Hi Guys,

While we patiently wait for S-OFF and Perm Root, I thought we should all get together and create "wish list".

(While I know, understand and appreciate the fact that most of our chefs cook for themselves and generously share it with us here on XDA, but I thought that there is no harm creating a wishlist:))

So, starting now :)

- The icons on the lockscreen to be more towards the middle, as the way they are now, i have easy access to them while removing the phone from my pocket :P

- A mod so we can have separate wallpapers for home and lockscreen,

- A mod so we may be able to delete additional pages, as some of us dont require 7.

- Ofcourse, most of us need speed and battery enhancement :) I think that could be done with the kernel optimisation.

(I intend to keep updating this post and adding more as and when fellow members put in their "wishes" - son any chefs interested can go thru these.)

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treadpd:
I am trying to update the hboot drivers but I cannot find the Android 1.0 folder. My phone is not showing up under the 'other devices' sub-category either.

I have found the 2 hard drives (internal phone storage and SD storage) under the 'Disk Drive' sub-category, as well as a title of 'HTC Android Phone USB Device' under the 'DVD/CD-Rom' sub-category. I want to make sure that I am updating the correct area. So which should I update in order to make sure that the driver is installed properly.

Sorry if this is a stupid question...I am new to the rooting scene.

EDIT: Please IGNORE...got reading a bit too fast. My apologies - please close thread

There seems to be a larger problem with it that is affecting the majority of us 3vo owners. Different results with different fixes.

[HTC EVO 3D] blacksuntzu:
Had the same problem but fixed it by installing the latest RUU (1.13.xxx) I think from the development section. I figured it was best to install a fresh copy of software instead of keeping the buggy patched software. My albums now load and display all pictures with no flicking. It is annoying to set everything back up but at least your apps will come back on their own.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] pjgowtham:
CAN anyone tell me which is the best rom for samsung galaxy ace??

what is your battery life

Please comment on this...

ace only gets 12hrs battery life.......plz help with this

Indian galaxy ace....
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Mr.Sanju:
12 hrs is way too less...

if u are on stock 2.2.1, i would recomend to flash to something new 2.3.+

i haven't tried all the available roms, so can't comment on the other roms.. but i m currently using 2.3.4 stock and battery life is more than 30 hrs... with all day edge connected , atleast 20 minutes of phone talktime.. an hr of surfing.. music + games + chatting etc,,, so all together i m quite happy wid my battery of the phone compared to my usage...

p;s flashing your phones to new firmware can void your warranty..

pps; if u have an extensive talktime usage...then android is of no use... the battery dosen't last much on any model.. :mad::mad:
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] felixx.mo:
Upgrading to original 2.3.4 gingerbread will NOT void your warranty, since you don't root the phone and therefore don't break any "rules".

And I would also recommend upgrading to 2.3.4 because it's easy to upgrade, there's no risk in losing warranty and I usually go for 2 days without charging with couple of hours of gaming, music and texting
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Mr.Sanju:
thnx, didn't knew about that, was always under impression flashing voids warranty.. :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] FMAranda:
30 hours? Really? You must be a god or have power on your hands, because, I can't get more than 20hrs with my Ace.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] fla.sh:
Maybe calibrating your battery can improve battery life... Just root your phone then download battery calibrator app from the market.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] viktorlj:
I can empty battery in one day, and also in 3 days :-)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] adil_:
Which firmware are you using?

Is there any app that you are using to improve battery life..?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] hassaan123:
Coderom is best so far. And i get 15 hourz max out of my ace
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] viktorlj:
I use 2.3.4 KPH and no other app to improve battery life. This is my best time, but overall, I charge Ace every 2 days, sometimes every day.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] shotgun32:
Lol ace community is very young :D

All you guys need is a developer to build custom kernel and tweaks.

My phone Optimus one with stock rom and stock kernel battery life is about 12 hours, but with custom roms and great custom kernel, my battery improved from 12 hrs to 2-3 days with daily use.

So what im saying is you guys need a DEV ;)
[HTC EVO 3D] hypersonicx:
Just had to say. I had a blast with the E3D at our family party. Took great pics in 2D and 3D. Even got good 3D of fireworks during the day and at night.

Paid $400 for my Evo 3D "gave my Epic to my girl" and was definitely worth the money. The 3D cameras + great battery + 720 video record at good frame rate + dual cores. Definitely put the phone to the test today and it passed.

Got enough 3D footage to keep me and the family and friends entertained for a while.
[HTC EVO 3D] buck1623:
I was impressed too man.... And at the end of all that, I still had more then half my battery for the hour drive home...

My 3D video was with fireworks at lake Eola if your familiar with Orlando. So large scale fireworks. It would actually show doubles right next to each other. They probably just couldn't focus because it was dark. I did do 2D as well so I will post the 3D and the 2D on youtube. Not exactly sure how I will do 3D on yourtube yet, as I never did it before but I will look into it.

Having Same Issue

Hi Guys, please can someone help, this has happened from the time i updated to NoDo, on the previous release the applications install fine. what i did notice is that after a while if u leave the market place on screen, it installs via 3G but this is very random and doesnt happen all the time.
[7 Mozart General] ioannis66:
One solution would be to hard reset, sign in to your live account that you use right now and re-download the apps.

While in the marketplace, i always disable my mobile network data usage and i enable only the wifi, making sure that everything gets downloaded via my wireless network.
[7 Mozart General] jeromenaicker@live.co.za:
i did do a hard reset, the apps just sit there to be downloaded, you can retry till you blue in the face it does the same thing, it did install over 3G but not wifi, but now its not even installing via either.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] lanwarrior:
I am not sure if this is Honeycomb issue or the Asus Eee issue, but in the Asus Eee, my SD card is called /Removable but the internal memory is labeled /Sdcard

This is creating havoc on almost ALL APPS that needs to install LARGE data to SD Card. For example:

- Games: Galaxy Force II, which requires more than 250Mb, by default will download and install the data to the internal memory because it was "looking" for /sdcard. I simply CANNOT MOVE the app to /Removable because the app will then complaint nothing has been downloaded (couldn't find the data in /sdcard, even though it exists but just in /Removable)

- Music: I use iSyncr, which also looks for /sdcard and have the some problem as the above.

- TitaniumBackup: this is the BIGGEST PROBLEM - TB only looks for /sdcard. In TB preferences, I CANNOT change the backup path to /Removable. It insist on /sdcard only. So if my Asus goes kaput, my data is host. I can backup the data and THEN move the files to /Removable, but that means I have to do that EVERYTIME I do backup and even with automatic backup, I have to remind myself to move the backup files MANUALLY to /Removable.

So any apps that requires installation to SD card will look for /sdcard and nothing else.

Anything else I can do about this? My internal memory (that is, /sdcard), is getting filled up really quickly.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] n-j-f:
I won't comment on the rest as I am not an expert in mount points but, fortunately, you are wrong with regard to TB. When you go into preferences in TB, it tries to detect the backup folder. Don't press Use the current folder or Cancel. Just press the backup key and you can navigate to where you want. Mine is Removable/MicroSD/TB.

I guess we have to wait for some apps to be rewritten for HC.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] foxmeister:
It's not a Honeycomb problem per se, because vanilla Honeycomb doesn't support SD cards at all. Where a tablet has enabled SD card support, it is vendor specific.

W.r.t to other issues, the post here may help.

Regards,

Dave
[Eee Pad Transformer General] lanwarrior:
I don't see the "backup" key to change the directory. What I have is shown below.

If I click "Detect", it search the memory and said "No backup found".
[Eee Pad Transformer General] david279:
Press the back button to go back thru folders.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ewitte:

Apologies, I should have said the squiggly back (not backup) button when on the screen in your picture. The one on the bottom left of the picture.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] larryk:
Not "backup" as in data backup, the backup key in the lower left corner of the TF, (backup one level)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] lanwarrior:
This works great! Thanks to all!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] hyperxguy:
I think -sooner or later- apps will be updated to take advantage of the external memory storage. I have to hunt for those apps:

* Ebooks: I dropped Alkido for Moon Reader. MoonReader can access the microSD and doesnot import the actual files onto the \SDCARD. I have quite a lot of ebooks.

* Stock Music & Gallery (mobo player also) can access my pics/videos/music on the microSD (tons of MP3s and MP4s)

I have a 32GB microSD almost filled up.

I have a ship-load of games/apps which have data on \SDCARD but they still

can't fill it up yet (~8GB available). So I have no worry about the internal storage. I actually don't need/use that much games/apps.

by the way, I have a 16GB TF with no Dock.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] movelbit:
I also HATE to have MicroSD folder outside /sdcard folder.

