[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LoKKeR:
Hi guys. I'm going to buy a new phone because my Galaxy Ace don't satisfies me.

I'm a bit unsure about this 2 phones:

HTC EVO 3D or SAMSUNG GALAXY S2

I want buy htc because i very like sense, i like htc smartphones, it's quite similar with the s2, and have 3D (not very important but it can do video and photo in 3D :P) and i don't have so much money to buy s2.

But if i want s2 i only need to wait more time. (damn money >.<)

The question is Performance :(

S2 is very much speedy than HTC EVO?

Write me a comparison between cpu and vga of this 2 phones please. Thanks!!!!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netban:
SGSII

EDIT: plenty of comparisons on the world wide web, for example - HERE

Or even do a search here on xda!!

Not trying to be an ass, but this question has in my opinion been explained substantially!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anderew:
I don't have direct experience with those two phones, but my girlfriend has the s2 for att and I have the HTC rezound on verizon. I believe the processors are the same respectively for both, and I constantly compare our phones to see which is faster and tbh, there isn't much of a difference. Her s2 seems a little snappier at times but honestly, the difference isn't enough to make me jealous. If you like sense, I'd say go for the evo, if you want a larger super amoled screen, and feel like forking out more cash (I think the s2 is 200 where I work and the 3d is only 99) go for the samsung. Neither phone is a bad choice, and as far as performance, both will be amazingly quick compared to the phone you're coming from, and really not that far from each other in terms of performance.

Good luck choosing!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LoKKeR:
Thanks for all replys. I like this 2 phones and for me there isn't much differences. But i'm scared because i don't want EVO to will be lagger in game performance.

Ah, the qHD display of EVO looks better than the screen of the iphone right? I want a realy good resolution :P

Amoled is better than lcd but the resolution of evo is very noticeable compared to resolution of s2 right?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darklord20k:
I think u should wait for a short time, for the news phone, HTC one V :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LoKKeR:
Oh my god. Htc is copying iphone??? -.- My god... No microsd, need microsim and battery isn't removable. O my god. Why htc need to copy iphone... Looser...

Ah, this 3 model of htc cost too much for my money budget.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laminor:
In my opinion the best smart phone in SGSII:)

I never liked the HTC phone . Because they are very rough
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebobp:
Huawei announced the "fastest phone" ;) if that's what you're interested in. Rumor says it'll be stock ICS, and huawei is well-known for its low prices (though who knows if they'll continue that policy with their new high-ends). Seems to have pretty good resolution and size for gaming as well. You would, of course, have to wait till it comes out.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LoKKeR:
I don't want to wait anymore i'm bored >.<

I have decided i'll buy htc evo, because android don't need too much perfomance to play the mostest game right?

Ah, with ICS the perfomance of phones will improve??

I think huawei is a brand economic.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LoKKeR:
Please answer. This is my last question about ice scream.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] newTween:
im not sure that sg2 is best choice now. if i were u i would wait for sg3 (comming very soon) or buy s1. galaxy s is very good phone.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LoKKeR:
Hahhahaha, SG S is a good phone i know but updates are deads :|

And it will not get ICS... I trust HTC and i hope it will not delude me.

SGS2 is the best phone for now but HTC EVO 3D have same hardware and comes with a good software. And have 3D capacity. So i buy htc. Samsung have deluded me. Anyway the question is changed. ICS should not improve perfomance of all devices? So the EVO 3D with ICS should be very fast right?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nanchiboy:
Phones with ICS are going to be faster because of OS improvements as well as phone release time. There are benchmark results on youtube for the EVO 3D and any other device you're looking at. Based on the benchmarks, I'm sure you'll be very happy with the EVO 3D.
[Acer Iconia A500] aman11dhanpat:
alright finally i made up my mind for making android CLI app

now i want to make an app on linux , i can simply write a small CPP program

but what about android (Especially acer iconia)?

how should i begin

what are the tools required?

Thanks in advance
[Acer Iconia A500] erica_renee:
Not sure what your asking for exactly.

