Question regarding the SM ULK options in recovery.

For Supernova, quite a few people said that the fix that people are using for Market and Youtube is reinstalling root through recovery - there are three different options available:

Simple: install busybox+su

Adv: also rm some toolbox commands

Ext: also rm most toolbox cmds

What does each option do?
[Captivate Android Development] JGGW:
+1 very curious to know what these functions do?
[Captivate Android Development] guika:
Hello hardcore is it possible to put in the clockwork in the tweak session to use 30# less brightness tweak.

It will reduce the automatic brightness mode with 30percent.

What do you think?
[Captivate Android Development] GGXtreme:
Hmm, well I managed to fix my USB issues somehow (eg. it just started working again :o). K13B is fantastic, it's like I can't even think of any improvements that would push for an update.

As for battery life, I can't say that it's good or bad, but I can say that my experience is very inconsistent. After several attempts to recalibrate the battery, every time I unplug gives me a different result. Sometimes the battery meter stays full, sometimes it drops to anywhere between 99 and 94%. About 50% of the time, my phone will get sleep death soon after unplugging (regardless of battery level), but if it doesn't happen, I never encounter it until it is plugged in again.

My battery life seemed somewhat poor at first, but a couple of days ago, my battery life stopped going down at 71% and stayed there for many hours before draining very slowly, netting me a total 26 hours of moderate to heavy usage (videos, music, apps, wifi, calls, texts, etc.) entirely off the charger, the best I've ever seen :eek:. Today, it has barely been 8 hours and I'm down to 35% with only moderate usage (texts and some wifi). Any suggestions on how to get more consistent results with battery?
[Captivate Android Development] xreflection:
Hmm..Kind of weird...I turned on the memory tweak and now my battery stays at 100 when I unplug instead of going down to the 98%. Is that bad? lol
[Captivate Android Development] guika:
I have realised that if i put on charher at night and remove it in the morning its drops if i unplug in time when it says 100 then it will stay on 100. So it seems that the device switch off charger at 100 and it will turn on when it rech a specified level. Could someone confirm this?
[Captivate Android Development] phlunkie:
Testing 13c now. Noticed only 3 recommended tweaks now. Curious to the change. Thanks by the way.

Edit: reading the change log, and it says "kernel scheduler tweak removed (seems to be more consistent without it). " Answers my question.

Sent transparently through the tubes.
[Captivate Android Development] hardcore:
That's what we have guessed from the behaviour of the new drivers in the 2.2.1 kernel source. This is similar to how laptops charge their batteries.

BTW about the lower brightness thing - probably not because it's a bit more complicated to do that without affecting current settings.
[Captivate Android Development] color0:
Also testing K13C right now. K13B had very poor battery life compared to K13A, granted I couldn't test for any more than 2 days each, but the battery would drop 2% an hour with K13B vs. 1% every 2 hours with K13A. Hope K13C brings back the awesomeness of 4-day Captivate usage. :)

Hardcore, I don't think this was answered last time I asked, is there any possible reason why I can't ever use the CWM versions of your kernels successfully? The build numbers should be the same I thought, but I can only ever get good results with an Odin-flashed Speedmod kernel.
[Captivate Android Development] electroau:
I don't know what hardcore did to 13c but it flies and had unbelievable memory. I can get 200 mg free, after clearing. Best ever by far.
[Captivate Android Development] dang3r1917:
What do you mean you can use CWM versions successfully? I've always flashed CWM versions through SGS Kernel Flasher and never had any problems. But I also never flashed Odin versions, so maybe I am missing out on some performance? Could you elaborate?
[Captivate Android Development] xreflection:
Have you tried to flash back to a stock rom and then try flashing using CWM? Maybe something was left over from a previous flash that is screwing with it. I always use CWM because its easier and faster.
[Captivate Android Development] guika:
Thx i flashed over 13c. I will check this issue with this version also. And i will report it to you.
[Captivate Android Development] xreflection:
Each time I flash speedmod I don't think its possible for my phone to get faster, but it does. This time I flashed K13C in conjunction with Darky 9.3B1. My phone is so freaking snappy now. Granted its still not quite as snappy as an iphone4, but its getting damn close.
[Captivate Android Development] dave1977nj:
Thanks for the update keep up the great work!
[Captivate Android Development] GUARDIANBD:
i have great reception with Preception 10.4

Kernel firebird 1.0 V2

I9000UGJK4 Modem

on samsung Captivate

but the volume it the earpiece is too damn low during call...

how to increase peremantly the volume on the handset?

will this kernel do the job??
[Captivate Android Development] GGXtreme:
Can anyone support/rebut this claim? I have always been curious as to how each of the different mount options (rfs/jfs/ext2/ext3/ext4/ext4nj) affect performance and battery life, but considering how long it would take to try all of those on my phone I haven't tried them all myself.
[Captivate Android Development] jcollake:
Thanks for your kernel work ;). I use it on my phone, works great. I've always felt the CPU scaling is not aggressive enough. I just updated to the latest version.

To those (like the previous poster) who want to know how to apply it.. it couldn't be easier once you've got ClockworkMod installed. You just 'install ZIP from sdcard' in its recovery mode. It extracts the CWM named ZIP over the existing kernel, then next boot you're using the new kernel. It is that simple. The TAR archive is for manual application or use, I reckon.

To the person who has troubles, I dunno -- I never had one trouble with the previous or this version.
[Captivate Android Development] max_82:
I'm wondering, why the recommended tweaks are reduce from 5 to 3? Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] FlKTION:
Just a little bit of reading will answer all your questions
[Captivate Android Development] guika:
Confirmed that i removed from the charger asap when it reached 100 and it drops 1 immediatly. It seems 2.2.1 acting like 2.2 Only diff i used usb charger. At home i will test overnight and the normal charger.
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
After pulling it off the charger sometimes it's 98%, and other times it stays at 100%.

Either way it's not a problem.

Sent from my Captivate.
[Captivate Android Development] dbaser:
Just replace the 98% and 99% icons with the 100% icon... problem solved :D
[Captivate Android Development] jde984:
Can you imagine the freakout when someone sees their phone goes straight from 100 to 97 though...?
[Captivate Android Development] dbaser:
Couldn't be any worse than the current "OMG my phone drops to 98% immediately after I unplug it" posts...
[Captivate Android Development] nzahorchak:
If you unplug the phone when it says the battery is full, plug it back in. If you repeat this once or twice, you can get the battery to a true 100%. It's like filling a car's gas tank.

Sent from my SGH-i896 running FireFly 2.2 using the XDA App.
[Captivate Android Development] xreflection:
I believe you have to do this when the phone is off. It's called bump charging I think. It raises the level at which the battery is considered to be topped off, but if the phone is on, I think the OS kicks in and no matter how many times you do it, it'll always drop off.
[Captivate Android Development] existz:
You can actually keep unplugging and plugging back in a few times while its on and it will go to 100, you have to do it a few times though, sometimes the battery full notification kicks back on as soon as you plug it in, but if you keep doing it, it will fully charge after a few attempts

For example, full battery notification comes on at 97%, if I unplug and plug it back in, it will charge for a few min then notification kicks back on, I then unplug and plug back in and it might charge to 98-99% then notification kicks on, unplug and plug back in and then it charges for awhile and finally goes to 100% ..but sometimes it might only take me 1-2 unplug/plug back in and it goes to 100 .
[Captivate Android Development] nzahorchak:
It works whether the phone is on or off.

[Captivate Android Development] color0:
I have not flashed Speedmod on a stock Eclair ROM, but I have flashed to stock, master cleared, installed a custom ROM, and the moment I CWM flash Speedmod on top of it, all sorts of things can go wrong. Can't boot, no "go back" option in the recovery menus, bad battery life, etc. etc. More recent CWM versions have just been hanging my phone on boot (K13A-C) so I have no choice but to Odin flash.

I will try out flashing CWM K13C 250Hz and see if it makes it through the boot process.

Edit: Yes in fact it does work. Well, that's a good thing. :) Thanks again hardcore for making these!
[Captivate Android Development] sicmadek:
that is actually overfilling the gas tank. you end up filling the neck up cuz the tank is full.
[Captivate Android Development] xreflection:
Oh, interesting. I've only done bump charging once. I remember reading that the added battery juice isn't really worth it because it shortens the life of the battery overall.
[Epic 4G General] BrianDigital:
Hey guys Im a EVo user and my girl has an Epic.

