it is off.

if you wish to replicate this behaviour you need to put the phone into flight mode but leave the phone switched on for the alarms to sound.

you can use a 3rd party app to switch on flight mode at a pre-defined time if you wish or do it manually.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mr.orange303:
http://mobilarena.hu/teszt/ketmagosok_egymas_ellen/bevezeto.html

In the sites vids you'll notice a consistant.

The gs2 wins over.

Other than that the 2x clearly the better phone.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] anthonylokrn:
The GS2 is very nice...but TMO won't be seeing it anytime soon.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] XPLANE9:
I'm sorry but does that make any sense at all? You said the GS2 wins and then you state the 2X is better.

And in reality, the SGS II is obviously a more polished product than the 2X.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mr.orange303:
Yeah. I realized were on the brink of a whole other level of phones.

The gs3 will be worth the upgrade.

I'm definitely keeping the g2x over the sensation.

But I would have loved the gs2.

I don't see how anyone could rate the sensation over the g2x
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mr.orange303:
Did you miss the 3rd phone?

The galxlaxy s 3 wins overall.

But the 2x best the sensation.

And its only 2.2 imagine when its 2.3
[T-Mobile LG G2x] gaww:
Sensation with locked booloader - dead on arrival.

The G2X is actually running better on 2.2.2 with OC kernels than 2.3. Would have loved to seen 2.4 on one of these.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jcbofkc:
Not to stray too far, but didn't HTC announce all their boot loaders will be unlocked.

http://www.phonescoop.com/news/item.php?n=8206
[T-Mobile LG G2x] diablos991:
They barely announced this. Do you think they would scrap all their production to unlock the bootloaders? ... No

More than likely you will just see the key leaked earlier on the sensation.

HTC stated that future phones would be unlocked. At that time the sensation was in production already.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mr.orange303:
Yes the sensation will be unlocked. Well the keys given out.

But the sensation is clearly suffering from older tech. How does a 1ghz dual core in the g2x outperform a 1.2 ghz in the sensation?

Especially when the g2x is running foyo and the sensation is running gingerbread.

Has all these people who want to ditch the g2x even researched the 2?

The g2x is in fact the better phone.

They raised the price because the only thing your getting better on the sensation is the screen.

And thats debatable.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kdunn1994:
For those of you who don't know the sensation uses an arm a8 processor and the g2x uses a arm a9, even though the sensation is clocked higher it still doesn't match up to the g2x its like an i7 vs i5.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mr.orange303:
Correct. And they wonder why the sensation is getting a8 benchmark results lol.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] BDorestant:
Same here, I remember thinking about getting the Sensation but then came along the G2x which is a beast. Second best phone coming out this year, have to give an edge to the GS II just because of the 4.3 inch SUPER AMOLED PLUS screen and it's dual core 1.2GHz processor that hits 3100+.........besides that both phones are just as good as each other. Oh and mind you the G2x isn't running GB yet which means those 2500-2800 quadrant scores should be around 3000 as well.

Running stock rooted G2x with faux123 stock kernel @ 1.1GHz
[T-Mobile LG G2x] JWhipple:
I think the bulk of the persons who are choosing the Sensation over the G2x may be those who got fed up with the bum G2x's out there that have the constant locking up or rebooting problems. I personally have gone through 3 of them and was ready to explode over the matter...

Yes yes, I know, "I have one and I haven't had any of those problems" - good for you - you're one of the lucky ones. For us who have experienced it with multiple phones, well, lets just say that we have been left with a bad taste in our mouths.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] iamlilysdad:
Yes the Thunderbolt is sturdy...until the kickstand peels.

The Evo 4G is sturdy...if you got the right screen.

Point is...HTC suffers from launch bugs and jitters like any other manufacturer.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mr.orange303:
Yeah. But my g1 was a great phone.

My dad did have his evo's screen come up at the corner. But his 2nd one was good.

Yes, it's true. Tech savvy but appropriately cautious non-professional computer guy actually carefully read the forums for a month and a half, downloaded the right stuff, re-read the caveats, and then rooted his P1010.

I am right now staring at a black console window with the adb innards of the P1010 staring me in the face (I am as always extremely humble and not a little afraid of the power available to me in my fingers right now).

Im mad about this 2011 tablet status.... i thought they where going to settle so apps will run anywhere with icecream sandwich but when it comes out we will have 4 diferent processors.

Nvidia in the tech demo for kal-el they say "using nvidia dualcore is to sloooow " i mean wtf!? its not even 3 months after they released it and its old now? my problem its not that the xoom is getting old my problem is that when this quadcore comes out we will end up having only 10 apps for tegra because people will start developing for the new tegra.

Also theres the other processors coming out...how will they manage to make apps compatible will all of them? will we have like an app store for tegra, then for snapdragon,etc.

Im not angry it happens all the time with tech and i get it that they have to move on. But isnt this making it worst for app developers and users.

ps. sorry for my bad english...im learning
[Xoom General] ZanshinG1:
The situation with android tablets isn't anything to worry about.

It's really no different than the PC world where there are at any given time multiple generations of PCs out there, which developers use the tools of a standard API (in the PC's case, DirectX or OpenGL) to scale the performance across the target platforms.

