I like AOSP roms.

I'm in for this.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] mrtim123:
not trying to sound like im having a go at you, but if your ROM is based on eternity 002, then it is not really a custom ROM. it is more a customised SE ROM (as is eternity). a Custom ROM is something that was not originally designed to run on the hardware, or has been custom-made for the hardware (such as the AOSP ROM that jerpelea and zdzihu have been working on).

again, not ripping on you, but its more of a theme and app customisation than an entire custom rom.

sounds interesting tho
[Vibrant General] sheek360:
do you guys think we will still have to use a lag fix on a 2.2 rom that has the JIT compiler enabled?
[Vibrant General] Tpavey:
The lag is mostly due to Samsung's poor file system. Unless they fixed it or abandoned it I'm guessing we will still have lag.
[Vibrant General] sheek360:
Wow. You gotta be ****ting me!
[Vibrant General] denny_1986:
the leaked 2.1 build fixed the lag for me so im guessing yes (if and when 2.2 comes out that is)
[Vibrant General] demo23019:
No lag i JI6 2.1
[Vibrant General] presence06:
Wouldn't the JIT fix the lag though? Or would samsung use their own even in 2.2? (just speculating)
[Vibrant General] tjhart85:
Their FileSystem still sucks. 2.2 with JIT might significantly speed up the phone and take away the noticeable lag, but it will still be crippled in terms of its true functionality.
[Vibrant General] geoffcorey:
JIT is CPU based execution while the lag is because of file system writes. they are 2 different things and not connected. If what i heard is correct (and if i'm remembering it correctly), RFS has issues with queuing write commands unlike ext2/3/4.

correct, it's file system related, not cpu related.
[Vibrant General] d01100100:
There are numerous issues with RFS.

See the following I9000 threads for more information:

sync issues with RFS - http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=8445244&postcount=143

In my honest opinion, when does Samsung consider the cost benefit of maintaining this proprietary filesystem versus using "stock" ext*fs? At what point do they swallow their pride and realize their filesystem isn't ready for production?

hi, if you take out the battery of htc kaiser and put it to charge , does the orage light appear ?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] WeissenbornC:
Hello dear XDA members,

after flashing a WM6.x to my blue angel I sometimes get the following boot error:

R NONE

G NONE

D WM6.x

However, when I remove the battery long enough for the reserve battery to get empty (say, over night), then everything seems to be okay on the next boot and I get what I normally should:

R 1.13.00

G 1337.42

D WM6.x

I have now had this error on 3 different devices using 3 different windows mobile ROMs (all from d-two, 2 german ones and one wwe). It doesn't occur always, but in round about 75% of bootups.

Does anyone know something about this?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] Chef_Tony:
that is a common error that happens with all cooked roms.

while running wm2003, pressing reset or removing the battery for a second was basicly the same: it did a soft reset.

but on cooked roms there is a significant difference, while resetting using the proper pin performs an actual soft reset, removing the battery causes the device to boot without radio, which in most roms means, not boot at all. whenever you see R:NONE while booting, just press reset and let it boot again, that time it should show the numbers.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] WeissenbornC:
So far working perfect.

Thank you very much.

Installing:

0. Make sure you've got the ENGINEERING HBOOT installed on your device!

1. Download the archive

2. Decompress it, you'll have a .img file (its name should be "radio.img")

3. Copy it into your fastboot folder

4. Boot your device into FastBoot mode and connect it to your PC via USB

5. Go into your Android SDK folder with CMD (Windows) or Linux terminal

6. Flash the Radio on your device: "fastboot flash radio radio.img"

7. Wait until the process finishes. You should read "COMPLETE" on your device's display.

8. Reboot

9. Enjoy!

Please note that you should flash a new radio only if you really know what you're doing!

NOTE: 26.04.02.17 is known to work on G2 and most probably all the radios are flashable on both G2 and D-Z.

Happy flashing!

Is this the ship desire z rom? And if so, can someone please explain how to flash it too this G2. Thanks for help.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] kholk:
These are only Radio ROMs.

Anyway, it's dangerous to flash a Desire Z on a G2 and vice versa: I don't know if crossflashing will brick the phone.

Flashing a Desire Z Radio ROM on your T-Mobile G2 is at your own risk.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] steviewevie:
Do we even know how to flash a new radio yet ?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] steviewevie:
Any radio should work anywhere. They're not specific to radio bands/hardware etc (though obviously specific to Vision).

However, how *well* the radio will work may vary, and you can only tell by trying it out, because there are so many factors involved (e.g. distance from the base station, how you use your phone, etc).
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] steviewevie:
Other members have successfully flashed Desire Z radios on their G2. So it should be fine, yes.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] steviewevie:
Another member posted up that they'd made up a .zip file with the android-info.txt file from a ROM image, I think, then just the radio, and flashed it via hboot. Try doing a search. I haven't done it myself so I can't give my own input on it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] steviewevie:
I had some weird problems when I flashed the latest radio. It seemed to work fine, but after I left the phone powered off overnight it then was stuck in a boot loop. I reflashed the recovery and radio, and then it worked fine.

However, the next day I had the same problem, and I ended up re-flashing the whole ROM to get it working again. I have no idea why I got this problem, yet others have been perfectly fine.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] denich:
Since I flashed the new radio I fully fixed the Wi-WI weakeness problem, the signal strenth became bettere (and more staple -no more signal jumps),but how i is often happens, I found a new problem- GPS working not stable- today it was not able to connect the satellite on the open sky. It was snowy in Russia, can it be because of snow???

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] wrsg:
is it safe to flash the Vision_HBOOT_0.85.0005 on my T-Mobile G2?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] steviewevie:
On it own, no. That's the stock DZ hboot, so if you flash it on a G2 then there may be problems since the partitioning is slightly different on the two phones when stock.

Why would you want to flash that ? Are you trying to go back from the eng hboot to a stock one ? Or vice versa ? There are links to the eng hboots for both the G2 and DZ in the Wiki.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] wrsg:
yeah i wanted to flash the newer radio, but i found out i had to use the engineering hboot, which i have now done, and have the newer radio (after getting stuck in a htc logo freeze up and subsequently doing a fastboot fix)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Beast11:
So basically flashing on of these radios on my Bell DZ should be fine? This seems very odd to me coming from a dream/ magic where flashing a radio is VERY scary...lol
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] steviewevie:
Yes it's fine. But bear in mind the latest radio has some extra security in it. If you have radio S-OFF you will still be able to try it and downgrade if you don't like it though.

Any word on which is the best radio for the Bell Desire Z?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] flyf0rawhiteguy:
I successfully flashed Vision_RADIO_12.28e.60.140f_26.04.02.17 to my TMOUS G2 and noticed quite an improvement. Bear in mind though that as mentioned before - you results WILL vary depending on where you live. I used to run into dead spots smack in the middle of the city (where I know there was signal). Upgrading the radio proved that this was the case as I no longer seem to have this issue.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] steviewevie:
There is no overall "best" radio because there are so many factors involved with radio reception. Try a different one and see how it works for you.

I got a Bell Desire Z on AT&T in the New York area, can anyone tell me what radio they're using on AT&T and if you're in the New York area on t-mobile or at&t?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] steviewevie:
It's older, yes. You'd be better off trying a newer one, e.g. 26.04.02.17. But there's a chance an "older" one might give you better reception, yes.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Beast11:
OK... but werent you saying 04 adds security (makes its s-on?). Lol... srry for all the questions.

It was my understanding that radio has nothing to do with spl...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] SSVR:
I'm also wondering this... I'm running CM 6.1.1 and reception is atrocious on wifi and some people have suggested running a different radio ROM. Additionally it fails when trying to manually select a mobile operator.

From what I can gather there's one radio which is numerically higher than the one I have but have heard the S-on rumbling and I really don't want to loose my S-off.

Oddly (or not, im new to this android thing) the wifi works fine on virtuous rom etc...

Can anyone confirm?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] steviewevie:
I believe that if you do not have S-OFF and you put on this radio (e.g. via OTA update) then you can't get S-OFF via gfree.

But if you already have full radio S-OFF via gfree, then you can flash the latest radio and you will still keep your S-OFF. If you don't like it you can still downgrade.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] JPHCCFC:
quick question for this step:

3. Copy it into your fastboot folder

should the file be copied to my dz or in a fastboot folder on my pc?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dhkr123:
I would like to make a few points here about safety/security for all of YOU, as the device owners;

1) Flashing a radio or hboot via FASTBOOT is safer than flashing through recovery. It is a much simpler process that has a lower potential for failure.

2) If you want to try the egypt/26.04 radio, BE CERTAIN that you have run gfree *fully* prior to doing so (i.e., "gfree -f"), because gfree won't work any more after and you don't want to be stuck (you probably won't be, but there is ZERO advantage to limiting the gifts offered by scotty2, and accepting the remaining will be more complicated after the 26.04 radio is installed).

3) FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, the 26.04 radio is the very safest (providing you followed point #2). The reason for this is simple: Just about ANYBODY can write an android application that does something TRULY nasty, like rage, followed by gfree/wpthis, followed by "dd if=/dev/zero of=/your radio partition", and it would completely brick your phone to the point that you will have no recourse but to attempt (if possible) a warranty replacement. The 26.04 radio protects your radio partitions by preventing wpthis from working. ANYTHING else can be wiped blank (including the SPL) and you can repair the phone with nothing more than a USB cable. All you would have to do is install a malicious application (i.e. from the market), and guess what? It wouldn't need ANY special permissions that would get your alarm bells going. This wpthis vulnerability is a DISASTROUS CRIPPLING DEFECT, and even scotty2 (aka GOD) has expressed concern over the potential for misuse.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] steviewevie:
I'm not sure what you're saying here. Surely this is the same as on previous HTC phones with lesser security, i.e. anyone could write an app with a root exploit and directly trash stuff on your phone ?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Beast11:
Alright, so I flashed 04 and the reception is definitely better. I'm on Fido in the Mississauga/ Hamilton area...

BUT... now wifi doesnt turn on... Everytime i try it just says error... This is wat logcat returned:

D/Tethering( 1508): eth0 is not a tetherable iface, ignoring

E/WifiHW ( 1508): Wi-Fi will not be enabled

E/Tethering( 1508): attempting to remove unknown iface (eth0), ignoring

E/WifiService( 1508): Failed to start supplicant daemon.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dhkr123:
No. On previous phones, you could ONLY trash SOME of what was on the phone... radio and SPL were always protected from such violence. Why do you think that the only ways of writing the radio or spl on... say... DREAM was to ask the radio nicely? You couldn't just dd the SPL into its partition, since none of that was exposed to the OS. Addresses in the NAND prior to a certain address were protected by the radio, and that protection was NOT compromised since there was no motive to do so (like having that protection extend to the system partition or some other such stupidity).

In fact, the procedure went in one of two ways;

1) recovery: write the spl or radio image into the CACHE partition, write "flash-hboot" or "flash-radio" into the MISC partition, REBOOT, let the voodoo happen.

2) fastboot: well here, you're sending it straight to the authority, BUT, you HAVE to be in that special mode... fastboot.

Note that on DREAM and other previous HTC phones, there was literally NO ACCESS to the radio configuration data. The radio on those devices was NEVER made S-OFF.... mainly because... to this day... NOBODY KNOWS HOW!!! You certainly couldn't bump the eMMC and blast stuff at partition 7.... do you ever recall seeing any carrier-unlock hacks for GN1? Nope.

HTC's big mistake was putting the system under the same protection as the RADIO, and is also controlled by the radio... the result is that access to the system required that the radio be dangerously hacked. Nobody ever hacked this stuff on older phones because there was very little to gain from it.

Being hacked to this degree makes these devices ***FAR*** more vulnerable than any previous phone... and at the moment, the 26.04 radio is the ONLY known defence. I'm virtually 100% certain that scotty2 *knows* how to get into the 26.04 radio, but hasn't released this information because it isn't NECESSARY (or in the very least, he could certainly figure it out...). In my opinion, a very responsible choice not to give out this kind of power without good justification for it.

Now don't get me wrong, I've had one of these for all of one WEEK and I really do like the phone A LOT, but there are a few REALLY bone headed moves that HTC took on it. How can you have a unix computer without a "|" key on its keyboard???!?!?! WTF? Very inconvenient (but fixable...), but nothing compared to this eMMC bounce problem.... which never would have been found if not for the fact that the system partition was thrown in with the radio....

Works here...

You might want to take a look at the file permissions for that path it is complaining about.

And WHY are you trying to tether on robbers? You made of money or something? Their data rates are downright CRIMINAL. FYI: Globalive/Wind has coverage through hamilton (I was there this morning about 9AM), and offer *superior* service (which is why robbers was slapped with a nice multi-million $$ fine for lying about the quality of globalive's network -- after the competition bureau actually investigated their lies). The early termination fee (if you are stuck to a contract) is VERY worth it... Especially given current promos... http://www2.windmobile.ca/en/Pages/UnlimitedTalkTextData.aspx

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mejorguille:
Usually a newer radio will bring any combination of battery improvements, data throughput optimizations, signal improvements, etc., or it may be the complete opposite. Try it out for a few days and post your feedback. I noticed about an extra bar most places I go. Use Gfree to completely S-Off your radio first because it's a hassle to do it later.

Off topic, But What happened to your lbcoder and lbcoder2 accounts, dhkr123? I remember you from the G1 section because you are so knowledgeable with respects to radio's and spl's, you hating on rogers, and your habit of TALKING like THIS. Glad to have you on the G2 side, you were always helpful and gave advice to both the noobs and the experienced alike (albeit a bit harsh sometimes, LOL).
