Very interesting ;)

My minfree: 1536,2048,4096,5120,15360,23040 (compcache disabled)

The system is very fluid and responsive. I dont know if this is by the tweak or compcache, but I see in EStrong Task Manager just the necesary process, no more empty process and more space for hidden process, second. :)

Very curious.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] androcheck:
@adwinp: Ok, i thought already about this. I will try when I have some time. Thanks for the info. :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Xfight:
Great Post !!

I try this for 12h

# echo "1536,2048,4096,5120,15360,23040" > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree

with compcache active and MCR 3.1 and hero has an incredible boost ! Apps load more quickly and fluidity is improved very well and i don't use anymore any "killall" app.

Background service also works perfectly.

Without this tweak, i noted random delay when many apps are loaded.

There is a way for disable compcache in MCR ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] androcheck:
@Xfight: Glad to see, I could help you. :)

Regarding compcache: I disabled it (for testing) on MCR by commenting out the line

/system/xbin/insmod /system/lib/modules/ramzswap.ko disksize_kb=XXXXX

in "/system/init.d/ramzswap.sh"

Or just temporarily (until next restart):

# swapoff /dev/block/ramzswap0
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] khunjj:
So exciting to hear this :) Anyway, I am some kind of new in linux programing. Would help a lot, if there is a step by step to add the command to the startup script /system/init.d/ramzswap.sh ;) Do I have to go to recovery mode to do so? And use which application or just normal text editor to edit the script?

Thnks,

Hello,

I've the same problem : see my post on another older thread : on huge font size in HTC messenger SMS.

I'm with 1.48 ROM too...

I tried a lot of things :

- value in registry for font size,

- font size in parameters,

- reinstall my tuning cabs,

- soft reset...

with no luck !
[HD2 General] G-ThGraf:
Yeah I ever try it before i'm posting... And i look registry and i change the font size but no luck.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] makaveli1406:
Hello XDA, I have a following question:

- to introduce my situation: I have czech vodafone branded 32A HTC Magic and HTC doesn't provide these devices with updates

- I downloaded official ROM upgrade with HTC Sense for HTC Magic from this site (using other S/N): "http://www.htc.com/hk-en/supportdownloadlist.aspx?p_id=267&act=sd&cat=all"

- It's the file "_HTC Magic_RUU_Sapphire_SMC_Voda_WWE_3.03.990.6_release_signed_NoDriver.exe"

- If I run the wizard it won't work because of S/N checking and CZ Vodafone branded device, as written above

- However when you run the wizard, the folder with name similar to {XXXX-XXXX-XXXX} is created in the temp folder (C:\WINDOWS\TEMP)

- This folder belongs to this RUU wizard and contains also these two files "ROM.ZIP" and "ROM1.ZIP"

- these archives contain following files:

===ROM.ZIP===

android-info.txt

boot_special.img

hboot_7200A_1.76.0007_090804.nb0

radio.img

===ROM.ZIP===

===ROM1.ZIP===

android-info.txt

boot.img

recovery.img

splash1_HTC_Magic.nb0

system.img

userdata.img

===ROM1.ZIP===

My questions follow:

1. Would it be possible to flash rom using these files?

2. What would be the procedure then?

3. Do I need to flash radio and SPL to versions from the archive ROM.ZIP and have perfected SPL? Or can I flash the radio to 6.35 and SPL to 1.76.2007?

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] swissp:
1. Yes

2. See this post

3. Don't install the SPL from the update but the 1.76.2007

(4. Be careful.)

:)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] makaveli1406:
Thanks swissp.

One more question about the radio.

Does it have to be exactly the version "6.35.08.29" - like it is written in the blog of the post from your step 2 - Make sure the radio 6.35.08.29 and SPL 1.76.2007.

Or can I use 6.35.10.18 Radio and 1.76.2007 SPL? From this post.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] 5[Strogino]:
As you want. You can select first, test it for one day, then flash second and test again.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mnasirmshukor:
Recently i downloaded : [RUU][32A][CONTAIN SU] 3.04.401.2 Official RUU Sapphire HTC Europe AT test signed

This RUU wizard may run smoothly. Since i intend to root my HTC Magic, then i need to copy the "rom1.zip" file to my gold card.

HOWEVER, while running the wizard, no "temporary" file found in my temp folder. Does anybody have any idea why it's happen.

btw i did test with another PC, it's also the same. No temporary file name "rom1.zip" found.

[G1 Android Development] zuenaerox:
Hello everyone,

I'm not new to this forum, i have used it for many years now. Yet i have never made any contribution to the community.

I was fiddling with my G1 again when i found out my rom folder was a complete mess filled with update.zip packages, roms i didn't even know i downloaded. So i though, hey lets develop an application to manage all my roms and radio's with a quick button to upload a rom or radio to my g1.

Something like this:

Sorry i could not post a link, it's restricted. My account is still blocked for that. Admin??

I wonder if anyone would be interested in such an application? And if you are interested could you come up with suggestions to make it better/ help me debugging (i'm a student, i don't have a lot of spare time).

If anyone is interested i will seriously think about further developing this app,

it's now in pre-pre-alpha stage or so ;).

Greetings from holland.
[G1 Android Development] jmhecker:
First off, I am not sure if this is in the right section...perhaps putting it under General might be a better option, as it does not have to do specifically with developing a ROM.

Secondly, the idea seems promising. I am not fluent with ADB, but if you can flash roms with it (IE: boot the phone into recovery, and use adb to flash the rom), then yeah, I think it would be a great idea. And again, depending on what ADB can do, haev it control nandroid/bart as well for backing up and restoring. I know ADB has the shell command, so if you can use stdin/stdout to read/write to that shell prompt, it would be feasible.

But that is forcing every user to go ahead and keep a db of the ROMs they download...perhaps using an external host to manage the images (keep a listing, changelogs, etc) of the individual roms would be an idea...then you can have the application pull roms directly from that repo. This, of course, would require you to manage the remote repository and keep it up to date.

Thats my $0.02
[G1 Android Development] Bavilo:
This is

[G1 Android Development] jmhecker:
Thats why I said "I'm not sure"...I stand corrected though.
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
If we want to get technical, this is Htc Dream (G1) Android Development. If we want to be nitpicky this should be in Android development unless it is only for the Dream (G1) and will not work for any other Android phone, which I doubt. But who's being nitpicky anyway?
[G1 Android Development] jmhecker:
First off, I love the last line of your signature...classic :)

I just know that the mods and certain 'Senior Members' like to trash talk about threads in the wrong section, rather than simply stating that it would be more appropriate elsewhere. I was just trying to stop the bashing before it started, heh.

This thread is getting sidetracked though. I do think that the idea is a good one, whether it be strictly for G1, or across the board for all Android devices.
[G1 Android Development] zuenaerox:
Sorry...

Sorry for posting this in the wrong section, i thought it should be in this section becouse it involves rom's.

Putting up a rom repo, would involve PHP and Mysql(a large one, saving all roms and radio's).

I would be very interested starting this project. I could use some help however. I don't mind building such a repo, but the content should be community managed.

I think android is going to be the mobile future so building such a repo would pay off since we're getting more and more rom's. Ill experiment with php and mysql tonight. I don't have a host, i run it locally.

Maybe someone with mysql/ bandwith to spare?

greetings
[G1 Android Development] jmhecker:
It wouldn't necessarily have to be done with MySQL/SQLite/etc...XML would work just as well, but can be a bit more tricky to manage. SQL probably would be the better option now that I think about it.

This idea would have 2 parts to it then, correct? The backend (database hosted online somewhere), and the frontend for the user desktop.

As far as the bandwidth required, there are plenty of places on the net that are geared towards hosting of open source projects...perhaps you could use one of their offerings.
[G1 Android Development] zuenaerox:
The idea first involved a client managed application only. However the idea in the other post about a web based repo liked me better :D. Ill try to develop a simple web application to add rom's,track changes. I will try to put a test application online tomorrow.

I hope this repo will be used and managed. I like this forum very much and the community could not live without it. This repo would absolutely be and addition to xda!

Using the repo, you could view all available rom's, installation instructions, track changes.

Check the thread tomorrow. Ill try to upload an example ;)

Have a nice day
[G1 Android Development] jmhecker:
I think anything is better than what we have now: Threads scattered all over the place with new ROMs getting posted. We need something more centralized.

Well thank you for your kind reply...:(

@jmhecker

I've put together a quick php,mysql script on a temporary host. It's not possible to add roms. But you can view rom information in an organized way.

This is just an example of what is possible. Never mind the layout.

Its just a quick preview.

[G1 Android Development] gitanojr:
Great idea!!!

im not a developer, but im a flashaholic he he, cant wait for this info....
[G1 Android Development] jmhecker:
The one thing to think about with this is when you allw people to add/update/delete their roms. You will have to have some sort of permission system in place that would prevent UserA from deleting a ROM that was created and uploaded by UserB.

