Not really, at least not me.. First off finding nvidia Froyo source was a PITA and I only got it from a clone of the old repo so no tellling there.. Plus the other steps seem to mostly be nonsense, as files don't match up, etc..

Otherwise, I can readily compile the Dell code but the output won't load.. Symbol map does not match; ie: config is different. Maybe even compiler differences.. Dunno.
[Dell Streak 7] ssmr2t:
Im sorry for my noobness, but what would this code actually do for us? Would we then have the ability to compile our own kernels and overclock and whatnot?
[Dell Streak 7] khaytsus:
Maybe, but I just want tun.ko for now. Still no luck today, switched to Android NDK but still symbol issues.
[Dell Streak 7] Brandas:
If u can catch it compiler version is output through dmesg during bootup I don't have me streak handy or I would check. Compiler version may very well play a roll in modules loading though I have experienced it on x86 anyway

[Dell Streak 7] EwanG:
Any particular forum you have in mind? I did take a look at the somewhat updated Dell Opensource page:

http://opensource.dell.com/releases/streak7/5.06/

But it is definitely aimed at HC, and I don't think it would do much for an ICS build. On the other hand, at least it gives what "appears" to be the source and binaries for the devices (though I'm a little more inclined to use what I was able to pull off the device with ADB).

FWIW...

[Nook Color General] khaytsus:
Not every zip file you see in Android is intended for flashing! Yikes! That zip you downloaded is most likely just compressing/wrapping an apk. Look in the zip.

Be glad it didn't run ;)

I looked there, and I just see an apk.. http://update2.moboplayer.com/apk/armv7_neon-release.apk

And it says that moboplayer SHOULD automatically install a codec, so not sure it'd help but it's worth a try?
[Nook Color General] rhester72:
a) Just install the codec apk like any other, and MoboPlayer will automatically pick it up.

b) You can't use hardware decoding unless the resolution is at or below 854x480, period. Since your content (presumably) is higher resolution than that, software decoding is your only option. The good news is that (when overclocked) the Nook is indeed capable of dealing with pretty high resolutions, the bad news is that battery life will suffer.

[Nook Color General] gijosh28:
Hey Khaytsus,

I am glad it didn't run. In retrospect I definately should have known better then to try to let CWM "flash" this instead of "installing" it (so tired). That website does list it as an apk, but when you download it, it downloads as a zip. Should I have renamed it to apk and tried it? MoboPlayer didn't download anything when I started it, at least not that I saw (may have done it in the background). Either way I uninstalled it because VitalPlayer is working. I just need to see if I can make it do hardware decoding.

Thanks for the help!

Josh
[Nook Color General] gijosh28:
Hey Rodney,

In Re b): Since my video is Frame width: 624 Frame height: 352, doesn't that mean my resolution is 624x352 ... < 854x480? If not, how can I check to see what resolution my video is? I got those stats by right clicking the avi file properties -> details.

You're right VitalPlayer plays that video beautifully. Thanks for the tip about the batter. I will keep an eye on it.

Thanks,

Josh
[Nook Color General] rhester72:
There's a bit more to it than that, actually. It must be in a MPEG-4 container using the H.264 codec with baseline profile level 3.0 or less. AVIs need not apply. =)

Rodney
[Nook Color General] gijosh28:
Hey,

As an update to this thread, I used Chisleu's Handbrake profile from this thread, and converted the video with the specs above. The new video did play with hardware decoding in both the stock player, and VitalPlayer Neon. It did not look quite as good (just an iota of a difference) as leaving the file the way it was and letting the software decode it. However, when I ran the new file with software decoding it didn't look quite as good as it did with hardware decoding (again miniscule difference). Summary: The original file looked the best, but wouldn't play with hardware decoding. The Handbrake'd file looked just a tiny bit worse (hardly worth mentioning) with hardware decoding, and just a little worse still with software decoding. Below are the file specs from right-click -> properties -> details.

new Handbrake'd file = left / old as downloaded file = right

File Size: 186MB / 349MB

Length: 42:58 / 42:59

Video -

Frame Width: 624 / 624

Frame Height: 352 / 352

Data Rate: 475kbps / 988kbps

Total Bitrate: 603kbps / 1137kbps

Frame Rate: 23fps / 23fps

Audio -

Bit Rate: 128kbps / 149kbps

Channels: 2 stereo / 2 stereo

Audio Sample Rate: 44kHz / 48kHz

Also noteworthy: In refference to the battery suggestion, since I upgraded from CM 7.0.3 to CM 7 Nightly #144, my battery performance has been stellar.

Thanks,

Josh
[Nook Color General] dalingrin:
If you want the handbrake transcoded file to look as good as the original then you're going to need to match the video bitrates.

I generally transcode my videos with handbrake before I use them on my Nook. It doesn't take too long on my PC and the battery savings with hardware codecs is worth it to me.

