[Android Software Development] deadfraggle:
I'm not a programmer, I just want to compile MAME for the Android. But, of course compiling code within the Android platform is not possible (as one would do it in Ubuntu or Debian), so I need the Android SDK and enough knowledge of java to call the native code, which needs to be packaged by the NDK, launched from within Cygwin.:eek:

Seems there will also be some video issues, beyond my comprehension. MAME developer R. Belmont posted this on porting MAME to Android:

Whatever that means, it sounds like a lot of work. Looking around for similar projects for examples on how to call native code like the source for MAME , I found the java activity source code for aDosBox. It's also an emulator, but also has video requirements and uses native source as it's base. I'm still decrypting what it does, but for a developer (perhaps you!) looking to port MAME, it might be a good place to start.

What would be cool, is a couple templates I could just plug the needed particulars into. One for the Android.mk file that adds any required libraries needed for video stuff when I use ndk-build, and one for the java activity that simply calls the native code.

The MAME source code also has an SDL backend in the included build system. The build system 'detects' what platform it's on and builds accordingly. Can SDL be used in the Android SDK?

Basically I'm trying to figure out how to change the default wallpaper on say a cm.zip so that who ever flashes it ( for the first time ) will get my chosen wallpaper ?

Any help is appreciated
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cjward23:
Using winzip, 7zip or what ever your favourite archive manager is. Navigate to system/framework/Framework-res.apk/res/drawable-hdpi and look for a file named default_wallpaper.jpg.

You simply need to delete the old wallpaper and replace it with the one you want, making sure to rename it default_wallpaper

[HTC Inspire 4G] diablo009:
Don't mean to be rude, but there are already many many many battery related threads. Plus since this is specifically related to CM7, it would be better to post this in the same thread than adding one more to the battery threads clutter.

What I don't get is why people feed em.

If someone posts in the wrong section ignore the thread and move on with life. It will drop to page 60 within a few hours.

[EVO 4G General] Prugor:
You guys throw around the term troll a lot. The correct term for the context would be noob and report the post to be moved to the question section. Complaining about the problem and not offering a solution is pretty lame.
[EVO 4G General] kingdazy:
The fun thing is, it's about to get "worse".

This happened with the Hero too.

From what I've noticed, the cycle goes like this:

Awesome phone is dev phone of choice.

New awesome phone gets released, and previous awesome phone becomes "cheap phone" (or secondhand phone) of choice.

XDA floods with new members with their "new" phones, wanting to join the fun.

By this time, the usual well-known devs, and seasoned users, move on to new forum section, old section fills up with ... well, n00bs (fine) and trolls (not fine).

repeat.
[EVO 4G General] Genjinaro:
LOL!

I'm not too shocked, going by Google its XDA's 2nd most popular section in the entire community. Your bound to see just as many tards as well as noobs.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Squewheet:
I've been really tired of now being able to find a way to root my Motorola backflip on my iMac. I've looked all over and asked everywhere but it seems no one knows how or the don't respond to my post on the forums. I came here to ask because I heard there is where I should be asking.

So here is my situation. I bought my phone thru my cellphone carrier. It's a small phone carrier here where I live "Cellular One". And it's my first smartphone and all and when I found out that I could update my Android to 2.1 I was like yeah. So I went and tryed but it showed that phone wasn't able to take the update. So I did some checking and noticed that my system version was not a USA system.

So I asked my cellphone company about it and found out that they buy all there phones out of the country. And my cellphone was bought from italy. So my system is different from the USA update. And that is why I can't update it. So I thought that I would just root my phone to get the update. But it seems I can't find a tutorial on how to achieve what i'm trying to do.

So does anyone know on here know how to root a "Motorola Backflip on a mac"

System Version: Blur_Version.0.1.2.MB300.Retail.en.IT

Hardware Version: CHWG2814AA

If you need to know anymore details about the phone let me know.

Thanks,

Squewheet

Hi,

I have installed Android 2.3 on my HTC HD2. Right now, I do not have wifi at my home and i am using an ASDL Ethernet connection to my PC.

Earlier while using Windows 6.5, I used ActiveSync for this purpose. ActiveSync allows us to share PC (desktop) internet on phone using USB cable.

Is there any way i can connect to internet on my phone using internet from PC using USB cable (using ANDROID) (as was working for Microsoft ActiveSync)?

Thanks

No easy way...

I also wanted this feature missing from wm ,But finally opt for wireless router ..
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Sohip:
I'm currently using "MccMBoxmaX GS V7.0 Gingerbread 2.3.3[Sense 2.1+3.0]3D Effect" and it has an option called "Internet pass through" when u connect your HD2 to the computer, I believe this is a Sense 3 feature so all builds based on this new sense has it too. I tried to test it first to see if it works, and it works :)

But first of all you need to download "HTC Sync" Version 3 to install the required drivers for your HD2.

Second of all, make sure your firewall on your PC isn't going to block the new installed application from sending and receiving data from the internet to your HD2.

Finally you enable "data pass through" option on your HD2 after you connect the usb cable of course and that's it!.

hopes this helped you...

Introduction to the new Overclocking Daemon

This ROM features a completely new way of Overclocking and managing screen states.

The History

But before explaining it further, let's talk about previous solutions.

There are several different approaches to achieve "screen-state-scaling".

That means basically that the governor changes if you turn the screen off and changes back to normal when turning the screen on.

This is mainly used to restrict the amount of CPU usage (the frequency in fact) during screen off. This can lead to a major battery life increase.

