A little guide for getting the best custom tailored performance in Nik's rom

what do you need:

-an inredible S with nik's rom installed

-Titanium backup pro or Titanium backup free + an app that let's you freeze apk's

-OC/UV beater

-Lord kernel v5

-battery calibration

NOTICE: if you already tinkered with your ROM it will be best to start from scratch

-Boot into recovery, flash Nik's Rom (if you have not already), reboot back into recovery (press volume down when countdown for reboot starts, keep pressing button untill reboot finished), now flash Lord kernel V5 (yes, use lord kernel, not RCmix) and reboot the phone, set it up as usual and install any alternative apps you would like to use (i mean apps already included in rom, but where you prefer others for, ex: SMS,Music,Dialer,etc)

- now install titanium backup, battery calibration and OC/UV beater, after that go to settings/tweaks/rosie options/quick scroll and set to all 2D, then settings/tweaks/display options/autobrightness and set to sloppy, then settings/tweaks/system/enable/disable commands and install virtuous OC deamon, now reboot your phone

-after reboot open oc/uv beater and set wake gov:smartassV2,wake min:122000, wake max:1305600, sleep gov:conservative, sleep min:122000, sleep max:460800. now press 'perm activate', then press the settings key on your phone and goto 'ocsettings', set all options to 'ProfileVOC1', close OC/UV beater and open superuser, press the settings button and choose preferences. set automatic response to allow and untick 'notifications', close app

-now charge up your phone to 100%, open battery calibration and press on the 'battery calibration' button. unplug the phone, and it's important now to leave it unplugged untill the battery hits 20% or lower (best calibration)

-reboot the phone in recovery mode and make a backup

-last thing to do now, open titanium backup pro, go to backup/restore and freeze everything you plan on not using (tap program, then tap 'freeze'), make sure you don't freeze OS critical stuff. there are many lists on what is safe to remove/freeze on sense rom's : example. Do not remove at first, but freeze !!!!!

now run your ROM for a few days, if everything is working as it should go back into titanium backup and uninstall all frozen apps (tick app, then tick uninstall)

If not everything is working as it should, start unfreezing apps that you suspect of being the culprit and test

-after all this, you have a tweaked out rom with great speed, maximum free memory and good battery life !

wat is this?

gr8 effort but it seems more like "how i setup my rom" more than a guide..

sry if i sound arrogant or offensive..
[HTC Incredible S] Psyloid:
Well, people PM'd me asking how i set up my rom, ansd they wanted a NOOB guide, so this is it ..

no offence taken, for a experienced user, this is offcourse worthless ... ;)

PS: got any recomendation on how to rename the topic then?

Edit: renamed it to NOOBGUIDE
[HTC Incredible S] Silas_:
I think only one of them is possible. In this case virtuous OC (VOC) is active.
[HTC Incredible S] Psyloid:
fixed that then, thanks
[HTC Incredible S] santhoshpirate:
ya and add that by saying to apply the USB fix patch.
[HTC Incredible S] Psyloid:
No need for that on my phone, usb is working fine ...
[HTC Incredible S] santhoshpirate:
Ok ... I applied ur settings and got

1.3 GHz and 3167 quadrant score..

But my phones battery is heating up pretty quick, Is it normal?

Thanks..
[HTC Incredible S] Psyloid:
It's normal that your phone get's a bit hot under high load (43° Celcius is ok for example) If you think its getting too hot, set wake max to 1.2Ghz, not every phone is the same, all depends on the CPU. as long as it does not freeze or reboot, you are pretty much okay
[HTC Incredible S] santhoshpirate:
Okay I will try that and tell you..

And for battery calibration I fully charged and clicked the calibration button and it showed calibration is succeeded and I unplugged the device.... Is that correct ? And what now?

Thanks
[HTC Incredible S] mandeep294:
dat is correct..wat now??nothing jst use ur phone normally
[HTC Incredible S] Shinobee:
lol yea and use your phone till your battery at least less than 20% charge it till full again.. at least 2 cycles you will see the improvement of your battery... don't trust the first cycle of your battery drain..
[HTC Incredible S] deeroll:
nice advices, thanks!
[HTC Incredible S] Shinobee:
Is the OCVUBeater stick after reboot?
[HTC Incredible S] Psyloid:
if you do

they do stick yes, because they will activate on boot,battery,charger
[HTC Incredible S] deeroll:
thx 4 guide)

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phrsoft2003:
Hi all,

I'm using the SE.Tweaked ROM on my Arc.

[ROM] ARC/ARC S |SE.TWEAKED| V0.7 |22/10/11|

It's almost perfect, but recently I noticed a problem when I was on the road and using a few apps at a time. The memory manager seems to be overly aggressive.

If I have a few apps running, when I would for example view a site in Opera and switch to the music player to go to the next track, and back to Opera, I would loose the site I opened.

When I opened some larger site in the browser, it would even stop PowerAmp playing in the background.

Is this a known issue or is there a fix?

Thanks
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] electrash:
I think he have auto task killer.

Ask dev of that rom.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Beppemi:
I'using this rom to, and i dont have this kind of issue... check if you have an aggressive task killer... ;);)
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sinkster:
festa20's rom has a minfree scripts built in similar to the supercharger scripts, speeds it up but may have negative effects also.

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kormatoes:
Really well I wi bring him to this thread ok lads and you never changed anything ?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sinkster:
posted on his thread that using supercharger caused huge lags, think the home is locked in memory, plus festa has applied sysctl, and other tweaks, which are great though conflict with individual scripts like Zeppelinrox, juwe, etc.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NoEnd:
Hi Guys,

As you know that the first security breach was facing a picture in front of the phone and it will unloacked!!!!

The one i found today is:

so google how are you going to fix that???
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] HooloovooUK:
It's not supposed to be secure. It's only as secure as slide-to-unlock.

But thanks for posting some pics of some hot twins.:D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kristovaher:
You have no idea what face unlock is for apparently. Please refer to FAQ thread. This here should be locked or removed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mnemoch:
Tough crowd. Jeez...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ghost010:
GOOGLE! how you fix theeeesss?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] winwiz:
dude, that't not nice!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Neville.Holland:
LOL very good...

Mmmmmm twins...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ChongoDroid:
But ooh so funny...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] case0:
No sense of humour then?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Desca:
Wow, is this for real?

Jesus christ.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Crin:
No sense of satire?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jeandujardin01:
get rid of one of them ...

soooo... twins wouldn't trust each other with their phones uh ??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
OP did you really expect Google to make face unlock work for a person but not their identical twin?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FISKER_Q:
Just check for a beard or lack thereof, the evil twin will have one.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Emama:
Even if the phone can check the fuxkin DNA it wont't distinguish identical twins
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shenye:
Google have commented on this. Face unlock is a fun feature, NOT for security. This is why if you add certificates to your phone, you will no longer be able to use face unlock feature.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chrono_Tata:
Man, if only the Galaxy Nexus came with a humour detection software as well as face detection software huh.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] go2mo2:
Truth mate, seems xda is very lacking in fun these days
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ericshmerick:
This.

People are acting like the CIA director is going to set up his phone using face unlock then lose his phone. Some hipster will find a photo of said CIA director on his iPhone, hold it to the GNEX and cause world war III with unfettered access to highly sensitive information.

Face unlock is more of a proof of concept and a neat-o feature.

It ends there. If you need real security, this cutsie feature is not for you.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ghost010:
people,really?

this is a joke... sjees get some humor.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tjotte:
Epic!

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] batjon:
is there anyone out there willing to make a custom rom or port a version on cyanogenmod for the people without unlocked bootloaders? I used to have x10 mini pro and people were able to install custom roms without needing custom kernel and it would be amazing if we could too.

Anyone?

thanks
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Black_jackss:
I know 1 custom rom,based on stock,unlock bootloader can use it

but it has .42 fw
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] jaxzkeren:
+1 too ... or maybe we can use someone CWM ? I mean someone with unlock and custom rom, save or backup in CWM ... can we just use his backup on loock bootlader ?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] n01un0:
HELP!!.....I downloaded and installed Treve's app to remove CIQ

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1247108

After I downloaded and installed, I ran the first option of remove CIQ. It said successful and then said please reboot.

When I rebooted, all I get now is the boot screen that says Samsung Galaxy SII and then it just sits there.

Did I brick my phone?

