Some of the things have some merit. I do them for power saving on my Linux machines. For others ... just can't say.

@nop

I guess the wifi issue is related with screen timing because;

First, i set the wifi sleep policy to "never" but the wifi disconnects.

Then i set screen timeout to "off" and the wifi never disconnects.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Lucifer4obg:
It is related to the deep_sleep state of the phone. If you don't switch your display off your phone does not go in to deep sleep.

I just came back from vacation. I want to make a full.clean install.

What is the latest DSC beta version?
[Streak 5 Android Development] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Look in the first post.
[Streak 5 Android Development] TiGuy82:
I was asking because on the first post the link goes to the 1.1 beta 2 version and _nop_ released the beta 3 after...
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
Sorry, I fixed the link.

1.1 well be released when I have time to write and test DSC Battery tool to work with new Phoenix Universal kernel (to enable battery gauge correction for users with extended batteries - now 4800 Mugen should be just fine).

So test 3 + Phoenix Universal + planned DSC Battery = 1.1
[Streak 5 Android Development] TiGuy82:
_nop_,

I'm having freezes with 3G (don't use WiFi at all) once in a while when using any software that request internet my DS5 freezes.

I did a full clean install, DSC 1.0 + beta 3 + Universal Kernel.

I uploaded the log, what happened in this case was:

- I opened Skype and I got a freeze while signing in.

- Had to remove the battery and start DS5 again.
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
TiGuy82, let's check with this kernel (less UV):

[Streak 5 Android Development] TiGuy82:
I will give it a try.
[Streak 5 Android Development] TiGuy82:
nop,

what is is different on this last kernel that you sent to me? My freezes stopped to happen.

Thank you very much!!
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
Simple - much less undervoltage.

Now i'm thinking about config for undervoltage :)
[Streak 5 Android Development] TiGuy82:
I just have to tell you... 24hours with no freeze! ;)

That's a good idea about config for undervoltage because not all DSC can handle the same undervoltage
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
1.1 test 4

OK, let's continue.

DalvikVM returned to Nexus S one.

hunderteins recommented parameters to DalvikVM - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1622433

Updated DSConfig.

Undervolting basically configurable via DSConfig (TiGuy82, i want your feedback on this, with disabled UV) - that was no easy way, but should work.

WiFi fixer refined.

Looks like everything is fine, except Mugen battery config, but right now i don't feel motivated to write it (you still can enable 4800 by adding

echo 1 > /sys/module/qsd_battery/parameters/use_mugen

somethere in postboot.

Still need to add config for uncap patch.

[Streak 5 Android Development] TiGuy82:
I will test the UV option for sure, I have two days of rest and I will be spending my time on DS5!

I put UV ON, I will give you the feedback if I have freeze or not. Or are you waiting for another feedback regarding the UV option?
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
Sure. I would like to hear about stability with and without UV. Basically, you shouldn't have any without UV.
[Streak 5 Android Development] DaniLoveSky:
_n0p_,

You mentioned once that your next phone of choice would be Panasonic Eluga Power. Could you elaborate why this phone over Samsung Galaxy Note or LG Optimus Vu please? Is it because of (relatively) small size and water-resistant body?

I nearly set my mind on Note, mostly because I did not know of big-screen competitors before your post, but also because of a better (brighter, bigger, gorilla glass) screen. However, you opinion matters a lot to me... Here is a quick list of features for the reference:

Samsung Galaxy Note (N7000 model):

* CPU/GPU: dual-core 1.4 GHz ARM Cortex-A9 / Mali-400MP GPU

* RAM/Flash: 1GB / 16Gb

+ Screen/Resolution: 5.3" Gorilla Glass Super AMOLED / 800×1280 (285 ppi)

* Camera Main/Front: 8M / 2M

+ Battery: 2500 mAh Li-Ion

- Size/Weight: 147 x 83 x 9.7 mm / 178 g

* Stock Android: Gingerbread

* Extras: pen (fits inside the body)

Panasonic Eluga Power:

+ CPU/GPU: dual-core 1.5 GHz Snapdragon S4 / Adreno 225

* RAM/Flash: 1GB / 8Gb

* Screen/Resolution: 5" OLED / 720×1280

* Camera Main/Front: 8M / 1.3M

- Battery: 1800 mAh Li-Ion

+ Size/Weight: 136 x 70 x 9.6 mm / 133 g

+ Stock Android: Icecream

+ Extras: dust- and water-resistant body

LG Optimus Vu:

* CPU/GPU: dual-core 1.5 GHz Scorpion / Adreno 220

* RAM/Flash: 1GB / 16Gb

* Screen/Resolution: 5" HD-IPS / 768×1024 (256 ppi, 4:3 aspect ratio)

* Camera Main/Front: 8M / 1.3M

* Battery: 2080 mAh Li-Ion

* Size/Weight: 139.6 x 90.4 x 8.5 mm / 168 g

* Stock Android: Gingerbread

* Extras: pen (no place-holder in the phone)
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
Hey, get it if you like it!

Screen and design is actually the things I dislike in Note (not to start flame, just my personal opinion). Same about Galaxy III.

I'd go for good TFT or IPS, but not AMOLED.

And it's a bit too wide (same about Vu)

I got used to Streak's slick design, so i'd get something similar, but more powerful.

Anyway, my Streak feels fine now :)
[Streak 5 Android Development] ivantastic:
what kernel it is?

is it a newest one? is it worth to try? (i'm still using min3 till now ;))

thanks sergei :)
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
ivantastic, that's kernel with default voltage, you won't like it :)

Looks like some Streaks don't like undervolting, so I've made it configurable (in 1.1 test 4).

With UV enabled 1.1 test 4 should be voltage identical to min3.

Still testing myself.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Dude_Virus:
If the dual core 1.4 arm cortex and the 1.5 dual core s4 are compared, the arm cortex gives a better perf. I personaly liked the note as i used my friend's for a while ..however 2 flaws 1) screen is having a lot of green tint to it...lot of green pixels so there is a lot of green which hurts the eye. 2) its gets heated up quite a bit, u can feel the heat. I played nfs for like 35 to 40 min and it got quite hot.
[Streak 5 Android Development] menting:
Don't think a dual core Cortex A9 is even close to a dual core S4 (A15 class)

the dual core S4 should be in the range of the Tegra 3 (quad core A9)
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
I'm waiting for samples of tablets with Boxchip A10 1.2Ghz (Cortex A8 clones) with Mali 400.

Remote Antutu results shows that math is about 1.5-2 times slower than our Streak cpu, but fast 3D compensates it, so results nearly identical.

So you might be right - Snapdragon easily outperforms Cortex (at least A8)
[Streak 5 Android Development] TiGuy82:
_nop_,

I can confirm that if I enable UV my DS5 start freezing again... I just set it to Off and I will keep testing it.

WiFi Woes

With the last couple of versions I've had WiFi issues. If I reboot with WiFi running it will boot with WiFi up and good - green icons. If I reboot with WiFi off, it will boot with 3G up and good - green icons.

If I have WiFi up and switch it off, the 3G icons go white and no signal. If I have 3G up and switch WiFi on, the WiFi icon appears and all go white. All the WiFi tools say that I'm connected to my router, but GMail says 'no connection' and nothing will respond.

I've tried WiFi Reassociate and WiFi Fixer but can't seem to get anything to work where I can switch into and out of 3G/WiFi without reboots. Is this a common scenario?
[Streak 5 Android Development] cdzo72:
That pretty much sounds just like what I get
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
p_razzi, cdzo72:

Let's check this:

Clear contents of /data/misc/dhcp folder.

Disable built-in Wifi fixer script in DSConfig.

Disable UV in DSConfig.

Having a "white" connection - ping 8.8.8.8 to check if connection works.

Step by step, so we could narrow it down.

Thanks

Sergio
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
I like Swype :) And exactly this version. It's uninstallable, so you may choose any kbd you like.

More, you can add your preffered apk's (and remove unneeded staff) to /system/etc/dsc_firstboot.zip, so they will autoinstall as user apps after factory reset.
[Streak 5 Android Development] zAm1987:
I agree with n0p. This version of swype is my favorite keyboard. Tried newer versions of swype and other keyboards, but always came back to this version :)

Currently I'm testing the disabled UV option, because in the last time my Streak rebooted randomly quite often, so maybe this will help (changing innerSD would be my next step as it's not app related). Will report after a bit of usage.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Lucifer4obg:
OK.

