dd finished

Now formatting sd card

So, using the value i supplied it will take under 9 minutes to wipe 1 gb of data. So it is usable at this point and now know it can be done reasonablly. Tibor, if you want I can play with it more so that I create on which will wipe the heck out of your sd card it shouldn't take much, just cnanging the input file wouse and alerntating between /randon /zero /unrandon and maybe even /dev/null (assuming the last would do anything)

code:

dd nvidia if=/dev/null of=nvidia conv=noerror

btw, I'm slightly drunk atm, but I'm glad I finally got this pinned down to a usage state, I still want to play with it to see if I can refine it but now we all know that it can be done!

drunken edit: see attached, see here for what explanation of what is written.

ok yall so im gathering logcats for kineto (wifi calling) issues... I get a FC when trying to run the app, which i've got a logcat for.. this was my first time using the app so if your getting a different error make a logcat and send it to me so we can get Hell to fix it for us... asap por favor..
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cainG2x:
Not sure how to do the logcat thing, do I just run the logcat app and it'll find all the errors? My wifi calling was working till I tried to make a call then the icon just turned green and wouldn't connect. I ran the logcat app but not sure how it works? kept coming up with the same error but im not sure what it's for. I got it saved if you want it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] da-pharoah:
yes just upload the .txt here or pm it to me.. please and thank u
[T-Mobile LG G2x] IRASadPanda:
My Wifi calling app has always worked strangely.

But I don't use it much, have it set to connection preferred and I'm in a good connection area.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] da-pharoah:
ok so if you got a logcat send it our way.. hell is working on it right now as we speak...er write I mean..
[T-Mobile LG G2x] IRASadPanda:
Hell's got Wifi calling working in 1.4.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] da-pharoah:
good words of wisdom... just got a call from Hell on wifi calling and its working yes!! no issues he stated! stayed tuned my testers as soon as I get the new beta ill be forwarding it yalls way... :D

and lol no only if you have issues..

*sigh* I wish brut was still working on his apktool. Trying to theme this rom, but it gets too many errors on ICS. Looking like I'll have to build at least Contacts from source just to theme.

...and me without a linux box anymore :(
[T-Mobile LG G2x] da-pharoah:
+1 to this ICS is picky it seems... and that apk tool is sweet!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Волк:
Well I'm not familiar with themeing so, I'm not sure if it would help but there's UOT kitchen, it must be useful for you somehow.

Edit: I'm off to play with my script more, I would like the assistance of someone who has a 1 or 2 gb card, this way it takes less time to test and the time will be comparable to what it would take when I point this at the phone.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] da-pharoah:
have they updated for support for cm9?? I didnt see that anywhere... or maybe i missed it..
[T-Mobile LG G2x] MWBehr:
Thanks, but I'm doing a bit more custom work than UOT is capable of....and it uses apktool at it's core (everything does).

Appreciate the help though ;)

I've come to the pretty firm conclusion that for at least contacts, building from source is the only possibility if you're making any changes beyond simply image replacement.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ngphucok:
Everything works fine with this rom except the camcorder. I can use the camera but not the camcorder ... always says "camera error"
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Волк:
Cool, figured I'd toss it out there just in case.

Btw, the dd command I'm playing with, has some very interesting uses. DD is more "duplicate data" than destroy data, oh it can "destroy" it quite well (saw a post where someone bricked their phone by "of=/dev/block/mmcblk" (I guess it overwrote the entire mmcblk) though I don't see why they didn't get their hands on another phone and dd the info and re-write it with dd to the bricked phone), but you can also do stuff like back up your phone to .img's and such.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] da-pharoah:
ok beta testers check you pms!!! 1.4 beta is ready for lead foot action!!!... :D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] x0xhellx0x:
things for beta testers to test

Music app: volume up and down changes tracks with phone off

themes

Gps: GPS Lock

WIFI: Wifi calling if you can break it make a log cat

trebuchet : check speed

Profiles :check make sure profiles work

lock screen: should be smother

umm general smothness of the rom also i meesed up with notification sound on the build prop lol so there will be no sound just pick a new notification

Edit : nvm just rebooted everything is a go
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cainG2x:
Can't wait for 1.4 to drop.. Keep up the good work!!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sc2ascend:
UPDATE

All right still running pretty smooth. Very good battery life with Set CPU profiles and Juice Defender.

- Video recorder worked and I was able to save one video. However, now it says "Camera has stopped working" every time I try to record something.

