Hi all,

I got an O2 exec last friday. I noticed it was very slow. Anyway the screen stopped working so I took it back to an 02 shop. they gave me a replacement. however, i realised the replacement was not new, there was a call history on the device! so i took it back and demanded a new one. on initial installation of the replacement i opted for the corporate install. this one runs like a rocket! no issues with speed at all! much better! i think the home screen on the regular install slows things down loads.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] din007:
I was advised to do a hard-rest then pick the Basic installation.

Also deactived "Error reporting" and "Accept incoming beams" as advised on these forums.

This seems to have helpped/
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] CJSnet:
Didn't you have to enter a PIN to activate Corporate Mode?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] ross360:
not that i'm aware of. when i did this install, i got the default windows home screen with no slow O2 stuff
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] CJSnet:
Are you sure you didn't enter Basic mode? Corporate Mode prompts you for a PIN.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] ross360:
i presume that basic would be for use with 3rd party. the install is def different to when I did the original instal mode. anyone know how you tell which install you did??

Any body remember these reg tweaks from himalaya? they still work

:)

*** Speed Up Your Windows Mobile Pocket PC.

1. Open your registry editor o_n your Pocket PC

2. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GDI\GLYPHCACHE\

3. Change the value of 'limit' from 8192 to 32768

4. Close registry editor and soft reset.

*** disable start menu animation

Browse to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GWE\Menu\

Change the "AniType" value from 6 to 0.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] ump001:
Hi what is the GLYPCACHE? and does this change cause any problems?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] davidberrysmith:
in a nut shell it sets the number of character glyphs cached per font before least-recently-used is replaced

In effect can help speed by increasing cache size at the cost of memory... no more no less
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] CJSnet:
So by activating that how many KB or memory are we losing?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] herpi:
Thx, now I have the guts to install some new things.

Huib
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] davidberrysmith:
going from 8kb to 32kb = 24kb loss for improved spead.

or choose a happy medium in between (multiples of 1024) e.g. 16384 = 16kb

we are talking about small improvements combined = better experience

install gspocketmagic++

turn off animated start menu

increase character glyph cache

all combined = noticable speed increase

Sorry for a idiot qustion.

Could someone provide a 'dummys' guide to switching to the Corprate install on this - including how to do a hard reset. Got a XDA Exec from o2.

Thanks

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] CJSnet:
You don't need to hard reset AFAIK. Just click Programs>Install Type, choose Corporate and enter the above PIN. That removes O2 Active. From what I can see Corporate seems no different to Basic mode.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] the_norris:
Many thanks.

i all so have a very slow exec thinking of taking it back

bag of crap comes to mind cant use tomtom5 and so slow
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] red.earth:
I've got an Exec and when I got it, I installed all my PPC app's.. it ran like a dog. Anyway, after a hard reset, I only installed app's which were written to run on Win Mobile 2005... and now it's fine :-D

So, there's your answer! Don't install non Win Mobile app's.

FYI, it looks like the offender was one of these:

Egress

MindManager

CodeWallet 3.6

Still waiting for Agenda Fusion :-( How much longer???

exec too slow

yes mine is slow, it worked perfect on my xda 2i ruunning from a 2gb sd card ...now my mame emulator is pants..... and pac man etc is just a waste of time...

the EXEC is awful...... so slow!!!!

plays films smaller than a postage stamp, atleast the 2i had the brains to enlarge a movie of film clip

O2 on speeding up your XDA Exec

I called O2 yesterday about my xdea being locked up tight. The tech ran me through a few thing to do to the phone one was to put it in basic mode, and the second was to turn off error reporting in settings/system and yes it does increase performance 100% i found it very noticeable!!!

as for themeing your exec do a google search for pocket pc themes and there is a MS page for a theme generator for the ppc 2002 BUT it does work you just have to transfer the file to the windows directory on the device

Here are the changes which I made to my device to make it work faster.

*un-install the anti virus program.

*Diactivate the error reporting.

*Set the power settings as follows: "Start / Settings / System / Power / Advance / Un-check turn off device if not used for ".

*To avoid ending up with a flat battery do the following settings: " Start / Settings / System / Power / Tap backlight at the bottom of the screen / Check "Turn off backlight if device is not used for 30 seconds."

