[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] kershner25:
Hey all. Are there known issues with this game and Android emulation? I've played about a half an hour of the game just fine, better graphics than OOT and it sometimes even had a more consistent framerate. I was stoked! However, I experienced a few black screens during that time - the graphics would just go black but the game was still running (I could move around and hear my footsteps, music, etc). I could always just reload my previous save state and be fine. Now, however, I'm getting a black screen at an exact moment every time so I can't get around it. I just gave the moon tear to the deku scrub and the bell for the second day starts chiming. As soon as the second bell chimes I get a black screen and can no longer play.

Anyone hear of this happening? Is there a fix anywhere?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Nhialor:
try saving RIGHT before it and then try again, make a 2nd save while it happens, reload the save and see if it's still black. if not keep trying the save b4 to see if u can get through, happened to me with animal forest!
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] kershner25:
Well, I've gotten past it for now. Basically I just switched the GFX plugin to the 'original' one, screen didn't go black, waited a few seconds, then saved and switched back to the 'default' plugin.

Hopefully this will work every time.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] PhayzR:
I'm having this exact problem with N64oid v2.4.3 on Majoras Mask.

Im on Day 2 in Clock Town, and after loading my save-state, within 5-10 seconds of running around or even just looking in first-person, the screen renders solid black. I dont have any 'gfx plugin' settings to change, or anything of the sort. The only video/engine setting I have is to enable/disable fog, which doesnt fix it.

Are there any resolutions, or should I downgrade to 2.3? Would that give me access to these 'gfx plugins' you're talking about?

Hi all,

I seem to have some problems with setting my Wi-Fi Router. I sometimes need it for my work, so i can use that Wi-Fi for my portable. I can set it up, but theres no chance i can find the wi-fi. I already tried with different types of portables with no luck. When a guy from my work does it on his HTC HD2 then i can find his wi-fi? Anyone any idea?

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gsingh2011:
I have a couple questions about CWM and backups:

Is there a difference between flashing update.zip and installing a zip from the sdcard in CWM?

Also, let's say I make a change to boot.img and system.img and something goes wrong. Instead of flashing the backups of those two images from my computer to my phone using fastboot, can I just place them both in a zip file and install it from CWM? Would I need to include any other files?

How come a nandroid backup makes a system.ext4.tar and not a system.img? How do I turn that into a system.img?

How come I need unyaffs to read cache, data, and system.img files? I thought the filesystem was ext4 and not YAFFS?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marko!:
Flashing an update.zip looks for a file on the root of your sd called that and flashes it. Installing a zip let's you choose.

You need to put a few more files into the zip. An update script and binary

Update to romracers recovery and you can do an advanced restore just using certain parts of a nandroid.

That recovery also makes.. Img files rather than tars
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gsingh2011:
So I found some links about the update-script and I'll be reading those shortly, but after skimming them I didn't see any mention of the binary. Is the binary an executable version of the same script or something else? Any links?

So what your saying is I could just skip the update.zip stuff, extract the images from the zip, and use advanced restore to flash each image? Obviously more work but it's good to know if these two processes are equivalent.

Actually, I just made a recovery using romracer's CWM and boot and recovery are .img files while cache, data, and system are ext4.tar files. pds is .ext3.tar and .android_secure is .vfat.tar. So do you really get system files as .img files? And if so, what's wrong with my CWM? If not, the original question holds: why doesn't CWM make an image of each partition, and instead use a tar? For compression? How would I make this a flashable .img file?

And also the last question about ext4 and YAFFS is still there. Thanks.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marko!:
Most of those I'm really not sure. The update binary is the same for every zip. Just grab it from a rom or theme

I would go with the cwm zips. Way easier once you get them working.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghost_og:
I was just looking at this too. My old recoveries from before atrix4.1 was released were all .img files and the post atrix4.1 backups are .ext3.tar (except for boot.img and recovery.img). I'm on a stock deodexed GB ROM, so I don't have any ext4 partitions. I think he changed this with the newest update so CWM can recognize the ext type and mount them appropriately.

This post should hopefully clarify a bit more than I can. I'm relatively new to all this so I'm still learning different aspects of modding. I'm guessing you have some ext4's because you're running one of the newer custom ROM's?

[TouchPad General] dluik:
Hi All,

I am enjoying playing around improving the speed of my touchpad. It is now clocked to 1.7Ghz.

Surprisingly my iPad 1 loads web pages considerably quicker than my over-clocked touchpad (BBC.co.uk is a good example).

Given the hardware improvements this is a little surprising.

I have applied the recommended patches, just wondered if anyone out there has managed to tweak their TP so that it can out perform an ipad 1 for loading web pages?

