Find anywhere where the Droid x gpu is faster. Necore is like 42 fps vs sgs 55+, nenomark 1 is 44 on sgs and what? 22 on dx?

Your info is wrong, now the dx may jump that high during testing at one point, but average the sgs holds steady framerates much better.
[Vibrant General] apollouser:
There is a cap though. No matter what I can never go above 56 fps on any app.
[Vibrant General] Mark271:
I had seen a video of reviews and was surprised when they said the Droid X got like 59 FPS on quadrant while the SGS got 56
[Vibrant General] smashpunks:
But that's untrue. Sgs wins in every gpu benchmark.
[Vibrant General] Mark271:
Hmm, I wish I could find the video, I am too lazy to look through the 1000 of comparison videos.

But granted, maybe I was mistaken.
[Vibrant General] s15274n:
^ trust me, I've tested both... whatever you say you saw, again, it is incorrect.
[Vibrant General] smashpunks:
I've seen probably every dx and sgs gpu benchmark video out. I can 100 % guarantee that the sgs not only beats the dx, but whips it by a good margin. They may have said at point during the test the dx may go over 60 at some points, but its all over the place going from 40 to 60 back down and up and etc. Where as the sgs just chills nicely around 56 although I've seen it jump to 58 its just all around more smooth and steady framerate vs the dx.....

Here's a video where they run the sgs against the dx, n1 and evo. Clearly see in neocore that the sgs eats the others alive and also in real world testing on them. Sgs clearly even beats the dx.

Hello everyone.

Yesterday I saw that there was a new update of my favourite rom EnergyRom. So today I downloaded it, installed it, everything went well. Until I restarted my Raphael ( raph300 btw). It kept stucking on the bootscreen.. even after I installed the rom again it still stucked at bootscreen. So I began trying to fix it with installing my hardSPL again, that didn't work either, still no further than my bootscreen.. after a while I decided to downgrade my spl to my stock-spl. that went well but still stuck on bootscreen. So I tried to install my stock-rom from my provider: (t-mobile netherlands). But then the Rom updater stuck at 0% and I received the well-known [262] error. Suddenly I saw that I stupidly accidentally installed the cdma version of EnergyRom instead of the one I needed: GSM. That explained why it wouldn't boot in the first place. Now I tried to install the olinex hardspl, but the updater stopped everytime with the 262 error. I connected my device to another computer with windows XP, but there I saw that the computer recognized it as a CDMA device.

I know it is a stupid mistake, but is there anybody who knows what I could try? I also tried to hard-reset it, but that wouldn't help either. Any help would SO be appreciated :)

try to search a tool called MTTY maybe it helps
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] martijn5380:
Thanx, but how can I use this in combination with my problem?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] TomasNM:
As I remember 2 years ago,HardSPL is somehow depended on RadioROM. Maybe the ROM influenced the Radio with HardSPL,so try to reflash HardSPL again and Radio. Or it works absolutely not?

