[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] achyut:
am a noob here, please warn me if i violate any forum rule.

i wanted to say, we can share our xrecovery/CWM recovery backups in this thread. that would be awesome because most of us edit the ROM to suit our need.

i am not able to pst my ROM backup image because am using a very low bandwidth connection, but my ROM will look like following-

1. MAIN ROM - CM6Mini

2. REMOVED - androidterm, carhome,carhome launcher, CMWallapers, development, DSP Manager, genie, HTC_IME, both launchers, live wallpapers, maps, gallery 3d, music, camera, browser, radio, sound recorder, voice dailer, voice search.

3. ADDED - opera mini 6, quick pic, stock sony ericsson 2.1 camera, ginger bread launcher, camera through LWP, uber music, simple task manager, zeam, root explorer 2.15

4. THEME - Beauty Blue.

5. available phone memory - 194MB out of 212 MB.

6. Quadrant score - 1288 with 748MHz overclock.

if you like my idea, kindly press the "THANKS" button :)

Hi all,

can anybody give a tip where to buy original samsung housing for galaxy sII? Mine felt on the road yesterday and the corners on front frame are little damaged :(

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Accessories] peachpuff:
Ebay, just type in i9100 housing http://cgi.ebay.com/Full-Housing-Ba...ltDomain_0&hash=item1e647efecc#ht_5121wt_1163
[Galaxy S II Accessories] ivo47:
have anyone tried yet housing from ebay? is there any difference? worth of buy?

can i keep my back mask and replace only the front one which is damaged?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] mbernstein:
I bought one, but has yet to receive it.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] buxz777:
guys you do know you are literally going to have to swap everything into the new front , vibrate motors , main boards , touch screen , ribbons and connectors etc etc

it really isnt as straight forwards as you think and is a very tricky thing to do especially with the parts you have bought

the easiest way to do it is with the whole front which costs approx £100 , you then only have to move the two boards from the original into the new front as all the other bits are there , with the bits youve bought you will need to transplant the whole insides of the phone

the fasica you have bought is just the plastics

be warned it is going to be a big job , i would look at the full fronts to make things a bit easier itll cost more but in my opinion be worth it
[Galaxy S II Accessories] mbernstein:
I had the camera lens damaged, so will replace only the back part.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] tomqman:
as soon as white housing show up i think i will get one
[Galaxy S II Accessories] sophiemith:
Is that housing from ebay is really original? I doubt. It may be easy to damage or lose some little gadgets that you try to replace the housing yourself.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] ivo47:
i think i'll give up if you say it's a hard job .. i only have a small scratch near the jack and it's not that visible .. but i don't get it .. why would i have do replace the hole thing .. my scratch is above the front camera, on the frame which isn't black, so it's not the back part where jack is and it's not the front part where screen and front camera are .. it's only a frame, why is that so hard to replace :S
[Galaxy S II Accessories] buxz777:
because the whole phone is built into the front screen basically , there are 7 screws on the back , you undo them , use a opening tool to go round the fsica to undo the clips , open up the phone and a think black piece comes off (your volume button and power button will probs fall off so dont loose them) this thin black bit exposes the main boards and the screws that hold them in place ie they are screwed into the front of the phone , you then undo these screws and also undo the ribbon clips that connect the screen etc to the main boards , remove the main boards , you are now left with a front fascia that contains all things like vibrate motors screen connectors , touch screen , bezel etc etc you will be astounded by the design but it isnt the easiest to do fascia swaps :-)

you have removed the main boards etc and now you still have to transplant all the other bits into your empty fascia , like i said not very easy at all , watch the videos on youtube etc it isnt easy

what makes it easier is if you buy this part http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Samsung-G...062?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item3cb9ff0e4e

as you can see it has all the inards built into the front a quick swap of the main boards from your damaged one to this , screw the boards back in , clip on the screen connectors , put the back on with volume buttons and power button in place , do the 7 screws up , wahey job is a good un :-)

it can be done with the parts you have but it is going to make it bloody hard mate :-) it isnt like taking apart a nokia phone , the deisgn is incredible , like i say where it is so thin here is no front back and middle everything is sealed into the front screen and the back clips on and covers it :-)

good luck and i hope that does make some sense :-)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] ivo47:
tnx :D

well, i give up, that's for sure, it's too complicated and not worth od breaking my phone .. i only have a small, not easy visible scratch but it still bothers me but it'll be ok :)

btw... this is the place where my scratch is .. on that thiner, not black frame :)

[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rezn:
I bought this slab for my kids and wanted to get the most of it, of course XDA is where I turn to in my time of need. So, I read all the tutorials and here is where I am at:

1. Rooted with Uruk 1.0

2. Set Comp Cache to 100Mib

3. Set Swap to 100

4. Removed buttons and installed button savior

It still feels sluggish, but definitely better than stock firmware. I realize this thing is not a Ferrari, but I feel it can be snappier. What other tweaks can I do to get maximum horsepower and not care about battery? I want this thing to run full throttle. What can you guys recommend?

