[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjp419:
Hi, ok so I've been having several issues with my cappy ... here they, not in ranking order:

1. Hot reboots (phone will start lagging when using app or browser and then just restart, typically boot time is quite long when that happens)

2. Freezes/gets stuck often. Doesn't matter if i have 100% or 10% or anything in between, phone will freeze up a lot, happens when using app, browser, navigation, and sometimes for no specific reason...if it doesn't hot reboot then Im forced to pull battery and restart, boot time again is very lengthy, and occasionally colors on screen are all distorted and pixelated (but do return to normal once booted)

3. Very poor battery life. I probably charge my phone at least 2x during the day and always overnight. Phone can show 85% life, and then freezes, after rebooting/restarting batt shows 70%, wtf?

Here's some stats on my cappy:

Simply stock ics2.0 kk4

Corn kernel 7.06 (bln off, oc off, no tweaks, rfs, sio, ondemandb, lmk 60, SD read ahead 512, voodoo sound & color enabled)

Kk2 modem

I really am at a loss, i have no clue what to do, the other day i was so pissed at my phone i almost drowned in the pool... :-( I was going to start from square one and backup my int SD, apps, and music, then totally wipe SD, and rom, and try reflashing saurom kk4 (don't remember having as many issues re: stability). I initially got the phone in Aug, but had to get a replacement which is a refurb. I'm open to any advice/suggestions anyone out there may have... thanks in advance to all that reply.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Red_81:
When you received the refurb was it on Froyo or Gingerbread? That description sounds like you don't have the Gingerbread bootloaders.

Try going into CWM and wipe data, cache, and dalvik cache. It will take a while to boot after that but it could clean up some of the issues you are having.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjp419:
The refurb was originally on froyo, and have flashed numerous gb, ics, cm, miui roms up to this point... each time I restored my apps (app only) with tibu
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Red_81:
Do you get the pixelated screen on every boot or just on the hot reboots?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjp419:
it happens somewhat sporadically (the pixelated screen colors). but seems its always freezing... can cell phones get viruses? i have lookout, but phones acting a lot like a computer does when its got a virus or something nasty along those lines...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Red_81:
It sounds like you could maybe use a full wipe, format, and flash back to stock. That should clear up whatever could be wrong software-wise.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjp419:
Should I flash back to stock gingerbread or froyo? Then flash saurom? Aldo, should i flash with or without bootloaders?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Red_81:
Gingerbread should be fine. No bootloaders. You should already have the Gingerbread ones.

Or you could try just Flashing Saurom after doing a full wipe and then seeing if your situation improves. I suspect it could be an application causing an issue.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjp419:
The zip I have of saurom is a full wipe... I can still restore my apps with tiny, right (app only, not app & data)?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Red_81:
Yes. That should be fine.

[Huawei Ideos X6] CacingKalung:
I've tried to port the latest 2.6.22, some interesting new features for Miuiv4 but it seems it's the worst release by xiaomi, many bugs in there specially on root permission even after override with other root apps, so I've decided to just share my first ics port.

Almost no modification, it's a clean port, without customization.

MIUIv4 is still in the road to the stable one and this is just a stopover.

Download HERE

Some basic functions are working.

How to flash:

1. if came from 2.6.32.x kernel base rom, you've to flash andro-ID RC3 romor Sharp rom first, because it's based on 2.6.35. kernel.

2. Use CWM to flash it

3. You have to wipe data partition if came from another rom, except if you will upgrade from another Miuiv4.

4. After got first home screen, Reboot again.

The first boot will take soooo loong..... next boot will go faster.

For USB Mass Storage to work, use THIS, credit goes to Bexton..... Thanks to vivekb.

Credit:

TJ_Style.... he made all of this possible

proxuser.... for his guide How to port Miuiv4

ardX.... for CM9 base

MIUI team for this great from.

wow CK ....

But size is too bulky i.e. 183 MB ..... Any specific reason ?
[Huawei Ideos X6] CacingKalung:
Haha... no wonder it tooks so long to upload, I didn't realize that.

Ok, I'll take a look why.

EDITTED:::

Oh my god... It could be by accident I missed place another folder in it!!!!

There is an EXTRA 30MBs unusable in it.... Ok, I'll upload another one, DON't flash that fatty file, it won't work :D. I't will be took so long again, my internet connection is bad now.
[Huawei Ideos X6] rockakhtar:
Its taking too much time ....
[Huawei Ideos X6] CacingKalung:
I've remove the download link... I'll update it with the right one.

