[BUILD] **Complete Froyo Bundle!!** FRX06 - "Stable" - Minor Fixes

[oisact]

I ran FRX04 for a couple weeks, and at most I had a full restart (back to WM) once a day. Seemed to be one a day fairly consistent. I dropped in the FRX05 system.ext2 and have had more resets. Today I've had 4-5 so far, so I'm going to drop back down to FRX04 to see if that is still stable. The resets are totally random - I'll look over and the phone will be resetting, or I'll be using it and it will spontaneously reset. I have a hunch it has to do with wireless connectivity. It seems to act up more when I'm in spotty coverage areas.

I did not upgrade kernels from FRX04. Could that be part of my stability issue with the FRX05 system.ext2?

So that explains why those with old Airaves that only do 2g (1x) data were constantly getting SoD's. If you disable data completely, I've heard the SoD issue is gone. The RIL is being rewritten as we speak, hoping to have a test on that soon!

no offense whatsoever! i'm still new to this so i just wanted to share my observation, but it's good to know what the true culprit is and that there's hopefully a fix coming soon. great job on all of this by the way, talk about breathing new life into old hardware, eh? nothing can beat the keyboard on the TP2, which is the only reason i haven't ponied up for a used incredible, since i'm stuck on my contract still. =)

I don't see a way to do this either, perhaps if you use k9mail? I think that requires that you use IMAP tho.

Seems there isn't a solution. Found a bug (well, 'issue') googling this problem straight away...

Exchange and Push are not the same thing.

Looks like I'm staying with wm6 for a while then.

Been using FRX05 for 2-3 days now and it has been working amazing! It is working much better than FRX04 for me. I did start with an absolute clean bare bones install and it has been relatively problem free and great battery life. I have been using the latest wistilt2 test kernel.

I have been using what Tiad8 put together on 1/12 the original which had been the most stable/best performance for me previously. I do enjoy the higher resolution icons in FRX05 and native camera app.

Thanks for all the hard work developers and thank you arrrghhh for maintaining the thread.

Edit: one thing I did notice: The camera appears to be pretty dim, i.e. not letting enough light in. Is there a setting to control aperture that I am missing? or is this a bug? It could just be my TP2; I havent used the camera in a long time so I can't remember how it was.

Edit 2: When writing this I just had a random reboot to WM! Irony! First one though.

I put in oc to 729800 and the led won't turn to green. then I backed a notch, got the green light, need to test. at 729800 it is faster, noticeable.

You should upgrade everything - kernel, rootfs and system image. Hence the reason I make bundles, so people can just grab those .

Uhm... Exchange and push are basically the same thing. How are they not? Exchange is just a type of email that uses push instead of pull... Do you understand what I mean by push instead of pull...?

I don't really want to get in an argument over this, I'd prefer to keep it on-topic. There doesn't seem to be a solution to your problem, as others with native Android devices have pointed out in the link I posted. Hopefully Google or some 3rd party app will fill the gap soon, but it's certainly not an issue with our hacked version of Android that we run.

I have found that when pushing the OCing you need to reboot at least 1-2 times, then seems to get stable.

Falling back to the FRX04 system.ext2 hasn't helped. It has reset 3 or 4 times since. I just plugged it into the charger and it promptly reset. It was very stable before, so I'm not sure if something is corrupted or what.

Please, update everything when going to FRX05. This is the reason for the bundle... Basically everything that is upgradable needs to be upgraded, except for the initrd .

Also, might be good to try a new data.img as well.

Also if you haven't reformatted recently or are constantly copying and deleting files off the sd card (like me) give it a format and start fresh.
