[Droid 2 General] want a droid:
I had it originally posted in themes and apps. Not really sure why it was moved. Its not a theme or an app but rather a theme request which should still fall under "themes....and apps."

Not going to get much feedback here guessing that draya frequents the themes and apps section.

Oh well guess I won't see this theme on my d2.

MOD EDIT

Bump
[Droid 2 General] theecho:
Wantadroid,

Impaler is the moderator of the forums and there is a reason why he moved it. The thread is getting noticed, however we have a lot on the plate right now. We are working on testing themes, porting the themes, getting other stuff ready. Please utilize the bump option if needing to keep the thread on top, however an insult to staff is not needed. Furthermore, the main porter is draya1986, who is on a Droid 2, and the theme you posted is a droid x theme. Please stay tuned and we will update as soon as possible for if we can port this theme.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daktah:
how would i change what power+volup/down do on boot? ie change p+vdown from bootloader to recovery?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _MetalHead_:
Why on earth would you want to do that???
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daktah:
Because I'd like to be able to boot straight into recovery instead of having to go through hboot and there's no reason to have hboot and fastboot set since you can go between them no matter which one you boot from
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _MetalHead_:
Download the app Hot Reboot. It lets you reboot right into recovery, among other things.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daktah:
I have quickboot so that's not what I'm looking for
[Desire Themes and Apps] beartiger:
I used to live in Denmark where the banks provide you with a coloured wallet card on which you write a load of numbers including your 4 digit pin however, only you know the location of the four numbers you need.

I have seen an iphone app or two that do the same thing:

http://www.mochasoft.dk/iphone_pin.htm

or

the HideYourPin app on this page http://bragoszewski.com/iphone/

Basically I would love to know if there is a similar app for the Android platform.

Regards

David P
[Desire Themes and Apps] beartiger:
If this isn't already available, if someone can make it (preferably like the top link in the post above) I would be eternally grateful and you never know, it could make you a few bucks on the market as well :-)

Cheers

David P
[Desire Themes and Apps] Kameo:
I agree, that would be a nice app.
[Desire Themes and Apps] troedi:
good idea... i think it's not very hard to implement... i will try it this weekend
[Desire Themes and Apps] beartiger:
Fabulous and thanks in advance for trying :-)
[Desire Themes and Apps] troedi:
did you get my PN last friday? i have a first version that needs to be tested, an translated to correct english :)
[Desire Themes and Apps] beartiger:
just seen the message and am grabbing it now. Will test and get back to you by tomorrow :-)

Thanks again

David P
[Desire Themes and Apps] beartiger:
@troedi,

It looks great and I wouldn't even change the english within the instructions very much. I will send you via PM later on today any changes I think would be benefificial regarding the wording.

How difficult would it be to have multiple patterns? So you would start the program and then have a list of your saved PINS, one per pattern, and selecting the required PIN opens up the appropriate pattern for viewing or editing?

Regards

David P
[Desire Themes and Apps] LukeHandle:
An absolutely brilliant idea!

And, could you possibly make this an 'open' beta? :) I would love to start using this.

Thanks.
[Desire Themes and Apps] troedi:
thanks for your comments! i think it isn't very difficult to manage more than one pattern. should be realisable in a few hours! as far as i can remeber :) i've coded the app well-structured enough.

@LukeHandle: i will send you a pn in the next minutes
[Desire Themes and Apps] Kameo:
Why didn't you post it here, so we can all be beta-testers and thus the app will be out sooner?
[Desire Themes and Apps] troedi:
ok... you've convinced me :)

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2817943/Pin%20Code%20Keeper_beta.apk
[Desire Themes and Apps] beartiger:
Let me know when you have the multi pattern version up and i'll give that a test too and well done, looking great so far :-)

David P
[Desire Themes and Apps] Kameo:
ok, gonna give it a try and post back :D
[Desire Themes and Apps] beartiger:
Any news on a multi pattern version of this app? I couldn't find fault with your help text so far hence not sent any PM with verbiage.

Looking forward to testing the latest version once it's ready :-)

David P
[Desire Themes and Apps] troedi:
the multi-pattern version is nearly complete, but there are little bugs when saving a pattern! but i can't spend much time on the app the next two days. I think the app will be ready for testing on friday evening!!
[Desire Themes and Apps] beartiger:
oooo nearly time for more testing :-)
[Desire Themes and Apps] troedi:
>>> Here it is <<<<

Enjoy testing my app and please tell mi if you think it's ready for the app market :)

[Desire Themes and Apps] beartiger:
Downloading and installing now :-)

Thanks again and will feed back shortly

David P
[Desire Themes and Apps] beartiger:
Instructions are great.

2 things to mention though:

1. It wouldn't install over the top of the previous version even though it identified that it was an updated version so I had to uninstall the old and install the new.

2. Might I recommend that on each patter, net to the Pin Code Kepper in the title bar, you also add the pattern name given when a user edits the words "New Pattern" to something to better remind themselves?

So the title bar Might look like this (see attachment)

Kind Regards

David P
[Desire Themes and Apps] troedi:
thanks for your reply! THIS version should install over the old one... and I added the pattern name to the title bar!

testing.....
[Desire Themes and Apps] beartiger:
Congrats!

Installed over the top, pattern title on each, saved all previous pattern.

I think you are ready for the marketplace!

I haven't seen anyone else providing you with feedback here, but from my point of view, this is exactly what I asked for when I opened this thread. Well done troedi!!!!!

regards

David P
[Desire Themes and Apps] troedi:
thank you very much for feedback and testing! so i think i have to remove the beta-version message :)

i will publish the "final" version in marketplace in the evening!
[Desire Themes and Apps] beartiger:
Let me know when it's up :-)
[Desire Themes and Apps] troedi:
it's up now!
[Desire Themes and Apps] homeplayer:
Great app, love it.

pls make a update, to not only add numers, but all letters and %^&* dont know how thats called lol,

so you could add a username and passwords in there as well
[Desire Themes and Apps] troedi:
mhhh... how do you want to "hide" a username or password in a pattern of letters? everybody will find the word by looking at you pattern a few minutes?!?
[Desire Themes and Apps] homeplayer:
well, thats not true, depents on the username, and the user name is your reminder where to find the password, i can think of many ways of hiding it, make it posible for me and ill show you
[Desire Themes and Apps] troedi:
that is depending on your donation :D

in the current version pictures are used to display for each colour/number - combinations. So allowing letters and additional characters is not as easy as you may think. Making pictures for each letter in 4 colours would go beyond the scope of this app. but i will think about impoving the way how the tiles are shown. maybe there will be an update for you
[Desire Themes and Apps] homeplayer:
omg, i was sure, that a colored circle was drawn and a number printed on it.

my bad LOL
[Desire Themes and Apps] troedi:
this would have been the better solution :) but I used the "TileView" shown in the "Android Snake Example" and therefore i created a picture for every number/colour combination :)
[Desire Themes and Apps] homeplayer:
I will follow your progress on this one

keep it up
[Desire Themes and Apps] LukeHandle:
Improvement

A possible modification you could make; On a first run a dialog box appears with the instructions how it works. This would be useful for those who come accross the app in the market but are not familiar with the concept.

And I have downloaded the market version, it installed right over the beta. Thanks.
[Desire Themes and Apps] troedi:
thx for your reply! do you mean the same instruction screen that can be displayed via the options menu?
[Desire Themes and Apps] Beaverman20:
i just looked at the app, seems awesome, tho i would request a better grapich instead of the boring circles, maybe use some shadowing, or some squares, just to keep it from getting boring to look at ;D the iphone in the picture seems like a carnival, which is fun :D could you make yours more like that?
[Desire Themes and Apps] troedi:
no problem if you provide the graphics... i'm not a designer and the current graphics of the app is more than i expected from my photoshop knowledge :)

Team Whiskey has been successful in overclocking the T-Mobile Vibrant to 1.6 GHz, according to this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=8844947&postcount=41

Pretty incredible stuff. They're working on incorporating voodoo into this kernel right now, then they'll release it.

