So after getting a lot of request for making a guide to kernels as well, I finally decided that it will be helpful who are confused on which kernel to choose

So here Goes

Now before any of you guys proceed You must realize that You need to Unlock your Boot Loader before you can use a custom kernel

So read this Tutorial First

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1254225

#1. LINUXDX: This Kernel was originally made for DX's Own GingerDX. It offers better Performance than the stock kernel, Overall it offers a great Performance boost to your phone. A lot better than the stock kernel

Pros: Better Fps in games, Improves Your Rom"s Performance, Faster Boot Compared to stock kernel

Cons: Wifi Tethering Does not Work, Is not fully compatible with other Roms, Not Updated as often as other kernels

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1267747

#2:AlifDroid: A decent kernel. Like all custom kernels boosts The overall performance Boost is good. Needs a lot more though

Pros: Decent Fps in games, Better Scrolling, Some Extra Free ram

Cons: Needs to be updated, Random Reboots, You can't OC As high as other Kernels,

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1411557

#3:Alfs: One of the best kernel for our x8. It offers great improvement over your stock kernel and is probably one of the most stable kernel Out there.

Pros: Excellent Fps Improve in Gaming, Smooth Scrolling, More free ram, Stable

Cons:Battery Drains quickly, You need to flash another file to enable Offline Charging and Sd card mount, Some people reported swap issues

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1340861

#4: NAA kernel: This kernel was originally created for Nobodyatalls Minicm7 Rom, Its one of the fastest and smoothest kernel out there, It offers huge improvement over the stock kernel, However it is not fully compatible with all Roms

Pros: Excellent Fps Improvement in Games, Smooth Scrolling, Extra free Ram,

Cons: Is not compatible with other Rom's, Drains battery faster than stock kernel

This should be in general and not in dev section.

i think so

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] maddler:
quick and dirty: is there a way to play a sound on boot?

I tried to place android_audio.mp3 file in /data/local but still no sound is being plaied.

Any clue?

Thx
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NathanielCaron:
Good question

It's a question I've been asking myself this very day.

Since there's no default sound, no way to know where to put the file or how to name it.

Any ideas?

It should be somewhere around system/media but no clue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hydera5:
Hmmm I know its possible... I would also like to know where to put such a file
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
It is not enabled in the source code, no.

BAMF Paradigm has boot sound, however.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dev/null/:
I've been wondering about the same thing for awhile now but could never find any information on it. I'm glad their working on a kernal to allow it. I started making a boot animation assuming sound was set.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
I remember the newer MIUI builds having a sound on boot. Cool the first couple times, annoying after that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
Its in the framework, not the kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] akellar:
I don't suppose you're going to share with us huh? :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
Not today, but we will, yes :)

We are working on getting the code public.

It isn't my work to be sharing, so...its not my place to just throw it out there.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hydera5:
I suppose we could flash the ROM and see where the sound file is located... That would be an option but i assume the sound file is packaged in the same .zip file as the animation itself...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Esteway.619:
The boot sound is a mp3 format under system/media but it won't work with other roms only on BAMF rom there's must be more to it

[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wandereranthony:
After installing UrukDroid, how can I access/call USB Serial to use it to communicate to an Arduino? (I haven't installed it yet, but was wondering about the possibilities after I did.)

Also, since the tablet has some usb host support, shouldn't the code for it be somewhere in the system? I could probably access that, but it would require root, leaving me back with UrukDroid anyway...

I'm used to playing around on my phone (Droid X2) and if I do anything wrong on there, I know that I can simply SBF. Is there something similar with the Archos101?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aff1690:
I have read many post on changing the boot audio along with the boot animation, but was unable to get it to work with my bionic so i did some foot work with my budy and we figured out how to change the boot audio on the droid Bionic.

1. Download and extract the bootanimation file.

2. Backup/Move your stock bootanimation file out of system/bin

3. Move the new bootanimation file to system/bin

4. Move selected audio (Must be mp3 format and named "android_audio") to system/media

Reboot phone and enjoy =)

[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] intheb0x:
Just picked up a acer iconia a100 for 169.

It's nice and I enjoy it so far but I can get a Touchpad for around the same price.

Are the Android ports stable for browsing, and simple things like Android Market, face book, and Google music?

I'm kinda upset of the lack of development for the a100 and see that the Touchpad has a large section /development.

Thanks :-)
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] intheb0x:
Oh and wifi lol
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] staymunch:
The ics rooms are still in alpha but development is moving quickly, getting more and more stable, I use mine with no problems for basic use ie: browsing watching YouTube videos, music etc.

So yea if u don't mind waiting a lil bit for a few bugs to be ironed out I'd say go for it!

