[Motorola Photon 4G] fester30:
I could be wrong, but wouldn't that only free up storage space on the 3GB portion of the internal memory already set aside for app space? In the computer world, freeing up memory means freeing up RAM. You have 1GB of RAM that is used by apps and system processes that are either open or working in the background. Freeing up the RAM does help things move more smoothly, which is what V6 Supercharger is supposed to help do. Moving apps to the SD Card won't free that up, and in fact can slow things down whenever the phone needs to access the SD Card (if you're using an external card) to retrieve something from the app files.
[Motorola Photon 4G] .cruiser:
The Photon has something called the Media Area. Which is where you can move some of the apps to. I wasn't referring to the SD card. I don't think the Photon allows shifting apps to the SD card.
[Motorola Photon 4G] onree:
I have both of these problems too. I do have a LOT of apps installed, and I wonder if that's related.
[Motorola Photon 4G] kennypow3rs:
First of all "Threats" in your OP are pretty childish. No one cares if you have your own thread closed :rolls eyes:

Second, I'm sorry you're having issues but maybe you should start from scratch with absolutely no mods. Who gives a **** about a battery mod anyways?

Third, I'm stock rooted (not unlocked) and my phone only had the wifi issue nut that was before I updated to the latest sbf. No issues here whatsoever just flawless...

There's no way all those phones have that many issues me thinks this all points to user error. Maybe you should go back to a dumb phone or a blackberry because you clearly aren't equipped to handle the photon. Motorola doesn't make bad hardware like HTC; every HTC phone I've owned I had more than one because of HTC's cheap ass ****. I just can't see moto sending you multiple bad phones.

Good day sir
[Motorola Photon 4G] dsims7_2000:
OK, I have have had only 2 issues since I got this. 1. I had SERIOUS battery issues a few months back. I mean it would drain in a matter of a few hours. And not only that, I can leave it charged for 6 hours and only get 60% or so. This lasted about 10 days and disappeared.

The only other issue I have (and continue to have), about once a week it starts running S-L-O-W!! A reboot fixes it BUT............I blame this on me. I have SPB 3D Shell and I have @ 80 App's and trust me, I use them daily (news, stocks, e-mail, youtube, facebook, yahoo, my bank, my stocks, kindle reader, my pilot crap (learning to fly), college crap, pictures, video, streaming, radio, music......)I think a good memory booster will help?

Im happy!
[Motorola Photon 4G] kennypow3rs:
Try this app and set it to "Fast Mode". Also, SPB 3D isn't really optimized for the photon at least I don't think it is. Plus its laggy as **** compared to launcher pro, qq launcher, and adw EX. In other words spb shell sucks balls...
[Motorola Photon 4G] jokersax11:
Download an app called cache cleaner from the market. You have to be root but running that app and setting it for daily or every other day will fix your issues
[Motorola Photon 4G] jokersax11:
Please no, i know it feels like its working but it isnt. I have 200+ apps and no memory tweaks at all. My phone stays fast. The only time it slows down is when the app cache (different from the cache partition in cwm) gets big. I use an app called cache cleaner that cleans up app cache. I also exclude certain apps from getting cleaned like maps. If you properly manage your phone you will have great results. The memory issues isnt with android its with the apps themselves. Many app developers make apps and think people will only run that one app so thats how its designed. Dont use task killers unless a certain app is going haywire. Then just uninstall that app or complain. Dont use memory apps or tweaks that force as much memory to stay free as possible. This is linux unused memory is wasted memory. Just try it. Android is smarter than you think and youll agree soon enough
[Motorola Photon 4G] sjamie:
I've tried everything but cleaning my cache. I'll give app cache cleaner a try if I run into more issues. Thanks for the suggestion and explanation, joker!

Btw, any reason why you prefer app cache cleaner over similar apps like "1Tap Cleaner", "Cache Clear", "Quick Cache Cleaner", etc?
[Motorola Photon 4G] deedscreen:
I have far over 200 apps myself, and the Sprint Guy told me not to have anything on my phone at all, as if that is the reason my keyboard keep locking up, and the device slows down. Well, getting my first replacement from Motorola soon. I've been through a bunch with Sprint. Hopefully this will be my last replacement. (Also happy because there are two dings on the digitizer, not the gorilla glass, and this INFLAMES my OCD, or CDO if you'd like. lol.)

EDIT: I use no memory killer, and this phone runs fast and awesomly, (when it is working properly).
[Motorola Photon 4G] sjamie:
Unfortunately, this only made things better for 2 days and not even a full month!

I think I'll try one of joker's Roms now to see if that helps.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cpgeek:
I know that there are some devices (specifically the nook color) that can boot from MicroSD. I was just curious if it would be possible to do the same on the samsung galaxy tab 7 (original gsm) and if so, how one would go about setting that up.

if anyone could point me to references, that would be awesome!

Thanks!
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmz:
There is an app out there called boot manager. It currently works on most htc devices but I am in contact with them trying to get something setup for the tab. Because of the way each company handles the kernel it is an issue. So not promising its possible but it is on the heads of some people.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lardman:
Yes it's certainly possible to do, though we lack uboot so you'd need to modify the init script in the initramfs to start Android init on a different root device.

What do you have in mind?

[Wildfire Themes and Apps] Justice™:
Looks quite nice, but very gimmicky. Would probably end up disabling the animations and such to get to apps faster.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] Alex_GP:
Yeah, I mean, these animations are nice and all, but after a week or so you`d be bored of them and just disable them all in order to access stuff faster.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] Slymobi:
Lol probably.

But!!!! With a newer higher spec phone it would be fast enough anyways with it. :) maybe oneday.!!!!

[General Questions and Answers] aanarchyy:
I have a MT4GS and i quite regularly tether my windows 7 netbook to it. It works good, but each time i tether it, it creates a new network connection. It's not a huge issue, but its getting a little annoying how it asks each time and im not sure if there is some cap of how many networks i can have in this thing before it fills up.

My question is, where can i get a list of all these networks it has created, and how do i delete them?
[General Questions and Answers] kevnuke:
There's a thread from earlier this year on March 11 in the Nexus One forum for this same issue.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=645515

I have exactly the same issue on Windows 7 Professional when tethering with my Samsung Captivate. I believe it is a Windows 7 issue. I'm guessing some kind of ID gets changed on the phone either when you reboot it or roam from one tower to another that makes it think it's a different device, or maybe something gets reset in Windows.

I'm going to poke around the Microsoft Web site and see if there is a fix for it on the Windows side of things.

[Verizon Droid Charge] cmdrfrog:
The most amazing thing about the Samsung i510 is that even with the Rezound, Bionic, Nexus, and Razr out or on the horizon it’s hardware is still pretty damn good. Dollar for dollar, it is arguably the best screen out there and the CPU is quite adequate. The RAM is a little low, but again it’s adequate. I even really like the physical buttons and the Battery is ample (from a physical perspective).

The software! It’s all the software. I don’t think I will get a Nexus when it first comes out because I’m sure 15 days after I have a Nexus in hand Samsung will finally deliver 2.3.6 OTA with source. There’s no reason that this phone can’t become a great performer, sip slowly at battery all day long, and get CM9 in 2012 - but the patience VZW and Samsung asks of us is excruciating!
[Verizon Droid Charge] blueis300:
I agree I usually trade phones as soon as possible and my wife said no or what are you going to get next. I said actually Im happy with this phone atleast for awhile. Not like I was before and trading or buying as soon as I can. In between now and next year I see a possible dramatic advance at even what is coming out this year.
[Verizon Droid Charge] chrstdvd:
I totally agree. But I am not looking to upgrade to GB. It sucked on my D2 and I will not download it on the Charge. I just keep upgrading the Modem software on the Charge. That makes a big difference for me with each new software update.
[Verizon Droid Charge] shrike1978:
GB is better than Froyo in every way on this phone. I had constant lockups and random reboots under Froyo, but everything is smooth as silk under GB. You can't compare two completely different pieces of hardware and two different software builds to each other in terms of performance. I tried at one point to go back to EE4 and I was back EP1 within two days, because by that point, EE4 was just painful to use.
[Verizon Droid Charge] xdadevnube:
Currently on EP1W and I think its great. I find that EP4P radios to seriously rock. I will upgrade to EP4P base soon depending on when we get the OTA update.

My phone is super-stable overclocked to 1.252 GHz. Seldom radio issues, good voice quality. I freeze all kinds of stuff with Titanium Backup. I generally have no issue with RAM, but don't play games... All my apps (150 user installed apps) are stored on internal memory for speed. I may upgrade the rather slow class 2 micro-SD card to a class 10 card though.

If you take some care of your setup, you will be rewarded with a great phone.

Current Setup:

Humble 4.22 EP1W

Imoseyon Kernel 3.1

Modem: EP4P

V6 Supercharger

3G Turbocharger

I/O Scheduler Changer (running noop)

Tegrak Overclock

Changed Vocoder to EVRC-B

Voodoo Control Plus

Voodoo Screen Tuner

Oh, by the way, am I the only one not not highly stoked about the Galaxy Nexus? My primary complaints are no Wolfson DAC, pentile display, curved glass, and no micro-SD slot. Also, it has the same GPU as the Charge, albeit clocked higher. I personally will wait for the Galaxy S 3 for HD SAMOLED+, but who knows what the audio hub will be (hoping its the Wolfson.)
[Verizon Droid Charge] davey11:
I used to think gb sucked after loading the earlier builds. Really buggy and laggy.

So I stuck with ee4 for the longest time.

After trying out the latest ep4 build, I completely changed my mind. Superior to froyo in every way.

[Verizon Droid Charge] nmeofdst8:
I was right there where you're at...then I went from stock to Humble 5.0...phone is now pretty frickin nice in my opinion
[Verizon Droid Charge] dman2275:
Latest GB release is smooth

I agree with all the posters here. I finally flashed 2.3.6 and what a difference it made. Lag is non-existent for me, battery life is much better, data drops have practically disappeared and phone is snappy. GPS still is slow and not very accurate. Download GPS Fix from the market and run it before you use GPS....problem mostly solved.

Overall, made this phone run the way it should have from day 1.

Those of you waiting for the release, don't. Follow the instructions and flash the new release. It is very easy and you will be glad you did !
[Verizon Droid Charge] Ted A:
Humble 4.22 and 5.0 are both based on GB. You can't tell me you don't experience the buzzing noise issue, can you? THAT to me is a show stopper. I don't care how fast the datarate is but this phone still needs to make calls reliably.

Tried every GB leak variants out there and none of them has that issue solved.

Have gone back to debloated EE4 with Imoseyon's latest kernel and the latest EP4P modem installed. Been very happy with it; man, it's fast, no lag, super stable, no issue with swypes 3.0's cursor jumping around like crazy when you're posting your post on forums (surely you all have gone nuts over that problem).
[Verizon Droid Charge] shrike1978:
I can tell you that. I don't have that issue. I'm on the phone between 30 minutes and 2 hours a day. I've heard it exactly once, ever.
[Verizon Droid Charge] jmorton10:
I am not on Humble, but I'm running a coredroid themed version of the 2.3.6 TBH leak with imoseyon 4.0 so it's basically the same thing as Humble.

To be totally fair, I do mostly texting & don't make a ton of phone calls but I have never once had a problem on a call. I talked to my boss yesterday for 45 minutes on a call & it worked just fine.

On the occasional calls I do get or make, this phone (for me anyway) is loud & clear & much better then any previous phone I have owned (& I have had a TON of phones)

[Verizon Droid Charge] JihadSquad:
You have a lemon.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Ted A:
Tons of posters on this forums have the same issue.

