I asked the same-ish question myself a few weeks ago and after working my way through a few choices I found that adw launcher for the shortcuts and folder organizer were exactly what I wanted in terms of simplicity.

I've searched 2 forums & can't find a straight answer so I figured I would just ask...

I am trying to edit the http pd proxy(s) to get faster 3G speed but when I type ##3282# into the phone pad nothing happens:(

No popup box, nothing...the ##3282# disappears from the pad and nothing happens...I've waited about 5 minutes and nothing.

Anyone else have this problem or, better yet, a fix for this problem?

thanks in advance guys!:D

You are performing this on a sense rom?

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ndstrctbl:
First thing is you need to be on a sense rom for this. Also epst has to be included in it. Most do, but occasionally you find one with an updated version that doesn't work as well as the older version
[Nook Color General] shieldsit:
I used ManualNooter 4-5-18 and then 4-6-16 and then did the permissions fix that they said to do.

Everything worked fine for about 3 days. I went to turn it on it showed the Nook Color logo and froze. Now it won't do anything.

The only thing I can do is boot from SD with ClockWork Mod but it won't read it correctly, can't mount, can restore zip's etc.

Tried to push the Boot.img which seemed to have worked, but when I try to push the System.img it dies with a protocol error and the Nook powers off.

Please please someone tell me they know how to fix this! I can even give access to the machine it's hooked up to and let you have at it!
[Nook Color General] acser123:
I found that the automatic updates in Market screw up the latest manual nooter. Here's how I fixed the problem.

*IMPORTANT* You have to do this before the Market first updates itself resulting in an endless boot cycle. This procedure will unfortunately also stop automatic updates to the Market. However, it also stops the Nook Color going into the endless boot cycle after the first Market update.

1. Wipe the device (8 failed boots) and clean the memory (press and hold n while booting and keeping the power key depressed).

2. Complete the B&N registration process.

3. Upgrade to the latest B&N firmware (I tried 1.2 manually)

4. Use CMW and manual nooter by following this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1054027&page=1 to root your Nook Color.

5. Use the Market to download Terminal Emulator (see https://market.android.com/details?id=jackpal.androidterm&hl=en for details)

6. type

$ su -

# pm disable com.android.vending.updater

I'll go through these and see what happens, but I wouldn't call what's happening to mine a boot loop. Nothing shows on the screen at all unless I boot from SD card.

And thank you for replying and trying to help me. I'm lost without my Nook. If I get it working I'm not risking rooting it again.

I am not responsible if you brick your phone.

This is

ONLY

the modem, not a full ROM.

I take no credit for this, I only extracted the modem.bin from the KJ3 ROM leak and made it into an Odin and CWM package.

Here is the new KJ3 modem in Odin and CWM flashable form. Simply flash with Odin (in the PDA slot), or use the CWM package. Enjoy!

_______________ Edited Below_____________

Tested out the wifi a bit here between KI3 and KJ3, Here is what I got.

Using Wifi Analyzer I tested the connections in -dBm, so the higher number is best (Ex: -34 is better than -54)

I disconnected and reconnected 10 times, and took the numbers I got each time. Then Averaged them.

I am in my bedroom, and my router is in the living room, so I'm not far from it, but I'm not in the same room either (Small Apt)

Also all tests were done with the phone in the exact same spot on the corner of my desk.

Keep in mind results may vary, and these results really don't have THAT much of a difference...

KI3 averaged -69 dBm

HJ3 averaged -76 dBm

That's almost no difference, at least for me.

I get weaker WIFI signal on KJ3 comparing to KJ1

[HTC EVO 3D] hoffman1984:
So, the headphone jack broke on my epic today... and to my surprise the sprint rep told me I could get an EVO 3D to replace it... I've always been interested in the EVOs and am wondering how the development is on it. I'm seeing a lot of sweet ROMs out there, but will be looking to dive into my own. Am I in for a challenge or what?

The only thing I've worked on is some lockscreens, smali mods, etc. Which were all incorporated into my Stocky-ish GB leak...

Input appreciated. =)

I'm no dev, but HTC products always have and will have the best development. You'd be making a wise trade imo.
[HTC EVO 3D] hoffman1984:
Well, i'm not exactly trading... I'll still have an Epic and plan to continue development on it as the Epic dev community is wearing thin.... Just trying to get a feel for the crowd, and how I should expect things to go. =)

Thats true, but they are both very high-end phones with extremely similar specs. The Epic touch does have some better specs, but they are still similar.

