You're probably correct, but I have noticed this result using more than one link on xda-developers, in fact there were quite a few. Also, I have used many links before, even ones that now guide me to this page. It makes me think that 1) I have something wrong w/my PC or 2) the site has been compromised (HIGHL UNLIKELY).

[Windows 8 General] Speakershock:
Hello everybody,

I got myself a copy of Windows 8 pro through my school, and i installed it on my netbook. It's an Asus eeePc 1201HA. Installation went pretty smooth, and i love the fact it became faster with Windows 8 instead of 7.

But,

Everytime i turn on the pc and i go to the desktop modus, there is this error: ACPI Driver missing.

I have tried everyting so far, installed windows 7 driver, XP drivers, updated my bios to the latest version (fount a thread online saying this would solve the error). But I have had no luck so far.

Maybe the community can help me run windows 8 on my eeepc, without the error. :angel:
[Windows 8 General] dazza9075:
Its not ideal, but go to your BIOS n turn off ACPI 1/2, APM isn't as good bit it is functional an may patch up your problem foe the Time being
[Windows 8 General] Speakershock:
There is no option to turn off Acpi.
[Windows 8 General] dazza9075:
Good old OEM BIOSs! google your device for hidden BIOS menus sometimes pushing a series of buttons like alt F4 gives you more options
[Windows 8 General] Speakershock:
Nothing. I have searched the web. I am currently on an ami v02.61 bios. The option to turn acpi should be under the power tab. I don't have one thanks to Asus. I have tried every combo I could find. And mashed on a couple of others I could think of.

Damn netbook has been the worst purchase ever. :(

Hi,

i bought a HTC Desire from a friend, installed an ICS mod, and now it got stuck in a bootloop after Google play app updated itself to 3.5.16.

My friend has the same ROM, and he reports no issues.

What could be the cause of this? Thanx.

EDIT: I forgot to add why i mentioned i bought the phone from a friend: That means i have no clue how he rooted it. There's an AlphaRev S-OFF, but i cannot find any version info.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kuljit55:
Hello guys, i wanted some advice.

Since i have rooted and installed the Siyah Kernal, i am experiencing random crashes where apps stop working and the screen goes black for a minute and everything reloads again like as the phone has been restarted.

I was reading one some posts and one of the contributors suggested the following:

- Boot to CWM recovery

- wipe cache partition

- wipe dalvik cache (under advanced)

- reboot phone

I wanted to confirm, if this method would be good for me to sort these crashes i am getting? If not then any other suggestions?

Also wiping these areas, does it delete any user data or apps in the process?

I suppose it is safe to do wipe actions if i have the siyaah kernal on stock ics 4.0.4?

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brnbock:
Do all of the above and fix permissions.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kuljit55:
When you say fix permissions, how do i do that? is that a command in recovery? also will these actions delete any user data, settings or apps? thanks
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Immortalis:
Fix permissions is found in CWM > Advanced; it doesn't affect user data.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saywhatt:
- Boot to CWM recovery

- wipe cache partition

- wipe dalvik cache (under advanced)

- fix permissions (under advanced)

- reboot system now

if that doesn't fix the problem then try another kernel :P
[Atrix 4G General] jjwatmyself:
There are lots of us that use the HDMI port on the Atrix... Heck... Motorola built it right.

HDMI mirroring has been high on everyone's list that uses the HDMI port and then there are some of the heavier users that go as far as flip their device into Tablet UI with some methods that are not NOOB-proof.

Webtop 3 however, is noob proof. You connect and Robert is suddenly your Uncle. So how do we address this need on the Atrix? Webtop 3 is certainly a good candidate. What phones have Webtop 3 fully implemented as stock or based on work by devs?

This thread is a place to contribute.

Items on the table for discussion:

- Webtop 3 on HDMI

- Webtop 3 on HD Dock

- Webtop 3 on Lapdock

Please do not post general comments like "I tested and it works". Please provide the specific ROM name and release and scenario if you have a success to report that will assist in steering this discussion towards solutions.

