Sure, will be testing that agan myself as it randomly crashed on me again and proceeded to reset itself to factory settings! I then had to do the 8 finger salute and restore to 1.0.0...for the third time, hopefully 1.0.1 no longer has these problems cause it's a massive pain in the rear to have to start from scratch, even with a Titanium backup.
[Nook Color General] nook'r:
On NookDevs website it said that the update will not install on rooted nookcolor...

"Warning: Let us say that again. The update will not install on a rooted NC. You must restore the /system folder to factory by re-flashing it or you can not install the update."

getting a mixed signal in here...
[Nook Color General] Kelvala:
Is this a NEEDED update?
[Nook Color General] madsquabbles:
So there won't be returns claiming bad wifi connectivity, I'd guess.
[Nook Color General] woodsonmh:
1.0.1 downloaded automatically on my rooted nc yesturday. Many of my apps would not look. I got the feeling there were alsmost apps that used wifi in some way. Unfortunatly I did not uninstall and reinstall apps. I did get the impression su was still working. Looking on xda I found the auto nooter program and installed it.

That's when I discovere I had to uninstall re install apps. I like the auto nooter hack better than what I had before. app store gmail and otheres that I could not get working. Also I like the new softkeys app.

There has been some problems getting library books to load correctly?? I also applied touch screen calibration program posted else where. Touch screen seem to work better.

Call it curiosity - where was it shown to be bogus. I read the original article, but i have never seen a retraction or "correction". Got a link?
[Nook Color General] KitF:
The only correction I saw was no full market, I didn't see anything about no Froyo
[Nook Color General] king conan:
The "original" article was just a rumor. The latest PR from BN said only they are working on a propietary market and continuous development.

So, yes, froyo will arrive but not in january.
[Nook Color General] sleepy222:
You want to change from r/o to r/w
[Nook Color General] Divine_Madcat:
I guess i missed that too, since the only correction i saw was about the market stuff, not froyo itself

Fair enough, i stand corrected, humbled, and disappointed (i was really looking forward to froyo goodness on this beauty).. :)
[Nook Color General] thecalip:
BN should just skippy Froyo and go straight to Gingerbeard.
[Nook Color General] leeh41:
Agreed. Not sure why manufactures still waste time on 2.2 since it already "outdated" with the release of 2.3.
[Nook Color General] echto:
Mine did, tonight. I was reading and set it down. I pressed the power button and as I turned my head away from the table I watched it reboot out of the corner of my eye. I was like, wtf? a crash? Nope, it updated to 1.0.1. I was rooted.
[Nook Color General] droiddog:
Did it unroot you?
[Nook Color General] greenmky:
GingerBEARD! Is that a pirate of some sort? :p
[Nook Color General] echto:
Yes it did.
[Nook Color General] amp711:
I used the script to disable the over the air update and it didn't.. somehow the update still came down and proceeded to hang my Nook. Finally a hard factory reset brought it back online..

I'm going to wait for the dev team to release the replacement ROM rather than re-rooting..
[Nook Color General] zeroh:
Mine did the same thing as well a day before Christmas. I then decided to do the reset, upgrade to 1.0.1, and reroot. Now, I'm back to where I was... until there's another update. :rolleyes:
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aimfire72:
The volume buttons on my NS seem a little loose and rattle a bit, more than compared to my Vibrant. Anyone else have this? Just the way it's designed or a defect?

Otherwise, very impresses with the NS so far! :)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fr4c:
Pretty solid on mine, no give and does not rattle even if I shake it.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Superfrag:
Pretty solid.. and I'm not going to shake it or do something to possible make it worse!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joshfu13:
Mine rattles like crazy and it's super annoying. I guess if others don't do this then I should exchange mine.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aimfire72:
Hmm, not good then, lol. I hope my BB has more in stock to do an exchange... Compared to my power button, the volume button(s) are very loose, make a rattling sound every time I even slightly touch it.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darrien13:
mine is but im ok with it. My unlocked one does the same the power button is not loose while the volume button is.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smokexz:
Nothing wrong with mine, no noise or rattle.

Sent from my Nexus S
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EpicSurge:
exchange it, my vibrant had the same issue and i got one with sturdy buttons
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joshfu13:
What a pain. I just had everything customized and setup the way I like it and now I have to wipe it and get a replacement because of a crappy plastic volume button.

But at least there is a retail location to handle an exchange unlike the N1.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzeh3:
Fold a small piece of paper, take the back cover off, slip it in the gap of the volume rocker that goes into the hard back of the phone and that takes care of the problem ;)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] newter55:
Hmmm..brand new 500 dollar phone and solution is stuff some paper in there...nice
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzeh3:
hahaha it worked for the vibrant and it works for this too =D
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kolyan:
Many galaxies have this. Not a big deal for me.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aimfire72:
Thx, that's a good idea re: the paper.

I was actually able to exchange mine today no problem, but had to drive 40 minutes to another BB that had a few in stock. This new one has a slightly loose volume button, but not as bad as the first one.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barmanham:
Mine is a little loose then my vibrant but I can live with it
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jblade1000:
just shook the hell out of mine. no rattle. have a vibrant, also doesnt rattle.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DumbUglyDragon:
Eh... mine Just started to rattle. Not if I shake it, but if anything touches it. If I lightly touch it it will rattle. As if there isn't enough spring tension or more like the button is to small for the slot in the case. This is going to bug the hell out if me. I love this phone and its all finally customized how I want! Should I wipe and exchange it, or will they think I am crazy?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mighty07:
Same problem here.

The volume buttons are quite loose and I hear some rattle when I shake it.

But that's Samsung.

I know in some cases the Nexus One had problems with the power button, but at least there were no loose parts. :)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joshfu13:
So I went to best buy to see if the loose button was just how its made or a defect. The employee took a few nexus's out of the boxes and they all had the same "loose feeling". Maybe loose is the wrong word; it just isn't solid like the power button. So I guess were just stuck with it. This is still a hell of a phone, just had some pretty high build quality expectations following my N1.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Superfrag:
Well, the Nexus 1 did have a big problem regarding the power button.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sh8dyDan:
Its not loose. Yes, it does rattle and wriggle. Not going to fall out or break. It is because of the design of the buttons that they make noise. More so in the way that they attach to the main body of the phone with the internal backplate. The paper trick fixes the problem.

I opened my Vibrant for the FFC Mod and the buttons just fall out almost as soon as you take off the backplate.

Its all good, don't worry or exchange it. They all have the same problem to some degree and if they don't it will happen over time.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anderdroid:
Or take the battery cover off, unscrew and take the back off, get a little bit of plato... you know where i'm going with this ;)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barmanham:
I looked at like 3 other nexus s's and they all had this issue I used a piece of notebook paper anything thicker and the case wont close fully and i sharpied it black works
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] onthecouchagain:
My volume rocker is a little loose as well. It's not a deal breaker by any means, but it's a shame to feel a loose component on an otherwise surprisingly sturdy build; no creaking bezel (like the Vibrant) and the snap on back case is really tight. I just feel like the volume rocker is a little too long and comes out a little more than it has to. Of course, this is nitpicking.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brutus_2552:
I returned as phone due to static call issues and the volume button on that one was just like power button not loose at all .. this one tho is loose and its annoying lol. And am still having static issue when I call some one. But its only when I'm driving and if I let off gas it goes away. Weird
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Luxferro:
sounds like the problem is really your car. You really should be getting RF interference from your car.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SubyWill:
Mine is pretty bad. IMO.

I even took a video of it.

But, I put a little piece of paper in it and it's all good now.:o

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sampainho:
Well, it's almost a one year delay answer, but my Nexus S volume buttons have zero looseness! The buttons are perfect

On the other hand the front ring (around the screen) is a little bit loose and the back cover on the top left (near the camera) is a little big loose as well. Nothing big, only when I squease it.

