SetCPU is the most common CPU frequency changer.
[Droid Incredible General] dyetheskin:
overclock widget is another alternative
[Droid Incredible General] android-incredible:
C

What is the best setting. I have overclock widget. Thanks.... guys....
[Droid Incredible General] Pithism:
so there no kernels to help oc, just use setcpu tor similar apps?

on other phones u need kernels to oc. just curious if this phone i different
[Droid Incredible General] notwen:
The default kernel won't overclock, setcpu can perflock the stock HTC Sense based kernel and allow underclocking for better battery preservation.

You can download chad's incredikernel, lou's kernels or ziggy's for Sense-based kernels that can be overclocked.
[Droid Incredible General] The-Captain:
I don't know about the widget but on setcpu I have mine set to the highest with performence settings.
[Droid Incredible General] android-incredible:
wao im confused know,do i need a kernel.thanks...
[Droid Incredible General] razor2006:
A lot of kernels have oc capabilities, but you still need SetCPU to tell it what speeds to run at and such. CM7 has this functionality built right into the CM Settings.

It will depend on what ROM you're using, and what kernel you're using.
[Droid Incredible General] Pithism:
will ziggys chad's incredikernel, lou's kernels or ziggy's kernels work for new sense 2.1 or 2.2?
[Droid Incredible General] brando56894:
Depending on what version they are. IDK what version the new kernels are but the sense 1 kernels are 2.6.32-17. IMO overclocking an incredible doesnt offer that much of a performance gain, it can only be bumped up by about 150-200mhz as compared to the other devices which can do 300-700mhz.
[Droid Incredible General] Pithism:
no that makes sense, im waiting in the mail for my phone so i dont know what new kernels numbers r, but if there the same they should work
[Droid Incredible General] android-incredible:
I have a kernel version 2.6.3217-g9a2fc16

Htc-kernel@418000-build-149#1

Sofware # skyrider 4.0 sence beta

Android version 2.2
[Droid Incredible General] notwen:
All Froyo-based ROMs should be covered by those three kernel builders. Unfortunately those also are about the only active kernel devs that are supporting Sense-based kernels, the majority are AOSP.
[Droid Incredible General] phenol312:
Has anyone thought of tweaking with the voltages on the incredible kernels. I also own a Nook Color and they thought 1.1 was the max for us until dal messed with the voltages and a few other things under the hood. If it gets us gains with running features on newer roms (sense 3.0) it might be worth exploring the possibilities.

Where do yall go to get wallpaper for your desires??
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davebugyi:
From the internet :)

Just google search. If the size does not fit the desire screen, I quickly adjust it in GIMP.

Also there are several wallpaper applications on the market.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lordvoldemort:
Just install an app called flikie wallpaper from market..they have got a great variety of wallpapers..you can download a single wallpaper or complete album itself..

[T-Mobile LG G2x] Erislover:
The link in the post below by NikolaiT is definitely worth reading - long story short, you should NOT be using a task killer (especially with this phone, with all its available RAM). Using one actually makes your phone run less efficiently, and it can drain your battery to boot.

i think task killers are great if you use them to kill the right apps, not the recurring self-opening ones

[T-Mobile LG G2x] jayohwhy:
The best thing to do instead of task killers is to use autostarts to stop apps from opening unnecessarily
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Erislover:
Thanks, reposted the correct link in the original!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] crazythunder:
when i see a rogue app running in the background, i dip my phone into a container of dry ice, just to teach it a lesson.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Erislover:
That's pretty stupid...everyone knows you should only use the dry ice method when your battery's overheating.

Noob.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] crazythunder:
how do you think titanium freezes apps? newb
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jayohwhy:
Is this a douche-y way of saying autostarts doesn't work?

If not I think I'll need to have A couple beers before I think that is funny,
[T-Mobile LG G2x] c19932:
lol now that's funny :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tackleberry:
I use a task killer to kill current running apps but no automatic killing and no killing of the background apps. Sometimes I like to free up memory
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nate420:
Haharharhardyhaha its pretty funny... I think you are assuming his scarcasm over the internet.... not the best thing to do unless you want to start the grammar corrections and insults
[T-Mobile LG G2x] schmit:
Freeing up memory doesn't do anything.. The larger memory # just looks pleasing to your eyes. When the android phone actually needs memory, it will shut down any and all apps that are not currently in use. These apps you are shutting down to 'free up memory' are sitting there dormant. As in, the memory is already free for the taking... You're actually accomplishing nothing at all besides making the memory # larger to your eyes and wasting battery.

