[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] me2freedom:
Hello,

I'm wondering for quite a time why the camera is so slow.

It can do about EVERYTHING but if you want to make some pictures of a moving thing passing by, you are ALWAYS too late.

The only thing I found that helped a bit was a custom camera app from the market which speeds up the camera a little bit by decreasing the resolution.

Is this due to a slow SD-card?

Navigation maps for example load instantly and doesn't shutter at all.

The question is thus if there is any way to take pictures faster, because my k800i was certainly not slower with taking photo's.

BTW: I'm running RemiX10 rom, Min 122MHZ Max 748MHZ quadrant score 97X

Thanks in advance,

Me2freedom

I have a cdma htc hero i tried to flash a radio dont remember witch one but now it wont turn on or charge is there anything i can do to get it to turn back on
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] user7618:
If you flashed a GSM radio, then no. You are the proud owner of a Hero shaped paperweight. Find a link to the radio thread. It may make it easier to see if we can fix it.

For those of you who have rooted, we learned today that for the time being, you won't be able to utilize the movie rental service that Google unveiled earlier this month. When attempting to rent a movie from the Android Market on a rooted device, you will be greeted with the message, Failed to fetch license for [movie title] (error 49). This is due to requirements related to copyright protection.

More information:

DAMMIT!! Good thing I have netflix!
[myTouch 4G General] OuncE718:
Same here, although its good to know if I ever unroot and cancel my Netflix subscription for whatever reason I'll have the choice of renting from the market. Kudos to Google!
[myTouch 4G General] vabeach454:
Oh Well... Netflix is great. I am not going to unroot to be able to rent a movie. :rolleyes:
[myTouch 4G General] kimbernator:
Not a chance that I'm unrooting so that I can pay ludicrous prices to have a one day rental that can only be watched on my phone.
[myTouch 4G General] AndrewAD3:
Agreed. The price for one movie is almost 5 dollars. I wouldn't rent a movie even if I wasn't rooted.
[myTouch 4G General] kimbernator:
But I don't think this is a swing at rooted users by Google, they fully support the hacking and modding community. It's just the dang verification by the movie companies. (What difference does it make if it will otherwise work on all phones?)
[myTouch 4G General] Kline:
My thoughts exactly...When I heard of the rental service I thought it may be a cool feature, but then I looked at the prices and never thought twice. Who would ever pay $5 for a phone only 24hr rental when you can Redbox something for $1 and have it on a nice bigscreen at home? I'm sure there has to be a market someplace or they wouldn't roll the service out to begin with, but I'm certainly not part of it lol.
[myTouch 4G General] PureH2O:
Makes sense why Google did that but it still sucks ass.

Damnit! This sucks!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] gmlai:
I found a workaround to watch video from Megavideo on my iPad, who can’t handle flash sites, like x10 mini.

So I wondered if I could watch Megavideo on x10 mini too.

Well, the workaround for iPad or iPhone can be found here: http://www.cattanisimone.it/imegavideos/guide.html

On x10 mini, using the default browser go the the link above and follow “not jayibroken”.

Follow steps from 3: default browser and user agent are ok.

Install a player compatible with flv, I tried with VitalPlayer.

Open a video page on Megavideo, for example: http://www.megavideo.com/?v=52CDJXWF

If you open the bookmark created on step 5 you will get the link to the flv video file.

Copy the link and past it on the browser address bar, download will start.

Once download is completed you can use a player compatible with flv to watch it on your x10 mini.

Now I am looking for a player who let me watch video streamings, if you find it let me know.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] DustArma:
Have you tried just watching the video using SkyFire? It has support for most flash videos.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] gmlai:
DustArma, have you tried? Sorry, but SkyFire does NOT open video from Megavideo.

Anyway, with the workaround above we can find out the direct link to the flv file behind the flash stuff and we can download that file.

If we find a player that can manage streamings we will be able to watch video without downloading it first.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] DustArma:
Apparently it could in theory watch videos from Megavideo, but Megavideo blocks Skyfire.

"Megavideo restricts video availability to our servers."

