[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] katu2006:
Iphone is more than 3 years old and worth less than $100...Not sure what you're talking about. Or do you still think that Iphone 3g is worth 500??

The topic here was to decide if to buy U8800 or not. If you think that a "smart-phone"s battery should last 24h, then you deserve this phone... :) I'm thinking, "no go". You can get a whole lot more from a Desire.

In my view, the specification says 370h in standby, with wifi on, you should still get 100h...not 24h.

BTW, can you give me an example of an $300 "dumb-phone" ? :))
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] vlc_marcos:
só tiago, I can see that you are Portuguese, I'm to. so with a lot of using you can get one day of battery, with an extreme use. because for me I will use a lot the email because I use it like sms to.my girl that is out of the country so it should e on all the times. the rest us a normal use with calls something like 2 hours of phone calls.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] tiagovale2:
Sorry, I thought you have the 4G... I take back what I said about 500€ iPhone.

370h only if it's sleeping all the time without data, syncs, wifi, etc... With a full smartphone use, 100h are impossible to get otherwise I think the user is not using it with full capacities... Like I said, with all-day wi-fi, sync, notifications, data transfer, good brightness, some GPS, browsing, sms, calls, etc etc (full smartphone use), get 24h+ battery is very hard... My 2 cents.

$300 dumbphone? A "dumbphone" is a phone for those who don't need a smart one, so I don't see the point of your question... If anyone is thinking on spending $300 on a phone, I doubt a dumbphone will do the needs.

(Sorry for my bad English)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] katu2006:
What I meant was that you can't really find dumbphones any more, in less they are $20 or something... Anyway, the whole idea is that I think the battery should hold longer than 24h, with wifi and minimal usage. With this phone, you can barely achieve that...

If the initiator of this thread wants more battery life, he should reconsider.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] cirnocirno:
You can't think, ARGHHHHHHHHHHHH I am getting really annoyed what are you after???

Go google anything you will see all android phones have "****" battery life and sucks. Okay?

The companies don't careeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee about how good the battery are they just want to sell the device !
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] katu2006:
:)) Pathetic, just like the your comments...with absolutely no substance, what so ever. Do you even know what the topic is about? Have you ever heard of opinions or forums? :))
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] cirnocirno:
Yeah have read, and you seem to be funny too...

As you seen at the first posts, if you ever read this thread I answered this person about battery life and to be honest, even detailed information that I tried out because I wanted to be sure that it actually is decent. Now you seem to be quite funny guy, so do you know how phones actually work why the battery is drained and why certain amount of members here at the U8800 don't bother to answer this question?

That's because what can you expect when you put a lot of power hungry units to a device that uses an OS with minor power managing flaws, not so long battery life. As recent post here trying to explain "dumb"phones are the thing for people who wish to have long battery life. Why "dumb"phones; This name is rather rude for the phone as they actually have an OS running and they can handle most everyday tasks, however their OS is not fair enough advance, thus "giving" them the name dumbphone. I don't know how you could miss my posts from before but this question is rather stupid to ask over and over again.

tl;dr - Smartphones are not notorious for having long battery life. DEAL WITH IT.

[Desire General] Insayne84:
Hello,

I am running a Stock rooted rom at the moment. However, whenever I Skype and use it like a handset, the WiFi gets cut off (well, slowed to the extent that the connection fails). It does this regardless of my Sleep Policy I setup (I set it to Never).

This is really annoying to me... Thus I ask of you fellow Desire Owners, is there another ROM that would fix this bug? Or can I update the WiFi Module? What are my options here? I would like to keep SenseUI, or everything as-is, just remove the wifi-sleep bug :(
[Desire General] T-Rrexx:
In LeeDrOiD rom this feature works pretty well, I can guarantee that. The rom has sense.

Swyped from my HTC Desire with CM7.
[Desire General] Insayne84:
Could you lead me to a tutorial or guide how to apply it? I only used the unrevoked 3 thingy to root :D Thanks!

