Who tell you that the bootloader is cracked?

It is just bypassed.

Although I dont know much about wp7,at least I know it is not linux based.

We can only run non stock kernel but noy other computer language things

There is a theme on market makes it like wp7
[XPERIA X10 General] maxidude44:
Yeah, I've tried them but they just aren't as responsive as a real WP7 handset. 1GHz processor doesn't really mean anything when the operating system hasn't been optimised - look at iOS and how snappy it feels even on older generation devices, then look at current generation android devices like the Xperia and you really notice how much it lags. Oh, how I dream of a day when I don't need Advanced Task Killer....:rolleyes:
[XPERIA X10 General] ooidort:
You don't need it.
[XPERIA X10 General] laill:
We still need it even in 2.3.3 in some species.

As the ram of our Xperia is very small,sometimes a kill will make the phone smoother,yes,just sometimes,killing those apps that wont restart

[XPERIA X10 General] fiscidtox:
Well you obviously don't know what you're doing.

I'm on a froyo miui rom and NEVER use it and my phone is always smooth as silk.

If you're still using one after 2.2+, you don't know what you are doing

linux/android memory management is boss

wp7 is not responsive, it just uses long drawn out animations to cover up lag/delay. I think it sucks personally
[XPERIA X10 General] laill:
Perhaps I dont know what I am doing.

Insufficient ram is one of the dead flaw of our Xperia.

Even though you are using Android 2.2+,this flaw is stilo bitting our mind.

Yes,Android's memory manage sys does work.However,it has no doubt that some laggs can be experinced when such mechanism is working,I am talking about heavy use(available memory is smaller than 80mb?).

Killing some non-restart apps does make you feel smoother no matter what roms

You can see tha why wb's rom is very smooth and FAST?

Autokill is implempted in it.

Also,the definition of lag varies among people.

For me,unless the Xperia smooth lik iphone,I wont be satisfied.

Cheers

Ps,Ahh,tricky wp7

have you ever used a mac computer?

Just because ram isn't showing free does not mean it isn't there. It keeps apps background but using no actual ram or cpu so they can be quickly opened. If it needs the ram it is easily freed up for other things instantly.

Free ram sitting there doing nothing is actually a waste on a linux based system
[XPERIA X10 General] laill:
Of cous I have used mac,my home has one mac book pro.

I understand your point.Memory not free doesnot mean it cannt be used.

I am concerning the case that heavy use.

Even system freeze( correct me if I use this word wrong) those low priority apps,however,in such case,too much apps to be freezed will make laggy.

So,try it yourself,open msn talk pro,facebook,xda app,browser,poweramp with playing flac,dsp manager and large game(Heavy use enough?)

In the game,switch back to launcher,wow,shouls be laggy(Sys just do what it supposed to do.

Sometimes the memory manage mechainsm can not been done within in a short time,killing some non-restart may make you feel less laggy.

Compare the smoothness when the free ram is 30mb and 130 mb,give it a try

cheers,

I did, I keep clicking on a bunch of stuff and I'm not getting lag....

Maybe it's the rom you are on? I'm on cob's miui and I literally never experience lag. Then again I haven't on any of the 2.2 or up roms I use. I generally always make full use of the multitasking too
[XPERIA X10 General] Futang44:
I threw up a little bit in my mouth when I heard this. Have you used a 3g iPhone since ios4 came out? Its the slowest smartphone I have ever experience, jailbroken or not. The xperia runs circles around that. Why would you prefer no multitasking or flash over what you have currently?
[XPERIA X10 General] laill:
All the 2.2,2.3 rom here have tasted by me.

Are you really sure that you have completely no lags(not even a very very tiny) when your free mem is below 30?

If so,okay,as I have mentioned,definition of lag varys amomg people><

[XPERIA X10 General] ImS0Raw:
It's not the RAM, it's mostly the CPU + FPS Cap that causes or x10 to be/look slow. SE hasn't put much work in our 2.1 firmware. Only 1.6 was some kind of work.

[XPERIA X10 General] OmegaRED^:
@fiscidtox

100% true... the only reason you would ever need to end a process is due to it eating cpu cycles like a pig, draining the battery.

And a app that runs that bad is not worth it.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ymcc:
hey guys i got a desire hd with CM 7.0.2 on it and i flashed it with Radio_12.48.60.23U_26.08.04.07_M3.

What im curious about is what u guys suggest for radio ?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr_JMM:
I love this question. Nearly as much as I love "What ROM?".

I love it because it shows a dedication to following basic rules.

I love it because I love having to say the same thing over and over.

I love it because one thing this forum needs is ANOTHER thread titled "what radio / ROM". Just can't have too many.

The choice is YOURS and specific to YOUR phone, ROM and kernel. What radio works for one person will fail completely for another.

You just have to try them out.

There is a dedicated thread to radios in the development forum. Please have a look.

My choice is as per my sig but the default cm7 radio was good too.

Sent using witchcraft via XDA Developers App.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ymcc:
I dont agree with that cuz dont everybody got the same hardware ?

if its like that there should be a best kernel for the device.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CHAMAVELI:
Hardware specs might be the same, but there is never any peice of hardware that is identical.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dazlious:
I have taken the radio from the Revolution HD Thread, which is recommend for version 4 ß4
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr_JMM:
Doesn't matter if you agree or not, doesn't stop it from being true.

Besides, the hardware varies slightly especially the CPU for example. Some can handle faster clock speeds than others. Some can accept kernels that other's can't.

The Radio controls, amongst other things, the network reception 2g / 3g / Edge / HSDPA etc. and that will vary from one network provider to another. And as such, a radio that works well for T-Mobile in the UK might not work at all for Vodafone in the UK or T-Mobile in another country.

So no, it doesn't matter that the phones are the same when it comes to choosing the "right" radio.

To make matters worse, some radios have much much better reception but worse battery so AGAIN it's a PERSONAL choice.

Disagree all you like, those are the facts.
[Android Apps and Games] wilbur-force:
Hi,

Looking for an App that will force a loud ringtone (even when on silent) when an email arrives (into Gmail box) from a specific email address (or addresses).

Basically a 'prioiry email' type application. I have had a nosey round the market and various apps seem to offer partial results but nothing concrete.

This is needed for overnight support at work - to make sure that any incidents wake up the on-call guys :D

in other words it needs to be a pretty stable app :p

Any thoughts ? :confused:
[Android Apps and Games] XlAfbk:
https://market.android.com/details?id=org.hubris.gmailnotifierpro&feature=search_result should be the solution, you'll need to set up a rule in gmail to put the mail in a certain label and then use this app
[Android Apps and Games] djeaton:
You might also be able to do something like that with Tasker. I know it is possible to trigger alarms and other changes/activities with SMS messages, so email may be as well.

Htcscroll wasn't working properly.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Cpasjuste:
Hi,

avetny asked me to take a look at the g2x kernel to add OC/UV, so i did build a kernel with oc/uv added. You can read more about the kernel on the o2x thread. With this kernel you should be able to use Pimp My Cpu to manage cpuspeed/voltages on the fly.

I do not own a g2x device so i could not test this kernel, try at your own risk.

g2x-kernel-2.6.32.9-fakeShmoo-cpasjuste.5.zip : db7a11365e8520424f1ed579b666623f

EDIT :

Since i do not have the device, if someone wants to continue the work (fix wifi/bt) you'll find the sources and changes here : https://github.com/Cpasjuste/android_kernel_lg_p999/commits/fakeShmoo

Note that you NEED to add "init.d" support to the kernel initramfs :

Add at the end of the init.rc script :

# Execute files in /etc/init.d before booting
service sysinit /system/bin/logwrapper /system/xbin/busybox run-parts /system/etc/init.d
disabled
oneshot

And maybe the "99complete" script to "/system/etc/init.d" :

#!/system/bin/sh

sync;
setprop mcr.filesystem.ready 1;
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jlevy73:
Thanks a lot for this. Look forward to giving it a go
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jlevy73:
Kernel boots fine, however,it breaks wifi. Will continue testing and see how everything else it
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Cpasjuste:
Arg that's strange, i don't see why wifi would be broken :/
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jlevy73:
It is...when I flashed I say the wifi modules loading.

