Hi,
I'm using the latest Revolver ROM with a netformer 1.6 kernel (running @1504 MHz rock stable) and I appreciate this and its added features through the revolver app.
I still would like a feature that would *really* improve the tablet comfort (at least for fullscreen gaming) :
- Instead of having the "statusbar quick setting" option adding another dedicated menu allowing to hide/show the statusbar and to close this dedicated menu window, I wish to have directly in the "power menu" the ability to show/hide the statusbar menu (avoiding to open another menu window, to click on the right entry then to hide it...)
- Adding a "back" feature button in the power menu (since this will be the most used and missing one when you're hiding the statusbar).
=> That would allow the user to quit any app (game) and to get back to the "desktop" and use any shortcut he like to launch another game without having to : 1) show the statusbar again, 2) exit the app (with the back button), 3) launch the new game, 4) hide the statusbar again...
PS : I also have a Nook Color running latest CM nightly and they've added in the "power menu" those buttons, plus (but I think that must be genuine on this tablet since it includes a physical button allowing the statusbar to be back when pressed on) a direct statusbar icon to hide the statusbar. I don't know if that would be possible to get on this ROM but I really think that would rock, even more that the direct "hide/show statusbar" in the 'power menu'.
Sorry to post this here (I don't have the ten required posts to be able to post my request directly to the Revolver ROM thread) and for the bad english btw.
Great ROM anyway !
Cheers from France !
Id like more sound options . And I cant find the app for screen sesensitivity

Hi, thank you for answering my post. But where can i download the OpenGl plugin you are using?
I found this http://perso.numericable.fr/schtruck/libopenglplugin.so
But the screen goes black everytime i try to open a game.

That should be it, same link is available at the developers forums here: http://www.fpsece.net/forum2/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=2034
There are some instructions for using it there - for the Galaxy Note you need to run it without a BIOS specified (but check their forums there are a couple of other things worth knowing).
i give up
well I give up, Tried everything now, even changed from stock rom to another rom and changed kernel, but nothing help. The opengl file doesnt work with the mali gpu. (yes, tried without bios to).

Did you uninstall FPSe and reinstall it?
Not sure what the issue is affecting you, but it is definitely working with the Mali GPU - I have it running on my Note, and my Tab 7.7, and lots of Galaxy S II users confirm it at FPSe forums.
update to the latest version and wipe the application data
Ill try
I did update to the latest version, but havent clearing application data. Ill try it later today. Thank you both for info.
I cant get it working on my Note either. When I try to load an ISO, it just takes me back to the load bios screen. I tried everything in this thread.

Hi buddy! any chance you could help us out with a step by step tutorial? I've been playing my ff7 in fpse since pre-openGL.
when I heard of the opengl, I stopped and was hoping to play it in opengl mode.
thing is, I can't get it to work.
I have been reading schtruck's post but can't seem to make it work.
TRICK for MALI400 GPU!
you have alway to start with Tekken3 in HLE mode and then reach the Characters selection menu
after you can apply bios and load any game then save or load to switch bios in MISC menu load a bios by choosing file - say what?
Switch to HLE by pressing Back to the Bios loader everytime,
restart to apply without quitting or you'll have to restart the procedure.
Here's what I have:
libopenglplugin.so
Tekken 3
bios
FF7
FPSE ver .11.11
1.) I start by wiping data in FPSE in manage applications
2.) Tap FPSE .11.11
3.) I am greeted with a "do you want to load bios screen", I tap NO.
4.) Load Tekken3
5.) wait and load till character screen.
6.) Then what?
it says, I can now apply BIOS and load any game.. I press "menu" go to misc, load libopenglplugin.so, then I can't seem to load a new game without quitting... Can't find where to load the BIOS too, it mentioned go to system, but I only have 4 options in system - dual core boost, thread priority, boost mode, and autosave...
Been playing Tekken 3 with Open GL on the new update today, so still working fine for me.
Don't load a BIOS at all.
Will do a step by step guide for you guys in a few days since it seems to be causing headaches (incidentally some games may not work well with it, but Tekken 3 definitely does).
There is a more recent update for the openGL plugin too I think, I grabbed the one near the top of the news thread that has update information at fpsece.net

