Totally agree. Only if the dim in autobrightness can come down a tad more ;)

[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
I dont know about all that... I like the settings the way they are. They fit my needs perfectly!
[HTC EVO 3D] mwalt2:
It can go from 2 mA to 1 mA. I kind of like 2 mA. They don't even really look like they're on in a well-lit room, but there's enough to not have any problems using it in the dark. I can see what 1 mA looks like though. I don't know if the autobrightness you're referring to is the screen. If so, this kernel does not change anything. It just changes the min/max values for the screen, but autobrightness profile is controlled by a file in framework-res.apk. There's a thread about it here somewhere.

My first attempt at the 2-way call recording didn't work. I'll have to go back through the files and see what I did wrong. Hopefully I can get it working before too long.

I don't think any overclocking kernel has been stable that I've seen. ziggy/bcnice/klquicksall all seem to have people reporting random restarts and worse performance when overclocking it enabled. faux123 seems to have done a lot of work with it for the sensation and found some of the things that need to be changed from the old way of doing it with single or synchronous dual cores.
[HTC EVO 3D] brol1k:
Yea i was referring to the screens autobrightness. In the wm days there was a mod where we were able to set the dim minimum value and max brightness value in the auto brightness.

[HTC EVO 3D] mwalt2:
Here's another explanation as to why overclocking is challenging with these new processors (and probably also explains why quadrant scores suffered when I disabled HTC's performance lock on one of the earlier versions).

Does this potentially fix the PPTP over 3G?

I just tried builtin VPN in the phone and it still says Server Hung up.

Will it potentially work with WIFI Tether now and allow PPTP to pass through.

What exactly is working now w.r.t. VPN

Thanks
[HTC EVO 3D] ch1naski:
Are you saying wifi tether is not working over 3g with this kernel?

Nandroids are for sissies.

ok i have been havving some random reboots with my Synergy 3DvO ROM and im going to try this kernel to see if it fixes...is there a version without the dimmed leds? just wondering

i will report back later
[HTC EVO 3D] sudhirkhanger:
Sorry, what are capacitive LEDs and what does notify timer on does?
[HTC EVO 3D] mwalt2:
Unless you just want the notification light to not shut off, it's the stock kernel from the 2.3.4 ROM. Stock=stable until people figure out how to overclock/tweak the new cpu.

Capacitive LEDs are the buttons on the bottom (home, menu, etc.). Notification light is the blinking green light when you have a notification (missed call for example if you have that option enabled). Stock behavior is to stop blinking (ie notifying you) after 5 minutes.
[HTC EVO 3D] .:[K]!nG_D:.:
soo the capacitive leds have to be dimmed in order for the notification led to stay on?

ya thats why i wanted to try this kernel because i think the ziggy kernel is the culprit for my reboots
[HTC EVO 3D] mswlogo:
No, that's not what I'm saying.

Wifi tether works fine over 3G, you just cannot VPN over it using pptp.

After reading up on VPNC I now understand what mwalt added. He added support for folks on cisco vpn servers.

Mwalt, do you have any idea what work might be needed to fix pptp?

You'd be a lot folks hero if you could fix it. I suspect it's the kernel
[HTC EVO 3D] mwalt2:
No, they are separate. Do you want a version that is just stock except the notification led will stay in until dismissed?
[HTC EVO 3D] mwalt2:
I just added the tun support by googling it and changing 1 line in the make file ;-) . I can see if there is a similar way to add pptp support.
[HTC EVO 3D] ch1naski:
gotcha.

Nandroids are for sissies.

[HTC EVO 3D] .:[K]!nG_D:.:
ya man thats exactly what i want ha! that would be sweet
[HTC EVO 3D] .:[K]!nG_D:.:
welllll im back!

im now at 9% battery and have had no lockups or reboots! i was right seems like it was a kernel issue im glad i finally got that sorted out

this thing is nice and smooth thanks mwalt2!

i did find 1 issue when i hold the power button to go into the 4in1 options it wont boot into recovery or boot loader

EDIT: WOOOOOTTTTT just made it 24 hours and no reboot so im pretty happy!!
[HTC EVO 3D] INebilim:
mWalt thanks for the timer LED variant, I love you! <3
[HTC EVO 3D] mwalt2:
4in1 reboot works fine for me with my ROM and this kernel (just not the hot reboot, which doesn't work on the evo 3d as far as I know). I compiled you a version with regular LED brightness and the notification LED mod so it doesn't shut off. It's on my machine at home, so I'll get you a link later tonight.

