[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
Was just wondering: Do any of you guys ever save settings without applying them?

If not, I'm pondering merging the two functions into one, saving settings and applying them in one go (in which case I'd also do something different on HP 1.1)
[LG Optimus 2x] montresor60:
I always apply the new setting; never thought about just saving. I'd like to have the all-in-one save / apply option, although there's been some discussion about an updated pimpmycpu...

Trym; I was only kidding about the 'reboot' label!
[LG Optimus 2x] maxbaron:
Hi,

Is there a way to apply settings also after a reboot?

It seems that the deamon don't run at boot because I get always the message "deamon present but not running" (or something like this) when I start the app.

thx

Max

Topogigi 2.0+SP
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
The settings can be saved and applied at boot *if* the daemon is started. The daemon will not start if the script which starts it detects another overclocking app on your phone.

The packages it looks for are:

ch.amana.android.cputuner (CPU Tuner)

com.mhuang.overclocking (SetCPU)

org.freecoder.widgets.overclock (OverclockWidget)

com.antutu.CpuMasterFree (CPU Master)

...so if any of those packages are detected, the daemon will not run, or the settings get applied. Topogigi has also said the daemon will kill itself it if detects other OC apps. This is all in the FAQ for Topogigi.
[LG Optimus 2x] hakankarani:
thanks using with topo 1.9 sp1
[LG Optimus 2x] harrykh:
Would this work for topogigi 2.0 + sp1+ sp2 + HorsePower RC3?
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
I haven't tried RC3 yet, but unless something has changed it should, yes.
[LG Optimus 2x] Deathmo:
From spica HP thread.

That would be great if you could do this.

Ty m8. :)
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
An update will come during the day. Trying to decide whether I should always have a button there, which either takes you to the market to install the Undervolt app or starts it, or just a start-button.
[LG Optimus 2x] Deathmo:
I would appreciate a button in andrev oc,which starts the undervolt app. :D

Or mabey 2 buttons ? ^^

One to start and one for market?
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
Yeah, I'll go the simple route, I usually don't like apps which nag you about other apps, so I decided to not do it myself.

Update will be ready in a few hours.
[LG Optimus 2x] Deathmo:
Ty mate. :)
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
Has been published in market, will trickle out as google servers see fit.

I updated a few other things as well, I changed the text from "Awake" and "Asleep" to "Screen on" and "Screen off" to better describe what really happens, and I changed the defaults away from Topo's defaults to 216-800 for the "Screen off" mode.
[LG Optimus 2x] shpapy:
just got it great work , love the gui button, what happens if the app of OC is not installed ? do u get market link or ...?
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
No, I decided not to do that, so if it isn't installed there just won't be any button there.
[LG Optimus 2x] shpapy:
hmm..... why not help the users with a link?
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
They might not be interested in undervolting at all, and in that case the button/link would just be annoying. I assume anyone on Topogigi can find the UV app anyway, it's right there on the first page, and mentioned frequently in the thread.

(Personally I have a dislike for apps which constantly push other apps. Don't want to annoy people.)
[LG Optimus 2x] Deathmo:
Thanks, works great. :)
[LG Optimus 2x] Striatum_bdr:
Yes definitively a very good product, and a very interesting man to read. Thanks.
[LG Optimus 2x] waynefox:
I guess it will be a case of try it and see but does anyone know beforehand if this will work on MCR
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
If you install the daemon and a kernel which supports over-/under-clocking, then yes.

Remember that the daemon won't start if it detects other OC-apps, in which case the Andrev OC Adjuster will say it's present, but not running.
[LG Optimus 2x] waynefox:
Thanks. I didn't know the deamon was available seperate from any rom
[LG Optimus 2x] Stefan Gündhör:
Hi Trym, maybe you can help me, would be great!

I am making a new ROM based on Cyanogenmod 7 / Kang + Swiftextreme and can't get the andrev_oc deamon running! Setting the frequencies with Andrev OC Adjuster works though ... but it shows that the deamon is present and not running.

Now I fear that the frequencies might not change when screen state changes...

I have no other OC Tools installed, or is there sth. preinstalled in CM7 Kang?

Would really appreciate some help,

thank you!!

