[Nexus S General] mbolinao:
I have almost the same activity as yours. Was using Launcher Pro too. I switched to Go Launcher and noticed longer battery life. I then tried to Google Launcher Pro reviews and some did the same as they say it eats quite an amount of juice. Others use the simple one, the Helix launcher I think. My Nexus S is not rooted too like yours, just the stock OS/ROM.
[Nexus S General] mindwalkr:
Apart from Launcher Pro I've tried ADW Launcher. I found it to be a bit laggy compared to Launcher Pro so I've kept launcher pro. I get around 30 hours or more with my regular usage so I think I'll keep Launcher Pro. Also looking at the battery and CPU usage of Launcher Pro I don't really see that much of a problem. But I'll still look into this Helix launcher and see what it has to offer :)

1 day normal use with wifi sms ecc....
[Nexus S General] robrob777:
5 days using it as a "Phone"

Standard 1500mah, CM7, Lucid. 9020T

Voice calls 2h 39m

Display 2h 11m

wifi 7 h 31m

I have to mention that I connected it(you can see a small spike in the graph) around 10 mins to transfer a CM7 update, and some music. but i flashed 1 rom and 2 kernel updates. so..

EDIT:

Added detailed SS.

Note: The red and blue colors are inverted.

By the way, I am under clocked to 800mhz/ondemand, I have toggles for Data/Wifi (only use them when I need to check email, facebook, etc), No task killers, no setcpu.

Maybe 20 sms per day.

WOW, I just realized that the Phone was not 100% charged, you can see in the 3rd pic. I remember I charged to 91-93%.
[Nexus S General] jietzer:
thats pretty amazing lol i just dont think i could not use my phone the way ive come accustom to it since like back in the sidekick days..

ive had my nexus for about a week now coming from the evo, i get about 14 hours heavy use like 4hrs worth of display on time, and more then 24 hours with normal use.. Stock rom and kernel
[Nexus S General] nevrlow:
my battery life on my ns is amazing. get about 17 to 20 hrs with ebuddy running in the background full time.
[Nexus S General] Roscopcoletrain:
Also looks like you've got it in airplane mode/out of service a lot of the time going by the red signal bars
[Nexus S General] robrob777:
Those red signal bars are blue in my phone, somehow the screenshot changed the colors of those bars and the battery (red to blue). maybe is something with voodo?

Anyway Airplane mode was off all the time, also the phone was on all the time even at night.
[Nexus S General] Roscopcoletrain:
can you click on the graph and give us a screen shot?
[Nexus S General] robrob777:
Done, added to the original post.

there is a charging moment, when I transferred the CM7 update and music.

There are some moments when the line goes up, I think it is because of the reboots of the CM7 update or 2/3 times reboots to update kernel (I downloaded the kernels directly from the phone)
[Nexus S General] jenue:
what did you changed to manage that phone to sustain for 5 days?

Thanks
[Nexus S General] jblues1969:
Bad Battery Life on mine

Hey, guys...

My wife just got her Nexus S yesterday from Sprint and it's pretty much in stock condition, although she's installed WhatsApp and a few other things.

She used up her battery while at work today with very light usage.

What should she do to improve it? My Epic Touch 4G had some power saving settings baked in by Samsung, but obviously the Nexus doesn't have that stuff.
[Nexus S General] robrob777:
You can start by disabling 4G, and if the problem continues.. autosync... turn wifi off if not needed.
[Xperia Arc General] Akagi Shigeru:
Hello everyone:

I want to root my Arc and find that all root methods are under windows conditions.

I am a mac user and do not own a PC.

What can I do?
[Xperia Arc General] johnnylc:
Boot Camp or VMWare Fusion/Parallel Desktop..etc.
[Xperia Arc General] commodoor:
Just follow the same instruction like the windows one. i'm also a mac user don't own any widnwos an rooted. you need fastboot-mac and adb for mac.

I don't have them with if you can't find it i can send them when i;m home. Just pm me and i will also send you the instructions if you get lost ;)
[Xperia Arc General] whocancatchme:
You don't even need a pc or a mac, you can download gingerbreak from your browser on your phone and you're good to go...
[Xperia Arc General] refract:
Sorry to derail, but this stroke me funny. MAC user buying a Android instead of a iPhone ? :D

But yeah, as the dude above me said, you just need to download Gingerbreak, can do it via your phone too.
[Xperia Arc General] commodoor:
I'm a unix user so i use Linux and mac it doesn't mean that i'm gonna buy a Iphone. I like android above IOS.

<Ontopic>

i forgot gingerbreak :D but it's more what you want to do. if you don't want to unlock bootloader it's best to use gingerbreak.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mouse at Large:
Got my SGSII yesterday and happily rooted it via Supercurio's kernel and restored apps, data etc.

