[HTC Sensation] EspElement:
Hello fellas. I want to propose to you guys my troubles and see if you are experiencing the same.

If I set a min and max freq speed on my sensation running 4.0.3. Every time I set a min and max in SetCPU or System Tuner Pro when I reboot it will set both min and max to the max speed. If I reboot again, it will be set how I set it. It will alternate between having a min and changing the min to the max.

What are your guys experiences with this?

Best Regards
[HTC Sensation] matt95:
stupid question but have you checked set on boot?
[HTC Sensation] EspElement:
No thats an acceptable question. Yes, I have tried both. In fact on Gingerbread I used a txt code in the init.d folder to dictate the speeds and voltages. I tried using that file and it doesn't work either.

Anything to do with the kernal? I have used stock on quite a few Roms and tried Sabastian's kernal with no luck.
[HTC Sensation] erto90:
Can't you use setcpu?
[HTC Sensation] EspElement:
I tried that. It doesn't stick. Always alternates between what I set and changing the Min to the Max set speed for some reason. It concerns me because I want my battery to last.
[HTC Sensation] dallashigh:
Have you tried CPU Master? Been working well for me on ICS.
[HTC Sensation] zaki0saad:
I also experience this, but I haven't been bothered to attempt to fix it lol

Sometimes it even sets all the values at 800mhz for min and max, and from my experiences I can say that it is very erratic :confused:

I just open System Tuner every time I restart/turn on my phone, and modify the values then :p
[HTC Sensation] SebastianFM:
Maybe you just check CPU frequencies too early after boot? HTC kernels have enabled 'boot-time' perflock which increases min and max CPU frequency to speed up boot.
[HTC Sensation] EspElement:
I will give CPU Master a shot.

zaki0saad - I am glad someone else is having the same issue. Lol I wasn't bothering before but now been trying to clean up some of the bugs that I have been dealing with. Lol

SebastianFM - I am glad you have responded to me. How long would u suggest to wait? Sometimes I will check it in the middle of the day to see my min is set to my max. Lol Does this have anything to do with my governor? Also, have you been able to make a custom voltage and freq file that is in the init.d folder? I know right now we are limited still with ICS due to the sourcing however I was curious what you worked up.

Thank you guys for your responses!
[HTC Sensation] EspElement:
It appears Sabastians suggestion was the correct one. If I restart and look at my frequencies right away then it may be unchanged. I close and re open and it shows the Min that I am looking for.

My last question would be this. Is there a way I can control freq in the init.d folder? Using the commands from my previous Gingerbread txt file doesn't seem to work properly. Below is what I specify.

[Acer Iconia A500] FireMedicDave:
I bought an HDMI cable today so I can put Netflix onto my TV. I have an older HDTV, from 2004. It's a Panasonic model number pt-47x54j. When I plug my tablet into it, the little Android dude pops up onto the TV and and says 720p? I checked the owners manual and it says that the TV is only capable of 1080i, or 480p and 480i. I plugged my tablet into a more modern HDTV and it works just fine. Crystal Clear. Is there any way that I can get my a500 to work on my Panasonic TV? Attached is a screenshot of my TV's owner's manual on the page where it talks about HDMI inputs. Thanks in advance...
[Acer Iconia A500] erica_renee:
From the best of my knowledge you can't change this.Athens beat solution I could offer is Logitech Google TV.it rocks.and 70.00 amazon.
[Acer Iconia A500] haag498:
It can't be changed without hacking the drivers -- and even then micro HDMI is only capable of 720p output. All you can do is use a different TV or an adaptor (probably cheapest, but may lower video quality).
[Acer Iconia A500] FireMedicDave:
Thanks. At this point, I'm just using my tablet to watch the movies on. That's good enough for me. Once my TVs start breaking and/or if I get this dream job that I'm currently chasing after, I'm going to get a more modern TV and all of my HDMI cable worries will go away. I put the Netflix App on my phone too. My 3 year old freaking loves it!! He is always asking for my phone to watch cartoons on. It's hilarious. haha

Of course, I'm still going to try to figure this crap out with my current TV. That's the fun part.
[Acer Iconia A500] netham45:
micro HDMI itself is capable of 1080p, but the tablet will only output 1080p if there's a 1080p stream (such as a 1080p movie). Netflix will not do 1080p, though.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kkaalldd:
A question to the "pro":

Do you think the lima drivers, scheduled to be release next week after FOSDEM in Brussells, will be of some interest for our SGS2, running a mali 400 GPU ?

This project is open source drivers ARM Mali 200/400 from reverse-ingeenering.

http://limadriver.org/

http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?pag...tem&px=MTA1MjQ

http://www.codethink.co.uk/

Any opinion on this?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WereCatf:
It probably won't be of general interest for a long, long while as it seems it's not even actually functional yet. And there are multiple devices with Mali chipset already out in the wild so getting the binaries for use with custom ROMs isn't really a huge issue.

Of course in the future having open-sourced drivers will be quite beneficial in the sense that it'll be even easier to do custom ROMs, and the open-source drivers could possibly be faster than the proprietary ones if the devs manage to optimize them well. It remains to be seen, though.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emptyhead41:
Sorry if this is hi-jacking the thread a little, but I'm interested in this area myself. The binaries (which I assume are like hardware drivers?) for hardware like the mali, they are the .ko files? Are the .so files needed too? I've got mali.ko and mali.so files on my devices stock firmware. Apparantly there's newer mali drivers out and I wanted to try to put them in a rom for my device that doesn't have an updated fw yet.

Would appreciate any help with this. Thanks

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] 58x1:
hi everyone

i have update my flyer to HC 3.2.1

but i dont have wifi signal...!!!

(no root)

please help me!!!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] jacobbones:
You mean it wont show your network when you go to pick network?

Were you able to connect to it before?

DO you have your router set to hide? That makes it not show up when doing a search for networks on any device.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] zonouzi:
I had WIFI before upgrade !!!

Hi there,

I have WIFI with GB, but after upgrade to HC, WIFI is not working properly. When I enable the WIFI, it first shows some WIFI routers for just some moment, and then all disappear, no more WIFI router in the list. This will repeat everytime I disable and enable the WIFI in the Settings. Using Static IP also hasn't helped, as there is no signal to be connected. I have used Wifi_Analyzer_2.5.6.apk in GB it works fine, but in HC it is working but no signal detected.

I should say on GB I was successful to get SMS, MMS and after using the method in XDA, also GSM calls. It worked fine with WIFI, and even I used Proxdroid on GB. But after the upgrade through OTA, WIFI has dissapeared. After rooting and CWM installation I may get SMS, MMS and GSM calls in HC again, but the WIFI completely is gone. I am so sorry as the HC is working better and more fuently than GB, I swear.

To more elaborate, I first install on my Flyer the following RUU, after reverting back to not ROOTed and S-ON:

RUU_Flyer_HTC_WWE_2.00.405.3_R_Radio_20.3501.30.089BU_3809.05.04.10_M_release_194964_signed.exe

The followings are the HTC Flyer specs after installing the RUU:

Flyer PVT SHIP S-ON RL

HBOOT-1.10.0000

MICROP-0050

RADIO-3809.05.04.10_M

eMMC-boot

May 4 2011,11:04:45

CID Num HTC__J15

Then I check for update and I got the following OTA:

OTA_Flyer_HTC_ARA_1.56.415.4-2.00.405.3_release_200262vatwy29bp43k4qvr.zip

Eveything is still working well. Like before. The only thing that has been added to GB with this upgrade is ARABIC support, as much as I may find. Then After getting the following OTA the problem start:

OTA_Flyer_HC_S_HTC_ARA_3.62.415.8-1.56.415.4_release_235477hb5j18pjknwgltkb.zip

It seems that WIFI hardware get off for some reason. I may need to change my CID Num to make it work.

I'm afraid so, because aprold is very kind of busy at his work and family (children grown up :)). Actually I'd like to considered to continue his work, but since I'm also got busy myself so I can't do it now. We have talk in person about that, but it seems not really soon to realize the development... Also I haven't seen his repository for the Nova12 source code..

So we should understand this circumstances and be more patient ;)

Please edit your post and remove the quote of mine. People might get confused if there are multiple versions of the list floating around.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] crobs808:
MIUI modifications are custom changes made by 3rd parties to modify the Android GUI/functionality and OS as a whole. Others can vote on this, but I don't believe this falls under the annoyance/issue category. Custom mods are really a different subject. Anyone else have thoughts on this?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] crobs808:
Tested/confirmed. Added as #16.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] iNsAnEmOd:
Are you serious?...criticism?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] crobs808:
I'm not certain what you mean by this response. Can you please clarify?

FYI - The intent of this list is to keep the issues to Android-OS related items that we'd like to see the developers fix or enhance to work better. This list should only contain issues/annoyances of the OS of official system apps themselves that we'd like to tweak or change. The whole concept behind MIUI is basically wanting to turn your Android phone, for exmaple, into an iPhone, by making the GUI behave like Apple. This is just an example as there are many various MIUI endeavors. Thes emodifications basically install custom apps and change the GUI of the OS. This would be considered an after-ROM addon and changes the fundamental design of Google's Android OS. That is not what this list is trying to get at. We want to make the Android OS, as it is intended, work better; not redesign the Android ROM altogether. I hope that makes sense.

