I think we can do with an extra line in init.post_boot.sh to limit the max freq and just let users OC it.

e.g:

echo 1536000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq
echo 1536000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq

Hi,

My phone is S-off, rooted and i have cwm....but I dont have EXT4, can I install this rom and do wipe data/factory Reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache? and not all 10 steps?

Thanks for help
[HTC Desire S] Sib64:
If you have CWM, you can normally do all the steps.

Just download CoreDroid tools.
[HTC Desire S] Likalnik:
Thanks for help, but is necesery to do this all 10 steps or is everything fine if I do just wipe data/factory Reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache?
[HTC Desire S] eyahl:
That should do it.

those 10 steps repeat the same procedure I think 3 times.

It's not necessary to do everything twice or even more often..

[HTC Desire S] Likalnik:
Thanks you guys for this answers....then I do just like I do whit all roms....3 steps and that is it....

again thanks
[HTC Desire S] Sib64:
If we says to you to do the 10 steps that's for to perform a fresh install without problems.

As, @ben said, we can also do only the wipe all parttions (step 1), but it's not a really a fresh install.

I'm doing a fresh install at all the times that I'm going to change of rom.
[HTC Desire S] Tectas:
Don't get me wrong, but wipe all partitions deletes all data at those partitions (and btw it's format all partitions not wipe ;)), if you want to be sure, wipe every partition afterwards and it's as fresh as the 10 steps within 5 steps.

If you really think it's needed format once again after wiping, but a format all also does it, this means a maximum of 6 steps.

Wiping deletes the whole data, formatting deletes the allocation even if there isn't any after wiping.

It's sure good to stay on the save side, but remember that flash memory isn't made to live forever, after a decent count of writes it gets faulty and we strain it more then enough with normal wiping and ROM flashing, if you do the 10 steps at every flash, you shorten the life of your device more than necessary.

It maybe won't count for average flashers, but sure for people with ORD and devs ;)

[HTC Desire S] oskar102:
Sorry, but I'm a little confused.

What is correct?

Should we perform 10 steps or not?
[HTC Desire S] philou1403:
Wipe data and cache was enough in my case.
[HTC Desire S] Tectas:
You can, but it's not really needed, a format all or the wipe script should be more than enough.
[HTC Desire S] jimbo29:
Doesn't work...

Hey guys it's something weird here. I know how to flash a rom properly but I have a hard day with this one. I wiped everything multiple times. My sdcard is without Android or any system folders left from a previous ROM.

What is going on?

Sometimes hangs at HTC logo screen and right now after a clean installation of this ROM hangs at the waiting cursor image. The waiting cursor freeze after going 5 or so circles and that is it. Nothing happens. I have a still image for some time now.

What can I do?

I would like to install this ROM because I had the previous version and I was very pleased with it!

Thank you very much!
[HTC Desire S] Tectas:
Htcdev?

If yes, did you flash the boot.img with fastboot?

If not, pls gather logcat information.
[HTC Desire S] jimbo29:
Excuse my laziness, but can you be more specific.

Thank you very much!
[HTC Desire S] Tectas:
Did you use htcdev to unlock your bootloader?

If you done this, did you flash the boot.img inside the rom zip with fastboot?

If not pls do it, without the proper kernel it won't work.

If your s-off and not htcdev unlocked, pls gather logcat information with

adb logcat

to provide it to the developers that they can take a look at it.
[HTC Desire S] MarylandCookie:
This seems to be a problem across the board on XDA. Everyone assumes unlocking the bootloader from htcdev is enough but in fact it causes more problems than good.

Also to add I dont think you can flash the boot.img if unlocked by htcdev this is the biggest cause of issues with custom roms.!
[HTC Desire S] Tectas:
It's possible to flash it, unfortunately only with fastboot, not by recovery, but with fastboot it works, there are many reports of users who done it and it worked for them, unfortunately there are still many who don't know it or don't think about it.

Swyped from my Desire S far away from my PC (maybe)
[HTC Desire S] MarylandCookie:
It's possible but you need to flash the kernel first then the ROM "i think" <- dont quote me on it :)
[HTC Desire S] Tectas:
Already done :P just joking^^

I must confess I mostly recommended the other way round, not based on anything, just because most of the time people don't know about it complaining why it doesn't work and i tell them to flash the kernel (nothing additional because the ROM is already flashed) and it worked for all of them afaik.

And when I think about how it should be caused, if the recovery gets no permission to flash to the boot partition it wouldn't make any difference if the kernel is flashed before or afterwards, but maybe someone is willing to try it and report afterwards :)

Oh and sry for the OT :)

I completely agree it's getting slightly frustrating, continually repeating the same advice over and over...just like the early days of revolutionary all over again.

When I get an opportunity I'll try to add something new to the INDEX to make this advice more obvious as it seems nearly all users now use HTCdev and the majority all fall down this same trap.

Right now im using stock rom to last update with radio 20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04, hboot 2.00.0002 and s-on.

Since radio is the latest i wont be updating it. but what about the hboot? id like to update it. and how can i s-off with my current hboot? from what ive read is only possible till 0.98.0002 using revolutionary-0.4pre4.

I was able to flash this rom and im rly enjoying it. but there r some apps that id like to remove like twitter. i cant uninstall them. can i remove them somehow? where is the location of apps?
[HTC Desire S] :
Your best bet is to use titanium backup (pro version) to freeze the apps you don't want. That way, if there's any side effects from doing so, its easy to unfreeze. Once frozen it'll be prevented from running and removed from your app drawer.
[HTC Desire S] PlayGhost2:
Thanks.

I got another issue. i inserted my sim card now and my phone is telling me that the sim is locked. seems like the phone locked to another sim companny. but before i flashed it was unlocked. what can i do now?

If Yes,Can anyone please link me to some?

This ROM is a skinned ROM in its own right. It comes with the stock skin, and a Coredroid one. You can change lock ring, fonts, notification bar, animations etc in the tweaks menu. The ROM is also de-odexed so you can cook your own mods in the uot kitchen of the tweaks doesn't have what you want.

1st of all the rom is the awsomeness :).

i changed the lower right shortcut from "personalize" to "opera", but the icon remains the same... is there a way to changed it?

Glad you like it. No the icon isn't supposed to change. Or should say opera underneath the icon though.

[HTC Desire S] Sib64:
We have a fix about the issue with Lord's Kernel OC.

It remains for us to prepare an update of the current rom or an kernel's update.

This fix has been done by @MarylandCookie ;)
[HTC Desire S] MarylandCookie:
There is no need for an update as those who are running the rom can just throttle the cpu down using any available app or the included oc daemon.

The fix is applicable to new installations so that the rom boots at max 1GHz and then it's up to the user to OC etc.
[HTC Desire S] PlayGhost2:
what is the governator. what do they do? whats the difference between them? mine is 'ondemand' and every time i try to change it the phone just crash and i need to take batt out.
[HTC Desire S] :
A governor is what determines how your CPU speed behaves between it's min and max frequency. Some are tuned for performance, some are tuned for battery saving. The best ones try to do a bit of both. The governator was a terrible action movie that went straight to DVD. :D

If you are getting it freezing, chances are it's to dowith your max CPU speed, not your governor. Make sure you are not using the default kernel (Lord Clockan) until the fix has been posted (any time now) as after each reboot it defaults to a max CPU speed of 1.7GHz which is likely what's causing your hang-ups. Use the Tweaks to select the Endymion kernel for now, which does not have this problem.

Ondemand has never caused freezes for me. Sometimes you can have lag on waking up the phone if you have the min frequency too low and use the wrong governor. Here is a much more comprehensive explanation of the most common governors so you can decide which sounds like the one you want....

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1369817

P.S. Always try to do a reset by holding both volume buttons down whilst holding the power button, before resorting to a battery pull.
[HTC Desire S] PlayGhost2:
thanks. i now understand what is the governor for (and not governator xD). i see that the tweak app have 3 diferent kernels to choose from. what are the diferences between them?
[HTC Desire S] :
A kernel developer will make a kernel to provide the best balance between battery life, audio performance, wifi performance, camera performance etc.

Not tried the Hyperion kernel for long, but the Endymion I find very smooth and good on battery life. The differences I have noticed are simply down to which governors are available. Endy, for example, has smartass2 which is good for reducing waking lag from having a very low min CPU frequency. This is the one I tend to go for.

Have a play with them and see which gives you the preferred battery life, smoothness and performance. It's all just personal preference really.
[HTC Desire S] PlayGhost2:
tried to change the kernel (to endymion). it gave me an error. and now wifi wont work. when i try to activate wifi it says error... :mad:
[HTC Desire S] :
Ok which one did you try to use?

For now, boot into recovery, wipe cache and Dalvik, then reflash the ROM (which I'm assuming is still on your sd card). That'll get you back to default lord kernel (don't forget to turn default speed down).

Let me know which kernel you tried and what version of tweaks you have. In the mean time, you can download my copy of the endy kernel from this....

http://db.tt/77zaXIZ4
[HTC Desire S] PlayGhost2:
according to daemon controller my kernel is LoDmod CDT V71 and tweak app is LorDmodCDT 1.3 b1 wich i assume is the same (duh...). this have never changed. if i reflash the rom will i lose stuff on the phone (not the sdcard) like apps, sms and configurations, etc?

my tweak version is the latest, 4.0.9
[HTC Desire S] :
No if you only wipe the cache you will still have all your apps and SMS. You only loose apps and SMS in a full wipe. It should return you to functioning wifi.
[HTC Desire S] PlayGhost2:
cant i simply flash your kernel? using install from sdcard in recovery mod?

also what happens if clear dalvik-cache? what is that cache? i know what is the normal cache not dalvik

i tried to change to endymion as u said
[HTC Desire S] :
Yeah give it a go. Flash in recovery.
[HTC Desire S] PlayGhost2:
just arrived home. the wipe cache+dalvik did not work. gonna try the flash of your kernel...

[EDIT]

just flashed the .zip but the kernel is still LorDmod. and wifi is not working... :(

is there a way to fix the wifi? like restoring the rom without losing anything? i also have a full backup done via recovery mod arround 1 week old...

but i's still like to try endymion kernel with smartass2 governor

[EDIT2]

just did a system restore only. wifi is working, no data seems to be lost, everything seems just normal.

any tips about changing the kernel so i can use smartass2 governor?
[HTC Desire S] :
Not sure why it isn't working for you. Just tried it myself. Restored to default ROM settings, and applied endy kernel via tweaks. All works here. Give it another go now you have functioning wifi. It helps to have a good connection for tweaks to download the kernel from our servers.

Oh and the endy kernel governor you want is called Savagedzen. it's based on smartass2.
[HTC Desire S] PlayGhost2:
i wont b home for 2day. ill give it another go when i get home l8r.

the governer Savagedzen will appear if i flash endymion with success?
[HTC Desire S] :
Correct. It's the one I'm using at the minute with the Endy kernel.
[HTC Desire S] Tectas:
Maybe stupid question, but are you htc dev unlocked?

If yes flash the kernel you want with fastboot, i guess your wifi stopped working before, because you flashed the kernel but it only replaced the additional lib that it's shipped with the kernel, but didn't replace the boot.img.

Gesendet von meinem Desire S mit Tapatalk
[HTC Desire S] PlayGhost2:
yes. i used htc dev unlock. now that u mention it, when i try to update 4EXT recovery touch updater app it wont work. it downloads the recovery.img and i have to manually flash it via fastboot.

how to i flash kernel using fastboot? cause im pretty sure what u said was just what happened to me...

[EDIT]

mayb i should have said it earlier... my device is S-ON.

i found the boot.img inside the .zip of endymion kernel. should i flash the zip in recovery mod and than restart phone in fastboot and flash boot.img?
[HTC Desire S] Tectas:
Copy the boot.img to pc inside your adb folder and flash it from shell with

fastboot flash boot boot.img

If you restored a backup since your wifi stopped working, yes, flash the zip with recovery before.
