[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ophois:
It's not really that. it's more so because iOS prioritizes the smoothness over everything else. It puts more resources in making the device feel quick and snappy that it limits other functions, that's why Android has always felt less smooth and is why there's till a touch to sound latency of about 100ms that is yet to be fixed in Android.

in iOS, that latency is around 1-3ms which is why you see people using iPad's for making music and such. Android can't do that just yet, that latency is killer when it comes to that.

Hell, iOS saves a screenshot of an app that you switch out of for when it actually closes it that way when you open it, any app; it looks like it remembered what you were doing and was running the whole time while it loads the actual data; That's why you can't do anything at first, because it's a picture.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cas8180:
I remember reading that article that broke all that down a while ago. The android vs ios comparison.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kchannel9:
Most effective thing in increasing smoothness on my phone was the Seeder app, there's controversy over how or whether it works, but from my first hand experience on 2 ET4Gs, it sped up and smoothed out both of them incredibly. And it's free on xda ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jdsingle76:
I think it's the fact that when I hit a button, I want it to respond quickly, or "smoothly." As another poster said, to each his own. I would rather have a fast, responsive, super smooth ROM than a better phone camera which is why I love this site and applaud the devs that put so much hard work into perfecting these systems. Good food for thought comment though.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 99kids:
I bought my s2, unlocked version, 1 month ago and a week later, it started shutting off when the screen was turned off or when I put it in my bag and moved around. I searched around and found it's called sleep of death. But none of the solutions worked. My phone is on ICS 4.0.4 and it is rooted. So far, I have tried 1. the clock app trick

2. disabling sumsung apps

3. load monitor app installed with wake lock on

It still goes into deep sleep only revivable by long press on power button. What is worse is that the battery drain, which was only one to two percent becomes a massive drop from 80 to 20 percent. It only happens when the phone is left unused for a while. No intereference with phone calls and messages yet. Service and such are also unreliable in myanmar. Anyone here has any suggestions? I'm at my wits end. Will a manual update to Jellybean solve this problem?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithross39:
I don't know if you want to stay "stock rooted", but my advice is to get as far away from 4.0.4 as possible.....

You have a number of options....

If you want to stay as close to stock as possible, get Moblie Odin pro from playstore and flash a firmware...either 4.0.3, or something newer than 4.0.4....

Or.....

Go the custom route....

Download cm9, cm10 or cm10.1 and a compatible kernel....Siyah, Dorimanx or Philz....all available on XDA, and use CWM (if it came with your root) to flash the kernel (first), do your required wipes (second) and flash your chosen cusROM and associated GApps (third). Just get away from 4.0.4.....fast. And for your phones wellbeing, just DON'T wipe data while you're on the 4.0.4 kernel....the brickbug may not have happened this time....but that's not a guarantee it won't happen next time......

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 99kids:
Not to sound too ignorant (but I am an absolute novice), what happen to the old root? Will the phone become unrooted on upgrade? I don't mind rooting again. Just not too sure about it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gastonw:
You will lose root when flashing a new stock ROM.

The only way to "keep" root is by flashing a pre-rooted ROM or by flashing via Mobile Odin Pro.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithross39:
Yeah....if/when you use M.O.P to flash the firmware, make sure that the "everroot" option is ticked and root will be kept.....

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 99kids:
Thanks. I thought rooting might somehow interfere with the upgrade. Silly me.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gastonw:
Well, as I said, it'll "keep" root.

Both pre rooted ROM and M.O will root the new ROM while flashing it.

So yes, your guess was right, you'll always lose root when flashing a new ROM, these ways we mentioned gets you rooted again.

[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] ntabikha:
a sure way to unlock your fone, is upgrade/downgrade to 3.17.03, from jeff's kitchen, that will automaticaly unlock it.

then upgrade again to any version u want 2002, 2003...

about the cable, they DO make a sync/charge cable!

it has a small power jack built-IN the xda plug, so u can

hook up your powersupply as u sync it via usb...

Buy it from T-mobile store, they both work the same... and

mine was only $19 ($14 if u sweet talk a girl cashier :P)

also... t-mobile charges $70 (in usa) to replace a broken display...

u may want to ask them if they will replace an att fone.

they are both the same maker/model siemens/tmobile=HTC ;)

good luck

Actually a Google developer for android said that battery stats file shouldn't be getting wiped for the reasons people are doing it. It's purpose wasn't to affect battery life or how accurately your battery shows it's usage and drain.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] e_rene:
I am a currently Nexus 4 owner but I do miss 4Ext too.

I used to have it on my previous device a year ago (HTC Sensation).

Of course I have previously tried CWM and TWRP but they do not compare to it.

4Ext UI was very intuitive and was very easy to use. Also, 4Ext was very smooth and fast compared to CWM.

I actually liked the original theme, there was no need to use a different one.

The "Aroma Installer" was awesome, installing a ROM was like installing a desktop operating system with Options and good GUI.

I am not sure if the "Aroma Installer" is also compatible with the other recoveries.

These are just my 2 cents :P
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zepius:
1) this thread is from march

2) to get 4ext on this phone, youd need to get the dev (or someone who wants to port it for this phone) of 4ext to make it for this phone.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] d1dd1y:
A friend of mine gave me his Prime in hopes of fixing it since I own one of my own. As far as what he told me he flashed the new Energy Rom properly and didn't like it so he did a TWRP restore to his old AndroWook 1.51 setup. This caused his Recovery to start acting quirky asking him for a password, but he could fully boot into the AndroWook no problem. But he really wanted the recovery to work to go to a different rom so he started flashing different recoveries to try and get it to work eventually leading him to the 'unsuccessful encryption' error. He hit reset now he is in a twrp loop that cannot recognize any files or even the external sd card. I hooked it up to my computer and while in twrp it is recognized by adb. I am only able to get to the bootloader screen through the adb reboot-bootloader command and it is recognized there by fastboot, but when I try to use a fastboot command the device freezes. I tried flashing recoveries and roms to no avail. I also tried the unbricking methods in that thread. Adb push does work but whenever I try to install something I get failure messages due to the tablet not being able to mount anything. I honestly think its hard bricked, am I right?
