[Nexus S General] debro012:
I ordered one of my Thursday night, and UPS tracking claims it will be here Monday. Now, there must be some special priority for those who order in-store, because the clerk used something called "express lane". I thought it was just the name of their POS system. Evidentley, its really an express option.

[Nexus S General] Trinitronik:
Here is Nexus S camera module from Ifixit.com

And here is Galaxy's S camera module from media it:

You can see that they are little bit different... So Is that mean, that Nexus S cannot record 720p in connection with hardware problems...

Thanks!
[Nexus S General] ztm.000:
That is a humongous difference. That's probably what allows the Galaxy S the shoot 720p. Still kinda bummed over this.
[Nexus S General] Pako7:
Camera module on devices :

SGS - NEC CE147

Nexus S - Samsung S5K4ECGX

that's enough ;)
[Nexus S General] ztm.000:
Bummer.

10char
[Nexus S General] emuneee:
It appears that the NEC-10170 found in the SGS allows for 720P video capture, obsviously missing from the Nexus S.
[Nexus S General] diversificationied:
The 720p limitation has to do with the soc setup, not the camera hardware.

The camera drivers are apparently open sourced btw, so expect to see 720 put up sooner than the N1.
[Nexus S General] emuneee:
My speculation. I'd assume the NEC MC-10170 does some of the processing as to make 720P recording attainable/reasonable on the SGS. There was no room on the PCB to include it in the Nexus S. I can't really find a whitepaper on the NEC MC-10170 however.

I'm interested to see how this plays out.
[Nexus S General] fenrry:
Sorry to recall this old thread but even that both are different, is it possible to at least get a not laggy video recording driver???, can the settings be modified in any way or can the driver be obtained from another android phone that runs the same part?, I mean there is a driver modified for the fruity phone 3G and 3GS that enables the phone to record at 720p, is it possible to get a solution like that for the Nexus or are we condemned to crappy camera vid record???
[Nexus S General] Rem3Dy:
LOL. I have no problems recording video. While it isn't 720p at least its smooth.
[Nexus S General] fenrry:
The problem is not present on the NS4G but on the original Nexus S.
[Nexus S General] sagech:
What's the problem with video recording on the original nexus s? Can you give a link to a YouTube video or something?
[Nexus S General] markywylder:
I had a galaxy s before my nexus and successfully transplanted the guts of one into the shell of another that had a dead sd card. The extra piece you see attached to the galaxy s camera is a chip that connects to the board of the galaxy, the camera has a separate chip for processing. A chip that processes 720p recording. The nexus s uses the phones hardware to process its camera. Either way, it comes down to software, not the processor. Pretty simple issue of drivers needed to process the camera image (theyre both the same camera) into 720p.
[Nexus S General] Rem3Dy:
Its not pretty simple. It can't be done in real time without the hardwade encoder. The phone simply doesn't have a fadt enough processor to software encode HD.
[Nexus S General] fenrry:
There is a very annoying and common lag, a glitch that happens once in a while, pls see the following examples:

a) at 0:09 >>>Here

b) at 0:41 >>>Here

c) at the first 20 secs >>>Here

d) at 0:15 >>>Here

e) this is mine, check at 0:10, a full second >>>Here

Not only that it happens but is random and is rather extremely annoying, I shot the other day a full 2 mins vid and it came nice but the next day I was recording for like 20 secs and it was there......btw, in the Nexus S running stock is very common and happens a lot, with the Roms is not as common but it does still happen...

If not half HD (720), at least make it so it can record smoothly, I got better vids from the fruity phone 3GS, the 9000, or my old and trusty W300i.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] DevShroom:
Hello developers,

I'm starting this thread because I'm interested in designing a development environment for the Samsung Galaxy Tab so that developers, like myself, can have an easy environment for modifying the Android OS. I'll be aiming this environment at all Android Devices but I want to start with the Samsung Galaxy Tab.

At the moment I don't have much of a structure for this project, nor much direction, so if anyone has any ideas for what tools etc I should include in this please let me know. If anyone wants to get on board with the project it would also be appreciated. Send me an email.

tool ideas:

- integrating the GCC and Javac compilers into the environment.

- integrating a way to generate make files and to build from these files.

- GUI for editing files from the kernel and application framework.

