Someone that keeps bringing up a point that the other person has already conceded has lost the the main argument and is grasping at straws. As far as 1.5 seconds... Your screen looked like it redrew *mostly* at 1 second... but there were 1 or two that took slightly less, however I will repeat that you are doing this with NO PROGRAMS LOADED. Again... who switches from portrait to landscape on the homescreen? What would you ever have to TYPE on the homescreen? Even with just the SPB mobile shell, I notice a bit more lag in flipping back and forth. That said, I think we've taken this discussion as far as it will go, and it looks like you and I are getting to the same page of "let's agree to disagree". So to sum up: With no programs loaded on a fresh reboot of the phone, our phones perform the same. I will contend that it will go from Portrait to Landscape in roughly 1 second (For a point of reference, this is ONE FRAME PER SECOND). I really can't believe you don't see the redraw problems in the Youtube TomTom comparison video, while scrolling up and down in Programs, or while switching from P to L while in a program such as PIE, Skyfire, etc. Ultimately, though, without a frame of reference as to previous devices' performance, I can see how you may be perfectly happy with this performance. The computer I owned 10 years ago gave me years of entertainment, and I certainly never complained about the speed of it... if I had owned my current computer *first* however, and then gone back to the older one... see where I'm going with this? Now with that comparison, pretend I traded in the current computer for the older one and spent 600 bucks doing so.

Again... sounds like we're agreeing to disagree, which is probably the most we can expect from each other right now. I hope your phone gives you years of enjoyment, I really do... also, I really *don't* hope you die alone. :)
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] groovdafied:
Oh my god!

You know, I can understand if you're justifying your purchase because it's lacking features like Ram, GPS or Design for that matter. But for people to be complainging about a second of redraw to me is so CHILDISH.

I run Opera 9, YouTube videos, sync my Napster/Rhapsody songs and play them back to my bluetooth stereo headphones, use the GPS, play games, pictures, videos, organization. Ya, not all these programs aren't run all at once, but I would use like music with net browsing or GPS guidance, and I wouldn't get a hiccup. My only gripe is the amount of system memory, but that's it. I can care less about a screen taking one second to redraw from one P to L and vise versa. I mean how much of your life do you feel is wasted when noticing that one second has lapsed to 2 seconds for the sceen to return to normal, yet your apps are still working as they should?

I don't know if I'm making sense here, but I read this whole thread, and it's just a bunch of lip work from one user to another, saying I'm right and you're wrong.

Geeze enjoy your device and move on! I honestly think since the word got out about HTC not having the license to create "proper drivers" for video acceleration, people want to complain about it so they can get a new software goodie to give them peace of mind that they have a new toy for their phone.

I'm not pointing to anybody in particular, but in general. You can flame me as much as you want, I'm not really going to care, cause it's not going to stop me from enjoying my handset with what I'm doing on it already. I can watch videos smoothly, listen to music, read emails, go to websites and get directions very fluently and I'm friggin happy that I can actually do something like that!
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] faceless:
the redraws in the video are all 0.4-0.6 seconds
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Foetus:
Don't mind if I do! HTC has stated that they are not going to turn on the video acceleration due to licensing. Putting the argument aside that they advertised a chipset that is known to have video acceleration built in as being in their product, they have stated that they are doing SOMETHING. All I want is some information on a timeframe. Complaining about a products performance in regards to a MUCH OLDER device is not "childish". That said, this thread was NEVER about complaining... just information gathering. The only people whining and complaining so far have been people telling me what *MY* friggin' level of satisfaction should be with a device.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Asphyx:
Here is the timeframe....

NEVER!

You want acceleration you will get it far quicker by upgrading your phone when your contract runs out than you will waiting for them to enable that feature...

Even if they did enable it you still have to wait for the carriers to release a Rom that supports the fix!
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Foetus:
Wait for the carrier? Have you even heard of DCD? :)

Honestly, people always seem to take the negative outlook. "Never" was claimed for Rev A. "Never" was claimed for the GPS... I'm sure HTC will strike a balance somewhere along the road. Although HTC would love to see people upgrade to the next version of their phones, they know there's plenty of competition out there if they tick off too many customers.

Honestly, if the patch never comes out, and Sprint only gets HTC products for their WM phone solutions, I will most likely dump Sprint when the time comes to upgrade... but I'm fairly confident that either HTC will release the patch (*not* the acceleration everyone seems to think I am waiting for) to improve performance eventually.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] digitaloutsider:
I can only hope HTC does in fact make video driver pack because I personally don't find the performance of the device acceptable either. I love my Titan, but issues with the video and HTC not wanting to fix it is making me want to jump ship back to Palm whenever the 800W comes out.

Then again, if any company likes to **** all over its customers, it has to be Palm.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] bedoig:
You were the victim of circumstance. There were so many threads mindlessly complaining about hardware video acceleration that most people assumed this was just another one of those. And some people just like to argue. Bottom line, the device could perform better and I'll welcome any optimizations we get.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] groovdafied:
Good for you, I hope you get your information. Even though this thread started as an information thread, it sure turned into a whining one.:rolleyes:
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Keystone:
None of us have leaking contacts within the R&D of HTC. We

are

at the mercy to the carriers for what we have access to. It takes at least one carrier to provide the material for ROMs... Without that carrier we'd barely progress.

That's disowning spin if I ever did witness. Let's be honest then -- you should have avoided insults, name-calling, bullying, and onto overt exaggeration for your NEGATIVE complaints.

Foetus, you've been all over the place. This thread could have been much more relaxing if you weren't bouncing from one extreme to another -- partisan, member insulting, and absolutely condemning extreme against HTC to your more lovey-dovey wait and see optimism of your previous post...... Toning down and rational balance could have been key.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Keystone:
Can you be specific against what is hampering you?

Has this view manifested from personal use or been warped by rants you've seen on the internet? By your comment of "HTC not wanting to fix it" I will assume that your viewpoint is skewed by blogging misinformation.

What exactly do you feel is owed to you, why, and what are your specific complaints. I think those are fair points to be explored rather than the mirroring of generalised complaining.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] digitaloutsider:
I don't feel anything is owed to me, but I do feel that the performance of the Titan leaves a lot to be desired, especially in stock form. I'm running the stock Sprint ROM and even after a soft reset, the phone is using 70% of it's available internal memory. I don't have much of anything installed on the device aside from the Palm threaded SMS and the HTC home screen. Even after wiping the Titan completely, it's using roughly 65% of the available memory. As soon as I start the messaging app, open Outlook and then browse around in IE, the phone slows to a crawl, and flipping the keyboard out is absolutely painful. If a call comes through, it'll lag for about 4-5 seconds, then finally display the caller ID. I don't find this functionality acceptable.

I'm not saying the Titan is an awful device and HTC is an awful company (they're my favorite phone manufacturer), but you can't honestly say that you wouldn't mind better performance out of the box.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] bakntyme:
It is very unlikely that any patch issued by HTC will substantially increase the amount of available memory, as it is limited by the amount of physical memory in the device and the memory requirements of the operating system.

I have seen several posts by other users that said that HTC Home caused problems, and their Titan's performance improved significantly after uninstalling it. I also remember some saying that it required a hard reset to completely uninstall HTC Home.

edit: I don't want to have to post a video, but my Mogul fluctuates around 23.4 MB (50%) available after a soft reset with OEM 3.35, with my usual apps installed. If you are showing 35% available after a hard reset there must be a problem.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] bedoig:
Ya, HTC Home is definetly a memory hog. I really like it so I deal with it though.

I hear No2Chem's 5066 build has almost 30MB free after reboot. Might want to give it a shot.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Foetus:
I tend to disagree... my first post was optimistic and looking for answers. My next post was explaining my position a little more clearly. Eventually, I released THE BEAST because I felt that it was the only way to get through to that particular person. I inquired as to why someone would post in a forum they basically had no interest in, and was met with someone translating it into my being a prick and telling someone what they can and can't read. Flame-baiting, essentially... So I tailored my response accordingly. Plus, it was funny... at least to *me*. I was laughing my head off while writing that beauty. In life, you get what you give, and people love to post crap on forums without ever questioning why they do it. I find the people with the least amount to say always have the greatest amount of posts. That aside, I was immediately impressed that he didn't escalated the situation, so I changed my tone in respect. He was starting to get out of line, so I wrote a post that blew the line into little pieces. It could have either escalated or turned into a conversation... it did the latter, and I gained a bit of respect for the poster (although we still obviously disagree).

As for my negative complaints... they were about the poster's approach of the subject. As for *insults*, they were (as far as I can remember) contained in that single e-mail, and as for "toning it down"... you can't tone it down if you don't first crank it up. I could be wrong, but I have a feeling that everything would have just turned into a passive-agressive argument that went nowhere if it weren't for that post.

Finally... I am *proud* of that post. I am no different in life as I am hiding behind the general anonymity of the internet. I only wish more people were like-minded. I will debate anything... when you try change what has been said to support your point of view, though, I *will* dumb it down to petty insults (with a smattering of points just in case that person is listening).
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] eddiert:
I type at the home screen every time I want to find a contact. If you want to call Mike in your contacts simply type Mike at the home screen and the dialer comes up with Mike's contact infromation. Now if you do this while the phone is redrawing you will only get the E at the end of mike showing you all of the contacts that start with E ruining a very usefull feature. Am I the only one who sees or does this?

[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] bakntyme:
Amazing! You won't be the only one any longer now that you have disclosed this great feature. Thanks!

Dialing from the home screen

Actually I just flashed the No2Chem 5066 rom this morning with a 9mb pagepool (from a DCD 3.04 with default pagepool) and the rotate speed seems much faster. I no longer have to wait to start typing.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Asphyx:
Sure I have I run his Roms all the time...

Did you know that DCD is limited in features he can incorporate by what is already released for other units?

We have 6.1 because it was released for another device...

We would not have the GPS upgrade if not for a leaked (and buggy) Radio release or the official Radio release from Sprint and Alltell!

This is a driver issue...only one place in the world can fix it...HTC!

And they are not going to waste more time on a driver for a phone someone already paid for! The only reason we have GPS enabled is because someone screwed up at HTC and said they were going to enable GPS and RevA.

Class Action!

When you see a notice on the HTC site that they are going to make a more efficient Video Driver you might have a shot! By the time it is released you will probably already have upgraded to some other unit with 128 Megs of Ram and a much better Video Driver!

But you won't be able to cobble together a ROM by stealing a driver from some other unit and expect it to work.

I look at this thread in the same way I look at the Ram upgrade thread...

Wishfull thinking!

Never going to happen!
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Asphyx:
I'll bet if you cooked a rom without the slidesound you would find that you have a much faster response...

Here is the issue...

The redraw is slowed by a bunch of things when you slide...

First it rotates the screen...Total Redraw as opposed to a simple update...

Second it tries to play a sound...

Third it checks if it is supposed to light the keyboard...

Fourth is has to find the place you want to type again...

Awful lot to do efficiently when you are running a device that has about 10-15 megs of operating ram left...
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] eddiert:
The rom I'm running now has slidesound (although I disable it most of the time it doesn't seem to matter) and it still seems to rotate faster and solve the problem. It happened on every rom I ran previously (which was the Stock Verizon, many different DCD roms, and a No2Chem 5060.)

Maybe a quick little poll on how many people have the issue if we're not getting off topic. Not that that's been a problem so far in this thread. :D

The new rom that I am running now (No2Chem 5066) claims to run a different kernel (which is how it frees up so much more ram I think.)
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Asphyx:
I have found (by flashing at least 50 permutations of different ROMs here) that the key to a smooth operating device is to limit as much as possible the amount of background programs that run.

Even with Slidesound disabled (via config) there is a program running to check when you slide it open and then checks the config for what to do. Despite being disabled it takes up CPU and Program Memory.

Don't cook it in and you remove all that baggage which leaves room for more thing to operate smoothly.

But there is only so much you can remove before the device becomes useless...

So you really have to weed through all the apps you actually use and try to get rid of the rest.

IE: I recently got DCD's 3.04 pretty much the way I wanted it. I installed SPB Phone Suite as it has all the messaging notifiers, Sound Profile and even a picture Dialer in it. That made my Phone profiles OEM pointless...I'm going to reflas without it so I don't have two programs doing the same thing running in the background.

If you are dilligent in removing programs you really don't need you will see a remarkable increase in the smoothness of device operation and the screen update will not be an issue!

Actual news!

Taken from htcclassaction.org, and it's only referring to the TyTN II... but it's *something*.

All About Phones [Dutch] also reports they were told by HTC there will be a ROM update for the TyTN II. From the page (translated from Dutch to English):

Q (All About Phones): What about the driver/rom-update for the TyTN II and other pda's by HTC ?

A (Mark Moons, HTC): I can confirm we will release a ROM-update for the TyTN II this month which will solve and improve most issues. This will also be a 6.1 update so the TyTN II will be completely up to date. I cannot confirm this for other devices.

All About Phones [Dutch] also states a source close to both All About Phones and HTC claims this update will contain hardware-accelerated drivers. According to that source, HTC has finally licensed it from Qualcomm.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] chaonatic:
Looks like that update for the TyTN II has been released and has the video acceleration fix included:

http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/24/windows-mobile-6-1-update-for-htc-tytn-ii-now-extra-official/

Hopefully they'll soon correct the issue for our Titans as well.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] loddvs:
HTC confirmed that there are fixes to speed up the video, but it does NOT add hardware video acceleration.

We still don't have the driver for hardware acceleration even though the TyTN II update "addresses" the slow video problem.

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] thenewmalcolm:
I'm in the middle of using the pixel 2xl as the primary camera on a YouTube cooking show. Aside from the need for extra/adequate lighting - why shouldn't I just shoot everything in slow motion?

From what I can see the files aren't even twice as large as those shot in 1080p60. Which still makes them about 20% the size of 4k video (my math is most certainly terrible)

The kicker - is that the slow motion video when played at regular speed (I think it's 60fps) doesn't look any different than if I shot it at 1080p60 - again assuming the lighting is adequate. So with every take it seems like I get a regular and slow motion shot. I just have to render it both be ways. I thought there would be ghosting or blur but I'm not seeing any at 60fps.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] eBENdre:
I did not tested the 60 FPS for a while now but I remember the quality of the 60FPS was not so detailed.

There are a couple of videos on youtube like:

[YOUTUBE]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R3fKlWNsx7Q[/YOUTUBE]

[YOUTUBE]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Z-cgrXq_K0[/YOUTUBE]

Test if it is fits for you. Maybe some of the latest patches fixed some of the quality loss.
