[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Griffon67:
Hello,

I currently have a problem with the automatic time synchronization.

When I set a correct time and switch to automatic, it slowly differs to a point where I have to "fix" the time myself (when more than 5 minutes).

I tried setting a completely false time (11am when it's only 8am) and switch automatic sync. It doesn't synchronize at all, it stayed on 11am and I had 3hours difference all day long.

I though it was my provider but a friend with an Iphone and the same provider manage to synchronize. Also, I found on my provider website a tutorial with the nexus S saying it should work (so I guess my provider support NITZ)

Any ideas ?

I currently have a stock nexus S and have SFR (in france) as a provider.

Thanks in advance

if network sync is not working for you

then i'll suggest this nice little app

it's simply the best
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Griffon67:
Aren't there a way to make the android sync working (or making the provider working with it)?

I'm the kind of person who likes having fewer application on his phone.

(but of course if there is no solution, I'll download the app)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
just for reference, i'm on stock 2.3.3 and it works pretty much right away after i enabled Network Sync in settings

a couple of weeks back during the NAM time change, i checked the box, and a few sec later it updated the time from my carrier

so, if there is a bug, it would not be from the AOS but rather something else, it could be a some other settings issues, or simply your phone carrier might not talk in the same language for the NTP sync... as in they are only compatible with iphones

or it could be a million of other things

the easiest way to find out is to factory reset the phone

uncheck the sync network time in settings

change the time to something wrong

then go back to settings and enable the sync network time

and if it changes after a couple of minutes, then your phone is fine, and it was probably some other installed apps causing the problem

[Galaxy 3 General] hillbeast:
I don't know if my suggestion is wrong or if I'm a total n00b or what the deal is, but what is up with the battery level issues on this phone? It goes from 100% down to 80% in like a matter of minutes even with no usage, it then drops steadily down to 50%, then it drops suddenly to 15%, then goes down to 10%, then 5%, then 1%. How can it be so hard to calculate a battery level?

Now I bet someone is going to come in here and bash my idea, and I apologise in advance if I look like a moron, but shouldn't the calculation for the battery level be something along the lines of:

((Current Voltage - Minimum Voltage) / (Maximum Voltage - Minimum Voltage)) * 100 = Current Battery Percent

If that would work (even if only a little better than the current method), can someone PLEASE write at least a widget or something that displays the actual battery level, not this inaccurate level that Samsung claims it to be, and if possible modify whatever it is that calculates it and replace it with said formula?

I tried this formula on my phone using a simple calculator (using 4.1V as my max and 3.5V as my minimum and a battery level widget to display the current voltage) and it seemed to work fine for me and it was a lot more accurate. I just wish it could be automated.
[Galaxy 3 General] Racoen:
I think that's a common issue on Galaxy 3. Sometimes it's accurate, sometimes not.

I unplug it, after half an hour it's at 80%, then drops by 10% down to 50% and after that suddenly to 5%. Then I turn it off and on again and it returns to 50% or 60%.

But as I said, sometimes it's accurate, but I don't know what causes it.

I've tried some battery widgets, but they all display the same information.
[Galaxy 3 General] Giosiken:
That was a common issue that happens more frequently when you flash your phone without a full charged battery, when that happens i try to wait until the batery ends and wait 2 o 3 hours and charge the phone while its off until it shows full charge
[Galaxy 3 General] vonuzu:
Yes, its the same with my G3.. But it always was like that, with eclair and now with froyo.
[Galaxy 3 General] stubborn_d0nkey:
These are the files that regulate it (its in c, but you my be able to understand some parts of it without it).

They didnt calculate it like that, but used an if..else if ...else method. and with fixed values of multiples of ten (except for lower battery).

I dunno how to compile from the sources, when I do I'll change it and send it to KARMA.

Also, sometimes when its low it doesnt show it correctly. Try rebooting if you suspect that.
[Galaxy 3 General] kamsterPL:
I've noticed that last 20-30% stays for almoust 10h, but first 80% only 1 day.
[Galaxy 3 General] AndroidSteff:
If it was only the faulty display of the percentage I normally wouldnt even care. There are many widgets that display the actual battery voltage which gives a much better indication of the actual SOC.

BUT: what really gets on my nerves is, that when the calculated battery level drops below some 10%, the G3 reduces the display brightness, doesnt let me use the camera, doesnt let me start my music app... even if the battery voltage is still at 3.7-3.8V.

