What "resources" are you referring to? Nothing more than RAM? I usually have about 130 mb of free ram on sense and can't tell a difference between that and a cm7 rom with 300 free mb. And what's so bad about the use of "resources" if you can still get great battery life and run a smooth rom?
[myTouch 4G General] bittermormon:
why come into a thread that's specifically about Sense, and tout your love of AOSP?
[myTouch 4G General] NatsuDragneell:
Well I have about that same amounted of ram 150-130 but 300 would be useful I do a lot if multitasking

[myTouch 4G General] jberg22:
Yeah if I do a lot of multitasking I'll usually kill some apps using the built in task manager. But my whole point is, if I can't tell a difference between the speed and fluidity of the two in normal daily use, then why's it make a difference?
[myTouch 4G General] Etrick:
And its fun to ride but don't let your friends see you
[myTouch 4G General] Jack_R1:
What amount? It's FREE memory. The memory that doesn't get used, because the system kills the "aged" apps way before they reach anywhere close to memory boundaries. No multitasking will bring you to the boundaries of memory with that much free RAM, even if you keep 5 games open simultaneously (and they usually save state and drop from memory anyway, if they're programmed well).

We're listening.

Resource hog? Resources are there to be used, that's the whole point of having CPU- and graphically-strong phone with 768MB RAM and 400MB of system partition size. If I wanted to run AOSP, I'd stick with Nexus One, it was plenty enough for that.

The points were discussed MULTIPLE times:

AOSP dialer sucks badly, and no replacement out of the box is good enough and preserves full functionality under Gingerbread (clearing missed calls requires converting dialer to system app, and not all dialers support it). Dialer One lags badly with contact pics. Go Dialer EX has other bugs.

AOSP Email sucks just as bad. No moving mail between folders?

AOSP camera sucks big time.

AOSP lack of power controls in the notification bar sucks.

AOSP system interface is way uglier. Especially Gingerbread notification bar icons.

AOSP calendar sucks in its UI.

And you can't get those with any additions to the stock, because the additions mostly lack functionality and aren't well-integrated together.

Actually, I'm pretty satisfied with Sense 3. I'd like Sense to have better multilanguage support, though. And a customizable button or 2 in the dock bar. And some way to quickly pick a number for a contact with multiple numbers in dialer.
[myTouch 4G General] brianphanz0r:
literally the worst false analogy ive ever heard.
[myTouch 4G General] jberg22:
Totally agree with everything you said. I always felt like AOSP would never be enough to make my friends with iPhones jealous just because of its dull appearance. I feel like Sense can do that though.

Also, what do you think about ICS in regards to all that criteria? From some of the stuff I've seen, vanilla ICS looks pretty impressive and I feel like it corrects a lot of the things I didn't like about stock GB and previous versions.
[myTouch 4G General] Jack_R1:
I didn't check the ICS too thoroughly, and in the official presentation not even one of the points I was looking for were mentioned. I'll probably grab the SDK update and take a look at the emulator some time, but I'm not in a hurry :) I'm most interested in functional points like dialer, email and camera, and for checking those I'll need to work on that emulator a bit - which is why I'm lazy to do it.
[myTouch 4G General] sunsean:
+1 on Sense superiority. I've gone back and forth many times between AOSP and Sense, and while there are things I LOVE about AOSP/cm7, overall the experience packs less of an impact, as you guys said. When running Sense (now Sense 3.5), it just feels like I have higher quality software on my phone. And as I still get solid performance and battery life, it's worth the extra usage of resources.
[myTouch 4G General] corwest:
Those concerned about resources should know that android operates just as fast with 300 MB of free ram as it does with 1 mb. It will use what it needs and has no iimpact on how much iis left over.

After installing 2nd init, step 6,7 says

But the phone is stuck on a boot loop. The guide says select normal boot in bootloader menu. But in the bootloader, I find no such option. I pressed volume down during blue LED and got into "Android system recovery". Hitting reboot system on it made no difference.

Am I missing a step, or did I install the wrong version of 2nd init? Some searching around led me to the latter. How can I fix this now?

Hey Guys,

I need help,

here is my problem:

My HD7 restart it self. After enter Pin i go to Pictures Hub and it loads,loads,loads after 5 min my device does nothing so i took battery off. My Device start up and stuck on HTC White Screen.