- Camera does take and save photos though.

- Google Chrome Beta was crashing every time I pressed the tabs button. They have since released an update so I haven't checked back yet on that it might be fixed.

- At one point I left my phone charging during the night and in the morning it had the sleep of death.

- Device stayed on same screen for 30 seconds at one point (I think it was in the market) and then it reset and went to the boot intro.

Overall I am pretty happy with this build and it is fairly solid. I'm going to keep using it and for those of you looking to try ICS and definitely suggest giving it a go, it's easy to flash back if you don't like it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Волк:
Ok, guys, I'm really looking for someone to help me test my script, but they must have no larger than a 4GB micro sd card (for the sake of time consumption). The rest I can give you directions on what I need and how to do it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] stevew84:
Hey is there an app built into the rom that has the multi touch lock screen? Or is it part of a different app?

Basically can you extract the lock screen onto another ICS rom?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] x0xhellx0x:
nope its built in
[T-Mobile LG G2x] da-pharoah:
does it matter what size card >4gb??? only free one i have is an old 128 mb micro sd card... other then that they are all 8gb+
[T-Mobile LG G2x] MWBehr:
Lockscreens are pretty deeply integrated into roms. If memory serves correctly, it involves the framework-res.apk, Services.jar, and I think 1 other.

dl kies or drivers (personally i just dl drivers)

run odin and flash CWM

you can then flash a rom to get root or flash superuser to get root.

I did the 'unlockr' method but it took me like 6 tries to get su installed through CWM.

Keep trying if it fails. It will eventually work.

It isn't too much different from the other methods floating around the forums. Links work which is always a plus as someone else has mentioned.

Easiest method, which I just used myself today, is the ZergRush Exploit.

You won't be able to install custom ROM's because this method does not install a new Kernel with Recovery. But it is the easiest method I have found and gives you ROOT if that is all you are looking for. It can be found through the stickies, but here is the link.

From 1st hand experience on a T-MO GS2 (and also what others have posted), the ZergRush has fewer successes on the T-Mo units. I tried ran it last night on a new phone and didn't do anything. I ended up using one of the other rooting methods. Not sure if it's hit or miss, or what the issue may be.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Chochiwpg:
This method doesn't work for rooting the new 2.3.6 any more. Apparently they fixed the ZergRush exploit. I have the T989D Telus version of the phone. I believe it was running 2.3.5 and it work beautifully.

Hi,

I was very happy to get the asus transformer prime. Switching menus, in app performance were very good...until i tried some very heavy browsing (espn.go.com/boxing for example or theverge.com). Let me tell you, the browsing on this thing is horrible. I really don't understand. Everything else is so fast, it is actually faster than my ipad 2 and samsung galaxy tab 10.1 for in app performance but when it comes to browsing, it is so sluggish. My samsung tab 10.1 on honeycomb kills it. I really wonder, will this be fixed in the next update or its just like that. I tried disabling flash, performance increases by 5x...is flash 11 not optimised for ICS? Also, chrome doesnt lag as much as the stock browser. How will this be fixed
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Keion:
Weel, Hw accel might be causing issues and if the site is mem leaking, that could also slow you down. And flash is optimized for ICS but I don't think its well done. Oh, and make sure you got performance mode enabled.

Sent from my tablet thing with XDA Premium.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
I use mines in balanced mode and leave that hardware acceleration option in developers settings off. My browsers are super fast. Even stock. Really no matter which one I use. My favs. Are ICS+ browser and Boat browser. At the beginning stock browser use to be slow n i hated n hardly used it. Now after ICS, its fast as a mofo. Couldn't believe it. I use it alot now or ICS+ browser.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ilostmypistons:
^

My experience with the prime have been exactly the same
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ramih2085:
i have tried all the things you guys said, it helps a little bit but it's not as good as my samsung tab 10.1...I find it really strange, my prime is killing the tab 10.1 in everything except the browsing. Btw i also noticed that i am on the build of 17 january version.11 from canada. I tried to make a firmware update but it says that this is the latest version availab.e Do you know if the next update is supposed to help the performance issues?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] chamberc:
Ditto except I use Dolphin...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mrkool44:
any update on this?