It's a waste of time and battery to shut down any apps unless they are running wild. WatchDog will show you which ones are running wild on CPU usage.. That's all that is needed.. and once used for a day or 2 to evaluate.. it should be uninstalled because that too uses battery to monitor.

I find it funny to watch some guys using task killers, "I'm literally shutting the same things down over a 100 times a day!!! My battery sucks!!!" I laugh.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] alwarnecke:
I read that article and stopped using my task killer for a day... everything was ridiculously slow after that. Browser, menus, etc. were extremely slow/buggy. One click of the task killer and everything ran smoothly again. I'll stop using a task killer when android starts using my memory the way it claims to.

Yes, it may drain battery faster... but I don't have time for buggy/stuttering menus and browsers.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] btate0121:
I use a task killer... as a scalpel... not a hatchet. sometimes apps freeze (badly written, not working well for specific devices and just because). Then I use a task killer to kill THAT app. but auto clearing tasks is a bad idea.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] schmit:
But you see, there is no knowledge of what is actually on that caused the slowness. It could have been 1 app going rogue. Without that knowledge, the only knowledge you end up with is "killing all apps was the solution." Sure, it appears as the correct fix, but was it only 1 app that could be frozen/removed/reinstalled? You don't know unless you dig deeper. A task killer just makes it look/sound/feel right.

WatchDog is a CPU monitor. Next time your phone is lagging up, put it on and look at the CPU usage. You'll find the app that is giving you challenges and you can shut it down.. then watch your phone stop lagging. Lastly, you can choose to freeze/uninstall/reinstall the app to come to a final solution.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] alwarnecke:
Valid point. I'll try that for a few days and post the results, can't hurt!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Erislover:
No, it was cool :) I even thought about replying: "Only a noob spells it "newb," you nube." But ultimately I decided against that because it wouldn't have been that funny.

By the way, I think you meant "it's"...

[T-Mobile LG G2x] againareku:
And I'm busy wondering what people are running that actually slows down this phone

3-4 browser windows, text messages, music playing in the background or a call on speaker phone

and I still can't get it to lag.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] clicktician:
I have an app that tracks and transmits my location. It has no "quit" menu option.

There are many times I want to stop it... especially when I'm stationary for a long time.

I realize that having no way to gracefully stop an app is part of the Android kool aid. But until developers allow users to be in charge of their applications, we will use task killers.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] hazard99:
Android is like this by design. Linux on the desktop works the same way. The person who said look for the crappy coded app has the right idea. Btw I often use auto killer which allows me to set when android decides to kill off apps!

[Droid X Accessories] Psosmith82:
Just got an extended battery for my X2, and the battery door does not match, its grey, whereas the X2 door is black. Is the original X more grey than the X2?
[Droid X Accessories] Psosmith82:
Now that the x2 is officially released verizon carries an extended kit for the

X2 in the correct color with x2 branding. They exchanged the old one no problem
[Droid X Accessories] SaimonCJ:
Were you able to get a cover for the X2 at your local Verizon Store? Or did you have to go through VerizonWireless.com?

I just received my battery with the wrong colored cover, but when I called customer service they tried assuring me it was the only cover available for the extended battery.
[Droid X Accessories] fadeout:
I would bring it to a retail store and have them swap it out. It seems like they sent you the older model.
[Droid X Accessories] SaimonCJ:
Yes, they apparently don't have the battery for the X2 on the VerizonWireless site, or it's not easily found. When I contacted them through email, they sent the X2 battery with instructions to return the original X battery (No separate battery doors are available).

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harvin Dhillon:
I am having problems with my new S2, the camera just wont focus. It just bleeps and a green square appears but nothing is in focus.

Any ideas? I am running the KE2 firmware
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjjensen23:
What focus setting is it on? Auto focus, macro or face detection?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harvin Dhillon:
Well I tried all three and nothing helps. It just bleeps but I dont see the camera trying to focus at all.

Can this be a hardware issue? or merely software? Should I try to update to the latest firmware in the hopes this might get fixed?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjjensen23:
Did you do the firmware upgrade from samsung apps?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harvin Dhillon:
Yeah I did and it was updated to KE2 but I do believe there is an KE4/KE7 out right now? Still doesnt appear in my Kies however.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjjensen23:
Nah the camera firmware was from the samsung app on the phone which installs an apk which yhen updates the camera. Is that the one you did?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kersh:
Same here, a lot of times the camera doesnt focus

for example if I want to do a macro photo I select the macro, then the camera focus nice, but if I move it and I try to focus another thing the camera doesnt do it.

In auto mode with some barcode programs it doesnt work either if I try to focus close.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harvin Dhillon:
Hmn... I dont think so mate, but how can I make sure? I cant really remember getting any update from samsung on my phone.