Edit: wifi is fine after you put your router to a specific channel
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dallas.maverick:
There are no wifi issues in ICS ROMs.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrlanrat:
Erm, it depends on what network you are connecting too. I have all the same wifi issues with CM9 as I did with 7. (I don't have the ability to change my wifi access point's channel)
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] altimax98:
My touchpad running CM9 has been very stable. Some apps (main culprit phandroid) caused issues that required a cache wipe to stop the lagging. Games aren't 100% stable yet, some will just crash for no reason. Its stable as alpha can get. There are some downsides: no real USB OTG host support. Audio and video aren't as smooth as other devices without playing with settings, even at their best.

The one main awesome thing is that most original iPad cases work perfectly with it. So you do have a wide selection of available cases.

[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quarlow:
I don't have wifi issues with any of the ICS ROMs (CM9 A0.5, evervolv, or bricked kernel). I did have issues with CM7. I haven't done anything to the channel on my router, its set to auto. Its stable and complete enough for my daily use there isn't anything I used in webOS that I can't use in CM9.

The camera doesn't work, and Netflix doesn't work. But, they weren't items I was used to using. YouTube will play full screen non HD videos fine, and they look as good as they did in webOS.

The stock ICS browser is great, I use ICS Browser + from the market because you can select a user agent. The thumb controls make the browser really intuitive. The app switching is great in ICS.

The only thing that I am really waiting for is quality Tablet optimized apps. There are some, but not many. With a great desktop experience browser its not a big issue, and you will have the same issue with any ICS tablet. I found CM7 Gingerbread not as usable as webOS. Because at least webOS was tablet optimized, and the cards were intuitive. ICS finally brings that class experience to this device.

The TouchPad has great dev support. Because of the fire sale the TouchPad has sold more units than ANY other tablet, except the iPad. So with all those units out there, there is a large user and dev base. I would guess the TouchPad will still have a large community at the next Android launch too.

[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spunker88:
The Touchpad has a large user base of developers. With the Touchpad you get a 10" screen (same as iPad) instead of only a 7" with the Acer. ICS is going to be great on the Touchpad, there is already alpha ROMs out.

Touchpad for the win
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamesissocool:
If you can get one....get one!

I think that all things considered, the HP Touchpad might go down as the most versatile device in modern history and might become a case study for future platform releases.

Here is my point: Find another device that was released with a decent proprietary OS that went open source (WebOS), had so many developers working on porting several versions of another open source OS (Android). Meanwhile, less popular but very functional linux ports (Arch and Ubuntu) are nearly complete or are already in use. And there are even more ports possible in the future including Windows. I don't think there will be another device in the immediate future that will be able to run so many different programs and could potentially be a multi-boot platform enabling the user to have a grab bag of OS resources to suit their individual needs.

For the price, why would you even consider another device right now?
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Richard Mongler:
The hardware in the Iconia isn't comparable to the TouchPad, specifically the 1.0Ghz Tegra 2 vs. the APQ8060, especially when the APQ8060 is overclockable to a stable 1.7Ghz.

You also have the wide range of software in WebOS, Linux ports, Gingerbread, Ice Cream Sandwich and the potential for a Windows 8 port in the future, a larger screen, larger built-in memory, a more active development community, better sound quality, fits in all iPad cases...

The Iconia has very little appeal IMO.

[Xperia Play Android Development] romcio47:
No more Xperia ARC libs! New libs pulled from .368 PLAY fw are below! Please download and update!

This is only for GB! I cannot guarantee you it properly working on ICS. I don't have this phone anymore.

Hello everyone. I haven't found any thread in Xperia PLAY forum where we could find lightweight package with -36 baseband with correct libs but until now!!

This file is for everyone who just don't want to download the whole .368 firmware (f.e. me - I have limited mobile internet because I'm too far from the city center, so no broadband connection for me...).

As being told (and recommended by DooMLoRD) - baseband -36 is currently the best and gives the best combination in battery life and signal reception.

My file weights only 11,8 MB so there is HUGE difference between 174 MB .rar file with .368 FW provided in thomassafca's thread...

