i would like to say first of all liberated is a great piece of work but honestly runs like a slow piece of **** my linpack and quadrant scores were pitiful

i chose cm bc it literally does absolutely everything i will ever need ever, gps takes a minute sometimes but thats the only complaint

i am running 3.5 overclock at 844mhz and im using 9/13 nightly i have not had a single lockup, freeze issue, random reboot, nothing, bluetooth works wifi is smoking and speed test gives me 3megs a second 3g

not to mention im pulling linpack scores of 9.8 and quadrant 1144

360 screen rotation

tethering,livewallpapers,battery life is amazing(try temp monitor it forces battery data and kills real time monitoring SAVES ALOT OF POWER)

the list goes on and on

and for flash well the youtube app works what else do you really need

im running launcher pro 2 so my interface looks like sense , yeah the contacts are a bit different, but for all the cm haters try launcher pro 2 and read how to create any dock you could ever want , you could use literally any picture and make it your dock and also get desktop visualizer you can fully customize everything

so the only thing missing in my opinion is flash (atleast with my setup, cm version oc etc....)

heres a start

and the sense clock try fancey widgets
[HTC Aria General] Flixoman:
I have not busted out on Cyanogen b/c of no "flash" support. I thought that meant no YouTube playing. I can live w/o flash (even gimpflash), but YouTube is a must. That being said, I have been lazy and running liberated r10 and love it.

If cy can do YouTube then I might as well give it a shot.
[HTC Aria General] Troggie:
YouTube works on CM6 just fine.
[HTC Aria General] cjperone:
Cm6. Period.
[HTC Aria General] tpbklake:
I must admit I was reluctant to give up HTC Sense for CM 6 and stock Froyo 2.2, but this week I took the time to actually get CM6 set up with all my apps and now I'm sold.

The features that I thought I would miss the most with Sense aren't really a factor any more. I prefer the cleaner look of Froyo 2.2 and the ability to configure ADW to the look and feel of Sense.

The only reason I'm looking forward to the official HTC Sense Froyo 2.2 release is so that the 2.2 kernel can be rolled into a new CM6 release down the road. Until then I'll just stay the course with CM6.

Regards,

Tom

I love cm but use liberated to connect to my exchange server. As soon as the exchange issues I have are resolved, cm stays on the phone for good.
[HTC Aria General] :
Yeah, I'm still back and forth (flashed back to cm nightly #69 last night) and haven't noticed yet, but Exchange issues have been the deal breaker for me and CM6 in the past. Not to mention you still can't move mesages (not a cyanogen problem).

I know touchdown is available, but I don't want to pay $20 and it duplicates way too many features for me. I just want a solid exchange mail client.
[HTC Aria General] maevro:
I too missed HTC Sense and made a sort of hybrid ROM where I was getting HSDPA, not just UMTS. It was 2.1 but had no AT&T apps of any sort and some extra apps.

I was bored on the subway and installed CM6 and I am pretty happy. I have it to where I really don't miss Sense. I do miss HTC weather and calendar.

I am curious to see an official Froyo update for this phone and then get rid of the AT&T software.

As for battery, I don't know which ROM holds the best charge. When I put a new ROM on, I play with it and that kills the battery. So far I think its CM6.

Either way, I have to admit. I am still pretty happy with this phone. I dont need a 1GHz processor or a 4" screen. Its light, nice amount of memory and I love HTC.
[HTC Aria General] rlubinsk:
CM6, because it will connects to the T-Mobile network successfully and Liberated doesn't (stock doesn't either). I'd love to find out why this is; please respond to me if you know!
[HTC Aria General] regentswift:
I'm a fan of Liberated, because I do enjoy the SenseUI eye candy. :)
[HTC Aria General] seanzscreams:
with all that eye candy and no overclock what are your linpack or quadrant scores just curious
[HTC Aria General] :
I know my linpack scores run around 4 or so. I think linpack is way overrated and a lot of people seem obsessed with letting that number determine what ROM they should be happy with. I've seen some OC kernels floating around here that will bump your linpack scores up a bit but the gpu performance sucks... yet people continue to run them anyway because of that magic number. To each his own. Not against linpack in general, as it helps me monitor differences varying tweaks make...so I can determine if I'm headed in the right direction.
[HTC Aria General] seanzscreams:
im just curious bc i have only tried liberated r5 have you tried quadrant its probably the most in depth benchmark out there , linpack is really just a number for sure but its also a good basis , i know when my phone flies like an iphone and makes people sad they have one running cm the linpack is 9.78 and in quadrant is 1176 and on liberated it was 5.15 and 800
[HTC Aria General] dacrannis:
where is the speed?? cm 6 for me is really slow and the reason i keep going back to liberated. I want to use cm6, but too slow.
[HTC Aria General] SoCalHTCFuze:
Liked CM but stability pulled me back. Once stable, will return. Liberated for me (R012) now. Stable, long battery life, Market doesn't hide apps, never locks up or gets slow, tethering, sideloading apps, etc...

