[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shimp208:
You are correct the Razr HD is very close in specs to the US version of my Galaxy S3 apart from the 2GB or RAM, the 2GB of RAM can help performance but won't cause a massive difference in performance. Additionally the Verizon bloat will chew up resources and depending on what other applications you have running the background can take away resources from the emulator. In general carrier bloatware will slow down the entire device making it seem sluggish. Since you mentioned you were looking to get a cheaper Android tablet to play emulated games on I would definitely check out the Nexus 7, it has good gaming performance for emulated games and gaming performance in general. And like I said previously some games will always just lag or have jumps in the audio and can be annoying unfortunately that part of the problem with playing emulated games.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shimp208:
Thank you for the compliment and that is defiantly a good choice, my only piece of advice when buying devices refurbished is ask them if you can try the exact device your gonna buy before you pay for it. I have known several people who have bought refurbished electronics from stores where the guarantee said the device was fully working but when they got home it either didn't power on or something else didn't function properly.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Millni6:
Yup for sure, they have a 15 day return period, so for whatever reason it does not work, I'll return it. I also saw an Amazon review where they were talking about n64/ps1 roms seems to me like the guy got them to work without any lag issues.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] Marton:
Hi All.

I have a problem that from what I see, I'm the only one who has it.

Everything was fine on PPC2002 and I upgraded today to WM2003, after that I get sound skipping/clipping on many games/apps.

For example when I record something with "Notes" everything's fine but if I use VITO's SoundExplorer I get lots of skipping on the recorded audio.

On games with music (Clickgamer's Knight Lite / ZioSoft's Metalion / Astraware's GTS Racing and many, many more) it clips a lot.

It is very annoying and it never happened on PPC2002 (used the Spanish and the O2 English ROM from LumpiStefan's kitchen for PPC2002 and for WM2003 I used A.30.09 ENG Siemens).

I tried disabling all my Today's plugins (leaving Today totally empty) and renaming the Startup folder in order to check if it was an app in there slowing down the sound, but nothing, it stays the same.

Does anyone have a clue or will I need to downgrade to PPC2002?

I love PPC2002 but the phone losts the signal so frecuently that it renders the phone useless. For example I go to the subways and get No Signal, that's OK but when I get out of it, it doesn't get back unless I turn off the radio or reset the phone, that's annoying like hell. It should check for signal say once per minute, I lose plenty of calls because of that...

So I read that with GB-Soft Tweak (http://www.gb-soft.cz) if I disable "GPRS Always On" I will get signal everytime but unfortunately it doesn't work on PPC2002 so I had to upgrade.

That's it, that's my story :)

Hope anyone can help me.

Kind regards,

Marton

P.S.: LumpiStefan, if you're reading this: I also got the BootScreen inverted and upside down on WM2003 (just like on PPC2002 Spanish) so I think it is a problem with the Kitchen... maybe you should check it... Cheers!
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] k_dima:
try GB-SOFT GPRS TWEAK, i have the same problem, that dissapeared

after i set "high priority for audio media"

http://www.gb-soft.cz/XDAII/product_gprs_tweak_en.htm
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] Marton:
Wow!!! Thanks!

Now it doesn't click anymore but it does turn off the sound and makes a fade-in every 5~10 seconds.

I don't know what's better: skipping or stopping and fading in :)

Anyway I notice that it makes fade-in everywhere, for example when I'm checking the ring tones it is set as Vibrate and Ring and the ringtones fade in, just like as if it was on "Increasing ring". That was the first thing I noticed when I upgraded to WM2003... Is there a way to disable that annoying fade-in?

Thanks for the speedy and helpful reply k_dima!
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] k_dima:
i use AT&T A30.09 about 5 month, and decided to change it to O2 WM2003, that you can find in the Rom Kitchen.

After this upgrade , fade effect dissapeared.

I reccomend you to use O2 ROM , becouse it's a very stable and fast , without annoying sound effects.

Before O2 ROM i use AT&T and T-Mobile 4.0.16.

T-Mobile ROM is too slow and not stable. When you installed more than 10 programms, you can notice it, but Radio Stack from T-Mobile Rom i left as is, becouse i have the best voice quality with T-Mobile Radio Stack.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] TheLastSidekick:
I can't be sure if it's me but sometimes I get really bad sound quality on phone calls after flashing any audio mod. Can anyone confirm or deny this? Thanks.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Misterjunky:
There is only one audio mod which has no effect on phone calls for me, its "Awesome Beats".

All the others I tried or those which are built into custom roms with the except of Beats distorts

the phone call incoming voice unless I turn the audio way down making it way too quiet.

None of the audio mods have any effect on the out-going voice.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] LuigiBull23:
It's actually 2 for me. Whether it's been merged into the ROM or installed as a 3rd party app, Awesome Beats and Noozxoide has had no affect on call quality. That just goes to show how different each device really is lol
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Misterjunky:
re: audio

Strange, I thought I tested em all, but I have never heard of Noozxoide until I read your post.

I will have to give it a try, our devices are really not that different...

It's just that I never heard of Noozxoide til now.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] LuigiBull23:
It's pretty good, not the BEST but it definitely makes a difference.

Every device, even the same model, can very well handle ROMs, kernels, mods, scripts, binaries, etc.. differently and that's what I was referring to.

You know this though.

HTC One has been awesome so far. Minor gripes are.... phone is so slippery that I'm afraid that I'm going to drop it and I don't want to put a case on it... of course, this is just a side effect of how cool the phone is. Also, phone is missing the menu/properties button so that's a bit annoying... I have to use the hold back button fix.

[Galaxy S 4 General] coolkodz:
Requires root

Firstly go into settings > more > about device > software update, and disable the Auto Update option.

Use an auto start or boot manager to disable both processes for "Software Update". You may need select a setting to show system apps on your list.

This should cause the system to not check if there is a downloaded OTA update on your phone.

Note: If you have more than one Software Update app then open the notification in your notification bar and postpone the update further and go back to your boot manager to check which of your Software Update apps were running. This is the one you will need to disable.

Should you need to install the OTA update later, go into the Software Update settings and click check for update OR go back to your boot manager and enable the processes again and reboot.

Thanks to DocRambone for the HowTo to do the Transparent Statusbar.

This is how the Battery looks like:

If you want another Battery, just download the Zip from NadMaj's Thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2280597

open the zip, get to \system\app\SystemUI.apk

open that .apk with 7zip.

Now you are in SystemUI.apk.

there go into \res\ and replace the drawable-xxhdpi folder with the one you will copy from the zip of the battery-MOD you want!

Now close everything up, put that Zip onto your SD-Card and flash it through CWM :D should do the trick^^

Hope it's OK to do this like this, otherwise please delete the Thread :)

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] darkcell:
My friends on XDA2 reseller said that the hardware quality of newer XDA2 on the market is lower than previous...it was a missproduct

especially XDA2 with ROM 1.66.165 and bootloader 1.06, it had bad case, bad display and bad ROM chip that can cause restarting/resetting, causing XDA2 coma that require hard resetting...

HTC taiwan realized that XDA2 era will come to an end soon, and they wouldn't like to spent lot of bucks for XDA2 anymore, so, there is a bad quality of XDA2 hardware (LCD,ROM chips,CASE,etc), let us know, their focus is now on XDA3.

and, the ROM 1.66.65 was never on http://wiki.xda-developers.com/wiki/HimalayaExtromVersions lists

There's lot of people complaining and frustating about their XDA2 (1.66.165)

My second XDA2 is 1.66.165 ROM, it restarts many2 times, hard reset once (buy it for 3 days)...upgraded it to 1.72.126, the problem still remains, it was very bad bad product compared to my first XDA2 with rom 1.60.44

My new XDA2 as compared to my old one:

- The screen is bit brighter and a yellowish screen seen from left angle.

- My 3 days old XDA already had loose battery cover??

- The ROM chip is the main reason for our XDA2 to be randomly locked up.

The conclusion:

wake up guys! it was a hardware failure...not the ROM...

I'm wondering, how did HTC get these 'bad' parts ? You think they did extra shopping to find a worse part an d probably cheaper ?

I really don't believe it.

Like most things, getting the parts fast is a lot cheaper then getting bad, cheap parts...

Like the Intel CPU's, they don't setup the productionline for 1200, 1400, 1600 etc MHz. They just make a lot of CPU's, then test them at 1600.

If their stable it's a 1600Mhz. If it isn't, it's tested at 1400, if its stable, it's a 1400Mhz. If its not, it's tested at 1200, if it's stable it's a 1200Mhz.

If it's is not...... etc etc etc etc....

XDA II Coma

Evening peeps, just adding my 2 pennies worth with the newer XDA 2, i have indeed experenced "coma" like symptoms which for some strange reason can only be corrected with a hard reset. Its most odd and usually happens when im doing somthing. I dont know if the OS is abled to be debugged so i cant say anything more spacific, It may be totally unrelated and i havent searched here if anyone else has had this issue to please forgive me if i am repeating something old, anyhow, i also seem to get audio issues in that the sound turns off, im unable to turn sound on or increase volume, vibrate does not work either, its like the "coma" cept it only effects sound

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] penicilllin:
darkcell is 100$ right...

not only an xda issue..

it's HTC related..

all the new htc devices are of less quality..

we have three i-mate devices in the house..

mine was bought about 8 months ago..

the other 2 was bought about 3 months ago..

and what??

well as darkcell said.. the new devices have really worse screens than the already not so good screen of my device..

really annoying high contrast,yellowish, you can see nothing but yellow light when you look from even a little angle...

these symptoms do not exist in my device..

and believe it or not..

the 2 devices(my brother and my sister) are now useless since the headphone jack problem which i dont know how can we mend it(any one for help??)

im really sure that HTC are producing less quality devices and that's the cause of the price fall in i-mate(mine for 950$.. and after 6 months and in a very short time 570$)..

Shame...

my two cents worth:

ALL devices are not perfect, have you had OS software that worked perfectly?

remember bill gates when he presented at that time the NEWEST and most ROBUST windows OS? BLUE SCREEN right in his face? hehehe, that was the biggest irony in sofware industry.

Ok, XDA 2 is used with MS not-so-perfect software and HTC no-so-great cost cutting measures. PLUS sometimes, WE force the ISSUE by installing products wherein XDA2 is not even in the LIST of supported device and expect it to run perfectly.

My XDA2 has experienced 2 HARD resets, one on its own and another i did on purpose. YES, it has its limitations, BUT i still LOVE it coz IT works fine MOST of the time. I would say 95%.

Compare with other PDA-phones in the market today, XDA 2 still ranks best.

Nothing is PERFECT, show me a device and we'll find its defect.

metalz,

in everything that we do, there are always advantages and disadvantages, its up to you if the good points outweigh the bad.

though, the USEFUL apps and the FUN time I had using the XDA 2 clearly outweigh the time I took to re-install all progs after a hard reset. BACKUP then reinstalling wouldnt be a hassle at all.

I use MORPHGEAR GAME EMULATORS to run any game, Nintendo, Game Boy, SEGA and this is where I have fun.

Checked my Email in transit, Worked on some documents while in a bus, pacified my daughter by letting her draw on the screen while waiting, Pocket KAMA for other recreation, videos and music.

5. My game consoles

6. Drawing and Coloring book for my daughter
