[Streak 5 Android Development] chriscullen42:
So is Softbank 369 capable of supporting DSC and other GB ROMS?

So, am I correct in thinking that the Softbank 369 rom installed basebands (whatever they are) that are compatible with your DSC? Also, would they work with other GB ROMS like CM or MIUI? I get a little confused by basebands, I assume these are the AMSS and DSP's that get flashed using fastboot. Anyway, I guess the big advantage for me with being able to do this is it should make a nandroid recovery more simple? I assume if you change your ROM completely (say from 360 to 369 as in my case) any nandriod backup would break - so cannot restore a 360 backup onto a 369 install. But, if I have a 369 nandroid backup then I flash DSC or CM or whatever and don't get along with it, then I could just do a nandroid restore and all would be back to before?

Thanks for the information you gave me last time and I'd appreciate it if you could let me know how dsc is getting along with the 369 baseband and whether you'd recommend installing it that way.
[Streak 5 Android Development] cdzo72:
Anytime you flash a Dell update.pkg it is going to replace whatever you may have done by manually flashing anything in fastboot (recovery, amss,.dsp1...etc).... the DSC kernel has been built to ignore the baseband version so you don't get the flashing lights while using your phone.

Now nandroid doesn't have anything to do with that baseband I don't think... so if you nandroid a 360 ROM, then flash 369 and then proceed to nandroid back your 360... yeah all your info will be there but you'll have flashing lights because you don't have DSC kernel for Froyo, its only for Gingerbread

But if you install a compatible Gingerbread ROM and DSC kernel on top of a 369 baseband you should be OK... no flashing lights... but if you nandroid back to 360 you will have to fastboot flash amss and dsp1 files to keep from having flashing LEDs
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
Could you catch the reboot log with hPa's patched driver? Code is absolutely the same and it would be better to disable Wifi fixer for clean tests.

To simplify - BB(AMSS) is like BIOS in PC. 3xx roms has version 3 and 4xx- 4 :). Kernel (optionally, disabled in Phoenix) checks BB version and blinks leds if it finds version mismatch.

So far i did not see any kernel-bb interoperability faults, testing 369 BB/DSC since it's out.

I'd recommend flashing 369, you won't have flashing leds in both 3xx stock ROMs and DSC.

QuickPanel - Download = Fastboot Mode, fastboot getvar

you are welcome. I forgot to mention. When you choose 'Download' from QuickPanel/Reboot, you go directly into

fastboot mode (echo -n "bootloader" > /proc/loader) - If you have the QuickPanel.apk open somewhere,

please change the label from 'Download' to 'Fastboot Mode'

Btw: I've some goodies for fastboot getvar

be carefull when playing with fastboot getvar! Some symbols in DT.img are not read-only, merely trigger for some kind of function test. When I try to get into 301-mode, I get at the moment the error "2G/3G function test not complete!!"

There seems to be an issue with the dialer. There is quite a delay when i select a number to call from either the contact list or from any other app. I havent yet counted the time as to how much is the delay but it just keeps on showing me a black screen and then finally the screen come up which shows that it is dialing and the buttons to end the call etc.

Another issue is that the dialer tends to give me a not responding message if i try to call numbers quickly. For eg if a call is coming as busy and i end it and try dialing again it just doesnt do anything and doesnt respond to any touch and soon i would get a message dialer not responding either force close or wait. Force closing results in the entire network to be lost.

Let's wait a bit more. It's the same kernel as in 1.5, but compiled with different toolchain and compiler options.

If it will work fine - flash 1.5 and then this kernel over.

I hope it's compiler or options that broke things for you before.

1.6 screen rotation seems to be messed up as touch input is flipped and reversed.

Update: complete wipe. Installed 1.0 and wiped again as instructed. Rebooted. Back to recovery and flashed the 1.6 update, wiped dalvik, rebooted and all is good. Just wondering if and when it will be updated to 2.3.7?

[Streak 5 Android Development] chriscullen42:
For the froyo chaps amongst us

Can I ask what the proceedure would be to flash this over the latest softbank ROM (369)? I kinda understand that it will work with the 369 baseband and won't get all flashy on me ;) Also, if I flash it and have some trouble, what percentage would you give to the likely success of a nandroid restore? Also, an honest assessment of how prime time ready it is - ie - should I wait it out a bit or is it good to go? BTW I will wait for 1.6 to be fully released!!!

The reason I ask is this is my only phone and in the past when I've tried DSC I did not have much success - basically the phone would boot and I could use it for a few minutes then it just froze or rebooted. I also had trouble with other ROMs, though CM and MIUI seemed reasonably stable for a week or so then they degraded and started crashing. I suspect it's all in the wiping and factory resetting, but I was always careful to wipe/reset according to the instructions. Sorry to ramble - just wonder if any of this rings any bells with anyone else? Oh, and originally I flashed over a 407 installation. I also nearly bricked my phone getting back to Froyo and ended up using the recovery tool - a major panic at the time I can tell you :)

video call quality DSC v1.5

Hello,

i apologize if interfere in this thread, because i am not a technician, nor an android developer (i just have eclipse with the SDK, but no more...)

i have just a question (i asked a similar question in other 'emerging' ROM forums):

can this ROM improve the video call quality, compared to the (old) ROM i have, the streakdroid 2.1 (android 2.3.3) ?

Thanks!
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
Nandroid will work 100%, as you don't have to flash BB/DSP - only ROM.

1.6 will be released after some good/bad/any feedback.

I personally find it quite stable.

Your previos problems could be related to -

Factory reset (the first, Dell, one) should be done after flashing rom - or before, it doesn't matter now)

Undervolting - it's off by default now and can be configured in DSConfig.

No, it won't.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Dude_Virus:
Update on 1.6

I havent faced any such lags or any other problem besides wifi freeze and disconnection.

With connection fixer on agressive mode 2 things are happenning

1. Slow internet speed.

2. WIfi freeze even when screen is on and I am using the device.

With connection fixer on normal mode wifi freeze when screen turns off whether its on charger or only on battery.

With connection fixer on OFF mode wifi freeze when device sleeps but its random.

I have verified and the wireless settings are set to never switch off wifi on screen turnoff.

1.4 was the stablest when it came to wifi.

Sound is too low on speaker as well on earpiece even after setting it from DS GAIN

There seems to be some strange issue when it comes to dpi because for me being on 120 or 110 dpi doesnt cause any issues when downloading apps or games from the market.

Hi

I'd like to use the Streak 5 with your ROM in university.

There I have to use VPNC Widget to connect to Cisco VPN.

Unfortunately, when checking prerequisities, it says "Advanced Routing is not enabled". VPN connectivity might me lost after a while.

I think it is "CONFIG_IP_ADVANCED_ROUTER" in the n0p config file.

Is it possible to activate this as =y, so VPN can be used properly?

On my phone used before (ZTE Blade) WBAW activated this too after I requested it:

I'd like to add one more thing, regarding this posting:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=19250781&postcount=275

Here is an excellent explanation about the governors and schedulers:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1369817

But the tweaks are different.

Can you tell me which one are "better"?

What is the standard scheduler?

Is ist bfq, noop, etc.?
[Streak 5 Android Development] _n0p_:
Like ivantastic said, it's "locked" to stock (160 is primary) values.

I think you should go for a newer (3) Swype version. It's available @ swype.com

Never experienced this problem. Are you using some OpenGL tweaks?

Kernel branching removed for a while now, latest considered stable kernel is included in DSC updates.

As i'm working on "CPU kick" improvement, i'll add this (advanced router) option for you to test. But i won't put it mainstream without you publishing speed/performance impact on networking.

Std IO scheduler is CFQ, NOOP should be better for flash devices, still testing. BFQ is best for media streaming.

Std (for DSC) CPU governor is conservative (tuned for less lag), as it's best for battery.

No, i don't plan to add a helluva load of governors, as they will confuse users and are simply conservative/ondemant variations and you can do same simply tuning std governors.

Best (for me at least) conservative settings are in the ROM already.

@all: Let me explain builtin Connection fixer logic:

Normal: script called on doUpdateWifiState, checks if wpa_supplicant thinks it's connected and then check same on driver level. This should happen on screen on and battery change.

Agressive: same as above, but also called on connection change. Also checks default route and tries to fix it if finds a misconfiguration.

Run a network speed test (SpeedTest.net would do fine), i'd suggest several times, taking best results.

Next, flash U21 kernel.

Check if your VPN connection is now working.

Run SpeedTest again. If best result is not worse, then we are fine.

[Streak 5 Android Development] TheManii:
Any person that makes a complete rom, regardless of source is a developer here.

If you want to be narrow, DJ_Steve is the ONLY dev here then, as:

Fards primarily makes kernels, he still uses the SD base rom

every other GB rom is descended from SD 2.4 or until very recently 406,

every kernel is also the same.

Until people started rebuilding off that, every other rom were essentially small mods of SD 2.4.

I would imagine the SD kernel is still the most modified one, even though it itself does not contain that many changes conceptually. None of the kernels, not even the SD one have major changes over the stock dell one.

SD itself is mainly on a bunch of tweaks/mods/themes on top of the base rom, it also contains very little if you dont include the kernel.

If you exclude the kernel itself, there are no mods at all then for the streak.

Just to clarify; knowing what you do (even it is done before) is something totally different than copy and paste. If you read it good enough, you must have noticed that he knows exactly what you can, or absolutely cannot use! That means he knows the ROM, which means he could tweak/change things, which means he can develop.
