After browsing here for quite a while, there are two things I see that aren't documented too much about our phones, and that is How to use the V6 Supercharger, and overclocking the ARM-Mali 400 (GPU). I shall discuss the latter first.

GPU OVERCLOCK:

To overclock the ARM-Mali 400, you will need a kernel that supports gpu clock control (Such as the LostKernel or Team Rouge's "Outlaw")

and a way to enter terminal commands (ADB, Terminal Emulator, SSH)

1. Load up ADB

2. Enter a shell

3. Type "cat /sys/devices/virtual/misc/gpu_clock_control/gpu_control" (Without the quotes)

4. This tell you the current clock speed, at a min and max. It should be 160 and 267

5. Type: "echo 267 310 >/sys/devices/virtual/misc/gpu_clock_control/gpu_control" (Without the quotes) [This changes the min to 267 and the max to 310]

6. Reboot

7. Enjoy!

-You can try other values, but I have not, so I would advise backing up before doing so-

{Thanks to chris41g at Android Central}

Next is using the V6 supercharger:

This is a longer procedure but worth it

You will need:

Busy Box (Version 1.8.2 ONLY) and V6_SuperCharger_for_Android-update9_beta_6.3.sh.pdf from (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=15948434#post15948434)

1. Go to market and install Script Manager

2. Rename V6_SuperCharger_for_Android-update9_beta_6.3.sh.pdf to V6_SuperCharger_for_Android-update9_beta_6.3.sh.txt

3. Open up Script Manager and navigate to where V6_SuperCharger_for_Android-update9_beta_6.3.sh.txt is on your phone

4. Click it and hit the button that has the root icon and hit run

6. Once it loads, it asks you for text scrolling speed, tap the screen to bring up the keyboard and enter 1,2,3 or 0 (I like 2)

7. It load up some more

8. There will be a prompt asking for options [1-27] enter: 9

9. Let it run

10. It will return you to the prompt when it's done

11. Now enter 26

12. The phone will reboot

13. Congrats, you have supercharged your phone!

{Thanks to zeppelinrox for his awesome script}

Have fun! :)

Very informative.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
I always ran V6 script on my OG Epic. I didn't think of trying it on this phone. Thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] piexil:
With these two things, I can get 32xx in quadrant on 1 GHz

4500+ on 1.504 GHz
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] >MR.T:
Thank you very much good Sir.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kain144000:
BusyBox is only showing versions 1.18.4 & 1.18.5. Those're the only ones w/ an 8 n 'em. How, pray tell, may I procure said version? lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Megatr0n.:
I don't understand why you'd want to overclock a phone if it doesn't have performance issues to begin with. As far as I've noticed, the GS2 has no trouble running anything. Why increase the power draw for no reason other than a higher benchmark score? On a desktop, overclocking can make sense since you don't have to worry about draining your battery, but the GS2 already has battery issues without increasing the voltage--so it seems kind of silly to be exacerbating that problem.

This isn't a criticism of people who enjoy overclocking, just a bemused observation.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wolfkstaag:
That's a joke, right? Right?

Don't mean to sound troll-ish, but... no. Just no. I'm not getting OMGAMAZING battery like some folks around here, but this phone does NOT in ANY way have battery issues.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Megatr0n.:
I didn't mean to say that the GS2 had awful battery life, just that it wasn't a low power device where increasing the power draw wouldn't make a big difference.

Regardless, I understand that whether or not someone overclocks their phone comes down to personal preference. So if you want to overclock, more power to you. :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] stretchwookie:
anyone have any issues/benefits from the GPU overclock? just wondering if your mileage has varied.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] piexil:
Some emulators run better. Such as n64oid

I was also able to run Modern Combat 2 with 16x Anti-aliasing. (Using ChainFire)

Use BusyBox installer in the market.
[HTC Titan] tai4de2:
AT&T-branded Titan. I was using it as a GoPhone. Today I joined AT&T formally, which brought with it a new SIM.

Now in the Marketplace, there is no 'AT&T Apps' section and I can't find any of the AT&T apps. I wanted to add the "my account" one.

