[General Questions and Answers] Zygi Jables:
If you want a 3D phone, go with the LG Thrill. It is quite brilliant.

Otherwise, I have played with the Sensation and EVO 3D and the Sensation is much more solid. Almost not competition. Plus, the EVO 3D totally sucks as far as the 3D aspect goes, so removing that makes it a good phone, but the Sensation is great. Everyone I know that has one loves it.
[General Questions and Answers] Sjael:
If 3D is a big deal to you, it's obvious.

But if I recall right, the Sensation has a better screen (or at least it's the same screen without a parallax barrier in front of it so it looks better.)

As long as the issue with the Sensation's touch screen dying after a few weeks has been fixed, I'd go for that.
[General Questions and Answers] s_superman:
In egypt we don't have that carrier thingy almost all phones sold here are unlocked

And about the problems there is a whole thread about issues with evo .. it is pinned in the general section

And it really freaks me out
[General Questions and Answers] s_superman:
No LG is only good in 3d while there phones generally suck in both quality and development and support

And I can't consider LG because there is no known retailer for them in egypt thus no warranty

The sensation is a great phone indeed and like I said I had my eyes set on it since the beginning but the 3d just made me confused

And btw the evo has a lot more than 3d to offer like the better front cam and more ram and I think it is more rugged and not prone to scratches like the sensation

Thanks for ur opinion
[General Questions and Answers] s_superman:
3D is a big deal but so is proper dev support and the wide variety of roms (owning an hd2 for so long made me a flashoholic)

I'm afraid of getting bored with the EVO while the sensation has weekly if not daily updates

I've kinda tried both I don't think you can feel there is a parallax barrier unless 3D is on

IDK but I haven't checked up closely

And I'm not worried about touch screen issues as it happened before in HD2 and got replaced with a much better one UNDER WARRANTY :D

Hey has anyone gotten the 3.2 OTA in the USA yet? I'm in Rancho Palos Verdes, CA (outside of LA); but I bought the device in Portland, OR..Idk if that makes any difference though.
[Acer Iconia A500] PhatBoyDiamond:
3.2 Update

I got the OTA update to 3.2 here in the USA yesterday. New York

Model A500

Version 3.2

Kernel Version 2.6.36.3+

Build Number Acer_A500_7.0006.01_Com_Gen1
[Acer Iconia A500] Myronbg:
I'm in the CA central coast & no update
[Acer Iconia A500] ctc71:
Still waiting here in eastern MA
[Acer Iconia A500] rampart51:
Negative in Rhode Island.

I'm not sure I want it based on some of the negative 3.2 threads:eek:
[Acer Iconia A500] dottat:
What version of 3.1 did you have? I doubt it was 4.010.13
[Acer Iconia A500] synapses11:
Got it here in MA. If you have rooted your device and haven't done the OTA, I suggest you wait even if it does come available to you. There is no way to root 3.2 and you will lose CWM if installed. So once you get it youre stuck with 3.2/no root till someone figures it out.
[Acer Iconia A500] gammaRascal:
In RI here as well and nothing - also, when it comes in, I'll put it off until after all the reports are in.
[Acer Iconia A500] adamjt:
In MA as well and nothing here.
[Acer Iconia A500] texonex:
So far, I don't think any Gen 2 unit has received the update.
[Acer Iconia A500] NoHousePhone:
That's what it seems like. I have a Gen 2 no OTA
[Acer Iconia A500] ctiger:
Oh, that's why? What's the difference between Gen 1 and Gen 2? I thought there's only one hardware, I think I saw the hardware info somewhere when I checked it on the tab, and it said rev. 1.

I'm in Socal, and so far nothing, I even went into the settings and manually checked a lot times. But as I said in another post, I doubt the location is what Acer used to decide which to upgrade first. It will be very easy to decide which country your device is in now from your IP, but other than that, it'll be hard to see where you are in the country. And to actually get a GPS location for this upgrade purpose is just an over kill, waste of their time to even develop anything like that and put in the software. If Acer needs to devide the whole population into groups to avoid congesting, there are a lot other ways to do that.
[HTC Sensation] offwiththeface:
Hey just wanted to get some opinions when flashing a rom which do you prefer sense or no sense? And why?
[HTC Sensation] g1user101:
it just depends on what you like. if you want looks and all tht apps, then go with sense. or if u want speed and all tht sense away, do nosense. but u can have nosense and keep the good apps of it with CDTdroids nosense. he keeps the htcapps
[HTC Sensation] arifafzan:
if me. i flash sense. i can switch between that. used other launcher if u dont want. but no sense is faster..
[HTC Sensation] offwiththeface:
faster meaning opening app drawer and stuff ? or everything including data?
[HTC Sensation] g1user101:
Overall performance
[HTC Sensation] moh0:
Aosp/cm7 roms are said to have data speed problems. Stay away until nightlies atleast. Sense is the way to go imo. Ever since the 2.3.4 update, sense is super smooth. I'm sure you'll agree. Plus you get stability which is a must for me.
[HTC Sensation] kpholmes:
i chose to stick with sense, it looks pretty good and i dont think my phone runs slow, i've seen some pics of other roms and in my opinion they are just not as ascetically appealing. granted i havnt seen them all, but im happy with what i got, and my phone seems to run fast enough. its all preference though, why dont you back up using titanium, try the other roms, and if you dont like then just restore.
[HTC Sensation] Sleef:
It's all a matter of preference.

