[Shield Q&A] hurrpancakes:
I spent a bit of time running the 3Dmark benchmark. I turned off my Shield, turned it on, went to the play store to install the 3DMark app, and ran it 6 times. My average score of those 6 runs was 19620, with scores ranging from 19554 to 19752.

Then I closed the Shield, putting it in sleep mode, and kept it asleep for 2 or 3 minutes. I opened it up, and ran the benchmark 5 more times. The first 4 times, my scores ranged from 11198 to 8939. I noticed that the fan was spinning much louder during these 4 benchmarks than the 6 previous runs before I put it to sleep. After these 4, I waited about 4 minutes after running the benchmark again, without rebooting or putting it to sleep, and got a score of 19124 (which is just over a 2% decrease from the lowest number on the first 5 runs, so I don't think it's being throttled on this run).

So I think there is some kind of throttling going on, but I'm not much of a processor engineer. All the runs I made I would run the benchmark again about 20 seconds after it would complete (save for when I paused to put the Shield to sleep, and the 4 minutes between the 10th and 11th runs)
[Shield Q&A] JKmike07:
Thank you for such detailed results. I will be trying out the 4 minute wait at some point today to see if I can get similar results.
[Shield Q&A] Gnurou:
Interesting. I'll check and report a bug if I can confirm, unless one of you guys did it already?
[Shield Q&A] hurrpancakes:
I haven't reported anything, so feel free to do so
[Shield Q&A] agrabren:
I encountered something similar. Mine was sleeping, picked it up, and it was fairly hot. It wouldn't resume, so I finally had to hold the power button until it force powered off.
[Shield Q&A] skygunner27:
I also have seen this drop in performance resuming from sleep....

I've never seen this happen after resuming from sleep until I mounted a Sandisk 64GB Class 10 Micro SD. My benchmarks scores are being cut in half. 4 minutes of waiting does nothing for my SHIELD. So far only a reset brings it back to normal.
[Shield Q&A] skygunner27:
After about 10 minutes of active use, it goes back to normal.....weird.
[Shield Q&A] JKmike07:
I can say for sure that I have not put a SD card in my Shield yet. So I'm not sure if that would be a trigger or not.

I tried letting mine sit for about 5 minutes for the first time then 10 minutes for the second time. When I'm just letting the system idle but not sleeping it won't go back to normal. However as others have pointed out it seems like its only certain apps and 3d engines that can get it out of the de-tuned mode it gets stuck in. Sometimes an app will turn on the GPU or the CPU it's not always both that revive.

I'm really hoping its just a software fix since I really like the Shield.
[Shield Q&A] agrabren:
Being a sleep issue, it's almost certain it can be fixed in software, since software is responsible for restarting most things after sleep.
[Shield Q&A] skygunner27:
That's good to know. Once you notice it, it's hella annoying. What do we need to do to elevate this?
[Shield Q&A] JKmike07:
[MENTION=3869474]agrabren[/MENTION] can you advise if nvidia knows about this issue and if they are attempting to fix it?

If not I understand but I figure it wouldn't hurt to ask you.

Thank you for any information you can provide.
[Shield Q&A] Gnurou:
Just to mention this issue has been reported internally. Will update once we have progress on this.
[Shield Q&A] cgutman:
I had a similar experience a couple of times when I first got it.
[Shield Q&A] rushless:
I will hold off getting one of these until this has been resolved. One of the advanatges of poking out my little head, twenty fathoms below sea level from bunker. :)
[Shield Q&A] JKmike07:
Your name is very fitting. :) For me it was either buy it or my wife would have spent my birthday cash on something else lol.

