As I told before, SBSH PocketBreeze dislikes this setting. Anyway, I will try setting the caches to 0, but keeping the buffer size and see if it improves. Then I will proceed on halving the buffer until it does not work anymore.

EDIT:

Just to clarify, I use PocketBreeze with iLauncher, ContactBreeze and PocketWeather as tabs inside it.

Anyway, the buffers = 16 setting looked like it was working for me, but when I installed PocketBeeze it froze...

/EDIT

On the subject of benchmark fluctuation, I think the cause is the same thing which also causes video to skip, some system process might be taking up too much processing.

Since our hardware is not built for WM5, we might be suffering the same problems that the Axim/4700 users have. Do we have a filesys.exe throttler? If we don't, is there a way to do it? It would be so much easier to find the guilty process if we had a XP-style task manager, which displayed the amount of cpu time each process is taking... Anyone knows of any?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] Brazilian Joe:
About buffers

O have been playing around with buffer sizes and benchmarking.

This has been difficult because of the fluctuations.

Anyway, AFAIK buffers are used to move data around in chunks. Buffers have an optimal value, because too small buffers will make data transfer slower, especially on big data, and too big buffers take too long to fill data in, and waste space, making small data transfers suffer.

I have done only the read 1MB and read 100x10KB tests repeatedly, using 16, 32 and 64 buffers, and so far it looks like the value 64 for the buffers performed better. looks like 1024 and 512 are too big. I will test more when I have time, using 256, 128, 64, and maybe the smaller values again. Somewhat more subjectively, it looked like the machine booted faster with the value of 64.

Keeping testing...

EDIT:

Upon further testing, I have been getting 2 types of results on each value. for example, with buffer=128, I have a whole sequence of tests with 10KB*100 best results around 740-750 in a row. After some time, I got batches of poorer results in the range of 800-900 ms. Likewise, I got poorer results with the buffers=64 settings, but it gave the best 'fast batch' of results so far. I will test again with buffers=32 and see if it tops buffers=64. It seems we can make some sense of the results if we compare looong batches of benchmarks over time. Mind you, I am enableing ONLY the 2 read tests (1MB file and 10KB*100) on these tests.

/EDIT
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] Tuatara:
Re: About buffers

This is the HARDEST part of benchmarking, and a point I try to keep re-iterating to everyone who claims "this is the fastest ROM ever", and other such statements.

The problem is the 'real world usage' of the device, not an individual (synthetic) becnhmark which can be run. Quite often the tweaking of the buffer sizes is HEAVILY dependant on the type and 'quality' of use which the device will receive.

For example, for lots of 'PDA type tasks', a smaller buffer size, multiple accesses will be done quickly, and robustly - since the data which is required for display is scattered around the memory of the device.

The counter example is the person using their device for GPS Geo-caching, who requires large buffers of data, with GPS Map information sequentially loaded and presented. Speed of contiguous accesses is required here.

The trick is to find a 'careful' balance between these two values, and then to run the device for a number of days in the 'use case' you're trying to optimize. Not one set of settings is perfect for everyone, but some will come relatively close in general.

Take a look at the Tuma v1.4 ROM registry. The settings I've used in there are the 'optimized' ones I've come up with in my testing. They provide for very good filesystem performance under most conditions, and achieve a good compromise between memory usage and file caching.

I'll be having a closer look at things shortly (when I can) as the AKU3 update has added a few more registry settings which could further enhance the performance (with careful analysis). Until then though - good luck, and keep up the amazing work!

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] StNickZA:
I realise this is probably a terrible idea, but since the Verizon version of our tablet has Kitkat now, what are the chances that it will work on the rest-of-world LTE edition (SM-605)?

I believe the only difference is the LTE bands that it supports. I don't even have a sim in my device, and I use Wifi exclusively, so if the worst that could happen is that I lose mobile data, I think I'd be willing to risk it.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tedre:
Hi, lately my phone is overheating from back bottom, pretty much whenever I use it, also my battery drains really fast, I'm running CM11, but I don't believe that's the case because I've got it for months and didn't have any problems. But lately I was on cruise and spilled some bear on it, my screen didn't work for day, now its working fine also 2 of my navigation buttons don't respond anymore (back button and "more options") What shall I do? I just bought this phone in January and don't really have money, shud I take it to warranty? Water damage sticker behind battery is not pink, only a little bit if u watch carefully (little corner). What should I do?

Sorry for my bad English, I hope you understand me.

Thanks in advance Tedre.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jumaqidi:
Most probably the water fried something up and the display is damaged. Try taking it to warranty and try ur luck. Hope they dun look tat closely at the water damage sticker and you should be alright.

