[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] homis:
I'm a bit lost on performance with the MT4GS. In all my testing so far I have been getting my best benchmark score with stock rom and stock kernel without overclocking. I've tested with multpile benchmark apps and consistantly get lower scores using custom roms and kernels even while overclocked up to 1.7 Ghz. The whole thing has me baffled at this point. Using quadrant advanced I average 2100 range with all stock, compared to 1800 average using custom and overclocking. To add to my confusion, my original mytouch 4G with single core is averaging 2800 in quadrant while only overclocked to 1.1 Ghz.

I must be doing something wrong, by all rights the slide should be scoring much much higher.

Does anyone have any ideas why I'm getting my bizarre results?

Thanks much everyone.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
Usually benchmark scores that are lower are better.

Not always, but in most cases this is true.

Quadrant didn't support dual-core processors, or well, or something if I remember right. I mostly ignored it when I was benchmarking things not long ago - wasn't working right on our phone.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Col.Kernel:
Say what you like about Sense, I'm not a fan of proprietary junk either, but they have the camera right on this one. There's zero shutter lag, and the camera has the features and response of a mid priced point & shoot. It's one of the best cameras in any phone, and would sell for a nice price even if there were no phone attached. And that is largely because of the Sense framework on the back end.

Because of that, I highly recommend UndeadK9's Senseless ROM. This ROM is an AOSP themed ROM but he has kept the Sense framework on the back end, but only where it benefits us. He is very sensitive to issues with the ROM and responds to (i.e. usually fixes) them very quickly. And he posts on here as if he doesn't have a life. :D

If you use his ROM tip the man, he deserves it.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] homis:
With quadrant i was getting better scores from my mytouch 4G, but if it is only using one core then the odd results make much more sense.

One thing that has had me confused is with custom roms and kernels on the slide, when I run benchmarks, my scores are about the same regardless of being overclocked or running stock.

Based on the scores, it looks like overclocking is having no effect. I can say that there are definitely performance increases with the slider regardless of what the benchmarks say.

I did try UndeadK9's new rubix rom, so far I'm very impressed. :-)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] icoman:
Imo there is nothing wrong with the stock rom. It has very few bugs and my phone scores 4650 on antutu. I was one of the first people to get the phone, online pre, and I got the anker battery. The new security update from tmo also gave me better 4g signal. I have only three gripes with the phone.

1. It doesn't run at 1.5ghz which it is fully capable of

2. You can't name homescreen folders

3. There is no true favorites

If you want the phone just to run cm7 vanilla don't buy the phone and get a newer gx2

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] anseio:
If you've got the HD2, which I assume you do, then all you need to do is install the dev_storagelock.cab from:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1250869

Send the cab, then open it in WP7. You should get a notice that the card is currently locked, and also be asked if you want to unlock it.

I also assume that you're doing this because you don't want to use WP7 anymore OR because you don't want to use the SD card in that WP7 device. In the event of the latter, your unlocking of the card will need to be followed by an immediate hard reset, where you halt the process in magldr and swap out the cards. If you don't hard reset, and you insert a different (or modified card), you'll get a memory error from WP7.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mdizzle9:
Can someone please point me to some info that explains why widgets break when the associated app is moved to the SD card? My company is about to release an Android app and some people in beta are complaining that we do not allow them to move it to the SD card.

I realize there are ways around this (link2sd, etc), but I don't think this is the answer I'm looking for in this situation. I have tried searching both XDA and Google and can't seem to find an explanation of what is exactly is going on that causes widgets to break.

Thanks for any help.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bkrodgers:
It's just the way it works. The short answer is that Android won't even show a widget in the list if the app has been moved to the SD.

There are a few reasons for that. For one, the home screen shows up on boot before applications that are on the SD have fully initialized. Some will be there, but some continue to load as the home screen comes up, I guess to make the phone feel like it's booting faster. Each app on the SD card is in an encrypted container that needs to be decrypted and mounted. Another factor is that the app disappears if the SD card is unmounted (either physically or by mounting it as USB storage).

Basically they would have needed to write a hook into the home screen app to handle re-initializing widgets as they become available again. They either just didn't do that, or they might have decided widgets are something that should always show up and not be subject to the state of the SD card.

