[Captivate General] jboz:
So I have been using my Captivate now for 3 months and aside from the known GPS issues, everything else has been great.

I have configured the Captivate to recognize my home wife network and it has been connecting automatically for the past 3 months with no problems.

A few days ago it stopped finding and connecting to my network. The Captivate finds other networks in the area, but says mine is "not in range". On the flip side, I have no problem connecting to my wifi network with my iPhone, laptop, and other wireless peripherals, so it sounds like the problem lies with the phone.

I tried deleting the configuration on the phone and adding it again, but no go.

Any ideas????

Does anyone know if we can use the Galaxy Tab APKs on the g Tablet?

I tried the email, contacts and calendar ones but I get the "could not be installed" error.

I can post the APKs from a T-Mobile Tab andthe build.prop file also if anybody thinks it can be done...
[G Tablet General] ehunyadi:
If you can post 'em online somewhere, I'll give it a shot. I have had some success in getting alternate apk's running/working in the past, so I'll try with the Galaxy Tab apk's.

[Android Apps and Games] 5ntrol:
Hello!

I have programmed an app for my own usage that I want to share.

It's simply a sticky notification showing wifi state (including SSID and other information if connected) and also if clicked, it changes wifi state.

Hope you find it useful!

You can install it from the Amazon Appstore or downloading the attached apk.

Changelog:

Version 2: Now shows an icon in status bar when wifi is on (connected or not)

Some more info.

Version 3: Auto update (on/off and time interval configurable), icon when wifi on configurable, text color and info in notification configurable, bugfixes.
[Android Apps and Games] c1phr:
I like it, it does exactly what it says it does. The only thing I could have wished that it did was have some type of way to enter the wifi settings menu when clicked instead of disabling wifi. I haven't found a good shortcut for this yet, as I use two different APs in my house (depending on which area of the house) and Android always connects to the last used one rather then the strongest connection, so I always have to go through and change it manually.

Otherwise, anyone looking for a quick way to check your AP and enable/disable wifi without an extra widget, this is definitely a cool, simple and lightweight app to do so.
[Android Apps and Games] 5ntrol:
It's good to know you find it useful.

About accessing wifi settings quickly, you can create a direct shortcut if you use ADW launcher or LaucherPro (I don't know if other launchers have this feature); you have to create a shortcut and then select Activities. In the list that will show up, you can select the settings app and inside it, wifi settings.
[Android Apps and Games] Lord fiSh:
Icon in Systray would be nice, so u can see that WiFi is active (but not connectecd to a network)
[Android Apps and Games] ozgreg:
Yes I did, however a few things..

I feel the notification bar should also display Connection Speed, Signal Strength in DB with the option to go to connection settings..

Thanks..
[Android Apps and Games] FuryriderX:
i definitely agree. there aren't really any good widgets that show this information, and it is quite useful, in addition to the AP name. if this could be added, it would be near perfect.
[Android Apps and Games] 5ntrol:
Thanks for the feedback.

I agree, that info may be useful.

I'll try to show it in the notification.
[Android Apps and Games] herby68:
how can I uninstall it from my HTC Desire HD. I use exented controls and have now conflicts when I tab airplane mode with exented controls and then return to normal mode , I have no more network connection
[Android Apps and Games] 5ntrol:
You can uninstall it like any other application. It should appear in the list of installed programs.

Anyway I don't understand your problem. Do you receive any errors? This application has nothing to do with your network connection... it only shows wifi state and changes its state but doesn't touch anything else.
[Android Apps and Games] krauli:
I think this would be a great improve to your app.

Whats the status?

Thanks great app btw
[Android Apps and Games] 5ntrol:
Sorry for the lack of news.

I have modified it a little bit.

Now it shows an icon when wifi is on (connected or not) and shows more info.

To show info like network speed I need to make it update every X seconds.

I don't like this very much because that way it lost the simplicity.

Anyway I'm trying to make it configurable so you can set it the way you like (Just starting with Android programming :D)

This is the actual version (no config nor auto update): http://db.tt/dX8m7ao
[Android Apps and Games] etatto83:
Like the new configuration options and the infos (IP and bitrate), too bad the notification icon stays always in the status bar when co

nected to an AP; I think the previous behaviour was better, but it's my opinion.

Hope to see other improvement.
[Android Apps and Games] DesireFreak:
I get force close, when I try to start the app, by enabling wifi.

I used to use it on my desire with froyo, and it worked well (used the first release).

Now I installed gingerbread from leedroid, and installed the new version and I get force close. Reinstalled and still force close.

Any suggestions?

btw: really nice app!
[Android Apps and Games] 5ntrol:
I haven't tested it in gingerbread.

I'll try to test it and fix the problem.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vivekrk44:
Even though the HTC desire HD and Galaxy s have the processor with 1Ghz clock speed their linpack scores vary. SGS has about 12-14 and HTC Desire HD has 35-38. Also the same case with Nexus One. Can someone help me with this dilema?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cantIntoCode:
Simple. Linpack is optimised for snapdragon processors. I'm sure if you searched you could have solved this by yourself.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Auzy:
And it's a synthetic benchmark anyway. Benchmarks are only useful if you know what exactly they are testing, they produce verbose outputs and if they test similar workloads to what you normally perform. Linpack is only somewhat useful if you only care about the speed floating point operations.

By the way, please stop saying it's optimised for snapdragon! To the best of what I've heard, that isn't the case. Snapdragons simply handle floating points better apparently. So yes, it might run better on snapdragon, but the developer probably didn't shift through the Dalvik code finding ways to speed it up on snapdragon.

