[HTC Sensation] jrwingate6:
I used to have this issue until I changed the wifi performance to maximum and out a gel skin case on. Now mine doesn't even drop a bar from 2 rooms away.
[HTC Sensation] adamtheluck:
How do you set the WiFi to maximum?

Thanks in advance
[HTC Sensation] jrwingate6:
Menu/settings/wireless settings/wifi settings/menu/advanced settings/set wifI on maximum performance.
[HTC Sensation] adamtheluck:
Thank you :)
[HTC Sensation] graffixnyc:
I would notice the signal go down when I held it in landscape but it never dropped completely but last night I got the real effect of it. I was streaming a movie from my computer and viewing it on my sensation using splash top (only about 15-20 feet away from the roiter) Everytime I held the sensation and touched the "death grip" spot my video would stutter.. Tried setting the wifi to max performance and I have the tmo gel case on.

I guess one difference between this and the Iphone antenna-gate is that if HTC does consider it a problem and does fix it, they only have to replace the back cover and not the whole phone :)

I heard someone said foil on the outside helps out the issue, but it looks really ugly. Wonder if we can come up with a fix that can be done on the inside of the cover. Maybe attach more wiring to the connections or something..

Wonder if those cheap cell phone singal booster on the inside cover would help out at all.. hey if foil did then maybe one of the will shrugs

I gave you a thanks for this :D

Trying to Figure out the Wifi-Death Grip Issue

Something Odd happened to me, i wanted to share with the rest of the comments here because i have not been impressed with my Sensation's performance so far. I have had the normal low volume and the erratic sense speeds along with what Phil showed when trying to use the carousel, but nothing was more annoying as with the wifi issue. I got it five feet from my router and i have two routers and one is open and one has PS2K. I tried it with and without the cover and behold i lost my signal when i held it in landscape or put it lying flat. I decided i needed to go to a T-mobile and complain about it, but while i was waiting to be attended, i went ahead and started playing with the sensation they had on display. To my surprise i could not duplicate the issue at all, I checked their version and went to the advanced setting under wifi and it was no put on maximum performance. I pulled out mine and as you could imagine, i could not duplicate the issue anymore. I was puzzled because although i lost some bars, it remained connected and i did not lose the signal completely or as easily when i was at home. I decided not to look like a fool and when across the street to a Best-Buy, and logged onto their open network and had no issue again i tried to put the death grip on it, put it in landscape or lay it flat on it's back and although i was looking some bars, i could not duplicate what was going on at my house. I went back home and reset my routers and the issue is still there. So from what i can tell, i think we may need to find out if this issue is with some routers only or with the encryption used.

FYI: I have a N1, IPad2, HD2, MY3G and don't have any wifi or death grip issues with any one of them so i am seriously leaning to a software issue.

Whatever, the issue i can see Why Phil and a lot others do not see this issue and i can understand why a lot of us are experiencing the issue. Hope something is found out soon.

Routers i use:

DLink (DIR 601) Open network

Ambit WPA2-PSK

(i have tried changing channels and updating firmware on both routers)

Is there any hack to disable swipe to unlock on the new Nook Touch?

I use my reader at a lot of "dangerous" areas: beach, pool, lake. I keep it in one of the TrendyDigital waterproof baggies. They work great on my old Sony PRS-505 and on my Kindle 3. On the Nook Touch there is no way to turn the device on because of the swipe to unlock. I would just leave it on but there is no way to disable the screen saver.

Thanks!

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] les02jen17:
IS IT POSSIBLE TO...

1. Partition a microSD card in such a way that we can multi-boot MORE THAN 2 ROMS?

Eg. Rooted Stock B&N NC ROM in the eMMC and then CM7/Phiremod/HC (two of them or all 3 of them) on the microSD?

2. If #1 is possible, is it possible to have just asingle DATA partition for all ROMS? (So as to make it easier to install/uninstall apps.)

3. If #1 is not possible, can I then just have a Rooted Stock B&N NC 1.2 ROM (for the mere purpose of retaining the NC's stock status bar ;p) in the eMMC and have it overclocked and can multi-boot from a microSD any custom ROM I might like ($CM7/Phiremod/HC--just one of the three.) and have the ROM at the microSD overclocked as well? And can you please teach me how, if it's possible?

4. Can you also teach me how to backup my apps?

Currently, I have:

CM7 nightly 108 on eMMC + Dalingrin's OC Kernel (06/18/2011 update) My microSD is 16GB, and I don't know jow to partition it.

Please teavh me how or at least post a link that can get me tk a tutorial or somehing. :) Thanks in advance!!!

[Eee Pad Transformer General] magicpork:
daily free app so should last one day or so..

you need to buy it on your PC or phone first before it can be downloaded to the TF.. purchase on the TF gives a 'device not supported' error.

The game itself is playable..much like the amazon version of PVZ..but the graphics are not optimized for the tablet..
[Eee Pad Transformer General] brachiopod:
I download and use the free apps from the Amazon app store on my TF all the time. I only have the Appstore installed on the TF, not my desktop. Not sure why you are getting the error about not being supported.

