Very nice! And many thanks. I will wait for more info before I get RSD happy though

*fingers crossed* that this is legit.

Wow. Downloading now! THANK YOU!

Wow this changes everything

Is this the at&t sbf?

My phone is already bricked, testing this file.

Now lets see all those people that were talking trash about the Atrix come back with their legs between their tails. Saying Inspire this and Inspire that... Sure...! Sure...!

Downloading this using my Atrix as a wifi hotspot at work = TORTURE. 15hrs left, according to Chrome. Hahaha.
I'm going to be refreshing the begeezus out of this thread today.

If anyone has this that can remirror. Its painfully slow.

<crossesfingers> I hope this is legit.

While I agree, I'm stuck at work, so I just VNC'd into my home comp and set up the file to download. Home comp says it will take 2 hours to download, so by the time I get home I can check it out and play around with it. **** just got real. Let the true hacking begin.

Oo someone beat dg on the upload?

I dont even have the Atrix yet and I'm excited

This could just be a leaked OTA update. The source site isn't specific as to what it is.

psx4droid

just bought it. i think it just came out today. went in the application and clicked on "download rom" downloaded silent hill. 8 parts and there in rar format and 40mb each :O but when i click on "PSX bios file" it wont let me load the rar. doesnt even show it. it says "you must specify a bios file(normally named scph1001.bin)" i have no clue what to do. any idea????? thanks
Find a bios file online and set that as the bios in the emulator and u should be good to go. Try freeroms.com or just google psx bios. Be careful tho lots of bad files out there.
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App
Yeah, just google scph1001.bin and when it asks for the BIOS, load it.
hey thanks guys for your help. i got it to work. tomatosoup was having the same problem. i loaded up the bios then hit menu and loaded up the iso and it didnt work, just quickly exited out. so i hit home and killed the app with a task killer and loaded the app back up and instead of clicking on the bios i clicked on the iso and it loaded right up. took a sec but it loaded.
Right on man let us know how it works for you. I hope its good cuz I may purchase it myself.

Evo's processor is a bit faster than ours (even with ours oc'd )
I don't know what graphics setup it has, but I'm guessing it is better as well.

Team Black Hat has released an app in Market with a new Tranquility and a Deodexed updated Froyo. You can download such as Rom Manager from within the app.
I downloaded but I am going to wait on a changelog before I flash it.

Are you sure you downloaded 2.3.5 RC? Or it installed correctly?
I just installed successfully. Still on 2.3.13.
Don't see any differences so far. I am curious about the changes too.
Edit: Just noticed Froyo 2.3.15 there. Downloading now!

Oooooh a new leak! Let us know if you notice anything new.
Ok, Froyo 2.3.15 and Tranquility 2.3.5rc installed smoothly, but when I tried applying Onix Gala X theme from ROM Manager, I got stuck at the M logo. Battery pull solved the issue. So I'll try applying the theme manually.
I haven't noticed anything new so far from the short time I spent browsing around the phone. I'm dying to see the change logs lol!
Edit: manually installing Gala X theme worked =)
Edit2: I'm not sure if it was true for 2.3.13, but in this one Flash shows up in the Market.
In the market for 2.3.13 too, noticed it today .

Okay... Not trying to sound like an ass but this has been eating away at me for a good twelve hours or so....
You are paying for an app. Cool idea in my opinion.
You are also paying for access to mods. Not unheard of.(supporting is good)
Lots of hype for access to something no one else has.
Using the hype to, in a way, make people donate for your work that is kind of iffy. I like what those guys are trying to do but I do not like how they are doing it. I just can't quite hit on the point I am trying to make but I feel something scetchy is going on here. Thus, I go back to... Paying for an app that creates access to what they are making. Cool idea in my opinion.
God I hope I don't get flamed to hard for this.... Trying hard not to be a Debbie Downer.
Those that are satisfied with the Tranquility roms will likely donate. Although I do believe the leak itself should be available to the general public.

I understood what he said just fine.
Dude I understand you have your opinion, but if you don't want to support, then you may just have to wait for someone else to find a leak source in one of the MOST locked down firmware arenas for android, TBH is doing an amazing job! THREE 2.2 updates before motosuck released its first!? They deserve the two bucks for the app. Mind you this is coming from a person who has only purchased one app for his droid x; the one we are talking about. Besides with all the C&D motosuck has been throwing around this is a resonable alternative to insure we get the content we want. OH! And not to mention tranquility is one of the best alternatives to motoblur out right now, $2 seems like a VERY small price to pay for no hassle dl's and quick update potential. Thank you again Team Black Hat for all the hard work! I see kernel's in the near future.... Wahoo!

So instead of charging for something that might possibly be construed as _his_ work, he's really just charging for Motorola's software that he paid someone to steal from them. Classy move.

[Q] Any ROM that utilizes the 512MB?!

Dear good sirs,
is there a kernel out there that will unleash the full 512MB of RAM? please?

