You are an evo guru haha. Thanks again for the speedy response. I actually go to bed with the battery around 60 percent battery life and when i wake up its usually around 50-42 percent battery life. I am gonna look for the latest savagedzen kernel and see if it is compatable with gingerbread rom.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dirkyd3rk:
Glad to help! Lol nah just an android lover with a few years of skills/knowledge; but here's the link to the savagezen. It is compatible with 2.3 I'm using it now. The latest version is the 1.1.0. Give this kernel a shot.

flashing it as we speak... I am hoping this works

EDIT: how do i make sure the sbc is on with this kernel? and if it is not on how do i turn it on? thanks for the advice in advance
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dirkyd3rk:
Hope it does, make sure you ran the GB version, I believe they have a froyo version also. Check in settings.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jiggajoe506:
I am still getting the problem but here is what my about my phone looks like in the settings and I am not sure if you need to know anything else about my phone
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dirkyd3rk:
You gotta be kidding! Maybe its the new miui update man, sheesh I'm running out of ideas. It could be a miui issues as I haven't ran into this on another rom :-(
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jiggajoe506:
it really sucks that it is probably an miui rom because this is the best rom i have used. It does everything you need and more. simple but favorite feature is that when you get a new contact is saved it shows that you saved a new contact in the recent calls which has saved me numerous times after drunk nights. Maybe you can recommend a rom that is similar to miui? Thanks for all the work you put in for me.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dirkyd3rk:
I loved miui also but just way to many bugs for me man. This is your best bet. Also that same kernel you downloaded is the same one you'd run on this rom.

I hear you brother its amazing minus the many bugs (some making it impossible to use). When fixing the gps on cm7 should i flash my nand of fresh first, do the steps described in the thread then wipe everything then do a fresh flash of cm7?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scott951:
they put a now sbc kernel in this weeks build that is the issue. just download kernel manager and flash the latest tiamat sbc works great..

have been running all day and still over 90%

That's the one that was giving him the issues I believe, and you you flash the fresh nandroid then back. You might not have to!
[Nook Color General] BlackHoleSlam:
Hey guys I got a question ever time I turn off out reboot my nook

It sets the density gets set back to 161 when I have it set to 220 i used lcd density and that wouldn't save my chosen density.then I bought lcd density changer and I hit save at 220 and it says saved but it doesn't stay that way once it reboots or shuts off any help
[Nook Color General] kendoori:
I found that I needed to change this in build.prop file for it to be permanent. This was easily done with Root Explorer
[Nook Color General] BlackHoleSlam:
EDIT found it on my phone once I get home ok will do it thanks
[Nook Color General] frobthebuilder:
Actually, while in the lcd density changer app, you have to press menu, then go to "save density as system density", then it should do it.
[Nook Color General] BlackHoleSlam:
well i feel stupid thanks for that

Hi..

I'm having problems with modifying the dock on my galaxy tab.

the device have only 3 iocns on the dock, so it's kind of inconvenient to use it

I have tried many ways to fix it, but i didn't work.

Does anybody know how to fix the code?

I think I have to change lancher.xml

please help me~

I include files from my galaxy tab
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zolah:
My computer is running a bit crappy lately so im thinking of wiping it and starting from scratch...

Im currently running Darkyy's V10 RC3 on my device...

My question is if a wipe my computer obviously it will remove my drivers from kies etc.

So when i plug my V10 RC3 SGS into my computer after i redownload kies will it recognise my device still as it isnt running "official" FW.

Or do you think i will have to flash back to stock before wiping my computer.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ehtoeh:
No need to flash back to stock. After installing kies and connecting the phone to the computer it will install drivers again.
[Desire HD Android Development] theintelligent:
I have found this hack in the Thunderbolt android development thread in some ROM, so I decided to shared with you guys :)

- Download the attached file. Unzip the file.

- Push the unzipped file in xbin

adb push uber_quadrant /system/xbin

adb shell chmod 755 /system/xbin/uber_quadrant

- Install Quadrant (Advanced or Basic)

- Execute the pushed file.

adb shell /system/xbin/uber_quadrant

- Run Quadrant and be amazed by the score.

Mine is attached :) without any overclocking.
[Desire HD Android Development] Aliq:
What does this actually do?
[Desire HD Android Development] theintelligent:
It hacks the application and gives you amazing scores.

Try it out
[Desire HD Android Development] hoseth0711:
Yeah but it isn't useful in any other way, because its not the real score..
[Desire HD Android Development] jkoljo:
2271 without OC? That is how it is supposed to perform, a fully stock DHD can do that.
[Desire HD Android Development] capychimp:
just shows how little value benchmarking has ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] theintelligent:
Yes exactly that is the point, these benchmarks should not measure performance of any ROM rather its usability should be the judge.
[Desire HD Android Development] MrYuiM:
This is what is in the file:
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
why does it shows this? i see absolutely no relation to benchmarking. this is faking results. benchmarking is an objective messure of a speciffic (or a range of specific) performance aspects. in fact benchmarking is the only way to messure improvement.

the problem rarely lies wihtin benchmarking but most time at the user that does not understand the benchmark and false concludes from the results.

but in this case this has absolutely nothing to do with the often heared critics about benchmarks.

edit: the script that gets executed simply tricks the io system benchmark.
[Desire HD Android Development] pokerfreakje:
LOL true story.

before i flashed mines, i had 2250 score with stock rom.
[Desire HD Android Development] lukesky:
hmm, threadstarter self pwn with this thread?:D
[Desire HD Android Development] dlads:
Overclocked or not, that scores weak my friend, i've had my dhd get over 3000 OC'd.

For whatever reason the advanced quadrant gives you better scores, however neither of them offer an actual reallife score which means your phone still runs the same, kind of pointless, no offence. :)
[Desire HD Android Development] CitizenLee:
I've never really understood the fascination with benchmarks so excuse my ignorance, but is this not like writing 300mph on the speedo in your car and then getting all excited when the needle hits it? :confused:
[Desire HD Android Development] AdrianM:
True!

I don't see the point of benchmarking. So, I really don't see the point in faking IT!
[Desire HD Android Development] fatthumb:
Lol, this is still a good thread to laugh ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] berek9999:
Exactly! There are some very sad people about.
[Desire HD Android Development] swehbe:
my DHD hardly reaches 1350 with Quadrant standard (stock rom), i wonder how some ppl are achieving 2500 with stock...
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
2500 is not possible with stock...

anyway, to get 2000 and a bit above you have to switch the cpu governor to performance. to do this you need root and setcpu. with the default ondemand governor this is not possible.

but do not keep performance governor for daily use! it keeps your cpu freq at max all the time.
[Desire HD Android Development] LeeDroid:
Lmao! That's hilarious! :p

Sent from me LeeDrOiD loaded Desire HD using the Android XDA Premium app
[Desire HD Android Development] ivolol:
You should get a new rom!

My DHD just did 2534 using LeeDroid's kernel at 1.2ghz

'Amazing' doesn't really belong in the title of this thread.
[Desire HD Android Development] aavan:
Mine reach 1600 on Stock :(
[Desire HD Android Development] CitizenLee:
There you go, you now have the fastest DHD on earth.

All I did was fake your score, much like the purpose of this thread ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] LorD ClockaN:
What a trolling thred...

I'm in!! LOL
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
sorry, but what exactly is the use of this answer on your cite?

he wondered about 2500 score on STOCK, and not overclocked to 1.2 with (probably) io performance patch (which in fact does a similar trick like this one in the op - but omitting flushing at least some real life benefits).
[Desire HD Android Development] adwinp:
What's the point of the cheat?

You're just mounting the quadrant data folder in tmpfs so as to cheat the file read/write tests, artificially thus increasing your score.
[Desire HD Android Development] jkoljo:
Showing off? Much like some people like to use the brain **** scheduler.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
how you can show off with bfs? it had the very same benchmark results for me but increased lagginess in practice.
[Desire HD Android Development] jkoljo:
Well, properly configured it allows you to hit over 3500, maybe 4000 in quadrant. With OC, of course.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
bfs is called bft because there is nothing to configure! exactly THIS is the supposed to be advantage over cfs - less to tweak/adjust to the underlying system.

with the same oc you will (i guess, cause i did) hit the same score with cfs.

what exactly do you mean by configuring bfs? only cfs has configurable parameters.
[Desire HD Android Development] Router:
Thumbs up. many of us know how to forge the results, few - how to improve performance. waste of time and space, indeed.
[Desire HD Android Development] TronC:
Mine reaches OVER 9000!!! (with paint)
[Desire HD Android Development] theintelligent:
Guys guys, I think you are missing the point here. The point is benchmarks can be misleading so of you want to feel real performance then everyday is of the ROM will be sufficient. Most of the ROM cookers and users use this benchmarks as reference points. This script shows that you can trick a benchmark program :)

So I think you all got my point.
[Desire HD Android Development] espressofrap:
Yes. The point is that quadrant data isn't entirely reliable since it can be tweaked or hacked by any john doe. Rely more on ur judgement on how fast a rom is.

