My engine flush script included with V6 SuperCharger... it haz...

Just type "flush" in terminal ;)

And what's up with the naming?

There is a well known Adrenaline Shot script plus there is a certain 3G TurboCharger but anyway instead of using 2 names (?) you should call it "Adrenaline Boost" or something
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ImbaWind:
whenever u feel lag ;)

really ?0.0

for my device this script echo 3 drop cache is indeed included in many script but none of them works :o

okay I'll make changes

but I really don't know tat ur v6 can clear ram by terminal..

and isit ur script only echo 3 without echo 1 back and sync

correct me if i'm wrong ;)

and from my opinion , it's better to echo 1 back to drop_caches, cause the caches which are still in use may be cleaned whenever u go task manager and clear ram

correct me if i'm wrong ;)

Plus you ain't sleeping between the echo 3 and echo 1 - so sometimes that won't work. ;)

[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] sammydude:
Hello all,

I have a sidekick 4g with stock ROM.

I want to flash a custom ROM, but at the same time don't want to lose the Sidekick UI. I love the UI since its unique.

1) Are there ROMs which retain the Sidekick UI?

(Gingerclone looks similar to the Sidekick UI)

2) If majority answer is YES to the above question,

Are there ROMs which go for the Android Vanilla look (away from SKG UI)?

3) What are the gingerbread ROMs available?

4) Is there an ICS port available?

5) What are the pros and cons of having a custom ROM?

6) Will there be random reboots after installing custom ROMs?

Please help! (Basic questions, I know :) )

sammydude
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] Jax184:
1) Several ROMs have the stock UI.

2) I've seen tons of custom themed ROMs, but I'm not sure about vanilla Android ones.

3) There are no Gingerbread ROMs available.

4) There are no Ice Cream Sandwich ROMs available.

5) The pros tend to be better stability and performance. Since we haven't been able to build a fully custom ROM from AOSP/CM/etc, we're limited to tweaking the stock ROM. In stock form our ROM is pretty buggy and loaded down with crap. Custom ROMs tidy it up.

6) Depends on the ROM.

I suggest MrKickstand's Back To The Basics. It retains the stock theme and speeds things up.

The current version has a few minor bugs, but you can fix them yourself. I noted a few of them and their solutions http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=22547395&postcount=80
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] sammydude:
Thank you so much, Jax! Now I'm game to try out Kickstand's TRON ROM! Tron theme is an added incentive!! :)
[HTC Sensation] mckellick:
I find screen protectors are useless really for the sensations. They bubble and the finger prints smear to much. Just FYI the screen on the sensation are made of gorilla glass and can resist scratching. I did a few demos with some friends where id take a coin or a key and rub on the glass and no scratching occured. I dont recommend anyone doing this though. Thats my opinion.
[HTC Sensation] Ndokami:
I agree with you. I have had mine since launch and have never once used a screen protector. I put my phone in my pocket with loose change and keys all the time still no scratches. But I think this is all pretty well known, people just want that extra insurance that their screens won't get scratched
[HTC Sensation] g1user101:

I'm currently using an XtremeGuard protector. it's been on since June. Still going strong.

Not running a screen protector is like barebacking a hooker. You might be fine

---------- Post added at 10:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:34 PM ----------

Nice update! Running it with DrowningChild's 8.9.2a kernel and reverted GPS. New look seems to mimic someaspects of Ice Cream Sandwich, like the blue icons instead of Gingerbread's green icons. Some holdovers (like buttons on slider ring to unlock etc) but on the whole, very nice :)

Won't know reliability until I've run it for a few days, but seems good at first glance.

Cheers!
[HTC Aria General] HTCscout:

u should use swype.

but not on my tab, that just takes way too long to drag all over the screen.
[HTC Aria General] tonyc0642:
Here is the changelog for those that actually care about what is new in this build. Maybe the OP will add it to the first post.

http://cm-nightlies.appspot.com/?device=liberty
[HTC Aria General] dh4645:
titanium backup .zip

i made the titanium backup .zip with the titanium backup pro version i have, but it wont install in cwm after flashing the new rom.

i even let the phone start up once then back into cwm, but still wont install.

do i need a newer cwm version?

yes, i know i can just create my google acct again and log into market to download it, but i shouldnt have to if i made the .zip.

help for next time??
[HTC Aria General] tonyc0642:
I've honestly never used the backup.zip feature on TiBu so I'm not sure if I can be much help. Why do you need to restore apps? Did you do a full wipe? I only wiped dalvik and cache and everything is working fine, and I wasn't even using a official nightly, I was using this kang from a couple weeks ago. I'd suggest just restoring your nandroid (provided you made one before flashing) and just install the new one over it and just wipe dalvik and cache.
[HTC Aria General] dh4645:
I used to just go over top, but I ran into some issues, so I do full wipes now. Task 14 for galaxy 10.1 rom includes titanium (full version does, slim doesnt as far as i can see) so it works like a charm, but the aria makes me do extra steps.

