How's the restart issue with the phone? Seems XDA people are blowing up about this, but here there doesn't seem to be a lot of people affected by it.

Looking for some views on this.....it's the only thing stopping this from being a great phone. Even CM7 doesn't seem to help?

Ok, thats good to know. I guess it's better to go for ori set, then, just to be safe so can easily exchange if theres any problem.

Nightly #13 is out!


Added on May 10, 2011, 6:06 amBy the way.. you guys are really active in thread!
LMAO I saw people replying at 4/5/6 AM, ROFLLLL

Wow, are you flashing every single nightly? Is there a major difference between nightlys? I don't really bother with my Legend's CM, coz the devs don't really put in new improvements or commits every nightly release. I usually flash every 5-10 nightlys, and even then the improvements are not much.

Anyways, nice to see CM7 on this phone. Certainly it's making me lean towards this phone more......I think I saw MIUI in the works for O2X too.... nice to see the dev community active for this phone (unlike my HTC legend sad.gif )

ushh!! I can see stable is so near tongue.gif

LOL I gotta wake up and prepare for exam sweat.gif guess you too?

Don't hope for a stable so soon.....this nightly based on 2.3.4 was just released, and based on last time they released stable version 7.0.0, it'll probably take a few months for them to get to stable.

Best is find a stable nightly for you and stick with it......until the next best one comes along tongue.gif

I think can't..
Because most custom ROMs convert your sdcard to ext4 format.
While your stock ROM (when you got your phone) is in ext3.
It will be incompatible (I think..)

No, not exactly true. AFAIK there are no ROMs that automatically convert your SDCard. You normally have to format it to ext4 manually.

Even if that's the case, a nandroid backup should work no matter what filesystem your SDCard is. ext4 should only affect the performance of the card, and open up more options like sd-ext.

Anyhoos, I still have a week plus before I decide between this and SGS2. I'm leaning more towards this, since it can play all games (where SGS2 currently can't) and of course cheaper. How's the battery like? My current Legend battery sucks, with CM7 and push email on. Usually I can get about 8-10 hours per charge. sad.gif

Hi, this is my first time on this forum. I've been through the thread and thought this might be the place to get advice on my 2x. I just got it about a week ago and I've got some questions...

First of all, why do people root their phone?

Then how does it increase the performance? I mean like after rooting, do you get options to enhance the speed or something??? Or after rooting you get to do install something fancy to speed up the phone?

I'm a first time android user, so I've got 0 info on the whole root/flash concept. Any kind soul willing to help? I've never done anything to the phone before, it runs on v10b.

*Edit*

Is there any place in KL to buy the phone case? I"ve seen some on ebay (jelly silicone mercury case) but I don't make online purchases -.-'' Help pls~
*
The basic thing about root is that it allows access to system files. That in turn allows you to do things like:

Install custom ROM
Theme your phone
Backup your phone

Usually custom ROMs are the main reason, as most will include tweaks that increase performance.

Example there are custom kernels out now that frees up 64MB RAM and allows overclock to 1.5ghz. Fun stuff like that smile.gif
