[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schust3r5:
I don't really know much about overclocking but it is it worth it? And how do I do it?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmlusco:
Well its really a matter of taste. Overclocking makes the phone a bit snapier and makes large games a bit quicker, but it also eats away at your battery faster. In my opinion overclocking is not worth it based on the small performance boost and larger battery drain. I actually under clock and undervolt to get max battery life with little or no hit to performance.

To over/under clock/volt you need to be rooted and install a kernel that supports the features and is compatible with your type of rom. From there you can use scripts or one of several apps on the market to change the values to your liking.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiny4579:
It makes your CPU run faster and things MAY be smoother for you. Is it worth it? Depends on how concerned for stability you are. Things could be more unstable for a possibly unnoticeable performance gain. This is coming from someone who enabled overclocking in his kernels.

If you think it's still worth it, you'd need to flash an appropriate custom kernel for the ROM you're using and install an app such as nofrills or incredicontrol or setcpu or system tuner (to name a few) to activate overclocking.
[LG Optimus 3D] Arkane24:
Having a bit of an issue, not sure of how to fix this. Looked all over the net and forums and haven't seen a solution.

I have an LG p925g, unlocked it, then updated it through the LG update tool from 2.2.2 to 2.3.5. The update process went smoothly, though after the update, images in the play store no longer load, and the phone absolutely will not download any programs from the store or the net at all, it hangs on loading.

I am at a complete loss, because texting, internet, phone works just fine, but this is my problem. Is there any solutions to this?
[LG Optimus 3D] vicdo1000:
Is your phone rooted?

First thing you can try is to go to App Manager and clear data, clear cache and clear defaults.

if this doesnt work and you are a rooted user, uninstall Google Play and flash Gapps (Google Apps) back onto your phone fresh.

That may help.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bluefire118:
would it possible to create an automated script that roots your existing rom like what this genetlemen sfhub has done over there in the ept4g forum...this avoids upping the counter and the birth of the yellow triangle..

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1342728

or a one click odin..im guessing he took a tar that is completely stock and just added root, everything is basically automated after opening the .exe ...you guys can check that out here

I brung this to attention so maybe someone could get idea to hopefully bypass upping the counter and the entrance of the yellow doom :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] welchertc:
Upping the counter isn't really an issue, we have a reset for it, and also a way of flashing CWM without upping it. And once you have CWM, you can flash ROMs without upping the counter. And the yellow triangle isn't doom, it's just a form of download mode where you can still flash back to stock using ODIN and give it another go. The process of rooting is already pretty simple, all it takes is flashing CWM through ODIN and then superuser through CWM. That process is good to learn if you're coming from stock anyways, as it gets you used to using ODIN and CWM. Also, unless you're on stock, the other ROMs are already pre-rooted when you flash them.

Sorry, not trying to rain on your parade, just saying it would be work for a developer that isn't really necessary. Who knows though, maybe if one of them wants it they will build it.

No. of compilation: IML74K.UHLPE .

I used the root explorer . I was in the folder / system / app (not apps) . renamed the C (uppercase) to amera.apk. bak to bak and Camera.odex . I copied the attributes changed to 644 and reboot . When he returned the camera starts to be activated and everything is dark.

Would someone help me?

Have I to use the original factory (instead of new I´ve installed) ??

Could someone help-me ??

Thank you!!

Does anyone know why after putting on custom roms hulu breaks?

Also if i flash back to stock will that fix it? i dont want to hassle with it if it doesnt.

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 6stringaddict:
Modded Hulu

Hulu breaks because it requires DRM verification that you can't get on custom roms. I know you said that you don't want to use the modded version but it works well. I have attached the link to the comment I made on the CM9 thread regarding it. Download the landscape version to browse in landscape. If you have ad away, follow the instructions in the second quote to allow hulu to work with ad blocking still on.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JustusIV:
If I flash back to stock will it work again? And why can't whatever drm check they do be rolled into custom rooms?

Also just looked everywhere for that guide to go back to stock and couldn't find it. Anyone know here it is?

*EDIT*

From what i read is TWRP doesnt like to flash the stock roms. but CWM does it fine. I will have to switch over to CWM as i have TWRP installed currently.

Before i go to all this work i would really like to make sure that hulu works on stock with an unlocked bootloader.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JustusIV:
Went back to rooted stock... hulu works fine.

By now most of you know the drill

But it went like this.

Flash CWM... Do this via fastboot, NOT ROM MANAGER!

Flash Stock

Reflash CWM... I think stock breaks the first flash

Flash root

profit.

Thank you to all the devs that work so hard.

One question remains.

Why does custom roms break hulu and is there a way to change that?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JustusIV:
EEK i am a bonehead.... i never actually streamed a video from hulu i just got past the DRM prompt. I have a different message preventing me from watching hulu now. Something about Streaming Unavailable. make sure i have the latest official update.... :/

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hasoon2000:
Looking to bring you guys into the action. I'm gonna purchase a kindle fire online on Monday and then make a toolkit on it.

Just a few questions.

You guys use Fastboot commands or no?

Ex: Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img, Fastboot flash boot boot.img

A personal question myself, since there is no removable battery, is there a button trick to shut it off if it freezes?

I have to put all this into consideration when I make the toolkit.

Thanks!

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidcues:
Fastboot works real well with the fire. Its a nice device to use with adb and fastboot.

The drivers are really finicky and once you get them set up....don't change anything with regard to your computer as far as your kindle fire development setup. The trick for me (windows 8) is to force disable windows driver signing protocol and to use the windows device manager and USB deview to get the kindle fire drivers established. I would not start off with the kindle fire utility kit or put that in the same directory as your kindle fire development file.

Its a great device and I think a new toolkit does no harm and promotes further development. I strongly advise using TWRP recovery and not clockwork mod as there's some unresolved issues with damaged emmc partitions causing brickedness. (See hashcodes thread with regard to cwm recovery for the 3.0 kernel)

That 3.0 kernel (by Hashcode) pumped massive growth into this device as we did not have hardware acceleration prior to that (outside of the Amazon forked build.)

Now I've no idea what a toolkit is but I'll help test drive anyhow. What's the other toolkit? Vashypoors KFU? That is a nice setup but IMHO people ought to be able to handle ADB and fastboot business before using that KFU or any other toolkit.

You asked about the bootloader? Great write up about why the stock image was replaced by FIREFIREFIRE by Pokey9000 I'll try to find it later but it should be one if the stickied threads here. You can't do a thing with the stock bootloader.

Edit --- I now know what you mean by a toolkit... I didnt realize you made one for the One-S. (nice work, that!!)

Now Im going to get a bit straightforward, dont get me wrong --- these toolkits are great, but they are akin to giving just about anyone on the street a loaded gun... toolkits give an absolute noob or a person who has absolutely no idea whatsoever what they are doing a false sense of security and they believe they have full control of the device where they clearly do not. You effectively give people the easy mind-numbingly-easy opportunity to change something on their device and then they have no idea what its doing or how to get out of any predicament. Thankfully, there are things called "Drivers-Education" and then a "Test" prior to all 16 year olds getting permission to operate motor vehicles!

IT WOULD be cool if you made your toolkit lockable which is unlocked only by the user successfully performing various executions of simple adb and fastboot activities.... i use these toolkits only when my keyboard is broke, or my hands are broke or otherwise occupied by children.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kheladu:
If you use the KFU on your kindle to root everything should go well. You may encounter problems if you do it manually at least I did a little a bit others my have not. For the driver issue the KFU comes with drivers use them instead when your computer asks for the location. I wish you luck with the toolkit the more the merrier:)
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
While I'm a huge proponent of the manual method of rooting/modifying the Kindle Fire, I don't think having programs like the KFU is a major problem. The only way Kindle Fire development is going to grow is with more users, even if those users are noobs looking to take the easy way out. The more popular the device becomes, the more likely experienced developers will jump on board.

There really isn't much you can do about people who refuse to follow directions or educate themselves before getting into trouble, other than complaining about it and posting stupid threads like "This is what you people sound like". It all comes with the territory, especially in a world where a mentally retarded two year old can jailbreak an iPhone and feel like a genius afterwards.

As long as people are still searching for the "any" key, I'll still be mumbling TSTFO and yelling HLMGIFY until my face turns blue but I'll be more than willing to put up with it to see this community grow and get some awesome development in the process. So yes, I say bring on the Toolkit, the worst that could happen is I get more fuel for my sick sense of humor.
