[Atrix 4G General] juzz86:
Individual blocking is a good idea. If someone comes along, makes one post off-topic or trolls, they get a warning. Second time, kicked out of thread for good.

I think the 'group blocking' would be hard to enforce also, but a good idea. If you block an entire group, you run the risk of alienating a lot of decent people who may be more help than hindrance. Use the Atrix bootloader as an example, a crypto expert may join the forum specifically to help out, and would find themselves blocked from the thread immediately. That said, quite a few 'senior members' like to rise to the bait also, so you may not necessarily be blocking the right people :)

I do believe the RD status will go some way to alleviating this. It would be nice to see a wider adoption of 'mod your own thread' taken, but this would result in many more nightmares :) guaranteed.

On-topic now (sorry), that 'Webinar' was pretty disheartening. As someone else said, just an hour long pitch basically. I do agree that they were the wrong people to ask though. It would be nice if SE's recent announcement on unlocking their latest-gen bootloader prompted some action on Motorola's part. Dreams are free I guess :)
[G Tablet General] sheranosuke:
I was wondering if my carriers usb laptop data card would work on the Viewsonic G-tab for those times I am not around wifi? I would like to know before I purchase one.
[G Tablet General] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
Do some digging in the DEV section. I think there is at least one thread where someone was working on that.

I also know that some of the custom kernels (Pershoot, Clemsyn) support 3G, but not sure if that includes USB or just the internal 3g Module of some of the Variants of this tablet (Z-tab, etc)
[Thunderbolt General] g00s3y:
So with the stock battery, 4g on, background data syncing on (twitter every 15 mins, fb every hour, push gmail, weather every hour) 20 mins of GPS usage, some youtube, some Words With Friends, some Angry Birds, lots of texting and tweeting, and about 45 minutes of actual talking on the phone, installing about 20 apps, and setting up about 10 of them... and its still going, no there isn't much left at all, 5%, but the battery life isn't as horrible as everyone is making it out to be. Every type of data transfer or sync or stream was done over 4g, I never turned the 4G radio off at all, never disabled background sync, any of that. I did have the "power saver" mode come on at 15%, but by that time I was already over 22 hours on the battery.

This was with Adryn kernel and BAMF 1.1 rom. SetCPU profile only for screen off, 245/245. If I can get a solid 24 hours out of a very lightly *tweaked* stock rom and kernel, I can only imagine how good it could get a few months from now.

BTW I have a pretty constant -62 db rating for LTE, which is amazing if you ask me. :cool:
[Thunderbolt General] Cg006:
Pretty awesome. I also set a setcpu for 245mhz min/max when the screen is off. But i keep messing with the phone to haveit last that long lol.

I also have mines exclusively in 4G mode. LTE is a beautiful thing. OHHH

Also...

I installed spare parts and set the animations and transitions to "fast". ive been showing my friends. This phone is "flying". everything keeps up with it too.
[Thunderbolt General] drod2169:
Glad you can. Sadly, every device is different :/ I get about 10 hours out of mine. Although, that's just an estimate. I haven't let it drop low enough to test (usually plug in ~ 50%-60%)
[Thunderbolt General] Strife21:
I had my screen set with setcpu to 245/245 but I was getting lag when trying to unlock the phone from a blank screen
[Thunderbolt General] TDevilsG:
Hmm, interesting enough. I can get roughly 13-15 hours out of it on a daily basis. No charge, moderate amount of surfing.
[Thunderbolt General] g00s3y:
I get a tiny bit, but its nothing that really bothers me.
[Thunderbolt General] sygnous:
Setting the CPU down that low doesn't lag out all your sync'ing? I sync a ton of RSS feeds as well (like 500+ posts a day). I have facebook, gmail, and twitter sync'ing all day too.

Only android experience I have is a Hero, and it was only like 350MHz full speed, so, lol, I remember what it was like using that. Just wondering how it affects syncs.

laters
[Thunderbolt General] butters72:
I just configured SetCPU with the screen off 245/245 profile today, been running about 5.5 hours now, been playing music for about 3, battery is down to 65%, so definitely seeing an improvement
[Thunderbolt General] funkybside:
Battery depletion, or more to the point, the battery gauge, isn't linear. I bet you get noticeably more from the bottom50% than the top.
[Thunderbolt General] shaddix2:
4g is more efficient per byte than 3g is. As in, transfering 100mb over 4g is going to use less battery than transferring 100mb over 3g. Even though second for second 4g uses more battery than 3g. As in running 4g for 5 seconds uses more battery than 3g, but you get way more done in those 5 seconds on 4g than you do on 3g.

I wouldn't turn off 4g unless I'm in a fringe area.
[Thunderbolt General] Aerogriff:
That's a nice battery life. I'm gonna try tweaking mine to see if I can get anything like that.
[Thunderbolt General] stoneskin2:
very nice tip.

Thanks
[Xperia Arc General] Darth Glacious:
There are several shops that are selling it already, either through Amazon websites, their own websites, or via eBay.

Where do these shops get their Arcs?

For instance this one from eBay

With 99.5% positive feedback I doubt there is some scheming going on or that they are lying about really having some pcs.
[Xperia Arc General] Ambroos:
Sony Ericsson will be distributing the midnight blue one from tomorrow (tuesday). Just because you can already buy them doesn't have to mean they have them in stock!
[Xperia Arc General] Darth Glacious:
I noticed that they state for all their phones that they have 3pcs in stock, which was pretty weird come to think about it. I would still prefer to buy from Amazon, it feels safer.
[Xperia Arc General] Ambroos:
eBay is completely safe if you pay with Paypal! But Amazon is probably safer.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Borg1982:
I am using a stock Evo and downloaded Steven Lin's "Keyboard from Android 2.3".

I don't notice that there are any dictionaries in it. He mentions in his description to go download them, but I find none on the market.

The reason why I want an english dic is because I want quickfix to work, and other various abilities.

Anyone have trouble too?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] arianii:
will there be any problem when ill try to flash darkys rom for example on my sgs i9000 on wich im using oclf?
[Nook Color General] ieAnd:
I've searched and searched and experimented and experimented, yet I cannot find a solid solution to this problem.

My end goal is to use either j4mm3r's boot menu or rookie1's (multi)u-boot.bin to dual-boot samulhalff's Honeycomb v4 2nd Ed. primarily, then alternatively boot either phiredrop's wonderful Phiremod v5.1 or good ol' CyanogenMod7 with samuelhalff's Honeycomb features. Optimally both boots would use the Quadrant-fixed Dalingrin's OC kernel. FINALLY, it would be super awesome if I could TRIPLE boot the original B&N Eclair off the SD to actually read books (with the OC kernel).

Sorry about all the hyperlinks, but... I'm a Comp Sci / English double major, I cite my sources by instinct now :P

I've a good deal of experience mucking about with my OG Droid, my Droid X and now the Nook Color-- currently my set up is (multi)u-boot with Phiremod v5.1 primarily and the outdated pre-made dual-boot Honeycomb rooted by myself-- but as I stated, I would like v4 2nd Ed. booting primarily.

I understand that's a long list of very specific versions of Android booting in a very specific order all with very specific kernels and mods... but if there's anything I've learned through Android development, it's that anything's possible when you put a big enough brain-trust together. Plus, all the tools are there... just for the dickens of it all I can't figure out the proper order to flash, etc. to get it all working how I like.

Help me XDA developer forums, you're my only hope.
[Thunderbolt General] jamestx10:
I am on the stock ROM rooted. I have a gmail, google apps, facebook app - Not HTC Sense (contacts only) and weather(3 hours) accounts setup. Something seems to hang while syncing and the sync icon stays on for a long time. This will cause emails to be delayed in showing notification.

I cannot figure out what it is that is causing the issue. I am also assuming this is not good for battery life. When it is hung like that I can look at each account on the accounts & sync tab and none of them show active syncing. If I cancel the sync and then sync now they will all sync and complete as expected.

