I seem to be having problems with 4.3.1 roms.... i've been using slimbean 4.3.1 build 2 and slim halo based off the same build, i like using the uber kernel so i can oc and get better performance out of some games i play. i use my phone for general stuff, but i also play alot of games on it. i cant post in either one of those threads, because i tend not to post because im pretty good about reading and searching. usually find stuff that way. but any time i flash one of those roms with uber using either clockwork mod 6.0.4.4 or twrp 2.6.3.0 i get random reboots when the phone is put under load, or just sitting idle even with the screen up. not usually during regular use, and i cant get antutu to work(fcs). ive read about problems with 2.6.3.0, and i cant find out if this is the issue or what. id love to make my phone more stable, i had a backup of build 1 of slimbean but now it wont let me update apps so i just deleted it. i tend to use 1836 oc, ondemand gov. with row i/o, but have changed these around a bit. am i doing something wrong? can anyone suggest anything please? any roms/kernels
combos reccommended for good gaming, i use psp emulator alot. please any suggestions or even noob bashing is welcomed. just cant figure this out and would love to be able to use my phone without these goofy random reboots... sorry for the long post, and thanks to all the developers and other members of xda.

Ur over clocking ur her too much that's pretty much what happens when u oc and use a CPU intensive app or game.. Try knocking it down to the 1700 mark or even 1600.. Reinstall antutu and it'll be fine it probably shut down on u while u were testing.. Its happened to me.. I was having some troubles with 2.6.3 and switched to 2.6.1 and everything's been great on 4.4.. I think the main issue is that ur just pushing the CPU too far
i thought that too, but i forgot to mention that even if i dont oc it still does it. i think uber combined with those two roms doesnt work well on my phone or something, but slim halo with uber even at no oc runs stuff faster than anything ive tried... maybe i need to try to get used to other roms, i love slim, its always been great for me. thanks for the input, ill mess around a little more.
also, i run full oc on uber with other versions of slim, just trying to keep up with the latest stable releases.

I am farely new to all of this stuff. I recently installed MIUI 1.3.25. Now after the HTC EVO 4 white screen, it loads the unlock screen, and prepares the SD card, and then freezes. So I pulled the battery out and tried several more times with the same results. WHAT DO I DO????
First of all welcome!!!!
Hmm... try wiping EVERYTHING twice and reflashing.
Thanks. That did work. Until I went into my SET CPU APP to overclock and then it froze again. Is there something that this ROM has against the APP? I am just trying to overclock it. Any recomendations?
yes im guessing you overclocked it too far dont hit or go past 122. plus why even have it that high? so to sum it up, tune it down a bit.
I can't figure out why I'm getting such low Linpak scores on this ROM. I was getting better scores with Sense and this ones supposed to be FAST!
You don't need to worry about quadrant/linpack scores...if it react and perfoms fast be happy.
I guess my expectations were to high. I have read a ton of threads and they all say how fast these Gingerbread ROMs are. It lags just when I scroll through the APPs and hit the HOME button or type a text message.
Lol, let it set in. Also check your minimum cpu usage.
*Deep-breaths* We'll just take baby steps. Learn a little more everyday. Thanks a ton. Any ideas off the top that would help send me to bliss would be appreciated otherwise I will continue reading.....
If you read throughout all of the MIUI threads, the Gingerbread versions are buggy right now. I'm not moving back to MIUI until they get the bugs gone.

If you download VM Heap Tool from the Market and set the heap size to 40 or more, it should get rid of your lag. It will also prevent a lot of launcher force closes.
As has been stated, MIUI has only had two three Gingerbread releases so far, one of which was only on the Nexus S, and there is still a lot of work to do. If you check it out in a couple weeks, most problems should be ironed out, and MIUI will once again be as fast as you've heard. In the meantime, the 1.3.18 Froyo release, which you can find HERE, has been well-recieved.
Hy everyone i want to ask everyone if i can have a faster android than this ?
My video
The video says it all its an old cyanongen mod from here

