Is there any way to make a multitouch lockscreen? Maybe the pattern lock with a customizable number of dots like a 4x4 or 5x5.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] betoNL:
Well, I am no Dev, but I am sure that, if somebody come up with a (public) BIGMEM version for the i9000, let's say...with 355MB (or more?) , It would be quite successful !

Something like Hardcore did on Froyo or Existz did on Gingerbread for the Captivate

Even if it will break video playback as a side effect..

Edit 27/08/2011:

AND HERE IS IT !!! (not 355 MB Ram, but almost!)

The first kernel BIGMEM version for the i9000 (Gingerbread) available to everyone (Public) on XDA and not only for beta testers:

Thanks to simone201for testing and launching the first public i9000 talon bigmem version and Existz, Kodos and team for the whole project/development

* EDIT 20 Sept. 2011* ::::

Talon SH T5s BIGMEM (353MB) 6 frequencies DOWNLOAD

( no 720p video meaning no 1280x720, but 720x480 is doing fine)

Talon SH T5s 6 frequencies NO BIGMEM DOWNLOAD

(but with 340MB and all video resolutions doing fine)

Try it, you won’t regret !

I am specially grateful to simone201 for doing it and for existz, that even not owning a i9000, never stopped supporting the official TalonDev thread for the i9000, especially in the very beginning when Yttr stopped supporting it.. Thanks to Existz, that thread kept on Existzing and kicking ! And the fruits are here to be harvested (is it English?)

I already donated a couple of times to the Devs above mentioned (and to many others), and I hope many users, who are enjoying their improved phones will do the same….

Hard-working devs get easily thirsty so beers are more than welcome

It is very simple, if u want i can provide a Talon Kernel in BIGMEM version....

But i will provide it with all my own mods (Talon SH Kernel)

With your own mods, you mean, kernel modifications or rom?

If you are talking only about kernel mods, of course I want to try it, test it , and if it's good, donate and advertize it

Yeah i mean my kernel mods, see my own github (search for "simone201 github" on google)

With my next build i have reached almost the perfection (also no memory leak without bigmem)

i will upload it tomorrow
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] petsasj:
Sorry for the offtopic. As far as i know, memory leakage is when the phone uses RAM and then doesn't "release" it somehow in order to be used again. Am i wrong? How can one check the status of the current memory usage and if any memory is held back? Are you guys using a special app? Or via Running Services under Settings>Manage Applications?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] betoNL:
This issue (memory leak) is very "hot" on Talon's thread...you can post your question over there..

I will give 50€ to this bounty!

Normally the SGS has 512MB ram.. Maybe 64MB for graphics from ram... there should be more than 448MB (over 100MB more than now!)..

I´ve looked at many sites to confirm, that the SGS has 512MB ram.

So... GO ON MY DEVS.. WANNA EARN 50€? REAL BIGMEM please :)

Edit: min. 370MB (everything below this line is really not enough :( )

After the Kernel is bugfree for me AND nothing important is broken, i will give an extra of 50€.

It shouldn't be normal, that the kernel and the cam + gpu is using 182MB ram.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] flolep:
I agree with you. That's what memory leaks are.

And I think Semaphore and Galaxian don't have memory leaks but are not as good as Talon, performance wise. But this last one HAS memory leaks.

A workaround is to have more free ram, so the leakage is "masked", but it may not be the real good solution.

I think having more free ram (more than 60 mb free in every situation for smoothness) AND retrieve memory leaks are the solution, all functionalities still there, smoothness because more than 60 mb all the time (even with more than 100 applications installed), and no need to reboot because of crappy memory leaks.

BIGMEM could be good but IT WILL break 720p recording video (not a solution for me) but it will be good ONLY IF there are no memory leaks AND enough free ram in every situation...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] simone201:
Well, i think that if u try to disable ZRAM into Talon Kernel, the memory leaks will go away...

That's why in my mods of Talon Kernel i have made the zram module as disabled by default, and u can enable it with a simple terminal command
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] chanw4:
Memory leaks are memory that cannot be reach / used again. However, the 'leakage' you talking about is a feature of Android's memory management which let program to start up faster since the memory is already loaded in the memory.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] betoNL:
First off all, what is not a solution for you, doesnt mean it cannot be a solution for others; not every sgs is the same and who the hell knows what a user is doing with his phone.

