QUOTE(proff89 @ Jan 17 2012, 05:02 PM) I just rooted my xperia pro and I install this rom manager. Thing is, I want to try some custom rom but it said I need to install clockworkmode recovery but I couldn't the find any xperia model there.? I new to this android thingy, I only knew how to jailbreak my ipod before. AFAIK Xperia model not yet supported by ROM Manager... What model you are using? Maybe you can visit XDA Dev to find more info about your Xperia Added on January 17, 2012, 9:16 pmQUOTE(danielcmugen @ Jan 17 2012, 04:36 PM) The higher the class of the sd card, the faster it is right? But what is it faster in? Is it only affect the stuff in the sd or overall UI/homescreens and all?  It affected application you install in your SD Card... Unless you install all your application inside your internal memory... This post has been edited by Deani_77: Jan 17 2012, 09:16 PM

QUOTE(danielcmugen @ Jan 18 2012, 05:30 PM) So u mean if that particular game is laggy on class 2 sd, upgrading it to class 4 sd would lessen the lag? Is this how the "class" thing works? Higher class mean higher data transfer rate. You can check it using bench marking software such as Antutu Benchmark.

QUOTE(antoniov @ Mar 3 2012, 09:35 PM) Erm what do you mean? If i click on the "youtube" logo on android....then no need? if use browser like opera mini then need? If you are using Youtube apps then no need for flash... but if you watch it through browser then it will need for flash player... It was based on my previous experience while using X8 which don't have flash player support but I can still play youtube apps...

QUOTE(mtxx @ Aug 21 2012, 09:53 AM) just realized cyanogen mod is not really pure android. it basically takes the aosp, and add stuff like customizable lock screen, profiles, themes, systems settings, etc. isnt this consider like a custom skin like touch wiz, sense Ui etc? why the above 2 receive so much hate while cyanogen receive so much love. due to these extra cm add ons, their builds seems to never reach stable version. if remove their customizations, just give really pure aosp, isnt that better and faster? stable build more important than small customization imo... Touchwiz was made by Samsung and Sense UI was made for HTC... Cyanogenmod for all device...