I can go to Tri-Colored Screen, can go to Restore(Checksum)

After one Restore everything works. Now the same problem appeared again. Now i dont want to restore my device again.

Is there a way to start the device without hardrest??

Hope someone can help me.

Sorry for bad english.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
Sounds like you may have bad hardware. I'm assuming you've never flashed a custom ROM or anything like that? I hate to break it to you, but your only options at this point are probably either retore again and hope for some reason it works this time, hard reset and hope the problem was in writable storage and not in ROM, flash a custom ROM 9if your bootloader is compatible) and hope that fixes it, or get a warranty replacement for a defective device.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schulz1199:
Thanks for your help. I have tested Custom Rom's and Stock Rom's but the problem doesn't go so i have read that it can be a memory card problem. I know my device felt sometimes to the ground so i opened the phone and the memcard was not really inside the socket so i but it inside and all works fine.

Hello,

I have recently flashed CM7 2.3.5 with Baseband 2.1.71.

I notice that even simple things like swiping between home screens is much more fluid on the CM7 than on the Stock SE 2.3.3 ROM.

I was looking at the performance options in the CM Settings - JIT is enabled along with "Surface Dithering".

Anything else I should be looking at to improve performance?

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] fuss132:
Hey ACE-users,

Some of you contacted me and requested if i would like to develope for the Galaxy ACE and help you to solve some problems. Because of this and because of the fact that a friend of someone out of our Team bought one I started developing.

Problem is that we have not really a device we can use for developeing (we can´t use our friends every time ^^) and especially things like ICS Porting or Kernel developing needs one (we must test the files for working first).

So now BlockBuster Team would like to know if the user community here is interested in donating a device to us for development.

I mostly developed for the Galaxy S before, but also for Galaxy SLC (http://www.xda-developers.com/android/ics-ported-to-galaxy-s-i9003/) Galaxy 3... Mostly I´m developing by myself (kernel, scripts, tweaks, custom roms) but I teach other people who want to learn developing, too (like 5pace) . Check out my Threads, my Tutorials and our Homepage. I´m currently waiting for Galaxy S 3 release, so i´ve now the time for your device.

So what do the users of this community think? Let us know your opinion in this thread. If you want we can create a Paypal account and you can start to donate.

Maybe there´s someone here who doesn´t need his Galaxy ACE any longer - if it´s working it would be the easiest way for us to become one if you send it to us.

@Mods: I wasn´t sure if i should post this in Developement section. Finally i posted it here cause it´s a request - something like a quuestion ;) If you think it´sin the wrong one feel free to move it

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] splinters69:
Cheers, uninstalling and reinstalling did the trick...gonna try a few hi res packs now but anyone know where to get the SM64 pack (the cartoon style one)?

Looked eveywhere but links seem to be dead.

EDIT: I got some packs, unzipped them and put them in the relevant folder. Enabled the option but they are not showing up. Do they have to be renamed?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Russsy:
This is what I did to make the texture pack work.

If the file of the rom you have is named "Super Mario 64.z64" rename the texture pack that you unziped to "Super Mario 64" and it should be working (Make sure capitalization and spacing is exactly the same as the rom file name). Then make sure you put the renamed texture pack folder in sdcard/.n64oid/hires_texture.

The texture pack I'm using is Elxuxi's nintemod super mario 64 retextured. Also there are some texture packs that do not even work or makes the game laggy and unplayable or freezes.

Hey,

So I dump the rar files as zipped or unzipped into the relative directory? Please clarify. thanks =)
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] aitmanga:
Tried the cartoonish Mario 64 texture pack, and it looks great.

The folder that contains your texture pack should have the same name as the rom, not the file. Usually the texture packs have the correct folder name so you should not change it. In Mario 64 case it should be /mnt/sdcard/.n64oid/hires_texture/SUPER MARIO 64

EDIT: The texture packs should be unzipped
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] nekoarashi:

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] SG2Tiger:
Just downloaded Djipi's pack for Ocarina of Time, and it's not working for me. My rom is named "Zelda Ocarina of Time.n64" so I unzipped all the textures into a folder of the same name in the hires_texture folder, but no dice. I don't know much about texture pack modding, but could it have to do with the fact that all the files in the pack I downloaded are named in French? Or does it only depend on what the folder they're contained in is named (matches the ROM)? I have the 'enable external textures' box checked under my engine settings, and my game isn't crashing or anything, it's just loading with the default textures.

