[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bloomer2011:
I've discovered this to be a reproducible (but not solvable) problem. This might be an Android prob, as there are one or two other short threads on this site for other phones. For me it looks like the common thread is an incoming call while using an app. But fixing it... who knows?

I have been able to reproduce it three times:

1. after a week using my Arc, a new clock widget stopped updating except when foregrounded, and not until the next minute ticked over. I also noticed a weather widget wouldn't update reliably.

2. after two months without a solution, i completely reset the phone. All good. While playing a game, I received a call. Afterwards, the widgets wouldn't refresh except as above.

I deleted an unrelated widget because I didn't need it, and (perhaps coincidentally) the other widgets started refreshing properly.

3. a week later, I received a call while using the calendar app. Widgets no longer refresh, except as above. I haven't been able to find a fix this time. Tested widgets like the stock digital clock show the same problem.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smartmale2006:
If u hav installed beautiful widgets then..

Well after lots of trial and error.. the only solution i found is..

1. uninstall beautiful widgets animation

2. clear data beautiful widgets from settings - apps - beautiful widgets

3. uninstall beautiful widgets..

Living without beautiful widgets is better than facing that refresh problem.. :D:D

Fix launcher lag

This method worked on my SE Arc S (.42). You need to have root access.

1) Open the following file: /system/build.prop

2) Add this to the end of the file and save it: ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1

3) Reboot.

Hope it helps.

[HTC Sensation] krico:
Could someone please tell me if there are two different versions of HTC Sensation. Are there 3G and a 4G versions available? The one I have ordered does not even mention anything about 4G. Thanks
[HTC Sensation] xnifex:
they're all the same phone. It's not really 4G, just the US mobile providers using the term to try to 1-up their competition. Therefore only the tmous version will be Sensation 4G.

All the phones should be capable of 14Mbps HSPA+ tho.
[HTC Sensation] 10332007:
Xnifex is right, 4G is the rage here in the states so everyone is trying to talk it up to entice buyers. HSPA+ is all we have on T-Mobile and the other 4G networks are small so eh.

I believe that I read somewhere that the Euro version IS capable of the same theoretical network speeds, it is just not advertised as 4G.
[HTC Sensation] PartyMango:
I just studied the specifications and, yes: Both versions are capable of the same speeds. 4G is just a marketing term T-Mobile (and other carriers) like to use.

In Europe (at least where I live), carriers don't usually advertise as being "4G" capable, even if they have started running LTE networks. I've seen advertisements for "HSPA+ speeds", LTE directly as well as "Air to Fiber" to highlight the carriers backend.

I don't think there are GSM/UMTS/LTE smartphones on the market right now, it is still a "future technology" for some time to come.
[HTC Sensation] Mexvizu:
Correct yet again
[HTC Sensation] Alpha Class:
its all 3.5g

get a n8 and you'll see it pull down the same speeds as any of tmobs "4g" phone

This is also the reason I want to change my notification icons from having the 4G to saying H+
[Verizon Droid Charge] 2k10MBC300SPT:
I know there's probably a million threads out like this but haven't searched much. I am about to Exchange my BOLT for Charge and Am wandering if I am making a mistake. I love the sense UI but I believe LPP can get me those widgets am looking for like Gmail, text, Twitter. I want a much better battery life and from what I've read, CHARGE has the BOLT beat on that. The other specs seem to be very similar but it looks like devs are not really Modding for the CHARGE. Bootloader is locked for CHARGE and not for TB. My phone will ship out on Monday and arriving on WED. Please help put a possible stop to the shipping of the CHARGE if the majority feels that am better off with BOLT. Please don't give the "It's personal preference" line. I've already explained what I cared for. Thanks in advance for ALL input
[Verizon Droid Charge] papi92:
There's not bootloader on the charge hahah its not there its non existant
[Verizon Droid Charge] GuestK00231:
I chose the charge. I came from the thunderbolt and hated it. It didn't even last a week, and I only made it last that long, as it took so long to root (i did it manually...though I hear there is one click now).

The above poster is correct. The bootloader is unlocked completely. Rooting is overly simplistic, and straight up easy.

I personally feel the charge is a better made product. If you are going for LTE then this is the best 4g phone in verizon's lineup right now.

I felt like the bolt was slapped together and not made or thought out very well (like you can't charge the phone with the kickstand in widescreen) I can go on and on about what I found with the bolt.

Why is this in development?

Im new to android, what is the best setting for setcpu for balancing performance and battery life. Thanks in advance
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Root:
What Rom/kernel are you on? Voltage Control might be the better option.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] otee670:
On leaky gingerbread eeo3, don't know what kernel but kernel version is 2.6.35.7, firmware is 2.3.3...
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
The lower the maximum speed you can tolerate will give you the max battery life. A lot of people keep 800 Mhz as max for that reason.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blankrubber:
If you want a good mix between battery and performance, I recommend keeping your maximum clock at 1000Mhz (default) and lowering your minimum clock to 100Mhz (default should be 200Mhz) if your phone will allow it.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
Yeah, just make sure you have journaling on if you are going to try 100 Mhz. A lot of phones get the sleep of death from that. Mine is one of those. Then you will have to pull the battery and adjust your settings to 200 Mhz minimum on SetCPU.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkierawr:
Or....You could not use 100mhz at all!

It uses the same voltage as 200mhz. And by increasing the amount frequencies scaled makes the phone slower.

800mhz max, 200mhz min. 800mhz is volted -75 over 1ghz. Which should increase battery life.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] otee670:
Awsome stuff guys. Thanks for all the great info and to all that reply... Thanks again

Sent From My Epic 4G
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blankrubber:
I'd quote him but I'm on my phone. Rodderik has stated that all the frequencies use the same internal voltage except for 100mhz, which uses a slightly less internal voltage. What we're adjusting and seeing read in voltage control is the arm voltage, or the processor voltage at each frequencies. I'm not sure the exact difference, but there is a slight drop in voltage at 100mhz compared to the other frequencies? A battery saving difference? Who knows

So your's is behaving the same way? The app starts but no search/browse title results?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] tackyjan:
guess what?!?! i was playing around with the settings and I turned off "Unknown sources" and I also turned off developer mode settings ("USB debugging", "Stay Awake", and "Allow Mock Locations".)

When I changed those setting appbrain appmarket now works! One strange thing, however. the search/browse results dont take up the whole screen then only take up like 1/3 as if it was on a phone not a tablet.

Downgrade appbrain to 5.6 (google it), its a known problem with appbrain 6.0.2.

Is this still a problem? AppBrain 6.0.2 should work fine on all devices now.

That's just their weird new tablet interface. Threw me for a loop when they first introduced it, too. When you select something in the left-hand panel, it will appear in the right-hand panel.

btw it works fine for me on 3.1 (and was fine previously, too) without needing to touch any of those settings.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toe451:
this is what i did. placed xpad.ko in /system/lib/modules/2.6.32.41-cyanogenmod/ , then in terminal chmod 644 /system/lib/modules/2.6.32.41-cyanogenmod/xpad.ko , terminal replys chmod 644 /system/lib/modules/2.6.32.41-cyanogenmod/xpad.ko: Read-only file system ... then in terminal insmod /system/lib/modules/2.6.32.41-cyanogenmod/xpad.ko , reply from terminal, insmod: init_module '/system/lib/modules/2.6.32,41-cyanogenmod/xpad.ko' failed (no such file or directory) ....i followed pershots directions from droid basement. i had no problems installing the cifs module, that works fine.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rajeevvp:
Save yourself a lot of trouble:

Don't copy the xpad.ko file (or any other kernel module file for that matter) into /system--just leave it on the SD card.

You can also skip the chmod command. Since the insmod command needs to be run as superuser, permissions for the kernel module files don't matter.

All you have to do is specify the correct path to the .ko file when giving the insmod command which you must run as root--loading modules into a running kernel is a privileged operation, and normal users cannot do it.

Assuming your xpad.ko file is in /mnt/sdcard/tmp/, do:

$ su [I]# become superuser[/I]
# insmod /mnt/sdcard/tmp/xpad.ko
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toe451:
thank you for your help... tried doing it like you wrote , but it keeps telling me no such file or directory . i don't get it , why does it work for the cifs module and not the xpad module ?? if i can set up the cifs correctly, i should be able to do the xpad , it's all the same commands you just add in the module ko. , right? thanks for your time.. tired of messing with trying to get a game pad to work. i give up on this . at least i got the cifs to work..... thanks
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rajeevvp:
The xpad.ko module needs another module to be loaded first, before it can be loaded. Otherwise you get this error:

$ su
# insmod /mnt/sdcard/tmp/xpad.ko
insmod: can't insert 'xpad.ko': unknown symbol in module or invalid parameter

I ran modinfo (on a Linux machine) on the xpad.ko file and it told me that xpad.ko depends on a ff-memless module. So load that module first (this module is also available in lib-2632.41_gb.tar.gz):

$ su
# insmod /mnt/sdcard/tmp/ff-memless.ko
# insmod /mnt/sdcard/tmp/xpad.ko

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sixvoltsystem:
Forgive my ignorance but in Pershoot's kernel would that xpad.ko file have to be compiled for the Android flavor you have? For instance on his blog he has both the Froyo and GB kernels, but I have seen his latest kernel on a few Honeycomb roms. Just wondering because I've tried to load the xpad.ko file in terminal with admin rights on a few and can't get them to work. Again, forgive my ignorance I'm trying to learn. Feel free to smack me about.

Things to know

1) This comes from my pickings of different Themes & .pngs I've found. I haven't created any of the artwork. As stated above, I've been doing this for my phone. If you find a better icon, post a link and if I like it better, I'll add it.

2) I am not responsible if this breaks your phone. Make a backup first.

3) If you use LauncherPro Notifications & Preferences under the main menu are still grey (See 4th pic below) because these are controlled by LauncherPro, and if I edit that .apk LauncherPro Plus doesn't work <_<

4) The eye background is not included, but is attached to this post.

5) I don't recommend trying to use Metamorph with this. So far I haven't got it to work fully for some reason, but it works perfectly well with ZipThemer. Plus this themes files that will cause a FC loop with Metamorph.

6) If you want to use the clear Lockscreen that is in the last photo you must go to CM settings and select the "Rotary" style, I did this on purpose b/c some people would rather use the "Rotary Revamped" style.

What currently has changes

Framework-res.apk............. Vending.apk (Market) (Taking this out in the next update)
