[Desire HD General] dazultra2000:
I know what you mean. When I upgraded from my K800i to my TyTNII Orange were really really great at giving me a good deal.

I actually used to work for Orange about 4 years ago, and I still have a warm place in my heart.

I'm defecting to T-Mobile this time so I can take advantage of Everything Everywhere, makes me feel like I'm getting closer to Orange again.

Orange Care was by and large one of the best aspects of their service. I used it on my old SPV M2000 which I crushed on the day I got it by tripping over a rope fence. Problem I had was that they had none to replace it with so I got stuck with an SEP910i - which was no replacement for the M2000. There was a big scandal about it and the media got involved and in the end I got a brand new M2000.

I would have stuck with Orange for my TP2, but it was going to take a couple of months for it to be available on Orange whereas I could get it on Vodafone instantly, and I was so fed up with my TyTN II that I begrudgingly jumped ship. Not that Vodafone have caused me any problems. Orange just had a bit more of a personal touch. Vodafone is very corporate and don't seem as 'fun' as Orange are.

My work Treo Pro is on Vodafone anyway, so it's no loss :)

Wow, I ended up talking a lot there.
[Desire HD General] riz157:
Orange are not ideal as they tend to mess with the handset too much for my liking. I did mention this in another thread but orange don't seem to have any information on DHD, one of the sell reps even suggested they might not even get it at all!!

mobilphonesdirect.com are quite good they have confirmed handset will be sim free and are offering the cheapest deals. Ordered mine today expected to get it on he 7th October, wait and see.
[Desire HD General] stormfury_2:
I'm pretty sure orange will get it since they're merged with T-Mobile. I read that they'll be rebranding around 2012 too. I can't imagine orange not getting it, it would be a mistake on their part in my opinion.

Hi

If you dont know what JIT is, read the next article:

http://androidandme.com/2010/02/news/jit-compiler-coming-to-android-sooner-than-you-think/

THE FOLOWING STEPS CAN BRICK YOUR TABLET, MAKE IT UNUSABLE OR SLOW. TRY YOURSELF. I ONLY TESTED IT IN A SMARTQ V5 WITH ROOT AND ACCESS TO /SYSTEM.

Hardware.

Smartq V5

Tests:

Reboot

Kill all the apps with Advanced Task killer

Wait 60 secs

Launch Linpack for android or Quadrant Advanced (every launch has a reboot before, and quadrant only runs cpu test)

Results:

Linpack without JIT = 2507 Mflops

Linpack with JIT = 4004 MFlops

Quadrant without JIT = 463 points

Quadrant with JIT = 645 points

To use JIT you must write this line:

dalvik.vm.execution-mode=int:jit

in /system/build.prop

To get back you only must change jit by fast at the end of the line.

To test if JIT is working you must get lines like this in logcat:

D/dalvikvm( 1212): Total arena pages for JIT: 2

All Androids 2.1 delivered with Tablets that have Telechips cpu seems that has the correct libraries, so must work with all of them.

Corvus.

Hi,

I'm looking for a leather case for my SGS. I would like to have something like the Zenus case, but I would prefer one protecting the upper corners too. I've seen SGP ones, but the right corner is not protected because this case is made for Asia, where SGS can have a TV antenna, and as far as I know there are not SGP cases with both corners protected (sgpstore.com). Finally, I've found Melkco ones (sold in carrymobile.com) especially Jacka ones and they are goodlooking. Any of you have tested some of them (Melkco, SGP)?

Sorry, but I am a new user and I can not post the links yet.

Thanks in advance and regards
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] VooDoo.maGiK:
I am using the sgp gariz atm and would have to say that the top right corner is still fairly protected due to the way the case hugs the phone, with only a couple millimetres at any angle being exposed. Any damage done would either be very unlucky or phone breaking regardless of a case.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] sgsthebest:
Thanks VooDoo.maGiK, I would consider it then...

regards
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Fornowagain:
I have the Zenus and the top corners are 'exposed', but the leather top cover sits further out than the corner and protects it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] mrwindmil:
Melkco case

I have a Melkco case and have made a video on youtube, unfortunately i am unable to post links as i am a new user :(

If you search "Galaxy S GT-I9000 Melkco Jacka type case hands on" in youtube its the first vid.