Fail to intall DN3

Hello, I was trying to update my note 2 with DN3 kitkat rom today.. But didn't work! :/

I rooted the phone. I got correct root access.

Then followed the instruction to flash the ROM.

After reboot, I could hear the welcome sound(new) and saw the samsung animated logo..then it stuck there. I waited for some 15mins, but nothing happened, only the animated samsung logo.

I saw an issue in TWRP.. saying there was a problem with permission. I don't know what was it. I tried to fix permission, but it failed. O.o

After nothing worked, now I am in the process of recovery from kies. :(

Perhaps I didn't have the right step by step guide; from rooting the phone to flashing it. :/

If someone could please help, would be great!.. I really want to flash my phone for the DN3 custom rom.

Thanks.

Why do you need to root when flashing custom rom? It is already prerooted. You only need recovery.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cypher_SGN2:
As per rooting instruction, it is mentioned that the device must be rooted before flashing a custom rom from stock rom. O.o

While installing the recovery the device is rooted or another way that I tried was to root by CFroot first, which was successfully done then I got the super user access to install a recovery like TWRP,,

- I have tried clearing cache and data ,restarting, email shows up fine, after a couple of seconds I get the no connection again.

- I also did a full wipe on my tablet and have done everything from scratch practically, a couple of seconds later I receive the no connection error.

- I have also tried a different wi-fi connection, and also tried a 3G connection and the issue still persists.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] PG2006:
Hi,

I hope someone can help me !

I'm trying to programatically make a connection to Bluetooth headset from WM5 device.

Using the GU interface provided on the device, I can

a. discover the headset device, and authenicate

b. Select the headset service, however I'm not certain what is actually

done programatically when perform this selection in the GUI

c. Redirect the audio of the WM5 device to the headset.

This all works fine !

Additionally I seen a lot of programs available to direct the audio of the

device thru the headset, but what I'm missing is the code which

allow me to do things which I currently do via the GUI.

I am now trying to do this all programatically, I've been looking through a

description of the headset profile, it seems to indicate that the AG can

initiate a connection to the HS, the AG is responsible for the creation of :

1. Connection establishment

2. SCO link establishment

In the following code, I think :

BthCreateACLConnection & BthAuthenticate are performing 1

BthCreateSCOConnection is performing 2

CreateFile and DeviceIoControl perform c.

if (ERROR_SUCCESS == BthCreateACLConnection (&b, &h)) {

iRes = BthAuthenticate (&b);

BthCloseConnection (h);

int res = BthCreateSCOConnection (&b, &hSCO);

} else {

iRes = GetLastError ();

MessageBox (hWnd, L"Connection failed", L"Error", MB_OK | MB_TOPMOST);

}

HANDLE h = CreateFile(L"BAG0:",0,0,NULL,OPEN_EXISTING,0,NULL);

if (INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE == h) {

// TODO: Handle failure case where AG is not present

}

BOOL fStatus = DeviceIoControl(h,IOCTL_AG_OPEN_AUDIO,NULL,0,NULL,0,NULL,NULL);

if (FALSE == fStatus) {

// Failed to open BT audio!

} else {

// Success!

}

CloseHandle(h);

I'm currently attempting to make to SCO connection to the BT_ADDR of the

device, as opposed to the socket of the headset service. I'm not certain if

this is correct or not. I get an error code 1229 which means :

An operation was attempted on a nonexistent network connection.

Am I doing something wrong !

Cheers

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Latindude001:
At the moment we don't know yet. But I was told today that you can go back to 4.1.1 with a great risk of bricking your device.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ry_t:
how?:D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bvzxa3:
If you updated to 4.3 you cannot go back to 4.1.1

Also going to 4.1.1 is touchy. If you were to go back you need to go to 4.1.2

Basically if you have the official 4.3 update and beyond you cannot unlock the bootloader or in some instances root.

I am using the Skynote Rc2.5 ROM but I am technically coming from 4.1.2. There is no official 4.2.x update for this version of the Note 2.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] gee1000:
Right, I was asking because the ND3 update doesn't appear to be any different than MJ9 firmware wise except for what I assume are mostly changes in the baseband to accomodate the Telus bands. I would think that safeboot will be updated easily for this minor build but I am not any expert by any means.

I also saw people talking about for the same Telus update for the S3 to just Odin backflash VRUCNC1 4.3 to VRUCML1 4.3 with success (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2575661&page=153). Anyone tried that? I might actually try it myself to get root back. I don't this new "update". I think VZ did this more to take away root than add some really necessary Canadian roaming anyway.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] MrFleming007:
Curious to see what your results are if you do try this. I also feel that VZW did this update more to take root away, especially considering that the base band could have been incorporated into the (hopefully) upcoming 4.4 update.

Yup, this annoyed me enough that I finally got an account! :mad:
