[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Success100:
well, you have no signal right here bro, I think it would be a better gauge to do it when you have a fairly decent signal. Any carrier is going to have terrible speeds in a bad area.

No defending sprint at all. just want to see some speeds n a decent signal area. I can get b/t 400-800kbps in a decent 3g area though
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mattykinsx:
Just because he didn't have signal when he ran the test doesn't mean he didn't during the test. Especially if he moved at all.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] deedscreen:
Um.... I'm jealous... I get between 0.01mbps and .11 mbps if I get lucky.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Duce HD2:
Here's with signal... Lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] deedscreen:
Sprint came out and did tests... I live Downtown and they said that I have wonderful signal at great levels... They came out because of multiple complaints... I wonder how iPhone users put up with their phone without breaking it! :).

"Ooops, I dropped my iCrap... Now my fancy iGlass and iScreen and iBack is broken.... boo hoo...." Apple is STUPID because if they had any damn sense, they would be using Gorilla® Glass.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TerryMathews:
That's actually common misconception. Gorilla glass is very hard to resist scratching but it makes it more prone to shattering. Hardness and strength are usually inversely proportional.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mattykinsx:
I know this is off topic but Apple is smart in this instance from a business aspect.

They force Apple Care for repairs thus make even more money.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] deedscreen:
Did you see the demo at CES, how it's less prone to shattering??? I read some stuff too.... I don't know why Apple even uses glass... they just want money from repairs... :-|
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] krazyflipj:
You guys try the 3g speed hacks like changing proxies?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] deedscreen:
It helped at little bit... I should try roaming PRL's like Verizon... I don't want to get roaming overages though...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mattykinsx:
Yes, no change.

Including 3g supercharger by zepplin.

PRLs make a slight difference, still barely usable.

Not much you can do about the towers being overloaded.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tailsthecat3:
Shouldn't even use mbps option while speed testing on Sprint.

I was roaming on Verizon 3g all weekend. It was ridiculous how much better and faster the connection was. Sprint doesn't deserve my hard earned money. Time to go shopping.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ReActiveDisorder:
I get pretty good speeds from 3G. I get 920kbps Down and 540kbps Up. On WiMax i get 13.4Mbps Down and 6.8Mbps Up. Im very happy with sprints data speeds.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RayTrue04:
Please explain how you get 6mbps uploads on 4g when Sprint/Clearwire's 4g upload is capped at 1.50 mbs?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tailsthecat3:
I'm twenty minutes south of Boston. Suburbs are not "hillbilly ville". We have no control where they place towers. It's all money and they will lease the cheapest land and towers that they can find. With no regard for paying customers. Sprint shouldn't even be classified as a national carrier. But they are.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tailsthecat3:
Obviously. Thanks for pointing that out. Notice in the post, I wasn't complaining but simply stating a fact.

You're so rad.

Yay! Small sample size proves everything! You know how many times my wife asks if something's wrong on Verizon because her signal goes to hell? That's not even counting 4g blackouts for days... Glad one weekend proves everything to you.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] crypt0kiddie:
On a side note, I'm on Calk's 2.8.1 EL29 ROM with the FC15 modem. My signature is a little out of date.

That ROM and modem combo seems to give me the best Verizon 3G when using Roam Control to roam and even on Sprint 3G when I try speed tests.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hussmanne:
You are hilarious. Ever heard of an ETF?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tailsthecat3:
It doesn't. But I was in the middle of nowhere..to be fair, I get excellent Sprint data speeds at work where Verizon and att customers need to step outside to use their devices. After using cell one, cingular, Verizon, att, sprint, they all have their faults.

So shoosh.

[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] kuosh:
First of all hello to all and thank you very much for the provided info on this forums.

I just got my first smartphone and I want to get root access on my phone.

After searching this forums for 2 days and asking some people around here for some help no one could give me an answer so here it goes.

I wanna root my Gio using SuperOneClick. Downloaded the latest version followed all the steps but my problem is that when I set me phone on debug mode from Settings > Application > Development and then connect it to the pc my phone does not go into debugging mode. The only option that I have on the status bar is "Select to copy files from/to your Computer"

I have latest Kies installed, latest pc drivers, latest usb drivers. I have tried on a second pc with win7 32bit version and with a secondary cable. I tried hard reset and also removing phone battery and all that stuff.

Running 2.3.3 firmware.

Any idea what can I do ?
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] voetbalremco:
Make sure anything related to kies is off, use task manager on pc, browse to processes and kill kies related services
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] kuosh:
Already done that. Except for this everything else works on the phone.

Also tried with sd card on and sd card off with sim on and sim off both sim and sd off still nothing.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] kuosh:
Ok is done.

For some of the phones that are in Romania atm you can enable usb debugging but nothing will happen no notification no nothing so the only method to root your gio is with Universal_GB_Root_v5.

I found this after 4 days of constant searching for a solution for my phone.

Thank you very much to all the people that pmed me and the people that reply here.

If anyone needs some help with this and links to donload the root zip you can give me a pm.