The problem seems to be (correct me if i am wrong), that the G3 calculates the battery level with the minimum of the measured voltage in that discharge cycle. So if I use some app which consumes more power, or if I have many active downloads or whatever, the voltage of the battery can sag for a short time, which also causes the calculated battery level to drop. When the phone is idle again the battery voltage goes back up, but the percentage is stuck (in worst case at a very low level).

Since a reboot seems to make the phone re-evaluate the actual SOC, the question is, if there is an app (or if someone can make an app) that forces the phone to re-evaluate the SOC without rebooting (and so also reactivates camera etc.). Even better if the firmware was modified in a way, that the algorithm for determining the battery level uses a filtered value of the battery voltage so that a short term voltage sag does not affect the calculated battery level.

hi,

i'm on 3.4.3-11 android 2.2.1 stock rom.

i need to clean all data on the phone. when i try a factrory reset, it tells me to wait 10 mins but nothing happens.

is there another way to wipe all data?
[Defy Android Development] hitjock:
You can do this with ADB from the Android developper Kit (ADK).

Connect to your phone in development mode and use the command WIPE DATA.

Read more at http://developer.android.com/sdk/

Some phone also have a "Clear data" in the recovery menu....all depends on the type of your phone.... but ADB should work independant of the phone type.

Hope it helps.
[Defy Android Development] zyxwvut:
Try booting into stock recovery (vol down and power up phone, continue to hold vol down until recovery appears) then if your on eclair tap the bottom right corner of the screen and use the volume rocker to select wipe data and tap OK.

If your not on eclair and your running froyo you should already know how to do this. If not press vol up and vol down together instead of tapping on lower right screen. That will pull up menu
[HTC Incredible S] doctorsax:
Out of curiosity, I just sent an enquiry to HTC UK about when they might be officially updating the device to 2.3.3 or a subsequent version. Here's the answer I got:

"Thank you very much for contacting the HTC technical support help desk. We are excited to announce that HTC Incredible will receive the Gingerbread (Android 2.3) update in Summer 2011. Stay tuned for details as we get closer to the update availability. Please, for HTC INCREDIBLE S downloads and useful information about your device goes to: http://www.htc.com/uk/help_howtos.aspx?p_id=389"

I don't know about all of you, but this disappoints me - the Desire S is about to be released and yet that will be shipping with 2.3.3. And 'Summer'? That could easily be as late as September. This is all starting to sound very similar to the last time I was burned by HTC when I had a Hero and I was hanging around for 6 months waiting for a 2.x update from Android 1.5.

Anyway, I've told them I don't think this is good enough. I just hope someone finds a root exploit soon so there's a chance of me keeping vaguely up to date with new Android versions. Otherwise I'm going to be more and more tempted to sell this thing on later in the year and find something a bit more update-friendly.
[HTC Incredible S] vido.ardes:
to be honest, that just sound like the marketing department haven't been told anything, and that is a safe, wide target area, I wouldn't read too much into it.

I too suffered the Hero saga, don't want a repeat of that :D
[HTC Incredible S] doctorsax:
I see no reason why they shouldn't be able to release an update within the next month or so, rather than 'Summer'. It's the vagueness that concerns me more than anything else!

Also, am I right in thinking that all Incredible S models ship without any carrier/network specific branding or functions within the software? I'm hopeful that will cut down the time it takes to build and release the update.
[HTC Incredible S] NardVa:
I think the update comes in May or June the latest. You figure this phone is gone be in Canada on Virgin and Bell sometime early April and in the states on Verizon at the end of April. I figure once the phone is more widely available the update will come. If we are lucky maybe the official gingerbread rom for the Incredible S gets leaked in April.
[HTC Incredible S] tsuiwil:
According to Engadget Chinese (during the press conference of Desire S announcement in Taiwan), hTC representative suggested that Gingerbread for Incredible S would be available "in next 2 weeks". Considering European countries always get the OTA update earlier than Asia Pacific region (Desire, Desire HD, Desire Z, Aria, Legend...). If the news is true, UK should probably get the update in April.

And also they announced a partnership with Skype to provide customized version of Skype in 2.3 update to include video call ability, which is a great news for us. Just hope this Skype version works better than the one in Market...
[HTC Incredible S] chrisr27:
I had similar bs answer from them..

my enquiry was that as I purchased the phone sim/ carrier free, and it is the carriers who will release the update..which carrier sim wld I need to be using to get it?

in fact the reply bypassed the question completely, saying just 'most carriers wld release the updat (really htc? so do i have to use a sim from a carrier that supports IS???)...and then went on to say 'what is more important is that when the OTA is released by your carrier, make sure you are using wifi to download..

All I wanted was straight answer like 'O2 will def be releasing the update, it doesnt come direct from us, and expect it in xyz'..

HTC havent even released it to carriers yet, so when they do that'l take another couple of months for them to tamper with it..HTC obviously have a finished product which works with sense ui as they've been parading it around on the Desire S..so must be ready for release before now.
[HTC Incredible S] doctorsax:
More likely than not, the official update will get leaked anyway, so I wouldn't worry too much about that if you're lurking here as you'll probably see it here first. I'm on 3 in the UK who definitely don't support this phone, so this is what I'll probably be relying on unless the update comes direct from HTC. I wouldn't rely on HTC support to know where it's coming from, they're clearly as much in the dark as we are but have to give an answer of some kind. They don't count on people actually being clued up already, sadly.

I agree that if the Desire S is getting it, we should be getting it soon, but I do understand if there's a short delay due to it having to be tested fully on differing hardware. It's just the vagueness and the timescale that gets to me.
[HTC Incredible S] chrisr27:
if the official update does get leaked, could it be installed without root?

update def won't be from HTC direct, thats the one thing they are adamant about..your's is a perfect example of a carrier that therefore wouldnt be releasing the update..and as for the clowns at 3 dont get me started..I had a DHD from 3, contacted them about a ginbgerbread update and they just told me they were'nt doing it and that 2.1 was the latest version 3 had...erm, hello 3..i bought the phone from your shop with 2.2 already on it! :)

glad i got rid of my dhd tho...IS is tons better :)

Hi

I have just updated the ROM of my French HTC Elf

The new ROM is official ( HTC_Touch_FRA_2.20.406.1B) from HTC support site

The problem: after the installation, done successfully , the HTC does not boot !!!

It shows me "Smart Mobility" then restarts

PS:

IPL : 2.20.0002

SPL : 2.20.0000

Soft and HardReset gives nothing

I can not make CId Unloak because I am blocked in mode Bootloader (No. ActivSync) thus I can not install Cooked ( custom ) ROM

Any solution ?

If nothing works and the device is unusable, I would try some shipped roms with equivalent cid, even another language, flash them from SD card and hope to find a working rom, then cid unlock. I'm not telling to do that, just what I would :)

Bonne chance!

Bizarrely there is no official ROM with the same CID ( HTC__203 )

Hello All,

First post, sorry in advanced. Through this wonderful website I managed to root and use cyanomod on my Hero until I stepped on it one hungover morning and destroyed the USB input. Well I was wondering if I could some how wipe or clear, delete, even short circuit the phone in order to send it back to the MAN? Any advice would be greatly appreciated as I have tried to find an answer, even thought about quick capacitor discharge onto the remnants of my USB port.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gboyle84:
So I have tried an BT transfering an zip update onto the phone but since I updated my hboot to 1.47 already I cannot use that method. And another method involving flashing a radio zip and putting and update.img into the root folder would not work as I could not get the terminal emulator to move/write files to root.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laie1472:
If you can access your sd/card from within the rom threw a file manger and you have s-off. You can try searching the hero dev/section for the ruu in zip format or " pm me and I can email it to you". Once you have the zip in your email sync your gmail with your phone and dl the zip. Then move the zip out of your dl folder to the root of your sd/card and power off. Then power back on holding the volume down and power to enter fastboot and follow the instructions from there. Don't know if this will help. But it might good luck.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatthewJackal:
Hi!

I had a problem with my DHD - when I was playing 3D games it started to stutter i.e. my phone will work slow if the game runs. I checked the debugging USB in settings and the problem has gone.

It returned a few days ago, although I have checked debugging USB the games are slowing down (there're lags). I have only google account (any facebook, htc sense etc.) and I use Advanced Kill Manager.

My resources consumption in "rest" are: CPU - 3-20%, RAM - 274 MB (by Elixir), also I have free space - on phone 702 MB, and SD (class 4) 6,35 GB.

What now is the problem and how to fix it? How can I reduce the consumption of resources and although a little improve performance?

Thx for reply.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superstick1:
Hi. Could it be that you enable auto-sync? cause this will definitely contribute to lags if the data in sync'ing while you're playing games.

By the way, I would advice you to uninstall any task killers. It will not only consume more resources(e.g. battery) and it will also lag your device.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatthewJackal:
Today I did hard-reset (like before) and the problem has gone again.

Strange... Thx for advice ;)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Foladko:
Task killers set to auto kill might slow your phone down, but using them to auto kill on say 3 hours, or never, will (in my opinion) help your phone.

Some apps might start hogging up resources and 3d games will start to lag, so whenever that happens, just kill any non important apps. Android isn't perfect with memory manegment..

Hope this helps!
