[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Aali1011:
So my apologies for asking this question. What i am looking to do though is improve over all experience for my brother with his phone. Ideally and this is me talking in reference to what i have seen in the Fascinate community. I want a good daily driver that is going to improve over all performance and have the ability to over clock and under volt possibly a different radio as well. I see the Tiamat Kernel but correct me if i am wrong that is only for AOSP roms. I personally love the idea of AOSP but for my brother the phone giving issue in any way is not a option. Again based off the Fascinate Dev community i know our touchwiz based roms in comparison to the AOSP stuff is much more manageable in case anything arises. I only hope that somebody in the community here who reads this is familiar with the Fascinate and can better help my decision. Thank you in advance.

Edit** Just noticed that nitsuj17 is a dev here so hopefully he can chime in. His roms on the fascinate were perfect for daily driving and stability.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] sjpritch25:
Most of the Sense ROM's don't need to be overclocked and undervolted. Most of my favorite have custom kernals modded for the ROM. I've tried overclocking, but it seems to work better with the kernal that comes with it.

AOSP, i enjoy overclocking and undervolting. However, i think testing is the most important thing.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] faehsemc:
Drellisdee has the best kernel for sense #21 IMO. Nitsuj "m" Rom is an amazing stock modded Rom.. I received excellent battery with that kernel and Rom... Then I always OC/UV to 1.3Ghz and -50mv on all voltages with that kernel
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] faehsemc:
Also Smartassv2 Gov
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Aali1011:
Awesome appreciate it guys. Did all the work tonight and did what faehsemc said. Man downgrading to 2.3.3 was a pain.Only issue i am having now is i can't get android wifi tether to work is this a known problem of sorts? The devices trying to connect continue to try to get a ip address.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] faehsemc:
I haven't had any issues with tether.. I use wireless tether 2.0.7
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Aali1011:
ahhhh i was trying to use one of the beta builds. i will try to do that before my brother leaves. thank you again.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Amphibliam:
I use what is in my sig at stock clock speeds with smartassv2 gov and UV -100 across the board. My phone takes UV like its nothing but if I OC over about 1.3 or 1.4 it locks up within 5 min.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Aali1011:
I would like to say that i did undervolt it. No offense to the developer of incredicontrol but it could use a better GUI. Correct me if i am wrong though but you have to use incredicontrol in conjunction with something like voltage control. I figured voltage control would have done the overclocking and voltage setting but it will only do the overclocking, governor, and scheduler stuff. I think setcpu does it all but given that it is my brothers phone i didn't purchase the app. Like i said though the only issue i was having was wi fi tether. So as someone mentioned above he was using the 2.xx version versus the 3.xx betas. If someone can confirm whether or not which version of wifi tether is broken or not i would greatly appreciate it. I don't want to clutter the forum with another thread.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chickeneaterguy:
Which of the ROMs available in the development area will provide me with the greatest battery life? (without loss of important features or anything)
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] decker39:
I personally prefer Nottachtrix, it's fast as hell and awsome battery life
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dyno0919:
You could take a look at the Neutrino ROM. It is missing features, though there are plenty of add-ons that you could easily download to suit your needs. Other than that it's extremely compact and snappy, and (so I've heard) the black and white theme actually helps out battery life tremendously.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chickeneaterguy:
This is for my girlfriend's phone. I can't test these out realtime, but I put the light Neutrino on it and it didn't last a whole day. Got Aqua on there and the battery life on there doesn't seem to be exquisite either.

Gonna try out Nottachtrix when I get the chance.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dyno0919:
ROMS generally take a few days to show their full battery potential. In other words, when you install a new ROM you should charge it to 100% (before installing), delete the battery stats, and discharge all the way through until it turns off. Charge it all the way to 100% and discharge to 0% for a few cycles and you'll begin to see more accurate battery performance. Installing a ROM for one day and then installing another the next isn't going to tell you anything about true battery performance. It needs a little bit of time, just like it took a few cycles when she first got her phone for the battery to last its full amount.

Neutrino and CM7 should generally be lasting a whole day, if not 2 days. I am on a CM9 based ROM and even my battery lasts from 6 in the morning to 12 at night. As I've stated, it takes a bit of time for the battery to shine.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rtg293:
I get pretty decent battery life out of The Darkside Prefinal. From 6am-10pm with about an hour or so charging inbetween I usually have about 40% or so left. Neutrino ROM has been pretty good to me too. About 35%-30% left in the same time frame mentioned earlier
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] snjagor:
Anyone get pDroid http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1357056 working on GingerBangSense or a ROM close to it?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] snjagor:
Well after trying the pDroid Virtuous Affinity patch which broke the rom, i used the pDroid patch generator on the GingerBangSense ROM and it worked! Just make sure to mount the system in recovery before installing the zip patch.

pDroid works a charm now :D
[TouchPad Themes and Apps] SCWells72:
I'd really like to have Dungeon Hunter 2 running on my TouchPad but hesitate to grab it before knowing whether someone else has already confirmed that it works and which device to claim to be when purchasing it. In particular I'm talking about a TouchPad running CM9/ICS. Any thoughts?
[TouchPad Themes and Apps] dcherryholmes:
I just ran into the same thing. I'd like to purchase it legally, but it can only be purchased from Game Loft's website, not from the marketplace, and they require you to choose manufacturer and model from dropdown menus before proceeding. Needless to say, CM9 Touchpad isn't on the list.

I tried grabbing some torrents of the game just to see if it would work, which was hit or miss. Many would not install. The one that did, a 1.0.6 version, failed on the huge download upon first running the game.
[Acer Iconia A500] MadMax5:
Hey folks,

I am using this [ROM][ICS4.0.3] Taboonay 3.0.1 (28/02/2012)

on my Iconia a501.

Works really great. Fast and smooth... great job.

I know this Rom is based on the a500 Rom.

So my 3g is not working (or should it?)... anyway, is there a way to get it working?

I already installed the test_a501.zip

Thanks for all answers.
[Acer Iconia A500] Calicodesiles:
Got exactly the same problem. Installed A501 Patch but doesn't seem to have any effect. Is there anything else to do in order to make it work ?
[Acer Iconia A500] Raptor.X:
+1

Need update plz
[Acer Iconia A500] bfranklin1986:
There are 3 things you can do to try and resolve this problem.

A) make Acer release the official update

2) hack into Acers systems and find a leak for a501

C) learn how to code and fix it
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
The current ICS roms only support the a500 at this time. This is most likely kernel related and rom related.

The "fix" zips, were only for testing purposes. If people would read the thread, they would've seen the fix's didn't work. Now you have a somewhat modified kernel on your tab which may or may not give you issues.

Until Acer releases or "leaks" an ICS a501 rom, we are stuck with 3.2.1.
[Acer Iconia A500] MadMax5:
Ok,

First of all, thanks bfranklin for your smashing proposal...

I thought the 3g modem in the asus tab and the modem of Iconia tab are identic and it is possible to use that driver for the a501 for example. :rolleyes:
[Acer Iconia A500] querobolo:
try to take the scripts and drivers form loak 3.0.1 and put in the same folders on your ROM
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
Need some help with emulator.

I have SDK running on my PC. Did set up API 15 ICS emulator.

But every time when I try to push a system app to emulator to test it I'm getting same message:

failed to copy xyz.apk to /system/app out of memory.

In menu->system settings-> storage it shows over 100 MB available internal memory but I can't install any system app.

Did remount system as rw and did chmod 777 /system/app folder.

Nothing works.

Any help and/or advice is greatly appreciated.

For those of you who've been waiting for the Seidio Active / Active Combo cases are now out. http://www.seidioonline.com/category-s/7709.htm

I'm waiting for the Active Combo with Kickstand. Should come out here soon enough.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Techvir:
This happened a few days ago.

@Taptalk-GalaxyNote
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] reubenray:
Are there any pictures of the holster? I need something that the Note actually goes into and not just snapped in place.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] MrDSL:
check out pics of the holster for the other phones..they are all the same design..nice felt the screen lays against and the bottom part of the phone on both corners will slide into it and the top clips...you'll see in the pics..

the holster/case combo is really nice..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kimtyson:
I have the Active and holster for my Inspire 4G. It's a really good case and holster. The Note one looks exactly the same so buy with confidence.

what exactly is the combo? that includes the holster?

because holster doesnt seem available for ATnT version

Let us know how you like your active case when you receive it. I use a TPU case for both of my GNotes and I can confirm all the cutouts are the same; mics, etc.

I am bummed they do not have the surface combo out...

I found that on eBay, and it's from a US based company too.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] p51d007:
The combo case arrived Wednesday. FITS PERFECT! I think it is a little less bulk than the Speck case I was using (from at&t). Holes for the microphones, camera, speaker, LED are lined up perfectly. Nice snug fit in the belt clip case too.

The bottom sits into the holster, and on the other end is a spring loaded clip that snaps over the top of the phone, securely holding it in place.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] planoman:
Thank p51!

I love the combo. Is the phone pocketable with the active case if I want to go without the holster. How big is it on the belt. Pics would be super! Thank p51!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Phoneguy589:
I just got my active combo today too.....fits really good. The Speck case seems to be a little more sturdier/rigid, AND it fits in the active holster perfectly if anyone wants to use the speck case and have a holster.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SayWhat10:
so um, for the ones that got it, why the heck arent yall posting pics??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] planoman:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] reubenray:
Does the Note fit into the holster real tight? A co-worker of mine lost his phone (not a Note) in a holster similar to this one. It was there and then it was gone. We could not find it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] MrDSL:
I've had a seido holster combo on my evo for almost 2 years and it never came off the holster unless released it.

You do however have to watch that you dont just get a bit of your shirt in between the phone and holster when you snap it..that could cause it to happen. No fault of the holster though.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] planoman:

Seidio Active Combo

Seidio With Speck Case and Active holster
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Uncle Irish:
@Phoneguy

Is the rubber firm or flimsy? My wife got an Otterbox for her Skyocket and they rubber part has been MUCH improved. It was actually difficult to get it on. Rigid, firm and tight fitting.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SayWhat10:
from the pics the seidio looks thin, i like
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] firemedic1343:
How is the size compared to the Reiko?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] californiarailroader:
The Seidio Active cases are not thin, they are well built and tough, but definitely not thin.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] planoman:
As I have stated, I have owned several of these, but usually have a coupon when I buy them. I asked them for a 20% coupon since the case was not out when they had a 20% off coupon in February. They said no but could give me 15% as a repeat buyer but you have to call to get it.

I called and the Rep on the phone was not very helpful or competent getting the discount to go through and acting like she was doing me a favor... By the time she got it to go through I was irritated. I decided not to get it and will wait for a 20% off coupon. And I was going to get 2 combo sets.

Anyone have experience with the case mate tough cases? I looked at the speck case at ATT but I thought the sides were slippery.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Phoneguy589:
The inner rubber of the Seidio case is thin. The brace thing around it is pretty good but I had bought the Speck case already so I tried it in the active holster and it fits perfect. I thought about getting the active with the kickstand but I might wait to see of they come out with the surface case.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Kromatrix:
DO NOT GO WITH SPECK! Horrible, horrible case. Scratches and scuffs easily, feels like you're about to break the phone getting it off too.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] planoman:
I went to see it at ATT store. Looks like it offers good protection but it was slippery on the sides and I have heard others talk about how the outside gets pretty marked up and it is hard to put on and off which makes switching between my two models more difficult. Thanks for your input!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] MrDSL:
besides that i think my at&t store wanted like $40 bucs for that POS!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] planoman:
Interesting find on Seidio Active Combo

I posted earlier how I was disappointed in the lack of a good current coupon for a Seidio Active combo.

Turns out that Google really is your friend. I found and ordered the same product from this vendor. The price represents a 30% discount to Seidio's price. I also did not have to pay sales tax (sorry New Yorkers) that I would if I had ordered from Seidio. (They are in Texas).

They also accept paypal which made it super easy to order! If you are interested in this combo, this might save you a bit of money.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Chief Geek:
Backordered :-(

So those of you who have gotton them, everyone happy so far? I'm trying to decide whether to order one or hold out for otterbox. I've always been an an otterbox defender fan, but if I can get this for <$40 it may be worth trying as I have family that swear by seidio.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SayWhat10:
i ordered the holster only

hopefully it will work with my other cases
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Chief Geek:
But they do have the active case only sans holster for just over $20, thats pretty good, but i still need a holster.

Seidio Active Case for Samsung Galaxy Note (Black) $21.99

Seidio Active Case / Holster Combo for Samsung Galaxy Note (Black) $34.99
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lJesseCusterl:
Good luck. The chances of a Defender being released for this phone are slim. I have a Seidio Active on my Atrix 4G (over a year now) and it's hands-down one of my favorite cases of all time (used to have Ivyskins, Specks, Otterboxes, and even the real carbon fiber ones on my iPhones). A really good amount of protection with very little added bulk. Easy to remove for cleaning and has survived multiple drops.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] drblack2013:
For those of you who have it, how bulky is it in your pocket? I'm using an S-line TPU case right now but it doesn't really offer protection from drops, but it slides right into my pocket without me ever knowing it's there.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] reubenray:
After looking for a holster that will work with my Reiko case and not finding one I ordered the Seidio Combo pack from Amazon. Apparently they are out of stock being it will not be delivered for about 4 weeks.

Will the holster work with the Reiko case?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Chief Geek:
I'm about done waiting for Otter and Trident, I just don't think I can sit and wait on their projected time lines. About to pull the trigger on this case so any follow ups from those who have ordered would be fantastic, pictures too would be great! Hows the holster work, pretty secure?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Synapse777:
Its not bulky it all. It feels good in the pocket, the case fits very snugly and feels very solid. Highly recommended.

I think this case is the best balance of protection and form factor possible. I have a TPU case, this seidio case and the reiko massive case for comparison.

Thx so much, although it looks like on the website they don't have the added camera protection along with the other coverings? Correct me if I'm wrong because I will buy this case in a heartbeat if the pt series is available to buy
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] derrick_:
the covert/defense series does have a rubber flap to cover the camera when not in use.

however, there are no such cases available for the note. my educated (lol) guess is that seido has to get manufacturing in full swing and fill their own stocks a bit before the platinum branded ones show up.

The cases is designed to fit in the holster face in to help protect the screen incase you bump into something. The holsters are felt lined to keep from scratching the screen as well.

why on gods green earth are you using that screen out? its clearly made to face in (even says so in multiple places on the packaging.

not a comparison, but you would be astounded by the number of people i have come into/go out of my store with otterboxes and have the screens facing out, who have stories of the otter boxes being very good, but could be better if they protected the screen more since they have broken a few phones by running into things.

you think those people would learn.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Phoneguy589:
I originally posted regular pics but someone asked about how it fit facing out. I like how the otterbox's holster can be used as a stand but if I'm in my truck I can clip my holster to my visor and watch Netflix.
