[XPERIA X8 General] Graveir:
As for battery life, I've noticed no real difference, no matter the version.

As for performance... it's definitely visible in benchmarks, a bit less in gaming :)
[XPERIA X8 General] bogdan_mihai554:
I did see an improvement in HD games, Verry little or no Lag at all :)
[XPERIA X8 General] Flasher8:
agreed too that the battery life just same as before >.<

if i did not use overclocking,does the battery life is better ?
[XPERIA X8 General] guelas:
i see no difference in battery life in either ways.
[XPERIA X8 General] biscoitu:
I´ve just saw difference while changing use of features like wi-fi, 3G and GPS, Overclock to me doesn´t made any difference on battery life. About UnderVolt I didn´t test any :D
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rom_:
Hi there,

A week ago I handed over my Nexus One to a relative so he could install gingerbread for me. He couldn't install it, and now I have an unlocked, semi-working phone (yeah, I'm not happy). I'll list the details below and hopefully someone can point me in the right direction of how to fix things myself.

- Recovery mode won't boot. The screen freezes on the multi-coloured cross.

- Wifi won't work. I get 'Error' everytime I try and activate it.

The build number is FRG83D, android v 2.2.1

Theres an applicaiton installed called 'superuser' with a pirate android icon

I've wiped everything several times, still doesn't work, and the superuser app is still there.

and PS, I'm using a mac.

I'm told theres some problem with the permissions and updates can't be installed. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Even just a hard reset to reinstall the base operating system would be great. Just want a working phone again! cheers

Do you have root access (open a terminal emulator app and type "su". If the $ prompt changes to #, then you have root access)?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Obsy:
What recovery do you use? AmonRa or Clockwork?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danger-rat:
Your best option (if you can get into the bootloader), would be to follow the unroot/restore guide in the wiki.

If you have root access, you could install ROM Manager, flash a recovery, and then use that to do whatever (probably install a fresh ROM).

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] squeakyl:
So I just checked my phone here at work and it's been off charger for 2 hours and is already down to 80% battery. The biggest battery drainer is "Cell Standby" since the phone has mostly just been sitting there.

does anyone know why cell standby is draining the battery? I though cell standby would just be maintaining a connection, but is it anything more than that?

Running lean kernal/Das BAMF 1.5
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Beastclaw:
If you select Cell standby it says its "Battery used by cell radio". I believe its the amount of time searching for a signal. Are you in a bad 4g area and your phone is constantly switching between 4g and 3g? It is odd for that to be the biggest battery drain but I guess if you have not had your screen on at all than its not too much of a surprise. Remember that under battery stats all of those percentages and information is based on how much battery you have used so far so it may say 30% of it has been used by the cell standby but that only means that 30% of the 20% battery life you have used.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Busphan:
If you click on cell standby you will see the answer to your battery drain. I bet the without a signal percentage will be up and the cause of the drain.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RandomlyWatts:
Its most likely a radio signal issue, as said. What kernel are you on?

Sent from my squirrel hole
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mbh87:
Kernel has nothing to do with the radio so that doesnt really matter.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheRealDex:
Mine is always number 2, right behind display. However, my time without signal is always 0%. I live in a good 4G area, but do work in an area where I bounce around a lot. In it's infancy I expect LTE to give people fits with this. I don't think it's that out of the ordinary.
[General Questions and Answers] FistFightN81:
I was reading on another forum that if my phone is rooted and runs a carrier update it will brick my phone. True? How can this be prevented?
[General Questions and Answers] makcrellon:
Hey if you're phone's already rooted and you simply install a carrier update I think it'll update the ROM and remove root access.

For example, if you have Froyo 2.2 and you have Root access, one you install an update with Gingerbread 2.3 you'll end up with your operator's official ROM and no way to run Visionary.

Did you root with a util such as Visionary? That just uses an exploit to get root access, however to take a leap forward you need to do Eng S Off and Radio S Off, following this you can then install some of the great custom ROMs which are out there.
[General Questions and Answers] FistFightN81:
Ya I used gingerbreak and using rom manager bricked my last phone. Not sure what Eng s off and radio s off means.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] cogency:
What ROM are you trying? One thing is to make sure you are using the correct partition size, this is known to cause a lot of problems. For instance, if you're trying a Sense rom, you're going to need a larger partition for the build.

Sorry for digging the old post, but I think my experience may help

I've met the same problem recently, but let's start from the beginning, and the situation below is sorted by time:

Camcorder white screen

taking pictures freeze

when charging, navigation app freeze easily

play jewel star more than 30 mins freeze

Turn on data connection, can not last than 1 mins, freeze

After freeze, pull out batt and back on, Magldr freeze on "Go GO GO" sometimes

When entering System, freeze

The problem is getting worse, and I almost give up my HD2. I've done every softeware solution , but can not get any good result. So, I put my HD2 to the ShenZhen(China) mobile repair technician, and got the Qualcomm 8250 CPU replaced. Then, re-install my energy rom, and all problems are gone, like a whole new phone, without any freeze.

