[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] DaReDeViL:
Hello,

Being an addict to xda and especially the android forum for our beloved HD2, I'm having more more difficulties to browse the whole android dev forum to follow the news as the flow is growing fast !!!

So my proposition is to split the android dev forum to the 4 main branches : AOSP/CM7 - MIUI - SENSE(FROYO) - SENSE(GINGERBREAD).

I know that it must be hard to rearrange all the topics but I also propose to help, I'm ready to help rearranging the forum whenever the idea is adopted ;)

To all the hd2 xda members, please give your opinion about the idea in this thread, just to help the OPs choose their side ;)

bye
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Nigeldg:
And maybe an 'other' section for themed ROMs (e.g. iPhone themed MIUI or SGS2 recently released ROM or Xperia Arc). However I think that as development on the HD2 is inevitably slowing and dying, some might say that there isn't much point in all the effort needed to reorganize all of the topics into the correct subforums.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] techspark:
Fellow Evomates,

I know there are a couple of related threads, but they are quite old and do not have the info i m looking at.

I have a couple of ocassions in my locality for new year and i cannot afford to miss them and my evo 4g is the only camcorder that i have.

So i want to know which is the rom that has the best video recording capabilities.

I m currently on stock(unrooted) 2.2 (yes i know i m a generation behind but i never felt the need of rooting my phone until today)

The audio quality on the stock is horrible. The video is good but i know my evo is capable of doing better.

So i need a rom that can :

1. Record in 1080p (i saw a rom a couple of months back that had this, not sure if it actually did and how usable it was) I m sure evo can do 1080p because 1080p is nothing but 2mp and evo has an 8mp camera, correct me if i m wront. Also, if it can do 1080p will i need to upgrade to a class 6 or class 10 sd card ?

2. If not 1080p then 720p with excellent audio quality.

Please suggest me the best rom, current user experience will be greatly appreciated. I m okay with any rom(sense, aosp etc) , video recording is the only priority, i dont need any other feature.

All replies will be appreciated. Thank you. Cheers !

P.S The ocassion is on 2nd jan, so please reply quickly as it will take me atleast a day to root and test.

Re: Evo Video

Recently switched from Tmobile to Sprint. I have flashed them all. Energy Rom for 1080p. Its very stable, daily use however no 4g. Currently using Warm Two Point Two. Good Luck and a warning ....Flashing is very addictive...:)

Using RadianceHD Revamped for one of my 5 Roms and it has 1080p camcorder capabilities and now has Beats audio capabilities as of last night thanks to Chad kernel.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] techspark:
Thank you guys for the inputs. I m rooting my phone right away.

I have a couple of questions :

1. How stable is 1080p on evo. Does it lag ? how many fps can i get ?

2. Do i need to upgrade my class 2 sd card for 1080p to work properly.

Please note, i need to record for 2 hrs continuous, so how much of space will 1080p need ? Will an 8gig card be sufficient ??

Thanks
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] devnulldroid:
I remember reading somewhere that 16GB will get you 2.5hrs (empty), so by time you add Rom, apps and data you would be pushing it. 32GB, imo would be way to go. Might be wrong, but as far as class of card, heard mixed things on class 10, but good on 4 or 8. Brand name and reputation seems to play a part as well. Personally, I would never try and push a phone to do what you are trying to do.. but when its all you have.. you can make it do, just dont expect perfection.

I will say my EVO has never failed me yet :) :knocks on wood
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] techspark:
Thanks. So i think 32gig class 6 is the way to go out.

I know i just cannot expect my phone to replace a camcorder completely and i know the limitations, but at the end of it i want most of its capabilities.

If it can do 1080p without any lag and without any prob, i would love 1080p from it but if it can do 720p with better fps then i guess i will stick to 720p.

What would be your final take? I m sure custom roms will do better 720p then the stock one, correct me if i m wrong.

So i guess i need to root it anyways.

Can you also post a video of 1080p so i can see how it looks, i would really appreciate if you can upload a sample. Thanks

As you know our android devices did not use that from the beginning to the ics. Our devices was not smooth as iPhone coz it didnt use gpu instead of cpu in transitions as i hear. But ics uses hw acceleration and it is smooth on even i9000. Now i ask you, is it possible to port hw accelaleration to our gingerbread devices as a mod or tweak?

Ps: i am a noob about these things for now sorry if i am wrong but i said these as i understood
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] falex007:
It's not true.

1. We have acceleration. But this is not requirement. IE developers can use hw acceleration and can not use it. For iPhone they should use only accelerated API.

2. In iPhone the user interface process has realtime priority. When user made some action, all background processes stopped and only process processed user action will work: try open some page in browser and while it is loading try to move the screen. The loading will stopped. In Android UI process is usual process. When you will move the page in browser it will continue loading the page. But because not all CPU used for work with UI process it can be lesser smooth than iPhone one

It's just different logic of UI. That's all.

Ya but I have used iphone 4. And believe me guys our phone looks really a piece of crap infront of iphone. Its really smooth like silk. Our phone lag like hell when we want to do some heavy multi tasking (only 3-4 apps). But with nearly 11 open apps still iphone run so much smooth. I accept that its not open source bla bla bla...but remember guys still android has to learn a lot to reach level of smoothness of iphone.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] falex007:
The advantages of Android will be on multicore CPUs. This is because of logic. While one core will be executing UI process, others will execute other processes. On IOS all other processes will be frozen

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] jamsori:
That tends to happen when you have 3-4 processing apps and compare it to 11 frozen apps. Try having a few apps idle in the background on the i9003 and it's smooth as silk too. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Ryryoku:
Are you sure about GPU ? I don't think our i9003 use that.

