[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
uc/uv means underclock and undervolt for the processor. The theory is to use less power while still maintaining a usable tab. Normally, we would use an app like Set Cpu to adjust a lot of settings once you are rooted and custom Rom/Kernel. Note that you'll have to flash a kernel to get OC in taboonay 2.0

I ran richard trips kernel for a couple of days, until I lost 3g in my 501 and it wouldn't recognize my Sim. Flashed Thors 3.2 and seems to run quite well now.

Not sure why you want to run an OTA of 3.2???? You already have it in Taboonay. Besides, you'll muck up your os more than likely if you try to run it. But maybe not ;)

As with the drama, I could really care less. Seems like mud slinging between 2 dev's, and the forum members are fueling the fire :mad:. Don't know who started what, but it revolves around somebody altering somebody elses product, then passing it off as their own. Something to that effect.

As far as I'm concerned, android is open source. Morally, somebody broke a taboo. But the dev's involved are both great dev's and don't get enough credit for what they do for us people.
[Acer Iconia A500] bitterevp:
ive got set cpu. but ive left the voltage settings alone. those settings seem like they could do some damage, and i havent done the research yet. how would i want to alter the settings to make my a500 respond more quickly when i wake it up by pressing the power button momentarily? im running it at 1.4. and the voltage is on factory settings. should these settings correspond? like i should supply more power if i want things to run well at higher cpu usage?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ekusuperia:
I am having an 8GB class 10 Toshiba MicroSDHC with technical reading speed indicated at up to 25mb/s and writing speed up to 20mb/s but I usually can only get slightly more than half of its full speed capability when running a benchmark:confused: Is it because I did not perform an initial format for the card or the Play does not support such hi-speed transaction?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] narflynn619:
It has been proven that the Xperia PLAY and probably other phones as well have problems with Class 10 cards. The problem with Class 10 cards is that, while they have super high speed writing capabilities, there goes a trouble with reading speeds. It has been proven in games in which during gameplay, the games that were tested lagged to the point of unplayability while they are trying to read game data (or SD files, more commonly) from the card.

Users here mostly recommend Class 2 and 4 regardless of the capacity.

PS: I can live with Class 2 microSDHC, so why can't you? ;)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ekusuperia:
Well, I was attracted by producer's advertisement of their so-called fastest microsdhc in the market and did not know the fact that my PLAY does not handle such speed.

Since I already bought it, do you know if there is any solution now to overcome this problem and utilize the full capability of the card' speed?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] narflynn619:
honestly, i don't know. first things first when buying new hardware, read and read and read and read and read and read a lot of reviews until you are satisfied. never read company claims because they are just marketing strategies, ALL LIES, rather, read user opinions.

since you bought it already, all i can think of for it to not be wasted is to just buy a card reader for it and use it as a flash memory stick for your laptop or desktop instead. i mean use it like a regular USB flash drive. that's just my opinion though. you really can't stick a Class 10 card on the XPlay. all hell will break loose.

start looking for class 2 or 4 instead.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ekusuperia:
So sad...I thought I could somehow improve my PLAY performance. Anyway, I think I will use it for my Digital Camera instead and start looking for the class 4 one as your advise.:(
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rogue Leader:
Class 10 cards are KILLER in a digital Camera. I use one in my Canon Rebel T1i and continuous shooting works so much better and faster with a Class 10 card. Also much smoother video recording if you record in HD.

BTW the best card for this device is the Sandisk 32GB Class 4 card. Buy from a reputable seller as fakes are out there...
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ozzmanj1:
I am currently using a Sandisc 32gb Class 4 card and there are slight lags on Modern COmbat 2, my old card was a class 6 16gb card. I saw better performance on the class 6. I am aware of the class 10 issues. My question is I am currently using SD card speed increase software to cahgne the Android cache size from 128kb to 4mb, is this software make a difference? Just curious to get peoples input.

https://market.android.com/search?q=sd+card+speed+booster&so=1&c=apps
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] narflynn619:
i'd stick to class 2 if i were you, it's slow when writing (but that's already fast for me), but it's fast when reading.. at least no lags when something operates within the card..

and oh, is it true that SanDisk get their cards from random unbranded producers then label them with "SanDisk"? If so, then I won't trust this brand anymore..

what is the best brand then? they say it's only between SanDisk, Kingston, and Transcend. But my sister had problems with Kingston USB Flash drives where they periodically corrupt files and have slow writing/reading speeds and that gives me a negative feedback on the whole company. as for Transcend, i think it's too cheap that the quality might be substandard.

I'm still using the stock card that came with my Play (i don't know but it doesn't have a brand) and it's doing its job pretty well. i'm considering an upgrade soon.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ekusuperia:
It is a great information indeed. I am more confident for my next choice of card now.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blagus:
Problem with high class SDHC cards is that they're good at big files, but suck at small files like game data files on phones.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] captain67:
Class 4&6 are the most versatile for all the various things you might do with the phone.

Also, I've always found SanDisk to be the most reliable.

[EVO Shift 4G General] jesusice:
Awesome! I like how Sprint's still quietly sneaking out the 4G. We just got 4G in select parts of Des Moines within the last couple months :) But no word from Sprint and most of the Sprint customers I meet tell me I'm full of it when I say we got 4G here, lol.

ALL HAIL OTAKING71, THE RAPER OF HBOOT!!!
[EVO Shift 4G General] SpoonThief:
Any word on how far the signal goes outside of Waterloo (Cedar Falls?)
[EVO Shift 4G General] flu13:
We supposedly have a 4g tower. You must have to go stand at the base of it to get a signal, though.
[EVO Shift 4G General] travanx:
3g is pretty bad. But where I live in downtown los angeles. The 4g is really all over the place depending on how tall the building you are next to is. Inside my loft its very all over the place. No biggie. Just was hoping it would be a bit more stable in certain areas.
[EVO Shift 4G General] sarinhighwind:
I have yet to pick up 4g with my shift. Even when in Nashville, Tn.

Nor the town I work in where there are 4g towers as well.

Stood right next to a VZW guy last night and he was telling me about his charge, he was standing there on 4g. I was sad. =*(

I'm not having much issues with 3g speeds, but I was running stock Vanilla.

I just got around to rooting last night.

Got MikShifted loaded up for now, see if I like it.

Looks like i'ma have to re-flash already, to many apps I wont use. =*(
[EVO Shift 4G General] flu13:
Why do you have to reflash? Why not just remove the stuff you don't want?
[EVO Shift 4G General] linuxman008:
You know you can remove those right? Its not like stock, if you use something like titanium to remove them, then they are gone, not back at reboot.
[EVO Shift 4G General] MrTrip:
The signal is limited to the downtown area. Cedar Falls does not get any service from the 4G, and it cuts off right at the Fletcher exit on 218. Also it doesn't go past 18th Street Bridge and barely crosses Washington St to the west side. Crossroads has VERY faint 4G.

I have 1 solid bar in my house on the west side and its awesome. I have full signal on 218 (I assume the tower is near Tech Works).
[Motorola Droid Bionic] rafarataneneces:
I can change (for free) my device for either the HTC Thunderbolt or Samsung Charge

Both have 1GB of RAM

My question is, with 512 of RAM (which sucks), I was able to survive with the Tmobile G2X for 6 months

Now, I tested the quadrant score and it's 1700

With a single core the result is 1300

So the dual core devices (as least according to Quadrant) are around 30% faster

Anyway, if I stay on Verizon, which device would be a better option and why?

Maybe dual core is cool but it's not enough

do you guys think I should switch to Sprint in order to have the Samsung Galaxy S II?

I DO NOT consider Sprint, AT&T or T-Mobile to have 4G yet.

I have never seen speeds of >=14000 kbps like Verizon 4G LTE

So I consider those carriers 3.5 G or something like that

I like the Samsung Galaxy S II but that device will NOT be able to reach speeds of 14 000 kbps like the Samsung Charge on Verizon

So I might get 30% more CPU power but the internet speed is 3 times slower

So, in simple words, will you either have internet speed or 30% more CPU power?

And the most important question, is dual core so important that it's worth it to have a slower internet connection as long as I have the dual core?

I am thinking switching to Sprint, but I tested the HTC Thunderbolt today and it looked alright

Anything but the Bionic, it sucks, screen sucks
[Motorola Droid Bionic] jbdan:
Would be prudent to ask these questions to owners of those devices.

The bionic is a killer phone and I love the screen
[Motorola Droid Bionic] open1your1eyes0:
Coming fresh from a ThunderBolt let me redirect you to my review: Link
[Motorola Droid Bionic] octomobiki:
uhm - I thought that the Charge has 512 mb and the thunderbolt has 768?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Snow02:
You would be correct.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] octomobiki:
why is OP quoting those phones as having 1GB ram then...heh...

Actually, I just went through this guys history, he simply takes every chance possible to bash the screen and this "horrible" phone he's had for 4 days of use. I can't tell if this guy works for another carrier or is just trolling the Bionic board....
[Motorola Droid Bionic] cappiez:
I only had the Charge for 12 days before I turned it in. The only thing I miss about it are the gorgeous blacks. Other than the screen, I never saw anything spectacular about the phone that set it apart from my Incredible and now my Bionic.

If you're wanting to change phones because of the Bionic's display, I suggest the Charge, but that's simply because of all the battery woes that you hear about the Thunderbolt.

If you have another problem that you want to switch for, let me know and Ill do my best to let you know what it was like on the Charge.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] rafarataneneces:
hahaha

I love your final opinion

Overall Opinion

Still testing prior to completing this section

Confused?

The dual core, do you see a BIG difference?

Because my dual core is SLOW, but I have 512 MB of RAM with my G2X, so I think RAM is more important in this case, then CPU

It would be super cool to have a good phone with Dual Core, 1GB of RAM, 4G LTE (Verizon) and super nice screen

so the HTC Thunderbolt is all of that except the dual core (from my own experiment today I'd say that gives a 30% boost or so)

---------- Post added at 02:07 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:03 AM ----------

Well I went to Verizon today and I installed Task XP and Advanced Task Cleaner Pro

I killed all the apps and had around 400MB of free ram, which is all I need

anything around 400-500 I would say produces a pretty good lag-free device

Also, just for the records, I have a Samsung Tab 10.1, so if I want to browse websites, I will use my tablet

I want my phone basically to tether, use it as a GPS, and check email, and check websites every now and then

if it doesn't performs awesome while watching a flash video or watching a MP4 or MKV movie I don't care too much

Even if Netflix sucks I don't care, again, the Samsung Tab 10.1 is for that

Basically I switched from Tmobile because at Best Buy, Frys, WalMart... I would have zero connection

I would really like to use the phone to make Skype phone calls as well
[Motorola Droid Bionic] cappiez:
Well, obviously basically any phone will do most of you stated.

The MP4/MKV is pretty decent on the Charge. Only problem I experienced was when I was watching an Assassin's Creed video, about 8 minutes in, the video would stutter in action. Which I wasn't really happy with.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] idefiler6:
Weren't you returning it because of the screen? Now you don't even need it for videos...

Besides the ram being better than those two devices, the 4g radio is much faster, so if the primary use is tethering....the best choice is clear. Just keep the bionic.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] psufan5:
I dont know how you guys deal with this screen. Its the biggest piece of crap I have ever seen. I feel like it could be used to play checkers :(
[Motorola Droid Bionic] idefiler6:
I don't know what you kids use this device for where you need a pristine screen. I usually keep the porn for the full sized computer.

Aside from the meh battery life, I really like this phone.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] brett014:
This clearly does not belong in the Droid Bionic forum, can we get it closed/deleted? Also can we get this guy to stop posting how much he hates the Bionic? He has started at least different 4 posts about how he is getting a different phone and how bad the Bionic sucks. His opinion is fine, just tired of looking at 4 different posts saying the same thing.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] idefiler6:
Compared to the other 4g phones...
[Motorola Droid Bionic] borgey:
Maybe you should wait for the Vigor. That will be dual core, 4G LTE and 1 GB of RAM. It's coming out in a few weeks anyway.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] acPIZZA:
Exactly. Turn off lte if you're at work or driving around a lot and the battery will last forever.

And yes, it would be great to have these complaint threads consolidated or removed.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] rafarataneneces:
Yeah but I bought the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 to watch videos

So at the moment that wouldn't be a big problem

Don't worry boss

Today I will be posting at the HTC Thunderbolt forums

Trust me at least 10-15 people returned the device

Not because of me

Because the screen sucks

you can delete all my posts all I wanted to know is if there's any way in which I can fix things, software or something

---------- Post added at 01:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:09 PM ----------

I am going to buy cash an HTC Thunderbot today

Then when the Vigor comes out I will use my discount

As for now that is the best strategy
[Motorola Droid Bionic] brett014:
Out of the millions of people who bought a Bionic, if only 10-15 people returned theirs then that is an excellent ratio. The screen is great, battery life is 3x the Thunderbolts, the speed is AMAZING, the Bionic isn't perfect but with some Roms out it will be.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] creativeevent:
Since this new market i have the same problem! "Your device is not compatible". With lots of apps. At least, the new facebook app is not installable due to this restriction.