- easy to use way of setting up branches for projects with the Repo and Git included in the Android Source Code.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jaganath_sr:
Count me in. I am getting a Tab tonight and I plan to develop for it. Currently, I have got the froyo source on my machine and want to integrate the open source code that Samsung released for this device.

Has anyone successfully built a custom ROM using the Samsung source code? Any help on this will be appreciated.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] DevShroom:
Awesome!

I've got Froyo working on the Tab, which I built from the source code from the android open source project website but it's just a generic build from the straight source, nothing special. not with the samsung code though. do you have any links for it?

I've put a small amount of stuff into the Dev Environment, most just shell files etc to make installing everything easier. One click sort of thing.

My first task though is going to be to try and fix the failure that is the Samsung display driver. Most noticeable are the 4 by 1 widgets that don't stretch across the whole screen.

After that I'm going to start work on a GUI for the environment and the iOS Emulator.

thoughts?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Technomancer:
Whats wrong with Android SDK and Eclipse?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] DevShroom:
It's not the most straight forward thing. I'm looking to make something that includes its own libraries too. It's aimed at beginning developers mostly, so you can literally download one file which includes everything you'll need then start editting and then one click to compile and have it all work. Simplicity
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] gnick666:
I'm also interested in this... The SGT is my first android device, and my company will want android apps for internal and external uses... and a one click dev environment would be a most welcome option!

I am working on a custom rom , if you need any help do not hesitate
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Landroid:
are u building from source or are you modifing a stock rom?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] paulshields:
I'll be interested in getting involved in a community driven project for the SGT. I'm a unix admin with lots of experience in the OS and system development field. Interested in what ideas you have on this.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] elnoxvie:
Try using openjdk. It works for me.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] DevShroom:
Thanks everyone for the positive feedback on all this! it'll be good to have as many people on board as possible.

if you have troubles downloading the sun-java5-jdk there is a good tutorial on it on this site, it doesnt come as part of the repository by default so until you add it in sudo apt-get install sun-java5-jdk will not work.

atm i am only working with AOSP not CM, i am trying to set this dev environment up for a nice simple build and then i'll start working on more complex builds so we can start developing custom roms.

@paulshields - do you know much about linux/android drivers? i wanna fix the widget sizing problem on SGT but my driver knowledge is limited
[Omnia II General] Öggo_1:
Hey guys,

Since a few weeks I'm having a quite annoying problem with my Omnia II (I8000). The phone (not the device, onlt the phone part) turns off by itself, apparently when it's "cold", around 10°C and lower which isn't exactly cold for an electronic device. And when it happens, it refuses to turn on again for a while. Clock seems to get affected too, with the clock marking earlier hours.

Did anyone had this or a similar problem? How did you manage to fix it? Or has anyone got any suggestions?

Thank you in advance for any help you may provide!
[Omnia II General] abdelrahim:
Never heared of that with my omnia working in a temperature below -10.

which ROM in detail are you using including Phone part??
[Omnia II General] Öggo_1:
PDA & CSC parts are JH1, while Phone part is JF1. It's Samsung's official italian release through Kies. I don't think it's ROM-related, as I've already flashed from a previous official version (JA5 maybe) to the current one...

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HubriScribe:
I've seen that the SLCD is causing a few headaches around here for a bit, but so far it hasn't caused me any issues. I've been able to change ROMs, even when I couldn't see the clockwork mod screen as it was happening. Same black screen with the white stripes on the sides.

I put the Gingerbread ROM on the device, but I did so without putting ROM manager on my SD card, which I know is my mistake. And now, I'm not able to download ROM manager from the Internet, and plugging the Incredible into my laptop doesn't do anything.

I've seen plenty of fixes for those with a Windows-based PC, like downloading HTC Sync, but I have a MacBook Pro, and HTC Sync isn't compatible. So at the moment, I've got a device that's basically useless, and I'm unable to actually get into Clockwork Mod to fix anything.

