I have tried to install every kernel and cannot install any of them. I'm on wicked Rom, using twrp rc2 version to flash and every time it just won't boot. I get past everything and it will hang on the last screen right before Android boots up and then boot loops. The phone vibrates. And that's it. I check my md5 sums. Wipe dalvik and cache. Then sometimes I don't wipe anything and just install the kernel. Same results. What in the world's could be going on? Every single kernel will not boot.
I am so stumped. Please give me some ideas. PLEASE. BECAUSE I AM OUT OF IDEAS. I just downloaded the new twrp and in going to try that. I will report back.

So I tried it with the latest recovery twrp 2.x.3.6 or whatever it is and still not a single kernel will boot. I had one kernel actually boot. But within maybe 10 seconds of doing so. Bam bootloop

We have been testing this. Seems some phones (mine included) hate OC.
As a few of you know i've been testing every rom known to man on various phones for years, and this is the first time we have had a phone that hates OC. There are a select few that have phones that pull it off. I went thru all 5 Kernels that are available (plus 2 that i'm working on) and i get the bootloops. All i can say is, work in progress and hopefully we can figure out why the phones are doing this.
Even stock frequency kernels are boot looping though....Some of the kernels I tried don't even have oc support.?

Well I was able to get saber kernel green to fully load this morning. So I wonder why the other kernels will not. There had to be a reason.

That's weird, do you clean wipe every you install a rom. I've been flashing through twrp 2.6.3.4-.6 every time had worked and I don't see why it shouldn't. Which way did you root?
I must have gotten a good phone then because I have not had any problem flashing anything. I'm using TWRP 2.3.6.0 (the one that Goomanager downloaded) and I've even been able to OC to 2.7Ghz. I am counting myself lucky then.
I had the same problem. Imoyesen the dev for LeanK gave me the explanation and it has something to do with what dragon said. I flashed 6 in a row including all of his builds and same as you. Then he pmed me a version and boom running lime a dream. Since then his past 2 updates have been perfect for me. It had something to do with PVS0. My phone and yours is probably pvs0 wcich needs a bit more voltage than a pvs1. You can get a phone with anything from 0 to 6 and you dont know which one you got until you flash a kernel. Lol insane. Any way I was gonna return my phone and try another but I decided to deal with it. Im not a linux engineer so please if you want to know tthe details ask someone knowlrdgable in this field dont take my word for anything as I am only relaying a message and orobably half assed at that.
So it looks like kernel devs will have to make a kernel just for us loosers with pvs0 phones and a seperate version for the guys that can handle heavy tweaks.

My understanding is that its moreso the voltage than clockspeed that is the culprit. I just tryed oc to 27 and no issue yet. I dont oc because this phone is plenty fast for me and I just want battery life. I guess maybe the kernel devs are lowering the v on their kernels out of the box to aid in battery savings but its too much for our phones to boot with. We need a higher v maybe as high as stock to boot with then adjust from there with your favorite control app and find your sweet spot. Just guessing here hopefuly someone can give a real explenation.

I don't think the recovery version is causing your problems as I've been able to boot any kernel I choose, or all the way up to 2.65, and flash whatever ROM I've tried. Now I do have the n900w8 but still, same hardware underneath.
To me it sounds like Samsung went with a few different binnings for their chips and some people just got the ****ty ones that, in all realitt, a holder have even been used but they wanted to pump out as many phones as they could? May be one answer at least, though it doesn't help come up with a solution
have you guys tried different roms at least? Same problem Or no?

No I havent tryed any honestly im waiting for my favorite rom to come out in a couple weeks then I will. But I dont think its going to make any difference. Its just a chit chip I guess and the kernel devs will hopefuly not forget us misfortunate ones. It is what it is I guess im not gonna beat it over the head anymore I decided to just deal with it.
Honestly im happy with LK right now at 6 hrs screen and 30hrs total. Indont I don't care about over clocking as this phone is plenty fast for me anyway. I only care about smoothness and battery lige with this phone and im happy with both right now. My note 2 I opted for the zero lemon and lasted me 4 days with 15 hrs screen. This phone I want to leave it stock and thin as it is a geourges phone imo. It bothers me when every evening I have to search for a charger and I havent had to do that yet so im good. Thanks

