Nenmark Benchmark on richartrip kernel v5e HVAS@925mv

interactive 998mhz: 15.5fps

ondemand 998mhz: 15.9fps

performance 998mhz: 21.0fps

this is actually consistent with benchmark before the GPU mod, performance scheduler always gives better results

unfortunately i don't have nenmark scores before the mod

neo so you find CFS better then BFS?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quad2012:
Tried it with HD v11 and in quadrant there are improvements of about 60 points but Sense still doesnt feel remarkable faster compared to nonsense rom's maybe it is just me...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hamdir:
this doesn't improve the UI, it's mainly a boost in gaming performance
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mad-murdock:
You cannot count 60 points.if you do five tests in a row, your highest score will be away from your lowest score by about 50-100 points.

1389 in Quadrant on my 1st attempt, I know these numbers can be arbitrary but never been in the 1300s before. I'm using Leedroid 2.2a ROM with the 2.2e GPU+ kernel Hamdir posted, Angry Birds is super smooth.. thanks to everyone involved. Between EspressoMod, LauncherPro, SDfix and this, my Desire is pretty much perfect now :)

(non-rotary) vanilla lockscreen with audio controls mod and landscape sense UI would be nice but guess you can't have everything!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hamdir:
:D i've been feeling the same, pretty much the most three annoying things i found in this device, poor storage, stuttering in music/videos and gaming performance, are now gone

the GPU boost is not just the 10% displayed in neocore, quadrant is giving us 20% boost in 3D scores and by the feel of gaming itself its definitely in the 20% arena very noticeable in both asphalt and angry birds, i wish there is a way to really benchmark this, the SD fix is equally essential its challenge to make video stutter now

i would appreciate if everyone can post their experience with the GPU mode in this thread, some people are doubting the benefits
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tolis626:
Who is doubting it?

LeeDroid Mod 2.1 w/o GPU+:Neocore 28.5 FPS,Nenamark 15-16FPS

AuraxTSense 8 with GPU+:Neocore 32 FPS,Nenamark 22FPS(all with performance governor)

The feel it gives is also much better.Anyone still has doubts?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Frozen-GPU:
simply WOW! Excellent work!

Angry Birds is nearly too fast for me now :D

Good job!

EDIT: Flashed the new kernel on LeeDroid 2.2e without any problems!

EDIT2: Sense now scrolls like LauncherPro! I am really impressed :eek:
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nyunyu:
I'm aware this is for sense but is there any chance it could be use on MIUI rom?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mad-murdock:
Afaik, the miui kernel is not based on the crappy sense sources, so it doesn't need stupid **** like gpu+ or sdfix. Those are all issues invited by the incompetence of htc.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] willy792003:
any chance this fix can be done via module or script? so that it can be used in any kernel without building from source.

Whoaaaa. Just flashed Leedroid v2.2f last night. Noticing a good 10% improvement in graphics performance. If any of the dev's are reading this, thanks heaps, and keep up the good work. How did you guys manage this though?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NickB95:
so you are saying cyanogoen has the same improvements I am seeing in leedroid v2.2f?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nxslt1:
This is exactly what I've been looking for. Awesome! Homerun battle 3d use to play great on my HTC Incredible but ever since the Nov update it just went to crap. Tried many roms and about 10 different kernels. Finally found one with this gpu+ and wow it improved 3d graphics alot! All benchmarks went up. The graphics on Homerun battle are almost crystal clear now. My only problem is the game still plays slow compared to what it use to so is there anymore tweaking that can be done with this to make it run a lil faster?

anyone witnessesd something similar?

Thanks guys

FIXED!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yrdito:
the problem too comes for me sometimes. i just reboot :) it worked fine
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Karolis:
Yep, getting the same problem once in a while too (more often recently).

Here's what I usually try (not in any particular order): make sure to download only one app at at time; enable/disable airplane mode; stop market, clear cache & data; reboot the phone; launch the download from AppBrain.

Maybe one of these things will help you too.

hello. sorry for my poor english. i am trying to install a ROM on my htc diamond but when the flashing starts my phone looses connection to my pc (active sync) this happends when the 3 color lines is shown on my phone's screen. do anyone know how to fix this problem. thanks ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] cina:
ROM Update

Hi!

