[HTC EVO 3D] Jsparta26:
Update: I figured out what was causing the force closings. Did some research and found out the weather sound effect mp3 files could have something to do with it. I froze weather sync and disabled the sound effects and it worked. No more force closes. However that means I cannot use the effects. It's not that big of a deal but I would like to have them. I also learned that these files are located in the htc resources apk. I would appreciate any help on how to fix that. Thank you in advance.:)
[HTC EVO 3D] et4g:
Go into root explorer and delete it if u can find it
[HTC EVO 3D] Jsparta26:
Thank you for the reply. It's like I said. They are located inside the htc resources apk. You couldn't just go inside the apk and delete these files like a regular file. I am also trying to get the sound effects to work again. All I know is that you would have to pull the apk from the Rom and place on your pc and use winar to help with decompiling the apk. However I do not know how to edit the files within to make them work again. If you know how to do it or point me in the direction of where to find out I would appreciate that. Thank you.

Easy fix. Get coolexe's junk off your phone and flash beneath a burning turtle's common sense.
[HTC EVO 3D] Jsparta26:
Looks like somebody's a hater. :rolleyes:
[HTC EVO 3D] xblackvalorx:
Ehhh. Not entirely accurate, but not entirely inaccurate at all.

I do feel common sense is a slightly better Rom. Feels a little faster, xloud and bravia is nice. That's speaking without the bias.
[HTC EVO 3D] Jsparta26:
Duly noted. I haven't tried common sense yet. I will try it out tomorrow to see how it is. I'm not saying your experience was biased. I just disagree with your harsh description of the cool sense Rom based off of the weather mp3 file bug. Other than that, the Rom runs perfectly. I was simply trying to learn how to fix an issue without running and complaing to coolexe about a bug he probably already knew about. It's cool I'm wasn't offended at all.
[HTC EVO 3D] xblackvalorx:
Lol. It was based on who made it. Not a single bug. XD and ya give common sense a try, it's one of the better sense 3.6 roms I've tried
[HTC EVO 3D] Jsparta26:
Update: Guess you was right. I have been running common sense for a few hours and its flawless with no bugs or glitches. Thanks for the tip. I'll be using this as my daily for awhile.:o
[HTC EVO 3D] xblackvalorx:
Glad I could help, even though it wasn't exactly by answering your question. Lol
[HTC EVO 3D] Jsparta26:
It's cool. It worked out better than I thought. I'm happy with this rom now. :o
[Asus Transformer TF700] DNO1978:
Hi all,

Firstly apologies if this is posted in the wrong place......

I think I might have messed up my Transformer infinity but hoping to see some light at the tunnel.

When I got my tablet I rooted it and unlocked the bootloader (wish I hadn't done that). All of that went fine and I got it all set-up perfectly. I then tried to use CWM to make a back-up of the ROM which didn't work. I read a little online and got the impression that CWM doesn't work as it does with most android devices and then read about being able to get to recovery mode (where I assumed I could make a back-up) using an app called Transformer Pad Recovery Tool so I ran this......BOOM!!!!

My Infinity will now not boot and I have the following....

Normal Boot

Sticks at the first Asus Logo with the white 'Device is Unlocked' text

Powering on with Power & Vol DOWN pressed.

Hangs on the Asus logo with.......

'Android cardu-user bootloader <2.10e> released by "US_epad-9.4.5.30-20120907" A03

Checking for android ota recovery

Booting recovery kernal image

but it doesn't do anything further

Powering on with Power & Vol UP pressed

Tablet goes black screen but windows picks it up as an APX device whereas before it wouldn't pick it up at all. I also have it listed in device manager as 'Asus Transformer TF700 APX interface'

I'm guessing that the APX connection is my only potential route to salvation but I don't know where to go from here. I can't seem access fastboot on the tablet itself and am I right in thinking I can't push anything to it through the PC without this?

- I've read about NVflash but apparently this only works if already on the device before it's KO'd? (I wish I'd have read this article before the recovery app one)

- I've also read somewhere that I can copy the stock blob file to an sd card and then reboot the tablet it will recover from there but it doesn't seem to work (I've tried it with both the blob & meta inf folder and with the zip file)

I'm really worried becuase I can't return it now and I may have messed up big time. I've been reading loads online but can't find a specific answer for my dilema and I'm trying to avoid experimenting too much in case I make things worse.

Can anyone help point me in the right direction?

Thanks
[Asus Transformer TF700] Pretoriano80:
I am sorry mate but it looks like your device it's stuck in the so called "recovery boot loop" and this happened mostly because you have used that app, wich btw was already known for causing bricks and you can find more than one thread warning about it. AFAIK there's no fix for that yet, at least not without NvFlash so it seems that the only way to fix it is sending the device to Asus and pay for the repairs (some users said they paid 250$ for this).
[Asus Transformer TF700] DNO1978:
ahh crap. Getting a warranty repair could be fun as well because I'm in the UK using a US model and they haven't even released here. Is it the sort of thing where a solution might come out in the near future or would that just be wishful thinking?

BTW - Edit: The app was called 'Transformer reboot to recovery so everyone steer clear of that as well :(
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
It's strange how that app works for some (I can use it without problem) and causes others to get in this "recovery bootloop"... I just don't understand that...

Man, it really sucks that you didn't install NVFlash.

So there is nothing that he can do even though APX mode is working? When I last read of this problem, I thought that the person couldn't even get APX mode working.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Pretoriano80:
Sadly the APX mode is useless for users without working NvFlash,so considering that OP is on .30 bootloader and didn't used the nvflash tool to backup the needed files, then for him Asus is the only solution, at least for now.
[Asus Transformer TF700] lafester:
cwm works fine on the infinity. my guess is you were using rom manager which does NOT work on the infinity.

there are several guides posted here to walk people through the recovery/backup process.

I would suggest reading through all of them to see if there is anything you can try.

did you even install cwm through fastboot before running these apps?
[Asus Transformer TF700] hshah:
Of course they have been released here... they were released around 3 weeks ago. :rolleyes:
[Asus Transformer TF700] DNO1978:
oops....of course. I remember seeing the gold ones for sale but not the Grey

Well I've submitted my return form now and will be waiting to take the hit from Asus. I'm sure it will be an expensive lesson to learn!!

"Kiddies to avoid bricking your brand new Asus Infinity in two seconds - Make sure you read EVERYTHING before doing ANYTHING!"

<walks away with his head down in shame> :crying:
[Asus Transformer TF700] rightonred:
Id hate to have to see you do that. Have you tried to flash something from recovery, or reinstall recovery from fastboot (e.g. fastboot flash staging twrp.blob), or reflashing the firmware?
[Asus Transformer TF700] DNO1978:
petavium

Yep, fastboot wont pick the device up attached to the computer. It just hangs at waiting for device. I decided just to send it off as I needed it fixed quick.....pretty sure a solution will turn up the day I get it back :)

At least it's a chance to test out the customer services in turning it around and how much they charge......
[Asus Transformer TF700] Ivanrc:
Did Asus repair your table? I have to repair mine because the same brick and I would know how much cost :fingers-crossed:
[Asus Transformer TF700] DNO1978:
They repaired it and they didn't charge me!
[Asus Transformer TF700] Ivanrc:
They reflashed your bootloader?

I hope to have your luck

Congrats! :good:

Ive flashed every modem. Best I get is 5-6 down and 1.5 up... my amaze clicks 10-12down and 2 up stovk with no flashing.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] psykhotic:
Wipe the phone and install stock everything, test speeds.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Try toggling airplane mode on/off then test again.

In build.prop try adjusting these values

ro.ril.hsxpa=3

ro.ril.gprsclass=12 (try also 32 and34)

Make sure there are no duplicates of these lines.

If they aren't there add them but make sure there is sn empty blank line at the end of the file.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] nlarge:
Dont know what those exactly do but they helped... 32 and 34 were worse than 12... im a consistant 9-10 down now.

Cool. Glad it helped.

Basically, They define the class and/or equipment being used for your data connection. There are more of these that csn be added, but it becomes a pretty tedious process testing it all.

Im going to be adding much more about this and more to my modem thread soon. So keep an eye on that. Also check out the map there. May be useful for finding the best modem for your area.

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harmani:
I'm trying to unlock my TF300T's bootloader, but no succes! :(

Asus' unlock tool just tells me to "please wait" for about 5 minutes and nothing happens. No reboot, nothing.

I also tried to run the tool after a full wipe.

Also downloaded "AsusInstaller.exe - Version V7 - 2012.05.22 update" which is mentioned under unlock tools in this topic but this only installs "Akamai NetSession Interface Console" and I have no clue what to do with that.

I really hope someone has a solution fast, going on holiday tonight :fingers-crossed:

[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
Goal: kickstart 3.x custom kernel development.

Changelog:

Built with Google's 4.6 toolchain (* see notes).

Merged Interactive from mainline and enabled input boost by default as part of Google's Project Butter. Interactive will be the only available governor as it's Jellybean's "official" governor and having more selection only slows down the kenel. Interactive will provide more smoothness, especially with input boost enabled, but it may be slightly more expense on the energy consumption (significantly? maybe).

The I/O scheduler is deadline with the fifo batch reduced to 1. For smartphones the best I/O schedulers are often the simpler ones and that means deadline, simple or noop. However, for these 2 years deadline keeps providing me the best results, at least in single-cores. Noop is also available. And yes, I know about the new BFQv4 and all the tweaks/heuristics for flash devices, it's still crap.