I am having same issue as you - very laggy browsing and even some lag in youtube/mail
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] texstar:
I use Boat browser in balanced mode and it performs quiet well. I have to say at this point in time none of the browsers work as well as Chrome or Firefox on my Linux box. I suspect this will change as apps mature and optimized for ICS.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] elcom:
try opening more tabs

Personally everything is working super smooth on my prime. Tried checking out the websites mentioned and they all are super smooth on my prime.

I recall reading somewhere that it helps to open more tabs in the browser. That way all four cores kick in instead of using just the fifth core for low cpu usage apps and tasks.

Just a thought.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] aznmode:
Are you still on honeycomb? I think the OP was since is the only reason i can think of why he has browser lag. Should be smooth on ICS. As far as youtube and email what kind of lag are you getting?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] zerodameaon:
Chrome Beta in balanced or performance and its really fast, power save its still good but not as good.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mrkool44:
returned prime

after resetting it several times and making a post here (which a mod deleted lol b/c i told the truth about the problems i had with my prime...i guess honesty is not allowed here?)

I ended up returning the prime back to staples.

it was running ICS latest ver shipped. i used chrome beta. i used dolphin hd. i used stock.

all of them were jittery and laggy. pinch zoom was even lagging.

My samsung galaxy was better in terms of performance.

Also, I bought a transformer tf101 last year..the orig ver.. and guess what? i had the same problems.

it was laggy...youtube vids were stuttering..browsing was weak... and now..with the new prime a year later..it still blows.

it was junk...web browsing on it was a joke...very laggy and just not very smooth in terms of scrolling ..it was just hard to use.

the colors on the screen looked faded out compared to other android tabs.

overall..just not a tab that u can depend on when youre in a hurry and need to check the web without having any glitches...

i ended up buying ipad 3. its way way better than prime..sorry guys.. :)

cool story bro
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] htcplussony:
Techreport did a review of the original Transformer with Ice Cream. They made several comments about the Prime with ICS having issues that wasn't in last years model with updated software.

I could look at charts showing how great the Tegra 3 is too but it won't make my studdering browsers go away.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
last year model has its own ics issues that prime doesnt have. it was actually a huge problem. several tech articles on it. says just recently released a patch to hopefully fix it.

No device immune to sw issues.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] PolishPoet:
Same here. It's fast.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BarryH_GEG:
Basically, unless apps are Teg optimized, the performance benefit isn't that dramatic. Games and local video playback will be greatly improved (over Teg2), everything else not so much. Nvidia never met their sales targets with Teg2 and, with it almost April, probably won't hit their already lowered Teg3 targets for 2012 either. They can show optimized benchmarks and a handful of optimized games playing exceptionally well all they want. If 5% of apps available are optimized it's all an illusion. App developers never rallied around Teg2 so there's no reason to believe they'll rally around Teg3 either. The S4 creamed Teg3 in all but optimized benchmarks which, in everyday use, is how most people will judge the performance of their devices.

And we already know that, in your mind, there never has been and never will be a tablet as fantastic as the Prime, a chip as stupendous as Teg3, or a chip maker as skilled as Nvidia. Let's go with that.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Zephyrot:
I just opened both webpages in eco mode and both loaded, scrolled and worked smooth.

I'm using stock browser and HW acceleration enabled.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] buxtahuda:
I go back and forth with hardware acceleration, I never notice much of a difference either way but I also don't look all that hard. Generally use ICS Browser+ and Opera Mobile. I do fine, the only site I've noticed issues with is the desktop version of Photobucket, it takes forever for the pop-ups to show up around pictures.

Other than that, I generally browse a few different sites and have XDA Premium HD going at the same time and have no issues. I have noticed lately that the trackpad likes to lag out horrendously though.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] GeorgOrwel:
I would check the WiFi signal level/speed. If your are close to the limit on your WiFi range you can get awfully slow browsing.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
Ahh, you finally learning Watson. Glad you came to your senses...lmfao. by the time S4 finally shows up tegra4/Wayne chipset will be announced and released. then once again Nvidia will take the crown. Funny how majority of new tablets announced will be using tegra3 chipset. and this is even outside of Asus themselves. Nvidia about to saturate the market with their superior Soc.

plus hold up, lol, no one even worried about S4. they already experiencing major delays and Manufacturing setbacks on that chip. I've posted articles on that weeks ago. so don't expect a showing from them anytime soon or in very limited numbers. Nvidia already prepped and ready to go full steam ahead. its already looking like Nvidia will continue to hold the crown as most powerful and battery efficient chip on the Android market today. probably at least 6 months. by the time competition finally gets off their a$$ and release, Tegra4 will be ready.