Personally, I think Sense looks gross. However, I do understand what people see in it and the functionality it contains. It's different.

On the other hand, AOSP offerings generally are lighter and more customizable. Not everyone wants to spend time trying to tweak things "just so" the way I do.

Also, the notion that data speeds are lower on AOSP ROMS is laughable. That may be the case at the moment, since these ROMS are in their infancy, but that will definitely change. Too many people expect these amazing, instant results from AOSP ROMS in their alpha stages. Sense based ROMS have the luxury of being based from stock, where a team of paid devs had all the info and product needed to make a working build...and they STILL managed to give me a non functional lock screen.

What Xboarder, persionown, and TripNraver did is incredible. Don't forget that. They're working with way less than those working on Sense ROMS.

[EVO 4G General] BigMosley:
Hey has anyone ever had really ****y 3g service on sprint and improved it somehow? I was running the speed test app and I get .12 mbps down and .12 megabytes per second down. The results were always the same even before i rooted. The odd thing is I just got my wife a line on my account and she's working with the Kyocera echo and she gets almost 2 mbps down and 1 mbps up and were on the same towers and have the same PRL version. I'll call Sprint and they'll either say there's towers down or blame it on the evo or tell me to go to a repair store to blow me off. The 3g service is so horribly slow of there's not 4G or WiFi in the area I'm in then I'm not online. Anyone with info thanks in advance.
[EVO 4G General] PhxkinMassacre:
If you say your wife is getting awesome speed and yours is sh*t go to a sprint store and prove it. Or tell them to whip out their display model of the evo and do a comparison speed test. Also keep in mind this phone is over a year old so all the hardware is kind becomming more and more obsolete.
[EVO 4G General] ThumbFlip:
No problems with my 3g....
[EVO 4G General] mortgage_man:
Try to update your radio to the latest. You could also try other PRLs just to see what happens. The 00001 PRL that uses Verizon is a good one. And if u are only getting .12 down, then u r on 1X and not 3G even though u see the 3G icon at the top.
[EVO 4G General] BigMosley:
If I take it to a sprint store won't they deny me service because the phone is rooted? The radio update sounds good but How do I update my radios? Thanks.
[EVO 4G General] BigMosley:
Also on my toolbar it says 1X with arrows pointing up and down and not 3g. I don't know if this icon is the roms doing or I'm really not on 3g. How do i switch on the 3g? Thanks.
[EVO 4G General] PhxkinMassacre:
Here go and flash the combo zip on this page. And dear God whatever you do NEVER PULL THE BATTERY WHILE IT IS UPDATING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it takes a little bit for them to update and some people decide to pull the battery and turn there evo into a very fancy paper weight. After you flash I believe you have to reboot by clicking Reboot now in recovery and it will take you to a different screen where they actually update. Then I think you get put back in recovery and you reboot again and your done. Make sure you flash with amon-ra recovery because clockwork is terrible in case you were using clockwork...

[EVO 4G General] culua:
I wouldn't say I have great 3g. But lately I notice my ping using speedtest from 200+ to 100+ which is good thing because my d/l speed increase better. I hope its even better.
[EVO 4G General] BigMosley:
Thanks massacre ill hook that up and post the results.
[EVO 4G General] BigMosley:
Well I flashed the combo zip and it did everything you said it would do and I ran speed test after and its the same slow speed results. I wiped dalvik cache before I installed the zip also and nothing. Getting the feeling of hopelessness.

[EVO 4G General] mortgage_man:
Try to do an ota activation where it reprovisions. Go into ##3282#, edit mode, data profile, hit menu, and then restore. This will reboot your device and perform the ota activation. It may take a few minutes. U will need your msl to log in to the ##3282# edit menu. If u don't have it, download msl reader from the market and you're good.
[EVO 4G General] tropicalbrit:
Reposting this, I've done this in several threads before....

This is mostly everything I can think of that will give you better 3G

My suggestion:

Back up. Nandroid.

Download all latest radios. Check my sig for a link.

Wipe cache and dalvik.

Flash radio. Reboot. (All reboots will take you back into recovery)

Flash Wimax. Reboot.

Flash PRI. Reboot.

Flash NV. Reboot.

Flash a rooted Sense ROM, based on the Evo (this disqualifies MikG, Director's Cut, Synergy and other Sense 2.1 / 3.0 ROMs, because those are based on the Evo Shift/3D (I've had issues with Shift/3D-based ROMs not reprovisioning data). Update PRL. Reboot.

Go into EPST (Dial ##3282#, Choose edit mode), enter your MSL code (download and use MSL Reader from the Market to get it), Data Profile, hit the menu button and choose restore. Just sit there, your phone will reboot and everything will go back to default. Let it reprovision, but when it says "Updating PRL" hit cancel.

