[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Riptide9:
Sim Unlock???? Does it install a sim into the phone first so it can then be unlocked?? :confused: WTF
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vap3:
hi there i got a used galaxy nexus from someone and installed android me 4.1.1 (version 1.6)

now my problem is, when playing intense graphic games (GTA III or dead trigger) i notice the fps drop and rise in the game.

At first I thought the game itself was lagging due to too much happening on screen (such as more characters) but it was not the case.

The game would be silky smooth for 10 seconds then choppy fps for the next 30 seconds... rise and repeat..

it seems the cpu keeps underclocking/overclocking itself... i even tried force closing all my apps before running the game and it helped with the fps a bit but the throttling is still there....

anyone had any similar issues and knows how to fix it?

edit: forgot to add, does your phone get really hot behind the LED FLASH when gaming? Mine gets really hot even on the screen too (On that side of the phone away from the battery)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] biscuitownz:
Stock rom? custom rom?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vap3:
sorry its custom rom (android me version 1.6 july 29th)

although i briefly remember this happening on the stock rom too so I don't think its a rom issue...

hard to say i can't post in the developer section yet... so i guess here to find out if people are having issues with the stock?

stock kernel if that makes a difference
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vap3:
Wow am I the only one with these symptoms? Hot screen and lagging frame rates? Since no one is replying maybe my CPU has cooling problems? Bit there is no fan haha
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] frusso3:
Any news about your problem? I have the same problem with jelly beans stock. Playing the game agent dash when the nexus is cold is fine when it is warm slows down, like a drop performance. How did you solve it? excuse my English
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ac3theone:
Try putting the graphics for the game on low
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] crea1986:
same problem also there are many persons with this problem.I'm on stock 4.1.1
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Petrovski80:
If the CPU runs hot ( > 64 degrees Celsius), thermal throttling will kick in by reducing CPU clock speed. Works as designed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aeoveu:
You're not the only one who faces this problem - I face it on the stock ROM. The only way to alleviate this issue (not entirely, but to quite an extent) is to overclock your GPU - which means using another kernel that's clocked at 384mhz... which, for me, seems to break VPN (at least it breaks it on Air Kernel - Faux works for a while, then stalls... I don't know the nitty gritty, but that's what seems to happen - YMMV).

I had a thought: what if we enabled GPU acceleration in the developer options and then played it - do you think that'll make a difference? It does, generally speaking, make a difference to the other programs (apart from breaking some :D )
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] duqueso:
I have a Captivate a year ago and so far not had any problems, but suddenly my phone calls capabilities were gone, and i was not able to receive or make a call, but i can send and receive text messages, and the mobile networks are working from time to time.

I didn't install anything nor make something unusual with the phone, so i'm really confused!

I was using a 2.2 Darky Rom when the phone starts to fail.

After the problem begun i tried with so many different Roms, kernels and modems, but all of the methods i try where in vain.

Here's a list of the different Roms, kernels and modems that i tried:

That's a lot of work, but i wasn't able to get my phone capabilities back to normal... The most strange thing is that when i try the phone with different SIMs (from two different companies), everything works perfect! And the "faulty" SIM works without problems on a Nexus S (AOKP) and in a Galaxy Nexus (JB 4.1).

I tried another SIM from the same company of the "faulty" one and it doesn't work either.... it looks like that company is having troubles, but only with that Captivate....STRANGE! I know that two of the three companies work with the same GSM and WCDMA bands.

Please! I really don't know what else can i do.....
[Nexus 7 General] TheJanitor07:
Hi guys, I will be getting my Nexus 7 16GB tomorrow.Very excited! I will be using it mostly for gaming, web surfing, and maybe some Netflix/Movies. Just wanted to get some feedback on some of your experiences so far with the device. And your overall impression of the device. Thanks guys.
[Nexus 7 General] rhodes588:
Love it. Buy it. Enjoy it.
[Nexus 7 General] adrdev:
Quoted for great justice. I feel the same. Best tablet imo.
[Nexus 7 General] slick_rick:
Its an amazing device for the price. Well worth it. Came from a 10 inch HP Touchpad and much prefer the 7 inch form factor now.
[Nexus 7 General] rdillz:
It's a really great device. Storage is it's only weakness. The16gb version should be your only option, though it's not enough either. But I love it. Feels like it's easily worth double the price.
[Nexus 7 General] CasualStarlord:
I have only owned a capacitive tablet in the past with Android Eclair on it, that was complete balls and turned me completely off tablets.

