[HTC Sensation] raddy:
I am referring the phonedog comparison of G2X and sensation.

In which they ran 3d benchmark against g2x running 2.2 and sensation runnning 2.3

Sensation got a score of 1900 and g2x got a score of 2300, if hardware acceleration may not be taken into account then it wont be for g2x also no?
[HTC Sensation] mzmo:
The benchmarks don't take into consideration dual cores and the fact that the Sensation is running Asynchronous cores.
[HTC Sensation] T.G.:
I think that Sensation shows bad benchmark results because of that crap heavy Sense ui. Qualcomm's s3 processor is quite powerful.

And benchmarks don't mean you-know-what.
[HTC Sensation] Pjay12:
Slowest dual core? lolno.

Ive only been here a couple of months. Ive gathered quite a bit reading all these forums. Ive read up on stuff like these elsewhere. Ive also played around with a LOT of phones. And by playing around I dont mean the 15 mins in a shop opening apps and checking camera of different phones before you buy them. My friends have pretty good phones (O2X, GS2, GS, Desire HD, O3D, Xperia arc, neo etc)

Ive done almost everything there is to do on those phones and always I end up glad I have my sensation. Looks - hands down winner. Sexiest phone ever, tied with the arc imo. Its no slouch. Benchmarks? I get **** high scores on custom ROMS. After I proved it, I uninstalled the apps from my phone cos they meant nothing. People are always gonna claim their phone is better and cos an app gave them a coloured bar with a nice big number, its way faster. Trust me, you're gonna be glad you got a senny. (Unless its defective of course) S2 feels like crap, runs at the same speed mine does if not seemingly slower and the screen is tough to work with. (SAMOLED? lol not as cool as it claims to be) and its less responsive than mine. Im happier with my sensation than I would have been with any other phone in almost EVERY aspect. The xperia Live's speaker volume has me a bit jealous but thats about it. I use earphones anyway. G2X feels awful. I cant work with it. Ever. And the camera on the senny blows the others outta the water. With the crap HTC drivers and the asynchronous system, the senny is bloody amazing and can easily easily keep up with any phone and beat the crap out of most. Wait till ICS. Proper ICS.

Ok end of rant. If anyone says your phone is the slowest dual core - laugh. Then walk away :D

Oh and all the websites that review phones.. I relied on them quite a bit myself. Trusted the pics of benchmarks they put up and read how they reviewed phones and took tiny little things like the 2MP FFC on the S2 and worshipped it, etc etc. 90% of those sites have no idea what theyre talking about. Any phone with the bigger MHz clock speed on the box is faster. .7MP more FFC is holyshishkebab. phone is .3mm slimmer! OH MY GOD! Thats the basic idea. Dont trust that. Do your own research.

Now - actual end of rant.
[HTC Sensation] raddy:
Thanks for your rant, as even I am now owning a sensation too.

I am an avid fan of Htc sense ui,

I didn't know any other strength of HTC sensation before reading your post.

Eventhough g2x is more slimmer than sensation, in look wise sensation is class apart from any android Mobile phone and can be comparable only with Sony Ericsson xperia arc and iPhone
[Flipside General] laidaxin:
I found it and test it two days ago!it work on this device very good and had no FC yet by my test! I don't have enough skill to build a 2.3 ROM for it! I know this place have someone can help us a CM 7 ROM either a 4.0 ROM.

Can somebody help me to build a CM7 rom?

also i need some help i cant understand anything it says and maybe some instructions on how to boot into recovery
[Flipside General] xaser66:
WOW! It's Great!

I tested CM7 on a xt720 and it is a really amazing rom!... If could be possible that hack CM7 to run in a FlipSide, it will for sure make this phone a very nice option, since it will help with the main issues of the phone and IMHO, the FlipSide is an underrated phone, since their hardware is very capable (and in my experience very reliable), since the only main gripe may be the low memory but

CM7 will help a lot with this since is greatly suited for use the SD card as memory.

Thanks for share the info and thanks for start the process of develop CM7 to flipside, it will be a great success!

Best regards
[Flipside General] laidaxin:
Thanks for your job!Yes,this is a simple chinese recovery,but my english is very bad,so i can not translate chinese to english .first you install the apk file,and then press the first button to install the recovery,and last you press the fourth button to boot to the boot menu.you will reboot to the bootmenu and recovery UI!
[Flipside General] rignfool:
I don't really understand how... But using said recover... It would appear that i have overclocked my phone to 1 ghz...

Setcpu seems to agree... However only 1 ghz and 300 mhz seem to work...

And my short benchmark numbers are lower as well...

Just thought i'd share
[Flipside General] rignfool:
Now... Upon more playing... I've figured out how to edit the settings in the cpu settings menu... And setcpu still insists that we are overclocked...

I cannot however get more than 2 frequencies to work... Default the 1000 and the 300...

I'm really interested in the smartass govenor... Thinking that it might help the anemic battery

BTW: in the data directory... The bootmenu.tar... In the config directory... The overclock.conf needs txt editor editing

ive been having problems with downloading CM7 but seem to be having luck download cyanogenmod's ics branch so i guess ill attempt it ... no harm can be done to mine i just got a new samsung phone today

Thanks for kind attention and help. Best regards!

Was able to install and load into recovery, but I saw no usable options in it. Couldn't find where to even make a backup and was only able to get out of said recovery by total accident.
[Flipside General] WinSuk:
Has anyone tried flashing a Defy rom on the Flipside? Make sure to have a backup or the SBF ready :P

If someone wants to test, I might be able to build one from source (waiting until the flipside I have isn't needed full-time anymore before flashing a half-working recovery on it)
[Flipside General] laidaxin:
It is not working when flashed a Defy ROM,I tested it.

If you can make a ROM,I can help you to test.
[Flipside General] pre4speed:
I can help too. My flipside is available. Its now just a backup for me. Would even be willing to donate to the cause as long as I could get back. Or just trying things out. Let me know.
[Flipside General] WinSuk:
Ok thanks... I'll send you a PM when I have something to test :P
[Flipside General] pre4speed:
Got your pm. Replied. Just wondering which chinese option I need to choose with the defy recovery to make a backup and flash this.
[Flipside General] laidaxin:
you can reboot to the bootmenu and access the recovery.in the apk you push the "恢复模式"button to reboot to the bootmenu!
[Flipside General] gravyong43:
Hey thanks
[Flipside General] pre4speed:
Still doesn't work for me. Wont mount data/recovery. Can't make backups or flash winsuk's rom attempt.
[Flipside General] xaser66:
Hello! Thanks for your good work and efforts.

Please, dont give up on this attemp to get a rom for flipside, after almost 6 months of trust on my flipside I found is such cable and is mostly the crap original rom that make hurt to the flipside, since the processor is good candidate for overcloking and with an more fit option to use sd memory, the phone could be a amazing for their humble birth.

Please, if could be possible to post some omore info and instructions in order to see if possible that some other friends of the flipside around here may enter and help with testing process and debugging.

Thanks again for good work and please keep it rolling.

Best regards!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] richcracker:
So as the title states, trying to migrate to the galaxy...it's rooted but when I try to Batch restore it shows "0" apps to restore. I did a batch app + data backup on The rooted EVO and placed the SD card from EVO to galaxy...any ideas guys? Sorry for the typing, iPad sucks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mkuehn10:
I moved from an EVO 4G to this phone just last week.

Go into the app and go to the Preferences and Backup folder location and make sure it's pointing to the right location

I know this isn't a fix to your problem, but the way I did it was through Dropbox. I just rooted my E4GT and then installed Titanium Backup, sync'd with Dropbox, and then restored all missing apps.

I actually tried restoring all apps prior to that, but had some horrendous results, so I just started over and only did the missing apps.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] richcracker:
Thanks. Did you manually restore them or batch? I'm trying to save time/hassle and batch restore the missing apps/data.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mkuehn10:
I did batch, but like I said I only did the missing apps.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] richcracker:
Yeah I'm at a loss, I pointed it to the right folder and now there are 49 apps showing up that can be batch restored but not the ones I want, it's mostly system apps that are from my previous custom rom that I don't want restored...about to say f it and go the mybackup route, lol.

FYI, "beats" is basically just a graphic equalizer. It's not the huge deal HTC is making it out to be. If you play music back with PowerAmp you can get the same effect by using the EQ.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atadres:
thats what i was saying is that we do have "beats audio" on these 2 roms that i posted beats audio is not hardware its not like HTC took a dre beats audio speaker and stuck it in a phone they just modded some equalizer settings and boom a new product for them to make money off of suckers the issues that im stating is that he wants a port of a stock 3,5 sense sensation rom with great battery life and speed on the sensation which is completly hardware related to the phone we cannot have the same speed and battery lives on our Htc evos just by porting this rom .......

[GUIDE] How to fix "unknown baseband" / "stuck on airplane mode" problem

Today my friend who has a i9100 as I presented the unit with the following problem: not connected in any way in the mobile carrier, airplane mode was stucked.

Well, looking on the internet and especially this forum, I found several solutions to make the flash the original rom to accept that his incredible Samsung Galaxy SII had become an amazing Samsung Play SII. As I'm Brazilian and never give up, here's what worked for me.

---------

Most importantly, use at your own risk. If you are unsure of the steps below, do not do or have someone who has more experience. The procedures worked for me, but does not mean it will work for you.

Special care was always doing this kind of operation in any type of phone: use good quality cables, make sure that there is no bad contacts and preferably make the flash operations with a notebook with the battery at 100% load and phone with 100% load. After all, nobody wants the operation is interrupted and you get a plastic brick.

----

Here are the steps:

1) Download this application: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1308546. EFS Pro serves to backup / restore partition EFS.

2) To use EFS Pro, your phone must be enabled with the root. To do this, follow:

2.a) Paving the way for SuperOneClick: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1056334

2.b) Using SuperOneClick to "open legs": http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=803682

2.c) Now, some screwdrivers and screws inside your device: https://market.android.com/details?...t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsInN0ZXJpY3Nvbi5idXN5Ym94Il0.

3) Now the easy part, get another Galaxy S2 to be the "donor" baseband. You do not? Download mine by this link:

https://hotfile.com/dl/149885347/a004c04/EFS_20111227_235358.tar.html or https://rapidshare.com/files/2401446638/EFS_20111227_235358.tar. If you use my baseband, skip to step 3.b.

3.a) Pick up the phone "donor", run the EFS Pro and select the backup option. To accelerate the process, ask to put the backup on the sdcard. There, he set up and placed in the / sdcard / EFSProBackup.

3.b) Copy / Create the folder / sdcard / EFSProBackup problem to the phone with the same path.

3.c) EFS Pro back in, ask to restore the backup from the device (will find the file you copied) and ready.

4) Give the problem phone a boot and see the problem disappear.

Hi, ljlima,

thanks for your report, I'am Brazilian too, but I'm almost giving up ;)

Completely disappointed with this ****ty problem... Made a hard reset typing a code in phone keypad (since I could not access ID samsung in factory reset) and nothing...

Very afraid of following your instructions since I'am totally newbie and there is no replies confirming your method.

Is there a chance of solving this by upgrading android version (although KIES is crappy as hell) or other non invasive and easier method ;) ?

thank you!

Also, sometimes, if your /EFS is not totally corrupted, you can just reflash your modem. I had issues with this on CM7 nightlies, and my problem was always solved with a simple reflash. Its easier than restoring your whole /EFS backup, and a lot quicker. But, mind this is only if your /EFS isn't done for.

"Unknown" baseband on a non-rooted SGS2!

Help!

My SGS2 suddenly would not recognize any SIM after a failed attempt at backing up my files using the sh!tty Kies software.

All I did was make a backup using Kies and somehow it got stuck "Preparing". I left it overnight and in the morning, when I checked, it still didn't go through the backup process - just kept saying preparing. Anyway, I decided to cancel it as I needed to use my phone already. I clicked on the cancel button and guess what? It also got stuck in cancelling! I left it and went to shower and when I got back after about 15 minutes (probably longer), it still didn't cancel. Frustrated, I plugged the USB cable out. Later that day, I noticed that I didn't receive any SMS/call. Then, I noticed that the notification bar displayed the "no signal" icon. I rebooted my phone, hoping the signal would return. But, I still got no signal after it switched on.

I did a factory reset, hoping it will put everything back to normal. I used the volume+power key combination as the factory reset option under Settings, somehow, would not work. Anyway, after doing the factory reset, it still wouldn't connect to the network.

I then noticed that the About screen displayed an "Unknown" baseband version.

From what I read from this thread and several other forums, this could be due to a corrupted /efs partition, which could have resulted from improperly rooting/flashing the device. However, I never rooted my phone in the first place!!!

And I heard the ICS update is rolling out now but I can't update because, somehow, Kies won't connect to my phone anymore!!!

My phone now is practically a very expensive music player. THIS IS SO FRUSTRATING!!! :mad::mad::mad:

Please help, anyone! :(:(:(
