[Defy General] ryan8r:
I meant CPU. Autocorrect pawns me often! Its not an upgrade yet a good replacement for old users looking forward to stick with the Defy brand.

Still a sham for the least they could do was include a front camera not making Gingerbread pointless.
[Defy General] minomarimat:
At first I was frustrated that they were releasing such an improvement from the Defy, but the difference isn't THAT much, just the OC and the battery. So I'm fine with my Defy. After all, we can still do stuff with this right?
[Defy General] evilinheaven:
So it wold be allrigth to our defy to run at 1200? Its processor was made for that? Or we maybe would have some heat issue?

Found the 1700mAh battery for sale at Mugen power... Kind of expensive. I'm flearting with it now.

Just to be clear, i never even considered an "Upgrade" for the Defy+. I just want my phone to be as fast and the battery last as much as it could!!

Thanks a lot for all replies!
[Defy General] ryan8r:
Can't say if the chip was tailormade for that frequency as it does heat up a bit after a while but yes its still safe.
[Defy General] Zephyrot:
Yep what ryan8r said, I dont know if it was made to run a 800 or 1200.

I do run mine at 1100 since I bought it (couple months ago) at vSel 54 and it doesnt heat up, works wonders.
[Defy General] mikeman8484:
I ve got that battery and I have to say that on any froyo and any custom roms 2.2 the improvement was really visible, however, currently im on MotoGinger and I only get 2 days of battery and that s a maximum. :( its probably my fault because recently I cant be arsed playing with a phone :)
[Defy General] redenjaja:
any other "rugged phone" suggestions? currently im still using the galaxy spica:D on my mtb rides mainly for its gps function... with this i can still take pictures even when its raining....

ooops, sorry i missed this post before inquiring :D
[Defy General] balanki:
just see Texas Instruments site.

Processors are not the same!

OMAP 3610: no 2D/3D graphics accelerator POWERVR SGX™
[Defy General] TJKV:
Refer to sixth post in this thread. Motorola lied, both defy and defy+ have the 3630 :-)

Reason is that it is well known that defy and defy+ both have the same gpu that the specs say the 3630 has, and the easy overclocking to 1300mHz...
[Defy General] fenato:
I have already defy+ and run on it "Quadrant test" and it shows me that I have same processor like Defy "ARMv7 Processor rev 2 (v7l)" The difference is that my is on 1GHz and Defy is 800Mhz....

heyyy i want to update my desire to gingerbread so that i need RUU for that coz I cant able to get to recovery mood my phone is stuck...

RUU is not available on htcdev.com so any one has a link please share....
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
its the top link on the htcdev site:

but you have to download and flash the hboot downgrader hboot first as you are s-off.

But please stop and slow down for a minute. Decide what you actually want and fix one issue at a time please.

Youre doing a million things to fix issues that perhaps you dont fully understand and before long youll brick your device.

i was so confused that i dont know what to do...

n I obviously dont know what was the problem... so I though that i might fix my phone with that... but i think I dont need that now....

thankyou again for helping me.... :))
[Trophy General] Sincidius:
I have an Unlocked & Rooted Sony Xperia Play that I got at the end of June and I am looking for an HTC Trophy to trade it for. I have decided to start WP7 Dev, but looking for a device I can use with Verizon. If you are intrested or know someone who would be, please send me a message. I didn't want to post on here, but I live in North Dakota and don't have many other options (Craigslist in ND will make you laugh it have time to look, pretty funny and sad). I would sell it, but its a lot easier to do a trade. I can send pictures when requested. Thank you.
[Trophy General] wmplayer15:

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] PoXFreak:
Question:

Is there any way to adjust GPS settings in TE or in some other settings GUI?

In all my time of Android use on the Kaiser, only once has the GPS ever worked which was with l1q1d's .25 kernel (with module update) and Incubus26jc's build.

Google maps/latitude/navigation/places all worked fine on this build but I currently have it set up with the current Sourceforge build and Scoot's/n2rjt's cache kernel. I DO NOT want to change anything EXCEPT the GPS settings.

From what I've gathered the settings should be 9600baud, N, 8, 1.

Thanx for any help in advance...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] daedric:
Wait... WHAT?

IIRC, you don't have to change anything. GPS works for a long time now...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] PoXFreak:
I don't know if it's the phone, something in the kernel or a module error but I never got a lock on any program that uses GPS, not GPS test, facebook, maps/latitude/navigation, or foursquare.

Like I said, it only worked once way back when we were using the .25 kernel with the update. Since then I've not gotten one GPS lock... not one.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] mattempus:
I'm using the new cache kernel and all of the current fixes, updates. My GPS always worked with every release. It's very slow when searching for GPS signal but it's working.

I have tried with iGo but not with Google Maps. But I think it could work with Google Maps.

I have changed the Radio ROM several times so it can't be the problem.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] PoXFreak:
I personally think I might have a bad GPS reciever in this phone because I can't remember it ever working.

