Guys often talk about drain battery.

Generally, better performance and better functionality it is more battery eating. If you want max battery saving, then never do not use bluetooth, wi-fi, GSM, 2G, 3G, set min brightness etc.. Everybody have choose. :)
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] asn-mat:
i noticed no defference !!!!!!!
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Graveir:
Check stuff like connection speed or distance that you can now have from you router. Mayhaps you simply have a good router hardware and the difference is hard to spot - I feel an improvement personally ;)

But if you feel you don't need it - switch it off, why risk a higher battery drain if nothing really changes ;)
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] ponanovn:
Can anyone confirm by checking connected devices in your routers status?

192.168.0.1

192.168.1.1

and username and password is often:

admin

or

admin
1234

EDIT: If anyone can confirm this I will add this to the next MiniCM.

What I'm posting is a translation of the linked post:

Hope it's enough :)
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Tobi@s:
Well... I dont find tiwlan.ini in CM7 RC4 Rom... Where is it?

Edit: got it :)
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] -ReaL-:
As i know, this router supports only 2.4GHz freq., isn't it?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Graveir:
What'd you know, you're right... I'll post it on polish board then and ask for more tests :) However, this still means that n standard works, and that 5GHz band might be operational! :)
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] ojojoj:
I use CM7 and Dlink DIR-620 and can confirm what n standart works:)
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] -ReaL-:
I just post this information about 802.11n unlock in our 4pda forum to find testers, who can confirm 5GHz support. I hope...

This router, as previous, supports only 2.4GHz...
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] ojojoj:
I mean n standart not 5Ghz
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] -ReaL-:
Find variable:

WiFiAdhoc = 0

Change it to:

WiFiAdhoc = 1

Now you can connect to Ad|hoc (computer<>computer networks)
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Graveir:
Thank you for this! I'm gonna write in into the first post.

Could you by any means verify if it works? :)
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] -ReaL-:
I will test it soon and post results...
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] smoczoos:
Tested on racht's v0.15 Floyo. Wifi connected to my TP-Link WR740N. Was set as 11n only. But after 10-15 secs phone couldn't find any network. Restart of wifi doesn't work.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Graveir:
Try erasing all the neworks in settings, reboot and check again.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] aerosmith1:
i tried to enable ad-hoc but it dint work.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] nos1609:
Same probllem on miniCM-RC1

EDIT: Solved. Erase all saved networks and reboot
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Graveir:
Ok, this is the second time it worked, so I guess it's a rule by now. Added to the first post.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] UAL4588:
I didn't do anything, just did the mods in the first thread, no erasing, and everything works. I have been hanging on my wifi for about 8 hours now and speed have improved a lot. No N router so can't test.

Edit: I'm using CM7 v007 from Jerplea
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] smoczoos:
Did it again. 11n only on TL-WR740N. Phone still connecting on 2,4GHz. And it keeps on disconnecting all the time.

On other routers which support b/g only it is working good.

Edit: After erasing all saved networks it stopped disconnecting. But it is working on 2,4GHz, 65Mbps.

Edit2: Hey, I just discovered that my router supports only 2,4 GHz ;)

[XPERIA X8 Android Development] esirad:
hi gravier, can you add DLNA to our x8 or it's hardware issue?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Graveir:
Frankly speaking, I was unable to find such an option. There is one more, which enables H standard, but due to relatively low popularity of A and it variations I did not include it. The rest seems to be about protocols, power management and so on.

[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Doomguy:
Very unstable on my phone. WiFi crash every minute. I try to delete saved networks and reboot, but this works temponary. The router is TP-Link TL-WR1043ND. Any sugestions?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Graveir:
I'm not sure if files are the same for every ROM (the directory is definately different for CM7 ROMs), but I can post you my miniCM file, so that you can compare them - if they're the same, simply push the file with changed values, there is nothing you can screw, and if you're still unsure - make a backup of .ini file. Besides, all you can screw is your wifi, so the phone will boot anyway, and then you can push the original file back :)

Did you change any other value than those posted? Because as far as I can see the router works in 2.4 band exclusively, so the dual band should not be the issue... but, just to be on the safe side, why don't you disable 5GHz support in your device?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Doomguy:
I try to change only n support value, but same problem apears. Same on my old X10 mini.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Graveir:
Perhaps something is wrong with N standard in your router... Did you try to connect your phones to any other wifi network? Like your friend's place?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Doomguy:
Only I have n router from my friends. Other n adapters runs fine, even on maximum load. All other hardware run stable. Doesn't loop or disconect. I will try DD-WRT, but my revision is not supported yet.

Sent from my X8
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Graveir:
Well then, I'd say that you have a hardware problem in your phone, but it is strange, since two of your devices share it... One more question, what versions of what ROMs do you have in your XPERIAs?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Doomguy:
On X8 racht's floyo before, now CM mini. On my old x10 mini (now my mother's phone) work with stock ROM. Same problem. But as I told before, my other devices works fine, only phones doesn't. All of my computers are connected to wifi and my desktop pc runs 24/7 makes a huge amount of trafic. I don't have any problems with it.

