I'm just wondering if there is a consensus amongst the devs, should those of us that installed the leak wait on installing the final 2.1 OTA?
Or is there a lot of work done with the leaked 2.1 at this point?
I upgraded that day and have only regretted it a little since root...I'm very excited that there seems to be a final 2.1 rom but don't want to further hurt my chances of rooting this thing (not a vzw cust/no insurance so...I'm glad I like this phone haha!)
Input appreciated from other users/devs!
Until I get some feedback I'm going to wait and see on this one...
I've been using the Leak2 version for a couple hours now, and I've gotta say it's leaps and bounds superior to Leak1. There are probably no fewer leads in Leak2 than Leak1 (kernel / bootloader version are the same), so my vote is: go for it, and don't look back. Leak1 was kind of a pile.
I dint know if I should just because I am worried about dev getting root on the first leak
Bit the Bullet
I bit the bullet. I might be a glutton for punishment, but I heard a lot of good things and couldn't help it!
I will say that I haven't seen a speed boost at all. Transitions actually seem a little bit slower to me. Anybody else see this?
Anyway, I'll keep with it. If it bugs me I'll try the good old format-sd-and-reinstall method, I hear that helps
Here's hoping we get that root!
help
ok, so I can't update ... I follow all the steps hold end and volume down or hold end and call. get to the hboot and nothing. Will not read it. Do I need to do something to the zip? help

I was noticing the transition speed as well. It does seem to be slower.

So what's leak2 now? I havent been on the forums in a while
So i have EvilEris on my phone atm and it works great i have it OCed at 768 but i see some people have their phones over clocked at higher speeds. Is there something im missing because whenever i try to put it higher my phone just restarts. If theres anything i have to do please point me in that direction. I know i run the risk of it overheating but i like to push the boundaries a little bit, Thanks in advance
The thing with overclocking is that not all phones are created equal. Not every processor can handle running at 806 or so and then some can all day without breaking a sweat. This goes with pretty much most electronic things. With that being said, there are always a couple of things to play with to try and max it out. Do you have JIT enabled? I understand that can make a difference on some phones as it is not entirely stable with everything. Also, personally, I could not OC to 806 till I started running Froyo roms. I have tried 4 different ones (and have stayed with CELB 1.4) all while hitting 806 without it even heating up as much as when I ran 768 on 2.1 roms. Really though, just because your phone is turned up as much as possible, doesn't mean it will automatically be faster. Some report no differences between, say, 710 and 768 on their phones. So, just like when you drink too much (me, last night lol) and your liver says no more and you hurl everywhere, your phone turns off saying no more when you push it too hard. Hope this makes sense somewhat...lol
The reason overclocking exists is because chips are shipped at a lower level when they actually can functiona t a higher level. Processing has to do with the wafers on the chip and there's no way to garauntee the exact number you'll get per chip so they just find the minimum number and ship all of the chips under that minimum number. This means some lucky people get chips capable of going way higher and some people get chips that can't handle that speed.
Im not familiar with JIT, not sure what it is. Would that possibly do anything to maybe get my processor running higher? Will it work on EvilEris? Yeah i know theres really no difference in the speeds that much but i just like to push it a little higher for fun lol, i just like to have my gadgets running at their best possible specs
I'm not sure if it'll run on Evil Eris but you can look for a thread by jcase called Universal JIT update and try it out. It isn't very stable though, especially on Sense ROMs. However if you change your Dalvik Heap to 24m I've heard it helps. It doesn't really speed up your processor, just the way your phone handles things. I've noticed a difference with it enabled. As for what it is well: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Just-in-time_compilation
I used Universal JIT with my Evil Eris. Don't bother, it "speeds things up" in some sense but it's really not worth it. Mflops nearly double but that literally means nothing other than your mflops are doubled.
Hmm, it looks interesting. Im going to look into it a little more and see if its worth it or not. Ill probly use it for future roms like Froyos when they get working flash(Only reason im staying with 2.1 roms atm). Thanks for the info on it
just for reference, my phone will lock up at any settings over 710. Droid Kevlar's phone is OC'd at 806!
my phone kicks all sorts of ass at 710 so I am happy. I think we all get obsessed and when this phone takes over your life (like it did mine) you start to seek out better and better performance when its already good enough as is (assuming you're rooted)

