2 EVOs i know of love the kernel :P

Either way I'm going to be doing some investigating and work out a new build soon, it just hasn't been updated over the weekend because I've been too busy to look at anything.

I know of an issue i created (incidentally) with the smartass governor. It could be what is causing the random reboots, I'm also going to up the voltage for the higher clock rates, so overclocking is a better possibility (and again, maybe remove the static undervolting as it could be causing the reboot issues as well)

I'll get to it tonight :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] thanatos_evo:
'lo

I plan to flash the 0.4 BFS. I have CM6.1 with the stock kernel. I've flashed a kernel once before, so not 100% certain about the procedure. I plan to back up apps with Titanium, nandroid backup, data/cache/dalvik wipe and then flash the zip.

Is that the way to go? Or should I reinstall CM6.1, gapps and then kernel? Thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] juancaperez2000:
you only need to do a nandroid back up then flash if if something fail just restore you backup
[EVO 4G Android Development] luisrcastillo:
Any tips you can provide on how to achieve such great battery life? I'm only getting about 10-12 hours on moderate use
[EVO 4G Android Development] LifeInTheGrey:
Well, there are several factors in my setup that I think boost battery life. I only have a couple widgets have refresh VERY infrequently, and I don't have any ongoing applications (like IM services) running a majority of the time. I have Email Exchange set to Push, which I found actually used less life than if I set it to Pull every hour. In truth, though, I think my biggest contributor is Super Power.

It's an app available for free on the market that does many things, but the big deal is controlling radio activation. While your phone sleeps, it keeps mobile data off and activates it on an interval (I have mine for 2 minutes every 30 minutes) that you set. It also activates it whenever you turn on the screen. It sounds pretty much like Juice Defender because ... well, its exactly like Juice Defender, but I found it worked MUCH better and more smoothly (zero lag of turning 3G on, I hated that with JD). It also has the setting Night Mode, which turns off mobile data for the interval specified (1130-600 for me). I drop 1-2% during the night as a result.

But yeah ... other than that, not much thats crazy. In spare parts, set the power button policy to sleep, I use ZenDroid kernel with the smartass governor on SetCPU (like interactive, but keeps the CPU very low while sleeping) ... just keep messing around with the settings until you find something that works.

Best of luck. :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] luisrcastillo:
Thanks for the info. I will give it a shot
[EVO 4G Android Development] thanatos_evo:
Great, thanks for the tip. I now have 0.4 running, can't believe it's "Alpha"!

*general stuff*

I got around 1175 on QS, and have max freq. set to 1075 on the smartass governor (apart from profiles for low batt., screen off and high temp). I also have Super Power set to do... a bunch of things. With about 3 widgets I lost 4% charge in the last 10 mins (of course, I was busy tweaking). Considering I have a 3000mah battery, I'm curious to see how all this work out over the day and beyond.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bbedward:
Have a new 0.5 bfs build, for those with issues I want to see if they're resolved (specifically the random reboots)
[EVO 4G Android Development] bjrmd:
Is there a problem with the wired headset button control?
[EVO 4G Android Development] DraginMagik:
.4bfs worked fine for me. .4cfs had 2 hissy fits, one was slow seize up and the other was a overheating...rebooting fixed both.

just loaded up .5bfs

where does smartass governor fit? more like interactive or ondemand? haven't been able to find anything on it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] BlueHarford:
this kernel hates my phone, its the only one that kills the phone, i tried 10 diffrent settings. best quadrant scores are 432. Its SOOO slow, i do a dalvik and cache wipe before flashing... am i missing something?
[EVO 4G Android Development] LifeInTheGrey:
What are your settings? Governor?

Ride that evo train
[EVO 4G Android Development] OgremustCrush:
.5 still has bluetooth wake lock bug :(
[EVO 4G Android Development] halorin:
Using the latest BFS kernel with the Interactive governor. Running well so far. Using the smartass governor my phone takes a while to turn on, requiring the long power button hold.
[EVO 4G Android Development] BlueHarford:
245min 113max

tried each governor
[EVO 4G Android Development] driguez:
Dude are you serious???
[EVO 4G Android Development] driguez:
Try 245 min and at least 998 max

Nvmnd I think it was a typo, a fresh install would be my next step.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dadoc04:
yup... came here to post the exact same thing.

I was using bluetooth in the car and when I hit the power button it rebooted.

guess im going back to .4 for now
[EVO 4G Android Development] Igotsanevo4g:
Good thing I don't use bt.

Your kernels are smokin for me. Thanks :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] Cloudizzle:
.5 is running nice. 384/1036 interactive. everything is running nice and smooth. QS scores 1656--1802 ten runs. most were in the 1700 range. Keep it up
[EVO 4G Android Development] BlueHarford:
yea i ment 1113mhz lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] jerrygon:
got a few random reboots while using .5...
[EVO 4G Android Development] thanatos_evo:
I had some serious issues with 0.4 when I tried playing music. I have CM6.1 and use the stock music widget. The songs sounded *really* garbled and would skip randomly. The whole phone just locked up and performance grinded to a halt.

I had SetCPU with the smartass governor with max @ 1113 Mhz and min @ 245. I also enabled profiles, but none of them were active. Back to stock kernel now.
[EVO 4G Android Development] paranoid android85:
you should try it at 1036/245. i havent had a problem other then then 1 reboot since i flashed .5
[EVO 4G Android Development] thanatos_evo:
What governor are you using?
[EVO 4G Android Development] paranoid android85:
personally i like to use performance, but interactive is good too
[EVO 4G Android Development] LifeInTheGrey:
1960 Quadrant on 0.9b? While still coming soon? Why must thou teaseth! :p
[EVO 4G Android Development] paranoid android85:
oh yeaaaa. i wonder how long we will be teased
[Galaxy S I9000 General] MarkVibrant:
I was having a problem where no matter what I did I could not get the 850 band back. Even going through the DEBUG menu, and the *#2263# menu.

I solved my 850 band drop issue. Below is how.

I had updated my Bell Vibrant i9000M to the European version of Froyo through Samsung Kies, by doing the trick that makes it think the i9000M is an i9000 from Europe. I was working perfectly... until I decided to drop my phone out of 3G one day as I wanted to save battery life...

Anyway... I could not get it back into 3G. I tried the methods described in several posts. It was then that my partner (who had done the same thing to his phone) noticed that there was a "missing" menu item. The menu under WCDMA shows items 1 through 6, but the number 5 is missing. By choosing 5, I was able to get the 850 band back.

Here's the instructions:

Dial: *#2263#

Select option [2] for WCDMA BAND

Note how the items are numbered sequentially. My menu was missing option [5]. and [6] was listed as an 850 band.

Hit the Menu key, then hit "Key Input" and type 5 then Ok.

This will allow you to select the 850 band.

If you now go back into the *#2263# menu after doing this, you will see the 850 band is now selected and is option [5]. WDCMA 850 (FDD V)

After you have done this you can go back in and select "Automatic" and it will remember your 850 band.

My phone details:

Bell Vibrant M running Froyo

PDA: I9000XWJP6

[Galaxy S I9000 General] radeon_x:
Thanks for the info!

I'm curious, has your phone ever suffered the low signal freeze issue that is so common on Bell with the I9000? I'm wondering if the euro firmware fixes that?

My phone locks up so often it's virtually unusable, so I'm thinking of upgrading before we get the official Bell 2.2.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] st4rk:
If it helps i have this problem on the jpo firmware.. only in 3g though 2g working fine..
[Galaxy S I9000 General] opensourcefan:
I'm running froyo (docs v6) and have been for a few weeks now, no lockups like you mentioned. Actually, for the past week I have been using only 850 with amazing results. 1900 in my circle of life is not required.

Sent from a Bell I9000m running Froyo.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] MarkVibrant:
No I do not suffer the lock ups. It might be that I am in downtown Toronto so have never experienced a weak signal. My partner just flashed a Bell Vibrant i9000M to the Chainfire one and claims it works awesome and hasn't had any problems yet - except that he had to do the SAME trick mentioned at the top of this post to get the 850 band back.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Slick2020:
Wow man thank you very very very much. The only solution i thought existed was to flash it but this worked out for me.

If I could pat you on the back right now I would, believe me
[Galaxy S I9000 General] pmp.s:
hey there i tried this but am still connected to 1900 plz dial *#*#0011#*#* and check which band is in use?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Felixpau86:
I did this, it works but wont switch to 850 at all.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Grashoper:
What is the 850Band used for anyway?? Data, or Voice? Correct me if i'm wrong, but Bell has 3 bands?? What is each band used for??
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Samdroid_G_S:
850 band tend to have the strongest signal even though there not the fastest. You will more then likly notice its gone once your inside a building.

Im in Toronto so im constantly on 1900 outside but inside buildings it usually switches to 850 alot of times.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Grashoper:
Didn't work for me! Once the menu item is added, and its selected (to stay on 850 only) and then back out, and select automatic, the #5 option dissapears, and #6 comes back....and once again, becomes an invalid menu item. Any ideas how to retain that #5 menu?? I'm using Doc's JPA rom.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Dr. Cool:
I've got the missing '5' entry too. And, my phone has issues which sound like they might be caused by the missing 850 band. The fix doesn't work for me though, as it keeps reverting back to the 'missing entry' state.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] striker456:
if you go down to combi bands and select it there, i believe it fixes it as well. i remember someone saying that in another thread, but as i didn't have the problem in the wcdma menu, i never had to use that method.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] byazici:
Hey all,

Here is the situation:

I recently purchased a German (Im not German) Tmobile htc desire. Its not locked, as I tried and used my own carrier without a problem.

I was able to load leeDroid 2.2e on it and it works, but I still have that rotating pink circle at boot and I really want to try the stock ROM.

I tried the goldcard (the Goldcard software and also the HEX) method with stock RUU, but got the Error 131 and it didnt work.

Is there any way to load the Stock Rom, to get rid of this branding and to try the stock ROM for a change?

Thx.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] byazici:
Before anyone asks, I read about 80 sites with different similar and different methods and couldnt get it to work, so, I did the search but still no go:(
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
You just need a T-Mobile RUU file, and you don't need to use your gold card either

EDIT: If you want to go back to stock but UNBRANDED then you'd need the latest WWE RUU and a working gold card - if you're getting errors about the CID then your gold card isn't working
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] byazici:
I tried every Goldcard method that I can find but, like I said, Im willing to try again.

Is there any recoomendations to the best description of making a Goldcard, any links?

Thx.
[Droid Incredible General] wackwad:
Hey,

Does anyone know where I can get a flashable stock kernel ?
[Droid Incredible General] ghostrida:
Do you have a nandroid? You can restore the boot.img but you may need to copy over the wi-fi module also.
[Droid Incredible General] wackwad:
Hey,

Yes, I do. I did that and wifi did not work. Where is the kernel module for wifi located?
[Droid Incredible General] jtcarnes:
I don't know where to get the kernel that comes with CM6, but I've been using the inc-test2 kernel from here: http://koush.tandtgaming.com/htc/inc/ for a while and been very happy with it. That's one of Koush's mirrors, BTW, so no fear about loading it onto your phone.
[Droid Incredible General] wackwad:
Thanks, ill give it a shot.
[Fascinate General] billypunk81:
My Fascinate is rooted properly

Since then, I've installed SetCPU and Titanium Backup from the market...

Shortly after, my phone stopped being able to Download Apps from the Market...

So I uninstalled both programs

The Market says "Currently Downloading" but the Taskbar never shows it happening, and the little download bar in the App spins for a while and just stops.

I even left a simple game downloading overnight to no avail

I also tried clearing all the caches- download manager, market, etc...

Help!
[Fascinate General] pkopalek:
Try canceling your downloads, logging into Talk, then trying again? Or cancel downloads, reboot, log into google Talk, then open Market
[Fascinate General] jrobinsky:
having the same prob
[Fascinate General] Redwing:
I had the same problem. Clearing all the cache and data for market and google apps worked for me.Though a google search has revealed results may vary.
[Fascinate General] zachchen1996:
This happens to me and many many people ALL THE TIME. The worst part is that there is never one reason why this happens or one fix. You just have to be lucky. I AM GETTING SICK AND TIRED OF THIS HAPPENING TO ME AND EVERYONE ELSE. Hopefully when froyo comes or something it will not happen anymore.
[Fascinate General] billypunk81:
what does google talk do?
[Fascinate General] chopper the dog:
@billypunk81 That is a quick google for an answer.

And in the future please use the general forum for any and all questions. Unless you are developing something don't start a thread here.

Also give this a read.

good day.
[Fascinate General] absens:
I had same issue and nothing helped. I froze 'Market' and 'Market Updater' from Titanuim then thawed both right away. Started working after that.
[Fascinate General] dricacho:
Check and make sure Background Data is on. Maybe it got turned off somehow.
[Fascinate General] ludeboy:
Try removing the 2.2 Market if you have it installed. That's what did it for me.
[Fascinate General] jfelectron:
I ran into this situation when I mistakingly restored the 2.2 Market after flashing jt's clean ROM. To solve this, I removed Vendor.apk and reflashed jt's clean ROM. That fixed things for me.

Hey guys just a request of what ive been missing for lately :) i used S2P (there's a 1.4 version on devs website) all the time and kind of missing the widget for changing music.

