[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joderme:
Dual cores are usually more power efficient as each core is running at a lower clock speed from what I have read. There are some other specifics that I cannot recollect at this point.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orcsbane13:
So just a random semi relevant question. If the EVO 3d is cdma & LTE as is rumored what would keep that phone from running on Verizon?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ksizzle9:
I dont see how the evo 3d wpuld possibly have LTE seeing ad how sprint hasnt put up the first LTE tower, or to my knowledge even bought any spectrum.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kendive:
Yea... I think it will get better... Look at all the custom roms for the incredible and what they did for battery life...

Hang in there and it will get better. I remember owning the DINC and not rooted but now it rocks.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] magneticzero:
i-den is going down and the future lte lies there
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1454:
what i saw is that it is not lte it is wimax. so no go for us.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sparta31:
This phone will be very experimental in my thought its the first of the 3d and the 3d in tv's is till iffy to me so I dont know how it will be on the phone
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1454:
Seems gimmicky to me. I don't understand why any one would want this in a phone. But to each their own. Anyway, I just wish we had DC for battery life, I could careless about benchmarks, etc. The 1Ghz does more than I need it to, but I would like it to be a little bit easier on this juice.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddemara:
I am considering the TB coming from a Windows HTC Imagio and just think it sucks that I would have to spend time shutting things down then bringing them back up just to save batt. life!! I haven't yet experienced an Android and just not ready to learn a new phone. Just getting sick of windows. Nothing out there for them.

BTW. Is there anyway to get Windows Media Player on the TB? I have never liked the Sense music player. You cant play an album from start to finish. At least I cant on my Imagio
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mb02:
How can you not play an album from start to finish on any Android phone's music app? This has never been an issue.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ERIFNOMI:
I get better battery life on my Thunderbolt than my Droid. So, this battery life thing isn't a universal problem. It has to do with 4G switching. Trying to connect to weak 4G signal and dropping back to 3G often is killing battery life. There isn't LTE where I live so I get great battery life.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1454:
Just look for some media player apps on the market. That's what I did. I think I use car tunes, but I would have to get my phone and confirm.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nerozehl:
Sprint uses WiMAX, not LTE.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1454:
Didn't I say that?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrisjm00:
When all the dual core phones hit, there will be quad core devices 6 months out, and these questions will be popping right back up. Staying ahead of technology is a losing battle. Something better will always be on the horizon. Get what you like now, in a year or two use your upgrade to get a dual core phone that has all the bugs worked out and has an Android os with apps and whatnot that are optimized for it. Besides, when you click something, it can only get so instant, and my TB @1.6 ghz is about as instant as I've ever had. I feel no need for dual core phones unless you're playing some intense games that need the extra horsepower. Just my .02.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andydumi:
When you say disabled lock screen, do you mean the one where you slide your finger across, or the password/pin/pattern type? And how did you do it, I have not been able to find the option.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ben7337:
1080p video streaming. That's what I look forward to, and the Tegra 2 can supposedly do it, though so can many other things, so I am waiting for Tegra 3 Kal-el. It is going to be quad core and available in phones around december this yr or early next yr. However I wouldn't necessarily expect phones to go beyond quad core for a while as cpu's in laptops and desktops are just now years later barely hitting 6 cores in consumer cpu's.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1454:
I don't care about it from a performance perspective, I just want it from a battery life prospective. That, and I only wanted to know from an HTC brand. I hate moto. The last two I have had have been horribly designed and extremely unreliable. Maybe it has just been my experience, but I will never buy another moto phone. HTC has always been great to me. first with the xv6800 refurb, then xv6875 now the TB. I have no complaints with HTC.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HorsexD:
Only good Streaming to Things like T.V or P.c Though. Maybe they will up the Resolution on newer phones later. As of now 720p and 1080p Videos dont really matter on our phones. :(
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1454:
Honestly, even if they could be that much pixel density in our screens, would it matter? I know the iTurds don't really have retina screens, but from what I understand, they are that far away. Eventually you get so small the human eye can't "see" where one pixel begins and another ends. So what would be the point in a true HD screen on a phone?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khanam:
both of the above comments are very well said. the craze to upgrade because something better is around the corner will always remain even if the difference is not discernible. the law of diminishing returns will apply
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MYxdaUSERNAME:
i <3 my thunderbolt, and i wont own another moto until they quit with the blur and locking out bull****...i'm only on a 1-year with the TB anyway, i think that means I can upgrade in 9 months? perfect..
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
yeah ive read articles saying there is no discernible difference between 720p an 1080p on a 32" or smaller tv, so how are you supposed to be able to tell the difference on a 10" or smaller screen? :) good point about being impossible to stay ahead of the times with technology... i finally accepted that a couple years ago
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] masInvasion:
Yea, and also tasks are performed quicker so processing takes less power bc its done faster, this is especially true with dual core optimized code
[Thunderbolt Android Development] rmk40:
This is actually relevant to more than just the Thunderbolt. It fixes Superuser problems with numerous newer Sense releases.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=886999

My su binary is already being provided via the root thread but the matching Superuser is not. Without the matching patched Superuser, you'll see FCs when apps request root if the Superuser app itself is open.

