How could this patch be installed after flashing a rom?

( Is it like running a script... make rich text doc/ place on sd card/ open emulator/ enter code?)

If anyone has the answer could they post the code(s) they used. I didn't have too much success.
[EVO 4G Android Development] atticus182:
Hi Zod, long time no see!

I don't know if you remember me, but I'm one of the first beta testers of your SNES & PSX emulator for the iPod touch :).. Good to see you working on Android now!

Cheers, Anton (atticus)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Caanon:
Heya Z

Great find. Couple technical questions for ya:

1. I'm not familiar with this section of the kernel. Is this assembly code autogenerated by the toolchain requiring binary patching after compilation, or does it exist as an asm block in the source?

2. Would it be possible to add a separate function to the kernel that clears only the userspace cache? Something along the lines of v7_coherent_user_range_ZODTTD. This might contribute to kernel bloat though. On the upside, it would retain the original kernel space clears for other programs that use the call so other processes could clear the caches when they need to, but programs like your emulator could clear only the user cache.
[EVO 4G Android Development] konistehrad:
I would be very careful before suggesting a fix from the Fascinate kernel for cache-flush optimizations or fixes. The Galaxy S's 2.1 kernels notoriously could not be used run Unity games, and while the root cause was never proven it has been heavily speculated that it was the result of an improperly implemented cache-flush instruction.
[EVO 4G Android Development] fixxxer2008:
i hope this patch can be put into the sbc kernel. :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] invisiblek:
ok, applied the patch on my kernel

seems to be a lot less choppy, still not as good as it used to be though :(
[EVO 4G Android Development] Rotkaeqpchen:
Hi Zodttd! Could you provide your fix to Yong Zhang, too? Maybe this helps to get Gameboid run really in fullspeed! Thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Prfndhatrdofman:
Is this only with Sense Roms? Where you're seeing performance issues with PSX4Droid? I havent tested it in quite some time, never on Sense. Like Cyanogen my performance was also poor with PSX4Droid. Is this just and issue with the architecture of the procs used for the Evo, MyTouch, Incredible, etc?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Prfndhatrdofman:
You having trouble with gameboid? which ROM?
[EVO 4G Android Development] mugenex:
what is the fps did you get on your fascinate?
[EVO 4G Android Development] akiradavis:
BUMP

I would love to see this applied to sense roms. I tried ZenDroid's new kernal with this fix and I can confirm it speeds up Syphon Filter v1.1 and Road Rash 3D. I went from a very choppy Syphon Filter to a semi-choppy version (even silky smooth at times). Road Rash 3D became perfect as well. It sucks though because I like using Evo-NonSense for the 4G aspect so switching between this and an ASOP rom can get tedious

However, to conclude, this fix does speed up PSX4droid. It may not be completely smooth as other phones but bearable enough to frag some baddies in Syphon F.
[EVO 4G Android Development] EViollet:
Hi.

Have you noticed any other side effects?

I'm thinking of including this patch into my own kernel if it's totally safe.

In advance, thanks.

Regards,
[EVO 4G Android Development] xlGmanlx:
I agree with that
[EVO 4G Android Development] akiradavis:
There were no side effects I experienced when running Zen's kernal. The games played smooth enough to enjoy them which was great. Honestly though, I haven't been using it daily ever since CM6 WiMax Alpha 2 was released. I do have the build on hand as a nandroid backup just in case I get the PSX bug again on my commute to and from work
[EVO 4G Android Development] EViollet:
OK. Thanks.

I think I'm going to add the patch then...

The battery still dying.
[Nexus S General] sinatosk:
I feel I have a battery problem as well ( draining to fast ) and was thinking of replacing it soon...

Where are you located ( asking because I'm in the UK and you say 14 day return policy )?
[Nexus S General] unremarked:
14days is the typical return policy for a phone bought on contract here in the U.S., the only exception being California which has a 30 day return policy for a phone bought on contract.

If you bought the device outright(paid the full retail price of $529) from Best Buy(again, here in the States), you have a 30 day return policy under their system.

I'm not sure about the UK. :(

Hello,

I have read many threads and have tried many solutions with no avail. I am giving out $20 (may not be much but still an insentive) to whomever that will help me solve this.

I have 2 vibrants that keep booting to the Galaxy S i9000 intro and keeps rebooting there. I can't get into the recovery mode, but I can get into download mode and ODIN works just fine.

Please someone help :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tackygr:
Just flash another firmware with Odin.Download a stock firmware,click re partition in odin,load all 3 files and pit and flash it.

