i know im posting in the wrong thread and im sorry. coz i didnt find any solution for my problem with miui v4 build 3.2.22 ics version.

can i use custom kernel for that version? flashing cooexe got something error, tryin with flash image GUI phone didnt boot...i need sweep2wake badly.

thanks before and sorry for post in a wrong thread.
[HTC EVO 3D] khajit2412:
I tried Yoda´s kernel v11.5. It didn´t work neither. Try Anryl´s kernel. Worked for me :good:
[HTC EVO 3D] thowed:
Will try it this noon...
[HTC EVO 3D] Snoob25:
Install flash image gui and flash anryl's kernel, then you can flash any kernel you like from recovery, without errors!

[HTC EVO 3D] khajit2412:
Or... (Even better) go S-OFF :D
[HTC EVO 3D] Snoob25:
also with s-off you'll have these problems with official miui :)
[HTC EVO 3D] thowed:
LOL im on s-off mate :D

yeah notice this trick one days ago...

its weird long time ago while stiil hboot 1.53 and older build version im not facing those problem.

since in which version that annoying error occurred mate?
[HTC EVO 3D] Snoob25:
i don't know, i always had this "problem"! as far as i read it's related to stock secured boot.img

if you need to install often miui v4 i suggest you to do the steps above, back up boot.img and paste it inside rom's zip (along modules of course) :)

Sorry :laugh: Wrong shot
[LG Optimus 3D] guitovski:
Hi guys, first of all thanks for the work from all of you.

I bought recently a LG P920 and installed ICS using some tutorials from XDA users/developers. Sometimes I feel that the phone is not responding as I want and it should.

Today I installed Android System Info from Play Store and at memory I get the information that the total memory is 410MB... It should be 512MB, right?

I attach a screenshot for all of you see.

Mine is the same. Probably some ram is reserved for the os.
[LG Optimus 3D] GlossGhost:
To have a responsive phone, do this:

1. Use 2D GPU rendering.

2. Use swap (you are using it by default).

3. Use the V6 Supercharger script (google it).

4. If you overclocked your processor lower the frequency as it tends to get slow and unstable on higher frequencies.
[LG Optimus 3D] chewingum16:
Can you explain more..please? And how to use swap..v6 supercharger...please please i'm so intereseted. I'm in V6 Experia Rom by optimusRs. Thank you.
[LG Optimus 3D] drastic00:
V6 is in android dev/hacks section. Just read the directions. The scripts are good about telling you if you need to do anything first.

I am not familiar with swap :confused:
[LG Optimus 3D] Dr. Mario:
410 MB is system-issued memory from the CPU driver inside kernel and what's little left get assigned to GPU - if you are familiar with nForce chipsets, they work the same way.
[LG Optimus 3D] guitovski:
But LG say's that the phone has 512MB RAM... If we have ony 410MB, LG is cheating us.

Sent from my LG-P920 using Xparent BlueTapatalk 2
[LG Optimus 3D] p-vlad:
but the chipset is not Nvidia.
[LG Optimus 3D] Dr. Mario:
I know. Still, it work the similar way - the 512MB is halved for separate processors; 410 MB for system and other left for GPU - 512MB DDR-II is what's soldered atop the CPU.

EDIT: If you have done any of PC modding or DIY build, you would know what IGP (Integrated Graphics Processor) is, it takes a bit of main RAM (very few IGPs have their own RAM memory), and what you are seeing on your phone is the same thing you would expect from PC with IGP enabled. BTW, IGP sucks, so I personally disabled it and used separated VPU (AMD Radeon HD4670 video card), so I can have back precious bandwidth.
[LG Optimus 3D] chewingum16:
you can use this app ...it's amazing!! try it and report ..??

i'm satisfy with it and i don't use task manager.

it's more than app it's a magic for LG p920

1) how can i fix the issues?

2) is it OK if i re-flash the phone with official 4.1.2 firmware(downgrading) using odin?

Be sure to wipe data as well, failure to do so will probably result in a bootloop.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drelite08:
You can roll back from a back up. Just beware you have to move the folder back to the root of the phones internal sd. Then once you've restored delete the folders apart from /0 and move everything from inside /0 to the root of the internal sd. Then delete /0 after.

Anonymous sources for MD2 kernel

DJRBliss for Motochopper root exploit

Chainfire for SuperSU

jcase for setting the record straight on kernel root block (learn something new every day!)

And you, the community! Otherwise we wouldn't be here! Thank you!

Background:

The MDK kernel contains features that disable the su binary by default.

There are ways to bypass this once rooted but attempts to use Motochopper failed.

So we needed another way to get root.

...Enter the MD2 Kernel. At the moment one of the easiest doors into allowing Motochopper.

Download Links for MD2 Kernel TAR: http://www.sxtpdevelopers.com/showthread.php?t=256

There are two mirrors posted on that thread.

