Hey guys, want to ask, is there any reason of me to flash my radio and also kernel?
Current radio: 32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27
Current kernel: 2.6.32.15-leedroid_2.3

Also, if I want to try out another ROM, which one should I try out? MIUI? DHD ROM? Gingerbread ROM?

Hi, I want to ask, what is the advantages of getting S-OFF?
For what I see, it's just that you can change the partition of the internal memory to get more use-able internal memory for apps when using a small custom ROM, like MIUI.
Anymore advantages more than that?

Perhaps this question can be added to the homepage as well, as I don't seem to find any info there.

When you S-ON you fake flashing recovery..

S-OFF leh you can use fastboot to do it

Can also change splash image
and boot animation

Basically can flash .img I guess

Those are fancy stuff only, any practical features about it?
I don't think I would risk bricking my phone for the candies.

You already risked your phone rooting for a ROM.

Changing Hboot is very useful for space.

Int mem 300mb, you don't need ext, saved space and time formatting uSD...
If Desire had >1.5GB rom, the whole point about rooting is also fancy stuff then?
Oh, and this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=806321

So, resizing the internal memory is still the main advantage of getting S-OFF?
Well, I guess I still stick to S-ON. Checked out MIUI preview and doesn't like it too much.
Might stick to some 'bigger' ROM, and also A2SD+ (I am about to fill up my 512MB EXT3 partition, LOL..).

got 1, usually Sense ROM bigger. ASOP rom smaller after installation. you can check the /syatem size to compare each time you try different rom.
rooting, partition, flash any rom, flash recovery, etc.. anything wrong, no worries. as long you have pc and usb cable
but S-OFF is more advanced thing, is actually modified the HBOOT, something like board bios. if the moment S-OFF, ur pc hang or power off.
possible it gonna brick the phone. but if you follow the steps carefully, with latest version of s-off which are very stable. it's not scary at all.

so, understand first the advantage of s-off, are you really need it and understand? then go ahead. for me, I s-off so we can choose the recommended system partition or custom table we like. I have 303MB internal memory, happy with it.. compare to stock user, only have 147MB internal memory.
*
Say, now we jump to AOSP or Gingerbread ROM, which are generally smaller than Sense ROM, we can take advantages of their smaller size and get S-OFF to resize the internal memory. Then, when we want to get back to Sense ROM, we will have to adjust again? (I am thinking that it's a yes, but just need some confirmation.)

Thanks. But I am happy with the stock Launcher for now. Will certainly take a look on it when I got bored with this one.

Actually LeeDroiD speed,  I can't really feel that too.  But the a2sd+ real let me enjoy all apps without worrying internal memory

Did yours lag very much when you try to install apps?
I found myself getting caught into a lag with LeeDrOid 2.3d A2SD+, and even scarier lag in ReflexTSense (HD Rom), but the A2SD in Oxygen works just smoothly!

shoot..very good.
u r on which rom?
i couldnt even get below 50mA on wifi.
couldnt agree more rclxms.gif
tried oxygen today, but return back to cm.
oxygen cant customize much. cant even unlock n wake up using trackball.


Added on March 5, 2011, 8:09 pm

did u reflash rom?
some roms are lag if u just flash it once.
i make a habit of reflashing at least twice before using and customize..
*
What customisation can it do?
I don't really like trackball wake actually. Didn't use that and sometimes wake screen accidentally when I do not want it.


I flashed a few times, because it's my first custom ROM and I thought I didn't partition correctly.
Experienced it again in the HD Rom, so I think it might be an inherited problem of Sense-based ROM or just the script not powerful enough.
Oxygen is nice, and its A2SD also smooth, like it.

To everyone using GB rom.Does your wifi get dc-ed for no reason at all? Then after this happens havr to off n on wifi again. It happens to me on all the GB roms :/ doesn't happen on sense froyo though rclxub.gif

I find that it is sort of suppressed when the screen is off, and come back online once I switch my screen on back. Always get my GMail notification after I wake up my phone after I wake up. Not too big a deal for me.
I am on Oxygen 2.0.1.

Yesterday played with my fren's Desire HD, downloaded an app which analyze the cpu, its cpu speed stated as 1,031 instead of the same like ours, 988mhz, but he did not root the phone. Furthermore I played Angry Birds Season in his device, it is totally lag free, no lag at all, compare against mine which has noticeable lag (without ad cz i played offline). I checked the memory availability are 301mb, however mine is 260mb, I overclocked my cpu to the max 1190mhz still the same, any clue guyz?

Last restart was when? Tried clearing dalvik cache?

Hey guys, anyone of you using the Xperia Arc Launcher?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.p...83&postcount=43

Not so customisable (no scrolling docks, no gesture actions, no custom icon) but it is smooth and has a lot of awesome transition here and there.

I usually check via AppBrain market. Sometimes, we don't see the updates even in Market although there is a newer version. I believe it's due to the carrier. Use Market Enabler to fake yourself as Verizon and you can update well via AppBrain already.
