[Nexus One General] ledrocnoc:
I am looking for a Nexus One replacement battery. Any recommendation appreciated on where to buy something good and reliable (and what to stay away from).

A battery with a higher capacity but same form factor as the standard one would be great.

Thanks.
[Nexus One General] y2k1ltd:
Mugen brand or Seidio
[Nexus One General] crawler9:
I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say the opposite of what most people will probably tell you... Go to eBay! I wouldn't eBay if you definitely need an extended battery, but if another battery with the same capacity of the original is good enough for you, you can get cheap knockoffs that perform as well as the stock battery without it costing you an arm and a leg.

My G1's previous owner must've overheated the original battery or something... it's puffed up and barely fits anymore and it doesn't hold more than an hour or two charge. I ordered a pack of three batteries off eBay that came with a wall charger. I got the batteries a couple weeks later. One battery was completely dead. One only holds about 90% as much as a stock battery usually does. One was perfect. I contacted the seller about the dead battery and he refunded my purchase price completely, no return required. All in all, it worked out pretty well for me... and the original cost was only seven or eight dollars.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krt41:
My Captivate doesn't seem to show detailed battery usage stats anymore. It's just the four vague options shown in the screenshot. WiFi would show up as well. I remember before it would show all sorts of applications and which ones used up X% of the battery and what not.

I haven't changed anything on the phone hardware wise. It's still the same stock battery that came with the phone last summer. BTW, I'm using Serendipity 6.4 with speedmod k13d-500hz. I tried flashing the kernel to a few different versions of Onix and speedmod. I flashed the ROM to Continuum, Phoenix and other versions of Serendipity. I can't seem to get it back. Anyone have suggestions?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crystalhand:
That was a change made in 2.2 not sure why they did that as I also liked the detailed stats. I believe some market apps show a detailed report. Can't think if any
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krt41:
Aw... well that's a bummer. Just out of curiosity, is it specifically a Samsung 2.2 thing, or a 2.2 thing in general? A lot of my buddies have 2.2 phones (Droids, Atrixes (Atrices? lol) and Thunderbolts and theirs works. So I'm guessing it probably is just a Samsung thing.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ny1t:
How do I connect two Xoom WiFi together without needing a WiFi connection? I am thinking about file transfers between them and video phone. I understand the range limitations if it were Bluetooth.

I would also like to connect over a WiFi connection as well.

Thanx, Galen
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kcarpenter:
Easiest way is with bluetooth and a bluetooth file transfer app available in the market (there are many). I use "BlueTooth File Transfer".

Wifi...not sure if you can setup the internal storage as a network share, launch a wifi tether app, then connect to the share from the other one - that would seem like a lot of effort.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quickmetal:
ya I'd agree, bluetooth is the way to go. If you went wifi it would have to be some kind of adhoc type setup and I think i read somewhere that the XOOM cant/wont do adhoc

Just got the thunderbolt, i was wondering is there anyway that the thunderbolt can go on metro?? Is there a tutorial because some people i called said they can do it, but for a ridiculous fee. Can anyone help??
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] necosino:
Chances are you could for voice. Whether or not data/sms/mms would work, I can't say, but I wouldn't bet any money on it.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baboulou:
I called around, and they said that they could do it. And im just wondering how can i flash it because out of all the phones i flashed, this phone is the HARDEST
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iflip:
They have a 4g android phone. Maybe you can port the room from that device or certain parts of rom. That's when aosp is working. I'm just guessing tho.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baboulou:
is there anyway i can get at talk and text to work at least???

[EVO 4G General] suarezn:
Hello my name is Suarezn and I'm a Flashoholic...S U A R E Z N...

All,

In an ideal world I could have my cake and eat it too. That means I would have a combination of Sense widgets (clock, weather, text to speech that works, 4G, etc) some AOSP features and some of the MIUI stuff (Theme manager, lock screens, visitor mode, etc). I was in MIUI, but it was so darn laggy on my phone that I ended up going back to a Froyo ROM (Koni's Elite) can't wait until these guys start making GB based roms.

