[Captivate Android Development] Dani897:
you can remove this unless anyone else wants an unstable buggy kernel.

what ever they did with the clocks, 1.6 ghz or not doesnt like my phone. i thought i bricked after moving files from my computer to the phone i went to un mout and it froze. restarted and i had lines running across the vibrant splash screen and it was frozen. i tried recovery mode and got the splash screen. tried download and got a black sreen (i almost cried) fortunately odin could still see the phone. somehow the image file was corrupted, halfway through the restore it showed up.

warning to all wanting to try this it wont work on every phone! micro chips are sensitive devices, as perfect as they try to make them there is inconsistantcy however slight and some chips can vastly out perform others or the same model.

i am however curious about how the benckmarks got so high without 1.6ghz? you may be able to misrepot a clock mode but in a benchmark you still have to perform the calculations. i understand that the linpack score was always well below other 1ghz chips but it was also well above stock and very near what you would expect from a 60% overclock. im at a loss here, did they stumble on an optimization? i know snapdragons with froyo can get 30-40+ in linpack with no mods so it is possible it was never at 1.6 but im not sure.

the assumption that quadrant score should scale to 1300 is a bad one, a cpu overclock doesn't effect memory banbwidth or file system i/o. unless the wole system was 60% oc the quadrant score sould be far from scaled. the assumption that any score should scale is a bad one but the linpack score should be fairly close to scaled and it is.

well what ever they come up with in project core if the benchmarks are goods and it is stable ill try it. i hope froyo source is released soon, because if they can get linpack increases like they did with the manhatten project we can finally have a respectable linpack score of about 21! then we'd certainly have a monster with our supirior gpu. then i wont want a g2 so bad. (not that i dont love my captivate)
[Captivate Android Development] shep211:
He is right the phone is not running at 1.6 ghz. Once they figured it out they canceled the project.

Here's how Viralblack explained it in the Project Manhattan thread:

"Imagine if you were running at 10MPH, and while you were running time slowed down but the slowdown didnt effect you. So youre still running at 10MPH but to the rest of the slowed down world, now youre running at 15MPH, even though your speed and direction havent changed.

The changes in the code for one reason or another arent playing nice with the Android system. Instead of pushing the clock up, in most cases, what its doing is simply slowing the internal clock down to the tune of about 30%. This is what is actually providing the benchmark gains that were being recorded, not an actual gain."

So its slowing the phones internal clock down not speeding it up. Thats why its causes these bugs.

High fps readings yet things look visually slow or laggy

Weak vibration occasionally

Animations out of sync or running slow

I cleaned up the thread. I know things can get heated at times but lets try to be respectful to everyone even if they do not agree with your opinion.
[Captivate Android Development] TheTodFather:
i liked my "modified quote I had changed up... it was funny". I kinda liked all the mess cause it was like 10 against 1 and it looked pretty ugly, but i made it. However i was definately taking some low blows there. OUCH! :( An apology would of been nice but after all that drama i feel cheated out of an appology. So i'll take the low road and say.. Ha ha suckers I was right! :cool: (cue the benny hill show theme music). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MK6TXMsvgQg

edit

After more thought, I feel the low road is exactly that... The low road! so lets all slap each other on the buttocks and and say good game to each other and then pretend to go to a bar and share some stories and a few brews. You guys like popsicles? I got a whole bunch of em' down in the cellar. hehe

I hope we all good.

Wow shep didn't release you where a mod till just now! I was wondering why you said you cleaned up the thread. --- peace!
[Captivate Android Development] newter55:
Todfather,

I slept through whatever went on after I made my comments last night, I was not trying to get into a heated argument. A discussion yes, in which I would have undoubtedly learned something. Woke up this afternoon to see thread cleaned up. So not sure what all went on. I will apologize to shep as I apparently started or was heavily involved in causing him to have to delete posts.

I enjoy these forums and learn from you guys every day and even occasionally am able to help out others.