Not sure if that works but if this is your first time to flash the drivers to recognize your device in bootloader mode needs to be installed which takes some time.

Try to put your device into bootloader mode (keep VolDown pressed during reset) than plug in USB. Diamond screen at bottom will change from Serial to USB if recognized and device drivers installed.

Now start up ROM Update and perform flash. You should MTTY before every flash.

Regards,

Cina.

http://www.samfirmware.com/apps/blog/show/5196562-samsung-starts-froyo-updates-

Check out this thread for FROYO by SamFirmWare

Samsung Starts with Froyo updates next week.

They start with Europe.
After Europe the will go to Asia and Africa.

Every Galaxy S user could update his device with Samsung Kies.
Or with our way. (ODIN)

The firmwares will be XWJPA or XXJPO. (For Europe)
Both firmwares leaked on our website already.

So if you want you could download them and update your mobile!
Good Luck!

Remember after this Release Samsung keep supporting your device!
So please check weekly Samsung Kies or our website!

Why we think this are the KIES releases?
When you checked all newsmessages you find out that Samsung removed JPM from his servers.
A couple of days ago SamsungMobileUK place on his facebook and twitter that they start in begin November till the end of November for all operators.
When we check now the new Firmware versions it could be the new KIES releases. For Europe and Scandinavian.

Every Galaxy S phone will have Android 2.2 before 2011!
We have currently no information for the Samsung I5800 and I5500.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] almaalma74:
But JPA has many bugs... This is the famous new and fast FW?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] SkinBobUk:
I wonder how many will sell their devices if this is true?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] EarlZ:
This has been said over a billion times, no software will be w/o bugs. Even HTC devices are pretty buggy.. Probably the one with the least bugs is the Nexus 1.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] allotrios:
I know I won't.

I love the phone and I am on 2.1.

I can't see what's the big deal with froyo. None of the features it brings are groundbreaking (maybe with the exception of flash 10).

I don't think I would upgrade anyway...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] psp888:
Alot of new apps need 2.2. eg new Gmail app, Youtube app, Skype only seems to work on 2.2 with SGS, to name a few.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Fatherboard:
Nammmmmmmmmmm
[Galaxy S I9000 General] allotrios:
That's nice, but I don't think any of these updates are "must have" for me. The changes on the gmail app are not essential for me. I don't use youtube that much and when I use it I find it good enough and the skype implementation is not bringing video calls, so I don't want it.

If and when something amazing comes to 2.2 that I definitely must have, I may upgrade. Until then I would rather see bug fixes than new features as the phone already does a lot! :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dreamtheater39:
running jp6 with a modded kernel (341 megs by hardcore!), and its extremely quick and stable! i totally love my sgs the way it is now and have very few things to whine about :)

i just want samsung to commit on gingerbread for our devices ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Unrealwolf:
So, that "fast" FW samfirmware was talking about is going to be just a firmware with less lags than in pulled scandinavian official Froyo? That sucks, because my phone feels laggy (black screens) even on JM9 with Voodoo. And lagfix is the ONLY thing that i need from new FWs.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] h.robert:
At least we will have official Froyo.... be happy!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Sociopathic:
I'm sorry but it's not cool. Samsung seems to have this strange policy to release high-end devices and not provide proper support for them.

Right now I'm using JPK with OCLF and Launcher Pro Plus and I'm happy with my phone. But both OCLF and Launcher Pro are third party apps.

There are tons of lagfix solutions and custom ROMs that are better than the stock ones.

Customizing your device must be a choice and not a necessity so you can get decent performance on a top-notch hardware.

And I keep getting the feeling that they leak ROMs intentionally and use XDA users as guinea pigs. And are using devs to fix the issues...

Sorry that my first post ever in this forum is so negative but I'm getting really mad and impatient with Samsung...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] tolisan:
after 3 months of waiting i finally decided to sell my loved SGS.

its a good phone, but a buggy one, in my opinion a bit to buggy.

