Chech out xda wiki dell page there you can find all the Rom to download and the recovery.
[Streak 5 General] rss3183:
have you named it "Update.pkg" or "update.pkg" coz the first will work and the second will not .

You will have to use capital U otherwise the phone will not recognise it
[Streak 5 General] TheManii:
capitalization usually shoulnt matter, it works fine as 'update.pkg'
[HD2 General] crisiscore_08:
I am currently dual booting WP7 and android but a lot of the magldr and a lot of the SD Magldr builds are not as well built as the nand versions. Should i just remove wp7 and stick with android nand? Cotulla isnt going to release magldr 1.14 any time soon so i dont know what to choose till then.
[HD2 General] CH3NO2:
i'll just tell you ahead of time the best choice for what to choose should come from what you feel you like best/what best suits your needs and wants from the phone.

you'll receive a lot of opinions but your opinion matters most because its your phone you're dealing with.

now if you want an opinion. here is my opinion.... use android. nothing else needed to be said from my opinion
[HD2 General] digiholic:
+1

and...

+1
[HD2 General] orangekid:
I'd continue to dual-boot, American Android and some of the other SD builds are just as good as nand android builds, so why not keep playing with both?

True "a lot" aren't as good, but some are even better, because you can create real 1gb data.img files that never run out of space and you can update/switch builds easier.

If you don't like any of the sd builds then yeah I guess go to Android NAND, sounds like you've already made up your mind.
[HD2 General] st0rmik:
There are many of good sd android builds but question is if wm7 has something what is irretrievable for you. I was used to running on win mobile 6.5 and now I am fully satisfied with nand android.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tmetanes:
Hey guys

first thx for helping, im thinking about buying the Experia Arc with the androod 2.3 installed but im kinda afraid cuz very soon the android 3 will come out so i want to ask ya is it possible to update the 2.3 to the new version ?

cheers
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bahnburner:
3.0 is not available for phones, it's tablet only. 3.1 (Ice Cream Sandwich) was only announced today, and won't be released until October at the earliest, so no one is going to have any information on porting it to any device at this point.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dastin1015:
Actually 3.1 is an update to Honeycomb which is soon to be released to the Xoom. Ice Cream Sandwich is 2.4 which includes mixed features from Honeycomb and Gingerbread. Also Honeycomb has been ported to some devices. I got one to work on the HTC Hero, although every port lacks almost every feature because it is from the SDK image and not source as source has yet to be released.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tmetanes:
thanks for your replays,

but still whenever the new version come out will i be able to update my Os ? used to have X1 before and to put an official 6.5 was a pain so is it the same with android ? or i can always update to the latest version

thanks again
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] moneymike55:
The Cm7 development tree is gradually incorporating ice cream/honeycomb features into 2.3.4 with "tablet tweaks" while we're all waiting for aosp. Not very many options currently exist besides moving the status bar to the bottom, but the soft buttons are being merged now and most devices currently have 3.0 ports that just need the actual source to be released now to get things like phone.apk and wifi drivers working. I wouldn't be surprised to see a rom dev have a fully working port for the arc the day after google releases the 3.0/2.4 aosp, so I would base your buying decision on the performance of the arc compared to other 2.3 devices currently out or being released this summer.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dastin1015:
Upgrading the Android OS is always going to be 'hard' if it is not an official upgrade by the distributors of your given phone. If you are rooted, which for some phones is a difficult process, you can upgrade, albeit that it's not official for your phone.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] JSKershaw:
From what Sony is announcing you will get the update to whichever version of Android is available past version 2.3 faster than they have released updates in the past. If this is true don't worry so much about the version of Android you're running since 2.3 is actually a very much complete package (in my opinion) and you can also say the same for version 2.2. Anything 2.1 and below is not even worth considering.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phydo:
hey, for anyone who cares, I copied invisiblek's kernel and dropped the kernel voltages to the same as chad's would be with -75 mv patch from -viper-. I did no real work here. EDIT: Also Chad's Incredikernel-sense.

Note: My reason for doing this is that these don't have sysfs. My next attempt will be at adding sysfs to invisiblek's, then the sense one. This is only for my learning to mess with android a little bit. I've taken my share from the devs, donated some cash, now it's time for me to give back a little.

if you use it and feel like donating to anyone, please donate to invisiblek. I'd also like to thank chad0989 for getting me started on compiling, and guiding me a lot. if you like anything here, please thank him for being an awesome help. I think invisiblek's kernel is perfect, just uses a little more voltage than I got on Incredikernel. so I'm trying this out. I'll use it through tomorrow, and if it doesn't work right on my phone, I'll change it. This is based off invisiblek's v3 kernel.

