Re: QSD 8250, Adreno 200 hardware-related proprietary ...

In order to provide enthusiasts with recent improvements made to Snapdragon's Adreno graphics drivers, Qualcomm has made the updated Adreno 2xx graphics driver binaries available here. Note that you will most likely need to be a developer to take advantage of these new drivers since they'll require integration with the CAF release of ICS, but Qualcomm is providing these driver binaries "as is" to those of you who have requested them.

Hey, ICS4Desire developers, is that enough?

[Desire General] cynaru:
Let's be optimistic!
[Desire General] orgler:
Just gave it a try with latest dk_zero_cool-rom. Took the files from the package and pushed them to the appropriate places. System came up, but running chrome seems more buggy than with the old version. There seem to be lots of locking and out-of-memory exceptions. will give tiamats latest kernel a try now...

Update: no luck with Tiamat_Bravo-v031412 as well. I've attached a logcat if anyone is interested in looking at this
[Desire General] thantos2024:
I suspect that just pushing the files directly might be buggy, people will probably find that with roms will need to be recompiled against these binaries to get the most out of them. Could well be wrong mind you but certainly think wuld be the most logical step
[Desire General] orgler:
I'm not sure if a simple recompile will help. These are all dynamic modules, as far as I understand this it shouldn't make much difference. especially since the package doesn't contain any headers but just the libs and some firmware.
[Desire General] k3lcior:
I'm pretty sure atleast kernel has to be "reworked" for new drivers.
[Desire General] boscovich:
I wouldn't bet one euro on that! Legendary Qualcomm
[Desire General] Sally Mack:
While this is better than nothing, let's first give the talented devs at XDA a crack at this before passing judgment. Hopefully once they work their magic, we can get a more polished product in a shorter timeframe.

I'll be impressed if ICS can be implemented on the desire as well as gingerbread was. Let's not forget that the desire launched with Android 2.1 (maybe even 2.0 in some areas?) if I'm not mistaken.
[Desire General] stankyou:
Well I be damned...
[Desire General] shaky156:
Great to see you here, i heard the news about this, afaik ics for qsd8k couldve been fixed last year LOL, if this is the good stuff, pusing adreno binary files should error the sys
[Desire General] faro+:
I hope they can be helpfull for ics,but can be used also for solve the preview issue in sense 3.5??...for now to solve this must be used list view,i know it's a little little little thing,but i'm just curious :D
[Desire General] ali8383:
Finally :) i hope we see cm9 soon on our devices .

I think this is the best news on this year for htc desire users :)
[Desire General] thantos2024:
I am also wondering about this so am planning of having a play over the week end, see if I can come up with anything, but am not any kind of dev, so suspect one of the talented devs out there would do a far better job than me if it is at all possible. However I will be honest and admit that I believe the real problem with the panel view is down to the coding of the mode10 files, so until a tools is realesed that can edit the sense 3.5+ mode10 we may be stuck with things as is.
[Desire General] roalex:
Looks like is just a matter of pulling the right code from codeaurora for AOSP builds, which has been done to some extent already.
[Desire General] phazepiracy:
Ohh good news, seems to be what's needed on ics issues.

hope it'll be helpfull
[Desire General] Sandvold:
According to drewis who sorted HW

I still think they might give us some more help, but not extremly much

Havn't had a look yet myself and not sure if I got time until Sunday night so can't be sure

Hello all,

I was thinking about selling my HTC Desire for not supporting ICS, but this news has already decided to give up the sale. :)

I love this smartphone and fortunately I can use it for longer updated! :)

I can not wait for ICS's stable!!

Thanks to all the DEV's developing ROMs for HTC Desire

[Desire General] Droidzone:
Seconded. People misunderstand the term development. When you create a thread here, ask yourself the qn: Am I releasing something I developed?

If not, post it in General.

Leaked RUUs are traditionally an exception.

Reported.
[Desire General] Pitbull_Raven:
I can agree with Droidzone when he says the thread should be moved. As for locking and deleting, I find that extreme. These are forums, the main focus of which is to exchange information and such. To just delete something because you don't agree with it... I do not believe that is in the best interest or the spirit of these forums. Move it if that makes you happy or if that'll better suite the rules and guidelines (probably would). As for the rest, if the thread is really as useless as people say (and I am not going to say it is or isn't) it'll eventually die down and disappear as has happened with so many threads before and will happen with so many threads hereafter.
[Desire General] luke05dee:

[Desire General] palito1980:
Are the drivers already implemented on any ICS Desire ROM?
[Desire General] stankyou:
Check the rom's changelog. If it's in the change log then it's implemented. If it's not there then it is not implemented. I'm pretty sure devs wouldn't leave out something like this in their changelog.
[Desire General] Reltik:
Hi

Hi, this is my first post on this amazing community, and enjoy many wonderful roms thanks to many developers... specially from Mildwild!

