[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sgsI9003:
@bala_gamer

I only installed And memory & I don't find it freeing more memory than other apps which Ihave been using so I uninstalled my apps & then checked it with And memory its still the same (always 135-200mb free) and that too you have to do it manually the auto setting even after applying do not work.

Seems i am doing something wrong with this app & more over since i installed it something is eating up my battery even in ideal night it consumed 7% where as before it was 2% in the night.

I test it for 1 more day & see if i can get 300mb as you said but I doubt that freeing 300mb will last any longer it will free up & after 2-3 mins the apps again start & would consume it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nitindes:
Hi friends,

Is there any way out thr to free up memory without rooting the device , i hv tried few task killer app from market but every time i kill the processes it restart automatically .. I m really wired up with this behavior.. Also great help if anyone share links to root the device from gb 2.3.5. Is it possible to root without flashing new firmware??
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] shiek403:
so i had root on my moto droid back befor the 2.2 through z4 root

but afterword... z4 just sorta stopped working, and iv lived without root now for a while but i dont want to anymore, i wanna overclock sooo bad again.

so my question is, has anyone released another z4 ish 1 touch root solution that will work in this post 2.2 world??
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] ccrows:
A lot of people around here use "Easy Root". Unfortunately it's not free, but you can get it as low as a $.99 to get full access.

By far it's the cleanest Root/Unroot that I used for any of my Android phones. Works on both Droid and Milestone and does work on Froyo. If you end up going that route, you'll probably be best doing a factory restore before starting to help clean up whatever Z4Root left over.

If you still want to go the Z4 Route, I got nothing but still wish you the best... :)
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] phlppk:
have you looked over here? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=912490

they also mention Universal Androot
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] staveandor:
I used SuperOneClick found here at XDA, and my root was painless. It took about 2 minutes.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] shiek403:
thanks for the help so far... but

neither z4 or androot worked for my droid...

idk if there is a difference between milestone and droid, but neither of them workedd both said failed.

any other ideas??
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] phlppk:
There is always the possibility to root manualy. I have a milestone (not droid) - Don't know if this also applies to you.

You have to flash your a vulnerable recovery via RSD Lite and root via OpenRecovery (Androidian). More info here:

I also can't get my X8 working with Barnacle. Its an E51i running official (rooted) 2.1 update 1 build 2.1.1.A.0.6 My netbook PC is running windows 7 starter.

Barnacle installs okay and when started the PC sees the nework but gets stuck 'identifying barnacle' and says no network access.

I've found a load of info regarding the X10 elsewhere on this forum:

But I can't get any combo of these settings to work on my X8 and I haven't been able to find any real answers in this or other X8 specific threads. So can anyone provide some step-by-step noob-proof instructions, like those above but for the X8?
[XPERIA X8 General] Sparks1337:
um okay ignore my previous post - I left my phone switched off for a few minutes and rebooted it and barnacle is working fine. I used the settings as outlined above, with a five-character WEP key

[XPERIA X8 General] Compwxr:
God! look at those neons at topic "WITH THAT UGLY CAPS LOCK", and I can't say it's better than your name...

As a user said before, tether doesn't work natively due to kernel limitations, with problems as yours I would advice to test another rom, or Full wipe / Fix permissions in xrec.

[Xperia Arc Android Development] Blagus:
Hi. I'd like to announce you that I'll

try

to port CM7 to Arc.

I need some people to test it too as I don't have Arc.

It'll be system.img flashable via fastboot. So, ANYONE?

Of course that you need unlocked bootloader because there's no other way of flashing system.img file except fastboot!

Note: be prepared to most probably lose all data to ensure that CM7 will run on clean system (to avoid any additional bugs).

Brick recovery:

If CM7 system.img ever bricks your phone, simply connect it to the fastboot and flash Bin4ry's rooted system.img (easiest way), or reflash with FlashTool.

Some kind of global EULA. Breaking these terms will reflect as stopping releasing progress to the public on some time.

*Do not remind me about posting my progress. I know that I have to post progress when there will be any, I'm not stupid.

*Do NOT ask me to switch to 2.3.4 CM7 because there are only nightly builds for a few devices.

