Which are the easiest ways to root AND unroot my SNS (GT-I9023, android 2.3.4)?

:confused:
[HTC EVO 3D] jcar23424:
I am getting random force closes with sense on my evo 3d. It says the message "The application HTC sense (process com.htc.cs) as stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.

I believe ive narrowed it down to be a problem with htc sense sync. When i turn off sync the message dosent appear. But of course when i turn it on and say to sync all i get the message.

I was hoping it was just a problem on htc's end but its been happening for about a week now. Ive done two factory data resets but the message comes back when i setup sense sync.

This is my 2nd evo 3d, the first one i returned because of a pinhole next to the button pad the would let light through so trying to avoid calling sprint.

anyone else have this problem?
[HTC EVO 3D] tehbeetus:
I have not really used Htc Sync but my suggestion is to just wait to see if in the next update they fix it. It's not worth taking the phone back.
[HTC EVO 3D] jcar23424:
thanks for the reply, I guess ill wait it out but would be better to know if someone else if having the problem.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnyardavid:
I downloaded rom manager and it said there was an update for my recovery. I installed it (version 4.0.0.4) and then flashed launchpad kernal. So far no issues. Just curious if anyone else has usedit or knows what improvements have been made.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bwcorvus:
CWM 4 uses the internal memory. This means you will not be able to see your external sdcard in recovery. Other then that it is great.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnyardavid:
Thank you :)
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] okantomi:
Unless you don't intend to use your external sdcard for flashing or to hold a Android backup, I would recommend that you "downgrade" to solarnz's recovery from his thread in Development.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sublimaze:
Try the font size option in Spare Parts basic settings

Or try font changer from the market and change your font to alex. I hate these massive fonts too.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 00negative:
Spare parts just works on OG Droid and within app itself. But thanks for idea.

And I would like to know if or more where it sets it in the code. I changed a .ttf on PC swapped it in system fonts folder and created a custom rom and it still came in the same size so must be code setting it to default size.

Or you can change your screen density. But everything goes smaller. Depends on how much you put it.

Screen density normal is 240

Smallest is 190 (still readable)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] EyeAndroid:
Just trying to figure out what's the pros and cons between a 1.5ghz single core and a 1.0ghz dual core. Like which one would be faster? Where would I notice these differences?

I'm trying to details decide between the flyer and the transformer.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Renegade360:
While I see where you are coming from on processor speed, The processor wouldn't be what I would be most concerned about when choosing between the two. I'd be looking at the mobility issue. Flyer fits in my shorts pocket. It's hands free when not in use but available whenever needed. Transformer have to carry around in hand all the time or in a bag. It is added bulk, & I found when only using a 10" device I didn't carry it around everywhere with me. It was a couch surfer.

Back to the original question. In my experience with the Notion Ink Adam Dual Core Tegra, The Flyer blew it away speed wise when running single apps and in general operation. The Tegra chip starts catching up when running multiple processes, like switching between open internet pages and other apps all running at the same time. Majority of apps aren't built to utilize dual core for speeding up their processes.

Picking the Flyer or the view isn't about processors or operating systems it's about functionality and portability. The flyer will be there when you need it, the 10" will be on the couch when you need it.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] redpoint73:
Previous post answers it quite well. In general, a higher clocked single core CPU will be faster within a single app than a lower clocked dual core CPU (although design differences between chip manufacturers means that straight comparison between MHz is not always a reliable point of comparison). Just like with PCs several years ago, there just aren't enough dual-core phones around yet for app developers to support multiple cores in their apps. Where you will see the dual core excel, is switching between apps, running lots of background processes, etc. But eventually, as multi-core phones become more commonplace, app developers will likely add support into their apps.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] EyeAndroid:
Thank you gentlemen, nice to see those responses. Those replys helps me make the decision.

Thanks again,

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] andmaf:
Maybe this will make a little sense....

Another important factor in speed is the memory, not just memory as in ram but memory as in cached memory that is built into the processor. I'm going to try to make a little diagram.

p1-->L1--L2

L3- shared ---->Ram

p2-->L1--L2

So in this diagram p1 is processor one, p2 is processor 2, and all the L1's...etc are cache.

