[HTC EVO 3D] felacio:
Really? Another one of these posts? *sigh*

Just to note. The fact the Sammy might be using a snapdragon does not mean, at all, that its the better CPU. Do all manufacturers go with the best when building anything?

Absolutely not... So why do they go with some parts over others? Cheaper. If their contract ran out with Nvidia and they could go with Qualcomm for cheaper. Yeah, they would jump the boat for sure.
[HTC EVO 3D] lewis952:
well i mean alittle higher;)

While the NS4G is smoother than the E3D, the E3D is certainly a lot faster.

Does the hardware on the HTC Flyer check the bootloader's digital signature?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Master Melab:
Can anyone answer this?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Master Melab:
I am bumping this thread again.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Master Melab:
Will someone please answer this question?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] quickquest88:
It comes from the store locked, but you can unlock it by going to

http://www.htcimeiunlock.com/

They will allow an unlock, but you lose your warranty.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] AidenM:
He means if the boot loader is locked, not the carrier. And also to the OP, do you mean read-write access to the boot loader or something else?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Master Melab:
I want to know if the first stage bootloader is signature checked by the HTC Flyer's boot ROM. If it isn't then the locked bootloader problem can be solved by simple overwriting it. And yes, read/write access would be required to overwrite the bootloader.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] AidenM:
Well i would say no. You can't get a custom boot loader to load 2 roms or anything yet. No access at all, read or write.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] globatron:
No it isn't, it's actually easy to edit a bootloader, it's getting it onto the device that's hard.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Master Melab:
I still would like to know if the bootloader itself is signature checked.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] globatron:
well then read my last post.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Master Melab:
The only thing your previous post tells me is that accessing the area where the bootloader resides is difficult.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] globatron:
The the "no it isn't" doesn't mean anything?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Master Melab:
Sorry. I thought you were talking about simple read/write access.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] globatron:
Master Melab,

PM me is you have specific questions, you can post a summary after that if you want.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Master Melab:
I messaged you my questions.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] scotty1223:

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] globatron:
yep, got it. I'll try to reply this evening.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Master Melab:
Thank you.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] scotty1223:
if its fairly easy to edit a bootloader, is it not possible to patch the HC hboot to think the radio is s-off(like the revolutinary does),then simply install that hboot in place of the real one,when following the HC install guide?

seems after one roots GB with revolutionary,it should be fairly easy to get an s-off HC hboot for someone who knows how to do such things :) what am i missing? :confused:
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] globatron:
Scotty can you resend your PM? I accidentally deleted it when i was clear out my inbox.

Actually you're not missing much with that line of thinking, I'm just looking into the new hboot/radio combination now to see if what I said previously still holds true, and that signature checking wasn't added this time.

EDIT: Oops, it's wasn't you who PM'd me...found the PM
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Master Melab:
globatron explained to me that there are no hardware based signature checks in place. Instead, hboot will signature check anything that is flashed in its place.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Master Melab:
In order to gain access to the bootloader, could it be possible to unsolder the memory chip and hook up to its pins?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Paul Nur:
Ok, so my question is, what should I do to maintain my phones speed, I recently been noticing my phone has getting a bit laggy. Out of the blue a few times a week it laggs no matter what I do for a few minutes?

Is there a few steps I can follow to free up memory or some stuff I should clear every few weeks? Boot cycles? Anything?

Thanks guys.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] FatalityBoyZahy:
I NEVER stick with one ROM for more than a week, or I'll usually do a factory reset every few days. A reboot once a day also helps... But whatever you do, DO NOT use a Task Killer to free up memory, Android manages memory perfectly fine without any 3rd party apps.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phburks:
Reboot every couple of days. The more "stuff" running at once, the laggier you're phone will feel. Don't use a task killer, but DO make sure only the apps and widgets you want running are actually running. A lot of apps will sync and update information in the background and that means fewer CPU cycles for the things you want them for.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] LordButtersI:
Linux, for the most part, requires no maintenance beyond common sense. You do not have to worry about memory, Android can manage it perfectly well in its own.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Paul Nur:
Um? You are constantly changing ROM's? Why? That is so time consuming...

