Playing songs is working just fine. It's the scrolling that is lagging.like crazy.

Have around 7000 songs in the cloud, but as i said cant see how it should be a problem when SGS II can do it just fine.
[HTC Sensation] Sdobron:
Run a speed test on the internal sd card. Might be a faster class.
[HTC Sensation] domazdk:
Any app to do that on the market?

Found it.

https://market.android.com/details?id=ales.veluscek.sdtools&feature=search_result
[HTC Sensation] Xintros:
I get ZERO lag when scrolling through my collection of about 7000 songs on my phone. I would suggest clearing data from the app, reinstalling, then maybe factory reset.

Edit: to be clear I am talking about the Google music beta as well.
[HTC Sensation] domazdk:
Maybe the reason?
[HTC Sensation] SoFaKiNgStOkeD:
Okay now you guys have me wondering what Google Cloud is and where to find it? Is it on the Sensation already? Is it on the Market? I need this!
[HTC Sensation] Virtue94:
Google "Cloud" is actually known as Google Music Beta which is a service in which you can store all your (not lossless) songs. You currently need an invitation to get into the beta however. music.google.com

EDIT- The app is also on the Android Market but again, your Google Account must have Google Music to use all the cloud syncing features.
[HTC Sensation] rawr4dj:
You sir, are you serious? Touchwiz was/is very to rid off
[HTC Sensation] ajftl:
so u removed all the widgets? so whats the point.... hate this .. a brand new phone its 2011 its a powerful phone and here we go removing widgets so the powerful phone runs fast..., how pathetic.. but yes u right.. my bro just got the evo 3d he have no fb no twitter he doesn't have any other sync than only gmail and hes phone always 300+ free memory.. my sensation its on the 100-120 free memory.. so yes hes evo runs smoother than my sensation.. he have calendar widgets, movie widget, and some others..
[HTC Sensation] SoFaKiNgStOkeD:
Regarding your free memory, if you are looking at Task Manager and seeing 100-120 free memory, then please know that those stats are completely inaccurate in Task Manager. I was horrified when I saw that too. To get the real free memory stats look under settings>applications>running services, then look at the bottom of your screen. That my friend is what you really have in available memory. Mine shows 301 MB free, and I have tons of apps and Widgets running. I think that will make you feel better bro. Tell your brother his Evo 3D's got nothing on your Sensations. 3D is soooo 1970's!! Lol!
[HTC Sensation] domazdk:
The EVO 3D IS more smooth then the Sensation.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=cMioPBv4PbI

And most think its coz of the extra ram.
[HTC Sensation] SoFaKiNgStOkeD:
Good to know, but I think you said you have a Sensation right? With all due respect, why are you dwelling on a phone you don't own? This is a Sensation thread. Represent! The Evo 3D may have more RAM, but where it does fail is that it's on the worst 4G network known to man. Sprint's spotty wannabe 4G network is terrible. My Sensation gets 4G all day long and it's 100 times faster even when the Evo does happen to get 4G. I had the Evo for a week, and came back to T-Mobile after a full refund once I heard about the Sensation. Glad I waited, glad I'm back.
[HTC Sensation] domazdk:
Well couldnt find a class 10 SD card today, so i bought a nice 16gb class 4.

And SD tools shows it can read with alot higher speed. Around 10-12mb/s.

It made the system abit faster and more smooth, and the google music app is also a little faster. But still not close to the smoothness of SGS II.

Ill guess its a crappy SD card that comes along with the sensation.

Well, the minor speed increase have done that im keeping the sensation for now :)
[HTC Sensation] domazdk:
Well we are not fanboys here on the page (or at least im not), so we dont hide away the bad things about the phone and hope noone sees it.

Thats why i highlighted it.
[HTC Sensation] SoFaKiNgStOkeD:
Told ya!
[HTC Sensation] alodar1:
Huh?

I removed them because I didn't like them... Not for speed purposes. I have twitter and fscebook and the music player application loaSded on screen. The people widget is still there to. I have lots of things loaded and on the desktops... But they are things I like.

So i'm pathetic because I customized to my liking? I missed that in terms and conditions for xda.
[HTC Sensation] SoFaKiNgStOkeD:
Fanboy????? Really????? Because I don't care about what another phone on an entirely different network does, that makes me a fanboy??? I was just trying to let you know you had more RAM available than what you thought. Excuse me for trying to help you out. That's what XDA is all about guy. Whatever, you probably still don't get it. Enjoy.
[HTC Sensation] SoFaKiNgStOkeD:
@alodar, ignore that guy, anything you say, he's just going to come back with a negative comment. He has buyers remorse and wishes he was with Sprint.
[HTC Sensation] dellybelly:
It is a beta afterall; I get some sluggish response when scrolling; likely unoptimized code/cacheing. This happens on both my Xoom, N1 and my Sensation. My N1 has a Class 10 sd card (actually performs at around 8 though) and it's not smooth during scrolling long lists.

Playing songs however seems to be flawless; i have about 3k songs on the cloud and 16 playlists.

If you want to use comparisons on speed I wouldn't use music beta as your bench.
[HTC Sensation] domazdk:
You still dont get that i dont care about sprint. Only the phone. You know we are some that are so lucky that we dont live in USA and have alot of operators to chose between.

You said something wrong and i corrected you. Else then that i dont give ****. My faster sd card måde it a little bit better, but in Google Music the Sensation stil performs very bad vompared to SGS II, ill just Hope Google fix it.
[HTC Sensation] jrwingate6:
Google Music app is the same speed it was on my G2X. It's still not as fast as I would like but it is in Beta. By the way, to the wack job who said something about removing widgets. I don't use any HTC widgets because I don't like them. I use other widgets and my Sensation has about 300mb of free memory. If you don't believe me ill take a picture for you.
[HTC Sensation] DarkManX4lf:
I have the same problem on the HTC EVO 3d. I can smooth scroll in other apps like subsonic s....but not in Google music....I only have a class 2 16gb micro SD card but I don't think that's the problem.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] MoreYummy:
market force close when booting up and loading it, and opening some apps.

When some apps force close, the market android's force close buttons come up after that.

Not all apps will bring up the force close button.
[HTC EVO 3D] BlueGoldAce:
Does the notification light work on this thing? Am I missing a setting and it is turned off? I can't seem to get a light to blink when I receive text or emails.

Edit: I figured it out, it is where the option always was. I apologize for the pointless post, I don't know how I missed that....
[Verizon Droid Charge] ChadZ:
If I move all apps to sd card, and do a factory reset or rom upgrade, do I have to reinstall the apps already on the card or does android pick them up automatically, even after a rom upgrade or reset?
[Desire General] impactor:
Strangest thing - since I upgraded to newest CyanogenMod a month ago, all my incoming text messages have timestamp one hour behind my telephone time (and timestamp on my sent messages).

What is this?
[Desire General] sakai4eva:
Your phone time is off. The timestamp is based on carrier time. Change your time to a few minutes or so off to get it back right. At least, that's what I did.
[Desire General] impactor:
I am not using carrier's time. I am using software that syncs it with atomic clock every 12 hours. I don't see how this could cause a problem.

And it didn't on previous version of CyanoGenMod.
[Desire General] jayroller:
Are you in the UK? It's not something to do with BST is it? I'm just thinking that if your time zone isn't taking this into account, there'd be a spare hour somewhere... :D
[Desire General] impactor:
Yes, I am in the UK.

The strange thing is, that my own messages have correct time. It's only the incoming ones that are behind.
[Desire General] jayroller:
Hmm, it looks like it's not that uncommon - there's an app in the market called "SMS Time Fix" which addresses your exact problem. Unfortunately, it doesn't say why it happens, but apparently it fixes it. Half a solution I know, but maybe better than none? :D
[Desire General] impactor:
Thanks for the tip. Hope it works.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] perlgoodies:
I have a Sprint HTC hero with original everything.

I've been wanting to do a mod but that brings up a few questions.

1) A lot of places say the CM7 mod from here is great for this phone but I clicked around and can't find a list of things it changes/improves. Why would I install a mod and will most things continue to work (market places, email, phone utilities, purchased apps).

2) All roms have those warnings that they void warranty. How often do they brick the device? Is this something I should worry about?

Sorry for the noobish questions but I am looking towards modding the hero but I want to make sure I don't make it worse.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Turkz:
1.) well basically MOD's are roms that people cook themselves from the scratch android or from a base like for example the DesireHD android base. They can do things varying from the look and feel of android to adding elements like being able to browse Privately on your browsers. i know that CM7 allows you to do that. Being able to flash different roms opens up a even bigger Android World.

2.) I have been flashing back and forth for a long time and not once have i bricked the device. Besides not like a little system restore wont fix anything. Also if you happen to send you device into maintenance or repair just restore you phone back to factory settings. All of it is reversible. When i first started out it helped me to really read NOOB forums so i didn't do something i would regret, but you should have nothing to really worry about.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IQHU:
reply from a still nearly noob, although i read alot about roms already and flashed my sgs2. ill just attemt to help you a little here.

