Best thing you can do (or already did) is removing bloatware. Ringtones. Wallpapers. And things like that won't be a problem to the phone

And of course there are other things that can make the phone work faster but most of them are not recommended (or you can install them separately)

Lol

I guess we have found were the problem was :p
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tekken179:
I have my Nexus 4 now Boot loader unlocked, rooted, busybox installed etc using the Toolkit 1.3.0 with the 4.2.2 files from the official thread, however when I try to install a recovery the touch one just won't work (keep getting an android with his belly open an a red exclamation triangle symbol).

CWM installs but when I boot into CWM and then exit, it gives me a message about the default recovery reinstalling or something, I can't remember the exact message because I had several things to do between getting a chance to post this and when I tried to install it.

No worries :)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kpjimmy:
There's your problem right there lol. Waking up every 2 hours for feeding or do you take turns with your partner? :silly: I normally did it because I sleep lightly and I usually put the baby back into the crib and sleep on the comfy rocking chair. Now forward 4 yrs later, my lil one sleeps in a big ol bed but still uses a security blanket. :)

Congrats on the lil one and treasure all the 3am feedings. They grow up faster than Google releasing Nexus' :D
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tekken179:
Haha :) Aww we take turns I do one she does one etc. Unless circumstances arise! Like appointments or meetings, doctors and stuff.

Usually I'm happy enough to do whatever feeds my partner asks me to do I enjoy the feeding and changing. Most nights the baby is good and she goes over her bottle if she sleeps we let her sleep until she is ready for the bottle.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tekken179:
New question now, *sigh*

Where does CWM save backups to because I cannot find it at all =\ but it's took the data up for the backup lol.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] El Daddy:
Should be located in /data/media/clockworkmod/backup
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tekken179:
well I just booted into it again to see where it saves to /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup , clockworkmod folder isn't there for me(using root explorer)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tekken179:
Tried several options of showing hidden folders, connecting to PC and different exploring apps but no avail, rebooting the phone but the folder just won't show.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] El Daddy:
You won't be able to see /data on your computer. Use a file explorer on your phone.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tekken179:
Yea I'm using root explorer can't find the folder anywhere I've booted into recovery again to delete the backups to see if it worked OK but it never freed the space back up, note the storage doesn't add up.

There is now 3GB space wasted and I have no idea where =\
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] El Daddy:
Try looking in /mnt/shell/emulated/clockworkmod/backup
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tekken179:
Right I finally found the folder, seems deleting the backups does nothing it's all in the blobs and had to delete them through root explorer (I only made the backups to check)

But these backups aren't the same, I've never dealt with blobs before? Usually they were in the /backup folder each backup was in seperate large gb+ file
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
Sounds like you're using an old CWM build as they stopped using blobs a while ago

[HTC Sensation] slayergreg:
For some reason the last few days my sensation has been on E more so than H and I can't figure out what's wrong. I called t mobile but they were worthless. I'm currently running viper with bricked kernel and 3.33 firmware.
[HTC Sensation] onemanshow85:
this could be caused by any kind of reason. Did it happen emediatly after updating your FW? does it happen everywhere? is it only on E or does it switch between E and H? be a little more specific about your problem.

I don't know much about viper ROM's but maybe some energy conserve option is forcing it on 2G when the battery is low. in CM for example, this can be enabled manually. Check for that first.
[HTC Sensation] slayergreg:
I been on the same firmware and Rom a few days ago when it was working fine. I will try to use my data when it will say E but than the H will kick in for a few min and go back to E it's doing it in places where I had flawlessly H. I even took it to t mobile and they gave me a new SIM card. It's frusteeating because I will be listening to Pandora and all if a sudden the next song won't load because it switched to E.

hello someone could help me when I go to the backup and restore option in the backup account I can not choose my google account and says

