This is just going to be a thread about Chainfire 3D.
I haven't seen a thread on this yet nor have i actually tried it on the device. So if someone can confirm it works we can start letting each other know the best settings and what not.
Nevermind everyone don't think it will work since it did not support honeycomb most likely wont support ICS
well get installing on your prime then & let us know

this is not going to work actually no support for ICS so maybe in the future. Should have read the chainfire thread before posting this one!
I installed it and all the plugins, although I can't tell if it's working or not
Wait you were able to install everything without bootlooping?
Tegra3 doesn't need it. Chainfire for lowerend devices really. Or devices that want to run tegra2 games that don't have the chip.

I'm wondering what does enable/disable 3D scaling in Vipercontrol mod does
If its off or on by default on the Prime.
Maybe control/throttle the working frequency of the GPU?
I'm just guessing here...
Oh and one thing I would be interested in, is to activate 16xMSAA with my Prime in Chainfire3D ... in my SGS2 it makes a world of difference, quality wise!!!!
EDIT
Tried it, installed fine beta EGL driver, program ran but it says that our chip doesnt support 16xMSAA (option greyed out)... so for now it turned out to be useless to my needs, so uninstalled it.
Hope this info helps!
I was reading this article http://bit.ly/o1fK41 and this user was able to play games on his phone with his PS3 controller.
I downloaded the Sixaxis Compatibility Checker to see if the Rezound was compatible or not. I tried a few times, doesn't seem the Rezound is one of them, maybe I did something wrong, but I don't think I did. I'm thinking it has something to do with Sense? Hopefully once we have a working ICS ROM, I can try this particular app again.
Until then I was wondering if anyone knows of an alternative application or way around this? I was going to try and do with my Kindle Fire, but I forgot my KF doesn't have BT. I've downloaded a bunch of PSX games, would love to play them.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks guys!
I second that, can't wait to use my ps3 controller with modern combat 3....I used to use my ps3 controller with my Evo, I'm guessing it only works with AOSP Roms?

Important - Due to the non-standard protocol that the controllers use to communicate with the host, this application requires root access. Additionally, it is incompatible with most HTC devices and some newer Samsung devices. This is due to the required bluetooth protocol not being implemented on these devices. We are actively looking into a work around, but currently the only solution is to install a custom firmware, such as Cyanogenmod, that supports the required protocols.

I used this all the time on my Bionic for SNES ROMs and it is one of the main reasons I am waiting for an AOSP ROM. As for other solutions, I haven't found any yet.
It looks like ics is the only way to get it to work on the rezzy. Hopefully it isn't to much longer until we see 4.0.3.
Until then maybe I can use my PS3 controller on my PC? I've been trying to figure out how to play my PSX roms on Win7, having a really hard time trying to figure out how to use this emulator, having a lot of problems! hmmm...

Nah, doesn't seem to work with ICS... well the ICS RC with cleanROM at least. I just tried today.
It's probably the same reason why Wii controller stuff doesn't work on Sense ROMs. I'm not even going to pretend like I fully understand it, but the tl;dr version is that Sense doesn't have a bluetooth stack that is compatible with the controllers, but AOSP does. And no, there's not a way to get it to work with Sense at this point in time.
It has to set up when compiling the kernel.

Got it running on my PC, laptop, and netbook. Shoot me a PM if you need a hand, but i've used ePSXe, PCSX2, Dolphin, all using DS3 Tool for the PS3 controller. Initial setup can be a pain, their docs and wikis are great helps.

It has to do with the bluetooth stack that HTC chose to insert in their ROM vs the bluetooth stack that comes with AOSP Android. We had the same problem on the Galaxy S. Samsung used a different bluetooth stack in their touchwiz UI. Until HTC and Samsung use a bluetooth stack that has the right protocol it wont work.
Has nothing to do with the kernel.

Is it really necessary to act like a child when someone clears up a question? His post was right. Yours was wrong. Accept it graciously and grow up. The Rezound forum is feeling like a daycare because of exactly this kind of BS.
Look buddy I don't mind I was wrong. I also don't mind being corrected. But just don't be an ass about it. So whatever I gave him a light tap. Thanks for being the android police the community really needs you.