Steps are pretty simple:

1) Enter Odin Mode - Hold Vol Down + Power from power off. (ADB reboot download also works with USB debugging on)

2) Flash MD2 kernel

3) Go to the Motochopper thread and follow the steps in OP.

Congratulations! You are now rooted.

Follow-Up/Notes:

1)

You will want to go back to MDK kernel

after rooted to avoid kernel/ROM mismatch and potential issues due to it. A few weeks ago this may have been an issue due to the root block but jcase has informed me that is corrected as of the latest SuperSU. So please update to latest SuperSU and flash back the MDK kernel. You can find a link to that here.

2) Warnings will now come up once rooted.

You can suppress these by freezing SEAndroid.apk

Questions/Concerns/Etc.

Please post here if there are any questions, concerns, comments, etc. We're still human and can certainly make mistakes - I'll be happy to correct them if any are brought to light.

Enjoy!

sweeeeet!!! thanks!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Jdella681:
Any way to get rid of the "custom" screen when turning the phone on?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] garwynn:
Did you flash back the MDK kernel yet?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Jdella681:
Yea it's on that kernel already. Everything is working fine but I'd prefer to get that fixed for future "warranty" issues if I need to bring it to the store.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] garwynn:
If you need to reflash stock via Odin before you take it in. That's the only way I know at the moment to get around it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Jdella681:
NM I had to unroot and reflash the kernel. Afterwards just flash the kernel to root them update the binaries (missed that step) and flashed the normal kernel. Problem solved.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] slackwaresupport:
I flashed old kernel rooted flashed new. now no root anyone else have same issue?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] biggboii:
I'm having that issue. It's not working.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] garwynn:
Did you follow the step correctly that said install the latest version of SuperSU before flashing MDK kernel?

I'll bet that's what was missed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] slackwaresupport:
yes.. i was already on the older kernel with root.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] garwynn:
Right. But from what I have been told it won't hold with Superuser, which is what is installed with Motochopper. That's why have to change to Chainfire's SuperSU.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] alekurkudi:
Sorry if this is a dumb question but if I use this method for root how would I unroot if needed? Thanks in advance.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] garwynn:
Remove su binary, superuser.apk and busybox if installed.

Ok, so after less than 24 hours, I'm finding my S4 switches to 3g more often than my Rezound did when I am in a 4G area. I KNOW I am in a 4g area. On the rezound I used an app called LTE switch, and I was able to select the network I wanted to use..I.E: LTE only, LTE & CDMA, LTE CDMA & EVDO, CDMA PRL, GSM, etc.... However, this app is not working on the S4. I use to force my Rezound to stay in LTE with this app, and basically eliminate 3G from it while I was in a 4G area. Anyone know how to do this on an S4, or know why LTE switch doesn't work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] virus86:
I would like to know this too. I used the "LTE OnOff" on my Motorola Bionic to switch between 3G and 4G LTE and it does not work on the S4.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Cubs2008:
This worked for me this afternoon. As I mentioned in other threads if you're getting stuck at boot.img in Odin try using a USB port on the back of your PC. That was what did it for me (to get the kernel installed.) I did everything else from the back USB port as well and it went great.

I've found this to be true for many different phones. I ALWAYS use the back USB port!

I know I have read somewhere about the "Boot unlock- Custom" message that appears when you boot the phone, could somebody point me in the right direction on how to fix this please? (Running stock softwear, no ROM yet)

Also, how would I go about switching the Superuser app to SuperSU? (I have the paid SuperSU I use from my tablet and want to use it with my new S4)- NVM- Chainfire made it all to easy for beginners like myself. SuperSU will overwrite and remove superuser automaticly for anybody else with this!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] BladeRunner:
I can confirm that freezing SEAndroid 1.0 removes the warning instantly
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ilkevinli:
Install SuperSU and update the binaries. Then uninstall superuser and reboot the phone 2 times and the unlock icon will be gone. Good luck.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] brizey:
So what about flashing back to the stock kernel once SU is installed as per the directions on sxtp?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] open1your1eyes0:
If this works for a couple of folks, later on I'll try to modify motochopper to use SuperSU instead of Superuser.

For now it's not required, I'm going to do a lot of testing tonight and if restoring the VRUAMDK kernel still works with latest SuperSU I may just update both at once.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ilkevinli:
It worked for me. This was posted somewhere in the AT&T S4 section.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] joshw0000:
Thanks I'll be trying this as soon as I get my hands on a S4 (soon).

We need an unlocked bootloader to get a working recovery right? Would it be semi safe to assume we can follow some of the other models (i9505, AT&T etc..,) "de-bloat" threads to de-bloat ours?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] km8j:
are there any risks with this method, i.e., not being able to receive OTA? can we easily de-root and restore root?

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deshex:
Hi everybody!

I've a Desire with stock rom 2.3 (and no root yet) and it worked fine until last week.

If I try to install a new app I receive an error about free memory space. I've already try to move all apps to sd but nothing, I can't install anything.

I've try also to do an hard reset and fully wipe/factory reset (from recovery) and for a while it seems to works, but if I install some apps the problem come back.

Why? What can I do?

A friend suggest that maybe there are some directory in filesystem from older app (now unistalled) and, since I haven't root permession, I can't remove them. With root permission can I fix it?

Thanks!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4691845:
I flashed a custom rom on my desire which used the sd card as internal storage. Problem solved.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chromium:
Read this guide to s-off, and install a custom recovery

Use this guide to create a 1gb ext4 partition on your sd card. No swap.

Download a custom rom from the htc desire dev section and flash it. I would recommend milwilds redux rom. It will automatically install apps to the parittion and you will have space.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deshex:
thanks for reply!

I'd like to fix this problem without flash new rom, eventually with root only. It's possible?

When I bought this there was space enough, why now I haven't? Factory reset does not erase all partition and sistems directories?

Thanks!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eddiehk6:
Also, before you flash the Rom, best to flash recommended hboot if necessary, read the first post or search each thread.

This way you use your internal memory more efficiently.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abaaaabbbb63:
Factory reset only deletes user data.

When you bought it, you didn't have apps installed, and probably apps were smaller back then.

What are you trying to say? That you want to flash a stock rooted ROM?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deshex:
Nope.

All my apps were installed somewhere in filesystem (maybe in /system?). My question is: when I do a factory reset, what I'm going to erase? Only user data in user directories, or all content of every system directory? (of course, not system files).

I'm only trying to understand why when I bought the phone I've a "lot" of space for my app and now, after a factory reset, I've not enough free space to install more then 2/3.

Example: I wipe/fr, reboot and config the phone; then I try to install Ruzzle (16Mb),Whatsapp (9Mb) and FB(18Mb). Now if I try to install any other apps I get the alert message of free space. Same error if I try to record a video or take a photo.

I think there is something wrong.. :rolleyes:

I hope that you can read and understand what I'm writing, my english is a little rusty :D
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abaaaabbbb63:
A factory reset will wipe /data, dalvik cache and /cache.

When did you buy your phone? I remember that, when I first bought my Desire, facebook was only 8mbin size, and moved to sd, it only took 2 mb of internal memory. Plus, large apps require large dalvik cache. That's why your memory gets filled so easily.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bernalex:
You can resolve easily and keeping your stock ROM (but you'll need a FAST microSD card, my 32GB is class 10):

1) Root and s-off your device

2) Format your microSD with an EXT2, EXT3 or EXT4 partition of 1GB, then the rest as FAT32 (you can do it directly from phone using the 4ext recovery, or you can format the card from PC using a tool for partitioning which supports linux formats... I don't know if I can mention names in this thread).

3) Install INT2EXT or INT2EXT+ from recovery.

4) You'll have 1GB internal memory with no out-of-space problems.

That's all ;)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] freebird24h:
Stock kernel doesn't support ext4 nor ext3, use only ext2 if u want to keep it.

Anyway, I believe that supernova ROM would be a much better option, it's basically stock GB made by HTC with some tweaks and script for more space.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deshex:
Thanks for replies!

I still do not understand why I've no memory for apps after a factory reset; if I wipe all data, I restore all space, like when I bought the phone. Ok, apps are bigger than 2 years ago, but not so bigger that with 3 apps I occupy all space!

Anyway I'm considering to upgrade to a newer version; if I must give root permission, install tools, repartition sdcard and so on, I might as well to flash a newer version.

Curiosity: are there filesystem directories that are not intrested from a wipe? Differently, which directories will not wiped during a factory reset?

Thank you very much!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dethrat:
yes what your seeing is caused by the apps being a lot bigger now. Facebook is a lot bigger.

And its impossible for your apps to be going to system. You'll have to root and use a2sd
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deshex:
I've install over 40 apps until this problem, including big app like FB.. strange things...

So, how much memory I have?

Rom 4.x for desire has a different partitions? If I just flash a new rom (like 4.0/4.1), will I fix this problem?

Thanks!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abaaaabbbb63:
You need a rom with an a2sd script, regardless of it being GB, ICS or JB.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deshex:
Good, I will search in subforum for a new rom.

Maybe it's a bit OT, but JB rom are stable enough for daily use? Can you suggest me a JB rom with a2sd script? (or even ICS, if JB is not stable enough).

Thank you!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chromium:
I use jb as a daily driver. The ROM in my sig is the most stable jb ROM I've tried. It has very few soft reboots and has decent speed. It also has a2sd. (Activated through terminal after flashing rom)

However if you really need stability, speed and reliability I would highly recommend using gingerbread. Mildwilds ROMs are great and most of them have an a2sd script as well, which is automatically activated. Try the one based on redux.
