[HTC Sensation] abrown0809:
The sensation 4g doesn't show the difference between 4g and 3g. Even when you have 3g, it will always say 4g. I don't know why HTC did that, I would like to know when I'm not in a 4g area, but that's how they did it. When you drop down to edge, it will say 2g, but UTMS/HSPA and HSPA+ is shown as 4g.
[HTC Sensation] frostyroot:
T-Mobile's so called 4G is just 3.5G. Basically a better version of 3G but just set at a higher frequency meaning that you won't be likely to get "4G" if your in a very crowded area. I used to have 4G all the time with my MyTouch 4G but I guess it probably has something to do with the phone.
[HTC Sensation] tbgreen89:
Thats really weird. I guess T-Mobile doesn't really have the greatest 4G now do they?
[HTC Sensation] raybez:
HSPA+ is technically 4G, but there's no more 3g to fall back to.
[HTC Sensation] vinas1:
So is every other carriers 4G. True 4G is faster than your local area networks are right now! So it's all a joke.

but HSPA+ can do 50Mbs and the Sensation can do 14Mbs according to T-Mobile.

LTE can do 50Mbs but in real world delivers about 12Mbs that I've tested. HSPA+ does about 5 to 6Mbps. So it's all a sham and depends on factors like tower saturation, proximity to the tower, etc. Really it's luck of the draw with HSPA+...

The difference is that LTE uses the 3g radio so LTE devices fall back to that and display 3g. With the Sensation it just knows it's running on HSPA/HSPA+ and throws it all in the 4g category. I wish they would come up with a way to detect regular HSPA/3g and display it, but they probably won't.
[HTC Sensation] frostyroot:
And since the 3G's radio is easier to get, real 4G LTE is way more common than HSPA+.

What is your firmware or ROM that you are running? That way we can help you more. It could be a firmware related issue. I have a few ideas for solutions if you like the option of reflashing the phone.

That has happened to me twice, what i just did was give it a few tries waiting a few minutes every time and not letting the screen go off, then cancel the download or update and try again, once you get to do it once it will be normal the rest of the times.

What abt hot pursuit .??
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] children34803:
Playing NFS hot pursuit , you have to download .apk (qualcomm) + data (power VR), and use Chainfire3d Power VR plug in to play this game. If you wanna get high performance in graphics , you have to use MSAAx16,x4(optional) and may activate unroll texture (optional). But sometimes it will be laggy when you use MSAAx16 and select unroll texture. So I hope this post can help you.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] w98seeng:
I have an I9000M from Bell (Running on Telus) unlocked but not rooted.

I have had non-existent GPS since Kies updated me to KG3. I tried a couple of things but nothing helps.

For the hell of it, I flashed JVR (stock) that I got from samfirmware.com. The GPS was almost instant, showing 9 sats in about 10 seconds.

There is a Swisscom screen that appears when booting, so obviously this ROM is the Swiss version. Is there a problem with me using this Swiss stock ROM on Telus?

Can I go back to KG3 and still flsah something from JVR to get the same great GPS performance?

I went back to KG3 and flashed the JVR modem without any luck.

Is there a combination I can do ?

Thanks,

Ian
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DT3CH:
If the Swiss JVR is working for you then use that only issue you may have is some Market apps not being available to you CSC specific ones mainly, if you do run into that problem then you can always try Market enabler or Root Toolbox

I havent been on a Bell ROM since I bought the phone and never had issues with running EU firmwares

Also it seems weird that you being on KG3 with the JVR modem doesnt work, you could try just for ****s and giggles JVR with the KG3 CSC and see if that does anything, if it doesnt one other option would be to use KG3 with the KC1 modem, just do a search on here for CWM modems
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] w98seeng:
Thanks for this. Since the Bell ROM's never did much for me (Or the phone) I have wondered about using EU ROMs (or others) for a long while. I probably will try JVR for a bit and see how it works.

Many Thanks,

Ian
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lgsshedden:
you can flash jvr (pda) with kg3 (modem) and kg3 (csc) that way you get the gps, the 850 band and the correct csc stuff
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greeced:
If I have KG3 already installed, (All 3 portions), will just installing the JVR PDA portion work keeping the KG3 modem and KG3 CSC intact?