Edit: After a bit of searching, it seems I need to name the folder with the textures as THE LEGEND OF ZELDA and make sure the ROM name has that as well (ex. Legend of Zelda, The - Ocarina of Time (U) (V1.0) [!]). This change produced some results - now, the game loads on a black screen that hangs for a minute or so before I get the 'force close' or 'wait' notification. When I toggle off the 'enable textures' option, it returns to normal, so clearly I've done something 'right' in getting the textures to be recognized this time, but they just don't work. Any insight as to this problem?

I got Zelda OOT working on Galaxy S2, played a little bit and seems ok:

1) Downloaded a texture archive called ootpackv2.7z (can't post links, just google it)

2) Unpacked in sdcard/.n64oid/hires_texture

3) I named the folder "THE LEGEND OF ZELDA" as SG2Tiger said, so it becomes sdcard/.n64oid/hires_texture/THE LEGEND OF ZELDA/<various folders with textures>

4) Enabled hi-res textures in the Engine Settings menu of the emulator

5) Restarted the emulator

4) Launched the game, stared faithfully for some time at the black screen, then the game worked!

NOTE1: My rom is called "Zelda - Ocarina of Time.z64", I think the name of the hi-res folder has to match the first part of the texture filenames, for example:

THE LEGEND OF ZELDA#9D6DBC41#0#2_all.png

NOTE2: the first time it gave me an error with options "Force Close" and "Wait", I chose "Wait" and it worked, the second time worked normally (just a long wait with dark screen)

Hope this helps!

Hi!

I've got a samsung galaxy s3 gtI9305, maybe I post at the wrong place but I think that the most relevant thread, anyway, I've got the n64oid emulator

I installed Hi-res texture for Mario 64 at the folder ...\.n64oid\hires_texture\Mario 64 , exactly the same name of the ROM, and it works very well !!

So ok, let's go on, I installed Hi-res texture for mario kart 64 at the folder ...\.n64oid\hires_texture\Mario Kart 64, the same name of the ROM, but this time it does'nt works at all !

So maybe someone can answer, I don't know if the sub-folders of "mario kart 64", where are the texture, must have a particular name? I'm sure that the problem!!

Hello developers!

I am an owner of S. Galaxy Ace and I got MPman internet tablet (MP720) for my b-day. It's not any thing special so I haven't found the topic for it like for Galaxy Tab or anything like that. I have App lib on it and I don't like it so I tried installing Android Market.apk from the internet and I guess it would work good, but the problem is when I go to "accounts and sync" I press on Add account cause there is none. When I enter my gmail account and the password the same like on my SGA it brings me to an other step. On my SGA I didn't saw this anywhere so there is like:

domain\username: \(my username)

password: **

server: gmail.com

and tu check box options (SSL and accept all SSL certificates) the first one is checked.

When i press next it says: checking incoming server settings... and it gives me error unable to open connection to server.

Does anyone know how I can fix it I would really like to use Android Market.

It's not just a case of installing the market app, other files and apps are required.

Hey there xda-dwellers. I hope I've chosen the correct forum for this question.

I've always wondered - whenever I go to download a new ROM for whatever phone I have at the time, ROMs are always hosted on Megaupload / Rapidshare (or something along those lines). Why?

Is it because most developers lack the resources to push out enough bandwidth to satisfy downloaders such as myself? It it more convenient to use these sites? Or does it have something to do with legal issues?

Just trying to think of a way I can give back to the community. If it's out of a lack of bandwidth, I may be able to help.

Thanks!
[General Questions and Answers] ckoadiyn:
Most devs don't have their own servers or websites not all are Megaupload. Also some just use it as another way to push it out if its super popular. Least thats what I have viewed.
[General Questions and Answers] Dark3n:
Its rather that even if they have the servers why should they use them to distribute 100MB ROM files to thousands of peoples, they don't sell the ROMs, they offer them for free, no income from that...

So they would have to pay money for bandwidth so people can download their free ROMs...
