[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mutil:
if you have an eu-hd2 the phone's internal storage isn't enough, so sd-ext partition is a kind of trick to increase internal storage. this is a partition that is seen by android but not by windows.

you can google youtube for videos about flashing mgldr 1.13. but at my first time i mostly used written sources in xda (i think i referred links of mskip's tutorials)

dont be so afraid, hd2 is a strong machine.

i'll try to look at your questions often. just start your operation;)

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GatorsUF:
I just did two speediest in different areas. First one isn't in the woods or anything but probably a bad spot. Second is right in town about a mile down the road.

1st spot - 390kbps

2nd spot - 1580kbps

Is 1500 about right?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loonatik78:
They are both actually pretty typical of what you'd expect to see on CDMA EV-DO rev. A. Data can drop of sharply based on signal strength.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] POQbum:
Yeah that sounds right, to translate the rates into something more practical they come out as:

1st spot - 48.75 KB/s

2nd spot - 197.5 KB/s

here's one I got a few days ago:

or translated into kbps

2188 kbps

Your rates will depend on the quality of tower, weather conditions and how many users are connected to it. Also your PRL version (make sure it's up to date with *228) and your radio are the other things that affect it per phone.

Well...

I'm currently running

Faux 0.12 OC'd to max on 'ondemand'

Android Revolution HD 3.04

and I only get 2500-2600 on Quadernt benchmarks :(

I've heard of people that get 3000+ D:

How do I increase performance???
[HTC Sensation] idavid_:
Quadrant is ****. That's all

¤Violets are red,

Roses are blue,

Wait, what?

I have no idea what I'm saying,

But you lost the game¤
[HTC Sensation] mrg02d:
Quadrant is also inconsistent. It will piss you off to no end, my friend. Try CF-Bench. I use that to see whether or not any "improvements" are such.

Matt
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
Get a crayon and draw a line.

Get a pencil and write any number you like under it.

As good as quadrant, any day.

Do you want a fast phone, or do you want some imaginary numbers?

Use cf bench and linpack to judge if changes made your phone better or worse.

As far as comparing numbers from one phone to another, forget it.

P.
[HTC Sensation] austendale9:
I've heard linpack is the worst app ever from a lot of people so I don't trust that, at all.
[HTC Sensation] kedlun:
I've heard a lot about CF-Bench but never got around to using it. I definitely know not to use Quadrant but have always heard good things about Antutu (which I normally use). How does CF-Bench compare with Antutu for performance measuring accuracy?
[HTC Sensation] piimp:
I'm not usually a benchmark kinda dude, bt antutu can suck some pistachios, I always get inconsistent results with it, bt if anything ll run cf when I use a diff kernel just to c if any improvements

[HTC Sensation] Xx12thANG3LxX:
Doesnt clock both processors. Use cf bench please. Thats why you are getting low scores

Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e
[HTC Sensation] hlenforcer:
yep, agree on CF bench, but if you really like higher quadrant points, you should try 2 things:

1. run quadrant a minimum of 5 times in a row, will increase your points on the last runs

2. put in class 10 sd card, will increase points a lot in comparison to class 4 stock card ..
[HTC Sensation] Alfhea:
Agreed on running CF Bench, Antu tu isn't bad either.
[HTC Sensation] Alfhea:
Whats the difference in sd class?
[HTC Sensation] undercover:
Some benches test r/w speeds of SD card and they affect bench score.
[Droid Pro General] Khachikyan:
Hello,

Discovered a problem with international SMSs.

I have a lot of international contacts stored in my phone, in international format, starting with + sign. When I try to send an SMS to these numbers, stock SMS application converts the number to the one without + sign and SMS is not going. I installed Handcent SMS application and it works well - no any stupid number modifications.

Does someone faced this problem and knows how to solve it without 3rd party applications?

Thanks.

[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jesusice:
UPDATE: If your kernel has been patched to support call recording then use this app: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.skvalex.callrecorder

(There are many other apps that say they work but in my personal experiance they either don't or require the call to be on speakerphone.)

I know that Tiamat and Toastcfh's stock CM7 kernel both have this enabled. I'm unaware of others.

*OR: Use MIUI (Thanks Rooster85)

Original Question:

Has anyone had any luck recording calls on their Shifts? I know that I can record incoming with Voice but I'd like to record outgoing too. I've read that it's a feature that has to be enabled on the kernel level and I've seen that both the stock CM7 kernel and Tiamat have been updated to allow call recording but still I've tried a half dozen different apps and they say they've recorded the call but I get no audio at all.

Can anyone help? (Please, no discussions on the legality of recording calls) Thanks in advance.

^ Shift Faced
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VICODAN:
I don't know but I've noticed that I get a message of "This call is now being recorded" when I'm on a call for a while.. wtf?
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jesusice:
If you're using Voice you can record inbound calls (not outbound) by pressing 4 during the call. Is it a vocal announcement? If so then that's Voice.

