And to modify the boot logo, you'll need this:

gcc -O2 -Wall -Wno-unused-parameter -o 5652rgb from565.c
./5652rgb -rle < logo_M.rle > logo_M.raw
convert -depth 8 -size 320x480 rgb:logo_M.raw logo_M.png

gcc -O2 -Wall -Wno-unused-parameter -o to565 to565.c
convert -depth 8 logo_M.png rgb:logo_M_new.raw
./to565 -rle < logo_M_new.raw > logo_M_new.rle

can you tell me how to created the needed libraries?:confused:

thank you :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] singh_dd93:
getting some errors when trying to convert

do i need to install some thing??
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] M66B:
I am not sure what error you get, but you'll have to compile from565 and to565 yourself.

Did you succeed with that?

~/android/system/build/tools/rgb2565/to565.c

convert is part of imagemagick, so you might need to install that.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] ceroberoz:

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] M66B:
Did you install repo as the guide explains?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] singh_dd93:
Hey M66B can you please guide me to build a boot.img for CM10 with featuures like in your extended FreeXperia kernel
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] M66B:
Download the patch file, apply it and rebuild and you'll have the extended kernel.

In the spirit of open source I publish all my work, please do the same.

The patch file for CM10 might need rework, since it is from some time ago.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] singh_dd93:
how to apply the patch file and what rework does it need??

and do i have to build whole rom with brunch??

Edit:

I got to know how to patch and patched the kenel using

patch -p1<Cm10.patch

i had changed the filename to Cm10.patch

One request and question

Can you please update the patch file ?

Do i have to flah the modules for the OTG to work ??
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] singh_dd93:
I made the kernel using brunch

The governors and the I/O schedulers have been implemented

But the OTG does not work

Even after flashing the modules.

One more thing can you tell me how to add more governors like interactiveX

Thanks
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] M66B:
Sorry, but I will not update the patch file for CM10 at this moment. I don't mean this in a rude way, but if you want to develop yourself, you should be able to update it yourself. See it as a challenge to learn something. If you can't get it done, let me know where you got stuck and I will try to help you. I only keep updated what I use myself and ATM that is CM9.

If you flash your custom ROM, then you don't have to flash the modules.

If you flash your custom kernel only, you'll have to flash the modules.

OTG works for me, but maybe your OTG device draws to much power. In general your Xperia device can source only a minimal amount of power. Sometimes it is enough for an USB-stick, but sometimes it isn't. Solution: use external power. BTW, you need an app to mount the device, maybe that is your problem.

About adding governors: if you want to be developer, you will have to do this yourself. Use the governors from the patch as an example. The real challenge is to find reliable source code, that is tuned for Xperia devices.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] singh_dd93:
About the OTG the mouse and keyboard is working fine. It is just that the pendrives weren't working i.e. I was unable to mount them

I was reading about making patch files

got to know that a diff command is used to make the patches

I was reaing your .patch fil and I think the patch works only for mango as it edit "cyanogen_mango_defconfig"

correct me if I a wrong

I am new to linux and don't know much about its development and want to learn alot

can you just tell me how do I start. I am unable to see from where do i start to make patches

Thanks
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] M66B:
This is a better question ;)

Actually patches are just the result of changing (adding, deleting) source code.

Try changing the config file for your device analog to the one for mango and then do 'git diff' in the top folder of the project (in this example ~/android/system/kernel/semc/msm7x30) and you will get the patch for the changes you have made to the config file.

If you add files you will have to do 'git add <file name>' from the top project folder and 'git diff --cached' to get the patch for it.

Patches for the same project can be concatenated into a single patch file:

cd ~/android/system/kernel/semc/msm7x30
git diff > ~/path/to/Cm10.patch
git diff --cached >> ~/path/to/Cm10.patch

(Cm10.patch should be stored outside ~/android/system)

If you have a patch file for your changes, you can share it like I did, but you can also apply the patch again when you have synched with the source tree again:

cd ~/android/system
repo forall -c "git reset --hard"
repo sync

(this will erase all your local changes and fetch all changes made in Cyanogen)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] singh_dd93:
I made a .patch file to patch the deconfig of smultron, mango and coconut together using your help and then built the boot.img and it is working perfectly

thanks for help

if i have to make a patch file for a new governor from

https://github.com/DooMLoRD/Xperia-...mmit/91454277d4f2cd5f252f17c2b515d5a4ff733533

what should i do.

Do i have to download the whole source code and then run diff command??
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] M66B:
First of all, do not quote large messages from others, it makes the readibility of the forum not better.

Dig a little bit deeper from the link you have posted and you will find the source code of the CPU governor you're searching for (click the tab 'Files'). After you have downloaded the raw file (there is an option for that), you can add it to your local sources. Look at the other governers for where to put it. Then you are not finished, look at the patch you have used to find the files to edit to configure and call the new governor.

It is easy for me to do, but then you'll learn nothing and never become a developer.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] singh_dd93:
Sorry for quoting

Do you mean that i download the repositry as zip file??
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] M66B:
No, I meant that you browsed to here:

https://github.com/DooMLoRD/Xperia-2011-Kernel-2.6.32.9/tree/master/kernel/drivers/cpufreq

You can download individual files from the repository.

And for your understanding, although the DooMLoRD / Xperia-2011-Kernel-2.6.32.9 source code is close to the CyanogenMod source code, there are a lot of differences. DooMLoRD has made a lot of modifications, but has stopped sometime ago and FXP has not all DooMLoRD's modifications (because of a difference in filosophy), but has updated the sources a lot of times. You can browse all updates of CM/FXP here.

Edit: I guess the CM10 kernel was originally copied from CM9. You can browse the changes of CM9 here.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] singh_dd93:

I guess you have editted the patch, that is not possible unless you modify the offsets too. You should edit the source code and not patches. Patches are only to record and to share what you have changed. They are not source code.

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] DuhDroid:
I downloaded and installed the stock 4.0.4 ICS from Samsung. Had to use Kies to get it. Got no notification even though I had my tab set to Auto Update, checked it manually and that is when I saw an update from Samsung for ICS. Attempted the download but it failed when I tried to install it, msg referred me to Kies which was successful.

I have not noticed any battery difference or WiFi issues others refer to. Once you install ICS you will see some changes....the Clock widget is different, the font has changed, and there are several changes to the Settings items.. Otherwise so far so good.

P6810 WiFi only Tab not rooted, Hong Kong version, running the Samsung stock ICS with Touchwiz. Shows kernel version: P6810ZSLP8
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] komadori:
So far I have only noticed minor cosmetic differences compared with the earlier official ICS release. The notice from Kies said it addressed stability issues.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] LBN1:
Can anyone tell me, what is the Kernel date for P6810ZSLP8? This one seemed to come out just about the same time as P6810XXLPL. I'm not sure which is the actual latest, or if there any differences between the two.

I was on the first released ICS for the p6810, Firmware P6810XXLPK. It showed Kernel date July 2, 2012

Just upgraded to Firmware P6810XXLPL. It shows Kernel date July 17, 2012.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] DuhDroid:
Mine shows the following: 3.0.15-P6810ZSLP8-CL91031

