[EVO 4G General] misery in motion:
Yesterday (June 12, 2011) I decided to use Sprint's method for conditioning ones battery:

-charge for a minimum for 8 hours with phone on

-unplug and power down

-charge at least 1 hour with phone off

-unplug and power phone back on then power back down after 2 minutes

-charge for another hour and unplug, power back up.

I then proceeded to use my EVO as I normally would without exception. When my phone notified me at 15% battery left, I noted the following stats:

-Up time 08:14

-Awake time 02:45

The following were the top three battery usage stats:

-Display, 78%, 1h 28m

-Cell Standby, 7%, 8h 13m, 0% time without signal

-Phone Idle, 6%, 6h 44m

I am on a hardware v0003 EVO, rooted, running xHausx's stock Odexed Gingerbread rom and kernal with the most current radios. Some other useful information about how my EVO is configured:

-WiFi disabled (used 3G only the whole time)

-Bluetooth disabled

-GPS enabled

-Auto-sync enabled (Gmail & Facebook for HTC Sense; I do not use and do not have installed the actual Facebook app)

-Auto-brightness disabled (constant 40%)

-Screen timeout 30s

-4G disabled

-Mobile network enabled

I use the following apps on a regular basis:

-Beluga

-DI Radio

-Friend Stream

-Gmail

-Godville

-Stock Internet Browser

-Stock SMS/MMS app

-Racing Live

Tomorrow I will report again on todays usage stats. If there is any other pertinent information people feel I should include please let me know and I will do so.
[EVO 4G General] misery in motion:
Made it 10h 47m at the 15% notification this time around. No change in usage really, just the norm.

How do I install Google body on CM7.03 GT?

Google body is made for honeycomb but it should be able to run on 2.3.3. I have the apk file but when I go to side load it is gives me an error message. Any ideas how to install it. It is a sweet app and it would help with my A&P class.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Mantara:
You may have to move to illuminate or bottle of smoke as your rom. I tried to get it to load on cm7 and it wouldn't. If is for a&p its works the the switch to get it running.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] monkey10120:
I would love to change to bottle of smoke I think it is a great mod but it is not stable yet and I am all set up and have CM7 the way I want it.

If you hear of a work around or manual install let me know!
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Mantara:
I can tell you that I used droidiris, a free photo search app from the market, to make myself visual flashcards on my gtab for my A&P clas. Droidiris works like cooliris for PC and lets you search and view mass quantities of pics from the internet in a sleek UI. I would do a search for whatever I was learning, ampule of Vader or spungenosum or whatever and find a good pic and save it. I could then go to gallery and swipe through the pics and test myself.

Its not Google body but it got the job done and I actually learned a lot from all the pics.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] monkey10120:
I might actually try bottle of smoke. One question though..... I am running CM7 right now and is it possible for me to just clear all data and cache, then flash BOS 5.1.

The web site says I should be in rom 1.2 but I do not know if I am but I did nvflash my tab before to get CM7. So could I just flash the rom after clearing data and cache. Because if I could that would be so much easier.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Mantara:
If you are in cm7 you are in 1.1bl.

You would need to nvflash to stock 4349 to load it.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Mantara:
Here is a link to help nvflash to stock.

http://viewsonic-gtablet-for-dummies.webs.com/

also it is an alpha. So that means its a rough draft and **** may not work 100%
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] monkey10120:
Yeah last night i tried flashing BOS 5.1 and it did brick my gtab, but then i nvflash and updated to 2.1 and it did work. So far i really like it. Its fast, overclocked to 1.5, and things are working about 70% of the time.

Im new to BOS but how often are the updates coming out?
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] mstevens:
Why should that be true?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ali_khalid5518:
hi guys i install 2.3.4 from samfirmware and when i check i have no CMW and Superuser app installed in it.......can anyone tell whats that mean coz i m really stucked that how i make the titanium backup without supperuser......coz it is not allowing me to use titanium backup and some other apps.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Speakershock:
The firmware from samfirmware is official, so it does not come with superuser or CWM. Check the dev section and flash a kernel with CWM, and superuser. I suggest CF-root.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] tuksedra:
or hardcore.. speedmod is the best on my jvp for now
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ali_khalid5518:
can u plz tell me what is dev section and how i get rom from their plzzzzzz
[Galaxy S I9000 General] goughymachine:
I'm wondering, you had a phone with root, superuser and cmw before upgrading to 2.3.4? How did you get your phone to that point before this upgrade? Because the process would be the same really.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] MagicOnline:
are you kidding? :rolleyes:

DEV Section
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ali_khalid5518:
sorry for that i cant get ur word that time.....thanks for this and plz tell me which one is best rom.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] malcho:
My advice.Do not flash rom before one week of reading posts in xda forum.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sonci:
What about Sammy application, which are missed in 2.3.4,?

