Guest Latoc Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 Reflash google-bits and it works just fine. It likely means there's some issue with the scripts that I will have to fix. Ok I'll try that. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kieranc Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 I've just checked some files in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ # cat cpuinfo_min_freq 19200 # cat cpuinfo_max_freq 528000 # cat scaling_min_freq 528000 # cat scaling_max_freq 528000 Does that not indicate the lowest speed it'll scale to is the same as the highest, 528MHz? It doesn't change when I try echo a new value to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't change when I try echo a new value to it. That's because HTC has enabled a perflock. Those values change when the device is 'sleeping' to allow it to scale lower. This is why building a custom kernel is a good ting, something we're working on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Latoc Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 I can confirm that reflashing googlebits works just fine for fixing contacts syncing. Back to r3 and its 5 home screens. Now I can go back to the market to download some more apps... By the way, this rom is the best of all, perfect in every way, I even like taking pictures at 2 MP, gives them a polaroid look that is perfect to capture some little slices of life in style. Jnwhiteh, I like your way of thinking, pure AOSP, no crap added !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like crap too, but as a computer scientist I'm more interested in understanding how stuff works rather than just tossing it all together to make the latest 'ZOMG ROM'. Most importantly, my work is re-usable, the stuff from 'ZOMG ROMs' isn't =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any ETA on a kernel? Any testing needed or anything else I can do? edit: led works right, thanks! Edited January 24, 2010 by kieranc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jnwhiteh Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 what about these overclocking apps in the market, they seem able to change the sleep/wake frequencies. They don't work on HTC Hero without a custom kernel. Any ETA on a kernel? Any testing needed or anything else I can do? Not really, HTC hasn't released one and they don't have a requirement to until they ship a HTC Hero ROM with a 2.6.29 kernel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So do we still need to rely on HTC for a kernel despite using AOSP for the rest of it? What about the Teknologist kernel, any way it can be used/made to work/etc?

Guest kieranc Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 It can, at the expense of graphics acceleration and OpenGL. Ah ok, so would the Teknologist kernel work as it is on this ROM, just without OpenGL? Would bluetooth audio and CPU scaling work? Presumably that's be roughly the same place I'd end up by compiling the 2.6.29 sources from HTC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd have compcache, and his CPU scaling.. but his scaling is also tweaked for performance rather than batter consumption. And no, the source from HTC would give us everything working, full stop, and the ability to customize it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest jnwhiteh Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 couldt you find out why the guy have a working 5 mpix camera on 2.1 ??? Why did you respond and quote that response to ask an unrelated question. Please don't do that, it gets very confusing. I don't need to ask him why he has a working 5 MP camera. He's using a leaked HTC build which uses an altered android core, and includes a number of extra HTC frameworks. They will never be included in an AOSP build.. at most I would re-implement only the specific portions that are necessary, but I don't have time for that right now. That's a Sense UI ROM. This is AOSP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But.. the Hero kernel sources are here: http://developer.htc.com/ Is that 2.6.27 rather than .29? I'm guessing I could change the scaling_governor to ondemand on Teknologist but at least it would scale, its a start.

Guest pillock Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 Re Network Location (I'm sorry to keep banging on about this!) I've installed r2 this morning and was chuffed to bits to see NetworkLocation working.... however, it's a bit inaccurate for me! It has me about half a mile down the road - this is with WiFi and GPS both OFF, so purely cell location. MCR3.2 has me perfectly positioned, within the accuracy bounds of CID locating. This bizarrely seems to miss me - not by much, but enough to throw Locale out. I'm just about to put r3 on and see if it's changed (I want to for the LED update anyway), but I can't honestly think of anything in a ROM which would just throw Cell Location out by a teensy little amount.

It may be detecting you based on your neighboring CIDs rather than your current CID. Not much that can be changed re that, however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kieranc Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 Those are the 2.6.27 sources.

Any ideas? No, after the first report of that I did precisely that and got absolutely no errors, so without more information I am not quite sure what to tell you. Are you installing the latest GoogleBits? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
