One thing I'm going to experiment with after activating the GN2 today is a quick flash of CSC data. The goal would be that you flash this image in Odin after a build and it will apply the correct settings.

Now keep in mind I won't be able to test beyond flashing as this phone will be deactivated. But if it works - and I should be able to see what the settings are at least - I'll put it out there for others to test.

Until then the best way to get around it is to modify the settings manually. Sprint, Boost and Virgin are the same h/w, all the issues you are experiencing are settings based only.

Sprint touchwiz doesn't have files to work with virgins mms. That's why there's no tw fix yet, only cm10. You can read more about it in one of the mms fix threads, but I can't remember which one.

was wondering if updating the firmware would possibly improve this

if so can anyone point me in the right direction regarding firmware please
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BaconBits:
GSM, WCDMA (or equivalent) or do you mean GPS signal? If yes, then look up your gps.conf file and change your location.

I suggest to look up MTK Tools by Uncle Mobile if your phone is rooted to make enhancements easy.

It depends on which ROM you are using.

In the official 2.3.x and 4.0.4, press home and power together for 2 seconds.

In the official 4.0.3, press volume down and power together for 2 seconds.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] daniil1410:
I am using franco kernel r350 and CM 10.1. Is there a way to overclock the GPU to 384MHz?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Angelakaro:
From now on,(i think) franco will release kernel only with GPU at 512 mhz since he succeded to keep it stable. Maybe with some games your device will heat fast,but i can ensure to you that GPU clock set at 512 MHz wont give any issue and,also,will give you best performance ever. Of course,kernels for 4.2 need yet some optimizations

Inviato dal mio Galaxy Nexus usando xda premium
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] daniil1410:
But I thought that the GPU is 309 MHz by default in his kernel. And I thought that 512MHz eats more battery?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Angelakaro:
The default (in stock kernel) is 307 MHz,the next step over clock is 384 and after there is 512 MHz. Me too thought that 512MHz was too high and that 384 was the best balance,but you have to choose: if you want better gaming performance, use franco kernel and disable thermal throttle: without overclocking the CPU your phone wont warm up over 80°C in most games. If you want to play games without sucking battery,use the stock galaxy nexus kernel (which sucks in gaming performance). Hope i've been useful. All the best and merry xmas!

Inviato dal mio Galaxy Nexus usando xda premium
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] daniil1410:
If I don't play many games and I use 512MHz will I use a lot more battery than with 307 or 384?

How can I be sure that I have 512MHz? When I go to settings somewhere I see blackened 307MHz.

Merry Christmas to you too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Angelakaro:
No,you won't save a lot of battery with GPU at the stock clock if you don't play heavy games. I don't know how to check the GPU clock in a better way than installing franco's app or trickster mod

Inviato dal mio Galaxy Nexus usando xda premium
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] daniil1410:
I have both of those apps and I don't see GPU freq .
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Angelakaro:
Yes i know,but if you enter device monitor section in franco app you can control GPU voltage and clock. Of course,if you don't use your phone GPU is idle but if you pull down the notification bar and press back very very quickly,GPU goes to high speed and you'll see max freq

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] altimax98:
For me running at 512gpu allowed me to run 1200 CPU and underclock the hell out of it with no heat issues and it nets me better battery life.

Yes,you're right,but i usually leave the underclock at values defined by franco

[General Topics] nookle:
I was wondering if anyone had any info on the status of roms for the Behold II. I just got one, used but in very good shape, and I am trying to get it to work better. I am fairly sure these phones were pretty popular, and I can't believe they were (almost) completely ignored. I found a pretty nice clean android 1.6 rom that I threw on it, but it has no vibrate.

Does anyone know of any stable gingerbread roms for this phone? If not, anyone know how to get vibration to work? Is there anyone out there willing to work on this phone at all?
[General Topics] nookle:
Or can anyone point me in the direction of some information on taking the rom apart and figuring out how to get the vibration working? Basically I need to find out how to take apart a rom, then figure out how to get vibration working properly. It's driving me nuts that the phone doesn't vibrate when I get calls/texts.
[General Topics] gagdude:
Isn't that Donut? *throws up*

Couldn't find any ROMs above 1.6 with some googling. Its also likely that you would not be able to fix the vibrate issue, if the Dev couldn't. If you want to "take the ROM apart," just take the .zip file and unzip it.

But I recommend getting a new phone.
[General Topics] nookle:
It is indeed Donut. That's why I wanted to try and find a gingerbread rom or figure out how to make my own.

I unzipped the rom and dug around in there. I found some other thread on these forums about vibration and the symlinks and vibrate.ko. I checked in init.rc (on the phone) and found some lines about inserting modules relating to VibeTonez and the module "vtmdrv.ko" but I don't know if it is commented properly or turned on or symlinked or whatever. I see nothing about an actual vibrate.ko or anything.

How do I check my updater-script for the correct symlink?

I found this thread that has given me some interesting information: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1946614

and also this one: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1405366

Thanks for the interest! Unfortunately, I cannot just get a new phone. I am basically stuck with this one for the foreseeable future.
[General Topics] gagdude:
No prob. Always interested in the legacy devices.

I wouldn't try to fix the vibrate, the developer himself states it will likely never be fixed (http://androidforums.com/behold-2-all-things-root/54769-port-galaxy-1-6-behold-2-final.html). I didn't read into the thread, but usually some user asks why vibrate doesn't work, dev explains, etc. You don't know if the problem with the ROM is the same as the issues found in the threads you searched.

If you want Gingerbread, it looks like the device is pretty much dead, however you can port CM7 from a similar device. It would be quite a chunk of work though.
[General Topics] nookle:
Yeah, I have been going over all those threads that have that guy's roms. He made a few of them for this phone, and I am trying to find one that is better. Or the best of them.

I think I may have found a pretty major bug in the one I have, though. I got a call, I didn't want to answer it, and I hit the volume down button to silence the ringer, but it force closed android.phone.com and dropped the call. That wasn't cool.

I am also (kind of half-heartedly) pursuing creating my own rom from scratch. It's quite daunting, but I have a lot of time for the next week or so. My sister is having a complicated pregnancy so I am spending a lot of time at the hospital. There are plenty of guides and tutorials for beginners, so I am reading those and trying to figure things out.

Or I can figure out how to work on the rom this guy made, that would make life much easier.
[General Topics] gagdude:
I wouldn't try to make a ROM from scratch. A better thing to do would be to port. Basically find a ROM made for a phone with similar internals (type of CPU and RAM) and port the ROM. Much easier than making a ROM from scratch which requires knowledge of a few computer languages (mainly java). There are a few porting guides available on the forum.. Lemme find a link
[General Topics] nookle:
Hey, thanks for your help! It's much appreciated! And believe me, if I could get a new phone I would. This phone is on my parent's plan, and only used for calling and texting family. I can't use data or anything. At this point it's more for the sake of learning about how to build an android operating system than anything else. I just want a nice, stable, useful phone that is better than the old school flip phones (of which I have had quite a few over the years).
[General Topics] gagdude:
Once again no prob. I used a legacy device just last year but it had quite some development so all I had to do was flash Roms lol.

Anyways this is how you compile GB

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1183832

And this is how you port. I would port from a similar device like the My touch 3g

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1598713
[General Topics] nookle:
Haha yeah I am in the same boat with my nook. I have been following the devs over in the nook sub-forum for a couple years now. I have had several iterations of gingerbread, a couple of ics, and now a few of jelly bean. I am used to just slamming the rom zip on the sd card and booting into recovery and flashing it over.

For this phone I had to do odin, which was a new experience for me. Went pretty painless, and I figured it out. I prefer the recovery method over odin.

I have one question about the second link, about porting. It says in the first post that if you don't have gb already compiled for your (my)device that guide is useless for you (me). Is that what the first link is for? Compiling specifically for my device? What if my device is not supported at all? Do I just pick a somewhat similar phone, compile, port, make a flashable rom, and put it on the phone and hope it doesn't brick it?
[General Topics] gagdude:
Yep thats what the first link is for. Don't compile and port for a different device, that is a sure way to brick your phone.

Is your device not supported at all? Usually legacy devices are since back then (lol) there weren't a whole ton of Android phones
[General Topics] nookle:
I don't know if my device is supported or not. I have not got to that part in the guide yet. I will report back if it is or isn't.
[General Topics] nookle:
Sorry for not getting back earlier, I've been real busy the past week or two.

I finally got ubuntu set up on a computer, and was following the first guide and ran into a few problems.

First, I wasn't able to install all the required packages. If you want to know what ones they are I wrote them down. Not sure how essential they are in the grand scheme, but they weren't available.

Second, I tried to install java and ran into a problem adding the repos for it. The second one, for src, would not work at all. So I went on sun's or oracle's website and downloaded the linux package and installed it. But apparently it didn't work because all I get after trying to lunch are lots of these:

/bin/bash: java: command not found

Basically anywhere it tries to use java I get those messages. Eventually it gives up and says I have

version: /bin/bash: java: command not found

and I should have

version 1.6

Third, after I issue

source build/envsetup.sh

I see it includes some devices, like htc passion and samsung crespo4g and samsung crespo. Is this normal?

Fourth, When I do lunch I get five options

1. generic-eng
2. simulator
3. full_passion-userdebug
4. full_crespo4g-userdebug
5. full_crespo-userdebug

Should I just pick generic-eng?

I will be out of town all week for work, and won't have access to the computer I am doing all this on. For the life of me I cannot get unbuntu to install on my laptop. Never did like ubuntu, always favored fedora.

Anywho, thanks for any suggestions.
[HTC One V] CurtisAndroid5:
Hello there everybody,

I've been searching for a new Android phone under £200 for the past few days and I stumbled across the HTC One V and it seems like a good upgrade from my OSF2 but I just have a few questions before I decide on ordering it in a few weeks time.

I'll be buying it from ASDA online for only £179 sim-free which seems to be a pretty good deal so I'm just wondering what to expect (in terms of quality of the design etc) from the device when compared to the lower budget phones I've purchased in the past- Samsung Galaxy Europa I5500 and the Orange San Francisco II (OSF2).

I'll be rooting/installing custom recovery and ROMs as soon as I'm comfortable with the device (Which will probably be within a few days) so I understand the toolkit is a pretty easy-to-use tool but I'm wondering which Custom Recovery is the best/most reliable for the HTC One V, on my past devices I've always used Clockworkmod but if the other recoveries are better for the One V then I'll be sure to flash the most compatible/reliable recovery.

Which Custom ROMs are fully working and also is there any ROMs that are fully working and have the stock ICS/JB appearance as I'm not really a fan of the actual appearance of HTC devices although I could learn to love it I guess! So which ROMs would you guys recommend for a fully working/stable daily use device and is there any fully working stable Jelly Bean ROMs?

Finally, I noticed a thread about the HTC One V having a nag for getting bricked easily, some of the things were ridiculous such as holding a certain button combination and when the battery is low it will die and not turn back on. Just wondering if it's a major issue.

Thanks for the taking the time to read this.

Curtis.

EDIT-

I forgot to ask;

Does A2SD scripts + A2SDGUI work on this device? I like to move my Dalvik Cache to my 16gb class10 SD so it'd be nice if it works and how do I know which type of device my phone is as I heard there's something about an International version and a Virgin version (Primou or something like that? I'm completely lost) And finally; what's a stable over-clock for this device? My current phone is 800mhz but is overclocked to 122-902mhz with no issues, just wondering what kinda speed I can boost the One V up to.

Thanks again.
[HTC One V] CurtisAndroid5:
Bump!

