Aren't we all overlooking intel's medfield?

The Motorola RAZR i has a z2640 which is able to turbo to 2GHz, SGX540 clocked at 400mhz. It has got a weak qHD screen though.

I dunno, even the A9 quad cores don't do it for me. Pretty much anything a15 dual core smokes them in preliminary real world testing. Even the S4 Krait cores do a good job keeping up.
[General Topics] Hemlocke:
Ick, SGX540?? That's just bad. The A6 proves that clock speed doesn't compare with next-gen chips, and the 540 is an OLD GPU.

a antutu benchmark score of 24000 is far over the 4x or any other phone, the record for it is i think abut 15000(i have got 14256) and the whole antutu record list holds a max of 18000 i think:rolleyes:

That is what i call denial, fame instead of quality? I had to choose between the two and i chose it for several reasons, but the number one reasonis because it is LG, owning an LG Optimus 2X which still hasn't got ICS, i must say Jellybean on the 4X must be a dream, just like ICS on the 2X and if you think LG got quality you are wrong HTC>LG the One X feels much better in hand than my previous LG not to mention the One X screen is said by many as one of the best screens available and the 4X seems to be recessed into the glass as opposed to the One X which is very close to the glass and gives "floating icons" effect and superb viewing angles.

OneX is already a member of my family just not personally owned, and i would not pay that much more for a OneX.

denial is only when you do not know the facts, so you seem to believe in something wrong and is denial.

LG display is manufactor of HTC displays, LG produces an even better display for their own model colourwise. they got panels produced for iPhone which many seems to value as best display currently as well.

when it comes to having it in your hands, o4x is not slippery and it is quite easy to hold and manage with one hand without the phone slips or is not steady in your hand.

So the favorite would definately be a LG 4x display if you believe in calibrated display colours and accurate colours (try a Spectrophotometer and see for yourself) why , if it even would be , would you look at your mobile from a 100+ degree angle? something's wrong with that picture too, If you feel that would make you turn to a lesser quality display instead of the better.

The bad parts of LG, if you are a xda fanatic and modder, you can easily get more or less disappointed, but if you are a professional, LG mobile o4x is the perfect choice. but true, for xda modders, it might easily, and probably is currently a little disappointing to own it, if you planned to make a custom kernel for it.

anyways my o4x is still a great mobile, but very close to OneX and oneX would be my 2nd choice, no doubt.

hi guys!

I want to root my sensation xl and i've been reading all these guides. Dont want to start the process just in case i ruin my device.

Would really appreciate me if someone can teach me the instructions. Main thing that i really need to know are:

1. What is the best software/tools that i really need to have?

2. My device is currently locked with carrier (Vodafone), what do i need to do?

3. In case of mishap would i be able to reset back to stock?

Thanks

I have read the information on manually changing the boot animations, but has anyone used a tool to do it? Rom Tool Box and a slew of other apps have change boot animation functions. I was just wondering if anyone has successfully used any stand alone app to accomplish this? also boot logos?
[Asus Transformer TF700] andyk11:
I tried Rom Toolbox but it doesn't chance animation on mine. I don't know nor can find where the settings or the directory is on the tf700 is to change it in Rom toolbox. If you know... please share it or a link to the answer. Thanks

Ice, rooted and unlocked. NVflash backup
[Asus Transformer TF700] Svashtar:
Boot Animations works fine.

Apparemtly tf700 users can't get this to work either. just need to know which dir tf700 actually uses.
[Asus Transformer TF700] xcal321:
I've copied an LCARS one to /data/local and works perfectly.

How To Change, Customize & Create Android Boot Animation [Guide]
[Asus Transformer TF700] andyk11:
Thanks for the info. I saw that and tried it but no luck. Not sure what I'm doing wrong. Tried to change it with ROM Toolbox pro also an doesn't work. Am rooted and unlock but no JOY. I did find the /system/media/bootanimation.zip file but it just doesn't load.

Update: I copied the animation.zip files to both /system/media and also data/local. The only thing that loads is the White Asus sign for about 5 sec then a Black screen for about 20 sec then boots normally. Theres got to be a setting that directs the bootanimation file to load but can't find what file the boot looks for to load where to find bootanimation.zip.
[Asus Transformer TF700] xcal321:
This, to me, looks like the animation is corrupt or is not a boot animation. Check out this tool. Restore the original animation to /system/media and then use the one in the link of my previous post and put that in /data/local.
[Asus Transformer TF700] andyk11:
Thanks. I checked out the program and tried it but got errors pushing the file. to /media but it worked going to /local. tried previewing with romtools pro but not working. I'm stumped. Found a bunch of treads for this problem but nothing. files are not corrupted. I can get the boot animation files to run outside of android on a pc ect but not while trying to get them to animate inside there folders.... /local or /media. Somewhere in the boot process it's not loading. Need to find out why the White Asus animation works for a few seconds and where it is. It used to turn Brown/ Goldish and rotate but no longer. Anyone else with any guess's?

Also: Forgot to mention am using the JB bootloader.
[Asus Transformer TF700] xcal321:
Have you tried viewing the animation in the tool I mentioned?

That is not the boot animation of Asus, it's a still image embedded in either the bootloader or something close to it. It's not mean to be customized, the metallic ASUS logo with the light effect and then the circular progress indicator are part of the default bootanimation.zip

I haven't given up yet :) Would you be willing to share the bootanimation that you are trying to use, with us. This way we can have a look an see if it works for us.

As am I. I'm on JB 4.1.1 (WW 10.4.4.18).
[Asus Transformer TF700] andyk11:
Yes of Course I'd be willing to share it. As I said I can view it outside of the floders on a Windows PC running the boot animtion progam. The one I was tring to install comes with RomToolbox Pro. The droid Peeing on an APPLE...:) need a few hours sleep as am to tied to keep messin with this. will get back to you... OH... I deleted all animation zip files also and still get the ASUS screen. non animated. whereever that file is it's corrupted I think.
[Asus Transformer TF700] andyk11:
Sorry for the wait. I have no way of uploading the animation file in question here. Looking for somewhere to upload it so you can look at it but as I said the file is not the problem. I need to reinstall the bootloader which is 9.4.5.30r01 Not sure how to just do that as I haven't looked into it. The 9.4.5.30r01 came from the nvflash tread in this forum. I need to research if I install a jb bootloader if I still have nvflash "JUST IN CASE" Have a nice day.
[Asus Transformer TF700] xcal321:
No problem, I have ROM Toolbox myself and got the animation. While playing around (copying animations to my tablet from my NAS) I figured out what might be wrong on your side.

Make sure your bootanimation.zip is in /data/local and set the file permissions to rw-r--r--.
[Asus Transformer TF700] andyk11:
Thanks I already tried that. I found that in a post days ago but no luck. permissions where set right. Since my last post I updated to the 10.4.4.18 the odex version and I got bootanimation back. I backed it up using trwp 2.3.1.0 and tried changing it with Rom toolbox again. I set the paths to data/local in the settings. I installed the new bootanimation.zip file and rebooted. It would not boot up at all. Got past the white asus and went blank and I waited 10-15 min but noting. I rebooted by holding down power button for like 10-15sec and still would not boot up. Had to go back to trwp and reinstall my .18 backup and it started right up. Am going to give up for now till I can find out what is causing this for me and not others. Theres just something I'm missing and haven't pinned it down. Thanks for your time and effort. really appreciate it.

Update: 10-22 @11:34 pm. I got it working...:) Installed CleanRom 2.3 http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1919851

Not even sure what I did other than flashed, wiped and reset. I checked the location of the bootanimation directory in this rom and it was only in /system/media. I read all the treads and info I could find. I used Rom Toolbox pro https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummy.liberty.toolboxpro&feature=search_result and changed settings to install it in /data/local as everywhere I read suggested that directory. If you've read what I've tried in the past I already did that over and over. Checked the permissions of the file and all. the one thing I didn't do was remount the zip file after copying to the directory. I didn't think I would have needed to since toolbox would have handled that... I though. Thats the only thing I can think of why it wouldn't load on boot is because it wasn't remounting. Anyways. I got it working but to be honest I still don't know why and I actually wanted to know why... A learning experiance if you want. One more time... Thanks a million for your time.
[Asus Transformer TF700] blackmambazzz:
The reason why it don´t work is that Asus maybe has integrated a check of system files in some asus app or in the kernel (don´t now)

Changing Bootanimation does only work for me with a cleanrom and cm10.

as you sad when you change it in the stock rom it wont boot anymore. :(

So Asus dont want that someone removes their bootanimation i think
[Asus Transformer TF700] xcal321:
You don't have to remove/replace the Asus bootanimation. Just place your own in /data/local set the correct permissions and you're good to go.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jtegg007:
Heres the deal, Ive had my original Epic4g for 2 years, I still love it but its worn out. I bought a new(used) one on ebay for cheap, ad said it freezes on boot and the owner couldn't fix it. sounded like a simple brick.

I received the phone, trying to turn it on loads the black SAMSUNG screen, the keys and soft touch buttons eventually light and then it freezes as such.

It will boot to download mode (1 + power) and will connect to ODIN, but Ive restored with various PIT/PDA combinations(follewed this guide first-> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1052813) All say "Succeed 1/ failed 0" but they never get a different result (will still freeze at SAMSUNG with captive keys lit).

Also, Ive tried flashing a CWM-5 .tar and cannot get it into recovery. (yields same result, frozen w/ captive keys lit).

I HAVE tried odin 1.???, odin 3.04, different USB cables and a different computer. I dont believe communication is my issue.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tazfanatic:
Try a heavy duty blackberry cable as a last resort also remove battery and SD card if there is one. Odin again try to turn on if it still fails I would say truly hardware issue.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jtegg007:
=( I am def using a heavy duty blackberry cable and ive had much success with it. I will try pulling the battery and SD card, thank you for that advice.

As for the hardware, Thats my big worry here, I'm hoping that's not the case... Messing with the phone, it feels like it has a missing/corrupt partition. does formatting with Odin in the PDA slot replace the boot section? (still learning what does what here :p ) If not, how can I reformat the boot partition?

Also, just for the sake of not giving up anytime soon, is there anyway to flash a custom rom/kernal(CM9 maybe?) through odin?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
Make sure to include the PIT file included with odin. This will repartition the device and restore all as stock. We do not currently have any odinable current ROMs. I have an old EC05 froyo Odinalble prerooted rom in my archive but that is it.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shinydude100:
It might be physical damage and not software corruption.. pretending it isn't though, verify that you're flashing the rom under PDA and not phone, frustration and desperation can make us do the most silliest mistakes.

Old thread head:

Hi, i'm new to this forum as i've recently bought this device from my friend as my beloved Streak has a nice wallpaper (smashed screen).

I'm not really able to see who is developing anymore and who doesn't, also, i have some dev-in skills so i can help to mobilise this forum as this device is great so let's get to work!

My ideea is to get in one place all the DEV's that are working on some ROM's and all the ones that are willing to test new things.

I would say that the best road for this device would be CM9 fully functional, CM10 fully functional and maybe, maybe an universal kernel.

I wait your suggestions and i hope i can help with something around here :)

[HTC Sensation XL] kunev:
I am a programmer(well familiar with C and linux, some basic knowledge about kernels), although my android dev skills are quite questionable, but if anyone can point me to good resources on porting ROMs with linux(I've only seen tutorials on doing stuff in windows) I would gladly help with anything I can, from development and research to testing. We have an awesome, and I believe utterly underrated, device. I would love to participate with anything I can!
[HTC Sensation XL] Lexmazter:
I totally agree with you, this is another underrated device, like my other device i have (see signature), i'm just like you, well familiar with C and linux and same and maybe some good knowledge about scavanging ROM's and porting to other devices, so welcome to the club!

I recommend some tutorials for starters, found here, here and here.

Note that those tutorials are not written for our device, so differences will surely occur in places, but is a good place to start, also, Google is a good friend, they have nice tutorials about Android found here.

In my opinion, porting ROM's is more research and testing that research and development.
[HTC Sensation XL] MadCobbler:
I totally agree, but porting roms to me is the easy part, it was a lot of trial and error and I got many many roms booting, but without the right kernel they were kinda not much use. So I then spent many hours trying to compile an AOSP kernel for this device, but as I am kinda new to the kernel thing, I wasn't very successful.

For anything to do with compiling you will need to get very used to using github.

I used to have a Dell Streak too and loved it ;)
[HTC Sensation XL] Lexmazter:
Well, i'm hitting my head against the rock, trying to learn as much as possible about kernels, development, editting, in a sentence, all that involves linux kernel for android.

My adantage is that i'm experienced in C language (not Guru, experienced :)).

Well, i'm kind of young (20 years old) so i think i can learn those things at a fast pace, but soon i'm going back to school (college), my main project now is to figure out all the kernel tweaks i can find, how can i model it to my liking, and how to make it as universal as possible (to support GB, ICS and maybe the future JB release if it will be ported :)).

Untill then, no progress will be made by me as i like to start with the hard things first, also, JB in my opinion should be build up from source (many hours of compiling) to ensure maximum functionality.
[HTC Sensation XL] MadCobbler:
Well my advice would be don't try to learn it all at once, because it will just get confusing, just try one thing at a time and once you've got that, everything else should start making a little more sense, well it did with me ;)

To be honest if you're wanting full functionality from CM9 it would be better compiling it from source, because starting with ICS the kernel is built when you compile the rom, rather than working on a port of it.

As far as kernel development goes, I would suggest starting with this. Here is DutchDanny's github from his OC kernel for GB and you can then look and understand what has been changed and maybe try to port them over to ICS kernel, click on where it says branch and change it from master to BinDroid kernel. Then you will need to start learning on how to use 'git gui' and on how to add patches from one kernel to another.

Obviously you would need to download the original source files for the kernel and they can be found here https://github.com/htc-mirror/runnymede-ics-crc-3.0.16-c297c99.git

I would suggest looking at this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1039854 as it suggests the tools you would need for kernel compiling ;)
[HTC Sensation XL] Lexmazter:
Thank you very much for the info, the source files are downloaded since i bought the phone :), still looking through them, i downloaded them from the htcdev.com, i'm a little low on space on my laptop to try and compile from source a whole ROM so i'm starting with the kernel, and see what makes what and who does who, i'm planning to buy an external HDD soon enough. Honestly, the hardest part to me in all this dev-ing is to keep researching, as i'm a little lazy, but for now i can tell you that i''m addicted to ROM development, scavanging, tweaking, reading and things like that, i think the hot sun had some odd effects on me :)
[HTC Sensation XL] MadCobbler:
Yeah you will need about 30gb for a full rom compile and anything up to about 90gb for a series of compiles lol. The initial repo sync is about 6gb....
[HTC Sensation XL] Lexmazter:
External HDD coming soon, compiling and experimenting coming soon :)

Since then, aquiring tools, looking around source codes, comparing kernels, right now i'm comparing source kernels and trying to figure out how the hardware really works :)

Hope to compile something worthile soon enough :)
[HTC Sensation XL] Lexmazter:
New thing discovered today, if you hit the factory reset from S-OFF Hboot bootloader, the sd-card becomes corrupted, nice discovery, no nand recovery no nothing now :)

I was able to make it alive again by mounting via recovery and formatting from windows...

Hope this helps someone else out there...
