Yes.

I do agree with you.

First of all.

You don't need to do all of this stufs.

Just after flashing the new rom, wipe the battery stats.

And then fully recharge the phone turned off.

That's all you need.

And at least twice a month you should fully discharge the battery until the phone turn off it self.

and then recharge it turned off.

Unfortunately I have found that I usually do have to do all that. My phone can be very funny with battery readings. It charges to 100% and then stops really charging it, but if you disconnect it drop a few % very quickly. I found if I then put it back on charge for a while then it doesn't drop so quickly when I disconnect it again. i guess it will be different for everybody though :P

What is your reasoning for that?

To refresh the cells of the battery.

Otherwise, the life of each battery for cell phones is no more than 1000 recharge.

Well, consider it yourself?!

It's official. Starkos OC kernel won't boot for me at all.

Can someone make an 692mhz kernel and upload it pls? It'll be great for many of us. :P

Give this a try. It's oc'd to an optional max of 691Mhz, but is set to only go as high as 614Mhz as default. You should (& any one who is using an oc'd kernel for that matter!) get SetCPU from HERE to control the clock speeds.

Remember, anyone who tries these kernels it's at your own risk & you should make nand/bart backups before hand...

I never heard of such a need in case of lithium batteries. On the contrary, you can only harm them by letting them fully drain - but the electronics prevent this. You can safely charge them from any level, does not matter for the life of the battery. I have a sony Ericsson P800, more then 5 years old and its battery is still working :P

Short report about the rom. I use the 0.30 since yesterday with the 710 MHz kernel and 64 MB swap. I don't have any problems so far, only the rotate stops working sometimes, but an reboot solves the problem.

Now i have a fast and usable phone, so thanks to Tom G for the rom, and starkos for the kernel.

Instructions

These instruction are only for release 0.3 and later. For earlier releases you must use fastboot.

1. Install Clockwork recovery image if you haven't already. Clockwork (AmonRA's recovery will not work).

2. Download both the rom zip file and the gapps zip file.

3. Copy both zip files to your sd card. This can be done my removing the sd card and putting it into a pc, or mounting it while it is in the phone, or using 'adb push <file> /sdcard/'.

4. Reboot into recovery.

5. Make a nandroid backup so you can revert if necessary.

6. Install first the rom using the install update from sd card option.

8. Next install GApps the same way.

9. If you were not previously using a CyanogenMod rom you MUST wipe /data/.

10. Reboot.

In other words, it's JUST like flashing a 2.1 rom?

Or do I really need to use the recovery menu, why won't Clockwork work from within android, isn't that the point of clockwork?

There's something with the update script that doesn't agree with AmonRa apparently :D It is just like flashing a 2.1 rom, but you have to use Clockwork. Cheers!

EDIT: Just to report on the rom :P I'm using starkos' 710Mhz kernel with compcache set to 18% (default) and 64MB swap with swappiness set to 20 (a swap file using swapper2) and it's awesome. I felt sluggish earlier when I was relying only on compcache but the addition of swap fixed this. Cheers!

I wipe stats every time when I flash new rom.

And now for me 1min=1%. It's terrible!!! And problem is in scale: it always 528Mhz. If manually set scale to 245 phone living very long.

This is probably a silly question but in setcpu do you have scaling set to 'ondemand'?

hi Friends,

I am getting error "failed to move application there is not enough storage left" while moving application to sdcard my configuration is like this.

In my sd card i created:

Swap 32MB

Ext2-size 512 MB

Other Fat32.

what could be the problem....?

Can't remember guys...if I use swapper2 do I need to create swap partition?

Dalvik on internal memory and not sd? or a2sd not installed properly or running?

No, swapper2 doesn't make swap partition.

It can make swap file automatically, or it can use existing swap partition (also automatically).

The difference is that swap partition is slightly faster, since the swap file has a small overhead of using the existing file system to reach the blocks of swap, and the swap file can be fragmented.

Edit:

It is typically an issue when using a hard disk, since the fragmentation of files leads to increased seek time - of course, using an SD card it doesn't count.

I didn 't get the Compcache-AND-Swap-thing completly. Could you explain that once again, please?

Is it possible to use compcache AND swap with swap-partition only or do i have to install Swapper? Compcache uses the partition first and blocks it to swap, wich gets enabled later while booting??? Or am i wrong?

At the moment I have non-overclocked CM03, 512 mb ext-partition for a2sd and 32mb swap, wich may be too little. Free reports me around "19000" swap.

I think about partitioning again

1) Nandroid-Backup by Clockwork -> Store this on Desktop

2) AmonRA (my wifes pulse still has it installed :P 0 swap/512 ext/

3) Nandroid-Restore by Clockwork

4) Install Swapper2

5) Nandroid Backup

6) Patch Kernel by Starkos-691-version

Would you recommend that?

BTW: today my battery seemed draining slighly faster too. i thought, that was caused by compcache, wich i did not - of course - use with FLB 17. Was i wrong?

Hi AJV,

Thanks for replay...

I had not done any special changes, just i installed v0.3....

Do I need to do any changes.....?

CM6_0.3.oc691_signed.zip

it works.

my installation was: beta_20 release patched with boot_flb_0_20.zip with 691 mhz max.

then i flashed _30 from tom_g, after that i patched starkos last rom (614 mhz default)

then enabled compcache and setcpu to 672 - 245 ondemand.

reboot

runs perfekt

thx very much

sooo...... :P do I need to create partition or not (talking about swapper).....cba to install all the aps over again :D

Barnacle wifi works for me on .20 and .30. It's not very reliable, but it does the job. Make sure you tick "Skip WPA supplicant" in the settings.

I posted a thread about it here

http://android.modaco.com/content/t-mobile...le-wifi-tether/

That worked for me too. I didn't know that the Skip WPA supplicant can make such a difference :P thanks, nice step by step thread.

Thanls you so much.

Now I won't need to use the setcpu application.

This is much better solution.

Because we need just a beat overclock.

To handle the compcache.

Nothing more.

Thanks once again.

I want to use dark tremor a2sd in CM6 - flbmod versions had it installed already, so how do I get it in CM6?

splitboot the boot.img

And edit the init.rc

you need to start the a2sd service wile the os initalize.

Or just type this in the terminal.

Reboot first in recovery.

then connect to pc:

and via adb type this:

adb remount

adb shell

cp -r /data/app /sd-ext/app/

rm -r /data/app

ln -s /sd-ext/app /data/app

reboot
If you want to use dalvik-cache to sd? continue
cp -r /data/dalvik-cache /sd-ext/dalvik-cache/

rm -r /data/dalvik-cache

ln -s /sd-ext/dalvik-cache /data/dalvik-cache

reboot
But remember. If you want to revert the action you will have to do it via adb in recovery again. move the apps back to data
adb remount

adb shell

rm /data/app

cp -r /sd-ext/app /data/app/

rm -r /sd-ext/app

reboot
move the dalvik-cache back to data continue
rm /data/app

cp -r /sd-ext/dalvik-cache /data/dalvik-cache/

rm -r /sd-ext/dalvik-cache

reboot

Best regards

download the dtapps2sd-2.7.5-rc3c-signed.zip

and flash the zip truth clockwork

....you will have darktremor...
