[LG Nitro HD] JINXR:
My phone is having severe battery and temperature issues and I need to take it in for a replacement before my 30 days is up.

Long story short, I had to use the unbrick method to get back to the stock v10f rom from the ICS leak.

I immediately got the notification for a ~24mb update, which I'm assuming is V10i. It downloaded fine, but after it reboots the phone to install it, it immediately fails at 2% and then boots back up into v10f. The phone is rooted coming from the unbrick method, so maybe that's why it fails?

So I unrooted it using SuperOneClick, but it doesn't fully unroot it. In ADB I can still type SU and get the # sign. However, it does remove superuser and busy box. Also, the root checker apps in the market show that it's not rooted.

So I tried the update again, but it keeps failing.

I did a factory reset and tried again, but it didn't help. Also, I can still get # in ADB shell.

So I used the LG Mobile Support Tool, but it says my phone is completely up to date. :confused:

I'm not FULLY convinced my phone has a hardware issue. But it was on v10i when I got it, and it was getting really, really hot and data connectivity was horrible. It said there was an update, which was v10j I think, and that didn't help either.

So I tried the ICS leak and that made things even worse.

v10f actually works pretty well. My reception and connectivity is great. And it doesn't get quite as hot and the battery is lasting much longer. But just this afternoon it got really hot again and the battery dropped 12% within a minute or two.

So I think it's best to just take it in and get a replacement, just in case. However, I'm worried about taking it in when it still has partial root and it won't successfully update.

Thanks for your help!
[LG Nitro HD] aaki_rocker:
shouldn't this be in the general thread ?

to unroot- download super su from play store !

in super su, there is an option to fully unroot !

try that !
[LG Nitro HD] JINXR:
Thanks! But that didn't work.

I read up on DoomLord's unroot kit. I was scared to use it because he says not to use it if you didn't root your phone with his method. Well, I used zerg rush in SuperOneClick and DoomLord uses zerg rush too. So I tried his unroot kit and it worked! Finally got Permission Denied in ADB Shell.

I'm downloading the update now and will try to install it in a few minutes.
[LG Nitro HD] JINXR:
UPDATE:

Well, even having full unroot didn't help. I still got the 0x013e error at 2%. :mad:

Trying another system restore now.
[LG Nitro HD] JINXR:
Update 2:

Did a system restore and it still didn't help. The update keeps failing at 2% with a 0x013e error. :confused:
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] aldersonalex:
I am at a loss here. I am running CLK 1.5 PA 1.1a with tytung r3, however, the device gets icon flash similar to icecreamtosti, where the icons do not respond without a reboot.

I wanted to flash Dorimanx v6.9 or v7.2 HWA, and understand I need to place the ROMs initrd.gz file in the initrd-custom folder. I have tried this on Snow Leopard & XP to no avail using a variety of different compression programs including 7-zip. I unzip the kernel and the ROM, put the PA 1.1a initrd.gz in the correct folder and rezip it. Each time though, even after re-downloading the kernel and ROM, I get an error within CWM, which reads that the installation has been aborted. Why is this? Do I need to re-compile the kernel in Android Kitchen? (I do not know how to do this by the way) or what else am I doing incorrectly? I have trawled the XDA HD2 forum, but had no luck. Suggestions? :(
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] elesbb:
You don't unzip the contents. By doing so you break the signing. What you wanna do is open your ROM zip using 7 zip then browse to the initrd.gz file copy to your desktop, close everything. Now open the kernel zip file browse to the initrd-custom folder open it. Now double click and drag the initrd.gz file from your desktop to the 7-zip window which has the kernel zip opened to the initrd-custom folder.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] aldersonalex:
I did exactly as you said, but still the same end result :/
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] elesbb:
Have you tried installing the kernel without adding the initrd.gz? I remember getting that error when the download was inturupted or something. So if you still get that error without editing the zip, then it most likely is the zip file and you need to redownload. Because if you did exactly as i said then it should be working. Im a long time user of his kernel's on almost every ROM out there and never once ran into any troubles. But we will surely figure this out :)

Can you post a link to the ROM you are using, and i'll download it and edit the kernel then repost it in this thread for you.

---------- Post added at 03:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:43 PM ----------

Here it is i found the thread. :) its kernel 7.2 from DM.

Here
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] aldersonalex:
Thank you so much, is this the HWA Kernel though?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] elesbb:
Yes 7.2 hwa from dorimanx :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] aldersonalex:
Thank you so much, I wanted to experiment whether v6.9 is better than v7.2. Would it be possible to repack that kernel too?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] elesbb:
Haha yes I could, I personally preferred 7.2 over 6.9 but my favorite is 6.5D xP

Did you flash the zip yet?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] aldersonalex:
I flashed it with success, but it doesn't feel as snappy as tytung r3, it takes a few seconds to unlock and load programs, even clocked at 1612mhz and experimenting with ZRAM on and off. Thank you though, I will probably stick with tytung's for the moment though, did you use 7-zip to transfer the initrd.gz file?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] elesbb:
Hmm i wonder if its cause i took the initrd.gz from an older version of Paranoidandroid. I have version .6 on my computer thats why i used it. I'll redownload the latest and try with that. I might even flash it myself and test it out. Maybe the lib files need to be transfered as well. Dorimanx has by far been the best kernel for myself, but i dont really care for ICS yet but when i was testing the waters i used DM kernel and i loved it. Snappy responsive and pretty awesome. It just lacks a boat load of features i rely on in CM7. CM9 claimed they will re add the features once they iron kinks out so once they release a better build i will most likely convert :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] RobE.:
Very curious by this statement, and admittedly, my own android experience is limited... I've used ACA SD android for a number of months, and have switched over to ICS. Currently with ICT & DM's 6.9 kernel, but love the UI in hybrid mode of PA... and so, am really curious what you meant when you alluded to 'missing features' that were in CM7, but not CM9. What was lost? What am I missing? (sincere question) :) Thanks, -Rob
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] elesbb:
Well, there are two that i pretty much LOVE and cannot live without xD

Those are,

1. Disable full screen (status bar remains visible no matter the app, has a "hide" button if you wish to use full screen in a game or app, then you can unhide by pressing home key(my choice))

2. Really big one, lockscreen gestures. I love being able to draw a 'C' on my lockscreen and open the phone whitout having a custom app slot being taken up. Plus, gestures allow for an app to run while still displaying the lockscreen.