Edit: Ah, UK, maybe that's it.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Aryantes:
This is an issue with Peggle, not amazon apps.

Clicking Get App from the Appstore application on the TF gives a device not supported error.

I got the same thing, from the US.

Instead, I went to the amazon website, clicked buy (for $0.00) and then went into the TF and went to My Apps and clicked install.

I downloaded Peggle from the amazon app store and installed it on my rooted Milestone. Much like plants vs zombies it loads up and crashes after loading the logo and hourglass. Using the same apk I've got it working on a galaxy Vibrant and captivate. Could it be because my phone is rooted or is the milestone just not powerful enough to run it?

Are you going to make a GB kernel because right now there is only one, it is a great kernel but there is only one.
[Vibrant Android Development] Mr. Apocalypse:
I'll think about it, i'm still learning :D

Next on the list is a 1.4ghz overclock kernel, but i'll see how you guys like this one.

Good job, man! I'm coming from Bali and I have to say that this is really responsive and snappy! Bali would freeze up every so often, but I'm not having any issues with this so far. It'll be interesting to see how much battery life it'll get.

I'll post later with my experience with it. I'm liking it so far though :)
[Vibrant Android Development] Vyrus408:
Came from Bali kernel and running	Nextgen V2. This kernel is BAD!! So smooth and very responsive. Awesome job on this project.

[Vibrant Android Development] draychi:
Running great so far, but using voltage control...the kernel seems to never fall below 800 mhz and 1200 voltage comes up as undetected. I'm running it on conservative, noop, slider on 1200. Saved settings and rebooted a few times...crunching battery right now because of it.

Am I missing something or just had too many beers? Lol

<('.'<) ^( '.' )^ (>'.')>
[Vibrant Android Development] Mr. Apocalypse:
try switching to the BFQ scheduler, and give the batt a good cycle before judging the battery, OCing can do that, thats why it boots to 1ghz by default
[Vibrant Android Development] draychi:
Yea, I always let new flashes run a few cycles...but the cpu is still running high and I'm not sure why...

I love the kernel but the the bootimage is kinda "Ehh"
[Vibrant Android Development] Mr. Apocalypse:
It had a skull, but I changed it at the last minute, too many people would've complained ;)

Sent from my XDA app cuz I'm stalking your mom....
[Vibrant Android Development] Mr. Apocalypse:
First of all, you're right, i am the boss. This is my kernel, my kernel splash and the skull is necessary to me, i enjoy looking at a badass skull when i turn my phone on. If you dont like it, stop rebooting your phone.

Second, if you want to change the splash yourself, here you go, build it you damn self: http://code.google.com/p/immortality-kernel/source/browse/

notice there arent any image files in there, because custom splashes arent as easy as you all think, you dont just drag n drop a damn jpeg and hope it builds. Good luck finding where it is, and dont forget to build Voodoo lagfix and CWM recovery into it. Gotta get your own ramdisk. Have fun with the EXT4 patches and configuration Mr. "Art Director with over 25 years of experience"

Third, i'm 21, not 14. Most of us would know the age of the person we're insulting, but most of us isnt an "Art Director with over 25 years of experience" .

Fourth, the splash only last for a few seconds, if you're too much of a [bleep] to handle a skull, then maybe you should try something else less scary.

Last, nobody has to worry about my "horrible" splash screens on xda anymore. I'm sick of people PMing and emailing me about the dumbest stuff like a kernel splash. From now on, i'm done releasing stuff on xda.
[Vibrant Android Development] cwalker0906:
Dont let jerks like this run off of xda...i am very appreciative of your work and every one on here and it appalls me the arrogance some people have by criticizing peoples work...a bug report is one thing but a splashscreen reallly.thats just crazy....from a grown man at that...but dont let people like him discourage u......i hope u come back we lost to many already....thank you for your work....hey art director guy....build me a rom ...till then shut your face

Everything doesn't have to be negative or take negative comments from you. PAY them to make it your way and maybe you might have a voice. Until then.....By the way, your phone CAME WITH A PROFESSIONAL LOOK! Unroot and use it as is! Stock is calling you....do us a favor and ANSWER!!! ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] NCn1:
Hey Mr. Apo , i think u should just ignore them, i mean he saw the skull, if he didnt like it he should just go to Bali or any other kernel. Just by replaying to his request is a waste of ur time. You made it like this, people should be satisfied with what they have. Your work is great, a lot of people appreciate it, if it werent for people like u, our phones would be garbage.

I CALL THEM TROLLS
[Vibrant Android Development] beowolf:
You also need to learn to take criticism instead of getting upset because someone does not like your work. You are getting too use everyone praising you left and right. You may be great at making a fast and efficient kernel, but you have horrible taste in art.

Don't worry, I will not bother you about this anymore since you are so sensitive about it. There are plenty of other capable kernel's out there that work just as well if not better than yours.

This will be my last post here, so flame me all you want. I have a lot of work to do.

STFU already, he's not your son or your brother so he'll take criticism if he wants to or not. So STFU and leave xda or like he said build the splash screen yourself, because this is a not a request line where they will build what you want, they build what they want and we're lucky enough that they share it with us. Dumb a**

My sentiments exactly. Im 45 years old and have been in the IT field as a computer tech at Sandia Labs since 1994. Im a grandfather and and mature and loving father who raised a daughter who is now in college herself. The skin i put on my phone is that of a spooky looking Skull. I just think it looks good and not one professional colleague at work has said one negative word about it.

By the way, Apoc is a good friend of mine which is why i came off so harsh earlier but it pains me to see such a nice guy told how he should be making HIS kernels. Thats all....
[Vibrant Android Development] nirogu325:
I also agree with some people here. If you dislike something published then do something about it. For example: I didn't like the look of the Toxic 8 ROM, so instead of complaining at OP's tastes, I manually changed the frameworks around it (at some point it was kinda hard finding the how-to change the font color) and now I have an even more customized experience. Kinda lame how low some people are and that's why I'm posting less and less here.

Great Kernel

Anyway just to report, for the 1ST TIME EVER, Bionix NextGen 2 and this immortality v2.2 kernel just gave me 13 hours of battery life and i'm using my phone normally, and it also gave me quadrant score of 2000.

this is awesome, I hope you're still here or this helps someone else. Download this and install it it's freaking worth it.
[Vibrant Android Development] creeve4:
I am mainly looking for battery life, no OC.

What scheduler have you (anyone) found to work well with this?

Smartass or Conservative?
[Vibrant Android Development] eltonrosas:
Use smartass it works well
[Vibrant Android Development] eltonrosas:
I'm using 200- 1200 smartass and I"m getting the best battery ever and I've used simply honey, CM7, and now I'm using bionix nextgen v2

I can get from 8am to 9pm or more with normal use. Today I've had heavy use and it's 5pm my time and still have 26 percent even with the OC.
[Vibrant Android Development] burntrat:
I switched to Bali 1.8.8UV, but I had to return to Immortality for the smoothness. This is just awesome on Next Gen v2.

What is everyone undervolting their mV to for v2.2?

Mr. A., I hope you stay on xda to continue your work on kernels and that GingerRed theme. Thanks for the awesome work, dude.

[Vibrant Android Development] cwalker0906:
Im using this on toxic8...way more responsive than bali...better battery to...im over 18 hours and still have 19% left
[Vibrant Android Development] creeve4:
I flashed this twice today, after both times my cpu runs constantly at 1000mhz when the screen is on and I get the SOD whenever the screen goes off (the phone runs really warm even when the screen is off).

I set BFQ and Smartass using Voltage Control.

I have the Project-V ROM.
[Vibrant Android Development] cwalker0906:
Its know smartass can be unstable....i use setcpu and have set to conservative...i dont oc and undervolt -50 across the board. ..I use my phone with no concern of battery and it always last all day...i leave for work at 630 in the morning and usually plug my phone in around 10pm and always have at least 20% left
[Vibrant Android Development] hern1989:
i undervoted -75 across. and underclocked to 800mhz. so far its been a day. no issues.

Sent from my Vibrant
[Vibrant Android Development] burntrat:
Thanks, I tried -100 to see if I could push it further, but I froze when I swyped. -75 seems to be working great so far.

My phone doesn't seem to go into deep sleep though. If I'm lucky I can get the pie chart to be 75% 100mhz, but most of the time it's 800mhz, which kills my battery fast even while idle. I have it set on conservative. I wish smartass would work for me, but I get SOD. I don't get how smartass even saves battery though. Seems like it keeps it at max mhz all the time.
[Vibrant Android Development] hern1989:
are u using voltage control? i tried -100 on the 800mhz but my phone freezes after a couple minutes. -75 i would say its stable if you do it across. and also i use conservative. i find voltage control more easier to manage rather than setcpu. both are great but i prefer voltage control:-)

If I flash this over Bionix 1.3.1 and want to go back to the original kernel included in Bionix 1.3.1 how do I do that?
[Vibrant Android Development] nirogu325:
Since that Bionix-v is based on KB1, choose the KB1 version here and flash away.
[Vibrant Android Development] burntrat:
I'm using setcpu. I haven't tried voltage control yet. Is 800 max enough?

I added some of the super build.prop tweaks and am now getting

better data speeds, which is killing my battery faster so I really need this thing to go into deep sleep. I usually put the phone into flight mode when I sleep to save a lot of battery. Last night, it did not help at all.

Edit: Ok, it is finally going into deep sleep. I see the 100mhz taking over on the pie chart in setcpu. I guess it kicks in when the battery gets low? I'm not sure. I wish it would kick in from full charge and reboot. Overall, it is still a great kernel. In my opinion, it beat Bali 1.8.8UV in smoothness.
