Just passing by and wishing a happy new year to anyone in the Streak 5 community.

Hoping to meet many of you guys , esp the devs at the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 forum, an amazing device , been enjoying it for months now. I was kinda fanatic about the streak 5 but the note2 IS a great upgrade and experience. I think it is the natural upgrade step for the streakers.

Again , wish everyone here a happy and prosperous new year.

Thank you for everything guys.

Please keep an eye out for a few days !

a big thanks for all your hard work nop......even if you upgrade to newer phone.....you could still do alittle work on the streak sometimes : )
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
I'm not leaving yet :)

Only phone i'd consider is Nexus 4, but it's not available here.

Note 2 is too wide for me. Also, battery life of this two devices doesn't seem great.

And Streak with Mugen battery beats all competitors on working from one charge.

And using it only for few calls due to screen problem extends battery life even more :)

[Streak 5 Android Development] chriscullen42:
Well I am glad to hear it!! I recently installed 2.2 after returning to Stock 369 ROM from DSC 1.5. I noticed that the general phone performance was better in most regards to the laggy old Froyo and the battery also seems better than 1.5 and no worse than the 369 Froyo. I have had a couple of reboots and a phone freeze over the past week or so, but not happening often enough to be a big issues.

Anyway, the reason for my post is just when you have a moment I tried to connect a bluetooth keyboard (yes, I know that is sad beyond belief - but I bought the thing and want to use it) and I notice that it does not seem to work at all with the rom. It did work with an earlier ROM (360 I think) but I wondered if there was any reason why DSC would just ignore it. It connects fine in the bluetooth manager - just nothing happens after that.

Anyway, feel free to completely disregard this post as this is a very minor issue ;) Loving the new rom and the extra features - though I have not changed any settings at all from the default install. If you'd like me to do something to help track down the reboot/freeze let me know.

Hope you get your new steak soon.
[Streak 5 Android Development] abauer:
I can talk for the Note2 only . The battery life of this monster is excellent , once you strip off all the unecesary services at boot . As for the width size , dont mix it with note 1 as note 2 is almost same size as streak 5 and even feels smaller in hand , the only drawback I found was , THE PRICE .

Hi.

How do I get back the old SuperUser App?

Is the Traveller ICS Theme working perfectely?

[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
There might be a corresponding driver missing - but do kbd and streak see each other at least?
[Streak 5 Android Development] chriscullen42:
Yes, the Steak does see and connect to the keyboard, and it even displays the little keyboard icon in the bluetooth settings screen. After that - nothing! I can hit any key and it has no effect at all. I did try one or two of the apps that are supposed to help with connecting BT keyboards and they did not work either.

Oh, another very quick question - is there any screen capture function built in to dsc? I just wondered as I know some roms I used in the past did have - I am currently using an app but if there is a way to get it without that would be good.

Many thanks for getting back to me :)
[Streak 5 Android Development] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Perfectly? I honestly don't believe a theme is ever truly "perfect". As of 3.04 I've finally (and definitively) solved the one major problem I was having with it: check boxes. I'm sure there are more graphics changes I could make but at this point though it's an issue of aesthetics rather than functionality. I'd like drop down buttons such as the one that calls the ringtone dialogue box to be ringed in blue, but such a change is of low priority to me. I focused on making sure those blasted check boxes could be seen.

Do realize one other thing: I did solicit feedback, and if you found something that didn't work properly or didn't look right, you could have shot me a PM. Especially as I requested feedback from the people who downloaded it. I use the theme myself (naturally), and I spent the time trying to come up with a workable solution. But it's not easy working in a vacuum.

[Streak 5 Android Development] ammujee:
Yes, you can but please make sure to format from both dell menu and streakmod recovery. Install dsc 2 base rom first then update dsc 2.2. Nandroid recommended.
[Streak 5 Android Development] cnn1:
Thanks a lot!
[Streak 5 Android Development] chriscullen42:
Hey, in my case it's ALWAYS worth asking the obvious :) Basically, after the keyboard connects there are no options anywhere to select it in the keyboard settings screen or on the input method menu. That said, I am sure that the keyboard did not need to be selected before, it just worked. In fact, it was confusing as the on screen keyboard kept showing up even though I was typing on the BT Keyboard. I did get a NULL keyboard device installed to fix that before. On this ROM, the keyboard simply does nothing after it has connected to the phone.