Please note that these are settings that worked for my phone. by no means does this mean that it'll work for yours. If you want me to modify it, I'll do it for you if I have the time. If you want support, don't bother invisiblek. I don't want my endeavor to become his burden. post here or contact me on twitter @foodferthought.

download here. WIFI/CIFS Enabled

NOTE GUYS: Okay, wifi and cifs working. sorry for my newbishness. And thanks chad0989 for being so helpful with helping a newbie android dev (or hacker, or just an android noob, whatever I am) with getting a compiler working, and figuring out stupid stuff.

Next up I'm going to mess with chad's incredikernel for sense lowering voltages, and I'm going to try hacking a sysfs for voltages on it. if it works I'll come back and try on this one. I haven't coded C in years (college dropout), so I might be slow but I'm learning. I was proud I even found the havs voltage file on my own. the linux kernel always boggled me outside menuconfig.

LOW VOLT Incredikernel for sense

http://www.bleedle.com/kernel/lowvoltIncredi32.zip
[Droid Incredible Android Development] POQbum:
Thanks for the work. Do you think it's possible for you to undervolt chad's Sense kernel a little lower than it is now?

Cheers!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phydo:
I suppose I could. I don't want to be people's slave for compiling, but it doesn't have a sysfs where you can do it? do you have root explorer?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] POQbum:
no his latest sense kernel doesn't have sysfs only his later AOSP ones do. So there's no way I can do it through root explorer. That's why I was hoping you could tweak the voltages since you already have experience with doing the same to another kernel.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phydo:
If you can find the git repository I'll do it, is it just any froyo kernel of his?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phydo:
I'll compile it tomorrow if you can find the source. the problem is, I don't see it on chad's github. I dunno, if you search around you might find it. I have to get to sleep (east coast, I work early in the warehouse). I'll check this regularly if I can.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] chad0989:
https://github.com/Chad0989/incredikernel

is my old sense kernel

If you want to toss the sysfs interface in take a look at this commit:

https://github.com/Chad0989/android_kernel_common/commit/15d469a1aabc76d549c94bc7150678fe808a51d8

Note that acpuclock-qsd8x50.c was formerly called acpuclock-scorpion.c in 2.6.32
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phydo:
hey chad how do I compile the wireless modules? I tried the gentoo method I think it was make ARCH=arm modules && modules_install but that just borked on me
[Droid Incredible Android Development] smtom:
I'll give it a go - thanks!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] chad0989:
They compile by themselves, you just have to copy them manually where you want them.

The wireless module is at:

drivers/net/wireless/bcm4329/bcm4329.ko

and if you want cifs support (some people do so I include it) the module is at:

fs/cifs/cifs.ko

If you're using anykernel drop them in system/lib/modules. You have to replace them whenever you compile a new kernel, if the versions differ, the modules won't work.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] phydo:
Ok I checked in that folder last night and didn't see them but ill have to check again. Thanks for all your help!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phydo:
Kay guys this seems pretty freaking stable. 24 hours, no reboots, no random app closures...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] SomeGuyDude:
Looking forward to having it with WiFi ability!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phydo:
I should be able to add it after work today
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phydo:
But I promise I wont sleep tonight without it cuz I want it too
[Droid Incredible Android Development] POQbum:
Phydo, you think it's still possible you'll add sysfs or lower voltages in chads?

:rolleyes:

Reading through the thread I'm not sure if you've decided to go and help tweak it or not.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phydo:
Yes I will try. If you want to let me know what voltages you want ill do them, or I can try the set for this kernel that worked for me. When I get home I gotta put wifi in this kernel then ill work on that. Promise ;)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phydo:
WIFI / CIFS enabled. I don't know how to modify thread name to show that. hope somebody appreciates it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phydo:
POQbum are you available at all? I kind of need a tester on sense for what you requested. please don't be too hopeful but it *may* work
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phydo:
hey chad do you have a config you used for sense or do i need to make one?