The N7 is amazing, I can fit it in my pocket still, its powerful, the screen is crystal clear and responsive, amazing device that has restored my view of tablets in general. :cowboy:

Enjoy!
[Nexus 7 General] brando56894:
I've had my 8gb for about 12 hours and absolutely love it, I had a 16gb Asus Transformer up until yesterday and this is so much better. I agree with the previous poster regarding form factor, the Nexus is so much more comfortable to hold for long periods of time.

Jelly bean + Tegra 3 = Amazing performance.
[Nexus 7 General] CrazyPeter:
Love it, easily the best tablet I have owned.

I was unsure of the 7in formfactor, but am now convinced.

I also know 7 people that have ordered them off the back of playing with mine, and several iPad3's up for sale as a result.
[Nexus 7 General] endingcolt007:
Nexus 7 was my first step into the Tablet world and i have to say coming from a Galaxy Note, i loved every bit of it. Its build quality is just awesome which makes it feel premium in the hand. It is packing some serious specs with a quad core CPU and 12 core oGPU and the software is very brilliantly optimised for the device. So everything has been great so far, however the only downside to the tablet is: lack of storage (not expandable) and the lack of a rear facing camera. Overall it is a great device and for the price point nothing even comes close to it. However dont overrate it becasue although it gives you the bang for the buck, all the hype is causing people to expect too much from it even with such a low pricepoint.
[Nexus 7 General] TheJanitor07:
Thank you guys for all of your input. I just picked up the 16GB version from my local OfficeMax. It was their last one. And they only received 2 of them. I'm just about to open this bad boy up. Very excited!
[Nexus 7 General] Slap-Yourself :):
I was curious too, with all the threads about defects and issues. It's scared me away...... I want a tablet, and would love to have one for college.....although I'm not sure where it would fit in since I've never owned a tablet.

---------- Post added at 01:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:32 PM ----------

Let us know you're thoughts. How much did it come out to?
[Nexus 7 General] Ravynmagi:
It's a great tablet. Unfortunately I got two Nexus 7s with defective screens, so I'm not too happy at the moment.
[Nexus 7 General] YoungAceAtlanta:
this forum only makes up 0.1% of the people with Nexus 7's.. don't let these threads stop you from buying it.. all devices will have their problems.. even Apple products have issues..

But enough about that.. its many great apps in the market that makes great for college usage.. we got great note taking apps like "Evernote" "Springpad" the size is perfect to fit in any bag
[Nexus 7 General] djkinetic:
I love my 16 GB nexus 7..u said u will be mainly gaming on the tab my gripe is that many game publishers havent optimized their games for tegra 3..dark knight returns and nova 3 for example are extremely choppy in comparison to how they run on other platforms....its not really the hardware its the game devs not optimizing code...I mean what good is a 12 core GPU if its barely being utilized...I have a tfp also and its the same issue with choppiness in certain games that should absolutely not be present.
[Nexus 7 General] byron84:
I just got mine today. Ordered it July 19 "2-day shipping" LOL. Anyway device arrived intact. Screen appears to be well stuck onto device. Lol

It is beautiful. Can't find a defect anywhere so far. The only thing that sucks is I have not been able to install Whatsapp! It says my device is not compatible with this version. Everything else flawless though.
[Nexus 7 General] tameracingdriver:
Only had mine a few hours. No issues that I've noticed. Better than I thought it was going to be, a nice size to use, less bulky than iPad but much more usable than a smartphone. Much faster than the Asus TF101 and Jelly Bean is far better than Honeycomb.
[Nexus 7 General] mazzmoney:
I'm loving mine! Had it for a couple days now and it is fantastic to type on! It gets a little difficult in landscape but that's fine with me. The only annoyances as of now is where the nav bar is when you go landscape. I saw that on the Galaxy nexus in landscape the bar goes to the side with the device. On this tablet, it stays in the middle making it difficult to touch. This device isn't all that good in portrait landscape besides for watching stuff. It really made me fall in love with stock Android all over again. Shame my phone uses sense
[Nexus 7 General] TheJanitor07:
Using my nexus as I type this. And I must say this thing is amazing. Blazing fast. Beautiful display. Very comfortable to hold in the hand and has a premium feel to it. I haven't tried any gaming yet and will check to inform you guys how that goes. The only thing I have noticed is while watching the transformer movie that was preloaded on the device, it skips and lags just a bit every now and then. Other than that I have no complaints so far. I will post some more thoughts after more use. Thanks for your advice guys.
[Nexus 7 General] eakeller:
I really like my N7. I've had it for a couple weeks now and no complaints. The iPad has taken a backseat.
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
When I watched Transformers, it was not preloaded - it was streamed from the Cloud. It did pause - occasionally - for the streaming to catch up.

None of your freebies come preloaded, although you can download them.

Not sure which is more of a waste - Transformers or the ads posing as magazines.

Gaming is fantastic...
[Nexus 7 General] TheJanitor07:
Has anyone tried the dark knight rises on the N7 yet? How does it perform?
[Nexus 7 General] Darkhallway:
Flawless, and so amazing! Fun to play games, and do many things on, and thankfully no defects.
[Nexus 7 General] plambda:
Can't put it down. Keeping me up late lol
[Nexus 7 General] TheJanitor07:
Great to hear! Now to just wait for the game to download. Anyone tried Dungeon Hunter 3 yet? How is it? I'm downloading it now.
[Nexus 7 General] saadi703:
It runs mostly fine and smooth. Occasional stutter can be there in the cut scenes but nothing major.
[Nexus 7 General] rgenins:
Love it.....had it about two weeks now...quality build!
[Nexus 7 General] ACCUSED24:
Very well built. It feels solid and runs great! I love it!
[Nexus 7 General] ehidle:
I like mine so far. I am not a big fan of the "everything in the cloud" approach, especially when the Windows music manager won't upload all of my music to their servers. They really should have put a full-sized SD card slot in this thing, but other than that, I really like the user experience.
[LG Nitro HD] luqman91:
I'm fairly a noob when it comes to rooting and whatnot, however i've learned quite a bit since i've started. I rooted nexus s with no hassel. My friend the other day gave me a LG Nitro HD, the phone boots shows the LG logo then goes to the Clockworkmod touch 5.8.2. I have tried installing roms on it, it will install the rom and run then when i try to reboot, the soft keys will flash for 2 mins before showing the LG logo and going back to the Clockworkmod again. Keep in mind there is nothing on the SD card besides the signed_HO!NO!_p930 i have tried other os's too. I don't know exactly what he did to his phone. Please help me out. Thanks a bunch guys :laugh:
[LG Nitro HD] lmarranzino:
I am having the exact same issue here for two days now... I did a full back up prior to flashing yet still nothing and no matter what ROM I try I wind up back in CWM....

I am going to stop bye a shop were I know a guy that does rooting and such and take the phone to see...Will keep you posted from this side anxious to read what others may say.
[LG Nitro HD] rani9990:
Try following machzelets or mattman86's unbricking guide. Well thats if you can get into download mode.
[LG Nitro HD] lmarranzino:
I know I cannot get into download mode, Will be interested to see if Lugman can or not ... So unbricking is not an option at this point for me. Tried that yesterday also.

Lugman please post any progress sounds though we are in the same river of CWM... Why the HOX is so easy compared to this ....
[LG Nitro HD] rani9990:
Try charging it then do a battery pull then plug in the USB while holding the volume update. This should bring up a screen saying download mode. Then unbrick from there.
[LG Nitro HD] luqman91:
Yes that worked that specific method, its in download mode however my laptop says that the device driver software was not successfully installed. I dunno what to do after this.
[LG Nitro HD] lmarranzino:
You can go here:

http://www.lg.com/us/support-mobile/lg-P930#software

Download the drivers and have a blast... I dropped mine off at the shop to see if the guy can do something... He mentioned that he has seen some of this going on with CWM sticking he tried some methods and a couple different ROMS and also nothing. So I left it hoping I get the call that all is well in the AM.