So maybe anyone interested in making a simple widget to control S2P from homescreen?

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Not sure could this help but anyway. Theres a S2P widget for Throttle Launcher

You can find it here

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

If i can be any help i can do the looks as long as some one does the programing :)

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] DN41:
why dont you use music widget?

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] evolutionqy7:
Cause i dont use the HTC Music Player. Im going through the add on kitchen now ill see maybe i can cook something up. But i doubt it :)

Maybe I'll give it a try sometimes.. but no promises and I'm sure it won't be soon.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mike2nl:
There is work on the nitrogen player, but it is in alpha state.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] santod040:
Yes Mike, there is.

If I or anyone else has the time, I think there will soon come S2P and others that can work with CHT.;)

It is very possible to do.

In fact the Nitrogen cab, kind of lays a framework for such things.

Though it needs a little reworking based on some changes made to Co0kie's Add-on Framework changes, since that add-on was first made.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mike2nl:
Hi santod040,

i can't write anything on XDA without that we come togehter every time, that's really funny ;).

You are so far away from me, but sometimes i think you look over my shoulders and then you

write the answer or whatever. ;)

And thank you for the information update.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] evolutionqy7:
Meh no idea regarding kitchen :)

Though my offer to skin it still stands :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jcmm:
Hello,

I have been trying carefully S2P (v1.4) and Nitrogen (latest stable version). Both designs are very good, but I think that S2P is higher in response to sound (not much difference with Nitrogen, but I appreciate it, especially with good headphones). In addition, S2P better controls battery power to Nitrogen. Nitrogen is more convenient to use by selecting the music, but if you get used to S2P ... is perfect.

Another advantage of S2P with respect to Nitrogen, is that the project seems to be alive (although new versions have to buy into Microsoft's Marketplace), while Nitrogen seems to have been dead by now...

S2P would be nice to have a plugin for the Today screen.

What do you think about this?.

Regards,
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] evolutionqy7:
Think its great :) main feature of S2P i love is that it starts music once i plug headphones in. Handy :)

So let me make it clear u have a widget made? :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Jiggs1337:
Would also love to see a CHT music player widget for S2P. I like S2U2, but CHT new lock screen is extremely versatile, so I'd like the option, and really want to be able to control S2P from the CHT lock screen.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] greenskeeper805:
I was able to do a work around with S2P and CHT. I used the mortscript files from CS2P for songnext, songpre, and songplay and make shortcuts to them and then put them on a page as free links. Can't do album art, but if someone wants to look at the mortscript files, I can upload them. The album art works with titanium so I think a dev could certainly learn from the mort files to make a widget. I'm just agronomist not dev so this is where I stop. Let me know if you need the files and I'll upload them.

Late,

Hi.

What to do? I have the newest version of kies the one that ends with 100. When i plug in my usb cable, kies does found my mobile and a upgrade pop s up telling me that i can upgrade. When i hit upgrade button it ask if i want to take a backup of my data. I say yes, and here it just Stucks. It's trying to backup my contacts but it just shows 0 % and wont move from there.
[EVO 4G General] Shushunmire:
Recently got my EVO, and encoded the same movie a few times to see how well each did with different bitrates.

I've looked all over and can't find any fix for this problem.

I've encoded Star Wars from 800KBPS-1500KBPS, every encode is.... bearable, but it's very noticeable that it's laggy. I've also used RockPlayer and the default video player for Android and still no success. Funnily enough, though, my friend's Epic, and my HD2 (On WM) play these movies just fine.

Any suggestions?

Encoded using Handbrake and MediaCoder, both with the same results.
[EVO 4G General] P_Dub_S:
When using handbrake what preset do you use first?

My Quick Handbrake guide:

preset to iphone

change container to mp4

depending on your source set width to either 1280 or 800 or whatever your sources width is at. Up scaling is not recommended. select keep aspect ratio

on audio select your source and encode to AAC mixdown to dolby pro logic II sample rate auto, never set bitrate over 160.

uncheck chapter markers

Encode movie

If your encodes are over 2GB they wont play so split em. Or you can recode with a lower resolution I suggest splitting over lower resolutions.
[EVO 4G General] Royvin:
I have had the same problem and tried a few different apps with no luck. I'm guessing it's the GPU. but very disappointed though my gfs epic plays them without a problem.
[EVO 4G General] Shushunmire:
Do you know if using a Class 6 - 16GB card as opposed to the class 2 8gb that came with the phone would cause the issue?
[EVO 4G General] Shushunmire:
Those settings worked! Thanks!
