[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ECOTOX:
Hey, I just got a quick question

When compiling a CM7 kernel for the NS4g, do i use samsung-kernel-crespo or is there a samsung-kernel-crespo4g? thats all i need to know =]
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SA-07:
Crespo4g
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ECOTOX:
ok, thanks =]

PS. Not seeing Crespo4G in the CM github? and git is still down right? where can i get a clean source? (lol, i gues i have one other question XP)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SA-07:
Well on the gingy source I do

lunch

Then select crespo.but for u its 4g haha
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ECOTOX:
ok, so its done similar to building the CM7 rom then? Havent worked with CM source in a while, been using the Samsung sources for my vibrant =P
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SA-07:
I have never built cm7 in my life lol

I do know its "bacon"

But just look up building cm7 on Google and the wiki page it comes up with rocks
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snandlal:
For cm I do

. build/envsetup.sh && brunch crespo4g
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ECOTOX:
Ok, I was under the impression that was how to build CM7 itself. For the kernel is it the same? Or do I need to search for a copy of the source from before git got hacked....with the vibrant I could just DL the source from supercurio or Samsung {when I first started working on it}, with NS4g Idk... I'm assuming crespo kernel source won't work, but then again I haven't worked with the nexus phones ever so idk.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snandlal:
This is the correct kernel source for nexus s and 4g. It produces the zImage. zImage + Ramdisk = boot.img

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/samsung-kernel-crespo

The commands are:

export PATH=$PATH:/home/YOUR LINUX USERNAME/android/system/prebuilt/linux-x86/toolchain/arm-eabi-4.4.3/bin/ (You can put this command in bash.rc so you don't have to type it everytime you compile)

make ARCH=arm herring_defconfig (This command writes the herring_defconfig in configs)

make -j4 ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-eabi- (This command actually produces the zImage)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ECOTOX:
thanks =] I just needed the source and i wasnt sure if that was for both (i know how to compile it ^^)

PS. to anyone who comes across this thread, you can just edit the makefile so you dont have to type all that =]
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ECOTOX:
ok...well I'm at a loss here....compiled the kernel like normal and installed using the anykernel script and i cant get the kernel I compile to boot. Even if I just compile the kernel source with no changes it doesnt boot.....any ideas? =/ i cant find any reason for it to not boot. Its got no changes from the CM keel source and all i did was compile it and merge it into he boot.img

(never had problems on SGS kernels =3)

EDIT: may also be tat my keyboard isnt working properly.....typos can cause a few problems =3...will check

[Motorola Droid 3] deyna:
i haven't seen any complaints about ghosting so it may just be my phone but i have it really bad.

it's very visible when i scroll through my home screens because i have a near black background and use the red and white data widget.

it also makes text and such look horrid when i scroll through menus or web pages
[Motorola Droid 3] rynosaur:
You probably have the brightness set extremely high or extremely low.

Whenever CM7 comes out for the D3, you can try adjusting render settings to improve the overall gamma of the screen. I'm guessing you're just more sensitive than most to a high-persistence screen, unless you have found a way to monkey with your refresh rate ;)
[Motorola Droid 3] deyna:
i've got a friend who has the same phone so i'll see if his is the same.

i haven't messed with the screen settings at all and have it set to auto brightness.

my last phone was the Nexus S with it's s-amoled screen. does this screen have a lower refresh rate then it did?

i know normal monitors have about a 60hz refresh rate but i know nothing about smart phone screens.
[Motorola Droid 3] rynosaur:
You've got me on the specs. I know desktop LCDs/LEDs are capable of higher refresh rates, but those aren't necessary for regular applications (read: non-bluray, non/gaming). Not sure where a smartphone like the D3 would land in the gamut between 29mhz and 120mhz.
[Motorola Droid 3] Xenoproctologist:
I've got a little...not exactly ghosting, but similar...on mine. It seems to me that the display controller for the pentile screen isn't outputting all of the color channels at the same time, so i end up with a red fringe or bloom around objects scrolling across the screen. Hopefully, a firmware update for the chip can fine-tune things.
[Motorola Droid 3] deyna:
hmh i wish.

