[Q] MT4G Wifi Calling Compatibility w/ROMs and Kernels - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have had the MyTouch 4G (Glacier) since it first came out and
rooted it and have flashed many awesome custom ROMs. I was wondering if any one else has noticed compatibility issues with certain Custom Kernels and Wifi Calling functionality? Here's what I have found:
Wifi Calling Works Fully (Including sending/receiving MMS)
-Stock Froyo ROM w/ stock Kernel
-Leaked Gingerbread ROM w/ stock Kernel
Wifi Calling Works Partially (Calling Only, no MMS functionality No "G" appears)
-Royal Glacier 1.2, 1.3 using Faux's FROYO Sense Kernel
-Stock Froyo with Faux's Froyo Sense Kernel
-Leaked Gingerbread ROM with Faux's GB Sense Kernel
-Royal Panache w/ Faux's GB Sense Kernel
Wifi Calling Doesn't Work at all
-Royal Glacier 1.3 using m-deejay's Unity Kernel

I've also noticed that mute functionality on wifi calling is broken on all the gingerbread roms I've tried (cm7, royalginger, and nexus aosp).

For some reason mms does not work using fauxs kernels using wifi calling if you have zero actual cell coverage.
I.e. use cm stock, works. Install fauxs kernel, doesn't.
Use faux aosp doesn't work. Install another kernel, works.
Basically I have narrowed it down to faux kernels not sending mms using wifi calling if you have no cell reception.
Annoying, as I love fauxs kernels, but I rely totally on wifi calling for service

I have stock rom, wifi calling didnt work with the Canadian radio.

[Q] SETCPU

Hey, quick question: I am on mytouch 4g cm7 ROM
What is a safe max to set the overclocking at? Obviously I don't want to burn the chip, but I want to make it as fast as possible. I have LauncherPro, currently my max is at 1.4, but sometimes it lags when I gesture to expand home screens.
I have 7 Home screens, all of them have 1 or more widget..
Thanks
1.5 is a good speed but you really wanna avoid charging when its set that high. so when charging set it to 1.2. Also what Kernel are you using? Defaults on Faux123 ASOP kernel should do well. I'n still on T-Mo stock and i run defaults with Faux123 Sense Kernel and i have no lag at all so CM7 whit its optimized code and no bloat it should run like a dream with one of his kernels, no OC Needed
Edit: corrected Link

Will the Kernel you linked to work with CM7 rc3? It only mentions CM6
Nm, Cm7 is the gingerbread...see it..got it, thanks!
I kept mine at 1.2ghz. Never gave me a problem.

So I flashed 2.3.0 , then like the thread says, before rebooting, I flashed 2.4.3 stock version.
However, I am getting a wi-fi error. I saw some posts on it, and they said to "fix permissions". So I did that, yet still seeing a wi-fi error.
So for now, I restored my backup, but I would really like to have this kernel, do you know what I am doing wrong or what I can do to fix it?
Thanks
My mistake i linked the wrong Kernel here you go.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=957267
Yeah, I did use that link, however as described above, the wifi is giving me an error..any idea of a fix or what I am doing wrong?
I was getting the same issues. Then I reflashed the rom, rebooted before turning wifi on and had no problems. Also have had no problems set at 1.75 max and .75 min on minmax. Have been using that setting since faux started making his kernels (cm7 amd froyo based) and have never froze once. Quadrant scores for the new evil dhd ext 4 rom at 2900.

[KERNEL] Best kernel for HD2 NAND

Hi, what's the best kernel for NAND Desire HD Build?? Rafpigna 1.9OC have overclock issues. What's the best and how to install it?? THANKS!!
Overclock issues like what? I hope you don't think overclocking to 1.9 is safe, or will make your device work properly. If you overclocked to say 1.2/3 You should be okay. If you overclock to anymore than that you're bound to run into problems. If even when you overclock to 1.2/3 and you face issues, or even 1.1, then your HD2 has problems. Either way, the HD2 wasn't meant to get extreme overclocking as it even heats up when it is capped at 1ghz.
@ kailkti..
1.9 is just version number...you can overclock most to to 1536 mhz or something like that..i personally keep it at 1190..its perfectly stable..as for best kernel..two kernels stand out rafpignas and tytung..i would choose tytungs r10 or r9...
yes, 1.9 is version number. Rafpigna's kernel have the event number issue, which cause randomly high cpu usage and lags. With tytung kernel i have reboot loop at htc bootanimation. I use Stock Desire HD Rom by EFyodor.Actually with MDJ's Kernel v10.4OC but have some bugs. Any idea for get working tytung or another good kernel to try??
And at what clock speed do you experience these laggs and what not? As I said, if you experience them at 1.2ghz then your phone has a bad processor, or you need an non undervolted kernel, if it happens when you go above 1.2 ghz then it is expected to have problems since these are not "safe" speeds. If you have it even when at 1ghz then more than likely it's your phone or you again need an non undervolted kernel.
Note however i think you need to clarify on what the "laggs" and "bugs" are that you speak of. Because you have to remember, any sense rom uses up more resources, hence operating more slow than other roms, which might be the cause for your "lagg", which is experienced by anyone who uses sense.
If you are talking, saying random reboots, 1 min lagg, or so and you have not done anything or is running anything, then you might want to look for a kernel which isn't undervolted. If the same still happens, then it is your processor.
Roms with Tytung kernels face bluetooth issues... i have used many 2.3.4 roms with tytung kernals ... can any one suggest any other kernel for sd roms also? I have tried rafpigna also but in that mobile connection is not stable...

if you were SD i'd suggest the ACA kernel. we've just about figured out the bt issues as far as i can tell now.
here at some point i'll release the updated ACA kernel for full NAND use.
I had try to use Kernel GL_Core v11 uv and R1.9
Kernel GL_Core v11 is better for me
I am using Boyppc desire hd v14

you must download the AmeriCanAndroid Rom and extract from there the kernel.

