Also, if I'm not mistaken, the phone will yell at you every time you plug it and say its not an HTC certified charger you could damage your battery. As far as I know it doesn't actually hurt your battery. It happened on my Incredible; don't know for sure on the TB
[Thunderbolt General] kierandill:
What could be worse is if it decides it is USB connected instead of AC, in which case it will draw 500mA or less.

I got this

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Rocketf...rger/1114106.p?id=1218221913668&skuId=1114106

which is a full 2A, microUSB cable and second USB port, shows up as AC and battery monitor shows a net of 600-700mA.

I use a blackberry charger at work and i have not had any issues with it at all. Also at home when im doing something network intensive like uploading a video to facebook i use my samsung galaxy tab charger brick because it provides 2 amps vs 1amp and as a result it will charge and upload where as if i use the stock charger it wont charge

[Nook Color Themes and Apps] d00med:
I'm a bit OT here, but I installed this, and used it to set a wallpaper via Perfect Viewer, which borked my whole tablet. Not sure what's going on, but it boots, works for a minute or two at one frame per second, and then reboots itself. None of the remapped button popups work, so the only thing I can do is a long press on the power button to shut down.

Edit: I had just enough time to uninstall Maxthon (which was pretty nice BTW) and Perfect Viewer, which resolved the boot loop, etc.. Not sure which app was the culprit.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] luciferii:
very strange, wish i could tell ya what it was.. what rom you using?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] d00med:
Forgot to say, but I'm on CM7 7.0.2 at 1.3 ghz.

I'm pretty sure it was Perfect Viewer's wallpaper handling, and CM7 does have issues with using 3rd party apps to set wallpapers. Sorry to derail the thread. Maxthon is a great browser.

[HTC Inspire 4G] capman231:
Hi Fellows, when I installed the OTA I lost the "HAC" feature which didn't work in the original software and was supposed to have been fixed in this update. I talked to HTC support and they asked me if I knew of anyone else loosing the "HAC" when they did the update. I told them I didn't know but I would ask.

Can anyone that has installed this update look in "Settings" under "Call" and see if you have "Hearing Aids" with the letters "HAC" in small print underneath it.

HTC thinks that there might be a glitch in the update, especially if others have lost the "HAC" to.

Thanks for your time.

[HTC Inspire 4G] Joe406:

[HTC Inspire 4G] capman231:
Hi Fellows, thanks for posting about the HAC going away. HTC has asked me to send the six numbers listed on the software information page after doing the update and I have already re-installed my original (Ingersol 2.4) software back on the phone, Can some one that has a stock phone with the update give me those six numbers please.

Thanks for your time.

Has found anything that works yet? Previously I was using ChevyNo1 1.2ghz ULV 7-slot kernel but with anything past the CM7 nightly #39 or CM7.0.2 it won't allow me to mount the SD card when connected via USB to the computer.

Anyone have any suggestions? I rather prefer the actual flashed kernel + setCPU vs milestone method.

Bought my streak a couple days ago and im absolutely loving it ! The only problem for me is i like to take my phone mountain biking so i can take photos, track my route, top speed, and of course for emergencies. However, with the streak being so big and expensive im finding it difficult to bring it with me :-(.

Usually id just plonk it in my backpocket or backpack but with the streak i just dont want to risk it getting damaged or lost. I've been looking through saddle bags which go under your seat but i dont fancy the velcro straps, does anyone have any experience with these things ? Are they likely to fall off ? Im just a little worried with the bumps and jumps the velcro might loosen and fall off.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] fragxion:
Hey Guys,

Lately I've been having problems with some of the newer HD2 roms. The problem is that my phone freezes after a couple of minutes using a rom. (screen just freezes and turns black, after few seconds phone reboots).

I 'think' these problems occurred when the new Rafpigna 1.9 kernel was released. I think Rafpigna 1.9 isn't compatible with my HD2.

For example:

I tried Coredroid witch comes with kernel 1.9. After installation phone boots ok but after a few minutes phone freezes. The problem could be solved by flashing the older Kernel 1.8 and the rom worked perfect.

However, with the new gingerbread Sense roms (like imilka's roms) this solution isn't working. I tried flashing other kernels but phone always reboots after few minutes.

Could it be the problem that older kernels are not Ginger Sense compatible? If so.. could someone direct me to other Ginger Kernels so i could try to flash them.

or if there is an other solution.. please tell:)

thanks in advance.

[HTC Inspire 4G] ddiehl:
I need some help- please.

I've been experimenting with some different radios. After not having much luck- upload speeds went down the crapper (no higher than .35 Mbps), I've since reflashed back to my stock radio, and my upload speeds still seem capped at .35Mbps. Before with the same radio I was averaging 1.25 Mbps. My download speeds are a little lower, but not by too much.

After doing some research, I read were flashing radios can actually "break" HSUPA. Is this true? If so, can it be regained, and if so, how?

Phone is an Inspire 4G rooted with Bubby's tool, and running CM7. Everything is the same now as was previously, when upload speeds were faster.

I would greatly appreciate any help. I'm still a bit of a novice at this, but trying to learn as I go.

Thanks in advance..

does "RUU back to stock" mean unrooting the phone and returning to factory spec?

[HTC Inspire 4G] darkside1904:
8 threads down from your thread is an old thread dealing with this issue. I am guessing you didn't search at all.
[HTC Inspire 4G] henrybravo:
This is just my opinion. Instead of unrooting your phone and all of that, just flash the new rooted stock RUU that is based on the 4/29 AT&T update. It contains everything you need to get up and running at full speeds - new radio, new RIL, and the proper build.prop settings. Once you've confirmed your speeds are good, then you can flash another ROM, and leave your radio as is.

