Learning from fundamental about CWM


What Is ClockworkMod Recovery And How To Use It On Android [Complete Guide]

it is more generic and broader covered than

Cleaning up SD and SD2

There is still many confusion about
Internal and External SD

The easiest way to view both is look at windows explorer
and set hp to connect as media device
so clear you can view THL
as
SD card and USB storage
From linux file manager under \mnt directory as
sdcard2 and sdcard respectively

This THL of calling is most proper
as object to reserve the name SD card to External removable SD card

Anyway, I have relocate some of the files from each app
expecially Titanium backup (under preference -> backup folder option
and move backup to USB storage

unless next time there is proper way of installation

In theory, I can install titanium and move whole app via app2SD
and then titanium would auto have point the backup to Ext SD card

This blog is just to remember that I have manage to clear the system app
inside the Internal USB storage to 1.61 Mb in size
on 30 Aug
The other program move are those whatsapp screenshot files

Later going to reduce further as clear up those baidu prog etc

Then maybe after tonight titanium backup then save as a update.zip for system app backup

The next day again

I have clear up for CWM backup and OnAndroid backup
both use the same but ultilize differently
Computer\ThL W1\USB storage\clockworkmod\backup

 I have clear up Mybackup setting to back to \mnt\sdcard2
so able clear up more at
Computer\ThL W1\SD Card\rerware\MyBackup

Final clean up USB storage to 1.73 G from 2G space

simple standalone traceless browser

I was not really impressed after I first execution of the private browser

http://www.browzar.com/download/termsandconditions_nb.php

BUT When I want to run the second time

I can not find in the program listing or even control panel program list

Then I realised every time to run this tiny browser I have to go back to download directory

Show in folderRemove from list


I run this browser every time as if like last time DOS program !

Now that is interesting

This will come in handy next time I run OS boot on thumb driver
and I can use it to connect Internet without any trace

TL-WR720N and HuaWei dongles

TL-WR720N was bought in China at about 120 RMB

The first thing to configure is to connect UTP to TL-WR720N

There are three modes router, 3G , AP

1. Safetest mode is to put to router mode
connect UTP to the LAN port (again avoid LAN/WAN port)

run a browser to conect via http://192.168.1.253

2. set up the wifi option under 无线设置
put a wifi password
Check the wifi server working ok or not

3. set to 3G mode and remove the UTP and connect via wifi

4. Set up the 3G

For all Singapore telco , turn of China telco and maually set

Few setting you require

I. Dial codes
there are three options
a. *99***1#
b. *99#
c. *777#

The first one a. is to one work with M1 unlimited dial up prepaid dial up plan
as given by staff at M1 paradgon shopping center

The second is the code given by hot line

II. APN is sunsurf

III. userid is 65

IV. password user123 but we used 65 again

So all in all, the setting work is
dial code *9***1#
APN sunsurf
userid 65
password 65

A. Dongle

There are various dongles

the list are the compatible list


看起来这华为型号有在



A. I have tried with 3556-Z
Z refer to ZTE
and it failed badly

B. The staff at paradgon has tested latest E303 and it work (even though it is not in list)

C. We have another E153 and it is in the list and works


Last but not least is the sequence of connection (simultate manually)

1. Under TP configuration and status menu, TP will try to recognize the dongle
some of the model may need .bin to allow to be recognize

when recognize
the configuration status flash few times
the confirm  is when 

识别成功
and the bar even show a colour code bar on the signal strength

Then it will try to dial
(If not need to configure to auto dial or connect under one of menu)

so part I,II,III, IV play a part

If connected then there will be ip address and DNS show 

If not please check setting and power on/off router

so with the right dongle, just need to put the SIM card and it will auto connect to Internet

Allwinner/Boxchip A10 vs. RK2918

http://www.slatedroid.com/topic/31293-allwinnerboxchip-a10-vs-rk2918-what-you-should-buy/


this is the comparison between 2 chipsets

and Allwin A10 seem to win

but then

http://www.slatedroid.com/topic/31887-latest-dual-cortex-a9-chips-coming-out-soon/

confuse me for the time being post by

Nickos-V 


No you don't Vicky!!!!

You have AllWinner A10 chip which is Cortex A8. It is single core & normally comes @ 1GHz though few tablets have 1.2GHz speed. It has somewhat better GPU than my tablet otherwise *all* of the CPU benches are very close to what I get. GPU benches will give different results.

Run Sunspider and you will see somewhere between 3500-5000ms (normal for A8) though with very bad firmware, 7000-10000ms. A dual core Cortex A9 tablet will get about 1700-2200ms. Sunspider is very CPU intense bench.
http://www.webkit.or.../sunspider.html

Trust me. I have known about the AllWinner A10 chip before it was released. A10 = chip name. Just like Rockchip RK2918. RK2918 = chip name. Nvidia Tegra2. Tegra2 = chip name., etc.

AllWinner named it A10 to confuse people into thinking they have Cortex A10 when they are just buying a Cortex A8.

PS, ARM does not have any Cortex A10 chips. From A8 it goes to A9 and then A15.

PPS, Sorry if I am tough on you but this gets me worked up because I have seen many other people think the same thing and I hate dealing with Chinese misinformation.