It sounds too good to be true.
[Captivate Android Development] Pikabob:
omg!

(yeah, that's about all I have to say)
[Captivate Android Development] tiger4j:
I believe I read somewhere that they were gonna do a captivate specific ROM via bionix. Pretty sure it is for 2.1, linpack is @12 MFLOPS and open GL site shows it on 2.1.-impressive? Yes . Can't say that I wouldnt take it for a spin though. Hopefully 2.2 will soon follow :)
[Captivate Android Development] boomerod:
Damn, with the back panel on the Captivate being metal, you might burn your hand with this setup. :D

[Captivate Android Development] xavyi:
I'll pretty sure they're gonna make z4mod their base. They're also going to implement led button notifications (;
[Captivate Android Development] TheTodFather:
Yup its real his name is morfic. I briefly saw him and unhelpful chatting about it. I cant believe this thing is stable... only bad side is that it only runs eclair till we get source for froyo kernel.
[Captivate Android Development] \/icious:
Man I've been wanting to push this badboy past 1.2 ghz
[Captivate Android Development] tiger4j:
Stable and tentative... Could see 1800! I was just thinking today (with the droid oc and all) when another one would come our way. I guess it was just a matter of time. And boy did it ever come!! Great thing is there is already plans to bring it our way :)
[Captivate Android Development] topshelf95:
I wanna see the screen shot with them running "quadrant advanced" to see the cpu score!!

This one is Cognition 8.1 with z4mod.
[Captivate Android Development] Cezar`:
Damn!!! I just read it as well, cant wait to give it a spin some day :D
[Captivate Android Development] Kaik541:
if you read the current setup required for that 3k+ quadrant score, he said he was running OCLF, so drop between 500-700 points just for that to get a more realistic voodoo score. it's impressive, don't get me wrong, but it isn't as astounding because a lot of that score is still from OCLF (hell you can get 2500 with 1.2GHz and OCLF)...

as for a *STABLE* 1.6 GHz OC, I'll believe it when I see it.
[Captivate Android Development] kennethpenn:
Yeah my phone doesn't run well with a simple 1.2 GHz OC... so I'm skeptical of a stable 1.6 OC kernel.

Quadrant is just terrible. Any comparison scores should be taken using Advanced with the I/O test subtracted. But, even then, it only scores Qualcomm MSM processors "correctly."
[Captivate Android Development] WickedStyx:
It also gets 78fps in neocore versus ~55fps stock and it removes the fps cap. Issues with 1.2ghz seem to be due to undervolting rather than overclocking to 1.2ghz. In my experience it has worked fine at 1.2ghz without undervolt.

http://phandroid.com/2010/10/27/lat...-unlock-achieving-78-0-breaks-3k-on-quadrant/
[Captivate Android Development] Kaik541:
yes, but I never questioned the FPS cap, I have no idea what affects that so I can't question it. besides, it's not like our eyes can see much more than 30 FPS, so the difference between 60 FPS and 78 FPS means little to me (in day to day usage). also, I never said anything about undervolting either or made a comment about the 1.2 GHz overclock. Mine runs fine with a 1.2 GHz overclock and the hummingbird processor has already been theorized to be stable up to 1.6 GHz, so this isn't really news, just the first time someone is advertising it as fully implemented. and, what stable means, is it runs across all the devices without things like the "sleep of death" effect occuring (which still happened for SOME with the 1.2 GHz OC).

so until I can personally see 1.6 GHz on my phone without any ill effects on battery life (which should only be minimal if the CPU is being scaled dynamically) or sleep death effects, I won't make a judgment... which is what I already said
[Captivate Android Development] DJGonzo:
This is awesome though! Woot woot!

Who needs a Galaxy S 2 with this?