:)
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
I took a look at it.

andrev_oc works by 'cat'-ing /sys/power/wait_for_fb_wake" and "/sys/power/wait_for_fb_sleep". (Effectively sleeping until a screen-event happens.)

None of those are present in the SwiftExtreme kernel, so that's why it doesn't work. (Check the log and you see the following message: "Error: getting screen status.")

I think using andrev_oc on SwiftExtreme, and possibly the rest of the CM7-kernels simply won't work, but I don't know for sure, only way to be sure is to test I guess, or look at the sources.
[LG Optimus 2x] Stefan Gündhör:
Ahhh okay thanks, so do you think a running daemon is necessary or is it enough if the frequencies for screen on and screen off are set automatically on bootup?

I still can set frequencies with OC Adjuster, and if frequencies are changed with screen state, it shouldn't be necessary to have daemon running right?
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
I'm not sure I understand what you mean by "if frequencies are changed with screen state." That's the daemon's job, to set a different set of frequencies when the screen turns on or off. (The GUI saves the parameters to the deamon's config-files AND sets the frequency selected for Screen On, since the daemon does not set the frequencies when it starts, only on screen events.) If there'a another mechanism in place to do that, then yes, you don't need the daemon or the GUI.

(You say you can set the frequencies for screen off at bootup, where do you set that? I'm no expert in CM7-kernels, didn't know they had such a thing.)
[LG Optimus 2x] Stefan Gündhör:
Ahhh yeah I got that wrong, you can't just set screen off frequency on startup. Damn so I'll have to use another oc tool and most of them are completely overloaded or just not easy to handle. Too bad :/

But thank you for the quick responses!
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
You're welcome. As soon as I finish my current project I'll probably make a "proper" overclocking tool which does not depend on a daemon. (I made this just because someone already had made a ROM with andrev_oc in it, and it was a hassle to adjust it manually.)

Hi,

How do I disable audible notifications for Gmail. It seems that the new version doesn't have any Notifications settings at all. I was able to do it with older versions.

Thanks.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dataslycer:
im 100% sure you can. what version of gmail do u have?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goister:
It's the latest version. Anyway, I've found the settings. It's in the account settings rather than universal settings. Apparently now you can have per-account settings.

Thanks anyways!

I have been getting unusable 3G speeds for the past month. I can't get past 100 kb/s, average around 50-60. Is there anything I can tell Sprint to try and resolve this, or somehow talk them into getting out of the contract without the etf. I have never had a problem with Sprint, but if I can't use anything other than WiFi I shouldn't have to pay for it. I know I am not the only that has these speeds and it should be brought to their attention.
[HTC EVO 3D] Bigjim1488:
You can just continue to take it. Sprint is giving a lot of us the shaft with poor 3g speeds.
[HTC EVO 3D] fmedina2:
I rather not. **** will definitely hit the fan when these millions of iPhone users can't even watch a youtube clip unless they are on WiFi.
[HTC EVO 3D] BrianBaker:
Learn to deal with it or hit the Bricks man....Remember you don't have to deal with sprints crap..Just leave and go to another company.

Sent From my Warm Evo3D...
[HTC EVO 3D] fmedina2:
Imagine if everyone had that kind of attitude.

I don't mind Sprint. The point is that when I opened my lines 3G speeds were usable, not out of nowhere they are not. I shouldn't have to pay to cancel a contract when they have completely prevented me from using 3G. I am not the only one. Why should we just bend over and take it? If it wasn't for the persistent efforts of dedicated individuals HTC would have never provided an unlock for boot loaders (as ****ty as their technique is).
[HTC EVO 3D] james873:
I had the same problem and got a brand new phone due to bad motherboard its.worth checking out
[HTC EVO 3D] BrianBaker:
If by attitude you mean thinking rationally and with a little common sense(not directing this towards you specifically).

