Yes battery life is bad, on that front there are many phones that last much longer I have to admit.

Not noticed lag on mine but I do stop apps autorunning so I get more memory free. Though installing or starting an app does produce a pause for some reason.

Not had to restart mine so can't comment on that or touch screen as both fine for me but I have to say (and fellow android fans may berate me for this) ios will be smoother than a similar spec android device as ios is tailored only for specific hardware (unlike android), doesn't support some things that eat battery life (like widgets or full multitasking for example) and so you will notice this on optimus 3D.

I feel you would benefit from a stock android experience. I loved my nexus s but just recently upgraded to a droid 3/xt860. I recommend that you take a look at the nexus s or galaxy nexus...that way you can really see what the OS is all about rather than having to deal with the gimmicks some of these other phones bring about.
[General Questions and Answers] benthe1:
LG Optimus 3D was probably a bad choice for Android. The GSII and the Galaxy Nexus are the best Android phones out right now. HTC seems to have stalled in their innovation, though they still make really good phones. Motorola is lagging behind as well.

I would recommend checking out the phones I mentioned at the store and see if that's what you want. I always mess with phones at the store before buying them just to see if my initial impressions are good or bad. Then go from there.

factory reset maybe ? or just try reflashing even recovery, then custom rom .... if it doesnt work, try finding stock somewhere from the guys here on forum ... and then from that rom, instal rom manager, flash cwm, and custom rom ...

When at work i can run podcasts on blue tooth for 5 hours, surf web on 4g (usually checking the forums) for 30 min during my 2 20 min breaks. This is my usual 8 to 9 hours from pulling it from the charger to getting home. Rarely do i have to swap batteries before i leave work (i have 3 batteries) but can usually make it home and toss it on the computer usb if i don't want to swap out my battery.

1460? Who's kernel is that the only ICS supported are Shuriken and Shadow which only hit 1400

[Epic 4G General] AndrewZorn:
Not that I've tried it... but we all know the Epic is more than twice as fast as some devices that run Android. In that case, how would running it at 40% speed make it unusable?
[Epic 4G General] XxLostSoulxX:
Umm no thats wrong.

HTC EVO Shift 4G can be over-clocked to 1.9GHz from a stock 800 MHz: 110% OC

HTC Rezound can be overclocked to 1.99GHz from a stock 1.5GHz: 49-50% OC

Moto Droid X can be overclocked to 2GHz from a stock 1GHz: 100% OC

Theres plenty the Samsung Epic only has technically a 30% overclock and virtually a 50% overclock

But theres plenty of other phones with more over-clockability

[Epic 4G General] XxLostSoulxX:
Well because our phones are 1.2GHz Stock but they lowered to 1GHz because that was the margin in 2010 for high end devices but they Under Clocked to save some battery. So technically we only came up with a 30% OC (1500MHz).

That will not show us how it performs I.E Lag. That will scroll smoothly and will stutter. running 400Mhz on max is still to low for no lag at all.

I could believe 100/600 or 200/800

Lol but I swearrr its on 100-400 conservative lol

And it won't show if it lags which it seriously doesn't at allllll but if I've been using only 100, 200, and 400 mhz for the past 6 or 7 hours or longer then u know its not lagging cuz why would I put up with a day using my phone lagging everywhere just to prove something like this to you..

Lol waitt I'm not saying its perfect or as good as running on 1000

Games is the only place it lags to a point where I can't take it

But I browse the internet (dolphin hd) and I use this app to get on here and I listen to music and txt and its all good now its not 100% perfect or very very very smooth but its really acceptable like I use it like this all the time so it should b acceptable

Now that I'm on ICS, 100/1200 ondemand with Up Threshold at 40% to help reduce lag.

BTW, my phone likes 1.6ghz (Tegrak), although I have not run it at that speed in a while. :)
[Epic 4G General] tkoreaper:
Unless you guys are seeing something I'm not, I see no difference between 800 and 1400... none at all. Not even when playing games or movies. Lowest I've tried is 800, but I'm sure I can tolerate lower.

