On a phone like the NS4G, The Lazy governor works great if I underclock to 800. It makes the phone feel stock speed. I don't think it works the same on the Epic Touch but if you want to try it, its going to depend if its set up right on the kernel. I think on demand is king on E4GT. It did this to my Nexus..but its not on a consistent basis
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] meatwadathf:
It was a joke...

What does the lazy governor do?

Not much?

Get it? Cuz its lazy! HAHAHA :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DracheDame:
Do I need to download the initramfs zip as well?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Did you try wiping cache and Dalvik before flashing the kernel? I normally don't but there has been some serious kernel tweaking going on to correct and improve the issues
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
I always wipe cahces when flashing a kernel
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sleshepic:
Yup, always do,(even if not necessary). I figure it can never hurt
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] niv3d:
Can someone please explain what exactly init.d is? Please and thank you? I would really love to get more involved in Android and I guess understanding the terms would be a good start lol.

Got the yellow triangle back on the splashscreen. Thanks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
Why not flash the zip that PTF uploaded on page two I think
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
There's a thread to get rid of it

wellcould have been just one of them things man im still running your kernel on caulklins rom works awesome just a little weary of doing fdr lol!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] pdiddyfan:
I have this and Calkulin's Rom and it works flawlessly except for one thing, my crt screen off animation is gone. Anyone else have this problem. I guess I'll find it on here and reflash it...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Steady Hawkin:
Not sure, my CRT on that rom works fine.

I can't say I have seen that yet, have you tried a reboot?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rast4man:
This is what I get for sleeping, I missed this when it was posted. Now I'm going to IV coffee 24/7 and just stalk the forums. Lulz I'll be flashing here in a bit to test it out. Thanks for the project.

How do u achieve 1.5ghz on this kernel? 1.4 works great and 1.6 give me reboot if I run a benchmark, thanks in advance!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Steady Hawkin:
We actually don't have 1.5 built into our table. Our next release will include more steps (including 1.5), as well as a few other goodies:D

Awesome! Im enjoying this initial release but am looking forward to all future projects, thanks man!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sleshepic:
Did you flash lockmod over calk rom? I know if you change transition animation speed it somehow disables crt off
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Sterist:
i LOVE this kernel but there's one small thing..

if it aint broke, dont fix it :( touchscreen sensitivity is making me tap multiple times after missing it the first time
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rast4man:
Thanks for making it a flashable zip and it was a classy move to ask OP before you posted it. Kudos.

Off topic but ptfdmedic when are you going to release an update for midnightROM?

Dude I get the SAME thing on one of my chargers. I plug it in and if I try to do things with it, like surf or use XDA Apps, it glitches and just acts crazy. I never figured that out. I wish someone could shed some light on it though.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
I thought that was a known Samsung issue with their kernel and charging setting the sensitivity way off when phone is charging
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rast4man:
Sounds logical but I'm not on a Samsung Kernel. I'm using LoStKernelEXP+ v1.0.0.8 and about to flash the Renegade to test it out. Either way it's an annoying issue. Is there a way that you know of to adjust the sensitivity you're talking about? I'm not sure exactly what you mean by sensitivity.

Regards,

rast4man
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
I have been using that kernel and recovery combo and have had no issues on the charger but you could always set a setcpu profile for charging and raise the min cpu speed
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
Here is some screen shots after full charge and wiping batt stats
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rast4man:
Just flashed and DAMNIT TO HELL the yellow triangle of death is back! :(

*sigh* Now I have to redo that procedure to get rid of it. I hope this kernel is worth it! haha j/k

I'll report back if I find anything goofy otherwise it looks good so far. Great job.

Regards,

rast4man

@GMAN - Still unsure of what you're talking about. I don't use SetCPU but have in the past with my HTC Hero. Since I'm back on viperMOD and it has it's own overclocking/voltage control mod built in and now flashed teh Renegade Kernel which has CPU adjustments, I don't think I should install SetCPU and have ANOTHER CPU program.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
Fair enough and FYI PTFmedic uploaded a cwm flashable zip on page two I think
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] luigic81:
How do we change voltage and scaling etc without using an app such as setcpu?

