hi (this is my first post),

i'm trying to tweak the maximum from the pressure sensor in the galaxy s4 coding up a variometer app (yes, i know there are several).

the chip in the device is a bosch180 with quite impressive specs.

i've tried to increase polling rate so as to do filtering without encoding too much delay (which is what other apps are suffering from, imho - hence the motivation).

i found that no matter what poll interval i specify (either through SensorManager.registerListener in java or ASensorEventQueue_setEventRate in native), the refresh rate is always the same (as per logcat):

Sensors(814): Pressure old sensor_state 129, new sensor_state : 137 en : 1

or and diffing event timestamps in the app (that actually shows 170-180 millisecs)

so i went digging further, trying to untangle the mysteries of pressure sensor. i checked the chip specs and linux drivers, and still believe faster polling should be possible.

i'm on cm11-jflte (both release and built from source), rooted

cm11 kernel is configured to use the sensorhub ssp drivers for the pressure sensor (not bmp085.c or bmp18x.c), i tried to re-hardcode the default polling rate for the pressure sensor in the ssp driver files (which is otherwise 200ms for all sensors across the board), which changes the poll_delay file contents on the sysfs, but doesn't change the behavior in the app.

i currently don't have the time to untangle the workings of ssp.

QUESTION: where in the (java or) native android layer or the ssp kernel drivers are the default(?) polling rates for specific sensors specified?

ALT: other ideas as to how to proceed?

(i will reconfigure the kernel to use one of the the other bmp drivers next, but fear how that will impact the rest of the sensorhub...)

(i realize this is more of a hacking/tweaking topic, but as i just signed up to ask this specific question, i'm not yet allowed to post in the rom/tweaks development section - if a moderator could maybe move the thread...)

thanks for all ideas in advance!
[C++ or Other Android Development Languages] kolijoco:
other drivers don't help.

the hardware is being run by ssp kernel drivers, i could not locate the pressure sensor as a stand-alone anywhere on the i2c.

i'm guessing the driver is being interacted with through the sensors.msm8960.so and sensorhub.msm8960.so hal implementations (which are proprietary blobs).

playing around in shell, i found that in fact the polling rate (in sysfs) is set to 66.7ms (15Hz) when i register my listener at SENSOR_DELAY_FASTEST, but the events are still only reported every 180ms.

i was able to intercept pressure events from the shell using getevent /dev/input/event6 and the reported timestamps are also showing 180ms between events.

ideas, anyone?

Hi all,

I would like to use standard wired headset for MDA Pro, but after wired headset is plugged into 3,5 connector , I can hear only sound from standard speakers, but not from headset.

Is there necessary to allow or change something in WM5?

Thx

i know this is a stupid question, but it could save a lot of trouble:

are you absolutely sure it's plugged in correctly?

if the answer is yes, go and check anyway :D

otherwise, i think it's broken. it should switch automatically and i'm not aware of any setting (like screen autorotate).
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] akar134:
Hi r3bel,

thank you for your response,

I know, it sounds stupid, but I'm sure that it is connected properly. I have tried it with serveral types of headphones. Maybe you are right --> its broken. Anyway is there any possibilty how to check if it is a really HW problem (I want to be sure --> some diag soft, etc ...) ?

Thx

I have found where is the problem, If I push on headphone's jack it is ok. So it seems that there is a problem with metal contact inside MDA. Thaks a lot for you advise.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Peikko:
Hello,

I have created a simliar thread in the Nexus 5 subforum a while ago but didn't get much help or attention. My problem happended to me today again and I though maybe I crate a thread here to get more help.

I am running a Nexus 5 with everything stock 4.4.4, ART runtime, root enabled.

Some weeks ago my phone switched off automatically and when it rebooted it started to optimize my apps for dalvik. So after the crash it switched from ART to dalvik. I wiped it and installed everything fresh. On the same day it happened again. It just turned off and switched back to ART. I was running ART since I bought this phone and now it makes problems suddenly?

This morning I woke up and my phone was turned off. I switched it on and it took unusuallly long in the "google" screen and after the boot I was presented with the install wizzard. Also the phone tells me that I have not enough storage (no external storage).

Before wiping the phone completly again I first want to check how to save my files.

But does anybody know what is happening here?

EDIT: Also I have no connection to my provider anymore.

EDIT2: Tryed fo flash factory images but it keeps on failing: "FAILED (remote: flash write failure)".

Guess I have to send it to repair ... but it is rooted. Will google still take care of it?
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] classicalpunk:
Hi everyone !

I recently got my digitizer changed (apparently phones don't like faceplants :o) and when i got it back I noticed a "slight" change.

Symptom :

When I touch the screen and slide my finger there's a little lag before the move is recorded by the phone, like, I have to move my finger more than 1/2 inch away from the starting point or it consider my finger didn't move from it. (thus resulting in little jumps when sliding through menus or if you wanna draw a circle it start by drawing a straight line :silly:) After the phone catches up however (so, as long as I keep my finger on it) it follow up well just like it has to :good:.

Resolution tested :

Through research I think my problem could come from a change between the dpi of the stock digitizer and the one I got in replacement, so the stock touch_slop value isn't adapted anymore. I tried to change it in my build.prop, but it made no difference and the problem is still here. Although it doesn't mean the problem doesn't come from that (The way Android handles touch_slop has changed in the latest versions) I don't know how to fix it and I need advices. Has someone already encountered that problem ? How can I fix it :confused:?
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] classicalpunk:

[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Furrydaus:
Firstly, Did you ask SONY to change the digitzer or from an external vendor?

Secondly, was the digitizer flex cable given to you when you purchased the new one?