^ Shift Faced
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] one_love_420:
Recording phone calls is illegal I'm most areas. Each party has to be notified if the call is be recorded that is why you hear a message stated this call is being recorded. Only law enforcement can record calls and only then with a proper warrent. Ps and I know the op says no disscussing the legality but I figure it atleasts needs to be pointed out
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jesusice:
Actually the federal laws only call for one party consent. That means as long as I know the call is being recorded it's legal. There are only 11 states that require all party consent:

California

Connecticut

Florida

Illinois

Maryland

Massachusetts

Montana

Nevada

New Hampshire

Pennsylvania

Washington

Law enforcement doesn't need **** to wiretap you. The idea that they need warrants is an antiquated ideal that doesn't address the reality of our post 9/11 world.

I really don't know why people get so freaked out about recording calls. Every other form of communication except in person speech is recorded. Texts, emails, tweets, Facebook, even written letters are all recorded forms of communication.

^ Shift Faced
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] one_love_420:
Its actually 12 states that require, under most circumstances, the consent of all parties to a conversation: California, Connecticut, Florida, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Montana, Nevada, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania and Washington.

Federal Law:

The federal Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968, 18 U.S.C. Sec. 2510 et seq., prohibits the willful interception of telephone communication by means of any electronic, mechanical, or other device without an applicable exemption. There are two principal exceptions:

Federal Exceptions

Consent: In the absence of more restrictive state law, it is permissible to intercept and record a telephone conversation if one or both of the parties to the call consents. Consent means authorization by only one participant in the call; single-party consent is provided for by specific statutory exemption under federal law. 18 U.S.C. Sec. 2511(2)(d).

"Business telephone" exception

The "business telephone" exception, which generally allows monitoring of calls and taping over an extension phone which is both provided to a subscriber in the ordinary course of a telephone company's business and is being used by that subscriber in the ordinary course of its business. This provision generally permits businesses to monitor the conversations of their employees, including personal conversations.

Penalties: The federal statutes provide criminal penalties for unlawful interception of telephone conversations, including up to five years' imprisonment or a maximum of $10,000 in fines. They also allow for civil remedies, by which private parties are entitled to recover actual and punitive damages, together with fees and costs.

Just my 2 cents, sorry for taking your thread to where you didn't want it to go, but just pointing out some info that some might need to know.
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jesusice:
Oh, my bad I was off by one state ;) Otherwise you haven't added any new information than what I already posted. You just translated my English version into Legalise. Seriously though, all of this is just useless annoyance and debate since I STILL CAN'T RECORD MY CALLS!!! Anyone got any useful information?

Sorry to be a douch but this is exactly why I asked NOT to have this discussion. I've seen it repeated a million times. Besides, everyone that resides in any of those 12 states is a jerk and don't want to talk to them on the phone anyways =)

you can use it if you like.

remember that you need to be deodexed & should have CWM recovery to flash this theme.

here's the link....

warning: I don't know if it will work for you, but its working for me. so you can try it.:D

Don't forget to do a backup before flashing!

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EfemaN:
I just transferred to the University of Minnesota,and it seems like T-Mobile has terrible coverage and penetration on campus; my average bars are lower, and my battery life has tanked, with battery stats telling me that the cell standby is taking 35-50%, with anywhere between 5-35% time without signal. I can only guess that the radio is sitting at max power trying to grab signal, but I may be wrong.

I've tried both the 26.08.04.30 radio, and the newest Bell one, both seeing terrible performance. I find myself needing my phone data, so I'd rather not slap on airplane mode or turn off 3G if I can help it. I was even considering tethering whenever I decide to get a laptop.

Anyone have any tips?

Does your school have WiFi pretty much everywhere? My university does, and I am on a newer Even More plan so I was able to get free WiFi calling (does not use minutes). WiFi saves battery especially when using data when compared to cellular data. Just make sure you set the WiFi sleep policy to never in Settings > Wireless > WiFi settings > Menu > Advanced
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EfemaN:
I've been attempting to use that as my solution, but it seems like there are plenty of areas with flaky wifi. I feel like that's going to make the radio work hard to try grabbing a good signal, in addition to Wifi Calling trying to enable if it drops. I'm seeing how it goes.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Reborn627:
I've been pretty disappointed with the majority of the launchers I've downloaded. Not that they are bad, just not the experience that I'm looking for. They all end up looking the same to me. I like to make my phone unique, the reason I really like android, and most launchers have the same format.

I'm currently using Launcher7 because it's different that all the other android launchers I've seen. Granted, it just looks like WP7 but it's at least different than virtually every other android phone out there. I'm rather fond of the vertical scrolling and the tile aspect of the launcher. I can create my own tile icons, again it that customization, and I can scroll through all the tiles I want on one screen rather than flipping home screen to home screen. It also minimizes how often I need to go to the "app drawer" because all of my most used apps are on one "home screen". Just my opinion. Maybe, at some point, I create my own unique launcher. For now I really appreciate all of the hard work everyone has put into the launchers available.
