[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SA-07:
Hi,

What are some of the differences for making a kernel compatible with cyanogenmod7 instead of stock aosp for the nexus s? How do you make a kernel compatible for cyanogenmod also in addition to stock?

Thanks!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treUse:
This belongs in the Q&A part of the forum.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamxeph:
Wrong section, but definitely fascinating question for me. I've always been curious about this.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matt2053:
I believe it is the framework. CM has basically built their own framework, whereas most ROMs just build off the stock framework.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SA-07:
Yeah, thanks for moving it. Lol. But yeah, I'm not really sure haha.

Want to upgrade your htc hero to 3500 mAh, without paying more than 25$?

Extended case

$9.99

amazon.com/gp/product/B003KQ24VE

3500mAh Extended Battery

$8.41

amazon.com/gp/product/B0042TY68C

The htc hero and the evo use the same battery. Instead of paying 70$ for 3,500 mAh.

I did some research and think this to be true, if it is not true, please advise.
[Hero CDMA Accessories] Riff76:
Welcome back
[Hero CDMA Accessories] spiritcrusher33:
I went this route back in the day. the oem extended battery door will only fit the oem 2100 mAh battery. I had to take the case off the seidio 3500 mAh battery to get it to fit..

so in theory you should be able to do the same with that cheapo battery..
[Hero CDMA Accessories] ScrapSilicon:
I'd gotten mine off ebay(from 芝加哥 China) for $10 shipped with hero ext back cover. Batt is marked hero200 3500mAh as well ...working great
[Hero CDMA Accessories] fredrick1213:
Wow. I really want to get this!
[Hero CDMA Accessories] nateleduc:
I bought mine off ebay for under $10. Last two FULL days with everything on.

What is the aH of the stock battery?
[LG Optimus 2x] monkeytown:
hey XDAs,

when i downloaded a custom rom like modaco, i had every app in a specific folder with framework, resources etc.

now i downloaded one of the stock roms of these but when i tried to open it, i only had a .bin and a .fls file.

is there a stock rom (would be best) version, where i have all apps separated in folders like the custom roms?

my plan is to add/remove apps, change the launcher and change all app icons, starting with this (this is what i have so far) and put the whole package in one rom.zip to have it installed by clockworkmod
[LG Optimus 2x] Harsh:
when you want to use stock rom you need smartflash or nvflash tool to flash files, it reset everything except your SD card.

.fls file is for baseband and .bin file is a ROM

and when you want to modify sooooooo much, why not use source from MoDaCo, i mean his zip file, all is based on stock ROM with extra benefits.

just modify his files and try installing it into yours, and by modifying i am guessing you wont sign back your zip file after modification. :cool:
[LG Optimus 2x] monkeytown:
i tried lots of custom roms so far and had a hard time to get back to stock till i found nvflash :P

so these stock roms from the thread can only be installed via nvflash?

problem is, by now i´m only able to change some icons or remove/add complete apps AND i would like to have the LG lockscreen, stock statusbar icons, stock toggle bar in pulldown menu and so on.....and no rom but the stock rom could fulfill these wishes :(

last chance i had in mind was the modaco online kitchen but that is for premium users only.....

i MIGHT sell my phone on ebay and i would like to add a complete rom with stock apps and MY custom icons as a bonus.....

for example: optimus speed stock version but if YOU (buyer) want to, i pre-install some unique custom icons and stuff ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] Harsh:
modaco FR17 is downloadable for everyone.... and if you go stock then go COMPLETE stock, that is what STOCK mean....

and just nvflash and your problem is solved for selling it, but just remember choose only the firmware from region where your phone is from. :D...

and if my post help, do hit THANKS button. feels good.
[LG Optimus 2x] anzo:
MoDaCo Ad Free only £9.99 I think Paul deserves much support.
[LG Optimus 2x] monkeytown:
yeah well, putting back to stock is not a problem.....

i still could change all icons via root manager but that would take to much time and effort.....think i have to give the modaco FR17 a shot. you mean fr17-update-modacocustomrom-2x-kitchen-unsigned no?
[LG Optimus 2x] Harsh:
yeah, its FR17, its nice ROM feels stock like, but have few extras, which you can remove if you dont like using Titanium Backup, the easy way.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] budco2000:
the first couple days i had my GS2 it stayed on the 2100Mhz UTMS band and i was getting 9mbps down. last couple days its on HSDPA and only getting 4.5 down. I had good signal and data on utms, how do i lock phone to that band. i tried the *#*#4636#*#* with no luck. Is there a buildprop entry i could add?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aerobahn:
Curious about this as well...bump.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] midirt:
I have Bell Galaxy S. I have a line-in (aux input) module in my car (2008 Mazda6). When I connect phone to the input when phone is battery-powered - everything is fine, sound is clean and no noise. The moment I plug the micro-usb power adapter to the phone - I hear lots of background crackle, hiss and noise, making listening to music unbearable.

I have tried 5 (!) different car adapters (with usb->microusb adapter and the ones with usb jack and regular usb->microusb cable that came with phone), different USB cables - same result. The moment power is on, noise is there. Looks like a design flaw of Galaxy S - it was perfectly OK with my old phone (HTC Touch).

I would appreciate any advise about how to solve this. Maybe getting a cleaner power feed somehow, or solving it in the phone, or something else. I can't be the only one noticing this, the noise is pretty loud and anyone would be annoyed by this.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] me_ashman:
Does your mazda have the bose system? Anyway if not you need a ground loop isolator. It will fix the annoying whine coming through.

Sent via ET and he phoned it in.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] iolinux333:
Get this

m.crutchfield.com/mt/www.crutchfield.com/p_127SNI135/PAC-SNI-1-3-5-Noise-Filter.html?tp=2653

It will definitely work it is perfect.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] toddmworth:
True. I'd take it to the auto electrician and have them wire it up properly. Ground loops in the audio system is a rookie mistake by mazda.
[HTC EVO 3D] phyba:
Well at my local store he showed me where if I trade in my EVO, I'd get $150 toward the 3d. So basically if the 3d is $199 on contract, it would only cost $50.....good deal right there
[HTC EVO 3D] bwcorvus:
What do you mean by local store? Best buy, radio shack, walmart..

Sent From My Evo
[HTC EVO 3D] phyba:
Sprint store
[HTC EVO 3D] nosfanatic2006:
Guess my buddy will be buying my mint Evo for $150 instead of $100 :-P
[HTC EVO 3D] firmbiz94:
Does that price stay true when the 3d comes out?..seems like a pretty fair deal at 150...I sucks that I'm only eligible for $75 discount since I upgraded only last April..I wish I could convince Sprint to give me an early full upgrade on a family plan
[HTC EVO 3D] 1wingangel:
How much are the taxes?
[HTC EVO 3D] fmedina2:
Yall can get so much more on ebay or craigslist...
[HTC EVO 3D] scotbot:
sold my evo for $315 on ebay! ( rooted flashed with CM7 ) with original box, extra bat, and otterbox. so yeah, if you have the patience and know how to make a desirable Ebay ad.

Now Im on a intercept until the E3d drops. I found a hero on ebay for $35 so I may see how it runs CM7, the intercept is laggy with foyo and is a crapy phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] eman3316@optonline.net:
Wouldn't the buyer then need to flash a Sense Rom in order to change the phone to his account or can you enter your MSL code into the phone on CM7?
[HTC EVO 3D] firmbiz94:
Eww an intercept? I couldn't do it..my girl has one of those and I'd throw it against the wall if it was mine..much rather my old hero
[HTC EVO 3D] eman3316@optonline.net:
If you trade your phone into Sprint, BB, or Radio Shack do you need to un-root it first or can you just throw a stock Sense Rom back on the phone and leave it rooted?

Anybody know or what will you be doing?
[HTC EVO 3D] Zabalba:
Can anyone else confirm this? I pre-ordered mine at Radio Shack and they are only giving a $100 credit turn in.
[HTC EVO 3D] Rem3Dy:
Yes. The person would need a sense rom to be able to activate the phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] eman3316@optonline.net:
Guess it sucks for the person who bought the phone then if he doesn't know how to flash Roms.....
[HTC EVO 3D] scotbot:
I was able to enter the service mode under the sense rom. In order to change the MDN and MSID off my numbers. Ill email the guy and let him know how to chage it.
[HTC EVO 3D] scotbot:
you need to flash back to stock rom. maybe at best buy they would not know to check but sprint and RS do check
[HTC EVO 3D] eman3316@optonline.net:
As long as you can get in with your MSL# you should be able to activate then.