I really would like to avoid resetting the phone just to get at this... Anyone have the XAP? Or know how to get my phone re-branded? Not sure what happened here.
[HTC Titan] jeremyshaw:
I'm guessing pulling the battery didn't work? (for a complete soft-reset).
[HTC Titan] pigue:
Factory reset

I also did not have the AT&T or the HTC Apps in marketplace.

a hard reset (Settings, About, reset phone)did not fix but a "Factory reset" fixed everything. I normally do this first thing when I get a new phone but this time I did not and it burned me.Se La Ve.
[HTC Titan] tai4de2:
I ended up doing a hard reset (settings->about), which fixed it for me.
[Dell Streak 7] alex2308:
Hi,

as the title says: I have a Dell Streak 7, bought in Germany, I am in Germany and I'd like to use the german frequencys (like WiFi channel 12 and 13). The Dell is crippled to Channels 1-11.

Is there any fix for that? I tried chaning the locale in the build.prob, but it did not suceed.

Any idea, please!
[Dell Streak 7] huepfer:
I did not find a solution yet.

Temp fix: I changed the channel on my wifi router to 9. ;-)

Dropped in the potty, will be buying another. I have taken this one apart to look around inside. Wanted to check for memory card and any other color change water damage stickers inside--there is one. ---------I am also going to take vid of the strength of the screen. Ima try to scratch the hell out of it, and see what it takes to break/crack the screen as well , interested in seeing how durable it is. Update later -
[HTC Amaze 4G] antiquezip:
Very interesting. Couldn't wait to see it and sorry it happened to ya.

Perhaps you can make a step-by-step vid instruction on how to disassembling and reassembling the Amaze as it will be very helpful for others in case they needed it.
[HTC Amaze 4G] zPacKRat:
agreed, teardown sticky ftw!
[HTC Amaze 4G] celltimemb:
phone isn't ruined water does not damage the phone, only if there was chlorine in the water like a pool. Only thing that can get damaged by the water is the LED bulbs and a new LCD display will be needed at most that's worst case scenario. I fix water damaged phones all the time. Stick it in a bowl of dry rise for a few days that some times help.
[HTC Amaze 4G] rider222:
@ celltimemb. I didnt know bout the LED fix. Good to know. BUT- I didnt drop it in then pull it out. A kiddie put it there and i found it there later. Put the cell on calcium chloride (Damp-rid) I use this to pull moisture out of many things. Didnt help so i figured pay the deductible and play with the remains. --Yeah i'll do a tear-down vid before the screen test. I had it apart already-I will have s/o record me this wknd.

[HTC Amaze 4G] cndctrdj:
subd for results.

sorry to hear
[HTC Amaze 4G] xManMythLegend:
Elaborate please ?

I was under the impression youd have to get lucky there wasnt much current going through for the water damage to be survivable. ((i.e if youre in the middle of web surfing when it takes a dip its likely a goner))
[HTC Amaze 4G] xndabox:
I'm curious too. Does it depend on the phone also? I have friends who dropped their *phones in and it wouldn't work anymore. Probably a Apple thing though. ;)
[HTC Amaze 4G] ringochan:
I have (in the past 15 years or so) revive quite a few cell phones after water damage. What I usually do is to remove the battery immediately and start drying the device completely using air conditioner and hair dryer. Corrosion will kill the mainboard so when I have a driver handy, I open up the case and dip it in a bowl of rice, too.

I don't think we can revive batteries after fully soaked in water, though.

The worst case was when my friend went ocean swimming with his iphone in his pocket. We did everything but it didn't come back. But when he replaced his battery a few days later, the phone came back on.
[HTC Amaze 4G] rider222:
Doing the screen test, any ideas on what to use and ways to scratch it? I have some ideas. I have the shatter/crack test figured out already.
[HTC Amaze 4G] zPacKRat:
other than keys n change you could try rubbing sand between the screen and a credit card.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Nshih422:
Any updates on this? Kinda wanted to see how tough the screen is. A tear down guide would probably be useful as well.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ccampbell1:
Hi,

I just got my Galaxy Nexus yesterday, and am using it on T-Mobile USA. It's working like a champ, except that I've noticed a few weird notifications. They are not texts - they are notifications, as if they are coming from some app.