se.infra@SEP-64 #3

SNP PREEMPT tue Jul 17 23:11:57 KST

2012

So I guess it is the July 17th, 2012 Kernel version. Not sure what the difference between them is. Mine is the Hong Kong version of the 7.7, maybe that has something to do with the different Firmware numbers
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] ascariss:
Just installed the new firmware via Kies after resetting my CSC, so far so good but feels maybe a tad slower than the previous build.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] Nutsonfire:
Yes im thinking the same, i feel this one lags a little more, not done a hard reset though after updating. Maybe im wrong but its my feeling too.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] ascariss:
I have found a work around with the lags, decided to install Nova Launcher and it is now much smoother than before, infact it might be a bit quicker than the previous ICS build. Plus I found a nice clock-date widget which looks good and fits.
[Asus Transformer TF700] chucky7910:
So I was one of the unfortunate early upgraders who bought the TF201 only to realize they are replacing it with the TF700 (It's even the same price and the prime was!). I have a chance to upgrade via an exchange (I bought my prime at bestbuy and can do manufacturers warrenty exchange through them). I was wondering if there is anyone else out there who has done the same thing....does the TF700 have the same problems? any new ones I should know about?
[Asus Transformer TF700] fsured:
I moved from a prime to this device and don't regret it. The problems that seem to continue here are the I/o lags, screen bleed, wifi/bt video sync, single weak sounding speaker. The wifi signal itself is better, GPS works, and recent firmware has made the system run better for many. I say go for it if you can. It would be an even exchange in price for a better tablet. You may get a device that doesn't have any problems.
[Asus Transformer TF700] androidxen:
Do you have a good comparison of io performance between the current updated TF700 and stock Prime, and i.e. Androwook Prime?
[Asus Transformer TF700] fsured:
I don't have comparisons but there are threads in the general section where people are running those tests. The scores aren't something that concern me much to warrant me running them on my tablet.
[Asus Transformer TF700] chucky7910:
I was able to do a manufacturer exchange on my prime and got an infinity ordered. I figured that the specs were better and the price was the same so why not. I have the accidental damage plan and BB return policy is really awesome so even if there are problems I'm confident that it will get fixed or I will get my money back......Looks like I'm moving over to this forum now.
[Asus Transformer TF700] androidxen:
Not interested in numbers either, just feedback...
[Asus Transformer TF700] cullenmq1:
I'm doing the same thing my infinity is ordered and I turned in my prime
[Asus Transformer TF700] ajamils:
I upgraded from TF201 and I do not regret the decision at all. Overall it is not a significant upgrade and if you have a fully working Prime and you will have to pay extra to get Infinity, I will not advise it... UNLESS you really want high def screen. If high def screen is not a priority then you might even look at TF300 (i currently own that as well).

I find that the camera flash is inconsistent when taking photos and makes flash photos appear muddy or white balance is off because the camera is not taking the picture at the right time. Examples below.

No flash

Automatic Flash

Using the app flashlight forcing the light to stay on during capturing

As you can see there is a quality difference but i wonder if any one else has this or if there is a fix ???.
[HTC One X] DANOFDANGER:
Bumbide bumb
[HTC One X] Hunt3r.j2:
Great question, but I believe flash is handled by the Imagechip, so it's probably a driver issue, therefore if there is no setting exposed in the camera app to fix this, then the only fix can come from HTC.
[HTC One X] diegosps:
My photos with flash are always yellowish.
[HTC One X] Laurentius26:
@Op,

Reason is simple.

Flash on a smartphone or any other device doesn't make sense to my opinion.

Maybe for some situations it will work but for most it won't on a tiny device with such a small flashlight.

Why do you think pro camera's have external flashes? ;)

In most situations it's better to use the camera without flash.

The only reason you need a flash is to shoot a moving object in low light conditions to get it sharp.

The object should be very close as it isn't possible to have a flash light so strong (with such a tiny bulp) that it can cover a distance further then one meter or more.

Actualy I don't know what the maximum distance is with the flash on hox but everything after this distance will be dark because the light stops in a couple of milliseconds.

If the object isn't moving you don't need a flash, only a slower shutter or larger diafragma to catch the subject in low light condition.

It would be cool if HTC would make a socket for external flash in any futher device. :laugh:;)
[HTC One X] HebeGuess:
If i'm not mistaken from what HTC said this is the first smartphones implemented with smart flash. The auto-flash's brightness is auto-adjustable accordingly on the object distances and enviroment brightness. They only mentions this on MVC, but not on ads. Wondering why, maybe could lead to IP issues.

Please note that I am not commenting on the photos quality, just telling what I know.. Pretty interesting features, you may try it yourself..
[HTC One X] vallandil:
That the white balance is off is very logical.

Or did u change the balance before taking the shot..
[HTC One X] DANOFDANGER:
Yea your right but some people make use of that, like sometimes i might want to go out to my car at night to take a picture of a book or anything impartcular or when im out with my girlfriend in th dark and we take pictures together real close. I do understand however it does nothing for widespread shots.

The white balance is off because the camera misfired at the wrong time and captured the light at its weakest output.

The files should write directly to your external. And with that setup, your ssd is likely to be reading a heck of a lot more than writing. Reading has nearly no affect on drive life. Hope that helps a bit.

[Off-topic] mikef:
If you are using Windows, then the default temp folder is on the C: drive, so it is possible that it might download the files to the temp folder, and then copy them to the target folder once the download is completed. Not sure on your particular torrent app how that might work, but downloads through the browser for instance are going to be staged through temp. Open Start, Run, and type %temp% and hit enter to see you current temp folder and where it is located. It will likely change once you logout/login.
