You're right.

I'll test it under pure WM and check the registry while toggling on opr off : maybe I'll be able to detect what keys to change to get the same results directly, and possibly make a CHT widget. :)

Edit :

Found this one here :

http://wiki.modaco.com/index.php/Samsung_i600

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\GPS Intermediate Driver]

"IsEnabled"=DWORD:00000001

-> change to 0 to toggle off ?

I'll check if it works... And if it actually saves battery life. :)

A Possible Work Around

I could not get the app from the link above to work on my HD2. It said it installed successfully, but I could find no exe or shortcut for it anywhere on my HD2. I searched a couple of app forums here and found nothing else.

Here is a possible solution although it is not a one-click solution like most toggles. It is based on this post:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=645916

Using a text editor, paste this into a new file:

30#ctlpnl.exe AGPSSettingsCPL.cpl - location services settings

Save the file with the name such as GPS Toggle.lnk (that's a small "L" in lnk).

Copy the shortcut file to the Windows/Start Menu/Programs folder. From there you can access it using the Start button/menu. Also, depending on the UI, you may be able to create a button on your main screen. I have Co0kie's Home Tab which provides the ability to create buttons on the home screen. (Co0kie's Home Tab has a number of toggle switches, but not one for GPS.)

This shortcut will bring up the Location screen from Settings. This may or may not be what you want. To be honest, I could not find a place that says "turn on/off GPS."
[HD2 General] Z80-Man:
AGPS only allows to use available data network to update the satellites positions database in order to speed up satellites location.

It should have nothing to do with having the GPS receiver actually turned on or off...

In fact, it's turned off on my HD2, and I'm still able to use the GPS. ;)

I'm currently trying to evaluate the effect the above registry value change has on battery lifetime...

Edit :

OK, at least your post put me on a track :

The registry tweak actually switches on or off the "Automatic GPS management" checkbox in the "Access" panel from the "External GPS" applet in WM "System" settings.

You can still use a shortcut as the one you posted, but it should contain 25#ctlpnl.exe cplmain.cpl,25,2 instead (GPS settings - Access).

Now the registry trick has strictly the same effect, and can be made out of a simple MortScript - then a CHT switch, too.

The only problem is I couldn't notice a better battery consumption, actually... :p

[General Questions and Answers] Greywolf_Ghost:
Ignor........Got it working.

Firstly I hope I have put this in the right section......as I am asking how to.

I just found out about this nifty little app for WinMo over on smartphone freeware site ( adding a link to a youtube review, if you hadn't seen )

LightCommunicator review

Ok so I have an Audiovox SMT5600 running Aluet's 6.1, and the app installed to SD, but at main app menu it just seems dead. There is a checkbox which can be checked and unchecked, however when I pick any option from the softkeys nothing happens.

I doubt it's a low memory issue as apps that hit low memory close/crash with a debug screen.

Am I missing a runtime/or required file that I am not aware of? Should I look into a reg setting?

Can anyone shed some light on how I should go about getting this app to work??

I will also add a screen shot to show where I am stuck...as you will see it is not for a 176x220 screen but does open, and I would love to have this app work if there is any chance.

Many thanks in advance to any help offered!!!!!!!

I can't say i'm suprised, you cannot read my post as it has been removed, I was highlighting their statement on their website (below) and the disparity between this and there constant failed promises, setbacks and general user disapointments with coreplayer Version 2.

"Forward Thinking

Our history is not to sit idle with current or aging technologies that don't work as they should. We like to extend ourselves and 'create', with the future in mind."

I am not saying they havent updated coreplayer v1, there have been updates, this is about coreplayer v2, my main gripe with this was that I bought this after a post made by BetaBoy advising V2 was iminent, suggestions were also made at the time the MSM chipsets would be supported soon, this didnt pan out either.

I'm expecting a load of Coreplayer fan boys to go off one here so fill your boots chaps and give it your best shot.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paulobrien:
I've just posted a new Beta of my MoDaCo Custom ROM here with 128MB Compcache by default.

I'm interested to hear thoughts on whether it's going to be worthwhile!

The RAM use on my N1 is always near 100%, and with the CC enabled, I see it being used...

