[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] killsto:
Yeah, I've seen the thread before but forgot about it. Thanks for reminding me. And my point about the display was that it was on for such a short amount of time, yet still killing my battery.

I am now down to 30% or so after 3 hours or more of display time after calibration & rom switch- and I was streaming music through WiFi and using Bluetooth headphones. So it it seems like it made a huge difference =D

Thanks

Anyone having an issue with their GPS locking in the US, try enabling your GPS and use a program that is trying to lock your location then do figure 8's with your HD2 (usually used to calibrate your compass). Locks for me after 2 or 3 figure 8's.

Post back results. Thanks.

[General Questions and Answers] dreamgirl2011:
I have an evo 4g, and i just flashed MIUI ROM 1.4.8 which is the newest one, i think, and was wondering if anyone out there can fill me in on the wireless tethering as well as the qik app doesn't seem to have video to video chat available? The camera doesn't seem to have all the control options as seen on a video before flashing the ROM, and i can't seem to get APP or a weather clock widget?

Can someone please help me that is familiar witht his, i don't know if i did something wrong, or what? I am about to go back to my original stock!
[General Questions and Answers] plainjane:
If you want Sense, I'd flash a Sense Rom. I'm personally running MIUI 1.4.1 on my Evo right now & I like it a lot, but I don't like Sense very much. If you didn't wipe everything, you're going to have problems. If there are features you know are in that version, but you can't find them, try asking on the MIUI forums. If you want a clock/weather widget, MIUI Weather is pretty good. You can get it in the Android Apps forum or over at MIUI-Dev (you have an app for their forums, it came with the rom).

Also know that there are two camera apps - the MIUI camera app, and the AOSP camera app. I'm not sure if the video recording is the same in both apps or if it's different.

Good luck figuring it out. But as I said, if you really like Sense then I'd stick with a Sense ROM. If you have any other questions about MIUI/Evo stuff, you can send me a pm. I'm always happy to help :]
[XPERIA X10 General] ssj_jaypee:
Or whatever the next model Xperia will be.

I'm pretty happy with my X10 but only because it's been completely changed with a custom rom.

Sony really dropped the ball on this one.

The Arc looks really nice and a huge upgrade but since my X10 is doing well at the moment and there's not really a need for me to upgrade should I hang onto my X10 until the model after the Arc is announced? (maybe a year from now)
[XPERIA X10 General] SkyStars:
I would the keep X10, unless your very unsatisfied about an aspect of the X10.

Honestly the hardware should be okay for at least another year and the Arc doesn't isn't a huge upgrade in terms of hardware, not meaning that there aren't good improvements, and upgrading quickly between devices is not always a great idea.
[XPERIA X10 General] kitsVA:
Hardware specs wise, I don't see a huge benefit in upgrading to Arc. The only reason I want to upgrade is bigger screen size and awesome looking design. Frankly, I think SE could have done at least some of the specs better like more RAM and 16GB built-in memory or at least gave 32GB microSD card instead of 8GB which most of us will replace with at least 16GB.

If I am looking for better hardware specs, I will probably consider Galaxy S2. But, Samsung's lack any originality in design and not having a LED notification is a bumper.
[XPERIA X10 General] psychosliver:
Xperia Arc is not the "thing" yet

Sony Ericsson might be overlooking the competition on this one(once again). Last time I'd decided to upgrade from Xperia X1i to X10i were the following:

-OS switch. From Windows mobile to Android.

-Camera. X10 was one of the very few android with 8MP camera.

-Compatible battery. X10 uses the BST-41 battery model, I currently own 4 extra ones since acquisition of my previous X1.

Despite of the following drawbacks that I'm aware of:

-donut version (from that time July 2010). That time was the froyo(2.2) fever.

-Lower RAM compared to other manufacturer flagship phones.

-No dual touch(from that time July 2010).

-Low internal memory storage

-Bootloader not yet cracked(from that time July 2010).

What I'm waiting for as my turning points are the following:

-at least have 8GB internal memory storage & microSD support

-Dual-Core Processor. Given their at its mainstream(2nd gen onwards).

-HDMI out.

-More decent touchscreen support.

-within 4"-3.7" screen. I'm not into very big screens really.

-atleast 512mb RAM.

-atleast 1500mAh capacity battery

So base on these, Xperia Arc is not there yet. Similarly from the time they introduced Xperia X10 all they flaunt was the screen and camera. Flagship competition today battles it out with the dual-core hardware already, why haven't they?
[XPERIA X10 General] ssj_jaypee:
Yes you're actually right.

With the new Droid Bionic and other dual core smart phones coming out maybe I'll wait until next iteration of Xperia for big improvements.
[XPERIA X10 General] Bwyan Benton:
With the bootloader bypassed and custom kernal roms starting to roll out....i think I'm gonna save myself $700 and not purchase the arc. I'm gonna hang on to this beast and see where the devs take it from here.

I'm using trips miui rom with freekernal and I'm in awe at the difference. Its really making SE look bad that they couldn't do this for us from the start.
[XPERIA X10 General] Maverick_G:
Wait until MWC 2012.. ;)
[XPERIA X10 General] ballubas:
4g/lte should be another factor in deciding?
[XPERIA X10 General] ImS0Raw:
Sony will make a comeback... Just wait :p They are making money because they almost don't have. When they got it with the arc play and stuff they will make a great phone.
[XPERIA X10 General] xdmatt:
If you have the money, buy it :p it will encourage SE to make better products.

But in reality, I'd say it's not a big upgrade from X10.. I took the time yesterday to Arc-ify my X10 and it's looking so much alike, I love it.

If I could I'd get it just because of the biggest screen and slimmer body, and because I dont' like *any* of the crap LG or Samsung (design wise) is putting out.
[XPERIA X10 General] GoichiHollow:
Wait. Buying such expensive phones with not much diff is a waste.. Keep the x10 and use wolfbreaks rom, it is based on the ARC UI, and on the outside it's not that big diff between them..

Sent from my X10i
[XPERIA X10 General] Rash-182:
Wait for what the dev´s do with the bootloader or for the official gingerbread update, then decide.
[XPERIA X10 General] Hobbes2099:
This segways the OP a bit; but if I'm reading SE's intentions correctly, Sony Computer Entertainment is planning on pushing the PlayStation Suite Platform rather than top-of-the-line phones with huge hardware increments.

This means Sony will pour serious money to motivate OTHER handset makers to build phones capable of playing new top-tier games and keep the Xperia tech specs pretty much where you see the x10 and the Arc.

So in short; yeah: stick to the x10 until you see what SE announces after the Arc.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] krylon360:
Consider yourself lucky. I live in Murray, phone says 4G but my Vibrant pulls faster speeds on 3g. Lol
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mavictb:
Honestly man I was in SLC a couple weeks ago with my 4g and the speed sucked compaired to here in Reno... I get 7mb up and 1.8 up avg with much higher peaks in Reno. Even at the gateway downtown SLC the 4g sucked at about 3mb upload and 750k up.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] ambeestar:
i need a new city :)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] joedeveloper:
Vegas here. Even though they say we are one of the new turned up cities I'm still only getting 7mb down and 1.5 up on a typical day.

Here's something interesting though, when I upgraded from my G1 to my SGS4G they were supposed to update my data plan.

Logged into my TMO account and it still shows the G1 Unlimited data. Paying $25 instead of the $30.

My wife has a MT4G and her account did get upgraded to the 4G Unlimited data plan for $30 a month.

Possible my phone isn't going to get higher speeds based on the data plan still in my account? I'm doubting it, but I guess it's possible.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] ambeestar:
i still have the g1 data plan as well, i wonder if that does have anything to do with it. i kinda don't want to ask though, the 5 bucks a month is small but nice to not pay :P

p.s. for all interested, my battery is at 48% with pretty consistent usage and synching on all day. schweet!

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] nwpro3:
You can have my city.... except I don't have a city.... it's just a trailer park in the middle of nowhere. But then I get better speed here than I can in the nearest two cities, a ripping 16KB/SEC on a good day, on "AMERICAS LARGEST 4G NETWORK" I spend almost as much time downloading as I do talking to tech support. Then that's another story.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] DelinQuentisDQ:
Your data plan will not affect your data speeds in any way.

As for the phone showing 4G and having another 3G device pulling better speeds. The cause is that you are not in a true 4G area. The GS4G does not have an icon for 3G, even if it did, the phone cannot distinguish between 3G or 4G due to the fact that HSPA+ is still 3G hardware on the tower, but provides 4G speeds via software in the base station and the backhaul of the network.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] yentlequible:
I don't see how you are getting such bad speeds. I live in Kaysville, only 20 minutes from SLC and my average DL speed is usually around 5.0mb/s. The fastest I have gotten over 4g so far is 8.8mb/s.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] nwpro3:
If you are lucky enough to have a 3 or 4G tower in your area you will likely have good download speed. My download speed sucks. TMO's network is full of holes.... DEAD zones. Even in large areas like Los Angeles, CA. They have a long way to go before their network will catch up with the others.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] nrfitchett4:
I'm confused by this due to my dell streak 7 actually showing 3g and 4g at different times.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Bl4ckpheniX:
I actually get 3g , 4g, edge, and g.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] DelinQuentisDQ:
The GS4G does not even have an icon to represent 3G.

Please, if you can, provide a screenshot.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Bl4ckpheniX:
I will have to do it Monday, cause it only happens when I leave my office building. When I am in my office building I will often go into data roaming through at&t. This may have something to do with why it shows up. But it is there.

If you truly doubt it. Go to the market and download ninja morph. Then use it to make a copy of your framework-res.APK. From there open the COPY that you made. Look in framework-res.apk\res\drawable-hdpi-v4

Do not try and look in the actual phones framework-res.apk. Because it will break a couple things and you will have to re-flash. But if you make the copy it will automatically extract the apk and you can view the files with your computer.

Can I save my sms/text messages + contacts and their details on my PC or something? Or can I perhaps put them on my sim-card as I won't be giving away the sim-card?

I will be using another android phone, of course.
[G2 and Desire Z General] takram:
There are various programs on the market that perform sms backups/restores. I use SMS backup+ to backup my sms every few hours automatically to my gmail account under a label entitled "SMS." I think there is an option to restore SMS in that app too.

As for contacts, they should be backed up with your google account (email). Log into your google account on a computer and under contacts will be various groups. I've created a group specifically with phone numbers to appear under my contacts on android (Contacts [push menu]> display>click google account.and check the contact group you want on the phone).

By default, google will back up your contacts. Under settings, push accounts and sync, and manage your google account. There, the Sync contacts should be enabled and all of your contacts will sync to the google account (where you can edit the groups I've outlined above).

I would connect the phone to a computer, create a folder, and copy all of the contents of your SD card into that folder just in case. When you're ready to pass on the phone, wipe the sd card (on the computer or on the phone by settings>storage>erase sd card).

Reboot into recovery and wipe data, cache, etc. There might be a factory reset option as well. If you aren't rooted, I'm not sure, but there might be a key sequence that does the wipes for you. Try a google search for that.
[G2 and Desire Z General] ohgood:
market - smsbackup - works great here, puts all your sms on your sdcard. then email them to yourself.

then

settings - factory reset (wipes everything you ever did off the phone)

if you make a TiTanium Backup of the device first, you can just move everything from the sdcard to your new phone, or let google take care of the settings (online backup). either way, it's pretty painless.

what are you getting next ? :)

[G2 and Desire Z General] hriday26:

I had an add on for my ipod nano a while back called an itrip but i was wandering if my phone (droid x) had something in it that it could use to stream music over the radio in the proximity of myself. My friend said that it is possible to use bluetooth to stream it over the radio but i don't know if that is true? If anyone was willing to make that app im sure people would love it. Is it possible?
[Android Apps and Games] DroidJoe:
Sure. If your car has BT built into the receiver. Or you could use an FM transmitter (basically the same thing as your itrip) through the headphone jack on your phone. Or your car stereo might have a straight aux plug-in that you can take directly from the headphone jack on your phone. Lots of options, really.

but is it possible for the phone to transmit through something it has inside to transmit it to the fm radio?

As far as I'm aware the Goldcard is there to stop your phone from checking Client ID things when you flash a stock (unbranded) RUU. Custom ROMs by definition don't care who your carrier is, etc. so you don't need the goldcard in there.

But keep it safe, you'll need it if you ever have to go back to stock.