I'm on caulks rom btw.

Is there something in terminal similar to iv? permod
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sportsplayer5959:
Yep the yellow triangle appears any time you flash something in odin and doesnt go away until you clear the odin count with a usb jig or do the procedure you originally did. Pain in the butt right?

this is going to sound like an annoying question...

I'm at work and bored and wanna try this out, but our IT dept monitors our downloads (kill me). how big is this file? just need to know before giving it a shot

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rast4man:
So I flashed the tar via Odin and then got the triangle of death. I used the FlashZimage method to get rid of it and it put me back on LoStKernelEXP+. Now ptfmedic uploaded a flashable .zip which I just downloaded but is it the full recovery AND kernel or just the kernel? I want to have the recovery as well as the kernel.

Also, with the method to remove the yellow triangle found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1297999

It indicates that you can replace the zImage in the original zip with any kernel to flash. If we used the zImage from that tar file, and flashed via Odin would we get the Rogue kernel AND recovery? TIA

Regards,

rast4man
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
Yes and yes.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rast4man:
Thanks. I downloaded the file ptfmedic put up two times now and each time I try to flash it in CWM, it aborts and says (bad). Is it just me or what?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] LudoGris:
What ROM/theme is that?

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] archheretic:
Hi guys

Hope I am posting this in the right place. I'm looking for an app that allows me to increase the volume on my gs2 by smaller increments than the volume rocker does standard? Basically every time i hit up or down on the volume rocker the difference is huge. I can't seem to find the right volume for music. One notch will be too quiet, the next one up is too loud. My setup is:

2.3.4 stock, unrooted

Equalizer app custom eq

poweramp eq

Ultimate ears super fi noise isolating headphones

I use these settings and apps because standard it sounds rubbish. i've finally got my sounds right, but can't get the right volume! I've tried heaps of apps from the market, volume+, volume control, etc. All increase the volume by the standard 10% increment rather than the 5% i'm looking for. Fine volume control sort of worked, but it seemed after i adjusted the volume it would quickly revert in a second or two.

Any help would be greatly appreciated :)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] richardop:
Hi, that shouldn't be happening; are you using the hardware volume buttons to change the volume? You have to use the dial or in-app sliders to modify the volume, if you use any other app to change the volume (or the rocker buttons), then it will move in larger increments.

If you need more a longer time to trial it, then PM/email me your UUID (menu/preferences then hold down your back button)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] archheretic:
Thanks, I will give this another try and report back.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] archheretic:
With some more experimentation, this works really well, so I bought it :-) two things I was wondering about though, is there any way to lock volume, as I must be knocking as it shoots right up, and is there any way to save as a preset?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] richardop:
Presets are a possible future addition.

Not sure about volume lock, there are apps in the market like "RingGuard" and "Volume Locker" which would work - but only if you moved the volume enough to trigger an API level volume change, which is approx every 10-20%.

The volume slider shoots up when you press the hardware volume buttons? That's normal - it's because of how your device volume is calibrated (by the ROM).

The default volume stages aren't evenly spread across the entire available range. Our app shows the full range available, so when you press the volume buttons (from outside our app) it can appear to jump. It is effectively jumping, because the default API doesn't allow you to access those volume levels that lie between jumps (but you can with fine volume).

Basically, all other volume control apps and the Android system show the volume in terms of API volume levels. Fine volume control shows the volume in terms of the full available range. All other apps (and the volume hardware buttons) change the volume in terms of API levels.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] archheretic:
It shoots up when using the dial. I've tried changing the sensitivity as well. Seems to always shoot media volume to 94%. It only does this occasionally though. All in all a great app!
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] archheretic:
Just to confirm, the dual on the far left is the overall volume? So if I am at 90% media volume but 7% overall, the media volume is 90% of the 7%, not of its possible maximum?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] richardop:
No, each slider is independent from the rest (ringer and notification are locked together though). There is no overall volume control.

