Hi all

I'm using the XS-Kernel on ARHD. I like it, but i'm pretty new to rooting and hacking with my Incredible (previous i had a wildfire which was s-off'd, but only for flashing Android 2.3)

Now i have some questions about the XS-Kernel

First, i'm using s2w now, cause my powerbutton is broken. But I heard it uses more battery. Thats clear. I send my phone to repair. After that i don't want to use s2w. I can disable it with the flashable zip, but after a restart the setting is reset. How can I permanently disable s2w?

Second Question: What is VDD? Is it for undervolting? How can I undervolt my phone? For the cpu i use SetCPU.

Can someone help me with oc/uv daemons?

It would be really nice if someone can give me a step for step instruction

Greetings from switzerland

MrToastbrot
[HTC Incredible S] poondog:
1. the flashable zip contains an init.d script. Try using script manager to navigate to /system/etc/init.d and set it to run as root and at boot

2. VDD is for undervolting. I like to use incredicontrol for UV, its really easy, download from play store

3. You can download the andrev daemon here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1222020

Download the app and use it to install the daemon, its controllable from there

If it doesn't stick, let us know because there is a fix for that :)
[HTC Incredible S] MrToastbrot:
Do i need to use SetCPU and/or incredicontrol even if i use andrev_oc and the demon controller?
[HTC Incredible S] poondog:
If you use daemon controller, uninstall setcpu because they will conflict each other

Only use daemon controller for CPU

And use Incredicontrol for voltage

So uninstall setcpu but have both incredicontrol and daemon controller :)
[HTC Incredible S] MrToastbrot:
Now i'm using andrev and daemon controller. I can set there the voltage too, so do i need incredicontrol?

Is there any way to set the cpu scheduler?
[HTC Incredible S] poondog:
If you can set voltages using the daemon controller app, you can uninstall incredicontrol too

It just doesn't stick for me using daemon controller, might be different for you

[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sciurius:
Archos 101 IT + UrukDroid 1.6.4

When the tablet is off (sleeping), my local DHCP server gets DHCP requests from the tablet every minute. The power led briefly lits when it wakes up.

When I switch the tablet on, the first thing it does is drop the WiFi connection and re-establishes it.

This seems higly illogical. Also, when I have networking applications running when I switch the tablet off, these apps crash or malfunction when I switch it on again.

Did I overlook a specific setting to avoid this?
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jfmcbrayer:
I think that when you turn it on, the WiFi connection has already been dropped, but the indicator hasn't been updated yet. It then notices that the connection is down, updates the indicator, and re-connects. I'm not sure about the DHCP requests every minute. You can check in the System Monitor's Alarms tab what's waking your device that often; my guess is that the system figures it'll try to reconnect now that it's woken up, but it doesn't stay awake long enough to establish a useful connection.

I don't think there's really anything you can do to avoid this in general; it's just the way Android power management works. What you can do if you really want is to install an application that will hold a partial wake lock for you. As long as the wake lock is held, the device will never completely go to sleep; the screen will turn off (for a partial wake lock), but the network connection won't be dropped. Of course, this will consume much more power than letting your device sleep normally. I use this when I know I'm going to be intermittently using my tablet for a while (like when I'm cooking) and don't want to keep waiting for the network connection to come back up.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sciurius:
That could very well be the case.

Whenever I switch it on, there's always an alarm scheduled for Android System for the next minute.

I had been running liquidsmooth rom. There were issues when it booted up, would always boot twice then went into the system ok. I decided that I'd rather have a more stable rom on my phone, so I went into ez recovery and tried to flash back into cwm 6 recovery. When it came up, the restore backup option was not there, and I couldn't boot back into the rom. I tried several times, but to no avail

Since then I have tried Odin on the phone, and have gone through the soft brick recovery steps that I had to do one time before. I flashed both files and the stock file for the third step. I do get the error messages that I normally would where normally I would factory reset and clear cache, however I then get two more.

e: failed to verify whole-file signature

E: signature verification failed

Instalation aborted.

I cannot get beyond that, I do the wipe and reset each time, however when I reboot I just get funneled back to the same error message. I've scoured the forums and the internet but cannot find a solution to my problem. Am I SOL, or is there a solution I haven't found yet?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 95talondsm:
What you could do is on your computer, download a synergy ROM like 1.5 1.6 1.7 since those don't require an unlocked boot loader. Connect your phone via USB (I don't know if it will register in the state its in) or you can get a micro SD card reader and pop that into your computer, and transfer the synergyrom on your SD card and pop it back into your phone..get to your custom recovery wipe data/factory reset wipe cache and dalvik cache. Then install .zip from SD card and choose the synergyrom. From there it'll take a bit for your phone to boot up, but you should be up and running and then you can do what you want. I usually keep one ROM like this on my phone so if something doesn't work out I can start over. Let me know if you need more help, I'll try my best to see what I can do from work.

