[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Whiskeyjack4855:
The note was released ten months ago but still its gpu is better than all the others except sgs3 and and maybe one x..

Btw do you even own a note?? Did you every notice any lag in any game?? :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kangal:
The NOTE's and SGS3's GPU are the same.

However, the S3 is built on a smaller 32nm die-size, so it means it uses less space and less power for same performance. Samsung uses this advantage to clock the frequency much higher than the NOTE (which is built on a 45nm die).

Also, the S3 implements a new, updated driver for the gpu and squeezes more performance out. This was a same move Samsung made with the SGX540, which is also a very fast gpu. The original SGS was clocked real-low and had outdated drivers... after stealing the driver sources from the LG with OMAP 4440 SoC, the SGS (with 4.0.3) was performing in the same league as the 2011/2012 devices.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Whiskeyjack4855:
I know that that both the note and sgs3 has same gpu.. But the one in sgs3 its more powerful cause you said it's overclocked and has better drivers..

Btw do you know why the mali in sgs3 gets so high benchmark scores even wih the 720p screen? I mean is it all due to oc and better drivers?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kangal:
Better drivers + a little O'C makes the overwhelming difference.

I mean the NOTE comes with *only* 2 cores and *slow* gpu... after I customized it, its running toe-to-toe with the HTC One X (Tegra3).

An easier way to understand is to look at the new RIM PlayBook.

It's got the same processor as the Gnex (Galaxy Nexus) however its much much faster, especially in browsing. It decimates it. It even decimates the ASUS Transformer Prime Infinity (O'C Tegra3 + ICS).... or the Nexus7 (U'C Tegra3 + JBean).

You are only as fast as your slowest component. In the case of Android, its the high-level (slow) implemented software.

= Getting a faster soc with more cores and more ram doesn't really increase performance that much.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Whiskeyjack4855:
By toe to toe with the one x do you mean benchmarks :D or real life perfomance..

Hey one thing more..aren't you a engadget reader?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kangal:
Both.

But I don't live by the benchmarks. I mean have you tried some of the HD Apps from TegraZone. On stock TouchWizz, the NOTE really struggles. With a custom setup, I don't get much/any problems.

Yeah, I do frequent engadget... also on heaps of other sites.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Whiskeyjack4855:
Would you be kind enough to educate me about your setup?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g2tegg:
Exactly. Even though the Playbook has its many flaws (owned two both with screen/USB issues) it was a powerhouse. Multimedia was outstanding and web surfing was by far the fastest.

But the OS, QNX, is to thank for that. If the Playbook was running android it would be nothing out of the ordinary. As much as I love Android it really is not as efficiant as QNX

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarianoQT:
Recently I had a doubt about if it's possible to unlock the 2 locked remaining cores in the Galaxy Note N7000? Because I realize that the Note only uses 2 of the 4 GPU cores... It's there a possibility to do this? How?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loorish:

[XPERIA X8 General] exebreez:
Before saying about these roms, wait until they are final.

For now i think the SEMC one is the best, BUT i think a full working miui 4.0.3 could be such a win for us.

I love the x8 section! :b

Hey guys, so this awesome game was recently released on Android. Strangely, on the market it shows to be incompatible with our device whereas.in truth it works well.

Now, here's a problem many have faced - one NEEDS an internet connection to even play the game, whereas the iPhone version doesn't! What's more we don't have the 1000 cash bonus when we first play the game, that iPhone users actually do receive. Is there a way someone could mod the apk?

Oh btw it's not warez, it's a free app xD

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] kingofall00:
I am the type of guy who trys a rom for a few days then moves on to another. One thing i have hated is loosing my apps, and game saves for them also. I use titanium backup, but alot of times it doesn't back up my game saves. Also my issue with titanium back up is when i restore my apps i have to manually select install on all the apps i add.

Im looking for a way to hook my phone to my computer and MOST importantly back up my sms and photos. but would also love to back up my apps and game saves. is there a better option then titanium backup?

thank you
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] nasapunk88:
For 1 get titanium backup pro! you will not regret it. This will allow auto backup/restore and you wont have to click to restore 1 at a time.

Depending on where the app saves data, Titanium backup will store your game files. However big games (gameloft etc) store files on ur sdcard.

What I do is backup my sdcard + Titanium backup. This should basically get everything. And in many apps you can backup setting's manually to sdcard (most launchers,GOSmS,etc).

I use a program called Allway Sync. Anything would work (or just copy entire drive every time) but this is how i have it setup. I plug in my phone to computer. SDcard gets H: , External SDcard gets I: and with Allway Sync it just does a 1 way backup to a folder on my computer (propagating changes and deletions). This way if i haven't changed much since last backup it will be done in under a minute instead of re-copying 10+gigs.

