[Thunderbolt Android Development] KDKobes:
**AFTER DOING

MY TESTING

THESE ARE THE STEPS I RECOMMEND TO ANYONE GOING OR STAYING ON GINGERBREAD**

If you are coming from non-gingerbread​

- Install Gingerbread Radio from hboot - - ALLOW THE PHONE TO RESTART - - DO NOT PULL BATTERY(yes, there's NO voice/data whatsoever)

- Now reboot into recovery and WIPE EVERYTHING from cache to

BATTERY STATS

(yes this is important (PHONE MUST BE 100% CHARGED)) AND

GO INTO MOUNTS AND STORAGE AND FORMAT CACHE, DATA, SYSTEM

(otherwise you will have more partition issues later on) and install your gingerbread ROM of choice. Chances are during setup it will reboot once (allow this to occur and continue setup upon restart) After setting up

UN-CHECK FASTBOOT FROM SETTINGS

- - THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT, then power the device off and then power it back on...your all set to go.

THIS IS A GREAT LINK TO FOLLOW FOR SETUP AND INSTALLATION ALSO AND IS MORE THOROUGH​

Steps (ACCORDING TO MY TESTING) to ensure a proper working device​

- I recommend a task manager of some sort to free up memory as

I feel

the gingerbread leaked ROM has a memory leak/memory allocation issue and partition issue (simple searches can show anyone how and why this happens and how this combined with over-clocking can cause failure..exactly like has occurred - - this happens with computers all the time - - lets read and research if you really want to understand something)

UPDATE JUNE 6th

Quick snip why I don't recommend doing a "swap" on this ROM.

" Re: memory swapping causes system failure?

What applications are you running? Does anything have a serious memory leak that is consuming all available RAM and swap space? Running out of memory will cause the system to fail, even though there are routines to kill processes in an attempt to keep going."

(I know there are going to be complaints of people saying its bad for the device..(

GO HERE FOR EXPLANATION

)..yes android tends to release memory after so long..BUT as I said before

this

ROM has an obvious memory leak and isn't releasing memory as it should..yes, normally one wouldn't need one this is correct, but since this isn't a perfect stable running ROM and has flaws..this is what I recommend for this release to lower issues.)​

***ANOTHER LINK WHY I RECOMMEND A TASK MANAGER***

- I DO NOT recommend over-clocking past 1.4Mhz due to possible damage/failure of device. (CAN VERY FROM PERSON TO PERSON, DEVICE TO DEVICE, AND USAGE OF SAID DEVICE)

- Battery Stats MUST BE WIPED often especially after a couple installs of a new kernel - - AGAIN

YES THIS IS IMPORTANT

- -

DEVICE MUST ALSO HAVE 100% CHARGE BEFORE WIPING

- Under-Volting will NOT damage the device, but will cause freezing issues. I recommend 245Mhz or above. ( AGAIN VARIES UPON USAGE OF DEVICE)

**AGAIN THIS IS ALL BASED UPON MY TESTING SINCE INITIAL RELEASE OF GINGERBREAD**​

**RECOMMENDED IGNORE LIST IN TASK MANAGER'S**

​

Camera (can cause issues with some task managers)

Superuser

Market

Clock

Calendar

Messages

Gmail (optional, but will pop up often)

Mail (optional, but will pop up)(removed on mine)

peep (optional)(removed on mine)

gtalk (optional)(removed on mine)

Music (optional, will pop up anytime its accessed especially if its on home screen)

Kinda Extras - - personal preference to ignore or not

- My Verizon Mobile (if you have it will run often - I kill it)

- Maps (runs quite often, mainly for geolocation - I kill it)

- For instance I have Beautiful Widgets w/live wallpaper running..I ignore it so it updates and runs properly

***Again just a quick list of stuff**some task managers have ignore service apps option..make sure to use them(some people's may be different depending on the apps on the device)
