[HTC Sensation] hinxnz:
Thanks :) it's not possible to adjust max screenoff freq. as it's not supported by kernel. Max screenoff isn't 192MHz though it's 1026MHz.

The RIL's are from the Sensation and the Ville C2. You won't lose mobile signal changing RIL's with this method as with the traditional HTC RIL's from the Radio/RIL thread, they contain other non compatible files that cause network loss.

Default is ok to choose in Venom Tweaks for button backlight. I choose 30 in mod, as I like it dim when it comes on in the dark.
[HTC Sensation] TheWall-[ITA]:
Just flashed the zip: changed my RIL and dimmed capacitive buttons. Awesome job :victory:

Can you explain how various CPU throttling methods work? Are they related to some governor, or are they simply different versions of the "ondemand"?

Thanks again :cowboy:
[HTC Sensation] hinxnz:
They tweak the ondemand governor.

- With the performance and power saving options, it adjusts things like the up threshold and sampling rates.

- With performance plus and power saving plus options, it basically has the same tweaks as performance and power saving options but also tweaks other frequencies such as two phase freq.

I could add an option to change the governor though but we only have ondemand, userspace, powersave and performance.
[HTC Sensation] TheWall-[ITA]:
Nice :good:

I think you don't need to add the option to change governor: ondemand is the only one which is really useful. ;)
[HTC Sensation] hinxnz:
First post updated with v1.0.2 :cool:

- See changelog for more details.
[HTC Sensation] -Jonny-:
Nice update, couple of questions though, I'm currently using Multi Swap at 60%

1. Will this clash - ie, do I need to uninstall multi swap?

2. Can I change your swapiness to 60% to have same configuration?
[HTC Sensation] hinxnz:
1 - Yes but when you install the Lite version, it will remove your existing MultiSwap installation anyway.

2 - The swappiness is set to 20 in the lite version and is recommended but yeah you can change it by either editing the init.d script or flashing the swappiness tweak again.

Edit: I may add swappiness options in a future release. Something like 10, 20, 40, 60.

I do find 20 is a good value though as swap doesn't fill to quickly and completely in most heavy RAM situations but it's there when needed and no decrease in performance noticeably what so ever.

network response problem

Hi,

I've a weird issue with rom sense : network responsiveness is very bad with rom sense like ViperS 5.1.0.

I've not this issue with a non sense rom (unorom, carbonrom...). Everything app open quickly. But it's very long with a sense rom.

So this mod can help me or not?

I give my RIL (if ti's the source of my issue) : 11.76C.3504.00P_11.29A.3504.18_M

Thanks
[HTC Sensation] TheWall-[ITA]:
That's not you RIL, that's your RADIO. Using this mod you can try a different RIL. Try the 4.0.0037 and see how it goes.
[HTC Sensation] [Legenda]:
Ahh my radio!! good thought. I'm dl the mod and i'll try!

I keep you in touch.

EDIT : I think my issue is over. The network responsiveness is quick with my apps like Twitter.

Thanks :)
[HTC Sensation] me_death:
Thank you

Thank you for this awesome mod.Once again my network is strong as it used to be . :good:
[HTC Sensation] TheWall-[ITA]:
Guys, what's the best RIL version for you?

For me, on 4.0.0037 signal seems to be stronger and mobile network a bit faster, but I notice hangouts is having troubles to send long messages (SMS, not internet chat). I tried other SMS apps, but the result is similar... what about you? :)
[HTC Sensation] me_death:
I tried 4.0.0013 and currently i am on 4.0.0017,both gave me nearly same results.The later being a little bit better in my case
[HTC Sensation] TheWall-[ITA]:
Can you try to send a long SMS? I mean a SMS which is longer than the limit for a single text. It's like the phone can't divide it in 2 or more parts and the delivery fails. I tried the 4.0.0024 and it doesn't solve the issue. Going to try 4.0.0017

EDIT:

I understood what my problem is. When a message is longer then 160 chars hangouts and other apps will try to convert it to a MMS, which doesn't work on my network, I tried to configure them but nothing. I tried Textra app which lets me split up long messages in multiple parts and it works good. So the problem is not RIL related.
[HTC Sensation] hinxnz:
First post updated with v1.0.3 :cool:

- Fixed the startup script for swap so it's compatible with the new version of busybox that comes with ViperS v5.2.0
[HTC Sensation] -Jonny-:
Is it possible to see what settings I have chosen. For example, I may want to change button brightness, but being forgetful I can't remember what I set it to last time. As you add more stuff there's more for me to forget. I was hoping it would show me all this on 'system information', just a though that perhaps it could be added here?
[HTC Sensation] hinxnz:
When running the aroma installer again the previous options you choose beforehand should be still checked.

Adding info to System Infomation wouldn't be ideal because you can't add extra fields, so if you adding something it would be under Hardware Info - Processor for example.
[HTC Sensation] [Legenda]:
I've the same problem as you.

Once my SMS is too long (a send = 2 sms sometimes) that doesn't work. Not try for MMS.

No alternativ solution? Except Textra?

Even with Textra, always have the problem :(
[HTC Sensation] blogodoblogodo:
Hi all, i have not already try this one..

HTCBatMan is here

This probably a little bug, meanwhile, some of others users have not this issue.

Is it general issue or just if u haven't CLean install it ????

Thanks for regards
[HTC Sensation] [Legenda]:
It's a clean install. I've just change my radio to have a better and faster network responsivness.

It's works if I install the stock radio.

I tried to put off the battery and put back . Not working. I know that initially it has Android 4.3 on it.

I do not have warranty :(

Can anyone tell me some solutions ? Thanks !

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xieon1:
Hey XDA, I'm hoping you guys will be able to help me out with a problem I'm having, and it's been driving me nuts, and it's caused some very embarrassing moments, and some awkward situations.

OS:
I'm running Android 2.3.6
Phone: LG Connect (Similar to the Viper I think? At least that's how it got unlocked).
Rooted & Unlocked
Running stock Gingerbread
Carrier: Metro PCS
App's causing the problem: Facebook & What appears to be a sound file.

Recreating the problem:

When I get a new notification from the Facebook app that I've gotten a message, and it shows the FB message in the notification area, the introduction for Alex Jones starts playing. For those who know it "Government Coverups, Conspiarcies, He's Alex Jones on the Genesis Radio Network. And here's your hose Alex Jones" or something like that.

A bigger problem is when I have a message, and my phone dies/turns off. When I turn it back on, since that message is still there it starts playing then people are looking at me weird while my phone is yelling about government coverups.

I'm assuming there is an audio file that somehow got switched with this Alex Jones "virus" audio file, so instead of playing the normal FB sound, it plays Alex Jones.

Does anyone know where FB keeps their notification sounds. I've been looking but can't find the culprit. I don't have any Alex Jones software either.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Dave/Xieon

P.S: Root is required to launch the secret codes.

Neither method worked for me - sm-g900f
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] gspears:
I don't understand. The G900F is unlocked from Samsung isn't it? Why would you need to unlock it?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] lostunsunghero:
Got mine from vodafone on contract, i'm abroad at the moment and tried a local sim but got the sim locked message. Normally vodafone have given me unlocked phones so i didn't think to ask them to unlock it (which the do for free, vodafone UK at least)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] gspears:
I see. So some carriers take the G900F model and lock it. I thought that might be the case. Sorry about that. What a pain. Good luck with it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] lingowistico:
You're thinking about it's bootloader being unlocked, sim-lock is still present if you buy it on contract from a carrier.

On a sidenote, I remember when the S2 came out all you needed was root and a free app from play store. Why hasn't a free app been released for the S5?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] gspears:
Thank you but no I definitely understand the difference between a locked bootloader and a sim locked phone. I got rid of a AT&T S5 and got a TMO phone because the TMO S5 doesn't have a locked bootloader whereas the G900A (AT&T's) S5 does.

Then of course I had to sim unlock the TMO phone so it would work with my AT&T sim card.