Just apply the update zip from the aforementioned thread to fix it. ROM builders should use my patched version as well.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jcase:
Please update to this, I will be fixing the tutorial as soon as I can, and noting it here.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] khanam:
Rafi, good to see you on the bolt. Looks like we will get a virtuous Rom too. Ran your Rom on the inc till I got run over by the desire z, hd craze.

Sent from my Thunderbolt!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] doodoostains:
Hmm, not sure if I should do this. I ran fix permissions in Rom Manager and it seemed to take care of all the problems. Everything's been working fine since then. What do you guys suggest?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jacobk:
i see no reason to mess with it if your set up is currently working
[Thunderbolt Android Development] NetworkPIMP:
I agree - however, in my case, nothing was solving the FC's - so I put in this SU and all is right with the world.

I think it's worth trying if all other permissions methods are failing - it certainly "feels" more stable.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jcase:
This fixes su issues while the superuser app is open.

Flash it.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] LeoD:
Thank you rmk & jcase
[Thunderbolt Android Development] RafficaX:
even aftere re rooting fix my su issue i ran this and i feel su runs wayyyyy smoother now for apps that need su.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] rmk40:
There is simply no way any newer Sense ROM works correctly without this patched version. You *will* ultimately encounter issues.

Don't believe me, try this. Open up the Superuser app itself, connect via adb shell, su system, su root. Observe hang. This is just an example, there are numerous other ways to have the issue occur.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] adrynalyne:
Good. maybe you can apologize now in the debloat rom thread instead of trying to smear my name. :)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] MYxdaUSERNAME:
can you just post it in here...i dont like guessing games...i see 2 links to pull requests on github...i dont know wtf that means. some of us dont speak computer 120% fluently..
[Thunderbolt Android Development] superchilpil:
Haha scroll down the page!! There's a flashable zip

sent from my Thunderbolt
[Thunderbolt Android Development] MYxdaUSERNAME:
for christ's sake...big blue letters. i thought that was the top of his sig..but he lost me at github.

good to go...i do remember a few force closes that never amounted to anything serious last night...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] evilmunkeh:
This was working for me until I rebooted. Once I did, everything was back to how it was.

I just applied the patch, restarted. VOILA! SU is working again. Thanks rmk40!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] frodsteamin2:
Superuser is acting up after working fine earlier. How can i boot into clockwork without rom manager anyone? thanks
[Thunderbolt Android Development] evilmunkeh:
Turn off phone. Hold volume down when booting up.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Ovrclck:
Was able to get into CWR after a reboot, flashed. Thank you! :)

Edit * this fixed all my issues. :D. Thanks again
[Thunderbolt Android Development] frodsteamin2:
Thank you for the response, my newbness was the problem as there was a file on sd card that keep trying to install when trying what you mentioned above.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Chris Hansen:
Still getting FC's in SU after flashing... Did I miss something?

Never mind, fixed after running a program that required root.

Thanks!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] TheDanimal:
Good, now you can have a seat over there. sorry, I couldn't resist.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] robdec17:
OK I rooted two days ago and now I see this. Whats the process for applying this patch? Rookie dummy steps please :)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Nmincredible:
First, I would like to thank all of your hard work...Got root. For those of you having issues on step three, this is what I did..Uninstall HTC sync, reboot computer then re run step three. i ran step three twenty times would not work, After uninstall of HTC sync worked first time
[Thunderbolt Android Development] adrianh85:
If u disable fast boot Su works great
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jadsru1:
This worked for me as well. Fixed SU and smooth sailing! you rock!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Drootz!:
X2 Process for us newb's

From reading this thread and the patch thread....what it seems like to me is we download the file rmk-superuser-v1.0.0 file rename it to update.zip, put on root of phone and apply update.zip via CWM? Is that correct it sounds to easy....
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Chris Hansen:
No need to rename it, just put it on your SD card, and then reboot into recovery. Choose install zip from SD card and locate the file. Do NOT wipe beforehand. Always make a backup before you install anything!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] djcyph:
how do u know if u need this or not?

i just rooted via the mac method...everything seems to be working except titanium backup, would this fix it?
[Nook Color General] macevanscb:
I've been running Nookie Froyo on a 4GB class 4 microSD card.