Looked pretty average speed to me, certainly not slow for the Kaiser. Mine is running more smoothly then that using my latest CM6 build but it's running from NAND which will be faster. Getting rid of the fancy widgets on your home screen will speed up ADW Launcher as well, they're a waste of RAM. Other ways you will get it faster are overclocking using ATools or Rogue Tools, or getting a new phone.
to be honest im trying to flash one but i cant find a simple
i want something just to flash like i used to flash wm
I really dont care about customization
Check the forums here, there are many posts regarding installing to NAND. If I had to do it again, I would go with a Froyo build with not too much bloat and a .25 kernel, which for me right now seems quite stable.
I'm running 2.2.1 Froyo with a .25 kernel. I back up /data almost on a daily basis since I have had trouble with the phone locking up with some apps from the market. Otherwise a stable build is out there, just have to look for what you need and don't need.
There is a sticky topic related to "How to Replace"
I've overclocked mine to 520 MHz. It's pretty stable here, no problems thus far.
So far, the fastest build I've found is here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/androidhtc/files/2011-04-07-froyo/system-froyo-all-unodex-07-04-11_06.tgz/download
It's directly from the AndroidonHTC projects page and so far has been the fastest I've used to date.
Of course, I bogged it down with Facebook, Pandora and other useless garbage and made a backup of /data when done. Best thing is, no need for overclock.
Hi all,
I'm a new Nexus user and I was just wondering what is currently the best ROM and Kernal people are using. I put Android Revolution HD on my Nexus a few days ago and it's running great. I keep hearing people talk about Cyanogen or the Franco kernal though.
Are the performance improvements that much better, or should I stick to Revolution? I don't require a lot of personalization in terms of how things look. I'm quite happy with the stock look of the phone. I just want all the "behind the scenes" improvements like better battery life and loading times. What's the best setup in your experiences?
Thanks!
I've played around with several of the roms and kernels, with mixed results. It seemed like some roms and kernels would get me crazy performance, but really crappy stability.
The setup I'm running now is a cleanly wiped install of GummyNex 0.8.1 found here, or more directly here OnDemand governor is giving me respectable battery life. When I'm running short, I'll switch to Conservative. I've been meaning to set something up in Tasker or Setting Profiles to do it for me.
And Google apps found here, also more directly here
The kernel I run is Trinity, found here
If you haven't done so already, I found awesome performance improvements by opening the egl,cfg file in /system/lib/egl/, and deleting the first line- usually "0 0 android". Then going back into the egl folder and deleting both the .bak file some editors create, and the "libGLES_android.so" file. This is an ICS tweak that alleges to eliminate CPU rendering. I know there's an option in developer tools to "force GPU rendering", but apparently that doesn't quite cut it.
Anyway, that's my 2 cents, and it's blazing fast and stable. Averaging around 3800 in Quadrant.
Thanks! Revolution HD already does GPU rendering so I'm not to worried about that. I guess I'll just stick with that since it's basically stock with a few performance tweaks. I'm not big on instability :/.
The Trinity kernel looks interesting though... Is the overclock safe though? And does it drain a lot of extra battery?

Revolution HD is based on 4.0.2 so many kernels will not work because they are based on 4.0.3 and 4.0.4. I highly recommend you use a rom that is based on 4.0.3 AOSP (Such as GummyNex or AOKP). 4.0.3 has better stability/battery/performance tweaks anyway. If you want a better selection of Trinity's kernels go here. TNP1344-ANY-384-aelp (dated Feb 27th) is really nice. If it gives you bootloops up the voltages by 50 or 100.
aokp.27 + glados.v.1.18 OR leankernel.v.2.4.0 (both are stable as a rock)
Alright, I'll try Open Kang I guess. I'm so new to this... Sorry for all the questions :/.
It seems like a hassle to reinstall all your apps often so that you can switch to a new ROM . Does this need to be done every time the device changes its firmware version?

Well... you can always backup your apps with Titanium Backup, and save all your preferences (such as Nova Launcher, Minimalistic Text, etc.) and then reload that. And usually if you stick one one Rom and then an update comes from that rom, you don't have to wipe data (just cache & dalvik cache). But if you're switching Roms, then yes, you have to reinstall all your apps.

with titanium pro its a matter of minutes, saves your app-data also, so you don't loose your highscores. but as was mentioned before, updates go through without factory-reset most of the time once you're settled.
btw, aokp is perfectly stable.
I'm running gummy with the latest lean kernel and love it. Battery life is great and performance is top notch. Big fan of team gummy. I get a solid full days use regularly. usually around 20% when I plug it in after 16 hours of use and I use it fairly regularly, wifi, 4g, txt, web, etc.

Hi all,
I've scoured the forum for quite some time now and have tried a number of newish ROMs (those posted in May) but have not found any that are compatible with Ktoonsez's latest kernel. A lot of people have advised against overclocking but my GS3 certainly performs better with OC enabled. I flashed one of Jamison's nightlies months ago and it has been the most stable/reliable out of any ROM I've tested since. I either got lucky and found the perfect ROM for my phone or I just haven't found a solid new ROM that supports OC'ing. I've had random reboots, force closes, etc. with all the new ROMs I've tried so I was hoping someone could give me some ideas on a ROM/kernel combination that might work for me. The only reason I even want to change my current ROM is because many of my Google apps report that an update is available, but when I go to update, my "device doesn't support this version." It's quite frustrating and a pretty sad reason to switch ROMs when literally EVERYTHING else works flawlessly, but it is a problem for me and I'd like to be able to stay up to date. Sorry for the long post, but anyone with advice would be wonderful. Thanks!
You need a kernel that support OC, its not ROM specific.. You do however, need to check kernel's description to which base it works with.. Sometimes they will have one for just touchwiz or touchwiz and aosp, thats pretty much the main thing to look for and just try different ones.. It should also say if its OC able or not

I have searched up and down for proper settings for kernel apps I usually run cm13 based ROMs even though I found wolly GPE to work nice without any tweaks but I like how CM is set up and feels a lot more smoother but one problem is my scrolling tends to hang and I play an online game religiously (fun run 2) and it seems to be more laggy while running CM, I'm pretty good with Linux computer wise and I'm just coming around to android development I enjoy what you guys do a lot of aspects are similar but there's a lot that's different as well. Anyways enough rambling. If anyone could tell me the best ROM and Kernel to fit my preference or even give me a link (I've read a lot already) I'd highly appreciate it.
I'm S-ON CM13 (not any CM based ) by the way not sure if that may be hanging me up also... Forgot to ask is busy box a must or is it just something to run certain apps ?
Also I'm not stuck on just L Speed if there's another Kernel tweaker someone could recommend I'd be more than glad to test it out!
