Went back to echo hd. Works great with this rom. Data speeds are the best I have ever had.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aph:
I got consistent 1.8Mbps down/900Kbps up on 3G with PRI 1.90. I've always had just above 1Mbps down but that's just incredible.

It's my main motivation for flashing to 3.70.
[EVO 4G Android Development] McClair672:
Thanks Inda for the PRI zip!
[EVO 4G Android Development] richB7:
No I did not. I'm currently running Myn’s Warm TwoPointTwo which is what 3.30?
[EVO 4G Android Development] lopezpm:
Running great on CM 6.1.1, just had a result of 2.08

Not sure if you need another confirmation but I tried it on sense running 3.29 and it was horrible, so yeah it needs to be running on 3.30 or CM
[EVO 4G Android Development] indagroove:
Running stock 3.70 rooted with latest radios and PRI:
[EVO 4G Android Development] indagroove:
Thanks. I added a warning to the first post, but I think you mean needs to be running 3.70.
[EVO 4G Android Development] gqukyo:
I flashed this but haven't noticed anything different... if anything, I'm getting slower speeds... using Cal's HD ROM 1.5.3 with the undervolted stock #17 kernel.

I did notice that the the 1.90_003 number matches the latest NV under Cal's post...
[EVO 4G Android Development] indagroove:
You are using the wrong rom for this PRI. That rom is a 3.30 based rom, not 3.70.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lopezpm:
Crap, I did mean 3.7. :o Sorry.

BTW, thanks for the PRI update
[EVO 4G Android Development] PhantomPhreak53:
I don't know. It is per this article

I just tried speedtest again and my downstream is much faster but the upstream is weird... it hops up and down rapidly and eventually ends in teens to the low 20s kB/s... I am inside a conf room in a big building in midtown NYC though... :P I'll try again later when i'm outside...
[EVO 4G Android Development] roadster92:
Tried this PRI and my result got lower with 4G / 3G and also quadrant 3FPS drop.

4G with PRI 1.90 = 3.5Mb download , 4G with PRI 1.77 = 5.5Mb

3G with PRI 1.90 = 600kb download, 3G with PRI 1.77 = 980kb

both tests are at the same location in my house.

3D test in Quadrant also drop in FPS significantly. My score with PRI 1.90 at 1.037 Mhz ~ 1200 and with PRI ~ 1350

I am currently using MYN 2.2 RLS4 which is based on OTA 3.30.651.3.

It's look like the new PRI does not play nice with 3.30.651.3 based ROM.

:)

I am now back to PRI 1.77_003
[EVO 4G Android Development] indagroove:
Yes, it is NOT for 3.30 or 3.29 based roms.

Also, FWIW I can get those 2 quadrant scores on any given rom, just running the quadrant test back to back with no changes, so quadrant doesn't really mean much to me.
[EVO 4G Android Development] egzthunder1:
I got a 200-300 point drop in Quadrant with 1.90... so, while meaningless, they do show that something is getting affected. Like you said, it doesn't seem to be playing nice with 3.30 roms... *looks up and whispers myn... hurry up with RLS5* :rolleyes:
[EVO 4G Android Development] sultan.of.swing:
Why the hell are you guys testing something that has to do with the network with quadrant?
[EVO 4G Android Development] b0ricua:
BTW running CM6.1.1 and just flashed the 1.90 PRI.

Went from 500-600 kpbs to 1162 kbps right away according to speakeasy.net speed test. Very nice.

Also running the latest radio combo pack

Thanks for the zip India!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] egzthunder1:
Take it easy, no need to get upset. The reason why we are testing Quadrant is because the performance of the device drops like a rock when this PRI is flashed. It gets laggier, processor usage gets stuck at 100% and such... using Quadrant simply confirms that this thing has adverse effects on roms with a base other than 3.70. So, we are not testing the PRI per se.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sultan.of.swing:
Well the fact that the phone is lagging and cpu usage is stuck at 100% then guess what? Any benchmarks will be lower.

So its pointless to run a bench when the cpu is already in excessive use by something else.
[EVO 4G Android Development] indagroove:
Yes, I have looked at both OTAs, and there is no difference in PRI or Radio versions in the two OTA updates. The one for hardware 0002 and 0003 has some differences in framework and camera, so that both can be properly updates to the same point despite which version (3.29 or 3.30 you are coming from).
[EVO 4G Android Development] roadster92:


The score I posted is average of 4 runs. If you watch the test during 3D, you will see the drop in FPS.
[EVO 4G Android Development] indagroove:
I don't have that issue on stock rooted 3.70.
[EVO 4G Android Development] rileyd5:
its working perfect for me as well on rooted deodexed 3.70 stock. Quads are the same as before, data speeds are the same, battery life is much better on 3.70. Happy camper here :)

thanks again Groove for this.
[EVO 4G Android Development] roadster92:


I used watchdog,mine does not have any cpu load issue after flashing 1.90. That' s why my conclusion is the based ROM has something to do with the new PRI. It's puzzled me is why PRI from what I understand is Preferred Roam Indicator has somerhing to do with network get the 3D score lower. It's possible that during the test the network was actives somehow and make the score lower. It's also obvious that PRI 1.9 speed test also lower for me.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Stroid01:
Good info I am on 3.30 based rom so I will hold off on updating the PRI. Thanks for updating..i might recommend making that warning in red, bold, and large on the OP people tend to not read the entire thread and over look small words lol :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] indagroove:
If they don't read, and have a poor experience due to that, perhaps that will get them to read more carefully in the future..
[EVO 4G Android Development] egzthunder1:
As I tried to explain in my post above, I am only using this as a means of comparison with hard numbers and not just a feeling. The fact that my phone felt a bit laggier pushed me to do a Quadrant to check what the scores were, and then I decided to look at the CPU usage based on some of the other posts. So, your statement holds true depending on the order in which you determine your results.

Your procedure: Notice Lag > Check CPU Usage > you are right, benchmark is not needed

My procedure: Notice Lag > Run Quadrant > Read a bit more of the thread > check CPU usage

So, I did an extra step... big deal. :rolleyes:

Please, stop arguing. Just drop it, I agree with you.

[EVO 4G Android Development] pinoy724:
Forgot to mention Software # 3.30.651.3

Hardware Version= 0003
[EVO 4G Android Development] PhantomPhreak53:
Ok good! Do you by chance know which one was for the 0002 hardware version? The one that was out and rooted already or the one that started pushing today?
[EVO 4G Android Development] indagroove:
The rooted version from the RUU is for all hardware versions. The only files with differences are in the OTA's, which you only want to run if you are not rooted.
[EVO 4G Android Development] PhantomPhreak53:
Cool! Good to know!

[EVO 4G Android Development] b0ricua:
Just realized that after flashing 1.90 PRI on CM6.1.1 that my scrolling and swiping across homescreens seemed a little choppier.

I fired up FPS2d and found out that my FPS were going no higher than 30 FPS. I flash back to 1.77 PRI and and now getting an average of 53 FPS and much smoother scrolling. Not sure how a PRI could have anything to do with FPS but it definitely did.

Can any other CM users test this out? I'm using the stock CM kernal as well.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jakobrmc:
Just tested mine all is normal. 54 fps.
[EVO 4G Android Development] b0ricua:
Just reflashed back to PRI 1.90 and am getting 53 FPS average now. How strange. Oh well! We're good now.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Jim M:
I flashed this and see no real improvement in download speeds.

No difference in Quadrant score.

CPU use when idle 8% - 10%

I have no lag or any other problems with this PRI.
[EVO 4G Android Development] DNA_007:
I'm running fresh 3.4.0.1 with PRI 1.77 and I get 1040Kbps down and 710Kbps up.

I'm not sure what is the hype about this new PRI.

I guess it must improve speeds in weaker signal locations.

[EVO 4G Android Development] IMiLL102911:
I'm getting 3 bars now instead of 2 with the new PRI. Not consist 3 bars but I'm seeing it more often. Speeds seem like they have gone up also using the speedtest app.
[EVO 4G Android Development] indagroove:
I just posted this over in the radio thread, but might as well post it here too..

Here's something I noticed of interest in the Unrevoked Forever Wiki here: http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/forever

I just updated my hboot to 2.10 and have S-off, but I had already installed Unrevoked Forever, which apparently needs to be installed on older radios but does still work on the newest radio. I just couldn't reinstall the latest version on the latest radio, but luckily Unrevoked IS "Forever".
[EVO 4G Android Development] ncfastls1:
Haven't really noticed a difference in data speeds or signal strength, but it's not any worse or lagging so no complaints here lol.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aph:
No more 100% CPU with a 3.70 ROM, but 3G speeds are way down now. The tests continue...

Seems to have been a temporary problem sprint. Back to almost 2 megabits per second down and 1 megabit up on 3g. Walking outside I get 7 down where it used to be 4.

So has anyone figured out how to run 1.90 pri without the lag and 100% cpu? Does using the 2.10 hboot cure that problem?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rosco911:
I need a new phone, im poor lol.. so my choices are a HD2 or a Xperia X10, I love android, and I wanna know if the ROMs on the HD2 are as good as any other ROM for a native Android device.

Or am I better off with the X10?...

Thank u guyz.

Oh and is it hard to install Android on the HD2?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alfabouch:
Well got both an X10 and an HD2,

Got an Desire HD Android build on my HD2 and i find it as smooth as on the X10.

Tbh, as you don't need to be root on Android HD2, I find it easier to tweak and you got more answers on the web whatever you are searching for.

So my vote would go to the HD2 + Android, as smooth, better screen, easier to tweak, a better feedback and you can still use the native WM or alternative Rom.

As for the installation, you just need to copy any Android build you want to try on your

MicroSD device and launch this.

Should work perfectly. (Just had to flash my radio because of a robot voice issue)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orangekid:
I'd get an HD2 simply for the development factor, you can get more kernels, ROMs, and builds and fixes.

You also have your choice of any winmo ROM if you want as an added bonus.

Android on HD2 is on par with Android on the X10 IMO, I would much rather have my HD2

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chriscardinal:
After a bit of stupidity, I installed the G2 Launcher2.apk on to my phone. This has apparently halted the second stage of the FRG83D update, which my phone has relentlessly attempted to install for over a week now.

I'm getting an apply_patch_check error and it appears to be failing on the hash check of Launcher2.apk.

So I rolled back to what I thought was my backup of Launcher2.apk. This went poorly. My phone wouldn't boot at all. Had to ADB and push a separate Launcher2.apk I found online.

Now I'm at an impasse. The version I now have is 5 screens, clearly an N1 Froyo L2, but it's also throwing the apply_patch_check error.

Is anyone able to provide me with a link to the FRG83 Launcher2.apk? I downloaded the signed-passion-img-FRG83_0923.zip file from HTC which I think should have it buried in the .img file, but I'm unclear how to unpack and push a file from there to my phone...

Alternatively, was Launcher2.apk updated for FRG83D? If not, I could just pull the L2 from my friend's N1 and use that... but I'm guessing it'll be more of the same checksum fun.

Finally, is there any way to tell it to ignore the patch check? Or is that impossible?

Many thanks in advance!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rusty!:
See attachment for FRG83 Launcher2.

If it still fails, you could try flashing the update using a custom recovery with signature checking turned off (ie. Amon_RA 2.0 or ClockworkMod)?

Sweet jesus, thank you. Finally was able to push the Launcher2 apk and odex and successfully upgraded to D. Thanks so much!

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cphancock1:
It was believed that your security or s-off would stay off forever when unrevoked forever was made... but after this last update some are claiming that the update turned it back to s-on... so i wouldnt do an update from sprint... usually in an hour or two someone on this site will release a rooted version of the update anyway so just be patient... If you lose root it could be rooted again but it may take time for them to find a way to root the update.... usually the manufacture or phone company will patch up the old way of rooting.. and it may just be that you will be un rooted forever :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fmedina2:
Yes you will loose root.

Yes you can re-root.

The source code for gingerbread comes out tomorrow so it should only be a matter of days before custom ROM's will have gingerbread integrated into it. Just be patient.

Do you know how to use Google? It's a really useful tool. I don't care if you believe me or not, do your own research if you won't take my word for it. I already have.

Also most of the ROM thread's in the developer section have said they will begin integrating 2.3 into their ROM.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thetakara:
Your sarcasm isn't needed. I used the search function in XDA (which most seem to never use) and Google. No legit results, so again, I don't see where you are getting your information on this.

Yes, of course they will begin integrating 2.3 into their ROMs -whenever the code is released-. At the moment, they are going off of what they pull from the /system from the Nexus S, which most know is not the same as the source code.

[Nexus S General] DarkAgent:
After I got my Nexus S today I noticed on autobrightness, it was less bright than my Vibrant. I tested them both at full brightness and both were similar, so I figured the autobrightness/light sensors are just calibrated differently on the Nexus S, no big deal.

However, later on in the day I realized autobrightness is not doing anything. To confirm my suspicion, I did a test (very unscientific, mind you):

1) I took the Nexus S from my fairly well lit room into an unlit closest. No change in brightness.

2) I repeated the same thing, except this time I took the Vibrant with me. Vibrant had a clear decrease in brightness while the Nexus S, once again, did nothing.

3) I covered the light sensors on both my Nexus S and Vibrant (using my thumb). The Vibrant reacted to the "less light" and lowered brightness; Nexus S did nothing.

At that point I became fairly convinced there is something wrong, despite my friends reassurances that it was just in my head. So, the only thing to determine now was if the light sensor itself is broken or if it is a software issue. I downloaded a few light sensor testing apps from market and it seems like the light sensor itself is working fine. So it must be a software issue.

Am I the only one with this problem? I will test this out further tomorrow in the sun and see what happens, but I am convinced something is up.
[Nexus S General] AdamHart612:
My autobrightness seems to work fine, but its colors are all sorts of weird just like the reviews...it literally looks like my screen was peed on when its on auto

[General Topics] hexskrew:
I just wanted to tell everyone about a new tech show that is being dished out called DeAuthThis. It's not a show about just hacking crap maliciously but more on the verge of what Systm used to be but with more of a gaming, computer diy, and simple electronics (and also stuff like arduino) type of thing.

I am a contributor to the show and also hopefully a person doing segments as well. There has been topics ranging from a how to install a stealth xbox 360 case as a replacement to the old crappy white case, to a 'stun glove' that has enough power to well.. we wont go into that, but having fun learning about how it works and things of that nature. There are a few things about hacking firmwares, and maybe even a little bit about wardriving, and even in the future a little how to here and there on android hacking, modding, and theming.

I know you'r probably roaming the xda-sea for some of that good knowledge on stuff, or the latest rom, so I am just going to give a link to the first two episodes that have been published, and if you like what you see, hit us up at the forums, and check out the website - deauththis.com
