Well, the latest V6 (Update 9 RC7) isn't playing nicely. Getting a syntax error and his recommendation is to use his posted Busybox. So, what version are you all using?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
I haven't updated V6 in a while... I think I'm still on the beta's.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] CodaHighland:
I'm... using the latest V6, no problems at all. o.o
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] JDog2pt0:
With how smooth my phone is running, I'm not sure I want to run V6. I'll run mah phone for a few weeks and see what I think. Though, I am going to try KaK and the 3G tweak. That 3G tweak is boss.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
The LMK values from V6 are on-board already. It has some additional OOM groupings that are supposedly optimized... not sure exactly what voodoo is involved there, but it does seem to help.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] JDog2pt0:
Bit of an odd thing happened. Okay, so apparently for whatever reason my device has been running at a LCD Density of 210 even though I explicitly told it in start-up to run at 240. Alright, well I installed a program to change the density to 240. It did/didn't. After I changed it and rebooted I was running at 160. Then I removed the program and rebooted to find the res at 240 (after commenting the setting in build.prop because the kernel or w/e doesn't read it)

Now the weird thing is I replaced rootfs.img with a default and deleted data.img This also gave me a res of 240. Why now? Either the setting is stored in another file somewhere or...well I don't know.

Now the problem is that everything was set to 210 so I'm getting visual artifacts.

I want 240 and I'm going to try a fresh start, but some clarification would be nice.

(Wasn't sure if this was kernel or build related so I chose kernel)

I'm actually speculating when it comes to 210 and 240. The program told me 210 and the display was running at a higher density afterwards. I'm going to try some other stuff. Looking at pictures the 240 does look correct. I know our phones have a high res screen in a very small package.

Ignore everything for now because I am beyond confused and clearly have no idea how the Android display system works.

I replaced lcd.density=240 in the startup file because I remember reading in the kernel messages that it had no clue what that was. I replaced it with lcd_res=240 and it made everything smaller. But in build.prop the res is set to 210. I changed that to 240 and everything got bigger. Then commenting it out (which defaults to 160) everything go super tiny. So, my question is what do the startup arguments do, and how does the display settings in build.prop work...:confused:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] rpierce99:
The kernel has nothing to do with lcd.density, that's why it says it doesn't know what it is. That setting is used by userland, so when you changed its name, it reverted to default.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] JDog2pt0:
Yep. I take some solice in, well I believe, figuring it out this moring.

lcd.density is used and supercedes the setting in build.prop. When I canged it to lcd_res the phone had no clue what do with that and looked to the setting in build.prop. With the recent market issue I think it would work out better if the setting in build.prop were 240 by default and maybe have lcd.densty at 210 (210 looks much nicer IMO).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
210 is for the smaller screens. If you think it looks better, that's what the startup.txt option is there for. 240 is the 'correct' resolution for our devices.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] JDog2pt0:
Well, I've actually removed the startup.txt entry and set it to 240 in build.prop for the market. I've decided to stick with 240 mostly because, even though 210 looks nicer, of the sensitivity issues with our resistive touch screens and it makes everything easier to click. In the end it becomes a choice between funcitonality vs looks, and functionality wins.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
I thought the default for RHOD was 240... so you're saying doing nothing fixed the Market issues? Or perhaps since the build.prop sets one thing and we set something else "later", the Market is getting screwed up - and setting it manually in build.prop fixes it?

If it's the latter, then that's not good. That means no more generic builds... Oh well.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] JDog2pt0:
In build.prop it is set to 210. However, lcd.density in the startup.txt supercedes that so our phones use that setting over the one in build.prop. The market however, only reads the build.prop setting.

Hey everyone. Looking for a launcher with a scrollable dock that i can use on donut. Had to revert back to it while i wait for a new phone on my 32b. I would love to use 2.1+ but it gets extremely laggy.

so basicily, im looking for a version of zeam or a version of launcherpro that will support donut or any suggestions for a version of any launcher that will support what i need.