Still wondering if we need to actually un-root the phone in order to trade in though as in S-ON.
[HTC EVO 3D] JBone19:
I was wondering the same thing...
[HTC EVO 3D] phyba:
Call ur local sprint store. They should tell u over the phone
[HTC EVO 3D] mazpro:
I stopped by a local bestbuy and sprint store. Bestbuy is not doing any kind of credit for a trade in, but the sprint store confirmed that they are giving back $150 as long as the phone is in good condition.
[HTC EVO 3D] EmmaHAARP:
I would also like a confirmation of the $150 trade in with the stock rooted ROM.
[HTC EVO 3D] cracker0309:
Radio Shack must have went down on there trade in value for the evo. I checked the value last weekend and it said trade in value was $179 for my Evo and $176 for my wifes Evo Shift. Now its saying $128 for Evo and $176 for Shift.

Guess I'll either be doing the CL or Ebay thing
[HTC EVO 3D] rockypr:
F#ck, I also check the other day and EVO in Radio Shack was 179, sh!t...
[HTC EVO 3D] cracker0309:
I might just trade her shift in and let her have my Evo.
[HTC EVO 3D] captain008:
So I called my local Sprint store and asked about the trade in/buy back of the HTC Evo 4G. Per the sprint rep, I can get "upto" $150 back for my Evo towards a purchase of the new Evo 3D. The only kicker is, I have to put down $100 per Evo 3D that I want. Also the $150 from the old Evo goes towards your entire store purchase for phones and/or accessories.

As far as rooted Evos, as long as its a stock sense rom there should not be an issue. Per the rep they are not checking for the S-off or for root, however she said that store with a repair center may do spot checks on the Evos before buying it back.

I hope this helps guys.
[HTC EVO 3D] :
I just got my upgrade date moved up a year and now getting the evo 3d for full discounted price. But had to play hard ball and threaten to leave for Verizon or ATT lol. Took about 10mins of text talk to get it but well worth it. So 10 mins of bs'ING equals $300 - $499- $150(evo 4g credit) = $50 and one happy customer.
[HTC EVO 3D] XxDjbluexX:
or you could have done it by looking at this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1093232 and not have horrible notes left on your account
[HTC EVO 3D] Night·Fire:
I've never had Sprint physically take one of my phones during a trade in. I have have always received the trade in value.
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
Please everyone trade in your evo for the measly 100 or 150 credit. This way theyll be less of them on eBay (where you can get 300), I got 450 for my iphone 3g right after evo launch. I fully intend to get close to 400 for the Evo. Its all about your listing, condition, and feedback. Plus I have about twenty batteries and cases, lol.
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
So your getting the trade in and keeping the phone?
[HTC EVO 3D] eman3316@optonline.net:
Best Buy does trade in's on all cell phones. You can lookup online how much you would get for an EVO on Bestbuy's site.
[HTC EVO 3D] mazpro:
Interesting, it's not what the BB Mobile rep told me :confused:

EDIT: looks like they do not do trade-in on certain states, Florida being one of them.
[HTC EVO 3D] Night·Fire:
I always have in the past. I still have my BB Curve, Bold and Tour while still getting the $150.00 trade in on them when I upgraded each one. I've even reactivated one of them temporarily when one of my Evo's were down.
[HTC EVO 3D] firmbiz94:
That's odd...but good for you I guess
[HTC EVO 3D] coldblooded79:
Yeah so I just got off the phone with Sprint...no dice so far. My girlfriend and I signed a new contract with Sprint last October, so our upgrade won't be till October...should I call them back? I just swapped my Evo for a Nexus 4g + 50 dollars with a fellow craiglister to tide me over till the 3d comes out.
[HTC EVO 3D] coldblooded79:
Oh yeah and 115 dollars trade in on my Nexus is what the Rep offered me.. Ha Ha.
[HTC EVO 3D] eman3316@optonline.net:
Are you sure your not confusing the $150 upgrade discount with your trade-in? If you were actually traded in your phone for $150 I am pretty sure you would need to hand your phone over at the time of purchase. Otherwise the salesperson would have some explaining to do.......
[HTC EVO 3D] jblazea50:
Anyone know if Sprint will check the device prior to giving the credit if taken to the store? My phone is in excellent condition and I have a 16gb class 10 SD card and the original SD card is at my house (I'm in different state for the time being). So if I were to not include an SD card, will they still give the full credit?
[HTC EVO 3D] lafester:
If people are getting full upgrades after only 8 months I need to start taking advantage of this deal.
[HTC EVO 3D] rgraetz:
I preordered at a local Sprint Corp store today and they said all I need to bring for the trade is the phone with battery. The specifically said I keep the SD card and charger...
[HTC EVO 3D] firmbiz94:
I hope this is true ..would be nice to keep my SD card
[HTC EVO 3D] fmedina2:
Does anyone know if Best Buy is giving a trade in credit?
[HTC EVO 3D] dmaul3300:
If you take your phone to trade in to sprint, would you get the instant $150 or would they credit your account $150? If they give you the instant credit, you could get the phone for the cost of the taxes ($150 credit for old evo, $50 gift card purchased to reserve a spot) this is assuming you are eligible for the $150 savings.

We will have instant savings on the phone - no mail in rebates - correct?

Do you have to go online and fill out the trade in info, before taking it to the store to turn it in?
[HTC EVO 3D] donatom3:
Or you could bill the Evo 3D to your account if your sprint account has a credit that allows it.
[HTC EVO 3D] mario23:
I preordered at a local Sprint store yesterday. They are going to apply the 150 trade in to my purchase bringing the overall price down to just 50 out the door. As far as I know this wasn't being advertised anywhere. Its a good deal for me. I don't want to bother trying to sell online or anything. I'm psyched now...ready for some sense 3.0!!!
[HTC EVO 3D] phyba:
They told me the same thing....wonder what class card cones with the EVO 3d....
[HTC Inspire 4G] akira02rex:
Are we going to see the new 3.0 kernel being implemented on our phones any time soon? Any benefits to this?

Thanks!
[HTC Inspire 4G] hololight:
The 3.0 kernel is just a renumbering scheme. It was going to be 2.6.40 originally. No major changes.
[HTC Inspire 4G] JanovPelorat:
No point, there's not much changed that would affect our devices in any meaningful way. Also this would have been 2.6.40.0 or 2.6.40.1 (not sure). I find Linux kernels are not stable enough until they reach the ~20th release. Each new release usually comes with loads of regression bugs :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] akira02rex:
I understand it was supposed to be a different version but besides that point I wasn't sure if it was any faster for us.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Sqdnguns:
3.0 has absolutely nothing major to add, see Linus' post here:

http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=OTUwMg

I may compile a fresh kernel for my Slackware laptop though.......just to see how it runs.
[HTC Inspire 4G] diegof18:
???kernel 3???

I read some where this kernel will start bringing native support for arm, wouldnt that be a huge improve to our phones?

[Droid Incredible Android Development] sruel3216:
Hey i was wondering if there were any new gingersense roms that are only 2.1 with no added 3.0 features. as much as i like 3.0 i find all the roms a bit buggy. i think its due to the low memory and big file size of the 3.0 apps

im just looking for a full sense 2.1 rom so i can have the pull down toggles and the new app drawer. any roms out there?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] g00gl3:
I am currently running the Optimized Gingersense Beta 1 rom. It is strictly Sense 2.1 and is very stable for me. I have been using it as my daily driver since it was released. I know the latest Betas have been a mix of Sense 2.1 and 3.0, but I am waiting for them to become a little more stable.

Good luck. :cool:
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Nideda24:
That rom incorporates bits of Sense 3.0 as well. I think the idea of a 2.1 port would be great!

EDIT: I missed the beta 1 portion, my apologies.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] sruel3216:
what are some of the bugs in beta1? mms?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] sruel3216:
yea i dont think it would be to much to change. the lockscreen and weather app are a big bulk of the size i believe
[Droid Incredible Android Development] davidw2k4:
I would also love a stock sense 2.1 rom
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tincbtrar:
Arent all of the Sense 2.1 ports GSM based? Everytime I used a Z Rom or Sense 2.1 or 3.0 (Whatever hybrids they are now) I would get phantom calls, funny mobile data switching, and the like.

