[Q] Vibrant + Photosphere (4.2) = Bad?? - Vibrant Android Development

Installed the 4.2 Photosphere on my Vibrant running SlimBean 2.8 (which is very stable) and the camera works but lags to no end, even after changing the bulid.prop, so Im assuming this is due to our older hardware... yes or no?

Most likely yes. The app is built for the nexus 4 which has better hardware than the galaxy s3. The image/camera processor in the krait is definitely much better than the one in the hummingbird.

Photosphere doesn't work on vibe because it doesn't have a gyroscope. The camera should work fine without a build prop edit.
I approve this message.

Why cant Devs port HTC ONE V Vanilla Rom? Same specs...

Why cant Devs port HTC ONE V Vanilla Rom? Same specs...
hey guys i would like to know why there has been no talk of porting a one v rom as there are so many similarities eg.
Screen Size, Ram, Camera, GPU, CPU, etc
i was thinking it would be best to port a vanilla ROM as sense would have increasing problems but also a stripped down version would allow the Rom to adapt to our small internal.
here are some roms which could be ported:

any feedback is appreciated
thanks
Maybe because it's sense 4.0 LITE so they don't want to port it.

go to nexus one developing section.
there's sense 4.0 ROM.
It's much faster than sense 3.5
Nothing similar.
The CPU is the same as Desire HD/S/MyTouch 4G, being 1GHz it's still a different architecture and considerably faster than N1's.
The GPU blows the N1's away by a factor of 4. Nowhere near similar.
The storage is eMMC and not NAND, which means - different boot.
The camera is way different.
And even with One V's almost complete similarity to the older family above, without a proper HTC kernel the above mentioned devices don't have completely functional port, just like N1 doesn't have.

So...What about Jelly Bean, Android 4.1?

Well, Google has announced an incremental update to Ice Cream Sandwich, called Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, and it's Phone and tablet UI like ICS.
Little info here.
http://developer.android.com/about/versions/jelly-bean.html
So, it's using ICS and Honeycomb driver model, but there are other things like the so-called "LAG free" that seems to be a real change inside android, but I think devs will get a workaround. So, is possible to port this new update?

Maybe, hope that ...
Right now we still haven't stable Cyanogenmod 9 (ICS),
But I think if we -hope soon, then we could have a stable Cyanogenmod 10 (Jelly Bean) .. What ????!!!! Cyanogenmod 10 !! looks good
Thanks for news
Best Regards
Seems it's not a bug update..close to ics, so just might happen.
Don't forget about hardware limitation.
We won't get all the features from Jelly Bean. Even ICS, we won't.
I think CM9 is already a magical ROM coming for us.
To have a Jelly Bean, it's quadratic magic! lol.
Let's hope we have CM9 without bugs and then AOKP too.
For now, it's more logical.
We have not got ICS till yet and you are talking about jelly bean
Still a long way to go
Real Contributors Dont BeG for Thanks
Cheers
Like I knew somebody is going to ask is somebody going to port JB to our device... it does not give us THAT much improvements to spend time on development.
And, what everybody said above, even ICS is not usable (no camera, lack of RAM, lots of bugs). Luckily, i'm happy with my Gingerbread CM7.2, and i'm just watching the situation closely
ICS CM9 Camera?
Can someone tell me whether Camera is working on the most recent CM9 ROM (GalaxyICS) for Galaxy mini.
I heard that Camera is somewhat working and we may have a working Camera in the next release. Is this true, someone give some info on this, please.

But we may have working camera in few releases

We already have a working camera in the new upcoming cm 9
Then there will be bug updates though fm radio has a long way to go but stock ics can still get a radio so we can hope cm 10 or jelly bean to start by next year minimum, and cheers.

Don't get over-excited guys, ics barely works on gmini right now due to low ram *edit* low EVERYTHING, and I assume that jellybean will simply be more resource-demanding, so just pull your horses until we get properly working ics m'kay? To be honest, I don't believe that we will ever get cm9/ics as stable as cm7, simply due to hardware limitations of galaxy mini.
Next year this phone will be the worstest of the worst... cmon, 600MHz processor in 2013?
Forget about Jelly Bean, we still have bugs in ****ing gingerbread (camera orientation), ICS is not stable enough too...
it is possible to make a buggy android 4.1 port from gnexus ...
but i dont think that that will be cool xD

Galaxy Nexus is ARMv7. Just wait for the source.
Question first...Why port something we know won't ever be able to run stable on our device because we don't have drivers which is kept close sourced?
And also that drivers just can't be compiled as with happened to the Adreno200 drivers for ICS to armv6.
You need to rewrite the whole code, possibly even write new code to drivers for our device. And I doubt the people who make these drivers and publish these sort of stuff want to spend any extra work on trying to make it work on our devices.
We'll be stuck with Gingerbread guys. End of story.
No, JB is a "small" update. Drives from ICS will work fine on JB. So, it may even be a little faster. Anyway, I will try to build it when source comes out.
sry not the kernel, it needs to be modded -.-

Lol, show me one advanced user that still has HTC Dream as his main phone? After all it has 528 MHz CPU (slow POS just like our mini), and has been released 2 years (or more?) earlier than Galaxy mini - how can you compare that?
And.. why would one buy an HTC - they are so ****ing complicate to flash - HBOOT, fastboot, bootloader downgrade, firmware downgrade, using the command prompt in windows - nothing here on Samsung

[Q] searching for vanilla jb roms with s-pen spt

Apologies for the fairly noobish question, but I am trying to track down some good ROMS for the G-Note, preferably a vanilla style JB with S-Pen support. Any suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks in advance
nothing with the samsung apps of Smemo or snote. only work with TW... JB roms has other apps that might work with spen

Yeah I like Touchwiz and the Samsung apps (s-memo, photo editor, s planner...) so I'm holding out for a Jelly Bean build with all of 'em. I've been searching around and haven't found one yet.
I am not sure if Paranoidandroid Utaka has pen support. I've been using this rom for quite some time and love it. It seems very vanilla JB. I had to manually install Gapps (install zip) and Maps (Google Play).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1871713
There are no stock JB ROMs for the N7000 yet.
That said, all Jelly Bean ROMs (CM10-based) support the S Pen, but you need to find your own apps for using it, like Jotter: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.intulon.android.jotter
Spen apps from samsung rely on TouchWiz framework, so as yet there are none available until samsung release the jb update. There are alternative apps that'll work with cm based roms such as cm10 and paranoid android as mentioned above, but none of them support Touchwizz and never will do.

Ics,jb or gingerbread?

Hello everyone, im new to this device.I bought it a couple of days ago and its awesome i love it.But one quick question, im on gingerbread actually, is it worthy to upgrade to ics or jelly bean ?.

If you want maximum battery life, minimum performance, best stability but less features, stay on gingerbread. If you want balance between battery life and performance, great stability and a few more features, upgrade to ics. And if you want average performance, high number of tw features, but really low stability and average battery upgrade to jelly bean 4.1.2
---------- Post added at 11:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:58 PM ----------
I'm not finished yet.
Now is for aosp/cm roms. If you want better performance than jb 4.1.2 and the most number of features but low stability and even lower battery life, upgrade to jb 4.2.2 (root box, carbon, slimbean, cm etc).
Now if you want something that is the latest, the newest, the highest optimized performance but is experimental and has the lowest in stability and battery life and highest number of bugs then try cyanogemod 4.3 experimental build (4.3 discussion in general section but locked ROM thread in original development section)
---------- Post added at 11:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:05 PM ----------
So as you can see as the android version number goes up, it becomes more and more worst in battery life. (BTW questions should go in q&a section and please hit thanks if I've helped you) and I'm actually telling you everything based on my experiences. If different ROM with different android versions

I see, well maybe later i will upgrade to ics at least, thanks.
ics is the worst update so far...... even éclair and froyo were better than ics... so either you stay with gb or upgrade to jb..
Well i just plugged my phone onto my pc and it updated it to ics, as far as i tested it, its better than gingerbread, but well i need to test it farther.Thanks for all your suggestions.

So as far as i read, that brickbug only happens with custom ics roms and with specific kernels, i got my update officially from kies so i dont know if this bug still applies to me.And if it applies why does my phone updated successfully ?, im using it at the moment and everything is ok.Which kind of information do you need in order to tell me if this bug exists on my device?.
My updated android version is now 4.0.4
->Base band N7000UBLR1
->Kernel version 3.0.15-N7000UBLR3-CL890184 [email protected] #3 SMP PREEMPT fri jul 13 20:10:47 KST 2012
->Compilation number IMM76.UBLR3 .
Edit: Regarding that "safe kernel" that i apparently must flash since im on ics, i looked up the thread of that safe kernel but i dont know where to look for my specific kernel code, any help here would be usefull.
Edit 2: After looking for my code apparently is UBLR3 and there isnt any safe kernel for that version ?.

Read more and you'll see the brickbug is present on any device with an unsafe emmc chip, all ics and quite probably JB kernels are affected. Keep reading and get yourself fully familiar.

MotoX Voice Commands In ROMs

I was thinking of making the switch to a custom ROM (I have been rooted and such for a while now) but I was wondering if there are any ROMs that support the second processor for voice commands. I use these frequently, and really love them...
I also wouldn't mind the active display notifications but it's not a big deal if there isn't one.
I saw an old thread from 2007 but didn't think gravedigging it was a good idea, but I imagine this question is asked all the time so I am sorry if I missed a more recent thread.
Only stock based roms. Not cm/aosp roms.
Read the first posts in the threads. ?
