[Q] Htc Pure - General Questions and Answers

hey guys i have an htc pure and quite frankly, its slow, really really slow.
i was wondering are there any cool things i can do with it to make it faster?
ive heard of overclocking and things, but can anyone give me links to files and tell me how to install them?
i really liked this phone at the beginning and now i rather use my razr...
i just need some tips on how to make it faster!
and i know i can delete things and close programs but i need more technical help!

Might want to post this in the Pure subforum instead.

Hey there,
Kool no probs, the vogue is a reasonably old device and as such doesnt have a huge amount of memory.
Running the apps you mention will use a lot of memory esp if you have some other apps open.
If i were you, i would wonder over to the vogue section, do some reading to understand how to flash a cooked rom on ur fone.
Using a cooked lite rom will release some memory and will depending on the rom will give u a much newer interface to use, rather than the old touchflo.
Just make sure you do a bit of reading first so u dont end up bricking ur device
Greetz and have fun.
i have researched a lot about putting roms in phones but im still not confident enough and worried about bricking it, i wish there was a video on this website b/c ive seen only one on the internet and it wasnt too specific.
One last question what else can i do if i decide not to take the risk with the rom is there other software? i know that htc home coustimzer is one option.
sorry but forgot i got one more question, if i put a micro sd memory card would that also solve the proglem?

Yes u can use that to change the appearance of htc home, you can do quite a lot with that, like colours etc.
If you delve into ur device a little, you can find the pic files for the clock and change them so they look like the touchflo3d clock (just wont flip)
Dont worry, spend your time reading, it is acutally quite simple to hardspl and flash, just the first time is kinda scary lol.
okay man thanks a lot.

[Q] Please advise a droid x noob!

Please advise a droid x noob!
Ok, so I'm coming off a rooted and GB rommed thunderbolt. So I know little about rooting and flashing roms. I would like to make my DX to be gingerbread and have a lot of eye candy, more speed, and better battery. I am currently rooted with stock System version 2.3.340.MB810.Verizon.en.UC, android 2.2.1. I keep getting asked to OTA from Verizon and I keep declining. I'm assuming I should not do the OTA. What would suggest I do? What Rom would accomplish my needs the best and give me a better DX experience?. I researched and found that Liberty and Apex are the tops. Also some of the roms say that I cant have system version .340, what do I do about that? If someone could give me a small step by step, it would help a lot. Sorry for asking but the DX seems a little more complex than flash a thunderbolt. Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thank you!.
Seriously? Call me a noob too, but listen to this. Don't go for a rom that is the "best". The best is going to come with a lot of things that people don't know what to look for.
I'm using Shell Rom for the Optimus S and it's the best I've ever used. Some kinks in it but other than that, the performance is crazy.
That's the number one thing. Performance.
Go launcher (or adw) for making it look pretty (go sms, go dialer...)
Widgetsoid and Widgetlocker to customize the lockscreen to an unbelievable extent.
Custom keyboard (Swiftkey X) with neon theme.
I'm looking good, excellect functionality, beautiful, and best of all? It's fast. It doesn't bog down. It does what I want and it looks good doing it.
Go with a shell rom that has a minimum of what you need. Look for small things, like a power control widget. I missed out on that one with my Shell Rom (ported from CM7 and that's my only gripe). Then wifi stability, 3g 4g stability, no "Bugs: some people report missing their camera flash". Keep it stable where you need it to be.
The pimp it out! If your launcher has a theme you want for pay, then pay it cheapskate. Don't go to some sharing site and download the apk. That's wrong and hurts developers... Unless you're broke and are going to spread word of mouth to people with money to buy it... I'm sure they wouldn't mind that so much then...
Droid X is no harder to customize than the Thunderbolt (I've used both), though you will have to learn some new terminology (easy stuff though if you're used to rooting Android).
Read the forums. The Droid X has been out so long that a lot of users are sick of answering the same "How do I root/rom/theme?" questions over and over for every new user on their forum. There is a ton of good information/guides out there to get you started.
Some of the forums you should check out are:
1. XDA (Droid X section)
2. RootzWiki
3. DroidXForums
4. MyDroidWorld
And here's something to get you started on your journey: http://www.droidxforums.com/forum/g...g/33387-how-ready-flash-gb-2nd-init-roms.html

Stock Sensation, what can be done to improve?

Hi guys, i'm actually asking this for my gf's brother, i own an x10 so i don't know much about Sensation.
Since it's a costly phone he doesn't wanna mess with rooting it and does not have the knowledge also, but i was wondering...
What other improvements are (if any) available for the stock 2.3.3 ROM without the need to root?
Maybe just to help optimize it a bit, but it is pretty fast as it is right now...
Thanks

Evo 3D rooting questions

I have a HTC Evo 3D, and I absolutely love the phone. I am impressed with how much better this phone runs compared to my HTC Evo 4g. My Evo3D is stock, and here lately I have been looking into rooting it, allowing me superuser access.
The downfall, I get slightly confused to the whole thing. I am sure that I can perform the rooting task itself, but what has been keeping me from doing so, is I don't know what I am doing after I root the phone. I see stuff about flashing roms and kernels and all, but I do not understand how you do that? How do you add custom stuff? What is flashing? How do you add all the custom things? Can you add stuff to roms?
I know all of these questions come off noobish, but I am just looking for an expansion of it from other people. Anyone that has an idea of how it all works, any information provided is greatly appreciated.
