thats so sick, where did you get that extended battery??
[Captivate General] studacris:
Whole thread on it, check the accessories section. The title is like 3500mah extended battery.TRusselo is the op.
[Captivate General] Soccer_Dad:
This is cheating a bit, since I have been near my computer enough to just check email there everyday, and I had wifi and data turned off most of the time. But I took a few calls, uploaded some files, checked GPS, etc. enough to consider this to be legitimate use for me.

Anyway, here's my screen shot - running Serendipity 6.4, Onix 2.0.1 kernel (working so well, why move to 2.0.5), and JQ1 modem. I really only kept the phone on at night so I could get a nice screen cap like this.

Edit: Standard battery that came with the phone.
[Captivate General] TRusselo:

[Captivate General] megatronisabeast:
My battery lasts around 8 hours a day. I listen to Pandora for about an hour, browse web apps, and have several email accounts so not really a surprise.

I am running Firefly 3.0 with lag fix enabled and battery mod enabled which has given me about an extra hour a day over stock.
[Captivate General] xThe Enforcer:
Battery mod? What's that?
[Captivate General] megatronisabeast:
It's not actually called battery mod, basically it's in cwm. You go in to the settings and before you get to lag fix there is a battery fix that you can apply. Should have explained that better at first, still learning terms and such.

When I try to access this link (through my browser) but it keeps trying to send me to the App Market to get an IRC client.

http://leedroid.com/ace-irc-chat/

I have installed and tried several and nothing changes this "error". Is there a setting that will "register" the IRC client with the browser?

Thanks,

Rick B.
[HTC Inspire 4G] dotsoa:
Well you could use an irc client like it states. I use Andchat on my inspire to connect to Freenode and Quakenet IRC networks. That link shows it uses "irc.handheld.net" for your own client but the webchat is an embedded freenode webclient. Doesn't make much sense unless thats a freenode server but idk.

Anyways. http://webchat.freenode.net/

Would be the browser client you would want if you cant figure out how to configure a client. The channel is #LeeDrOiD-ROMs

I've been in that channel before so i know its on freenode

If you try to configure a client try irc.freenode.net or chat.freenode.net as the server address.

[Xoom General] mrcanngo:
Does anyone here know of an app that is similar to the playbook's bridge app?

So that one could pair their Android based phone to there honeycomb tablet and bridge sms / calls / internet / notifications?

I've seen WebOS's previews and they seem excellent.

I've seen Blackberry's Playbook and the Bridge features.

Will Google respond with there own?

Thanks!

Nope. This doesn't exist. Especially down to the level that RIM and WebOS does it.

I meant the time to load an email on playbook using bridge,

the time to type a character and see the feedback on the screen,

the time to reply an email as a whole task,

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spitefulcheerio:
http://briefmobile.com/motorola-atrix-4g-root

^use gingerbreak. It's much easier and works great on the 1.57. Backup the contents of your sdcard though since it will erase all the data.

Also to enable sideloading, download root explorer and sqlite. Go into root explorer --> ers.settings/databases/settings.db. It'll bring you into sqlite. Select secure and the second line should be "install non market apps". Change the value from zero to one

After that, you can install custom ROMs through CWM. I personally like the Gladi ROM

So I have some code like:

Uri mediauri = MediaStore.Audio.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI;
// what fields to return
String[] projection = new String[] {
MediaStore.Audio.Media._ID,
//	MediaStore.Audio.Media._COUNT
};
String where = new String(MediaStore.Audio.Media.ARTIST_KEY + " LIKE \"" + query + "\"");

Cursor cursor = managedQuery(
mediauri, // which table to query
projection,	// which cols to return
where,	// which rows to return
null,	// selection arguments?
null	// order
);

// if results are returned
List<Integer> tracks = new ArrayList<Integer>();
if (cursor.moveToFirst()){
int count = 0;
int idcol = cursor.getColumnIndex(MediaStore.Audio.Media._ID);
int countcol = cursor.getColumnIndex(MediaStore.Audio.Media._COUNT);

do{
tracks.add(cursor.getInt(idcol));
if (count == 0){
count = cursor.getInt(countcol);
}
} while (cursor.moveToNext());
}
else{
Toast toast = Toast.makeText(this, "No tracks found", Toast.LENGTH_LONG);
toast.show();
}

but no matter what the query is, the tracks.size is always 0. yeah, so i'm a noob, so is there something stupid happening here? testing on a nexus s.
[Android Software Development] roomtek*8525:
Hello there

It looks like you;re trying to get all the tracks by a certain artist. I do mine this way:

String query = "Michael Jackson"; //case doesnt matter sql query "LIKE" will match anyway

final String[] sa1 = { "%" + query+ "%" };

Cursor cursor2 = getContentResolver().query(MediaStore.Audio.Artists.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI,

new String[] {MediaStore.Audio.Artists.NUMBER_OF_ALBUMS,

MediaStore.Audio.Artists.NUMBER_OF_TRACKS },

AlbumColumns.ARTIST + " LIKE ?", sa1, AlbumColumns.ARTIST);

// cursor2 will contain the tracks by the query artist
[Android Software Development] MarkusPO:
thanks. the problem that was really confusing me was that the docs were stating that artist_key is used for searching... except it's a non-human-readable string, so i was trying to find out if i had to convert the input string into some sort of equivalent and then compare!
[Android Software Development] roomtek*8525:
Youre welcome

Youre welcome. Usually i try to make the queries as vague as possible then narrow down. I'm glad i could help.
[Android Software Development] MarkusPO:
ok, so another question, after querying the db and building a playlist of tracks i want, a normal action_view intent doesn't trigger the default music player and forces a close.

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setType(MediaStore.Audio.Playlists.CONTENT_TYPE);
intent.setData(playlisturi);
startActivity(intent);

where playlisturi is set to the correct content uri for the playlist. is there another intent i'm overlooking i need to use to play a playlist?
[Android Software Development] alostpacket:
The default player doesnt support playlist intents.

Yes, it's that bad.
[Android Software Development] MarkusPO:
that's sad. so other than using a third party app, what other options do i have? are there any workarounds?
[Android Software Development] roomtek*8525:
You can write your own media player interface and then play the tracks using an instance of MediaPlayer.

-select first track by cursor, make it a URI pass it to media player

-use mediaplayer.OnCompleteLisstener() to listen for when the track ends

-reset media player and start step 1 again after moving to next cursor/track.

example:

step 1:

mediaPlayer = new MediaPlayer();

mediaPlayer.setOnCompletionListener(this);

step 900:

Uri u = Uri.withAppendedPath(MediaStore.Audio.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI, "" + file);

mediaPlayer.reset();

mediaPlayer.setDataSource(getBaseContext(), u);	mediaPlayer.setAudioStreamType(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC);

mediaPlayer.prepare();

// in the onPrepareListener you will then call mediaPlayer.play()

// in the oncompleteListener you will move your cursor to next or select next track from your list and then pass it as a file into the uri and start step 900 again.
[Android Software Development] MarkusPO:
wow. it's possible, but that's nasty! wouldn't it be easier to take the default music app source and add a playlist intent for it?
[Android Software Development] roomtek*8525:
...i dont think it easier to modify the source to do this.

but check the MusicUtils.java class in the source.

The point is what you want to do (play music from a certain artist) should not need so much work as to have to create a new music application with all the baggage it comes with.
[Android Software Development] alostpacket:
Yeah I had to write my own mini music player to play playlists in BlueMuze. It was a pain but not the hardest thing in the world either.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Quincey113:
My phone has been going great and giving no issues. Byt the other evening suddenly the toicuh screen stopped being responsive!!! Totally randomly. No drop or spil or anythign like that, no new software or roms recently.

When you open it the keyboard still lights up, and after a hard reset, you can navigate a bit using the keys. But ZERO response from the screen!!!

As i say, this is even with a hard reset!!! I also tried using masking tip to pressure the screen in case somethign was stuck.

Ok it mighty be the digitiser, or a loose connection. Im hoping not.

Has anyone experienced this or similar and is tehre anythign else i can try before i take the plunge and get someone to look at it??? (its out of warranty unfort)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ShowYouHow:
Ouch

Sorry to hear. It happened to me months back. It started with very uncalibrated clicks... making corner clicking impossible to compensate for.

I've recompensated, but that didn't last long - and it eventually degraded to no touch screen. With insurance, I did get a refurbish for my woes.

I flashed Stock ROM and relocked. No luck.

I'd still back up everything.

Reformat SD card.

Reflash stock ROM

Relock the device - all to see if it helps.

I did have a similar recent problem - but in this case it's because I was using a clip on hard case front that must've been putting pressure on the touch screen.

Hopefully one of these helps you out. Good luck
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] npahlavan:
When my screen stopped responding it was due to a more physical thing.

I read this somewhere and tried it, worked instantly!

You have to get your finger nail under the screen (try pushing your nail into the edge of the screen from the side) and lift the screen up a bit.

This worked for me. If you think its a physical and not software issue give it a shot.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mishgun1:

It's actually very simple to fix - slide a finger nail under the plastic by the speaker and gently pry the digitizer up. Then, put it back. You dont need to remove it totally from the phone. It will flex back to its flat shape as soon as the glue releases. As soon as you stick it back down, the touch screen will work again.

[myTouch 4G General] ags29:
Here are the settings I'm running on CM7 to get amazingly bananas battery life (with the display being on for about 5 hours!)..

1. Conservative governor: 245mhz - 1017mhz in CM7 settings

2. Install the 'BatteryCalibration' app from the market. This app caused the single biggest improvement for me after having flashed so many roms and never calibrating the battery. If you've calibrated it before though, I don't think it'll be very useful for you.

3. Install 'NoBars' from the market to automatically turn on airplane mode when you have no service. (This might be useless to some of you if you always have a signal; Very useful in NYC subway though)

4. Use a 2G toggle widget to have the phone only use the Edge connection when you only need it to receive calls/ texts and don't need the high speeds. I use the toggle widget in the CM7 notification bar. HUGE battery saver.

Give these a shot and let us know how they work for you :-)
[myTouch 4G General] ags29:
I've reached the end of my day and here are my final stats..

Mmy display has been on on over 5 hours now and I have 5% of the battery left. Seems more than good enough for me. Hopefully it will be for some of you too :-)

Edit - Updated with more recent stats
[myTouch 4G General] h22aboi:
Question: It's cool that your display was on for 3 hours, but what did you do as far as app usage??

If you did use your phone "a heck of a lot" wouldn't some apps like "internet" "maps" or something show up on the battery use %'s???

For example, currently, other than phone idle, cell standby, voice calls and android, there's also internet, mail, maps, and other apps that I used today alot.
[myTouch 4G General] ags29:
Good observation. I have no idea how android chooses which apps to show on there, but I think it depends on the ROM? I remember on Iced Glacier cell standby would barely use 5% of the battery and on CM7 it uses >40% consistently. Idk.

Maybe what those apps used up here was nothing compared to the display, wifi and phone idle time.. Just a guess.. But I did use the browser and xda app and listened to music via the Rdio app running in the background several times throughout the day, and sent multiple texts and have had my wifi on for about 5 hours now. I can't really find a menu that would show these statistics except in the Spare Parts app, and here you go..