Would be interested to know your thoughts.

Thanks

Dan
[TouchPad General] knightnz:
The stock browser is well known for being decidedly average.

Have you applied the download-speed patch amongst the others?
[TouchPad General] theusername:
Do you have the caching patch applied? That can make a big difference in the browser speed.
[TouchPad General] dluik:
thanks for the response. Been doing some reading and concluded that the webos browser / os just is not optimised for the hardware.

Madness really, A processor that runs almost twice as fast yet cant load BBC.co.uk as quick.

Sort of understand why HP decided to pull out - they have got so much to do to get on par with Apple..

its interesting reading that some say there overclocked TP is as fast as anything out there, i think they are kidding there selves.

Still, I love this new gadget - for £89 I am not moaning.. (but can see why they would never sell at iPad prices)

Thanks

Dan
[TouchPad General] dluik:
have pretty much all patches for the browser, but not tried the caching patch. I think there are a couple out there. I will have a play.

Its clear where the performance of this device sits Vs the current competition.... roll on Andriod Port :-)

cheers all
[TouchPad General] muyoso:
At 1.7ghz your Touchpad is running OVER 2x the clockspeed of the original iPad not to mention that it also has double the cores. The original iPad runs at 800mhz single core. I have made a few videos to dispute some people at Precentral that claim the Touchpad's browser is faster than their desktop computer's and other insane claims like that. All of them have my iPad considerably beating the Touchpad, especially on content heavy sites. Also this is with flash off and disabled on the TP and cache cleared on both.
[TouchPad General] icecreammm:
I have the Touchpad and my girlfriend the iPad2.

- Web surfing speed is much faster on the iPad2 even after tweaks enabled on Touchpad.

- Scrolling is smoother on iPad(2).

- Websites are displayed better and more functional on the Touchpad.

- Some JavaScript intensive stuff (like image lightboxes) runs smoother on the Touchpad, almost as smooth like on a computer. I don't know if all JS things run faster on the Touchpad.

In the end I think the iPad(2) has the better surfing experience for most people.

The web application for the Touchpad just seems badly programmed.
[TouchPad General] redbullcat:
It's the whole OS that's slow, not just the browser. Seems the few remaining webOS' engineer's didn't have the motivation to optimize it.

webOS is a great OS. It's just let down by its speed. If they made it open source, the community could improve it no end.
[TouchPad General] harveydent:
Is the BBC page filled with flash? The iPad may be loading faster since it doesn't have to load the flash
[TouchPad General] kreoXDA:
Someone (not OP) states above that they tested with Flash disabled and cache cleared, and TP still loses.

I can conform the same - TP with patches/tweaks and overclocked to 1.5 GHz is considerably slower than any Android devices I could compare it to (2 phones, 2 tablets). I am actually considering dumping it because it is SO slow, I just can't use it. Try starting up the 3.0.2 stock calculator - it takes a few seconds for it to start!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It should be lightning fast! When I need to run a couple of easy numbers, it is quicker for me to do it myself than to wait for the TP to start up the calculator app.

If there is no reliable android port that runs FAST, I consider the $150 WASTED. :(
[TouchPad General] ilive12:
Hopefully the browser will be on par with the hardware once we get android. Also i know the touchpad has a slow browser, but i herd it has a much better range than the iPad. As in if you brought the iPad to where your out of wifi range, the touchpad will still work, and work almost as quick as when it was in closer range.

Can't test this out though, my touchpad hasn't arrived yet, but it just shipped 2 days ago, so it should be here soon :)
[TouchPad General] muyoso:
I haven't done much browsing on my Touchpad, since the browser really annoys me, but the worst example of the slowness that I have found is loading Engadget.com. I can load Engadget.com and then tap on a story and load that on my iPad before the Touchpad can load the Engadget.com main page.

iPad on the left and Touchpad on the right:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NCmUyADNN4w

Here is the Touchpad on the left and the iPad on the right loading Politico.com. The iPad loads the entire page, WITH ADS, before the Touchpad loads a single element without ads. That is pathetic HP.

[TouchPad General] ricoishere2:
You all (and anyone who owns a Touchpad) needs to install the "disable cache" patch found on precentral.net. It will dramatically improves the browser speed by 40-50%, I'd say. You will need Preware installed to install Internalz pro from Preware. Then Internalz pro will install patch for you. Reboot after patch installs. The most important posts of the thread below are #1, #59 and #85.

here is link to thread.

