What's your smartphone? And what ROM are you using?


Recommended Posts

Physical or onscreen? The physical has never FCd on me and onscreen I use Swype but I dont remember anything like that on stock KB....

Both. I've had the physical FC when Im just opening the damn thing. Never seems to when Im using it though.

Galaxy S2 using Hydrog3n rom, and it's amazing!

Same here. If you haven't already, I'd recommend installing http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1555259 (Siyah Kernel) It has improved my battery life a hell of a lot and it's also a lot quicker than the kernel that comes with Hydrog3n. :D

Just put Endymion latest version (v3.5 I think) on my Desire S and the battery usage seems appauling. Going to have to get a battery stats thing to see where it's all going :/ 58% and it was on charge all night and I've sent about 20 texts, taken 1 picture and emailed it, and it's now half 4.

Although I was on the phone for just over half an hour this morning but after that it was still only on 87%.

I have a Verizon Samsung Galaxy Nexus. Right now I have AOKP Build 35 on it, but I will flip between that and Gummy (both are great). I'm also using Imoseyon's Lean Kernel (if you have a GNEX I highly recommend this kernel) Battery life is pretty good for a 4g device... I'm usually at around 20% with 15-16 hours of use (2-3 hours screen on time)

I like Gummy as well. But I like the themes that come with AOKP

Tried AOKP Milestone 6 but it has an issue with WiFi Tethering. also tried ICS333 2.1 very good ROM fluid and fast with no annoying issues.

Now on CyanogenMod 9 but it has minor issues with performance and apps randomly close mid use could be better, had thought that this ROM might have been issue free. might go back to ICS333 2.1 if I cant find another suitable ROM

Any ideas?

JB is as they say, amazingly fluid. I can notice the improvement over ICS nearly instantly. BLN notification works with BLN app. Battery life has returned from 8hr with CM9 to 15hr or so with this build/kernel. Underwater sound when in call seems to be gone as well :)

    • Google's new hand-wave reCAPTCHA can be bypassed with a stock photo by Ivan Jenic Image: Screenshot Google is testing a new reCAPTCHA method that asks you to wave at your camera to prove you're human. So, besides solving puzzles and reading distorted text, you can now use your computer’s camera to pass the verification test. When the hand gesture verification is triggered, your browser asks for camera access and prompts you to perform a simple gesture, like a wave or an open palm. Google says it records a short video of the movement and uses AI to extract 21 hand-knuckle coordinates to complete the verification process. The video is then immediately deleted, and Google swears it doesn't keep it. The process alone can be uncomfortable for people who wouldn’t want their biometric data, which hand scans technically qualify as, recorded. But it gets even more nuanced, as early testers discovered that the new hand-waving reCAPTCHA can be passed with a simple stock image. A user on X tested the new challenge using a stock image of a hand fed through OBS Virtual Camera, and it passed. I wanted to verify it, so I tried the same thing. It took me a few tries and a few stock images, but in the end, I was also able to pass the test. I simply had to readjust the stock image of a generic person waving inside OBS, and Google’s mechanism registered it as a legitimate hand gesture. Once again, it didn’t even have to be a video or an AI-generated hand animation. Given the simplicity of the process, the entire action can be automated in minutes. All it takes is a simple Python script to render the new reCAPTCHA method obsolete. And it doesn’t even have to be an AI bot, which is usually used for solving puzzles and other verification methods. The new reCAPTCHA method is still in its early phase, and Google will, hopefully, update its AI to at least reject still images. However, this incident, combined with users’ initial skepticism about Google’s practices regarding user data, likely won’t make too many people wave at the camera anytime soon.

    • Apparently not. I know it is on Edge for business at the moment, but how long will it be before it become on the home version of Edge?
