Hi,

Seen a few threads on SMB issues, I am using ES Explorer to access files, however I would like to stream videos from my PC (most on DVD), but the video app does not work streaming (asks for a password/username everytime).

Tried all the tricks in the posts that I can see.

Any further ideas? Many stated Archos were looking at it, but they are quite old threads so presume it's not?

Hi all,

Is anyone else seeing very slow performance with Root Explorer and ICS?

I don't believe it's to do with the CF-Root kernel as it seems the same with SiyahKernel.

I've done a couple of full wipes (formatting partitions) to make sure there was nothing strange going on.

Everything just seems really slow compared to Root Explorer on GB, folder browsing, searching, its all in slow motion...

Anyone have any suggestions or am I the only person seeing this?

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angrymanhands:
If your using a stock ROM with a stock kernel you will only be able to display video from youtube and the video app. To mirror the display from your phone you will need to flash a different kernel. This is assuming that you are rooted of corse. I like the plane old poonsense 2.2.3 kernel. Maybe there are better kernels out there, but this one has never given me any problems. I've tried others and they didn't play well with my phone. Get kernel manager in the play store, or marker or whatever it's called now. It will give you a list of compatible kernels for your phone.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sitlet:
You need to have a kernel that supports hdmi out, not sure if that rom/kernel will work. The stock rom definitely works, as far as I know all custom kernels from the latest OTA don't have it working.

If you do not want to go back to stock entirely, investigate some of the dual boot methods. You can boot into another ROM watch your vids and boot back into Miui.

Can do the same without the dual boot specific steps by setting up the ROM that will play vids and nandroiding it,etc
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sitlet:
If you want to do HDMI mirroring, I think you have to go back to a froyo 2.2 rom and use TeamWin HDMI mirroring app and kernel. Froyo is the last rom I heard that works on, I haven't seen anything that they got it working on GB.

What is the easiest and fastest way to get HDMI working? What ROMs supports it?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PlatinumPenguin:
Any cm7 based rom works. Decks reloaded works amazing with HDMI.

Download the hdmwin app from the market and grant super user permission. Also download the v8 deamon that comes with it. Set the settings to route audio, CPU to max, keep screen on and make sure you plug it in when you are mirroring. You will need to restart after the initial settings of the settings. Plug in select mirror and if doesn't work right away take the cable out and plug it in again. It can be stubborn sometimes.

I use it all the time while having the evo synced to a wiimote to control it.

The Motoblur UI has taken a lot of flak for being slow, cumbersome and “downright useless” as a friend of mine succinctly put to me some time ago. It seems that things have changed for the better, at least with the Android 4.0 version of the overlay from Moto, and if you want proof of that claim, you can try now to know for yourself.

Pulled from a Droid RAZR, the launcher is now ready to be installed on any non-Motorola device, with a caveat that you should be running ICS. It has already been said to work on the HTC Sensation and other devices and there is also a choice of two launchers with different homescreen styles, so take your pick.

Head to the http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1577123 thread to grab the APKs and to get some specific instructions on how to get the UI on to your Android device.

[General Questions and Answers] sheamolt:
Until August 2011 I had a smartphone with unlimited data..and then I switched to a basic phone.

Now I need a smartphone again...and the website will not let me put unlimited on my phone. Is there anyway/anything to say to the support guy to get the unlimited back?

Also, looking back at the months I had it (Nov '09 - Aug '11) I never got to 2gb...however, do companies 'bloat' the data now? I remember I used Pandora all the time in the car and whatnot and I just looked back at my old data and the highest I found I ever used was 1,500,000 Kb... most were <900,000 Kb. Now I'm looking at my tablets usage statistics for Pandora alone (I use it pretty much the same) and it's reading about 900Mb for pandora alone...

Anyway, thanks for the help.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rbtrucking:
Are you on ICS or Gingerbread? Best way in my experience is to do a nandroid backup then factory data reset (will not delete anything on the sd card) Then when you want to restore go to recovery. Backups and restore, advanced restore, choose the one you want. They all have the date created as the file name. Then choose it and choose restore data. Best way IMO. Titanium backup is a mess if ya ask me! I have lost so many apps using that.

Astro file manager for app backup... Quick and simple... Free..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] playya:
Because if you were having any issues with your data corrupting your apps then it will come back when restoring. If I am not mistaken that method restores your apps and the data. Which if you check any android forum its not recommended to restore data but just apps. Now I have only done the advance restore once or twice but I believe it does restore everything included data...

MyBackup Root and TB along with GoSMS although MyBackup Root does handle SMS and MMS I believe are definitely the route you want to take... IMHO
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rbtrucking:
Restoring from Clockwork mod is the best way trust me I have never had any issues doing it this way. Titanium backup is where I have had all the issues with losing certain apps and data because they become corrupt.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] killaphatboy:
My backup pro backs up apps too. Yes Titanium Backup sucks. I use App Backup and Restore.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] The Root:
SMS Backup & Restore is good for just texts.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ndmoh1:
In addition to all the suggestions, I would also backup micro sd card to computer as final step just in case.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Since everyone already dealt with backing up the phone...

I wrote this for someone not long ago. I hated all the folders that got created and left by old apps. I've always felt that the stuff left behind might cause problems when flashing between roms and it's always good to format everything and start over once in a while.

Hello all. So this morning i was looking to flash to Blaze4G modem that Master&Slave has so kindly uploaded for us, and after backing up and wiping cache, i proceeded to flash the modem.

after booting up i had no 4G connection, and trying to mess with APN's resulted in "no data connection" error. I know i've seen this same error over in the developers thread for the Blaze modem, but don't know what i did wrong. some careful combing and reading of the thread should give me solution to the aforementioned problem, HOWEVER this is not the issue i am posting about.

After the failure of the modem, i attempted to restore my nandroid backup via CWM recovery and after a notice "no files found", it proceeded to restore my listed recovery anyways. Upon finishing the recovery and booting up, i was presented with the very same screen that you get when you turn the phone on or flash a new rom the first time, asking me to sign in to my google account, along with an error "SYSTEM UIDs INCONSISTENT" along with an error message that reads "UIDs on the system are inconsistent, you need to wipe your data partition or your device will be unstable" along with a button that says "i'm feeling lucky"

i fortunately have a previous backup, but would like to know how the flying **** this happened, as having a nandroid backup completely fail like this is new to me and makes me very nervous. Had i not had a backup that was a couple days before the newly made one i would be flipping out pretty bad at the moment.

i also forgot to mention that i did click "skip" on setting up a google account in order to get to the home screen and see if it carried over anything, but the phone appears to be reset to stock on my particular ROM with no user apps at all, like i did a system format.

i also checked the nandroid file with "appextractor" from the play market to see if my apps and data were indeed inside, and upon doing an app scan, i found ALL my apps and could have extracted them from the backup if i so desired.

this makes it even more CONFOUNDING that the backup acts like a formatter, this is VERY perturbing to me.

ideas?

Thanks for getting back. I did think that you may have rooted your phone a while ago. I will look at what you have suggested and see if I can achieve anything.

Also what happens if I want my wildfire back to how it was when stock. For example if something goes wrong or I decide to be difficult and want it back the way it was :p Is there a way to restore it back to the stock OS (Froyo 2.2.1) ?