Exactly, Im happy that i have it set to 768 because i dont have to deal with that tiny lag that always annoyed me before i rooted my phone. Once i got setcpu i saw the difference and wanted to try to push a little more. I bought setcpu instead of getting it for free because i wanted to give back in a sort of way. But im happy with it, i have no problems with anything as long as i have a good rom on it

i suffer from the grass is always greener syndrome, which in this case means + the next rom is always faster syndrome.
I should be happy with my rooted phone and I am. But still I read the forum and think wonder what Kaos Froyo is like?
Yeah I get that too lol I tried almost every Rom except the ones that I didn't like the themes

Froyo comes with JIT, and a different JIT that's much better.

Really...it seems there a lot more I have to learn about this before I do anything because now I might start using kaos froyo. Also I heard/read google was making froyo faster because of flash so maybe the UI is faster also?
Sent from my Eris using XDA App
Froyo is basically a 2.1 update, so imagine 2.1 but reworked to be faster. They basically streamlined 2.1 completely and made it use a compiler to speed things up. I won't get into how compilers work but basically they can/will slow everything down unless things are streamlined for them. That's why on 2.1 JIT can be a nuisance but sometimes quite nice, depending on when/ what it is being used for. On 2.2 everything is pretty much made for JIT so it's all quite a lot smoother/ faster.
I personally use tazz Cyanogenmod 6. I've tried every froyo ROM at least once (there aren't too many lol) but this is by farrrrr my favorite.
Hmm well when I get sober ill have to try this jit out but I'm way too wasted to flash a rom atm, I'm lucky I have auto correct on my phone or it'd be all gibberish

Can someone tell me where all the hype is about gingerbread besides having a tbolt n showing people that you have sw version 2.3? I just don't get it. Yeah sure it looks cool, but as we all know other Roms like BAMF (Sense or not) is just way sicker/snappier and more reliable. Sure all these GB Roms are in their early stages, but like I said, their more basic and the only true benefit I've been reading that people seem to be really concerned about is Netflix working. Obviously everyone has an opinion (like I'm expressing mine) just curious why GB has soooo much hype. Personally, with running BAMF 1.2 with Adryns 4.4.7 amongst other performance tweeks (I/O scheduler sertings, CPU settings without SetCpu etc...) My tbolt couldn't be more sick. So freaking snappy, great battery life, look n feel is so nasty that I just don't get the GB Hype... If netflix gets on this bad boy, I'd be more than set. Like I said. All personal opinion, but some good pointers/insight might help me understand. Until then, I'm more than content with my ridiculous fast more than stable Tbolt. Even if it doesn't "say 2.3.*..."

I admire your will power, for me I guess it was just wanting to try the newest thing and Sense 2.1. However i flashed the gingeritis III rom and it soft bricked my phone, would go to boot screen and at the end it would say Enjoy your HTC Thunderbolt and never get past that. I'm not saying there is anything wrong with the ROM because according to the thread several people have this working just fine on their phone. I did follow the instructions to the letter but it didn't work, luckily I was able to restore my latest backup back to Das Bamf 1.6.3 remix.......WHEW!
I had a few Gingerbread ROMs on my OG Droid and I hated them. The ROMs were well developed and mature by the time I replaced the phone, but 2.3 in general was just super buggy and annoying. Stability, speed and battery life were a mess compared to the 2.2 ROMs on that phone. I don't know how much different it is on the T-Bolt as I haven't rooted mine yet, but from my experience, Gingerbread is stale right now. Too many problems to be worth the relatively minor upgrades.
You can't judge GB based on the roms made from this leak. The people using it now are either trying to help devs, curious, or just interested in the newest thing. Once GB got figured out for my D1 it drastically improved performance and battery life, as well as offered new features.
This leak is an alpha type of product, and there will be releases that are much more finely tuned and smooth. GB has many "unseen" improvements like JIT, as well as cosmetic and functional changes. Once some good stable releases of GB come out, it will be much more appealing. I do agree about the current Froyo roms being VERY good though. The BAMF roms and lean kernel have this thing working at near perfection...so I will be waiting for the "clean" GB roms to come out for my next daily driver.

I gotta say, aftermarket accessories may be where we draw the line on knowledge lol. I read that link, it said "for devices compatible with 5v/2000mA" so, I guess I don't know for sure. But, a 5 dollar USB charger will almost surely not hose down this device, it can transmit streaming HD thru that same port, so it's probably fine.

Are you on stock, stock w/kernel, custom ROM? Also, I assume you are constantly in the same roam area, and now it doesn't work? Are you sure it's just your phone? I guess since s-off is done throught the radio it is possible that s-off did it, but I doubt it. And what have you already tried to do for a fix?
s-off; Root; OTA Updates
I've been reading with great interest all of the threads about s-off, rooting for the EVO 3D. I have never rooted a phone before (although I did jailbreak a friends iphone a couple of years ago). Here's my question:
Is it possible to get s-off, root, recovery - keep the stock ROM and still take OTA updates?
The reason I ask is that there are still a few things that I expect the next OTA update will fix such as the icons going default for any app stored on the SD card after reboot.
For now, I would like to be able to use apps that require root but still be able to use the OTA until such time as I decide to flash a custom ROM.
Thanks in advance.

Yes. s-off exploits the radio so OTA updates wont affect it.
Question regarding OC
I don't consider myself a n00b, but I am confused with the overclocking on this phone. I am coming from an EVO 4g, and did plenty of overclocking on it. What I noticed with the original EVO was that the performance benchmarks increased when it was overclocked. Once it reached a certain clock speed, then it would crash if it was too high. I keep seeing people say that benchmarks don't matter. I understand where they are coming from, but this is different.
Stock kernel with Viper ROM, my 3d scores in the 2000's consistently with Quadrant. If I overclock it to 1.5, it significantly drops. It's even worse when overclocked to 1.7 (the score is around 700). The phone does not crash though. People keep saying that this doesn't matter, but I have to disagree. As I am running Quadrant, I can visibly see the test animations are choppy and the FPS are much slower for each given test. Also, the database writes are taking longer. This would explain such a poor Quadrant score.
So... my questions are:
Is Quadrant just not optimized for a dual core processor? Why would it run so smooth stock, but then get all choppy when OC'd?
Maybe there is something off with the OC part of the kernels? I've tried both Silverneedle and RCMIX. Both give me the same results.
I've tried SetCPU with poor results. Then I uninstalled it and just used Viper's built in Daemon. Same poor results.
Do I have an inferior processor that can't be OC'd to even 1.5? My understanding of this chip is that it is actually a 1.5ghz chip that is being underclocked by HTC from the factory.
Sorry for being lengthy, but I've read through so many posts, and I'm tired of reading that "benchmarks don't mean sh*t".

I would avoid the OTAs if you can, because they will take away root, and I am sure we will get the GOOD parts of each OTA in here as a flashable zip. OTAs are notorious for patching root, so be weary, and wait to flash them until you read about them here first.

Vipers Daemon is the reason you were getting great scores but once you flashed a kernel the daemon will no longer run even if you flash back to stock kernel, you will have to re-flash viperRom to get the daemon to run again until viper releases the daemon alone as a flashable file.

IMO quad is NOT dual-core friendly, please use CF bench (made by chainfire on xda), I get sweet scores with that one. Using netarchy at 1.7 stock ROM.
You *might* have a chip that should stay at 1.2, who knows...
quads don't mean sh1t lol.

I read from the devs that flashing OTA are safe since the exploit is via the radio. Think your wrong on this one, but its never a bad idea to be safe and check here before you accept an OTA.

Alright let me explain...
First you need to keep in mind that the kernels are in their beta stages. I had a quadrant score an 800, but my phone operates fine and plays games fine. Some of these kernels have the multiplier intervals wrong. I can get into that if you need me to, but anyways, on forth. There is a possibility that the CPUs on the EVO are actually lower binned chips. Now why do I say this? Because it has come to mind that overclocks vary, but like I said... The kernels are in their beta stages. Ill get in depth if you need me to about the processors and the bins.
Appreciate my help? Thank me

OK heres a dopey question from a dopey chef.
Right now I have twrp recovery and its cool but I'm stuck in old ways. Can I download Rom manager and flash cwm over twrp? And if it does work, there won't be any issues? I know everyone.... twrp smokes cwm but that's what I'm used to. Then again.... if all the devs go with twrp then I should stay with twrp right? And blah blah blah? Lol

No problem with flashing CWM within Rom Manager, just make sure you have quick boot disabled under your options (phone options that is) or when you boot the recover (since quick boot doesnt shut the phone all the way down) you will still see TWRP... TWRP owns though, just with the compress nandroid alone.

