a) Put the odin.exe and the PIT and the TAR file in the same folder.

(i make copies of odin.exe ... dunno why .. )

Hi all. Thought I'd share my findings after tralling the internet the other day about lag.

Found on here someone said that turning off fast boot had helped them with some lagging on a ROM, so tried it myself on the stock ROM and its made a massive difference! General use is much much better and lag free, and now Angry Birds doesn't lag even with ads on.

Hope this may be useful to some, especially when searching.

Cheers.

Owen.
[Desire HD General] tanysxavier:
Thanks. Trying out now.
[Desire HD General] noobdeagle:
No difference to me, on and off performs the same .....placebo?
[Desire HD General] ruchern:
Don't think is that causes it.
[Desire HD General] l0w:
Turning off fast boot means that on restart the memory is wiped of all running applications. Therefore if you have bad appz that just keep running and consuming cpu cycles, then a reboot with fast boot off will indeed improve performance....at least until you restart the offending apps.
[Desire HD General] raecarter82:
I think if you click enable usb debugging that will help you drastically
[Desire HD General] Owendavies:
I've had debugging switched on since having my phone and and it still lags. After switching fast boot off its made a considerable difference. Don't know if the memory used by it has now been freed up to be used by the system instead?

In happy with it anyway :)

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Beegee7730:
Hey, I've been following Cyanogen mods guide about flash_image to flash PSFmod onto my phone. I can use ADB to push files to my SD card and stuff, but when I follow this:

Temporarily allow app to run from the sdcard (use mount to find the correct device for your sdcard, ie: the /dev/block/BLAH part)
mount -o remount,exec /dev/block//vold/179:1 /sdcard
cd /sdcard
./flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img

But I get this error:

Does anyone know how to fix it?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steviewevie:
You get that error from which of those commands ?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Beegee7730:
From flash_image.

Whenever I run flash_image from my phone now, I get that partition error.

Is it because I'm on a Desire Z?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steviewevie:

I would use fastboot to flash a new recovery. You're sure what you're flashing is ok for the Vision, right ?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Beegee7730:
I got it from the Cyanogen Mod Wiki, should I look for a different version?

I would but the recovery I'm flashing isn't supported by Rom Manager.

How do I use Fastboot? It should be okay for it, as it's the G2 version of Psfmod.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steviewevie:
If you've got adb all setup via installing the SDK etc, then fastboot should work fine too. I think you need the engineering bootloader though.

Boot the phone into fastboot by holding down the trackpad button and holding the Power button, with the phone off. Or you can put it into hboot with Volume Down and Power and then select "Fastboot" from the menu.

It should then say "Fastboot" on the phone. With the USB cable plugged in that should say "Fastboot USB", and if you run "fastboot devices" on your PC it should show up your phone in the same way that "adb devices" normally would.

If that's all working you can run "fastboot flash recovery filename.img" to flash "filename.img" to recovery.

ok, do you have the engineering bootloader ? Does it say "SHIP" or "ENG" at the top.

SHIP.

I assume I need to reflash it with the engineering one?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steviewevie:

Do a checksum on the eng hboot before you flash it, as per the guides, to make sure it's not corrupted.

Will test and report back when done.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spences10:
Does anyone know any more about this?

I know for a fact that the flash_image binary is included in CM6-7 on the Desire Z but all the guides I have looked at for using flash_image are for mtd memory and not emmc so when you try to determine what partition the recovery is in by the usual #cat /proc/mtd you get an error

I know I can use dd for flashing recoveries via terminal but it scares the heck out of me.

The only reason I went back to CWM recovery <3 was to have the built in features from ROM manager, but now I'm on a sense rom which doesn't have the flash_image binary

For now my workaround is flash CM6 via rom manger then use flash_image to flash CWM 3+ recovery so that I can restore to CM7
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ianmcquinn:
Guide for flash_image:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=902493

Why do you need to determine which partition is for recovery? Should only need that if you were going to use dd to flash the image. Either way, as you stated, the Desire Z uses eMMC instead of MTD so just run "cat /proc/emmc" to see the partition list...
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spences10:
That was iiiiit =)

thank you dood :)

I just wanted to know where the binary went and what to do with it after

copy binary to the /system/bin folder via root explorer, then :

cd /system/bin
chmod 777 flash_image

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ikon8:
Avi is just a container, you need codec support for the video file inside. Try Rockplayer.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingcoyote:
Thanks for the suggestion but I'm not having an luck with Rockplayer either. As stated above when I use rockplayer to open the avi files, it plays a second or two of audio and then quits back to the file select menu. Are you sucessfully using rockplayer to play back avis ?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ikon8:
Yes, you can play avi's depending on what codec was used on the video file inside the avi, an avi file can have any type of video file inside of it; h264, mpg4, divx, etc...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demo23019:
rockplayer probably needs to be updated to work with 2.3 like allot of other software

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bas-r:
Does anyone know if running Unrevoked on my phone will give me root permissions in the current rom?

I have run Unrevoked on a friends' HTC Desire (both Windows and Mac), and although Clockworkmod gets pushed to the phone, and I can get into that, and it functions fine (ran a nandroid backup), the rom on his phone has no root rights yet.

This is the stock rom.

My question is: should Unrevoked give you root permissions in the current stock rom? If it should, is not having root permissions yet, a sign that Unrevoked hasn't done its job properly?

Or can I safely flash a new rom on my mates phone?? Clockworkmod seems to function fine.

[G Tablet General] ddarvish:
When i try to play certain games the accelerometer is totally wonky and doesnt work right AT ALL. i was wondering if this is a hardware issue that can never be fixed, a firmware issue or a kernel issue... any ideas?
[G Tablet General] milo2541:
Yeah, same peroblem here

When I try to play a Polar Bit game like Wave Blazer or Asphalt HD, etc., the controls are completely out of control. Other games like NFS Shift, and the Gangster games from Gameloft, appear as if they will load, then half the screen has ghost like cars and people.

Is this something that will clear up with Gingerbread or will we likely have to wait for Honeycomb (which I have read has been written for the Motorola tab with almost identical hardware to our G pads) ?

Has anyone found any games besides Angry Birds that res up properly to a 10 inch screen ?

Thanks in advance.
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
I could actually be the game, or a firmware issue or both. Some games work fine, some do not probably as they coded for a smaller phone screen that's in portrait mode by default.

I wouldn't recommend this tablet for gaming, yet. Too many issues that may not be worked out until the app makers start developing for tablets. You could also call CS to complain, so that way they know it's an issue (I've done this a few times, myself).
[G Tablet General] rushless:
Not sure I agree that the G is not good for gaming. Angry Birds, Mini Squadron, Steambirds, Quake series, PSX and the down the road releases of Dreamcast and N64 emus have no equal with Tegra 2.

If solely for Android games and especially Gameloft games, 100% agree.
[G Tablet General] Sprdtyf350:
I used to think the sensor was screwed up in the tablet. More I play with things the more I believe it is the way the games were coded. They were not made to work on a tablet in landscape mode. Some developers did a better job then others and may have thought ahead.

Raging Thunder is a good example. Raging Thunder 1 has to be driven with the tablet sideways. Raging Thunder 2 works fine. Seems to me something may have been learned about how things should be coded between game 1, and game 2.

If the G sensor was bad no game would ever work. Since there are games that do work I tend to lean towards the game being broken, and not the sensor in the tablet.
[G Tablet General] xmr405o:
I can't wait til the N64 and dreamcast emus.
[G Tablet General] Alpha06:
Labyrinth works perfect so I'm convinced its the games themselves
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
I wouldn't recommend it for gamers yet because some games don't work. But agree that, when they do work, they work very well. Angry Birds, for example, is a game I almost wish didn't work. :D

But since it's hit or miss, it's not something I would recommend to a gamer. I figure that this will work itself out as more Tegra 2 devices are released.
[G Tablet General] ddarvish:
I just figured that some of the games i saw working on the galaxy tab in the vzw should be working on this tablet as well but there were some issues with them not working. anyway i hope can create a database of games that work well somwhere on the forums and sticky it

[Windows Phone 7 General] sandrobber:
When will Windows phone 7 hit it's million mile mark?​

Based on some of my guestumates I believe that Windows phone 7 will hit a million units in 4 months. Thats not to snazzy. It appears to me that growth is about 41,666 units per week. Don't go bashing me now this is just a guess.​

In a week the facebook page grew by 25,000 and I would think 2/3 of people use this integrated app so

214,000 right now

356,000 right now is my estimate. ((214,000*2/3)+214,000)

41,666 growth potential per week

soooooo

1000000-356,000=644000 to go

644,000/41,666=15.45 or 15 and 1/2 weeks

15.5/4.33 3.57 months + 1 monthish = 4 1/2 months.

Now here is where my math gets hard.

1 provider will sell about 400000 units in about 2 months

so when it hits all 3 it should reach that mark by February.​

I believe it will hit 1000000 units in month 4​

Now It's your turn when will it hit the 1 million mark.

What I saw somewhere it took the driod about 2 months and the iphone about 6 weeks​
