[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Oscuras:
How does that increase performance?

Are you serious or are you trolling ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 95Z28:
I might be wrong but I'd guess both just from personal experience.

Overclocking has never done anything except increase benchmark scores for me, since I no longer run benchmarks I have no reason to OC. Any game that lags is most likely the game, not the phone.

Chances are if you find a laggy app and read reviews from the market you'll find a lot of complaints from people with all different phones.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Harjyot1:
Is there a noticeable performance difference between the Sgx540 running at 307mhz vs 384mhz for gaming?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Oscuras:
Oh, I see. That makes sense.

There is a big difference between 307 and 384, but almost no difference at all from 384 to 512 which is why you'll find all kernels overclock the gpu to 384 only, because overclocking it higher only drains battery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Luuthian:
If we're just talking games, the phone runs very well. No need to worry about lag while playing games. You won't have access to the better graphics and effects some games allow when you have a Tegra 3 or Adreno 225 device, but the GPU is more than adequate for playing the games on what would amount to "medium" settings on a PC.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] speedsolve:
even with franco kernel or stock kernel, galaxy nexus is very bad with modern combat 4 and nova 3. Such low framerate
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fux0r99:
I get lag with deer hunter 2014 on gnex yet my iPad mini runs it flawlessly an same with other certain games, so the answer is yes.I hear people getting game lag even on the S3 as well all the time so I think its just an android problem with their games, android games aren't as fluid or optimized as iOS games even though the device should be more than capable of running them.

The application emit a very unique high frequency sound (ultra sound) that the insects dislike. The pitch of the sound is so high that most humans will not notice anything.

Keep the application close to you and enjoy the outdoors without bites..

[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] sensboston:
This app is a complete BS, hoax! It's does nothing, just playing some weird sound.mp3 file via MediaElement (and show ads of course - it's a main purpose of this app). sound.mp3 has only silence with a few spikes inside (you may see by yourself using Audacity, for example). 7 "good" ratings was produced (I believe so!) by the author's friends.

Shame on this app!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dmbatson:
How much would you think would be a fair price for a hardly used non-scratched or dents premium device (Transformer Prime ) with matching Dock?

I have my prime+Dock+ Box's+ the tablet is full body Zagg shielded.

Hardly use it and just thinking about selling it but I dont want to be cheaped and i dont want to be abusive in pricing.

and for the record it works with wifi, bluetooth and bootloader still locked.

GPS doesnt work.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] texstar:
From what I've seen the Prime is still fetching close to the original price or better at this time. I've only found one retailer selling new units for 50.00 off the suggested retail price of $499.00 USD. Hope this helps.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jaycustom:
Assuming you paid $500 for the Prime and $150 for the dock, I'd sell it for about $575-$600.

That what I would try with my Prime and dock, and I don't even have the Zagg Shield.

Let us know how much it sells for if you do sell it;)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] faceyourfaces:
I'd say $625 at the highest. Maybe around $590.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] andyqutami:
Hey everyone,

I've been wanting a Prime ever since I heard about it last December, and I've decided to purchase it within the upcoming weeks. However, while reading around about all the problems I am now a bit hesitant -- I don't want to be stuck with a defective Prime after the return period is up.

So I was wondering what I should be looking as far as problems with my Prime goes?

A list of problems would be appreciated.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Hawke84:
Take a very close look at screen. Lightbleed around the edge, dead pixels and LCD mura which are bright spots, check for this on a white background. Other than that check WiFi is OK for u and all adaptors, SD USB etc all work OK.

Hope this helps...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ray3andrei:
Wifi issues, sensors working properly, dead pixels, the front camera properly working, the cpu getting blocked on the companion core (this one happed to me once, but a restart did it)

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] andyqutami:
Thanks guys, but I've been thinking about it too much and now I'm considering waiting off til Juneish to get the TF700 instead. This way I wouldn't have to worry about many of the problems that come along with the Prime.

Any thoughts on this? I really want the Prime, but the potential for problems makes me look to its successor.
[HTC One X] katamari201:
I'm trying to figure out if the One X has a good video capture or a bad video capture. I've seen tons of youtube 1080p videos, both recent and older, and there's a lot of inconsistency, even among the newer ones. The audio is still the typical bad HTC audio, with lots of clipping/popping and digital garbley voices. The video is the sporadic thing. It can go from very sharp and detailed to very blurry and noisy, indoor/outdoor doesn't really matter. The smoothness also goes from utter BLUR in some videos to skippy/laggy screen tearing in some videos to slight stuttering and ghosting, all when panning around. What is consistent though is how shaky it is.