It was easy enough to do and seems there's others who wanted it as well.
[HTC EVO 3D] .:[K]!nG_D:.:
thanks man your awesome! its been about 37 hours not reboots so im a happy camper. i can wait till later tonight ha
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
It does work. But there seems to be conflicts with certain apps that cause it not to work. On a clean flash with no apps installed it works. Install an app and it breaks, lol
[HTC EVO 3D] .:[K]!nG_D:.:
Ya i first noticed when I wanted to restart into recovery to reset batt stats and it never did it just powered off lol

FYI, I had a problem with audio skipping when i was on this kernel (in any audio app, reboot didnt help). I switched to another and it got resolved.

[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Strange. I have this in CleanROM 2.5 and no one has complained of that.

Unlikely a bad flash. IF he had a bad flash he would have major issues like no boot, no wifi, etc... Its something else not liking change. I would clear all cache / dalvik and see what happens.

[HTC EVO 3D] dodgeboy:
Thank you for this kernel. I'm finally able to use Cisco Anyconnect VPN, and have seen no adverse effects from installing the kernel. I really appreciate it.
[HTC EVO 3D] mwalt2:
I haven't had much time to add the in-call recording stuff. There seem to be several other kernels now, even a few with the dimmed LEDs. If you want to overclock and want to try to use in-call recording, there's a tiamat kernel for sense evo 3d here. I haven't tested it, but according the the commits, it has the 2-way in-call recording in it.

This kernel is stock other than 5 lines with some values changed and none of should affect audio. It probably was a conflict between some software/ROM and this kernel (which would probably also be seen on a completely stock kernel).

Glad you like it.
[HTC EVO 3D] mshnayde:
so is there a modified version of this kernel with capacitative buttons off as well? Thanks.

flash your desired rom once more.

Before flashing any rom, just perform a factory reset, then flash your rom. After flashing the rom, preform a factory reset...it is always safe and it solves many problem!

Hi,

Originally i rooted the phone by using odin to install cwm and then install vodoo lagfix and gummycharged FE 2.0, now i would like to restore the phone to factory froyo the way it originally was, can you please point me how to do this?

Do i just need just flash with odin an original rom designed for odin? do i need to do something in cwm, if you can please point me in the right direction.

btw i know the voodoo lagfix change the filesystem to ext4, does it matter if it has to be flashed with odin, does it take the filesystem into account as well?

thanks

This thread is all you need. You will need to use the PIT file to restore your partition tables to rfs, and one of the stock roms to get the software back to stock.

[Verizon Droid Charge] hazard209:
You need to download the stock EE4 Odin file HERE and the PIT file HERE. Power down your phone, remove your battery, connect it to your computer, hold volume down to enter download mode, reinsert the battery once Odin recognizes your phone. Load the stock EE4 file in the PDA section and the PIT file in the PIT section. Check the box that says "Re-partition" and uncheck the other boxes. Press start and you should be good to go.

You do not have to worry about your filesystem type.
[LG Optimus 2x] .:george:.:
Hi guys, I am facing a weird problem. A month ago my phone told me it couldn't access my sdcard, I had to put it in my computer and I found out that every file was 4kB (cluster size) big. Had to format it, lost all my data. Today similar thing happened, when I was listening to music, player suddenly stopped saying that it couldn't play this filetype. When I mounted my card in computer, all files were just gone. No warning at all.

I am running cm7 latest nightly.

What do you think? Faulty device, sdcard or maybe a virus? Has anyone experienced this?

Thank you for answers, always appreciated.

I've been running CM nightlys since two months and never run into such problem. My guess would be that something happened to the SD or some virus.
[Galaxy S II General] karthigan:
Hi Guys!

It's been a while since I been in the Andriod loop (last time was when I was dealing with X10a ; which was sold to a friend of a mine, whom damaged the USB slot, frying the entire MB, which is replaced and he is using it...)

Anyways, I got rid of my iPhone 4 for my cousin, who needed 4.3.3 jailbroken, with installous, cydia tweaks, etc. He is happy with it! :)

I am in the market for a new phone, I decided to check back on the Android world, and SII got my attention.

First of all, as I am in GTA (Toronto-Canada), where can I buy an unlocked, unbranded Galaxy SII phone? I have a hard time trusting kijiji or craiglist, etc.

Secondly, if the first option above is not available, can I buy the Bell Canada version, and have it unlocked and debranded? If so, where would I start in terms of debranding back to stock firmware & unlocking methods?

Third, I know an LTE version (1.5 Ghz processor upgrade, 4.5" screen, etc.) is coming out, probably end of the year to the beginning of the next year, should I just hold off? I don't mind buying the SII now, and get the LTE later.

Thanks.

From what I can determine, unlocking this phone is easy as pie.

There is an app for it.

You will pay a premium for an unlocked phone when it is apparently very easy.

Get it from Bell, best buy, Costco, wherever, and do the dirty work yourself.