Nevermind I made one. uhh, I need to do some debugging here I'll need a little bit lol
[Droid Incredible Android Development] RegnierD:
If you want someone to flash test builds for Sense, I'm already using his Sense kernel and wouldn't mind pushing experimental builds onto my phone. I'm usually bored anyway. Lol
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phydo:
Cool! I just need to do some messing around still
[Droid Incredible Android Development] chad0989:
I just sent you a bunch of messages.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] POQbum:
Yep, I'll be a tester- PM me if you wanna

And without sysfs I haven't been able to tweak the voltages so I won't be of any help there. However if you really need to I can reflash CM7 and chad's newer kernel and try tweaking the voltages there, then report back with those and *hope* they will work the same on the Sense kernel.

It'd be ideal if you could add sysfs to chad's sense kernel, but either way I will be happy and I'm sure several unknowing people will be happy as well after it's released and any bugs are out.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phydo:
I can put the voltages on it the same as Chad's also kernel -75mv additional which worked for this last kernel. I'm messing with sysfs but its tricky. Can't wait to be home at 8:30 est
[Droid Incredible Android Development] POQbum:
Cool man I'll check back here later tonight to see if you've had a chance to do it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phydo:
Okay guys I'm compiling the uv sense kernel now. I haven't figured out sysfs, but I promise I'll be messing with it. got some pads and pens today to keep track of what I'm doing, since kernel stuff boggles me. If anyone uses this stuff, reply and let me know, otherwise I might just mess around on my own instead of maintaining a thread :P

Update: Incredikern for sense is up on original post

Btw I think I can do sysfs fine, but I'm tired today. I need to go at it later with a clear head. Chad gave me some advice so ill try
[Droid Incredible Android Development] POQbum:
Thanks, I'm trying out the UV kernel now. Will run it until I run into any problems.

Could you let me know how much lower the voltages are from:

http://chad0989.dyndns.org/2.6.32.27-incredikernel-12232010_signed.zip

Cheers!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phydo:
In a little bit. On a tough experiment. I lied about wanting sleep tonight. Is it running?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] POQbum:
Yes quite well so far, I stress tested, wifi works, bluetooth works, gps works. All is well.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phydo:
just so you know, if those sense voltages are the same as chad's incredikernel .37 for aosp, the voltages are those with -75mV from -viperboy-'s init.d script applied. Basically that is the lowest my phone would run. -100mV made my phone hang on the white incredible screen in the beginning. Everything should work, wifi was questionable only making sure I put the right module in the system directory. it's really just about stability of running. invisiblek's works extremely stable for my aosp phone with quite a drop on it, so I'm happy about that, I hope it helps you a little too. I really think it's a minor-low difference, but with our dincs, any difference helps. I mean, 75mV is like 6-8% of the regular voltages, something like that. (and no, I don't have a calculator, I'm guessing), so it's not a ton, but it's lower than it was. let's put it that way.

edit: basically all I'm changing is voltages. so either your phone will run it just like it did before, or it really won't run it at all
[Droid Incredible Android Development] POQbum:
Double checking because I'm a little confused, the voltages on the one provided are -75mv less than chad's 12/23 Sense kernel?

And I think his init.d script only works with sysfs, or I may be wrong :S
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phydo:
no -75mv from the AOSP kernel. there's no init.d script. it's hard coded into the source and recompiled. Basically there's a voltage table in the kernel C files that looks just like the one in the sysfs file vdd_whatever. I changed them, and recompiled. so it's hard-coded in, it's just that i put it at the lowest i can do on my aosp kernel without locking up. the only reason I mentioned the init.d script is how I arrived at the numbers I hard-coded in.

on a side note, I *may* have sysfs working on invisiblek's kernel.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] POQbum:
Ah ok. I'll report battery usage tomorrow ;)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phydo:
it's minorly noticable on my invisiblek kernel. I use my phone quite heavily and I could probably push about an extra hour out of my battery with this. maybe 1.5 hours.

Ugh I'm *sooo* close to getting the sysfs working. I can see the vdd_levels file, but when I change it, it just reverts back to the standard voltage levels. I'll get this working. I also need it to show as vdd_levels_havs, which is minor. hopefully tomorrow guys.

POQBum: Any battery luck? is it working stable?