Update 51 and the issue is still present. I was hopeful that it might have been a ninja fix.
[Shield Q&A] hurrpancakes:
Update 51 is just for audio. According to a post on the Nvidia forums, they have identified the cause and are working on the sleep issue
[Shield Q&A] 1wayjonny:
Oh so you get the socks, underwear, belts and shoes too? =(

Good choice, I try to tell her I wanted Sennhesier cans and somehow after 4 months of dropping hints.... I get more shoes.... for work

This time I asked for a return on the gift, BTW the headphones are amazing and I do not feel bad.
[Shield Q&A] PR0XIDIAN:
So, not exactly a benchmark, but my shield runs GTA lll perfectly when first turned on. Then lags after sleep. Luckily this is an easy fix. Either custom roms, a patch from nvidia, or I can just restart the shield before playing with it. Either way it shouldn't be too big of a deal.
[Shield Q&A] rushless:
That is some serious throttle down talking place, since GTA plays smooth on much slower dual cores like the 4430.
[Shield Q&A] JKmike07:
That about sounds right. Every now and then I get away with purchasing something fun like the Shield. But our fist child will be here within 2 weeks so I think the Shield might have been the last thing I get away with lol.

The more games that come out that actually use the cpu/gpu the more this will pop up.

This is my first Android device so I have been learning a lot trying to figure this stuff out. When it does throttle down I think sometimes it even gets stuck in single CPU mode. The reason why I say this is because a few times I have gotten the CPUs to all register 1.9ghz in CPUID and during the AnTuTu benchmark it never got above 50% CPU usage even though it normally loads the CPU to 100%.

The reason why I think it was stuck on single CPU is because I read something that said it will only clock 1912 on 1 core and starts going down as more cores are used until about 1.5ghz with all 4 active.

I really don't know why this is not a bigger deal than it is. I feel like a few others and I are the only ones actually upset about this. I cant help but think that maybe the Hawken port is being delayed because of this. I can only imagine that game would run like crap when its stuck in the throttled down mode.

I will keep my figures crossed that this is a quick and simple fix. I trust Nvidia and have faith they will resolve this and make it right.

P.S. My other handle is MiDe84. That was it is on the Nvidia forums.
[Shield Q&A] skygunner27:
Lame..........................this is a big deal/inconvience.

I really hope Nvidia is close to providing an OTA update resolving this problem. It is hella annoying having to wait out the throttle or restart the SHIELD everytime I want to run Riptide GP 2 or The Conduit at it's best.
[Shield Q&A] miguelvp:
Can't post links yet but Unity engine games and live wallpapers prevents the issue from happening.

I use the "Andromeda Free Live Wallpaper" that uses the Unity engine.

SkyCastle3D Unity demo brings it up too, but once it only woke up the GPU but not the CPU.
[Shield Q&A] suppertime:
My experience

CPU-Z told me that the processor was being utilized around 50-60 percent, no matter if I had just booted up the shield or if it came out of sleep mode. So, I unlocked the bootloader, rooted it, and installed a CPU control tool. I set the max and min CPU speed all the way up to 1.9 and voila, everything ran like butter. I saw night and day differences in games like Riptide 2, Asphalt 8, and even PPSSPP.
[Shield Q&A] rushless:
There seems no practical excuse for the sleep and throttle issues at launch and zero excuse not to have an update now to fix the issues. Rubes like me will wait to see if fixed before buying.
[Shield Q&A] skygunner27:
I agree.

It's ridiculous that this throttling issue wasn't discovered during beta testing and here we are today without a fix. I am one of the few android user's that likes to leave the OS stock(current) from the manufacturer.....but if Nvidia can't fix what they have started I might have to make an exception.
[Shield Q&A] georaldc:
I find it more amazing how the dpad issues slid right past their QA department.

So right now, the only fix is to use a unity powered wallpaper? How about other live wallpapers like Blue Skies (I just like this one personally)?
[Shield Q&A] skygunner27:
I have only used the live Mass Effect 3(Tegra) wallpaper & live Hawken wallpaper and not seen a difference.
[Shield Q&A] rushless:
A live wallpaper is hit and miss, since depends on what resources the wallpaper uses. They are functionally like apps to the system. Seems an inefficient workaround and not a fix by any stretch. Sleep and throttle needs fixed, post haste.
[Shield Q&A] georaldc:
The free andromeda wallpaper sometimes doesn't even work for me (it doesn't load properly or at all, falling back to the default wallpaper).

I have another issue where the Shield sometimes freezes. This usually happens when I wake it up from sleep and pull down the notification bar using the virtual mouse (I guess it doesn't matter if you use the touchscreen). The shield becomes unresponsive and sometimes buffers all my actions and executes everything after a few seconds. Is this related to the sleep issue?
[Shield Q&A] rushless:
Toshiba tablets are having issues too, so could be a chipset issue, or poor bad firmware distributed with the chiosets. Sucky kernel settings perhaps.
[Shield Q&A] Gnurou:
I noticed this issue too and your message finally made me look at it. This seems to have been fixed in our codebase, so it should roll with one of the next OTAs.
[Shield Q&A] blinkdragonid:
Ive never had a sleep performance issue until i got my second RMA shield today. cpuz shows 1.9 but i get the freezing thing where the controller doesnt work but touch screen does.
[Shield Q&A] georaldc:
Sweet. Will the sleep issue be addressed too?
[Shield Q&A] Gnurou:
I don't have specific information about this (and actually don't remember having this issue myself) but since that's the issue people are the most vocal about I guess it is being taken care of. ;)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] darkfangex5:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f-y43Kevhww i recorded it with an s3 so excuse the meh quality. but do enjoy my htc one running Heart gold :) kept it short, simple and to the point. Also in the video is the emulator running over MHL :D. this new emulator is on the playstore (DraStic or just google "playstore drastic")for 8$ (ouch) but its so worth it and comes with fast forward (2x speed yeah its that efficient.) the explanation was everyone beforehand with old emulators just tried to port windows in a poor manner which ended up with poor results. But I digress sorry for the illiteracy as i am typing away merrily trying to multitask. enjoy :)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] victorneg:
Have you tried RetroArch? I haven't tried the DS emulator, but i got the PSX emulator working and it runs pretty well. Plus it's free.

edit: Scratch that. I didn't know DraStic was a closed-source project and not based on DeSmuME like everything else. Been reading good things about this emulator. If I didn't still have my old ds, i'd plunge 8 bucks for it.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] darkfangex5:
Yeah, being closed source is a slight downside, but the exchange is all the DS emulators except drastic are ports from windows causing them to suck. This emulator is not ported and runs well like ppsspp a psp emulator

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dsEVOlve:
Has anyone been able to get live TV to work using the Time Warner cable app, or any modded version or with any other mods (e.g. build.prop edits) for the past few months on a rooted Galaxy Tab 10.1? I've tried on CM10 and CM10.1 but it crashes immediately after loading the live TV function.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] levman:
It works for me. I vaguely recall having to do something funky to make it work, maybe installing an older version of the TWC app, but it was 6 months ago so I don't exactly remember what I did. I think the solution I found was described in the CM10.1 nightly thread, try searching there.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dsEVOlve:
Thanks. Unfortunately a search of time Warner and twc didn't get me anythung in the entire GT10.1 forum. Can you tell me the version of the TWC app you're using that works?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] levman:
My Galaxy Tab 10.1 is running V2.6#36 of the TWC app. I believe the most current version is V3.3.1#57 (at least, that is what's running on my phone).

I've been doing some googling, and I'm starting to remember more details. I believe that the issue was not with CM10.1 per se, it was with running TWC TV on a rooted device. This link has the APK that I think I used? The whole thread is worth reviewing, but from what I remember, all I did was install the APK I found and it worked without any other modifications.

Hi, I recently got TWC and discovered this app. I am with Sprint however, and I am displeased that Verizon users get extra benefits. Maybe this has been explored but has anyone done any more work on this app? Is there anyway to "trick" the app into believing we are Verizon customers or better yet, that I am on my home network so I have unlimited use of the app?? Just asking.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mimiaow:
No sound since update?

I have just purchased the Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 On Sunday, I got the TWC app and everything worked fine. On Monday night, the app updated and since then no sound.

I tried d/l the previous version of the app referenced in this thread, but when I try to open it, it won't unless I upgrade. I don't want to!

