What do you recommend for a benchmark application? Free ones only please. This is for fun/hobby not for financial loss/gain. Other than that really just using a stopwatch and a tally on paper (HTC/load screens, fc, ect.)

I have a feeling that some already are taking this too serious, coming from the one reply and the few pms I have gotten thus far. I am only doing this to see if I can get Hero to run to MY G1, to my expectations, with the stock sd card. So please chill before you start to flame me or I will have to ignore this thread and let it die. I am only posting for entertainment purposes. I am not posting this to apply for a doctorate or a tech field position.

I will be doing one favor to test something and that will be kept between the two of us. Knowing some of the ins and outs about tweaking and such I will be doing so when I find the need/desire and that will come later.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
I use Benchmark Pi (which screws up your auto-rotate) and another app called benchmark.

I can get about 11.7 seconds on Benchmark Pi using xROM with my settings. I have some top50 times on the Benchmark Pi website. If you took out all of the duplicates from people who try to fill up the list with their name I probably have some in the top 15. And thats with all of my apps, widgets, etc loaded and running.

The other tool gives you a lot more data and is more scientific but it is harder to compare the values. I use them both for different things.
[G1 Android Development] poe11371:
Mike you are my new baxf (best android-xda friend) ... sorry too cheesy? Thanks for the recommendations. Will dl those now and run test later.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
I'm always happy to help out. I've done a TON of benchmarking and testing on this stuff. I'm happy to share info with those who want it. I respect people trying to learn. People who pretend like they know what they are talking about and are really making stuff up are another story.

swap_free_notify can't be implemented until we hand merge the swapfile.c in /kernel/mm

sorry, I saw you posting on the compcache thread. hahaha
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
What? I'm lost. I'm not trying to implement swap free notify. I just want backing swap with swap file. Although it would be cool. Let me know if you want me to test it when you get it compiled.
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
No I know, this thread is just related to compcache, and I had just read your posts, and wanted to make the point - however ambiguous - that compcache isn't going to be as balls to the walls good until we can get the swap_free_notify correct. Something Cyanogen did.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
Ok, that makes sense now. I think JAC is working on getting that working. So hopefully it won't be too long.
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
Yea he is, we are both working on it. I am, at this very moment, actually.

I have a Sprint Touch Diamond, and forgot to lock my phone before putting it in my pocket. Now I have one of the blank "Contact Favourite Silhouette" pictures as my background instead of the all black background.

I have no idea how to change it back to normal. Can someone help. (I think I have tried all the obvious places.)

Thanks in Advance.

How do I extract *.reg files to use with sashimi and UC? Thanks in advance.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] stylez:
With a reg editor Resco etc :D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] xlinkx:

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] drkfngthdragnlrd:
CERegistryEditor,

download here

, you can export/import & edit registry from your PC. Make sure to change the save as extention on exporting. It is defaulted to .cereg.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DeVisible:
You can also export .reg-files with Total Commander. Just go to the desired key, select 'Copy' and 'Paste' it on your filesystem to save the key to the desired location.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] claus1953:
As you are using SASHIMI, there is a registry editor just inside the programs folder of SASHIMI, and you can use it to import/export any registry, whole key, or single string or dword.

[Touch Pro CDMA] MOBGangsta184:
There aren't any roms for CDMA Touch Pro 2 because it wasn't been unlocked. There won't be any roms until the unlocked is released.
[Touch Pro CDMA] theclerk74:
I believe it's unlocked now, thanks to the Telus TP2 being released. Mighty said he is working on a CDMA TP2 rom as well.
[Touch Pro CDMA] Hypeo:
I believe there are ROM's available ready to be deployed as soon as the HSPL is ready for the CDMA version of the TP2. Currently only the GSM version has been unlocked. It can't be much longer.

Hello,

I create a totally OEM Kitchen based on the latest Visual Kitchen.

Inside you will find a kitchen ready to go for you with 21839 RHODIUM 6.5 Official Test ROM.

There are plenty of how to guides on the net so please look around before you start asking questions.

I only put this together cause it was a by product of me redoing my own Kitchen and thought it would be good for someone who is just learning.

Thanks!

Upload will be done in 15 mintes from 19:15

Download Kitchen RHODIUM 21839 6.5 HTC Test ROM

PS. Dont complain you have to click 2 times to begin download. You are getting a dedicated server with no nasty pop ups or wait period.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Cal-El:
Very, very nice, I will try it out and let you know if I find any bugs! :p
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] smaberg:
It would be great if u could upload the best xip!!! the 23016 and 23017 for the kitchen! and maybe the sys to go with it? just as an addon for original kitchen :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] At0mAng:
It is not just an add on...you have to manually place the SYS folders into the right file structure. And then port the XIP.

This is a good kitchen for someone who is learning and provides a good base.

End user can do the porting and manually transfer SYS folder. You know that saying...Teach a man to fish...

If I had the time I would do it but I don't...

Prefered users of my ROM and my V1 Kitchen when it becomes available will have the latest already setup for them :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] smaberg:
ok just a thought i had! and yes its a good base, good work bro!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] At0mAng:
I will when I have more time...I have to finish my ROM. I had this because I needed a couple of packages for it. So once I dumped it the kitchen was made :D

Hardly any work at all...

Thanks!

Thats a old ROM Bob. 21839 is the first unofficial but official shipped ROM. I have this kitchen somewhere...

Just dump that ROM using ervius kitchen, and you will get this...;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] b16b:
is 2 test rom.. the old one (all have it that)

and the new one with manila 2.1 1919 and many more new packages.. and i think new drivers..
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] takeda240:
duno if anyones had this problem yet but my phone keeps popping up asking what time zone even tho ive set it many times. ive hit done clear and ok but it doesnt matter .. this becomes a problem when your in the middle of taking a video or responding to an emial or whatever and it pops up randomly. .. ive searched but im not getting relavent results .. any help is appreciated :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] mx185sw:
Time zone popup

I am having the same issue... was not happening on stock ROM but have had the issue with the 2.5 manilla on multiple roms.. the current rom i have only pops up once in a while.. but previous roms were having the popup every few seconds.. would like to know if anyone has figured the issue out also...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] ai6908:
I think its an issue with Manilla 2.5. Thats why I have that feature disabled.

Are you guys using TP2 in T-Mobile service? I am using TP2 in AT&T, I thought maybe that was the issue! But I guess its the compatibility!;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] takeda240:
yeah its on tmobile for me tmobile branded as well... does it in all roms it sems very annying i was doing a recording and it popped up stopping my record same with video .. NOT GOOD.. hope someone who knows an answer will respond :) cus im surprised anyone did at all at this point
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] someeh:
It has to do with the bands, if you are on 3g and lose 3g service it switches to edge which brings up the time zone pop up... it's very annoying.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] takeda240:
ok well that kinda makes sense its nice to have a reason for its stupidity lol ... so why isnt there a fix ? the kaiser and mogul never did that.. the only thing ive sen was a rom i tried that had in the changelog something about time zone fix or whatever but it still happened on that rom too
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] hcheng158:
This also seems to occur quite often after locking my phone and unlocking it with the pin number. Makes sense after reading this topic why the time zone selection appears after you unlock it. If someone can create a cab fix for this, it would be most appreciated! Thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] nickf123654:
I am having the same problem. I tried to ignore it but it is getting kind of annoying. I have flashed about 6 different ROMs in the past week and it is happening with all of them. After finding this thread, I tried to make some changes to see if I could get the Time Zone settings to stop popping up and may have fixed it. I noticed that under "Items" in the "Today" settings, HTC Home was selected in addition to TouchFLO 3D. I disabled HTC Home and have not noticed the Time Zone settings pop up since then. If someone else can try this, we may be able to confirm this as a fix for the Time Zone pop ups.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] someeh:
If you go into settings>personal>phone> time zones that should fix the problem. I've done it on all my flashes and it works.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] t69broken:
OMG

someeh

been looking everywhere for this fix thank you much!!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] nickf123654:
It has been over 4 hours and I have not gotten a Time Zone pop up... Has anyone else tried disabling HTC Home? If so, please post your results.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] t69broken:
Since my last post I disabled auto update of timezone and still haven't had one. I was going to flash a different rom because of this, THANKS FOR THE ADVICE!!

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] xyzulu:
A good place to start: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Sapphire_Hacking

However, it sounds like you need to do some reading, as well as evaluating if you have the skills required to learn and master sucessfully 'hacking' your own phone.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] kidrobot978:
Thanks for the info and I kinda did all that reading I just get stuck and Wen I try to push they don't go thru says syntx erroor I just need a lil info on how to
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Cheesebaron:
syntax of adb is:

adb [path to source file] [path to destination on phone]

paths can not have spaces otherwise use "" around the path or use \ before spaces.

Is there anyway to modify the size of the photo widget, or is there an app that does this already in the market? I would really like a 4x2 or a 4x4 sized version.
[G1 Apps and Games] david1171:
if it is like the analog clock widget, then maybe the size of the image could be increased to occupy a bigger space. if you know how to sign update.zip's then you could try that
[G1 Apps and Games] keyz86:
i would also be really interested in this, have tried many apps on the market but all take up the same space as the stock app :(

I've been lurking on these forums for years, don't really post much, but thought this was necessary.

Why on Earth (LOL) has Google not released Google Earth for Android. Spent most of tonight looking and no clues to when it will be released either. iPhone app came out ages ago now, i used to have it and it was amazing. Why haven't they released it on their own system?

If anyone has news let me know.