I'm no Compcache expert, so i'm interested to hear what others think...?

P
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] juanjux:
The best thing about the Nexus One is how fast it goes, and the RAM that allows to have lots of programs at the same time. For example, my browser almost never need to rechargue the page after using gmail or some other app and then returning to the browser, while my G1 does it almost always.

Sometimes I use advanced task manager to kill all apps and it does kill 15-19 apps! On the G1 it never killed more than 4-8.

So, I don't think this is really needed on the Nexus, if it improves things even more, cool, but I would dedicate your developer efforts to other things.

Sorry for my non-native english.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GlenH:
Off topic, but your "non-native english" is a lot better that that of many native speakers! :)

Back on topic, I' sure it would get used, since Android will keep filling RAM until it needs to clear some down (correct me if I'm wrong here), but as for whether it's needed? I'm not so sure. The Nexus seems to cope with keeping pretty much all the apps / data I am generally using in memory no problem (as juan says above 15+ apps no problem).
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] melterx12:
I dont think any form of A2SD, CC, or Swap is needed on the N1. It has more than enough RAM, and keep in mind that not all of it is unlocked yet! 100-200MB more RAM will be unlocked when Google fixes the kernel and sends out an update (or maybe cyanogen will implement it into his ROM?)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miketaylor00:
Compcache will probably help a little. The configuration is going to be key. DO NOT USE backing swap with it. If I wasn't getting my N1 replaced, for the second time, for dust under the screen I would do some benchmarking for you and give you actual numbers. Maybe when I get my new one and unlock it I will spend some time on it.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zambezy:
with the 1G CPU CompCache should not slow down the UI. For heavy use it should help...

I think that Linux Swap would be nice too since it could unload some of the memory that is not used on to it. If we set swappiness at 0-30 it would hardy use it but instead of dumping the processed data it would just cache it on the swap partition.

I guess the only way to say what works would be to do some testing and see.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enomther:
hey man ... I've already experimented a little myself with cc.

In my experience for the "android experience" on nexus1 (and considering how android will always try to grab what you throw at it) ... there could be some minimal improvements when utilizing it.

What I've seen thus far ...

In order to leverage cc without a significant performance impact ... changing the way the CPU performs CPU frequency samping/scaling is something that should be addressed in concert. Unfortunately we then begin to encroach on the battery draining issues. :(

With some minimal tweaking, cc can add a *huge* amount of available RAM.

But in the end .. I think for the typical user the benefit will be minimal.

However, for me personally ... (just for fun) ... I ran a test debian linux distro loaded up with Xorg+WindowMaker (my lightweight favorite combo) ... and the increased RAM made a significant difference. I *almost* had a fullly functional linux desktop in my hand!! Was quite neat compared to the old days of trying the same on g1.

Anyhow, just my 2 cents for now on the matter ... I'm still toying with these implementations myself. If I have anything more to add later that has significance I will.

Please enomther, can u share with us your debian distro ready to run under the N1?

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enomther:
It's a chroot'd environment/setup ... running of ext3 on the sdcard ... (still too big for the NAND) ...

Then I run Xorg through a localvnc script setup ... I then use a android VNC app from the Market to vnc into it and control it.

Still interested?

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Driskol:
Yes of course, i have a thread ready on arch forums but i want to try first debian and see how much stable and functional can be on the n1.

If u can use it like a desktop really, then arch, must be almost 3 times faster deleting packages, daemons, etc...

Im a newbe on linux of course, but i can try it with help :)

Here is the project: http://www.archmobile.org/trac/wiki/AM/Installation/Guide

Im using arch for 1 year and im really happy with it, beats ubuntu hard! hehe
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enomther:
Disclaimer: It's *almost* as functional as a desktop ;)

Limited by the android vnc client of course. When running with Xorg the resources are juiced (thus the need for compcahe, and why I posted it ... slight relevance) ... but sure ... I need to set one up from scratch for arm (as mine are riddled with custom data/packages) ... and I put something up for you. I'll PM you about it ... give me a couple/few days (got a big weekend comin up).

