[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] petersbc:
I say slow because they are much slower that a Galaxy S4 and Note 3. At work today we were testing out a Belkin AC router to a cable modem. Using the Speedtest.net app the galaxy's were reliably hitting 200-210 Mbs download speeds. My new One was only able to muster 95Mbs down. I come home and connect to my ASUS N66 router and I'm able to hit 104Mbs reliably. What gives? This makes no sense to me. I verified I had a 433 Mbs link when on the AC router at work, same as the Samsungs, we were all in the same location I even tried standing where they were and holding the phone differently in-case I was blocking the antenna. I never expected to be able to get 104 down at home standing one room and 30 feet for the router. Is there something weird going on with the app maybe?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davebugyi:
In WiFi advanced settings, disable WiFi optimization - other uses stated it helped them to increase the speeds.

Settings>WiFi>Advanced
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] petersbc:
Thanks I read that and tried it to no avail. Speeds were better yesterday at 150Mbs and inline with a coworkers brand new ONE running 4.3. I believe it is just a matter of how HTC deals with packet size (windowing) and not truly indicative of throughput capability. The test runs for a limited time and the throughput increased throughout the entire test. If it ran longer it would climb higher but just how high is the question.

It's a matter of curiosity more than anything as I never need those speeds nor are the repeatable anywhere but in that test"lab" In reality I only have a 100M connection at home and with power boost see speeds of 150 max. I get 100+ reliably (5Ghz N network) to the phone from my main living space and that's nothing to complain about.

I will have to say the range on the ONE is outstanding. My desk is 100 feet from the AP and I was able to obtain 125Mbs reliably from my desk. I didn't have the chance to compare it to the S4 at that distance but I can't complain about that speed.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cigaweedz:
Hi guys, I'm a newbie when it comes to Android (just got my Aussie Note 3 yesterday).

Questions on Android ROMs; (I haven't install/updated ROMs from the time my wife had a HTC One touch) After installing a ROM and when a new updated ROM version does come out, do I install the updated ROM or does it come up like "New updates" feature? What happens to my customizations? Is there a backup I can retrieve everything from?

Does it work like this;

Install Sweet ROM > Customize Phone > Backup ?

Later on, Download updated Sweet ROM version > Reinstall > Restore Backup ?

Thanks and hope to hear from someone soon.

Cheers

Good luck getting a response to this....

I'm in the same boat as you, also have the Aussie 9005 (with the locked down bottom row of apps rubbish) but don't know about modding/"romming". Problem here is that this forum is filled with nuclear physicists and we're asking basic algebra questions :) There are I guess owners who wouldn't know what a ROM was if it bit them, who wouldn't visit these types of forums anyway, and users who customize/crack/mod phones to within an inch of their little electric lives, but not really anywhere for us folks in between... Oh well, let's hope on of the nuclear physicists not only takes pity on us, but can also explain in more detail than "crack prom de la vega, set ?"># to null in lms45s. file and rejigger"

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] metaleap:
Hiya, hobby/indie gamedev here so bear with me even if I never built my own kernel module or some such :D

Basically glGetString(GL_VERSION) gives me "OpenGL ES 2.0 v@14.0 au [MENTION=1399927]yaddayadda[/MENTION]" --- wondering how I can finally get my HTC One M7's Adreno 320 GPU to expose/report OpenGL ES 3.0? For apps to utilize ES3, it's not sufficient for the Adreno to be ES3-"capable" or ES3-"certified", it needs to somehow communicate that support to Android's GL system, right? So I have put Android 4.3 "Google Play Edition for HTC ONE" (yes specifically that rom that's totally targeting just the one, and it does get all OTA updates etc., it's not rooted though) on the HTC One M7 --- there should be nothing to stop me from digging into the GL ES 3.0 goodness! Alas, seems like whatever driver comes out of box with the HTC One's "Google Play Edition" of Android 4.3 won't give me that.

Is there a separate "developer" or "tinkerer" or other Adreno driver (by Qualcomm) we can install? My device has S-OFF, unlocked Bootloader, and I can adb and fastboot somewhat.. now how do I get GL ES 3.0 on my Adreno 320?

Now I get it that native Android developers / NDK users can hack their way into the Adreno's ES 3 capabilities via eglGetProcAddress and gl3stub.h/.c but that's not my point here. I'm wondering, where is the official Adreno 320 driver reporting to all GL-using Android apps "you can create an ES3 context" or "your GL context is version ES3, you're welcome".

In addition to my own simple test app made in Unity ---that simply prints out SystemInfo.graphicsDeviceVersion which is really just a call to glGetString(GL_VERSION)--- I have installed numerous "GL benchmark" / "GL ES info" apps etc (only installed recently updated ones where the description is clearly stating they support and detect GL ES 3.x if present).

In all those apps only GL ES 2.x is ever reported as being present, so it's not a Unity bug. Somehow the Adreno 320 drivers included with the special HTC-One-targeting "Google Play Edition" Android 4.3 ROM don't seem to live up to all the HTC/Adreno marketing hype about GL ES 3 support.