Background info: My phone is rooted but not with a custom rom or kernal or odin. It is completely stock and I rooted using sfhub's method.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cidica:
You didn't brink it. I would suggest that you go to this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1351761

download the stock rom and get the pit file for it as well and read up on odin real quick and reflash your phone with this rom to go back to stock. Also the post you linked is for HTC phones not Samsung from what I can see with a quick glance of it. If you want to reroot and remove CIQ I would suggest getting one of the roms from this section that already has CIQ removed from it and not using that app again.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ewalk4866:
I don't know if you are bricked. But why would you flash something for the HTC phones when you have a Samsung its really not to hard to find what you need you just had to look in our dev section and you would have found your answer there to remove ciq
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] eman3316@optonline.net:
Sfhub's rooting method is super easy, so easy that people that shouldn't be rooting can now root!

My suggestion is run the .tar file like mentioned above. Once you are back to stock, you might want to read a lot before flashing anything again...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] n01un0:
I didn't flash anything previously. I just installed an app and bought the key in the market.

While that forums heading is regarding HTC phones, on page 11 is where the app actually is listed and the description states that it is for all phones including Samsung.

I am able to do volume up and power and get to the Samsung options of factory reset but when I choose this, it pops up asking for password. What would that be or is it just my own lockscreen password?

Edit: Yes my lockscreen password is the password. Did the factory reset and it is still coming up to only the Samsung screen.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bluefire808:
Agreed, a good amount these people really shouldn't be flashing anything cause they don't even understand at all what it is they are actually doing. They just hear about it and assume its got to be easy cause they own a pc and can operate windows explorer. I can't tell you how many times people start a thread about if they bricked there phone when 99% of then haven't bricked it at all. which is completely obvious to any one who knows there way around android and get what it its there actually doing to there phone. I feel really bad for the OP and all the others who attempt to flash things without a clue as to whats going on. OP ( which means original poster, aka the guys who started the thread ) you need to search for a stock recovery .tar and run it using odin and you will be fine. Just like the guy above started. Can't figure out odin or aint sure what it is? Use your new best friend www.google.com to find the answer including the one thats already answered in post several times with the same topic name that this one is. nothing is wrong with your phone that can't easily be un done. You will be fine. Pm me if you really can't figure it out amigo
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] n01un0:
Ok guys, is the purpose here at XDA to help others or just talk down to them and belittle them for not being android guru's?

While I completely and graciously appreciate your advice and help, I am 42 not 15. Also, while I am far from having the extensive knowledge that most of you have, I am not a n00b to all of it and have a pretty good understanding or roms, flashing, etc.

Back to the topic. Again, I did not flash anything. I installed an app. While I agree that I could have found everything needed here in the e4gt forum to remove ICQ (which I did previously but didn't flash), I decided to try the app created by TrevE because it also states that it is for Samsung too, even though it is in the HTC forum and the post topic states HTC.

I installed the app because it also has many additional privacy options, not just CIQ. I did my homework (at least I thought I did) and read everything there and here before doing so. I did not just see something shiny and install it without at least knowing the parameters. Also, since I wasn't flashing anything, I thought installing an app would be safer. If it worked great, if it didn't just uninstall it. Again, since TrevE states that it is also for Samsung, I thought I would be safe.

I guess I will have to do what most of you mentioned and just have to use

[ODIN][STOCK][TAR] SPH-D710.EG30_CL435803_REV05_user.tar.md5

I was just asking for advice if there was another method or something I was overlooking before taking that route.

As always, thank you guys for your help and your advice. Just remember, at some point you were n00bs too ;) Much love and respect to all who contribute, help and teach.........Happy Thanksgiving to all!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] eman3316@optonline.net:
Why are you so against using the TAR file? It will get you back up and running and then you can root with the same process that you used the first time.

My apologies for my prior post, we have all been there and done that. I lack sleep right now...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] _MetalHead_:
I did the exact same thing the other day and had the exact same results. I ended up flashing a stock kernel with cwm, then flashed a ROM and was able to get it to boot. I didn't wipe when I flashed so I was able to recover all my data. My next step is to use the stock tar, then I'm gonna run the auto root and restore all my data with titanium.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] n01un0:
Just lazy, LOL.

It seems like a lot of work and was I just praying and hoping for a quick fix or something that I may have been overlooking to fix it.........plus I didn't want to loose all my data and go through the headache of spending three hours setting up and reinstalling everything.

Will this increase my Odin count?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] n01un0:
LOL, ya I just seen your posts in that thread. Somehow I must have missed page 37, LOL. This could have saved me a lot of headaches and more time for beer and football today, hahaha.

Happy Turkey Day! Gobble Gobble Drink Drink!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] n01un0:
WOOOOOWHOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

Just Odin'd stock tar and she booted right up.....

