rubiX Focused 1.8.9/1.9.3

[Inkarnit]

Same thing here. Is that normal?

Other than that, so far so good. Thanks Drod

Sorry I want to bump this one more time.

Is it possible the install did not take? I want to know before I install Black Juice again.

It will report in about phone as 1.8.6. If you are unsure which version you have, you should be able to tell by the new transition animations. If you still can't tell, open a terminal and type:

su
cat /proc/sys/vm/dirty_ratio

If it comes back as 95, then you've got 1.8.9 loaded.

This was my answer to the question somewhere in the first 10 pages on how to check if you have 1.8.9 vs 1.8.6 and that it showing as 1.8.6 was normal.

I read probably 10 of the twenty pages and I saw it mentioned but never addressed as whether that was acceptable or not

Like I said, I didn't give you a hard time about it because it had been several pages since it was last mentioned. My issue was it being asked again right after you asked it.

There has been a lot of this recently...I got chastised earlier for telling people to read the OP and the read this first FAQ post.

Well I understand that people are new to this and want to learn all they can and make sure that their installations are going properly and that they don't mess up their phones. All this is understandable. To a certain extent, I expect to see the same questions multiple times even after they are answered because I know people don't want to read through all the pages and may not have realized that there was a FAQ thread at all. There is a search feature though that can be utilized, and just reading the previous 5 pages will USUALLY net you a response to your question. Or even the first 5 pages. The majority of questions about a new ROM are going to be asked in the very beginning.

What is your score? It should be 900-1000 after updating 1.8.9.

Should this work directly from my phone? I've tried dolphin and other browsers (set to desktop mode), but the file size it keeps downloading is like 8kb while it says it should be 79,858kb.

I could have sworn i've downloaded zip files from 2shared before without an issue.

You should be able to download directly to your phone (I did), but be sure nothing happens to interrupt the download (texts sometimes do this, phone calls, poor signal strength, etc) I've had incomplete files reported as download complete due to interruption...
I hope that helps...

yea hes right...drod said quadrant scores should be around 900-1000. People need to stop worry about Q scores...they dont mean much at all. This is the fastest, smoothest rom ive had with the DX (focused 1.8.9) its like if you start working out...u start lifting some serious weight and running...u might gain 10 pounds but lose 2 pant sizes. moral of the story is dont weigh yourself because its misleading. Q scores are like weighing yourself. You might be pissed you have low scores (gained 10 pounds) but the fact is you have a super fast and smooth rom that runs great (lost 2 pant sizes) :icon_ banana:

the download link is a little trick... DONT click the image that says download because that is an advertisement. The real link is kind of hidden on the bottom right of the box.

Its how they make their ads and i am trying to upload them to other mirrors.

You will see a bookmark and share toolbar... beside that says download 2shared something, but above that is the actual link to download the file.

if you are OCD like me, do the above command in adb shell or terminal, and if you get 95 you can use root explorer and edit /system/build.prop to be either 1.9.3 or 1.8.9 depending on which version you installed. (should be the 4th line down) after reboot the About Phone should show the proper version.

it's such a minor edit you shouldn't need the super busy and awesome drod to take out time to upload a patch just to change the version number.

Is this rom overclocked on bootup? It has rebooted on me twice so far.

 

[theidoctor]

no it shouldnt be... if anything he would have underclocked it.

 

[kyle4040]

download links are down for me

 

[theidoctor]

does anybody here have a copy of 1.9.3??? i would be happy to upload it for everyone or maybe they can upload it somewhere so the rom can get out.

if someone pms me, we can do it through drop box.
