[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] hanthesolo:
Why not? Considering the hardware inside of it, you would be lucky to sell it for maybe 3/4 of the value you bought it at. You can always repurpose it into a clock, server (there's an app for that! literally), PMP (although I find that a little wasteful),gaming console, test machine (if you want to dev), security camera, "kid phone", car radio/music player, the possibilities are endless (you can tell I have a few discarded family electronics laying around while I try and find something useful to do with them :D). Just keep it, you never know when, you might find a use for it. Heck, maybe you can even donate it to a dev so they can develop for the 5.0!
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Supermaster34:
I agree. If you really don't want it then giving it to a dev team is the best thing to do unless you want to sell it

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Sparx639:
If you like developing you should stick with the galaxy player. Tgis forum seems to be pretty dang successful and active compared to a ton of other forums. Plus the bootloader is unlocked so that already makes things much easier. In short, if you like developing and testing then keep it. If you think you might not need it due to experience or the spectrum having a good forum, then sell it

[HTC One V] Paresh Kalinani:
I was wondering why is where is the RAM in One V getting used? :confused:

I have no open apps, still it has just 80-90 MB of RAM free (with just 3-4 apps like HTC Sense input running in Settings-Apps).:) While on my Xperia Mini ST15i, always 100-160MB of RAM is free (even with a big list of apps in the 'Running' tab in Settings-Applications-Manage Applications.):D

Why's One V always low in free memory when compared to Xperia Mini? :confused:
[HTC One V] clxcoltz:
Sense can be a memory hog; I switched to an ICS imitation launcher and removed sense (via root), and now I consistently have some 120+MB ram free. Haven't noticed any major lag difference between the launchers though, so you prolly shouldn't worry about it unless you play demanding games, in which case you might want something with *cough* better hardware.
[HTC One V] Paresh Kalinani:
Don't you have an overclocked Kernel?

Do you have an overclocked Kernel after rooting?
[HTC One V] clxcoltz:
No, am going to try that, but don't plan on staying on overclock for too long due to battery/heat issues. Still worth a try. I don't personally play much games, if I do I would've gone with a One S.
[HTC One V] Paresh Kalinani:
Overclock without root

Is there any way I can overclock my One V without rooting? :confused:
[HTC One V] JamesInsights:
No. However installing a different launcher seems to reduce the RAM used by sense quite a lot and things are smoother. You might also need to unlock your bootloader to install kernels that overclock your device.

*** LancherPro v/s Apex Launcher v/s HTC Sense 4.0 ***

So which one is better and faster? LauncherPro, Apex Launcher or the same HTC Sense 4.0 (if it doesn't make a big difference) ? :confused:

And also tell me if 80-90MB RAM free on One V is bad (it SHOULD be faster) or it's OK (i don't really need to look for launchers) ? :confused:
[HTC One V] clxcoltz:
The ICS core is fairly aggressive at purging old programs from the memory, so you shouldn't worry too much about memory for any single program. The memory issue will only show up when you multitask with many programs, as the old one starts getting purged and have to be reloaded when you jump to it, which shows up as lag at opening.
[HTC One V] Lloir:
Zeam launcher IMO
[HTC One V] JalmiNyondong1933:
I prefer Modaco Vanilla ICS ROM for speed and use its launcher. But Apex launcher is my 2nd fav launcher when I use other ROM.
[HTC One V] Paresh Kalinani:
Zeam isn't taking any less RAM...

Ha! :mad: Even Zeam Launcher takes 15-20MB of RAM when used. :mad: It's faster than HTC Sense 4 that takes around 36MB of RAM :) but it's not better than Apex Launcher or Laucher7.:( 'Cause each takes 15-20MB of RAM. Zeam isn't taking anything less... :(

I'll use HTC Sense.. :) till I get problems of speed... and then I'll move to Apex Launcher. :)
[HTC One V] 1ceb0x:
First of, It is better to understand how linux works in order to understand that a low memory situation is because that's how linux/android is built. Programs that tend to be used mostly by the user (such as dialer or sms app) will get cached in memory for later use. So in our case, there are many applications that get cached. Having only 80 mb free left doesn't matter anyway. If it moves without any lag, you should not worry. Android is not Windows!! You will not get warnings that you have small amount of ram available.

Secondly, this very question - the one with the ram - was told MULTIPLE MULTIPLE TIMEEEEEEEEEEEEES!!!!!! SEARCH THE THREADS BEFORE OPENING ANOTHER OP. Or you like to ask stupid questions instead of just search it in the first place?!

Third, you guys have ICS rom and still want to use a launcher that is that old, such as Launcher PRO or Zeam? I agree, those are smooth launchers but they are not designed for ICS, and LauncherPRO was dropped by the dev, no update was coming in a very long time. I have used Apex and Nova launcher with sense installed (running cached on background) and the phone was lag-free.

It really matters how you play with your phone (how you will set it up, how many apps, etc)....
[HTC One V] paarthdesai:
i don't understand why you people want to drop sense?

we paid for sense 4 coz of its fantastic ui

in logical way good graphics + best ui will eat some of your ram

sense is the best stock ui available

Samsung and Motorola users die to have sense in their phones thats why soo many sense themes are available on the store

and we people have such a fantastic ui and we r wanting a simple ics theme

lame '(

dont just say thanks hit thanks if i helped :)

[HTC One V] Paresh Kalinani:
Thank You!

Thank You!! :D

But there IS an option that'll notify us when a small amount of RAM is available...
[HTC One V] Paresh Kalinani:
I LIKE the Pure IceCreamSandwich UI as in Galaxy Nexus

Correct. But there are many people who wanna remove the Sense from their phone and like the pure Android 4 UI as in Samsung Galaxy Nexus. :)
[HTC One V] Lloir:
the UI your on about is the AOSP look which i prefer myself, which is what Cyanogenmod is based on
[HTC One V] 1ceb0x:
Because, we, modders and developers, want a non-laggy device. And for that achievement we need to get rid of sense. I didn't payed for Sense. I had sense before and I can tell you that it is not a fantastic UI at all. Ofc it looks best compared to lame samsung or LG but it is not very optimized and it is eating a lot of resources. If you payed for Sense, stick with sense. Stick it with it STOCK. When you will install an AOSP rom you will see what's the capabilities of your phone (will run much much faster). Think about it this way: Sense is a thief that comes at night and it beats you until you can't breathe. We don't want that. We need to breathe. So I'm going with a stock android 4.0 instead of Sense anytime.

Yes it is but it doesn't matter because Android is killing old apps to free memory when needed. So don't worry about low RAM memory because Android is like a janitor. When the room is full with garbage and you need space, it will throw away the old stuff in order to move around new stuff :)
[HTC One V] clxcoltz:
It's true that Samsung and Moto users will die to have Sense, but that's only because Touchwiz and Blur are even worse.

If you can't manage with that, don't flash CM9 on your device. Also, flashing CM9 is likely to remove your phone's NFC functionality.

Near Field Communication - data exchange technology, with maximum speed 848 Kb/s; 20 cm range + 2 MHz band. More here.

If install fail, you'll have crashed ROM (but recovery & download still work in best, in worst you'll need Odin for flashing stock).

[General Questions and Answers] Chewbacca-66:
Hi all,

I have an icarus bluefire g2 tablet running android 2.3.3

I am trying to get it rooted.

I've tried Gingerbreak, worked but no superuser.

I've then tried SuperOneClick v2.3.3

Checked with Root checker: the tablet was rooted, but had no su access.

This is the log from superoneclick:

I noticed it sais "not enough memory"

So i restored the tablet to factory settings, all apps removed, however, i still get this error.

Does anyone have a solution?
[LG Thrill 4G] DracoAzule:
I updated my phone to the latest version with the official LG updater. So is there a way I can root this version? If not is there a way I can flash a lower KDZ version?
[LG Thrill 4G] Markyzz:
Did you search?

And did you miss one of the many guides that cover this?

Also, tell us the version number, no one knows what the "latest" version is that you have.
[LG Thrill 4G] DracoAzule:
I just used the official updater software. I didn't flash from a KDZ so IDK.

But I got it rooted now.
[LG Thrill 4G] Kaleptik:
Haha. The official software updater DOES use KDZ.
[LG Thrill 4G] DracoAzule:
Well yea it downloads it and installs it and deletes it but you know what I mean lol
[LG Thrill 4G] DracoAzule:
But I wound up using that Megatron app to root. The app itself actually said it failed but apparently not because when I rebooted I had Super User. I even downloaded Terminal Emulator and used it to manually flash clockworkmod recovery back on. For some reason the official installer for it has never supported my phone, but the image I use works perfectly with it.
[LG Thrill 4G] Kaleptik:
I'll check into the script for that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nutzzer:
All,

Been using Nova Launcher and its backup/restore on ICS. Recently switched to JellyBean and running stock. I forgot how much of a pain to reset my widgets, apps to my liking.

To avoid doing this everytime I flash Jellybean rom, is there an easier way to backup my stock launcher setting?

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Can it not be done in Titanium Backup? I thought it could.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zepius:
it can, you just might have ui errors until it gets updated.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigteks:
It would be so great if someone knows the location of just the datafiles for the stock launcher. I want to do the same thing. No reason to use some backup app to do it. All I want to do is once I have my home screen set up the way I like, go grab the stock launcher data folder and save it on the sdcard.

Then the next time I load a new ROM all i have to do is copy that folder back and my home screen is back again.

At least that is my fantasy world...

[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] energyracing:
Does anyone have any idea if ROMS such as CM9 and MIUI will have to be made for each individual carrier in the U.S. (Sprint, AT&T, T-Mo, Verizon, etc.) or will it be a "U.S. Variant" ROM, with all carriers covered?

I know they all have a different model number;

AT&T: SGH-I747 (Canada's carriers have this with an "M" at the end)

T-Mobile: SGH-T999

Sprint: SPH-L710

Verizon: ???

But is there a real difference between them at the hardware and software level? I just think it would kinda suck for the devs to have to make multiple versions of a ROM for a phone that's basically the same device across the carriers (which I thought was part of the reason Samsung made all the carriers use the same version of the phone, instead of their own specially tweaked versions, like the Captivate/Fascinate/Vibrants).

Any info anyone has would be welcome. Thanks
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Stryker1297:
there should just be a us variant as literally the only difference between the four is the carrier radio
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] dstruct2k:
There will have to be either individual ROMs for each model, or a "model-less base ROM" with a model-specific second ZIP for radio drivers, etc.

I know that the 747 and the 999 have different radios for different wireless spectrum, so it would be impossible to have a single radio driver that would work on both devices.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Stryker1297:
actually i was wrong lol yea what he said... maybe they'll develop some aroma installers... or carrier-specific radio zips
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] dstruct2k:
I'd be interested in seeing ROMs using an Aroma installer, where it detects the model of your phone and (strongly ;)) suggests the correct choices during installation of the ROM, making it less of a "stare at this blank console screen while stuff is hopefully happening" process and more of a "here's what's happening now, step by step" process. I think it'd be cool to install a ROM the same way you install an OS on a PC; step-by-step with something decent to look at while it takes a few minutes to do the work.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] jamcar:
If it's unofficial then it will be carrier or device specific; if it's official then there could be the ROM then a zip for the radios then another zip for the gapps

So, I'm runing WIUI 2.8.2 on my Defy, and can't get that damn services.jar work right. Upon supercharging, on automatic downloading stops saying "ERROR: service.jar cannot be patched! Reason: It's already_modified :p" Then "Invalid entry ... please try again :p". This means that the services.jar that came with WIUI is already patched, and it shows that "SuperCharger ADJ Entries ARE NOT Patched In" ... so my phone is supercharged 0% ...

Any opinions?

Earlier I've tried the same V6 Supercharger (latest version) on Quarx's CM10, but I couldn't do the automatic service.jar uploading to the patching website, and the manual method ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=16635544#post16635544 ) is damn confusing, didn't know exactly what to modify and where.

[General Questions and Answers] tpr0:
Hello fellas,

I have such a big dilemma in DETAILS between the LG Optimus 2x , Google Nexus S

Details:

Value: Nexus S : ~$330 avg.

O2X: ~$260 avg surprisingly

Performance: LG optimus 2x is the winner {Tegra 2 dual core cpu} :@ even though Nvidia didn't release the damn source, => HW ACC on Cyanogenmod is fairly working (reverse engineering)

Physical specs: LG Optimus 2x also surprisingly better than the Nexus S in terms of durability and thickness, both Nexus S and the Galaxy S (i9000) gives the feeling of cheap material.

Display: LG Optimus 2x is the best. Gorilla Glass, S-LCD (used in iPhones retina), minus the Contour display that nexus S offers which bit sucks, especially fruit ninja lol (Also, there is Nexus S AMOLED, but +$60 bux away, Amoled=least life)

Cool tweak: An app that can control the navigation LEDs, e.g: Facebook notifcation is the home button, so it flashes as of the lack of Notification LED (Both phones lack)

Battery perf: Nexus S , somehow because of the single core CPU, but it should be Vice versa, Dual core uses less power at processing things less than 50% of load than a single core.

Style: Nexus S wins (opinion) not important anyways...

NFC: Nexus S, no need for it. not in my country :P

Thats against:

HDMI & External sotrage: Optimus 2x is the winner. (As both i might be using in the future, maybe not!)

Storage: LOL, 8GB NS = $300, 16GB O2X: $250 (did i hear dual core? YESS!!, WTF GOOGLE??)

Now the biggest part:

The hot damn software:

Nexus S is the 2nd phone to have the latest updates from Google. Well, Jelly-O Bean.

The LG Optimus still didn't recieve the damn ICS which was the major cons. However, its guaranteed to be release in Q3 of 2012.

My problem on the software side is, all I need is stability, mods (i know that these can be hardly combined)

O2x: GB 2.3.4

Nexus S: JB 4.1.0

IS software a major issue for regretting a $250 dual-core phone?

Sound Quality: Which is my 2nd major upgrade after performance, I should represent this as TIE, since both includes Wolfson DAC, Voodoo mod. But lack of Voodoo features in the O2X ( nvm, i only need AMP, hate external ones, sport-ish)

Others, connectivity, bluetooth etc, aren't major in difference.

As buying consideration,

Any opinion/suggestions/help are appreciated,

Thank you!

[General Questions and Answers] despotovski01:
I'll suggest you the Nexus S, although I'm pretty confident you can get a better phone than both for the same money. But from these two, the Nexus S is a winner.
