u don't need to install rom manager !!!
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rosser725:
I know this is a really noob question, but what is a kernel? I see them all over the developer section when i look for roms, but i have no clue what it is (sorry if this is a bumped thread).
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1107963:
I also wanna know cuz i would like to use the right kernel to my incredible....
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pianoplayer:
A kernel is the bridge between the hardware (for example processor, memory, nand) and the software (the ROM). This is why changing the kernel can have such a huge impact on battery or speed. For example, one kernel can tell the processor to work its butt off, which decreases battery, while another will tell the processor to relax, increasing the battery life but decreasing speed. Since every processor is made from different silicon, not every kernel fits all phones.

Also, in kernels another important thing is the task scheduler. The Brain **** Scheduler (BFS) basically has ups and downs in performance but the Completely Fair Schedulare (CFS) is pretty much consistent in performance. It's hard to explain. I personally prefer BFS over CFS. Also, if you want higher quadrant scores, use BFS.

Hope this helps.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rosser725:
Thank you so much!
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smtom:
AOSP or Sense - it matters to the kernel

Noteworthy when flashing a kernel -

AOSP ROMs require AOSP kernels, Sense requires Sense kernels.

Same story with Froyo or Gingerbread ROMs, either AOSP or Sense.

Bootloops happen when they get mixed.

[Focus General] RGBell:
I have a Sandisk 32GB MicroSDHC card in my Focus and I have a problem with it resetting itself every few days. I understand that there is an issue with instability with SD cards but I am wondering if, in some cases, it may be related to static eletricity. When it resets, it happens when the phone comes in contact with a surface such as my nightstand or the leather case I am using. It has never happened while I am holding and using the phone. It is a known problem that the touch screen does not respond properly when the phone is sitting on a surface. Last week it completely locked up with a black screen when I handed it to a coworker. I had to remove the battery to get it back. When is resets itself it comes back up with all factory settings. It doesn't prompt me to set it up like it does upon first boot. If I power cycle it, it comes back with everything intact and I have no problems until the next time it reboots. Perhaps this issue only occurs when an SD card is installed. The back case has a raised ridge that corresponds with the position of the SD card. I just put a piece of electrical tape on the inside back cover where the SD card is located. I will post again when I know if makes any difference.

Is anyone else having similar problems that look like it could be static related?
[Focus General] RGBell:
The tape made no difference. The phone reset itself again today. Sigh....
[Focus General] kawgirlval69:
its your sd... it is not stable... theres many many scenarios that the bad sd cards cause... 3/4 of the info in the working sd list thread is good... so far not seen a 32 that is stable... still waiting for the samsung that was supposed to be released last month... a 16gb thats solid till then is the samsung...

1. My battery is not holding a well as with other roms

3. A lot of application errors, Google Maps keeps throwing errors now.

Otherwise, I love this ROM. I like the customizations and the graphics rock....
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
1. Try downgrading to PRI and NV 1.77, better battery life for most users

2. Try the gps fix, if not done yet

3. Did you flash the latest gapps with the rom?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] edoy56:
My battery life is decent, although dies quickly with 3g turned on. I'm going to experiment with a new kernel.

Try the gps fix, worked well for me. Flash to a sense rom, dial ##gpsclrx# and then it will prompt you for your msl code. type that in, then it will reboot. You can now flash back to your destroyer rom and it should work.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] petermac88:

Hi,

I have a Dutch Touch Pro2 (unbranded) which I would like to return for warranty (some buttons on the keyboard aren't functioning properly) and I don't know much about SPL...

I've flashed the stock HTC Touch Pro2 ROM which I found at the HTC website. Now is my question:

Should I also flash back a stock SPL or is that included in the stock rom?

If not, where could I find it, and how should I flash it back?

Greetings,

Job
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] g0ldb3rg:
you have to flash "stock" hardspl back. I know as much as you about hardspl, sorry i couldn't be of more help :\
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Jackos:
Yes, it does contain the SPL.

HardSPL by OliNex does contain a black, so the SPL doesn't get changed.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] j0bb13:
Hi Jackos,

I've flashed back Stock SPL 0.87... So when I now update my ROM, should it change the SPL then to the SPL included in that rom?

Hi I'm currently running Froyo from this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/show...09493&page=603

it runs great until someone calls me. It freezes when I answer the call..is this a ram issue? I haven't tried texting or other messaging. I recently ran Gingerbread from the same thread and it froze after trying to run google maps, after which i couldn't get haret to run again.

I did a hard reset then installed froyo.

I have a HTC Warhawk (topaz) running WinMo 6.5

plz any suggestions?

Actually its not working anymore....It happens when I get a call from my brother, but whats weird is that his girlfriend (who also uses android?) can call me just fine. He has a regular cellphone with at&t (same company as me). He says that first it connected but then goes to my voicemail in google. (I have google voice installed). Is it a google voice support issue?

Is this a rooted issue

Please someone answer me.

Fixed sorta

Okay, got it all figured out, put my sleep mode = 2 or 4 and that fixed it, also underclocked it to save some battery life I put it on 450MHz instead of 528MHz

Unfortunately the GPS seems to be the new problem hopefully thejokah and gang will improve upon this soon.

Hello,

this might sound strange, but I need plain escape and alt keys on my hardware keyboard. The reason for that is the QEMU emulator. After testing it's android port with my DOS image (with a nice collection of games included inside) I found out that arrow keys work perfectly and games are stable, but I need to map hardware keys as alt and escape or create on-screen keyboard for QEMU (the way Windows Mobile port has). I would appreciate any help as I do not have any experience in this sphere. I couldn't donate much, but I could share my DOS image with any shareware games required other members

[Desire HD General] MarkieSA:
Hi all,

I've always felt that when playing music on my DHD that it's too quiet, when I've listened to music through my headphones I would say it's acceptable however when I've plugged my DHD into a HiFi or into my stereo in my car I could crank the volume to full control without it been deafening. I happen to find a fix yesterday by accident, I had my DHD plugged into my car stereo and the phone rang, I pulled the audio cable out and answered the phone, when I was done I put the cable back in and immediately I was like WTF just happened now, the music was much louder than what it was before I answered the phone, I would say it was about 30% louder.

I tested my theory by stopping the music and unplugging the cable, plugged the cable back in and started the music, while it was playing I opened the phone and simply dialled any random number and ended the call immediately, when it went back to the music it was most certainly much louder. I've tried it several times now and every time it makes it much louder than what it was before I make a call, I can now no longer turn the stereo full blast as it is simply too loud, just by turning it up to half way I would say it's the equivalent of what it was before when I had it turned up to the maximum.

I'm using Poweramp and I don't know if it's got anything to do with that, I will test it with the built in music player and see what it does. I originally downloaded Poweramp as I thought that the built in music player may be the problem.
[Desire HD General] thiagodark:
i'll repet what you do and post some results... really want a louder volumen in headphones. I plugged my headphone in a Wildfire and it's incredible louder, no talking about an ipod! last week in a party i was ashamed when my friend put off his $50 cell phone and i plugged mine on stereo, so low volume....
[Desire HD General] thiagodark:
wtf, that's true.. really don't understand what the phone turns on!! probably the same thing that volume boost turns on!!
[Desire HD General] snowwhite007:
Aha that actually works
[Desire HD General] MarkieSA:
Good news, it must be a software bug with the volume control.
[Desire HD General] oluu:
works here too.. atleast on poweramp and soundcloud, didnt hear any difference on spotify
[Desire HD General] thiagodark:
let's hope someone let this bug permanently turned on, with no call trick...
[Desire HD General] LordManhattan:
Haha! Tried it myself, and it works! Awesome!
[Desire HD General] Aenima462:
I found using shazzam or sound hound while music was playing caused it to go louder. Seems to be when the mic is initialised. Noticed this two days ago
[Desire HD General] Grant Barker:
Interesting find.

I've noticed a couple of ROMS which suggest better audio volume by 20%.

For example this one. (Speaker Boost +20%)

So somehow, somewhere the bug or issue has been fixed or improved.
[Desire HD General] thiagodark:
Not really, i'm using that rom right now, and what it makes is improve SPEAKER volume, not from headphone. I made my tests in Android Revolution rom and can confirm that headphone is as quiet as stock rom, and it is improved by the "call trick"!
[Desire HD General] dgco86:
Thanks for sharing! I was experimenting a bit, and it seems like the simplest way to boost the volume is to make a call while music is already playing. The call MUST connect though, or the volume will revert to normal levels. Tested with Winamp.
[Desire HD General] paulus_01:
Maybe have one of the dev's ask to look into this.

If this is different from the already increased speaker volume output, it probably is a bug that can be fixed / feature that can be 'un-featured' ;)
[Desire HD General] hoaza:
works fine ;)
[Desire HD General] frento:
I had similar experience with my laptop. When listening a mp3 file, the sound coming out from my laptop seems like no effects, standard sound without bass and treble effect. Have to play a movie file first together and stop the.movie make the song hear with the effect.

I believe this issue coming from my sound driver. Using another OS in same laptop. The sound play normally with no issue.

For our Android, it's about the sound driver too?
[Desire HD General] thiagodark:
well well, i just noticed that in the Android Revolution 4 (leaked gingerbread based), the sound is improved by default, no needing the call workaround, looks like HTC fixed the strange bug for the next version...

i just wanted to share!

sound problem

hey guys i'm new to this forum, i would appreciate if anyone could help me..

my DHD tones(just keyboard sound, lock sound, shutter sound) have came very low and i can burly hear it.. i turned all the volumes to the max but it's still very low, can anyone help me with that?
[Desire HD General] MarkieSA:
I had the same problem, go to the Market and download "Volume Ace".
[Desire HD General] gTomLittle:
MarkieSA, you're an accident hero.

I noticed sometimes my DHD volume suddenly were loud . If I restart the phone, it will go low . I couldn't find out how to make it loud again until reading your post. I'm using PowerAmp too . I think it plays a role in this case.

Thank you for this great finding.
[Desire HD General] rory1980:
Really useful little trick for 2.2 users, especially for peeps using stock ROM's without the 20% boost via custom kernels. I had tried some of the volume boost type apps before rooting but all they do is invert the phase of one of the stereo channels. All this does is give you a very tinny mono output which is no use to say the least.

Does the sound problem exist in all 2.2.1 based ROMs? I m using ARHD 3.0 but still have the problem. And it is a bit annoying to do the call workaround everytime you want louder sound. BTW awesome tip mate!
[Desire HD General] vxnice:

about volume

hi,to everyone,i had the same problem,but i fix it with " DSP Manager"

i found it after read many post in my own language (spanish) and is give you few opcion for manage volume in:

headset

phone speaker

phones speaker ring

bluetooth device

work well for me
[Desire HD General] thiagodark:
@kudoboi, i don't know about 2.2.1 from ota, but any rom based in 2.2.1 (1.7x or 1.8x) has the same problem. and what you got selecting dolby it's not near what you got by the phone workaround.

@vxnice, you souldn't unplug the cable, just play music, make a call, finish it and the sound would be louder.

@entierradenadie, again, what you get with DSP is not the same you get by this tip, also dsp cause drain battery in roms with sense.

I'm using cm7 now, nad this issue is fixed in android 2.3, and i can use dsp too, believe the sound can be REALLY louder.... try use the tip and DSP together, you will see...
[Desire HD General] Martinhdk:
Well. Volume Boost is awesome for earphones.
[Desire HD General] amj6442:
Tried volume boost. It def feels louder but not the same as the call workaround.

@thiagodark but for some reason I never noticed this problem with my stock Rom. Was it bcoz the build was 1.3x ? Ah well back to call workaround. Hopefully ARHD 4.X can get a stable build soon.