29mhz would be 29,000,000 refreshes per second XD

on computer monitors 60hz has been the norm for a long time. all my old CRTs use it. the newer 3d tvs and such generally need a 120hz refresh rate at the least.

even my dell inspiron 1420 has an lcd with a 60hz refresh rate and it can play bluray.

i remember there being one phone not too long ago that was limited to 30hz and most didn't like that one bit.
[Motorola Droid 3] deyna:
you may be right. i'll check another phone or two and if they have the same problems i'll just hope that an update or rom can fix it.
[Motorola Droid 3] rvschuil:
FYI: this has not that much to do with refresh rate, but more with response time. Response times are displayed in milliseconds most of the time.

For example, my uber-gaming-tft-display has a 2 milliseconds response time, which is very low and has almost no ghosting.

So, the question is: what is the response time of the qHD display in the droid 3.

I noticed the ghosting is way more visible on black backgrounds than on white. Good thing motorola changed the background in the android menu's from the default black to white.
[Motorola Droid 3] Rotkaeqpchen:
I have noticed the ghosting too but have to admit that I actually like it. Especially while playing Emulators like FPSE and Gameboid it brings back the real PSP feeling. I know, its a weird oppinion.
[Motorola Droid 3] Xenoproctologist:
It's definitely got a slower rise-time than fall-time. You can see it on monochromatic icons when scrolling the app drawer in a launcher that uses a black background -- the leading edge is a blurry mess, while the trailing edge is fairly crisp. I'm guessing that the display controller simply isn't using any kind of overdriving to improve response time.

Also, to clarify my previous characterization of the blurring, it appears not so much that the red channel specifically is updating faster, as it is that the white channel is updating slower than all of the RGB channels.
[Motorola Droid 3] GoogleAndroid:
Refresh rate has nothing to do with ghosting. Nearly every TV is actually 60, but they are falsely advertised at 600(plasmas) or use frame interpolation to achieve refresh rates above 60hz(LCD.) The only exceptions are 3D TVs. They actually refresh at 120 hz in 3D mode. Each eye sees 60hz. If they stayed at 60hz, each eye would see 30hz, and there would be noticeable flickering.

What effects ghosting is response time-the amount of time it takes a pixel to respond to a change in state. In layman's terms, how quickly it can go from one color to the next.

Plasmas and CRTs have near instant response times-it takes just nanoseconds for a pixel to change(actually, green phosphors take about 1 millisecond to change, blue and red phosphors change in nanoseconds). Nonetheless, plasmas and CRTs simply don't ghost(which is one reason why I prefer Plasma TVs). Part of this is because the pixels produce their own light. There is no backlight like an LCD.

But on LCDs, it takes the pixels many milliseconds to change. Though they are advertised between 2-6ms, the true response time of an LCD is usually at least 20 milliseconds. The Retina Display and qHD displays ghost because they have response times of 25-30ms. I can't recall why right now, but when you pack in a ton of pixels on a small screen, the response time is extremely high.

The refresh rate on phone screens is 60hz, which is actually why most are capped at 60fps, or you would probably see screen tearing.
[Motorola Droid 3] deyna:
very informative, thank you! i knew what response times are but for some reason didn't draw the line between that knowledge and ghosting.

that would also explain why it's so noticeable to me after using the Nexus S for 9 months. hopefully (though unlikely) a new phone will come out here soon with a keyboard and high res screen with good response time.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pflorin:
I wasnt satisfied with 1024x600p resolution the icons were huge so i rooted my tab with z4 and ive installed LCD Density .. and im keeping my tab at 200dpi (not to big but not to low either).

I have a question .. will this drain my battery faster cause ive noticed my battery lasts less in the last 2 days.. or is it just my 3G connection (im on Froyo 2.2 XWJJ3 default stock rom).
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -Howard-:
Changing your lcd density will not effect your battery :)
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] biffroy:
I like mine at 175, but my question is- will lowering LCD density have an affect on how the android market detects app compatibility? There seems to be yes answers and no answers I'm very confused...
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rustyshack3:
This is my second tablet device that I have changed the density for and it doesnt seem to affect any app compatibility.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tovarish:
Whenever I set 200 density, market doesnt show me many apps that I have downloaded for free and paid in "My Apps". It also doesnt let me update the apps that are not shown.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goughymachine:
For a little while now I've had my density set back to 240. I also had some app update issues when the density was changed. Appbrain would often show apps that had updates available that didn't show up as updateable when I looked in the market. And although appbrain said there were updates the apps wouldn't update.