[HD2 General] chimpsinties:
This weekend I was driving along and my CoPilot stopped working. Then I noticed that a couple of other apps weren't working and that the camera said it wouldn't take photo's until I inserted the SD card. I've had an 8GB card in there for the last 18 months.

Taking the card out of the phone and putting it in the PC does nothing. The PC at first says the card needs formatting but if you say yes it just says, insert a card.

I took some pictures at a friends Stag Party and I really need to get these pics off the card. I don't care about anything else.

I've tried a few of these "recover your images from a corrupted or formatted card" programs but they all require the card to be visible to the PC for them to work.

Has anyone get any ideas? Please help me :(
[HD2 General] johnerz:
You could try a differnt card reader/different pc and hope that it works then, but tbo if its borked then with paying lots for data recovery, I'd say your out of luck :(
[HD2 General] chimpsinties:
Sadly, I think you might be right. Looks like that card has gone to silicone heaven to be with all the calculators. :(
[HD2 General] htccraze:
I would try every usb plug you have on your computer. i had the same problem and i kept at it. it took me several days to finally get it to work & to be honest im not sure why/how it did but i was thankful none the less.

i used this program & like i said i just kept trying. what worked 4 me was i held the card in the computer but only half way which the computer then was able to see the card. if you format the card you will lose everything on it so if you want pics off it & you format it you wont be able 2 recover them.
[HD2 General] chimpsinties:
Thanks for the advice I'll give it a shot.

I thought at least if I could get it formatted then I could use some picture recovery software to get the pics back. It's so frustrating because there are only about 10 pics that I'm even bothered about. Everything else it backed up :o
[HD2 General] htccraze:
hopefully that program will let you see that card, it did with mine eventhough though computer wouldnt. odd i know. i wouldnt apply or mess around to much with that program if you dont know what your doing because you can make it more difficult to regain your images. i gave the link 4 version 5 but i used version 6. i couldnt find it earlier 2 post, sorry. they do have a data recovery program that i used as well but ill have to hunt it down 1st & then i'll post the link.

i bought a hacked 16gb memory stick off ebay (!%$#@&$) that became corrupted and i was able to recover some of my files using the programs below. hope this will help you out.

MiniTool Partition Wizard Home Edition 6.0

MiniTool Power Data Recovery
[HD2 General] chimpsinties:
Thanks a lot man. I'd managed to find those from your first link. In fact, Partition Wizard actually suggests the 2nd program if the first one doesn't find anything :D

I've run Partition Wizard against it. It took all night after starting it at about 9pm it finished at 8am this morning. It thought my 8GB card was a 2TB drive but hey, at least it could see something which is more than any other tool.

I didn't find anything using that one but I'm going to try the Power Data Recovery tonight. Fingers crossed.

[EVO 4G General] I Am Marino:
I'll cut to the chase.

I'm on Verizon currently mulling a switch to Sprint as a money saver.

Strongly considering the Evo as I can get it for a penny on Amazon.

Owning an Incredible and a NookColor, I know just about everything I need to know about rooting, blah blah, etc.

Just one question, on Evo ROMs, is 4G actively working? Say CM7 for example?

and is the root process the same? Unrevoked or am I out of the loop?
[EVO 4G General] bjb_nyj101:
Yes, you can use unrevoked.

And yes, 4G works in cm7.
[EVO 4G General] aburgthing:
Ahh..not really. The latest Gingerbread update broke unrevoked. Currently there is no root exploit for the updated firmware. It's been that way for about a month. Many have confirmed that new Evo's are being shipped with 2.3.3 so until an exploit is found, if you get a new Evo you will not be able to root it.
[EVO 4G General] I Am Marino:
Is there progress on rooting the 2.3.3 EVOs?

I'm hoping by some means Amazon would ship a Froyo EVO.
[EVO 4G General] aburgthing:
From what I hear the unrevoked team is working on it, but no ETA and scant information has been revealed. I'm waiting on a root to be discovered as well so I can exchange mine due to a few bright spots on the screen, but they are tolerable vs. giving up my rooted phone.
[EVO 4G General] ckoadiyn:
little bit more info for you then what others gave trying to look out for XDA peeps

not that i am aware of due to the fact none of the HTC 2.3.3 phones have been hacked yet. Maybe you could sell your vzw phone and buy a rooted evo off here or ebay or maybe craigslist. If you do tho gotta get the number checked to make sure its able to be activated on sprint and not black listed. Or if you wanted to you could get the evo 3d (which there has been strides on is being worked on very diligently so that it can be rooted.) I know you probally dont want to spend 200 but if you ported your number before 7/23 you can still get 125 credit.

http://www.sprint.com/landings/portcredit/?ECID=vanity:switchtosprint

also i beleave sprint will buy your phone at the moment for 72 bucks

with their buy back program which would leave you with a while 3 dollars you would have to pay for the phone. BUT I would suggest you do this very very soon.! :D hope you go through with it and enjoy if you want to check out the evo 3d many top devs have moved and some will probally move sooner or later just about the funds.

https://secure2.sprintbuyback.com/c...onid=2BEA87BD9605B2DCB255C5F7903FCEE3.server1

let us know if you joned sprint back here in the evo forums hope this helps you out man!

(ps if you are a member of a credit union or AAA ask if they have any eligble discounts or for your work to reduce your bill)
[EVO 4G General] Rem3Dy:
Spend the extra money and buy the 3D. You will thank yourself in the long run.
[EVO 4G General] I Am Marino:
So I hear Sprint's network kinda blows, any info on this?

I know it's no Verizon but is it acceptable, gets the job done or downright miserable like AT&T?
[EVO 4G General] ckoadiyn:
I think it gets the job done but it is depends on your area also. I can watch netflix and tether and i have no complaints about it.
[EVO 4G General] ckoadiyn:
Also keep in mind you pay less so you Take hits in some areas lol.
[EVO 4G General] I Am Marino:
If I end up getting an Evo off of Wirefly or Radioshack, is it safe to assume it'll be updated to 2.3 and not rootable for the time being?
[EVO 4G General] teh roxxorz:
If you get an evo with 2.2, you can use unrevoked, if 2.3, there is no root for it yet and you'll be stuck. As for CM7, everything thing works, except MIUI, because it has no 4G. And I thought I was Marino. :(
[EVO 4G General] I Am Marino:
You may be Marino, but I am too. Ha.
[EVO 4G General] teh roxxorz:
Naw, its all you; and to your other question, you basically have a 50/50 chance getting a 2.3 evo.
[EVO 4G General] ckoadiyn:
Just get the 3d and use the port credit etc n go in to a retail Sprint store
[EVO 4G General] jgalan14:
I think you shouldn't cancel your Verizon plan just yet, the EVO is a great device.and probably one of the phones to have a lot development going on , but Sprint network might not be your cup of tea , I love my EVO even tho I trade it around for some other phoned in the past lol , but Verizon kick ass out of Sprint in las Vegas , specially in 4G. You just might want to get a thunderbolt for Verizon on Craigslist just make sure to meet the dude at the Verizon store to make sure is clean
[EVO 4G General] I Am Marino:
I'm not canceling anything yet.

I'm testing the service out for 14-30 days and I'll see if I like it.
[EVO 4G General] jgalan14:
Oh ok that's good , :)
[EVO 4G General] CDKJudoka:
Best Buy still have the Evo for free, and from what I have been told, they are all still FroYo. The two that my friend and I got from a BB here on LI were both FroYo and rootable.

