[Q] random data rests, darky v9

So this is about my sisters SGS. She got her phone about 2 months ago, and asked me to make it "better" after seeing my modded DHD.
Problem is now, ever since her phone has reset itself twice, all home widgets gone, contacts apps etc.
Now by what she told me she didn't do anything funky. Both wipes happened after turning off the phone.
So my Q is, what could cause it? Known problem? Something I might've done? Cheers

what is the most stable rom?

Hi everyone,
Since last october, i have flashed numerous roms, too many to list, actually, flashed a least 20 different roms. Although, many have been impressive on looks and gizmos, none have been 100% reliable.
The most common and annoying problems recently have been losing calls due to the wonk issue, ...and yes, i do have the most recent dewonk app installedand running.
On CM6, that was not a problem, but battery life was discusting.
Another issue that i have never been able to correct, is the touchscreen problems, no rom has ever been reliable regarding that issue.
Is it that my phone is deffective ?
So the top 3 things i am looking for is
No wonkiness
no touch screen issues
and good battery life
So, if any of you guys out there know of a rom/kernell/radio combination that can offer that, i would praise you like android gods!!!
Thanks in advance for your replies..... i'm just sick of going around every week for a new miracle solution......

you might wanna try SuperAOSP from [email protected]
i've been on it since 2 months ago and i'm a happy user indeed

Sorry to burst your bubble, but roms are never "stable" per say. There are always bugs and risk factors.
Plus, this is the wrong thread to be asking the question too I believe...
But to answer the question,
I'm a CM person.

Hell if you find such rom let us know!!
N1

Yes. The touchscreen on the nexus one is defective. Google it. It cannot distinguish which x or y coordinates belong to each finger and it cannot distinguish touch points near each other.

Try the CM7 nightly BUILD #39 from imfloflo and flash wildmonks latest kernel.
The kernel is newer and contains newer drivers. The #39 is the real final version of CM7
i think it cannot be more stable

This is most certainly not development. Thread moved to Q&A, where it belongs.

Cm7 nightly 41 with intersectraven's latest is pretty darn stable

[Q] question about rooting my nexus one

OK.guys I have a stock n1 running 2.3.6 but I am tired of the wifi issue my question is if I root does this fix the issue and also what are the benefits of rooting and which is the best method and rom
Thanks in advance

Can't answer for certainty because we don't know if your problem is software or hardware related.

my wifi keep on droping off when i google it i see its a problem with the n1
hope this helps

I haven't run stock since Froyo came out, but I haven't had any issues with my wifi, so if it is an issue with software, it doesn't seem like it exists in CyanogenMod. But as baseballfanz mentioned, it is too difficult to determine whether your issue is hardware or software. If it is software, it should be fixed. The two most popular custom ROMs are CyanogenMod and MIUI. I know CyanogenMod covers a lot of the additional features on their website, I am not sure about MIUI, but both probably include better perfomance and battery life, along with a ton of extra features.

Never had any WiFi issues myself or heard of anyone else having any with the N1. I suppose you could TRY another rom but I'm not sure if that would work. If you do I would recommend a cyanogenmod simply because theres so many people using that if anyone else has had this issue its probably been reported and solved if it was a software problem. Always worth a hot and if nothing else theres more to do with a rooted phone anyway.
Good luck, hope you'll let us know how you get on.

There are many people reporting Wi-Fi issues on the Nexus One on a stock ROM after the 2.3.6 update. Many threads in this forum, as well as google's support forum...

Root anyway
Too many benefits and too much fun not to--
Full image backups
Better app managemet
Faster Updates
Ability to run Sense roms
Overclocking
etc
etc

ok ok you guys twisted my arm lol i am going to install cm7.1 let you know how this runs

If you are not rooted yet back up phone with an app like MyBackUp Pro and copy sdcard to pc
Include System Wipe as part of wiping phone before flashing new rom
Best Recovery--latest non-beta Amon_Ra
Wiki has good root info--

not worried about apps all free app can download so not going to back up lol

Your Brave
It backs up more than apps--does System/Home Screens/Bookmarks/SMS/MMS/Playlists etc
Def do your sdcard
Good Luck

brave you say lol
its a new phone so i dont have anything i want to keep in it new as in new to me but a used phone

hey guy sorry took long to report i sucessfully rooted my n1 rubbing cm7 are there any good sense roms i could try i really like the sense interface thanks alot

Check in the Nexus One Android Development forum, or look at the Nexus One wiki, which lists more roms as well. I just went to the Development forum myself and did a search for "sense", there's multiple Sense roms in that forum.
Good luck.

I loaded a runnymedemod007 v007 ROM RUNNING GREAT SO FAR

Hey where Is my manners THANK YOU ALL FOR ALL THE ASSISTANCE !!!

[Q] Is there a rom that will stop the random blackscreen battery pull?

