You've certainly gotten yourself into a pickle.

First of all, I agree with Sunny, why can't you get it via ActiveSync? You shouldn't need to do anything PDA-side to get it to link. Plug the xda into the cradle, and the cable into the computer, and voila! it should automatically find it and you can grab the files you need.

Another suggestion, maybe use Grab It, the invisible rom dumper. I have never used it myself, but have a look at the following link and see if it might help. It is a fairly extreme way to do it, but if all else fails...

Hi guys...

How is everyone?

Kindly see the following two pics.

When the focus is on the tubelight the screen goes all yellow and thus the resulting pic as well.

but when I covered the tube light with my hand IT returns to normal the actual colour that is there.

Do any of you guys have this problem how should I get my unit replaced?

Is this even a problem or normal white balance stuff?

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] thesoupthief:
Sorry, didn't mean to sound so chippy. The fact of it is though that this is not a problem. The phone's software adjusts depending on lighting conditions so when you change the lighting it's gonna change its behaviour. Go take some pics in daylight and other real world conditions if you want to confirm whether it's operating correctly. You can always find ways to catch these algorithms out with artificial situations

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] shailendra1993:
Yes, this is not a problem, a reviewer showed how the camera reacted when photo was taken from two different angles, at one angle green color was dominant while on different angle it was not.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] 3DRIAN:
If you happen to still have your Poco, this condition is NOT a hardware nor a white balance problem on Poco. This is a normal behaviour of the flourescent lighting especially when the camera is using fast shutter speed. The yellowing is a phenomenon in which the camera captures the lower portion of the flicker curve, in laymans term, when the light has just turned ON and is not on its peak power yet.

But why was it using fast shutter speed? It should use low shutter speed!

You have a camera with a sensor that can capture huge amount of light at a given intensity and has the capability to use fast shutter speed in order to not blind itself (to not overblown the image). If you ever do use a slower shutter speed, there is a huge probability of the image of being overblown or for the moving subjects to have trails. You could still make some few adjustments in manual mode.

But my old smartphone renders the proper white color!

It is true, it renders white colors because it might be having a lower aperture, smaller sensor or even smaller photocells. To put it simply, it is using slower shutter speeds because it is what it can do and it is doing well with flourescent. It is not being blinded by the light because its camera configuration is not advanced enough to capture more light on a given amount of intensity, does slow shutter speed.

Put this into your mind: At a given constant white balance, a magnetic ballast flourescent lamp will still emit yellow tint/cast whenever the camera is using fast shutter speed. This is NOT an issue of the camera itself but a limitation of of the light source itself because advanced camera systems were now fast enough to capture its low power phase/state.

This phenomenon DOES show on full flrame cameras ie Nikon D90 and Canon Rebel XSI 450d, due to them having bigger sensors therefore using even more faster shutter speed. This doesn't mean that they're defective.

This phenomenon DOES NOT show on high frequency lamps such as midrange LEDs and mostly Flourescents with electronic ballast.

If you really are into photography and wanted to do it under a Flourescent lamp, read these links:

If you read them properly, you should know that this do happen even on Full frame cameras. The main culprit was the magnetic ballast flourescent.

[Magisk] 3c:
Just thought to let you all know.

I just installed a Nexus 4 with 5.1.1 and installed Magisk v16 along with Manager v5.8.3. It offered to update to 5.9.0 which I did. All ok, it then said Magisk is not installed while current version has bumped up to v17. Cool.

Well that was it, manager hanged permanently and I couldn't even control the device with ADB, reboot shell, nothing worked.

Rebooted manually, hanged the same, could use adb shell, but impossible to do anything.

Only solution: wipe/reinstall. Maybe installing v17 manually would have helped, but I didn't bother.

To all, be careful updating to 5.9.0.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] bengalih:
So with all the excitement going on in the page pool thread I was doing some external reading. One topic that caught my interest is NAND and NOR ROM.

I got a nice summary from here:

http://blogs.msdn.com/windowsmobile/archive/2005/08/19/453784.aspx

Basically, the synopsis is:

NOR: Faster to read, slower to write.

NAND: Slower to read, faster to write.

But, more importantly, NOR ROM let's you perform XIP operations. Now i remember seeing this XIP acronym before...in a directory when I extracted a ROM. This leads me to believe that at least part of the ROM in the Kaiser is NOR ROM.

XIP means eXecute In Place. It basically allows code to be executed directly from the ROM without first being copied into the RAM. This means less RAM utilization. As the article states i works for programs only, not user data files.

If we look in the XIP directory of an extracted ROM we see subdirectories like:

busenum.dll

diskcache.dll

imgfs.dll

These are things like low level bus, disk, and file system drivers. These things make perfect sense to XIP.

My question then is... if indeed we do have NOR ROM that can do XIP operations, how much is free on a typical ROM? AND can we cook in other applications into this XIP NOR location instead of into the NAND ROM and thus have those eXecute in Place and free up additional RAM?

It would be nice to get the 3% of my RAM back from Voice Command, or the 1% from PocketCM, etc, etc...

Could it be as easy as moving .dll files from \SYS to \ROM\XIP before cooking the ROM? I doubt it, but is it possible?

I'm just throwing a concept out there and asking about it's feasability. I'm not really a developer so I don't know how much further I can take this.

