Team-Villain ROM Kernel Updates (optional)

For anyone who doesn't look at the VillainROM forums often, I thought I'd post the updated kernels I have made for some of the ROMs.
More to follow, and this is OPTIONAL, and at your own risk. It should fix green camera issue.

This is behnaam's Ben#8 kernel (sorry, I forgot, as I typed this up as i was leaving the house)

Can I use this kernel with VanillaEclair? Or only for Villain stuff only?

villainrom 5.5.0 - no green on camera CONFIRMED - working for me.
thanks

Dude, you made my day. A camera fix exactly on the day of my first outdoor dance festival.
I was on Chronos but moving back to villain as we speak.
Thanks a lot m8

[Q] Couple of newbie questions :)

Phk said:
Greetings fellow Friends from Galaxy
I just moved myself from the HTC Magic section to this one.. It was quite a jump, the Galaxy S Camera and 4inch screen are AWESOME =)
I have a few noob questions that I don't want to spread through many posts, so i've chosen to get them all here, without polution this forum section. Also they might come in handy for future Galaxy S buyers!
My phone is: 2.1-update1 @ I9000XXJF5
Question #1
Well at first glance everyone's trying to fix the "LAG PROBLEM"... I haven't noticed any lag!! What are we talking about? If its a fix.. i want it too
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
the lag problem does not accure instantly after startup, it takes a while to do so.
Question #2
The phone came with Android 2.1, but at samsung-firmwares.com and at this dev section of the forum, i saw the JP3 Froyo release. How stable is this? Is it already a daily driver or a total beta? As an Android lover, i'd love to have the latest
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
this release is, lets say, alpha quality, however some do use it daily and seems to be stable so far, but the jit is broken, so dont expect it to be faster than eclair
Question #3
I've used the One Click rooting solution and then the ROM Manager Clockwork to boot into clockwork rom and make a full-system backup. In my HTC Magic i had the recovery ROM (Amon_RA) flashed into the internal phone memory, so even if i didn't have a ROM installed, i was ALWAYS able to boot into recovery. That was a safety plus. How can i flash the Clockwork Recovery directly to my phone, without the ROM Manager? I'd feel more secure if i could count on recovery even if, for example, i flashed a non-working system ROM.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
you can run the clockwork recovery from original recovery by simply running it´s update.zip, this does in fact load the clockwork recovery into memory
Question #4
So what is YOUR favourite ROM? My stock has some unwanted apps, and even worse, it's Eclair. I'd like to switch soon, but i don't know these Galaxy S ROMs Tell me what's the best ROM for you!
Thanks guys, XDA is indeed the #1 place for mobile stuff

If JIT is broken, the rest of new 2.2 features can be achieved through Market tools... I'll stick to 2.1 then. By the way, where's a CLEAN 2.1 Rom? this one has lots of service-provider tools... They suck.
FadeFx said:

Now That's a fix! So i just have to keep my update.zip of Clockwork Rom in INTERNAL SD CARD so that anytime, anywhere, i just have to perform update.zip and the Clockwork will boot ONCE from RAM and them be cleared at next boot, right?

Give it a try, it clears out the stock rubbish and leaves it in a folder on ur sd card to install later if you need it.

[Q] No reject button on lockscreen using RSK team 5.0 rom with amaze cam

Hi,
I installed RSK team 5.0 rom on the Desire. Everything works fine and I'm very impressed by the rom ('cause I tried some others but this one works fastest, no lags and just a few FC but nothing unsolved).
However I experienced a problem that is not that big, but annoying. When I have a call and the phone is locked I don't have reject button (see attached pic). I tried reflashing the rom, tried changing skins, lockscreens etc, but always the same. Function works fine and I can reject a call.
Any ideas how to fix this issue?
Thanks in advance!!!

Link to the ROM?

I think this is one of the MOST useful options, but unfortunately there are not many (only 1) Sense based roms offering this feature...

By the way, I just found out yesterday that the new Viper ROM actually has it in its Tweaks. I don't know if there's a flashable zip file around, but I'd ask the developer if he would have time to make one if that's okay with him.

i dont understand you guys...
i have a new htc one from t-mobile germany, but without branding or simlock, only a few t-mob ringtones are installed...
my one is not rooted, unlocked or something similar... everything is stock.
in my device the LONG PRESS BACK TO KILL APP is working normaly!
try to push and hold the back button with the hole thumb...

Are you sure ?
This feature is definitely not available on stock rom, and only 1 stock based custom rom has it (Renovate rom, which i tried downloading but servers were down, so i flashed Trickdroid with 4.2.2 instead). But it's available on almost all aosp based roms. Once AOSP roms for the One start being really stable for daily use, i won't even think of having a sense based rom again.

yes of course iam sure.
in my note2 this was an flashable zip mod,
but in my htc one this is stock possible! thats because iam so wondered after i read that for this is a mod...

I've tried for over 1 week to do this (when making DarkSense One ROM) and I couldn't do it, E.Cadro also tried and can't either - we are both experienced with smali.
If you want this so bad then flash Viper. They are only able to do it because m0narx intercepts all button calls then sorts them out in his own files (VenomButtonsManager), bypassing the calls already in the existing android.policy.jar files.

Ok, i was just talking to someone that was having the exact same problem as you and it turned out that he wasnt properly doing a full wipe.
You need to format everything other than the sd. In 4ext the option for this is in wipe > format all partitions (except sdcard)
Make sure you do this.

1. Users arent really having to go through much trouble. The only difference now is that you need to reboot in between flashing the rom and gapps.
2. By slightly breaking the setup wizard, I seem to have been able to fix the WiFi bug where it would get stuck turning on. I would rather have better working WiFi that I constantly use, than a perfectly working setup wizard which I only use once. Im sure the majority of other users feel the same.

VPN Issues
Greetings, I have installed Beanstalk 4.4.2 on my 4 years old Desire just few days ago. So far so good, it is great, fast, it really revived my smartphone. But ...
What is the reason no form of VPN works on it? I have some prepaid solution and its app doesn't work. OpenVPN doesn't. PP2P/L2TP solutions don't work. Is it system bug which needs fix or am I doing anything wrong?
Thanks for answer.

Sorry to ruin it for you but camera will not be fixed with K3 release, if it will be released anytime which I highly doubt anymore. It is a matter of unreleased sources and libs by HTC, so the best we will get is what we already have, camera-wise. So long story short, if you want fully functional camera and video recording, GB is the only way or that chinese ICS released sometime ago.

So if I want fully functional and fast HTC Desire I should go for Mild Wild or pure CM? What is the difference between cm based and redux based MW? Thanks.

I would recommend Mildwild MW rom based on redux2.

They're just slightly different ROM bases. Install both, see which one you prefer
It's the best way to find out, unlike recommendations without justifications as above..
Remember you can maximise space much better with either of those ROMs as they into smaller hboots
CM version will fit into cm7r2, redux should fit into oxygenR2, check the threads.