hi pips ^_^
so i bought fpse in the market, the latest version... then i downloaded
open gl that is posted here...but when i load open gl and play game ( specifically threads of fate ) it doesnt load at all...just black screen
but when i dont load the open gl ..it works but it is pixilated...
and i was wondering what do you mean by softmode ?
i am searching the internet but no dice..i dont know how to do it..
any guide pips thanks a lot
ill give u a walk through of what to do
THIS IS ASSUMING THAT YOU HAVE OPENGL PLUGIN LOADED ALREADY
- fire up fpse
-u will be greeted with SELECT ISO TO LOAD
- press on tekken 3
- then go into settings and select the misc option and press on the LOAD BIOS option
- press the back key this will enter you into the HLE mode
- Now press the menu key and quit the application
- these above steps should be done fast so as to avoid crashing of fpse
- if everything goes well and your fpse doesnt crash i.e stay on the black screen for more than 10 secs you should go back to your home screen
- now fire up fpse again
- you should get a message popup saying INSTRUCTIONS Bios is recommended blab blah...
- press on the no
- now you will get the Select ISO to load screen
-Press on tekken 3 again
now you should get a popup saying HLE mode activated
now press the start button and go into arcade mode
- you will observe that all the charecter tray is black
- activate any charecter you like to start the first round of the match
- now press the menu button to display the options go into misc and load the bios file scph1001 or something like that
- now press the menu button and press the eject button and then load the iso of your choice
then press restart
you should have your game running up with open gl plugin
and god it should be beautiful
p.s some games which worked previously without the plug in might stutter a bit with the plugin but it should not be a major problem

this might be a silly question but...is tekken necessary iso for this steps?
and after getting hle activated i still get black screen...maybe i didnt do it that fast?
and threads of fate can run w/o plug in ...although highly pixilated
or maybe threads of fate cant run with this plug in?
Yes tekken is absolutely necessary there is a bug in the fpse opengl plugin with the mali 400 on our devices and this is the only way around it as per the developer

Development help with smali & java source for long-press-recent-apps (NOT home) remap
Sorry to bother everyone with this thread but I was looking for some coding help and I'm not sure who has the relevant knowledge on this.
Over the last few days I've been looking in more detail into the remapping of recent apps to long-press-home mod as I wanted to figure out a way to remap recent apps to long-press-recent-apps instead of long-press-home, which would make more sense to me.
I've managed to decompile and part-convert to Java code the PhoneWindowManager class so I could make more sense of it and going thorough the code I've noticed that the remapping of recent apps to long-press-on-home is done by piggybacking on the existing method that handles the long-press-on-home. (Actually this is the way Google have designed it to work and not the way HTC have changed it.) While I was looking at that, I also noticed that the current mod also brakes the default action that is set in the stock HTC ROM - something to do with voice commands when plugged into a car dock?...
Anyway, the point is that there is no pre-defined method to handle long-press-recent-apps so this would have to be done from scratch. Now the problem is that I have no idea how this is done or if it is possible to define at all.
If anyone could help I would really appreciate it. Plus, I'm sure there are quite a few people out there who would like to have this functionality.
Thanks
+1.
I would go further, maybe set:
Long-press back > force close app
Long-press home > toggle keyboard
Long-press recent apps > recent apps
also, and I'm just curious, is there a way to toggle double-tap soft-keys? That would be sweet. ;-p
Sent from my HTC VLE_U using XDA
If we set functions to double tap, there would be a delay after we tapped every button before something happened, because it would have to wait to check if It's single or double tap. So I wouldn't recommend it
Sent from my HTC One S using XDA
Great call.
But what if you set it to a quick double-Tap? Like a 5ms delay?
Sent from my HTC VLE_U using XDA
Because humans can't tap twice in a 5ms internal lol. That is insane.

