Please feel free to delete this if there is a similair thread. I have searched already and found nothing.

This could be a possible way of speeding up games while your running CM9 rom.

I haven't tried it on all games, especially on games like GTA III.

I was following this guide [CM9/AOKP] How to use HDPI themes on your MDPI device easily. by *se-nsei. on how to use HDPI themes on a MDPI device and i liked the screen size.

So I decided to keep the LCD density as the guide specified, I went into a few games that I have installed and noticed that the games seemed to load up faster and loading times were low in-game.

**Update.**

The only issue I have found so far is that after a while games start saying incompatible with your device in Google Play. The solution is to get the pro version of the app in the guide and use the compatibility error fix

The games I have tested on are:

Draw Something (Faster loading times)

Hanging with Friends (Faster loading times & loads faster)

Scramble with Friends (Faster loading times)

Slot City (Faster loading times)

Words with Friends (Faster loading times)

Zynga Poker (Faster loading times & loads faster)

When I have tested more games I will update this post.

If you have tried the guide and played different games post the results here and I will add them to this post.

you could also use ram manager pro with the hard gaming setting to get a little more performance aswell :D

Add debug.gr.swapinterval=0 build.prop entry :)

Dnt forget to revert back if unstable :D

But doing that way would require reinstalling the rom wouldn't it?

[HTC Wildfire S] asdot:
Nope. you dnt need to reinstall rom.

Just add that entry or edit value if it already exist.

Edit: backup nand first or backup build.prop file as flashable zip.

Just in case if it fails.

I have bought this product due to its oil-resistant feature. But it is not working. Lol. My screen was better without it. It keeps fingerprints and oil very much and as i said before without it the fingerprints and oil surface was not disturbing me. So what do you suggest me for a screen protector? A real one. Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] resynx:
XO is a very good one and recommended by many.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Oxirane:
I didn't realize this phone had that feature. This explains why my Nexus seems to get so fewer fingerprints than my old Vibrant did, I suppose.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bboran:
Thank you for your answer. Where can i buy it. Can you provide a link? Thanks.

Also which cases do you recommend?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PacerguyDon:
You can buy direct from XO Skins Click me.

They are really great to deal with, and quick to ship.

Cases depend on what you want, lots of protection or light weight and basically just scratch protection for the body.

I like and currently use the Ringke Slim Click me, but it doesn't offer a lot drop protection. but it doesn't add much in bulk or size.

I also have an Otterbox commuter Click me it's a more protective case, and also adds a little more size to the phone as well.

I have the Incipio Ngp Click me which I like a lot as well. It's very similar to the Diztronic cases Click me. Only draw back to the Ngp is just the power and volume buttons lose a lot of there feel, making it a little harder to press.

Hope this helps you out a little.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bboran:
Thank you very much for your detailed answer. It helped me a lot. Final question; What do you think of SGP's Neo Hybrid Case? I like it's design but some people says it deforms in heat.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PacerguyDon:
I haven't tried the SGP's Neo Hybrid Case so I really can't give an answer to this question. They do look nice, and look to offer good protection.

Maybe someone that has one will offer an opinion.

Delete this thread if you must, but I'm really curious... Given all the rumors about Google releasing android 5.0 this month, I just thinking... If it WERE to happen, would we be likely to get a port of it on the sensation? Sorry if this is dumb

They're likely to announce it this month at Google io, but it won't be released for another few months.

I'm sure some of the talented devs here will get working on a port when source code is available.

Give a man a fish, you feed him for a day. Teach him to fish, feed him for a lifetime.

So I'm gonna help you the best way I can on this. First, there is a Q & A Forum, is it for stuff like this. Two, there is a thread for the recovery, answers many of your questions. Third, read the stickies in the forums. If a thread gets a sticky, it's normally a darn good sign of stuff you should read, especially in the dev forums. The stickies contain the rest of your answers and more.

Simply put, if you learn to find your answers, you will get much less flaming (which you most likely will get some for your post) and learn even more than your original question also, preventing future issues and advancing your knowledge.

[General Questions and Answers] Darkling92:
Hello dear readers,

i just stumbled upon a problem with the app "Tasker".

I want to use a task that enables GPS when a specific app is started.