No, I can't update any ROM. So now i'm stuck with my stock SPL, therefore I wanted to Hard SPL my device, but that didn't work and since then I haven't been able to update any ROM.. would flashing on a different PC help maybe? now I am on a Win7 Pc but maybe it will work in WinXP..
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] TomasNM:
It is also not a bad idea to try different PC with XP to flash. I remember apx.1 month ago I tried to update HTC Trinity with WM6.5 ROM and it keeps failed with some errormessage(nowadays I can't remember which,but the syndroms was similar). Then I considered it as "bricked",until I tried another PC and everything wents correctly and the phone is in its productivity again. Yes,tfirst PC was company notebook with lot of safety kind of software(firewall,this,that,etc...) and the second one was my private laptop at home,just equipeed with regular antivirus software,all updates disabled(instead of AV).
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] TomasNM:
Btw,what about trying to flash official ROM,while you are with stockSPL? Maybe it helps you to startup again the device and then HardSPL again afterwards...
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] martijn5380:
yeah, that's what I thought too. I tried that also, also tried other custom roms btw before going to the stock rom. But with the stock rom it also stuck at 0% on the update ;)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] martijn5380:
so, today I tried to flash my rom with two different computers: one with win7 and one with winXP. didn't work either.. I read the MTTY thread and after I installed the custom driver I was able to connect trough MTTY. But what commands should I use to clear the ROM and is there any way that I can update my rom via MTTY?:D
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] NeoTokyo22:
search MTTY on the forums the first link has all you need to clear the rom and flash via MTTY
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Farmer Ted:
I think you may be screwed. You should've asked for help before you started messing with the spl. I don't understand why you thought reverting to the stock spl would be a good approach; it may well be the end of your device. What you should have done is just flashed a stock rom-that would probably have restored your device. Re-flashing hard spl is kind of pointless. The only thing that can over-write hard spl is the special 'stock spl' that olinex put together. It's not entirely stock, and I am not sure that it can be over-written by hard spl. The sole purpose of the 'return to stock spl' is so that you can flash a stock rom, then restore the spl so that you can return your device for warranty/service without being dinged for having unofficial firmware on the device. When you do this, you aren't anticipating getting the device back, so I'm not sure that hard spl can over-write it. I know there have been discussions on whether or not it can be over-written, but I'm not sure that there was ever a clear answer. Anyway, with the 'stock spl' on the device, you can't flash any cooked roms to the device. If you are very lucky, you may be able to flash a stock rom. So, my advice is to try a few stock roms.

I'm pretty sure you'll need hard spl to run mtty/task 29, so I wouldn't waste your time on that. I really doubt it works, and I'm not sure what it's going to buy you, anyway. You really need to be able to flash a rom to the device, and you can't flash a cooked rom with that spl. Maybe you can flash a stock rom, but maybe not. I'm not sure which carrier it will let you upgrade to, either.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] martijn5380:
yes I did, but the problem is that I can't access my Internal Storage, so I can't put any ROM's on that. Tonight I tried to flash a ROM via my SD card, but when I put my device in bootloader-mode it kept saying that it was 'loading...'
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Farmer Ted:
If the bootloader just says 'loading', then you probably need to either reformat the card to FAT32 or rename the image to RAPHIMG.nbh. Make sure you get the extension correct (not RAPHIMG.nbh.nbh).

But you're not going to flash anything with the stock spl, anyway. You need hard spl. I'm not sure you can even flash a stock rom off of the sd card-it probably needs to do it over usb.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] TomasNM:
I updated lot of smartphones already,but it was already few years ago. However I think,that SP's are flashed with MTTY. For that I needed ROM image in nbh file and with some commands you tell the PC,that it should flash it. Don't forget to disable USB connection in Activesync on XP in case MTTY will connect.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] martijn5380:
I already managed to connect my device with MTTY, the only thing I need to know is which commands I can use to flash the ROM through MTTY. It just sucks that I am not able to go to my Internal Storage, otherwise it would be much simpler I think.;)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] martijn5380:
Oke, thanx for your input. I tried to reset my ROM memory with mtty/task 29, but that didn't work, just like you predicted. So my next question is: 'Is there any app that can perform the task 29 without MTTY?'. I googled it, but I could only find the task 29 app for the HTC HD2.. And further, does anybody have a recovery ROM for my RAPH300? I tried the stock ROM on the XDA thread of HTC Raphael, but still got the 262 error:(
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Farmer Ted:
There's really no point in doing Task 29. The bad rom isn't what's killing you now, it's the SPL. It's going to block task 29, no matter what you try (that's one of it's jobs). You should just try to get hard spl back on the device, or try flashing every stock rom you can find. I tend to doubt that either will work, though. The only other option would be to look up the jump spl developed by PoF. I don't remember the name (search for threads started by him), but it was a universal soft spl that would temporarily CID unlock devices so you could flash custom roms. I've never used it before, and I don't know how it loads. You may not be able to load it onto your device with its current state, and it may not even be compatible with a Raphael (it's 3 or so years old), but it's probably worth at least checking out.

Edit: here's the jump spl link. I think you may have to activate it off the device.

[Streak 5 General] webpheret:
Is there a way to get the camera on the Streak to take pictures faster? I thought we had a fast phone here... why do I have to stay completely still for 15 seconds so I don't end up with blurry images?
[Streak 5 General] Troute:
If you're not exaggerating you have some serious problems. Either it's not focusing or there's something else eating up processor cycles.

My camera is faster than any phone I've had before, not as fast as a proper digital camera but fast enough.
[Streak 5 General] fone_fanatic:
i do experience a lag as well but not as bad as other phones and it is manageable. I've noticed if you increase the brighntess you don't have to hold too still and causes less motion blur in the pics.

Also look up vignette, its a 3rd party camera app which has many filters and effects.
[Streak 5 General] coreth5:
I have the exact same issue. The camera takes forever to take a picture. I use the fine 2048*1536 resolution and it takes a good ten seconds from button press to shot. If anyone has any advise on how to speed it up, let me know.

Coreth5
[Streak 5 General] MikeF74:
On 2.1 (build 8105) it takes about 2 seconds on a bright day when pressing the on-screen shutter button. When using the 2-stage hardware camera button, it takes close to a second to auto-focus on the half-press, and about a half second to take the shot after proceeding to a full press.

It's no speed demon. It seems noticibly slower than my iPhone 3GS on iOS4.

If it's taking 10 seconds, there's someting really wrong.

My settings are Fine, 5MP, GPS ON, and everything else on auto/default.
[Streak 5 General] Meltus:
I do agree that the camera on the streak is dreadful.

Especially compared to my Nexus which also has a 5MP Camera (ported over from the Desire) which takes absolutely amazing photos.

The Streak's photos are always way over saturated, over sharpened and the focusing takes a very long time.

Hopefully this will be improved in 2.2 or maybe we can even port over the camera from the Desire or something :)
[Streak 5 General] borijess:
Is it software that controls the camera function or hardware? Is it possible to have an app to improve the camera?
[Streak 5 General] Meltus:
I've tried many different camera apps on the market and whilst they do offer some improvement (image stabilization, etc.) It still is limited by the slow shutter speed.

I imagine it's either hardware controlled and can't be changed (which i doubt) or it's controlled from the Kernel or something (which could offer room for improvement).

I don't know enough about android really, so i could be completely wrong :p
[Streak 5 General] coreth5:
I've found a few apps that actually take faster pictures. Fast camera, which has a terrible resolution, takes pictures almost instantly. Retro camera (also low res) also takes pictures quickly. I think the camera speed must be limited by the hardware, which is unfortunate as I would say the camera is this device's weak point.
[Streak 5 General] BabyJay:
Ive also noticed my camera shutter pretty slow. Its slow indoors mostly. Outdoors is decent though.
[Streak 5 General] borijess:
I don't get why its a hardware issue. I tried the option in the camera setting to snap four photos in a row. It take great pictures and quickly maybe its because it lowers the resolution.
[Streak 5 General] cyruspy:
How did you set that resolution?, on my Dell with Android 2.2 I can only get 640x480 ubber ugly pictures...
[Streak 5 General] :
Make sure your camera is in 5 MP mode and not VGA...it will set to vga if you've switched to the front camera and then back...when mine does that it takes several seconds to take the picture and then they are grainy and blurry.
[Streak 5 General] cyruspy:
I don't see any option to set it up. I'm running Android 2.2 from Dell (no custom firmware)...
[Streak 5 General] marvin02:
See attached images.

[Desire General] Dragooon123:

[Desire General] sheik_yerbouti:

I bought it from a normal retail store.

