[General Questions and Answers] Nigeldg:
Yeah, I don't use Sense for the reason that I find it sluggish. I've used my Mum's desire S now and again purely to see how good Sense is and whether or not to flash it, and it's always just seemed too slow for me, and since your hardware is of a newer generation I doubt my phone would cope well. However, with CM9 it genuinely is fast and smooth. The best performance improvement I've noticed over CM7/GB is in the browser, where I find the smoothness and the zooming comparable with an SGS3.

The One S is far ahead of the Sensation, you're right (actually it scores higher quadrant scores than a Sensation as well I think) but the only problem I'd have with a One S is simply that I don't know whether or not it's necessary to pay extra when you can pick up a Sensation relatively cheaply. In day-to-day performance I don't know whether or not you'll notice it tbh.

Perhaps an SGS2 would be better then, or maybe as suggested above a GNex.
[General Questions and Answers] olyloh6696:
Yeah I agree with you. It's a shame OEMs don't provide software updates to the phones though, even though they are far capable. The One S is likely to receive Jellybean... But what about Key Lime Pie in the future?

That's where my problem lies. In 2 years, support will be dead. Also, I know you can use custom ROMs etc, but they are never perfect, as you need the official kernel source from HTC so the ROM cam be stable.

Well, I don't like to be behind in technology. When I compare my Desire S to say, a SGS2, it makes me weep seeing how much faster the SGS is. That's why my question, will hardware improve much from quad core? For me, dual core to quad core is a much smaller jump, than single to dual.

Yeah, thanks for the suggestion, I was thinking of the SGS2, for me the browser is far from what the SGS2 offers. There's a good video on YouTube,

Desire S vs SGS2 web browsing... Just watch the difference and you will kno what I mean!

I'm looking forward to see what Intel will do for mobile platforms now that they have joined in, they are new to mobile development but it seems like they are working on there hyper threading tech on there socs, sending 2 commands per core like there desktop PC chips (1 core processing the same amount of information that two cores would do).

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] EliteGeek91:
Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask, or whatnot. Just so many darn sub-categories..

Anyways, I've had a HTC Inspire 4G before, thought I would love an iPhone 4s, well I jailbroke it and such, and still missed Android. So today I purchased another Inspire 4G on eBay.

It'll arrive Saturday, and I wanna root it, and flash it with a custom ROM.

Is CM7 or CM9 better? I was curious about CM9, since my Inspire is only single-core with 512mb of RAM. Isn't that borderline?

Alright my main question is: I want free Wi-Fi tethering on my Android, someone told me when I flash it to CM7, I can enable Wi-Fi tethering, and AT&T won't ever catch it. Is that true? Cuz I had an app on my iPhone from Cydia, that allowed me to tether Wi-Fi for my laptop, and it worked amazing. I really want that on this Android phone, but also want a program that works well, and that won't get caught easily by AT&T (I guess it needs it's own VPN, instead of using AT&T's).

Thanks for any and all help, and sorry again if I posted in the wrong section. -EG91

The main thing you need is for your computer to-be-tethered...you need an addon for your browser that Allows you to change your agent settings. Super user agent For firefox works great
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] EliteGeek91:
Gotcha..

Hmm, so it won't be like the real Wi-Fi hotspot then? Cuz on my iPhone, I could press the Wi-Fi tether button, then find the wireless signal on any phone or laptop, and connect to it easily.

I was hoping I could do something like that with my Android..

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] faze2:
So a little history, I flashed my vibrant from Bionix v1.3.1 (fishmanmod) to ICS and started to have a lot of troubles with random restarts and battery issues. Prior to ICS everything was perfect. I've tried so many different versions of ICS and all of them have resulted in random shut downs. The most recent one I tried was Slim ICS. After having such bad luck with ICS roms I decided to go back to Bionix. However my phone now cannot be recognized by my computer which was weird because it did when I flashed it back to stock to install ICS cleanly. I tried various different drivers, uninstalled, reinstalled kies, almost everything I thought of. So then I was like okay, I'll just go back to a nandroid backup of Bionix. Stupid idea, should have read up more on that as it softbricked my phone. Now I'm stuck with a phone that stays on the Vibrant screen. I can get it into download mode with holding vol+ and power but that is no use because windows keeps saying it cannot recognize my device. I can't get it to recovery mode either to flash any roms I have on the phone. It might be a hardware issue because my mothers vibrant gets detected with the same drivers but just a couple of days ago I flashed my phone back to stock with odin which really confuses me. Does anyone have any ideas I could do? Is there a way to get into recovery mode to flash different roms? Is there a manual way of installing the drivers or surefire way of knowing if the vibrant has hardware issues?

Also when I flashed back to stock with odin it did take a good hour of installing and reinstalling drivers for my computer to recognize it in download mode. I've tried 3 different cables, one by samsung and the other two are third party. All these cables work on my mother's vibrant. I've also tried a different computer as well, no luck.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iTz KeeFy:
Try deleting ALL USB drivers from your PC and plug in the phone. It should automatically search and download drivers. If that doesn't work then its most likely something to do with the USB cable. I recently soft bricked my vibrant too and my USB would not work at all but it worked fine on a friends phone(weird). So I bought a new one from T-Mobile themselves and it worked! I was really close to believing I had a bad USB port on my phone,if a new cable doesn't work that could be the issue for you. There are a few places online that will replace your USB port on the phone for around 40 bucks, a new USB cable from T-Mobile will cost around $15.

PS: You can search ADB reboot recovery but this will not work unless you can connect to the PC. I personally would buy a new cable from T-Mobile just to know if its a bad USB port on your phone.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] faze2:
Yeah I've read in another post about how someone bought a replacement cable from T-Mobile which fixed the problem. I find it weird how the stock samsung cable does not work yet the T-Mobile cable did. What makes the 15 dollar T-Mobile cable better? I'll definitely give it a shot though.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iTz KeeFy:
I'm not sure what makes it better to be honest, it's just one of those things where their cables work better. It is most definitely more durable than the stock cable that came with my phone. If you have a problem with Tmobile's USB cable not working then you most likely have a bad port on your phone(happens more than you might think). I feel like a new cable will solve your problem tho, let us know if it works!

Running ICS Passion
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] faze2:
So I bought the T-Mobile universal data cable in store for 12.99 and turns out it did not work. That's okay, they told me I could return in within 30 days to get a full refund. Now my only hope is to send it to someone who could repair it.

The phone can go into download mode, so hopefully once this usb port gets fixed I can finally get into odin. Thanks iTz KeeFy for the suggestion to try a different cable.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iTz KeeFy:
Your welcome, too bad it didn't work. Atleast you know its a bad USB port now. I know www.mobiletechvideos.com is a trusted place to send your vibrant. I'm not positive they fix USB ports but I'm pretty sure they do. I would check there first, good luck!

I'm pretty sure GB supports multicore processors, just doesn't utilize them as well as ICS does.
[Motorola Droid 3] AragornPE:
I'm no dev, but I can "feel" the difference between Droid 2 and 3 (I have both). Droid 3 is snappier than Droid 2, and the main difference between both is the dual core processor. Droid 3 should be slower, since it has a bigger resolution, but it's not. So I assume it's using both cores
