OK plz let us know how it goes! I don't want to sound rude but your phone would be the only snapdragon I have ever seen fail....and I've been using snapdragons since the s1 on a HTC wildfire s
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Top5a:
ZOMG SO RUDE >:D haha, j/k ;P Yea, no problem, dude/dudette! I know how it feels reading threads with no followup... I'm actually surprised that people have come out of the proverbial woodwork mentioning having similar problems to me ! It really sucks spending inordinate amounts of time reading threads and not arriving at a definitive conclusion... so, yea, I especially want to let people know if there is a fix, and/or how I did it.

So, with regard to what you said about the snapdragons not failing... yea. This is rekking my mind, tbh, because I've just never had a device insta-fail on me like this (aside from some old computer hard drives that were server backed up, but yea that's essentially par for the course on that medium [yay for S.M.A.R.T.]). Especially a device that I'd only had for less than 2 years, and though my GS3 has heavy usage, I treat it very well (no drops, water, etc.)... so, yea.

Also, a minority of people with whom I have spoken via the æther have also experienced similar emmc failures on i747s, as well ! Which I was not expecting. It's still insane, though, to believe that, out of such a small percentage of phones that could potentially experience SDS, and then which ones actually do experience it... and then to not even have an i9000 and /still/ experience it on an i747... I feel as though I've won the lotto. Except ****ty.

I'm waiting on parts to come in, then surgery will commence.

Did you try going into download mode? If you can so that then the phone is fine. Another thing is try reflashing stock Odin which will erase msgs and stuff but not music or pics unless u tick "repartition".

ERROR: Stopped due to multiple communication errors. Terminating at 0x0003AB3FBE00

Had to reduce the speed to that 2MHz/1MHz to get communication to work. So, 0x51 is a DCC power failure problem... but it is able to detect the initialized chips. So.. not really sure how to proceed at this point. I haven't checked the signal quality on my NRST line, which apparently can cause problems. Some people have increased the voltage from 1.8 to say 1.9, but doing something like that requires me to actually make my own resurrection file, which I haven't had the time to do yet.

Anyone seen a problem with something like this before?

The 000000 is somewhat unsettling, as the chip is apparently supposed to report some ID#? Although, the failures that I'm getting don't seem to be the typical ones that happen when the emmc becomes completely toasted.

Oh, yea... I can't seem to figure out wth is up with --> WARNING!!! Using Resurrection Data for the eMMC Chip with Capacity = 14,68GB

Like..... ??? I think I'm using the most up to date resurrector?!

EDIT: Dumping out the entire contents of the emmc (haven't had errors so far, but it will take a while at 1 MHz), into a bin file (this avoids the bad sectors in the bootloader).

Does anyone know what to do with the resultant *.bin file? I think that if I got another surrogate GS3, I'd be able to write that onto the phone, essentially cloning my dead phone. I'd like to avoid having to do that, though -- does anyone know how to write one of DCC bin jtag file dumps into a readable file system?
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] james_lpool:
I am in the process of sending my z2 back to amazong for a replacement, due to bad touch issues, but im just wondering if anyone eolse has had theirs replaced and was your new one fine (without touch issues)

When i got my other one, i restored my google account / apps straight away and when they finished i upgraded the fw to .402 straight away, but then still had issues.

I'm just wondering can i leave connecting straight away to my google account, and update the fw, then connect to my google account then restore the z2? i dunno why, im just wondering if this may have helped, or do you think it wouldn't make any difference?

I did do a factory reset of my tablet anyway and this didn't help me.

Thanks

This one seems to have better OpenGL ES 3.0 support than V@45 (graphical_glitch_fix2.zip), OES 3.0 intensive app like dolphin-emu no longer crash.

I don't know about the performance on other OpenGL ES 2.0 games but I think it's worth a try if you are OpenGL ES 3.0 freak :silly:

now, if someone can get moto g v@66 drivers. :p

Tested on FXP322 and FXP323, few days of use, no reboots and crashes so far.

GFXBench 3.0 works on Xperia L now, wasn't working on v@45
[Sony Xperia L] Lazynestor:
Does it work 100% on our xperia L!!!!
[Sony Xperia L] lybxlpsv:
Well, it works on my C2105 on CM11 FXP Build 322. can't guarantee though, so prepare for backups just incase.

To know if it stable

[Sony Xperia L] DsvCdsSoftware:
I don't know but since FXP323, the performance on Sonic Dash, for example, was outstanding comparing to Beta 2. But I think more tests are needed to know if it is completely compatible with our loved L

Working on CarbonRom KitKat [Nightly/Release][4.4.3]

The system is a bit more smooth now, Clash Of Clans game also got smoother.

Asphalt 8 lag reduced when playing with High graphics + 4x MSAA enforced for OpenGL (anti-aliasing)

There are not many notable differences, but it works.
[Sony Xperia L] david makarove:
Same here on fxp 324

i played asphalt and no simple lag notice

Thanks for your work

i hope we get v@66 it will be so great
[Sony Xperia L] Ashish Lahare:

[Sony Xperia L] przemek4113:
The newest adreno drivers can be taken from there https://developer.qualcomm.com/mobi...le-gaming-graphics-adreno/tools-and-resources I think dev can make it working on xperia L .Btw I found a video how to use latest adreno drivers on non-nexus devices see here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ONhQCkCaOlw Hope it can help.

