2708

Maybe you should apply the "14MB RAM hack" (located here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=831139) and using a "2708-kernel".

You will receive ~112MB of RAM and you could also use compcache and/or swap to get a sufficient performance on your G1.

I have just been using the lock messenger app in memory and it fixed the problem.

The new COS (17th April) seems to be a lot faster and apparently has some low memory "tweaks". I have tested this load without the lock, and so far it works...but I still don't trust it. Anyone else had any luck with the new loads?

COS latest release

I flashed the COS release (17th of April) yesterday and I don't think, that I lose sms since then, because the stock sms app announced every message to me (of course I enabled the "keep SMS app in memory" option). To be sure, that I don't miss any messages I continue to use the ghostly sms app.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abadasstanker69:
I just bought the EVO and ended up giving it to my chick. I have grown to love my Hero way to much to let it go. My chick is very clumsy so I decided to get the insurance. Right after we left the Sprint store I dropped my Hero. The problem that I'm having is that I unlocked my phone with the S-Unlock and I'm worried that a simple RUU will not be enough to pass through Assurion or whatever you call it.

So my question is...will the official RUU be enough? Are there other steps I should take prior to sending it back? Is there any other information I need to know regarding this issue that I haven't mentioned?

I know this is in the Development Thread. I don't think it should be in Q&A due to the possible need for developmental help such as the S-Unlock/Relock or what have you. If an admin thinks it should be somewhere else, please feel free to move it. I just think it fits better here. Thanks!

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FdxRider:
Isn't Regaw's s-off at the radio level? If so find a GSM radio and flash it and brick it.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] il Duce:
In theory it would go s on. I don't know how deep into code regaw went. It depends I guess on whether regaws is below the bootloader, or part of the bootloader. Obviously the eng spl overwrites regaws bootloader version. I think though -please correct me if I'm wrong- that if you do the spl you can flash HEROC.zip and regaws it's HERCIMG.zip, right? If thats right then I promise regaws sticks, I flashed the spl after unrevoked and still can flash HERCIMG.zip as well as use fastboot commands...

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pstevep:
im not awesomely experienced with the s-off methods, but i do know that i have only used eng spl to s-off.. i havent used regaws or unrevoked, and i flash HERCIMG.zip and use fastboot commands..

but just for a weird series of events, i flashed my brother-in-law's hero with eng spl and i couldnt get it to flash a HERCIMG.zip, i didnt try a HEROC.zip (didnt have time, i was upgrading him to GB and .35 kernel and s-off was just extra).. so im not sure.. i just know mine flashes HERCIMG.zip and i have only used eng-spl..
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abadasstanker69:
OK GUYS!!!!!!!! Here's the verdict....

I flashed the HERCIMG.ZIP found here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=804692

Sprint took the phone, no questions asked, and told me to come back in 30 minutes to pick up my newly screened phone.

I DID USE UNREVOKED FOREVER!!!

After the reboot I tried to get back in to recovery and got the HTC black splash screen with the red x. Hboot still booted, however, and I can flash another HERCIMG.ZIP as soon as I get it back. BUT, when I talked to the Sprint guy he seemed cool so I told him what was up. He said that I knew more than he did and that he never would have known to check.

So....conclusion? Sprints employees aren't very privy to the information we all are. They don't know how to check or what to check. So, for now, we can fly under the radar....for now ;-)
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pstevep:
i wondered if that would be the case.. i have had to talk to sprint a lot in the past month because of signal issues.. and everytime i talk to someone, they always want to push some sort of update to my phone.. and they say well your phone rejected the update, so then they want to troubleshoot it.. so i end up telling them that my phone is rooted, and if i really need to update that i can do it later, and ask them what PRL i should be running and what not.. i have confused more advanced techs for sprint, because they think they know it all, but a lot of them dont know much about rooted phones.. i have only come in contact with one tech who knew anything about it..

maybe sprint should hire us:rolleyes:

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashykat:
Hey everyone. I'm having issues with my wifi disconnecting a lot on my myTouch 4G, which is a pretty big problem for me considering I don't get great signal in my apartment so I rely on Wifi Calling. I've updated my router firmware (Linksys WRT54G) and have it secured with WPA2 with TKIP+AES. My phones wifi sleep policy is set to "never", and I'm starting to get a little irritated. I'm using a new SIM card so I don't believe that to be an issue. Does anyone have any ideas? I feel like I'm a pretty tech savvy person so this really gets on my nerves. Any help will be much appreciated.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] camalus:
What rom? What kernel?

If you are on stock... my wife had that issue. Wifi was constantly dropping. She finally let me root it and now she's in love with royal Ginger.

I tried everything I could.... was easier to just root it and go aosp.

Sorry I can't be more help, but that was my experience with stock.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashykat:
Oops I'm sorry, I forgot that information isn't in my signature here on XDA yet. I'm running Stock, but I'm already perm rooted with s-off so flashing a ROM is something I've considered, but other than the wifi issue I have no problems with stock. Does Royal Ginger have a functioning wifi calling app? That's a must have for me as I live in a black hole of cell phone reception. Not one single carrier gets reception in this apartment. At best you bounce between 1 and 0 bars.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashykat:
I've just wondered if maybe the wpa_supplicant file could be the culprit? Is that something that has changed in Royal Ginger or other third party ROMS, like a different version of the file?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] camalus:
I'm in the same boat as you. Middle of the woods here. My wifi and I both rock royal Ginger. Or CM. Depends on the day.

Wifi calling works great with royal ginger
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashykat:
Hmmm, maybe I should give that a try that. I already have clockworkmod recovery so it's not like I have a whole long way to go to flash RoyalGinger... Up until this point I've never been much of a ROM flasher though so I guess I better read up on all that needs to be done. I assume of course I should do a nandroid backup or two just to be safe, backup with Titanium, wipe my sd card and then flash through clockwork? Anything you'd add that I'm missing?

Thanks for your reply by the way. Wifi Calling is such a must for me that I'd hate to flash a shiny new ROM then realize it's missing.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashykat:
Thanks for the RoyalGinger suggestion. I'm all flashed now and so far so good on the Wifi.

Well at first like a big idiot I restored "all" data. I realized what I'd done while it was restoring but it was too late. I did a factory reset and cleared the cache and set it up again but this time just with missing apps and data.

I have an Evo 4g running CM 7 final, and i noticed that boot times literally take 1 minute and 56 seconds. I looked up a video that showed a stock Evo starting up and it took 45 seconds, any advice to speed up the boot time? Hibernation/fastboot for CM7?

Did you ever find a fix for the slow boot on your evo? would love to learn if you did.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
The first boot up will take a bit longer, due to the fact of rebuilding the cache; or your can try flashing a different boot animation.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] disstill:
Doesn't have a problem with the boot animation. Problem seems to be the splash screen. When phone is unrooted it boots in about 35-45 secs. When rooted the splash screen alone takes about 1-2 minutes before it switches to the boot animation. Any ideas how to speed up the splash screen/ find out what is causing it to hang on the splash screen? Thanks
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snowboarda42:
Thats because CM7 is so full of win, it takes a little longer to load it all into such a small package.

I had long boot up times,i was using burnt droid and nets kernel, I also have a custom splash screen I photo shopped, then when I went to cm7 I did factory reset now boot times are really quick, just back up apks and contacts and do fact, reset, you should keep your splash as I did but should help with boot speed

Coincidentally, I have a Mac as well and I use a program called Android Screencast. If your thunderbolt is rooted, you can control it with your computer. If it is not rooted, you will only be able to see the screen on your computer. This has worked on another phone I have used. Should work on any android.

Well I have tried basically every method to get the market to work. Recently upgraded to JVK from Darkys 9.3 (Market worked for half the apps). Then decided to downgrade back to Froyo.

Have cleared the data and cache of pretty much every app.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mstevens:
My wife installed the update on her stock g-Tablet while it was still available OTA. I tried installing roebeet's Gapps without success, so used Z4root to root her tablet and tried again. Now I can't get into recovery at all! The tablet detects the recovery keypress, but no matter how long I wait, nothing ever happens. I've tried re-installing the update from the downloaded file - no dice, since it never gets beyond notifying me that it detected the keypress. The tablet will boot and things seem to run properly. I've tried un-rooting using Z4root, but this seems to make no difference.

Any ideas what to try before I resort to nvflash?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] butchconner:
mstevens,

This is only my philosophy, so you don't have to do it -- can make your own choice.

When I don't know what's going on with my machines, I always go with a fix that will

get me back somewhere where I know what's going on and I know the machine is

working right.

If my tablet were doing what yours is doing, I wouldn't mess with anything else --

I just take about five minutes to NVFlash back to bekit 1105/Version 2638. Then

another 10 minutes to OTA up to 3588. The set things up enough to check and

make sure it's solid and working right.

Then I'm ready to head out where I want to go.

How many times have you read in these posts where someone has a problem and

then tries to flash two or three more roms on top of a questionable situation?

