Absolution Q&A

Hi, as posted before, I had trouble with the bundled OC Daemon (When 3.2 comes out, I do a complete start from scratch flashing and setup, maybe it will work than), and I am using SetCPU for OC.

I have 2 Questions:

1. Is it normal, that I cannot see the UV menu in SetCPU? It simply ain't there. On the other hand, I can see it on my Samsung Galaxy 3, so I was just curious, if it's device specific and anyone of Y'all would know and tell.

2. Are there any recommended CPU settings and governors / profiles for this ROM? As we know LorDmod allows us to crank up the CPU to 2.0 GHz but, err yea right, I rather won't run my phone on such high freq, something tells me it's too much to take. Any suggestions for the freqs/governors, for onscreen, offscreen, in-call etc.?

1. Absolutions tools ----> UV (I don't see any need for SetCPU to be honest, and on top of that, I think somewhere there is a thread alone for SetCPU)

2. Everything is smooth when you just leave ROM like that. I tried playing with UV n OC some while ago, ended up in random reboots. I have never felt any need for UV or OC'ing my phone. And yes, in my holiday i play high-res games in my mobile n have not noticed any lag.

well my question was aimed at how to lower the freqs, when the screen is off or at night, or during a call. Like how much lower I can set the freqs in such phone state, to be able to wake up from deep sleep, I am out for MORE battery life. but nevermind, I guess I'll have to find out on my own..

I started to try it like this:

That is the setup I am using and it is working well for me. Great battery life for all that I do on my phone.

Yeah, it's probably overkill.

it's smooth and fast at 1.2 anyway.

haha, I always say I don't see the point in OCing, but obviously everytime I flash a new release, I try it out but to no avail.

icon change

i hope i am in the right place as i am new to all this.

i am trying to change the icons that come with the rom to the ones i want.

i have pulled out the apk for messaging and found the png that displays when i go to it and replaced it with mine....

i used the same size image and renamed mine to match the original. i then put it back in the original zip and was wandering if i re-flashed the zip if it would work or do i need to sign it and make it a some kind of self installing file to overwrite the original one.

my attempt here is to change the icons to a Harley Davidson kind of theme.

Thanks.......

Question about FFC

Ok, so I am just trying this ROM out and it is blowing my mind...literally...my brains are all over the screen as i type, so thanks!

One problem I am experiencing is with ffc and gtalk. Whenever it attempts to video chat gtalk fails and restarts anythoughts?

I have tried reset, clear data, everything short of reinstall...

thanks in advance!

The ffc hack works on google hangouts, but not on google talk for our devices. We haven't figured out that one yet...

Mic problem

I installed Absolution 3.1 over the weekend and I find that after my phone has been on for a while, (I have not timed it) the voice commands stop working... For instance, if I try to use google search or to send a text by voice instead of typing, I get a red line across the mic and will not let me use the feature. Rebooting my phone solves the problem... Other than that, I really like the rom!

I switched to this rom from CoreDroid rom. One thing I could do with CoreDroid was pull up the phone, start typing the letters of the person I wanted to call and would pull up any contact that had those letters. It is a very quick way for me to make phone calls. Is there a way to do this with this Absolution?

Or you could just hit the search button on your home screen and start typing the first few letters of a contact

I have a problem: it seems my OTA download doesn't work.
In the attachment is what I get when I click on that download link.

Why is this happening and what does it mean? How can I update the rom in another way?

Thank you for this rom anyway, it's fantastic!

Just download that APK and using a file explorer (I use root explorer) navigate to your sdcard. This APK should be there, click it and install it. Go to absolution tools and update absolution tools and that should give you the OTA screen in the absolution tools. Absolution OTA and the tools were once two different apps, but the great devs decided that they could just make it all in house so when you do install the APK, you will probably get a OTA app (if you're using 3.1) as a separate app in your app drawer. If you upgrade to 3.2, this no longer occurs.

Thank you, I did everything you wrote but I still get the same thing. Anyway, I'm currently on 3.0 version if it's important...