Yeah I am going to start power cycling my phone like every 4-5 days, and I just noticed (still giving it time) clearing out my text messages helped.

P.S. Know of any apps that you can schedule a reboot?

Ohhhhhkay! lol.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] strung:
You must be rooted. It's a kernel module that sends commands to the Wolfson sound chip, making the headphones jack output sound louder and clearer. It also lets you change the color profile for more accurate colors displayed.

Not relevant to the Nexus S, but on the Galaxy S series there is also a voodoo lagfix, which was a term coined to describe converting the system and data partitions from the Samsung proprietary RFS filesystem to ext4 to increase (sometimes significantly) disk io speed.

Makes me wonder if it's from one of the apps I'm using.. like a form of ad-ware etc. I only started getting it recently, and I've got a few new apps. Only thing is, they are full version paid apps.

My EVO is fully S-Off rooted.. running the latest stock rom and kernel with the latest radios. I don't think it has anything to do with root, rom, etc. I'm thinking it's app related.. whatever it is.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] einarki:
Try AirPush Detector to locate the app causing this.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] misery in motion:
Thanks for the suggestion einarki. I went and grabbed AirPush Detector and ran it. It's showing one app. It's an app I've had for some time now tho, so I'm not convinced it's the culprit considering this mystery notification first appeared maybe a week ago. I've had the app it detected for months.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] bella92108:
So I know, bits and pieces have been posted in the 20 threads or so, but I'm curious if someone can explain a couple things. I'm wanting to get away from Infused because I've had the slow network performance and lag many people have discussed, but the devs don't seem like they're interested in working those issues, which is a shame, because the whole "4G" on a "4G" speed phone is somewhat important, heeh.

I am on Infused 2.3.3 (so it's already converted the file system to the ext4 or whatever), and I'm on the latest UCKI3 radio.

1) How would I go about upgrading to MIUI? Since I've done all the steps to get Infused on, do I need to go back to the factory stock and then flash MIUI, or what's the best method of doing it? I want to make sure I get the full benefit like the network speed, etc.

2) What radio is built into the ROM? Do I also need to re-flash a radio?

3) Regarding kernels, I see some comments that I'd need to flash a new\better kernel to take full advantage of the network speeds and phone's features. Can I get a brief explanation and advice on this?

I wish there was a "MIUI 101" thread like most of the other ROMs have... makes it really easy to open and see the steps to install from the various methods and points from which it'd be installed, as well as FAQs to address questions like the ones I've posed above.

Thanks all for your help! :-)

Bella
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Xev_10177:
Hi Bella. There already is a FAQ for MIUI thread on this forum. There's already a MIUI Q&A for Infuse thread. You can head over there and leave your question there as it's more likely more people will view that thread than this one. Some people consider may consider this question "out of place" and won't even bother read/glance through/answer you're question.

I simply flashed MIUI like any other ROM. No need to go back to stock and then to MIUI.
[Atrix 4G General] rickriego:
so i got a warranty replacement and the girl offered to replace my sim as well because it "was looking kind of worn out" so i agreed.Now my reception and consequently my dl speed went to absolute crap. Barely breaking 1.5 down and .61 up whereas with my previous sim and EXACT SAME SETUP/PHONE would be in the range of 2.2-5Mbs down and right around 1 UL. Im gonna try changing the apn see what that does. Anybody else experience this or any ideas other than apn?

Update: about 10 speedtests later its starting to get back to normal. Anybody know what if any changes the newer type sim may introduce?

[Atrix 4G General] GTTG_Atomik:
A newer SIM would only get you better service as it has all the proper updates for the time you received it. Most likely they gave you an LTE SIM which wouldn't hurt you any. You're data package is what controls what your speeds are. Without having a proper HSPA+ plan would be the only way for you to get slower speeds. But, I'm glad to hear that your speeds are "back to normal."

