[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] FattySparks:
If it were me, I'd spend the extra $300 on a computer with and i5 processor (or comparable) and the other upgraded specs that go along with it. I've found that spending a little more on a desktop usually means that it won't become obsolete in a year. With a decent $600-$700 computer, you'll get a good 4-6 years, with very little upgrades before it feels obsolete.

I bought my computer for 600 and spent about $150 on a pretty decent graphics card, and it's going on 5 years. I can still play new games at pretty decent detail, as well as edit videos (non-HD) without any issues.

If I got an HD camera, I'd consider getting a new computer, just to help speed up the process. However, I'm still very happy with it.

I would lean more toward this one: Dell i5 Desktop The extra 300 would be worth it, just in longevity. From my experiences, the computers that are less than 400, are usually close to obsolete out of the box. Plus they're cheaper (built, not price).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] DeadlyBreakdown:
Hey everyone,

I have everything working on this ROM the way i want except for audio quality. I've heard of/have bluetooth audio issues, but i have issues on my headphones and speakerphone alike while playing music. Has anyone else had this issue or have any remedies? This issue is driving me crazy as I use my music on my phone for about 8 hours a day... When playing music through the phone speaker, extreme distortion starts at a little less than half way up; meanwhile all volume levels on speaker give low end sound.

Music is stored on a 32gb sd card. S3, speaker is not blown, just for some background information. Any help would be greatly appreciated. :good:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] JoeFCaputo113:
How come you're on that version. New one is out.

Update with photosphere, pie feature, and more coming very soon as well.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] DeadlyBreakdown:
I was going for the stable version.. I'll try to do it. Best way just to wipe clean then flash? I'll look up how to keep all my saved game data.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] JoeFCaputo113:
Titanium Backup all of your app data. And yes I always recommend a fresh install (wipe cache, wipe dalvick, factory reset).

This is VERY stable, been my daily driver since the day it dropped!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] DeadlyBreakdown:
Awesome. I'll flash it tonight. I already used titanium yesterday so i'll be good to go tonight. I couldn't find on the forums, but did they fix the bluetooth audio issues going on in 4.2.1? Thanks for all your help man.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] JoeFCaputo113:
Here ya go brah.

**MAKE SURE YOU DOWNLOAD D2SPR NOTTTTTTTTT D2MTR!!!**

Like I said, there's an update coming VERY soon with some nice new goodies in it. And I don't use bluetooth so I wouldn't know. But you can go ahead and hop on that thread and ask the devs! WiFi tether works amazing. I used it last night and amazed my stupid Apple loving friend lol.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] DeadlyBreakdown:
Haha, yeah I also grabbed D2SPR last night. thanks brov. :highfive:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] DeadlyBreakdown:
Just so you know, the new one came out a day or two ago. I'm using that. Fixed my sound issues. Haven't tried bluetooth audio to my car yet. Heads up - many more options. Interface, pie control, etc.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kevinzone:
I'm using the pitchblack 1.3 rom android 4.2.2. It has cm 10 kernel and the rom is based off of cm10 nightly

So the kernel has min 700mhz and max 1.2ghz with 384 gpu oc. with on demand governer

With This, it is generally smooth but i want it smoother since i'm a lag freak. Like half the occasion when bringing down the notification bar it will lag. And most of the time the frames wont be totally smooth. It'll be semi choppy. And also most of the time when i unlock my phone and go to app drawer and scroll a bit, That will lag too.

So generally how do i make my phone faster?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] standa75:
I would suggest to increase read ahead, or try different kernel/Rom.it is also about running processes and services I guess.:thumbup:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kevinzone:
how can i increase read ahead?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] namtombout:
Use trickster mod. Also try different kernel governors. Wheatley or a number of other governors should keep you nice and snappy.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kevinzone:
I have tried android revolution hd ,But the thing is, it's too stock. If thatmakes sense, it doesnt have any customizability like changing quick settings and other features cyanogenmod has. Thats why i use pitch black, because also the black helps with the battery life.

any other roms?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] standa75:
If you prefer a lot of customization than you can try JBSourcery, or Cyber GR MOD ROM.:good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] username8611:
Tweak your governor to more readily hit your max CPU frequency. The tradeoff is battery life.

this is how my cpu use looks

the 367mhz step is usually about 30% but using the dock at night keeps it there and out of deep sleep. i had to tweak the interactive governor quite a bit to get it to use the two highest steps about equally but it's super smooth and i really havent noticed too much of a battery impact. I consistently get around 2.5 - 3hrs screen time but thats on wifi.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] b1337:
Try stock rom
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kevinzone:
That is too much customization in jb sourcery

,

I generally want to have the customization of cyanogen mod, Mainly the notification quick settings panel and powermenu . Any other good roms? That are extremely fast and have these tweaks?