Topic can be close.

Guys please help me. I wanted to flash this rom but it shows me some image and reboot to my leak ICS.

Can you help me?

Is your bootloader unlocked? and do you have a custom recovery?

I installed cwm and click on "flash rom" and select rom but when the rom goes to be installed it showed me image that i can't post there becouse I have only 4 posts :(

but you can look to acertabletforum.com to section : Acer A100 HELP. There I posted this image.

I have unloocked bootloader and root and custom recovery.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] Land Master:
I wasn't even going to go there but did anyway in an attempt to help. Your image is NOT viewable on that forum with out registering which I do not want to do. That, and I don't understand why you would post about a CUSTOM rom on the devices main forum. But anyway I digress.

Simply tell us what the "image" looks like or says and perhaps we can help you. My initial suspicion is a corrupt download but without more information we can't help.

in the picture is an lying android with hole in its body with red warning triangle.

I tried to boot to CWM and flash rom manualy but it's show me this image too.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bcparker:
I'm a pretty big tinkerer, and right now I'm running the epicaospmod ROM and from a completely clean flash, I have settled into some very minor yet still very irritating bugs and stability issues so I figure since I'm already dealing with issues, why not get more customization out of my ICS ROM?

Which of these three ROMs do you find best? Which is the most complete? Which is the most stable in its current iteration? And most importantly which one just kicks the most ass!? Just wanna start a discussion between the three.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ascertion:
CM9 is the most stable, but I like Codename the most. It's all up for debates, but CM9 has had the biggest development team behind it so far.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blackroseMD1:
I agree with Ascertion. CM9 is definitely the most stable, and the battery life on it for me is outstanding. I like Codename, but won't be going back to it until it's updated to 4.0.4.

I'd recommend CM9.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] humdrum2009:
I've tried them all cm9 is a daily driver for me.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dr_gibberish:
Thanks all for your input. I bricked trying CM9 earlier this month and have been waiting to try again. I may do it this week.

Anyone using aokp think it is good for a daily driver? I am using it on my Asus transformer, and it is fast and rock solid. Seems like it may still have a little way to go on the E4GT though...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] NORCALkID:
I think all three are very stable. I have ran all 3 but recently been running cm9 because video and camera are fully functional on the latest build. I did underclock and under volt and been getting decent battery.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bcparker:
well since CM9 has the video fixes implemented, it shouldn't be long for the other AOSP ROMs to follow suit. All in due time, all in due time.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mookiejr05:
I agree cm9 is stable but aokp is just as stable with better customization out of all 3. Once codename is updated I will using that again.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] coiledwire:
Once kernel sources are released, I think you'll find these 3 are similar in working features.

Just my thoughts:

CM9 = most stable

AOKP = most pretty eye candy

Codename = most performance/battery life

Up to the individual for what is most important.

Hi All,

One month ago I've published my application to google play. Since then it got several good user reviews and I feel like it is ready for bigger publicity.

LoaderDroid is a download manager for android. It supports any type of file for downloading: videos, images, music, applications, anything.

One of the main features is independent settings of allowed connection per each loading. You can select what type of connection to use when adding link. So you can download movies using WI-FI only and books can be loaded via any type of connection.

It solves many problems with the standard Android Browser, which is sometimes unable to load files (including e-books, video streams, audio, applictions, zip files, etc.)

Just click on a link in the Android Browser and select LoaderDroid from list of applications. Or you can share a link to LoaderDroid using Android sharing feature.

And finally you can click on the "plus" button in the action bar and enter the link manually (by typing or pasting).

LoaderDroid can easily download huge files: it is just a question of time and space on your sdcard. LoaderDroid supports resumable downloading, if you lose connection or pause loading - loading will be restored from the place it was interrupted. LoaderDroid loads via specified connection (WI-FI only, WI-FI and mobile) and if the connection is switched off or disconnected, all downloads will be paused immediately.

For most servers LoaderDroid will load in 3 threads: sometimes this increases loading speed up to 3 times.

Also it is very smart Android loader and will not use any type of resource if it is not necessary.

This application is available on google play: _https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.zloy.android.downloader

[HTC One X] GioDoe:
Hello,

I am considering moving to android from blackberry, and so far I have identified more or less all the android-equivalent applications that I currently use on BB.

One thing I don't know about yet is the voice dialing. Does the one-x have any built-in tool for this or should I buy a third party app? All I need is to be able to initiate a call from my bluetooth earpiece whilst I am driving, without touching the phone. If there is a standard Sense/ICS app for this, is it localised? I mean, I am not a native English speaker. I would not mind telling the phone "call", but I would prefer to use my own language (Italian) to speak to it. I would look marginally less stupid if anyone heard me talking to the phone :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GR36:
So today on the g+app I went through and deleted all the pictures in the 'from your phone'	album. As it had loads of blurry shots and old stuff.

And it deleted all the photos on my phone!