Great

Hope we have it soon

Not sure if doesn't work, or just me doing it wrong. my phone froze at kernel splash screen using that.

Try flashing back to stock caf kernel, I've got problem too with Asphalt 8 when using thunderzap.
[Sony Xperia L] przemek4113:
Of course that the driver doesn't work.Maybe developers can make it working on xperia L.I have tried to install the v@66 drivers on xperia L but phone hangs on bootlogo.Btw the v@53 maked that my phone lags on asphalt so i reverted to the old v@45 driver .He's the best for me.
[Sony Xperia L] david makarove:
any chance to get v@66 work on our L ?
[Sony Xperia L] maulik.vaghela:
Hi,

I tried to do as per video.

I moved files as per our folder structures and tried to zip it again.

Now When I try to flash it from Philz, I get error "installation aborted".

Do I need to change updater-script?

Am I doing mistake in making zip?

Just curious to know. :)
[Sony Xperia L] przemek4113:
You can download for example fxp 326 open the build and push the files in to the build.I have tried it but it won't work.You will get bootolop as I got.The drivers need to be modified to work on xl.Btw to make a flashable zip you need to make a update script.
[Sony Xperia L] maulik.vaghela:
Thank you for reply.

One question, Can I directly use update script provided in zip file which I downloaded from qualcomm site?

or do I need to change it?

I won't flash it as it's not working but just curious.;)
[Sony Xperia L] przemek4113:
Hmm... I don't know .Ask a dev .I'm not a expert so can't say :(

[Sony Xperia L] Howdareme:
Ik that... that is why i was asking fora new zip..
[Sony Xperia L] przemek4113:
I don't even think that if someone could do this for xl there will be no noticable difference as on @53 driver.The only difference on @53 is that gfxbench is working and wasn't on @45 driver.
[Sony Xperia L] Howdareme:
There will im sure we've missed 8 months of drivers and your saying there will be no noticeable difference?!
[Sony Xperia L] przemek4113:
Go to quallcomm site and read the changelog from this and previous relases...
[Sony Xperia L] Howdareme:
There is a huge changelog benchmarks wont help you have to test yourself..
[Sony Xperia L] przemek4113:
I know.You're right.But as I said there's no noticable difference.Maybe there are some improvements but they are small and you won't notice it in basic phone functions.Anyway I would really be happy to test the newest driver and see if there are some improvements.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krYshuT:
I just turned back to my old SGS, because my One M8 is on RMA and I'd like to know your subjective opinion on which is the fastest ROM out there. I don't really care much about features, just want a stable base.

Gingerbread is really fast on this phone, but I'd like to use something newer, namely ICS or newer...

I tried last CM 11 M7 and that was just unusably slow. Didn't think that this phone has a problem with KitKat.

So I tried CM 9.1, because people here said that it's faster than KK... and it was okay, but it was definitely slower than official GB, especially after I installed just about 20 apps.

Now I'm clueless, is there anything 4.x faster then these? Should I stay on stock?

Thanks :)

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Drhedphuk:
Try Nameless. Word of caution though. Change the boot animation. I usually do this and delete the original rom animation before flashing to phone.

The rom is fast and smooth, currently 4. 4. 3. The original boot animation does cause problems though so make sure to change it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knuckles1978:
What problems does the boot animation cause? I've never heard of this..

You're talking specifically about nameless ROM?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Drhedphuk:
Yeah specifically nameless.

On initial boot after flashing it is fine, but booting after that bootloops or simply hangs for an age. I saw a post on the nameless thread saying they had left it for 3 hours I think they said.

I extracted the omni boot animation which works fine, but I have tried others and have had the same problem.

Other than that the Rom is flawless.

[General Questions and Answers] n4n0Br4in:
Recently I played a game (Valkyrie Crusade).

I noticed that after playing several mins/hours, when I quit the game and checked my RAM, its only left about 100Mb.

All my activity on phone became laggy because of that. I tried many clearing-RAM app but no one can do the job.

I read on thats game's forum, it is indeed caused by the memory leaks from the game. I still like to play the game though, thats why I'm looking for solution.

The only solution I found is, I must restart my phone after playing that game.

So, Is there any app that can clear the RAM (in my case, it caused by the app's memory leak)?

(PS: I'm not rooting my phone)

Note: Sorry about my english...:D
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] jorge_culv:
Ok after reading a searching awhile, it appears most HTC phones have a weak IR transmitter. One solution is to use an extender or repeater, I found 2 so far:

1. LeapFrog:

http://www.audiovox.com/webapp/wcs/...10001&storeId=10001&productId=14186&langId=-1

2. Griffin Total Remote with Dongle (out of production, but some may be available)

Total Remote uses its own software, but I image LeagFrog could be used with any remote software, the best of which appears to be NoviiRemote.

:arrow: Any had any luck using a Wizard with either Total Remote or LeapFrog/NoviiRemote?

This is an amazing ROM. Stability is definitely on lower side but with so many features you are tempted to keep this ROM. Now I have figured out few issues

- device restarts if you try to uninstall any app

- Camera is a bit unstable. Keep giving FC when I try to open it.

If you provide me with solutions to these two solutions, this ROM is going to be my daily partner. Also to confirm everyone, there is no battery drain anymore and rather its good compare to my stock ROM. I am hoping for solutions to these issues soon. Thanks Heaps for your work.