*Do

NOT

mirror my files once they appear. Reasons:

1) With no mirrors I can keep track of download counter.

2) With no mirrors I ensure that all people download latest release, not some outdated file from mirror.

3) Mediafire is FREE and it has NO DOWNLOAD WAITING.

Everything I publish will be in this Mediafire folder. Again, don't mirror.

Update - 16th May: I have plans to make a custom kernel too. Wait for further info ;)

Update - June 2011:

Jerpelea has taken over CM7 development for Arc. FreeXperia project expanded to Xperia Arc and Play. Play will be maintained by me. Arc project closed - thread closed.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Step666:
If you're happy to explain things in terms so simple a 5 year old can understand them, I'm happy to test for you...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Blagus:
Do you have SIM-unlocked phone, and can you unlock bootloader?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Step666:
I've already unlocked the bootloader.

And rooted via Bin4ry's method.

I'm working 12.00-16.00 (BST) tomorrow, then off 'til 12.00 (BST) on Wednesday, so I should be around quite a bit over the next few days.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Rithina:
I don't mind to being a tester for you unless you mind I am doing this during asian time zone :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Blagus:
Great!!! Same way as you flashed Bin4ry's system.img, you'll flash this one too, so don't worry ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Step666:
Sounds fine to me.

I'll spend this evening getting my Defy ready to use again, just in case...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] chriscpritchard:
I'll be happy to test - I can also help with debugging and possibly porting too (no actual dev experience, but do have the ability to read and understand things, and have plenty of linux experience). I'll be able to test over the next 3 weeks, but I do have university exams, and they take priority obviously. Once those 3 weeks are over I'll have lots of spare time for a couple of months, so can help properly then! My phone is sim and bootloader unlocked, but not rooted at the moment.

Obviously, this is my main phone, so just for clarity, not doing anything that ca affect the ability of the phone to go into fastboot mode, correct?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Blagus:
Worst thing that can happen is that you'll have to reflash rooted system.img by Bin4ry. But better safe than sorry ;)

Correct.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Step666:
Well, knowing me luck... ;)

I know there shouldn't be any risk, it'd just be simpler for me to have a fully functional phone to use while the Arc is being tinkered with.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Blagus:
Yes, if that's acceptable for you to have Arc for testing only, then cool! :D

It's always better to have backup phone so you have time to fix another one.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] chriscpritchard:
In that case, I think I'll buy myself a cheap £10 payg phone from the local supermarket, just in case - I can stick my current SIM in it while developing/testing.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Blagus:
I hope you both are ready for the data loss. It's necessary, to ensure that ROM will run on clean phone and avoid any bugs possible due to installed application and user settings.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Step666:
I have Titanium Backup, I'll be fine ;)

edit: to be honest, so long as I don't lose my text messages, which I back up regularly anyway, I don't really care about the rest.

I don't use my Arc for music, I have a proper Walkman for that. I basically haven't used the Arc's camera because it's a long time since I last had a phone with a good camera, so I'm unused to it now and I can always re-download apps...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] rustynuts34:
Good luck guys nice to see a bit of community co-operation, hope all goes well :-)

I shall follow the goings on with anticipation
[Xperia Arc Android Development] chriscpritchard:
Can redownload apps - it's a new phone, so don't have any text messages and music is all on my PC contacts, emails etc are all saved on google's servers and don't have any photos!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Blagus:
Thanks a lot :)

So, I can count on rustynuts34 too?

I hope you have MSN, Yahoo!, gTalk, or meet on IRC (MSN preferably) so we can discuss faster once I start with porting (that should be in next few days) ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] rustynuts34:
Would love too but need my phone all day, im more of a night time Rom flasher lol I know nothing of devving or linux would not know where to start. But wish you guys all the luck in the world with it :-) sorry I wont be able to help much :-(

I added you on MSN.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Juevani:
Count me in :D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] solidd_swa:
Why start from the Droid version ? Wouldn't a snapdragon version be make more sense?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Step666:
Screen resolution.

Only Motorola and SE use 480x854 screens, so everything in the Droid version will be designed to fit the Arc's screen.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] l3ush:
****.

Bootloader of my Arc is closed (Movistar).