[TouchPad General] dluik:
have done this - thanks

sadly ipad1 still comfortably out performs my TP...

thanks Dan
[TouchPad General] ricoishere2:
One being faster than the other is less as important than one being comfortable with the speed itself. Point being, the Touchpad with the "disable cache" patch makes the browsing experience very enjoyable on the Touchpad. My Volvo 850R is not as fast as a Ferrari but its very fast and fun to drive to me. The patch improves the browsing speed greatly and anyone who has a Touchpad will benefit.

it's not an even exchange, the NS4g is $49.99 and the E4GT is $199.99 so you would have to pay the difference ($150.00) plus the activation fee
[Epic 4G General] djjroc007:
I would put money on the ns4g getting ics before we even get gingerbread for the og epic 4g......
[Epic 4G General] DiGi760:
That depends. Sprint recently got a little more hardcore about their $35 restocking fee. I think you can still do one free "customer satisfaction" exchange within the 14 day window (30 day window for you). If they don't charge you the restocking fee, you only have to pay the difference in price between the two phones, which I believe is $50 right now, but Best Buy has different pricing than other stores.

The $36 activation/upgrade fee should have been charged to your account when you got the Nexus. They won't charge you $36 again for a swap.
[Epic 4G General] captblaze:
If you return the device and reactivate an older phone you shouldn't be charged a restocking fee or activation. If not you are stuck

[HTC EVO 3D] oldjackbob:
What you're observing is normal behavior from your battery. It has nothing to do with the kernel, at least nothing that swapping kernels will fix, because that's the way the phone is designed to operate. When the battery gets to 100%, it starts discharging even though it's still plugged in, until it gets to 95%, then starts charging back to 100% again, and repeats the process, which is supposed to keep the long-term battery life from suffering if you keep the phone plugged in all the time.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Derek0228:
Hi guys, I'm just gonna go straight to the point... I hate Tegra. It's so weak. I can't bear the fact that my phone (HTC Sensation) is better than my tablet! My phone can play 1080p flawlessly, while my GTab stutters on 720p! The GTab is a beautiful device, and I love honeycomb, but why the heck did Samsung use Tegra instead of Exynos on this tab? :(

I bought this tab a week ago, my question is, could I take it back to Best Buy and wait for the Tab 8.9? Or they don't care about buyer's regret?

Thanks in advance btw.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] hbkmog:
I think tab 8.9 uses Tegra 2 as well? I think you might as well wait for the next-gen tabs considering they will be out by the end of this year.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] K Rich:
Yep, 8.9 is still Tegra 2, so you might as well wait for the next gen tabs.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] 05GT:
You can take it back. They won't even charge you a restocking fee. However, the 8.9 uses the exact same processor, so what would be the point :confused:
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Derek0228:
Oh. I thought the Tab 8.9 used an Exynos processor. Hmmm guess ill keep my current tab. Thanks guys :)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Step666:
The Tab 7.7 uses Exynos clocked at 1.4GHz.

The standard Tab 8.9 uses the same 1GHz Tegra2 as your existing Tab but the LTE version will uses something else - it may or may not be Tegra2 (though I think not) but whatever it is, it'll be clocked at 1.5GHz
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] K Rich:
I would assume Qualcomm since Exynos doesn't support LTE, correct?

Sent from your mothers house.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Step666:
That would be a reasonable guess, yeah - especially since they seem to be sticking Qualcomm CPUs into the LTE Galaxy S2 variants.

The other possibility would be one of TI's OMAP chips but I don't see that personally.

I guess another option is that they could just be OCing Tegra2 SoCs but again it's unlikely.

The Qualcomm chips have the advantage that they produce variants with no modems which would allow Samsung to use whatever preferred LTE radio chip manufacturer they have an agreement with.

These APQ Snapdragon models are targeted more towards tablets and, I believe, have more bus bandwidth and their RAM clocked a fair bit faster than the MSM8X60 CPUs they're based on, so the performance should be pretty decent if that's what they're using.

I have been trying to follow dubsx guide for installing his awesome custom boot animations but the PB31IMG.zip file keeps coming up with wrong image during HBOOT.

iowabowtech suggested a different method that works.

Using Root Explorer, make a backup file on your sdcard. Go to system/customize/resource and move the VZW_Bootanimation.zip and the VZW_Droid.mp3 to the backup folder (just so you can return it to the stock boot animation if you want)

Go to the custom boot animation zip you want and move it to system/customize/resource You can also use a custom mp3 file (up to 30-40 seconds long I believe) and place it in the resource file too.

Long press your animation file and rename it to VZW_Bootanimation.zip If you are changing the mp3 file rename it to VZW_Droid.mp3

It worked for me running the rooted Inc_Gingerbread_Official.zip found here on XDA.

Please correct me if I am wrong somewhere with this method.