Thoughts?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] NuShrike:
I don't think that blog applies to the Kaiser-like devices anymore. We already use all the ROM space we get. The partitioning between XIP and storage is out of the same space and controlled by how the ROM image is built and whatever they set the pagepool to.

Did you run out of space of the 100MB+ internal storage we all get?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] bengalih:
I don't know why it wouldn't apply...it's not a WM5 vs WM6 issue.

Based on the only specs I have seen it lists the Kaiser with 256 ROM and 128 RAM.

The question is what type of ROM is it? Devices can mix NOR and NAND ROM. And based on what I see on the extracted ROM, at least some of it must be NOR (because of the existence of the XIP directories).

And this isn't a question of storage space. I am not trying to get more usable storage...I have a 8GB SDHC card for that. I am trying to maximize my available application space.

The point of my post is... can an application, let's say like Voice Command be moved from what might be the NAND portion of the ROM into the NOR portion of the RAM (from \SYS to \ROM\XIP). It would take up the same space of the TOTAL ROM, but when it executed it DOES NOT NEED BE LOADED INTO RAM and thus your available application space is not decreased.

Again, I am not a developer, so I may be way off in asking if this can be done. However your response is one that doesn't speak to the theory I am proposing.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] austinsnyc:

Some interesting things

I found this wile reading the link you posted. Some great information in there.

So am I reading this right. That any program we have stored on our Storage Card won't utilize the XIP
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] GSLEON3:
I've been working on & subsequently screwing up, page pool alteraitions for awhile. Because I'm messing with a Kaiser(CE5) & a UMPC (CE6) based device, I can tell you that while the pagepool will save you some seconds, mostly with the loading of contacts, your inbox, & the boot to os speed of the device, for the most part you're right, you won't see much difference.

However, with CE6, that will change. With CE 6 based devices you will be able to completely comtrol paging, be it XIP or Data (Read Only) paging. Maybe wm7 will introduce CE6 to PDA devices. With CE6, formerly & frequently confused with WM6, you will have 2 page pools & several controls over them including compaction.

The effectiveness of page pool sizes can vary widely depending on the types of processes & programs you use, but suffice to say, the average user will take little to no benefit from a larger paging file.

For all of you truly interested, there is a PB process file called DevHealth.exe, that can be used via SD card to report the actual status of the paging pool. Google it, you will find it. Kind of interesting to see what your device is actually doing before & after the changes.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] austinsnyc:
No but what the OP is asking is if we can take apps and put them in the XIP section and run them from there. I think someone should try it out just cook up a rom with a complete app cooked in the XIP and see what happens. the worst is bad blocks i would guess but maybe POF or OLI should chime in on this one.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] GSLEON3:
I do believe you can XIP from an SD card, I believe MS has done this with a few test devices that utilize under battery sd cards. I think it's not something they've done mostly because of problems in system stability when the SD is removed.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] bengalih:
THANK YOU AUSTIN! :D

Yes, this is what I am saying. Forget about SD cards (which, according to what I have read are all NAND and thus can't XIP).

I am just asking if some of the applications that we are cooking into the flash (the things that extract to \SYS) like MS Voice Command, CM Contacts, QuickGPS, etc... if instead those things can be places in XIP.

Again, this is under the assumption (which is a big assumption) that what is in \XIP gets placed in the NOR ROM and what is in \SYS gets placed in the NAND.

What this would mean is that when you execute any of the programs I mention, like say Quick GPS

you won't see the RAM utilization on your device go up, meaning you will have the same amount of available free memory.

This is because of the XIP (based on the description I have read) it can be

executed from the ROM without being copied into RAM.

Now, my guess is that even though the NOR has faster reads than NAND, it still might be slower than RAM. So, it might take another second to open Quick GPS. However for some apps I think I would prefer the slight delay in order for my available memory to be increased.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] bengalih:
Good info Leon...but better to put this in the pagepool thread so we can discuss it there (and please do). What I'm trying to get at here is not directly related to pagepool sizes and speeds.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] bengalih:
That's

entirely possible

. Again, I'm being the "idea guy" as I'm trying to synthesize some info I have absorbed. The most programming I do is high level scripting and VB so I don't know details about how this stuff would actually work down at the memory map level. There may be some other issues as well. I was hoping there was someone in these forums who actually had the knowledge (and wasn't just following cooking tutorials like most of us) of how this stuff truly interacts.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] bengalih:
Also please reference my post in the pagepool thread, has some good thoughts (I think!):

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=2101324&postcount=99
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] bengalih:
In addition to the above, I have found some more info which may partially defeat my reasoning:

So it seems that just because we have a \XIP directory doesn't mean we have NOR ROM. It could just be the area the ROM places data that in NEEDS to XIP, and therefore means that it will get copied to RAM on boot (instead of just XIPing from where it is in ROM). This could also account for the additional "missing" RAM up to 128MB.

Therefore moving an application to this \XIP pre-cook doesn't mean that it will save us any RAM (again, assuming we DON'T have NOR ROM). It could however speed up that application since we are basically "pre-loading" it into RAM instead of waiting for the load to be user initiated.

I guess a question now is does all XIPed code run at the same time and is that all at boot? It does us no good to try and load up voice command (or QuickGPS, etc.) before the supporting code from the OS has loaded.

So, this may all be a wash, but it does help explain some of the interaction better and even if it leads no where, at least we will better understand how the devices memory system works.
