[Optimus One, P500, V General] android_beast:
How its possible that someone using a 800Mhz phone is getting a quadrant score more than nexus one??? I m using optimus net rooted but not overclocked on stock i got 1000+ on quadrant standard and 1200+ on quadrant advanced.. showing i have more score than nexus one and even evo2.2+ how its possible ..??? Is this app is showing wrong info??
[Optimus One, P500, V General] scottypeterson:
Quadrant scores don't really mean anything. The application is always giving inconsistent scores and it just depends on how well the phone feels to you. Heck for example I had and lg Optimus s at one point and was getting a score of 1400+ and now I only get 900-1000 with my Evo 4g.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ashishv:
Antutu benchmark is more reliable.:cool:
[Optimus One, P500, V General] terratrix:
It's because of stagefright and gingerbread . The nexus one and evo were only froyo.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] aayushARM:
Mine was very low in stock V20C ROM, only 720-780. After flashing OpenOptimus, it has gone up to 1550-1620-smartass & sometimes it's 1700+............:D
[Optimus One, P500, V General] android_beast:
Hmmm it seems that its due to OS ... thanks for ur rply guys..

Ayushsoni... do u feeling any performance difference after flashing OpenOptimus..at this high score r u feeling difference in playing games specially asphalt5 and angrybirds rio..??

Sometimes i feel that angrybirds contains bug..its very small game i found lags in my optimus one and 50% lesser lags in optimus net...but i m playing hd games (nfs shift ,asphalt5hd) with rarely any lag...
[Optimus One, P500, V General] amao10:
using quadrant advance... the one with many colors:D

-Cm7 6.5.8 + gbs.19.2 + ungaze d2sd + patched libsqlite + 806 mhz savageZen + sd speed boost 2048

i got a score of 2.5K...
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Human_dude_007:
Lmao at ungaze ..its fake ..completely fake n buggy..
[Optimus One, P500, V General] shubhamjain001:

2.5K on optimus one ??? IMPOSSIBLE !!!:D
[Optimus One, P500, V General] amao10:
for me and my O1... ungaze is the most stable mod to move the apps to sd partition:)... no bugs, unless you change the rom wherein all the apps inside the partition will be erased....

by using ungaze d2sd and patched libsqlite it can greatly increase the result of benchmarking apps scores :) you can try and see the difference... both files also makes my o1 smoother to scroll:eek:
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] subfannz:
Hi all, 1st time poster here...

I have an Ideos u8150d from 2degrees in New Zealand... I have in the past beenusing Clockwork Mod to change my ROMS as required.. but I got to a point where Ineeded toflash it back to a standard ROM, and after this I have not been able to use ClockworkMod as before.

When I attempt to flash it from the menu and get the choice of mobiles to clash to, the 8150 is no longer there, and any other I choose just hangs with backlit screen when rebooting into recovery.

Have I got the wrong ROM (even tho I got it from the Huawei site) and this is why I cannot see the 8150 in the options?

Phone is not bricked, but just not as usable (for me) as it is.

Any help would be great, cheers.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Archer:
Titanium Backup will do everything you asked for (I recomment the Pro version and you MUST be rooted).

It will backup and restore apps and data, and will also freeze or uninstall any app.

It's on the market for free, but I really do recommend paying the small amount for the full version.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krabman:
+1 Ti is one of the few apps I would recommend to anyone that wants to flash roms. You can backup all your apps and settings before a flash and then restore quickly and easily. The freeze function is very handy also. IMO you buy this one and never look back. A MUST HAVE.

A nand backup will be used to restore the phone as it already exists. It does not backup apps and settings specifically but you can pull apks and such out of one. Basically you do a nand before you start playing around and if you screw something up or just take an instant dislike to the new rom you flashed you can go into recovery and restore that nand and your phone will be just like you never did anything. It will not however back up your radio.

What I do is backup a few apps data separately and then go into Ti and backup all my apps and system data. I boot into recovery and I make a nand. Then I go over to usb storage and I move the entire contents of the sd over to my computer. This will have both the nand and the Ti backup on it. I delete the entire internal storage after I have taken a quick look to make sure that the backup on my pc is good. This gives me a completely fresh base to start a new rom from. Once I have the new rom flashed I move my ti backup over and restore. I then move the other data that the backup contains that I want back on the phone over and I'm up and running. I keep my music and other stuff that is just going to move from one flash to the next on my sd card as it isnt wiped in the process even if you do a hard reset and it can just stay there without the hassle of backing it up and restoring it. Do not delete your backup until you are sure that you have everything you may want back across to your phone. I usually keep it until the next rom when I start the process over with a new backup.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CaesiumX:
@JJEgan - which part

@johncmolyneux ,@krabman - thnx guys

so int. usb storage will also be wiped in the process, right?

also can u clarify

- How to get cwm recovery menu screen from PHONE Switched OFF state(like we see by using the function from cwm app -> reboot into CWM rec)

- how can i delete samsung hub apps by editing system and framework files(or if any other file for that matter)?

[HTC Sensation] Scoop24:
Have you notice any difference with the screens. similar to the mt4g issue?

Im coming up on the end my remorse period thinking about doing a exchange because of the unresponsive lockscreen issuei had yesterday. Just want to make sure there isnt a bad screen version out there.
[HTC Sensation] kfgtboypsp:
All I can say is ask for one thats made in China. But Most HTC phones are made in Taiwan and the screens they use there are made from the brand Sharp. And the ones made in China are made from Sony. I might exchange it too. My mytouch 4G that was made in China had better viewing angles, deeper blacks, and the colors being more vibrant. And everything opposite from the one I exchanged that was made in Taiwan. If you do exchange it, take pictures first. Then compare it to the new one. Make sure u ask if they have some made in China. I feeling they do. Post your reseults after comparing them.
[HTC Sensation] Mainspring:
mine is made in Taiwan and the screen looks great.

good viewing angles.

no problems.

made in Taiwan vs. China was MT4G issue, not sure if it follows on the Sensation.
[HTC Sensation] tenbeau:
I am on my third one and there is an obvious difference.in screens and overall performance.This last one has much better viewing angles and more vibrant picture. I had the Mt4g for a short time and it took five of those to get a decent screen. This device screen reminds me of the fiasco that took place with the Mt4g Seems HTC just cannot get the displays consistent. Mine is from Taiwan made on 6/3/11. So far except for a couple of minor glitches this one(the third) seems good. I really do like this phone, I hope it continues to function flawlessly so that it is a keeper. I probably would not go for a fourth go around.:)
[HTC Sensation] Shaquiel Harris:
Seems like most of the devices that has a shipping date starting in June is better.. mines has the shipping date of 5/24 and I have the crazy WiFi issue.. now I know what date to look for. Thanks guys.
[HTC Sensation] _kansei_:
Good to know regarding ship dates to look for
[HTC Sensation] jrwingate6:
Mine was shipped 5/30 from China and I have no problems with it. Great WiFi signal and a beautiful display that is extremely bright in direct sunlight. It's actually there best display I have ever used in direct sunlight. I thought the Super AMOLED was supposed to perform better in sunlight but my Vibrant didn't look any where near as good. The G2X I compared her to couldn't hold a candle in direct sunlight.
[HTC Sensation] Scoop24:
This is what I was looking for . With mt4g the one I had made from china. The one from taiwan had the screen issues.
[HTC Sensation] kfgtboypsp:
OK I'm exchanging mines for a China one. My screen has bad viewing angles. And the whites don't seem white. But more of a yellow tinge. :-(
[HTC Sensation] mike2518:
So if yours was made in China, it confirms what the other person has said: that the Chinese made screens are better, because it could be a different supplier, maybe Sony. I just hope that if I go back to Walmart to exchange mines, they have some from China.
[HTC Sensation] jrwingate6:
Just exchanged my Sensation because as I said in another thread. The battery was not charging. When I traded it in they gave me a Taiwan version and I do not notice a difference in the display besides having a dead pixel so I exchanged that one as well. The one I exchanged that one for was lag heaven so I exchanged that one. I just got my 3rd one today and they were all made in Taiwan.

I can tell you guys this. While the screen might not be different besides defects. The sped of the device differs. I have had 4 of them and all 4 have ran different. This 4th one is the fastest one I have gotten so it's a keeper.

Anyone else find this strange?
[HTC Sensation] Scoop24:
Its all the defected ones that makes me scared to exchange. They one I have is perfectly fine. I just wanted to make sure I had the best possible screen. Thanks for screen confirmation.
[HTC Sensation] alex6137:
I'm tempted to call my local tmobile stores to see if they have any from China.
[HTC Sensation] _kansei_:
Save it for HTC support. If they say it's defective, have it replaced through them.

I called my local t-mobile store because my device has legitimate problems (like wrecking SD cards, the touchscreen only working when it feels like, and a general inability to associate to any WiFi network) and they said they're out of stock because a lot of people have exchange theirs and they have to send them back to the manufacturer.
[HTC Sensation] brian85:
How do you know if it's made in taiwan or china/
[HTC Sensation] ninor:
How do you check where and when your screen was made?
[HTC Sensation] Tweezydak1d:
if u look on the back of ur box on the white sticker it tells u where the phone was made
[HTC Sensation] TJBunch1228:
The box my phone came in says Made in Taiwan. Does that mean my whole phone, screen included, was made there? My screen is gorgeous, no complaints here. I had the bad mt4g screen and the viewing angles blew. For people who say their screen is made in China, how do you know? Does your box say China? Or Taiwan like mine?
[HTC Sensation] alex6137:
You can also check behind the battery.
[HTC Sensation] NICEGYPT:
Mine made in Taiwan and I have no issue at all. The screen is very nice and the colors if very bright and clear. WE need a compare between Taiwan and China like Mt4g
[HTC Sensation] Doom4420:
I can verify one thing. I got my first from walmart. Ship date was 5/25. Washed out screen and response was stuttering. I took it back, got one from tmobile today and made sure that they got the most current date from stock, which was 6/2. Better screen and the response is smooth and nearly flawless. Both from taiwan. Seems that the earlier builds might have had issues.....
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moandal:
I've done a lot of searching, but can't find the answer to this seemingly simple question. I want to know where Winamp for Android stores its playlists on my GS2 so I can back them up. Any help would be very much appreciated.

Thanks.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moandal:
Does anyone know the answer to this?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellcatDroid:
If it doesn't store them somewhere on the sdcard it's likely in the app's data folder on the internal user partition (that 2G internal thing).

I think the path for WinAmp's data is:

/data/data/com.nullsoft.winamp/

(the double "/data" is not a typo ;))

You need root and a filemanager that allows you to browse the system area above /sdcard to access that path (the builtin stock filemanager does not).

I use GhostCommander for these things.

You can also use backup apps (like Titanium Backup) to backup that data.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moandal:
Yes it's definitely in the internal user data somewhere, but I've got nothing in the /data directory. I think I'll have to create the playlist on the PC and then I can transfer it to the /Playlists folder on the external card (where my music is). Winamp can then see that playlist.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ReeX:
1) What syntax has to be in the playlist so that the mediascanner will accept it?

2) What folder should be used to place the playlists into? \Playlists ??
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheMegastar:
I have a few points to discuss here:

1. The phone is not connecting with Kies on my laptop via Bluetooth. It is connecting only via USB Cable. Why so?

2. The phone is not pairing with my Dell BH200 Bluetooth headset. It just doesn't find it when Bluetooth is turned on.....why so?

3. The Phone ringer is erratic when you use custom ringtones (mp3 files which you copied to the phone from the laptop). When I get a call, sometimes the phone rings and sometimes it doesn't. I'm sure that there is no problem with the hardware of the phone, but this is a software issue. Maybe the phone sometimes fails to load the mp3 files from the media folder (where I copied my mp3 songs) OR maybe some app installed on the phone is interfering with the ringer......any ideas? I am getting this notification a number of times : "FAIL TO ADD MEDIA TRANSPORT" and "FAIL TO CREATE TRANSPORT". Usually when someone calls me for the first time, the phone ringer does not ring (is muted)....then only on second try it rings.

4. Is there any firewall app which can block internet connections of apps which I don't wan't to get connected to the internet without my permission? The apps that I know of require Rooting. Is there an app for unrooted phones?

5. If we Root our phone, will we get future Updates from Samsung (via the phone internet and via Kies) or will they block future updates to our phone? And will the warranty become void if we root our phone???

6. I tried to root today, but when I connect the phone (in download mode) to the laptop via USB, Odin fails to show the connection (the box meant to turn yellow on connecting, does not do so). Any ideas why?

7. Can somebody who successfully rooted their phone with KE8 kernel, post a STEP BY STEP ROOTING GUIDE specially for all the INDIAN OWNERS OF SGS II???

Will appreciate if I get point wise answers to all my questions. Thanks in advance.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheMegastar:
@JJEgan: Ok, thanks for letting me know that the warranty will become void after rooting as per the official notification from Samsung. That's a downer indeed! Does it also mean that Samsung will not Update any phone software/firmware after rooting? I think under normal circumstances, Samsung updates the phone automatically via the phone internet or via Kies, whenever an update is available....am I right?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheMegastar:
@JJEgan: Ok, so it's safe to presume that I won't get updates from Kies after flashing a custom rom? But my purpose is only to get root access so that I can run apps like Droidwall and Titanium Backup. I want to be as close to my original stock rom as possible. Also, I believe, if I want to get rid of that yellow triangle on boot, I will have to re-flash the original rom thru Odin? So my question is will I get updates from Kies (say for example, updates for Gingerbread future versions) after I re-flash the Original Kernel? Pls advise.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
If you flash the original full firmware that came with the phone then yes Kies updates that when their is an update for it but that can be many weeks after stock firmware released .

GT-I9100_XWKE8_insecure.tar (insecure kernel) and

KERNEL_I9100XWKE8_CL214845_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5 (Original file)

Do I have to flash the Insecure file when I use Odin & Super One Click for the first time to root? And then to remove the yellow triangle, I have repeat the same procedure to flash the Original file? But I am confused about the second (original) file which I've download coz it has the extension .md5 ...... is that the correct file type?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stoney73:
why not follow the instructions on the thread that you downloaded the files from?

the extension md5 means that the file will just perform an integrity check to make sure it is a 'good' download, i.e. nothing missing,etc. just use it as normal.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheMegastar:
Thanks for your reply, Stoney73........ am going to do just that, that is follow the steps given in the thread from where I downloaded those two files from. Just got doubtful because of the different file extensions of the INSECURE (.TAR) file and the ORIGINAL (.MD5) file. Asked the same question in another forum (androidforums) and someone replied that the .md5 file is not a correct file and something bad will happen if I flash it with Odin. That's why wanted to make sure before I root my phone. So you are saying that Odin will flash both the files (.tar and .md5) in the same way and I should go ahead with rooting my phone?

@JJEgan: Ok, so I rooted my phone following the instructions given here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1126522 using Chainfire's method.
