[General Questions and Answers] magisternautaque:
Hello Friends,

Does anybody know for sure if it is safe to use an app like root explorer to delete old nandroid backups?

I've got about a dozen backups listed in cwm that I will never use and about 3 that I use to switch between roms. Is it safe to just delete the ones that I don't need? and is root explorer the right app to use?

Thanks for your advice.
[General Questions and Answers] plainjane:
Yes, you can delete them. You can use any application or use your computer. Root Explorer will be fine.

There's no reason to keep them unless you want to be able to go back to your setup. I only keep one on my phone, store the ones that I may want to go back to on my computer, and delete the rest.
[General Questions and Answers] magisternautaque:
Thanks. I suspected as much.

If anyone has not used V6 Supercharger script on CM7, I would suggest doing so. CM7 runs SOOO much smoother after running its amazing. I used option 2 and 11.

[EVO 4G General] nukedukem:
Is this necessary for an EVO? Correct me if I'm wrong, but it looks like this is a memory tweak for older devices with less RAM. I don't know how much this would improve performance on a device with twice the installed RAM than the device the script was intended for. Then again, I haven't used the script so what do I know?
[EVO 4G General] zeppelinrox:
Hi :D

Well it's good for all roms and phones since you can put your own values in there.

The main thing is that it actually rearranges memory groupings and priorities in a certain way.

A way that takes full advantage of how the lowmemorykiller behaves.

About custom values, set the 3rd number for how much free ram you want.

If you want 80 mb free all the time, set slot 3 to 80.

Settings stick after reboot so no need for task killers or other minfree tweakers that start up on boot and linger...

Does anyone know if there is a way to add a keyboard language or restore it? I updated to nodo before official release on o2 uk and it appears to not have that keyboard anymore :(

How do you install the radio img
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjlawson09:
check the development page. there is a very easy step by step process that worked for me and the .zips are right there for you to download too. Plus its pin on the top of the thread so you dont even have to dig for it. How much easier could it get? Be careful though i hear if you mess this up you could brick your device.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bmakk2055:
If It's in a zip,you use the bootloader
[Galaxy S II General] alchemist316:
Ok maybe you guys can help no bias please lol sgs2or e3d if no bootlock issues please help lol I'm on sprint but if it is better then e3d is it worth the cutoff fee and new buy of sgs2
[Galaxy S II General] JJEgan:
I would buy the lol .

jje
[Galaxy S II General] alchemist316:
Lmao thanks
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
roflmao. heh
[Galaxy S II General] alchemist316:
But foreal I've been up spec searching even contacted Samsung and Qualcomm LOL this is a huge decision LOL I know its stupid there equally great but i can't seem to find who tops who I mean engadget says its best phone out but i feel there bias they also said ps3 network was better then 360 bleeehhh idk helppp
[Galaxy S II General] computermilk:
Are you talking about the EVO 3d? it's not even close to out yet... just wait and see what happens.. it might have TONS of issues keep in mind it's the first 3d screen phone on android right? who knows the thing might be complete balls in terms of Bugs and issues.
[Galaxy S II General] alchemist316:
Yea the 3d I'm gonna wait till virus or myn has a chance to look at the bootloader but to be honest the sgs2 great but i hate touch wiz and Samsung but ill sacrifice my not liking something for great hardware and they both tip the scales so ur right though I should wait but now thus thread will be attacked by EVO sgs2 fanboys LOL like the others
[Galaxy S II General] BarryH_GEG:
Phones aside for a second, you're talking about a big expensive switch on the carrier side. If you're on a SERO plan you're not going to find anything close to that on AT&T. Read the posts on the USA threads and you can scam your way to unlimted HSPA+ data and messaging for $20 but your all in monthly bill is still going to higher than Sprint. I don't know what the ETF is with Sprint but it cost me $200 to leave T-Mobile (and worth every penny).

At current prices you're looking at $700-800 for a SGS2. That may come down when inventory catches up with demand but I don't see it dropping below $600 any time soon. Also you'll lose all carrier support for your phone so warranty work will be provided directly by Samsung (direct or via Expansys USA). If you buy it off eBay you have no warranty at all.

As for comparison of the two phones, I'd say the real comparison is between the SGS2 and Sensation. They (for now) are both the flagships from Samsung and HTC. There's a thread on the Sensation forum which details the differences. You could use that to compare against the E3D specs.

If you want a flashship phone, and can live with the locked bootloader, the subsidized Sensation will cost you a lot less on T-Mobile. I got the SGS2 but was willing to pay a rediculous amont for it and willing to take the risks. I'll see in the long run if that was a good decision. So, think about all of this before you make your decision. Also, Sprint will probably get a CDMA version of the SGS2 sometime in the next nine months so if you wait you wont have incurr as much expense. Good luck...
[Galaxy S II General] alchemist316:
Thank you very much a non bias opinion rare LOL but yes in my reality I can afford it but I was going to get the 3d then saw sgs2 but its so close spec wise it comes down to very tiny detail like do I want 3d or not LOL.

Now i have the EVO 4g love it love sense love Sprint my plan was get EVO 3d not through upgrade but 2nd line cause thank god my brother wants my EVO or I'd be stuck with a 150$ bill plus dual 4g payout.

If the sgs2 does drop.on sprint ill have an upgrade so might as well stay on for now get 3d if sgs2 comes to sprint or price goes down why not have the two best at least till the new jaw droppers come out LOL .

Anyways thank u much

Oh idk what my plan is they said I can 10 devices in my plan LOL
[Galaxy S II General] JJEgan:
Lot of votes for the LOL makes you laugh when we don't even know the specs .

jje
[Galaxy S II General] alchemist316:
We know the specs for both we don't know much more on the 3d cause knowone has tested it in its final.build yet just from 2-3 months ago do u know what specs means we know adreno 220 mali 400 yhos are specs am I wrong
[Galaxy S II General] peachpuff:
Seeing that the thunderbolt and sensation have signed bootloaders the evo3d will probably go down the same path, if thats an issue for you than the sgs2 would be the only choice. Or even the lg optimus 3d.
[Galaxy S II General] alchemist316:
Problem is encryption not sighned right reports not encrypted will confirm
[Galaxy S II General] jangomango:
LOL FTW
[Galaxy S II General] stoney73:
I would rather wait for the LOL2
[Galaxy S II General] alchemist316:
I will get both
[Galaxy S II General] Bukem75:
Now that the SGS2 (Samsung Within) is coming to Sprint, that might make your choice easier... or harder. lol
[Galaxy S II General] alchemist316:
Not really because as u may have saw I'm gonna get both cause why not but they will not put both major phones out at the same time for Sprint it will be great if they would but the info I have from a person who worked within all companies ATT Verizon tmo and Sprint ATT and Verizon district man for years on each told me the way the makers of the phone are told Sprint persay will flagship there phone not giving any flagship releases so I don't see it hitting shelves for Sprint for a few months I want the 3d now sgs2 maybe later but god knows there is gonna be a better phone then both soon enough
[Galaxy S II General] ziggazee:
I wouldn't get either of them, because they've just announced the lol 3d
[Galaxy S II General] alchemist316:
What do you mean the release date ?
[Galaxy S II General] alchemist316:
And LOL kma
[HTC Sensation] euplio:
I open this petition to collect more "YES" possible so that HTC will unlock Sensation's boot lader.

SO, COME ON, VOTE YES!!! IMPORTANT: THIS PETITION WILL BE SENT TO HTC!
[HTC Sensation] bioheart:
am a newbie to the android, and i don't know what do u mean by petion..

does this thead mean i just have to reply and say yes?

i really hope the htc to unlock the bootloader, but really doubt about it.
[HTC Sensation] euplio:
This is a petition http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petition. You have have to vote yes and if do you want (not required) reply in the thread, btw thank you to vote "YES".
[HTC Sensation] epsix:
Yes
[HTC Sensation] beautyangel:
Yes unlock Sensation Bootloader.:)
[HTC Sensation] boostedb16b:
yes unlock bootloader... but this will not help... what will really make htc unlock their bootloader is if we boycott them and say we will not buy the sensation at all if its locked and convince others not to buy it... but its a longshot so i vote yes
[HTC Sensation] DSensation:
Ofcourse Yes!
[HTC Sensation] Killbynature:
Yes unlockable.
[HTC Sensation] ko0l:
Htc won't be looking at this, so what exactly is the point of this thread?

Like anyone gonna vote no lols
[HTC Sensation] ceroglu:
o0ps!.. I had some wine while watching a game this morning and I accidently clicked on locked, anyway to revert my answer? my apoligies.. :)
[HTC Sensation] omar302:
Remeber the petion made for the ATI drivers? absolutely no use!!

http://www.htcclassaction.org/

And that was for phones already sold & HTC was still in its beginings as the "HTC" brand outside the umberella.
[HTC Sensation] euplio:
Sorry it's not possibile for me, we must ask for a moderator to change it
[HTC Sensation] BeelzeM:
I doubt this is the best way to make a petition. Can't we make a petition on Petitiononline.com or something? We would reach a wider audience and get more signatures. We could send it to Android and tech related websites for people to sign. So we can make a more powerful statement to HTC and maybe also Motorola that the public wants to have the choice to do whatever they want with their devices.
[HTC Sensation] euplio:
XDA now have 3,878,020 REGISTERED USERS and is a worldwide site, a reference point for a lot of developers and useres. This is the best way!
[HTC Sensation] BeelzeM:
Agreed, but the threads in this Sensation section aren't getting many hits. I'd say ask moderators for a petition on the homepage or something that catches more eyes than here.

But great idea, I was waiting for someone to start a petition. Keep up the good work! Let's maximize the potential of this petition!
[HTC Sensation] DeezNotes:
I agree that the use of a petition web site outside of XDA would be useful. Not everyone who would want to vote is a registered XDA member and I'm not the type of person to be inclined to register somewhere just to cast a vote.

Now, if you were to use something like Facebook... I'm sure you'll get more votes there. Plus, other web sites probably wouldn't have a problem linking to it from their web sites (Android Central, Phandroid, Engadget, etc.).
[HTC Sensation] euplio:
I asked moderators to make an article in fisrt page, hope they accept...
[HTC Sensation] Dandandroid:
wont buy a locked sensation

this device sounds like the promise of the year,

but i wont think about buying it till i see the development threads filling with custom ROMs .

i love HTC hardware , but i hate the sense !!!!! and although the sense3 looks better it will still be far behind Cyanogen mods, performance wise .

and as a HERO owner ( hopping soon to be ex ) i know how HTC neglects the old devices . had 1.5, HTC promised 1.6 and then they promised 2.0, and finally when i got 2.1, everyone already had froyo. ahh

I dont want to see their stupid flipclock weather thing ever again :mad:

bottom line is:

only when HTC sensation will run CM7 ill buy it..
[HTC Sensation] eXceed:
Why is it locked in the first place? Noobs won't know what bootloader is and so won't be messing up their phones and people like us who mod our phones know what we are doing (or at least think we do) and so won't mess up our phones anyway... Having it unlocked just saves us the time of having to hack it to unlock. Really don't see what they achieve??!?
[HTC Sensation] euplio:
116 (yes) is better than 5 (not) but I want to know who voted not?

If you don't like Sensation just don't vote... (samsung fans)...
[HTC Sensation] graffixnyc:
I think we post on their fb page "You unlock it or all 1200+ of us are showing up at your office with baseball bats" :D

(North America Support

(Tech)):	I understand that you are wondering when the Sensation will have its boot loader unlocked. We’re pleased to announce that we have heard everyone’s comments and constructive suggestions and have decided to go forward with this initiative. We currently don’t have information regarding which existing phones will be unlocked, though as it was part of the initial outcry it seems likely (I don’t have any solid information I can confirm because the policy is still being somewhat reviewed internally. Keep an eye on our official website and official social media outlets for announcements about which phones will be bootloader unlocked and when.

Nothing new there, pretty much what they have been telling everyone
[HTC Sensation] vitusdoom:
I wonder who voted for no? :) are these the jealous guys that doesn't have the beast-like device (rolling music with lights off) HTC SENSATION! (spotlight on the ever wonderful device)

hehe
[HTC Sensation] aaronwms:
Totally don't understand what kind of strategy HTC is doing now. Locking bootloader does not help HTC business. The other way around, she is loosing her market share to her competitors such as Samsung or LG. I wonder how many HTC customers moving away from HTC to her rivals. HTC deserves it. I have my HTC Sensation, and I am going to sell it in eBay and switch to Samsung, or simply return it to T-Mobile wasting HTC money on refurbishing it.

To: HTC

Wake Up! Release the unlock utility ASAP to retain your customers before they all go to your competitors. Building up your image takes years, but to ruin your image, it only takes days. Listen your customers, and this is the only way to succeed.
[HTC Sensation] dawsonas:
I really do not understand some of this.

1. HTC stated some time ago that devices would have locked bootloaders and it was widely known before launch that the Sensation would suffer from this so why buy in the first place then whinge about it being locked.

2. HTC have publically reversed that policy and there are statements from them that the Sensation will be unlocked in a future firmware update. So HTC have listened to customers and are working on this so again why whinge on about it
[HTC Sensation] smashpunks:
Double yes from me...

Y E S! crapware need to gooo....
[HTC Sensation] MAMeingast:
I seriously wonder why anyone in their right mind would ever answer "No" to this question... Why on earth not? It's not like anyone is forcing you to do somemthing with a unlocked bootloader... It just gives you options - and options are always good, right? Even if you don't use them? A unlocked bootloader does not have ANY negative consequences...
[HTC Sensation] tryll1980:
Yes indeed. I would love an unlocked bootloader
[HTC Sensation] franekmat:
Hello. Although I have a LG GT540 Optimus I say naturally YES ;).

We cannot disclose when any new products/updates will be released or if they are even in development, however keep an eye out for our official announcements on www.htc.com. This is where you can find out the latest info on HTC.

Absolutely!
[HTC Sensation] jodue:
YES. i'd even say: i'm thinking about buying the sensation but i will definitely not spend money on a device that's intentionally locked down by the manufacturer to prevent me from using it to it's full potential. that's against all that android (open source) stands for and i think it's a impertinence to tell me what i can and can't do with the hardware i buy! chew on that htc!
[HTC Sensation] NYCguy2020:
Hell,yes.Is that even a question??!
[HTC Sensation] wallah:
htc suck

time goes by and no sign of HTC, I think we should expect nothing more from HTC ....

I am very, very disappointed by their attitude, we made ​​a promise that we just purchased the phone and there are no bad strategy .... I think in future I will not buy a HTC ... . I even advised my uncle to buy a brand other than HTC ....
