Good app but it's not on the market anymore it's only through their website.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] egyptshun:
Ok so I wanted to see of I can increase my fps on my phone, and I kept testing (no luck at all)... Then I found this and it made me wonder why.... Im X10a and I get 30.303030..... What do X10i get?

The image you posted is only a thumbnail (making it unreadable).
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] rvictorg:
Why do you care what the fps is?

It was capped for good reason and leaving it uncapped doesn't improve a thing. 32 fps vs 40 fps, who cares? It's a phone not a gaming machine. You're not going to see any difference and just consume more battery than need be.

Btw, why is this in the Android Dev section??
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] azian_advanced:
funny how the human eye can only see about 23 fps iirc. why would you want more?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] superprelude:
That's false. Internet ruined your believe.

Human brain can't probably tell if you slip 1 random frame into a 23+ Fps video, but our eye can definitely see the difference between 23 fps and 60 fps.

Our eyes is actually not capped on fps, and our brain can "feel" the difference much higher than 23 fps too.

For example, my eyes need 100 fps to be comfortable if i stare at it very focus.

But, yeah, x10 doesn't need 30fps+ to be useful.
[Droid 2 General] RiceHog:
Does anyone know if the new Droid 2 Global can be on both CDMA and GSM at the same time? That'll be great if you can be on Verizon and AT&T simultaneously.
[Droid 2 General] jy3ng4:
lolwut? The answer is no, but I don't even know how that would work if the answer was somehow yes. How can you be on two separate network technologies at the same time during one phone call/data session
[Droid 2 General] Laforet:
The cheapo dual SIM generic phones can do it, so is the Motorola XT800 over EVDO and GSM

Would not be possible with the D2G because it only has one SIM slot.
[EVO 4G General] desairs:
Hey guys, I am a launch day Evo user. I really loved my phone but I lost it after some time. I went back to my Pre back up phone for a little while.

Last week Best Buy had the Epic for $125 with 2 year upgrade so I thought I'd try it. Well here I sit with the Epic and honestly I'm not impressed with the 4 rom options I have. I feel like the Evo had impeccable support and a great community. The Epic just seems like a joke.

Well now I have a brand new evo and a week old epic. Which should I keep? TIA
[EVO 4G General] :
I think you just answered your own question. Keep the Evo.
[EVO 4G General] desairs:
I didn't mention that I love the Epic screen and the HD video decoding.
[EVO 4G General] terrel_b:
I wouldn't base your decision on the 4 ROM options currently available for the Epic. I would guess the dev community is waiting for Froyo to get down to serious business. Having said that, the dev community for the Evo is going to give you a lot more options even in the long run. If that's your primary distinguishing factor, the Evo should be your choice, but I would expect the dev community to pick it up for the Epic after Froyo is released.
[EVO 4G General] wingzfan:
Samsungs support sucks plain and simple. Case in point, the Froyo debacle. We're right around the corner for Gingerbread and Samsungs top phone line still doesnt have a current OS. If its taken this long to get froyo imagine how long it'll take to get Gingerbread. Theyre always one step behind.

Yes the screen on that phone is ridiculous and Id love to have it but Id rather have a better OS and access to new apps. Let alone the dev community for the EVO is HUGE and one of the best Samsung dev's is running an EVO and building for it.
[EVO 4G General] zone23:
I have said this before and now I'm saying it again because my opinion hasn't changed. The EPIC has a fantastic looking display. But it feels cheap. Now someone once didn't know what cheap feels like. So when your walking around in Vegas and a smoking hot prostitute walks up and says she is $2,000 and you pick the lady in the alley for $50 bucks that is what cheap feels like. It also felt awkward to me for some reason. If I had a choice it would be the EVO.
[EVO 4G General] Jye75:
Well, since you seem to be basing your decision on what the people here say... I say, go with the EVO.

But in reality, it's up to your own personal preference.
[EVO 4G General] r0cky0790:
If customization is what your looking for, of course the evo. U could deal without hd decoding and if u want a pretty display just turn ur brightness all the way up lol. I love my Evo thats why u should continue to rock wit. Best HTC phone out.

r0cky.Da.3v0.SU.
[EVO 4G General] hackulous:
Epic=better hardware

Evo=better developing community

Simple as that
[EVO 4G General] MrDSL:
QFT!

The dev community for the Epic is sad compared to the EVO but yeah I'm sure they're waiting for froyo to get things going :rolleyes:
[EVO 4G General] BrianDigital:
I know other phone have support but I always buy a HTC phone usually has way more support from the likes of XDA
[EVO 4G General] gnat_:
Was it just me? When I went to the Sprint store to compare the Evo to the Epic in person, I thought the Evo screen looked better. To me, the Epic had oversaturated colors, and I could see a dot-matrix like dithering effect on the SuperAMOLED screen.

It was most noticeable when browsing the web on the Epic; when I looked at the grey parts of the UI of the browser, I saw little dots and dithering everywhere.

Even though the scrolling and video was noticeably smoother on the Epic, the dithering of the screen bothered me so much that I bought the Evo.
[EVO 4G General] PerkNick:
I don't like the epics look just seems like a girl phone.
[EVO 4G General] EliWay:
The sAMOLED screen used on the Epic is far from amazing.It has a blueish hue all over like it came straight out of planet pandora(Avatar). And text isn't anywhere as crisp as the evo.. Look closely and you can see thousands of small dots all over the screen.

Colors are nice but unnatural and over-saturated.

sAMOLED = Overrated marketing gimmick
[EVO 4G General] hackulous:
Not so entirely accurate but we all have our own opinions on the subject the sAMOLED screen is nicer but it lacks a high enough pixel count to make it worth anything I work at sprint and I play with the epic all day and when I go home im not upset that I have an EVO its only 64000 colors compared to 16000000 but im not butthurt when I have hdmi out bad ass roms and as much support as I could ever need
[EVO 4G General] JTNiggle:
Oops, my bad.
[EVO 4G General] jdh10475:
Evo all the way plus epic is still on 2.1 which is a joke. If it takes this long for the Epic to get 2.2 will it ever get 2.3 some good old gingerbread. I would get the epic for my girlfriend. Keep the Evo.
[EVO 4G General] chas123:
What do you expect. They make toaster ovens, refrigerators, washing machines..... and phones. I'd say, from a support standpoint, they're probably stretched a little thin.
[EVO 4G General] hackulous:
The galaxy s series of phones are going to receive the update directly to gingerbread most likely bypassing froyo where the EVO will not receive a second major update to gingerbread it happens only once in the lifetime of an android phone having said that; the EVO is better. STILL.
[EVO 4G General] Swayyy:
I would definately agree with everyone except one thing. The new Nexus S is confirmed to be a Samsung device. Once this happens there is going to be a flurry of developers working on the Samsung... So as far as community support and customization I think the Samsung could be there shortly with this new Nexus...
[EVO 4G General] Got_Evo?:
I recently upgraded to the epic 2 weeks ago, but I returned it and got the Evo that I wanted from the gate, but best buy was out of stock at the time. 2 things that killed me about the epic. 1) it was a samsung and 2) I wasnt a big fan of the qwerty key board.

Im diggin the Evo and I think it will be around for a while.

p.s. The 2600mah batt from sprint is wonderful. Glad to be a member here.
[EVO 4G General] splmonster:
Personally I can't stand the Epic, the only benefit I see is the Hummingbird. Which only in the GPU department is it much faster then the Evo, processing power is pretty even. I think HTC build quality is far better to Samsung. I had an Epic as a second phone for a few weeks, and hated the cheap feel it had, not to mention the capacitive buttons were horrid. The Evo to me is a better phone, because HTC makes more solid phones, and Sense is miles ahead of Touchwiz. HTC support is pretty darn near the top, we got Froyo fast and I don't see why we won't get Gingerbread with the new Sense on the Evo. I also got the Sprint 2600mah battery and it didn't add much bulk at all, and now my battery is withstanding almost 2 days heavy use. Couldn't be happier with my Evo.
[EVO 4G General] splmonster:
I felt the same way, the Evo had more natural looking colors. Personally I can't stand Samsung's LED tv's or the Super AMOLED screens. Colors are highly over saturated...

I keep hearing entirely different from Sprint and HTC reps. That the Evo will get both Gingerbread and the new Sense.
[EVO 4G General] desairs:
I ended up activating the Evo. I am so happy. A few things...

With the Epic I only used the hardware keyboard one time lol. Seems like extra thickness for nothing.

The Epic as I sad before has ****ty support. From what I read this is not the case with all Galaxy S phone. Just the Epic. The Vibrant has great support.

GPS on the Epic is a HUGE!!! issue. It takes forever for a GPS lock and that's after you turn 4g off and do a reset.

The Evo is awesome. I was dumb to ever even doubt it. I look at the Hero and even that still has a lot of support and it's an old phone. That's really reassuring for me. Not that I will keep this phone once HTC releases a better phone.

Thanks for all of the help guys.
[EVO 4G General] timothydonohue:
the amoled screen looks better on the epic.

and, don't forget, it was quite a while before much support rolled out for the evo. it really isn't fair to compare a phone that has been out for almost 6 months to another that has only been available a short time in terms of ROMs available.

that being said, HTC will get you a lot more dev love than any Samsung phone here at XDA, but there are alternatives to XDA as well.

just my two cents. personally i thought the display on the epic looks great, but i'm happy with my evo, and probably wouldn't trade for the epic.
[EVO 4G General] jmollabi:
Evo
[EVO 4G General] afazel:
Remember that CyanogenMod will be available for the Galaxy S phones soon. Cyanogen said that he's not working on it, but that there are a lot of people working on CM for Samsung phones.
[EVO 4G General] EliWay:
That's entirely subjective.

lolwut? The evo had tons of support before it was even released. Remember how Google gave an evo to every single developer who attended Google I/O? As a result, it was rooted before launch.

After launch, it took literally days to get a working version of Froyo and just a couple of weeks to get a huge issue like the FPS cap solved.

So, definitely not "quite a while".
[EVO 4G General] splmonster:
The Evo had a huge dev fan base before it ever got released. LOL! Reason Google handed them out at Google I/O.
[EVO 4G General] lacrossev:
having four friends that just jumped from TP2's to Epics (i went the evo route from my TP2) I gotta say that i'm very satisfied with my decision, and i pray for the development for their devices to pick up.

When I first got my Evo the first thing i took notice of was the heft. It seemed to be just the right amount of weight for a device this size. On the other hand, having the Epic in hand, the weight of it made it feel like a dummy unit at best buy, it just didn't feel right for its size, and thus felt cheap to me.

The major arguments vs the two are 1. Keyboard 2. Processor 3. Screen.

1. Coming from a TP2, which had arguably one of the best if not the best keyboards for smartphones, the Epic's keyboard came up a little short. The keys were not staggered, but that might not matter to some people. The width of the keyboard was also not as well utilized as i hoped it would, with the system keys flanking the sides thus limiting the horizontal real estate for the rest of the keys. If you must have a keyboard, its a no brainer, but if you don't, the keyboard isn't anything to write home about, it works, but its not awesome.

2. The processor is more powerful than the one in the Evo, but that doesn't mean that the Evo is a slouch. Gadget nerds like us here on XDA will go on about benchmarks and linpack scores and all that, but what really matters is that the device feels fluid and smooth in-hand. To that end my Evo with CM6.1 loaded up to the brim with apps feels just as smooth as the Epic with a few apps. Even on Myn's which benches lower than CM6, it feels just as smooth.

To me, size of the screen is a big deal because i use my phone in my car mounted to the vents as the GPS and for music, so having a bit more space to hit buttons and see directions is a definate boon. That being said i do feel that the Epic's screen is more crisp, but as others have mentioned, i also agree that the colors are over-saturated. I use LCD density changer and Calibrator on my Evo and have gotten the colors and density to just the way i want it, so the brighter and sharper screen of the Epic isn't a big deal since i don't use my device outdoors a lot.

Finally, the Gingerbread / Froyo thing...the manufacturers can say whatever they want, even if the galaxy S is getting gingerbread OTA...Evos will still get Gingerbread one way or another. The fact that we are discussing this on XDA should render that point moot. Epic's froyo build has been leaked already and as i understand it, usable. The awesome people here have put froyo on devices that weren't meant to run froyo, so given two phones with similar specs, saying that one will get gingerbread while the other won't is a weak argument.
[EVO 4G General] go4the1:
Even if this is true (I'm highly skeptical) we'll still get gingerbread support through AOSP roms... CM7 anyone?
[EVO 4G General] scottspa74:
Thanks to the guys who piped in regarding 'dev support took quite a while for Evo'.

I don't know what someone's smoking, but Evo was rooted before release, AND GOT froyo in less than a month. OTA, and Root froyo no less.

Thanks for bearing me to it. BTW, who needs a hardware qwerty when you have a 4.3" screen (and arrows on the keyboard which function as a 'joystick/cursor arrow of sorts, as I've had to find out since my 8yr old nephew accidentally smashed my screen in and since screen replacement I've got a dead spot in the top right corner. Between screen rotation and the keyboard arrows, there are no deadspots - I got a launch day Evo and don't wanna get an insurance replacement cuz now unrevoked seems the only way to root)

Love my Evo.

The talk about only 1 major official upgrade per device is interesting, though, cuz it does fit with Androids history, but F it, we got xda, official my ass.
[EVO 4G General] fixxxer2008:

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] haseeb718:
On the iphone, they have the feature where it shows the caller's location. Is there a way that the G2 can do that? With an app maybe. Thanks in advance. I already searched google and couldn't find anthing.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cparekh:
There is an app in the market that does this. I had it on my MyTouch 3G. I think it used the area code and first three digits of the phone number to tell you where they were from. I'll see if I can find it. I think it was called caller location, or something like that.

There is something called "WorldCallPlaceandTime" that seems to do this.

Thank you. It works good
[Galaxy S I9000 General] philidor:
I tried it on my GT-I9000HKDITV (Italy) both JP5 (official for ITV) and JPO (with RegHack)

I think JP5 is better:

- faster (reduced lag)

- more stable

- better battery consumption

what do you think?

It might be better optimized for Italian networks?

Cosa pensate? Meglio JPO o JP5 sui nostri terminali ITV?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] claudios91:
In my opinion the JPO has more support but JP5 is faster. i'm now using jp5 and the SGS is really good with voodoo and speed mod kernel.

Secondo me meglio la JF5 ha più applicazioni ed è più veloce... con lo speed mod è perfetta. Con voodoo è eccelsa!

The root method is the same as the s7.

download z4root from market and root, after wards install busybox by titanium backup and you are set.

The app2sd mod works for this device since it is similar to the sony x10 on 2.1 but is risky because i lost wifi aftewards. So just explore until we get some real developers working on it hopefully cm6.1 port but after huawei realeases the recovery.img and source to mess around with though.

being able to overclock to 1ghz wouldnt hurt either.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pbrauer:
S7 Bootloader?

Has anyone figured out how to get into the bootloader for this device?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] alexisprz:
Havent been able to through any apps \ commands. Just go to a black screen and thats it, and recovery sends you into factory settings for your device

I only know that pressing back key and call\send key when when powering on the device puts it into update mode.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] CasualStarlord:
Zomg, nice, thank you alexisprz, it's rooting time :D

I really wish Android had a better term for rooting, it sounds like I'm either breaking it, or trying to cram my man bits into it some how.

Will this affect my ability to use the manufacturers update to froyo in the future?

UPDATE: z4root worked great, I installed busybox no problemo, very happy forum member here :D