I was affected to Konami Crazy Cart game
[Galaxy S I9000 General] barvna:
I miss the allshare application!!!!!!!!!!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sonci:
I still have Allshare in 2.3.4, downloaded from SammyFirmware
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ali_khalid5518:
in 2.3.4 some apps just like Superuser and CMW is not built in it........but this firmware is bit fast then 2.3.3 u can manually install superuser
[Galaxy S I9000 General] goughymachine:
superuser and cmw are not built into any android version. You can dowload superuser from the market but I believe your phone needs to be rooted to use it.

In effect these are after market add ons that will give you more functionality. But they are nothing to do with google.

Ali, if you don't mind me asking did you purchase your phone second hand? Or have someone else do some stuff to your phone for you? I'm only asking because I would normally assume that a person that has rooted, and applied cmw to their phone would know that they've done it after market.

Anyway, hope everything goes well for you so far. But have a good read around the various forums in the i9000 galaxy section. There's lots to learn.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ali_khalid5518:
well my phone is rooted buddy last i m using jvk rom 2.3.3 and i have superuser and cmw in it and the darky and other all contain these apps but this one not have these apps.......so why it is
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Montala:
Go back to the first page of this thread again, and read carefully what everyone has said... again!

All the answers are there for you!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] arr0ww:
Darky's ROM comes pre-rooted, as do most of the roms in the DEV section. The rom you installed (JVP 2.3.4) is a STOCK rom from SAMSUNG. Stock roms do not have CWM, Superuser and are NOT rooted.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] goughymachine:
You need to read this whole thread again. All your answers are in it. Simply, custom rom may contain cmw, root and su. Non custom won't. You have non custom.

[Verizon Droid Charge] distortedloop:
I was poking around in settings/about and right underneath my phone number is an item called MIN with a 10-digit number that has the same area code as my phone number.

I figured it was something to do with the modem/LTE/sim, but for fun I dialed it and got some guy's voicemail!

Anyone know what this MIN setting number actually is about?

edit: nuts, posted in wrong section, I've asked moderator to move it.
[Verizon Droid Charge] uefcommad:
When you dial your phone number it routs to your MIN, carrier specific. Where as your MTN can be moved from carrier to carrier.

The MIN (Mobile Identification Number) is simply the phone number of the cellular telephone.

Unlike the IMEI, the MIN is not an attribute of the physical phone. The MIN is stored in a database managed by the cellular provider and can be changed at any time.
[Verizon Droid Charge] distortedloop:
Interesting, and thanks.

[EDIT] DO NOT USE WITH CM7...IT WILL MESS UP YOUR GALLERY THUMBNAIL

If you are looking for an app to do more than screenshots, the app shootme from the market allows you to save video screen capture. ..video shot or what ever you want to call it.you go on the settings when the apps open and you will see it with the other options

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.bw.picme.local&hl=en

I found it the other day, I just,thought more people should know about
[Defy Themes and Apps] marhensa:
actually if you are using CM7, shootme will mess up your gallery thumbnail.

older picture thumbnail will replaced with screenshot thumbnail.

use PicMe, you can grab picture from your computer via wifi

but your computer and defy must be on same network.

the others is Screen Shot It, just like Shootme,

but it won't messing your CM7 gallery thumbnail.

it's paid one... :(
[Defy Themes and Apps] rachit2588:
Ok it messed up my galery...now is der a way to recache all the thumbnails...
[Defy Themes and Apps] defyuk:
Im sorry I wasnt aware of that problem, im obviously not running cm7 ,,, ive got stock rooted 2.2.2 now.
[Defy Themes and Apps] klickig:
have to try!
[Defy Themes and Apps] UEman:
I don't have any problems with shoot me messing up my thumbnails but i'm running CM7. I don't know why it is like that. Seems like i've had luck.

[Captivate General] defriend:
Hi,

Ever since the 2.2 update (via Kies) a few months ago I consistently have these 3 problems:

1. Wifi connection gets corrupted: I cannot connect to my home wifi router. I can connect to other aps, by not able to connect to my home network. I used an app called fixr, which fixes this issue for a few days, then again the connection stops working. I even did a factory reset - same thing, wifi worked for a few days, and then unable to connect. Just says "obtaining IP address" multiple times and then "Error" in wifi settings. Even a reboot does NOT fix this!!

