[idea] an idea for special android mode [/idea] - Android General

Well I have an idea ,
don't know it has some potential or not
not sure how to implement...
Main problem with this super awesome smartphones are the battery..
I would like to make simple super saver os mode in which only basic functionality will work..
only radio,sms
yes no internet ,less graphics...may be I will cal it as Real phone mode..
because only normal mobile function like calling , receiving call ,receiving and sending text is allowed..
this wont be like another battery saver app..
Its whole os or mode of os with bare minimum requirement..
People will say wats use awesome hardware and functionaluty we got in here..
Accepted..!
This mode will be user requested and easily switchable ..
specially when you going for bed or realy have to preserve battery u just enable this mode..
you will be running ur mobile like a basic symbian phone eg.nokia 1100 with least graphic things and very very less power and shall go for at least week with that mode enable or half a week with combination of real phone mode and smartphone mode

Good idea,and I think you have to compile a Android framework ,a special one only provide API about sms and call,and,it's also a hard thing……

Wish: Interactive phone feature test before you buy

Hi ... I called this Wish: cause its more of a Oh this would be cool kind of thing, plus I thought general would be an okay place to post this.
I wish there was a website or app you could download where u could interact with the type of phone u wanted.
So like I have a wizard ... I would be able to point to start phones look at the settings look @ all the types of wifi settings etc. Not talking about an emulator but more of some thing like a look @ all whats cool before you buy so like if the screen had a touched screen you could use your mouse to click on things while if it did not have a touch screen you would keep clicking the buttons
I dont know its just an idea ...while I am wishing I wish some of the people who develop these phones (cough HTC/hp etc) would have something like this on their website....I know u can look @ 360 degree views of models but why not have interactive models ?

Two questions in one piece for S5600

First question : Is there any accelerometer bublle level like the incredible android one for Jave J2M Samsung S5600 (Player Star) phone ? Or anyway, is there any solution to port this app from adroid to java Mobile ? I got the source jar if anyone is interested to have a look inside. It does not lauch on my mobile, certainly due to protection and very different Android OS...
Second question :
I would like to find a way for overriding the Exe/jave/games/folder to point it to my mmc sdcard ? Is there a way to do it via nv_default.ini without bricking the phone ? A better solution would be to offer both databse update search and and thos two path in ?!
I'm really not familliar with this phone OS, so if there anyone who can tell me if this system is modifiable or modable, just let me know...
Free Bonus Question : I also have a nice HTC touch P3450, wich has been succesfully updated to the latest avaible firmware. I dont know if this phone have an accelerometer ? Can anyone tell it to me ? I don't think so because none of the apps are hanging this feature, but i'm asking it also

[Reqiest] Could someone port Blender to Android PLEASE ???

Hello,
I have been using Blender on Windows Mobile since 2008. It was a very hard task because my screen was 2.8" only.
Now I bought an Android phone with a screen nearly twice bigger and I immediately thought of Blender. BUT... I have
literally scratched out the internet and Blender for Android seems to not exist at all :-/
I know that there are brilliant programmers here... Could somebody eventually try to port that nice program to
Android? For experts like you, it shouldn't be that hard...
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE !!!
What useful stuff could you possibly do in Blender on a mobile device? 10" tablet... Maybe... but input is still wonky for such a thing..
If you want a 3D physics game, there are tons of them in the market...
Hi and thanks for the answer.
No, I don't want a game, I want something, on which I could do at least basic 3D modelling / animation.
And if it exists for Windows Mobile I see totally no reason that this multiplatform product won't exist for
Android too...
Look for an app called Sketcher 3D in the Play Store.
Sent from my 5" Retina XT iPhone running iOS 7
There is an official porting. You can just see .blend and start blender game for now, but it's still a working in progress anyway...
Install guide
Main thread on blenderartists.org
An image of the working in progress blender player
Have a look at true truesculpt on playstore
It's pretty cool but a complete blender port will be much better

Guys, YOU ROCK !!
I will give a try to these 2 apps FOR SURE!! I was searching SO HARD and I could not find even
a single app like those!!
What is Blenderplayer? To me it sounds something that can just play files, created with Blender?

great news!
A new image of the porting it's been linked in the developer meeting notes of today.
it has the full interface!:laugh:
Anyway the blenderplayer is the binary that can open games made with blender.
http://pasteall.org/pic/show.php?id=36691
so cool
EDIT:
a new photo of a nexus 7 running blender
a tried the new release with the test file and some of my models. http://download.blender.org/ftp/incoming/Blender_08_19_12.apk
it works but with a 4.3 inch is totally unusable.
Anyway it's pretty weird to see blender on a phone
OK, I have tried both apps:
- Sketch 3D - VERY nice interface, I like the touch approach!! A brilliant idea. But it is STILL very basic :-/
You can't change properties of the objects (for example a prism has always 3 sides :-/ etc.
No animation functions, no texturing, no materials, no light sources, just some colors of the objects, which are
not realistic, no rendering function :-/
A Blender port would ROCK !!
@lbrfabio - why it should be strange to see Blender on a Phone? I had it on my HTC Diamond in 2008!! You
should see it on the 2.8" screen!! And still it was somehow possible to hit the menu entries and I played a lot
with it!! And I was thinking at that time, if my screen would be twice bigger, it would be perfect !! Now I have
almost a double size screen and no Blender for it :-/
And EVEN, if not on a phone, on a tablet it would be perfect

What I was trying to say is that use fingers to use Blender it's weird after you're used to use keyboard and mouse with a dual monitor.
Weird but still cool
Sure that it's weird and cool at the same time. But the world is changing with all these smartphones and tablets and
the developers have to undergo this change for their apps too! And exactly people like us, on these forums, have to
push them in the direction of improvement and show them, that we won't tolerate worse and less capable software,
than we already have on a PC. THIS is the reason, why I have a netbook and not a tablet!!!
And even, if we stay at the same level. there is no improvement! The Android software has to become BETTER than
what we are currently witnessing on a PC !!!