I'm sticking with Nvidia who is already a proven game changing leader in the more complex PC GPU industry. they not the top GPU dog there for nothing...lol. they invented the term GPU ;)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BarryH_GEG:
"Majority?" "Saturate?" Based on what? IDC just issued revised tablet sales projections for 2012. Apple will sell 60MM iPads. Android will sell 46.9MM tablets. Of those, 9.5MM will be KFs, 17MM are expected to be $299 or less "bargain" Android tablets, and 7.5MM are expected to be sold by Samsung. So 34MM Android tablets (72%) won't have Teg3 in them and most likely any other Nvidia chip either.

What tablets has Teg3 been announced in?

- Three Asus tablets (if the Prime lives)

- Two Acer tablets (one due in March in the EU, the other June)

- A 7" Toshiba with no release date that, if priced like the Excite, will sell in the dozens

- Lenovo tablets only available in China

- A rumored Sony tablet (their market share's like 1%)

- An HTC tablet that wasn't discussed at either CES or MWC

Motorola's not announced a next-gen SoC for their tablets but even if it was Teg3 their sales would still come out of the 28% left after the KF, $299 or less, and Samsung's combined 72%. And since 3/4G tablets make up between 1/3 and 1/2 of sales depending on the region, subtract those from the numbers because even Asus is using Qualcomm vs. Nvidia when broadband's required. Nvidia's greatest hope in the tablet space was the 7" $249 Asus tablet that's been killed in deference to an even cheaper Google sponsored effort.

I know, Wayne's right around the corner, they're working on a 3/4G imbedded chip, blah, blah, blah. Anything new from Nvidia will be out long after Qualcomm, Samsung, TI, and now even Huawei have their chips out. And mobile makes up less than 10% of Nvidia's sales. They might be great at other things but that certainly doesn't guarantee their success in mobile. Be glad you're a customer and not a stockholder.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] shinzz:
You do realize Tegra 4 is being developed (& are even creating two version) to compete with Krait Quad-Core and Intel's Dual-core x86 SoC?? Krait Quad-core is expected to be released at the same time as Tegra 4.. along with Intel's following soon after...

And as far as their GPU performance goes.. they have ways to go IMO.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] buxtahuda:
Please don't. Flaming the flame posts only strokes up the fire. No need in stooping to their level. Etc etc blah blah

Really though, if there are pictures I'd prefer them to be of the Prime and relevant info or competing tech. No point in junking the forum any more than it already is.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mrkool44:
video?

to all the guys saying 'my prime is so fast' etc

can you make a video of you surfing the web on your prime?

id like to see a prime that surfs the web as smooth as an ipad... p

any takers?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
there's already plenty out there. just search YouTube. or look at the latest videos from tech site comparing A5x chip to tegra3. I know from personal experience prime loads up pages and browses faster than my Ipad. Prime is a very fast n slick device. UI scrolling is fast n lag free. ICS did a great job if fine tuning things.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mrkool44:
I've seen many videos comparing prime to ipad2. But none showing browsing on prime...can you provide a link ?

Most of them never show actual browsing, rather, they show loading a webpage and very basic pinch/zoom and it generally lasts about 5-10 seconds of the review...the rest goes on to focus on UI etc.

I want to see a good 1-2 minute sample of web browsing. When I used the prime, it was very choppy and pinch /zoom was noticably laggy.

But if you only look at it for 5 seconds...its hard to point out that.

A thorough browsing test is what im looking for...and if you have a link, id love to see it.

I am willing to post up a video of web browsing on my ipad3 to compare if you want to do one with your prime ?

---------- Post added at 05:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:41 PM ----------

Here is a video I found of a Prime tablet browsing..

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-VnvG4B9AOg

As you can see..its pretty choppy and you can see the page rendering is lagging...(there are white blocks as he scrolls down..that fill up with text/images a few seconds later..as he scrolls down.. lol.)

Also, note there are many times he attempts to scroll and his input is not recognized and he has to do it again and again until page actually scrolls.

Is that what you guys call fast?

Maybe my definition of fast is different that prime tab users?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] buxtahuda:
All I have to say is that Chrome is still in beta. So, that's not too valid a video.

My Prime only acts up on certain sites, and I'm pretty sure those sights have some mem leaks so it's not the Prime's fault regardless of how debilitating it gets on those sites.
