[Q] Froyo tweaks - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Are there any available tweaks of RAM, Swap, Zipalign, IPv6, kernel, battery, internet, sdcard, gpu or sysctl for Froyo? It would be a great thing because my opinion is that Froyo better fits our X8, especially Floyo 0.30 that I'm using for three months day to day without reboot crash or laging. Thanks

Question about Games + Roms

Hey guys, i'm looking for a good, stable, rom without the 10mb Ram hack. I play alot of games on my G1 and i was wondering what the best rom would be. i tried WG Build but it was too laggy for regular phone operations. Any suggestions would be appreciated

You sure you tried the Rom from my signature?
Im running fast and stable..
Make sure you use the app "SetCPU" to overclock the phone to MAX while playing and running Emulators and or Games.
To save battery revert back when you are not using these to conserve battery life.

[Q] Tackling Serious Samsung Galaxy S Issue (found with Temp+CPUV2)

Hello guys,
I recently installed an app from the market called Temp+CPUV2. All the app does is it displays CPU Clock speed, CPU Utilization %, CPU Temperature, and Free RAM on a tile as a Widget.
lately, I have been observing fluctuations in the clock which ranges from 100MHz to 1GHz. I thought the widget was faulty. Then later on, I began observing constantly time to time and I found out that the phone really operates on different frequency at different times. Apart from changing the clock speed, I think the self-assessing algorithm eats too much RAM figuring out next clock speed and slows down the phone.
I assume that this features is implemented to save battery, but at the same time, this feature kills the phone by slowing it down so badly that I sometimes feel like smashing the phone against a wall or something.
I use a rooted JM1 with SU and no other mods.
Is there any way to stop the phone from assessing the clock and change it from time to time? I think that's the real reason why the phone lags in he first place.
Nope, thats just the way it works. Install a overclocking kernel and SetCPU if you want to control the clock speed but I advise you just uninstall that widget and not bother worrying about it as you are getting worked up over nothing. SetCPU and a kernel is more trouble then its worth and is very unstable
That's a powersave mechanic.
Save your battery.
It also try to keep your phone cold.
In fact it work well.
It same in computers.

I doubt the lag you are getting has anything to do with this. Look for the lag fixes like Voodoo, Z4mod, or OCLF.
I use z4mod myself, flawless performance

Problem with LAGFIX (ext4) - Not good idea??

I have been using lagfix - ext4 since eclair and I was convinced of its benefit.
BUT recently I discovered it may not be such a good idea after all on froyo (v2.2.1). Why?
IT WILL LAG much more than RFS not at the beginning but at a few days into use/uptime later.
I only realised this after converting all my partitions back to RFS. After boot, I can't really tell the difference betw. RFS and ext4 smoothness (both are very smooth). But after 48-50 hours uptime later, with ext4 lagfix, I realised that free RAM seldom goes above 50MB and there is always a constant heavy cpu usage by kswap0 process everytime I use the phone. With RFS only, the free RAM varies up to 65Mb and the kswap0 cpu usage isnt as high as ext4 (i.e. there is still some lull period where kswap0 is not constantly hogging cpu). Of course RFS still slows down (but tolerable) overtime but not as bad as ext4.
I'm suspecting that the ext4 filesystem is hogging or leaking memory leading to smaller pool of useable RAM. This is causing the constant swap of dormant apps out of memory thus contributing to the lag. I am kind of convinced that the hated LAG is caused by this kswap0 process. (This kswap0 process usually has low usage just after boot thus the great speed but as time goes on it deteriorates)
Anyone has the same experience or want to comment on this?
(I am using doc rom 9.6.6 + speedmod k13d kernel)
I never had lag with RFS on 2.2 and above, but ive been running lagfix (ext 2/4) since the day i got my phone,
i do find that after a long time RAM gets reduced alot, but if my phones been running for 48+ hours, (which is rare cause i always flashing) i do a reboot to spice up my life a little lol
you should just do that too.
ext4 isnt harmful to the phone in the same sense as lets say...... overclocking CPU.
lagfixes only cause problems, like file corruption (when flashing without disabling) but a re-partition in odin fixes that up

[Q] Talon-dev4.1 battery life

Wanted to post in the talon dev thread but didnt have enough posts.
so heres my setup
I'm running serendipity VII build 2 rom
Talon dev 4.1 1440 oc 340mb kernel
and JVQ modem (tried jv6, and jvo)
also i have the bluedipity theme installed
My voltage control settings
sched = vr (tried sio, and noop. didnt notice much difference)
Conservative (powersave is unresponsive [on 100mhz constantly, takes forever to get back into VC], ondemand sits between 1000 and 1440mhz constantly [lowest ive seen it go is 800, but not for long])
UV to -75 across the board (was on 125 on talon 1200 oc, but too many issues on 1440)
my battery life was ok on talon 3.1 oc 1200 340mb
but now i hardly make it through the day with minimal use
i unplugged around 8:30am by the time i get home from work at 5:30 battery is at only around 28%
by minimal use i mean i only made 2 phone calls, send/receive a few texts, check email, facebook, xda, and a couple sites once on lunch and thats it
any suggestions on improving my battery life? id be happy with 1200 oc if i could have decent battery life
I got decent battery life with Talon 0.4.1 1200 OC. I use Dlev-3.8.1 rom, with TUBJV6 modem. Bettery lasted 2 days after full charge with normal use, including several short calls, a couple hours wifi internet and Angry birds, and some other usage I couldn't recall.
Something isn't right. You should be using the ondemand scheduler, and it shouldn't be stuck between the high clocks. It should go down to 100MHz when nothing is being done, and jump up to 1000MHz+ when there is activity. Either something went wrong during flashing, or there's something running in the background that's keeping the phone active.
I haven't tried any of the later Talon builds, but considering I get up to 2 days with more than moderate use on one of the older ones (no undervolting, 1200MHz OC), such a decrease in battery performance seems off.
That's what I thought. Ill go back to 1200 oc and see how it is

[Q] Undervolting harmful??

Ok, I am a noob when it comes to OC/UV, i have searched and found this and this but i still have some doubts about undervolting, so IS UNDERVOLTING HARMFUL N SHOULD IT BE USED FOR EVERYDAY USAGE TO GAIN BETTER BATTERY BACKUP??
I am using jetpack 2.1 rom with talon 1ghz kernel (I dont use OC as its harmful) n i have set the values under voltage control app in each clockspeed - 100mV n tested thru stabilitytest app n neocore app, battery is performing considerably better but should i use it under everyday circumstances??
Sorry if I am repeating another question (I really have searched to my best efforts), just wanted to confirm coz i only have 1 phone n i am not very rich
No reason why not, I do, and there is no harm to be done unless you uv too much and get into a deep sleep situation but a re flash will sort that at very worst, but as you have stable values that work, then stay as you are and enjoy better battery