Yea I had that battery too act u ally 2 of them. We need to let the kernel devs know about us and maybe they can make kernels that use stock or even voltage increases at boot so we can at least get into android and make the necessary voltage increases before bootloops.
This worked for me the other night. I got red to boot and quickly rushed to the app I use to change voltage, hoping to increase 100mv across the board but I couldn't do it fast enough and bam bootloops, and no more booting into android any more
. So I had to restore my backup.
Maybe these are just kinks that have to be worked out. I mean the phone is barely a few weeks old and the devs are still learning. So we have another 3 months before I expect them to get the hang of things. So to speak. This phone has been by far the most temperamental device I have ever purchased from samsung.
If we don't have a working kernel in a few months I'll definitely be buying a refurbished device from somewhere for cheap.

Everything has been perfect with this phone except now I've had two reboots in the past two days and I'm considering swapping it for a new handset (could be indicative of a larger problem). Yesterday it rebooted when I was browsing the internet, it had 70% battery before the reboot and then the phone was reporting 15% right after. I did a battery pull and it came up to 40% after. Weird. Anyone else have any issues like this?

At the time I posted this thread I was still waiting for a way to root my current ROM, with no flashing involved. With all the problems that people were having with LOS I didn't want to risk flashing a new kernel and potentially starting to get LOS when I never had it before. I still haven't had a single one and I got this phone on release day
Well, thanks to a FUBAR with the CIQ removal script and no backup, I moved away from stock. I'm now running Calkulin's and haven't had any LOS or random reboots. At least, that's what I'm running while I patiently wait for CM9. That being said, I recommend it.

Yeah I had the same FUBAR lol. I ended up using odin to go the EG31 route. I really feel no desire to go with a custom ROM. Back in the EVO days the stock ROM was always so bloated even with just Sense that you HAD to go custom to get any performance or decent battery life out of it. The stock ROM on our E4GTs just blazes and is damn near perfect already. The only thing left for me to do is get rid of CiQ and then it will be absolutely perfect. I have the odexed version of the noCiQ mod waiting to be flashed but I'm 1000 miles from home for the next few weeks and can't risk screwing up my phone. I only brought my macbook with me so using odin in case of a fowl up is not an option right now.

Oh I'm aware. I still do nandroids just in case now but honestly, stock ROM+removed bloat + autostarts is awesome.
I used to be flash happy when I had my EVO, I flashed new ROMs all the time (and always ended up back at MIUI). With my E4GT I just want it to work with no problems and I'm happy.
I'm stock too. I did the whole flash everything under the sun with my evolution and evo 3d and other phones. Ill root and flash when cm9 is stable. I had one radom reboot once but I think it was an app issue.

Well, I stopped on the way home from work today to see what was new at Sprint. I've been thinking about getting the EVO 3D... I came home with a Touch.
So. I want to root, so I can run root apps like um, Ad Free etc. What do I need to know about rooting this before I jump in head first? Do these phones have any stupid security etc or anything I need to know about?
I just wanna make sure I don't mess anything up.
What do we have for a recovery etc?
Any tips would be GREAT!
E4GT doesn't have all the locked bootloader stuff to worry about like EVO 3D.
You can start off here:
[ROOT][EG30] Automated root of your existing stock ROM (w/o ODIN or ROM Flash)
That will get you rooted on stock and won't involve flashing anything. It doesn't use ODIN.
There is also a tool called ODIN which lets you flash stuff to the phone outside of Android. It provides fastboot-like functionality. Using ODIN, if you flash unsigned kernels, your boot screen will get a yellow triangle and there is a flash count that gets incremented. Also it'll identify the phone in the boot screen by the real model name (I9100...) rather Galaxy S2. Other than that it'll still boot and work.
Question about this ODIN flasher thingy and the unsigned kernels. Why the increment count etc? What is the point to that?
Thanks for the info btw. I think the link you sent will be a good start. Don't need to flash any custom roms yet. I wanna get the hang of the stock one first. This Samsung has a very different feel then the HTC EVO/Sense stuff.
Need to ask Samsung.
Probably they want to keep track of whether you installed non-standard software, possibly for service reasons.
---------- Post added at 01:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:35 AM ----------
BTW you can use a USB jig to get rid of the Yellow Triangle and reset the flash counter.
If you just want to get rid of the Yellow Triangle, you can flash back the stock kernel, then use other methods like the Root Installation Kit I pointed to earlier.
Once you get CWM, flashes through that won't affect the Yellow Triangle and flash count.
Just watch the roots right now the odin has an issue with LOS from what I have seen. I am currently using a direct root which roots the rom.
I assume LOS means loss of service?
OK! Noted.

