I'm meant to be packing but I had to post as this is being typed from ubuntu on the Adam.

Haven't made any poper progress yet, got wifi up and noticed that syslog was eating all my cpu, after I stopped that I noticed a decent speed up.

Locking at the kernel log is said that Cannot read proc file system: 1 - Operation not permitted. too be honest it could be a number of things. Anyone else getting this? I also sudo chown -R gdm: /var/lib/gdm to get to the login prompt, I'm afraid I'm a noob at this so it may be that I screwed some permissions while extracting?

Great to hear there is progress on the touchscreen and cheers to Jar0b_ for carrying on the seeding!

Cheers again

Great to hear that the torrent is being seeded and also good to see xda msgs posted from Ubuntu on adam.

How did you extract the rootfs, and which rootfs did you use/create?

Ok everyone, all the best with the moving, packing, exams and other work!
[Adam Android Development] strahl:
Hi paronnax :)

How did you get a native natty install to boot? Whenever I tried it I never reached the state where the framebuffer device is initialized. The yellow LED showed CPU activitiy but I never got an output to my PixelQi display.

Could you give a quick HowTo what files to nvflash to which partition and how you generated the filesystem on your SDCard?

:) stefan
[Adam Android Development] paronnax:
Hi Stefan,

Tillium posted a good HowTo last week. Have you followed those instructions? (see below)

I'll aim to get a step-by-step guide up tomorrow night.

A quick note for when you do get it all up and running:

to install new packages you will need to upgrade a few packages

sudo apt-get -f install

Then before you shut the system down you will have to

cd ~/packages
sudo dpkg -i libfix/*

If you are using Tillium's rootfs, use the script "libc-fix"
[Adam Android Development] paronnax:
Hi All,

Apologies for not posting a bootloader howto yet we will get one up soon

For those focusing on getting the touchscreen working, I have attached the files I have been playing around with.

There are two flavors here. The first is a simple xorg configuration that I have booting into the gui (no touch working yet). The second is one that aims to get the hdmi output, (also sound etc.) working.

For the xorg.conf I have working with the gui, rename xorg.confgui to xorg.conf and copy to X11

Install the arm xserver-xorg-input-evdev debian file. I haven't been able to install this file yet - need to investigate why it fails.

Hopefully the arm xserver-evdev install will be the final piece of the puzzle for the touchscreen.

The xorg.conf with the tegra driver does not load into the gui. When I run

startx

it gives an error on an "undefined symbol picturescreenprivelages ...".

I have read that this error is to do with a file in \usr\include\xorg. but no luck yet.

xorg.conf:

etx\X11

libnv files:

Dear Guru's...

I've flashed the SGS, with JS3 from samfirmware & odin...

Everything looks fine until reboot...

The phone keeps vibrating and do have the following error in recovery mode : 'Update media Can't mount dbdata..."

Conclusion it doesn't boot at all...

Any clues on how to solve that ?

ManyMany Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:

And download mode also working...

Is there any rom that I can put ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
if you can get download mode working you can flash another ROM thru Odin, start of on a stock ROM then work your way back to a custom ROM if thats what u want.

[G1 Android Development] techjosh:
If you've been experiencing decreased battery life with recent versions of android or kernels you're probably pretty frustrated. The problem is that nobody seems to know what causes it or how to stop it. I was bouncing back and forth between this forum and cyanogenmod's forum and somewhere between the two I came across a new kernel made by ezterry for use with CM6.1. One of the patch contributers explained how his patch was supposed to help with battery life. I don't know if it does or not but the discussion shifted to how the adbd binary was respawning even when not connected to usb, and that got me thinking...

What if you turn off "USB Debugging" (uncheck option at Settings -> Application -> Debugging -> USB Debugging) That should keep adbd from starting at all.

The only downside is that you can't use ADB to connect to the phone from your computer when it is disabled. That may be a pain for devs and rom modders but once I've got a new build up and running I don't normally use adb anyways.

I've tried it on 3 different G1's and I am seeing increased battery life. It may not be 100% of where it was before but it is definitely better for me... either that or I'm going crazy...

So please, try it yourself and let people know here if it helps. And I apologize for the people whose work gave me this idea... I'd like to attribute your work to you but for some reason I can't find the thread I was looking at. If I (or someone else) find the thread again I'll update it here.