Maybe a petition is in order?
[G1 Apps and Games] AGx-07_162:
My guess would be that the only two mainstream "Google Experience" phones on the market aren't capable of handling such an app with the quality Google would like to bring with their products. Speaking strictly on hardware, the iPhone is a much more powerful device and can much better handle it. Now, I've never used it on an iPhone. I'm an apple hater but I wont deny its a great device (hardware wise). Perhaps when the Galaxy, Hero, One or whatever Sony is cooking gets around we'll see it. I'm sure they're working on it. Maps is nice but when I look at how beautifully the G.Maps app on the iPhone works I cant help but believe Google is planning to top it. I mean, Android is their baby. Of course you want only the best for your child. Right?

[G1 Apps and Games] jokersax11:
not to nit pick but the 1st and 2nd iphone were slower than the g1 by a long shot only the iphone 3gs is slightly faster. the reason actually comes from android not having native java(davilk instread) progress is being made and the g1 is more than capable however designing an overall system for multiple devices cost alot of money and google is very smart in investing hince why they went free with java first during the startup period. google earth is java and require native java. a smarter decision would be to set up an opengl google earth(nicer, faster, etc) so since it doesnt exist i believe it will soon. but just wait till you see what they have in maps. 4.0
[G1 Apps and Games] Ohsaka:
Yeah, I laugh when the people at my work who dropped a few c-notes on 1) an iphone, 2) an iphone 3g, 3) an iphone 3gs like to talk smack about my 1st gen phone. All we need is more ram and better graphics acceleration. I'm sure that will be a part of the 2nd/3rd gen phones...
[G1 Apps and Games] jokersax11:
well it is there. the hardware works and well. many phones by htc have more hardware than being used. just look at the mogul. it shipped without hardware acceleration or gps at all. and because of the work from the community and pressure from customers sprint enabled gps. hardware wise the g1 blows the iphone out of the water( the reason 3gs got released.) its known as the new hardware syndrome. when you push hardware out asap things tend to not work. nvidia and ati ring a bell.
[G1 Apps and Games] coolbho3000:
Performance issues in Android are an issue with the Dalvik Virtual Machine, not its hardware. Native code on the first gen iPhone runs many times faster.
[G1 Apps and Games] jokersax11:
My point exactly.
[G1 Apps and Games] IIIIkoolaidIIII:
My whole point in starting the thread was becuase I knew the hardware was similar. I didn't realise there was no Java implimentationn within Andoid. Let's hope Google implements it in Donut/Eclaire.
[G1 Apps and Games] lbcoder:
There is some stupid crap being brought up in this thread.

1) Android apps *ARE* java running on google's own java VM called "dalvik".

2) Google earth is *not* java.

3) iphone does NOT support java.

4) HTC dream, magic, hero ALL HAVE THE SAME hardware where it really counts. There are minor variations in memory, etc.

5) applephone CPU *IS* more powerful than the CPU in dream/magic/hero... 600 MHz vs 528 MHz. Not significantly though.

The reason why googleearth is not on android (yet) is probably some combination of the following;

1) They have their priorities straight -- keep developing the OS rather than just adding useless bling.

2) Use of recently released NDK rather than writing a slow java app.
[G1 Apps and Games] bbuchacher:
hahahah as soo as the i word is mentioned the thread always takes off on how the iphone sucks hahaha I <3 all you guys lol
[G1 Apps and Games] brummiesteven:
Hate to sound like an idiot but isn't Google Earth just Google Maps in Satellite view anyway?
[G1 Apps and Games] IIIIkoolaidIIII:
Google Earth is not just bling. It has so much user generated content that is highly useful and would be a perfect tool to use for an augmented reality app.

I have always found it a very useful tool, especially with GPS integration.
[G1 Apps and Games] jubeh:
isn't google maps exactly the same thing? :rolleyes:
[G1 Apps and Games] cedricberger:
Google Map is in 2D, Google earth is in 3D
[G1 Apps and Games] Luca_Dream:
lol

^^ REALLY?
[G1 Apps and Games] IIIIkoolaidIIII:
I hadn't realised that Google had brought support for kml and kmz files to google maps. Essentially making them very simillar products appart from the the 3rd dimension that Google Earth has. Maybe it is less necessary to bring Earth to Android at this time.
[G1 Apps and Games] AGx-07_162:
I never thought the iPhone sucked. When it came out I thought it was a good looking device. Hardware is decent and it runs smoothly. I just simply abhor the OS running on it and Apple in general for that matter.
[G1 Apps and Games] cedricberger:

Now I'm contemplating om sending the phone in for a new cover or new phone:( I really don't want to...my main concern is that I'll get a new phone with dead pixels and/or (heaven forbid!!) screen gap problem. So what would you guys do?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] TheBrit:
It should not be flimsy. It is a bit flexible thoough. You obviously have a faulty one.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] tatwamasi:
If the actual phone is ok, I'd definitely hang onto it, there's enough hardware problems out there!

I'd contact HTC and ask them if they can send a replacement cover out to you first.
