[G2 and Desire Z General] androidfeen809:
Yea they are the same gpu, just different chipset clocked at diff speeds but its the same once they are the same clocked speed, actually I got higher quadrant score on G2 on 1ghz than mytouch 4g. I think sense slowed down the phone because I got 1970, the mytouch gets 1910 at 1ghz also on smartphonebenchmarks.com, not sure if my results were posted already but it should be b4 the end of the day.

And yea htc really dissappointed me with the rooting, so hard to root them permanently we haven't gotten a perm root yet!.
[G2 and Desire Z General] androidfeen809:
Actually by the comments am reading the G2 is being the favorite up to now, I think you misunderstood the whole thread, didn't you read people complaining about the mytouch screen not having slcd and ugly sense lol G2 rocks!
[G2 and Desire Z General] pierrekid:
Agree with everything you said tito except for that the mytouch is more capable. For the last time to everyone... the g2 is UNDERCLOCKED WITH A SIMILAR CHIPSET SO THEY ARE CAPABLE OF THE SAME PERFORMANCE. Lol so please people understand your specs before you comment ;)
[G2 and Desire Z General] pierrekid:
Actually I have been reading the thread, but you notice there are multiple people on this thread and others that still believe that the mt4g is superior. So I'm just restating the facts. And second I never mentioned anything about the slcd, the only thing about the screen that I mentioned was the .1, so read the entire reponse before you respond my friend :)
[G2 and Desire Z General] ~~Tito~~:
I did mention most of your arguments a few pages back. . .
[G2 and Desire Z General] ~~Tito~~:
Most consumers don't have the poweress to upclock it back to 1ghz. By more capable I mean, upper-hand. Plus the 1ghz out of the box and the decent amount of extra RAM.

It does have a newer chipset, which can mean better performance, or better enhancements, or better power consumption, or the combination of all 3, or neither. I am assuming it will be a mix of the performance, and power consumption.

BUT, the G2 is still superior in my eyes, since they are almost the same, and extra RAM past 512mb in most situations wont do much on a mobile phone(unless your a G1). The FFC is still a gimmick.
[G2 and Desire Z General] pierrekid:
Well based on that let's determine if its more "capable". If both can get to the same clock speed, just that one is purposefully underclocked, then how does that make one more capable than the other? On top of that since expresso is taking up the majority of that ram and cannot be removed unless through root, how does having more ram that can't be accessed make it more capable? You say that most people can't overclock the g2 because they don't have the knowledge too, but in that same sense ( no pun intended) most people cannot take full advantage of the ram the mt4g because they cannot get root to get rid of expresso. So how, once again, does that make it more capable?
[G2 and Desire Z General] ~~Tito~~:
Spec wise. Not functional wise. :cool:
[G2 and Desire Z General] androidfeen809:
Yea I know you weren't talking about slcd I was just pointing it out, to show you that people aren't liking the mytouch as much, and I totally agree with you on that the G2 is the best cuz it totally is bro G2 FTW lol
[G2 and Desire Z General] androidfeen809:
Yea I don't understand how is it more capable either, its the same GPU just clocked at diff speeds, and if anything wouldn't the G2 be more capable since its got stock android
[G2 and Desire Z General] Azrael3123:
Well, seeing as how it takes HTC a decent amount of time to upgrade phones that have sense on them, imagine how long its going to take for them to port gingerbread to the mytouch4G. It probably will take even longer considering the new mytouch doesn't even have "true" sense but rather, as someone said earlier, a basterdized version of espresso sense. This is a pretty big deal considering gingerbread is right around the corner.
[G2 and Desire Z General] androidfeen809:
Btw check out the quadrant scores on the G2 at 1ghz on smartphonebenchmarks.com. By this I think not only have sense taken some space but it also slowed down the mytouch

Hi guys,

I know its short after the 2.1 release, but did someone manage to remove the current launcher from the device?

Currently installed Launcher Pro and its running more smoother than the stock launcher.

Tried to find the launcher with Rootexplorer, but it seems it got replaced in a different folder or maybe renamed.

