[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lgkahn:
doesnt anyone search anymore i posted this issue over a month ago. setting cpu mode to anything on than conservative can cause freezes as the system doesnt get enough cpu to wake up.. it is even mentioned in set cpu to use conservative.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Telanis:
I have it set to Conservative on my Vibrant, and I'm having the same issues as the OP.

Edit: When I go into SetCPU after pulling the battery and resetting, it shows it's limiting my CPU to 19.2 MHz. Yes, 19.2. Insane.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Telanis:
I killed my task manager service, and it didn't freeze up! I'm going to uninstall the task manager and see if I have any more freezing issues in the future.

Edit: Nope, didn't work. Removing SetCPU.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] argie:
I have the Vibrant version with T-Mo. After rooting, Titanium, Barnacle and Root Explorer all seem to be working fine.

After a few minutes of installing SetCPU, my phone wouldn't wake up. Rebooted twice, same results.

Removed SetCPU and the phone's working fine again. Maybe the minimum speed should be set at 250 or so?

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
To begin with, you don't even need SetCPU

SGS phone automatically regulates the speed of the CPU depending on your usage.

most of the time in Stock ROM it hover around 200 Mhz, very few times it uses the max 1000 Mhz

only when there are lots of background apps running

when you runt he CPU at 1000 Mhz it gets hot fast, and it consumes more battery

good thing is it drops back down to 100~200 Mhz as soon as it's done with the heavy tasks

so having the SetCPU installed will defeat the whole purpose of power saving and CPU cycle on demand
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MomijiTMO:
I don't even remember the last time where we had a fixed clock on a cpu Allgamer. The point of setcpu is to either downclock or overclock your cpu. You might want to limit your clock to 0.6GHz just to save some juice.

Anyway, after a few hours of head scratching and 2 reboots, I uninstalled and refunded it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ickyboo:
I agree. Setcpu is rather unstable. I have feeling lots of the kernel overclockers have problems but blame the kernel while they should blame setcpu
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toansta:
i have just installed setcpu. it's probably been about a day or so now and i have not experienced any problems?

i have an Australian model (I9000) just flashed to the canadian firmware for the 3br fix.

Is it just generally not recommended to use setcpu on my SGS?

please advise. Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reuthermonkey:
It depends on what you're using it for. If you know what you're doing, it can be a useful tool. If you want to overclock, you'll want setcpu. If you want to underclock (lets say you're out and about, with 40% battery), then you can set the maximum cpu speed lower so that the battery will last longer.

You don't need setcpu if you're simply going to tell it that you want your max speed to be 1ghz, with a min of 100mhz and you want it to be "conservative". Your phone does that by default, and frankly the SGS is pretty good on its own when it comes to battery management.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toansta:

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samuraiman10:
I tried to get Android on my HD2 which failed and now the device keeps re-starting with the white screen (with the green HTC logo) & constantly loops.

I can get into the Bootloader, I have tried a system restore, flashed it with the HTC 1.66.405.2 official ROM and I tried a custom one as well. It still keeps re-starting. I installed radio 2.08 as well.

Both these ROMS seemed to work as they went to 100% and it said it was successful but the device still keeps restarting after showing the white screen.

Any ideas or is this bricked?

Many Thanks.

ok i messed up my phone earlier so now im trying to flash the stock rom back onto it but im having some issues. i got all the file and read threads over and over and added the files to Odin but every time i hit start in Odin it doesn't work. it says im connected on com:4 and starts to flash but about 80% done it just stops there. i waited 45 mins before i started over and again the same thing. all the threads i read through said to be patient but they also said it shouldn't take more than 5 mins. im on my 3rd try and i still cant seem to get past that mark. am i doing something wrong or something?

Thanks

[General Questions and Answers] Oopsisharted:
Hi There, new to the boards.

Heres the low down. Im a recent iPhone convert. I got my first iPhone when they first came out, quickly realized how terrible ATT is, and hacked/flashed it unlocked it and went over to t-mobile. Back then hacking was like it is as of recently, go to website, hit link, wait for download, and voila!

I'm familiar with assistive-programs that help you jailbreak, like redsn0w and ultra, etc. But when my battery died, and i looked around, I finally realized that phone hardware finally caught up with the iPhone, and Android started looking really appealing. I love the open-source community, and the newer devices(Evo,GalaxyS,Droid)

After a very short think session(cause im with tmobile and the selection is vapid) I bought the Vibrant. I love the phone, aside from a few minor complaints(i would like a better battery life, and charge time. and a camera flash would be nice.)

I'm wondering what i should do to get the best performance and battery life out of my vibrant? SHOULD i root it? and with my modest developer background, should I attempt to root the device? is rooting really advantageous or should I just stick with good ol TMOB/Samsung 2.1 with all the crapware?

in short, whats the optimal android experience? and is it worth the hassle and voided warranty to do it?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] furry:
I have a odd problem, I've searched every where and nothing comes up..

My phone started flashing green/orange when I try to charge. From what I can find this indicates overheat and the phone won't charge. Problem is it does it when it wants. 3 different batteries, same results. I don't know exactly what batt temp is according to the phone??? But I do know there is no overheating going on!

As I said it gives overheat warning sometimes (most of the time) BUT sometimes it will charge fine...

USB cable and port is fine. 4 different chargers (HTC) and same result...

If I task29 and charge it without software it will ALWAYS charge BUT if I flash a ROM (any ROM) it gives an overheat warning???

(1) Is there any way to disable overheat protection in ROM? I suspect it is in rom because I can charge battery in task29 (no software loaded)?

(2) Is there a way to manipulate rom into thinking the battery is cooler that it reads?

( 3) Is there a app to tell me what the phone is seeing temp wise?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] rr5678:
Maybe the temperature sensor is shot, unless it's in the battery. in that case, then the batteries aren't communicating with the phone properly I would guess.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] husam666:
thermometer

Here's a little exe to tell you the temp
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] furry:
Awesome, I'll monitor it!

I split open the phone and made an educated guess as to which sensor is the temp sensor (see image) and placed elect tape between the sensor and its monitor board (battery rests on this plate). So far the phone has been fine and it has charged... Now I can monitor temp too!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] husam666:
Good news for you
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] adwinp:
Modifying your nand adress space is okay, but that means that you have to modify your recovery along with the new rom each time you want to flash a new one.

What I propose is a new, flexibile approach (mainly for devs).

This is just a placeholder atm, but once I get some free time, I'll write about making compressed partitions (mainly static data) using squashfs (this has been done to a certain extent in the past for /system/lib/modules), but adding a bit of flexibility with unionfs/aufs.

The advantages are numerous, as are the uses.

For example: no need for complex apps2sd scripts!

Just mount your unionfs in /data and mount-bind that to another folder on the SD partition of your choice, and voila, apps2sd.

;]

This is of course synonymous to modifying the initrd, but a few lines of really simple script and it's done.

I have successfully tested that with /system, and have to further test with /data

I also have to test unionfs / aufs and make a choice. The ideal one without hesitation is aufs, which has practically superseeded unionfs, but there are a few stability issues involved in the 2.6.29 patches.

There are a few knowledgeable (real) devs around (dunno about any in the Hero forum though), so they probably know what I'm writing about.

You know who you are, so just drop in a post in this thread in case you you would have some ideas regarding the implementation.

n.b. I might have to rewrite that post. It's 01:40 and I'm really tired after my training and work.

O_o
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] adwinp:
placeholder and a note:

I have patched the reverse-patched kernel (desirec) for this.

I've run into trouble building the official htc-release 2.6.29 kernel with aufs.

>edit 201008181214<

I've successfully patched the tattoo 3G/Slide kernel to build a healthy Hero kernel with aufs.

It kindda hangs in the beginning, but runs just fine afterwards.

Prolly due to my OC settings.

>leak<

I am also playing around with kernel hacking, since I want to get 2.6.32 on the Hero. Epic wip.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
good concept. I'm curious about performance - this would compress read/write on the fly, right? cpu resources etc, no problem there? no major lag issues in real use (startup doesn't matter much which you mentioned).

No I'm not a rom dev, but I AM a full time career developer.

by the way - I never found a workaround for the audio issue I had with your froyo rom. But it was a good project and I'm happy it's working well for you. :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] adwinp:
I am puzzled as well (audio issue).

You might've noticed that I'm no longer as active in the Hero forum.

I'm done with mdpi devices.

;]

In any case:

I have been working these past few days on optimising the kernel (I have based my work on the tattoo kernel) and aufs is working atm.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] blackplatypus:
you should use ninpo's repo, most uptodate kernel sources with a lot of fixes/patches included (http://github.com/Ninpo/kernel-hero/). aufs compilation worked at the first try.

ninpo works with elemag on porting 2.6.34, they already made a lot in porting the board files.

btw nice idea with overlaying the file system, I think a lot of nand protected device use that already? (Desire, Wildfire..) http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=748025

unfortunately I have nearly no spare time to play around, but I'm very interested to see how the compressed squashfs affects cpu load and thus the overall phone performance.

found an old but still interesting thread, so even cyanogen experimented with it, maybe there are unresolved issues?

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] adwinp:
As a matter of fact, Elemag PM'd me about his work.

To be frank, I am only playing around with this out of boredom, till I buy myself a hdpi device (I am waiting for the Glacier, hopefully)

;]

Thx for the links.

I can see that I was not the only one. lol

Despite a totally different approach, Maxisma's posts about a bigger data partition got me thinking, and ultimately reminded me of some work I did in the past with linux livecd's, which gave me the idea to try it on android.

To answer your question: decompressing squashfs is very fast, with little additional load/overhead (although, running a lot of running apps/widgets on our poor 528MHz/729MHz cpu in addition to a compressed system is generally a bad

idea)

I have another idea (from my linux administrating experience as well ;]) I would like to implement, but that would only work on newer devices, which have a lot of RAM.

My idea is to modify the init.rc in order to copy over the SYSTEM: partition ENTIRELY into RAM (essentially create a tmpfs mount point), do a switch_root, and let android take it from there.

This would of course also mean redefining the ANDROID_ROOT env variable to point to the new location.

A further modification would be to mount the WHOLE /system and /data into RAM (provided it fits and leaves enough for runtimes), and THEN further mount aufs in order to write to disk - or write to tmps, but, in the case of aufs, no further work is required, but in the case of tmpfs, you just have to #find all newer files than $uptime (taken from uptime, obviously), and recompress it to the original compressed fs.

That WORKS on a few linux systems I tried.

whew. a lot of ideas, but no device to test on.

We have a device with a bit more RAM, can over clock processes or, to 800 MHZ and run android, how does it not look like this?

This would be a great build!! We even have 3D Acceleration, what does the N900 have?

We even have more developers, but at least they should try working together to make a stable android build that is cool looking, I mean ,everyone wants a functional and glossy look, right, if we can make it like this, and all developers work on a good sense port, this could be a reality, is anyone up to the challenge?