I hope for u all there will be at least this "fast" new ROM out there soon.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] andrewluecke:
Yeah, the lagfixes are great, except when they corrupt your IMEI and cause other issues. You do get decent performance without them. The lag patches haven't been flawless either... And yes, despite the crap samsung gets, I used an iPhone 4 the other day, and it was taking MUCH longer to respond to minor things (despite the fact iphones use compiled code, so they should be even more responsive).

In regards to samfirmware, forget about the rumor sites, most of them have been consistently wrong, and haven't been using credible sources.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] h.robert:
@Sociopathic: I have a friend with HTC Desire and Froyo for 4 months I guess and he's not happy... he feels that the Froyo update for his phone is not properly made.

My guess is Samsung was not prepared for Andorid's rise. Not even Google. So, we have to be pacient. Good things will come with Android. Samsung is moving slow because is a huge company with a lot of people to decide what and when goes online, each one pushing his interests. Someone wants Froyo so contain this, other that and so on...

Tolisan decided to sell his Galaxy S. He cut the **** and moved on.

Enjoy your Galaxy S or buy something else. I'm happy with mine! Best phone I ever had!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mike.sw:
*yawn*

i'm more excited with the post about samsung's intention to make better pc software then kies
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Gohst_oc:
Why you complain everytime about bugs?

I use my phone often, and most of all "bugs" are PEBTAC.

(Problem exists between Touchscreen and chair).

But I'm wondering about the not optimized JIT.

Is it so difficult for Samsung to unleash the performance of the 1337 CPU?

And it's strange that they canceled JPM and made just minor changes.

That's what disappointed me :(
[Galaxy S I9000 General] andrewluecke:
JPM was possibly only a release candidate in the first place. And we don't know exactly what was fixed anyway. There may have been some less-common major bugs fixed.

In regards to optimising JIT, our JIT might be optimised, but might simply not be optimised for the benchmarks. Remember, most CPU benchmarks only test a small number of instructions.

Tried unrevoked and it didnt work

turn phone on - stuck on white htc screen

try recovery - stuck on white htc screen

Can only get into hboot/bootloader, please help!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vnvman:
Can you access recovery via the hboot menu?

If not, have you tried flashing a new recovery via fastboot?

Also, and this would help the most, how did that happen? I mean: did something go wrong while flashing some zip or radio? Please explain a bit further so it can be easier to help you out...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liamstears:
Cant access recovery it just gives me the white htc screen

I havent tried flashing a new recovery via fastboot because I dont know how, how do ya do it?

And as to how it happened I was using unrevoked to flash amonra recovery it and it was "rebooting" but then it said an error about couldnt write to misc or something and the phone was stuck on htc white screen, tried rebooting and nothing, recovery nothing.

So yh i think flashing a new recovery will do the trick, linky to a guide?

Thanks for the quick reply!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vnvman:
I see...well imho flashing a new recovery could do the trick for you.

First of all let me know this: have you got s-off? If so you can use fastboot commander to flash it, very easy and fast.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liamstears:
s-off? hmm dunno lol

I originally rooted using goldcard method and flashed the rooted zip then many different roms since. recently used unrevoked to get clockworkmod recovery which was working fine and flashed a new rom and then tried unrevoked again to get amonra but then i got to this situation

Hope this helps

Get the RUU your Desire came with and go back to that. Then start again
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liamstears:
I have s-on and tried ruu's but failed as have no working goldcard and i have 1.21 on phone and the voda ruu that my phone came with is 1.19

Ive tried the PB99IMG.zip method but that just shows main version higher error is there a way to trick this stage?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
I'd just stick to using a stock WWE ROM until the 2.10.161.2 RUU shows up (if at all)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wednesday13:
whats the diff between RUU and PB99*.zip? I have the same problem also. Cant access clockworkmod.

Im thinking of flashing it again using PB99 in hboot then root again. Or how can we flash the recovery?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
No difference, just that an RUU needs Windows. Both wipe the phone and reset it back to 'out the box'
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wednesday13:
I see so I can flash PB99 in HBOOT(transfer pb99 to sdcard) then root again?

Or is there another way I can access the recovery or flash the recovery?