The mobile-review.com review has a couple downloadable non-altered videos. I'm still looking for other downloadable ones. The indoor video looks pretty good, although it can get shaky and blurs pretty bad when moving around. The outdoor one is pretty much unusable the framerate is so low, which is weird since its outdoors, but the sharpness and quality seems very good otherwise.

Would be great if some peeps who own the phone can upload a few 1080p videos to a filehoster somewhere.

Edit: I just saw the HTC One V review at phonearena. Why is the audio on the lower tier device so much better? The video is also buttery smooth and clean, unlike the HTC One X/S, although less detailed. What gives? The HTC Vivid also had good audio capture, but it was pretty much a niche phone for AT&T early LTE adopters. Why don't they put this sort of effort for their main headline making phones? So frustrating. Seems they are capable of it, but somehow in the design process it always gets shoved to the back.
[G2 and Desire Z General] steviewevie:
If you've been following on Google+ you will know this already, but a while back the CM team asked for user submissions for a new mascot to replace the generic (i.e. Google-designed) skateboarding robot.

After much deliberation, they picked a winner and asked the designer to make a few tweaks. The final design is shown and explained at http://www.cyanogenmod.com/blog/introducing-cid?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter

[G2 and Desire Z General] sino8r:
It looks weird... and that's putting it nicely. Of course, I'm not really a fan of our trashcan "South Park" Canadians looking robot mascot anyways. He's a robot and not a freaking android for god's sake lol! It's not like we can go back and change everything. Oh well... Interesting story anyways!

One last thing though.... why change it to something that's almost completely unrecognizable? This reminds me of Google changing the name of the "market" to "play store". There is no point and might hurt your image/recognition after being so well established.
[G2 and Desire Z General] steviewevie:
Any new mascot is bound to be unrecognizable at first though, surely ? I've posted before about the fact I find it bizarre that the standard Google mascot is a robot, and not an android at all, so I appreciate the effort to come up with something more android-like. There were a lot of submissions from others, but I don't think the CM team have released pics of those.

I say give it time, and I'm sure the new guy (called "Cid") will grow on us :)

[G2 and Desire Z General] xT4Z1N4TRx:

[G2 and Desire Z General] rmcsc:
The little guy looks angry. I don't like that. :(

An android is most always humanoid in shape, while a robot doesn't have to be humanoid. All android are robots, but not all robots are androids.

All bananas are fruits, but not all fruits are bananas.

The legs should be shorter then it will look just fine IMHO
[G2 and Desire Z General] rmcsc:

[G2 and Desire Z General] TpmKranz:
Just needs getting used to

Of course we all connect Andy to CM but I think it's a great idea to evolve and show that the CM community is, unlike Google, able to distinguish a robot from an android :D

And Cid is a nice approach to giving CM a face for its own.

BUT he looks like a god damn teletubby rofl

This was my contribution to the list of jokes on him and I think that this is just a step on the way to the acceptance of the new mascot. One day every CM user will for sure be able to identify with Cid. A dynamic and revolting android in its prime, willing to improve the world - or at least its device ;)
[G2 and Desire Z General] demkantor:
what now i have to get rid of the stickers on my skateboard/snowboard!!!

seriously though bad choice, just my opinion but really...

this is poor excuse for a mascot... really lame
[G2 and Desire Z General] rmcsc:
You know... that Andy on a skateboard is, after all, the mascot for Android itself. *facepalm*

No need for a facepalm it was a joke
[G2 and Desire Z General] rmcsc:
Mine too. :p
[G2 and Desire Z General] madwhit:
Really!?

I know this is a late reply but honestly the new mascot is wrong for CM. I understand Google's need to have an (arguably) android mascot but CM doesn't necessarily need that. Ubuntu didn't try to mimic Debian's logo and Debian's logo certainly doesn't look anything like a penguin.

Please, please, please rethink this logo and come up with something that better represents the awesomeness of CyanogenMod, not just a revision of Andy.
[G2 and Desire Z General] mesaj:
Like posters before, I don't want you to take my comment as offence, so writing this before I begin :)

I don't like it too much, Andy was good and this new guy looks like con man :f

I think CM makes happy lot of users and this don't fit to it :) But yeah, the third guy on second picture is looking happy, so It's good, and should stay happy! :)

Your decision, CMTeam, not bad at all, but everything can be better than it is.

Not good.