Archos 70s
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wokker666:
A few thoughts

This is a good start:D

I think this is what's helping kill you...

Compcache is a chunk set aside from free system ram (we only have 256mb!!!), then compressed - not a very nice operating environment, but helps when theres more in memory than can be held, it'll ship the less used things to the comp - Honestly, I don't think you should go more than 15-25% of total system ram on this setting, you dont want to kill your fast, albiet small memory.

I think swap kinda sucks, even though I keep a small one on my system, but that's mainly because of the smallish spec we have to deal with... I usually dont keep this too big either - everything that gets shipped there by the system takes FOREVER to load. Maybe it works better mounted on a really fast sdcard, but I think it would be negligible.

My thoughts? Set compcache to 24-32mb and swap to 2x your compcache.

What you do with your cpu scaling has a major part to do with power, both horses and battery.

If you don't care about your battery life, set your power management to overdrive, set the cpugovernor to performance, and read up on this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1169625 , it will help you lock your cpu down after boot, so nothing non-SU can hijack your speeds.

Start there, and see how it runs:D
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rezn:
Thanks wokker! You provided some great information and helped me understand those compcache and swap settings better. I am going to try everything and do your suggestions and then will let you know how it goes.

Some other tweaks you can try with a rooted Archos is the SuperCharger Script: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=991276. I used Option 6 - Balanced. If you need to change your busybox version download

Busybox from Stephen (Stericson)

And

SD Speed Increase

Oh and turn off Live wallpapers, as nice as it looks it really bogs down the tablet!
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wokker666:
I've been using AutoKiller Memory Optimizer - and from what I read in the link above is that this SuperCharger script is pretty much the same - but what about the other tweaks AKMO allows, does the SC script change those settings too?

Honestly, I like AKMO (enough to donate even!), and have been using it for sometime on my G1 and A101 (with great success, it really helps optimize everything), but don't like the load time at boot to enact all the settings, so if there's a way to script the changes I want, I would rather that.

Anyone with a bit more linux/android knowledge care to help? (I only know enough to be dangerous!)
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zeppelinrox:
Nope.

Nothing does what V6 SuperCharger does.

Not AKMO, Not AMM, not any minfree tweaker.

Because nothing actually fixes messed up OOM Groupings and Priorities.

As proof, nothing eliminates launcher redraws.

Except for V6.

As for the other tweaks, I'm including pretty much all the best tweaks that I can find with V8 SuperCharger - I want to implement a total system optimization.

For starters, see the following post for the 3G TurboCharger and Kick Ass Kernel Tweaks...

3G TurboCharger and Kick Ass Kernel Tweaks

You can modify the 3G script to add metalspring's additional build.prop entries
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wokker666:
Are these going to work alright on our systems?

V6 seems to be doing alright, but I had to heavily modify the KickAssKernel script to work on my system, and even then, I could only get the kernel tweaks to take, none of the cfq io scheduler tweaks, normalized sleeper, or noatime are going, but I'm not familiar enough with linux commands to really control the situation.

This is how I got the kernel tweaks to run:

sysctl -w vm.swappiness=0
sysctl -w vm.oom_kill_allocating_task=0
sysctl -w vm.panic_on_oom=0
sysctl -w vm.dirty_background_ratio=60
sysctl -w vm.dirty_ratio=95
sysctl -w vm.min_free_kbytes=4096
sysctl -w vm.vfs_cache_pressure=10
sysctl -w kernel.panic=0
sysctl -w kernel.panic_on_oops=1
sysctl -w kernel.msgmni=2048
sysctl -w kernel.msgmax=64000
sysctl -w kernel.shmmax=268435456
sysctl -w kernel.sem='500 512000 64 2048'
sysctl -w kernel.sched_features=24189
sysctl -w kernel.hung_task_timeout_secs=0
sysctl -w kernel.sched_latency_ns=18000000
sysctl -w kernel.sched_min_granularity_ns=1500000
sysctl -w kernel.sched_wakeup_granularity_ns=3000000
sysctl -w kernel.sched_compat_yield=1
sysctl -w kernel.sched_shares_ratelimit=256000
sysctl -w kernel.sched_child_runs_first=0
sysctl -w kernel.threads-max=5000
sysctl -w net.core.wmem_max=524288
sysctl -w net.core.rmem_max=524288
sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_tw_recycle=1
sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_rmem='6144 87380 524288'
sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_wmem='6144 87380 524288'
sysctl -w vm.dirty_writeback_centisecs=2000
sysctl -w vm.dirty_expire_centisecs=1000

The KickAssKernel would return ALOT of errors, until I cleaned it up to the above, then it all took just fine.

I would really like to get the other tweaks going... any suggestions?... Seems these systems with the Uruk CFW dont play exactly the same as others...