Yeah, perfect is a pretty tall order for sure!! I must say, though, the theme is really very good indeed - I am loving it and now consider it part of my 'must have' items on my Streak. I really like the numeric battery indicator and the dialer screen absolutely shines - very nice! My Only wish for the theme is that it was orange :) - No, really, I love the blue - but I am a huge orange (the colour that is) fan and you just never get a really polished theme in orange! So, if you're looking for something to do - that would be awesome!! ;) But anyone who is interested, this theme is great and well worth a try! ;)
[Streak 5 Android Development] pjg_pigeon:
+1 for the orange. Cmon you hatters.

DSC 2.2 not a stable on my Streak as 1.5 was

Hi _Nop_

Just to let you know that I have been using 2.2 for a week or so. I notice that I get quite a few random reboots on the device. They occur 2-3 times a day, and seem particularly likely in the morning when I try and wake the device up. I have had a reboot happen in the middle of a phone call too. I did use 1.5 for a while, and that did not have the problem - so I was wondering if there was anything I can look at to try and get a handle on the problem? I think my phone is fussy and prone to problems of this kind whenever I install any custom ROM, I know that DSC 1.1 and 1.2 where pretty unusable as the phone would reboot every 20 mins or so. Are there any logs etc I can look at (or get someone who actually understands them to look at them ) to try and see where the fault lies?

I know you're in the middle of a 'no Streak' period - so no worries if you cannot answer for a while ;) Apart from the odd reboot the ROM is excellent and is still better than the 369 softbank rom. I am using the 369 baseband so I wonder if that may be the issue?

It is very promising that n0p will get a second-hand streak 5: I found a second-hand unlocked streak 5 on a Chinese smart phone forum, and contacted the seller. The price is about 850RMB (roughly 134USD), and the seller is willing to help n0p by lowering the price. I already asked the seller to contact Daneel_SE.

We have two issues now: 1). how to send the phone to n0p and what is the fee? 2). how can we pay to the seller.

If these two problems are solved, then hopefully n0p will come back to our community. I'm really reluctant to see n0p leaving us...

please do come back...
[Streak 5 Android Development] Daneel_SE:
The seller has the address and is checking the cost, so that should be sorted shortly.

Easiest is if he registers a user with paypal and just send me a bill through paypal. Later he can transfer the money into a bank or purchase some new toys :highfive:

If _n0p_ would have wanted we could have had a replacement screen already on its way to him.

_n0p_ opted to step up his development and getting a second device. I don't think that sounds like someone about to leave the community?:cool:
[Streak 5 Android Development] rainsia:
Unfortunately, paypal is not supported in China, it is very difficult to register a paypal account. We have to think about another way.

By leaving the community, I meant the Dell Streak Community. Without n0p, the streak 5 must have died already.
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
System shows mem "as it would if i kill all cached apps"

zdbox (dunno, but anyway) - shows current real state.

criscullen42, as for BT - would you get the log, there might be something.

As for stability - step by step:

1. Disable CPU kick.

2. Ensure governor is set to conservative.

3. disable UV

4. Raise min freq to 245MHz

5. Disable CPU kick.

6. Set NoSync hack to off.

[Streak 5 Android Development] DaniLoveSky:
_n0p_,

Could you sum up the current consensus about the latency improvements caused by /dev/random patch please? What is the "real" reason for speed boost? I followed the discussion for couple weeks, but now lost in all the opinions.
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
There's no consensus :)

My opinion - does nothing except giving a load to CPU/IO keeping it up.

No proof it works either.

And yes, i gave it a test - didn't notice any improvements.

But nothing bad to author of that idea - it's the fanboys who flooding the thread.

--

Also, main "proof point" - "it's UI response increase, it cannot be measured" is invalid.

Everything can be measured.

