@hansip

what effect does "ro.media.enc.jpeg.quality=100" have on the pictures?

does it only raise the file size or it also raises the quality of the images?

Honestly I don't notice any improvement. The file size is still about the same. :-/ but yeah it doesn't hurt to add one line. Might be useful in other cases.

quick panel settings inconsistency

Hi all,

anybody noticed when you enable/disable "data" from quickpanel settings, that sometimes the status color of the button is out of sync with data settings ?

example: data = on

click on (green) data button

result: data button stays green (enabled), but in reality data is disabled (you can easily check in notification)

Is it only me , or can also other people reproduce this ?

It's no big deal, but sometimes confusing ;-)

Yeah sometimes it can go like that. I just close the status bar and/or rotate the device with some app, and it will be correct again. Don't know if there's any fix can be done.

Added new KAK step by step

what does KAK actually do?

what does KAK actually do?

it is acronym for Kick Ass Kernelizer by zeppelinrox. It is like a supplement for a Supercharger. IMO, it quite gives you some more responsiveness.

how to know if KAK is working i verify it and the script said nope ! its chewing bubblegum is that working now or not help pls tnx

Sorry i forgot to mention about running it at boot. There should be a result script placed in init.d if you are using init.d mod from iridaki. If you execute KAK without init.d mod, you should assign with Script Manager to execute /data/98KickAssKernel.sh at boot. Thanks for the info.

how about after apply the super charger the script said that my launcher is bullet proof is that ok?

Well yes certainly, that's what you really want after running SuperCharger.

 

[fred07123]

is that the same with hard to kill launcher?

battery drain ?

I've done most of the mod proposed in here, but is it me (that is currently playing alot with the beast) or I feel the battery is drained substantially more than before (stock ROM/all) ?

The problem is that I didn't installed a battery stat app before the modding so I don't have real element of comparison.. Any thought abour that ?

try to charge it before sleeping, and leave it overnight without data connection. it should be loosing around 2-3% within 6 hours. please try to use Battery Monitor Widget to monitor the battery graph. If the drain is worse than that please report.

Hello my good ppl, i am just another noob, who wants to lvl up. However i have a problem thats torturing me ....i cant upgrade to 0.62, when i try that with PC companion after the screen where i need to turn off the phone and reconnect it, nothing happens and all freezes (both PC and phone) , i press the vol - , plug USB back in the phone but it just stays like that. I rooted the phone a month ago using simple procedure with flashtool described here on XDA , dident unlock the bootloader (at least i think i dident) , instaled busybox , but not CRM (wonder how to check all that?) .
Plz , plz, can someone find time to solve my problem, greatly appriciated.

Tnx in advance.

P.C I somehow manged to install Superuser app from the market and placed it with root, so after i reseted phone to factory condition it stayed , hope its not a problem, and if it is is there any easy step to wipe it?.

Maybe you can try aire's Repack ROM? it's based on .62 FW too AFAIK.

 

[Ljut123]

Well , i downloaded Aire`s ROM, tried to flash it, exactly the same thing happens, when i am requaired to put phone in flashmode, unplugg cable plug it back in, nothing changes animation screen stays on like nothing happened. Instruction for flashing rom says its for unlock bootloader, and i dident unlocked mine (at least i dident follow any procedure on doing so, just easy flash for root), I am not looking for some custom ROM atm , until i learn a bit more , i would just like to do the regular software upgrade.

pretty unhappy

P.S How do i check whether my bootloader is locked or not?