EDIT: I have tried the KickAssKernel Installer, the kernel tweaks take, but everything else (cfq, sleeper, etc.) errors out with a syntax error: unexpected line - I have tried to clean the cfq code in it's simplest form to:

for i in $(ls -d /sys/block/*)
do
echo "cfq" > $i/queue/scheduler
done

Does anyone know if JIT vm is enabled in UrukDroid?
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zeppelinrox:
It may be a busybox issue. What version are you running?
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wokker666:

[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zeppelinrox:
Try...

for i in /sys/block/*/queue/scheduler
do
echo noop > $i
done

To see what schedulers that you have available type this in terminal:

cat /sys/block/*/queue/scheduler

You'll see a bunch of lines that look like this "noop anticipatory deadline [cfq]"

The one in the brackets is what is being used, the others are available options.

For our phones, noop or deadline are preferable.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wokker666:
That worked, got my scheduler running noop now, it was running anticipatory - after reading up on the different schedulers, dosen't seem efficient for flash memory that's for sure!

[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wokker666:
Heh, I wouldn't worry about it, I'm pretty positive everyone here on xda, and everywhere else really appreciates your work, keep it up!!!

One thing I might suggest (if it's even possible), you may want to put some cpu governor settings and locks in your script, make a few different choices available.

I've really noticed a huge difference in performance ever since I reset the gov, and locked in the settings so nothing non-SU can hijack the values. (It may not be for your script though, so many different units out there with wildly different specs)

This is the gov / lock script I use: (thank you arpruss!)

cd /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq
echo interactive > scaling_governor
chmod 644 scaling_max_freq
echo 100000 > scaling_max_freq
chmod 444 scaling_max_freq
chmod 644 scaling_min_freq
echo 800000 > scaling_min_freq
chmod 444 scaling_min_freq

This has completely locked my cpu to progs that arent determined enough to use SU capability, i.e. Netflix (likes to clock you down when more is needed)

Reference thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1169625

You may also (again, if it's possible) want to leave *vm.swappiness=0* as a choice to the user - some like to use compcache and swap, and if the kernel tweak goes thru unchecked, the user will have their swap disabled and not even know it, and to boot, the system will start the swap services, reserve the space for them, and just never use them!
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zeppelinrox:
I had thought about including overclocking related settings but decided against it as I'm pretty sure that no one set of tweaks would apply to all roms.

I was actually going to leave the swappiness out for the same reason - not all roms have swap. But I forgot to remove it :p
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wokker666:
Not so much overclock settings, because alot of roms out there don't have OC kernels, but more like 'processing efficiency' settings.

Pretty much every rom has the basic governor settings, and most of those go a little beyond offering a couple more, but not all of them give a clear cut way to select what you want.

Maybe throw some basic settings in the script - ondemand, powersave, conservative, performance - and maybe even throw in interactive for those who can use it in their roms.

*Just the thoughts of a crazy, rambling perfomance junkie* :D

I made a change to 3g TurboCharger that needs testing...

Edits to build.prop...

ro.ril.hsxpa=3
ro.ril.gprsclass=34
ro.ril.hep=1
ro.ril.enable.dtm=1
ro.ril.hsdpa.category=28
ro.ril.enable.a53=1
ro.ril.enable.a52=0
ro.ril.enable.3g.prefix=1
ro.ril.htcmaskw1.bitmask=4294967295

ro.ril.hsupa.category=9
ro.ril.def.agps.mode=2

ro.ril.enable.sdr=1
ro.ril.enable.gea3=1
ro.ril.enable.fd.plmn.prefix=23402,23410,23411
ro.ril.disable.power.collapse=0

Difference between this and update 2:

ro.ril.gprsclass=34 (instead of 12)

ro.ril.htcmaskw1=268449905 (instead of 14449)

I've actually seen gprsclass=32 in the past but 12 is the most common setting so I had used 12.

After researching today, seems that 32 would indeed be better than 12 BUT there is a new gprs class 34 so this would be a first for testing it at 34! (as far as I know) lol

So, I'd be interested in seeing if this is better than the 3G TurboCharger update 2 tweak!
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wokker666:
I'm pretty positive none of us here on the Gen 8 forum can help you with this, as we do not have 3g radios in our tablets - I will, however, be happy to fire up my Dream when I have a chance and do some testing on that :)
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zeppelinrox:

Anyway, the first 2 lines would work better with this instead:

Just as the question states, I was going to go to the Sprint store on my way to work this evening and buy a Evo 3D. However the Sprint account is in my wife's name. I have been able to go up to the same store and upgrade her line for her, get our phones repaired etc. But this will be my first time charging a phone to it.

But my question is, since the account is in my wife's name. Does she has to be present in order for me to bill the account?

The store is an hour drive away for us. But it's near where I work. That's why I wanted to do it then.

If you have the password and pin # to the account you should be all set at any Sprint store. A phone call would be my first choice,to the closest Sprint store. :)