It is not JUST the bluetooth stack, if it were, you could just replace the bluetooth stack from AOSP into a rom that it doesnt work in (sense, touchwiz), but it does not work. Sense itself disables many of the protocols for non-standard bluetooth types, why ill never know. They fixed it on i believe the sensation or something by making a custom kernel and now they can use the Wii remote in sense. Its nowhere simple in anyway. Of course, if we had AOSP, it would work out of the box and no hassle involved.
Because we can still boot into WebOS. I started thinking about all the folks complaining about what doesn't work on their Touchpad, and thought about someone who comes to the forums and might be afraid to flash because they'll lose the camera, or youtubeHD, or HuluPlus and just thought I'd remind folks that rebooting into WebOS is easier than some of the crazy work arounds people are trying. It's actually pretty amazing to be able to do what we do. Most phones that get an Alpha ROM with lots of bugs, have to deal with all of it......we can just boot back into WebOS and all is well.........so, Play with CM9, enjoy some apps and games, and the fun that it is, then boot into WebOS and watch a movie, or skype with your mom.........it's a GREAT friggen tablet!
So what doesn't work in CM9? I put CM7 on my tablet yesterday and the wifi not working and failing to connect all the time is driving me nuts. Almost to the point where I might just sell this thing.
Don't be foolish. There are threads 'aplenty dealing with and solving the wifi issue. Typically, it is caused by other routers near you using the same channel and changing your routers channel will solve the problem.
But if you are really so ticked off you want to sell, how much are you asking and is it a 32 or 16gb?

Lower the channel on your wifi router. Not sure what the bug is but that fixed it for me. (Iirc I had 11 or something, now 4 - works fine)

That only works if you can access the router. Kinda hard to do that at other businesses.
Will have to give CM9 a shot and see if it is any better.

What's everyone getting all riled up for? The original thread said nothing specifically about wifi, and just stated about how nice it is to have a dual boot system. And what doesn't work in android does in WebOS. Why all the negative ninnies here ?

I guess I don't understand the title. Cm9 everything works.
Netflix doesn't work. But at least change the title to represent this subject right. Maybe choose: between cm9 AND webOS, everything works (except netflix)
Just a thought. Ur title lures people in thinking that cm9 updated so everything works. And that isn't the case at all.
Just a friendly reminder.

I read this on Dalingin's Twitter. I guess I meant video codecs. The performance is great, I just want Netflix and HD Youtube.
Put on the alpha 0.6 after wiping with CWM. Works great. Wifi connects with no issues unlike CM7.
I keep seeing posts about HD video playing for Youtube and Hulu not working. I assume if I copied a bunch of HD movies onto it for travel they will have issues and general video playing would suck up battery life. Is hardware decoding in the works? Does CM7 suffer the same issue?
As far as video playback goes, I've been using arc media tab player. Using the regular. Avi files with very little problems. Its been great while on vacation and on the long flight.
Wanna play some games with a Wii Remote on your Rezound?
A lot of you were wanting to connect a Wii Remote to your Rezound (myself included) and several were annoyed and rather upset to find that Sense UI just doesn't do the job. Sense masks the necessary drivers. Well I have good news, but it's obviously not going to work with every ROM. Needless to say, it'll take some playing with. If you have a Sense based ROM, you'll probably have a harder time; though, the ROM I am using is not completely Senseless, so who knows... you may luck up!
What I am using:
CleanROM Developer Edition 1.4
3.13xx Kernel from the same developer and post.
ICS Firmware (Not sure if this will matter or not.)
It took some playing with, but I finally got my Wii controller to connect. Here's what you do. Go to the links below.
First:
Here
Second:
Here
You can get it from the market, but you have to have the second link in order for the Wii driver to be recognized by the program.
Before going into the program... let me save you some time. Go into a text field in a program, type "0000" and copy that text. You'll use this later.
Once you have these installed, it gets tricky.
1) Do NOT turn on bluetooth first... open the program and let the program start bluetooth using the check box.
2) Once BT is turned on, tap "Select IME", Select "Bluez IME"
3) Tap "Select Device"
4)Scan. Press 1 + 2 buttons simultaneously on the controller. The address for your controller should show up. Tap on it.
It will now ask you to confirm pairing with bluetooth device, open that dialog box. While the dialog box for accepting the bluetooth device is up, paste the text you copied earlier into the text field and hit "OK." (The controller may stop pairing, and the dialog box may go away, don't panic.) By default, the PIN is 0000. If you can type it, do so. If not, it'll probably still work (I didn't actually have to type it in, it just started working. )
Okay, now that you have it semi-paired, you'll only tap on "Select IME" from now on. When you tap it and select a different input method, it will automatically turn bluetooth off. Likewise, when you tap "Select IME" and select "Bluez IME," it will turn bluetooth on and display "Connecting to XX.XX.XX.XX" (<-- your Wii remotes address here). At this point, simply press 1 + 2 and it should display connected. To test if it's working, simply scroll through the menu using the d-pad. That's it!
This is my first walkthrough and I apologize if it's hard to understand! It goes without saying that I am not responsible for what you do to your phone. But it should all go smoothly!
Let us all know if you have come up with any better solutions and I'll update accordingly! Enjoy guys!
Here is a video as proof to the nay-sayers!