All the G900Fs (we call it the international version) sold in the U.S. are unlocked but I didn't stop to think that some carriers outside the U.S. might lock them to their network.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] lingowistico:
It's like this: the 900f is the main S5 model in europe. As such bought on a lengthy contract +12 months you'll get it simlocked 99% percent of the time. That's how it goes here in europe: lengthy contract=simlock :) If you cash for it with no contract then you will get it unlocked. So it's not some carriers it's absolutely most carriers. That's the norm here. Except for some minority underdog carriers
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] IMEI_Bandit:
don't be cheap lol

There are plenty of online companies that will unlock the s5 remotely. No code needed and takes about 10 minutes. You dont have to worry about losing the unlock status when an update comes out.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] gspears:
I like to use the service that gives me the unlock codes. That way I have them if for some reason it get's locked again (which I've never seen happen.) Plus they give you a provider code, sub provider and one other. I have no idea what these are for, but I have them.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] kachmul2004:
you dont get such codes on samsung android. s5 codes cost 20$ upwards
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] gspears:
I have unlocked 2 G900's and received all those codes with each unlock. I used swiftunlock and it cost 19.99. It was not swift, but the codes were correct and it was not too expensive.

ok :/
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] arcturus78:
I bought a G900F with SIM locked from Spain without carrier contract and I wanted the code from Samsung Spain. They send me the code after 10 days. If you dont want to pay and ıf you can wait try to get the code from Samsung.

Did you call them or did you send them an e-mail?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] arcturus78:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] kibmikey1:
After spending a great deal of time with this, half reading xda, half trial and error, I can say that pretty much the only way to accomplish this (atm) is to either call TMO for the codes after sufficient time, or pay for one of the several online services (posted, see prev. pages) if you need it right away. SHA is on lockdown, and there is just no getting to it through the menus. I will continue on with it, and update if something happens with it, but I'm not holding my breath on this one.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] villa_bryan:
I don't know if this will work for the American models, but I'm using a Japanese s5 and was able to unlock it.

does the *#*#9090#*#* method not work for you guys?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] kibmikey1:
No, the process is 0011, back, Q, 0000 to get to the main menu. There is no UMTS menu. The only mention of SHA at all is in the information menu, which of course can't be modified. I did manage to enable CA though, but I'm not sure TMO even supports that either. Short of decompiling, which I'm not even sure would work, I can't see any other way to unlock it ourselves.

Recently purchased the unlock services, through this thread some member choosing swiftunlock services, i choose one of their serviceswith 24H times, after 24H there's no response, no email about the code, is anyone here has their email or anything else to contact them??

OrdinaryNoob
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] gspears:
Sounds like something is really wrong. I've used swiftunlock.com many times and every time received an email just after purchasing showing that they received my payment and then received an email showing that they have generated the code and then received an email showing the code.

So if you haven't received any emails, then there is an issue. I used the cheapest ($19.99) service so it generally took a couple of days to get the code, but it did always come. That's why I stated earlier that it was by no means "swift". I'm at work now but if you are still not receiving anything from them, PM me your email address and I'll forward one of their emails to you so you will have all of their information.

Good Luck!

Really surprised that there isn't yet a hack for the S5. There were no many options with the S4, that it's perplexing to see everything fail for the S5.

Those purchasing unlock codes and getting codes that don't work - I'm 99% sure that the service you're using isn't scamming you. I actually did a research project in school a few semesters back which touched on the smartphone component industry and dug into the SIM unlocking process a bit. Most of the unlock services pay for access to external databases and are simply middle men in the while process. Some have automated systems which take your order, process it through an API that taps into these databases and then email out the results. Others are simple with manual order processing and some guy in the middle doing all the work. Either way, the services have no clue if the code they are passing on actually works. If you get a wrong code and ask for a refund, they have to get the refund approved from their vendor before they give you your money back.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] gspears:
I've purchased many different codes from them for both S4s and S5s and have not had one fail yet, thank God. Sorry you had issues. Did you get your money back?
