Sorry, I wanted to post this in one of the kernel threads, but I'm not allowed yet, and anyway, I wouldn't know which one since a few different kernels are mentioned.
I recently updated from Paranoid Android -- erm, whatever the last 4.2 version was -- to Paranoid Android 3.99 with M-kernel a61. Netflix started to buffer and lag like crazy, then eventually froze the tablet and I'd have to restart.
I found the mr2 M-kernel a few days later, and thought maybe that would fix it, but it didn't. I decided it was the ROM, so I switched to CM10.2 with M-kernel, and still, Netflix didn't work right. I love my Paranoid Android, so I thought, if switching ROMs doesn't work, then forget it. I switched back to Paranoid Android.
This time I tried Lean Kernel, and finally, Netflix works. I tried Franco and Netflix is awful again. So, it's not just M-kernel.
I know the easy solution would be to use Lean Kernel, but I guess I just want to understand what's going on.

Doesn't work right on stock 4.3 either. At least for me! So for my 4 year old to be happy again....back on 4.2.2 was my solution. Not sure why updated anyway. No 4.2.2 lag for me. And 4.3 is a minor update which included nothing I would care about.
Just want my tab stable......my phone is for messing with.

I occasionally watch netflix on my 7, complete stock 4.3, not even rooted as I don't need it. No issues whatsoever, even on the super slow WiFi at my workplace once it loads I never have to wait for any buffering. I can't say anything regarding flash though, as I don't do anything on the 7 requiring flash.
And stable is definitely a must, I would say with my current 20 day uptime it's perfectly stable for me.

Well, I flashed 3.99 on its own, and Netflix works just fine. I wonder why it doesn't like me when I install custom kernels.
At least it works.

I did the one click method of rooting my Xoom and it loaded the Tiamat 1.3.0 kernel. After doing so I can be in games, browsing web, youtube...... It really doesn't matter but probable 3-5 times a day it will lock up and reboot. I then tried flashing the new Tiamat 1.4.0 kernel and I am experiencing the same thing.
Has anyone else experienced these same issues.
Thanks in Advance
Unfortunately that is exactly the same experience I get when trying to use the tiamat kernel. You're only option is to go back to stock or deal with the reboots. If you need help going back to stock, let me know.

You and many others have been running it without a hitch. Unfortunately, every device is different. This means that the kernel will work for some and may not for others. Me and the OP are 2 of the unlucky ones :-(.
I have the latest Tiamat Kernel and it works fine but I have always experienced these erractic restarts and such, it's nothing new. I am just getting used to it, at least until Google IO where I am ASSUMING they acknowledge these issues on Honeycomb.

I'm running 1.4.0 Tiamat and I get a lot of reboots/instability. Probably gonna go back to stock for the update.
I had the same problem, I flashed cybertronics p6 kernel and I seemed to get less reboots.
I get random reboots sometimes, maybe once a day or so. It also depends on what I'm doing. It's annoying, but I think I can live with it at that rate as long as it doesn't get any more frequent.
update to 1.3.2 or 1.4..
Fixed it for me.
if the upgrading to 1.4.0 doesn't fix your issues, consider downgrading to 1.1.6 to see if that fixes your problems. you will lose sdcard2 support though.

Well technically every device should not be different unless you're talking Wifi vs 3G.
Tell me: If I build four computers using all identical parts... how are they all different? I should expect software to run the same on each machine.
I have been getting reboots now more than usual over the past couple weeks. I'm rooted and have the latest Tiamat. They happen maybe 2 or 3 a day.
great point....ps one click root method has known problems and the developer is not supportive...solnarz is the man though and helped me a bunch for my root which is runninggreat on tiamat 1.4.4

Forgot to quote...this was a good point..
I was on Tiamat 1.4.2 with these same issues. Market would crash it, FB would crash it, browser was guaranteed to crash it.
Grab the stock files from the Motorola site and flash the device back to stock. Go through the root process again. Make sure you wipe device during the root.
I went to 1.4.4FT and now I only suffer the JavaScript of Death condition.
I have seen this asked a couple times but have not seen a good answer. Can anyone answer these questions?
- Are the Google apps in the EOS build/G-Apps package the same version?
-Are there features in the official ICS build that are not implemented or working yet in EOS builds?
-Other than root/OC capabilities are there features in EOS builds that are not in the official release? (I think facial recognition is one feature skipped in the official release)
-General stability differences?
I apologize if this has been answered. I tried reading through hundreds of pages in the EOS nightly thread and passed out sometime around page 170.

Hi HuckFinn, longtime, no see.
I'm extremely happy with EOS wingray ICS (I'm on build 36/GApps v10.1). Only bugs I see are caused by apps that are not yet compatible, and they're being updated daily.
I can't see any advantage to going to the trouble of going back to stock to flash this official beta when there are great alternatives that won't break your root. Unless playing Gameloft games is more important to you...there seems to be intermittant license recognition issues.
There are more features and things working with EOS than the stock update. EOS quick settings, battery theme options and more. Stock ICS won't ever see that. Plus micro USB otg is much more functional on EOS.

Yeah I have been pretty quiet on the forums lately. I am currently running the stock ICS update that was posted by solarnz just to see how it runs. I am missing root and all of the other Tiamat/EOS goodies so I am very tempted to install the latest nightly build. The stock ICS is running pretty smooth and I like the latest stock browser and gmail applications. That is why I am wondering if all the Google apps are the same version.

Gapps are the same (this whole new ics experience apps). EOS has been improving very fast, but I rarely check for updates no (still on version 34a). I think you'll love the EOS version, especially if you're coming from the early ics release.

I also am running the stock ICS update from HTK75D - just love it. I may go to a custom ROM, but the stock ICS runs so well, I'm not sure I see a compelling reasong to do so. There are people on this board, though, that continually criticize people who stay on stock - they need to give it a rest, IMO, some people like me just want a tablet that works, and not interested in loading nightlies to see tweaks every day.
If you want to root from 3.2, let me know via PM (I've posted in several threads and don't want to be a "cross-poster") - there are a few changes to the published rooting procedures needed; the last OTA intentionally added a script to overwrite a custom recovery partion. I did not identify the problem or create the fix, but can describe it more concisely that you might see elsewhere. Easy to get around.......

Correct. Was looking forward to the novelty.
Well I went ahead and installed build #38 over the weekend. It went very smoothly with no problems.
-Unlocked
-Flashed CWM Recovery
-Rebooted into recovery (nothing special, just hit vol- after 3 seconds)
-Perfomed a wipe
-Flashed EOS nightly
-Flash Google Apps 10.2
-Rebooted and all was good
I then used Titanium Backup to restore all my Apps/App Data and was back up and running in no time.
I had no major issues with the stock build. I just missed the extra EOS goodies and face unlock is a neat trick. If stock ICS is enough for you then I see no need to flash anything else. I was using Tiamat Moray and got used to the quick setting controls so was missing them.

Would you share that explanation and work-around for the script that came with the Honeycomb OTA update with me, please? I'd like to add it to the adb/fastboot/rooting guide, as what is in there now is confusing. I'm personally not familiar with the issue, so it would help to get the story from someone who knows. You'll get full credit, I promise.
And by the way, I'm glad the ICS stock update is working for you.

I thought it would be a novelty too, until I used it. I'm loving the face unlock, it's very fast and accurate. I did have to "improve" the recognition because sometimes I've got glasses or a hat on but now it only misses if I'm holding the Xoom at an off angle or in the dark. You do have to remember to hold the Xoom square when turning it on because the camera starts hunting for your face immediately.

Cyanogenmod 7.2 RC1
Could not locate any thread on this. Please post your feedback.
Euroskank have been releasing RC1 kangs since forever. Performance is fine, add-ons are nice. I love the ROM but it's not stable on crespo and crespo4g. Other devices are fine though.
I used one of the latest nightly's for a few days hoping they had fixed the stability problems, pulled my phone out of my pocket and found it bootlooping(dim/garbled boot animation loop, which was new to me as before I would just get the 'buttons lit up no responsive sleep of death' with previous versions).
I doubt 7.2 fixed anything with crespo.
Wish someone could figure out what the problem was as stock doesn't have these problems.
Love all the features and tweaks CM7 has over stock, but pulling the battery on a regular basis is not what I would call a stable release.
instability on a stable RC from CM is discouraging.
did anyone report this to CM team?
You can submit bug reports if you find anything broken in your device while running CM7.2-RC1 be sure to submit a report through here , so that they can fix it in time for the final 7.2 release.

It's a long standing issue with it, as far back as 7.0.3, probably even further.
It's hard to catch a log of the bootloops because they're don't occur in any discernible pattern that I know of.

