[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] zebra72:
Thanks for all the quick replies. Just to recap, ODIN back to Stock NB1 (no need to uninstall the remnants of SafeStrap I have now?), Downgrade to MK2, Root, Safestrap.

Also, I'm not sure what I did wrong when I went from rooted Stock NB1 to try to flash SHOStock 3.0 (which was 4.3). I honestly wasn't paying attention to the messages, so maybe I had a unable to mount /system error then, but then I went to reboot it, just was blank. That's when I decided to be stupid and go to recovery to advanced wipe including /system. I guess now if I want to run SHOStock 3.0, or whatever ROM, I can just install it once I have Safestrap rather than installing the Rooted ROM and kernel, right?

Thanks again!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] muniz_ri:
No need to odin back to stock NB1, the downgrade file will get you back to a semi-functioning(no-wifi) MK2 at which point you can root and install safestrap. From there go to the SHoStock thread for instructions on how to properly install that particular ROM.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] zebra72:
Thanks again for the quick reply.

Just to clarify, I guess I'm really confused about what kernel I would have if I flash the downgrade file? Would it overwrite the NB1 kernel I flashed after I flashed the rooted stock NB1 in Safestrap? I noticed that in going to rooted stock NB1 (or NC1), you have to ODIN flash the kernel.

Thanks again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] muniz_ri:
Yes the downgrade will revert you back to mk2 kernel in order for you to be able to root.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arifkpi:
Until yesterday, i was an Xperia SP user but today i move on Xperia Z.

Now i'm on 4.3, i' not sure why i get better benchmark score with SP(antutu- 23500+) but with Xperia Z(antutu- 20000) even Xperia Z has a Quad Core Processor, 2GB RAM & Same GPU.

Can anyone please explain that.

Thanks in advance.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noahvt:
The GPU is the problem ! what do you think will score the best? adreno 320 powering a 4.6 inch display or a adreno 320 powering a 5 inch display? the adreno struggles less with the 4.6 inch 720p screen then with the 5 inch 1080p screen ;) you have nothing to worry about!
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrjraider:
Performance wise both phone are theoreticly identical. Hardware specific:

Dual Core 1.7 VS Quad Core 1.5

1 GB RAM VS 2 GB RAM

Adreno 320 VS Adreno 320

4.6" VS 5.0"

We see some diffrences.. It is not much since we have the second most powerful GPU in our Mid-End at the moment released (Adreno 330 is more powerfull!)

I am happy with it..

And remember Benchmarks are just numbers.. ;)
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noahvt:
If the xperia Z had a 4.6 inch display it would score better and If the xperia sp had a 5 inch display it would score less
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrjraider:
Look at the diffences in AntuTu (Like i mentioned earlier I dont give a damn about numbers but it is still funny to see)

It is not much.. So both devices are somewhat identical in case of performance.. The quad core is better compared to the dual core but we have almost 2500 points more in 3D graphics :P
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pavapizza:
in xperia Z the gpu will try to render everything to 1080 compared to our screen which only support 720. that alone makes the gpu processing faster on our beloved SP. not to mention the screen size which also stresses the adreno 320.

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingvortex:
Mainly because the SP has a 720p display compared to the Z's 1080p, therefore there is less strain on the GPU during certain parts of the benchmark.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DreadPirateDan:
This.

Try it on your computer if you're still confused about it - set resolution lower, benchmark, set higher, benchmark, compare.

Also, consider the fact that the dual core processor in the SP is clocked faster than the XZ. So in single threaded apps/benchmarks it will most likely outperform the quadcore as the extra cores aren't being utilized.

The majority of apps out there are single threaded so it's possible that antutu's tests favor single threaded apps? This is just speculation though.

Good morning everyone! I'm new here on XDA.

Today did not pay attention and ended up restoring the files from the CM11 in the Stock ROM partition and now the machine is in boot loop.

Someone could make available for download the backup files from the stock rom of Gingerbread Razr XT 910?

Only files "system.ext3.win.md5" and "system.ext3.win" so I can restore at Safestrap.

Do not ask me why I want version 2.3, because I know you already have the ICS 4.0.4 and 4.1.2 JB.

Please someone to make the files available for download, I lost my backup.

It can also be ICS 4.0.4 if no Gingerbread

[Samsung Galaxy Gear] warrencoakley:
I have been searching the forum but i cannot seem to get any answers to this.

I have installed null 23 on my GG V1 with excitement that i would be able to tether Bluetooth to my GG so i can use stock apps etc on my wrist.

I have it up and working but it becomes insanely hot after around 4 minutes or so,to the degree of feeling like it will explode any minute.

So having Bluetooth tethering using the wifi spoof is pointless then if the watch overheats and needs to be turned off.

Has anyone else experienced this or found a fix for it please,as all the hype to use google,apps etc seem pointless.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] delboydell:
I installed null a couple of days back and don't have this problem. my phone however went into meltdown, and it was due to the phones lookout security not knowing what was going on.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] warrencoakley:
Really i have had numerous people who have rooted their Galaxy Gear who have said when they tether on the null rom the watch heats up,so your saying that that does not happen with yours? So you can keep the tethering going for a long time on the watch with no issues?
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] delboydell:
Yes mine is fine I used the video mix app and watched about 15 mins of the new robocop film without issues
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Issa Eid:
i had this issue too, it heats up in 3 to 4 min. i can tell you why!

while you are tethering, go to voltage control and there you can notice that the cpu is fully loaded.

i solved that by putting the governor to "power save" and the minimal power to 600 MHZ. in this way, cpu will stick to the minimal power that you defined.

i will try to change the kernel to "triangulum" and give you feedback for that.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] warrencoakley:
OK i will try that and see if it stops the over heating but i would love to hear some feedback on the triangulum. Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] warrencoakley:
Did you do anything within null 23 or settings? in order to reduce the heat completely? What way are you tethering?
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] warrencoakley:
OK i done that and it seems to be still heating up. DO i need to change the scheduler to anything?
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] warrencoakley:
OK tried it a few times,it doesn't hit up as much but there is some heat there. Am i doing anything wrong?
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Brendo:
Can't really help other than to say I haven't had any heating issues
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Issa Eid:
no there is nothing wrong, it's just heat bcz the cpu stick to 600 MHZ all the time while the tethering is on.

i tried triangulum for some time, i found the same thing! the cpu is fully loaded untill you limit his power by the same procedure.

the thing is you can apply power save with minimal power to 200 MHZ and it will never heat! but you will face a huge lag !!

i couldn't find any other way.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] hurdlejade:
I've been tethered with my Gear for about 9 hours and I haven't noticed heating. I'm mostly tethered, with some random sync going in the background, but it's never truly hot.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] delboydell:
when I 1st installed null, I didn't alter any settings (about processer and cores) as I don't mess with things I don't understand. I also am in the uk and have teathering as standard on my S4 so I didn't install the extra stuff for doing that? perhaps that's the problem.

[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
There is a tutorial on how to flash the Sprint variant to PP. Not sure if the same applies to the VZW edition, but probably.

There are a couple of caveats, however. First, you need a USED 4g sim card - otherwise the phone will constantly notify you that its missing SIM or not activated....

And second, you will not get 4G on PP. Limited to 3G EVDO only.

Good Luck. Let us know if you are successful.

I have the motorola atrix 4g currently has android 2.3.6 carrier ATT. Normally I could really care less about eye candy etc, but I find the final build att put out to be a little buggy.

All the mods I have found on this forum and another are just over welming. All I want is a stable rom that will run efficiently and allow me to completely get rid of moto blur. I am technically savy, but have little experience with roms on phones. So any youtube links and how to you think would be a help to me I would greatly appreciate.

That's a very subjective opinion, and this kind of threads aren't allowed by the rules.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] palmbeach05:
[MENTION=2810848]andresrivas[/MENTION] is correct. this thread, at least the first post, smells of a "what is the best ROM" kind of thread. that kind is banned on xda, which is what he was referring to. In order to completely get rid of motoblur, you need to go to a custom ROM (Paranoid, AOKP, and CyanogenMod are the more common ones).

Your first step would be to read the how to unlock, root, and flash a custom recovery, and then do it. if you already are, then you can skip that part.

Next is to decide what Android version you want to be on, GB (2.3 series), ICS (4.0.4), or JB (4.1-4.3). From there, you really are on your own as far as what ROM you pick.

What process did you use to root?
[Firefox OS General] vampirefo:
The method I used is very complex, I had to make my own method, requires unpacking boot.img setting kernel to unsecure, repacking, booting from packed boot.img using adb to mount /system as rw and pushing su, and setting permissions.

I am sure someone else has an easier method, to be able to flash boot.img or recovery.img you would need to unlock bootloader first, as I said the process is complex.

I built my own recovery, so the process is easier than what I went through first time, I am currently deodexing the rom, and going to flash it through my recovery to see how it acts.

This thread links to a how to unlock the bootloader, that's really the first step.

[Firefox OS General] vampirefo:
Performance is like a dual core with 512 ram, not much to write home about, naturally having gapps installed is a plus, I went ahead and deodexed the stock Rom, and added permanent root to it, makes it easier to reflash that way.

You aren't going to gain speed by switching OS, you are just going to switch OS, ZTE has on their site an update for Firefox it does preform better than the version that comes on the phone.