Oh and Welcome Back!!! Android loves you, apple does not know you from a hole in the wall :)
[Galaxy S II General] marcadam:
Good decision. I recently sold my iphone4 and traded up to a galaxy s2 which is without doubt the better of the two.
[Galaxy S II General] Raspster:
The SGS2 is the best phone I have ever used. I actually enjoy surfing the web on it better than my home desktop. It's just as smooth on the web as the iphone 4 and with full flash running in the background! The batt life on the iphone 4 was the only thing keeping me with it until the SGS2 which has simular batt life as the iphone 4. It really is an amazing piece of hardware!
[Galaxy S II General] calexus1182:
There's something wrong with your sgs2 then. When I had the iphone4 it barely made it to the evening.

Have maybe a 250% increase in battery life with the SGS2
[Galaxy S II General] saffant:
The iPhone 4 is known to have a better battery life than the Galaxy SII. However, that doesn't make it any where near close to as outstanding as the Galaxy.

@op

To Unlock: Download Odin3 v1.85 from here.

Then download this kernel from here.

-unzip the above file and it will unzip itself to CF-Root-SGS2_ZS_OZS_KG2-v4.1-CWM4.tar (TAR File)

-Fire up ODIN and under 'PDA' browse to the above mentioned .tar file.

-Place your phone on download mode (either USB jig, or boot it up while holding vol down+home+power)

-once in download mode, plug in to the computer.

-everything should be default settings in ODIN,butmake sure repartition and flashlock IS NOT ticked.

-click start

Now you're rooted and can proceed to unlock the phone and/or flash a custom rom.

PS: If your wanna buy the phone outright, try omegacell(dot)com; they're based in Canada (Edmonton).
[Galaxy S II General] shr33kant:
May I just say welcome to the best phone money can buy! If you're comfortable with jailbreak then i wouldn't worry about unbranded phone. You can just flash a custom rom. And I'm pretty sure I saw an unlocking thread in the development section.

The instructions in post #8 refer to rooting, not unlocking.

For unlocking (once rooted) use this app...

in terms of battery, ip4 loose completely for not having a user replaceable battery.

for the sgs2, i just need to invest some money to buy a stand alone charger and a spare battery, my phone will never need to be plug to a charger. i can use it 24/7.

example, using battery A, while battery B is fully charged and standing by.

browse the web & play HD games for 5 hours, battery A depleted,

swap battery B and let battery A charge. continue playing game using battery B.

friends iphone4, browse the web & play HD games for 5 hours,

battery depleted, hook ip4 to charger and wait 2 hours for it to charge,

stare at me jealousy while i continue playing with my phone.

;-) the jealous stare is priceless!
[Galaxy S II General] Raspster:
It's all about the apps you have running. I recently did a format and started from scratch and my SGS2 lasts alot longer. Same for the iPhone. I had to re-install all my apps one by one to see what the rouge app was. I admit, Android has more apps that can put strain on phone and possibly cripple batt life but lets face it, there is soooooo much more running in the background on android and for the batt life I am getting with my SGS2 is totally fine. I take mine off the charger around 7am. At around 10pm I'm at around 30%. That's good enough for me!
[Galaxy S II General] calexus1182:
When did that happened?

I know 11 people with iphone4 (I jailbraked them all)

And everyone complained about the battery and reception.

If you are still looking for a phone check out Pacific mall there area bunch of stores that will sell the international version of the phone or the bell of contract.

I heard the Rogers version is coming out at the end of the month. Big issue I see with lte version is that the data plans aren't changing the largest data plan on Rogers is 6 gigs and on lte you will go through that in no time.
[Galaxy S II General] jonny68:
That's another thing i didn't know about the iPhone 4, you seriously cannot get a replaceable battery that is madness what happens if the battery fails what do they do then,then again you'd expect nothing less from Apple, i hear in order to change your ringtone you have to plug the phone via USB into your laptop/PC, that again is tragic, you cant change wallpapers either and no such thing as widgets.

Tell you what Apple would be lost only for their marketing team,they are the real reason why they sell so many iPhones with their aggressive marketing policy and people like sheep go out and purchase in their droves.

I rooted mine for wireless tether for free. You can always unroot the device. I am wanting to see if I can put touch sense 3.0 on it. You can also remove any apps that come preinstalled on the device. It's really a personal question, no right answer.
[Motorola Photon 4G] mikel719:
Rooting will let you use various apps that require root, like titanium back up, root explorer and wifi tether. If you would want to go back to stock you would just flash the latest update.sbf and you would be stock and unrooted.

Unlocking you're boot loader is a different story. doing that would allow you to flash the custom recovery and flash a rom and custom kernel. There are threads in the Dev section if you are interested in rooting and unlocking.

In more specific directions it means to move the downloaded file misc.img to /sdcard , then to type the command "dd if=/sdcard/misc.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p17 misc.img" without quotes. The rest just means it'll be different on other devices.
