right!
we all have differing needs and wants, and our devices all react differently to the different rom(binning, voltage, etc..). so a best for me, can be a worst for you. the problem is that threads like this tend to start arguments and fights. everyone thinks that they are running the best. and, depending how its being looked at, we all are running the best

[Q] JF6 vs JH2/JH3

I'm fairly new to all this droid stuff and been learning all kinds of stuff from this forum. I have one big question and that is what is the difference between JF6 compared to JH2/JH3? My captivate has JF6 and I've seen the firmware updates for the others. Is there any major improvements or am I better off sticking with what I have?
I think JH3 is quicker and seems a bit more stable, its also newer.
One thing to watch out for is the logging that comes with JH2/3. There are some easy remedies to fix it though.
Im currently using JH3 matched with unhelpful's 1.2 Kernel v1.1 and SRE1.0 My phone is performing the best it ever has.

how is your battery performance now with jh3.
the gps on jf6 for me is amazing i've only used it twice but both times it was all good, very accurate on maps, so i hope its the same or better if it can get better.
Battery performace seems normal, maybe draws a bit quicker with the overclock.
GPS locks in 4 to 5 seconds. Then again i have some tweaks built in with SRE.

Now for the second lesson. Put this in the Q/A subforum, not Dev.
And if I was able to move my own thread I would've fixed it as soon as I posted it but I can't. Also I know the difference between droid and android. Guess I won't try and shorten words anymore. Btw thanks to the ones that actually answered me.

I9000, Voodoo Vs Hardcore Kernel...

Which Kernel do you prefer for your I9000?!?
Pro's and Cons's, why do you prefer?
this is a quiz?
So don't be lazy & look in their threads
using Tapatalk
Which would you prefer/use for your Linux setup?
Debian
Ubuntu
Pro's and Cons's, why do you prefer?
For your sake, please don't try to drive a wedge between developers. We have far too many of that already... :speechless: :sighz:

i prefere SPEEDMOD KERNEL coz battery life is very good .VOODO KERNEL hve used it for long time battery draines very quick
Will be an interesting discussion, please proceed.
But hardcore will win this poll though, he puts out a lot more updates then SC.
I don't think voodoo does a great job, yet I never used speedmod... I use setirons cause of the high overclock.
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA App
I used Speedmod but without lagfix.. using lagfix with Speedmod, I experienced a lot of problem. EVERYTIME I disable lagfix it will always stuck. I'm using it coz of less battery drain.
But if I want to use lagfix i'll go to Voodoo. much more stable using lagfix.
I prefer the flames about gnome vs KDE, are much more funny.
really, in development??
speedmod +1
Why not Voodoo? because speedmod works for me... too lazy to move to Voodoo...
That's well said mate, we need try them & judge later
The devs were more than generous with us

Yes, I agree. It's our luck that so far hardcore, supercurio and others involved in kernel mods have been discussing with one another, unlike err... you get the drift....

There is competition either way, whether or not we have this thread.
This thread might actually make them work even better. Dont see no problem in that.
From playing with both mods... they run at almost the same speed... voodoo might be a little bit faster...
Speedmod does have more configs tho... so i refuse to vote for just one.... i vote both! lol

We know very well both developers are working hard to improve their kernels. Hence, there is no need to have such a thread at all.
It is precisely everyone tastes are different, and more often than not, people will try to enforce their opinions on others, resulting in a hostile environment. It will degenerate into something that might even pisses the devs off, so to speak.
The best way of course is to try out what is being offered here, does it meet your own expectation or not.
Once you are happy with whatever you have, then stick with it, until perhaps something better comes along the way.
Don't you agree?

YES indeed I do....
I don't see how asking people's opinion on two products would cause a problem.
As far as pissing someone off, I think that when someone creates something that is made public, they should accept all comments on that product, good or bad. If they do not want to hear anything bad about their product, don't make it public.
Besides, constructive criticism is good for competition.

P.S. I use Hardcore's colonel because it was the first one I came across.
SpeedMod, better battery life, performance great. ( NO LAGFIX)
Voodoo, Uses more battery, but better lagfix.

Let's go root cars!

I was looking at the Chevy Volt the other day and it got me thinking - has anyone here got any experience working with automotive firmware?
The problem with the Volt is that it has no true EV mode - no matter what, you will use fuel sooner or later. There's no button you can push to make it stick with EV at all costs. Personally I wouldn't buy one unless I at least had that option. Obviously you have to worry about how to connect to it in the first place, and then there's how well locked down they've made it etc. It would seem possible given that it's been common practice to swap out the chips on cars to gain more performance for some time now.
So the question is, has anyone tried this sort of thing? How different would it be to hacking phones?

How different from phones ? I say it is LOT different its completly 2 different thing we need some experts to do any kind of modification ..

How about you request a new forum for the Volt here and let us know the reply please?
*** New Device Forum Requests ***
There are three questions you need to ask.
A. What OS is it running (if it's not an existing one there's a whole nother level of difficulty in place)?
B. What kind of security does Chevy have in place to prevent modifying the software (I would imagine it's probably locked down pretty tight)?
C. Is there anything to be gained by modifying the software?

I don't see why they would even bother locking it down. Most people that own the vehicle probably won't even realize that it's an operating system.
Edit: And I'm guessing it's some form of Android.

Good point, I just would imagine they would use some sort of security to remove an incentive to steal the device (but I'm assuming it could be removed from the dash somehow).
I'VE JUST UNLOCKED MY VOLT. You use the little button with the open lock on the remote. Now its a matter of internal business!

Auto brightness bug - Please vote

I am sure many of us are experiencing the annoying auto brightness bug on our Nexus 7 that got introduced with version 4.2. Please go to the link below and vote for this issue (star it), as it doesn't seem to be on Google's radar right now more votes will definitely put it there. Thank you!
[Edit] looks like I don't have enough posts to add links yet. Can someone please post a link to issue 39841 on code.Google.com for me?
Auto-brightness has never worked right on any Android-device I have ever owned, it's the first thing I always turn to manual, and I doubt that'll change anytime soon.
If it were up to me, I would remove it from Android altogether.

Agreed. On my aging HTC Wildfire, still running FroYo, I have Auto-brightness disabled.
On my Nexus 7, I have both Auto-brightness and PRISM/SmartDimmer disabled.
...and I doubt the supposed battery saving benefits of either are much to get excited about...

Ged.

Well, i don't know about iDevices, i only ever used the first iphone for a few months before I bailed and went to Android.
Also, don't know why it doesn't work right on Android, probably because every manufacturer uses different light-sensors.

Well, anecdotally it worked much better on the N7 up to 4.2 came around, even if it wasn't perfect. So at the very least they can go back to that behavior. Please vote!

[Question] Flashing Too many Times?

What Happens if we flash various roms too many times ? is there is any problem to device and storage ?
You can flash hundreds of times and not have any issue.
No issues, I am a rom tester and have literally flashed this device well over 100 times.
Starting with 4.4 all moto phones have fstrim. Look it up!

Not just an app.
Why does system performance degrade witb use like flashing many ROMs? Memory fragmentation.

Reading the thread and reviews it seems the app is pretty old and more focused to the galaxy nexus and some HTC's. The galaxy nexus is a old devise. I also read a lot of current reviews on the app claming the app bricked their devices. I would be cautious of this app after reading v the reviews. I have flashed so many times and still have zero lag. So I am glad I don't really need to consider this app. I am sure on the gnex it worked well when the app was developed. No bad mouthing the original Dev. Just not sure it is still needed for our device.

Okay, sorry I guess I read your post wrong. Yes, it is now built in. I thought you were trying to reference the app. My misunderstanding.
Incorporated in 4.3.
*ahem* It's no longer an issue. You can flash away.
