[General Questions and Answers] tylerwatt12:
Has anyone noticed the jump from 512MB of ram to 1GB? I think now is the perfect time to upgrade. The RAM combined with the processor Specs are evolving quickly. But i think the amount of ram we see in android phones will bank at 1GB for a while. Until android apps find a way to fill up that memory. Even android tablets don't fully use 1GB of the RAM they have. This means customers will be satisfied for quite a while with 1GB of ram. and in return, longer upgrade lifetime. I honestly don't see android phones with 2GB of RAM coming soon so right now would be the perfect time.

And yes, processors may evolve but i think they aren't going to be much faster or have more cores until new battery technology is found that can pack 2-3 amps per battery.

In conclusion, Phones

should

stay at 1GB RAM and 1.5GHz Dual-Core for a while

What do you think?
[General Questions and Answers] 4ktvs:
I think the phone's are very good now and way better then the 1GZ and RAM phones, but I don't think they will stop at 2cores/1.5gz. I got my SGS2, becuase it was the first smart phone that I liked and it takes alot to make me pay 600 for a phone.

I would say that Smart phone will likely start to slow down a bit like PC have soon.
[General Questions and Answers] tylerwatt12:
That's what i forgot to mention

Buying a phone with 2GB of ram is like buying a netbook.

Soon laptops/netbooks will meet the android phone
[General Questions and Answers] AllGamer:
as soon as the Quad cores hits the streets you'll most likely see 2GB RAM and newer version of ICS 4.x that will use up all that memory

our phones are turning more and more into a portable PC ;)

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bnuts:
I have combed these threads as hard as possible but still can't find a clear answer/fix.

I had a custom rom installed a while back, and it started freezing and not coming out of sleep mode. It has done this with asus official rom as well. Is there a specific process to wiping and installing the correct rom so this won't be an issue. It was running fine for at least 2 months before it started doing this and I can't seem to reverse this. I don't care if i have a custom rom or official, i just want my transformer to be used again!

thanks!

I'm really not a noob to flashing ROMs, in fact, I got pretty good at it with my Evo before I upgraded to the Galaxy 2.

So I got the phone rooted using Odin, now I need to install Clockworkmod recovery so I can flash some custom ROM's. Everytime I install clockworkmod using Odin, when my phone reboots, I can't get service, and the buttons on the bottom aren't working. The search button now turns into the menu key.

So how can I get this working right? Do I need clockworkmod to be able to install custom ROM's? Is there another way to install clockworkmod aside from using Odin? Because Odin just isn't working.

Any help is appreciated.

for apps that aren't designed for honeycomb a icon (four arrows pointing away from each other) should show up in the status bar in the bottom right. Tap that and select 'stretch to fill screen'.
[TouchPad General] lixfejbarrera:
Sorry if this has been mentioned before, but I looked and searched many times and has not found any details.

I have ready countless forums and websites saying that it is not possible to port over a honeycomb rom to the TouchPad because Google has not released the source code. I owned a Viewsonic G-Tablet and I had flashed a Honeycomb Rom and it was pretty stable. Even the Nook Color has a Honeycomb port. Why does the G-Tablet and the Nook Color have the ability to run honeycomb, but not the Touchpad.

Just a question and maybe some of the devs can look into this and maybe succefully port honeycomb onto the TouchPad! :)
[TouchPad General] Gvndeb60:
We are waiting on you to port it......thanks!
[TouchPad General] lixfejbarrera:
I am not any type of dev. Hence this question I posted.
[TouchPad General] Stargazer418:
Just wait a little while for Ice Cream Sandwich, which will be much better than Honeycomb.
[TouchPad General] ivanmmj:
It's not that it's impossible to. It's that it's a pain, it tends to be broken, and with ICS around the corner, there is no reason to waste the effort.
[TouchPad General] BrianDigital:
I had a nook color it didnt run honeycomb it ran the sdk emulator and it was not good

Dont worry thr devs who are wotking on cm7 are nit tryung to get one over on u by using gingerbread
[TouchPad General] Jotokun:
This. The Honeycomb roms for the Nook and other tablets are hacked together from the SDK, so they're not optimized for the device they're running on. Since there's no source, issues cant be (comparably) easily fixed. And with that in mind, you need a good working Android base which doesnt yet exist for the touchpad since CM is (rightfully) withholding source due to its alpha status.

Even if we did have CM source, the ICS source release is just around the corner. There's no point in doing it since the work wouldnt translate and just be wasted.

Wait for the ICS source to drop if you want ICS.
[TouchPad General] knightnz:
All Honeycomb ports are hacks because Google has never released the full source for it.

The Touchpad _could_ run Honeycomb, but as the only development for it is CM7, which is gingerbread based currently, that's what you get.

If you can find some people who want to sink the time into hacking Honeycomb onto it, then you could have it, but I doubt anyone is going to want to bother given that ICS source is due in the next couple of months and with any luck we'll get a CM8 port instead of a half-assed Honeycomb.
[TouchPad General] Meadow_Muncher:
CM9 you mean;-) CM8 has been kept open for Honeycomb specifically, so the next CM will be CM9 I read somewhere.
[TouchPad General] robrob777:
I think HD2 is able to boot Honeycomb too, but it never got stable.

Yeah I think he was pointing out the fact that if you want it go make it. I have to say though seriously?

[TouchPad General] RojasTKD:
First, the nook and g-tablet ARE Android devices to being with.

