The OP just says:

"Toggle Signature Verification in Recovery"

but i found the answer reading through the comments (not many have time to do that)

anyways, i tried installing it with TSV enabled and disabled..either way you'll find out if it installed or not. thanks!
[HTC Sensation] joaquinf:
Fully working here with 213 ... Better than ever, loading time has decreased and the game is silky smooth

Indeed, already fixed the link. Thanks

Just re-read and i must've dream about it. Maybe i read it from the comments too or i supposed it because the drivers are unsigned thus signature verification must be disabled.

Thanks for the correction and i agree with you, this is worth mentioning in the op

watch out !

the libs from the first post have graphical glitches sometimes (black lines and stuff)

ordroid libs are fast too... but dont have glitches !

so .. i would prefere ordroid !

[HTC Sensation] fredcorp6:
Got a question about RAM....

Why is it that on most sense roms the ram will never get bellow about 130mb? I've noticed that when you have the browser open, and open up a few more apps, most of the time the browser will close before you go back to it.

Why not put the apps you have just opened into the 130mb free ram, instead of the browser closing so that ram can be used?? It seems that the 130mb free is just being wasted, and never actually getting used.

There must be a reason for this... also is there a way to change this, so this free ram actually gets used?
[HTC Sensation] sromer:
Sense is using the RAM.
[HTC Sensation] fredcorp6:
Why's it shown as free ram then?
[HTC Sensation] Mr-YC:
its weird, my RAM did go all the way down to 80+mb

are you sure 130mb is the minimum?
[HTC Sensation] fredcorp6:
oh really, what roms that on?

still, surely it should be going all the way down to 0mb?
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
OOM values (Out Of Memory) which are set in services.jar file make sure that the free RAM count does not go below 130mb so that the kernel does not panic on an out of memory situation, so whenever RAM is getting low, it closes apps that require a large amount of memory

To be honest its not a very efficient setup, it would be better just to put the value in kernel panic on out of memory = 0 (false) therefore solving the problem :)
[HTC Sensation] fredcorp6:
Hi Jonny thanks for the reply.

Ok, so how can I change these values? I have system tuner pro which has a memory section - can it be done through that?
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Yes, set it to light or custom and choose your own settings for it :)
[HTC Sensation] fredcorp6:
yea in system tuner pro u can change it... got it down to 40mb free but the phone got really slow and laggy - guess thats why the default is 130mb!
[HTC Sensation] amm009uk:
May be the Supercharger scripts are the answer
[HTC Sensation] shahkam:
On sense 4.0 coindroid i always have 180-200 mb of ram free... Just close your apps when you dont need them via long pressing home button and swype to kill...
[HTC Sensation] fredcorp6:
I'm well aware of how to close apps... You seem to have missed the point of this thread lol
[HTC Sensation] shahkam:
I did not miss it its only you i guess because im always having alot of free ram...
[HTC Sensation] fredcorp6:
No the problem is not a lack of free ram! Was just wanting to know why it never all got used up and there was always at least 130mb free... U need to read the thread
[HTC Sensation] shahkam:
I have read the thread but looks like i missread anyways reflash the rom can't hurt at all...

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ruben_limit:
Hi folks, I have a very serious problem.

The camera gives FC always put any rom, any kernel, any wipe to do.

I have CM9. Everything worked fine, even the camera.

But a couple of days gave me the camera FC (and any camera application).

I wipe, and continued to give FC. I put the last nightly with wipes, and FC. I put the siyah. And did not work. I thought it maybe it was something rare CM9. So I went back to put the officer with wipes. Wrong. I put the siyah to see if the kernel improves somewhat, and there is no way.

Someone has thought the same thing? or know how to fix it?

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:

1) delete you DCIM folder after backing up to PC, and try...or if you have no PC access now, just rename the folder to DCIM-2 and reboot

2) USE an alternative Camera from Market "Camera ICS" the best I have ever seen, better quality than stock ICS camera...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ruben_limit:
Thank you. but any application that uses the camera returns FC.

I've deleted the DCIM folder and not a result.

Thanks anyway.

if somebody provides in CWM flashable ZIP format you have to flash it from CWM, if it is apk you have to install it...

but you have already flashed many ROMs with different camera apps, with no result???

have you tried what I suggested "Camera ICS" download it from play store.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ruben_limit:
Yes, I flash many roms, making wipes, CM9, ginger stock, stock ICS ... and does not fix the problem.

I've tried many camera apps (even with "Camera ICS" you name it), and this does not work.

[Acer Iconia A500] waydownsouth:
I have been looking into slow "cold-start" gps locks & in some peoples cases, complete lack of gps.

In testing, everything I've found so far, seems to be pointing at the lack of Broadcom's proprietary long term orbit data (lto.dat) used by the GPS Daemon on our devices...

These chips are in the a500/a200/a100 devices (101 & 501 devices use an ericsson GPS)

For the sake of not regurgitating a whole heap of info, you can read more about the lto.dat file in plenty of places across the web.

pacificwing recently bought this up in crypted's aGPS patch thread, some discussion on the subject starts around page 30.

The attached, recovery flashable zip will patch your system with a *workaround* to automate the download & update of lto.dat...

It is derived from past work in CyanogenMod for the aries (& other) devices.

It should be compatible with most ROM's, but may need adjusting if your busybox wget applet can't resolve dns. (see notes in the script)

What it does:

Installs the script "get-gps-lto" to /system/bin

Creates a service entry in the init.<boardname>.rc file which runs the script on a semi regular basis. (triggered by network connectivity)

The script is tunable by a number of variables, modify as you see fit.

Or, flash & forget... messages are sent to logcat so you can check up on it easily.

This zip has only been tested on a500, cm9, ics bootloader & cwm recovery.

Mileage may vary on other combinations, the zip patches your boot.img so please make a nandroid backup to be safe. (only need to restore /boot if there's a problem)

Installation problem? please let me know & provide a recovery.log so I can make adjustments to the zip if need be.

Standard disclaimers apply, flash at your own risk.
[Acer Iconia A500] civato:
Oh nice I can build in my rom and the kernel before I release it.
[Acer Iconia A500] strongergravity:
Thanks in advance! I'll flash it in a bit!
[Acer Iconia A500] waydownsouth:
Not a problem, you'll be sure to test it before releasing the rom I hope?
[Acer Iconia A500] dathero10:
Anyone has this working yet? Btw, thank you waydownsouth :D
[Acer Iconia A500] civato:
No :D
[Acer Iconia A500] BakaNeko59:
So that explains why I could never get my wget script to work....
[Acer Iconia A500] azoller1:
would it be possible to port this to another device? nice job by the way:)
[Acer Iconia A500] BakaNeko59:
Other than hard coding the IP address (which worked for me by the way) is there a better solution to fixing the busybox DNS problem? I've read that putting a resolve.conf file in /system/etc that contains the Google DNS nameservers should work but I tried it and no luck.

Also, any reason you're not using the 30 day file rather than the 7 day? With the 30 day you wouldn't have to run the script all that often... Is the 30 day less accurate or something?

In any event, thanks.
[Acer Iconia A500] civato:
I build in my kernel for RF1
[Acer Iconia A500] waydownsouth:
:p

possible, yes... the installer zip will only work for the picasso, picasso_e & vangogh devices... I could add more devices to the installer if need be?

Only thing I could see being a problem is the where the service entries get written to in the init.<boardname>.rc

The device would need to use a boot.img for it's ramdisk too... Most Samsungs are very different in that regard

Most statically compiled generic busyboxes will be like that on android, in the case of CyanogenMod, the busybox has been compiled against the android bionic lib & has a number of modifications for Android compatibility.

I stuck to the 7day data so it will stay a bit fresher... I figured that 60kb isn't much to download every few days.

