[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bhu1:
Its not like that exactly but its very true both cm7 and minuit out of the box are amazing infraction I just installed 1.9.16 miui and it has just 7 apps. Installed and it's balzing fast ! But minuit has many problems of its own so I am moving back to Samsung based rom jetpack v5 spark very soon !
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] milro1970:
Thanks for the replies...

-I've tried CM7: it was fast but... it didn't felt home. So I dished it and went back to the samsung related rom's!

-Yes, SGS is prettier than 908 but really it's not so ugly. After all, my post was about speed, not beauty.

-So, if I load alcatel with 100+ apps I will feel the pain you say. We'll see... But if it's true then I will be angry again, very angry... with Google!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] milro1970:
Memory Management

The thing about multitasking is that is related mainly with memory and memory management. I think it's true, if enough free memory exists any os will keep more tasks active and multitask between them will be instant...

But android keeps loading and unloading apps, in the background, which I almost never use but consume memory.

Skype is the perfect example. When i do not need it, I am signing off skype and go straight back to my home screen... Of course, as we all know, skype persists and never exits. It's just sits there consuming memory and doing nothing. If I try to kill it, android will happily and immediately reload it. The only way really kill it, is to uninstall it, but is this a solution?

One more example? The facebook app or the friencaster app. Even if I disable every automatic refresh or log off from facebook some part of them will keep running and like skype I cannot kill it.

The essence of all this is that: I own a phone with 512 mb of ram assisted with a powerful, 1 GHz, CPU, much - much more than an alcatel OT 908 and this doesn't show. Maybe is the 100+ apps I've installed in my phone, maybe is android, maybe is a bug, maybe it's me whining. Whatever is it... it's wrong and yes, I'm starting feeling angry, very angry with... Google and Samsung :-)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrIwik:
Assuming your phone is rooted there are apps that can disable or prevent other apps from starting and running in the background- android optimize and autostarts seem to work for me.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rschenck:
Looking at the specs for the OneTouch, I am not surprised it is fast.

The 600mhz chip it is using is quite overpowered for what is effectively a featurephone. It is also supporting a much smaller, less advanced screen (256K colors, TFT) which frees up a LOT of cpu cycles for basic functions. This kind of speed while just being a phone is why feature phones aren't as dead as people keep assuming.

It is also running Froyo, which was made for this kind of phone and likely races on it, without having to worry about the sort of strains a Galaxy class smartphone puts on an OS.

Remember, if you install a slimmed down OS on a custom designed modern laptop, and ONLY install a handful of programs no doubt it will break speed records. However, to judge it against a fully loaded, professional install is like comparing apples and oranges.

alcatel ot 908 runs NFS shift, NOVA, Gangstar, BIA2, Sandstorm, Sims3, Rackless Racing, GuerillaBob, dead space....runs 99% hd games that don't requires armv7 or 2.3

it's way better then most off QVGA android and all msm7201 and msm7225.... (hvga and qvga)

for that money...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lukesan:
Well I have to say.

Just bought this second hand SGS to test and compare with my Desire HD.

If I can be honest. Both have the same clock freq and specs seems the same, but the DHD (lets call it that way) is alot faster than the SGS.

I am amazed how long it takes to just open the camera. On the DHD the camera app opens in half a second I think.

Then sometimes you click on something and nothing happens making you think that you didn't click anything at all. On the DHD opening anything is instant.

I'm running Darky 10.22 so if someone knows if I need to change something to make this a faster thing please let me know.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snakeforhire:
the only advantage of the desire hd and the alcatel ot 908 (i own one of these and a desire S, very similar to the hd hardware-wise) is that out-o-the-box, they're configured almost perfectly for their respective OS version and hardware.. Samsung makes some very tough and cutting-edge hardware, but they've always been lagging behind software-wise (and still are to some extent, i know what i'm talking about here too : my main device is a note2 N7100 and my dev/test device is my old -but almost unbreakable even when I'm the one who opens it up to solder or repair sthg in it- galaxy s2 i9100... None of those were left "stock", they're both fitted with CM10-derivated ROMs (most of the time a ParanoidAndroid or some derivate), heavily customized and "after-market" optimized (thanks to all the good tips&tweaks found here at XDA ^^) just to remedy those problems.. Never for my life would I leave one of these stock (I run a stock firmware on a dual-boot on the SGS2, but that's only for entering USSD codes, as these usually won't work on CM7/9/10 ROMs)... And yet, they're both way better when they're still "stock" than the Wave 1 was, with his powerful 1GHz Snapdragon CPU, but a puny 512Mb RAM -shared with the OS/CPU and GPU at that, leaving a mere 312Mb -give or take- to the poor user.. Far too low for its memory-hungry Bada OS,even in its latest and last 2.X versions.. I couldn't even open a second page in its Dolphin browser before it started shutting down background apps and closing widgets.. :s).

you won't be able to load that many apps on it m8... ^^

even with a big-ass 32Gb SD card, its /system and /data partitions are way too tiny for this number.. trust me, I've tried it, it choked at 20-30 tops for "average" apps (between 1 and 4Mb each)... ;)

[Verizon Droid Charge] wildragewildrage:
When I first got my Charge I was getting great batter life - anywhere between 16 and 24 hours with normal use. I used Voodo to root it, and continued to get great battery life.

I then installed a EP1Q ROM and modem and everything immediately went to hell.

I almost never had data, was always stuck jumping from 4G to 3G to 1x, and completely missing text messages.

I immediately reflashed an ODIN EE4 rom that was completely stock with radio.