Any idea how to fix this?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jedis:
You need to edit the mp3 ID3 tag to change the title of the song. It doesn't use the actual file name to display in the list.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranger61878:
Just an FYI, you can also put them on your SD card in the following folder structure: media -> audio -> notifications and/or ringtones (2 folders)and they will show up in the system ringtone picker. Obviously put ringtones in the ringtone folder and notifications in the notifications folder :D

Hi guys is there a good app that will free memory up as I was looking at what memory was free earlier and realised it was low at 118mb so alot was being used so I restarted and have 360mb spare. I realise that apps close themselves? So I medal good program to free some memory
[Desire HD General] dazultra2000:
Are you having issues with speed, or are you just looking at your free memory and thinking tha 118MB is low?

Android is clever enough to make sure that it has enough memory to do what it is currently doing, so should you need more than 118MB for an app, something else will get closed down.

There is no point in closing down apps just to get more free memory. By closing apps that aren't ready to be closed you may end up causing more damage than good.
[Desire HD General] vimto25:
Well I do a bench mark test and get good results when more memory 's free and tbh I don't think it slows down when its got less RAM spare I just thought maybe things should be closed down
[Desire HD General] vimto25:
First time android user ya see as was iPhone owner for years and must say this is so much better, so I'm just getting used to it
[Desire HD General] berek9999:
Mine sits at around the same figure. Don't worry about it, Android will handle it for you, shutting down apps as it needs to. Doing anything yourself will probably just have an adverse effect.
[Desire HD General] vimto25:

why cant i use screen density (190) my rooted x10i (2.1 Eclair)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Jasonong75:

it works great, im enjoying my X10 as a reborn new phone.... hehe
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] monsterday2002:

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] povilai:
You can change it manually.

In Root Explorer open file: /system/build.prop and change ro.sf.lcd_density=190

Save and restart phone
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] tuxStyle:
I tried yesterday to change the density.

Looks cool but quite a few apps have pretty much fixed width/height and sometime 1/3 of the screen is black :(
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] fogozito:
whats the recomended density?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] zyryck:
From as far as i can tell 240 seems to be the perfect density for me (and I think it's the default one also but i'm not sure)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Pawnty:
I'm using 200 at the moment, looks and works good but I think I might bump it up to 220.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] zyryck:
Well 200 makes my dialer shrink and leaves 1/3 of the screen black
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] monsterday2002:
does LCDDENSITY realy works? on X10 its always blank screen when i try 'trial' mode for any resolution.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] erick_o:
what density did you use??
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] MrPappy86:
The only problem is the dialler is smaller in 190 density setting. Any solution?

Hi,

I've followed various posts on here and have managed to compile and install my own kernel build. I am using the leshak initramfs and would like to be able to modify the init executable that lives in the sbin folder.

I've had a search around and can't work out if there is any source code available to build this or if it just pulled directly from the device. Can anyone confirm if and how it is possible to build this executable?

Thanks in advance,

Theres no source from Samsung available.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobsie41:
I have a Desire running froyo which has been debranded and i have also invoked apps to sd using adb method.

Hopefully, in the near future, we may get another firmware update so, in readyness for this i have a few questions that i need answering.

To upgrade firmware, i need to insert my goldcard which is a different card to the one i use reguarly in my phone. Is there any way i can maintain all of my applications after upgrade of firmware ie. Insert goldcard, upgrade return original goldcard containing app data and after having done this, maintain my adb push status and original applications.

I may be wrong (bit of a noob!) but i don't think this is straightforward as apps are split between sd and phone storage.

Please advise!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
First thing to do is make your everyday card into your gold card as this sorts out having to faff about with changing cards...

OTA updates shouldn't remove apps/data so you should be fine

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Totalno_LooD:
So, as most of us went to Nordic 2.1 x10 mini pro update I would like to get back to 1.6 (preferably to original O2 Germany version but any version will do).

I have tried editing build.prop in 2.1 to values 1239-2971 (these values were from my original build.prop in 1.6) but SE Update Service says that there is no new updates. I guess that this doesn't work anymore :)

So, is there any old software backup of 1.6 available for downgrade? :)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] tsip4:
Try deleting the db folder in /Update Service inside your program files
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Totalno_LooD:
That doesn't work.

