[HTC EVO 3D] mr.orange303:
I would proudly own either. I may be the only person on earth who would miss the 3d.

Both seem to have great power.

The EVO3d is by far the more future proof of the 2.

But none of us will honestly own a phone long enough to care.

2 years max for the most of us. There is nothing that makes one better Nike worse than the other.

1080p on the sgs2. 3d on the EVO3d.

Really the speeds will differ. Per user. The screen is preference.

I prefer the amoled. But have no jealousy in owning a qhd.

The games are the same on both. Some in 3d on the EVO.

This argument has no real winner. One is faster. Can't be argued. But by how much would require a photo finish and if that is worth the return and wait process for some. Get it. If your like me and use the phone for media. The EVO is good.

No real need to update.
[HTC EVO 3D] PaulB007:
I really feel strongly that the galaxy s 2 benchmarks better because touchwiz is closer to vanilla android than sense and is way less bloated.
[HTC EVO 3D] swaze:
Exactly

sent from the HTC evo 3d
[HTC EVO 3D] LiquidSolstice:
Bloat has nothing to do with speed. At least, the word "bloat" and the way you used it is not related to speed at all.
[HTC EVO 3D] PaulB007:
I feel that all of the extra eye candy sense has to offer bogs down the system, mark my words, I have watched a vanilla ROM on other HTC devices make them run like a whole new phone. The EVO shift is a great example, benchmarks went insanely higher on evervolv and cm7 which are aosp roms, where in comparison sense roms were slower and benchmarked lower.
[HTC EVO 3D] LiquidSolstice:
Again, you're not hearing me. The word "bloat" has nothing to do with speed. Bloat, in computer terms, is simply unneeded features which complicate or increase the size of a program. HTC Sense could be FASTER than AOSP and still be considered bloated.

You're correct, Sense requires a lot of RAM, and not having it increases free CPU and RAM noticeably. To refer to Sense as "heavy" rather than "bloated" would be more correct.
[HTC EVO 3D] GrimReaper24:
Lmao wonder if anyone is gonna trade there 3D for a epic :D
[HTC EVO 3D] PaulB007:
Thanks for the clarification, I wasn't conveying myself properly.
[HTC EVO 3D] str8upx:
Yes the processors are different but have the same capabilities should preform almost exactly the same. The reason the benchmarks are not the same is due to the UI's and screen resolution. Once we can put the same OS, Kernel, UI, etc on both phones I believe the scores will be just about the same.

Personally I dont know why people care so much about these stupid benchmarks in the first place and why anyone would use them to compare devices when they are completely useless unless they are running the same software, is beyond me.
[HTC EVO 3D] GrimReaper24:
LMAO :D benchmarks are kinda boring who really cares about a small number change in things. As long as it works and looks good thats all that I care about. I have been checkin out the EPIC samsung thinking about that it seems to be just as good as the evo mius the screen size. Smooth as can be .
[HTC EVO 3D] gabemeyers:
well before the sgs2 comes out the epic 2 will be released, before that happens the photon..

july 24th aint happening, not to flame the rumor mill subject but...

photon, epic2, unknown htc (kingdom), sgs2

I've heard that after the photon theres a 60 to 90 day time frame before they will all be available, now add in that Sprint as a company isn't stupid + give some 30 day time distance between similar devices = and i wouldn't expect the sgs2 until late September early November for Sprint anyways, the 24th date was for north america (canada) I'd assume...

But we all know what we do when we assume...
[HTC EVO 3D] poweroutlet:
The extra overhead of running a heavy overlay such as Sense will without doubt cause a hefty decrease in benchmarking performance on the Evo 3d.

The Evo 3d running a clean build of android will certainly perform significantly better in both real world and benchmarking usage. I suspect that the Evo 3d's benchmarks are lower than the SGS2 because the 3VO is burdened by sense and has to drive a significantly greater number of pixels. Assuming the same conditions, the hardware should be very similar.

EDIT: Nevermind, I realize now you are arguing a different point entirely (the meaning of bloat).
[HTC EVO 3D] LiquidSolstice:
Nevermind, saw your edit.

