Unfortunately, the mtrack driver is no longer available in the AUR. There is a a git version I will try later this week. Or I will finally have to learn how to build Arch AUR packages...

Thanks!
[Asus Transformer TF700] xFaultx:
A few questions. Sorry, new to Linux, trying to get the handle on it.

1. Any suggestions on the random crashes and freezes? Had it crash 3 times on me today over the course of an hour. Possibly out of ram?

2. Is there anyway to do USB ram like you can do with windows 7? Such as turning a usb stick into another source of RAM?

3. Flash, is it possible?

4. Any tweaks or suggestions to someone who is new to linux?
[Asus Transformer TF700] JoinTheRealms:
most likely ram, for now just make sure you keep an eye on ram usage. should be fixable with a swap file, Are you using arch? it has more free ram than ubuntu

Yes, i believe windows implementation(readyboost?) is just a swap file on external storage. Ive got a class 10 sdcard on the way so ill start experimenting with swap soon.

Yes but sadly still no flash enabled youtube on the tf700 (strangly it does work on the tf300t...) have a look here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=40813881&postcount=129

Hard to say, as it depends on what you want from linux. A good first start is to get it looking the way you want. Try out some different desktop environments etc.
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
There is no such thing as USB RAM. The nearest thing you can do is use it as swap space.

Got confused between the Arch Linux and Ubuntu. Tried installing Arch, but for some reason Im getting a complete black screen once i log in under root/root, and nothing works from the right click menu options. Uring the tf700 login, nothing works.Any ideas?
[Asus Transformer TF700] workdowg:
Root gui login is a nono... Doesn't work.

As for archtf700t login (password: archarm), when you installed did you deselect "Use mmcblk0p8 as /home" as the opening post warns? At the moment I haven't put together the separate home files for download or modified the installer for Arch specifically...

IMHO...You are probably better off deleting the /data/media/linux/rootfs.img (as root in Android terminal) and installing again without "Use mmcblk0p8 as /home".
[Asus Transformer TF700] xFaultx:
Deleted what you said, reinstalled, and didnt use mmc as home. Every time i log in uncer archtf700t, it goes to a screen that says stuff really fast, then just takes you back to the log in screen, Any ideas?
[Asus Transformer TF700] workdowg:
Need to look in the Xorg log file in /var/log/. The most recent one is the one you want, something like Xorg.0.log
[Asus Transformer TF700] xFaultx:
Where is this folder? Under root explorer I cannot find it.

Also, probably a kernel issue, but my android keeps crashing after the screen goes to sleep. I had no issues with getting Lubuntu installed, tried switching to arch for a performance boost, but having lots of issues
[Asus Transformer TF700] workdowg:
Arch is not for the inexperienced... A lot of things need to be done manually. That it what really makes it a good disto, you only install what you want.

About the Xorg log file, you need to get to a terminal, which you may not be able to. You can do it if you have a dock (or the Asus usb adapter). You will need to plug a usb keyboard in and at the lightdm login screen, press control+alt+ F3. This will bring you to a console screen where you can login as root:root. Then run this command:

cp /var/log/Xorg* /mnt/android/data/media/0/Download/

Then just attach the files it copies to your post.

I can't install Netctl.

/use/bin/wifi-menu exists in filesystem. As well as a bunch of other files.. I suppose I can try and remove them. Also I had to install openresolv as it is a netctl dependency.

Any help would be great, thanks.
[Asus Transformer TF700] workdowg:
You can just delete those files as root. To be safe just rename them. Then run pacman again. Files some times get orphaned.

Btw... I've been thinking of using netctl, let me know how it does on wifi auto connect.

[Asus Transformer TF700] darkreaper476:
That's what I thought, so I went a head and just removed them. Netctl seems to work, but nothing connects. No errors or anything. But nothing connects. Lol I did what the original post said to do and still nothing. How is everyone else connecting?

[Motorola Droid RAZR] positivehxcgo:
Can anyone attest to their 4g signal after the JB OTA? I'm in LaGuardia right now (Not my home town) and I keep fluxing between 4g and 3g.

I'm curious if it's the airport or just the new radio.

Share your thoughts and let's start a dialogue!?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bwheelies:
Mine is worse. Drops to 3g all of the time.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] 1droidmod:
Seems the same.. XT912
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Blueduck3285:
Mine is worse.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] just lou:
I've been on it since Christmas, and if anything JB has been better for me.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bwheelies:
Talking about the ota jb. Leak was OK on signal. Ota seems to drop 4g a lot!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Doctor Butts:
Official OTA radio is leagues worse than the leak.

