LG Ally :: Velocity .2 With Jit Kernel And New 2.1 Update
Sep 21, 2010
I have my lg Ally with the new Jit kernel (Thanks Drellisdee), with Velocity 0.2 (Thanks Trident) and am overclocking at 768 mhz. I want to apply the new update, VZB, and then put velocity and the jit kernel back. So my thoughts are that I would have to...
1.) Backup rom/Apps/Data (Titanium Backup/ROM Manager)
2.) Go into Recovery (Clockworkmod) and make a nendroid backup.
3.) Wipe Dalvik, data, and cache.
4.) Install vzb via Drellisdee's rooted update (After i check md5)
5.) Then Apply Velocity 0.2
6.) Apply the kernel
7.) Restore data from titanium backup...
Is this what I would do? What about the ally's unofficial "V9" update that has to be installed manually... Is that worth it or should I just do VZB?
Also, do I need to go to a stock rom proior to the update?

Ok, the family has Allys I am trying to convince them to let me flash Velocity to their phones, But they think I will kill their phones. Would there be a good noticeable speed difference, Battery life? Any other odd perks I can use to convince them?
Cause they are always complaining about how it is slow.

1. I've been reading posts for an hour now and can't find a direct answer. Or maybe there is one and I'm missing it due to my lack of rooting knowledge. I am using velocity .2 and clockwork mod recovery. I am getting a system update notification, Update now/Later, etc. What do I do? I am reading some of the posts and some seem like they pertain to it. Since Im rooter and on velocity.
2. Can I update? Do I have to go to the stock LG rom in rom manager and apply that first?
Do I have to do a factory reset? Am I supposed to lose root. Some help on how to apply the update with velocity .2 and clockword mod recovery tutorial to apply the update without bricking phone please.

My LG Ally is stuck at the "VELOCITY" boot screen and is stuck in a loop. I had Velocity 0.3 flashed yesterday and I decided to re-flash today. I have tried wiping data/files/cache/dalvik cache. I'm stuck and I don't know what to do. Also I never did a Nandroid backup (because I'm slow).

Where can I find that exact flashlight app that is in Velocity 0.3? When I look in the market, there are TONS of them and most of them only make the touch screen turn bright.P.S. I did have Velocity 0.3, but went back to just a stock rom with Universal Androot. Google maps, which I actually use a lot, was being very slow and buggy for me.

I just compiled a very small theme to test the waters. Its basically only an edit of the status bar, battery icon, browser background, and for no reason what so ever made the gtalk icon grey scale.Like I said, testing the waters here and only did a tiny bit of modifying. When Velocity 0.2 comes out I will be making a more detailed theme. This is just something to throw on your rom while you wait.Note: This will not completely replace your current theme if you have one. This theme will work best when installed on the stock theme.Beautiful Widgets and launcherpro not included.

So with 2 ROM's out now everybody want's to know the "under-the-hood" benefits of both ROM's. Both Velocity and Raptor report 6.8 MFLOPS with Linpack, no OC, just the Turbo. Testing battery on both, will let you guys know tomorrow.
-ILL RUN SOME SERIOUS STRESS TESTS ON BOTH ROM'S TO SEE WHICH ONE CAN HANDLE MORE RESOURCE USE BEFORE A BUNCH OF FORCE CLOSES POP-UP OR PHONE STARTS FREEZING.
My opinion: In my opinion Velocity is snappier but I'll post more on this by tomorrow so check back!

I have the haptic feedback enabled and it works for everything that I have used except the virtual keyboard.
I'm wondering if anyone else has this issue. I have the OC kernel as well set at 729/245.

I want to switch from raptor back to velocity .3. except that after putting raptor on i downloaded a new kernel. Can I put velocity on with the kernel I have now or do I have to change it to one from the velocity post? and if I do have to change it, do I change it before or after changing the rom to velocity?

The Kindle app doesn't work in Velocity 0.3. It worked fine in stock ROM. I can download a book but when I try to read it, I get an error that it can't open the book. This happens with books I have on my archive list as well as new downloads.

If this is the wrong place to post, apologies. I recently rooted, got ROM Manager with Clockwork Recovery and flashed the Velocity ROM. Everything works quite awesome, but I'm not getting my notification sound when I get a text message. I do get it for other notification events, and I've tried a couple different sounds just for good measure. Is this a ROM issue? An issue with my phone? Anyone else experiencing it? Right now I'm using the default messaging app.

I have a copy of the Google Genie APK that has transparancy and was previously using it. Velocity 0.3 has the Genie widget (was it in 0.2 as well...don't recall) and I've tried removing it via a script in the terminal emulator. Removed fine, but I cannot install the APK I have for some reason. Simply comes up with the error "Application not installed". When I do attempt to install the APK, a message comes up saying that "The application you are installing will replace another application". I know that the file versions are different as well. Love the transparent widget.

Rooted my friends ally, installed velocity, than installed dreds custom kernel. The phone isnt liking it at all. I got a nandroid backuo, but much rather flash a stock kernel before restoring back.

I am using the turbo4 kernel and want to flash velocity, but noticed that on the thread for V3 there is a version modified to work with v3. I don't want to sound stupid, but is that one any different from the one I have? Do I have to flash the one from the Velocity thread before I can install velocity? Just trying keep things simple and reduce the chance for errors.

I wanted to know if there's a way to tether with the USB cable. I currently have Velocity v0.03 w/ drellisdee's GNM Turbo 4 kernel. The WiFi tether works fine but I want a way to tether with wired so it doesn't eat up my Ally's battery. I seen this: android-wired-tether - Project Hosting on Google Code. But it requires RNDIS kernel (or whatever it is), and apparently the kernel I have loaded doesn't have this. Any other options or is there I can get the RNDIS kernal on my Ally? Yes, I realize it requires an app. I'm asking for a free alternative and NOT a paid one.

I have a question for someone more tech savvy than myself. I am rooted and downgraded the Hboot because I was a leaker. ;-) I am wondering if it is possible to only update the Kernel and not flash a whole ROM? The reason I ask this is I would like to enable over clocking with just the stock Eris 2.1. Can you flash just a new Kernel?

this may not be possible yet but can 2.1 be rooted first of all and second is there a kernel i can replace the original with? I like the cyan roms but i just want the basic 2.1 with an updated 1.2 or 1.1 ghz kernel.

I am trying to update kernel fot HTC phone from 3.0.16 to 3.0.61 , as far as i know the theoretical procedure should be:
1) revert 3.0.16 to 3.0.0
2) update 3.0.0 to 3.0.61
and compile
my problem is wen i try to revert the patch with:
Code:
patch -i /pathtopatch/patch-3.0.16 -R -p1 --dry-run
it give me:
Code:
....
patching file drivers/tty/serial/pch_uart.c
patching file drivers/tty/serial/pxa.c
patching file drivers/tty/serial/serial_core.c
patching file drivers/hid/hid-core.c
Hunk #1 FAILED at 1340.
1 out of 4 hunks FAILED -- saving rejects to file drivers/hid/hid-core.c.rej
....
and
Code:
............
patching file drivers/usb/class/cdc-acm.c
patching file drivers/usb/class/usbtmc.c
patching file drivers/usb/core/config.c
patching file drivers/usb/core/devio.c
Unreversed patch detected! Ignore -R? [n] y
........
i think it is because HTC patch those files before. What those two fail messages means? and what is the right procedure to update kernel