But wow, this kernel is fast. Smartbench just shot through the roof.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Cpasjuste:
Note that it's not OC by default. Could you try Pimp My Cpu on it to see if it work ? Thanks :)

For the wifi module, i'll wait for "avetny" if he knows anything.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jlevy73:
That's what I mean by wow it's fast. I installed pimp my cpu and have it running @ 1200/300 while I do some benchmarking. Pimp my cpu is working very well.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Cpasjuste:
Ha that's very cool. Many thanks for the "bravery" :)

Just need to fix wifi now :x

I won't be able to do so myself without a device to test so some help will be required. The recovery install script just copy the "drivers/net/wireless/bcm4329/wireless.ko" module to "/system/lib/modules/wireless.ko" on the device. Maybe on the g2x the modules are located somewhere else.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jlevy73:
Let me check to see where the drivers are located.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jlevy73:
Update: Yep it's located in /system/lib/modules

Upon quick look it appears as though the permissions for the .ko file might be incorrect. Let me try something to see if it helps.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Cpasjuste:
Your right, this could maybe be the problem.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] djxcee:
Getting the same wifi problem.

But besides that everything seems to be working fine.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jlevy73:
Tried playing around with the permissions but that didn't seem to help. Also BT appears to be break with this kernel.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] flak0:
Also confirmed wifi is broken with this kernel.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jlevy73:
Can you try turning on BT and seeing if that's broken for you as well? Thanks
[T-Mobile LG G2x] DebauchedSloth:
Is dmesg spitting out anything of interest?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] flak0:
Confirmed. I wonder if we push the original wireless.ko if.it will work?

I can also confirm that the kernel works well with OC/UV but WiFi does not work. Bluetooth isn't working for me either.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] oOo B0XeR oOo:
OK I see. Yeah I feel the noob pain here and dont mean to be "that guy" I'm still learning my way around the site functionality and keep in mind I've been exposed to this linux based platform for less than 2wks and have already figured out more than others might in 2 months. I see that there must be a hundred people asking the same basic quesitons on rooting and I was able to use the info already here successfully attempted it after reading just 2 threads. I assure you guys I will soon be giving back when my hands are ready to go to work. :cool: It's just a matter of taking my PC-based scripting knowledge and adapting to the Linux hurdle.

So some more info to add regarding the OP kernel (OC/UV)... I do have PimpMyCPU but didn't tweak anything yet I wanted to see what the initial experience entailed. I didn't notice a specific improvement but didn't get a change to bench it. I woke up this morning and my P-999 was buggin out bad. A stew of all the "known issues" started happening with the ROM freezing, all network functionality went down, FC on maps.google upon bootup and phone was randomly resetting and turning off. I ended up restoring my backup just before flashing. All issues were gone and boot speed was up. I feel as if the stock 2.6.32.9 kernel works pretty well and I haven't had any issues aside from the battery drain. I have killed all the background processes and I mean I use these apps and need them able to receive pushes.... I'd buy a pager if I wanted to turn my phone offline. I guess I'll just continue to monitor the progress here.

So whats everyone waiting for here... a cyano ROM and matching kernel that's stable? Lastly, that Eagle GB kernel... is that recommended for 2.2 or would I need to flash ROM to GB 2.3? I'll see if I can export a log file to post and see if there's anything blaring out as not right.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jlevy73:
New thread started for Morfic's kernel: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1078049
[T-Mobile LG G2x] gaww:
I you meant Morific's kernel, that is for eagles ROM 1.0.3 (am using it now). The OP kernel I believe is for CM7. Morific's kernel breaks data with eagles 1.0,2 (2,2) - so do not use it on that one.

I have set pimpmycpu for 1400 max with -100UV, I tried more UV, and froze it until I backed off to -100, I am using 500 at default voltage. Only vibration is off (Morific has been too busy to work on it - his boss needs to get his priorities straight - lol). WiFi, Bluetooth, network, and all apps working OK otherwise. Quadrant about 3000. Linpack about 52 (could not break 40 stock).

Note - I have not had any of the "know issues", Only had failure to boot when I tried some earlier and other ROM's. Eagles 1.0.2 (2.2) ROM worked pretty good, as it had the stock apps (bloat removed) but could not OC it as there is not an OC kernel for it.

I was doing great on MT4G with CM7 RC3 (did not have leaked GB then) with faux 1.8 OC lv kernel (set to only 1612 min/max). Had pretty good battery life - especially on standby (same with this phone). I read about others draining their battery on standby - I only loose 506% overnight. All was pretty stable, except CM7 WiFi weak - the GB leaked drivers may fix that there.

What I was really looking forward to was a dual-core optimized ROM like 2.4 was supposed to be - put that has been pushed way out now.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] x-ravin:
This is very exciting, if I wasn't so busy I'd play with it. How's the battery life with the UV?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Texicles:
Just hoping someone will take up this noble cause and get the wifi working on what, otherwise, sounds like a great kernel.

