[Q] Screen glitches after standby using 'Overcome 8.9 Series v2.3.1' ROM - Galaxy Tab 8.9 General

Hi,
Very recently i bought a Galaxy tab 8.9 wifi only (P7310), and decided to flash the 'Overcome 8.9 Series v2.3.1' ROM by alterbridge86.
Obtaining root en flashing CWM went very smooth. After full wipe + dalvik wipe I flashed the overcome rom. Still everything was fine and the rom felt very smooth. However, when I woke the tab from standby the first time, my screen was glitching so bad I had to re-boot the tab. After a reboot everything was fine again, at least until i tried to wake it up again. The same glitching occurred..
The strange thing is, during the glitching I could still open apps and everything, so it doesn't look like sleep of death issues i had with custom roms on my Hannspad.
I already tried to flash the rom again and again but every time the same issues. Someone suggested to increase the min. frequency of the cpu to 312Mhz, but this also didn't do the trick..
Right now i'm running the Galaxiansoup ICS rom without any issues, but i would really like to use the camera (for video skype) which doesn't work right now with ICS.
Does this problem sound familiar to anyone? I already searched the dev topic, but couldn't find a solution. Hope you guys can help me out!! Thnx

I added a short video to show what I mean with the glitches, hope you guys can help me out here!

I dont have any issues when use it..p7300
Try to download the file again.. Maybe a bad download make your file corrupt.

Already tried to re download (checksum verified), but unfortunately still the same issue...

Hi Ruurd V.
What Kernel do you use ?
Is it this one ?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1344330
And did you check step
4. Install SetCPU and use to set governor to "interactive" and desired OC frequency (recommend 1.4 to start). The default governor has been set to On Demand on purpose even though it is not the recommended governor to use in SetCPU. Setting the recommended interactive governor will help SetCPU trigger the instructions to sysfs causing it to take hold. Sometimes it is finicky and a reboot can help once you have the interactive governor set with your desired frequency.

Until now I used the kernel that came with the rom. I was under the impression that the rom included the latest kernel.
I tried the kernel from the thread you posted, however the v2d version didn't work for me (no lock screen, no play store acces, home button did not work).
I just flashed the v2c version and that one works fine so far! Haven't tried messing with the cpu though, but for now I will continue using this one! Thanks for the help!

I too had some screen issues with that ROM's kernel until I installed motley's v2d kernel, so yeah, it's the default kernel.

[Q] Awaking from sleep mode takes awhile. Normal?

I didn't know how else to title this thread, so I'm hoping this makes sense.
Awhile ago I flashed the CM6 ROM to my Hero. I haven't added much to it, nor adjusted any of the settings. However, when my phone is not plugged in and getting charged, when I hit the End Call or Menu button to bring it from sleep mode, it takes it almost 2 seconds before the lockscreen appears.
I know that a stock Hero will awake from sleep mode almost instantly. And, when I had a previous 1.5 ROM flashed, it took the phone about maybe 1.2 seconds to awake. Is this normal or is there something that I'm missing that is causing this lag? I haven't really installed any misc apps, and I only removed some "bloatware" from the phone (safely, and ones that don't cause FCs).
Any help or suggestions is appreciated.
I know that overclocking a rom adds lag to waking up the lock screen. Did you flash a overclocked kernel or have you had this issue since flashing this rom?
I believe, when I flashed this new ROM, I reverted back to a normal clocking speed. I used to have an OC kernel of 710, but could've sworn I've gotten it back to stock.
Is there a way to get it back to stock speed, if I didn't revert it back, tho?
Bump.
Is there a way to revert the kernel back to stock?
Option
1. If you have OC kernel install, either use setCPU or Overclock widget to set your min and max.
2. If you running ASOP rom, I'm not sure ASOP ROM comes with stock Kernel or OC Kernel. If it come with stock you may just flash the ROM again w/o wiping data, might have to wipe dalvik cache and it should revert back to stock kernel. If it comes with OC kernel, then option 1 would be best.
my .2 cent hope it helps.
Unfortunately, OverClock Widget didn't do anything to fix the problem. :/ And, if it can't fix it, I don't think that paying for SetCPU will fix it either.
Is there a way I can download the stock kernel?
You cab download setcpu for free here on xda or from their website
I forgot what file it is that changes the CPU speed, but I would look into modifying that file. I also have this problem with cm6 8/17 nightly, but did not have the problem with the early test releases