The problem that occurs is that Tasker doesn't even let me implent the option for GPS. If I tick the option to turn on gps I get a popup message that Google changed things like that GPS can not be changed by apps without user input. And if I want to use this option anyways I have to use another ROM, e.g. Cyanogen.

Then i get redirected to the options again.

I dont understand why I get this error message, because I AM using Cyanogenmod.

does anyone have a solution to this?

Thank you! :)

[Samsung Infuse 4G] Cjohns8792:
When I plug my USB cable into my computer and then into my phone the phone does not recognize the computer and vice versa. It will charge, but that is it. A few weeks ago I tried an AOKP rom which has "fast charge" I set this setting to be on to test it out and then turned it off. Ever since then I have not been able to transfer files with the cable plugged in, so I used AirDroid to wirelessly do it. I remember something in the warning about it, but I thought when you format/wipe and flash a new rom it corrects the issue. I have flashed a completely new rom since then and still nothing. Any help would be nice, thanks.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] mg2195:
Try going back to stock through Odin or heimdal
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Hellion_zk:
How are you supposed to Odin/heimdall, if it doesn't connect even during download mode?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] mg2195:
Lol didn't think of that...when I had my infuse I had the same problem with the stock USB cable...after a while data transfer stopped and it became a charge only cable...I would use my dads cable that worked perfect for data transfer...

So try a different USB cord or try a different USB port...
[Samsung Infuse 4G] rainbow99984:
You can try this too

Hi, I faced this issue few times and tried several options like change cable/port/computer and worked.

One thing Recently i noticed when all of the above failed in my case is :- 1 Development->Uncheck the USB debug mode, 2. Check Mass Storage in USB connection setting. ( you need to unplug usb cable while doing it)

Now try connecting and give few minutes. If you can see the USB mass storage notification you are good to go. Go back and change the Debug mode as Checked.

It worked for me couple of times hope it may work for you too.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Rebelranger:
Sounds like the dreaded USB port failure. Many Infuse users have gone through this as its a known issue. I returned mine and got a replacement via warranty.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] dango1:
This damn device vibrating all the time and it's impossible to use it, even can't call someone, that drives me crazy anymore, and all I can do seems like using a script revealed on the web. However to be able to run that script, if I'm not mistaken, I have to root the device.

Well, rooting a.62 entails unlocking the boot loader. Don't know why I couldn't manage it. So, tried to downgrade to A.42 with WotanClient. However, again, it didn't work. Just connecting the device while holding the volume down button, but the application can't recognize the device.

Now, what can I do to make those script stuff work, if rooting is the only way to go, then how can I root A.62 version ?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Feanor88:
Check THIS thread and thank the author if it helps :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Someguyfromhell:
Turn the phone off, hold down Volume DOWN button, connect the USB cable. Green LED has to turn on, nothing will be on the screen. Then is phone in flashmode. If app cannot find the device, install proper drivers.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] dango1:
Well, I downloaded booth flashtool and firmware. Followed the steps in the given instructions however when I connect the device by pushing and holding volume down button, it identifies the device but does nothing, then device gets disconnected by itself. What am I supposed to do.

After installing the rootable GB ROM .58, how do you get back up to the current version of GB?

Mike
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] dango1:
I'm using Vista.

Couldn't get what you mean in the last sentence. I'm trying to root to A.0.42
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] panamamike:
Actually, I tried to enter two posts, they are separate. I was asking a question. :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] dango1:
Ok I got it but the didn't understand the question
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] panamamike:
If I do the downgrade to Gingerbread version .58 then root it, how do I upgrade GB to the most recent version and maintain root?

Regards,

Mike
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] dango1:
Well I'm not very knowledgeable about it but if you root it on 0.58 you have to stick to it, even the reason downgrading is to be able to root it, since recent versions can not be rooted, right.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] limap5:
Actually, you can by following this tutorial. Instead of flashing ICS 4.0.4, do flash GB .62 (latest).
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] dango1:
Thanks but what I need is not that for now, I couldn't even flash to 0.42
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] DragonClawsAreSharp:
The problem your hpone has is a common problem. (look up on google). It is caused by a know issue on the Xperia Mini. The overheating. I experienced the same issue too. The capacitive buttons are actually heat sensetive and respont to the warmth of the body when touched. In case of mini, due to faulty hardware, the touchscreen getss excessively hot, and the back button asusumes "touch" all the time.

