[HTC Desire S] MasterDL:
Downloading large file (100MB+) has caused freezes, has anybody had this situation? Happens after about 10MB download.

Had same situation un runny.

This Rom is smoother than runny.

Sent from my HTC Desire S
[HTC Desire S] shrome99:
What type (extension) of file are you downloading? How are you downloading it? Using default browser?
[HTC Desire S] MasterDL:
Download like everyone does, default browser, dolphin and opera all used but same freezes. Download ok with small files.

Don't think file type has anything to do with it just everyday zips etc.
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Don't think its a bug. It works fine for me.
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
Although (I know that I'm repeating myself) this works fine on mine and always has (running on XP)?

Strange :confused: as I'm on new HBOOT and stock kernel.
[HTC Desire S] nbhadusia:
@Proxuser Do you know why Adobe reader force closes when trying to open a file. Also, Whatsapp does the same when opening the settings option? Thanks.
[HTC Desire S] nbhadusia:
Ok, I solved the Adobe reader problem... I converted it from a system app to a user app using titanium backup and it seems fine now, but in still getting FC in whatsapp when going into settings . Ideas anyone ?
[HTC Desire S] shrome99:
Uninstall whatsapp. Remove whatsapp folder from sd card. Re download whatsapp. Worked for me.
[HTC Desire S] proxuser:
Adobereader lib file is missing from lib folder. Easy copy libAdobeReader.so to lib folder to solve problem..
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
Fortunately I rarely use Reader so this isn't problem, are you adding it to the ROM for next release along with GPS fix?
[HTC Desire S] noodles2k:
Flash isn't working for me :\

edit : ok nevermind, a re-install sorted it :D
[HTC Desire S] ghuk:
great rom! only problem is that the network signal is weak compared to virtuous and other ASOP rom. I compared Virtuous 2.37 and this rom. On VU 2.37 I'm getting a 4 bars 3g sginal and sometimes goes up to "H" with 2 bars. But on this rom, I'm only getting 1 bar of 3g and sometimes drops to "G" Gprs signal.
[HTC Desire S] nbhadusia:
Thanks for looking into this Prox. Any idea why Whatsapp keeps FCing when selecting options? It seems to work in other ROMs. Any ideas?
[HTC Desire S] proxuser:
whatsapp i've tried and it works on mine VoidU. i can go to settings.

can you please give me screenshot
[HTC Desire S] nbhadusia:
Ok, I will as soon as I get home from work .. its FCs on the main whatapp page (not in conversation) when I press the button on the left of the home button.
[HTC Desire S] nbhadusia:
If its any use..the message says... The application WhatsApp(process.com.whatsapp) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.

Anyone here experiencing the same problem?
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
Don't get this myself ?

What version of Radio and HBoot do you have?
[HTC Desire S] nbhadusia:
Does anybody else have problems with whatsapp, or is it just me?
[HTC Desire S] nbhadusia:
@proxuser
[HTC Desire S] proxuser:
i'll update rom. that should fix some fc problems.
[HTC Desire S] MasterDL:
Have a voice call problem.

Calls are heard fine in phone but my speech on receiver side is all broken up... Like say 1 to 10 continuously and it's all broken up like there's static interference in between.

I'll try a different Rom and see if this problem goes... Just a shame on the most important aspect of a phone.
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
+1 no issues. Same as stock for me.

It's is really easy to fix the Adobe issue..

Delete the app with titanium backup first.

Go to market, and download Adobe reader.

Voila. Working fine now ! (Feel free to include this in the first post proxuser!) ;)

So guys how are you finding battery life on this Rom ?

Any opinions? Id like to see how it compares to mine.

Cheers
[HTC Desire S] nbhadusia:
Thank you! Apart from this small bug, I think this ROM is perfection!
[HTC Desire S] proxuser:
i dont have used this rom long time. because i install many roms in a day as normal users :)

as people said, "hey great rom" i thougt they magnify a little but this is also my daily rom :) today was in 10 hours 10% battery drain with my use. good battery life.. :p :p
[HTC Desire S] nbhadusia:
So will we get an update soon :P
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Yeh man! You do a great job porting roms! I don't get any force closes in other apps. I only see one person having this problem.