Sprint is not going to come to your home and put a 3g tower in your back yard so the smartest thing to do is take your business else where..I agree you should not have to pay to get out of your contract but what choice do you have?Either turn forced roaming on and use verizon towers until Sprint cancels your service for you.Or continue to try and get them to waive the ETF

So to keep on topic here..What can you do about 3G speeds? Nothing much really,you either have a good 3G signal or you dont.(barring your phone isn't defective)

Sorry man and good luck.
[HTC EVO 3D] shook187:
As popular as the new iPhone will be. I have a feeling it won't be as popular on the Sprint network as it wasn't on Verizon's
[HTC EVO 3D] Ruki_Uki:
With the speeds being so horrible, and all the problems we've been having with phones and cs, its only a matter of time till I leave sprint. My contract has no etf :D

Sent from my double barrel Shooter. BANG!
[HTC EVO 3D] Jjday7:
I'm on my way out also. I just ordered another phone with a competitor. I have had enough with sprint dropping the ball and making mistakes and making the customers pay for it. They can keep their $350.00 cancellation fee and all the other upcharges. If the new service works at my house and work, I am out. All these people that keep siding with sprint while being bent over really need to get a grip. I have been a customer for 7 years and to be treated this way is a joke. 3g speeds are nonexistent and anyone who says otherwise is lying to themselves. I rather be throttled than not be able to use my phone as a data device.

I have no 4g and hardly one bar at my house. 3g will only work on the airave. Even after all this they will not let me out of my contract. Even the customer service rep sided with me this morning. Yeah...I know i'm complaining and why don't I just leave. Well paying to get out should not be something I have to do when they are not providing there side of the deal. I have a $100.00 cancel fee and at this point it seems worth it to just bow out. If my other service doesn't work then I will fight till the fee is waived and ride contract free.
[HTC EVO 3D] fmedina2:
That's exactly what I have been trying to say.
[HTC EVO 3D] BrianBaker:
I feel ya and that's your choice..I get 2MB/sec on 3G with Sprint. But if I had the speeds you are getting I wouldn't put up with it,I'd just leave because they can't do anything for you..I'm not lieing to myself and defending Sprint.I have great 3G with sprint so I'm a happy customer and I too know I'm not the only one.

Is it really so bad to get kicked off a service that sucks so bad we have to resort to swapping PRL's back and forth to just get it to work though?

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] narflynn619:
From reading these two threads (THIS and THIS), I assume no one has yet discovered this. But if someone else had come up with this solution before me, then make yourself acknowledged now.

I just found this out last night when I was trying to get myself used to the new controls (BUT I REALLY CAN'T) because I haven't really finished this game before the new update came out... and jeez I bought it 5 months ago! Unluckily for me, the original installer disappeared so I requested another from Gameloft and they gave me the updated one with the stupid controls. This is for anyone still interested to play the game despite it being old, though a still good shooter for the Xperia PLAY imo.

I noticed that when using the Left Touchpad to walk while using the Right Touchpad to aim, it seems there is a conflict on the way the game registers the touch inputs that is why we have a ****ty aiming control.

RULES:

Use the D-Pad instead of the Left Touchpad to walk.

Do not use the Right Touchpad to aim. Instead, use the part in between the two touchpads: that Hourglass-like figure between them. They seem to mimic Rainbow Six controls. Refer to photo:

It's not a very good fix but it should do the trick. I had difficulty passing To the Embassy Mission because of the aiming controls, but it became so easy last night. Besides, you still have easy access to Reload, Switch Weapon, Grenade, and Use buttons instead of using the touchscreen.

Try it out for yourselves and let me know what you guys think. I'm using MC2 version 1.0.0 (that ****ty version) so it must work with you, too.

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] brochador:
MC2, the best game to use our touchpad.. OooOoOooppss.:D

Narf, you sure that the part in between will work on our control problem? I'll try this since I really want to finish this game.. But for now I'm thinking what game to delete first on my phone..:D
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Blessi360:
i second that

i second thaat post a video of you playing with those controls
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Rogue Leader:
I always use the D-Pad to move than then the right touch to aim, as long as I have a light touch and I use auto-target it works well enough to finish the game. Also I sometimes use the left trigger to bring up the gunsight and make fine adjustments on the fly.

If I am using a mounted gun of some sort I just use the touch screen with my right forefinger and hold the Play with my left hand, and click the right trigger with my left forefinger, works pretty well.