Any one else seeing this? Any ideas on figuring out what account is causing it?
[Thunderbolt General] Wkd1:
Mine does this too. I'm rooted, running Perfect Storm v1.0. I also did the 'Kernal/OS tweaks'. I'm not sure what caused it, but it's been doing this on and off for a couple days. I also had that ooVoo video app installed and when I uninstalled it, the sync indicator went away. (I had previously set the ooVoo sync to off). I'll post if I find anything.
[Thunderbolt General] jamestx10:
I selected each account and disabled sync for each one and it still showed the sync icon later on. Do we know what all triggers the sync icon?
[Thunderbolt General] jamestx10:
Any one else having this issue?
[Thunderbolt General] Trevlo:
I was having the same issue. No idea what was causing it, I thought it was Facebook, but I froze it and it still was popping up. I did install advanced radio tools in settings from Jcase and leankernal from Imoseyon...
[Thunderbolt General] n2imagination:
Yeah I am unrooted still and have this same issue with gmail delay. I can send an email to my self and watch it pop up almost immediately on my old eris connected to wifi but actually have to launch gmail to get the email on the thunderbolt. WTF!? Thats basic stuff. I cannot for the life of me figure out how it works fine on the granddaddy eris but not on the grandson TB. I have one personal gmail account and one gapps account. The only difference in the phones (other than the obvious massive power difference) is 4g so I wonder if this 1st gen 4g device wasn't polished enough back at the HTC labs?
[Thunderbolt General] jamestx10:
I have 1 of each account type as well. What about other of you having this issue?
[Thunderbolt General] Trevlo:
I've been experiencing this all day. Won't sync my g-mail accounts. I froze HTC Sense, could that be the cause?

EDIT: Unfroze sense and it still won't sync my g-mail. Syncs my contacts fine, just not my calendar or my e-mails. I deleted data and it did nothing except remove all of the e-mails that I had on my phone. Still wouldn't sync so I booted up my backup, and it STILL is not syncing. Please tell me I'm not the only one experiencing this problem.
[Desire HD General] vVSolidusVv:
Hi friends.... all fine? :)

i have a problem with my Desire hd .... a display problem... i have the AUO display

When I turn the screen (I remove him from stanndby) appears for a moment a vertical strip. Then he goes immediately away

this occurs only when the brightness of the display isn't set at minimum.. if the brightness is set to maximum or minimum it happens ...if the brightness set at minimum it will NOT happen

here is the video .. so you can look what is the problem

look the video

i have the original rom froyo 2.2 ... software 1.32 ... and i have make a format ... now i don't know what to do...

help me please... and sorry for my bad english :)
[Desire HD General] llama-power:
sorry, I can't help you with your problem, but in my opinion that looks like a hardware defect. I'd bring it in for a repair simply to prevent this issue from turning into something worse.

On another topic: to improve visibility of stuff like that, you should set your camera to manual exposure. Also, y did you film your phone, play that video on your computer and then film your computer screen?

btw: here's a frozen frame showing that line:

View attachment 554556
[Desire HD General] vVSolidusVv:
Hello, meanwhile, thanks for the answer

i made the video with my professional camera... and the weight of the file was 143mb ... so... after the video...i have play it with my pc and i have made another video with my desire hd... so the weight is only 6mb

eheh...

you mean that's a hardware problem? but why it does not happen with minimum light of display?
[Desire HD General] llama-power:
Hey, no problem at all:) But I still thinkt that there should be a better way to compress a video;)

anyways:

are you sure it doesn't happen or could it be that it happens, you just can't see it (as the line would be darker or maybe some other effect that delays the backlight-on until the line already disappeared, or ...)?

Another way to eliminiate a software problem: just turn your phone off and back on, does the vertical line appear or not? (at that time there should'nt be a lot of software loaded that could mess with this)
[Desire HD General] vVSolidusVv:
when the display light is on minimum it does not happen... i'm sure... nothing... zero...

but when i turn on the phone it happen... grrrrrrr... so it's not a software problem... it happens not when you turn on the display .... but when the cell raises the brightness...

what a pity :(
[Desire HD General] llama-power:
what do you mean by that? Does the line appear when you set the screen brightness to minimum and turn it up afterwards? (so basically slide the brightness-selector from min to max and back)
[Desire HD General] vVSolidusVv:
no no ... I think the problem is related to the fact that it is caused when the cell has to raise the brightness as I have set this

if I put the brightness to a minimum the display does not give that problem powering up

so i think that the brightness case the problem and not the switching on
[Desire HD General] vVSolidusVv:
any supportfor me please?

i think i have to go in htc/support

beacuse i have make flash... change radio... change kernel... change rom ... and the problem persist
[Desire HD General] Flussen:
Simply run the 1.32 RUU, then root it and do radio S-ON (IF you have it now, otherwise there's no need to do that), then unroot it.

Now your phone is completely stock and ready to be sent to HTC ;)

[Galaxy Tab General] IP IHI II IL:
Good afternoon!

I was wondering if someone could give me a hand, or tell me if I did something wrong?

I rooted my Sprint SGT using SuperOneClick Sat. night, and noticed yesterday that a lot of my installed apps now do not show in Rosie. I know they're still installed, because they show and can be opened in appbrain, and the market. I didn't flash a ROM, and didn't install CWM, just left it stock after rooting.

I thought maybe I could just gain root access, and leave things "as is" for the same functionality I'm used to.

I'm not a TOTAL n00b to rooting/flashing in general (TONS of experience on my EVO) but pretty n00b with my SGT.

Any help provided would be greatly appreciated!!

THANKS IN ADVANCE!!
[Epic 4G General] takethat365:
Hello,

My Epic is stuck roaming even after powering off and powering on and removing the battery, this is not a problem where im not getting signal because its the same everywhere i go, Wifi works fine and its the only way i can use my phone i just can't connect to the sprint network. Anyone have any suggestions on whats wrong with my phone?
[Epic 4G General] heathmcabee:
Settings > Wireless and Network > Mobile Networks > System Select

Try changing it to Sprint only and see if it works
[Epic 4G General] takethat365:
Nope, then i dont get any signal @ all... Do u think a hard reset is in order?

Also how do u get rid of that sprint i.d. home screen... i Just want the stock android launcher
[Epic 4G General] heathmcabee:
Are you on EC05? Give us a little more info on what and when this starting happening. Did you update from DI18 to EC05 and this started?
[Epic 4G General] takethat365:
Im on EC05 but this started before i updated to EC05 by wifi... This started about a week ago when my sprint service was shut off on this phone (main line on family plan) cuz i forgot 2 pay the bill.. I've sense paid the bill but i cant connect to the sprint network, only roaming and wifi.

I Called sprint and spoke with tech support and spend a hour on the phone with a guy who had me do ALL the same things i already did before i called (try n update profile,prl,airplane mode,etc.) Even thou i told the guy i did all this he said " lets just try it 1 more time " Got frustrated and ended the call after he was having me do the same things over and over.
[Epic 4G General] heathmcabee:
Since that is the case, i would take it to a Sprint repair store and have them look at it. You could always try ODIN back to DI18 and update to EC05 again and then updating your profile, but you shouldn't be always roaming if you are in a green area with sprint service.

You should also try this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1012384

Reflashing the modem, may help.
[Epic 4G General] lancelane:
no

no problems here.
[Epic 4G General] takethat365:
What? Are u just trying to get ur post count up or ?
[Epic 4G General] dchawk81:
Just ignore unhelpful people like that.

As inconvenient as it might be, if I were you I'd try driving to where you know for sure you'd be on a different tower. I did that a couple times when I had signal issues and it cleared them up...even when I went back home to my local tower. I didn't do anything to the phone itself.

It was weird, but it worked.
[Epic 4G General] takethat365:
Yeah i got u on that other guy, I was actually in Mexico 3 days ago from Arizona so i was actually in a different country and it was still roaming. And i actually get better sprint signal in Mexico then i do in my own house in Tucson,Az.

Im about 2 do a hard reset ill post back if it fixes the issue
[Epic 4G General] dchawk81:
Interesting. Hope you get it sorted.
[Epic 4G General] DeafDef:
sprint store

I am also having the same problem. I spoke to several techs that wanted me to do a restore of my phone, but i refuse because I have 2 epic's and they're both having the same roaming problem. I will be taking both of mine to the sprint repair store today or tomorrow. I will let you know if they find anything.​
[Epic 4G General] Whosdaman:
Root your phone and buy roam control from the market. That should change you back to sprint
[Epic 4G General] digiblur:
What PRL does your phone info say?

I would try reloading the prl either by the update that fails all the time or with qpst.
[Epic 4G General] arvinghost:
Try to backup your stuff first then do ##786# to reset your phone

if that didn't work then try to use odin and install the firmare again but this time try to make sure you select ( Phone EFS Clear) which will restore your phone completely to stock then when it runs it should update profile by it self and will program your phone.
[Epic 4G General] LunaticWolf:
Have you used roam control?
[Epic 4G General] arvinghost:
you can also try to use this app for roam control

hope this help
[Nook Color General] IFLATLINEI:
So now that I finally have my Nook rooted and running Custom Nookie Froyo im playing with it constantly. I noticed while looking at it next to my HTC Droid Eris that the Eris screen looks crisper and more colorfull. Obviously the Nook is much bigger but I began to wonder if it looked better with the original software than it does now. Has anyone else noticed this or is it just me? Could it be something that will improve as development of the software continues? Is there an app that will allow me to fine tune the colors?
[Nook Color General] lafester:
I think the colors look great although it would be nice to be able to adjust them if you want. as far as i know there is no way to adjust at this time.
[Nook Color General] IFLATLINEI:
Im not complaining by any means but clearly next to my phone I can see a difference. Im thinking its simply because Froyo is scaled larger than Google intended which may cause the loss in crispness and color. I was just wondering if anyone else noticed and maybe had a theory as to why. Looks like Ill just stick to my theory and continue to enjoy this fantastic software on this fantastic device.
[Nook Color General] Ridel:
Have you adjusted LCD Density?

That's the first thing that came to mind when you said "loss in crispness".
[Nook Color General] mg00000:
Adjust screen?

This is what was brought up before while posters were talking wallpaper. How is this done? i'm going to check the menus now for density.....
[Nook Color General] JLCollier2005:
I think it's just because froyo was never meant to stretch like this. I use CM7 which defaults to the ADW launcher and it looks crisp to me, but that launcher is also compatible with larger screens.
[Nook Color General] IFLATLINEI:
Well I seemed to have taken care of it. I was being thrown off by the lousy way it handles wallpaper. Using ES Explorer to set my wallpaper made a huge difference.

Even still how does one find the LCD density settings?
[Nook Color General] pyro6128:
download an lcd density app from the market
[Nook Color General] Str0ntium:
Or use Root Explorer and check out the how-to that's stickied. The build.prop file is in the same location as 2.1
[Nook Color General] fattire:
Or if you want to do it the manual way, and you have adb installed..

(on your computer)

adb pull /system/build.prop

then use a text editor to edit build.prop. Change the line with "density" (just do a search for it) from 160 or 169 or whatever to whatever value you want.

then, again on your computer

adb remount
adb push build.prop /system/
adb reboot
[Fascinate General] winnernet5000:
I tried all the various methods to get into download mode but one of two things happened: Either it would display a battery charging icon (not filled at all) or it would just display the Samsung logo briefly and then it would disappear/reappear continuously.

I finally read this really obscure method which was to remove battery/sd/usb hold all 3 buttons, wait for the Samsung logo to appear once, and then quickly let go, jam the battery in and connect the usb.

I still didn't have the yellow download thing, but the Samsung logo stopped pulsing and it was recognized in odin. I tried to flash and unfortunately it hung. I popped out the battery and the download logo appeared. I shoved the battery back into the phone within half a second and it recognized it in odin again, and this time this was the result:

Just some encouragement for those that thought their phone was bricked. There is still hope!

PS: The way I got into this mess was using titanium backup's secure delete feature (deletes system apps). Just a warning that you might want to stay away from that.