Worked like a charm. Thanks.. Only thing I neglected to do was test GPS before reflashing back to CM7. My dl, and ul speeds are back to where they were, but still taking forever to acquire GPS. Don't know if this is a radio issue, or rom issue.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] derrickonline:
The only negative I can find with the Atrix is the sideloading problem. I've seen the gingerbreak thing, and the ginger (something else) that allows you to sideload apps.

I want to make sure that I can side load apps like any other Android phone. I don't want to have to run special scripts every time I want to side load an app.

I want to transfer the APK from dropbox to the Atrix and run/install it.

Does this gingerbreak stuff make this happen. Or do I have to do some convoluted procedure every time I want to install an APK?

Thanks.

[Acer Iconia A500] TrevFMT:
Ok so at least it's not a hardware problem for me.. I'm guessing it has to do with Acer's somewhat proprietary USB sync bloatware on the the device..
[Acer Iconia A500] muqali:
Why they didn't use mass storage or at least have an option for it is beyond me. Still, the interface and snappiness is pretty damn sweet. Gonna wait to see over the next 43 days how the reviews and my experience with the Iconia compare to the Asus. So far I'm leaning to keep the Acer.
[Acer Iconia A500] foxmeister:
The reason Honeycomb uses MTP over mass storage is so that both your computer and the tablet can access the storage simultaneously.

Remember that official Froyo APPS2SD is quite limited due to the storage being dismounted from the device when attached is USB mass storage mode.

Dave
[Acer Iconia A500] TrevFMT:
Ok, so I just uninstalled the acer sync app (read bloatware) off of my Tab and will do some testing to see if it has any effect will Mac syncing. Hopefully that will be the problem and I can get back to work on my dev stuff.

I am on win xp and having minor usb issues. i see no way of "safely" pulling out the usb cable. I am connecting teh acer to a usb hub and every time i reconnect i need to unplug he hub and plug it back in for the device to be recognized. works fin3e after that.
[Acer Iconia A500] TrevFMT:
Well I'm just going to have to return this thing. I REALLY love it.. but without USB support it's useless to me. Acer support doesn't even recognize it as a problem. What makes things worse is that I paid for it with a debit card at best buy.. so it'll take 10 BUSINESS DAYS to get a CHECK from Best Buy.

Maybe I'll just sell on ebay or something
[Acer Iconia A500] creativehelm:
Having the same issue!!

TrevFMT: I saw your question to google about it!

The thing that sucks is that it was working fine for me a couple days ago (4/32 4/3); and now the Android File Transfer application tries to open automatically when I connect the Acer to my mac via USB, but keeps crashing before it can fully launch.

The USB connection is important to me as well.

I'm thinking it's something strange with the OS; perhaps I made a change I'm not aware of after downloading some apps. I downloaded File Station, but I deleted it today when I started having the issue with Android File Transfer app.

If anyone can figure this out it would be much appreciated!!
[Acer Iconia A500] creativehelm:
OK, I have some good news and some bad news!

Good news:

I got the Android File Transfer app to launch and work correctly!

Bad news:

I had to "reset the software back to factory default configurations"; in other words, I had to loose all the sweetening I did to my A500 because I couldn't single out and identify what actually caused the problem in the first place.

Anyway, I've started over and hopefully the forthcoming updates to the OS will offer a fix.

*UPDATE*

For me, the problem appears to have something to do with the 4GB microSDHC card (SanDisk) I purchased this morning. After inserting the card, I can no longer get the Android File Transfer app to launch on my mac when I connect the A500 to it via USB -it just crashes. Even if I remove the card and try to connect again, it still crashes. But when I "reset the software back to factory default configurations" again, I can connect the A500 to the mac and the Android File Transfer app launches without any problems. So, it appears that the card does something to the OS.

Perhaps someone who knows the OS better than I do can figure out why this happens ...
[Acer Iconia A500] _motley:
Workaround

Macs don't natively support the Media Transfer Protocol (MTP), i.e. what Honeycomb is now using. Google's file transfer app isn't yet ready for prime time. Until they fix it, there is a open source workaround application called XNJB that works fine.

LOL...nice graph. Just tryin' to help the Apple fan boys out you know:)

Kidding aside, I am a software developer by trade (mainly .NET). I design/build enterprise level applications for fortune 500 companies. I also use Linux, OSX, Android, and I have an iPhone. I used to think the same thing about Apple after 15 years of Windows and Linux, but OSX is actually a really nice POSIX-compatible OS with BSD roots. I grew up programming on 8088s, C64's and Apple II's in the 80's. I just have a general love of OS's and computing in general...hence my nickname "motley".

I use a Mac at home and run VMWare Fusion so I can run Ubuntu and Windows as VMs and have their applications provided seamlessly all on one desktop. My favorite OS is Linux though, I have to admit.

[Acer Iconia A500] psychotropic:
I have a Macbook Pro and really, I've given up on actually plugging it in to a USB port. Honestly, I've found it more reliable to use a flash drive for transfer or (even more interesting) my NTFS external hard drive. I use my 1TB Toshiba external hard drive to transfer all kinds of movies and such to the tablet.

Now if this didn't have a full USB port, we'd have issues, but as it's the only one currently available* with Honeycomb and full USB port built into the tablet itself (not to mention rooted NTFS support), I could not even dream of returning this tablet.

*only one available as far as I know
