im assuming you're using setcpu..?

perhaps you have profiles set to be running at lower speeds. Even if your main screen max is at 1.5, the profiles will overrule.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BootloopedMillennials:
Could be a program using up resources while your running the test.

Just wondering if anyone else has watched many movies with NF ? I'm using the most recent version, but running off SD card.

Seems quite a bit slower than running under B&N stock 2.1
[Nook Color General] nootered:
What SD card, and also what specifications are you using?
[Nook Color General] stwallman:
I checked, and it is only a 4 GB Class 2 card (Sandisk). I suppose that could be having a significant impact ?

I'm not running an OC kernel either yet.

Is it possible to get at the internal memory when running NF off the SD card ?
[Nook Color General] synnth:
I have had very good results using QQPlayer on my OC'd NookColor at firmwares 1.0.1 and 1.1. I've yet to try out Froyo due to it's lack of video/audio playback.

With the overclock, all formats worked smoothly, but without, there was a bit of a stutter with some of them.

edit: I use a 16GB Class 2 uSD
[Nook Color General] panamamike:
Why is video poor on Froyo, is it due to lack of video support or the fact that its on SD or both?

Anyone know if it will be possible to get the video hardware support on Froyo?

Regards,

Mike
[Nook Color General] trillonometry:
Yeah all this love for the Nook and while its still early in it's life... running froyo from internal at the moment leaves me YouTube less... :/
[Nook Color General] aludal:
Obviously, no-one. No sound from CyanogenMod guys that hardware based video decoding AND rendering is enabled in their customized Android 2.3 (I suspect they customize stuff mostly for fast/smooth GUI and/or better 3D. When the same shaders of SGX530 refuse to act as video deinterlacing renderers in their build, they could say that they wash their hands and move on. Sure, that's what TI has stuck with their Zoom2 platform. Or Motorola with the following Droid X/2 phones. Remember, there's no hardware decoders support in Android if it's not for m4v. They have that principle, you know. Rockchip/Snapdragon don't

Mr. Deeper-blue of recent "Honeycomb on NC" fame has GUI hardware acceleration working. It's not video, and very far from getting hardware overlays (=zooming in/out HD video at will, and following the device's orientation, full augmented reality support, full HD video phone, etc.,. etc.) But we are all ears. Pity the A3.0 is more of a pure concept now, having nothing to do with a practical implementation on a 3-year old SoC OMAP3621 Google decided it doesn't like a base demo A3.0 machine.

In any case, for good video on a single-core ARM (plus GPU, plus DSP though) look for the work on Android 3.x, plus VOME engine donated by VisualOn for the AOSP 2.3 project.

However, if nothing of above helps much, get yourself dual-core TI OMAP4430 RIM PlayBook based on QNX and forget everything about those silly green dudes (for awhile though....too many Android hackers put Android on their Pandaboards somewhere back in summer 2010)

Consider it a rant, if you will. But it also a "bow" of sorts to Mr Deeper-blue who probably never bothered to look into "limitations" of either OMAP3621, or Android 3.0. He just did unthinkable. Now I won't be suprised to see Android 3.0 on my Pandigital Novel one of those days, lol.

-----------------------------------

[Nook Color General] panamamike:
This is pretty much what I was wondering about, will OMAP3621 see any support or potentially get proper drivers adapted to work with the various hacks.

Maybe if B&N comes out with their version of Froyo they may include what's needed to get the DSP support driver/interface...

overclocking will definitly speed things up
[Galaxy S I9000 General] coatercup:
I just had an idea if it was possible to edit the batterystats.bin file. This way we do not have to calibrate whatsoever and possibly "trick" the phone to use the battery longer before shutting down.

As I understood from the forums, full charge 100% is around 4.2v and flat 0% around 3.5v. This bring us a delta of 0.7v = 100%. If we could edit and write say 3.3v at 0% then we would gain 0.2v and extend the battery life for another 20%+? :)

What do you think? Probably for a start, those with excellent battery life could help to post their batterystats.bin file and let the others with draining issues try out your calibration file?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] DamianGto:
Well it wont work.

First that file is basicly a logfile.

Second the sgs need that power to work right.

Third you can damage the battery if you try to lower the power to much.