Many thought it was over sensitiveness of the back button rather than over heat of the device. But it turns out, the Sony themselves recognised the issue, and promised a replacement. I did it myself from the local Service Centre, I will recommended you to go the same.

About flashing using flashtool, first select the ROM in flashtool, and then connect the device by pressing the back button when asked.

Thanks,

Rick

Do not forget to hit Thanks
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Feanor88:
Once flashed the 058 firmware and rooted it, you can upgrade via OTA (not PC Companion) to .62 without losing root.

Remember that having an unlocked bootloader would brick the phone. Use OTA only with locked bootloader.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] dango1:
Thanks for your post, but I'm aware of the reason of that problem and as you said I followed all the steps, including connecting while depressing the volume down button, but nothing happens, flashing process does not start.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Feanor88:
Try to download the latest version of flashtool.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] dango1:
Somehow I managed to downgrade to .42

And then rooted it with a dos interfaced application. Looks like it has been rooted but how can I tell if it is or not ?

When it comes main reason of all those burdensome endeavor, I'm tried to run the script for heating problem. Installed the Gscript. Created a new script and click to run, however a blue screen comes up and nothing happens. Vibration problem still reigns.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Feanor88:
To know if you have root, just check if SuperUser app is installed. Now when you run GScript, SuperUser shuold ask you if you want to allow root access for the application. If not, there's a problem :/
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] dango1:
:/ there is no such application on the menu.

But the doomlord_v4_root application has worked well and it said "all done" at the end and restarted the phone.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Feanor88:
Oh well... I don't know -__-

I mean, I'm not such an expert user, maybe someone else knows if this is a common issue or not. Sorry, you'll have to wait for someone else's help :(

EDIT

Did you use THIS tool?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] dango1:
Retried it and this time it worked, FINALLY !!

Script is working as well.

Thanks everybody for your help,
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] dango1:
Now I wonder something, Phone asks for updating to A.0.62

If I update it, will the root be deleted and script become useless ?

It's on the notification menu at the top and I'm scared to click it by mistake :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Feanor88:
If you update via OTA, root will NOT be lost. This means that even if your touchscreen starts messing up again you'll be able to run the script and fix it again :)

Updating via PC Companion cancels root. Don't do that, or you'll have to start from the beginning :p
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] dango1:
Okay I got it, so for ICS, we are supposed to wait for OTA version in order to maintain the root.

By the way is there instruction for OTA update ?

Thanks again.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Feanor88:
For OTA update, just open Update Centre on the phone and update :p

To root ICS 4.0.4, since you start from a rooted GB, you should follow THIS tutorial :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] dango1:
Ahaa, so I got it wrong. The update is the same but the way we do it is different, right ? One is on phone itself through wi-fi, other is through pc companion and the latter is dangerous.

Alright.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] motorazrv3:
If you have rooted your 0.58 gb then you can update to latest gb over the air (ota).

Check your phones update center if the update is available. Updating ota will keep your phone rooted.

I did it so on my lww as I was on gb too.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] dango1:
Actually I downgraded to 0.42 not to 0.58

Is it still okay me to update OTA ?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Feanor88:
Yes, it's ok to update from .42 :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Someguyfromhell:
There is no OTA update for ICS. At all.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xzillerationer:
Hi,

It seems every so often my phone decides to reject the SIM. Most of the time, I can fix the problem by rebooting, but sometimes I have to open the phone and remove the SIM, and put it back. This can be a hassle for me, because sometimes it happens during school(only got a week left so it's not that much of a hassle), and I can't rip apart my phone and do it in the middle of class. I'm using the 9-20120525-NIGHTLY-toro version of CM9, and will be updating, but this seems like an issue that might not be fixed by that.

I also get my phone stuck thinking that it is charging when it left the plug, which can only usually be resolved with a battery pull, as not even a reboot can fix it. Can anyone help me at all?