Just out of interest, I ran quadrant and scored around 3000 which I suppose is so-so :p

However, the paranoia comes in when I look at the CPU info in Quadrant which shows:-

Name : ARMv7 Processor rev 1 (v7l)

<snip>

Cores: 1

Architecture: 7

<snip>

I'm going to hazard a guess and put the single core reading down to misreporting by Quadrant, but you never know....:eek:

Any thought?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stian230:
That most be some mistake ARMv7 Processor rev 1 (v7l) is an "old" processor.

Droid.droidx and HTC incredible got it . And I doubt it scores over 3000 in quadrant.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikelisgod:
No, it's not old. ARMv* mean architecture of the ARM CPU. ARM11 mean model or so. ARMv7 is last generation, don't worry. For more info look for ARM on Wikipedia.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stian230:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mouse at Large:
And the paranoia ramps up a notch........:rolleyes:

My "Android System Information" app gives the same CPU architecture.

Has anyone else tried this in Quadrant etc???

Btw, "About Phone" in settings gives:

Model Number: GT-I9100

Baseband Version: I9100XXKDJ

Build number:GINGERBREAD .XWKE1

The kernel is Supercurio's :D

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MaxxiB:
stock orange no kernel downloads or anything gives me:

Name: ARMv7 Processor rev 1 (v7l)

Current freq.: 200MhZ

Max Freq.: 1200MhZ

Min Freq.: 200MhZ

Cores: 1

Architecture: 7

and so on.. is this quadrant misreading the processor as only 1 core or not detecting the other core, or is it that we have only been sold 1 core and samsung have lied to us? my box says dual core and I want it :(
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mouse at Large:
Being a non-techie and not wanting to stoke paranoia further, I found some stuff on a discussion page that implies that the second core only kicks in when intensive activity requires and therefore may not register...

Hello.

If u check with ADB or Android System Info you have info Core: 1 ... but when u check with Quadrant Standard Edition application you have Core: 2

I think everythink is OK and problem is in application. ;)

Push Service from my Email Server to Galaxy Tab (or other Phones which supports Exchange)

is so great!!

Every change of my Outlook Contacts, Calendars, Mails will automatically pushed to my Tab

over GSM or WiFi, without connecting the Tab to a computer with Kies or other Sync Software.

All you need is a

1. Linux Server i.e. Unbuntu 10.04

(Apache,MySQL,PHP5,postfix installed and working)

2. Zarafa collaboration Server (Exchange like Mailserver)

(Provides POP3, SPOP3, IMAP, SIMAP

100% MAPI stable Outlook Sharing

Outlook "Look & Feel" webaccess)

3. Z_Push

And the best... it's all free. :)

Seems like a rather convoluted way to achieve something that can easily be done just by having a Gmail account! :)

Dave
[Galaxy Tab General] nabuhonodozor:
As it was said, you can have the same much easly by configuring your own domain under google.
[Galaxy Tab General] fwelland:
Having a gmail account isn't a solution for lots of peeps with corporate exchange based email systems. Especially for those that only allow active sync access with no pop or imap.

There are several direct email clients supporting active sync, including the 'built in' android email clients. For example,Touchdown works quite well.

Another proxied-like solution that is a bit simpler than the above is DAVmail http://davmail.sourceforge.net/ This does require OWA on the exchange server, but owa being 'on' seems more common than exchange servers with pop or imap support. DAVmail can get rid of one intermediate 'hop' in the above solution.
[Galaxy Tab General] foxmeister:
Yes, we know that - we're commenting on setting up your own pseudo-exchange server setup just to gain push email!

[Galaxy S I9000 General] EUR1LEC:
Hi!

I have a problem. The phone is refusing to get a service on GSM. It has just stop working.

Initial i thought it was wrong with my SIM, I ordered a new one and the problem remains.

It can connect to 3G fine, and sometime I can get on the GSM bands but then I have edge (I always use to have GPRS (G) )

At home I only get "no service / emergency calls only".

I've tried another sim from another provider and i get GSM from them.

My girlfriend has the same provider and she gets full coverage on the same location as me when all I get is "no service"

I've tried changing modem and roms. No success.

Currently i have CM7 with MIUI, problem remains.

Anyone has a clue whats wrong, my antenna? need service?:confused:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] yaku99:
Hi,

I've just reveiced my ZTE Blade yesterday. I have installed some unimportant apps like mortplayer. Today i turned it up with VOL- pressed and my phone is stuck at the white ftm screen(i think everyone know what i mean) and i just can't do anything. Seems like i dont have access to anything. First i tried flashing with clockwork 2.5.1.8 but after typing command in cmd there's just <waiting for device> and thing's going on (no cpu usage by cmd and ram usage is like 'just started'). Then i tried poping out sim card and battery but nothing happend. I think it's probably brick. I digged a little bit and i have posts looking like with the same problem on others board where those people went to Orange and they had replaced their phones. I'll probably do same but first i wanted to ask you. Sry for bad english cause i'm still learning. Please help

Sry for wall of text
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] robertsmith1873:
Comrades,

I am coming to the end of my contract just in time for the Sensation.. :confused:

I love my HD2 (android) but a few wee things annoy me like low call voice (switched on and off speaker, only works for that call) and battery drain.