Thanks a lot, I'm giving it a shot now. I do have a question, tho: when I ran SetCPU, it said that root access was not detected. Is there a trick I have to do with the phone to have SetCPU recognize the phone? I have done some searching, but haven't found much. I tried checking on SuperUser, but it doesn't list SetCPU in it. Plus, when I tap on "Log", it crashes.
Is my phone messed up or something?

Overclock kernal

Hello again, going on my 4th new thread tonight (please no comments, Let's just say im starting to like phones ) Well anyways I wanted to max out my phone with an overclock kernal but I would rather find one that's compatible rather than brick my new phone. Could anyone suggest one? I tried searching the forums for a compatible kernal with no luck. Thanks

Glitterballs will work with that. You will want to download voltage app. I think it is in the op
Where exactly is it? I'm pretty much a noob and the only files i've downloaded and installed are .zips, so if you could explain that would be awesome.

I got until the recovery menu when I couldn't find the advanced ULK thing all I could find is Advanced and i couldn't find lagfix. I pressed something like fix permissions and then it fixed permissions. I rebooted into a screen that had Galaxy S I9000 with samsung at the bottom. Then a robotic lady voice said something long that i didnt catch and then it rebooted into that screen again and this time i listened and it said restore operation and rebooted so i took out the battery and it just keeps doing that. Please help!!!!!
Let it do it. Let it load. Voodoo is enabling. I was wrong about the lag fix on the kernel. Do not pull the battery again
It takes a couple of minutes. Man, I am sorry I have been using a different kernel and got crossed on what lag fix it has. I hope it loads, please in future do not panic and pull battery so quickly
Alright I'm sorry i just freaked when I couldn't even get into recovery mode. I let it sit but my dad is a senior member of the site and he tells me these stories of how people have new phones and they brick them out of the box, so when I heard that weird voice i flipped. How long does it usually take?
Couple of minutes. No more then ten
Ok It's been a long time and it's still just sitting there saying restore operation. At this point I don't care about the kernal, what can I do to get my phone back to normal or even factory reset???
Wait. Do you have allot of apps? It is converting all your data
As long as it is talking we are still moving along
Respond to my pm
No I just got this for christmas. I have ytt3r's version of Darky's ROM and as i was looking over it, I noticed all these little things like texts and there was ALOT of them.

[Q] Samsung Galaxy S Plus Lagging Problem

Hi Everyone,
I have been using Samsung Galaxy S Plus for a few months now and have noticed that my phone lags after a few days of use. I have quite a few applications installed on my phone and figured that maybe this might be the cause of my problem. I have used apps like "FMR Memory", AutoKiller Memory, Speed Booster to kill running processes which might be causing the lag but without any great improvement. I have even installed CPU Master and set the min CPU speed as 768 MHz but that didn't rectify the issue either. I have used Android Assistant to keep unwanted apps on starting at boot as well but without much benefit.
My phone is rooted, and im using the stock rom, namely XXKPE (Kernel version 2.6.35.7-perf [email protected]#1), firmware version 2.3.4.
The best solution i have seen so far is to reboot the phone. But this is just a temporary solution because after a day or two the phone starts lagging again. I almost always have a problem when i make a lot of calls on my phone.
Any help or tips which might help me resolve this issue would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Saf
Try to install latest XXKQE. Should help.
Also clear cache, but I don't know if that option is present in stock Android recovery.
Hi przemcio510,
Thanks for the reply. I have used 1click cache cleaner as well but didn't notice much difference.
I will check out the ROM you mentioned but i would really prefer not to flash my device.
I want to know the reason which causes my phones to lag and how to identify and stop it.
Saf
You may having lots of apps on ur phone. To solve this without flashing, buy a external sd and transfer the apps from internel to external. Check out App 2 sd after getting the external sd. Other way is to flash a kernel. Flashing a kernel will increase performance by overclock thus you will experience zero lag. After flashing a kernel you will be able to overclock. Increase the MAX VALUE, not the MIN VALUE. You can't overclock a stock kernel.

