[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mschmitt01:
So I'm new to the to this phone and haven't had the luxury of playing with over/under-volting. I am coming from a Desire so please bare with me. I am running the 11.7.1 MIUI build with nemesis' new otb kernel with deep sleep fix. I have voltage control installed and understand how to make the changes. My issue is where to begin. Are there any basic guidelines to start with? Should I o/u-volt? How much for each step? I don't want to fry my phone and I know to each his own when settings are concerned. Can anyone help me? I am trying to get the longest battery life possible without sacrificing a ton of performance. Any help would be great.

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kidserious:
First of all, this belongs in the Q/A section so you know for next time. Now, on to your question. It sounds to me like you aren't too much interested in overclocking if you want battery life. So, I would try keeping your max speed at 1000 and start with a -50 UV for each step. See how that treats you and then go from there. Later on maybe you can further undervolt the 100-400 steps. I wouldn't UV the 800 and 1000 steps anymore than 50 though
[HTC Sensation] tony.wheeler:
Just orderded my Sensation and wondered if anyone knew of a micro USB plug for the handset that had a 90 deg bend in it? THis would mean when in my car mount the charging cable did not stick out so far but run down alongside the handset.

I am keen not to use an adaptor but have a continuous cable to the car charger.
[HTC Sensation] mollybc:
I know you said you did not want to use an adapter, but I ended up going with the following b/c it was cheap and works perfectly:

Motorola Micro USB Right Angle Adapter skn6258 from Cellfreeks.

It's small and clicks in nice and snugly and all the right angle cords I could find had the angle going the wrong direction with the cable running toward the top of the phone. Hope this helps :D
[HTC Sensation] The_Biz:
I had 2 of them I had for my BlackBerry a while ago. I kept them and now use them for the sensation. They're not the best, but they do work pretty well.
[HTC Sensation] tony.wheeler:
Thanks - I will order one of them and see how it goes. My preference is certainly for one long cable without the adapter to avoid bulk. In case any UK based people want one I found the mentioned Motorola adaptor here: http://www.fommy.co.uk/view-full-page.asp?tabletmake=LG&tabletmodel=LG+Optimus+Pad&skuno=82311 at £4.49

90Deg bend Micro USB Cable - Amazon

Tony - I know my reply is a little late, but I have purchased this type of Micro USB cable on Amazon. Search for Micro USB Angle and you will get plenty of hits. startech.com makes a good one in three different cable lengths, both right angle and left angle.

UUSBHAUB1RA - 1 Foot Right Angle

UUSBHAUB3RA - 3 Foot Right Angle

UUSBHAUB6RA - 6 Foot Right Angle

UUSBHAUB1LA - 1 Foot Left Angle

UUSBHAUB3LA - 3 Foot Left Angle

UUSBHAUB6LA - 6 Foot Left Angle
[HTC Sensation] tony.wheeler:
Thanks Vegasjoe, I ordered one of these from an E-bay seller. Should keep the cable alongside the hadset when mounted in the windscreen holder - that will look tidier than the current cable sticking out at 90deg to the handset.
[HTC Sensation] glenwild:
Thanks, Vegasjoe for the right angle cable tip! I am ordering up a few for home, work and the car.

Nope.

They use two totally different theming engines so the only way would be to port it to cm7. Cm7's theme engine is a b*tch compared to the one for MIUI though.

Is there a setting to reduce the red eyes? Got red eyes on pictures taken indoor at night.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonny68:
Yes this would be useful to know.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sleepycat3:
Not with the stock camera app. I don't see a red-eye reduction mode in the flash settings. One way to overcome red eye is to have the flash on for longer before the picture is taken.

Even when i had my HD2 there are various camera apps on the marlet but it doesn't get rid of the red aye, is there some other app where you can get rid the red eye?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wacky2bakky:
I am currently running the Evil Fascinate 3.6 Rom. With the official ED04 radio. Really havent had many missed calls issues but seem to not get the best signal and seem to lose gps location sometimes. Anyone recommend a better radio i should flash through ODIN to help for that and maybe anything else?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schu9120:
That's my golden question too... I have tried every modem from ec01 to ed04 (and all versions in between) and now ec09. I seem to miss about 1 or 2 calls a week on all of them with the same data and gps performance. So, for my phone, there doesn't appear to be any noticeable differences. But when you look around you will notice some people getting differing results.

I suggest giving each modem a test drive to see how your phone reacts. Good luck :-)

[Motorola Droid X2] jmaddox31:
Thinking about giving up my X2 and getting a 4G or going to another carrier all together. Gimme a reason not to.
[Motorola Droid X2] slowz3r:
A. This is a development section

B. If you need someone to tell you why you should or shouldnt keep your phone then you obviously really dont like it enough to make that decision for yourself, so just lose it
[Motorola Droid X2] GulMiguel:
Don't be so harsh on the guy. I sympathize with his pain. Yes this is a development section. However, no one seems to be doing any developing. If they are, they're keeping it a big secret. All the major devs I know that are usually working on this stuff are still very obsessed with the Charge and the soon to be released Bionic. No one seems to want to step up and take DX2 on. I didn't have a choice in getting a DX2. My DX broke and this is what the insurance sent. I thought it was a great thing until I saw that no one is doing anything on it.

Yes, his post probably should go in another area. However, let's try to keep this thing like family. When I came with noob questions, people weren't chastising me. When I fell for the XOOM hype, and didn't know if I should keep it, people here shared their thoughts on the subject. That was one of the reasons I came to love XDA - they didn't judge me, but rather found ways to relate what I was going through. Even in this ROMless DX2 hell that we find ourselves in, I still love my XDA family. Let's try to help the guy and not condescend to him.

Take care and stay blessed :)

droid x2 oc kernels

Has anyone figured out anything on this pos Droid x2. I'm starting to get irritated this phone blows unless it gets overclocked.
[Motorola Droid X2] hackthis02:
Move it or close it, Mr. Clown.
[Motorola Droid X2] jmaddox31:
Yes, I'm well aware this a development forum. I'm not by any means new. I'm rooted, supercharged with V6 and running a few different launchers to make respond quicker but with that being said, its at the end of its rope. By asking for a reason not to; I was implying for some developers to step up to the plate for a device that has potential.
[Motorola Droid X2] jmaddox31:
Hey kizzy,

It doesn't blow it just hasn't been nurtured as much. The supercharger script helps a lot and rooted apps work, but it leaves a lot to be desired.
[Motorola Droid X2] slowz3r:
not going to lie, the DX2 wasnt my first choice of phones to get but because the SGS2 isnout available yet it was just the best option, and yea no dev community makes me sad :(
[Motorola Droid X2] jmaddox31:
Yeah the dev community is disappointing. And they're a bit slow on the draw.

I may be looking at the Charge or Bolt before 7/7/11 to stay grandfathered.
[Motorola Droid X2] SwiftLegend:
Yeah I'm with you buddy. I'm planning on selling this for either the Thunderbolt or Bionic. I don't like the design of the Charge even though it is a great phone. Also depends on if the Bionic will have a locked bootloader. If it does, I'm going with the Thunderbolt. Hopefully Wirefly still sells it for $199 for an upgrade in August :)

But don't get me wrong, this is a great device. I haven't had any lag or problems, and I actually like the new MotoBlur. If there was more development on this I'd definitely keep it, but I miss flashing CM7 and other roms every night.

Question: If I have unlimited 3g now, will I still be able to get unlimited 4g come August once Verizon implements their tiered plans? I really hope so, or else I'll be using 3g for as long as I'm with Verizon.
[Motorola Droid X2] kevinniven:
Me too

Anyone want mine $200
[Motorola Droid X2] jmaddox31:
Swift,

If you have unlimited data now, you're grandfathered in UNLESS or UNTIL you switch phones, plans or upgrade after 7/711. Any changes after that date will force you to take the new tiered pricing.

