Oh I know, I just think it's funny that he ask for a favor and then calls me a jerk and insults me just like the last time he demanded the kernel. He could of just pm'd me, but his whole approach is just off the wall. The whole reason I even put pershoot v10 kernel on rom manager was so that he and other people that wanted it could access it any time they wanted. That in itself is a "favor". People are going to go straight to the ignore list from now on with things like this.

There also seems to be no moderation in these forums whatsoever which may change here very soon...
[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
Do yourself a favor and just stop personally attacking me all the time...I've turned devs and users away from here? The only person I'm been getting sick lately is you, and I think the rest of us were doing just fine until you showed up and started trolling and yes "demanding" things. I preach the rules of xda, and add people like you to the ignore list which is what I'm going to do right now.
[EVO Shift 4G General] VICODAN:
fact: pershoot 14 is the best performing kernel on speedy with bfq io scheduler.
[EVO Shift 4G General] drob311:
What is this? The I wanna start an arguement thread? Vicodan, you and I, along with all the other shift people, know that each device "has a mind of it's own" when it comes to kernels. You shouldn't post your opinion as a fact.
[EVO Shift 4G General] VICODAN:
I've tested over 3 phones.
[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
I'll update the RM on this kernel.

Seems like this kernel is long overdue for another update.

[EVO Shift 4G General] VICODAN:
Please look into GPS, Wifi, Wimax, battery, and SD card read/write speeds. If you could get 3d,2d and FPU to perform better that'd be icing.

Also please check on BFQ vs simple IO vs deadline. I'm talking about performance of speed vs battery life. Between the 3 io schedulers. I know pershoot 14 uses simpleio out of the box.
[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
I didn't know any of these things were a issue or not working...they all work fine for me lol. Sdcard speed doesn't rely on the kernel but the rom. I have a sdcard speed mod in all my kanged roms. Or you can download this app and set the speed to whatever you want and go into settings and select apply on every boot. It basicly does the same thing as what my kanged roms do but let's you change the speed:

Edit: also the new cm kernel on github has some bugs in it, so I'm not sure if it's for ICS or not. I'll see if I can get the bugs worked out of it.

[EVO Shift 4G General] VICODAN:
There is no problem with them but everything can be improved, out of the box, is what I'm saying. GPS in general could be better, there's a fix RonOVerdrive posted a while back that I will try to find, Wimax could be better, I'm also finding that Wimax can be faster with faster clock speeds, sdcard I've played around with and I think it might be a variable thing, I was getting different speeds on the same kernel over and over again but toastcfh's cm7 kernel I got the best speeds (which is weird).

Battery: I'd like to find the best battery/performance settings possible. Meaning I don't want to charge my phone for 48 hours and get good performance, if that's even possible.

The source has always been there. Just click on my home page on rom manager to get to my github. I haven't really had time to work on the kernel yet, been working on other devices where people appriciate what I do more. It's funny on the shift forums the trolls even followed me to rom manager.

[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] BackDaws:
anyone else experiencing slow tracking and movment when using google maps or latitude?

my GF's Wildfire S is perfect while my Galaxy S plus is slow to get GPS if it gets it at all and incredibly slow while using maps or latitude, its like when you used to play a game on a pc and the HDD would start thrashing lagging your game like crazy.

its as if something is trying to access cpu in the background, im getting sick of this phone it was supposed to be a bit of an upgrade to my Wildfire S but all i see is the Wildfire S kick its arse even with that 600Mhz cpu compared to my 1.4Ghz cpu.

can you check please how it runs by clicking the compass icon top right while looking at the map and setting it to follow you so the map moves around you when you turn.

Thanks :)
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] sunbaj:
Hi BackDaws,

This is a common problem it seems across the SGS+ phones as I have also been facing the same problem. This is what I have found and you may check it at your end aswell.

1. Enter the start and the end direction and the route comes up.

2. Now tap the Blue icon which states your current position and it will now come to the centre of your screen.

3. Then press the cmpass icon on the top right. Now your screen will refresh as you move but now the problem that you will face is that the whole route has been compressed in one screen and you will not be able to make out if there are frequent turn in your rout.

4. Now go the Zoom out tab that is there at the right bottom corner and Zoom it to a level where you can see the route clearly with the turns.

