[EVO 4G General] Award Tour:
The issue is having multiple devices using data at once. If you download a file on your phone and then transfer it to your computer or tablet you are only using data on one device. Tethering unlocks the ability to use data on multiple devices simultaneously (2 for usb, 2+ for wireless). When tethering, Sprint can not control how many devices are connected and sucking down resources, so the only way to have a chance at scaling is to make people pay for tethering. On top of that, data usage on a laptop is much more demanding. Media streaming on mobile is more limited and uses lower quality streams. A good quantity of websites on your phone are also mobile friendly. Sprint without a doubt accounts for this when they determine how to scale. If you're not paying, you're abusing.

That's why I think it's fair to argue for free tethering on capped plans and not unlimited plans. With capped plans the carrier accounts for a certain hit on the network based on how much data they allocate to your account. There's no accountability with unlimited plans.
[EVO 4G General] Jaytronics:
Prehaps, but, even on the unlimited plans there is a five gig limit. That does not mean we can't go over that limit some times. It means that we should use caution within that area of usage. As suggested by our carrier's. And they can see how much bandwidth is being consumed in one or many sittings and how frequent those sittings are. Heck, they even know what sites we visit and how often. And this, is mostly all automated. So, there is no real need to cap any one. Rather, those that abuse the system should be slowed down. Let them download a seven gig file, just cut there speeds in half. Or even in quarters if they are overly abusive to the system. And then it reset next bill cycle. This is far from impossible. ISP's do this all of the time. The only reason for charging for external usage is to make a killing. While raping the customers of there money. Granted some are willing to pay for it. And can afford it. But, that does not make it proper. Or ok to do. Just like our devices are ours to do as we please with. Our allotted bandwith is the same. We pay, we decide. We abuse, we pay. Not in more fees but in slower speeds. Again, I can not stress this enough. All ISP's can and do do this. From land to wireless. I will never pay to use my bandwidth as I see fit. But, I will not abuse it either. And in doing so, I will not get a speed cap. And one more thing again, unlimited data does not mean unlimited data. If you read the fine print on our unlimited contracts. It states the five gig limit. Well, at least with VZW it does. I am all about supporting them to bring faster internet and better voice connections. But, I am not into being raped by them. This opinion that I entertain will never change. No matter how you try to justify these companies trying to rape us. They did it with the ability tobtransfer via bluetooth and in other areas. This tether cap vail will not stick in the long run, no matter what anyone says. At least not with me and several/many others. Don't get me wrong either. I respect you opinion just as I expect others to respect mine. Granted in my first post I told you guys that you had thick skulls. That was uncalled for on my part. And I do apologize for that. Any way, I believe that on this matter with so many opinions. We should agree to disagree. And leave it at that. An do as we see fit with what is ours. But, we can go at this for ever if we so desire. Either way it is no skin off of my back. Any way, good day.
[EVO 4G General] dbolot1:
You are right, in case of earpiece: you are using earpiece to receive/send voice data while using your phone as an access point to Sprint voice network, and in case of tethering, you are using another computer to receive/send internet data while using your phone as an access point to Sprint data network. In my opinion the situation is almost identical; the difference is bluetooth for voice and wifi for data, but what about bluetooth tethering?
[EVO 4G General] Award Tour:
I've said this about a million times but this isn't identical. In one case (bluetooth headpiece) you are mirroring the voice data, the other (tethering) you are creating a separate request. You're phone can and is still receiving data while the laptop creates it's own individual requests. You can theoretically, and in practice almost always, be using both or even multiple devices at the same time. It's not the same.
[EVO 4G General] dbolot1:
Sprint defines the service that they provide as Unlimited in volume and limited in bandwidth, roughly 1Mbit/3G and 10Mbit/4G. Tethering multiple devices to a phone does not magically open additional bandwidth, you are still limited by the phone's connection, therefore, it does not matter how many devices are tethered. Having multiple devices will not result of utilizing more bandwidth that that which were allowed although might result in utilizing larger volume of data, but the volume which we can use as defined by Sprint is unlimited. Also, all the carriers know that people tether, how come there has been no criminal case about it?
[EVO 4G General] Award Tour:
It doesn't matter if doesn't open bandwidth, Sprint has a separate for pay add on for tethering to additional devices. I'm sure they would be more than happy to terminate contracts if you were bypassing the fee.

By the way, I have no doubt that Sprint is worried about the additional volume that can be created by laptop/desktop use. A phone stays on idle for a majority of time sucking in only small bits, and even when active and doing something intense like streaming, it usually is a lot less intensive than the HD streaming and higher resolution images found through desktop use.
[EVO 4G General] Jaytronics:
Correct, not the same. But similar, in that the carriers tried to charge the customer for file transfers. And they even went so far as to limit what we could transfer. Now in the case of dual data transfers while teathered. It still chips away at the limit of alloted five gig transfer. Instead of just the phone or just the teathered device. But, both using at the same time. By the way, I am not saying this for you. I am mearly stating in detail what you stated. So that some that read this and don't understand will. If said in detail. Any way.

