Ascend Overclocked

Got the Ascend to overclock using Droid Overclock that i was able to get in Applanet. Noticeable speed increase. PM me I can send you the APK, Droid overclock in the market doesnt work. I dont know the difference.

Well makes the phone very useable.

Hopefully a 2.2 rom or custom roms get released on this beauty soon.:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dEris:
It runs stock 600MHz. Unless you have a custom kernal, you cannot go over that and I know for sure you're running the stock ROM with stock kernal.

I wouldn't trust them. They don't even know what Rooting a phone is. They are trained how to sell phones, and how to basically use them. They are not tech savvy at all.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Jonathan_R:
I'm relatively new to smartphones, and have read every post in this thread. Found some of the posts funny, most informative. Let me ask a few questions that may sound silly to some. I run Linux and only Linux (openSUSE 11.3), and when I connect to the computer with the microusb cable it detects it, I can navigate in the phone, but can't get to the sd card. It gives an error about vFAT, unrecognized format. The partitioner shows FAT16 :confused: Before I root my phone, I'd like to be able to access it via my computer.

Next, I'd like to put the most current kernel on there. 2.6.37. kernel.org I noticed the phone comes with kernel 2.6.29. uname -a will show that.

I'd also like to know if there is anything I can do so that I won't be constrained by the 16 GB limitation for the microsd card.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] joenathane:
If you read every post in this thread then you would know that there is no one here capable of answering your questions :D

Good Luck!!!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] isaacj87:
I'm running openSUSE as well (11.3 64-bit KDE 4.5.90). Sounds like a bad format. I can mount the sdcard on my laptop just fine. Try using Android to re-format the card see if you have better luck.

About the kernel, there's probably not a good chance you're going to find even a custom ROM with kernel 2.6.37. Hell, you can't even find that on most popular distros yet. The highest kernel I've seen for Android was 2.6.33. But then again, I could be wrong.

I don't think you can get around the 16 GB limitation. I don't think it's something built into Android, but a restraint on the hardware itself.

I've started to take a look at creating a custom recovery for this phone. I'm about to pull a fresh copy of the SDK and HOPEFULLY build a custom recovery, but I can't promise anything. We've already got the phone rooted, now it would be helpful to have a custom recovery. I also started looking at Android Kitchen which allows us to create custom ROMS, but Huawei gave us a recovery ROM that has some weird format. (*.APP <--- what is that, Huawei? Why can't you just give us a normal *.img or update.zip file?)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Jonathan_R:
I appreciate the response there. I am running on openSUSE

uname -a
Linux linux-y3cx 2.6.37-rc5-18-desktop #1 SMP PREEMPT 2010-12-10 09:20:34 +0100 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I guess I can try formatting the sd card, and see what happens. I just formatted it, and then tried to mount it and I got this.

org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.Volume.UnknownFilesystemType: Unknown file system 'vfat'
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] isaacj87:
That's strange.

I did a quick search on the openSUSE forums. The problem is probably caused by your kernel. Where did you get that kernel from (which repo?) or did you compile it yourself? I also see it's pre-emptive and a release candidate. I ran:

fdisk -l

and

blkid /dev/sdb1

on my sdcard and it's a FAT16 partition type="vfat" so I'm assuming it's the kernel.

Try switching kernels and seeing if you have better luck.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Jonathan_R:
Thanks for the reply. I have been a long time SuSE user, since SuSE 9.1. I get my kernels from the nightly builds. download.opensuse.org/repositories/Kernel:/HEAD/openSUSE_11.3/

It's hard to imagine that it could be the kernel and not udev or hal, but it is worth a look, so I will check it out.

Thanks for the insights.

ok guys, on my ascend, when i hook it up to the computer, 1 of 4 things will happen. 1. it wont read it at all, 2. it reads is as a cd drive and i click on it and says it croupt, 3. reads it as a cd drive and has the programs file for it, or 4. it loads the sd card like i want it too. How can i just get it to load the sd card? I mount it on the phone and the phone restarts. BTW Im on Windoze Vista. Thanks in advance for the help

[Vibrant General] bert269:
Not sure if this is allowed, since the original thread and the part2 thread were both closed, but life goes on and so does ROM testing.

