[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doug0365:
Do you guys find the nexus s to be sluggish specially within the browser? I find that the nexus S struggles with web pages that have lots of pictures or media content specially with the flash plugging set to on all the time. I haven't root or anything since I bought my phone from bestbuy to try it out the second time :) the first time the GPS was crappy but this time around its much better anyways does performance improve with custom roms? I want to root and put a custom but I'm afraid best buy won't take my phone back since my carrier is really at&t and having a phone with no 3g sucks balls :(
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uansari1:
First, Gingerbread doesn't use hardware acceleration in the web browser. Second, turn flash to On Demand..that should speed things up some.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doug0365:
If that is the case then why in all the previews/reviews I see the galaxy S 2 browser performance so smooth even surpassing the iPhone. Isn't the galaxy 2 running gingerbread?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tadaha:
Try Firefox or opera mobile, they're much faster when it comes to loading pages with lots of pics and vids.

I'm using opera mobile, and it's my favourite so far among all the browsers. Firefox is good but it does not support flash.

Dolphin HD 5 looks promising, but still in beta, gotta wait for the official release.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] p00kienrayray:
just an off topic question, why didn't you just buy an at&t nexus s? i've found some for as low as $548 shipped (assuming you paid full price @ best buy). Also since you're only using 2G on your Tmo version, at&t should be charging you regular 3G rates.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uansari1:
That is a modified browser apk. The Galaxy S browser is reportedly smoother than the Nexus S as well..small tradeoff for a pure Google experience and they're supposedly working on it for future release.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deeren:
it is not enabled in stock gingerbread, however samsung has enabled hardware acceleratio in its browsers ( sgs1 and sgsII ).

For the time being, the only application making use of gpu acceleration is opera. (Not the mini version). you could give it a try.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droptothetop:
+1 on using Opera Mobile. It's nice and speedy.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doug0365:
Because I wanted to try out the nexus s before plugging the money for it, atleast buying it at best buy I'm able to return the phone no questions asked. Also I'm not really sold on android yet since my main phone is the iPhone 4 but I'm getting bored with it at the moment. So far android has impressed me but I'm still getting used to the interface and I do find it a bit quirky at times. In some cases the phone feels smooth and at other times it feels a bit sluggish so that's why I asked if putting a custom rom makes the phone smoother or just gives it additional functionality.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doug0365:
Question

When I do decided to get the at&t version of the nexus s are all GSM roms compatible with it or they have to be specific for i9020a model?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nfinity:
Mine seems to be incredibly zippy. Turning plugins to Demand mode worked wonders for me. My phone loads flash intensive sites as fast as most computers I've used, including flash videos like those on newgrounds. This is also my first Android phone, so there's a tiny chance that I'm exaggerating a little, seeing as how I'm coming from the pain that which is WinMo 6.5.

So is it save to freeze / remove it as long as I don't want to update with a stock rom?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rjhall:
So my HTC Hero has bit it. It has had a bad touch digitizer for about a week now. Is there ANY way to remove my text messages off the phone, perhaps with ADB? My phone will turn on and I can look at the screen but cannot touch anything. As such, I cannot unlock it.

Does anyone have any suggestions?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aiwetir:
If it's rooted, you could conceivably pull the database file from it if you knew where it was, someone here should know that and this should bump your post back to the top.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rjhall:
It's not rooted, but with the screen off, I could always do so. I think USB debugging is on... :confused: Not actually sure.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasonmaloney:
If USB debugging is enabled, you can get a root shell (soft root) with the rageagainstthecage exploit and do what you need to do.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rjhall:
Alright, do you know where the text messages are saved?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasonmaloney:
Dialer storage. Don't remember the exact path offhand.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rjhall:
Would it be possible for me to get to it in ADB without rooting the phone?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Fer-Shiz-Nizzle:
the path is /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/mmssms.db

I'm not sure if root access is required, but good luck
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rjhall:
Sorry, my experience with ADB is limited. What are the commands I would need, or where would I find a list of commands/functions? I tried the official Android Developer pages and found nothing helpful.

EDIT: Sorry, just got off third shift a couple hours ago and my brain doesn't want to work. I managed to figure out the commands but...

!!!A new challenger appears!!!

I don't have USB debugging enabled. My touchscreen doesn't work. I am in quite a pickle, I believe. I can't get the PC to recognize the phone without USB debugging on. Is there a way to turn it on without a screen?! :confused:
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasonmaloney:
Wait... you said just the digitizer is broken? As in, the screen is intact but you just can't make any touch selections?

Are you on the stock (HTC Sense) firmware? If so, you can unlock the phone by pressing MENU on the lockscreen. From there, press MENU again, and use the trackball to navigate to Settings. Turn on USB debugging and root the phone. Install a custom recovery image, then reboot into recovery and do a nandroid backup. Then you'll be able to keep everything, not just your text messages.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rjhall:
It's hard to explain the problem I'm having. The screen doesn't turn on or respond to touch inputs. If I squeeze the phone's sides hard enough, I can get the screen to come on. Soon as I let up, it goes dark. Keys still light up, though. If I do anything with the keys, it doesn't show up on the screen. I have no idea how to get past this.

I am on stock HTC firmware now. I completely reflashed the entire phone with the 2.1 utility. That is, before it randomly stopped working.

After USB debugging is enabled, I can just pull the entire system directory, no? No need for nandroid or anything?

Hey guys My screen is being repaired for the next couple days and I reallly need to check my text messages....Can I get more clearification on what you guys are tallking about because im lost but Im up for anything as long as I can see my texts,
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cytherian:
I don't know if it's possible to do this, but it's worth a try. Have you heard of "Air Droid"? It allows you to interface with your phone via a WiFi connection. If you can download an apk file of Air Droid, then flash it to your phone, you might be able to run it. Although your screen digitizer isn't working, your trackball can still select screen items. If it works, you can do a connect to WiFi, see the code, then use the browser interface. I think through that you can access data on the phone, including text messages.

Also, there are some apps that perform SMS to email. You could theoretically have your text messages sent to your email account.

On my stock Viewsonic G, I have recently been getting a "Not Trusted Server Certificate" error that keeps me from accessing the Amazon market, gReader and Zinio in the Readers Hub.

Same problem on two different wifi systems I tried it on.

Any suggestions on how to fix this?
[G Tablet General] flast:
Just press the "Continue" button.

My g-tab does the same thing.
[G Tablet General] golfblogger:
Continue works on the browser, but isn't an option in the Amazon market, gReader and Zinio
[G Tablet General] B3ATTY:
Two suggestions:

Find the certificate you need and then try http://www.realmb.com/droidCert/

Otherwise (only for rooted device though) you could: copy the existing keystore from system\etc\security to your PC; install an app called Portecle on your PC; use it to add the certificate to your keystore; and then copy the keystore back onto your tab.

Dear Saiwunnantun,

Can you try starting reading and reading the most ever readed and followed Thread for HTC CDMA Diamond "XDAndroid" development.

link here

Actual roadmap is FRoyo but there is the first Alpha for Gingerbread (I tried GB but Keyboard is totally no functional by now).

You will need to read also this Thread as it is mention in the first Thread

because is the central repository for most of the files you will need to make

XDAndroid work in your CDMA HTC DIAMOND,

Note: For the LAST Roofts, initrd, zImage, module and System-ext2 THAT WORKS WITH HTC Diamond CDMA read the last post (it is mine in fact) because the lastest updates of Roofts doesn't work in HTC DIAMOND , but I have the hope it will works in next FroyoX07 release (NO clue when it will be release)

If you don't find it (try this night, I'm updating that now)

P.d.: I will say this gently and try to make the point of the rules of this SITE.

It is highly desire by the rules of this Site that you read before ask,

as an example: if you have had read the rules I'm guessing you will have asked in the proper Thread

[Nook Color General] Tsaven:
I know there's a lot of threads like these, but everything I could pull up seemed really out of date, or didn't have the information I need. The Wiki was good, but just gave a list of all the builds out there, and I can't sort out which one is currently best for what. I'm hoping someone can give me some quick answers:

tl:dr: Have a brand new Nook Color. Video will be 95% of what it's used for, little to no web browsing or games. Would like to use it to watch movies/TV shows streamed from my NAS or off the SD card. 5% of use will be viewing photos directly off my digital camera's SD cards (using converters in the cameras).

Tell me what OS/Software to use. Most files are .mkv format, usually 720p.

Currently, I've got Nookie Froyo installed on the SD card, and after a lot of frustration of how the heck to actually get files onto the SD card while also having the OS on there, I found that bootloader NookColorUMS thing, which even though it seems like more steps than should be needed, has allowed me to copy files to the SD card with the nook connected via USB cable.

I'd like to have the OS installed internally, so I'm free to swap SD cards around to quickly move data around. Also so I can pull the SD cards out of my cameras, stick them in the nook, and browse the photos.

Currently I'm using Rockplayer Lite, which plays the 480p files fine, but craps out trying to play 720p. It also is very annoying in that it it has no back button in the UI that I can figure out, so you have to use that tweek to force the status bar to always be on top, which is annoying. If there's any way to get the stock player to play the files, that would be best. I know it should be possible, my Samsung Moment plays all these files naively with the build-in movie player. But the Gallery player won't play them on this version of Froyo that I've got on here.

My questions boil down to:

-What OS should I use if I'm going to go through the trouble of figuring out how to install in on the internal memory?

-What's the best video player/codec pack?

-How do I browse/play files off my shared drives on my computers and NAS unit?

Thank you for any answers you can give, or any directions you can point me in!
[Nook Color General] Novaglarion:
Hope this helps.

-What OS should I use if I'm going to go through the trouble of figuring out how to install in on the internal memory?

CM7 - try phiremod nook

-What's the best video player/codec pack?

I've been using handbrake to convert all my video to MP4 using these settings.

-How do I browse/play files off my shared drives on my computers and NAS unit?

PlayOn works pretty good. Depending on the source video type i get some sync issues.
[Nook Color General] kLAcK107:
Easiest install method

#1 Install Clockwork Recovery Mod to internal memory from your bootable SD card.

#2 Drop your desired rom on the root of a non-bootable SD card

#3 Restart into Clockwork Recovery Mod by powering on with n button held down

#4 Backup!

#5 Flash zip from sdcard

Now as far as video... I think you might be disappointed. You are going to need to reencode each video for the nook to get best results.

I recommend Phiremod Nook 6.2
[Nook Color General] Tsaven:
Thanks for the reply's everyone. I'll get CM7 installed tonight.

I'm REALLY hoping to not have to convert videos to be able to play them on the Nook. That was basically the reason I DIDN'T get an iPad, I don't want to have to convert videos into a specific format to play them. All of these files played fine on my Moment, I guess I made the mistake of assuming they'd work fine on any Android device.

Is there no way to just be able to browse a network, and view/play videos and pictures on them? It seems like it should be such a basic feature.

What other good video players are available besides Rockplayer? Or, how would I install additional codecs to get the build-in video player to work?
[Nook Color General] Cybore:
I think Vitalplayer Neon and Mobo player are pretty good for the nook.
[Nook Color General] justmoinow:
TL;DR; ?? Reaally?!?

Not reading (repeatedly the same instructions over), being impatient and rushing headlong into things is the easiest way to muck things up. We're just lucky NCs are impossible to be permanently bricked.

CM7 latest nightly (n86 onwards) has the newest fix for audio and video, while being on the .32 kernel and have support for an Overclock kernel. Smoothest vid playback I've ever seen, without any mucking about in re-encoding in Handbrake, etc.

I use moboplayer. 720p vids are a touch-n-go, some are OK, some are not. But if the HW acceleration (of the .32 kernel) doesn't cut it, moboplayer has the soft-decoding option.

Cifsmanager.

Just install, no other tweaking necessary. All extra files (mentioned in older thread abt this) have been in the CM7 ROM since n30s or n40s (or n50s, I can't remember really :rolleyes:).

[Galaxy S II General] xiga:
Hey guys

Ok so i too was having difficulty receiving MMS's (and probably sending too, although i haven't tried). I think it was because i changed my phone's CSC to XEU (i'm on O2). My phone has two APN's, one it seems is for mobile internet (APN: mobile.o2.co.uk) and the other is for MMS (APN: wap.o2.co.uk). I recently flashed KF3, so i updated a few of the settings in the MMS APN to those in the O2 link posted a little earlier. And when i selected the MMS APN and turned on my mobile data i was finally able to view the MMS's i'd received.

So my question is this. Every time i receive an MMS, do i have to go into the settings and choose the MMS APN? Is there a way to just have one APN that does both? I don't want to go changing my main mobile internet APN settings before i know for sure.

Cheers guys!

I too don't use the stock sms/mms app, i use Go Sms.

But can anyone tell me if you can use a single APN for both internet & MMS or do you have to keep switching between the two? I saw the link someone posted about what the MMS settings were for O2 users (like me) but the settings seemed to be for GPRS not mobile internet. If someone else on O2 could post their combined APN settings i'd be very grateful!

02 MMS messenging. sending MMS not working

Hi

Got a Samsung Galaxy S2 and been using the ressurection remix ICS rom for some time but found my only annoying gripe was I wasn't able to send MMS.

I am on 02 UK.

I have now upgraded to resurrection 2.0 to see if it made any difference and it hasn't worked.

I am on Android version 4.04. The baseband is I9100XXLPR and the kernel is Siyah v3.2.6+ which is on the resurrection rom anyway.

I found some setting on 02 which showed how to configure setting for MMS on galaxy S2 but still have found it doesnt work.

http://mobilereviews.o2.co.uk/devices/device.jsp?deviceId=738&tab=8&step=2&settingId=3885

I have also phoned 02 Customer support and they couldnt help and tried to send some settings over the network but still didnt work. I think receiving MMS is no issue.

Is this because I am running another ROM and kernel? I have looked on the forums and some people can get it working but I am having no such luck.

Is anyone able to help?
[Galaxy S II General] Doallyn:
Have you checked the image size? I found this on Resurrection that I couldn't send an MMS but then tried with a lower res photo and it worked fine. Seemed that the full 8MP image was being rejected - this was on Orange mind, but was doing my head in till I tried a smaller image

Don't think it has anything to do with the ROM i just assumed it was a network limit?
[Galaxy S II General] AaronUK:
I had this problem.

The maximum size to send a MMS in the UK is 300k. I installed GoSMS and set 300k as the limit and this solved my problem.
