My wife is very picky about her phone and finally let me root it, so before I redo her setup I want to know what's the best sense rom for you guys, needs to be bug free so she isn't saying "you ****ed my phone up!" Again! She's on synergy now but been experiencing alot of hiccups lately so I want to put her on a stable rom she is comfortable with. Thanks for your help!

IMHO I think the stock rooted gingerbread like jermains stock+ with tinys gingersense kernel are the best combo. Together they are fast, stable, and excelent on battery life.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheWhiteBandito:
Yes, this is your winning combo if you're looking for something rock stable but with that extra edge over just plain old stock.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avenator14:
Id say McTwist is generally stable, snappy and overall awesome!

There was a stock with a Warm theme somewhere, try that. The Warm theme could really help your wife see that something has changed, while not noticing it in use. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1260994

The Warm theme is more refined than any other option, IMO.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] watt9493:
Stock plus with the warm theme and black dialer. Flash tinys kernel (the latest) and use setcpu to make smartassv2 the governor on stock speeds.

if you want something a more updated sense experience i would say go with one of nils or wildstangs roms. they both have a 2.1/3.0 mix, a pure 3.0 rom, and nils has an update 3.5 rom, but at the moment might be better off sticking with gingermix due to memory
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmlusco:
The newest gingertiny kernel has smartass v2 set as the default govener, so you only need setcpu if you want to over/under clock.

[LG Optimus 2x] kitty's_daddy:
Can you use kdz installer or smartflash?

You can find v20f.kdz and v10w.kdz for su660 at my post.

I recommend kdz installer to keep your user data.
[LG Optimus 2x] memeru:
hello sir kitty, can i have the link sir? thank you

one more question, can i format the internal memory and the external memorY?
[LG Optimus 2x] Soulj4h:
check in the development section, a post called .kdz flasher or something like that. use search.
[LG Optimus 2x] kolo2x:
I only used smartflash once and it didn't wipe my internal memory. Ideally, it shouldn't touch your external memory either. Just to be safe, remove the sd card, and backup all your data from the internal memory.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Killercek:
Hi,

i downloaded from opensource.samsung.c_om source code of S5830 firmware, compiled the kernel and i cannot flash it to the phone, after compilig there is two different files zImage has 2,9MB and Image has 6.8MB, i use CWM and function flash kernel, but after flashing it Phone doesnt boot, what iam doing wrong?

Or what kind of source i may use for gingerbread 2.3.3??

For compiling i use: Ubuntu distribution.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] CallMeVentus:
Use adb for the 6MB one and use CWM Manager for the 2MB one .
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Killercek:
Yes, but if i flash "2MB" kernel with CWM using function flash kernel, phone has a boot loop and never don't boot.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] mdfzhi:
u need to use the zimage file.. unpack samsungs default kernel to get ramdisk, and repack the ramdisk with the zimage file. but ur kernel need to have local version matching the module in the ramdisk, or it wouldnt boot.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Killercek:
How i can do it? Im doing it first time :(
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] mdfzhi:
because u already successfully compiled a kernel, i assume u know linux workaround.

first read

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1173427 to unpack the samsung default kernel.

then cd into the module dir which is ramdisk/lib/modules and issue this command

strings fsr.ko | grep vermagic

and it shoud give some output eg

vermagic=2.6.35.7-perf-CL382966 preempt mod_unload ARMv6

take note of the local numbers, in my case above its "-perf-CL382966".

then u need to edit the kernel config file, which is arch/arm/configs/cooper_rev03_defconfig. search for this string

CONFIG_LOCALVERSION="-perf"

and edit it so it matched the local version of the module from the ramdisk eg

CONFIG_LOCALVERSION="-perf-CL382966"

now compile ur kernel. take the result zImage file and repack it back with the ramdisk u unpack earlier.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Killercek:
Oh, thanx a lot, now i compiling new kernel, but after i unpack my old boot.img and watch into ramdisk, there is no file called zImage :/
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] mdfzhi:
if u read carefully the link i gave u earlier, u should know that its the boot.img-kernel file. replace it with ur compiled zimage file.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Killercek:
I do exactly what u wrote, than i flash boot.img with odin as "PDA" but phone has in the boot loop again :(