Thanks

Thanks, I have this problem for 40 days (I spend many, many time looking for the solution), sometimes my SGS connect (I need to reeboot 1 to 3 times or more) and connect. When is connected I disconnect and try again and the same problem the PC dont recognize de SGS, but now I connect then disconnect, connect again and work. I hope that this solution work always. I hope, up to now work. I was looking for a solution all days, I saw this alternative, but it was difficult to do, but with the link all was very simple and the most important it work for me. Sorry for my english, and Thanks again:) I dont try in download mode, but i have an alternative to go to download if the SGS is connected. Carlos

But when I reboot the SGS the problem appears again I will continue with this issue. I dont know I am lost.
[Flipout and Charm General] bakerrev:
I've debranded a UK Orange Flipout and unlocked to use on Vodafone UK.

The mobile signal is terribly weak and spends more time with no bars that with. It makes the phone useless as a phone however great the design is.

Sitting next to another android phone on the same network the bars are almost full on the other phone - when showing nothing on the Flipout.

Does anyone else have this problem? Is there something I can do to re-configure the phone and make it work as a phone? I've had all the data settings from Vodafone reset for MMS and data etc.

If no answer it will have to go back to stock ROM and back to the shop. :(

Thanks.
[Flipout and Charm General] Astrowe:
Hey, I got the same problem. Had me temporarily switch back to Milestone 'cause Flipout wasn't able to even connect to the service..no signal at all. I noticed that Flipout has slow network acquiration compare to Milestone. But, I have to point out that I flashed it from stock to UK ROM without BLUR so it's more likely possible that something just went wrong. For now I blame the basebands and try to solve it that way..somehow. let me know if any news
[Flipout and Charm General] Astrowe:
ok, it was the baseband.. i changed it from what it was to this (attachment) and everything's fine.

you have to be rooted, and remount system as r/w

the original baseband files are located in /system/etc/motorola/bp_nvm_default

basically you need to replace this folder with the new one and set the same permissions as the original files had. i don't know if you know how so just for sure, here's the how-to

i suggest you doing this:

0]if you are not rooted, install Universal Androot and press Go Root, then reboot your phone

1]unrar the attachment to your phone's sdcard

2]boot up the phone, switch to airplane mode

3a]if you have Root Explorer, navigate to /system/etc and push remount as r/w

3b]if you don't have that, install Root Toolbox go to Mount-System Mount Options-Mount System R/W

4]fire up Terminal Emulator

5]enter those commands: (enter after each line)

su
cd /system/etc/motorola
cp -R /sdcard/bp_nvm_default bp_nvm_default_nw
cp -R bp_nvm_default /sdcard/bp_nvm_default_BACKUP
chmod 755 bp_nvm_default_nw
chown root.root bp_nvm_default_nw
cd bp_nvm_default_nw
chmod 644 *
chown root.root *
cd ..
rm -R bp_nvm_default
mv bp_nvm_default_nw bp_nvm_default
reboot

6]after the reboot, turn off flight mode, let the phone get registered to network and see what happens.. hope this will fix your problem.

it's a bit tricky, i actually had to reboot after mounting system to R/W and giving Superuser permissions and mount again because somehow it didn't work for the first time.. anyway, let me know if anything goes wrong
[Flipout and Charm General] bakerrev:
Thanks, that looks a bit technical but ill give it a go... thanks for info.
[Flipout and Charm General] bakerrev:
Well I gave this a go - and I kept getting permission denied. sounds like problem you had with the system RW refusing to allow a copy.

Anyhow I am hoping I might have fixed it by using this link

http://dext3r.komodin.org/

And there is a radio file you can install under Quick FAQ with different country baseband radio files. Might help someone else ...
[Flipout and Charm General] landry314:
it didnt work

well, i did everything as written except i used ES File Manager to mount the /system as R/W and when it came to:

cp -R bp_nvm_default /sdcard/bp_nvm_default_BACKUP

it said "cp: can't create symlink '/sdcard....': Operation not permitted" for every file so i just did it manually with ES File Manager... that is only a backup anyway and shouldnt affect anything.

it just doesnt work.

and why cant i just drop the baseband files in there with copy and paste? that didnt work either.

i need baseband files for T-Mobile on the US network for the Flipout. does anyone have any others i could try?

thanks!