Thridly, Is the digitizer properly placed on your screen?
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] classicalpunk:
External vendor, I firstly went to the official support and they said It would cost me the price of the phone, :rolleyes:, so I didn't insist on the "official" way

I'm not the one who changed the digitizer, I went to a local tech shop, the only thing I was given was my phone.

Yep, from an external point of view you can't say it has been changed (If you don't mind the big cracks that were there before :p)
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Furrydaus:
Ok so the tech shop might be the problem. They might have used an incorrect cable and might have also provide you with a bad digitizer. The Cable is essential as it transfers touch signals to the board and if its faulty or not of good quality the digitizer might as well be useless. For the digitzer you might want to check with them on what digitzer they used and if its those cheap 'china' brand types then it's also not good for your phone. Quickly get to the shop and ask them to help you because a faulty digitzer might break your whole device :crying:
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] classicalpunk:
Yeah it might be, but as I said, it's only the first "move" that lags, it record the touch at the exact moment I touch the screen and after the first 1/2 inch is past there's no problem anymore so I don't really think the problem is related to that.

Actually, I think there was a similar "problem" a few years back, it was related to the way Android make a difference between a click and a swype. Its create a deadzone around the first point that's touched by your finger, so that every time you click it's not considered as a swype (because biologically you just can't click only ONE pixel). The size of this deadzone was the same on every phone and was related to the touch_slop value. At some point on some "newer" phone the size of the digitizer was bigger but not the dpi and so the deadzone began to be a hindrance more than a conveniance, cause its size grew with the size of the screen. I was then decided to change the way it was handled by the system and a new method has been implemented, using mtouchslope value, that's not just a number of pixel but that's calculated from the dpi value of the digitizer. SO I think that the digitizer I got isn't the same as the stock one (just like you said) but I think there's a way for me to fix the problem in a more "software-way". The only thing I don't know here, is how can I change the digitizer's dpi value that's stored inside the phone.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Furrydaus:
Dude you should have used the reply funtion so I could reply more quickly :p

Anyways there is Resolution Changer by NoMone in the Play Store that deals with the resolution changes and DPI too. >>>

Regards,

Furrydaus
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] classicalpunk:
Yeah, I already looked for that, and the dpi value that's changed by this app is also present in the build.prop file but it only changes the dpi of the lcd screen and not the digitizer's one, so it doesn't really help me in this case. But thanks for your concern anyway :p
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Furrydaus:
Well thats a shame... How about you seek more help from your local tech shop? I'm sure they'll be more than happy to tell more! ;)

No problem mate! I hope I've helped you in any ways possible! Hope you have a great day ahead!

Like the title says, will LG bring to us an update to the new UX? First hoangnova sayd something about this and now GSM Arena is the second one that is spreading the news. Is just again for the crappy L-series? Hope not!!!

[LG Optimus G (International)] dwielunski:
The press release from LG is about future low- and mid-range phones. Not about previous-generation flagship. It is being widely misinterpreted by blogs and readers. I hope that hoangnova had a different source and was not similarly misunderstanding a statement along the lines of the current one from LG.
[LG Optimus G (International)] akahroba:
I agree. I have to say G3 UX is not a simple theme! almost all the appsand system ui should be upgraded. Personally, don't see any reason for LG to do it. But really hope we'll get it :P

Well, let's see if G2 takes it first, and then we could ask it :p
[LG Optimus G (International)] grrrr_unt:

The press release said: "LG Electronics (LG) will begin standardizing its proprietary UX features, first introduced in the new LG G3, across most of the company's mid- to entry-level smartphones and tablets launched in the second half of this year."

Doesn't sound like it'll include all previously released devices..

I'm looking for a stable KitKat rom on s2. have tried slim (stable) and carbon (nightly) but both seem to lag, FC and/or RR. Can you recommend me some or is it better to switch back to JB? Is the battery drain on KK always higher than on a stable JB?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] @SidDev:
battery backup is better in kk

did you try CyanogenMod?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tufighter:
not yet, my thoughts are: the bigger the rom, the more probable it is, that it consumes more battery. Slimrom seemed to be the smallest rom I found so far for s2.

Hi, I'm using the latest KitKat 4.4.2 E988 ROM on my LG G Pro E988, and when I try to record video, the audio is not consistent. As in the audio will suddenly become soft, then normal again, then soft, then normal again, the soft.. you get the idea. Anyone facing that?

I used the stock LG Camera and Google Camera (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.GoogleCamera), but both also have the same problem. I suspect it might have something to do with the noise cancellation?

I record the video to built-in storage, and I still have space left.

my internet seems to be ramping up and the diving.

take a look at this

i dont even know what info you would need to help with this.

win 7 x64 ult

arris modem

linksys router.

router was not hooked up for most of the test as i bypassed it.

but the speeds did not change when i hooked it back up and my phone is still pulling full speed from the router so modem and router seem to be working fine. the only thing that i can think of is that my network controller is messing up but what on earth would cause it to ramp up slowly over 2 hours then dive only to do it over again.

ask away i really need this to stop.

edit: there was even an updated driver for my NIC that i just found that came out about a month ago and STILL no better.

Just re checked Philz touch and can confirm 100% fixed permissions is not there, anywhere

When I install this rom it installs using aroma. I'm just wondering if that's causing the problem as previous roms I flashed were solely installed by Philz Touch

Rom seems more or less the same. I flashed both phones in the exact same way so don't understand how one can't backup. I need to backup incase anything goes wrong.

To be honest I want a TW rom that works 100% all the time! I just really like the look of the S5 rom. Most of these S5 roms after a week or two start slowing down and become unusable

With deep clean your S3 came back to factory status without root and custom recovery. You must do these things:
