I guess you should define the terms first...

ROM Cookers (also known as ROM Chefs) are actually the guys (or gals) who _REALLY_ build their own ROMs out of the source and even code up extensions or add features. Take nobodyAtall, doixanh, paul-xxx or larkkarl as an example here - that are REAL devs. alfsamsung, who "just" provides a kernel, is also a REAL developer.

The others who take a ROM to only mod it into the shape they so much desire or feel like to satisfy a particular itch (which is the majority of ROMs you will find in the development section) aren't ROM Cookers or ROM Chefs per se (in my opinion) - they are "Modders". They only add or remove packages to a pre-built ROM.

However, the definition of a "Dev" seems to be very blurred in XDA terms.
[XPERIA X8 General] - Swift -:
Agreed. :)
[XPERIA X8 General] wilbso:
Nice explanation :)

And yes, the definition of Dev is actually, yes blurred, but also tossed around with another word 'kang' (if you know what i mean)

People have been 'kanging' pre-built ROM'S and modded them and changed framework or build.prop etc.......

For example this thread

He says it's good news, when he doesn't know that it is a kanged (stolen) ROM from paul's ICS

The word 'kanged' means Stolen (in XDA). So the thread saying that it is good news is only cuz he dont know that that the so called 'dev' stole Pauls ICS ROM, and just modded it etc

Anyway,

Agreed ;)

I don't understand why my battery lasts only 7hrs! I only use my prime to surf, and I use also tapatalk and fb messenger, with push email.

I set balanced mode, with ips+ on and half brightness. I remember my old ipad lasted about 2 days :(

Do you think my battery has some problem?

Should I send my prime in rma?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] crystalstylez:
Its because you have super ips on. You don't need to have that on unless you are outside in sunlight.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] cordell507:
exactly what he said ips+ is a huge battery hog turn it off and set it to auto and you will get much better battery
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] chriswbush:
Yeah dude its super ips+ turn it off you'll see the result

Ok I'll try. But with auto brightness I see nothing :-D

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nyijedi:
Just turn off Super IPS. You don't have to use auto brightness. Just don't needlessly max out the brightness.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kwazytazz:

I have the same problem, but i dont have super ips on. wifi is also turned off. brightness is set to around 20%, i use my tablet for my etextbooks, so 2 hours of it on using ezPdf reader i lose 30% already -_-

[HTC Titan] Strike_Eagle:
Alright, i am not a stranger in this subforum anyway so i will kick this in right away.

My Eternity served me very well in GPS Navigation Before (last month, it helped me take the journey to a brand new City to take a TOEFL test and returned home safely)

But now, i just realized it yesterday, when it failed to track down where i was on the road.

I mean, the 3G Signal is fine, i can surf web, i can search location on Bing Maps, but it fails to track down where i am. Sometime it will display something like "Sorry , Bing Maps can't ..." or it will show me somewhere not even close to my house ( i suppose it is where the tower of AT&T located.)

Somehow the GPS really fail on 3g, if i hook it up with a USB cable, or WIfi, it will show me kinda exactly where i am ( with a big circle covered up amount of area show the sign that the phone is not really sure where i am really located in that area)

I am on the latest update from HTC and Microsoft, anybody facing the same problem? I would like someword from someone use AT&T over here.

Thanks.

Here is the video:

[HTC Titan] prjkthack:
Wow dude. You are totally having too many issues. Gotta get a new device.

I have had literally zero issues with my Titan. And heck, the GPS lock on all my Windows Phones have been just fast and spot on, especially the Titan. This is whether I'm on 3G or 4G.

Bad luck?

Could be a temporary issue. I know every so often, GPS satellites will go crazy and just not work properly for a day or two and then be just fine.
[HTC Titan] Strike_Eagle:
HTC replied me with a message about letting the "Location" services on (which i always let it on) , so it is no help.

Anyway, i recognized yesterday that whenever i go outside , i will stuck on 3 bars for Signal (which i always had full bars when i went outside before)

Might it be the low-signal problem again?

I don't know if i might end up having the AT&T version which is slow on getting the update :(

And hey bro... how could you get the Lumia 800 that fast??? LOL
[HTC Titan] prjkthack:
Well the GPS radio does not require you to have a signal with your wireless carrier. GPS is separate from data/voice, but of course it does need the data connection to download maps and directions.

I don't know if the update will fix your issue as the release notes don't say they fix any GPS issues. I haven't heard many people having GPS issues to begin with, so I don't think its a massive issue. Maybe its interference from something around your house? What happens if you go elsewhere?

I got the Lumia because Microsoft/Nokia gave one to me. :D
[HTC Titan] Strike_Eagle:
Man, i walk out of the house, i get stuck in 3 bars when i normally have 5.

Then i drive around St.Pete , i get stuck in 3 bars no matter where i go./

That's sweet dude... i am currently still thinking about buying Nokia again since i have had bad experience with Nokia before.
[HTC Titan] prjkthack:
Weird. Maybe its the back plate? I read that the backplate has some contacts in it that help to increase overall phone reception, and that may include GPS reception. If you backplate isn't on the phone properly, then that may be causing interference, in which case, you may need to get a replacement backplate.
[HTC Titan] Strike_Eagle:
Ya, might be... but weird, i had had a really good experience with the phone , now it comes out like sh!t?

I should wait tomorrow and try it once more time, the HTC Supporter is gonna call me also. We'll see how it turns out.

Maybe you are right, sometime GPS got luggish for a little bit and be back normal after a few days.

/

Give me some Screenshots of your Lumia :D
[HTC Titan] prjkthack:
Probably not the most appropriate place for it but here ya go man...
[HTC Titan] Strike_Eagle:
Okay, screw this.

turn off 3G + Wifi = Normal GPS? dafuq
[HTC Titan] pjodm:
Maybe try to reboot your phone once a day or two, & all will be fine.

I had the same issue once with GPS, & after reboot, all went fine.

God luck
[HTC Titan] Strike_Eagle:
No bro... this thing is so hard to predict.

With 3G , i can get the position after quite awhile... with a big circle around... they normally point at somewhere else... really hard to get correct position.

With Wifi, it catch my position right away, but always with a big circle around... if i disconnect wifi and disconnect 3G too, it will be able to track me down for quite awhile...

Turn off everything before i track my position, i got nothing from the phone.

Hand down, this is kinda clear that i have Hardware failure... but strange... one month ago, it was still fine!

The stock player, Doubletwist and Winamp are all useless since there is no option to select which folder your music is in. Nothing shows up and you're stuck with that.

Poweramp is fantastic but it's not free.

Disappointed it's this difficult to find a decent music player. :mad:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tbran:

I've just never paid for software in my life and I don't want to start now.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] chriswbush:

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wifesabitch:

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] rand4ll:
You have never purchased a PC or Mac with preinstalled OS?

PowerAmp is still the best player I have found, well worth the very nominal fee. I took the stance at first on android that I also would not pay if there was a free alternative available, however after weighing the nominal price of the software on android and the benefits of some of the paid apps over their free alternatives I changed that. There is just no replacing some of the top quality paid apps which poweramp is one of.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lcuk:
Power Amp is IMO the best player in android.

If you want the get the best, Power Amp is the best choice.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wifesabitch:
Yup, guess I should say I've never directly paid for any software.

You're right, so far Poweramp is by FAR the best player around, actually, it's really the only player I found that can even play music.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dannb:
What, you don't think developers deserve to be paid for great software?

PowerAmp is streets ahead of all other music players available. 100% worth the money. It supports basically all media types, looks great and I simply cannot go to a player that does not have the equalizer settings that PowerAmp has.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Timberline:

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] d1ez3:
In your whole life? You never support any devs?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wifesabitch:
Sure, I guess. But I'll take the free route every time.

It really is the best out there from what I've tried.

I've said "Thanks" in numerous threads!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] irishtexmex:
I know it hasn't been updated in a while, but I'm a really big fan of UberMusic. It's a ZuneHD/WP7 clone and is an all around fantastic music player.

The quality of Android music players' UI is atrocious. It's like every developer downloaded Winamp in 1999 and has never used anything since.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] JayRBytheway:
power amp is beyond worth the five bucks it costs. Its not gonna break the bank to get it.