Although it doesn't matter, I sent it back for replacement, should be getting one by Thursday.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pablo1215:
Ive flashed back to the stock rom many many times after playing with roms here and wanting to go back. Almost every time before I did I would use a zip through clockwork that wipes everything and I did this time too but for some reason after odin installs the stock firmware successfully the phone reboots as usual then goes through its checks and it always fails to wipe data. So my biggest issue is the phone is unusuable until I can do this because it boots to the tmobile screen and then the screen goes black but the phone is on as the capacative keys at the bottom still light up when touched. Any help on this would be great but its looking like Im going to have to get another one.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stepinmyworld:
I hope someone answered you.

It messed up because I flashed the Vibrant Voodo Lag-fix w/OC-Optimized 2.6.29 Kernel - Beta4 9/19/2010

To disable, simply place a new folder in the "Voodoo" folder on your SDcard (the internal one) name it "disable lagfix" (e.g /sdcard/Voodoo/disable lagfix") no extention just that exact name and reboot. After your phone boots and you check that your /data partition is again RFS you can re-apply any other kernel you were using.

now redo the stock kernel and stock rom via odin and you should be fine.

Hi. I had installed first JPC and because was to laggy and buggy i decided to downgrade to JM6/JM8. By the way JM8 runs very smoothly. After I install JM8 for example and i configured the APN settings + the market with the google acount and the telephote starts to syncronize, the market starts to download unwanted application from the market. In the end i says ”Download unsuccesfull”. I select for exemple barcode scaner form the market and press install.... the download will start and succesfull instaled. Meen while the market keeps downloading unwanted applications and in the end it says ”download unsuccesful”. After my first download the market will still find the application that i search but it does not start the download.

What should i do? Any post ”downgrade from JPC” does not resole my problem. I formated my internal and external SD, i pull out my external SD, nothing work.

after the first time that i install the JPC my SGS ask for the unlock code. I used this tutorial

„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„

7. My Phone asks me for a Unlock Code. Product Code has changed to KOR. What to do?

- Your Phone have to be rooted! Busybox is required!

- Start->Run-> cmd

- Change to your SDK\tools Directory e.g cd C:\Program Files (x86)\Android SDK\tools

- adb shell

- su

- cd /efs

- ls -al

If now nv_data.bak AND nv_data.bak.md5 are displayed, do the next few steps marked with (a)

If now .nv_data.bak AND .nv_data.bak.md5 are displayed (dot before filenames), do the next few steps marked with (b).

(a)- mv nv_data.bin nv_data.jpc

(a)- mv nv_data.bin.md5 nv_data.jpc.md5

(a)- mv nv_data.bak nv_data.bin

(a)- mv nv_data.bak.md5 nv_data.bin.md5

(a)- reboot

(b)- mv nv_data.bin nv_data.jpc

(b)- mv nv_data.bin.md5 nv_data.jpc.md5

(b)- mv .nv_data.bak nv_data.bin

(b)- mv .nv_data.bak.md5 nv_data.bin.md5

(b)- reboot

Now your Phone shouldn´t ask for a Code.„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„„

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sohaib17:
from 1st post C-10:

I flashed a new firmware using Odin (or Kies) and now my phone is acting weird (force closes etc)? Also, my settings are also still there.

Some firmwares that can be flashed via Odin and the firmwares that are flashed using Kies, do not touch your settings and they do not empty your cache and appdata partitions. As a results, there is data there from previous firmwares which may lead to unforseen complications. Especially so, if your previous firmware was based on a different android version (i.e. flashing from XWJM6(android 2.1) to XXJPC(android 2.2)). To resolve this, you have to do a factory reset according to FAQ#A1

and A-1 states:

How can I reset my phone?

On the Galaxy S the soft-reset is achieved by pressing and holding the power button. A hard-reset can executed by pressing and holding VolumeUP+Home+Power. There you will find the options "reboot", "apply sdcard:update.zip", "wipe data/factory reset" and "wipe cache partition".

The "wipe data/factory reset" option will restore your phone to the original configuration of the firmware YOU LAST INSTALLED (including any updates made via update.zip). This will NOT bring your phone back to the firmware installed when you originally bought it unless you haven't flashed your phone.

You can navigate the recovery screen using VolumeUp & VolumeDown and use the Home button to select.
