ok i think iv killed my m600

i flashed it with the older imate rom the 1.0.9 version

it installed 100% and rebooted and from ther it was stuck on the imate screen for like 10 minutes and i see the following text in red on the top left corner

---------------------

IPL 2.10.0001

SPL 2.15.0001

GSM 01.14.20

OS 1.0.9.25

-------------------------

i tried removing the battery and restarting the fone. still the same thing. can someone please please please help me with this?

what do i do?

im sure orange wont help me out since i flashed it with a non-orange rom.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] funky_Saggi:
never mind fixed itby goin into the bootloader
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] crossy4life:
hi there i seem to have the same problem as you with the boot screen. top left corner say's

IPL 2.10.0001

SPL 2.10.0001

GSM 02.07.20

OS 1.0.13.21

can you please tell me how you fixed yours please it would be a great help:D
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] binky11:
What you could do is flash it with an newer rom

Hold camera button AND reset (be asure that it hold it while resetting)

Then... you are in you bootloader... connect the PDA with your PC..it will recognized it!

Then run the romupdate ;-)
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] crossy4life:
Hi thanks for trying to help me i got my phone in to the 3 colour screen but my computer does not pic it up at all. is there another way to save my M600
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] kta:
Aren't you getting "USB" written in the bottom left corner of the 3 colour screen when you connect it to USB?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] crossy4life:
Yes i get the USB come up at the bottom of the screen my computer does not do anything. can you tell me which ROM i will need as the ones i have to run the ROM update but it comes back saying connect to ActiveSync which i can not do is there a way round this?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] crossy4life:
Final got my SPV M600 Working with the ROM from the download area thanks for the help anyway

cheers:D :D
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] insanonut:

Great insight... Thank you Bbro
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cun7:
It would also be worth mentioning, that in my own personal testing, interactive spends less time overall in higher frequency steps, and the result in the UI is still the same - very fluid with no latency or stuttering. There is so much power wasted when using the ondemand governor. It just isn't as responsive or fine tuned when it comes to your interaction with the device.

Interactive performs when it needs to, and settles down when it doesn't. But more importantly it does this more accurately/appropriately than any other. Why it isn't the default setting on mobile platforms is beyond my understanding. ondemand is "tried and true", I get that, but it just isn't efficient. There are better ways to skin a cat.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Vinsane:
Thanks For this! What's your insight regarding Schedulers and it's settings?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cun7:
On these devices, noop or deadline. Nothing else performs as optimally or logical for a device that does not having a "moving mechanism" disk for IO.

ROW seems to be one that I have seen popping into some kernel builds as of the last year or so. Why? I honestly don't know. This IO scheduler is terrible for a device that does read AND write operations regularly. Giving one a higher priority makes absolutely no sense. Performance suffers under heavy load where you have smaller read operations being given higher priority on the disk over a large write operations. As with anything, there needs to be balance, not just a one size fits only 1 when there are two more needing to be fitted, make sense?

Deadline in my opinion is the best overall because it makes an attempt to prioritize which operations get served first based upon their calculated "need", and services them accordingly - again here we see the time being the carefully calculated variable and not some other factor. deadline says "hey do this one over here, it is going to be the most taxing on CPU and is therefore more important to the user experience"...

noop is a solid one as well, and much simpler. It processes any and all tasks AS THEY COME IN. Meaning, as an operation is requested, so is it done. This scheduler also has a very unique attribute over deadline because noop can merge requests together and run them through the pipe at the same time. The only drawback to noop is in fact it's merging - performance can suffer when there is a lot going on because there is no priority given to this over that.

My experience has been that you cannot go wrong with either, but I personally prefer deadline and in some instances I have actually seen noop's weakness rear it's head through my interaction with the device, then switched to deadline and seen that scheduler handle that same set of tasks with less hiccups.

noop is also slighty (and by slightly I mean theoretically because I have never seen the difference in battery represented at the end of the day in my battery life) easier on the battery because of the merging function. It requires less CPU to process a merged task than it would two separate tasks. Theory of course...

I use deadline pretty religiously myself, and performance is what I am seeking with it. All the other hybrid frankenstein IO schedulers out there simply don't square up - sio, vr, bfq, cfq, fifo, lifo row... They all have some weird parameter that simply just lacks the logic to apply to flash memory applications, or android, etc.

