Radio Version question

Firstly, I LOVE Nero V3.. i'm using a custom launcher as well.. honestly i've never been so satisfied with any electronic device in my life.. (well... since my first Plasma TV)

Anywho..

Which Radio works best on this device? with this rom?

Before I was using stock Tmobile 2.1 with no lag fix.. and in NYC I was receiving 4300+mbps downloads and over 2300 up. (no lie) HSDPA is beautiful.

every since the Nero Rom, my only complaint is that I now get less than 2000kbps down and 1500 up.

While the phone was getting laggier and laggier by the day... the data download speed (via 3g Not Wifi) was WAY faser.

I know there are a million different modems.

can someone share their knowledge about which is fastest on 3.5g?
[Vibrant General] iynfynity:
try the JK6, JL4 and JL5 are good modems.
[Vibrant General] lqaddict:
I am on JL5, and I am in NYC, the only 5+ Mbs speeds I've seen are by my folks place in Brooklyn, and it has been somewhat consistent if not a bit better with JL5 over stock.
[Vibrant General] DangerousDave:
To get to the red voodoo menu you must reboot to recovery using the power menu. Press the power button for 2 seconds,. A menu will pop up with a "Recovery" option. Select it to reboot to recovery to get the red menu. DO NOT use Rom Manager you will not get to the red menu with Rom Manager.
[Vibrant General] os2baba:
That was it! I'm surprised that this wasn't mentioned in the notes. Voodoo was enabled as I thought. I think it's only slightly less laggy now than it was with stock Eclair. It was very fast when I first booted up. But once I added all my apps, it started to get a bit laggy. But so far, it's only laggy in some cases - almost all of them while loading an app list. I would be interested to know how many apps people have installed. I have about 100 apps.
[Vibrant General] KWKSLVR:
Holding the power button and selecting "recovery" will also get you into the red screen.
[Vibrant General] os2baba:
Which is what finally got me into the red recovery. You said "also". What other way can you get into the red recovery screen?
[Vibrant General] trunkstar1:
Is there a solid and current list of "known bugs" for Nero3 available? I'm VERY interested in flashing but would prefer not to be surprised by any issues if I can help it. (And not have to read all 150-some pages of the Nero3 thread, if I can help it.)
[Vibrant General] os2baba:
I'm getting amazing battery life

The phone has been running for 16.5 hours and I'm still at 64% battery. Admittedly, hasn't been used much. But even in those cases, my phone would pretty much be down t 30% or so in 6-7 hours. I think one crucial difference I'm seeing is that the running % is only 7%. Whereas, my phone would never sleep with Android System pegging constantly at 100% or thereabouts. I have installed almost all the apps I had before. Hopefully, this will last.
[Vibrant General] Ariella19:
nevermind.
[Vibrant General] mikebond_mb:
I'm trying to install the nero-blue-oasp mod using Metamorph. I put the zip file on my internal sd card and then extracted it using metamorph, but it says the theme is invalid because the theme control file could be missing or incorrectly written.

Am I missing a step somewhere?

Thanks,
[Vibrant General] lolcopter:
did you reboot after restoring all your apps?
[Vibrant General] os2baba:
Yes. I rebooted 3-4 times. As specified. After the initial boot, I waited for 15 minutes. Then rebooted. Then enabled Voodoo. Waited for 15 minutes after boot and rebooted. Restored most apps. Some like Sims 3 and Avatar couldn't get restored. Nor did Music Player. But it did have Music Player. I created a shortcut for it and rebooted. After that I got the Music Player. No Sims 3 or Avatar. The movie plays in the media player. But no icon.

I just managed to get the GPS working.

The battery life is still amazing. I have never had an Android phone that lasted this long.
[Vibrant General] bossman137:
Ya i should have made a note on that, its a bit finicky. I got it to work by first the "unzip/extract new theme" then on the metamorph main screne click the only other button "pick existing theme" I applied them all that way, do them one at a time, the dev mentioned some issue with doing it all together.

lemme know if that works for ya
[Vibrant General] mikebond_mb:
I changed the name of the zip file to match the xml doc inside and it started working. Currently rebooting to see if it took. I did it all at once though.

Thanks.
[Vibrant General] bossman137:
Hey if that works, more power too you, if not try my method.

And hey everyone two new mods posted on first post

1. A way to watch hulu on your android (nero 3 tested obviously)

2. Nexus s bootup flash, pretty slick stuff. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lAFSEsEZnnE
[Vibrant General] mikebond_mb:
Yeah, I started messing around with it again before I saw your post. Luckily everything seems to have worked fine!
[Vibrant General] lqaddict:
It's hard to pin point the bugs with the ROM since most of the issues are user specific it seems, one of the issues that plugs all JL5 builds are:

1. When on the call and you press menu button you will get a memopad option, choosing it will force close the dialer and your call will drop (the phone handset symbol stays in the status bar though)

2. The Froyo plagued with a nasty SMS bug where your messages might not go to the intended recipient but to a random person, so do not **** on your boss to your friend if your boss is in your address book :)

Anyone care to add more?
[Vibrant General] bossman137:
Wow, i didn't even know about that memo option, that would be super useful lol. I'm a little sadder now.

No but i completely agree with you on that, this is a rock solid ROM, i would dare say there are fewer bugs with this from any stock roms we would be getting from our carriers.

Any problems are really more specific to users.

All i can testify for is that I have VERY VERY few problems, its fast, and has a lot of new new 2.3 bells and whistles.

Really the best thing we can do is just make our backups, flash, restore apps, give it a go for a couple weeks. Worst case scenerio you hate it and flash back losing like an hour of life for a worthwhile experiment :)
[Vibrant General] Ariella19:
I finally caved in and did it and I'm SO glad I did. I had never rooted or done anything to my phone, but I was so sick of the lags and freezing so I went ahead and tried it.

This runs so smooth, quick and easy. I didn't even realize how bad my phone had gotten. The gallery always froze and forced the phone to freeze, the gmail app wouldn't send notifications, downloading and updating apps took longer etc. I could go on. All of these problems are long gone.
[Vibrant General] lqaddict:
I just got curious about it, and I think it is because we don't have the memopad app on this ROM.

I will see if I can find a backup of it.

Sent from my Nero powered Vibrant
[Vibrant General] bossman137:
Ya keep me updated eh.
[Vibrant General] trunkstar1:
Seriously? It sends text messages to random recipients?!
[Vibrant General] maggi101:
Thats pretty gnarly. Sort of a deal breaker, that.
[Vibrant General] lqaddict:
Well, at least Google acknowledged it and is saying they have a fix

http://www.engadget.com/2011/01/05/android-text-messaging-bugs-acknowledged-fixes-detailed/

P.S. It only affects stock Android SMS app, if you are using Handcent or any other alternatives you will avoid it, unless the bug is present in the alternative SMS applications as well.
[Vibrant General] bossman137:
Did some tinkering with my bootup and shutdown, plus more Linda in my life is a good thing! See first post
[Vibrant General] synaesthetic:
I don't know if it's my Vibrant or what, but Nero and every other 2.2 ROM has acted horribly on my phone. Bad speed, bad battery life. I get a much better user experience with Eclair ROMs.
[Vibrant General] IceAg08:
Love this ROM. On the dev forum I saw some people were having problems with the Gallery 3D killing their battery. I cant find what page I read that on (The thing is over 200 pages). Anybody have any more info on that?
[Vibrant General] efrisch:
I rooted to Nero V3 the other night and it is great. I lost the car tools app, though. Anyone know how to restore it? Thanks in advance
[Vibrant General] Exel:
I was running stock firmware on my Vibrant for a week or so, read around the forums on how to do stuff, or what stuff I could even do for that matter, and I caught on pretty quick. (I'm a former iPhone owner so, it was kinda different but the same at the same time. :P) Anyway, I'm running Nero v3 now, it's pretty quick, I really like. I'm using LauncherPro with it at the moment and some LiveWallpaper (Until I could either find or make one, as I Photoshop. <3) Anyway, it's pretty easy to install/flash. I'm a total noob when it comes to Android, but I'm learning, and the tutorials posted here a pretty easy to follow, so.. I recommend Nero v3. :D
[Vibrant General] bossman137:
NERO 4 is here!!!!

I am testing but i am assuming all the mods here would apply to n4, oh baby it is so worth it, HUGE performance improvements. See first post and follow same pre flashing guidelines. To disable voodoo, clockwork boot to red, click voodoo, and disable, thats it :)

Go have at it boys and girls!!!

Hey guys. I'm using perception 9.5 at the moment and almost every time I try to send a text it says "send failed". Anyone else having this problem? So frustrating
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] used2hvatreo:
I would recommend you reflash and master clear just to be safe. I have had no problems at all. You can try flashing the modem again, but it will be less trouble just to go to stock and then reflash over it. I have absolutely no problems so I don't believe its a rom problem
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wvumaniac79:
Ok i'll try that. I'm hoping that the nexus port didnt like corrupt my sim or anything. lol
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wvumaniac79:
Ok reflashed and the problems gone.

Edit: It returned, its definitely not the rom, even tried other roms. Looks like im going to have to see if I can get a new at&t sim tomorrow

How long does it normally take HTC to release kernel source? Are they behind on this one or what? :confused: I'm dieing to take advantage of some of the early gingerbread stuff, some of the HD ports and of course some over-clocking and better battery life, but cant. Unless i want to lose my camera. It seems like these 0004 and late 0003 hardware revisions have been out for quite a while with no kernel source love. Come on HTC, I'm dieing over here!!!!:mad: :D
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nugzo:
anybody know how long it normally takes?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] #Winning#:
I may stand corrected here, but I believe that the source tree for Htc#17 was released recently. I think I read something about it in the netarchy thread but don't quote me on it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fixxxer2008:
try the sbc no have 4.2.2 kernel. it works fine on a 004 evo.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deathsled:
I have a late 003 model with the new camera and don't have any camera problems when I try new stuff out. Have you actually TRIED flashing any of these things you want?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nugzo:
Try every day. Thats also why i made this thread and bumped it the next day, because i haven't actually tried any of the stuff i'm complaining about. I'm not talking about sense custom roms, they normally all work. My 0004 Camera doesnt work with the bundled kernel of any gingerbread rom, or any CM6 rom. Also it doesnt work with any of the NEW sense ports from the HD devices. I will try the 4.2.2 like suggested earlier, hopefully that'll do it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nugzo:
Kernel works ok, the camera doesn't. I'm downloading another sense rom and will try 4.2.2 with it. I would have thought overclocking and camera would have been big news for 004 hardware. I've been on XDA everyday since i got my 0004 and haven't seen anything anywhere about custom kernel for 0004. PLEASE prove me wrong :) :D

Tried 2 more roms with the sbc 4.2.2 no havs, rom boots, but no camera. Can you please verify your comment? thanks so much :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dwertz:
Have you tried flashing the stock kernel then flashing a universal kernel. (of course after reboot). Supposedly it copies your drivers from the previous kernel
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nugzo:
I couldnt find anything on that. I would have thought that would have been a big deal. That was the first kernel with HTC's 30fps fix, and source would explain how they did it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nugzo:
Well a lot the roms i use have the stock kernel from the beginning, well atleast all the regular sense roms. Most of the devs have been using the 15 or 17 as their base kernel. so to answer the question, YES i have, twice today. Still no camera. Thanks for the suggestion.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dwertz:
but the roms you have tried with the stock kernel is the kernel for hardware 004? I think they #15 is the one for 004 http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=9875223&postcount=2

HAve you tried Calkulins EViO http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=811695 It has the camera working for 004. They pushed some drivers that was needed for the camera. If you read the details in the post it shows which drivers were copied. I dont remember which post but probably 100 back from the end.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drmacinyasha:
1) HTC is breaking the law by not immediately releasing the kernel source when the OTA hit production status. That's why the Gingerbread source came out right when the Nexus S, the first Gingerbread-running production device, went on sale.

2) Toastcfh has said that if HTC hasn't released the kernel source by then, he will work on getting the 004/late-003 camera drivers working as soon as he and Shinzul finish off WiMax for AOSP/CM.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nugzo:
The camera will work with that particular HD rom. It is using the HTC #17 kernel which works 100% with 004. I'll see if i cant find what you were talking about in that thread though.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nugzo:
I wonder why they are bein so stingy with the new Evo Kernels. You reckon it has something to do with the fps fix? I bet they used the same fix we were already using and are trying to keep a lid on it lol.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drmacinyasha:
Nope, they actually used a different fix for that. They're just being flat-out douchebags. You can find more information here.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dwertz:
Not sure if this will work http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=9572828&postcount=384
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nugzo:
Interesting read, Thanks. So i guess the earlier poster with the supposed late 0003 that is working with everything isnt actually a new camera 0003.. Didnt think i missed the source on that one, its kind of a big deal! There will be a ton of new custom kernels when the source is released due to the excellent battery on the newer kernels. Not to mention the 0004 support.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drmacinyasha:
Precisely. Some of the 003's, and most (but not all) of the 004's use the new camera, which had the drivers added in 3.30.651.3 (and .5). That's the kernel we really need, as it affects AOSP ROMs too, like CyanogenMod. Getting 3.70.651.1 is necessary too though for Sense users, to get like you said, the battery and speed improvements.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nugzo:
Thanks Dwertz for all of your effort. That post was basically to get cameras working on the HD ports with the stock kernel. Not really what i'm looking for, but again thanks. As you can see this thread has some more concrete info now and like i thought, we are still a nogo for custom kernels and 0004 hardware. We are approaching 120 days. It should happen any day now... My fingers are crossed :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sgt. slaughter:
That and you gotta think that they might of released the source by now if they didn't run into the multiple OTA's recently. maybe they decided to hold off and just release the latest one instead of releasing back to back sources when one would be obsolete.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nugzo:
possible.. Makes sense. no pun intended... they keep releasing new OTA's so the time frame in which they release source, typically 90-120 days according to HTC, keeps being reset with new software. How have they done it in the past? do they generally release source for a superseded OTA?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sgt. slaughter:
no clue. but if I were them I'd rather take the time to just release 1 rather than spend the time putting multiple ones up with marginal fixes between them within a short period of time.

I am having serious problems with my ability to access web pages. After i click the web icon on my homescreen, I type in the web page I want and it goes to it. However, 2 seconds later it kicks me out and closes itself and takes me back to the home screen. I can download games and apps fine, so I know my internet is working, it's just frustrating now my internet doesn't work. I flashed it with TNT Lite and installed Titanium backup. I have tried to reboot it a couple times and my web browser still does not work. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

You might want to try a different browser than the default. I have stock 3053 and it occasionally dies and goes back to HOME. It sounds like you can access market? If that's the case, try Xscope browser trial.

I have root explorer on it so I decided to delete some of the stock apps but when I do they keep reappearing like gmail, nascar and some others. Its strange they delete but when I reboot they just come back. I delete the apk file and the odex if it has one but they keep coming back. Any thoughts on this?

[Windows Phone 7 General] deadwrong03:
from what you guys have experienced so far with whats out there hows the battery life on the phones you guys are using? is it better than the battery life on the touch pro 2? how does it compare with android and iphone battery life?
[Windows Phone 7 General] knave:
I personally think my Mozart's battery life is better than my 3GS, both in its iOSv3 and iOSv4 incarnations.

Or maybe its because of the lack of battery percentage labels (whereas the iOSv3 onwards has this) that I had "unfairly" diagnosed this.

Nevertheless, I think you should check out Anandtech's review, which covers battery life. However that will just give you a rough gauge. Alot still depends on your own usage.
[Windows Phone 7 General] adesonic:
My hd7 beats my htc desire by about 10%
[Windows Phone 7 General] tiwas:
Trophy 7 seems to be the same as HD2 when wireless and bluetooth are off. However, when I turn wireless and/or bluetooth on, the Trophy 7 is way better than the hd2
[Windows Phone 7 General] thesecondsfade:
HD7 has been pretty up and down for me versus my old TP2 or HD2. Sometimes it's better, sometimes it's not. Last night, I left it unplugged for like 6 hours on standby and the entire battery was drained in the morning... but that only happened once in the week since I've had it. I'm not really sure to be honest.
[Windows Phone 7 General] BIG-Stan:
Im really positively surprised about the battery life on my omnia 7. I have 2 exchange accounts on push, a bunch of location services and apps on all the time.

With medium usage I get about 1 1/2 days and if I dont touch the phone and just leave it running with all the services and exchange, I almost get 3 days of battery life.

For me it's pretty good. Had a bunch of smartphones in the last few years and this one lasts the longest. Even my gf's iphone4 doesnt last that much...
[Windows Phone 7 General] makoute:
The HD7s could be much better from my experience with it.
[Windows Phone 7 General] mtem1985:
The battery life of my Trophy depends on the signal rate.

At home I get easily 2 day's with one charge, thats with some calling, texting, internet, marketplace, video/music.

But at work where the signal is really low, i hardly get one day :S
[Windows Phone 7 General] nrfitchett4:
it has a battery, when it gets low, I plug it in....

Really, battery life is always gonna be one of those, YMMV things.

Depends on signal strength, how often the screen is on, how often you actually use your phone, screen backlight settings.

I will never let battery life be the determining factor on purchasing a phone. I keep a charger in my car, a charger at work, and if needed, I'd buy extra batteries and a charging station. I haven't done that yet, so battery life for me is OK.
