hi mate i think u should try BlockBuster Rom 5.0 with Semaphore Kernel 1.5.0...i think the fastest and most stable rom.....and the big thing it has no battery drain at all....Darkys rom is not a choice now a days......because darky is not developing....its developed by Ficeto.....so in my opinion u should try blockbuster.

I want to flash back to stock rom but I have some question first:

-Do I need to convert filesystem to rfs before flashing stock rom which is rfs?

-Which is the best stock rom: KPE, KPN or KPO?

-Does CSC matter if I don't plan to update using KIES?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] er.davinder:
No you do not need to convert filesystem to rfs, it'll automatically convert to rfs

Personally if i were you i would go with latest stable release like KPO,

CSC don't matter unless don't plan to update through KIES,

I would recommend to use MULTI CSC Mod by redmanner

How do I remove Swype that is bundled with official firmware? I want to use the beta but the already installed one blocks it.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] CallMeVentus:

i am also moving from cyanogen 7.2 to stock

actually do you need a full package ROM if using Odin or can be also be done by single package ROM as many Odin tutorial videos show ... and if you could explain me the difference i would be thank full for your help.:)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] madman:
no need to do anything special...

load cooper.ops file

check one package in odin option

select tar.md5 file

flash

you will get bootloop --> go to recovery and wipe data + cache

DONE
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Jazz Like That:
I too moved from CM to stock.

I flashed xxkph and is running fine.

But when I connected it to kies it is saying that the phone can't be updated.

Does this mean the phone is not completely unrooted?

Should I do something to completely unroot it?

In other thread I got a reply that flashing UK 3 stock ROM will solve the problem. But I wonder if I can flash my Unlocked mobile ( Mobiles bought in India are unlocked only, right? ) with some other carrier ROM.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] ApriliaM3:
Completely erase internal SD

Hi Guys,

At some stage I installed a custom ROM that had Indonesian as the default language.

Even though I restore stock ROM with Odin, this Indonesian language remains as the default.

Also, the phone used to boot with Galaxy Cooper but now it boots as Galaxy Ace.

How to completely get back to original?

Must I format the internal SD?

How is this done?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SnowPluralism:
No, it means that your csc is not set for your region! and since is not set KIES cannot upgrade it, but don't worry, do this:

*#06# ( Note that down )

Now

*#272*(The number you've noted down)#

Choose csc from your region so KIES can uptade (WARNING**** CHANGING CSC WILL DO A FACTORY RESET)

or

Where can I get the csc file that makes kies recognise my mobile?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SnowPluralism:
set csc is simpler then that you dial *#272*(Your IMEI number)#

Now chose the letters from your country!

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] biswatmak:
Why are u taking so much pressure friend

1) Android would automatically convert all your non-rfs partitions into rfs.

2) Which rom you will install is totally upon you. If you want your regional language (which is polish I suppose from your location) you can flash the NEE S5830XWKT7

or If you want good responsiveness and battery I would recommend the latest version S5830DDKQ8.

3) Your CSC file (whatever it is) wont hamper in anything.......only if you are using

ODIN Multiboot to flash.........But if you want to use Kies to update then it would be preferable to use the latest available in your region.

And try the single MD5 file rather than separate files if you are using ODIN.

Hi there, I am a complete Noob when it comes to Android.

M I have a home system where I have, through Network Magic, three Windows based laptops connected and using media files stored on my Desktop.

I can't seem to find the shared files on the TF.

Network magic shows the TF connected and available to see the files, but on the TF in folders, it only gives me the internal folders and My net only shows media files on the TF and gives me the option in settings for a Digital media server, nothing else.

Windows Media Player on the Desktop (vers 12) is set to stream files and share.

Am I missing something? or perhaps and app to alllow me to play media from my hard drive on the desktop to the TF?

thanks in advance
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Warkman:
Well, Interesting. A file Manager programme "File manager HD" HAS seen the home network and let me connect to it! Just trying to run an avi file from the network ATM. It seems to download it to the TF...

Android is so much different to both Windows and Apple....

This will do me fopr now, but what I really wanted to be able to do was stream from my Media source rather than have to d/l each music file and film

[HTC Sensation] ratchetnclank:
I used to like sense. Then i tried Cyanogenmod 6 and never went back until i was forced to with the sensation.

Sense is slow and ugly. I prefer minimalistic.
[HTC Sensation] PdtS:
I'd keep Sense launcher if it let me change basic things, like screens number, or dock shortcuts, or add a gesture or two — anything!

But it's all "pre-tuned" in rock for casual users' bliss, and I don't consider myself one. So I'm on LP, and the moment Pyramid has AOSP I'll lose sight of all these idiotically glossy bars and icons completely.
[HTC Sensation] Hoki62:
Sofar i have stayed with Sense.

Seems alot of work to get NoSense to work. But maybe when i have sometime over i would take a more closer look into it.

But i like the clock from Sense where i can get into the timer and alarm easy.

[HTC Sensation] mrbkkt1:
I know...its the sense-ation but I prefer vanilla Android.

It is a beautiful overlay, but such a resource hog.
[HTC Sensation] xaccers:
I think this is an example of how US carriers trash the phones.

Sense on my UK O2 isn't a resource hog at all, and is fast and smooth.
[HTC Sensation] TheBiles:
Unless you flashed one of the unstable AOSP ROMs, you've never used a ROM without Sense on your Pyramid.
[HTC Sensation] samnada:
Not sure TMO US actually trashed the Sensation. There are some apps added and some removed, but without some acutal evidence it's not clear they modified Sense itself. Sense runs fine on my phone, but I have no use for fancy widgets, animation, or 7 home screens. Supporting all the useless graphics does use more resource than necessary, so in that sense it's a resource hog regardless of how smooth it is. With ADW I can set the phone up just the way I want. It's a shame HTC doesn't allow that level of customization.
[HTC Sensation] alyoder:
I absolutely love sense. I will only lose it for miui. When that happens
[HTC Sensation] alyoder:
I use fancy animations, widgets and have seven full homescreens and I am on tmobile. Sense is smooth and zippy and I experience no lag or stutters.

Resource hog.... Wake me up when there's something I want to do on my phone but can't. Until then the resource hog statement has little value. Just like qudrant benchmarks for judging "performance"

Now people out there may have a situation where they are unable to do something with their phone, and if they removed sense and setup the exact same situation they'd be able to do it. Not hypotheticals. Actual instances tested and verified on both sense and nosense. But that's not what you usually read on the board.

What you usually read on the board are many many parrots with a few owls.
[HTC Sensation] jjc1992:
+1 amazing post!
[HTC Sensation] Matt1408:
Have you ever used a Sense-less phone? I kid you not, my stock Nexus One is faster than my Sensation for most tasks (with web browsing being the only exception.)

By the way, I have no idea why you need 7 homescreens. I'm fine with just 3. I can hide useless apps from the tray with LauncherPro. Speaking of the app tray, the vertical pages on the Sense app tray is the worst thing I've used.

It's just that Sense 3 became much more clunky and bloated than ever before. And it is even less customizable.
[HTC Sensation] Mattcdillon:
i went to senseless extreme, then switched to revolutionHD. i didnt realize how much i used/missed the sense stuff until it was gone. plus the revolution ROM is much faster and less glitchy.
[HTC Sensation] steve austin:
Does not make sense for me to keep Sense

Sense is slow (if you are not rooted). It does have about 5-10 widgets that you can't find anywhere else like the tile photo widget. But that is not a deal sealer. It is also lacking when it comes to resizing widgets so it is of no use to me. The only thing I would keep off sense is the new lock screen. I LOVE THAT THING. However, I don't know how many ROM's are removing Sense but leaving that feature in.
[HTC Sensation] doctorlirio:
Sense is the best android UI i have seen, it might consume more resources than others, but what do you want a dual core for? i don´t play games much in my phone because i have a big screen at home for that, so i prefer to have a RAM hungry UI that looks great and gives me all the options i want and more. That's my opinion, of course, and i'm no expert. :)
[HTC Sensation] nrvnqsrxk:
It does look great. When 2.3.4 came out, I even used it for 2 weeks. But then I discovered that I could do 5x5 rows with LauncherPro Plus, which allowed me to set up my homescreen the way I like it.

Also, 7 panels to sift through gets annoying after a while. I just need 3.

Sense is great for people that just want to use their phone. Great widgets, cool features. The people that ditch it are usually control freaks that want to squeeze every bit of performance from their device :o
[HTC Sensation] xaccers:
I don't get this objection to 7 screens.

I only use 4 and just never go to the blank 3 so can't see why they're a bother to anyone.

If I did use all 7 then chances are I'd just tap the home button a second time and go to the screen I wanted, and tap home again to get straight back to the home screen.

Only time I go to the blank screens is to show off my wallpaper.

Cant stand Sense makes it sooooo slow! And AOSP looks way better!!!
[HTC Sensation] kaesekopf:

at Stock Sense is not so smooth as Cynogemod or Touchwizz on Galaxy S3 but try Mikes Revolution HD 6.72 with on Stock Kernel and flash Ulra Smooth Rosie. It feels very fast/smooth and you have a great Battery life.

And its a Rom without bugs :)

[HTC Sensation] fahad.mq:
I actually love Sense (especially the HTC keyboard), but my biggest dislike is how the stock browser limits the number of open tabs to 7 maximum (in Sense 3.6, not sure about Sense 4.0). The stock ICS browser supports up to 20 tabs if I'm not mistaken.

Also on the Sensation I find the multitasking to be slightly less than non-Sense ROMs, but I think that's mainly because of the Sensation's 768 MB of RAM which isn't a lot in today's age.
[HTC Sensation] Glennfoot:
I've tried some no sense roms, aosp

& aokp, although they did appear to run faster. I did miss sense due to how it all integrates so smoothly. I'd had thoughts of getting a galaxy for my next phone but without sense I don't think I'd keep it long.

I cant believe Ive never posted in here before...weird...

I always wanted to like Sense...its a beautiful UI dont get me wrong. I wanted "real" Sense as I had MySense on MT4G, it was garbage. But its such a resource hog...multitasking??? forget about it lol unless you like to deal with lag. Sure you cant get some of the widgets on AOSP, but some of the ones on the market come pretty damn close and sometimes even function better. Just wish HTC, with their build quality(minus speaker), would come out with a pure AOSP experience:p
[HTC Sensation] DonDizzurp:
the speaker on the glacier was one of the loudest

that was one of the best built phones ive ever used and im really thinking of switching back. i know the sensation is better but it doesnt wow me like the glacier

[HTC Sensation] sesh1997:
It Depends

Honestly, it does depend, gingerbread and lower I would say sense would win but jellybean, theres project butter which makes it so smooth but on the other hand if you have a sense 4 rom such as Viper S Venom, it would be hard! Performance wise, jellybean does win but other aspects like features Sense would win. It comes with beats audio, it has xLoud built in (not all sense 4 roms), the camera is amazing, it has a better interface, etc. The best combination would be like a Jellybean Sense rom, that would be cool, but just comparing Sense 4 to ICS AOSP... SENSE FTW! :D

for me the best set up is using an aosp theme on a sense rom. this keeps the sense apps which imo are more polished than aosp apps.

also use apex launcher instead of sense launcher, and aosp themed status bar.

AOSP stands for Android Open Source Project and is the android released by google. If we are talking about an AOSP rom we mean the rom is from google's source and has not been changed by a manufacturer. ROMs from HTC (e.g. Sense based ROMs) and Samsung etc have been modified by themselves and are therefore not AOSP.
