To be honest its not advisable to get to 1.92. Too unstable and performance gains over 1.4 are minimal. If you want fast, run perfect storm 1.4 with ziggys kernel oc to 1.4. Gingerbread roms are nice but unstable and the accompanying radio is horrendous. Finally the gb kernels are not good yet since the source has not dropped.

[Thunderbolt General] idkwhothatis123:
Thanks! I waited for the lg revolution and that thing is a total bust. Excited!
[Thunderbolt General] Jaxidian:
I personally like Imoseyon's kernels best. Lots of good ROMs available. Play with your options and see what suits you best. :)
[Thunderbolt General] idkwhothatis123:
Is the Netflix app available for non gingerbread roms?
[Thunderbolt General] Jaxidian:
I don't believe so. If you're asking because of the radio issue, check out CM7. It's Gingerbread and has a working Netflix but without the brick risk.
[Thunderbolt General] idkwhothatis123:
Aren't there inoperable features in that though? And will any oc gb kernel work with it?
[Thunderbolt General] Jaxidian:
It's not prefect, but no rom is. The main problems are:

1) toggling from wifi to mobile data requires a reboot, although there are reports that this has been fixed

2) some people experience buggy data connections while many do not

Not any kernel will work but Imoseyon's does and is quite good (arguably better than on Sense roms). There are others as well.

While it's pushed as pre-alpha, it's plenty stable enough to run as a daily driver. Many people do. I would rather run it than a Sense 2.1 rom.
[Thunderbolt General] idkwhothatis123:
Agreed. I hate sense overall, but love the dev support on htc. Thanks for the responses man. Appreciate it.
[Thunderbolt General] Quantas:
I've been using CM7 for about a week now, there was an update on Saturday that fixed the wi-fi and data connections work fine. Only problem I noticed was going into an "Extended Network" area caused 3G to drop, but if you enable international data roaming it connects back to 3G.
[Thunderbolt General] idkwhothatis123:
Lol random work around but good looking out!
[Thunderbolt General] Quantas:
Yeah, it's strange but it fixed my lack of 3G/Data!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LeoTheRomRasta:
Can someone please direct me to a thread that would explain you me what the benefits of cm7 are over any other toxic or trigger or some flashable rom like those ive been digging and cant find a consensus on weather or not its worth trying just keeps seeming like a more difficult way to make my rom more stock like. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Thanks
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoffcorey:
The only way to truly understand what CM7 is about is to actually try it for yourself.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xriderx66:
^ Exactly, it won't hurt you or your phone.

FLASH IT. TRY IT. DONT LIKE IT? SWITCH BACK.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheSneakerWhore:

Its so easy to install with rom manager premium. Come on flash cm 7 u know u wanna...lol
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LeoTheRomRasta:
I was going to download it via rom manager but wasn't there in the list of devs? I am certain I'm a premium user bought it legit from the market I can manage the long route for install I'm just curiouse is it more or less just an aosp? I understand to just try it. I'm just giddy and don't have the resources for the next few weeks to afford to take the chance on having issues with install if its just more or less stock miui or sonething. I understand the just try it view just had a nooob inquiry before I proceeded to do so lol :-D
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Abu-7abash:

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LeoTheRomRasta:
Actually went back to stock via odin after cm7 wouldnt register on the network... Any ideas thoight it was sexy aside from that little bug (or error on install on my behalf)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] movieaddict:
reflash cm 7 again but dont pick 9-11 nightlies as there pointless. pick 6-8 nightlies as there good and stable in my opinion. When installing on ur first try make sure u check off all three, wipe data, wipe dalvik, and backup rom and then on ur second nightlie install u dont have to do the data wipe but make sure u check off the other 2! I hope this helps as Cm7 is worth it!

Clock Updates

I recently traveled to Los Angeles with my TF. When I turned on my TF and connected to WiFi, I expected it to update the time based on the GPS location. It did not.

So I checked the clock settings, and it is set to auto-update the time (Network time I think it's called). Curiously, it's set to -5 Central Time (which -6 is Central, -5 is Eastern). Not sure why, but this was a pretty odd setting to me.

GPS

This is more of a curiosity question. In the air, I decided to see where I was. I figured, "I have a GPS in my tablet, it should be able to tell me where I am." I was wrong! It was not able to grab a satellite while in the air, which seems silly to me.

Is it a true GPS or does it get location data from somewhere else? Seems to me like it SHOULD work in an airplane, but I might not understand the technology appropriately.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Susido:
It is typically rather difficult to get a workable GPS signal on an aircraft. You generally need to be right up against a south facing window.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] shadowjin:
Ive also noticed that if your moving it doesnt grab the signal as good as if your connected Via a mobile hotspot or your cell. The only way it works flawlessly, is if you turn the map on standing still to see the area where your at.

Like the commercial where they get stranded and the guy holding the Transformer gets out of the car and turns on GPS and it locks on. if i do that , it works perfectly but moving in a car it fails to update on time as i move
[Eee Pad Transformer General] johantheolive:
Other thing to keep in mind is that the system uses A-GPS where it uses the data connection to download info on the current locations of the GPS satellites therefore equaling a much faster lock on. If you don't have a data connection, naturally you'd find it take longer to lock on. I've tried the GPS sitting in my room, a good 15 feet from a shaded window and I can lock on 9 or so satellites relatively quickly. I imagine that your movement speed also affects the lock speed and a plane is usually moving a little bit.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] EtherBoo:
Good to know about the GPS, thank you.

So what's up with the Clock not updating and claiming CST is -5 GMT?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Rumbleweed:
Many commercial gps chips have a relatively low max speed limit. They are ok for normal vehicle travel, but will not work in aircraft or other high speed vehicles. This is by design. Prevents them from being used for military purposes
[Eee Pad Transformer General] the_gunner:
Only 1 time have I been able to successfully get a GPS lock while in the air, using my old WinMo phone + a BT GPS receiver, while on a flight to HI.

The GPS chip was accurately measuring the speed at ~600 MPH. I don't think there are limits until you get into the supersonic (missile speed) range.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] EtherBoo:
So what's with the clock since the GPS question has been answered?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] LightningXCE:
Sorry, I know this is slightly old, but as far as I know it's because of DST.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Rumbleweed:
was daylight saving time set. Also remember some locations in the US do not use DST. Check your settings. It does not read actual local, time, but rather reads GMT and does the math. If you give it the wrong inputs, it will give you the wrong answer.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krish7919:
Hi,

I am using an un-rooted Nexus One phone with Froyo (2.2.1).

The camera has stopped working unexpectedly.

Whenever I start the camera app, it gives me the error:

"Activity Camers (in application Camera) is not working"

It gives me the option to wait, force close or report.

If I select wait, it just hangs in there and pops the above msg again.

If I force close the app, and try to start it again, I get the error:

"Cannot connect to camera"

The phone did not fall down and is always handled properly.

This happened all of a sudden.

The last thing I did with the phone was to copy songs to the SD card.

I have factory reset the phone twice and formatted SD card, even swapped SD cards, but no luck yet.

I am based in India, the phone was bought in the US, I have no warranty.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dude Random21:
Sorry but I think your camera just died it is possible for the camera to die without any physical abuse but it is uncommon. The only other thing I can recommend would be to root and install a custom ROM (or at least a kernel) and see what happens but I don't think it will fix it.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krish7919:
Resolved....

Thanks Dude Random21..!!

Actually, I just resolved the issue about 30 mins ago.. Was downloading the apps and restoring its state as it was before I had factory reset it.

Well, after doing everything related to software to fix the issue, I concluded that it might be a hardware issue.

So, I started to search for threads involving camera hardware issues.

I took hints from the following post:

Google "Camera on my Nexus One not working - no flash either...all apps that use camera also not working - Help!?!?! " and you will be lucky.. ;)

(I cannot post links as I am a newbie)

Saw all videos on youtube about nexus teardown and just finished doing it.

I checked all the connections/internal wiring on the phone and once done, rebooted the phone and it worked.. :D

Unfortunately my phone received a couple of scratches along the way, so others should be more careful about it.

Thanks for your help.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dude Random21:
No problem, I do what I can to help out. And good for you for having the guts to fix your nexus one's hardware cause I'm pretty sure that if I had an issue like that I would't have the guts to tear it down myself even with ifixit.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] canyon500:
Remove (renaming is better) the DCIM directory from SDCARD. It is probably a corrupted (or incompatible with 2.3) file. After that, the camera cames back to life, then you can copy your “Camera” directory to the new DCIM directory created by your phone.

Lockscreen 3.0 problem

I'm on revolution 5.18 and have had the same issue. All I did was remove the battery for a few minutes and it never reoccurred. I suspect doing a wipe will give you the same result.

Seen this happen on RCmix, usually a manual wipe followed by reflashing sorts it. Titanium backup breaks it to sometimes. See the RCmix thread first post for how to manual wipe if you don't already know.

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dreamcaster012:
Hey all, looking to getting a new phone and considering WP7. For Android converts, what made you switch and are you happy?I'm just upset that Verizon is just now getting the HTC Trophy because I feel like it's already outdated. Are all current WP7 going to see the Mango update? Thanks!
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dtboos:
I moved from Android and am very happy. Best UI design by far, most pleasing experience in day to day use, and almost everything I missed feature wise is coming in the Mango update. So coming from Android you will notice quickly many things missing, but they are not far off.

