Are you running an at&t phone? The last ota took the option away. I have no idea why they would take away an option that has been a standard option for all android phones.

I had hoped that JB would bring the option for 2.4/5 bandwidth, but it doesn't. Have you tried a factory reset? I have not. Not sure if a reset will bring the option back.

There is a forum member that wrote a program to bring it back but you need to be rooted. The forum member seemed to indicate that the last ota broke the api for the 5 GHz bandwidth and that he wrote the program to put it back. At least that's what I understand of it. I would like to see a version for an unrooted phone.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] drmouse81:
I have been looking at the Barclays apps for a while (on and off). I wanted to get them working on my handset, an Atrix with CM7, and my tablet, a Momo9 clone running CM9. Even hiding root and fully unrooting (by various methods) did not help me.

So I decided to do some proper digging and downloaded dex2jar and jd-gui. After decompiling with these tools, I think I found the root detection routines, and this led me to a simple discovery. Part of the detection routine is to check the Build values (Build.FINGERPRINT and Build.TAGS).

It is my belief, therefore, that they are either checking that the ROM is a known stock firmware, or checking for known rooted ROMs (like CM). This is also suggested by the fact that some people have got it working by hiding root on rooted stock (or stock-based) ROMs.

I am posting this info purely for information to anyone who wants to take this investigation/development further. It is in NRegSplashActivity, which also contains some file existence checks.

I am not bothering to do any more with this. For myself, I feel that if the app is not secure with root (which is the reason I have been told for disallowing root) then it is inherently insecure (as rooting is trivial).

I gave up on storing music on my One X

What I do now I make a specific playlist with 100ish songs and sync them every now and then.

Otherwise Google music or amazon cloud stoarge. Google music is nice because you can store them then download them to your phone and then delete them so it doesnt kill your data plan. Amazon cloud is all online.

You download the audiogalaxy app on your phone. And you download the software on your pc. Make an account, log in on both and bam, there is all your music ready to stream directly from your computer. It's incredibly simple, and works amazing, and streams high quality. Also It's free

Edit: I should add that when I use this daily for 3-5h, I use about 2gb a month in data.

Hey guys,

I thought it might be useful to collect some benchmarks about internal memory speed, to see if the problems are consistent through all devices.

I used "A1 SD Benchmark" to check speeds. Please enable "Use longer testing" in Settings to receive more accurate results.

Use this form to post your scores: (just quote to receive the correct BBCODE)

----------------------------------------

Internal Memory:

Read:

Write:

screenshot

----------------------------------------

you can also attach scores from other parts (like RAM, sdcard, etc.) but i think internal memory is the most important. Furthermore, you might want to add a screenshot to prove that your scores aren't fake.

my speed is:

----------------------------------------

Internal Memory:

Read: 17.78 MB/s

Write: 2.94 MB/s

Transformer Prime (AndroWok 1.3 JellyBean, Performance mode):

Read: 27 MiB/s

Write: 2.76 MiB/s

Just for comparison:

Samsung Galaxy S3 (quadcore version, Stock JB):

Read: 41 MiB/s

Write: 20 Mib/s

Samsung Galaxy S2 (SlimBean 2.9):

Read: 22.34 MiB/s

Write: 2.63 Mib/s (same speed as Prime)

Asus really screwed this up, they chose to use Flash memory which reads fast but writes very slow.

Curious why the write performance on the Galaxy S2 is so much better compared to the prime even with both having the same flash write speed. Maybe there can be improvements in software. Some ROMs I used on the Prime where significantly less laggying when writing to internal storage (Team EOS f.e.).

Hey.. lets compare apples to apples...

Internal sd card read/write is 9/6 in the benchmark from the screenshot u uploaded. In galaxy note the same reading is 36.5/12.5

Internal memory in galaxy note is 40/14, which is 34/14 in the screenshot u uploaded for tf201.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Felisek:
This test is a bit confused. "Internal SD card" is in fact the microSD in my slot, while "External SD card" and "Internal memory" are the same (look at total/free size and measured speed: it's the same thing).

My TF201's internal memory test is about 34/14, as you pointed out. The test result you quoted for Galaxy Note is 37/13 - this is long testing. Short testing seems to be very inaccurate and rather random. So, we have Galaxy Note 37/13 and TF201 34/14. Very comparable results.

