Re: Sprint ROM no TOUCHflo 3d!?

I don't have a link...... Think of it like this, when a program queries the windows directory it has to wait for all the files to be displayed in there. Now it has to overlook a LARGE number of files. Its kind of like a super disorganized registry. And I have tried this rom and yes opening windows components such as the Program files folder and settings and what not is quite a bit faster than a rom with touch flo in it. The fact of the matter is ask a rom maker such as No2Chem, they try to clean up "Junk" in the windows folder because it slows down the PPC.

What ROM are you using? I have tF3D installed on my TP but it is disabled. When I select Programs from the start menu it comes up almost instantaneously. When I select Settings from the start menu it comes up fast too. I'm not sure how much faster it can get.

I'm open to change my opinion but I am still skeptical.... I'd like to see some numbers/data to be convinced that totally removing TP3D from the ROM is noticeable faster than simply disabling it.

No2Chem's ROMs were famous for their speed on devices with little memory like the Mogul. There it made a huge difference. I believe the TP is quite different in that it has plenty of internal memory. And I don't think No2Chem has a TP ROM.

Re: Sprint ROM no TOUCHflo 3d!?

Its not the Memory aspect....... Its the fact that the windows directory is bloated. Try opening the windows directory on your phone. Then install this rom and open it. It opens it 3x faster. Manilla is a pig. For instance Load up your pc HDD with lots and lots of files filler ones or what not. Then slap them on your desktop or something. Make like 400 files. You will notice a difference. No matter how Leeb your pc is, (I do game Just so you know) so i do have a good computer.

Yes opening your Windows directory will be slower with more files but that is one specific action by one program, namely File explorer. How often do people normally open their Windows folder with File Explorer in an average day?

All I'm saying is that in everyday normal activities, I don't think it's going to make that much of a difference in speed. Again, I'm open to change my opinion but I'd like to see hard numbers to show it.

But bottom line is that it doesn't seem like anyone is going to convince you otherwise, so you might as well go ahead and flash a ROM without TP3D and this thread can be closed.

Set up explorer to show hidden and system files, and the folder will open almost instantly. The reason it opens slow, is it is processing the files to be shown vs. hidden.