Update:

farmatito posted about adbd respawning here
[G1 Android Development] highlandsun:
I tried it, didn't prevent the drain.

When the battery drain circumstance occurs, you'll see from the Spare Parts / Battery History that the system has been running 100% of the time, i.e., something has prevented it from going to sleep. I see this happening even with USB Debugging turned off. Also, sometimes it still occurs even when I reboot after charging. I think a full power cycle is needed then, not just a reboot.
[G1 Android Development] JuliusCes:
I also tried with USB debugging off and the battery drain was still there.
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
I think it is a problem in the kernel

adb is in userspace

I know ( around about ) when it started..

but for now to get better battery reboot if you mated your phone, have a cig, a drink of milk or whatever it is you kids do after stuff that drained you

Kernel 2.6.34.7

Hi,

I had the same problem related with the battery drain when I was using Cyanogenmod 6.1. But the problem was solved when I flashed to kernel version 2.6.34.7

Regards,
[G1 Android Development] d00m:
My phone can idle fine for days if I'm not using it but the second I use the alarm app over night I wake up to find it in the red when it was fully charged the night before. At least for me, the alarm app is stopping it from going into "sleep" mode.
[G1 Android Development] erickdj:
the solution was to flash a slightly older kernel, it was version 2.6.34.7, this was posted over at the cyanogen mod G1 forum. I had the battery drain issue, once I flashed the older kernel via recovery everything was back to normal.
[G1 Android Development] highlandsun:
That's good to know, maybe someone can track the changes since 2.6.34.7 and identify the problem...

[G1 Android Development] nagash91:
I'll do it, but before I have to prepare the mathematical analysis exam :D

(omg I hate it)

Firerat do you knows if I can patch the newer kernel with the old ramhack that add 10mb removing for 3D rendering?

I think would great 24mb instead of 14 :D

(in this moment I'm using CSDIv4 with +8mb from the old ezterry's kernel and my G1 seems a nexus one :D)
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
from your post I doubt you can patch anything

you seem to understand very little

sure you can patch in the old ram hack, but that will render most things unusable

in future don't ask questions implying that you can, just do it and see that you can't

fool..
[G1 Android Development] nagash91:
Ahah yes I can.

I never compiled anything about android roms or kernels, true. But I want to begin.

I have the skills to do it, my problem is the time :rolleyes:

I think that I have to compile kernels from source changing some piece of code.

If there are compatibility problems between patches and old kernels codes is a little bit problematic, but I don't think so.

I asked about old ram hack because I never compiled android kernel, so I don't know if the old 1.6 kernels are similar to newer kernels.

Personally I would like to exchange 3D for 10mb more, but don't know if it could break other thinks.

I don't like gallery 3D :p (don't like in G1, because it's too heavy)

I will try when I have time

Try using ezbifftestkernel. Search for it and you will find it. Use it with your ROM. You could try any ROM so long as you have the correct Radio, SPL and you wipe before you Flash the ROM. I am trying out ezbifftest kernel and it seems to be holding good on Battery.

Im planning on buying a 16 gb microsd card but all i can find is cards class 2 is that enough for recording 720p and loading applications installed to the SD card ? keep in mind that i also plan un buying a optimus 2x which has 1080p recording

Which brand do you like better? sandisk? kigston? trascend?

I read that sandisk class 4 cards are REALLY good but they dont show up in their website or amazon :/ , it seems they only sell class 2 cards, and kingston offers cards class 10 and 4 , class 10 seems a little excessive
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] iammodo:
Class 4 but really class 6 is what u need class 2 will die
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] AllGamer:
yeah minimum a class 4

class 2 is just a pain, it will make you want to throw the phone away, and explode it into a million tiny bits

class 6 is the normal speed for a fluid experience
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] EarlZ:
Im using a Sandisk 32GB class 2 card, it writes at 5~7Mb/s depending if its a large file or several smaller ones and read as higher than 15Mb/s
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Chad_Petree:
class 2 will die? u mean its on its way out?

Ive been reading good comments about the sandisk cards, but they only sell class 2 cards :/ , what brands are u guys using?
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] kms108:
If you are getting a 16gb card, or less sandisk, kingston or toshiba, class 2 or class 4 offers similar read/write speed, although the toshiba and kingston is a little faster, the sandisk is much stable.

Read is about 11-14mb

write is about 8mb

I had a toshiba 16gb class 2 in my i9000, it plays 720p videos without any problems, now i am using a lexar 32gb class 10, results aren't any different.

