Guest TechnoLover Posted May 23, 2011 Report Share Posted May 23, 2011 (edited) Hello everyone, as my phone has a bad response on the soft keys I worked on a patch and I think I found one, but I need some testers who want to test out the patch, primary some people who have a bad response on the soft keys :P Edited May 23, 2011 by TechnoLover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest harylauw Posted May 24, 2011 Report Share Posted May 24, 2011 what fix? thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TechnoLover Posted May 24, 2011 Report Share Posted May 24, 2011 (edited) it's a fix for your soft keys when they don't work very well, for example your home button does not work properly when you push it when the phone is on the desk and not in your hand. I try to fix this, it was sometimes the same on the Liquid S100 EDIT: Kernel added be sure that you're on a Froyo Bin & reboot phone in bootloader and run per terminal fastboot -i 0x0502 boot Acer-Liquid-MT-Kernel-24052011-161035.img After a reboot you have your old Kernel back Acer_Liquid_MT_Kernel_24052011_161035.img Please give Feedback, if the Keys work better, the same or even worse than before Edited May 24, 2011 by TechnoLover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest TechnoLover Posted May 24, 2011 Report Share Posted May 24, 2011 It should work on any acer bin and/or acer based rom, I use it on top of Metalounay but it should work an any bin cause it's just acer kernel source, modified. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have only Froyo kernel sources. The ramdisk, and the init script are different from Froyo to Gingerbread. So it is intend to be flash on Froyo only, you'll stuck at Acer logo on Gingerbread. If i flash back a Froyo bin i'll try it and let you know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TechnoLover Posted May 24, 2011 Report Share Posted May 24, 2011 ah sorry I forgot <_< of course it has to be on top of a Froyo Bin :P and thanks for testing :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest vache Posted May 25, 2011 Report Share Posted May 25, 2011 Just try it on after flash 1.100.35. First time it booted i thunk soft-key was broken. With stock boot i have to press key a little bit below of it, with your boot, i have to press them a little bit above. I have to press the touchscreen in the same time. (my finger exceeds on it) The sensitive area seems to be less, but it looks like you find something interesting. Can you point me what file(s) you modify ?

Guest TechnoLover Posted May 26, 2011 Report Share Posted May 26, 2011 https://github.com/marcOcram/Acer-Liquid-MT...m/board-a4-ts.c starting at line 128 :P The theory is that the touchscreen don't stops after the normal screen, it goes below the soft keys. So the touchscreen is about 930px long. So after 800px you can change the value to whatever you want, you could also add a fifth key if you want but I've never tried this as I got no idea which key is usable there. Another idea could be, to replace the search-key with another key, such as skip-song or change brightness maybe :rolleyes: Now I try to change the battery percentage to 1%-steps <_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TechnoLover Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 1%-step battery works btw. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bozok Posted May 28, 2011 Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 (edited) I couldn't use your patch, but i have problems with soft keys from the purchase of the Liquid Metal, and it's the only problem i have. It seems that the sensibility is quite below the average, and sometimes to make the MT understand i want to go back, or i want to select the option menu, i have to scroll my thumb on the touch area, so that i find the right place where the Metal "understands" my intention. It would be nice to fix that in order to make our Metal as ready to touch as the other devices. Edited May 28, 2011 by bozok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest davidevinavil Posted May 28, 2011 Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 1%-step battery works btw. :rolleyes: Good work :P Could you share your modified source to have 1% step? Have you edit also framework-res.apk? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TechnoLover Posted May 28, 2011 Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 @davidevinavil look here: https://github.com/marcOcram/Acer-Liquid-MT-Kernel or https://github.com/marcOcram/Acer-Liquid-MT...commits/master/ and click on commit :P and I haven't changed framework-res.apk yet :rolleyes: gonna have a look later, first I have to do some other things first <_< when using source please credit (: @bozok That's the problem I have, too. Maybe I send my MT back to receive a new, the problem is that it's impossible to use the buttons just with the fingertip, you really have to roll your finger/thumb, that's really annoying. When the phone lies on the desk it's even more worse... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the phone lies on the desk it's even more worse... I don't know whether this can help, but the problem happens more often when battery is at 60-70% or less.. If the device is full charged, the response to touch is not perfect, but for sure better ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest davidevinavil Posted May 29, 2011 Report Share Posted May 29, 2011 (edited) Hi I was looking into your github and I found a little mistake into acpuclock-7x30.c at line 53 there is +#define PLL2_L_VAL_ADDR (MSM_CLK_CTL_BASE + 0x33) but right is +#define PLL2_L_VAL_ADDR (MSM_CLK_CTL_BASE + 0x33c) as written here https://github.com/coolbho3k/vision_oc_kern...cpuclock-7x30.c :D please look at static struct clkctl_acpu_speed acpu_freq_tbl and give me your opinion about that.. { 184320, PLL_3, 5, 4, 61440, 25, VDD_RAW(25) }, must be { 184320, PLL_3, 5, 3, 61440, 25, VDD_RAW(25) }, { 368640, PLL_3, 5, 1, 122800, 25, VDD_RAW(25) }, must be { 368640, PLL_3, 5, 1, 122880, 25, VDD_RAW(25) }, anyway congratulations for your work :D And thank for 1% battery step..

Guest TechnoLover Posted June 1, 2011 Report Share Posted June 1, 2011 { 184320, PLL_3, 5, 4, 61440, 25, VDD_RAW(25) }, must be { 184320, PLL_3, 5, 3, 61440, 25, VDD_RAW(25) }, why 3? { 368640, PLL_3, 5, 1, 122800, 25, VDD_RAW(25) }, must be { 368640, PLL_3, 5, 1, 122880, 25, VDD_RAW(25) }, this seems that it has to be changed :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest davidevinavil Posted June 1, 2011 Report Share Posted June 1, 2011 (edited) 737280 is pll3 frequency so: 737280/(1+1) → 368640 737280/(2+1) → 245760 737280/(3+1) → 184320 737280/(5+1) → 122880 I'm not so good in english to explain why but I think you can understand :D Edited June 1, 2011 by davidevinavil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Svarion Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 i've seen this commit https://github.com/marcOcram/Acer-Liquid-MT...fbf007a1#diff-0 in arch/arm/mach-msm/Kconfig seems that you've enabled 80hz refresh frequency...it's a workaround to remove fps limit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TechnoLover Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 not really =/ the fps are around ~38fps and the only positive is, that vsync is enabled, so there's no "tearing" (?). Negative aspect is that the battery drain seems higher =( So I have to search further but I don't give up :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