This is my second Nexus S, since the other one had 5 dead pixels, this has a little looseness! GRRRRRR...! :mad:

So, I've placed some peaces of paper near on the respective places and now it makes no sound at all. :)

I'm going to wait a few more days to think about returning or not. But honestly I´ve already root it, flashes it and I'm also afraid the next one brings some other new surprise! :eek:

Samsung's "S" generation quality of construction just simply suck!

thanks
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steviewevie:
What ROM and what radio are you running ?

My Desire Z makes calls fine when my Wi-Fi is switched on.

Are you sure it's to do with Wi-Fi and not just a problem with your SIM card - e.g. loose/faulty/dirty ?

I don't use Sense myself, but I think it's important that the Virtuous team is recognized for all THEIR hardwork. As humble as you are in your post, you & your team deserve recognition for your efforts too.

Your contributions are definitely not without merit and appreciated by many, many people. You guys are important in your own way for making the community (G2/DZ & beyond) what it is, so thank YOU for your hard work.

Hi.

Excuse my ignorance, but trying to find out how to update stock kernel to this.

Tried searching, but rather new to Android and there seems to be a lot of varuois advise.

Am I to understand that all I need to do is download for example the pershot kernel, put it on my SD and make a fastboot update? Since it contains a "boot.img"

Or is ADB involved?

Simply put, how would I upgrade my "old" stock kernel?

And before upgrading, how would I go ahead and backup my old. Nandroid?

Thanks for your time.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] catachresistant:
If your sig is current, then your first step should be to S-Off. Check one of the stickies.

Then the easiest way to go about updating the Kernel/doing a backup would be to grab Rom Manager off the Market and flashing ClockworkMod.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bahmanxda:
Thanks alot for the kernals everything works on desire z fine fm radio etc..

the only problem i am having is the phone freezes if i set the max fre over 1094 mhz on set cpu it allows over clocking to over 1400 mhz right? well i am a proper noob though so maybe i am doing something wrong? i need to change a setting perhaps?:D or maybe this kernal is not for overclocking ?

thanks

or maybe i am just unlucky and 1094 mhz is the max my phones cpu can handle since every cpu is unique?

Random black-screen on wake-up

Tried both 1.2 and 1.3, same problem.

The issue is: When I wake up my phone from sleeping( either using Power Button or D-Pad), I have random chance to get a black screen. It's special, unlike those "freeze black-screen", the "home,MENU,Back,Search" buttons below the screen light up normally,open the keyboard and the backlight will turn on too ,but not the screen, it just remain black.

When I press the PowerButton again, the screen light up for about 0.1s (I can see the lock screen) then back to sleep.

Sometimes I have to press the Powerbutton several times get the screen on. but sometimes it works just fine.

I have no problem with the "Unmodified kernel" from ROM Manager, but when using these two kernels, it happens again.

Is there any solution or similar case?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] JCreations:
Just installed the CM kernel on my DZ with stock sense rom. Everything seems to work perfectly. Setcpu works great with it. I can OC to 1.5ghz with small steps.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] buzmay:
What are the difference in between the kernels??

Using 1.3 atm and no problems at all whatsoever. However I would like to know the differences in between kernels. Does anyone know?

Thanks in advance
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] olobex:
I can confirm this black screen on wake up as reported by jzhyok while I am test running right now the CM 1.3 kernel on my german DZ with unmodified Sense ROM, perm root, s-off.

I used setcpu with 1.5ghz and 1.2ghz with same results, just in case this could make a difference.

One more thing. My DZ instantly froze when I changed the governor from on demand to smartass in setcpu while I was at 1.5ghz with this CM 1.3 kernel, so I removed battery and now stay with the on demand governor.

Any fix for this anoying black screen wake up problem and any hint for the smartass governor? Which governor would be better, on demand or smartass?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] JCreations:
I can also confirm the blackscreen bug.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] olobex:
I gave the pershoot 1.2 kernel a try. The black screen on wake up still is there, but by far not that often as with the cm 1.3 kernel, at least I think so based on this very short test. I also tried to set smartass governor with this kernel and my DZ froze again almost instantaniously. I removed the battery and rebootet. This time smartass governor was still selected when I went back to setcpu. Smartass seems to run the phone at 768mhz when phone is on, clocking up gradually step by step when more speed is needed, but not going below 768mhz as I could see in my short test. I read in some thread that smartass will clock down to 245mhz when phone display is switched off, saving power. I will stick with this kernel for a while.

Hopefully there will be a fix for the black screen on wake up.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bahmanxda:
I also get the black screen on wake up. it doesnt happen everytime though
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] buzmay:
I sadly suffer from the same problem is there any solution to this? Thanks for the effort though
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] JCreations:
Not sure is this is true or not, so please confirm. When i'm charging my phone i didnt had any blackscreen issues.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] buzmay:
I m experiencing plenty of black screens, so bad :( hope this could be fixed soon.

***EDIT*** I am trying Pershoot 1.2 and so far seems not to have blackscreens problems. Will report later how it goes.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] buzmay:
Have now tried both of this kernels, and even though Pershoot was giving less black-screens, both of them made my device completely unusable when the device was ringing. I was not able to neither answer nor turn of the ring volume nor nothing, so therefore I am going back to the 1.2 godspeed kernel.

I really hope this issues can be fixed because they are great kernels.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] more2come:
I encountered the blackscreen twice today, but never when somebody called. Never had something like this with cyanogenmod though.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jzhyok:
BLACK SCREEN on WAKE-UP

I think I fixed this on my phone.

The CPU is too fast when sleeping ;-)

I set a profile in SetCPU to limit my CPU speed from 2xx to 8xx MHz ONDEMAND when Screen Off.

And the wake-up-black issue is gone.

Never had issues when receiving a call.

Tested on both 1.2 and 1.3 kernels.

SetCPU: main profile: min 245 max 1497/1516 ondemand

Screen Off: min 245 max 691/806 ondemand

Try my method :-)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jzhyok:
I can't use "smartass" too, every time I choose this it hangs.

But I fixed the black-screen, read my post above.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] catachresistant:
This is all very strange, I'm not having any issues at all. Haven't got any black screens, I can use the smartass governor (amazing battery life btw), everything, not a problem.

I'm using the SupervillainZ rom, what about the rest of you? Stock Sense?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jzhyok:
As you can see in the title of this thread, this kernel is for HTC SENSE ROM Users.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] catachresistant:
Um. SupervillainZ IS a Sense rom.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] more2come:
This morning I had a strange problem with my phone. I use Gentle Alarm every morning, works like a charm. Never had a problem before, since I flashed Pershoot's Sense-Kernel.

This morning, the alarm worked as always, but the touchscreen didn't.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] schriss:
I can confirm this happens on my STOCK Desire Z. The only stuff I did was to use Visionary to get root and s-off and I'm using SetCPU.

So whatever happens, it's not related to the kernels. I did not flash any ROMs/Kernels yet.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Eclypz:
Works great for me. No black screens or the other issues mentioned here.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jzhyok:
if you are running at 806MHz, there shouldn't be any problem

try to make it 1.49 or 1.52 GHz(no SetCPU profile)

Tried pershoots on euro DZ but had a lot of blackscreens on 1.2 ghz (was working well on 1.2 with godpseed kernel module). Also my 3G/HSPDA stopped working so I recovered my image today.. hoping for a fix :-)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] fastludeh22:
Guys if you read the OP you will see these kernels are modified to work with Sense roms, HOWEVER in their "stock" form these kernels are for AOSP, which means the unmodified version works on stock rom.

I run my stock w/root rom and pershoots kernel. Awesome performance and bat life. Just grab the kernel from pershoots oc/uv/neon kernel thread.
