EDIT: Do not use the June 28 kernel/the first link I gave or it will leave your ROM in an unbootable state. I have removed it and added the link for the June 18 kernel instead.

EDIT2: According to the thread they're from, both the June 18 and June 28 kernels cause bootloops and do not work.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] satishp:
Has anyone ever managed to push the Exynos Dual processor and Mali 400 in the Note to its limits with any application or game other than a benchmarking app? Have you seen the chipset struggling anywhere so as to make us consider going to something with the Exynos Quad?

Its just a doubt of mine as, so far I havent seen or tried any app which makes the dual core struggle anywhere.

try cooltool to check cpu frequency, it might not be a performance of phone issue, but game coding issue
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] satishp:
I guess you read my question wrong. I dont have any performance issues whatsoever. What I meant to ask was if anyone has managed to truly push the Dual core Exynos to its limits with any application or game excluding benchmarking tools. i.e, is there any application or game out there at present that can make our year old hardware struggle?

I asked this because I have a Galaxy S3 and a Galaxy Note and I prefer the Galaxy Note due to its screen size compared to the S3 and I dont have any present intentions to get the Note 2 as I've already put money on the S3 this year. Moreover my Note is just 3months old which makes it pointless for me to upgrade so soon.

I was planning to give one of these phones to my dad who is not a "power user". He would just use the phone for calls, texts, VOIP and browsing. So it doesnt matter to him whichever phone it is.

The only disappointment for me with the galaxy Note is the "clipping" which seems to appear in videos and shadows every now and then. Otherwise its perfect.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baz77:
yep I understood wrong, I havent found such a game

supposedly, a benchmarktool should do that, but even then if I dont set min max on highest frequency it doesnt stay that way.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] letters_to_cleo:
Load some Hi graphic intensive games bud... NOVA 3, Batman (the dark night rises) and etc.... while playing, run some VOIP apps, emails and etc... While running those simultaneously, make a graphic intensive presentation and load it on your phone (thru Polaris).

Then switch back from the games your playing, to the apps you've open in the background...

See if you will be getting this after.

1. Extreme lags.

2. Force Close on some open apps.

These are some of the things I can think of in checking for Performance bottlenecks... If your phone passes this with flying colors... then GOOD. If not, so there's your answer on the Dual-Core chipsets limitation

Dude I know what you mean. Right now I think there is nothing out there to fully use the duke core to it's fullest potential. Only the ram is the main issue for me on my note. I just traded my s3 for a TMobile note. Dumb? Maybe but I like the bigger screen and stylus. I just wish it had more ram. The s3 over all is alot smoother in everything. IM still getting the note 2 when it's available.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChodTheWacko:
I have noticed that backgrounds of games tends to scroll in a choppy fashion.

For example, try

Garfield's Defense: Attack of the Food Invaders

And just run to the right and watch the background - you'll see it doesn't scroll smoothly at all.

Same thing happens for most HD games that have scrolling backgrounds - broken sword, seven stars 3d, etc.

gameplay itself seems mostly fine, but the choppy backgrounds are really distracting.

Every now and then the Note tends to start lagging, especially when syncing.

Try syncing facebook contacts via haxsync and the note will be grinding while that's going on.

Yes, I know here we are in a SW contest, but the question it's very simple, but I have not the answer.

Does anyone know some tools that can test the single hw component of i9000?

For example:

-camera

-sensor

-antenna

-etc...

I know that some diag it's available via some secret code, what I'm looking it's something more.

You might find some useful apps in the market, did you take a look there?

I know there's one for the gps at least.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NoBody20013:
hi,

i am interested too in such an app e.g.

my i9000 doesn´t connect to 3g/H (umts) anymore.

I installed CM9 and after that i recognized that it isnt working anymore. - but dont know if it was working before...

so, is there a way or an app for testing the umts modul? "G" and "E" is working great....

THX!

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vis80k:
I have been baffled by this since GB era, coz I couldn't figure out why the ram don't add up.

In JB, Settings > Apps > Running, shows a list running apps. you also have an option to see a list of cached apps.

Below the list is a bar graph clearly showing what's free. However, it is about the used part that I don't quite understand. From what I can see, the running apps only make up part of it.

In the attached email, I've marked with red rectangle for I don't know what, yellow rectangle for what I think is the running apps, and purple rectangle on the right for free memory.

Can anyone tell me what the red rectangle represents? Is it memory used by the system?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vidaljs:
Hi

Are u just asking for information purposes or is there a specific reason why you're asking.

Battery drain?

Slow processes?

Random reboots?

What ROM are u using?

Im just curious because it can help someone with their response to ur question.

And that is a cool font ur using. Did that come with the ROM or did u apply it?

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greg2826:
Yes 288mb used by system/apps
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vis80k:
short answer: slow processes, launcher redraws, laggy operation in general on Jellybro and XenonHD.

with ICS and a few initial JB roms, I totally forgot about this question at the back of my head.