But I hope you're right. And I intend to prove your theory, hopefully soon. As soon as the GB OTA is out, I'll be demanding a replacement if the problem persists. With a Nexus perhaps, if I'm lucky. :p
[Verizon Droid Charge] Stratboy71:
Mind if I steal your build? I wanna try this out. How are you OC'ing the kernel? Just with Tegrak?
[Verizon Droid Charge] blueis300:
The noise just started happening on my wifes phone and she is bugging me about it.I dont really have the problem so was thinking of just re flashing radio files and see what happens.
[Verizon Droid Charge] jmorton10:
I think I have to agree on all counts. I was super excited about the Galaxy Nexus coming to VZ & had a standing order in with our VZ corporate rep telling her I will buy it as soon as you can get me one.

I am having serious second thoughts however. I am so incredibly happy with my latest Charge setup (2.3.6 TBH leak W/imoseyon 4.0, LPP Plus, Fuju tweaks, camera button mod, coredroid theme etc.etc.etc.) that I am beginning to realize that with the Galaxy other than the dual processor it would actually be a downgrade for me in a number of ways.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rikbrown:
Hi all,

Noticed the "Force GPU rendering" option under the Developer options which was off by default but is captioned "Use 2D hardware acceleration in applications". Is this advantageous to turn on? The few online resources I've found suggest it could be because it offloads all 2D graphics work onto the GPU instead of CPU. Having turned it on and played a bit I /might/ have noticed some more fluid animation, but could be a placebo effect.

Also, reckon this would have any impact on the battery life? (Desperately looking for ways to make this thing last through a day).

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dnlsmy:
It forces all apps to use the GPU to render themselves instead of using the CPU. This is more efficient and actually does improve the fluidity of the UI. To test it out, download the Twitter App from the marketplace. Try with and without Hardware acceleration. You should notice a definite improvement. My suggestion is to keep this option on. After Apps update themselves to use GPU rendering themselves (it's only one line of XML code) this option will be pointless. The option is already pointless for Google Apps, as they should all be updated already to use GPU rendering.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] player911:
Sweet. Anyone try running benchmark apps with it on? I'm trying to figure out if the SGSII hardware acceleration played any tricks on their benchmark scores (I've always wondered).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rikbrown:
Knew I was noticing some improvement in apps, including Twitter!

I have noticed a couple of apps so far that this option breaks:

Vouchercloud (doesn't display anything on screen)

Tiny Tower (crashes during load)

So beware, if you have this on and some apps crash or display strangely, try turning it off.

I'll be keeping it on unless I need to use one of those two apps though.

Thanks for the full explanation.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] case0:
Amazing tip, thanks! I loaded Twitter and noticed it was slow, then I remembered reading this thread before (read so many whilst waiting for it to be delivered) and tried it with this option turned on and it was perfectly smooth.

Cheers :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blunden:
That's a perfect example of why they didn't set it to default ON. If developers had actually followed the API there would be no problem but some seem to use a known side-effect of the old rendering model to skip some lines of codes for screen redraws. Google explained this in a Google IO talk.

For quadrant it seems to be give and take with the option forced on.

I read through all the suggested threads but didn't get a clear answer on my problem, so no lmgtfy...

I have a mytouch on tmobile and am able to turn off data, but still receive MMS.

Problem: I have a Infuse on ATT, when I turn the data off and receive a MMS it just sits there and says downloading - so I enable Data and it still sits there for hours and says downloading, I am not able to download the MMS. I have a data plan on t mobile and am aware that it works fine if I have data on all the time (which drains the battery like crazy).

Thanks in advance!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] koriotto:
Im not sure on stock ROM but yeah many custom ROMS have options for MMS.

You probably just have to go into Advanced settings and adjust to your needs.

Also check If your APN for MMS is correct since your on T-mobile and some roms dont Auto adjust APNs

2.-Input your T.mobile APN data

It's been like that from the days of my 8525, Tilt 2, Iphone 4, and Infuse.
