I use FD19

FD19 has given me the best results so far. I am getting 1.3 Mbps down (with only -91db of signal in my middle-of-nowhere home.) This is versus FD26 which I only got 748Kbps down.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] guirae:
EL29 hands down. sitting in the exact same spot, FD26 hit avg. 0.45. first test on EL29 in the same spot got 1.56. averaged 0.75 on 4 tests. (In San Francisco)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] guirae:

Hi guys. trying to restore back to my backup stock rom. then want to update via OTA. So i restored back but i am stuck on HTC quietely brilliant screen.

I can get into HBOOT. any ideas on please what i need to do to get this working again please?

Thanks
[HTC One X] PyroCF:
You can get to Recovery from HBOOT surely? Just scroll down one.
[HTC One X] ckpv5:
You need to flash stock boot.img as nandroid restore will not restore the stock boot.img. You're still on the last boot.img that you flashed, that is why it is stuck on splash/bootloop
[HTC One X] Goku80:
thanks. just managed to get the boot.img from a thread on Development section and just flashed it through fastboot. many thanks to you both. kinda had me there for a minute.:o still alot to learn on this side of the forums..many thanks:)

All ICS **** camera. All ICS , in fact most of them are great first few days then..... they start their minor to major issues. I don't like GB but have no choice and go back to XXJW4 . It's also great but for a while . After few days it starts slowing down, freezing up and so on. All irritating stuff which had made me leave GB in the first place. Then once again ICS , ....**** camera and issues.... phew ! Can't get the right rom ! Miui is the best but again bad battery life and no TV out. Well...

Either you didn't install it the right way, or you messed up with it afterwards. Ics roms like Slim are incredibly faster than gb roms. Never had a slowdown or reboot. Gb is history, man. Try again and follow install instructions carefully, you won't regret it.

Well if you don't like any of those. This might sound retarded but try a custom froyo Tom. I found I didn't like ice gb was alright for a little bit. Then I tried ultimate rom with speedmod k13. Its been a couple of weeks and I don't experience any problems.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Foxhounnd:
So I wish to keep all my media, ie photos and music on my EXTERNAL SD Card only, and all my apps etc on the phone itself, how do I set it up, so that when I connect to the computer it only mounts the external storage, ie the sd card, and to make the camera save all photos to the sd card, not the internal.

I'm on Hydrogen 4.0.4 btw.

Cheers

Fox
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bala_gamer:
If you are on aokp/aosp roms, you have to read and understand the problems in " sd card mountpoint" issue much more.

to save all the photos in external sd either you have to use ics camera from market or switch the storage location in "Storage" settings menu.

to mount both the cards on pc use the attached tool
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Foxhounnd:
Ah, thankyou very much, this is much better, and the camera ics+ rocks, finding much better quality.

What I wanted to ask was, with that prorgram, is there a way to make it so it replaces the stock usb connection, and so It only mounts the external sd not the internal?

And how do I navigate in apps, ie power amp to my external sd.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bala_gamer:
You can navigate your external SD just the usual way, select the music folders from "emmc" in power amp , it will show up in albums . There is no regular way to mount only the external. Both has different names when mounted, so you can differentiate easily.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Foxhounnd:
Ah thank-you very much. You're a life saver. One last question. Is there anyway to disable the default android USB pop up screen when you plug In the usb?

I'd like to make it so when I plug into into usb the clock app runs.

Looking for guidance... =)

I am a fifth year HS Math teacher. Undergraduate in Math- Planning on going for a Masters in Information Technology this Fall. But the thing is, I told my advisor, I really want to be exposed to many topics in the IT dept and figure out what I want to do. But then there is a part of me that really wants to go into Comp Sci and program. I'm reading through some Java tutorials now and am just very interested.

Teaching is great and I have had some of the best times and rewards teaching, but I can't imagine doing it for thirty years- graphing lines for thirty years, managing 35 people for thirty years, watching people with eyes in the back of my head for thirty years.