The development on the HTC Evo 4G and 3D is really nice. There are a lot of a ROMs. The Evo 4G had a lot of mods and I expect the same for the Evo 3D later. It is a great phone for development.

One thing, you must be warned about, is the community. Read a few threads in the general section and you will see what I mean.

ok so i just got back from sprint cause my 4g quit working, i obviosly unrooted and went back to stock and got s-on. my question is shouldnt 4g not work if the 4g mac address is unavailable. the sprint tech said it didnt work after running all the test but when i got home and try 4g it obtained the ip address and connected, is it really running on 4g or is that just a glitch. should i just keep this evo and reroot or take the refurbed one they ordered for me, also has any one had any problems rooting a refurbed evo before?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:

edit: never mind i got it after tossing in my sd i was able to go into bootloader, gonna start rooting again.

Hi, I lost my phone :mad: and just found out from Samsung that the SD card has no built in security. If phone is found anyone can access all files on SD Card. Just an FYI - beware.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dadyal:
Sd card can be protected with password and when you put them in new phone or any other device you need that password to open them don't know if android have the setting

[Galaxy S I9000 General] spamtrash:
OMFG ROTFL...

@ OP: when you are buying a car, and leaving the keys inside, are you warning all buyers that it may be stolen???

first, if you must make a porn photoes of your gf, put it immediately on something like Intergal Crypto, and do not watch it in sub on your phone.

Second, if you really must look on it at work, install something, like Droid Crypt or LUKS Manager...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] MrPhoneMan:
I have no idea what you are saying...LOL Firstly no porn was involved, just has my apps , music, and an encrypted excel file...just don't like the fact that Samsung provides PIN access to the phone but it doesnt subsequently provide security to the SD card attached to the phone at same time.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] spamtrash:
Samsung and Google are thinking that anyone interested would use the Encryption Manager Lite, LUKS manager or Droid Crypt from the Market.

If you want encryption, THINK first, then DO an effort to install it. Simple? not for all, as I see...

True: BAD Google, BAD Samsung, they gave you too advanced machine :(

Apologies on their behalf.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] MrPhoneMan:
Nothing to do with how advanced the machine is...but if they advised people to add additional security to the SD card, it would have been appreciated, so you don't find out when it is too late, like I did. I post this as an FYI for all.

I had a MT4GS prior to the Galaxy S II and I couldn't be more happier. :D

I'm not much of a keyboard guy nor a slider guy for a phone, but the only reason I got the MT4GS was to hold me by until the Hercules release. I bought into the gimmick of it having the best camera too, which is somewhat true, but compared to the SGSII, the Samsung camera takes much more richer, true to color pictures. I've personally snapped and compared myself with both phones.

[Omnia 7 General] fzncloud:
Hi Guys,

I know this is an existing issue but it is definitely something that either everyone has given up on, or has been blessed with a fix post Mango and Samsung firmware updates.

I am still experiencing the issue with the latest Mango and Samsung firmware updates so am slightly annoyed the issue seems unaddressed.

As I have a fresh install of my phone (was previously chevron unlocked) and updated all the way to Mango + Samsung updates, I am still suffering from the following:

- In call audio is just bearable when volume is maxed out

- In call audio sounds broken > When I am in the presence of loud noise like a noisy cafeteria or train station, My phone decides to cut the voice of the person at the other end of my call (it seems like the phone thinks I'm talking so clears the other person from noise...)

If someone has a solid fix for this, can you please provide assistance?

I have brought my phone into Samsung Repairs and they said there is no problems (obviously didn't trouble shoot calls). Having 2G only fixes the audio issue.

Hope to hear from the masses soon!

Cheers
[Omnia 7 General] andrewcsh:
No Luck with in-call Audio too...

Hi...

I am facing the same issue, already updated it with latest KH5, even the samsung driver.... Still no sound in-call...

I notice there's a patent,

1) If restarted the phone, without receiving any calls, I can call out normally, the 3rd party can hear. (sometimes VERY SELDOME 3rd party can't hear, maybe Omnia 7 muted)....

2) Problem arise when the phone receive phone call.... the Silent in-call problem arise... after that, the calls that I made out, also the same, in-call silent problem... (The 3rd party mention he/she can hear me clearly, only that Omnia speaker silent).

