[Droid Eris General] Hungry Man:
So I'd been using JIT on my Evil Eris ROM (and I'd used it with a few others) and I was getting scores of 5.1~ mflops. Here are some things I noticed.

While I had first enabled JIT it was glitch free. I can safely say at this point that any "speed increase" I'd noticed was likely placebo or at least admissible.

JIT is amazing, but it's amazing for Froyo. The way a JIT compiler works is that it precompiles information into code that is more easily read, causing slight lag to begin and increasing overall performance. The thing they had to do with froyo is optimize just about everything to stop the lag and to make JIT worthwhile.

The other reason is that despite removing sense and eventually using the Universal JIT and basically doing everything to make it stable JIT began to show problems. It was absolutely stable for a very long time but if I left my phone on for a few days or I started installing new programs/ a new launcher it would get glitchy and laggy. This likely goes back to what I said about JIT really being much better for Froyo. It came to the point that I felt slower than before I rooted.

Now that I'm not on JIT I can also overclock higher. Before I was limited to 768mhz and if I went over it was an instant crash. Now with JIT removed I'm up to 787, I can do 806 but it only lasts a few minutes before it freezes up but it's proof to the concept that I can overclock much higher. I get consistently 3.4~ mflops.

I do realize that I while on JIT I got a large increase in mflops but in my experience I am performing better without it. I think that when Froyo ROM's come out JIT will be much better implemented.

tl;dr: JIT ended up causing lag, I can overclock higher without it, I'm just as fast/faster without it.

note: For something like a game JIT may help you much more than just scrolling around since the game will be precompiled and then run more smoothly but in my experience (with Zenonia mostly) there was no improvement and occasionally I would in fact lag more.

Just thought I should say this to everyone.
[Droid Eris General] refthemc:
Kind a sounds like steroids, ya you get muscle and look cool but there are side effects
[Droid Eris General] Hungry Man:
Yeah and JIT was made for Froyo, not for the other ones. Froyo was heavily optimized, they spent a ton of time just making everything work as well as possible so that the JIT wouldn't actually be detrimental. So while JIT does increase MFLOPS and performance it can cause a lot of bugs and slow downs because it's trying to compile information that isn't optimized for it.
[Droid Eris General] thenestor:
Hm. I think I'll try disabling JIT for a while too. I might prefer the quicker load time over any supposed increase in performance. I haven't had much buggy behavior, but I have had some restarts and wonder if they're caused by JIT or just overclocking in general.
[Droid Eris General] Hungry Man:
I've found overclocking surprisingly stable without JIT. It's incredible that I can overclock to 806mhz now with glitches and 787 is absolutely stable...

Looking back I realize now that JIT had slowly degraded, I started off overclocking without it to 787 and as I turned it on it began to get very glitchy with 787, eventually freezing immediately with it. I wouldn't be surprised if the restarts you're having are due to JIT in combination with overclocking.
[Droid Eris General] dusthead:
good post +1.

the devs don't say anything about this in their threads, thats if they even know it or have experienced it themselves so i'm not blaming anyone.

good to know so i can at least eval it for myself. thanks.
[Droid Eris General] thenestor:
I think JIT might have been interfering with my Swype. Maybe it's doing too much "just in time" compiling and not enough "ahead of time" compiling. But anyway, yesterday I switched back and forth several times between using JIT and not using JIT, but didn't change anything else, and I definitely noticed that Swype was more responsive without JIT. With JIT enabled, I kept having to retype things because my tracing path would skip over parts; it was choppy. Without JIT it's smooth as silk and therefore accurate again.
[Droid Eris General] Hungry Man:
I think a lot of the problem is that apps also aren't made to use JIT yet, all of the developers made apps for non-JIT phones first... you see a LOT of problems in phones that have background apps (setcpu, autokillers, etc) when they have JIT enabled. I think anyone who read up on JIT when it was announced will see mentions of the google dev's saying "We really really streamlined the phone to make use of the JIT".... obviously they're remarking that JIT without streamlining and "light" OS is a bit of a waste. JIT on my Froyo ROM (CM6) is very much more stable. If anyone's interested I did some benchmarks for JIT here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=726038
[Droid Eris General] thenestor:
Found this in the Hero forums, and it obviously applies to the Eris as well:
[Droid Eris General] Hungry Man:
Yes well you can decrease or increase the amount of RAM that JIT will use (heap size) and increase stability or decrease it. I understand why it's default off, it makes sense especially since a lot of programs aren't made to use it *cough pandora cough*
[Droid Eris General] surgeon0214:
I'm running Cyanogenmod 6 froyo, did you test the effects of turning on and off JIT on this ROM?
[Droid Eris General] Hungry Man:
Yes, like I said JIT was literally made for Froyo ROMs, and you can quite clearly see that when you hear the devs who created it talk about it in google conferences and such, they had to do a lot to get JIT to work well without creating huge slowdown. Compilers are almost ALWAYS a bad idea because of their nature and because if information isn't made for the compiler it ends up doing more harm than good.

