[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Croak:
As a former Xoom owner, one of the things I really hated (besides the fact that it was a brick) was the goofy "retro-tech" look of the UI, the colours, the fonts, the whole nine yards. It was gag-worthy. I was tickled pink to see much of that go away, and ADW EX quashed the remnants that were attached to Launcher.

Can't speak for the keyboard, since I use Thumb KB, which vibrates just fine.

I was also happy to see the noticeable performance boost, especially the elimination of the browser typing lag.

As for "bloatware", you got a few megabytes, not gigs, all of it easy enough to remove or disable, and some of it useful (sans all the Hub crap).

Finally, I'm still getting great battery life out of the Tab, pretty sure I (and others) would have noticed battery life dropping by half.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] TECK:
Thanks for sharing your experience and honestly, I'm glad that you like TouchWiz.

I wish I could say the same, but I cannot stand it. :)

Listening to what you say about battery, I had the tablet discharged in less than 6 hours on regular usage with TouchWiz. Once I got back to vanilla I can top easy 10hrs with the same usage. I doubt we are talking few megs only... PhantomHacker removed over 40mb or bloatware in his TW Starburst ROM, while still keeping most of the apps... The way I see is: if the update was 100mb in a tarball format, the contents expanded were easily 200mb (of useless software for me). :)

If you can get the files from the Xoom you could take the Launcher.apk out from system/app and put it on a device with a DPI around 160 and it could work.

How exactly is this done with a rooted DINC2, running Skyraider Zeus?

Is there anything important relating to root on the card, or can I just pop in a different one and be okay?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] oxlong27:
u can just pop in a different one and be fine. u may have to format it first. format as fat 32
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] siskiou:
Thanks!

So, there is nothing on the old sd that is needed for the root or the installed apps, as long as I didn't move anything to sd?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] oxlong27:
that is correct. you have nothing to worry abour
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] knipp21:
"Root" in Android terms is referring to the root file of the phones internal storage
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] oxlong27:
yes he's right. to elaborate a little more, when some one says put it on the root of your sd card that just means you put it straight to your card not in any other folders

Thread I think this leaves me no choice but to send in my defective phone to samsung...

I believe its mentioned in the post above, but my phone only gets to the AT&T screen...

Has anyone ever had SAMSUNG ( not AT&T, but I would like to hear about AT&T as well) Refuse or Bill a person for a warranty repair? I mean they cant do it out of suspicion and if there is NO operating system on there, there would then be no way to " void" my warranty... And again I am not cheating the system or abusing anything, and can they legally out of the blue bill you after service is performed?... I was flashing OVER stock with STOCK because my phone had been experiencing random turn offs NOT COLD ( temp) related.. so I know there was a problem and last month samsung fixed a separate non related button pressing issue... and again to repeat myself, I'm not an idiot that bricked a phone.... I have been modifying this and other droids for over 9 months, so i know what I'm doing.

So I'm just honestly trying to figure out what to do and any input is appreciated.

I want to ask if anybody can send me.the link where to buy Anker battery for sensation. I have read the forums and they said its not good to buy it on eBay that I might get the fake ones.

Amazon. Definitely Amazon. Got 2 1900mah batteries plus travel charger for 30USD. 3 charge cycles in and I'm getting an extra 1.5 hours of screen time!
[HTC Sensation] xnifex:
I've ordered all my anker batteries from this seller on ebay:

[HTC Sensation] webmasteryoda:
What do you mean by 1.5 hours of screen time? Screen switched on all the time or regular or power usage?
[HTC Sensation] xnifex:
I think he means when you go to battery stats & look at display usage
[HTC Sensation] swellthekitty:
Yeah, I meant active phone use at 50% brightness.
[HTC Sensation] jhobert:
So basically Anker battery last 1 1/2 hrs more than the stock battery?
[HTC Sensation] swellthekitty:
That's just my experience thus far and I've only been through 3 charge cycles so there's room for deviation. The anker is 1900 mah, which is just about 25% more than stock. If this was a perfect world that should equate to 25% longer battery life, but real world is always a little different.
[HTC Sensation] mikeydee81:
got 2 ankers with the wall charger/cradle for 28 bucks on amazon. Its rated at 1900 which is a big increase over stock.....the actual increase in life doesnt match that increase but they do last longer...so 28 bucks for 2 of em with a charger is still a great deal. Think you can pick up one for like 14 bucks

[HTC Sensation] yajinni:
I decided to put this in the developer forum because i really feel like this is a problem with the roms/tweaks and needs to be looked into.

If the moderators thing otherwise i am sorry then.

