[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mike.r.olson:
My experience: I used Rom Toolbox Pro to edit the media_profiles.xml file. I changed the max bitrates on 1080p and 720p from "12000000" to "40000000", the min bitrates to "12000000", bumped the framerate to min30/max60 (just wishing) and the max audio bitrates from "96000" to "160000". Saved the XML, rebooted the phone. Recorded two 1 minute videos (one at 720p, the other at 1080p). Moved the files to my desktop and used GSpot to get the video information and the video bitrate was around 9700kbits/s and the audio bitrate was 96000 and the framerate was 23fps. Therefore, I believe that manually editing the XML does not actually change anything or the framerate changes I made negated the bitrate changes. I may try lowering the max to 20MBits tomorrow for more testing. I'm running freEVO 1.1.

So this definitely doesn't work then?

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mike.r.olson:
I wouldn't necessarily say that. Just give the community awhile to either make it work or "trial-and-error" it to work. Patience is a virtue!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mike.r.olson:
I will say that increasing the bitrates and framerates decreased the "wobble" or screen tearing that the stock settings have. At least it's a move in the right direction.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] .Gibson.:
I was referring to specifically editing the XML at /system/etc. I was just about to do it but the guy before me said a no go. Just looking for a confirmation.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mike.r.olson:
Yeah, that guy was me. I don't know enough about what I did to say what I did should have worked. I'm going to restore the original xml file and play with some of the values in the next few days. In the meantime, why don't you try as well?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Fifth313ment:
I agree 100%! The EVO LTE blew away the GS3 by far! Not only was the video better but the audio was less tinny and more HD. I thought the image stabilizer on the GS3 was better but I would prefer a better picture and sound to stabilization any day as seeing as you can control the camera. Nice find BTW! Just look how the EVO LTE preforms in low light compared to the GS3! You couldn't even make out a person in low light on the GS3! This has me really excited to see what is possible with mods! I just don't understand why HTC doesn't give us the option to change the bitrate lower for a smaller file and higher for better quality and a higher file?

I tried editing the xml and it didn't seem to make much of a difference. Has anyone opened that zip from the thread and seen what it does?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mike.r.olson:
If you look at his changelog, he started with XML edits, then did "more". That part goes over my head. I pm'd Freeza about it, however I think the messages on my Tapatalk app are borked, so I'm not sure if it actually sent and if it did, I don't want to be a nuisance.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] antiparadigm:
I tried to edit the xml, again, and it made my phone get stuck in bootloops... maybe i did it wrong... Here is an excerpt from the Extracted XML from the Zip file.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Hunt3r.j2:
20 Mbps is enough to surpass the SGS3's video quality.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] theoner1:
20 in low light would indeed be sweet. Right now I get less than 6 with stock app and around 10 with camera ics+ in low light.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] TaintedByte:
This would rock. It really would put my 64gb card to good use xD

EDIT: Probably posted before but the One X has a 20megabit mod:

If our phones are indeed identical camera wise and have the same software, it would mean that by default it records at 10mbps and also shows that it is possible to do this to our devices although at the moment the mod on the One X is bugging out.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] General 747:
So basicly, I dropped my galaxy s 9000 in a drainwater hole next to my house and had to get it out with my shovel. I did so and obviously because it was raining, it got water damaged and also has dirt inside of it.

Since it was in there for around and hour with the battery still in while I tried to get it, Its pretty hopeless to try to fix it or send it to repair, particularly because I'm upgrading to SGS3 in a month or two.

I want to sell it on ebay for spare parts use but I want to first whipe all data off the phone, because it includes many documents like my paypal account history and emails on gmail. The problem is, if I try turning it on, the usual white text "Galaxy S GT-I9000" text shows up and in several seconds turns off. Even if I try booting into recovery mode, I just dont have enough time to hit erase all data.

So is there any way to whipe all the data off of it other than microwaving/purging it?

