[Galaxy S I9000 General] webstar1:
hi all, first of all i know this is a question and im posting it here and its the wrong place. It will soon be moved by a moderator. I get no replys in the i9000 Q&A or i9000 general so im asking here :D .

Ok so all my time at xda, i have been in the theming department and now this is my first go at developing. but before that, i have some really noob questions to ask. All i want to try is to port awsome roms onto galaxy.

1) first of all, if there is a rom for an another phone and you flash it, it doesnt boot up because our kernel for i9000 doesnt know how, am i right?

2) if so, can we make a custom kernel that knows how to boot stock froyo (nexus one) roms?

3)is it possible to change the entire system of our galaxy and make it stock so it is easier to port roms?

4) can i use a another rom (for i9000) as a base and then modify it to make my own rom. Basically use an another rom as a base?

And any other bits of information about roms is appreciated
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dupel:
COnsidering that cyagenmod stuff are straggeling to port it to galaxy s, with their very considerate experience and skills - I dont think you should touch it =)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] webstar1:
but can i at least get answers to my questions :D

Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Borky_16:
2) i think the Problem ist the Recovery and that stuff we must change the whole system of this f******* "Samsung made" Android and i thin its to difficult..

3) Same at 2) :)

Maybe i could answers a bit of your question?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sztupy:
I want to try to make an AOSP clone for Galaxy S (just like gaosp is for spica users) that uses as less from samsung as possible. But that's a long journey, and I'm low on free time recently. From AOSP getting to cyanogen would be easy, although getting to cyanogen from non-aosp might still be easier. And there is also the possibility that the "Nexus Two" will be very stock-like with a hardware similar to our SGS, that would hopefully make porting current and later AOSP based roms and ports much easier. Until we find that out I don't think it's worth the investment in re-creating everything from scratch.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] webstar1:
Eugene made a aosp clone but it still used twframework although everything was stock. The nptification pulldown didnt even have those tabs for wifi and stuff but when i was about to start theming it, it still had twframework-res in the framework foldrr, is the galaxy s touchwiz dependent?

I feel overwhelmed by the choices available right now, and it has been some time since I flashed.. I am using FROYO 2.2 Special Edition right now and wondered what you think is the best one going at the moment...

Important factors for me are battery.... and lag.. (isnt everyones !!!)

[Hero, G2 Touch General] saj222:
Assuming you have a Hero:

Floyo 1.1.8 is the best at the moment, imo. Followed closely by HWMNBN's 1.4.2 and Elelinux's Froyo 2.2.

Haven't really tried the CM 6.1 RC.

Flash the latest Flykernel for good battery performance. Your choice of radio version will also effect the battery performance, btw.

[Hero, G2 Touch General] tbman1996:
If you're planning to flash Floyo, I'd wait for 1.2, which is supposed to be coming out this week. Right Erasmux?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] erasmux:
My current plan is to release 1.1.9 in the next few days (it will be quite close to 1.1.8 feature wise) and hopefully hold up until CM release the 6.1 final which is what I want to based 1.2 on. A bit hard to tell exactly when CM will release the 6.1 final.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] phrag:
Checkout Floyo, by far the best i've tried =)

There's a new one out in few days apparently.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] nirmalv:
Try floyo 1.1.8 .Gives me a quadrant score of 410 non-overclocked stock config,which is apparently higher than the SE X10(1 GHZ)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] duck0:
I want to put in a word for CM6, the nightlies are great.

A nice trick for batterylife is to force the cpu to run at 352MHz while the screen is off using SetCPU (lower than that will make the backlight bug out). I use this when listening to podcasts and music while I work, lets me listen all day long :-)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] speedyg2012:
Try Elinux.

It's a 2.2 ROm which can be pretty good to use and works well with LauncherPro, but it can force close/hang sometimes on my hero.

Been using it for a few weeks now.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] erasmux:
Try flashing flykernel (see my signature), versions 11+ will default to smartass which, among other benefits, will lower the speed to 352Mhz automatically when screen is off without the need for SetCPU profiles :D.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Zebwen:
If you follow the instructions HERE it lets you build your own ROM kind of from scratch (not really from scratch, as it's using Cyanogen base, but it gives you MUCH more granular control over what goes into the ROM). The instructions include using Flykernel and the latest Radio for (what I think are) perfect results :)

[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] patrizio.marchesan:
Hello guys, sorry for my bad English.

I have flashed AP4, and after that the device does not start, stay in splashboot logo screen. I tried to flash again with AP3 (new SPL). The process is completed, but I have the same problem. I flashed more 3.5 roms but still not working. What can I do?

I want to go back to 1.20... :(

My device:

ATHE400

IPL-v2.02

ATHE400 MFG

SPL-v3.50.Olinex
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] patrizio.marchesan:
Help!!!

How can I do? My Athena is died... :(
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] ioannisman:
AP4 or AP3 are for ATHE100 (X7500 or X7501) and not for ATHE400 (X7510).

You should post in the right forum:

http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=455

Although I do not have your model my advice is to find the original rom that came with your Athena and flash it.

Also ask for help in the previous forum.

Best of luck in reviving your Athena.
[Trophy General] lagejan:
I got this phone a few days now and a dead/stuck pixel has already show up. It's red and really frustating. It's miniscul but I can't get my eyes from it. It's on the right side of the screen, a little bit above the right down corner. I can only see it when the screen is black (so in some of the apps and menus) or when it's an other dark colour. Does someone have a solution to this? I heard that it's possible to get rid of it with some special technique.

Thanks for your attention.
[Trophy General] The Gate Keeper:
i'd suggest taking it straight back to the carrier and say the product is faulty. They normally have a decent period before they say you have to go back to the manufacter, and manufacters normally don't fix it for an individual dead pixel, but you should try.
[Trophy General] interopbyt:
I've personally never had a dead pixel before, but I heard one way to fix that was by rapidly changing colors on a screen. There's an app for that :)

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hotfreaks:
Good to know I'm not alone.

I had been running an older version for a while... v 32. Hadn't had a chance to upgrade lately. Performance of v 38 is dramatically better than what I was used to....but the battery is killing me.

I did a complete wipe before the install. Does anybody know if this is going to be addressed soon in v39 or should we drop down to v 37?

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] C.Hatfield:
Also, fwiw, I've been having battery issues ever since I rooted my phone. it doesn't matter what ROM I choose, both	Kaos & NonSik Froyo's have been rough on my battery. I even have Collins battery tweak running and that hasn't helped much. I figure its just part of having the luxury of being rooted and running great ROM's !!
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] karthakon:
I haven't had any battery problems since I rooted, in fact my battery life has gotten better thanks to the more efficent battery management of froyo, and the fabulous AutoKiller.

On KaosFroyo v37 with AutoKiller set to Strict, my phone would last all day and I use it as my MP3 Player for at least an hour everyday.

I am using the Seidio Innocell 1750 mAh Battery for HTC so that's also probably helping a little. :D
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] C.Hatfield:

(i consider heavy streaming pandora, playing games, surfing the net ect)
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hungry Man:
Don't just google it... search the development forum for it. It's made by Conap and there's a v8 out already that'll probably be better.

I'm on v8 with a slightly modified Floyo ROM and I could probably idle my phone for over 100 hours.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdn1979:
Upgrading has helped my battery as well. I am running KayosFroyo v38.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] klownboots:
Complete newbie to the world of rooting. I followed all the instructions and rooted mine and my wifes eris to v38. Since then both our batteries last 2-3 hours just on idle. Set the auto killer to strict, made sure all apps were off. I even turned off the network on it. Same thing. I tried setcpu and everysetting I had would just freeze up the phone.

I just flashed cfs v6 and it almost seems like the battery is going FASTER than before lol.

I am dropping one back to v 37 to see if there is a difference. Also I did do the battery recalibrate also. I have bought brand new batteries for both phones.

Honestly at a loss here. Anyone else have such issues with their batteries?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deezy111:
Are you in an area that gets bad service? If your phone is constantly looking for 3g it will kill your battery.

Also since both phones have the same problem from the rom try switching to something like celbfroyo.

Lastly try dialing *228 to update the phone. It might help. I was having a similar problem and ended up flashing a different radio which made all the difference.

Before you mess with the radio read up on it as it can brick your phone. Good luck.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] newrooter:
i have the same problem - turned everything off and its a battery killer. i'm going to try nonsensikal ROM tomorrow. I think the KaosFroyo (3.8) is a little buggy, plus with the battery drain its worse than the stock 2.1 i was running...
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eze3484:
So im also a rooting newb and I flashed v38 and am having the same battery issues. I tried to install the kernel in recovery (wipe, flash from zip, etc) and it says it is successful but then when i reboot it sits on the skateboarding screen and doesnt do anything. I have to take the battery out and reflash v38 just to get the phone to work again.

Any ideas?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doogald:
Did you wipe Dalvik cache when you flashed the new kernel? If you didn't, try that; if you did, after wiping Dalvik it can take a little while for the phone to restart as Dalvik rebuilds.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rezanow:
KaosFroyo v38 with CFSv6 here and it runs like a dream. I had battery issues until I set the CFSv6 and all is well now. It fixed a few other issues too. As they always say though, your mileage may vary. =)
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eze3484:
Can you define a little while? I waited a good 20 minutes
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doogald:
It should be no longer than 10 minutes.

Which kernel version did you flash? V6 or V8?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eze3484:
Ive tried both, same result. I havent tried any other versions of kaosfroyo though
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DoubleByte:
Did you wipe the battery stats after flashing a new ROM? You need to charge your phone to full, reboot to recovery, wipe the battery stats and power off. Unplug from charger/USB, start the phone up and let it run out completely. Then charge back up and you should be good to go.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eze3484:
Is this for me or the OP? I don't think the battery has anything to do with the kernel freezing on startup, does it?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CondemnedSoul:
This might be a dumb question but... before you flashed the kernal did you do a full wipe or just a dalvik wipe?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tylerwatt12:
I've had a problem like this. Some things to check before upgrading.

Most 2.2 upgrades overclock the processsor.(main reason why I stick with 2.1) the upgrade boosts the CPU from 528 to 710mhz. Yes it'll be less laggy, but your battery will die 2x faste.

There's a bug with the Eris that keeps it from sleeping. Simple fix. Flash conap's CFSv6 overtop kaosfroyo. That will fix that issue

You shouldn't have to use process killers. Android has an entire subsystem devoted to that. And since advanced task is always running it'll run down your battery

At the same time make sure you don't leave fring, ebuddy, or nimbuzz open. They will keep your.phone from sleeping.

Recalibrate your battery. Simple but takes long time. Charge your battery completely. Don't gauge by the red/green light or by the gauge on the statusbar. Use either the.gauge on the lockscreen or in settings. Then unplug.charger ASAP and boot into recovery. Select wipe battery stats.

If all else fails get a new battery.

Stick with stock ROMs when possible
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrObvious:
Also make sure when you wipe the battery stats you drain the battery to where it won't turn on then charge it back up.

Anyone know what kind of battery are they using for myTouch 4G? Battery life is everything to me and I'm not the kind of person who carries around a charger all the time. I bought an EVO 4G batterry (1700mAH) for my G2 and it's amazing. With the EVO 4G battery my G2 can last up to a whole day of heavy usage.

I know myTouch 4G is running on a 1400mAH battery but is there an extended battery like how the EVO 4G battery can fit into the G2.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Whosdaman:
1700 is the highest so far
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atlp99:
I would expect the battery life on the Mytouch 4G to be pretty good, certainly much better than the EVO.

The processor is basically the same processor as the G2 clocked a little faster (1Ghz vs 800Mhz) and running Sense instead of Vanilla Android which would hurt the battery life, but the battery is larger 1400 ma, vs 1300 so I would expect the battery life to be close.

The G2 battery life is excellent, I consistently get over 18hrs with moderate usage and connected to WiFi a good bit of the time.

The Mytouch 4G battery is not as long as the G2's battery.
