If you get FC:s after first boot just remove battery. Put battery back and power on. No more FC:s, at least my arc s work normal after that...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ShyamSasi:
Hi all,

I have fixed the crashing issue seems like one of the kernel tweak was causing it. I'm uploading new version now. After removing the tweak I find it's much smooth. I have also included the status widgets as well thanks to Diamond666 for this thread but modified the battery %.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ShyamSasi:
I have also included the new Google Play Store. :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ShyamSasi:

[Xperia Arc Android Development] ShyamSasi:
Nope not better than GB compared to stock ICS it's better.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ChaosFirZen:
Did U Remove The BloatWare Already On Your ICS ROM?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ShyamSasi:

[Xperia Arc Android Development] paulinodf:
That oooold question: How is battery life?

And... Works fine on Arc S?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ShyamSasi:
Battery is lot better. For me normal usage 9 hours still got 87% which is OK for me. It does works fine with Arc S.

[Xperia Arc Android Development] ShyamSasi:
That's good. :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] dp94:
After some using of CM9, I kind of miss Sony style, so I'll give this a try.

Just a few questions:

I guess RC2 is the same as v1?

Has anyone tried the new DooMKernel (v04) with this ROM?

BTW: @ShyamSasi: Your link in OP to DooMKernel goes to the stock ICS beta kernel. ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] landis90:
I tried this rom on DoomKernel v4 and works very buggy. No smooth and often the application stop to respond, specially the browser. I tried to reinstall the rom, the kernel, wipe everything but with no solution, the only thing that improves the situation (but doesn't solve) is to reduce the windows animation to 0.5
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ShyamSasi:
I recommend Doom's Advance Stock Kernel. It works well. because the other Kernel is still using zkernel from ICS Alpha. As if now the only issue I find with my ROM is performance issues when I enable data. Not sure why still investigating.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] landis90:
Doomkernel v4 is based on the new ics BETA kernel source.

I'm relly interested on your rom but i have to use doomkernel for the two way call recording feature, this is the reason that hold me on doomkernel.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ShyamSasi:
I'll test with new DoomKernel and see.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] slimmer2:
Your ROM are very good.

Have fun with your HTC One X
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ShyamSasi:
Thanks! .....
[Xperia Arc Android Development] pulz:
Hello.

Please update the 1st post, which quotes DoomKernel as being based on ICS alpha sources. Doom has updated the kernel, so the new one has beta sources.

Can you provide any info on whether this new one is better/stable ?!

Thanks
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Ricky D:
Does 'stable' mean 100% no random restarts, 100% app compatibility where expected and fully functioning everything?

Are there ANY known bugs?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ShyamSasi:
Sorry mate .. Just sold the device can't do any testing. But you can still try out.

Compared to my previous releases it's stable, One bug which I encountered is low performance with data is turned on. Unfortunately since I stopped development I can't fix it or find the cause. It's up to you. if you want to can test it.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] amulbaby:
Custom kernel

Hey guys,

Very interested to try this one...but can some1 tell me which kernel would be best suited with XPERIA MOD for better battery life?? :)

Thank you
[Xperia Arc Android Development] slimmer2:
ich used this rom with Advanced Stock Kernel, but the develloment is stop for this rom
[Xperia Arc Android Development] amulbaby:
Yeah even with Advanced Stock kernel...there are loads of glitches when data is turned on... :(

Why is this the only ROM that games work 100% on... :-/.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] rajesh_galaxyace:
In Omega Rom v2 is dta2sd scripts supported ?? SHAAN .. and also if link2sd is the only thing available is it possible to move dalvik and all to sd ext with that .. i mean to say can i have any number of apps without filling up my internal memory ... and how is the gaming on ur rom ??? any force closes ?? ( not hd games - normal ones )

I read the reviews on ur rom.. REALLY AN AWESOME ROM .. im flashing it tomo .. Please guide me .. And can u please explain what Hardware Acceleration Script DOes ??
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Shaaan:
First things first.

DO NOT USE A2SD SCRIPT ON THIS ROM.

You can use any other scripts though. Most of the games run normally. But if you want to try some resource hungry games, be sure to OC.

The hardware acceleration mod is there to improve your overall UI.

It might or might not help you in gaming depending upon the apps running in the background.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] rajesh_galaxyace:
Thanks a lot for the reply ... is the gaming better than the stock rom DDKQ6 atleast ???? I mean games like cut the rope , angry birds etc ..

and does ur rom have swype , news widget and all those in stock ??
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] ace-user:
gaming is awesome in this rom..dun worry...
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] rajesh_galaxyace:
And Shaan about the memory ... is this thread true ??