Is there a fix for this? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] starkillers:
So it seems as there is still some uncertainty in terms of updating to new hboot. Read some people lost root by doing so and read some were successful possibly due to having unrevoked forever installed. I updated to latest radio, wimax and nv already. Has anybody been able to downgrade the radio? I ask as it seems if downgrading is possible than unrevoked could be installed and then the hboot could be updated without losing root s-off. I appreciate any information and all your help.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xHausx:
Why would you want to upgrade the hboot?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] starkillers:
Was reading a few threads that suggest we should. I believe calkulin posted saying that he would update the hboot if it weren't for the fact that he uses fastboot commands during his development. Page 110 of his thread.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xHausx:
From what I've seen the new hBoots are all backward compatible, and as long as you have already ran Unrevoked Forever you *should* keep S-OFF, but the new hBoot has been particularly stubborn when it comes to abiding by the S-OFF. The extended commands on the eng-hBoot may not be very useful to most people but they can be very handy if something goes wrong and you manage to fubar your phone. So as long as you retain S-OFF or a custom recovery you should be ok using the 2.02 hBoot but I would wait awhile to find out more about ver 2.10. Especially if you plan on upgrading your radio.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] starkillers:
I have already upgraded radio, wimax and nv and I don't have unrevoked forever installed . My hboot is the original with fastboot commands.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkAudit:
I have 0.79, and as long as everything else is working, I don't see why it should be necessary to upgrade. And now that I've already updated all my radio's with the latest combo pack, I'm apprehensive about doing it anyway.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dills2214:
Same here except I think I'm at even a lower version... 0.76

What would the point be to upgrading hboot to 2.02? It's one thing I don't really understand all that well.

Anyone care to explain?

hi good morning at all

i speak today for explicate my problem with my htc desire z.

I root and applicate s-off with this guide

http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Vision

but I have Some Problem Because when i have power on the fast-boot ( in the setting>application> fast boot) my desire z don't enter in the recovery, fastboot, bootloader mode with pressure the various button.

but when this "Mode" Fast boot is turn off my mobile phones enter in the recovery, and in the fastboot mode i read the s-off

it possible solution at my problem? thanks at all
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eXase:
you need to turn off fastboot, because its not properly turning off your phone if you use it
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rubino90:
thanks

yes but this fast boot if ****ing **** :) thanks for the reply
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steviewevie:
That HTC "fast boot" is something that might make some users happy. It certainly "looked cool" on some demo videos where people thought it was really booting that quickly. But of course it wasn't booting at all, just un-suspending from a sleep mode.

If you want to get into the hboot "fastboot" mode or recovery, etc, then you will need to shut down properly, and turn off HTC's suspending stuff, at least temporarily.

No need for the bad language though.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keinengel:
You can enter fastboot by connecting your phone and running

adb reboot bootloader

And to boot into recovery

adb reboot recovery
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rubino90:
yes but i talk with situation in emergency when mobile phones don't reply at command (for example fastboot mode vol down + power button) you understand?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steviewevie:
Just disable HTC's own "fast boot" mode (the sleep/restore thing). Problem solved.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rubino90:
Yes but with this solution i must recharge my phone turn on :/ thanks good day frien
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imblacklife:
You could always just...pull the battery out and put it back in...there problem solved :)
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alfadog77:
We all know that HTC copied Blackberry with the "fastboot" :P

anyways yea he's right take out the battery if u want to get into the HBOOT settings

1. Take out battery

2. Hold Power Vol - button's

3. enjoy!

Hi

I'd like to backup my wi-fi access points and passwords. In 2.1 this was just a plain text file. Not so in 2.2 - and I have been unable to find an app for this in the Market.

I know people have an issue with brightness on the g tab, I found a free app in the market that can solve the issue, the app is called "Screen Filter" check it out.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] jonagpa:
Thanks dude really helpful app
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] rayden25:
... or you can use the power control widget.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] jonagpa:
... or you can verify what your talking about before posting.

Power control widget allows you to control brightness but there is a bottom limit, screen filter adds a shade of gray to the entire screen making it dimmer than the lowest brightness setting.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] datnukkapenut187:
I'm late but you're welcome, Screen filter takes the brightness down to the lowest setting, which is below stock. The default is 8, and you can take it below that with that app

Hi All!

Has anyone had any issues using google goggles before on their desire?

Mine is pretty much new (unrooted) and when I fired up goggles for the first time it said "error: 400 cannot connect".

No other app has had connection problems, also tried reinstalling to no avail :(

Anyone have any ideas?

Thank you!!
[Desire General] Lothaen:
it may sound daft, but I guess you have uninstalled and reinstalled? (maybe even with a reboot of the phone after the uninstall)

I haven't had a problem and just tested google goggles and worked ok

Hmmm... Not sure what it could be.. Fingers crossed for an update lol
