[Nexus One Android Development] hugonz:
So I was just looking around the Qualcomm open source (CodeAurora) repositories and noticed that lots of interesting things are going on over there for the qsd8x50 that aren't yet in our N1 kernels.

One of the most potentially useful things to us, is adaptive undervolting, that always chooses the optimal voltage level based on the current temperature and silicon process variations.

https www codeaurora.org/gitweb/quic/chrome/?p=kernel.git;a=commit;h=621d0e14e6fcf454974634cf822f06fba1bd6816

If someone could get this into an N1 kernel, we wouldn't need any more experimentation with undervolting and could always run at the maximum possible stable voltage.

Other interesting changes include USB host support (although it's unlikely the N1 hardware is physically wired to allow for this):

https www codeaurora.org/gitweb/quic/chrome/?p=kernel.git;a=commit;h=109894cac8d01c6273cfa0466f7823a04e919bea

Unfortunately, the Chromium kernel for MSM/QSD seems to be structured quite differently and being worked on by a different team to the Android kernel. Still, it'd be nice to see someone attempt to port at least the AVS patch to a CM kernel.

p.s. can a moderator please approve my account to directly include links? This manual link-munging is getting annoying :-)
[Nexus One Android Development] Grimms:
This sounds interesting :)
[Nexus One Android Development] Markdental:
I know a lot of the devs here check out Qualcomm's latests postings, so hopefully they are aware of this...
[Nexus One Android Development] jairuncaloth:
Also of interest is their framebuffer driver. We need it in the N1 kernel to use their X11 driver.

Has anyone had any luck getting a CAF kernel booting on the N1?
[Nexus One Android Development] hugonz:
Yeah I know, but this is their Chromium/ChromeOS kernel, not their Android kernel. Might have gone unnoticed (I for one, had not thought to look there -- I'd have thought the only Chrome-specific kernel changes would've been the X11 driver -- why should platform-power-management changes not be shared across both kernels?)
[Nexus One Android Development] Ivan Dimkovic:
I ported AVS code to the N1 kernel.

You can download the experimental version here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=654416

AVS kernel is very experimental, and I expect it not to be fully stable.

Also, it looks 1.275v is not really enough for 1.1 GHz - at least AVS complains that it cannot find stable voltage.
[Nexus One Android Development] hugonz:
Funny that: a processor rated for 1 GHz (in a world where if they could get away with selling it as a 1.1 GHz processor they certainly would have) isn't actually capable of 1.1 GHz without compromising stability and/or lifetime. Who'd have thought :p

Cheers for porting it to your kernel though, I'll be interested to see if it makes much difference to battery life.
[Nexus One Android Development] Ivan Dimkovic:
I got no problems with AVS so far - I will release new kernel update tonight with AVS with no overclocking, as AVS and overclocking do not mix well for some people. Also, I provided the patch-code on my github, so other kernel developers can use AVS too, if they wish. There is still an ugly hack inside (one liner, though) which I will fix tonight, too.

Regarding "getting away" with faster CPU (Qualcomm) - I am not really sure if they would do it. There are market pressures, and CPUs are not always binned according to test validation - rather, other factors are at play, such as market demand.

So, it does happen - if someone is lucky, that is - to receive a CPU which could be binned higher, but it was still released at lower frequency because of market demands.

Intel is a very good example of such practice, and I am sure Qualcomm is no different as this is a huge market.
[Nexus One Android Development] intersectRaven:
I'll study this for integration in my .32 kernel...I'll have plenty of time once Holy Week vacation starts here. :D
[Nexus One Android Development] jlevy73:
No doubt about it. Look at the Desire for example. It will be equipped with the 1ghz Snapdragon but will be underclocked to 768mhz to preserve battery life. So while it is certified for higher speeds HTC feels the market would prefer longer battery life over a little bump up in cpu speed
[Nexus One Android Development] jlevy73:
Out of curiosity, what advantages if any do you see with the .32 kernel over .33?
[Nexus One Android Development] intersectRaven:
Well, I've been using it for longer than .33 since I found it to be more responsive and a lot more stable with my 3d live wallpapers. Its also smaller when compiled so I can enable the compiler optimizations with ease. ;)
[Nexus One Android Development] hugonz:
Also, the upstream (AOSP) MSM kernel tree is still at .32... I would guess they may be stabilizing for a release as they've merged the -stable patchseries too (2.6.32.9 etc).
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] benmuskler:
Hey, I´m just wondering if it is possible to install android on the htc touch pro and still being able to use windows mobile. Maybe so you can choose operating system on startup. And if that´s possible i would really like to know how you do it, and if there are any risks about doing it :D