Thanks! :)

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] unxconformed:
Is anyone working on a way to use nvflash to go back to an original firmware (like what was available for many tegra 2 devices)?

The reason I ask is I have a prime that won't boot but is apparently stuck in APX mode. It shows up in my windows device manager as APX. No matter what button combination / time press combination I try, I can't get it to boot. It came this way out of the box, it never once has booted. The charge LED's in the power button work and I can feel it vibe when I hold the power button for a few sec. I also get a long vibe after holding the power button for 10 or 15 sec. Sometimes it shows up in the device manager as MTP device, but I can't get it to take the asus drivers. I always get an error saying the device could not be started.

It looks like there is a nvflash that supports tegra 3 floating around (but only for linux) and the official firmwares are available on the asus website. I have never used nvflash and don't have linux installed, but I'm going to try booting off an ubuntu live CD and see what I can figure out.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
look in the Prime Android developement section. answers to your questions are in there as people working on that right now. there's a thread on what u mentioned.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] biggem001:
my advice to you, dont even TOUCH NVFLASH.

if you don't know how to use the search button, dear god, you don't know how to use nvflash. its difficult, and i finally have a solid grip on it.. and i AM a dev
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] unxconformed:
You don't need to be so hostile, this is a friendly forum.

I've seen the thread in the dev section on nvflash. After page 2 the whole thread devolved into people rambling about trying to brute force the encryption key for the bootloader. The only person who had the linux build of nvflash that had tegra 3 support was already pm'd before posting here. Since that thread fell apart into people trying to figure out a way around the encryption key, I figured I'd ask if anyone was looking into flashing original firmware and not modified or rootable firmware. Since I had nothing to contribute yet, I put it in general and not in development.

The part I didn't understand is if flashing an original ASUS firmware was not possible with bootloader encryption.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dsmitty166:
Um maybe that's because you can't use the nvflash without the unlocked bootloader

Sent from my Inspire 4G with ICS!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] unxconformed:
Ok, well that is part I wasn't aware of. I wasn't sure if the it was similar to my HTC devices that had locked bootloaders but could be flashed with official firmwares using a zip on the SD. I realized the nvflash method was entirely different but I didn't know if the firmwares that asus provides on their site had the key in them and were possibly usable. But it sounds like that isn't the case.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dsmitty166:
Unfortunatly, we are at the mercy of Asus right now... :(
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aces_500:
After flashing stock with ODIN using the AIO toolbox my captivate gives a message

"Kernel Panic Upload Mode" with some of the letters covered by these values

"RST_STAT = 0x4

PWIC_IRQ1 = 0xfc

PWIC_IRQ2 = 0x0

PWIC_IRQ3 = 0x1

PWIC_IRQ4 = 0x0

PWIC_STATUS1 = 0x40

PWIC_STATUS2 = 0x2c"

before this my phone started giving weird problems and a bunch of applications kept force closing.

I restarted it and the phone got stuck in the CM7 load screen.

(I had Cyanogen Mod 7 flashed on it)

Any ideas...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4-2ndtwin:
Don't Use the AIO Toolbox.

U may need a JIG to get back into download mode (if u can't get there through the regular methods). Once in download mode I would recommend Flashing back to Stock and go from there.

Check my signature link below for some links that will help ya out.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrhaley30705:
Your not going to like the answer. Flash to stock, with a pit file, AFTER formatting the internal sd. Remove the external sd and Sim before you start.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ConeyKiller:
That happened to me. I just pulled battery and rebooted.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aces_500:
how exactly do I flash the internal sd with ODIN?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
If you want to wipe it clean, you can user Odin one click jf6 it has a "master clear" button plug in while booted and usb debugging turned on.

or you can boot into cwm go to mounts and storage and format sdcard.

Not sure what you're tyring to do...but that's the only thing Odin does to the sdcard.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aces_500:
ok i clicked master clear in the 1-click odin...it fails to do anything

odin just shows master clear and nothing after that(left it on for a while)

im still using the aio toolbox should i use something else?

