Im really anxious for this lag fix to be back up and I hope it will be soon, it sounds great!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] andars05:
I understand. I mean that because the write tests are technically writing to a RAM buffer, the write speeds are outrageous. There is no stall on filesystem benchmarks. Changing the filesystem gives numbers that are slightly more reasonable, and a slight stall is noticeable when preforming the benchmark. I'm not denying that the loopback fix doesn't help to alleviate lag! :P It ultimately has to write to the underlying RFS filesystem though.

So was wondering is there any work/progress on using this in Froyo even though froyo not released yet? :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Mahagon Coral:
But the ext4 part is not compatible with Froyo ^^

Just tried, maybe I missed something :confused:

Already using that one on JPC ... but JM7 with supercurio's fix seems to be faster than this. :-/
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dkcldark:
Ok. Im working on froyo and now, struggling on module compiling.

When these modules are compiled successfully, it's the time to play with froyo.

Btw, does anybody know how to cope with these errors?

insmod unknown symbols contig_page_data

insmod unknown symbols mem_map

If only i could get the .config file from the froyo kernel.....

mm/memory.c

#ifndef CONFIG_NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES

struct page *mem_map;

EXPORT_SYMBOL(mem_map)

...

=> disable CONFIG_NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES in .config

for contig_page_data, same thing, disable need multiple nodes (reference is mm/page_alloc.c struct pglist_data ... contig_page_data EXPORT_SYMBOL(contig_page_data)

Next time, you just need to do that:

grep -r EXPORT_SYMBOL\(symbol_name\) linux-blah/

what about the repacking of the initramfs ? ^^ I don't feel like losing hair on it if you've already done it

This is intended for people which run KIES and device is not seen, neither the message "connecting..." appear on KIES, and MTP application does not start on Samsung galaxy.

If you moved com.android.* and com.sec.android.* into some path which is not /data/data you may have this problem. At least this is what happend to me, after I moved file back MTP start and Kies recognize the device.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g0c:
never moved anything it simply does not work on Windows 7 32bit.

no magic helped ... no formating internal sd nor anything else ... i've read whole fracking day on the web how to deal with this issue and none of the solution worked.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Mayuki:
disabling launcherpro fixed it for me.

im told other launchers cause issues too
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] BronzedDroid:
Eh, really, problems on Win 7 32bit? Haha that's so strange because it works almost flawlessly on Windows 7 64bit. Perhaps the first time there's better support for 64bit than 32bit.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lealdud1:
Yes, you MUST run TWlauncher (standard launcher in Touchwiz) and if you got Windows 7, you might wanna download some third party drivers.

I'm on Windows 7 64bit and I downloaded the win7 x64 samsung galaxy s drivers form softpedia.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rocketpaul:
well the mtp driver doesnt install on my 64 bit computer.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Finguz:
It works on windows 7 32 and 64 bit just fine :)

No third party drivers and no magic. It's all down to individual system config otherwise it would be the same for everybody.

Incidentally, there is an update out for Kies taking it to version 1.5.1.10074_45 ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MadBob:
have you googled for FileSearcherforKiesFix and tried that? the only thing that fixed it for me.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] poolcin:
Strange. Kies works fine on my both computers: Win7 x64 and WinXP. Had some issues before, but new Kies works without any issues.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] chillyaar:
hello all,

i got the gt-i9000 like 2 months back the kies s/w was workin fine for the first few days now the app itself fails to lauch even if the fone is not connected.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled kies s/w like a million times.

The installation is always successful but when i click on the kies icon to start the program nuthin happens :s

Please help.

Oh yeah i am running Win7 32bit legit.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] alferret:
Works fine for W7 32bit flawlessly to. Also for me on 2.2 it works under launcher pro as well, added bonus of not having to use home switcher (or the like) every time I connect the phone :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] andrewluecke:
It works fine on my copy of Windows 7 64bit, but I have to switch to touchwiz, and go to driver recovery in the kies menu.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] _JKay_:
I use XP at home and at work.

From home with JP6 and Kies 1.5.3.10093_82 I can connect fine using a cheap USB cable and with phone having Samsung Kies as default running LauncherPro.

At work Kies cannot connect to the phone... it just says connecting, please wait.... all the time, its wierd...

I guess I have to remove all the USB hubs on the work computer.... Will install Windows 7 Pro 64 bit at work soon so... maybe ill just wait until then...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kicsihuszar:
Kies not working with LauncherPro. You have to create a shortcut to MTP Application, when you connected the phone and selected Kies need to start with this shortcut.

This is the only way to connect Kies with LauncherPro.

Somewhere I read about this, LaucherPro not recognised like TW.

Hope this helps.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zhiyingzhu:
The only way I have ever ever gotten kies was following these steps:

1. Completely close kies

2. Connect your phone

3. Open up device manager, find I9000 (should be under portable devices), right-click and disable (if device manager lags after you click disable then unplug the phone)

4. Replugin the phone and wait for it to say connected on the phone's screen

5. Re-enable I9000 in device manager

6. Fire up Kies and it should connect

These steps have worked every time for me

ps: I'm on Windows 7 x64

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gibsonus:
This issue has become rediculous. Samsung fail so much with this usb ****. I run Win 7 32 bit and kies previously worked and even when it occassionally wouldn't I used odin.

Now unfortunately the phone just isn't recognised even after various driver and spftware reinstallations and registry deletions etc... etc... etc....
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] LeeRiley:
This question has probably been asked a hundred times over, so sorry for asking again. I've just created a wallpaper that I very specifically want, however I want the whole image in place, I don't want to hae to crop the image or choose a part of it, I want it all! I've created the wallpaper with 240x320pixel dimensions. I'm really struggling with this and as funny as it may sound, it means alot that I have this certain image on my phone.

Any help with this would be perfect, thanks in advance!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] LeeRiley:
Scrap that, I just done some research, something I should've done prior to creating this thread, and found that if you create the canvas with 620x480pixel resolution, and place the image you want in the center of the canvas, it allows you to crop the section you want without distorting it atall!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Promet3o:
Maybe it's a live wallpaper
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elektrisk:
Hi.

I am following this video tutorial on how to sideload apps on the Samsung Captivate with AT&T.

youtube.com/watch?v=Zo9BIRXvNfw

But, my dbdata folder is empty when I view it with DroidExplorer. It was also empty when I used ES File viewer. Why might this be?

I did install the Clockwork mod, but I factory reset my phone.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkamikaze:
Those files are pretty much secure.. the only way I know to see those files are through Root Explorer.

if you want to sideload apps the easiest way is to just use Wonder side loading machine or something.. or if you have droid explorer.. go to batch installer.. then choose the .apk you want to install ( make sure your phone is in debugging mode)

Btw.. you can't really use droid explorer.. unless you have busy box.. and I believe busybox requires being rooted. So IMO, use the sideloader wonder machine

[EVO 4G General] faxvouy:
Saturday 4th i turned on 4g on my evo in Newark penn station and Surprise!!!! It worked pretty good, i lost the signal when i was walking to the prudential center... about 3 blocks away... but today i was in the NJPAC (2blocks away towards the other direction) and 4g is pretty good while outside the building.
[EVO 4G General] YoungAceAtlanta:
Yes i was down there later on tonight, By route 21 near The center and Nj pac you should get full bars of 4G, also on route 21 in on the line of Belleville and Nutley
[EVO 4G General] faxvouy:
Yes, 4g coverage in the area is pretty decent

Thankyou

Hodai
[HD2 General] ddgarcia05:
Click the link in my sig and at the bottom of the first post you'll see a "ROM / Android ralated...." section and in the list is a "how to install roms" guide. Follow it and I'd suggest you go with an NRG / Energy Rom found here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=591784 they're safe and fast. If you get stuck just search for help or ask if you can't find it. Feel free to post a question in my thread. I'm on vacation and so I'm on here a lot.

The only way you'll brick your phone is if install a radio with XX.XX.51.XX in it. Don't install a .51. radio. Also Don't install a radio lower than 2.08.XX.XX. That too will brick your phone. All the rest your good. I've attached a image of the some random radios so you can see what I'm talking about.

After you conquer the flash, installing android is stupid easy.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] thetoady:
I know that cyanogenmod supports wma in the music player, I was wondering if anyone knows if that be easy or difficult to port to xdandroid? (or a good way to get wma support)

thanks!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] thetoady:
so, made a bit of progress. I looked at a cyanogen rom

I copied over the pvasf related files (file format for wma/wmv files) (in system/etc and system/lib)

and the libomx_wma/wmv decoder files (in system/lib)

and now I'm playing wma files perfectly on my sprint touch pro 2.

though, don't have meta parsing and it seems cyanogen does have support for that.

any chance this can be rolled into an xdandroid build?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
WMA is probably the WORST format for media. Statistics have shown that it's even worse than MP3 for acoustic reproduction.

I would advise avoiding that codec like the plague.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] thetoady:
#1, I've read many things that seem to imply that its not worse than mp3 (and definitely better at low bitrates)

#2, does it matter if I already have a lot of music in WMA format that isn't DRMd so that reencoding it would make things worse (I didn't choose WMA for these tracks, but I dont want to reencode)

#3, why would it be an issue if as I've shown support already exists in android and can be easily included at the loss of a small amount of space (been playing wma all day on my xdandroid sprint touch pro 2)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
Eh, no reason it shouldn't be supported in Android, I just know that it's awful - especially at low bitrates.

OGG Vorbis and AAC are the ONLY codecs I would trust at any bitrate that would be considered 'low'...

Let me find the research...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] thetoady:
ok, so we agree. I wouldn't use wma for anything I make either, its more of a historical artifact that I have it (and was mostly a windows mobile user before when I collected it, so didn't mind).

I'm not sure how to get metadata working, but not the biggest deal
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] KGBoston:
Is this working yet?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] thetoady:
if you follow my steps, it works to play (though doesn't get any info out of the files).

I've stopped doing anything with this as bought an Epic 4G.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] kwoodyusa:
I have tons of wma's. This would be great if I could use them with out converting them to MP3's
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] sad0felix:
Hi kwoodyusa, I guess you'll have to tweak your build by hand, following thetoady's directives in post 2.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] thetoady:
what was said, it was pretty easy, I just copied files over and then it just worked.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Miami_Son:
How about posting those files here? Please?:p
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] thetoady:
1) download hero rom from

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Latest_Version

2) unzip it.

3) files are where I say they are in post #2 (though for system/lib they are system/lib/libpvasf*
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] genaldar:
Thats funny every thing I've ever read says AAC is the worst. and WMA beats MP3. And lets face it OGG is a non-factor.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
lol we're talking about the same bitrates right? WMA has a 'lossless' option, so if you're comparing that to MP3 then it's not apples-to-apples anymore...

I mean let's take one file. Compress it to 64kbps. Same song, same bitrate, different formats - which would perform the best? AFAIK, OGG would be #1. Then AAC, then MP3, then WMA last... WMA is a horrible format from what I remember reading, but I can't find the dang report I read - which was years ago, to be honest... But MP3 is 17 years old...

Hello,

I bought a T-Mobile G1(it was originally donated for testing of a Open-Source project ) for tying to reverse engineer an unlock code calculator.

Since those scam sites did it i may able to it to.

So i am here to asking it if bought some codes ( and it worked of course ) if you can paste it here and the respective IMEI to help me get some relations whit it.

If you that someone did a calculator before ( and is Open-Source of course please tell me ). Also another ways of passing the unlock will be welcome.

I will keep you informed of my study.

[G1 Android Development] lbcoder:
If you want to share your code and imei with him, I suggest doing so in private. This is personal information that should not be shared in public.

[G1 Android Development] pulser_g2:
Unlock codes bought online come from HTC's database. There is no algorithm, as they are randomly generated and assigned. So these efforts will not get you anywhere, I'm afraid.

And don't post IMEIs in public - someone can easily block your phone with it, certainly in the UK...
[G1 Android Development] wrsg:
a question comes to mind, how were the old htc unlockers created e.g. for the hermes and the kaiser? they must have used algorithms otherwise how else would they have been possible? if thats true, could there be an algorithm that cracks the random generation of the unlock codes for the HTC android phones?
[G1 Android Development] Chainfire:
If you are referring to the free apps that unlocked the phones, as far as I know (so maybe not completely correct) they actually crack the phone to make it think it is not locked, they don't calculate the code.
[G1 Android Development] jtom617:
i was going to post mine. i would have loved to contribute but why not make the info public.. it cannot hurt anything
[G1 Android Development] Chainfire:
IMEI's are actually open to abuse. I'm not saying the thread starter isn't trustworthy, but I don't know for sure that he is. If you want to cooperate with the opening poster, that's fine, and it's your risk - private message him the information. In that case, the info isn't public for potential abusers either (who can just Google for these numbers).
[G1 Android Development] trock62:
Would be nice but not possible
[G1 Android Development] wrsg:
do you think a similar thing is possible on g1/other htc android phones?
[G1 Android Development] Chainfire:
Probably, but I'm not an expert on this subject, so my opinion doesn't really count :)
[G1 Android Development] lbcoder:
Everything is in flash.

It is a matter of figuring out WHERE in flash, and being able to read/write to those addresses. The JTAG thread is a good starting point.
[G1 Android Development] smithfb3:
It would be just as easy to call HTC and beg.

Otherwise call TMobile and wait patiently for them to get around to call HTC, for HTC to get around to find it and sent it to TMobile, for Tmobile to get around to e-mail you the code.

I just thought it was funny people publishing their codes and the Mods running in to delete them, for their own good.

[G1 Android Development] itsjefflol:
Ahh I didn't realize anyone could do anything with your imei, anyhow that was my old phone's imei and unlock code, the phone's in a million pieces anyway so no harm done I guess :)
[G1 Android Development] funkydrummer:
Older phones used an algorithm to calculate an unlock code. The algorithms got cracked and the unlockers appeared.

HTC took a different approach of assigning a random lock code to each phone and retaining a private database of the IMEI/unlock codes which they could tightly control.

So a software solution is unlikely, but as you can get the unlock code through normal channels, it's not really necessary.

That page is really, really old. The CERT advisory is from 2001, and the page is a part of netlib, which references the Netscape browser. I would be surprised if any browser now is blocking any application from communicating through a port. You might check your firewall rules.

[Touch CDMA General] SuperJMN:
It has been a problem for me with some builds. I suggest you to make a backup with some app like Titanium Backup and reinstall Android. Try with different kernels if you still have the problem. Don't worry for the moment!
[Touch CDMA General] tom13mcpherson:
I have had this problem a few times. I still can't quite figure out exactly what makes it happen but it seems to be something to do with sleep. My solution is to restart and go into NAND then do a backup apps and then quit. something gets woken up in the screen and it starts to work again. No idea why, it just does. Good luck.
[Touch CDMA General] thehelios:
So I guess my touchscreen is just dead. I reinstalled android, reflashed my phone for the froyo rom, and I even flashed a windows rom onto my phone but nothing. I even opened my phone to see if it was connected properly to the mobo but all seems right.

On the windows rom, when it does the screen calibration, I can mash the crap out of my screen and I guess it picks up some sort of signal every now and then because the crosshair moved.

If anyone knows anything about this, please reply. I don't really want this to be the end of my vogue. :( It's been a good 3 years so far!
