    Change hostname, harder than anticipated

    Hmm, this doesn't seem to work... here's what I did mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /proc /proc echo ANDROID_EA102D43416E041D > newname /proc/sys/kernel/hostname Which yields the error "cannot create newame: read only filesystem". I also tried mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /proc /proc...

    O.o I'm not sure how I missed this... Thank you much, Watskyhotsky

    Change hostname, harder than anticipated

    Why: the learning experience, and a name that is easier on the eyes. I've been trying all day to discover how Android designates its hostname, (the name it has on a network). By default it is "ANDROID_<16 digit hexdecimal id>", and on all other Linux systems it is set in /system/etc/hosts...

    [MOD] Remap your hardware keys

    Thanks for your reply, I have found almost exactly what you've just wrote in several places, and I overlooked it all because it didn't seem to pertain to the topic, but I guess it did afterall. Hats off to AOSP, they've done something Nobody else seems to be able to (easily) do... Thanks...

    [MOD] Remap your hardware keys

    Thanks! I noticed one thing that aosp has is an option to bind the search key to an application of the users choice. How does it achieve this since there is no mention of initiating a script on the list of key events? Is it built-in to aosp, or gingerbread? I do see in a couple of posts...

    CPU speed freakout

    Well, it completely died for a few hours... not sure what happened.. the screen went black in the middle of an attempted fastboot restoration, then turned off and would not power on at all. I came back to it about half an hour ago to try turning it on, and it popped on! I used recovery to...

    CPU speed freakout

    I was running aosp, and did all changes to the clock speed with it in the performance settings screen. I've flashed it back on, and in the same place I changed the settings, it says max 600, and min 250, I have ammended them to 600/600, 806/806 480/480 and even 122/122 then back to 600/250...

    CPU speed freakout

    I mentioned in the OP that I restored the stock Rom and recovery. I only install system panel lite after flashing, but only after I see the major visual lag that occurs roughly 5 minutes after startup, just to check resource usage and processor speed.

    CPU speed freakout

    Ah, a post from "The Man" himself! An honor... thanks for the info, I was just finishing up part three of your research! I have flashed a different Rom twice now, harmonica, and the stock Rom, neither overclocmed, nor undedclocked, and am still experiencing the issue with it dropping to 122. I...

    CPU speed freakout

    So the chances of this being hardware failure are now high? I can't believe this happened... well at least it still runs.. god-awfully slow

    CPU speed freakout

    That makes more sense. I had it set "properly", and it was running fine at 480 for weeks, however this problem arose when I wasn't even touching the device. Even after complete wipes and Rom/kernel changes the problem still persists. Which makes zero sense since changing the kernel alone should...

    CPU speed freakout

    Why is the default set to 600/250? Wouldn't setting the minimum the same as max make the system constantly throttle high?

    CPU speed freakout

    Generally I do, but for troubleshooting purposes I have not used TB, and have left all apps but system panel lite uninstalled. I haven't downloaded anything but AntTek, which turned up clean

    What died and crawled up your ass? Re-read then re-write your post, then maybe ill talk to you.

    CPU speed freakout

    So I was running the latest aospcmod, had the CPU set to 480/122 for weeks now. Last night while listening to Pandora the audio became very choppy, and progressively became worse over 2 minutes or so, so I opened system panel lite and it was showing the Max speed on the cpu was 122MHz... I...