Hmn... but I never seen mine focus or even try. You know when the camera goes blur and then back sharp? Mine just stays static lol Not sure if it is normal but it does seem like a problem.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harvin Dhillon:
Checking the Firmware for the camera, it says

Cam FW Ver: OCED10

Phone FW Ver: TBEC28

Hmn... now should I claim warranty for this? or this can be fixed lol ? I hate for it to be sent to warranty claims :(
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kohiiou:
I know this sounds silly, but have you tried cleaning your lense?

Sometimes if the lense is a bit dirty (even invisible oil), it tries to focus on the oil. The distortion could trick the camera into thinking it's in focus (the closest to being focus) and just pop the green square.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harvin Dhillon:
Haha I hope it was that simple. Tried that actually, and it doesnt help :(
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kersh:
if doesnt focus anything or at least try it, probably the camera is broken.

Use warranty dont doubt it
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Solidswede:
I have the same problem, but only sometimes.

Check and see if you actually get out of focus shots after you have snapped a pic. I'm still on the phone's very first firmware and I am having trouble updating it for some reason...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harvin Dhillon:
Taking pictures of far objects are ok. Seems to just be a static focus but when I try to take pictures of anything near or of someone close that I need to focus, The camera does nothing, there is no attempt at focus even when there is the green focus box.

Guess the camera might be broken :(, will call up for warranty.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rigosj:
I have similar problem. The camera is a disappointment. The pictures are blur. I hope it can be fixed somehow. Any thought on this?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pulser_g2:
No issues here. Focuses perfectly almost every time.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SBS_:
Your phone is most likely broken, you should send it back. Here is a 100% crop of a picture directly from the SGS2 and looks plenty sharp to me.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rigosj:
Thanks! But I hope there might be another solution. I have tried different kernel versions, but I did not succeed. The barcode scanner works perfectly, but normal pictures remain blur.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rigosj:
I have sent it back to repair. Hopefully, It wont last for ages.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vilbrekin:
I do have the same issue on mine (no auto focus).

Did you get any feedback?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harvin Dhillon:
I sent it back for repair and they replaced a new one for me since it was less than 5 days old. Focus is okay on the new one
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vilbrekin:
Just sent mine for exchange too. Let's hope it won't be too long...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eXecuter.bin:
Hello guys,

To start things off, I would like to address that I am fairly new to the Android modding scene, but I am not a utter noob.

I flashed my Atrix with the Telstra sbf (OLYEM 1.4.2), and followed this guide here on how to install greyblur. I believe that I have read it from multiple forums and members stating that by using the Telstra sbf package, it will allow you to install greyblur onto a Bell Atrix. However, that clearly wasn't the case for me.

I followed the guide and every step correctly, but after installing the greyblur bundle in the recovery menu, my phone would get into a boot loop after displaying the greyblur bootscreen, as well as a flashing red LED. My question here is not to how to recover my phone, as I was able to reflash the Telstra sbf and restore everything.

Did I miss any critical points regarding on compatibility, or is the boot loop expected right after installing the greyblur package and requires additional steps to be taken?

Any advises would help, thank you.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ethantarheels123:
afaik, greyblur is not compatible with bell atrix, no matter what you flash it with. its radio or kernel or whatever is different than what kennethpenn designed it for. I'm sorry i can't help you much, as i have an att atrix, but im pretty sure that the bell atrix is not supported with greyblur. sorry
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GibMcFragger:
Not true. I am running Greyblur on my Bell Atrix and it's working fine on Bell. The telstra sbf and french 2.1.1 sbf both work flawlessly on the Bell Atrix.

Flash the french 2.1.1 sbf and then you can flash Greyblur fine. Once you have Greyblur on it, you now have the ATT framework so you can flash any theme you like from the theme forum. Trust me. Look at my sig, I am running it fine.

Flash French U4_2.1.1 sbf with RSD Lite

Add the Bell APN so you have working data.

Root, install CWM

Flash Greyblur

Apply the Greyblur tweaks

Flash theme (if you want) :)

All the info can be found in this thread, which you already found. The only thing is you need to flash the french sbf to work with Greyblur, not the Telstra sbf:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1070076
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GibMcFragger:
One other thing. Did you do a data wipe from CWM after installing Greyblur? You MUST MUST MUST do a data wipe/factory reset from CWM after flashing Greyblur BEFORE YOU REBOOT or you will get a boot loop.

So in short.

Flash Greyblur from Tenfar's CWM.