Quite eager to get an answer before I purchase!
[HTC One V] Tehwafflez:
I can help a little ;)

There are two recoveries for the one v

TWRP 2.3.1 and CWM 6.0.1

If you are Europe you will get the PrimoU (primo means one U probably means international) it is GSM

The PrimoC is the CDMA version now with its own forum so GSM is under android dev and CDMA is under CDMA dev.

I reccomend the TWRP recovery because I love having a touch screen recovery.

OC and UV settings:

OC'ing: 345min - 1200 or 1500 Max

UV'ing: 245min - 768 or 1024max

Always make nand backups before flashing. Read the directions multiple times. And grab the RUU for your carrier / country if you screw your phone over past restoring a nand backup.

On topic for ROMS bro you are covered. The primoU has everything from Cm9, cm10, aokp, miui, sense ROMs, to PAC man. Your never short of stability either.

The one weird thing to HTCs is you have to flash the kernel from the ROM .zip file (boot.IMG) to get the phone to boot after all that junk

So the process from recovery would be:

-wipe system (factory reset)

-wipe dalvik

Then boot into boot loader

Grab a kernel flasher script (somewhere in forums)

Grab the boot.IMG and use the script and flash it

THEN you can boot into the ROM

I love my one v CDMA sometimes it can be weird but I love it :P
[HTC One V] CurtisAndroid5:
Thanks for the reply, helped a lot!
[HTC One V] sohamssd:
For flashing there is no need of any script. You can just use fastvoot flash boot boot.img....
[HTC One V] CurtisAndroid5:
Can anyone verify if a2sd scripts and A2SDGUI are comparable with this device? I like to move my dalvik cache to SD to save space for plenty of apps. Also does the 1ghz processor struggle with playing games like Temple Run? Finally, can you replace the original stock Sense launcher to something like Apex Launcher from the PlayStore (Probably a stupid question but just want to know if Sense locks things down like that).

Thanks

Hi guys,

I got a serious problem. I imported a Nexus 4 from France to Belgium because it isn't availible in my country, I have it for three weeks now and I was very satisfied.

My friend received a S3 for Christmas so I decided to install Antutu; to compare the two phones.

Anyway, the Nexus just randomly crashed. It wouldn't turn on.

I tried to hard reset it, it didn't work.

I plugged it in to charge, for about an hour; it was blinking red, but still nothing.

Then I connected it in on my PC, the battery icon apperead, I clicked the powr button the Google logo appared again but it turned off.

Now it isn't recognized at all, there is no red blinking led and not recognized on PC..

Any help or I have to find a way to RMA it?

I had a similar problem while running Antutu yesterday

My phone was charged up to about 98% .. At this time I decided to run the benchmark when my phone suddenly turned off 1/2 way through..

I then decided to hold the power button for 10 secs to no avail..

I connected the charger to see if the screen would light up and lo and behold the phone started charging but I discovered my battery had drained to 0% all the way from 98%..

I wasnt sure what caused this so i let it charge for 2 mins then i turned on the phone....It was still at 3%....i left the phone connected to the charger for 15 mins but it never chrged past 3% so i disconnected the charger and restarted the phone..

By the time the phone was booted up, the battery was back to its original 98% and i havent experienced the problem since then even though i have run the antutu benchmark multiple times after the restart...

I find it odd though that we both experienced the problem while running antutu....my best guess is that there is a particular test that interferes with our phones power management

I have a rooted device so decided to play around and make some changes. I loaded the HTC_IME mod keyboard while running ADW Launcher and everything worked fine. I then decided to switch to Apex Launcer and made it the default launcher. Unfortunately it seems that Apex and HTC_IME mod are not compatible. I keep getting an error message that HTC_IME mod has stopped. I can't go into Settings to change to a different keyboard because I have it password protected (App Protector Pro) and I can't use the keyboard. I can't use ADB to get in and delete either the keyboard or launcher because ADB is disabled and I can't get into settings to enable it.

In other words, I totally screwed myself.

Is there any other way to gain control - factory cable, hard reset using buttons on the tablet, sledge hammer.....?