This rom is pretty much perfect now!

Though I have some issues with my sd card not being detected with my phone occasionally, but I don't think it is a Rom problem.

Any one have the same issues?
[HTC Desire S] proxuser:
try remove system folders used as cache from sdcard. i mean (Android, data, .ordner and other unneeded folders)
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Little update, I too have whatsapp FC'ing. I never use the app, but gave it a go, and had a FC when I hit the menu button.

But I think it is a app problem, as reading the reviews I can see a lot of other android users (Desire hd etc) have the same problem.

So , is it a ROM specific thing?

Every other app works fine

P.s thanks proxuser for a sd card answer! Will delete the stuff now :)
[HTC Desire S] kalagas:
@proxuser

I just found out from Jahral (he uses your ROM in his Desire S) that my Mixed Theme for Desire DHD it's compatible with your ROM....

So for your convenience and for your user's convenience feel free to add Kalagas Mixed Theme link in your OP...

Obviously you ported capy's ROM for DHD (RCMix3d VoidU) so that's why my Mixed Theme for that ROM is also compatible with your ROM...

So here is the link in any case somebody needs it....

So ok you all know about my Theme...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] DevSun:
Well, I have a Samsung Galaxy S 4G from T-Mobile UNrooted. And I was wondering, do I have to root to wifi tether? I heard that you need to root for a Sprint Samsung Galaxy S, but what about:

Samsung Galaxy S 4G from T-Mobile (Not Rooted)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] josepresas:
wifi tether as in mobile hotspot? nope, you should be able to do it without root ^_^
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] DevSun:
Alright, I'll try it.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeriley1025:
T-mobile can add wireless hotspot to your phone for an extra $15/month. You could also tether with USB cable via pdanet. Those options would not require root.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Lawful123:
A program that you may want to look into is open garden. Its fee in the market. It will turn you're phone into a wireless hotspot. You're phone does need to be rooted in order to use the program
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itstheshawnp:
i have a question i am hoping someone may be able to answer. i am currently without high speed internet at home. so i use my vibrant tethered to my pc (mobileap). i usually do a lot of video streaming to watch my favorite tv shows and movies (no cable either). i usually use firefox with the download helper plugin to download embedded flash files from any site with flash, not just youtube or megavideo.

my problem doing this on my phone uses alot of bandwidth and i get capped very quickly. i have a a few places near me with free wifi, but since my pc is a desktop, i cannot easily take it with me to download videos. unfortunately, i can use my phone to connect to the wifi and stream the videos on my phone, but i have yet to find a way to actually download the embedded flv files to copy to my pc and watch on the big screen with friends.

are there any apps or scripts i can use to do this? if i installed ubuntu, firefox, and the downloadhelper plugin, would it work? or am i asking to much? has anyone ever achieved this?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] m4rk0358:
Just received my phone via FedEx from Wirefly.

I'm going to keep my 32gb sd card currently in my EVO and use it in my new ET4G. I assume when installing the card in the new phone, it will ask me to format it. That being the case, should I first copy over relevant folders/files onto my PC, format the card in the new phone, and then copy over those folders/files back onto the sd card?

Also, other than media files such as music and photos, what else can I continue to use on the new phone? I don't want to mess anything up. Specifically, can I use the LauncherProPlus backup and instantly recreate the homescreen setup on my old phone? Also, can I keep the titanium backup folder and hold onto it until root is achieved?

