Super noob guide shoudl be called stupid's guide to oc!!!

Wow man was this simple!!!

I'm very new to Android...only had one for less than 2 weeks!!!! I followed your instructions, and ran flawlessly!!! I got to 1420 without any issues....I got these results:

Stock 1.42Ghz

Linpack: 29.6 50.7

Quadrant: 1655 2237

Nenamark: 32.6fps 36.6fps

Temps: 96.9* 96.9* (After about 5 min of playing around)

@1.42GHZ ran perfectly well....lightning fast...apps opened up in a snap...I tried pressing on to setting the value at 79 (1.51Ghz) and it froze completely...had to do a batt pull. Had no raises in temps with was nice (iget it when charging, particualrly when using the BB's chargers).

So I'm going to run it @1.2 and see how it goes...if it remains stable I'll bump it up.

I know you were looking at making this load on boot through VISIONary..any luck?

Again, thanks!!! These temp roots and work around are what I needed to keep the phone!

UPDATE: OK, so kept trying to run faster.....got to 76 (1459MHz) and was able to run out of gscript....but once I tried 77 (1478) it froze on "close"

One more question.....doing this voids the warranty??? if it reverts how would they (TMO) know? also....how can I revert back to stock?

Thanks!!!!
[G2 and Desire Z General] jcX4ever:
Every time you turn it off, it goes back to normal.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Crey23:
Actually, I meant if there is a way to revert all the scripts and all. Somehow, and I haven't got a clue how...my device reboots @ 1.42

Now here is something interesting....since last night I have had only one reboot...and I have used it a lot!!!! The temperature...WOW...its runnin @ 88 degrees solid, and as low as 82!!! I watched about 30 min of youtube, played angry birds for about another 30 min...and its running super smooth

Battery life is actually better, but I did set 4 profiles is set cpu.

Overall, I have had only one force close....on setcpu and nothing else...something that happened very often before oc. System runs much better @1.42 than stock, almost as if it was intended to run this way.

I will update in a few days to see what's going on.

Thanks again for the guide!!!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thewhiterabbit9:
So this is a pretty random question, hopefully someone has needed to do it before as well. I work for a company that does a lot of tradeshows where we use mobile devices and use Wi-Fi. As you can image in a tradeshow there's a lot of Wi-Fi noise and interference.

My hope is there is a way to provide a mobile device (i.e. Evo) with a network connection through the USB cable? Has anyone ever seen this, or heard of it? If so, could you assist in providing any references? I cannot find anything at all...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] v_lestat:
so you dont want cellular data you want data from your laptop to your phone.

the new HTC Sense on the HD phones has what they call Internet PassThru which from what i read is supposed to be the same thing as what HTC did on the windows mobile phojes using active sync on your pc where it would pull data from the pc instead of wifi or 3G or 4G.

this does not work on any of the EVO HD ports, and i have not confirmed it even works on the phones it was designed for.

this was a feature i dearly want also and frankly its just reverse tethering, but its a completely different animal when it comes to data send/recieve.

so.... i would... i dont know.. check out the EVO roms with the 'HD' in the rom name and see what you can do.

if you are not into Android Dev'ing then i am afraid to say you are s.o.l. and i have seen neither a free or paid app that will allow this reverse tethering and i see no plans from HTC to allow it on the EVO.

frankly i dont understand why Spring wouldnt want this as a feature when the EVO was released... i mean jesus imagine how much more free resources there would be on their network if more and more phones where able to usb connecto to their PC for data.

keep the calls going over Cellular but jsut have the Data come from the usb.

frankly i dont know if its that hard to program, i cant imagine it is, but i am not a dev. just a free thinker with an attitude problem.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thewhiterabbit9:
Yea, so tried one of the HD roms and the internet passthrough isn't functioning. Has anyone else been able to get something like this working?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Psyphin-X:
i'm new to the whole rooting thing, but i want to do it. i have a SGH-T959 Vibrant and i downloaded the one touch method. Thats not the real question i have, i'm rooting so i can overclock my cpu and do the lag fix. I've read that i have to install a new kernel or something to be able to do these. Does anybody know what i have to do to do both of these?

My main concern is if it well make my phone interface look different or act different, because i like that stuff about the phone, it just needs to go faster.

And does anyone know about maybe being able to use some of your internal or external sd cars memory as RAM, like a computer?

Any help would be great, Thank You.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Psyphin-X:
Also if i root my phone and everything will i still be able to do the 2.2 update when it comes out?

Hello,

Two days ago, I did flash GOT 2.2.1 (Great peice of software btw). However, now my milestone is not able to recharge any battery. I did revert to the stock rom without any effect.

Can a simple ROM kill hardware in a phone ?

Any suggestion ?

Thanks !
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Rootssss:
Help please ! My Milestone is dead ;-(( Any idea on what could get my milestone to charge a battery ? I did use the usb to computer charge and the usb to wall. Nothing !

everything fine....i hope that doesnt happen to me

Well, 2.2 got broke it somehow. I guess the part was already weak when I did flash it.

Was just a bad luck moto did repair it.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snow_fox:
So Word is the htc desire a8183 model supports at&t bands..

Any idea where I could find one for 550$ or less new?

Also does anyone run this on the 10$ dumb phone plan? if so how long?

Anything I absolutely need to know before grabbing it?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cr1960:
As far as I know the only place that HTC supplies a8183's to is Australia.

Take a look on eBay - you need one that either says Telstra or NextG (Telstra's 850 mhz mobile network name) or of course a8183. As for $550? You might be lucky - but the Australian dollar is worth almost the same as the US dollar at the moment so I think you might struggle to find a new one. Second hand maybe?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] htc fan89:
You forgot the TELUS desires which is the real nam version because it has 850/1900 umt bands, plus its cheaper than Telstra version
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cr1960:
Didn't know that about Telus - thx for the information.

EVERYTHING is cheaper than Telstra prices! :)
[G2 and Desire Z General] Raspster:
The site tells the tale. Here is the canadian HTC site with the specs for the Desire Z. ROM shows 4GB:

http://www.htc.com/ca/products/desirez-bell#tech-specs

Here is the UK HTC site for the Desire Z. ROM says 1.5GB

http://www.htc.com/uk/product/desirez/specification.html

Someone getting screwed again??
[G2 and Desire Z General] steviewevie:
Typo on the Canadian site ?
[G2 and Desire Z General] faugusztin:
And G2 says 4GB too, yet most of them get 1.5GB :

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=796421&highlight=1.5GB
[G2 and Desire Z General] meboy:
Look again. There's more than just the ROM that's different from other specs. we've seen.

The battery is 1230mah

The weight is 164g instead of the 180g we've seen everywhere else.

Weird.
[G2 and Desire Z General] LickTheEnvelope:
I will be very very happy if it has 4 GB of ROM. (CDN Version).
[G2 and Desire Z General] faugusztin:
@LickTheEnvelope: but very, very improbable. T-Mobile G2 has 1.5GB for you as a user, period :

http://www.facebook.com/TMobile?v=wall&story_fbid=107096669355183&ref=mf

Same applies for Desire Z and same will apply for Desire Z NAM. There is no 1.5GB and 4GB variant, all have 1.5GB user and 4GB total internal flash memory. HTC states the real, usable size of memory, T-Mobile states the total amount of memory.
[G2 and Desire Z General] LickTheEnvelope:
You would likely be correct. Bell's spec sheet lists their desire Z at 1.5 GB. Oh well.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Raspster:
That is so deceiving cause the Desire HD and the Desire Z (UK version) both say 1.5GB and the Desire Z (CA) and G2 (T-Mobile) say 4GB. That is WAY off from 1.5GB. What the hell do they need 2.5GB for OS and pre-installed apps for?!? That's CRAZY!!
[G2 and Desire Z General] faugusztin:
Good question, but i have no answer.
[G2 and Desire Z General] steviewevie:
There's a massive ongoing discussion on the whole 1.5 GB vs 4 GB thing over on the G2 forum. So far, it's been shown (via dismantling a G2) that it really does have a 4 GB chip in there, but only 1.5 GB seems to be accessible - so far, no-one can explain why.
[G2 and Desire Z General] gtrab:
This has been extensively discussed previously

Search for the "HTC vision" variants thread

They all have 4GB memory but "only" 1.5GB is user accessible for apps,

which I still think is enough,

more than plenty when considering the other phones in the market have less than half that ammount, and the number of apps you could ever possbly install into your phone

To make this clear again:

Some operators are marketing it as "4GB" and some are saying "1.5GB", but thats THE SAME because in the end ALL HTC VISION VARIANTS (T-mobile G2, HTC Desire Z, Desire Z NAM-US, Verizon's Merge...) have memory of 4 GB/1.5GB accessible.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gottijr:
Hi

Sorry to post this questions so please don't reply with search the forum cause I already did. Hard to figure out through so many posts and info

a. I have the lag issue. What is the most updated and safe way to fix this?

b. What is the best way to root the phone?

c. any other fixes I should look into?

d. should I backup all my phone before? how could i do that?

e. what would be the best rom to install?

f. what other things should i keep in mind?

I'm trying not to mess things up cause I'm a newbie and is my wife's phone and that makes me be more cautious. I have a G2 that so far is easier to figure out (no roms or root just temporary:) )

p.s. if I buy an app can I use it on 2 phones?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qtilt112:
easy way:

1. root with oclf (in market)

2. Install rom manager and clockwork recovery.

3. titanium backup (if you want to)

4. ext2 lagfix with oclf

i'm still on stock rooted, but eugene's or bionix roms are the way to go if you want a custom rom.

did you check the vibrant bible thread in general?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] allthrottle:
I use a one click root method and bionix fusion rom. I just recently started flashing the rom and other software on this phone so I don't have an opinion on other roms, but I couldn't imagine any being significantly better than this. I think most have been refined enough now that it comes down to aesthetic preference and options included.

I tried bionix 1.9.1 which ran well, but fusion made me come to realization that I don't prefer the touchwiz launcher. I currently use fusion with the kingklick kernel overclocked to 1.2ghz. I added the voodoo lag fix last night and I've noticed zero lag or stalling today. Not that the fusion and overclock had lag, but I really just wanted to see how smooth this phone could be. I'm very pleased with the phone now.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gottijr:
would you guys mind to post some links as towards the right threads? Would be less confusion in my head

I appreciate
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
Go to the General section sticky. All of your questions are answered in depth and have links.

I would root with the update file (no one click needed).

I would put rom manager on and clockwork recovery

make a backup of your system

If you have a number of apps, use titanium backup to save all apps+data so you can easily restore them.

download one of bionix's roms (bionix if you want TW, fusion if you do not). I LOVE Fusion. Bionix incluces TB in his rom now so you can just start restoring your apps... be sure to follow his instructions for flashing the rom.

You do NOT need a lag fix.... trust me on this. Flash the rom before you do anything like that.

The sticky is in my signature.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gottijr:
you're a good guy !
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJG2:
Sorry I'm kind of noob, and I just got my vibrant this weekend. But what's the difference between rooting it with the update file vs the one click method in the OCLF? What benefits does that have over the other?

And why do you not need a lag fix? How do I tell if my phone needs a lag fix? I'm currently running fresh stock, and I haven't really noticed any significant lag other than the occasional stalling between menus.

Thanks!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snorge:
If you notice the lag or not will depend on what phone you had before but once you install a fix it will be obvious it was there
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gottijr:
i'm a noob and just figured some basic steps as rooting, lagfix, flashing a ROM like bionix fusion 1.1 (the new one, guess i was one of the firsts to install it) after running into some issues I've managed ... and tell you the truth if you have some it knowledge is really worth. The phone ROCKS now.

rooting is good for stuff like removing system applications (that you don't need), making backups, flashing new roms other the stock one (the one that you have now "stock") little bit more "advanced stuff"

lagfix: well i've noticed the lag later after I installed some apps. More apps. Big lag ... annoying. Phone got very slow. that's why you need lag fix (but if you flash Bionix Fusion for ex than you're fine no more lag fix)

If you're interested in some help I'm willing to help considering some guys around helped me too so I'm just returning that to the comunity :)

pm or post here if need some step by step how to.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dcpetterson:
Just flashed fusion JAC and I'm getting some lag, what's a good lag fix? Voodoo? OCLF?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RockHead:
I've used Bionix and Fusion (both with undervolt/overclocked + Voodoo lagfix). Just flashed eugene's latest Froyo last night. If you can live without the GPS functions for now, the Froyo ROM is fantastic. It fixes a lot of the gripesI had with the UI of the 2.1 ROMS-I can have my Google calendar as my default calendar for new appointments, Contacts are cleaner while still having social media integration, I can actually use Skype, Flash, and all of the other Android 2.2 goodies. There's no lag with this ROM right out of the box.

It's so much better that I will live without the GPS features for now and use it as my daily driver. Read the opening post here.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ^Fs:
^This

I hear bionix 1.9 final + kk + ext2 lagfix is boss
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shuka325:
Can't use OCLF with Fusion. Have to use Voodoo or the EXT2 provided in the OP. Voodoo is great as long as you are confident you are able to 1. remember to disable before flashing anything else and 2. ABLE to disable before flashing anything else.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gottijr:
I've got bionix fusion 1.1 the one released last night as well

it rocks for me. By the way my navigation is working. And it has the new nice navigation application. I just had to wait a little bit longer.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr. Apocalypse:
i would not recommend using OCLF....

i would flash the new Bionix Fusion ROM w/ KK OC/UV kernel then apply the EXT2 lagfix.....ITS SO ****IN FAST!!!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJG2:
Wait I still don't understand.. what's the difference between the oclf and the ext2 lagfix and why shouldn't I do the oclf? Thanks.
[Captivate General] Bowsa2511:
As many of you may know.. WP7 is set to release soon (already released in some places in Europe) and I saw that there's a Galaxy S equivalent for WP7

The Samsung Omnia

http://www.engadget.com/2010/10/20/samsung-omnia-7-review/

It's the same specs

screen

cpu/gpu

camera

with the exception of the buttons..

But since it's almost the same hardware with a different OS, wouldn't one be able to port it over to the Captivate or set-up a dual-boot so we can truly have the ultimate phone :D

The HD2 is doing pretty good, and should soon have wp7 ported.

Device drivers shouldn't be that much of a problem.. what do you guys think?
[Captivate General] ProfessorAsian:
I'd love it. WP7 is pretty damn sweet.
[Captivate General] zelendel:
Come on guys please use the search, this has been gone over many times. will it happen?....maybe. Will it be anytime soon....most likely not. MS has locked WP7 down pretty good and it is gonna be awhile before it is cracked let alone portable.
