[HTC Sensation] aceleo:
so ya, recently i have rooted and S offed with JP method

i wanted sense 4.0 badly so i flashed Ordroid 9.0.0

i was pretty good and everything works ok

but after 1 or 2 days of use, it seriously becomes damn SLOW and i have to clear up the RAM often to make everything smoother.

everything loads slow, Google Chrome is slow, app drawer comes up sow......like u get the point

then i tried CM9 RC2

honestly this was the best thing that ever happened to my HTC Sensation :good:

it was fast and it is still fast after a month of use.....almost everything works perfectly...... it soooo sooo much better.

im in love with it

BUT

one thing which i really hate is its camera

like the pictures which it takes is horrible ! even worse then my old Nokia N96 !

the camera software is bad(since most probably it was made for the galaxy nexus)

so ya the pictures lighting is bad, even if i take a picture in bright sunlight....also it cant take any wide or high resolution pics

also it cant take full 1080P videos

so can anyone tell how i can get that epic camera back to my CM9, like flashing the original camera app or smthn like that

i did do sm research and i found out that HTCs original camera app wont work in cm9 since it was only made for sense

so is there any CM9 like fast Sense 4.0 ROM out there ? is OpenSensation any better ? also i dont want sense 3.6 since its old

i just need a better HQ camera with CM9, Beats sound and HTCs unique features

and ya also WiFi tether if possible

thanks

I'm using elegancia with sense 3.6 and it's working great. If you want sense 4 only, I heard that venom is good.
[HTC Sensation] amm009uk:
Your answer lies in Hypernonsense 3.3. Feels like CM, runs as smooth and camera all is still HTC:)

These are my [size = Alpha Centauri]preferences[/size = Alpha Centauri], so don't take them for granted. What has worked for me doesn't have to do the job for you, it's best to test all ROMs and find out which one suited you best.

Sense 3.6:

InsertCoin worked best for me, because of its outstanding battery life, smoothness, absence of lags, fcs and bugs

Sense 4:

I can't tell, because I dislike it

CM9:

HyperSensation worked best for me, but I can't say I liked it...it was best out of CM9

AOSP:

Virtuous Inquisition, because of the same reasons as InsertCoin

Hope I helped

ARHD is the Best ROM
[HTC Sensation] sssurfer:
If u Love the SENSE Camera n like the smoothness and polished Finish of SENSE 4.0 AND want hell lot of Tweakss..... thn go for the ViperS ROM. U wont be disappointed. :good:

Link is in my signature.
[HTC Sensation] kaesekopf:
I've ready enjoyed using android revolution hd. It's sense 3.6, but runs really well!
[HTC Sensation] gol_n_dal:
Just a quick note r.e. Virtuous Inquisition. It's AOSP look and feel BUT is still based on a Sense ROM, i.e. it's been de-sensed as much as possible and still has Rosie, the last time I used it it still had the HTC Camera. This is unlike CM9 which is a true AOSP ROM from the ground up.
[HTC Sensation] sarkar_007:
Install ViperS, you wont be disappointed. And once you use a Sense 4 ROM you wont go back to Sense 3.6.
[HTC Sensation] aceleo:
ya i just installed Virtuos.... its not true AOSP, it still has a Sense in it.... but u can flash the HQ camera mod and the beats sound

also its no way near as smooth and good as CM9

i also checked out OpenSensation, eventhough the camera is better its no way near to the original cam.

So is there any way of gettin the camera good in CM9(a true AOSP ROM) and possibly beats ?
[HTC Sensation] JLG7:
try using SmartDroidBerserk Mode its an awesome rom, sense roms are a bit sluggish.
[HTC Sensation] gol_n_dal:
It's some time since I've used CM, I liked it a lot, then again the camera didn't bother me too much. VI was a good substitute and with a decent kernel was pretty slick. Pure AOSP "should" in general be quicker than Sense based ROMs as it doesn't have the same overhead.

You'll NEVER get beats on CM as it's Sense dependant. CM has its own equaliser which by reputation is better than beats anyway.

r.e. a decent camera in CM have a browse in the CM development thread. I'm sure there will be some comments about it. I'm afraid I can't comment as it's some time since I was on CM, mind you CM10 will be on my phone later today for a look see.
[HTC Sensation] Frozt:
Hey, checkout ARHD(Android revolution XE /w beats Audio) love this ROM check it out. Its fully loaded with everything you would want/need. Fast an stable.

