It could be due to the unending javascript errors that the XDA site throws in chrome (unsafe Javascript attempt to access iframes in a different domain - their advertisement frames). All these errors get logged to the console, which could be causing chrome to hang.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Entropy512:
Maybe you should try reading the thread before posting? After all, I've been pretty damn clear in the past few pages what the status of each patch is.

In addition I've linked to gerrit for every single patch in question earlier in the thread, which makes it easy to determine their status without asking here.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] jbounours:
I've been playing with your test build and it is real good stuff.

Finally makes me drop CM9 and keep this for daily. This should be merged to nightly soon ;)

Just reporting that I have been using Entropy latest test built for the last 8 hours, running very smooth, I have installed more than 100 apps with all the apps running perfectly, using Apex pro launcher with 2 exchange accounts setup. Will report later about battery usage. Recent apps with long home press for the first time on the note is as fast as the GS3, usually it is very laggy with ICS on CM9 and Stock.

Bluetooth connects and plays perfectly with my pioneer car stereo with song names displaying as well.

Thank you for this excellent ROM, will be using it as my daily driver.

Best

As seen in the videos posted by DaanJordaan, Entropy's build is slightly snappier compared to StNick's build . I am using Entropy's build for past 8 hours , its really smooth , i think entropy has incorporated project butter successfully into cm10 , hoping to seen it in next nightly . As far as battery is concerned , its not that good compared to cm9 , but as its just a test build , its alright , we can use it as a daily driver . Congrats Entropy and many thanks to you . With devs like you we need not wait for samsung for their official jelly bean release . I recommend ppl to try entropy's test build ( everything is working as far as i ve seen ) and admire h:good:is work . No other rom i have flashed till now has this response speed and smoothness . :good::good::good::good:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] blaze2k:
Entropy's build is GREAT first time I could say cm10 is better than cm9.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Beretta93:
I am on entropy's build with open source hwcomposer and it runs fine, no memory leak for now. Autonomy is as bad as cm9, not worse. Overall great feeling.

But I think that this is a wrong place to post builds right? You should open a thread onthe dev section and keep it here for user's comment, since not everyone comes here often, not to grab new builds at least. Then you could get more users' feedback...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Entropy512:
Can you get the following for me:

Blob hwc (see ZIPs I posted a few pages back)

Opensource HWC from the ZIP I posted a few pages back

No HWC at all (remove /system/lib/hw/hwcomposer.*)

All from the same build (mine or StNick's, the only real difference is hwc)

I'm also working on a second opensource hwc that fixes up a few inconsistencies - but might not actually do anything...

Please compare hwcomposer opensource2 in addition to the above.

For others, the original zips are at http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=32170797&postcount=776

Flash and test one at a time... Any one of these you flash will undo anything done by previously flashed hwc zips.

I'm starting to see a lot of evidence that opensource hwc and no hwc are behaving identically... :(

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] meisell:
Looks like open 2 is more fluid but maybe just placebo is the new hw is already 60@60? How to check it how many GPS do we get with each one?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] mb0108:
For me it also feels more fluid. Very fast!

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Entropy512:
One of the tweaks in open2 is that hwc reports itself as capable of 57 fps... There is also a tuning parameter dependent on this, but it seems to be fairly minor in its effect. Even without those two tweeks, we have vsync events triggering at 57 fps.

Both of them are extremely minor tweaks with questionable benefit.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] blaze2k:
Is there a discussion thread for the official nighties?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] LordManhattan:
Use this thread.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] meisell:
Maybe it is minor but I think that you should proceed with open hw it is giving very promising results, it is also hope for future
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] blaze2k:
The latest official nightly from 30 is it based on Entropy's latest build? What is usually the flow of the things, there are some unofficial nighties tested and the best or a mix goes official? Cause till now I've been flashing official ones but I noticed Entropy's latest is the best I've tried.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] StNickZA:
My testing would appear to back this up. :eek:

I find this especially bizarre as the speed of CM10 on our device went from unusable without Hydracore, to at least as quick as CM9 when the new Mali patches were included... I guess we all just assumed that we had hwcomposer to thank for it.

Ultimately, I think we can look at this as a positive; I installed CM10 on my wife's HTC One X yesterday and I have now seen what butter TRULY feels like, and nothing I've seen on our device comes close. So if this means that we can still look forward to a working hwcomposer and vsync at 60fps, even if only when Samsung release the source, then that's a good thing...

Thank you.:)

Sent From The GT-I9300 Beast!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Entropy512:
Yeah... I've been too busy with the hwc stuff to do thread maintenance... At some point I want to create an official "nightlies" thread.

The changes between open1 and open2 were minor... However, open has some major regressions, like broken 720x480 Netflix. As I've mentioned, interestingly enough, that's the EXACT same behavior as no HWC...

Problem is, Samsung releasing kernel source for this device won't help... Even official JB for I9300 has "fake veggie butter" like this.

They have yet to EVER release hwcomposer source - the closest is the Insignal sources, which are what our opensource hwc is based off of. Samsung is notorious for diverging significantly from what little reference source exists for Exynos, which is why codeworkx ragequit I9300 and bought an Xperia T, and why the N8013 may be my last Samsung. I'm just sick of making their device appear more valuable to a particular market when they don't cooperate at all. codeworkx and I have a fairly high level contact within Samsung, however, sadly, her management never seems to allow her to do what needs to be done, and the other departments within Samsung are either utterly ****ing clueless or outright lying to her, as they keep on giving her false information that is totally inconsistent with reality.

For example: Claiming UEALGB for N8013 is an unofficial leak that was pulled. (Reality: UEALGB is the official release preinstalled on all USA Note 10.1 units.)

Another example: Claiming MMC_CAP_ERASE was enabled on all I9100 kernels, and that its absence from I9100 Update4 through Update6 was a mistake. Seriously - they would rather claim they were violating the GPL than to be truthful! (The reality is - I9100 binaries prior to XXLQ5 most definitely did NOT have MMC_CAP_ERASE enabled.)

The flow is:

Someone submits a patch to gerrit.

The patch enters the review cycle

Other developers can cherry-pick that patch into their sources, and can even amend and reupload it. This is where the new mali drivers currently are.

Once it is confirmed that patch doesn't have regressions and is an improvement, it gets merged into the source tree used for nightlies

For many patches, the testing is done internally by the active developers who participate in gerrit reviews. However, sometimes a patch needs a LOT more testing, so maintainers will do a custom build including the candidate patches. That's why espenfjo and I have been doing test builds for I777/N7000/I9100

Right now, for I777/I9100/N7000, the New Mali patches are solid and stable, but the Tab guys are having some issues. The patch can't merge until they fix the issues, or we make new vs. old Mali configurable so only devices with working new Mali use it.

But thanks a lot for the stuff you and you guys do. Its your hobby but in the end makes so many peeps like me so happy. I believe there is no proper way to say thanks and show some true respect. Kudos, guys. Kudos.

Amen to that. No more Non-nexus devices for me. It's a waste of $600 USD.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] schaggo:
opensource hwcomposer 2 feels snappier than the other two by the way. While felt differences between the two OS variants might be placebo, differences between the blob release and OS2 are noticeable. OS2 feels snappy right away after booting the device while the blob release didnt perform this good even after letting the device settle.

As said above, I dare to say 2 feels better than 1, I'd accept it if someone accused me of wishful thinking though. Waiting for the high-fps vids. Cool stuff that is.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Entropy512:
http://d-h.st/L8S

Contains opensource2 HWC. The previously posted HWC blobs will all work.

New Mali is of course included - It's going to be merged as soon as the Tab guys figure out why it breaks their FIMC.

Also includes a patch to debug RILJ wakelocks if anyone encounters them. Anyone who encounters excessive RILJ wakelocks should pull a radio logcat.

adb logcat -b radio -v time -d > logcat.txt

Also includes a kernel patch that reduces modem driver debugging... It SHOULDN'T affect RIL crash issues, but some people are reporting it does... Maybe Samsung put some debugging into a really bad place, I don't know.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] mburrieza:
I had previous experiences with Motorola and LG high end devices and I can tell you that both suck compared to Samsung (S2 and Note). Also had more or less bad experiences with Sony Ericcson and HTC, but as those were not high end devices the comparison is not fair. There are not many more options... Note 2 and international S3 already have 4.1, not full HWC, but better than the rest.

While I have the option I will not buy a phone that cannot be factory unlocked or "easy xda" unlocked. Dev versions are a no go for me, also any webpage to unlock is not ok for me. The dev community in those cases will never be big enough and contradicts the open spirit of android. This kills HTC, Sony and Moto with current stock locked/encrypted OS/kernels.

The nexus option seems fine but:

1) I need a micro sd slot or at least a 64Gb version. The slot will never be included in a nexus due to Google cloud push, even if it could save them a lot of money. Some games and apps already use 2gb of storage alone. The cloud is not everywhere yet and even with a good connection I have 200 installed apps that need space. Nandroid backups take higher space every month and Titanium backups...Not to mention dual boot or 100MB/minute HD video filmed with the phone.

2) I need to buy it locally. The nexus only sells in US initially and comes too late to other countries, if ever come. No support or warranty outside US for months.

3) I need a good camera and most with kids will agree. The Note camera is nice. Nexus fast is not enough...

4) I want high end phone hardware that at least last 12 months current. Nexus 7/ GN is going the other way: good specs with an unlocked great place, but not high end.

I hope that the 5 different nexus story is true and we can choose the best nexus for us.

In fact I believe he was most interested in a comparison of the newest custom build with a) open hwc 1 versus same rom but b) open hwc 2. Because he is unsure if the changes introduced to his open hwc in "version 2" actually yield any improvement over "version 1".

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Entropy512:
Correct. Don't care about the nightlies - those still have old broken Mali and are guaranteed to suck/memleak, and in fact opensource HWC will do totally unpredictable things if the kernel isn't offering vsync. Nightlies won't include new Mali until we can figure out why it's breaking FIMC for the Tab guys.

Latest build (which currently includes opensource2).