For example, as part of UX investigation some time ago i've added code to rdesktop to measure RDP latency times and it worked just fine.

What especially gives me laughs - how can GSIII/Note/Other high end even have lags?
[Streak 5 Android Development] chriscullen42:
Not too sure how to get a log - I'll have a look around for the instructions and send it over when I find them!

Thanks very much for your help and suggestions - I'll let you know how it goes. :)

I'll download and apply if I still have issues after the above - once again, many thanks!

fuse support and others

Hi there,

sorry for the late reply.

As said before, I'm using the .config given in /proc/config.gz, which already has the option

CONFIG_LOCALVERSION="-DSC-Team-Phoenix"

Hence, I'm still at the same place: even when using this config and using the kernel source from github I'm not able to compile a compatible fuse.ko module. In addition, if I flash the the new compiled kernel (with fuse support included) then NON of the dhd.ko module is accepted because the kernel version does not agree (non the old dhd.ko provided in rom and neither the new compiled one). Then my question is, if I compile such source of the kernel using the .config file provided in the 2.2 rom, If I do not change anything shoulnd't I get exactly the same kernel? It seems not to be the case... Where could I find exactly the same source that was used to compile the default kernel?

In addition I'm having the following issues (using the default kernel):

1) Even with the "None" option in DSConfig, the display wakes up when long pressing the headset button. This is terribly annoying because this is the option that I'm using to increase volume through Headset Button Controller.

2) I'm having a lot of random display wakes up and then the display does not torn off. No need to say that this implies a huge waste of battery....

3) The device constantly loses wifi connection when display is off. Of course I'm using the proper wifi policy options (I guess!), both in settings and in DSConfig.

Any suggestions to any of my problems?

Many thanks for your help.
[Streak 5 Android Development] cnn1:
Yes, I did do that. But I found that I have to grant SU access to this app first. I don't know why this not automatic since when we install

I'm sure someone can help you, but more than likely they're going to shake their head. After all, they read the first post in the thread. Did you?
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
Github has the sources i consider stable.

What is the output of /proc/version from your kernel?

For me, fuse.ko as loadable simply hangs, so it probably needs to be built-in.

1. Can't confirm. Works as expected for me. Did you save and reboot?

2. Precise timesync enabled in ClockSync? Other alarm wake?

3. Long known problem. Try increasing WiFi timeout.

Fix permissions has nothing to do with root actually :)

I personally didn't find a working way to control FM volume.
[Streak 5 Android Development] hunderteins:
not wrote, merely fixed major bugs in it. It's better than the old streak-radio app, but for more features like volume control or rds go to Spirit FM Radio.

[Streak 5 Android Development] enbeto:
Hi,

many thanks for your fast answer.

I have used both the master and experimental branches from github and, after flashing the kernel, I'm getting the following in /proc/version:

Linux version 2.6.35.14-DSC-Team0.14+ (root@cb-luboubuntu) (gcc version 4.4.1 (Sourcery G++ Lite 2009q3-67) ) #20 PREEMPT Wed Dec 7 11:52:46 EET 2011

which does not coincide with the kernel version coming in DSC 2.2:

Linux version 2.6.35.14-DSC-Team-Phoenix (n0p@u28) (gcc version 4.7.2 20120910 (prerelease) (crosstool-NG linaro-1.13.1-2012.09-20120921 - Linaro GCC 2012.09) ) #536 PREEMPT Mon Dec 24 13:17:31 EET 2012

When I flash the new compiled kernel with the fuse support built in, fuse works (I can mount file systems through ssh using sshfs) but non of the available dhd.ko modules work, neither the default one nor the fresh compiled with the new kernel, due to the different versions. In addition DSConfig does not launch.

It seems to me that I'm using a wrong source to compile the kernel. Is the one in github the one used to obtain the default kernel in DSC 2.2? If not, do you know where could I obtain it? Could it be due to the fact that I'm using a too old version of gcc?

Regarding other issues:

1) When long pressing the headset button the default music player launches (and hence the display wakes up). Any idea on how to disable that? It seems like a very stupid question, but I haven't been able to do it...