Also, this creates another login/password that the rom creators need to remember.
[G1 Android Development] zuenaerox:
Yeah i thougt about that, unfortunatly we live in a world where you can't trust people. So yes i need to build an user auth system :(

This was just preview :)

I'm going to bed now, ill be working on it tomorrow

@Broncosis

Thank you for your reply!!!!

Thanks in advance for helping get this project off the ground !!

[G1 Android Development] jmhecker:
If I may make a suggestion: When you are working on the frontend (what the users (not devs) will see, code it using proper XHTML standards, and utilize classes from within your CSS. The reason I say that is I would be willing to make a desktop application that would scrape your webpage at load, and obtain the ROM categories, rom information, download links, etc, and the user would then be able to simply choose a ROM from the application, which in turn would download it, and create a nandroid backup of the phone, move the ROM over, and flash it, without any user interaction. (thats assuming I can work out a few of the troubles I am running into with ADB and Fastboot)
[G1 Android Development] maxawesome:
You may want to partner with the guy who built Droid Explorer. This sounds like a natural extension to that tool (if it's not already baked in). I know you can push things like APKs to the phone from Droid Explorer.
[G1 Android Development] jmhecker:
Do we know who it was that created Droid Explorer? I would love to be able to improve upon what he has already done.
[G1 Android Development] zuenaerox:
Done !

Hey everyone,

I'm glad to announce that the rom tool is finished ;) i'm working off the rough edges but it works.

The host is very slow, and then i mean VERY slow :(. So if someone could please host it on a good server with enough storage, you would shurely contribute to the community !!

Check it out here:

androidrepo.zxq.net/

Ill try to translate the index page to XHTML so a desktop app can be created :)

greetings. PM me if you want a login !
[G1 Android Development] jmhecker:
Glad to see progress is being made...I would recommend some work on making it more aesthetically pleasing. (IE: pretty it up, heh)

Keep in mind, getting the dev's to jump on board right away is going to be next to impossible. You might need to populate this yourself to start off with, and hope the dev's jump onboard if it starts to show potential.
[G1 Android Development] zuenaerox:
yes, i was thinking about that to,

When i'm completely finished and have a decent host, ill start mailing/pm all leading rom dev's.

Maybe that's a start ;)

Starting with xhtml and looks tonight :)

I won't make a register page. If a dev want's a place ill create them. This keeps it a bit more safe, for the server(large file uploads) and for the users(not working/viral roms).
[G1 Android Development] zuenaerox:
Thank you, im converting to xhtml now.

The idea to make it available for different phone models is ok but requires a lot of recoding. It will take a while ;)

Ill be working on it.

Maybe you could create an image with a concept layout?
[G1 Android Development] jmhecker:
Like oyu, I suck at creating the front end of things. The only thing I can recommend is play around with the look, and make it easy to navigate. Less clicks is better, and you do not want to flood the user with information.
[G1 Android Development] zuenaerox:
The page is now xhtml transitional passed :D however the layout is now ****ed :P.

If i use dropdown boxes how will you fetch the data with your application?
[G1 Android Development] jmhecker:
I will be able to parse the data from within the drop down. Remember, I am scraping the code, not just what appears on the screen at any given time.

Okay, so my Mytouch is bricked, and I'm trying to figure out if theres a way to unbrick it and while messing with the phone I do this:

While the phone is off, when holding down the "Action" key then pressing the "Power" key, the led illuminates blue. The screen does nothing!

So, I don't know if something else happens to a perfectly normal working MT3G/Hero but I thought I would share and ask if there are any other key combination besides the regular fastboot presses.

Is there a list or does anyone know all the possible combinations and what they do?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] awatt:
I'm in the same boat as you, but I've tried every combination possible and nothing. The only thing I can say is after about 3 hours on a charger the charging light comes on but once I press the power key that stops. I think this is one of those phones that once you brick you're done for and there is nothing to bring it back.

Home+Power = recovery mode

volume down+power = fastboot

don't know of any past that

I had saved this info a while back:

BACK + POWER : Fastboot mode

VOLDOWN + POWER : Hboot mode

ACTION (trackball) + POWER : Radio Bootloader

HOME + POWER : Recovery mode

SEND + MENU + POWER : Reboot

I don't know what's the use of the Radio bootloader though. What I can tell you is that even on a working phone you don't get more than the blue led (I just tested)
