...and here is a link to all my Clove Blog stuff for those with lots of time on their hands who may have missed the earlier Sensation of SGSII stuff:

i've been an HTC customer for my last 8 phones. and i've been a very happy customer.

but when i got my htc sensation i only had it for 1½ week before i got tired of the constant lag. i couldent even scroll trough my contacts without without it lagging.

and my rooted HTC Desire out performes it in scrolling trough pictures, batteri life and quadrant score.

i have sent my Sensation back and now i have my first Samsung phone (Galaxt S2) and i was really surprised of the performance it is really fast and i think i'am gonna stick to Samsung untill HTC stops making a new phone every week and maybe make a good phone again.

But thats just my opinion.
[Galaxy S II General] EarlZ:
Despite the issues with the SGS2, its a better phone in all aspects aside from the metal vs plastic body.
[Galaxy S II General] hahni91:
SGS2

Of course the SGS2.
[Galaxy S II General] InspectorFrost:
i had the sensation for about a week before taking it back to the store and exchanging for the S2

i was totally underwhelmed by by Sensation, and thats a phone i was completely hyped about too

the s2 on the other hand, i thought was magic as soon as i got it....not perfect but it still blew me away

still, if you are vodafone uk, you have a 7 day grace period to return your phone for exchange if you dont like it

(thats also in store, not just for stuff bought over the internet or phone)

FACT!
[Galaxy S II General] nicpol7:
dont forget that both are dual core phones but sensations snapdragon cpu is last genaration..its miles behind the dual A9s of exinos chip..
[Galaxy S II General] -A-P-M-:
I had HTC phones and I prefered them. SGS2 is first phone which chsnged my mind and is the best phone I had. Also if you look previous generation phones, you can see that SGS1 already have Gingerbread for a few months, while Desire still got Froyo. So Samsung gives faster updates than HTC. Also SGS2 is my first phone where everything works great out of a box
[Galaxy S II General] raxwow:
I really like HTC's quality but GS2 is much more powerful.
[Galaxy S II General] jbdeq:
Just came from iphone to SGS2 and absolutely love it.

Wife also finishing iphone contract and convincing her to get one as well. Astonishingly quick and responsive phone.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kmkings311:
Having a rooted Nook (CM7), I'm looking to stream video to it via DLNA. On my PC, I have the application "PS3MediaServer".

My Thunderbolt has the "Connect Media" application, I was curious if there is an app/method of doing the same on the Nook (or really any other non-sense Android device)?

Any suggestions?

-cb
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IFLATLINEI:
I've done alot of research on the subject and I would always end up getting discouraged because idiots write these crazy bad reviews on much of the software available that's perfectly capable. Finally I settled on TVersity and it works great. I can access all my media from any one of my devices but most importantly my Nook with CM7.

There may be better options. I wouldn't know. I didn't need to check into it any further.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kmkings311:
But, what Android app would you use...? If you are looking for a DLNA provider application that serves on your PC, I would check out "PS3MediaServer". Awesome application and works on anything that accepts DLNA.

I'm just looking for an app that plays DLNA, not the server app.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IFLATLINEI:
I'm sorry. I was just trying to provide a solution that worked for me and solved my issue which was similar to yours. I used to have the PS3media server but I stopped using it because of TVersity. I had no idea it could stream to android as well. I'd like to try it again. Anything I should know in regards to setting it up. I'd appreciate it.

So are you just looking for a player? Have you tried MoBo Player? I use it for everything now?

Or I'm thinking now your looking for an app to navigate your media so you can select to stream. I would have thought you would use your browser for that. Sorry. Search the market for an app called Skifta. I just downloaded it and gave it a run. Much more elegant compared to my browser method and finds all my media servers. I'm happy to say it works great with PS3Media server so far.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tiezane:
I have aVia on my Thunderbolt, and it's pretty slick. I am running eyeballer's CM9 nightlies on the Nook, and haven't been able to get anything to see the DLNA server there. The server itself is an older Gentoo box with minidlna running. Runs solid to the Logitech Revue, too.

[Vega General] FrancoBegbie:
Hi, I've got some Mp4 video's i've been playing back quite happily on Custom ROM R8 and have today put Vegacomb 1.7 on and these files do not playback. The only way i can get them to play back was to load Moboplayer and use software decode.

Anyone got any ideas or is this a bug in Vegacomb? Tried to post it in the Vegacomb forum but couldn't.

Cheers.
[Vega General] Pai.Tincho:
On custom R8 you played them with default media player?

Did you download Moboplayer codecs?
[Vega General] FrancoBegbie:
Hi, yeah sorry, on R8 I used the default player. On Beta 1.7 the default player just gives "Fail to load" message.

Even in Moboplayer just selecting the movie gives the message "this file cannot be played by the system player, please long press it, and select soft decoding mode to play it"

As far as codecs go not sure which on i need for the Vega? can anyone advise?

Thanks

Thanks for the replies.

I have the same problem. I don't like to go back, I like the VegaComb. Isn't there anone who can tell how to solve this problem?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nimdae:
This is just a note to those that use CM7 and want to manage their CPU settings (overclock, etc).

I didn't realize at first that CM7 now includes CPU management and went to use SetCPU first thing to set up my usage profiles. I discovered that CM7 has its own CPU management built in and it appears SetCPU doesn't work well with it.

The symptoms I found were:

Profiles would not work correctly in SetCPU

Conflicts would occur that resulted in unknown CPU settings (unknown as you don't know them, they are not displayed properly)

Bluetooth broke (this seems random)

All of the problems that came up since installing SetCPU went away after removing it and rebooting (including the bluetooth issues). You lose the profiles support, but eh, it's not really necessary and didn't work right anyway.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] robramirez007:
No wonder I was having so many problems with SetCPU. Thanks!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] robertafoster:
I was getting ready to install it on my rooted SGH I777and decided to check on compatibility before I did. Glad I saw your notes. Where is the options in Cyanogenmod7 management on my phone? I see the performance option but the warning message I get makes me think I need to leave that alone.

[General Questions and Answers] bruno_123:
when i left my dhd in service shop today i had a small conversation with one of the workers and he mentioned sth about bypassing someway around some of the phones broken parts so it would work normaly again and these so called bypasses are often built in by manufacturer , he did tell me that blackberry often does sth like this but so do other companies like htc and samsung, so now i'm asking some of you hardware specialists is sth like this possible and if it is could we do it??

honestly guy from service shop was dead serious and i find no reason for him to lie because when i asked him about these bypasses he would tell no more instead he told me that i'll be taking money out of his pocket if i figure it out xD
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bibifuk:
Hi all !

First of, a big thanks to everyone involved with this forum. You guys are doing a great job.

Now to my concerns:

as system administrator, I spend half of my day working on some hosts via ssh. When I got my TF101 I was so psyked to see that there were android ssh clients, thinking that I could also use my tablet + dock as a backup working station.

But after trying all the (free) ssh clients, it seems that none of them can use the Ctrl key on the dock's keyboard. I mean, what the point of an ssh client that doesn't understand the Ctrl key.

After rooting my TF101 I flashed Prime1.5 on it. I though that the terminal emulator in it would help a bit but I ended up finding out that there is no ssh binaries on android so far.

I might give a shot at the native ubuntu installation to see if i could work with it, but I kinda like android so I would prefer to stay on it.

Does anyone have the same problem as me ?

Does any dev around here know of a solution ?

Could it be possible to compile for android the openssh client from the GNU sources ?

Thanks in advance.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] makec3rt:
This might works. (will take some reading)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ldrn:
makec3rt's link does work. This is the APK:

https://github.com/downloads/lorantkurthy/connectbot/ConnectBot1.apk

This is a different branch with similar features:

https://github.com/downloads/tcoxon/connectbot/connectbot-transformer.apk

The first one has right-alt support and more tablet features, while the second one has right-shift+numbers for functions and a more phone-like interface.

I ended up buying Better Terminal Emulator Pro (can't have external links cause I'm too new). It supports Tab, Ctrl, and even lets you remap Back to Esc. It seems to solve all the problems I had with it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee one:
Not sure if this adds any insight, but I used Connectbot which works with Hackers keyboard. I paired my TF with a bluetooth keyboard and the ctrl key did not work.

I haven't dug into it yet, but I'm hoping it's just a key mapping issue.

sent from my cyanogen(mod) vision
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sassafras_:
Just use Hacker's keyboard.

It works great with the original ConnectBot or the HoneyComb update that is floating around.

Edit: I misread and thought you were talking about the virtual keyboard. The modified APKs ldrn linked to should work nicely. Note that by default they will not act any differently, you must change a setting to set it for the "Asus Transformer Keyboard"

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tortel1210:
There is a modified version of ConnectBot that is designed to use the Transformer's keyboard correctly.

EDIT :: Oops, same links as post 3. My bad :P
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bibifuk:
Thanks for your replies.

So I've tried the modified ConnectBot App and it indeed make the ctrl-key .... well kindof work.

It seems that only some combinaisons are mapped, for example: Ctrl+c and Ctrl+d wor fine but neither ctrl+a nor ctrl+e are recognized. Also the key combos used in 'screen' like ctrl+a,n don't work which is still a big problem for me.

I don't think that modifying a software made for phone in the case of a ssh client. They have no real line editor. it's like typing an sms and send it to the terminal.

In my opinion the best, most proper and probably not too hard solution, would be to find a way to compile a real (from the linux/bsd world) ssh binary that can be used through the terminal emulator on the TF101.

I'll give try to Ubuntu on the TF and see for myself if it can b worth a shot...

thx again.

Is there an app or is it possible to develop one that can display the battery life of your bluetooth device on your phone? I use bluetooth headphones at the gym and cant easily keep track of the life in them. If a dev can do this, it would be great in the notification bar instead of widget. Thanks.

You act like the developers need users, when it fact, it's the other way around lol. Developers first and foremost develop for themselves and then later share what they made with the world. No Rom developer is getting rich off this, it's a hobby.

There's a reason you dont see developers asking where the users are, but you see plenty of threads from users asking that question.

Users will go where the developers are or they wont get their work.

I have titanium backup and I'm planning to do a reset, but will all my game data (in gun bros) be saved or only that apk? Any program that can do that?
[Android] TarheelGrad1998:
Generally, if you backup and restore "User Data", then your game data should be saved as well.
[Android] javier911:
My question was because when you download some games, they download additional data
[Android] howetechnical:
Most saved game information gets stored on your internal storage, which Titanium Backup will grab as long as you select user data as well. The additional data that downloads from games over WiFi (as well as some save game information on wonky games) gets saved to your SD card, so as long as you don't wipe that out (or grab a backup before you do), then you're fine.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azulgranas:
Hi everyone,

I've just updated my phone to VillainRom 2.0 based on KG1.

Now i want to remove that yellow triangle when booting up.

I read this Q&A in topic villainRom.

Q: How can I remove the yellow triangle on boot?

A:

After flashing VR1.4, boot to system and install VRTweaks from here - VRTweaks.

Run the VRTweaks app and Install the Symlink Fix, reboot.

Now boot into Download Mode, flash any Stock kernel with ODIN. Wait for phone to reboot.

Go into the CWM app and flash the zImage extracted from any CF-Root kernel zip/tar.

Your phone should now reboot and voila, the triangle is gone.

But after installing VRTweaks, i can't see the symlink fix in the fixing list.

Can anyone help me to solve this problem.

Thanks in advance.:)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rumble6059:
there is no requirement for a symlink fix as this was fixed within the update iirc. so, to remove the triangle do the process above [ignoring the install simlink fix from vr tweeks] just do the rest of it and it

should

work.

alternatively, get yourself a usb jig, turn the phone off and put this in. it resets the "custom ROM" counter in download mode

and

removes the pesky triangle.

hope this helps, Rumble

Thank you very much
[HTC Desire S] kartikk:
newer radio generally have a newer version of the drivers for wifi,your network,etc

so it

may

increase your battery life and give you better signal reception

but a newer version may not always be better because different radios perform differently in different regions

& also flashing a radio is more risky than flashing ROMs

so if you are fine with your current radio i would say dont replace it

but generally speaking most people say that they find the radio that you currently have to give them the best performance
[HTC Desire S] djdigy5:
Thank you for the information. I was worried about the wifi performence of the phone but i think the LBC mod will do the thing for that issue.

Installed... no soft-brick. Not sure why it pushes ADW and Launcher2. Uninstalled them both promptly. Unlock sliders and some theme elements are from CherryBlur mashed up with some AOSP elements. I already had DSP manager, so i cant tell if that part worked or not. Theme manager doesnt show up after install (noticed it in the zip.) HDMI mirror APK did install, did not try it yet.

Framework is kinda messy too. Black on black menus (black font/black background) Your DSP manager crashed(installed over mine): I believe you need library files to get it to work right... mine had a hack to run a modded CyanogenMod lib that you could install alongside the Atrix libraries without replacing them.