2GHZ OC here we come!
[Captivate Android Development] tiger4j:
Will hopefully find out soon a dl link for the vibrant ROM is in new thread "Manhattan project." Viral black posted that they have a Captivate but will try to port to every sgs variant possible. Captivate will be 2nd I would suppose. Sombionix did say they were working on a 2.2 ROM, so hopefully this will meet froyo in the not so distant future. It seemed to be working well from the posts that I read. Then again it is still early.

[Captivate Android Development] Dani897:
I want to see what unhelpful and the other kernel gurus have to say about this. Using the ocuv kernel i couldnt get past 1248 and that wasnt stable. The later voodoo kernels werent stable for me either yet i could run unhelpfuls 1.4.1 kernel for days with amazing battery life at 1200. I was begining to think that the chip wouldnt go any higher because temperature seemed to affect my stability ( above 1212mhz my phone would crash while charging). Now im curious to see if ther are a few super chips out there or if we all have the potential. Id also like to know what the secret is that prevented it from working before.

[Captivate Android Development] kennethpenn:
Wait... you flashed the Vibrant kernel? I'm confused.
[Captivate Android Development] :
Yep why? it could be done since the captivate was released, tho orientation sensor is ****'t up/volume keys/home and back keys are inverted, recovery buttons are also inverted all know'n issues when running ether vibrant or i9000 kernels on i897 hardware.
[Captivate Android Development] Dani897:
Even at these speeds feoyo gets more mflops and snapdragons get many more mflops with froyo (they are quite fast at every tuing but graphics). I think ill wait for the froyo version but im quite tempted to run this with eugenes franklin twiz rom.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897
[Captivate Android Development] :
Played around with it everything is retardedly fast, but cant keep it, cause of the usual bugs when running a vibrant/i9000 kernel.
[Captivate Android Development] Dani897:
cant you fix the soft key and volume logic? Ive avoided non captivate kernels because i havent had a reason to use one(i dont even get 3g here so why do i need hsupa?) but i thought most of the bugs can be fixxed easily.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897
[Captivate Android Development] :
Sure you can fix the buttons and ****, but not the orientation sensor, and thats a show stopper for me, cause i game on my device a lot, so i need a working orientation sensor.

[Captivate Android Development] Roxy:
Isn't overclocking to 1.6ghz overkill on captivate? XD

And another ques I have is... Is overclocking not good for the phone in the long run? ( Like... you have it overclocked to 1.6ghz continuously for months )

Just wondering.

When I had my nexus one, it wasn't really stable at 1.2... there's always problems... I can't imagine @ 1.6.
[Captivate Android Development] Dani897:
The humming bird has a smaller architecrure than the snapdragon. So it can easily be clocked faster. I dont know if there is a longterm effect but it the temperarure goes to high once you will have a big problem.

[Captivate Android Development] newter55:
I HAD to try this out to see if it would really work........1.6Ghz, OCLF ....OMFG it works and is stable!!!! 3326 quadrant :eek: and hit 78 fps!!! I cannot wait til we see what the Mflops will be when this can be done with froyo!!
[Captivate Android Development] Lencias:
How fast does it nomnomnom the battery life?
[Captivate Android Development] newter55:
I have just been playing but the dev's say not more than stock
[Captivate Android Development] newter55:
Topshelf,

Here you go! Remember, when comparing to yours, this is still all on 2.1! CPU Scores 636 wo OC and umm...lol 1154 with it. I wonder what it would be on 2.2?:eek:

"Stock" w/OCLF:

not so "Stock" 1.6Ghz w/OCLF:

can't help but LOL at the fact that i even felt the need to test this....flashing back to stock then something else before i melt my phone ;)
[Captivate Android Development] RKight:
I have absolutely no desire to overclock my phone. I just don't see the point. The most processor intensive app I run is Angry Birds and I have no complaints about the load times or anything. Possible instability issues and potential for hardware failure, in exchange for extra speed I won't use? No thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] bassahaulic:
I really hope we can get this ported over to the Captivate.

