I've been a lurker on these boards for a while now. I rooted a while back, S-OFFed. And that went smooth. Sat back and wondered if HTC were going to do anything about the 2.3 upgrade. Watched the fallout of the RRU debacle and decided to bite the bullet.

First I went with Cyanogen, and was shocked at how nasty stock android can be. I understand some of the concerns of other handset owners...

Don't get me wrong, I always used to use a different launcher (with a 3 screen dock). But Sense was still there in the background.

I tried an InsertCoin ROM next, as I decided I would rather have sense in the background. However I don't think I had installed it correctly. As I had very little ROM left for applications (I had previously some time ago done the old EXT3 partitioning when I got a 16Gb SD card).

I tried to run a few scripts to sort it out, but it kept saying I hadn't got any scripts (??) and no EXT card... So, I must have done something wrong, but I have had to take a lot in about how android worked in the past day or so.

So I thought, ok, fresh install of a ROM, and had got the bug. (It's easy isn't it!).

So I tried RCMix S Evolutionary.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=988570

That had a script waiting for me.

This ROM installed very fast (CM7), and after running script I have 125Mb free of ROM, and it seems to be putting any new installations on the EXT partition.

The Sense 2.1 + 3.0 works very well. I enjoy the new features, have loads of free memory. There doesn't seem to be a slow down when reading from SD card (Class 8).

I did nearly have a heart attack when I couldn't get it to install, or any ROM to install, until I realised I had forgot to mount points. (ha ha ha)

Very happy bunny now.

Still amazed though that HTC themselves kind of give up the ghost when we have small groups of DEV's putting them to shame. But then, there is a world of a difference between a Job and a labour of love.

Thank you guys so much.

It seems like nothings happening with this phone and I dont know if I should buy it, because if I cant root it or do anything with it its just not as fun? so does anyone know how to root this phone and flash roms on it etc etc?
[HTC Salsa] vickyboicancan:
my gf bought this phone

i'm just waiting for someone to come up with a way to s-off and root it so that i can move apps for her

it's irritating cause only some apps can be moved in its current config

hoping someone comes up with something soon
[HTC Salsa] DDFF:
my gf thinking to buy a salsa, it seems a nice phone, however based on what u people's comments, the biggest problem is internal memory! so would u people recommand salsa or Nexus S?
[HTC Salsa] Crudeoil:
NexusS is FAR superior (Hummingbird ARMv7,powerVR sgx540 GPU, MUCH more internal memory, community support, development....).. the thing in my case, is that my GF was on a x10mini pro before and find nexus S huge.. She wanted something small and didn't care about performance (as probably anything would be better than her previous x10minipro) .. As I have a desire she thought HTC are well built and bought this one..

As I said on another post, besides internal memory I think it is a good smartphone, but if your gf doesn't mind size.. then go nexusS.. you/she won't regret.
[HTC Salsa] DDFF:
thanks man, very useful....I am using DHD and I would recommend my gf of Nexus s,and if she wants, i can get it root which not gonna happen on Salsa.
[HTC Salsa] Drschplatt:
I have this phone as well. Overall, it's actually a pretty decent phone. Performance, size, speed, etc are all mid-range quality and I do love the smaller size.

The only down side to this phone as has been mentioned is the limited internal memory. I'm just waiting on a method of rooting so I can get rid of all the useless bloatware and move the rest of the apps over to the SD card. The phone comes with 512 mb of memory but on my particular phone here in Taiwan, after the OS install, and all the bloat ware I have around 120mb to work with. Between email, contacts, and like 4 apps. I'm out of space and can't do anything else. It's very frustrating.

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hi_red:
Hi guys,

I got a few problems with my arc after rooting process. My arc was 2.3.3 version and downgraded it with wotan to 2.3.2, rooted, upgraded it 2.3.3 (UK version). But now I have problem with camer and browser.

Internet browser does not open any sites with 3G but when I connect with Wi-Fi there is no problem, I can open sites with stock browser. With 3G connection I can connect facebook without problem with fb app.

My camera got an interested problem. I took picture it shows right side of the screen my latest photos, I can open them. When I go to galery and look at camera pictures I cannot see latest pictures taken in there. Sometimes later (5min) taken pictures section in my camera screen was empty. And in galery camera folder I cannot see any images. When I look with astro file manager to my sd card pictures were there. I opened it with default picture viewer but it shows me only black screen. I opened pictures with astro galery viewer and I can see pictures. I think I will rpr it my phone with seus and use it without root since this kind of problems drives me crazy.

Am I missing something?:confused:
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crazymister:
Have you tried re-flashing you're phone, also clearing user data? This usually solves those kind of problems

I did hard reset. Now I can use stock web browser with 3G connection. But now my home button is not working :) I cannot open camera also only black screen appears and back button also not working :S I have to restart phone when I open camera. Last solution is re-flashing but I wont do that, only removing bloatware was my reason to root so I should keep going with bloatware :/

Is anybody else finding that browsing on the Transformer is painfully slow?

We all know about the browser keyboard lag (really annoying) but finding web pages slow to load, especially if it is more complicated Google+ for example.

Does rooting and using Prime for example make any differences to performance of this device??
[Eee Pad Transformer General] gn9746203:
it did make a big difference and also u need to tweak it abit on those animation becoz it did improve it ! i just flash to prime 1.6 yesterday with blades's kernel 1.7 OC to 1.6ghz and it open everything in a flash ! it is really fast

but the stock browser is well known laggy if i am not mistaken they it is fine when using opera

[Eee Pad Transformer General] eli.kennedy:
I'm rooted on prime 1.6 with a 1.6 OC. Performance is notably better than stock.

Agreed - dolphin beats stock browser for speed but not for rendering accuracy in my experience (I have not run dolphin 6.0 against the acid3 test yet.)

All in all - browsing on all my mobile devices (Transformer, iPad, Samsung Galaxy S, HTC HD2) with any browser (Safari, Dolphin, Opera, Stock honey comb etc) just makes me wish I was using Chrome on my PC. It would have to be number one on my wishlist for the next generation of devices. Give me a super fast and easy to use browser and I will forgive any amount of OS/APP/Hardware concerns.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] seh6183:
That's because you haven't tried Opera Mobile.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] seh6183:
Opera is the fastest browser hands down in every category.

Opera just seems to hang when loading certain pages. For example I just did some speed tests using the same site for the stock android browser vs the Opera browser. The android browser routinely takes 3 seconds or longer to render any web page. The Opera browser will sometimes be displaying all its content but never actually finish loading. It's a glitch.

Don't get me wrong, Opera definitely is the fastest, but it is not without it's faults. You can enter a wall of text into a chat reply box only to have Opera completely delete all of it when you go to send it. NOW THAT is frustrating.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] chatch15117:
Try turning off opera turbo. It makes slow connections faster(compression) but it actually slows down fast connections merely because of the extra step going to the Opera proxy servers.
