My problem is a little different. I am Using Broken out 1.1; when in car Dock,Com.android.phone crashes after every call. While that in itself is a minor Glitch, It KILLS my bluetooth requiring a reboot to reconnect. Had the same problem with Gingervolt & gave up.

I use my bluetooth exclusively in my car and otherwise LOVE Broken Out 1.1

I have an idea i am going to check out later this weekend. But if anyone has any insight, it would be appreciated. Perhaps Phone ap is different

Well after some research I believe it has to do with Car Mode. While LG Car home App su..... Is less than desireable. Appearently When in car mode the phone app looks for it after disconnecting. when it deosnt find it Bad things happen.

I have been experimenting with different car mode & personal assistant apps. I think I will try my hand at modding mye own & see where I go from there.
[LG Revolution] n00bzilla:
I'm having issues with connecting. I've only tried pairing with another phone. Going to try and pair with a BT speakerphone tonight. I looked up that Torque app and it looks awesome. Would like to try it out but don't want to invest in the adapter if my BT doesn't work.

Phone: Lg Revo (vs910) with Broken Out ROM, supercharged, thunderbolted, and ported Beats Audio files. I still have the stock music app and use it regularly.

EDIT: The device pairs but will not connect. Trying Bt'ing a picture to a friend and fails every time.
[LG Revolution] keithmcelhinney:
Holy crap I am so happy! Never been able to get my BT to work on any rom because I was removing the music app immediately! Thanks so much!

[LG Revolution] GuestK00134:
Haha same here! Amazing how many of us did that and scratched our heads trying to figure out why BT never worked! Who would have guessed in a million years that Bluetooth depended on the stock music app...so retarded

Hi! I can't seem to get past Android <2e> Recovery screen despite having clockworkmod recovery. I've even tried accessing the CWM screen manually or through ROM manager. :confused: Someone please help me.
[HTC One X] more2come:
I've been playing around with TegraStats for a while now and found out, that the CPU's up- and downscaling acts kinda weird from time to time.

For example, running CPU intensive tasks like Antutu benchmark will fire up all four cores, but maximum clock was always 1200 MHz instead of 1400 MHz. Seems kinda "capped" through kernel parameters (correct me if I'm wrong).

So I've tried Shadowgun after benchmarking. In this case, the CPU scaled down to around 360 MHz from time to time, resulting in heavy stuttering during gameplay in huge environments. That's what really bothered me, 'cause same happened with Riptide GP from time to time, just random encounters.

So I installed good old ROM Toolbox (very nice tool by the way) and enforced Performance governor.

Result of this was that cores 0 and 1 scaled very nicely during gameplay (Shadowgun), but cores 2 and 3 were shut down permanently. Really weird stuff, but the game ran much, much better with just those 2 very stable scaling cores!

My best guess is that HTC really messed up the default governor, I hope they'll release kernel sources soon, so our kernel devs can take a look at this.
[HTC One X] BarryH_GEG:
Nvidia's low-level code and drivers are proprietary and have been since Teg2. So there's only so much the devs (and HTC) can do.

What you're describing is exactly what happened to the Asus Prime when the first few updates were released. Clock speeds were locked (that hadn't been) and the way the cores worked together was modified and in the process both performance

and

battery life were lost. It appears that in real world use the way the processors step is very different than Nvidia's marketing material.

I'd be willing to bet you that you'll observe different results using different updates. Code and drivers are going to be modified to fix the graphics issues and improve battery life and those changes are going to alter the way the processor taps and manages the different cores.

Does your phone flicker? It would be interesting to see the results of TegraStats on flickering vs. non-flickering phones. It's a shame you have to be rooted to use it because that limits the number of people who can post results.

Is there some sort of test you can come up with that people can use to compare different phones to see if the results are different? I'm not rooted or I'd help.
[HTC One X] more2come:
I never experienced any flickering so far, seems to be just fine!

Well, easiest part to reproduce is test 1, I guess. Your phone needs to be rooted, you need TegraStats from the Play Store and Antutu Benchmark.

During CPU benchmarking, all four cores are at 100% load, but they're stuck at 1.2 GHz.

Another thing that bothers me is the browser performance with web pages that include alot of different content, like the desktop page of engadget.com .

The One X lags alot during pinch to zoom, I think it's because of text reflow and constant repositioning of pictures and flash content. But with performance governor, the browser runs like hell!