We still don't really have enough information to understand if Snapdragon or hummingbird are faster in most applications, because we don't have an application similar to PCmark
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cheetah2k:
I know for a fact that in the "real world" the Desire HD $hits all over the SGS... I have both devices, and its very clear that the lag kills the SGS experience.

Its also worth noting, the Desire HD has the more optimised rev II Snapdragon processor. Clock for clock vs original Snapdragon, rev II is about 25% quicker...

PS - It is a shame tho, the Desire HD does not have native DIVX player support. You have to download Rockplayer for $10 to get that.. :cool:
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gtg465x:
The lag is caused by the internal memory and file system though, not the Hummingbird.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kimlindo:
eum. Rockplayer is free. ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _dsk_:
How does the desire HD handle 3D games? When i went to the HTC event in London, it wasnt really very impressive when it came to the 3D games, the SGS was clearly superior thanks to its PowerVR 540 GPU.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Auzy:
For starters, the question was based on linpack, but you are comparing the overall device. The software has already been shown to have a large impact on the devices. Furthermore, it's running bytecode, so it depends on the dalvik implementation.Your "facts" are actually non-conclusive, and seem to be based on observations.

Secondly, 25% faster isn't enough info when you don't know how hummingbird is in comparison. And even that is total crock, because 25% under which workload? It's like saying that a mechanical harddisk is half as fast as an SSD. However, under which conditions? We KNOW that mechanical HDD's operate horribly with random access. Well, what conditions have been improved on the scorpion CPU?

The harsh reality is, we don't know how exactly they compare, and benchmarks like Linpack or Quadrant only provide a tiny picture. It's more important to identify what kind of operations you need, and test those operations specifically. What we should ask is why you care about linpack?

I'm interested in finding out how the CPU's perform exactly though honestly (even against snapdragon).
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vivekrk44:
What I've seen on quadrant is that it tests all aspects of a cpu. Arithmetic of int, short, long, xml parsing, audio and video decoding and the nexus one still has a better score only in cpu. Nexus one has about 4500 and my sgs has a max of 1992. Dosent this provide the big picture?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NoobProof:
get CyanogenMod in SGS and try again ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nagrom78:
The big picture of what exactly? That quadrant doesn't give accurate results when comparing phones? This thread is a waste of time
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DCKing:
There's been a topic about this before. To get a proper comparison of actual MFLOPS performance of both devices, we'd need to make a comparison that is not hampered by different versions of Android software, different Linux kernels or different levels of JIT optimization.

To properly compare them, you could load Ubuntu (same version) on both devices, and have them run a properly optimized version of native UNIX Linpack. That'd actually be testing the hardware capabilities. Native UNIX Linpack runs 62+ on the iPad's 1 GHz Apple A4 (of which the execution core is said to be identical to the Hummingbird) which is over four times as much as we're getting on Android Linpack on the Hummingbird.

I'd be happy to volunteer my Galaxy S, but we'd need someone with a Snapdragon phone to do the same.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Auzy:
Nope.. Because as mentioned, it still goes through the VM, and you are looking at a weighted score or does it show every component individually? Also, when you say "all aspects of the CPU", how do you know it's all aspects. The fact you mention XML parsing as a proper test is silly, because it's basic string operations (array of numbers generally).

You also forget that Android is a timesharing OS, so background processes can have an effect. When I say the overall view, I mean a total breakdown of the CPU, cache, average cycles taken for specific instructions, etc.

You can't test the CPU with Dalvik, or even the NDK. And in the case of Linpack as mentioned, it's a very specific workload. There might be CPU specific workloads which hummingbird performs significantly faster than the other processors (we don't know). All that should matter to you, is how well your apps run.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ickyboo:
As all the smart people have said, don't trust benchmarks and also Froyo's JIT compiler isn't yet optimized for hummingbird, That will change once google plays around with the nexus s.

Ill give it a shot. See how something different performs for a change. With your install procedures, you should mention that if people already have the update.zip on the root of their phone they wont have to re-root the phone. Just make sure you have a backup in case master clear removes it. Makes it a much easier process.

This might be a really been question but. I always see quadrant and unpack scores. A) what apps so I. Download to test these. And b) what. Does each score represent. Please excuse my nieveness but I'm curious
[Captivate Android Development] skadamat:
LinPack tests raw CPU speed in MFLOPS. A 15-16 is a standard Captivate Score. An 18 is pretty effing high, but probably also because it's overclocked to 1.3 ghZ

Quadrant tests GPU speeds as well as CPU i believe. The 1st part of the test is CPU based, so Captivate tends to be slower in the 1st part of the Quadrant test compared to Nexus One 2.2+ sometimes or some of the newer Droids, but on the GPU part where the program takes the phone through many graphical tests, Captivate & Galaxy S phones in general trump all because the graphics chip is phenomenal in the phone.

Hope this helps!

Very nice with the update to 3.5, gotta say this is the best build yet. I LOVE the music and clock app thats in there now, I hope you dont change them. Also i think i found out what the problem was with my random "phone dies when plugged in after a while". It would SEEM that for whatever reason, since Voltage control is installed....if you dont change any of the settings to atleast the generic ones you recommend...then the phone shuts off when on charge. I found it wierd that, thats the cause...but that was the only conclusion i could come to...i changed all sorts of settings and nothing helped, but then i changed settings in voltage control and then went to charge and now i can leave it on all night and it wont shut off. just thought id pass that along.