My findings regarding JPM R1 + JPM777.

I Odin'd JVD from a previous 2.1 ROM and then installed the JPM_R1 rom, did the Factory reset and installed the JPM777 Rom.

Rebooted, waited a few minutes, reboot again and then did the Google/market login.

Everything is working fine and have been running it now for about 12hours. Once I did have the 3G connection disappeared and could not do any data connection. I enabled airplane mode, disable it again and data/3G came right back - working fine.

What exactly is the problem with the GPS? Mine is working, although it does not show the GPS icon in the notif.bar. My Google maps are working and I do see my position, very accurately and on track.

I have not tried any navigation yet - is that part of the issue?

I do understand that Eugene said the GPS drivers are not available for 2.2, but how then is it working - is it using the wifi positioning - even when on the road?

I have restored all my apps with Titanium backup - about 45 apps. I have not experienced any FC's so far, accept the the data/3G problem once.
[Vibrant General] lorendroll:
It's an emulation. It uses GSM data to find your position using base-stations. It's not GPS but works in big cities with 100-200 meters accuracy.

I still wanna know why the second thread was closed...
[Vibrant General] geoffcorey:
It just wasn't opened and it's pending a response from eugene.
[Vibrant General] watcher64:
Just a guess, but I think eugene is tired of all the flaming and n00b's .

It has gotten very much out of hand here on XDA and with their "One Mod Per Forum" policy not enough mods to police it ...

And just my opinion but a lot of the mods they do appoint are either too busy with other things, do not have the knowledge/experience to deal with it, or just don't care.
[Vibrant General] Master™:
Sorry that this thread is kinda getting off topic.

But Eugene's thread did get back on topic, so I don't know why he didn't just hand out infractions to the people who flamed & we all could of gone on.

It is much simpler then going and closing a whole thread.
[Vibrant General] watcher64:
Well he more or less "moved" it to another site, at least that is what he said on twitter.

But back on topic ,

I tested out his 2.2 , and it worked fine, I live in BFE and was getting 50M "gps" locks on google maps, so not sure what is up with that, but of course Copilot would not find the GPS ...
[Vibrant General] bert269:
No other GPS software apps for me....

To be honest, I do not have any TRUE GPS related apps like, Mytracks CoPilot, etc. I do have Weatherbug and Flip Weather & Clock and they both seem to be very happy with 'My location' only.

I guess it would become more of an GPS issue if the app was more GPS based.

Any idea of where to look for Eugene's new thread as stated a previous response?

[Fascinate General] lolreconlol:
I killed my phone while trying to install a ROM, so I re-flashed a bunch of stuff and it's back. Some problems though - it has Superuser installed still. Even though I did a factory reset, Superuser is still there. When I try to re-root it, it goes through the whole things and gives me "error: device not found". I don't understand why it finds my device in the beginning of the process, but doesn't find it at the end.

1. How do I delete Superuser for good so I can start fresh, and re-root again?

2. What do I do now? :confused:
[Fascinate General] AlgorithmX:
Could you list everything you've done in chronological order starting with the first thing you flashed and ending with the last thing you flashed?
[Fascinate General] lolreconlol:
1. I was playing nice with the clean, magic roms, etc, everything was cool.

2. Then I tried to install Blue Breeze the same way and it froze the phone (later found out it was the wrong way to do it).

3. Then I followed the restore to stock thread (flashed system, kernel, etc), and brought it back to life, and Superuser was still installed. I tried to uninstall the root, and that doesn't work either.

So right now I can't uninstall Superuser, OR re-root it again because it just keeps giving me the error: device not found.
[Fascinate General] PhoenixPath:
If you go into settings and check your internal phone memory...what is it saying you have?

Can you download apps from the market?

I got this same error when the voodoo bit me and gave me the 0.00 internal memory issue.

Try either flashing your stock+root CWM backup (you made one, right?) or the nandroid "stock" image in the forum through CWM.

(Wipe data/cache on reboot in stock recovery and then from the "privacy" menu of your stock settings do a "factory reset".)
[Fascinate General] lolreconlol:
1. I have 1.50 GB free.