Any ideas how to fix that little problem?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Marvlesz:
You have two options:

1- Forget about installing most apps (as most of the apps are incompatible with our "Androided HD2")

2- Remove the new market, and install the old one (v 2.X.X.XX) and use market enabler + edit build.prop to match the device's compatibility.

:)

Thx man, i'll try this tomorrow!!

Where do I download these? I have the new sprint galaxy s2 and it says many things are not compatible. Help!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Marvlesz:
Here is the old market:

https://sites.google.com/site/droidlife35/home/android_market.apk?attredirects=0

install normally, and freeze market updater using Titanium Backup Pro or remove "MarketUpdater.apk" from /system/app/ (after making a backup) then go to settings>app>manage>market>uninstall updates.

And the build.prop is located in your phone in /system/

edit the following lines:

ro.product.model=
ro.product.brand=
ro.product.name=
ro.product.device=
ro.product.board=
ro.product.manufacturer=

to match the ones on the device you want to disguise as.

market enabler can be found in the market (requires root)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Phreznl:
What does the new market use to determine compatibility? It sounds like it used to use SIM + build.prop data, but now uses something else. IMEI maybe?

It looks like the apps just specify which features they use and the market determines if your device supports all those features. Which leads me to think that the market either has some profile for the HD2 or we are being evaluated using some "default" profile for unknown devices. Given this, is it know what features the market thinks the HD2 supports vs. does not support? Is there a way to get Google to update (or create) the profile for the HD2?

Thanks
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Marvlesz:
Yeah I think that's just it. It looks for device's identity(in build.prop), LCD Density and SIM's number. :)

Not having issues with vids Ive taken on the thrill, having issues watching "3D" movies that I downloaded from a website where the vid stays split. I am guessing because they are technically meant for 3D televisions that require glasses.
[LG Thrill 4G] DASM:
Yes, no problems with preloaded vids, but with downloaded have. These vids are SBS, not anaglyph, but Thrill dees not recognize these as a 3D
[LG Thrill 4G] acem77:
I had this same issue. I wasted whole evening converting sample videos thinking it was the format.

You need to activate the option and tell the video player the 3d format.

Any video that plays recoded in sbs(side by side) or tob(top over bottom) will work.

I used total video convert and convert them to 800 X 480 Mp4 x264 files. Leave all other options default.

You have to start the video and put it in 3d mode.

Then "while its playing" hit the menu cap/led button at that point you can select the 3d format.

You have to do it once per video.

Its seems like an odd (almost hidden) way to enable it but it does let you to set each video as needed instead of forcing one global setting.
[LG Thrill 4G] DASM:
Sorry, which button?
[LG Thrill 4G] acem77:
droid menu capacitive button
[LG Thrill 4G] 00mred00:
Thank you....this worked.
[LG Thrill 4G] s0urc3f0ur:
Here are the instructions on how to do this:

jeanlucdavid.com/2011/06/watching-3d-movies-on-lg-optimus-3d/
[LG Thrill 4G] nigerson:
I have the solution!

well, to watch a video in 3d you first need to tap the 3d button on the screen or on the side of the phone after you start the movie. Then you press the options key (the capacitive button looks like box within a box) then press 3d options. You choose the first option toward the left.

If you need help finding movies visit thepiratebay.org

and search "evo3d". Most movies are around 4gb so I recommend buying a kingston 32gb class 4 microsd. They go for around $40.

you can also download or rip 3d blurays and convert them to small Mp4 or AVI files. Notice:When converting movies make sure each one is no bigger than 4gb or it wont play. If they are bigger than 4gb try reducing the quality or split the movie into 2 parts
[LG Thrill 4G] malickie:
Wow talk about hidden way to watch these. Either way Very Very Good to Know. Thanks.
[LG Thrill 4G] DASM:
I know about this button, but it does not appears :( Maybe it is because Waterbeer FW ?
[LG Thrill 4G] fransb:
Ok, the SBS, reversed SBS and Top/Bottom options are obvious, but the 4th option? Is it maybe anaglyph?
[LG Thrill 4G] TylDurden:
4th option is no 3D or native 3D, it just plays video in native format.
