[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] distortedloop:
The steps should be the same. Basic concept is:

Get the drivers for windows by installing the sdk or pdanet.

Fastboot oem unlock the phone (totally wipes your phone, including pics and stuff on sdcard).

Fastboot flash the clockwork recovery image.

Apply the superuser installation zip while in clockwork recovery.

Oh and does anyone know if you can install a theme on stock 2.3.3 without using a custom ROM? Basically I just want custom kernel with a theme on top of stock 2.3.3 thanks for all your help people.

I believe you need to be deodexed to install themes...

Did you root yet? Any problems?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benrees21:
Yes rooted and installed Netarchy kernal and Honeycomb boot screen lol. Any apps i must have on a rooted device? and is there anyway to theme without installing a ROM?

EDIT: Think i noticed a mistake in 2.3.3, When connected to USB it says "Turn off USB storage" when it should say "Turn on USB storage" - bit weird.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Master™:
Thats a GRI54 bug ;)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benrees21:
So any apps I should have now I'm rooted?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] distortedloop:
Titanium backup, root explorer, shoot me or drocap2, quick boot, ROM Mgr, adb Wireless...

And, again, you have to de-odex services.jar to theme. You have to de-odex everything else to do that, so no, you can't on a stock rom out of the box, but you can get a deodexed stock rom mod. Everything's stock except the odex stuff has been shoved back into the apks.

Hello everyone, I wanted to post a mini tutorial because I think this little app deserves more success on HD MINI terminal that offers much potential for this hidden

I did test both version 1.50 and the 09.925-plus is I have to say that 1.50 seems to work best.

Both should not be installed but only extracted folders. Then just make a link to the programs (I use Resco Explorer).

Let Settings:

1. You start the program (I do not use autostart)

- you can have two types of screens: the default or by going to Options / Special debug / gui switch sense -..... and the same to return to the previous display.

2. Sensor can be seen in the various settings of our sense MINI HD.

Other important features are the function potrait - landscape and automatic on / off automatic screen.

3.AUTOMATIC Potrait-LANDASCAPE at any angle is automatic !!!!! (my rom - 2:40 nsourm ver - build 23152 CHT NO-CLEAN.

4. Tap Events can make various automatic functions: it gives an example for turning off the screen.

In the picture are intuitive user-friendly settings .......

screenshotx1

5. I had a little problem in re-opening the program (it is obvious that work must remain resident in memory):

Buttons go on and add the function to the movement chose .......

I did several tests el single button that works is the backspace key. I chose 2x. Personally only starts after opening RESCO EXPLORER!! Do not know ....

screenshotx3 -

After finishing the settings (buttons, etc. events gps .....) - press button (hide) because the prog, remain resident in memory.

I hope can be helpful. Just a thank you is greatly appreciated.

Hi

I have a hopefully really easy question. I have tried both searching this forum and googling it but I can't really find an easy solution.

My problem is that when I use swype, the suggested words box is the stock black/grey but somehow the text shown in it is also black. Thus I can only read every other word. Is there any easy solution for changing the font color? Or the lighten up the background?

I tried following this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=838269 but I couldn't get it working properly.

I am running Insanity ROM on SGS if that matters
[Wildfire General] echolock:
Hi all,

Got my girlfriend a Wildfire a while ago and while she generally likes it she does complain it runs a bit slowly now and again - general things like unresponsive keyboard and slow to load the SMS app.

The phone is on the latest stock T-Mobile 2.2 ROM and generally I'd like to keep it that way (don't really want to downgrade it to be able to run a custom ROM). I do have one or two questions;

1) Will installing something like LauncherPro or ADW make the phone any faster? I understand Sense will still "be there" but I'm hoping it will be relegated to the background where it won't have as much impact on the rest of the phone. Am I right? She barely uses the homescreen so I can probably cut it down to one or two screens and save memory that way.

2) Will using a 3rd-party keyboard like Better Keyboard or SwiftKeys be more responsive than the standard HTC one? I don't really want to introduce her to Swype, think that's a bridge too far! :)

3) Would a 3rd-party SMS app like Chomp be quicker to use than the stock HTC app? I've checked the number of messages she has and to be honest it's not exactly a lot - she tends to delete ones she doesn't feel the need to keep.

Thanks all for your help.
[Wildfire General] mlotson:
Hmm for the first question try to clean up on the sd card then erase history with history eraser a.d then kill some processes with atk with stock i thing this is the only way to make it runs smoother, about the keyboard i advice gingerbread keyboard.

About the lpp, i dont thing on stock it will make phone runs smoother, htc sense still will be in back ground and also the stock's apps i.e. sms will be in use.

[Wildfire General] juan3211:
I want also to know this:

"1) Will installing something like LauncherPro or ADW make the phone any faster?

And I don't understand well the second post.

I can't root but I want to know if I can install LauncherPro in order to have a faster wildfire, but I've the same doubt as the initial post.

Does anybody know ?

Thanks a lot.
[Wildfire General] ErwinP:
I'm using launcher pro for a while now, and i think that using it instead of sense, makes android shut down htc sense (so both aren't running at the same time). Because when I clear the preferences of launcher pro afther using it a while, and then return to the htc sense, it has to reload my "desktop"..

But to be honest, it sometimes feels a bit faster then sense, but i'm not sure it realy is.

For the sms app: i think the fastest one is the stock one, but it is for sure not the nicest thing to work with. But that is a personal mather :)

Erwin
[Wildfire General] C4NCER:
I put Launcher Pro on my wife's wildfire and she seems to think it's faster and more responsive.
[Wildfire General] mlotson:
Maybe because of scrolling speed which made me thinking its faster aswell :p

Sense takes more memory. With LauncherPro or ADW seems to have more free mem. more memory = fast

Sense sms feel like slower then 3rd party one. At least it feel like:P
[Wildfire General] NickHu:
Sometimes you just gotta jump into the deep end to swim better. S-OFF it, root it, install CyanogenMod, overclock it, replace ADW with Launcher Pro, install Handcent (Faster than Chomp... Especially when you have over 10K SMSes xD), change LCD density, change theme. SHOOP. Done :)

And for the record, Swype is awesome.

Thanks :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Darkslider2k4:
there isnt the one and only Rom. Just try some and decide yourself.

I, for example, started with

1)

[ROM][GER][WM6.5.5] 05.04.10 German V14 Wm 6.5.5 23541 Sense 2.5 with Landscape

2)

|Feb 14|RAPH| .¸¸.·´¯`·.¸¸.-|Energy| 21916|28244 - Sense 2019 / 2.1 / Titanium GTX-Style

3)

and now I will try the

[ROM][PRO|FUZE][28244][06MAR11] TAEL ROM v6.28244 Final • FAST|STABLE|TWEAKED •

The second ROM was quite good, but I had a few problems with SMS so i decided after 4 months to give another ROM the chance to become myRom ;)

[Atrix 4G General] Mr.Kakarot:
Personally, I don't see the point of disabling everything that makes an Android fun and unique.... but, ill see how the battery is stock vs this once it arrives.

Thx
[Atrix 4G General] DarrellRaines:
You don't have to disable everything, but the things above such as the background data syncs serve no purpose other than to drain a battery. The sync will complete during the next wifi connection and by time you access your contacts it will be done. Besides it'd not like all your contacts change every 30 minutes.

The idea is not so much to limit the experience of android, but to remove the unused features that do nothing for.you. I mean who really needs a youtube widget when the shortcut gets you to youtube just as easily and doesn't drain your battery.

It's the same idea as startup programs on your computer. They serve no purpose other than to slow your system down. Sure quicktime or itunes might load a few seconds faster, but how often do you really load those programs.

[Atrix 4G General] CC Lemon:
Definitely a good list of things, but felt like commenting on the live wallpapers thing. From what I've experienced, it seems like it depends a lot on the wallpaper used. I initially thought the live wallpaper was one of the main reasons for the short battery life when I first got the phone so I switched to a normal wallpaper. I had that for about a week and generally saw a lot of improvements in battery life as a result of better management and the calibration cycles. After that week, I came across a live wallpaper I liked and decided to enjoy that feature for a bit more. If anything, it seemed like my battery life got a bit better. I've tested it a little, and there's no doubt that some of my live wallpapers drain battery more than others. I've tried switching between a standard wallpaper and my live wallpaper (galaxy live) and I really don't see much of a difference, if any, between the 2.

Question: Does freezing the blur home screen (via titanium backup) disable the widgets on it? I'm assuming it does, since it essentially makes that home screen non-existent as far as the phone is concerned.
[Atrix 4G General] wrayrb:
Darrell, There are some really good suggestions. They also apply to other android phones too probably. I had a myTouch4G for a week until I decided that T-Mob just wasn't as good a value to me as AT&T. So I went back. I'll get an Atrix soon, or maybe some Tegra that comes out in a month or 2.
[Atrix 4G General] Meursau|t:
How do you switch to Motoblur from Launcher Pro and back again? Will I lose the customization that I've done?

[Atrix 4G General] psymont:
I read somewhere in this forum that you shouldnt let the battery run all the way down in the initial calibration week. Anybody know about this?
[Atrix 4G General] Clienterror:
Modern lithium batteries actually die faster if you fully drain them then recharge to full. I'm not saying you can't do it every so often for calibration purposes but it isn't recommended as a every day thing.
[Atrix 4G General] DarrellRaines:
We aren't running them down for the batteries health, but more so that the phone will understand what full and what dead actually is.

Do not do this often as there is no point. As for damaging the battery, one website says it is bad while others say it is good. Do so at your own risk. I do not have a degree in science, so I can not say either way, however the steps above done once the phone is calibrated will help.
[Atrix 4G General] DarrellRaines:
After 12 hours of moderate to heavy use today, I still have 50% battery remaining.

For the guy who's email stopped working, do not turn off all background data. That will stop the push settings I believe.

just curious more then anything... as I am waiting for my unlock code... I am playing with it as much as I can... with everything on (but I put in airplane mode, so it would stop searching for a signal).

No surprise with the screen being a big battery hog... but the phone idle is way up there as well? 40% currently... but I did leave it on overnight, to see how much it drained.

thx
[Atrix 4G General] DarrellRaines:
Your phone idle will always be high as if you are not using your phone, it is idling. This is typically just the phone being on and doing the background stuff it needs to in order to operate.

Or at least I am fairly positive that is correct. If anyone has evidence to the contrary please speak up :D
[Atrix 4G General] PakaPakaxz:
Love you man :D

Great post, thank you!

Edit: whay about brightness settings ?

Is auto brightness good ?
[Atrix 4G General] elementaldragon:
Automatic brightness adjustment is probably on of the better options. Full brightness will drain the battery faster.... and low brightness might save that battery life, but also might make the screen hard to see in some scenario's. I've always left it on Auto.

As for the idea of fully draining the battery and then recharging.... i'd have to agree on the recommendation to at least do so once. I let it drain last night until it completely died.... plugged it in and left it charge without powering the phone up until after it was at 100% for a little while. I haven't used it THAT much today.... a couple texts, a phone call or two, some solitaire.... but even with the Fancy Widget up (Gotta love free stuff!), after about 8 and a half hours, i'm still at 75% battery. Granted i don't really use any other widgets... especially not pointless ones like Facebook or the already mentioned Youtube widget. Only ones i really use are SoundHound, Google Voice, Google Search, Circle Battery, and the toggles for wifi, GPS, bluetooth, etc...

[Atrix 4G General] DarrellRaines:
Welcome. Glad I could help some folks here
[Atrix 4G General] pookeyster:
In some of the other battery threads, ppl have been commenting on how they've had success in extending the battery life after a hard factory reset. What that basically does is it deletes and regenerates the batterystats.bin file in /data/system and if the battery was essentially mis-calibrated prior to the reset, the reset fixes it thus giving better measurements. ie. perhaps after 10hrs of usage the phone might say u have 5% left, but in reality you could have 40% left.. the regeneratin of batterystats.bin would recalculate that correctly

if you want the benefits of having that reset process but rather not go through having to restore all ur apps/back them up.. u could always manually go and delete the batterystats.bin file (only if you're rooted). i would recommend deleting the file after fully charging the phone overnight then unplug it so that it generates the file again. if you'd prefer an app to do this for you automatically you could always go to the marketplace and get 'battery calibration' app for free and it does the same thing
