I think the reason why Voodoo was much more power saving is because it has this screen tweak, which makes the brightness much lower than the stock brightness setting.

I guess I'm gonna miss that.

Anyway, gonna try lagfix now. No lagfix, just don't feel too good. biggrin.gif

EDIT: Feel like doing Voodoo lagfix instead, since I heard someone said there's a /system mount with ext4. biggrin.gif

Do u guys encounter this?
While using Sypwe keyboard, after I type the first letter (which will be in capital letter), then the 2nd letter will remain as Capital, unless I manually change it back to small letter...weird
*
If you start swiping the first letter and went up, off the keyboard, made a circle and then continue with the rest of the letters, your word will be in all caps.

Did you happen to do the top part circle thing?

I just flashed to Doc's XXJPO v9 lately.
I noticed that while I'm surfing using 3G, the battery feels like it is getting hot very fast, especially if I'm using it while charging.
Should I be worried?
Is it normal?
*
Likewise on my phone. I guess it's normal, cause it's draining battery.

Just did a Quadrant on my K10C + ext4 all
Scored a 1619, though 3D rendering still seems slower than on Eclair.

Hopefully by the time we get Gingerbread (way over X'mas already biggrin.gif), it would be very optimized for our processor, seeing that Google is using Samsung's phone as next flagship. smile.gif

Added on December 3, 2010, 9:31 amI mounted r/w on Root Explorer, but when I wana copy files or move them into system, it says there's not enough space. There's still 69mb though. Any idea??

Use ADB or Terminal Emulator.

Root Explorer is stupid, can't mount /system as r/w one.

Well, iOS4 is only against iPhone4, and iPad.

Android is against the whole world's worth of hardware. I won't blame them if they don't have 3D accelerated UI in the meantime. biggrin.gif

Yes and not. There are various different answers floating in the net.

It's a risk you might have to take if you are buying the phone.

Now, move along. biggrin.gif

Guys, good read here.
http://smartphonebenchmarks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=85
“Its GPU appears to be a bit weak based on the first impression. Samsung’s Hummingbird GPU might still have an edge here. So if 3D games is all you do on your phones, Galaxy S may work out better for you.

So until other Cortex A9 based processors arrive to the scene by Samsung, Qualcomm and Texas Instrument, this might have the fastest solution.”

The SGX540 is fast, but PowerVR is notorious on rendering alpha channel. Now I finally tasted it. doh.gif

Oh really? How do you test alpha blending? I am not sure under what condition it renders the most.

Download the game "Fruits Ninja Kaka". There's this Bomb Mode where certain fruits get a glow around them. You'll see the problem then.

If you still don't see it, try comparing it against another phone (not 1 with PowerVR). I compared it against HTC Desire's. Desire's rendering is fine, no flickering on alpha channel textures.

I think you have to reflash Voodoo to reenable back.

Tried that, it's great!
But there are claims that if you Chrome2phonr a map link, it will open the original Maps rather than Brut Maps.

Ahh I see. I just updated that app. Yeah, I see the white light was choppy but in previous version, there is a pop up saying "your phone is samsung galaxy S there might be some graphic issues, continue?" Most probably it's the game's incompatibility towards the phone rather than the phone.
*
It's the graphics chips and the shortfall of the rendering algorithm (deferred rendering) of PowerVR.

Back then (10 years+ ago), there were heated battles of the 3D cards and PowerVR was 1 of the great contender. With a slower processor, claiming to have equal, if not better, performance than the market leader, 3Dfx's Voodoo (sounds familiar?).

After you get to understand how PowerVR renders a scene, you'll understand why it has this "bug", or shortfall.
