[Motorola Droid 3] GoogleAndroid:
The only phones that are currently out with the OMAP4 all have the 4430, exactly what we have. Clock for clock, the Exynos and OMAP4 outperform all the other chipsets, especially the Snapdragon, which uses two last gen Scorpion cores, instead of two Cortex A9 cores. When clocked at the same clock speed, the OMAP4 and Exynos perform almost identically, with the OMAP4 actually having a slight advantage.

And when you look at a phone like the Optimus 3D, with an 800x480 screen, the SGX 540 actually outperforms the Mali 400 in the GS2. Yes, the GS2 does better than us in GPU benchmarks, but you have to remember that the resolution is much lower-800x480 vs 960x540.

So don't sweat performance. You have what is arguably one of the best performing handsets at the moment, and if Moto ever unlocks the bootloader, custom kernels will really make it fly.
[Motorola Droid 3] Savior057:
...And I don't suppose Moto would ever really be Motovated to unlocked the bootloader, would they? No gain in it for them I guess, huh? There's no way anyone can crack it due to the..? What? Firmware, encryption, whatever? Bummer.

But it's good to know we have awesome hardware at least. I didn't realize the OMAP platform had come so far since my original BlackJack II with its OMAP1 220MHz single-core procesor.

Well, as can be seen at the link below, our Droid3's outperform both the iPhone 4 and the HTC Thunderbolt when it comes to loading web pages, although the iPhone 4 scrolls smoother (probably due to its simplified, quicker UI). I don't know how it will stand up against the new dual-core iPhone 4S though... 0.o

DROID 3 vs HTC ThunderBolt vs Apple iPhone 4 web browsing comparison
[Motorola Droid 3] gravenimage:
The iphone 4s' dual core doesn't improve its performance very much at all, since none of the pther hardware changed.

The only thing holding the D3 back imho is motorola and verizon(in my case) software.

Runs fast and smooth with steeldroid so far
[Motorola Droid 3] Savior057:
I keep hearing about Steel Droid; how difficult would it be to get it running effectively on an XT860? The XT860's hardware must be very similar to the XT862's (aside from the signal band/antenna hardware I'm guessing), correct?
[Motorola Droid 3] gravenimage:
Steel droid is really good, though I haven't tried it since the new version was released. But you would have to talk to chevy about porting it to the xt860. He might do it if you can get some people to donate

[Motorola Droid 3] lordgodgeneral:
Problem for porting to xt860 isn't donations, its the fact that right now there is no sbf, so if there's a problem with the flash, your SOL. It's the same reason there wasn't a whole lot of development for the droid 3 till we had a working SBF method.

Thanks guys =)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] tvall:
In my time owning my mytouch, I have yet to see a kernel that can't overclock. Anything above 528mhz is overclocking. For me anything above 595 is unstable and almost instantly freezes the system.

Here's a link for how the recovery which you will need once you root the phone http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1076967&highlight=root . At the beginning of the paragraph, there's a link for "One Click Root".. just follow the instructions, it's pretty simple.

As for EB13, no she does not have it.. her phone is running on EC05 as shown in "Build- FROYO.EC05" which is just a version of Froyo (android 2.2) as is EB13..

Were you going to install a ROM on the phone once it's rooted or..? and if so, do you need to know how to flash the ROMs?

**and for future reference, you might want to try to search the forum.. there are wikis that would have told you what EB13 and EC05 are, and the link for rooting the phone was actually the first result when you search "root" haha.

