I've probably seen the question a dozen times, and I think that this deserves a sticky. So this is a thread for people to post their recommended SetCPU settings. I'll try to curate as best I can, but I will be out of town for a few days with only my phone to work with. There are sections for each ROM, though until I get some posts from other users, only CM6 with snap will be filled, as that's what I use. Please use the same format when posting your own settings, and include kernel if applicable. Also, please avoid posting for a ROM that is already up, unless you have something significantly different.

Without further ado...

CM6 with Snap:

Main: 245-998 MHz, conservative governer

Profiles:

Screen Off: 128-245 powersave, priority 100

Temp > 50.0 C 245-960 conservative, priority 92

Battery < 20% 245-384 conservative, priority 74

Battery < 40% 245-537 conservative, priority 65

I'm not going to cover advanced settings here - too controversial.

What does the Incredible run at by default?

Which ROM and kernel are you running? :p
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phatmanxxl:
I always felt my phone ran better without setCPU
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Techrocket9:
The Incredible is a 1Ghz phone, so SetCPU probably reads it as 998.

Hey all,

Is it possible to actually replace the front faceplate of my black slide with one from a defective model or something? I got some bad scratches by mistake and I'd love to fix this if possible. Can the front of the casing be unattached?

Thanks!
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ace42:
Youll have to get it from a broken one or something, cause it seems HTC isnt selling any parts besides the screen. Thats the only part you can buy online. There's a assembly guide in the general section that you can look at.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tinpanalley:
Anyone know where I can find that assembly guide? Can't see it anywhere.

Help

I'm running the stock 2.1 rom but am rooted with the universal 1 click method. I have removed the cellophane from inside the case,but I cannot loose the red tint when trying to take pictures. I have adjusted the ISO to every setting,leaving it at 800,adjusted the brightness level up & down to no avail and cleaned the lens with q-tips. I have the 1 grayed out control which I think is normal for the stock rom

Anyone have any ideas on what is wrong?

Thanks

Where are you taking the pictures?

Does it have a red tint everywhere you take pictures?

Might sound silly, but when I take a pic in my bedroom, the red curtains and redish rug give all pics a red tint, its fine everywhere else.

As soon as there was enough charge it started vibrating again, there was no light showing it was charging. Help Me Please...

Shot in the dark but try flashing your ROM again without doing a wipe.
[TG01 General] drkdeath5000:
Well my first real attempt at cooking a ROM has failed partially :-). I tried to use miro's clean rom as a base to install sense but after flashing to my device i have no start menu at the bottom left so cant do anything, i cant even flash a new rom ? Im not sure if its sense thats caused the problem or the cabs i added to the auto install (i think i forgot to number them in the registry) but ill figure that out when i next flash ... now i need to somehow flash another rom, i take it the only way to do so is through the pin recovery method or is there some way i can i run the update tool without the start menu ? My phones still detected by the pc so theres one thing, i can see all the files, etc.

Thanks
[TG01 General] maciek90:
Try this. Or short-pin method.
[TG01 General] drkdeath5000:
Managed to load another ROM using the pin short method but i think ill have to try that sd uploader tool sometime :-).

Also, it seems the cause of the start menu not appearing was some cab files i removed from the tg01_edit folder. These are only in miro's rom but are obviously there for a good reason. Maybe miro could explain what they do but for now theres some advice for new cookers like myself - dont remove those cabs.

Thanks
[TG01 General] mirolg:
FOR the FIRST: Please don´t open a new Thread for each problem!

You have delete DN.cab= no StartMenu!

miROM4 and miROM5 is the only cook friendly ROM. booth have the

startmenu

. miROM4 has don´t wm Titanium startscreen.

in folder tg_01 are cabs:

commander.cab= File explorer

coreplayer.cab= Video player

DN.cab= DarkNinjaTaskbar (please not deleting= then don´t startMenu)

EmailANDbuttonfix= fix

livvenTheme.cab= Theme pack

vibLight.cab= vibration off + backlight full

WVGACalculatorSkin= Calculator Skin

AND ROM cooking is like a school. you now in first class. SENSE ROM cooking is a Work for 10th class. how can i teach you, what have a 10th class learned?

make little steps: change welcomepic, add more cab´s to autoinstall and read, read this forum.
[TG01 General] drkdeath5000:
Thanks again Miro, was wondering what your cabs were for. Now i know :-).

I've spent all day cooking ROM's but so far havent got a sense ROM to work, everything else though i've managed to do fine ie changing welcome screen, adding my own cabs, even other packages work fine but as soon as i add sense packages something stops working :(. I've even tried adding sense on its own to your mirom5 but it still doesnt work. Cant seem to find any info on how to cook sense on xda but if anyone has a link that would be a huge help.

I do understand sense is a little much for myself since im new to cooking but i do have programming experience so its not like im completely new to this, well i guess i am since it doesnt seem to have anything to do with programming lol :p. My point though is i've managed to add cabs, packages, a new welcome screen i've designed in photoshop, and i've even tweaked some settings in the registry to speed things up but sense just wont work ? If i need to be in the 10th class for cooking sense then that must mean theres something more to it, ie its not just a case of copying the packages to the SYS folder. Theres no harm in me trying and im certainly not giving up on sense so if someone would care to share how to go about installing sense id be very grateful.

Im all for learning too so is theres something else i can try other than adding cabs, packages, etc im up for it :D.

Thanks
[TG01 General] drkdeath5000:
Well i spent all day yesterday experimenting with different setups but still havent been able to get sense working. I just cant understand why its not working, all my other packages have been fine so i must be doing it right ? I havent found any tutorial thats been of use yet since there all referring to visual packages and as far as i know we need the text version for tg01. For now im giving up but ill try again tomorrow.

In the meantime id appreciate if any chef's could share some advice or tutorials they have used to learn this stuff. My main problem is actually finding the info on this since its all visual kithen tut's which are no good to us.

The main area's im looking to learn are :

installing packages - im thinking this is where im going wrong with sense but then again every other package so far has worked fine. Am i doing correct to copy my package over to the sys folder and adding an app.dat file with the program locations, etc ? What else is involved in installing a package ?

editing the boot.rgu and boot.hv - both these are supposed to be in the xip folder but i dont see any ?

Finding specific folders - ie id like to cook my own fonts so i need to know how to cook files to the windows>fonts folder.

Editing the initflashfiles - this could also be where im going wrong with sense, im copying the manilla entries from another rom dump that has manilla installed already and adding them to my own initflashfiles - is this correct ?

The above are just the main things id like to learn but id like to learn more too so if you know specific threads i can read please post them here.

Thanks :-)
[TG01 General] mirolg:
hello my ambitious cooker friend.

one tip: post and search in HTC LEO or HTC RHODIUM for spezial help over SENSE cooking, search on others forums like ppcgeek, mobileunderground.

here in forum leestone and i, think dont have time to teach you- we have our ROM´s- i have 6x and support for this and much newer projects.

i help ALcAtRas500 and EVEALEX62 by learning ROM cooking.

for sense you need not only 6-7 ManilaCoreFiles like 2016 update- and the most of this Update have not initialflash.txt with path to incooking xml. files.

for you important is under OEM_Lang409 initialflash.dat here is all path of Packages. when failed this is after cooking the windowsfolder ManilaXml empty and your Sense will dont start ....

o.k. and really i will help you, but don´t have time- and me have all self learning- pls do so
[TG01 General] leeston2379:
Adding a package is just a case of drag and drop into the sys folder, its making sure you've got the right kind of package thats important. I pretty sure if you've got an app.dat its a visual package.

boot.rgu and boot.hv are in Kitchen\ROM\XIP\ but they are hidden files, make sure your pc is set to show hidden file types.

There are no folders in the kitchen, they are generated when the ROM is built. You would need to use custom scripts or cabs to install them where you need them. I'm not sure if initflashfiles can be used for this or if its only shortcuts.

Editing the initflashfiles.txt is a case of opening it up and editing the text, the following code is an example.

Directory("\Windows\StartUp"):-File("XDA_UC.mscr","\Windows\XDA_UC.mscr")

where "Windows\StartUp" is the destination folder and "XDA_UC.mscr","\Windows\XDA_UC.mscr" is the file name and location.

All this is to the best of my knowlage and shouldn't be taken as gospel.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stihl29:
Hello, i just got my first smartphone, i have AT&T and i didnt want an iphone and was more drawn toward andriod, so i got a captivate. I would really like to do alot of the things in the "Pimp my captivate" guide but i have some questions first.

1.) If i root the phone, and take off the bloatware, will i still get updates if i go to the check for updates in settings? (ex. like the gps fix and froyo update someday).

2.) Its not going to subtract any features from the phone is it ? (ex. the google syncing and everything will still work? Basically is the rooting process and or bloatware removal going to change the way the phone works besides the programs those being gone?

Ill admit i'm an andriod phone hacking noob, but i do know computers well and programming and have altered other devices in the past.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fooldog01:
I would like to know this as well.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MultiMike:
Since no updates have come down yet, I don't think anyone is sure of the answer to this. Keep in mind that it's a good idea to make backups of the app APKs on your sdcard before you remove them (just in case you want to reinstall them).

Removing AT&T's crappy apps won't affect the phone negatively at all. They simply won't be there, so you can't use them (if you find them useful). The only app that I can think of you may want to keep is the AT&T Hot Spots app so you phone can use free AT&T wifi at locations such as Starbucks.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nbs11:
Yes, you will still get updates as long as you do not install a custom ROM. (Rooting is ok).

The only functionality that will be removed will be that of the apps you delete
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stihl29:
Thank you so much this clears up alot of the things I've been wondering.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kanzeon:
Rooting issues

I have tried everything I have found online. The superuser icon is there. I have downloaded several apps that require the device to be rooted. I turned on usb debugging, and turned it off. I've downloaded update.zip several times.

I'm not entirely a noob when it comes to tweaking phones. I flashed roms on windows mobile and performed all sorts of modifications I got off this site.

I have the superuser icon. I downloaded titanium. Titanium says it installed busybox. I downloaded the separate busybox app from the market. That app has a popup saying that a nand unlock is necessary for the app to work. When I run it in spite of the popup, it says the device is rooted, but can't find busybox. A whoami command in adb will indicate that I'm not. I went though adb to reinstall busybox. But whenever I try to run any significant commands (eg su) it gives me a permission denied error. Googling permission denied gives me a myraid of possible causes, but it seems I'm getting far afield. I just want to get rid of the bloatware for now.

Is there another program to root this thing? Did I just miss something incredibly obvious?

hello, I recently just rooted this beast, and was wondering when, why, and how often i should clear out the dalvic cache
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gunnyman:
You shouldn't ever need to unless you are installing a ROM that requires it. the Dalvik Cache is the Java VM that Android Runs on and it does a very good job of keeping itself cleared. It does lots of Garbage collection on its own.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikkibailey1968:
I've been rooted for about a month now, playing with various roms and loving it.

However, today, I decided to try FrEak's newest rom using netarchy/toasts latest kernel. Things were going pretty well for a while, then all of a sudden, everything either quit responding or is taking at least a minute to respond, i.e. notification bar, menus opening/closing, touchscreen, etc.

So I did a complete wipe, cache, etc. and flashed the latest BakedSnack rom, again, with netarchy kernel, and same issue.

Does anyone have any suggestions? I'm wondering if going back and re-rooting would help....but if I do, should I use SimpleRoot or the newest unrevoked?

This is killing me!!!!

Last good responding rom I had was Fresh 3.1.0.1, but haven't tried reflashing that to see if it's the roms I'm using or something wrong with my phone.

Thanks in advance.

First and foremost, please post questions like this in the Q&A, or GENERAL section next time. This part will be moved for you though.

Ok,... I think your making this more difficult than need be. I haven't looked at the link you provided as my phone is playing up..

Take a look at BTDAGs guide linked in my signature... If you have already successfully installed the custom recovery, all you need to do now is pick a custom ROM to download and flash using the recovery.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] btdag:
That is quite an old guide you're following. Try mine, or the one here http://villainrom.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=107&t=2028 or there is universal androot - which will just give you root access on any rom.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mljjlm:
you should use this to mount system in read/write-mode:

# mount -o rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

alternatively put adb shell in front of:

>adb shell mount -o rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

And by the way, you should do this from recovery mode (which is accessed by keeping home-button pressed down while turning on. I assume that you have a custom recovery)

[Epic 4G General] FoxRacR17:
So i have pretty much decided to ditch my hero and get the epic when it is released at the end of this month because it SEEMS like it is going to be the perfect phone for me. My only concern is that everyone is talking that gingerbread is coming out later this year and I know the EPIC will just barely be getting froyo next month.

I hope that samsung has plans on bringing gingerbread to the galaxy S line of phone eventually, if not i guess thats why we root our phones, but i'm concerned on if the EPIC will have the hardware to handle gingerbread and or honeycomb. Or should i just wait until those dualcore phones come out?
[Epic 4G General] kennethlongshaw:
The minimum requirements for Gingerbread are 512 of ram, 1 ghz processor, and a 3 inch screen. The epic meets these requirements and will likely get gingerbread due to samsungs large investment into the galaxy s series.

I dont know anything about honeycomb and thus can only speculate about it.
[Epic 4G General] jspielberg:
Rumor has it that the nexus one is the development phone for gingerbread. If that is the case then the EVO and Epic are both well within the hardware limits of gingerbread. Now is it within Samsung's or Sprint's best interests to upgrade your "old" epic or evo or make us buy a new phone when Gingerbread is GA is a different matter all together.

[Epic 4G General] koolhand79:
Im sure we will get at least gingerbread one way or another. Either through official channels or all the great devs out there. And when did google officially give the requirements for GB?? I was under the assumption those leaked specs were just a rumor
[Epic 4G General] bjb_nyj101:
Those spec "requirements" were just a rumor.
[Epic 4G General] NeonMonster:
I think it depends on when Gingerbread is going to come out.

Samsung seems to be really trying to get out Froyo, but most likely by the time Gingerbread starts rolling out, a new better samsung phone will be out and they will be busy pushing it to that.

I dont have much faith in Samsung, but don't honestly care as long as they release the gingerbread source code so some good developers can compile a juicy rom.