Please do not post comments regarding failed attempts, unless you have a constructive angle on what you are doing to fix it.
[Atrix 4G General] aaron.a:
so, we currently have webtop 3 on hdmi. i tested it in icsrom and it works fine. someone in that thread mentioned refresh rates and such being a possible reason for the lapdock screen issues.

i would assume that as battery life and handset screen issues get resolved webtop will fall in there some where. but that's a pretty big assumption

but yeah it works.. implying a media dock + hd tv in the bedroom = netflix box
[Atrix 4G General] jjwatmyself:
Supported Resolutions no the Atrix 4G Running ICSROM 1.4 [Moto leak mod]

Here is a list of resolutions that ICSROM 1.4 supports:

Auto
720x480 - 60Hz
1280x720 - 60Hz
720x576 - 50Hz
1280x720 - 50Hz
640x480 - 60Hz
1920x1080 - 60Hz
1920x1080 - 50Hz
800x600 - 60Hz
1024x1024 - 60Hz
1440x900 - 60Hz
1680x1050 - 60Hz
1366x768 - 60Hz <-- Motorola Atrix 4G Lapdock
640x480 - 60Hz

Method: while using HDMI, go to System Settings, Display, uncheck HDMI Connection. The HDMI will turn off, and the Resolution will become selectable. click to reveal the complete list.

Using this method also enables you to select a persistent HDMI resolution, e.g. 1366x768 - 60Hz, but upon selecting and re-enabling HDMI, the lapdock display is the same mess.

Conclusion: The resolution is supported, but the HDMI is not coming up. The next test needs to include removing dock service components to circumvent the webtop launch and find a method that will launch webtop manually.
[Atrix 4G General] jjwatmyself:
After seeing the Webtop entitlement check fail (wifi off) that allows Wetop to run while connected via cellular data, I renamed /system/app/WebtopEntitlementService.apk and rebooted. Thus far, Webtop 3 has not exited, while on Cellular data.

Next, I have renamed all apk files (except DockStatus.apk) with the word "dock" in them. This shows that upon docking, there is no triggering automated dock features. Connecting to the HD dock, the Atrix simply enters HDMI mirror mode. However, connecting to the lapdock still launches Webtop. This tells me that Webtop is not launched by apps that have the word "dock" in them.
[Atrix 4G General] jjwatmyself:
Webtop disabled

Clean install of ICSROM v1.4 (with GoogleNow Standalone V1.3) to test from clean baseline.

I renamed /system/app/PortalApp.apk (rebooted) and Webtop no longer launches when connected to the Lapdock. Consider Webtop 3 disabled with this file rename.

Interestingly, the HDMI resolution is still borked!! LOL is all I can say to that.

Then renamed all the following under /system/app:

DockComm.apk

DockService.apk

MotoDockHelperService.apk

SmartCarDock.apk

SmartDock.apk

For the first time I am getting info in the fields from the Dock Satus app when on the lapdock shown below:
[Atrix 4G General] jjwatmyself:
Build.prop

I edited build.prop and changed DPI from 240 to 120. I found that tablet UI did not launch, however, the Webtop default wallpaper and home screen shortcuts were present. This is interesting as shows that the Webtop home screen is storing config based on the Android DPI.

DPI of 110 and 100 also is not tablet UI.

I also tested flipping the hdmi mirror flag from false to true, which did nothing for the results with lapdock tests.

I than commented the 3 hdmi lines out of the build.prop (mirror, default app, overlay) and no changes from that either.

I think there steps needed in order to completely disable Webtop and get normal HDMI mirror to function on the lapdock. From here we can then try to figure out how to re-implement Webtop.
[Atrix 4G General] jjwatmyself:
I did another test to try and figure out the lapdock issue. I unscrewed all the connectors, so that I could connect only the HDMI. Yup, the display, trackpad and keyboard all power up and power on (I was only expecting the display) and the same issue occurs. This tells me that the hdmi port on the Atrix has some proprietary functionality, and has USB pin outs that are used for the trackpad, keyboard and USB replicator ports. The only feature that did not prevail on the HDMI was charging... this makes me think that the Micro USB on the lapdock is used for charging and analog audio out. I would assume that the HD dock is the same, and therefore only difference would be the supported resolutions of the display.