For example - See Wintergon's previous post about not being able to mute a phone call. That's a defect/annoyance that should already work properly, so it was added to the hot list. Of course, comments, questions and other viewpoints are totally welcome.

[Motorola Droid Bionic] crobs808:

[Motorola Droid Bionic] Bfitz26:
I know that i am not the only one alone on this one but the wifi just randomly dissconnect drops and the only way to solve this granted this was a temporary fix... fxz wifi fixer.. wonder if this has something to do with the data issue toggleing etc..
[Motorola Droid Bionic] crobs808:
Hmm. I use wifi pretty much the whole day at work and at home and have never had any drops. They are different routers and ISPs as well. I would look into your wifi router settings. Try downloading the app named "Wifi Analyzer" from the Android Market and make sure your router is setup to use a Channel number that no neighboring wifi networks are using.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] crobs808:
OK. Then in that case they wouldn't make this list. You'd need to contact the developer of those apps or find working alternatives. Sorry, I know that is a bum answer.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] collindv:
Well, it is actually a problem with this build of ics that is causing them not to work

[Nokia Lumia 800] oskariunit:
Any tips for using itunes to sync music for lumia 800? I've Windows 7 and I've yet to found anything related to this matter. I can't stand zune as the logic behind it seems terrible, atleast after few years of itunes.
[Nokia Lumia 800] anseio:
Yeah, I don't think that's going to be happening any time soon. The possibility of being able to use other software to move music back and forth makes sense, but iTunes? ugh (personal opinion).

I, personally, do not use Zune to play back music or manage my 130GB library. i use it solely for the music I'd like to have on my Lumia 800. I've got mega storage space on my laptop, so it's a non issue for me.
[Nokia Lumia 800] sHaHiN786:
iTunes user speaking, I loved the iTunes too, but after purchasing the Lumia, I had to do the same thing, move to Zune, it's not that different at all once you get used to it, it's almost a complete copy, but the interface in Zune is a whole lot better, just synching videos is god damn awful, it takes literally 5+ minutes to sync a 2-3min video clip, impossible to sync a movie, it'll take at least an hour. Shout out if you need any tips. ;)
[Nokia Lumia 800] anseio:
It takes that long to sync videos probably because it's converting them at the same time. Check your CPU usage to know for sure.

Also, I'm willing to wager that Zune has better audio playback codecs. As of a year ago, iTunes was the worst in playback quality when using my ears as the testing tool.
[Nokia Lumia 800] sHaHiN786:
Nah, that's changed, iTunes has got better, Zune hasn't enough bass and the treble is too high, if you're not happy with the sound on iTunes, it has an equalizer which Zune is lacking, big downer, that and the video syncing is what made Zune horrible.

I shall check if it's converting. Cheers.
[Nokia Lumia 800] oskariunit:
Thanks for the reply. 1 of the reason I asked as zune doesn't find my album art. I've all the album art in itunes, but in zune about 50% is missing.

Also how the dj function works, it's flawless in itunes, I've set it to randomly grab 50 songs from main playlist with better rated songs playing more often. I cant even find the thing in zune. And the rating sucks, why only like/notlike ffs :(

Also I dislike the interface alot. Can't get it to function how I like. It doesnt even say anything if I try to add songs to playlist where they already are, which makes imo the playlist function quite bad. As I wanted to make playlist for my lumia, and randomly update it with songs. It gets quite big so cant remember all the songs, and now I've duplicates bla bla. Sorry, bit frustrated :).

Maybe I've to buy macbook so I can sync my wp7 device with itunes, sounds funny haha.
[Nokia Lumia 800] sHaHiN786:
An album art addict, to me, music ain't music without its album art. :D

Album art was a problem, until I found out on how to do it manually, time consuming but, where you have your music collection, on the right, where you have genre, artist, album etc......click on album, then right click and edit the album info there to whichever song requires an album art. It is manual, but if they're all in albums, this easily attaches the album art to the tracks.

As an iTunes user, the tabs "artists" and "albums" on the right will work to your best to get used to the interface, just fiddle around with them for a while, it's what I did, and you'll adapt to it in a few hours, even now sometimes my head gets baffled with the interface, iTunes is just plain simple.

Ok for the playlist, it's easy. First click the "playlists" tab on the right, once there create new playlist. Once you've done that return to your music collection, right click your tracks and add to your selected playlist or drag the tracks to the playlist icon on the bottom left corner. It takes time, I admit that it p***** me off for weeks, but since you got these tips, you'll get used to it earlier than me.

Give me a shout if you need more tips.:D