I have been getting complaints with friends over the fact that i come in muffed. When i plug in the headphones that came with the phone to talk they say there is a big increase in clarity. They say when i am muffled they really need to focus to understand what i am saying. I decided to try a few different roms and surprisingly the quality has been different. I have used the same radio in every rom test as follows:

Radio : 10.56.9035.00P_10.14.9035.01_M (This should be the newest TMO OTA radio)

Roms:

Android Revolution HD 3.0.1 (Initial Rom i had. Very Muffled. No dual core patch.)

Android Revolution HD 3.0.3 (Upgraded to this one wondering if it will be fixed. Same muffledness. Had dual core patch)

InsertCoin Sense Android 2.3.4 Stable 2.3.0 (Medium Amount of muffleness)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1198684

http://insertcoinrom.blogspot.com/search/label/pyramid

In all cases the headphones preformed the same amount. They were pretty clear and really helped the muffleness except in the case of insertcoin. The headphones also seemed to have a slight amount of muffleness to them, the difference between headphones and mic was slight.

I have seen other posts about this issue but no clear explaination or dirrection in trying to fix them. I hope this jump starts stuff.

It seems the more modified roms are the ones experiencing the issue... but obviously this isnt the most comprehensive testing.

I did these test over the course of 3 hours with my brother. He stayed in his room in the house and i stepped outside on the sidewalk in the same place every time. Wifi calling was NOT used.

i tried ARHD and IC2.3.0 - no muffled voice from my end. in fact, it was crystal clear. IMO if you've plugged in your earpiece and it sounds ok on the other end, then there's a high chance its the set's microphone thats faulty.

i suggest switching back to stock rom (S-on etc) and see how it goes. if its still muffled, its time to go for warranty
[HTC Sensation] the_scotsman:
Have moved this to the General forum (for the time being at least).

You'll need to find out if other Sensation users have the same problem. I haven't had anyone tell me they have trouble hearing me with any custom ROMs.
[HTC Sensation] yajinni:
Well i have tried the stock roms and its been reported to sound alot better.

It would be nice if we had that multiboot thing going on our phones lol

And i didnt try S-On again because i heard it runs the risk of bricking....
[HTC Sensation] xsnipuhx:
I have the same problem except if I was to call someone, my voice to them would sound like garbage. Obviously its noticeable as well cause they will tell me they can't hear me and it sounds like crap.

Roms that have this:

Android Revolution

Senseless

Roms that don't:

Virtuous(currently on)
[HTC Sensation] awesam:
i had those "garbage" sounds on almost every phone i owned accept for the Nokia 5210 and below :p Its telco problem not the phone.

phones with garbage sound (that i have owned) : BB9800, iPhone2/3/4, Desire, E72

@yajinni - have you tried switching phone with your brother ? let him use the "muffled" phone instead. it 'could' be the way you hold it :D
[HTC Sensation] yajinni:
Its worth a try i guess but if it does do that its retarded. I use android because i hate apple but i get the same issues as them? lol

Will test with more roms and will try Virtuous when i get the chance. Are you using 1.3?

Hi, I'm trying to get android on my phone. I was following both a how-to posted on a thread and a video posted on youtube. I followed the directions to a T and When I finished installing Magldr, I scrolled down to #5, USB Flasher, and when I hit the Call button, nothing happened. The center button (windows checkers) returns me to the top of the menu, and the red end button still works fine when I power up the phone. Prior to flashing this, the Call button also worked fine.

I can't re-flash it or do anything because my computer doesn't see the USB connection when I plug it in.

I'm very worried I bricked my new hd2 trying to install android.

It has SLP 2.08 HSPL installed.

When I do a hard reset (volume keys plus end key) it resets, reboots, pink flash screen appears and then it loads the black magldr v.13 screen.

I tried reinstalling WMDC but it didn't do anything. I'm worried because I have magldr but I can't actually navigate through it, I'm stuck on the root menu screen unable to select anything.

From what I understand, I have to go to option 5, USB FLASHER and when I select it, it will allow my computer to recongize my phone again to flash it. I can't click option 5 though in my phone though since my select key doesn't do anything.

EDIT: I found out if I go to the Tri-Colored Bootscreen, my computer reconizes the USB connection again. I reinstalled Magldr hoping it was a software problem and it didn't fix it, my green call button key still doesn't work when I try to select #5.

Pull the battery, reinsert the battery, then;

Hold the (Red )phone button and the "Down volume" at the same time. This will put you in a recovery mode where you can start over.

You will need; Hard SPL, a radio, MGLDR, and Clockworkmod recovery.

You should see this;

Think it very much depends on your phone and version of android: my HTC lets me hide sim contacts by going to 'people' hitting the menu button and selecting 'view' and deselecting SIM contacts.

but I think that's a HTC thing. Always handy if you list phone and OS version when asking questions as it makes things much easier to answer :)
