[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
I do work primarily with kernels, but would also be willing to do debloated/deodexed custom roms. If I get a Charge, I'd also try to get nemesis2all's overclocking setup working as well, though separate from most of what I do.

ROMs are relatively easy to work on without a device, as something goes wrong, logcat can almost always tell you what's causing the problem. Kernels are different and it is much harder to troubleshoot any issues without actually having a device, especially if users would want to get Voodoo lagfix working. I already tried this before with the Continuum and it didn't end up so well.

I'm also not trying to scam people into getting me a free device without giving you something in return. I'll at least get you (mostly) working CWM and a debloated/deodexed ROM to start, and try to get some other things setup as well (AOSP Unlock and reboot options come to mind). I was also planning on covering 20-25% of the cost, depending on how much it is retail and what I can get for one of the used devices I currently have here.

Also, to give people an idea of where things stand, I have CWM ready to test right now. If it works, I'll have a deodexed ROM and a debloated/deodexed ROM to post with it, and things can progress from there. I do have all the files needed for custom kernels and also Voodoo lagfix already as well, and can start building as soon as I have a way to test out what is built before posting.

I will attempt to get AOSP/CM built and running, however, I cannot give any guarantees on getting it working. The two people working on it for the Fascinate (jt1134 and punk.kaos) are much more knowledgeable than I am in that arena, and they don't have either fully working for the Fascinate, and may never get it fully functional. Given that the Charge is like an LTE Fascinate, it will likely suffer from the same problems, and given that there are two radios/rils to worry about, will make it that much harder to get things working I'd imagine.
[Verizon Droid Charge] DeathWalking:
Is the source code not helpful at all?
[Verizon Droid Charge] nitsuj17:
samsung does not release as much as say...htc....they release the bare minimum that is required of them...and as kernel/rom builders can attest to the source rarely (if ever) even builds clean and has to be modified

samsung seems to have taken either shortcuts or stupifying decisions in much of their touchwiz software...whether it was programmers trying to look busy or whatever...such as android 1.6 ril being built into the fascinate which shipped with 2.1
[Verizon Droid Charge] RaptorMD:
imnuts, I had no doubts of your intentions, you sold me at hello. I have a passion for all things tech, sometime down the road I will have to try to understand what it takes to make a ROM, why not.

I believe its important for a developer to have the phone they are developing on, this way they can insure debugging and easier fixes and I support your fundraising efforts.

I am still weighing the Droid Charge vs getting an ATT Galaxy S2 or getting the Charge now and trading up for the Galaxy S2 later on Verizon. May 24th isn't too far away for the big Samsung announcement and hopefully its all good news.
[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
I believe I have the lagfix files/scripts all setup to enable Voodoo lagfix for the Charge ;)
[Verizon Droid Charge] DirgeExtinction:
Maybe anyone would be interested in taking advantage of this promotion: http://tinyurl.com/43eeus9

It's mainly aimed for T-Mobile users, but customers of other rival companies can take advantage of it as well. I was planning on using this promotion, cancel Sprint, then go back to Verizon for a subsidized Droid Charge.
[Verizon Droid Charge] RaptorMD:
What exactly is the Voodo lagfix, does it change the file system from nfs to ext4, is it a kernel fix, something else? I figured it clearly speeds something up but wanted to know more.
[Verizon Droid Charge] gwlaw99:
It is a custom kerna that changes the file system from nfs to ext4 on the Galaxy S line of phones. Takes 15-20 minutes.
[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
Voodoo Lagfix is a set of scripts to backup various partitions (/system, /data, /cache, and /dbdata) and convert them from RFS to EXT4. RFS is a proprietary file system from Samsung that is essentially FAT32 with some added things for error correction and recovery from what I know. It works, but isn't so great for I/O throughput. EXT4 handles things much better, and greatly increases the I/O throughput, hence the huge jump in performance people see in Quadrant between Voodoo/no-Voodoo.
[Verizon Droid Charge] RaptorMD:
Thank you all. So once we do the Voodo, we do so well (Mel Brooks) we will have a much better quadrant, or zippier device.

So I'm sold but won't be able to get one until tomorrow.
[Verizon Droid Charge] davey11:
On my fascinate, what I noticed was a general smoothness in the ui, like switching between homescreens. Also when scrolling long lists like in Tib, it doesn't stutter, just smooth scroll. My quadrant score went from mid 800 to 1500.

