I have no way of testing this because I am on a Mac (if anyone has any tips on how to boot Linux from USB on Mountain Lion, I would greatly appreciate it). But I have been assured that it does in fact boot normally on a PC w/LiveUSB. That being said, I need people to test this out for me. I need to know what works, what doesn't, what you like, what you don't like, stability, persistence, yada yada yada, etc. etc. etc. It will have SoupKit preinstalled (and hopefully working) so just start fastboot/ADBing away. I also need to know what ROM/ROMs you tested it with and what state your device was in at the time {i.e. fastboot/normal mode, bricked (details), working properly, or all of the above}. Basically, whatever you could think of that might be useful, let me know...here preferably.

*REQUIREMENTS*

PC (obviously)

USB flash drive (test the smallest you have, > 2GB; if there isn't enough room try a larger one)

LiveUSB setup software (I need testing from each of them)

Kindle Fire + USB-a/USB micro-b cable

Basic knowledge of fastboot and adb commands

Right now we only have kubuntu stable w/700mb persistence, but I will release more as they are finished and I have more information.

These are the instructions that have been given to me for installing this using PendriveUUI. The other utilities you'll have to figure out, but I'd like to know if they are much different.

Thanks in advance (plus a thanks button) to anyone who wants to help test these out.

*Download*

[Kindle Fire General] JimCo06:
I am using a Windows 7 pc and followed your instructions using the Pendrive installer. It took a long time to download your Kubuntu iso (14 min, and I have a pretty fast cable isp). The installation worked perfectly but it also took a long time to complete as did booting from the pendrive (don't know if that was because it was the first time it booted or not).

I tested it on 2 Kindles, 1 pure stock and the other using the latest version (20120905) of twa_priv's Jelly Bean ROM with the latest versions of TWRP and FFF.

On the modified Kindle it worked perfectly. Every command I used, adb or fastboot, worked.

I know that all commands won't work on a stock Kindle because it isn't rooted but I was only able to get a couple of commands to work.

On Stock only these commands worked

adb devices - worked

All other adb commands returned a permissions error which, based upon what I have read, is normal.

I used a factory cable to get into fastboot since the adb commands wouldn't work.

fastboot -i 0x1949 getvar product - worked.

However I was not able to get any other fastboot commands to work. If I used the -i 0x1949 switch I mostly got syntax errors and if I didn't use the switch it would hang on "waiting for device". Rebooting did no good.

FYI, I also used your soupkit program to setup Ubuntu on my pc after I set it up to dual boot a couple of weeks ago. I got the same results using that Ubuntu setup.
[Kindle Fire General] Thepooch:
interesting I did both stock and twa_priv`s jelly bean and adb and fastboot worked like a charm... or I guess I should say modified stock as in modaco
[Kindle Fire General] soupmagnet:
He's talking about un-rooted stock...it's normal.
[Kindle Fire General] Thepooch:
yes unrooted stock I couldnt test
[Kindle Fire General] Thepooch:
more people willing to test is needed...

[HTC One X] razer1224:
which best I/O scheduler and governor for baterry life and gaming
[HTC One X] ShyamSasi:
IMO Noop is best I/O scheduler since there is not much tweaking needed.

Advantages:

Serves I/O requests with least number of cpu cycles. (Battery friendly?)

Best for flash drives since there is no seeking penalty.

Good throughput on db systems

.

Disadvantages:

Reduction in number of cpu cycles used is proportional to drop in performance

.

But SIO is best optimized for most environments.

As for governor I think Interactive is good but our case OnDemand is tweaked the most and best for games (SmartassV2 is my personal favorite but it's not used by our kernel developers).

A little about OnDemand Governor:

Default governor in almost all stock kernels. One main goal of the ondemand governor is to switch to max frequency as soon as there is a CPU activity detected to ensure the responsiveness of the system. (You can change this behavior using smooth scaling parameters, refer Siyah tweaks at the end of 3rd post.) Effectively, it uses the CPU busy time as the answer to "how critical is performance right now" question. So Ondemand jumps to maximum frequency when CPU is busy and decreases the frequency gradually when CPU is less loaded/apporaching idle. Even though many of us consider this a reliable governor, it falls short on battery saving and performance on default settings. One potential reason for ondemand governor being not very power efficient is that the governor decide the next target frequency by instant requirement during sampling interval. The instant requirement can response quickly to workload change, but it does not usually reflect workload real CPU usage requirement in a small longer time and it possibly causes frequently change between highest and lowest frequency.

But it's all up to the kernel developers which governor or I/O scheduler he wish to tweak and modify to bring the best results.

I was on vacation for a week and where I stayed they charged for WiFi so I used wireless tether for my xbox to watch netflix and play live...what's the most data some other people have used in a week?
[HTC EVO 3D] chrisduclo:
It wasn't until I reached 80gb until I received a call to watch my usage. They do know what you used it for. It is unlimited but if you ho overboard by tethering it they will cancel your service. I had many 25 gb months with no call from customer service. You should be fine.
[HTC EVO 3D] sitlet:
I wish I could use that much data. I get about 50kbps dial-up speeds here on 3g, so I can never stream any music/video like I should be able to.

lol, nice, but yea, don't over do it man, most i did was 8gb, but i was doing it on purpose though, i never normally go over 2-3, but yea, it was a one time thing for you which is what i really feel like tethering should be used for, for the ones that abuse it SHAME!!!

I couldn't rack up that much data in a month if I tried, the sprint 3G speeds here suck and they took out the wimax tower when they did the LTE upgrade last month so now I don't even get wimax when I am at work.

They shouldn't have taken out the WiMax equipment just yet. I thought they were supposed to run both until they begin phasing out WiMax all together? You should check with them and find out what's up with that. LTE is replacing WiMax, but over time, not immediately. This video kinda explains it in a way, but not very detailed.

Hi,

I am from India and a newbie to Android world.

I have a LG stock ROM(optimus 2x p990 Gingerbread). The factory version of the ROM is LGP990AT-00-V20e-ESA-XXX-OCT-28-2011.

The baseband is 1035.21_20110725

After taking a backup of image of Stock ROM with CWM,I have installed Gueste 2x v3.6 Hybrid Revolution, with symbiosis kernel.I have found it to be stable with good GUI

I have observed a heavy battery drain, with RIL v10d(Europe)

I am planning to flash 218 baseband as suggested by stefan.

But before doing so, I want to clear my doubts and have few requests

1) what are the best settings for a good battery life? I am switching to 2g networks when not surfing/downloading.

I am also using lots of apps, for my kid, who uses my mobile for a hour or so.

2)In case I need to go to Stock LG ROM, where can I get the original baseband, as I do not find it it anywhere, so as to to restore the CWM backup.

3) Stefan- Your ROM is wonderful. I have got few requests.Can you please port the stock LG Messaging app, Contacts app & "Backup & Restore" app .

Thanks
[LG Optimus 2x] sspunkky:
I am also from India.

I am using 0725 Baseband with v20d(Asia) RIL.

I dont have any battery problems whatsoever on this baseband and RIL combo. I get a straight 1 and half day on moderate usage (Few call and texting, 2g browsing for an hour or so, some music listening)

Battery drain wont be always due to baseband. It may also depend on some of the Apps you use which run in background.

Check the battery usage from the settings and see which program is using most of your battery.

Press "THANKS" if this helped.

I am sure that the battery drain was due to wrong bb (725) and RIL(v10d Europe).

As I am unable to get the LGP990AT-00-V20e-ESA-XXX-OCT-28 version of KDZ, I had posted the mail here, hoping that some one may help me.

Anyway this is not required now.

Also since this was my first post, I couldn't thank Stefan for his superb ROM( Gueste 2x v3.6 Hybrid Revolution )

found at the link

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1464986

Also I do a search properly, hoping to find a solution. Hence till date for the past one month, I was able to flash CWM, 5 different ROMs and come to a satisfactory solution for the issues faced.

Excepting for some rookies, I found the forum quite helpful, for sorting out all kinds of problems

To my understanding the I897 and I896 can take the same roms but I don't own an 896 so I don't know whether this is true. As far the the Slim Rom you are looking at it only has the 897 version so you would be flashing at your own risk.

[Q] "secure check fail" when trying to restore stock image w/ Odin (AT&T)

I bought an AT&T Galaxy S III today, and was pretty unsuccessful in rooting it -- mostly due to the fact that every time I tried to boot into "recovery", I would only get a flash of it before a blank screen. I tried several guides and, until a little while ago, I was at least still able to boot normally and use the phone. Now, not only can I not get into recovery mode, if I try to boot normally I only get a flash of the "Samsung" screen before it goes black and nothing else happens. The only mode that I can boot into is Download mode.

At this point, I just want to get back to a working stock ROM. I followed a guide from "galaxys3root"'s website (I can't post links because I'm a new user) because it was the only one that linked to what looked like a full stock image instead of some 10 mb file, but I got an error in Download mode that said, "SECURE CHECK FAIL: aboot." I've only been able to find one other thread that features that error, and it seems to be archived.

Am I screwed, or is there any way I can get back to a working ROM? Has anyone else worked through this same problem?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] j4bora:
update: I've tried now with several different images (including a "May 2012" one and a "July 2012" one), and it's the same error message for each:

a red "secure check fail: aboot" on the phone, and a similar error in Odin:
