[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lord dredd:
ok

got to compare both the phones today.

all i can say that apart from a moderately better screen , the galaxy nexus is nowhere near S2, and i am saying this after trying out many things on both the handsets.

Didnt like the look and feel of Nexus , too bland ,

S2 is pretty sleek and sexy ;)

ran a live wallpaper on both and did home screen scolling , lol exynos processor kills the T whatever processor is there in nexus.

and those who are betting on a fast update , LOL the updates are pushed via sprint if i am correct so they can never hit the phone before 2 or 3 months :P

so I am done : S2 that too white for me.

thanks guyz , love the XDA community
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] crawrj:
Why not the S3? Better than both of those.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lord dredd:
good point , but somehow if i wanna go to S3 then would rather go to Note 2.

and S2 am getting for the right price as well ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Neo3D:
My GF has the Verizon Gnex with Codename(Android) JB 4.1.1 on it. I just got this Sprint E4GT and I'm running CM10 alpha 5.3.

The question comes down to hardware or software. The Gnex with CNA 4.1.1 ROM is amazing. You can do so much with it and it's rock stable. Its CPU/GPU combo aren't as fast as the E4GT but you said you're not playing games.

The 720p SAMOLED on the Gnex is really nice to surf on.

Plus, you don't have to worry about any Odin crap when flashing and updating. It's so much easier and less complicated.

Go look in the Gnex forums, they have 3-5x the developer support of this phone. I also have CNA 4.1.1 running on a Nexus S and pretty dang smooth considering how old the hardware is. You can't beat the software future-proofness of a Nexus phone.

I also used to own an HTC Evo and HTC Evo 3D. Both HTC were easier to flash than the Galaxy line. You could easily interchange kernels and ROMs without any complexity or worries about bricking your phone (on both HTC and Nexus). What is up with this Odin thing?

But, if you want better CPU/GPU, the E4GT is better, but the screen isn't as good as the Gnex 720p screen.

My ideal phone would be a 5" Nexus. C'mon Santa Google, ring in the new year and shove it up Apple's bunghole!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lord dredd:
hmmm.. now i donno i am havin second thoughts , although i justy love S2 , but one thing constantly bugging me is that i am gonna buy an older phone i guess just about a year older.

as far as hardware is concerned well , i want my phone to be super smooth , with 0 lag , i mean i would hate lag even scrolling thru the youtube videos :P

larger screen is a myth in nexus as the nav bar effectively negates the 4.6 size , may be makes it a little lesser than epic T.

the other thing that is making me think is the display quality , i know that SAmoled Plus is better any day , and Gorilla glass makes it super awesome in Epic T ,

whereas the higher resolution is the only advantage i can see in Nexus , but without the PLUS and with oleophobic coating it loses the points that it scores. ( as far as my thinking goes )
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lord dredd:
Although i have taken the plunge and got s2

but a few of my pals are in the same boat and i am not able to convince them.

Post your views about my query folks :)

what is this for ? -.-
[HTC Sensation] MrSoulSOng:
It's obviously for anyone that's wondering what apps are safe to freeze on a stock, rooted HTC Sensation.

Not sure if anyone has done this before, but it's a good idea really, especially for those that have just rooted yet still on stock, and are trying to squeeze more out of the stock ROM.
[HTC Sensation] nesoor1:
Annyone

It's indeed for everyone with an HTC sensation.

So annyone can see which stock app is safe to freeze and doesn't have to search on google and ask questions like I did :silly:
[HTC Sensation] aznprodgy:
nice, you have more patience than I do lol. I wouldve drove myself crazy going through all the apps to see which ones work/dont work. so you just froze them or completely deleted them?

good choice in launchers btw. LauncherPro+ was my favorite launcher up until they stopped updating it:(

*edit*

nvm just saw you didnt delete any of the apps listed. have you tried removing all of them yet? I might give it a shot here in a few minutes...
[HTC Sensation] nesoor1:
Frozen or Removed?

I'm still testing it for a while so I won't delete the wrong stock apps.

I will delete stock apps if I'm sure it doesn't cause any problems.

I installed Launcher pro plus as a system app.

I'm running a system over it now because launcher pro is very very light.

I will update this thread if I start removing stock apps.
[HTC Sensation] HsHTCsen:
Nice post!

I've rooted and flashed ARHD 6.6.7 on my Sensation - soon to be updated to 6.7.2 - and done a similar process of elimination with the same fate for a lot of original apps.

However, I did hav problems with the phone in a constant state of 'refresh' shown by the icon in the notification bar. I found it was related to REMOVING the 3 Friendstream entries. After recovering with Titanium Backup, I was able to just FREEZE them with no side affects so they remain in that state.

I found 'startup' entries relating to Friendstream through System Tuner but haven't played with anything but wonder if they're related to the refresh.