Also, if this counts as a question, sorry. I wasn't sure, and accidentally read that post after I posted this one, because the issue is rather urgent, so if it is a question, just delete it, and I'll repost it in the Q/A forum. Sorry!
[HTC One S] snwman:
Right so been getting this fault error this last few days. Whenever I call some one I keep getting cut off. Then the phone would say restricted access and then get a small dialog box saying preparing sim card. But it keeps happening over and over. Plus only seems to happen when I call out. Receving calls don't get the problem.

Now I have full coverage when it happens so its not due to a weak signal.

I tried a new sim card to see if that fixed the problem but no joy. Also reflashed Rom with clean install and still got the problem.

Anyone got any ideas.

[HTC One X] eyeofthetiger:
I have had my htc desire hd for nearly 2 years and quite simply its the best phone I have ever owned. Everything more or less works well except GPS which is slow to get a lock. I am seriously considoring upgrading to the HTC one X. I bought the galaxy note but returned it after 1 week. Although tthe screen was outstanding, unfortunately I wasnt a fan of the interface and decided that having got used to htc I would stick with it.

Can someone post a review of the one X compared to a desire HD they may have owned. In particular in these critical areas:

1) Battery life

2) Browsing experience

3) general speed/lag issues

4) speed of GPS lock

Thanks
[HTC One X] mdalek:
Having upgraded from a Desire HD:

1) Battery Life - A significant improvement but you will find this to be the case with most phones as the DHD battery life was especially poor.

2) Browsing experience - much faster rendering, increased screen estate helps too

3) general speed/lag issues - The phone feels much faster will less stuttering in sense.

4) speed of GPS lock - again much faster than the DHD and better GPS reception overall.

In addition to this the phone is so much lighter due to the materials in the case and the screen is a massive improvement it looks fantastic and will blow your socks off compared to the DHD.
[HTC One X] Terra1:
Two words (DO IT)

You will not look back.

Much better in every way..........
[HTC One X] danlat1415:
I too have come from the Desire HD, and I can say - I thought the Desire HD was the best phone on the market until I got my One X.

Once you get your HTC One X you will see a massive improvement with the screen quality, size, weight and overall speed & quality of it in general.

It'll be the best phone you'll own to date.

Go for it.
[HTC One X] Nubzori:
One Xs screen is just gorgeous compared to the DHD
[HTC One X] mox123:
the battery sucks compared to the dhd battery, I had much better battery on the dhd, but everything else is better on the htc one x
[HTC One X] danlat1415:
The DHD has the same battery life issues when it was first released.

this gets resolved over time with software and kernel updates.

Don't worry about the battery
[HTC One X] nikzDHD:
Biggest upgrade would be the screen that would be the most noticeable. I went from DHD > SGS2 > HOX. And the speed.

The screen is just something you need to see! With the HD resolution it's far superior than the DHD screen.

Battery life will vary but generally it ranges from being poor to being good depending on usage and signal and such.

Go for it as long as you don't mind it has no removable battery and no microSD card slot. If those 2 issues are not important to you then upgrade without a doubt.
[HTC One X] Nit3m4re:
Have to agree with everyone else. Compared to literally all other phones, unless you see the One X screen you really don't know just how good it is. I was beyond pleasantly surprised, its stunning and really should be the benchmark for all screens in future.

As for the rest, the phones fast as you would expect, my battery life is absolutely fine as I only keep data on when I know I need it, otherwise its WiFi 100% of the time pretty much. I get well over a day's worth of battery doing this with 60% being on screen time playing games or web browsing.
[HTC One X] Vadwiser:
Hello my friend,

I've had the Desire HD, changed for Sensation XE to finally end up with a One X.

1. Battery was improved but DHD battery either was much better with custom roms and kernels (I would recommend Revolution or Cyanogenmod);

2. Screen-wise it's so much more than Sensation's qHD not to mention the good old DHD. I'm flabbergasted :D

3. Nice touch, feeling and not heavy at all. In the hot summer days I would never ever want a heavy DHD in my jeans pockets again.

A real bummer it's the lack of memory card slot. Really HTC? I hate those guys for dropping that right now when the microsd cards prices went down.

Two chapters are not covered yet: GPS and audio quality (I'm a die hard lossless fan and I have the unbelievable Sennheiser ie8i headphones so if you're interested I'll keep you posted on this also).

P.S. In order to summarize my rant above: The DHD could be a WWII Panzer. Meanwhile HTC One X it's an UFO.