I'll keep playing around with some settings, will post them here if something useful comes out.
[HTC One X] TommUK:
What sort of Quadrant/ Antutu scores are you getting with performance governer?
[HTC One X] treebill:
When I test my phone they stay at 1.4 but do go to 1.5 in games but not in benchmarks, maybe the CPU has a turbo boost of some sort.
[HTC One X] Cxpher:
Cpu also spikes when you scroll between screens. Largely due to the carousel effect on Sense. Spikes too much imo. They need to optimize Sense for the Tegra 3.
[HTC One X] TremF:
I read that 1.5Ghz was the fastest single core speed and for multi cores the fastest is 1.4Ghz. So a benchmark using all cores will hit 1.4Ghz but a game running on a single core will hit 1.5Ghz...

"Up to Single Core 1.5 GHz /Quad-Core 1.4 GHz"

Has anyone been able to test this with the One X yet? I know it works with my Transformer Prime :)

"3D Stereo Gaming - This capability leverages NVIDIA’s award-winning NVIDIA 3D Vision® technology to automatically, and in real-time, convert OpenGL based games and apps into Stereo 3D."
[HTC One X] Try4Ce:
Tried setting up Performance and my system became somewhat unstable.

Running ARHD 5.0 @ Firmware 1.29

Browser didnt rly improve in performance, too. Compared the desktop site of engadget with interactive and performance. Both performed pretty poor here.

Plus: With performance I get 1400Mhz constantly, and my phone heated up pretty fast pretty bad. In regular homescreen use I easily reached 40 degrees whereas with interactive I usually reach tops of 32-33 degrees....
[HTC One X] treebill:
just tested for you :)

1) all 4 cores on during benchmark

2) 2 cores disabled (dual core)

as you can see with 4 cores the max was 1.2GHZ where as on only 2 cores the max was 1.4GHZ

even with setting the max cores to 1 it still used 2 cores so i concluded it wouldn't be a fair test.
[HTC One X] TremF:
I wonder if HTC have messed with the CPU working somehow? Nvidia def state "Up to Single Core 1.5 GHz /Quad-Core 1.4 GHz" here.

and the test I was asking about was the 3D Stereo Gaming :)

I like how with my Prime there's 3 diff settings. Powersave - 1.0Ghz, Standard 1.2Ghz and Full speed (not the actual names but I don't have my Prime in front of me) 1.4Ghz so you can set it depending on what you are doing. Plus with root and overclock upto 1.6Ghz :) or 1.7/8Ghz with kernal change/custom rom.
[HTC One X] treebill:
still going to count the tests as valid lol, on 4 cores my phone only got to 1.2 GHz where you posted it should be 1.4 which was only the case on 2 cores.
[HTC One X] zvieratko:
This is going to work the same way it works for "Regular" computer CPUs.

Core i7 scales frequencies (and does turboboost) depending on the overral load. You get the highest boost with just one core, a little lower with two, and very little with all of them (this depends on package heat dissipation and is usually set by BIOS in laptops - not sure about desktops). For computers, there is software called Throttlestop which allows you to tune some of these parameters, not sure what can be done on Tegra3.
[HTC One X] TremF:
Aye. Can't argue with proper test results. I think for games I'll stick to my Prime with 1.6Ghz max, less heat and more battery :)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] jayjayjoker2:
My captivate froze so I pulled my battery and put it back in I had 58% battery I turned it back on and now its 9% what the heck happend
[Samsung Captivate Glide] gabby131:
we have an ongoing conversation about your concern here.

there are some posts in here as well...
[Samsung Captivate Glide] jayjayjoker2:
What's weird is now it went from 9% to 15% without charging
[Samsung Captivate Glide] EMegamanu:
If possible never pull out your battery and prefer to use the power + vol keys combinaison. ;)

I have a bad memory about reading topics of Desire Z eMMC issues.

As well, my phone freeze sometimes, in use, in charge or in sleep. (~ 1 time a day)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] VinayS:
both are known issues to me.. has happened around 8-10 times for me in 5 months usage of my phone.. i think i can live with it, as i dont know the root-cause..

---------- Post added at 08:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:15 AM ----------

Will not work in this case... Only option was to remove and re-insert your battery and power On.

Strange, this shortcut works for me. it is just a little bit long. :confused:

And like I said, "if possible".
[HTC One X] ezyaz007:
Hi all,

thinking of buying the onex in Australia.. the phone is locked to Vodafone, but i am a telstra user.. does anyone know if the one x will work properly on the telstra 3g network at 850mhz once unlocked from vodafone??

