Umm...

OT

...Android kernels don't get "rooted". Root on these phones simply means having the "su" app with suid set, and superuser.apk around to manage thos permissions. If you can put those two files in place with a stock kernel, and properly set the permissions, you have root.

endOT

That said, there appear to be two "packaged" solutions to OC your FroYo:

Cyanogen's update.zip (not only does it put in an overclockable kernel, it also roots your phone).

Pershoot's newly-posted kernel (this is what I'm running...)

Of course, if you are brave, you can always "roll your own". People are clearly doing this, as there are FroYo Nexus One's out there showing 1.2ghz speeds.
[Nexus One General] dsixda:
You also need ro.secure=0 in the default.prop file (of the ramdisk portion of boot.img). So you could say the kernel gets 'rooted' this way (correct me if I'm wrong).

(On the Motorola Milestone this is not possible even though you can add "su" and "Superuser.apk", although on the Droid you can)
[Nexus One General] followinginsanity:
has anyone really gotten a real world speed increase with the OC'ed cpu? Yes it can technically run faster, but do our phones ever really max out the cpu when we are using them? Personally I feel that the ram adds more to the speed of the phone than the cpu. But that just an opinion. I'll have to see about doing some testing to see what the active cpu levels are under use.
[Nexus One General] codesplice:
You can see improvements with benchmarks, but as far as noticing a difference... no, not really. There's always the placebo effect of "wow, this is so much faster with a ~10% overclock", but I don't think it's really a difference that you can pick up on. There are a lot of other things that could account for a 10-15% performance difference at any given time.

Granted, I could tell more of a difference on 2.1 than I can on 2.2 Froyo's JIT capability improves the efficiency to the point that you really can't tell a difference at all. Under 2.1, I at least felt like the menus were just a little snappier. Everything is snappy under Froyo though.

Clear as mud, lol?
[Nexus One General] sheek360:
side by side with a stock clocked n1 was the only way i could see a differance.

but its not a drastic differance, like a stock droid vs 800 mhz droid

Hi, the title contains pretty much everything.

The glass on top of the screen is shattered and therefore touch input isnt working..

Id like to know if i can send the unlock code via my computer.

thanks!
[Hero, G2 Touch General] k0rner:
You can use androidscreencast ( http://code.google.com/p/androidscreencast/ ) to control the phone from PC and click the buttons

Haha,... I was gona suggest that but thought its too obvious an answer! Funny.
[General Topics] raywright1:
I'm having a hard time understanding why European GPRS vendors make a distinction between email, internet, and WAP services, and consequently I don't know what service to ask for when I purchase a PAYG SIM when I travel.

My primary GPRS interest is

SMTP for the handset's email client for IMAP (both google and exchange server accounts)

ActiveSync for contacts/calendar synchronization.

RSS reading, resulting in some cases some podcast downloading

Tethering via WMWiFiRouter

as you can see, i'm not a big HTML user, if at all.

What key terms and phrases should I look out for in the service descriptions in order to get the right internet service I need?

A specific example would be the ambiguity Vodafone Romania has between the email mobile vs internet mobile descriptions and the related APN differences "live.vodafone.com" and "internet.vodafone.com".

Also, for some reason T-Mobile UK is not included in the excellent list given over in the thread GPRS/Internet Connection Settings for the whole world thread. seems like it should be on page 4 but it's not. any reason for that, and does anyone know the APN settings for TMO/UK?

Lastly, what is an example of a WAP service?

Thanks in advance.
[General Topics] papo:
there is no universal answer to this :(

they made a big mess of it indeed. want to trick customers

wap service:

in most cases it won't let you out of vendor's special web page. there you have access to services to check your credit, payments, company info, some ringtone, music shops... mostly useless stuff.

ah and with windows mobile, there is no official way of setting it up. you can use 'work' and set some rules for wap.* ....anyway, you don't want that.

email:

in most cases this service will allow you to access only email on vendor's server.

e.g. yourname@live.vodafone.xx

in another case you'll have POP, IMAP, SMTP and maybe activesync allowed and web browsing limited to vendor's address.

yet another case is your data plan is small, means you'll pay for 1MB more

for rss you would need full internet anyway.

in general, if you have "internet" service, it have everything in it.

[HD2 General] ukznmcl:
Hi,

I have owned my HTC HD2 for about 3 months now. I have had a problem since i first got it which is really bugging me. Sometimes when the phone locks, i am unable to unlock it with the slider. The slider gets to about half way across the screen and then freezes. If i leave it for a few minutes it goes back to a locked position agian and when i attempt to slide the slider across, it freezes.

The only thing which gives me access to my phone again is to perform a hard reset by removing the battery.

Any ideas? The phone is on UK Vodafone and is running the latest firmware (v.1.72)
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
I don't have an answer, its likely to be sense trying to load something and hanging.there are loads of threads about unlock problems, all different, however I wanted to help you avoid confusion by pointing out that removing the battery is a soft reset, not a hard reset.

I'd start by removing some apps, see if it changes the behavior, then re add til it happens
[HD2 General] butch_bs:
i've the same issue. but not removing battery, just press little red restard button uder battery cover. i think it happens when i enable rotation of today screen or because of proximatelyscreenoff program bug. after removing today from rotation of bsd tweek i have 1-2 restarts for 2 weeks.
[HD2 General] ephestione:
I had the same thing sometimes, but never happened with the latest rom I am using, and I am pretty much installing the same apps over and over after each flash...
[HD2 General] hidden_hunter:
You aren't by chance running the facebook application?

Leaving that open and locking your phone will result in you not being able to unlock your phone
[HD2 General] dio62000:
I wonder if this problem has anything to do with power supply; I sometimes can't unlock the screen either and a few moments ago my battery had run out and when putting it on AC I wasn't able to unlock it. When it had charged a bit there were no problems unlocking it.
[HD2 General] hidden_hunter:
As I said, have you tried making sure Facebook isn't running

HD2 screen unlock probblem

Hi All,

I have put my screen unlock code as 0000 and set as 5 mins to lock the phone.

But that is becoming a headache now.

Sometime the phone behaves very unusual, it doesn't takes my code "0000", no option rather to reset the phone or remove battery and restart.

After the reset the phone works with my code (0000) but don't know when the same problem starts again.

Need Help..

Anyone solved this problem?
[HD2 General] ilordvader:
In the Att Tilt2 the power button was on Top & could close the Screen while talking on the phone

How do we do that in the HD2 cos its Off button is on the Red Call Shut button :(

Anyone

Unlock Problem

I everybody,

I have this issue aswell but even worse than everyone else. I can't unlock my device at all anymore else I do the "hold both VolUp&Down + Power Button " for reset to manufacturing settings of the cracked ROM.

any process so far or do you guys still think it's about messed up Apps?

best regards,

hanny
[HD2 General] Romo_01:
HD2 Hard Locked

Okay...so maybe Facebook is locking my HD2. It's LOCKED I'm recharging, I've attemted a soft restart, hard restart and every other restart out there...nothing is working. I even tried pushing the white button below the battery case and holding the volume up and down...I actually thought that it began to do a hard restart. It did begin but then it got stuck at the "swipe" demo. It is definitely stuck.

HELP!!!!

and i have another problem :p

how do i delete a shortcut in list "All Program"?

thank you very much :)
[Touch 3G General] azahidi:
Normally, if you cannot get connection via 3G, it's either due to the 3G network unavailability or the settings have changed (due to whatever reason, which do sometimes happen). Maybe you need to check the settings which must correspond to that set by the 3G network provider.

You can delete the program. ( settings - system - remove programs)

or if you want to retain the program, just delete the *.lnk file in directory \windows. This way you can only run the program from program directory/folder
[Touch 3G General] the wise:
the setting is correct. i have checked..

I do not know what happened, now I have not experienced this problem again

maybe it's just network problem

thanks for your help :)

yes,i already delete it from "remove program" but the shortcut still in "list program"

but, i already know the solution

delete the program's folder from "program"

thanks for advice :)

can you answer thread : "What is the newest version of touchflo that can be installed on jade?"

