Is there any way of testing this on my TB with gingeritis?

Try installing. If it doesn't install then the answer is NO.

HAHA One of the few using superuser 3.0 beta :)
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] allchannels99:
Is there any advantage?
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] superchilpil:
The only advantage is if you buy super user elite in the market, it opens up some options
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] HHx9205910:
Free Superuser Elite

Download Superuser Elite .apk from this link free no registration required wait 20 seconds and click download then move to phone via USB cabel and install. After it is installed go to the original post above and download the 3.0 Beta from that site and do the same I just did to day and the difference is very satisfying.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] onestoploser:
You are aware that 3 is out of beta right? It's up to 3.0.6 now. And why are you pirating a donation app?

[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] vinnyjr:
Currently using superuser 2.3.6.3, which came with the KillaSense 3.5 Rom I am using and absolutely love this Rom. Everything just works like it should. I keep getting update for the superuser app to 3.0.7 I believe. I remember a while back people were having issues with the update for superuser, just wondering if this new update is OK to download. The super user app I am running is from the rom I flashed and because of that I thought I saw somewhere this superuser update might be a problem with my Rom.

Thanks for any help.

[EVO 4G General] arozer:
I'm due for an upgrade from an Evo.

I have 2 choices, Nexus S 4G or Evo 3D.

I've had the Evo since the first day it came out and loved it since. So I'm kinda hesitant on wanting to give it up.. so I'm thinking Evo 3D might be a nice upgrade but I keep hearing Nexus is a better phone.

Which one would you choose, and why?
[EVO 4G General] fr0st420:
I'm a sense type of Guy so I would stick with HTC. I think the 3d is faster than the nexus too.
[EVO 4G General] dirkyd3rk:
Going from an evo to a nexus really isn't an upgrade.......get the 3D (dual core).
[EVO 4G General] dsf3g:
Nexus is and lighter, and supposedly guaranteed to be up to date with OS releases, if that's important to you. Everything else I've read says that even the old Evo 4G is better.
[EVO 4G General] dirkyd3rk:
As long as you root I wouldn't worry about the OS. My girl used her upgrade on a nexus s and its no way better than my evo IMO. Plus it has radio/signal issues based on what everyone has been complaining about. Why go backwards?

Nexus S

*no SD card slot (fail)

*no HDMI

*radio issues

*Samsung lol

*many more
[EVO 4G General] ckoadiyn:
I say go in the store play with both then decide what you want
[EVO 4G General] ckoadiyn:
Also if you don't like either just wait there are other phones coming out as well ask people here if gonna get a bunch of crazy stuff go with ur gut n what u like man that's all
[EVO 4G General] aimbdd:
Lol oh really? Like what? Everything I've read from actual users says otherwise
[EVO 4G General] phatmanxxl:
The only thing the NS has over the EVO really is battery life. EVO 3d is the latest and greatest, NS is 2009/2010 tech under the hood, already outdated IMO.
[EVO 4G General] Cares:
It had a nicer body? :p I do wish the evo wasn't so square and more like the my touch or the upcoming sensation in body type.
[EVO 4G General] Neitmrh15:
I went with the Evo 4G over the Nexus S...No HDMI on the Nexus was a killer and I really like this kick stand :D
[EVO 4G General] dsf3g:
Well, the user experience is what counts, of course. But wit the Nexus S you're giving up the HDMI out, you're giving up the kickstand, you're giving up 1/2" of screen realestate, you're giving up an SD card slot (and potentially 16 GB of additional storage) and I've heard the Nexus S isn't any faster.

I do like the form factor (size, shape and weight) though, to be honest and would probably have gone with the Nexus S instead of my Evo had it been available at Sprint when I signed my contract (I asked about it at the time but they coulnd't give me a firm release date).
[EVO 4G General] Rem3Dy:
The EVO 4g is not better than the nexus s. The only advantage it has is the screen size. Granted the only large gain you get with the nexus s is the GPU.
[EVO 4G General] dirkyd3rk:
GPU being slightly better doesn't mean its a better phone overall. I play with both phones on the daily and its not a night and day difference......its still old technology either way.
[EVO 4G General] arozer:
Well thanks everyone.

I have decided to go with the Evo 3D.

The two big breakers for me were:

Nexus S is made by Samsung.... mehh..

and that it's... made by Samsung.

I've played with it a little.. it feels VERY cheap.

I'm going to upgrade to the new Evo.

Thank you all.
[EVO 4G General] Award Tour:
Slightly better? Its 4-5x as powerful and on par with today's dual cores. The Nexus S has okay hardware, slight but needed upgrade over the EVO because of the GPU. CPU wise it'll perform about the same as dual cores until Android and its apps gets proper support; by then there will be GPU acceleration and since the NS' GPU is reallly good, you won't notice a visual difference anyway.