I just bought a tested 16GB class 10 card and have been trying to dupe the 4GB card to it.

I'm on a Mac and I used 'dd' to backup the 4GB card and clone it to the 16GB card. But the 16GB card won't boot.

To backup, I plugged the card into the Mac, dismounted all volumes in Disk Utility, and ran dd: dd if=/dev/disk2 of=/Volumes/MacHD/4gb.img

The I swapped cards and ran dd again: dd if=/Volumes/MacHD/4gb.img of=/dev/disk2

This appears to work perfectly and everything on the 16GB card looks good.

When I test boot the 16GB card, i get the usual two 'Loading...' prompts and then the 'android' with the flashing cursor stays on forever - I don't get the flashy 'android' logo that's supposed to follow. And if I swap the 4GB card back in, it works perfectly.

Are there any special args for 'dd' that I need to use??

From what I've been able to find in other posts, this should just work??
[Nook Color General] prafulrc:
sandisk 8gb micro sdhc bootable can not write using linux dd command.

i have sandisk micro sdhc class 4 card i am trying to write froyo noookie 6.8 image on it using ubuntu 10.04 desktop linux dd command.

i formated using my micro sd using HPUSB as well as Ubuntu Disk utility.

i tried ubunut usb-imagewriter after some time its give error and quit.

please tell me how write nookie froyo 6.8 image on it.

i am using micro sd writer name is "Enter FNK tech 0100"

8gb microsdhc - SDSDQM-008G-B35N

thank you
[Nook Color General] cshehan:
What error did you get when running dd?
[Nook Color General] khaytsus:
I have no idea what's going on in this thread.. :confused:

Anyway, to answer the original topic...

Put in your card, find out which device it is, substitute it here. dmesg will tell you

dd if=/dev/device of=sd.img

Take your card out when it's done, put in the other card, run this, again replacing with the actual device being used

dd if=sd.img of=/dev/device

It's that simple. If they're the same size it should be fine, if the second one is larger you'll probably want to resize partitions to take advantage of the extra space, as it will be unused.
[Nook Color General] macevanscb:
Still no joy

Khaytsus ... what you describe is almost exactly what I did.

But, just to make sure, I did *exactly* as you described ... writing the img file to my home directory instead of somewhere else.

But that made no difference. The 16GB card still doesn't get all the way thru the boot. As before, I see the two 'Loading' prompts, then the word 'android' in small blue courier characters with the flashing cursor. It sits like this forever ... until I shut it off ... sigh

There must be some difference between a 4GB and 16GB card ... block size or something ... that I have to account for in dd.
[Nook Color General] computercarl:
There have been multiple reports of 16gb cards just not working. I've also read plenty of reports of Class 10 cards not working. I have a class 8 16gb in my NC right now, and it works fine.
[Nook Color General] danger-rat:
Just do it through recovery...
[Nook Color General] khaytsus:
Did you try creating a NEW image on the 16g card? I bet it is just too SLOW. If it's too slow it'll never finish booting.
[Nook Color General] macevanscb:
Its the card ....

computercarl set me off in a different direction.

I had a Class 2 16GB card laying around ... so I dd'ed it with the image ... and it worked ... albeit somewhat slower than the Class 4 4GB card I've been using.

So I guess there is a compatibility problem with some Class 10 cards??

Just too fast for the NC interface???

I'll have to get a Class 6 16GB card and see how well it does.
[Nook Color General] macevanscb:
Class 8 16GB Card????

computercarl .... where did you get your Class 8 card???

I've searched around and they're really hard to find.
[Nook Color General] computercarl:
It came in my bosses Droid. I swapped it out for a class 2 4gb, and she never knew ;) (Not a techie kinda person, as long as her email and calendar worked...)

And sorry, guess I lied. It's only a class 6. Google/Newegg says

http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&Depa=0&Order=BESTMATCH&Description=16gb microsd class 6 has some really good ones for not too much.
[Nook Color General] khaytsus:
So is this a Patriot 16G class 10? If so, that's why you are having problems.
[Nook Color General] macevanscb:
Its definitely not a Patriot ... actually there's no brand name on the front at all.

