I've tried various kernels on the stock ROM of my HTC Wildfire S and something i noticed was that the some kernels make it so the GPS has trouble locking. Is there any kernels that are around that are stable, fast and doesn't affect the GPS???
I've tried the stock kernel (which works, but the only way for this to work properly is to set the CPU at 480MHz-600MHz at ondemand governor and deadline I/O Scheduler, which eats the battery)
I've also tried
The Dust 9 kernel... which is good but the GPS didnt seem to lock... i'll retest this soon to make sure
The cake-gb-3.0-v1.4-htc-lycan kernel... which is pretty much the same as Dust
The DCPLX 1.2 kernel... which the GPS works fine, but the phone restarts itself sometimes, bricks it self voluntarily on the rare occasion, sometimes the screen doesnt turn on when the power button is pressed)
Never Mind
Actually never mind this post... Cake Kernel works fine... Now I'm trying to figure out how to delete this thread:laugh:

Hola,
I don't think you can delete the kernel. All you can do is update to a new kernel or a stock one. Hit thanks if Helped.:good:

Scoot CyanogenMod 7.1.0 RLS3
This is a build I have compiled from the official CyanogenMod source files and adapted for Kaiser/Vogue. Feel free to give it a go at your own risk!
Well, it still isn't quite as snappy as Froyo and the camera still doesn't work properly but it's probably about as fast as Gingerbread will get on our devices. I'm bound to have messed a few things up but i'll continue to work on it when I get time
All the usual things are working as far as i know, GPS works fine for me but the camera is as always not fully functional.
All of this is thanks to the guys working on the CyanogenMod roms and of course, none of this would work without all the hard work on the kernel so big thanks to dzo, vilord, l1q1d etc...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RLS 1:
Initial Release
Includes most of the Google Apps including Maps, Gmail etc..
Latest Market is included
RLS2:
Built from the latest 7.0.2 source
Optimised EGL for our devices
Updated Market
LDPI and PNG optimisations to save space & increase speed
ADW Launcher updated
Loads of tweaks and status bar changes
Updated RIL lib
Loads of fixes and optimisations
**I recommend leaving the phone for 5 minutes after installing to sort itself out and cache apps etc...**
RLS3:
I can't really be bothered to list all of the changes, there are quite a few but I just compile the thing, the changes are in the CyanogenMod repository. I have included the updated RIL and all of the Google Apps are up to date. The camera is still ****e but that's a driver issue. This release hasn't been heavily tested as I don't use my Kaiser as a main phone anymore So i'm sure you will find issues in which case we can sort them out as and when. Enjoy!

This is an alpha and still needs a fair bit of work to get it running to it's full potential but you can get an idea of what it will be like. Feel free to report any bugs that you find, by this i mean application crashes and things that don't work or look correct. I already know the system can hang and it isn't as fast a froyo
I have had to make a LOT of modifications for this to work, some of which may affect battery life but i haven't tested it for long enough to know so let me know how it goes. I'm bound to have messed a few things up but i'll continue to work on it when i get time

Excellent, thanks Scooter.

woot...gonna give it shot ... hoping for not getting same data/wifi reboots
woow, million thanks to you scooter
finally a gingerbread based build for our kaiser
btw, which kernel do you suggest for this build?
thanks in advance
Hmm for some reason I cannot boot to android the phone has been stuck in boot loop for the last 15 minutes. I have an app.img file with about 80 applications so this might be a problem I'll try to boot it without the app.img. Both data and system on sd card imgs + latest '25 kernel.
Edit.
Ok I have removed the apps.img and it still doesn't boot.
I have noticed that there have only been modules for '32 kernel included in the build. Should it work with '25 kernel with proper modules added?
I'll wait for All Languages version to test it with the new kernel.
1. this was my first attempt to instal android on nand.. noob here ;P
downloaded kernel VOGUIMG-320-FROYO-01-16-11.NBH, then changed with editor to kaiser and painel 2. Install occured ok.... but phone isn't working.. "no service".
2. I do i see my batery status? can only see that bar on the top but don't no accurate bat status in %.
3. after this install can i install another another version overwrithing this one? for example now the phone isn't working so i want to change to another version of android can i simply put another "androidinstal.tar" in andboot folder and install?
Thanks and sorry for this noob questions...

YES! you can
To view Battery percentage, you need to set that in Cyanogenmod Settings (correct me if I'm wrong here since its been ages when I used CM build)
Yes, you can do that it's actually very simple. Just remember to edit your .nbh before every install if you are changing versions (donut, froyo, eclair).
Cheers. Welcome to Android world

Try a .32 kernel, also i have only tested it on NAND so it may be an issue with Haret. To be honest we're lucky it works with the .32 kernel so i expect problems with the .25 kernel. Sorry

I recommend using the latest .32 kernel you can find, either one that L1q1d has compiled or one from Clemsyn's thread You can find the latest kernel here: http://androidhtc.git.sourceforge.n...7c0bf5edc4f5c6d64ce4df29254e8332ce26b;hb=HEAD
Well have installed 6.1 and phone now works... =)
Will wait until a new version of this one to come out and then try again...
- Already found how to show percentage in bar status thanks dark_prince.
- Thanks for advice slimas, to edit .nbh do i need to reinstall kernel? and can i reinstall without mess up with previous android install or do i need to install again android?
- Some bugs that occurred to me .. sometimes bar on the bottom disappear can't access apps... ; some freezing sometimes, do you guys recommend to overlock? if so how to do it? Weather widget can't find info too lol not a serious prob...
I'm reading forum and these are some questions i couldn't find answer, for now i think that's all.. i'm enjoying android on kaiser think this is the time i will change forever...
thanks for fast feedback any good tips are welcome ;P

The bar at the bottom of the scrren can disappear if you swipe down on the screen, it is a bit random but is a flaw in ADW launcher. To get it back you need to press the 'menu' button and go to 'settings' then go to 'ADW Settings, UI Settings and untick 'Dockbar'. Re-select 'Dockbar' and exit settings and it should be back I expect some freezing, it is still under heavy development and our devices are quite limited hardware wise so there won't be any miracles yet I overclock my Kaiser to 500Hz using ATools, a lot of people don't recommend it but it is what i have always done and i have never had any problems, it speeds the phone up a fair amount. Just tick the option when editing your NBH. The phone obviously needs to be connected to data or wifi for weather widget to get location information, i just tried it with wifi and it worked ok, there may be an issue with data though, i'll look into it Thanks for testing.

camera is not working properly but it looks awesome i will try to apply the update from previous cm to see if this will work

after applying the update android can`t start so i am going reinstall it
Ive done alot of searching but i cant seem to find a step by step on how to fix the keyboard missing keys thing if your on eb13 with syndicate 1.0.2 rom. Can someone help me out with what exactly i need to do without upgrading to ec05? thanks!

Check out this thread, as it has a link to a couple keyboard timer fixes. In your case I'd say you're better off updating your phone to EC05 and running SRF 1.2 (already has a keyboard patch built in)

that looks like its for ec05 only.... i have no interest in updating to ec05. why? because one of my epics is on boost and the other on sprint. i dont know if updating will screw up the boost one.

Modem has no effect on this, or much of anything in particular. The flash-ables created by TheImpaler based on mkasicks findings will simply create an init script. The value in question is a value from 1-9 in terms of speed. Generally set at 9, a speed of 5 or even 1 are preferred. The value, however, exists inside the kernel and must be reset upon each reboot by an init script such as those. Also, Genocide 1.1 has incorporated the patch into the kernel with directions on how to manually set it.

i still have no idea how to apply this for the rom and kernel i am currently using....
anyone else know what i can do?
This seems to be kernel specific not OS. So if the kernel supports the update it will work. See this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1025533. Easy test is running su echo 5 > /sys/devices/platform/s3c-keypad/timer_delay from terminal. If you get a directory not found the kernel does not support the patch.
yeah ive done this already. the kernal does not support it. But are there any kernals for eb13 that do?
i fixed it. thanks for the help.

What was the fix just in case there are others?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App
Just flashed the latest (as I understand) ROM. Samsung keypad is back (in version V4 it was removed) but I can't use it.
Added languages via Settings -> Languages and keyboard -> Samsung keypad -> Input languages. Checked English, Russian, Latvian. When writting sms, I can switch between input languages, but letters don't change. So no matter what input language you choose, you can write english.
Another sad thing is restart-loop. When phone stays idle for some time, its restarts by itself and goes into restart-loop. Only thing is to flash ROM again.
Any ideas of fixes?
KP has quit ROM cooking, i've used this rom till a month ago, this rare bug is unsolvable now, for example i hadn't this one.
Try some more up-to-date roms, for example Mutant ROM, i use it for several weeks and enjoy it!
Other hand why are you so stuck with samsung keypad? why aren't you using swype for example? Mutant ROM + Swype serve me well for russian\english combo.
Everyone of us can thank KP for his work for SGW community, but his own roms are no more actual today, they've brought much power to modern SGW works.
you could use swiftkey 3.........its a really good keyboard
I've been using K. Rom VPack V1.1 (the one with O.C. kernel capabilities) for quite long (i'm still using it), it's a very very fast/smooth and battery efficient ROM. I underclock Cpu to 1.2 MHz and could use phone for 3-4 (or 5!) days without charging.
I had also same issues with keyboard and restart thing.
So,
1)The samsung keyboard issue has already been solved (check thread for Kezra VPack V1.1)
The problem was that T9DB folder was missing from Rom, so copy from stock ROM T9DB folder and put it in /system Kezra's Rom.
Dont forget to check permissions and restart phone.
2) Restart problem.. i suffer same thing (not any more). For possible solution see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1773098
Also (if not already) UPDATE your Baseband/Modem Version to XXLM6 at least! Just flashing Kezra's Rom won't update Baseband/Modem!
Good luck!
..
Looks like I've missed something... never updated Baseband/Modem, mine says XXKL3. Haven't noticed that baseband update is required.
Currently I followed dimaka's advice and moved to newer rom... Bagux Project ROM. It runs almost excellent. There are some glitches like Flashlight turns out after 5 seconds, etc, and I was about to start new topic on that, but now... maybe this all is about Baseband update.
Can someone point me to the right direction? I currently have XXKL3 region Europe/Latvia.

You can use Antutu CPU Master along with Antutu Benchmark to rate your phone. They're both free on market.
Set it on 1.2 GHz and post results!
Ok, Antutu results with and without underclock. How are they?

I think most important is Ram and CPU where Kezra's Rom is a winner!!:victory: (you dont have ext.sdcard that's why sdcard results are zero).
Check out and long last battery screenshot (with very light usage though).
Im sorry to bother with this, its probably been asked many times, but after navigating through hundreds of pages I find myself even more lost than when I started. I installed Mimicry 1.5.0 rom a while ago after reading that it overclocks to 1.2ghz on boot thinking I wouldnt need any other tweaking for playing games but recently I've installed a few that dont work any well, like Frozen Synapse, Real Racing 2 and emulator Mupen64.
Could anybody tell me if there is any way I can increase gaming experience with this rom and how? For now the only thing I've done is install SDBooster which Im not even sure its helping. Thanks in advance.

I can play minion rush almost flawless.
Thanks! I've tried changing th clock to 1.5 in the performance settings of Mimicry's rom but when I try to play a game it freezes completely and I have to remove the battery to restart the phone. I'll try that app to see is it runs more stable and I'll post the result later.

Did you enable v6 supercharger? I found that to lagg the vision
I dont know how you enable or disable V6 supercharger, where is the option?
I've been testing tha No-Frills CPU Control and works a little better at 1.5 but still not good enough.
I also wanted to ask about the Memory management options, should I use zRam and enable "Allow purging of aasets" and "Kernel samepage merging"?
With mimicry its an option in the aroma install
Then Im pretty sure I chose it, probably because I read it worked great. Is there anyway to change it without having to reinstall the rom?
To disable androcharger (blk_jacks modded supercharger) just flash the aroma installer and choose to disable androcharger, this won't reflash the ROM unless you tell it to do so, just replaces the patched services.jar.
Or if you prefer you can manually replace it as well, just unzip the ROM and find the stock services.jar, boot to recovery and use adb to push it, then fix permissions and your good

Hi Guys, I thought I would make a thread here as i can not seem to be able to find a solution. Rooted my device obviously, everything is fine until I installed a "Kernel" (cant remember author) to overclock mainly then encountered several problems. 1: Wi-Fi has become unstable. It seems to either crash my phone or signal disappears after my phone is on standby for a period of time (variable). 2: My Bluetooth just does not work. At all!! I have not done anything more to my device so the solution (hopefully). I forgot to mention that it is STOCK ROM. I do not wish to wipe my phone clean, i want to find a fix. Possibly a more stable kernel. Overclocking does not want to happen either but the "Governor's, I/O Scheduler's and Underclocking" do work. If there is anything more you guys need to know please ask!!
Looking forward to ideas

It not the root that causing the issue, it the kernel that tried. If I remember correctly there's only two kernel for the S4 mini that allows overclcoking, and one of them has stopped developerment since last year. That leaves the F4k kernel.
He has two different kernels: one for the AOSP/CM (custom) ROM another is also a bit outdated for the default Samsung TouchWiz ROM. Are you sure you've download the correct kernel?

Well to my knowledge I had used the correct kernel....... I never used one from here but I did find a website claiming that F4k has a stock over clocking kernel...... Unfortunately for the life of me I can not find this website. I've managed to overclock with success using a apk. I found on here (performance control) brilliant tool!! Is there any chance you able to post a link to this stock kernel you talk about so I can test myself and report back? Everything else is working without a problem apart from Wi-Fi and bluetooth.

So I've come to a conclusion after many weeks of testing and searching........ Unfortunately the overclock kernel for "TouchWiz" roms is unstable........ looking through forums I can see that F4k has only realised a "test" version....... on the other hand I have found a kernel from Vikinger (if spelt correctly) that's has fixed my issue and is working great... shame it isn't overclocked nor under and has no additional governors..... any one with ideas please feel free to share..... many thanks.