[G2 and Desire Z General] Pickx:
It's better than Andy (what isn't?) but why do we even need a mascot anyway? Why not just some classy new logo?

which is the best miui gingerbread rom available right now for our blade.

plzz tell me or post the link here. i love the miui look.
[Blade General] nfs1mw:
I think there is only 1 miui gingerbread rom presently available. It is by andalulu and is a bit laggy in UI.
[Blade General] aman.droid:
yes i have installed it. it is nice but there are some noticeable issues with it

1. system.apk is in chinese

2. instead of play store as default marketplace it uses its own market which is all in chinese and when a app want to redirect to play store it get redirected to the other market(which is not by google) and in chinese

3.it creates a swap file that's why not able to mount sd card when connected to pc.

4. more smoothness should be imparted

and a bit minor issues if all these are corrected then it is a nice rom.
[Blade General] Kannibalism:
The miui rom for the zte blade needs some fixes until then the best choise would be miui v4 which is based on ics that version also needs some work but i am sure that it will be much more smoother than the gb version

is the video playback on ICS MIUI is smooth or not and i have also installed coldfusionX i have played a video but its not smooth.... with both s/w accel. and h/w accel. after appling the given video patch also.

dont expect it to be smooth in ics miui till it is fixed in its rom base (which is coldfusion ics).

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bananenbieger:
Hi Guys, I have a Motorola Atrix and a small problem with the WLAN. (but i think its a Android problem)

The Wi-Fi Sleep Policy stands on “When screen turns off” to save Battery.

Now, when I unlock my phone it takes a lot of time until the Wi-Fi connection to a known AP is done. The time it takes until the connection is established, is related to the wifi.supplicant_scan_interval in the biuld.prop file.

In my Rom (Neutrino 2.6) it is set to 120 seconds. That means, when I wake up the phone and unlock, the phone turns on the Wi-Fi and then it waits 120 seconds till a Wi-Fi scan performs. After this scan, the phone knows that a known Wi-Fi is in range and the connection will be made.

But I have no desire to wait so long for connection.

Can someone make a script or something else that tells the phone to make a Wi-Fi scan when the device will be unlocked?

Or is there an other solution?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sashank:
If you're rooted, you can use a root file explorer like Slide Explorer or Root Explorer in Play Store, navigate to /system, find build.prop there, open it with a text editor and change the wifi scan interval to a lesser value and save the new build.prop

Be aware that scanning for wifi too frequently will drain your battery faster.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bananenbieger:
This is exactly that, what I don't want.

I want a high scan intervall to have a low battery drain. But i want, that the phone do one scan after an unlock.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] urinsane:
My 2 main requirements:

- Cheap. Trying to stay under $10/month, with an incoming 808 area code phone number.

- must be reliable enough to make and receive calls in most outdoor locations. Since I'm on an island, coverage is actually decent in most areas, but GrooveIP seems to be a bit too bandwidth intensive. Still testing with Talkatone, seems hit or miss. Low bandwidth codecs for SIP seem to be most reliable (as they should be) but you sometimes sound like a robot.

A few years ago, I had tried out Sipdroid back on my CDMA Hero with poor results, and abandoned my quest fairly quickly as I was on Sprint with plenty of minutes.

My interest renewed with the $30 T-Mobile Prepaid plan that gives 5gb of data but only 100 minutes. I don't need many minutes, but 100 isn't quite going to cut it. I'm still testing and will be updating this post and adding additional info as I try new solutions. I have not yet decided on a single solution.

My requirements are probably very different from most. I'm looking for it to play well with my prepaid ambitions. What I really wanted is to have Google Voice forward to my VOIP number and whatever prepaid number I was using that month. Google Voice is great, but I live in Hawaii, and the 808 area code is not eligible for Google Voice numbers. Can't get a new one, can't port one in.

While in many places this wouldn't be an issue, people take the 808 area code very seriously around here. If you are giving out your number for business reasons, it is a serious disadvantage if you do not have that 808, and you are looked at as an outsider. Stupid? Yes, especially when anyone can just pickup a $20 prepaid phone at Wal-Mart and have one, but it isn't something that will change soon.

My new plan is to use my VOIP number as my main number, and have any calls that go unanswered forward to the prepaid number. (EDIT: Just realized I could have this forward to a Google Voice # with any area code and maintain my 808 illusion... This might work!) VOIP.ms interface allows for this, however you are charged both the incoming rate as well as the outgoing rate for all forwarded calls (about 2.5c per minute total for Hawaii). This is still cheaper than getting seperate forwarding number from somewhere like hostednumbers.com

As always, if anyone has any suggestions, please share.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Andie00:
GVoice and Groove IP user here. I love it! I was using SipDroid with a SIP provider but it wasn't very reliable. Kept missing calls, etc. Never heard of Talkatone untill this thread. It seemed interesting so I looked them up but they display ads. No thank you. For a one time fee of $5 (I paid 2.50 as it's on special often) I recommend Groove. Use it on Wifi and 3G with no issues. I'm in Vietnam calling back home in SoCal.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] codesplice:
Great info. I've used GrooveIP extensively for about the past year and was over all quite pleased. The only issue I have with it is the lack of support for different (lower bandwidth) codecs. On wifi at my work, GrooveIP seems to really struggle at making calls clearly. That said, GrooveIP is far more configurable than the other straight Google Voice solution (Talkatone) and the extra configuration options are what kept me on GrooveIP for so long.

I've been using Talkatone for about the past week, and the calls have been much better - no more stuttering. Talkatone does display ads, which can be a bit of a turnoff. My other complaints about Talkatone were actually resolved in an update yesterday when they added the option to disable notifications for Google Talk messages and also an option to restrict to wifi. Now that those features are added, I went ahead and purchased a 1-year premium subscription for $20 which eliminates the ads and adds features - like the ability to automatically toggle your Google Voice settings based on your connection to the Talkatone service. It still has a few minor bugs but I'm sure those will be resolved soon.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] spencer88:
I bought GrooveIP when it went on sale a while back for $2 or $2.50. I only used it to make a few calls while on Verizon's 3G, worked rather well. I have talkatone but haven't used it yet but I hear good things about it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Q.Entity:
I have been using Skype for ages. Most of the day my phone is on WiFi and I have the T-Mo 10GB plan so I am not concerned about the amount of data.

Most of the time, I do Skype to Skype so no cost there but I do need to do Skype to phone (mostly mobiles) from US to Europe.

Does anyone knows what gets me better rates than Skype on US to Europe (mobile)?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] schmoove:
I am using the build in SIP client in combination with VoipAlot, which has very good rates both to landlines as mobile. I used to use Nimbuzz or Fring in the past in combination with VoipAlot, which also worked fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Luxferro:
I been a GrooVe IP user for a while now. Whenever my phone is connected to wifi at work or home it goes into airplane mode w/ wifi enabled and changes my google voice # to forward to gtalk and use GrooVe IP.

Just downloaded Talkatone to give it a try to see which I like better. I like the fact that GrooVe IP was more integrated into android more (you don't have to use their app to make calls, or view call logs, ect). Hopefully Talkatone follows.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BinkXDA:
In my apartment, cell signal is rather poor for both AT&T and T-Mobile—as such, I can’t use the phone in most places in my apartment. Therefore, I looked into VoIP options and have currently settled on VOIPo (voipo.com) and Internet calling using the stock firmware. This, in total and combined with T-Mobile’s prepaid 30USD/5GB plan gives me unlimited calling for under 40USD a month (though I had to pay VOIPo two years in advance to get this).

I am almost satisfied with this solution, but just barely.

Pros

I can call from anywhere in my apartment and call quality is better than cellular.

Unlimited minutes with 5GB of data for under 40USD

All voicemail comes in via email (but Google Voice does this as well)

Lots of call routing options (but I don’t really use these)

Cons

VOIPo only has one codec, which requires 80Kbps in both directions, so calls using anything less than a stellar 4G connection are quite poor or impossible (so I often need to make calls—or make the call again—using the 100 minutes available on the T-Mobile plan).

VOIPo’s BYOD servers appear to be less reliable than their non-BYOD ones

The Internet calling client appears to stop registering with the SIP server at least once a week, so I miss calls.

Fairly frequently callers complain of their voices being echoed back to them—and this seems to be more of an issue with the Internet calling client versus VOIPo, or some slight incompatibility between the two

I assume due to short NAT timeouts and possible packets loss, I need to configure the Internet calling client to Always Send keep-alive or I miss calls when on 3/4G—and I assume this also negatively affects battery life.

VOIPo does not do text messaging—so I have to make calls with one number and text with another

All said though, sadly it seems this stuff is still bleeding edge, even today (even though my legacy Nokia E51 does VoIP/SIP better than Google’s finest), and does not Just Work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NCRoadster:
Great thread. I'm on Verizon with only 50 minutes and unlimited data. Total is $50 a month.

I was using skype, but I am going to give voipalot a try.

Edit: Looks like voipalot does not update their ios and android apps very frequently. They also have pretty bad reviews. I guess I will look for another SIP provider.

Edit2: I decided to sign up for callcentric. Just added $5. Will report back.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nomisunrider:
I use google voice and my own asterisk server at home for free VOIP whenever I'm on wifi.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] urinsane:
Check out www.voip.ms and CallCentric for international rates; both seem to be pretty similar.

I'll try to update tonight with some of the other VOIP providers discussed. Glad this is useful for other people too, thanks guys!