Just saying, if you can do a double-click with a mouse, you should be able to with your finger. ;-p
But I don't want to derail the goal of this post, I'd love to figure out the long press for stock odex rom. And the more we can understand, the more developers we have asking "how can we", and that's the whole goal, right?
Sent from my HTC VLE_U using XDA
Just thought I should mention that I do have quite a bit of experience in C++ and Java programming but I have no experience with the Android environment and that's where I need some help.
If someone could explain to me how the bits I'm interested in fit together in Android I'm sure I'd be able to do all the programming. The problem is that I don't have the time to read all the Android documentation and go through all the source code to get up to speed with all the relevant aspects so I would need some help to get a head start on it.
Also, in response to some of the requests:
- I don't think double tap is a good idea on keys that are expected to perform a single tap function which is unrelated to the double tap function. Basically, the way the singe click / double click works with the mouse is that the double click is an additional function to what the single click does so that the system can process the single click action straight away and then wait to see if a second click was performed in the relevant timeframe - i.e. a double click on an icon in order to start an aplication involves selecting the icon first and then launching the application the icon links to. If you look at it carefully you'll see that the action of a double click is actually made up of the action of a single click (i.e. select icon) plus an additional action which is performed once the second click is detected (i.e. launch application). So the only way you can implement a double tap on a button which also has a single tap assigned to it is if the second tap performs an action that is additional to the first tap. Otherwise, as Habarug already mentioned, we would introduce a lag as the system would have to wait for a given time to decide whether it was a single tap or a double tap and only then perform the relevant action. You may say that double taps are already implemented in Android but if you actually look at each and every situation where they are used you will see that they either fit the description I've given above or they are used in a situation where a single tap would not perform any action. The only exception is in the internet browser - i.e. a double tap performs a zoom-in / zoom-out, whereas if you single tap on a link it follows the link, which is an action unrelated to the double tap. However, if you look closely you will realize that this is actually handeled the same as explained with the single-click / double-click - i.e. if you try to double tap on a link you will see that the link actually gets selected but the browser does not follow the link and instead performs a zoom-in / zoom-out. So, how does this work then? Well, very simple, a lag is in fact intoduced on all single taps in the browser! Have you noticed how when you tap on a link the browser does not follow it straight away but instead just sits there doing nothing for a split second and then performs the action? If you don't believe me just try it yourself, you'll notice it. What the system does is that it performs the bit of the single tap action which is 'safe' to perform (i.e. select the link) but then it waits to see whether it was a single or a double tap before it performs the 'unsafe' part of the action (i.e. follow link or zoom-in / zoom-out). I say 'unsafe' because this bit of the action depends on what the user has actually done, i.e. single tap or double tap, so the system cannot go ahead and perform it until it knows for sure what the user actually wants, whereas the 'safe' action is something the system can perform regardless as it will not impact on what the user is doing as the 'unsafe' action would. So I guess the whole point is, do you want to have a lag on your capacitive buttons or not? My guess is that you don't want a lag on your buttons whereas in the internet browser a lag is assumed to be acceptable.
- implementing long-press actions on all capacitive buttons would be nice but we have to start somewhere so we need to set some targets, i.e. long press on recent apps for starters and then we can look at other things. Otherwise we risk loosing the plot.