The key, IMO, is the lower speeds (What your phone sets itself to when you're not using it). I typically go 100 - 800 with 100/200 at -125.
[Epic 4G General] XxLostSoulxX:
What kernel are you using Apro's is designed to be stockish experience, Shadow is more stable because has minimal features, and Samurai has a lot of features and is stable depending on what you do, but OC is the best experience on that Kernel.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Jade Eyed Wolf:
Considering, from a hardware standpoint, how similar the Note and the 7.7 are, has anyone thought to maybe make a Honeycomb 3.2 ROM for the Note based off of a 7.7 build?

Can this be done? What are the implications? What are the technical hurdles? Is it worth it?

Thoughts and comments appreciated, and perhaps developer intrigue would be a bonus!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dwboston:
Honeycomb was tablet-only, so at the very least, you'd likely lose all phone functionality.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] lxxxxxr:
Why do you think so? As far as I know Galaxy tab 7.7 is capable of making phone calls too...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] itsjusttim:
Yes it is!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Jade Eyed Wolf:
Exactly my point! Since the 7.7, specifically the P6800, (which I own btw and it is fantastic) is a fully functioning phone in every respect, why couldn't we make a Note compatible port of its ROM?

I mean, I'm sure that once the Note does officially receive ICS, it'll be 5 minutes before someone here changes the DPI setting so that we'll effectively have full blown tablet ICS running on the Note, which is going to be awesome of course! But who knows how long that will take before we actually get ICS?

Hence my whole reasoning behind creating this post in the first place.

With Honeycomb running on the 7.7, you really do have the best of both worlds; you have a true tablet (I say this because, having used both devices, I really feel that the Note is more of a huge phone than a small tablet), and it just so happens that that tablet can double as your phone! Brilliant!

Thus, I think it would be awesome to bring Honeycomb (assuming it's even possible) to the Note. You would be able to take advantage of native hardware acceleration for the UI, as well as getting the benefit of a full tablet OS on your device, and all without sacrificing your ability to make and receive normal phone calls and SMS/MMS.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] geonahta:
The ics Cyano ROM came about only after a leak. I doubt we will see a leak of HC as all efforts of Samsung are on the ics. And no developer would build from scratch a ROM with the ics a few weeks.

Cool idea but it will not happen.

OTOH I would love to see ics parts transferred to out GB . Gmail and browser, but they are depending on kernel, so that will not happen either.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Jade Eyed Wolf:
True, but the CM9 ROM for the Note is an AOSP build, which is why so many things aren't working, due to hardware driver issues and such.

With a potential HC 3.2 port from the 7.7, considering the hardware similarities, that could be maybe easier and quicker to do? I'm not a dev, so I don't know... That's kinda why I was hoping for some thoughts and opinions from a ROM cooker or dev.

Here's to hoping!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] LordManhattan:
Not worth it. Honeycomb is dead, and all tablets will get ICS. It's a waste of time, and we should concentrate on ICS.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Jade Eyed Wolf:
I guess... At the very least, I wonder if it's possible to cannibalize the HC drivers from the 7.7 to work with the CM9 Alpha for the Note?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] LordManhattan:
I have no idea, so someone else has to answer you on that one :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] rquinn19:
Biggest problem I foresee is the same reason why there was no CM8. No HC source. But I don't know much just taking a guess.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] JamieD81:
they released HC source when they released ICS source.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] rquinn19:
My bad. I missed that
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] awesome-member:
I don't think this is a good idea, HC was ridiculously difficult to port on Soc's other than TEGRA 2. I doubt it can be done before the official ics is released. What we should be putting more effort is on the CM9 port.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -Abuse-:
:eek: :(

well, i hope someone here will be able to assist me... having troubles.

I was previously running SHIFT A0SP without any issues and figured I would give Gingeritis 3D a shot since I've been using the same rom for a while.

Well, I downloaded the ROM zip, confirmed the MD5 and then flashed (after wiping everything). After reboot, it just sits loading on the white HTC screen and then reboots itself after a while.