"backing up to debug-only private cache"

any solution?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] TIN7:
same error in version 2.5.2

please any solution
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Zebaahx:
It's not an error. As the name says it's an automatic backup and restore. The moment you logged into your google account the phone contacted and restored all data stores in their servers. If you did a factory reset then installed zelly cream 2.5.2 it says when opening play store for the first time to log into a google account then a window open saying would you like to restore data (wifi passwords, settings, etc) form this google account. If you ticked the box there's no problem with your phone. By your screenshot i only saw the option you asked is not clickable. You can't choose from backup and restore and option to restore data from google as i said before it's an automated process. If you aren't sure do a factory reset then re log into your google account by opening play store at bootqq
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] TIN7:
Ok thanks for replying will try ti factory reset

http://www.droid-life.com/2013/03/1...ving-on-verizon-this-month-replacing-the-dna/

On another note, when the One was unveiled, a red version was accidentally leaked online, I wonder if the red version is bound for Verizon.
[HTC Droid DNA] zone23:
So in the next 2 weeks? Call me skeptical... to say the least. Also if that's the case then I probably wont be getting the One because I'm 6 months out for an upgrade. Guess I'll get whatever's after the One.
[HTC Droid DNA] treadwayj:
I am leaning more toward that the one will replace the dna in wal mart stores due to space constraints, but vzw, amazon, etc will probably continue to sell it
[HTC Droid DNA] Watercycle:
That is disappointing but alright at the same time.

All it has over the DNA ( most likely ) is the camera and development crowd from being global.

Oops :silly: almost forgot storage
[HTC Droid DNA] John58543:
Lmao....my luck. Just got the DNA three weeks ago.
[HTC Droid DNA] Zarboz:
Me too
[HTC Droid DNA] DROID3R:
And just like that the HTC DROID DNA IS EOL

iSheep... iSheep... Meowww that's Apple VZW GSIII
[HTC Droid DNA] WizeGuyDezignz:
I saw this coming a mile away and people hated on me like no tomorrow. The first minute we heard about the One, I said that the DNA would be dead to HTC and Verizon. They were just too similar and it was obvious the One improved on some of the cons of the DNA. It was almost like "oops, we made some mistakes on the DNA, so here is our real flagship now".

With that being said, I just got a DNA again last week and am enjoying it. But let me be straight....If the rumors are true and Verizon is getting the One or even their own variant of it, I will buy it on launch day without even thinking twice.
[HTC Droid DNA] John58543:
Must be nice to be able to afford multiple phone purchases within a month. It amazes me how people buy new phones every other month. I don't see how people don't lose tons of money on doing that...
[HTC Droid DNA] WizeGuyDezignz:
I actually made $50 to get the DNA last week lol. I traded someone my Note 2 and he gave me $50 for me to take the DNA off his hands.

When and if the One becomes available or gets announced officially, I will sell my DNA for $400-450 and either get the One for a couple hundred more off contract or use another one of my upgrades.

I usually never come out of pocket more than $100-200 to get a brand new phone. You just gotta work it and don't let your devices get too outdated. I absolutely love getting and flipping devices for a new one withing 6 months to a year. It's fun and actually doesn't really cost much. Especially compared to other hobbies which can cost much more.
[HTC Droid DNA] John58543:
I hear ya...my wife thinks I'm crazy for wanting a new phone already.
[HTC Droid DNA] zomgalama:
Oh my god. I'm just sitting here and hoping what is assumed will become true! (This stuff is always a hit or miss :( )

Pretty glad things came up and I didn't upgrade to the DNA 3 days ago, that would've hit the regrets pretty hard (not that I don't like the DNA; but I do have a preference for the One and there seems to be issue with rooting the DNA with the OTA. I was really wanting to install sense 5 on it)

I've been sitting on the verge of my upgrade, contract ending on the 22nd. Will probably pick up the 32GB variant, going to assume the phone will be good enough for me as is without root.
[HTC Droid DNA] WizeGuyDezignz:
Dude, you don't even know lol. I'm not married (yet), but my girlfriend just laughs now and calls me crazy. I have literally been through about 5 devices in the past 6 months.

I went from my S3 to a HTC 8X Windows Phone (I had to try it lol) to a DNA to a Note 2 and back to a DNA. Not to mention shortly before that I had a Droid Razr Maxx.