3) I too notice that the software will be laggy or hang a bit... as I try to End-call, i took some time, I can too see the call timer freezes...

Any advised from the Masters and Gurus here?

Thank you.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chaoscreater:
Hi guys, just 2 quick questions. As we know, a rom package contains the following .img files:

boot.img

recovery.img

secro.img

system.img

userdata.img

and as far as I know, they're all safe to be flashed. The actual .img file that updates your rom to a new or different one is just the system.img file. As for boot.img, it's the bootloader (I think?) which contains the kernel etc.

As long as you have a working backup of all those .img files that works on your device, then all of them can be flashed right?

But a rom package also contains these files:

preloader.bin

u-boot.bin

Can someone explain what those 2 are? And I kinda know a little about u-boot.bin, being that if you flash the wrong one that isn't compatible with your device then there's no way to recover it unless you acutally modify the hardware components using solders and changing the chip or something?

And to flash both u-boot and preloader, do you need to use a special USB-to-UART cable?

Lastly, about the bootloader. What are the possible ways that could cause a bootloader to be corrupted or not work properly? My phone was working fine yesterday night, I turned it off and went to sleep. I turned it back on this morning and the bootloader doesn't show any logos at all, it just shows a black screen the whole time, but you could tell it's starting up because there's a glow under the screen. And as the phone boots into the lockscreen, the screen gets brighter, but it's still black.

Also, I see weird distorted vertical lines. The last thing I did was clear the Dalvik cache but that never had any problems on my other Android devices......
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EasyDigiSoft:
Can someone answer this? I am also interested...
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mlbl:
I've just emailed the folks at Rubicon development complaining that their Great Little War Game (which is a great game btw) is laggy on my ASUS EEE Pad Transformer which is powered by the Tegra 2 SOC when you set the detail to high or ultra. Setting it to medium plays the game smoothly. Some folk posted a review of the game in the Android market praising the game runs smoothly even on his Incredible S which runs on the Adreno 205 GPU. Running the game on high / ultra adds in an excellent water effect which causes the game to slowdown on the Transformer.

I highlighted this to the Rubicon developers and one of them said that while the Tegra 2 CPU is powerful, the GPU isn't as powerful as the Adreno 205 GPU on the Incredible S. I seriously find that really really hard to believe because the benchmark figures here shows that Tegra 2 even beats the PowerVR GPU in Nexus S which is more powerful than the Adreno 205:

http://androidandme.com/2011/03/news/tegra-2-benchmarks-motorola-atrix-4g-vs-lg-optimus-2x/

So I emailed them to see if they can actually optimize it for Tegra 2 because as I understand it, you have to optimize your game for Tegra 2 chipsets in order to make full use of the GPU much like in games such as RipTide GP which has excellent graphics and I dont believe the Adreno 205 could render the water effect that brilliantly.

Could someone shed some light on this?

Update:

Here's what the developers of "Great little war game" have to say about tegra 2 tablets:

We've done just that with v1.0.4 - have a play in the new settings screen.

We've kind done all we can do now tbh, of the 4 different GPU's in Android phones, Tegra 2 comes bottom and its in most of the devices with the biggest screens.

---

Can you believe that? Sounds to me they are getting lazy rather than trying to optimize it for Tegra 2 because right now, they have two modes in the game with the new update - a fast graphics and a best graphics mode. Fast graphics mode appears to set the game resolution at a horrible 640x480 to speed things up but makes things very very ugly with heavy pixelation on tablets. while best graphics uses the native resolution, everything is sharp but slows down on certain larger levels of the game.

I suggested to them to change this to 800x600 when toggling to fast graphics which i believe will reduce the pixelation effect while still maintaining a decent graphics for the player. What do you guys think?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlexTheStampede:
Nexus S should be right about the same hardware as the Galaxy Tab, and I do run RipTide GP at full quality equally smooth on that thing. Tegra 2 is a kinda all around lame chipset, but you really notice the single core when a mail comes in, and the TF keeps you splashing around while the Galaxy stutters badly for a moment... Also no choice on the chipset at the moment if you want a tablet.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mlbl:
Nexus S is powered by the PowerVR GPU - its not the same as the Galaxy Tab at all (i'm referring to the Galaxy Tab 10.1).
