[Asus Transformer TF700] Svashtar:
I've tried build.prop tweaks and must say i am pretty disappointed. I didn't experience any performance boost or anything else for that matter. The only thing i did notice, but i am still testing this (i have reverted back to original build.prop and am now testing) is that sometimes the device doesn't wake up from sleep anymore. I have to press power button for some 10s to reboot it. I think this could be due to deep sleep tweak in build.prop, but again, i am now waiting if with original file it will become any better.

In overall i am more and more disappointed with this device as with every day it is more and more sluggish and just too ****ing slow.

I really hoped this device could cope with normal Android operation but is even worse than my 3 years old HTC Desire phone (using ginger, ICS or even JB). Yes, i can play games which look beautiful, but using it in overall is just a disaster. All I can do right now is cold boot and hope it gets any better ( but i already see posts that it helps just from start and is getting worse over time as usual) or/and wait for JB update, but i seriously doubt it will make things any better.

Oh well.
[Asus Transformer TF700] dchawk81:
What update? Official OTA?
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
I believe that he is just "preparing" for the TF700 Jelly Bean update, based on what someone with the TF300 experienced....
[Asus Transformer TF700] dchawk81:
Oh okay. I checked for one manually and it said there are no updates available yet.
[Asus Transformer TF700] d14b0ll0s:
Yes, I've put the info here so we don't end with non-rootable units, like nooktablet, who shared his experience with the update on the TF300. Let's hope it's enough to keep "su".

As to the build.prop tweaks, it won't do any magic with performance when the chip and firmware are the bottleneck, these are numerous tweaks, for general performance, media quality, etc., it's all described in the OP, you can always Google specific values.

As to UI FPS, just as jtrosky said, it doesn't hurt to try, but it seems these are overridden by cpu*.sh files anyway that jtrosky had found before as the scripts being triggered when changing the power modes. So if you leave these scripts as is, you should be fine in normal usage (I think balanced and performance modes have no limit currently), but I left the tweak anyway just in case. In battery-saving mode, however, there is a lower limit that slows down the UI, and you can play with that if you want. Anyway, it's for UI, it won't magically make your games or graphics benchmarks run at 60 fps, expecting it would be just ridiculous.
[Asus Transformer TF700] dchawk81:
That makes sense.

And yeah it's not magic but it's the little things that add up to a nicer experience overall.
[Asus Transformer TF700] d14b0ll0s:
In my experience they have helped.

I forgot to answer the power collapse thing - I'm not sure why for some users it gives the device not waking up problem, while for others it doesn't. Anyway, if you have this problem either in power collapse mode or in tablet's sleep state in general - turn off Wi-Fi sleep (let it stay on all the time). If it doesn't kill your battery, it might be the workaround. Of course I'd certainly consider hashing/removing the lines concerning the battery from build.prop if it works fine with Wi-Fi sleep in normal mode, as this would probably save more battery life, you have to try it for yourself (on the other hand, power collapse might just disable using the WiFi by default, just do the tests on your particular device).
[Asus Transformer TF700] tmaurice:
Thanks for the explanation d14b0ll0s. That helps to understand.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Svashtar:
Now that you mention wifi sleep policy and device not turning on from sleep, i somehow actually think the problem started when i turned on the sleep policy (i never used it before). But, within same day(s) i also changed build.prop so i can't be sure.

Currently i am on original build.prop + wifi always on - still having problem.
[Asus Transformer TF700] terrapin69:
for some reason, using ROM Toolbox pro, I can't find any of these lines to edit...any ideas?
[Asus Transformer TF700] d14b0ll0s:
Change the app? ;) Use commandline "cat" and compare what you see.
[Asus Transformer TF700] CryTeknik:
Can somebody tell me if with rooting i will lose the OTA updates?
[Asus Transformer TF700] halling:
OTA updates will override the ROM you have installed but you might loose "root" if you are not preparing your devices following the guides around XDA forums.
[Asus Transformer TF700] CryTeknik:
You mean using voodoo ota ecc ecc.. well so i'm already prepared :D are there any suggestion on doing so? like uninstall busy box, unfreeze stock app, doing factory reset after ota, etc etc?
[Asus Transformer TF700] d14b0ll0s:
RootKeeper (= a copy of su) should be fine for that, you don't need anything more, although you probably should use SuperSU instead of Superuser app and make a backup of its "su" if you want to keep root under the JB when it shows up (at least that's what seems to have helped the TF300 users).