Also I cannot boot into anything if i turn the phone on it immediately goes into kernel panic

i can only access download mode
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrhaley30705:
Reflash stock, without aio and with external sd and sim removed. After it boots up, take any photos, songs,etc off the internal sd, then format it.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aces_500:
I have been trying to use ODIN to flash to stock but now whenever it gets to the "SetupConnection..." phase it gets stuck. I have downloaded a different ODIN one-click to see if it has any effect but it did not.

Any thoughts or suggestions now? Is my phone bricked?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bruce Inman:
If Odin can't connect, you may have to reinstall the Samsung drivers.

Make sure you have Odin open before plugging in your phone to the PC in download mode. Also make sure you are on a rear USB port.

Try the attached drivers assuming you are on an I897.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4-2ndtwin:
No. U r not bricked.

Just destroyed my mytouch4g and had to send it in to the insurance company. Anyone want my battery? It doesn't fit in my new sensation so I have no use for it. Rather let someone make good use of it instead of throwing it away.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] VibrantOwnr:
ill take it..well how old is it..

------------strike that-----------

give it to someone who desperately needs it..i think i can manage with mine for now
[myTouch 4G Accessories] cronuslsd:
Wait so they sent you a sensation as a replacement for the mytouch 4g?

If so Ill be sending mine back as well. Mine went for a swim in the porcelain pool a week or so ago and has not been the same since.

In fact I went to two t-mo stores today looking for batteries (We no longer carry this phone or its accessories is what I was told) and even went to verizon to try and get a thunderbolt battery since they are the same (only had fat battery which wouldnt work because I wouldnt have the right back).

I ended up ordering a seidio "extended" battery when I got home...wish I would have seen this first.

May I ask how you "destroyed" yours? and did you return it to stock before sending it back?
[myTouch 4G Accessories] tw39515:
i could use it mines crappin out
[myTouch 4G Accessories] Jpimp150:
my battery is more than begginning to crap out on me. After a full nights charge, im lucky to get about 30min of talk time before it will just shut off on me. Only to turn back on in 3-5min with a battery level +50% (or so it says). Needless to say i will be buying a new battery in the next 48hrs if im not so fortunate. :)

prob a year old. works great though. never had a problem with it holding a charge. i got a day or 2 out of it with mild use. never seemed to lose a charge since the first day i got it.

dropped mine and the screen exploded because i tried to catch it and just slapped it even harder towards the ground. phone worked fine but the screen was like running your fingers across well a broken piece of glass. called tmobile and go through insurance but they didnt have any in stock so they offered me the mytouch4g slide or the sensation as a replacement as those were the closest match to what i had. and yes i flashed it back to stock and got it s-on before sending it back.

whoever pm's me first and pays for shipping its theirs. i have no use for it and it works great so i figured id rather help someone else out rather than throw it away. (i take all the good karma i can get)

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] bgalb:
My note has been running perfectly since I got it a month ago. No lag. SPen is accurate. Camera is good. Skype and VOIP are very clear and smooth. Camera videos are excellent.

Then-- a week ago my Nillikin TPU case arrived. It fits well and I used it in place of my very nice PDair Slipcase. I started getting slow response and hangups after an hour or two of continuous screen on. After this happened several times, I took off the TPU case and noticed that the entire phone body was very warm. With the case off, it usually gets just a little above body temperature in the upper part of the body.

I took the case off a couple of days ago and my lags/hangups disappeared. It seems to me that the TPU case is causing the processor to overheat and go into thermal slowdown (is there such a feature in the Note hardware?).

Anyone else with this problem might try using the Note bare and see if it makes a difference. I am back to using my slipcase and carrying it in my shirt pocket or cargo pants pocket. I like the feel of the bare unit better, anyway and am always careful when handling it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] honf:
That was a concern I had when I saw the case.

I removed my overclocks, but kept my undervolts intact. Device has been holding up good even when used for 2 to 3 hour HD movie playback over WiFi.

I'll try logging the temperature with the case on and off.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] planoman:
Interesting. I received my Note for Christmas and have not really spend long durations on it due to time off from work and travel but did get a tpu case for it. I will keep an eye on the temperature as I begin using it for longer periods of time starting this week.

Any update guys???

Any update guys :confused:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Souai:
ive been using mine with a TPU case for over a month now. it gets warm, but no issues at all. normally overheating is a concern for me with my electronics since its summer here in Australia, and we just had a few 40C hot days, but my note is still running fine.

if youre concerned but still want the durability of a TPU case, do what i did. buy the tpu pebble cases on ebay.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] V1ViD:
I've been considering trading my HTC Sensation for a Samsung Nexus S. Do you guys have any complaints about the phone hardware wise, build quality etc? The wifi death grip on this phone is about to nearly drive me insane. :o
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Drzfr3shboialex:
My friend has the nexus s and its awesome but I say replace your sensation with HTC or T-Mobile and just root and load a custom rom to make it smooth/smoother.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] V1ViD:
Did that already, phone is as smooth as a baby, but the wifi issue is hardware related, and oddly enough i use my phone landscape 80% of the time, which means wifi is non existent unless I hold it awkwardly. T_T.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hal752:
The Nexus S is smooth. But the Sensation XE, That I own is smoother than my old Nexus S. With more time and optimization the Sensation will be alot smoother.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashakeeluk:
That's exactly what I did, I had a Sensation for a few days as an upgrade from Orange, but when I saw a Nexus S on special offer and got one for my daughter, I found it much lighter and the screen better than the Sensation. So I bought one for myself and put the Sensation on Ebay.

I also like the Nexus S OS because it is clean without any manufacturers customisations.

I updated mine from 2.3.1 to 2.3.6 stock ROM. Will wait for the OTA ICS update later this month.

I have found the WiFi to be a bit weak, this apparently is a known problem, otherwise just feels faster than the Sensation.

In future I'm going to stick to the Google phones because I prefer a vanilla Android install.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] V1ViD:
Weak because of a software issue? I know the Sensation had a problem like that and a wifi range patch fixed that. Right now I'm seeing now downfall to trading my sensation for the nexus

So far, I've seen no reason to not trade, benchmarks are about the same if not better. One last question, hows the camera?

yeah, how is the camera, its 5mp compared to the 8mp in the sensation and theres no hd recording, but its still great for picture taking isnt it?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gonintendo:
I had to make the same decision and I haven't looked back. One thing about the sensation that drove me insane was the touchscreen sensitivity. I would always miss keys on the keyboard and I'd have to press harder than I did on my old vibrant. The nexus s has a much better digitizer and is much more responsive over all IMO. Comparable to the galaxy s (not surprising). I will warn you, the screen isn't the sharpest, but the saturated colors and deep blacks are worth it IMO. Aside from that, I can't think of any downsides.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Warren_Orange:
Thats the thing with HTC. I love the build and Sense (less so since I got ICS on my Nexus S) but the screens are a POS and thats the thing that you interact with the most the screen. It really makes or breaks a phone.

HTC really need to get an Amoled supplier or something similar, else they will fall way behind Samsung in the next few years.

I will not touch another HTC phone because of this.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] V1ViD:
I've never actually compared my screen to the nexus s. So to me the screen quality seems fine haha. . Although, I used to have the HD7, and the quality of that screen was HORRID.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Warren_Orange:
I had a Hero and the screen was nice.

Then I got a HD2 about 6 months ago and put Android on it. It ran it well but the screen was an abomination. Also, the digitizer was poor as it missed buttons pressed all the time. So I sold it and kept the Hero for another 6 months.

Then I saw the Nexus S for £199 and couldn't resist.

I can't get over how good this phone is.