So, That has an easy fix:

Edit /system/etc/vold.fstab

Replace this line:

dev_mount microsd /Removable/MicroSD auto /devices/platform/sdhci-tegra.2/mmc_host/mmc1

With this line (as an example):

dev_mount microsd /sdcard/_MicroSD auto /devices/platform/sdhci-tegra.2/mmc_host/mmc1

Reboot your TF01, and you're done!

EDIT: You could, if you like, to do the same thing on SD card on the dock, and USB devices. Just follow same steps on other lines inside /system/etc/vold.fstab

I used the folder name _MicroSD with the "_" char, since I want it to apear on first lines of Root Explorer. Use any other name you like!

I know this may not be what you are looking for, but I think this is the right thread to share!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Dorkington:
With at least 16gb storage, I don't see an issue with having apps use internal memory, and I'll store my media on the mSD card (or even an extra SD card in the dock).
[Eee Pad Transformer General] darkonex:
agreed

[Eee Pad Transformer General] rtadams89:
Might check out what I did here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=15846640&postcount=44

I didn't bother changing the mount points, but rather "redirected" specific folders inside /sdcard to the same folders inside /removable/MicroSD.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] deadman3000:
When I had to RMA my tab I did a TB to SD card. When I got it back I tried to restore my previously installed apps which I had to find using restore and browse for the backups. However although it listed them after doing that in the restore section it had NO option to restore the apps. Even though it was listing them. I have since had to reinstall all my apps manually. and have given up on TB. I just do a Nandroid backup now for emergencies.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] lacrossev:
was totally wracking my brain trying to figure out how to change the mount paths as some programs can't go high enough in the directory structure to switch over to /removable, or in the case of diceplayer you have to specify the path each time you want to browse from sd or internal. Its nice to have them all under /sdcard, thanks a bunch for the solution.
[HTC EVO 3D] Eric1985:
I'm on my 2nd EVO 3d I love it but having the same problem. Both times I got Amazon app store downloaded then installed plus I installed a few of my free apps I got. It downloads fine but now once I try to install anything it won't let me select install just the cancel button. It's not grayed out or nothing. I have the non market box checked obviously cuz I installed other stuff. Both phones worked fine for about 2 days then stopped. My first once i had tunein radio installed and deleted it and try to reinstall it just to see and nope couldn't get it. Any help I would really appreciate it
[HTC EVO 3D] jokester902:
I also have this problem using the amazon appstore, i can download them but cant install them
[HTC EVO 3D] Eric1985:
I figured out a solution but it sucks. I googled it and someone with a Nexus S was having the same problem and he eventually found out that Screen Filter was the cause. I had it downloaded on both phones I deleted it last night and now I can install non market apps wallpaper anything. Kinda sucks and annoying now without the Screen Filter app tho that that the bottom 4 lights are always on now

Dropped it in toilet drunk, got it out. Noticibly slower, many things FC, some keys don't work.

Already have 2 insurance claims this year, can't get a replacement that way. How can they tell it's water damaged? I noticed a pink sticker thing on the battery, is this some sort of water damage indicator? I have a spare battery if thats the only thing that would alert the techs to this being my fault.

If I took it in with a different battery after odinging to stock would they just think it crapped out on me due to no responsibilty of my own?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] duce102:

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnCorleone:
Me as well. Someone dropped theirs in a pot of Tomato Soup and it still worked. If you havent , let it dry without battery,back cover, also remove SD. You may get lucky and have a full functioning phone again. If that doesn't work, try saying you work construction and phone got damp from being in your pocket while working. My touchscreen broke and I took it to get repaired. At first the tech said I was screwed because of a hairline crack in the plastic around the screen. I explained that it failed before that. So, I was extra friendly. I started talking about upcoming phones,etc. Well, he ended up giving,me a new screen, keyboard, back cover. Only my motherboard was original. Paid nothing. If you don't have insurance, be cool and don't get upset. I bet $35 gets you a new whatever needs to be replaced...maybe some extras like I did
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Skimp Killah:
I think it will dry out, it was running fine for a bit, all keys working, not going slow, then it started going slow and a few keys stopped working. Decided to just go ahead and get the nexus s, CM7, oh yeah...

Pulled it out, set it next to a little portable heater for a few hours and to my astonishment it still worked perfectly. Some water must have gotten in the screen as it is a little blury in a small spot but other than that I'm still using it like it's new.