Looking forward to 2.2!
[HTC Aria General] tleung11:
Just tried both.

I like Cyanogen so much, so fast, also like the camera. But I miss the HTC dialer (most important for me as it's still a phone), the search function is so useful and if I find a replacement then I will go for it.
[HTC Aria General] MythicBlue:
actually you CAN have live wallpapers on liberated... i do and they work perfect
[HTC Aria General] Tom5304:
The answer to the question: "Liberated or Cyanogen" is... BOTH!

I do still like the Sense interface over the "stock" 2.2 in CM6. Sense just looks a little better and fits together a little better.

Attn1 mentioned how he dislikes the Sense dialer because there are way too many options and click boxes that come up when you bring up the Sense dialer. Yes, the Sense dialer interface is fugly, and I really don't like the way the dialer takes up 2/3 of the screen, and there is this little sliver of contacts still visible at the top. If I want to view my contacts, I'll go to my contacts. If I want to dial a number, I'd rather just have the dialer.

However, one big advantage to the Sense dialer and contacts for me is that Sense has a black-on-white text layout, whereas CM6 has a white-on-black layout. For whatever reason, white text on a black background has always just made my eyes bleed.

I like how CM6 blacks out the menu lights when you're watching a video. Liberated still has the lights on, which can be a little annoying or distracting.

There are probably a dozen or more little distinctions between Liberated and CM6, but the bottom line for me is that I could live easily with either one. Since I have both, though, I'll probably keep switching between the two every few weeks, just to keep things interesting. Doing a Rom Mangager backup makes this switching very easy.

In a bit of an Ayn Rand moment, I want to thank all of the people who labor over these ROMs and make things work, because I have zero ability or interest in coding or hacking. I'm definitely a consumer of Liberated and CM6, and not a developer, so again I want to thank everyone who does the work in order for guys like me to fool around with fun technology. Your work is appreciated.
[HTC Aria General] :
Using launcher pro and CM6 #86 Nightly at the moment. This phone smokes my coworker's captivate. You can run linpacks all you want...but that does nothing when comparing the smooth snappiness of this phone compared to his.
[HTC Aria General] lilhaiti:
Yes I will agree that CM6 is very snappy when compared to some of the 1ghz phones. but where I do see a little difference in when scrolling through Dialer One call logs or Handcent conversation lists. When compared to my friend's Incredible, his scrolls very smoothly and mine is a little choppy. Other than that I can't see much of a difference between the two. I can't wait to see how the phone will run with a proper 2.2 kernel.

Liberated is nice, but I am not a fan of the Sense interface and I don't like the fact that you can't change the Dock or get rid of the Homescreen if you want to use another.
[HTC Aria General] Peowraaku:
this aria is my first android phone. i got it right at launch and was very happy with the stock ROM until I rooted it a week or so ago. i ran liberated, and was very happy to be able to tether and install swype. immediately after settling into liberated, i backed it up (nandroid, clockwork are f*** genius) and tried CM6. I wasn't really digging it because i didn't take the time to set it up. anyway, i got restless and tried CM6 again yesterday. i ended up spending all evening playing with all the settings in ADW and others. this is what i really used to LOVE about playing with linux/open source stuff: just poking around and getting EXACTLY what i want. i found beautiful widgets to be an excellent replacement for the main Sense widget with clock and weather. I also found a widget called batterylife that looks similar to the Sense battery widget and I like it better.

my observation, after playing a lot with both, is that the contacts app is noticeably faster to open in CM6 than Sense. This is the one thing I really HATED about Sense. That app also feels bloated and inefficient from a usability standpoint with several line items for each contact (call #/txt # for each # stored...) Other than that, I LOVED sense. Now, in CM6, I notice the phone is slower to turn on the screen at the push of the power button. When I had liberated, side by side with an iPhone4 mine would power on to lock screen faster. That would put a smile on any Apple hater's face. :) With CM6 I fear it would be the same or slower. I have no issues with speed in CM6 once it is unlocked, though. I also would prefer Sense's swipe down to unlock instead of the little button swiping sideways, but that's not a big deal.

My conclusion is if you love tinkering (especially if you're accustomed to being able to tinker in your PC OS) then CM6 is for you. Otherwise run Liberated. my 2 cents as a noob here. hopefully helpful to other noobs.:)
[HTC Aria General] tpbklake:
I'm running the nightly build from 9/29 and that version allows you to wake and unlock the Aria by depressing the optical control instead of waking with the power button and swiping to unlock. You should give that a try.