I already gave my opinion on Talon's thread about how I find those "memory leak" discussions useless :

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16948640&postcount=2833

I dont see any other kernel having a better memory performance than Talon and I also dont / didnt have 99% of the issues reported over there (bluetooth, wifi, system corruption etc etc)

When a I had small discussion/conversation with existz ( and other users) concerning potencial probs , possibly related to file system conversions, we both agreed on one thing: That 99% porcent of the issues reported are user-error or rom related.

And then I asked him why he and other devs are going over their heads, trying to re-invent the clock and trying to fix issues that me ,him and many other users dont have.

The answer my friend is blowing in the wind ....

To make a long story short, during Froyo I was using only Hardcore's speedmod kernels.

Hardcore always had (on froyo) an alternative 355MB (bigmem) version for every build (which was breaking video playback).

I was a happy user of those bigmem versions, even if I could not playblack video anymore...WHY? ?

That's because I use gps a lot (car navigation), and my favourite offboard program, the iGo MyWay (or any other iGo version) is RAM hungry.

I was running iGo much more smoothlier on Speedmod bigmem than on a Speedmod kernel without bigmem

That's because even when all that Android memory swapping thing is working good, there is just not enough free ram to run such a heavy app. The sgs , according to the specs., have 512MB Ram, but in fact , only 339 MB available, to run everything, including those visible and not visible background stuff...

I am no developer, but because i performed TONS of tests and on MANY kernels (and always using the same rom and the same file system), I know for a FACT, that my sgs will run some RAM hungry apps like iGo, much smoother on a BIGMEM kernel with at least 355 RAM to start with..

So thanks for your opinion, I respect it and I gave my opinion about it, but please, from now on keep those useless "memory management "discussions out of this thread

This thread are for the other users like me, that are asking for a kernel with more RAM to begin with -REGARDLESS- , memory management/modding/improvements stuff

And in my case, as I already said, I would sacrifice video playback, for it...

At least it's a start....

Ok guys, i will do it this evening, as i am busy now...

Also i will include new tweaks into the kernel and some minor optimisations from Talon Dev Sources
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] pyrorob:
ok, so ive seen this in wayy too many roms here and i thought id post this for anyone whos interested..

ok, for one thing most bravo oem roms (as far as i know..) include cyberon voice commander, now personally i love it, works great for me..

now it consists of,

the apk (voicecommander.apk, com.cyberon.cvc.VoiceCommander.apk, etc..)

the libs (libDigitRecg8k.xxxx.so, libDigitRecg16k.xxxx.so, libLexMgr.xxxx.so, libTTS.xxxx.so, libVSR8k.xxxx.so, libVSR16k.xxxx.so and libVCUtil.so) (the xxxx is where the language code is.. ie;0409 is english)

now those files alone are around 6mb (more so if you have other language files installed with it)

now heres the kicker.. those libs are in system/lib but what alot of cooks dont realize (from what ive seen) is that the system/lib/"VR" folder is for cyberon too! and that folder alone is 30mb! (it includes multiple languages)

so right there if you want to save 36 or more megs, remove those..

now if you only want english, just save the files that have the 0409 extension

and removing the non 0409 files alone will save around 30+ megs

just some handy advice..

Hello.

I've got Samsung Omnia 7 from Vivacom Bulgaria ( it's an operator ).Sadly I updated it to NoDo without unlocking first.So after reading a lot here and there i understand the only way to unlock it is ..to flash a rom with 7004 OS version.But the problem is, i dont want to lose my warranty, so i was wonder if any of you guys can tell me what is the right rom for me, if possible my original rom.Here's some info:

I live in Bulgaria.

My operator is Vivacom.

Phone info:

Bootloader version: 5.2.1.4

Chip SOC version: 0.36.2.0

I don't know how to get my phone's PDA.

Side-question: If I wait for mango, wonder if when it's released there will be a new unlock for it..so i don't have to flash now?

thanks in advance for the help and sorry if i posted in wrong selection, i couldnt post in dev selection..

Hello guys,

I've tried to find the information required but I'm not so good in the search probably.

I've just bought a Defy and it has the 2.2 froyo stock rom. Now I'd like to install the Cm7 rom, but I'd like to know if is it possibile to do a full backup of the phone, so if a day I decide to return to stock rom is possible.

If yes, how I can do it?

--

Another info....how I can install on froyo the zip to allo the 720p recording?
[Defy General] zakoo2:
you can only do a full backup if your phone is rooted, so i suggest you root it. if you install cm7 youll lose your warranty anyway, so... (but dont worry, you can get your warranty back by flashing or returning to a stock rom). about the 720p recording... you can only record 720p if you have a bayer device (red lens), but if you bought your defy now, you probably have a soc device (green lens). heres a thread about lens color: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1116694

and heres a begginers guide for defy:

[Defy General] nickee:
Thanks for the reply.

I've just rooted, installed superoneclick, rdslite, 2ndinit (all the stuff to put the cm7 rom). How I can do a full backup? there's a new program or I use one of the software installed?

I've read the BEGINNER's GUIDE but I don' understand the meaning of the SBF and FIXED SBF. If I install a full SBF I can't go back in a lower version, but if I install a FIXED SBF I can go back. So, if there aren't countereffects, why Install Full SBF?!

---

It seems that my defy have the red lens, so 720p rec supported. So how I can install the zip?
[Defy General] zakoo2:
i used mybackup root from market, but titanium backup is also a good app. fixed sbf means its missing cg31 and cg39 codegroups (thats the /system partition and something else), so you have to have the correct nandroid backup for the original sbf to install it. but since you bought it with froyo and you want to install froyo, theres no need to flash a fixed sbf, use the normal sbf. (its much simpler). i cant really help you installing the 720p patch, never tried it, since i got green lens. but check if you really have a red lens! (pictures taken on 5MP are more than 1MB, download alogcat reader from market, and if it reports a bayer device, you have red lens).
[Defy General] nickee:
Red Lens ;)

So I can use Mybackup to do a full backup ;)

Thanks for all the info ;)

Hoping someone can help me to installing 720p zip ;)
[HTC Incredible S] johnblundon:
Hey Guys,

This may be a stupid question but here goes... Hopefully it doesn't upset a MOD :)

I manually installed CWM on my Incredible S, later I got ROM manager. When I start rom manager it tells me that I don't have CWM installed, but I have 4EXTRecovery v2.1.0 RC1. Is there something I'm missing and... what would happen if I loaded ROM Manager and click the install Clockwork Mod button?? I'm a little nervous about trying it and any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
[HTC Incredible S] ste1164:
All CWM does is put an update.zip file in your SD card. When you reboot into recovery through rom manager it flashes the update.zip and you use clockwork mod recovery. When you reboot into recovery again you will be back at 4EXTRecovery.

if you have EXT4 installed and IMO it's by far the best recovery available for us then once in rom manager use the manual flash over ride option rather than installing CWM

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] biohazrd51:
You just need to find and flash a Sense based ROM via CWM. Virtuous ROMs work very well. I switch between CM7 and Unity on a regular basis and both are stable enough for day to day use.

I assume you have already set the phone up for flashing different ROMs?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronzkie21:
Flashing different ROMs? How is it done? I haven't done anything to it except updating it to 2.3.4 using XDA's method. T-Mobile's OTA was taking a long time so I researched and found XDA. Thanks XDA!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] biohazrd51:
It sounds like you have a lot of reading ahead of you.

Flashing ROMs is essentially installing new firmware on the device via a program called ClockWork.

I recommend starting off by reading through guides and information on the link below. The devices typically has safeguards against allowing you to just flash new ROMs, so a process is involved to unlock the phone and allow you to do it.

Once you become familiar with what it is, then learn how to do it, and what it does. I followed the gfree method on XDA wiki and had no issues, but if I recall, being on 2.3.4 you cannot follow the same method and must downgrade first.

Read, read, read. Then read some more. Search is very helpful.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Landscape rosie (homescreen) doesn't work for Unity. Its not an install glitch or bug, per se. The ROM based on HTC Sensation ROM, which does not have a keyboard, and therefore does not have landscape. Landscape rosie simply does not exist on that ROM, and the dev was fully aware that would be the case, all along. There is no Sense 3.0 with landscape rosie until HTC makes one.

Doubleshot has landscape rosie. Virtuous Sense is based on the official ROM for the Desire Z, so I assume landscape rosie works on that, as well.

There are also other Sense ROMs besides the Virtuous ones, like Insert Coin. But I don't know a whole lot about them.