The voodoo sound control was an added benefit. Whe you dl voodoo sound app from the market and tweak the settings, the music play gets alot better.
[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
For

most

things you do on a daily basis, it doesn't matter if you're on RFS or EXT4. Where the lagfix helps the most is for things that have a lot of I/O, like news readers and media scanner (which runs on every boot) are sped up.
[Verizon Droid Charge] jism31:
Whats the ETA on your release and instructions for lagfix imnuts?
[Verizon Droid Charge] RaptorMD:
Good to know. Since this is a new kernel will it also incorporate the ability to overclock as well using SetCPU, perhaps we can get 1.2Ghz or so out of it.
[Verizon Droid Charge] tkdboi:
JT!!!! I'm so happy to see ur name on the Droid Charge thread :) This means AOSP Goodies very very soon. Just gotta wait till JT gets bored...LOL Thats wen miracles happen. JT I hope u and punk.kaos get the camera and camcorder working for CM7 Fascinate :)

I didn't forget about u imnuts lol I will be expecting booossss kernels from u hehe
[Verizon Droid Charge] Nusince:
If you are interested in working on CM for the charge I would strongly suggest you get in touch with Slayher because you are going to be fighting the exact same uphill battle he is fighting with the ril on the TB. This hybrid CDMA/LTE radio setup is a real hack job, and is compounded by the fact that no one has the source for the modified ril necessary to make everything play nice together.
[Verizon Droid Charge] diverbelow:
subscribe as I am also interested in installing the voodoo kernel on my new Charge.
[Verizon Droid Charge] soba1:
Perhaps; I bet you can get 1.2ghz out of this thing.

One request can u make it simple stupid to install :rolleyes:
[HTC Inspire 4G] efrommel:
I am looking to trade my inspire for a moto atrix 4g because my dad is going to get the thunderbolt and i want a front facing camera to video call him.

I m looking for a almost new/ no scatches atrix. My HTC inspire is in a Otterbox from the beggining and has no scratches. Is used for 2 months now.
[HTC Inspire 4G] cavsoldier19d:
Don't do it. The front facing camera on the atrix sux...very poor quality to the point where its not worth it. And chances are, much like most atrix owners, you will find yourself trading it back in for an inspire. You might as well save yourself the trouble.
[HTC Inspire 4G] efrommel:
Ohh ok. So i may need to see if i can change it to an iphone or other android with ffc
[HTC Inspire 4G] cavsoldier19d:
You my friend are in a pickle. With att, at the moment, if u absolutely need a front facing camera, its either the iPhone or the atrix. I wouldn't go with either. Instead, if I were you, I would wait for the realease of the Samsung infuse and see how its ffc is, as well as the phone itself.
[HTC Inspire 4G] slimslim:
Yup, don't do it, just 'cause he sais so. Or just go in the att store take the atrix and open the camera app, switch to front cam and you'll be pretty pleased with the quality. Is more than enough for my atrix and especially for videocalling over att's 4G network.

Edit: btw, both iPhone and Atrix have same resolutions.
[HTC Inspire 4G] stickbo:
I would honestly get the iPhone over the atrix . Go use both for an extended period if you can. The lag of the atrix is annoying as hell and yet to be cracked. The iPhone runs smoother and you can jailbreak it, it also has amazing games and the battery lasts longer. Try them both and get what You like. also you will ne amazed at how much you DON'T use the facetime/videochat. At least most people I know don't use it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] chongwj:
why trade for sth worse? :confused:
[HTC Inspire 4G] onthezone:
Sounds like a good excuse to get a tablet lol but I have heard too many bad things about the atrix.

Hi. Have you flashed this rom already?

any improvements iver 351?

Cheers
[Streak 5 General] flamewave:
yes,feels good
[Streak 5 General] TheManii:
354 seems to be similar to 347

Uses old stage ui

havnt found any other notable changes in a prelim examination

Recovery is here http://mirror2.streakdroid.com/manii/354/recovery.img

354 might now be available though "check for updates" until it lands on the main dell ota server.

i dont know what dell-ins.com is, but that isnt where their normal ota updates are stored

(this is likely a legit update nonetheless, as so far it's impossible to create a fake update that would work without having access to their computers/staff)
[Streak 5 General] altugk:
File size looks much smaller than 351 or 354 (if I managed to download properly)

190Mb vs 137Mb.

Does it match your downloads? if that is so what is not included in this rom?

Thanks
[Streak 5 General] jaydiamonds:
I'm currently on AT&T stock 340. Is it safe to update? Any differences?

Can someone who flashed 354 tell me if there is a working Greek language pack (not chineze greek :-)?

351 scrwed Greek localization. On 318 was fine and I 'm about to go back to 318+perfmod.

Dude didn't mean it that I meant how would I know I check the language listing it did list Greek but there are other language letters was hoping he said id you see something this than 354 has Greek.
[Streak 5 General] freco:
OK guys. No problem. As far as there is greek language inside, I will try it.

I was hopping that a greek user tried it to tell me if greek support is correct. Cause on 351 is a mess.

Thanks anyway.

EDIT: I tried it and there is no greek language in 354.

Currently i have 347, 00 retail unlocked, on at&t will 354 flahs and work fine even though its a hong kong rom? what about 353? will either of these be locked or will they they remain unlocked like me current device. rom?

thanks
[Streak 5 General] SiliconBug:
This version is focused on Traditional Chinese users (Taiwan & Hong Kong), so Traditional Chinese is the default language, and Google pinyin IME is the default IME.
[Streak 5 General] :
So I guess 351 is the latest retail... I just worry it s sluggish compared to 347...

Thanks
[Streak 5 General] rainser:
I have the same preloaded unlocked 347 image with my newly purchased Streak. I tried to flash 322 HK image and 354 HK image. In both cases mine stuck at the Dell Logo (waited over 30 min). The steps are:

1. flash the corresponding recovery image (power + shutter) connected to PC fastboot

2. remove battery and boot into recovery mode (volume up/down + power), Rom renamed to Update.pkg on SD card root.

3. after ROM flashed it's automatically reboot, then stuck at Dell Logo

Any ides?
[Streak 5 General] big:
Flash streakmod, copy superuser.zip to sdcard and install.
[Streak 5 General] rainser:
Also if I remove the battery and reboot while stuck, it entered emergency copy mode and restored the 347 recovery image.

That seems to be the situation I am running into. Too bad the key link in the article http://bbs.zhangku.com/thread-13798-1-1.htm is no longer available. Since S大190新ROM is in ZIP and the 354 ROM is in PKG, I wonder which specific recovery image was used to install 354 nafter 190.

This rom can use for US version? My streak is come from US, now use baseband

Can I use this rom?
[Streak 5 General] StaNdArD:
Ohhh I done it. But cannot!

After installing finished, then stop at Dell logo, cannot boot it. I'd re-do but still the same.

How should I do?
[Streak 5 General] SiliconBug:
354 is fine for US Streak. It comes with less language packages and less annoyed trial software.

(compare with 351)

[Streak 5 General] :
This just happened to me when trying to move from 347 to 351 the only thing i could do was flash streakmod and then streak droid 1.9 so im still on bb347 running streakdroid 1.9 now...
[Streak 5 General] wolverine9827:
354 Looks good so far!

So far this is working for me.... I went from 351 to 353 (AT&T) to 354. I hate that AT&T takes out the Hotspot stuff and locks the market. Once all my stuff is re-downloaded and sync'd up, I'll try to root it and put on ADW EX on and get back my screens and widgets....

351 had a few bugs with Bluetooth and AVRCP which I use a LOT with my Altec Lansing Backbeat 903 headset... plus it was bigtime bloated with lots of crap that I spent way too much time on getting rid of... 354 looks to have a lot less to weed through....

Anyone know any super secret tricks to getting rid of Dell's StageUI? It sucks up 20M of memory even when running ADW EX as my default launcher! ug! :mad:
[Streak 5 General] quazimojo:
When rooted you can run Titanium backup pro and just freeze all the Dell stage stuff.

Or you can use Root explorer and uninstall anything Dell Stage related.

This ROM can use for US version? My streak use baseband 00US Baseband GAUAB1A135000-US
[Streak 5 General] mid_life_crisis:
I have 351 and my Streak will not send sound to my car stereo. Could this be due to one of the bugs you're talking about?

So to summarize, this build

1) Has less junk preloaded

2) Works fine in the US even though it is a Hong Kong release

3) Has some bluetooth fixes

Anything else relevant?
[Streak 5 General] cingulartreo:
I agree

1) YES!!!!!

