I just updated to rooted wifi xoom to HC3.1. No issues everything went smoothly. But now i cant overclock to 1.5ghz like i could b4 3.1. Is this something that can be fixxed when new kernels come out? or did we lose this when we update?

They are in the process of making a new kernel just have to give them time.
You did remember that you had to root and install a new kernel before you could overclock right? You may have rooted 3.1 but you have not installed a new kernel yet since there isn't one.
Yea I remember. Sorry I'm still new to the whole rooting process, been an android supporter since the beginning, G1 still on of my favorite phones lol. but I'm learning and trying to stay up to date and in the know about my device. Thanks for your help

Hello All,
I am a total newbie to all of this, I just bought a Galaxy s2 Skyrocket. I managed to find good info on how to root it and did that with something called superoneclick. So it is showing rooted with out the yellow triangle. Now for my question.
There are so many custom roms out there i have no clue what to do. All i am really looking for is a custom rom that will let me do the following if it is possible, wifi tethering, custom bootanimation and if it will let me overclock. And I guess something that is stable as i see mentioned on here a lot.
Anyway anyone that has time to help a newbie I would really appreciate it. There is a lot of great info on here but most of it is written for people that at least have a clue about this stuff.
Most of all i want to say thank you to anyone who is willing to help me in advance. And if you don't feel like helping a newbie I do understand that also.
Thank You
I like skyROCKeteer. It's a good, stable, custom rom. It'll suit all your needs. Check it out. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=19279400

First of all thank you for your reply. Am I reading this correct that I install version 2.0 and then install the addons and fixes? Or will everything be fine with the 2.0 and the fixes are already in there. Sorry to be so much trouble some of it is just confusing to me and I dont want to brick "i believe that is the correct term" my phone.
Thank You

SkyRocketeer and Sky Ice Cream Sandwich are pretty good. Next one I will be testing out will be the Red Sonja!
Red sonja is the best. Completly stable and fast. Vibrate does not work. But other then that its its perfect.
I'm using Super Stock 2.3.6. It's a rather bare bones ROM that is close to stock but with a few tweaks and removals of stuff like bloatware and other things. Overall I'm satisfied. I'm using this until the AOSP is released and some of the other ROMs become a bit more stable.
I'm using Sky Ice Cream Sandwich, it's my daily driver. Whichever rom you install, make sure you follow the dev's instructions. Only install roms for skyrocket, very important.
Most Roms in the Dev section are Stable-ish.
Red Sonja is probably the MOST stable in my OP.....less vibration, you dont have to do any work arounds, no extra flashing less the 4 intitial flashes( really 2 flashes if you dont want the comic pages)
but after that, everything is working as it would be on stock.
Thank You
First of all again thanks to everyone that gave me advise. I know have my first custom rom on my phone with the addons that looked interesting. Also a custom kernel.
I only have one question if i decide to try another rom, is there a way to go back to the way i have my phone now with out doing each step again. Like if i use the backup feature in CWM, If i do a restore will that put it back the way it is now.
Thank you ALL !!!!!

That's the point of doing the Nandroid backup. It'll restore your phone to how it was. At least that's what it's supposed to do. I honestly can't attest to it because I've never had to do it *knock on wood*
alien build 5 is awesome! free wifi tethering!
Im using ICS 6.1 with Da_g 0.43preV2 kernel script OC to 1728 so far so good

is it possible for me to run that kernel on the alien build? does ICS offer wifi tethering? and do any other roms offer the tethering unlock? thanks everyone!

Yes you can but I have never tried Alien build dont know how stable is it. ICS does offer wifi tethering. I just ICS only dont know about other rom
If there is any interest, I could try to work on making one. KitKat is made to run on devices with at least half a gig of RAM, and that's what the D2G has, so it should be a really smooth ROM.

i'd be interested in this. but it would be hard to port and bad battery life like the other 4.0+ roms.
My D2G just broke I would have loved to try out 4.4 before it crapped out.
Hey, I'd be interested in helping to build this. I'm starting to learn how to build a ROM, and have a Ubuntu VM. I'm downloading the source.
I would be really appreciate if you can do that for us! ^_^

I'm using D2G and N4, I really like this phone. Now I'm using ICS, but it's really slow. I don't want to go back to 2.x, and I even cannot find any jelly bean rom for this. I'm HUGE interested in this, and I would be honored to help you test.....(I know nothing about code....:crying
It's kind of few guys here, I gonna write post in chinese forums to tell them about this.

good luck, may want to check in the dx, d2, dpro, forums, if it KK gets ported to any of those devices, there shouldn't be much needed to port to d2g

I've looked into this myself a while ago and it appears that the only limitation is the kernel, and having to forward port all the omap3 hardware hals from gb/ics.
From google's website:
OEMs building the next generation of Android devices can take advantage of targeted recommendations and options to run Android 4.4 efficiently, even on low-memory devices. Dalvik JIT code cache tuning, kernel samepage merging (KSM), swap to zRAM, and other optimizations help manage memory
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It appears that Google utilizes KSM and zRAM on low memory devices, but we cannot compile these drivers because of locked kernel. Not sure why no one has ported 2ndboot yet from milestone2 or defy.. because that would greatly enhance our device's performance.
That's my 2c on it.
thx for reply me...

does that means there's no way to port kitkat for d2g? even jelly bean is ok...
but thanks for your care.

No, there is a way. It's still possible using 2nd-init but it will just be buggy and possibly more things broken than ics.
That' OK

Hello I am a new user on here... Ive been using this site for a long time and relaized why havent I made an account.... Anyways though I was wondering did the Bubba Kernal get discontinued for the HTC One Mini?
Yeah does seem a little quiet here on the kernel front. But I guess it doesn't help that HTC haven't released any source for devs to work on. Fingers crossed, but I think we might have to wait a bit for this phone to take off in the dev department. Maybe when CM11 becomes 100% stable we will see things move forward.

RuffBuster I could finally say thank you to you lol.... I wiped my phones OS and I read a post you wrote to recover it so thank you... I also heard that our minis is getting 4.4 KK in April.... Maybe a chance for overclocking.... :good:

The 4.4 came out on the international version. The at&t is either march or april. The sooner, the better. If I flash a rom that is not for at&t, apps on google play won't show up. Just like the games and some apps.
Edit: I think overclocking is only supported on custom kernels. The latest kernel source is still the android 4.2.2. And the kernels that we have can't overclock. On jmz's kernel it says gpu oc which means gpu overclock doesn't work. I tried with many gpu and cpu overclocking apps like tegrak, kernel tuner, and many other ones.
hi guys.. im using stock ics.. rooted and twrp..
i like ics and OC'd to 1.4 due to flash works pretty good..but was wondering..whats better for ics...dont think i want to go beyond ics dont want to loose an actual; working flash 11..
wish i could get dual boot to work lmao.. luv linux
thanks for any assistance
