There's no need to flash 4.0.3 kernel.. Hotbooting is enough. You can do this in flashtool from "fastboot".

Makes it more convenient as after you run the root toolkit, phone will reboot with the 4.0.4 kernel normally.
[Xperia Arc General] siyman:
May you be so glad to describe "hotbooting" a bit? I'm not sure If i understood it the right way.
[Xperia Arc General] now.i.feel:
Hot booting means booting a kernel without acually flashing it.. this requires an unlocked bootloader..

If you have an unlocked bootloader check my posts and you will find a better way to root your device
[Xperia Arc General] siyman:
Well, you're completely right: your method seems to be more nice - BUT I don't want to lose my warranty here in Germany (it's 2 years actually) and I don't need a custom rom so the rooting described here is just an alternative.
[Xperia Arc General] AeonWorld:
My friend I believe you didn't read the title enough, its for locked bootloaders, as an unlocked one is very easy to root as you can flash even custom kernels unlike a locked one, still thanks for sharing your thoughts
[Xperia Arc General] Barleyman:
Now if only there were some rooted 4.0.4 kernels/firmwares for mk16..! Preferably with CWM!

Earlier today, I started a thread telling a little story about Android. But, for no reason, it was closed shortly after. No explanations, nothing.

I did it in the right section, it was not offensive or rude, I don't know what the hell I did wrong. I don't mind my topics being closed, but with no explanations, this is just bullsh*t.

If somebody could explain it to me, it'd be cool.

Fyi, the link to the topic: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1683939

Thought it might be funny to tell a story about my two years using Android using a kinda-dramatic style, but I don't get where it's against the rules.

It's in the "off-topic" section, the same one where people tell the song they are currently listening to, or other things cool to share but not more relevant than my thread. As long as I don't infringe the basic rules, I don't get it.

Contrary to popular belief, off-topic is not a place where you can open a thread for anything you like and it just flies. It follows the same rules that apply everywhere else in the forum. In this particular case, the rule is about not opening threads that already exist. I did link you to two threads that were relevant to your post.

As for this thread, if you have a problem with a mod decision then by all means question it, but don't open a thread to do it. Send a PM to the mod in question (namely me, in this case) and

Dear all

May i ask if all AOKP roms are unable to make video calls from dialer? e.g. stock dialer?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bored_stupid:
You can ask.. but if you dont try them all youself, you will never know.

Sent from my GT-I9100 using Xparent ICS Blue Tapatalk 2
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
Also, video calls from the stock dialer need carrier support. If your carrier doesn't support this feature (mine doesn't), it doesn't matter what ROM you load, it won't work.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billab0n6:
the problem is there isn't even any icon to try at all...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billab0n6:
My carrier does support but there isn't any icons for video call on my dialer
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
I just did 2 min of internet research. (Google - it's a wonderful tool...)

The answer I came up with: video calls from the dialer is a Samsung framework dependent feature. Thus, no AOSP or AOKP ROM will have it available from the dialer.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DizZyRaScaL:
Yup that's correct.

[LG Optimus 2x] skylinegt77:
OOOOOOOk... soooooooooooo...

from now on i will leave the kernels to people who know what theyr doing because i didnt get the results i wanted plus i dont know nearly enough to make it how i want it

BAAAAAAAAAAAAM...

i really dont know how to do this very well so pardon me if i screw up, i made this kernel with stefan gundhoer's bases, i didnt do many modifications, kernel is essencialy the same, just with my personal clocks on every part of the phone, the name speaks for itself, and though my phone can run it, many o2x's out there may not be able to run this, needless to say this doesnt kill phones, but anyway use it at your own risk :D

credits: Stefan Gundhoer: this is all his work, only tweaked by me

Korumera: who was very kind in lending a noob some upload space

all things said, hope you enjoy it and if u like it, dont forget to thank me. even if you dont, just thank me so i can be happy :D

kernel name:gueste2X_skyline_UltimatePhoneBurner

DOWNLOADS:http://www.xdafileserver.nl/ultimatephoneburner-kernel/

here's what u all wanted:clocks:

cpu max:1.56Ghz

ddr2 max:300 Mhz(failed to increase it quite simply coz im a noob :D )

avp:320 Mhz

gpu: 366Mhz

I\O default:sio

if you decide to try out this kernel, make sure to run cf-bench a few times, its the best way you have of knowing if it really is stable, when it comes to stability testing, cf-bench is the way to go.
[LG Optimus 2x] hakankarani:
Please could you tell what differences does your kernel has over the original build of Stefan's?
[LG Optimus 2x] skylinegt77:
almost forgot. i will post benchmark scores for the non bielievers very soon :D
[LG Optimus 2x] skylinegt77:
not many differences, only everything overclocked. and i do mean everything...

will post details on the op in a few mins
[LG Optimus 2x] owain94:
could you also post the clokcs please =D??

will be usefull for poeple that know how far they can go on their phone

for example one of my 2x devices only can go up to 1.2

but my other 2x can be clocked to 1.6
[LG Optimus 2x] skylinegt77:
dont worry guys, im just sooo excited that im having a real hard time focusing, :D will post clocks in a few mins, all of em. just bare with me a bit since im a noob :D

ok, maybe it will take a bit longer guys, i just tried to re flash the kernel and somehow the file was corrupt, im recompiling right now and will sort everything. so sorry
[LG Optimus 2x] skylinegt77:
so now everything is pretty explicit, you know what ur getting if u install it, i cant promise your phone will run it, but if it does u will love it
[LG Optimus 2x] xilw3r:
I approve this ! :D
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
hi

good to see you trying something with your own :)

ddr2max 640mhz? i dont understand this. default is 300Mhz, you doubled it and not freezed?

by the way the max safe frequency is 1556Mhz at 1350mV
[LG Optimus 2x] skylinegt77:
yeah, i always end up wanting things that most people are affraid of trying XD thats 1 of the reasons why im saving money to go take an android programing course. well, cant save much now since im unemployed XD

yeah buuut, to be honest, i just did another version, i wasnt very confortable with the temperatures my phone was reaching, somehow gueste seems to heat up more than etana by a lot, but we cant compare, 2 completely different builds. why dont u make us a 1556 mhz version? id love it :D

as for the ram issue, dont ask me, but i turned it up 20 mhz at a time and the scores for ram on antutu went up every time
[LG Optimus 2x] Stefan Gündhör:
:D you OC'd everything to the limits, no wonder the phone get's hot :D
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
i already did, raise the oc limit from 1504mhz/1325mV to 1556Mhz/1350mV

it doesn't seems instable or more heat. it can handle this, of course im not using this at default only in xoc mode :)

but im definetly not reccomended to raise the sdram freq above to 350Mhz. it can damage your hardware! the memory is very sensitive. maybe for a short time it will work really fast but long time cause irreversible damage.

the max gpu freq is 400Mhz

the max avp is 300Mhz

the max vde freq is 700Mhz

if you go above that levels you risk the potentital hardware damage.
[LG Optimus 2x] skylinegt77:
now u only need to increase the ram freq a bit ;) when can we get our hands on the modified version? :D
[LG Optimus 2x] skylinegt77:
thing is, i tried the cpu oc first without oc'ing anything else and the result was the same...
[LG Optimus 2x] Divyan:
Jeez! Stefan...

In other words you have unleashed every possibility of a thermo-nuclear war within our phones with the release of DIY kernel builder :D

I like that...
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
i have a feeling that will be ended up badly after a while :rolleyes:

developing a kernel its not a plaything

Stefan: you are truly a brave man about releasing your kernel builder pack. probably many noob user will ask you for help :) which mean a lot of private message :)
[LG Optimus 2x] skylinegt77:
i dont think it will end up badly simply because the phones cpu will crash due to instability before anything seriously wrong happens.
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
im not exactly talking about that :)

i just think its not a good idea tell all the people to develop a kernel. its actually a hard thing. that will be ended up badly :)
[LG Optimus 2x] salisbury_steak:

[LG Optimus 2x] skylinegt77:
if i worried even a single bit about burning stuff up i wouldnt oc my phone to 1.6, 1.56, 1.50, and i certainly wouldnt oc my core2duo extreme from 2.93 to 4.20 XD

plus i said it many times, not my responsability if any1 burns its phone or bricks it, im just sharing sumthing that i did for myself :D

for those who are waiting for it, wont be long, im working on the benchmarks right now, any particular ones u guys wanna see?
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
i started with the same way, first just modify the ironkernel a little, then...

but this is not a play, or fun. this is required precise work. i was started to search what can i do by myself. if someone can learn with our own way how can build a custom kernel its a good start. im doing this almost a half year now and im still made mistakes from time to time. i spend lot of my free time for this and im even a noob compared to Ricardo for example.

this process need desperation patience and hard work. no excuse.
[LG Optimus 2x] skylinegt77:

[LG Optimus 2x] skylinegt77:
i think u just lack the time, because you obviously know much more than me when it comes to linux stuff...

which isnt that hard... :D

That's the short term talk.

In the long run you can be damn sure your O2X will not live as much as other non OC'ed O2X's.

[LG Optimus 2x] buedi:
Still don't know the reason for that benchmark point higher flyer mega-OC nowIgotfivepointsmoreinbenchmark stuff [...] we need stability and battery lifetime ;-)!

Anyway, keep up your work, I'm sure there are people which need 2 more benchmark-points *g.

Please notice, that my msg is knowingly sharp-tongued :-D!

To make it short: keep up the work and thx!
[LG Optimus 2x] LarsPT:
It's pretty simple. It's the reason why long bridges have metal joints in the edges, and the reason why light bulbs go out.

Temperature (or changes in temperature) make materials expand and contract. The bigger the variations in temperature the more strongly these materials expand and contract.

In our case (a mobile phone) this leads to stress in the tracks. It will eventually lead to broken tracks, a dead phone.

Unless you have a real use for an overclocked phone, other than showing your awesome benchmark results to your friend, I will warn against it.

I've had short-life CPU problems before, so it's not like I'm just talking out of my a$$ ;)

In a PC you can control temperature with good cooling. In our phone you can't. So proceed with caution, you have been warned :)

I'm sticking to safe kernels, never use oc, but hey, I'm not gonna tell people what to do, 2 posts above exactly what I wanted to be written.
[LG Optimus 2x] skylinegt77:
even a deesktop cpu will be affected by oc'inng, when you oc you have to increase voltage which causes a faster erosion inside the cpu, but in the end, none of our phones will live long enough for its cpu to fail due to erosion or temperature...

plus if you notice, there are phones and tablets with tegra2 processors clocked from factory at 1.4 ghz so were not increasing it a lot, and its not gonna be the 40 or 50 degrees the phone heats up to that is gonna make anything expand that much...
[LG Optimus 2x] skylinegt77:
so now i dont get the difference, cm7 gives you more scores even at lower freq. cpu and ddr2 always apear to be faster on cm7 than on stock
[LG Optimus 2x] Ferrum Master:
I am pushing my two years old i7 920@ 4.2Ghz since begining... And i haven't seen a degraded CPU ever since my first 8088(except LNO and LHe... cases :D)(guys you do remember the hilarious Turbo button? xD) always there were human errors, like scissors in the power outlet... :D.

For those i7 cpu strong leakage starts from 3.8Ghz... down below those cpu didn't even need a voltage increase... very good insulator between the gates.

So how good the silicon is? Hard to tell... mine's isn't quite stable at 1.5, but very stable @1.4... And is the golden frequency as I think, I don't need really more... GPU wise? Hard to tell... RAM... yes... the slowest part in our system.