Maybe my old version of cwm won't do it? Maybe something else?

I just restored my nandroid for now.
[HTC Aria General] HTCscout:
I installed this over top of the kang CM7.2. Everything is working fine EXCEPT for some reason when i select a ringtone it would play a recorded audio file off my SD card under My Documents > My Recordings. I can browse ring tones through the file browser, I can select them through Settings > Sounds, but it will only play the recorded file rather than the selected ringtone. I deleted that directory from my SD card and now it won't play any sound for ringtone. It defaults to vibrate..

Any ideas?

Thanks
[HTC Aria General] Nutshell69:
Well - it was 'Nightly' for one night at least

:)
[HTC Aria General] dh4645:
hah, yeah. seems good so far to me
[HTC Aria General] Divino:
...and... ...your camera is working?

I notice my camera doesn't work after last update... ;-(
[HTC Aria General] dh4645:
i have the most recent nightly and my camera works, just took a pic.

seems to work better than the last time i used it.
[HTC Aria General] Nutshell69:
yes , my camera is working just fine.

The oddity I am experiencing is the the email - and notifications - doesnt seem to always catch up to what reality is (meaning sometimes i have a flashing notification but no new email, sometimes it shows I have 47 new emails - when in fact I have 1)

Using both IMAP and Exchange (push)
[HTC Aria General] Divino:
Well, new download and new flash!

Yes, I've a Sony LiveView and the watch say (using my Aria GPRS) I've a new mail, I read it on the watch buth the phone give this mail after 1-2 hours (or by manual refresh).

I try to delete data on gmail app and resync buth doesn't solve the problem.

...could be hardware related?

[HTC Aria General] Divino:
In this thread we use plain CM7 (without GO Launcher!)...

...is possible to use your kernel using whis ROM?

Formatting boot partitions and installing your zip doesn't work, doesn't boot!
[HTC Aria General] tommyguns818:
So here's munjeni's kernel that can be flashed through clockwork. I wiped cache and installed this puppy. No need to clear boot or what not. I've been running his kernel using smartassV2 and is working great!! total daily driver kernel for me. Im not responsible if your phone puffs in smoke or breaks....use at your own risk. MAKE NANDROID FIRST!! I flashed this kernel right on top of newest nightly. Theres some new governors :) so thanks to him!
[HTC Aria General] Jmizzle:
(android noob here)What's the advantage of changing the kernel? Does the phone run better?
[HTC Aria General] sd73ta:
That's the link for cm9. First post updated for cm7.
[HTC Aria General] Divino:
Sure, phone run faster and drain less battery, is a kind of magic (cit.).

It can overclock (run faster) when needed and underclock when the phone sleep, using different policy (try smartassv2, as smallest clock when the phone is in your pocket).
[HTC Aria General] Divino:
...you use normal cm7?

Mine doesn't boot, even cleaning boot!

(no smoke)
[HTC Aria General] munjeni:
Ok, here is latest cm7-nightly -> http://www.mediafire.com/?kqo6rkzb3d499zj with my kernel, with scripts on boot time (aps2sd, autodetect and mount swap, autodetect sd-ext partition-2-3-4 and automount, cpu owerclocked to interactive 224-806...), fixed lightsensor lib that I compiled and that I use for all my builds, latest gaps...

Its complete in zip so you not need to install boot_update.zip! Just wipe all partitions using recovery, go to mounts and storage and format boot and format system, remove all android folders from sd card, place zip to sd card, install zip, reboot... enjoy! :)

Optional feature (not needed if you no want!):

If you want, create 3 primary partition on your sd card, before installing this rom and before wiping partitions, with the order: fat32 -> ext4 -> swap. Note: must be all 3 partitions primary, not extended!!! Ext4 will be automounted as a partition that android will use for app space! Swap will be automounted so you will have more virtual memory! Fat32 will be used as a sd card!

Uh, and please let me know what not working :D
[HTC Aria General] tommyguns818:
@Divino, Im using regular cm7 latest nightly and all I did was WIPE CACHE and install boot_update.zip attachment that I posted, in Post #36. I tried the kernel file download on Munjeni's custom cm7 thread and wasn't working on numerous times for me. So I pm'd OP and let him know that it wasn't working, so he sent me the attachment that I have provided a couple posts back. Which worked for me. so thank the man above me ^^^ :D
[HTC Aria General] Divino:
Just cache? No dalvik? I try...

No, fixed on splash screen (HTC quietly brilliant)! ;_(

Others?
[HTC Aria General] drowningchild:
swap on sd is slow, add zram(compcache), compressed swap in ram, see my git for patches etc
[HTC Aria General] munjeni:
You runing cm7 rom?
[HTC Aria General] jamus28:
Hey all, it's been a while since I updated my aria. I'm still running 260. Battery life is not great. In fact, I remember it being a lot better with one of the sub-100 nightlies I used for a month last year.

I don't care about special features at all. Does anyone have an opinion on the rom/kernel that gives me the maximal battery life for my old phone? How's this guy compare to 260?
[HTC Aria General] epiteto:
Install this : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1430267
[HTC Aria General] Divino:
Sure, last nightly! ...and this kernel doesn't work!

I think could be related to "v6 supercharger".
[HTC Aria General] munjeni:
With recovery you have option to create 3 patitions:) but I'm not surre if recovery have option to create ext4 (for sure have ext2)... but its not important, cm7 working good with ext2 also! Or if you are on windows machine here is good tool that I use -> http://partitionwizard.com/free-partition-manager.html
[HTC Aria General] drumist:
Yes, Gparted is fine.
[HTC Aria General] dh4645:
sorry aria. the SGS2 just replaced u
[HTC Aria General] benbailey84:
SGS3 is on my list when it comes out.
[HTC Aria General] tommyguns818:
^^My buddys got an sgs2 said not allot of support as he thought there would be. So he's waiting for sgs3. I'd take a faster phone anyday but love the aria. Anyways @ Divino, not quit sure as if v6 supercharger would effect you or not on kernel download.
[HTC Aria General] Divino:
Supercharger change a lot of system files...

...just installed new kang versione and still hangs installing boot update!

...drowningchild kernel works fine!

maybe drowningchild could make a new update using this governors? ;-9
[HTC Aria General] dh4645:
i dont get phones when they first come out. too expensive

$100 for a phone is my max and the SGS2 is $99 at best buy and my wife had $15 off, so i got it.

i looked at the samsung galaxy note. that thing is ginormous.
[HTC Aria General] dandrumheller:
I moved to the i777 (att sgs2) at launch. Support there at the time was similar to aria support at launch. However, there is excellent support now, with numerous very competent devs (more in number and equal in skill to the aria at it's peak). Plus we reap many benefits from the i9100 community.
[HTC Aria General] benbailey84:
I created the partitions last night through cwm. Flashed your version, OMG it is fast as hell!!! way more snappy and responsive than plain ole cm7... thanks for u...

*edit* seems as though I have already "thanked" you in this thread...
[HTC Aria General] munjeni:
Why dont you try? -> http://www.mediafire.com/?kqo6rkzb3d499zj
[HTC Aria General] tommyguns818:
@ benbailey84, what version of clockwork you have?
[HTC Aria General] Divino:
Tried a couple of day ago, I try 3-4 version, I think the problem is supercargher, wich change a lot of system init files and after boot update can't find some link...
[HTC Aria General] drowningchild:
governors are pointless imo

interactive is all i use for -all- my devices

most the things you can do with sysfs ;)
[HTC Aria General] benbailey84:
5.*.*
[HTC Aria General] munjeni:
I think your device have a lot of the bad blocks... or maybe you need to try:

using fastboot:

- fastboot oem task 29

than:

maybe your sd card is corupted after a lot of formatings, copying, deleting...etc, or maybe is not propertly formated!

- wipe your sd card completely (dd method using linux) or (MiniTool Partition Wizard Home Edition using windows - there is option for wiping)... full wipe your sd card (its about 15 minutes of work)

- then format sd card to fat32

than:

- copy http://www.mediafire.com/?kqo6rkzb3d499zj to sd card, do not copy other things

- go to recovery and wipe everything again (boot, sd-ext, data, cache, system)

- install zip... I think android will work!

If not, maybe your recovery is bad? Try again from this -> http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=22381517&postcount=16
[HTC Aria General] Divino:
You'r wrong, I've a new 16GB 10x SDcard with right partitions (thanks to CWM5 and verified with gparted).

Installing your rom WIPING ALL works fine but I don't wont to be so drastic.

I just wont to try different kernels with new governors, not loose all my improvements, CM7+drowingchildskernel+v6supercharger is really really fast and stable!
[HTC Aria General] munjeni:
Ok, I see you using custom things, but it will now work "always" as you think becouse boot.img contain kernel and ramdisk (ramdisk sometimes is diferent and sometimes is compatible only with that rom) so why you not repack an boot.img with an kernel, its easy? Replace only zImage, keep initrd, place modules to system/lib/modules
[HTC Aria General] Divino:
after each update of the rom I need to recreate the whole package?

Perhaps it is better to pray drowning ...

(come on, dro ', we love you, they say that sleep mode is better!)

Any ideas on this?
[HTC Aria General] drumist:
Try deleting your .thumbnails folder under /sdcard/DCIM/ , then reboot and run Gallery again. It should regenerate the thumbnails.