We're sorta both right. I would just hate to see someone trust an OTA, like the one when they make the bootloader, which could lockdown the whole phone, no root, who knows. It's safer to wait, like we both said
I read a reply in a thread which explained that the current ICS leak runs the CPU full speed, instead of scaling it, whenever the screen is on. This was the member's explanation for why some people notice their phones running hotter than on GB.
Is this true? And to the extent that it is true, is it true of the preceding leaks as well? I guess what I'm wondering is whether this is something that HTC might be hoping to resolve before going live with an OTA.

Your guess is as good as mine and I too read that same reply. I've been trying to figure this out since the leak came out. Some people aren't having any problems and some people are having all sorts of problems. I haven't been in the Rezound thread long but I'm not new to flashing and I've been going back on forth on doing the leak or waiting for either the source for kernel help or the official ota. I was thinking maybe it was "noob" mistakes but from alot of the posts it seems that experienced flashers are having problems as well. Scott has a kernel thread in the Dev section if you wish to follow that, if you aren't already. I know that all phones are created equal and there are some built better than others. So far I've been pretty fortunate in my phones. I've never had to take a phone in for repair that I didn't eff up myself.... Obviously, I'd like to think by the time we get the official ota all things will be resolved but you never know. When I had my Evo 3D it took the latest ota to solve alot of battery issues that we had. I know I don't answer your question but I too have similar ones myself. Be well.
The current leak/kernel that is having problems is part of a release candidate, we can only hope HTC resolves it before the update is finalized. I wouldn't be surprised if another leak/release candidate shows up in the near future, each one has fixed more issues found in the earlier leaks.
jjwalter--
If I was in your shoes I would not take the leak. My phone is worse than bricked.
I can put the .11 GB kernel back on the phone with my old software, but the WIFI doesn't seem to work with the ICS radio firmware, and the thing's running hotter than ever.
I had no heat or battery life issues on the current GB -- all my problems began when I flashed the .22 leak. And as long as I'm stuck with these radios I don't think they'll get better. Your mileage may vary, but if it was up to me I wouldn't get in that car again.

Thanks for the heads up. From past flashing experience I have never seen a leak with a radio and firmware update. It's usually just a rom. With a leak this close I'm sure the ota isn't too far off and I'll just keep hanging around and root and flash once that drops. Thanks again.
I know if I were HTC/Verizon/ATT/Motorola... I'd be leaking any new builds right here on XDA. You couldn't find a better group of knowledgeable testers anywhere. In my mind, these leaks are on purpose, and I'd also guess there will be future releases that fix the issues the group here has found.
im running the latest leaked version and i have no heat problems whatsoever. i play hd games, on youtube for hours, etc...hottest its gotten was 120 degrees thats it. im running stock. as far as im concerned GB is dead to me
My phone doesn't get hot playing games on the leak, but you put that mofo to stream some music and it about burns through my pants in class, and then half my extended battery is gone. It is definately due to the scaling issue
Yea I see a lot of people saying they have heat and reboot issue but they are the same people asking newb questions if ya wipe everything, check the md5, flash the ruu, and do it right you will not have problems 99% of the time. Don't be afraid to update just because a couple user experience problems its not like some guy in his mom's basement made this leak its a leak from google got out god knows how but still built with their algorithm, software, and knowledgeable engineers. I would update sense 3.6 is way better than 3.5 and ics has a lot more backup options and a better user experience. I recommend you do just make sure to do a backup before you do so you can revert back if need be.

What are the across the board issues with ics at the moment on the rezound? I'm thinking about coming from the bionic/thunderbolt, no Ril and hardware acceleration, etc.

Yep, I'm with ^ Everything is running top notch for me as well.
What are the bluetooth issues mentioned in the ics rom threads? I saw it said there was one known issue, but didn't specify.