Media playback is still a work in progress. The hardware codec "pickiness" isn't going to get much better but things like Flash and higher resolution and bitrates should improve in the not so distant future.

No miracles though =)
[Nook Color General] Divine_Madcat:
/drool

Me thinks previously mentioned optimizations are coming along...... cannot wait!
[Nook Color General] gijosh28:
If it gets no better then it already is, I am extremely satisfied. I left yesterday with a full charge at about 3pm. I went back to my room, watched an episode of Numb3rs (thats the file I was using for my tests above) with software decoding, played about an hour of airport mania, and read some Isaac Asimov for an hour. It is now 2AM (11 hours later) and my battery is at 74%. I even have the Bubbles live wallpaper which is supposed to eat up my battery. This thing is almost perfect in that it does everything I want, does it well, and does it efficiently. Thanks for your hard work on it Dalingrin.

Now if I could just figure out my music problem from the other thread, I'd be golden.

Josh
[Nook Color General] bobzdar:
Are you streaming or copying to the nook and playing? If streamimg, you can use vlc convert and stream to transcode on the fly, otherwise handbrake is the way to go.

[Wildfire General] pablito77:
Hi!

Im little curious whats your longest battery life in Wildfire?

Im using CM7 7.0.3 and first i got few problems with that, and even on stock Froyo my longest battery life with light usage was circa 3days.

After battery calibration ive made test and here is a result:

Like you can see its very light usage but im very possitive surprised with that result.

btw. Im using SetCPU with few profiles:

main: max 710 min 245

temp >46: max 352 min 245

screen off: max 352 min 245

battery<20%: max 480 min 245

and JuiceDefender.

how is yours battery life?
[Wildfire General] 3xeno:
There was another thread like this, and someone got 10 days on the Stock ROM apparently. (Don't know how though). But, I guess seeing 4-5 days of battery life with light use is pretty normal. (Atleast on CM7, Didn't test Sense since a long time)
[Wildfire General] pablito77:
10 days maybe it is possible w/o any calls etc just stand by
[Wildfire General] Adolan:
I think it was 3 days at max for me, which is pretty cool.
[Wildfire General] kevin2516:
I tried testing the battery life of my wildfire by leaving the phone and barely using it, after 2 days and still at 98%, I couldn't be bothered and abused my wifi. But overall the phone lasted at least 1-2 days with my usage.
[Wildfire General] -Howard-:
I remember one nightly where with heavy use on wifi and data texting calls...ect and i got like 3 days 2 hours ish but never got that before normally get 2 days if i re calibrated the battery.

No such luck with my 2x though -.-
[Wildfire General] Derrian:
I usually get about 8 - 10 hours. But I'm always playing with mine. XD
[Wildfire General] egodemis:
4 days usually for wildfire....... 1 day 1.5 at best galaxy s2 (with disabled 3g) an with 3g 8 hours at best.......
[Wildfire General] Lara_Shadow:
Mostly 3 days.

But highest is 6 Days and some hours in my case with stock rom.
[Wildfire General] brilldoctor:
Just found this
[Wildfire General] toycar69:
Impressive!

I'm a fairly light user, but I seem to be stuck around the 2 day mark, both on stock froyo and more recently on JokerDroid.

I've heard that the problem may be as I'm in a poor coverage area, as modern phones boost the radio power when they have poor reception.

Definitely need to find a way to make it last longer.

What is the best Android tablet right now?

I really want

1) 1 GB RAM

2) Dual Core

3) 9.7 inch or superior

4) microSD or SD

5) WiFi

6) Android 3.0

7) light

8) thin

9) Excellent battery

10) Gorgeous display, good resolution

11) Netflix (I don't care if I have to root the phone)

12) Ability to root the tablet (this is

VERY

important)

13) Price

I would ideally like something that looks as cool as the iPad 2

I REALLY like how Apple makes their devices really thin, especially the iPad 2, it looks SO awesome

Any suggestions?

I want to buy the tablet within the next 30 days or so, I only like to wait if it makes sense. For example, I am tired of waiting for the Samsung Galaxy SII, by the time it comes I won't buy it, it just arrived way too late for my taste

So, if the answer is "Wait 2 months and then..." then I'm not interested

If I have to wait 30 days or so, I guess I can, but I REALLY want a nice Tablet since I've bought numerous games/apps that I think will look better on the Android Tablet

I want to buy the Tablet at Newegg
[General Questions and Answers] Theonew:
Here's the (almost) perfect one for you.... The Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1. It has all what you're looking for (except for the sdcard slot) but has a lot more features and it is available at Newegg at a reasonable price.
[General Questions and Answers] bilsmaks:
yeah he pretty much covered it...i just got a 10.1" galaxy and i love it! it would be nice to have an sd card slot, but 32gb is a decent ammount of space, and if you need more you can get a usb adapter that plugs into the 30 pin connector (basically makes the 30 pin slot a usb slot) and plus in thumb drives and such...android > ios, and the galaxy is actually thinner than the ipads...samsung makes a GREAT tablet!
[General Questions and Answers] Torth:
If your looking to get one right now and not wait than the samsung galaxy that just came out is your best bet. although just fyi you are getting close the shopping season so you are going to see a slew of different models coming out from various companies, and you will always get that buyers remorse feeling as the item that comes out 2 weeks after you buy yours will have some new fancy feature added to it.