But, I am on Jellybro (CM10 based) and also trying out XenonHD, with both installed after formatting/wiping data, system, cache, and dalvik, and I experienced redraws on launcher and lags in operation in general after a few 10 hours or so of system on time. I checked the running apps, and I saw that the left red rectangle is eating up almost 70% of the ram and only 30+mb shown as free memory.

running app list didn't show anything strange. It's just the free ram is extremely low.

So, I was wondering what the red rectangle area of the memory represented.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vis80k:
so, the red rectangle is showing what the system is using up?

I always thought system area of the memory was allocated separately and system was restricted to operate within that area...but from what I can see the red rectangle area varies from about 40% to up to 70% from what I can judge with my eyes...

but wait, I thought Nexus S came with 512mb RAM, of which part of it is force allocated to the system and not usable by user apps. So, 288mb is additional unusable memory? that would mean we only have about 100+ ram for my apps. that stinks... hm...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nun3s:
Nexus S came with 512mb RAM but from it a portion of that RAM is reserved for graphics and other internal stuff and leave you just with 384Mb for the rest.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greg2826:
With such a problems u might try Jelly Belly 1.5.1, I've been running since release and never had such a issue, everything is smooth like butter...

Regarding low memory, don't worry about that, when i fire up all my apps like stock browser, maps, pulse, flipboard etc, i have around 50mb free but still quite smooth.

Btw i tried Xennon and few others and there were laggy like hell on my phone.

Maybe i or my phone, or we both like stock feeling.... ;)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vis80k:
so os itself is using up the 384 that's left? and so the red rectangle is the os/system usage?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vis80k:
jellybro gave me a bit of lag..

xenon was almost unusable.

now am on slimbean and all's good.

similar to jellybelly experience :)

waiting for jb oxygen release or slimbean to level up to its slimics level~

just missing a few features like volume wake and media skip.

edit. low memory itself is not what's worrying me. it's the frequent launcher redraws and slow app launches and laggy!! response...which strangely doesn't haopen on some roms even with low free mem.... hm~
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greg2826:
We probably don't have enough ram/processor to run smoothly all those apps etc

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vidaljs:
Ur App "swipepad" is a memory hog according to reviews.

try the ROM bare boned... if its still lagging then try a different kernel. Or try for different ROM that does not lag bare boned.

Then add ur memory hog apps one at a time so u can pinpoint the main hog :)

Good luck.

BTW try the ROM I'm using... it has no lag.... paranoid android by DaXmax

Vs Nexus S4G using tapatalk2
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vis80k:
swipepad takes 6~7mb. never saw it go beyond unreasonable point.

besides, it doesn't count into the red rectangle on the left :(

as said adding all app memory use in the list does not add up to 300+mb it says is being used...

anyway. got on slimbean and everything smooth and good~

some says it is a cm10 issue and jellybro being kanged cm10, same problem.

but c'mon swipepad is good! can't live without it anymore....
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Articudos:
In application tab, it doesn't show available memory.

That number is "you can get this amount of ram by killing apps(background running...etc)"

When u using it long time, RAM(that value) reduces, so u have to reboot..

Otherwise, How about buying GNex..:p

BTW, what's ur font in screenshot?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vis80k:
...let me see if I understood you correctly.

do you mean that 288mb in my screenshot is what I can get back when I kill all running apps? That means, 288mb MUST equal to the sum of memory used by all the apps in the shown list.

Or, wait, do you mean the numbers next to each app in the list means how much memory will be returned when I kill that app? that just means that the app is taking up that much of memory...

in my screenshot, I have 3 rectangles. maybe they are not clearly contrasted to notice. red rectangle on the left, yellow rectangle in the middle, and purple rectangle on the right.

- purple rectangle on the right seems pretty obvious that 188mb of memory is currently free, of which some cached apps reside at the moment.

- yellow rectangle in the middle, I am guessing it represents the portion of used memory that the apps in the shown list are using.

- reason for this guess is because adding up all apps in the list does not equal 288mb.

- red rectangle on the left, I am guessing it represents OS using up.

- the 288mb seems to represent the SUM of yellow and red rectangle.

- so, 288 + 108 = 396mb is the total usable ram for my phone.

my question is, is my understanding of yellow and red rectangles correct? if not, I wanted to find out from you guys...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vis80k:
oh, and for those interested more in what font that is in the screenshot, the filename says fbplum...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Billchen0014:
there are other things taking memories as well, like scrolling cache, so if you can reduce that and other things, you get less memory hog, but slightly more laggy, and that's part of the reason why iOS doesn't support real multi-tasking.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Articudos:
512-39x=hardware takes ur ram, camcoder, radio...etc

39x=total ram for software

Blue rectangle=ur OS takes RAM+apps you are running(servies maybe..)+Loss of RAM by killing-running apps(reboot clears this)

108mb=Max. Amount of ram you can get when you launch other heavy apps(killing background cache)

:)

For me, cm10 jellybro(0810) works best, but according to benchmark, ram score is little bit bad..(Maybe it's meaningless..)

