I completely agree. I was excited about this phone. Picked it up at Verizon yesterday and it feels so slugish that I couldn't stand it anymore after just a few hours. This phone is going back and I'm now happily back on my Incredible sporting the new Froyo leak.

I was also very let down by the screen. The touch technology on the Incredible feels so much more responsive. It might not be the screen hardware itself though. Not sure about this but I won't have to worry about it anymore. :D

Getting rid of the bloat (root & rename pointless services and background apps) made a truly noticeable difference in performance for me. The default widgets also seem to be pretty crappy performers.
[Droid 2 General] jcsugrue:
My phone has locked up completely several times. Unfortunately, this is what I have come to expect from stock android. My Eris did it, my D1 did it, and now my D2 does it. Only before, I could actually do something about it.
[Droid 2 General] 640k:
maybe it's the apps you're using. my phones have never locked up.
[Droid 2 General] goliathvt:
You can do something about it right now. Try rooting the phone and getting rid of the bloat. If that doesn't make a difference, there are at least 2 guides on un-rooting back to factory if you discover you simply got a lemon.

My phone has yet to lock up, crash, stutter or have any major problems. Yet rooting and removing the bloat made an already good phone pretty amazing in my book.

And you can edit your build.prop to get faster UI response and other minor fixes that make the Droid 2 a little faster.
[Captivate Accessories] zaures:
OK, there have been a few different post asking about available hard cases for this phone and there seems to be very few if any that are worth having. I have been looking around at different companies trying to get some hope and came across a company out of Tucker, Ga called Case-mate. They make many different styles of cases for many different phones, even one for the Vibrant. So what I have done is posted on their feedback and product forum requesting support for the Captivate. Please if you are interested a hard case for the captivate and like what you see on their site BE PROACTIVE! Post on their site and ask for what you want, tell them what you would be interested in. Don't just leave it up to these companies to brush aside the Captivate because of lack of interest. The squeaky wheel gets the oil!

Here is the link to Case-mate's main page:

[Captivate Accessories] richierich1212:
$30? Jeez that's a 1/5th of the phone cost heh.
[Captivate Accessories] Sleeping Giant:
If it's a quality case I wouldn't mine it at all. I'd rather spend $30 on a case that I will be happy with and will last for a long time than spend $10 on a crappy case that doesn't fit right and doesn't last a month.

I'd really like to see Incase make a case for the Captivate. Their iPhone cases are awesome.
[Captivate Accessories] zaures:
Complain about paying $30 for case but when you drop your phone that one time and the screen cracks it would be a lot cheaper than paying for a new phone. Some people just don't understand that quality does always come cheap, hell an Otterbox for the iPhone 4 is $50 and I would plunk that cash down in a heartbeat for a quality case.
[Captivate Accessories] darkamikaze:
lol you're telling me D: that's almost half of what i paid for the phone! I just ebayed a rubber hardcase.. and this thing is charm! :) arrived in 2 days as well o_o. 8$

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demroger:
connect your phone to your pc, while its off hold the volume down key and switch it on, without releasing the volume down key, then it will enter bootloader mode, from dere go on your pc and reflash the rom.

if u still cant enter bootloader mode then hold the volume down key while your phone is on, when that chucky rom screen comes up just press the red reset button which is located at the back of your phone, u need to remove the back cover to see it, so u press the reset button while holding the volume down key and wait til the bootloader screen appears, then you can just reflash your rom, thats what i done

[HD Mini General] rayleterleir:
Hi all,

I have finally managed to flash a ship ROM onto my device, and using OsKitchen, i'm getting the hang of cooking my own custom ROMs. I attempted to remove all of the HTC apps and SenseUI last night, and did rather well, except I may have removed a bit much as the fonts went odd. Basically, I want a "vanilla" WinMob ROM for my phone, without all the extra HTC stuff. Is it possible to grab a generic WinMob ROM and add the drivers in for my hardware, or does anybody have a method for removing the HTC stuff successfully from a ship ROM? I really don't like the HTC stuff, and would like a vanilla WinMob 6.5 experience.
[HD Mini General] bart3385:
HTC Sense UI, while magically enchanting your eyes, can be a real pain to use. Very unstable and buggy.

