Question: Does anyone know if there is a diagram of some sort showing "how customized Android works"?
Meaning: You have ROM's, CMOS of some sort I use called TWRP, the OS itself, etc.
Assume: There are tons of hard core computer people out there, many even Linux people....who just never really "got into phones" by choice, but always appreciated and followed them...and would like to understand how things work.

Its a question, therefore q&a
Development is for a release of some sort, not asking for stuff
Schematics or flow charts?
Do you also wants flow chart of kernel lineage?
Thanks for writing.
I'm just looking for something simple that a 5 year old could understand.
Like a Photoshop picture or something with like blocks that tell me what leads to what, and what does what... Assuming you're rooting your phone. Meaning...If I root my phone, I need to understand what the ROM does, what the CMOS (whatever it's called) does, which is most important to do first, etc. Flow-charty, yes. etc
But...anything you have is fine.
Thanks

In all seriousness, someone asked a similar question last week and basically what you're looking for is not available. Maybe a Linux/Android book may have something.

What the go?
I have yet to find any info on the ATI drivers? Do they do both 2D and 3D?
Cab or ROM only?
Any links?
where did you hear about the ATI drivers?

Artemids 3.0 is using them for his ROM and its super smooth
This is just good public marketing. These drivers are already included in our ROM's from at least version 1.66 and maybe before. The use of these is simply just using the factory drivers and not Cainfires patch. As I said good marketing to promote a ROM. I personally don't see much difference between the 2 drivers, but I think I will stay with the Chainfire just for the option to switch to anti stutter mode for some applications.
Remember smoothness can be effected by other factors such as cache etc. After all we are talking about 3D drivers here which have little or no effect in 2D performance which is what manila would be.

Well then, if I'm wrong then why don't you explain to everyone. You can look in your own device and see if the driver is there. I forget the exact name but contains 2d-z430.dll. When I asked you before about it you said you were using the drivers from 2.02. If I'm wrong then please by all means correct me and show us the difference.

No your right you don't have to explain. But when the question gets brought up, I will jump in. Just like the fake 1ghz Hack. I just don't see the need to misleading people.
For anyone who wants to know more just google AMD/ATI z430 drivers. Our LEO comes with these drivers.
I know it's not one file, I just used the one as a example. I did not say you had any problems.
If you have something more that is so great then why don't you share it? Oh maybe you are one of those cooks who doesn't like to share but like to benefit from what everyone else here shares?

yes sharing is KEY
agree with your post bobsbbq,
cooking should always show respect by sharing (at least principles and methodology) and explaining...kindly,
there should be no competition spirit and isolated towers here, what the hell ??!!

oh ok thank you.
Does anyone know where it is? I think there was also something like a program to help new developers learn etc.
Can someone point me in the correct direction please?
I don't know where the link is but Hello, Android (http://pragprog.com/book/eband3/hello-android) is a fantastic book for newbies to learn android. I recommend the e-book because you get free updates.
Good luck!

Hi all,
Just wondering if anyone knew when the Xperia S is getting android 4.0/whether it was worth putting a custom rom on it, depending on how much time there is.
Thanks,
Storm08
Good grief!
This forum needs a like button
We're not getting it, ever... Its a myth like unicorns
Last time I heard from Motorola that Xperia s will get 4.0 early next.year.

What is the deal with our phones having a development and an original development section on the forums here. I just got my s4 and I dont want to screw it up by flashimg twrp from the original development section if that was for a prerelease version of the phone or something weird like that.
Thanks in advance :good:

You are so weird, the question of this thread has been answered and nothing should happen. It is YOU jumping up, showing how "well known" you were. Not sure how you were educated and even non-trained to respect others.

It's been answered about 150 times prior, so we didn't need this thread in the first place. My point exactly.