I couldn't believe how tiny the box was, then when I opened it I couldn't believe how absolutely huge the EVO is! It is massive, and the screen is amazing! No lag what so ever. Everything is lightning fast. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask!

no it hasnt trust me..

I have asked the other people this question but apparently it was too much to ask for..

I just want to know one thing..How is the volume on the phone during a damn phone call in say like a car with the windows down?

For me HTC has always kinda been a bit low on actual in call phone volume and many times i struggle to hear with the windows down talking on the phone.

I'm getting the phone either way but it would be nice to know.

[EVO 4G General] theoner1:
Quick question, how do you hang up the phone after each conversation if the screen is off? I don't think I see any hard call or end button like the rest of the HTC phones.
[EVO 4G General] KERKEDAGAIN:
i've been meaning to mention to ya..even if the volume is low, once the phone is rooted there's an app available that allows you to up the phones volume levels (in call, speaker, bluetooth, and even headphone jack). So there's no real worry in that regard (ps if you already have a rooted phone, check out Louder Volume Hack...i love it)
[EVO 4G General] KERKEDAGAIN:
good question, that brings into question how the proximity sensor works...something ive been wondering m'self
[EVO 4G General] Condo20t:
Just called my old phone from the Evo and the proximity sensor works just like the iphone. The screen turns off when it's next to your face and lights up when you pull it away.

Some deal-breaker questions...

How fast is text input? As fast as the iPhone?

Opening email/text?

I have the HTC Hero, and I've tried everything... it's just so slow! Especially text input!
[EVO 4G General] kyleblakepeters:
How is volume via the headphone jack? The Hero is **** compared to my old iPhone, so hopefully this was updated. PS. If anyone knows the app that increases volumes systemwide, PLEASE PM me. I know I only have 8 days left with my Hero, but I'd like to end my time with her happy. :p
[EVO 4G General] TheBiles:
Like it was already pointed out, screen turns off when you put it to your ear and comes back on when you take it away. It is extremely snappy. Pretty much instant.

I Sprint TV is the only thing that I've found to not work on wifi, and I think that is only because they want to make sure you are on Sprint's network.

From the time I opened Google Maps, 5 seconds to snap to my location on the map, 8 seconds to be exactly on my position.

Much, much faster than the Hero. Handcent and Gmail open instantly. I'm using Swype for text input, and it is also much, much faster than the Hero. The Hero is just an absolute joke in comparison to the EVO. It shouldn't even be mentioned in the same sentence.
[EVO 4G General] SilverStone641:
i have another question that probably does need to be answered by an EVO owner, but first-hand knowledge is always nice. is it a traditional headphone jack on top like the iphone? or one of those crapola mini jacks, or even worse, a usb adapter jack?

i always thought 3.5mm was the standard size, then i saw an adapter in the accessories section, so now i'm confused.:confused:
[EVO 4G General] KwestJones:

[EVO 4G General] SilverStone641:

[EVO 4G General] Medic1013:

[EVO 4G General] mjz147:
I know this sounds wayyyy out of your way..

But If their is a free version of this app it would be awesome if you could try it.

I had the hero, and am ditching it for the EVO.

The thing about the hero that pissed me off the most was the lag in the KB.

I used an app called " smart keyboard pro "

And loved it because it had an iPhone theme KB, their was no lag at all, and it had auto correction, and prediction, and sounds and vibrations.

Anyway the keys were farther apart and the Hero's on screen keyboard really felt like it had more space, I have an .apk that I purchased and saved, if you could try it, and let me know if the keyboard actually works (because of the Evo's higher screen resolution)

Anyway I have read that the HTC KB on the EVO is awesome so I will proly stick with that, but this is really cool, I reccomend you try it out.

Thanks.

Ok, just did a test call with the TV's volume way up. I had no problem hearing, but if I was talking to someone with a quieter voice I may have had a problem.