Then you can get more detailed with Allway Sync settings and exclude the junk folders (cache,tmp, etc) so it slims your backup down more making it clean.

Once I change rom's or anything I switch direction on Allway sync and copy files back onto sdcard's and then use Titanium Backup Pro to restore all app's.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] kingofall00:
Wonderful idea. i will look into all that. thank you very much
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Peter_Le:
Can u please show me how can i restore the back up with titanium back up bro? When i wipe all data to flash a new rom, so do i need to reinstall titanium back up and just go there to restore all data?

Thank you
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] qwertyaas:
Install TiBu, then batch restore. Only backup user apps and data. That will restore everything from the app and it will do it automatically.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] skatin707:
Miui backup is the best by far, but you have to be using miui.

Incredible 2 Custom Recovery Installer

Download removed until bugs fixed.

Requirements

Operating System: Windows XP with .NET 2.0, Windows Vista, Windows 7

MUST RUN AS ADMIN TO INSTALL DRIVERS!

Changelog

v12.02.23.2

1. Fixed deadlock when app starts without ADB server already running, added start-up status window.

2. Automatically scan for devices after installing drivers.

v12.02.23

Initial Release

Summary

This tool allows you to try out different recoveries very easily. I was frustrated with the different methods for downloading and installing different recoveries and didn't like that there wasn't really a central place to find them so I wrote this tool to use ADB and Fastboot to very quickly switch between them. This tool is very far from done and more features and probably a complete overhaul are at some point in the near future.

Bugs

1. Cannot select between different devices although it appears to allow you to do so. It might flash to a different phone if you have more than one hooked up in fastboot mode.

2. Doesn't actually check to see if the phone is an Inc 2.

3. Sometimes the recoveries get unlocked even though the phone isn't in fastboot mode, if you click one of them fastboot.exe will wait on the phone forever and freeze the program.

Upcoming Improvements

1. Much improved download size.

2. Ability to try recoveries before flashing them.

3. Threaded device state monitoring - gets rid of prompts and keeps the app from freezing.

4. Ability to select between multiple devices.

5. Eventually a better GUI.

6. More consistency throughout the program.

Thanks for pointing out the bug. It was the middle of the night and I was tired, didn't think to try to start the app without ADB already running. Should be fixed now in the first post.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] werdna87:
still not working for me :eek: same problem
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] FC127:
OP,

Are we supposed to manually install the drivers? If so, the x64 drivers will not install, even when run as administrator.

I am also getting the same result with the new files. I even tried killing and starting adb to no avail.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Grouper:
Start ADB before running the program and let me know if that works. I did find the problem you were having and solved it on my end. Do you see a window that says "Starting ADB . . ." when you run the program? If not, make sure you're running the current version.

Make sure your phone is plugged in before installing the drivers. You might need to uninstall other drivers first or you might not need to install the drivers at all. Does it find your phone if you just skip the driver installation?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] FC127:
Still no go on two different computers both Win7 x64... If I try to install the drivers separately it says that the drivers cannot be installed.

Edit: Upon further investigation, I tried to manually install again by directing the device manager to the EXACT file and this is what I get.

[/URL][/IMG]
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Grouper:
You shouldn't have to install the drivers just to get the program to open. Can you describe exactly what's happening?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] FC127:
Yeah, I know... When I try to open your exe file it immediately says the program is not responding. I have tried to execute as administrator and run in compatibility mode.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] werdna87:
I have the same issue stated here
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Grouper:
Alright, removed the download link. Guess I'll have to setup a VM to figure this out. It works for me with the included drivers OR the "My HTC" drivers and I'm not having any issues with the app freezing so it must be something about this setup.

[Motorola Droid 4] cellzealot:
Hi leo like I said above, you can get to all the menus easily with shortcuts but GSM mode is disabled in the radio so that won't work.

[Motorola Droid 4] highlandsun:
GSM requires more than a simple "unlock" - Motorola makes multiple different sets of radio firmware for this hardware. The GSM firmware is completely separate and totally absent from our radio image.
[Motorola Droid 4] seventieslord:
Can the gsm firmware be added somehow? It is the only way I'll ever be able to use this phone with my provider.

And it's not like I have any other good options for dual core sliders...
[Motorola Droid 4] cellzealot:
Droid 3 is a dual core slider with full GSM global capability and will be much easier to get working anywhere you might be than the D4.

There are rumors about GSM being enabled in the firmware with an update, but the radios are signed images and virtually impossible to write your own or even a modified image.