You see sometimes after flashing with odin in some cases you might have to do a factory reset to boot the phone,since you cant go in recovery you will need to flash a complete stock firmware.This will probably work.

Go into download mode, connect to odin, download a firmware that will work with your phone, flash your phone. That should fix it.

By the way, the gentleman (who seemed very knowledgable) tried flashing my phone on the spot behind the counter and now the phone boots with a black screen and the bottom keys glow when pressed.

When entering recovery mode <3e> and try to format internal sd-card, i get the following:

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] got_milk:
Time for a replacement - looks like you've got the ever-so-popular internal SD card death.

If you take it into a Bell store they'll send it out and you should get a new one sent back to you in the mail. Bonus if you have any scratches on the phone or anything. :D

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Serikiito:
I've had that problem, shouldn't be too hard to fix.

Flash the Rom JPC with a 512 pit, make sure re-partition is ticked.

Then you can go back the original rom you was on without a pit and without re-partition ticked.

Make sure you do all them steps

Hope this has helped! :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spectre85:
I had this issue when flashing from JL2 to another

- some of your partitions got messed, first boot odin, put your phone into download mode and make sure odin see's it. Select JL2 in the PDA secion and click the phone boot loader update

- after it's flashed, find the speedmod from hardcore on xda and flash that, also in the pda part, make sure everything else is default so it's best to close odin and reopen it

- after you have the speed mod on you should be able to get back into recovery.

- almost there, flash the stock 2.1 on your phone this has some data that no other rom has, once you flash that you can flash JL2 over top once again and you should be good to go

- msg me if you have issues
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] android.francis:
is this issue still on ongoing?

try this (if you haven't tried it before):

1. Launch Odin

2. Put the necessary stock firmware + PIT file that goes with it

3. tick re-partition (not sure what partition you are currently in so that's why I'm suggesting repartition)

4. Go into DL mode and plug the phone in via USB

5. Flash it

6. Once done, go flash hardcore's latest speedmod kernel via Odin again

7. Go to cwm recovery (hardcore's speedmod will give you this)

8. wipe partition cache+factory reset + clear dalvik cache

9. reboot system (will take a several minutes to boot out of the Galaxy S screen)

10. Hopefully your problem is solved.

11. If my method worked for you, PM me. I'll ask you to give that $20 to a local charity of my choice. Street kids needs some love too in the new year :)

[Streak 5 General] Dunjon:
Just wondering what you think the future holds for the Streak or if there will be a future for it especially with AT&T. Will the Streak make it to Android 2.3 or 3.0? Is it considered an HD device? Will there be more accesories for it?

I ask cause I am ready to give up my 3 year old Tilt and the Streak is tops on my list for a new phone. Just wanna have something thats gonna be worth my 2 year contract commitment. Also considering waiting for something new but not sure whats coming out in 2011 for AT&T.
[Streak 5 General] kwoodyusa:
I am wondering the same thing. I have a tilt2 and i need to make a move. Been running xaandroid for the last 4 months ready for an android device. Size and lack of keyboard are holding me back right now.
[Streak 5 General] xilpaxim:
dual core tegra phones are coming in 2011. If you can wait, and don't mind possibly something smaller (there are rumors of a Streak 2 but nothing even remotely concrete as far as I know) I would wait until summer.
[Streak 5 General] streak4m3:
The 2011 CES (Consumer Electronic Show) starts in about a week. I am sure there will be all sorts of announcements from all major vendors, Dell included. So I would look at the prospects then and evaluate the decision. I certainly hope that Streak gets a 2.3 and 3.0 upgrades in the future. Maybe they will just skip 2.3 and go straight to 3.0? Wishful thinking I know :)
[Streak 5 General] zkyevolved:
I hope it gets it. It would be a shame if it didn't get it. I just got the streak unlocked. LOL.
[Streak 5 General] xilpaxim:
Having DJ_Steve around right now at least guarantees 2.3. Hopefully he keeps his Streak around until 3.0 comes out. I worry that once he gets a new and more interesting device, he will stop developing his ROMs.
[Streak 5 General] Dunjon:
I almost bought one right after I posted this. A co-worker got the Samsung Epic and it made me jealous as hell. I got a $25 Best Buy gift card and I was gonna use it on the $99 Streak deal that they have. I held out in the end thought.