I still in the office, I'll upload it from my home tonight.
[Huawei Ideos X6] vivekb:
Only 30 mb is not big deal .... already downloaded more than 50 % so instead of waiting for that long .. will flash this fatty one.....:cyclops::cyclops::cyclops:

Yup it has boot.img
[Huawei Ideos X6] vivekb:
I got boot up ... sorry I read your comment after I flashed :p

Edit : Experience is pretty awesome ....

If ck said he forget put the boot.img try flash kernal CK or ABEN
[Huawei Ideos X6] CacingKalung:
lol... I'm bad on file manage... Even some important folders got deleted by accident.

You should reboot again after the home screen shown at the first time, as usual.

Actually I like the new features on 2.6.22. they said xiaomi will fix root issue next week.

I'm still uploading the more thin file. You can download it again if you want to but you will feel no different result :D.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stupidguydhd:
Hi there!

I know there are a lots of questions like this but I'm just so stupid. I tryed to flash with Custom ROM with Clockwork recovery while I have S-ON. (My bootloader is "RELOCKED" if that plays some role).Now I'm stuck on the HTC logo. Can you please help me I'm so despered. Thank you.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronnie498:
Best advice runn the RUU to go back to stock, then use the AAHK TO ROOT your phone then you can flash a custom Rom.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stupidguydhd:
Thank you for the answer. Yes,but the RUU uses the adb so it doesn't work when there is no OS. I tryed to mount system,cache and data through the clockwork recovery but the error this time is that the RUU can't get information for the battery and the "Charge Only" mode. So that's not the way.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sashank:
Did you relock the bootloader manually? How did you unlock it, using AAHK or via www.htcdev.com?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stupidguydhd:
Yes it was relocked using htcdev.com but that was not so important. The bootloader just need to be locked no matter Locked or Relocked. The problem was that I had CWM Recovery installed and when the Bootloader checked every zip (PD98IMG) it was just going back to the menu with no errors. So I flashed an oryginal "Android system recovery (3e)" and the installation began also with no errors.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sashank:
Ok, so find the right PD98IMG for your device and flash it from bootloader. Doesn't need recovery. You should be able to find links pretty easily in Google. Which country are you from and which carrier?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stupidguydhd:
Thank you. I already did it , but my point was that you can't install PD98IMG without the original recovery.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glevitan:
That is wrong. You don´t need recovery to install RUU's. Those are flashed in hboot. If the file isn't working then or the RUU you are using is not the correct for u or the file is not renamed ok. But again RUU's don´t need recovery at all.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] championswimmer:
Just yesterday nikholtus told me

"you cannot repack a ramdisk twice. you always have to use a kernel.sin as source. a ramdisk extracted from kernel.elf will not work"

now ^^ that was strange, because if we can pack once we should be able to repack over and over again. So i went about trying to find what the problem was.

The problem as i understand is, the people over here at Xperia 2012 forum seem to use 7zip to extract the ramdisk from kernel.elf as explained in atarii's thread here

But we need to understand, that the proper method to unpack a ramdisk is

mkdir ramdisk-contents
cd ramdisk-contents
guncip -c ../ramdisk.img | cpio -i

using the 7zip method will destroy all symlinks and will NOT retain file permissions in the ramdisk

Thus such an extracted ramdisk will NOT be able to be reused by repacking it.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] someone755:
I've heard from a very good source that our kernels don't in fact have symlinks. That same source has also said that the OP here is wrong and the ramdisk may be used as many times as we wish. And that we may use 7zip for unpacking it.

So yeah, I'll be using 7zip...

So what does everyone think is the best way to get the Tmo version on the value plan? I've been assuming ebay, but do the tmobile specials that pop up every now and then apply to the value plans too? Are there price reductions for them?
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] PePPaZ:
I just bit the bullet and bought from them. Stupidest part is how they extend you contract for 2 years WITHOUT EVEN SUBSIDIZING THE PHONE!

Best bet would be waiting for Amazon to sell the T-Mobile version outright. But I couldn't wait and spent the full $700
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Poke_N_PDA:
They aren't subsidizing the phone, but they are giving an interest free loan. IMHO, that's a pretty good deal. Especially when you consider that the value plan prices are probably the best deal in wireless (even against the pre-paid options). My wife and I can get all the minutes, text, and data we need for $75/month, and that's before my corporate discount.

When the prices are this good, I almost want to sign a contract. Contracts can work for the betterment of both parties. It's just that it has very rarely benefited the consumer in the wireless industry.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Outrager:
Any chance of calling them up for a discount on the phone even though you're on a Value Plan? I saw a lot of people getting $100-$200 credits on the official thread but they didn't say what plan they were on.

If you're really worried, go for 10GB. i'm sure its still cheaper than vz unlimited.