THose are the only two big ones i will miss, there are a few more small ones but i dont remember without flashing CM9 and checking :P And its been awhile since ive tested the waters, so i might download the latest AOKP and CM9 to see where they are at. But they both are good and pretty cool. CM7 is just perfect for me. No issues what so ever.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] aldersonalex:
It would be brilliant if you could test out the kernel with the initrd.gz from 1.1a PA, that might explain why it felt slow when I tested the original.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] maxfac1234:
Hi guys,

Wonder if anyone can shed a light why this happens. It's been going on for the last few months – Originally I thought I'd wait and see if the problem resolves by itself. But seems to get slightly worse over time now.

I am currently: Rooted & Unlocked

Problem: System hangs after reboot at home screen with message “Process System Not Responding” - with option to wait or terminate the process – Whatever option is chosen, ATP will reboot itself.

Frequency: Unpredictable – But once the message appears after switching it on, ATP will reboot itself 2 to 4 times before I can use it again.

I had done a lot of searches, but there doesn't appear to be any solution / or anyone knows why this is happening. One useful comment I found recently said this may be due to some processes starting before they are meant to during boot up sequence – but no details were given.

What I had tried (based on numerous suggestions after searching the net):

Wipe Dalvik Cache / Caches

Clear “Media Storage” and “Google Framework Services” data

Remove my accounts (currently I have two accounts registered in my ATP) and re-register the accounts.

Remove all the widgets from home screen

Hard reset / Factory Reset

Finally – Multiple different combinations of the above

Getting quite frustrated here.

Wonder if anyone can help please?

Thank you in advance.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] maxfac1234:
[Q] "Process System Not Responding" researching and even downgrading to .15 --> .21, I think the problem is finally solved.

Allegedly "Process System is Not Responding" may be caused by process(es) that hangs or take too long to complete during the boot up sequence. So I uninstall blindly one program at a time - and it appears that Cachemate might have caused it.

Prior to this, every 3-4 normal boots, were followed by 2-3 "Process System is Not Responding" until a normal boot followed. I am now 48 hours problem free. Hopefully it will stay this way.

Edit (11/06) - Ok, spoke too soon. Got the message again after 24hours of use and after roughly 15 normal reboots (I switched ATP off/on these many times to make sure the problem was well and truly gone). The Cachemate could just be a red herring then. However there appear to be less in term of frequency. I noted that the message came on after I watched a video (3hours long video - 600mb in size) and rebooted ATP. Tried disabling media storage (no real logic here, I thought I just gave it a go) - but the problem is still there. So this evening, I reflashed the asus .21 rom --> downgrade to .15 --> reroot --> upgrade back to .21 (again to real logic here, thought I give it a go).

I can't think what else to do. I wonder if large hosts file (mine is 8mb) could cause the problem or the wallpaper I use that is stored under /sdcard - but again, the problem/message only comes up randomly.

Edit (13/06) - Finally managed to narrow down the problem. Everytime a large hosts file (mine is about 8mb) is created, the problem comes (faithfully everytime). And when the original smaller hosts file is restored - problem is gone entirely.

Any input on workaround is very much appreciated.

Try Vol down + Power button, wait till you get the options of Cold Boot Linux or Wipe Data, choose Wipe Data and see if that get you going.

If that fail double check the MD5Sum for the ROM file and flash again.

You're on stock. Try a **total** wipe using the superwipe script from the ARHD thread, (make sure you can get a ROM back on there with MicroSD or adb, as it wipes EVERYTHING) and flash Guevor's v17c, v20, v21 or 21.6. With any ROM. That *should* fix the reboots.

This one will be of more interest to kernel developers.

Link to Spreadsheet: Results

RcrdBrt asked me to see which memory allocator performed best, and provided me with four identical kernels except for the allocators being SLQB, SLAB, SLUB, and SLOB.

SLUB turns out to have a slight performance advantage, as RcrdBrt had suspected.

The rank was:

SLUB - 980.56

SLQB - 972.17

SLAB - 967.72

SLOB - 967.72

Not much difference really, but every little helps, as they say at Tesco (Britain's leading super market/Religion).

Thanks to RcrdBrt for trusting me with this nice little study, and to Chainfire for the very useful benchmarking app. (See here)

Methodology

Technical detail (it's not necessary to read this!)

I used CF-Bench to obtain values for:

Native MALLOCS

Native Mem Read

Native Mem Write

Java Mem Read

Java Mem Write

...and used statistical methods to boil 10 passes for each allocator down to one final score: 10 passes is enough to get the mean and median within one percent of each other, i.e. establishes a confidence in the mean, assuming normally distributed data. Three standard deviations are subtracted from the mean, to show the minimum score we'd expect 99.7% of results to be above. This is to penalize variability (high peaks are less significant than a good consistency). The geometric mean is taken of the five end results to provide one final score.