2) Actually call quality is little better than 351.

3) Hmm, not sure

It also seems snappier when doing things in the software. And most important it is way faster than 351 on receiving calls. The screen didn't respond on 351 until like the 3rd ring.
[Streak 5 General] scdsone:
ive been using djsteves updates since 1.5.1 with no problems at all & i use runkeeper app for my GPS tracking daily

it was taking between 2 to 7 minutes to get a GPS lock & i thought that was how long it took but i was told on irc last night it should only take secs

so i installed this update today & what do you know i got a GPS lock in 40 secs yippee!!
[Streak 5 General] BlueCrystal:
Since this seems to work on US basebands, has anybody noticed if the market and internet disconnections been fixed? I know a lot of people had.issues where E/H would just cut out when using the market (including myself).
[Streak 5 General] mid_life_crisis:
I keep installing the update.pkg. I've done this once before, but I'm apparently forgetting something. Do I need to rename the update.pkg to something else so the process will find superuser.zip instead? What am I forgetting?
[Streak 5 General] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
You forgot to install Streakmod or Clockworkmod to replace the stock recovery image after you updated. Or if you did install those, you let the Streak completely reboot instead of holding down volume up and volume down after flashing the recovery image.
[Streak 5 General] mid_life_crisis:
I loaded recovery.img but when I get the screen, the only option that looks relevant is to install update.pkg.

I'm pretty sure I'm supposed to do something else here to get the option to install the zip, but I don't remember what.
[Streak 5 General] fards:
press 2 then wait
[Streak 5 General] wolverine9827:
I noticed that it's generally faster too and seems a bit more stable as well with a little less lag. ADW seems much snappier too.... and call clarity both with and without bluetooth is better too.... so far I am liking this build the best with 345 coming a close 2nd..... 351 gave me heartburn! :(
[Streak 5 General] wolverine9827:
I've run into that too... and forgot to rename anything I had named Update.zip on the sdcard to something else... then rebooted into fastboot mode and flashed the recovery of choice (I use CWMod) and then rebooted in Recovery mode and chose item 2... wallah... :)
[Streak 5 General] mid_life_crisis:
I actually liked Car Mode, or whatever they called it.

The Chinese symbols constantly popping up is more than a little annoying.

Anyone figure out how to make them go away completely?
[Streak 5 General] SamSHUN:
rooting a STREAK is painful for me,

mine is now rooted and with Steve's 1.9.0,

I am not sure if I should try this pkg?
[Streak 5 General] mid_life_crisis:
I finally got Superuser installed. Turns out I needed a different recovery than what I was using.

Now the problem is that I can't uninstall the factory bloatware. I tried four different apps for it. One wouldn't run at all, two only list apps I downloaded, and the fourth is listed under Superuser as having Root access but when I try to uninstall the bloatware I get a "No Root Access" message.

What are others using to clean this thing up?
[Streak 5 General] mr_tris:
It's probably one of the apps you tried first but Titanium Backup worked well for me removing the junk.I hope you get it sorted, some of the stuff you get on phones is so irritating! :)
[Streak 5 General] palace35mm:
HI All,

did anyone try to uninstall the DELL STAGE cos when i tried it my phone got stuck on the DELL LOGO after a restart and had to re install the whole thing again?
[Streak 5 General] BlueCrystal:
it shouldnt be too bad. Update to 354, go into fastboot and flash clockwork and superuser, then but steves on. I havent tried with 354 yet but that worked for me after screwing up with 351 and having to restore with qdl.
[Streak 5 General] mid_life_crisis:
Still not working. I have Superuser installed for Root access and it isn't able to grant root to programs that ask for it. The odd thing is that Superuser thinks it has granted root access to Titanium Backup but when you run TB it pops up a message that it couldn't get root access, which is exactly what I got with the last app manager.

How is everybody else rooting this thing?

Edit: Okay, I searched for Superuser and found that for it to work you have to have either a custom rom (which this is not) or already have root access. I didn't realize that Superuser is only for managing root access once you have it.

How do you root this release?

Edit2: Okay I got it. It needed Busybox. Once I got that installed everything appears to be working.
[Streak 5 General] shinydesert:
Thanks for the updates.

Were you able to get ri od the chinesse characters?
