Look, if you can't keep track of time, that's your problem. I can well keep track of time and have fixed my phone to suite my needs, and able to get 3 hours of emulator play; if you device fails to perform to that task, not my problem. I'm here to provide information and share my stats, as everyone else he does. If you feel the need to post ignorant degraded posts because you may not believe something, then you sir are ignorant. I won't be putting anymore effort into this, so deuces.
[EVO 4G General] KINGOFNOOBS:
How good a single person's battery life is irrelevant. Consistent results among the majority of users is what is needed. The Droid Charge needs to come to Sprint so we can get a day of heavy use easily.
[EVO 4G General] aimbdd:
Ehh.. not that impressive... evo 3d has a bigger battery.
[EVO 4G General] BonkyMoon:
Well I can definitely tell you're not trying to bash, you literally are doing it. Just cause you're not trying hard (or at all) to do it doesn't mean that you aren't doing it.

I will not have bickering over battery lifes or outrages claims on this topic..

It is unneeded,
[EVO 4G General] MrReptar:
It's really fascinating to me how some people can get over 24 hours of battery life

on the Evo. I don't think I have bad battery life while my phone lasts about 7 hours, but that's at pretty moderate use. Maybe if I just left my phone alone I can get over 24 hours, but what would be the point of that? Just my thought, everyone uses their phone differently so everyone is going to have different battery life.

And its true that the EVO 3D has a bigger battery, but it also has dual core processor and 3D among other things, so I don't think the results will differ much.
[EVO 4G General] dafunk60:
Poor signal strength = short battery life.

I believe the newer processor & graphics chipset use less power than those in the Evo 4G so there could be a decent gain in up time.

It seems that many people talking about battery life forget about the effects signal strength, especially if you have several services syncing data in the background.

Personally I find signal strength to be the largest variable in my battery life, not just on the Supersonic but on a Rhodium and a Kaiser as well. I have a horrible signal at my home (no carrier has a decent signal at my home) and with light usage my battery will be dead in 6-8 hours. When I am at work where I get an excellent signal I can spend 2-3 hours on the phone, and receive and review dozens of email and only use about 15% of my battery.

The moral of the story is that the same phone on the same rom with the same settings and usage can perform drastically different in different areas.
[EVO 4G General] jptesar:
Signal is paramount. My signal at home was horrible and it took it's toll on the battery. I finnaly got one of Sprint's Airave and problem solved.

I did a thread on this before but on the wrong section here are one of the response I got:

Did that, and got a new G2 replacement with the OTA Update preinstall and I still get the same low scores that I would normally score 300+ higher before the update, I get 1700 @ 1ghz o/c while I would get around 1600-1700 before the update @ 800mhz stock and around 1900s @ 1ghz o/c :s, could it be the tethering and wifi calling capabilities added on the OTA update that slowed the phone down?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsteven77x:
There is differing opinions on this, but the popular consensus is that quadrant scores are worthless. They do not reflect real world use at all. There really just good for circle jerking with your friends and saying "Oh my phone is better, no MINE!" ;). I have actually used roms that got a THOUSAND less in quadrant, yet felt faster and worked better in real world use. So my advice would be dont rely on quadrant so heavily to decide what is the best rom :) I made that mistake myself.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidfeen809:
Well I'm on stock, not using any roms

And than again I don't rely much on quadrant but, the phone is definately slower, it use to be faster before the update. I strongly believe is the update that slowed the phone down, many people have also notice this.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidfeen809:
Did it and the phone did scores higher than it did before I wipe the cache out, thnx, but I still got higher numbers before the update. I really do believe the update slowed down the phone because of the addition of wifi calling and tethering, if not than what did.

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sane1:
Noob question, what's the field utils app for? Just noticed it after the 3.1 update I got a few hours ago. Didn't notice it before. Looks like a system app, but what's it for? I searched but nothing came up.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sane1:
You get the app by booting up holding the volume up and down and power at the same time. At the dual-core screen. It says cold booting linux OEM fuse check. Once it boots you'll find the field utils in your app tray. Reboot normally and its gone.

Open the app and you have three options, program menu, field test screen and radio info.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] uptheironsrafi:
Hello,

For the past week, I was trying out the Cronos Ginger ROM for Milestone, and I quite liked the system fonts that it used. Is there any way to port those fonts back to CyanogenMod? Is there an app for that?

Thanks
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] skadude66:
Try using Font Changer.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] uptheironsrafi:
Well I did try it, but it didn't come loaded with any fonts. Also, I was looking for the Cronos fonts specifically. Is there any font package for that? Also how do I load fonts in Font changer in the first place?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] skadude66:
Best way to grab fonts would be to open up the Flashable zip of Cronos, then /system/fonts and you need to grab all of those I guess. Font Changer should recognize them as a "font package" and let you apply it then.

[Verizon Droid Charge] Homestar1217:
Hello all, I plan on buying the Charge in the near future. I've got a Vibrant with T-Mobile, and it's rooted, but I wasn't planning on rooting my Charge right away, so I was wondering what would be the best process for migrating my apps over.

Mainly I just want my Angry Birds data, because I've lost all that once before, and it's time consuming to do 3 episodes worth of levels all over again! I realize this has probably been answered elsewhere, but I did a quick search as well as trying a couple apps on the market to no avail.

If there's a thread I missed somewhere a link would be much appreciated. Always looking forward to the good advice and general helpfulness of the people of XDA!
[Verizon Droid Charge] nick.koutrelakos:
You gotta root your Charge to migrate the app data over... the easy way. Since it doesn't take root access to write to the /data partition of your phone (at least I don't think it does..) you can always adb push the angry birds data folder from your Vibrant to your Charge but.. I'd root and just use Titanium Backup.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Homestar1217:
Well alright. I used SuperOneClick to root the vibrant, will that work with the Charge as well? Also, does the free version of Titanium work for both backup and restore, and is it just the app data, or will I have to pay the $5. Not against payingat all, just wondering.

How do you remove your Facebook contacts from your phonebook?

[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] borealis17:
Hit Contacts, and go to Display Options. I'd say either check "Only contacts with phones" or go down and disable the facebook contacts all together.

Alternatively you can hit the menu button the facebook app, and change the Sync setting to "Remove Facebook data".

Yes I know this is farty - The only way to shuffle a list of songs seems to be by selecting >music>songs>shuffle all. This is good but I choose an artist or a genre then list the songs there is no shuffle option. Like I said its farty.
[HD7 General] TheRaggyGandalf:
Play anything you want > in the "playing" screen press your album cover > hit the shuffle icon (right)

Edit: to clarify you have to create your playlist first (by clicking the icon left of a genre etc) and when the music starts playing you can enable shuffle as described above

There are a couple of things needed for this to work. The hardware of the phone needs to support acting as an usb host and driver module in the kernel needs to support that hardware mode as well. I was looking around for this too a while back, and I think I remember finding, that the kernel module had no support for the host mode, but I am not sure I am right. At the very least I think it will require a custom kernel, with some modules built, that I do not believe are in any of the custom ones here.

Kind regards

[LG Optimus 2x] ll_l_x_l_ll:
So yeah. title says it all. i got my hands on O2X and i kept it. but i also found a used SGS2 and i decided to keep it. try them both. and sell the one that i dont like. and i decided to sell the SGS2 . which i did and made a 100$ profit. but to that later.

the build quality :

without a question. the O2X had a much solid feel in your hand. heavier. felt like an expensive phone. the SGS2 is very light,. all platicy it feels like a toy not an expensive phone

Screen :

i loved them both. the super amoled plus is stunning. a joy to watch movies in it. the 4.3 is abit big for my taste. so it made the phone bigger. on the other hand i love the IPS display on the O2X. kinda remind me of the iphone 4 one. which is a good thing. both screens had good response. both screens had problems. banding/ grid pattern on low brightnesss with dark gray backfround on SGS2 and light leakege on top of the screen from both sides on my O2X.

Software/ Hardware :

this was the deal breaker for me. the SGS2 is super smooth. but thats as far as it goes. 60% of the good high end games cant be played on SGS2. and they need a software update. the Mali 400/ Oxynos whatever its called doesnt support the same format structure and texture all the other phones do " Nexus S, Galaxy S, Adrinao 205 whatever " so i found my self most of the new Gameloft games doesnt work at all.

they need a software update. and whatever this happens or not, its up to developers. hell even games like run ninja doesnt run very smooth.

Emulators. the N64, the PSX emulators. all run better on Tegra 2. not much of difference. but you can see the difference easly.

the GPU " as of now " lacks alot in the SGS2.

plus. i really love what Nvidia is doing with Tegra zone games. to get those awesome looking games is something very nice. with the SGS2, i found my self playing SGS1 games. that if they were able to run in the first place.

please note. i am not saying the SGS 2 is bad device. i am saying that as of now, the Tegra 2 devices are better " read : Atrix/ O2X "

and i think i will skip the SGS2 till they release the Tegra 2 SGS2. then i will consider switching.

but if you are a gamer like me, dont even think of doing it.
[LG Optimus 2x] KingKuba13:
Not possible, the SGS2 is the best phone in the world and touched by the hand of God.

im sure my viewpoint would be the same as the OP if my O2X actually worked. The phone was nice but I cant be proud of a phone that randomly decides when it wants to reboot or freeze. I really had high hopes for the O2X and may consider switching back if LG gets off its butt and addresses/fixes the problems.

For the money that either phone costs they should just work.

i have lg2x for about 2-3 weeks and mine never rebooted even once!!!maybe you are unlucky about reboots..i had iphone 4 and i had all the times reboot..maybe 15-20 reboots per day!now i dont have even one reboot with lg2x!my opinion is to give to the repair service of LG and tell them to replace it with a new one!

as for the sgs2 i had it for 2 days and hmmm...lg2x gaming and web browsing is faster than sgs2...!!that is enough for me and guess what??

LG2X has still 2.2.2 stock rom ;) and 1 ghz

SGS2 has 2.3.3 1.2ghz

wait for the official gingerbread for lg2x and see the smoothness and speed!

nuff said..!:D:D
[LG Optimus 2x] smokie700:
thing is Im in afghanistan and cant afford to take another chance that LG will repaor the phone. Im sure you have seen the threads of the wide spread issues with the O2X. I think maybe you are the lucky one to have a phone with no reboots/freezes as it seems the majority have problems with the O2X.

I did like the phone a lot but because of my location and the how long the shipping time is from the US to the military bases here. I just cant take a gamble. In my mind a 600.00 phone should work the first time.