It's not an ideal situation. On the one hand, there are some apps that have widgets that some users may not plan to use. In that case, I'd want the ability to move it as a user. You can certainly allow them to do that, but then the widget just disappears from the option list when they move it. It doesn't provide any warning saying "only do this if you don't plan to use the widget." So it's a catch-22 for developers. If they disable moving to SD, users who don't want to use the widget will be irritated. If the enable it, users who don't understand the ramifications will be confused and irritated. There's no ideal solution at this point.

There is no NetFlix for Canadians in marketplace but it's so easily available on AppStore. Why? Oh Canada!!

I just looked at that thread - it's pretty old (newest replies are from September, when it wasn't officially available).

[Eee Pad Transformer General] laslow:
They have Top Gear. That's all that matters to me!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] knoxploration:
Yeah, it was OK. I just couldn't justify the cost, when the TV stuff is so easy to see rerun on cable over and over, all day long. It's a shame, but once they doubled my price I cancelled Watch Instantly and went back to DVD-only.

It's hence rather annoying that, having removed the Netflix app (which helpfully doesn't let you manage your DVD queue), it's been forced back on me by the latest firmware when I don't have (and will never have) any use for it.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] wynand32:
Agreed. It's all the old backlog of TV shows I've missed that keep me on Netflix. Once I get caught up on those, I might quit the service completely.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] knoxploration:
It's going to get significantly worse, as well. Netflix lost their Starz deal, which means they'll be removing ~1,000 of their best movies from Watch Instantly as of early 2012.

The money they *were* paying for the Starz content (~$30 million per year for all ~1,000 movies together), they will instead be spending on Dreamworks content from 2013, priced at $30 million per year, PER MOVIE.

In other words, Netflix dropped 1,000 Sony and Disney movies through Starz, and used the same amount of money to pay for one single Dreamworks movie. And they'll be getting a grand total of three Dreamworks movies in 2013 -- which means they still need to find another $60 million worth of existing content that they can drop, to pay for the other two Dreamworks flicks.

Watch Instantly is rapidly spiraling down into a vortex of suck.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] player911:
I'm confused. Wasn't Netflix available on the iPhone/iPad first?

*EDIT*

Yup. OP says iPad>Transformer

Transformer has Netflix. Netflix on mobiles isn't that old. It was first released on Apple Products then slowly released to Android. Whats the big deal? We could watch Netflix even before it was "officially" supported.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] theraffman:
Yup, we could side load it pretty early on, ever since I have had my TF at least about 3 months. Im waiting for an official hulu+.

I bought most my employees ipad2s a few months back and fired one about a month ago so I had some time to play with a rooted ipad2. I must say that I was not impressed, I loved my TF more in just about every aspect. The only place the ipad was better was in battery life, but it also took 4 times as long to charge compared to my TF. Plus the TF paired with the dock leaves the ipad2 in the dust. I ended up giving the ipad2 to my church lol.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] carrrnuttt:
Not to mention that the recent tablet-specific UI update from Netflix came out on Android tablets first and it hasn't come out for iPads as of yet.

As for Hulu+, have you tried side-loading their app from a phone yet? I "harvested" the apk from my Glacier and installed it on my TF, and Hulu+ runs just fine on it. You just can't have any of the ad blockers running or your HOSTS file blocking anything.

Dear Users and Devs alike.

All mods can be found for the Evo 4g Sense 1.0 in The EVO Classic, by yours truly.

Premise

This thread will be a collection of mods that work for the EVO 4g with roms that are based on OTA releases.

The latest is 4.54, but, however, these mods will also work on 4.53 and some 4.24 roms.

These will not work on anything other than Sense 1.0, so please don't get flash happy and break your AOSP or CM7 build.

I will post flashable zips for Users, to be used in recovery.

I will also be posting the actual files, for Devs and chefs to include in their own roms.

Due to nature of odex roms, these mods will be for DEODEX roms only.

Any files posted will have CIQ removed.

All mods posted will be optimized with smali debloated

Please avoid asking questions, simply because these should be straightforward.

Thank you!

Disclaimer

As a general pearl of wisdom, no one is responsible for one's actions save for oneself.​

Devs - feel free to include these in your roms. I post them for you. I just request you link to this thread for reference. Thank you.

- I must say, so far everyone I've worked (and you know who you are), has been great about props. Thank you. -​