File: http://www.earth-project.ic.cz/CODE.tar
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] mdfzhi:
what did u edit in the kernel? first u should try to compile plain default without any editing to make sure it even boot.

and u need to compile using the defconfig u edited

make cooper_rev03_defconfig
make

or just

./make_kernel_GT-S5830.sh
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Killercek:
I did't edit anything, i compile only source what i DL from samsung source, but old bootimg have 6,1MB and my 5,9, is that problem?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] mdfzhi:
size is not a problem at all. the size of my highly optimize kernel after compile is just 2.3mb, after repack with ramdisk is just 5.3mb. it boot just fine. maybe u download wrong source? use froyo kernel source for froyo rom, and gb kernel source for gb rom. dont mismatched.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Killercek:
I use: GT-S5830_S5570_EUR_OpenSource.zip from: https://opensource.samsung.com/

For: S5830XEKPH Firmware - Gingerbread 2.3.3.

I would really like, if you can tell me what kind of software and kernel source i may use. :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] mdfzhi:
see, thats the problem. ur compiling froyo kernel for gb rom.

use the GT-S5570_S5670_S5830_Opensource_GB.zip or GT-S5830_Opensource_GB.zip. both for gb. personally i use the second one. and toolchain use Sourcery G++ Lite 2011.03-42 for ARM EABI
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Killercek:
THX!! I will test it! :o) :D :D
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Killercek:
Ok, that is better but not too much, now iam stucked on the screen with text "GALAXY ACE" "GT-S58930" .... i wait for aprox. 30 minutes and nothing happen. :/
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] mdfzhi:
u didnt edit anything rite? if u just compile the stock kernel source with just modifying local version in config file, it should boot.

maybe u should install qtadb and look at the logcat while it boot, and if it stuck, look for the last line in logcat.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Killercek:
I see only that:

20:53:55.859 exec '/system/bin/sh' failed: No such file or directory 2 2) -

Oh, iam on windows :) i don't have linux computer here, iam compiling on my server and i cannot connect phone on it :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] mdfzhi:
that error indicate that the module in ramdisk mismatch with the kernel local version. check again if the module local version matched with the kernel local version in the defconfig file.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Killercek:
THX it working! :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Killercek:
Okey, last question, can i find file in kernel, where is IMEI readed from chip? Because i dont where it is stored, i want use it for "authenticating" :/
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] mdfzhi:
glad it worked :)

imei were stored in a hidden unmounted partition that should not ever be touch. leave it alone, its better that way. besides, i dont know if kernel had anything to do with imei.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Killercek:
Ok, nevermind :) Thank you now im happy :D

Edit: But phone must know how to read imei and must have any func for it :) but as you say, leave it alone.. :)

[LG Optimus 2x] Ninkul:
Don't suppose the SU660's hardware is very different is it..?
[LG Optimus 2x] salisbury_steak:
It's actually very different. For one, the su660 has an antenna to catch Korean TDMB Mobile TV signals.

The closer relatives are the O2X and G2X, yet even those two can't share roms. :(
[LG Optimus 2x] MikuSE610:
They are very different, but some goodies might work like the drivers. Since they have the same chipset.
[LG Optimus 2x] crytic:
Sweet!

I mean yes, the SU660 has a TV receiver and different hardware buttons etc, but still they share the Tegra2 chipset etc so I'm really hoping that at least this leads to a more recent kernel :)

Edit: Well, this is 2.6.32.9 - same version as present in our P990's Froyo source. Just preparing a diff, but chances are pretty high that they just took the same kernel

Could it be the solution to fix FM radio in custom roms?
[LG Optimus 2x] crytic:
Possibly. But I wonder why anyone nowadays would need a FM radio anyways
[LG Optimus 2x] Flix123:
Well, the fm radio doesn't need mobile data connection, so it saves the battery and my internet flat is only until 200mb per month (after that GPRS), so it's better than an internet radio.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] biffroy:
Hello all, I'm new around here but no stranger to the galaxy tab & gt i9000 forums. I've flashed many roms and love every minute of it :)

I lost my original galaxy s last week but luckily my insurance covered it. The company didn't have any in stock, so i was automatically upgraded to the S II, which I received today. RESULT!

