I used to have the galaxy tab 2 7.0. Had a kernel for it and everything. Unfortunately it was by far the slowest device i had ever used. Slower than my S2 single core HTC incredible and the graphics performance was pretty bad too. CM helped by fixing the graphics drivers and eliminating TW bloat, but it didnt help enough to make me happy with it.

But if you enjoy the Tab2 then go ahead and keep it and enjoy it. Don't let these N7 fanboys phase you :D

They don't. Lol. I am an Android fanboy. I had them both in front of me so I made the most informed choice anyone can who would be considering that choice and my needs and options . Flagship is only flagship in this world for about 8 weeks lol

I wanted to like the Nexus better. I am not a flashaholic so getting hot of the press Updates to "beta test" is not important. Ill wait for stability. 4.2 is not a ROM I want to run right now given the BT issues,random reboots,reported batterylife issues. Sometimes not being in the forefront of these things is a good thing. 4.2.1 is supposed to deal with the BRain issue. We'll set.

[Nexus 7 General] 7harper:
If your a Sammy fan and wanted to get a better screen,the Tab 7.7 which has the Super AMOLED Plus screen is the upgrade over your Tab 2.There are plenty of good ROM's out for them now. They aren't cheap and you'll pay for the better screen costing more then twice the cost of the Nexus 7. The N7 is by far the best bang for the buck and just ordered one today!

[Sprint LG Optimus G] dcartwright:
After 12 days with my Optimus G, I took it back to Sprint and cancelled my service. It was shame. I LOVED the phone. Unfortunately, Sprint's service is just terrible where I live. They over-nighted an airrave to me so I could have reliable voice service at home, but often when I was out and about in my neighborhood, the service was spotty. I could rarely get a 4G signal. When I did, it was a little slower than the HSPA+ signal on my AT&T phone. When I had their 3G, it was 1/10th the speed. I stayed with AT&T and upgraded to the HTC One X Plus. LTE speeds are 2-3 times the HSPA+ speeds I was getting. I'm very happy with the service and because I'm a long time customer AT&T gave me the HOX+ for $150 and free activation when the phone is $199 on their website. The HOX+ was the only phone AT&T has with specs that are close to the Optimus G, but the Optimus G is faster, has a better screen, and has a better UI than Sense. The only real improvement on the HOX+ is the 64gb of storage. One of the things that I really miss from the Optimus is the Quick Memo app. It doesn't appear to be in standalone development anymore. You can't buy it on play. I've found some older versions that don't have the screen shot integration. I was wondering if anyone would be willing to give me the apk for it. I've tried three times to download a zip file of system apps from the AT&T Optimus G, but the download starts very slow and then gives me a network timeout after a few minutes.

Did you just not know about when you got the X+?

But I had a similar experience with an Evo Shift.

My family all has AT&T and then my mom got a work phone on Sprint.

She had pretty weak cell reception at home and couldn't get a data connection on Sprint, while AT&T had pretty good coverage.

[Sprint LG Optimus G] dcartwright:
I get the "app not installed" error when I try to install quick memo. Damn. :(

I was iffy on the Sprint Optimus G because of its 32 GB of storage limit. I was coming from a 64 GB Iphone. There's no way I could live with less than 64 gb of storage without reliable, unlimited data. Sprint's unlimited data is why I was willing to downgrade on storage. The HOX+ is a good phone. I just liked the Optimus G a little better. If AT&T would give me unlimited 4G data, I'd have probably gone with the Optimus G here, too.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bleached45:
Just a suggestion if you are rooted, try copying the apk to the system/app directory (or data/app I guess), set permissions to the same as everything else.

Reboot.

It probably won't work, but you could try it.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] dcartwright:
It didn't work, but thanks for the suggestion anyway. I may look into installing the LG UI (or at least the launcher) at some point. I've read a bit about others doing that and some widgets or apps needing it to run.

I would like manually create settings for when my CPU is overclocked and underclocked and I was hoping to find some help with this. I want my phone to underclock to roughly 800mhz - 900mhz when the screen is off, battery is bellow 20% and when the phone is above a certain temperature and overclocked to 1.1ghz at all other times. How would I go about doing this? I am new to tasker and there doesn't seem to be an option for CPU controll.

Ubuntu like Android is based on Linux so that isn't a surprise that it runs on the Nexus. Linux OS have been dual booted on windows computers for a long time so seeing Android dual-booted on Windows phones isn‘t a surprise either. Also those are dual booted not really replacing your android OS. The pic your talking about is a Ubuntu mobile OS so it should actually replace stock android like a custom rom does. I will also add that iOS is closed source software so you risk legal action doing that. The thread you linked to is closed.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Ruben Martinez:
Hello all,

I used to have CM10 installed, but I decided to give SlimBean a shot on my AT&T Skyrocket. I downloaded the 3.1 ROM (Slim-i727-3.1.0-OFFICIAL), and flashed it successfully. However, since install, I've been getting notifications from UpdateMe about upgrading to 3.1. Sure enough, I checked the 'About' section and it claims I'm running version 2.6 of the ROM, and version 4.1.2 of Android. Most annoyingly, I tried downloading the supposed 3.1 update from UpdateMe, only to get an error every time I try to download it (though I have used it to download other add-ons flawlessly). Any ideas what could be happening?

EDIT: Just for clarification, I did a full wipe/cache-clearing prior to installing the new ROM.

Thank you,

That's the problem, though: I HAVE the newest version (as far as I can find) downloaded and flashed. I'm looking at it right here, file name is Slim-i727-3.1.0-OFFICIAL.zip. However, upon flashing it, my phone says 2.6. And I did read the FAQ, that's the minor part of the question I asked, I just thought I should include it for detail.

That said, let me repeat: Why would a downloaded 3.1 version of SlimBean give me 2.6?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Ruben Martinez:
Okay, I solved the problem by reflashing (again), and it's finally 3.1. Not sure why it wasn't working before. Anyway, thanks for the [lack of] help!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] bps119:
Sounds to me like you may have flashed the ota update fix which, if flashed after 3.1, would revert your build.prop to the earlier version. If that's the case, there's no need. The updater app issue was corrected with 3.1 and you would have known that if you read the whole thread. In fact, this exact problem was already discussed in the slim thread. Reflashing the 3.1 build is the only fix.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teemo32:
All,

I have drafted this post hoping after reading that someone will have some concrete resolve to improving the performance of my tablet.

Background: I purchased two Asus TF300T's for my wife and I at Christmas looking to improving our mobility around the home and externally without lagging a lap top. I read plenty of reviews over a period of 1-2 years and settled on the Asus. Since Christmas we have had one firmware update. We are on Android version 4.1.1, Build# 10.4.2.18.

Current: We are highly disappointed with its ability to swiftly move through websites. I have taken off java script then rechecked it and the performance is very inconsistent at best to include on my home wifi. Downloading pdf files from some sights is nearly impossible. I can't find how to down load apps and other documents to my SD Card. The tablet memory is constantly at least 50% occupied with stuff i am not aware of. the best thing i can use this for is my email and a few other simple apps. No crashes just extremely poor performance. If I want to view an item on You tube, man it takes forever or it never loads.

At this point I am somewhat in remorse beliving I would have been better off buying cheap laptops.

Can anyone of experience please assist with helping me maximize the tablets and see the power and functionality I have read about?

I am not a software developer and have read about rooting yet I am not clear on how and what to do yet i do understands it voids your warranty.

thanks for your assistance,

Frustrated Asus TF300 users
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wetbiker7:
To unlock your tablets potential, I highly recommend rooting and installing a stock based or custom ROM. I would also install a custom kernel. It will void your warranty but in my opinion, it was well worth it. Rooting only voids the software, not the hardware.

Here is the video I watched in order to learn how to unlock and flash a recovery using Fastboot. This video shows you how to flash CWM recovery. Many have had issues with CWM, including me, so I flashed TWRP recovery instead. I just substituted the TWRP info in place of CWM recovery. The second link I provide will be for TWRP. Also, this video shows you how to root your tablet. No sense in doing that if you are going to flash a rooted ROM. There are quite a few rooted stock based and custom ROMs available to us. I would go ahead and read up on them and choose one before starting the process.

Video:

http://www.teamw.in/project/twrp2/97

This is a link to the ROM I'm running.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1971806

It also has a modified kernel in the 3rd post down under extras which will allow the tablet to be overclocked to 1.7GHz.. The only issue with it is GPS. It has to be reactivated after each boot if you need to use it. As I mentioned above, there are quite a few ROMs available to us. I would just read through and choose the one that's right for you.

I also highly recommend reading this thread:

same poor performance

Hi, i too feel my Tf300 is very poorly performing. Glitches, stutters and apps closing down quite often. This is on 4.1.1 in UK and I have made no changes other than android updates.

I would love to have this thing run more smoothly like my GNex which is only dual core but cant see it happening.

Most of all i want to get a controller working to play Dead Trigger and ShadowGun.

Most tutorials for controllers say must be rooted. I would therefore like to root the TF300.

I have looked at doing it a few time but have seen warnings about not rooting if you have a particular version.

Is there a list or guide where i may look up the specifics of my TF300 and then know which root method to use for the best?

I dont have my TF300 handy but know its on 4.1.1 at minute and is a UK tablet.