Or do I have to do it the other way around?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DT3CH:
No prob, if you dont like the standard Bell ROM, you could always try out different custom ROMs too, GB and CM ones

That should work, if you experience any problems like a boot loop (unlikely)

Just do as stated above by shedden, flash JVR PDA, KG3 modem and CSC
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dlockhart:
FYI if you do NOT use Bell's CSC it WON'T re-install the bell bloatware
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greeced:
I don't really care about Bell's Bloatware.. my whole thing is being able to download from the market as I usually did.

For instance.. When I tried JVR before KG3 was out, I couldn't download "Bell Self Serve" from the market, says it wasn't available.

I wonder if those of you who have done the JVR PDA / KG3 Modem / KG3 CSC Can actually download that piece of software, or will it still not allow you to.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tamasabian:
I have just flashed .627 radio and then INJECTEDTHEORY 6.01 rom. All seems to be working well, however, my speedtest app shows 4G speeds at about 6-8Mb down on average. That's not a problem necessarily, but before I flashed a rom and was just running stock root I was able to pull 10+ Mb down nearly every test.

Is this difference in speeds due to the new radio? Should I try a different radio to see if I can get back to the speeds I used to get? If so, how would one go about flashing a different radio when you are going to keep the same rom?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] voxigenboy:
i havent tried any speed tests, but was having trouble with Skype. bad sound, dropped calls... so i switched back to 2.5 and its working a lot better.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loonatik78:
In my experience speed tests are a bunch of crap and virtually never are accurate, and I can prove it. I absolutely would never use a speed test to determine the performance of a radio.

As for skype... I guess I still don't get it.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dr Jeff 281:
what would you suggest using to determinate a radio's performance?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yareally:
download a large file via wget on the terminal from a high performance server (like a service pack from microsoft) and time how long it takes and then divide it out. Or if you can script, write a bash script to do it for you.

Speed = (file size in megabytes / time it took in seconds)

multiply by 8 if you want megabits.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] METDeath:
The Speedtest app is notoriously unreliable on our phones for some reason, I'm not sure why... but it is.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yareally:
I made a script that will do what I mentioned in the last post for you. It will let you choose 1 of 5 locations within the US and UK to test your speed against. The files are given out by my hosting provider to test their data center speeds so they are pretty fast. To run it just do the following:

1) Download the script

2) Move it to a directory you can execute it from, such as /data/local/tmp by a file explorer or by the terminal.

3) gain super user privileges on the terminal (type "su" without quotes)

4) go to the directory you put the file and modify the permissions so you can run it:

cd /data/local/tmp
chown root speedtest.sh
chmod 755 speedtest.sh

5) run the file, picking a data center as an argument like so

atlanta, georgia:

./speedtest.sh a

dallas, texas:

./speedtest.sh d

fremont, california:

./speedtest.sh f

newark, new jersey:

./speedtest.sh n

london, england:

./speedtest.sh l

If you don't enter any letter after the script name, it defaults to dallas, since it's geographically in the center of the US.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tamasabian:
I guess I will probably never notice the couple of megs difference anyway. So far the rom is running incredibly and I have had no voice or data issues so I will just see how it goes.

The guys at INJECTEDTHEORY make great roms!

Thanks for the help.
[XPERIA X8 General] aldee_s:
Hey, i just want to make this quick. I am trying to build a ROM here for X8, and one thing that makes me really think is whether to make it faster or look nicer. The basic is simple, it's just like in PC, you want performance, sacrifice the looks, you want nice screen, you sacrifice speed. Well, everybody know our X8 is not so fast there, that's i wanted to know whether you guys like performance or graphic quality?

Just answer the poll above. Thanks :D

Regards,

aldee_s
[XPERIA X8 General] aldee_s:
Thanks for the voter :D
[XPERIA X8 General] bbeanss:
Many people appreciate a ROM that is fast, but also visually appealing, it's a very hard mix to get right, i myself am very minimalistic with my phone, anything unnecessary is uninstalled from my phone, i.e. maps, sound recorder etc. i never have games installed on my phone.