My phone is TMOUS, and the production date is 2010/JUN. I've dropped my phone on the ground for once or twice, which the technician think the main reason for CPU broken. No matter what, my HD2 is rebirth now.

Did install a few apps from the market to check is superuser was working and it does, it ask for permission from the apps but not from superclick.

Also, i installed rom manager and downloaded clockwork and tried to flash it booting from rom manager into recovery and it gives me blue recovery once there, i tried to to flash "reinstall update.zip" and it fails everytime due to signatures...

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dani897:
what? no more referring to your sig? well i guess if he looks at my thread we both get the traffic and possible thanks.

att settings apk has no reference for unknown sources. but the database file that controls it is the same, the system needs to be mounted read write and you can pull a file and edit it in firefox with a mysqlite plugin then push it back to the phone and reboot. adb might need to be restarted, it might work after logging out and into the computer. it may also have trouble getting the permissions to change. the phone need to be in debugging mode for the scripts to use adb for /system access, also that means don't mount the sdcard before you start.

if it fails i can look for the file name and location and the thread that goes over editing it. it is as simple as changing a 0 to a 1 and saving.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snowake:
This is assuming that you updated to 2.2 through Kies. If so, the recovery is different than 2.1. So, either use odin to go back to stock 2.1, or scroll down to the thread for "3e recovery" in the development section.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hatchetly_wikked:
I have been dealing with this same issue for a week!! I now know that it's because I used Samsung Kies to do my 2.2 update and SuperOneClick to root. Some apps say that the phones not rooted and some have no problem getting SuperUser permission. This solved all my issues. I am either going to go back to 2.1 using Odin and retry or just remove the root and reroot. I will mess with it tomorrow. I just wanted to say thanks to everyone on this thread!!!!

Hi just wondering if anyone would know if we can upgrade our ram? i spoke to a online dell person they said no. but then im thinking did they say no cause it makes the phone void or cause its not possible. they told me the ram is sdram and i was thinking if you got 1gb or 2gb of sdram running at the same mhz would it work? also upgrading internal memory? give it a class 10 32gb upgrade?

Internal SD upgrade

I dont know if I would go as far as trying to upgrade the RAM, but I did replace the 2GB internal microsd chip with a 4GB class 10 microsdhc chip with no bumps and I can certainly tell the difference.... Boot up is several seconds faster and anything that requires accessing the card is much snappier....

Cant remember the link, but you can do a search on Google for changing the Streaks internal SD and it will take you to a thread over at modaco with a full take the phone apart route and a "cut a piece out" as I call it route.... I cut the small piece out (very carefully, so carefully I was able to glue it back in and can barely tell it was touched)
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mid_life_crisis:
Eventually I'm going to have to take mine apart to replace the glass. At that point I'm going to upgrade the memory. I saw that article too.

yh i thought upgrading internal sd with something big and speedy would def benefit for games and stuff to store on phone. but would def love to have a gb or 2 of ram. who needs duel core if you got decent ram for it. i personally think duel cores are only good for big multi tasking otherwise a single core with high ram would be faster or the same

Reflashing the PBL and SBL are the cause of 90% of the bricked samsung phones. How do we know this? At any given time, you can see several of the same old threads in any Samsung forum under General or Q&A. Take a look. http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=746

I sat on the phone with Samsung's technical support requesting information on the following items: UART, SBL, OM=0x9, OM pins, 619kohm, 150kohm, PIT, IBL, PBL... There was no documentation available in the Samsung KB. Nothing. I requested a callback from an engineer, and they said that they don't provide any support other then the guy on the other end of the phone who was looking up non-existant answers for me.

The Service Manuals for pretty much all of the Samsung phones are not accurate. Also, most of the samsung phones do not have service manuals released.

People are working to make Samsung phones better and how are they repaid? With a $500 brick. In order to compensate for AT&T's lack of support and the slow updates, we, the active development community REQUIRE documentation on the things which cause the phones to brick. Also for development purposes we require the resistor values which trigger the FSA90 We are not asking for source code, we are asking for information, however IBL/PBL/SBL source code would be nice.

So far during the research several phones have been bricked. I've personally analyzed several bricks on my own. They all exibit the same problems. The SBL will not boot. There is code in the IROM which allows booting from UART/USB OTG/MMC card. We need access to these functions. This could be achieved by jumpering the OM pins on the circuit board, however this is dangerous and would lead to even more bricking. We could trigger it somehow over UART or EXT-I2C bus, but it's still a hacking work-in-progress.

We've been building documentation in the following threads:

We need some engineering documentation, schematics, code, something.. The number of bricked phones from lack of information are staggering. Come on Samsung, Throw us a bone here. If you release the IROM/IBL/PBL/SBL code we can revise it and put an end to the continuous non-stop bricking. Since most of us on this site work open-source, you could simply take the code back and merge it into trunk.

Samsung- Developers are standing by.