I could try putting 1.6 build.prop (original one that I had before editing and updating) but I am afraid not to brick my phone.

Is this safe to do?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] vlissine:
Don´t do this. I tried it already. Doesn´t work, and will put your phone in a boot loop.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] thekindladies:
May I ask why you want to go back to 1.6? Is there something not right with the 2.1 upgrade?

I don't have it yet and am not sure if I want to upgrade if it is so hard to downgrade.

________________________________

edit: I have found the list of issues with 2.1. I will follow this thread to find out how to downgrade if I'm not satisfied with 2.1.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] vlissine:
I´ve paid to Davinci to downgrade to 1.6 because of the keyboard issues. I use Palm Graffiti in portrait mode and with my physical keyboard already being german, having Swedish layout on top of it was too much. Will wait for German update to be available. Otherwise no problems at all, only benefits - better battery handling in 2.1 etc.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] thekindladies:
Ok, thanks for letting me know.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Totalno_LooD:
It doesn't have any big problems, but as vlissine said there is this annoying thing with the keyboard. And as german update to 2.1 is coming out soon I would like to get back to original 1.6 version.

Also, I don't know is there any difference in Marketplace between countries. For example one application could be present on german version, but not on nordic.

At first glance there is not that much big of a difference so that you MUST switch to 2.1 immediately, except if the nordic version is suitable for your use.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] thekindladies:
Hm, no, I'm not planning to go nordic, I will wait for the update to come to Belgium.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] knk1990:
u should try omnius instead of davinci. they charge per day of use rather than per flash and its cheaper
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] vlissine:
I did omnius when I unbranded my phone. This time I used Davinci just to compare. Omnius has one disadvantage - you have to chase their dealers to get credits credited onto your account while at Davinci it is straightforward and immediate.

Also charge per day might be interesting for those who want to flas a bunch of phones, not just one. But I agree omnius is cheaper and is as good as.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] li_boud:
When Locale updates arrive, changing your build.prop to your generic one, and then using SEUS to repair your phone would do the trick. You will be changed to your local 2.1
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] vlissine:
I tried just to test to change Nordic into Russian by using this technique. Didn´t work.

I have an issue with my handset that I've just noticed. When browsing the internet over 3G my data stalls. The browser sits and waits for the connection to change to HSDPA "H". This can take upto 30 seconds. The page then loads and the connection changes back to 3G, starting the whole process again.

I have an unlocked, SIM free handset on Orange UK.

I had this issue on my Hero, and there was a fix issued with the 2.1 update.

Am I alone with this issue?

Anyone else got any ideas?

[Desire HD General] frottage:
I think this could be an issue with Orange and Froyo - I had the same thing with my hero on Orange. My DHD is on T-mobile and works better - although there is still an issue with t-mob capping HSDPA to 0.35Mbps but thats another story
[Desire HD General] xtommox:
I hope if it is, they resolve it soon! I know that orange haven't released the DHD themselves yet... but they should be doing it soon and they've got support guides for it online.

I've just switched from T-Mob as I could get more mins on Orange and figured that as they're merging their 3G signal from next year... and I can get Orange Wednesdays easier this way haha.

Just going to do the factory reset now... if that doesn't improve things I'll get onto P4U and Orange...

[Desire HD General] Noisy1:
I've got the same problem, i'm with Vodafone Australia, seems as though there is a very long pause while the phone switches between 3g and HSDPA and while it's on 3g it does nothing or is very slow. This is seriously annoying and i've been searching for a solution for days. I had come to the conclusion that maybe the HSDPA signal is weak or something and have been searching for a solution to turn HSDPA off as i've had other phones where browsing on 3g only has been sufficiently fast.

Hi all,

Has anyone else noticed how much battery usage the screen is using? I know, I know its a larger screen but whenever I check the battery usage in settings (Settings -> About Phone -> Battery Usage -> Whats using my battery) it says the screen has been using about 70-75% of the battery as opposed to everything else which is about 4-5%. I checked with a friends regular Desire and his screen was only using around the 7-8% mark?? I know the screen is bigger on the DHD but really, that much more power consuming?

Anyone else noticed this? Or is mine bugged...