It may suck. I use every bit of 2gb a month if not more. $50 a month for 5gb make hurt my pocket too much. But that's a topic for another forum.
[Motorola Droid X2] onemotodroid:
i will be keeping the x2

Motorola will be releasing GB soon and this phone will be solid

2.2 really does nothing for this hardware
[Motorola Droid X2] GulMiguel:
Actually, the one thing that it does keep doing is rebooting without provocation. It's gotten to be quite annoying. Every phone that I have received from Asurion does it, so I'm beginning to think this is some sort of FroYo/hardware complication. (No I have no evidence to support that theory.) Some of you have mentioned using the new supercharger script. Does it help with this rebooting problem or will I just be putting myself deeper into a hole?
[Motorola Droid X2] SwiftLegend:
Seriously? That's just plain dumb if you ask me. I don't even understand why Verizon is doing this tiered crap. This is probably why when I first asked for the Thunderbolt, the rep kept on trying to dissuade me from getting it.

This really makes me want to switch to Sprint, or even AT&T once they set up their LTE network. Whatever carrier gets the SGII is where I'm going -.-
[Motorola Droid X2] three west:
fully stock here so far, only had it about a week, but no random reboots.

The only problem was that the first morning I set the alarm the phone was locked up and the alarm didn't go off. I had to pull the battery to get it to reset. Trouble free other than that.

[HTC EVO 3D] Seanc13:
I have the otterbox defender, and I've noticed when i open the camera and use it for 3D pictures, there seems to be a ghost of whatever I'm looking at, almost like the lenses are trying to create a side by side pic. Anyone else noticing anything like this?
[HTC EVO 3D] Seanc13:
No one?
[HTC EVO 3D] vboyz103:
You have to find the right viewing angle to see the 3D effect...I recommend viewing a 3D movie to get used to it first..cuz the 3D camera and the pics sometimes are shot in lower quality, therefore, 3D is not revealing as the movies.
[HTC EVO 3D] Seanc13:
I could see them just fine without the case, and still cancers my old ones fine, its just whatever new ones I take
[HTC EVO 3D] The Dark Knight Patriot:
Hmmmm, I've seen some ghosting, but I've always figured that it's normal. Depending upon the lighting, angle, and distance from object, the ghosting can be either very miniscule, or rather pronounced. As with any camera, it takes some experience to get down the right handling angles for the lenses given any particular situation. Keep playing around with the camera some, and then let us know how it goes. Try multiple shots from different angles with different settings for the same scene, and then see if you notice any differences.

FYI- I have the case you speak of, and sometimes I can see slight ghosting, others times I don't. If I take a really whacked out angle photo with bad lighting, from far too close a distance, then the ghosting is VERY pronounced. Also, the more complicated the image (ie, Taking a picture from inside a room, looking out through windows at a deck backed by trees, with sunlight streaming through), then the more likely some ghosting will be IME. However, in general outdoor daylight, with a simple object of focus (Like my dog laying down on the grass), I don't really notice it. Also, motion plays a role in it too.

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ktimque:
Hello all,

I have an issue with my Nook Color, which I attempted to root today, following the instructions found at InspiredGeek. (Can't post link) [Googled "install apks on nook color 1.2", should be in top 5 results, as "How to Root/Unlock Nook Color 1.2"].

I purchased a 2GB Micro SD Card, and flashed CWM to it and all, but when putting it in the NookColor and rebooting, the device gets stuck at the "Loading" screen, and I never reach the menu.

I followed all instructions, except for wiping at the beginning, since the Nook was already version 1.2. Is that the problem? Or is it something else?

Thank you very much in advance.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] primeboss:
I find that setting setCPU to 450 mhz (900 mhz because of the dual core) the phone works perfectly for my day to day use.