Regards,

Tom
[Desire General] ecitron:
Hi all,

I have my new desire for almost a week now. I am trying to unlock it (it's locked to telus). I have tried many website (mobileincanada, cellunlock....) but they still answer me that the didn't receive the codes for ''new'' Desires.

I didnt ask a refund from cellunlock because he told me that if he doesnt have it, no one else will have it...so I'd better wait (1-3 buisness days) ... after 3 buisness days... they still don't have it.

I've spoken to an other admin from htccode dot com ...and they can 'give it a try'...because they have acess to ''all' databases. I'm not into asking a refund from cellunlock and be stucked again with htccode. :mad:

Can someone explain me the theory of 'new databases' Vs 'old databases' ?

How do these buisness work? How can they have to htc databases... why HTC give them access? :confused:

Hopefully I will find someone here who's in my situation and will try to help out.

Thanks fellas.

PS: I'm form montreal Canada...the cell is locked for telus...and I want to use it with fido (rogers)
[Desire General] mercurycc:
I got a unlock code from cellunlock around a month ago, 10 minutes after I paid. Guess you just have to wait.
[Desire General] ecitron:
Finally got it from cellunlock! It took a week...but they delivered. Sometimes...you just have to wait for HTC to update their database.

If highly recommend cellunlock. Trully professional. We exchange ~10 mails... They have an awesome support...and respond very fast.

Will defintetly work with them again.

Recently started getting this warning that prevents me from using my camera app.

I'm running the captivate's stock camera app on the leaked vibrant T959UVJI2 firmware. I wasn't having any issues until a few days ago, so I'm not exactly sure what caused the problem.

Thanks in advance.

UPDATE:

I checked to see if another app was the culprit and ended active services one by one and found out that tasker was causing the problem.

Turns out it was one of my profiles. Deleted it, everything is fine now.

Thanks for the help :)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kwbdc:
Did you try to flash the stock camera back?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ^Fs:
I did flash it back but it didn't fix the problem.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hkfan:
did you tried to update the camera firmware from service menu ?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Justindawg1506:
I just got my captivate yesterday and I've been having the same problem. Sometimes the camera works, sometimes it doesn't. It will occasionally just show a blank green screen. I checked my running services and all I have running while camera is up is omadrmconfig service,htc_ime mod snsservice, and backservice. If I can't find a solution I might just unroot and factory reset.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ^Fs:
I'm certain its an application interfering with it.

I've read about other people having these issues with Fring and Goggles.

Try uninstalling applications that use the camera to start and reboot your phone.

If that doesn't work perhaps doing a factory reset isn't a bad idea.

The root shouldn't be an issue.

Good luck :)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Justindawg1506:
Tried un-rooting and then factory resetting and even tried installing the camera people are using for the vibrant. Not really sure what to do It feels like I'm playing camera roulette with this phone because it works about 5% of the time. Luckily the guy I bought it from has the warranty papers...probably sold it to me knowing it was faulty :mad:
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tuvazeock:
Solved?

I just recently started having problems with my camera. Same thing that is described here. You say it was one of your profiles. Profile for what exactly? I have reset it back to factory. Camera still didn't work. I have updated camera firmware. Still nothing.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] valderdark:
solved!

I had this particular issue but finaly made it work and a different way , I clear the cache video application then reboot and thats it and done:D:D:D
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bhlvoong:
My phone fails constantly as well, almost 100% of the time. However, there is a trick that gets the phone working again, albeit temporarily:

- Press hard on the lens of the camera with your thumb, in a smudging motion until the screen, in my case, turns from black to actual picture. Try to snap a pic. If this fails, keep pressing on the lens and try again. Eventually the camera fail message goes away. Most of the time this trick will work but sometimes it'll never work either.

Note that if your speaker fails, pressing it hard will make it work as well. Something is screwy with the casing or build of these phones, signs of a cheap product. This will be my last samsung product to say the least.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ^Fs:
sounds like you should send it back to the manufacturer
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] josephh71:
worked on my galaxy s4

Thanks. This trick totally worked. ..
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaifar:
A lot of solution i tried...atlast just pressed the lenses medium hard and worked...

Though its logic-less try for an inexperienced users but damn it worked...just pressed ...lolz

:good:;)
[Windows Phone 7 General] RustyGrom:
Paul Thurrott says so. http://windowsphonesecrets.com/2010/09/26/windows-phone-us-launch-is-november-8/

He tends to be rather connected so I'm inclined to think that date is legit. It just seems insane to me that Microsoft would launch in Europe first (of course assuming the October 21st date there is accurate).
[Windows Phone 7 General] qipengart:
Ugh, that's one month after my birthday. I want earlier now.
[Windows Phone 7 General] theomni:
I find it bull that Europe will get WP7 before we do.

