[Windows 8 General] Award Tour:
What are you talking about? They have everyone for Windows 8. Android tablets aren't selling like their phone counterparts, are OEMs are waiting impatiently to jump on board with Windows 8. Windows still has many major productivity software for 3D rendering, design (pick any type), video, etc. Android has ICS's movie make and super gimped up Adobe touch apps. Android tablets are nothing more than giant mobile phones. Windows 8 tablets will be Metro touch apps that equal Android mobile apps plus all the desktop software we professionals use.

x86 is miles ahead of arm. as soon as dev's make arm ports of x86 apps i dont know if i will bother with windows 8 on arm until then
[Windows 8 General] galtom:
2 questions/thoughts... call it what you will.

1. ARM ver of Win8 will (or not?) be way more closed than current (traditional Windows approach) - sort of like Windows Phone is now. Meaning if you want an app you have to get it of the store (ONLY) not from any website like today with Windows. True or False?

If true... imho this is a very bad news for ARM ver of software.

Let say you live in Europe and you want/need program that is specific for US store only. What will you do in such case? Even iOS (bad, closed system, controlled by BIG, BAD APPLE) is more frindly about this tnah Android or Windows Phone.

2. Is it possible (for current ARM SOC's) to emulate x86 (in order to get older soft to work)? I dont think so.

On the other hand x86 should be more than capable to "pretend" it is ARM device . In such case having x86 W8 onboard means we cen als use ARM software if we want to need to (unless both x86 and ARM W8 will be lock tight - but than why would anyone jump of Win7????).
[Windows 8 General] dazza9075:
fact is we have no idea what RT will bring to the table or what the software will or will not be able to do, but if we look at the hardware we see a few notable differences

ARM, ultra low watt consumption (potentially good battery life), High performance BUT less grunt so to speak, cheaper price point

x86, higher power consumption(potentially a shorter battery life compared to ARM), High performance but more bang per buck, more expensive price point.

there is a distinct difference between the two models, a difference which I think will be very important. Most every day folk will not need more than ARM, for everyone else including many business users, x86 is there

Being able to run x86 code is my primary concern, im not talking heavy work, the programs are small and light, but x86 is essential for the time being for it to be flexible.

However provided RT isn't completely tied down like WP is AND is at a reasonable price point, I think it will make great inroads in the Low/Mid range tablet market.
[Windows 8 General] Lurk:
I started looking into tablets after September last fall. I wanted something that would give me the most bang for the buck, or at least the minimum compromise. Things broke out in 3 general sections as mentioned previously: ARM, Atom/AMDCxx and X86/AMD (higher end iCore style).

As Windows 8 goes, there will be no real difference between Atom and X86. The instruction sets are the same. Both will support Metro and Windows Legacy apps.

ARM will only support Metro.

Price seems to break along those lines, but I found an exception.

I expect the ARM versions to run in the neighborhood of $400 and less; the Atom class to be in the $400 to $800; and the full X86 to be $600 and up. Of course equipment will also impact this price.

Probably, the most significant piece of equipment will be the screen. While pricing current machines for ARM and Atom (as well as X86), the 1366x1024 resolution was rare and it is required for a split screen feature of the Metro interface.

In the end, I picked a Dell Duo with a dual core hyperthreading Atom processor because it had the required resolution and the price was down as low as anything I could find. I also got a keyboard, but suffered the weight and short battery life.

Performance has been good in most situations, though tinkering with Unity 3d seems like a bad idea on the Atom with Windows 8 (but it's not a release OS yet). And performance lags a little in Unity 3d game execution, too.

Metro looks good to me so far.

So, for an iPad style consumption usage I think the ARM is probably going to work great. Dual core if you can get it.

For a little heavier usage and legacy aps, you'll want an Atom type systyem. I'd say dual core minimum.

And if you want superior performance with no compromise, as always, expect to put the green on the table.

How does internet video work for you on Win 8? What Atom is in your Duo?

I couldn't get netflix or hulu working well on an N280.

I am running 8 on an e-350 (Acer w500), and video works great, but the touch screen is poor around the edges like a number of other Windows 7 tablets where they were designed for accuracy in center, instead of across the board.

---------- Post added at 11:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:11 PM ----------

I actually expect a number of our business users on RT. We won't push them to it, but the option will probably be given.

Today they use:

Web based tools.

A few silverlight sites.

Office

We're likely to port our silverlight apps to METRO, first one took a little under a day. At that point, if they wanted an iPad like device, with the new news about sideloading: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/windowsstor...deploying-metro-style-apps-to-businesses.aspx

It is a pretty good fit.

Obviously designers, ops, etc are not going to find RT sufficient, but I expect a subset will. We have some that only use iPads today anyway.
[Windows 8 General] galtom:
Same question.

I had Asus 1201N (but it had dual core Atom 330 onboard + Nvidia ION card) - no problems with any video but it was HOT, VERY HOT and very noisy.

I kept Samsung NC10 (same atom chip as in 1201N but single core only and no ION). Watching any video on it is a nightmare :-(. Even YT is not working well.
[Windows 8 General] Lurk:
Internet video seems to be very good. Currently, things run fairly smoothly. The connection speed is a bigger impact than the processor speed.

Odd item. I just tested real quick and I can now play YouTube videos in the Metro browser. I guess they have the HTML 5 delivery working.

HD on Netflix is a little choppy right now and stutters in the desktop browser. It could be the connection.

N570 @1.67ghz

I worried about performkance. That's why I went for a dual core at a minimum. The earlier Duo had an N560(?) at 1.5ghz. I don't think it would be enough. Again, it might be the connection, but @ HD right now, it's borderline.

I haven't experienced any issues around the edges ... or any where on the screen. I am pleased overall with the unit and was a bit disappointed when they stopped producing them in December. But, it was largely a test unit.
[Windows 8 General] michiganenginerd:
Thanks for the info Lurk.

Clover Trail pics

I found this article while browsing on tabletpcreview forum.

An online writer Padmx Max, got access to Clover Trails and took some pics of the board and the processor: here is the link

http://www.padmx.com/portal.php?mod=view&aid=1707

The processor is actually stacked under the memory so you can't really see it.

But it is an interesting idea.

Not sure it is Intel Z2580 or z2760 tho.

Further Information

Not working / TODO:

SIM Toolkit (menus will display, but options/commands do not process properly when selected).

Battery drains: CyanogenMod doesn't report the battery status properly. Please read this post.

Not working / WONTFIX:

Kies. Don't expect Kies to support any custom ROMS.

Before you ask...

I have no interest or intention to further "mod" the ROM with any kind of hacks or customizations (like custom apps, themes, Swype, etc.). My only aim is to have a 100% stable port of CyanogenMod code. Any such requests will be ignored.

Reporting bugs

You must follow these instructions exactly, or I will ignore your requests. Provide the following information:

The version of the ROM you are using (to confirm that you have the latest release)

Report any customizations you have made to the ROM (themes, system apps, etc.)

Describe the problem clearly, including steps on how I can reproduce the issue.

Provide a logcat from your system taken just after the issue has occurred. To take a logcat, you enter this command from your PC: adb shell logcat -d >c:\logcat.txt. Copy and paste this log to pastebin.com, and provide the link.

If I ask you to re-test the issue after a data-wipe, do the following: reboot into ClockworkMod, perform a full backup, then data-wipe, reboot and retest the issue, giving a new log if necessary. You can then reboot into ClockworkMod and restore your data backup.

i will try this,but whats different from Squadzone Cm7?? btw,thank you very much :p for apreciating hats off for you bro

sorry for my bad english
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] psyke83:
I tested squadzone's RC4 build - it was nice, but I noticed some problems that I already fixed in my galaxy5 port (the hardware is very similar). I already mentioned a few of the bugs in the blue text of post #1. I also don't really like when Google apps or other third-party apps/customizations are bundled in a ROM - my CM7 build is as close to an official build as possible (no added apps, themes, modified effects).

My kernel is quite simple, based on teamhacksung's source with patches to fix some bugs related to USB tethering and just the best IO/CPU schedulers added. Overclocking is not added to my kernel, but I may add it later on, once I've had time to test overclock stability on this device.

If you don't care about "purity" and you like all the extras included with squadzone's ROM, feel free to continue using it :). It's nice to have more choice, I think.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Junnie:
damn,this is what I was looking for dude !! no bundled apps on ROM,only pure ROM from source :D..hell yeah i agree with you bro !!:cool: i think i gonna love your project dude,if you continue this project? good news if this updated :D
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] jrandroid:
I like you bro..