I want to work with adults, and I think IT can allow that. But I am curious about this programming aspect as well.

What would Xda's community recommend I do? I obviously have the mathematical mind to program and understand this stuff. I just need some direction from people who have been through similar situations and been down these paths.

Like I said, I'm currently enrolled to begin in August in an Information Systems masters program. I do have to take a .NET programming course as a pre-req. I'm also in System Analysis and Database Systems this coming semester.

Wow, thanks beforehand. It feels good to talk about this ^_^

I'm looking for some input from the flashaholics out there.

What is currently the fastest rom

with everything working (except 4G)

?

**Not worried about 4G since I'm unlocked. When I say fast I'm talking real world speed and smoothness.**
[Motorola Photon 4G] jrebo:

I keep coming back to this one for speed and stability.
[Motorola Photon 4G] strudel.chris:
Awesome. I was just going to ask this question here myself.

:D

I've finally dove into unlocking my bootloader.

I was using Imperative Initiative for a couple of weeks, but grew tired of the remnants of Blur and the overall red theme.

I was extremely happy with the performance, though!

I tried a few CM7 ROMS, and was happy with them, but through either my somewhat sloppy ROM flashing, or quirks of the CM7 ROMS, (Or the kernels I was throwing at the ROMS) bits and pieces weren't working for me.

(Synching with exchange servers, Wi-Fi issues etc...)

After wrestling with a few different CM7 ROMS, I'm getting Imperitave Initiative loaded back up right now.
[Motorola Photon 4G] CCallahan:
I'm currently on Loki's v1.0.4. It is a very nice rom but doesn't seem to be any smoother for me than stock. I know the benchmark scores might be better and there is more space free on the phone but I'm looking for a real world difference. Going to try with a different launcher and see how that feels.

So far I think CM9 has been the fastest interface but not everything works.

Anyone else? Maybe stock or stock w/deblur script is the fastest no-sacrifice interface there is for the Photon.

**Edit: I have tweaked the interface a bit more in Loki's 1.0.4 and now that it has run a bit I think the interface is indeed faster than it was with stock. Haven't added all my widgets yet but looks to be promising.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Lokifish Marz:
The problem with Imperium is the launcher. Then again the problem with Blur is the launcher. I included VTL as the dev has always responded to my include requests and overall it's not a bad launcher. Imperium really starts to shine when using smooth launchers. Zeam and LauncherPro run pretty smooth and Go runs like liquid. I may end up dropping VTL in the next release for more eyecandy and smoothness but am not sure yet.

CM has always been very responsive for me. A lot has to do with the lack of overhead from manufacturer junk. It takes a lot of magic to get most stock roms to perform as well as CM in general. Blur is pretty much hopeless in the regard as even running at 1.3 Blur home is still choppy junk.

Stock with the deblur script will show noticeable improvement but ADW is not the smoothest of launchers. It was used because nobody other than VTL responded to my include requests. A solution would be to pick a smooth, fast launcher and rename it to replace ADW in the script folder then run the script. If any of the launcher devs ever get back to me I will replace ADW. Then again I might just say the hell with it and use a smoother launcher without getting include permissions.
[Motorola Photon 4G] CCallahan:
Thanks for the tip. VTL was not running bad at all but put LPP on there and it is pretty quick (plus the features and built in widgets are nice to have). Have used Go in the past on stock but it slowed the phone up considerably when using the widgets. Zeam just doesn't have enough features for my taste.

So far your rom is kickin' some stock butt. I should of tried it sooner. Thanks.
[Motorola Photon 4G] lroy:
Flashaholics...?? What's that and is there a help class for this? Ha haLike a tractor beam, sucked me right in!

I haven't ran benchmarks on them all for a while, but 6476 on tutu is just wat I got on jokers cm9 0.6.0 build. I use for daily. Cm7 cy's builds was what I used before jokers, but ics runs super smooth for me so I stayed.