Avoid task killers
It is best to avoid task killers such as Advanced Task Killer. Android is designed to automatically pre-load certain applications, even if you don't load them yourself. If it starts to run low on memory, it will smartly unload the oldest running apps automatically.
Manually killing tasks will only mean they get loaded in memory again. Task killers can make the phone slow, laggy, or drain battery life more quickly.
Bookmark a contact on your homescreen
To bookmark a contact on your homescreen, long press on the home screen background and select Shortcuts. Then select Direct dial.
If you call someone regularly this can be useful as you will have a shortcut to them handily placed on your homescreen
Bookmark a web page on your homescreen
To bookmark a website on your homescreen, go into your browser and find the bookmark of the page you want to create a shortcut for.
Then long press on the bookmark and select Add Shortcut to Home.
If you regularly visit certain websites, this can be handy as you will have a shortcut to the site on your homescreen.
Create folders to tidy your Apps
If you find yourself with too many Apps on the homescreen, then you can create folders to organise them.
To start, simply press and hold on an App and drag it over the top of another App. The App should change colour/shape. Then release your finger and the two Apps will be combined into a folder.
You can then drag more Apps into this folder using the same process.
To give your folder a label, simply long press on the folder and you will be able to enter a name.
Double tap for a full stop (period)
While typing emails or notes, you can simply tap the space key twice and the phone will insert a full stop / period
Install new keyboard to improve accuracy
The standard Android keyboard is good, but not great. There are many third party keyboards available which will improve your typing speed and accuracy.
Go to the Android Market and search for 'Keyboard' to see some great alternatives, many of which are more accurate and make typing much easier.
A good one is GoKeyboard.
If you see a warning saying the keyboard will collect all information (including credit cards) just ignore this. This is just a security feature that Android shows for every third-party keyboard that you install.
Accents and special characters
If you want to type non-English letters (eg those with an accent), long-press on the relevant letter. A list of options will appear for you to select.
Access the scientific calculator
To access the scientific calculator, rotate the phone to landscape mode.
The calculator will change to a scientific one
Add email or phone number from text
To add an email or phone number to your contacts from a text message, you can long-press on the email / phone number. Then select Add to contacts
Add widget to the homescreen
To add a widget, go to the homescreen and press the Apps icon (the circle with 6 dots). Then you will see a list of your Apps with the word Apps and Widgets at the top. Press Widgets, then you will be presented with a list of available widgets.
To add a widget, press and hold on it and then position it where you want
Android Easter egg
There is an Easter egg hidden in the Android operating system. To see it, go to your Homescreen, then press Menu - Settings - About phone.
Then tap on the Android version option 5 times and you will get a surprise.
Sometimes it doesn't work, so try a couple of times. By the way don't expect to see an actual Easter Egg. That is just the name given to things hidden inside software or operating systems.
Auto focus the camera
When taking photos or videos, tap the screen where you want to focus on. The phone will automatically adjust the settings to improve the image or video
Bring up more predicted words
If you have word prediction enabled while you are typing, you can long press the middle word that is suggested. This will bring up a menu allowing you to select various other suggested words.
Browse websites in full-screen mode
If you want to browse in full screen mode, without the URL bar at the top of the browser, then you can enable this..
Open the standard browser and press Menu - Settings - Labs. Then put a check mark under Full Screen .
To get access to the browser options (that are now invisible), there is now a neat hidden menu. Slide your finger in from the left or right of the screen. A circular menu will appear with various options.
Capture a still shot while recording video
To capture a still shot while recording a video, simply tap the screen while you are recording.
This will save a still image.
Change keyboards
To change keyboards (if you have additional keyboards installed), you can switch between them by pressing the small keyboard symbol in the top left of your screen. You will need to be in keyboard input mode (i.e. typing something) for this to work.
Note: you need to have more than one keyboard installed for this to work
Change quick response texts
The phone has the ability to send quick response text messages if your phone is ringing but you can't answer it.
To change these, go to your Dialer App - Settings - Quick responses. You can only have 4 of them and you may need to edit existing ones.
Change the backlight screen timeout
To change the backlight screen timeout, go to Settings - Display - Screen. Then choose the screen time out duration.
You can also tell the phone screen to always stay lit when it is plugged in via USB. Go to Settings - Developer Options. Then check Stay Awake.
Change the screen brightness
To change the screen brightness, start from the Homescreen and press Menu - Settings - Display - Brightness.
Then choose the desired brightness setting. You can also select Automatic brightness to let the phone decide for you.
If you have auto-brightness enabled, you can also press, hold and slide the top notification bar left and right. The brightness will increase and decrease accordingly.
Check phone status and battery usage
To find out information about Signal Strength, Network Information, Remaining Battery Time and Battery Usage (by Application), go to your Homescreen - Menu - Settings - About Phone.
Check the firmware version
To check your firmware version, start from the Homescreen and press Menu - Settings - About Phone- software version
This should list your Android version, Build number and Model Number.
Copy files between your phone and PC using WiFi
To copy files between your phone and PC, go to the Android Play Market and download an app called AirDroid.
This is an extremely useful App that connects your phone to your PC wirelessly, allowing you to move files and many, many other things.
Copying iTunes songs to Android
If you have decided to ditch your iPhone in favour of Android, then there is a simple way to take your iTunes music, playlists and album art with you.
Simply go the Android Marketplace and download a Free App called Easy Phone Tunes. You will also need the computer version of the software, so go to http://easyphonetunes.com and download it from there.
Then, when that is done, turn your phone into a USB storage device (this will vary from device to device, but instructions are on the website).
Once your phone is connected to your computer, open the computer version of the software and select your device from the Easy Phone Tunes list. Then follow the instructions to Sync your media
Create folders in your Quick Launch bar
If you have used up all of your Quick Launch spaces, then there is a trick.
Once it is full, press and drag an App from the homescreen and move it over the top of an App in the Quick Launch area. Then release your finger. This will create a folder containing the original App plus the new one. This is a great way to have access to regularly used App
Create shortcut to websites on your home screen
To create a shortcut to a website on your homescreen, go to your browser bookmarks.
Then long press on a site and select Add shortcut to Home
Customise your favourites tray
At the bottom of each homescreen is your favourites tray, which consists of 5 icons. You can customise it by adding icons to the tray. If it's full however, you will first need to remove some.
To remove an icon, simply press and hold an icon. Then drag it to your desktop.
Then to add a new one, simply drag an icon from your homescreen to the favourites tray.
Enable / disable vibrate / haptic feedback when you type
To disable / enable vibrate (also called haptic feedback) when you type or press the screen, go to Settings - Language & input - Settings.
Then uncheck Vibrate on keypress.
Enable sideload of Apps
If you want to install Apps outside of the Android Market (called sideloading), then go to Settings - Security - Unknown sources.
Note: use at your own risk.
Help, I have forgotten my unlock pattern
If you have forgotten your custom unlock pattern, then don't panic.
After 5 unsuccessful tries a button should appear saying 'Forgot pattern'. Press this and you will be asked to enter your Gmail username/password.
The phone will then ask for a new unlock pattern. If you don't have a Gmail account, then you might have to either call your carrier or factory reset your phone.
Hide folders or files
If you want to hide folders or files from being index or displayed, simple put a . (full stop / period) before the file or folder name.
Make volume / music louder
WARNING: Making your volume or music louder can damage your hearing.
Most phones have their volumes limited by local laws to protect our hearing. There is a way to boost your volume however. Go to the Android Market and download an App called Volume+ (Sound Boost). There is also a free version called Volume+ Free.
You will need to root your phone for this App to work.
Make your phone run faster
Here are the top 5 tips to make your phone run faster:
1) Use only essential widgets on your homescreen - each widget consumes memory and processing power which can slow your down your phone.
2) Uninstall apps that you don't use - after awhile your phone can get cluttered as some Apps are designed to always run in the background. If you rarely use an App, then uninstall it to free up memory and CPU resource.
3) Install Apps to your phone memory - if you have an SDCard, always install Apps to the phone memory, which can be accessed faster. If you have Apps on the SDCard, then move them back to the phone memory with an App called Move2SD available from the Play Market.
4) Use Static rather than Live wallpapers - Live wallpapers consume processing power and memory. Unless you really must have them, uninstall them.
5) Kill tasks occasionally - Some Apps will run in the background indefinitely unless you kill them. Most of them won't cause a problem, but it pays to check your running tasks from time to time. Hold down your Home key and check the Task Manager.
One last thing: Don't use Task Killers. Android manages tasks very well and Task Killers just make your phone unstable and can slow it down further
note this guide is mainy to help the people who didnt recieved a manual instructions booklet along with their phone like my country(INDIA)

