Indeed, it DOES have impact on performance.

Its very easy to test. Try to lower the system apps and services and you will se that the device run slower (eg. when playing an mp3)

On TF3D its very clear the it makes it run faster/slower if you change the priority. Similar for other processes.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] bnm7bnm:
theoretically,

lets say i make manila process high priority, and run other program where priority was not changed, this program will run slower right? cause the priority goes to manila even though its in background...

so we need to set all used programs to high priority or they will run SLOWER cause the high priority set for something that's running in background...>

so the best would be high priority for program ON TOP - mean program is used now... right??

hope i make sense & some1 can explain...thanx./
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] o0ldsch00lz:
Let's say on your device you have a.exe, b.exe , c.exe and d.exe all running, but you're currently interested in using a.exe faster.

All you need to do is to increase priority to a.exe and decrease it a bit to b.exe, c.exe and d.exe -or-

Only increase the priority of a.exe and leave the rest as they were.

It doesn't matter which is the foreground window, since this uses processes directly.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Sasimi:
I think you misunderstood his point. He meant that one needs to set the process to high everytime one runs a new program or the other(older) programs will still have a higher priority.(assuming you changed them, to speed up the device)

possible issues with finalburn

Hi,

After read this thread, I installed it again the speed booster on my HTC Fuze, I followed the instructions that the page teksoftco.com has in the Demo #2 to increase the performance, also I put max priority to finalburn, I executed finalburn and I played fine, I didn't notice a major change in speed( maybe because I already have many tweaks ), that’s no new, the new thing here is that when I tried to exit finalburn( doing a click on screen and select exit from menu), my device froze and I had to soft reset. That happened 4 times.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Farmer Ted:
I've found that some apps are buggy when you jack around with their priorities. Since you're not seeing any improvement in the game, you might as well just punch the eyeball out and not monitor finalburn.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] o0ldsch00lz:
Yup, you're right, I've seen it myself.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] antoniouslj:
i'm really curious how exactly this app is emploring these changes...

but nevertheless, after boosting tmail, my texts open in exactly 1 sec every time!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] bokechukwu1:
NFS underground get buggy too so just dont increase the games but increase other apps, i also noticed that if you put it to ots highest speed that almost every aplication you boost to max if not all of them will be a bit buggy, the quick menus in manila will even pop up buggier but if you put them a notch before the highest speed then it will run excellent, believe someone mentioned it in this thread earlier if im re quoting some one my appologies
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] o0ldsch00lz:
Yes, or use the games with a less then highest priority like in the image below.

It seems it helps.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] viccyran:
Alright there are a few people with the exact same problem as I, vr24 is one that can attest..

Basically I flashed JacHero2.63slowSD and it worked, but after flashing to another hero build (non slow sd), it would get to the screen unlock.. but when i pull that screen down all I see is a loading HTC screen. It never goes beyond that!

I have two seperate SD cards that were retabled, formatted, and set up using parted from cynorecovery 1.3.1. Both of them with full wipes and reflashes with any Hero build give me the same problem. Any non hero build works fine. The only big whoops I can remember is that I downloaded and used swapper even though i had it automatically set up?

I reflashed the phone all the way back to fresh start with dreaimg.nbh to rc29, rerooted, and installed everything properly and still have the same problems.

When trying jachero 2.5 i can at least get a root access request for swapper, which i deny. Anyone have any experience with this?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lukekirstein:
Hit the back button, see if that loads up Rosie.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] viccyran:
nope :[ just stuck at htc screen. i can hit end phone call to go to screen lock again, but when i pull it down back to htc screen
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lukekirstein:
I would recommend then reformatting your SD card. Hero stores weird things on the SD card and can sometimes cause problems even between Hero builds (like in your case.) See if that works for you :]
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] viccyran:
i managed to format using both the panasonic SD tool, and tablerm on parted.. any other trhings i could do? :(
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] viccyran:
does anyone think thtis could be because of an improper flash or when i activated swapper (even though swapper was automatic on jachero doh), it wrote some corrupted files in some god forsaken place that they cant write to now?

and if so, how would i wipe it clean? i reflashed to rc29 nbut im not sure i f that did the whole job
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xenoaurora:
Ive been searching through all the guides. I updated to cynogen's recovery and have the latest radio and spl from having jf 1.51 (US version i think its crb 43 or something sorry having a brain fart).

So basically i just need to put jachero on my card and update it as update.zip and install it?

Also i noticed in some of my reading about you should have ext2 and a linux swap. Do i need to reformat that card before sending over the update.zip or after i install the update?

thanks in advance for your help and answers and great job guys i hope to understand this better so i can help contribute soon! Thanks!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supremeteam256:
If I were you I would reformat your card before applying the udpade. And you don't have to but I would make a linux-swap partition. You should really tell the difference.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xenoaurora:
Awesome i got hero finally set up with 3 partitions. I followed this guide here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=534714

and at the bottom of that he says to enable swap go to this guide:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=531988

Is this step still needed or do the roms actually do it automatically if you had a linux-swap partition when you installed.

If it helps i am running Jachero 2.63 i believe.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supremeteam256:
JACHero 2.63 will do it automatically.

I'm running cyan 3.6.5. I tried the hero rom but I liked Cyans better. However, I LOVED the visual bookmark widget on the 4th or 5th desktop.

Is that widget downloadable somewhere. The Market maybe, I coiuldnt find it but I'm not sure if I used the right search parameters. I couldnt find anything about it in xda search either.

Maybe it's d-loadable from someone in xda ?

Thanks.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alritewhadeva:
You would have to port the widget over and use Google API's instead of HTC API's. The bookmark widget is dependent on HTC's Sense/Rosie interface so it wouldn't really be possible unless you recode the bookmark widget.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danigman:
Hi all

I tried to install latest SPL (1.33.2005) on my G1

I think I tried to flash it 10 times , using 5 different guides, in all cases the outcome is the same - i receive notification that the install went kwel, but the SPL just does not install.

I'm currently running Engineering SPL - HBOOT-0.95.3000 (I thought at first that maybe I have to install HardSPL first and only then go for 1.33.2005, but based on what I found on the Net that's not required.

Also I'm using 1.3.1 CYanogenMod recovery , I've thought that I need to downgrade my recovery in order to install the SPL , and once again , found out it's not correct.

I'm flashing the bloody 26i radio every time , downloading the SPL from HAYKURO site, wiping , installing the same version after the SPL as I had before, rebooting into recovery when I should , waiting for 10 minutes before puling the battery out when it stuck on G1 screen ,you name it.

Method 1

1) Place Radio 26i on sdcard , change to update.zip , reboot in recovery , flash it , reboot back into recovery (automatic), reboot normal

2) Place SPL on sdcard , change to update.zip , reboot in recovery, flash it (it take 3 seconds and give notification that install is finished)

3) Still in recovery, remove sdcard , place sdcardN2 (with CYanogenMod rom named update.zip , like the one I had before).

4) Still in recovery, open console , reboot manually to recovery (no auto reboot, have to reboot by "reboot recovery").

4) Flash the CYanogenMod , reboot

ALL WORK, NO SPL

Method 2

1) Place Radio 26i on sdcard , change to update.zip , reboot in recovery , flash it , reboot back into recovery (automatic), reboot normal

2) Place SPL on sdcard , change to update.zip , reboot in recovery, flash it (it take 3 seconds and give notification that install is finished) , open console , reboot manually to recovery (no auto reboot).

3) Reboot normally - Stuck on G1 screen.

4) Take the battery out , remove sdcard ,place sdcard N2 (with CYanogenMod rom named update.zip , like the one I had before).

5) Return the battery , boot in recovery , flash the rom , reboot normally

ALL WORK, NO SPL

SO what can go wrong ? Any1 ? What am I missing ?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dashed:
Your sure its not installing, as in your bootloader doesnt show 1.33.2005? Or your not sure, and it just gets stuck on g1 screen every time?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danigman:
I always get to install my original version eventually , but on checking the bootloader , it show me the old SPL I had
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dashed:
BEFORE you do any of this make sure your have a PVT boar. Well why are you flashing your old bootloader? after the new spl says its complete, reboot, it will get stuck on g1 screen, I AM ALMOST positive you can pull the battery now and then put sd in with rom. Put battery back in and power on holding home to get to recovery. Flash rom and then reboot. After all of this once your rom is up and running, power on into bootloader and see if it says 1.33.2005.

Yep , tried that as well.

Got PVT , flashed SPL , rebooted into never-ending G1 screen , took the battery out , switched to sdcard with rom , placed battery back , booted in recovery , flashed rom , rebooted - all fine, rom running but still old SPL in bootloader

Darn

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danigman:
I was actually hoping to have some confirmation regarding this point , actually , from what I found on the Net it's not required , but who believes the NET ? :)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrisrj28:
When you flash the spl it should complete the flash and then you home+back to reboot. The phone should reboot and then you should see a box with an arrow. Then it will reboot again. This is where it will stick at the g1 screen. That's where you pull the battery and flash your build again. Did you see the box with the arrow?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kangoroo:
try to use the actual button rather than use trackball. like alt+s to update rather than choosing the update menu using trackball.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smurphete:
i've heard people having this problem if they are on cyna recovery. Go back to JF recovery image before flashing SPL.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goldenarmZ:
Was just about to say the same. Its been widely reported that you have to flash this spl from jf's recovery.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] henrylim:
Just my observation on this. If you get stuck on g1 screen, which I did, you can wipe your phone without reinstalling the ROM. The next reboot will take 5-10 mins, but it will boot up fine.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danigman:
Actually, I never got the box and arrow after SPL reboot (like in radio) Hmmp...

I'll try those as well ..

Thanks guys , I'll keep the post updated (10 tries and no brick yet :) )

I just flashed to jachero last night. I thought i had the most up to date spl but was getting an error. My problem was not mounting the sdcard before the push. After i did that it installed fine and im using Cya recovery.

You couldn't have installed JACHero without the latest spl, SPL: 1.33.2005
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xenoaurora:
Yes i realize.. i thought i had it.. but did not. So i had to update that first and that fixed my error so i could install JACHero. My main point was that i could push just fine in adb with Cyanogen's recovery.

Linux has the advantage of being reasonable easy to program for is “Open Source” so no licence to pay for and normally cheaper for the manufacturers to use and has quite a large following that likes to create applications/modifications for the phone.

Windows is controlled my the evil corporation Microsoft and wants your soul before you can use it….or at least some seem to think so, windows mobile has more flavours (ROMS) available on this site than Microsoft could produce for a very long time, devices never meant to run latter versions of windows mobile are now quite happily running newer software thanks to various cooks who like to improve or tweak the standard fair to produce something they think is better…some are, some aren’t.

From what you’re asking you seem to want to know what’s best, sadly the simple answer is both :)

Its more a user choice if you have certain software you want to run then check the handset can run both if not pick the one that can, there is no clear leader at the moment and as your not interested in upgrading your phone to a newer flavour your stuck with whatever the provider thinks is good.

Simple answer then look at what you like, check it runs what you want, purchase the phone ;) best of luck

So I've been trying to partition my stock 1GB sd card with the 3 partitions required: FAT32, Ext2 (or 3), and Linux Swap, but everytime I do it, my phone says the sd card is unreadable. Why is this? To get my phone to re-recognize my sd card, I have to re-format my entire sd card to new. I am able to partition it witht the first 2 partitions, but when I add the Linux Swap, I end up with the same issue. Is there something I am doing wrong? I am making the Linux Swap partition about 32mb and leaving about 2-3mb free (unallocated). I am using Wibu Linux for Windows and GParted to do the partitioning. Please help, and thanks in advance.
[G1 General] innerspace:
You could try GParted Live...

that worked for me... Be sure to make both the FAT32 and Ext2/3 partitions PRIMARY PARTITIONS.

Also, go ahead and make the first two partitions and leave enough space for a 32MB linux-swap partition but don't create it yet. Or make the partitions one at a time to see if you problem lies w/ one of the steps.

Not completely familiar with Wubi linux, seems to be an odd build to me. Try the Gparted live distro, I think you'll be pleased with the results.

Good luck!
[G1 General] lbcoder:
There is NO NEED to make a separate partition for swap. Just create an empty FILE of the size that you want and mkswap it, i.e. 'dd if=/dev/zero of=/mountpoint/swapfile count=64000; mkswap /mountpoint/swapfile' to make a 32MB swap file. Note count=64000 -- thats 64000 blocks with default block size of 512 B, 64000x512B = 32MB. Then just mount the swap as normal; 'swapon /mountpoint/swapfile'.

** There is no performance difference.

** Best to put it in your ext2 filesystem since it won't be unmounted when you want to mount the fat partition as a usbdisk.
