[LG Optimus 2x] pastime1971:
maximum volume index for phone call

in frameworks/base/media/java/android/media/AudioService.java

private int[] MAX_STREAM_VOLUME = new int[] {

5, // STREAM_VOICE_CALL

7, // STREAM_SYSTEM

7, // STREAM_RING

15, // STREAM_MUSIC

7, // STREAM_ALARM

7, // STREAM_NOTIFICATION

15, // STREAM_BLUETOOTH_SCO

7, // STREAM_SYSTEM_ENFORCED

15, // STREAM_DTMF

15, // STREAM_TTS

15 // STREAM_FM

};

the maximum volume index for VOICE CALL is set to only 5. is there any particular reason that it is set so low ? i'm experience a rather low volume on phone calls and i wonder if this is the reason or not...

edit: and then it is re-initialized by ro.config.vc_call_vol_steps in build.prop, but my build.prop does NOT define this value. could this be a reason why some people suffer too loud in call volume and some (me) the opposite ?

edit: it seems like ro.config.vc_call_vol_steps is just how many steps in in-call volume adjust, not the maximum volume... man, i just don't get that code....

edit: well, maybe it means that maximum == number of steps when step size == 1

i had a rather low in-call volume.

setting ro.config.vc_call_steps=20 sounds pretty good now on my P990.

Please let me know!

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yamanote:
CRT on animation was something you could switch on in Cyanogenmod settings iirc.

Not sure if it relies on the CM framework or anything though.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogerPodacter:
yes CRT on animation is part of cyanogen ROM. just have to wait till that ROM is available for the SGS2.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ram_kalam:
The Cyanogen mod IS coming for SG2 though isnt it?! I did see the thread on development...

But I'm quite happy with Litening... Lets see if its there in the next version

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yamanote:
Development of CM7 for the Galaxy S II is underway. See the thread in the android development section for more details.

not sure if it's possible to enable it via another method... depends if the CRT on animation depends on the CM framework.

No, you don't. Point of backup is to restore your phone in previous state, so it would be pointless to wipe anything after restore.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BonkyMoon:
You can flash the radio and rom in any order. My personal preference is to do the rom first and then the radio, but I have no reason to believe that doing it the other way around would be detrimental in any way.

MikG does come with the latest kernel and I'm pretty sure the hotspot is unlocked too, but honestly I prefer to use Wifi Tether For Root Users since it allows tethering with WiMax whereas the hotspot app forces EVDO. If you're not in a 4G area though it's a moot point :)

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jtc42:
Hi everyone,

I know it's a common question but I can't seem to find a straight answer anywhere, so here it goes >.<

I'm thinking of buying the SGS2. The hardware is really marvellous, unfortunately when I used one before, I thought the software bundled goes a long way to spoiling it.

Now I understand the only way to get rid of the bundled apps is to root, but rooting also voids the warranty, and runs up a counter, which can be reset but that reset runs up another hidden counter O.o

Having dealt with Samsung before, their quality control seems to be lacking at best, so I would really want to keep the warranty intact as best as I can.

My question is this, does rooting just to remove apps completely void the warranty? Are there any reports of Samsung doing repairs on rooted devices?

And if not, if there any other way of at least masking or hiding the bloatware without voiding the warranty?

I'm going to be stuck with this device for 2 years if I get it, I dont want to lose the warranty just to get rid of some unnecesarry crap apps.

Thanks all, sorry for the newby thread, but I wanted a straight answer, and might be nice for other newbies coming over :)
[Desire General] jaavaa:
Hello folks!

okay, the facts are: Im in very good 3g reception zone, MIUI 1.6.6 with default kernel, .08 radio, data on, wifi off.

Problem is poor battery life when 3G is enabled. Also, when using mobile data the H icon appears and data moves in and out, but sometimes the H icon just disappears and i get network error? I've tried numerous radio/kernel/rom combinations.

When i put airplanemode on, the battery consumption is constant 2mA (currentwidget). With 2G networks only, its 3-6mA. When 3G enabled, mostly the consumption is 20-40mA and sometimes like 10 times in day with minute interval of refreshing i get 8mA readigs. Any app to check if there is some syncing going on? I use only beautyful widgets weather widget, which updates itself hourly. And the normal contacts and calendar sync on. Fellow MIUI users have much lower consumption, a mate of mine gets 2-4mA when 3g enabled.
[Desire General] MatDrOiD:
3g mobile network is one the battery killers. The h icon stands for hsdpa. This the fastest network but the network coverage is not that good yet (except for big cities). Switch network to 2g network (mobile off). If you really need mobile network, switch on 3g. Otherwise stay with 2g. There's imho no sense in using 3g without needing/using mobile network.
[Desire General] jaavaa:
I tried using BatteryFu and APNdroid to get rid of my 3G while screen off. But that combination didnt work so well, sometimes it didnt disable my 3g and sometimes it wouldnt reconnect to 3G when unlocked. Any good programs to manage this?

I also wonder, I never cant download anything when 3G icon is appearing in statusbar. Its normally 3G but when I want to use the internet, it changes to H. Why cant I use the 3G network then? Im also having problems when the H goes to 3G the internet connection is lost. For example in market i get network error. The H wont stay there if there is no traffic for few secs.
[Desire General] MatDrOiD:
Configured apn correctly? If you are not sure, do it again. Furthermore, you could try these settings for mobile network:

Uncheck data enabled and set network to 2g/gsm (depending on what you have). When you need mobile network, switch to "wcmda + gsm (automatically)" (name could be a litte different, translated it from germany) and check data enabled. I do it so and it's working fine.
[Desire General] jaavaa:
Okay didnt understand very well what u ment by the last part of ur message :D

APN configured correctly? I have carrier default APN settings which have been working just fine for a year. If u ment APNdroid i didnt do much configuring with it. Gotta give it another try.
[Desire General] MatDrOiD:
Last idea: flash latest radio.

No warranty for any damage.

Hi guys,

After a week with hard usage, I decided to adjust my SGS2 battery. Maybe you know this method anyway... It works for me at least and I can see the improvment.

Here we go,

Let the phone charge 100% full. Unpluge and turn it OFF...

Plug charger and wait again till 100%...Then unplug it again...

Turn the phone ON ...Use a few minutes DONT PLUG.

And finally, turn it OFF again and plug charger and wait till 100% full of charge.

Now you can turn it on and use...DONE...

Hope it helps... :)
[Galaxy S II General] prodygee:
This is close to the way of doing it, but the battery stats file remains. So to improve this further, you'll need to wipe the battery stats. Let it decharge. Then charge it to 100% while it's off or something.
[Galaxy S II General] dainys:
So what does that give to you? Better batery life? How did you decide that it works?
[Galaxy S II General] zanbay:
Its like; after 10-15 minutes playing game, battery is still 100% :)
