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

[moebravo]

Sorry grabbed the wrong start up file. I needed the RHOD500 going to try it again right now. Wish me luck!

Just a quick status on my android usage: I switched back to overclocking to 710mhz this morning and it's running great. What I did was backup everything on my SD card, format it and then copied everything back, including my existing data.img. Also another thing I did was not using any taskiller apps; I just let android do its own house cleaning. So far so good. I was getting SODs randomly recently and thought maybe it was due to using my SD card for a long time without formatting... I hope this is the case. I haven't been back to winmo for the last 2 weeks. I pretty much been using all kinds of apps.

Sent from my FRX05-ized TP2

UPDATE: Still running fine after 24 hours. Tough to not use a taskiller; if free memory falls below 20mb, it's become very sluggish. A lot of apps that require background data just eat up memory; the more apps of this type I install, the more memory they eat up even if I don't launch them. I eventually had to kill some of them to make my TP2 more usable.

delete data.img so it will create a new one
formatted SD card
Kernel 1258? forget the exact number

maybe i'm forced to stick with winmo... o the horror

Hrm. I guess try a newer kernel, don't think that'll have any effect on it.

So you copy the bundle, and on the first boot you get that error when trying settings?

Might be good to note, on a first boot I let the system sit and collect itself... there's a lot going on at first boot, especially right at the beginning. Some people reboot and don't even deal with the "first boot slowness", but I find if you let it sit for 5-10mins, it's just fine. Usually less even, if you just let the phone sit and go into deep sleep by itself, no problems (for me, at least ).

SoD's are almost certainly RIL related. I've been told that if you disable data, they disappear. Some have been able to consistently recreate the SoD condition, basically by being in a bad service area.

I'm usually in the same places (good service areas) and I haven't had a true SoD in months. Went on vaca this last week, and I actually had one, driving thru a canyon. So there seems to be some truth to this - I didn't try disabling data. If you have a spot that seems to cause a lot of SoD's, try that out. Disabling data is no fun, but if you know there's a place the phone likes to die in try it out!

I'm seriously hoping to talk to WisTilt2 soon. He said his radio guy would have a RIL to test with sometime this week...

@ arrrr or stinebd

Important question.

Data.img

When booting android for the first time. Can the data.img be created, in another location in the SD card?.

FROYO X RED, BLAZN 2.2.2, GINGERBREAD 2,3,2, SENSE FROYO 2.2/SPRINT TOUCH PRO 2/RHOD400

It can, but you have to modify init in rootfs. It's quite simple to change and "compile". Just change this if statement: init - eclair-rootfs in XDANDROID Eclair - Gitorious

Indeed. I'd imagine this method you could also place the data.img in a dedicated partition, instead of being loop mounted.

Thank you very much. Really excited about this test that I'm doing.

Thanks

I'm trying this FX05, found that it has no support of IPv6, so I can't use the google goggle.

modprobe ipv6

Either run that in the terminal, or add it to your froyo.user.conf in the 'CustomCommands' section.

Please search before you post. However, you reminded me this should probably be in the FAQ.

I tried to OC to 710MHz these two days, after 728MHz didn't work out for me. But I do encounter very sluggish moments frequently, I don't remember if that's also happening if I don't OC at all. But many times, the phone just seems dead.