Thanks

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] General 747:
I opened it and its completely corroded already and it would cost far greater than the phones currently worth to fix.

Anyway, as I asked, is there any way to erase all data off of it if it doesn't turn on for more than 5 seconds?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andres_a:
Identify and desolder Flash IC (or IC-s if there are multiple).

No problem if these are TSSOP-s (they usually are) - this can be done with soldering station and soldering braid.

If these are BGA-s then use heat gun and something to pick up the (very hot) IC.

Update: just thought that if you don't have time/tools to make it then there are 2 options:

1) just disassemble the phone, purge motherboard, sell what is left.

2) Find some mobile phone / computer / electronics repair shop where they can remove and destroy these Flash IC-s with you seeing it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] General 747:
Before I do that though, is there actually any way I can possibly delete all data without destroying the hardware (If it isn't yet destroyed by the waterdamage ofcourse)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andres_a:
I know no way to destroy data in Flash memory without damaging other phone components or without disassembling if device itself is not operational.

Suggestion at the moment is:

* Wait for more feedback from forum members. Clearly there's a lot more experienced members than i here :)

* Meanwhile try to get phone as dry as possible - it may happen that it boots for longer time e.g. tomorrow
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alex Charles:
Indeed. Stick it in a bag of rice until you get a better idea
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] General 747:
I will try doing this. I took the phone to my friend who used to repair mobile phones, and he kindly wiped the components with WD-40 on a toothbrush for free. He says that theres hardly any chance it'll work but it may eventually allow me to boot up for longer than 10 seconds which will be enough time to flash the memory.

It's my understanding if you are willing to pay you can return it. I know if you were on Verizon you could return the phone within the first month and then "repurchase" the exact same device.

On a side note, there has to be something horribly wrong with Gorilla Glass 2. I foresee a recall coming...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasweb:
Do you have any evidence of that? From the video's and articles I read about the s3 and gorilla glass (2) there is nothing wrong with it. The new design of the S3 (thin bezzle) makes is more "fragile" but also smaller, lighter and more usable in one hand.

So rather get a bumper / case (like many iPhone users have been forced to do)...

Cracked screen issue

I purchased S3 for myself and have had it for 2 weeks with no issues. My wife saw the phone and said she wanted one as well. So, I ordered it. We received it, charged it, and then activated the phone. She put it back on the charger before she went to bed. Got up in the morning put it in her padded phone pouch in her purse and ran to the store. She went to call me from the store and noticed a crack in the screen from the earpiece to volume button on the phone. She said she did not drop or bang it on anything. Needless to say she returned the phone no questions asked by AT&T and bought the iPhone 4S instead because she did not want to have to worry about the screen breaking for no apparent reason. The one thing I did notice on her S3 was where the screen meets the case. There seemed to be a glass grit or dust in the crack around 2/3 rds of the perimeter screen. My S3 did not have that.

Hey all!

I found a sollution to get stock Browser working properly, of course for 1.56.401.2 primo ports. ;)

0. Be sure Force GPU Rendering is OFF on developement settings.

0,5. CHECK a webpage to be able to compare!

1. Download

2. Flash in cwm

3. Start Browser. IT WILL DROP FC first time, or maybe second time, but int the future it will be smooth like butter.

4. Use it and you will feel the difference. (And please share experiences here)

(sollution for: when page loading, scrolling is nice smooth, but when page loaded it goes slow, and buggy. Now it should be smooth after page loaded too.)

CHANGELOG:

FINAL:

-Fixed landscape mode lag fully

-Added "survival" script(for factory reset and so on)

-Forced DEBUG MODE

-Forced openGl rendering and normal rendering ACROSS debug mode.

-Added capability to change settings in settings/debug menu

V2:

-Fixed lag in landscape mode

-Forced openGl rendering and Normal rendering by code&script

V1:

-Forced openGl rendering and Normal rendering by code

DOWNLOAD: sorry, Wrong file uploaded!