I use this one from Best Buy:

http://m.bestbuy.com/m/e/product/detail.jsp?skuId=1114106&pid=1218221913668#product-overview-open

It doesn't say in the specs on Best Buy's site but it outputs a total of 2amps. Your phone will draw only what its capable of, but the 2amp output will allow your phone to draw at its maximum charge rate. It also has a USB port on the charger for charging a second device. If you 2 devices are charging at once then it splits the 2amps between the 2 devices for a max of 1amp each. If only one device is plugged in then the full 2amps is directed to that device.

The Motorola charger linked to above has an output of 950mah which is just shy of the stock wall charger that comes with the G2X. It will suffice and charge fine, but for max charge rate find a charger that is rated over 1amp. The one I linked you to works great. I've been using it since I got my G2X in April and have had no issues whatsoever.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phburks:

I'd say this

http://www.amazon.com/Belkin-Micro-USB-CLA-Battery/dp/B001T9N4GS

very minimalist, charges twice as fast as the other chargers. Sadly, you had to get your own USB cable :(
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phburks:
Just curious if you know the charging specs on this one? Since its USB its gonna be 5V output, but I'm wondering the output amperage. Its the amps that makes it a faster or slower charge. Phones are designed to handle a certain max amperage when charging and will accept up to that amount. For instance if the phone can accept 1.5 amps charging, then a 2amp charger would allow you to charge at the max rate. It won't take the full 2amps but having a 2amp charger will ensure that there's enough juice flowing to let it pull the 1.5amps its designed for.

So I'm just wondering the output amps of this charger if you know it.

Hello everyone, currently i'm using the CF-ROOT KF3 kernel but it's 2.3.3 and i'm not getting any updates so i thought it would be better to update the kernel myself, but...

1) On the CF-ROOT page Chainfire said to choose the closest kernel version to the stock, is it just to keep the phone as close as possible to the original or it's a compatibility requirement?

2) As far as i know, CF-ROOT does not change the modem or csc. Are the improvements of the 2.3.5 mostly related to the kernel or to the modem and csc also?

3) Any special "flavor" of 2.3.5 recommended? I mean, there's a bunch of zips in that thread...

[EVO 4G General] aph:
After flashing a few kernels yesterday, my phone started randomly FC'ing everywhere: Facebook would close when I clicked something, Gtalk after every other message, etc.

Flashing back didn't fix it and my last nandroid was months ago. I started clearing app data and that didn't do it either. In the past I booted to recovery and wiped cache & dalvik cache a few times and it made things better. This time the FC's kept coming and the best option looked like a factory wipe.

Instead, I found a solution that got me going again, cleared all my random FC's, and my phone is running smooth as new. Launcher Pro doesn't crash any more on startup like it did EVERY time, nothing has crashed all day. Here's what I did:

If you don't already have Amon_RA or TeamWin recovery installed, do that. Unrevoked/Revolutionary installs Clockwork/TeamWin but I prefer Amon_RA

Get Root Explorer or another app that can access /data and /cache with R/W permissions

Delete /data/dalvik-cache (delete, do not rename)

Delete /cache/dalvik-cache (delete, do not rename)

Shut down quickly, you won't be able to boot straight into recovery using Quick Boot because all apps will FC now

Hold volume down+power to get into the bootloader (white screen), then press volume down to get to Recovery and press power to select it

In recovery (black screen), wipe cache and dalvik-cache (I do it twice just in case)

Reboot as normal and let the phone get situated after it's done booting. It will take a while (my boot was about 5 minutes, then another 10 before all my apps showed up and it stopped being choppy)

Post back here and report results!

You have to do both the file manager delete and recovery wipe for this to work.

Doing it also had the additional benefit of freeing up a bunch of space (20mb+ for me). I was expecting some apps to be choppy on first load while rebuilding their caches but they were not. No app preferences were lost.

The reason I said delete, do not rename, is that renaming will get your device to 0mb quickly, apps won't be able to rebuild their caches, and previously working apps will keep FC'ing until you do it the right way. I made this mistake.

Please post back and report if this worked for you!
[EVO 4G General] PhxkinMassacre:
nice! glad you found out a fix because this has happened to me about 3 times in the past month or so. but the only problem i see is that when ever i try to open apps when they are fc'ing left and right is that they fc as soon as i click them. so root explorer wouldn't work for me :P haha. but glad it worked for you.