No grudge, ill will, or hard/hurt feelings here. And by the way, I prefer the cherry or grape... ;)

I'm curious if anyone has tried this or if it would even be possible/safe?

I basically want to buy a Touch Pro 2 2150mah battery and use it for my EVO.

if it would work can the EVO even recognize a battery over 1500mah? i've heard it has problems with larger mah batteries.

thoughts? ideas?

discuss.

I am totally jealous of the photo gallery app on Galaxy S phones. The Droid X gallery is horribly slow and clunky. Could zooming in and out be any worse?

Is there a way to replace it with the Galaxy S app or a 3rd party alternative?
[Droid X Themes and Apps] SplicedX:
I use Gallery3DMT.apk It's very smooth and works quite well on the X. I believe it's from the nexus. Just be sure to scroll through your pic folders slowly the first time you open it so that it can cache the pics properly for fast loading in the future. Hope this helps.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] adrianblack:
This app is decent. It's def. the Nexus One app as it ties into my Piccasa account. It's better but still not great. Surprised there aren't better alternatives out there that are faster.

Also ....... wish I could remove the stock Gallery app which blows. Seems if I try to launch the camera from Gallery3DMT.apk it FCs.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] kameleongt:
I use the WJDgallerymod takes the background pic from the gallery off to load up a tad quicker. other than that it does load quite slow.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] kameleongt:
here is a link to that, maybe it will help in the slowness. GL

[Droid X Themes and Apps] adrianblack:
It's not even the slowness on that screen that bothers me. The pinch to zoom and scrolling it so pathetic. If a 1st gen iPhone can do it butter smooth, why not a 1ghz Android phone released in 2010?

I was wondering if anyone knows of a way to delete text messages through the PC? I have a single thread of messages that is 4500 texts long, and when it opens up it takes for ever. its my Girlfriend, shes a textaholic
[HTC Aria General] nuds:
I feel your pain. But I don't think there is a way to do it on the computer. Just press and hold your finger on the box before you enter the thread and there should be an option called "Delete Thread". Hope this works.
[HTC Aria General] cegna09:
in the settings menu for messages there is a setting for "delete old messages" which will limit threads to a certain length and delete old ones. set a limit and it will auto delete for you.

[Windows Mobile Software Development] UMBRA9:
Hi there.

So I'm currently aware that you can use your PC as a handsfree for your mobile phone if you connect your phone to your PC via Bluetooth and use WIDCOMM stack to run the connection. However, I am hoping there is a way that this same thing can be done via USB. I have a headset connected via USB and my phone connected via USB [cradle] .

Any help is greatly appreciated as I do not want to have to get a bluetooth dongle.

Cheers.

I like the G2 only its to bulky for my taste so I'm taking it back and getting my touch 4g.
[G2 and Desire Z General] LickTheEnvelope:
Thanks for sharing.
[G2 and Desire Z General] dragginblazer:
Same here. G2 is nice but it has its issues. I loved the G1 keyboard and couldn't stand trying to type on the screen but with the G2 its the other way around.
[G2 and Desire Z General] mcp2009:
I'm not trying to be rude at all but why do we care? We always see threads where people tell us that their dropping their G2 because its not for them, it has bugs, and I believe there's another thread discussing who's dropping their G2 for the myTouch. I love my G2 and it may have some bugs but nothing too big or hardware related like my Nexus had with multitouch and the radio. Again I don't mean to flame you or anything I just don't think its necessary to make a thread to tell us that your dropping your G2. Sad to see someone dislike this great phone but the only time I'll really care is if cyanogen or enomther gets rid of their G2

[G2 and Desire Z General] luis86dr:
What you think the mytouch will be bug free? All phones come with trials and errors. Your only going to get yourself into a phone with errors as well yet the only difference is you'll have to wait longer to get them fixed since it was just released compared to the g2 which is soon to come. Not bashing just given my 2 cents

[G2 and Desire Z General] allthrottle:
If you have a g2 now, I'd hang onto it until after the mytouch 4g has been out for a week or two. Every phone released to date has had issues.