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1476121&page=4

accrding to it .. with link2sd i can have any number of apps installed depending on the ext partition size .. so its almost the same as dta2sd .. is this included in ur rom ?? can i link everything and have many apps on ext partition ?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Shaaan:
Yes. I have given link2sd support by default.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dandart:
An official beta build of ICS SGS2 wiped my /efs.

I restored back to XXKI3 but it hadn't restored.

I don't have a nv_data.bak, nv_data.md5.bak or efs.tar anywhere backed up using my previous roms.

I know my original IMEI and it's not able to tell the real IMEI - just the default 004999010640000 (nv.log shows "restored default NV").

What are the steps to regenerate this?

I am skilled at the command line and have a root terminal.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
2 possible options (and there may be others):-

1) GSII_Repair from Market.

2) If all else fails, you might want to contact Odia on here who apparently helps people recover their IMEI for a case of beer or thereabouts :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dandart:
> 1) GSII_Repair from Market.

Given:

> I don't have a nv_data.bak, nv_data.md5.bak

or .nv_data anywhere - this is out of the question.

As for the version - it was a "leaked" 4.0.1 I think - I'll get back to you with the version
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
OK. If you think this method won't work for you, then there's no way any of the other 'simple' (they're not really) methods would work. You'd better get in touch with Odia by posting in one of his threads or PMing him.

Last chance before you send it back to Samsung.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dandart:
Thanks

If I don't have to do simple I won't do simple...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Dont forget with ICS you have no warranty nor with root or custom rom counter above zero .

ICS is not official you have a leaked beta copy not released by Samsung .

Hey guys,

I have just installed OmegaRom by Team Cooper and what a Rom it is!!! Amazing is an understatement.

Okay so with there new Rom v2, it has an OC kernal built in and it does work...BUT I need to know how to OC the thing safely and squeezing as much performance as possible!

I have it at 825 and min 806 mhz, scaler is performance.

What settings would you pro's recommened?

Thanks!

Edit 1- I am using SetCPU to OC.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] mdfzhi:
"overclock" and "safe" cannot be use in the same sentence, it just wrong.

theres no safe overclocking. moreover each and every device is unique even for the same model.

what is working with others doesnt guarantee it'll works with yours.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] davalav:
What I meant was a stable OC that may work with my phone... I OC computers too so I know the risk's involved. So what I was asking was what OC's worked with peoples phones so I could get a rough idea on how to govern my cpu and OC it without totally messing it up.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] sreesh87:
i hope u are aware of the ill effects of OCing.....battery takes a real beating....:(:(well i have done it upto 886 mhz....many others have done it upto 1ghz mark...but i personally do not recommend...
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Pistaaa:
CPU Tuner

I try CPU Tuner, is similar ti setCPU but is free;) whit THE END 3.0 custom ROM and use the 864-254 mhz for screen on and 480-122 for screen off whitout problems, previously I use 904 mhz, but sometime it freeze...

Bye Pistaaa
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Shaaan:
I have OCed it to 902 mhz..

;)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] davalav:
Thanks for the comments guys... Gives me a rough estimate on its limits.

So far I have been running 844mhz performance for a while, since I created this thread and the battery has remained at 82%! :)

I have benched using AnTuTu twice and have excellent read and write speeds, compared to other benchies I have seen, OmegaRom is the best Rom I have ever used!

Cheers,

i tried cpufrills and its the best for me :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] GunXT:
I don't Think U mustuse over clocking,even my setting was min245 max 902,the effect just draining more battery,and if using to much can damaging ur prosessor:D
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Rushyang:
I know you might think what I'm going to write is unnecessary and going to contradict with your believes here. but I'm going say it anyway.

If you are going to use your device for a long time then I would suggest not to overclock too much. You'll know when something will go wrong with your over-clocking. Your SGA would start rebooting randomly. Heating up would be excessively common once you start overclocking, using your SGA while it's charging. Over clocking will definitely reduce your processor life span. People who do can over clock their device to get the max out of their device and know they're going to change the device in sometime later anyway.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] davalav:
Don't worry! Like I said, I have experience O/C'ing processors etc and I know how bad the effects can be! I am not going for a massive overclock at all. Just a tiny bump in the speed. At the moment, I am running 825mhz and already the speed has improved dramatically. I may go a little further but 902mhz is a bit mental for my liking.

[Acer Iconia Tab A100] marklyn:
Acer A100 with ICS 4.03 questions...

I have a dock for my A100 and have two questions for which I cannot find the answer for.

1) when I dock the tablet the media screen comes up. How can I disable that so that when I dock I just see my home screen?

2) I have earpods connected to the headphone out on the dock and

all audio

goes through the earpods (understandably). But, I'd like my clock alarm to sound through the tablet speakers though.