So if you want better battery time you need to se what app you use and that kind of things.

You can also buy a battery so you have more power.

You can also try to change it under the day.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] coatercup:
Thanks for the reply.

Just thought that since the phone load is the same and thus power consumption rate remains, only possible issue would be the battery information to the phone is not accurate:

battery is either not yet fully charged before the phone cuts off charging and/or the battery is not yet fully depleted before the phone force shutdown thus showing the 'effect' of fast drain
[Galaxy S I9000 General] DamianGto:
Well all is a calculation on the power in the battery, but the phone need to now what is the max value and the low value the battery have to make a right calculation. Thats way it often works to delete the file when you have full power.

So its very hard to use others file, it will not be how your battery is.

Maby there is some place in the system you can tweak this, but its not good for the battery to over load it or lower the power to much.

MAby you get a better battery life for some time, but the battery will get broken and bad alot faster, then you need to buy a new battery. So i dont see any gain on that..
[EVO Shift 4G General] Jeezimus:
So on my permrooted Shift with 4G antenna on and max signal (middle of NYC) I can easily tether to my laptop. However, once tethered and running a speedtest I'm only downloading at a meager .50 Mbs! The speedtest directly from the phone is upwards of 8. Is this the experience of everyone else so far as well? Perhaps we need to wait on a new kernel or the app itself to be updated?

Thank you!
[EVO Shift 4G General] Evo_Shift:
Same for me. I am in Minneapolis. I get pretty much 3G speeds even on 4G. I am just glad it would work in a pinch. Maybe the wireless tether app needs an update I am thinkinh.
[EVO Shift 4G General] Jeezimus:
yeah unfortunately for me I was hoping to be able to use this as my primary internet source. Oh well I know there was a fix that came out for the evo, I'm sure something similar will be found for the shift.
[EVO Shift 4G General] alher591:
Yes my speeds are terribly slow!
[EVO Shift 4G General] rajing:
I had the same issue as you and it's just wireless tether. Use EasyTether, it works great.
[EVO Shift 4G General] Evo_Shift:
If I had a need for it a lot I would maybe consider it but for $10(to be able to use https) I think I can do without.
[EVO Shift 4G General] Jeezimus:
Alright...I'm in it for 10 bucks. Will report findings.

edit:

Although using EasyTether registers much faster speeds on a speedtest (almost 5 Mbs), it's FAR from stable. The hangups cause it to run about as slow as using wireless tether for root users.

My advice is to stay away from EasyTether and save your money. The boys at EasyTether will have a fix or we'll see some code to change up the system like was available on the evo to max it out.

I'm getting my money back lol.
[EVO Shift 4G General] alher591:
What kind if speeds did the EVO get after the update?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drcrappants:
I've read many complaints about the Vibrant, but those were from several months ago and may very well be fixed. I've seen a lot more results from searching "vibrant sucks" than "hd2 sucks" but again, they might be obsolete now.

With that said, would you rather have the vibrant or hd2(with android) for the long term if you could not buy another phone for 3-4 years? I am currently trying to make a decision soon--never owning a smartphone before, i know very little so i hope your input can help me out--among bold9780, hd2, or vibrant. dont plan on getting a data plan soon and want to keep the phone for a few yrs (so dont want a phone thats on the decline, getting replaced soon by newer project phones).

I noticed the HD2 pales in specs in comparison with the vibrant, so I came here for an opinion. I figure the Vibrant is more expensive so i can sell to get an HD2 if i want to in the future. Of course, the BBerry is somehow priced higher than all of them.

Feedback from real users is welcome! Thanks for your time.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bosslabs:
the vibrant sucks rants were because we did not get the 2.2 update from samsung/tmobile on time. Now that we have vibrant should be your clear choice, amazing amoled screen and great hardware :)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bartek25:
if u clubb allot dont get hd2 i pulled mine out and it lit up the dance floor thing is big , i traded to a vibrant until i started flashing cusom roms i hated it so much i wannit to throw against the wall but 300 price tag on it stopped me , get the vibrant imo now that 2.2 ficgggyial froyo is out its lil bit less lagg and its fun as u find tons of apps on market too btw phone overclocks to 1.4 ghz o_O and playstation emulator is on its way too
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drcrappants:
thank to both of you for the quick response! what a great forum and community of members!

its nice to know that there are no major complaints then if those were of the past. couldn't they have 'flashed' android 2.2 onto their vibrant? not sure if i am using the term correctly.

