Mopar is best for me...

Old Mopar that is

In high school my best friends older brother had a1969 Plymouth GTX with a 440 six-pack,

Positrack rear end, and(I believe it was) a 4 speed Muncie rock crusher trans, paint was lime light green with matte black hood scoop and trim with black interior all stock from factory, he'd bought it used but it was only about 4 years old at that time. Think he'd paid less than 2 or 3000$ for it. That's been one of my dream cars ever since lol. Ofc I'd rather have one with the 426 Hemi from the factory...

*Sigh*

Those were the days....

Sorta...

i wish i wouldve grown up in the time were cars where designed by people with brains :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MWisBest:
Got the estimate on the car, it's not pretty but it's about what I expected. Friends and family that aren't attached to the car like I am are thinking it's worth it, they're thinking the car is in great shape and I'll be hard pressed finding another car that's been taken care of like this one. I know this car's history going back 8 years and 90,000 miles without a doubt, I'm not going to be able to say that about another car.

Since I bought the car from my mom, she gave me a really good deal on it. I'm talking like, 40% of the blue book value. So I don't have as much invested into this car than you might think.

Let's say I decide to get a different car, it'd probably have at least 100,000 miles on it and I wouldn't be able to know the history as well as I'd like. 20,000 miles later on said car, I could end up in this same situation.

My Intrepid has already had a decent amount of the usual stuff that comes at around 125,000 miles and 14 years of age replaced. That's done and out of the way and doesn't have to be worried about.

The engine rebuild would take about 3 to 4 weeks. I graduate high school in 2 weeks and have a graduation party the same night, chances are I'll get a decent amount of cash to put towards the car then. (While it'd be intended by them for college tuition, I could find a job much easier this summer than I can now to earn that money back to then put towards tuition...)

The dealership has worked with my mom before on payment plans for the more costly repairs, they'd probably be willing to do that again.

I got some things I can sell to get some extra money to put towards the car as well. Anybody want to buy a "MWisBest Special Edition" Wii? It's been hacked like crazy to run crap like Linux etc, and I could give it a nice paint job if you want! :D (You should see my custom cherry swirl Guitar Hero/Rock Band microphone!)

Hi [MENTION=3390093]MWisBest[/MENTION] Any chance for builds for maguro?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MWisBest:
:good:

Seems pretty constructive to me!

NO. Jeep is made by Chrysler, as is Dodge, and my car is a Dodge Intrepid. BAD SHADOW DEATH, BAD.

(Also, my grandma is letting me use her Jeep for getting to school while my car is inoperative... it's a 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited, has like all the bells and whistles including a V8 engine, which she actually needs because then she can floor it to avoid getting T-Boned. She's like 87 years old, how she's still driving I do not know, but she finally agreed about a year ago to only drive in town from now on...)

We had a Sea Ray which my dad got in the divorce, he traded it in to get a 2004 Honda Goldwing GL1800, we both hate Harley-Davidson...

Harley-Davidson = Hundred Dollars. (If you ask how much some accessory or part etc. is for a Harley, that's your response, hehe.)

It is FAR from perfect!

Yes, and they'll be fun to drive on ice- and snow-covered roads for nearly half of the year!

Yes, I'm planning on doing that soon, especially due to this. Right now I'm very busy as I graduate high school in a couple weeks and am behind in a couple classes and on top of that I'm also scrambling to come up with enough money to at least make a down payment of sorts on rebuilding my car's engine.

BTW, speaking of that, to those who donated when I needed help with my car a little while ago: that money wasn't wasted, the parts I got would've been replaced as part of the engine rebuild anyway, so that helped to cut down on the cost of this.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DR3W5K1:
My dad had one of those limited models. Very nice allot of power it was really fun to drive. They have the big 360 in them.

Your not going to have fun paying for gas in that thing though. It should have that same head up display like your intrepid iirc.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MWisBest:
The gas isn't terrible if you don't punch it like a maniac! It does have a similar display thing up top with the garage door openers etc., however the buttons in the Intrepid one kinda depress more (sort of like the L2/R2 buttons on a PS3 controller) versus the Jeep one which is more "clicky" (like the L3/R3 buttons), which I don't like. Also, the one in my Intrepid has sunroof controls up there too! ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DR3W5K1:
Your right about the gas. I have the lead foot problem. I drive like a Granny trying to get out of the way.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rice923:
Since mpg is of the essence in modern day priorities, I'll mention that my Prius c gets 45 mpg while averaging about 75mph on a trip.

Just something to consider if you can get over the fact that people will express all sorts of bigotry just because you drive a hybrid
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MWisBest:
I like having a car where if you drive it nice 'n easy you can get acceptable mileage but it doesn't just sit there when you want (or need!) to kick it a little, and this Intrepid was pretty good at that. It isn't the bigger 3.5L V6, but it's not the high-maintenance 2.7L V6, it's the just-right 3.2L V6...

You know what the ultimate sleeper car would be? A Prius with liek a 2JZ dropped in there etc., LOL.

It's not of the essence to all ... 13-16 with my truck and I'm fine with it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Shadow Death:
My first vehicle was a 1992 Jeep Cherokee with a 4.0L I6 High Output. That baby would scream when I put my foot into it. The only problem was when she did break down she was expensive. The transmission was built by Mercedes, the rear end was a Dana 33, and those I6's weren't cheap either. I now I have a 98 F-150 with a 5.4L Triton and it is deceptively fast. lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chopstix9:
2003 King Ranch F-150 spotless with same motor. Good truck.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MWisBest:
I have updated the Thank Yous section of the post with donators. A HUGE thank you to all of them for their support!

I was hoping I'd be able to get an awesome build out this weekend but unfortunately I gotta crack down on schoolwork instead. Sorry!! :(

Also, it looks like I'll be going ahead with getting my car engine rebuilt sometime soon. I think the dealer will be letting me and my parents make a down payment of sorts on it and then pay the rest off over time... during that time I'll probably have my car (as well as my bank account) running on fumes but at least it'll all work out in the end! It'll also be nice to not worry so much about babying the engine (once it gets broken in of course) like I had been.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MWisBest:
If you're referring to the camera, I've had this happen once and the only fix was a reboot. It was two apps fighting each other for control of the camera that messed it up, and there was nothing in the logcat on it. Also, if that doesn't fix it give 720P a try instead of 1080P and if that works let me know what kernel you're using. Otherwise the only thing that springs to mind is you're out of internal storage.

If you're referring to the screen recorder, that'd be new to me and a logcat would be helpful.

You want to know what I find extremely funny? The Prius is half a car with half an engine. I have a 98 F-150 with a 5.4L V8 and I average half your milage with twice the weight. :laugh:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MongolPup:
I'm very interested to see what the general tone of the responses will be.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pattyboi:):
probably ignorant and rude.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rice923:
I'm glad you find it extremely funny, even though I'm not sure why. At the end of the day, you said it best; you get half my mileage. Mind you, 45mpg is my all-time low, but that's really aside the point.

I disagree with the Prius being "half a car," but to each their own. I have nothing I need to compensate for. Also, seeing as how MW is planning for college, I don't see him hauling around a few thousand pounds of payload every day.

PS. For the record, I live in San Francisco. It makes absolutely no sense for anyone to drive a truck here unless they are in the construction business. My Prius will transport me and my stethoscope to a hospital quite well. I understand the car culture is vastly different in various regions of the country, but try to keep your rude and belittling comments within the confines of your own walls.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MongolPup:
You guys need to knock off this car talk. Most of you are embarrassing yourselves or wasting your time rising to bait.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rice923:
My apologies. Just defending myself from a blatantly inappropriate post directed towards me. I agree with you. This car stuff is way off topic and unnecessary.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Shadow Death:
Just call me the FlakPanzer. Been giving out flak all day. :silly:

Damn.. Shots fired.. That escalated quickly. I fail to see how my comments were "rude or belittling" I do apologize if that's how it came across. Anyway, my problem is that every time a car subject is brought up on the internet there's always that one guy who goes, "my prius blah blah blah 5000000MPG". To which I usually say, VW Turbo Diesel 40MPG... I don't see a need for a prius.. Yes the gas is cheaper but the maintenance on a diesel is half that of a gas engine. None of that was a jab at you as a person. The point of my Truck vs Prius comment is that a Prius sports a "1.5-liter DOHC 16–valve with VVT-i" and gets 46MPG. My truck uses a 5.4L V8 and gets 23MPG. That's my gripe mostly, it should get better MPG given the conditions of the car. Now don't get me wrong, I'm not one of those truck driving jerks that goes out of my way to mess with a Prius.. In fact I prefer to see Prius cars on the road mainly because they mind their own business and don't USUALLY cut me off... I have had ONE act like a egotistical jerk and decided to cut me off one day. As for MW, no a full sized truck wouldn't be too practical for him.. What I would recommend is a Ford Ranger. I know it sounds goofy but a 2.3L Ranger, one of the new ones mind you, will average around 27 to 32MPG depending on the transmission. Automatic getting the worse. The reason why I recommend a Ranger... Wait until you have a car and need to move a bed... Just a heads up, friends are only there when it benefits them. lol BTW I'm mostly just giving you a hard time because of your comment about taking flak for being a Prius driver. IMO if I went to a car, hell if I COULD go to a car I'd drive a VW Passat TDI.

[MENTION=3390093]MWisBest[/MENTION] I'm still dying to try FML on my maguro. Has that idea been given up on? According to [MENTION=4328678]metalspring[/MENTION] and [MENTION=2393080]baldwinguy77[/MENTION] maguro is the easy one to go to from toro building (just a few different commits), and toroplus is the only real pain. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
Actually the only thing I ever had to do to build maguro was just add the maguro device repo to my source and then just start building. And you dont even need to do make clean between toro, maguro and toroplus.

As for toroplus, all you need to do extra is add 2 commits to frameworks/native and cherry-picking this commit for the torplus blobs (omni never did merge them...).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MWisBest:
No it hasn't been given up! I've just been too busy with school to have the time for it. Expect it either at the end of May or beginning of June?

I have my own vendor repos set up actually, and it's got maguro and toroplus in there as well. I just got upset at all the disk space and bandwidth the "complete" proprietary repos take up, git was not made for binaries! I am aware of the frameworks/native commits required too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pattyboi:):
thats cm tho,there roms (afaik) arent optimized for speed,more of "stability" ;P
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
Well of course you'd see improvement with cm. Switching to -O3 optimization and using the linaro toolchain will do that, and so will fstrict-aliasing (even you don't fix any of the errors it causes and ignore them). Everything else he adds is questionable. If you really want to see if his extra cflags work try only changing the cflags to -O3 and adding the strict aliasing stuff.

However, I'd still strongly suggest not using fstrict-aliasing, Wstrict-aliasing=3 and Wno-error=strict-aliasing together and change it to Werror=strict-aliasing and simply adding local cflags of fno-strict aliasing everywhere there is an error.

You could also look through different githubs for the actual fixes though (There are plenty of roms that have those fixes, you just need to find them).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MWisBest:
Exactly. A major ROM like CyanogenMod, OmniROM, and of course AOSP are all going to be built more conservatively (but more reliably). The more rewarding (but riskier) optimization stuff is generally left to the smaller, more device-specific ROMs like FML, where it isn't such a problem to test and make sure changes like these don't cause problems. Every device configuration is going to have its quirks when it comes to stuff like this, and when a ROM supports lots of devices with nightly builds and stuff like that it isn't feasible to make sure all of them come out OK.

Even just slapping on -O3 flags without switching toolchains or anything else will result in quite an improvement for any ROM!

This, a thousand times this.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MWisBest:
I should be getting a new build out sometime today or tomorrow. Once that's out I'll try getting builds for maguro up and running.

EDIT: Wow this new build is looking nice. Very vroom.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MWisBest:
Um, guys, this new build is flying. By far the fastest FML build ever, if not Galaxy Nexus ROM ever (I've certainly not tried other ROMs, but considering that it is mostly agreed that this is a fast ROM and then seeing the improvements from this build...).

Tomorrow I'll start working on getting maguro building, after seeing this build I just can't wait to get it up and running on the most used Galaxy Nexus version...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Shadow Death:
Would this happen to be the FML that you just posted a little while ago? 5/26?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rice923:
I'm also curious about this too. I assume the 5-26 build on the OP is the "faster" improved build. Anyhow, doesn't hurt to try. DLing and flashing!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MWisBest:
Yes it's the 5/26 build. I edited my post to say "this new build is flying" to clarify.

One area that is MUCH faster is Dalvik. I don't think ART is even needed anymore at this point.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rice923:
I've honestly had spotty luck with ART anyways. Just go right back to dalvik would be your recommendation?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MWisBest:
I'd recommend at least giving it a try to those who have been using ART.

One thing to note is that I kinda figured out why sometimes the device will seem kinda slow after flashing a new build or after switching from Dalvik to ART: The device just gets too damn hot. When it compiles all the apps with ART it takes quite some time, and during that time the device gets so hot that it starts getting "throttled" to cool it down. So before you judge the speed of ART or Dalvik, make sure you've given the device some time to cool off!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Shadow Death:
I'll have to toy around with it later. I had data issues where it would show 3G in orange and never turn to white. I get off at 3CDT so I'll mess around with it then. It was definitely fast.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MWisBest:
After the first boot it took a minute or so for data to come up. I was concerned and I checked in "Settings --> About Phone --> Status" and it didn't even show my phone number etc., just said "Unknown". Ever since that first boot it's been smooth sailing on subsequent boots however. I'll try and snag a logcat of it to make sure it's not something serious, but the speed improvements outweigh that small little issue right now. I honestly wouldn't doubt a 2x speed improvement, and that's on top of the improvements over stock already. It's just sooooo smooth!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Brad92:
Definitely seems to be faster than the last few builds. I'll have to let it settle in to see how battery life is. Great job!

Quick question, is there a long press back button kill option on this ROM? I can't find it, but I may be stupid lol

Also wondering if you have any plans to incorporate theme chooser in this? That would make this ROM perfect IMO. I still love it though
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MWisBest:
Thanks!

"Long press back to kill app" can be found in Settings --> Bars, however it seems like it's not working again... coulda sworn that was fixed a while ago.

The theme engine is currently on OmniROM's Gerrit Code Review, usually I tend to just wait until things get officially merged because then I can be certain of its stability.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Brad92:
Thank you sir. Looks like I had it checked before and its not working, so I can confirm that on my end.

The problem is that I was in my office where, for whatever reason, Verizon doesn't reach. As soon as I stepped outside later I got instant 4G connection.

They removed the one up north for whatever reason so now I don't get **** for reception 1 mile from my house.