When I plug the headphone jack into the tablet headphone jack (still docked mind you), then it works the way I want it to. All sound, except for alarm, goes through headphone. I'd prefer to have the headphone connection through the dock so because it is much more convenient.

In case you're wondering. I usually fall asleep listening to music/podcasts via earpods, and need to wake up to tablet alarm since the earpods usually get disconnected during the night.

Is there a setting, or a program I can install that will accomplish this? Odd that it works when I use the tablet jack but I really want the convenience of the dock jack.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gambler_3:
I heard alot about nexus S sound with voodoo but is stock really supposed to be rather average? While the sound "quality" seems really good the volume levels are just not good enough. My bose headphones sound so weak compared to an iphone, what gives?? :confused:

Even an HTC desire had higher volume. Is voodoo supposed to make it much louder? Why cant we have it without rooting?

Update: I just tried my headphones on an iphone and well it isnt as loud as I remember it was. Whats happened is that I got spoiled by the headphone amp in my PC soundcard and thus perceived the nexus sound to be really weak in comparison. I had not yet used my headphones on a phone since getting a soundcard.

Obviously I cant expect the nexus to beat my PC and it actually compares really well with the iphone 4. I am sorry guys I feel really stupid for making this topic.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zgomot:
Disappointed? Not in the very least. I'm actuall extremely pleased and actually very ****ing surprised of the quality... even without Voodoo enhancements.

I had a Desire before this and that had a very tinny and high-mid/high heavy focus. It was very unpleasant watching videos let alone listening to music.

When I first heard the Nexus s (stock gingerbread at that time) I was in awe. The sound was very clear and loud. It even appeared to produce unnaturally powerful and clear low frequencies for a speaker this size.

I think something is very wrong with your phone if you prefer the Desire's sound.

My 2¢.

Later edit: I just now realize you were actually complaining about the sound volume and not the quality, but still I can't say I find it quieter than the Desire.

However, you are right. Voodoo can boost the volume quite a bit.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gambler_3:
Oh no you completely misunderstood, the speaker on the nexus S is really good and destroys the desire. I am talking about sound through full size headphones.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d-h:
Perhaps you need a headphone amplifier.

With Voodoo, the sound quality is exceptional, but quality has nothing to do with volume. In fact, turning up the volume in the phone too far will have a negative impact on the sound quality (distortion).

There are a number of factors affecting the perceived volume of a pair of headphones. Driver efficiency and impedance are the main ones; some output devices are designed for headphones which require high voltage and others for current.

The Nexus S with Voodoo, in airplane mode, playing high quality FLAC media, plugged into an amplifier, sounds pretty darn good through my AKG K271 MKII cans. Also pretty stellar through Meyer PA.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zgomot:
Yes, I missunderstood, thus my later edit.

And I agree with d-h. I'm only using a pair of sennheiser cx300 but I can never turn it all the way up (I even set the limit at 3dB, rather than 5dB). I keep the volume around 1/2 to 3/4 of the way and that's plenty loud... even in noisy environments.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gambler_3:
You have voodoo? What music player you use?

And as for headphone amplifier I never used one for other phones I mentioned. While sound quality has nothing to do with volume but without headphone amp, volume tends to be the biggest bottleneck on a smartphone. Since nexus S is hailed as one of the greatest smartphones sound wise I expect it to drive my bose headphones atleast as good as other phones.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wmdunn:
This will take care of your sound/volume issues ...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zgomot:
I use Google Music.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gambler_3:
I have poweramp 2.0, it can make things really loud but there is slight distortion on anything above the default level. I know my headphones can get ridiculously loud without distorting so it's the hardware limitation on the phone.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wmdunn:
I use Volume+ on my head phones all the time, and there is no distortion. If you don't want to try it, that's fine ... I was simply trying to help.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gambler_3:

While we are on this topic, I have voodoo installed for the color hack. What settings should I use for music? What do you guys use?

Nevermind, I just found out how to use the volume boost. I'm happy!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harbb:
The Galaxy Nexus has some Yamaha chip. Not nearly as good as the Wolfson in our NS, so it's not something to be really proud of - it's not shocking though. SGS and Nexus S are the two android phones with the best headphone output to date.

All of the settings in voodoo (aside from mono and bass boost) are there to enhance audio quality and processing. Feel free to turn on all features, just leave mono unticked and you can set bass boost to your preferred level of course. This shouldn't use noticeably more power or CPU usage either, if anything at all.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rocket999:
Thanks! I don't see the option for the bass boos, but my earphones sound amazing!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wildestpixel:
Obtain root and purchase voodoo sound. You only ever need stock player then. Anything like volume plus or power amp is all software gimmickry that will ruin sound.

Voodoo is directly calling on registers in the wolfsom wm8994 giving real neat audiophile results.