2. Yes, I can download apps from the market.

3. Where is the stock image located?

4. I did that factory reset like 3 times. :p

Visit the first thread in this forum for info on stock recovery (including where to find the "stock" nandroid recovery image).

I take it you did not create a CWM recovery backup immediately after rooting your phone?
[HD7 General] RussST24:
Hi Everyone,

My HD7 arrived today and I have started to set it up etc. (I am in the UK)

Any questions you want to know fire them at me.

I am coming from a Galaxy S so it does seem a tad limited for now until the apps catch up.

So far I have noticed the following oddities.

OS based Issues MS need to fix

Video player does not play audio via A2DP. (music does)

Bluetooth settings lack any options for type (Headset/Stereo) settings (no real issue)

Mobile IE does not render Toodledo/slim well so not sure about other sites.

Zune software - Podcast section does not appear in market in UK have to add rss feeds manually to the app.

No custom ringtones/other sound settings

No option to connect to WIFI with hidden SSID

Only syncs main calendar from any source not any additionals.

Media HUB only remembers the location of the last video in the play list that is "paused" once you move to other items of music or other videos it forgets the place.

Other issues not OS related. (all will be fixed over time with good apps)

Lack of apps is a real issue on day one. This should change.

No TODO app with push notifications available! big issue for me.

YouTube App just loads the m.youtube.com so its really just a player engine once you pick a video from the site.

Videos get converted on the fly during sync which makes this a slow process. Should kick off the conversion as soon as you say sync to phone.

Other than these points the phone itself is really nice and fast, no lag at all.

Takes some getting used to but I am trying hard to make it all work.

Russ
[HD7 General] tboy2000:
No connection to hidden SSID? That sucks!

Can you categorise imported/synched videos into any album you want and rename the albums? So I could have say one video album labelled FAMILY, one labelled, FUNNY, one labelled MOVIES etc
[HD7 General] ratchetjaw:
Thanks for the input. What's your opinion of the screen coming from samoled? How is the ringer volume compared to the Samsung?
[HD7 General] kevwright:
I got mine today, just sold my Galaxy S, still have my iPhone 4.

Screen is almost as good as iPhone, nothing like Super AMOLED sadly.

Biggest issue for me is speakers are terrible.

Kev
[HD7 General] ratchetjaw:
Oh okay thanks for the info. I had an ip4 so if its close to that I am cool. I hate to hear the speakers suck. That's big issue for me. Especially since I can't add my loud ringers I usually add if speakers suck on the phones I get
[HD7 General] Firann:
I thought the HTCs had Dolby Surround or whats it called o.O How can they be worse than the competitors?
[HD7 General] tboy2000:
I may be mistaken but Dolby Sound and SRS only work when headphones are plugged in. Maybe someone can confim.
[HD7 General] Dazza999:
i Can confirm that both SRS and Dolby mobile work through headphones and through the speakers, when putting on Dolby does make it sound slightly louder and clearer for me!!
[HD7 General] ratchetjaw:
That's great to hear
[HD7 General] RussST24:
As far as I can make out on my Zune software I can not group videos into playlists so there does not seem to be an easy way to get it to auto sync unless you pick the ALL option.

Still messing with it though.

Russ
[HD7 General] RussST24:
Agreed, the screen is nowhere as good as the Galaxy but if you have never had a Super Amoled then I dont think you will be disappointed.

Speaker volume is very low compared to my Galaxy also. I thought the grills at top and bottom were speakers but they are just for show.

The speaker is next to the camera on the back.

Russ
[HD7 General] Audio:
This is not true, without the Youtube app you can't play Youtube Videos from the website. The App contains necessary Code/Drivers which allow you to play Youtube videos whethere going through the App/Link or from IE.

Also the Front Mounted Speakers are still being questioned. HTC seemed to have advertised the phone to Reviewers/Critics as having "Front Mounted Stereo Speakers" however atm they are either not used (software update required from M$) or HTC were lying. I'd like to hope it's teh first one but you never know :(

The Screen on mine is brilliant when the brightness is set to High. When on Auto it seems to keep screen brightness on Medium which is a bit rubbish and doesn't show it off very well. Get it on High and you'll notice the difference. It's (very) hardly noticable from the HTC Desire's when they're side by side, but the fact it's massive far outways that.
[HD7 General] RussST24:
Thats was my point about it being just a player engine (codecs etc). I was comparing what I know from Android for a youtube app and was suprised it was not a full in app experience.

