Tech Writer: Recognition for the technical writers of AFF - Issue reason: Outstanding work on the FG ICC issues. Technical Contributor: For members who share their technical expertise. - Issue reason: The insane amount of work he has put into the Falcon FG ICC is unbelievable. He has shared everything he has done and made a great deal of it available to us all. He has definitely helped a great deal of us with no personal gains to himself. 
Default Re: FORD technical service bulletin : ICC touch screen display

Work, as usual, is mad. Little incentive to spend time on this now I've got 90% of what I wanted sorted in my holiday... Today, I had thought maybe a hair drier might help with a broken unit... The bad unit with hundreds of corrupt files (which I've fixed) seems to produce lots of ECC messages (which I assume are properly corrected) when I power it up after sitting on the bench for days unused... The flash chip hovers around 40C when powered up for a while, and then doesn't report too many ECC problems after many reboots, as opposed to sitting for days and reporting a huge number of ECC corrections when first powered up after a lot of time.

Letting it sit for a few hours though - nope - not too many ECC problem reports when back to ambient. Very confusing.

Very dodgy too. These flash chips don't instill confidence.

(Oh, and I'm trying to remove the double buffered video thing I added before, that removes flickering, which is why I'm playing again - 3MB of buffers & copying it 10 times a second seems like it would be pushing the unit - and I want to see if I can get it working properly, more efficiently, before going forward.)

Nothing to see here, sorry :(