Anyways, the development section is HUGE here so i was wondering whether anyone could recommend a rom or two to try out. I upgraded manually to 2.3.5 (XWKI8) and I'm rooted :)

I'm after something fairly close to stock. And by this I mean Samsung stock, I like all their apps etc! But also as themable as possible. On the original galaxy s I was a big fan of darky's rom & also used cm7 as well as a few others. I'm using overcome on my tab and looking forward to trying their rom when it's released...

Any pointers would be really helpful :) *finger Hoovers over thanks button*

[Captivate Accessories] kaintfm:
Hello there, Captivate people! Visitor from the Vibrant forums here. We found and tested an 1800mah battery that, while intended for the Epic Touch 4G, fits and works perfectly in the Galaxy S and all it's variants. I've personally tested it in a Samsung Fascinate and a Samsung Vibrant. The Fascinate was a tighter fit than the Vibrant, but the battery door closed just fine.

I've personally tested the battery over the past week and it lasts significantly longer than the default 1500mah battery (I'm a relatively new Vibrant user, so my battery is only a couple months old). The math seems to match up with the 1800mah claim. To be clear, this isn't as surprising as it would be if this were a random Chinese ebay battery. This battery is made by Samsung for the Epic Touch 4G. It's noticeably thicker than the stock Galaxy S battery, but not so thick that the battery door on the Vibrant and Fascinate won't close completely.

The battery can be found here:

http://www.mobilecityonline.com/wireless/store/productdetail.asp?productid=28506

I spent quite a bit of time trying to find the best 3rd party battery for my phone, and lo and behold, the best one comes from Samsung itself.

If you'd like to read more than just my humble opinion, here is a link to the thread started in the Vibrant forum:

Just received the battery from mobilecity. I was leaving my home as I saw the package, so no photos or long term report. Initial impressions though:

Most importantly, the phone works. I'm typing this on it. The battery came with a 45% charge, so normal.

The battery is a little thicker than the original, and a little heavier. The back cover is slightly tight fitting.

Will try charging in a little.

oem batterys suck considering that the actual capacity cant be 1500mah. I think i read somewhere its something like 1200mah, and i know that has to be the case because with the 1800mah battery i get an increased battery life of 40%.

samsung sock battery 7am-5pm

anker batter 7am-10pm

and to add to that i use my phone to tether for about two hours at night.

oem

anke
[Captivate Accessories] CuriousTech:
If your Samsung is around 2 years old, it's capacity is 1200mAh or less depending on wear.

With a 40% increase of that old battery, it would be at most 1680mAh.

The OEM 1800 is 1800mAh.

Wait until your Anker is 2 years old. lol
[Captivate Accessories] proper69:
My captivate is less than a year old. Typically a battery that is drained on a regular basis will last a lot longer than two years old because it is being used. If a battery is on standby(meaning its not being used just charged everytime it drops some amp hours). I drain my batterys completely and recharge them completely everytime i use them, which in theory should increase the life span of the battery. If you're one of those people who charges the battery for an hour at a time to get 30% more power then your battery will definitely be reduced in amps after a year. To get a more accurate reading i should have measured my samsung stock battery at work when i first got the phone, but i didnt.

Since day 1 the captivate never had great battery life. With kk4 or boojs kj3 kernel i noticed that the battery was a lot better. I'm also a heavy user with more than 20 calls a day, and alot of email, web browsing, bluetooth and gaming.
[Captivate Accessories] CuriousTech:
No. Completely wrong. A full charge to discharge will reduce the life of a lithium cell much faster than keeping it within nominal voltage levels. Where are you getting all this?

Here, this might help clear up some misconceptions:

http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/how_to_prolong_lithium_based_batteries

I tested the OEM 1500 a few months after getting it. Trust me, it was very close to 1500. I can show charts if need be. There's a link in this thread somewhere.
[Captivate Accessories] Silencer96:
Believe it or not, it is. The one that's about $3 on ebay with the "Samsung" logo on it and over 1,000 purchases is the one that I got about 2 months ago. I'm using it up to this very day and the battery life is superb. I have this one in my phone and the original one in my backpack for emergencies in case I run out of battery in school.

Bottom line: trust me, it's worth it ;)