But being able to play the videos at all is a big plus.

Agree on the screen, set on HIGH it looks very nice and anyone will be happy with it but I am not sure what impact the battery is going to take. Side by side with a galaxy S though you do see the difference but if you never had a super Amoled then you wont care at all.

What is a score with Low - Med - High anyway, wheres the slider for brightness. Seems like a miss that should have been easy.

Russ
[HD7 General] Audio:
Ah apologies I misread you on the YouTube thing. I've left my screen brightness on high for a few days now and I must say I haven't even noticed a difference in battery life, although tbh my battery life is terrible anyway. Why HTC chose a 1200 instead of a 1500 is beyond me.

No backward compatibility ?

Apps have to be completely rewritten ?

PS WM7 = Windows Mobile 7

I know I will look stupid but I never read this anywhere.

To the guys who have bot and hd7 is it worth selling a galaxy s to buy one?
[HD7 General] 88_ninjas:
Hi Guys. I got my HD7 a couple weeks after it came out and i don't know about you but I'm getting pretty annoyed that people are selling this phone under the presumption that it has two side speakers when quite clearly it does not! Music and any other sound for that matter comes out of a poxy little speaker place on the back of the phone.

Those two grills that lie above and below the screen, are placed there just for show they have no real use that I can ascertain other than to constantly remind me of where the selling point of the phone, for me personally, should be but isn't.

As you can tell I'm pretty disappointed at this especially as I just watched an official Microsoft CES 2011 video and heard them claiming that the phone has two side speakers. It's a lie!!!!

However other than this I think this phone is pretty damned amazing considering it was rushed out with an incomplete OS in time for X-mas (I mean no copy-paste really?!).

It has the potential to blow its competition out of the water and quite frankly I hope it does. Because Microsoft, like an old car, even though it has a lot of bad days, when it works it works well and for that you gotta love it really.

[Android Software Development] FlyingSwissman:
Hi All,

I am attempting to generate a signal at a dynamically chosen frequency (i.e. 50-20000 Hz approx.) I am starting to get frustrated. I've read the documentation over and over again, looked at numerous examples and forum posts but have not resolved the problem.

The code works BUT the signal is not stable going up and down slightly.

final float frequency = freq;
float increment = (float)((2*Math.PI) * frequency / 44100); // angular increment for each sample
float angle = 0;
AndroidAudioDevice device = new AndroidAudioDevice( );
float samples[] = new float[1024];

while(threadIsRunning)
{

for( int i = 0; i < samples.length; i++ )
{

samples[i] = (float)Math.sin( angle );
angle += increment;

}

device.writeSamples( samples );
}

and the the AndroidAudioDevice Class is as follows:

import android.media.AudioFormat;
import android.media.AudioManager;
import android.media.AudioTrack;

public class AndroidAudioDevice {

AudioTrack track;
short[] buffer = new short[1024];

public AndroidAudioDevice( )
{

int minSize =AudioTrack.getMinBufferSize( 44100, AudioFormat.CHANNEL_CONFIGURATION_MONO, AudioFormat.ENCODING_PCM_16BIT );
track = new AudioTrack( AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC, 44100,
AudioFormat.CHANNEL_CONFIGURATION_MONO, AudioFormat.ENCODING_PCM_16BIT,
minSize, AudioTrack.MODE_STREAM);
track.play();

}

public void writeSamples(float[] samples)
{

fillBuffer( samples );
track.write( buffer, 0, samples.length );
}

private void fillBuffer( float[] samples )
{
if( buffer.length < samples.length )
buffer = new short[samples.length];

for( int i = 0; i < samples.length; i++ )
buffer[i] = (short)(samples[i] * Short.MAX_VALUE);
}
public void releaseTrack(){
track.release();
}

}

Where is the problem here?:confused: Is there an alternative way of solving this problem?

I would very much appreciate if you were able to help, even if its only a pointer in the right direction! Have lost a lot of hours over this puppy.
