Great

I googled "d30 case blocks signal", without even mentioning Htc Amaze even though I had problems with the Amaze. This thread came up as the first search. I also had problems with wifi when the back cover was off, it wouldnt even work.

Anyhow, this method is amazing. I also had problems with a lower wifi signal when I had the case on, so i had to take it off everytime I download something >5mb. Also my wifi signal would be 1-3 bars. I admit I was skeptical about this method at first. But after putting the foil on the back cover, my internet speed is blazing and i'm getting 3-4 bars in wifi everytime. I am able to download big files/games.

Thank you so much!

I just noticed my gps signal is a lot better now, i'm not sure if its because of this. I can get my location without using data or wifi in like 1-20seconds now.

Brilliant

Thanks button clicked! Even with the case i m gettin gr8 reception of wifi signals

yeah right but it wont short out the radio it will only increase the amount of signals n radiation

hi every one

I want to make external satellite Antenna for my cellphone ! But i can't find schematic circuit map of HTC Amaze 4G !

If you Have this or can find this, Please help me

thanks a lot:)

Works Like A Charm!!!

Thank you darll :good:;) It really did work. I can't thank you enough, since my room was blind spot in our house :) but now it is not ;)

Hey depkis, thank you for the tip, but please have proof, then say something. This Aluminum Foil ONLY boosts wifi, not antenna or operator signal. And here is a proof. Cover up your phone with Aluminum foil, then call it. What happens? Your operator says the number you are trying to call is not available, since it suffocates your operator signal and you have no antenna when you cover up your phone with Aluminum foil.

Conclusion : Aluminum foil boosts wifi signal, and amazingly it weakens the operator signal.

And if you think this radiation harm us, then we shouldn't go to Markets, Shops, Airports, etc. Well, to be honest, we shouldn't go anywhere because of wifi radiation.
[HTC Amaze 4G] chevycowboyusa:
Ok guys. Here's a little technical information for you.

And you can Google this if you don't believe me.

Cellular phones are fm transmitter/receivers.

Just like a walkie talkie and the radio in a car or the stereo system in a house. They all work off of a radio frequency to receive a broadcast radio "wave" that is transmitted thru a very high power transmitter. We are surrounded by these all the time.

We have an fm receiver in the phone.

That's how we can listen to local fm radio stations on or cell phones.

We also have a very low powered transmitter as well. It broadcasts at very low power, but high frequency.

There is a separate transmitter for Wi-Fi . Your Wi-Fi router in your house or local Starbucks or anywhere that you may be that is transmitting a Wi-Fi signal is also using a very low powered fm transmitter/receiver.

And guess what!? Bluetooth technology uses the same!

The Nextel ptt or push to talk function made the phone act just like a walkie talkie. Mostly because it is. Normal phones are continuous talk and receive.

There's a lot more technical stuff, I just wanted to clear up a few small things.

Oh, these aren't xray machines, they don't emit radiation like some may think.

If course it all depends on what you consider radiation. The Sun emits dangerous radiation. I work at a power plant that generates electricity. The wires that carry the electricity emit or radiate electrons.

Our poor underpowered batteries are not strong enough to do any damage.

And finally, just like when a car goes through a tunnel or into a valley, the radio waves cannot reach the radio. So you hear the low frequency static that it's emitted from everyday devices.

And as well, we lose reception due to small antennas inside the back case of our phone. So yeah, if you cover it with anything that will block the radio waves, poor or no cell signal reception.

If you haven't tried this app already, definitely give it a shot. So many features. It basically incorporates Titanium, Root Explorer, Voltage Control, SetCPU, SD Card Boost, ROM Manager, TMobile ThemeChooser (for CM7), Terminal Emulator, Ad Blocker, Rebooter, V6 Supercharger, Autokiller, Font Installer, Custom Boot Animations, Battery Icon Changer, Boot Logo Changer, and probably several other common Root apps all-in-one. You can mess with Build.prop tweaks, vm heapsize, sysctl tweaks, and more. AND it lets you Apply any changes you make on Boot.