Haven't had any such problems with my density set back to 240.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Githrog:
Changing your density will only affect apps and games that are not compatible with the density that you change to. When I change my density to 200, which is my ideal resolution, I have 5 games that do not run and their icons show up as a green and while box with the android logo in the middle of the box, they also do not show up in the my apps list in the market. When I change back to the original density of 240 everything works as normal, all 5 apps run and their icons come back as they should and they also show back up in the my apps list in the market.

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rustyshack3:

No, changing the density is changing the resolution. Everything gets smaller or larger at the same rate.

What is the problem and what is reefbox???
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
or everything WOULD be easy if his modelID wasnt corrupted.

because your modelID is corrupted so task29 thinks it is not a HD2

your ModelID is corrupted so nothing (hspl, customruu, romupdateutility, SD card flashing) recognises that your phone is a HD2, everything fails because it thinks it is a different phone.

do you mean a RiffBox? Also google 'JTAG' and 'ORT JTAG'

It is a device that allows you to directly write a new, uncorrupted bootloader (the microp code referred to in image 2) onto the hardware. It requires you to take apart the phone, and it is not cheap. It costs around the same as buying a new mainboard, once you buy a box and the jig to hold the main processor (unless you are REALLY REALLY good with a needle soldering iron)

My question is anyone know when this will come out and when can we get it?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] isolated_epidemic:
looks interesting but sounds like its an enhancement that needs to be made at the rom level, not just an app you can sideload. So our chances of seeing it may be slim until a manufacturer makes a similar device to ours and includes it in their rom. By the sounds of it i dont think a rom developer here is going to have an easy time getting the required source to integrate it for us, unless they have millions to pay onskreen for licensing.

This sure does look like the future though and i wouldnt be surprised to see something similar pop up in Ice Cream Sandwich.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mrevankyle:
I have been following on-skreen for a couple months. They assure everyone that you will just be able to sideload and to get into the alpha/beta testing just like their facebook page and they will send you the link when it comes out. they are working with google themselves to bring it in stock jelly bean or maby a version later as well as with Motorola directly
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ExploreMN:
Looks interesting. I wouldn't say I'm getting excited in the sense of sporting wood over it, but it would make using the tablet nicer. One of my biggest "problems" is when I'm watching a movie on Netflix and I get an e-mail. If I check the e-mail then I have to reload Netflix and hope it saved my spot correctly which it does *most* of the time. It would also be nice to do that while surfing the web, etc. However, those are the only two scenarios I would need something like this.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] earlyberd:
I get the feeling there would need to be limits on what apps you could have running side-by-side, because due to memory constraints it would be impossible to have, for instance, two high-def video players running at once. Android can't store apps in virtual memory on the internal storage, so you have to be mindful of that 1GB limit on current SoC systems. As you may have noticed from the demo videos, there is only one large, memory-intensive app running at a time, such as a movie or video chat, while the other running apps are small apps, such as instant messaging or email.

Still, it's a great concept, and for most purposes it will work wonderfully.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] asdfuogh:
I totally would want that. I love checking e-mail while rewatching something for the fifth billionth time!

Hi,

I've got an Archos 43 IT with dual boot UrukDroid 1.5 and the stock fw. I had the latest version of the market running there (+market fix, installed by arctools) and all worked just fine. But since a few days ago the market only shows very few apps (like 2-3 each section) in both (stock and ud). When I try to install apps over the official market-homepage, I get the message like this (translated): "This App isn't compatible to your Archos A43-Device."

What can I do here? Does anyone have the same problem?

A few days ago in another post I read about a pro here, who managed to replace the file which told the market, that it is an A43 by an other one (i think, it was a samsung galaxy), but I can't find the thread/post anymore. I guess this should solve my problem, but I don't know which file it was, anymore.

Does anyone know, which post this was (link)/which file?

You connect your PS3 Controller to your PC and change the Bluetooth address which it connects too, which would be the Xoom's (the sixaxis app on the xoom will give you the Xooms bluetooth address). you're then able to connect the PS3 controllers to the Xoom via Bluetooth, you don't need to connect via USB OTG.