Ill try and scavenge another one of these Kaisers from work (they were popular amongst the office workers), HardSPL it and install the build I'm using on it, just to see if it works. Ill report back later...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] PoXFreak:
Okay, got another Kaiser and tested GPS on it before wiping/unlocking/hardspl-ing it and it worked fine. Found 5 sattelites and locked on within seconds using GPS test under winmo.

Unlock/security unlock/hardspl/kernel install/install android and update/use backup from original phone (2.2.2 with RIL and cache update) and problem followed. GPS test only found 3 sattelites at most and never locked on for the 10-15 minutes I had it up.

IMHO, I have a software comm port issue. wether it needs a different speed or a different setting in android I can't tell. I looked over initrd and can't seem to find any port settings.

I can tell you that the GPS did work with Krazy Killa's kernel, but it was highly unstable compared to the newest one from Scoot/l1q1d/n2rjt.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] daedric:
I got a idea... flash winmo and test it :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] PoXFreak:
As stated in post #6, the Kaiser was stock when I tested the GPS, meaning winmo 6.0 was running before flashing anything to the phone. GPS tested fine under winmo, aquiring signal and lock in about 10 seconds using GPS Test for winmo (2008 version).

Im just looking for where the actual hard settings would be in either /system or in modules added. I have done some GPS work in the past (omnitech hacking and modding, changing OS, modding settings, etc.), so I have no fear of breaking something if it doesn't work anyway.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] daedric:
Somewhere on the winmo settings, you'll find the GPS port, baud etc.

You can ask in ther kernel threads how this is set...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] PoXFreak:
Thats what I was asking about...

Could the kernel (mtdblock0) be mounted under terminal emulator, be edited and still work, or is this a crapshoot?

I have all the settings for the "correct" GPS port number, Xbit, BPP, basically all of it.

I remeber reading somewhere that Android is looking for 38.4bps. This is not correct as the Kaiser uses 9.6bps, or 9600 bits data rate.

If this is incorrect, data from the satellite(s) will be misinterpeted and give incorrect readings. The satellites don't care what you recieve, it's how the data is handled after the phone gets it.

The way I learned all of this is by cracking a "nk.bin" file open for the Omnitech GPS back in 2008 and creating a custom bootloader that allowed use of one of 3 different GPS programs to run on one unit. Destinator, iGo and TomTom all ran well of this one GPS because I was able to get the GPS settings right.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] daedric:
IIRC, mtdblock0 is the WHOLE nand memory. So you cannot mount it, only mtdblock0p1, mtdblock0p2 etc etc. But yes, you can mount /system for writing with mount -o remount,rw /system

Perhaps liquid or scooter or somebody else will see this and point you in the right directions.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] PoXFreak:
Posted a question to the main android forum and have 272 views so far.

Sorry, forgot "mtdblock0" was NAND, pt1/2/3/4 is the partitions. Will try mounting and see if I can find anything. I've checked /system/libs/*.* ("all" for non-DOS users) and can't find anything pertaining to the GPS. Maybe I'm not looking in the right place.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] daedric:
/system/lib/libgps.so ???? <-----
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] PoXFreak:
Apparently I need to acces the kernel directly in order to change any values within the base GPS driver. I extracted OS (kernel) with NBH tool and gave it a once over.

I'll dig in later as myPITA girlfriend wants to go putz around today...pfft.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nickk_nac:
I have a few questions sorry if its a repost but id rather make sure I get a good answer to those questions then any other variant of them.

I got a galaxy s2 a week ago and I feel like the battery life is really bad and the phone heats alot sometimes.... (BTW this is my first smartphone EVER) I was wondering which one of all these custom ROMs out there is the best for the galaxy s2? Which one will give me the smoothest experience with a good battery life and fix that heating problem?

Also, I have the Canadian bell's version so MUGKG2... When I look at ROMs all I see is XXKH3 or XXKE7, etc... Basically how and what version do I have to use/install to get a custom ROM? (P.S I know how Odin works and I know how to root since my phone is already rooted)

And what is the latest Android version possible to get on the galaxy s2? I heard something about 4.0 but I think the latest version possible to install is the 2.3.4 am I right? Also, every ROM is 2.3.4 right? Or do I have to flash a 2.3.4 (or 4.0 depending on the latest version) kernel on the phone?

Thanks for your time and have a good day!!!!!!!

Hi guys,

I was trying to flash yoshi 1.5 to my MT3G so I ran fastboot and it said the phone was 32A, but the SPL wasn't the one required by the rom. I flashed 1.33.2010 and installed the rom and kernel but then the phone got stuck on the htc magic screen. When I ran fastboot again it showed my phone was now 32B :eek: Why did this happen and what do I have to do to install the freakin yoshi rom? Thanks for the help!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrMEEE:
I have purchased a CarPC much like this one from China:

http://www.parkly.com.cn/Simplified/ProductView.asp?ID=148&SortID=146

All the "normal" functions (radio, calling, bluetooth, tv) are not android, but the GPS has been replaced with a Android 2.3 installation..