I had read about all the knockoff cards out there .... most of them are Transcend cards. I bought it on eBay ... here's the text of the auction:

16GB CLASS 10 MICRO SDHC MEMORY CARD OEM REAL CAPACITY GUARANTEED

* BRAND NEW CLASS 10 16GB OEM MICROSD CARD WITH ADAPTOR - MADE IN KOREA

* TESTED WITH WRITE SPEED 11.1 MB/SEC, READ SPEED 16.2 MB/SEC

* EFFECTIVE USABLE CAPCITY 14.9 GB

* CLASS 10 GUARANTEES MINIMUM SPEED 10 MB/SEC

* BID WITH CONFIDENCE REAL CAPACITY AND TESTED -- MONEY BACK GUARANTEE

* CAN BE USED WITH ANY SD SLOT DEVICES INCLUDING DIGITAL CAMERAS, MP3 PLAYERS, PDA'S AND MOBILE PHONES

* NOT ALL DEVICES SUPPORT MICROSDHC CARDS. PLEASE CONTACT YOUR DEVICE MANUFACTURER FOR DETAILS

* NEW IN BLISTER PACKAGING ( PACKAGE MIGHT BE OPENED FOR TESTING THE CARD)

I've sent the seller an email asking what brand it is.

While my original purpose here is to move from a 4GB to a 16GB card, I would like to get something faster than the class 4 I'm using right now.

So maybe I should go ahead and get a Class 6 16GB card. Or does any one have any specific recommendations for a working class 10 16GB card??

Does anyone know what the performance difference would be between class 4, class 6 and class 10 cards on the NC???

Or any recommendations for going with a specific brand such as Lexar??
[Nook Color General] danger-rat:
I would say you won't see a performance difference between a class 6 and a class 10...

[Droid Incredible Android Development] alanthemanofchicago:
First off, you must understand:

NONE OF THIS IS MY OWN WORK UNLESS MARKED:

I am running a (im-ns-ho) AWESOME theme + rom combo

I love the Droid X, and love the Ninjablur look

Now, I know that jdkoreclipse published a testing-version of Ninjablur for Incredible, but it is almost UNUSABLE.

Here you go:

To download the files, check my shared MediaFire folder: link

For the launcher, I use HElauncher, FOR NOW: find on market and set up to use Ninja or Blur setting.

I am awaiting response from HandlerExploit to integrate it into the ROM.

For lockscreen - Droid 2 Metamorph (Also in the folder)

CREDITS:

CyanogenMod team for the base rom

HandlerExploit for HElauncher

Droid*Life people for the Lockscreen

Google for the GAPPS

HTC for making an AWESOME phone

And all others (PM me if you want to be added)

Screenshots in a day.

Now, the part that is MY work:

In a day or two, I will post two things:

A PB31IMG with a Splash1 of my HTC + Verizon + Snapdragon i posted awhile back.

**UPDATE**

I have been having some problems encoding the images (NBIMG issues)

And, a reworked Atrix 4G bootscreen, with a VZW animation at the end, instead of the AT&T one. But, sometimes, due to rapid rom boot time, you cannot see the VZW part, because boot finishes first.

OVERCLOCKS WELL WITH ZIGGY'S LATEST KERNEL
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wdfowty:
Good luck with the rom.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] davwman:
I'm confused. Are you providing links to the theme only? Because technically this belongs in themes then. Also post some screenshots for a better idea. I would love to use cm6.1 but for some reason I have weird connectivity issues with Sirius app last time I used it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ACD168:
Id update to CM7 RC2.....
[Droid Incredible Android Development] alanthemanofchicago:
When I get the time, I will build the theme and the d2 lockscreen into the rom. (Then it will fit in here, right?) And, I am thinking about a CM7 RCx version, but it does oddball stuff to my music, so I will fix what I have first. I have updated the OP with this, and the GAPPS link. ETA of 1-2 days depending on schoolwork.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] alanthemanofchicago:
UPDATE - 12:30 Tuesday

Thanks, man.

What do you use now? Possibly, when I finish this, if it is AOSP, I could port?

Working on it... get this part done first!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] davwman:
Downloading now. Let you know how it goes.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] davwman:

nevermind i was able to figure out the ROM in about 3 mins.

its stable..thats the truth..just a bit too outdated for my blood. on the lookout for updates
[Droid Incredible Android Development] alanthemanofchicago:
UPDATE

Numero Uno:

I am testing a patch that replaces the stock Music app with the Honeycomb version or the Connected Music App from Motorola (Provides a BLUR-ish widget) PM me if interested

Numero Dos:

SLCD has unknown results with the music apps, so indicate in your PM.

Numero Tres:

If you are having issues, try Amon RA 1.8.1. Its the official recovery of Nascar.

Thanks in advance,
[Droid Incredible Android Development] TheIncredibleJ:

I would try booting into open recovery & wiping the dalvik-cache & the cache partition.
[Milestone XT720 General] alex0329:
I know youve helped out a lot already, but do you think you could list the steps on flashing wanteds rom just so I know I did it right? Id really appreciate it.

I will nandroid restore all then wipe the dalvik cache twice & do the wipe data / factory reset twice & reboot. If it doesn't work the first time I would try the whole process over again.