It's easy enough to change those parameters in the script to point to the 30day

Also, haven't yet had time to test how effective the 30day data is after 20 + days... since I only made this yesterday.

What has been your experience?
[Acer Iconia A500] azoller1:
it actually is a samsung, the galaxy player 5.0 so you dont have to do it you could pm me a short tut.

[Acer Iconia A500] spoupard:
This works great! Thanks!
[Acer Iconia A500] BakaNeko59:
Well,since I've never gotten my sManager script method to work I've just been manually downloading the 30 day one every every now and then. I haven't actually been using my GPS much so I can't say how good it's been.

Is there a busybox installer on the market that you think would be better than the generic one? Or is it possible the CM one would work with Flexreaper?
[Acer Iconia A500] civato:
I build IT in flexreaper RF1 and the kernel of RF1. Release maybe tomorrow.
[Acer Iconia A500] waydownsouth:
I think all the busybox installers have generic, compiled for arm versions, they will likely have the same problem.

The cm/bionic one is dynamically linked, so depends on some libs in the rom. You could compile a static version against the android source (or ndk), but probably won't work on different versions of android.

Other option, there are real wget binaries compiled for android floating about which aren't neutered like the busybox version... they have no problems resolving dns.

delete the busybox wget symlink & drop in the binary...
[Acer Iconia A500] BakaNeko59:
Well, in my 53 years of existence I've grown lazy. I think I'll just use your solution and stop worrying about my own ;) since yours works like a charm.
[Acer Iconia A500] drharisis:
I think that gpsfix needs some more fixing comparing with manually downloading lto.dat and copying it at system/gpsconfig file..lr data/gps file..........
[Acer Iconia A500] djh816:
mine wouldn't find location at all before on cm9 but with this, after initial long lock, other locks only took ~5 secs. thanks!
[Acer Iconia A500] waydownsouth:
This downloads the lto.dat file to the default location /data/gps/

If your gpsconfig.xml file has been modified to point to /system rather than /data, then it won't work.

You could modify the script to point to /system, but, you would also need to include code to mount /system rw before attempting to update.

I think that's what your post was about?
[Acer Iconia A500] drharisis:
perhaps this is the solution...Using this script I observed that lto.dat file at etc/gps was expired...When I overwtite it manually with ltp.dat downloaded I get a very quick fix...

This Adreno GPU update is ONLY designed to work on Qualcomm S3 ARM7 Devices running ICS.

Greetings, I have been on XDA for a long time and I hope that you all can benefit from this patch as we have over at the Amaze Forums. Here is a link to my Original Thread and evidence of this patch's success for our Qualcomm S3 Adreno 220 GPU devices running ICS.

We have proven that this driver Patch has doubled our GPU throughput for 2D and 3D rendering.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1631223

I have only tested this on my T-Mobile HTC Amaze (Qualcomm S3 Adreno 220 GPU) and have not experienced any issues.

I have created this Recovery Flashable Patch to Install the Qualcomm Updated Adreno Drivers on the "Official Ruby ICS" release.

Qualcomm Developers Website

I did not get a screenshot of the results before flashing this, however I have seen dramatically improved result on my Quadrant 3D scores with

"Force 2D GPU rendering" UNCHECKED

in the Setting->Develop Options Menu of this ICS Release. With this option checked I have seen improvements on both 2D and 3D. Although results are slightly degraded for 3D from post update the 2D results have doubled in value.

Quadrant results were obtained immediately after restart to avoid any other processes interfering with the results.

I didn't have much luck with this on CleanROM ICS Edition.

Pre-patch, GPU rendering on, everything else default (no kernel change or overclocking), I got 2936 overall, 1006 2D and 1980 3D.

After the patch the overall dropped to 2336 and 2D to 1000, 3D went up a bit to 2098. I tried again with GPU rendering disabled just for the heck of it, and it went down to 2273 overall, 368 2D, 1967 3D.

For now I'm flashing back to the driver that's included in the ROM, but maybe this will work better with a different kernel.