Hope this helps.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] soulzero:
lexar 32gb class 10? jezus christ you must have payen an arm and a leg for that ****.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Chad_Petree:
so basically you're saying i can buy any card i like and itll be fine? :confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] kms108:
Approximate usd 85.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Electroz:
The class designation of SD Cards ONLY represents the sustained WRITE speed to the card in MB/s. So, class 2 means it can be written to at 2MB/s, while class 10 means it can be written to at 10MB/s.

The designation has no reference whatsoever to the read speed of the card. So, basically every response stating otherwise in this thread is wrong. You should be able to get suitable sustained read speeds out of any class 2 or higher SD Card for the purposes you will be using it for. It will just take you longer to transfer the data to it in the first place. As for video recording from your phone, class should should be plenty as I'm pretty sure 720P comes in under 2MB/s.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] soulzero:
Wow, yea. Just that i seen some online shops which class 2 32gb cost 100$

But on amazon the lexar class10 32gb is really cheap...

http://www.amazon.com/Lexar-MicroSD...610M/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1296152464&sr=8-1

Anyway, i got a 16gb class2 card (a-data) and i can play 720p and record just fine...

Electroz is right. Its only about transferring and stuff.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] kms108:
The speed of the card used in the phone does not make much of a difference, its onlt when you transfer data to and from Pc, but its always best to get the fastest available, if the budget is the main problem, consider getting a kingston or toshiba, but make sure you get one that is made in japan, as the taiwan version is a litttle slower, japan version are becoming harder to get now, since the japan factor has transferred their production to the taiwan site.

The classes stated on each card is only the minimum it will reach.

Class 2 at least 2 mb read/write

class 4 at least 4 mb read/write. etc.

So it can be anything above the actual figures.

For more info on microsd, see my link in the sig, although its a little out dated.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] kms108:
The actual retail price for the lexar 32gb class 10 is 149 usd.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] NZtechfreak:
No problems with 32GB Class 2 here, it can record and decode 720p just fine, and there is nothing else as intensive as those tasks that you'll be doing with this handset (may not be enough to support 1080p in future handsets, but that remains to be seen).

Don't buy into this rubbish about needing Class 4 or 6 cards, unless you regularly load very large numbers of small files to your card, in which case you may want the higher write speeds.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] AllGamer:
when you run apps and/or games off the SD (App2SD) the slower the card the more time it takes to have a fluid experience, specially heavy stuff from gamesoft, or simply opening the application manager and waiting for the icons to load

repeat the same tasks with a slower card vs a faster card and you'll see the difference

of course you'll not really see much of a difference, unless you card is more than 50% full, and have over 300+ apps installed

so at £43 pounds i easily get 2x Adata 16 GB class 6

which i already have many (each of my 5 phones has one, plus another one on the video camera CountourHD 1080p), and they work really good

LOL :p i always run out of battery before i run out of space in my video camera :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] EarlZ:
If your getting cards from a non generic name brand, the read speeds should be around 15-25Mb/s , My class 6 card actually had a slower read speed of 15Mb/s compared to my Class2 ( 28Mb/s )

At the end of the day the difference between loading something was barely noticeable even skipping to different portions of a 3.7GB movie, Im guessing the phone it self is the bottleneck and not the card.

1% or 99% full should have ZERO effect on the read/write speed this is not some mechanical drive nor having 1 or all the apps in the market.

EDIT:

Again the class rating is only a rate on what is the minimum write speed the card can handle, sandisk rates their 32GB at class 2 when it writes at 6-7Mb/s ( making it class 6 ) on the phone and about 10Mb/s using a card reader ( making it class 10 )
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] kms108:
yeh, buying from a local store is cheaper, from the same price of a kingston 16gb class 10, you can get a 32gb class 4, but the fastest microsd on the market is the kingston 32gb class 10, but stock is very limited due to high prices, and you probable need to place an order and pay in advanced, i'm still searching for one, since the last time i heard about it about 9 months ago.

adata are the cheapest cards now, but the speed are rather slow, compared when they only released the 8gb about a year ago.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] wt230076:
i find that a data are the worst just very slow at uploading. id suggest you try stay with a well known brand sandisk, kingston, etc . class 2 just slows the whole phone down to a crawl even the music player becomes a snail with one of those cards.