Unmodified, it already froze my phone twice. And i mean perpetual busy mode kind of thing. Taking out the battery won't cure it. You won't be able to restart it anyway. (It just freeze somewhere in the middle of start up. Perpetually showing the busy icon.) Only solution is hard-reset, using the volume buttons in conjuction with the power button. Needless to say, you lose all your data.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aladar42:
Hey!

Just watned to ask, can't underclocking possibly damage my CPU in some way? I'd like my phone to be alive as long as possible, so I thought I could underclock it to around 700MHz and to minimum when screen off.. but won't it damage it in any way?

Thanks
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kinma:
No, it will not damage the CPU.

Actually, because the CPU will not get as hot as with overclocking, underclocking might extent the live of your phone.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] !PANDA:
yep thats true, also, if you are underclocking for the screen off profile, why not go right down to 245mhz? I did, and the battery life was MUCH better!

hope this helps! good luck !
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kinma:
Indeed. I do the same thing and this does wonders for the battery life!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyuk:
yeah sleep profile of 245-245 battery life is about 12 hours better at least.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lee815:

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Grandmstramrod:

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomit12:
FML.

I have a stock, unrooted 2.2 Evo, with the latest PRL and all that goodness.

For like a week now, the best I've been able to get speed-wise is about 0.2mb, either on the phone itself, or tethered, wirelessly through the hotspot or via USB. When I first got the phone, I'd get anywhere from 1.5 to 2.0 pretty consistently.

I tried everything I could find to do (resetting, re-provisioning, etc), and nothing worked. So, today I take the phone into a Sprint repair store. They have it for about an hour, and when they give it back, its cranking out 1.5mb again. They said they "hard reset" it. I thought that was basically what you're doing when you do the whole power + vol up/down thing and clear the storage to reset the phone, which I've done, several times.

Anyway, I get the phone home, I try the xtreme labs speedtest... still working great. I then realize that I gave them my wrong gmail, and of course the only way to delete the google account, even if you enter another one along side it, is to wipe the phone. Power + vol down, clear storage, reboot, enter info...

Back to 0.1-0.2 speeds.

Is a hard reset actually something else? I can't imagine that just resetting the user info to put in a different email would have had some effect on MASSIVELY nerfing the speeds, yet it did.

Any ideas?

ARG.

I'm not running the stock rom so can't tell you specifically where it is, but there is a factory reset in the settings that will revert the phone to factory default.
[TG01 ROM Development] drkdeath5000:
I've been reading up on cooking ROM's and with the help of leeston i managed to create a basic ROM earlier in the week. After searching for guides / tutorials on this stuff im really not that much the wiser, i cant seem to find anything that explains it well enough, there always missing details. The actual cooking process seems fairly straightforward but its those extra bits im missing ie

how do i add my own packages - am i right in just copying them to the SYS folder or is there more to it ?

how do i edit the registry - I know how to edit the registry once the ROM is loaded onto my phone but how do i do it from the ROM without the phone ?

how do i add things to the start menu - When i add packages to the SYS folder and load the ROM into my phone the shortcuts dont seem to be in my start menu

how do i add sense - i've loaded the packages but it never starts and theres no sense option in today settings

im new to this so as you'd imagine the questions i have are endless ...

Im sure most of this info is on XDA already somewhere but i just cant find it, maybe im searching for the wrong term or something.

Any help from the chef's would be great, perhaps you could provide links to tutorials / info you've used when learning to cook. Im sure this stuff would be useful to everyone and may even encourage more to have a go at cooking :-).
[TG01 ROM Development] leeston2379:
I am still new to cooking but I'll tell you what i believe to be correct.

1.Yes. To add a package to a rom you put the package into the SYS folder.

However be aware that the kitchen used for the TG01 cannot handle EXT (visual) packages, only OEM (old) packages can be used. Use Totalfires package converter to convert between the 2 types.

The above info is not strictly true but is what you need to know when cooking for the TG and i don't have the time or knowledge to write a complete tutorial.

2. Editing the registry is all to do with .RGU files, you can create a package with a new one in or edit the existing ones within the packages in the SYS folder. You can edit them with notepad but i suggest using Notepad2.