I would do it if I had the first clue about coding this kind of stuff, but I'd really like to see this kernel with working wifi.

Anyone working on this?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] diablos991:
Same here. I would love to see some kernel development on this phone.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] MWBehr:
Looking into it. Things are very different without Touchwiz, that's for sure :D MMS (although I miss the bubbles), Dialer, and Contacts are done, but that's about it so far.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] morfic:
Wifi and BT breaking together is not surprising.

However, they break with every build for me so far, even untouched source + untouched .config.

Now with a device at hand I'll be looking into fixing the breakage before pushing the silicon further.

Still in some flux, once i get what i want it wil be available.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] DebauchedSloth:
Anyone building kernels should try this kernel:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1029799

There are build instructions for the G2X, it works like a charms, overclocks to 1.4ghz cleanly, undervolts, BT & Wifi work well.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] CB620:
That would be great
[T-Mobile LG G2x] flak0:
Can someone build. I will test
[T-Mobile LG G2x] DebauchedSloth:
Attached boot.zip { contains boot image and drivers } and kernel.zip { which contains all the pieces, you will need to pack this one up yourself.)

Note that the boot image is for the latest CM.

Not responsible for damage to your phone, make sure you know what you are doing, always backup first!.

Will try to answer questions but about to head out the door for Google IO.

You overclock with pimpmycpu. I've taken this out to 1.4Ghz and undervolted quite a bit with no ill effects. Has been EXTREMELY stable for me.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] DebauchedSloth:
Note that these are NOT flashable using CWM!

The boot image needs to be applied using the dd approach described in the Eternity kernel thread, then you will need to manually push the drivers.

Edit: Obviously, you need to unzip boot.zip and then dd boot-new.img. If that wasn't clear to you don't even try applying this....and I wouldn't apply it unless you are comfortable with fastboot and have it working.

If you want to build your own boot image, you'll need to grab a boot image, split it, then put the pieces in place and repack. Here's the repack command I used:

It seems that Morfic now has a G2X so we will hopefully start seeing some kernels in the next couple of weeks (not putting any kind of time on it, though, it'll come when it comes).

I'm guessing this would only work for gingerbread then?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] DebauchedSloth:
I'm pretty sure the kernel itself would work fine with stock. Not sure about the wireless - it has to load the firmware and that may have moved. Assuming the firmware is in the same place, or is put in the same place, I think it would work fine. But I have not tested that.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] crx4xharder:
Can't go any higher than 1.3ghz on mine, and even then, I can only run 1150mv or higher or I freeze lol.

How is the noop scheduler vs bfq or cfq?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jlevy73:
@ 1400/1400 it ran smoothly, really just did it to check out some of the benchmarks. Linpack was almost 60. I did notice a bit of heating after about 30 mins probably because I didn't bother with undervolting the kernel.

That being said, pimpmycpu should come with a huge noob alert on it. Letting people manually manipulate voltage is fine if you know what you're doing but we know that's not always the case.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jlevy73:
I haven't spent a lot of time reading up on the scheduler, but from what I gather from the 2x OC thread noop appears to better utilize the dual core processor.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] aim1126:
I figured but decided to give it a try anyways. That's why we have nandroid backups :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] DebauchedSloth:
That's about where I was. With some gentle undervolting, I've been running at 1400 for days at a time with no real heat issues...or battery life changes (then again, with the current driver, battery life is basically guesswork. :))
[T-Mobile LG G2x] hah2110:
Anyone seeing better battery life here?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] DarknessTM:
would love to see this working fully...tried it the other day on my stock froyo...ran smooth as butter...i just use my wifi and bluetooth alot...:( lol.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] crx4xharder:
Yea, cm7 has been quite unstable for me from the start, so I'm not terribly surprised that my processor couldn't handle 1400mhz either. of course after letting the rom settle down, I tried max clock, instant freeze. Battery pull, and went down from there until it was stable. My mt4g could handle 1.8 ghz like a champ, so I guess that was my lucky device of a lifetime! however, I have never really noticed a huge positive side to ocing any phone more than 10% or so over stock. So I usually just keep things lean and mean at stock frequency, with the occasional undervolting... It will be interesting to see how aosp gb runs oced ;-P