But I'm still keeping my fingers crossed for October.

Regardless, I won't be actually biying a phone until later this year in early December so it won't make much of a difference to me.

[Fascinate Android Development] scottishwarrior:
You can watch for Frostman89 here on xda, he is currently working on deodexing the stock rom. And namebrandon and dirrk on android central. You might go to freenode.net in the #samsung-fascinate chat as that is where most of the dev's are working out issues.
[Fascinate Android Development] frostman89:
Lol I already deodex'ed it a few days ago. Now I need someone who has applied the DI01 full update to test a flashable clockwork zip but I can't find anyone at the moment heh.

I'll gladly test it, too.
[Fascinate Android Development] sic4672:
you can also follow @koush on twitter since he will be porting CM6 to the fascinate. I wouldn't expect frequent direct updates about the fascinate since the guys has like 20 projects going at the same time, but it's a good place for info.
[Fascinate Android Development] mastamoon:
I would like a good list also.. My twitter is still full of blackberry hybrid'ers and alike. Need some android news makers on there.
[Fascinate Android Development] sic4672:

@cyanogen

@clockworkmod

@ang3l12

are all in my list.
[Fascinate Android Development] Irishpride:
Thanks for the response everyone, I've actually been following Koush since my Droid1 days and yesterday started following frostman89.

To answer your question magicriggs, I really liked the DX, just hated the locked down bootloader and wanted some more freedom to do what I wanted. Having said that, I'm really glad I got the Fascinate, that screen is amazing and it's much smoother than the DX.

Hi

I tried to search but could not find anything I need to know if an app can use internet constantly in the background. Or which IP address I have been accessing for a long period of time.

The reason for asking is my phone apparently used 1.54GB of data in 8.4 hours in the middle of night when I was sleeping. I have 3G Watchdog which is telling me that I have been using it so it’s not something that my provider has made up.

This is what happened :mad:

Any help would be appriciated.

Thanks

You might want to try TrafficInfo from CurveFish, it will show you how much data is sent and received by application, thus you'll find out which applicatiion uses excessive data connection.
[Epic 4G General] Muckrak3r:
Okay, I rooted to help clear up memory on my Epic 4G so it would run faster and I could do what I wanted.

Prior to root, I had 70-100mb of free Ram according to Taskiller. After rooting, it is ALWAYS at 55mb free. Doesn't seem to matter what apps I keep or delete.

What I am looking for is advice to keep the Droid rocking, running smooth, and running the way I want it to. Suggestions on apps, etc. would be greatly appreciated.

Again, I'm a root noob so take it easy.
[Epic 4G General] Dameon87:
You need to remember that RAM is only proportional to applications that are actually RUNNING. It has nothing to do with those that are merely installed.
[Epic 4G General] jbadboy2007:
also things loaded in ram make those things load faster as it is memory of the apps you load the most. someone said that unused ram is wasted ram. so i wouldnt be so worried as to how much ram you have loaded this is different from a pc to where a pc gets bogged down from to much in ram.
[Epic 4G General] RRexA3:
What he meant was this is different from a PC running Windows and RAM is depleted - In a Linux enviroment RAM is essentially recycled and capable of longer periods of continuous up time. Hence the dominance of Unix/Linux boxes chosen for server enviroments.

So lately Ive noticed alot of time I send picture messages to people it says they cant recieve them. Some people with other Droids can get them and Blackberry users also have no problem.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DrewDanger:
Im using totally stock and non-rooted phone. Still gives me issues
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeknoTurd:
MMS has always been a challenge for me with this phone. When I first got it I was able to send MMS to anyone with the exception of iPhone users using most messaging application I tried. To send MMS to iPhone users I had to use the stock messaging application (not Handcent, etc.) and also enter text into the text field, or else it would fail. After I upgraded to 2.2 I noticed that more often than not my MMS were failing regardless of the device I was sending it to and what application I used. This problem seems to be specific to the Incredible and is quite frustrating. Any info or knowledge on the subject would be GREATLY appreciated!

i am currently trying to create an app for android 1.6 and i am new to creating applications so be gentle lol. a major problem for those on 1.6 still like people with a G1 have very limited space available for apps, i see that apps to sd in 2.1 could be very useful if it were an app in its self as opossed to being a part of the os. cyanogen and their team of wizards have created a custom rom but what if you are new to this and flashing is either to hard or to risky for someone to perform? as i said i am new to this and could use a bit of help. i want to remove appstosd portion of a custom rom and use it as an app in itself. is that possible? someone please contact me about this if your interested in helping me develop something like this. we can share ideas via email and possibly work together to make those with outdated phones a bit happier with there less fortunate hardware.