Any ideas how to get the sound to work?

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Hyper4mance2k:
So my new 16gb 7-2 started the random resets on Saturday. It's 100% stock. I never enabled USB debugging, and I went to turn it on today and it won't boot. I get stuck on the boot animation. I can get it to boot into recovery. I tried a cache wipe, but it still won't boot. I want to copy my pics off the tablet before I attempt a factory reset. If I have to reset this thing w/o getting my pix, I will be losing about a years worth of pics I transferred from my old N7 before I wiped that device. :( Is there any way to connect to the device, or am I screwed since I never enabled USB debugging?

Ive been searching for answers to this for more than 4 hours before I posted.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Username invalid:
Factory reset wipes the cache, dalvik cache and userdata returning your ROM to stock. It does not wipe the internal storage where your pictures are.

Use a file explorer program. You can still possibly recover them as long as you have not overwritten the data.

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] ejdmoo:
Perhaps this should find its place in the wiki?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] TheLastOne:
This is made obsolete by the new series of 1.40 roms. Soon enough, Cingular will have their version too.

Instructions to update to 1.33.10 are already on wiki, as they are the same instructions as all the other ones. So are instructions to upgrade your bluetooth to 1.0.0.3900 (also made obsolete by the 1.40 series).

Not to mention that there is a 1.13 radio rom, which is superior to the 1.12 rom, seemingly.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] Loomis:
I actually noticed all of that, yet I found very few posts to actually recommend those versions and fewer still that actually detail how to find all of the right files and upgrade the SX66 specifically. This is especially true of the SX66 AT&T variant which can not be upgraded with the Siemens' upgrade package. It took me a very long time to find all of this information and get it to work right based on scattered postings - I'm just trying to save brother SX66 owners a little time and frustration and would argue that this post is actually valid until obsoleted by an official Cingular update package (which undoubtedly will not work on the AT&T variant.....)
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] TheLastOne:
I'll give you that. I was just refuting ejdmoo's post more than anything.

I have a seimens sx-66 and none of these methods worked. They all either gave me the country id error or they froze and left me with no radio.

What i ended up having to do was download the official ssiemens version for the PH20B1 near the bottom of this page.

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_Upgrades

and then add [CHECKCEID_TYPE]=1 to the ruu.conf as described in this page . And was FINALLY able to even upgrade to the official siemens rom that i'm supposed to have no problem with.

this is what i started out with

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sjpritch25:
I don't know about everyone else, but i think this phone has one of the best developers, themes, & modders. I've been running the latest unofficial CM10.2 & it just reminded me of the 4.2.2 builds that preludedrew did back in my Inc2 days.

Shout out to all of our developers
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SovietKommando:
I agree. This phone does seem to have a great community. I certainly haven't had any shortage of a selection for roms, and when roms have bugs they are typically fixed within a few days. The Fascinate also was blessed with a pretty great community, back when I had that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Div033:
Could be that I'm just being nostalgic but I really miss the days of my old Incredible. What a huge dev community. Of course it helped that the Evo 4G's community was huge and they had essentially the same phone, but it was a great environment to get involved with Android.

CM7 was rock solid stable, there was a large assortment of different ROM types available like Sense 1.0, 2.1, 3.0, 3.5 and 2.1/3.0 hybrids. It was a great playground for a budding flashaholic.

The GS3 community has been equally as large but doesn't have the ROM variety the Inc had. Essentially on this phone your choices are Touchwiz Nature UX, CM and MIUI. All the TW ROMs are largely the same aside from theming and tweaks. Can't blame the developers for this, as Samsung made it too difficult to backport the newer versions of TouchWiz (and who'd want to anyway?).

I will say that despite these limitations we do have a plethora of choices and it continues to grow month after month.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] PsiPhiDan:
I understand, because I had the EVO 4G,which to me was the ultimate development phone. We had ports of everything, and it got overwhelming!

But hey... We have sense 5 on this phone now! I don't remember getting TW on my EVO 4G! :thumbup:
