Hi Michael

If you want to be able to type traditional Chinese using ZhuYin, you can download Swype beta. From their website

I'm using PinYin cuz that's how I learnt how to type.

You can use hand writing as well.

if you mean the 3D freezes:

Rest assured it still freezes up! Also you may notice that this topic gets ignored completely by now... not only the topic, but also any posts about it, as you can see... every little problem is answered (even stuff that has been posted a gazillion times AND it's clear that the poster didn't even do his basic homework in reading up before doing anything) but this gets ignored COMPLETELY

I know, it's a "known bug" and seemingly it only affects a handful of users and it deems to be hard to debug but even my repeated offering in helping debug this (as I have a phone that does this) got ignored...

Everyone flames Samsung for not releasing proper source codes in time and that they don't care about those customers who need them to make proper free ROMs. Samsung doesn't care, because to them it's only a handful of users and it seems too bothersome for Samsung to commit to them.

Sad thing is: The same thing seems to apply right here in regards to the freezing issue b/c it has nothing to do with the kernel or RootBox but applies to EVERY newer Non-Sammy-ROM. So I guess it's because the Mali2 graphics driver's at fault and nobody wants to acknowledge that because it's such an uncomfortable thing to admit.

So screw you two, who suffer from 3D freezes. And screw me as well. If it wasn't for these ugly, big and seemingly mandatory toggles in Samsung ROMs I'd really give them a go by now... Not because I can't wait for a fix but because the issue seems to get ignored on purpose...

+1 on the game freezes. And I also think it's because of the new mali drivers. I don't imagine anything was wrong with the previous drivers, apart from the keyboard popup (and I'm sure everyone can live with that). I would love to test if someone would like to compile a build with the previous drivers!

Re: [ROM][4.2.2] RootBox ♦ Support ♦ Help-Index ♦ Discussion [i9100/i9100g]

I understand your disappointment, but this is not so simple that we are ignoring you and others. I invested lot of my time into this issue even if I have zero freezes normally and I installed some games only because of this.

Anyway, I gave up. I cannot help, cannot debug it and cannot tell you how to do it. Sorry.

Re: [ROM][4.2.2] RootBox ♦ Support ♦ Help-Index ♦ Discussion [i9100/i9100g]

Please, don't forget that the dev team develops and supports the ROM in the free time, just for passion.

Bajee doesn't even own a sgs2, but still keeps on supporting this model.

Making two Rom versions, with 2 different Mali drivers, will constitute already an increase in complexity. Only this single trouble it's enough IMHO to say no.

Latest RootBox - stock kernel
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kalpik:
Not asking to make 2 versions. Just revert to the old driver! There was nothing wrong with it! And if it fixed the game freezes, IMO, it's worth the effort?

Of course, the devs have all the rights to deny. This was just a request, in case they wanted to investigate the 3D freezes :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luxifr:
I'd compile it with the old Mali drivers myself if I knew how to just change exactly this in the sources... I'd even share the result if Bajee would allow that... but this change happened some while ago and I don't know where exactly it happened but that it was somewhere upstream and I don't know if the same commit maybe had other changes in it as well... also I don't know about the dependencies... but I'd be happy to give it a try if it was something like "sync the repo, apply this patch, compile" or even "look: that was the commit that changed the driver"

Comment about update + Question

Hi guys ... I've tried upgrading from 3.5 to 3.6 ... all installed properly, but couldn't connect to wifi.

(No complaints, wondered if it'll work ...didn't for me ... just commenting in case someone wondered if it's possible).

So, clean install, played around with DPI per settings, and set it to 180 for UI ... couple of reboots ... all working.

My issue is, in the android KB, if i'm long cliking "." to get to the "?", the icons to the right and left are cut.

The kb is still usable, but i find it annoying ...

I tried to change the KB resolution to 180 as well, but no luck.

Suggestions? ideas?

(Not sure why, but this build doesn't feel as smooth as the 3.5 ... might have to do with my resolution maybe?)

The current freeze pattern is from out of ram not mali. Are these stock kernel ? Cause dorimanx has removed all kernels from 9.1 up.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luxifr:
exactly... the old driver worked... so far I have not seen any advantage in the new driver... just a big, fat regression... so why not revert it until it's sorted out?

I know it might be a little complicated as it seems to be an upstream issue, but it should be possible...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kalpik:
Yes. Freeze on stock kernel (or on any kernel for that matter), on any non Samsung ROM with the new Mali driver.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luxifr:
no, it is from mali. this happens with stock kernel as well... this also happens on every other ROM that uses mali2 by now (so virtually EVERY other current, up-to-date ROM)... the kernel doesn't matter as well...

it's about certain games that make good use of the gpu... has been discussed before. doesn't happen for all 3d applications though and it doesn't seem to matter how "heavy" the graphics are... also it happens spontaneous (but still pretty quick) during the execution of said games... it didn't happen with mali1 and it doesn't happen on sammy-roms...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oriundo:
Guys, your point is valid, indeed. However, how can we "sort it out" if it is not implemented in the Rom?

I think the experimental nature of such a Rom involves some compromise.

I'm pretty sure in the future the performance of MaliV2 will match and overtake the one of MaliV1.

But to reach that, we must suffer, test, debug and tune it.

Therefore, imho if there is something that doesn't work for your needs in the current version, perhaps it is better to stay with the previous working one and wait for some improvement.

Re: [ROM][4.2.2] RootBox ♦ Support ♦ Help-Index ♦ Discussion [i9100/i9100g]

Actually, come to think of it, it makes sense. If the new mali v2 drivers pulled from s3 rom are buggy, why not ditch them and revert to v1? The high rate of battery drain during screen on is also caused by v2 drivers, I believe.. It would solve a lot of problems.. Of course I wouldn't presume to tell bajee (or any other dev) what to do.. They know their job.. Just my opinion.. :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kubics:
Guys, this discussions is really pointless. Mali V2 brought to us on this device overall better graphics experience, solved various visual glitches while normal phone usage that were relevant for most of users.

If Mali V2 solved issues and brought better graphics for all, while it brought freezing for 3D games, then be sure, that majority would never like rollback.

If you are able to build ROM with Mali V1 driver in ROM as well as kernel part, then do it.

There is only correct way for us. To go forward, no backward. And patiently wait for fix.

If you must play games, use Sammy based 4.1.2 ROMs until these issues are solved in 4.2.2 world.

Re: [ROM][4.2.2] RootBox ♦ Support ♦ Help-Index ♦ Discussion [i9100/i9100g]

The team followed the path of the official Cyanogenmod when it comes to kernels and its relateds. If that is not a part of what the latest CM kernel in its CM build, then it wont likely to be in Rootbox and subsidiaries related roms. There are other people mantaining/doing the kernel part but not on here. Which path the CM team has taken is always considered the best for daily usage and that is whats going to be in Rootbox i guess.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oriundo:
Sorry mate, but what do you mean by "things don't go well"? The rom is almost perfect and perfectly suitable for a daily usage for the majority of the users. A problem may always arise and in this case it is for a specific application and for very few users.

Therefore, who wants to use the phone with this application must either wait or use a previous working version.

Another BT/Audio dropout update :)

I've been trying a whole manner of things, lifting audio/bt related files off the CM10.1 ROM (as it works perfectly on this) sadly to no avail. :(

One thing I have noticed however, is that the dropouts do not occur if the screen is on.

So for example, if I turn on Navigation app in my car, there are no music drop-outs.

I'm going to try a few more things, but I don't hold out much hope if i'm honest.

I'm very confused about why this works perfectly on CM10.1, but not on RootBox, when RootBox is CM-based.

Can't the RB devs talk to the CM devs to try and find out how they cured the problem, or at least let us know if they intend to fix the problem?

I put my Navigation on, and no dropouts. I'll have to test this again on my way home, as admittedly I was on the CM kernel at the time.

I just done a CM10->RootBox merge blitz.

I flashed everything in the CM10.1 ROM over RootBox, except build.prop, /system/apps and /system/framework

I still got dropouts.

Unless there are some build.prop tweaks in CM10 that effects this, I believe the problem is in framework.jar, or possibly services.jar.

Both these files are understandably different between RB and CM, and there is a fair bit of bluetooth related code in them (framework.jar especially)

There's no "RB devs", it's just me. And I have 13 devices to support. I have a busy life and I'm really going out of my way to support devices I don't even own. You guys have dropout issues, d2 devices claim to have reboot issues and systemui fc, i9300 claim to have camera issues, i9100g users say their video camera is not working well, note 2 devices have bluetooth issues.. And the list goes on and on.. The dropout issues will eventually be fixed so posting again and again about it just annoys me then do any good, specially when it's directed at me as a request.

This merely started as a hobby but rootbox grew so much that I couldn't help but to put more time into it. Why am I writing all this for a simple request you made? Because you seem to have enough knowledge to understand all this compared to some other users who will simply ignore this. And let this be a warning for those repeatedly reporting the same issue.