Anyone else had this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AntonyStark:
That's what it does, delete is delete.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] eevans23:
What you really want though is the deletes on the phone to get deletes from my Google + account.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonathan3579:
It'd be nice if deleting from the phone didn't always delete from the account. I was pretty irked when that happened despite the fact that I wasn't logged into Google+
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
That's what happens. If you just go onto the web and delete the photos, they won't be deleted from the internal storage of the phone.

Doing so from the app, however, does delete the original photos from your device.

HI guys

Im currently using MIUI US Rom ver 2.4.6 with stock kernel. can anyone recommend me a fast and stable kernel compatible with this rom?

Will these do the trick?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] noxary:
I've heard only good things about Trinity, but I stopped using MIUI a long time ago, it's pretty outdated at this point.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] stormageddon:
I personally use the Trinity kernel when running MIUI but some prefer Faux123's kernel. It tends to be you choose which ever one is the most stable for your phone as not all are created equal. The other thing to note is that if you flash the kernel straight from morfic it will cause you to loose the ability to set themes and keep them after a reboot.

I have the modified Trinity Kernels that you can get to try and they both are flashable from CWM and have the theme fixes.

They are both found here >>Trinity Kernel<<

If you want to know the difference between them go to morfics thread and the explanations are there.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] un.droid:
thanks for the elaborated explanation and the Trinity builds. but what stability lose am i to experience? i flashed 4 hours ago ELP build and i have no problems with the themes.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] stormageddon:
You aren't necessarily going to experience stability issues. It is just a possibility you could. If you aren't then you will be fine.

I do suggest that you get setcpu so you can set the clock speed to the 1.1ghz that the kernel wants to default to but the os pushes it down to 1.0. But it is not a nessecity.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] grayson.mott:
The Destroyer

I would use The Destroyer16. I've seen many MIUI G2x's run stable and decent battery life (with a little UV) with this kernel. Plus 1.6ghz max will rip benchmark scores like crazy. Only good for gb 2.3.7 MIUI IMO. You can find it in the huge Trinity thread under g2x development.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Klathmon:
dont do this unless you know what your doing. it works on any CM7 based rom, but its very unstable and really only used for testing and benchmarking.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] stormageddon:
Agreed.

Hello guys. This is my first post in XDA. I would first like to thank the developers at XDA to bring ICS for our beloved O1..

I'm running cm9 beta5. I installed cm9 music on my phone. One thing that bugs me is that it starts playing music whenever I end a call.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] jzx0145:
Since i'm a newbie here and i'm not able to make a reply in the original post...

I'm very interested in this ROM. It's based on CM7, which is not able to shoot videos in 640x480 resolution. Maybe you would ask me why not shooting 720p videos, my answer is I need use the wide angle that 720p doesn't have but 640x480 does.

Semc Debrand Engine seems to have the ability(I guess) though it's based on CM7, because all semc apps were modded into this rom. So I'm wondering if the ROM can shooting 640x480 resolution videos. If it can, I'll surely download and flash it. In China, you know, downloading from some sites can make me mad. I don't want to waste too much time on meaningless things...

Sorry if my poor Chinglish bother you

Since i downloaded and flashed it i can confirm that all camera modes (vga ,qvga etc) work at full .A most recommended rom in my opinion
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] unisol107:
Mate...there is no such thing as wideangle unless you have a wide angle lens...actually the horizontal view captured in vga and hd is the same...only the vertical view is cropped in hd mode...so wheather shoot in vga or hd...you get the same field of view.

however i did get "wider" videos using vga mode than them using 720p in original(semc) rom...

I just bought an Acer W500 some weeks ago & already got Win 8 running on it, but after a while I found some inconveniences & need help to fix them

1. How can I turn the screen off without going to sleep/hibernate mode?

2. Is there any other good on-screen keyboard with thump & swipe style? & can also be opened or moved in-game?

3. How to set every folders layout into Tiles for easy touching? I have to set it everytime I open a new folder

4. Im using Firefox & I did re-config it for touch compatibility but zoom gestures still arent seem to work. Pinch in or out only make the font smaller or bigger, not zoom the entire page like IE 10

5. Is there any ways to bring back the cursor while touching like in win 7? I find it more compatible with games & stuffs. Cuz in most of the games, I had to double touch to choose something

6. How can I get another win7 PCs to connect to my tablet via wifi networks? I did change both PC to the same workgroup, set a password but it just keep saying my tablet is not accessible

Any help would be appreciated :D
[Windows 8 General] dazza9075:
cant help with most of that but as for networking, go to the networking sharing centre, click on the homegroup if setup, then change the various network settings, pay careful attention to setting like password protected sharing.

To be honest ive not been a fan of the networked usage of homegroups so it might be worth while turning that off....

I guess I exceeded my monthly allowance of 5GB just shy of the end of the billing cycle. Well yesterday marked the last day of the billing cycle and today starts the new one. I'm still only getting 10-20kbps (not kb/s). I talked to tech support and they are doing "research" on my line. Is there something I can do? I don't want to wait 72 hours for them to do this "research."

If they can slow me down so quickly, I would expect them to speed me back up quickly. What gives?