I actually had that on my sd card from last night when I was messing with it trying to fix it. I did try that and this is what I get

--Install /sdcard...

Finding update package...

E:signature verification failed <in red type>

Thanks for your suggestion, Part of the problem could be I'm not getting the traditional cwm loader, every time it starts it comes up in tiny type at the top: Recovery Booting.... dont know if that makes a difference or not?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] droidstyle:
signature verification error means your booting into stock recovery instead of cwm recovery...thats why there is no back up/ restore option.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] udrunner:
I can't get it to do anything other than that. I've held the up and home button to try to get elsewhere, but it always goes to that. The only other thing I can do is get to the Odin download screens, but even then, after flashing it boots back to the same place with the above errors.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] droidstyle:
wipe data/factory reset then reboot from stock recovery. use my guide for proper instructions on flashing back to stock. research then flash, dont flash then research.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 1ManWolfePack:
And Liquid is supposed to boot twice. It's kexec.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] buhohitr:
Why don't you Odin back CWM recovery, boot into cwm recovery and use this to toggle secure signature off and flash synergy rom?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] droidstyle:
because it trips the flash counter when you odin anything custom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] buhohitr:
Gotcha! I forgot about the flash counter. Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] droidstyle:
no problem...really its not a huge deal as the app triangle away can reset it, but i prefer to just use odin for stock purposes only.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] udrunner:
I had actually followed those steps already, but still get the recovery booting problem and can't seem to get past that. I can try it again after work, but have done those steps at least 3 or 4 times to no different results.

Thanks for the help though. I'll keep trucking on, just missing my phone today....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] udrunner:
year voldsou

I'm willing to try it if it might help me get back, I just dont want to do anything that will mess it up anymore than I already have.

At this point I just want to get back to stock /synergy if I can and be happy with it. I've never had issues like this when rooting/flashing on other phones that I've had, but at this point will just be happy with a useable phone.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] buhohitr:
As droidstyle mentioned that when the flash counter tripped, it won't allow you to re odin cwm. My question is can you Odin back cwm (clockmod recovery) and boot directly to it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] newuser134:
Then why is it that flashing a rooted "stock" /system partition, which is technically custom, through Odin, doesn't trip the flash counter?

Is there any other downside to tripping the flash counter besides having to use triangle away to reset it if you ever want to return your phone?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] udrunner:
No, I ran home on lunch and tried, and it wont let me do that. Odin wont flash it and I just get a FAIL, and the phone say security check fail.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] udrunner:
I After trying a few differnt times with a couple versions of the stock rom I found, I got it back up and running.

As much as I love custom roms, I think I'm done playing with this phone. Thanks everyone for the help.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sure haven't:
I'm coming from a Windows Phone, and the great thing about it was it synced all my contacts to my main hotmail. Phone numbers, everything. I'm not interested in moving to GMail, Hotmail has always done it for me and that's that.

So as I'm completely 100% new to Android. My question:

Can I sync my hotmail contacts to the S3? As in, will they show up with their numbers and all? And is there a way to keep it syncing? Will changes made to either the phone or Hotmail reflect?

Many thanks guys, and looking forward to getting this beast of a device!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LosD:
Seems like you can, search for Hotmail on Google Play (As a new user, I'm barred from linking).
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sure haven't:
Cool thanks man. I'll Google it. I want to make sure I can before I pull the trigger.

--edit--

A ha, and it looks like we have a possibility.

Official Hotmail app

It says it syncs contacts, but does anyone know if that's just for the email app, or for your phone's contacts???
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dantheman122:
Yeah when I add a Hotmail account using the built in email client it asks if I want to sync contacts, I usually don't since I use Gmail. I just tried it and it showed one person with a phone number which could be right, but honestly don't know if the number is from Hotmail or something else.

However, you'll have to have a Gmail account to use Play Store etc, and it works really well for new devices/resetting etc, just put in your Gmail and you can restore everything on first boot.

If I was you I'd strongly consider swapping to Gmail, just my thoughts.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sure haven't:
Thanks for the help, man.

Well I've had the same Hotmail for like a decade, and just had to switch it actually to Microsoft's new dumbass "@outlook.com" thing. There are so many people who have it, and I like their SkyDrive. All personal taste and all that.