Edit: X8 had problems even with stock ROM without n mod. Conection are lost while downloading something from market or browser. Then i must restart wifi and turn on again. X10 Mini don't have this problem.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Graveir:
Well then, I guess I don't have a solution to your problem :( The only things that came to my mind were old firmware (like android 1.6), but custom ROMs wouldn't run on anything lower than 2.1.1.A.06 version, or hardware malfunction, but that's hardly probable if two phones share the same problem... And router is OK, too...
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Doomguy:
My firmware is same. Thanks for your help man. :)
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] zangetsu2188:
Thanks for this!

Experienced an increase on wifi coverage.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Doomguy:
I slove my problem. Change router firmware to latest DD-WRT and no any problems :).
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Graveir:
Ah, see, so there was a router issue after all :) Well, good to know it's working for you :)
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] cuecak:
anyways... i use cm7 by oswain.. i open the .ini .. and some setting u tell just already enabled...

like the burst and adhoc... its drain bateries quickly when use wifi..

i do undervoltage, but when wifi on... bateries keep drain quick..

btw... for 5ghz.. still cannt scan the ssid,, i test it on my rb 433 mikrotik.. does't show the ssid..
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Graveir:
If you don't like it then disable it :) Simply convert the digits back into '0' and the battery drain should decrease ;)
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] cuecak:
its not bout ' like it or not ' i guess...

but keep ur work.. its great.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Graveir:
I beg your pardon? The N standard is using additional aerials which drain battery more, it's only natural - if you'd rather have longer battery life than a wifi range - disable options enumerated in the first post. It is about what you like, isn't it? And I believe all custom ROMs have an edited tiwlan file...
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] PsYtiB:
I have a 2.1.1.A.0.6 modified ROM, I applied all the steps, and seems to work...Wi-Fi is now 8,8Mbps instead of 4Mbps, so I can say it's double :)
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] proadi96:
I am using elelinux v006a and i dont know if it work .... is there any application to check this please give me name or link ;))
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Graveir:
The easiest way to check it is to either open tiwlan.ini file and check the N standard line, or to set your router to N standard only mode on try to connect.

Besides, I'm running Elelinux myself now, and I believe it's working :)
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] proadi96:
Can you post me here how this line is call ? Please and what i should have there :)
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Graveir:

[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Griffrez:
On FroyoBread ROM, the tiwlan.ini exists in both /system/etc and /system/etc/wifi... Which do I edit? Or do I edit both?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Graveir:
You edit none - as far as I know all custom ROMs have N standard enabled by default :)
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Sew00:
I have a problem with this,

If i switch the router to N only, my phone keeps disconnecting. Even if i forget all networks and reboot.

Any idea?

I have miniCM6 1.0.1
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Graveir:
Maybe your N standard is set to a too high channel?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Sew00:
Do i have to set that in the router or on the phone?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] proadi96:
How to set router to a WiFi n standard?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Graveir:
Router. It has been reported that our X8 has problems using channels higher than, as far as I remember, 9.

Check in the guidebook for your router :rolleyes:
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Sew00:
Pff, i was running an older firmware version on my router so i did the upgrade and now it's working fine.

Thanks for your help :)

What i want to know is, how do i know if its running wifi N or B or G?

It will always go with N? or i have to keep the Wireless-N setting always?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Graveir:
Well, your phone will go for N standard if it can, if it is not available it will use some lower one. As for the router, it's the same case unless you switch it to N standard only ;)
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] luca_v3r:
Hello!

I follow the step of first post, but I can't see my ad-hoc network that I see with my HD2 Android phone.

Someone is unable to connect to these networks with the X8?

Thanks!
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Dexter_prog:
My phone keeps disconnecting if I set my router to N-only. I have cleared all the remembered networks and rebooted. By the way, the router is a TP-Link WR941ND, which kind of coincides with this post:

edit: it's the AES encription what kills it. If I use TKIP it works, but that means no n-wifi (as N only works with AES encription :/)

I googled and some people mentioned changing WME_enable to 0. What would that do?

I found this: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=9113924&postcount=2

It seems that wifi n on our device only works on dual band (5ghz) and not in single band (2.4ghz). Since my router is single band, that may be the reason for the disconnections.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] datatsiko:
i did all that and my phone connects to only N wifi. not to g anymore,even after changing settings back.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Master Darko:
Wife's phone has all the files mentioned above but 5Ghz still doesn't work. I have FritzBox with simultaneous dual-band and 2.4GHz only ever gets picked up. N standard does work as she connects at 65Mbits/sec as oppose to 54Mbits/sec prior to tweak.

Development dropped in favor of Liberation.