##3282#, enter MSL, Advanced, change both Proxy ports to 0, proxy addresses to 0.0.0.0

Hit menu button, "save changes", back out to home screen and reboot

Wipe everything in recovery three times, flash ROM of choice (clean install)

3G Supercharge if you wish

But you are talking about Sprint 3G which isn't that good in the first place

Hi,

I´m reading for hours some (why not say many) threads here in this forum regarding camera firmware update and camera that doesn´t work anymore after that. So, I have some questions:

- Is there a way to came back the camera to work?

- Why some users say 'go to dealer/carrier service team'? What this guys do that we cannot to do?

- Why the 'firmware update' button is available since it kills the camera??? It´s a guilty of Google/Android or Samsung?

- After read, I´m not sure but seems that this issue affect not only the 'Galaxy S GT-i9000' but other models also, is correct?

* I work with IT for 20 years and I like to have my systems updated with the last firmware/patches that in 99,9% of time fix some bug/issues - I never saw that kind of issue - only for cases where you run the firmware update file for a incorrect device/model. But what to say to a button that - supposedly - try to get your device model and then check for new firmware version???? :confused:

Basically, you have two types of cameras in SGS. Easy to recognise looking on the lens: green(worse) violet(better).

I have green one, I did exactly what you have done: I killed cam totally by firmware upgrade.

Yes, I found solution, here. But: it was related with hours of digging, flashing and manual files replace with ghost commander.

So: no, going to service is LAST option, but I do not remember now what I did... most likely: I found somewhere OLD firmware file, and I replaced it. If I remember good, I followed: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1263151 --> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1032437 and it was ended with success. BUT: you need root, file manager, busybox and... your cam firmware will be downgraded.

So, search xda SGS after camera firmware... or go to service.

Kies does not state a current firmware nor does it give me any option to update. I have tried re-installing kies , updating kies , re-installing of usb drivers but still does not show current firmware.

Dammit , just realized I'm on region xsg , quite lost now
[Motorola Droid 3] prstorero:
I read that with the cwm working we could flash roms once they've been made so does that mean we could also flash kernals for overclocking the cpu or is the original boot loader needed for that? If it is possible is anyone working on making them? Just curious as to what this phones capable of with being overclocked
[Motorola Droid 3] kayelemenohpee:
i thought the kernal was locked or something?
[Motorola Droid 3] onethreeteeh:
no, we wont be able to flash custom kernels

however, we should still be able to overclock through the use of a kernel module, in the same way that the milestone and various others can
[Motorola Droid 3] prstorero:
How does a kernal module work? I'm guessing someone has to write it?
[Motorola Droid 3] Willis111:
Think of it as a driver, someone just has to compile it using a tweaked droid 3 .config
[Motorola Droid 3] prstorero:
Ah alright. Well someone needs to compile one haha
[Motorola Droid 3] yang.felix:
If you only want to overclock, you don't need kernel modules. You may don't believe that but it's true you can set the frequency from user mode!

I have successfully overclocked Droid3 to 1.1G by below simple routine:

mem = mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0x4a004000);

printf("CM_CLKSEL_DPLL_MPU: 0x%08x\n",*(mem+0x16c/sizeof(unsigned int)));

*(mem+0x16c/sizeof(unsigned int))=0x0082260c;

printf("CM_CLKSEL_DPLL_MPU: 0x%08x\n",*(mem+0x16c/sizeof(unsigned int)));

Of course above routine needs you set performance to /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpux/cpufreq/scaling_governor

Then it's overclocked always and is not able to drop the frequency by kernel.

If you want kernel overclock the frequency automatically, I bet you need to hack the kernel. A module has no way to do it.

But we do be able to compile a kernel modules and do some kernel things like control PMU counters. I have verified above routine does overclock Droid3 to 1.1G by PMU counters.
[Motorola Droid 3] oostah:
is the droid 3 kernel the same as the milestone3 LATAM here is a link to the source codes

http://sourceforge.net/projects/droid3.motorola/files/

and this has the milestone 3 kernel

http://sourceforge.net/projects/droid3.motorola/files/milestone3 LATAM/5.5.1_112_87/

the milestone3 kernel is kernel_omap4.tar

it shows the system core the same for both phones.

hope this helps
[Motorola Droid 3] Rick#2:
Hey yang.felix, how did you find those offsets? I've been reading a bit about how the kernel monitors and maintains the cpufreq within the ranges output in /sys/devices/.../cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_frequencies and ./scaling_max_freq or. /scaling_min_freq and how the kernel modules written for the Milestone work, but obviously these methods don't work since omap2_clk_init_cpufreq_table can't be found in /proc/kallsyms (since we're now in 2011 and not 2009 and using an omap4430 hehe...) which makes it trickier to find out which addresses need to be manipulated as you've suggested here with mmap().

Could we not use a similar method to circumvent the kernel by directly altering the initial frequency table and mpu_opps to ensure our changes stick or has this trick been patched?
[Motorola Droid 3] yang.felix:
chapter 3 of OMAP4430's TRM has the address and offset.

Table 3-940. CM_DIV_M2_DPLL_MPU has the detail of the register.

you may want to check whether the frequency table is exported, if it does we can change the default behavior. I didn't try that.