But as of right this minute the galaxy should meet your needs.
[General Questions and Answers] sweetnsour:
you can also consider the asus transformer, which is competing with the galaxy tab
[General Questions and Answers] rafarataneneces:
The Asus Transformer is $399 the Galaxy Tab 10.1 is $499

The Asus Transformer has Micro SD Card reader the Galaxy Tab 10.1 does not

So, with all due respect to all the previous comments, why should I spend the extra $200?

I dislike Apple's stupid way of charging $100 extras for a simple 16GB of space, and now Samsung (which copies A LOT of Apple, hence the legal problems it has with them), follows exactly the same idea

charge $100 extra for 16GB

So, if I buy the Asus, I can be happy with the 16GB, and then I can upgrade it

Please confirm if the Asus Transformer (which sells for $399) has expansion

So far it seems the difference is the width of the tablet, the Samsung is 30% more thinner

same with the weight 20% more lighter for the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1

Anyway, I have a $799 limit.

WIth that money I can buy a Turtle Beach PX5 + Asus Transformer and still have $136 credit left, which allows me to buy a Newegg extended warranty

PLus with teh Asus Transformer I have the extended keyboard

Bottom line, the reason why I don't see myself buying a Samsung Galaxy 10.1 is because I am FORCED to buy the 32GB model, since these Apple copycats decided that they need to charge $100 for 16GB

So I don't want to buy something not-upgradable, so I have to go for the more expensive model

If I go for Samsung I would spend $888 for both products, so there's a BIG $200 difference
[General Questions and Answers] crakeron:
Hi,

One of the best android tabs around right now would be th Asus transformer, by it's hardware, Asus's update quality, and by it's price. I would definitely go for that one, but maybe wait for the Asus Transformer 2 coming out in a few months ^^
[General Questions and Answers] rafarataneneces:
Well, have you actually tested that tablet?

I would REALLY, REALLY like to use it as a e-Book reader.

So, if it weights too much, then it might won't do the trick

Ideally I would like something that feels similar to the iPad, something that feels confortable so I can read books from that thing

Thanks a lot

[HTC Sensation] humpinbaybays:
I just found this out

disabling the badges is up to you. For most people it's convenient. But to a select few it might be distracting, annoying, ugly , whatever.

ALSO if you longer see badges and you want to see them again skip my little story \/

I disable notifications for text because my friends don't know what privacy is . But they still find out that I have new messages. They're badges on the launcher, app drawer, notification bar when you pull it down and look at your recent apps and when you hold home. Even if you disable notifications there is still a small badge that tells you how many txt, emails, etc you have. I found a way to turn that stupid **** off.

If you use ADW (could be any third party launcher I still haven't tried any other out) the badges obviously disappear from the app drawer . But they also disappear from the notification bar and when you hold home . The only place they still show up is the lock screen. I download widget locker but you can do whatever. Also if you noticed that your counter badges disappeared uninstalling (if any) third party launchers could fix that.
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:

[HTC Sensation] Lord60:
facial recognition app?
[HTC Sensation] Matt1408:
Maybe I'm a bit lost. What do you mean by "Notification badges" with the stock Sense, I never remember seeing ANY notifications other than on the lock screen and notification bar.

To disable messages on the lockscreen, go to Settings -> Privacy -> Uncheck display message text.

And personally, I think your friends suck. If they're the kinds of people who would snoop over your phone to see what they are doing then I wouldn't invite them over. Just password lock your phone, and don't give it to them, it's that simple.
[LG Optimus 2x] Shadowman19:
Hi all,

I noticed that LG Optimus 2x has the lowest display battery consumption percentage I have ever seen on any Android device. Independent from the ROM I use, I usually get between 3 and 10 (very rarely!) percent in the battery stats. All other devices I have seen until now usually have the highest percentage for display. My highest normally is cell standby or phone inactive.

So, does that mean that our phone part of the handset uses much more power than the phone part of other devices? Or does our display just use less? Or is the reporting simply different from other android models?

Since my battery goes down faster when display is on, I cannot really believe that display consumes only 3% of my power. Otherwise, when display is on, the processor also has to work so that might be the reason for consumption being higher with display activated....

Any thoughts on that?

Thanks!
[LG Optimus 2x] Tamaris:
Did you see my post? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1193402

It could be similar in some ways.

What do you see in Spare Parts? In the network usage ( Spare Parts -> Battery History -> "Network Usage"). Maybe your network is active when the display is on.
