Askes same question one page earlier :(

No answer :p
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Dexter_nlb:
What can say, i think you hit the "soft" spot here.... 2 persons in motrola forums doing real custom top-of-the-line-mods with more than just apk changes and graphics. (Nadlabak being the other one)

but i guess someone else is out there we just dont know about yet.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] yantz:
why are there alpha, beta and rc etc versions of almost every applications/programs in the world? the answer is simple. to find bugs/issues and to receive feedback/comments from testers/users. these alpha, beta or rc etc releases are actual working copies, but with several known bugs/issues. BUT they ARE released! with disclaimers of course. its up the the users to decide whether to continue using it or not. thousands of feedback from various batches of factories production lines is certainly much much better than tests by several people. and every decent developers knew they cant please everybody. that is why they released pre-released versions of their software, to get as much input as possible so they know where forward to move to. they knew, even if they were to release a full, bug-free version later, there would still be issues. worst still, rival developers might launch earlier and they loses the pioneer status.

i just want to say that its a sad day for the community. the people with the power to release the "clamp" put to us by motorola decided to follow suit and put a "clamp" on their own.

yantz

ps. i dont need a newer open recovery, i need a newer kernel
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] nico101:
That's why they should release kernel or whole rom to everyone or at least for devs like Dexter_nlb, Freeyo (author of Cronos mod) and others who I didn't mentioned (I don't use their mod's)

After reading about that they are unhappy with kernel performance I've looked at linpack & quadrant scores of Motorola Droid with Eclair and Froyo there is speedup not so big as in HTC devices but there is and if we compare performance of stock Eclair + JIT it's similiar to Droid's with Froyo (most of mod's are using JIT too)
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] lalit79:
i am really surprised that u havent got access to this rom....milestone rom modding and u have been synonymous for some many months now...

have expressed my discontentment in this matter to the g.o.t team
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Dexter_nlb:
did you compare Frenzy mod? i get usually around 1470-1500(1000Mhz, i think) in quadrant.

I did update some cache block writings not default but only small impact..

so is Droid 2.2 faster than the Semi-Froyo image i made?

(sorry, but i have not spent time checking up on it)
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] nico101:
No I tried to check scores mainly from stock roms I know that modified roms can get better(but not always:P) scores but I wanted to see how much faster was droid after upgrade to froyo and to compare droid froyo vs MS eclair + jit

This situation is starting to annoy me You and Freeyo should have access to new kernel... (and I won't say that i would like to have a look at it too :) )

I took the French one, only thing not ok for now is the hardware keyboard in qwerty (one that numbers don't worked) => i put it in azerty from got's OpenRecovery V2

I had change the density to 200, i didn't find the got's theme for now ^^ => it's in "Stock GOT Features Menu –> Theme Menu –> Install Theme"

no reboot for now, wifi work well.

sometimes i´ll get to 70 fps but once in a while 30 ... i tried all governors it happens in all of them ...
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] nikosblade:
honestly, this is the best rom i ever flashed on my phone. it outperforms every rom including 2.1, custom 2.2 + it has the sexiest theme ever. and guess its just a damn first leak. :eek:
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] leobg:
nadlabak is at full steam on the CM6 beta - check his site: http://android.doshaska.net/cm6

Yay!
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] cbstryker:
The GOT 2.2.1 firmware release is amazing. With the JIT beta hack and OCed to 1000Mhz I was getting max 10.3Mflops on linpack in the stock 2.1 (sometimes even 9.5). Now with the 2.2.1 I'm getting 14Mflops. And I do notice the overall speed increase in the whole system.

I also applied the Memhack from the 2.1 menu (within GOT's OR 2.0) and of course I did a nandroid backup first, but it seems to work just fine. It freed up about 50MB (79MB from 29MB) and so far I haven't noticed an issue.

The jury is still out on the battery life, I've only just flashed it yesterday so I'll play with it over the next few days and let everyone know how I'm doing with battery life (if anyone cares that is... lol).
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] gemini002:
Battery sucks bad on this try cyno rom much better but thanks for leak got
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] cbstryker:
I think I've noticed a bit of extra drain, but I can't be sure. I went for a 2hr run today (training for a marathon) and had Mixzing, Runner on the whole time and Tweetdeck and Handcent running ever so often, plus I had Bluetooth, WiFi and GPS all running and after 2hrs I went from 70% to 30%.