Anyhow, since these guys don't all work together I want to know if I can replicate some of these features in my current ROM. Specifically I really like the MIUI dialer and Yes I've tried several other ones (Dialer one, Youlu, Go, etc) and they're all decent, but what I'm looking for is one that has the functionality the MIUI one has when you're in a call (it shows several buttons...Bluetooth, add a call, merge calls, etc) All the other ones default to the sense style while in-call which lacks those features.

Secondly any way to have a MIUI style lock screen with it's own wallpaper and the features to show unread messages, missed calls, double tap and you have the music controls available, etc...

...and does anyone else besides MIUI have the Visitor mode feature? This is cool I think cause you can lend your phone to someone and they can't change anything or see your calls and messages.

I know people say that they're different frameworks, but I think it is possible to port these features (i.e. the MIUI music player is now ported to all these other ROMs).

Will I ever be able to have everything I want in a ROM...I keep my fingers crossed.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[EVO 4G General] bballer71418:
No miui features will ever be able to be used on any other rom until the source is released (p.s. will never happen) yea the framework is completely different but would be able to port with source...same reason u will never see sense Widgets on anything other than sense...

The reason for the miui music is (I'm not 100% but I'm pretty sure...) because the app was not built into the framework but just an app from the system/apps folder which can be.easily pulled...and thanks to the wonderful devs here got it working everywhere...I too wish for a sense.miui cyanogenmod mix but unfortantly without source..its like creating honeycomb aosp right NW...sry man
[EVO 4G General] im0rtalz:
The OP was looking for suggestions on apps and widgets that would emulate of give the same purpose. The above reply was of very little help. I really cant say about the the dialer but have you tried using widget locker? I believe someone made a MIUI lockscreen for it and I know for a fact at least you can have a separate wallpaper screen by using that.

example here of lockscreen wall paper
[EVO 4G General] bballer71418:
I don't think he was looking for alternatives...based off his last few sentences abt the music player the op wanted exact ports from one rom to the other and all I said was.it wasn't possible
[EVO 4G General] Justin.G11:
Things MIUI has that no other ROM has which is why I keep endng up back on it:

1. MIUI Launcher

2. By far the best dialer

3. By far the best native SMS (fully skin-able and tons of features)

4. Native usage monitor with throttling (disable data/text after x, solid history)

5. Native firewall app (that can block out/in by data type)

6. By far the coolest File Explorer (with built in wifi FTP, and indexed results)

7. Native backup/restore of apps and SMS

8. Native Theme system that includes launch screen

If those Chinese Devs would just man up and give us WiMAX this ROM would be without flaw. A man can dream ...
[EVO 4G General] im0rtalz:
Yea I see your point on that one! I didn't read it all the way thru my fault it was like a total 180 from how it was at the beginning.
[EVO 4G General] suarezn:
Sorry if I didn't explain myself correctly...im0rtalz is correct. I know you can't currently port any of this from MIUI to a sense based ROM for instance, so I was looking for alternatives (apps or whatever) that could replicate it. I played with widget locker and it does give me some of the same functionality (actually more than MIUI). It's not as polished, but I can live with that. Now I only need some way to replicate the dialer (in-call options). I wonder if the reason why this is not done is because Sense doesn't allow it...just curious because it just seems like something a lot of people would want. The ability to add a call, merge calls, bluetooth on/off, etc..I know you can press menu and sort of get to the same options, but it's so much nicer to just have them right there in front of you.

Justin: You're correct those are killer features that I'm surprised other ROMs don't incorporate. The theme manager rocks...plus the ROM just looks much cleaner and more polished than others IMO.

Anyhow any help would be appreciated.
[Focus General] ionman:
Ever since I bought my Focus in November, I couldn't get it to go for more than 24 hours without randomly rebooting. Sometimes it would reboot as much as several times per hour.

After applying the April 19th update, my Focus has not frozen or randomly reset in the last 48hours. I am using the same exact SD card that I had in there before the update, which did not work.

Are others finding the same thing? If so, this is really good news!

- ionman
[Focus General] Sebo1985:
All of that sounds very promising. I will get my hands on another sandisk class 4 32gb card during next week and test it again (this time hoepfully without destroying it).
[Focus General] RGBell:
48 Hours and SD card is still working!

I have a 32GB Sandisk Class 2 card that I tried in my Focus prior to the NoDo update. The phone was somewhat sluggish (scrolling web pages, app lists, etc would lag and stutter) and would reboot itself every couple of days. It appeared that it returned to factory settings after the reboot but all of my data would return after power cycling the phone. The reboots didn't start until two days after installing the card.

