i started this thread to show the full advantages and disadvantages of the desire v5 rom
1. when booting the (quietly brilliant ) is written very slowly hope to fix it
2. the dynamic wall papers fast but when turning bages it moves allittle slow
3. multitouch apps works very well and the hd2 tracks the fingers right (better than the desire ) the axis problems doesnot exists at all
4. the phone calls works prfectly without the echo
5. camera and video recording works well but with no flash
6.compass works well but just calibrate it before using any app
7. pinch to zoom works better than windows mobile
8. most apps from market works well
9. the green led always flashes why?
10 . using 3d benchmarks applications it shows the same graphics power as the desire , which means the 3d acceleration works well
11.the screen colors sems to be better but not sure
12. gps does seem to work but not sure
13. the weather app seems to be laggy and graphics in it doesnot seem to be good like at wm version
14 . the hardware contollers at the wired headset , doesnot seeems to work \
15.some options like quiet on pickup doesnot seem to work
16. light sensor doesnot work
17 . thats all for now , it seems that we are going to get a full android port soon , from what i see from this performance it works better and faster than my xeperia x10 which is android based device and i will keep you updates with issues that appears
Still too slow for daily usage imo. After using an hour I returned back to the Windows Mobile and I just said "wooaw".
Windows mobile was x10 faster than desire v5.
I'm looking forward for new updates about this issue.
wait, so the mic is fixed? You can actually have a normal conversation with the person on the other line? If not then i'll surely wait...

yes the mic morks perfrctly ,
@ xm ripper , the solution is released try the latest zimage released today , it makes very big improvements on speed and touch senstivity
Wouldn't it be more appropriate if this was in the HD2 Android Dev section?

x10 faster? lol, i don´t think so.
i´m using the v5 since 3 days without a pause. calls are perfect, no crashes, 95% of all things works perfect. and at the weekend i scroll thru the market for hours and can´t get enough
ok, the winmo is faster on the hd2 at the moment and we all know it, but to play with the android makes a lot more fun...
it's just on some of the android rom's that don't have sound for the moment.
for example, I used NRGs android rom, and sound didn't work on that, but otherwise everything worked ok
i managed to last a couple days using the android rom, but winmo is superior for the moment, although i'm sure in the near future when further bugs are ironed out and the battery life improves, then a lot of people will definitely be switching to android.
Hey guys just wanted to get everyone's feedback on the streak. After having it for a full week now it seems like the home screens are laggy now. Jumping from apps to apps can be slow too. Can I wxpect 2.1 or the updated 2.2 to be this laggy again?
Is the flashed 2.2 laggy at all? I dont want to flash a rom yet since rumor it might come by the 15th. I hope and pray.. I dont have too many apps but this lag is killing me softly. Had iphone 4 before and obviously that will always be a smooth UI then had my captivate with flashed rom on 2.2 and that was pretty responsive...
Anything else I can do on 1.6 to help?

I run an app called system panel.. And I run it when my 1.6 gets laggy. You can controle the working processes with it and stop the ones who take up to much memory or processing power.

My friend had the same strange issue and I believe it was caused by some app he downloaded. All we did to fix this was just reflash to 1.1.1 (now it would be also wise to flash to widely known Dj Steve's 1.2) It's easy and your Streak will work WAY faster.
personally, the 1.6 is a smidgeon laggy, but the 2.x versions are not.
i'd just be patient for 3-4 weeks and wait till the official 2.2 comes out.
Flashing to a XDA-ROM is tricky and troublesome and usually recommended to hardcore gizmo fiddlers.
I can't speak for everybody, but for all those I know owning a Dell Streak have the same problem as you do. We all hope the official Froyo will fix the problem, but it kind of late. I am about 6 months away from my upgrade date. This will be my last Dell. Hope some other will make phone with this size of screen.
When mine gets that way I power it off and back on. This is because I don't know where to find a "reset" app like I had with my Windoze mobile phone. Does one exist for Android 1.6?
I currently use an app called "Fast Reboot" off the market, and it literally just shuts most of the running processes down and boots everything up again. It takes a couple of seconds but it's a hell of a lot quicker than actually rebooting the phone, only for it to take 5-10 mins to start up again. I've not had any major problems using this app but it does have an affect on some widgets like the Battery Smart (android) widget which freezes and no longer shows you how much battery you've got left, but removing and adding it again works fine. Though every so often, I still like to do a proper reboot just in case.
Just wondering if its just my tab or just the tab in general, this thing is always freezing n just runs like its a frigin g1, slow! I have the sprint version, anyone else have the same probs?

sory to tell dude it's your tab, i gave up my ihone4 & ipad for my tab. it's one of the best devise i ever had, maybe omething is wrong with your tab take it back get an other one.
Got a Tab last night, and even after flashing to the latest ROM it is rather unreliable in terms of performance and lag. I've already experienced several complete lock ups which is more than my Desire has had in 6 months.
So I will be returning mine for a refund tomorrow. Think I'll wait for the v2 with 2.3 or Honeycomb.
Got mine loaded to the gills, and it zips along just fine, not a single lockup.
So there's no way to fix this? I can't take it back cause it wasn't brought new, I did a reset n started all over with it tho but I have these probs... I'm guess the stupid sprint activation thing has somethin to do with it but I can't get rid of it untill I root my device... there's gotta be a reason this thing is messed up?!

I sat in a sprint store playing with their tab for about an hour. I was blown away with the speed of it. If you are not finding the Tab peppy I would look into bringing it back.
I would also say that the sprint tab i was using was a much better experience than the ATT one I bought. I kept saying to myself something is not right here. Then I flashed it and all is good.
Mine was suffering from bad browser lag until I flashed it. I don't have a Sprint Tab though. Mine is T-Mobile. I'm running Roto-JMC. It's very smooth now!!!!
Hmm
i just watced a lagg fixed galaxy s phone on youtube run super super fast.
he said it was about 2700 quadrant score ( iknow its not a good method) i dont even get half of that and my tab is so much slower.
I am keeping it though i really cant see this not getting to the galaxy s smoothness level sometime within the next months, whats your thoughts? will it get as smooth, i mean why would it not? i cant even use flash in any of the browsers except youtube mobile, and i the old desire running hd flash!
it should be able to be soo much smoother with future firmware updates or hacks?
btw. Kindle app on this is like the best e reader ever! if u dont mind only 10 hour batterylife.
I have the Sprint version full stock, and I have no freezing or lagging.
Just a long shot here, but on my Evo I was having some lock-ups out of the blue, and when I finally connected it to my PC via USB, it told me that the SD card had errors. Ran scandisk, fixed the errors, and then everything was back to normal.
i have verizon version and its blazing FAST! however it did reboot a couple of times on me but i am sure its an app i have downloaded not the tab

My Tab runs fantastic. I also have a lag fixed SGS. A lag fix switches from Samsung's proprietary file system to an ext4 file system and therefore will not help general performance, it will namely help loading apps for the first time and saving. After that, you will not be able to see an improvement. This is also why lag fix methods increase the quadrant score.
If you are seeing ANY speed issues with the Tab, you should return it. If you bought it used, you should have got some kind of guarantee... they probably sold it because it was running slowly.
You guys really have to look at the software youre running on your tabs. Mine is running flawlessly and has been almost from day one.
Start by removing bloatware and unnecessary services. Flash to the latest supported firmware using Kies. Use firefox and Dolphin mini as your browsers. Turn on airplane mode + wifi to save battery. Look into a replacement launcher like adw ex or launcherpro. Get no lock to remove the lockscreen. Etc.
Android is all about user imput - if you dont customise it you will never feel its benefits over an ipad!
It's a good idea to try different task managers like the one in ASTRO i.e. and try to catch the faulty one. I found some issues in using the yahoo mail client.
Mean the faulty process that uses much processor time, in above post.
Hmm it is not like i havent done all of the above it is still not as smooth as a galaxy s phone. I really think there is some firmware difference since all danish tabs i have tryed run like this. Tryed 4 my own encluding. In Denmark people are selling tabs allover the place since many regular customers are disappointed. Got mine half price so i am still quiet content but it does lagg and with newest official firmware jj3 via kies. Flash in any browser except youtube mobile is not usable