So maybe a bit extra.

Also, has a version of Cyano been released on the 2.2.1 ROM yet?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] gemini002:
Yes he updated in forum I'm running it now

How awesome would it be if we were just sitting here, waiting for 2.2 to arrive, and then BAM!! The update brings 2.3 :p
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Nemesis259:
I wish 2.3 on ma milestone.... drools.....
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Dexter_nlb:
Sadly milestone is a low performer between new models with low mem and officially low speed cpu..

So chances for a 2.3 or even 3.0 , is probably less to none..

squezeing another 2.3 out of milestone sounds interesting but its already fighting battery issues on latest kernel and if the hardware cannot deliver with the omap chipset, we are not gonna see another update with android. but thats going to be on milestone2 and forward..
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] DrZippit:
Quoted for the truth.

Sad, but true.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Nemesis259:
someone get the bootloader unlocked.....
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] greglord:
wait, wasnt G2 locked in the same way as Milestone?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Paitor:
Ok, I just feel that an official version will be more safe to wait for than using a version that is homebrew and seems to newer be as good because the locked bootloader prevents it.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Paitor:
Wasen't 2.2 supposed to be faster than 2.1 on the same hardware?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] leobg:
It is supposed to be. Dexter talks about 2.3 and up. The 256MB RAM is what burries us. Only if it had 512MB - things would have been lot more different!

Let's hope official 2.2 will bring a good kernel (and Motorola at least release source codes) so we can refine custom ROMs based on stock kernlel as much as we can. That would be it from our Milestones. I guess we have to move on :)

Also - if Motorola reads this - it would be very nice if you guys release an update which unlocks the boot loader once phone reaches end of life (which I would say is end of Q1 2011) so at least enthusiasts like us here could squeeze as much as possible from the hardware we spent our money on. It won't cost you(Moto) a penny. Please!

Not sure what is taking so long to release the 2.2. Droid in the States forgot how long ago took it! (not to mention it has unlocked boot loader...)
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] max_3000:
There's a month and a half left till q4 2010 ends.. I have a feeling that motorola will push it to q1 2011.

Check post #90 on this very same thread for official information from Motorola on release dates. I am sorry if you don't like the 'ranges' they provide, sure enough they are quite wide.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Paitor:
I doubt they will relese an update that will unlock the bootloader. Why would they risk potentially new purchases of new phones by making an old model live longer. And of course it will cost them. Just lifting an extra finger for a paid employee will cost them money and time.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] COMPACTER:
So any news if the official update to 2.2 is coming soon?

i am on telus and would love to have a new update to fix some stability issues and the damn TTS is a piece of crapola.

I am tired of this robot sounding phone, also is there anything better to use for the voice dialer? the stock one is a serious piece of garbage and takes forever to even startup.

I'm in a mobile development program at school (College) and I've finished my iPhone portion, purchased my developers license, and now we've started Android development.

My sister-in-law gave me her T-Mobile MyTouch 3G (she just upgraded) and I'm trying to get this sucker so I can develop on it. I've had it for a couple days and just had time today to mess with it. I purchased some DUMMY SIMs from a Hong Kong site and I'm trying to get the phone to just let me add apps.

I "seriously" just want to use this device (versus the CRAPPY Simulators) for my development classes, but I can't seem to figure this out.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ekoandrew:
#1 unlock inside

#2 universal androot the phone

#3 install a lite rom like CM series

#4 you might need to upgrade to an engineer kernel(might be adb). Check version on fastboot.

Stop by development forum for your questions.

What school is this you are taking? Google offer free development Program to school and offer large discount on developer phones also.

[General Questions and Answers] NovaTouch:
Hey guys,

I'd like to thank you for a great job that you're doing.

I've just bought a second hand HTC TOUCH HD (Branded orange) to get on the smartphone market but there are a few things i need help with.

I've got Windows 6.1, is there anyway I can upgrade to 6.5 or a more recent version?

Also my ROM version is 1.19.61.1WWE, i went on the HTC website for upgrades and it states that my phone is not compatible for any of the upgrades on the TOUCH HD, any way around that?

Basically I need my processor to be faster, i dont want my phone to boot up every single thing when i turn it on, and I want to add loads of application like games etc...

