Thanks a lot, guess I'm gonna have a fun playing with my phone tonight lol.

before i flash adrenaline am i supposed to wipe anything?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steelerfnpeter:
Rooting doesn't improve battery life. usually a custom kernel or rom will improve battery life. It all depends what you are running in the background. With Nil's Gingersense 3.5 (2.2) and tiny's latest kernel I am getting unbelievable battery life. This is in part to how well both of these things work together along with the removal of all the bloatware. I have found that if you run Yahoo IM, it tends to kill your battery faster as well. Make sure to set most of your sync options to manual or every few hours as well. It won't impact your gmail or gtalk settings.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wayneb02:
I understood that just rooting wouldn't change a thing. I just miss worded it lol. I was already running cm7 and incredikernel. I just hadn't realized I had 2 apps running in the background killing my battery

[Nexus S General] NicholasQ:
I have seen people say before that you should wipe partitions a few times to ensure they are clean, so I made this zip for myself to make things quick and easy. This zip wipes boot, system, data and cache 5 times each. Whether there is truly a benefit to this I don't really know but I would rather just use it anyway as it is extremely quick.
[Nexus S General] info[]box1:
I can use this.. Thanks
[Nexus S General] tylercarter:
Will this wipe delvik?

yes it wipes everything. It's suited for a fresh clean rom install. If you flash this zip you must flash your new rom or your phone won't boot.

[General Questions and Answers] sagar_tiru2006:
Hi Guyz I am from India looking for a new phone within 10-12k INR ie about 200-250 USD. By doing a little bit of research for 5-6days i have narrowed my choices to a few phones.

Dell XCD35

LG Optimus One

HTC Wildfire

HTC Wildfire S

HTC Explorer

Samsung Galaxy Fit

Samsung Galaxy Ace

Please Suggest me which one of the following will be a good choice for me. First things first I should be able to install apps in Memory card. I think we need to root the device for it if i am not wrong (Please clear this doubt for me). Second the device should be choppy or laggy in terms of gaming too ... !!! If i get Android i will definitely play a lot of 3d Games.

HOPING TO GET MY DOUBTS CLEARED SOON !!!
[General Questions and Answers] OptimismPrime:
Going by the list of phones you are looking at, i would recommend 1 phone and take 2 into concideration.

Recommended:

Samsung Galaxy Ace

Alternatives:

HTC Wildfire S

LG Optimus One

There are essentialy 3 Factors that are important for you, they are:

Resolution -> a lot of apps simply will not install on phones that use 320x240 screens

CPU Clockspeed -> The Faster the CPU is, the faster applications like games will run

Amount of RAM -> The more RAM you have the better the phone will perform while multitasking

All of the phones you have listed are essentialy either older, and/or lower specced entry level phones. All of them are using older CPUs (ARM11 / ARMv6) and most of them are clocked at 600 MHz or even lower like The HTC Wildfire (528 MHz).

The exception here is the Samsung Galaxy Ace clocked at 800 Mhz, so it has the fastest hardware and should be the fastest out of all of them for gaming.

A lot of the phones you have listed have fairly little RAM by todays standards, often times only 256 MB

While the Galaxy Ace has 384 MB of Ram, the Optimus One and the Wildfire S both have 512 MB of Ram, but a slower 600 Mhz CPU.

IF you chose a phone with more RAM over the Galaxy Ace's faster CPU, i personaly would go with the Wildfire S, as it has superior build quality and is better supported by custom roms.

So the choice is essentialy yours:

Galaxy Ace

------------------

3.5 Inch Screen

800 Mhz CPU => Gaming

384 MB RAM

Wildfire S / Optimus One

--------------------------------------

3.2 Inch Screen

600 Mhz CPU

512 MB RAM => Multitasking
[General Questions and Answers] ashish04:
According to your requirements,you should go for Galaxy Ace. It's really a nice smartphone with mind blowing features. It can also provide you a nice gaming experience. I am personally using it an loving it a lot.

And this is not always necessary to root the device for installing apps on memory card. But in some cases, it is necessary (if manufacturer has programmed the device to download apps directly to phone memory). When it comes to rooting, then rooting is just like jailbreaking in Apple. A rooted android device breaks the limitations that are applied to it either by manufacturer or carrier. Following are some examples about What a rooted user can do:

1) Access the flash memory chip, which you need to do if you want to modify the Android OS or replace it with a customized version.

2) Make the apps on your phone run faster.

3) Remove pre-installed apps to free up space.

4) Turn the phone into a 3G/4G WI-Fi hotspot without paying an extra fee.