Froyo is streamlined to work with JIT without causing slowdown so I would highly recommend using the JIT compiler with Froyo.
[Droid Eris General] surgeon0214:
What about the Compcahe? Idk what it even does ahah
[Droid Eris General] pcn2009:
I turned JIT and surface dithering off. Phone runs smooth and no force closes.
[Droid Eris General] pkopalek:
Compcache can speed some things up. I enabled it on a SenseUI ROM a while ago and had TERRIBLE, crashing results until I turned it off, at random.

I can confirm that JIT's make Swype crash sometimes. I can do a 100 fast-swype word experiment (which, I do a lot of 'texting', so this experiment happens every day), on days I have JIT on, Swype randomly disappears. (it is set to restart itself after 5.0 seconds, so don't worry). With JIT off, it only does its normal random crashing (when I accidentally hit the Swype key while it's thinking of what words I just swyped, for example -- just the known crash bugs).

JIT day was yesterday, for example (I'm experimenting with JITs because of this thread) - and Swype crashed more than 10 times (I stopped counting by the time I was at the bar for two hours, -- don't drink and swype!)

Non-JIT day was today, and Swype has not crashed 1 time (despite writing a few very long emails in a passenger seat and some serious texting).

Monday is a JIT day, and I'm pretty confident based on my findings, that these have a huge impact on Swype.

I'm just using SenseUI for the weekend (for reliability/etc, because I'm 'On Call' for work), but if my findings prove my theory WRONG, I'll edit this post and note that.

But in general, yes, I agree, JITs mess with Swype. Not to a point of usability, but to a point that, the late person might think Swype is unreliable (unknowingly).
[Droid Eris General] Hungry Man:
Compcache is your processor compressing the information that is stored in your RAM to increase the total amount of RAM that you can use per program. This can increase performance by letting your programs use more RAM but it can also decrease performance by increasing the time that the CPU has to work on compression. For the Eris I don't suggest Compcache unless you're overclocking to at least 710mhz and if you're on a Froyo ROM I don't suggest it at all since you should have plenty of RAM already.

What VM Heap Size are you using pkopalek? Smaller heap sizes are more unstable, you may find swype is more stable at 24m if you're at 12 or 16. 24m is the point where sense becomes stable (sorta) with JIT.

Okay, So i updated my phone to R2 software (unrooted at the moment, had it rooted but there isn't that much that you can do with a non cracked bootloader quite yet).

I've noticed on Timescape it gives me the options to apply themes, which effectively just changes the background.

Is this standard on R2 software? Its sooo much snappier than the R1 that was on my phone before!
[XPERIA X10 General] Tri3Dent:
Yes, SE has added themes (which is actually just changing the wallpaper) to timescape. This is a new feature for R2 firmwares. And yes, I find it quite snappier as well!

What kind of cable

Hello,

What kind of cable are you using exactly? is there any picture or link to buy one online?

Thank you
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bl4ckdr4g00n:
Same question.

where can we buy this cable?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Tachikoma_kun:
It's a Nokia N95-96-97 video out cable (CA-75U), I bought one for £1.94 delivered off eBay.

Bear in mind it's composite (not Component), so the picture quality up close is pretty bad, and there's some noticable lag, so using it for gaming isn't ideal.

[Touch HD General] IceFire32:
Hello :)

Today my loved Touch HD fell down and the front glass of the touchscreen is broken now :/ Because the reparation is so expensive, I think about repairing it by myself. Now I just want to ask you: Is this the right part?

(Picture 1.PNG in the attachment)

Or do I have to take sth like on the 2.PNG?

Picture0017.jpg is a photo of the broken touchscreen.

And another question: Is it hard to do this by myself?

Thanks :)

Greetings,

IceFire32

PS: Sorry for my bad english :/
[Touch HD General] dskmat:
Hi i did this myself. It is a little fiddley. At the last stage removing the glass from carriage was worst bit. Had to apply a substantial amount of pressure. (see the metal distorted off the back of the sensor)

I only wanted to change the casing. Ended up breaking the glass and tearing the connecting ribbon on the sensor.

Since your replacing this part anyway the whole pocess is much easier.

I got the parts off ebay. Cost me £56 in feb.

there is a good tutorial linked in this forum somewhere. Do a search. Guy with a strong italian accent.

PS get some double sided tape. as thin as you can find it.

and be very careful how you place the glass back in or use a weak adhesive tape.

Watch the tutorial. (search the forum) to see where he pushed to dislodge glass.

Hope this helps.

Hi there

I'm trying the

*#*#2432546#*#*

*#*#checkin#*#*

code on the phone dialer, on my htc desire stock rom on Orange, people are reporting that it created a notification saying 'Checkin successful' and a triangle icon in the top bar. But Im not getting anything at all. I type the code in and after entering the last * the code dissapears and I get no notification or message.