Though I don't know of any player that can let you watch streaming video, I know the default android player can when you watch HTML5 videos, but not anything else.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbuchho90:
So I just picked up a Thunderbolt, and am in the process of rooting it using this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1005292

I went through all the steps and did everything correctly. Step three resulted in the phone rebooting like it should, but when I went to Rom Manager to "fix permissions", it says "error occurred while attempting to run privileged commands!" I'm assuming that means I didn't obtain full root...but am I safe to run steps 2 and 3 on that program again? It says on that thread do NOT redo step 1, but it says nothing about redoing step 2?

Also, I've downloaded Busybox and that didn't fix the problem. Titanium also says it cannot obtain root. Lastly, I've tried step 3 on the rooter several times, and it still does not work.

thanks for anyone that helps!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] micompcs:
Reflash PG05IMG.zip through the recovery console. Easiest way to get there is to power off the device, press and hold volume down and the power button together until you see the recovery screen. It will search for the .zip file and load it, press volume up to start the update. Once it is finished, reboot the device and check for root.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DROIDLIFELIFE:
does it work on the new release update 1.13.605.7
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loonatik78:
The thread clearly states what versions it will not work on, and if you got yours in The last few weeks.... Especially if you did the OTA update, that will NOT work. The only option I know of that works on the latest OTA updates is the method at the very top of the XDA development thread using ADB and the 3 zips that you download. It works. It works good, but you have to have your machine set up with the Android SDK first and have the HTC drivers that come with HTC sync. There's threads that explain setting all that up. Once done, its good to use ADB to connect to The phone and run some simple commands like getting the device serial number. If ADB can pull the serial number off the phone, you're good to go and proceed with the root.

They did change some things with the newest updates. Even some of the older manual rooting instructions don't work, like those on the theMikMik.com.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j2daake:
I'm having the same exact problem as bbuchho90 is. I did the OTA update recently, and my firmware version was 1.12.605.7, the instructions said it wouldn't work if your firmware version was 1.12.605.9 or over. After I unsuccessfully rooted it, my firmware version is 1.12.605.6. Also, despite not being rooted, I have S-OFF.

Also, I tried reflashing PG05IMG.zip like micompcs recommended, but that didn't work either.

DROIDLIFELIFE, I wouldn't do it, as that's what version I had and it didn't work.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] micompcs:
Do you have super user in your app drawer?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j2daake:
I know I'm not the OP, and you're asking him this question, but since we have the same issue, I suppose I can answer for him. It is in my app drawer. I've been trying to root it the normal way for the last hour, but I'm still learning about adb.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loonatik78:
It's not the fast or easy way, but it's the way that works and the way you'll get the best help in getting done if you have a problem.

I just flashed to Bolts of Photons with Clockwork and my TB is stuck on the HTC load screen. I was running BAMF remix 1.6.3. I kept getting random reboots so I thought I'd give something different a try.

Is there anything I can do to get off this screen or am I screwed?
[LG Optimus 2x] Soldi3rxx:
Just got the G2X coming from a Samsung Vibrant. I already rooted my phone using superone click but i'm completely new and unsure of what to do to get roms on my device, I would like to try the unofficial gingerbread of possibly bionix. Any help would be greatly apperciated.
[LG Optimus 2x] xmoo:
Install rom manager from the market.
[LG Optimus 2x] Kickasskev:
And also I would try going on to the G2x forum, as flash our software could lead to devistation :-)
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
As above, stuff for the O2X will leave you without a radio.

One thing I will say is to use NVFlash to install your recovery, ROM Manager uses fake flash on the G2X so you can't boot into it.
[Defy Android Development] K3n H1mur4:
Hey guys, can somebody help me here? I was using the leaked Orange Gingerbread, but decided that battery drain, non-720p and constant bugs were not worth it. Decided to downgrade it to Brazilian Vivo's Official Froyo, flashed full sbf (I also applied the leaked GB over Barebones using full sbf), but now all I get is a bootloop. IT shows splash screen, shows boot animation, than gets back to the begining of the boot animation, without showing the splash screen.

