What is BFS-304 - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I see this and lower numbered BFS' listed in change logs. I was just wondering what it is, is it a newer sourced kernel or something?
Thanks

The BFS seemed more technical and I just wanted to see if I could get a quick synopsis as to what it meant. Thanks for the link

Who's hosing you? I was just outlining my steps while toting the awesome capabilities of my G1.
I even said Enjoy.....

It was a smartass un needed comment. Coulda just gave him a quick run through of what it was.

Wow, you guys are rough....I'm not sure how smartass comes through in text, but apparently it does.
Maybe I should just edit my post to include only the link without the way I found it and call it a day?

LOL, it was just how you worded it, it came across that way. Honestly I don't know wither it was or wasn't. I was just stating what he said to your response in an easier way.

You are right, but I'm sorry there is no structure at all in this forum!!!!
There are few sticky threads but they have no normal topics.
I have seen some progressive forums where there are for e.g. few stickies as TOC's all others are descriptive branches. This forum has lack of this structure.
(forum e.g. forum.ru-board.com, www.4pda.ru/forum/)
Sorry, but here is difficult to find fast something usefull, that's why people do flood!

no im not but i think its freaking great that it's getting ur panties all knotted
This should definitely be closed. The OP never replied, and this is way off track..
But.. If you DO come back to check this thread..
The only ROMs that I know of that work with an overclocking app would be
Fresh Toast v1.1
DarchDroid v2.5.1.2 (not sure about this one though)
or maybe DarchLegend OC5.06 (He hasn't updated in a little while though, so I assume he is working on something big. )
If you come back with some actual info OP, we could help you.. otherwise..
Either way, this thread should be moved.

Well a simple question obviously causes a lot of frustration in people. If it bothers you so much tell someone who can move it, otherwise move along.
Yes this question should have been posted elsewhere, but obviously this person is fairly new to this whole "phone modding" thing... and forums.
So we can either ***** about it like we were never so inept, or we can be adults and try and help them. (also keep in mind the forum structure just kinda flipped recently)
Back on topic, everyone else has asked the right questions, what ROM you are using (if any) will determine the right answer. You gotta meet us all half-way, but Jugsy seems to put the best answer to the vague question.
Any current ROM other than those will not work with overclocking apps.

If you scroll through till the end, there is a recommended list of Apps.
I strongly recommend you Follow the guide to root, enable side loading, as well lift the market restrictions that ATT has put on the phone. No reason not to.
(The section on Launcher Pro is optional, since some people seem to like TouchWiz (i used it for a while, just switched to launcherPro to try it out) )

I still think we need a dedicated apps thread that keeps growing like the one we have for the Tilt2
i think a non-market app thread would be especially helpful
i found some new apps to add on to the pimp my captivate apps i wrote up. I no longer have access to my pdf but if one of you start a thread and make it look sexy, ill be glad to add some amazing new apps peeps should try.

I'll do it. Give me a few hours to get everything together.
Its my first time doing one of these, but I think if I can set it up right the first time, managing it will be fairly easy.
That said, is there a limit on how many post you can reserve? To give an ideal solution to the problem, I'd be looking at like 15 or so. Would people have a problem with this, or is that an acceptable number?
Sweet mate....not sure about the reserves Q...maybe check the Tilt 2 thread for ideas

Already did that. I've asked for permission (awaiting reply) to steal the design and I've made a few modifications to it that I think will make it easier to maintain and access. However, doing so requires a tremendous number of reserved posts. I'm trying to decrease the number by combining sections I think will have a low volume, but it will still take a large number of posts to do what I want.
Doesnt bother me at all but maybe ask a mod?
Just as an update.
I've gotten a mod's ok on reserving the number of posts in want. The only. Stipulation is it has to be organized. And I don't think that will be a problem.
I'm still waiting on a response from the Rhodium thread upkeeper, and iirc the thread was last updated in May. If I don't have a response by this time tomorroe, ill assume they've left XDA indefinitely, and will post the topic. If they later have an issue with my using a similar format, ill just edit my format.
In the mean time, ill continue working on the formatting of the thread and include a few items to see how it will look when populated. Hopefully this turns out as awesomely as I want it to.
I don't think this thread will take much more than an hour or so to maintain after it gets rolling, so keeping it up to date shouldn't be an issue by my logic. I just hope people provide all relavant information. Lol
It's not much, but id like to do my part to contribute its to a community that provides so much information and so many resources. Maybe this way I wont feel like such a leech. XD

Can someone please mod the MIUI rom?

The MIUI rom is fairly fast, and is very responsive, but I have not recieved the same results as other roms, for example, CM6 RC4. From my (very basic) understanding, there are some mods inputted in the rom which makes the rom faster (not just overclock). Can someone please mod the MIUI rom to make it more fast and snappier?
( JUST A THOUGHT I DON'T KNOW IF THIS IS EVEN POSSIBLE! AS MENTIONED ABOVE, I HAVE VERY LIMITED KNOWLEDGE ON THIS STUFF!)
has 1 day of check and you want a mod? What other things do you want? you have to read more and less fantasy.

Im a newbie to this but it seems to me like it is just another launcher+statusbar tweak+phone app... I've watched few videos and this is what it looked to me.
A little more than that I can say. MIUI also includes the "bounce" feel at the end of lists and also has a completely different theme from the default ListView. It also includes OTA capability from MIUI directly if you use their official versions (although Milestone doesn't seem to have this feature at the moment, while the Nexus One version includes it). The dialer, messaging and contacts app are all custom. Notifications bar also includes switches. It feels more like an overlay like HTC Sense rather than just simple tweaks.

I think he means a side by side comparison of each ROM based on features, modems, kernels, etc
Difficult due to the ever changing nature of each ROM and the ability to swap out kernels and modems. However, it's a good way to compare the ROMs without having to dig through hundreds of posts in the dev forum

You'd be better off going down the threads in the dev section and reading the first few posts. I guess you could use that list click the links but other than knowing what each rom is based off, it's pretty much useless.

It does tell you kernel, modem, known issues, and release date of most current version (admittedly that part does need updated more often). Which I grieve is about 70-80% of what op asked for. What do you want it to do, install rom for you, too?

if you to other phone's forums they have stickies for available roms and their features....comparing to them...this is little less information and not properly updated....

First time poster so I hope this is an acceptable place for this question. Can someone tell me if and which ROM is the most basic? By this I mean it is a blank slate with everything removed besides items needed to operate the phone, mms/sms, camera and internet browsing. Basically everything removed that cannot be replaced by an app from the market. I tried Preception (I think it was that one) and it was ok for a couple days and then it became unstable so I am using Serendipity.
Thanks everyone...

Stability, try andromeda, basic, go cognition. I run andromeda. There is a reason that rom has been around for so long and the dev thread is so short and always on the second or third page of the forums. Just read that thread and you will see the stabiliy.

I tried Cognition a couple months ago but something happened. Not really sure what. I think I used SGS and removed too much stuff and thought it would be easier to just reflash. I was going to go back to it but it looks like the dev may be awol from reading the thread.
I will try andromeda but I am a minimalist and would like for my phone to be the same where if I personally don't need it but it is available from the market or other means then I don't want it on my phone. (not sure if that makes sense but I am pretty new in the custom phone world)