The streets ahead reference was so streets ahead!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] clouds5:
I really love the look and feel of the stock google music player that is built in, very nice. But there are 0 options... That kinda sucks.

I'd love to see something like ICS music player +. With just additional options.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] almightywhacko:
You can't buy a cup of coffee with a forum "Thanks" ;)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mummac:
Does Poweramp stream Internet radio stations?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] SteveG12543:
Nope.

Add another vote for Poweramp from me, definitely worth purchasing.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wifesabitch:
How do you even get music to show up?

I have all my music under sdcard/music and it doesn't pick it up and there are no options for me to direct it to it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wifesabitch:
Probably will just suck it up and buy Poweramp.

I'm still new to Android and not use to having to pay for anything since there is always a good free option with Windows PCs.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] rakeshchn:
PowerAmp is the only paid app of my 100 plus apps, simply because there is no free alternative to all vital things it can do as a music player....multiple folder options, fantastic EQ, bass/treble,best lockscreen player, now with player controls in status bar and extremely low battery usage. Well worth 5 bucks just for the sound quality.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] neckbonest:
i to was one of those people who only did the free apps till i stated rooting and all the good stuff.

i now buy every paid version(if there is one) not just for the suport but you get a much better app. power amp is the best out their and ive tried alot. the best part about buying an app is you can put it on anything linked to your gmail, only paying for it once.

SO PLEASE SHOW SOME SUPPORT TO ALL THE AWESOME DEVS OUT THEIR.

WITHOUT THEM WE MIGHT AS WELL BUY AN I PHONE:(
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] clouds5:
Strange sounds to me like the media scanner isn't working or something. My player (stock) detects all mp3 i have on storage. No matter what folder. I'd love to be able to reduce it to one folder though.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wifesabitch:
Good to know, thought I'd have to buy it for my phone too.

Poweramp picks everything's fine but the others players don't at all. :confused:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mummac:
*sigh* I wonder how many music players I'm going to wind up with.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] raylie:
I have the tablet with dock, mem card in both. I have winamp pro, and it's OK, but the Real Player now available (maybe still beta), is much the best, since it does music or videos with ease. I've had no problems. A few minutes ago, build .15 d/l here. Hope it doesn't screw things up.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wifesabitch:
I just bought Poweramp and installed it on my cellphone. Now I go to install it on my tablet and it's telling me "accept and buy" for $4.60. Do I have to pay again for another device?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] rand4ll:
If both devices are on the same Google account you don't have to buy again. Buy on one device, on the other go to market and then my apps and it should be in your list.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wifesabitch:
Same account, it was still telling me "accept and buy" and the price.

But got it fixed, just went on my Windows desktop, to the market on the browser and I was able to sent it to my tablet that way no problem.

Still curious why I can't get music to play AT ALL with any other players but the hell with it. I won't waste any of my time trying to figure that out.

What are the dangers and issues you could face from shutdowns like Quick Boot or battery pulls?

Currently, the ROM I'm on has an iffy shutdown so I use Quick Boot to bypass it but I just want to know what risks could come from it.

Thanks.
[General Questions and Answers] martonikaj:
The risks are minimal. I wouldn't worry about it unless you're pulling the battery several times a day... An app like Quick Boot doesn't do anything bad. All it does is effectively run a command to reboot the phone just like you would with ADB from a computer. There's nothing wrong with that.

What ROM do you have that won't shut down properly? Doesn't sound like a very stable ROM.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] privatewarrior1:
I'm just trying to figure out Att's new throttle policy.

Someone started the rumor that while talking to att's throttle department, they were told that it would be based on a person's last month's usage.

Each one of us was interpreting this differently. Some say you will only be throttled when you hit your last month usage. meaning if you used 30 gb then you can use up to 30 gb the following month. I thought it would be if your previous month's usage was in the top 5% then you are screwed this month. It seems counter productive for att to follow this policy. Everyone will be using as much data to have more speed the following month.

I did some research and could only find that att's policy was always to base the top 5% users on the previous month's statistics of their whole consumer base.

Can you guys confirm this? Especially for those who have been unthrottled. what is your previous months stat compared to this month?
