[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] tudort:
That Ram bonus would be usefull if we were using ALOT of apps simultaneosly . But never in my experience with this phone needed more ram . So If you plan on installing a long list of apps and running them all in background(just to boast) maybe more ram is required. But aside the app that eats ram to check if it is valid i do not know of anyone to have reported to reach the limit with even pro usage.

If the phone hardware recognizes the extra ram and uses it then it is there. The extra tmous radios enable the phone to use more of its hardware perhaps? Remember PCs...? Windows x86 works up to only 3 gigs of ram even if you have 16 gb of ram installed onto the motherboard. Using a higher functionality operating version in x64 mode (for dual-core proc) enables the " hidden ram " . The ram was always there but the system needed a better programing to use it . I am not much of a computer expert but i guess its not fake, only that u do not need it !
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] snipervn:
It is my personal thinks:

The fact:

- ROM that show 448 MB run smoother than ROM that show 576Mb as I fell and some tests.

The reasons may be:

- HD2 (Leo) have enough 576Mb, it is real.

- With basic ROM, the manufacturer hide some part of RAM to use it for permanent applications/programs that may support for WinMo run faster and smoother and that apps/progs do not need to start/stop usually. The hidden part could be set to priority access mode (may be). And the RAM shown for you is 448 Mb only and you could do every thing with this part of RAM.

- The ROM that hacked RAM side to be shown as 576Mb open the hidden part and make all off RAM could be used randomly by user. In that case, top necessary applications run by Windows should start and stop many times, it may make the OS be slower a little.

It is my idea.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] chris5932:
The question is not If 576MB RAM is real (its proven to me), it's the question if there may be 1GB ROM also.. as I don't see any reason why they would do that little change if they alrdy didn't change the 576 RAM thing

The only question is.. why don't TMOUS roms unlock the (may) hidden ROM?

I guess it could some realy deep coded software thing.. not sure if thats even possible..maybe others can tell

We will see alot more clear if we can boot into linux =)

Cheers

the actual chips are different for the rom. cotulla posted the two chip model numbers. one has 576ram512rom onboard the other has 576ram1024rom.

Ah thanks for clearing this up! Didn't know that..
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] xmoo:
The whole RAM thing is one big weird thing..

The HTC PRO THREE (Prototype HD2) came with 320MB, and in some roms it showed 340MB...

Using a retail HTC HD2 flashing a prototype ROM will give you 128MB...

Flashing stock rom gives you 448MB...

Flashing a 2.x based rom gives you 567MB...

Confusing.....
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Abolisher2407:
Thanks for the clear and concise explanation.

Definitely convinced the extra ram is there.... whether it makes much difference in a real life situation on the phone....

I'll let all you good people come up with your own correct opinions on this matter.

Many thanks all.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] jigners:
just read through the whole thread. Really interesting. :):)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] djet:
What's really appealing is that quite a lot of people (including me) had complaints on significantly worse real life multitasking experience with 576MB ROMs. There could be a simple explanation that mixed components ("frankenbuild") ROMs have poor stability because of improper components but I had some time with stock TMOUS 2.10 ROM on EU HD2 and the experience was as bad.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] addlogic:
Hate to go technical on you guys but the memory architecture used by the windows mobile kernel is (too) old and has an architectural limitation -it can only handle a maximum of 512MB physical memory. Even if you have 1GB RAM the kernel will only be able to handle 512MB of it. To make it even more complicated, the a typical mobile CPU have most of its built in pheripheras memory mapped, which means that the kernel needs to map these pheripherals into the 512MB space as well, effectively lowering what's available to RAM-mapping.

Furthermore, as someone pointed out there's a 32MB limit on each process. This does however not mean that a process cannot allocate more memory than that. It can, by allocating memory in a shared memory space, rather than in its 32Mb process slot. Still since it is the kernel that manage the memory allocations, it is only aware of 512MB memory.

Now, there are ways to utilize RAM above the 512MB limit, but that memory will be completely outside the kernel's control and require custom made applications and drivers with knowledge where this memory is located physically, how to access this memory and then manually allocate and manage it themselves.

I can ensure you that this will not happen automagically.

I do have an HTC PRO THREE Pre-release HD2 and it has only 320MB on it. Any known working hacks or something? I have tried all radios with various cooked and official ROMs and the 320MB doesn't change at all, using energy roms would seem to limit all my device's activities, and would alert that has insufficient memory.... any help? TIA!

Perhaps you missed the post two posts above yours about how apps can allocate more than 32 by using shared memory space.

Please forgive me if I posted in the wrong category

Now after a year or so I decided to start playing games from RealDice again. Problem is, when I tried to play some of the games on my device, no matter if I used WiFi, AS or Data connection, the app gave me a "failed to connect to server" error.

PC version of games on the other hand work perfect... so I'm not exactly sure what could be the problem. Anyone else experience this or has possibly found a solution?

My phone has 1 strange problem. Sometime, when i reboot it (to refresh ram), it auto re-install the ROM (i think so, because it force me to check the Touch Screen, time zone, etc), some process the same with upgrading process.

Anyone has problem the same with me?

p/s: Sorry for my bad English.

This problem appear with every ROM, which i try. Its about 1 week - 2 month per ROM, then it will appear.

[Desire General] lambrospower:
Hey guys i noticed 2 days ago that when i receive an sms i get two notifications (previously i had only one). The first one says that i have # new messages and when you click on it it takes you to the messages app where you see all the threads you have. And the second notification is the default one which has the sender and a preview of the sms message.

I didn't find the first notification anywhere neither in the guide or online but i only want the default notification with the sender and the preview...

In addition even if you click on the first notification it stays there but it says no new messages!!!

How do i disable this ???

edit: i uploaded screenshots that show this notification

edit2: i even disabled the notifications in the messages app and i don't get the sms preview notification but this one still comes up!!!

ok please a mod close this thread......it was from the beautifull widgets 2...i didn't have the sms widget on my home screens but it still was getting notifications.UNINSTALLED and everything ok

[Nexus One General] Casao:
I was thinking on the way in, as I got annoyed by my music getting interrupted to tell me I had a new gmail message, that it might be somehow possible to play alert tones without muting default volume. The official AIM app manages to do this somehow, and I've been told back in the day it didn't interrupt anything when an alert played, so I'd like to try to bring this back somehow.

My thoughts are that it should be doable either in the notifications code or the audio code itself. I'm planning to jump into the CM5 source head first tonight, but it would be nice to know where to go about starting looking - is anyone familiar enough with how this works to tell me if it's plausible, and which section of the code it should be in?
[Nexus One General] RinTinTigger:
+1

this would be great! I mean, whats the point in a blinking red trackball, if it still interrupts music with the sound ;)
[Nexus One General] daveid:
Back in the RC29&30 days this was the normal behavior for Android. It was changed to the current action of pausing the ongoing music with RC33 (pretty sure). As much as I would love my music to not be interrupted, I prefer the current method to the old "mixing" method. Where it would just play both sounds at the same time (pretty annoying actually). What would be ideal to me is the way my SEM600i did it, when I was listening to music (or watching a video) it would just beep and vibe when an alert came in & the music continued to play. This way I knew something was happening (be it a call or message) and could check my phone if I wanted, or keep on listening uninterrupted.
[Nexus One General] Nedlinin:
I agree with this. Would love a simple beep rather than the whole notification tone.
[Nexus One General] iamwhoamnot:
id prefer a dim of the music volume then the tone, when it stops altogether its quite annoying especially in my car with the speakers up. if it just dimmed the sound down to give the notification preference it wouldnt be so disturbing and it wouldnt go loud silent super loud silent loud every time i get a text
[Nexus One General] Casao:
This would actually be ideal, I'm going to look into it and see if it's possible to do this.
[Nexus One General] RinTinTigger:

this it how it should work!
[Nexus One General] dcplaya:
I think is is ideal as well but I am not sure if Apple has a patent on that. No other phone that I know of uses that except the iPhone.

Development thread for a software method to morph your voice during a phone call

The idea is to develop a software method which let's you morph your voice during a phone call. There are many ways to achieve this and I am amenable to suggestions.

Since I was not able to find any API which let's you configure the voice or the stream from the microphone or something similar I came up with the idea to write a driver for the microphone, which would give me the ability to change my voice directly within it, but after some research it was clear to me that it can't be that easy.

Updates:

05.05.2010 - Microphone driver solution died. Researching for a new way...

Windows Mobile doesn't seem to have any influence on the microphone during a phone call. Deeper research about the hardware of the phone is necessary (processors, DSP/MDSP,....).

HELP IS APPRECIATED AND ANY SUGGESTIONS ARE WELCOME

I will update this thread as some news appear.

Please write your suggestions and your ideas directly as post in this thread.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tsalta:
The IDEA is cool i dont know how to help you, maybe i cant but the IDEA is really Cool and soft like this will be awesome.

There on the Market Already have some Apps to Morping your voice but none of them can Morph in real time durring a phone call so this is most importmantly you can call someone with complete diferent voice LOL

The most importmantly for soft like this is to be simple and to work Fast.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] inderbrar:
chinese phones have this feature in almost all model, these phones operate on their custom made firmwares, if anyone can explore these thoroughly, you will definitely get positive results. I have seen this feature on these phones and they do morph voice in realtime, they have feature of both fast and slow, where it becomes impossible to recognize the caller's voice. I dont know how they do it and these phones are very very cheap and almost all of them are dual sim.

Just a suggestion

Hi,

I am working currently on the fixing of the WLAN driver for Philips BGW200 chip for Windows CE 5.0. The WLAN chip is connected to the CPU Intel PXA270 via the SPI interface.

We experience device freezing (during roaming?) in wireless environment with 17 access points and Cisco WLAN controller. The threads and timers of the driver are sequentially crashing or stopping somehow, the WLAN chip stops to send interrupts, and NDIS stops to query and set configuration data to the driver. Even reset of the driver invoked by NDIS doesn’t help.

We do not have any documentation for the driver and the firmware is only a binary image. We have discovered many synchronization issues inside the driver and some memory leaks are also present.

If you can, please help us. Is there any available developer documentation for the BGW200 chip, or for any Windows CE driver for it? Is there a tested and well running driver available?

Any advice is welcome.

I have a POLA100 with windows mobile 6.1 (anime rom 2.0 french) and android installed on ext2 partitions on my SD card.

I'm having heavy troubles making all the thing work.

When I install with polymod rom (2.1g) almost everything is working (exept camera for example) event wifi, but I can't install apps with the market because of "not enough space" ... wait a second, each ext2 partition is 1GB ...

When I install with an other rom, I can't have wifi (I don't use any data connection), so it isn't really usefull ...

And I don't want to remove windows mobile, cause windows allows me to use all of the capabilities of the phone (camera ...)

Is there any way to get my android market to work properly ?