See if this helps... It has helped me but there are times when the refresh rate is slow because of the data transfer rate.

Also do let me know if you find any other way out

Thanks

[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] MinionOfEckerd:
I successfully added Car Home to my KF to so I can use it as a head unit in my car. I have a couple questions about the shortcut buttons that are preloaded and adding my own shortcuts.

When I hit "Maps" it brings up Google Navigation

When I click "Navigate" it displays the error "Activity not found."

When I click "Add shortcut" I receive the same error "Activity not found."

Does anybody know if it is possible for me to fix these errors?

I'm pretty comfortable with sideloading files, changing permissions, and entering commands into terminal emulators so I'm sure whatever solution I can do it. Thanks!:D
[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] jolars:
Your Kindle has no GPS, so using it as a navigation aid will be a bit problematic.

No idea about fixing the specific errors, but I am guessing the GPS thing is the biggest problem in for this operation.
[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] MinionOfEckerd:
I've already set up my KF so that I am tethered to my phone through GPS and for data. (I guess I should have said that in my original post!) :D

I side-loaded Google Maps 6.0 and the navigate button works fine with my GPS tethered Fire. I didn't add Car Home, though.

Yes I did. It says it's running in my notifications bar, but all I see is my homescreen. Weird, I know.

[HTC Wildfire S] laurence997:
Hi All,

First post here. :) Got a HTC Wildfire S last week on Vodafone Ireland (I think its the A510e version, if that makes any difference, maybe someone could point out the difference). I want to debrand it if possible, and upgrade to 2.3.5 in the process. I'm just wondering is this safe to do on my phone, and which stock rom to use. As far as I can see its branded Vodafone UK though.

It is sim locked to vodafone, but I can get it unlocked for free from Vodafone, if I should do that before debranding.

Baseband Version: 47.10.35.3029h_7.46.35.08

Build No: 1.33.161.2 CL44680 release-keys

And which of these should I use, if either are suitable:

RUU_Marvel_HTC_Europe_1.30.401.0_Radio_47.10.35.30 29H_7.46.35.08_release_183799_signed.exe

RUU_Marvel_HTC_Europe_1.33.401.2_Radio_47.10.35.30 29H_7.46.35.08_release_185724_signed

My understanding is that the second one is the stock European ROM, Would my guess be right, and I presume it has english, yes? I want to use it on the Vodafone IE network, but the battery bug and the branded software on the phone are getting on my nerves.

I apologise for not posting in the development forum, if that is where I should post this, but I cant do so before posting 10 posts. I have read the debranding guide, I just dont want to brick my phone or something. I also have used the search function as best I can, I've been reading about it for hours, but there's just so much material on here I'm getting swamped, but that's a great thing, keep up the good work :)

Thanks,

Laurence
[HTC Wildfire S] intel007:
It's safe mate if you run an official ruu and make sure you have enough battery.

I would use the new Europe 2.13... Posted in development section in the sticky shipped roms. It has better performance and battery. Also updates gingerbread to 2.3.5.

The 2 roms you mention would not update you to 2.3.5 you would remain on 2.3.3 also you can only update to a higher Rom version, unless you are s-off or create a gold card.
[HTC Wildfire S] laurence997:
Thanks for the reply, completely missed that Rom in the sticky, glad I asked before I tried it :)

Are you saying that I can upgrade to 2.13 without a goldcard? I presumed I needed one anyway. And do I set the phone to sync or what setting to run the Ruu?

Thanks for the help, really appreciate it :)

EDIT: Or will I need the gold card anyway to do the debranding?
[HTC Wildfire S] intel007:
Make sure phone is set to usb debugging mode in application, development settings.

Make sure you have HTC sync installed on your pc.

Plug up your phone then select HTC sync mode.

Now wait for a minute to see if HTC sync opens on your pc, if it does close it but not by closing the window but going to taskbar icon and right click then exit. If it doesn't open still check taskbar to see if It's running, if yes close same way.

NOTE: If HTC sync is running when trying to upgrade you will get errors.

Now run the ruu and follow instructions.

Don't think you need a gold card if you are installing a higher HTC software version than what's currently installed. But I could be wrong.

Good luck mate.
[HTC Wildfire S] miguelca:
Goldcard will be absolutely necessary because phone is branded - Vodafone Ireland.

