Hey guys!
I know this is some what of a weird discussion thread but wouldn't hurt asking. Since I didn't have the source code for our beloved 1 ii, I cannot go through the code to check if there is like a hidden high refresh rate mode for the screen (just like XZ premium back in the day) Did you guys check for it?
Thanks all!
Well kernel source is here, but for JP variant: https://developer.sony.com/file/download/open-source-archive-for-58-0-c-1-133/

Hi, i want to ask the devs: What's the tiwlan setting that has the most range. I have wi-fi at school, but i can't reach it. All those samsung galaxy fanboys in my class get the wifi with their phone, but my x8 just can't reach it. I tried playing with Tiwlan file, but changing values only make it worst, what are the best values to set for better range? Can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance
It's nice question .... l enabled n standard,but after two days get wifi error

It's the tx power that you need.make it higher for higher range,but you shouldnt set it to high, as thus could damage yoir wifi chip.220 or 225 woild be a good value.
wrong forum section for questions.
Hello all.
First - sorry if i post a dump post in a wrong place. I hope it's okay .
Second - i'm considering buying a new phone. New = another one, not brand new, but used (it's cheaper this way .
I have 2 candidates for now:
Sony Xperia J
Samsung Galaxy S Plus
How do you people think, which phone is a better choice in the means of performance, quality and future development on xda ?
I ask for opinions like advantages/drawbacks, not "i like samsung, so buy samsung".
In this price range there are also: Xperia Miro/Tipo, Xperia U, HTC Rhyme, Desire C.
So, how do you people think ?
Helo bro...first of all i would recommend u dat u dont go xperia j. The reason is dat the processor is 1ghz and runs wid the gpu of adreno 200 which our x8 runs on. Secondly the midranged smartphone dat i would recommend is xperia u..it runs on dual core 1 ghz processor the same u would find in xperia p...the ram is also friendly 512mb... Lastly i think it depends on ur taste per se...every ones view is different..

Thanks for a quick reply! I didn't know that U has dual core processor - i thought it's worse, because it has 'only 1ghz' and some stuff worse comparing to xperia J.
I'm waiting for next recommendations, this was a nice one!
I recommend Xperia U too.
But with U you actually should know these facts:
1-low battery backup ,comes with 1350 mah battery which can't feed your large screen & thirsty dual core processor. (White magic LCD can save 70% energy some times but it's not enough)
2- 12 gb user available memory which can be extended by sdcard. (U can use USB flash disk but it hard to handle & drains more power)
If don't play with your phone it's a perfect phone, stylish(won some rewards for design of 2012 phones)
I don't recommend galaxy advanced cause it's outdated & no official ics rom(+looking like s##t)
Think about Xperia P too
compare others at gsmarena.com
Sent From My BEAST , I mean X8
Hmm, 12gb is almost too much space for me, so it's not a problem!
And if the battery will last for at least 20h of using (1 day) this will be enough for me too.
I don't watch movies on phone and ocassionaly listen to some music or play a game, but mostly i use it to browse the web etc.
I will take a look at Xperia P.
Thanks! More replays are still very welcome!
Dont go for samsung galaxy s plus . my father has one and feels very cheap in hand the materials are cheap plastic.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
I'm currently thinking about the Xperia P. I thought Xperia U has a micro-sd card slot but i was wrong - and 4gb of storage withoth the possibility to extend it is a bit too little...
Xperia P is a little to expensive, though. I'll try to find it as cheap as possible, maybe i'll make it
Thanks for comments and don't hasitate to post another ones
EDIT:
i've ordered Sony Xperia U today! I will have to deal with 4gb only, but i hope i won't suffer too much . thanks for all the suggestions. cheers !
This thread can be closed, thanks!

Hi guys.. right now I am about to buy a new phone... SP comes into my consideration and i find it pretty cool and powerful.. Though.. yesterday I found out that there is also P6 in the offer... What would you recommend ? I am probably going for the SP, but P6 has got 4 cores. Does it make that much of a difference ?
Personally i dont know anything about P6. So my recommendation is SP. Go For SP.. But while purchasing pls check one main thing in SP. Touch problem while Charging. U cant use ur phone while Charging.. But new phones doesnot have that problem i think. Any way make sure at the first day of the Purchase...
And also put ur phone in a flat surface and then use it.. That also a famous SP problem.. So pls check both of this two problems first..

galaxy s3 has 4 cores and in benchmark the SP is much better then S3 with 4 cores. Also Xperia sp has 4g (LTE) better battery and Andreno 320 GPU also is best gpu 4 playing games... i think xperia sp is the right choice..
Sorry for english (not my native language)
Its not the ammount of cores that tells you if the performance is high or not. It is the overall feeling of a device.
I've tested both the SP and P6 and I find the SP more suiteble for me.
Reason:
- UI: I dont like the UI of huawei
- GPU: Adreno 320 is very powerfull
- CPU: Cores and speed dont tell everything
Things the SP has:
-Notificatio ledbar
- Bluetooth 4.0
- 4G (LTE)
- NFC
Things the P6 has:
- Wireless charging
- 2GB RAM
Go to the website of sony and huawei and compare the features and specs. Dont use comparison websites because not all the websites have the correct specs.
Also go to a store and try both phones
Has P6 a HDR Camera?

Yes but the SP too
The SP's 2 cores have a higher clock speed and the chipset in general has a superior manufacturer.
Don't think the P6 has 4G either.
The extra RAM on the P6 is useful though - 1 GB of RAM is OK, but Sony steal quite a lot of it for system resources - 2GB means you'd have to be doing insane amounts of multi tasking to ever worry about it.
I suspect there will be much more development on the SP, if you're into custom ROMS.
My reasons for chosing the SP were 4G and familiarity (I like using custom ROMS, know how Sony do things and am used to all the flashing tools etc.) - I also like the fact that not many people have the SP.
please see test of P6! the touchscreen response is very poor, however, the touch screen of the SP responds only in a few situations even bad. mostly is nice.
Thanks guys I am going for the SP... i am sure i wont regret ...thread can be closed
The screen of sp is horrible

P6在中国就是个垃圾。短续航，游戏性能低，发热量高和实际只有200Mhz的GPU。。
P6 in China is a waste. Short battery life, low gaming performance, high heat, and actually only 200Mhz for GPU. .

So u are lucky....
I can confirm the charging problem on my X Sp as well... But i changed it from service centre for free via DOA process.. And new one has no issues.. I can perfectly use my phone during charging and flat surface.. Issues are no longer present..

Tegra Overclock app developed by me isn't new and is being while in market for about an year. This time I have created something that motivated me to share in here. Its new in Android world but not completely unknown for PC users. Its something that's called Blur Buster and capable to drive android device display to above 60 Hz. I have successfully tested and added compatibility for Nvidia Shield, Tegra Note7 and Mad Catz MOJO.
I am currently interested to know if it works for other devices with Tegra 4 chip too and if I am not wrong this should allow the nvidia Shield owner to stream games at 60+ FPS on there devices. I want some solid information of this Game Stream service working successfully above 60 FPS before I post this content on Play Store. Of course the app is paid and hence only few will be able to test it who already own a copy or are willing to purchase it for testing purpose. If someone is willing to test without paying then just mail me at [email protected] to initiate the process, may have to buy first but once done he/she can have refund as per demand...
Also included is a new mod that unleashes Tegra4 based Shield to its actual potential that gives it a good overhaul in processing performance. I have attached pics for everyone as per proof of working.
1> First pic showing 94 FPS onscreen recorded with FPS Tool a free tool to check FPS on android devices. Give 120 FPS on Tegra Note 7
2> Second and Third images are Prime benchmark before and after applying nvidia Shield performance unlock mod. The Result is equivalent to roughly 15% actual performance increment as compared to stock device. Note this option works only after a reboot!
Link to the app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tegraoverclock
Was planning this for a while and found Christmas and new year is the perfect time to introduce something that is revolutionary in the hacking world. Eager to hear from you people and of course wishes to everyone for both Christmas and new year in advance
That's just really nice Discoveries... But I'm facing issues could you plz tell me in which is in tetra note 7 were you able to achieve that 120 fps...cause in lollipop and KitKat it does not seems to work .I have mailed you in detail

Is there any way to overclock the display of other phones ? I have a phone with an OLED display and would like to overclock to 75hz instead of stock 60hz
Hello which phones can be overclocked to 120Hz refresh rate using your app? Is a compatible kernel required or stock roms are enough? Thank you.
Guys, I want to congratulate all, Meizu has posted the source code of Linux kernel for Meizu Pro 5. This means that the Note 4 (with Exynos Kernel) has a chance to become even much better. I ask all developers who are still developing kernel, please port something!
Meixu Pro 5 (M576) - GitHub
Wow that'd be really cool. @djmax81 any chance that you'd be able to cook that in your kernel??? I've seen in live action the Meizu pro 5 and it is an incredibly fast phone....
It's not even on the same SoC, so what are we expecting it to tell us? The 5433 files are pretty much the same as the stock Samsung ones - they even same the same typos in them.

Thanks for let us this know about.
Cool thing huh @RaymanFX hopefully it gonna be useful for you. :good: :good: :good:
Isn't the driver sources the one that is missing, not the kernel sources since samsung already provides it?
I heard what the developer of ultimate kernel said, that meizu made totally new termodriver, "meizu-thermal". Where Note 5 have throttling (1.1Ghz - 1.3Ghz) - Meiuzu stably keep 2.1Ghz and very rarely fall to 1.7Ghz. At same time this phone is warm but not hot. Meizu GPU work with disabled DVFS and it's frequency hold on max 772Mhz. Also Meizu has double tap to wake, and wake gestures that don't drain battery. With a similar hardware Meizu has 8-8.5 hours... So Meizu has much better software then Samsung.
p.s. uk developer bought meizu pro 5....