Deadline is simple, straight forward, and extremely effective. That is all.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] themichael:
Great explanation. I am surprised you don't like sio though. Its basically noop when it comes to fcfs and request merging but adds deadlines for fairness helping cut down on those times where noop can be detrimental.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cun7:
Actually, sio isn't bad. It is just kind of one of those frankenstein IO schedulers in my opinion. In this scheduler we have start service requests (a deadline function) but with no sorting of requests.... it's like noop with a timer, kind of a redundant scheduler because was is the point of setting a deadline on a task if the scheduler is still using a FCFS logic? You still can suffer on large operations because the scheduler has no ability to organize, it can only "rush from A to B" for lack of a better way to describe it. Analyze/organize/timer, execute, check timer, rinse and repeat... and none of those really have to be in that order for the deadline scheduler to be efficient!

sio is basically deadline without the ability to sort ques. Although I would put it equal to noop.

Also, deadline does have the ability to merge small sorted requests. It's just like... a 20 trick pony. That's why I use it pretty much exclusively.

When I was working on the Gingerbread project for the Nexus S, myself and 3 of my colleagues had a short discussion over some subway about which IO scheduler to set as default in the Nexus S kernel. Deadline made the most sense for Android at the time. It still does in my opinion, nothing has changed since then in terms of what else is available.

SIO is not bad, however. I would even say use it over noop, but you won't really see any real performance increase from it. The two are still =
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] themichael:
Great, very convincing. My last question would be, what kind of overhead is required to sort the requests as deadline does. Is it still more desirable than the simplicity of FCFS.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cun7:
The "sorting" is very minimal overhead. Basically deadline ques are sorted by their expiration time (their deadline) and their sector number. I'll try to explain this without making it sound too confusing...

Before a operation request is served it decides which queue needs attention first. Read requests by default actually have more priority but not ALL (this why ROW is weak) and are given a deadline of 500 ms versus 5 seconds for a write request.

What happens is the deadline scheduler checks if the FIRST request in the deadline queue has expired, if it has not, then it simply processes the sorted "sector batch".

Does that make sense? Basically what happens is each request is given a pre-defined deadline, and it simply checks to see if they are being processed in the time specified in the tunables write_expire and read_expire.

Too tell you what time it is without explaining how to build a clock, I'll just answer your question: Very little overhead is needed to operate this scheduler.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] themichael:
Great. Love it. I'll give this a try. I have always liked the philosophy behind deadline anyway.

Dude awesome write up. Just learned a lot with this knowledge. 1 question what are your thoughts on Zen IO Scheduler
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] moSess:
Great observations.

Question:

What Rom/kernel combo do you have, currently?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cun7:
flak0 - I don't know enough about "zen" to give you an opinion on it. Maybe find some technical info and post it here?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] steezmyster:
OP, what do you think about the multicore power saving option & MP-Descision? The multicore power saving option in the beast mode Kernel tries to group tasks on the least amount of cores to save battery. What I'm wondering is if it's actually worth it, because I'm not sure, but I think if tasks are being limited to 1 core than the cpu spends more time completing the task than if I left it off so isn't that worse for my battery life? & I've never really understood the whole MP-Descision thing, in the past I'd just disable it if the kernel had intelli-plug but should I leave it on if there's no intelli-plug option? I hope you clear some of this up for me, thanks! :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cun7:
[MENTION=5523904]steezmyster[/MENTION]

The multi core power saving option is useful, and yes it does save power overall despite the fact that you are loading 1 or 2 cores a little more. This is all the more reason to use the snappy interactive governor rather than ondemand. High CPU load is handled quicker by jumping to a mid or high frequency.

In my opinion the mpdecision deamon is useless. You will get better performance and more accurate load handling by simply allowing the CPU drivers to do their job. More responsive and less "spiking".

I have not been using mpdecision since I got my Note 3. I get great battery life and performance.

Keep it simple. Don't buy into all the buzz word hype mods that many throw around. They typically are more detrimental to performance than beneficial.

I'll add to this post later when I get back. I'm on the road now and talking to type out this reply.

Where do I go to set the kernal to the settings like yours.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cun7:
Easiest way to do this is to use the trickster app.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] GSXR6:
My bad for beeing a noob, but this is 1st go-around using trickster. I been all over this app and I dont see anything like in his settings post.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cun7:
Screen "3" of the app at the very bottom. The tab that says "governor control"
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] GSXR6:
Thanks bruh, thats why I love XDA, yall the truth. I set those settings and my phone took off running down the hallway. Wit that being said, I already see the difference. Guess ill go buy a leash for my phone now. Thanx againn dude.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] elosogrande7076:
So using the Trickster app on the Beast Mode kernel....would you suggest setting MP Decision to "off" and Multcore Power saving to 0 or 2? Also, what do yous uggest for the Read Ahead buffer size?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cun7:
My own personal set up = no mpd, multi core power savings 2

Read ahead buffer size 1024

Which beast mode kernel?

