Rom Help.

Hello,
i recently installed froyo and i just rooted my phone, but im experiancing a lot of lag after the root. Ive been searching and i have been looking on the forums but what ive gotten so far is to Rom my phone to fix it.. a lot of people keep recommandign different roms saying cog, or vibrant hybrid, etc.. but as i was doing research for people who might have the same problem i saw that someone said something about a lagfix? idk whats a good rom how do i get this lagfix.i dont know if thats in the rom or not but some help would be really nice. any suggestoins or anything, ohh and i NEED to have tethering enabled so if anything takes it away please let me know.
thank you

Most of the popular roms on the development section have setirons kernel which adds a custom clock work mod recovery to your phone. With that kernel you can install a bunch of different lag fixes depending on what you prefer. I am running mikey's doc rom with the ext 4 lagfix. Check out his rom. All you need is clock work recovery since you're already rooted and on froyo.

you said you are running this one correct?http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=818030

Yeah thats the rom I am running. I even got hsupa to work but you don't have to do that of don't want to. Follow the instructions and you will be set. Remeber to back up all your data with titanium backup and take precaution when following the steps.
Fyi if you brick your phone I am not responsible. (Doubt you will though)
Have fun.

[Q] Nexus S Random call problems

Hi to all,
I have a ramdom problem with my Nexus S. Sometimes, when I try to make a call, the phone seems to work well but the call fails. The screen remains as if trying to establish the call but this is not done.
I think that the problem is only to make calls but I can receive it without problems.
When the error ocurs, is needed to stop the data conection (eg APNDroid) and then the Nexus works again... till the next error. I have this problem the 30% of the times (more or less).
I asked in spanish forums and a lot of people has the same problem.
Is this a known bug?... and the solution?.
I have the low signal problem too?.
I'm sorry to say that bus this is my 3rd Android phone (the first official google) and is the worst that I never had!!!.
Please, help!!!!

I had the same problem too....
Any help?

Hi,
Are you stock or rooted?
If rooted, what ROM?
When did the problem start?
When was the last time you updated your PRL or your phone profile?
The more info the better everyone on these forums can help.
Good luck

Well ID first update profile & PRL. Im not sure which ROM has that option. Some do some don't. Just go to settings/about phone and tap the tab that gives the option.
If not then flash back to ur original ROM if u have it to do the above.
If that doesn't work maybe try to see if its an app that is causing it. Just flash a ROM but do not add anything to it. Make the calls to check it.
I'm on Slimbean and I have no issues if u want to try that ROM.
Good luck

Something wrong with my phone.

OK so it seems my phone has an issue with any rom other than stock as I have tried them all and I have 3 things that happen: a. Phone will reboot on its on or b. The screen will go black with the buttons lit up. Or c. It will freeze on me. This is any rom other than bone stock. Any one know what could be the cause of this?
Sent from my Nexus S using Tapatalk

okay , your phone looks like hard to use.
what version/model is it ? is it possible you flashed GSM ROM to 4G Nexus S ? or 4G ROM to GSM ?
okay , your operator is AT&T , forget it ... it wouldn't be 4G
orginal MIUI and orginal CM7 , all the same ?

I haven't tried any miui roms but every rom I have tried has been for 9020s. I have tried bugles beast, NSCollab, oxygen, we scream for ice cream (which I fully expect to have issues but could not resist trying) , blanddroid, and nexusMV all with the same issue. I even tried several different kernels to see if that would make a difference but it didn't
Sent from my Nexus S using Tapatalk

There's a low chance your cpu can't take any voltages/frequencies outside stock kernel range. Because that black display/lit buttons thingy happens to me if I go too low on voltages or freq.

What are the stock voltage rages? So I can try that theory out?
Sent from my Nexus S using Tapatalk

Nexus has model of 9020S ??
i only heard about 9020A,F,T and 9023
default MIUI doesn't over/underclock or UV

To further update today I have been running a stock 2.3.7 rom made by drew garen that has been running well with no reboots, freezes or anything but again it is stock with the exception of being rooted and 2.3.7 instead 2.3.4 like my stock rom and the only reason I am running it instead of my actual stock one is for google wallet.

Nah, NS4G is running 2.3.7 as it includes the required NFC chip update to run Google wallet.

OK so even with that rom it has been acting stupid though not as bad then I went to my stock rom and again the same thing so I think I am just going to unroot and take it to best buy because I am pretty sure it is not supposed to have this much trouble
Sent from my Nexus S using Tapatalk

Well I am completely stock and unrooted now and so far no problems so my question would now be did I just have a bad root or something? Should I retry rooting now that its back to original or should I take it to best buy and try to get them to replace it? I really like playing with rooted phones and trying different roms and stuff but it is kinda impractical when my phone won't handle it...that's why I am wondering if I had done something wrong maybe?
Sent from my Nexus S using Tapatalk

I have the NS4G but I've never had those issues on any ROM

Well after being unrooted since yesterday I am now no longer getting any freezes, black screens, or reboots. My question now is, did I possibly do something wrong in the root process that might have caused this problem?

Did you try re-rooting it?

I did just now using different more up to date rooting kit files then the ones I used before. I am going to stick with the stock rom for the rest of the day just rooted and see if the problem happens and then if it doesn't do like this then I may try running a custom rom and if this does not work I will unroot it again and throw the phone against a brick repeatedly so best buy will take the thing back as I tried taking it back today and i couldn't come up with a good enough reason for them too take it back it seems.

OK update time. Running stock rooted after unrooting and rooting (using a different root kit this time) I am having no issues what so ever and I even tried taxing the CPU by running app after app ran some heavy games and things of that nature with no restarts or freezes, however I tried NSCollab for a little while and it did act up though not as bad as before so I have gone back to stock rooted and everything is fine for now. I may try some other rom later but for now I am happy just to be rooted with no issues with the stock rom. I might try a less modded rom like buggles beast or oxygen net go round though other than not having the notification Widgets and reboot/recovery option when pressing the power button stock rooted does everything I want it too.

I think that problem could be kernel. Have you tried any customer kernels? Previously I had freeze issues and this so called 'morning coma', kernel fixed all those problems

while that could be the issue with that rom I think I have discovered my real problem could be something to do with titanium backup, either the program its self or one of my backed up apps. this morning on my stock rom it rebooted twice so I got to thinking and decided to do a wipe but instead of restoring my apps from titanium back up I just used the market website to send all of my apps to my phone and so far that seems to have fixed the issue. the only apps i did not re-install was amazon appstore (and a few games from there) rom manager, and titanium backup so I am assuming my problem is contained in one of those apps if I am no longer having the problem.

With titanium do you you just back up apps and app data? Or system data too?

Thanks in advance

time for you to do some reading, if all your using is ROM manager, then you need to read up on NVFlash. without NVFlashing your phone, if you get stuck in a bootloop, you cant access recovery.
as for changing the ROM, just check these forums from time to time. I wouldnt reccomend automatic updates anyway because most updates in roms introduce new quirks and issues, and if you look at the thread in the forum before flashing it youll get a better idea of what those issues are.

I have flashed a new recovery have had one rom boot loop but have tried a couple like the cm9 but missing a few features I would like to have that are not in it, there so much stuff that's possible trying to find a set up I like lol
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA

Read read read and read some more. A little reading goes a long way! You nvflased your phone right? I don't even use rom manager. I boot into recovery each and every time I want to switch roms. As for updates just go to the Site or check out rootzwiki. That is where my buddy dj posts the roms. Here is euroskank Site http://fitsnugly.euroskank.com/
Hopefully I don't get heat for this lol

[Q] TMobile G2X Root and ROM advice for the complete noob

ok so here is the deal. my g2x is crashing like the hindenburg several times a day, very frustrating. Tmobile won't help since it's out of warranty. I need all the help i can get when it comes to doing any rooting and/or mods to the phone to get it to stop crashing so much. i have not rooted the phone yet, so advice on the best way for a numbskull like me to do it (superonecilck?). then, advice on what would be a stable mod or rom or whatever you call it to install on the phone so i stop being so frustrated. now mind you, whatever rom/mod etc that is recommended please make sure it is so easy a 2 yr old could do it, because i know me..i WILL screw it up!
any and all advice is welcomed. i am beyond pissed at this phone now and i need to keep from throwing it at the wall. Tmobile won't budge about helping to replace this, only grant me the full upgrade pricing early, so i can give them another $150-300 for a new phone, while new customers come in and get stuff free.
thanks to any and all who respond.

Have you installed the latest V21y software? That seems to have cleared up lots of the problems some people were having with the g2x.

i have not tried that yet....now that I know this I will try though. Anything is better than giving TMobile more $.

I first used this to gain root access:http://www.unlockroot.com/index.html . It's a simple one-click process.
Then I followed this guide from step 2: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1060715. I personally used CyanogenMod 7.2 http://download.cyanogenmod.com/get/jenkins/2856/cm-7.2.0-p999.zip .
Optionally, you can also flash a kernel: Trinity ELP(http://goo.gl/XqDn2) and Faux52 LG (http://faux.androidro.ms/P999-CM-Kernel-052-sv-lg-stable.zip)seem to be the most popular... Instructions to flash the Kernel:
[ Installation procedure: ]
1. reboot to CWM
2. Clear cache
3. Advanced, clear Dalvik
4. install zip from SDcard
5. Reboot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If one of the kernels gives you issues, try flashing the other one.
I'm pretty noobish to this as well, considering i only flashed my phone a couple days ago, but I used this procedure and it didn't give me any problems at all.

Thanks. We have full detailed guides listed for new owners in the development settings. Some people have issues with faux 52 kernel, if so try using 48 or 50 in place of 52.

Never had arbitrary crash problems with my unrooted stock g2x on either original Froyo or GB update. If your phone still has problems after the GB update you might have an app problem, or a hardware problem. Update to GB, strip all Apps, and see if it works. If it does, add the apps back in one at a time. If not, toss it.
