I'm Back! (for a limited time at least)

dragonzkiller · Apr 14, 2012

I know that I've been extremely busy with school and all, but I'm just posting to give a heads up that this weekend I am working on the DX2. You can find me at the IRC at the freenode channel #cm7dx2. Can't wait to see you guys there!

P.S. that 2nd core thread over in the dev forums is a bunch of crap. don't use it. our 2nd core turns on automatically when needed. it's a power save feature in EVERY Tegra 2 device. So if you want to drain your battery, go on ahead.

Awesome! I was beginning to lose hope for cm9, with you being busy with school and all. maybe we will see something soon.

How would I get to the IRC channel to follow?

Go to http://webchat.freenode.net and sign in. in the channel section type "#cm7dx2"

Stuff is happening again! Too bad I just left DX2 along with some others... Would have been awesome to see CM9 eventually running on this Dual core machine... may be it will be better than my Dinc2... :/

Hey there Dragon, thanks for popping in and saying something so we don't have to answer the "what the heck is going on with cm9" question all day long.
Calling that second core thread "crap" is kind of mean. I'm sure Trafalgar worked hard on that. We were aware of the risks but traded a bit of life for performance.

But again thanks for the update.

His point is that there is no performance gain. The script just forces the second core to run at full capacity 100% of the time, instead of on-demand, which doesn't make a difference when you consider that on-demand just means it will activate the second core if the first core can't complete the task on its own.

Honestly I think the only difference that script will make is serious battery drain.

That said, I do appreciate the work trafalgar put into it. Always nice to see that there is still some hope for this phone's development

Welcome back sir!

That awkward moment where the OP has more thanks than posts.

DX2 ICS

Hey DragonzKiller. Welcome back!

As much as I'd love to switch form DX2, I'm stuck for another 1.5 years, so ICS is a BIG deal to me.

I can be absolutely patient as long as we still have hope.

It DOES NOT run at full capacity 100% of the time it follows the same governing pattern as the first core it just does not sleep

Dragon,
I feel ya on the schoolwork. I'm in the library, as I type, because my goal is walking across that stage in a month. Regards to your poll, I was thinking of voting for the first one, but my DX2 is running well with the current CM7. So I voted #2, so we can hopefully experience what we've been all missing out on. I cherish however long you stay with the DX2 because it's a long time until mid-2013....
Thanks for everything

I'm Back! (for a limited time at least)

Should I Work on The DX2

YES! Please work on CM7/CM9/ICS/anything else

YES! But only on CM9/ICS

NO! The DX2 is dead, why waste time?
