But im not sleeping tonight untill this baby gets a new brain froyo slowing up big and needs a new lease of life.

Im on T-mobile and have the oringinal froyo from tmobile. i have bricked a few phones in the past and dont wont to do it this time.

This is what i need to do and have highlighted wht i dont know.

Make sure you're on the latest CWM - dont know!

MAKE A NANDROID - dont know, have read up on it doesnt make sense??

wipe data/factory reset in recovery - should be ok

[G2 and Desire Z General] russianzilla:
I don't think it will help directly, as the Adreno drivers are for graphics and only provide hardware acceleration. (At least, that's my understanding. I'm not a ROM developer.) However, it could mean that Qualcomm is willing to release drivers if enough people request them, so in the long run it might help.
[G2 and Desire Z General] steviewevie:
Yeah this doesn't directly help the camera, because that needs its own drivers. But it shows Qualcomm are willing to get involved with the dev community, so *maybe* they will consider releasing ICS camera drivers too ?

[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CtrlAltDelIrl:
Which is the best rom {Performance & Free Ram}

Hi there,

For me it has to be Xperience v5.0 deodexed with nAa 11 kernel..

For performance use a class 10 sd card.. Nothing else comes remotely close..

RAM is different, everyone will be different.. Same phones with same rom and kernel wont give the same ram free..

Antutu 2.6 score of 2038 @ 748Mhz.. (Pretty damn good)

ALWAYS start your install with a formatted sd card.. Keep your backups on the computer!

Have fun,

I usually dont post things like this, but i cant seem to find the "perfect" one . I used to use TouchPal on winmo and LOVED it there was no keyboard better . i tried TouchPal for android and quite simply it sucks . I hate it . so far my favorites are smart keyboard , perfect keyboard , but , both are great , however where one triumphs in a certain feature , the other lacks .

I LOVE compact keyboards , i hate swype and like keyboards and dont care for full qwerty keyboards , unliess im in terminal or something .

What I like is key height adjustment , custom dictionary , and what none of them have (which irritates the living crap outta me) a way to select a priority for a predictive word . In touchpal on winmo you could select the priority of a word .. for example the key "ui" gets pressed first , then "df" the two words which can come from that are I'd and if .. well in touchpal winmo you could select which one was a higher priority .. i miss features like that ..

So if anyone knows of one which is close to the TouchPal winmo version , let me know :) thanks guys

have you tried siine keyboard? Or Modding existing keyboard apks?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] elesbb:
Meh siine was cool but not really what i wanted .. Pefect keyboard , the one i use now, works okay . Two big things i hate about it are the fact you cant prioritize words and that it takes the image you set for the background and just squishes it totally distorting it instead of asking you to crop it . like super keyboard does .

And modding apk's really only allows one to change the look of it . i could prolly switch up the layout more to my liking but as far as how it runs and opperates thats source code level stuff . which of course is impossbible to obtain since its paid software .

But thanks for the reply :)

Just downloaded .. i wish it supported a compact layout .. and custom background images .

I really love super keyboard i just hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate the fact i cant prioritze words .. like when i type "oh" i get "ph" as my first suggestion which would be entered upon hitting space .. thats freaking lame im not writing a lab report where i need to list the ph balance of the solution .. im freaking texting my friend xP i emailed the author of super keyboard to hopefully include this option to prioritize words .. id be hooked then .. im honestly about to write my own .

Hey everyone,

wasn't sure if this was a ROM specific glitch so posting it here. Basically, I use Reaper 2.1 and it's incredible. But recently it's gone a bit strange.

I had audiobooks on my phone, and last week it started playing them instead of message notifications (I use Mortplayer for them, and it didn't run when this happened). I had to delete the audiobooks to make it stop. But then, it didn't play any sounds, nor was there any vibration.

The phone doesn't seem capable of saving my sound settings at all. I change them all, and the next time I get a notification it's silent, or plays a sound I've never heard! (a random one from the list)

I stuck it on vibrate when I was waiting for a call, and lo and behold it didn't vibrate.

It's really weird and I just can't think what would have caused it. Any ideas before I full wipe and reinstall Reaper or a fancy new ICS ROM? Forgot to backup earlier, it was all going too well!
[HTC Desire S] Saipro:
Try Titanium Backup from the Android market (now Google Play). Not only does it backup apps, it restores data and settings. Works nearly always. Even across Android versions, say from ICS to GB or Froyo. And all these can be achieved with the free version.

On the flip side, a full wipe thereafter is recommended. You might want to try Primo-S (Sense 4.0 on ICS) for a fancy ROM :)

I've tried to flash the #18 kernel using Fastboot Commander, but for some reason I can't get it to work, although it flashed the CM7 r2 Hboot with no problems.

But before I attempt to solve that problem, can I flash the kernel zip file using 4EXT? I've googled and read all day but haven't been able to find a clear answer. Is it as simple as going to 'Instal zip from sd card', finding the kernel zip file on the card and flashing it?

I'm using Sebastiaan15's Runnymede 6.1 AIO with INT2SD-S (which is fantastic) and I want to see if I can duplicate Prof Peach's extended battery life.

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ArmorD:
You wanna use your computer as an external screen for your phone(just like tv)? The possible HDMI port in your computer is HDMI-out, and you cannot use it as HDMI-in. You will need some kind of a usb adapter for it.

And if your monitor(you have a desktop pc?) has an HDMI port, it would be an HDMI-in port. Try plugging your phone into your monitor?

Hi

Does anyone else find the Asus android keyboard is very laggy and misses characters when you type quickly?

I just switched my prime to use the stock android keyboard and it seems much better. However I liked the layout of the Asus one better, and it had larger buttons.

Just curious...

Thanks for the suggestions. I am am trying swiftkey tablet x keyboard right now and it has a split thumb design as well which I actually like.

The thumbkeyboard doesn't have a free trial so I am hesitant to buy it without trying it. The only problem I have is the space bar is near the notification area and I hit it once in awhile stead of the keyboard.. I will keep looking.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] fredgar75:
Their are two space bars on the thumb keyboard. Left and right. But it is well worth the money. It has a dock bar at the top to add different quick keys as well. 20 to be exact.

Again... thanks for the suggestion. This keyboard makes typing ALOT easier than the stock keyboard.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Trinky87:
Hello everybody!

I an an Android app developer and I would like to attach my Galaxy Nexus to a projector (with VGA input unfortunately) in order to present my applications to other people when they are many. In this case I don't want to just start a presentation or show images, but I want the projector to reproduce what the screen is actually showing.

Is this possible? If yes, how?

I've seen that in USA it is possible to buy a micro-usb to VGA adapter that works with Galaxy Nexus, but it is not clear to me whether I'm able to see the screen or only media files. I think that a special app is needed to show the screen, do anyone know which one?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The-Captain:
I would look at getting a projector with an HDMI, that way you can hook up and HDMI and I am not 100% sure, may want to search online, but I believe it has mirror mode doesn't it!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spunker88:
VGA is analog and HDMI is digital, to convert between one another you'll need to find a unit that looks like a small box and requires power. Don't be fooled by cables that have HDMI on one end and VGA on the other, these are for desktops that support sending VGA over HDMI which isn't common.

Assuming it has no HDMI port, does it have a DVI port. DVI is just the digital video carrier of HDMI so a cheap pin converter cable will work.