I constantly drop data connectivity and wifi all the time. it is horrible. I want to go back to the leak.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ddv2005:
I got the same but I found that it because of wrong APN. I have to APNs with same name - Verizon Internet. First one uses eHRDP bearer but second one - LTE. Right one APN is second one (LTE bearer). You can change it via Settings->More->Mobile networks->Access Point Names . But sometimes it resets to first one and I don't know why.

Dmitry
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bwheelies:
You may be on to something. I changed mine to second option and have not lost 4g yet.

Why they have vzwinternet twice is beyond me.

I also changed to lte/cdma instead of global.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bwheelies:
Signal is dropping like a mofo. Verizon is becoming the new ATT.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] heblu:
You can use older radio
[Motorola Droid RAZR] just lou:

Hi!

Im thinking on using a custom rom.

My phone usage is average and I dont play games.

I would like to have Android 4.2.2, and also, better battery life would be a plus.

I have been watching some roms (IceColdJelly and Viper, specially), which I liked.

Would those roms improve battery life? Or they would decrease battery life?

Should i use a custom rom?

Thanks in advance! ;)
[HTC One X] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
just try it ...just try and look which one of those would be the best for you...no one can say whats better...just download, try and look...if one isn't good as you want then flash another there are many roms to try :P
[HTC One X] Maher88:
I'm using CM10.1 , it's based on AOSP and it has the latest android 4.2.2 and the latest kernel 3.1.10

it has a good battery life and works great for daily usage

Just make sure to read the WHOLE thread before flashing

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1786696

if you desire a different ROM, you can take a look at the following thread , it has a good list of SENSE and AOSP based Roms

it get updated often and has alot of good to know things

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1832891

good luck :laugh:

---------- Post added at 01:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:16 PM ----------

the usage of battery is related to many things, how much CPU do the ROM uses, do the phone get a good signal or nor, how bright is the screen, do you leave BT or WIFI on? and the most important .. do your phone get enough sleep (deep sleep) or there's something that keeps the CPU running?

so it depends on the ROM and you

I advice you to read reviews and change logs of the ROMS you like before flashing

you can flash a custom kernel to get more battery life, though I recommend you to stick to the ROM's own kernel

you MUST ;)
[HTC One X] Wilks3y:
I wouldn't say Viper would improve your battery as such, but installing a Custom ROM / Kernel definitely would.

Try a few, see which one suits you most. Then stick with it.

Same with the kernel, a kernel makes most difference to battery IMO.
[HTC One X] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
AW: [Q] Custom Rom?

Latest sense roms also have 3.1.10 because of JB and it isn't worth to flash 4.2.2 Rom because it wouldn't improve battery life...but if you like pure android more then sense then try them ....try some roms out and then you can see which is better

Gesendet von meinem HTC One X mit Tapatalk 2
[HTC One X] Maher88:
sure thing , I didn't say any deference , I just pointed that out , cause the official kernel codes were recently released by HTC

before it was released it was all unofficial kernels (like the one created by Trip)

You'll have to consider the pros and cons of flashing a custom ROM , you don't only get 4.2.2 , you also get the mods and tools

in CM10.1 (for example) you get way more than just the AOSP

launcher control , lock screen options, hardware keys control, themes, system control (status, quick settings, notification light and back-light controls, swipe to unlock, power menu, fast charge, profiles, new languages, aosp keyboard, performance control (change CPU governor and clock speed), memory management , surface improvement an a lot MORE!!!!

that's true, even after reading reviews I had to try many ROMS before finding the ONE for me.
[HTC One X] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
AW: [Q] Custom Rom?

Yea i Know that but way better battery life than with sense roms he won't get xD but if he want to customize it more then sense roms or so he could try it ;)

Just released another live wallpaper. This wallpaper is tells how much battery you have left, voltage, temp and status. The spinning core will spin faster when you have full battery and slow down when your battery level gets lower. Also included are some particle effects. There's a few customization on the free version and more in the paid version. Its been optimized to use as little ram as possible and update cycles were slowed down to drain less battery. Tested on nexus 4, nexus 7, galaxy s2, galaxy s3 and lg g2x. Nexus 4 and Nexus 7 were my primary test devices so it should work pretty good on them. Check it out.

8-16-2013: Updated to allow users on the free version to get all features of the paid version by completing simple free offers. Download it for more info. Also, some bug fixes.

Looks cool, installing now.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] EPayne123:
Installing also, love how it is themed to match the AOSP visually!

---------- Post added at 05:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:42 AM ----------

Paid version uses almost a third of the RAM per "Running Apps" section in Settings... awesome!
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] wtfshouldidonow:
It's awesome.. But it uses too much of the cpu. I was surprised to see that after a few minutes of using the lwp, I suddenly saw it in the battery usage settings and it says that it's using about 7% of the battery.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] qkhang:
That's weird. I've never seen it on my battery usage, not even on my nexus test devices. I truly put my test devices to the test when I develop on them. The only time I've ever noticed live wallpapers showing up on the battery use percent is when I just fully charged and rebooted or something like that. It probably only shows up cause I haven't done much on the phone
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] qkhang:
This might be a problem with the free version...I may have forgotten to change some code around. I know I had some last minute code changes...hmm...I'll need to look into it in a few days. Kinda burned out right now and I really dont want to look at any code for a few days.

I updated the app, thanks to some feedback. Should be available in a couple of hours. Heck, if anyone has any different core ideas, dont be afraid to tell me about. If its something I can create, I'll credit you with it.

New updated things:

* Move text to top of battery core

* Cleaned up settings menu

* Adjust glow effect color on battery core(paid version only)

* Glow effect of battery core changes color on low battery, user sets low battery point

[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] nghj:
the wallpapers looks a bit off to the right. if you can center it, then it'd be prefect.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] qkhang:
I updated the app. Its should be more centered now. Also added in 2 new basic cores, nothing fancy. I'm hoping to get in much better look cores in the future.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] keocau:
awesome!! installing soon :good:
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] qkhang:
Published another update. This time I think the 2 new cores, Core Type3 and Core Type 4 are pretty cool. Also added in some more particle shapes.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] hipocrazy:
It went up as my wallpaper the day you posted it and it never came down. Sweet!!
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] qkhang:
Added another update. I dont know if anyone noticed, but I managed to fudge cake Core 2 with the Arc Reactor in my last update. There's also been a slight design change. It was a difficult decision, but I think in the end its a better design. Plus, doing it this way, has increased performance on phones 1 year or older, not that the nexus 4 has any problems with it. Heck, I still think its pretty powerful...running 60 fps even when flipping through the home screen really fast...unlike the Nexus 7, drops a few frames.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] qkhang:
App has been updated.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Pao:
Does it drain much battery or not?
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] qkhang:
Two answers for you. Yes, it will drain battery if you sit there and stare at it for a long time. No, if you use your phone regularly it wont. Dont forget though, everything you do on your phone drains battery and I mean everything.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] nature1:
Since no one did a review I guess I will be happy to do one.

I love the design of it, the way it fits the phone perfectly. BUT there is one disadvantage which is the magnetic strip interferes with the GPS signal as one user stated in this topic (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2187199&highlight=zenus). As you can see in the picture where the paperclip is pointed that is where the magnetic area is slightly pulling the paperclip. Every time I put this case on the GPS signal does not lock on at all. As soon as I take it off the GPS signal locks on.

If GPS use not an option for you then this case is fine for you. If GPS is a necessity then this case is NOT for you. I have returned the case. It was an easy process.

If your willing to still buy it. It's worth $35 on amazon.com.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] AnonymousPenguin:
I am thinking of getting one of these. Does it still close well with 2 credit cards and a bit of cash?

Shame about the GPS, someone on Amazon claimed that the mobile signal is affected as well. This is not true, right?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] nature1:
It closes fine but some credit cards have raised indentations. When you close the case with items in it, it is a pretty tight fit to the point where it may scratch your screen when hard cards are inserted. Since the cover does move a tiny bit causing any hard cards to rub against the screen. Paper items are fine since it wont scratch the screen as well as money. Ill say the most that you can fit is one credit card in the top pocket and one in the bottom or 2 paper cards. Any more will bulge the case when it's close and may increase the chance that the cards may rub against the screen causing a slight mark.

As for the mobile signal I was not sure I had no problems making a call on 1-5 bars while I am outside but when I put the case on I notice it did drop 1 to 2 bars less from 5. It is the GPS signal that does not lock on when this case is on.

I have a screen protector on anyways so I was not worried.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] luckywabbit:
Glad I found this post! Bummer about the GPS lock issue. I was getting ready to make a purchase on this case as well, but I use GPS every day, so it's not suitable for me.

I was wondering if there were some kernels that were compatible with the stock rom. If there are could you list some popular ones? I've tried to research but couldnt find anything. Guess i suck at searching.........
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] CamFlawless:
Go the original development sections and look for threads labeled kernel and read their OPs to see if they are compatible with touchwiz (stock.) Flashing a kernel requires being root also. ;)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mrhaley30705:
Aside from root access, you will also need a custom recovery.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Pbwizkid:
I sugest the KT kernel is has a nifty app that gives you a lot of tweaks
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] I.R.Chevy:
+1 to ktoonz kernels for being user friendly.

If your going to flash anything always follow the steps to not brick your device.

Always make a backup whether you use cwm, or tw always boot into it and backup and then your not stuck with something you don't want and you can magically go back on time to your stock ROM.

I personally think if your going to bother changing kernels its almost as easy as changing ROMs. Either way you will have to root and that's more of a hassle than flashing a ROM.

Goodluck.

Pin it to Win it.