Anyway I have to say its a pretty good case and is a bit cheaper then the zenus one.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] sgsthebest:
Thanks and three questions

Thanks mrwindmil,

I've seen your review and I like the case...

Only three questions:

1. Is there any chance of scratching due to the clasp to the phone? (I think not because it is soft leather, is'nt it?)

2. How about the smell? Because I previously bought a case from pdair and it smells like petroleum or paint, nothing like true leather, and it's not very nice...

3. How long did it take to receive the case since you paid?

Thanks again and regards
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] mrwindmil:
1:Ive had no problems with scratching. The clip that holds the flap is soft leather on the inside. The whole outside of the case is soft leather, the inside being some sort of felt micro fibre.

2: In my opinion it smells like true leather and it also feels like true leather.

3: It took about a week to receive the item after I paid, which was too Australia.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] ebue:
I have one and I am totally satisfied. I work in an environment that I refuse to be without this case. With this case you do not need a screen protector as it is always protected, except when you are using it.

BTW, isn't there a thread that one can post a group shot of their phones and accessories?

HOWTO: Compile USB Host Enabled Kernel for the G1/Dream

Hi everyone,

I've got my new HTC Dream and I love it. It's my first Android based device. Now I'm running CyanogenMod 6 Rom.

So this is what I have:

Model number: HTC Dream

Andreoid ver: 2.2

Kermel ver: 2.6.34.5-cynogenmod

Mod version: CyanodenMod-6.0.0-DS

Build number: FRF91

I followed these guides to compile usb host enabled kernel. Please thank Andrew de Quincey, Sven Killig , Michael Mitchell and Frank Sposaro for their awesome work.

Preparing Android Build Environment

mkdir ~/cm-kernel-usbhost/

cd ~/cm-kernel-usbhost/

git clone git://github.com/CyanogenMod/cm-kernel.git

cd cm-kernel

git branch -r

git checkout --track -b cm-2.6.34 origin/android-msm-2.6.34

Patch the kernel source tree

wget http://sven.killig.de/android/N1/2.2/usb_host/android-kernel_msm-bca5320_Nexus-One_usb-host.patch

patch -p1 < android-kernel_msm-bca5320_Nexus-One_usb-host.patch

open ~/cm-kernel-usbhost/ cm-kernel /drivers/usb/host/ehci-msm7201.c and delete line 313

Export a variable for the ARM cross compiler

export CCOMPILER=~/android-ndk-r4b/build/prebuilt/linux-x86/arm-eabi-4.4.0/bin/arm-eabi-

Download kernel .config here and move to .config

Edit!: Use attached config file!

mv g1-cm-kern-2.6.34-usbhost.config .config

Then start the build:

make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=$CCOMPILER

At this point you should have a kernel stored in ~/cm-kernel-usbhost/cm-kernel/arch/arm/boot/zImage

Now, get the kernel on the phone:

I use fastboot to boot from RAM (not persistent)

~/android-sdk-linux_86/tools/fastboot boot arch/arm/boot/zImage

Look above at the output from the kernel build. The last thing completed is the module building (total = modpost). Notice the hierarchal structure of the compiled modules within the filesystem. Ex: /system/drivers/usb/core/usbcore.ko

Copy modules to sdcard

Now we need to load the modules into the running kernel.

Open a terminal emulator on the phone (connectbot also works, connect to local)

get root:

su

then load the usb core and ehci modules:

insmod /sdcard/usbcore.ko

insmod /sdcard/ehci-hcd.ko

You can download compiled kernel and modules here.

Hope that this guide will be helpful to newbies like me.

Regards,

Andy

NB!

This kernel currently disables USB mount and adb over USB.

usb-storage.ko module is loaded fine but when a usb flash drive is pluged-in the phone reboots itself.

You need a powered hub or Y-cable and USB A Female / A Female Adaptor to connect your usb devices.

Now wifi is working!

UPDATE: 11.12.2010

How to make an OTA package and switch between usb host and otg.

wget ww2.cs.fsu.edu/~mitchell/android/ZipBuilder.tar

tar -xvf ZipBuilder.tar

cd ZipBuilder

./builder.sh

rename update_signed.zip usbhost_signed.zip and copy it to sd card.

make a Nandorid backup and split boot.img using split_bootimg.pl

rename boot.img-kernel to zImage and copy it to ~/cm-kernel-usbhost/cm-kernel/arch/arm/boot/

than run ./builder.sh again

rename update_signed.zip to otg_signed.zip and copy it to sd card.