At any rate, I do have a gmail address, and will be using it for Play. But not as my email. Which I do understand is a pain, and a purposeful handicap on my part.

From what you described, it does seem like it imported a number into your phone's contacts. Seems hopeful.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dantheman122:
Yeah I just opened the contact and removed the Google account part from it and it still showed a number and I checked my Hotmail on computer and it listed the number, so it seems like it should work, but I'm still not 100% sure. Hopefully someone here might use it like that and will have a better idea.

Yeah I still use Hotmail for my emails, just Gmail for everything else haha.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattBooth:
Yep, you can :) I have Facebook,. Google+, Twitter and Hotmail all synced up to my contacts :)

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dodgebizkit:
Yes you can, it was a pain to do at first as you have to configure your hotmail sing m.hotmail.com or something as far as I remember, you'll find on google what to do anyway... I, like you, came from windows phone and I do miss that amazing system but the s3 is sick :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jutler123:
dont know if you also know that you can if you want also use activesync to connect hotmail to the built in email app, thats how i use it and it works a treat for me

for your users name its "\xxxxxxx@hotmail.com" and for server use m.hotmail.com
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OXINARF:
It already has been mentioned that you have an Hotmail app and you can also configure an Exchange account. For what you want, you should go for Exchange account, because the app imports your contacts but it doesn't allow to edit them (I don't remember if you can add a new one, but I think you can't); with Exchange you can edit and add contacts, but you only get the first calendar (Hotmail app can sync all calendars). Since you haven't mentioned calendar I guess it's not important.
[Nook Color General] kfxdadev:
A black screen on boot (or just the backlight coming on, but no animation) is sometimes caused by mismatched kernel and vendor graphics driver-related blobs, assuming you are building your own kernel. Here's how to check (I'm putting this here because I'm not yet allowed to post in the dev thread):

Assuming your source is in ~/android/system :

1) Determine the vendor blob version:

cd ~/android/system/vendor/bn/encore/proprietary/lib/egl

strings lib* | grep build;

You should see something like : OpeGL ES 2.0 build 1.8@789263

2) Now determine the version the kernel expects:

cd ~/android/system/kernel/bn/encore/drivers/gpu/pvr

grep PVRVERSION_BUILD pvrversion.h

You should see something like : #define PVRVERSION_BUILD 789263

If you see a number other than 789263, your vendor blobs do not match the kernel you are using.

In my case, this was caused by me extracting the blobs from my Nook when it was running CM7,

and trying to use them to build CM10.

Check eyeballer's github to get the right vendor blobs.

Hope this helps someone (thanks would be appreciated :)). I got this info with the help of Steven676, Krylon360 and others.

Hi all

I have had my Galaxy S II for about a year now, and i am thinking about rooting it and installing Cyanogenmod on it, but i need some info about the proccess: First of all: What happens when you root your phone? Is you data/apps deleted or is it safe?

Second: What about when i flash Cyanogenmod? Is my data/apps safe there or do i need to redownload the apps and backup my stuff?

Third: If i root my phone and do not flash a new ROM, will it be just as hard for me to update the firmware as on a jailbroken iOS device?

And lastly: I have heard about Titanium Backup, what does it backup? The OS, the apps and/or the data? These are the questions i need answered before starting the rooting proccess :)

Thanks in advance

/gammarik
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] devwithzachary:
The process is a little different depending on the device but basicly a super user binary and SU app are installed on your device, this will not (in most cases) effect your data or apps.

When you flash a new ROM like cyanogenmod you will loss your data and apps yes so you will need to redownload/reinstall them backing up using a app like titanium backup is recommended.

In most cases if you root your phone it will not be any harder to update the firmware however after the update you will loss root, and often the hacks used to install SU and a custom recovery get fixed in newer updates, so its normally recommend not to update through the official process but to flash a modified version of the update normally found in the XDA forum for the device, these modified versions will have super user etc preinstalled so they cant be lost during the update.

Titanium Backup backs up your apps and there data (so when you reinstalled them with Titanium Backup it will be just how you left it)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gammarik:
Okay, Thanks for the info! :) I have one more question: What happens when i update my ROM with eg. ROM Manager? Will i need to restore from Titanium Backup there too?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] devwithzachary:
if your upgrading the same ROM to a newer version for example if you where on CM9 version 1.0 and updated to 1.1 you will likely not have to no, however the developer will post if the update requires a wipe, as some large updates do need a clean install.

If your going from one ROM to another than you will need to wipe yes
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gammarik:
Okay Great! Thank you for helping me out :) I'll think this through and see if i'll root it :) Thanks again!