Anyone the wiser?? H

[HTC Sensation] HsHTCsen:
For information purposes, I flashed ARHD 6.7.0 FW3.32 and then Rom Cleaner. After 1st reboot there was only 1 Friendstream entry. I uninstalled it with Titanium Backup only to have the 'refresh' phenomenon startup again. After checking in Account & Sync settings, I noticed Facebook Sync Live Feed was ticked and constantly churning. I just unticked it and no more 'refresh'

Hope this helps.

Hello, sorry for my English.

I have a Vodafone HTC Sensation HBOOT 1.27, Radio 11.69A.3504, firm.: 3.32. Status Locked.

I entered HTC-DEV, but not unlock my Bootloader. I sent them my problem and they do not respond.

I managed to do TEMPROOT, but I can not do anything else & Juopunutbear only works with S-OFF.

Can anyone tell me how to remove my S-ON.

JuopunutBear is how you S-OFF your Sensation when you have any Hboot over 1.18. So you will have to use JoupunutBear to S-OFF your Sensation.

I believe the OP meant that HTC Dev did not work to unlock their boatloader. A lot of people have posted saying that they had problems using HTC Dev unlock.

I've installed twice, once it bootlooped (probably from alsa) and the 2nd time it made my music apps not work at all. I think it was due to running out of room on the system partition.

I'm currently reinstalling my complete system, once done I'll nandroid and try it out with just the sound mod only (no xloud, extras, etc). I'm hoping it works well because I'd like a sound mod similar to Beats on CM7 (that works on JB).

The partitions are different so you will have to use Odin to repartition and go back to CM9. I've gone back and forth a few times.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stevie13.xo:
I believe they just stay the same size (when you restore) as cm10 takes 75MB away from data and adds it's to the system

I'm not too sure though, you might want to wait for a developer`s view on your question.

[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] JaSauders:
I haven't exactly rooted 100 devices before. Most of the root utilities I've used were things like Z4Root where it's one click and done. I've recently become interested in flashing my Incredible 4G LTE. On top of that, I've already rooted my Nexus 7 using instructions like this here.

http://forums.androidcentral.com/ne...ide-factory-image-restore-your-nexus-7-a.html

I'm curious if this guide, being that it's more of a manual way to do it since it involves running several commands (I ran this from my Linux desktop to root my N7) is anything like what it would be to root the Incredible manually, or any device. I guess the only device that would be different would likely be the bootloader step (grouper?) since HTC likely did their's differently than Google with the Nexus 7, no?

Just trying to get more insight on it, as I certainly don't want to brick anything but I'd like to get them done. :good:
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] CaptainRewind:
It seems to me that we would first need a modified bootloader or /system to attempt to flash, but I doubt "fastboot erase ..." is allowed without dev unlock on the bootloader, and "fastboot flash ..." most likely needs a signed image.

Does anyone with more expertise on this topic have any input?
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] Insertnamehere12:
What those tools do is use an exploit to write the su and superuser.apk to /system and/or a modified recovery for flashing ROMS and kernels on unlocked bootloader devices.

google has properly patched those exploits as they should as we don't want a malicious app installing Root and hacking data on just anyone's phone.

Some phones with locked bootloaders have had exploits to install custom recovery and/or hacked/leaked bootloaders in order to allow us to use the phone like it was unlocked. HTC fixed this issue with their latest phones.

Their bootloaders now do not run all of the adb commands until unlocked by HTC dev, which limits us a lot. They also made it so that even if we DID manage to find a software exploit and start flashing stuff, the locked bootloader would know, via a signature check, that something was modified... and refuse to boot (Bricked Phone).

HTC Dev unlock is not true unlock either. We still can't modify the HBOOT w/o triggering it to brick the phone. An unlocked HTC bootloader limits changing the kernel to HBOOT mode only, which means u need a PC and extra steps to finish flashing any ROM.

Some brilliant Dev's managed to use RUU files to update the kernel only, but that also causes issues. If one Dev uses a newer RUU, you can't use the another Dev's older RUU to flash a kernel because the unlocked HTC Bootloader doesn't allow you to "Downgrade" firmware. This leads to headaches with people ignoring the kernel step and screaming because their phone won't boot.

The ultimate Holy grail for is is what is known as "S-OFF"

This allows full access to the HBOOT Recovery and system for all of our awesome devs to work their magic. This was obtained (long after HTCDev unlock) with the Rezound only through a HARDWARE exploit. We needed root exploit (which we had on the GB stock ROM), and to physically short out a pin on the mainboard to ground at precise times while the SOFF program ran on your PC.

We have to wait for the less popular HTCDev unlock (which HTC Did give us on the rezound with a middle finger to verizon), or for some1 to find another Exploit that would bypass the signature check of the HBOOT and give us "S-OFF".

Either will give us Root, custom recoveries, and ROMs.

I am no dev, but this is my understanding of what's happening with these devices. This is my 9th android device, 5th HTC, but I am always learning more. Dev's feel free to correct me, or expand on anything I have written here ^^