The slider on the left (Android logo) is "System" volume, things like Screen lock sounds.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Tyr:
I have a rooted HTC Desire running Cyanogenmod 7 for which I wanted fine volume control. I like to be able to change volume using the rocker but it instantly shoots to 100% and that is extremely painful when using canalphones. I have uninstalled fine volume control 2 because I don't want to run the risk of insane volume levels.

Does anyone have any idea if this can be built into the volume API and have reliable hardware control?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] richardop:
Were you using the dial/overlay to change the volume?

Did the overlay not respond to your initial gesture, then suddenly "catch-up"?

Were you turning the volume up when it jumped?

I'm really sorry about this, I'll try and put in some volume limiter to prevent it happening.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Tyr:
Sorry for the late reply.

Dial/overlay worked as expected. what was causing problems was accidental use of the hardware buttons. Because that is what I am used to using. The app does not change hardware button behaviour and actually makes it worse as the volume can go almost instantly from 0 to 100% when touching the rocker.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] richardop:
The main volume app component overrides the hardware buttons and increases/decreases the volume by 1% each time you tap the button.

If the main volume app isn't currently on top, it can't override the hardware buttons (the overlay can't override either). It's a limitation of the Android system.

Each time you hit the hardware buttons from outside of the app, the volume will change in the default way (15 stages for media).

I've had a few reports of a bug when using earphones on the SGSII of erratic volume levels, so I have since added a volume limiter for when using headphones to workaround that sort of issue.
[Windows Phone 7 General] the0ne:
Similar to the notification Centre we covered a while ago we have put together a new Business Card Reader Concept for Windows Phone , we want an applike this to offers an easy way to add a new contact to your phone: simply take a picture of a business card and save the contact. You can also keep the image of the business cards to easy visual navigation – it’s your virtual Card holder.

So any devs out here want to take a stab at it ?

[Windows Phone 7 General] HackMimic:
If you do a search on the marketplace you will find good ol' worldcard just like what was on wm6.5. Just cost $9.99 but there is one. I would doubt this kind of app would be made for free.
[Windows Phone 7 General] finalzero:
It's great people are stating alternatives here, but this is a good opportunity for developers to have a go at something.

As the OP mentioned:

"So any devs out here want to take a stab at it ?"

I am one of those developers who wants to have a go at this, purely from an educational point of view.

Nothing is totally free in this world however out of respect I would be happy to pay for an app provided it wasn't over the odds.

Personally I think anything developed on the XDA forums should remain open ended to allow people to learn and evolve the project.
[Windows Phone 7 General] twisticles:
Yeah i think I covered that concept on the old Windows Phone board about six months before release...but nice idea. ;)
[Windows Phone 7 General] nicholasleezt:

Well a lot of business cards have QR Codes on them.

But I'm going to try and see what I can do about this.

-Sent from my HTC EVO 3D using the XDA App.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Ludacris:
yup. I have placed a QR code on the backside of my business Card that includes a VCard with my Contact info. If you scan it, WP7 will automatically send you to the contacts hub and Display my contact - you can then save it :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] bobbydharrell:
Whats in it for the Dev Who Suceeds? Free Nokia Lumia 800 on verizon when it appears? lol

For that I would devote all my time to making it happen lol, I dont program for profit hence why most of my apps are free, I program for the free devices.
[Windows Phone 7 General] sayonical:
Guys check out "My Contact Tile" in the market place. It creates a QR code on your contact information. Someone else with a wp7 can scan it and it will save it to the people hub. Love it!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Earthdog:
Just arrived see review below:

So let me start by saying I am a big fan of Seidio cases.

First Impression:

Very nice packaging and the looks of the case are great.

Case:

The Neoprene part of the case is very thin. You will notice little added bulk but excellent coverage. However a big point of concern I have is the neoprene is slick. So if you purchased this to protect your new SR it will be great. If one of your complaints with the SR is the back was slick and lacked texture your in for the same experience. After sliding over the Neoprene you slide the outer ring/plastic frame. The outer ring fits nicely over the Neoprene.

Fit:

The Neoprene fits well however to note the rear speaker is covered slightly but all other openings fit well. The outer ring suffers from the same issue for the rear speaker. The case does not really add much bulk which is a plus.

Overall:

This is a very nice case considering the money. I have not noticed the slight covering of the rear speaker to have a adverse effect. I think this offers good protection overall. I think for most people the issue will be the slick aspect of the Neoprene. If I were to give it a rating I would give it a 8 out of 10.

End Result:

I ended up returning the case. The only real issue I had was the Neoprene is just simply too slick. My 2 cents are since the device is sizable I need a textured cover so as to avoid any slipping. I don't want to knock the case but for me its too slick.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Gr8Danes:
Looks nice, but your link is bad. Got a good one?

Nevermind, just clicking on it brings you to the wrong address. You have to copy and paste it into the browser.

How did you order it if it's out of stock? Was it in stock prior? There's no button to purchase.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Earthdog:
Fixed the link...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] KewlRobD:
Looks very interesting. Can you post back here after you recieve it and let us know how you like it? I have the otterbox case that is sold in the at&t store and I hate the bulk it adds and it simply makes the phone ugly. Like Gr8Danes I can't place an order for this item since it is out of stock.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] DoctorQMM:
This case looks great and appears to be low-profile as well. Tried to order, but all the cases state "Out of Stock", and there's no way to select/add to cart. Hopefully these will be in stock soon. Anyone know of another vendor source?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] KewlRobD:
Don't know how the OP ordered his but it seems these items are still in production and not ready to ship. I can't wait to get a review on one of these as it is exactly what I have been looking for. If it fits well and is as low profile as it looks I will be sold.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] madmike23:
It's kinda sad that there aren't that many cases available for the Skyrocket yet. I gave up looking and bought the same thing. Same site. Got the silver for me and the white one for the wife.

These have been in production for a while now, they were originally for the international LTE HD handsets. I just hope they fit ours nicely. Got an email yesterday that my order had already shipped. I'm in NY, it'll be a while... :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] stephman:
I reluctantly ordered one of these too. The phone is way too slippery nekkid, so I had to get a case before my new skyrocket goes skyrocketing out of my hand one of these days.

I'm really waiting for someone to create a Barely-There type case for the skyrocket. But until then I'll have some peace of mind with this Neo case.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] KewlRobD:
How did you order one? They show out of stock and there is no Add to Cart button.

They're available to order from Amazon now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] KewlRobD:
Thanks man, I just ordered a black one for me and a red one for the wife. I wonder why they are available on Amazon directly from SGP but still listed as out of stock on the SGP site.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] stephman:
When I ordered it yesterday, it was in stock.

Someone just posted that they're available on Amazon now, hurry up and order from there before they're all gone.

I may cancel my order from Cretouch for the Neo, and order the Ultra capsule series from Amazon since that case looks thinner than the Neo.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] KewlRobD:
Does the capsule have a smooth back or textured? Hard to tell in the picture.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] stephman:
Looks smooth, but a bit more rubbery grip than that stock battery cover on the Skyrocket. But I won't know for sure until it arrives.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] KewlRobD:
I watched a couple of unboxing videos for both the capsule and the neo on GS2 devices. Not sure I agree that the capsule is less bulky. Looks like the capsule has almost no lip around the front edge but than again that lip on the neo will protect the screen better in the case of a drop.

In the video's the overall thickness of the case looks about the same or maybe even a little in favor of the neo. So the real difference is that lip on the front. I like the looks of the neo better. So between the looks and the added drop protection I think I can deal with a small lip.

Be interesting to compare notes after we both receive our cases.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] stephman:
I'll definitely come back and comment on the case when it arrives.

So I ordered the gel type case from Amazon and the Neo from Cretouch's website. I just emailed Cretouch to see if they can cancel my order for the Neo. If they can't, then I'll have 2 cases to try out and comment on.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] prodigalOne:
What does this really protect though?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] KewlRobD:
Not sure who you post is aimed at. If your asking what these cases protect well it would mostly be scratch protection. But during a drop you would probably avoid any deep gashes like I have experienced from dropping my cappy on blacktop.

The neo seems to have a small lip in the front of the phone. This would stop the phone from landing on it's screed during a drop and inhibit the phone from sitting on it's screen when placed face down.