And a little off topic but anyone else get their phone this late in the day from Wirefly? I called the number to activate the phone (it's an upgrade and not a new line) and the lady stated that I had to wait until Monday to activate it because their activation group is gone for the day. Wtf!?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ravizzle:
It won't ask to format.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] natelw:
I activated mine on the sprint website just entered the DEX number and restarted the phone activated on its own from there.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Hanson68:
Formatting only affects the file system, so any FAT32 formatted card will be recognized in any Android phone without having to reformat. Just pop it in and you're good to go.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] vikramjatt11:
-NO, you will not be asked to format your sd card, so NO, u do not have to move files to/from computer

-YES, you can keep the backup of launcherpro on there, it will replace all your homescreens (except widgets, widgets do not get restored)

-YES, you can keep your titanium backup files on the sdcard, BUT i recommend you install es file explorer, and cut n paste the titanium backup folder from ur sd card to the phones internal memory... (install titanium backup first (it will not work), and a new folder will be automatically created in internal memory labeled titanium backup), just merge the two folders, 1 from sd card, 1 just created in internal memory
[Epic 4G General] || Acer ||:
Kind of off topic, but I'm just curious to know if anyone's tried out the Windows 8 developer preview. I'm trying it right now, and it's honestly not that bad. Some things still need work, but it's definitely something I could get use to.
[Epic 4G General] flimsy888:
I was curious about it too, got a link?

also can i dual boot it with win 7?
[Epic 4G General] 063_XOBX:
Yes, and if you really want to get a feel for it lifehacker has an article showing how to share files between the Windows 7 and 8 partitions.
[Epic 4G General] bertm13:
I havn't tried it yet, trying to get it to work with vmware.

[Epic 4G General] xopher.hunter:
I thew it on my 4 year old cheap laptop and after figuring out how to navigate the start menu I really like how fast it is. Only problem is I can't seem to be able to install .net framework, hence phonemypc won't work (I wanted to test drive metro ui on my epic since its touchscreen optimized) I'm gonna keep it on my laptop until the beta expires but I'm sad to say that I want a windows 8 tablet waaaaay more than even an ice cream tablet.
[Epic 4G General] mooshubob:
Yeah I'm using it on a partition on my brand-new laptop. I really like it actually!

Metro UI is a bit to get used to, but I love using the touchpad multi-touch controls to navigate from panel-mode to the standard desktop, bootup is much faster, and I can share files fine between my regular Win7 partition and the Windows 8 partition.

@xopher.hunter, I had an issue with .NET 3.5, but it installed fine after a restart. YMMV...

I bought a Touchpad during the fire sale, and have yet to receive it from HP Small Business (have to wait for the last production run), but I wanna put Win8 on it when the ARM build gets out.
[Epic 4G General] A_Flying_Fox:
Im waiting for a windows 8 tablet to come out

I do NOT like the UI for desktops :/

WIndows 7 for my PC, windows 8 for tablet.

fk yeah.

Microsoft killed all of my interest in an android tablet when they revealed the metro ui windows 8. PERFECT TABLET OS (atleast based on what ive seen, it has all the right things.)

---------- Post added at 12:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:25 AM ----------

actually...i just remembered in a previous video they didnt have metro ui on and it looked like windows 7...so i might just give it a shot if i can take the skin off..

Also, what's phonemypc? Remote desktop thing for the epic im guessing?
[Epic 4G General] jdillard343434:
Lol you mean android prpo lol you dont get win took the source code rewrote it pstent it and you would fund that lol
[Epic 4G General] A_Flying_Fox:
wut

10char
[Epic 4G General] xopher.hunter:
Its this 10 dollar app in the market, yes it is a remote desktop client but very well done and very simple to set up. Its a freaking life saver if you forget something on your computer.

I still haven't been able to install .net 3.5.1, I even dl'd the standalone but it still wanted to use microsoft update to install, and I rebooted it too. Oh well this is why I put this on my old ass laptop. Runs like a champ though only on 1.86ghz and 1.5gb of ram it seems ready for tablets alredy.
[Epic 4G General] ugothakd:
I personally am hating the metro ui...its to hard to navigate. It's too big of a step. To me, its clunky. People were afraid of vista because of the glossy difference from xp, this is like 100x worse.
[Epic 4G General] || Acer ||:
I find it too bland. (still wonder if I can change the green background to another color...)

Idk, I agree it's too tablet-like, but I like how everything is together.

Definitely doesn't make sense for a computer though.

