			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-694" title="css_logo" src="http://www.equk.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/css_logo.png" alt="" width="135" height="135" />Since the orangebox update there have been numerous bugs, lots of them are exploitable &amp; some are being kept secret.</p>
<p>There is a huge bug at the moment since the last 3 updates where you can double tap on certain weapons giving you an advantage. On some weapons it causes huge recoil and also for people who do multiple double/triple bursts in matches it just messes up the recoil now whereas before you could do proper timed bursts for headshots.</p>
<p>There are also bugs with sniper zoom/accuracy/movement (allowing people to run while scoped) &amp; a known bug where nades can do more damage (exploitable as it&#8217;s not random).</p>
<p>Here is a video from youtube showing the AWP/Scout doubletap (yes both shots can register hits so it&#8217;s not clientside only).</p>
<p><object width="500" height="400" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="http://www.youtube.com/v/q5kKjXGUO50"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/q5kKjXGUO50" />This video was embedded using the YouTuber plugin by <a href="http://www.roytanck.com">Roy Tanck</a>. Adobe Flash Player is required to view the video.</object></p>
<p>The doubletap bug comes from the <a href="http://store.steampowered.com/news/4114/" target="_blank">updates released on  23/07/2010</a>.<br />An update came out today but does nothing to stop it.</p>

<p>There are a few reasons for making this, the main one is to make it easy to install a new updated Official ROM (which prob has bugfixes) &amp; apply one update without losing all of these manufacturer bugfixes. (a lot of mods seem to replace so much)<br />So the mod will only be a few MB instead of replacing 70MB of manufacturers fixes with a lower version causing incompatibility with libraries &amp; completely losing the point of upgrading.<br />Also you will be able to install the mod without having to do a factory reset and losing all your settings etc.</p>
<p>So far the things which I actually find useful (and will prob add to the mod) are:</p>
<p>ARM11 Optimizations<br />New OpenGL Drivers<br />JIT<br />Relocation of dalvik-cache<br />Removal of debug dumps on startup<br />Volume mod (kernel)<br />Gallery3D (replace gallery completely)<br />Removal of system apps which are not required</p>
<p>Stuff I&#8217;ve never really used and will probably not bother with in this mod:</p>
<p>Live Wallpapers (bit gimmicky)<br />Nexus One Launcher (LauncherPro is much better)</p>
<p><strong>So far I have a mod which:</strong><br /> removes wssyncmlnps.apk, MyFiles.apk &amp; Gallery.apk<br />installs gallery3d.apk<br />installs custom media player with widgets (based on nexus one)<br />instals a custom startup script to relocate dalvik &amp; also remove debug dumps<br />installs a custom hosts file to block adverts<br />fixes file permissions</p>

<p>I&#8217;ve since installed my mods for moving dalvik-cache and clearing mem.<br />I&#8217;ve also installed a ARM11 optimized build of OpenGL v1.4, ARM11 optimized build of JIT v8.12.<br />I also removed a few system apk&#8217;s which weren&#8217;t needed and disabled some startup services which weren&#8217;t needed.<br />Most recently I have installed a custom compiled kernel which has optimizations for ARM.</p>
<p>With all of those tweaks/mods I have a linpack score of <strong>8.419MFLOPS</strong>.<br />This seems to be faster than the nexus one benchmark.</p>

<p>On looking into the problem with memory usage on the samsung i5700 it seems the system is creating memory dumps from the debugger process.<br />These seem to mount up and use huge amounts of memory cuasing the /data partition to fill up quickly.</p>
<p>This may be cuased by installing JIT (unconfirmed atm)</p>
<p>These files were taking up 65mb of storage on my phone (on a 150mb partition).</p>
<h6>65.7M   /data/tombstones</h6>
<p> </p>
<p>I have now added to the script which relocates dalvik-cache to the /cache partition so on every reboot these files are removed.</p>
<p>After applying this new mod I have nearly 100mb of free space on /data.</p>
<h6>Filesystem                Size      Used Available Use% Mounted on<br />tmpfs                    80.7M     12.0K     80.7M   0% /dev<br />tmpfs                     4.0M         0      4.0M   0% /sqlite_stmt_journals<br />/dev/stl6               196.3M    130.5M     65.8M  67% /system<br /><span style="color: #00ff00;">/dev/stl5               147.1M     52.8M     94.3M  36% /data</span><br />/dev/stl7                78.7M     41.9M     36.8M  53% /cache<br />/dev/stl10                7.5M    776.0K      6.8M  10% /efs<br />/dev/bml8                 4.0M      4.0M         0 100% /xbin<br />/dev/stl7                78.7M     41.9M     36.8M  53% /data/dalvik-cache</h6>

<p><strong>Basics on the filesystem layout:</strong><br /> (512mb is divided into partitions)<br /> /dev 82mb<br /> /system 200mb<br /> /data 150mb<br /> /cache 80mb</p>
<p>I thought why can&#8217;t we move/repoint dalvik-cache to this nearly empty  partition?<br /> <em><strong>I had already heard that people had used SDCards  for this but I think that is pretty pointless as SDCards are slow and  should be classed as removable storage</strong></em> (ie &#8211; you should be able  to boot without them)<br /> On searching around I found someone had actually done this before  without any problems.</p>
<p>The script makes the system put dalvik cache into the /cache partition  which is 80mb and gets used by various processes for caching &amp; OTA  updates (prob don&#8217;t have those anymore anyway)</p>
<p>Result:</p>
<h6>df<br />Filesystem           1K-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on<br />tmpfs                    82624        12     82612   0% /dev<br />tmpfs                     4096         0      4096   0% /sqlite_stmt_journals<br />/dev/stl6               200996    133668     67328  67% /system<br /><span style="color: #00ff00;">/dev/stl5               150644    105580     45064  70% /data</span><br /><span style="color: #3366ff;">/dev/stl7                80576     41962     38614  52% /cache</span><br />/dev/stl10                7729       776      6953  10% /efs<br />/dev/bml8                 4096      4096         0 100% /xbin<br />/dev/stl7                80576     41962     38614  52% /data/dalvik-cache</h6>
<p> </p>
<p>Now another 45mb of storage for more apps and dalvik is still writing to the internal storage<br /><em>note: in comparison the htc desire only has a 40mb /cache partition</em></p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;">WARNING: THIS METHOD CAN BE DANGEROUS. DO NOT TRY IF YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING.<br />I CAN&#8217;T BE RESPONSIBLE IF YOU BRICK YOUR PHONE.</span></p>
<p><em><strong>Update:</strong> I have now made a mod zip which can be applied using recovery &#8211; <a href="http://forum.samdroid.net/f9/relocate-dalvik-cache-free-up-space-1117/" target="_blank">Link</a></em></p>

<p>Seems to fit quite well and doesn&#8217;t look too bad.<br />I bought it to protect the sides of the phone and also the back as the back cover is quite thin, although that seems to be the norm at the moment with most new phones.</p>
<p>The case only cost £2 including postage.</p>