Second, it took some time to get the above devices to "run" Honeycomb.

Third, neither is completely functional with Honeycomb.

Lastly, if you really really want Android your best is probably to get an Android device. I also have a g-tablet and with custom ROM that made it mostly functional, it was never 100% and issue free. I was never completely satisfied until I got an real Android device (Asus Transformer).

Being able to dual boot the Touchpad with a functional Android OS would be nice. But personally I got it to try out WebOS and have something different.

You will not be directly connected to the antenna amplification section of the phone.So it would essentially pointless,But just for s#@ts and giggles,You could make one!!!!! The only jack I would try it on is the 3.5mm minijack!!! Like I said you will not be connected directly to the phones antenna but you may get a phantom effect and you'll also get noise!! I know where your trying to go with this:cool: but there's too many variables to get what your looking for! It would be nice though!

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SirRomie:
I have flashed official roms several times, but only wiped data once because of a bootloop when I went back to an older firmware. The firmwares have always worked fine for me, I did have to clear data on some apps usually, but generally everything seemed to work fine.

I was wondering if most people on this forum wipe their data and use something like titanium backup to both back up and restore their data. I am mainly concerned about games, the rest of my data is easy to set up if I lose it all. The dilemma I have here is if I should root or not. I have heard that once you flash you cannot receive updates via KIES or OTA so I am stuck flashing which isn't a big deal, but I never intended to root.

I would really like to be able to just flash, clear data on some apps, and have everything work fine. Will this work every time? Or is that hard to predict? I also want to know if there is a non-root method to save game saves to an sd card or back them up using some other method.

Anyway, I am interested in everyone's thoughts. :-)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droidphile:
What are you trying to say? !

You talking about flashing official firmwares? or custom roms?

Root is required for titanium backup to work.

If you're flashing any official firmware you still can receive kies updates.

Get root! It's nice to be a superuser and enjoy the sheer possibilities that our gs2 offers.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] s0v3r3ign69:
Hello, my P500 is not detectable any more by any computer.

The usb charging is working but cannot be detected as a hardware.

I had this problem since I bought the phone. Once in a while my Optimus One was not detected by my computer, but I though is a driver related problem. Now is a permanent problem, no matter I do I cannot connect the phone to the computer. I made some research on the internet, inlcuding this forum a lot, and I found that is a hardware problem and I must return it to warranty!

Here comes my second problem:

I rooted the phone. I need to remove any trace of rooting to return it to warranty, but how?

My phone has a 2.3.3 version of Android and I rooted with the following method (the only one has worked for me): I downloaded su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed.zip and install it using clockwork mode -> Install zip function! After that a SUPERUSER icon apeared on my applications but not a removal possibility!

I tried to delete de apk file using Root Explorer, but it says that is a protected program!

Is there any way to install a new firmware from the SD card? I have clockwork recovery instaled on the phone. Is there any way I can write a firmware from SD with any recovery software? How?

If is not possible, how can I remove the Superuser and make it ready to send it back to warranty?

Thanks!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] s0v3r3ign69:
Ok, I found a way to remove Superuser. I installed GingerBreak and choose the Unroot option! Is simple, but is strange because my phone cannot be rooted with this software, only unrooted!

However I ended up with another problem! How do I remove Clockwork mode? I tried to flash some "so-called" recovery.img for my phone but not a chance!

I rooted back my phone to have a better control. Any idea on how do I remove clockwork mod? I don't have a back-up image of my original ROM or something.

[TouchPad General] tbodary:
I'm mainly wanting the Honeycomb Gmail layout and hopefully a similar layout for reader and Docs (which docs doesnt work at all right now). So my guess is we need to make the app think that we have Honeycomb installed. So is there any way to do this? It would be kind of like a user agent option that browsers have.
[TouchPad General] ivanmmj:
It's much more complicated than that, unfortunately. When you spoof the API level, the apps will still call the Honeycomb API's. When it can't find the API's or if it calls an API that has changed, it will force close.
[TouchPad General] tbodary:
So would there be any easy way to get the Gmail and Reader Honeycomb versions running on the Touchpad?
[TouchPad General] Flippy125:
Waiting for a port of 4.0 is an easy way. Spoofing Honeycomb would cause nothing but problems
[TouchPad General] SpikeyPsyche:
What we have here is a failure to communicate...
[TouchPad General] Treello:
So in every operating system there are API/Librarys however you want to term it. What they are is a common set of functions or ways of doing something that programs can use so the developer of said program does not have the recreate the wheel EVERY time they make a program. Thats how we have so many apps in the market.

Now Honeycomb and Gingerbread have very different API/Library's from each other. So what that means is if you were to install the gmail app form honeycomb and "trick" it into actually running what will happen is the program will ask the OS "Okay i need this set of instructions so i can execute" and the OS will reply "WHAT THE **** ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT HOMEBOY YOU BE STRAIGHT TRIPPIN BOO" and will promptly shoot that app in the face and will result in a force close.

So the only way to fix that would be to have all the honeycomb api/librarys. We don't actually have a good way of making that into the tablet because the sorce has not been released. All we have is and SDK which helps us make honeycomb apps but not run them on other devices.

hope that helps... i may be a little wrong in explaining but it should be roughly accurate
[TouchPad General] yareally:
Trying to run an app made for honeycomb on gingerbread is like asking if you can use the calculator app made for windows 7 in windows xp (or the paint app).