The problem here is that the Android installation is very minimal and does not include android market...

I would try to fix it myself, but i'm missing adb access.. Also, I can get into an update mode (recovery mode) but there are no physical buttons connected to the android system.. so I can't select anything, just getting the android icon with the triangle because no update exist..

There is a usb plug on the back of the radio, which is normally use for a WIFI stick.. I have tried to connect a usb keyboard, which works fine in normal mode, but no effect in recovery mode..

There is a small 10-pin plug in the lower right corner of the unit (see pictures), I suspect this to be a adb connection, but have no idea on howto create a cable for it...

The unit is based on the TCC8900-series.. So maybe someone out there has some ideas???

Hope someone can help me get ADB connection to this carpc...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] melvinchng:
Does it has superuser permissions? If yes, you can try to install it recovery via Rom manager.

I think you can install android market without adb. Just grab android market and install it. (Not sure)

Maybe you can just make a story like tell them your android system won't boot up. Asked them how to fix it yourself. And just act like stupid, ask how to do this and that and I think they will tell you how to connect to pc.

and I have already tried to contact them.. no go... :(
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroIrish:
ADB does not require a special cable

Does the unit have WIFI on Android?

If so check what IP it is getting and connect to it via ADB, through another host connected to the same WIFI network (Like a PC/Laptop...):

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mpaulonic:
Hello MrMEEE!!!

Any new with your device? I have the same one and the same problems! Plus, the 3G does not work with modem i provide (and I dont know which other I should). I turn the Wifi on, it keeps On for about 1 minute and then turns off by itself.

I have installed SuperUser.apk through the sdcard but ths SYSTEM partition where I should put the su binnaries is READONLY. When I try to use my "su" I receive the message "the uid 10039 is not allowed to su"

So, if you have any news, please let me know.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] tazm0n:
With AT&T announcing they are stating to turn on their LTE network on the 18th this month http://www.engadget.com/2011/09/15/atandt-to-officially-deploy-its-lte-network-september-18th/, will our Infuses benefit from the higher speed?

I've read through a couple other threads on the topic, but didn't see any definitive Yes or No's. Mainly just comments on battery life issues that LTE might cause.

So, is there any new info? Are our Infuses real 4G phones or just the same 3.5G/HSPA+ as the other 'mis-labeled' 4G phones from AT&T?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] apallohadas:
I'm not holding my breath. my "4G" state doesn't include my HOUSE oddly enough. The coverage map is bull**** at it's finest.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Terrigno:
We don't have an LTE chip. We wont benefit from LTE.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] 00mred00:
LOL...This question is popping up all over and it just cracks me up...

There are not even any LTE phones on the market for ATT...

The article does confuse me though...they already have LTE active in a few cities, and it has been a city by city rollout....so are they going to turn on the remaining cities on the list on the 18th?

*Dallas, Houston, Chicago, Atlanta, and San Antonio..which were already scheduled...

They literally have two hotspot devices that will take advantage of this... that is all that I am aware of.

They advertise the Atrix as having LTE on their website...but does it?

I do think we will see 3 or 4 LTE devices by the end of October though.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] MikeyMike01:
The Infuse only has HSPA+. AT&T's website says LTE for the Jetstream and their modems and such.

There's no reason they wouldn't shout it loud and proud if it did. It doesn't have LTE.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] milan03:
Atrix and Inspire

= category 7 device with only 16QAM = 14.4mbps capable.

Infuse

= category 10 device with support for 64QAM = 21mbps.

The network has to have 64QAM turned on to achieve HSPA+ speeds over 14.4mbps.

AT&T's network doesn't have it on for some idiotic reason. It's sadly 16QAM only which downgrades peak rates on Infuse from 21mbps to 14.4mbps.

Here are some videos to prove 16QAM limit: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=73zZtMF95SU

And to prove 14.4mbps cap: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YYkeSJH5uSM

AT&T doesn't have LTE phones. Only one tablet, one air card, and one WiFi hotspot.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Terrigno:
Those LTEless having basterds!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Ryanscool:
As I can tell, no. This is because the hardware just can not support it. Unless If they release a special version of the phone with LTE, then it will not happen (probably).
[Samsung Infuse 4G] milan03:
You can not just get on the LTE network if your phone doesn't have proper radio, not 700Mhz capable, etc. It's not like an old school AM radio so you can miraculously "tune in" to AT&T's LTE lol...
[Samsung Infuse 4G] :
There is the overly expensive apple-like-priced HTC JetStream which is LTE but it is a tablet.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Terrigno:
No. Just no. Everything about this thread. The answer is NO and its just NO in general. NO!!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] crispy1805:
I wonder what phones they will release for the 4G LTE network. There exists NONE currently and their leaked road-map does not show any. You would think something would come out along with the network this weekend.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] :
YES!

and as regards to the phones, Nexus Prime?? lol