Is the DFT or other Android ROMs as fast and stable as the stock HTC rom?

I know the phone will be faster but it won’t be long until the XDA chaps crack the new ROM and I can put it on to the HD2.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] xdadJeroen:
Sensation obviously, but i would wait for the gsmversion of the evo3d(if that one still comes)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] conantroutman:
I was excited about the sensation coming to t mobile as well..........

Until I saw the specs of the SGS2 and sensation side by side.

I hate sense (on android) and touchwiz but when you look at the specs against one another its ridiculous...

HTC really dropped the ball with the sensation and to be honest you'd be better off getting the Sensation from T-mobile selling it, buying an HD2 and have some money left over :D

Either that or an SGS2 (27th may on Tmo)

Edit;

lol if I'd actually paid attention when reading your post I'd have seen that you already have an HD2...

If its the newer version of sense you want then you'd be better with the sensation as its going to have the extra RAM to deal with the memory hogging abomination that is HTC Sense.....

(I hate sense, in case you hadnt noticed)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] malybru:
Hi,

when I read your post,I went here:

http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=pdacomparer&id1=2828&id2=2842

Very little difference,apart from camera megapixels and RAM.

I,m erring on the side of Sensation,because of the camera...

:)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] giorgosfil13:
Sensation hands down!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] robertsmith1873:
As a Photographer

I would not get too bothered with camera MP density. The Iphones camera is **** hot @ 5MP.

The EVO 3D sound good, more RAM and a friggin 3D screen………..but the back of it is ugly.

If you wait for the next phone to arrive you would never have a phone. LOL.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] digiholic:
Personally I'm going to keep my HD2 going until I find out about the SGSII coming to T-Mobile. I'm also due an upgrade and I just don't know if I want to use it on the Sensation with the SGSII out there. Luckily my HD2 does everything I need so no rush here. Will probably wait to see them both in person in a couple months. SGSII should be ROM'd by then and we will know more about Sensation and if can be ROM'd.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Kailkti:
Well generally, custom roms are faster than stock roms. E.g. Our custom rom of the desire hd is faster than a desire hd running its stock rom. However seeing as the sensation is per say 2x the performance of the HD2, the sensation running on its stock rom will more likely be better than the HD2 running a custom rom based on the sensation.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] vua777:
dont know if the qHD 960x540 will be support in near future?

GS2 hardware is good with 1 gb ram, but dont how good is the GPU?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] marc187:
Yes the nexushd2-gingerbread v2.7 is fast,stable and next to boyppc-shiftpda gingersense.s v20 it is the best rom in my opinion
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] bmar08:
i know what you are going through... i love my HD2 but that Pyramid looks amazing in its own. What im doing is just keeping my HD2 and will put the ROM on it when a cook like Imilka figures out a nice port of it or the MyTouch 4G Slide ROM. Im always looking for the latest ROM on my phone and with the HD2 i can do that now. If i got the Pyramid I know i would be anxious for hacks to come for it. Once my HD2 craps out that would be my first choice because HTC makes a great phone, Im leary of Samsung because of all the update problems that happens with it so far on Tmo... Im actually trying out a EVO 3D ROM < Kingdom > now and its been running pretty smooth. Well hopefully this gives you some insight on your choice...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Kailkti:
Lawl this update thing has become much too dramatic. xD

It's not samsung that's slowing down these updates or giving slow updates, it's the carriers. xD

Look at samsung, they released GB a month or two/three if you count the leaks. That's like the second or third phone to get GB officially, aside from the nexus one and nexus s? Which are google phones so of course they'd get it first. Samsung doesn't handle the updates for a T&t, verizon, sprint or t-mo, they don't. So they've done their job, it's all up to the carriers to finish this up.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] bmar08:
thats only partially true..

the carriers do work with Samsung and Google to get out the updates but I work for Tmobile and its not an Over the Air Update on the Galaxy S phones. The updates are through a website that Samsung set up that you download it while synced to a pc and the updates so far have caused more bugs and headaches than they have been worth..

of course thats for peeps that wait for official updates, not for us who mod and use this site.

not saying by any means that its a horrible phone, just not my choice personally thats all...

everyone has thier own opinions and i have just always had great luck with HTC is all...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] lolkoz:
I would go for EVO 3D. Not only because it is better in everything compared to the Sensation and all that 3D bull****, but mostly because it looks fabulous. Best looking HTC ever in my opinion.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] webjunky:
i would go for the Evo 3D aswell ,

apparently is will come to Europe , when it does , i'll be first in line to get 1 :D
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] raziel123:
Also if you play games a Lot, then the Sensation is a better bet, the Adreno 220 is faster than the rest of the GPU's found in phones ...

regards.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Kailkti:
Lawl where did you get that info bout the adreno 220 being faster?

The benchmarks of the 1.5ghz model? Mind you it's running a dual core 1.5 ghz, meaning two 1.5 ghz compared to a 1ghz/1.2ghz dual core. So what does that say?

Point being it was the 1.5 ghz model, not the 1.2ghz own, so we can't say which is better right now. Plus we have to remember the sgs 2 caps it's frame rate.

Anyways, as far as GPU's are concerned however, I'm pretty sure the power vr sgx543 is the best right now. Sad samsung didn't make that move.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] robertsmith1873:
Thanks chaps for your points, all valid.

SGS2 does look to have the hardware and i know i will up set myfellow Scot, but I LIKE SENCE...when i look at the screen it tells me what i need to know. then its back into the pocket..

I will now goto Tmob on 16th and haggle a free phone with more calls and data or threaten to leave..........wish me luck.

Thanks again.
[Atrix 4G General] kane4fire:
To Motorola and for the rest of us,

I bought this phone originally because I read that the bootloader would be unlocked and I assumed fairly soon after. I, like most people, do not like motoblur. It is a slow, bloated, unfriendly interface that was forced upon me. Sadly, it is still forced upon me. So now that I thought I'd hold out and thought we'd get the keys, we didn't and it's too late to return this phone that had great promise.

What do I do now since I was dupped? I take away potential customers from Motorola. I've already convinced 3 of my friends not to get any of your phones and also a XOOM and who knows how many people they will tell my recommendations to?

You guys waste so much money on marketing and creating an image. This thing was suppose to blur the lines between computer and phone and you yourself are the ones who crippled that from being possible. Do you know what happens when you go to a sales agent at AT&T? They don't recommend the Atrix; a power user/person with knowledge of smartphones denies the customer from even considering it an option. Why would they do that? Because they know they can sell another phone that THEY like (easier to sell when you like it yourself) and they know the user won't come back and return against them, since they are paid commission.

Also, consider the demographic that probably bought this phone or considered it. They more than likely aren't the people who click 'Allow' when a website asks if it can install malware - those people bought iPhone's. The dual core CPU and webtop experience attracted the nerdier group - the power users and dev's - the exact people who don't want the limitations you put.

I know my post probably won't get heard by anyone important at moto but I know some of us owners/users/sympathizers will read this. The only thing I can hope is that we use the great tool we have and blog/tweet/status update/tell others. They won't listen to us, but they will listen to money. Take it away from them and they will listen.

FRIENDS DON'T LET FRIENDS BUY MOTO! <---My facebook status and you should make it yours too!
[Atrix 4G General] CaelanT:
See above for my response to this!
[Atrix 4G General] roharia:
*****ing about it will not accomplish anything and a large company such as Motorola wont be hurt by a few sales and honestly if I were your Facebook friend I would still buy this gadget, you know why? Its a great phone and there is still a chance that its bootloader will be unlocked eventually...just be patient.
[Atrix 4G General] kane4fire:
Actually, motorola explicitly stated they were going to unlock the bootloader from near the beginning - which was the reason I bought the phone. They used it as a selling point and they haven't addressed it at all...probably hoping it would be forgotten. Same thing with it being called a 4G phone, but it couldn't even attain 3G speeds up. They sold people on the idea that it would have the ability to access the fastest network speeds and people knew it didn't but still bought it. People *****ed, and now everyone (including your ungratefulness), got what they were told they were paying for.

A sales person may have not kept you, but it does happen more than in your case. As a matter of fact it happens fairly regularly. Usually a sales rep will lean towards one phone instead of another simply due to personal preference.

It is a great phone and great hardware without the ability to use it. This is a developers forum. If you don't want the ability to develop on this phone completely, why are you here? So you can seem all high and mighty? Maybe you're the one in the wrong forum or maybe you should just have a couple pitchers at a pub?

As far as a few sales not hurting it, that's not true at all. These phones aren't exactly flying off the shelves. As a matter of fact, this phone has a higher return rate than almost other smartphones. A returned phone costs much more overall than just not making a sale in the first place. The reason why they are going to do that is only because enough people are pissed about it that their current sales are hurting. They didn't spend money hiring people and R&D to create a locked bootloader if they didn't originally plan on keeping it locked for good.

You guys can tell people not to say anything or *****, but at the end of the day, you'll be the ones reaping the benefits of the people who did.
