[Adam General] Trooper_Max:
I just got my Adam on Friday, and have been enjoying it without having done anything too hackish to it yet (thanks largely in part to the Amazon appstore).

I'm not really sold on the Eden UI system yet - it still feels a little bit buggy and not fully baked to me, but it may have potential. But if it were open source, any of us could work to improve it, and I do remember it being mentioned on the blog that the NI software would be open sourced (correct me if I'm wrong, hard to understand precisely what is meant sometimes).

notionink.wordpress.com/2011/01/28/more-updates (can't post outside links as a new member)

Given that the Honeycomb source isn't to be released any time soon, I'm curious what people's opinions are about whether Eden/NI software could make a viable open-source alternative to Honeycomb?

Would you prefer an open-source Eden/Froyo/Gingerbread rom over a Honeycomb rom (if the Honeycomb source is closed)?

Or would you rater drop Eden and stick to Android roms? (whether they be Honeycomb or not)

Would you like to see Eden ported over to more tablets? (which may or may not support Honeycomb any time soon) Do you think it could be an effective Honeycomb alternative for other tablets?

EDIT: Had to shorten the poll answers, here's what I'm asking:

Honeycomb, even if it can't be rooted/customized - you just want Honeycomb at all costs and don't care about its hack potential

Honeycomb, rooted and customized - you want Honeycomb, but only if it can be effectively hacked/customized

I'd rather stick to an Eden/AOSP-based system - you want maximum flexibility and see Eden/latest android source as a viable alternative, or may be a purist in terms of open source

Drop Eden, latest open-source Android - you don't care for Eden, but do want your system open source
[Adam General] rolliradi8:
At the moment Eden sucks and gives no added value in my opinion.

Nevertheless I would like to see a Honeycomb Eden version.

If I should choose right here and know I would choose Honeycomb (and of course it can be customized and rooted - its a bit foolish to think that this will not happen...)
[Adam General] FALLINGLEGACY:
@rolliradi8 : +1

I really don't like eden, loving Beast or VEGAn ROMs thought..

But honeycomb would be super awesome!

Allthough I am also really excited for trying Mad Murdock's CM7 ROM..
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] murdercitydan:
I've been noticing this for weeks, and so far its done it on every Rom I use.

I look at the catlog and the entire my phone is on, the wimax is constantly "trying to establish connection" and then "disconnects due to interruption of some sort".

My 4g works fine, but these errors are always popping up, that basically all my catlog has on it. What gives?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
Its a bug, of sorts. As you noted, its not rom specific. It starts when you shut your 4g off. The errors that you mentioned will then continue, until a reboot. They will start again once you start 4g, and then shut it off. Its annoying, and I'm surprised it has yet to be fixed.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] murdercitydan:
Ok, thanks.

So I figured out, as long as I goto menu>settings>wireless & networks> and turn 4g on, wait for it to start up, then turn off 4g, and I usually do this twice just for good measure. After turning it off, reboot the phone and 4g should be off once booted.

If you use widgets to do this, it will not work, and always start with 4g on.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikalem:
So, stock I ran the speedtest app and managed around 32 down on 4G - since installing a custom Rom however, it seems anything based on the .9 release, uploads seem capped at around 5. Anyone else have this problem?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prec1se:
Ya my upload speeds were right around 24mbps stock. After root, kernal and rom i dont get above 4mbps up. Strange. Also speed test app says I'm closest to DC. Even though I'm in Florida.. could be GPS fail.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psufan5:
Guys.. you arent actually getting those speeds. LTE does about 15 down, 5 up. The buffer on the phone lies about your speed because the file being sent is smaller than the buffer size. If you want a REAL number, tether to your desktop computer and run speakeasy.net
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thejondude:
so once you root the packet being sent changes size when rooted??? i did a few trys before and after rooted at the actual speedtest.net not the app and there was a difference so im sure there is something else goin on
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikalem:
Something about this doesn't pass the smell test though - using the same app, same hardware with only the underlying framework changed the numbers it reports should be identical..... even if they are flawed and way inaccurate. I know in reality it isn't 30 something up, that's a little rediculous, however I would expect a custom rom to report the same error the stock rom reports, or if it doesn't have an explanation as to why it doesn't, and why the number it reports is more correct... it's just confusing otherwise. Thanks for the replies guys, it's been bugging me :)

But rest assured that soon enough many custom kernels will emerge around here! Trust the devs, they have achieved the (almost) impossible!!! ;-)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joooch:
maybe this is a dumb question but, what will we be able to do with custom kernels?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alakasam:
Basically, do anything the phone's hardware can support!

Think about something like the Samsung Galaxy S can do, we can do that!

Due to same processors, but no multi-touch
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Reeonimus:
A custom kernel will allow us to see the full potential of our phone in due time. Things like the no FPS limit, 16M colors, native tethering, overclocking, undervolting will all be possible when we can boot a ROM on a custom kernel.

But just because the bootloader is bypassed does not mean we will have fully functioning ROMS instantly. Devs are hard at work testing custom kernels and in time we shall have plenty of choice.

Hacking mode ON

Ability to spoof your mac address and use your phone in your company.

Remember to rename the phone before doing that to something "more computer name".

Block ping answers to avoid getting cough.

Hacking mode OFF

Maybe:

Getting the phone working under-clocked at a very lower speed when only listening music at 64MHz, 128MHz available already.

Overclocking up to 1300MHz for short times.

Hook keyboards, mouses and external mass storage devices directly to the phone through usb port(obviously).

At lot minor and major updates that SE will not fix.

Battery life up to 5 days.

A lot more.

Can any 1 tell me what is bonsai 4.0 and what do i need to do with it if i want 2 install that rom? Also what cwm do i have 2 b on 2 install this rom?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] p3dr0maz:
Bonsai 4.0.0 is a custom ROM made by Randy_T and Mammon.

If you want to install it head on over to the link in my sig and register. 4.0.X versions are available for download for free.

It is recommended that you are on CWM 3.0.0.6.

Best route is to grab the ROM and put it on your SDCard.

Use EB13 3.0.0.6 Recovery / Root found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=897612

Boot into CWM and let the phone format your stuff to EXT4.

Flash Bonsai
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] guiseppe83:
I have had the IRONMAN ROM flashed for a few hours. i agree with everything in the previous post CWM3, EXT4....however using EB13 my phone always wants to update to EC05.... not a big deal... I dont like the icon pooping up all the time. I flashed back to DK28.... no updates coming in... works great... just my 2 cents :cool:

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] guiseppe83:
Simply put. I believe the thead is labeled "IRON MAN ROM" which if I'm not mistaken is based off bonsai.... Just a shot in the dark. As for my post, as I stated, "just my 2 cents" about my interaction with the rom.

[Epic 4G Themes] m5james:
That download reverted me back to 1.5.4, but it installed and works fine for me, I have yet to test the unlimited skip, but it's definately transparent for the album title. The album cover and controls are still the same, but that's fine. It doesn't have a widget though, which defies the point of me using it on my current desktop setup. Nice find nonetheless.

reverted back to regular pandora!

first of all, very sick app!!

could ya help me out? i installed the semi-transparent apk first... loved it, then decided i wanted to try the fully transparent one. so i uninstalled the semi, put the transparent .apk on my sd card and installed...

pandora works, but i just got a regular icon for pandora on my screen. tried to uninstall that and go back to the semi that was working before, and now that's only giving me a regular icon on my screen as well.

i mean, i still get connectivity with pandora, but am i doing something wrong, or did i mess something up? i'd like to have the transparent player on my screen!

thanks.
[Epic 4G Themes] phil.6687:
Not sure why it would do that, only time i had something like that happen is when if i didn't uninstall pandora before installed the themed version.

Make sure to remove the widget, clear pandora's data, and fully uninstall pandora. then install directy from my apk (don't do the market version first).

Let me know how that goes

[Nook Color General] cmstlist:
So I do enjoy my Nook Color, but at the same time it can be a bit tiresome to tether on the go. I noticed Bell is now selling the original Galaxy Tab for $399. It also just so happens that I sold a spare phone I don't use anymore for $250.

I can get at least $200 for the NC in Canada, possibly $250. So it wouldn't really be costing me anything to sell the Nook and buy a new Galaxy Tab. And I don't have to pay for 3G data in months when I am OK with just wifi; but I can probably use PC Mobile to get unlimited 3G for $7-10/month.

So the advantages of the Tab include two cameras, faster processor, lighter weight, brighter screen, auto-brightness sensor, 3G radio, mic, audio input via headphone jack...

Disadvantages? Well it's not one of the new generation of tablets. Neither is the NC, but the amount invested in it (and thereby the expected depreciation) is smaller. And the NC has CyanogenMod support and generally more stable custom ROMs compared to the patchwork of mods I see in the Tab ROM forums.