I have 2 Wii remotes, one is original Nintendo, the other is after market. I got both of them to work. I have not tried the nun-chuck with it, but I know some of the emulators have an option for it. I'm assuming the nun-chuck works with other phones using this program, so I don't see how it wouldn't work. I'll probably try that out tomorrow.
Edit: The nun-chuck does in fact work with it. I plugged mine up before pairing, and it had no effect on pairing. Works great with Mario 3!
thanks for the write up. i have a freind thats been tyring to get this to work with no luck. i am going to give this a shot myself

I don't know all the changes they made with the firmware update, but I would assume that bluetooth was one of the changes made. I say that because before the firmware leak, devs were having issues getting BT to work with the ICS Roms. So, that being said, this may only be possible with the firmware update. Keep in mind, however, that I had to play with it quite a bit to get it to work. It was totally worth it though, I was playing Supe Mario 64 on my phone with the nun-chuck and all. Flawless performance!

I'm using ICS now, but I see what you're saying. When we get the official ICS ota, the devs are going to start pushing out truly senseless roms and they will likely have no problem doing this (because of the ics kernel.) Fully ASOP roms can supposedly do this natively.

Hello. I wrote an app to deal with a problem with the SPen on my N7000 Samsung Note. Not sure if it will work on other Note models but would appreciate someone trying it out and telling me if it works on their device as well. Please see my original posting here. Thanks
Downloading, what problems have you been having?
synergeticink said:

The problem was mostly one of the accuracy of the Spen drifting over time. It was most evident in the position of the "floating" pointer that is optional on my Note N7000. So over time the floating pointer started to drift further and further from the SPen's actual tip. As this happened the accuracy of SPen touches would decline. Others have posted on the internet about this. I believe the posts I saw were about the N7000. So I am not sure if this occurs on the carrier-branded units as well. Thanks for letting me know if this works for you (although I hope you don't have the problem in the first place).
So this app is meant for non-stock roms I am assuming, since one could use the #combination to re-calibrate the s-pen from the dialer app?

Actually, I am on standard Touchwiz ICS 4.0.4 on my N7000 Note. I do have it rooted and am using the Hydracore Kernel to avoid the brick bug. I am not sure about the #combination to which you refer. I have run something from the dialer that allowed me to test the touchscreen by filling in some space around the screen and across the middle (up and down). But:
(a) that did not seem to do anything for my problem and
(b) it was a pain and time consuming since my spen starts drifting pretty quickly judging from the floating pointer
Cheers

Thanks for this. But fortunately, from what I have read, this isn't the problem I have been having with my SPen. Thankfully, my SPen's condition is far less severe. And the reset that my app is performing seems to be all that is needed. However, it is needed on a regular basis. I am running my app on a regular schedule automatically now.
That's good to hear, when I first bought mine AT&T said it was supposed to do that and there is nothing wrong and maybe I didn't know how to use the Spen. LMAO
I also found this if anyone wants to play with the hardware of the Spen http://phandroid.com/2012/12/05/how-to-adjust-s-pen/

Hello and sorry to hear of the problem you are having. I am not sure, but I doubt if my app will do anything regarding this problem. It certainly wasn't designed to address this. First, are you sure that vibrate preferences are set correctly? Have you tried powering off and restarting the phone? I can say that I recently had this or a similar problem on my Note N7000 phone when I updated the custom kernel I am using (HydraCore) from version 4.3b to the latest release. In this case, others had already reported the issue to the custom kernel's author. I think that HydraCore is specifically for the N7000 but it might be that you have a customs kernel that suffers from the same sort of thing. Good luck!
App Now On App Store
I have paid Google and have posted this app on the Play Store. I have also been at work on a new version that will incorporate a more complete UI (easy to be more complete that what is in this version), scheduled operations, and the ability to toggle auto-rotate as well as dominant hand (as some sources claim this helps with issues related to landscape versus portrait mode). Thanks to all for your feedback as this has encouraged me to go further!
Reset Spen Pro Now Available
A low priced version of this app is now available on the Play Market. It offers additional convenience and other features including scheduled background operation and suppression of success messages. If the free version works on your device, I hope you will consider the Pro version. Thanks!
Honestly do not do a thing to this app it is amazing does exactly what it needs to do and super simple just open the app and its do