If it's just a bulk thing, I hear you. That's THE only thing holding me back from one. There's no guarantee the mytouch will be all that great though, so you may end up regretting trading your great phone for a mediocre one.
[G2 and Desire Z General] xdviper:
I am also considering going to the mytouch as well. I'm on my second G2 and losing signal thing is too much and too random.

[G2 and Desire Z General] ericc191:
Only in the G2 forums..

To OP, It looks like a pretty good phone, just be aware that you might be stuck with Espresso. It might have the same issues when trying to root.
[G2 and Desire Z General] cparekh:
I played with the MTHD at the T-Mobile store, as one the workers had one. It's thinner, and has a front-facing camera. It's quite heavy, but not as heavy as the G2. It feels solidly built.

The guy was pushing the wifi calling and mobile hotspot. I believe (my supposition) the G2 will get wifi calling, and I can do mobile hotspot with the temp root. So, the only things I would not get are the front-facing camera and the thinner form factor.

On the negative side, the MTHD has Sense, and if I hate that, it would really suck. At least I've been using AOSP for some time now, and I know I like that. So, I probably won't switch, but if form factor is a big deal (or FFC), then people should switch, I think.

Guess he needs to switch back now. MTHD is a great phone, I wished that the G2 had the FFC but oh well... I'll live without it. Not like everyone's going to start Fring'n each other... and if they do...

[G2 and Desire Z General] MantisFang:
Have fun with your downgrade bro!
[G2 and Desire Z General] grex49:
That right!!:p
[G2 and Desire Z General] AKSnoopy:
I have the same issue with the G2. I waited to upgrade from my G1 until a solid device came out with a QWERTY keyboard because I felt so awkward typing on screen on the G1 (and even with other devices including my boyfriend's Incredible). Now, with the addition of Swype and the improved stock keyboard (which was non-existent initially on the G1) it seems almost easier to type. I also keep forgetting in order to slide out the keyboard you have to hold the phone differently than with the G1. xD Anyway, along with not have a permanent root option and no Sense (I actually like it over stock), it hardly seems worth keeping when I can get the MT4G with FFC and Sense and hopefully the ability to root (I'm not holding my breath). We also assume that TMobile will quickly sent OTA updates for the G2 just because it runs stock Android, but look at how long any updates have taken for devices including the G1. I think they will give more attention to the more popular devices like the MyTouch line and the MT4G will get quicker updates.
[G2 and Desire Z General] mcp2009:
I strongly doubt that, even if it is their flagship phone it still runs a version of sense so it would probably take longer to make the update and you forget that the G1 is the first android phone so I'm sure they want to get updates out to keep G1 to G2 adopters happy. Also I believe the only reason that the G1 didn't get updates is basically because it's hardware, it just wasn't powerful enough. I'm also pretty sure that the only mytouch to get the update was the original not the one with the 3.5 jack yet and look at the slide I don't think it has even been rumored that froyo is coming to that and that's running espresso just like the MT4g is. Don't get me wrong because the MT4g is a great phone sure it has more ram but is it all even going to be accessible and it's gonna be used up by sense anyway. I still don't know all the rave about FFC unless you have a long distance relationship or travel a lot and/or have kids (I'm 19 in college working full time and school full time no need for it). And whoa 1ghz who cares just OC your G2 to 1ghz and I don't even notice a different because it's just 200mhz nothing to special. In the end it's all about personal preference, I have no need for a FFC, the processor seems equal to the g2 to me, screens not that much bigger (if it was 4.3 that would be deal breaker). Keyboard makes everything easier for me especially gaming so its between keyboard or ffc and i see keyboard as better. Id say updates for the g2 or mt4g would be the same speed or the g2 a little bit better. G1 & G2 are also flagship phones I would say and since updates for vanilla android can be made quicker then sense android I'd assume they would come out first
[G2 and Desire Z General] KeithRVA:
I bought the G2 knowing that within weeks if not days something newer and faster would be announced. That's just how it is and you will never have the baddest smartphone on the block for very long. But the G2 has a good mix of features (speed, keyboard, flash, hspa+) that should help it stay relevant for a few years. Long live the G's!
[G2 and Desire Z General] tenbeau:
I am trying to make a decision within the next 6 days to either keep my G2 or send it back. I do really like the G2 but the poor reception and various other issues relating to signal dropping or handing off signals which seem to result in random reboots and lack of permanent root etc. have me concerned that not all or perhaps not any will be addressed in the near future with an OTA. This G2 is my fourth one and while it is the best of the lot it still has issues. I guess I have been reluctant to give up. There has not been any solid info recently that I have seen stating that these issues will be addressed or even when they might. There are some rumors but nothing solid. Just a lot of people hoping. When I throw in the hinge issue and the possibility of them not lasting a long time it raises serious questions for me. As far as Gingerbread coming to the G2 I really don't know, I would imagine it will be some time down the road. I am considering switching to a My Touch 4g.
[G2 and Desire Z General] androidfeen809:
Thbx for posting, I love my G2 too bad yu didn't like it, its still a great phone regardless. Just to let yu know the mytouch won't b any better, same procesor just clocked at diff speeds. And now yu can overclock the G2 higher than the mytouch so its faster right now, so really yu aren't making a better choice its the same, only diff is a front facing camara and clock speed which yu can change now, big deal, but whatever thnx for sharing.
[G2 and Desire Z General] borodin1:
+1