Github FINAL

(updated landscape view fix, acrossed debug menu advanced)

METHOD 2:

what i wanted to force ON is available when you type about:debug, press go and after that in setting there is a menu "debug", go in and there is force opengl rendering check on and normal rendering check on too.

it gives more fps if you disable use wide viewport.

Enjoy! If you like or helped it, please press Thanks!

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] krypton_the_slayer:
Hi Devs.

After doing a little research, its seems that USB audio support is enabled in the S3 kernel. There seems to be a fair bit of support for implenting this feature accross a range of devices.

I also note that the cheap C-media chips are recognised by the S3 kernel. So I'm going to buy one, as they are cheap as chips. I realise the sound quality won't be up to much but its a step in the right direction, as I don't currently have and other USB audio devices.

So, I fancy a little kernel compiling. I have done this on linux systems many years ago and I still compile the odd program when I have to. There seem to be some kernel compiling good guides, but I am wondering if anyone else is looking into this feature, or can suggest a good place to start. Is it worth starting with an S3 kernel, (I guess not) or should I start from scratch, or another kernel I like? Anything I compile and test will have cifs support, as its something I can't do without.

I also see the Glados kernel for Nexus already has USB audio support.

Obviously I'm aware of the emmc erase issue, so starting with sources that disable this feature would be a good idea.

Am I completely mental or is this worth having a go at? I'm willing to wait a while if its too dangerous to try until Samsung release a fix for the SuperBrick.

I'll admit I'm rusty, but I have successfully complied kernels in the past.

Any comments will be graciously be recieved!

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] NBLive:
audio over usb

Galaxy Note has USB audio support too. Take a look at Samsung EDD-D1E1 Dockingstation for Samsung Galaxy Note. it's with Line-Out for external speaker.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] knightnz:
The note doesn't supply much power in the USB OTG configuration so may need to be an externally powered unit, or running via a hub.

As NBLive says, the car dock has a USB --> 3.5mm option which works fine with the Note (I was using it about 2 hours ago), so the support is there, we just need driver support for "generic" units.

It's also pretty much a non-issue for the S3 anyway as it's got the good Wolfson DAC rather than the crappy Yamaha (iirc) one the Note has.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] slinbin:
As I recall it the dockingstation only have analog audio (not usb audio but it might use the same connector), I have the dock somewhere, will check when I find it.

To OP, you are absolutely not alone on this one, It is one of the most requested features on Android (link).

There are also a few threads in the forum.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] krypton_the_slayer:
You are correct. The dockstation is just a usb connector with the sense pin 4 having a resistor of a certain value connected to ground, telling to phone to output analogue audio to the data lines of the usb circuit. This is similar to how the phone senses a USB OTG or MHL-HDMI cable.

What I'm talking about here is USB audio device driver support at the kernel level. Currently its not compiled into the Note's but is supported for a limited number of devices in the galaxy S3 kernel. Simplistically put, the phone doesn't have the drivers.

I've looked around at various config files in the Note and am now wondering if SPDIF audio can be outputted over USB. However, I could be wrong as the there is a lot of ancient crap left over from linux configs from 10 years ago, for instance, config files for Turtle Beach sound cards!

The other option is to use the MHL-HDMI adaptor and then an HDMI to digital audio but that's a bit clunky and given that the S3 can do what we want, it shouldn't be too hard.

The advantages of this are a higher quality audio, multi channel output from DTS surround Vidoe and audio and stereo line in recording. Although android is not the greatest OS for audio work due to latency issues, USB audio support is a step towards iphone like audio recording/mixing and effects work. The S3 can also support much higher Bit rates and sampling frequencies, upto 24bit/192kHz. Far better than CD quality, let alone mp3.

Many people can't hear or don't care for higher quality audio. I for one can tell the difference between mp3 and CD or FLAC. To be honest, listening to mp3's can sometimes be painful to my ears. If you can't hear the difference, imagine being forced to listen to everything on an AM radio!

Sorry to blabber on lol:p