I feel like we're going backwards a bit since we're basing computer UI off of mobile UIs which are meant to be more compact.

Even in OS X Lion, they had the "Launchpad" feature where it looked exactly like you were on an iPad.

Why do companies think people like this?
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Idk. Maybe because they think it looks better than just a plain list, but now they're more interested in eye candy than functionality. Why can't we have both.

On the other topic, I would like to try windows 8, but it's not really useful for me since I have a 1024x600 netbook, so Metro Apps don't work. I've tried the hack that makes resolution higher on Windows 7, but it looks horrible with that.
[Epic 4G General] R3537L1F3:
my question is the lifehacker site says you need to burn a dvd or use a thumbdrive, can I also use a SD card? (don't want to waste a DVD and have no RWs at the moment)

Also will doing this erase everything on Win 7? I dual booted Ubuntu once and it didn't but LifeHacker says something about formmating the drive
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Will not erase everything as long as you boot to dvd or usb (I don't think SD cards are bootable). You don't need to format, you need to partition (which is like grouping your hard drive, with one group for windows 7 and one for windows 8)
[Epic 4G General] R3537L1F3:
Thanks. lucky me I found a dvd-rw
[Epic 4G General] readingkeeper:
But you never actually have to use Launchpad, and its quite nice to find an app quickly without spotlight.

[Epic 4G General] xopher.hunter:
WOW MICROSOFT WOW. so apparently the windows 8 on arm devices was largely overrated, ONLY METRO APPS WILL RUN ON ARM DEVICES.

[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
I dont think thats true. I dont think they can run Windows 7 apps, but I think they can run any app built for 8 or just windows for arm in general.
[Epic 4G General] || Acer ||:
True, but I have my trackpad customized with a bunch of additional gestures, so if I just tap the top left corner of my trackpad, it shows spotlight. :)

Maybe because its emulating windows?

I was gonna install windows 7 to take advantage of the i5 in my uncles mbp but I might as well use this as an opputunity to test out windows 8 lol

I just suck getting around OSX :/ its so confusing!! But what's funny is my uncle can navigate it no problem but throw him on a pc and he might as well be a monkey.

Seems to me like Windows 8 is focusing more on tablets than anything and other than some benchmark speeds, I dont see a reason why I should switch to it from Windows 7.
[Epic 4G General] rpruey3:
Windows 8 with the metro ui on a full laptop or desktop without touch is useless to me.... The only thing it may be good for is peeps who have a hard time using a computer.

Been using win8 for a little while now dual booted on my laptop with windows 7. I tried to use the ui for about three days and could not take it any longer. I edited the reg to turn it off permently.

My windows 7 boots in about 20 sec on a ocz ssd and win8 is about 16 sec but I really haven't put anything on win8 yet so that might change. Oh and that is booted to a usable desktop. All in all works good for a prerelease. Much will probally change before the beta though. A lot of programs I have will not run on it but work fine on win7. Something has change with hardware graphics acceleration and programs for editing don't play well with it.

Looks good for use on a tablet but imo metro ui on for tab and off for full desktop
[Epic 4G General] || Acer ||:
Agreed. It's not even that good of an eye pleaser (maybe for like 10 minutes your like "woahhh" and then you never use it again).
[Epic 4G General] stud_muffler:
I'm not Mac fan. It's Windows Vista Laptop with "Touch" screen.

As I said I tried to install it in the Oracle VirtualBox, but unsuccessful. It crashes after "Windows Developer Preview" sign shows up.

:cool:
[Epic 4G General] xopher.hunter:
I think its a hell of a lot faster on my 4 year old laptop with a celeron m 540 than windows 7 ever was on it. I disabled the metro ui though its pretty useless to anything non touch. I like the new drag from the left approach its pretty intuituve imo.

Try going to Menu > Settings > Keyboard & Languages and set your language and country to match what you want it to be. If your country's not supported, you can use an app like More Locale 2 to set it the way you want it.

hope this helps.

Not sure either, but most custom keyboards allow you to edit how loud the sounds are.