The weird thing is that my TF201 gives much faster read/write speeds (in particular write) than reported by Urool and Kashban above...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] smrsxn:
Yes, all benchmarks I reported are with long testing on Samsung galaxy note 10.1.

I would have tested TF201 as well.. but I don't use it so much now.. I have hooked it upto my non-smart TV to play netflix via it. That's all I use my TF201 for, and it works mostly fine for that usage.

Regarding this benchmarking... I think

internal memory = RAM on device

internal SD Card = Staorage space on Device

RAM was always fine on TF201, it's the internal storage where ASUS fitted in class 2 SD cards is the real issue with TF201.

No matter what ROM you load, a class 2 SD card is a Class 2 SD card. will not get better speed.

Galaxy note 10.1 just shows what a real fast internal storage can do.. I/O speed is as important to end user experience as CPU speed...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] whycali:
Actually as a benchmark for the speed of the transformer prime this tool is about as useful as antutu which is to say not useful at all. This test obviously only measures Sequential read and Write scores which are not in the least what causes performance issues with the transformer prime. It is in the random read and write speeds and of those primarily the random write speed where the io bottleneck lives. The only benchmark I have seen that accurately depicts this failing is Androbench.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Urool:
funny side note: mine just got picked up by UPS is getting reviewed by Asus customer Support (they told me to do so after sending them my benchmarks)

I'll report what they will come up with :)

[HTC EVO 3D] Moonbloom:
I'm trying to reset my device to stock, and for this i need the correct RUU.. But the ones i tried give the same error, saying it's the wrong RUU file.

It's a GSM EVO 3D, rooted/S-OFF'd with revolutionary and has baseband 11.77.3504.00U_11.25.3504.06_M.

I tried downloading and using this one:

RUU_SHOOTER_U_ICS_35_S_HTC_Europe_3.28.401.1_Radio_11.77.3504.00U_11.25.3504.06_M_release_262714_signed.exe

But that gives me an error.

Then i remembered i had downloaded the RUU when i got the phone to start with, when i was first rooting my phone so i could revert back if needed (had it stored away on my old HDD). Tried this:

RUU_Shooter_U_HTC_Europe_1.20.401.2_Radio_10.53.9020.00_10.13.9020.08_2M_release_203403_signed.exe

And still got the same error.

Could anyone help me?
[HTC EVO 3D] Jsparta26:
You have to flash it from your computer if you haven't tried that already. Make sure USB debugging is enabled first before attempting to run your exe.
[HTC EVO 3D] Moonbloom:
Yes i'm doing it from my computer.

Yes i have USB debugging on.

I can connect just fine using both ADB and Fastboot aswell, so not even drivers can be a problem (if they're even needed).
[HTC EVO 3D] Jsparta26:
Try relocking your boot loader.
[HTC EVO 3D] coal686:
Assuming you actually do have the right ruu.exe for your region and carrier, I can think of two issues:

1. Did you relock the bootloader as jsparta said?

2. Have you changed your cid/device id in the past? Maybe the ruu thinks the phone is a different model if you did.
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
Bingo!

According to this post it looks like his CID has been changed. Many people have had problems flashing an RUU after changing the CID and I'm not sure how to fix it since I've never needed to do that myself.

ramjet73
[HTC EVO 3D] Moonbloom:
I never knowingly changed my CID, and it's so long ago i rooted my Evo 3D that i can't even remember exactly how i did it, but i used Revolutionary for some of it (my HBOOT says "Revolutionary" at the top).

I tried to do "fastboot oem lock", and it said "Device is already locked" or something along those lines.

Is there any CID that i can just change to (with "fastboot oem writecid XXX") in order to make the RUU work?
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
Don't know much about Revolutionary since I used JuopunutBear (wire trick) to gain S-OFF. I'm also CDMA and not familar with the GSM RUU's, but someone posted this list of CID's and HTC_Y13 seems to be Norway if that helps someone with pointing you to the correct version.

Edit1: BTW, what error are you getting when you try to flash the RUU?

Edit2: This thread might be of some help to you. It looks like CID HTC_Y13 is supported by the RUU you already have, but some people have had to modify it to fix status 6 or 7 errors.

ramjet73
[HTC EVO 3D] c000ler:
Maybe try to run flash directly from bootloader. Run your RUU file, go to your temp directory and search for file named rom.zip. Change it name to PG86IMG.zip, put it in sd card. Then go to bootloader and it should ask you to flash this soft. This one is stock ics rom and it worked for me but I was on Jbear hboot:

http://www.filefactory.com/file/2hw...00U_11.25.3504.06_M_release_262714_signed.exe

It will change your bootloader to 1.53.0007

Or you can try to find and download some GB RUU and try the same as above.