Since everything PC is x86, unless you're -really- trying to squeeze every bit of performance out of your game, or unless a company has paid you to target their specific GPU/CPU's extensions, you don't have to worry about specific architecture.

On Android tablets, everything is ARM in one flavor or another, and you're writing to OpenGL ES 2.0. You'll be able to use specific extensions in OpenGL ES to target newer rendering features so you can scale up your graphics for newer GPUs, but since it's a standard API, you should be able to have one apk for all target platforms.

The premiere game engine for Android, Unity, makes this especially easy.

tl:dr don't worry, newer games will still work on your Xoom after the next generation tegra/OMAP/whatever come out. You just might not have all the rendering features in the game.
[Xoom General] Kcarpenter:
You are becoming familiar with whats known as Moores Law (linky). We are in a time where it is accelerating very rapidly. And what seems to us like great strides are actually very small in the grand scheme of transistors. Primarily because we have been so used to getting a new processor every 1-2 years on a desktop scale for the past 15 years, with small .1 ghz improvements farther in the past, too recent additions of whole processor cores.

Pretty much, unless you have tons of $ to drop on devices, you will no longer be able to stay cutting edge for long, (+/-6 months of growth for new platforms to hit the market). Especially in the hot world of mobile devices.

You can almost count on the day the release the QuadCore NVidia or OMAP chips, that 6 months down the road is a new chip that A) Has More Power B)Uses less Power C)Cost less - Pick two - that will be the new "in thing" for mobile.
[Xoom General] ZanshinG1:
Kcarpenter is dead on.

Tablets are even more hot right now because companies have seen how well Apple is doing with the iPad.

They want a piece of the market-share, so are throwing lots and lots of R&D dollars at newer, better, faster tablet tech.
[Xoom General] Kippui:
Honestly, there is only a small handful of good looking games/apps made for 3.1. Devs should take advantage of the current gen single core phones/tegra 2 before moving on to quad core. It's probably going to be like the pc, it takes awhile for devs to actually take ADVANTAGE of the hardware. I still boot up some games and they only max out a few threads out of my core i7.

tl;dr: You have at least a 8 months - 1 year on the xoom.
[Xoom General] e.mote:
I think it's more market forces than Moore's Law. The tablet platform is wide open, and no company wants to get left behind. Unlike the desktop where Intel had a lock on the x86, many competitors are gunning for SoC slot. Nothing revs up a product cycle faster than the threat of competition.

It's the same for device vendors and OS vendors. Take Microsoft. It took them 6 years to go from XP to Vista, and 3 years to Win7, for really fairly minor evolutionary changes. Why? Because they had no competition. We'll see how fast Ballmer can make his EGRs dance, now with his Windows cash cow on a hook. I'd be shocked if Win8 doesn't show up by next year.

Some MS dude is supposed to give a "state of Windows" address soonish at Computex. We'll see what tidbits he can serve up. From the rumor mill, it sounds like MS want to go the Apple route, buying Nokia's phone biz for 19 bils, and dictating what hardware vendors can build.

Likewise, I'd be shocked if Moto & co won't have a refresh to their line-ups this year. The Xoom never sold well, and sales won't get any better. (The eBay thing is probably to clear out inventories.) Back-to-school and Xmas are the two largest buying seasons of the year. There'll be many shiny new toys for kiddies to ask Santa for.
[Xoom General] mhausig:
Nvidia is a hardware manufacturer and they are betting the farm on Tegra. If you look at their roadmap they are aiming to make each new version of Tegra obsolete within less than a year of it being released. They want to maintain a high demand for the latest and greatest chips and they can't do that with just incremental improvements (see the current state of PC gaming).

Tech demos are always going to push the limits but most games are going to aim lower. Most will target Tegra 2 and add features if Tegra 3 is available.
[Xoom General] abowlby:
@Zanshin Thank you for the explanation on architecture. I posted a question on another thread here asking if this situation has the potential to become a true successor to the PC market, with all kinds of machines running *basically the same Android OS; from many price/quality brackets. What are your thoughts?
[Xoom General] ZanshinG1:
I'm guessing that Ice Cream Sandwich is a step in that direction.

One OS for tablets and phones and GoogleTV sounds like an attempt to bring write-once, run anywhere to developers, which is what will allow the ecosystem to grow unrestrained.

As much interest as there is in Android, there really aren't that many developers taking it seriously. I expect that'll change if ICS is what I think it will be.

Tech buyer is a catch 22, and it is people like us who power it.

We buy hot new tech Product 1 with a hot new Mach 2 processor. We have now identified ourselves as the sort of person who will buy hot new gadgets. However we already bought this one, so they can't make more money from us...or can they?

They use the money we paid them to create hotter, newer Product 2 with a hotter, newer Mach 4 processor...and some new screen voodoo...and less weight. They ramp up the hype knowing the same things that made us buy Product 1 will make us buy Product 2 and feed into that same hype, making Product 2 a must have product, even for people who resisted Product 1. "LOOK...Even people who bought Product 1 are eager to buy Product 2!! They must know something..we must ALL need one!!!!" Our embracing of something ensures that it will be replaced by a better version in a year.

Who has made this process into an art form?

Well...replace the work Product with iPad....