Wow thanks! Im gonna uninstall my task killer now.
Good job! Some of this are well known but many aren't so it should be sticky subject for all who are coming into Android from wherever hey are coming.
The taskkiller part should be put in red
Another one: manage your contacts in gmail. It is bscked up accesible from anywhere and so convenient. Much easier to edit from the computer after all.

Hi,
any idea how to get Lecture Notes -app working under cromi-x? It's a notes taking app that allows you to draw on screen. I can see the line get's drawn while I move my finger on screen, but when I raise my finger the line disappears.
I believe the app writes to some display buffer while I draw, and when I raise the finger it writes the drawing into some other display memory buffer. Now this other buffer does not get drawn to screen. It is likely some chromi-x optimization that breaks this now. Any idea which, and how to get this working again? I recall it asked something about screen optimization while installing chromi-x, but how to disable that now that it's installed?
There is free trial version of Lecture Notes if any of you are kind enough to check this.

I have the paid version and it works fine under CROMi-X 5.4 and _that's V8 kernel. Not using rom2sd or data2sd, just "stock" flash install.
Should just work fine - I use note anytime or anywhere. Does it do it in any other app?
Nope, only the lecture notes so far. I also have the kernel that came with the cromi-x 5.3. I will try the upgrade once I get it downloaded. I'm on travel, and the download just doesn't succeed now. Tomorrow...

Finally at home and I got the latest 5.4 cromi-x rom downloaded. I installed it with dpi 213 selected. I didn't select the force use of GPU -option. Still the same, the lecture notes drawing doesn't appear.
I know the app draws, since I see the lines momentarily if I select an area to be cut. But then the drawing disappears again. I have cleaned the temp files and data from lecture notes. No help.
Any ideas?

I use the 240 DPI option - one possible difference.
Oops, I take it back, it works now! I had left the "force GPU rendering" on afterall during my last nights debugs. That removed ot works now with the latest 5.4 version. Yay \o/
Thanks guys for your encouragement that I got to know it's possible to get it working!