If there was a CDMA based port perhaps this would all be moot?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] shoman24v:
There's a Thunderbolt gingerbread leak that one of the devs said he'd look into seeing if it was easy to port - assuming data worked when he tried. Not sure on his progress... but I too would like to see a stock 2.X rom.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=996193 - link to TBolt leak.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] sruel3216:
warm z 2.0 ran wonderful on my phone and i had no phantom calls. these were some problems for others i believe. its just hard coming from warm z which was super smooth and going to a 2.1/3.0 hybrid with all that bulk and then getting lag in places i never experienced before
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Andassaran:
I'm behind this one too. Not saying that the 2.1/3.0 hybrids are bad, rather quite the opposite. They are amazing ROMs with amazing developers behind them. Just the 3.0 features create lag in places and eat just a little too much of our quite limited ram for what I do with my device. Would have made a full stock 2.1 with the new fixes myself except ... lol ... I don't know how.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Nideda24:
I would love to see a port right from the EVO Shift...it's cdma and some 2.1/3.0 ports are already floating around out there...nothing it stock 2.1 though.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] spence341:
I think you will find that the 2.1/3.0 Roms have come a long way. Nils ginger sense is getting great reviews. If you have a spare 30-40 minutes, flash Newts Hybrid. He has fixed a lot of the issues. He just found the 720 cam fix and it also fixed the gallery. No lag in lock screen and no Rosie loading issues. Worth playing with.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mr4r4n:
not saying they havent, the definitely have, i just prefer sense 2.1 everything pretty much, at least for the dinc, only camera and weather do i like @ 3.0
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mr4r4n:
how are the call or call quality issues anything i should know about? i use my phone for work and the extra features are welcome if its stable and wont phantom alot of calls
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Andassaran:
The newest ones are cdma based (evo shift and evo 3d) so the phantom call issue is nonexistent on those
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mr4r4n:
dang just use the older one that is 2.1 through and through and remembered that it has the 3g drop issue
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phonex1:
Hey Nexus S forum! hope everyone's enjoying :) I used to have an iPhone 4 and now after much thinking between the arc and nexus S went for the arc. It is not a bad phone, but I am not satisfied because of the following:

- Battery life sucks, as in with light-moderate usage. For a perspective (since I suck horribly at figuring out how to take a screenshot off the arc), I made an hour long call (59:34 mins to be exact), played around on FPSe for 12 mins, had music playing for around 48 mins, and rest idle with background data off, 3g and wifi off and at low signal areas even airplane mode on.

I get around 16 hrs with just this much usage. I am a heavy user with streaming/music and IM but the battery life drops like a rock once I try any of the two things simultaneously. And it is quite a tease having to keep brightness at minimum all the time.

- Headphones, good headphones, but I cannot use my 3rd party JVC ones which I could with the iPhone. What's the deal? It seems true you need only sony headphones for it...

- Performance: too many browser and ebuddy force closures :( Especially with setcpu on conservative.

Since its a branded arc I cannot tweak it except for apps. Now I am thinking I should have chosen a Nexus S since it is available on Rogers and the screen looks better to me. Camera I haven't checked but from forum pics thread it looks comparable to the iPhone 4 which is a plus anyway.

I am not going back to the iPhone 4 after experiencing android, but I need a better battery life and if not stock then at least the availability to tweak it using a kernel that will take care of it.

So any of you Nexus S users having that great battery life many forum reviews mention? What about after kernel tweaks. I am thinking of keeping the NS untill fall when the SGS2 will be available on Rogers. I am also a bit of a tweaker and the arc while being "sexy" is not modifiable much.

Thanks!!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dplate07:
from my experience, i dont think nexus s battery life will be any longer than arc. anyway it depends very much on the apps that you installed...

my NS battery life is ard 18-20hrs avg, with moderate usage like

-brightness auto

-backgrd sync ( turned off for fb, twitter)

-15 mins of Modern Combat 2

-90mins of Music

-20min of Web browsing

-15 min of Fb-ing

-The rest of the time are left idling...

all these values are approximate values...

hope it helps :)

Note: do check up Manage Applications -> Running to see what apps are running, used to install tap tap revenge and realised from there it sucked lotsa battery juice.