Once you open an .RGU file you should recognize the reg key text in the file and edit it accordingly. As far as i am aware the file MUST have REGEDIT4 in the first line and an empty line at the bottom in order to work. Another way is to edit the regkey on your device then export the regkey using resco or something similar, then rename the resulting file from .reg to .rgu then open it in note pad and copy and paste it into another packages .rgu file, or create a custom package for that .rgu file.

The registry can also be modified using cab files during autorun, but this can be a little messy as the cab can be uninstalled by the end user causing problems.

3. To do this you need to edit the initflashs.txt file within the . This can be done manually or with one of the many package tools available on this site. The one i use is below, it does the hardwork for you, you click a few options and it edits the required files as needed.

4. Sense is a funny one. You should just need to add all the required packages to the SYS folder and away it goes. Unfortunately this is rarely the case. It should just a case of making sure all the sense packages are there, including its many dependencies. Sense is one of my weaker areas so maybe some one else has better advice.

Hope this is useful.:)

Hi my friend, I have a problem to cook a ROM with cab which required a reboot or witch have a information message ( SWYPE or GPSMOdDriver for example)

Do you know a solution for this please?

Thanks in advance.
[TG01 ROM Development] drkdeath5000:
Thanks for the info leeston and miro ;-). I havent had time to try it yet but will be over weekend and im almost sure now i know where to find the registry files ill be able to cook something decent up since that was my main problem. Thanks again for the help.

I may be wrong but when the cab files are first installed doesnt it automatically reboot ? If not you can always do a manual reboot ;-).

I've tried everything to get sense working but im just having no luck ... copied the packages to the sys folder, flashes fine, boots fine but no sense and now theres no setting shortcut in the start menu ?

Thanks again
[TG01 ROM Development] EVEALEX62:
I have try to delete the line "Reboot" after autocabinstall but nothing change the phone always reboot ... I think the only thing is to do OEM package...

I have test with many cabs but nothing works same as you with Sense ...

Have you found solutions ?:confused:
[TG01 ROM Development] leeston2379:
The solutoin is to use autorun instead of cabinstl, you can then write a custom script to handle the input required by the cab.

However this is above my head, and i couldn't get autorun to work. FFBOY knows how but i doubt you will get his help as he doesn't seem to check any threads other than his own rom threads, and if he does his responces are few and far between.
[TG01 ROM Development] leeston2379:
Those are the packages i used and they work so it's not the packages, but i cheated and dumped a sense rom then modified it. I don't have time to try and work out how to do it properly unfortunatley.
[TG01 ROM Development] drkdeath5000:
Well atleast i know the packages are fine, i was starting to wonder if that was the problem :p. Theres some satisfaction in doing it yourself but like miro said i think its just too much for me, ill give it another go later in the week and if that fails ill just dump a sense rom like you did ... if there was just a tutorial on installing sense packages etc id be fine, with sense being so popular you'd think there to be loads of tuts.

I've never posted but I can't figure this out. I searched Google but the only sense roms I found were from February. In xda-nexus-development there are a bunch of themes stock roms, but I don't see any full sense roms. I remember when I had the g1 and the sense roms were slow but everything except Bluetooth worked. I'm sure by now there's a Rom that pretty much makes my nexus into a desire, I really want to try out full sense. But I can't find one anywhere. I know the question sounds dumb but ive seriously looked, I even downloaded Rom manager and looked through its lost. I know it exists because it existed for the g1 and the nexus blows the g1 away.

Not all that helpful, but here's a few tips ronjeremy. Use the advanced search, you can narrow your search out with it (choose only the forum sections you need). Second, look in the development section, you usually find all roms there.

can you link me to "the sense rom thread"? I believe you that it exists, but it must not have the word in the title because when i searched on google, i found "sense" roms that were very old, when i searched this forum there was 1 thread with the word "sense" in it, none with the word "desire". No Bull****. So I dont know what to tell you, maybe i should look in every rom post and if there arent screen pics maybe i should flash every rom? Because its definitely a lot faster to post a question than open every single rom thread.

Just head into the right forum, hit CONTROL+F and search for "sense" or "desire." Even without searching, I can see TWO sense rom threads within the first page of the appropriate forum.

And when you search in the forum, just search for titles only and just search for "sense" or "desire" in the right forum.
