[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yeahman45:
i have experienced an issue lately on the JB rom. Sometimes, i can't wake up my phone. the screen remains black.. i press all buttons and it still can't wake up.. i tried making a call from my home phone to my htc desire, there's a dial tone but my htc desire does not vibrate or ring..no response.. anyone got this problem? i got it a few times now.. have to perform a hard reset each time
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Parastie:
Yeah this is an issue. I stopped using this rom because it was doing it nearly every time someone called me. Unfortunately, Qiss is no longer working on their ROM so I don't think anyone can really be much help.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yeahman45:
I installed the mounts2sd found on market instead and phone feels faster now ... will try to see if this one is more stable
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yeahman45:
still getting the black screen no response issue... i think i will switch back to ICS..magge3, can you please post how u installed m2sd on the ICS version thx

---------- Post added at 05:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:45 PM ----------

or does someone know a JB rom as stable as Qiss rom? with working camcorder and camera?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rete:
The Qiss roms are not stable. They lag and frequently freeze up. I tried both ICS and JB versions on my wife's Desire and with multiple daily bsods they are unusable. The only thing Qiss has going for it is 720p video decoding and fully functioning camera.

The most stable JB Rom I've tried is VJ's CM10 (12/19 version). Been running it since 12/19 and its rock solid...not a single freeze or reboot. It's fast too, and with ADW launcher very smooth. I fixed the YouTube flickering by swapping libs from Tytung's NexusHD2 JellyBean Rom (in the HD2 forum).

Since Tytung has managed to produce a JellyBean kernel for HD2 that supports 720p decoding and with functioning camera I expect it is just a matter of time before Desire and Nexus One gets it. These 3 devices are basically identical after all...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yeahman45:
the JB qiss rom was pretty solid and stable in the beginning.. i am getting the BSODS only lately (after nearly 2 months of use)

i hope the developers port Tytung's work on the HD2... the HD2 dev is more active than our old htc desire dev community :( lol

I had to flash the init.d.loader.v.0.8.zip manually, i. e : extract the files manually ; from the top of my head debuggerd goes in /system/bin

and the init.d.loader goes in /system/etc

Then i installed m2sd (aroma version, older one). However the phone got very unresponivse after installing 50+ apps.

If anything is unclear email me i PM you my adress.

Hey guys I need some help on what the procedure is before flashing a ROM to this phone. I have had other phones in the past that I have put ROMs on. Most of these phones have threads that have what you need to do before you can flash a ROM. However, I cannot seem to find one for this phone. So with your help I would like to make one for this phone. I just need to know what is need and the options are for it. I can then compile all of the info and make it look pretty for any one else looking for this information and hopefully have it sticky-ed.

Thanks for the help guys.
[Bravo General] raul1113:
Hi.

First root using SuperOneclick

Allow install unknown sources in your phone

Install Defy 2init

That's it, you're ready to install any rom you want.

All this apps can be found easily here.

Hope it helps.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sharonbw:
As a noob I'm realizing I might have gotten pretty lucky. I've never rooted a phone (and probably won't - can't live without it if it bricks!) but I successfully rooted my Kindle on the first try and have been fooling around with various ROMs and have had only seemingly trivial issues. I started with Android Open Kang Project - otter - milestone 6. I can't even remember now the particulars of what I didn't like about it but I quickly switched to CM10 Jelly Bean with SG17 enhancements [linaro]. I liked it but had some instability with 20120916 so installed 20120920 which has been more stable for me so far. I also installed the UNOFFICIAL CM10 +3.x kernel for kindle fire but switched back alley because it didn't have a tablet UI (so odd since it's a build specifically for the kindle - did I overlook the setting???]

So my questions are:

How lucky have I been? Should I look for an older totally stable ROM and stick with it or even go back to stock?

If I do decide to continue experimenting what level of risk is it really to look for the ROM that I like - e.g. tablet UI, pretty basic, quick - vs looking solely for something rock solid.

Finally, what advice for a noob on what to look for and how to test various ROMs and any thoughts on your favorite for the Fire and why.

BTW, I also tried eye candy and did not care for it. In fact I'm irritated that my twrp was sort of hijacked with an eye candy mod and I can't figure out how to get it off. Have not loaded jandycane but want to because I can. Pushing that luck?

I wanted to edit typos and add that use GO Launcher EX so the launcher features of the ROM are irrelevant. Don't see an edit option...
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
Running custom roms are not for everyone. They normally come with some needed trouble shooting. As long as you do your needed research before hand you will be fine but there is always a risk when rewritting the OS on any device. Be it cellphone, tablet or PC.

No one will be able to tell you what is the best for your device. Its a flash and test yourself type of thing
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gadgetroid:
Rooting and installing ROMs may not be everyone's forte, but there is nothing to fear if you've done every step correctly. Many of these CM builds are nightly builds; that is they release one every short interval of time fixing small bugs encountered in the previous release. If you really want to enjoy CM, you could go for the latest stable build.

To your first question: Yeah, switch back to an older ROM. That's generally more stable and you have the whole thread to sort through if you get into some tough spot. You've been pretty lucky to have gotten so far without bricking your device, I must say. I don't recommend reverting back to stock; you'd miss a lot of the features that aren't there on the KF.

To your second one: that's totally up to you. I confess, I don't own a KF, but with the phones I've had, I've always been experimenting with them. My old Moto Razr, my Moto Ming, my Nokia 5800, my Nokia N8...the list goes on. Changing ROMs, it's kind of like an hobby of mine.

You could lean towards a better UI( I really like the one on stock KF though) or a rock solid feature rich performance ROM. It's up to you.

As to your third question: I can't really answer that sorry. I'm a Galaxy Tab user, so I don't know much about KFs. As to testing ROMs, well, you said it. Test them. There's no other way to know if you're going to like them or not otherwise.

Yes, install Jandycane. It's not pushing your luck. There's no room for error unless you're so excited that you even make silly mistakes.

You can modify posts by tapping on it, selecting Modify, then edit.

Hope I helped you some. :)

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dumber89:
It's not luck if u spent time reading n following the rooting tutorial, it's ur work, though small compared to developers. I'm exactly like u, 1st time ever use an android device, but with experience with my Nokia5800, it's easier for me to solve problems, not to panic when rooting a device .

For me, keep rooting different Roms until the most suitable for personal use is enough. As time passes, I feel tired of doing the setting again after installing every new Rom. I stick with twa 's Linaro 'til now.

I think the risk of experimenting new Rom is small because the device memory is very hard to malfunction. As long as ur PC and KF is there, u don't have to worry.

There's still a lot to learn abt android, not only rooting, I think. Right now I'm learning about OTG and how to use external devices with KF, like flash drive or microphone.

All credits and thanks to our developers such as hashcode and twa.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sharonbw:
Thanks for the replies. I did go ahead and play around wiping and installing new ROMs starting with going back to stock all the way through pretty much the same sequence I did before with the same result LOL! I ended right back here with tw_priv's CM10. I like it very much and other than some random burps and glitches I've experienced - things others have also seen (Facebook - keyboard not opening; sleep of death - multiple times; WWF is totally messed up but that might be 100% zynga), its been pretty darn stable.

My biggest issue is that my battery life sucks! Anyone want to advise me on how to analyze/improve that?

I love reading here and learning but I'll never be a dev or even a power user. Do the dev of custom ROMs even want people like me to use them? This site is definitely not user friendly ha ha
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gadgetroid:
That's what you get for a $200 tablet sorry. You could look around your device forum asking for prop.build tweak that optimize battery life.

You'll understand all the big dev terms sooner or later. Its just a matter of time.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] x10knight:
I know this is off topic, I'm sorry. But I don't see any risk with rewriting the OS of a PC versus a Phone. A Phone has a rom chip that is fairly easy to break. By unplugging the device during rooting, for example. But on a PC, if something goes wrong, you can always stick the disc in and try again.