//Benmuskler
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] arrrghhh:
I'll try to not be a d!ck here, but it's pretty obvious you haven't done any reading.

First, we don't have a ROM. So Android would in no way replace WinMo. Android just goes onto the SD card and runs off of it (unless you have a diamond or something that doesn't have an SD card slot...)

Second, there is a ROM - do a search for Gen.Y - that allows you to choose WinMo or Android on boot. I've never used it, so I can't say how good it is. There's also a cab for it.

And next time, please use that search button, or just do a little reading? I know it can be hard but c'mon. Gotta give a little to get a little.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] benmuskler:
thank you very much! :D ill try it right now. And i promise, next time I will search before I ask. Thanks again :P
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] benmuskler:
ok... Now I have been trying to install it for a couple of hours... When I start the phone I can choose between WM or Android. When I select android i get to choose a text file with boot-settings in. After I select the one for my phone everything just freezes. I have been letting it load for a long time, but nothing happens. Does anybody know whats wrong? :S

please help :P

thank you.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] arrrghhh:
Honestly I'd ask for help in the Gen.Y thread. Assuming you setup your Android portion (you did set that up, right?) correctly, I thought it just went. But I've never used it, and this really isn't the right place to be asking the question.

EDIT - actually, you should probably read thru the Gen.Y thread to get an idea of what you may have done wrong before asking a question.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] ben_duder:
The first time I boot Android with a new build it always takes a while, I'd say sometimes around three minutes. How long did you leave it? Was the boot animation still moving?
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] frag132:
hi,

Is there a method or an app for change the android market protocol ?

I can't download with my htc hero, because my mobile subscription allow me only to visit websites with http ftp or https ...

Android market use market protocol :(

thanks for help
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] 2kidz:
ok, prior to coming into work and after playing/tweaking my phone all day...my phone is no longer pretty

i put the cookie monster tab on it and then realized that i no longer have my stock 'isaac mizrahi purple' (located in settings-today) on ALL my screens!!! as a matter of fact, i have somehow reverted BACK to the ugly all black background in my 'messages' w/ white texts!!! i'm BEYOND pist!!! i want my isaac back!!! with isaac on the background of my messages, there were NO lines or anything...please help me asap!!! what did i do to mess up my phone...oh, i have since removed my cookie monster because i didnt see any real difference with it and it deleted some of the quick links i had previously....
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] 2kidz:
anybody???
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] 2kidz:
(((hello?)))
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] burtonsnow8:
have you tried changing from isaac to another setting and then back again? That usually fixes it for me.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] 2kidz:
yep and unfortunately that didnt work :-(

very unhappy with sprint because after an hr and 15 min and talking to 4 diff people, the only advice they had for me was to remove the battery, when that didnt work, she told me to look in MY pics to see if the isaac was there...AFTER i told her it was stock/came with the phone!!!! i just hung up, couldnt deal with them anymore so now i'm stuck with an ugly balck messaging background ;-(
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] imekul:
I recently updated from DamageControl 1 to 2. Before updating, I did a Nandroid backup of my Sprint Hero.

I tried to flash the new ROM over the existing one (so as to retain my apps, settings, etc). That didn't work, as the phone would hang at the HTC "Simply Brilliant" screen when booting up.

I then did a wipe via the recovery menu, and re-flashed the latest DC ROM. This worked fine, but obviously I'm without all my apps and settings.

I know if I do a Nandroid restore, I could get everything back, but I would obviously lose my upgraded ROM.

So what I'm trying to do is find a way to extract my apps from the Nandroid backup and manually install them on the Hero.

Most apps I can simply redownload, and while it might take a little bit, it's not a huge deal. One paid app in particular, though -- Smart Keyboard Pro -- won't show up, while other previously-purchased apps do.

So my ultimate goal is to restore my apps from the Nandroid backup. Is there a way to extract the backup images and manually install the APKs or something like that?

I've tried searching XDA, but I couldn't come up with anything other than the full restore that Nandroid does. Again, that would work, but I would then be downgrading my ROM.

Thanks in advance!
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Wufei:
You can try Titanium Backup or AppMonster (formerly AppManager) to backup your apps. Titanium backs up user data too
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] unCoRrUpTeD:
I have been using AppManager but I heard Titamium Backup will do alot more .

With DC1 a2sd was enabled (Ithink) therefore all apps were saved on the sdcard in Android/data

I would strongly suggest using one of the apps above to save everything. Also everytime I install a ROM I go and download backup app I used and restore.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] glenesis:
I'd restore the old ROM, backup apps with Titanium Backup (choose Batch from the menu, then (All User & System Apps and Data). Then put the new ROM back, and restore your apps and settings one at a time from Titanium Backup. I'd be lost without Titanium Backup.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Bierce22:
you do realize that this thread is over a year old right?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] webfeind:
A year old is ok, you never know if someone else has this same thought. You know if the roms have the same framework you could just move the data.img file to a new folder where the backup folder is at and edit the nandroid.md5 file by removing all the lines for the other img files excluding the data.img file. Then boot to recovery and choose the new folder from the restore backup menu. Works for me.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] glenesis:
File Expert will back up apps, too. It also has a setting to automatically back up an .apk for every app you install and/or uninstall. File Expert just backs up the .apk files into a folder called "Backup Apps". It does not back up app data.

Also, Titanium Backup will extract apps from a nandroid backup. I am not sure whether it will restore an app with its data from a nandroid backup, but it will let you extract an app.
[HD2 General] aLlamaWithARifle:
I installed S2U2 and quickly decided I didn't like it, so I closed it and then uninstalled and then did a soft reset and the S2U2 lock screen was gone however there is no lock screen.

I press my hardware end key and it turns the screen off, when I press it again normally it would display the lock screen however it just wakes the phone and doesn't display the lock screen.

If I hold the end key and select lock screen then it will display the lock screen but when I unlock it and then lock my phone using the end key it doesn't show the lock screen on waking up again.
[HD2 General] Sean3:
aLlamaWithARifle, when you install S2U2 it disables autolock so you won't have an issue with S2U2 double locking. To fix, use a registry editor and go to: HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Lockscreen and look for "Enable" and set it's dword to 1. Soft reset. If that doesn't work go to HKCU\ControlPanel\Backlight\ and look for AutoDeviceLockEnable dword should be 1.

If you don't like messing with the registry, you can install bsb tweaks, if you haven't already, and enable autolock there.

Hope that helps
[HD2 General] aLlamaWithARifle:
I edited the registry but the lockscreen enabled was already set to 1, tried autodevicelock to 1 and did a soft reset but still not working.
[HD2 General] Sean3:
Try this: HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd DeviceLockWhenSuspend and set it to 1. Softreset.

hello all,

I have one S300+ flashed before I buy it with an other rom not original one, So I need find the original rom of this phone because they have TOMTOM on this one,

any one can help me pls, I download many rom, but don't find the tomtom software,

Best Regards,

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development] iceman64:
Hi guys

Just a question:

Is there a complete clean OS, i only need to run TomTom, so no phone, no internet etc, no office, just a clean working OS....:rolleyes:
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development] Tegge88:
If you only need to allow an OS to run TomTom use this:

Windows Mobile 6.5 Build 21888 from D-Two
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shuyinsama:
Hey all.

Im currently running the OpenEclair DietClair rom.

Which I Love!

But, I wanna see and test the latest (1.2.2 full) rom of openeclair.

How do I go about doing this?

Can I just put the rom on there and flash again.

Do I need to wipe etc and install the DangerSPL and Radio again

that kind of stuff..just so that I wont brick the phone..

many thanks.

PS:

Yes I saw that someone was making een OE Updater but I'm just curious
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peshal:
DietEclair is the latest rom by openeclair team.

DietEclair= v1.2.2

SO u are basically already running the full latest Openeclair v1.2.2
[HD2 General] onisuk:
looks to be running reeeeeeeeeeal smooth too...haha NOT! what a pile of turd !

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zZovb8onH-g
[HD2 General] sleepwalkers:
There's already been a thread about this.

And of course it doesn't run real smooth. They put the ROM from literally the first public SDK build of an OS. Anyone expecting it to run "smooth" or faulting it for not running smoothly on a build of this type needs to do some reevaluating.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] fceeviper:
Question guys,

My Pro2 recently started to ask me to have a password to unlock my phone, and I really hate this. I can't remove this feature because the check box to remove this service is grayed out...

Can someone please help me remove this? I hate putting in a password every time I wake up my phone. Please, please help!

Thx in advance..
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] ah23:
Backspace out the password and save it, should work fine
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] fceeviper:
I'll give it a try, thx.
[HD2 General] lemonspeakers:
using a Euro HD2:

SO I dont' have a data plan with my t-mobile account. However, on my HD2, if I dont enable wifi, and accidentally launch opera, the little "E" icon appears next to the cellphone signal bar. This indicated that I am using DATA right?

If so, and if i dont have a data plan, will i still be charged? Is it safe to let that little icon go for hours? go to the settings tab and turn off data connection.
[HD2 General] lude219:
Yes, you will be charged.
[HD2 General] kilrah:
And, usually, you will be charged insane amounts.

That's the whole point of a data plan... usually you'll get a 250MB plan or so for less than $10, while if you use data without a data plan it can easily cost you $10 PER MB!

So... check your contract terms, and either subscribe to a data plan, or deactivate data connection altogether, NOW, if you don't want a very bad surprise at the end of the month.
[HD2 General] cMMY69:
Hi, I believe that you will be charged for data transfers but it is safe to let the little icon go for hours if you are not transferring data (like between updates etc.). If it's an E then thats Edge and it might be worth talking to your service provider to see if you can get a data plan and (hopefully) a faster connection that Edge. That's if you really need that connection.

Regards.
[HD2 General] Cheesy Dave:
Yes, the "E" indicates you have a data connection and will be charged if you transmit.

But, if you turn off all the applications that transmit then even though the "E" shows you should not get charged. The charges will occur when you transmit/receive. If you do not have a data plan then these charges can be high, especially if you do this while roaming.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] riiidaa:
My most recent problem is to do with my text messages - default app.

One of my contacts / threads has a Caution '!' triangle on it, pretty sure its just showing an unread message, but it's not very distinguishable as to read and unread - I'm damned if I can't actually find it in the thread, I don't want to delete the entire thread - is there a trick or tip to solve it guys?

----------------------

At work I can't jump on to the company wifi, it has one of those web browser auth screens you have to key your login into first before it'll let you surf. A lot like at public wifi hotspots...

It doesn't accept my perfectly valid login, my old Blueangel, netbook and N95 are able to get on with no sweat.

Similarly, one of our web based tools at work doesn't have a paid for / trusted SSL cert, and my Hero (over 3G) warns me but seemingly does allow me to go further by presenting me with a login prompt, but again doesn't accept my login which is valid and keeps returning me to the prompt. I'm wondering if both these issues might be because Android just won't allow me to add SSL exceptions on its browser?

To that end I tried installing Dolphin and a few other browsers but I get no further and so have a sneaking suspicion that they just overlay over the same browser engine??

-----------------------

Hero running Android can't Bluetooth sync with my pc / Outlook and even when using the god awful HTC wired link can't sync Notes from outlook...