My Tab is faster than my Galaxy S, has been from day one. My Galaxy S isn't slow, it's running a very fast Froyo rom. My Galaxy S phone is the fastest phone I've ever seen, but it's still not as fast as my Tab.
I haven't rooted my Tab or uninstalled any bloatware or disabled any services. If the Tab were laggy, I would have done all of those things. I haven't because I don't like to mess with what works.
My guess would be that your carrier has something installed that is slowing it down. I can't imagine what, I have tons installed and nothing has ever slowed it down.
That said, Don't use the stock browser, it can be laggy, especially on Flash heavy sites. Try the Miren browser and set Flash to "on demand".
Weird how some people have problems and some dont, I have the Epic also and it flys! But this damn tab is horrible and I too experience the browser lag, restarts, freezing, u name it! I saw that someone did mention they had alot of problems till they rooted and flashed it so if you could be so kindly to share info on what exactly you did it would be appreciated, especially cause others that have flashed didnt have the same outcome... If it dont work for me then its goin on ebay cus as of now this thing is just a paperweight...
T mobile flashed with a phone running fine .only some glithes from the wifi .only because my router is a bit far from me but otherwith running fine
i have instaled many app and many widget and its ok so far its only hungree for battery power
fine gadget and phone is defenetly a big plus

My Tab flies with no freezing... Rooted with z4 and use oclf. If i get lag in the Dolphin browser I try this trick I discovered on xda: Hold the power button to get the power off menu, then press the back button to exit that menu. Thats it. Browser will increase in speed and fluidity!

Answer to your first question:
Lag is only happening to your tab or your specific region (tab).
Solution:
Right here
Read through it quickly, bottom contains all the right info for you to flash your tab and get off of that HORRID stock firmware.
I have newly purchased an HTC HD2 and switched OS from Windows Mobile 6.5 to Android 2.3.4. I switched OS to experience Android and I really like it. I purchased this phone directly from HTC in UK. Now I have this problem that my phone is getting really hot while using it (whenever I browse my phone, talk over phone, play games or do anything, phone gets hot within 3 mins max). Android is running perfectly well on my phone except the lower back part of the phone is getting really hot (i believe the processor is there). I checked the task manager and found CPU usage minimal. Now what should I do? Can anyone help me on this issue?? I really need help!!
Please download battery booster from the market and activate it Please reply with the temperature!

Hi,
I have had a problem with my laptop for a couple of weeks but it used to be like this when i was on windows 7. I have a compaq presario CQ60 214-em it is a 1.70GHZ intel celeron dual core and 3gb ram and also running consumer preview windows 8 . My problem is from time to time my computer gets very slow and sometimes very fast (like now) sometime when i click on the metro apps for example the email app it hangs on the it boot screen and then goes back to the start same with other apps. i had a look in the task manager when my laptop gets slow and the processor is running at a speed of 0.20 ghz?? and the cpu usage is mostly in the 90's % but when it is running fast it is usually using the full 1.70Ghz .
I was also thinking about going to Windows 8 RTM and do a fresh install but I am looking on torrent sites and it looks like people are having trouble activating. I have included a screenshot for your attention
If anyone has any ideas please let me know. Thanks in advance.
Can anyone help please?

Suggest getting the Enterprise Trial version and try that. It's good for 90 days. You're running an old beta, so the first step is to get the latest code. After that, you're on your own.
BTW, it's dumb to talk of torrenting the RTM on a public forum. The only thing worse than cocktail pirates are ones who can't troubleshoot their own PCs.
