Benchmarking is pointless, is the phone operating smoothly? No lags? If so stuff the benchmark, if not does it matter whether it's benchmarking well. I don't benchmark but doesn't quadrant have a site ? With rankings if so how do you compare.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maxwellz:
Can anyone please without shouting and screaming, explain me what is that "Mali" thingy?

Tried to understand from the Dorimanx thread, and still dont have any idea what is it..

please :]
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayroller:
Do you mean the Mali GPU?

It's kind of the equivalent of the graphics card in your pc.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Immortalis:
PC? You meant phone?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
No, his statement was an analogy. The Mali GPU is for the phone like a graphics card is for your PC.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Immortalis:
I misunderstood his post earlier

Nevermind.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chimerical26:
Why is it the hot topic at the moment? I noticed the name popping up at the same time that cm10 memory leaks were fixed... it seemed like a new version of dorimanx was released that was compatible with this newly updated cm10 and it had mali in the title. How come Mali appears in the title and does it have any relation to the memory leaks fix or am I getting it all mixed up inside in my head? (Most likely scenario)

---------- Post added at 10:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:32 PM ----------

Okay I've done some more searching and I think this is what it's all about... Up until now there has been a memory leak in CM10 due to not knowing how to have the Kernel interact with the graphics hardware (The drivers for the Mali Graphics chip were changed with the jump to Jellybean?) but now this has been fixed (probably as a result of obtaining and analysing the original Samsung jellybean kernel source code). Dorimanx's latest kernel uses this newer source code and as a result it has the name of the graphics chip (Mali) in the title.

Is that fairly accurate?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HAXTREME:
If you're talking about MALI, yes that's the GPU (graphics processing unit) Something like the equivalent to a graphics card on your computer.

However if you're talking about the smali code thats been altered to fix the memory leak issue, that has nothing to do with the GPU. Its a coding language. To be more precise, an assembler for the dalvik virtual machine your phone runs on.
[HTC One V] romah1:
Hi All

I built a Windows application that packs/unpacks the boot.img. I extracted the boot.img using clockworkmode. Over the internet I found that boot.img start with an header that the first 8 chars are: ANDROID!. How ever analyzing the file I found that the ANDORID! is in offest of 256 bytes ( 0x100 ) from file start . Does any one know what is this extra bytes ? Anyway using my unpack I break down the boot.img to its components and extructing the ramdisk shows the expected files that compose the ramdisk. I packed the components back and tried to flash the boot.img using flashboot but than I got the message "bootmagic check fail". Any help of how to solve this and what is the extra 256 bytes at start of the boot.img is appriciated

Thanks

So I've done quite a bit of searching and testing before coming here to post.

I've searched far and wide as well and I seem to be the only one having an issue.

I had read about the NVFlash. Read up on that, and said ok cool let's do it.

So I obtain the files, but initially I discovered I was having an issue on my Linux box getting fastboot to work. I initially got a "no permissions fastboot" reported from 'fastboot devices' Added the udev rules, and then I started getting "?????????? fastboot"

Decided for times sake, I would skip all that Linux stuff, grab the Universal Naked Driver ( which I had done previously to root/unlock my tf700)

Installed said Universal Naked Driver, booted into fastboot mode, and in Windows I get the same exact error... just displayed differently.

I get "? fastboot"

Any ideas?!?!

Thanks in advance for anything
[Asus Transformer TF700] vsTerminus:
'fastboot devices' doesn't work on our tablet (yet).

That said, the other commands should all work fine as long as you remember to pass the vendor ID 0x0B05 to it. For example,

fastboot -i 0x0B05 reboot

(Those are zeroes, not letters. Zero x Zero B Zero 5)

Try that. It should reboot your device just fine. I have also successfully flashed a couple of recovery images and the JB Bootloader using fastboot.
[Asus Transformer TF700] crizznaig:
This explains it perfectly, I didn't want to move forward until I got that to work, but thanks to you i know now it is just fine.

That reboot command worked perfectly thanks!
[Asus Transformer TF700] thunderger:
Thank you. It worked. :) This device is "crazy". Hopefully we will get CM10 "stable" in a short time.

Fastboot not working for me

fastboot is not working for my device at all. Neither of the following commands achieves the desired results:

C:\>fastboot devices
// nothing
C:\>fastboot -i 0x0B05 reboot
< waiting for device >
// stays like this until I cancel the command

I do see the device when I run

C:\>adb devices

To my knowledge, the device drivers were successfully installed. I'm on Windows 7 64-bit, I have the full SDK and all the platform tools installed, and I've used fastboot many times on my HTC Glacier (so it's definitely a working binary). Can anyone help me?

I'm a LG 2x user, but new to Xperia world.

I've flashed MiniCMSandwich Lite AOSP and loved the rom. The problem is my physical keyboard has a 'ç' key instead of a '?' key.

When in stock rom I changed /system/usr/keyboard-config/keyprint.xml writing qwerty-br in place of qwerty-en and it worked fine.

But in MiniCMSandwich this didn't work out even after flashing Xperia keyboard. I even tried to change the layout at qwerty-en.xml to put 'ç' in place of '?' but nothing happened.

This happened to Unlimited rom either.

Anyone has an idea what can I do to make it work?

[Motorola Atrix 2] KarylFStein:
I recently had problems getting the OTA ICS image installed on my Atrix 2. I finally got it to work by restoring the AT&T Address Book, (which I had removed with Titanium Backup), and unrooting the device. I’d like to make this easier for any future OTA updates. I’ve been reading a lot in the forums, but want to give my plan a sanity check.

First, I did a factory reset after the ICS upgrade and everything is stock. I haven’t put in any accounts or anything. I believe I want to do the following:

* Root the device using these instructions: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1742879

* Install the bootstrap recovery from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1346977

* Perform a nandroid backup.

* Set up my phone the way I want, removing bloatware, and recovering application data from my regular Titanium Backups on the SD card.

* Perform another nandroid backup when things are stable just in case I want to restore to a base state without having to install applications and configurations.

If a new OTA update comes out and it doesn’t work, I believe I can:

* Recover from the original nandroid backup.

* (Necessary and if so how?) Remove the custom bootloader.

* (Necessary and if so how?) Unroot the device, (the rooting link above doesn’t have the unroot batch file for ICS, but I read somewhere that it’s just a matter or removing a couple of files).

Does this sound like a solid plan? It took me several hours searching to get the ICS update to take on my phone and although I have a feeling Motorola won’t be pushing any more OTA updates for the Atrix 2, I want a fall-back plan if they do and they don't take properly on my phone.
[Motorola Atrix 2] RoadToNever:
Setting up the system so that it take well to future OTA seems like more effort than its worth if not a lost cause. Whats wrong with manually installing any future updates and restoring apps and settings with TiBu? Also I'd freeze apps rather than removing them with TiBu, that way you can quickly restore functionality if you run into problems. Please keep posting I love reading about how people handle these things.

Your on a custom rom which is aside from stock lol =p. But it appears its not so much leaked as someone used the li3 update somewhere if you have the issue to.

And jeez took everyone a week to find this thread =p on the sprint forums i believe all the reps have ignored the issue

Option to use it? As in a button where the speaker, clipboard, and settings are? It should just work if you use the Swype gesture. Before I took it off, all I had to do to use it was go from one letter to another without letting my finger come up (obviously:laugh:).