So, in such a case. I belive, that what should happen for people like me. But the ones that tend to do a lot of facebooking and Twitter like things on there phones. I belive that the dev's that made an will make there WiFi teathering apps should try to incorporate an option that would allow the person teathering to shut down the phones data transfers for all apps that try to connect and transfer. Kind of like Droid wall does. That way it could help in there phones not doing double time on the data transfers. And then, when the teather app shuts down. The phones apps are restarted by the teather app. And if I were one of those devs. I would make the WiFi app on initial setup search for all data consuming apps and allow the user to select what apps he/she would like shut down at the time of teather activation. And again, allow the app to start those individual services once deactivated. I don't think that would be to unreasonable for the betterment of the rest of there fellow data consuming brethren.
[EVO 4G General] Jaytronics:
In reply to the part about US content. I use Google music like many others to stream my music collection. But, not only that. It is in a high bit rate format. I like my music to be close as possible to CD quality as I can get it in mp3 format as I can get it. So that uses a bunch of bandwidth on its own. Again, I'm not a varsity hog. And am trying to share it as best as possible.

Title says it all.

Hey guys, I come from optimus one forum and want to ask questions and some opinions here since I can't find galaxy Gio forum.

Is it worth it? I'm so fed up of my O1 has some problem with multitouch axis and touchbug. I know theres a kernel for it but its custom kernel and it still doesn't fixed it completely.

I want to sell my optimus to buy gio. Gio has nearly same specs with ace except camera, ignore that since I don't really care with the camera. Is it worth it?

I see ace and Gio plays some heavy games like Gameloft perfectly and smooth unlike my O1.

I wonder if your ace and gio can be overclocked from 800mhz to 900mhz+? because my O1 can from 600mhz to 865mhz maximum.

So tell me your opinion. I know that ace and Gio has less ram than O1. What problem has you encounter with such a low ram? Or there is no problem at all?

Thank you. :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] consegregate:
For 2.3 gingerbread your background apps get closed a lot, that's all for ram. Overclocking not under development yet..

Edit, I'm referring to ace. Gio forum is not here.. I chose ace though because of the Turbo 800mhz.

XDA ♥
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] shotgun32:
So upgrading gio/ace to gingerbread is not good?

Incase if you didn't know gio has same specs as ace. Except the camera with 800mhz Turbo too
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] hassaan123:
no man. dont go for gio. Optimus 1 is better than gio,and has a great dev support. Instal cm7 on your O1 and enjoy. Either go for ace or keep the optimus 1
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] shotgun32:
Why would you want me to keep my O1 but go for ace when ace has same specs as gio? Except the camera
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] consegregate:
Gio has a lower CPU speed isn't it?

Edit: yeah nearly similar specs but still i'll go for ace unless there is a better development support :D

XDA ♥
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] shotgun32:
No. Ace and gio has the same specs but ace has 5mp camera and other is the same
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] ^Deadly_Sin^:
Meh...gio has a smaller screen if i'm not mistaken. it's 3.2'' while ace has 3.5''. Also gio doesn't have a led flash, ace does have one and it's quite useful (for me at least). All in all there aren't many differences between the two but ace scores more points with a bigger screen, led flash and better design ;)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] shotgun32:
I said the specs is the same 'except the camera' :) and except the resolution too which is not a big deal for me
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] mckennal:
I have both (well, my wife has the Gio, I have the Ace).

Ace has much better camera (Gio has no flash), and can take shots at night (though still not great photos).

Ace has slightly bigger screen, but same resolution - so Gio is actually slightly sharper screen.

Ace looks a bit nicer (IMO)

Ace seems more popular so there are more aftermarket accessories, and has a budding dev community (Gio has very little to no dev community AFAIK).

Gio appears to have less SOD's due to Wifi+sleeping issues (but I haven't tested the Gio too much in that regard)

Everything else seems to be the same (including the Wifi "Error" bug - at least with stock fw's on 2.2.1).

All other apps/etc/etc run similarly on Gio and Ace (with my limited testing).

Luke
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] shotgun32:
Thank you for your comment and user opinion. And btw im not talking about ace, im talking about O1 vs Gio ;)

I dont really care about camera so would you recommend me to buy gio? And im not planning to upgrade my phone to a high end phone. I know gio and O1 is a budget phone.

Btw what is SOD? :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] shotgun32:
I really like ace though but its too expensive i cant afford it so thats why i reconsider of buying gio instead of ace xD
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] fahim_avalon:
well, bro , first of all ACE's processor can be overclocked upto 1.2 GHz stable, secondly ace doesn't have low ram, it has 470MB total ram with 278 MB for user and 192MB for OS, so ram is actually not a problem either, the only current problem with ace is that it still officially doesn't have ADOBE FLASH, without it Ace has no other problem, well, this is an ACE forum so we know about ace, but sorry, no data about Gio for your questions
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] shotgun32:
Thats good news ace dont have ram problem. Which gio will not have problem aswell.

Say, i dont care about flas player and camera, do you recommend gio?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] shotgun32:
Btw dude, flash is working now with armv6 phone. My optimus one support flash. Check out optimus one thread. I think ace can support flash too just as my O1
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] mckennal:
I think the gio is excellent value for money, it's a fair bit cheaper than the ace, but very similar in spec to the ace. I can't compare to the O1 as I haven't used one.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] hassaan123:
Well i would never recommend you to shift from O1 to gio. Gio has no dev support !! O1 has a great dev support and i wonder why you want to shift. Gio also has low ram whereas your O1 has more ram and can be overclocked to perform well. If you were shifting to a better phone , then that would had made sence. But spending money and shifting to a completely same device with 0 dev support wont be a nice decision.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] shotgun32:
I found galaxy gio first custom roms xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1136798

And it has darktremor a2sd enabled :D
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] hassaan123:
Thats not a proper rom :-\ . Tell one good reason why you want to shift to gio? And btw gio has SOD ( the phone turns off itself) and wifi problem too. O1 may have few problems but they have been fixed by the devs
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] zeguym:
Between ace and gio, i choose ace. For some silly reason. I don't like gio model, ace just looked like iphone. Although i'm not fan of iphone.

Second reason is, i want camera with flash, cause i never have phone with flash :D.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] rhadrio:
So its between Gio and the O1, eh?

I've seen a lot of people giving their opinions based on the technical specs between those two here. So I assume you've already known that.

So now it all depends on wether you're into Android Tweaking / Advanced customization or not.

If you are, I'd recommend you to keep that O1 or maybe replace your phone with a new one. Since O1 have a really good dev-support. Even our Ace is a no-match compared to it. :(

Otherwise, you can give Gio a go. ;)

edit:

After havin' a couple of walk in the Ace forum, I've come to learn that you are interested in Android tweaking. :rolleyes:

I believe this is yours. :)

So now I would really recommend you to keep your O1 or replace it with a new one. :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Spevky:
Dude don't very big misstake man...
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Spevky:
Go with the gio
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] shotgun32:
Tell me good reason why its not a proper rom?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] shotgun32:
Oh good opinion, iam intersted in a little tweaking but i already found a custom roms here xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1136798

It has battery tweaks and darktremor a2sd enabled which is enough for me :)

All gio need is a good custom recovery.

Well the reason because O1 got dev support bcos the phone is full of bug and its still doesnt fixed the multitouch axis even with a new custom kernel out everyday. Even the official gb stock kernel still doesnt fix that.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] shotgun32:
Nevermind guys, i will buy gio anyway and selling my optimus by monday.

Thank you for your comments and opinions.

Im sorry if im on the wrong forum bcos gio doesnt have its own forum :/ thats why i posted here. This is the best place to post bcos gio and ace specs are nearly the same.

Alright this thread is closed. But hopefully some dev will make a custom recovery for gio or a custom roms, that woukd be great too.

Thanks again :)

People should be very skeptical about messing with the memory management in an OS.

Same thing for task killers...they can be helpful to kill an application(to stop it from running in the background), but an auto task killer is generally not a good idea...not on android and not on Linux or windows.

Free memory says nothing, as it's better to use memory then to not use memory performance wise.

Not saying that this can't be the exception to the rule(bad idea to not use the OS's internal memory management), but i'm not convinced.

I wiped out my working very good CM7 installation after taking a backup (both RM and TB) and tried following the instructions. I have read through the entire thread and followed the advice of other posters as well. My CWMR is 3.2.0.1. But whatever I do, my final flash of CM7 overwrites my previous [hard] work and gives me a single boot only to CM7.What is worse, when I restore backup, I get missing apps and widgets and my Zeam Launcher is not restored.

I thought the idea of having the RM backup and restore was to get everything back exactly as it was. I spent a whole day trying to get Stock and CM7 working as a dual boot configuration, but it does not work for me.

I have tried installing the CM7 Dual Boot zip but that gave me the same result as well.

The only thing I am doing differently is that I am not rooting stock. I don't need to do that so I end up running CWR from SD Card for flashing CM7. Don't know if that is the problem.

Any ideas?

Well first u can download books in epub format from many websites. Then create a folder in either sd card or htc tablet named as ebooks(for convenience).put the books in here.