[Q] CM7 CPU DVFS Issues

I'm currently having some frequency issues in ROMs based on CM7 such as official nightly, boype's custom CM7, CiCi ROM and the official Mokee OS release from mfunz.
On all these ROMs, with interchangeable governors, apps (antutu cpu master and setCPU), dynamic voltage/frequency scaling doesn't occur. The frequency of the CPU is stuck at 1GHz, the back of the phone starts to get REALLY hot and the battery fails to last 6hrs even when the screen is off. I'm unable to find out what happens during screen off because i get this error: CPU Spy States Error
There have been times on first boot where, under CPU settings, I can see the voltage being scaled between 300MHz and 1GHz but this has only happened twice out of approx. 15 fresh flashes.
I have tried many things in order to fix it.
> Wipe data/factory reset, wipe dalvik, wipe cache, wipe system then flash.
> As above, then reboot into recovery and only wipe dalvik and cache.
> As the first one, then flash over the already flashed ROM.
> Flash a different kernel (i have tried Zeus kernel but not boype because this same issue happened on boype ROM)
So, i was wondering if any of the developers out there could spare a minute and help a brother out. Mokee OS is soooooo smexy i just wanna USE IT!!!!!
Ok so in the meantime, I tried some new things.
- Tried a official shendu OS, same problem.
- Tried with mod Heuxxx V4.0 MOD which was from the mod CM7 kernel thread.
Also made an interesting discovery. When checking the country frequency in CM7 development settings, not only was the freq. stuck at 1GHz, but the governor was also stuck on performance. Which to my understanding, is either at full speed when on or min speed when screen off.
This would explain the reason why my phone couldn't read states from cpu spy (which I got to work after using setCPU to change governor and freq.)
Maybe the phone, through either setCPU or CM7 settings, can't change the governor even tho it may say that that it is operating under another governor.
Just a quick query, is there any way that I can get the sorta CPU scaling from roms like Zeus or Marvel on any CM7 roms? Because it seems that all these CM7 based roms are either running at peak 1GHz or 200MHz.

[Q] Help with overclocking kernels.

I'm quite new with rooting Android phones so please bare with me.
I'm running ReVoluTioNMoD v3.3(De-Sense Edition) and I flashed Nameless Rom's 806OC and worked perfect fine with No-frills CPU(an overclocking app). A day later I see Promotheus Kernel 828 Kernel and I flashed it, but it was really unstable for my phone and would randomly reboot. So I flash 806OC and it seems fine but later when I restart my phone and check No-frills CPU and find my my phone can be overclocked to 828mhz and my phone would go back being unstable.
I was wondering if I can completely delete the 828OC kernel. Or would I have to wipe the phone completely?
(And I haven't done any dirty flashing with my phone as I only started a week ago.)

oh sorry guys, forgot to mention that I always erase cache before flashing a kernel
reflash rom and c again if the problem still persists re install rom
Some phones just can't handle 828MhZ just pic the one that works the best!

Pretty much the reason why I went back to flash 806Mhz again. I'll try to do a clean flash of a ROM to see if it does anything

Before you flash your rom , have a little play with all the kernels nikhil made . Don't just look at the oc speeds as he pushed other settings in the kernel .
So an 800 may well have settings more at the limit than an 828 .
It's most definitely worth having a play with all of them:good:
