maybe if you would read the thread you can see where pcausey77 said I needed a ROOTED STOCK ROM and Im new to all this so there is no need to act like that....and btw stock isn't unrooted when you first root your running stock...
[EVO Shift 4G General] Evil_DevNull:
Stock = unmodified unaltered oem non rooted, locked hboot and bloated kernal
[Droid Eris General] fillyo:
Hi, I need a stable daily driver for my daughters Eris, can some recommend a ROM. I would prefer sense, but may check out CM7. What is a solid ROM where the important things work (i.e. bluetooth, wife, camera, and video recorder). Thanks for any input!
[Droid Eris General] jaymax97:
Gsb 4.0 v6 script, and loopy smoothness. jit ,and compcache at 18 its so good
[Droid Eris General] Metal_Bob:
Xtrasense 2.1 based runs very smooth. (Still on wife's eris).

I upgraded to 2.3.5 based for bluetooth 1 button voice dialing. (It didn't show up till 2.2 roms :-(

Still testing the 2.3.5 roms...
[Droid Eris General] sunilromy:
xtrsense 5.1 best rom. try it.
[Droid Eris General] tazzpatriot:
Wife ? Lol
[Droid Eris General] CondemnedSoul:
A working wife is important. If she doesn't work she's not worth having:D lol

Sent using my 666th Inc from remote regions of hell
[Droid Eris General] phone_cell:
Evervolv has been very smooth, lightweight, and reliable for me.

Good luck.
[Droid Eris General] marioman94:
only rom that didn't freeze and crash on me was nonsensikal froyo.

everything works pretty smooth. altho no longer updated.

im using GSB v4.0 right now and i might change back cause it locks up 5 times a day.
[Droid Eris General] Wileyworld:
Gin Sen Taz

I have been using various roms over the last 1.5 yrs, and just tried this one lately. I didnt like the other sense roms since I needed at least 2.2 to run my favorite app (google voice search). I didnt notice this as a sense rom til lately, and it works well. Only glitches Ive found are no voice directions in Navigation, and that reloading home screen is slow, about 15 seconds. Im planning on trying Supercharger v6 to speed it up, or maybe an overclocking app to help with that delay. Maybe there is a setting to lock home screen in memory, but havent found it yet.
[Droid Eris General] Pandasaurus:
From my experience, every Eris is different; a ROM may work perfectly fine on one Eris and force close half the time on another. My older sister and I both have Erises and her phone works best with a ROM that my phone crashes every time on.

Still, if you need a starting point, I'd recommend small GSB 4.3 ODEX. It's Gingerbread, but it has some very nice ICS theming.

For some reason, Gingerbread ROMs tend to be more stable than Froyo ROMs. Or maybe that's just the case with my Eris.
[Droid Eris General] Griwka_od:
Good day.

Please advise rom based on 2.2 or 2.3 which has Sense. Thanks
[Droid Eris General] theboo7:
Exodos sense by Mac is a good 2.3+
[Droid Eris General] BigJArm:
I have been using GSB 4.3 and it is solid, fast and reliable. I have had 0 problems with it. My little old Eris has never ran better.
[Droid Eris General] Griwka_od:
thanks for advise!

I flashet it, but noticed it is slow, weather widget always fall down when i try to change my location. And i tried to change system language with locale2 app, but translation adden only for several places :( 2.1 sense rom had system translation about 95

[Droid Eris General] OMJ:
I bought a cheap bad-esn Eris for my 8 yr old son....just to use as a wifi device (kinda like a ipod touch). I've rooted & have tried a few ROMs but Angry Birds is still pretty laggy. It's playable using Adfree but still real laggy.

Is there any ROM (maybe overclocked) that will play Angry Birds and plants vs zombies w/o lag or is it just too weak?

thx....currently running OMGB_desirec-1.2.2

Hi

I was looking for a way to bluetooth share a folder on my andriod to my pc

Sorta like how you would create a Network drive on your Computer so all your other computers can access it to transfer files instantly.

Is it possible to do this between andriod to PC?

I have a blue tooth dongle on my PC
[Optimus One, P500, V General] IamIrene:
just buy a bluetooth port for ur pc

Already have one..
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Incognitum:
I work for an IT firm, and often when we go onsite we end up having to retrieve user passwords for various reasons. Right now our options are to:

A) Print out the site's password sheet and take it with us

B) RDP back to our company network and lookup each password as needed

The first solution is rife with security concerns, while the second is a pain in the butt.

What I would like to do is set up a background wifi sync at the office with my android tablet, so every time I leave the building I automagically have up-to-date files with me. But also store them in an encrypted folder or format, so if the tablet gets lost we don't have to reset many hundreds of client passwords. I am not at all opposed to buying an app, or more than one if this can be accomplished in a convenient and secure way. Any ideas?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] landwomble:
Dropbox? Preferably combined with storing the passwords in an encrytped database such as keepass?

Really, you want confirmed sign off from your management here. ****ing up with a customer password database (say you lost your phone) is a Career Limiting Move.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wali01x:
Hi ive tried to do alot of research as to how to flash roms and so im not getting a clear image from anyone thats posting things. Again im new to galaxy s2 got it bout 2 days ago and id like to be a flash junkie again from my x10 thaats how i was :D what i want to find out from anyone that can assist me and explain step by step how to flash roms on my device. my sgs2 is from bell and its kg2 with 2.3.3 and i see on forums of 2.3.5. so id like to know if im able to flash any roms on my phone and how to flash and things it doesn't seem straight foward as how xperia x10 was :D lol sorry for being a noob. once i get my answers go ahead mods or admins to closing my thread. thank you
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KayvinM:
You can check out this thread for a step by step guide for installing 2.3.5. You can also find all the firmware's leaked/official that you can flash here. The only thing I would advice is for you to read up as much as you can and familiarize yourself with Odin, if you are not already. Also when flashing roms it's safest if you don't include the .pit file. If you ever want to flash back to the stock bell rom, you can find it here. Good luck and happy flashing:D

Here's a comparison chart I just created of warranty and insurance coverage for smart phones.

Comparison is between SquareTrade, Worth Ave Group, ToughCell, and Sprint TEP. I did not include others as I am not really familiar with them or haven't heard of them. I have Sprint, worked with SquareTrade, and will probably be going with Worth Ave Group in the near future. I did my best to be as accurate as possible but things may be different! Feel free to suggest corrections and/or additions. I'll update/fix it and repost whenever I get the chance.

**This information may not be 100% percent accurate so ask questions to whichever party you choose before signing up for anything, anywhere! Things change, and information found on their websites may change or may be incorrect! All information in this chart is collected from their respectful websites and recent experience**

*Coverage compared is for SMARTPHONES only, NOT iPhones or anything else* No, I'm not saying iPhones aren't smartphones, they have their own category on most of the websites of these providers.

[Motorola Droid Bionic] spongers:
After searching the forum I cannot find the answer, so I am hoping someone has run into this issue as well.

Everytime I flash a ROM I restore my apps and app data from Titanium (no system data), which works fine every time. However, one of those times I decided to run the Market Doctor and "fix" the market links. What I forgot about before I did that is not all of my apps come from the Android market, some come from the Amazon market. So the apps from the Amazon market are now associated with the android market and show up as needing to be updated, which fails of course because some are paid apps on Android so the download/install is declined. I have tried uninstalling from Android and reinstalling from amazon, then restoring data only from Titanium, but the Android market still hangs on to them. Is there anyway to "unfix" what Titanium did via the Market Doctor? This also applies even after wiping and installing a new ROM because it is now associated with the Android market on their end, not only on my device of course. A wipe data of the android market doesn't work either.

Any thoughts? Thanks everyone!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dadsterflip:
Had the same problem but i use app manager now and it gives me the option to unlink the app from amazon but the funny thing is it still shows up randomly. So i gave up on it.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] wanderfowl:
1) Open Titanium Backup

2) Go to the "Backup/Restore" tab

3) Find the App which is now wrongly associated with the Android Market

4) Long press on that App in the App list

5) Click "Detach from Market"

I don't know of any way to do this in bulk, but this is what's worked for me :)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] spongers:
Thanks! That sorta worked....for some apps it worked, but some it still hung onto! WTF
[XPERIA X8 General] andrewtjb:
I'm having a weird problem with my 16gb sd card I've been using gingerdx 15 and Linux dx 003 and first off my card was working fine but I left the battery die then after turning phone back on the phone is acting as if there's no card is inserted nothing happens when I insert it and it won't Mont or anything I've tryed my old 1gb and it works fine so I tryed the card in a card reader and windows can access it fine so copyed all my stuff off it and run a full disk check and didn't give any errors so I formatted it yet the phone still wont acknowledge the card I don't understand what's going on as the card appears to be fine as windows can read and write to it fine does anyone know why this is happening?
[XPERIA X8 General] megatpanji:
Maybe you can try reformat on the phone?
[XPERIA X8 General] andrewtjb:
I can't as it just says there's no sd card inserted all the options are unavailable just acts as if I haven't inserted one
[XPERIA X8 General] megatpanji:
In my case i reverted to SE stock ROM eclair and reformat from there.A lot work to do...

Maybe someone here have other solution...
[XPERIA X8 General] andrewtjb:
I thought about flashing back just not sure if it will make any difference as far as detecting the card
[XPERIA X8 General] kaziu687:
I have the same problem with my 8GB card in GingerDX, KuyaDroid and GingerCrutz. In GingerXperia, GingerKaskus SD works fine. In CWM 4.0.1.5 my SD is not mounted and I can't mount it manually.

Sorry for bad English.
[XPERIA X8 General] andrewtjb:
Well I've just tried flashing back to stock but no luck it still wont read the card
[XPERIA X8 General] SafiXS:
Same...

Same problem.

Try to format it with SDFormater on Pc with Cardreader, on other mobile...

Is it possible the linuxDX does crash some sd?

btw. sometimes my computer can read the sd card but only ~5 mins than crash. Mobile can't read it
[XPERIA X8 General] andrewtjb:
I think it was something to do with gingerdx as only had problems with it after installing it and have u tried running check disk on your card to see if it finds errors as I don't have the 5 min thing with computer as my card reads perfectly on computer all the time as I've even done surface scans and it comes up with no errors and ive tried copying music and videos to it and they playback fine
[XPERIA X8 General] lotus13:
Linux dx v4 is out....sd card compatibility is fixed :)
[XPERIA X8 General] wc_how:
His problem is not same with this.

LDX is fixing the /sdcard path

His case is the SD card not recognized by phone.

Probably too large memory for our phone.
[XPERIA X8 General] SafiXS:
looks like my cheap sd :D goes broken. lifetime at 14 days...
[XPERIA X8 General] andrewtjb:
Lol only had mine a few weeks aswell sending it back 2day tho to get it tested and hopefully a replacement if it's broke
[Motorola Droid Bionic] abuttino:
So, I have been at the hospital all week long and my data is creeping near the old 3g 5GB unlimited limited data packaging price and I am wondering if I still need to be concerned about that old limit or can I rest at ease and know that they aren't enforcing the 5GB limit on 4g LTE
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dadsterflip:
You talking about data cap?

If you have unlimited you should be ok.

Ive seen people hit way more than that and i think verizon only throttles the top 5% on heavy used cell towers or what not.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] unremarked:
VZW is only throttling top 5% of 3g data users.

Source: http://www.electronista.com/articles/11/09/17/verizon.quietly.turns.on.promised.throttling/
[Motorola Droid Bionic] abuttino:
From what I have read on this forum and other places; Verizon doesn't actually have the ability to throttle 4g users yet?

It is truly amazing though, never in my 7 years with unlimited have I come even close. The first full month with my Bionic 4GB in less than a week
[Motorola Droid Bionic] AdamNJ77:
Amen...I never hit 2GB and am already over that in 2 weeks and I feel like I am usually on WiFi. I don't know what I will do if they ever take away my unlimited. I can't afford tiered lol
[Motorola Droid Bionic] abuttino:
The hospitals' wifi creeps at 13kbps. No way I will use that! too spoiled now. FiOS at home and 4g on cell
[Motorola Droid Bionic] RoboJoe:
I routinely go over 5GB/mo and never noticed any negative consequences. Thankfully, I was grandfathered in, or I would have had to go to Sprint.

Swyped from my Droid Bionic, unless I was in landscape, in which case I Swiftkeyed the hell out of it.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Underwater Mike:
I went from unlimited on AT&T to 4GB on VZW, and it's killing me to have to think twice before I click a link or download a file. On the plus side, at least I can get a signal now...
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Rootuser3.0:
Amen rather get a good signal than have unlimited crap data like t-mobile and Att
[Motorola Droid Bionic] denpad2010:
They say is the top 5% and thats bull**** cause if you over 2gb automatically you are in top 5% user
[Motorola Droid Bionic] frostincredible:
I easily use 10GB a month on my data. I have unlimited, thank God they grandfathered in people. If you have unlimited you are all set.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] mistawolfe:
Do you ever feel they throttle you at a certain point? If yes, at what point? 5gb? 4gb? Etc...

Just curious.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Killz86:
i just got my bionic and have had it for about week now and i have hit 2gb already, i dont even need my wifi, 4g is just that good.

i will let you know when i hit 10gb which will be before the end of the mouth for sure. if i get slower speeds.

but i am at 2.5gb on 4g and have kept the same d/l and u/l speeds and no slow downs
[Motorola Droid Bionic] denpad2010:
Damn still waiting 4g in my area
[Motorola Droid Bionic] frostincredible:
Sometimes, yes. It's obvious. But only on 3G. I've never seen a slow down on 4G. That only happens near the end of the month though, and then at the start of the next the throttle is off and it's back to full (well, for 3G) speed. I live on the outskirts of 4G so I have it when I'm away from home but then only 3G at home.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] scheatyj:
2GB tiered here, :mad:

Makes me sad. I'm at school all day tho, and its 3G at like 15kbps there.... so I use the 750kbps wifi there.... but at the downtown campus I live at, I am lured by the 25mbps 4G..... damn 2gb tier
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dacre:
I went well over 20GB (from root, not paid, tethering) on my Thunderbolt on 4G and I still hit way over 35Mbps regularly (in Los Angeles). So I'm pretty sure from experience that they don't throttle LTE.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] abuttino:
I have been a VZW customer for over 5 years, never gone over on data. I am not too worried about it after this post. Since I was in a predicament (hospital) I expect they would understand, if they thought about limiting me.

That's the most data I have ever used, and for it to be in a matter of 1 week is even more of a "wow" factor. I understand they look at trends as well. Hopefully my trend hasn't increased in the other 3 weeks with LTE :)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] bigeddthemonk:
I'm gonna have to say that the throttleing does kick in and only on 3g, which makes it even better when I'm in a 4g area, cause the difference is even bigger than normal
[Motorola Droid Bionic] eonnx:
I don't feel throttled at all.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] D623:
I've gone as high as 35gbs of data used and still haven't been throttled.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] cryptiq:
As others has mentioned, if you're on an unlimited plan, you don't have anything to be concerned about.

Just a general note, I've done my fair share of work in call centers for various telecommunications companies and one thing I've learned, it always works out better when you/me/whoever is proactive about these scenarios. In other words, if you wake up in the hospital one day, and you have your whits about you to be concerned about stuff like "i'm gonna be in the hospital for at least a month...how am I going to pay for my internet, cell phone, cable, utilities etc subscriptions.." save yourself the trouble and call ahead to explain your situation. If you start missing payments, or you go over your cell phone minutes because you're stuck in a hospital bed and don't have access to your home phone, it's a typically a royal PITA to get these things fixed retroactively - but if you take the time to make some courtesy calls you'll save yourself a lot of headaches down the road. Most corporations are understanding and accommodating when you let them know your situation in advance....but if you get behind and you want this and that credited back, you start to blend in with all the other deadbeats in the world who have every excuse in the world as to why they can't make their payments.

Sorry if I sound like an overbearing mom, not looking to lecture anyone, just sharing some tips to make everyone's lives easier. If you have any concerns at all about your data usage, dial *611 and tell them your situation, ask them to make a note on your account that you called and your concern was _ _ _ _ _ _. WINNING!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] HaYNigloo:
A true test would include speedtest.net app, I been running tests for over a month, and I've noticed a slight slow down. Could it be 4G is receiving more customers, is whats causing the slow down?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] BIBUBO BCJ:
sorry for noob question, but can this device use GSM bandwidth ? Or just CDMA bandwidth ?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] eagle848:
no throttle at all

i use 10 gig over every month no throttle on 4g or 3g

only will throttle during congested areas what i read
[Motorola Droid Bionic] abuttino:
geez 20gb..

As far as I know, Verizon doesn't have the ability to throttle 4g, of course this was information I read on this forum and not from official sources.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] uTriple:
I have hit as far as 35Mbps as well
[Motorola Droid Bionic] MillionManMosh:
Throttling is not a slight slowdown. Throttling is restricting 3G data to speeds that are closer to 1xRTT. And it has no effect at all on 4G data:

http://www.engadget.com/2011/09/16/verizon-starts-optimizing-read-throttling-network-for-the-m/

Clearly they're smart enough to understand that:

a) LTE users will use a TON more data than EV-DO (I found it hard to go over 3GB a month with my DInc, since June I've been hitting 7-10GB)

b) The LTE network is designed to handle the increased traffic- throttling is a measure meant to keep the ailing 3G networks afloat until they can phase it out entirely in favor of LTE.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] MrKazman:
Regularly burn between 22 and 30gb during a billing cycle... Still 18 to 20mb down and 15 to 18 up. Throttling is for 3G.... For now...

Kaz
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Houdiniact:
Im at just over 32gb this month and this is the highest i have ever been and i am not seeing any throttling. I watch a lot of netflix stream music constantly and the other day my comcast went down and i wanted to downlaod and play a game on steam. It was a 15gb download thats why this month is so high for me.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dogpuke1:
when your on 4G data. You are using both CDMA 3G and GSM 3G combined.. thats how they get the 4G affect! the GSm is providing the borderline high output data transfer, though, What kinda concerns me is how much will it slow down when everyone has a 4G LTE device..the FCC has granted them maximum bandwidth on this project already. Enjoy it while you can!

---------- Post added at 08:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:15 AM ----------

Also another thought we should all consider is that as more and more users sign on with the 4G LTE craze is that as the usage grows more and more and the bandwidth is flooded, Verizon will pull the same old tricks...raising prices and capping everything as well to cover up their "make believe" paradise.. We all know it will happen, So, enjoy well you can!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] bigeddthemonk:
I'm still on my unlimited plan so the paradise will live on a little longer :D
[Motorola Droid Bionic] eraursls1984:
None of the methods available can accurately measure 4g speeds so all the numbers everyone is throwing out are useless.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Juiced_RL:
I don't recall my data usage as I an on a corporate account but last month Verizon throttled my 4g mifi.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] irsmurf:
People running over 20GB/mo, may I ask what consumes the majority of that traffic? No specifics are needed, I'm just curious if you all are serial video streamists, P2P file transferring, or if you use most data for tethering with your PC.

I consider myself a heavy user of the Bionic and connected services, but I've never broken 10GB.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] nosit1:
I'm currently hitting around 2.5GB and I started my billing cycle on Saturday the 8th. It's mostly because I've been doing a lot of speed test, downloading ROM packages, uploading TB backups. I am a habirtual streamer of Netflix and a heavy Internet streaming. Plus, can't forget about streaming music. Right now, 2.5GB is without any tethering (scared to tether now, that's why I switched to Verizon, AT&T snagged me.)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] bigeddthemonk:
Netflix, hulu, YouTube and lots of browsing, some downloads too, dailys add up real quick. I hit anywhere between 10-29 , but I got the throttle hack, blurr3d, and it seems to work.
