I get consistently over 3.8mbps dow now. Thats almost 1 mbps morw than my average before the update. I wrote in another thread wifi reception was better as well.

I think youre just expweienving some placebo effect. Happens a lot to people who use lag fixes and stuff.
[Vibrant General] bb4ninja:
I was wondering the exact same thing. Im running Nero v5 and was debating weather to revert back to stock and do the 2.2 update
[Vibrant General] ludeboye:
It is very stable for me, upgraded from stock 2.1 am pleased my gps never worked anyways so meh.
[Vibrant General] Phrack:
I upgraded from stock ji6 so that's the only rom I have to compare with. It was a nail-biting experience since kies wouldn't pick up my phone thanks to Tmobile leaving out the minor detail that USB debugging had to be enabled. Midway during the upgrade process kies crapped out with an error saying upgrade failed. Phone would only boot into emergency recovery and was luckily able to use the kies recovery option to finish. Phew! I've flashed phones before but they were always spares so I didn't care if they bricked or not - this is my first time flashing my main phone.

Ka6 is a definite improvement over ji6. The one thing I noticed immediately is lag is gone!! ji6 used to go from 3g to edge for no apparent reason, now it stays on 3g. Haven't noticed any difference in the transfer speeds in 3g or wifi, seems about the same. Built-in wifi and usb tethering is nice, and much improved copy paste. Different colors, GPS still is meh. I was using my Garmin for 2 years before I got this phone so I never really cared about the GPS. Aside from built-in flash all the other changes appear to be cosmetic. Media scanner seems quicker.

If you're still on stock ji6 the upgrade to froyo is definitely worth. If you're running a custom rom like Nero, Axura etc. I guess you should stay with it. You upgraded to a custom rom because you obviously put a custom rom on your phone because you didn't like stock!:p

I flashed my x10 to android 2.1. After doing that when i connect my phone and use Sony's PC Companion software then the software brings up a message which says "there is an update available" and asks for me to update. I am on AT&T in USA and i know that AT&T has not released any 2.1 update for x10 yet. So what update is PC companion giving me???

Any ideas????

Anyone know if there is a way to improve camera quality on ASOP ROMS? I have flashed many sense and ASOP ROMS. The one constant that I have noticed is sense roms take way bettet pictures. Anything I can do to improve the quality on asop roms? A different camera app perhaps. Thanks in advanced for any assistance.
[General Questions and Answers] solidkevin:
So heres the deal, Im on att and already upgraded so I will have to buy either outright, overall I'd say the Atrix bests the Arc in specs but the design of the Arc is fantastic imo and it has a better screen and im gonna assume the camera will be better, im just not sure though, also theres the question of release date and price, anyone have any ideas when these phones will come and how much on eBay? Also do you think that the Arc will make it to att or at least a 3g compatible version at launch? I know people are gonna say avoid SE but I like them and I liked the X10, only thing that annoyed me was no MT.

Anyway what do you guys think? I really need a new phone as I am using a 3GS after my captivate broke, its not bad but I really miss Android.
[General Questions and Answers] OGCF:
Well you like Android so I'm not gonna go into the pros/cons of the OS. Just these two devices.

Xperia Arc (Should be out by April, most likely WON'T support AT&T 3G)

Pros:

-Good quality camera

-Thin and sleek

-4" Screen (not too big, not too small)

-Great screen BUT there's only a major difference when playing videos or looking at photos. Besides that, it's just a normal but good quality LCD.

-Gingerbread 2.3

Cons:

-Sony Ericsson put a skin on it

-Sony Ericsson has a spotty history with updates (I'm sure you know that being a X10 owner).

-Probably just as expensive as the Atrix thanks to the "Sony tax".

Motorola Atrix (Should be out by March, launching on AT&T)

Pros:

-Tegra 2 = total beast and the fastest thing out there.

-4" Screen (not too big, not too small)

-Screen resolution of 540x960 (qHD) -- the highest res screen of any Android device.

-Motorola is better than most to provide software updates.

-Crazy WebTop app and Laptop 'Dock'

-1930mah battery -- largest of any Android device.

-HSPA+ so you get 4G-like speeds.

-Front-facing camera

Cons:

-Motorola's abortion of a skin is on there.

-Froyo 2.2 and no idea of when upgrade will come.

-WebTop app looks cool, but could still suck.

-Despite large battery, Tegra 2 is under the hood and that could suck some battery really quickly.
[General Questions and Answers] canadariot2312:
Do you like MotoBLUR or whateverskinSonyEriccsonhasontheirGingerbread? I personally think MotoBLUR is complete crap and the fact that AT&T is not known for updating their phones rather quickly might be a roadblock. Than there is the locked bootloader if you don't plan on doing much with custom roms.

In all seriousness, there is no way in hell that the Atrix will have a better camera than the Arc, mainly because Cybershot cameras usually take phenomenal photos (tested with two Cybershots) and the Arc kind of has the censor from the Cybershots. The Arc might be the best camera orientated Android phone despite the lack of 1080p video recording. Motorola isn't really known for having good cameras, but they are known for using gorilla glass on most of their phones, so I am assuming the Atrix has that.

Depends on your preference really. I would personally go with the Arc and hope that SE is true to their word about updating their phones.

Atrix will come by March 1st.

Arc will come April.

Most unlocked phones have AT&T bands, so I wouldn't expect the Arc to be any different.
[General Questions and Answers] FLAC Vest:
I would definitely go for the Atrix. Im on ATT too but I upgraded last june to the captivate so I will be waiting as well.

However, I would definitely get the atrix because of the specs and docking capability.
[General Questions and Answers] solidkevin:
Well im leaning towards the arc as I like SE and imo they make the best looking phones, and that silver one is...wow! Only thing I need a confirmation is price, date and most important if it will have 3g bands, im willing to wait but not till the mddle if the year either lol
[General Questions and Answers] antonymilo:
my question as well...arc or atrix?
[General Questions and Answers] Ryukenden:
I would go with Sony, mainky because i own X8 aswell and it proved to be a quite nice phone for the price range it has.

Yea, updates are Sony's biggest con, but besides that i had no real problems with it :) All their devices i had run pretty nice and smooth
[General Questions and Answers] jul644:
Defiantly arc the looks of it are awesome plus it'll have 3 rd gen snap dragon soc won't be as powerful as atrix but the is like no apps that really use dual core but wait and see as for me battery life is huge
[General Questions and Answers] Moandal:
It's funny how peoples' tastes differ. I think SE phones look horrible, especially the Arc. Also, in a few months time phones with single-core processors will seem so out-of-date.

Motorola Atrix for me.
[General Questions and Answers] solidkevin:
lol it is funny, I love Sony's phones, they always look different from the competition as well instead of an iphone wannabe, Atrix looks so....common.
[General Questions and Answers] Zaslav:
Wait and watch the forums on XDA see which phone gets rooted first/more easily and see which phone is more easily modded.

I had the X10 and while it's a great phone the lack of support from SE really annoyed me and the fact that they locked that phone down like crazy was even more frustrating.
[General Questions and Answers] Ryukenden:
True, but as every phone out there, X10 will get unlocked properly sooner or later. Wasn't much of a factor here when i was buying my Xperia X8
[General Questions and Answers] haydarm:
Not true, I had a Motorola Milestone (European version of the Droid) and that never was properly unlocked-- still a great phone for it's time through, despite its weaknesses.

Anyways, to actually answer the question, the Atrix is a beast. 16gb internal storage is fantastic. Super fast processor. Both Sony and Motorola have pretty crappy track records when it comes to customer support, so don't expect much from either company on that front. I'd go with the Atrix.
[General Questions and Answers] lmcdesign:
Atrix is way better. I dont trust sony phones....
[General Questions and Answers] norge-xda:
I can talk about SE Arc 'cause I personally use this device atm

I'm really satisfied for its functions, pros:

a) weight, it's so light

b) good media section (camera, music player...just radio is pretty poor in tuning)

c) pack (two usb cables, one for charging, the other for car charging - car charger included - screen protection - nice headphones)

d) display (wide enough and natural colors)

e) design (IMHO, the best form factor atm)

finding update package...

I just want to know if I can pull the battery and start over, I do have the three button combo to get into download mode.

Here's what I did:

1. odin one click to jf6

2. master clear

3. put clockworkmod update.zip and cog zip on sd

4. booted into recovery

5. reinstalled packages, twice

6. selected install zip from sd and picked the cog file

7. got stuck

Thanks for any help

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
If you have been stuck that long what choice do you have but a bat pull. Worst case you may have to use odin again.

There its a chance your rom package its corrupted or no good
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] capn1:
Thanks for the reply. I've been slowly coming to the conclusion that I need to pull the battery hoping that since it never found a package it might be ok.

I have used that cog file before but it could have been corrupted when I put it on the phone this time.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] capn1:
update

So I pulled the battery, rebooted right back into recovery and did everything the same but this time it stayed on "finding update package" for about .1 seconds.

I heard the voodoo voice and I see the cognition screen so I guess I'm good now. Weird, never had that happen before

[G Tablet General] DudeInMyrtleBeach:
I didn't see it posted anywhere here, but if you install the Twonky DLNA client, you can stream every piece of media that is on a Windows 7 Media Center PC. I just installed it, and watched several movies, listened to music, and could see all my photos. Didn't do anything at all to the Win 7 box. It just worked...
[G Tablet General] oomwrtu:
Cool thanks for sharing. So many projects I could be doing... where do I start? Ha!
[G Tablet General] rob_z11:

[G Tablet General] DudeInMyrtleBeach:
It called "Twonky Mobile". It's in the Market.
[G Tablet General] rob_z11:
Ok, then I have downloaded the right one. Are you running anything on win7 media center at all? My tablet can't find my window 7 share.
[G Tablet General] DudeInMyrtleBeach:
Twonky didn't look for Windows Shares -- it connected via DLNA. I don't have my content shared via SMB shares on my HTPC. Twonky saw the HTPC, connected to it, and lets me browse via DLNA...

I'm running vegan on my gtab. Don't know if that matters or not...
[G Tablet General] doctorisin:

Dudeinmyrtlebeach...do you have an xbox or other device setup to stream to? The mediacenter PC might not run the server if no extenders are setup.
[G Tablet General] seymour_butts:
Make sure u have wmp with the option to stream over the network. Only then u will see your pc in twonky
[G Tablet General] rob_z11:
Thanks. I will try that.
[G Tablet General] DudeInMyrtleBeach:
XBOX... I'll bet that's what it is.. I have 2 of 'em set up as extenders. I also have a couple of other tablets (Motion LE's) running Windows 7 that connect to the media center pc.

Maybe that's what it is...
[G Tablet General] DudeInMyrtleBeach:
... and I just tried Twonky on my Droid X, and it didn't see my HTPC... I have no idea what gives. Rebooting the X...
[G Tablet General] seymour_butts:
Have u checked the allow streaming option on windows media player? I had to let it finish the library scanning before i could see my htpc on gtablet
[G Tablet General] DudeInMyrtleBeach:
It works fine on my gtab. Doesn't work at all on the X... No idea...
[G Tablet General] Neoprimal:
If you don't like Twonky, there are other options as well.

Upnplay is really good and free as well.

2player is a dlna/upnp client but more focused on music. I like that it can play Windows Media Playlists.

Eyecontrol and Andromote are dlna players that also allow you to control where your media is playing to - so for example you can use it to tell your PC to play something on your TV, or your phone to play something to your radio - etc. etc. etc.

Great DLNA or Streaming software examples are TVersity, which you can put on your PC - share everything you want to share to and it will automatically convert the file if necessary to whatever you're using to stream from it.

PlayOn is like Tversity but the free part allows you to stream only from your local media collection. If you pay for a license, it allows you to watch Hulu/Netflix etc. on your DLNA client. I don't know if this works.

Orb is like a mashup of Tversity and Upnplay in that it streams almost anything to your device - the main difference is that you can achieve the functionality of doing it through the internet at default, whereas the other products are geared primarily as in-network solutions.

Twonky is finicky at best. I have it on my Mytouch 4G and sometimes it works great while at others it stops randomly. This is what lead me to looking for alternatives.

Good Luck.
[G Tablet General] doctorisin:
Twonky

Thanks for the tip, Dude... it is working now, I can see my pics/music and videos... now my desktop is useful again (as a media server for my GTab!) :)
[G Tablet General] Jack Daddy:
Orb Fc for me. Vegan 5.1
[G Tablet General] rob_z11:
I have done that on Windows Media Player which has all of my libraray in it, but still can't see the list using TWonky or other DLNA player. I have enabled WMP to stream, and still don't see any libraries.

[General Questions and Answers] dreamplant2:
I have HTC HD2 with original firmware(ROM), but I installed CoOkie home tab. Recently I also installed a navigation software called Papago X3 which is PDA version, not HD2 version.

My problem is that I like Footprint and would like to link it with papago x3, and here is the issue.

In my Footprint version,

The 1st icon (for address) looks like triangle in the middle of a circle; once you click it, default setup is to open google map and then show me the location.

The 2nd icon(for TEL#); once you click it, the TEL# will be dialed.

The 3rd icon looks like a earth; once you click it, it opens up Opera and link to the website.

The 4th icon with 4 arrows in the middle of a circle; once you click it, default setup is open google map and show the location.

It’s very obvious that the function for 1st icon and 4th icon is the same or say duplicate.

So the issue is that if anyone knows how to make the 1st icon be able to open Papago X3, and then navigate the specific place on Footprint as my destination?