Let's just wait for rasbean jelly..
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Corioli:
Where can i get that
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vis80k:
on a mobile device with 512mb ram, of which only about 300mb is left available for OS and user apps, full multitasking is not a good thing. 'coz it requires users to take memory management into their own hands.

on newer devices with !GB+ ram, I guess Android OS will do just fine to manage memory.

anyhow, iOS can also run out of memory, right? requiring user to manually remove cached apps from memory, otherwise even iOS becomes laggy, is what I hear from iPhone users.

...and that's coming from an OS where tons of money went in to make smoothness and feel as best as possible~... iOS still gotta improve I guess.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vis80k:
here's the font in a flashable zip file.

boot to recovery, make sure system partition is mounted, then flash the zip.

credits go to the actual person who created the font, whom I have no idea of, and to the person who made it into a flashable zip.

if there's any problem with sharing this font here, let me know so I can take it down immediately.

Before I start, I just want to say I am completely new to the forums and this site in general, but look forward to being a part of the community. :) Cheers. :good:

Being a complete idiot at technology, I cannot seem to figure out how to root my Samsung Galaxy SII. The details of it are:

- Model Number: GT - I9100

- Android Version: 4.0.3 (ICS)

- Baseband Version: I9100DXLPA

- Kernel Version: 3.0.15-I9100DXLPB-CL709089dpi@DELL151 #3

- Build Number: IML74K.DXLPB

Can any kind soul provide this lonely fool on how to root his SGSII or a forum thread to how to? It seems that my baseband version is different and I cannot seem to find a root that works for it :(

Anyway, thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KeithOYS:
Hi,

Welcome to XDA. :)

You can learn how to root your SII running on ICS here.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ksilver89:
Check this out.

One simple advice, read (or repeatedly reading) before asking any question. In xda, there are more than enough guides for rooting, probably more than my underwears.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Noobyben:
Does both of this links work for my baseband version and kernel version? Is it universal?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ksilver89:
FYI, the baseband have nothing to do with rooting, it is commonly known as the "Modem". You only need to pay attention to the firmware (aka ROM) and the kernel. Read the whole guide, understand the risk of not following instruction before you attempt to start anything.

Edit: Using CWM to root will not give you Yellow Triangle nor increase in binary counter, because it doesn't need you to flash an insecure kernel. (which is the method 1)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stileth:
Use method 1 from 1st guide in my signature. You don't need CWM and it works for all ICS ROMs.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ksilver89:
Technically, you still need CWM, albeit for temporary usage.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Noobyben:
Thanks anyways guys! I will try to figure it out :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stileth:
Nope, you can flash the signed SuperSU zip file directly from stock recovery ;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ksilver89:
Didn't know that, thanks for the info.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KeithOYS:
Yes it does. As stated by Zedomax in the site - roots Galaxy S2 GT-i9100 on ICS (Ice Cream Sandwich Android 4.0+)

If you want more credibility, I rooted my phone successfully with similar specs as yours using that guide.

Hello,

So I recently bought a new GS3, and rooted it, when I went into Rom manager, and try to use it, it tells me I have to install Clockworkmod, and gives me a list of devices, but the GS3 is not on there, what should I do? I can still reboot into recovery, but anything else it tells me to install cwm, and gives me a list of devices, which doesn't have the Galaxy S3 in it. What can I do to get this working? Thanks.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] blasterrr:
I had the same issue for over a week. And off course I had CWM (Touch) installed. For me I didnt do anything special to ROM Manager. Just after few Cyanogen flashes my ROM Manager started showing all the options without the previous message.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Papaniz:
Yeah I don't know what the deal is, I guess it's not really important because I can still go into recovery, and flash roms with no issue. But I'll see if it just fixes itself out. If anyone has another solution please do share. :fingers-crossed:

[General Questions and Answers] fluxify:
Hey Guys,

I'm new to rooting phones so here goes: I have a Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc (LT15i) that comes stock with Android 2.3 GB. Without thinking I would need root access, I did a manual flash to Android ICS 4.0.4. It's working great and everything but now I need to have root access for certain applications that requires it some of which is Avast! Anti-Virus and Firewall.

I have read through some of the forums and it's quite confusing for a first-timer trying to get answers on how to root this phone. As I have come to learn, the version I have is not rootable (4.1.B.0.431) - standard/original Sony issue. Is there someone who is running ICS 4.0.4 on their Xperia Arc that has successfully rooted their phone? If so, how exactly did you do it? Links to the ROM's required would be much appreciated as well as detailed instructions (remember I'm new to this).

If I violated any rules by placing this question in the wrong forum topic, my apologies.