I read on android.es that HTC decides to make an upgrade for HTC Desire HD and Desire S and many others to ICS... And I see that many specs of this terminals are very similar to Bravo... Do you think that we can benefit from this situacion to take it and modify some severals settings and make it work on Bravo??

Greetings, Reltik.
[Desire General] k3lcior:
I dont want to disrespect anyone but Mildwild is not a developer, he used Cyanogenmod (maintained by Kali) also Oxygen (which is made by AdamG and Thalamus) and just themed/tweaked it..

Just my 2 cents..
[Desire General] Joenye:
I don't understand how this could be of any significance, they've already got full camera previews on the latest ICS Beta, so it seems to me that there is merely a lot of bug tweaking and ironing out to be done before this ROM can be considered stable; though I may be mistaken.
[Desire General] cdambati:
surely it will help get the video recording/encoding up to scratch? In any case, props to Q'com and the developers for making the impossible happen (ICS on a 2 year old device!).

8-bit Android Arcade Bootanimation

I've created an 8-bit, old-school arcade inspired animation which attempts to bring back some nostalgia :) It's offered in two versions, one with scanlines, and one without.

Preview:

Note that there are also different sizes/resolutions to choose from as well. Here's a quick list so you know which one to get (pick the one closest to your native screen resolution):

mdpi = 270 x 480

hdpi = 450 x 800

xhdpi = 720 x 1280

xxhdpi = 1080 x 1920

xxxhdpi = 1440 x 2560

Downloads @ scar45.com

*NOTE* - The .zip files that you download are not to be used directly! Simply extract the 'bootanimation.zip' from the download, and place it in your appropriate folder (often /data/local; /system/media; or ask your ROM dev if you do not know).

I hope you enjoy it!
[Android Themes] tinyaznboi:
dude this is awesome! great work!
[Android Themes] ssojyeti2:
Great bootanimation, but could we get a QHD (540x960) version as well?

Are you talking about the part0/part1 folders or desc.txt?

---------- Post added at 09:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:16 AM ----------

This probably won't work, just like the xhdpi didn't work...worth a shot..

http://d-h.st/JOU
[Android Themes] SupaKid:
Yeah, the .png files inside part0/part1, are what he means.

I was thinking all that needs to be done, is to remove the dimensions from the end of the filenames.

For example:

GoogleArcade001_960x540.png ---------> GoogleArcade001.png.

It might work after that.

Those of you flashing the MDPI and qHD ports, remember to change the name of the .zip file to bootanimation.

Just a reminder!

Thank you in advance.
[Android Themes] scar45:
Hey all!

After a long hiatus, I have finally put forth (a lot) of effort to redesign my 8-bit Android Arcade bootanimation to be more..."future-proof". This latest animation doesn't have any dates, and has been designed in mind to allow you to use it for the lifetime of Android. I.E., there are no version descriptions such as "Jelly Bean", "KitKat", etc., nor are there any years in the copyright.

I've also created pixel-perfect versions for many different resolutions, so hopefully more people can take advantage of it. Oh yea, there's also a version with scanlines and one without (see the new preview images in the OP).

Hoping you can share it out, and also let me know what you think!

Thanks!

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] plaguethenet:
Its well known that the D720 has a crappy radio. I'd like help researching radio images with the intent of developing replacement radio/baseband software. I'll keep this post updated with discoverys, insights and information about the radio.

Radio Description

The Radio firmware is actually a set of operating systems that runs on the phones physical processor. This includes a "Microvisor" (Think, Xen Dom0) and a set of Operating systems that run on it (Think Xen DomU). The microvisor for the D720 is NICTOKL4, The full version string is:

NICTOKL4 - (provider: Open Kernel Labs) built on May 19 2009 00:21:02 using gcc version 3.4.4.

The radio is loaded by NICTOKL4 as is androids boot code. The exact process is unknown, but I speculate that fastboot and the radio are started at the same time, and fastboot executes what needs to be run on the android side, while the radio waits to be initialized externally.

The radio can preempt Android, and has real time priority. The radio itself is a small part of radio.img

Theories

I've read in several places that Deep Idle really doesn't work, And I'd like to speculate as to why in the hopes it will help someone else.

Since the Radio requires real time priority, and halting a CPU and bringing it back up is an expensive process, it cannot be allowed. I speculate that the lack of savings from Deep Idle is because the radio keeps running while android (because of the microvisor) thinks the CPU is halted.

This apparently does not apply to GSM models.

Other Information

The radio appears to be unencrypted, which is strange considering its almost always encrypted.

Android is a Guest OS in a virtualized phone.

So is the radio.

The radio and baseband that most people think of, Is mostly software. Its no different than any other embedded device. Just because it does things with the hardware, doesn't mean that its implemented in hardware.

Recent Discoveries

GSM Models have a separate baseband processor that is responsible for handling AT Commands, phone calls, SIM interaction, etc.

What is the "baseband" software image responsible for on GSM Models? Why is it run as an OS, instead of being implemented in the RIL libs?

Thanks

Harbb - For the delightful discussion regarding the inner workings for the radio, You say you know less than you do, and your challenging my theories and pointing out errors helps me further not only this cause, but my own knowledge as well. I appreciate it.

Also, Killasmoke:

It will be a rather tedious process, as this is like, trying to reverse engineer the NT Kernel. I'm not saying its impossible, but its highly complex, and nearly completely undocumented (Or in our case, COMPLETELY undocumented) I hope I can do something too, but I'll need more insight from other hardware hackers as well. There is alot to be reverse engineered here.

I was just thinking today about how my TMobile galaxy s handled data much more efficiently than sprint. I could talk while surfing the web over 3g and never any buffering or loading on Pandora (now it's between every song).

You without me is like Harold Melvin without the Blue Notes...
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] mondokat:
So, that message means it was compiled with gcc, is the radio itself open source? Are there other sample radios to base work off of? If it's unencrypted, can it be decompiled relatively easily?

At any rate, saying it can be built with gcc at least means it has the potential to be built by anyone with the proper environment and source. :cool:

Any updates yet?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] plaguethenet:
Different radio and technology. GSM Inherently supports simultaneous voice and data, CDMA does not. Thats merely a difference in the radio software and hardware.

A good way to think of the two is HTTP vs FTP.

Both work over TCP/IP, and both do similar (albeit different) things. (Serve files)

How they go about serving those files, and how the client gets those files is different. That's more or less the difference between CDMA and GSM (UMTS Really). They use different radio bands and a different protocol to accomplish the same thing. Just like how HTTP and FTP use different ports and different protocols to do the same thing.

Also, HSDPA and HSDPA+ Are much faster than 1xRTT and EvDo
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] plaguethenet:
Before disassembly, i'd have to split the binaries apart. (Extract OEMSBL, SBL, PBL and AMSS.BIN from Radio.img) then I could disassemble them. I wonder if ODIN Images are any different. It may be worth looking at and i'll see what I can dig up.

In hindsight, Some of the bootloaders may be in bootloader.img. I'm pretty sure bootloader.img is just fastboot and Samsung's boot software, Worth looking into.

It is and is not open source. K4 is a Microkernel (Very similar to, if not based on, MACH). It can be built with GCC. The radio itself is seperate from NICTOKL4, NICTOKL4 is just a hypervisor. The radio runs underneath that, and so does android. In short, think of it this way. The radio software, and Android are just programs running on an operating system. NICTOKL4 is that operating system.

I just found an old BT dongle for my pc and managed to get it paired with the phone. I have sent files from pc to phone (using right click, send via bluetooth) but can't figure out how to send them from the phone to the pc. ES file explorer has some options but I'm not sure what I need to do to set it up. Can anyone give me a quick rundown on using it?
[HTC Desire S] Saipro:
Nothing really. Hold down on the file in question for a few moments & a menu pops up. Choose the "share" option & all should be well from that point on as a "Bluetooth" option ought to appear.

I kinda prefer Root Explorer though
[HTC Desire S] 4myphone:
I don't have that option in ES, is it in root explorer?
[HTC Desire S] Tectas:
It's at es also present, it's just named send instead of share.

Swyped from my Desire S far away from my PC (maybe)
[HTC Desire S] Saipro:
Actually discovered it exists as both "send" and "share". Merely depends on which version you're using (tried an earlier version & discovered it really had "send").