The data connection issue just showed up. I'm with beta 4. The phone was connected to WiFi (allmost with no hangs, just once last night). When I got out of home I switched the 3G on and WiFi off. It worked.

Now I got home and tried to switch the WiFi on and 3G off ... but the WiFi options in the menu just greyed out with no effect.

Rebooted with no data connection and it connected to the WiFi, but now I can't activate 3G connection: Data enabled option is checked, but that hase no effect. If I try to open Access point names a messge stating "PreloadedNetworkSettings is still at work".
[Streak 5 Android Development] TiGuy82:

Thanks for your feedback, I just wondering if you missed the newest version! eheh

I uninstalled Swype... but you said that was uinstallable. :confused: Now I want it back again! :p

1.1 test 5

DSC v1.1 test 5

Quick ref since 1.0:

Camera now has flash mode.

Phoenix Universal kernel.

Built-in WiFi fixer - configurable via DSConfig.

CPU undervolting - configurable via DSConfig.

Mugen (and possibly any) extended battery support (configurable via module parameters - /sys/module/qsd_battery/parameters/use_mugen )

FPS uncap patch (by hPa) (configurable via module parameter - /sys/module/mddi_auo/parameters/t2_register - 444 default, 367-361 will give you about 55 fps).

hunderteins proposed Dalvik VM dex parameters.

Dalvik VM switched back to Nexus S (2.3.6).
​

Wipe dalvik-cache and battery stats.

WiFi/3G Switching

No firewall. Can I ask what the white icons actually mean?

To reiterate, if I have an active 3G connection and enable WiFi, the icons turn white and I have no access. If I then reboot and startup with WiFi already active I do have WiFi access although the icons remain white. So there's no problem with getting an external connection through the router. If I then switch WiFi off I have no connection as if WiFi is not releasing something.

I can get both WiFi and 3G but only through a complete reboot after having switched to the 'target' connection state.
[Streak 5 Android Development] khoacoi:
Hi n0p,

After installing update 1.1 beta 5, my streak can not boot, it was stuck in dsc logo.

Could you please advice?
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
khoacoi, sure.

If you don't get to the part with blinking leds (zipalign script), try to reflash the update.

If this doesn't help -

Flash 1.0, then 1.1 test 5 - but don't do factory reset, your data will be preserved.
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
White icon means you have no connection to Google services and basically that you don't have an active connection.

Are you sure you not blocked on router?
[Streak 5 Android Development] p_razzi:
Then I'm even more confused - I rebooted with WiFi on and can now get to web sites, even with white icons. If I switch WiFi off, the 'H' reappears for 3G, but icons remain white and no connection.

Switch WiFi back on ... 'H' disappears, WiFi symbol appears, all icons stay white ... connection resumed. So definitely no router blocking!

EDIT: I'm using my corporate WiFi - it *is* possible that some services are blocked but not the overall web connection which might explain the white icons, I can confirm that tonight when I get home. It doesn't help with not being able to switch WiFi/3G though.

Hi _n0p_ and thanks for your job.

I'm testing your test5 release. Till test4 everything was ok, with test5 flashed it reboots continuously. Wipe dalvik cache and battery stats and in DSCconf Uv is off, without success. What can I do?
[Streak 5 Android Development] p_razzi:
Is this for the white icons with connectivity because I think I can explain that one? Or will this help with diagnosing not being able to switch between WiFi and 3G without a reboot?
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
Hm. This might be related to new dalvik vm parameters. Would you take build.prop from test3 for example?

Also, adb logcat

might give some ideas.

It's for diagnosis of the 3g problem.

yes i am using the mugen value parameter in the postboot, but i am not on the test 4 or 5..just have the universal kernel on the 1.0. changing the dalvik optimization settings cause root issues plus sometimes while working the buttons flash and the phone reboots

---------- Post added at 02:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:39 AM ----------

For me whenever there were white icons it means there is either no internet or the google services r not connected cause if i check my gtalk says signing in. I do sometime face the same issue tht u r having. it usually works good and whenever i leave for work my edge comes on automatically with green icons once i am out of my wifi range. Same happens if i turn off my wifi. but sometime when it doesnt work either the edge symbol doesnt come on or if it comes on it stays gray with no internet. Airplane mode sometimes help but mostly a reboot is needed.

If you get to DSC logo, it's good and Streak should be identified by PC.
