Ah cool, can count on you to test kernels and all tongue.gif

Hmm sounds like a fix one thing another thing breaks kinda situation so far.

Remembered you saying thoravukk nothing significantly diff. Tried older NEAKs, nothing too different as well (as opposed to GB NEAK, which had blazing speed).

Still waiting for a kernel with good performance, and hopefully decent battery, in that order tongue.gif

if you use cwm manager
zimage/tar --> use flash kernel
zip --> use flash update.

Mobile odin i not so familiar. I think its tar for flash kernel. Dunno about zip or zimage.

Ah okie, and you download CWM in case you need to do from actual recovery itself, makes sense biggrin.gif

Hmm so if I flash zimage/tar via app, won't go through recovery basically? Thought it kinda still boots into recovery, just that it does it automatically for you? unsure.gif

Dunno. I think not. Like mobile odin, it does not need recovery, only root. Basically it straight away reboot like normal.

Anyway, the problem with flashing zip file in recovery is the updater script is the zip file which normally cleans cache. By direct flashing zimage or tar there is no script to execute. So even if it goes through recovery, it is still safe.

Guys, ever encountered the device heating up after loading Tegrak overclock module? This occurs even without any tweaks of sorts at Tegrak. Just loading it.

this is really depend on user
for me i play with flashing from time to time
so i felt safer to keep it on external sd card
to be truth the internal memory not enough for me to keep all my data
TB single occurance backup already taken up almost 3gb of my storage

Depends on your usage. Some people like games like those gameloft ones than can take up alot of space. Some fill with songs, videos, pictures, etc... If you need you need. If you dun need then dun need lor, rolleyes.gif

by the way, the internal, although mentioned 16GB, only 11.5GB available to user.. the rest used by the system..

my ext micro-sd 32GB is filled with music/pic/videos.. internal for the roms and games.. modern combat 3 already put ~1.3GB..