Just figured I would warn you because some people on here get pretty pissed off when someone posts a new thread about something that they just yelled at 10,000 other people for ;)

and this link roots and installs a recovery?

again thanks sorry for dumb questions
[Epic 4G Android Development] bender beerman:
ok, for starters, ec05 is the sprint distributed rom version, as would be eb13, or eh17 or any other 2letter2number codes on the epic forums. i'd stay on ec05, it seems to be the most stable rom/modem combination. you can flash most any rom (including the eh17 leak) from the ec05 rom, and you'll suffer less reboots or problems (unless otherwise stated by the rom developer) as long as you wipe properly. as you seem to be familiar with rooting, remember to make nandroids at any important step. as far as roms, i like the simply aosp and the cm7, but they have no touchwiz or sprint bloatware. if you like that, try srf.

finally, please be respectful of the forum rules and post in the proper place. this should be in q&a

edit: the 'E' stands for the year, 2011, and the 'C' stands for the month, march. this rom was released in march of this year. EC05 was the last official release, and was froyo. anything after EC (ED, EG, EH) are all gingerbread leaks that are less reliable.

[Epic 4G Android Development] ConfusingCurve:
EH17 is the lastest Android 2.3 "Gingerbread" leak for the Epic, besides the Froyo ROMs its the most stable.

Yes this will auto root and install recovery. To boot into recovery hold down Power, Camera, volume down.

After you flash the first link I posted, boot up shut down and go back into recovery and flash the second link. after that you should be good to go.

ANd it's cool man but like they said, post in Q and A, no one minds helping though.

**Personally I prefer the Gingerbread leaks over Froyo due to the speed.**

[Eee Pad Transformer General] ndwatkins:
Just a story here, I RMAed my TF about a week and a half ago for like 8 dead pixels (just bought it at the end of August) and just got it back today. Went to go nvflash it so I could have root back, etc etc., and when it booted up (came back at 91%) I noticed it wasn't charging. I tried flashing a custom kernel, still not charging. Thought that was weird, so tried nvflashing again, except nvflashing wouldn't work. Thing was, the nvflash had had some trouble the first time, because I was doing it on my husband's computer (mine like, exploded yesterday, some ArchLinux update did NOT like me) and it kept saying "could not connect to any USB devices." I didn't think much of it when it finally worked because he said his had done that before, but in retrospect, must have been related to the charging problem.

Anyway, at this point I was pretty crabby, because I don't really understand how I RMAed my perfectly functioning TF (with slightly defective screen) and I now have a completely non-functioning TF with a perfect screen. (I guess they fixed the problem?) WTF were they even messing with the USB port for anyway? Anyway, I never was able to nvflash it back to stock, except I did manage to get it to work finally by holding the USB cable at its base next to the TF carefully (and before anyone says it's the cable, tried several, it is not) but then it interrupted halfway through and would not restart, and I'm pretty sure the tablet is a brick. Could someone correct me if I'm wrong - is there a way to restart the nvflash process if it has been interrupted partway through?

Either way, just thought I'd share this nightmare. I'm still pretty irritated with Asus, which is saying something, because I've always been kind of an Asus fangirl.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Rumbleweed:
you did not mention if is still not charging . If so could be the small switch inside. Search for not charging as there are several threads on opening TF and finding switch. If bat gets too low can effect flashing.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ndwatkins:
The battery was at about 88% when I flashed - now the TF won't do anything at all, including start the nvflash process over again. Terminal just throws an error and says something about not being able to restart because end point was not reached. (Not by the computer) I'm pretty sure it had nothing to do with having enough charge, it just won't connect properly.

Like I said though, doesn't matter much now, because the TF won't do anything. Won't go into APX mode or boot. I assume this is because the nvflash process interrupted halfway through. It won't let me restart it - get the error I mentioned. I assume I'm screwed, but was wondering if anyone knew a way to get it going again. I thought it was pretty impossible to brick a TF (like a Droid X) but I've never seen an nvflash (or an SBF) interrupted halfway through.

Edit: and yeah I have no idea if it'd charge like this or not, but somehow I doubt it :( Firmware = poof.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] uploder:
do you know which RMA facility it was shipped too? ive heard horror stories about the texas facility. just curious oh and i hope you get it fixed
[Eee Pad Transformer General] swaaye:
I have a ASUS G73 notebook that I had to RMA like a year ago for screen problems. It went to some place in Indiana. When I got it back it had an LCD with a deep gouge in it as if someone had taken a knife to it. So yeah who knows what the deal is with the companies ASUS outsources repair to.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ndwatkins:
Was indeed Texas. Gave them a call and the guy was like "Derp we think something might be wrong with the battery" and had me try turning it on, blah blah. Am shipping it back tomorrow. I don't feel particularly bad, since it wasn't my screwup, and it's not like I was a dumbass and was like I WILL FLASH AT 3% BATTERY LOLZ. There's clearly something messed up somehow with the connectors.