I can't find mdp setting for trickster. ... I'm using stock kernel. .. And should I set gpu to interactive to?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] ImEVO:
I don't think you can do anything with a stock kernel. You need to flash one of freeza kernels or lean kernel. Sorry bud
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] djtheraven:
Stock kernel has all the settings stated above. ..I have selected interactive and changed all the values. .. On faux123 there is a mdp setting but I can't find it on trickster. .. And I want to use trickster... And what about gpu.?..I have an interactive setting for that too.. Would that be better also?

Nevermind I can't change gpu to interactive. .. It don't stick

Why don't you flash a different kernel?

I don't see any of those settings when I go into governor control
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cun7:
You are rooted? What kernel are you on? And did you set the governor to interactive?

They should be there. The /sys/*/cpu/interactive/* directory is writable to you - trickster should see it.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mrgrey44:
Hello everyone, I have a question and I am no tech guy so please bear with me.

I have the unlocked HTC One 810e, I currently live in the U.S. and my carrier is AT&T, but I didn't buy the device from AT&T, I bought it back when I was in the middle east. Anyway, the current version of android I have is 4.3 and I have been patiently waiting for 4.4 to arrive, I've been reading lots of articles and blogs where people say that their unlocked HTC Ones have received 4.4. I've been checking for updates everyday and I haven't received anything yet. My question is, is there any way to trick my phone (I know that sounds a bit silly) into thinking we're somewhere besides the U.S.? Will that help me get the update?

Also, with the last two software updates (from 4.1), I have received a (I think 1 megabyte) update that said that there was some sort of bug and that was the reason I wasn't able to receive the update sooner, and after I updated the bug situation, I got the software updates immediately. Do you think this is the situation now?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clsA:
AT&T 4.4 update is due out any day now ...if after it's released you still don't get updated I would consider taking other steps to get to 4.4
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mrgrey44:
I don't think you read my rant thing. My phone is the unlocked version, I didn't buy it from AT&T. But, what do you mean by "other steps to get to 4.4"?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clsA:
Your service is from AT&T the update will come from AT&T

The other path is unlocking the bootloader, flashing custom recovery and a custom Rom (4.4.2 sense 5.5 )

I have a Nextbook7P12-8G. It was rooted using the Impactor method and had Shaunmt modified 3e recovery installed. I was trying to put a CWM recovery on using instructions I had found on the web. It involved using the Amlogic Flash tool. It failed.

When I turn the tablet now, It goes straight to the green Android guy with the rotating belly image and a status bar running across the bottom of the screen. Nothing else happens. It will not boot into recovery. I have to hold the power button for about 10 seconds before it turns off. I am lost. What options do I have? Any ideas? I have Shaunmt's stock rom zip and his recovery zip as well. I also have my wife's tablet (same make and model.) Her's is working fine and it is rooted but it has a stock rooted rom and original 3e recovery. Help!

PREAMBLE

This is SlimBean for locked bootloaders. Just to clarify, I'm not responsible for anything, neither for soft or hardbricked, nor for anything else. :D

Please, do not post feature requests or bug reports here, use DevDB instead, thanks.

As always, this ROM is not a ZIP-port, it has been compiled from source (see my sources).

WORKING/NOT WORKING

It probably has the same bugs as CM10 for LB.

FEATURES

This ROM is very lightweight (only 113 MB) and it also has very nice additions (see my screenshots).

Please visit the SlimROMs homepage for more information, the special "SlimGAPPs" and much more. :)

You need to remove the first couple of lines from Meta-Inf/com/google/android/update-script where the software calls for LT28h. Because your phone is LT28i, flashing does not proceed...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Olivier:
Can somebody please list all Xperia Ion variants? I can then add them to the updater-script by default.

BTW, if somebody is interested... Here you can find some nice add-ons (untested).
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] optimumpro:
They are LT28h, LT28i and LT28at. But I think it will be best just to remove the first lines and start with ui-print....

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Najuto9tail:
from your opinion which is the best rom in battery life and performance until now?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] optimumpro:
I think it is clearly Slimbean, the lightest, but gives you a lot of options including many tweak options (embedded in settings app) and dual pane. It also gives you the largest ram (I had 395 mb on start). All CM based roms sleep well if properly patched.

Original FM app gives error and force closes in CM10 rom by [MENTION=5031348]MrGezz[/MENTION] and other releases of djolivier doesn't come with FM app.

Only gap of giving up stock based rom (I'm Aoba black fan of u) is the fm radio unavailability and "call waiting of other party doesn't show when originating the call" issue of CM10. Hoping a good reply. :)