My G-Nex (is that too crass?) downloaded a bunch of my apps automatically, so it could well be coming from one of those. A couple of the notifications I noticed almost immediately after installing Google Voice. I don't recall what they said, but they took me to a web page which looked like a Google page, but there was something not quite right about it.

Then, this morning I got a notification to "back up my contacts" - and it took me to a pretty shoddy graphic telling me to install something to back up my contacts.

I realise I'm not providing much details - but has anyone seen anything that sounds like this on their new Galaxy Nexus? I expect its coming from one of the apps it pulled down, but I don't know....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Most likely just some stupid app that auto-downloaded. I'd be interested to know which it is if you narrow it down.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] minooch:
Nope,

The only notifications i get are ones that you would expect - SMS,Email etc

EDIT: As it has been with all my android phones
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mohitrocks:
You might want to try a factory reset? It does seem quite odd...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sosquidtaste:
I remembered reading about this kind of app-vertising (that is definitely too crass :]) in the notification bar. Take a look at this article from Androinica: How to disable ads in the Android notifications menu.

The situation sounds a lot like what you've described and it's troubling to see it crop up in the wild, as it were.

Note that I haven't had to use this myself, so hopefully the linked apps operate as advertised and can narrow down what has been installed on your phone that's opening up Airpush BS.

If that doesn't fix it, then your phone is definitely cursed and you should get rid of it immediately. I'll PM you my address so you can send it to me instead :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ccampbell1:
Found it! Thank you for the link to "Airpush Detector." That, and a related app it pointed me to, "Addons Detector" both came up with "My Settings" by JQ Soft as using Airpush. I have used this very handy My Settings app for a long time on several Android devices, but I checked it's Android Market page and sure enough the latest update to "My Settings" last week, added Airpush ads. Boatload of people complaining and - deservedly - 1-starring it now. I will be uninstalling it promptly!

Thanks for the help, I'd never have tracked this down otherwise! Relieved my Galaxy Nexus is not infected with some spyware or virus (although you could argue that's exactly what this airpush crap is)!! Anyway, I'll uninstall "My Settings" and hope the problem goes away!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sosquidtaste:
Rad-- I'm happy you got it all sorted out. Shame it showed up in the first place, but all's well that ends well!

P.S. Your phone may still be cursed. Mail it to me anytime :D
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stkiswr:

[Desire HD General] SmokingDesire:
so, i remember that I changed various roms and the mic worked fine and then I remember I did a radio update and now its not working... can it be that?

i dont want to have to roll back if it isnt?

my desire hd's current radio is: 12.54.60.25U_26.09.04.11_M2

AND when it was working fine the radio was:

12.28e.60.140fU_26.04.02.17_M2

Can someone please help me, thanks..
[Desire HD General] lawrence750:
personally i dont think it is the radio, the radio is for the wireless stuff gprs/wifi etc (afaik)

you can always be sure by rolling back as you said, but it sounds like hardware to me.
[Desire HD General] loginku:
as far as i know,

every ROM has their own radio preferences...

and radio used for the signal receiver, and something like that..

but one of m friends said that, he read something somewhere, unmatch radio caused someone stayed in a loop boot condition..

so maybe you wanna look up again to the ROM that you used, and match the perfect radio for it :)

or you can just rollback...
[Desire HD General] jegavelan:
Hello

Radio has nothing to do with mic
[Desire HD General] Negazuotas:
Definetely not the radio. Either ROM / Hardware / Reception.
[Desire HD General] HellRa1SeR:
Radio only deals with all the wireless stuff (bluetooth wifi etc.)

I think you may have got a kernel problem. Try and reflash the kernel. :)

[Samsung Infuse 4G] diablo009:
For most folks here (mostly new ones) who don't realize the splurge in data usage out of the blue, here's one possible reason:

Speed Test app

Based on the network speeds, each test could take as much as 20+ MB.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Ryanscool:
Omgosh I've noticed, I do it every night lol and I get about 8mb. I wonder if the speed is higher, a higher amount of data being passed is raised.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] shooter5635:
never thought about that... explains a lot!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] PharmNerd:
I've always avoided SpeedTest like the plague, since I assumed it ate a lot of data. Particularly a problem for me on my GoPhone plan. :)

Another problem app is the stock email app. It would eat about 20MB per day with my Exchange account set up. Even if I never opened the app once. Downloaded Moxier Mail, and everything is under control. Annoying that Moxier doesn't integrate with the stock Calendar, though.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] diablo009:
Yes. The faster speeds you get, the higher the data passed.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Blackberrynomore:
I used to use Moxie Mail but it was killing my battery to I installed Enhanced Email from the market. It is by far the best Exchange email client out there. The dev is very good with support too. I paid for it because it works so well. There is another app you have to install if you use Enhanced Email to take care of an Android issue with it integrating with the contacts. The app is free and you can find more info on the Enhanced Email forum on his website. I highly recommend this app to anyone needing a solid exchange mail client.

Infused with Android DNA
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Kevinr678:
I like to keep my data usage on tab with the *3282# code. If you're on Att it sends you a text of how much of your data you've used and how many texts have been sent on your plan.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] PharmNerd:
I downloaded Enhanced Email a week or two ago as Amazon's AOTD. Had high hopes, but unfortunately, it's not compatible with the NTLM Authentication my employer uses with Exchange (known issue per EE's developer).
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Optimus-Prime:
I dont even bother with those anymore, they seem to be off by like a day or two.

my billing period started the 6th, which in reality hasn't actually started yet, and i got a text from att last telling my speeds are being slowed down for being int he top 5% of usage... assholes.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Ryanscool:
LOL i wish I could start my own cellphone company, i would not have any bull.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] rhcp4ever:
Yeah I gave up speed test after my first test and it went up to 18MB after about 2 minutes of usage. lol
[Samsung Infuse 4G] diablo009:
Yes. It is an often overlooked culprit..!! About 5-10 tests a day, with speeds over ~5 Mbps, would eat through your 200 MB quota in less than a week.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] adalgiso:
I like the Touchdown app for Exchange, it was on sale for 10$ on Amazon appstore.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] devilock138:
Last time I tried Enhanced Email, it didn't support Exchange Web Services(Exchange 2010) which has replaced WebDAV so it wouldn't login via the native methods that would provide RPC over HTTP. I believe WebDAV has been deprecated.

trying to install the DSPmanager apk i got here.

i've tried in ADB, and it gives an invalid install location error, tried in OI file manager and it gives me a big, happy green arrow and says "application not installed"

running GinSense 0.9

any help would be appreciated.

(sorry if this is the wrong thread)

(and i did search and will continue to do so until/unless i hear back)

EDIT to say - also tried app installer - same happy arrow and not installed as OI manager.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndDiSa:
Most likely on your default install location there is no more space left to install the application. You can try to modify that by

adb shell pm setInstallLocation 2

from your PC having connected your phone in debugging mode.

The different locations are described in more details in this post.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bengerman:
i managed to get it installed with

mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
cp /sdcard/DSPManager.apk /system/app

i don't understand why neither of my app installers were doing this, but i'm new to this, so maybe i'm missing something. that link looks like some useful info, though. thanks!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndDiSa:
Ok, in that way you installed DSPManager on your /system partition. Generally this is read only and there is no space left. Applications normally will be installed on /data, /sdcard or (if supported by to ROM) on /sd-ext.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bengerman:
i'm running ginsense with S2E, so i assume normally would be on sd-ext.

i tried both using the install feature and just manually placing the .apk in /sd-ext to no avail. i also tried placing it in /data with no luck.

what are the practical differences with putting it in /system? FWIW, it's running fine with it there (both the rom and the app)

i don't know if it makes a difference, but the app is DSP manager

i removed it from /system/app then used ADB shell. i *think* i figured out what i was doing wrong, the command line wanted me to specify an install location, which i wasn't doing. is this a "cleaner" install method?

adb shell
install /sdcard/DSPManager.apk /sd-ext/app

app shows up in the launcher again.
