I have had a serious issue for me with Caulkins rom. I play with emulators all the time especially CPS2HD.

I use WiiMotecontroller to link my classic wirless controller to my GTAB via bluetooth.

I was recently on TNT Lite and oppted to try out Caulkins. Caulkins is fast and great but freezes everytime I use Wiimotecontroller to try and play roms.

I turn on the bluetooth and link my controller and Poof,,, freezes and have to reboot.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks, Rob

OK guys I am having trouble flashing a custom rom .zip from my Sd card so i started looking into other ways. I am a noob at this so please tell me if i am way over my head with trying this. Can anyone tell me if this is right or will work? I think that a FTF is the only file form that can be flashed using Bin4ry's 2.9.1 flashtool but alot of the roms are .RAR files. can i use WinRar to extract the roms to my firmware folder and try to flash over my 2.1.A.0.435 generic? again please tell me if i am going to destroy my X10a. and while i am here does anyone have any idea what the detailed steps are to flash from Sd card using Xrecovery? Do i extract the zip while the phone is mounted or not. I have found instructions but they leave out atleast 2 steps once in Xrecovery. Any help would be great.:o
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j.anderson618:
You have to make a bundled creation in options
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gil2004xp:
FTF Files are those decrypted firmwares/baseband (placed in firmwares folder in your PC)that can be flashed on to your phone using Flashtool, if you want to install custom ROMS, no need to extract them. Just place on your sdcard, reboot into xRecovery and then install custom zip (locate where you save ROM file). Be sure to follow every detailed instructions where you got your ROM ;)

[A7 General] The SofaKing:
hi folks.. I have a couple questions.

1. Can I tether (via USB) my A7 to my non-rooted Sprint evo.. if so what tethering app do I use?

2. I have a Verizon USB 3g modem... can I use it with my tablet? What program do I use?

Thanks all keep up the great work..
[A7 General] netstat_EVO:
No on both counts.
[A7 General] The SofaKing:
So.... rooting my evo.. I love it as it is.. how much better is it rooted.. I am tempted because of free WiFi... but from a functional stand point it is pretty good stock..
[A7 General] netstat_EVO:
I rooted mine with unrevoked3.

The biggest reason I did it was for wifi tethering.

root + Wireless Tether (available from market) = joy

If you are not going to be running custom roms and such, the only difference you will notice is an app called "Superuser Permissions" in your app drawer... And the superficial feeling of superiority over most other (normal) Evo users due to the fact that your phone now does what you want, and theirs still doesn't :)

Edit:

after rooting, only use the tether app for tethering and DO NOT use the HotSpot app that came with the phone. That is, unless you actually want to pay Sprint $30 extra a month to actually be able to use your "unlimited" data plan.
[Droid Eris Android Development] decepticon:
My daughter's friend locked her out of her Eris today by setting an unlock pattern and she doesn't remember her Google password.

I figured I would just load a custom rom, wipe, and reinstall but I can't install a custom recovery or even have a recovery menu to flash the stock rom.

Without being able to get into the phone, are we pretty much SOL?

[Droid Eris Android Development] tburns:
Root the phone and flash a rom. But getting the needed files on ur phone you'll have to access the SD card some other way. Or install one of the old 2.1 leaked roms.
[Droid Eris Android Development] wildstang83:
Just reset her Google password from a computer. As far as the pattern goes, just keep drawing patterns until the phone unlocks.

After installing Superclean 2.9.2v, 3G Hotspot and Allshare still seem to be in the apps drawer. I thought flashing this rom would remove all VZW bloatware. Was my wipe incomplete? I did a full wipe 3 times ebfore flashing.

Also, I installed flash 10.2 from the market and still cannot seem to get flash media to work. It always asks me to enable or download the latest update.

Lastly, I cannot get any wifi tethering to work using Wireless Tether.

Should all of these be working right out of the box, sans 3g hotspot and allshare from verizon?

what can i do about it brothers ? do profiles make the phone go a lil slower by putting this >>1.2ghz- 100 mhz scaling on conservative..it goes slower by this right ??
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xriderx66:
Recondition.

Drain to 0% till it doesn't turn on.

Charge while its off.

charge til 100% still connected get to recovery mode.

Go to advanced

Wipe battery stats.

Reboot.

Done

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xriderx66:
No problem, all this does for you is makes your battery readings more accurate.

also, for most doing that once won't give you TOO real effect.

So after you do that, redo it once more, when you have time, and it should be good.

Flashing roms at 100% usually works best from beginning.

[Epic 4G Android Development] megabillzilla:
Your tireless work is very much appreciated.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MikeyLee:
I've flashed twice and still says I am on EB13. Will this not work with other ROMS?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Koadic:
Well, looking at the script, it checks a variable in the build.prop of the rom (located in the system folder) to see what it should update, so I guess it depends on if the rom is based on EB13, or if it is based on a newer/older version.

If, say for instance, the rom is based on DK28 (or EC05), even though the modem is EB13 (possibly updated through Odin, or even from stock EB13), the script will see your phone having the DK28 (or EC05) modem and not update it.

The only way I see to get by this is if the script is altered to check for a DI18 rom, and flash the DI18->EC05 update; and if it isn't a DI18 rom, assume it has the EB13 modem and flash the EB13->EC05 update. In which case, if the phone doesn't have the EB13 modem, it wouldn't work anyway (right?), and no harm done.

So, if this is your case, I would try flashing the other, specific, EB13->EC05 modem update.zip.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MikeyLee:
I'm running Viper Synergy which is an EB13 ROM but I did flash the other EB13 to EC05 modem zip and it's now showing correct in my About Phone :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] HeroMeng:
Is there any way to get from DK28 modem to EC05 without Odin? I don't have access to any computers that run Odin or Heimdall correctly.
[Epic 4G Android Development] chris41g:
yes i just posted a cwm zip that will update it using redbend_ua
[Epic 4G Android Development] CrfEpic4g:
Does this also work with EXT4??
[Epic 4G Android Development] Koadic:
I believe it doesn't make a difference if running rfs or ext4, as this upgrades/patches the modem while in CWM. But, in your case (running ext4), you have to be running an EB13 rom with the EB13 modem for it to work.

I travel to Canada a bunch and never use data because of the price. I'll normally find a hotspot and use that. On my Droid Incredible, I just left never enabled Data Roaming...and never had any issues.

The other day with my thunderbolt... I turned on my phone and it just started downloading emails and such. I tried changing the Data Roaming setting back and forth and it seems to do nothing.

Anyone experience this?

I'm obivously going to call Verizon when I get my bill because I'm not paying a dime for the roaming data.

[Thunderbolt General] gbruyn:
Not INTERNATIONALLY they dont!
[Thunderbolt General] Zshazz:
I would highly recommend calling them before you get your bill. Notify them of the problem as soon as possible and I don't see how they could hold you liable for the charges. If you hold back, it could be interpreted as an attempt to get free roaming data.

Oh ... and until they fix it, you could toggle mobile data entirely while you're in Canada.

[General Accessories] akira de aimbuster:
Hi guys, I have a few questions about micro SD:

1) Does higher class drain more battery?

2) I just purchased a LG optimus 2x, is a class 6 enough for me? or do I need to go all the way to class 10?

3) Will higher class cause lagness to the phone?

Thanks guys :D
[General Accessories] zarathustrax:
1. From what I've seen, it seems some higher class cards drain battery more... I think the brand and quality of chips make more difference with battery, though.

2. Is class 6 enough for what? What are you using the card for? If it's strictly for taking pictures or videos, or transferring large files, or other tasks that you only need sequential write and reading, then higher class would be quicker for that. But class 6 is pretty quick with sequential reading/writing... it's up to you if you need higher. What are you using the card for?

3. Yes, higher class cards can cause lagness if you have apps or OS files on it, or if the phone is trying to access many different parts of the card quickly. Generally, for using with a phone, you will get better performance with class 2 or 4 cards. Higher class cards generally have slower access times and slower random access speed and random read and write speeds. Class 6 and 10 are better for digital cameras, or for transferring large files, but for use with a phone, where you may run apps off it or have the OS trying to access many bits of data from different parts of card, class 2 or 4 usually perform better there.
[General Accessories] me00016:
Can it be true; I suspect the "slower access times and slower random access speed and random read and write speeds" coming from higher class (10) microsd cards have to do also with bad quality, cheap (see chinese) chips that hit the market with the class 10 hoax. I hope "serious" manufacturers will produce cards that could achieve not only sequential, but also satisfactory random speeds.
[General Accessories] cc2f:
Are there any sites that rank microSD cards based on random access time?

THG has some data for miniSD cards but most other sites have scattered reviews and no direct ranking.
[General Accessories] zarathustrax:
Well there are quality cards that do good at both... a Sandisk class 4 is one of the best all around I've seen. It pretty much gets class 6 sequential write speeds, and still has great access time and random speeds.

But the lag cause by class 10's and 6 isn't only because of low quality... it's caused because the higher class chips are designed to initialize the part of the card it's about to use, which gives much better sequential speeds, but hurts the access time and random read and write where many parts of the chip are accessed quickly getting small bits of info in many different parts. In this case, the initialization that the chip is doing causes it to take much longer, as it still initializes each part before accessing it. That extra step it's doing adds up to a lot of extra time when its using lots of random parts of the chip to read or write only a small bit of data.

Cards that don't do this initialization and just begin accessing immediately is obviously going to be quicker when using many different parts of card.
[General Accessories] akira de aimbuster:
Most probably I will dump everything into the card, reading games from it, using gps with map files inside the sd...etc. So I guess a class 6 is sufficient. But now people are telling me even class 4 is sufficient, while some say that they observed huge different from class4 vs class 6, I got confused :rolleyes:

May I know if android is using sequential access or random access? Or is it depends on the software?
[General Accessories] me00016:
I'm confused too, after 2 months trying to find the optimum 32gb microsd for my SGS. Well, the thing gets complicated (especially for 32gb capacities) because of many reasons:

- Inconsistent quality assurance-high percentage of defect cards, sometimes of the same lot, even from top brands. This could be not only a non working card, but also small but critical problems like write failure, freeze, etc.

- Users, we don't know what we want microsd for; surely we all want to upgrade the memory of our phones, but it seems that others don't like to wait long transfering 1080p movies in the device, others want to use app2sd with android. I've come to the conclusion that right now in the market there is not a product that can do all jobs satisfactory (maybe Sandisk c4?).

- Fake cards.