Switched the slab allocator to slub with a decreased max_slab_order (Andrea Righi) in order to reduce overhead.

Glibc versions for memcopy and memmove, improved CRC32 and RWSEM algorithms, Tiny Shmem implementation, etc.

Changed RCU to Tiny Preempt without RCU boost, some config cleanups and debug removal (like frame pointer) and so on.

... more changes can be seen in: https://github.com/knzy/lge-kernel-sniper/commits/android-omap3-3.0

A few notes: BCM4329's PM_FAST is already enabled by LGE. I also didn't merge many mainline updates as like it has already found out this often hurts performance and decreases stability. Furthermore, you may notice that there aren't many modifications to the kernel but this is because most patches out there are bull**** and rely on placebo effect. Even some changes I did will have a doubtful influence in the kernel. Oh, one more thing, it's possible to build it with Linaro 4.7 toolchain (it needs a few fixes in Makefile though) but it's less stable and not that much faster.

Download: There'll be no available flashable zips. Just build the kernel if you want and use Aprold's kernel injector package.

Now, any kernel posted in XDA must be GPL compliant which means sharing the source, the config file and the toolchain used. I will now shortly describe how you can build the kernel in a linux (ubuntu-based) machine (by the way,

if you see anyone sharing a kernel without providing source, config or toolchain, tell me and I'll report them

):

git clone git://github.com/knzy/lge-kernel-sniper.git ## default branch is omap3-3.0 already
git clone https://android.googlesource.com/platform/prebuilts/gcc/linux-x86/arm/arm-eabi-4.6 ## Add -b master if building on 64-bit
cd lge-kernel-sniper
make ARCH=arm knzo_p970_defconfig
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=../arm-eabi-4.6/bin/arm-eabi-

The kernel will be at arch/arm/boot (zImage), use it with Aprold's kernel injector package and voilá.
[LG Optimus Black] Duarte777:
Awesome ;) Welcome back :P
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
Oh, it's just for fun and to keep aprold busy.

Make sure to add git://github.com/CyanogenMod/lge-kernel-sniper.git as upstream and keep it updated.

Ah, don't disable KSM as I did in my first test release as P970 will probably struggle for RAM in JB.

As for my repo/changes, feel free to fork, test, retest, revert, whatever.

Hi guys, I'm going to try build this kernel, just for fun.

It will be my second attempt on building a kernel, my first try didnt work like it should...I wonder why:p

I'm more into Windows Servers/AD/TCPIP and that kind of stuff and very basic skills on linux.

Can I count on your help?
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
Yeah of course but it's actually quite simple.

Just grab virtualbox and an ubuntu image, install it then open a terminal and do the commands I posted.

As for all the others asking for a flashable zip: no, crackflashers and average users, this thread is not for you. This is for developers, pseudo-developers, enthusiasts and oldschool users who are here to learn, not for those who are here because they think they are entitled to the service of after-market customization.

Great job, but how to fix wifi problem?
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
You did them wrong because the toolchain is not in the correct place as that error is because it's not accessing the toolchain path. CROSS_COMPILE=../arm-eabi-4.6/bin/arm-eabi- means that you must have cloned it in the directory before the kernel one. Also, try changing the branch according to 32 or 64-bit (cd ~/arm-eabi-4.6 ===> git checkout master).

Aprold didn't have a wlan problem. I need more information about this. I have changed the config to have the wireless module built-in but this shouldn't be causing problems.
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
Try grabbing the wireless.ko in drivers/net/wireless/bcm43291 (CONFIG_BCM4329=m) and add it in system/lib/modules.

But as knzo said, it was made built-in in the kernel. May or may not solve.

What's the best configuration for Kernel SamePage Merging (KSM) on a 512Mb memory device? I enabled it together with ZRAM on the KU5900 kernel (personal).

I see the talks here http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#/c/12118/ but just want to know your thoughts on this. Thanks.
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
Like I said in one of the first posts, KSM should be enabled and useful for LG Black as 4.1.1 is very RAM hungry. As for the tunables, fine as they are.
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
I see. I must have missed the post, saw it now on 3rd. Thanks.

It was disabled on default on the 3.0.8 LG's source. Good thing I came upon the config diffs.

Thanks again.
[LG Optimus Black] TheMeier:
Well i did not touch them too and i get "no vdd!" for mpu.0 and l3_main.0. I havent found the time to check that on CM10 nightly yet, since I am moving. But since i mostly did not touch arch-omap2 at all i guess it has the same problem. So, do you have "no vdd!" in dmesg too?

Its propably worth comparing the the gingerbread kernel sources from LG or is there an ICS kernel from LG available by now?
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
I don't have a p970 anymore, aprold is the one providing me feedback.

Yes, there is ICS kernel from LG. KU990 or something.

It's KU5900. I ll try to give you a dmesg tomorrow for the wifi bug.