It could be better but its really not THAT bad, I play this game online almost daily and hold my own pretty well.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] narflynn619:
Well i guess it kinda depends on your preference though. I find it easier this way that's why i wanted to share it. ;)

Just finished the game 2day. Perfect MW clone. Haha

Try it RL & let me know how it is..:D
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] GetPatriotized:
It doesn't work for me :S

The area between the touch pads?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] TLRtheory:
Simple solution; revert back to 3.3.9.

The controls aren't great there either, but they're so much better it doesn't even make any sense.

How's Gameloft gonna upgrade and make something worse? Surely there's a play-tester there that checked this out and said "Um... guys? This controls like ass! You can't seriously expect people to accept this."
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Rogue Leader:
Actually, you'd be surprised.

Many many moons ago I was a play tester for Acclaim entertainment. They ported over a 3DO game to Sega Saturn and PSX called "D" that I went there to play test for a few hours. It was one of those old kinda linear first person puzzle adventure games. One of the first things I noticed and wrote down was that the game into included shots from the game, and a LARGE portion of them gave away the solutions to the puzzles in the game. I managed to beat the game in my first play through because of it. So of course when they asked for my feedback I said "well you gave away all the solutions to the puzzles in the intro, you need to either cut that whole part out or change it to not show puzzle solutions" A couple other testers who were there told them the same thing.

4 months later and the game was out on Saturn and I worked in a video game shop so I tried it out, and of course, there was the intro with all the puzzle solutions. They just never learn.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] TLRtheory:
Wow... that's absolutely depressing

(I remember that game, BTW! - My dad was a big Sega Saturn nut and he owned it... I think he still does too)
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] narflynn619:
well at least we're making things meet with what we have.. what else could we ask for when this is what they gave us? we're not game devs, we're just customers trying to enjoy things, and if the offer doesn't give what we expect, we improvise.. apart from that, it's what makes us the higher mammals.. :p

QUOTED FROM XPERIA Blog's Xperia PLAY – six month review

PS: I lost (didn't even know how) my 3.2.8 installer of the game so I made this thread to help out others like me. GL gave me 1.0.0 version when I asked them for an installer so if you have other solutions other than making things meet with the 1.0.0 version then better keep them to yourselves.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] TLRtheory:
That's a nice way of looking at it.

I'd say I agree with the notion that not enough developers are using the touchpads right, but the more rational-logical case seems to be that Gameloft's just being their usual incompetent selves...

...it's just very bad timing now since, like it or not, they are the biggest and most popular support the Xperia PLAY has.

Looking at a larger scale, most other devs ARE making good use of the analogs touch-pads. Samurai II Vengeance and Age of Zombies play like a dream. Dead Space is wonderful, AirAttack HD plays so smoothly that it made me get into a genre a typically don't like. DARK and Guerilla Bob work well, the Guns n Glory series and PewPew series flow very naturally.

Glu won't stop making games that are actually alternate Gun Bros skins for the life of them, but their games do work well with Xperia PLAY analogs. All the sports games control very nicely. Spacetime's MMOs play nicely, and Silvertree's quickly becoming a major player in the Xperia PLAY scene as well.

Gameloft actually has some good touchpad controls too. Sacred Odyssey force closes like it's goin' outta style, but damn that game feels good to play. BackStab, Assassin's Creed, Dungeon Hunter 2, Spider Man: Total Mayhem and especially AVATAR also have great controls.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] narflynn619:
AVATAR? I don't know... I'd have to disagree... :p
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Rogue Leader:
I was a big Saturn guy too, to the point I bought a Japanese one! Amazingly I was able to sell it for WAY more than I expected after the Saturn was discontinued and Dreamcast released.

Speaking of D though, Its funny back then because it had all that FMV it was like "ohh ahh" and sold pretty well, but also like many games of that era, it has aged quite poorly. Today if a console game was released like that, that literally could be played through in one 2 hour sitting (and was played in real time with no pause or save), the devs would be vilified!

[HTC EVO 3D] gk1984:
Not sure if this is what you're looking for but Beautiful Widgets in the market has themeable widgets and animations and a huge library to go through. You might be able to create your own fairly easy to work with it too. It's very very similar to the sense clock/weather widget.

I've switched to Beweather Pro though, It's not much different than sense's either but supports push weather alerts. No theming though