But but... you can read meanwhile Nokia N9 OC section... 2 dead ones... so... my suggestion is to use this kernel on your dear colleagues(while he is drinking a coffee) or some friends O2X(while he is taking a piss) phone at initial phase... :D:D

N9 OC Modules
[LG Optimus 2x] skylinegt77:
i got a core2duo, i assembled my computer myself, since i assembled it it has been running on 4.2 Ghz when its stock speed was 2.93, still after 5 or 6 years of heavy use i cant notice any decrease in efficiesncy or power. plus, if you guys think about it, when this kind of thing is produced, they always test it at a much higher clock than the 1 you buy it with
[LG Optimus 2x] skylinegt77:
ok i just noticed, i changed the ram speed values but nothing happened, so maybe sum1 can tell me how to successfuly change the ddr2 freq?
[LG Optimus 2x] LarsPT:
You are a bit mixed up there my friend. You don't need to increase the voltage because of leakage.

Now... If you change a CPU every two years... by all means, OC the **** out of them. If, on another hand, you would like your PC to last 5+ years like my AMD Athlon did, I wouldn't do it. My Core2Duo E3300 died after 3 years, not even OC'ed that much (though it was on almost always 24/7).

Just my opinion (except for my first paragraph). In fact I've already explained why you need to increase voltage with increasing frequency somewhere else in this forum, but I can do it again if I must.
[LG Optimus 2x] skylinegt77:
like i said, my core2duo is oc'd from 2.93 to 4.20, i have it for almost 6 years now and its still running as healthy as ever, and its on almost all day+ playing very demanding games
[LG Optimus 2x] LarsPT:
Even though you will probably think I'm being sarcastic, I am very happy for you!

Still, I hope you understand that, in electronics, devices are designed and simulated using what we call "cornering". Which means they design the circuits and then they use the parameters for the transistors in all the "corners" of the processing margins. Usually with 6 sigma (which means approximatelly 99999.9% of the devices (mostly transisters) produced will not be as bad as that they are simulating). Take it from someone who has done this professionally.

One in every million CPU will have some pretty bad transistors... and if you push this CPU, you will fry it pretty quickly.

Me personally I would say you are a lucky buyer and not an average buyer, from what you tell me.

Maybe I was an unlucky buyer. Nonetheless what you are saying does not advocate that overclocking has no stress effects on electronics, far from it.

Furthermore (lol!) I will repeat something I've said before... if you're overclocking just to show some nice benchmark scores to your friends, and have no noticeable effect on your daily use... I would say you have a small penis and self-esteem issues :) just kidding okay? ;)

On the other hand, overclocking on a PC has noticeable effects, thus the tradeoff is more understandable (and acceptable) imho!

Still, please do share your work. I always say there is no such thing as too many options (except maybe in a restaurant and you take one hour to decide what you're going to eat).

Maybe someone out there uses his phone to do intensive mathematic calculations... I don't, but that's okay, I'm not saying your work is pointless. I would just prefer that you wouldn't say that overclocking has no effects in the long run, because that's not true.
[LG Optimus 2x] Ferrum Master:
I dunno where is the problem... insulator problems occur especially when increase switching frequency in semiconductors... and there for current leakage in the die package itself... I dunno where you misunderstood something silly like increase voltage because of leakage?
[LG Optimus 2x] skylinegt77:
didnt say it has no side effects, just said ur phone\computer will never live long enough for you to notice them...
[LG Optimus 2x] LarsPT:
As far as I know, that is wrong.

Let's see if at least we have the same definition of leakage. Leakage is the current you get from the gate to the source of a transistor in the idle state. This is a problem in modern technologies because the distance between these contacts is increasingly small (I've worked with 35 nm, and I think the state-of-the-art at that time was 22 nm).

You might be confusing this with dynamic dissipation, which is caused by the charging and discharging of the parasitic capacitances of a transistor (the most important being the gate to source capacitance [Cgs for friends]), and that, yes, that is the one that's very nasty with increasing frequency.

Nothing to do with insulator.

Maybe that clears things up for you?

EDIT:

Current leakage to the substrate (your die package, I presume) is negligeable compared to the dynamic dissipation I've just mentioned.
