i have two gmail accounts. how does one set up two gmails accounts on their xoom??
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SPIDERTECH:
Go into your settings-->Accounts and Sync-->Add Account (upper right corner)

Select Google Account and add your other gmail account there. If you only want to sync the gmail uncheck each box to sync except gmail. When you open gmail, in the upper left corner where it shows your email address, click on it and it will show the others that you have added.

I have multiple accounts but I forward all of their mail to a master account and I just sync that one.

thanks spidertech. i missed that. im glad we can add more than one gmail account.

Hi!

I have problem with the sound of my HTC TYTN II. When I play music with some kind of prayer everything is ok. But when I receive a call the sound of my ringtone is 50 lower and right before the other side end the call the sound goes to full 100%. I do not understand where is the problem.

I have flashed the device with TPC Elite version 11 with MANILA.

I hope you can help me.

Thanks

what radio version are you using now ?? try to upgrade radio
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] nikolay100:
Hi!

Thank for the help. I did not flash ant Radio, because I did not know that I should. I found the recommended radio for this ROM, but now my question is - should I HARD Reset my phone again and then flash the ROM again and the Radio?

Or I could flash the Radio right now with all my other applications installed?

Thanks again!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Hakim Rahman:
I think you need to do is make sure the device into bootloader mode (by Camera Hold Power button together and reset with stylus ) and then flash the radio rom that you have

for more detail shoul you read the Stickies
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] needless:
Changing radios did not worked for me. I just installed "Montecristoff Tripp Audio". The volume adjustment can then be changed later on depending on how you want to hear your music sounds.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kushtion:
Hey Guys/Gals,

So my screen won't turn on but fortunately, Samsung is fixing it for free! Thats pretty much the only good news that I have.

For reasons that I'd rather not share, there were contacts added to my phone's internal HD (this is an assumption), rather than adding their info to Google/Gmail. If you can recall, when adding a new phone, you are prompted with 2 choices: Phone or Google. On many occasions, I selected the "phone" option.

To my dismay (noob fail), I didn't root my phone after the Froyo update. Hence, I cant access : data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/databases/contacts.db <--- where i believe the contacts are stored.

I can't transfer my contacts from one phone to another (via the hub and 2 wires) b/c the appropriate settings can not be set from my phone, due to the powerless screen.

I have exhausted all options that I could think of and am now finally turning to XDA for help. Can anyone offer some help please? I will be greatly appreciated.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
That's probably what they needed to set. I remember the girl at the Sprint booth didn't have to set anything to suck the contacts off my Palm Pre but I guess it is different for Epic contact sucking.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Grillrd:
So after 2 hours and 3 minutes...my battery is at 25% ...since starting to write this message it has dropped 3%. The display is taking up 80% of use. Screen brightness is about a centimeter from the far left side. Screen has been on about 90% of the time...however...after only 2 hours and now at 23%...I'm a little concerned. Any suggestions?
[Verizon Droid Charge] ITGuy11:
Change your screen timeout to 30 seconds...
[Verizon Droid Charge] Grillrd:
I like to have my screen on while at work. It would be easy to just turn it off :) ...I'm hoping for another workaround. I thought these screens were supposed to pull less power.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Poloasis:
I does pull less power but having it on all the time while at work will still drain your battery pretty quickly and why want you have this on all the time?
[Verizon Droid Charge] Grillrd:
It was more of a test to see how long it lasts with the screen on. I am a little concerned though because lets say I'm sitting in an airport or on a plane watching a movie(I travel for business). My old Droid X could get me through that. But I'm thinking that it wouldn't be an option if my battery is dieing after 2 1/2 hours with the screen on.

Coming from the droid x, kernels weren't an option so I don't know much about them. Would an enhanced kernel be able to help with this drain or am I SOL?
[Verizon Droid Charge] ghettomuffin:
I'm having battery issues as well and hoping someone can help. I heard people are getting great battery life with this device, but so far mine is about the same as the thunderbolt was. My charge says its mostly the display taking up the battery life, but I've done all I can to help this. My screen time out is at 15 seconds and my brightness is at about 20%. I am running ADW EX but I wouldn't think that would cause this. Anyone have any other ideas?
[Verizon Droid Charge] lpsquall:
I am on the same boat as you. I thought rooting my phone and freezing apps would help with my battery but it seems to be about the same.

