if your trying to measure height with a scale , u wont get your answer .

The only benchmark tool that ever reflected how the phone felt in my hands , in real life usage is linpack .

changing OC / kernel is mainly the only thing that will affect linpack if your trying to use it to compare roms ill efer you to my first statement .

In order to have a good feel of a rom / set up on the phone , use some apps that will use lots of ressources , for example TW4 launcher , go in there scroll a lot open gallery (if you have many pics) scroll thru them and repeat ... Any benchmark tools will basically tell you the 'ability of your device ' ( comparing 2 different models like an inspire and an sgs2 for example will be accurate )

I recently tried Passmark Mobile. Still a beta version, but I like it. Test results reflect real performance improvement and degradation pretty closely, particularly for what concerns I/O and memory speed.

Hey , sorry my bad english

I have a problem with my phone when sending pictures message. The size on the picture I recived on my phone is very little and fill the half of my screen. But pictures I send to other, is normal size and fill the screen on my friends phones. I've tjek the mms settings and can't find a solution, any know what's wrong?

Best regards

Lennart
[HTC EVO 3D] lchupacabras:
That's not really a problem on your end; your friends are simply sending you low-pixel pics.

Tell them to check their mms settings and see if they can up the mega pixel size.
[HTC EVO 3D] flomexico:
Maybe not. I remember my Evo 4G compressed incoming pictures. May be the same thing going on.
[HTC EVO 3D] ingolfstar:
How to fix? :)

It's very annoying, can't see the pic correct - but my girlfriend's phones camera is 8 mpixel and it still resize's it. Hmm I can't understand ... Anyone?
[HTC EVO 3D] flomexico:
Is her phone also android? Android compresses the crap out of outgoing mms pictures by default. Many custom ROMs have the compression turned off. That may be a good first step until someone with more knowledge than me sees this thread.
[HTC EVO 3D] ingolfstar:
No, its a Sony Ericsson. Hmm , anyone?;(

I'm having the same widget problem as blackspawn @ dev. section. For example, Minimal Reader appears just blank, unless I switch from one theme to another and even after that it's unresponsive (the buttons aren't working and can't refresh the feed). Same goes with Calendar, if I change a skin, nothing happens. Nothing serious but annoying to say the least. Nevertheless, once you go MIUI, there's no going back. Hopefully these little errors get fixed soon. :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] sbasil:
Ok, this does not make sense at all, but after wiping dalvik cache and installing the multi-language pack, we're back on business. Or so it seems; all widgets are functional again. Weird.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] stockwell:
This week they included a patch in the launcher to support scrollable widgets, but there was a problem with the initial release which has been rectified.

Multilanguage uses a different launcher, so this is why applying the update fixes things.

If you've already got 1.9.30 and don't plan on using the Multilanguage patch you can use the fixed launcher uploaded by flibblesan here: http://www.mediafire.com/?7ja47s7q4ho4czo

Im looking for a soft that we can change voice during the call.

Even some cheap china model have capabilty too ..so why should its not yet release for anroid market anyone know?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] affinity121:
You talking about voice morphing, as seen in many movies to potentially hide the callers id?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phanbuithang:
I mean the soft that can change your voice ( robot, chipmunk or girl ... ). Isnt hide the callers iD.

^,^
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] affinity121:
Yeah you mean voice morphing software :) good question though as I haven't seen any apps that do this either, well not on the fly in a phone call.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Agoattamer:
There was an app called "Voice Changer v1.0". I used it a few times. It could morph your voice and spoof the number you are calling from. I think it made the calls over the internet. It was removed from the market shortly after appearing. It had some wierd permissions and gave you ads in your notification bar. I unistalled it because of this but noticed no ill effects afterwards.

Here is a link to appbrain but says it is removed from the market. This may give you something to google if you so wish.

http://www.appbrain.com/app/voice-changer/com.droidmojo.vc

There was another app with the same name from a different developer , "voice changer 3.4" but I never tried it and it was reported to not work. Other than that I don't think there is anything legite out there.

Edit: I just found one on the market called "Voice changer calling". Only first few calls are free. Read the reviews first if you want to check it out.

Hi,

now that the new ST15i has a better screen resolution, are we able to get rid of the embedded Sony Ericsson home screen that does not have many customization options.

my dream is to have the sense UI on this small but powerful phone.

I have iPhone 4 but I just love the added value this android small mobile gives (convinced few of my friends to use them and they just love it even the first version).

Hi All…

Really hope someone can advise me.

I’ve rooted and S-Off my friend’s HTC Desire. Now I need help choosing a ROM that is Fast, Smooth, Stable and has good battery life for everyday use. Also after I give the phone back, it won’t be updated anytime soon (I’m thinking 6months to a year) so no beta.

Thanks
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zedmarcus:
Personally I'd say go for an aosp rom. GB Sense rom's are great but most have some sort of issue with lags fc's etc and are constantly being updated.

Couple of the best would be...

GingerVillain. Richard trip just updated to version 3.1 which seems to be running well for most people.

Redux2. This is labeled as "test" status, but honestly, I was running this for a month and found no issues with it at all. Was the fastest and smoothest rom (when teamed with Go Launcher Ex) that I've had on my phone. (Still got my nandroid and tempted to go back).

Search the dev section and read a couple of the threads. But honestly I'd say stick with an aosp rom. There's some great one's about.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatDrOiD:
Use the search. Asking for the best rom is a completely senseless question.

SwiftKeyed from dGB using Transparent XDA App
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zedmarcus:
It's not a senseless question at all! What he's asking for is an OPINION.

If someone asked you what's the best car in the world, or what's the best football team, would you say "don't be stupid, that's a senseless question"? No, because you would have an OPINION about it and be able to give an answer according to what you thought.

Or are you saying you have no opinion, or free thought of your own?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatDrOiD:
Choosing a rom depends so much on personal preferences that it's senseless (=not helpful) to tell the OP what's the best rom my opinion is. If you read any thread with this topic you would understand it's senseless to ask this question.

Think about it: E.g. I tell you Mercedes builds the best cars in the world. You test it, don't like it, test BMW and like it. Result: My opinion did not help you at all.

And to form an opinion he just have to use the search.

Conclusion: His question was not stupid, but senseless.

SwiftKeyed from dGB using Transparent XDA App
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zedmarcus:
I have read threads on this topic, and yes in a lot of cases it is stupid because they just ask "what is the best rom". However in this case if you read the op you'll see that what he is asking for is an opinion from people who have flashed Desire rom's for a "fast, smooth, stable" rom with "good battery life". Like I said before, he is asking for an opinion.

"Hey MatDrOiD, that movie you went to see the other night, was it any good because I'm thinking of going to see it?"

"Sorry, I can't answer that because it would require me giving you my opinion. And any opinion about the movie is dependant so much on personal preferences that it would be senseless and not helpful of me to tell you anything about it, even though I saw it and might/might not have enjoyed it. Therefore I cannot tell you whether I think it was good or not, and I refuse to speak about it any more."

Edit:

"MatDrOiD, that girl over there is pretty hot yes?"

"Why are you asking such a nonsensical question? My opinion has no bearing to you on whether she looks nice or not. I could say yes, but someone else could say no. So in that sense I will just stay quiet and not give any opinion about it one way or the other."

Edit2:

"So Mr Hawking, what is your opinion about subatomic matter anti-matter particle deceleration in a flux void?"

"What a senseless question. Spend the next thirty years researching the subject and then make up your own opinion. Even though I am the most knowledgeable man on the planet on this subject, I refuse to give you my opinion."
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stankyou:
+1 on this. Aosp rom would be my choice as well.

Ignore me, I'm a n00b posting via xda app.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatDrOiD:
@zedmarcus:

Your examples have nothing to do with the OP's question. In all your three of your examples the questioner asks for an opinion about a specific topic (movie, girl, subatomic matter).

In this topic the OP asks in general. If he asked something like "what do you guys think of oxygen or AOSP roms in general, then your example would be appropriate.

Furthermore, the thread title says "best rom". ;)

Nevertheless, we should end this: Because of personal preferences I recommend lightweight AOSP roms like dGB, Oxygen or Redux.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Borat38:
Girls, girls, quit bickering. There is no place on XDA for thin skins.

IMHO, Oxygen and Redux are two of the fastest and stablest ROMs if you dislike the HTC bells and whistles. I used to be a Leedroid and StarBurst mainstay, but since switching over to Oxygen,

I haven't had one single incidence of bootloop

, even after powering on after my battery fell out after I accidentally dropped my Desire onto a marble floor.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zedmarcus:
@MatDrOiD

I don't think you really understand what you're saying...

If you had even bothered reading the first post instead of just the title you would have seen that he is asking for a specific type of rom, "I need help choosing a ROM that is Fast, Smooth, Stable and has good battery life for everyday use."

And the specific topic in question here is a Desire ROM. Your arguement is SENSELESS.

But anyway...

+1 for an aosp rom

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ATZ-007:
Thank you so much “zedmarcus” for your advice and thanks “rootSU“ too.

@MatDrOiD

All I’m after is a Fast, Smooth and Stable ROM with good battery life.

Now I have two options,

1.	I can download and try all ROMs available for HTC Desire for one week each (which will take months).

2.	I can ask people what they would recommend, and based on recommendations I can decide on one ROM (or if it’s two or three, I can easily try them and that would only take few weeks).

In the interest of saving time, I have chosen option 2 and I still think I have done the right thing.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] siomay8:
Consider trying AOSP mate, most if not all of those criteria you're looking are present. Currently using Gingervillain 3.1, for me its fast.

But speaking of battery life, i want to know the opinion of others....im a moderate user, brightness to low, only used wifi as of the moment for surfing the net, turns it on only if needed but one time i fell asleep leaving wifi on for more or less 7hours.after 2days i still have 20%..is the batt good to your opinion????
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Its impossible to judge really, as usage differes and I can't tell anything about your usage without hard facts.

I can say from my experience, GV battery life is ok, but not as good as Oxygen, redux or dGB for my individual usage.

Seems this is a common error among android users.

Galaxy S2 4G on Bell

Rooted

For the last 2 days I have read and researched typical problems related to this error message;

"Sorry the application Message (process com.android.mms) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try agaain. Force Close"

I have tried any solution I've found, but am still unable to resolve the issue.

I can only attribute the problem to deleting a few bloatapps, namely Social Hub... as it seems everything went sideways after uninstalling.

Anyway, I have been thinking if I could reinstall Social Hub maybe that would work?

Other then that, I'm open to just about anything. I don't use apps much at all, I want minimal bloatcrap... but have performed a few hard resets in order to return to stock (minus Social Hub however!) only to create a folder to move all the Dross apps, as opposed to uninstalling anymore.

Well long winded, sorry, I have searched quite a bit, and tried many of the solutions provided... if anyone has any ideas, I'd be very appreciative.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mudferret:
Look through a ROM thread or two, they usually have separate downloads for the Samsung apps that they removed from the ROM for those who wish to retain Social Hub, et al. Get yourself up and running and selectively freeze items rather than delete them until you figure out exactly what you need/want.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beakie:
thanks for the idea, I have actually gone a route along those lines.

I found this thread (androidforums.com/samsung-galaxy-s2/419294-android-2-3-5-gingerbread-xxki3-update-samsung-galaxy-s2.html) on another board, it updates the phone to Android 2.3.5.

It has resolved all my issues (well so far) and to be honest things seems to look/work a little cleaner.

I'll keep your idea about "freezing" in mind now though as I don't think I will be uninstalling anything for a while. All extra apps are dropped into a Folder to keep them out of sight.