But if you have not developer.android.com. is a place you MUST Visit for all things android..
[Acer Iconia A500] haag498:
Android doesn't really work with CLI... You'll probably have to go with a GUI, and most apps are written in Java (other languages are somewhat tricky, as you have to use the JNI or IPC to use most android libs)... as mentioned above, you'll get the required tools on developer.android.com. Other than that: Android's libc is fundamentally broken, with many standard functions being unavailable or misbehaving -- a major cause of headaches.
[Acer Iconia A500] aman11dhanpat:
i am talking in general

for example "Busybox"

its written in C/C++

i just wanna know how to compile my own C code for android
[Acer Iconia A500] edscholl:
Busybox is a bit different, as it's not a user fronting app. For something like that, just cross compile to arm. I believe theres one in the ndk:

http://developer.android.com/sdk/ndk/index.html

You'll need the ndk for user fronting apps with c code as well, btw.

you can use other cross compilers as well:

https://sourcery.mentor.com/sgpp/lite/arm/portal/release324
[Acer Iconia A500] apapousek:
Hello, and welcome to the exciting world of Android Development! *insert sparkles*

In the Android world, CLI apps aren't the most popular. Making an app with a GUI would be a much easier starting point to some extent.

What you'll need:

1. A computer with the necessary software installed. This can be a Linux, Mac, or even Windows machine. In the case of a Windows machine, be sure you have the correct drivers installed. With the Linux machine, be sure you have the correct udev rules for the Iconia. Install the Android SDK. Install Eclipse, and the Android plugin.

It sounds like you want to run some native code as well. Use the Android NDK. There's a nice little beginner's guide here. Every good programmer starts with their first Hello, World!

2. Preferably some experience with Java. Almost all Android apps run on the Dalvik VM.

3. Patience. A lot of patience. Compiling takes time.

4. A device to test your code on. Running in an emulator is not good enough. Enable developer debugging on your device in the settings.

Hope this helped a bit.
[Acer Iconia A500] aman11dhanpat:
Thanks alot guys :D

now i guess i'll be able to make some of my own apps :D
[HTC EVO 3D] ozkaya:
Hi everyone,

This one took a bit too long to pull it off, but here it is.. As the title suggests it disables the Sense carousel animation (the quick rotation of all home screens) when you flick your finger quickly. Please don't confuse with disabling unlock carousel animation. It is for Sense 3.0 (Evo 3D of course) and S-OFF root users, I'm using it fine with latest Leedroid ROM. Flash the zip file and it should be all right. You should make a nandroid backup just in case. And please, hit the thanks button after ;)
[HTC EVO 3D] Jep4444:
What are the odds this works with 3.5?
[HTC EVO 3D] Formhault:
I hate this in Sense 3.0. It's neat, okay, but every time I wanna switch very fast between home screens, I end up having to wait 3-5 seconds until I get where I want... -.-

Is it 100% compatible with LeeDrOiD? I see the .zip contains the Rosie.apk, which is what LeeDrOiD Tweaks tinker with... but perhaps I'm wrong.

I'll try it later today, gotta charge & NANdroid first :D

---------- Post added at 07:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:57 PM ----------

Sense 3.5 has a new Rosie app, I believe, so... The odds are quite small :P
[HTC EVO 3D] Flashmaniac:
what is the advance of doing it?

already possible to disable it for long time.

~ LeeDroiD Tweaks ;)
[HTC EVO 3D] babeman123:
On HTC Evo 3D stock rom with sense 3.0 android 2.3.4, it boots up, but doesn't get past the rogers splash screen.. any tips?

It acts like its already booted because it goes to sleep and turns off the screen, and when I click the sleep button, it awakes but stays at the rogers splash while the capacitive lights light up

EDIT: If this helps at all I installed it via CWM 4.0.1.4 with revolutionary root and s-off
[HTC EVO 3D] ozkaya:
That one you're talking about should be unlock animation, this is different ;)
[HTC EVO 3D] babeman123:
Now it actually boots, but it won't let me go to the home screen, only to applications that I've set on the lockscreen.

EDIT: Yea please be aware anyone wanting to flash this on stock sense 3.0, 2.3.4 android, it won't work.
[HTC EVO 3D] ozkaya:
Thanks for the heads up, I've updated the OP that I tried with Leedroid ROM, it is possible that more than one version is necessary for different builds. Can you try deleting Rosie.odex from /system/app and restart?
[HTC EVO 3D] babeman123:
Yup I'll try that right now!

EDIT: How am I able to get access to the system directory? I looked through the directory after mounting the phone to my computer but then realised I'm just browsing my SD Card. I can't use an in phone file explorer because I can't access the market/home screen.

Thanks!
[HTC EVO 3D] ozkaya:
You need to connect to your phone through your PC with adb then.However, it might just be easier to restore your backup and delete with Root Explorer. Here is the adb route if you feel like trying:

adb shell mount -o remount,rw,codepage=utf8,vfat,xattr,check=no /dev/stl5 /system

adb shell

cd /system/app

rm Rosie.odex

exit
[HTC EVO 3D] ozkaya:
can anyone with Stock ROM (rooted,S-Off,Sense 3.0) try this v2 beta and give me feedback?
[HTC EVO 3D] grischkon:
again the same problem for me. it stops booting at the HTC bootanimantion and after a while it starts sleeping. if i press the sleep/wake button it just shows the htc boot-logo.
[HTC EVO 3D] ozkaya:
OK, from the feedback I receive it seems to be compatible with couple of Custom ROMs and not stock ROM. There are lots of build and Sense combinations so it is impossible to make a universal patch. I would have to make 5-6 different versions and honestly, from the attention and complaints it gathered, I think it's not worth it. People look happy with the animation I guess :) Anyway, if your on Leedroid or other compatible build you can flash and use it, but I don't plan to take this further to other phones or builds.
[HTC EVO 3D] Tones1971:
Yeah working fine on my leedroid. Very useful. I hated that carousel effect.
[HTC EVO 3D] LeeDroid:
If you want to use this mod on my builds you will need to patch my rosie as it will break tweaks ;)

Yeah it would be great to have this included in the next Leedroid tweaks version. I've been looking for ages for something like this! Great work O.P! :D
[HTC EVO 3D] xcountry:
+1 would be great if was a tweak you could toggle off.
[HTC EVO 3D] renzo.olivares:
what exactly does this do? does it really turn of the carousel animation? got a video or something? thanks
[HTC EVO 3D] ozkaya:
it does turn off the annoying carousel animation occurring when you're trying to change your homescreens quickly. sorry no video, honestly I don't know how to show/prove a disabled feature,say I might still be swiping below the threshold so no carousel animation occurs, guess you gotta see it yourself ;)
[HTC EVO 3D] mytie:
since this mod disables carousel rotation , maybe it is possible now to set a 1080x960 wallpaper (scrollable) in sense 3.0?
[HTC EVO 3D] darkblooded:
Hi my brother, what did you do to rosie.apk to disable this effect? I'm thinking of reverse effect, the phones that doesn't have this effect we may add it, for example my girlfriend's wildfire s, cause everyone enjoys too much with this effect, thanks. :)
[HTC EVO 3D] Formhault:
+1. I miss that from Sense 2.1 :(
[HTC EVO 3D] nabbed:
Could you post the method you used?

Or could you do the cdma rom Infected Eternity, v 193+ ?

Thanks.
[HTC EVO 3D] nabbed:
Maybe some crazy people. I'm very unhappy with that stupid animation.

How do I turn it off, or at least slow it down significantly in my rom?
[HTC EVO 3D] ozkaya:
I uploaded the CDMA version to CDMA section. I hope it works :)
[HTC EVO 3D] nabbed:
You, sir, are a genius!

- Place my music app in your system folder

- Change permissions to:

I'm interested in peoples experiences with the Steam application regarding battery drain. I installed the beta as soon as it came out in February. It seemed to work fine for a week or so then it went haywire on battery drain keeping the phone awake when it should be sleeping so I stopped running it.

They released a new version recently which I installed today and so far it seems much better.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mister_Mxyzptlk:
If you're after volume alone, go with the E11. However, since there's no easy "line out" solution for the Note, the E11 won't sound as good as VOODOO Louder. Personally, I've found that the Beats EQ package + VOODOO Louder gives excellent results. If you have an aversion to Beats Audio, you can use DSP Manager and achieve the same effect.