Beans.
[XPERIA X8 General] xcal_tau:
for me,performance is on the first place.

but it'ill be better that we can set it up on the phone.

like a configuration menu to set between appereance and performance.

so we can choose it by our demand. ;)
[XPERIA X8 General] nigi2010:
Fast.
[XPERIA X8 General] ithunter:
i need GDX with some improvement

i dont need more features, just need V10 all feature with fine work and smooth.. thths all
[XPERIA X8 General] aldee_s:
@beans

yes, its very hard, and im here trying to find the best setting, and maybe i could release rom with different configuration, but maximizing performance while retains good graphic is pretty hard. :D

@xcal

yeah, that is very confienient, but currently if you want it like that, you can use dithering feature, but the graphic wouldn't be as good as if we use maximum graphic configuration when we build the rom

@nigi

thanks :D

@ithunter

well, you can ask doixanh for it. i think doixanh rom is good enough, i score 409 in Quadrant (3D Test). while my built ROM is 403, not so far i guess, and my rom is using quality setting.

EDIT= oops, sorry, it seems my rom is configured with performance setting
[XPERIA X8 General] chepischo ti:
i like fast ROM :D
[XPERIA X8 General] azranashraf:
i prefer fast rom, as customizing can be done by myself
[XPERIA X8 General] aldee_s:
no, the graphic quality that i mean is the color that is displayed on the screen, currently, the ROMs out there is only using 16 bit color, even though our phone is capable showing 24 bit color.
[XPERIA X8 General] doixanh:
I don't think that our phone display is capable of 24bpp. Look at surface flinger and its display hardware component. They use color depth information from the kernel's MSM framebuffer driver, not fix at 16bpp.

I think X8 screen is able to deal with 16bpp only.
[XPERIA X8 General] aldee_s:
really? but the datasheet that i found, X8 is using 16.7 million color display? isn't that 24/32 bpp?

EDIT= is there any way i can test colour banding in Eclair? well, in gingerbread its very easy, just look into Theme Chooser, and if we didn't use dithering, the colour banding is obvious.

EDIT2= dx, i just build the ROM with BOARD_NO_RGBX_8888 and that 16BPPSurface is disabled (commented), and i saw difference in color showed in my screen, really, even though i have partial colour blind, i still can find the difference.

EDIT3= the scrolling seems smoother, well the ROMs i use so far if the background color when you scroll is black, the text will become blurry when i scroll it, but now the blur is reasonable. or maybe its just my phone?

EDIT4= ah men, it makes the screen-off animation really slow, do you know what caused it? does using 32BPP is really have that much impact?
[XPERIA X8 General] Spevky:
Ginger Dx is balanced... Its fast and it looks nice with sense 3.
[XPERIA X8 General] sevoir:
Im prefer FAST Roms :-)
[XPERIA X8 General] orangzeb:
it may start another war here but stock rom is by far the best as long as speed and appearence concerned for x8..
[XPERIA X8 General] aldee_s:
what do you mean by war?

the new stock ROM (2.1.1.A.0.6 or 2.1.1.C.0.0) sucks at 3D, even though the 2D score is better, its still very inconvinient to play HD games on those stock ROM. Also, the stock ROM doesn't have Electron Beam (Screen on/off) animation. I think some people like Gingerbread because of that feature, even dx likes it (stated in froyobread thread) :D
[XPERIA X8 General] aldee_s:
it seems my eyes is the problem, but there is a performance drop when i try to use 32 bpp.
[XPERIA X8 General] ahmadsamhann:
fast. btw r u building CM7(Gingerbread)?
[XPERIA X8 General] zephiel:
Fast ROM.
[XPERIA X8 General] doixanh:
There is a BIG performance drop when you use 32bpp over 16bpp. My eyes easily catch the fps difference. Your eyes are not having problem :D
[XPERIA X8 General] pwraggcan:
I prefer a really nice looking rom that performs really slowly.

Sent from my Motorola Startac running Atari 2600 software!
[XPERIA X8 General] aldee_s:
@HaN

well, yes im building CM7.1.0, i don't want to build froyo, there's no reason to it, no bugs there for me :D

@doixanh

no, what i mean is the color difference, i think my eyes is the problem, seems there's no difference after i flash back to the "fast" one.

of course i can see the fps difference, and if you haven't see how the screen-off animation is, its really ugly. haha.

@pwragg

are you sure man?
[XPERIA X8 General] bbeanss:
I think the main goal is to acheive a fast ROM, if you make a fast ROM that maybe isnt visually appealing, people can still change the ROM to their own preferences i.e. My minimalistic approach or making it very visually appealing, however if you make a ROM that looks nice but works very slowly all you would end up with is alot of people complaining and very few actually appreciating you work

Regards

Beans
[XPERIA X8 General] aldee_s:
Well, after some experiments, it seems that if we want a nice graphic quality, the cost to performance drop is very high, but the difference in graphic quality is so small, so i think i will try to make a ROM that is made to be used for gaming, etc.

Oh yeah, i don't really need appreciation though, because this is FreeXperia team's works, and i get many help from doixanh, i just finding the most fine settings :D

im not dev yet, i just go into college this year, and i study computer science, so i will learn a lot of programming there, maybe good enough so i can be a dev later :p (i Hope :D) this android project is really interesting, thats why i sell my Dual-Core Desktop PC for a 600 MHz CPU-powered device :D

Findings...

Hi all, these were my findings/bugs after having a test with aldee_s developments :)

1. First boot very slow, took around 5 mins

2. music player very buggy, music browsing browsing slow, music glitches when browsing, lots of fc for about 30 mins, then worked perfectly afterwards (probably just updating the library)

3. max available ram i could get 73mb

4. both screen on and off animations work & lock/unlock sounds

5. scrolling very laggy at times during first bootup, but after second boot, scrolling was very smooth

6. DSP Manager very buggy, distorts music

7. applications removed from system/app = voice dialer, spare parts, rom manager, quicksearchbox, protips, magicsmokewallpapers, FM, email, DSPmanager, development, deskclock

8. lense lockscreen slider very low down on the screen, lockscreen layout when playing music needs re ordering

9. screenshots are upside down? i took 11 screenshots and all of them were upside down

10. times battery pulled due to full system crash = 1

11. second boot incredibly fast, took 15seconds or less, max ram after second boot

87mb

:D

12. speakers too loud, distortion when music/ringtone played at full volume

13. no android market

14. good for battery drain, 13% with heavy usage in about an hour

Total Usage = 1hr 4mins

This is an amazing ROM, although it is still in the early stages everything besides the above works almost perfectly, i can see it becoming something brilliant, well done Aldee_s :)
[XPERIA X8 General] aldee_s:
I'll clarify those bugs :

1. Yes, but i don't think that is much of a problem for now :D

2. Yes, the libaudio is still using FreeXperia's one, it's incomplete, as stated in jerpelea's thread

3. I managed to get it up to 80-90 MB, although its rare. :D

4. Screen on animation works? thats a surprise.

5. Yes i guess its still caching, and don't forget, ADW is the most laggy launcher out there for our X8 :D

6. Yes, DSP Manager is related to libaudio, still incomplete

8. Haven't test it yet, it is caused by the overlay on my source i think, but since i don't use lense lockscreen, i can try to fix that later :D

9. Yeah, that is really making me think hard, haha, i'll try to fix it later, just use shootme for screenshots

10. full system crash? what happened? try to logcat

11. Yeah, i really admired that from this ROM :D

12. Again, its audio problem, haven't touch the audio section yet

13. Yeah, i forgot to give you the link to the latest google apps, its not included in my rom, the same as in FreeXperia

14, that is one thing i can't test right now, since my phone is used to test the ROM that i build. :D

Nope, i done nothing compared to FreeXperia team, All credits goes to them, I could never compare to them :D thank the FreeXperia team, without them, this ROM cannot be possible :D

thanks for you report, mate. it really helps me :D
