[LG Revolution] fsuchristy:
I've notice it, as well. I'm thinking of returning the phone. Battery life stinks, bloatware, poor voice recognition... Originally had the Samsung Charge until I realized there was no led light for notifications. Maybe I'll make the triad and return the Revolution for the Thunderbolt.

I've read there's a file that needs to be downloaded when you set the voice to text engine to Google. However, I'm not given an option to switch to Google in my settings. If anyone has a fix for the voice to text on LG, I'd also appreciate the help.
[LG Revolution] ClarkSt:
I did download the speech to text app and it works great... but no way to hook it into any particular app. I'll bet there's a config file somewhere...

But, if you root the phone, which is easy - I rooted my Charge and brought it back like that - then you can kill the bloat and up the battery life as a result. I honestly don't have a big issue with the battery like. It's not great, for sure, but it's no better or worse than my old Droid Incredible, really. An exrtra battery is a fact of life for most of these phones, I'd say. the TB is supposed to be worse.

Normally running Cyan stable and flash back to stock for PRL updates, but is there a faster rom for this or can I only get them if I use the Sprint release?

Trying to figure out if I need to flash the new Gingerbread rom or not.
[EVO 4G General] HipKat:
the slimmest and with the GB update is the stock rooted that xHausX has in the Dev section.

That will give you the best of both worlds! :D

[EVO 4G General] nabbed:
Can't they do prl flashable update zips now, even for cm7?
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
Never seen a "flashable update", I believe you can with CDMA workshop but its actually faster to just nandroid to Sense and then back to AOSP.
[EVO 4G General] issafram:
The dev supposedly working on it has some real life stuff going on, getting married I think. But yes, CM 7 will have that built in eventually.

How you ask?

When the Nexus S 4G came out, its entire code base went AOSP. So they have access to that code. Some merging here, custom menu code there, and voila!
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
Yeah, cannot wait. Truly AOSP will be king then.

Dev needs to drop the ***** and hook us up. ;)
[EVO 4G General] issafram:
Lol. If I posted anything like that, id get trolled like crazy.... "the devs do this for free...appreciate them....respect them....kiss their ass like we do...blah blah blah"

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1.ATRIX-in-PT:
Since two days I got the problem, that I can not activate Bluetooth anymore. On the settings "Wireless & network setting" I press the Bluetooth activation (Turn on Bluethooth). The status changes to "Turning on ... " for about 10 seconds, but doesn't turn on. Before was working fine, I do not remember to have something deleted.

It seems to me, as if Bluetooth is switched off (or disabled) by some application.

Would like to isolate the problem. Any ideas how I can find out.

- Log file

- command line

- etc
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dirtburgler:
Do you have anything frozen through titanium backup? Have you installed any apps that use Bluetooth? I had an issue with car home locking my Bluetooth up when I undocked it. Telling Car home to turnoff Bluetooth once disconnected fixed mine. If all else fails and you cant figure it out, I would try flashing back to 1.57 and then OTA update it back to 1.83. Last resort of course so you don't have to set your phone back up, titanium backup can make this process easier.

If nothing works then may be a hardware issue. Best of luck.

Just wait before you get into it, another person may have better advice!
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1.ATRIX-in-PT:
Hi. I installed a Bluetooth Transfer app. This was the reason, why I found out that Bluetooth wasn't working anymore. But I know for sure that Bluethooth was running fine, just a few days ago.

I really would like to find the reason, quite sure there is a software reason, and defenitly do not want to flash back.
[HTC Inspire 4G] volumnus:
They should have made the pliable rubber inner case out of that cheap gel material instead of black rubber. This case gathers more lint in an hour than my old boxwave case did in a lifetime for my tilt2.
[HTC Inspire 4G] paganfx4:
Had that problem with my otterbox defender intially. But the funny thing is after a few weeks of hand oils it went away and doesn't pick up as nearly as much lint now. Maybe you just needed to eat a nice greasy meal to prime it ;-)

hi guys,

a frind of mine gave me a HTC Tattoo on which he installes "Lost Phone" and the app locked his phone that i cant get rid of it (he didnt enter any password when he installed it, atleast thats what he told me)

I have a Galaxy and i dont know how to factory reset the tattoo, or flash a ROM

can someone explain to me how can i fix it fast?

i cant activate USB debuging and cand enter recovery( or dont know how)

thx
[Click General] furious anger:
If you have the stock rom 1.6

With the phone off, press and hold menu. Now press start until you leave "TATTOO", and turn loose WITHOUT drop menu.

Try whether you can uninstall the application.

or

Press and hold key "HOME" key + "BACK" and "POWER" button until you exit bootloader menu or to display that shows a menu that appears and disappears, then release only "POWER"

and give "clear storage"

but lose all.

lucky

thank you very much,

[Xoom General] kfernandes29:
I've had my Xoom overclocked to 1500 MHz for a couple of weeks and I haven't been satisfied with the performance at all, especially with browsing. I just decided to turn it down to 1200 in setCPU and I am in heaven right now. I'm guessing overlocking led to overheating which led to the processor choking? Whats more amazing is I'm getting better Quadrant scores now than when I had it at 1500MHz. Anyone have similar results? I guess its all about finding your devices sweet spot. Gonna try and fine tune it now lol

Running Tiamat ROM 3.1 on Tiamat 1.4.4 kernel.
[Xoom General] kcrudup:
Any chance this is just "freshly-rebooted" newness? The processor really doesn't heat up that much to go into thermal throttle (haven't seen that pop up in "dmesg" here) so I'm just as surprised as you are.
[Xoom General] kfernandes29:
Doubt it. I don't reboot much lol I did just flash the tiamat rom so I don't know if it made THAT much of a difference but its definitely alot better now. Also, I tried 1700mhz and it is a reboot within a minute ....is that heat related?
[Xoom General] kcrudup:
Well, that's what I mean- after a reboot (and after the dalvik cache, etc. has settled down) most systems feel "fresher" than one that's been up for any long while (even Android).

So maybe what you were feeling was the benefit of a fresh reboot?

It might have; I've gotten busy and haven't been talking much to BRD but every now and then I'll send him a note of what I've seen with my own custom stuff, and lately I've found that turning the Autogroup Scheduler off actually improves the usability of the Xoom quite a bit. Maybe he did that in the latest Tiamat?

Nah, it's just that all our chips are speced to 1GHz; some can of course go higher (I can run at 1504MHz all day long) but once you go over the limits for a particular piece of silicon, you'll get register/instruction/memory errors that can cause exceptions, kernel panic()s (the Linux equivalent of the BSOD) or reboots. Your Tegra2 just isn't stable at 1700.
[Xoom General] kfernandes29:
Yea, 1500 MHz is pretty stable.....no reboots at all. Maybe its just a fresh ROM installation or reboot like you stated.

Thanks a lot,

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SyRenity:
1) You can check-out git code directly to Eclipse, provided you have required plug-in installed.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Atheistnofaith:
Hey everyone, I am enjoying the nexus s 4g(traded in my Evo 4g) but I have noticed some issues started to pop up after the OTA update to 2.3.4.(Build GRJ22). Also I am not rooted yet(for fear i will not be able to receive the next update that may resolve the issue's listed below).

Note I have updated my Profile, and PRL(Next to flashing to another ROM to mitigate the issue's).

1) Battery Charging, after the update the battery will not charge past ~95 percent.

2) Battery Life when idle, before the update battery life was outstanding with moderate usage. Now the device's battery life drops to ~85 percent after being unplugged for 15-20 mins.

3)Signal Reception, yet again my phone will constantly switch between 1x, and 3g even though my SNR, and DB never hits above ~65DB-~70DB.

4)Data Rate/Bandwidth, I was pulling 3-4 megs down/ 1.5 - 2.0 megs up(I live in the Virginia Beach Area) over 3g, Now I get "**** for speeds"(.3 megs down/.25 megs up. Maybe it is reference to the issue listed above(AOSP ROMS in my opinion provide a more accurate display of mobile network connectivity).

To end it I hope I am not alone with these issues?

Maybe if possible someone has a solution?

You aren't alone, all of the issues you listed are being looked at by Sprint and Google right now, although like the above poster said, the battery thing is intentional. Hopefuly they figure out what is wrong soon =/

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rentaric:
nope. depending on the version you are going back to you'll mostlikely get an insta notification that 2.3.4 is available for your device, you just got to ignore it until they either fix 2.3.4 or release 2.3.5.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tnerb123:
2.3.4 is already out. If they release a new fix it will be 2.3.5.

It will install back a stock recovery and it will fail if you alter any system apps other than that the ota will work

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Atheistnofaith:
Hey man, I returned the phone yesterday, and then bought a replacement(same model, but in order to avoid sprint's one exchange limit) With regards to the battery issue, it most likely is hardware related because the new phone running 2.3.4.(Build GRJ22), charges fully and does not have the so called "protect your battery feature". Also while i was at the Sprint Store, I compared the signal strength of my original Nexus S to an HTC Evo, HTC Evo Shift, and another Nexus S 4g. Oddly enough even in the store(which has signal booster's all over the place. All of the phones where around -76db. I am starting to think it is either a hardware issue or a ****ty baseband version. Most likely hardware. Kind of reminds me of the Samsung Captivate i had with AT&T and the ever so wonderful bug with Odin(Orange/Blue flashing screen of death that turned my investment into a paperweight. Also after running the *#*#4636#*#*, and displaying the Preferred Network Settings, I noticed on all 3 phones tested, all devices would switch from WCDMA, to Uknown, to the best of my understanding the default should be CDMA_Auto PRL. Very Strange, very strange indead......... Samsung needs to invest into quality control, before lawsuits start.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] herbthehammer:
Damn! I am on wifi and charging the phone. I just woke up and picked up the phone and started using it. I've experienced that using the phone after an overnight charge, but not removing it from the charger, will make my battery go up to 98%. I just saw it hit 99 and was like I need to get a screen shot of this. By the time I downloaded and installed something it dropped back down to 98. I've never seen this phone hit 99 before today. If it does it again I am prepared to archive it.

Hi I am looking at getting a new phone currently I have a htc desire and it made me fall in love with android because with my desire I rooted and flashed custom roms.

Which phone would you suggest I go for that is either out at the min or is soon to be released.

It must be android in order to compete with my desire

Thanks for your opinions
[General Questions and Answers] feralicious:
I too am currently looking for an android phone.

I was pretty much sure I was going to get the Thunderbolt or Evo depending on if Verizon would match Sprint's current bonus minutes offer. But now I've been reading about other phones (LG G2x, EVO 3D coming soon...) and new developments such as dual core processors, etc... and I'm thinking maybe I should wait.

:confused:
[General Questions and Answers] k0zmic:
Depends what your budget is. Galaxy S II seems a favorite.
[General Questions and Answers] sephriam:
I think it'd be a good idea to think of what you want and then we could make some suggestions... I'm hoping for the Droid Pro II (eventually) but that's because I like keys and don't mind the smaller screen.
[General Questions and Answers] feralicious:
Since the OP hasn't been back I won't feel bad hijacking this thread. :cool:

Looks like now I'm deciding between the Galaxy S II and the Evo 3D.

Since the GS2 is going to be open source, does that mean we will probably be able to put HTC Sense 3.0 on the GS2? I really wanted an HTC and I like their UI but I think I'd rather have the better camera than 3D.

Is there another HTC phone that will compare with the GS2? Also, I read Samsung is bad about updating, but if I'm rooting and flashing a new ROM that is moot, right? The devs will update ROMS here and I can grab those, right?

It's really more phone than I think I need but I've had mine for almost a year past my contract expiring so I'm not someone who needs to replace my phone asap, I will probably live with new phone for 3-4 years. And I don't mind waiting a few more months for price drop and devs to do their thing. So I'd like to future proof it a little bit even if it costs a bit more right now, I think.

Or I get the Thunderbolt right now but it seems like I should go to dual processors and 1gb ram for future OS updates but that is kind of guessing on my part based on what I've been reading the past few days.

I'm going to use it mostly for phone, texts, email, music and internet browsing. Then once I learn more about the android apps I'd like to integrate it with my home AV system as much as possible. I'm coming from a dumbphone that I dropped my data plan for so it's just calls and texts and casual pic taking right now. Kind of excited to get a smartphone.

I dont know how this hasnt gotten alot of attention but if you hold the g2x like you would normally during use with your left hand, cell data strength drops significantly.

Also, if you run speed test with the phone in your left hand and then right hand in comparison, you will see the drop in data speeds (namely upload) is devastating. If you even switch hands during the speed test you can see the upload speeds change almost instantly as well as the cell data signal.

Ive had this issue with all my g2x's. If you hold the g2x in your left hand, please test this for yourself and report back. Also, any solutions would be appreciated.

I know when most people see a death grip issue for a phone they usually just respond with something along the lines of "well you would have to hold the phone in a position you would never use in normal use" i understand that but for the g2x just holding it in your left hand in a normal use position drops signal and upload speed to 2g-3g speeds.