Now I just gotta change settings and install everything back and then re-root......PITA but at least it's better than a $200 paperweight, LOL
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Everyone should have a copy of the full stock tar. If your phone has any kind of power, its almost always able to be saved
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] k0nane:
The lesson here is to read things before jumping blindly in and phailing up your device.

The only method to remove CIQ from Samsung devices is my noCIQ series of mods (which are included in many custom ROMs).
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] n01un0:
Lesson learned.......

Even though TrevE said it works for Samsung, it did'nt. I shoulda just did the noCIQ from Konane that I originally downloaded. I was just hoping some of the other privacy issues addressed in TrevE's apk would be in noCIQ.

Great work Konane and thanks for your contributions.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nyoknying:
can you please share how to access the IQ Client in Samsung Phones? Thanks in advance :confused:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] subcypher:
I did the exact same thing too! And the one time I didn't run a backup was the one time I needed it. If you aren't rooted, root. If you don't have a custom ROM, now's the time. No CIQ in Calkulin's!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] playya:
@OP glad you fixed your phone because a bricked phone is no fun. Although I know you may of gotten upset at this statement. I have to agree that too many people root their phones with out even understanding how to repair it if something goes wrong. Not for nothing but my phone cant boot up its wiping caches then trying to flash a new rom. If that dont work then its time to pray...

Like I said glad you fixed it and no disrespect but the statement above especially read a lot before flashing is something more people need to do... IMHO
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DCRocks:
Heh!

I tried this app on my Epic (original ver) and it did the exact same thing. I just restored from nand and all was good.

I was surprised that the app did report that CIQ was running, even using severals ROMs where it was said to be removed

This Epic post as brought to you via Tapatalk
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AsinX:
Just use the tar. Beggers cant be choosers
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CrispyCritter:
..

Yup. I went through this song n dance this morning. Saw the CIQ Logging tester by treve.. paid the $1 for the license. Didn't bother me, as long as it was going to work. Ran it. Told me to reboot. Sure enough, soft bricked my phone. Before I figured out how to fix it, I about crapped myself -- as I had just bought my epic 4g touch only 2 days ago! Thanks to the clever folks here at xda, I was able to get my phone back into working order.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] graffixnyc:
From what I know there will still be two files on your phone related to ciq but if you remove those files it will cause the phone not to boot. But its actually not running. If you run ciq detect app from supercurio it will also show those two files and appear that ciq is installed but it will also show in the logs that the service couldn't be started. Maybe other phones these two lib files can be safely removed but on our phones they can't. But carrier IQ is not running.

Got the same deal from same seller but in white not bad at all for the price
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] aengus4h:
got one which looks the same in blue,http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B006BX8BCO but is very pale/light in colour unlike the picture, would have been better in a darker shade.

I find it makes the volume buttons ultra sensitive though, like they are part-way depressed so a slight touch sends the ringer volume up/down very fast. It'll do for now till another one (http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0067LKSJ4) similar to the one I had on my SGS2 arrives.

Dave
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] pjm77:
Got the same case. It's ok for now but there is that problem with buttons (volume too sensitive, power button difficult to use) and I find it too bulky. I think I'll try something like skinomi carbon fibre to cut down on bulk and be able to use brodit car holder.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] aengus4h:
the second of the cases arrived, much better, no issues with the volume/power buttons, even has a moulding for a landyard to be fitted. Even came with a screen protector, but is cut away around the home button and the speaker/sensors at the top, rather than a neat custom cut. First case (pale blue) didn't come with a protector, but that's ok, I ordered a couple of Vikuiti CV8 ones as I've used their products before.

Not sure what it is about the GN cases but both of the ones I've received are very pale colours. First "Blue" was more like sky or baby blue, and this one (S-type case) is a very light purple, unlike the photo's on the sales pages. Still, this is workable and looks ok, better grip mouldings on the long edges too so feels nice and positive when held. Might see if I can get one in a dark blue at a later date.

I'm in Malaysia, and I just got my G Note 10 days ago. Absolutely love it to death!

Unfortunately, we don't have any cases here yet. Luckily for me, the standard flip-book cover came FREE from Samsung for the first 1000 buyers.

This, unfortunately, is one area where android devices cannot compete with Apple and that is the huge support from 3rd party accessories developers. It's sad cause the devices offer the best in customability but lack support for accessories...oh well, I guess we can't have it all then, can we?