Would underclocking to 450 mhz from 1000 mhz save a lot of battery, or the process of underclocking would take battery to make it equivalent to leaving regular clock.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Clienterror:
Not really sure. I've had it set so it goes to 400mhz when the screens off since I had it. I'm sure it helps a little but i doubt it's going to make you get as extra day of battery or anything
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wond3r:
I have to intervene here. When you set it to 450 its not 900 because of the dual core. the cores dont add up speeds.

The Atrix doesnt have a 2ghz processor because its 1ghz but two cores.

But to answer your question - yes you would save battery, but the phone would be very slow because you would be at 450 (not 900 or 1ghz)
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xepter:
i have mine set at 600mhz and its fine through the day though i dont do it for battery but to keep it nice and cool(that 1ghz makes it 60C+ easy) but i guess it helps
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] palmboy5:
You have to consider that a lower clock speed means that the CPU must process things for a longer period of time. Sure at a lower speed it will process using less power but the longer period of time it needs to process may mean that the total power consumption is still the same or even higher since the CPU still consumes power simply by being turned on.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vangelis13:
+ 1. I'm starting to believe that even the screen-off profile (I have it set on the lowest) has a negative effect on the battery if you use your phone a lot and keep turning the screen back on all the time! Am turning it off now to try..

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeeJay3800:
Is it the buttons on the bottom that are squeaking? If so, that seems to be kind of a common problem on this phone. My trackpad is quiet, but the other four buttons and very loud. I wouldn't describe the sound as a squeak, but instead as an excessively loud click (compared to my friend's plum MT4G which has very quiet and easy-to-push buttons). I never complained to T-Mobile about it though, since I have the good screen and good eMMC.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DADDYDC650:
I've gone through about 5+ MT4G's. They all had some sort of issue. I guess the QC wasn't that good with this phone. I've gotten to the point where I just don't care anymore. As long as it functions correctly and doesn't look like total crap. Add to the fact that there's a good chance that the phone will eventually get scratched/dinged up. Glad I got insurance.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeeJay3800:
That's pretty much my attitude too. I still take care of it, and by some people's standards I "baby it", but the quirks and obvious manufacturing flaws I just ignore now. The thing is, although some HTC phones have had problems (like the Incredible screens changing part way through production), the MT4G was a complete flop in the quality department. I wonder why.

Yeah I asked the HTC rep outright, "What the hell is going on with your quality control? I'm not mad so much as puzzled."

Why not just download Calibre to your PC and let it manage your books. Does all the translations for you
[Nook Color General] nicbennett:
Seconded. Converting Mobi to epub is a snap in calibre, and then you can choose your own e-reader. I recommend Aldiko, personally. It has a lot going for it over the nook app.

This may be hard to believe but not everyone has a PC in front of them 24/7.

Cool Reader is very good for mobi files.
[Nook Color General] nicbennett:
You don't have to have a pc in front of you all the time....just long enough to convert your existing mobi files. Takes about 30 seconds each. Thus the use of the word CONVERT, rather than READ.

[Nook Color General] croques:
DaoCaoXie Reader claims to handle both epub and mobi formats although I use Calibre and have never needed to test the mobi functionality.

I have to say I've tried all the eReaders going on Android and like DaoCaoXie Reader the best. It has its limitations; searching is non-existent and it can import only 80 books. But for easy reading with nice page transitions; full brightness and font control I like this one a lot.

[edit] I've just looked up info on DaoCaoXie Reader and it seems that automatic import is limited to 80 books, not the whole library.[/edit]
[Nook Color General] yelloguy:
I tried almost all the readers before settling for FBReader. It says it supports mobi but I always use ePub. For me it was the easiest to use and is most flexible. The default formatting wasn't great but I could quickly change the font, line spacing and margins to get it to look exactly how I liked. For what I like it beats every reader software in my book, including the Nook Color stock reader.

No affiliations, just a satisfied user.