I believe a dedicated amount is for the video graphics.

does the Nexus One use all 512MB through it's Kernel's?
I think the biggest I've seen is in cognition with has 304 available for user/apps. As others above have said a portion will always be dedicated to video.
It's quite common on laptops. They'll advertise like 2gb but windows will show a lower value. The difference is allocated to video.

[GUIDE] How to Get Free Wifi Tether on Droid Bionic!

So, here's a way you can get FREE wifi tethering/mobile hotspot on your Droid Bionic so you don't have to pay Verizon twice for the same internet you are already paying for. I don't know why Verizon would block this feature especially when you consider that there's a 2GB cap on your mobile internet usage anyways.
<MOD EDIT>
We don't have a 2GB cap. I've been over 2GB's a month for almost a year without any issues.
we don't?

I am grandfathered in, Verizon throttles you once you reach 5gigs while on 3G, but they haven't been able to throttle 4G still, enjoy it while it lasts, I am at >3 gigs so far this month, and that is with no tethering!

[RUMOR] I hate rumors but here it goes...

I hate hearing rumors, I really do. But I'm going to start one because mine has some merit to it. I have a friend of mine that works for Verizon. I told him I wouldn't state his name or what "department" he works in when I made this post. I was talking to him on the phone just about 45 minutes ago about the Revolution and how we're dying to get Gingerbread and how some people are actually getting rid of the Revo for fear that it will never get GB. Here's the conversation that took place.
Me: I just really wish we'd get it already. It would help out with development so much.
Him: Dude, whatever you do, don't get rid of your Revo.
Me: Haha, I'm not but why?
Him: You guys should be getting the soak test soon and as long as it goes good all Revos will have it by mid or late October.
Me: Don't bull**** me, how do you know?
Him: Trust me, it just came through an email 2 days ago. I meant to call you but I couldn't remember if you had actually bought the Revo or just waited for something different.
Me: Damn man that's awesome! You better not be bullshitting me.
Him: I'll put it this way, I put my paycheck on it.
Me: That's awesome man, hey can I tell people about our convo?
Him: I don't care, just don't use my name or where I work.
Me: Kinda HAVE to tell people where you work or I'll look like a retard hahaha.
Him: Oh ok but don't tell them what department I work in or anything. I already almost got fired a while back for putting out some info about the Bionic hahaha.
Me: Alright cool, hey thanks man. You have no idea how happy a lot of people are going to be when we get GB.
The rest of the convo was filled with nonsense talk about times past (and girls haha). Just thought I should share this info with you guys!
Loving this. I want GB!!!
I'm speechless
Thanks for the news.

a Soak Test is when the send out the update to a select few people and make sure that the update works in the real world with out breaking anything.

Soak testing is testing a system with a significant load over an extended period of time to discover how things act over a long period.
What he is saying is there are Revo's out there with 2.3.4 already installed on them. Verizon employees will carry and use a Revo on a daily basis with 2.3 loaded to see how it performs, what glitches arise etc...
If you play video games its kind of like an beta test only its not generally open to the public. During this time they also test the push out of the update to the phone to make sure everything will go smooth when they start pushing it to thousands at once.

Just want to update you guys a little more from my newest conversation.
Unfortunately he is in no position to get us a leak.
He works for tech support and received an email stating to be ready for possible high call volumes in about 2-3 weeks as the Gingerbread soak test begins for the LG Revolution. That was about all the email said.
Again though, this is in no way going to help us get a leak. Sorry guys.

Hmmm?
Might be worth having a stock phone if it got the OTA update with gingerbread in it.
Think i'm going to check out Revolt 1.4 tonight and go back to stock in the morning.
Please, any thoughts on this?

I wouldn't worry about going to back to stock just yet. According to the email, the soak isn't even going to start unil about 2-3 weeks from Monday the 12th.
Not sure how lg does it but you can sign up for these soak test with motorola they will even send them out to a few people who have gotten root access and have gotten back to stock as close as possible without having root access. check the droid 3 forums they just either did one or just sent out the invite to join the soak test.

Although I agree with most of what you said is better here, I sure wouldn't say that dual core is future proof. They had already began discussing quad core before the first dual core even came out.

Not a rumor - we have always known GB was coming. This is partly why Cubed had delayed his CM7 development.

Throwing more cores at a device does not necessarily increase performance, either, unless the application base and operating system takes full advantage of them for multi-threading.
Case in point: Most hard-core games on a PC that came out over the past 5 years will run the same, if not better on a single or dual core machine as they did on a quad core. What really makes the difference is architecture, clockspeed, application architecture, and most importantly (assuming the apps use it) GPU implementation!
Assuming all apps were hardware accelerated on an Android, you would care more about the GPU then you would the CPU. Being that a lot of apps are not hardware accelerated, or take advantage of aggressive multi-threading, you may actually see a performance drop on the Bionic depending on the implementation of the devices core implementation (much like the scores from the Atrix showed).
The hype of more cores = smoother experience is bunk. It's just a spec and numbers war. More cores = possibility of more apps running seamlessly at once, but only if the architecture is there to support it.