On topic, with custom roms you will always run into stability issues. However, if you do not care about the latest and greatest, try a rom based on CM7. They are stable (in use for years on different devices)
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
There are many things that could go wrong when rewritting the OS on your PC that could make that not an option.

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sharonbw:
My battery life (which wasn't terrible "cheap" tablet or not - this is the kindle fire forum, right?) got worse after I rooted it and flashed custom ROM. I had hoped it would get better since that seems to be something all the devs are after. I was hoping someone could point out settings I may not have adjusted correctly after installing. Or would that be too easy?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gadgetroid:
Yes, it is the KF forum. You could try underclocking the device. That way, less CPU and more battery. :) If you could point out your current ROM, I'll take a deeper look and help you out. :)
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sharonbw:
I appreciate the offer! This is the first rooted device I've had. I don't really know what underclocking is but would like to learn. I'm using twa_priv's ROM 20120923 (I think - maybe 25)
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aesrys:
CM9 and CM10 roms (the one you are using is CM10) tend to have worse battery life than other ROMs. It's kind of a trade-off, worse battery for more functionality. If you want really great battery life, you could use one of the old CM7 roms. They'll likely have the best overall battery life, but won't be quite as fancy/snappy as the newer ROMs would be.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gadgetroid:
Yes, that's true.

@OP underclocking means that you simply set the CPU to operate at a give frequency. It doesn't go more than that. My Android tablet has an Intel Core i3-350M 2.26 GHz processor. Average battery life is around an hour; but then when I underclock it to 800MHz, I get close to five hours. :)
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sharonbw:
I have some issues w/ sleep of death. I saw a post that suggested doubling minimum CPU frequency. Is that underclocking or overclocking or neither??

Clock data: min 300 Max 1200 current 300

CPU - whatever comes in the kindle fire. :8
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gadgetroid:
You're at 300 MHz? Wow! That's way too slow! I even wonder how you get most of the jobs done. You're underclocking the device. If you're having Sleep of death issues, then increase the frequency to about 600 MHz. That should take care of it. Also, that won't eat up much battery, so you should be safe. But, as suggested, you should switch to older CM7 ROMs as they have excellent battery backup.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sharonbw:
[Q] Why would it be set that low in the first place? What is "normal"? Also is the type of CPU governor significant? Mine is defaulted to interactive.

I'll try upping frequency and see how it does. My battery life is OK - just not as good as it was pre-root/custom. I love my CM10 ROM so I will probably just live with it. :) (twa_priv's)
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gadgetroid:
The KF on stock ROM operates between 400-800 MHz. It is set that low on all Custom ROMs, whatever the device may be (That is, if they have their own kernel). There is no normal frequency. It's like a car. You go in third gear or fourth gear as you wish. There are no steadfast rules that you have to go in fourth gear on a road and the fifth in another. CPU governors are how you set the frequencies. I don't know what you get on the KF, but on the other devices that I have tried, "Blackcats" is the one for day-day usage. Not too much, not too less.

Yes, that's the thing about having a fancy ROM. I have a completely transparent ROM on my Galaxy Y and sometimes, the thing goes bonkers. Since my phone doesn't have CM yet, these fancy transparent ROMs are the best bet for a flashy and beautiful ROM. On stock, I get around 1-2 days, but on these transparent ROMs, I get like 5-6 hours a day. Not too bad, considering that my completely transparent W7 laptop only stays for an hour on battery.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aesrys:
I honestly don't think your SOD (sleep of death) is due to the 300 Min frequency. I've had that set on any recent KF rom I've used without a problem (as mentioned previously, it tends to be the default value, with max being 1000 or 1200 (don't remember the exact value). It's more likely that something you have installed, or some setting that has been changed, is causing the problem.

One way to find out would be to do a complete wipe of the system in TWRP (factory reset, system, cache, and dalvik) and install whatever ROM you're interested in fresh (don't forget to install gapps too) and then see if you continue to have the SOD problems. Stick with stock settings for a while and see if something happens. Just my two cents of course.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sharonbw:
It's too early to know for sure but no SoD since I upped it. I've done clean several installs and i've had it since the first iteration using twa_priv's CM10. I'm currently running 20120923.

