[General Questions and Answers] OmRomRom:
Hey everyone. Idk what is up with my phone, This issue started today. I went to reboot into TWRP and the stock recovery had reflashed itself. Idk how. My phone was acting wonky after I messed with Set CPU settings so when I got home from work I reflashed a stock insecure .tar via Odin. After the fresh flash I downloaded Voodoo, protected root and then updated via OTA to UCALH9. After that I reflashed TWRP via Goo app and rebooted into recovery. Everything was normal so I made a backup and rebooted. Then I rebooted back into recovery to test the issue and see if it was resolved and... stock recovery again. Why and HOW is it reflashing itself? Help please?

Currently running the MIUI port. Gaming seems to be decent off the charger but if I am charging the phone it starts to lag most 3D games.

Question I have is, Whats the best rom for gaming and what games do you play?
[HTC Amaze 4G] Double0EK:
I know raf posted a link to fix a few things. Have you flashed the fixes?
[HTC Amaze 4G] crazykas:
Stock Rom or Stock based Rom.Currently im on GoSense & i don't have any problem of 3D gaming.Wild Blood too plays smoothly!
[HTC Amaze 4G] Sanadrate:
try Energy Stock with Adrino Drivers or whatever.
[HTC Amaze 4G] G1Master:
Yea I actually did and it the fixes did improve the FPS, just on that specific rom which I never noticed on other roms there is a signifcant FPS drop while the phone is charging via usb to computer or wall charger. Games that get impacted are 3D games, GTA 3, Six Guns etc...Rafy says he does not have this issue so Im not even sure

Thats good to know maybe ill jump back onto a sense based rom to see.

Will do thanks

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EdWood110:
Hi Guys,

I think the internal memory of my wifes phone is dead. Her phone all of the sudden turned off, then it was stuck in a bootloop. I tried to play back a nandroid backup but I always got an error message that the data partition was not being wiped... I used Odin then to flash back to stock and do a repartitioning of the phone. Odin works fine, then the phone reboots trying to apply the new rom, but it stops, telling me that the data partition again could not be formatted. :(

Is the nand-flash broken or is there a way to make it work? I can only use the download mode now, or use the regular 2e recovery... any tips are highly appreciated. :)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsgun357:
With the influx if new inexperienced vibe users I must ask, does your device have a stock front facing camera?

Paranoid, sitting in a deep sweat...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EdWood110:
Lol,

no it does not, it is really the Vibrant T959 not the V not anything else. I am used to flash custom roms. It happened before, even playing Nandroid backups back, most of the time I had to do it twice, since data partition could not be mounted... 2nd try always worked and that was only for this specific phone. I simply guess the flash memory is corrupt... :(
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sugartibbs:
We've seen some of this.. what rom was she on that fc'd and what rewrite odin files are you flashing? Are you familiar with the encryption Bug?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EdWood110:
She was using the Passion Rom, v13.1 with Touchkernel 8.2 and the data.fix.

The phone had this problem like 3 times already. It simply shuts down, when you turn it back on, bootloop. Only thing that helped was playing a nandroid backup back. When doing this, nandroid already had problems mounting the data partition, so I had to flash it twice to go through.

This time, the 3rd time, the phone told me about a failed data encryption... this time, no nandroid backup is working, due to failing data partition.

When I Odin back to Elcair, I use the PIT file that comes with the AIO Toolbox and the Elcair Rom for Odin. I set the phone into download mode, Odin gets a connection to my phone. Then i select the PIT and PDA files, enable re-partition,autoreboot and F.reset time. I flash, everything works fine, Odin is done, the phone reboots, but then I get the red error message telling me that formatting the data partition did not work.

I did read about that ICS bug and about the workaround, but this kinda only works if you still have a working phone? Or did I get something wrong?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toast6977:
Yep. Sounds like EU bug. You'll find lots of info on that and things to try to get around it.

I'd go to Google and type in: XDA Samsung Vibrant encryption Unsuccessful and see what it brings up.

Hi Mark,

First of all congrats on the game, well done, the animation is really smooth and detailed.

Did you consider switching to the free-to-play model? This usually works much better on Android.

One comment, I'm not sure, maybe it's only me, but the back button doesn't respond as it should be, ie. I would expect it to bring me back to the main menu while playing.

Cheers,

Tom

Hi Tom,

Okay,

I just pushed an update to Google Play - It now allows you to retest network connectivity at the Game Over screen so you can submit those awesome scores should your network have timed out during play or if it wasn't connected in the first place before playing... Now you have no excuse not to get the highest score and post it ;)

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] r3v3rb:
Okay, just pushed a small update that adds Right-Shift button for thrust to the Xperia Play controls and also some small IAP to allow you to start the game with certain abilities...

IAP are purely optional and will not hinder your ability to play. I have separated the High Scores so those playing with IAP do not skew the leaderboards for those without the extra options you can also turn on and off the IAP purchases from within the options screen if wish to play on a level playing field again...

Once I get a few more downloads I'll be looking to add more features... One of my wishes is adding multi-player but I have only just started with network code so it may amount to nothing yet... Plus I have the hurdle of only having Unity Basic licenses for Android so no access to sockets for use with photon servers... So it may end up being only local multi-player initially
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] msavic6:
That is a developer option for a reason. It leads to instability in some apps and benefits in others. The majority of the apps, it leads to instability.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] simms22:
not true. it does force some apps to use hardware acceleration instead of software acceleration, but it does not lead to instability. it will make ui animations and scrolling smoother overall.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] coldrazor:
And less batery, no?

Enviado desde mi Galaxy Nexus usando Tapatalk 2
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] simms22:
in theory. but it might be too small a difference really.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] svtfmook:
yeah, you're either consuming processor power to run the software, or using the power to run the gpu
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] msavic6:
But apps that are smooth without the option ticked ( twitter for example ) become laggy after enabling the option. This is what I meant by *instability*
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jordanishere:
Two other people aside from me have android phones on ICS or JB in my office. Last week we all agreed to enable force 2d rendering.

Nobody is complaining about upset apps, and everyone complains less about their battery life (esp my friend with an evo 3d, worst BL ever on that device). My results aren't very scientific, especially with regard to battery life, but we def haven't experienced any app related issues.

Also miui has smoother animations on the lock screen and in other parts of the ROM. V4 Lock screen was choppy before, but now is very smooth.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] msavic6:
My experience with the option on has been a negative one. It all depends on the apps you have installed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tgyberg:
The SiriusXM app locks the F up and freezes the entire phone for me. No 2D for this kid!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dannejanne:
Never encountered a problem with an app with that option enabled. Always had it enabled. Then again I am not an app person so I do not use many apps at all. Some of the apps I have the option definitely helps with the smoothness in scrolling. WhatsApp is one of them I believe.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
That is misleading. It can lead to instability in apps. The fact that you cannot choose the option for each app...that leads to general instability across the board.

Unless you don't use your phone for apps.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
Not all apps perform better forcing acceleration.

Google made that abundantly clear with Project Butter in JB. They use acceleration from both GPU and CPU. Forcing acceleration removes CPU acceleration for the app as well.

That said, some of it is placebo too. Obviously most apps are closed source, but I wonder how many people are calling forced acceleration faster on apps, that have already been compiled with GPU acceleration to be used? Its literally just a checkbox to enable when building.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] madphone:
Try flipboard with and without GPU. Open a link within the app and you will see a huge difference.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] leungclj:
i remember when i was still on ICS, i enable this option, and all game were really noticeably ran smoother, but not anymore now on JB, may be now i have overclocked GPU
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
Flipboard works perfectly smooth with me not touching the Developer options. Probably because it was compiled with acceleration enabled.

Never underestimate the power of placebo. People will defend it with their dying breath.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] norpan111:
The apps meant to be accelerated is, those who aren't I believe doesn't benefit from the option... It just makes the app working in ways it wasn't built for

Its just my thoughts.. No facts

Skickat från min Galaxy Nexus via Tapatalk 2
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
You are 100% correct. The instability issues crop up because how the app was coded does not work properly with acceleration. This obviously isn't all apps, but certainly is some. I *think* the reasoning that not all apps are accelerated is for backwards compatibility. That, or the app simply runs better with the CPU pushing it and not the GPU. Google employees have posted in the past that some things simply work better with the CPU.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aeoveu:
There are cases where it does make the app more smooth and all - but there's a caveat: some apps may break. For instance, the news and weather widget - tap the temperature scale and you're supposed to get a precipitation reading... that glitches out.

And for that, I turned it off cause I don't know what other apps get affected by it. Personally, I DO notice a difference in the app's performance.

On jelly bean, btw...despite project butter doing its "thang".
