[General Questions and Answers] lude219:
Theres absolutely no advantage. they're nothing more but a placebo effect and all of the hundreds of benchmarks showing the brute strength of dual cores are fake. you're better off buying a first gen snapdragon like the toshiba tg01, xperia x10, nexus one, etc., or sticking with your droid pro. don't buy into the hype. id say wait until we have an octa-core THEN it'll be worth it.
[General Questions and Answers] Babydollll:
As of right now, only in some small circumstance with certain games. I say wait until Android is really ready to utilize dual core and for second gen hardware. Right now it's mostly hype and bragging rights....

[General Questions and Answers] sonsofblades:
Um, hate to break it to you, but Android is multi core optimized in the first place, so dual cores will have a pretty major impact on the flow and operation of the OS itself.
[General Questions and Answers] DPMAce:
op has a very good point.

Goodthing I can be content with my HD2 for a few years.

IMO it's really for the games, and I'd rather play hi def games on my computer at home.
[General Questions and Answers] Babydollll:
Yes. True. But as of now no apps (with the exception of the Tegra Zone (whatever) none are taking advantage. It really still is only bragging rights. Maybe in the next

year when everyone else catches up.

wattttttttt
[General Questions and Answers] Babydollll:
Android 3.0, the kernel itself lacks true understanding of both cores. It can see them, and code can be launched to either available CPU thread, but it is as yet not managing those threads, and the queue manager launches ALL applications to core 1 regardless of its load. It manages threads on core 1 just fine, but it does not manage core 2. (This explains my point perfectly quote from a poster on ars technica)

Well,there is much more to dual-core chipsets than just the CPU itself.Much more powerful GPUs,faster or dual-channel memories(RAM),larger RAM,usually a BETTER CPU(Not mentioning the second core,rather the fact that the cores themselves are evolutions of the single core ones) and the list can go on.Don't just hear only about the two CPU cores,that's a small piece of the mosaic. :)

Hi, i have an HTC HD2 with ROM version 1.72.161.3 and Flash 512 MB and need to flash it russian. I also have russian rom file 1.66.411.2 and have HSPL2 also. I need to know if i can run HSPL2 on this phone and flash with this russian file? Thanks in advance.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
Yea. Hspl first,, then flash over USB.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] T-Macgnolia:
Boot into bootloader and look to see what SPL version you have. If it is one of the below SPL versions then you can flash HSPL 2 to youe HD2.

SPL 1.42.0000

SPL 1.62.0000

SPL 1.66.0000

SPL 2.07.0000

SPL 2.08.0000

Hi, i flashed it to RUU_Leo_HTC_RUS_1.66.411.2_Radio_Signed_15.30.50.07U_2.06.51.07_Ship.exe and now i have "Your OS ROM isnt customized for your hardware". Forgot to mention my phone is vodafone. Help
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] T-Macgnolia:
That means you can not use that ROM on your HD2 as it did not come from the area of the world that HD2s that used that ROM were shipped to. Official ROMs are very much area or country specific. If you can find a official ROM from htc.com that is for your HD2 that says WWE in the name it will more than likely have Russian in it, you will just have to go into settings and set it to Russian. Use your serial number on the HTC site to get a list of official ROMs that are for your HD2 Look behimd your battery for your serial number.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrew21:
Well, i switched on the phone and flashed it, didnt go to bootloader berfore flashing. Could that be the problem?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] T-Macgnolia:
Naw if you had a ActiveSynce connection you are good. I suggest you always manually put your phone into bopotloader because it will save you some time and it keeps you bootloader from timing out because the RUU takes to long to start the flash for some reason. Plus it bypasses some of the checks the Ruu runs that might keep you from flashing.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
Did you hspl first? If yes, did you make the noob error of choosing a x.xx.0000 instead of x.xx.hspl?

Also, you can't flash from SD card in this situation.

Region shouldn't be a problem, but in the past I have seen occasional (rare) mention that Russian is the one region that can cause issue.

Go back to working rom, use psas to get a cid for an SD card, send it me with an email address and ill make you a goldcard. (Assuming re trying hspl doesn't do it)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrew21:
Thanks everybody for your help...i downloaded RUU_Leo_Vodafone_UK_1.72.161.3 file and repaired the phone. I also gave the phone back to my friend as i dont want to brick the phone.
[Fascinate General] dwight28:
1) Boot into CWM red recovery

2) Wipe Data

3) Wipe Cache

4) Wipe dalvik cache

5) Go to mounts and storage

6) format everything that doesn't start with SD, so format boot, system, data, dbdata.

7) Install your new ROM

8) Reboot

Basically 100% chance of NO bootloops or running into errors. Don't know why I put 99.9%.Good Night~
[Fascinate General] xHoLyx:
No Offense, but there's plenty(I mean tens hundreds :D) of posts saying this.

And step 6 is not necessary, I have flashed over 20 Roms and havent had to format my sd.
[Fascinate General] landshark68:
Thanks xHoLyx, you beat me to posting the same thing. And step #6 is classic gunnermike speak. I'd recognize that anywhere. Adrynalyne just released EC01 ROM and radio, and both he and GizmoDroid have posted slightly different methods for installing the new ROM and radio. Would you like to also post those exact steps in a how to thread and make it seem like you came up with the steps?
[Fascinate Android Development] adrynalyne:
EC01 must be old, right? Not so. I cannot give you the build date however, per request of...someone else. Its considerably newer than EC10, however. For some it may be hard to take my word for it, but I have never lied to anyone here.

In here you will find a new shiny radio, a voodoo or non voodoo EC10 kernel, courtesy of JT1134, and...a ROM!

No more hacking pieces together from other devices. No more crappy radios (hopefully). No more poor GPS (hopefully).

Please do not ask where it came from. I will not tell you. All file dates have been changed, the build.prop has been masked.

Please do not ask for an Odin. I will not give you one at this time.

Please enjoy yourself, I insist.

This ROM is ever so slightly tweaked. It is not a quality release by my standards (mostly because its stock). I recommend folks wait for the community rom to be finished. If you can't wait, by all means, flash away.

Does not include a kernel.

Debinged, browser included.

Debloated, yet contains most stock apps.

Custom boot animation, because I am not including the original kernel.

Dialer voicemail button points to Google Voice.

Your current kernel will be retained. So if you are using a Froyo kernel, you will be just fine.

Xoom boot animation because you will be using a custom boot animation supporting kernel.

Installation Instructions (read carefully)

---------------------------------------------------------

Make a nandroid backup.

Odin back to EB01 stock.

http://adbdev.com/danknub/CI500_VZW_EB01_FROYO_REL.tar.md5

Boot once, then Odin clockwork recovery.

http://adbdev.com/danknub/cwm-recovery-ALL-3-30-FIX.tar

Boot straight to clockwork recovery, and flash my kernel of choice from here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1003017

Boot once, convert to voodoo if need be.

Boot back to clockwork recovery and flash rom.

Boot once, then Odin the radio.

Please follow these directions. There are apparently some kernel/cwr issues that are causing boot loops. If you decide to flash another kernel afterwards, be my guest. Don't wipe, however. The above directions are after hours of testing by IRC folks, and I THANK all of them!!!!!

Copied from my "Most Thorough Method of Fixing Every Problem You Might Have" section in the recovery thread, and adapted to this post.

This will wipe your data, btw, so be sure to backup any important info. You can make a nandroid backup, but you will probably have issues if you try to restore the data to use with this ROM.

The kernel of your choice

Step-by-Step Installation - Important!

ODIN the full stock EB01 package in PDA, the atlas_v2.2.pit in PIT, and "Re-Partition" checked

Let your phone fully boot into the OS and verify everything is working correctly

Remove your battery

ODIN the CWM Recovery package

Close odin, Unplug/replug the phone from USB, re-enter download mode, Re-open odin.

ODIN the modem

Unplug USB Cable, THEN reinsert your battery

Hold both of the volume keys and the power button down until a second after you see the Samsung boot logo, then let go

It should now boot into red CWM recovery

Wipe Cache only. Flash the ec10_rom.zip

Flash the kernel of your choice

Reboot. If you have installed a voodoo kernel, then you should hear a Sexy Robot lady telling you that she is converting your partitions. This process will take 10 minutes or so. If you pull the battery, you will have to start all over again.

Let your phone fully boot into the OS and verify everything is working correctly

I can't stress enough how important it is to check your files for the correct checksum to verify that your download did not get corrupted (you can also use it as a way to make sure you have the right version). Also, follow these instructions exactly. You could potentially be wasting your time and anyone else's who is trying to help you fix whatever random issue you might be having, merely because you didn't follow the instructions.

Did you enable lag fix under voodoo in cwm before rebooting your phone? Jt's kernels should enable lag fix on their own, but it is always a good idea to check it before rebooting. Before you check on that though, as long as you are using terminal emulator, open it up then next to $ type su, hit the enter key on your keyboard, you should see a #, next to that type mount, hit enter key. After all the script appears, use your finger to scroll to the top of the script and look for the following:

rootfs / rootfs rw 0 0

proc /proc proc rw,relatime 0 0

sys /sys sysfs rw,relatime 0 0

/dev/block/stl9 /system ext4 rw,relatime,barrier=0,data=writeback,noauto_da_all oc 0 0

/dev/block/stl11 /cache ext4 rw,noatime,barrier=0,data=writeback,noauto_da_allo c 0 0

/dev/block/stl10 /dbdata ext4 rw,noatime,barrier=0,nodelalloc,data=ordered,noaut o_da_alloc 0 0

/dev/block/mmcblk0p1 /data ext4 rw,noatime,barrier=1,data=ordered,noauto_da_alloct he

ext4 is what you are looking for. If you see RFS in any of the 4 locations you dont have voodoo or just one of the partitions has voodoo.

I've spoken with Samsung about the +1 issue - it seems to cause problems all across the board, most notably with SMS and MMS sending.

For some reason the i500 specifically doesn't like to use numbers that have the +1 prior to the rest of the phone number. They haven't offered any solution other than to remove the "+1" from any phone numbers, close any open conversations (within your SMS app) and try again. Usually it works without the +1

I see below you solved this. But thought I would mention that I had this exact problem on SC 2.8 and what fixed it was flashing the same kernel again.

Haven't had that problem since then.