Any help is much appreciated, need more info, dont hesitate,

Thanks again,

Just ordered my HDMI cable and wanted to know is it possible to watch movies from the internet on my TV. Like hulu or megavideo? Idk if there r any hacks or custom rims I'm new sorry. And thanks
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jc8081:
Anyone have an answer? Please
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lovethyEVO:
Works fine for me. Youtube and other movie sites that I frequent play through hdmi to my hdtv.

The image displayed on your tv will be the size that would he displayed on your evo so don't expect any kind of fullscreen display. The evo acts as the movie controls when using the hdmi video out.

Looks great on my 55 and 60, don't know jow it would look on something smaller.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jc8081:
Thanks. But your saying that its only gonna be like 5 in on the screen? Bc that's how big it would be on the evo..? Kinda confused
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lovethyEVO:
Yes that's exactly what I am saying. The screen resolution that would be displayed on the evo is what would be displayed on your tv. Slighty bigger of course on the tv but not fullscreen.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] newsoundwave:
What ROM are you using that allows this functionality!??!

I believe Youtube should work, and so should any video that's played through the system's media player, but not the hulu app (The hulu app is just a tweaked browser). HDMI out doesn't show what's on your Evo's screen, it shows what's either playing through the built in system player (so RockPlayer, etc. doesn't show) or what the default slideshow app is showing.

Also, don't see why you can't fill your screen with the video. On all of my TVs, I can generally stretch out my videos to the extent of the screen's edges at about 720p.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lovethyEVO:
I think you're confusing yourself. I never said the evo screen is displayed. The op asked about video being displayed through hdmi and I said it works fine for me.

As for not being fullscreen, the image passed from the evo through hdmi gets pixelated as it is. Do you really want to stretch that? I pass my hdmi cable through my denon receiver which does not upconvert hdmi signals....only analog. Even at that, stretching through my receiver or tv distorts the already pixelated image. But hey, if you want to stretch your images thats on you.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kzibart:
The Evo's screen resolution doesn't determine the resolution of the video being sent out through HDMI. That's determined by the resolution of the video file or stream itself. For instance, I play a lot of 720p videos from vimeo.com, and they appear to stream through the Evo and out the HDMI as their full 720p. And I'm 100% sure that 720p video files playing directly from the Evo go out as 720p through HDMI. I do that all the time and it looks great. Of course, a lot of stuff on youtube and other sites aren't very high resolution, or you may be served lower resolution versions since you're on a mobile platform. Those would look like crap if they were stretched to full screen on a big TV. But my point is, it's the video site, not the Evo or its screen size that determines it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lovethyEVO:
Again, someone who is confusing themselves. I never said the evo's screen size determines what is displayed. I said what would be displayed

meaning the resolution of the video file on the evo screen when watching browser videos (such as youtube, vimeo, etc) would be displayed. I said don't expect fullscreen which pertained to MOST video sites (youtube as an example) that do not stream full 720p video all the time. If you are watching a true 720p file on the evo and output it through hdmi of course it will be fullscreen 720p. When watching youtube videos and you watch the sd versions it won't be fullscreen.

The op never asked about 720p videos in the first place only simply hdmi and browser videos. Like I said, most browser videos are not in full 720p. And if you have to stretch a file to fit a 720p screen it's not a native 720p.

I was answering the op staying within the bounds of his question but everyone else had to take it beyond what he asked. No where in the op's title or first post did he mention anything about 720p output through hdmi. The question was simply enough if hdmi worked for browser videos.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lovethyEVO:
The simple answer is it should since it would most likely play through the stock media player.

I use a modified stock rom and kings kernel so ymmv depending on the way you have your system setup. But if you are on a stock rom and a kernel that supports hdmi out you should be fine. I am work now so can't test megavideo but youtube, vimeo, etc. all play fine for me through hdmi.

Hi All

I've been reading XDA for a while, but never posted before - today though, I noticed something really odd with my X10

...it seems part of the back panel is magnetic (it started picking up paper clips!) - i'm not sure if it's always done this or it's something new

It's a very specific spot though - if you pull the back panel off, it's the small rectangle just above the bit that says microSD (though it does it with the back panel on too)

I was wondering if anyone can help me with the following...

1) what's under the rectangle

2) is it supposed to be that magnetic

cheers