A made a test : Opera mobile is the best browser ever because of he uses GPU acceleration. And the GPU acceleration is so awesome wich some big websites are more smooth in i9003 than iphone 4. If all the UI use the GPU, I don't think the phone laggy.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vijaypalmanit:
I am agree with Ryryoku, the smoothness of opera mini/mobile gives as same experience as we get in iPhone , so i think his point is valid, this is the reason why Opera is smoother than any other browser of android...

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toonarme:
I have a rooted SGS2 running Siyah 2.3 and Touch X-Power, with LauncherPro. I have the stock messaging app. When I receive texts from certain people in my contacts list, I get a notification but when I open the text to read it, I'm taken straight to the message create screen and can't read the text. No matter which way I try to enter the messaging app, I can't open the text or any previous ones that I've received from them.

This also happens if I have Handscent running, the message is accepted by the stock app but not Handscent... It's driving me mad.

Any ideas? Can I remove the stock app so that it isn't there at all and use something else like Handscent as the default?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] postfatal:
If the app doesn't force close then it sounds like its a problem with either what you are doing or something other than the app.

But yea, you can remove the app and just use handcent if you really want to. Get Root Explorer from the market if you haven't already (its like £2 or something). Then navigate to system > apps > you will see a whole bunch of apks. Find MMS.apk and delete it.

Hope that helps.

Hello forums. I'm sure I'm not the only one with the problem and I've spent some time looking but no avail in finding a solution. (most likely because I'm unfamiliar with the forums) So getting to the point.

I rooted my Samsung Galaxy SII LTE (rogers) using superoneclick. After rebooting my phone I've noticed a LOT of lag when it comes to scrolling through pages, using/loading apps, and even using the back, home, and search "buttons" on the front. Is there a solution to this? I would greatly appreciate the help.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] billownz:
I've never used one click root but rooting shouldn't cause lag like that. I would personally just flash a new rom rather than go through all the trouble to track down the cause. Do you have clockwork installed yet?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] silver03wrx:
Yeah root does not cause that . You should freeze your bloatware, and try a custom rom like red sonja
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Iunchbox-:
Haven't done anything after the root. I originally rooted it so I can hook up my sixaxis controller to it but after hearing what else you can do with your phone I think I'm going to follow that route instead. All I want to do right now is get rid of the stock apps that I don't need, get the sixaxis working on the phone (I've read the Cyanogenmod kernal can do that for me)

But I'd be more then happy to test out new roms from time to time, so first thing is first. What is the easier way to go about Backing up my entire phone so I can restore it to that state?

Haven't installed clockwork yet. What does it do and how do I install it? I'll try and find the links on my own when I have some time but I'm just heading out to work soon (horay for double time and a half) or you could be a trooper and help a noob out.

Edit: So I've figured out what clockwork is and its asking me which phone I'm using, doesn't list my phone there so I just want to make sure choosing the tmobile samsung galaxy sII is alright despite having a rogers SSG S2 LTE
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Iunchbox-:
I tried freezing some but I've already managed to freeze something that causes my apps to force close whenever I open it. Is there a list of the bloatware that I can safely freeze or delete?

I'll be looking into which rom I will go with first but for now I'm going to read up about it before I do anything else. Don't want to brick my phone a week into buying it.

Could you post me a link to the red sonja rom with the instructions on how to install / flash it.

If you boot into cwm. Click backup/restore and backup your current setup then flash red sonja. And do the same think. You can go back into cwm and restore your nandroid backups anytime you want.

Hey there,

Here are FRESHLY-EXTRACTED, with some mods (forgot to mention) Games Hub and Social Hub from SII.

What is a Games Hub? :O

-> A Application which features for Gaming Online or playing Social Games. It is done by Samsung and is found in the SGSII Model I9100. I thought to Extract them and Post it here.

What is a Social Hub?

-> A place where all your social networking updates are stored. You dont have to sign into different applications for different SNS. Therefore, it saves the RAM and the Battery to a certain extent.

P.S-> These are FRESH apps. They are Un-Touched. I dont Have my Phone NOW to test it!

Also, These work on my friend's I9000 flawlessly. Yeah, The Game's Hub argued that it wont open, we scolded it and then it agreed to! .: We Just Re-Booted the Phone :.

Games HUB-> http://www.multiupload.com/YDWRC3ZH9Q

Social HUB-> http://www.multiupload.com/WR38B3KS2Q

-------------------

How-to.

-> Download the Apps.

-> Copy them using Root Explorer or anything equal.

-> Paste them to /system/app.

-> If they work show it off to your friends, If they dont, Just think these apps dont exist :)

There really is no alternative to rom manager for what it does. You HAVE to use bootstrap recovery
[Motorola Droid X2] IAreKyleW00t:
If your running the STOCK 2.3.4, then you do NOT need to SBF to a fresh version. This is whether your rooted or not. You'll only need to SBF to stock 2.3.4 if you installed a custom ROM on, like Molten, Liberty, etc.

Personally, I would recommend SBF'ing - but that's just because I like a fresh, clean start with these things. Eitherway, it'll work perfectly fine.

As for getting to 2.3.5, it's recommend that you use the "Android Recovery" that comes with it to flash the update. Once your on 2.3.5 you'll need to reroot and install BSR to get the custom ROM on.

Yes it can be done

BUT

For people who are just trying to follow the directions for the ROM install, they will end up having issues, because no where in the ROM install instructions, for any ROM we have, does it mention deleting SU backup made by root keeper. So if they try to just flash a ROM after rooting w/ root keeper, they will get an "installation aborted error line 294" & if they aren't able to restore a backup before rebooting then it's just going to be sbf time anyways lol.

If you know what you are doing tho and have read into it and found what you need to do of using root keeper to gain root, then yes, go for it, but the "average" user here is going to have no idea why they keep getting installation aborted, when they could just use zergrush and be all good to go ;)