Froyo reviews says that its even faster with the update.
[Streak 5 General] lufc:
Streak 2 is 7in so may be a bit to big who knows but the streak will not die as the Medical staff in the USA are getting them and i just read a report that the USA Army are now Testing them

Plus now it has 2.2 on Board it is blowing everything else out of the water in all Tests:)
[Streak 5 General] brianlp:
I was using the Tilt2, and the Tilt before that. I bought my white streak on Dec 23rd, and there is no way I will ever go back to it. I had been holding back for a phone with a physical keyboard, but also as at least a 4.3" screen on AT&T. Been waiting for 1-1/2 years and decided it was never going to happen. Looking to sell both of them. Can't wait for 2.2.. :D

i think dell streak is going to last long.

THey have just released it in the asian market. Do u think they are going to stop making more in less than a month of release.

I am also pretty sure that they will release gingerbread for streak.

The support for dell streak from dell is pretty good.

We do have some people in twitter who have helped sort many things out.

1.6 was terrible and dell made a mistake there

Hwowever i am now using stock 2.2 and its almost perfect.

They might take another 6 moths to release gingerbread for att streak but i am sure in another 2-3 months they will release GB for unlocked streak..

Finally to add about new processors.

The more u wait the better it gets. However as a end user i want my phone to be stable and fast. Yes its stable and fast with 2.2 on it. and if i have 2.3 its garunteed tat its going to be faster.

So guys get it if u like the size.....

All of the ones I see in the market are white screen flashlights only...
[Venue Pro General] DeekoVB5:
The SDK doesn't expose the ability to turn the LED on/off, so it isn't really possible. HTC has one, but I'm sure Microsoft gave them access to special things us regular devs don't have.

Perhaps there will be an SDK update soon that brings that ability. Until then, we're stuck with white screens.

When you go to the EM screen.. on the CIT test.. there is a LED test.. it turns on the LED and it stays lit.. actually provides a nice light. Although to use as an app would be a bit much.. as you have to go through \half the test to get to the LED test.

:cool:
[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] zervic:
Ohshi I never realized that...but that requires using a custom layout and I haven't the slightest clue how to do that hence why I just use the pre-defined layouts let lol
[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] jbizz:
Semi sorta how to on Minimalistic Text

Minimalistic Text:

Where it says Predefined layout, choose Custom and then click on Custom layout.

Once you're in the Custom layout, you can drag those boxes in the top down to the dumpster.

Now the 3 icons that are to the right of the layout on top are from top to bottom :

Add Type > Which shows at the Bottom (Date, Battery, Clock, Weather, Misc.)

Add Row > Allows you to add another row (example Top row Clock, Bottom row Date)

Delete Row > Allows you to delete a row.

So, whatever type you choose, there are a lot of options. You just drag those boxes up to the top of row.

In the 1st screenshot under Custom layout is Text Style, you can play with those to set the different text styles and at the bottom you can preview your Widget.

Hope this helps a little bit!

:)
[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] yaswanth.y.s:
Guys..

Dont even bother with minimalistic text. I love SiMi Clock.
[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] zervic:
minimalist text > simi clock.

it's all opinion my friend. but when minimalist text can do clock, date, weather, battery in any layout you want, it is far better than simi clock, again, in my opinion.
[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] FtaWolf:
Weather & Toggle Widget, Weather Widget Forecast Addon is good one also..

[Desire HD General] leppie:
I am stuck with one for now, as my service provider's local outlet is useless (at this time anyways).

As I still wanted to use the phone till I can return it for fixing/replacement, I investigated a little.

Some things I discovered:

- It is NOT SIM card related (you can test for yourself)

- Not software related at all, many resets, and no trace in any logs

- Seems to happen when moving the phone, like putting in pocket, or plugging in charger or headphones most often, but more than often, just completely random.

- A support call to Leaf/HTC, hinted it might be battery/power related

- I have had the reboots since I got the phone, the only time it got less was the one time I charged from the power adapter (FAST CHARGE), all other times was using the USB port on PC (SLOW CHARGE)

- When using SLOW CHARGE, I would get up to 10 reboots a day (always when using the phone :(, very annoying.

So I decided to to FAST CHARGE again to see if the effect was not just a random piece of luck.

Three days after FAST CHARGE (and more FAST CHARGE) and very heavy usage, the phone has only rebooted twice! :D

It seems there is either a problem with the battery or more likely a borderline decoupling issue that FAST CHARGE seems to partially 'solve'.

Can anyone with this issue still, please verify you have less reboots using FAST CHARGE?

At least for me, it has my phone more bearable till I return it in the new year.

Cheers
