Ty brotha,

Nice one bro.
Just a question. How were you able to get 405 total mem? I only get 373.

Is this an underclocked kernel our something, if not then I definitely need this.

That's sweet! Is he interested in more testers? Lol

yea its a uv kernel but its super fast it gets 4k in quadrant at 1.1

morfic's kernel
Where's Morfic's kernel...I don't see it listed in the development thread. Also are you running CM with that?

Yea, if i read the screen it would make sense. Sorry I found the kernel Thanks for the tip!

yea he literally just launched them

im guessing the kernel?

I think I'll try this, CM7 latest nightly?

yea its the kernel giving you that memory Im sure.
UHHH I want this kernel. Can I test too? Or does he just have his peeps. Ya know.lol PM me if ya want

witch version of the kernel r u using. I know there are like 3-4 of the posted in the development pages.

look for the newest dates and the uv11 tew

underclocking
Is it just the ROM or do I run an APP to underclock it? Sorry for the newb question. This is my first android phone!

u have to use setcpu from market the hit auto detect frequencies has to be 2.2.0 or higher, the version of app i mean

I gotta lookbefore I speak
That's twice in the same day. Should loo around. ITs built right into settings. Set it to max 750.

THANKS
Best thing to happen to me today Sarni! Thanks loads!

[Q] How do you overclock the Sidekick 4g?

Hey How do you get more then 1ghz? My dad uses another android phone and he overclocked his to 1.8ghz and he said his method doesn't work the same. I saw somthing on kernels or somthing. Can someone point me to the right path and i need a very detailed thread... thanks. Also I am not talking about setcpu that is not overclocking that is only used for underclocking and custom speed use during specified uses. I need one that actually runs it faster

there is presently no way to overclock the SK4G.... sduvick has been working on adding overclocking to the Bali kernel tho. he might even still have one posted from a previous attempt, but I don't think it is stable.
just for kicks I tried the Tegrak Overclock app from the market, as it is made for Samsung Galaxy S devices so I thought it was worth a try.... but it said this device is not supported.

actually, i sent an email to the dev of that app. they sent me an email back early yesterday morning, i gave them some info on our phone and how similar they are to the galaxy s phones they're supporting. so a this morning i checked my email and they sent a test app and it worked perfectly. the app will allow you to overclock to 1.3GHz but only 1.2GHz is stable. They told me they will update the app in the market very soon so keep an eye out, i was gunna post a thread explaining in the general when ready. i've been running @ 1.2Ghz all day it doesnt kill battery too much either. so you guys should be able to overclock pretty soon i already saw our device name on the market for their next update, i was able to reach 2068 on quadrant with my TouchMIUIwiz ROM @ 1.152GHz, i posted pics in this post
Sduvick is also working on a Custom kernel with OC

Sorry about being a bit late to the party guys, had an xbox night with my roommates last night, I'm back to work on the kernel again today, should be able to get another working test going sometime today. Pretty sure that just adding the UV stuff will make it stable, but we'll see when it's ready.

The Tegrak update for the Sidekick is out, available in the market! Running at 1.152 Ghz now, and I see that the app allows you to raise or lower voltages as well..... VERY cool app!
Edit: setting voltages is available only with the paid version.
Sent from my SGH-T839

Running 1.2 now so nice 1400+ quadrant score with lightning rom v2 running multitask settings on v6. too bad you have to set it every time the phone boots unless you pay. 1.252 has some instability and 1.3 crashed the phone as soon as it was set :-( but still this is awesome

you can hit 1900's and 2000's with touchmiuiwiz! but yeah 1.3 doesnt play well.

I was having problems with touchmiuiwiz that I need to figure out at a later time but from what teddy has been saying he gets over 2000 ^ up there

How does this help any and what improvements are in the newer versions of the server?

So it wont conflict with and rom,kernel etc..? And what are the exact tweaks it does?

Updated first post.

do you have flash your previous tweak (2.3.5)?

Installing now. Guess I will see what happens. Installation error.

Tried to flash said aborted. Any ideas?

I got it to flash fine. I will have to do a little more testing but it seems as though the keyboard (at least) is more responsive.

Slight improvement over 2.3.5 and leaps over stock nice work and thanks alot... also ForeverSupra check your PM. thanks again bro!!!

nevermind reboot fixed issue

Just flashed, so don't know squat about long term stability.... but HMOF it really adds real zip to the home and scrolling in browser (I'm on Humble 4.22 with other tweaks at 1.276).
F quadrant scores, this is a change improves my real use of the phone, not the number that pops when I'm bored and watching the benchmark.

[Q] Kernel/Tweak suggestions for a new(ish) Android/Nexus S user?

Hello there
I recently purchased a Nexus S, it's soooo good to be on Android, I love it!
So I've played around with some ROMs and I've settled on MIUI, I absolutely love the menu scheme and a few other features.
I've done some reading up on different kernels and ROMs for the Nexus S and I'm finding it hard deciding what to go for.
Of course, I know, it's all down to me, my personal preference and what I use my phone for, but, I was wondering if you guys wouldn't mind suggesting a few things?
I'd like to stick on a MIUI based ROM at least (mainly for the menu scheme), and of course I want what everyone wants; decent battery life, decent performance, nice and solid.
So, what d'you reckon in regard to different kernels and ROM mixes?
Thanks very much for your time, any help is greatly appreciated

Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App

well well , i am in the same situation as you are , that don't know which rom and kernel to choose
i was using stock + talon 3.2.1 kernel , it's damn good
i am now using Brainmaster's MIUI , it's good as well , but as we all know , MIUI is kinda like battery killer ... so i need a good kernel to make battery lasts as longer as possible
currently i am using Franco kernel feel little lag , perhaps it's because i may set wrong governor ...
i also heard Lucid and Matrix lasts pretty long battery life , so i am planning using franco for next few days and then flash other kernel to see if it's true.
but one thing for sure , if you wanna have battery last as long as possible , then stock would be your first choice , personal experience more stock = more battery life

Funny you should say that Mathkid! I'm using Matr1x right now, thoroughly impressed with the performance so far! I'll use it over the next week or so and see how I do, but this is promising results already Do you have any recommendations for tweaks or anything I should be setting to coincide with your kernel? I haven't OC'd or anything
Thanks very much for the feedback qtwrk! Good to hear someone else in in the same boat but is doing a bit more about it! I need to be a bit more adventurous

Qt I would go either ondemand, smartassv2, or lazy... for me, lazy seems to offer the best battery life with a retention of snappiness... but you can't go wrong with any of em
Eternal maybe ezekeels mods? Just be careful tho, because deep idle can be a bit of a bugger sometimes....
In addition try using 1.2 or 1.3 ghz
Please feel free to post in the matrix thread if you have any questions!!

Awesome, thanks very much for the feedback! I'll post on the Matr1x thread to let you know how I get on

Sweet lord.... (for lack of a better term)
This is f****ing amazing!
Using MIUI with Matr1x v9.0 CFS with the lazy governor:
I've been up and had my phone off charge from 5:30am (yes, I know, work is an evil, evil thing) It's now 4:32pm and I'm on 89% battery!?
I may have been at work all day... but that doesn't mean I haven't been using my phone! In fact I was using it nearly all day!
The craziest thing is... I have it OC'd to 1.3GHz, snappy as ever, in fact I don't think I've used a faster phone?
Okay... so there's a little something; I've had data and wifi turned off (I'll just turn 'em on for when I need 'em) and I'm using JuiceDefender Ultimate to help out, but, this proves as a suuuuper nice setup for performance and battery life.
Absolutely astonished, I know it's only been one day, but, if nothing changes, I think I'll be sticking with this as my setup for the foreseeable future
Excellent work Mathkid! I'll be posting screenshots of my future setups to my DeviantArt page: eternalkernel.deviantart.com in the future and I'll be sure to mention my setup and give you praise. People are always curious about the innards of the phone, not just how it looks, so that should help spread the word a bit more about your awesome work.
Thanks again Mathkid, keep it up!

For the best overall performance and battery life, definitely try the Matr1x kernel..
If you want some more battery life, but less performance, try the franco.Kernel
If you still want more battery life, then give Morfic's TEUV kernel a try.

[Q] You just Bought a G2x for your wife - do you ROM it or Stock it?

I think the title sums it up.
THANK YOU !

Rom, unless she uses it so little it doesn't matter. The same goes for anyone, really. If they don't know what custom roms are, they don't need them.

Good answer.
I say the same.
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium

I disagree, do you want to give her some P.O.S. that hardly functions or a piece of gold that will eat the soul of most any phone that comes near it?
Here was my experience on stock:
First problem was vibrate not functioning correctly, second was touch screen being stupidly non-responsive, to the point I couldn't zoom in the browser, third, it was as ugly as some irradiated inbred cannibal.
Give her CM7, with a 1.1GHz battery life kernel and find a suitable theme for it.

appreciate your responses!
Will go ROM based on your answers.
Now it's just matter of finding one that most of all is stable....

I have used that one for a while. Many bugs in my experience. Then pure ported one, still behaved odd.
I think some forum members said that Eaglesblood is rock-solid.

I've been off it since the ICS Alpha, but the Euroskank Nightlies worked great for me. I'd load one, get it set up and play with it and make sure it's running good. I've noticed people making comments about stuff being broken in the newer CM releases, and since the Euroskank's are kangs those features may also be broken.

Yeah, use Eaglesblood 2.3.7 cm based, and use morfic's ELP kernel and use the CM performance settings to set it to 750 mhz and set at boot. Will give amazing stability and speed, plus battery life for days if she's a light user. If she's a heavy user (games, etc...) set it to 1100 mhz.

Whatever you may use, either of the ROMs have their own qualities and defects. But one thing I have noticed: when using Rom Mannager app the battery gets emptied quicker. The difference might be of 2-3hours/day.

I have heard this to be true with Titanium Backup as well; restoring apps makes it drain faster. Who knows if it's really true or not?! but some say that they feel this is the case...
I do it all manually. Takes more time, but I just got to know it's all correct. OCD!

If you use an app like Set CPU you will notice that it automatically adjusts the clock frequency depending on what you're doing. So, if you doing an operation like a huge restore, yea it's going to use some battery.

I tried several ROMs, attempting to get past the lockups, reboots, etc. EaglesBlood's was the most stable that I tried; Weapon's worked well at the start but started into the reboot cycle after about a week. With the EB ROM I rarely had problems.

if u want a flawless stable rom flash hellfire phoenix 1.9