And I'm pretty sure I will like your work also..

much much better ... more power.

Btw .. I like that word... "Purity" = "Cleanliness"
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Junnie:
i`ve tested it , and hard to say..ITS AWESOME !!!

Pros

Density fit for our phone

clean UI

apps working great

no more scatter video

Cons

a bit laggy dude :(

can you make the kernel and make it more smooth ?? :D i really love your ROM
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Graffiti Exploit:
Could you upload screenshots? I really want to see how this turns out.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] motorazrv3:
Thats not fair. ;)

I loved cm7 rc4 rom from Squad. But as you mentioned there are still to many bugs. For example camera has not sometimes, it has always wrong oriantation. No radio, etc.

Therefore I went to emanoN v3. This rom is really good. Now emanoN has an update and cm7 comes back newly and clean programmed.

I will give it a try. Thanks for your time and support offering us this rom.

[Samsung Galaxy Mini] trance89:
the best cm7 build until now :)

but i have i question: the lockscreen seems not working, i think it's turned off because i can wake up the phone only with home or power button, and i'm on home screen immediately without unlocking

i checked in cyano lockscreen settings and there is no lockscreen on/off option

however, on the one hand it's good too because in my pocket it's impossible that home or power button gets pressed

so it's a bug or feature?

and big thanks for this clean cm7 build, i appreciate your work
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] jrandroid:
Actually i find this post the best...

Only ... the problem is...

can you return the density like tj_style density of cm7?

its hard to get over with... a change in density i mean.

looking forward on your next update!!!..

i love this !! were getting cm7 updates...

[Samsung Galaxy Mini] kitrax59:
Normally, apps2sd does not move all files of the application to the sd card. It still leaves some parts of the application on the internal memory. Are you using app2sd by sam lu or are you using app2sd scripts? Do you have an ext partition on your sd card?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] AlkaDragos:
Sorry for breaking the thread like this, but ROM comes with Busybox no? I need only Script Manager and V6Supercharger script. Which option from V6 you've used? Also can you provide stats from Quadrant with same configurations? Thank you. :)

It really seems like a good idea for this. I would like a pure and clean CM7 ROM with all the things working. A little tweak and some nice apps, would be perfect. Keep up the good work subpsyke.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Hari23:
Yeah by sam lu.

I got a sd-ext in my home directory though not sure thats the sd card.

I heard partitioning sd card affects the performance of the card ?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] AlkaDragos:
If you see that folder it means you didn't partitioned it. You must do that manually...It shouldn't affect the performances IMO.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] kitrax59:
It does not affect the sd card performance. You are just utilizing the space to be used by the system. Try using the ungaze script or amarullz script. You will see a big difference. With this scripts, the size of the sd ext partition will be the size of your internal memory.. :D I tried using app2sd apps before but never did the job for me..

s2e or Dark Tremor apps2sd can also be an option..
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Midomad:
i cant find radio fm in last release :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] psyke83:
Yes, it wasn't included due to an oversight. I already had hotfix1 planned to improve wireless, so I'll add the FM app to the hotfix as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] mebitek:
Yes u need to install just script manager and v6 supercharge script.

I used option 6 that is the suggested one for our mini

I got 1980 on antutu benchmark

P.S. I have a little problem. someone expericene market download error 492? I cannot download nothing from market. I notice to you that this problem appens right now, two days after I install RC0 v1.0. some ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] :
So, I installed latest RC0 and this are the tweaks & scripts I'm using bla bla, and this is myresult in Quadrant:

Overclock @ 787MHz (won't go higher:()

Supercharger V6 (November release - Option 6)

Lag Nullifier

Quadront score: >2000:D

Antut score: 2152

I have no lags at all...and phone is super fast (I was kinda surprised!!):)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] kitrax59:
Hey psyke.. If I flash v1.1, will the custom scripts like app2sd in init.d be removed as well? Im kinda worried if it does remove the script.. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Midomad:
ok thanks in advance :)

ps: you're rom is just perfecttt ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] psyke83:
What script are you using exactly? If the script is put in /system/etc/init.d, then a ROM upgrade will always cause it to be wiped, yes.

