[HTC EVO 3D] jadoe05:
Forgive me if this topic has already been covered. Simple question though. As root is apparently around the corner, what do you miss that you can't currently do on your 3vo?

For me one of the things is using multi mount sdcard. I use my phone for music in my car and just plugging the usb in is more convenient than having to hit usb storage. Slightly lazy? Yes. But what's technology for? Lol

So what about you guys?
[HTC EVO 3D] rutter9:
I would always flash my evo all the time. I think the one good thing about root is we can work out the bugs on our own instead of waiting for a release. (evo 4g battery life for example).

Other then that just wireless tethering was handy about once or twice a month. This phone is pretty solid to begin with so I'm not too concerned unless something crazy is released.
[HTC EVO 3D] jadoe05:
That's so true. I love this phone lol. I feel that there are only a few things people could need root for so I'm tying to find new uses that I've never used
[HTC EVO 3D] 2k4mach:
i agree, as much as i enjoy having root and flashing roms, im actually quite happy with the phone as is for right now.
[HTC EVO 3D] dcfella:
The biggest thing I miss is Titanium backup. I liked being able to backup and restore app data. The ad-free app was nice too. I like Sense 3.0 and it's so fast and smooth that it makes me not miss rom flashing...yet.
[HTC EVO 3D] blues2009:
The only thing I miss is that you can use the volume rocker to skip music tracks while the screen is off. That's it!
[HTC EVO 3D] Brandon_m25:
That's deff one big thing I miss for when I'm at work.

[HTC EVO 3D] charlie hustle:
titanium by far.

Rom manager will be another miss when i start flashing roms, but for now i need to restore my apps from my og evo.
[HTC EVO 3D] srb7215:
No more bloat. Really the biggest reason I root is to get rid of all the stuff i don't want on my phone. That and usually better battery life because of the more efficient kernals.
[HTC EVO 3D] dmcduck:
Remove bloat (although not as big now that you can uninstall several apps) and wireless tether.
[HTC EVO 3D] arozer:
AOSP and that's it. Lol.

I want CM7 on this phone so bad!

Only Rom I ever really used on regular Evo.
[HTC EVO 3D] os10:
Same here. Really missing wireless tether. Back to using PDAnet for now but it's a hassle to move between two laptops.

Also annoying that I can't remove useless apps like Amazon MP3.

Everything else I can live with.
[HTC EVO 3D] Taubin:
First and formost for me is Wireless Tether

After that, titanium backup, and getting rid of a bit of bloatware. I'm digging sense, but, would like CM also.
[HTC EVO 3D] nate420:

Yea this is probably the biggest thing on most people's list. I won't be complaining about it though unless it gets to the point where I'm running out of room and we still don't have root yet lol

Hi all, I'm stuck again with my hd2, I have been using Android and totally love it, however my brother who also has same phone asked me to change his from win6.5 to android. I retied but it wouldn't even install magloader, I remember I had the same trouble when I first tried it on mine.

I spent a while repeating the steps I'd taken on mine and now I'm stuck with win6.5, I HATE IT and want android back.

My problem is, no matter what I do, I can't get the magldr screen to show up when I boot with the power off key pressed.

Please can someone help me, I've looked but can't find any help

Hi,

I have seen this post: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1152233

It's a very interesting.

Basicaly i have a HTC Desire HD on Orange. Orange put like 10 - 15 stupid apps on there that cant be deleted. If i followed the down grading guide could i then un-install the orange apps pre-loaded on the stock rom and then re-upgrade to 2.3.3?

I'm quite nervous to risk my phone when i am not 100% sure of what i am doing....

If there is another way to uninstall locked apps on 2.37 without downgrading that would be great.

Any advice is appreciated.

Kind Regards

I rooted DHD any shiprom. You don't need to downgrade 1.32 . I will post GUIDE later...
[Desire HD General] mikelara130:
You don't need to downgrade. What I would do (not sure if it's the easiest way but probably is) is root, then install Titanium Backup. You can uninstall and freeze (similar to uninstall) system apps with TB.

EDIT: Actually, you might have to downgrade if you want to root, since you're on 2.37. Not sure, though, haven't used official ROM's for a while.

Hi everyone,

Which would be the best (most stable for daily use) ROM+Kernel combination?

From what I've read, I'm favoring Virtuous Picasso+UnityV3. If I apply it from a fresh install (factory wipe, dalvik, cache), will the issues (wifi dhcp, gps) appear?

Thanks and great work to the devs!
[Acer Iconia A500] daswahnsinn:
I use Virtuous Picasso with Thor's kernel, but good luck finding it. It's very stable and I have not had a single reboot yet. I have not tried too many kernels yet either. Reason, why switch if it works great.
[Acer Iconia A500] OrionBG:
For me, it is the Virtuous Picasso 1.0.8 ASUS Rom + thor's 1.1 beta2 kernel. Smooth, fast, worry free...

One big plus is that the ExternalSD is accessible when connected to PC!

[Epic 4G General] traumajeff:
I've searched numerous forums/posts/threads for help, and I now come tail between legs, waiving the white flag! I give up! I need help!

I've noticed my download speeds have slowed dramatically over the past few weeks. What once was (4g) 4-5 down & 1-1.5 up, is now 1-1.5 down & 1 up. Real world experience has drawn me to these figures, but I've also confirmed similar speeds with speedtest. (Yes, I know speedtest isn't 100% accurate) I've tested speeds over several days, using the same tower. Each time, I was approximately 200 yards away, outside with a direct view of the tower, with full signal strength. Testing was done between 1 & 3 am. I used speedtest and downloaded the same pdf from my email to compile my unofficial info. Out of curiosity, I did the same tests on 3g and found almost identical results (slightly slower up speeds).

In my pursuit to find an answer, I've tried many things. I updated my PRL (01120). I found a post that showed how to increase 4g signal strength (-110) and increase refresh rate. I've called Sprint and had them check the tower (nothing was wrong per the CS rep). I've rebooted. I've toggled airplane mode. I've odin'd older and newer modems. So far, nothing has worked.

In one of the posts I read, I found a list of Sprint/Samsung's "#" codes. These allow you to view/change various things in your phone. I dialed ##786# and found my baseband ending in EE03 (Correlates with current modem). My wimax was EC04. I then dialed *#1234# and it showed samsung's firmware. My PDA ended in EB13 and my phone s: was EE03.

My frustrations were only exacerbated when my buddy on T-mobile stood next to me and pulled constant 10+ speeds!

I've read numerous posts from people in other markets pulling speeds from 7-12... I'd settle for my 4-5 again! Side note: this is a valley wide (Las Vegas) problem for me... I chose to focus testing on 1 particular tower that had given me good speeds in the past.

So...

1: Am I effin crazy? Should I be happy to have crappy 4g because many have none?

2: Could it be a combination of rom/modem/kernel that is causing my issues?

3: Could the discrepancies between the build modes (or what appears to be) I got from the "#" codes be an issue?

4: Is sprint BS'n me? Could they actually have 4g issues and that be the cause?

5: Is there anything else I can do/try to improve my signal?

I know slow speeds aren't the end of the world, but I have a job that allows me to play on my phone quite a bit. I always use wifi at home, but would love to be able to use 4g @ work again.

Thanks in advance for any help! I know it was a long read! I just want my epic back... I can't fathom going back to my POS hero! Lol!

[Epic 4G General] Atlienzz:
You are not alone in this. I do not have an explanation but there have been several threads here and over at android central of people on Sprint complaining of slow speeds and whatnot. Some people believe that a bunch of roaming agreements Sprint had with some other carriers have dropped off over the past few months and many people that once had great service are now getting crappy service. Since you specifically are complaining of 4G speeds this may not be the case for you, but you certainly are not alone when it comes to people all over the country recently complaining of slower speeds overall.

[Epic 4G General] muyoso:
Did you think to try an official rom/modem instead of the leak you are currently running? Like EC05 for example?
[Epic 4G General] JohnCorleone:
I am in SoCal and used to get 7000-8000 bpbs upload speeds and lately they have been topping at 4000. The upload speeds are consistently in the 1400s. EC05 modem..can't explain it. Its like its being capped
[Epic 4G General] traumajeff:
Yeah... I was on EC05 when my problems started. I went on to the next one in hopes that things would improve.

This is driving me nuts! If there's something I could fix, then I'd love to figure it out. If its sprint that is sucking right now, then I'd at least have an answer.

I'm gonna odin in different modems later today and see if any perform better than another. Fingers crossed!
[Epic 4G General] dr_gibberish:
This seems to be on the right track to me. Do you know anyone else who has an Epic (or any other 4g phone for that matter) preferably running stock? See if they come up with similar speeds at the same place at the same time.

Barring that, I would try to put your phone back to bone stock Froyo and see what you get. Not sure how fluent you are with this, but just boot into CWM and backup. Then use Odin to get to stock Froyo. Don't install any apps, or do anything else to it. Test it out on 4G for a while in the same time and place. If that does not work, try some of the 4G fixes listed in these forums.

If you get decent 4G speeds with this configuration, you know it is something specific to your phone (and more specifically to your software) and you can restore the backup and try replacing just the modem or other tweaks. If you cant get decent speeds running stock, then just restore your backup and curse Sprint and wait :)
[Epic 4G General] MikeyLee:
Personally I have had such fluctuation that I think Sprint is holding out. I'm sure that they have the capability of limiting data connectivity and speeds and I have heard rumors of them doing this in the past. I wouldnt put anything past Sprint at this point. Maybe give them a call and ask then why you are paying a "premium data" charges with the data speeds are no better than with the Hero. I had some better expierences with my old Moment before I changed to the Epic.
[Epic 4G General] MikeyLee:
I dont think "official" is the answer. I just got my dad a brand new Epic and it's completely stock and it's slower than mine and I'm on EF02/EF10 GB. I may do a side by side video of the two phones and see just how much of a difference there is.
[Epic 4G General] traumajeff:
None of my family/friends have 4g on sprint... kids are rocking some POS sammy sliders I got for free, and the woman has a BB Curve. Maybe I'll stop into the local store and see if I can mess with the demo phones.

I thought about going back to bone stock, but I'm gonna go the easy route for now and run through a few modems. If that fails, then back we go!
[Epic 4G General] BigOnes69:
After you update your modem go here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=925898 and update your 4g and 3g connection times. Worked for me.
[Epic 4G General] traumajeff:
So here's an update...

First... thanks for all the help/suggestions!

I had already increased my signal strength and refresh rates to no avail. I tried several different modems out and all had the same results. Averaging about 1.5 up and 1 down. Given these findings, I figured it prob wasn't me or my phone. I called CS again, and this time the rep confirmed that the tower in my area was the problem. I asked if it could be a city wide issue and she couldn't confirm this. Being a paramedic, I know most of our zip codes, and they all have issues!

So... final conclusion is: 4g in Vegas sucks right now! Boo!
[Epic 4G General] running_the_dream:
I'm in philly suburbs and my data dropped a little over a month ago as well. I was getting 1.5 d, 0.3-0.5 up in 3g and 7-8 d, 3 up in 4g. But recently, I have only been getting 0.5-0.8 d in 3g and 3-4 d in 4g. It's some straight up BS

Call the Microsoft Support Hotline, tell them you bought a used HD7 (or any other WP7 device) on eBay or Craigslist and that the provided activation key is already in use so that you need a new one.

On setup, just hit back when you get to the first back button...if that does not work...starting in a clockwise fashion...touch the corners of the screen with the top left first then hit the android..this also bypasses the setup feature.

Yes you'll be able to use apps and all that without activating it. Obviously you won't be able to make phone calls. Most android phones don't need activation to get into the OS.
[Nook Color General] Nard Dog:
OK, I am going to be getting a couple NCs for the wife and I. So I have been doing a lot of reading and want to make sure I have a handle on evrtything. I have decided that CM7 is the way to go. If I am understanding correctly I basically create a CM7 image on an SD Card (cheap Sandisk seems to work best???) and then I can run it from the SD card without installing it on the internal memory of the NC. That way I can pull the SD card, reboot and have a stock NC. Is that right? Will the performance suffer from running it from the SD card? Are there benefits to installing on the internal memory? Also, if I do install it to the internal memory, how do you use it as a normal NC? Do you just get the Android Nook app? How does that compare to the actual Nook software? Do you lose any functionality? My wife will use hers primarily as an e reader whereas mine will be a tablet first. Does anyone have experience using different browsers like Skyfire and Opera? Those are what I use a lot on my phone. I have seen the name Dolphin HDused alot, but I don't know anything about it. I am sorry for all the questions and if my terminology is not 100% accurate. I am, as the welcome video says; a noob.