Any thoughts? I tried holding down the volume rocker and the power key to get to the HBOOT screen so I could install a backup etc. However, there must be a recent radio on my SD card which is auto asking to install. Any way to get the HBOOT screen so I can actually use it w/ the PG05IMG.zip on the SD card?

I don't have any external drive to read the SD card etc. to delete that zip.

Thanks
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CanesDrew:
Do you have an old phone you can put the sd card into and delete it via your computer?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -Abuse-:
i don't :/

I also tried removing the SD card and booting to the HBOOT menu. This allows the menu to come up and use it. However, I cannot pull the battery (even with the phone plugged in) to put the SD card back in... I saw this done on a youtube video, but it doesn't work... My phone powers off if I pull the battery.

Still stuck...
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CanesDrew:
Best thing I can recommend is to borrow a phone with an sd card and use it to access your card. You won't even need a computer. If its android, just download any file manager from the app store. Find the PG05IMG file and rename it or delete it.

Presto. You're fixed. Now just download another Rom or reload another Rom on your sd card.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -Abuse-:
I'm back. I was able to trick with the SD card and battery to get into the HBOOT menu without it auto loading the radio.

To share, since it could help others in the future... What I basically did, and took a lot of trial and error, was seating the SD card about 85% into the slot, so not enough for it to be recognized. Then, hold the battery on a slightly angle, enough for the contacts to touch, but not enough to push the SD card all the way into the slot. That's the tricky part. Once you get to the HBOOT menu, very carefully navigate to restore, after the reboot, push the battery all the way in and it will also push the SD card fully into the slot.

Now, you can recover backup.

Took a lot of tries as I kept losing the battery connection and it powered off or the SD card made contact and loaded the radio. It worked though as I did not have access to another phone.

Hope this may help someone else in the future.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Daniel.galvez:
I had this problem too, and i freaked out! Dont worry, its all good! What happened is that you flashed it incorrectly. I dont know what i did wrong, i dont know what you did wrong, it doesnt matter. Anyway, you wiped your phone and now its trying to reboot but there isnt an Operating system on the phone, so it wont get passed the splash screen. Simply boot back into recovery and flash the gingeritis rom again. Reboot, and you should be all set! Good luck!
[Acer Iconia A500] ibawanzingee:
Hi everyone,

I was using my Samsung mini usb drive on my Android Tablet (Honeycomb 3.2.1) and the drive stopped working on my pc. Every time it now I get a BSOD, but it still connects to my tablet just fine. I was using ES File explorer, transferring a movie when this problem first occurred.

So far, I have found no mention of being able to hack the tablet to support mass storage (assigning a drive letter) and I can find no other way to format. I was actually hoping I could find an app on the market, but one such as this doesn't exist.

Please help me being back the full functionality of my external drive, guys!

Btw, the external drive is now formatted to General Hierarchical, like the tablet itself.

Thanks so much!

AFAIK these Samsung drives use an unusual block size. I have the S1 with 120gig that could not run on my Nintendo Wii. These drives can be troublesome especially on XP. There is a special tool from Samsung for formatting.

But a recent version of GParted will do also. But after formatting it will still use this special block size. There is no way to get rid of it.

Ok dincdoes.me and se_ebel_portolkyz, thanks for the replies. :)

I thought of posting this in Q&A, but I thought it was more technical in nature than "how do you do this?" or "how do you hack the battery icon?" or whatever is usually in that section.

It's funny se_ebel_portolkyz, I have a Wii as well, and my drive is the S1 mini, 250GB and it wouldn't work on the Wii. I'll try the tools you guys recommended, but the Acer shows up as an external device with no drive letter and then the Samsung shows up inside that, so I'm not sure how I'm going to get access to it to format it. :/

I'll continue to work on this problem though and again, thanks.

I'm also using n64oid to play mah favorite n64 games (Star Wars Podracing, Smash Bros- hell yeah!), but the analog sticks are KILLING me. They are unable to register "degrees of input" (as in lightly pressed or pressed hard) and thus both analog sticks only register as if they are moved to an extreme.
