[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Unknown Zone:
Well don't know if any tweaks will make it faster, pretty much all you did was change cell phone provider to save $$$ you are still going to use the same towers since Boost is Sprint little bro without 4g.

My 3g service on Sprint is still bad in my area I am lucky to get 100k down most of the time I avg 50-60k and I would expect the same with Boost which I am considering also just to save some $$$$$.

BTW, did you get the ET flashed at the dealer, or was it a side job?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] clip3009:
same here on the speeds, thanks for the advice and i followed the og epic to boost guide

Alright Guys,

[1] Disclaimer

I am not responsible for any damage to your devices. You do this at your own risk.

[2] I take no credit for this. All credit goes madmack for all his hard work. I have just tried my hand at creating it.

[3] As of right now this patch has been tested on [ROM] Cassie's XtraLiteRom KKA ThunderBolted! V2 I have no way of knowing if it works on other ROM's though as per madmack it should work with any deoxed ROM.

[4] This patch should align Arabic fonts correctly as well as add proper readable fonts. Tested only with SMS. Technically if you add an Arabic keyboard it should work as well as browser support.

[5] I haven't done anything the script is already out there I just used it and don't claim other wise.

Install:

Download the attached zip file and flash it from with in CMW. (Always do a nandroid back up before flashing).

Cheers.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] M.Noury:
Why does anyone need this while there is offical updated arabic rom?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] tamarian:
Mostly for optimized cooked ROM's that don't have Arabic support, or to Arabize a newer ROM.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] huzz:
Cooked Roms.

[EDIT]

Like I have mentioned above it should run with any rom thats deoxed'd.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] M.Noury:
Thanks for clearing that up
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] MrBaZ78:
Confirmed its working :) on

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] melterx12:
So I tested out the Verizon Galaxy Nexus at Columbus Circle in NYC. I was surprised at how light the phone is compared to it's size. I was also surprised at how thin it is (the photos online make it seem thicker than it actually is).

The phone is light and made of plastic but it didn't feel cheap like the T-Mobile Galaxy S2 next to it did.

The phone is not completely black, it's more of a very dark gray.

The screen looks amazing, very sharp and great colors. YouTube has an option to force streaming in High Quality even when not on wifi. The software buttons also hide themselves a few seconds after the video starts.

There was no SIM inserted in the phone but the Wifi speeds were 19,800kbps download (can't recall what the upload speed was).

Photos!

(I didnt want to turn flash on so it was hard to get blur-free shot of the phone with the screen on)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TiltedAz:
Did you happen to see if it was 32gb?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
It is 32gb. Many tech blogs have already done pics/videos. Shown apps, capacity, firmware version, etc.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] melterx12:
no did not see sorry
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] voxigenboy:
i think the VZW model looks better. that and i still can't believe the GSM model is only 16GB when i thought that 32GB wasn't enough.... considering that i can download 1GB in 5 minutes(& have unlimited data)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] flameinthefire:
i wanna get one asap i have had every single android phone and every single iphone i am currently on iphone 4s after nexus s i said to my self i would never go back to android because its so sluggish and the battery life was horrible on all the android phones i had, but when i saw ics it looked great now i am willing to give this a try and its lte..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
you're probably going to see some abysmal battery life then.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] flameinthefire:
really? i heard good thing about the gn battery life
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] voxigenboy:
heh... i had an iphone back in the day... i used to fall asleep at night while letting it stream music & when i woke up the next day it was still on streaming.... tried that once with my old Thunderbolt & remember getting up in the night to use the restroom(a few hours later) and the phone was already dead.... and considering that my Rezound only lasts about 2 1/2 hours(constant use) i'm not expecting much more from the GN.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] flameinthefire:
damn thats a let down well the it has 1850mah battery and iphone only has 1400mah so lets see how it performs
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cellzealot:
LTE radios all use a lot of power, its endemic to first generation chipsets. The VIA chipset in the Gnex is no different and radio performance in general is mediocre in poor signal areas, compared to my Bionic or any of my other Motorola devices. The Qualcomm LTE chipset on the Thunderbolt is abysmal in this regard and battery life suffered horribly as a result.

None of the current LTE phones is going to deliver really decent battery life until the second generation chipsets appear next year.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
And the iPhone doesn't have LTE, and has a 3.5" screen. That helps.

You can't even compare. 2 different OS's and completely different devices.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BulletproofIdeal:
Right now I have an original Galaxy Tab and a Galaxy S Captivate. My music is fairly large (~16GB) and my phone does not have enough memory for this but I have a 32GB SD card in the tablet. Its great for listening to music at home or in the car but walking around with it is inconvenient. Is there anyway to create a LAN connection between my phone and tablet so that I can stream the music from my tablet to phone.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrhaley30705:

Hi, im tryin to port a ROM from one phone to another, these two phones are identically except for the CPU (Huawei U8800pro and U8800-51), and slight differences in partition table, i've edited the updater-script in MIUI rom for U8800pro to adapt it to the U8800-51 partition table, i've managed to flash it, but its stuck on boot.

How can i "see" whats happening in that boot, or somethign that give me an idea of whats happening (logcat or something?).

According to this: http://phandroid.com/2011/12/03/and...ore/?utm_medium=referral&utm_source=pulsenews there's a partially functioning ICS port for the M version. I'm not sure how similar the hardware between the M and the V versions, but if that dev releases the soured code I'm sure that this would speed up an ICS port, if someone was working on that for the V.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] CzE517:
I am now releasing my app battery calibrator here on XDA because it is no longer available on the Android Market.

Devs feel free to include this in all of your roms. It does the same thing as going into recovery mode. I also added more features to it.. letting you see more battery stuff.

Quickly wipe/delete your battery stats after flashing new roms, instead of having to go in recovery mode clicking a bunch of buttons! :D

Why doe this Battery Calibrator app need to read the Network communications and the phone calls or needs to modify storage of the SD Contents?

I will Wait for a reply from some developer with only Posts: 23 times to drop an app here for us to test out or add to roms, just cautious from the Carrier IQ fiasco that is currently under way...
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] CzE517:
Network communications used for admob.

Read phone state to gather battery stats to show current voltage and charge of the phone.

Modify storage permission will be removed in next release.

If you don't feel comfortable installing the app that's fine. There are other apps on the market that do similar stuff to this app.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Deron Baker:
Conclusions

Caveat: I understand that no one charges their phone to full capacity and then does one activity until the battery is dead. Also, those numbers might over-estimate the actual time you can perform a given activity from a full charge since the battery drains slightly faster once capacity drops below 30%. Instead, it is better to focus on comparing the PPPH numbers.

The point of doing these experiments is to get a comparison of how battery is drained by doing various activities and to see how Droid Razr compares to Droid X. In actuality, most users will vary their use from day to day and will only perform these activities for short periods at a time. Still, getting an objective measurement of battery drain can give a clearer picture of battery life.

A couple of conclusions can be drawn from this:

1. Droid Razr and Droid X have very similar battery lives, with Droid Razr having a slight advantage overall. This rule only holds true for WiFi and 3G, since Droid X lacks a 4G radio. (Using 4g on Droid Razr will drain the battery faster than 3g on Droid X, albeit you’ll get faster data speeds. The one exception is with Netflix. Watching Netflix via 4g on Razr is actually more battery efficient than watching Netflix via 3g on Droid X.)

2. On Droid Razr, when using a particular app, battery drain is 4G > 3G > WiFi.

On average, 4G drains battery about 10 – 20% faster than 3G, doing the same activity. (This is not to be confused with 10 to 20 percentage points.)

On average, 4G drains battery about twice as fast as WiFi when watching streaming video (the most data-intense activity you can do on a phone.)

3. There is no good reason to use the 4g network for GPS/Navigation in your car. Use 3g only. Three reasons for this: 4g drains battery about 25% faster than 3g using Navigation. Secondly, 3g speed is fast enough to update Google maps on the fly. Lastly, 4g coverage is limited geographically while 3g is widespread. While driving it is possible to lose 4g coverage, causing the phone to temporarily stall while switching to the 3g radio. Imagine this happening at a crucial turning point in your navigation route.

4. Using the Smart Actions app to shut off cellular data (3g/4g), WiFi, and GPS when the screen is turned off causes battery to drain at an extremely slow pace. And this still leaves the phone on standby to receive phone calls and texts.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Deron Baker:
Now if someone with a Rezound would run some of these tests, I would be much appreciative. I would really like to see a head to head comparison.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] mybook4:

Wow. This place is completely ******.

I've donated to jt1134 FOUR times, and I posted a PUBLIC link on a PUBLIC forum. He can refuse to post here all he wants, but I'm completely free to post a link to guide others to the right spot.

Not one reply was necessary, let alone 2+ pages of bull**** FALSE privacy NONSENSE.