Any branded phone requires goldcard for updating to the European 2.3.5 RUU. ;)
[HTC Wildfire S] intel007:
Thanks will remember that next time mate.

Wasn't sure as i was s-off with xtc.. so didn't have to go through it.
[HTC Wildfire S] miguelca:
You're welcome mate! :) When flashing the European RUU's on branded phones we get error 131 (Customer ID or something similar).

I wish I had someone with a XTC-Clip near me but unfortunately that isn't easy where I live. :(

Will have to wait for the geniuses here to S-OFF by software.

My best thoughts are with them. :D
[HTC Wildfire S] laurence997:
Thanks for the replies, I downloaded the ruu earlier but I had no usb cable where I was, now I'm at home and the file won't download, so I've plenty time to make a goldcard before getting the ruu file Monday. I had a suspicion that I'd have to make one alright. I'll give it a go as soon as I can and hope for the best. Hope I don't brick my phone anyway, wouldn't want that.
[HTC Wildfire S] miguelca:
You're welcome on my part.

If you do things right and have your phone ready with enough battery, everything will be fine. :)

Have you tried this link:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/47984246/Gingerbread 2.3.5 (v2.13.401.2).zip

Maybe you can download from there. If you do just unzip the file and run ARUwizard.exe with the phone connected in charge mode only and USB debugging enabled. HTC Sync should be closed.

Good luck! :D
[HTC Wildfire S] laurence997:
Okay thanks for the link :) I think I managed to download the file last night from file manager after clicking on the link a hundred times :D I also got a goldcard image aswell. The format tool of the SimpleGoldCard utility wouldnt work properly, but I just formatted it fat32 and I'll hope it works.

I'll run the file in a few hours and see what happens, i gotta leave soon and don't know how long the process takes. Fingers crossed :D

And I really appreciate all the help, thanks guys :)

[HTC Wildfire S] laurence997:
IT WORKED :D :D :D

I am soooo happy right now, no more annoying vodafone programs and (hopefully) no more dialer using copius amounts of battery all the time :rolleyes: :D

Thanks for all the help, never could have done it without ye :)

Now, time to restore all my apps to it :cool:

Laurence
[HTC Wildfire S] miguelca:
Great news Laurence! ;)

When I debranded my phone I felt great too. :)

No more crap software, Vodafone startup/shutdown logos were gone and the most important is the memory that we recovered with this process. :cool:

It seems that the dialer process still uses most of the battery but I guess this is just a cosmetic bug that isn't fixed (yet). :(

I'll try to explain what happens with me: now I have dialer with 96%, Phone idle with 2% and Cell Standby with 2%.

However if I dial *#*#4636#*#* and go to "Usage statistics" and sort by "Usage Time" the dialer has only 96884ms of usage, against 354250ms of Messages for example. The messaging (sms) application on my phone obviously used more battery than the dialer, without any doubt.

So if you want "reliable" information on what's "eating" your battery you should use the *#*#INFO#*#* (*#*#4636#*#*) instead. ;)

Miguel
[HTC Wildfire S] laurence997:
Completely happy with the debranding, after using it for a while I can't see any problems with it atall :) I charged the phone last night and battery run time was 10 hours at the end of the day. I browsed the internet on wifi, downloaded a few files, read the mail and general stuff, made a call or 2, sent about 25 messages and the battery was at 92pc at the end of the day(I am using that GSM only battery saver tip), I'm completely astounded :eek: :D :cool:

I'd estimate that's at least a 25percent improvement over my phone before it was debranded. The vodafone apps must have been sucking a fair amount of juice, as well as the improvement in battery the new android has given me. I'll have to use it for a bit longer to verify thats not a once off occurance, but I've never gotten so much time out of the battery on the phone :)

[Samsung Infuse 4G] jefffeely:
In my experience using a different USB cable than what Samsung supplies or having a flaky USB port can cause hit or miss Odin flashes.

I don't think it is possible to brick this phone from flashing. I've done pretty much everything you can possibly do wrong and both of mine still work fine and dandy.

It is possible to be in Download mode and never have anything even come up on the screen. If you are uncertain, listen for the sound your computer makes when you plug in a USB device or watch your device manager. Even if you don't have the driver installed something will most likely show up.