When the bootloader of my Arc is Open, I can help you ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] FrAsErTaG:
may i ask why you are going to use the sholes as a base?

Wouldn't the DHD be easier to port from? apart from screen resolution and size the hardware is much closer to the DHD?

this question is not meant to sound insulting, just wondering?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] festa20:
I was a dhd used in sure every one who has the arc came from the dhd lol and count me in im guna do bootloader tmoz
[Xperia Arc Android Development] chriscpritchard:
The screen resolution's probably the hardest thing - the drivers/kernel is available on the SE website, and the code seems very comprehensive!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] waanz:
Count me in.

I've got an Arc as a secondary phone which is a perfect candidate for testing.

That phone's got such a great hardware and form factor but it's software makes it slow (except the launcher which is a bomb)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Rithina:
waanz, i think OP wants testers that fit for his time zone. We probably wont stand a chance :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] keylight65:
I'm ready, if you want.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] whoops_dk3:
You can count me in as well, for at least 2-3 months. I do have a little experience in software development, but my day job is network design (from which I have 2-3 months leave from due to an operation).

I have a Arc as a secondary phone, which is more than willing to be flashed over and over again :D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Blagus:
ROM will be based on DHD CM7 due to hardware and APKs and framework will be from Droid's CM7 due to screeb resolution. Thanks for the tips! ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Blagus:
Progress: I've downloaded Bin4ry's rooted img, and CM7 for DHD and Droid. I'll start looking for lib dependencies and start porting DHD's CM7. APKs will be used from Droid's release as it has same FWVGA resolution.

But today I'm a bit busy (party :p) so I won't be doing too much of work. Testers, expect system.img in next few days ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ArcOnFire:
With modded ROM, can I expect the stock camera app behave appropriately? I'm starting to dislike vignette right now because the over 5 megs file size with less detail compared to stock's snaps.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] sim-value:
Would you mind a tester with a Play ?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Step666:
I think that would require a whole separate system.img to be designed, so it would only serve to slow down the initial work.

I'm sure that once development progresses a bit, adapting the Arc version of CM7 for the Play should be reasonably simple due to the similarities in the hardware but to begin with, I'm guessing that focusing on just the one would be best.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] IseeBrickedPhones:
Please ensure that the MTP via WiFi is also ported across.

http://tinyurl.com/6zfqhrd
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Lokifish Marz:
I have received a couple requests via the website already but if CM7 Xperia Arc can be made ready for everyday use would you like to see the Evo Desktop PC project ported over? So as not to take over the thread I'll post a proper thread in Themes and Apps.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Blagus:
Thanks for all your requests, I'll consider them ;)

Also, I will try to port it to Play as well once I'll do enough work on Arc - let's concentrate to Arc right now, shall we? ;)

Currently, I belive this porting should give much better result than on 2010 Xperia line as new Xperias already use 2.3 kernels - 2.6.32/2.6.35 so MTP shouldn't be hard to enable.

And, I currently don't have plans to make my own kernel for Arc - mostly because I don't have it, unfortunately...

If you need another tester I'll have a crack, can always fall back on the X10 for a while .. god i sound like a Sony fan-boy!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Blagus:
Since I don't have original boot.img, I'll use ramdisk.tar+chargemon trick to replace ramdisk on boot.

I'm making new chargemon right now, which will consist of ramdisk unpacking and offline charging.

Tomorrow I'm starting looking for lib dependencies. Expect first system.img in next few days.

[Xperia Arc Android Development] Blagus:
Note to everyone: I've decided to post testing system.imgs to public immediately. Testers will get it a little bit sooner, however, just to check if it boots and is it stable enough for public release.

Definition of stability: functionality of phone excluded. Stability includes random reboots frequency, smoothness, etc. Functionality is another term. However functionality will be considered too when testing.

Basic functionality of ROM for calling it alpha-1: GSM - calls and SMS (should also include data connectivity), touchscreen, brightness - stable brightness means turning screen back on after phone is locked and screen shut down.

That's enough to have a basically functional phone.

Rest is reserved for future.

First testing release should be available on Friday (sorry but I had a busy day today so I didn't have time to develop ROM).