Anyway, I hope that it gets resolved soon. Being without it really sucks for school. I'm sure its just going to get there and they're not going to be able to turn it on either, no matter what they try. Makes me wish I would have just stuck with the dead pixels though, because I suppose if they do replace it, I'll end up with a B9O. :/

Edit: Thanks for commiserating with me anyway, guys - helps me feel a little better! :)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] funnycreature:
My coworker and I both had to RMA the dock to the TX facility and both docks came back with problems. I sent it back there yet another time but his was sent to CA. The turnaround time was amazing but the quality... not so much. It's on its way back to me though and tomorrow I'll know what they did this time.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] OlegYch_real:
Hi guys.

I've been using Qumo microSD card 16gb class 4 with un-rooted Galaxy S2 for a couple of weeks until some day the card just died.

I just deleted a file from card with totalcmd android app and it froze. After i rebooted the phone the card was no longer accessible. I also am not able to mount it in computer.

Thanks to warranty I've exchanged the card to the same one. But after working for just one week the same scenario happened.

I'm now going to try to exchange it for Kingston or Transcend card.

But I wonder maybe there is something wrong with the phone itself or maybe with totalcmd application?

Thanks, Oleg.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] lambstone:
I think your microsd card is crappy. This happens with some sd cards. Stick with those standard reputable brands like kingston, sandisk, lexar, transcend and you shouldn't have any problems. Just to be safe, you should perhaps change to another file explored. OI file manager is small in file size and fast.

I'm thinking about rooting my G2, currently running 2.3.4. I plan on using the method shown here:

http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Vision#Rooting_the_Vision_.28G2.2FDZ.29_and_DHD

But before I potentially brick my phone, as I am a COMPLETE noob, I was wondering if there are any topic I should read first. Things that will help me understand what I'm doing and how to fix common issues I may/will run into. I did some searching for noob guides but they were all phone specific, and I couldn't find anything specific to the G2 for noobs. A dictionary of terms, for example, would be very helpful. Any and all advice and links would be highly appreciate! Thanks in advance.

P.s. Sorry if this was asked a million times. I did search, as i mentioned, but searches yielded 50,000+ results and not much help.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dstylazz:
Generally IMO rooting is relatively safe, its more about what you do after rooting your phone where the potential to "brick" it comes about. I.E Flashing Radios ect..

There is plenty of guides going about the net for a whole range of phones, what i done when i decided i wanted to root my phone was read a few articles for my phone make/model and read them all again just to make sure i understood them as i was in a similar position to yourself with very little knowledge about rooting or flashing roms ect..

You should check out other sites as well as this one of course and find one that you feel you can understand, theunlockr.com (just browse the "how to" section for your phone) they have videos (But not all of them work) was a good one for me aswell as using google to look for videos. Another good site is androidforums and not forgetting XDA its self.

Good luck....

Aloha,

I have a HTC Legend with a borked usb port. I've tried a lot of things, but can't get it flashed. I can get temp root with Visionary+ r14. HBOOT is 1.01.00, ROM is WWE 3.15 original from HTC. The phone is a Vodafone NL branded one.

I've made a working goldcard (it works because when i attempt to flash it no longer complains about CID). I've tried flashing through recovery (update.zip) and fastboot (LEGEIMG.zip), both complain about signature verification after accepting and reading in the zip file.

Is there a way to get past that?

I leave gv open to receive messages(get notifacation in gv app n turn off notify in native and go sms apps to prevent triple notifies) but i use go sms to send texts out unless i get a text fail because service drops. Then i open gv to text thru 3gdata or wifi.

Get missed call messages also even tho my phone doesnt ring.
