So besides not seeing the apps anymore (and then sometimes loading themselves), does this free any space? In /system I guess? So doesn't help much in that regard.

Although I get the point, I dunno why but Amazon MP3 running all the time really bugged me, it's the first thing I nuked after installing Titanium.

Does the $9.99 data plan work for the streak? I have a grandfathered T-Zones $6.99 plan that I'm using on my iPhone right now and it works okay with the Streak. Only problem is, email doesn't go through and a few other things like a few weather widgets don't work right. I'm considering to change it to the $9.99 one for push email, notifications, etc.

I just updated to the newest Froyo release, and now TaskPanel X is not showing up in the market. I was just using it with a previous Froyo release, so it should work just fine on this release. Could someone please post a link to it here?

I like TaskPanel X the best of all of the app killers because it has the option to kill certain apps when you press the power button and put your DInc in sleep mode. Besides the app "Advanced Task Killer", does anyone know of another app that does this well?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Rjbcc58:
Based on what I've read and what I've heard others say online I wouldn't use a task killer at all. Google it, you'll find quite a bit on the subject.

What I would recommend is SystemPanel to monitor things and see if any apps actually need to be killed.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Xxq TZ pxX:
I know... I've read about how killing apps can cause system instability due to removing dependencies, etc. The main thing I use TaskPanel X for is all of the non-system apps so my phone can sleep. Can someone grab it for me please?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Novaglarion:
I also use taskpanel x. I installed it from appbrain.com. You can push apps to your phone from the website even if they aren't in the marketplace for you.

Hi, let me start by apologizing for my ignorance but ive always been in love with phones for i dont know how long and i finally have a good one specifically the evo and even though i love phones i no little about the software but i want to learn. can anyone point to the start i want to learn rooting flashing ROMs and kernels the works im not so much interested in developing but that might change once im more knowledgeable in the whole process im just some high school kid so my tech knowledge right now is pretty much zero please help i no everyone here started somewhere so can u tell me where i just want to make my phone as good as possible
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SilverZero:
Let me ask you this: What software version is on your phone right now? 2.1 or 2.2?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chucknorris2513:
im running 2.2 on my evo
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sombdy:
Take a gander at the development forum. There is a guide that was posted just a couple of days ago about rooting 2.2. Great timing for you since this method was only just discovered.

A piece of advice...after you obtain root access to your phone, be cautious about taking anymore updates from the carrier as these updates often break your root access. Every update is usually followed by a rooted version here in the forums sometimes on the same day or before.

Welcome!

Oh..and be sure to do a search in the forums for any issues you may have before posting a question to the forums. Chances are it has already been addressed...unless you enjoy getting flamed.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thom_house:

That's what Unrevoked Forever is for, I thought? But still, just because you put on a Kevlar vest doesn't mean you should go around taking shots to the chest. Hey, that rhymes! Copyright.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superlinkx:
LOL! Except we're Android people, so in the spirit of openness, I demand that you make that quote 100% free and available. (kinda like how people bash the unrevoked team about not giving away their methods...)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sombdy:
True, but wouldn't be plausible for an OTA to be released that turned the security permissions back on and plugged the exploits for rooting? That's why I just say be cautious. UF probably will work "forever" but it's no reason to be careless. Sticking with the rooted ROMs is just a safer bet.

So if you don't want to loose root, give those Sprint OTAs the boot. :p

Yeah...I'm not copyrighting that. It sucks! lol!

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rui.mamede:
I'm creating this thread based on what i read here: http://briefmobile.com/cyanogen-demonstrates-quadrants-flaws

I'd really like to know what lagfix gives me the best results and i lost my faith in quadrant. Are there any decent alternatives? Most benchmarks i know are only good for testing cpu performance...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LostAlone:
Its not fair to say that quadrant sucks, and particularly I don't like that the article seems to be implying that the lagfixes that a lot of us are running are simply artificially inflating the SGS's score. The SGS has the best harware on the market crippled by bad firmware, and tbh I think its the lag fix that has allowed the hardware to be reflected in quadrant scores.

Anyway, quadrant doesn't suck. Its not perfect, but it does help you determine for example, how different ROMs on the same device compare for performance, as well as showing off things like GPUs that often don't get seen.

However it just runs a series of tests and weights the results accordingly. Particularly, the I/O seems to be given a lot of weight and so can be nobbled to increase the score. However, as anyone who has experienced excessive lag on their SGS can attest, it also works the other way. Without the lag fix, the SGS is a very pedestrian device, as the ~1000 quadrant scores tell you, while with the fix it FLIES.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrewluecke:
Actually, some people are saying they notice no difference with the lag fixes it seems. And I've also seen forums full of people saying they can hear the difference between WASAPI/Exclusive audio and shared audio in Windows. Amazingly, out of the dozens of people trying to destroy me and demand it was implemented, none of them were willing to blind test (they were all just willing to say "it's obvious"). How many people here running the lagfix, have run any kind of blind test, or test with predictable steps to demonstrate a difference? Please, raise your hand people, because there is a huge difference between "it seems lag is gone" and "Lag is verified gone".

Quadrant is a guide, it doesn't test interactivity, and it only tests a few operations. It's similar to how a browser can pass ACID3, but have terrible compliance to new standards. Because people became so convinced of benchmarks accuracy, Nvidia and ATI started optimising for benchmarks.

Normal SSD's are also blazingly fast on benchmarks initially, but if they don't have TRIM, their performance drops significantly. That's another example of something benchmarks don't accurately test (because the testing is incomplete).

Use it to get a general idea of how the phone performs (although, specs might be more useful in some cases), but you probably need profiling and a predictable list of steps to diagnose the lag exactly. Run benchmarks which test according to the types of applications you are planning to run (if you play 3D games for instance, use a 3D game benchmark). But don't rely on them exclusively to tell you how well a device performs, because only running the applications and testing them yourselves can tell you.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rui.mamede:
But do you really think that one-click-lagix or whatever is that much faster than mimocan's one (like 2800 vs 1800)? I don't think so... :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phandroid:
*raisehand*

Predictable steps to demonstrate a difference:

1. Use 2 SGS, firmware of your choice

2. One with, say, 1 Click Lag Fix - the other one stock

3. Now for the test, perform simultaneously:

3.1. Open Market and go to "Downloads", update an app, close.

3.2. Open Contacts, quickly switch to favourites, dial Number. Drop call. Exit.

3.3. Open Messaging, conversation of your choice, quickly switch the writing language, write, send, exit.

3.4. bla bla goanforeva

Now if you don't notice an improvement there and in many other cases you most certainly have done something wrong.

If you are saying people are just being placebo-ed you are implying that everybody else besides you is unable to tell a real difference. Think about it, maybe it's the other way around.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EarlZ:
When I got my device it came with the Asian JG4 firmware I think and I used it for 48hrs as a point of reference for this so called "lag" I updated my firmware to the latest we have and found zero difference in terms of performance ( same 2 day usage ) decided to flash my device with JM5 and used it w/o a lag fix for 2 days, notice a very slight improvment on how fast the inbox/contacts can open and then did a fresh flash with lagfix 2.x installed I didnt NOT notice any performance difference but I am always open and welcome to any lagfix that is stable,safe and fast ( in that order ) right now I have JG8 installed w/o lag fix and its very snappy, I still want to install a lag fix for this even if i dont see/feel any performance difference at all.. thats just me.. Now im wondering w/c lag fix is the most stable and safe.. stability/safty > speed

EDIT:

Also I believe it could be possible that certain versions of lagfixes work better with certain versions of firmware also, its all about getting the perfect combination.. altho my question still stands on w/c is the safest lagfix heheheh
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BackfireNL:
Well actually i gave up on benchmarks.

To me the whole user experience is more important. If apps open instantly and the phone runs smooth then it's fine with me. I did notice some firmwares are better then other ones.

Right now i'm running JM1 (rev 3) with CFLagFix1.80 installed which makes the phone very stable and running smoothly so right now i'll stick to this firmware until a proper GPS fix is released or until Froyo is released.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rui.mamede:
Lol I think you didn't understand my question... I'm sure that these lag fixes all work, no doubt about that. But which of them is faster? For that i can't rely on quadrant i'm sure...
[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] drwatson1234:
Is there a chance we can port the Netflix App released for the iphone today?

I am sure that they'll release it for Android, but it would be nice in the meantime.
[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] crossix:
I don't think it would be possible to port it without first having the netflix app's source code. Plus on top of that they are two totally different operating systems with different video / audio / graphics frameworks. It would probably be easier to just write one from scratch.

Your best bet at the moment would to be just to wait until netflix releases it or to see if the blockbuster app has been ported from the droid x. While the blockbuster app sucks because you would have to pay for each movie instead of having a netflix subscription I think its the only app right now that does streaming movies :( I hope netflix gets its act together soon!
[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] pcruz:
No chance of porting it... Netflix has been actively hiring android developers, recently looking for "android video playback experts" the official app will come sooner or later.
[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] stellarhopper:
Netflix Android app got released... but its not for the Aria yet :/
[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] Shad0wguy:
I downloaded and installed the apk on my Aria running Gene Poole's most recent Liberated ROM. It installs fine and I can add to and modify my queue, but playback doesn't seem to work. It says 'Loading...' for about 5 seconds then goes back to the apps main screen.

I've attached the apk for anyone who wants to test it.

A bit of a warning though, installed the app is ~22MB. Considering our phones have ~130MB user storage that is quite a big chunk. Luckily it supports a2sd, which shrinks it down to about 16MB
[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] pcruz:

Netflix update for aria

Hey ya'll, I'm not even sure if this is in the right thread but Netflix has forced the new update on us. The new version is 1.5.2 and has a lag between the audio and video on some devices. If the older version worked great for you, and they made you update, you are free to clear data remove your current app, and try mine. All I did was edit the apk so that the aria thinks the older version IS the current version. No more "newer version of app is found, you must update to use this application" just back to the way it was. let me know if this works for you.