I'm trying to work out compiler issues that are stating my flashlight.c and lowmemorykiller.c are using undeclared functions which actually are declared and can't figure it out. I *almost* have sysfs working I think.

if anyone cares: http://pastebin.com/4ZtJnmBv
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phydo:
hey any kernel developers out there who are willing to give a noob a learning hand? maybe hit me up on twitter as @foodferthought. I really need a hand with that pastebin above. I've been trying and trying at this. if not I'll figure it out eventually. I'm just impatient
[Droid Incredible Android Development] donnyp1:
just loaded up the lowvolt sense tonite with nils business z, everything booted fine, wifi works fine. It seems a little slower than the normal sense kernel i use, ziggys 3/12 bfs wo havs, but I am gunna run it all night tonite and tomorrow, unless issues develop. Business z is one of the most trouble free and stable roms out there, so I figured it would be a good one to try this with. i ocd to 1.113, and all is good so far. will keep you posted.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phydo:
mine's been super stable, and I can't say slow, but I use aosp gb which is a little quicker than sense. I've heard nil's is quick though. Right now I'm driving myself insane with this sysfs stuff but I hold faith I'll get it
[Droid Incredible Android Development] donnyp1:
I prefer the z roms over cm7 for

speed, battrry, and looks. The newerbuilds of gb just dont work as well to me. Ive gotten good at canfiguring z roms.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] donnyp1:
Wtf !
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phydo:
wtf what? 10char
[Droid Incredible Android Development] donnyp1:
Xda app freaked out on me, guess it was only me, was putting about 50 lines between sentences, i rebooted. Is normal again. Real strange
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phydo:
if you can, I'd appreciate you letting me know your experience over 24 hours or so. for me it's been incredibly stable for the invisiblek one. the sense one I can't try because I don't use sense. POQbum was going to get back to me but he didn't. maybe his phone transformed and killed him overnight. what do I know. so if I could get some input I'm just really interested. good night man
[Droid Incredible Android Development] donnyp1:
No prob. Im curious on battery life, ziggys does well for me. Bumped back the clock to 1.075, have screen off profile set 245/384. Seems like its settled in nicely.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] donnyp1:
So far kernel doin just fine, cant tell much on battery as only been off charger a few hours, nut no issues
[Droid Incredible Android Development] donnyp1:
Battery life doesnt seem quite as good as ziggys. Kernel is very stable though
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phydo:
You're using Chad's? That's good to know because Chad's aosp Kern is a little unstable for me. At least I know the sense kernel is better.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] donnyp1:
Yes, the one in the op.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phydo:
yeah thanks. I just had no way to test it.

just so everyone knows, on nightly 75 for CM, I was getting random reboots like twice a day on the modded invisiblek kernel. I just updated to latest nightly, it was working very stable before that for days. gotta see what's up here.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hightech316:
I'm in the middle of developING a voltage app giving the ability to set custom as well as preset voltage settings, of Course if kernel supports. I'll post ASAP.

I'm aware of the app that's out in the market, never got it to work. Anyone else try this app?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phydo:
No, I had only seen one for the galaxy s or something like that. granted the interfaces are probably the same but who knows

edit: and I may never use it if it doesn't stop throwing this error: http://pastebin.com/AYYB7Z7J

ok Cayniarb gave me some advice on IRC. I'll try to continue some development in the morning. I love this android community, I just have to say. I think I'm getting better at this stuff :D
[Droid Incredible Android Development] donnyp1:
I ran this on nils bus z all day, was very stable, no fc or reboots. Really no issues at all, good, stable kernel. Id like to see you undrrvolt some ziggys kernels. 3/12 bfs wo havs is still my fav kernell
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phydo:
edit your post and post a link lol. I'm lazy, but I'll recompile it at lower voltages. that's *if* it's not already undervolted

Also note that its not going to really undervolt well at all without havs. Havs is sort of required for that

And thank you for getting back to me, I really rely on you guys for the push to keep playing in the sandbox
[Droid Incredible Android Development] donnyp1:
O

Np dude it does work fine, didnot have a single problem. This is a very good kernel for sense. If i didnt have such luck with ziggys, this would be my main kernel.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rfarrah:
Ran the Sense version all day yesterday on Re-Engineered Z. No problems at all and it seemed to work well and fast, but battery life seemed a little shorter than with Chad's Incredikernal from December. I'll pay more attention today and let you know if I see anything different.

Still test-driving....
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phydo:
That's strange because this really is Chad's incredikernel with lower voltages. I think he did post some other files to github after I built it maybe ill resync
[Droid Incredible Android Development] POQbum:
It does have very excellent battery life. After you first flash a kernel it'll take some time for your phone to calibrate your battery size, so I think this is what he was experiencing. After running it for a few days he would be able to better tell.

I've been running this since you put it out and have had no issues at all, now the only thing that really will drain my battery is 3G network usage.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phydo:
Awesome thanks!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mrsmith35sg:
Anything new going on with this?