Anyway GOOD LUCK ..
[LG Nitro HD] luqman91:
Thanks alot man, am gonna try all this out and see how it all works. I appreciate your help. am gonna post here what the progress is and whatnot. so check back! ;)
[LG Nitro HD] lmarranzino:
Great let us know... I have mine at the shop the guy is using the inbricking guide from here to do some magic (I hope) thought I would have the phone back today but told maybe tomorrow as it takes a long time to do the process...

Not sure I ever want to use CMW first will have to read up more on it....

Which is the best ICS based custom ROM for gaming on arc S?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aria_kh:
JJ Hybrid is smooth for gaming...
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rec71:
I'm a Temple Run nut and the only ICS ROM where it runs smooth and without accelerator issues (i.e. tilt works properly) is CM9. Anything based on stock seems to be problematic for this particular game in my experience.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] firedeimos:
With the Temple Run the problem resides on the kernel, jimbo already told us about this.

@spaagetaboutit JJ's Hybrid or Xperia Pureness would be my bet
[Huawei Ideos X6] Arya_3RDNumber:
Just simply question guys,but I confuse about this

*swap enable/using swap partition

*using ext partition over moving apps2SD normally

Is this could be better than normal/standard SDCard?

I have Transcend 16GB Class 10 using fat32+ext4 (using link2sd)

But I felt not different with my VGen Class4 8GB

Please guys if you have experience about this,,tell whats wrong n what were I missed for

Thanks a lot gan,,I must little experiment to realize

Now I understand what is "ZRAM" (sorry I really noobie :D)

about all this case,,is ZIPALIGN also complicate?
[Huawei Ideos X6] CacingKalung:
Well... actually my explanation hasn't completed yet. I was mentioned about priority, I didn't explained it. It about low memory killer configuration and also the priority of using swap. You can Google that :D.

About zipalign, it related with apk files. It intended to make it faster to load. Apk file is a compressed file. But I don't have any further knowledge regarding this. May be someone can explain it.

I have bought two generic tablets for my young children. I have a samsung gal tab2 for myself. I am new to android world due to how ever it was out of box was good enough for me. I always bought what i need out of my android products. The two purchased tablets are Curtis Klu lt7052. My children are very young hence the cheap tablets. They are actually not to bad for the dollar. Only problem i am having is out of the box there was no google play store. Which i am most comfortable around and 4 shared. I finally was able to find an gplay.apx file i could load. I was able to get the app to work, well kinda; it will launch but not download. I have not been able to download anything. Soon as i try to downloadl i have an error unfortunately, google play store has stopped. I can clear data and try again to only end up with the same result. So i am looking what i need to do to make this work. I have never successfully rooted anything matter of speaking i made a great boat anchor once with a phone! So any knowledge on what i am doing wrong please tell. The tablets are running ICS 4.0. Google Framework is 4.0 as well atleast that is what i can tell by checking the back ground app.

*background*

I can do just about anything on windows....also writing code for plc's are my fortay

is there any stable ics rom available for i9003?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Skander1998:
Install Bam kernel 14fix, it looks like you rooted from a valuepack and that's why wifi broke.

And no, all ICS roms currently used are for developers and are in no way fit as a daily driver, all of them still contain video recording issue and lag issues.

Just use custom gb roms for the time being if you want a completely stable rom.

I've been looking for a Pandora App mod that is made for easy use in a car dock. the closest i found was a concept made back in 2010 that ended up being nothing more than that:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=648144

I kind of like that idea, but an easier solution i thought of was just taking the buttons on the horizontal view and just stretching them across the screen, with each button having a rounded border and the icon being in the center of the buttons.

this way it would be easier to hit each button while in horizontal mode while keeping the app looking the same in vertical mode.

I'm sure i am not the only person who likes listening to Pandora in the car but doesn't have a fancy radio that lets you control the app through it and find it extremely hard to hit the next and thumbs up buttons.

p.s. if this is the wrong section to post please move and tell me where the right section is. Sorry, i'm a noob to these forums.

i know some are gonna come with the cool story bro line. but i really took this as a sign that i need to lighten up on material things. i was really willing to risk getting my phone and skip grabbing some form of nourishment.

Watch the movie the transcendant man. Its on netflix. The main character has a crazy idea that computers will eventually shrink to the size of blood cells and we will become human hybrids of technology. Computers have already shrunk from taking up a whole room to sitting in our pockets in a short amount of time, so his idea makes sense.