And the best part.....ALL FREE!!!! (though there is a donate version, not sure what the extra features are - but all I mentioned above is in free version)

Let me know what you think:

ROM Toolbox Market Link

Check out Imoseyon's recommended settings/tweaks as well here.
[Epic 4G Apps] b_fizzle:
great app

Thanks for the tip...I just got it and MAN is it amazing! I'll play around with it some more, but if it holds up...I'll buy the donate version. Really good app!
[Epic 4G Apps] rkcrawl:

[Epic 4G Apps] FrankyFiggz27:
what other things can you set at boot in the paid version that you can't in the free version? cuz u can set governor, sd card read speed, and other things at boot for free..
[Epic 4G Apps] FrankyFiggz27:
possibly a result of some tweaks i just made using Rom Toolbox, I'm flying right now. Faster than ever. Here's what I changed, just in case anyone can point out if I did anything bad:

Auto memory manager

6,8,24,30,40,50 (same as Aggressive 1 settings in V6 Supercharger)

vm heap size = 32

sd boost = 3072

Min Free KBytes = 4096

Dirty Ratio = 90

Dirty Background Ratio = 70

VFS Cache Pressure = 5

Oom Kill Allocating Task - SET ON

Applied everything at boot, obviously. I did a little research on what to change these values to, and so far these values have definitely sped me up considerably.

How has battery life been with those settings?
[Epic 4G Apps] FrankyFiggz27:
Great so far. The improved performance is even more noticeable, however. only thing you might want to change, if you know what it is, is the oom kill allocating task setting. a lot of people seem to leave it off, but from what i understood it did, keeping it on should save more battery and just operate more efficiently (makes the killing off of tasks to regain ram less random). so far there's been no downside to having it on. also, you might want to test out putting the vfa cache pressure setting to 1. many people do that, too.

[Epic 4G Apps] IronReaver17:
I think you're in the wrong forum
[Epic 4G Apps] zanderman112:
Well, he did make the change with Rom Toolbox. To the guy with the battery issue, I think you need to be on a deodexed rom to change the battery.
[Epic 4G Apps] ashbuly:
WOW!!! The speed change is amazing!!!! hard to believe that just a few tweaks did that!
[Epic 4G Apps] Zeinzu:
Bought the pro version of this. Tried to change battery icon and it froze on boot logo on reboot. Tried to refund and it won't refund. Will be emailing the developer.

[Epic 4G Apps] Zeinzu:
Yea... don't get me wrong I'm sure all the functions work great, and it's not like I tried anything else with it. Having one freeze was enough for me to stick with the ways of doing things that I know I never have issues with. But knowing me I'll just keep the paid version and try again at some later date. Maybe something just glitched during the reboot.
[Epic 4G Apps] hayzooos:
Not sure if this will help, but I have the pro version as well and was able to successfully change the battery icon. I liked having the number off to the side so since I have the ICS theme on my phone, I used that battery icon. I think it's 'Bar Ice Cream Sandwich'.
[Epic 4G Apps] Zeinzu:
That's the one that crashed me.
[Epic 4G Apps] hayzooos:
I don't think it will make a huge difference, but I'm running Legendary 2.1 with the ICS theme and ShadowKernel 1.0.3+.

Is it possible that battery mod isn't playing nice with something you have going on, like another tweak or something in a different theme? I've seen a few of your posts and you certainly seem knowledgeable, so you probably have a better idea what the issue is than I do. Just wanted to throw that out there in hopes it could be of help.
[Epic 4G Apps] ashbuly:

Must say, this app is awesome!!! Well worth the $5.00 cost of pro. Highly recommend this for everyone that wants control over there rooted and rom'd device!!

Hi everyone ! I was wondering if the themes work only on CM7 or they work with any rooted rom...

I don't have CM7 on my device but I can see the theme list...

please let me know :)
[Epic 4G Apps] flastnoles11:
No the themes in rom toolbox will not work unless you have the theme chooser...
[Epic 4G Apps] moss20:
theme chooser is only for CM7 right ?
[Epic 4G Apps] MДЯCЦSДИT:
Yes. And cm7 based roms. Maybe some T-Mobile phones stock.
[Epic 4G Apps] moss20:
thanks...but I don't understand why there's 2 section for themes in rom toolbox

Theme Manager

Theme Chooser Theme

can someone tell me why ?
[Epic 4G Apps] ac16313:
My guess would be "theme manager" is a .zip theme manager for flashable themes.

And theme chooser is for cm7 for use with the theme chooser.