Inside you can find modded flashable .ftf file (checked on my PLAY and working fine) and CWM flashable libs for -36 baseband.

download:

.ftf file + new libs (taken from PLAY .368 fw)

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/27760326/Baseband -36 with libs for Xperia PLAY.rar

slightly modded .zip file with PLAY libs without .ftf file (updated! please reflash them!):

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/27760326/BaseBand36LibsPLAY.zip

NON-FLASHABLE .rar file with libs, for pushing using adb or root explorer:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/27760326/Baseband -36 libraries for pushing.rar

Instructions:

1. Download the file.

2. Unpack it.

3. Using the newest verion of Flashtool open the .ftf file, make sure "Wipe Cache" is checked and click OK.

4. Turn off your phone and plug it in flash mode (press back button and plug it - LED should be green).

5. Wait a while as the baseband is being flashed.

6. When flashing is completed turn on the phone and enter recovery.

7. Flash BaseBand36LibsPLAY.zip

7.1. Optional - if you don't want to flash .zip file, use .rar file and push libs to /system/lib.

8. Reboot and ENJOY!

DO NOT UNDERVOLT YOU CPU! I THINK IN MY CASE IT SOMETIMES CAUSED SUDDEN LOSSES OF SIGNAL AND HEAVY BATTERY DRAIN! AND IT MAY BE THE SAME IN YOUR CASE SO DON'T DO IT!

thanks to:

thomassafca - for providing .ftf file (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1221105&highlight=root)

iridaki - for original post with -36 libs (do not use libs provided in this post, they WILL work but I'm not sure about full compatibility) (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1382657)

Click them a "Thanks!" button, please!

Thank you very much.....:)
[Xperia Play Android Development] NeWCuLTKiNG:
Aren't those libs from an arc? I think we should see if we can get each baseband with play libs. I have many of the libs but they aren't packaged nicely like the others.
[Xperia Play Android Development] romcio47:
Yes, those libs are from arc, but working on play. But only libs are working, baseband provided on arc thread obviously doesn't work so that's why I made that thread.

Does this work on Verizon CDMA xperia plays's?
[Xperia Play Android Development] romcio47:
AFAIK CDMA Plays have different basebands (at all) than GSM ones, so no. It does not work.
[Xperia Play Android Development] DooMLoRD:
there are just a few basebands available for R800x so i dont think there is much point in R800x users checking this... also CDMA basebands must surely be different than GSM ones :)
[Xperia Play Android Development] NeWCuLTKiNG:
Do you think you could package other baseband libs like the 36? Where I live bb36 is terrible. I'm stuck with 56 and 58 baseband.

I have the -36 baseband from 368 installed with the arc libs. Do i have to flash the tft again or can i just flash the libs?
[Xperia Play Android Development] juzza87:
I am running stock .42 SE ROM with stock kernel, will doing this (since it's from an older ROM) still work with my handset and what are the differences, I understand it provides better battery life and reception?
[Xperia Play Android Development] romcio47:
No, just flash the libs.

Yes, this baseband will work with your ROM.

Some people (and me) say that baseband -36 provides the best connection with the carrier, no sudden signal losses, generally in every way is much better than baseband from -64.

I had some problems with -64 baseband such as sudden signal losses - my signal indicator in status bar sometimes was rapidly changing from 1 to 4 and suddenly showed "No signal. Only emergency calls"

With these -36 libs signal losses are gone, even the battery seems to last longer!
[Xperia Play Android Development] NeWCuLTKiNG:
Ok maybe a dumb question but ill ask anyway. Is the baseband for the 800a the same as the baseband for 800i 368 firmware? :o
[Xperia Play Android Development] 216Monster:
Could someone on the .368 firmware please post the " libtalk_jni.so file " ? I cant flash the firmware because Im r800x but I still need the lib file from it, anyones help would be a big help , sorry for slighty unrelated post

I bought a Galaxy Tab 7 (T-Mobile) last night and I love this thing LOL anyways. I'm no noob to Android but honestly more of a WP7 guy and so sometimes I tend to get lost in translation :o Okay here's the problem, I want to flash the latest HyperDroid rom on my tab but got stuck. These are the steps I followed:

> Got the ROM on my PC

> Rooted the Tab using Z4Root

> Backed up my /EFS folder

> Got ROM Manager(CWM)

> "Flashed" the CWM Recovery (2.5.18)

> Rebooted into recovery in order to create a Nandroid backup.

> Get this error "e:failed to verify whole-file signature"

And so in my recovery menu there isn't an option to actually back anything... What am I doing wrong? I'd appreciate some help guys! :)

I noticed one difference between the units in the EC version.

Working Unit

Pad EC version TF201-PAD-0215

Non Working Unit

Pad EC version TF201-PAD-0214

If you are experiencing the problem, check your PAD EC Version in About. I'm curious to know if everyone has a 0214. If all the problems are with TF201-PAD-0214 then at least Asus will be able to validate and fix it now and in the future.

Before you get all pissy about having an older version, it's most likely just a build based on different manufacture parts, not that one version would be better than the other....will except currently with ICS.....until that's resolved ;)

It's interesting you found they have two different model #s I have a 0214 and does not have the lockup issue so I guess it doesn't matter which model you have.