I decided to try the card again after installing NoDo and reading this thread. I reinstalled all of my apps and filled up the phone with over 15GB of music, videos and pictures. I noticed immediately that the phone remained responsive. It has been 48 hours and I have seen no sluggishness and have had no reboots. I am crossing my fingers that this will continue. If they really did fix the SD card issue with the NoDo update why aren't they making a big deal out of it?
[Focus General] MartyLK:
Using a Sandisk 16GB class 4 pre and post update. Mine is more stable and very pleasing now. I don't see the slow main screen loading I did pre update.
[Focus General] RustyGrom:
Sandisk 16gb card. Rebooted constantly pre-Samsung update. Don't think it's rebooted a single time yet. I'm a happy man.
[Focus General] Pinger43:
Good question, until MS or Samsung actually come out and say they fixed the SD Card situation or come and say they did "something" concerning this issue I'm holding off..

You would think if they addressed this problem someone would say something!!! Lord knows if they did sales for the Focus would jump, the ability to add up to 32Gbs is a pretty big deal..
[Focus General] RGBell:
I am getting inconsistent results for the storage card write rate using WP Bench. I ran it multiple times, back to back with the following results: 5.6, 4.9, 4.9 3.2, reboot phone, 3.6, 3.2, 3.1 . The rest of the benchmarks remained very consistent. The phone warms up quite a bit after running the benchmark. Perhaps the performance is affected by internal heat? It probably is just unstable performance with this SD card, even though the phone has been very stable and responsive after the NoDo update.
[Focus General] JamesAllen:
SanDisk 16GB Class 2

I installed a SanDisk 16GB Class 2 when I purchased the Focus in late December last year. Some random reboots, maybe 3-4 in all that time, no lost data. Since I updated to the official ATT Samsung Update, not problems at all. Still too early to tell of course, but looking good.
[Focus General] jackleung:
SanDisk 32G class4

before nodo: Works but reboot ~ 2 days a time (sometimes don't find the card after reboot, and need another reboot)

hacked installed nodo: Works but seems to reboot less, about 4 days - 1 week a time (Still sometimes don't find the card after reboot, and need another reboot)

Samsung official nodo: works and don't notice the SD related reboot yet, but too early to says.
[Focus General] BigwaveMx:
After NoDo i bought a Sandisk 32gb class 4 and no issues since 3 weeks. No reboot, data remains after soft reset. Have almost 23gb of data.
[Focus General] TOA Duck:
Will you two guys above tell me where you bought your 32 gb class 4 sandisk's from. There are so many fakes out there and I dont wanna pay 150 bux for one

Thanks
[Focus General] ionman:
I had nearly the same issues, except mine would reboot even more often than that. I have gone for 5 days now without a single reboot. I am glad to hear that so many other people are having similar success!

It's a lot cheaper. :p This is the link where I brought mine: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003OA8T92

Are the 32 CLASS 4's fakes or are they real. (sandisk)

[Focus General] jodywallin:
I purchased one of the newly released Windows Phone approved Microsd cards from AT&T on Friday before I received the two AT&T updates the following week. The card is an 8GB Sandisk Class 4 card. The installed fine and works fine to date. No problems or issues that I have seen so far. I am very pleased with the card and the updates. I am using a Samsung Focus which I purchased in January. I currently show 14.59 GB Total Storage and 13.10 GB Available Storage.
[Focus General] BigwaveMx:
i get it in ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItemVersion&item=280652928461&view=all&tid=652993750018

the card doesn't have blister, but trust me, is genuine. The card arrives in 3 weeks to my country (Mexico) and comes from korea a think. I search the inferior code in google and found is a real item code in sandisk website.
[Focus General] knwldg0010:
My experience with Sandisk Class 2 32gb. I do have homebrew apps installed.

i just tested my sd card and it screwed everything up. I had to re-establish my phone with the Zune software, then i had to sign into my phone again. Now i can't add email accounts to my phone. Tried to revert back to my backup, and now it is not showing. I'm assuming because i had to re-establish my phone with the Zune software. If i revert i will lose homebrew and Unlock, right? Does anybody know how to bring back the backup again in zune? What are my options?

Hi I really need someones help.. really plz.

Im trying to root my phone because i wanted to fix the lag of it. having read and watch different method of rooting, i was convinced of using the superone click rooting which could be found also in our site. But the problem im experiencing is, the driver i have downloaded and installed is not working, i think. Because, whenever i tried to connect my phone in my laptop, it always say device is not recognized.

i have tried to use this driver (x86) because my laptop supports 32 bit OS

yet, my laptop is still not reading my phone. and since my laptop is not reading it, i couldnt perform the rooting via super one click

I really need anyones help here. Please, please.

Please tell me what to do.

Hi all. I want to have sense on a ROM which has not it. I've searched for a cab file of sense 2.5 vga ported but I didnt find a cab file! :( Its just for cooking!

Is there an installation file of the sense 2.5 or can somebody make a cab file from the packages which are ported by abrasive or amarullz?

big thanks for your help :)

So, I recently activated the Google Voice + Sprint integration and certain things about it are absolutely awesome. My only gripe with it is that all text messages are now coming in to my G-Voice app and ignoring the default messaging app on my phone. I can reply from my Messaging app and it shows up in G-Voice but new texts that come in skip the Messaging app completely.

Has anyone found a way around this behavior? G-Voice app is a nice-enough messaging client, but by no means ideal.
[EVO 4G General] indagroove:
That's the reason I de-integrated.
[EVO 4G General] jdh10475:
There is a fix I will post back when I'm at a computer.
[EVO 4G General] r0807:
not an expert, in fact, i use my evo as a wifi device only. But im somewhat certain that you can edit these settings while you are logged on to google voice on a computer.
[EVO 4G General] amw1972:
don't need to integrate to use GV...been using GV as my voice mail forever!!

Only issue is that you will have to maintain two different numbers...your Sprint number and your GV number.

Set up you can set up your GV as your voicemail...by having conditional call forwarding on your phone. Do believe I set it up thru Sprint directly...having the call forwarded to my GV number if the phonecall goes unanswered. From there the rules are set thru GV as to which outgoing message to play depending on what number is calling.

Haven't had a problem with getting voicemail at all.

Messaging can still be done thru your sprint number (using your or whichever messaging app) and you can still txt using GV (but it'll be thru your GV number)
[EVO 4G General] BrianDigital:
Um in the Google voice app in setting u can tell it too send sms as a text to your phone. Doing it right now and turned off Google voice notifications for sms
[EVO 4G General] gjones77:
All you need to do is go into the Google Voice application, go to Menu, Settings, Sync And Notifications, and take the check out of the send text message box.

Next.

Log into your Google Voice account on your computer and then click on teh gear icon in the top right hand corner of the page to go into your Google Voice Setting.

Click on the Voicemail Tab and then under the section "Voicemail Notifications" take the check out of both boxes.

You will now no longer receive text messages when you get a voicemail on Google Voice, but you will receive a notification on your phone just like Spring VVM use to do.

Hope that helps.
[EVO 4G General] indagroove:
I think you guys are missing the point. There is no way to separate sms from GV after the integration. You can enable the standard sms app on your cell phone via the online GV settings. Problem with that is you will get 2 notifications from every text received - one from GV and one from the sms app. There is no way to remove notifications from the GV app for sms only.
[EVO 4G General] indagroove:
To make use of the stock sms app on your phone log into GV online, then goto settings> phones> and click edit under your number, then select send texts to this phone. Still you have the issue I noted above.
[EVO 4G General] akarol:
No you don't. First you change the GV via your browser as you instructed. Then, in your GV phone application you uncheck All boxes in the Sync and Notifications section of the Settings. My phone is behaving as it used to prior to integration. I feel that it is important to integrate in case I want to use my number on someone else's phone, internationally, etc.
[EVO 4G General] indagroove:
Then are you still notified of new voice messages somehow?
[EVO 4G General] gjones77:
Yes, the same way Sprint's VVM currently does, I'm doing this now on CM7, Google Voice is integrated to work that way, when I get a voice mail I don't get an SMS or an email, it just notifies me on my phone in the notification area, does this on a standard EVO rom also.

Just follow the directions I laid out and it will work fine, I've tested it.