Neat project btw .. I'm definitely going to pull it down, check it out and play! :)

By now, i just have a 500mb ext3 partition on my sdcard, with the base system of archmobile ready :)

As i said, im newbe, and now i need to know how can i boot it hehe
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xkonni:
never tried it on android, but the usual way is to mount-bind /proc, /sys, /dev from the running android into the new root and then just chroot into the new system.

like

mount -o bind /dev /sdcard/arch/dev

... /proc

... /dev

chroot /sdcard/arch

then you can start services like vnc.

i doubt that arch will be so much faster though.

don't get this wrong, i used arch for over a year and really like its concept. but in the end when you compare fully customized installations of arch and for example ubuntu, the speed difference is rather minimal.

(with focus on customized, meaning on arch you install what you want and on ubuntu you remove what you do not want ;) )
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Driskol:
Thansk xkonnim i'll try to give it a shot ;)

enomther, how you boot the debian?

I men if you are using it natively trought fastboot or a img from the sdcard partition ?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Driskol:
Hi dude again :P

Finally i got chroot on my arch partition :)

I have it under /system/sd

and i have the minimal bash working :)

Now, its time to get it more deepper hehe

EDIT: Now i can start the sshd daemon and try to login into with ssh BUT i can't change the sudo pass with passwd cuz says Not enough permisions. Also, i cant find the damn it sudo binary...

I have the USBNetwork working by default on eth0, but that's all i can do cuz i can't start too the bash.

Any hint? :)

Bye!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xkonni:
well those steps are similar to a regular arch install, what exactly is your problem? no sudo in package sources? can't run visudo? you have a root account, just use it instead of a user account for now ;)

i would like to change the word 'slide' on the lockscreen to my own name.

does someone know how i to do that?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] drkfngthdragnlrd:
It is a Text value in the Lockscreen CPR's. The CPR's are a XML layout file. Open them with any text editor like notepad/wordpad/etc... The files are found in \Windows\ or \Windows\Lockscreen\. They are named LS_LockScene_480x800.cpr & LS_LockScene_800x480.cpr or htc_LS_LockScene_480x800.cpr & htc_LS_LockScene_800x480.cpr.

Find these lines of code;

<Text ID="TapOrSlide" Top="90" Width="800" Height="34" FontFamily="Tahoma" FontSize="9" Wrap="False" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Middle" InnerTextType="Resource" Text="shellresapps.dll,18150">
<TextStage TextOffsetType="TextOffsetDropBottomRight" Color="#00000000" TextOffset="1" BlurFactor="3" Alpha="1.0"/>
<TextStage TextOffsetType="TextOffsetNone" Color="#FFFFFFFF"/>
</Text>
<Text ID="SlideToUnlock" Top="90" Width="800" Height="34" FontFamily="Tahoma" FontSize="9" Wrap="False" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Middle" InnerTextType="Resource" Text="shellresapps.dll,18149">
<TextStage TextOffsetType="TextOffsetDropBottomRight" Color="#00000000" TextOffset="1" BlurFactor="3" Alpha="1.0"/>
<TextStage TextOffsetType="TextOffsetNone" Color="#FFFFFFFF"/>
</Text>

Delete InnerTextType="Resource" from both entries & change what's in the " after Text= to what ever you want.

Note: there are 2 seperate Text entries you see there. One is for the "Slide" text when you have no Notifications & the other is for when you have Notifications.

Using the Cameron Sino extended battery i was hardly able to get any fix at all, and if, it took me several minutes (standing still). While driving it was nearly impossible to get a fix. The trick with the aluminum foil did not work (also the whole HTC GPS Tool stuff with waiting for fix , the reboot, fix again, restart... did not work) .

Then i changed to Radio Version Radio 1.17.25.09 from:

and used the HTC GPS Tool for cold start/clear memory - unbelievable : INSTANT fix (under 5 Seconds) also while driving. GPS works flawlessly now.

BTW i also played around and wrapped antistatic plastic foil (the stuff electronic parts get deliverd in) around the battery (leaving the contacts free), but did not notice any improvement with my old radio version (1.11.25.1).

But never change a winning team so the foil stays in.
