My comments, since I do some graphics work professionally:

Either I'm reading this wrong or Android has an extremely stupid rendering design. I do professional embedded GL graphics (and some Qt) so I'm not up to date with the Android framework yet:

* Why isn't drawing a client-server model where all draw commands are funneled to a unified multi-threaded draw server? That way, each app doesn't need a 8MB chunk of driver memory (which is stupid in itself already especially on embedded, Windows Mobile, Qt on Windows Mobile, etc). Only full-screen apps should have direct rendering to the framebuffer. Android is already suffering from draw consistency, resource contention by allowing each app to direct render. C-S would separate touch event contention from drawing contention that each Android app suffers from and why iOS has smoother UI.

* Why isn't Android using a multi-process scene-graph (each app is a item, and then each item has multiple sub-graphs per app) so Android can not only retain what needs to be drawn per global animation updates, but can instantly and easily cull unnecessary updates per app. Putting each app into an overlay isn't the best way to go without this culling.

* Why isn't Android using "dirty-regions" as another way to cull necessary updates (I assume this is what tiles are)? It should be since its a standard technique that dates back to QuickDraw and QuickDraw II, besides MS's windows API.

* With the pixel-overdraw bandwidth issue, Android can easily first cull through the scene-graph, then the per-app dirty-regions (or stencil buffer*), and then use the hardware-accelerated *depthbuffer to eliminate more overdraw, and draw front-to-back. This is just simplified because there's more modern GL tricks for culling. So, Android shouldn't have to touch each displayed pixel more than once.

* Is Android using pixelshaders at all to accelerate standard widgets such as buttons, etc? There's no reason to have large simplified buttons that can't be replicated by instanced models with pixel-shaders in a scene-graph.

Maybe Android should switch to the Unreal Engine for drawing instead, or some other modern game engine. These are all solved issues. Android has hardware that's generations more performant than the old game systems, but a software engine that's generations behind.

lol in other words no iOS smoothness for us fail I hope ICS hooks up my nexus s tho :(

Aye, I agree with you there!!!!!

In case anyone wonders, this was Romain Guy's reply to the questions above:
[Nexus S General] peacekeeper05:
I don't even consider iOS that smooth. Multitasking and app switching in that OS is a big pain. My IP4 and iPod touch 4th slows down a lot when multitasking. To a point that it freezes for seconds.

I posted with my girls pre 2 and the multitasking in that is perfect

Here you go guys, the latest firmware for the PLAY!

This is the generic Hong Kong Trade version :)

To be flashed with FlashTool!

Download here
[Xperia Play Android Development] KeiranFTW:
Staying on .42 for now, happy with it and there is no significant upgrade.
[Xperia Play Android Development] ando_uk:
if the basedband has changed which it has it'll be for one reason or another

hopefully it's due to the high cell standby battery drain
[Xperia Play Android Development] waallace:
Have a Portuguese (Brazillian) on idioms ?.

And DoomLord kernel is flashable ?
[Xperia Play Android Development] thomassafca:
Yes to both questions :)
[Xperia Play Android Development] zaryab:
Any change logs ??//
[Xperia Play Android Development] tommoose:
Been running this for a couple of days now and battery life seems much improved
[Xperia Play Android Development] KeiranFTW:
Placebo maybe?
[Xperia Play Android Development] tommoose:
i dont think it is. been running it as stock with root thru zergrush (with data and wifi set to off with screen off and some bloat frozen or removed) and overnight it dropped by 4%. On .42 with the exact same variables set i would see a drop of around 10% to 15%. signal strength on wifi and vodafone seem to be stronger and more consistent too

tom
[Xperia Play Android Development] KeiranFTW:
Installing now, hopefully fix my market.
[Xperia Play Android Development] ando_uk:
just flashed this myself installed dooms v8 kernel,removed all the crap(didn't freeze uninstalled) gonna do a full charge before bed and see if the 20% drain i used to have is any better

sony must of recieved feedback about the baseband or the dev's found the problem from what i can see the only thing changed is the baseband
[Xperia Play Android Development] KeiranFTW:
Think they changed the kernel a lot too, looking at the sources.

EDIT: scratch that, sources are almost the same. just a few differences.
[Xperia Play Android Development] HearthC0re:
So this has every language included?
[Xperia Play Android Development] KeiranFTW:
I think so.

It has a hell load of bloatware.

But - it fixed my market! Long live the Chinese!
[Xperia Play Android Development] HearthC0re:
Anyone tried running this with DooMLoRDv8 ?