L1 is the fastest, smallest memory cache, memory size increases as you move to L2, L3, Ram, but memory speed slows down.

Basically everytime the processor has a new task it puts that task on a stack(in one of the caches). So the faster it can unload and reload that stack then the faster the speed. Thats where processor speed comes in. So a bigger L1 cache means it can store more tasks in its stack in the fast memory cache making the machine run faster(processor can access the tasks quicker)

Now this is why the Flyer out performs so many dual cores. As someone already mentioned, most applications aren't optimized for dual cores. That means that it can only take advantage of half of the combined L1. Then on top of that, it is only 1gz so it can't unload and reload the stack as fast as a 1.5 ghz can. Does that make a little sense? Ha.

I'm not exactly sure what the hardware structure is of the tegra2s, I doubt they have an L3 cache, I'm pretty sure (99.9%) thats a quad core thing, so they probably share the L2 cache.
[HTC EVO 3D] boobaroo:
Is there any app that works well to get screen shots with the 3D?
[HTC EVO 3D] {ParanoiA}:
Yea qtadb will do it. Its a GUI of adb
[HTC EVO 3D] awenthol:
Until root...full root...you'll have to use ADB to get shots...
[HTC EVO 3D] fedge1234:
with temp root u can use dropcap from the market and with no root i think theres one call shootit or something like that but it's like 5 bucks... search the market for "screenshot" most will say root required i think theres one that doesn't.
[HTC EVO 3D] cubanjinx:
That app is a sham. You still need a comp to actually take the shot.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sLiKK:
This might have been asked before but I have some specific questions I need to ask.

I bought a bigger sd card for my vibrant. What do I need to do before and after mounting the new sd card so that I dont loose any data that is on my previous sd card.

I found these instructions in another thread. Wondering if its safe to follow these and if I need to do anything else.

1. Using usb cable connect your phone to a pc as a hard-drive. Copy all the files on the phone into a folder on the pc.

2. On your phone, go to settings > SD & Phone storage > Unmount SD card

Turn off your phone, open up the back remove battery and SD card.

3. Insert new card, replace battery and cover. Turn phone back on.

Settings> SD & Phone Storage > Format SD Card

4. Once formatted then copy and paste all the files on your pc back into your phone.

Other questions I have:

How do I make sure I dont loose my nandroid backups and titanium backups?

Also, How can I make sure camera/gallery saves all of the newly taken photos and videos to the new sd card?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kawika:
You could just turn the phone off completely and switch out the cards.

- As to nandroids and TB they default to the internal SD so they should still be there unless you move them urself.

- For new pics and videos. In the camera app change the settings to save to SDcard its default set to phone Good luck!:)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jnorth89:
^^Agreed.

Everything that apps store on your phone defaults to your internal SD card. So unless you manually moved stuff to your external MicroSD, there probably isn't very much on there, except maybe the avatar movie if you still have the original 2gb external card that came with the phone.

But seeing as you're upgrading your external SD card and will be at a computer, I suggest making a backup of everything on your internal SD card too, just for safe keeping. I have a backup of both my internal and external SD cards on my computer, and every once in a while I copy over any new files just to keep an updated record. It gives me peace of mind knowing that I'm ready for any unexpected SD corruptions. I think it's a good habit to get into.

Good Luck!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kawika:
^^Agreed^^

Backing up to PC is always a good idea. I backup my nandroids and TB's as well. I also hide them on my friends and families PC's:eek:shhh, they'll never know.

Anyone here come from a Vibrant or other Galaxy S device? If so, what are your thoughts? Would like to know how the screen and snapppiness is compared to the Vibrant. I would like to pick up a Sensation when it gets root so I can get custom ROMs on it (not the biggest fan of developer skins, I may just wait for Nexus 3 if it is made by HTC) and was just wondering how it stacks up to my current phone. Thank you!
[HTC Sensation] bl4k0p2:
I came from a Vibrant. I hadn't even been looking to upgrade but I did. The battery life is fat better for me. The build quality is better and 2.3 official rather 2.2. Oh and Sense is the ish!
[HTC Sensation] lgcage:
I had a rooted vibrant with ffc mod. I picked up a sensation two days ago.