Good luck!
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
Good idea.

The link in the second edit of my previous post has a download for the .zip version of the ROM from that same RUU and a PG86IMG.zip firmware file without the bootloader so he doesn't have to extract it from the RUU.exe. If he wants the bootloader that comes with that build he should be able to flash it separately since he is S-OFF.

ramjet73
[HTC EVO 3D] Moonbloom:
That RUU was the first one i tried to use, so i already have the file on my desktop at the moment.

Since i'm trying to go completely stock, i guess just flashing the rom.zip (after renaming it to PG86IMG.zip) will return me to stock ICS rom, stock (and updated) bootloader and S-ON ?
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
If you can flash the RUU successfully from the .zip file, you will need to issue the following fastboot command to set S-ON, but make 100% sure you have the stock bootloader installed or it will brick your phone if you still have Revolutionary or another unsigned custom bootloader:

fastboot oem writesecureflag 3

ramjet73
[HTC EVO 3D] c000ler:
Assuming that fastboot is saying that you are on locked bootloader, after flashing this stock ics soft you will be on stock 1.53.0007 locked bootloader. After that you must make S-ON, to do that use command:

fastboot oem writesecureflag 3

But make sure that you are 100% on stock bootloader, cause if not, you can birck your phone. Good luck!

ramjet73 was faster :)
[HTC EVO 3D] Moonbloom:
I'll try to do it tomorrow, as I'm heading to bed now, but thanks for the advice so far, I'll probably be back again ;)
[HTC EVO 3D] Brian706:
I think if you are s-off you don't need to lock the bootloader. Could he just use the PG86IMG version but alter the cid info in the android-info.txt file to match his phone's cid? It seems like it would work. I have done this with extracted portions of an ruu and altered the cid to work with VM evo v. Basically I made an hboot 1.5 PG86IMG for evo v by extracting from the sprint ruu and editing the android-info.txt to use vm cid
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
I recently discovered that you can specify multiple CID's in the android-info.txt file so the hboot .zip files in this post have all been modified to work with the Evo 3D and Evo V, in case you need to change hboots again.

ramjet73
[HTC EVO 3D] Brian706:
Thanks. I actually have a sprint 3vo and have made my own hboot and other files for myself. Just made a couple for the evo v the other day because a few people were looking for 1.5.

So how does that multiple cid work? Do you just add extra lines into the android-info.txt or separate with a comma? I'd like to learn this. It could come in handy ;) TIA!

Eta:

I misread your last post. I will download one of those and check it out. Thank you! :)

---------- Post added at 07:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:45 PM ----------

Cool. It looks just like I pictured it! Thanks for sharing.
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
There are instructions towards the end of this post from the Sensation forum. I used UltraEdit instead of Notepad++ and copied the line with the Sprint CID (SPCS_001) to a new line then modified it to the VM CID (SPCS_002). There must be an LF character that the default Notepad doesn't recognize because it opens it as one line, but WordPad and the editors show multiple lines.

Once I had the android-info.txt modified, it was easy to delete the existing version in the hboot zip files using WinZip and then copy the new version to replace it.

Xperia Arc

4.0.4/4.1.B.0.587

Bootloader Unlocked and Rooted

Guys,tried installing a custom Rom Omega on the 3rd.Nov,a couple of days ago.Followed every word the OP on how to install.Aroma popped up and made some choices and then rebooted into recovery.When phone switched back on only the SONY logo was there and it kept on repeating.Made some enquiries from members.Was advised to flash original firmware which I did.When the phone booted up,this time SONY XPERIA and kept on repeating.Been all over the place searching for a way to overcome this problem.

Came across an article on google:Recovering dead/bricked phone xperia arc -in that article there is mention of taking the generic global 4.1.B.0.587.zip file and extracting it to a .tft file and flashing it onto the device.This I am unsure of as I have never come across a .tft file.I've been unable to go into the main screen to make any changes to enable USB Debugging,Unknown Sources and MSC Mode if need be to flash again because when I tried doing it again the process aborted.Even tried to Relock bootloader so that SUS or PCCompanion would recognize the device

so that I can be able to get out of this mess I created.Unable to find a solution.Need urgent assistance.