Best of luck in your descoveries.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Lokifish Marz:
jrebo's score is low because he's not using a class10 card and on the older version. With a class10 on v1.0.5 the scores are around 6500. Running at 750MhZ single core, Initiative v1.0.5 is about as fast as the OG Evo is at 1GhZ.
[Motorola Photon 4G] CCallahan:
Reason I don't really care about the benchmarks....variables. Real world performance (on my phone with my setup) is the only thing that matters to me, not some number.

I am crowning Loki's rom the champion. Everything works since it has stock base and my Photon could not be more responsive. There is zero lag between screens, app drawer launch, starting programs, etc. Everything I was looking for in an interface with added bonus of Webtop+/Ubuntop which is awesome in itself.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Lokifish Marz:
I only use certain benches for testing and analysis but folks can't seem to leave them alone as the final word on ROM performance. That's why I explained why the scores were what they were.

Webtop is about to get better for a lot of folks, not just unlocked MoPho users. More on that later.

BTW. Thanks for the the thumbs up on Imperium. If it wasn't for folks like you I would have dropped it a long time ago.

[General Questions and Answers] HarmV.:
Hi all :)

I'm in the final year of college and I'm writing a paper about free marketing for app publishers.

I'm trying to get an overview of the amount of time and money app publishers nowadays put in to marketing. So I'm hoping some of you people could help me out here. Anybody that published an app once, could you please answer a few simple questions for me? That would really help me out.

Thank you!

1) What is the name of the app you published?

2) Did you put in time/effort to promote this app? If yes, how much? (more or less)

3) Did you spend money on the marketing of that app? If yes, how much? (more or less)

4) Did you do a lot of research before you tried to promote your app, or did you just tried something?

5) Final question, do you think a paper about free marketing could help out a lot of app publishers, like yourself? What topic would interest you in reading this paper? (For instance, examples of succesfull free marketing campaigns, tips to improve your social media marketing etc.)

If you have any extra information about the marketing of your app that you like to share with me, please add it :)

Please reply your answers to me in this thread, or e-mail it to me: harmverbiest@hotmail.com

Thanks again!!

Haven't encountered such an issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zacisblack:
While I agree the phone drops signal randomly, there's no physical flaw that would cause it to drop while holding it a certain way. The only reason it happened to the iPhone is because the metal band around the phone was actually part of the antenna.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ingenious247:
Not too sure about that... the manual that came with the GSM Nexus stated that covering the main antenna would cause problems..

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tjotte:
If i put my hand on the upper back of the phone i go from 4bars wifi to 2bars.. so i would guess the antenna sits in this area.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] robrob777:
No change in signal bar but signal stregnth goes from

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Valynor:
A little bit of common sense would help.

Humans are bags full of water. Water dampens radio waves. So yes, your hand will decrease the signal strength if you wrap it around the antenna area - on all mobile phones.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gunner1937:
What about humans full of schnaps:D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Valynor:
Since those humans have a lot less than 1% Schnaps in them, it doesn't affect the dampening very much. :p

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] darkvice01:
So in other words drop of network signal while holding the lower part of the phone using the left hand is normal?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EliWay:
Just tried right now in an area that already has somewhat weak 3g & WiFi signals.. I sandwiched my hands around the bottom of the phone, and I actually got to drop both cell and Wifi :o

This is far from a surprise though, every single phone does that. iPhone is a different story because all you have to do is touch the metal gap, and that can actually happen in everyday use.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] darkvice01:
How about a normal hold when using your left hand? I didn't actually wrap my hands to the phone for the signal to drop.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Valynor:
If there is something between your phones atenna and the BTS (base transceiver station), it will likely dampen the signal. Even if it's just your pinky.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] darkvice01:
Tested the phone again in a good signal strength.. 20 asu.. if I use the right hand signal don't drop.. but its the left hand it drops to 13 to 15 asu.. I guess it only happens when you use the left hand. Problem is I'm lefty..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
If you have a death grip on your phone...save it for the bedroom.