That said, newer phones will be better on paper but the Nexus S is all about software. You can bet on the Nexus S having Ice Cream months before the 3D or SGS. I personally like my NS (was going to get the Sprint N1 over the EVO 4G before it was cancelled but have a ATT N1) and will jump immediately to the next Nexus. Will never own another non Nexus Android phone.
[EVO 4G General] NewZJ:
oooooo, newest software, ooooooo. /thread.

bwahahaha, gb isn't a big increase over froyo just as it wasnt a big increase over donut/eclair with the exception of the jit.

yes new software is nice but on vanilla you see no difference
[EVO 4G General] Award Tour:
You expect that to be true with ICS? Anyway, get ready to watch the Nexus S and Nexus 3 running a stable build of ICS for 6 months before any non Nexus phone. If you thought CM 7 was buggy, get ready to see what GPU acceleration does to porting.
[EVO 4G General] daryelv:
Ice Cream will be a fairly big leap. Imagine going from Cupcake to Froyo...
[EVO 4G General] aph:
Where did I hear Nexus S2/S+ in July?
[EVO 4G General] Award Tour:
From an unrelieble source. Next Nexus won't come till at the earliest the fall but mostly likely the winter.
[EVO 4G General] Xerexis:
I personally like the Sense interface, while Samsung has the better screen and the pure google experience it does not have the external SD card to use. I'm HTC all the way after owning an Epic and seeing the quality of support and the errors of the updates. I do agree the software was nice including the screen but chose to stick with HTC. That is just my personal opinion.
[EVO 4G General] akilestar:
Samsung is also notorious about making really cheap charging ports. They place them were they can be easily replaced which also mean they can easily be broken off the board. Ive had my Evo since day 1 (google I/O not june 4th) and Ive never had a charge port issue. As a tech I bet I replaced 30 to 50 Moments and Epics a month. I would never buy a Samsung phone.
[EVO 4G General] stkiswr:
+1, EVO 3d all the way! we own an EVO and an epic 4G. the epic has its UPS...but way too many downs...we will never own another Samsung phone again unless they correct the way they do things. It's really lame to lay so much for a phone that's dated the day you purchase it. I like nexus...the HTC nexus 1. Heard rumors people weren't buying the nexus s like they were hoping...mainly because of Samsung. Google is getting interested in making the next nexus again with HTC because it was an instant hit. Still a nice phone. The nexus S is nice but outdated the day it came out, much like so many other Samsung phones. The galaxy s2 from what I understand is very nice, but I still am not interested...due to Samsung. Sorry to display so much hate, it just took almost a year of ownership to get decent software, and its not even official! A leak ef02!
[EVO 4G General] edgarmoreno1:
Just ordered mine I'll get it tomorrow. Can't wait.
[EVO 4G General] swaze:
Figures you would show up to go to bat for the nexus. Why aren't you in the nexus forum....seems to me you love it so much you should have moderator rights. 3d all day!!!
[EVO 4G General] Award Tour:
I am in the Nexus forum.
[EVO 4G General] splmonster:
Considering the topic title.. All of this is pretty relevant to this topic. :rolleyes:

Seeing some posts saying HTC EVO 4G as good as Nexus S 4G? In what area? Besides the crappy 720p video recording. The GPU alone in the Nexus S tests anywhere from 48-55fps on Nenamark, while the EVO 4G can't even break 15fps. Neocore? 30-32fps on EVO, just about 60fps on Nexus S. So GPU alone makes that a better device. Being a vanilla ROM also does better, and is easier on the resources. No Sprint bloat... Also having complete support for OS updates almost right away is another notch to the Nexus S. Still if specs are something your going for, of course the EVO 3D is more powerful. 3D in reviews have proved to show it's a gimmick, and everyone is getting a headache from the EVO 3D, yet not with the Optimus 3D and that it showed content much better. If i'm anyone.. Nexus S 4G is plenty capable of what Android has to offer for the next while. Or wait for the Galaxy S2, which has been reviewed as the better device between that and the EVO 3D. Sources say end of July we could see that device on Sprint.
[EVO 4G General] arozer:
Thank you for a very detailed explanation.

I would wait til the end of July, except I only have 2 more weeks to decide on which phone I want.

Reason being is 2 weeks ago, I slammed and broke my Evo. I went to the store and used my upgrade to get a free crappy phone because they didn't have the Nexus in at the time. Now I can switch to a different phone within 2 weeks.. by paying $200. Just need to hurry up and decide which to use.

I'm actually rooting more for the Evo 3D now though. ONLY for the simple fact being Nexus is made by Samsung and feels SO cheap. (I've actually been using a borrowed NS4G for a week now.)
[EVO 4G General] dpilcher:
I'll just wait for Sorbet instead of Ice Cream and until the late Q3 early Q4 for the jump...but then again my octiquad core proc runing andrapple with a side of intelvidia will have to wait a while.

[HTC Sensation] Niekjuh:
Hi Guys,

Before the HTC sensation I had a HTC HD2 with this original case/pouch: http://www.netimes.com/shop/htc-pouch-case-po-s510-for-htc-incredible-s-hd7-hd2-p-2442.html

It's a little too wide for the sensation, and the sensation is a little longer...

Does anyone knows if there is a case/pouch on the market for the sensation that is (almost) the same as the one I mentioned above.

Thnx,

Niek
[HTC Sensation] enragedpaza:
If you're in the UK, carphonewarehouse has a case for the nexus s that will work.

Google tech 21 d30. I think this is so nice, I just can't find anyone to ship to US for me :(
[HTC Sensation] Niekjuh:
You mean this one? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gMy3GPAp2UQ

Sorry but I don't like that one...

Most cases/pouches are big, hard etc... I like the HD2 pouch because it's so small and takes the shape of the phone.
[HTC Sensation] enragedpaza:
No the one I am talking about is a pouch. Look it up on there site. I am on my phone, so it never shows the products for me for some reason

The dimensions for the nexus s and sensation are the same too
[HTC Sensation] hypergerrits:
I ordered my HTC Sensation yesterday, and expecting it tomorrow evening, i bought an pouch from ebay.

this is my first post @ xda, so i am not allowed to post links in my reply's.

so i wil give you the keyword to search on eBay.

search on eBay for: "HTC Sensation 4G ,Leather Case Pouch + LCD Film c", the top one is the one i ordered. i hope it wil fit, but it looks okay, it's cheap and free shipping ;)
[HTC Sensation] xnifex:
I wish the US HD2 would have gotten that pouch too
[HTC Sensation] Electronic Punk:
using the hd2 case for my sensation atm, until both the sensation one is released and I can get my hands on one.
[HTC Sensation] _kansei_:
Looks like this is an official HTC slip pouch for the Sensation http://www.expansys-usa.com/htc-sensation-meteor-slip-pouch-po-s570-218025/
[HTC Sensation] Niekjuh:
That's exactly the one used for the HD2...

Unused it's tighter then the one I used for the HD2, so the sensation will fit... but still the sensation is too long for it...
[HTC Sensation] xnifex:
link for those who want to see
[HTC Sensation] galaxys:
thanks for the link....that's a pretty cool pouch!
[HTC Sensation] toto99303:
I ordered this one:

Looks like the good old HD2 pouch
[HTC Sensation] sjgore:
I bought a new HD2 pouch off eBay for £5.99 with free P&P and it fits my Sensation very well. A little loose, perhaps, the phone will shoot out of the pouch if I don't grip it tightly enough, but it will do until play.com send my pre-ordered official Sensation meteor pouch.
[HTC Sensation] Niekjuh:
Ok I made a mistake in this post, it's not that one!

But I still don't like it, it's to ''hard''..

Think I'm going to use the old one for the HD2 for a while and wait for a good pouch... or use the phone without any form of case/pouch
[HTC Sensation] Cymruan:
i do understand people like offical stuff and the quality you get from some of these pouches, but couldn't you just make one for cheaper? all it is is a peice of leather folded over and sewn then cut to size lol.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Dorkington:
I've done some searching for some of the below with varying degrees of success, so unfortunately I have to ask, and I hope I'm not universally hated for it. :)

A little background: I've been an iOS user for 3 years and have an iMac with bootcamp (and Parallels access) as my main computer. I've jailbroken all of my iOS devices. I've done tech support in the past (now photographer/graphic design), but at the same time I'm not an expert by any stretch. Sooooo consider my technical abilities to be "moderate" with proper instruction. :)

On to the questions!

- Apparently stock Honeycomb cannot see Ad-Hoc networks, but a rooted one possibly can? Do I just need to root and it'll work? Or do I need to root and install something? I think I found answers on this...

- Xbox 360 controller does not work via USB, but there are other controllers that do work. Will a generic USB controller work, or is only the PS3 controller supported?

- By default it seems there is no spell checking going on when typing with the hardware keyboard, is there any way to fix this?

Thanks for any and all help (and even thanks for hilarious but snarky commentary about my ignorance :D), and hopefully you don't mind some follow up questions that I struggle to find answers to.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] magicpork:
I have two generic usb gamepads (both X360 style), one of them works very well and the other is a bit clunky...button 6-10 are not recognized but LS and RS are working fine... :s

You can try thumb keyboard...or Swype...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Dorkington:
Thanks for the suggestions. Do you happen to know the brand of the well working controller?

I'll try out a couple different keyboards tonight. :)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Dorkington:
Is there no spell check in active forms? (ie squiggly red line)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] dorino1:
Not usually. Some applications, like Polaris Office, if I recall, do have active spellcheck.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Dorkington:
That's a shame... is that something that could possibly be implemented by a developer and a rooted TF? Or is it something that we'd just have to wait on from Google?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] wilbur-force:
erm.... the physical keyboard has auto correction facilities if thats what you mean ?

..... and a standard PS3 controller works fine (wired) as does a standard Wii controller (unwired) :)
[Thunderbolt General] psufan5:
First off I dont have to worry about it because I already have the TBolt.. However, if friends or family ever switch over, it could be an issue for them...

That being said - if they are going to have this implemented, they need to make some changes to the android OS.

First off - when you buy a new phone, the employee types in your gmail address and syncs your phone. This is done over 3/4G since they rarely bother to put you on wifi for doing this. Not to mention you probably want to leave the store... Therefore you will be syncing all your apps on your wireless account consuming your bandwidth.

There are too many instances that the OS contacts the net for this to be viable and pointless if you turn them off. My iPhone on at&t never went over 900mb a month and I use it the same amount as this android phone. The difference? The iPhone doesnt sync over the web and pull all of your apps back down for you if you factory reset or load a custom rom. On the TBolt, I regularly hit over 10gb per month.

I believe Verizon must limit bandwidth after you reach your paid allowance, not charge overages. The FCC really needs to step in here as this is literally the internet form of rape.

I guess Sprint is smiling now?
[Thunderbolt General] JBAeroEngineer:
most people aren't loading custom roms (not to mention it's not Verizon's problem, technically they don't condone it), or downloading them over 3G/4G, but rather via the computer and transferring over USB. How you hit 10 GB without netflix is beyond me. If you're using LTE as a home internet sub than that's a whole different topic.

Streaming music for ~2hours a day except on the weekend, and moderate use each day, only puts me at max around 4GB.
[Thunderbolt General] abn75:
Well several things. No one has to let the vzw employees set up their phones. No one is required to sync their apps or even download any. And why should vzw, if /once they go to tiered plans simply throttle instead of charge overage. Go over you cell minutes you pay extra. Same for txt. And how is it any concern of the FCC if vzw changes their plans?

My main issue with the plans as rumored is that they do not include tethering. Most normal users will be fine with a 2g cap. My gf, on a rooted DX with Netflix, has used 700 megs this month. Just for example.

das BAMF sense 3.0 rocking the bolt
[Thunderbolt General] inzandity:
Really? I haven't been able to stay under 10 gigs since Amazon Cloud / Google Music came out. And that is about 2-3 hours a day. Although I do use TuneIn Radio the other 90% of the time...
[Thunderbolt General] turbosrrgood:
Yeah, lucky for most of us TB users, we are grandfathered in to the "unlimited" plans. I have been a VZ customer for over 15 years now, and there is no question that their services is the best....

But when the time comes for me to sign another contract, if these are the terms I will probably be forced to switch carriers...

Sprint looks appealing, they have strong data coverage in my area...and I am not concerned about "dropped calls" because I almost never use the phone any more...

Hopefully this kind of pricing will force more competition. Maybe if they offered unlimited texting and cheaper (lower than 450 minute) phone plans along with it, that would soften the blow.

I am also finding that 4G speeds really only matter to me when tethering, other than that 3G does everything I need just fine with better battery life. I could definitely do with "slower" 4G speeds with another carrier.
[Thunderbolt General] bogatyr:
FTP transfer for work on the fly while traveling around town. My phone is on the car charger or my desk charger most of the day. And I have an Unlimited Verizon 3G mobile modem for my laptop, so no it isn't tethering.
[Thunderbolt General] velopirate:
Why switch carriers? Since they did away with the 1-year commitment earlier this year, I made the decision just to buy my phones without a subsidy. Therefore, no need for a new contract. I got my TBolt on eBay for a pretty decent price and it's like new.
[Thunderbolt General] JBAeroEngineer:
way to use a completely off base scenario :confused:
[Thunderbolt General] bogatyr:
Well you did say:

Was just giving you an example that doesn't involve tethering :P I use 50-70GB/mo on my phone. A lot less on my grandfathered laptop modem - mostly VPN/Remote desktop/Console work.
[Thunderbolt General] SCDroid:
10GB a month? wtf?

I just averaged up my last 6 months and i average .21 GB a month. and i stream pandora, have all my accounts syncing and look on the net, facebook and twitter all day. When i get my tablet (hopefully the amazon hollywood) this will go down evenmore bc i'll be using it at home on my wifi.
[Thunderbolt General] BeastieBoyy:
I use mine heavily with netflix....and i was around 4 gigs this month
[Thunderbolt General] Beastclaw:
I also call shenanigans on 10gigs a month just by synching. I use about 6gigs a month but I use my LTE for a lot of things.