I'm a phone whore and I happily admit it! :D
[HTC Droid DNA] BarryH_GEG:
You guys are kind of jumping the gun. Walmart choosing not to carry both phones doesn't mean the DNA is EOL or that other resellers will follow in their footsteps. So VZW may kill the DNA in favor of the One but they haven't even officially announced their carrying the One yet. And a "Droid" branded device helps shore up a brand they've spent a ton of money building so there's room for both if they see fit.
[HTC Droid DNA] robertmoore208:
Regardless.. Eol or not, I'm not bailing on the DNA, knowing that a newer better phone cycles out all the time... No real reason at the moment.. I'll wait to see what's up next

DROID DNA 5
[HTC Droid DNA] John58543:
Yea most definitely. However, if I could go back three weeks I would have waited for this. I had the PUK lock issue today for first time...all Verizon store did is reissue me new SIM again...maybe if the issue happens again (which it will) they will give me a One...

This just in, pigs are flying.
[HTC Droid DNA] Bigandrewgold:
Same, I think I'm gonna wait and see if the x phone lives up to all the hype it had.
[HTC Droid DNA] John58543:
If DNA OTA gets root none of this matters to me. The ONE is a good phone, but I like the DNA form factor and 5" screen.
[HTC Droid DNA] ocman40:
vzw will not be getting the ONE anytime soon IMO.
[HTC Droid DNA] jayochs:
Wize weren't you the guy who got the note 2 and was all, it's so much better blah blah blah hahaha...whyd you come back? I just got another DNA too lol

[HTC Droid DNA] lazarus2297:
I really would like more concrete evidence than a picture like this from Wal-Mart... but that said if the ONE does come to Verizon I will also do my best to sell my DNA and get the ONE.. unless it's only a red version then I will probably pass..
[HTC Droid DNA] renzo.olivares:
In the end besides the new design I don't believe the ONE will provide anything that the dna can't when it recieves official sense 5 or when ports have more time to develop
[HTC Droid DNA] robertmoore208:
+1

droid dna 5
[HTC Droid DNA] broons:
Hmmm girlfriend is due for an upgrade she's been holding off. If its out relatively soon looks like this will be her new phone. I'm happy with my DNA. It has some flaws but its been solid and I love the 5 inch screen.
[HTC Droid DNA] bigsnack:
I thought the CPU in the One was suppose to a little faster, while being a bit more power efficient with the Adreno 600. Also, doesn't the One offer a slightly larger battery? Does the DNA offer a microsd slot or is that also not there like on the One?
[HTC Droid DNA] renzo.olivares:
Snapdragon 600 in real life performance you shouldn't be able to notice a difference......gpu is still the same...cpu is what has been updated and even then not a large enough update to stand it apart from the DNA, I believe it does offer a slightly larger battery, but no microsd
[HTC Droid DNA] WizeGuyDezignz:
Yes sir, that was me. :D

I really do still think the Note 2 is better in many ways. But in the end I prefer the Sense look and 1080p screen. :thumbup:
[HTC Droid DNA] jayochs:
hahahah i wish i could find every single post of you *****ing about the DNA and how superior the Note 2 was just to shove it back in your face :laugh: lol

also joel, yeah it'll be the same but a bit smaller...i like the aluminum build quality, and the front speakers. dunno about the camera yet, i honestly haven't looked up pics..

btw, MAKE YOUR CAMERA MOD APK DEODEX PLZ :p i'm waiting lol
[HTC Droid DNA] Lykarsis:
I love the DNA but if at all possible, I'm going to switch over to the one as soon as It comes to Verizon. Mostly because of the whole unibody metal thing. The one and only thing I like about the iPhone is that you can squeeze that thing all you like and you don't get a single creak. Sounds like the One is the answer to my problems. I just hope it's able to be rooted. I love sense 5 but hate all the Verizon bloatware im sure will come with it.
[HTC Droid DNA] Zarboz:
This is so true Joel
[HTC Droid DNA] g.davis17:
The snapdragon 600 clocked at the same frequency of the S4 Pro is supposed to be 40% faster, and the One is clocked at 1.7Ghz so I think you should be able to tell a difference in speed of the device.
[HTC Droid DNA] MsEvyLynch:
Some guy posted this on another thread but ill post it here to if you want to see pictures of One vs DNA http://pocketnow.com/2013/03/13/htc-one-camera-vs-droid-dna-camera#!prettyPhoto
[HTC Droid DNA] bsSkunkApe:
The benchmarks for the 600 seem to set it apart a bit, but who knows if you will ACTUALLY be able to tell. All I can say is wait a few more months for when the Snapdragon 800 devices come out and are a step above all of this. I'll bet there'll be another HTC flagship out toward the end of the year regardless. They HAVE to compete.

[HTC Droid DNA] drumz0rz:
No Wireless charging would be a dealbreaker for me. I'm obsessed with my Nexus orb. It's a perfect desk stand / charger and I never have to fuss with that stupid USB cover (which looks ugly ripped off). I really don't get why they decided to not include wireless charging.
[HTC Droid DNA] MsEvyLynch:
I fixed the link right before you posted.
[HTC Droid DNA] Ndaoud360:
Think about it. Well me if I do sell my DNA to get the One and I get the right price for my DNA (which is possible) it will be like i'm just exchanging my phone for another.

BUT if I don't then when a future Verizon HTC phone comes in november like always, no way I could sell DNA for what ever the retail price will be for that phone but the One possibly could sell for that if I were to get the future one.

And all this is due to keeping my unlimited.
[HTC Droid DNA] tsupersonic:
Yep, the HTC One is my choice of device right now for the next generation of phones. I'll be waiting for Google IO, and hopefully the next Nexus device is available on Verizon. My upgrade is in October, but I need to buy my phone outright so I can keep the unlimited data
[HTC Droid DNA] g.davis17:
HTC said that this will be the only "One" this year.... Can we get an HTC "Two" or whatever they will call it lol
[HTC Droid DNA] jayochs:
cool, the One camera looks pretty good! I never liked the DNA camera..not nearly as good as the Rezound was (how?!?!) or the S3. but it's not BAD or anything.
[HTC Droid DNA] TechSavvy2:
I dunno, my DNA camera is definitely better than my S3. Its not even comparable. I just want more in depth images from the One to be able to distinguish if this "UltraPixel" is worth it
[HTC Droid DNA] Bigandrewgold:
The DNA camera is definitely better than the s3 and the rezound.
[HTC Droid DNA] Serinety:
Wonder if replacement devices will be the htc one now. That's how I got the dna, had an issue with the gs3 and the tech was like "do u want dna instead?"
[HTC Droid DNA] John58543:
I doubt it seriously. They are probably trying to get rid of all their excess inventory on the DNA.
[HTC Droid DNA] intruda119:
Did this surprise anyone?
[HTC Droid DNA] WizeGuyDezignz:
Not me. You have to realize that smartphones are often designed and developed 9-12 months before they even hit retail shelves. With the DNA, HTC wanted to put next year's specs (which is really this year's) into a smartphone and they had a special deal with Verizon to make it happen.

As soon as they felt the need to make a flagship superphone because of their market share and financial situation, it was well after the DNA was already baked and ready to ship, etc. Right when I heard about the One, I knew the DNA was already going to be the red headed step child. It will be forgotten about very soon unfortunately.
[HTC Droid DNA] UrGuardian999:
Hey, no joke. When the first slide Droid came out, I went through 3 refurbs and told them that it was completely unacceptable due to me being on call for my job. I aggressively insisted they upgrade it to the Droid X which came out about half a year later and they said they would for an extra $50... I had the Droid X for 2 1/2 yrs til I just got the DNA. Still hate Verizon regardless and have tried jumping ship multiple times [couldn't because family plan]

Btw, with this design it looks like an iPhone.... not sure if I can wrap my head around owning an Android phone that looks like a POS iPhone. Just me?
[HTC Droid DNA] ilogik:
Dunno, I don't think anything will be released in the next 6 months that will be that much more revolutionary than the DNA. I sold my GS3 for the DNA and am happy with it. What could come out that has that much better of a screen or CPU?
[HTC Droid DNA] DevonL:
Realistically if the One has a nice fit and finish and I like it I'll probably give the DNA to my mother and trade up for it using her upgrade. We'll see.
[HTC Droid DNA] John58543:
Forgot about is a little strong. It will be the cheaper One....I bet Verizon offers it for $99. Phone probably has too much inventory to just stop selling at this point.

[HTC Droid DNA] bobdude5:
Are you sure ?? My s3 and iPhone 5 take way better picks than the DNA. My DNAs camera shots are awful. What settings are you using? Mine come out grainy like no other and the colors are so flat. I genuinily think I have a defective unit
[HTC Droid DNA] jayochs:
Um do any of you claiming the s3 camera being worse than the DNA own an s3 or are you just making things up?

The DNA produces soft images and too much noise on black or brown surfaces, especially in low light. The flash is not bright enough, and the HTC software doesn't allow flash when focusing in low light.

The s3 produces sharper images, especially at low light, and with much better quality and less compression.

The s3 camera is the better camera in the end, and I can tell you this seeing as I own two s3s and a DNA and have done numerous comparison shots.

[HTC Droid DNA] bluesamg:
I don't know what to say. I like the DNA and its "Droid" them and ringtones.

The HTC One will be an upgrade with the software, hardware, storage, camera.

But I like the 5 inch better than 4.7

The S4 is fast enough (atleast for me, and it doesn't slow down)

I can care less about the Sense version though.

The Camera is good on the DNA, maybe better on the ONE?

32GB seems good.

Out of all this only downside is the screen size:(

Hopefully this may be an insurance replacement.
[HTC Droid DNA] Bigandrewgold:
Well if your using the stock camera app obviously they look crappy. But if you use a half decent 3rd party camera or the modded stock camera than the DNA beats the s3.
[HTC Droid DNA] WizeGuyDezignz:
Which camera apps do you recommend?
[HTC Droid DNA] lazarus2297:
If your rooted I would suggest checking out lypota's HTC camera mod.. it's in one of the dev threads.. gives many more options in the camera like setting the quality level higher which will lower the jpeg compression level.. I use it normally but it doesnt work on newts sense 5 port.. :(
[HTC Droid DNA] chadderbox:
Does lypota's camera app do uncompressed pics or just lower compression? Getting my DNA tmrw and can't wait to play with it as much as I love my S3, I'm dying for something new and different
[HTC Droid DNA] Jaggar345:
In confused on what's going on here with the HTC one and verizon. Is a variant of it coming to verizon or not? And if something like it does come are they going to discontinue the dna, because the devices will be so similar? If this does happen will we still continue to receive updates because I am not going through another 2 years with a phone that is going to be left far behind everyone else like my continuum was.
[HTC Droid DNA] jayochs:
guys, the SENSOR in the camera is worse in this than the S3, and that's just hardware. i'm running the modded sense camera which turns compression off and you can turn auto enhance off. yeah, it's better, but the stock S3 still takes better pictures than this does.

look at any picture in medium light with black or brown in it....you'll see fuzziness and blotching all over the black and the brown because for some reason it can't handle certain light it seems..whereas with the S3, it will come out clear and look better.

i've had both phones for months and i've taken NUMEROUS comparison shots. the S3 takes better shots, period.

look at the blacks in this:

http://i.imgur.com/MTz8ph.jpg

now look at this comparison of the S3 to the DNA in lower light with flash on. you can clearly see the blur and blotching on the DNA camera that just ISN'T there on the S3:

[HTC Droid DNA] Bigandrewgold:
I'm not sure what setting you have checked somewhere on your DNA, but that pic looks horrible compared to what my DNA produces. Only time I ever have a pic look that bad is when it is very dark. But under normal lighting pics shouldn't look like that.
