[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiny4579:
This is a good resource for governors. It is quite technical though. It doesn't include smartass though smartass is similar to smartassv2.

CPU Governors

Let me know if you still have questions after reading it.

The answer to your second question is no. The build of the governors are about 95% the same between kernels and with the exception of the smartass governors all those listed are stock android kernels.

Interactive should be smoother than conservative or ondemand but similar in performance to the smartass governors.

SmartassV2 is found to give the best performance/battery life combo across the board.

Edit: Good writeup cmlusco. In practice yes, smartassv2 is better all around I think. Interactive from Nexus S/Galaxy Nexus kernel source should be good but I've yet to be able to backport it to work on this phone property. It turns into a performance governor really.

And a side note. If the phone is actually in deep sleep state (reported by CPU Spy) the governor will not really matter then. Only time screen off matters is when it's awake but screen is off. Governor is most critical when screen is on really, so if you go for performance, screen on performance is what matters.

Edit 2: And I read some interesting viewpoints recently on maximizing battery that are different than the minimize CPU speed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ChrisAG:
With my Galaxy S, I never experienced any "junk" notifications. With the Galaxy Nexus, I get about three per week. I've owned the phone less than a month. Is it a coincidence?

The notification bar has indicated the following:

- a green plus sign. When the notification bar is pulled down I see an image for "Win an iPod 2!" (does the plus sign mean they are hacking my Google+ account? I there is no notification when I go to Google+ on the PC)

- a star. The notification says "Battery Notice - touch here to increase battery life 200%"

Both scams obviously but I certainly don't want junk notifications on my phone. Any ideas how to stop them?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
Find out where the spam is at and deal with it.

I would guess its Google Plus or Gmail.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] flatlander:
Yes, it is a coincidence. Some app on your phone is using AirPush or a similar ad network to show these crappy notifications. Try downloading AirPush Detector from the Market to see which one it is.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] El Daddy:
Do you have an mp3 downloader app? Someone had the same issue a few weeks ago and that was the offender.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ChrisAG:
I'll look at AirPush Detector, thanks.

No MP3 downloader app.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonathan3579:
Wow... Another thread from some poor misinformed soul. It is YOUR fault you have the problem because of an app YOU downloaded. I'm losing sympathy for all you whiners. It's getting old. :mad: I think every other thread on this forum is someone complaining.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kangxi:
Lol. You really think the phone is set to spam you? Yes, it's an app.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ChrisAG:
Despite being on this board every day since getting my Nexus (and reading the FAQ) I hadn't heard of AirPush. And again, this wasn't a problem for me three weeks ago with the Galaxy S so I thought it might be malware targeting ICS.

The guys a couple of posts above you were most helpful and I acknowledged that.

Gee, sorry my search didn't meet your standards. Was there ever a time when you weren't all-knowing?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ChrisAG:
Ah... no. I didn't think it was the phone. I thought it might have been some hacker targeting ICS.

I'm pretty selective with downloading apps, I have about half a dozen, only ones with high ratings. Mostly the same ones I had on the Galaxy S. Just shows diligence can't be overstated.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mortenmhp:
Keep in mind that when any app can access the notification tray(on all versions of android), any app can use it for advertisement as well. It is no "hack" they simply create a notification or service that exposes this to you.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonathan3579:
Okay, maybe I was a little harsh but it gets very tiring seeing, "Oh my previous phone didn't have x-problem." If people's previous phones never had the problems then maybe they should go back, ya know? So, I'm sorry if what I said was a little more...aggressive but you mentioning how you never had the problem before just set off how I have been feeling.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Valynor:
Quick tip for new Android users: Only install apps directly from the Google Android Market and don't install anything with less than 100.000 installations.

You will avoid most of the malware/bad apps this way (and a couple of good ones too - but you can come back for those later when you have more experience with Android).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jhuynh:
Why would any hacker target ICS? The install base is so low that it makes no sense.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Bingo lol. They should be targeting 2.3 if anything.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nxt:
It's a rogue app. Uninstall it. Done.

Quit complaining.

Close the thread.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d37.xunit:
Ok ok maybe there are similar threats but ive been searching for hours..

I almost give up.

Ok so i was running miui and all was good.

Saw 4.0 and wanted to install that.

I downloaded the files.. did not VolUp + home + power but just restarted my phone in download mode and Odin on.. added the files and pressed START.

Looked like it was stuck.. i did had a status bar but it didnt move at all after 30 min.

SO what did i do.. unplug, reboot phone and ofcourse i got the Phone --- ! --- pc error / message.

No recovery possible.. but my phone is seen in the Odin programme.

Tried old kernels but nothing works.. keeps failing.

After some time i tried the same KP8 ( android 4.0 ) and it started rolling.. the status bar was filling up so i was happy.

Now.. its been stuck @ Factoryfs.img for atleast 45 min..

It was my last hope on fixing my phone..

WHAT can i do.. i have an Original SGS2 with the provider KPN ( Netherlands ).

Seriously i have no clue what to do now.. unplug it.. retry ?... please help.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pulser_g2:
If it keeps failing on the same file, you need to do a full flash using KI3 ROM, and repartition with the pit.

This procedure isn't guaranteed to work, and could end up causing more problems or a permanent brick.

But right now, try to flash like just now a few times, and see how it goes?

If it sticks each time on the same file, then you will need to try a full flash with repartition.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d37.xunit:
Ok so i can just unplug.. and try to reflash it with the same files.

If it's stuck again..

I need to download KI3 Rom and add PIT this time?

Just making sure since English is not my mom language and i wanna make sure i'll do it correctly..
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d37.xunit:
im now trying my last try... its 1:44 am here..

PIT added

pda / phone / csc

its on +/- 15 % flashing..

going to bed.. sure hope its fixed when i wake up :(
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d37.xunit:
What is the best 4.0 Rom i can use ? there are allot of different ones..

Do i need to install an old or original rom first before installing 4.0 now ? i mean i dont have any OS on it atm.. only the Phone ---!--- pc error.. but can go in Odin / download mode
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d37.xunit:
You can close this one !

I tried 1 last time just with odin adding the 4.0 files and when i left my house to take pictures.. i came back after 3 hours and i saw a new log in screen :D

it worked :D

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Goodwin_TJ:

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] WithoutGrips:

Because only in Roms >= 3.0 Email is a single sync-adapter?

But with Hyperdroid 5.6.0 Ive got the same problem. Turned off auto sync, just getting emails.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Encino_Bob:
So, the frequency setting is for "never"? does it retrieve mail when you go to the inbox or while the phone is off? because i beleive everytime you go to the inbox it checks for mail.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] WithoutGrips:
No, the frequency is "push".

My request: if i turn auto-sync off, mails will not be pushed.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] WithoutGrips:
Guys, whats the problem?

Email-adapter sync is off but emails just syncing? Awful.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] matoflash:
Just change the frequency to never and you're done.

It is virtually the same as turning of the autosync for the account.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] WithoutGrips:
I need "autosync off" for tasker.

If I am connected to a WLAN autosync should be "off" so I do not receive emails.

That is the reason

wrong thread.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] WangChung81:
OK, let's pretend for a second that I didn't see this thread before I already read through the Dev section.... :(

Right now trying to boot into recovery doesn't work, but I still have root access. Should I just flash back to factory and start over?

Oh, Samsung p6210: Rooted, factory ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] chrisrotolo:
what do you mean by booting into recovery doesnt work? have you comprimised your recovery parition? try just holding power and vol + ,let it try to boot twice, continue to hold, you should get in assuming you have a working recovery. If not download quick boot from market, free and works great.

What is your issue exactly? have you tried to use ROM Manager?

In the worst case you may have overwritten a parition with an incorrect one, in which case you would need a stock ROM with a .pit file.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] WangChung81:
When I boot into recovery from Clockwork it (of course) gives me an android icon with a yellow triangle/exclamation. When I try to manually go into recovery, it says something about "installing unknown software is bad for you" and I have the option of installing (which starts "downloading" but does nothing), or restarting the tablet. Since I can't get into manual recovery I can't install the CWM file from the Dev thread...

I'm thinking the only option I have now is to do a "restore to factory."
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] chrisrotolo:
that is download mode you are going into, maybe you have vol+ and vol - confused. vol + is the closest to the power button. If this is the button you held then it sounds like you may have overwritten your recovery mode with another download mode??

ANyways I would try flashing Garyd9's CWM recovery.zip in the development thread, and use quick boot or terminal and type reboot recovery. Let us know how you make out.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Grey9999:
Works perfectly on gp6210

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheLastMirana:
so i want to switch to aosp rom from my stock rom so i was wondering should i only restore data and apps?

is there a problem with restoring system?

also my texts and contacts and stuff they would also be restored right?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shark_On_Land:
Yes. Apps+data is ex: angry birds and your progress.

Say if you were to back up system data and restore it, like maps, carrier IQ, and others. There is no point because they might be outdated or they might have been taken out for a reason, and you just reinstalled them. Carrier IQ is the perfect example.

So a simple batch operation that is "back up all user apps+data" is all you need.

The only sys data that is worth it is "wifi access points" that's your recent wifi networks and passwords
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shark_On_Land:
Just reread it.

Yes just restore user apps + data.

Don't want you bloating up a ROM now.

No your texts won't be restored.

Your contacts will restore automatically, but only if they're synced with your Gmail.

So I would go on Gmail and see if all my contacts are there.

I don't know how strict people are about "searching" things before posting on the forums, but I rather get yelled at by some nerd:p on the internet, than to have my $350 device screwed over because I followed the wrong tutorial. Anyways here are my questions:

1) I bought this device from someone brand new, and it came out of the box configured to work with Windmobile, but I was able to get my FIDO SIM card to work by simply inputting it into the device. So does this mean that my device is already unlocked?

2) I still have the old 2.2 version on my phone, and I want the new version (2.3), but since I cannot update the OS from the device itself, I don't know what method I should follow from my computer, also I am afraid that I might lose my unlock (if it is) with the update.

Please link me to the proper tutorial, or give me some insight on my problem, Thank you.

Hello,

Could anybody provide tun.ko for this kernel or place where is it stored in rom?

I am using version[ GINGERBREAD (2.3.4/5/6) Kernel 2.6.32.50] 1,30Ghz

I looked for this file in /system/lib and not found it.

Adam
[Atrix 4G General] ghost_og:
I think that since it is compiled into his kernel there won't be a file available. You would either have to unpack the boot.img and extract the module from the zImage, or compile just the the module against the kernel source. You may want to ask over in his thread.
[Atrix 4G General] greenwitch:
I cannot, ecause of the post limit. I have this rom on my Atrix so I can see all files but the module is not there in typical place like /system/lib/modules and in other /system/lib folders...