@bartek, hard to understand some parts of your post but thanks! dont understand the club+hd2 stuff.

what are the current CONS of the Vibrant, from the vibrant users, then? so far I believe GPS was a big issue.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spartoi:
You should just wait for the Vibrant 4G.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cashyftw:
Cons of the Vibrant so far: GPS, that's pretty much all I know of, I'm telling you man, when Samsung releases the source code for 2.2 this phone will be amazing, I was thinking about trading my Vibrant for an hd2 because the hd2 had more updates than the Vibrant, even had Gingerbread, but as known, it's not native, and will never run as good as the vibrant will, but the design of the hd2 is way better than the Vibrant, and if you like flash, then the hd2 is your choice, the only reason I haven't traded is because I get this feeling that I'm taking a step back in technology, instead of moving forward.. I'm not sure why though.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hazard99:
I will say I love my vibrant even though I see a lot of people selling theirs. I had an hd2 and the digitizer went out. Though it was fun at first I got tired of trying to manage the battery. I have to admit this was before nand came out.

The support that we do have on the vibrant is top notch. Ive tried every rom out there and they all do well I just decided to stick with team whiskey.

I often ask myself would I rather have another hd2? The answer is no. fantastic phone but I love the vibrant so much more. Its a beast of a phone with a great cpu and gpu. The hd2 while versatile is dated. A lot of people had hardware buttons fail I wasnt looking forward to that at all. The ease of bring this thing back from a brick is a total plus. While It does feel cheap at first I have come to respect it as a phone.The vibrant can have a forward facing camera while the hd2 will never have one.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anthonys2r:
Both phones are already declining, with the Vibrant getting replaced by the Galaxy S 4G (basically a Vibrant with 4g radio, FFC, and 1gb internal but 16 external sd card)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hazard99:
I dont think its worth it to choose the galaxy s personally. I dont get much use out of 3g as it is and a ffc mod is 20 bucks minus having the offical warranty. And if i read you correctly It no longer has 16 gig internal? That just blows.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eunkipark92:
He already said he's not looking forward to get data plan anytime soon so hw should be fine with vibrant. I had mytouch 4g after a week or so u never use ur front facing camera unless ur taking a pic of ur self...the video chat is hella buggy and no one has it..
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drcrappants:
thanks everyone for their responses. isnt galaxy S and vibrant same thing? i have considered waiting for the newest version of the vibrant, which should come out in a month or so? im actually getting a phone for free from a family plan sign up, so i dont know if the new vibrant will be available. i wont be getting a data plan, so i dont know if that completely nullifies the new phone benefits (especially if it costs more).

what other phones have better specs than the vibrant thus far? hope it can stand up to the new phones in terms of specs for several years
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Addel:
yeah. my vibrant is godly. 4g? what 4g? whats that!? why do i need 21mbps speeds when 5-7mbps is fast as hell already. and what? $10 extra!? NO thanks!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hazard99:
You can get a smartphone with no data???? how?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drcrappants:
uhh family plan. 3 people, 1 new phone. my parents already have usable ones and cant figure out technology anyways. i went with 2 other people who had their own plan and i think part of the deal was they couldnt get new phones either. big sacrifices :(
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] texas_born:
I still have my broken hd2. I do not suggest getting one. The phone wouls freeze often and I had a custom rom that did nandroidot help the situation. I did put androis on it and it worked flawlessly for about 10 then suddenly my touch screen started to crap out. I thought it was due to the known issue of running android on an hd2 but the actual digitizer would not respond. I reaf on the hd2 forums it was due to android causing the phone to overheat. Long story short. A friend hooked it up with the vibrant and I have been very happy. Its not perfect but what "smart" phone is? I would wait for the galaxy s 4g like everyone else is suggesting.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cezzarmicu:
Coming from HD2 with android NAND (Clockworkmod), I can readily say that Vibrant(with froyo, custom or official) is much much better than the HD2 in terms of sheer performance. The video recording capability blows the HD2 out of the water. And the superamoled screen is such a treat. And the TV-out functionality is a big plus as well - you can mirror your phone activity, including HD video playback, with HD TV's :D
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drmosh:
I have both, Vibrant and HD2... I'm running NAND Gingerbread on HD2 and it's slow and laggy... Snapdragon should be called Lagdragon...