The "Complete" sensation rom

Brown=Test Done
Green=Good
Red=Bad
Blue=Not really Important
Hi Guys!!! :victory:
Even if it seems I’m a New User, I’ve been reading on your website for very Long time and I gained a LOT of experience with android phones thanks to you GENIUS DEVELOPERS and I’m sure I can share my experiences in this forum to help as well as been helped!!
Now, after days and days of research, tests and missed sleep hours, :silly: with Proper ROM, Kernel and Accessories I “ALMOST REACH” my final dream Phone thanks to you guys!
Wait, I’ll explain...
Basically my Girlfriend has the Samsung Galaxy S3 and I have my HTC Sensation XE...and the S3 is one of the most "complete" phone I’ve ever seen! It does EVERYTHING I’ve always wanted from my phone....by “Stock”!!!!
Now, I’m SURE you can understand me guys...I saw what an Android phone can do and I KNOW my sensation XE has the potentiality to do MUCH MORE that the limits that HTC put on his stock ROM without modify any hardware so it can become as powerful and complete as, let’s say, a mini-S3!
This is become my challenge, my goal (and MY OBSESSION! ) and after AGES...I ALMOST reached it....I’m very Close and I need your help and I’ll offer mine as well to make the “FINAL SENSATION ROM”!!
Now, after this LONG and BORING introduction:
What I want from my Sensation XE is basically the most “Complete” phone possible:
1- OTG USB “Fully Working”
2- Bluetooth drivers compatibles with applications like Sixaxis to connect the PS3 controllers
3- Keep a “Fully Working” MHL-HDMI
4- Keep a “Fully working Beats” and the compatibility with the mic and the play\pause\next\prev buttons integrated on the Beats cable for Sensation XE
5- Increase volume Loud-Speakers
6- Improve Battery
7- Improve Camera
8- Improve performance and boot time
9- Various personalization
And now I’ll share all my experiences:
--I first Fully rooted my phone
--Flashed PG58IMG.zip with Firmware 3.33.401.6 for ICS ROMs (HBOOT-1.29, Radio 11.24A, 4Ext 1.0.0.5-RC9, ADSP) ALL IN ONE!!
--Tried the first ROM:
Sense-o-Maniac - Sense4.1 v1.2.0
1- OTG USB not working
2- Bluetooth drivers NOT compatibles with applications like Sixaxis to connect the PS3 controllers
3- MHL-HDMI video-out not working (only audio and black screen)
4- “Fully working Beats”
5- Better volume Loud-Speakers
6- SUPER Improved Battery
7- Improved Camera
8- Improved performance and boot-time
9- Few personalization and tweaks
--Then I added the “Overclocked_kernel_v1.5.2_by_SebastianFM” to the ROM and magically I had:
Sense-o-Maniac - Sense4.1 v1.2.0 + Overclocked_kernel_v1.5.2_by_SebastianFM
1- OTG USB working 90%; keyboard, mouses and even cabled PS3 controller perfectly working BUT to Mount Hard drives and pen drives it was necessary the app “USB\OTG HELPER” and to mount another sensation as USB-Disk-Drive it was necessary the app “USB Host Controller”. No “system support” so no auto-mount hard drives, USB-Storage not listed on “settings\storage\” after the “Internal Storage” and the “SD Storage” and no media-scan of the USB-Storage’s content in the gallery (No images from USB device appear in gallery, no songs in music, etc)
2- From 2 to 9 pretty much the same.
--then I discover the GENIUS KERNEL “PYD-X - 3.8.1 beta – ViperS” and another point of my list was working:
Sense-o-Maniac - Sense4.1 v1.2.0 + “PYD-X - 3.8.1 beta – ViperS” kernel
1- OTG USB working 90%; Everything like the Overclocked_kernel_v1.5.2_by_SebastianFM plus the tests done with the “Sixaxis controller” app and the “PS3 PairingTool” which don’t “sense” the PS3 controller via OTG (even if buttons and sticks works around the menus) and keep asking to insert the controller via USB to change the PS3 Controller Bluetooth MAC-Address
2- Bluetooth drivers COMPATIBLE with applications like Sixaxis Controller (v0.5.7 only) to connect the PS3 controllers (after change the controller’s Bluetooth MAC-Address by PC) but it cause the WiFi to stop working until the reboot
3- From 3 to 9 pretty much the same.
--Then I decided to try other ROM:
Elegancia-Sense4.1-v3.2.0
having EXACTLY the same results.
--and keep trying and trying I suddently had MUCH better results with:
“ViperS_1.6.2” ROM + “PYD-X - 3.8.1 beta – ViperS” kernel
1- OTG USB working 90%exactly like in the 2 previous ROM
2- Bluetooth drivers COMPATIBLE with Issues exactly like in the 2 previous ROM
3- MHL-HDMI --working-- PERFECTLY!! (after turn it on in the Venom Tweaks Misc Menu)
4- Fully Working Beats like previous 2 ROMs
5- MUCH Better volume Loud-Speakers(The Best!)
7- Slightly less Improved Battery than the other 2 ROMs
6- Same Improved Camera
8- Improved performance and boot-time
9- LOADS and LOADS of personalization, tweaks and BEAUTIFUL ANIMATIONS of the menus
--so at this point I was quiet satisfied of the results but I wanted to fix that problem with the Compatible Bluetooth drivers and the WiFi so I tried the last test version of Pacha’s Kernel
“PYD-X 4.1.9 + kernel reset (non-bootloop)”
But somehow it broke the MHL-HDMI even on ViperS ROM
so I went back to the 3.8.1 version and changed ROM to the Rock Solid
Android_Revolution_HD-Sensation_6.8.0_XE + “PYD-X - 3.8.1 beta – ARHD” Kernel:
1- OTG USB working 90% exactly like all previous ROM
2- Bluetooth drivers Sixaxis-COMPATIBLE with NO ISSUE AT ALL!! Wifi and Sixaxis worked perfectly at the same time!
3- MHL-HDMI --working—PERFECTLY!!!
4- Fully Working Beats like previous 3 ROMs
5- Same Loud-Speakers volume as stock
6- VERY Improved Battery
7- No much Improved Camera (I hate the sensation stock camera!!)
8- Improved performance and boot-time
9- Almost no personalizations at all so a little too “STOCK-Look”
--so at this point I was VERY happy but I decided to try anyway few AOSP ROM without sense and the tempting JellyBean:
CyanogenMod-10-20130109-bruce2728-pyramid,
OpenSensation2-20121210-pyramid
And the best of the 3 AOSP in EVERYTHING I tested:
AOKP_pyramid_unofficial_Jan-20-13
1- OTG USB working 100%!! The System recognized and mounted instantaneously (without any app) all USB-Drive I tested and all the media in the USB magically appeared in Gallery and Music. “USB Storage” was now listed in “Setting\Storage” and it perfectly “sensed” and paired the PS3 Controller without the any PC’s Help.
2- Bluetooth drivers Sixaxis works quick and FLAWLESS without any issue already at “Method 1” of the Sixaxis controller app
3- MHL-HDMI sound ok but the video out is full of issues and instable
4- Workaround for the beats that seems to bring the good enchanted beats sound but loses somehow the compatibility with all the buttons (play\pause\next\prev) integrated on the cable
5- Improved volume Loud-Speakers
6- Improved Battery
7- Improved Camera (I personally still prefer the VenomS’ Camera)
8- SUPER Improved performance and boot-time!! The phone is SUPER SMOOTH, it boots in HALF TIME of other ROMS!!
9- LOADS of personalizations and a general sensation of smoothness and pleasure for the eyes with all the animations
CONCLUSIONS:
I thank you very much all who had the patience to read this until the end, I say sorry for my English and if I said something stupid feel free to correct me and PLEASE guys (since I'm NOT allow yet to write in Development session), make sure Venom Team, ARHD Team, AOKP Team, xXxPachaXxX, SebastianFM and Every Sensation Developer (sorry if I don't Name ALL of you :angel: ) read this so they may see which are the good and bad points of them ROMs, collaborate and make the best Complete ULTIMATE SENSATION ROM!!
I will help as much as I can with Donation and to test on my phone, Just let me know which Log you need and I’ll Post!
Ps.
Love you Guys!! :good:

If your posts are going to say something like "Why my phone not work?!

Hello elvisypi!
if you can, PLEASE feel free to move or tell to move my thread in a better place...:fingers-crossed:
I didn't want to post it in Q&A because the goal of this thread it was to give to ROMs and Kernels' developers some Ideas of what is great and what is missed in them work but I still don't have rights to write in other threads and in here it's quite useless...
I don't think any of the developers I mentioned (or not) do even know yet of this thread existence...:crying:

On that note, don't worry about devs not knowing what's good and bad about their roms.
Presidential candidates aren't as scrutinized as a new rom on XDA.
If something doesn't work on a new rom, the dev will hear about 25 times in the first hour, then another 30 times after he corrects the problem and posts a new bug free build. And then some idiot will show up 3 weeks later without searching the thread and ask why he's getting that bug even though he hasn't updated his rom to any of the 20 newer builds since the bug was fixed.
Pick any rom development thread...at random...read the whole whole thing, and you will see this pattern repeat itself over and over and over. Try not to get too annoyed by it...but it's hard to remain calm sometimes.
So while your guide is great for other users trying to pick which ROM is the best one for their needs, you're not telling developers anything they don't already know. It's great information, but it's other users who will benefit from it.
You have really done a good work n I feel u have seriously searched a lot and made a systematic thread this vll surely help newbees to select roms n get some knowledge......
If I have helped you hit the thanx button

Skipjacks thank you for your replies, they are always constructive!
Believe me I read few >>FULL<< threads and I know EXACTLY what are you talking about...sometime it’s just FRUSTRATING!!!
I’m VERY happy to help other users but the reason I would like some of the developers to read this thread as well, is because it’s not a “this doesn’t work, please fix it”-thread, but more like “this doesn’t work here but it DOES WORK in there but there doesn’t work this but it WORKS in here”-thread, so the Genius Developers can help each-other “fusing” all the working features and make the “Complete-Sensation”
I also would like them to know that I'm offering my help as a tester since I have a spare sensation, OTG Cables (powered and not powered) and MHL cable and I think they may need “Hamsters” like me to try on their new betas!
Anyway I guess I will just wait until I’m allowed to write in developers thread and place a link to this thread, all I want is to be helpful! :fingers-crossed:
