[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tenorntex:
There are a lot of factors that make up that high of score. I could be wrong, but any additional apps that are installed slow down the score. Background apps running, type of installation, speed of internal SD card, speed of CPU. I am sure that there are other tweaks that will come down the road, or maybe not (a Developer has to keep some secrets to himself). I myself get anywhere from 2000-2500 on average. Keep in mind that the base install of Dell's 1.6 only gets about 800, so anything over that is a bonus. You are getting double that of a new Streak out of the box. As more Roms come out, the better and faster you can customize it to your liking.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bash_array:
1. Install setcpu app

2. overclock to 1.26ghz

3. change from on demand to performance

4. Turn off wifi, blutooth and 3G radio

5. Uninstall any apps you don't use

6. set your LCD density to 240

7. free up as much memory as possible by shutting down memory hogs like gmail and browser

8. don't clear cache.

Do all of these things and you will be humming at 2500+ in no time. I gaurantee you that steve got 3000 on a base system with absolutely nothing running and has a quick processor... all processors are not created equal. Some are fast and some are average

Hoi Hoi people

i got myself a GT540 Optimus <yes total newbeee to android>

It came with a deal for free and its my 1st android :0

anyway

After USING the official way (silly me :) )to update I now have some odd Portuguese apps installed ? Stuff from SAPO.pt ???

I didn't do any Sync backup as i just got the phone and its basically empty

I used the Updater tool from LG connected and all went well But after I look I was able to change the language to ENG but it has quiet a few Portuguese Apps installed...

I am in Holland so i cannot see how this updater decided to give me a POR image ?

Now i could make a guess and say the IMEI is for Portuguese market(?) and the dutch INTERNET cheapo middleman I got the deal from has bought a bunch on the gray market ..

Whatever it is i don't care

I would like you guys now to point me the right way

I just flash the thing myself

I think the tool i need is called KDZ ?

Please someone point me to the right post I am looking but seem to get nowhere

just more confused :)

Thanks guys

B.T.W I am not too inept . I am used to flashin me HTC HD all the time ..

My 1st and last lg phone ?/

What kind of rubbish is this

u update using the official LG tool and they play a freckin foreign rom onto my LG (SAPO.PT) then I cant update it at all anymore using the tool . So i look for alternatives but thats just made it worse ...

Really really poor this ..

Now ...I followed the guide but it didn't work ..well it did until restarted

My lg is now black. Dead ! doesn't start up at all !

Doesn't start no-matter what i try !

not even emergency mode.

And no guys I read the instruction word for word !!!!

I followed it to the letter !!!!! and the update did work ..Just now it doesn't start at all anymore.

I should of known reading around

there are too many update ways people are doing this ..Hack tool or original KDZ ..or just Black system way ..Too many loopholes for things to go wrong ..but now too late
[GT540 Optimus General] MegaBubbletea:

Try a reflash...

And...

Don;t forget to install Fastboot drivers.

MY LG doesn't even start anymore after using the Hack tool to upgrade it ...

SO its futile ??

I cant start the phone at all ...

After following yesterdays advice Its dead ..

Great init :)
[GT540 Optimus General] MegaBubbletea:
Oh dang. Doesn't even turn on? No LG boot logo?

Well...if it's bricked...the only three ways are:

1) Get it repaired/replaced.

2) Buy a new phone.

3) Use it as a paperweight.

[GT540 Optimus General] MegaBubbletea:
You can try by pulling out your battery, SIM card and SD card...

Note to you: Try everything that is possible and don't give up. Maybe you will fix it if you try.
[GT540 Optimus General] contact303:
Yes of course man I ll try thanks for the encouragement :) and your effort

[GT540 Optimus General] MegaBubbletea:
Try getting into Emergency/Download mode by holding down "Volume Down" button and plugging into PC.

After that...try reflashing.

Do this solve the problem of getting low memory space msg on your phone?
[Wildfire Android Development] 3xeno:
You will have to install the Apps2SD Script after this, and move the apps and dalvik cache to the SD card after this guide, to move your apps to SD and remove the low mem space message.
[Wildfire Android Development] pyroblazer:
3xeno is right..u need to flash the script... alternatively what u can do is that flash a rom that already has apps2sd in it...

ex:- wildpuzzle,ds,CM6&7...etc..

CWM Method works. That is what I did on my Wildfire to enable DTApps2SD, and no issues.

EDIT: I meant ROM Manager. :p
[Wildfire Android Development] aq79:
I also used ROM manager to create swap partition for Wildpuzzel ROM but after didn't know that ROM manager can create Ext-3 or Ext-4 partitions

Thanks for clarification
[Wildfire Android Development] 3xeno:
It's EXT-3 only AFAIK. But, DTApps2SD can convert EXT3 to EXT4 (Or EXT2 to EXT3). You can take a look here:

[G2 and Desire Z General] konoplya:
Ok I got my G2 when it first came out. Used the old rage method to get S-OFF and perma root. Now i'm reading people say that they have "real" S-OFF and real permaroot. Do I have to do the "gfree" method now or is my phone good as it is?

I understand that with gfree you can unlock your SIM and you can switch between S-OFF and S-ON.. I'd like to have those functions. How should I go about it? Do I do a factory reset to go back to stock and unroot and then use gfree method or is there a simpler way to do it?

Here's what I have right now:

Stock rom, I NEVER installed any OTA's.

I have Baconbits.

My baseband is: 12.22.60.09bU_26.02.01.15_M2

Kernel: 2.6.32.21-cyanogenmod shade@toxygene#1

Build #: 1.19.531.1 CL255798 release-keys

Thanks for all the help.
[G2 and Desire Z General] dhkr234:
Since you have root and a stock rom installed, just run gfree -- that is ALL you need to do. The advantage, aside from unlocking the radio, is that with the proper s-off, there is some new security for the radio... for unbricking and for being able to withstand accidental OTA updates. A true radio s-off can take an OTA update containing BOTH an SPL and a Radio, and yet s-off remains.
[G2 and Desire Z General] PatrickHuey:
I'm in the same boat as the OP. How do i go about just running gfree?

sent from my V I S I O N.
[G2 and Desire Z General] elracing21:
Well I'm rooted with the old method as well but because I I cant flash cwm 3.x with the gree method. You need the eng hboot so ill stick with the old method until clockwork makes it work with the gfree method.

Sent from my gSpot2
[G2 and Desire Z General] steviewevie:
See the Wiki for details. Assuming you are running a kernel where gfree works (again, see the Wiki on this), you just need a root shell on your phone, copy gfree to your phone (e.g. via adb push), then run gfree with the appropriate options, e.g. "./gfree -f".

Sent from my HTC Desire Z
[G2 and Desire Z General] ianmcquinn:
Using gfree does not get rid of the engineering hboot (or modify your existing hboot in anyway), so it's safe to do. And even if this was not the case, you can still flash the CWM3 recovery without the engineering hboot, only you'll have to use a different method than fastboot.
[G2 and Desire Z General] konoplya:
thanks for responding. so this will work even though i dont have a stock kernel?

also, as far as OTA's go, you mean that if after i run gfree i will be able to apply the OTA without it unrooting my phone?

thank you
[G2 and Desire Z General] steviewevie:
Not sure about Baconbits, check the Wiki for the list of kernels that are known not to work with gfree.

If you apply the OTA after unlocking with gfree, you will still lose root but you won't lose the S-OFF and other stuff from gfree.

Sent from my HTC Desire Z
[G2 and Desire Z General] konoplya:
ok, i see. so if i loose root would i just have to run gfree again after I install OTA to gain root back?
[G2 and Desire Z General] steviewevie:
Not just gfree on its own, but you will need to go through the steps of getting temp root then perm root, which does use gfree as part of it. It's all in the Wiki.
[G2 and Desire Z General] dhkr234:
gfree does NOT root your phone. It UNLOCKS RADIO SECURITY -- permanently. You only run it ONCE, you NEVER have to run it again... EVER.

With UNLOCKED RADIO SECURITY, gaining root is TRIVIAL.

What gets root is RAGE or PSNEUTER.
[G2 and Desire Z General] steviewevie:
Yeah but gfree is often used as part of the rooting process, so I can see why people associate gfree with rooting.

gfree might be run more than once on a phone as part of the process to lock in root, i.e. to defeat the NAND write protection. Even though it's only needed once to unlock the radio etc, you might run it other times if you need to root a stock ROM and updates to that ROM.

gfree can be used to unlock radio security, but it has other options too. Sorry but I think your reply might confuse more people than it helps.

Help me please! I tried to find my answer, but i'm not sure.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krakout:
Hello!

So, I have a DHD with the Revolution HD ROM (2.0.8) and the Buzz Sense kernel. I have locked the CPU to min/max 1516MHz Perf. scaling and, upon running the AnTutu System Review 1.2("System Benchmark" under Market) I get a score of 1879.

Yet in the Rankings I see that the #2 device is a DHD with 2.2 @1516MHz with a whopping score of 2774!!!!!

So, how could I reach those heights? The only thing I can think of is the slow SD card that came with the mobile (read/write scores: 34/117), but other than that what could be holding me back?

Cheers

T
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jkoljo:
I have reached pretty high scores while testing, but then the overall rom smoothness has pretty much sucked. It is normal that synthetic benchmarks give lower results when you use a custom rom, the optimizations that ensure general smoothness and usability cause it. One big reason is CPU scheduling, in custom rom (custom kernel) cpu time is divided for each task in a different way, thus reducing the overall benchmark score.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krakout:
Aha... but then this means that this or the other ROM do not let a specific app (say, a heavy 3D game) take the phone to its full potential...
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jkoljo:
Incorrect, it is just the synthetic benchmark that suffers. Games will run fine, faster than stock.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tolis626:
Jkoljo's right.The overall system speed is much better,performance is better,but it sucks a little in benchmarks.If you are so desperate to see high benchmark scores(I was once too! :p )try kamma's 1.4 kernel.Quadrant 3200.Need I say more? :D
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krakout:
Really? 3200? Wow. Just out of curiosity, what scores are you getting with other kernels?

Well, at the end of the day, it doesn't matter - I haven't seen an app or game that runs slow or choppy or whatever. It's just for the heck of it :D
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tolis626:
Oh yeah,I know what tou mean! :D

Anyway,with Lee's and Apache's kernels I get about 2500-2600 in Quadrant.CPU clocked all the way up to 1.5 GHz of course! :cool:

In Settings, Applications, Manage Apps, I usually go to the "All" option. There, I can find any third party launcher apps I installed.

What method is safest and what are the benifits of not permarooting
[Vibrant General] checktheemails:
Hello,

I really love the screen on this phone, the hardware capabilities (720p rec, etc.) and although newer and better processors in phones are coming out I like this 1 enough to hold me over for a long time.

so here is my issue:

I purchased my vibrant about 2 weeks after came out, and the biggest problem I faced initially was the problem with the gps. At this point I have not even use gps is the first month I bought it, instead I just use google maps in follow the directions it gives me.

Since that time, I have rooted my phone. I was really happy to get the first update that was rolled out, even though it was rooted. I have heard of all the difference solutions to fix the gps but is it really worth the effort to practically void my warranty even further than rooting it by opening it up and trying to solder whatever antenna is in there.

Now I know my phone is covered under samsung warranty. I should also mention the other big problem I have with it is the battery life. If I can fix these 2 issues I would love the phone forever.

here's my question:

is it feasible and worth the effort to get my phone returned back to samsung so that the battery and gps are of the newest generation?

does anyone have experience doing this and how willing is samsung to work with me?

Finally if I do end up getting a replacement then I know I will have to un root my phone before I send it to samsung. I'm not stupid but I just haven't flashed any roms before. if I did get my phone back to stock settings, then would I lose all of the applications and I paid for and all the customization I have done to the phone (contacts, accounts, data)?

also just curious but I haven't received the 2.2 over the air update yet am I even going to get it since my phone is rooted? I figure I may as well try 2.2 before I actually send in the phone.

I know these are a lot of questions but I really like this phone and I want to get it to work.

thank you and I appreciate any suggestions or advice for me.
[Vibrant General] ColorNapkin:
New and old Vibrants alike have GPS problem.

I don't have an answer to all your questions, but what I can tell you is that you should not wait for your phone to update to 2.2 because it is an over-the-air update.

Follow these instructions if you want to update your phone:

[Vibrant General] zharptitza:
As far as I've heard the newer ones after 10/10 don't seem to have the same problem. It may be worth it to take it to the store and show them how bad the GPS is. They may exchange it for you. I'd unroot and go back to stock first.

That won't address the battery issue, but that's generic to most of these newer phones. You can do tweaks to get more life out of them, but that seems to be about it.
[Vibrant General] checktheemails:
if I unroot and go back to stock is it going to erase my applications and contacts, and settings?

I bought it online so I would have to send it back to letstalk.com, I'll have to check out the return policy.
