[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] espionage724:
For 2D or 3D applications (like GTA III for instance), I would like to be able to tell what FPS the game is running at pretty much for benchmarking purposes.

A game called osu!droid can show FPS in the bottom right corner, but this option can be enabled or disabled via it's options:

I would figure Android SDK for Windows to have some sort of way to see this, but I couldn't find anything. If there is a way to display FPS via the SDK (or maybe an app), does anyone know of it?

GameBench records your fps and a bunch of other system metrics during a gameplay session! It's useful for identifying bottlenecks on your device.

Hi,

We just published an app called GameBench about 4 months ago in the play store. It does exactly what you are looking for and even more. Have a look.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mahdinanaz:
Hi All,

I'm looking for a similar app or piece of code where I can get the FPS in any application or even in the home screen. I've seen FPS Meter but it seems to be very inaccurate. Furthermore, I want to be able to log FPS frequently, i.e. every one second and I don't want to see the FPS only on the screen.

Has anyone seen anything similar to what I am looking for?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h8Aramex:
Just wanted to find a tool that does this, because I managed to install Game Tuner on my Note 4.

Unfortunately the Free tier is way too limiting. I mean I just want a single FPS number readout, that's it.

Benchmarkers would also love to use such a tool, they don't need much else, just record the gameplay, push it on youtube, there. Would be a nice marketing for Game Bench I think. (I know currently you are aiming for developers mostly.)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gamebenchjake:
Yeah - unfortunately we had a lot of medium sized developers abusing our free version, hence the limitation. It is unlimited until the end of this week (start of May) right now though. We've had the tool out there for free for a couple years now, and we actually do offer free access to journalists/reviewers :)

30 minutes of free recording per month is about 10 solid sessions a month, but we'll adjust it over time depending on how people are using it.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d3athsd00r:
Don't know about settings. But for SMS just check the market for one of the apps that backup your SMS/MMS/Call log to gmail.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ranafram:
Just download Titanium backup from the market (free version).

Once you run it hit the context menu button, and tap batch. From here you can do a full backup of all your data and apps.

Finally once the batch backup of everything is done upgrade your ROM and reinstall Titanium Backup, open it and navigate to the backup/restore tab and you'll see all your previouse backups. You can now restore anything you had preiciously including system apps, games and their data, messages, contacts, and pretty much anything on your phone. Just make sure that if you want the data back for the app when you go to restore it you tap restore app + data.

Hope this helps (:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kawyboy:
Hi guys,

I recently made a switch from sprint to att. I picked the skyrocket.

I had the evo4g from the 3rd day it was released and tried nearly every

rom there was. I am flash junkie.

What can you tell me or recomend for this new phone of mine?

I have installed CWM recovery, superuser, and titanium so far.

Not sure what rom I should try first. Feel like I was fluent in evo forum and roms. Not liking being the new kid.

Thanks in advance

:)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] 00mred00:
You are going to love the Skyrocket! Unfortunately the EVO being out as long as it has had a much more solid dev area.

The Skyrocket is still young but really doesn't take much to make it fly.

I currently use quickwiz along with faux's kernel.

I have mish mashed some themes from the tmobile t989 section and used some bits and pieces from our devs here to really make the phone mine.

Honestly there isn't a bad rom in the dev section, they are all great

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baghramdunks:
Ok good folks of xda, I've had my Note now for about a month. i previously had a Nexus S and a SGS2 but never had the nerve to root those phones. But seeing the capability those rooted SGN's out there have I'm trying to bite the proverbial bullet on this matter. I especially liked Rocket ROM and CM9 ICS MOD.

First off, I'm on a German-manufactured SGN running on KL7 Firmware. Second, I have a Macbook Pro. Ive read quite a few posts in regards to rooting KL7 but those were under "PC" conditions.

If anybody can please grace my question with their insurmountable knowledge on the matter, I would greatly appreciate it. :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itismadhan:
Hey, I am a mac user like you and I rooted my phone using a virtual machine (Windows 7) in parallels. Follow Dr.Ketan's post, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1329360. It shows what file you need to download for your RAM.

Another option is to use Mobile Odin Pro. With this you don't need a computer. Just download the ROM which you want and choose the CODE tar file from Mobile Odin Pro. Select the ever root option (CWM and SU) if you want. You are set.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baghramdunks:
OK but dont you need root access in order to use mobile Odin root? Any other options will be greatly appreciated.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YaocH:
Actually he mentioned to follow Dr. Ketan's post, which is immensely helpful. But here is the concise version as many people hate to plough through the loads of information that they can't make sense of on XDA. But hopefully as you move along you do appreciate what's out there and not just hope to get answers by just labeling yourself as a noob. No offense intended as I understand everyone has to start off somewhere and it's great if someone would be kind enough to lend a helping hand.