Tried myself and got neither Data nor WiFi.. so pretty much not usable :)
[Xperia Play Android Development] ando_uk:
obviously didn't flash the wifi modules from doom's kernel

mobile data and wifi both working fine here

please let us know if is there anybody here that find out the difference .

thanks
[Xperia Play Android Development] Adam3Sixty:
If i flash this, I'm guessing my UOT theme will be lost, but will I be able to just flash my old theme again, or will I have to get the files from this firmware and re-cook my theme again??
[Xperia Play Android Development] thomassafca:
If the old theme was made for the .42 firmware, yes you can flash it again :)
[Xperia Play Android Development] Adam3Sixty:
awesome news, thanx :)
[Xperia Play Android Development] labbala:
I see improvments in the WIFI and battery
[Xperia Play Android Development] KeiranFTW:
Using .58 baseband with .42 firmware = win.
[Xperia Play Android Development] faisaldante:
hmm why would u say dat any particular reason
[Xperia Play Android Development] KeiranFTW:
Because you get the best firmware with the best baseband.
[Xperia Play Android Development] andiemerchcomia:
Is this worth installing. I have. 42 firmaware and im pissed with the battery life. Any reviews for this firmware update?
[Xperia Play Android Development] orangesunshine:
No,its same as with old baseband..im on 58 baseband for 5 days now,same battery drain,same ****ty mobile connection with 49‰ mobile standby,not worth

it imo,at first i thought its better but its not..at least thats my experience
[Xperia Play Android Development] andiemerchcomia:

Have you tried changing the setup within Message apk?

ie: Set 'SMS input mode settings' to Automatic rather than Unicode

uncheck the Auto change MMS mode.

I have the same phone and same setup (e120s with EL27). I don't use the stock message apk. I use Handsent and I can send 160 chars per sms.

I hardly use MMS, I have Whatsapp.
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] LawlietHD:
SMS problem

Guys you need to read the previous posts about the sms problem as it has already been mention before, for e120l the problem was solved for SOME by flashing TeamLeader 1.3 rom. For e120s which i have myself, there are two ways, you can either use the stock messenger app and NOT use apostrophe (') because every time you use a apostrophe it turns it into a MMS. The other solution is to install a third party messenger app like for example GoSMS, this allows me to type up to 147 but still not the full 160.

How is everyone elses battery life? Ive found it to be quite bad. I used my phone today for about 8 hours and it drained all the way down. I used it to play music for maybe 30 mins, made a few phone calls, took a couple pics, sent some messages, and that's about it. Wifi was on for 2 hours, 3G on during the whole time.

Any tips on how to improve battery life?

Galaxy SII HD LTE E120s

Hey boys n girls

So I've got one of these beauties and (aside from a few issues) I'm REALLY happy with it.

I had a couple of issues getting it connected to the Australian OPTUS 3G network but with some fiddling I finally managed to work it out.

Battery life seems to get me all day and then I've a little left at night. I guess I'd be a normal to heavy user. So I'm happy with that.

Has anyone managed to solve the SMS 80 Character limit without rooting?

Is there a simple root/firmware for it yet that works without fuss and allows going back to stock in case of warranty? (Yes I've never rooted a phone before so am a little cautious of my new toys).

Model: SHV-E120S

Firmware : 2.3.6

Did you use wifi and then not turn it off when you were not using the phone? Try setting the Wi-Fi sleep policy to turn wifi off when screen is off. I found on my non-HD SGS2 that the default setting drains the battery like crazy because wifi is on all the time.

No matter what I do I can't get another app to send the sms in the first place. It will allow me to type it and wont change to an MMS along the way (like the stock app) but with GoSMS or HandCent it just fails to send :(

Anyone have any ideas?

I installed it yesterday. I thought I had messed up since it just automatically rebooted after flashing using cwm. things seem to be working pretty well as the camera doesn't reboot like in MK. however, battery seems to drain pretty fast, if not faster than MK.

I'll write more about it later after spending more time with it.
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] Shrewdy:
I hope you are referring to the SVN V1.2 ROM for SHV-E120S.....and did this solve your Lockscreen problem....

I could not give you a backup of my device coz ... the recovery creates some problem with the backup and later even i was not able to restore from it...

yeah, I was talking about the SVN v1.2...but it wouldn't let me make any phone calls or receive any. then when I tried to go back to JB rom, it says my sim card is missing. luckily, MK is still working.