To me having a "known good" is critical for moving on -- and if I don't I don't.

I apologize for the rant. You are handling the situation well so far. NVFlash if

you want to, but make sure it's working right whatever you do so you can

have some fun!!!! :)

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasco13:
You could just try to nvflash part9 with the img file from the 1.2 cwr zip file. That would give you a recovery without having to start all over. Especially since the updater isn't allowing you to upgrade past 3588 anymore.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mstevens:
Agreed. In this case, my wife had already applied the OTA update. Once that had been done, I couldn't see a way to back-up her setup. When she wanted me to try to install the Market, I did that knowing I might have to nvflash.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mstevens:
I'll certainly try that - it makes sense before doing a full nvflash and re-build. My concern is that the problem is with the kernel since I think Z4root caused the problem, so re-flashing just the recovery may not work. I'll give it a try and report back.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mstevens:
Is it boot.img or bootloader.bin that gets renamed to part9.img?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebadfrog:
If your gonna nvflash part you may as well nvflash all and reset
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mstevens:
Except that I haven't found a way to do backup and restore on 1.2 yet, so she'll lose all of her settings and data.

I may wait until there's an actual problem before doing anything further.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] K J Rad:
Neither, it's recovery.img

It shouldn't hurt to nvflash just the recovery partition. You probably won't be any worse off than you are now and you'll still have the option of a total nvflash anyway.

Make sure you use the 1.2 version of cwr. I think roebeet posted it.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] butchconner:
jasco13,

The NVFLash CWM was my thread and at the time I wrote it there were only 1.1 version

ROMs/upgrades.

I started to put notes in it and update it to say use Roebeets CWM for 1.2

if it still is available anywhere.

BUT -- if you are so borked up you need to get back to stock, I'm not sure

it matters.

I did the CWM via NVFlash with the intention that someone would flash it and

use it to re-partition, etc. Then they would NVFlash the stock bekit 1105 (Version

2638) per the NVFlash Procedure. And then they would OTA to 3588 (which

will overwrite the CWM) and then on to 1.2.4349.

What do you think? Should I leave it alone on that premise?

Maybe I ought to wait a day or two. I read roebeet is working on and nvflash

version of 3588 to go back to as a baseline.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasco13:
i haved used it only to flash cwr to do a partition and then fresh nvflash. That being said I think it is a usefull tool to have instructions to flash any form of recovery you want. I accidentally flashed 1.1 cwr over 4349 and had to do a full nvflash when all i really wanted was the stock recovery back. This process borked my touch screen which was a bit of an ordeal to recover from. The calibration in the 1.2 recovery would have fixed it. Being that 4349 seems to be missing from the updater now I'm not sure what the best answer is. Either way the instructions would need to be uber clear because of the dangers.

Matt

edit... maybe having downloadable nvflash packets for "approved/recommended" applications instead of advising people to edit the standard nvflash which could lead to more problems.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] K J Rad:
Most (if not all) of the factory updates have a recovery image included in the zip. Those can be nvflashed individually back into an otherwise working tablet to recover from this sort of thing.

Hi guys,

First off let me say that i have been*

googleing this for a couple of days and im not one who easily asks a question in a forum but this problem really bugs me...

I have a htc dream or a t- mobile g1 (call it whatever you want). I know this isn't the right place but i couldn't find any other place to ask...

When i press the power button of my devices i see the g1 logo followed by the android logo... Right after the android logo i should see the interface off my phone but it does not. All it is showing me is a black screen. The screen is turned on i can see the glow off it and know how the phone looks like turned off...

First thing i tried

Hard reset. I pressed the home button and the end button. After seeing the exlamation mark i hold alt and press L. Wipe everything (alt w, alt s) tried them all but after rebooting the phone... Black screen...

At this point im stuck because if a hard reset doesn't work then the phone is dead... I presumed but it turned out that i was wrong... If i can get in the bootloader or the rainbow colour *screen (camera + end) i should be able to get it working...

Second thing i tried is download all kinds off update.zip and tried them all and none of them worked... You would think that the update.zip provided by google (1.6) should work. Here's the strange part. It detects the update... Extracts the update... Verifies the update... And the moment it installs the update the installation gets aborted... No other warning

I have read about DREAIMG.nbh but that wont work for me because my sd card is not a gold card and i cant make it a gold card because i cant get in the freaking menu off my phone...

What happened to my phone? It belonged to my nephew of 14 and he wanted to update it to 2.2 without doing some research first so yeah i smacked his head...

Can someone help me with this?
