I thought it odd not to have to do a hard reset as left out in tutorial. I should have done it out of habit from flashing kaiser, and fuze, but no. I did not hard reset. I will try a new flash and do the reset this time. Hopefully thats all thats the problem! thank you very much, and cross your fingers for me lol. If it works I will def keep my word on 20!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Toleraen:
Just to help troubleshoot after you hard reset just install whichever keyboard cab you're using, soft reset, and test it out before installing anything or syncing.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] DaIn BrAmAgE:
thank you thank you thank you!

I cant believe thats all it was! Even more so I cant believe I didn even try the H R after flash. I never once failed to do this when flashing any other device, I guess b/c it was in the directions for noobs to do so in other forums, lol may ought to suggest adding it to the dir for flashing tp2 lol!

THANK YOU BIGTIME, once again! I had become frustrated after tryin multi cabs and reading where it worked for everyone else. all i did was re flashed, h-reset. cab was in uc folder, but that didn work, ended up using att provisioning provided by NRG, and there she was...working like a charm again!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Toleraen:
Glad to hear it worked! Thanks for following up to, you're the first person with this issue I've tried helping that actually posted a followup.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] armada78:
I have a strange problem. I connect to the internet using Nimbuzz and Opera mini via GPRS easily with no problems but when I try using Market, default browser, Widgets and utils like goggles,barcode reader, etc, it wont connect and comes up with a connection error message.

Why? what should I do?

BTW, I am in Iran, using Irancell-GPRS provided settings.

Any help would be extremely appreciated.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] damentz:
Hello everyone,

I'm the maintainer of the Liquorix kernels for Debian / Ubuntu in the linux world. By default, this kernel is setup to use BFS, plus all the other patches from zen-sources and a finely tuned configuration to reduce overhead and increase throughput / reduce latency.

I recently bought the Nexus One to replace my old phone and have been fumbling around the forums, just looking around and putting on mods like Cyanogen. Just skimming through the selection of kernels, I'm very surprised.

How come CFS is still the scheduler of choice? Many users have exclaimed in posts about the increase in speed and fluidity - very much the same reaction for users switching to my kernels on Debian. The only developer here using BFS seems to be kingslick, but I don't know which version of the kernel he's using exactly, it just says 2.6.33 even though 2.6.33.2 is out per the day of this posting.

How come there has been a slow uptake on the BFS scheduler? Is it difficult to patch, not enough feed back, instability, etc... ???
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dictionary:
That would explain why his kernels always seem lightning quick, lol.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jlevy73:
Where do you see King using BFS. In his Nexus Desire Rom he states in the OP he has switched back to CFS
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RaistlinMaje:
if i remember correctly atleast when I was using the g1 bfs was causing instability issues, I dont think i've heard anything about bfs on the nexus so I cant say one way or the other why it isn't used more often.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] persiansown:
BFS used to be good on the ARM architecture, but not anymore. Its instable and actually slows down the phone.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] damentz:
which version is unstable? Since the 300 series of BFS, the final stability bugs were fixed AFAIK.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] persiansown:
and the 300 series runs poorly on our phones
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dogiedogie:
*puts up hand* whats bfs?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobtentpeg:
BFS = Brain **** Scheduler. It controls the CPU and other processes at the kernel level

Where can I find a forum thread discussing this? I've been only seeing good things, not bad.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brut.all:
http://www.google.com/search?q=BFS+site:xda-developers.com

As you can see there were many BFS roms earlier (3xx version too), but nearly all developers switched back to CFS cause of stability problems.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] damentz:
I'm seeing a lot of ports to 2.6.29 for BFS. If those are amateur ports, I would expect instability and unpredictable bugs.

BFS is always moving forward and the newer versions are based off of the currently stable kernel, in this case, 2.6.33 at the time of this posting.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pjcforpres:
Pretty much every single Kernel developer has given BFS a go, and all of them have had the same end result. Even Cyanog and pershoot.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] persiansown:
I generally talk about it in IRC
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] damentz:
I spoke with Con about the poor performance post 200 series on these Android phones, and he said that he wasn't aware of anything changed since then.

...but also, no one had brought these bugs to his attention, so nothing got fixed.

If anyone's willing to maintain a BFS kernel for android with the newest upstream code, I can test it and try to identify what the problem might be. There's a very large potential for performance to increase on the android platform if BFS becomes the optimal choice - we cannot let this slip unnoticed!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lbcoder:
BFS is poorly suited to android.

Reason is this:

Android has a timeout function -- when an application takes too long to respond, it issues an "application not responding" dialog. This includes BACKGROUND processes. BFS, of course, favors FOREGROUND processes, so when you have a foreground process sucking up all the CPU (because BFS is unwilling to give over the necessary CPU time to the background processes), those background processes end up taking longer than the timeout allows, which means that any time you run a CPU intensive foreground process, all the background processes will go ANR.

CFS doesn't have this problem. Background processes will still get their fair share of CPU time.

Remember that these devices are PHONES first and foremost! If the phone rings, the process handling the phone ringing MUST be able to run in a sensible amount of time.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nedlinin:
I remember BFS on Cyanogen back with the G1. It actually did give a pretty quick feeling phone. Like others said, it had its stability issues though.

But, maybe you can talk one of the kernel devs (intersectRaven or Ivan or pershoot or someone) into maintaining a separate BFS kernel along with the ones they already do. They might turn it down as its alot of extra work.. but, you never know!

I'd be willing to test the kernels out on my phone if someone was willing to actively maintain one for testing.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] damentz:
That's dumb, CFS is the scheduler that is unfair. CFS uses a red black tree with interactivity heuristics to create a timeline for processes to run for a specific amount of time. BFS on the other hand uses deadlines to choose which process runs next, using absolutely no heuristics. The shortest deadline should run first unless a process with a lower nice value preempts it.

I would expect BFS to be more responsive with your tests, since no application should be starved from heuristics. That's why it also performs better with games and 3d applications, since the cpu time is given fairly and in steady amounts, allowing for a more enjoyable graphical experience.

BFS should also run much faster on slower cpus because it has very low execution runtime memory footprint. I remember when BFS was first starting, one of the lesser known difference between BFS and CFS were the cache misses on CPUs with low amounts of L2 cache. Of course, no one put these online since it was just fun to experiment with.

Yes, that would be cool. I'll also help with these kernels and get some of the most technically helpful bug reports to Con so these bugs can be fixed once and for all.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] intersectRaven:
Compiled a BFS kernel as per your request. It can be found on my MediaFire folder. Not really sure if BFS is active though since I only found one entry in menuconfig which is in the general section and not where I expected it to be (with CFQ and Deadline options). :o

*Just read more...I was confusing CFS with CFQ... :p
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nedlinin:
Have you given it a test run? What do you think about it so far? -- I'll load it up on my phone later tonight and see what ends up happening
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] damentz:
BFS kernel you made works great, running version 2.6.33_AVS-925mV_BFS_20100501_2319 (I was so lazy that I missed the FC bug by a day :P)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] intersectRaven:
Yes I have. Seems more responsive so far and no FCs or anything. It did have a little lag when the launcher was switching from portrait to launcher mode but the amount has been reduced in the 2319 build.

That's ok. Gave me enough time to sort out the FC thing by reading the official Android BFS implementation. There hasn't been anything done in it for quite *some* time though. :)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] damentz:
I can see why people stopped testing it, random unexplainable things are happening with this kernel; live wallpapers does not operate correctly, the helix launchers to not launch at all or immediately. I think I noticed my battery life reduced and my phone was running much warmer.

Oh well, I just tested 2.6.34-rc6 on my PC and CFS seems to have finally improved since it's initial problems in 2.6.30 since BFS' inception. Games finally run smooth while processes are running in the background - big thumbs up for me. I even got some reports that CFS' throughput is higher than BFS' in general for nearly every benchmark for 2.6.34.

The whole point of BFS was to actually show how simple a process scheduler can be, essentially highlight the deficiencies in CFS so that Ingo and everyone watching now had a control to test regressions against. Initially, CFS had terrible latency deadline overruns, problems keeping the processor busy - requiring many more threads than available CPUs to realize a computers maximum throughput, and behavior bugs which caused things like OpenGL games to jitter to the tiniest background noise (processes running in the background).

If that's all fixed, which appears so from my many minutes of testing with different games and work scenarios, then BFS should no longer be used.

