Hi!!

I Actually run Debian on my Milestone thanks to tuto above. But I want Ubuntu. Somebody knows ubuntu arm repositories urls in order to create a .img file like the tuto said?.

Thanks!!

Why not run Ubuntu x86 inside a QEMU version for Android? :P
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] dstruct2k:
I realize this is a necropost, but I think it makes more sense than starting a new topic.

Neither of the suggested tutorials help because the Milestone kernel doesn't support loop devices. Is there another way to get Ubuntu running?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] WiateR:
You need ROM with kernel with support loop devices. Older versions of MIUI (2.1.20 for example) support that. Try to find Ubuntu installer in Android Mrket / Play Store
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] dstruct2k:
I don't think any version of MIUI (or any other ROM) would have support for loop devices considering the fact that the Milestone's kernel cannot be swapped. Thanks for the reply though.

Hi,

tell me how to set normal wallpaper 480 x 800?

The same for every desk or various for every desk.

Gallery keeps cropping them and streching for all 7 desks and its sooo retarded.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] stickfinger:
Hi Dexter, The streching over 7 desks is part of Touchwiz and i think its just how it works. As for the cropping, when you choose the picture for wallpaper it puts a red box over the picture. Stretch that using 2 fingers to get most of your picture in shot then apply it
[Galaxy S I9000 General] larryccf:

I just did the facebook syncing to the htc sense contacts and im wondering is there any way to keep the default contact picture instead of it pulling up a facebook picture?
[Droid Eris General] loki154:
You should be able to unlink the google contact with the facebook contact under the people app. Just tap the chain in the upper right hand corner of the contact. I think it would default to the picture and not facebook.

Or another thought is to edit the contact and click the camera/picture and choose the picture you want to use.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jimmarn:
I am connecting it to my computer and all that happens is that it's going from home to kies then back and forth.... Anybody know about this? or a way to fix it?

Or is it normal and just takes forever to connect??

It's on the phone, the initializing is going to home, then back to usb thing, (kies) back to home, back to kies....... on the phone.. On Kies on the computer it's just waiting.

Here's a video of the stuff that is going on...

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryukent:
I had this problem too. It was caused because only in idle mode of the Samsung home launcher can keis connect. You may have installed a different launcher. Try the following:

Put use to keis mode in settings

download home switcher from the market

run home switcher an set touchwiz as default home

Reboot phone (task killing other launchers don't work for me.)

make you phone is in the home screen - press home to get there

now connect the cable with keis running on pc

sync everything you need to

In future I suggest you move all contact to Google so they sync over the air and you'll no longer need keis. crappy software!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jimmarn:
Thanks, didnt work i think, I never used kies, gave it up and un-installed it. All my contacts was google ;) But I thought I needed kies to get the phone connected. But after uninstall I figured I was wrong.

I agree, kies was crap.

i also had trouble connecting to kies.

I went to install Factbook from the market yesterday and it just got stuck on "Installing..." so i killed the app and tried again but had the same problem. I tried other apps and they all froze as well. Now i can't seem to install or uninstall any app and all the apps on my sd card refuse to work. If i go into the application manager and select an app, all the fields just sit at "Computing..." I was able to fix it once by clearing the cache in recovery, but now Factbook and the other apps i tried to install after it just sit in the market as Free but not installed. Trying to install any new app will make the installer/uninstaller crap out again. This sd card is brand new and i've had no problems with it until now. Anything I can try to fix it?

I'm currently testing out the fresh toast kernels on the DC 3.2.3 rom, I'll post back about my findings soon.

edit: So far it doesn't appear to be working with the DC rom. It's just hanging on boot. I'll give it a bit longer but its already

been sitting on the intial htc EVO 4g logo for 5 minutes.

edit2: I've been unable to get the DC Rom to boot with either of the fresh toast kernels. even with a data wipe. i'm going to try

again.. if anyone else gets it working please post.
[EVO 4G Android Development] madunix:
Does this have the fps uncap? N if so for which hardware?
[EVO 4G Android Development] OneStepAhead:
it does not. given the tearing problem that the toast + epson fps fix kernel has, at this point I just want a kernel

that will enable over/underclocking. the fresh toast kernel fills that niche.

No not at all man, no worries good to have a thread just for this rom. Flipz is doing some amazing work. I have installed a few roms and fresh has been the most stable for me. With this new kernel Rom for the first time I have seen a huge improvement in battery life. Can't wait to see what version 1 brings

If u wanna use my binary in dc or anything else ull have to extract the binary kernel from the boot.img and compile it with the ramdisk from the Rom u are going to flash it to. Also ill need to modify the ramdisk to run compache/ ramzswap scripts and grab the modules from the fresh toast build also. Add all that to ur build and flash the newly compiled boot.img and u should be toasted up :P

No Problems

No problems here - Flashed using Amon_RA recovery. Running Fresh 0.5.3 ROM.
[EVO 4G Android Development] persibro:
Quick question - I've been running the Fresh Toast kernal with BFS pretty nicely for about a day now, but I'm still unsure about a few things. How does the undervolting work? Is it automatic if I underclock the CPU, or is it always undervolted? Right now I have SetCPU set to a max of 1152.
[EVO 4G Android Development] OneStepAhead:
which one of the kernels are you using
[EVO 4G Android Development] OneStepAhead:
thanks, sounds like i have some more learning to do before I could pull something like that off. i'm unemployed at the moment so time is on my side :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] nowhere2010:
I'm using the one with no BFS.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nsmartinez79:
I just flashed the bfs kernel coming from the latest fresh Rom. I went toast CPU and my max is at 599????
[EVO 4G Android Development] nowhere2010:
You'll probably need to auto detect the new CPU frequencies in Overclock Widget or SetCPU.
[EVO 4G Android Development] v1pe:

[EVO 4G Android Development] :
Update 07/11/2010 @ 1:30am: A build that includes the 30 FPS unlock has now been added! This should work on both panels (novatec and epson) but has only been tested on epson.

At release hardware id 0002 = novatec and 0003 = epson, however some 0003 id’s are coming with the novatec screen.

This of course is still experimental, but post any issues that you have. Credit to netarchy on the FPS fix. If your phone seems really slow after first boot then just reboot it.

I am using the Fresh Kernel with BFS on 1.0. Everything is running smoothly, overclocking at 1.15 with short bench test of about 230-250ms. The only thing i noticed is the battery life is much worse (about half) than when I had fresh 0.53 with ffolkes fps undervolted kernel.

Any ideas why? I didnt change the profiles in SetCPU

[EVO 4G Android Development] baller2319:
Same here
[EVO 4G Android Development] persibro:
I was actually wondering the same thing before I flashed ffolkes' kernel. To put it bluntly, VERY noticeable. Not only was the scrolling faster, it actually felt a lot smoother as well. As for the newest Fresh Toast kernel, I wasn't able to get the FPS uncapped for some reason. The comments on the release notes page suggested a few others were having the same problem.

EDIT: This was in response barnacles before he flashed and wondering if the FPS boost would be noticeable.

I flashed the fresh kernel w/ bfs without the fps cap unlock last night. I didn't notice a real difference to the way my phone was running so I decided to try ffolkes Uv kernel for 2.1. Amazing difference with the fps unlock. My phone feels super responsive.

Btw, I didn't have any trouble flashing the fresh kernel without doing a wipe first.

Also I'm running fresh .53

With Build 003 novatek screen.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Lostx:
Also, just tried fresh kernel with fps unlock and it did not unlock fps for me.

I have hardware 003 novatek panel and the fps kernel did not unlock the fps. gears was caped at 30 same with fps2d. I am running fresh 0.5.3 and I did a wipe before applying this so it was a clean test.

Have you guys who don't have it working tried Evo Switch? I used that with this kernel (BFS enabled) and Fresh 0.5.3, and it worked great. In any case, I prefer Baked Snack still... for now. Though I was tempted by the BFS scheduler, so I tried to flash this kernel over that ROM. I didn't really expect it to work, so I wasn't horribly surprised when it didn't--however, is there any particular reason why it shouldn't work...? Just gets stuck at the HTC EVO 4G bootscreen.

[EVO 4G Android Development] mrkmrk:
Evo Switch is a appthat lets you change T2 values (which affect fps) on the fly. You can find it in ffolke's kernel thread.
[EVO 4G Android Development] troyboytn:
My 2 cents and my experience with trying these 3 kernels are.

1: FreshToast OC and UV - fantastic - battery savings with this kernel

are phenomenal and it might be a placebo effect but it seems a tad

speedier oc'd to 1152.

2: FreshToast OC, UV, BFS leaves performance in the toilet. Obviously BFS

is the culprit here. BFS was **** on the Hero and apparently on the Evo

as well.

3: FreshToast OC, UV, BFS, FPS fix does not correct 30 cap...at least

on my Evo (hardware 002, Nova LCD). Performance same as #2 above.

Of course these are only my tests. Yours may be the exact opposite, but I for one want no part of BFS which just caused my Evo to perform worse than my "stock" Hero.

Anyone else running into an issue with the BFS kernels? It slows my phone WAY down.

Also having problems running SetCPU. When using profiles, it seems to always use the min clock speed.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mastermarc:
you all may want to check your software versions and such, i was able to get 44fps after flashing the update and had the OC working correctly, but then lost both after flashing the radio. Seems to be an issue with not having 1.47 and there doesn't seem to be an official way to get it from flipz. Going to try some experimenting with installing the rooted 1.47 and then updating to the latest fresh.

will post if it works.
[EVO 4G Android Development] gx1400:
Nope. I'm running the 1.0beta1, with 1.47.651.1 software and updated radios. Seems to be a problem with the novatec panels in the 003 hardware.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kiddecks:

And this kernel did it for me! Woohoo! phone seems to be runnin a bit warm tho :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] mastermarc:
No luck getting to 1.47 without a wipe... Flashing the oc-uv-bfs last does however make the advertised features (FPS unlock, cpu OC and very smooth operation) work..

Still says i have 1.32.651.6 software so i don't know whatsup with that
[EVO 4G Android Development] Sprockethead:
So is the consensus that this doesn't work? I have an Epson panel, 003 hardware, but the FPS is not breaking 30.

Also, the screen is freaking out a little bit, which I assume is what everybody means by "tearing."

And how is this thread on page 2? I'd expect that a chance at unlocking the FPS would be right up near the top. That's crazy!

hey guys...I read all the eight pages, and I am using Evo Swap, and managed to uncap my FPS. Only problem I seem to be having is every time i put the screen to sleep, when it wakes up I have to reset Evo Swap... I was wondering if there is a way around that, or if that is just the way it is.

Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] zonyl:
Got it to uncap first attempt. Camera works and am very happy. Thanks to all involved!

However, the Display off will reset the T2 back to stock. Same results as Bladamir:

HW2, Evo Switch = 250 => 41 fps

screen off / screen on => 30fps

*To solve the screen off problem for now, Im trying to write a Tasker script to reset the T2 on the 'Display On' event. The device node is located at: /sys/devices/platform/mddi_c_b9f6_5582.1/t2 . # echo 250 > /sys/devices/platform/mddi_c_b9f6_5582.1/t2