I have had this problem since i have gotten the actual phone. I thought a replacement battery would help but it hasn't. This all happens randomly no matter the charge of my battery and I have read it to be an issue. Do i just need to put my phone back to stock and exchange it? Right now I am running a simple deoxed ota rom with root. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,

Ive had significantly less blackscreens on cm7. Some nightlies i never had a black screen and others every now and then. I usually just insert cable to get out of it
Miui is the only rom I haven't had a blackscreen on which makes sense considering their update schedule is very slow and they havent updated the 2x rom for some time.
Sent from my Optimus 2X using XDA App

I also get a blackscreen every few days

Any ways around this? Still experiencing the problem :\ Cm nightly 177 & was doing it on another previous nightly too.
BB 405, if that makes a difference.

I had the issue too.
I rooted my device and removed a whole lotta LG Crapware. Had a considerable improvement. Though the BSODs occurred every once in a while.
After that, I flashed HP kernel RC2..
Haven't had any BSOD since then.
So.. I'd suggest getting back to the stock ROM, root it, remove LG Crapware and flash HP RC4 Kernel!
Hope it solves your BSOD issue as well!

you could also try topogigi's ROM with HP kernel, i don't have any issues with it and i like that it's stock

awh, I don't feel like going back to LG's crapware (even if Topigigi made it good) I like the stock android look and feel.
I think I'll just suck it up and keep the blackscreens if it means I get to keep cm7 I might try topogigi later and see how good it is, but for now my heart lies with cm7.

[Q] Might CyanogenMod damage the Wi-Fi Module?

Hello everybody,
I'm not sure if this is the right section which i'm posting in, but as i couldn't find a more suitable place I'll ask my question here.
2 Weeks ago i acquired a Samsung GT-I9301I Phone, i'm completely new to Android as my Company phone is a BlackBerry. The Phone itself seems really good but the whole Software Bundle (Bloat-Ware) that come with Samsung Devices were pretty annoying. So i started some research on the Internet concerning Custom ROM's and found a Thread here with CyanogenMod 11 suitable for my Device. So i flashed it onto my Phone, and i'm quite impressed of the work @Rox has done.
Yesterday i had a conversation with a Friend of mine in Germany who works for Samsung Mobile, especially the Cellphone Repair Section. I told him what I've done. And he told me that sooner or later my Wi-Fi Module will stop working because the CyanogenMod will Damage/Destroy it. He told me that they receive lots of Devices with this problem and that it is definitely a problem caused by that Mod.
ACTUAL QUESTION:
Has anyone encountered such problems or heard of it before? Would be nice to collect information on this, if it's really caused by the CyanogenMod. And if, then maybe we together can relay the information we gather to the CyanogenMod Team for further discussion and problem solving...
Thx ahead, Steve

Whelp, I've used CM on my old HTC Sensation for years, never encountered any problem with the modules for sure :/
Is your buddy really serious? Because I haven't heard about a device damaged by that

Hi,
indeed he's serious he won't make jokes on that.
Before me posting here and opening this thread I've also done intensive search on the internet, but i couldn't find anything concerning the mentioned problem.
So the question now is: WTH did screwed those devices he's talking about. And if you're saying that you also never heard of something like that and you're using CM yourself for several years, then it brings me to only one answer.
Rookies with no experience are flashing their devices and that maybe because of missing knowledge/understanding something gone wrong during their attempt's to flash the Custom ROM's...?!?

WiFi Modules need to be compiled with kernel.
If those aren't flashed after flashing a mod or custom kernel, WiFi won't work.
If a rookie won't flash kernel modules then it's his mistake.

Hi..
That's maybe really the reason. I'm using CM since 3 day's now and haven't encountered any Wi-Fi problems except a maybe weaker signal strength.
OK 3 day's isn't that long so I'll keep my eyes and ears open, and will follow this "Rumor". As anything happens I'll report it here.
Everyone a Merry Xmas!

I don't believe you'll encounter any problems, it's just important to flash the right files, is all
And no, signal is not weaker, AOSP has different parameters for measuring signal strength, and I believe it's more accurate than manufacturers ROMs (saw this info somewhere on the forum, don't remember where)
And merry Christmas you good XDA user

How can software physically damage hardware? The only way I can think of actually damaging the wifi module is if the phone is dropped, gotten wet, or run so much that heat fries.

I'm thinking the same concerning the Overstress / Overheating otherwise no idea. Working in IT business myself and that's the only reasonable explanation for Hardware damage.
The other question is if it's software related than it's only possible as mentioned before, that the module driver isn't correctly compiled / implemented into the kernel. And therefore the module just isn't working instead of destroyed.
As those devices aren't being repaired by my friend cause of void warranty, it's still an open question if the modules Hardware damaged or just aren't working...
Sent from my GT-I9301I using XDA Free mobile app

Well, unless your friend is completely a idiot (no offense...) software can't do harm to hardware...Overheating may cause real issue but in reality I have owned dozen of devices from old HD2 to new Z3, all run custom ROM but never encounter single hardware error, only some minor button damage....