Stock phones suffer from LOS too. Rooting and some kernels MAY make it worse. I've flashed nearly everything available for this device in the last month and have not had 1 serious unexplainable LOS.

If it were me, I would use the phone as is for a few days to get some feel for whether your situation will get LoS and what the battery life is. Then you have a baseline to compare to after you start making changes.
It is easy to get really excited and install a whole bunch of stuff and all of a sudden you get LoS or really bad battery life, and then you can't figure out what caused it or even what to expect with the stock phone.
This could lead you to think the phone is at fault when it is actually something that was installed later.
Also with the official Samsung rom out now most of the roms in development will be getting reworked shortly.

I'll have to give that a try. I've never been into overclocking these phones. I don't game, I don't use them for video either. I just use them for work to look up help desk tickets while I'm going building to building.
Beats the hell out of lugging my MacBook around just to read some notes on the go.
So I've had about 7 different android phones, flashed tons of roms on em', but there has never been a consensus on the 10 minute rule.
Some rom makers recommend you wait 10 minutes to let the phone "set" before you do anything to set it up. But others don't mention it at all.
Is this 10 minutes absolutely necessary, and whats the point?
Do you do it?
Thx
That was more for older phones. Doesn't really apply to newer phones since they are so much faster and have a ton of memory
Sent Telepathically
There's not necessarily anything that will go wrong if you boot up for the first time after a flash and just start doing things...
But it can't hurt to boot up and let it "settle" for a minute, do a fix permissions (I like to do a nandroid backup of the clean ROM too) and a reboot, and then customize things. Just good process to follow.
It was to allow stuff to cache so it doesn't lag like **** and make the rom seems ****. Rebooting after 1st boot solves this also.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk
I don't follow this anymore but I also don't immediately tinker with the phone after flashing. It would not hurt at all to do some waiting though. It pays to be patient once in awhile.
Wasnt it just because the dalvik cache has to buold upon first boot?
I'm really new to this but I figured out to be patient and let things settle.. :screwy:

Everyone is going to have different preferences and different results (even on the same model phone), but I have ran most of the ROMs currently out there for our phone and right now I am in love with AOKP with Faux kernel. This is the best my Nexus has ran since I have purchased it.
I just recently started using AOKP and I am not turning back.

Isn't it funny how things have changed over time.
Let the ROM settle. (no longer matters)
Use Task Killer to manage multi tasking (now bad for the OS)
Use battery calibration software on a new ROM (google says it does nothing)
This is the evolution of things and I assume it will continue to change.
Sometimes change is good.. Hopefully Google can make ics even better. But the devs are way ahead! Lol

Mind you this issue isn't consistent, and sometimes it seems to just take too long, like this case after the person picked up the phone, before bring the screen back, and that the system is lagging maybe(?). I don't know but it happens enough.

That rom isn't being developed anymore, it's been long forgotten and the dev got a new device. Have you ever wiped cache/dalvik cache? fix permissions?
Not regularly. Perhaps I'll give that a shot and if no luck maybe it's time to find a new ROM. Thanks

Try megamix?
If you are looking for a new rom, I would recommend you looking a megamix, it's has the ICS port too.
Oh cool, thanks. Didn't know ICS was ported already
. Awesone

Hello all, I am looking for a touchwiz rom that has full capability and has great battery life. I have tried synergy, but it doesn't play nice with the AT&T S3 for me. What are some other ones that you guys recommend? Thanks.
No one can determine the best ROM for you as we all have different needs for our phones. Additionally, each phone may react to every ROM differently. My advice would be to try out as many as you can.
This link can be a good place to start researching.

Ya you're right. But I'm just asking what people prefer. I'm looking for one that runs like stock, maybe some mods here and there, with performance increases/better battery life.

The link I provided should be a good point of reference for gauging people's thoughts on ROMs. Reading and trying them yourself is honestly the only way to know.
try roms is all you can do. personally I like wicked v8. I give roms a one strike and youre out rule. if one thing doesnt work good enough for my needs its gone. I wanted to like synergy but it gave me a few issues. maybe I will wait a month or two and see what else comes. ive had great success with wicked and devils reject roms. I have friends using intergalactic and it also seems good for them. my battery life is better than ever on wicked but of course it all comes down to usage and tuning. most important to choose a rom that works.
I like CSROM. The battery life is great and you have good aroma install options for things like aosp messaging and email. It has good mods like tethering, toggles, etc. Also very good support from the Dev and others in the development thread.
I was looking for same thing dude actually I'm still looking.I have been try Synergy and CSROM but they are not what exactly I want . Synergy has really cool staff but they got a lot of issues with SGH-i747 simultaneously. I was trying to install Synergy rom it took my 3-4 hours beacuse I couldn't fix every problem with Snynergy after than I found a fixing uptade file and a kernel it started work okey but it still had bugs. I just decided to try another.
Now I'm using CSROM they don't have a lot of cool thing like synergy . They have some diffrent touchwizz from Sony and Motorola.They have multiwinow but my battery is working sucks . I have 2 battary but I have to get charge 2 times in a day it's mean 4 charge for a single battery.I'm not sure about all this things I'm just saying my experiance. Maybe I could do something wrong but they are my opinion try anotherone except those ::highfive:
Make a nandroid of stock and your IMEI, then flash and try them all !
Devils reject and csrom are my favorites as far as twiz roms

Dude I'm using CDROM to but I'm not happy with my battery life stock was better than it. What settings can you prefer? I thing I'm doing something wrong because people says battery life is fine with CSROM.
Let me know about what should set up. Thanks

Every phone is different. Every user is different. While a rom may work great on one person's phone it may be the opposite for yours...even with the exact same specs and hardware. The opposite can be true for other roms. And the way you use the phone differs as well. There is no "....is the best rom.". If you are not happy with the current ROM, then try another.
I'll give you three of the best IMHO that I've used extensively.
#1 Xtremperia by Jovy23
#2 Darthstalker X1 by Jovy23
#3 Deadly Venom 3.0 by Venom
All three are bug free and extremely stable with excellent battery life. I use the Ziggy kernel with all three.
At this point I'm running Hyperdrive multiview w/ Ziggy and I have Synergy w/Ziggy as my back up.
Yes they both have minor bugs but are easily fixable.
That being said the VERY first thing I would and this comes from an expensive lesson I learned BACK UP YOUR IMEI FIRST!!!! If I've helped please hit the thanks button and happy flashing.

The other reply covered it pretty good as it's different for everyone. I see a lot of people posting about battery life and I would suggest the following. Charge your battery to 100% before you go to bed. Take it off the charger and then just let it sit overnight. When you get up, check the battery stats and see if it goes into deep sleep, meaning it wasn't awake when the screen was off during the night. If you see more than a few times where it was awake, you probably have wakelock issues. If so, use Better Battery Stats to find out what's going on. Sometimes its the media scanner hanging up on a pic or vid that isn't playing nice, sometimes it's something else.
I have my mail synced 24/7 as well as contacts and calendar. I play games for about 10 minutes a clip throughout the day and browse xda and google news and I get about 20 hours with 2-3 hours screen on time.

I am new to Rom flashing. Been experimenting with the AOSP and AOKP Roms but keep coming back to TouchWiz based Roms...Currently I am running Stockorama V2...Has a Aroma installer and tons of options...Still minimalistic in size...I completely wiped the stock Rom off my phone and now running Stockorama I have 10GB free space in my internal memory VS the 5GB I had with the factory Rom...Best part is you get to pick and choose the features you want as you install...One important feature to me is SmartStay and happy to say it's installed in this Rom...Here is the link give it a whirl and let them know what you think...

Just report the thread and a mod will close it. Plus this thread was over a month old. Who ever decided to have their input just bumped it to the top of Q&A and the whole progress starts again.
Next time a thread like this pops up just report it.