The best combo of kernel and rom is rafpigna 1.8 oc no sense and hyperdroid cm7 2.0.1 @ 1536mhz. It runs great and every single feature works great, as well as EDGE, 3g, bluetooth, tethering. Everything works great. This is the perfect combo. It runs great but typical os optimizations are REQUIRED to having your phone running epically fast. You will need the right nand partitions etc. I experience absolutely no issues what so ever on that combo, I'm not kidding. Everyone seems to be having issues, and I used to be one of them. Install the latest CMW 3.2.??X? and flash ur partitions correctly then install the rom from sd to nand, install 1.8 oc no sense, restart and everything is 100% perfect. I now wish I could alter the oc code of rafpigna's rom. I know it's possible to run faster. My phone doesn't run hot at all, at 1536mhz for hours and hours on end. This phone could handle 1.7-2Ghz with voltage increase, I GUARANTEE IT. It will just take time and patience.
The raf kernel still has the 60mAh bluetooth drain when used in non-sense builds. The best option for kernel is Tytung r10, until charansingh finishes work on the .37 kernel

Kernel problem?

I want to ask can a kernel cause a screen disorder?
Why am i asking this (according to myself, stupid) question?
Because when I flash HCDR.Jacobs v4.1 or v4.2 kernel on any ROM it causes the screen to flicker and screen becomes snowy while turning on. And when i flash any other kernel, problem disappears.
And, by jacob, that kernel can be flashed to any ROM.
P.S. Can you tell me whats the best kernel according to you for wildfire (include link to the kernel thread please)?
Which ROM are you using?
If you are using CM7, stick with the stock kernel included in it. (nFinity by arco). It's the best one IMO, because arco has optimized it a lot for the Wildfire.
Jacob's kernel v4.2 may cause stability issues because it is clocked at 768MHz OC by default, and, many Wildfire's hang or are unstable at that speed. It's unlikely though why its happening in v4.1, but, in any case, its highly recommended to stick with the CM7 stock kernel as stated.
If for any other ROM, use this one. It's the same as arco's nFinity and Jacob's kernel, but, modified a bit to run on other ROMs

Kernel is something like a bridge between the hardware and software to communicate with each other. Eg: oc kernel allows overclocking.

Wifi N is a type of wifi networking.
The WF doesn't have support of it afaik.

Thats funny as I'm connected to a WIFI N @150Mbps, which I find strange as the device isn't supposed to be capable of it.

Nexus one slow tether cm nightly...

Hi,
I have a xoom and always use it when tethered to nexus one. I am using the wifi tether built in to the os, not any wifi tether app. I get about 10% of the speed. I did a speednet test on phone and xoom tethered and I got about 3m down/1m up on phone and about 300k down / 100k down on xoom.
Any one knows if there is a tweak I need to do? I am using wpa for encryption.
Is the stock wifi tether slow and maybe I should try a market wifi tether app?
Thanks for any help.
Btw I am on cm7 nightly may 12 2011.
I tries wifi tether and it fails to initialise wife drivers.. so that didnt help.
Thanks

I have the same setup and not having any slow downs. Have you flashed a custom kernel or anything?
Yes. As indicated using cynagon mod 7. Are u stock? What version?
Thanks.
I'm using cm7, I was more curious if you had flashed one of the many kernels available or perhaps a kanged build based off of cm7 nighties which might have a different kernel baked in
Nope. Just cm7 nightly, currently on 165.

[Q] Working wifi with GB kernel and Froyo ROM?

I have finally found the best mix of ROM and kernel but with one problem, wifi doesn't work. Whenever I try to go to turn it on it just says error and can't connect. The kernel that I am using is HierOS 1.7.5 kernel mainly because of the smartass governor v2 since overclocking no longer gets my cpu speed stuck at 384. The ROM I am trying to use it on is Cmylxgo's stock desire HD ROM.

You can try to turn the phone off as soon as you get the error when turning wifi on
And go into Recovery>Advanced >FIX PERMISSIONS
If kernel is compatible it should fix it for you
If not I suggest to find another Froyo Rom like Coredroid 1.6 or 1.7
All works there and it's also Themed so its an eyecandy it works with Hieros Kernel

You need to find another kernel to use. The one you listed is for Gingerbread based ROMs and not Froyo based like Cmylxgos. Is there a problem with using the current Rafpinga 1.9 kernel associated with Cmylxgo's ROM? When I was on his ROM, I never had a issue with WiFi connectivity. I am now using Tytung's Nexus HD2 v3.0 ROM which is a Gingerbread ROM. No WiFi issues as well.