What to do?

Ok so I ran a command on the libcamera.so file called objdump and among the output, it said in part camera.qsd8k.so. I Googled qsd8k and it may already have a source:

My problem is I can't figure out how to repo init Hash's repos and it always errors out otherwise I would try to figure this out. If this is the case, someone who is a little more experienced building their own ROMs from existing repos might want to try this.

(warning: english is not my native language! My grammar my cause damage to your brain.)

Hello, everyone! After a long time hammering my head against the keyboard, plus 5 hours of waiting I finally successed at building my first ROM for the old lg_p500 my dad gave me after buying his new phone. I used the device from lgics at github repo cm_lge_p500 jellybean. As I came to know, android 4.x.x + got alot bigger. and the brunch command exit with error because it exceded the max size and deleted the system.img file (the /system folder unziped is about 233Mb). I know shinobisoft made a tool to help trimming the ROM, and that is my next step

The questions are: 1) where do I change the size limit for the image. 2) do I have to build it all over again? is it going to be faster the second time? (I still have the files at ~/out) 3) what is the best way to get the system.img and the zipped ROM back?

PS: By the way, it appears that there is a small mistake (or not, how am I to say) in de README sugestion for the local_manifest.xml

https://github.com/lgics/cm_device_lge_p500/blob/jellybean/README"]https://github.com/lgics/cm_device_lge_p500/blob/jellybean/README

The common device repo is "android_device_lge_msm7x27-common". There is no "cm_device_lge_msm7x27-common" repository at lgics. (Some one as dense as me could lose a lot of time until he understands how git works :silly:)
[Paranoid Android Q&A] megsto:
Hi!

So, first off, I'm completely new to all of this. I've had my Nexus for about a year now, and after much reading, thinking and research I decided to root it and flash Paranoid Android. I did a terrible job, clearly.

I used Nexus root toolkit 1.7.2 and was running Jellybean 4.3.

First problem was that my root wouldn't go into custom recovery mode, all I got was an open droid on its side with a red exclamation point. That was scary.

I unrooted using toolkit and rerooted. The custom recovery worked this time, so from there I flashed Paranoid Android 3.99

It started to reboot in PA, and it's still going.

I can't get into recovery mode. I can't get the battery out.

Every time I try to get into recovery mode it starts to reboot. Right now, I have a glowing brick of glass and metal

So, yeah. Anyone got a solution?

Thanks.
[Paranoid Android Q&A] megsto:
UPDATE:

I successfully flashed the stock rom.:laugh: I used nexus toolkit, just had to use the advanced settings that sounded scary at first.

Could someone provide or link to a step by step indepth guide to flashing PA. Starting from before root. I don't trust myself again.:confused:

[Paranoid Android Q&A] megsto:

Further question, I don't know if you know anything about this, but since I reset to stock ROM, my back softkey and volume keys don't work.

Any ideas? Should I start a new thread concerning this issue?
[Paranoid Android Q&A] Anu6is:
No, sorry... can't help you there.

Did a quick google search and found reports of volume keys not functioning for some people after a 4.3 update but nothing in regards to the back button.

As it's not a problem I'm familiar with, the most I could suggest is a reboot. If you do plan on flashing a custom ROM though, hopefully that resolves it.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] astage:
Unfortunately, two problems are emerging on the backup/restore front.

Firstly, it appears as though a hard-reset does not totally clear the Universal. I've found settings that stay and somebody in another thread has reported photos remaining intact - haven't tested this myself.

Secondly, sadly Sunnysoft's Backup Manager does not perform a true backup/restore. It doesn't back up all files/settings, and their restore will just merge the backup with currently existing files. In otherwords, it won't wipe and put back the system to the same state it was when backed up.

If that is correct then you need to check for updates and/or contact them.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Have you done a CLEAN install ? If you did do dirty flash, expect camera issues. Please do Factory Reset, format Dalvik and Cache. After that re-install the Rom.

i was under the impression this was a problem with not only me but a lot of others. Is factory reset the only option?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
If others have this problem then voice your concerns in the appropriate thread for the app. Here in General Q&A by name it is Generic and not specific to any app. So you will not get correct help. If you posted in the app's thread, you will get news about updates and fixes/workarounds.

Since we don't know if its your setup or the app, you need to eliminate at least your setup as a potential cause of the issue. Sometimes Dirty flash is ok. But if issues creep up then you need clean install. You have to backup your contacts, photos and any other app preferences such as Launcher. Ideally use Titanium backup to do this. Make sure the backup is stored on the External SD Card.

After that is done, you have to do factory Reset. If you complain to the Rom Developers, this is the first thing you'd informed. So yes under the present circumstances, you have to do factory reset.

If you read the OP for your Rom, I will bet more than likely this is one of the steps mentioned there as part of installation instructions.