The solutions so far were:

Apps like SetCPU, which change automatically the governor based on profiles

Integrated solutions in the governor itself

Both these solutions have major problems.

The one with a tuner app is always a little laggy right after turning on the screen because SetCPU (or any other CPU tuner) needs some time to change the governors (up to 7 seconds). This leads mostly to major lag in the lockscreen.

The second solution is the smartass governor. It has already a screen-state-scaling included, so it reduces the frequency when the screen turn off.

This could be a really nice solution but it has some problems too.

Smartass most of the time is not really stable and has problems with its frequency scaling.

State-of-the-art-solution

So we (more precisely rmk40) thought of a better solution.

He wrote a native C Daemon which changes the governors

instantly without any lag.

This leads to

major performance improvements

right after turning on the screen and in the lockscreen.

But at the moment this solution is a little bit harder to configure. We are planing to make a GUI for this, so you get the same comfort as using SetCPU.

Nevertheless you can even now adjust the daemon to your needs.

Be aware that the daemon only works if

all

CPU tuner apps are

deinstalled.

Otherwise it deactivates itself.

How to adjust the daemon

The daemon is configured with 6 files in the folder /system/etc/virtuous_oc/.

There are 3 files for the wake state and 3 for the sleep state. For each state one file for the governor, one for the minimal frequency and one for the maximal frequency.

You can easily edit these files eg. with RootExplorer or any other app which can edit system files. So you can adjust the frequencies and the governor for each state just like with SetCPU.

In order to get the available frequencies for the current kernel, just open your favorite terminal app and type

cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_frequencies

You could also use adb shell to show the frequencies on your computer.

To get the available govenors use a similar approach:

cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_governors

Please make sure, you are entering the right values in the daemon's config files.

[myTouch 4G Android Development] TeeJay3800:
This looks awesome! Although I am a little confused at this point. Virtuous Fusion had reached a state where it was incredibly stable, very fast, and almost bug-free, so I don't understand the need to start over form scratch. Also, if this is based directly on the Sensation dump, then what was VF based on? The OP says this is the "first custom Sense 3.0 ROM", but haven't there been custom Sense 3.0 ROMs for months already?

I'm not being critical here at all. Just asking some valid questions. This sounds like it will be even better than VF, so I'm totally stoked! :cool:
[myTouch 4G Android Development] mackster248:
+1 Ditto. Wondering the exact same questions. Hopefully Mr. eViL can shed some light on this for us.

That new OC Daemon is VERY interesting to say the least. Love the fact that something new is being incorporated here.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] cnote74:
Virtuous fusion was based off of a leak and virtuous unity is based off of the final shipped rom

Am I missing something? Glacier not listed anywhere on the Virtuous site... Is support for that device being added in the upcoming (today) release?

Thanks,

[myTouch 4G Android Development] Killbynature:
It probably take awhile before they add us on the site. Its being released tonight most likely. As all the other phones that supported. This should run far better than virtuous fusion as this is based on a final build of the sensation.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Ace42:
Evil can add support for unity series no need for it to be there. Unity should be much faster than the previous base evil was using on fusion3d.

My girlfriend just got the sidekick 4g and while playing around with it, I fell in love with the damn UI it uses. I know its pretty much a modded TW interface. Just curious if anyone else has looked at it and played with it and ended up liking it. I would love to see some type of port, tho I know very unlikely. And no "If you like TW then get the sidekick!!!!" comments, they are just pointless. The sidekick just doesn't have all the hardware I want. Tho I do miss the sidekick keyboard. Best damn physical keyboard I have ever used. RIP Danger. lol

[Nook Color General] oenie:
Hi,

I've run into a boot-loop problem with my rooted nook color.

It was working fine before, but i turned it off today and connected it to a charger.

Suddenly i noticed it started booting up but the boot stopped at the Nook Color devs screen. It keeps looping on that screen till halfway the word color (in rainbow colors)

I haven't done any updates or anything, it just started doing that.

Is there a way of doing a reset WITHOUT having to go through a factory reset ?

Of course, being the *ss i am, i forgot making a backup, so i would prefer not to lose data and stuff on the nook.

As i recall, i rooted the Nook Color with CMW 3.0.2.8 and Manual Nooter 4.5.18.

Any help would be appreciated

Kind regards,

Jeroen

[Nook Color General] bobzdar:
I had the same problem, ended up having to go back to stock (using cwm) and then re rooting. Since I already had everything on the sd card, i redownloaded the apps I wanted after rooting and the whole proces only took about 20 minutes. I've since downloaded titanium backup in case it happens again so I can skip that last step and it should only take about 10 minutes to get everything back.
[Nook Color General] TMan459:
Just an FYI I bootlooped by updating Adobe Flash Player through the market. Looks like the stock ROM either depends on its certain version of Flash our has a special version just for the Nook.
[Nook Color General] GMPOWER:
The problem with all version of MN prior to 4.5.25, is that they run the risk of Adobe Flash auto-updating themselves. You have to manually go into the Market and un-check the auto-update box. When flash updates itself, it causes the boot-loop when the device reboots.

You can try this fix, download the attached file, and flash it with CWM. The file should delete the adobe flash files, and then install Flash 10.3. This should fix the boot-loop, and keep your current file system without having to reset. If the fix works, and the device boots up, then make sure that you go into the Market, and uncheck the auto-update for flash.

If you have any problems understanding my English, let me know and I can try to reword it for you.