Is there any way for me to get an official firmware, or can I only use custom ones, now? I kinda like BLUR, so I'd like to have a firmware with it enabled.
[Defy Android Development] vick33:
Did you wiped with the stock recovery before flashing brazilian sbf?
[Defy Android Development] K3n H1mur4:
No, I didn't. Since I didn't need to wipe to upgrade, I didn't think it was needed for downgrade.
[Defy Android Development] vick33:
Then try to wipe now. it should work after it:D
[Defy Android Development] K3n H1mur4:
I'm being able to access stock recovery (options: apply update.zip - as we all know, only motorola-signed files / wipe data/factory reset / wipe cache partition) and fastboot (or whatever we call the mode we use to flash the SBFs). Should I perform the wipes? Is there any firmware I can flash to solve the issue? Flashed Korean Eclair, the same bootloop issue.
[Defy Android Development] K3n H1mur4:
Should I apply both wipes? Isn't it gonna brick my phone or anything like that?
[Defy Android Development] vick33:
enter into the stock recovery by pressing volume down.

then the droid guy appears press both volume up and down, then select wipe data cache.
[Defy Android Development] K3n H1mur4:
Didn't have to wipe, it booted normally. I flashed the korean SBF, got bootloop too, than flashed brazilian SBF again and now everything's working :)
[Defy Android Development] antony.ps:
If you just wipe data and cache, there's no need to go to 2 or 3 SBF before.
[Defy Android Development] marhensa:
if you want to go to another SBF,

it is really necessary to DO A WIPE DATA and WIPE CACHE from STOCK RECOVERY.

sometimes it works without wipe, but sometimes don't.

so it is safe to do a wipe before flashing sbf or restoring nandroid.
[Defy Android Development] eugene373:
Above it Correct!!

I've not seen one SBF that wipes Data nor Cache which is needed anytime you make a change in the System Version, yes sometimes it will boot, but almost always will have issue later down the road.

~Eugene
[Defy Android Development] IamX:
I found same your problem.

After that.

- I wipe all data with stock recovery - I reboot to bootloader.

- flash 3.4.3-11 with sbf

everything ok!

Now,I rooted and update to CM7.

Anybody know why this happens or what a solution is. I am using an AOSP build and I installed facebook and told it to sync with existing contacts. Some of the contacts it will not sync with. The names and email are exactly as they are on facebook. On the sense based rom, the htc facebook for sense would sync all of them so I know it is a software issue but I don't know of any way to fix it. I can do a factory reset and sync my google contacts then install facebook and tell it to sync to existing, and now there will be different contacts that it doesn't sync with. In other words the first time it would sync with John Doe but not Jane Doe. I can do a full data wipe and redo it and this time around it will sync with Jane Doe but not John Doe.

[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] choudu1:
Hi all

On of my friends has miui running on his htc desire. As well all know both desire and milestone on stock roms does not have very good i/o. But on his desire with an ext3 partition had a beastly i/o. I mean really beastly. His i/o was the same as his processor score pushing the quadrant total way past 2000. So why is the i/o on miui so fast? Is it because of that i/o performance patch on miui? And can us milestone/droid users share the supercharged i/o love
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] m0jo:
What do you mean by I/O? Input/Output? Which Input? Which Output? SDCard I/O? User interaction?

Please be more specific :P
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] skadude66:
I think he might mean UI..
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] choudu1:
Nope I mean i/o input output. And this is based on the quadrant benchmarks and I can't get my head around how his i/o score is over 1000.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] skadude66:
Depending on which ROM you have, you can get over 1000 in Quadrant. I was able to on Cronos 1.3.0, FroyoMOD 2.7.0 and iceandfire 2.2
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] choudu1:
How? I'm on iceandfire too but me I/o isn't that high and I have working ext3 on my SD card
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] skadude66:
What scores do you get? With Quadrant, you need to run it about 3 times to get a fully consistent result.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] choudu1:
I get about 250-3300

Oops. That's meant to be 250-300

First of all, Quadrant sucks. Let's start by clearing that up. :)

You can cheat, especially with the I/O score. Here is how:

http://www.androidcentral.com/how-cheat-android-benchmarks

With CM7 and 1GHz, I get 1000.

I have my Android HD2 and I've been using it for over a year now and use it only on android. Yes i understand how to flash roms and it does have clockwork installed. I used the Cyanogen 7 latest rom and flashed it to that only about a month ago and I thought it was doing fine until like a few days ago i tried touching the screen and it did not work? Most of the time the screen is not responsive in the unlock screen but there are times when it will work. Heres the thing, this only occurs when i use the harware buttons along the bottom then the touch screen fails to work on the next multiple attempts but maybe 10 minutes later it will work. Once the phone is unlocked from the touch screen it has no problems. Only when the screen goes off again does it have a problem.