Now you can flash these zip from recovery. :)

Thank you very much for quick reply!!!

Now everything is OK!

I used fastboot to boot from RAM and then load the usb core and ehci modules.

And...yeeeeeeee now my G1 is usb host device!

I'm using Y-cable from my external HDD.

I must compile some modules like usb-storage and start testing. :)

My usb mouse works great with usbhid.ko.

Thank you again!

Usb-storage.ko depends on usb-libusual.ko

I'm curious if it's possible to run my ACR122 contactless smartcard reader.

I installed Debian Leny and ACR drivers on sdcard as I do on my PC.

This is the output when I run dmesg:

But I can't see it when I run lsusb.

This is the output of pcscdaemon:
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sonic74:
Strange, I haven't seen this module yet.

You have to do

mount -t usbfs none /proc/bus/usb
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kodovoimeji:
Hi again,

thanks for your help. It seems that usb-storage.ko depends on usb-libusual.ko only when this modul is selected. I compiled kernel with build-in usb-storage but no matter i do my phone reboots after I pluged-in a usb flash storage. /data/dontpanic is empty.

mount -t usbfs none /proc/bus/usb

Now I can use lsusb.

I looked at .config but didn't find something about smartcard reader so if I manage to sort out drivers in Debian will it start working?

Kind regards

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kodovoimeji:
Hi again,

at first I used Michael Mitchell's config file but than I decided to make my own config file:

1.Retrieve a working kernel config from your phone:

adb pull /proc/config.gz

gunzip config.gz

mv config .config

2.Customize the kernel:

make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=$CCOMPILER menuconfig

And now with my config file wifi is working.

There are CONFIG_USB_HIDDEV and CONFIG_HIDRAW options. I have basic skills in Linux so I can't help you.

[Android Software Development] djmcnz:
VM heap is a system variable so can not be changed on a per-application basis.

Because it is a system variable it can only be changed by a root process.

It is established and maintained in build.prop, it is read at boot into a variable space then can be changed, again by a uid=0 process only, in runtime (e.g. CM6 has a runtime option). The runtime option also edits build.prop.

[Android Software Development] tadzio:
Using so much memory (and even more, if you find a way to increase the memory available to your app, which I doubt) is not being very friendly to the other apps concurrently running.

The much better approach would be to reduce your memory requirements, for example by processing the files in small chunks.

Cheers

tadzio
[Android Software Development] nswenson:
Copy /system/build.prop to the sdcard root and modify 'dalvik.vm.heapsize' to the desired value. Default is 16m. You can safetly to 32m. Use the following commands to move the modified build.prop to the /system directory:

adb shell

su

mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system

mv /system/build.prop /system/build.prop.bak

cd sdcard

busybox cp -R build.prop /system

chmod 644 /system/build.prop

mount -o remount,ro -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system

sync

reboot

Alternatively, flash the CM6 ROM. Cyanogen has integrated Cyanogen Mods which allows you to modify the davik heap within system settings.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] match417:
Hey guys,

so I've been playing around with different FroYo builds since I got my phone a week ago (2.10.50.26 radio with Kumar 2.8 WinMo and Android 2.1). Only the first android that I installed works great, only problem is no ringtones, but I add an mp3 trim ringtone app and everything works fine after making a few ringtones, that isn't my question though. My question is concerning the other android builds that I put on my SD card after the first one, two other Froyo 2.1's and one 2.2. Every time I installed a new one I made sure to delete everything on my SD card (not format) and put a saved copy of all of my original SD card files excluding my Android folder. Then I made a new Android folder, extracted all of the files to my desktop, copied the files over to an Android folder on my SD card, and ran CLRCAD then Haret, all of the other builds haven't worked right or haven't installed, so I'm wondering if I got lucky on the first build working great and the other builds not working great on my phone, or if there are some residual files on the card or phone, hidden files or buried files in the WinMo ROM somewhere that are messing up the new builds that I try to install. I can reinstall the first one that I installed and it still works fine. I would really like to get Android 2.2 to work.