Also is it hard to do a rom flash ,as i havent been able to do this on an android phone(not real tech savvy) as i would like to remove any "inbuilt" vodafone apps/links/features from the phone completely!!
[HTC One X] tsqpu:
Yes. Provided your phone is not sim locked.
[HTC One X] ezyaz007:
Im being told that it isnt sim locked by person selling to me!!

some will say all sorts just to get a sale!!
[HTC One X] VAgathon:
I'm using an HTC One X from Optus and it works great on Telstra. I'm not sure if Vodafone sells them unlocked but I believe you can get them unlocked by Vodafone.

Got mine from Allphones.
[HTC One X] 777ace:
Yep, buy outright (SIM unlocked) and you'll be sweet.

I also bought at AllPhones and am running LiveConnected (cos Telstra bite big time :D ). I still get the Optus boot screen, but it's not a big deal, only pops up for a second.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sdardz:
Hi all.

My SGS2 needs to be sent in for repairs in the imminent future, and in preparation I unrooted my phone and flashed a Stock ICS build (my carrier is Optus, Australia). Before this I was running a few different GB roms. When I boot my phone I do not get the yellow triangle (I assume this is because I am running official Samsung firmware), but if I put the phone into download mode, it still shows the 8 custom flashes I did earlier.

My real question is will Chainfire's Triangle Away app remove the binary count even if the triangle isn't there?

And a better question would be, would having official firmware be enough to still claim warranty, or would I need to have both official firmware and a "0" custom flash count?

Thanks for any help!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beetfarmer:
I believe Samsung may throw a stink about the counter, even if you are on stock/official firmware. This counter would imply that you have voided your warranty previous to the current state of the phone and it's OS ;)

To be safe I would use the Triangle away app :)

EDIT: Yes, the app does reset the flash counter. See https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.triangleaway&hl=en
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bala_gamer:
Its always safe to clear the counter before returning it for service. yes the triangle away app will clear the counter with/without triangle.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sdardz:
Thanks guys!

I tried to run the app but it's telling me I need Superuser access...

Does this mean I need to root the phone, use the triangle away app, then UNroot the phone?

Sorry if this is obvious... Not overly confident of my ability to keep the phone unbricked haha.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kaze105:
You are correct. Root the phone first, use the app, then unroot.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sdardz:
Thanks!

So it will still think it's Samsung official after that process?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wezi:
You'll need a rooted ICS firmware already on your phone.

Check the Triangle Away forum to ensure its working with your firmware version.

Flash Triangle Away, this will remove Yellow Triangle and reset Custom Counter to 0.

Flash official unrooted firmware using Odin, this wont increase your Custom Counter as its official. Use a firmware thats specific to your region.

Job done.

Also check my sigi for links :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sdardz:
Thanks! This forum is full of amazing help.

So theoretically I could follow those steps then flash the stock ROM a thousand times and the flash counter would remain at 0?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rooster19:
If it makes you feel any better I went to Optus 3 weeks ago with a phone that wouldn't turn on with ICS for another region with root and they fixed it.

I think my USB jig cleared the counter to 0 though. I couldn't connect my phone to dl mode or anything

The app removes the triangle as well as the counter :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sdardz:
Yeah I tried using the jig a while ago but I think I have the newer bootloader, so it didn't do anything, which was very disappointing.

I'd just hate to take it in then have them tell me to get bent because I rom'ed it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sdardz:
Ok so let me know if theres a problem with my process.

I'm using ICS and the kernel is XWLP4.

There was no LP4 in Chainfires thread but I read that I could use the next closest one. So I should flash something like "CF-Root-SGS2_XW_O2U_LP3-v5.4-CWM5.zip" and then triangle away then use the Optus stock ICS?

UPDAT: I tried this method and it worked perfectly! Thanks so much to everyone who helped.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khrone:
has worked like a charm for me everytime i put stock firmwares on my phone :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d3l1:
Safest way is to flash a really old firmware and thus flashing the old bootloader. Now reset the counter with an usb jig. Done.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
Or just flash the old bootloader.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Daddy43205:
Netflix highest volume compared to Youtube and ect. Is not as loud for some reason on my phone even with all my volumes up to the limit is there a way to change this?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dw3bb10:
I hate how low Netflix volume is, as well.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] krisI0N:
If your kernel supports it, you could use voodoo+, sounds plus, or xlouder, or dsp manager, to change the over all volume louder
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MicrosoftBug:
I use volume+ and it works pretty well.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Daddy43205:
I believe these apps raises the volume of the phone....the volume of my phone is perfectly fine but just for 1 particular app netflix which is not loud enough.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] arpruss:
My VolumeSwipe lets you adjust the volume by swiping along the edge of the screen in the small number of apps that it supports. It has a boost mode which lets you increase the volume beyond the OS settings. So one option, though not a very convenient one, is to install VolumeSwipe and turn on its boost mode. Then in Netflix, just swipe up to increase volume to 120% (say). When you're done watching the movie, swipe back down to a normal volume level before exiting Netflix.