However, it is good to know that there's some documentation now in the forums about this being tried and the bugs experienced :D

[General Questions and Answers] devilmangil73:
Ok so here is my new problem and maybe you can help me with this I am using my Mytouch 3G 32B Rooted of course and I'm using the KWG-noRH-try Rom no fancy SPL either. Dont know if thats a problem but I have the HBOOT-1.33.0006 (SAPP30000) CPLD-10 and Radio 2.22.23.02. I did everything in the special conditions with the 4ext and the swap using a class 6 8gb sd card and the Rom is running wonderful like daily use wonderful. I got the twitter widget going (this didn't work in th RamHacked version) and all my live widgets are running fine and rarely go into update after a page swipe. My problem is that I cannot send MMS but i can receive and download the MMS to view. When I attempt to send one i get a generic network failure prompt. Also it will continue to retry sending it. I also have trouble deleting the retry sending messages that keep failing unless i delete the whole message thread that they are on. There should be a way to long-press the sending message and delete or stop sending option. Is this a common problem is there someway to resolve this. I can do with out Bluetooth. but without outgoing MMS this is a huge problem!! So far everything else in this rom is awesome. Except for the Incoming Caller ID lag and the photo album live widget losing its place and returning to the first pic in the album instead of remembering my selected photo on reboot. So is there something i need to add in the Terminal or a patch i need to install. Also I'm not quite sure how to flash something over the rom. It took alot to get this rom flashed alot of wiping and sd card formating and 3 battery pulls and re flashes. Lol. This is the Rom I want to use daily but these issues make me want to just flash a non fancy rom for everyday use. Sence UI is keeping me here and the overall look and speed of the rom lifts the Rom builder bar. So can someone PM me or list in this thread possible solutions

My idea of flashing something over a rom is adding the fix to the root of your SD card and going into recovery mode and flash the data with out doing a data wipe...is this true.

thank you for reading this.

[Windows Mobile Themes] Livven:
The Metro look of Windows Phone 7 is quite popular, because of its extreme simplicity and cleanness. No unnecessary effects like drop-shadows, gradients, beveled edges, but only plain black, white and different shades of grey.

This is a dialer which imitates the WP7-style. Remember it's not final, for example the in-call screen hasn't been skinned yet.

WVGA version for HTC phones (like HD2, Touch Pro2, Diamond2, HD etc.) released herehttp://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=676957

​

Because it is based off the "EtPhone.dll", which originated from some old E-TEN phone, it only supports QVGA.

Feedback and suggestions are welcome!

Instructions

Download this TouchFLO 2D dialer or Minimal dialer and install it first. This step is necessary because the in-call screen isn't skinned yet, so those CABs will give you some alternate graphics to make this skin usable. Then install the acctached CAB and soft-reset.
[Windows Mobile Themes] PayAndDie:
Woww that looks really great :D I was hoping that someone could make such a dailer :) nice work! can´t wait for wqvga.
[Windows Mobile Themes] AngryNil:
I was looking at the image files for the 6.5.x dialer, and gave up.

Looks like this EtPhone dialer is much lighter than Phone Canvas, which is always good for older devices.

Best of luck.
[Windows Mobile Themes] teorouge:
Great work, Livven. Hope you'll have some time to make a VGA version of HTC's...
[Windows Mobile Themes] PayAndDie:
Hi,

have you start with this project :)?
[Windows Mobile Themes] AngryNil:
I reckon the greatest advantage of the WP7 styling is that it's perfectly compatible.

WM6 is only 16-bit coloured, complex themes will not look fantastic. Poor support for true transparency means sharp corners work well too.
[Windows Mobile Themes] ai6908:

So apart from the graphics issues, it's working (you can touch the buttons and make calls)? Could you make a screenshot so I can see? I think it should be possible to make it WQVGA-compatible.

Same for you.

What fix? I never had to call an emergency... :p
[Windows Mobile Themes] Biglittlewhateva:

@ Livven...

Great stuff. As of now the only thing I see that is "off" is the end call button needs a tweak. Outside of that this is great and I'll be looking forward to future versions. I'm using Antondas WP7 theme and it's fits perfectly. Keep up the awesome job on this. ;)

any updates on the in call screen skinning???? dialer looks great
[Windows Mobile Themes] ZaLiTHkA:
This is gorgeous... I love the simplicity of this dialer. :) Can't wait to see what the in call screen looks like.

Out of curiosity, is there any plan to include the SmartDial feature? It's not really essential, but it is a nifty little feature of the WM dialer.

Also for QVGA I assume...? I'm also interested in that; pretty much everything else in my phone theme is black and white, so that would fit perfectly... :D Post it please?
[Windows Mobile Themes] Livven:
Strange, probably no way to fix this as I'm just replacing some graphics.

Sorry guys, I don't think I'll continue this project anymore. Tired of WM...

Dialer Not working in Landscape Mode and Not Very Stable

Love the look so I loaded the PdG Minimal dialier (clean) and the Metro dialer. Problem is the dialer isn't working in landscape mode and it doesn't seem to be very stable.

If I open the phone in landscape mode the image is corrupted and can't be used.

In portrait, when I begin to dial out either by touch or stylus, the dial pad goes away and I am back on the Home screen.

Any ideas?