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] troysyx:
After installing googles 4.2.2 update through CWM, my bootloader remained lock, but i lost root and have no custom recovery. I used Mskip's root tool (which is absolutely amazing) to root it in the beginning. i'm wondering if i go through the root process again if that will be fine. its a one touch do all (unlock bootloader, root, install busybox, install recovery, etc). what i'm curious about, is if the bootloader is already unlocked, will the toolkit trying to unlock it again do anything bad?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pak-stars:
unlocking the bootloader will not effect the phone in any way...just unlock bootloader and re root.i also did update then re rooted

[General Questions and Answers] BushMaester:
I've been wanting to make my LG Optimus Chic E720 run a little smoother; today I tackled it. After rooting with z4root, I installed Root Explorer, and proceeded to move many system apps to my SD card, and deleted a few as well.. After moving ome.something app (im sorry I can't even see the name now), I started receiving force close messages for my messaging and phone apps. I managed to reboot, move everything back, and reboot again. Still doing it, so I did a factory reset.. Still doing it, so I did a hard reset.. and its still doing it.

Now, I no longer even have a file manager to install apks. Browser, messaging, phone, camera and android market don't work.. adb shell comes back with Device not found even though the phone is detected and pcsync app runs. I've been at this for like 5-6 hours reading and trying to fix it. I can't put a new rom on, because I can't install terminal emulator or use adb shell. I'm so frustrated, I feel sick to my stomach.. and I can't afford a new phone. Please help me?

This is what I was going to try installing to fix the problem, when I found out adb shell does not detect my phone. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1046135#13185924

I tried Android Injector to install Root Explorer again, no good. Also tried PdaNetA4013 to install usb drivers and it can't detect the phone either. I can still enable removable storage, and put files on, but then I can't access them on the phone.
[General Questions and Answers] BushMaester:
Well, looks to be solved. After getting the phone to be properly detected (seemed to randomly work on the 100th time enabling/disabling mass storage), I followed the instructions in the link below. I used a different version of firmware than offered on the page. v10c_00.kdz downloaded from an xda developers application, original lg firmware its called. Can't believe its working again, I didn't get any responses but thanks to people like the ones who contribute here, my phone is saved.

I can't post a link but its lg-phones dot org --- how to flash lg optimus chic

Edit: Seems my phone has gone back to being network locked. Bummer.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jessewalby:
I don't know why I did it.. I was trying to remove all my pictures files, and everything so I kept going down a list of things to format and I formatted my system. I do not have anything on my SD so I cannot flash anything. Now when I plug my phone into my computer it will not recognize the devuce. I would really like to find a way to get a ROM on here somehow and have this phone working again.

---------- Post added at 05:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:49 PM ----------

And unless things have changed since last time I've tried, you won't be able to use your WiFi in monitor mode. So backtrack will be pretty much useless but everything else works.

This app will guide you through the installation of backtrack on your phone.

Hello,

I switched on the Xperia Z of Samsung Galaxy S3 and miss on the first day of the great features such as S3:

- Stay Smart (facial recognition),

- Smart Alert (vibration when touching the smartphone if missed calls or messages are available),

- Silent, if you turn the device,

- Direct contact call when the phone to your ear

- The lockscreen I find horrible. You do not see missed calls or messages when you do not exactly click on the status bar and can otherwise not set shortcuts ...

Is there any third party apps that have this functionality?

I could only find for the Smartstay an alternative app.

Otherwise, the Xperia is really great, but Sony has really in software extreme catching up ...

Thanks for your help.

hey guys,

today i have installed miniCM10-4-0-2-mimmi and 2-6-32-60-nAa-04 Kernel on my X10 mini pro phone.

After 2 Hours i finished to flash it and it works.

But i have got 2 big issues, wich i don't understand and i need to be fixed.

I searched for them, but haden't found them, so i hope you can help me.

First Problem: if i try to activate wifi the phone says: "activating wifi" but it don't do anything... nothing happens....

Second Problem: if i use the hardeware-keyboard and press the "L"-Key (but in lowercase...) the current program will be minimized/closed...

I'm using a german-keyboard-layout ....

EDIT: the whole keyboard dosn't work correct... the blue special-keys dont work etc... do you know how to fix it?

i hope you can help me fixing this problems... I realy like your miniCM and would like to use it, but i need all keys and the wifi to work correct...

I hope you understand my problems (i know my english is not the best...)

Thanks for your help.

There aren't any fixes for these problems yet, they come from nAa's 04 kernel. Try and flash the ROM on nAa's JB 03 kernel (the old one) andd wait until he fixes the bugs.

Hi,

thanks for your answer.

Can you answer two more questions of mine?

First: What do you think, how long will it last until the bugs are fixed?

Seconds: if the kernel is wirtten only for the x10miniPro, and many user use it, why don't they have these bugs? I don't think i'm the only one, who hast thes problems, am i? And why does nAa publishs a kernel with such big problems ?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] fix-this!:
So in nov I signed up with tmobile and got the note and a gs3 for my wife. I plan on selling the note and getting the s4 in march. I call tmobile to pay it off and they tell me I have to pay both phones off? This isn't what the agent told me when I signed up. He knew I swap phones about every 6 months. So my question is why can't I pay the note off separate? My wife never upgrades her phone plus it would lower my bill per month down. Tmobile is ending the subsidiaries anyways so I don't see what the issue is? The reason I went gsm is to be able to put any phone on the carrier as I like, such as international versions.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] culua:
Talk to a different rep. Cause that rep is an asshole
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] fix-this!:
Nope just spoke to customer relations and was told it cannot be done until tmobile ends the subsidiaries in a few months. No way in hell I'm paying $700+ for both phones. Basically the rep I signed up with flat out lied to me. If I would of known this I would of just bought my note full retail. Really ticked off right now.

$720 for both phones + $600 or so for the s4 is just too much for me.

3rd damn carrier that seems to lure their customers in with lies. Who would refuse me paying off a phone today? Basically I was told their systems cannot allow only one device to be payed off until may when they change their policies. This is really going to screw over a lot of people. I just don't get it.

Can anyone explain tmobiles logic in this? I'm baffled.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ttabbal:
I've heard that since it was Even More Plus. The credit line is for everything combined, you can't separate them out. No idea if that's the truth, but they have been consistent in telling me that. If you were lied to, that really sucks and, IMO, they should try to do something for you. No idea what, but they could offer something.

Not much help, but at least confirming what they are telling you now anyway.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] fix-this!:
Yeah I have it in writing too from the original kiosk rep. I'm really ticked as I talk to this guy all the time when I'm at the mall. Tmobile is investigating what he told me and I've notified his manger. This really screws anyone who wants to get another phone anytime before may. I just don't understand the logic. Why would they care if I decide to pay the device off? Now I'm screwed if I wanted to get the s4 in a few weeks unless I add a 3rd line.

Now I can see why so many go prepaid. To avoid all of the carrier BS. This is worse then what I dealt with on both sprint and Verizon.

There has to be a loophole for this. Any ideas guys?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] awrnsmn:
It does make sense that the credit extended is put into one loan. I'm sure it makes it easier on the accounting for them....... BUT...... If that guy told you something different, I would go straight to him and have him help you get this sorted out immediately. He's the one that gave you misinformation, I would make him spend time working to correct it also.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Poke_N_PDA:
yeah, this really makes no sense to me why they would require this just because the phone accounts are linked? Just to be sure though, I'm going to make sure I buy my phone and my wife's phone separately.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] fix-this!:
Im told its becuase both phones were purchased together but that was becuase thats the day i switched from verizon to tmobile. The rep knew i switch devices often and told me it wouldnt be an issue. I got an email from the manager that they are investigating. If any of you bought the phones together id check on this. Im glad they are ending the pay per month on the phones BS. From now on ill pay full price.