Even my old HTC Blueangel could accomplish such things many many moons ago, maybe I should go jump over to HTC's HD2, or does that also have crippled bluetooth capabilities as seems to be the backward trend that started with the iPhone?

I seem to remember trawling Android Market (Again) v recently and now a few developers seem to have 'Notes' sync on offer, anyone had any joy using such?

-----------------------

I just cannot get a clear shot with the camera, I'm no great photographer, any my physical disability plays part here - but I've had camera phones before and had far more success getting non blurry photos than with Hero. Is this a well documented shortcoming of the native ap? Is there a free app that makes the camera more usable perhaps?

-----------------------

I've not tried rooting or flashing my Hero phone yet, but am considering doing it if I sniff out the guide which I'm confident will be here. I just read Android commander may be a vital acquisition for reinstalling my Apps.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Redpizzi:
Ok i dont know much but i will try

Your current unrooted bluetooth is crap - i cannot get it to do anything but BT Headset connection

But if you root the phone - i used villianrom 3.0 then you have perfect bluetooth options, for syncing and sending files to other phones...

The camera is good for me, but i have to be god damn still. if i move at all it goes blur - HTC and camera's are the worse and you can get apps that do help. will try and track the names down...
[Hero, G2 Touch General] adamg89:
----------------------

This is normally to do with an un sent message, ie you have tried replying to message and for some reason (loss of signal), it was unable to send that message. Look through the thread and see if you have any triangles at all. Other than this, or deleting the thread, I cannot think of anything else.

-----------------

I have the same problem at uni, where WPA2-Enterprise security is in place. Luckily I just use my 3G but understood not all have an unlimited data plan.

-----------------------

Android Cupcake (v1.5) which is what you will have running does not support bluetooth file transfer, just bluetooth headsets. When 2.1 is out you will have full support for file transfer. At current there are developer roms out there which are based on 2.1, but not official releases so have some bugs still. Again with the camera, think 2.1 has a better camera app but I havn't got round to trying one of the 2.1 based developer roms yet. Plus, they're not brilliant cameras. I barely use mine.

-------------------

Plenty of guides. You may have to check whether your phone requires the goldcard CID bypass, which mine did using T-Mobile UKs shipped rom. Just abuot to go out or I'd link you.

Hope I've cleared some stuff up for you.

[Hero, G2 Touch General] riiidaa:
You know, I finally figured this out and nailed it about an hour before reading your reply. Thanks man!!
[Hero, G2 Touch General] quicksite:
My response is not necessarily relevant to you, but my first Hero (brand new, bought SIM-less, GSM, October 2009), had a problem with wi-fi. Worked sometimes and not others. I finally determined it was defective, the phone. I was having other strange problems which I have never seen anyone else document here at XDA (though I haven't looked). I would very often get a SIM card error where a large graphic of a sim card displays on a home page with a red X circled around it. I eventually concluded this was also a defect.

I initially went to my T-Mobile store and got a brand new SIM card to swap - in case that was it... I had taken my well-worn T-Mobile Wing SIM Card from T-Mobile and loaded it onto the Hero from the start. There were no problems initially. Anyway, even after the swapout of a new SIM card, problem persisted. Next called HTC Tech Support (USA), they did trpoubleshooting with me, including sequential uninstalling of apps.. eventually recommending a hard reset... Which I resorted to because of BOTH the SIM card problem (when this displayed, I also could not connect to T-mo network at all) and the WIFI intermittent problem. FInally they said send it in for repair. (Not a Swapout for a new one, mind you, but a "repair", per policy).

After 2 weeks got it back with what was allegedly a replaced motherboard... The SIM problem persisted, but wifi was working reliably. Amazingly, even now HTC wouldn't commit to replacing it; then said they could only authorize warranty repair! again.

I have since bought a used HERO, and no prob at all with either of these issues. Thus, I just want to throw out a remote chance that you have some flawed hardware. I doubt it, but who knows... I guess only way to rule that out is to have someone with a Hero try to loan you a phone to try to log onto wifi at work, just to see.

Hope this was of help, just as the possibility that they DO have occasional defective hardware. good luck...