It's smarter to put your scripts in /data/local/userinit.d/ instead, so they will never be deleted on ROM upgrades. S2E puts its own mount scripts in this place, which is why I prefer it over apps such as Link2SD, as such apps don't do things the "smart" way.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] psyke83:
Hey guys,

v1.1 hotfix1 is released to improve wireless connectivity, bring back the FM app, and fix a couple of problems due to a mistake I made during the build.

Wifi should hopefully work more stable now, and it will connect properly to access points that use a hidden SSID.

The FM radio app is back, and is still working properly, just like the 1.0 release.

Various proprietary files have been upgraded and added. I was using older proprietary file versions during my testing for the Maps issue, and forgot to put back the proper files after fixing the problem.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] psyke83:
The Quadrant score seems great, but keep in mind that the results are buggy for CyanogenMod phones ;). The app skips the encoder/decoder tests completely, skewing the score. Keeping in mind that for these tests that lower scores are better, I think the app misinterprets the skipped tests as having a score of "0". The other tests should be accurate, though.

Antutu's final score is accurate, as far as I know.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] :
I also made a complaint 4 days ago in which I said that games are lagging alot and now Raging Thunder is blazing fast and lag free...so thanks to subpsyke for this ROM and thanks to zeppelinrox for SuperCharger V6 :p:cool:
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] kitrax59:
I am experimenting with the amarullz script, ad2sdx.. Basically it moves the app data to sd ext but leaves the dalvik cache in the internal memory (for performance purposes as the author says).. If I place the script on the userinit.d, would it still retain the modifications it made? If you can take a quick look on the script and check what modifications it does then you'll know what I mean.. But if upgrading the rom breaks the modifications it made, then I'll have to switch to S2E.. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] motorazrv3:
Flashed version 1.1. Played a bit. 2 things i have to mention.

1. Every time i reboot the phone the camera has wrong oriantation. I can fix it by killing the camera app and start it new. Now the cam has correct oriantation. On next reboot all starts from the beginning. Cam has again wrong oriantation.

2. When i turn the phone 90 degrees to the left (power button on top and volume buttons on bottom) pressing the volume+ button reduces the volume. Pressing volume- increases it.

On all other ratations (180 270 and 0 degrees) pressing volume+ increases and pressing volume- decreases.

Anybody out there noticing that to?

edit

more explication to point 1.

When i start the cam app, the little cam and videocam icon show the correct orientation. what i mean is when taking a photo. after that there is a preview picture at the right bottom corner.

The picture there is shown in wrong orientation. It is shown 90° left. After killing and restarting the cam the pictures are shown in correct orientation.

I hope you can understand what i mean.

Will add an example with pictures later.

---------- Post added at 11:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:53 PM ----------

Here are the pictures.

Rebooted the phone and started the cam.

Phone hold vertically

Phone hold horizontally

Now after killing the app and starting again

vertically

horizontally

Now i am confused. Why?

The pictures are saved vertically and horizontally equal.

But when i look at the photos using the gallery app, photo 1 and 2 are shown different.

On picture 1 and 2 my monitor is shown 90° left oriented (like 1 and 3 here).

Picture 3 and 4 are showing the monitor the way i am looking at it (like 2 and 4 here).

edit2

I restored a backup from emanoNv4. Made 2 new Fotos.

As you see the pictures are saved equal. Same orientation like the cam on cm7.

But when i look at the 2 photos above in gallery app on emanoNv4 rom my monitor is both times shown with orientation from picture 2.

I am really confused.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] psyke83:
From past experience (I wrote and maintained my own app2sd script), I can say that you will never get satisfactory performance when putting /data/data on the SD card. The MMC interface is not good at doing small random reads/writes, which is the typical usage case for application data. The class/speed/system buffer setting of your SD card won't really help.

The opposite way works fine for me: putting the dalvik cache and apps on the SD card, and keeping /data/data in internal storage. Either way, S2E can do what you want (old version pictured, but the same options exist in the latest version):
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] psyke83:
That's a bug, and I'm looking into it.

That's not a bug - it's a feature. The volume keys operate in the direction that the on-screen volume slider moves for whatever orientation you're using on the phone. If you don't like it, you can turn off this behaviour in CMParts somewhere.