I haven't tried VolumeSwipe on the E4GT as I designed it exclusively for the Kindle Fire (which needs something like it since it doesn't have volume keys), so the screen layout may look bad on a smaller screen, but it's worth trying.

If you find that VolumeSwipe gives you the kind of volume setting you like, you can post back in this thread and ask me nicely to add an option to remember the volume levels in the supported apps and to restore outside of them. This way, each time you start up Netflix (or one of the other supported apps--there aren't many) you'll get the same volume level, and when you leave Netflix, you'll get a default level.

Alternately, per-app volume-boost would be a nice feature to add to my per-app settings app.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Docarut:
Thank you!! Boosts enough in Netflix. If you can add option of remembering volume levels I am asking nicely! Really.

Thanks for all your effort,

Doc
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Daddy43205:
actually that would be very nice and a nice feature im sure every1 could enjoy....also if you could the volume maxes out at 140 im not sure if im getting the same results as the guy above me lol but im getting miminal boost im thinking 175% would be perfect.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] arpruss:
I worry that it might damage the speakers.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] arpruss:
I decided to do this not with VolumeSwipe (which I recommend uninstalling), but instead with my in-development PerApp app, which lets you set different per-application settings.

PerApp 0.01 lets you control Volume Boost and Orientation Lock.

To set Netflix to a louder volume, run PerApp. Select Netflix. Choose "Boost". Set a volume level like "6" (=140% in VolumeSwipe). Back out of the setting. Then check off "Active".

Try syncmypix
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rotorsk8r:
I think i'm having the same issue? You don't want to have the Facebook pic, instead you want a high resolution photo from your gallery? I have tried everything but the only fix I could find is to uninstall facebook!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] homeslice976:
The facebook app and ICS don't play real nice as far as syncing contact pics. syncmypics was recommended, however I use Friendcaster as a Facebook replacement. Once you set it up, go to Settings-Accounts and Sync, and set Friendcaster to Sync Contacts. Give it a while and you'll be all set.

To do this all you would need to do is go to the People app, select the contact, Menu - Edit Contact. Now click the contact's picture, and it will ask you what/where you want your picture from. Choose Gallery, then choose your image

So, i had my phone with the MIUI rom but i wasn't really liking because it was a little slow, so i flashed Kyrillos 9.5

After i flashed Kyrillos 9.5 i start having some battery issues, i was thinking that it was some problem of the ROM so i went away to flash another ROM, but ODIN didn't detected my phone, i upgraded the drivers and nothing.

My last try was to flash a rom by the update.zip method.

It didn't ended well and now i can't use the phone at all, it just stucks at bootloading.

If someone can help me to get my phone working again it would really help because i can't even use it.

follow bscrazes advice, try other usb ports and then reboot your pc and try again, if that doesnt work still;

enter recoverymode (hold down both volume keys, power button and center button) then go to mounts and storage and choose usb mass storage device.

then plug it into your computer, it should just recognise it as a mass storage device, from here open folders and place a good update zip on it. suggested cm7a8.1

then apply update from zip.

this should work,

[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] turboblaz:
I agree :)
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] allspark2020:
Though I'm giving the advice a bit late :p try the following

first uninstall all samsung stuff (even drivers) from your computer.

Then as Jason-EX said install usb drivers for samsung mobile

If you are unable to get to recovery try the following:

When the phone is powered off press power,volume down and home button simultaneously (now you should directly enter download mode)

connect it to computer now odin will recognise your phone

Flash some stable rom or kernel

Just converted to winpho, and I love all the integration and fluidity as everyone says. But I feel like it takes up way too much data.

tl;dr. data usage hitting 10+mb daily, <3mb on android. wtf?

I find myself hitting 10mb+ daily, when i was below 3mb on android. WiFi continuously on (it wasn't on android either). I browsed wiki (one page) and used bing once, and found myself at 10mb halfway through the day. The only running app with data usage (that i know off) is 2 gmail account (probably 20 emails total, all text), with 30min interval and metrotalk (google voice client).

Looking at tmobile data spreadsheet, my phone seems to randomly access about 5+mb (up to like 13mb) daily in one section of time, and everything else below 1mb. I stream no music or video.

Not a new toy syndrome either, I used the phone for half a month already and found this trend.