2. Unable to play Video files: After the phone is been on for 1 or 2 days, video stops playing. Get a "Unable to play this video. Try again later" for youtube videos, and "Unable to play this type of file" for videos downloaded from web. If I reboot the phone, the video works!! But it takes 10-15 minutes by the time the phone settles down after the reboot. So rebooting the phone every time I want to see a video is not an option. Anyway, about 12-24 hrs after the reboot - back to square one - unable to play video..

3. Unable to play google voice voice mails: This seems to be connected to the video situation. I notice that they go hand in hand. A reboot fixes this, but same issue as above.

Please help :confused:

Nick

my wife and i are moving to verizon this week and i need to know what solid android phones there are out there. im buying her that droid pro with the keyboard but im coming from the htc evo, so id like another powerhouse.
[General Questions and Answers] Ultra Droid:
Try the DroidX - I'm talking last year's model - it's big, fast, was recently upgraded to Gingerbread, AND it's *cheap*. You can probably get the brand new phone for free if you check Amazon and Best Buy.

The DroidX2 - the new model - just came out, so it would cost more but doesn't really bring that much more to the table. From a "bang for your buck" standpoint, I'd rate the Droid X a best buy.

-Mike
[General Questions and Answers] fixxxer2008:
isn't the droid x not rootable? doesn't it have a locked bootloader?
[General Questions and Answers] noesilva:
Go with the droid charge its the best verizon has to offer at the moment
[General Questions and Answers] fixxxer2008:
im leaning towards the thunderbolt.
[General Questions and Answers] bustedukulele:
I just got the Thunderbolt and I love it. Are you living in a 4g area?

If you are then there isn't much to offer. Thunderbolt, Charge and an LG.

Theres multiple non-4g phones: X2, htc incredible 2 and the Droid 3 (with a keyboard) will be out soon.

If you had an Evo than the Thunderbolt will be very familiar to you.
[General Questions and Answers] djmurphix:
my cliq is running great.
[General Questions and Answers] WBMc36:
the thunderbolt is a beast. Dual core is overkill as of now, seeing as my thunderbolt on CM7 with stock cpu speed posted quadrant scores of 2400. I am coming from the incredible, which was essentially the little brother of the evo. Thunderbolt will definitely be a good choice. Although battery isn't too great.
[General Questions and Answers] NTATKD:
The battery life on the TB is fine if you root and install custom roms/kernels. It will easily go the whole day with the froyo roms and kernels out there. GB seems to eat more battery, but still better than stock by a mile.
[General Questions and Answers] vbetts:
Not a fan of Motorola phones, but the X2 is pretty nice if you don't have LTE in your area.

If you do, then I would go for the Thunderbolt easily. The Charge is nice and fast, but me personally I don't feel it's worth the $250.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fianor:
I have been trying to find answers for a week now and have found a lot of info. The problem is most of the info is contradictory and I'm not really sure which is good and which is not. I currently have an AT&T Samsung Captivate, firmware ver 2.2, kernel ver. 2.6.32.9 build# FROYO.UCKB1. I believe that is the stock At&t froyo build. It is rooted, I do have SGS tools (which I don't really understand what all it can do for me) and Titanium backup (which I've not tried to use yet for fear of breaking my phone). I run 91PandaHome and a bunch of apps I like.

My problem is that the phone sometimes is just really sluggish, certain programs really kill it. For example, I have PlantVsZombies which mostly runs ok, but sometimes slows down and worse 3 out of 5 times I play will not close. I have to power/volume up reboot to get out of the game. Other programs occasionally do this to me, but not as often.

I've been reading up and see that there are lagfixes, and understand that samsung apparently chose a ****ty file system, but I don't understand android well enough to know what's safe. What I want to know is what is as of today the safest, easiest way to fix the lag. I think I am going to be told something that changes the file system to ext4 is what I want, but I really don't understand what will be safe to use for that. I thought I wanted OneClickLagFix, then I found that maybe Voodoo was what I wanted, and now it seems that neither is currently being developed. Reliability, ease of transition and ease of putting it back to stock are important factors for me.

Suggestions, links and general help will be greatly appreciated.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Born2BeMild:
Try going to a custom rom where all of that is done for you. Since you are new to this, I suggest you go look up the rom Serendipity 6.4, it's very easy to install and has it's own thread in the development section.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmtheiss:
Just a few quick things:

Titanium backup is a good friend to have on your phone. It won't break it - it will just take snapshots (for lack of a better phrase) of your apps so that you can restore them later if you need to.

Most lagfixes are cooked into kernels, so using lagfix will most likely go hand-in-hand with flashing to a custom rom. Not that you can't lagfix stock, but statistically speaking, lagfix will be done with a new kernel via the Clockworkmod Recovery Menu.

As for general fixing of lagginess... (READ UP FIRST) Flash a custom Rom (READ MORE). Most of the problems you're experiencing (ARE YOU READING UP ON FLASHING?) should be fixed by flashing (DO MORE READING) a custom rom. Do some research on roms and pick one that you think you'll like. (Note - don't post questions asking which one to do, it tends to be a bit of a touchy subject on the forum.) If you're wanting to be cautious, it would be safer to stay with a Froyo-based rom, as they're more tested and there's less danger involved (specifically, you don't have to flash bootloaders, which is the area where you can get a real brick).

Oh, and (shameless self plug) if you need to know what different terminology and items on the forum mean, just click the link in my signature.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Miami_Son:
Actually, it CAN break your phone if you don't know how to use it. Backing up is safe, but never, ever restore system data with TiBu when changing ROMs and only restore app data you know is safe.

I would recommend staying away from any Gingerbread-based ROMs until you have a better understanding of the phone and the process. Andromeda 3 is a good choice for a Froyo-based ROM and is very easy to flash, but do your research on the process before you attempt it. Almost any custom ROM will have a lagfix in the kernel and performance will be noticeably better than stock. You will likely have to redo your root after installing a new ROM, so read up on that process, too.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DaNaRkI:
I lol'd at the "()" parts

To build on jmtheiss post. For "reliability" look for a

KB1

based ROM as this is what your phone is currently running, and is the newest version of firmware written specifically for the AT&T captivate. You won't come across any major issues that make the phone unusable, nor any "annoying" bugs. Then if your feeling more adventurous, and have gotten a solid understanding of the process of flashing ROMs, look to I9000 based 2.2.x ROMs, and lastly 2.3.x based ROMs.

For "ease of transition" start by getting the SGS Kernel Flasher or Heimdall to change the kernel. From there you can get past 3e recovery and you'll be free to make other changes.

For "ease of putting it back to stock" first find out what is your stock. Since this phone technically has 3 different "stock" firmwares. Then get a copy of that firmware (and steps on how to flash it) and keep it on your computer, in a location you'll be able to find easily in case of problems. Depending on how far "to the dark side" you go, will effect just how much of the "stock" files you'll need to keep as backups.

Personally I'd suggest this ROM as it's whats currently on my phone. Many have started off with Cognition and it's still a crowd fav. Both are KB1 based ROMs

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meltedphone74:
Hi, hopefully you can help me with this.

I have been recording with my photo camera clip videos in AVI/Jpeg for several years, and I have a few of beloved clips on my desktop that I would like to watch on my galaxy S II. Dice and stock videoplayer cannot open the files, Mobo can, but the video is not good and the audio is not working at all.

I would like to know, if it is possible to install a codec or using a special videoplayer, or instead am I forced to convert the clips to another format supported by the phone?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hunteres:
yes u can. if it wont work with stock palyer check out rockplayer (free) or any other. u shoudlnt have any problems at all.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meltedphone74:
Thanks for your replay. I tried rockplayer. Nice player, It works well for the video (software mode decoding) but the audio is totally corrupted. The audio format is PCM_u8 (16000@1ch). The clip were taken with a Fuji F31, a best seller a few years ago, hard to believe it was recording audio in a so weird format that nothing can read it...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hunteres:
yeh..then mate u will be forced to change the format - convert the video(audio) in order to see it on SGS2. i am afraid.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ruteral:
galaxy s 2 supports such as MP4, DivX, XviD, WMV, H.264, H.263 video codec and MP3, WAV, eAAC+, AC3, FLAC audio codec. you need to confirm your AVI videos is one of them. both audio and video. if not, easier way is to convert them when player dont meet your want.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benzino1:
Video from Fuji F30

I've got the Fuji F30 with exactly the same problem: video playback somehow works -albeit jerky- but PCM audio doesn't at all. Is there a general problem with PCM decoding on android?

I tried both my Samsung Galaxy Tab and the Motorola Defy, both running gingerbread. I tried MoBo and Rockplayer. Stock player doesn't even open that video :(
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meltedphone74:
It s an hassle having to re-encode your clips, but at least xilsoft or wondershare rippers worked well with me. Honestly the F30 serie cameras are out of date when it comes to video. Shame, because sensor quality is unmatched in a supercompact...