That being said I don't know if I would buy another Samsung product either...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oka1:
I have a HD2 Like it it has a bigger screen, sense by HTC is nice........... That's it

Way worse battery, op system is no longer supported by Microsoft. I have Android loaded via dual boot, but this means it is ported through the sd card...... slower buggy and has soft lock/boot problems from time to time.

The Vibrant,,,,,, WAY EASIER to customize, better screen, better battery life more custom things you can load, hard to really brick so it is a good phone for a novice.

And, it is so much like the Nexus S ...........that means we will be able to port their leaks to this phone..........

Vibrant is just WAY better
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scrizz:
LMFAO.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zepsblackdog:
I sent back my first smart phone which was the HD2. It was hella-laggy and buggy. The clunky Windows OS just destroyed this phone's potential.

Ordered the Vibrant, and was pleased....

ROOTED AND Installed a custom ROM and was VERY PLEASED!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hazard99:
I like the positive's in this thread.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oniyuri:
i love my vibrant.

the major cons i had with this phone as stock was the RFS(why Samsung, why?!) and the touchwiz launcher (iPhone clone much?). Other than that, the only thing that truly could've made this phone imperfect was the wonky GPS that some ppl have serious issues with. I guess I lucked out there because after the JI6 update, my gps worked a bit better.

now for the pros:

- SAMOLED (need i say more?)

- the smexy hardware; once you get the right ROM on this thing, it flies!

- for all intents and purposes, this phone is quite robust: it's danged hard to brick this phone and even if you managed that, i'd say like 97% of the time, it'll be a soft brick that's extremely easy to get out of.

- good dev community: granted, we don't have cyanogen mod but we've got team whiskey, einherjar (sp?) and the folks who do Axura. i'm generally a team whiskey fangirl though. i believe they make the best and most stable ROMs. (Ofc, the only downside to that is that TW updates at such a fast pace, you'd be lucky if you don't end up flashing a new ROM every 7-9 days on avg - and I've seen these guys pass updates after just releasing a ROM in like 3-4 days, lmao.)

Now, when it comes to the hard bricks, I'd usually say it was more because of user error than anything else imho.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drcrappants:
thanks everyone!

seems like there are little to no negatives!

how do you select the correct ROM?

what else should i do after getting it, perhaps some sort of cover? (I get it tomorrow and want to prepare to treat it right and set it up right)

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oniyuri:
pfft! an iphone is nothing but samsung guts & a lg screen.

i just think that the touchwiz launcher looks very similar to the iOS (at least icon wise) and i know it's that way just for the aesthetic value so the galaxy s line could drag more ppl away from the iCult.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] epakrat75:

[Android Apps and Games] migalito:
Hi, I'm developing a music quiz for Android and before I launch it in the Android Market I would like to release a public beta for testers and hear some feedback and suggestions from you.

The concept of the game is simple and nothing new. A song plays for 20 seconds and the user has to answer which band or song is playing.

The main difference from the apps that are available in Android Market is that UMQ does not use the music that you have in SD. Instead you can choose to play music from a last.fm username, a artist you love or from one tag available in last.fm. This makes the possibilities of playing UMQ almost infinitive.

The High Scores are powered by ScoreLoop and is Ad supported. The score is the time left.

Known Issues:

- In time when passing from 01 to 00 it takes 2 seconds

- It's only optimized for HVGA (320x480)

- Sometimes appears songs that are not related with the tag, or artist

- If the name as a & sometimes don't appear the text after the &

- Some state buttons images are missing

- In artist game mode sometimes it gets stuck, you have to go back several times to give force close or kill the app

- Some songs appear repeatedly in one game

- The Options button does not work

Each game of UMQ generates about 20MB of data, so it recommended that you use a Wi-fi connection.

All feedback are welcome and appreciated.

Donwload v0.2.3

Hope you like UMQ :)