I couldn't say it better myself. My old G1 could hold signal a lot better. Heck, even my wifes old Cliq can stream music all the way to my work without buffering once, can't say that about G2. I could care less about FFC (although neat!) and difference in proc speed is not enough to justify the switch but I returned my G2 and planning on getting MT4G as well. I've been lurking in MT4G forum and people are saying radio is very good in that phone. It will suck to have a phone that looks like it was designed by 14 year old (or for 14 yr old) but, sounds like, this is the price to pay to have a working phone.

Also, YMMV. My wife absolutely loves her stock, unrooted G2 and never even considered sending it back so eveyone's experience will be different.
[G2 and Desire Z General] borodin1:
Sounds like it can go for a day or two without rebooting so, yeah, it just may be a better phone:p
[G2 and Desire Z General] Mftek1:

I got the G2 on the assumption at it would be a worthy successor to my G1. It turns out that there are completely different philosophies between the two phones, and so i returned my G2. I will check out the MT4G, but I doubt that it will be much, if any, different than the G2.
[G2 and Desire Z General] KeithRVA:
Here is a short video of the MT4G...personally not for me. The TouchWiz style icons in the app drawer, bleh. And all that bloatware...just put pop-up ads on our phones next time T-Mobile...geez.

[G2 and Desire Z General] ScottC:
G2 had plenty of its own bloatware. As soon as the thing is rooted, we can begin dumping the bloat, just like we do on the G2.

I played with a MT4G in store, and it is mighty tempting to dump my G2. Signal sucks, hinges suck and the promised 4GB is nowhere to be found.

I don't dislike the G2, just a little disappointed in some of its shortcomings.

This is my second G2 btw, I haven't gotten another replacement seeing as this isn't an isolated problem.

Damn, all these problems with G2 signal. My G2 signal is as good as any of my other phones on T-Mobile, except maybe the Blackberry 9700 I had for awhile. I pity you guys, really, the G2 is so beautiful, I would be devastated if I had to return it. For like an hour.

If I am going to get a non keyboard phone I wohuld go witht the Vibrant. I had the Vibrant. The development in the section is nice. It has its own shortcomings but is a better choice than the MT4G. But I got RID of the Vibrant because o wanted a keyboard. Vanilla ain't too shabby either. What ever makes you happy, and the G2 did it for me!:)

Thanks for the pity lol. I live in south carolina and go figure the only non signal part on the tmobile coverage map is right where I'm staying.
