[Q] Touchscreen losing sensitivity on keyboard - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is this a hardware issue or a software (kernel?) issue? I first noticed this issue when I flashed CM7 on my MT4G last year, and now again on CM9 or AOKP ROMs. I never really had this issue with Gingerbread Sense ROMs, though, so I was just curious if anyone knew if this was more likely a hardware or software issue.

Might be related to this, have a read and see what you think

Yeah, I'd seen that thread from ages ago, but it didn't seem to help.
I flashed a Sense ROM the other day, and the problem seems to have disappeared. So, it could be a ROM thing or a kernel thing (as this ROM came with a 3.0 kernel instead of the 2.whatever in my previous AOSP ROM).

It's a kernel related issue, it's fixed on synth aospx kernel and elgins 3.x kernel it doesn't happen on gingerbread sense because the kernels are based off of the stock kernel

Custom ROMs on official gingerbread

Hi all,
For everyone asking about custom roms ont 2.3.4 here is the situation :
For everyone who have upgraded the MS2 to the Official 2.3.4, no step back is possible to Froyo 2.2 or 2.2.2.
custom ROMs based on Froyo will not work (like CM7/9 from Tezet.)
=> Someone will have to build on based on the 2.3.4 kernel.
custom ROMs based on Chinese GB seems to work...
=> MS2Ginger for exemple.
custom ROMS based on Defy+ ROMs ?
So, who want that the CM or MIUI ROMs are ported to the newer Motorola kernel ? (So everyone could choose between BLUR, CM and others ?)
I say it on an other thread that the ms2ginger and the argen2stone roms are running on an ms2 with stock gb rom. Somebody must make an cm7 with the 2.3 kernel than wie can use customroms.
thanks for your thread.
But my question is, this official rom 2.3.4 does work better than froyo? or the custom rom 2.3.7 de CM7? It might be a dumb question or it's answered in another thread, if that case sorry.
Thanks
Yes i want Miui with the new kernel ! For a better touchsreen sensitivity for eg.
I try Argen2Stone 2.7 RE but i dont see adjust scrips and keep the old dialer from stock rom.
The 2.3.4 brings some bug fixes, and some upgrades.
From the kernel point of view, the same release is used (Linux Kernel 2.6.32.9). So no major bug fixes at kernel level for my point of view. Maybe some parameters changed.
The main point is for the "upgraders" to Gingerbread that can't go back to Froyo.

I tryed to flash MS2Ginger but the MS2 doesn't turn on.
I don't know.
could Anyone post how to flash step by step ?
tks
I think that the new kernel can improve MS2 performace so a rom based on the new kernel it's much better than the old modded rom.

I have the same idea...waiting for some MIUI or CM7 based on this new kernel.
I'd like someone who knows what they are doing to de-blur it. I have removed as much as I dare but still have too much moto... rubbish on the phone.
yeah agreed with u guys i wish a custom rom based on new gb 2.3.4

or new FR
is true. I think it's time to leave the kernel of froyo that is old and start to compile with the new kernel brings improvements and is of GB!
GB kernel is in fact the same linux kernel version as froyo kernel, so there are not any improvements except for some minor patches.... So no reason to leave froyo.
I just don't get why you all guys updated to GB and then you all crying, you can't use custom roms and that froyo kernel is old and why gingerbread isn't used... GB kernel in custom roms isn't high priority in dev right now. Deal with it. GB kernel don't bring any valuable improvements, so only reason to leave froyo and get in GB are you all, who did that mistake and upgraded to official GB without even reading the forum here (because it was already written so many times there...).
No offense please, I'm just sayin' that GB kernel in custom roms don't have high priority, because of missing downgrade capability and because they don't bring nothing so exciting and big or valuable, nothing worth. So when dev update to GB, he can't go back to froyo - and this is quite big limitation...
Actually CM9 does work over Euro GB kernel. It is based on Chinese GB kernel. And I must say Tezet has made some really good progress with CM9.
And Defy ROMs based on Defy+ kernel have also been proved to work on Euro GB kernel.
These ROMs work if we remove devtree.img and boot.img from the update.zip and thus only flash system.
So I guess it is only a matter of time.

No crying here, just discussion, which is what the forum is for. What was your point?
may be it's better to find a way to downgrade.

I think I said my point clearly... But once again then:

And don't take my words too personal. Easy man, easy...
Sometimes it's cool to have stock ROM. But,it will be much cooler if we can switch to custom ROM's. Stock ROMs are slower and less free RAM than CM7 or MIUI. Now,I'm getting bored with MS2Ginger2.1.
All we have to do is just wait..
hi, did anyone manage to overclock after updated to stock 2.3?
android overclock doesn't work anymore after i updated

[Q] Hashcode's Kernal Question

Hello all!
Noob here with a very nooby question....
So, I installed bl1nkk's ICS ROM on my kindle fire a while back & although limited in the SOD department...there was one instance where I had SOD for about 48hrs. I was just wondering if this has been identified as a Kernal issue & possible fix with Hashcode's kernal for ICS that he's been working on? Or is this a specific ROM issue with bl1inkk's ROM & I should just switch ROM's?
Thanks for any & all help!
I've been running the ROM from the thread in my sig ever since it's been out and haven't had a SOD in longer than I can remember. YMMV but I'm insanely happy with this ROM, I'm following HashCode's new kernel thread, but for me this is already daily driver as I don't need HWA for what I use it for.

[Q] Most stabe custom rom recommendation?

Hi guys, I've just recently purchased a U8800 (NOT pro, just the normal one).
I did some research already and the more I read, the more confused I am. It seems that many roms, especially the MIUI ones all have similar problems related to performance, wifi issues etc.
And speaking of MIUI roms, I'm not sure which one is the better one (in terms of speed and stability). Here're the ones I'm referring to:
[ROM] MIUI V4 based Elite ROM SX - (Stable) - 2012-07-14
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1562661
[ROM][MIUI-V4][2.8.3][3.0.8]CrazyMiui|08/05|{SMOOTH,FAST AND STABLE}
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1690156
MIUI PORTUGAL V4 - 2.9.29.1 (Base GenoKolar)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1928336&highlight=miui
It seems that some of them are based on GenoKolar's MIUI rom, and that some are based on other people's roms.
The same applies to other non-MIUI roms, such as this one:
[ROM] Elora 1.10.13 - 2012-10-13
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1798031
which is a hybrid of DZO's Alora rom and some extra added stuff from other roms.
Anyway, I'm really confused by which one to try. I don't want to risk bricking my device or going through the trouble of testing each one and experiencing the problems or bugs, and then try the next one and so on. I was wondering if someone could kindly provide some suggestions as to which rom is the most stable and is decent in terms of speed/performance.
Also, by stable I mean that it has the least bugs OR that it has the minimum amount of critical bugs that could affect the phone's daily use.
Thanks in advance.
Personally i think that for daily use ezet's CyanogenMod 7.2 with .32 kernel is the best considering performance,battery etc. but it is kind of outdated since dzo has made a pretty stable ICS rom(Aurora) which is a lot newer and smoother but with a few bugs remaining. Not to mention that dzo is from the same city as you haha!

Thanks for your reply!
Ya I also think that CM 7.2 is quite outdated, even my Motorola Milestone (which has locked bootloader and no custom kernel support until recently) is on an even newer CM RC release, I think it's on RC3 or RC4 now.
And ya I also agree that Dzo's Aurora rom is probably the most updated one around here but I did read a few comments in the last few pages about certain bugs so I dunno if I should flash it or not.....
I prefer Aurora 4.1u1 for daily use. There's still some bugs, but with some time and understanding of how to find the reason of your problem you'll get the most recent and stable ROM for U8800 now. Also Dzo's back and he is working on the update now so it wouldn't take long to fix all the bugs remaining.
Hi!
Actually i'm with Elora. It's pretty cool and stable.
Best regards
MIUI PT, based on Geno's version is the way to go., in my oppinion.
Very stable, nice and weekly updated
But, honestly speaking, althought every rom as its ups and downs, nothing like you try them all and see which one adapts better to your needs. :good:

[Q] What is the most stable AOSP/CM-rom for D802?

So basically, I've been going back and forth between different custom ROMs the last months but I've never found something that's really stable.
Either there's random reboots, lag or apps force closing.
So what I'm wondering is; does anyone have experience with a custom ROM that's rock solid stable? It has to be Lollipop, but I'd give up 5.1 for a really stable 5.0 ROM.
Oh, and please don't suggest LG stock ROM, I can't stand that.
I really appreciate some answers! Make sure to write what ROM you're using and the release number (or date if it's a nightly).
Thanks!

Anything CAF as it's using the same device source. Aside from that pick your flavor.
Also no 5.0 roms are stable for this device, unless you mean stock. But you mentioned you didn't want stock, so...
Have you tried Euphoria-OS? It's pretty darned stable, and it's 5.1 as well. You can get the official version by tsunamical that uses a CAF kernel (Qualcomm+CM), or the unofficial version from dr87 that uses the stock LG G2 LP kernel.
I've been running the official 6/10 build for a few weeks now and it's been really stable. A couple of random reboots but nothing to worry about. I would be running the newer build, but I dirty-flashed it and it went a little wonky so I restored the nandroid, and then tsunamical said he was going to post another one in a few days, so I decided to wait for that before doing another clean flash.

[Q] Why does most ROMs overheat?

Hello, for about 2 years, I was completely stock and rooted, and I liked it that way. But since i've seen many developments, I decided to go for a custom ROM.
For Stock based lollipop ROMs, most of them overheat for no reason, before I have even set up the phone.
On CM(12.1/12) and AOSP 5.1.1/5.0, it overheats and it sometimes turns off itself.
I have had NO issues of overheating on stock over the past (not lollipop).
Any ideas? Is there something I am doing something wrong, because when it overheats, it gets unusable and I am unable to even touch the phone!
Thanks.
It's not the ROM, but your S4. I've installed AICP, TeamUB, and JDCTeam Cyanogenmod-based builds, and at no time have I ever encountered this issue on my device.

It is weird as on stock kitkat it was perfect and as soon as I installed a custom ROM, it overheats.
Only on AOSP 4.4.4 it doesn't overheat
Part of it could be Android 5.x itself, but at worst you'd get a memory leak, and a memory leak should not cause the S4 to overheat. Have you had someone look at the S4, to make sure it isn't a hardware issue of some sort?