Can anyone confirm that on Orange this code does not work?
[Desire General] steve228uk:
I've just tried it on my Orange de-branded with stock ROM and I get nothing either. What is the 'Checkin' anyway?
[Desire General] oursoul:
I thought it was INFO

*#*#4636#*#*
[Desire General] Sideburnt:
Its one of the method people are using to check for OTA updates, the other method being settings>About Phone>Check for updates

the code I believe is a 'checking in' service that looks for updates from google rather than htc or the carrier. Although I might be wrong on that aspect.

I've read a few people using the code and recieveing key updates (such as the update to 1.21 (im on 1.15)

its a bit of a mystery at the moment, still learning my way around the android OS, and tinkering as much as possible. :)

[Desire General] Sideburnt:
sounds like a bummer, looks like we'll play the waiting game with htc and orange as to when the OTA update gets pushed out. Either that or switch ROMS which IM not that keen on doing, other than stripping out all the crud that Orange put on the build, I mean come on Orange if I don't want your game demo's I should be able to remove them.
[Desire General] steve228uk:
Orange have said that the update may not even come if they can't get the branding to work alongside it. I ended up de-branding too, and I guess it's not working because there isn't an update?
[Desire General] Sideburnt:
Orange said that?, what an incredible stance to take, cripple the whole android OTA experience simple so they can slip in some bloatware and subsidised demos that no-one ever uses anyway. the two most useful apps for Orange 'Orange Wednesdays and Your Orange' arn't even part of the initial orange software they're both found on the marketplace.

Looks like I'll be debranding soon then, im more than a little annoyed at Orange.

Im not fully surprised that the Froyo OTA update isn't available via Orange yet, however on T-Mobile, my girlfriend has no update pushed out to her Desire , whereas my buddy also on T-Mobile got the OTA update 2 days ago, both on stock roms, so the OTA isn't necessarily limited by carrier. I expect this has been talked to death in other threads mind you.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bodybuilder27:
I Installed Hyperom using all proper procedure, but after a couple of day's couldn't get on with it, so downloaded a new Rom and went through the usual procedures of Task 29 etc....loaded new custom Rom......only looked 80% like it was suppposed too, even tried other Roms - same result.

Main this is that even after using a decent sdhc memory card formatter... ........I can do task 29, 50,000 times, soft resets, flash to standard rom, ...format again....bacically no matter what do, The first 5-10 seconds of the new Rom loading STILL displays the text from a previous Rom.

It's a black screen, comes up saying "Hyperrom".....about 10 seconds later, the new upgraded Rom loads up, but never looks or performs like it should.

I've made sure installing correct radios etc for whatever Rom I download, tried bootloader format, active sync format, left memory card out.....no matter what I try parts of the old Rom still remain.....frustrating.

Any Ideas?

Tried everything I can, used search funtion in orum etc......6-7 different Roms, all with correct Radios and installation procedures...still get black screen with "Hyperom" logo and black screen, new Rom loads and works, but only 80%......ARRGGHHHHHH:eek:

Weeks this been happening now.

please please please can somebody help me??:confused:

much appreciated

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
the first screen up to the animation is a splashscreen or bootscreen, and is not connected to the ROM, meaning unless you flash a stock rom, or a custom that includes one(like the one you hve stuck there) then it will remain.

you can flash bootscreens just like roms and radios,

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] niematunikogo:
Hello,

I've been googling around but didn't find an answer for some questions I have..

I bought an att n1 one month ago with stock 4gb card. yesterday new 32gb sandisk sd card has arrived and I started wondering what can I do with it, so my nexus would benefit :)

I have cyanogenmod 5.0.8 now, and i've used Amon_ra recovery to partition my sd card.

I used 256 mb swap, 2048mb ext2>3>4 and fat for the rest.

Now I'm wondering, why do I need I fat partition at all??

I'm linux user, so mounting a ext partition is not a problem.

will all apps work with only ext partition?

how do they know now that they should use fat as a storage and ext is only for app2sd?

is there anything else i could think off now? maybe I should make some additional partition only for custom roms, radios, updates, backups?

(I've seen a screenshot of "program" that allows to flash custom roms from a list, thats that? )

finally, is it possible to have dualboot? I mean two OS installed? :) (I still dont know what for:P )

Thank you for answers, especially those concerning partitions ;)

Orkut Updates at Timescape avaliable

I dont't know if I'm resurrecting a dead Thread, but it is already possible to have Orkut updates at the Timescape. The only thing you have to do is to push "Orkut_Plugin.apk" (attachment) into the "/system/app/" folder.

To do this, it's simple, just place the "Orkut_Plugin.apk" inside your memory card from the cellphone, disable the usb from phone to pc and execute these commands at the Windows Command Prompt:

Replace ADB_location for the location of your ADB files database.

Sorry, but i'm not allowed to post outside links yet. Then you'll have to search the ADB files by your own, try "adb shell download" on Google.:(

If you download the "Android SDK", the ADB files are located at the "tools" folder.;)