But I'm still getting absolutely crappy battery life (less than 8 hours with light use), and my data is broken more then it works. I even recalibrated the battery.

Any suggestions? I thought when I flashed the ODIN rom (CI510_VZW_EE4_ALL_ONE-LTE-CP_REV03_user_CL1014954.tar.md5), I thought I completely went back to stock - or maybe I'm missing something? Or a Rom/Radio that might give me the best results?

Flashed my t mobile tab to 2.3.3 and have been trying to find a modem that will actually give me decent service. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1069727 I've tried all the modems on the above link and none of them provide service like the stock t mobile modem. The stock modem will be at four bars -85 dBa and the most I can get with the other modems is -99 in the same spot.

is this behavior normal with the t mobile tab
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Githrog:
I think the problem is that the t-mobile modem is the only modem that accepts the t-mobile usa bands required for a good signal, the other modems like the ones to make and receive phone calls are from other countries, with different bands being used causing a poor signal, I also have the same problem that you are, in my house with t-mobile modem I get full signal and 3g, with any other modem I have tried I get about 1-2 bars at most inside my house with 2g or E as it is referred as. Please do not quote me on this information, it may be incorrect. This is just what I have figured out on my own. Hopefully one day we will get a correct modem for 3g data and phone calling together to stop this issue.

Most of the packs are garbage, but the 'Clean' one is nice. Pretty much blacks out your UI, then you can build it back up how you like it.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Veldetta:
Post a screenshot (hold the power and home button together)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Scaplet:
No real need to. The Clean pack is the same as a theme, you can change it yourself, and simply go back to your original if you don't like it. Just look for the Sprint ID in your icons.

Most of the packs (themes) you can choose are total garbage; NASCAR, Lo2yo Latino, Real Estate Pro and such. But the Clean pack removes all the original widgets and most of the icons, leaving you a black backround (no wallpaper) with 3 icons on the dock; contacts, apps, and the Sprint ID.

From this point you just have a clean slate to add whatever wallpaper widgets or icons you want. But its kind of pointless posting a SS of a black screen with 3 icons on it.

Figured I would just to see if I could. Posting a pic on here seems to be a PITA unless I'm doing it wrong. From the XDA Premium app, it tells me the pic has the wrong extension to upload - this just the raw SS in my gallery.

So then I have to email it off my phone, upload it to the interwebs from my PC, then finally - link it here. Bleh. Cry Cry, right? Anyway, here it is. All I did after applying the Clean pack was add a wallpaper, and put a couple of icons at the bottom.

[Motorola Droid 3] rickatnight11:
I just picked up my Bionic, but when I restore the SMS messages from my previous phone, the default Messaging app displays them with the timestamp at which they were restored, not when they were sent.

I'm not sure if this is a problem with the messaging app or SMSBackupRestore, but the sms.xml I'm restoring from definitely has the timestamps in there.

For the time being I've backed everything up and wiped them from the phone so that I can restore whenever this is fixed (or I flash a new ROM.)

Anyone else experiencing this?
[Motorola Droid 3] lordgodgeneral:
I've ran into this on most the SMS restore apps, tried the one you did, tried mybackup pro, haven't had much luck finding one that restores the original times.

It sounds like how the Bionic's messaging app displays the texts, then. All the backup app does is parse the XML file and insert the messages into the common sms SQL database.

**UK ONLY**

THIS IS FOR USERS WHO PURCHASED A "SIM-ONLY" Package.

Hello, I'm not sure if this is allowed here. If not please can it be moved to the right location.

Short story...

I am currently on contract with 3 UK that gives me 100 minutes, 5000 texts and 500MB internet. I am paying £15.32 per month.

I rarely use minutes and don't use anywhere near 5000 texts. So I was thinking how many users are like me, that doesn't really use most of the allowance given to us, but pay for the allowances that we don't actually use.

I have created this short survey that I would like you all to fill out. Please just the UK only!

Here is the survey:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dFROQ1ozcklQM2hvUVhNczRJRVZqRGc6MQ

And please spread this round!

I had decided that this would be only for "Sim-Only" users as going on contract with a phone will mess wit the results as you are paying for the phone too.
[Off-topic] Dirk:
I'm on contract so i won't fill out the form, but i don't think £15.00 a month is bad at all.

I would like to see carriers introduce data only tariffs though, much like i have with Be* for my internet. For that tariff you would get a larger data allowance but no free calls or texts. Can't see them going for it though.

Anyway, good luck with your survey! Let us know your results when you're done?
[Off-topic] nicky041192:
I believe 3 do a data only tariff.

£15 a month IMO is a bit much for what I use. I just want the option to reduce my allowance a save a few £. I'm sure a lot of users would also appreciate this.

I also had an idea which led me to create this survey. See picture.

You get a fixed amount of minutes and you can change how many texts or data you want. You can sacrifice some texts for some more data allowance. You can adjust on a monthly basis. I have set the price to compete with the 3 network as they have the cheapest tariffs with mobile data included.

I was thinking of opening a Mobile Virtual Network Operator like GifGaf and Tesco.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_virtual_network_operator

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_UK_MVNO#United_Kingdom

But I have no experience in any of them sectors and I'm not a business person. I just have an idea.

Perhaps I should pass my idea with the major networks? But will be hard to contact.

I'd post results if i get any XD
[Off-topic] Dirk:
You've got me thinking now. I'm paying £30 a month for what amounts to 500MB of data. I don't really call or text at all. (Forever alone.jpg)

And you think you're overpaying! :D