Sent from my DHD using...
[Desire HD Android Development] kendong2:
you're two days late buddy. also not really funny, but that might be just me. glad to see more people get the point in how astronomically overrated benchmarks are.

somehow reminds me of the photo forum, some people are obsessed with the sharpness of their lenses and cams, so they spend hours of shooting laminated focus charts, batteries and toy figurines in their livingroom. yeah that's what i bought a $3k dslr for, shooting BS in my livingroom... btt: if you want to score benchmarks buy a supercomputer, not a smartphone.

oh yeah, and i bet someone could hack quadrant to change the decimal of the result, so it would make your phones TEN TIMES FASTER! :p

So last night all I did was change the main gmail user on my phone (since verizon gave me some generic one) to the one I always use anyway and now my phone is a mess. All my apps force close, Clockwork Mod has stopped working (I select an option and I get nothing but a black screen but if I hit the power button the main menu shows back up right away), half of my contacts are missing, and I'm beside myself with what went wrong....if Clockwork Mod and ROM Manager both don't work....am I screwed?

Thanks in advance.

EDIT: I should note I am rooted, running a stock kernel, and Redemption ROM.
[Droid Incredible General] AlmostTactful:
Alright so I had success in re-running Unrevoked3 and it updated the Clockworkmod from version 2.5.0.5 to 2.5.1.2 however it still isn't doing anything when I tell it to install the zip file for the new ROM from the SD card. Also my apps are still crashing as soon as they open so ROM Manager is a no go...any help would be epic.
[Droid Incredible General] AlmostTactful:
I'm a d*mn moron....I was clicking the power button to select an option in Clockworkmod so I was putting it to sleep rather than pressing the trackball and actually selecting the option....this is what I get for doing this on a sunday....Redemption Rom 2.4 is installing now....lets hope it fixes the problem.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kawika:
thats really odd.... when you insert the sdcard can you feel the spring engage?:confused: does the lock engage?:confused:(feel a little click after spring is compressed)? do you unmount the external_sdcard often? maybe things have just worn down....(i've only removed the sdcard a few times stepped up from the 2G, to a 8G, currently patriot class10 16G) but never had any problems with any external_sdcard staying in place.

take that bad boy apart!! its just some phillips screws:D i imagine its just a spring issue. I was gonna do the "hardware GPS fix" tonight so i'll take a look at the setup while im in there if there isn't a fix posted by then.:)

namadrider123 is correct it sounds like a easy phone replacement from tmobile that should be the #1 fix option for this problem (or any hardware problem for that matter) always attempt to get hardware defects replaced under warranty before you go messing with stuff yourself:D (good rule of thumb!)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ameedi600:
It holds it sometimes but the little click thing isn't holding it. For now it is but if I take it out it will be hard to push it back in.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] metalfan78:

Arc v Optimus 2x

Interesting watch, have no idea what the guys saying, but the Arc kicks butt on video playback... which suprised me, Arc also wins on music play back too i feel

can anyone translate roughly what this guy is saying?

youtube.com/watch?v=U2ai0SMtkg0&feature=related
[Xperia Arc General] Wishmaster89:
Optimus 2X acts as if it was playing it in software mode where Arc was clearly using hardware acceleration.

It's interesting considering that Optimus 2X was using inbuilt video player which has all needed hardware 'connections' and it can even display 1080p so could it be that that FF movie was using higher profile than LG can handle?
[Xperia Arc General] vegetaleb:
As I understood from reviews:

Optimus 2x is better in:

-Rooted

-Custom roms quality like Modaco

-Speed thanks to dual core

Se Arc is better in:

-Design

-Sound is louder

-Camera

-Screen is better under sunlight

-Resale a year later because SE has a better reputation than LG
[Xperia Arc General] Bwyan Benton:
Just watched a video of the optimus 2x 1080p video recording. First impressions: not impressed at all considering its 1080p.

Anyways, id take the Arc hands down.
[Xperia Arc General] trickyhenry:
Just sold my 2x in favour of the arc. Only issue is the cheap plastics SE use. 2x has small screen for the size of phone but lovely build and materials.
[Xperia Arc General] StickyGeko:
what made u change from the 2x to arc???
[Xperia Arc General] MJ_QaT:
while you may think it's cheap, it's not... it's high quality plastic to reduce costs :)
[Xperia Arc General] im_iceman:
+1.. plastic.. but good quality... makes the phone more durable.
[Xperia Arc General] vegetaleb:
What made me buy SE phones for years was the high quality materials used, even if plastic and rubber, I have only good memories of K800,C905,Aino...

The N1 is from same grade of materials.

The Arc remembers me of the sony A805 walkman I had...same high class plastic and design!

Optimus 2x back is ugly and the fake aluminium strip paint will tear off in a while or get lot of scratches
[Xperia Arc General] Surethom:
I believe the Optimus is not running Android 2.3 yet??? so cannot use the Dual core fully but when Android update it will to optimized so will run faster!! But with no led notification light, the arc is for me, even if it is in a STUPID place on the side & not on the front.

:D
[Xperia Arc General] StickyGeko:
is that a notification light? i thought was just the charging light indicator.... i havent yet got the arc btw
[Xperia Arc General] vegetaleb:
Another thing that the Arc has more than 2X is the hardware buttons that can be used to wake the phone instead of using the power button, just like the Tb wake feature on N1 :p

I wonder if you can use buttons lights for miss call alerts too :rolleyes:
[Xperia Arc General] StickyGeko:
arc v optimus 2x v incredible s

my 1 reservation about the arc is the browser, it isnt smooth, see the vid below, when i tried it in the three store it was the same, can this be fixed? whats causing it? wish it was smooth, how do you guys find the browser

youtube.com/watch?v=7aN6O4rvQ44
[Xperia Arc General] Surethom:
Apparently! yes the charger LED light is also a LED notification light. :D
[Xperia Arc General] StickyGeko:
yay lol, i aint really allow my phone on at work, but its usually within sight (next to my tower) and having a notification light is a saviour, only check the phone when i see it blinking, was afraid the arc wouldnt have this

can any1 with an arc confirm that the led above the charge port is infact a notication light too?
[Xperia Arc General] vegetaleb:
You have tons of free internet browser and better than stock one in the Android market
[Xperia Arc General] TheAptPupil:
for example: opera and skyfire both support flash, but Opera supports file uploads and ftp connections
[Xperia Arc General] im_iceman:
I've used the stock browser for a few days and it was fine.. no problems at all.. that said - I've gone back to Dolphin HD which I used on X10.. just love their UI.
[Xperia Arc General] vegetaleb:
I think the only real advantage of the Optimus 2x today over the Arc is that it's already rooted and that lot of brave devs are beginnign to work on it.

For the Arc it ''should'' be rooted when mr SE decide to do it, it can be tomorrow morning as it can be in June, dunno if lot of devs will be interested since the X10 gave them a bad experience
[Xperia Arc General] im_iceman:
Gotta be honest.. This phone is so good I can't see me wanting to root it!

Just took arc back. Rebooting issues. Longer I had it the more I liked it. Nice to see the launcher gas been ripped out!!
[Xperia Arc General] im_iceman:
you not swapped it for one which wasn't broken then?
[Xperia Arc General] Step666:
I'm sure I read the other day that the Dolphin browser is just the stock browser with a different front-end.

Rooting is a must IMO - to get rid of the adverts and be able to use Titanium Backup.
[Xperia Arc General] vegetaleb:
Once it's confirmed by devs that the Arc is unlocked (already 2 dudes here) it will be rooted in no time, and the dev section with 6 threads now will be with 60 after 24h :D
[Xperia Arc General] evooo:
same haha its pretty stupid to have the led blinker on the side, hahah

but arc beat everything the 2x has except the dual core, i love how the arc stays on my hand

and love the arc because it give u soo much comfort when u hold it landscape to use the virtual keyboard on the dazzling 4.2 sony screen (that i think whipped iphone4's screen, but some what similar to samsung led screens)

my gf actually give up on her ip4 for the arc haha
[Xperia Arc General] StickyGeko:
LG are in my works canteen today showing off the LG 2x, should be the lg 2zzzzz, im so glad i went with the ARC the 2zzz is slow in scrolling YUK, screen is no where near as crisp or clear or vibrant, its very nice in the hand, nice weight, but no where near as nice to look at or hold as my ARC, the 2x has a front facing camera... not bothered no1 i know uses them and if i need skype i use my laptop, 2x has dual core... so what, my arc gaming wise is great, video playback is smoother than the 2x, internet is quicker on the 2x... but not enought for me to say wow its seconds if that scrolling around the websites is smooth with 2x but i get just as smooth scrolling in dolphin or opera, and my arcs camera kicks the 2x's into touch, the battery on the lg is terrible too, i was wondering before today if i made the right choice... but now my doubts have been put to sleep