Yes, I completely agree with you. "naked" Android (or CM7) will always run faster and better than Sense, TouchWiz or Motoblur.
[HTC EVO 3D] rdwing:
I have until 7/29 to return or exchange my device...if the SGSII drops before then you can bet I will be over to it.

After 7+ years of HTC crap...i'm ready to be done with it.

SAMOLED+ looks real nice!
[HTC EVO 3D] LiquidSolstice:
Yeah, right. HTC are crap devices, especially because HTC phones were and have always been the king of this forum, and really set off the custom ROM revolution with Windows Mobile. :rolleyes:

You can go deal with Samsung's genuinely ****ty programming, because there's genuine complaints with those.
[HTC EVO 3D] rdwing:
They are pretty **** quality...bottom of the barrel LCD's, shoddy build construction, high lemon rate!

This is a flagship phone...look how washed out it is. Look at the numerous complaints due to bad quality! (Broken vibrator, dust under screen, misaligned screen, defective radios, broken charging ports!!) All these things in less than 30 days...unacceptable.

It's my understanding that SGSII has open bootloader right? Custom rom...
[HTC EVO 3D] LiquidSolstice:
You know, until the last line of your reply, I thought you were talking about the original Samsung Galaxy S...

That should be saying something. You can keep whining about how you don't have full root, or you can wait. Those are the options. The rest of us who are mature adults have no problem in waiting.
[HTC EVO 3D] snoopy1e11:
The gs2 will not drop July 24th because the Photon 4g drops July 30 or 31st they wouldn't put two high end phones out that close together
[HTC EVO 3D] JoshuaAlba:
I wanted to in the beginning, but after playing with the At&t version I changed my mind. I love my E3D way too much :)
[HTC EVO 3D] iModMM:
I have a evo 3d and I'm only keeping it for the devolopment. I was thinking about getting the sg2 but idk. I'm happy with this. The only problem I have with the 3vo are these dam forums. Theres too much Htc die hards hating on samsung. People just wonder if they're trading in there evo for the sg2 then you got the fanboy come in and spends 2hrs on a thread hating on samsung. And who cares about benchmarks, both phones will be fast etc!! I owned the epic 4g and og evo and believe the epic is better than the evo, hardware wise. Evo is better software wise. Epic had a sickass keyboard! But can we keep the dam hate down in the forums!!!
[HTC EVO 3D] irishgreen:
This must be a joke!!? the EPIC better than the OG EVO...HELL NO!!! I had OG EVO and my wife had EPIC..she went thru like 10 of em before switching to the evo...the epic was cheesy constructed..LAGGY as hell, freezes..so terrible..Samsung has a huge reputation for putting out phones that are disapointments(being nice there) Instinct, intercept, transform, captivate, vibrant...the list goes on....
[HTC EVO 3D] danaff37:
Just want to say to all those thinking if the SGS2...

The Epic has a more powerful graphics chip than the original Evo. Almost sold me on that phone, but went with the shift instead. My wife got the epic. Not only did that graphics chip not make a lick of difference during the life of that phone, but it its plagued with software problems that are still not ironed out to this day. Galaxy s phones just recently got cm7 support, but the epic still doesn't have a fully working version yet. And, the epic got its official froyo update just a couple of months ago. The evo and shift got ginger bread just after. I believe the nexus s is the only samsung phone stateside officially running ginger bread... If there is another it is brand new.

Consider that before trading "up," I'll be keeping my slick ass 3d phone, thank you very much.

[HTC EVO 3D] Joey121215:
Not sure is this was mentioned but quadrant scores are so different because they only run through one of the cores. HTC has the processor using one core for the front running app (Quadrant) while everything else runs in the other core.
[HTC EVO 3D] JGW310:
Most likely the Galaxy S2 will not end up getting released within the 30 day time frame that 3VO owners have to trade in. So in answer to your question, they won't be swapping out their 3VO's for Galaxy S2's without coughing up at least $700
[HTC EVO 3D] mr.orange303:
Of course not. That's all companies all day all the time.
[HTC EVO 3D] empiire:
Not gonna lie, it is pretty tempting to make the switch. My friend has the original Galaxy S on T-Mobile and he loves it, with good reason. SAMOLED+ is tempting and the hardware inside it make for a good combo that can rival the 3VO in my opinion. I got my 3VO only last week so there's a possibility that I'll be able to make the switch, but I don't think I will. I love my HTC too much to abandon it.
[HTC Desire S] dan-fish:
Hey guys

Just seen this ram optimisation script and was wondering whether it was compatible with the virtuous unity rom. I don't know whether or not the kernel supports init.d.

Any help appreciated
[HTC Desire S] yerfdes:
up for this question... i am interested if this would be available for ours
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hax0rpunk:
I upgraded to synergy rc1 from myns and have been having some issues. Turns out its because I flashed a netarchy kernel. Was hoping someone has a link to the stock kernel that comes with Synergy.

Thanks
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
You can simply re-flash the synergy rom right over it, and it'll fix it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hax0rpunk:
I know...I'm out in the field working and I don't have the Rom on my SD. Would be much easier to download and flash the kernel.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Now we have a problem batman...and I haven't seen any stand alone for the kernels, since its stock gingerbread, you may have to wait. I looked but I didn't see any as of yet.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hax0rpunk:
Mmm that's what I was thinking Robin...guess ill have to wait till I'm home...thanks anyways m8
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Mmm...robins...-drools- And no problem brah. :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HipKat:
I have it, the wireless-n version. But my roommate has my usb chord, so if you can wait a few hrs til I get home from work, I'll attach it for you.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Sweet, good look. Though you can always sync it to dropbox, then copy a public link [placing it in the public folder] then do that, if you have a dropbox that is.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HipKat:
I do, but I never used it... lol

Let me do that now
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HipKat:
Uploading now.... hold on

Here it is: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/23549230/supersonic-kernel-HTC#1_and18-WirelessN-signed.zip
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
I'm sure it'll be appreciated. :eek:
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HipKat:
One of the threads in the Dev section has it, which is where I got it from originally, but I couldn't find it, so this works. Thanks for the heads up on Dropbox.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hax0rpunk:
Thanks a lot...you saved my day!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HipKat:
No prob! Glad I could help!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tropicalbrit:
RC2 came out at least yesterday, maybe before, I'm on my phone so I can't tell. But it definitely is worth the upgrade
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abusedcloth:
Time to upgrade to RC2...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neitmrh15:
RC2 is secks IMO
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gunfromsako:
Everytime I try to download the rc2 it just downloads

Synergy-RC2-supersonic-1.htm

No matter what mirror I use... Any ideas?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HipKat:
A different browser

re: incomplete/failed synergy rc2 download

Hi there! :)

I received one of those download "errors" myself.

From experience, when you click on the link, choose "save file."

If tyou are using a download manager (I do), it will cause a those .html files to download instead of the actual file. I sincerely believe download managers "confuse" the hosting server.

Try the above trick. It may take about 10 minutes so grab some coffee while you wait. =)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gunfromsako:
Thanks for the suggestions I tried using dolphin browser and the "save file" option neither worked...this is the dl url http://s177.filesonic.com/download/...1b/0/7661cbda2e09e0c53b1562d2a168b8f8e444cfe9. Still says its a html file... Ahh ne browser suggestions? Maybe flash a different Rom then try it again? Running synergy rls1 - supersonic. I wanna upgrade errr.
[HTC Desire S] codryn:
I saw that on DS are 2 chips. I have the faulty one but in 2 months of use I didn`t had any error. So if you don`t pull battery out you cant brick your phone right?

[LG Optimus 2x] freddy_krueger:
Hi paul has just release a new rom based on leaked LG GB rom

See this

http://android.modaco.com/topic/343...tom-rom-for-the-lg-optimus-2x-online-kitchen/
[LG Optimus 2x] Kickasskev:
What other kernels will be compatible with GB, I tried a CM7 one but I just got stuck at the boot screen
[LG Optimus 2x] kruppin:
At this point, no other than stock kernel can be used.. Have to wait for LG to release updated sources. The newer P990h source also results in boot-loop evidently. Hopefully LG will release the source at the same time as the full GB update.
[LG Optimus 2x] Kickasskev:
hmmmmmm so it's just a waiting game, wanna clock it and run sum bench marks :-)
[LG Optimus 2x] Marsou77:
Must be a premium member to download ? I didn't find the link :(
[LG Optimus 2x] N0r0:
For now its needed until Paul releases a prebaked version ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] ownjoouk:
Will wait for a public release then. Not donating for the sake of testing a Tom.
[LG Optimus 2x] fajarep:
thanks for the info, gonna bake to test it :)
[LG Optimus 2x] Harsh:
I installed and it run great. Same feel as froyo stock in looks, but runs much more smooth. And lock screen lag is gone. Also Ntp time works perfect.
[LG Optimus 2x] AENIGMA:
is there an fm-radio-app included and whats with videocalls?
[LG Optimus 2x] mboisker:
2/3G data connection still error
[LG Optimus 2x] casper326:
What error?
[LG Optimus 2x] andrew.matten:
can someone please upload the ROM so I can make some stock gingerbread themes.
[LG Optimus 2x] thatguychris:
Will have to keep an eye on this one
[LG Optimus 2x] AENIGMA:
that is not allowed by paul
[LG Optimus 2x] fajarep:
not allowed to share bake version
[LG Optimus 2x] Topogigi:
That's not entirely true: if you modify a baked version you will be allowed to publish it as it happens in Fear Edition (which is MODACO based).
[LG Optimus 2x] navlem:
That's not entirely true: If you have a baked version you can only share it when Paul releases the pre-baked version.
[LG Optimus 2x] Topogigi:
Prolly you're right, but help me in finding where the rule to not redistribute his work when published is written
[LG Optimus 2x] b3ndech0:
buy Modaco adfree ore plus if you cant wait.
[LG Optimus 2x] navlem:
I know the rule because i've talked to Paul personally before. He said it.
[LG Optimus 2x] Topogigi:
That's indeed a fair solution
[LG Optimus 2x] mboisker:
baseband and apn setting is correct, but still canot connect internet using 2/3G
[LG Optimus 2x] xXZaufiXx:
does this rom contains the lg ui or stock launcher?

if yes, is it better then the previous ?

some screenshot would be nice ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] Meltus:
It looks identical to the froyo LG theme, but everything's been 'improved', speed wise.

Scrolling on the LG home between screens is still strangely laggy, but the lockscreen and app draw are very smooth, as are menus, etc. :)
[LG Optimus 2x] MadCobbler:
Yeah you will notice that there are a lot of Roms based on the Modaco rom, but Paul has always said that no one is allowed to release their own versions of it till the pre-bake is out, so Navlem is 100% correct. That is exactly the reason I joined and paid for the adfree version so I can get the roms a little earlier...
[LG Optimus 2x] Kickasskev:
Yeah I paid yesterday just to try the GB and I must say, it's damn smooth and lag free, im using BB 405 and havn't really had any problem yet, other than trying to install big apps form market and it says my phone doesn't have enough memory, but that happend on MIUI aswell.

One thing I can say is that when this is released there will be some great FAST ROMs being made up by the DEVS :-)
[LG Optimus 2x] k101d:
Just need to know how much ?? (not see the detail in modaco site)
[LG Optimus 2x] neovdr:
This paying for leaked open source software is very sad indeed. If you want gingerbread and you ,like me don't like paying for open source leaks, get CM7!
[LG Optimus 2x] destilant:
...Paul released "some leaked" GB version from LG for o2x, but "his" GB version may not be offered to others than the people that "pay" for that...

so a leak is not official and is a sort of a "stolen" software from a company...and if you offer this and ask for money, that anybody can download "something", in this case this leak, its very ironic, that no others may download, expect they pay for this piece of software or leak...never mind...
[LG Optimus 2x] wc326:
not really, paul will release it for free at some point.

it is for those who doesn't want to wait, like me. and donate to paul for his hard work that is most important.
[LG Optimus 2x] ionhide:
Dont know if i understand it right, but first of all, i would want the right to choose whether to donate or not, myself. Secondly, forcing people to pay for open source freeware, thats illegal to my knowledge.. Modaco is bending rules i think..
[LG Optimus 2x] Sckank:
+1 on that. And the stuff you can test is just unfinished stuff. He usually is quite fast to get it final and then release the free full version.
[LG Optimus 2x] wc326:
yes, if i can pick btw CM7 and MOdaco 2.3 i think Modaco rom will at least be much more stable at some point.

CM7 still have not fix the flash video issue. after like 3 months already?
[LG Optimus 2x] paulobrien:
Just to clarify, it's in a kitchen while I fix the issues and add the features, just for a couple of days. It's a way for me to put it online while I develop it without having to rebuild a ROM every time I make a tiny little change.

It'll shortly be available, as always, for everyone to download / base their ROMs on etc. etc.

If you have any issues with this please feel free to contact me directly on MoDaCo.

P
[LG Optimus 2x] TheBo:
I may be mistaking but.....

from what I know ...you don't pay for a particular rom, you pay to have a particular service on modaco, which include among other things no ads on modaco, and , the possibility to have access granted to a special online Kitchen Paul has made, and from where you can produce your customized rom.

So you don't pay for the leaked rom itself....it' a bit different.

If I'm wrong please correct me.
[LG Optimus 2x] ionhide:
You are correct.. On my own behalf i think modaco is too expensive :-)
[LG Optimus 2x] salisbury_steak:
Think of it this way guys.

Paul can simply choose not to publish his beta ROMs and keep development to himself.

I know it's a tease to show you something that you need to pay for (while other ROMs seem to give it for free). But a little patience in waiting for the public release build (which doesn't take a long time at that) won't hurt. :)
[LG Optimus 2x] fredisco:
Paul is the best

It's correct, and it's the best money I have spent. Paul is putting countless hours of his life helping us to customized ROM's so I can have it exactly as I want, and also for several phone models. Kudos Paul!

..Besides, when I payed the last time, all the money went to charity!
[LG Optimus 2x] omiblack:
+ 1 it's not illegal somewhere?
[LG Optimus 2x] paulobrien:
For info, from my MoDaCo post...

Once again, nobody is paying for a ROM. Nobody is asked to pay for a ROM. No ROMs are made available without prebake downloads being released when the ROM is ready. MoDaCo Ad Free has been around since 2003 etc. etc.

P
[LG Optimus 2x] somemadcaaant:
Cmon ppl, consider the obvious...

Paul has many services, site, storage of said services, his own time plus hard work and most of all development for our community which by no means should be free simply because you want it to be so, there is always a cost involved to some one and in this case it is to Paul and he still releases a free version to the public in a short time.

A developer has a right to charge for his services, this is not a warez site and never will be.

-smc
[LG Optimus 2x] sangriaman:
I think too many people take every dev work as free.

Stop being assholes ans support the devs of thw roms you like.

The support can be respect. just respect.

Kudos for your great work Paul.

sangriaman
[LG Optimus 2x] Mjuksel:
I dont get it , why all the flaming is going on..

Why not close this up until Paul comes with his own GR1 topic?
[LG Optimus 2x] MadCobbler:
+1

and at the end of the day Paul doesn't charge for his services because eventually he releases the prebake for free... and before he releases the prebake I would imagine that he spends quite a lot of his own time making sure its ok for release

People pay to become adfree and get access to a whole host of services MoDaCo offers and one of those services just happens to be being able to cook your own roms in the online kitchen. I for one didn't see it as paying for the rom...
[LG Optimus 2x] omiblack:
I never mean he doesn't deserve donations, and but those are not donation it's just a subscription.

And yes, I they are selling you their work, if you want it first you must pay for it, not take it and if you are satisfied by that give a donation.

Cm always worked with donation and was/is available for everyone who wants to test it also in nightly/beta mode
[LG Optimus 2x] MadCobbler:
Well then wait for Paul to release the prebake and then try it 'for free' and if you think it warrants a donation... make one - its as simple as that
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] killerb777:
is there a watermark'd theme for CM7 for the Dinc (verizon)? I thought I saw one but searched showed nothing...
[HD Mini General] [ACL]:
I just wanted to congratulate the devs. Looks like there has been a lot of progress. :D
[HD Mini General] htcminiandroid:
Me too, i can't wait for the next release. Hope it's coming soon. I can't believe, i never have to use this annoying wm6.5 anymore.

Thank you guys, you did a wonderful job so far
[HD Mini General] fernando2610:
Devs rocks!! Thank to all you for all the progress and all the releases.
[HD Mini General] Dan09021982:
good work sir

tnx 4 sharing that impormation ,i hope you release new version hehehe,take care sir:)