2) The random display waking up issue is not really annoying and is not occurring really frequently so I'm not really worried about it right now.

3) I already tried increasing the wife timeout value to 30 minutes before asking; sorry, I forgot to mention it. It did not work as I was still losing wifi connection when I turn off the display. Very strange... Even when using this wifi reassociate daemon...

I would like to comment you another issue:

4) When I plug an usb flash device (using the modified OTG cable) it mounts by itself on /mnt/usbdisk. However, I can't umount it, it gives just an "failed" error message. If I unplug it with the display turned on, the streak freezes and I have to remove the battery. If I do it with it turned off, then nothing happens, but I don't think this should be the proper way to remove my usb pendrive....

Any suggestions?

Thanks a lot!

@suirs: Did you completely reset the Streak, as described in the links given in the first post? If I were a Magic 8-ball, my answer would be, "Signs point to no."

[Streak 5 Android Development] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
No. Because you are unwilling to use the tools on the site to find the answer yourself. You're expecting us to spoonfeed you the answer, and at least from me that's not going to happen.

At this point, I would have you read my signature, but clearly reading is not something you want to do. Neither is searching before you post, which is rule number 1 on this site. Therefore, as of this moment, I'm finished dealing with you. If someone else wants to get suckered into giving you the answer instead of encouraging you to find it yourself, that's up to them.

[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
Switch videomode to MDP in DSConfig.

Strephon Alkhalikoi is right, it's covered in Quick solutions and DSConfig itself.

You definitely doing it wrong. Does root@cb-luboubuntu give you any guess? Build date?

1. None i know of.

2. No random wakeups. It's fully waked by some alarm.

3. Dunno, i can provide wakelock patched driver if you wish.

4. Correct unmount way is:

/system/xbin/busybox umount /mnt/usbdisk/.android_secure
/system/xbin/busybox umount /mnt/usbdisk/

If system freezes on eject - make sure nothing uses the drive. Double-check.
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
Swap tryouts.

First, i must say i don't like the idea of swap on Streak.

But if you want to play, flash attached zip.

It contains kernel with swap support, updated lowmemorykiller and zram(snappy based) module.

Sources:

https://github.com/cosmicdan/semc-kernel-msm7x30-cosmic

http://jhulst.com/publicsvn/captivate/kernel/linux-2.6.29/drivers/staging/android/lowmemorykiller.c

http://www.faircode.eu/freexperia/patches/kernel_lowmem60.patch

http://www.faircode.eu/freexperia/patches/kernel_oom_nokill.patch

To create 32M swap file on internal SD:

#!/system/bin/sh
# n0p - enable swap
busybox dd if=/dev/zero of=/data/swap.file count=0 bs=1 seek=32M
losetup /dev/block/loop7 /data/swap.file
mkswap /dev/block/loop7
swapon /dev/block/loop7

To create swap on 128M zram device (included in postboot):

#ZRAM
export DSC_ZRAM=128
insmod /system/lib/modules/zram.ko
echo $(($DSC_ZRAM*1024*1024)) > /sys/block/zram0/disksize
mkswap /dev/block/zram0
swapon /dev/block/zram0
#Use half swapmem to fool lmk
echo $(($DSC_ZRAM*256/2)) > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/fudgeswap

Using swap may increase amount of apps stored in RAM, but produce serious lags on task switching and OOMs.

Share your exp,

Sergei
[Streak 5 Android Development] lordofazeroth:
Normally swap is nonsense on a SD card...

But as far as I remember from my kernel compiling on the Hannspad zram is not possible without swap.

But is the S5 really fast enough for handling zram without major drawbacks?

PS:

Do you have any suggestions here?

Sometimes its quite annoying.

Regarding stopping phone process - i haven't this error.

[Streak 5 Android Development] lordofazeroth:
I switch to airplane mode all the time - it's not wise to have a phone ringing or vibrating (you hear it in a quiet lecture room) in university.

And during sleep, because I like to use lighning bug or Ambiance while sleeping.

Maybe thats the problem?