So we are back to this possibly being a supported resolution issue, despite the supported resolution appearing on the list posted above. So, where do these files / libraries live?
[Atrix 4G General] BigJeff:
This is the last piece for me, before having ICS be a daily driver. I was also thinking it isn't just a simple HDMI out and that it's got proprietary drivers/libs that we may not even have. Keep up the good work! :)
[Atrix 4G General] Rhadamg:
My suggestion:

Someone who has the multimedia dock plugs the HDMI cable to a monitor or tv with the same resolution (or ajdustable) as the lapdock (1366x768 - 60Hz) and then connect the Atrix to the dock. Just to see what happens.
[Atrix 4G General] jjwatmyself:
I think you mean the HD dock.

Finding a screen with that resolution would be difficult. I could do another test with a male to female cable from the HD dock to the lapdock. A friend may already have a cable that I can test that with. This test would put known working hardware between the Atrix and the lapdock.
[Atrix 4G General] SanderVisions:
Supporting your research, keep the good work! Im interesting to see the results of this, maybe consider buying a lapdock if you find out a way.
[Atrix 4G General] Rhadamg:
Yes, HD Dock. I think is worth to check. :fingers-crossed:

Do you mean you did the test that I described with a female to male cable and it failed?
[Atrix 4G General] sipart:
Probably of little use but a screen grab of phone screen while in lapdock showing res option greyed out.
[Atrix 4G General] Bert.C:
If you disable the shrink to fit screen option, can you select resolution then?
[Atrix 4G General] Lokifish Marz:
You might want to look into the following;

approach this as a build from source linux desktop install issue

check scan/sync rates (working vs not working) displays have different rates and if it's not right you get results like you are seeing

extended display identification data (EDID). Compare the EDID from a working vs not working
[Atrix 4G General] NFHimself:
Thoughts:

1. Connect to adb in network mode as you connect / reconnect the lapdock.

2. adb logcat

3. write an app that detects screen on or some other global event and see if there is a resolution passed to it or use adb shell to launch intents for some apps. What is the resolution being passed to the lapdock?

Cheers!
[Atrix 4G General] sheennick123456:
I connected the Atrix to my TV via HDMI

the webtop runs fine at native resolution of my TV 1920x1080 @50Hz

now i can change the resolution in my tv and i have attached the screenshot of available resolutions

i can change resolutions in settings

1920x1080 gives tablet mode

lowering the resolution to something like 640x480 simply mirrors the display on TV

now the point to note is if i switch to resolutions not supported by TV the output is borked just like you get on a lapdock

AND most importantly the lapdock resolution (1366×768) is not in the list available resolutions

so it simply points to the resolution not being supported and that is why we have scrambled output on lapdock rest webtop functionality is flawless
[Atrix 4G General] inaudibly:
Couldn't we use the ICS webtop files from the atrix 2 or droid Razr ? They both support 1366×768 so maybe it will work but not too sure
[Atrix 4G General] sipart:
That's different to post #3?
[Atrix 4G General] sipart:
No if I disable "Shrink to Fit" then attach the Atrix to the lapdock it is automatically re-enabled (doing another screenshot confirms this) - which is interesting in its own right.

Would it be possible to force the Atrix into a mode where it would work on the lapdock with a DPI changer (but this is not flexible and I'm not sure if it can go this low without making it useless and needing a re-flash)?

You can see on the Atrix screen that plugging it into the Lapdock changes the DPI before it switches to the Lapdock screen/HDMI and blanks the screen on the phone - I am assuming that whatever DPI it is changing it to is wrong (perhaps they developed the ROM with HD dock first and never got around to sorting the Lapdock functionality).

http://members.ping.de/~sven/dpi.html

Atrix

Horizontal resolution: 540 pixels

Vertical resolution: 960 pixels

Diagonal: 4.0 inches (10.16cm)

Display size: 3.49" × 1.96" (8.86cm × 4.98cm) = 275.36 PPI, 0.0922mm dot pitch, 75825 PPI²

Lapdock

Horizontal resolution: 1366 pixels

Vertical resolution: 768 pixels

Diagonal: 11.6 inches (29.46cm)

Display size: 10.11" × 5.68" (25.68cm × 14.44cm) = 135.09 PPI, 0.188mm dot pitch, 18250 PPI²

Could Droid bionic ROM devs provide any insight as the bionic ICS roms from Moto work with the lapdock?
[Atrix 4G General] krystianp:
I've tested today ATRIX over hdmi (no dock) on tv with native 1366×768. ATRIX automatically switched to 1280×720p and as previously mentioned there was no 1366 res on the list. Testing different resolutions I found that any res@50Hz gave mess, all res@60Hz were fine. I tried to look for definitions of resolutions in icsrom but couldn't find anything relevant,only some stuff in libhdmi.so(I was hoping for some config file like in x.org).
[Atrix 4G General] Lokifish Marz:
Between post 18 and 19 it should get at least in the ballpark of where you need to be to fix it.

Thanks NFHimself, I completely forgot about that part of it, my new project has my brain elsewhere. If you and other devs help with this it would be great as my time is really limited. I'll help out as time permits.
[Atrix 4G General] aaron.a:
Yeah? Gotta be a config file somewhere with default refresh rates. I hope. A lot. =) don't bother testing if lapdock is forcing 50. Just try to force 60. Not sure how myself

[Atrix 4G General] jjwatmyself:
Wow, I can't thank all of you enough for the contributions to the research on this... Based on what I understand about DPI... yes, there is the formula to calculate the real DPI of a display. However, DPI is used in order to optimize display layout attributes and is not used to configure display resolution. So I would not worry at all about DPI configuration parameters (done in /data/local.prop and/or /system/build.prop). There are some great points regarding understand the files (libraries?) where supported resolutions are established. It seems that 50 Hz vs 60 Hz is an important puzzle piece that is currently missing and despite the native resolution of the lapdock display, what does it operate at? A test to evidence this on the lapdock would be using a male to female connector from another device, e.g. Atrix 2, Atrix HD, any HDMI device really and then inspect the resolution info using the dock info app or whatever tool provides that info. Also, connecting some other HDMI source.... that provides screen resolution info and link state info e.g. a Windows 7 PC with an HDMI out. With a male to female connector, these additional tests can be done to help build the full profile of the lapdock. Native resolution we already know, but does it perform emulation and image scaling to some other X Y values...? A good example of this is a 1050 horizontal line display will often have 1080p support, because the display device has built in logic to duplicate a line every 36th line. That's just one example of how to achieve an emulated resolution based on functionality that is baked into the display device. Enough said. The bottom line is that the data we gather must come from a device that correctly establishes a perfect image on the lapdock display, which means we have a correctly negotiated link with correct resolution. For anyone that has some of the hardware needed to perform one or more of these test, this info would help.
[Atrix 4G General] jjwatmyself:
Please confirm if the lapdock screen shot was a screen shot of a borked screen on the Atrix or if it was a perfect screen for another device connected to the Atrix lapdock. If the later, then this tells us that the lapdock display is operating at 720p right?
[Atrix 4G General] sipart:
Apologies in my haste I forgot to provide useful notes! Updated my post.

I have a android tab that is rooted and modded with hdmi out so just ordered (Your estimated delivery date is:

May be a long shot but will it be compiled in with the moto dock apk? Listed in array.xml maybe? Worth a shot. Ill reload ics on to my phone tonight and see what i can find.

[Atrix 4G General] sheennick123456:
yes atleast that is the way it showed up for me..
[Atrix 4G General] yuric:
I can confirm that. When I plugged my Atrix directly to TV, the 1366x768 resolution isn't there, but when I plugged it to my lapdock this resolution is on the list. To be able to see that (since the lapdock display is borked), I started the Dock Status app, then plugged the Atrix to lapdock, then disabled the HDMI connection.

Cheers....
[Atrix 4G General] jjwatmyself:
I think that the contents of the list are derived from the hdmi link negotiation. Also, by messing with connection states we are able to expose a glitch and see the whole list. Ref post #2.

Maybe force choosing the resolution manually is an approach to solve the problem.

No if you disable "Shrink to Fit" then attach the Atrix to the lapdock it is automatically re-enabled (doing a screenshot confirms this).
[Atrix 4G General] krystianp:
I made two changes in code. One resulting in ability to change to any mode but it didn't help. But lapdock was recognised as before so i thought that maybe i should work with it, because lapdock has only few predefined/available resolutions (only five). So then i started again and i managed to partially disable lapdock recognition, but it only allowed me to pick from those predefined resolutions, as there was still some info lapdock send from portalservicejni to portalservice (class from portalapp.apk which is responsible for managing our messed lapdock screen). That is all i know for now. Do you know any free or good arm disassemblers?