Only difference between Nothing Special 1.3 and Liberation 1.0 is that Google Car Home has been replaced by the stock HTC Car Panel. This is to remove "holes" left by the removal of a stock app. Also, this no longer conflicts with my intent of having a stock ROM minus carrier bloat/restrictions. Google Car Home can be added by the user if they so choose.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jaykresge:
Modifications:

A note about the below medications. They may or may not flash with your recovery. If you see *(recovery) after a mod, it means that I have personally verified that it works. For outdated mods, I will, over time, convert them to Clockwork Mod 3.x. If you want to see a mod listed here, PM me so that I can add it. Posting it in the thread won't always catch my attention.

Smooth Sense Icons w/white battery indicator - Thanks goes out to jercik for the mod and squintz for the port and white text change. This collection of icons makes Sense look much nicer.* (2.5.0.5, 2.5.1.2)

Status Bar tweaks - Thanks goes to pardonmyfreedom - collection of mods allows you to change what icons show up in your status bar (IE, clock, battery meter, E911 location icon, etc.)* (2.5.0.5, 2.5.1.2)

3-in-1 Reboot Menu - Thanks goes to snq - When you hold the power button, beneath the shut down icon you'll have a reboot option. This gives you three more choice; normal, boot-loader (HBOOT), recovery. * (2.5.0.5, 2.5.1.2)

Evo Camera - Provided by various sources, this camera is the same as the Incredible camera, but has an on-screen button for those who hate using the track-pad. * (2.5.0.5, 2.5.1.2)

Kernels:

If you see a * (approved), it means that I have personally tested the kernel(s) at the provided link with this ROM. In theory, any Sense kernel should work on this ROM. If you have a favorite kernel, PM me the link and description so that I can add it.

Heyitslou's custom kernels -customized versions of the stock kernel, these kernels offer excellent stability, battery life, and real world performance, but won't win any synthetic benchmark comparisons. I use #8 and HIGHLY recommend it. All credit to the linked thread author.* (approved)

What is the difference between peanut and plain? Maybe I need to read the discription of both again. Either way, thanks for your hard work friend.

[DINC]|[CM7]|[SLAYHER#27]
[Droid Incredible Android Development] lhinds7:
I've been on CM forever. Might be kinda nice to go back to stock-ish and mess around with it a bit. Thanks man!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hgoldner:
Yes, read the OP for "Nothing Special (plain)," the link is at the bottom of the OP here. Basically, plain is odexed, and cannot take mods, etc. It is simply stock with crapware eliminated and one or two very minor tweaks. It's for those who don't want to stray far from stock, and are content with their ROM as is.

Peanut is deodexed, and can therefore be modded. You can flash other themes, kernels, etc. and build it any way you want from stock, instead of from other ROM builders' vision of what "stock" should be.

All credit to Jason for a very nice job doing something that was long overdue. Not planning on running it myself, but flashed plain on my daughter's Incredible and I don't think I'll have to provide any more tech support to her from here on in.

Plain or Peanut is now more up-to-date than Virtuous, which was formerly the best "first step" for anybody exploring ROM's.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jaykresge:
hgoldner did a great job of summing up the differences, so I'm going to add a bit more technical bits to it.

When a ROM is odexed, as the stock ROM is, it means that the key apps (anything made by HTC) are divided up into two parts; an APK file and an ODEX file. When you first load an odexed ROM, all of the APK files copy over to the /data/data/ folder for installation. The ODEX files remain in /system/app/ and are used like libraries on your desktop.

On a deodexed ROM, the ODEX and APK files are combined into one APK. So, when these APKs are copied to /data/data/, they take up more space. This is a key reason why the first bootup of a deodexed ROM takes so much longer than an odexed equivalent, as more data is being copied over. Also, this is why Plain has 722MB available to the user (more than any other ROM I'm aware of, even edging out the stock ROM, which is 710), while Peanut has 676MB available to the user.

An odexed ROM is harder to modify and is not compatible with modifications made for deodexed ROMs. So, only run Plain if you want a stock ROM, without bloat, and with more space available for apps. Run Peanut if you can live with less space, but want a choice in what addons are run.

I'll be adding more addons to this thread almost daily. I'll make it as easy as possible to customize this ROM the way you want it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hgoldner:
Wow. Didn't know that myself. This would strongly suggest that odexed ROM's have a less likelihood of filling up the \data\data 150mb partition, and therefore would be less likely to produce the "low memory space" warning. Yes?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jaykresge:
Exactly :) You get roughly 50MB extra from being odexed, depending on the ROM. In the case of Nothing Special, deodexing takes away 46MB from /data/data/. I've tried to keep it somewhat clean though, as most other custom ROMs use up a little more space than this.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] BerkleyJ:
This is what virtuous was supposed to be. Virtuous' definition of "essential fixes" is a little flawed to me. Perfect stock ROM. Thanks.

EDIT: In my opinion this is what virtuous should have been. Virtuous' definition of "essential fixes" is a little flawed to me. Perfect stock ROM. Thanks.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jaykresge:
RMK did a great job on Virtuous. I'm a mere hack compared to him as a ROM developer. I think Virtuous is what is was meant to be, but he's just moved on to the G2.

My ROMs are merely another alternative.