[Epic 4G Apps] MultiLockOn:
At first I thought the app was wonderful, but upon further investigation I found it to be more harmful than anything. The second I change any of the settings within ROM Toolbox, be it to block ads or changing the applications to start at boot, my battery begins to drain. Normally I can get around 3 days out of my phone, using a little more than 30% per day with moderate texting, small internet usage, etc. But after messing with any of the options on the this app I'll be lucky if it'll last through the day. It drops 3 or 4 percent an hour with barely any usage. I thought I was imagining things at first so I restored my phone and recalibrated my battery and it was great again. Then I attempted changing a different option in ROM Toolbox, and the same thing happened. I repeated this process 4 times, where I reached the conclusion that it was a waste of money. I wanted this app to save my battery, not use more :( Anyone else notice anything like this?

Doing a nandroid backup right now. When it's done, I'll apply these settings. Looks pretty bad-ass, though. I hope it's worth it :)

---------- Post added at 02:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:42 PM ----------

I hope I didn't miss it if you already told us, but where in ROM Toolbox do you access the settings for VFS Cache Pressure and oom kill allocating task setting, etc? I can't seem to find those. I have the Free version. Are you using the Paid version?
[Epic 4G Apps] ashbuly:
Performance, kernel tweaks, sysctl conf
[Epic 4G Apps] GRK4G63:
Ah hah....but after I tap on "Kernel Tweaks" I get a "Pro Version Only" message.

Oh well, I believe this app is definitely worth it, so I'll be buying the real deal soon, regardless.

On the other hand....if I just use the root browser to navigate to /system/etc ...couldn't I just add those values to the sysctl.conf file if they aren't in there already?
[Epic 4G Apps] ashbuly:
Absolutely! I definetely recommend buying the full version of this and Titanium Backup. So worth the money.
[Epic 4G Apps] koop1955:
Could you have transposed the values for Dirty Background Ratio and VFS Cache Pressure, possibly? Seems like it should 5 and 70, not 70 and 5.

Thanks.
[Epic 4G Apps] m5james:
I've used this app for about 2 weeks, and while it did some cool things, it'd never retain ANY setting after a reboot. CPU was always back down to 1000k from the 1500 I had it at before, SD read speed was at 128k vs the 2048 I preferred. I've had two different versions, one that came w/ my currently Legendary RC 2.2 ROM, then another I downloaded from Mobilism. Neither version retained anything after a reboot. Today I tried downloading it from the Market and it says that it's not compatible w/ the Epic and wouldn't even allow me to download it. Great app, but if I have to refresh the settings everytime, I may as well stick with SetCPU and flash an SD speed.zip to retain my settings.
[Epic 4G Apps] solitarywarrior1:
Sounds awesome, i'll definitely be giving it a try
[Epic 4G Apps] Cartmanz:
Love this app
[Epic 4G Apps] FrankyFiggz27:
nah that's right. i'm going by Imoseyon's recommended values that he uses on the Droid X. Sounds pretty knowledgeable in the area. only thing i changed a bit was the vfs cache pressure. If you're willing to do manual flushes every so often, which I'm not, he recommends you push it down to 1. If you NEVER flush, he recommends it at 20. Since I reboot quite often (every day), figured 5 was a good setting for me.

It can probably be ported to Gingerbread, but they are using some of the new Ice Cream Sandwich APIs so it is going to take some work. Some things like widget resize, widget preview and animation stuff are not available in Gingerbread so it might not be possible to port all functionality.

Is it that vegacomb doesnt support loop devices:? Or am i missing something else? Ive checked and i have busybox installed and working correctly, but that doesnt seem to have changed anything?

Thoughts?
[Vega General] tomh235:
The vega does support loop devices, infact I have that setup running on my vega on vegacomb right now!

In order to get it working download the new scripts from the ubuntu on xoom section of the androlinux site, that worked for me fine!

Bear in mind, the version of ubuntu supplied in the image file is something like 9.10 which is very old, and the image is only 2gb which doesn't leave enough space for updating. Consider following their guide for building your own image.

Anyway, best of luck, I had to get over a few problems when installing it myself, but that may have been related to my setup, so if you have any problems I will keep an eye on this thread!

Happy Ubuntuing :D
[Vega General] geekyhawkes:
Thanks for the reply, I will try the xoom scripts and see how I get on. I saw the section about building my own but wanted to try and easy 9.10 install first before building my own xubuntu 11.10. Il let you knw how I get on

Could you post your bootubuntu script up please?

I have tried lots of different loop device numbers but am getting no where!