1) i now flashed lite'ning rom on my phone as there is no cm7 for it yet. once realeased i will also flash it as i also read that it is the most widely used rom with best support. within a thread of the specific rom there should be a list of improvements/major changes or what will be added if you flash the rom. these and mostly more battery life and/or more speed are the reasons people flash roms. after flashing the phone you will have all the things still working, sometimes even better. for apps it depends on the rom. mine for example didnt require a wipe that delets all you data on the phone. others (as i think cm7 also) require a wipe of all you on-phone personal data apps and so on (not sd card if im not mistaken, please correct me!)

2)yes, you void warranty if you flash a custom rom, root or do sth else on the firmware not published by the manufacturer. when i flashed and overflashed my phones rom for several time already i haven't had any problems. and as i read all over the net/xda there is just a very little chance to brick your phone and even there you might have possibilities to revive it, i think. but im not sure on this, cosider others informations first!

hope i could help you a little from noob to noob and enjoy flashing roms. oh and of course have a look in the htc hero android development section for roms!

cheers!

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darksoul0013:
This is the first time this phone has acted up. I am running RG 2.1 with the kernel that was packaged with it. I was running Ck's newest kernel. I reflashed the phone that's why I'm running the packaged one. I am also using the newest radio and have been since it was released. The md5 matched. I have the bad emmc also. Could that be the problem? My signal just came back, so I jumped on here to see if anyone had any ideas why it's acting up. By the way RG is slick and fast as hell.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:

Lots of posts with good spare batteries.

Here's one more to consider that I picked up on ebay for $12!!! It shipped free from China & I had it in 8 days. It's gone up now to $19 but to have an extra is always great for plane travel, etc... The set comes with 3 1600mAh batteries & a wall/usb charger. Charger is pretty nice, has a large LED indicator on the bottom that changes color when charged.

[HTC Sensation] Cymruan:
I got the same ones for my HD2. I ended up buying the pack with a charger and 2 batteries twice, I did end up loosing my offical battery one day so I am now running off 4 of these batteries. I haven't had my phone plugged in for ages.

The batteries seem to work just as well as the OEM one. As soon as I get my sensation in the post these will be the first accessory I'll be buying.
[Dell Streak 7] xravexheavenx:
I have searched all over for a few days now and still seem to be having issues with a Streak 7 that was brought to me.

I am now trying to do a recovery through Fastboot and can't seem to find the correct drivers anywhere. Any ideas?

Also, does anyone know why for some reason the update package on the wiki page for the Streak 7 seems to quit on a modem update failure?

Thanks.
[Dell Streak 7] Z4nd4r:
Don't know about the modem issue, but the drivers ought to be stored on the internal memory card.
[Dell Streak 7] xravexheavenx:
I seem to be having trouble getting to anything on the internal. I'm thinking whoever had it previously could have nuked it as my customer bout it from someone else before then. I'v seen it operational but randomly got stuck in the Dell logo (they probably did something they're not telling me). So far I've tried to recover with NVFlash and then attempted a manual update.pkg 2.2.2. when applying the update.pkg is when I get the modem error. This is a T-Mobile branded Streak 7 if that helps. Any suggestions?
[Dell Streak 7] Z4nd4r:
Go through this thread with a fine toothed comb:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1018809

The APX drivers for NVFlash are in there. Further down in the thread there's a compiled, compressed file download, too. Also, I think they have the system files linked in there (that ought to replace your modem firmware). I'd ask questions in that thread because there are some really knowledgeable folks in there, too.
[HTC EVO 3D] brandonpaz:
I did not see the same folder structure I am used to on the evo3d for Ringtones.

I did find a \media\audio\notifications but I was only able to use these for Notifications like text messages. On my Hero I used to have a seperate ring tone for each person that calls on a regular basis. (Kinda nice not to have to look at the phone nad know how is calling).

Thanks in advance,

Brandon
[HTC EVO 3D] zone23:
Just create a ringtone folder as well so:

sdcard\media\audio\ringtones

add ringer, reboot
[HTC EVO 3D] brandonpaz:
Thanks much, I tried this earlier and it failed, I guess I used a capital R?

After the reboot it is working now.

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] euklid:
I searched for this everywhere but didn't find it. I listen to a lot of electronic music and I usually play the tracks on youtube before purchasing them on beatport or whatever. It sucks thay in the youtube app the song stops if I have to answer an sms or surf web. I think it would be a good idea of a mod or even a custom app that can play youtube videos in the backgroud..is this possible?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hbc.ciccone:
theres a sweet app called free music download in the market where you can search for almost any song or artist and get many results. from there you can stream or download the mp3. i use it everyday along with my unlimited skip pandora
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akellar:
Check out Ghosttown from the market. Plays songs from youtube without the video. Idea worked well for me but the buffering killed it for me. May work for you though.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Avelnan:

[Streak 5 General] Dsmwookie:
Not seeing the significance, still locked to ATT unless you wanna settle for crappy Edge.
[Streak 5 General] marvin02:
Other than the $199 sale that happened a couple of months ago the $399 price is the lowest off-contract price foe a new Streak 5 I have seen.