Though there's many users available for logging. I've pulled a billion logcats of what was happening when it froze/bootlooped. When it freezes you can still adb to it.
Problem is no one seems really concerned over at CM forums, they'd rather add more stuff than root out 6+ months old problems. *shrugs*
Oxygen FTW. Never crashes on me.

Like an intelligent flashaholic, when I first rooted my phone, waaaaaaay back over 2 years ago, the firs thing I did was make a backup of my stock/rooted setup, then saved a copy on my computer. Every few months, I'll nandroid back, update any apps that need to be, then make a new, updated Backup.
Lately, I've been having a lot of problems with my phone, trying to run Jellybean ROMS, which has been a disaster. Even ruinning Kendall's Jellybread ROM, I have some issues with lagginess, occasional Force Closes, etc.
Yesterday morning, my phone was basically not usable, and not having time to play with anything because of work, I just flashed back to my stock/rooted ROM, updated it and have been running pure stock since. The weird thing is, it's the best my phone has run. Smooth, fast, everything working (Of course this is still Froyo, but still). It's just really ugly as hell, but it's amazing how smooth everything is.
OK, time to flash a ROM.....

Hey hip, got a suggestion for your next flash.
Do your backup thing, wipe as usual, then flash rom.
Only this time before you reboot, push your log to sd. Then view it after everything is done...
Reason im saying this is mine would be fine then not...when I pulled the log fron recovery it actually showed that I had bad memory blocks an it was unable to repair/format/fix them..
Now my phone was and is usable still...but I cant flash all the roms. Only one that 100% worked was mazwoz.
So its just a thought bro, figured I'd share what I found. And without pulling the log I would have never seen it.

Anyway, the roms would mostly flash on my phone. But some just didn't. I was testing rom for soap, tronit, an shaggy an none booted for me but worked fine for others.
Then I flashed say jmz rom an it worked fine. I started to notice that things weren't working.

Are MIUI mtz's universal or device specific?
I they are universal. I have some on my pc that i used on both the og and 3vo that my ex gf had.
FYI I dumped the preinstalled ics theme. So now any theme will install for the die hard miui user and the black ice mtz will be installed on the sdcard. The jb launcher is no longer default you can choose on boot which one you want. Now to get the ICS effect you go into settings themes and choose black ice. If you use the jb launcher you will need to go under launcher settings and reboot launcher. Now everything looks ics even the lockscreen.
I've been thinking about flashing a custom ROM onto my Essential, but, unlike the S4's GoldenEye, there are no clearly stable ROMs I've heard of. So, if it's not a bother, could you guys recommend a good, stable custom ROM for beginners? I'd like one I can stick with for a while without any huge bugs to get me to jump ship. Thanks for reading. A response would be greatly appreciated.
P.S: Please, none of the "Stock is best". The amount of forums I've seen where those are the only replies are ridiculous, as they don't even actually answer the question at hand.
I don't think you'll get an answer to your question because I don't think anyone has tested all ROMs and compared them. Even then it would be kinda subjective. I did install Paranoid quartz v1 and am using it as a daily driver. Only issue with this ROM is that the device is not certified in Play Store so I can't install Netflix without some extra tinkering. Besides that, the ROM is awesome. I also tried the second version of this ROM, but it seems to have a battery issue.

Hey. I downloaded Evolution X, and I plan to flash it tomorrow. What build are you on? I downloaded 4.20, but I'd like to know which is the nlst recent stable build. I'd like to stick with a custom ROM for a while without switching due to bugs, if I can. Thanks.

I flashed 4.20 the day before yesterday and have found no bugs yet. I first flashed the January Firmware, AOSP Vendor fastboot script as found on the StatiXOS OP.

Thanks. Texting you from Evolution X 4.2. It runs great. Only minor thing that bugs me is that I can't take away permissions from Google apps. But, like I said, that's pretty much a non-issue, especially when you look at the features and customization options. Thanks to everyone for the help. Have a good one.

Google play system update is still in Sept 2019, isn't it?
And can't make a phone call or receive call.

Haven't tested that out yet. It is on September 2019 build, though, But, I just called my carrier, and they picked up just fine. Although, that may be because it's my carrier. I'll try with a real number later, and I'll report back. Thanks for the heads-up.

If you have no sound when calling or receiving, in Phone - Setting - Accessibility, make sure Hearing aids is switch off. It's been turn on by default in some cases. I didn't know this until I change to another ROM.
