[Fascinate General] Mystique:
I again wanted to say thank you to all involved in making the Fascinate the best phone it can be.

I have instantly noticed a considerable battery life improvement using this radio.

Just thanks.

And juice defender doesn't hurt either.. :-)
[Fascinate General] Snakehn:
You must not be using your phone at all, mine only gives my around 7 hours.
[Fascinate General] Syn Ack:
Really? Only 30 hours? My white fascinate could go for 3 days with light usage and 2 with moderate. I bet you it could last for 4 days if I didn't do anything but text or call people. Oh and don't use battery apps, they don't do crap honestly. The only thing that kills your phone is games and the screen being on. But if you use your stock Froyo task manager then you're good.
[Fascinate General] neyenlives:
I am confused a little but mostly dissapointed in how people report usage and battery life around here. I think for the most part it is simply a result of how subjective the term "use" is defined in all it's various "states". For instance what I consider "heavy usage" might be beyond what a lot of people would consider to even be reasonably expected. On the other hand you can have another person who thinks using their phone once for a few minutes every hour is heavy usage. Some seem to be reporting standby time like it is normal usage, which depending on your definition could be true. Some people seem to be obviously "lengthening" their "epeen" for some unknown sad reason which is the part that is dissapointing.

I can say, once, I left mine on after using it all day Friday, set it on a table at home and I can't remember why but I didn't touch it again till Sunday afternoon. It literally only used a few percent battery life. This is abnormal usage to me. This might be "normal" for some people.

Some people like myself are device addicts. I don't go anywhere without my phone. I rarely make calls on it. I rarely use my powerful desktop for any casual pc use like web surfing, IRC, listening to music, personal gmail and work email via exchange. I do all of that on my phone. My day consists of picking up the phone fully charged at 7:30am, at work by 7:45, and then once in my cube the headphones get plugged in and between voodoo sound and power amp I get pretty lost in the tunes. All the while I am getting constant email delivery notices. I probably look something up on my phone a few times a day. It is on wifi all day at work and home.

Once home I stay on it after dinner....once the kids are away, the wife and I sit in the living room and she on her laptop and me on my phone we kinda watch shows together while surfing or whatever. So hours of constant use in the evening. My screen is on a lot because I don't go long without doing something on it.

I have recently been getting around 14-18 hours if I run it to dead on the 2.9.2 + latest Voodoo sound enabled kernel floating around but was on eb01 radio. I flashed ec01 radio tonight hopefully to see better battery life but there's no way in hell I would be expecting anything close to 30 hours or days!? Not unless I laid my phone down and walked away for a few days, then sure. I consider myself to be a fairly heavy user.
[Fascinate General] DeezNotes:
In my case Syn Ack is right about the screen. This past weekend I gave my phone a real test. I put EC01 on, got rid of most of the bloat and left the phone in that state. Didn't install any extra apps that would run in the background. Only had 1 home screen with nothing on it but a black wallpaper. The phone looks boring as ****. lol

From what I saw, the only things eating battery was having the screen on, a small bit of time with no signal, followed by android system and any other apps I may have used which didn't make up much compared to the screen.

I love the screen, but it's like a high maintenance girlfriend. Its sucking the life outta this phone.
[Fascinate General] KitsuneKnight:
That's pretty much par for the course. The screen is always the biggest battery drain in any phone out there, out of any piece of hardware in any phone. Trying to keep the screen's brightness as low as possible, and it off whenever you don't need it on, are probably the best things you can do to improve your battery life (followed by deleting crappy widgets like the Facebook one that keep your network up constantly).

Then again, I set my screen to have a 2 minute timeout, because the 15 or so second default way too often caused the screen to turn off on me while I was reading something and I generally use the power button to turn it off when I'm done. I figure, as long as I can make it till night, that's good enough for this phone 95% of the time (the other 5%, I can generally plan ahead).
[Fascinate General] M00NEY:
I honestly don't see poor battery life as in issue for this phone.

Mine will last for 3 days of extremely light usage, 2 days with light-ish usage, and if I hammer on it and play some games, 14 hours or so, it'll beep at me.

IMO, this is not an issue. I have seen the battery life increase with the latest updates (OC Kernel from imnutz, SFC2.9.2, EC01 radio) - and I was happy before.

I also don;t think that you can really count on what other people see as anything but a hopeful ballpark figure. We all know that each of the phones HW is a little different. We all know that our setups vary greatly. We all know that we use the phone differently.

So, hoping that something will be a be all, end all guide as to how long your phone will stay powered depends on so many variables that you have to tweak it for your use.

FWIW, I run live wallpaper, 7 screens and use OC steps up to 1400 and I am very pleased, dare I say impressed with the life I get out of the phone. I also keep a spare battery fully charged - I guess this helps me care less and just ooh and ahh when it lasts more than a day.
[Fascinate General] chefthomas99:
Mine gets 150 hours...... Turned off.
[Fascinate General] Syn Ack:
With the phone sleeping (screen off), my battery drops at MOST 2% per hour. I don't use but a couple of widgets, Facebook and weather. My sync time for Facebook is 1 hour and weather is 2 hours.

For me, when I was referring to my 2-3 days of battery life:

Light usage (3 days): a few phone calls a day, < 25 texts, no internet, no market, no games, no battery control apps except using Task Manager wisely.

Moderate usage (2 days): regular phone calls, < 50 texts, some internet, maybe a game or 2 but not for long, Task manager.

Heavy usage (1.5 days): regular phone calls, texting all the time, heavy internet, games, rom flashing, playing music a bunch.

Super ridiculously heavy (1 day): phone/text/internet/games/music, all nonstop heavy usage.

Super light (3+):

Data (3G) off, a couple calls, light texting, using Task manager wisely. It can happen...

One thing I have come to find out is that not only your screen is the number 1 factor but if you live in an area that phases your phone in and out of 3G very often, your phone could easily drain 10% per hour. The IT building here on my campus has god awful reception and it drains at 10% per hour but when I go home I only see 1-2% not doing anything at all. Wifi is a battery drainer too.

There were a few nights where I remember hitting task manager and clearing out every single task and everything possible running, turning off data, and turning the screen off and the phone did not even lose 1% of battery over 9 hours. Perfect reception.

So if you see terrible battery, try using your screen a little less, or turn down the brightness. Try a *228 for your radio towers update. Cell standby can you get hard if you're in bad reception.

The best thing you could do to save your battery is kill all of your tasks, turn off data, turn your screen off, and change your sync intervals to 1hour+.
[Fascinate General] jpaulwaite:
i'm on ec01 for about 12 hours now, sFc, in nemesis OTB kernal underclocked using volt settings gives me about a 8 hours with the amount of usage I put it through. Serious wifi, network usage, processor spiking and multi-tasking. Overall what one would expect from android.
[Fascinate General] Syn Ack:
Heavy user, this seems about right. Your battery goes from 100% to what % before you recharge?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] chavezezequiel:
Okay so i had a rooted phone with xionia kernel and decided to use my nandroid backup to restore to stock VM Rom.

If i can get any help to get my phone back to stock or rooted just so i can still use it, it would be deeply appreciated.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] marioemp2k7:
You can try to help yourself by using the RomTools present here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=971245

Other than that the only other solution I can see right now is to enter in Emergency\Download mode and flash with KDZ.

Please follow the guide here: http://prepaidandroid.org/index.php?title=How_to_restore_your_Optimus_V_to_almost_original_condition

and try to flash the stock recovery again.

Just went to market and rom manager updated like 3 times. looks good except for some reason I lost my premium status. Went to link sent to me when I paid and it longer works. Anybody else having this problem. Sent email to dev. from market anyone know how to get in touch with him.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mazda:
I don't think you can do anything but just email the developer! Unless you know the dude's personal cell phone or anything, no one on here can do much for you dude! In my personal experience in dealing with these like this, I always did a nandroid backup and flashed the rom again along with the gaaps again and as crazy as that sounds.....it works like 75 of the time...lol....GOOD LUCK AND HOPEFULLY YOU CAN GET A REPLY SOON!!

Just flashed my phone with syndicate frozen rom. First thing how do I get my buddies now app back. I coped the APK into the system folder but it didn't come back. Do I need a samsung widget as well? I also noticed that when I swype it doesn't add spacees when I lift to go to the next word like it used to. Any suggestions? Thanks
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gtuansdiamm:
For swype press the button on the bottom left corner» hit options» check auto spacing

For buddies now to work you need touch wiz launcher plus if the widget file name was changed it won't work
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dreamsforgotten:
You need to use the fully loaded version not the standard that has full touchwiz functionality
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vapur:
Additonal Help.

(Note installed Fully Loaded ROM It is missing samsung widgets) I turned off put spaces between words and turned it back on that fixed Swype, thanks. I copied using root explorer My Buddies, Memo Pad, and Sprint TV from my stock rom. I put sprint tv in the system/app folder and the app popped up. The Memo Pad won't show and My Buddies won't show I assume these other apps are dependent on something. Maybe a samsung widget APK? Any idea on how to get My Buddies and the Memo Pad back. qbking77 made a great video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qvwEGUQsn8I he didn't say where he got the memopad APK that works. Any help on the My Buddies widget would be great use that all the time. Thanks
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qbking77:
Glad you liked it :)

I attached the memo.apk I used. Let me know how it goes!
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vapur:
Just tried the memo.apk you attached that worked :) Any chance you were able to get the buddies now to work. Once I got that I think I am good. Thanks again.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vapur:
Tried the buddies now off a stock phone, tried the one from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=13007650#post13007650. I also copied in the ODEX File. When I go my background hold down the backgroun and choose widgets no Buddies now. Am I missing something? Thanks

[Atrix 4G General] psychephylax:
I have a very strange problem with my Atrix.

When I upgraded to 5.3.0 Maps I was able to use the check in feature...Then it mysteriously disappeared from Google Maps. I was able to get it back by re-installing and updating google maps again...and then it disappeared again in about a week. Short of downloading and reinstalling Google maps every 7 days I want to find out if this is a problem on my phone, or someone else has noticed similar behavior.

--Edit--

One thing I just tried was going into Application Manager and clearing all the data (Then having to re-log in)...This brought check-in options back.
[Atrix 4G General] psychephylax:
did it again

This morning my check-in ability is gone...Even clearing the data, rebooting the phone and reinstalling the applicaton updates did not fix it this time.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] funkyblue04:
Hello

Just wondering why there is a Arc and Play forum but not one for the Neo?

Thanks
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] funkyblue04:
I presume no one wants to answer? It's really frustrating. People are being forced to post hacks in the Arc forum. It is one of three new SE phones, yet why does it not have it's own forum?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] somemadcaaant:
Maybe the uptake of the phone is low at the moment, I was looking at this phone as I prefer a smaller screen with latest firmware and good camera... but i'd probably guess it will have a very low community here, the Arc will probs be a better choice in this regard.

Very hard to find the latest/best bang/ for buck phone at the moment, all quite ugly and none that have greater features then the next and stand out imho.

-smc
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] funkyblue04:
Still no news? It's frustrating there is no forum.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] josephnero:
just wait for a while.iam sure it will be created.just wait for the phone to sell more

Hope see it soon.....
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] hurikan23:
When create neo forum?

We would like neo forum.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Khisha:
I think the answer to this question is neo availability.

Before the big earthquake that hit Japan in march the plan was to launch Arc; Play and Neo on April 1. But due to the shortage of those 8.1 mp camera modules, which was a result of the earthquake SE decided to postpone neo to Q3 and use the stock for Arc and Play.

There was a small initial batch created and released in Hong-Kong. I guess most of the phones in the world are from HK, aren't they.

I heard that as the supply is getting back at full capacity neo is starting it sales over the world these days. I guess it will take a while untill it will be commonly available. I guess that would be the day when neo forum would be opened @XDA.

Perhaps because Sony are a bunch of fools and the phones they make are crap and shouldn't be sullying the face of Android or smartphones in general?

You lot should be ashamed of yourselves for forking over your hard earned cash to a company that doesn't give the first toss about their customers, their privacy or their customer service. That and for buying a terrible Android handset.

Viva la Samsung.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] juzz86:
LMAO! Harsh, but true. Took the liberty of censoring for you :) Thanks for making my day.

Also, you need at least 1,000 interested people before a forum submission will be considered (uptake on the Neo has indeed been slow). So round up all your mates ;)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] fcabana:
I dont know, i only know that neo need a forum.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] marcindpol:
i am a neo owner myself and already gave my support for the forum!, however i wanted to express how stupid to me that whole situation with the forum we ask for is:

why it is so difficult to give us this forum?, even some crap phones have their sections!

the community behind Neo is big and rapidly growing, you can even see neo related topics all over this forums!, we simply need our separated section!

Having Neo forums will also help with so much confusion we the owners have atm while attempting to root, unbrand etc....(i am one of them, i want to unbrand my phone but do not know how to safely do it, i am simply confused)

Please seriously consider giving us that forum:)

I am not a native English speaker so please do not bash me for my mistakes.