*In the same menu "backlight" tap brightness and adjust the brightness to the minimum level .

I made the above changes and my device works fine.

Try it, I hope you all will find a lot of improvement.

I thought I might mention that using anton tomov pocket hackmaster 2005, I have sucessfully over clocked my exec from up to the next intel CPU in the range (624 MHz), it has made a HUGE diffrence, even with that stoopid O2 crap all over my screen, although it now chews through the battery much faster.

Im gonna try corporate mode next :)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] francorg:

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] darkan9el:
Not had the Exec long and I have to say I'm disappointed in its performance so far, especially compared to the likes of my bro's compaq PDA. But I know that to get the best out of something, tweaking is a necessary evil especially concerning anything related to computers.

I have tried some of the settings listed in this post and it does make a bit of difference.

As for TomTom 5 I couldn't get the BT GPS to work so I upgraded to 5.1 and it now works, abeit a bit jerky.

I have a post on here asking about the corp option so we shall see
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] nabil2000:
Reply from OEM (HTC) about performance

After exchange of emails with manufacturers of Universal, they assured me that a new rom was on the pipeline to address all the performance issues discussed about in this board, including better memory management, faster response time and better video playback quality at speeds between 1.3 and 2 MBps (enough to watch a well encoded divx movie from a flash card or via wifi)...

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] sergeantash:
Interested in this Glyph thing, can we go beyond the 32500 or close to that you recommend? perhaps go to double that? or does performance approach optimum at 32500?

Also, I'm a little worried about upgrading the ROM and Radio with the new updates, as I don't want to have to 'start all over again' and reinstall all the software etc, can I update one of the other without having to reinstall?

Cheer, Ash
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Ward:
The Exec feels much much faster in portrait mode than landscape mode for me. Try it - find a program that does some constant amount of work to the screen such as an ebook reader or image browser and see how fast you can skip through pages/images in each orientation.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Hemant:
Re: O2 on speeding up your XDA Exec

Alternatively you can put all your theme files on the root directory of your SD card and it will be still be shown in the today settings. This will help you save precious internal memory if you intend to keep a lot of themes.

Hope this helps.

P.S. As far as i know this work only for WM5 devices. Also i have read on the Axim forums that if you are using PI, you can remove the poutlook.ink from your startup folder. That also helps to make the device work a bit faster.

I'll do a quick review of the black version, never really liked long reviews.

Slim

Ports, IR, etc, all match up

Does have opening for the speaker

Power, Vol+, and Vol- buttons are very easy to press. Nothing like the hard TPU cases from ebay.

The back side "+" symbols are a little glossy.

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Acaibowl:
Got the same one and screen protector from Spigen.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] RaptorMD:
IF we get a Slim Armor View. They said no out of the gate, then the crowd started getting loud, now they are yelling and with threads going asking about it Spigen has put their FB page asking for feedback on making one. Seriously, you have how many iphone cases and you can't make a case people will spend big money on.

I canceled my other Spigen orders since they won't cancel a single item which is a PITA and because of that I lost my promo deals on the Neo-Hybrid and screen protectors. So I just ordered a Bounce case for now, but I am looking to get the Seidio Leger case which is pretty solid.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] staryoshi:
I'll post pictures of my Bounce in gray when it comes in :)

Cases like this are the ideal solution for me, combined with a screen protector of course.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] F123D:
Does this case cover up the chrome ring around the camera on the back?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] MopHeadGeek:
If you look at the right angle can you still see the solver bezel under the sides as my bounce case leaves a gap between screen and bezel where the rubber don't go all way down to the screen
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] DKYang:
Chrome ring? No idea what exactly you're talking about. I took a picture of the camera hole with case on, so that should answer your question I assume.

Nope, I do not see any noticeable gap. Can you post pictures of yours?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] staryoshi:
The Bounce is the perfect case for me. It's compact, it encompasses the entire perimeter of the phone, and it looks classy in person. I'm quite satisfied.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] diesel5:
can you post a front view please? someone mentioned about a gap between the screen and case, just wanted to check before i order

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] crusnik23:
I have the black on my black phone and love it. I'm probably going to get the slim armor view if they make it and I'll pick up the neo hybrid once it is prime on amazon. The way I see it, if it isn't on amazon prime I probably don't need it.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] oneandroidnut:
i love my bounce! i tried to cancel my neo and slim orders on amazon but they already shipped! :/ going to return to sender when i get them in though. this case and my clear one coming should be all i need!
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Miracle1980:
I need to decide between this bounce from Spigen and the Diztronic Matte Back Black. What do you suggest? Is the Spigen slippery? Any comparison with the Diztronic?

Thanks
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] DKYang:
It wasn't slippery in my hands. I've never had a Diztronic one so can't compare.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] aquaholik:
Very nice review and close up pics. I think I'm going to like this case. Not too thick and just enough lip thickness to give it good protection without being bulky. I just placed an order thru Amazon Prime.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] indecentspeech:
Where you get the Blue Bounce case from? I don't see it on the Spigen site or Ebay or on Amazon.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Shawheim:
I got the grey too. Came in today. Great fit awesome case.

Scribbled From My Note 3
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] diesel5:
I got this case today, the bottom piece that touches the screen seems very flimsy and part of the silver bezel on the top and bottom seem to be very slightly exposed
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Shawheim:
Of course the bottom isn't as rigid as the rest of the case, it's the only part that has all the cut outs. Less TPU material= less rigidity, or flimsy as you stated.

[G2 Accessories] tiguy99:
Just got mine today. Will install in a couple hours. Super excited... Just wondering if the screen protector covers the entire screen or only partial coverage like my super shields screen cover?
[G2 Accessories] texasPI:
Pretty much covers whole screen except camera/sensor/notification light/earpiece. It goes edge-to-edge which may be a problem with some cases. Though I find these wet application protectors are not as prone to having edges pushed up by cases since they adhere better to the screen. Haven't had an issue with my diztronic case and this screen protector.
[G2 Accessories] 30br:
I purchased some of these protectors and installed them on my G2. The feel is good, installation was typical of a soft film protector. I installed the screen guard and back skin two days ago, and have noticed a problem.

On my screen I noticed what appeared to be scratches. I was afraid I scratched the glass before I installed the protector. The scratches run in the long direction of the screen and vary from 1/16th to 3/8ths of an inch long and are about 1 to 2 pixel rows wide, and are randomly located all over the screen..

On closer inspection I noticed on the back skin a number of scratches that look just like the defects I see in the screen. These did not show up until last night, so I have to conclude that they are defects in the adhesive application from manufacturing, that did not show up until the moisture from the protector installation had evaporated. I was getting ready to return the phone as defective until I noticed the same defects on the back skin.

I only paid $2 for the set, so still a good deal. But slightly annoying.
[G2 Accessories] Nattychamp:
Definitely worth two bucks

I've had mine applied for over 3 days now, long enough that I can give a decent opinion of the product. As other members said, these are wet application protectors, and I was concerned when mine showed up in a plain white envelope SOAKING wet. Luckiky it didnt seem to have any impact on the installation. I've applied dozens of wet application protectors, and this was no easier or harder than the rest. There is a very slight orange peel texture visible (nowhere near Zagg level), but i can not feel it. The fit is great, leaving no gap on either side of the screen, and an uncovered area at the top and bottom about the thickness of my thumbnail (it looks like it would accommodate a Ringke Slim-type case if one became available without touching the protector). It is physically tackier (or less smooth) than higher end films, but not unbearably so. The fit of the back cover is acceptable, and does WONDERS for the G2s normally slick back. You will want to do as the instructions say and let the pieces that apply to rounded areas dry completely before trying to stick down. My only real complaint is that almost all edges have no bevel or taper to them, attracting lint and just feeling odd when you touch them, like you might accidentally lift an area up (which hasnt heppened, once dried, it feels very secure, but it's always in the back of my mind).
[G2 Accessories] 30br:
Take a look at the screen when it is displaying a white or grey background, and look for rainbowy/glimmery lines running the long direction of the phone, They are hard to see until you notice one, then you will see them all over. I ordered two sets of protectors, I'm hoping this one is an oddball. If you don't see the lines I might install the other set. You have to look very carefully for them.