Now the next statement is with either running stock or a custom rom

Her phones slows way down and reboot its required, wifi is odd sometimes a reboot to connect, and today her battery became rather hot over 100 F.

Is there anything I can try out on her phone?
[Epic 4G General] BeerChameleon:
Sounds like a specific phone harware issue, i dont get overheats or slow downs, no matter how many apps are running at the same time and even if i charge and use mobile ap all the time, still no overheats here.

Ive Done this on both stock and custom roms and no overheats or slow down..
[Epic 4G General] BrianDigital:
darn, thankyou for a reply, guess I'll update her ROM and start her off fresh
[Epic 4G General] DiGi760:
I don't get slow downs either. I leave my wifi on all day and don't have issues connecting. I only overheated once. Shortly after I got my phone I was downloading stuff left and right, playing graphics heavy games like radio ball, and trying to charge my nearly dead battery all at the same time. When I got the overheat message I figured it was a sign that I needed to turn the phone off and walk away for a little while.

Either the phone has a problem, or your girl does. (which were pretty much your choices to begin with)
[Epic 4G General] difrent7:
Yep no issue at all here usually always on wifi and I'm a heavy user. I get no slow down or anything and I'm on stock rom with bloatware removed.
[Epic 4G General] nikon120:
My phone does slow down after about 2-3 days of uptime. I'm 100% stock, not rooted. Reboot resolves the issues.

After @ 2-3 day uptime the following happens:

1. I've had issues when rotating between home screens where all my widgets & icons disappear, then come back to normal.

2. Also, sometimes my swiping isn't recognized when trying to cycle home screens.

It's difficult to reproduce on demand, thus making my case to Sprint for replacement even more difficult. So I said screw it, just hoping 2.2.1 will resolve the problems whenever its rolled out OTA.
[Epic 4G General] dennistpm:
You may be right. I would get a different girlfriend and see if the overheating/rebooting problem continues. If it stops, we know where the problem was. If the problems continue with the new girlfriend, it may be you. :D

[Windows Phone 7 General] citrix80:
it is possible to run windows mobile cab files on WP7? how?

windows mobile install most apps by load cab files into devices and double click in file explorer to install them, WP7 does not have file explorer.

are cab files actually compatible with WP7?

are there any hacker out there tried to work on this? or it simply no possible?
[Windows Phone 7 General] fb401:
short answer: no.

long answer: no. only xap files can be sideloaded.
[Windows Phone 7 General] citrix80:
cabs not comatible with WP7 or not possible to run?

are WP7 app cab or xap?
[Windows Phone 7 General] Ren13B:
WP7 uses xap's for installs. Cab's are no longer supported and do not work on WP7. No WM apps will run on WP7.

It might be possible one day to run WM apps on WP7 but I don't see it happening anytime soon.
[Windows Phone 7 General] mark andrew:
Sorry for that but there is no option to run windows mobile cab files on WP7. Cabs not compatible with WP7 and not possible to run?

not sure cabs is it compatible with wp7

but i'm sure the windows mobile cabs can't install to wp7

cause Windows Mobile and Windows Phone is totally difference System :p
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stretlow:
All of a sudden my sense, I.e the home screen swypes and the menus have gone laggy on any rom I install

Anyone any advice what it could be?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mortenmhp:
Hmm what if you return to an old nandroid backup(in case you have one) or one of the roms, that you know for sure have worked well(try the older versions)

It might be because you are trying some with data2sd. This have in my experience made everything more laggy.

Also simply using a live wallpaper makes sense noticeably more laggy than using a non live one. Hope it helps you ;)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stretlow:
Thanks for the response mate I've just switched the pond live wallpaper of and our does seem to have helped, strange though as I've always used live wallpaper
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
Some live wallpapers hammer the cpu, lots are made with powervr in mind and our gpu adreno lags, also try clearing data for htc sence in applications, you will have to redo your scenes and widgets but can fix a laggy sence sometimes
[Vibrant Android Development] pelmenept:
I am on stock jl5, and have been using it without a problem for sometime. until today when my lock pattern simply dissappeared, and changed on its own to default glass lock screen.

It surprised me, but I didn't give it too much though, and changed back to my lock pattern. And again five minutes later, phone switched back to glass lock screen. I tried all secure lock methods, but phone keeps switching back to glass lock screen, disabling all the secure logins on it's own.

Any advice?
[Vibrant Android Development] bobbbb:
1. Try rebooting, or otherwise just reflash your ROM. This will fix it most likely.

2. Post in the Q and A section ;)
[EVO 4G General] ssgunner20:
Hello everyone, not sure if this is the correct spot for this post but i wanted to know if any of you have purchased any games directly from gameloft. They are currently having a holiday sale where u buy a game for $4.99 and you get one free. Now to me that sounds like to good to be true but im still curious you know. They do have some pretty good games like N.O.V.A. and much more. Any feedback from you guys would be awesome.

Heres is the url where i found their website

[EVO 4G General] gqstatus0685:
It's a legit offer if that's what you are asking. They have a lot of cool games but I usually just wait until they offer free games and then I download them. I was able to get Hero of Sparta and Let's Golf for free.
[EVO 4G General] NewZJ:
warning about gameloft, it was confirmed that they double charged lots of their customers that purchased a game from them, I didn't have a problem after purchasing Dungeon Hunter so its not an every customer problem but there are many still having issues getting refunds

gameloft doesnt deserve my money until joining.
[EVO 4G General] jst8851:
I refuse to pay for games and apps...the phone was expensive enough..especially the stupid ten extra dollars a month for 4g (which has no coverage when you live way out in the sticks)
[EVO 4G General] nick7948:
I did this twice. The first time there was a "download free game" link that was displayed after i made the purchase, so that was easy. The second time I didn't get that same link. I ended up emailing them and they sent me a link for a free game. I personally haven't had any problems with them, but have only made 3 or 4 purchases with them since getting my EVO, so YMMV. They did take a while to respond to my email (5 or 6 days) but since it was around Christmas time I'll give them a pass on that.
[EVO 4G General] potna:
I think they have some of he best mobile games around. Silly as it may sound but I'm after console like gaming and their games are about as close as you can get. Also, EA has a deal right now , .99 cents a game. That includes nfs shift, which imo is the best looking racer we have. I remember when games were 15 to 30 dollars for games, abiet, this was before the iPhone and Android application model existed.
[EVO 4G General] DirtyShroomz:

Coming from an iPad, I was looking for a way to prop up my rooted Nook in landscape mode so that I could type with the keyboard. While the Nook isn't as ideal for landscape typing as an iPad is, it isn't bad.

I went to Home Depot and found a rubber door wedge stop that props up my Nook just right for landscape typing. They come two to a pack for $1.29 and have anti skid rubber, which helps steady the Nook.

Hi.

In first case.. Sorry for my English ;)

I have a little problem with the touchscreen on my Galaxy S.

I think it's something with firmware. Sometimes don't work about 20-30 pixels on the left and the right side.

It makes me mad, because i need move the widget from one screen to next one, and isn't working. So, i have to open SGS tools, and do TSP update (touchscreen firmwareversion). After update is Pass on the screen and everything works perfectly, BUT only for a moment (sometimes few hours, max one day).

Then i have to do everything again :(

Does anyone know what to do?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] apecross92:
try to make a nandroid backup and then reflash your firmware or do an hard reset and see what happens

No, this isn't working.. I had a lot of different ROM and I did hard reset etc. (2.1, 2.2, 2.2.1)(JPU, JPY, JM1/2)

Now I have Darky ROM 7.7 and OCUV Kernel. I thing, somewhere in phone is correct firmware, because when I did update I don't have to turn on wifi or 3g. Update is working offline and then everything work..
[Galaxy S I9000 General] thatjordankidd:
I recently tried changing my theme, i rooted my phone, Downloaded ROM manager and Clockworkmod, when i installed it all, it bricked my phone- I unbricked it by updating the firmware with Odin, but now the touchscreen is not working - At Alll.