Any thoughts? Should I go for it?
[Nook Color General] skeeterpro:
Interesting dilemma. First blush would be the major change would be 3G of course and if that's your "need" vs. "want" then the choice is obvious. Just my opinion, but I'd head over to the Galaxy Tab XDA area and poke around there and see how the users feel about their Tab.

I have the NC and the GTab. Enjoy both for different reasons really. Probably use the NC a bit more only due to ease of transport.

Overall, IMHO, the Galaxy Tab would be a lateral move. I'd wait and see what's coming (perhaps better hardware and HC) then make a move.....but that's me. :)
[Nook Color General] Gin1212:
I agree with Skeeter, what is the GTab going to give you for an extra $200? And is it worth it? For some it may very well be, for others maybe not.

Personally I want a Xoom or a Asus Transformer, and for me "Mini HDMI out" is worth the extra cost. But for others, it's not =\
[Nook Color General] cmstlist:
True, the major change would be 3G. One extra detail is that I'm using my Nexus One on Wind Mobile right now with a super cheap unlimited text/talk/data plan. Their coverage has some gaps though, and text/talk roaming is relatively cheap but data roaming is pricey.

My spare PC Mobile SIM would have great cheap data coverage (until they decide to raise prices), but the same service would not be ideal for my daily phone usage because of that company's inflexibility with respect to long distance calling areas and lack of unlimited minute plans.

So I figure that the Galaxy Tab would be particularly good for trips out of my usual coverage area, and also that it would help reduce how much I toast my battery when tethering from the N1.

I also in fact have an opportunity to get a PlayBook at 50% off soon, but none of the models are launching with cellular radios yet for several more months. So I think I'll sit that one out for now.
[Nook Color General] bobzdar:
I'm not sure I get how it's tiresome to tether on the go? Are you talking about using a phone as a wifi hotspot or some more complicated way to tether? For me, no way it'd be worth $200 plus the cost of a 3g connection (even if on a month by month basis) to save the 5 seconds it takes to tether to my phone. It's literally unlock, tap 3g hotspot icon, hit power button on side of phone to shut off the screen and I'm done. Even if the 3g connection were free, I wouldn't shell out $200 to save that 5 seconds even if I had to do it 2-3 times per day...

Edit: I didn't see your roaming concerns. I don't have to worry about that as I don't go out of country and I have unlimited data in my phone plan. I guess it could be a PITA to swap SIM cards if you're roaming and you'd lose your phone at the same time, so it may be worth the $200 to get rid of that concern. But, I'd actually measure the impact (ie how often you actually roam and how much it'd cost to pay data roaming based on that) before deciding to spend the extra money.
[Nook Color General] tyy10002:
Have you checked out the identity tab, it is basically the same as Galaxy tab except the screen resolution. and there is a very good review in znet.com

http://www.jr.com/enspert/pe/EPN_E201U/

http://www.zdnet.com/blog/mobile-ne...-froyo-tablet-with-android-market-access/1791

I guess that it may be a better deal than $250 nook color or $399 galaxy tab.
[Nook Color General] lyam23:
I don't know that you'd be happy with such a low resolution on a large screen.
[Nook Color General] cmstlist:
No 3g, not much point. If I wanted to settle for lower resolution I'd go with the quad band 3G Dell Streak 7.

Sent from my Nook Color!
[Nook Color General] xdabr:
If I'm reading this correctly, it's not a lateral move financially -- because $250 of the purchase is already in cash from a spare phone you sold!

With that money you could choose to keep the existing NC and get a decent camera, GPS, and accessories. Or get a second NC. Or a decent smartphone with front camera. Or a whole lot of pizza.

In other words, I'm being of no help here at all. :)
[Nook Color General] cmstlist:
Hehe that's okay ;)

My logic is more that I previously had a main phone (AWS Nexus One for WIND), a spare phone (for compatibility with 850 3G networks), and then also got a wi-fi tablet. If I make the shift, then I would be combining the tablet and the 850 3G device into one package.

I should probably be focusing more on post-grad employment than on how to shuffle around the devices I own without income =)
[Nook Color General] akarol:
NC's display >>> Galaxy Tab's display.
[Nook Color General] spikey911:
After buying the Nook and finally experiencing a real tablet experience it left me wanting more...

I came to the conclusion that having a good tablet that was 3g enabled and could be used to make occasional calls would be ideal for me.

If it were me, I might lean toward the Galaxy..