And if you wanna change the status bar just look at sense 3.6 themes or 4.0 in the app store. My only complaint is I hate the settings menu visual layout its sense.
[HTC Sensation] InfinityFTW:
Try TouchCream 2.0! Haha, best ROM imo

If you want a good Sense 4 rom, I highly suggest the Team Venom ViperS Rom, I'm using it now, and it's the sh*t! Tons of customizations, tweaks, and OTA updates.
[HTC Sensation] Whiplash87:
InsertCoin Evolution v2.2. Runs very smoothly!
[HTC Sensation] Frozt:
I have to say I spoke to soon ARHD is great but Viper is my cup of Tea.
[HTC Sensation] FeatherM:
I tried viper now, sense keeps crashing, what am I missing here?

Do I need to change radios or something?

I have s-off and hboot 1.27.000
[HTC Sensation] aceleo:
ya me too, i went to Viper and its too damn slow !!!

nothing compared to CM9 or Virtuous Inquisition.
[HTC Sensation] realsis:
Is best to try several different roms for yourself and see what YOU like. It's a personal choice. What might be great for someone else might not be right for you. So experiment and see which ROM suits your style and needs! That's the fun part! I was using viper myself, however I had so much freezing on new version I switched to lightning sense 4, new Rom, is been fast smooth and stable. So see its all up to you and your needs. I highly recommend experimenting with several different roms until you find one that meets your needs :)

It is very likely you could pay your operator to unlock it. About sites, I never used one so I won't recommend anything.

If you aren't in LG8 or LG6 firmwares you can still use Voodoo Unlock app from supercurio website: project-voodoo.org

I'm on xLite 1.4.0 XXLH1. I got my phone from Phones4U (UK) and I'm on Orange (UK) when I tried to sim unlock it gives me an error code when I try use x#XXXX# commands. Now when I swap it for my simcard with T-Mobile (UK) I can make calls etc but in my STATUS in ABOUT PHONE it doesn't display my phone number, it just displays 00000000000 and on the Orange it does display the number.

So really it is unlocked but not fully unlocked? I know you can't really get half and half but it seems like it in this case. I haven't tried the manual way of unlocking but I will at one point, just want advice.

Edit: Just noticed that my firmware is higher than most. Will degrade and try app again but will still check back and follow advice from you all!

Try changing kernel to one with cwm like siyah(ICS) or speed mod(GB) then create a backup from recovery? If you do change kernel remember to wipe cache and dalvik cache!

Where can i find these kernels, and how can i wipe the cache and dalvik cache?

In recover it should say 'wipe cache partition' and then go to advanced and select wipe cache partition.

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boyoboyo:
Hey all,

I never really tried playing video on the nook, but I just tried playing an MP4 and it gives me a "Sorry, this video cannot be played" error.

I've looked into it and it seems that the nook actually supports MP4 playback.

Running on Mirage 7.2.

Also the information VLC Player (on my PC) gives for the mp4 file:

Stream 0

---------

Type: Video

Codec: H264 - MPEG-4 AVC (part 10) (avc1)

Resolution: 640x480

Frame rate: 29.970023

Decoded format: Planar 4:2:0 YUV

Stream 1

---------

Type: Audio

Codec: MPEF AAC Audio (mp4a)

Channels: Stereo

Sample rate: 48000 Hz

I appreciate any effort to sort this one out.

:)
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meteorrock:
I have had nothing but problems using VLC player on my rooted nook. It has to have soft-decoding enabled for lots of movie files to play on it. This is using the VLC player through the playstore.

One player on the playstore I have had better luck with is called MX player or the Moboplayer, both of those will play the native .mp4 video formats for me.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Also you might have a corrupted video file if it is not playing on your computer with the correct video codecs downloaded for it. Might want to try to re-download that one video you are having problems with. Check that file in a different video player on your computer and see if it plays. If it doesn't, then you either do not have the correct video codecs downloaded onto your computer for it or it is a corrupted file. On windows OS I have to download a KLite video codec for .mp4 files to play. VLC should play that file by default though on the computer.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Try using the program "handbrake" to encode your video files for playback on the nook to keep from having to soft decode it. Soft decoding takes up lots of processing power on the processor on your nook color. There are guides to show you how to encode video files for your nook color using handbrake here. http://www.androidtablets.net/forum...using-handbrake-convert-video-nook-color.html
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boyoboyo:
Thanks for the quick response.

I only used my Windows VLC Player to determine the codecs information. What I'm trying to do here is to run the mp4 in the native CM7.2 player.

I will try to re-encode the file. Maybe something with the audio stream there...

Will update! Thanks!
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boyoboyo:
OK it works with the directions what you gave

I tried to give it a go alone with Handbrake. Didn't work.

Then I followed the steps in the link you provided and it plays in the default player, including H/W decoding.

Thanks a bunch!
[Nexus 7 General] SnoMan88:
I thought would start this post since I didn't see one where people could some of there favorite video apps that don't come stock on the N7. Her is my list:

1. Netflix - pretty good app and greatest availability of streaming movies you will find from a monthly service.

2. Xfinity Player: Nice updates to the UI for 7 inch tablets and really good for catching up on old episodes of Spartacus.

3. Crunchyroll: The premiere app for watching animes that are subbed and best of all they have a free option that works over Wi-Fi. Doesn't work over Bluetooth tethering, but ICS built in Wi-Fi tethering is just fine if you don't mind the ads.

4. HomeDia: A nice free app that allows you to stream videos on your home network. I paired mine up with plex media server since you have to pay for tversity and it has worked well. If it doesn't play a video just use a third video player app like rockplayer.

5. Dailymotion: To be honest the only reason I use this app is to catch up with subbed anime episodes of OnePiece, outside of that nothing really else for me.

The good thing about these apps are they are free to download and numbers 1, 2, and 5 have apps for the Xbox 360. Well those are mine, so what are yours?
[Nexus 7 General] SoHaunted:
All I ever use is netflix for streaming and mx or dice player for playing movies via stickmount.

[Nexus 7 General] jnehama:
If you like to watch current TV DROID TV Primetime actually works very well on the N7. There are quite a few free shows but for @$9 for three months you can get shows like Game of Thrones, Mad Men, Greys Anatomy, and dozens of others. I have used it for over a year on my DROID X and it sizes up really well to the 7inch for factor.
[Nexus 7 General] animatechnica:
Check out veetle for movies
[Nexus 7 General] krelvinaz:
Are you doing this on a N7?

I had problems with it on my N7 in that I couldn't get it to lower/hide the info when the video was playing. Unless I am missing something .... On my phone it worked just fine.

UPDATE

Now if this isn't stupid on my part..... if you touch the video when it is playing, a icon shows on the bottom left to make it Full Screen... thought I had tried everything...
[Nexus 7 General] SnoMan88:
Thanks I didnt know that Crackle would work with the N7 unless I installed flash. So far it looks pretty good, I just dont like how the UI doesn't work that well in portrait mode. Hey that's what updates are for.

When I checked out veetle in the play store for some reason it said it was not compatible with the N7. Still looks pretty good though.

Any body know how hard it is to change the battery display?

I preferred the display in BO 1.1 and was wondering if I can change just that piece easily?
[LG Revolution] dadecamp:
If you have Rom Toolbox you can use the icon changer. There are a few different battery icons to choose from. I've used some of them on the Revolution. Just be sure to use the ones that have 1 percent increments, not 10 or 20.
[LG Revolution] arcane spade:
any way to do it with just taking the file from another ROM and inserting into the current? similar to changing boot animations?
[LG Revolution] I.M.famous XMAN:
No. You have to edit the framework.apk. if you can get a copy of the framework.apk and the systemui.apk, then you can use uot kitchen. Just search xda and Google to find all the info you need
[LG Revolution] JohnnyAn:
I was thinking about doing this already. Give me a few days until I have the time and I'll post a flashable zip so you can flash in the old battery icons. Do you have a preference for center or right aligned clock?

Awesome, no I don't. I noticed some people prefer the right align but I couldn't care less. I just really liked the accurate battery circle display from BO1.1 because it was easier for me to read and I liked the way it looked.

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Greg O:
Got my wife a TF-300 for her birthday back in May and just bought an LG HBS-700 stereo bluetooth headset for her from Amazon.com last week. Opened the headsets box, read the quick instructions and noted all I had to do was turn them on for the initial pairing. Turned BT on in the settings of the TF-300, turned on the headset, and it paired & connected fine. Tried music player & streaming TuneIn radio. All worked great. All audio apps seem to work perfectly. She used it all day Tuesday.

Then came Wednesday.

Woke up the tablet, turned on the headphones, started the streaming audio, and nothing. Checked BT connections and it showed connected. Adjusting the volume shows the BT icon, but no audio out through BT at all. Turn BT off and it plays through the speaker or external jack just fine. Turn on BT and it's gone again.

Tried everything I could think of. Un-paired and re-paired the headset several times. No help. Did a manual re-pairing, still no good. Tried the headset with 2 different cell phones and they work great. Turned WiFi off and still couldn't get any audio out through BT. Even tried playing local music and still no go.

I read the earlier models of the Transformers had numerous BT problems, but I thought they were all fixed in the 300.

Any suggestions at all?