As to your original question - no, you should keep full OTA capability (there were rumours OTA updates can check for /system integrity and fail because of "su" binary being present, but I've never experienced this; anyway; deleting su is easy).
[Asus Transformer TF700] Nebucatnetzer:
Simply rerooting doesn't work?
[Asus Transformer TF700] d14b0ll0s:
Do you mean after the JB update or are you referring to sth else?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Nebucatnetzer:
After the Jelly Bean update.
[Asus Transformer TF700] d14b0ll0s:
Yes, we had a discussion on this in a few other threads a while ago. See for example what nooktablet had to say in one of the TF300 threads.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Nebucatnetzer:
Why so complicated? Simply updating and reruning the root script should work to not?
[Asus Transformer TF700] d14b0ll0s:
If you actually read the thread you'll see it didn't for some TF300 users.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Nebucatnetzer:
Sry pal was just a simple question. I didn't have time to read a 22 page thread at work.
[Asus Transformer TF700] d14b0ll0s:
That's fine, should've waited till you could then. It's summarised on the first of them, mate..
[Asus Transformer TF700] Nebucatnetzer:
Well thanks anyway.

[Asus Transformer TF700] BxMxK:
So I had reset my build.prop to TRY and install the new update and upon reconfiguring things I figured I'd look to see if anything new had been added here. I noticed something strange that didn't make sense to me. Maybe someone else knows more specifics.

Under section 3. build.prop tweaks ("/system/build.prop" file)

is this --> dalvik.vm.dexopt-flags=m=v,o=y

what exactly is m=v?

I was under the impression that there were only two things m could be

m=y --> (already have register maps created... carry on... nothing to do...)

m=null - (rebuild the register maps)

what exactly is o=y supposed to do?

v is for verification

v=a (verification enabled for all classes)

v=r (verification enabled for remote (non-bootstrap) classes)

v=n (verification disabled for all classes)

optimization variable depends upon the classes that were successfully verified

o=v --> optimize verified classes

o=n --> optimize nothing

o=a --> optimize all (classes that fail verification may still be skipped)

Playing with these seems like a really good way to force instability into the very system thats designed to self-optimize and stabilize. I could see forcing it to not verify certain classes when developing an app, but, to me it seems like a bad idea on a regular basis. Can anyone else elaborate on this?

Flag handling from source:

DexClassVerifyMode verifyMode = VERIFY_MODE_ALL;

DexOptimizerMode dexOptMode = OPTIMIZE_MODE_VERIFIED;

int dexoptFlags = 0; /* bit flags, from enum DexoptFlags */

if (dexoptFlagStr[0] != '\0') {

const char* opc;

const char* val;

opc = strstr(dexoptFlagStr, "v="); /* verification */

if (opc != NULL) {

switch (*(opc+2)) {

case 'n': verifyMode = VERIFY_MODE_NONE; break;

case 'r': verifyMode = VERIFY_MODE_REMOTE; break;

case 'a': verifyMode = VERIFY_MODE_ALL; break;

default: break;

}

}

opc = strstr(dexoptFlagStr, "o="); /* optimization */

if (opc != NULL) {

switch (*(opc+2)) {

case 'n': dexOptMode = OPTIMIZE_MODE_NONE; break;

case 'v': dexOptMode = OPTIMIZE_MODE_VERIFIED; break;

case 'a': dexOptMode = OPTIMIZE_MODE_ALL; break;

default: break;

}

}

opc = strstr(dexoptFlagStr, "m=y"); /* register map */

if (opc != NULL) {

dexoptFlags |= DEXOPT_GEN_REGISTER_MAPS;

}
[Asus Transformer TF700] d14b0ll0s:
Thanks for the useful info, I'm not sure where it came from originally, but it's been advised in various tweaks threads around, after reconsideration I believe "dalvik.vm.dexopt-flags=v=n,o=a,u=y" should be fine for most uses, I've just changed the OP ("m=" should be there only in case of setting "v" to "a", which might be a default value anyway).
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cg121792:
I was planning on flashing my phone to the Charmeleon rom. I had TWRP installed and was ready to go. I wiped the system (rom) and when I went to install the new one (which I had an external sd card, it's not showing up. My phone will not start because I wiped the stock rom. I have no idea why my the file is not being detected. The sd card is showing up as ext-sd but nothing is showing up in the folder, but when I put it in my computer it is. I did not save a backup. Someone please help me figuring this out.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cg121792:
Sorry guys, I feel stupid. I've been within TWRP for 2 hours trying to figure out what happened and of course as soon as I post this I finally stumble on the problem. I had to go into something and actually select to use the sd card. Thanks to everyone who was going to offer help.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brandontowey:
You can try a factory reset. I don't think wiping the system partition affects the ability to restore the installed ROM but it's entirely possible I'm wrong. Worth a shot.

With the file not showing on your sd card in TWRP, is it a .zip file? I think recoveries can only see .zip files and I might have read that there's an issue if a file is named xxxxzip.zip. might try renaming it on your computer and copying it back to your sd card.

You can be sure work on a ported of the GS3 rom is going on somewhere, by someone. Give the devs some time.

Even though both phones are GalxayS devices they are quite different from one another so it will take some time to get things working.

[HTC EVO 3D] G4m3rHead:
Hello good people of XDA :)

As of June 29th my EVO 3D is bangin with ICS 4.0.3 and Sense 3.6

Now as much as i like it, i would like to see more ICS and less Sense, as 3.6 brings minor changes and i feel like its a futile update that took 6 month for HTC to bring! I was expecting it to talk to me and ask, how my day went! :S

I would like to Root the phone, but there is just so much info about ROOT, MOD's, KERNEL's, H-BOOT, S-OFF and all the necessary things to know a little about before ROOTING, that i just feel confused and lost, and cant seem to find the right info for me :S

So my Q's are:

What's the most up to date ROOTING guide for the EVO 3D?

What's the point of a KERNEL, why is it flashable? Do i even need one when ROOTING?

I would like to Backup my existing "Stock Rom" is Titanium Backup the way to go ?

Is there an Official ICS ROM for the EVO 3D without Sense ? That is not tweaked or edited ? Just vanilla ?

What about the CamMod & MusicMod's for the CDMA devices ? Are there any for the GSM ones as well ? Panorama and all the goodies implemented.. :D

What should i use to flash MOD's or KERNEL's onto the phone ? PC or an APP ?

If i missed something, please be so kind and bring it to my attention! :)

[HTC EVO 3D] R0M CHEF:
Ok to root I would use revolutionary to root and s-off if it not hboot 1.5 kernels are for permorfance increase and they are flashable in recovery also there are stock ics roms in the development section and vanilla told as welll to download and also to backup stock Rom I would root and backup in a custom.recovery pm me if u need more help

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dominiquealexi:
So, I'm a new owner of an HTC Evo 4g LTE.

I'm currently running the CM9 ROM. Previous, was running Stock With Goodies (v.1.52 I believe?).

When I switched between the two, I guess GoBackup (the app I was using to backup all my stuff) didn't save my messages from the secure box. So, I had a friend send me the backup of our texts, and it's in the .hbk file format.

How can I restore texts from a .hbk file?

I haven't found any threads of the sort, so my apologies if this is a duplicate!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] krobinso2295:
Try downloading a SMS backup app from the play store. Once you have downloaded it, go to the app and go to the location of the .hbk file and try and restore it. I hope I have answered your question.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] TaintedByte:
Also, if you use Titanium for app backup it now supports backing up call logs and SMS/MMS across any ROM :)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sinfiery:
.hbk is the file format for the sense stock sms app when you use it to backup sms.

I am also having a problem with it though, as when I try to restore my sms, it says internal storage unavailable..and no app I've tried supports hbk

No Idea what to do, but I suppose lesson learned, never trust stock.

Does any one know how to make the MMS work?

I dont see a place to input the info on the straight talk activation instructions.

MMSC

MMS Proxy

MMS Port

I was only able to find the place to input the APN (att.mvno) doing this made the internet work.

So when I get a pic mail my phone shows me the text from it and tries to download it. But it fails. says Invalid MSISDN Number Received.

SMS works fine.

Sprint Touch Pro 2 TP2 Windows mobile 6.5. I have the Wall mart straight talk $15 sim card (bring your own phone) plan. I put it in the sim card slot on my Sprint TP2 and went through the steps to enable the phone to use GSM towers in the states. Calling works. But internet is only on EDGE (slower then sprints 1X) I think that is all the phone is capable of with the GSM raido it contains.

I searched the registry and found something like Http://mms.sprintmms.com changed it to http://mmsc.cingular.com and that did not work.

I dialed ##778# and hit view. there is nothing in there that looked related.

I went to start, settings, connections, connections, manage existing connections, and deleted what was there and maid a new one called Data and put att.mvno as the Access point name but there is no place to enter the mms settings in there.

I have searched google for hours and days. I give up. Some one out there has got to know the answer. Can you help?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] fatclue:
In your MMS app, go to menu>MMS options>servers>add new server. If it's greyed out you have to do a reg edit in HKLM>Software>ArcSoft>MUI and look for "enable server edit" and change the DWORD to "1" After you change that, go back to the MMS options and "add new server" with the following data:

Server - Straight Talk MMS

Gateway - 66.209.11.33

URL - http://mmsc.cingular.com

Port - 80

Connect Via - Whatever you named your connection previously.

When you're done make sure you set that as your default server. I'm doing this from memory so I may have missed a step or the reg edit key may be named differently on the Sprint TP2. BTW, the Sprint and Verizon TP2 only supports EDGE speeds on the AT&T bands. 3G is for the AWS (1700) band like T-Mobile, HTC really screwed the pooch on that one.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] travissand:
Nice thank you very much for your help. My mms works now. I cant believe I did not think to check in my mms program for the place to enter the settings.

I did have to change the registry value to a 1 to gain access to the greyed out button. It was in HKLM>Software>ArcSoft>Arcsoft MMS UA>Config>UI>

Now if I can only get the mms and the sms time to be correct. Do you know any thing about that? My friend can be sitting next to me and send me a sms that I get instantly but the incoming time on the message shows totally wrong. It was like this when I was on Sprints service also. I flashed stock 6.1 and 6.5 and neither fixed it. I have Since or Touch Flow or what ever its called turned off. Just running basic home screen Spb Pocket plus 4.1.0, Spb Phone Suite 1.3.1, Garmin, Pocket shield and some other basic programs. I have a faint memory that out of the box this was not a problem. It may have been after I flashed and installed that it started. But then why did flashing back to stock not fix it? I have never flashed anything other then stock.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] fatclue:
See, I didn't buy the Walmart ST SIM. I went straight to their website (straighttalkgsm.com) and got an AT&T SIM. I know you have the choice of T-Mobile or AT&T but I think it depends on the area code you will be using. As for the time stamp issue, that sounds more like a software bug than a carrier issue. Just for ****s and giggles, did you enter the proxy info in your connections? I know when I use the proxy info, mobilespeedtest.com reports my ISP as AT&T-Cingular, when I go without the proxy it lists my ISP as "shared block". Whatever that means. Google Maps also locates me faster when I have the proxy info entered. Of course, when I have to tether, I un-check proxy settings. BTW, you didn't hear that from me.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] travissand:
Wow checking the proxy box and putting in 66.209.11.33 does change my results from Shared IP Block to At&t. And it is 4 times faster.

I was getting a consistent download speed of only 77 Kbps and 1.1 Latency

Now I get 295 down and 2.1 Latency.

Im testing some data intensive websights now. Ok they are much faster now. All most as fast as my week reception sprint EVDO revA phone tethered to my router. The only thing sprint has over ST is that sprint does not throttle me until 30 gigs. And I have read that with the AT&T ST sim people are not getting away with much. DSL just came to my part of the jungle so I got rid of my sprint plan. I have no need to tether so much now.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] travissand:
Just for fun I put a T-mobile sim card from T-mobile in my TP2. My Edge internet was very slow. So put in the proxy that Straight talk gives there users with T-mobile sims and it was still very slow. Super slow compared to using the Att proxy with the ATT ST sim in my TP2.

One interesting thing I noticed is that this sim had many more electrical contact points on it and it automatically set up the correct MMS setting for me. In comparison the ST sim card had lass contact points and I had to enter the MMS manually my self.

This TP2 Im using this week is bone stock out of the box and it is not handling daylight savings time correctly when putting the time stamp on the sms. I bet there are many good threads about fixing this I have not yet searched.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] travissand:
Simple the settings for the Hotmail account where correct and the ones for yahoo where not.

So this was an easy fix. I click on my sms program. click menu, tools, options, click on my yahoo account, edit account setup,next,next,next, next,advanced server settings. So in here is where i had it wrong. It was on my old internet settings so I changed "network connection" to "internet" that way it will even sync my email using wifi if its on and has internet, instead of needlessly requiring to dial up over the cell data connection.

I tryed this change in the MMS settings also but my MMS wont send so I had to change it back to the cellular data connection.
