[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dani897:
well to change the kernel you need to flash the zimage file that contains the kernel. this can be done in clockwork mod with the kernel zipped up in an update file with redbend, a script and some other files to make it flashable. most .zip files are clockwork flashable and most .tar files are odin flashable but could also be flashed in neldars kernel flashing app.

now i think glitterballs has some download files that are in .zip format but are just the zimage and lack the componants to make it clockwork flashable. so be carefull which file you download and if you want to flash with odin you may need to extract the zimage and archive it as a .tar file, odin might not accept the .zip, neldars app doesnt care what the file extension is.

with glitterballs steam kernel you must flash in odin or neldars app. with glitterballs non steam kernel you can flash with clockworkmod.

before you flash a kernel it is recomended to disable any lagfix you have on your phone. it may not be needed with some but it is still a good idea. i personally had trouble with the steam kernel which i flashed with voodoo lagfix already active. for some reason it will appear that you no longer have root permissions but in the thread it says after it converts the file system it will be normal again. well i tried changing lagfix options and it didnt work so i disabled voodoo and went back to glitterballs original kernel without steam recovery.

once you flash a kernel the old kernel will be lost unless you back it up. i know you can backup kernels with neldars app. the app is in the market and i believe is called "sgs kernel flasher" or something.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Silencer_007:
Oh, so to try out, say, firebird 2 (which I notice is a nice simple .zip file) I'd just execute it as "Install from SD card" in clockwork?

I think I understand what you're telling me to do, and after reading your post I think I'm going to give Glitter's kernel the finger in favor of the easier to use FB2.

To be on the safe side and to avoid me completely ****ing this up, can you break it down step-by-step for me like I was an utter moron?

Thank you for your response so far, by the way, I truly appreciate it.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thatoneguy99:
My question is how to get a certain kernel out of a ROM? I would like to use Perception 10.2 with the kernel from Perception 8, which has the best battery life for me...How would I go about getting the kernel out of Perception 8 non-oc/uv. Thank you in advanced for anyones input.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
Flash perception 10

Down load sgs kernel flasher app

Down load perception 8

Disable any lag fix if enabled by default

Open sgs kernel flasher

Choose kernel

Click ......

Navigate to perception 8 zip

Select

Flash kernel

The app should locate the zimage (kernel ) in the rom package and flash it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] channer:
From reading various voodoo lagfix threads I got the idea that it makes your SGS ridiculously fast. I want to install this on my phone, however, I have one of the fragile I9000m versions of the SGS from Bell. Is there any stable release for the voodoo lagfix for this combination?

Firmware - 2.2

Baseband Version - I9000UGJL2

Kernel Version - 2.6.32.9 shout.lee@SEP-09 #6

Build Number FROYO.UGJL2

As you can imagine, I am quite unfamiliar with rooting and such. I do not trust myself with mods as last time I did the Bell Froyo 2.2 update through Kies and my phone had to be sent to repairs because it was bricked. Any info that would shed light on the situation would be great.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] channer:
Please Help

Any help from fellow Bell SGS users would be greatly appreciated. From the Voodoo Project website, could I install the update through recovery mode or will that cause a huge problem for my phone?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dpvu:
If you are running JL2 you should be alright. They seemed to have resolved the majority of internal SD problems. Just read instructions VERY carefully and you should be fine. The easiest way to install a lagfix is to head over to the Android Dev. forum and download and install one of the Kernals. The Voodoo-based ones will automatically lag-fix for you when you reboot.

I recommend hardcore's Speedmod kernal. It has lagfix options (disabled by default) but is very user-friendly to install and use. You basically flash it then boot into recovery (volume up, home, power) and enable the options (including lag fix) you desire.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] channer:
Thanks dpvu!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Markino:
Hi all!

I'd like to install a good news/rss reader widget but I can't find a scrollabel widget working on standard LG Launcher... any idea?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] bioan:
Search in the Market for Scrollable News. It is excelent.

L.E: I don't remember if LG Launcher supports scrollable widgets. Try ADW Launcher, Zeam, Launcher Pro or GO Launcher, they support 100% scrollable widgets.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Markino:
I've tryed Scrollabel News from market but it seems that LG Launcher doesn't support it.

Since I like to keep using the standard Launcher (I can't see any advantages using other launcher, isn't it?)... any idea?

Thanks!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] bioan:
I don't wanna be off topic but LG Launcher is a lot slower than any other launcher. Try Zeam or Launcher Pro, they are excelent.

Hi mate, thanks for the tweaks, I hated the minimized GB keyboard thanks for sorting that out, will flash and let you know the outcome, btw do I need to full wipe before flashing, I am running the build#3 nightly, thanks for your help.
[Desire HD Android Development] raniop:
Hi

I have Nexus S and the keyboard is very small sow I want to know if you Can please Modified build.prop to fix the keyboard to the Nexus S I also want the correct size??

Thanks
[Desire HD Android Development] McDV:
Hi, you won't need to wipe if you already use Nightly #3. But you will need to sort your launcher-icons again. ;)

@raniop: Just open /system/build.prop with an editor and add the line:

qemu.sf.lcd_density=240

That's it! :)
[Desire HD Android Development] Dyonas:
I've got fairly large hands but the smaller keyboard seemed more accurate. I don't know if it's a tweak in how it works or if I was being more careful due to the size but that's what I found. I like the blue Nexus live wallpaper better than stock, the original reminds me of lego too much and blocky for it. With that said I'm glad someone has packaged the full thing up so I don't need to flash the unfinished cwm3 recovery.

Can you post locations of the wallpapers? I've got a rough idea and I'm going to tweak it a little to suit myself if I'm right but it'd be nice if others want to remove or add their own before flashing :)
[Desire HD Android Development] tready:
Iv just flashed this as I hated the tiny keyboard thus one is much better. Only thing Im missing is microbes live wallpaper? Apart from that is good well done m8

Lol it looks the same but bigger
[Desire HD Android Development] McDV:
Maybe, but originally the keyboard should have the larger size. My fix only sets the keyboard's lcd-density to the correct value.
[Desire HD Android Development] hamdir:

maybe it has to do with this?

[Desire HD Android Development] maddler:
Assisted GPS data is supposed to be downloaded at startup time, so there *should* be no need to use GPS Status.

So said, I found that sometimes AGPS data wasn't being (correctly?) downloaded. And forcing AGPS data download from GPS Status helped.

Another possible (and UNCORFIMED FIX) was to modify supl servers defined in /etc/gps.conf

XTRA_SERVER_1=http://xtra1.gpsonextra.net/xtra.bin

XTRA_SERVER_2=http://xtra2.gpsonextra.net/xtra.bin

XTRA_SERVER_3=http://xtra3.gpsonextra.net/xtra.bin

I removed the "xtra1" and since then GPS fix was faster.

It was even faster after installing Jan 17th (26.06.04.06) radio.

Again: this is totally unconfirmed and just worked in my case, can't grant it will work for anyone else.

Didn't tried on nightly build #11 and with default gps.conf yet.
[Desire HD Android Development] PaulKemp:
How does this rom compare to the Revolution HD with OC kernel? In regards of fastness. I know this is beta, but can it be used for normal day to day use? With exchange contacts and mail etc.
[Desire HD Android Development] maddler:
Can't about fastness, but you'll get more free memory if compared with any other Sense based ROM. I'm using it on my phone and hadn't any big issue. But keep in mind that it is a beta ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] McDV:
In CMW go to "mounts and storage" and then format SYSTEM. After that install the ROM again.

EDIT: This won't delete any of your data.

Just found that proxy configuration has been removed from latest CM7. Any clue/idea on how to configure a proxy?

Already tried "HTTP Proxy Settings" from the market but no luck.

SELF-HELP: install proxymator from market!
[Desire HD Android Development] lynxboy:
CM7 absolutely blazes any stock ROM when it comes to speed. You can OC using the stock kernel but even underclocked it has an edge over any Sense based ROM. For RC it's incredibly stable, I've had no real issues on any of the builds floating around the forum but don't use exchange so cannot comment on that. Just Nandroid and give it a go.

[Desire HD Android Development] kebong:
This is my first time flashing a rom, and I have lots of questions. I'm coming from a stock 2.2.1 Sense rom (with the buzz kernel).

1.) From what I've read in this thread, CWM 2.x doesnt handle GB's ext4 partition, and you need 3.x for that. What will I lose/gain if I update to 3.x?

2.) If I do decide to use CWM 3.x, will I still be able to go back to my Froyo's file system?

3.) How do I get back to the nandroid backup of my Froyo 2.2.1? Can I use CWM 3.x as well? Do I just restore the backup I've made? What about the filesystem?

4.) Assuming I can just go back from GB to my Froyo by restoring through the nandroid backup I made, will the custom kernel I've flashed with it also come back with the restore?

Thanks!

battery drain?
[Desire HD Android Development] pshdo:
FM Radio problem ??

Hi all.

Pleace tell me if i am the only one having problems with the new fm-radio ??

- if the fm-radio works for you ??

I have wiped all with the new working wipe.zip many times now, and also wiped all i can from cwm 3.0.0.5 menu.

Then i have installed the rom.zip and tried every release up until this #11...

When i start it it say something like: "turning on bluetooth support" and after a while it say something like: "the application do not answer" and i can try "wait" or "close" button.

Why do the fm-radio need bluetooth at all ??

I have had this problem on all CM7 i have tried with the new FM-radio, and i have no idea if anyone actually have this fm-radio working on the DHD...

So PLEACE tell me if the fm-radio work for you ??
[Desire HD Android Development] Nikola P.:
I gave up on this battery drain issue. I have now no expectations that I could in any way make my battery so much better to notice it. Unless I shrink this screen to 1inch with no back light. I use this phone as a company phone, i.e. I have about 2hours talking total each day till 4PM, and with some WiFi I have to charge it every night.

So, I stopped caring about battery drain, I have charger in my car, home, and USB cable in my laptop bag :)

Sorry, I can't answer every single question, I've got lots of other things to do and you find your answer in post #1: You can take CMW 2.5.x (newest stable release).

If you flash CWM 3 and want to go back to Froyo, you have to flash 2.5.x again, before you can restore a backup.
[Desire HD Android Development] PATLEN:
What more can I do?

MCDV Please .....What more can I do?
[Desire HD Android Development] McDV:
Did #6 still work? Try to clear cache and dalvik cache, if #6 doesn't work, your phone maybe can't cope with the Nexus S Bootanimation.

EDIT: And try to not only format SYSTEM, but also BOOT. Maybe there is a problem.

I did format everything and just can not.

To version 6 everything ok. ahhhhhhh :(

Poor WiFi connection at home

Hi, using CM7 nightly mod, and really pleased with it.

One problem that I believe has occurred since leaving the original sense rom is that the wifi reception at home is terrible. I have bought a new router which has improved reception with my other devices, which are now online throughout the house. My DHD, on the other hand, only shows a couple of bars when right next to the router, and once out of the room, it switches to 3g.

Anyone else had this problem?

Not sure where to find radio info:confused:
[Desire HD Android Development] brodos123:
I have not tested the GPS yet.

No, Cyanogen didn't recommend a version until now. Just try for yourself, I've used 26.04.02.17 for some time and now I'm using 26.06.04.06. Both of them do their job. ;)

[Desire HD Android Development] Malstrond:
#11 here,

1. Am I blind or is the "Settings -> Display -> Tweaks" menu that allowed you to hide the carrier name from the lockscreen, display the battery percentage in the status bar, etc. missing from CM7?

2. I also don't have the "8M Pixels (Wide)" option in the camera app, just "8M Pixles", so my pictures are cropped to 4:3. the "6M Pixels (Wide)" and lower settings are there. 1280x720 video works too.

3. CurrentWidget reports 14mAh instead of 5 mAh on Sense (LeeDrOiD HD). Might be because Lee uses an undervolted kernel (Apache's) though.

Other than that I haven't found any bugs yet. Except the "WLAN ****s a brick on first boot" one.

1. The setting is not in CM7

2. The wide option is a part of the HTCCamera, which is a part of the HTC sense. We cant just install it in a non-sense rom

Just released a new version #13!

After one day of testing radio 26.06.04.06 now, I'm having the impression, that the newer version switches faster between 2G and 3G and gets (A)GPS-fix a little faster - and very reliable. So maybe I can recommend it, but 26.04.02.17 will also work.

The future has to show if there are differences in battery drain.
[Desire HD Android Development] Danvad:
About draining the battery DHD CM7 mod #11,radio 26.03.02.15_M3

Looking under battery use: 1d 15h 52m 24s on battery

Display 3%

Android System 3%

GPS test 2%

Current battery level is 26% - think it is doing very well ..

Is it possible, if I use CM7 official nightly, to have the same keyboard you tweaked ? Does I need to flash the whole rom again or can I only flash something ? How can I do ?

I prefer using official roms, but I want to modify some things...

Hope you'll understand my request !
[Desire HD Android Development] McDV:
Looks good, but remember that Cyanogen's Wiki advises to use (at least) radio 26.04.02.17, because older versions have known issues with battery drain. Well, it relates to CM 6.1, so maybe with CM 7 your radio is OK. Anyway, flashing 26.04.02.17 (or later) probably won't do any harm.

Let's see which radio will be recommended by Cyanogen when they officially release CM 7! :)
[Desire HD Android Development] McDV:
Yes, you can. Just add the line

qemu.sf.lcd_density=240

to your /system/build.prop and reboot. But remember you have to do this each time you flash a new ROM. ;)

You could create a flashable zip for that, but it would replace the whole build.prop and that wouldn't be a good idea, if Cyanogen should change things inside build.prop.
[Desire HD Android Development] Danvad:
Yes I will install the new radio, as soon as I figure out how to install and use Android SDK ... ;-)

Hey guys.

Just a quick question, been on battery 9 hours and its on 80%, not done much though :/ But just a question, my stats are:

Cell standby 60%

Phone idle 33%

Android System 6%

and Display 2%

Why is the cell standby so high?! It alarmed me a bit :/
[Desire HD Android Development] McDV:
It's a relative value. If you use your phone a lot, the display and CPU will consume lots of power, so the percentage of the cell-standby is low, even if it's absolute consumotion is identical. If you don't use your phone, standby is the only consumer, so it's %-value is high. Anyway it's absolute consumption is low, otherwise you wouldn't have 80% left. That's mathematics. ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] MrYuiM:
Ah I see I see, clever man :D Thanks for verifying!
[Desire HD Android Development] zepretender:
how can I add this line ? Is there an app to do that directly ?

Thanx :)
[Desire HD Android Development] McDV:
If your are firm with linux, you can use Terminal Emulator. Otherwise you could, for example, take Root Explorer. It has an integrated Editor and manages to remount SYSTEM as writeable in order to write data. But it's not for free! Anyway, it's the best root-file-browser in my opinion.

EDIT: You can also take adb, if you know how to use it. It will be more comfortable than with Terminal Emulator.