There are also many other reasons for rooting. But these are the most popular ones.
[General Questions and Answers] sagar_tiru2006:
So HTC Wildfire S or Samsung Galaxy Ace is it ..... Can any1 tell me how much of a diff. does 200MHz make in gaming. I mean is it noticable ????

"I Think i will go with SG Ace"
[General Questions and Answers] OptimismPrime:
Well, in this case it is a speed increase of 1/3 or 33%, just imagine how much higher your PC CPU would be clocked if it was 33% faster.

Go with the SG Ace ;)
[General Questions and Answers] con247:
If you are willing to install custom roms, I bet the wildfire S can be overclocked to run at a higher mhz.
[General Questions and Answers] sagar_tiru2006:
Well Even if i do plan to Install Custom ROM i dont think i will overclock the CPu ... so final decision is Galaxy Ace will purchase within 2-3weeks.

I just re-installed 2.3.4 and loaded eclipse 1.2 today. After I did this I noticed that I cannot find android central or droid life apps in the market. Also, it says that I cannot run google earth on my phone. Anyone else have these issues?
[Motorola Droid X2] Jeffmeister:
Did you wipe completely. Clear dalvik cache before installing?
[Motorola Droid X2] ashclepdia:
Never had those.issues at all

As Jeff asked....did u wipe?
[Motorola Droid X2] rbellis:
indeed I did. Anytime I install a ROM I always wipe the 4. the 3 you named and reset the battery stats. I was able to get google earth but still cannot find android central or droid life.

EDIT***

I just went to the android central site and scanned the QR code. Came up saying there were no matches in the market. I also tried to search for these apps before I installed eclipse after I loaded 2.3.4
[Motorola Droid X2] Robin M:
I haven't used Eclipse in a while, but my guess is that the problem has to do with changes that may have been made to the build.prop file. The Market is very sensitive to several of the build.prop parameters when deciding what apps to show you.
[Motorola Droid X2] ashclepdia:
Every single eclipse I have run(almost all of em) :including ones where people say they can't find certain apps I have had no trouble locating and installing those apps.

I feel like most of these are either market bugs or they have made edits to their phones that they just plain forgot about
[Motorola Droid X2] rbellis:
I get what you are saying, but wouldn't doing the system wipe after sbf'ing to 2.3.4 resolve that issue?

Hi,

There is any way to capture HTTPS Decrypted data on a ROOTED device? I want to check what my phone is sending to app developer servers...

Thanks.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deep_blue_:
Hi,

couldn't imagine there's an easy way to do it, naturally. A passive MITM using tcpdump won't work AFAIK, but here are some other ideas (without thinking in detail):

1. active MITM

You'd need to have some kind of proxy on your phone acting as a SSL-server for the app and a SSL-client for the original server. But this only works, if the app is really lazy regarding security, which is pretty much unlikely. (I wouldn't even try it)

2. hooking into SSL

To really read end-to-end-encryption, you need to be one of these 'ends', so you could somehow try to modify the libraries responsible for en/decryption (OpenSSL?) and log the data somewhere. (much work, but promising)

3. using strace

You could try to use strace (maybe there's an Android-version out there) with the apps process, maybe there's some readable data. (I'd try this first)

BR,

deep blue
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SkzBR:
Hi,

I'm searching how to use strace if it can help... if someone know some other way, i'do like.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deep_blue_:
Hi,

I just did a test observing the browser with strace...unfortunately it doesn't help, you can also only see encrypted stuff there, if SSL is used.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CreepyE:
Hey everyone. Im running the newest bulletproof miui and i downloaded alt drawer since miui doesnt have an app drawer. I hid almost all my apps so their only accessible through alt drawer but i cant seem to hide things like calculator, spare parts voice dialer, etc. I have to keep them in a folder to try to clean up the homescreen. Is their any way to hide these as access control doesnt seem to give me the option? i dont want to install a 3rd party launcher as i try to keep things minimal and fast. Help?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kueber:
I really don't think that an app drawer application is necessary, since you can just create a miui folder, name it "app drawer" and pull it to the main-bar at the bottom. You even can sort it by name or usage - It will behave just like sense's (2.0) app drawer.

Well, system apps can't be removed in miui - unless you change the launcher, I think.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:
it's a pain in the arse to put the sticker on, zagg is basically a sticker for the lack of better analogy

it's not easy to apply, and if you make a mistake, it takes a lot of work to fix it right

the feel of the rubber like sticker makes it really bad to do things naturally on the screen, if you apply it to the screen as well

now all that was in relation to their skins protection stuff

your Zagg-plug is a whole different level, so you might get lucky and it might actually just works right.

it's just a big chunk of portable battery after all, is hard to go wrong with that ;)