I'm still a little unclear on what clocking is but I guess that's a deficit in my knowledge of physics. ;)

UPDATE: Well came back to my kindle after watching tv and it was in the SoD. Force power off and reboot and I'm back in business. I'll leave the clock speed at min 300 since I didn't notice any difference. :)

I'm going to do a search but anyone want to give me a link to a 'how to' for doing a logcat? (Is that even the right term? ) I don't know that the developers want to hear from me but I could at least post the log when I experience SoD.

Edit: nevermind. I found how to logcat. :)
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ixthusdan:
Clocking refers to clock cycles of the CPU. The higher the clock cycles, the faster the CPU can process instruction sets. All CPUs have an ideal range of clock cycles. That is, there is a point in seed where the CPU makes errors in the instructions. The low end just sacrifices speed, but does not create errors.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gadgetroid:
Yes, that's true. Low-end sacrifices on speed, but does not give you errors. Anyway, SODs have always been due to improper system files, like on the Windows computers. They usually get fixed on the next nightly build. The stable builds won't have SOD issues, so you may want to try that. Oh yeah, you won't notice any difference, only you multi-tasking would suffer. My GT-S5630 always has issues with multi-tasking on 300.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jm-dev:
I recently took the dive and installed the Helly Bean build from the 23rd onto my Vibrant, and this thing rocks. I am amazed at how smooth the hardware runs with this new CM10 based build. It has run so well that I've decided not to bother with getting a new phone, just need to get a new battery. :)

That being said, I've been trying to push my old battery as far as it can go. As such I have tried two things that so far are not working:

1) I wanted to enable Deep Idle. After doing so, I've found that often when I turn off the screen, it will not come back. Only a long hold on the power button or battery removal will bring back the phone, albeit in a rebooted state.

2) Each time I select the lowest CPU frequency to be 100mhz, it gets reset back to 200mhz.

Any help / pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jm-dev:
It looks like the default 100mhz and 200mhz mV settings were 950. I read in another thread its not recommended to go below 1000mV. Now the phone is not freezing when turning off the screen, but at the same time the idle stats aren't showing any deep sleep. Is there a way to check why the deep idle may not be occuring? Without this I can't be sure raising the mV setting will is a fix. :)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ToStymiedBoar:
Good question. I've had almost the same experience and would like to know also.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iKoolkid:
You cannot set 100mhz on the kernel anyway, and deep idle causes the sleep of death, I recomment not to go that low cause it can be slower at times.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jm-dev:
lol, that's a good name for it! So I'll take it this is a known issue? If so, is this specific to this kernel? Or is it a known issue with the vibrant in general?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iKoolkid:
Sleep of death is a known issue, on kernel however it is only known when in deep idle.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jm-dev:
Darn. Well I only got 9 hours out of my battery today, but the battery is from june 2010 so I don't blame the build or the kernel. This battery is so used up I haven't had good battery life for months, even with the original stock firmware.

I was curious to see if I can get even more hours before buying a new battery with the deep idle but if no one has had it working then I guess its not reliable. Perhaps thats why these phones didn't have it enabled in the first place. At any rate, I'll be ordering a new battery soon.

Thanks for the help! If anyone has more to add feel free to, I'm all ears! :)

I am with you Bobo.. same settings. I have ondemand governor but no other changes.

I too reach top=on and not top=off..

Its my understanding that in order to reach top=off the Bluetooth has to be killed and wifi killed. Never messed with it really. Your reaching Deep Sleep IMO, just not the Deepest sleep possible.. If that makes sense.

Not sure if top=off is possible yet. May not be achievable until kernel progresses a little more.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FaultException:
The problem where you can't set 100mHz is due to the way the system locks the minimum frequency while the gpu is active because of something with the bus speed changing when below 200. This ideally should override, but not change, the minimum frequency set by the user.

This was fixed by mkasick by using a dvfs lock in the epicmtd kernel. We've merged that change into the stock kernel so hopefully that's fixed now in stock.