My opinion is sense is cumbersome. I replaced the launcher after the first day. I would call the overall feel of system response comparable. Like the galaxy this, at times becomes a bit laggy and slow to respond. The rear camera certainly takes better pictures. As far as videos, i find the 720 recording to be slightly better as well. I did a handful of 1080s over the 4th and thought, neat! and then changed it back to 720.

I think 6 months down the road after a few system updates, root and home brew roms this thing will feel like an entirely different beast.

[Q] Flash different modems?

The gps problem on my Samsung galaxy phone only got better when the develpers pulled out the various modems from the leaked Roms so they could be flashed.

Some modems worked much better than others depending on the ROM.

Would our winderfil developers, whose shoes I am not worthy to wipe, consider doing this?
[Acer Iconia A500] FloatingFatMan:
Umm.. Wrong section? This is a tablet, not a phone... Unless you're talking about the A501 model, the wifi model doesn't HAVE a phone radio...
[Acer Iconia A500] secularhuman:
The gps was controlled by the modem.

I know the Acer has no 3g, but thought maybe the modum controlled gps/wifi.
[Acer Iconia A500] FloatingFatMan:
There is no modem. There's a wifi chipset and a GPS receiver, that's it.
[Acer Iconia A500] OrionBG:
A tablet is more like a PC. You have a CPU in the form of nVidia's Tegra2 250 SoC, and addtional components like WiFi Adapter, Bluetooth Adapter, 3G Modem (in some cases) and so on! They are separate devices (although on the same PCB). On the other hand Smartphones are much more integrated and one chip (or two max) serve all functions! This is why there is Radio.rom that affects both mobile and GPS/WiFi.
[HTC EVO 3D] Wingilot:
Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this or if it has something to do with my settings.

This has happened a couple times lately but after ending a call the lockscreen appears and continuously switches back and forth from sleep to lockscreen. The notification bar is highlighted green and if I am lucky or quick enough I can swype my passcode and bring down the notification bar. From there I have to end the call again if it doesn't just go back to sleep or the lockscreen.

This is my first smartphone and touch screen so do you think I am not ending the call properly, i.e. not touching the end call long enough, or would it have something to do with my screen timeout settings. Or am I just missing something completely.

Thanks,

Wing
[HTC EVO 3D] ranger61878:
It does that after you end a call? The notification bar will go green when you are in a call and, say, go to an app...essentially what you are doing is putting the "phone" app as a background app, and the notification bar is green to let you know you are in a call...I've never seen it after ending a call. Are you sure the call is actually ending? You should just have to press "end call" and it will end it.
[HTC EVO 3D] Wingilot:
Okay. Yeah I guess I'm not ending it properly but it is odd how when the phone call is not ended and the lockscreen appears, it flashes back and forth so quickly that it makes it very difficult to unlock and end it. I don't think I am pressing the power button to lock so I am guessing it is the screen timeout settings. Thanks.

[Nook Color General] priller:
Howdy folks, many thanks to all the devs who brought us CM7 and all things Android for the NC!

One problem I seem to notice on the internet browser (android browser) is that I can select a bookmark or manually type in the address and hit GO, and the new address shows in the address bar.....but it won't actually go out and download the data (no green loading bar). The same symptom can occur when selecting a link off of a page.....it recogizes that I touched the link, but it never actually loads.

I had to reboot last night to get the symptoms to go away....which seemed to work.

Maybe we all experience this, but even when it's operating normally, the browser will sometimes have a considerable delay from when choosing a link or bookmark, but eventually will start loading the page.....

Is this normal? I'm on CM7 running from SD card with no nightly builds....

Thanks folks

[Nook Color General] neidlinger:
you need to understand that even though you are running Cyanogen Mod's Stable build it's still built by a team of developers and might be buggy. It's RAW android. It's ever evolving, ever changing. With that being said. Try holding your finger on the link until a window pops up and select open or "open in new tab". I've always had that problem on Cyanogen Mod ROMs. But typically, as you mentioned, a soft reset will remedy the problem. But i don't find it worthy of discarding the ROM.
[Nook Color General] priller:
Thanks neidlinger, I will try holding the link to see if it will respond better....I agree, not worthy of discarding the ROM.