So here you go:

You can get a version of ODIN that's supposedly able to run on a mac here. http://thepiratebay.org/torrent/6629819/Odin_[Samsung]_for_Mac

1) Download this file and flash normally with ODIN http://www.hotfile.com/dl/136656907/6ff47c0/N7000XXKKA_N7000OXXKK5_ATO.zip.html this is a KKA file which might be sort of a downgrade, you might say, but its necessary as Samsung has already patched the loophole that allows for the exploitation to obtain root access.

2) Unzip this file and you will get a folder with the same name.

3) With USB debugging enabled and Unknown Sources enabled, connect your phone to the computer normally (ie not download or recovery mode)

4) Open the folder and then execute the 'not-rooted-yet' file.

5) Follow the instructions above and you will have a rooted phone.

You will want to download Mobile Odin which is good stuff and can be found on the market, or you can google to get the apk for umm... free. :D

As to how to flash new firmware using Mobile Odin so as to retain your root... I leave it to you to figure that out as it's really easy and just takes some reading. Nonetheless, do PM me if you require further help.

Cheers!

I used Fruit Cake Maker to make a ZIP of the ROM I'm working on. When I opened the ZIP I noticed that there were 2 files.

-Boot.img

-System.img

To Topic:

We know that Moto-Fastboot flashes IMG files (Boot.img, System.img, Webtop.img, etc), and the Fruit Cake Maker makes those files from your current system. So couldn't we make a fully automated ROM install?

Make a folder with:

And the script sorta looks like this:

System.img & Boot.img will be the ones from the Fruit Cake'd zip. I don't know if it works this way but feel free to test and try it. If it does work for you and you develop something with it, it couldn't hurt to give me a little credit...
[Atrix 4G Android Development] sspa:
some ROMs require some sort of post-processing (changing permissions, creating symbolic links of certain files, to name a few), they're done in update-script I believe, how to do these if your script is going to work? (can "adb" be used for this purpose?)

I want to use Heimdall, (links 1,2), with my SGH-T989, NOT Odin. I just need to find the appropriate Heimdall Firmware Package to use with this phone, since I don't think I can roll my own. There's a great thread here that provides Heimdall Firmware Packages for stock GT-I9000 firmware, but I've not been able to find anything similar for the SGH-T989. BTW, I don't care if it's a stock, or custom firmware package, just something so I can get my feet wet using Heimdall with my phone.

Thanks..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] starskyrob:
extract the tar. load into appropriate slots in heimdall
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jasnn:
I appreciate the response, however I tried to look into this, and I'm unsure of how to proceed. (Excuse any inaccurate terminology here..)

To be clear, what I would like to do, is use Heimdall to root my SGH-T989 and install CWM on it, just like the Odin method everyone is currently using. I assume that this means flashing, not an entire ROM, but a small amount of code, to the appropriate place on the T989. (Would it be correct to say that you're flashing a CWM "boot loader" to the phone?) I know that after using the Odin method, you have a phone with the exact same software on it as before, however you have root access to the OS, and you can boot into CWM recovery for flashing ROMs, or Themes, etc. So I know it's not a lot of code that initially gets flashed to the phone in order to accomplish this. (Would it be accurate to say you're only flashing a boot loader and an unrooted kernel?).

For example, the galaxys2root.com website has a howto for using Heimdall to root, the AT&T Galaxy S II (SGH-i777). The webpage howto includes the steps for installing Heimdall, and a Heimdall Firmware package, archived together in the GalaxyS2ATTRootZedomaxMacLinux.zip file downloadable from the webpage. I don't know if the zImage file included in the GalaxyS2ATTRootZedomaxMacLinux.zip archive, is the same Heimdall Firmware package I could use to root the SGH-T989. I've examined the file with a hex editor, but can't tell what's in it. Also, since it's possible to brick a phone by flashing the wrong thing to it, I've instead tried to ask if anyone already has an appropriate Heimdall Firmware package for accomplishing this.

If it's easy to create such a Firmware package using Heimdall, (I have it running on my Linux laptop right now), and the appropriate files, any help identifying the files and steps necessary to create the firmware package, would be very appreciated. Otherwise, if anyone knows of an appropriate Heimdall Firmware package for rooting the SGH-T989, please feel free to post the information.

Thanks again..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jasnn:
In case anyone searching for Heimdall SGH-T989 support, finds my posts. While it would be great to have Heimdall Firmware Packages available for the SGH-T989, it's not likely to happen until Heimdall can communicate correctly with the phone first. Hopefully it's something that will be added to a post 1.3.1 version.

Thanks..