It is true that the phone has AT&T bands, but it is not carrier locked. The biggest benefit of this is no AT&T bloat. With used Streaks on eBay selling for $275 to over $300 $400 for a new device with a one year warranty may appeal to some.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] BlackOtaku:
Hey everyone. :) I'm planning on getting the Tab, and I was wondering if Honeycomb is decently stable and responsible on the Tab, as I understand from some of the posts here that Honeycomb is still a bit beta-y.

Namely:

-Does it play YouTube videos fine?

-Do apps force close often?

-Is there a lot of lag on the device?

Thanks in advance for any answers. :D
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] mrsbelpit:
I've had mine for approx 24 hours (and have barely put it down).

No force closes, no lag to speak of, and every app I've installed has worked. Maybe the benefit of low expectations, or being used to a Vibrant, but Honeycomb is awesome.

The only thing I've run into: I have a very strong wifi connection, and at least 3 or 4 times in Gmail and the market, it says "no connection-retry?"

Every time I retry it connects.

Anyway, that's my perspective after a whole day, for what it's worth.

Youtube is excellent.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] GuestK003:
-Does it play YouTube videos fine?

I've seen a few catches here and there. Nothing to completely turn me away.

-Do apps force close often?

I've only had issues with one app and reinstalled it no probs after that.

-Is there a lot of lag on the device?

I've noticed a small amount of lag. Especially with the stock launcher. I'm not surprised because most of the stock devices that I've played around with have had the same small lag.

I've also noticed that a lot more apps stay running on the tablets. That can't help with the lag.

I'm personally can't wait for the voodoo lagfix to hit kernels.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] galaxytabevo:
It's a great device. Honeycomb is a bit buggy. If you run some apps that aren't optimized for it, it force closes at times.

If you can handle that, it's a great device.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] BlackOtaku:
Cool, everything sounds good. :) Can't wait to get my Tab now!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] leongs:
Got 10.1 retail 16gb with 3.1, unlocked from Frys yesterday. Auto installed all of my applications, total of 100+ from Market & Amazon through HTC Thunderbolt 4G LTE hot spot within minutes. I have Samsung 7" tab since last thanksgiving. Works everything, loves it. A keeper for me.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] cds0699:
I just got my GT 10.1 yesterday and thus far I am very happy. Runs smooth and seems stable in my (limited) experience.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Kevin Gossett:
Supercurio has already said the Tab doesn't need a lag fix, so there may not be voodoo for it (although he already has the sound enhancements going)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] jackie_jagger:
I've used test devices asking with rc touchWiz units - lags are present, but vanilla honeycomb is bloody smooth, it felt as the most fluid honeycomb tab (I've used all major ones out there)

I think this "lag" should be fixed with the 3.2 update which is due on xoom in next few weeks - it has "improved hardware acceleration"
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] mesasone:
I've had a a few issues with apps force closing on me, and a couple of instances of slight lag in the interface as well, but overall I really like this device. Form factor is nice, screen is great and battery life is phenomenal.

I think the few issues with the 10.1 will be fixed in time - either by Samsung/Google or third party developers - so I'm not terribly worried. In the case that they aren't, these issues are slight and do not occur regularly so I can easily live with them - even if I shouldn't have to.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] lqaddict:
The original Voodoo lagfix for Galaxy S phones was used to convert the filesystem on the device to EXT3/4 from lackluster RFS, from what I am reading and experiencing Samsung is using EXT3 filesystem on the Tab, so the lagfix is pointless.

Kernel tweaks and fine tuning of the Honyecomb when the source becomes available should address the lag issues if ever.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] BlackOtaku:
Supercurio won't need to do the lagfix needed for the Galaxy S devices, but he may still have a few filesystem tweaks and whatnot to contribute that will give a small (possibly negligible) boost to performance on the Tab. He did that for the Nexus S, even though the Nexus S used EXT4.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Ravynmagi:
Very same thing happens to me. My Xoom or Transformer never did this, and my Nook Color and Galaxy S Vibrant also never had issues with my wifi connection.

So I thought it might have been a hardware problem, also because I hadn't seen anyone mention it on this board. I returned my Galaxy Tab 10.1 and got a replacement. The replacement is doing it too. So I am now guessing it might be software.

Glad to see at least I'm not the only one having this problem. Haha.