[Verizon Droid Charge] Grillrd:
lol...yeah. I had an extended battery for my Droid X...but it didn't triple the size of my phone haha
[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
The screen does use less power, but a significant amount of the power savings comes from displaying black, as black uses no power on the display, where it does for LCD displays. For me, the Display is usually responsible for 65-80% of the power drain, so your usage seems somewhat normal. Custom kernels can help with drain some, but what can be tweaked with a kernel won't help with the display draining the battery.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Grillrd:
Thank you for the explanation. Looks like I'll be using dark wallpapers.
[Verizon Droid Charge] hokulus:
Potential Solutions?

So besides reducing screen timeout to minimum, turning off background data, and cutting off literally every single connection (wifi, BT, 3g/4g, gps, everything) except 1x for calls and texts, removing bloat, are there ANY other measures one could take to enhance the stock battery life? I find myself talking on the phone for roughly 1hr per day but I do send nearly 500 text messages daily thus my screen is on a good portion of the time. I have to charge this phone twice per day at 2.5hrs per charge, it sits near an outlet for 5 hours a day heh... In fact even though I live in a 4g area I can't really use that feature because it beast's the battery down like a ravenous monster even with ALL other services disabled, not making calls, just texting and syncing email.

Task killers:

To me the task killing programs (ATK, ATM, etc) do actually kill background tasks and sometimes even services depending on your particular settings but since they just restart automatically does it not use MORE cpu time to re-run the damn things than just leaving them in the first place?

Launchers:

I have found no significant difference whatsoever between battery life under TouchWiz and LauncherPro. If anything its worse with LP because of the nifty graphical effects.

Kernels:

I'm pretty sure I read somewhere people were experiencing better life with the v4 voodoo kernel however I've noticed no difference at all there either with regard to battery life.

Running the phone with no services and charging it twice daily seems fairly extreme, eh? The extended battery is tempting, but one thing that attracted me to this device was its slim design. I don't care if its a little thicker and all but that ext battery is a freaking monster! Forget having a case with it too, at least for now.

Thoughts, suggestions?

[Verizon Droid Charge] rmanaka:
500 text/day? Wow, you must be under 20 with thumbs/pointing fingers of steel! If your average text message takes 30 seconds, your screen is on and the screen/keyscan interrupts are running full bore about 4.5 hours a day just texting...when do you have time for Angry Birds?

Maybe a thin white text on black background for your screen theme? Just kidding (sort of), but I'm amazed at the talk/text times; gettin old, I guess!:rolleyes:
[Verizon Droid Charge] rmanaka:
Seems like this explains while some report great battery and others terrible times...depends on what somebody considers "normal" to "light" usage and while some consider "texting" light usage if the screen is on black text on white background the whole day, there goes the battery stats. Same with screen on sitting doing nothing (maybe displaying time)...

Should "Battery Life" be normalized or adjusted something similar to "Time Between Charges" divided by ("Time Screen Display is On" times "percent White pixel counts")? Are there any battery stats / device stats / display stats that can help figuring out a "Battery Life Index"?

Sorry for the random thoughts....
[Verizon Droid Charge] hokulus:
Actually I've been keeping track and the screen is on 3-4 hours per day, plus the haptic feedback, interrupts, etc. Doesn't take me anywhere near 30s to send a text message, few seconds TOPS for most of them and I never said it was light usage haha. Just asked if anyone knows of other measures I did not list which I may employ to extend it more.

hok
[Verizon Droid Charge] warriorprophet:
The vooodoo kernel will help a bit as it uses a much more optimized file system so your phone will spend less time cache thrashing and reading/writing large downloads.

Essentially though it is down to how long your screen is on and how many accounts you have syncing in the background, also if you don't need full 1ghz for texting/calling smoothly then use setcpu with an ondemand or interactive type scheduler and set the max to like 700-800mhz...
[Verizon Droid Charge] angry english:
This....

BUT i will say that the battery life on this phone takes a great big dump on the TB`s battery, now thats a bad battery life, i would consider myslef a heavy user i make around and receive around 100 calls a day, around 100 emails and around 75-125 texts per 8 hour working day

i can get through my day putting my charge on charge ONCE for around 30 mins, my thunderbolt had to be plugged in most times, 2-3 hours max for total battery death ( 3 hours is extreme generous, was more like 2 hours ), i carried 3 batteries with my thunderbolt.

The charge for me is great, on a par with my old galaxy S for battery life, if only they coukd give me iPhone battery life, for as much as people dont like the iPhone, it sure does sip the juice

Hi guys,

Today I installed that ****ed up software "Root Uninstaller".

I downloaded that from Market Place. It was for Freezing and removing Root applications.

I tried to freeze the Gtalk application but it was like busy and my phone hanged. After that I rebooted my phone and uninstalled "root uninstaller".

Now when I start Gtalk I get this error

now its happening frequent. sometimes when I am opening other google apps, I get the same error.

Can someone tell me how to fix this Error????
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Akath19:
If I had a penny everytime someone messed up with google apps....:mad:

If you have a backup, restore said backup, if you don't you'll have to reflash your ROM, and I'm only gonna say this once:

NEVER, EVER, EVER, FREEZE/UNINSTALL GOOGLE APPS (don't even look at them)

Google apps are necessary if you want your phone in a working condition, so don't try to freeze them or remove them because your phone will plainly stop working.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] jjdoctor:
i have a backup but even after reinstalling Gtalk and all other google applications, I am getting this error. Hope Reflashing sorts it out..

[Off-topic] panchopunk:
I always hear that the key to stay in shape and look good is diet. Eating healthy and in moderation makes you look good and feel great. So, once you start working out, it isn't so hard. You really need to have a balanced diet and include a lot of fruits and vegetables. I know that is old fashioned, but I honestly believe that your workout will go really well.

As for my workout, I tend to alternate between weight lighting and cardio. I try to go at least 5 times a week, but sometimes girlfriends can take up some of your time. :)
[Off-topic] LordManhattan:
I jog six/seven days a week. That does the trick.
[Off-topic] panchopunk:
How many miles total do you go on average in a given jog and what is your average mile time in minutes?

I probably need to focus more on running and less on weight lifting, but I don't want to lose the muscles I have! I want to do better than 3 miles in 30 minutes though. :(

I've gotten to where I don't have as much time to workout because I usually go workout right after work, but the girlfriend wants to do stuff. I really like doing stuff with her, but my workout routine is important. I hate going in the mornings, but it looks like it has come to that.
[Off-topic] PERSIMMONS:
Losing weight has always been bothersome for me. I gained 10lbs last summer when staying with my sister (her cooking was good as heck). As soon as I went back home, I lost all that 10lbs again, I lost an additional 2 the last week. I always go up and down but since I started running again, I've maintained it and lost a few.

I rarely do eat breakfast. Maybe a cup of chocolate milk but that's it. I eat lunch which is usually a chicken salad by dinner time, I'm at work and I eat whatever's there. I don't snack often either, when I do it's almonds or fruits.

It takes A LOT of will power not to eat fast food, junk food, sweets, drinking anything else other than water. It took me a good month to adjust since I already didn't like sweets or anything all that much it got easier.

At the moment I'm about 5'1" and 121lbs. Trying to lose more before bikini season :P
[Off-topic] LordManhattan:
I'm careful not to go all chuck norris, so i keep it at 10km per day. I must also note that i don't jog the full 10km, but i walk fast to keep my pulse at a high level.

The other thing i do is jogging/speed walking/hiking in the forrest and stuff with lots of variation in the terrain. Then i'll have to use other muscles, the pulse goes furter up, and i burn more calories.

I've dropped from 90kg to 75kg since march, so it's working (for me). I eat about the same as before, but not nearly as much. Small portions is the key.

I remember last year when i started and i went all Chuck, it didn't go well. If you run for your life for 1 hour, you'll burn around 1200 calories. But nobody can run at their top speed for 1 hour. Maybe 10 minutes. Now you do the math, how many calories have you burned in those 10 minutes? Not much. Are you going to do this every day? No.

So, if you decide to walk/jog instead, you'll easily manage 1 hour. That's about 400-500 calories burned. Can you do this 5 times a week? Easily! Now take the 500 calories and multiply it with 5 (days). That's 2500 calories GONE. A grown man eats around 2500 calories a day. That means that a whole day of food is burned in a week. Now, imagine a year.

And well, this is the longest post i've ever written on my phone, lol!
[Off-topic] knowledge561:
I've been struggling with weight loss too. 2 years ago I was around 290 and got down to 226 in about 4 months of hardcore cardio and weight lifting.