The link to JT's rom belongs in the DEV section, not General, because DEV is where people go to find ****ing ROMS. DUH! The whole reason I posted it is so the average uninformed visitor doesn't install Enyo's ICS SDK crap-fest and finds the real daily driver ICS.
[Fascinate General] suppliesidejesus:
Still doesn't belong in the Dev section because the Dev section is used for Devving. No Devving is going to occur in a thread that links to the real post, its an information post.

If random uninformed users flash Enyo's ICS instead of JT's that's on them for not reading.

PS - Nobody gives a **** how many times you've donated to JT, it's not like its some badge of honor that people wield about as weapons. Please put your epeen away.

Awesome point.... let's talk about that. How much "devving" goes on in a rom thread? I'm going with none. They are release posts, nothing more!

The donate thing isn't a badge of honor, however I think it's an important point to prove I'm not just some leech. The system doesn't work if people don't support the developers.
[Fascinate General] suppliesidejesus:
When people don't post garbage in threads, plenty of Devving goes on in Dev threads. Or, at least it used to. That's just one of the plethora of reasons JT no longer posts here.

[Fascinate General] kidserious:
I don't think you get it: Did you in any way consult with, ask permission for or notify jt in any way about posting a link to HIS work on this forum? If the answer is yes and he ok'ed it, then I apologize and I will go back to minding my own business. However, I know this is not what happened. You didn't ask his permission in any way and therefore you stepped over the line. Now, is it a really big deal, no. But, many of us are friends with jt (as much as you can be through the internet), we spend a lot of time in IRC together. So, we know his wishes regarding HIS work and we respect that. He has stated in NO way does he want any of his work posted on xda. We would rather not have jt say fu** it and stop posting builds on the forums period because his wishes aren't being considered. That would screw over a lot of people like yourself (who donate to jt) and there would be NO links at all to post, like the one you posted. The conclusion: was what you did, in itself, wrong? No. But you did not ask his permission to post HIS intellectual property on this forum, and that my friend is wrong. Did many of us sort of "attack" you for doing it? In a way yes, but you understand why. Please respect the wishes of the developers, and if you don't know there wishes....ask.
[Fascinate General] gfosco:
@joshkoss I have no issue with you closing the thread.. I would have closed it too.
[Fascinate General] gfosco:
I don't need to ask permission from anyone to post a link to a thread on Rootzwiki.

Look, it doesn't make sense and I don't believe that JT is that fake-private about posting his work. (And I didn't post or re-share his ROM, only a link to Rootzwiki.) If it's public on Rootzwiki, why is anyone to think it's not straight up ****ing public?

In Plano, TX, and yes I paid tax on the $139.99 but again they did honor the price match guaranteed. They refunded a total of $64.95, I originally paid 199.99 for it. It just sick that Corporate AT&T stores charge a lot of money for smartphones and won't even do a price match.

Cheaper ATT Skyrocket

If you want to get an cheaper Skyrocket using ATT store here's how you do it, if you already have a existing ATT account.

Find a ZIP code that shows up in ATT site as $149, like in 94109 for San Francisco.

The next procedure requires 2 steps

1 - Go to the ATT site and change your billing address for a address in that zip code.

Your billing address is ONLY used to mail you stuff, NOT checked against your Credit Card billing address, so if you leave in Arizona and your CC is from Phoenix and your ATT Billing address is from California, ATT bill will still be paid.

2 - Now, for this step you have to call ATT via 611 or 1-800-331-0500

Once on the phone w billing department tell them you need to change you "place of primary use" so it matches your billing address. If they ask why you want to change, say because of work, or your parents are military and you about to move.

Primary Location of Usage is used to calculate how you get taxed on your bills.

The zip code from where your primary usage location is how they see what upgrades and prices are available to you.

Easiest way to make sure it took effect, is to, after you done w the ATT representative, login onto ATT site (or logout and back in if you already in ATT site), check for your upgrade availability and on top right hand side corner should show your new Zip code and reflect the prices and phone availability to you.

Now, once your address address is "fixed" you need to go to a corporate store and get your upgrade. Note that authorized dealers might be able to upgrade you also, but safest to go to the corporate store and do it.

At the corporate store, they will be able to pull your info and see your zip code and now that the Skyrocket is to be charged 149.99 (and NOT 250 like regular) since that is what is charged on 94109 zip code.

Once you have the Skyrocket w you, maybe within week later or so, change your billing address to the correct one and call ATT to change your "place of primary use", otherwise you end up paying Cali taxes.

If you want to be fancy, you can go as far and change the "place of primary use" to Nevada, since they have the lowest tax rates in the US.