Once you use a wp7 device for just a few minutes you can really see where they are going with this platform, and it looks very promising. Looking towards Mango and beyond (Windows 8, Windows Phone OS8, XBOX Media Center ect) I see what this platform/ ecosystem is going to become, and I think it will be the best overall [for me]. I will never go back to Android, and yes all current devices will get the Mango update.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] domineus:
surprisingly, the majority of android users are those that sort of got forced into android from c/s agents. That said, I did do a bit of things with android, and hated every second of it save from miui (which I completely loved)

Android, to me, was a stop gap to getting windows phone 7 because I knew it was coming eventually. And going back to android when I didin't have a phone was hell. Miui couldn't save me from that opinion...which is weird
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dreamcaster012:
My only option on Verizon is the Trophy which isn't really the best. Perhaps I'll just wait to get a Mango phone right out the box.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] domineus:
I don't think the trophy is a bad device

world phone can use any gsm good form factor

screen is crap but I think the world phone aspect makes it very attractive
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PottsyNZ:
I came over from Android stock 2.2 to a Trophy

Pro's:

UI is nice, doesn't feel as hackish/homebrewy as Android

Seems very fast, IE in particlar.

Cons:

Bing, ergh.

AD2p profiles are lacking, no video sound over bluetooth

App market has a weird selection.

I'm hoping mango solves some of my issues, for example being bale to download podcasts straight to the device (like Google Listen) would nice..sounds like Mango is going to do this. Web app market will be nice, as I'm getting a subset of what I think is out there (maybe it's just region locked to the hills because I'm in NZ..dunno)

As for the Trophy itself...nice build...snappy...if you can get it for a good price..do so..

[Trophy General] dreamcaster012:
With new WP7 devices coming does anyone feel like the trophy is a bit old to buy now and lock in a two year contract? Do we know if it's getting Mango?
[Trophy General] Avandor:
All WP7 devices will get Mango.
[Trophy General] mikeeam:
Actually, WP7 doesn't need better specs right now. Every device is going to get Mango. No worry. The phone will survive these 2 years.
[Trophy General] GadgetMan2011:
Why would you think that?

If you read the announcements carefully, you will see that it sounds like one of the big things about the new devices is going to be that they are cheap. Think "smaller screen size, smaller flash card size, etc.".

Considering that I was using TP2 till last week, and it was still working just fine - no Trophy is no "obsolete". If you keep thinking like that - you can never buy an electronic device. There is always something newer and better that's coming out.
[Trophy General] dreamcaster012:
True. I just played with one at Verizon an hour or so ago -- I liked it overall. I guess my only question is there any way to replace the stock keyboard? I don't think WP7 allows things like that -- I didn't like how in the texting application that the keyboard was above the soft menu buttons, and that it doesn't extend the width of the screen in landscape. I'd eventually get used to it, but it seems stupid not to use the entire screen real estate for the keyboard.
[Trophy General] ca2l3vin:
they do that to give room for the soft menu keys at the bottom and the notification bar(which is default hidden) for signal, profile, and battery. If they take the whole screen it could cause one of these to possibly not be viewable while texting.

all and all this is a different beast from android. WP7 requires less powerful specs to run and all windows phones will continue to be supported for a long time. no need to fear being obselete with these devices...now android on the other hand seems to need dual core if it has any UI customizations on it at all.

Just an opinion but after moving from the android to WP7 im very pleased.
[Trophy General] redmatt:
I have heard that swype and other keyboards are coming when mango is released. But I can honestly say that the MS keyboard is one of the best keyboards I have used on a phone. Granted I loved swype on my 6.5 and Android phone, this keyboard is pretty awesome.
[HTC Inspire 4G] trell959:
I think I'm ready .I've been making modded patches and programs from scratch for Xbox 360 (I know, I know, its nothing compared to this) Just have no clue where to start. And I don't want to built it from a kitchen I want a full ground up. Just a few pointers would be nice.

EDIT : should I just start with a kitchen?
[HTC Inspire 4G] mudknot2005:
best advice I can give you is, learn anything and everything you can about linux, and check out the android chef forum.
[HTC Inspire 4G] trell959:
Baby steps. I think it would be a good decision to start with a kitchen. Just to get more familiar with things. Then gradually get deeper into it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] hyun18:
Well, maybe you could start from already-made ROMS? if permitted...

Unless you wanna start from scratch...

I dont know haha, Ive only been planning to make skins soo XD
[HTC Inspire 4G] trell959:
That's one thing I didn't want to do. If I was going to start from a rom, it would be rotted stock most likely
[HTC Inspire 4G] dotsoa:
I'd say that with the android kitchen (somewhere on xda) to get your feet wet. You'll see some new terms you may haven't seen before and some of the basics of rom making.Eventually your gonna have to decompile apk's to be able to to xml edits and have to recompile them (so much fun :p) and kernel compiling. If your stuck on doing something and a already released rom has that feature i say take a look inside the rom and see where you could start (not copying and pasting) to get that feature working in your rom.

I'm sure there's differnet approaches to learning rom making, i did it this way on my LG Ally which is how i have an understanding of how rom making works. Plan on doing this with my Inspire and sense based roms. I should also note i do this for personal knowdledge gain so anything i cook up is never released. :p

I'd also take a dab into learning some linux as well. Espically if you ever have to use adb shell, having a understanding of linux commands will be a plus