I'd test it. :)
[Captivate Android Development] newter55:
You can....only minor issues with mapping that can easily be fixed (home and search switched, vol buttons, no biggies).....go ahead and play...it is fun for a few minutes
[Captivate Android Development] newter55:
seriously? angry birds is the biggest workout you put your phone through??:rolleyes: jk....not meant to offend
[Captivate Android Development] muthaflaco:
dg! dg! DG! DG! DG!

;)
[Captivate Android Development] RKight:
Yep. I'm probably the only person on here who has never installed Quadrant. Lol. The only reason I've even used Linpack is because it comes with Cognition. I've overclocked plenty of PCs in the past...but those CPUs are actively cooled and easy to replace if you do manage to fry them. I just don't have a practical reason to risk damaging my phone.
[Captivate Android Development] Disgustipated:
Sorry but you're 100% wrong. Human eyes don't see in 'frames', and we can distinguish the difference between far more than 30 vs 60 FPS. We can distinguish the difference between 100 and 500 FPS. There really is no physiological limit.

And if you're saying there's no perceptible difference between 30 FPS and 60 FPS... well you're full of it, to be quite honest. Easiest example is seeing ANY 3D videogame (first person shooters especially) running @ 30 vs 60 FPS. Also, why do you think 120hz TV's look different in terms of visual motion (let's ignore the interpolation). Do you really think you can't notice the difference between 60 and 120 FPS?

Anyways, just trying to clarify this before somebody reads this and goes off spouting it as fact. Believing that the human eye can only see up to 30 FPS is ridiculous, and pretty funny if you actually stop to think about it.
[Captivate Android Development] Disgustipated:
Not necessarily. It depends on how much the voltage + extra clock speed physically stresses the IC +chip. For example, let's say the processor can be run continuously @ 100% (stressed to its max) for 5 years straight, 24/7. Now let's say you overclock it to 1.6 Ghz and it can do the same thing but only for 3.5 years. Is that a big enough reduction in chip life to really worry about? Probably not, since most people upgrade their phone every 1-2 years. That was a very basic example but it holds true for most overclocking.

The only things I'd really worry about were an increase in temperature that could damage other components. Not sure if the Hummingbird chipset has built-in temperature monitoring, but if it does, it'd be simple to make a program that monitors operating temperature thresholds and can downclock the proc or in a worst case scenario shut the phone off to avoid damage due to soaring temperatures.

Also, I love Irvine. Hopefully you live in one of the good parts. :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] topshelf95:
BAM! Looks like it increases the scores of EVERY area, not just CPU or I/O!! Can't wait to see this on Froyo!! I bet DG is getting all over it already. Thanks Newter!!!
[Captivate Android Development] fatttire:
You can see the difference between 60 and 120 because at sixty you hold a frame twice then three times

At 120 you hold for an even amount of time.

Called 3:2 pulldown. All movies are at 24 fps actually

Your eyes really can't see that fast.
[Captivate Android Development] Disgustipated:
Again, you're wrong. The reason movies are at 24 FPS is for cinematic effect at this point - hence why they look so weird when interpolated @ 120hz. NOT because human eyes can't see past 30 FPS.

If you care to actually educate yourself on the subject (instead of spouting ignorance), take a look at these two articles:

http://amo.net/NT/02-21-01FPS.html

http://amo.net/nt/05-24-01FPS.html

Also, maybe you think you're smarter than the United States Air Force and their testing?

You can believe whatever you want, but don't go around spouting misinformation. Anyone that's ever played a modern first person shooter can tell the difference between 30 FPS and 60 FPS.

Just because technology is limited doesn't mean that our physiology is just as limited.
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
Agreed 100% mate....I was like what is all this BS about 30fps limit!

If he really cannot tell the difference then, damn, he is lucky that he does not need to upgrade video cards too often to enjoy "smooth" fps for his eyes. :D

Cannot wait to try this 1.6 OC....oh boy, if I feel it is fast already...this is going to be awesome specially for the PSX emulator...400mhz should help a lot.

Mine was super stable at 1.2ghz before so I dont expect issues now....we shall see.
