[General Questions and Answers] mmegalodon:
Remains to be seen, but there is speculation that Samsung might try for a closer release, at least in terms of it following the EU release. Only speculation and, unless something happened today, there isn't really any info on the matter. Would be nice to see them closer in terms of regional releases, as well as seeing the various carriers get them at reasonable time between them.

More information is sure to follow after the official announcement. :)

Samsung sucks!

Im upset the Galaxy S3 wont get the Exynos quad core chip!! I really think this will be a huge blunder for Samsung like how they released the S2 in North America 6 months after its initial release. This sucks! I used to be a fan of Samsung and if T-mobile gets the htc one x I will get that instead! :mad:
[Nokia Lumia 900] 22-40:
I've noticed that the compass works best only when the 900 is held in a vertical orientation, either portrait or landscape. When held flat, it can sense movement but doesn't lock the actual direction much at all.

Vertically it's pretty good, which is great for navigation. But it's counterintuitive that it's so vague when held like a map. Anyone else have the same experience?
[Nokia Lumia 900] 22-40:
Ok, this is even stranger. Today when using the compass outdoors, it reads accurately in vertical portrait orientation, AND when held flat (which it did not previously). However, when held in vertical landscape, it's 90 degrees off - reads west when pointing north.

I'm beginning to suspect a defective unit.
[Nokia Lumia 900] foxbat121:
If you use any case that has a magnetic case lock or your phone is near any mangets, you will always have to perform a calibration before using the compass. I have never seen any phone's compass go bad. Nor has I ever seen any phone's compass accurate or even useful without doing a calibration first.

Calibration involves waving your phone in a figure 8 pattern repeatedly.
[Nokia Lumia 900] 22-40:
I've done that, and did it outside with nothing around. Maybe I should try holding the phone in various orientations and repeating the process. Will do that later.
[Nokia Lumia 900] foxbat121:
Your phone's orientation has to trace the 8 figure. Basically, it is rotating around but flip in the middle.
[Nokia Lumia 900] 22-40:
Yes, I know. I repeated the process and things are a bit better, still flaky though. I'll try it in some new locations over the next couple of days.
[Nokia Lumia 900] 22-40:
Just to close on this - after a couple of days usage, and maybe also using Nokia Drive (awesome app), the compass has settled down to work pretty much perfectly. I did some manual figure-8-wave calibrations with some success, but time and motion seem to have been the real fix.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Entropy512:
Here we go - What I believe is the first custom kernel built from source for GT-N7000 ICS.

READ THIS POST INCLUDING KNOWN ISSUES BEFORE POSTING!

Driving Always For User Quality - DAFUQ!!!!

This is built by applying some small fixes to the GT-I9100 update4 source base so that the stylus and charger drivers build properly.

Source code is at: https://github.com/Entropy512/kernel_galaxys2_ics/commits/entropy_kernel_main

Initramfs git is at: https://github.com/Entropy512/initramfs_galaxynote_ics/commits/master

It has been tested so far with Criskelo's XXLPY-based release, but should work with most other Touchwiz-based N7000 ICS releases. AOSP firmwares are not supported by this kernel. They may boot and sort-of run, but no bug reports will be accepted if you're running an AOSP-based firmware. No bootloader flashing is required.

Features:

See my I777 ICS kernel thread for now - it's built off of the same source base (but N7000 users should post here)

The one specific feature I should advertise here - This is built from I9100 Update4 sources. This appears to be the only source base so far for Samsung Exynos4 kernels that doesn't carry a high risk of permanent damage to your eMMC chip. (e.g. it should be safe from all of the nightmares people have encountered with ICS leaks here, however I cannot make any guarantees.)

Known issues:

Some of you are used to kernels that autoroot a ROM for you - this one will not and never will especially now that two different Superuser packages exist. Flash SuperSU or Superuser in CWM, pick your poison.

Camera preview is black

Hardware accelerated video display is not working

Because of these known issues, the primary use for this kernel is to reset the flash counter with TriangleAway (which DOES work on this kernel)

Change Log

5/27/2012:

Pulled in some changes from the N7000 source release. Wifi and speakerphone are now working with XXLPY, however - hwaccel video is still broken.

Fixing hwaccel video requires major work or just trashing everything and starting from the N7000 source release and readding features there.

5/2/2012:

Charging now works normally. It turns out some devices have an SMB136 charger, others have an SMB328 - Now both are enabled.

4/26/2012:

Call audio fixed (Note only)

Bumped first GPU step default up to 100 MHz from 66 (Note only)

Increased conservative governor freq step from 5% to 10%

4/24/2012:

Initial release

FAQ

Q: What's up with the name?

A: Since I run CM9, this can no longer be considered my "daily driver" - so the Daily Driver name no longer really applies. I haven't picked a good name yet, expect this to change with my mood. Names may get more sensible as the mental damage caused by watching the ZOMBIE ASS trailer heals.

im on lp6. it takes like 2-3 seconds for my screen to turn on when pressing the power button and noticeable lag when opening app drawer in nova. definitley didnt do those things before

lag is the wrong word. there is a stutter during transitions.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Entropy512:
See the I777 thread and the git commits for what's in there.

It is in general battery-optimized - Mali 3-step defaults are battery-oriented, default governor is a tuned conservative, reduce the polling interval of it for better results.

As this is built off of I9100 sources, there might be some Note-specific things missing. I never did Gingerbread kernel development on the Note. One thing is - this should not burn out your eMMC like many of the leaks can.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] mikeyinid:
its usable for sure, was definitely not saying it wasnt. cant wait to see where this goes from here. i know an ics kernel from source is probably the only thing stopping official cm build.

disregard the stutter post lol. went intio setcpu and changed to ondemand and this thing is butter smooth. and undervolts :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Entropy512:
I'm working with codeworkx and xplodwild on getting that going. I need to clean up extract-files.sh and the vendor/prop repo, among a few other things. I won't have time to work it the next few days though.

If you want to improve performance, try bumping up the GPU frequency for the lowest step and reduce its staycount to 0. For battery-saving purposes, the first GPU step is a bit on the low side. I might bump it up a little, there's a BIG jump between 66 and 100 MHz.

Instead of being 166/266 MHz, it's 66/166/266 MHz. Should improve screen-on battery life.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] mikeyinid:
ok, so for ~5 seconds after you unlock the phone there is a noticeable stutter during transitions, even using ondemand.

scrolling is very smooth tho, even in plume...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Entropy512:
Try increasing the frequency for the lowest GPU step, or reduce its staycount to 0.

Another option, try conservative but change freq_step to 15. I'm probably going to change that as the default.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] neobuddy89:
Where can I find a nightly build to get initial extract-files ?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] mikeyinid:
seems the same using conservative with freq_step at 15. the first time you open the app drawer it stutters but the 2nd and 3rd times it get smoother til it doesnt stutter any more. turn the screen off and back on and its the same again.

---------- Post added at 09:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:59 PM ----------

flashed to stunner and the stutter is even more noticable.

I've been using Google Voice Search since day on my original Droid with slide out keyboard, but today it's no longer voice-to-text'ing my punctuations. It's actually spelling out each punctuation into words, and this extremely annoying considering how dependent I have become with Google Voice Search's Voice Actions.

I sell phones and demonstrate, always driving around to different locations, always have hands tied... Please help me figure out why it's all of a sudden not punctuating..!

I'm rooted on stock. Voice Search has been cleared, force stopped, installed updates, reinstalled updates.

Swype's keyboard microphone does punctuations and smiley faces perfect.

Any help in this matter is greatly appreciated.

I'm extremely glad it's not just me! It happened to me just a couple of days ago, too. I was out of town on business, so I couldn't trouble shoot on other Androids. I'm at my girl's house now. I picked up her Droid Incredible 2 while posting this, and I held down the search button:

Send Text to NAME smiley face

It spelled out smiley face instead of making one. This appears to be Google. I'll be checking on other Android devices tomorrow. I'm very glad it's not my Razr.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] mdecker2626:
Same Problem Here

It is definitely google, sorry if I'm posting in the wrong forum but I'm on rooted HTC Evo 4g and just noticed the other day, when I use voice search it will spell out my punctuation. Example "Hello comma are you going to the party tonight question mark" rather than "Hello, are you going to the party tonight?" as it did before.

Ironically enough, it only does this when I actually use the voice search comment and say "Send text to" etc.

If I already open up a text and press the little microphone it will still dictate punctuation.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] the_mig:
Same Issue - but speech to punctuation works in other apps

Same problem here. It just started happening to me a couple days ago and extremely annoying. I can't believe how dependent I am on voice search - I use it all the time. I tried deleting and reinstalling voice search, as well as changing the settings for google services voice recognition, but neither had any affect.

What's really strange is that the voice to punctuation works in other apps like texting or email apps, which also use voice search for the speech to text conversion. It just doesn't work from the "voice search" application.

Strange....

[Motorola Droid RAZR] [x]:
Bump.

I might start a new thread, but I'm starting here first to see if anyone is monitoring this thread.

The Google Now Voice to Text feature for "Send Text" is working again, but it now has a new issue. Punctuation and Smiley Faces are not recognized at the end of the last sentence of Google Now/Voice Search's "Text" Voice Command.

For example:

" text Bonnie i miss you exclamation point smile face "

Normally yields a text to Bonnie:

" I miss you! :) "

However, it now does this text:

" i miss you "

It actually continues to type the correct punctuation and smileys while dictating in the Search bar, but it does not carry them over to the text message. Anything at the end of a sentence is now completely lost. Vanishes. And annoying.

Prior to recently, it would not carry over punctuation at the end of sentences; but it would work fine if I added a smiley face to the end of my texts. So.. For a while, a vast majority of my texts to people ended with a smiley face. LoL. Just to get the question mark or exclamation point to show up correctly at the end of my texts. However, my smiley face band aid does not work anymore.

Anyone having similar issues?