Thanks
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
Just flash the zip from hboot and then root again with unrevoked. Then set the phone up again as it'll be wiped

Sent from my HTC Desire
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wednesday13:
Thanks! It worked. I'll root it using unrevoked then, how do I make that clockworkmod recovery permanent or something? :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
When you use unrEVOked it flashes Clockwork Mod as your recovery so it'll be permanent (unless you unroot again)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shockem:
This might work for of you:D

WAIT, BEFORE YOU START, CREATE A GOLDCARD. IT IS VERY NECESSARY. THINGS WILL GO WRONG IF YOU DONT.

EDIT: YOU MUST BE ABLE TO BOOT GO TO THE BOOTLOADER MENU.

Firstly, download this file. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/13240777/Desire Downgrade.ZIP

Extract the files.

Run the win-down.bat file.

Follow on screen instructions.

After the process is completed, Head to the root of your SD card and check if there is a file named P99***IMG (FORGOT THE EXACT NAME BUT IT SHOULD BE SOMETHING LIKE THIS) there should be one.

Secondly, disconnect your phone and turn it off.

After that boot up your phone while pressing the volume down button and the power button.

The bootloader should be checking for files after awhile and once it found the file that is supposed to be in the root of your sd card, press the volume up button (NOT EXACTLY SURE, SHOULD BE THE ONE THAT SAYS YES AND CONTINUE)

It should be writing files to your phone. and replaces everything. E.G: HBOOT, RECOVERY,RADIO and such.

It should be writing files successfully and then it would ask you to reboot. Continue with the reboot and you should be having your Desire back to stock. Perfect.

PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT THERE ARE RISKS INVOLVED LIKE FAILURE OF WRITING TO THE HBOOT. PLEASE REMEMBER TO FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS. MAINLY, DO NOT BLAME ME FOR ANYTHING THAT GOES WRONG.

FINALLY, YOU SHOULD BE READING EVERYTHING UP TO HERE AND THAT YOU MUST HAVE A GOLDCARD (A GOLD SD CARD)

Hope this helps you and please ask if you have further questions. PM me if the questions cannot be answered here. Good Luck:D

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mj74:
Hi there.

Sorry to jump in on your thread but wondered if you can help. Have the same problem as you and can't create a goldcard as I can't boot up my phone. Could I use a clone of your goldcard if you were kind enough to email it to me or would that not work?

Thanks,

Matt
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liamstears:
Im afraid each goldcard has a specific cid used to create the goldcard

My advice is to borrow another android phone/device with sd slot and use it to get your cid. Theres a handy program on the market to get your cid for you, just search for goldcard on market when your sd is inserted.

When you have the cid go on the internet and get your goldcard image. Put ur sd in your comp and do a full format as fat32 and use hxd to turn it into a goldcard.

Thats how I did it! :-D

[Windows Phone 7 General] Pekpek Destroyer:
It's been 1 week now since I started my new love affair with WP7. I must say, I am very impressed and I do not miss OS 6 on my dethroned BB at all. I got the Mozart for the spectacular camera and because that flip stand on the back of the HD7 is just a recipe for headaches when it starts popping off.

Anyway the only thing I am longing for is a nice IM client that can at least handle Yahoo Messenger. I've been reading about all the hype on "Cross Talk" having the power to give WP7, Oldphone and Android the ability to have Blackberry Messenger and Facebook Chat...It has been 5 months since it was first spotted and mid last month I read that Cross talk is built and good to go pending for the release of the first WP7 device. Now that 5 of them are out, where is it? Another myth maybe?

I'm sure the first developer who gets a decent IM platform up in the marketplace will have a pleasant Christmas!

It's been a week without BBM or any IM on my phone, there is only one so called "Messenger" in the Marketplace which is a Live Messenger Knock off but it's useless....it doesn't even alert you or show an icon when someone sends you a message unless you have the app open therefore it only works if YOU are the one initiating the chat thread or if you want to keep opening the app every 5 minutes to check.

Other than my aspirations for a working IM client, WP7 is just an absolute killer! Love the UI and how graphics run through the screen. It is by far the easiest...OS to learn from scratch!
[Windows Phone 7 General] Phone Titan:
Hopefully eBuddy will add their own messenger to WP7 as they seem to be one of the most popular ones on Android.