While STILL IN CWM, do a data wipe/factory reset.

reboot phone.

enjoy Greyblur
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eXecuter.bin:
Thank you very much for your guidence, I did not know about the step where one must wipe the cache after installation. Thanks again for your assistence.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GibMcFragger:
No problem. If you don't wipe it..........it goes boom when you try and boot Greyblur the first time. :D

I think it's because it changes the Bell framework to the ATT one.

Once you have Greyblur on there you can flash any theme you find here and don't have to worry about doing a wipe again. It's only flashing Greyblur that you have to wipe. Personally I like the Cool blue theme. It looks awesome.

Good luck!

Cheers
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Amarquez17:
So I've been having trouble trying to download an app I need. It's available in the stock Barnes & Noble App store as well as on the Android/Amazin marketplace for Honeycomb users. It's called Drawing Pad by Murtha Design and the little kid demands to have it! I've tried installing Froyo, Gingerbread and Honeycomb - my device shows up as "incompatible." I keep getting an error when trying to spoof my build.prop file into thinking it's a Motorola Xoom. I'm getting tired of trying to download this single app - so annoying! Does anyone know if it would be possible to go back to the stock ROM, download it and then save ithe APK onto my PC or SD card? From there install Honeycomb again and then try to install it? Better yet would it be possible for someone to buy it from their Xoom, transfer to SD and share the apk with me? Not sure if that's allowed but I would appreciate it beyond belief -.-
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] framitz:
I used the file from here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1050520

to flash my rooted NC back to stock with CWM. CWM makes it easy to flash new roms with no need of a bootable SD.

Then I registered and whatnot followed by installing all my Nook apps. Once all the apps were installed I flashed MN 4.5.6

Since then I've flashed the newer MN followed by an overclocked kernel and other stuff.

The market will offer to update Nook apps that are on market, do not let the market update the apps.

Also Once everything is set to your liking avoid archiving Nook apps, there is a chance that it will not reinstall due to application space usage. I found that moving apps to SD helps with this, but do not move Nook apps to SD as they will show up as available to install again in Nook apps.
[Droid 2 Global General] hgrimberg:
I am using the D2G outside the US with a GSM carrier that of course it is not Verizon. As it has been reported, (a lot in Canada with Rogers) the signal reception is very weak and it almost makes the phone unusable. On the other hand, the Milestone from Brazil and Argentina (maybe in other american countries as well) that comes with the same US bands 850 and 1900 is ok in terms of signal strength.

So, is there a way to edit the baseband parameters so that it adapts to my GSM carrier in my country? I mean the baseband must be a bunch of folders and files somewhere in the system directory, right? If so, it could be just like editing the build.prop or modding any other system file... Is there a way to try with different parameters until we match the american Milestone ones? Or maybe better, find out which parameters are in the Brazilian/Argentinean Milestone and copy them to the baseband in the D2G?

I am almost on the verge of not using the D2G anymore due to all of these GSM reception issues.
[Droid 2 Global General] hgrimberg:
So, nobody knows how to mod the baseband?
[Droid 2 Global General] leobg:
Baseband (radio firmware) just like the bootloader and the kernel is signed. Even if we had another baseband to try, it won't work until signed.
[Droid 2 Global General] hgrimberg:
Hummm, so this is what Motorola is locking and not allowing anybody to mess with. So it means that if one day somebody successfully unlocks the bootloader then we will be able to try other radio firmwares like the one from the Milestone 2, right?

Does this depend on a leak from some Motorola employee that can eventually happen in the future?
[Droid 2 Global General] linyaho:
If moto release an update with Unlocked bootloader, will there be any chance to make changes to the baseband?
[Droid 2 Global General] hgrimberg:
Can we make changes on the baseband/radio firmware now with this new 2nd Init hack that somehow unlocks the bootloader?
[Droid 2 Global General] rusty815:
no, 2nd init doesnt give us access to the kernel, which is where the firmware is located
[Droid 2 Global General] leobg:
Radio firmware is in a signed area of the flash just like the kernel. Until bootloader is unlocked, retail phone won't accept unsigned radio image. But even if that's done, you still need the sources of the radio firmware to find and iron out the bugs. Since this is a closed code software, it is doubtful we will ever see these sources. It is Motorola only who can fix these bugs. Since there is a mentioning of an improved radio firmware in the upcoming Gingerbread update, it is very likely they have fixed the major issues. Let's just wait and see.
[Droid 2 Global General] hgrimberg:
Well, let's hope the improved radio firmware is not just for Europe/India as they stated in the list of improvements from the Gingerbread update. I wonder if Motorola is aware of this issue for the Americas or if they just think it only happens in Europe and India. I complained a few times in their forums but never got a response from them.
