[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fogamz:
Thanks K J Rad,

Yes, I've tried cod triple red unplugging the batteries

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

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1118087

all the night and still no change.

The screen stays with the birds logo and with the two sentences (... booting recovery kernel image), no black screen as described in NVFlash procedure, and my PC doesn't recognise the USB device (not listed with lsusb in Ubuntu and no identification in windows), so I can't nvflash.

I'm going to try to drain the batteries but it seems that the kernel image is corrupted and the sw is not reseted when power off.

Hard case?

Many thanks

Holy cow, man, that's some effort there for your wife. If it were me, I'd say "screw you, wife, here's a paperweight. Try to make it work since I screwed it up." :D

I'm in NNJ. Here, Captivates and Vibrants run from $50-$150. Below $100 will probably have a slightly cracked screen. Around $150 will be like new, and probably have a case and screen protector.

$180 or more is just too much for these phones.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LowFatBlood:
Hello everyone. I am new to android and rooting ans these forums. Just bought a thunderbolt about a month ago and absolutely loving it. Being an iPhone jailbreaker, I immediately rooted my thunderbolt. So I've been playing around for the past few months and settled on cm7.

My problem is with lockscreen lag. When I click the lock button from screen on, the screen just very slowly dims out, much slower than when I ran stock or das bamf. Worse is that when I click the lock button from the blank screen soon after locking, it first shows what was on the screen for a second or two, then goes to the lockscreen. If I click the lock button from a black screen that has been locked for awhile, it slowly fades on before I can unlock it.

This is very annoying because I often lock then decide to unlock, and between the lock lag and unlock lag, I have to wait some 3 seconds. Dad bamf, stock, and omfgb all had very good lockscreen reaction time with no lag.

On the mr1 radio, cm7 rc0.6, tried rc1.1, same problem. Under timeout settings before screen goes to lock, I have both set to immediate. Furthermore I tried doing a complete wipe, dalvic, data, format system, reset battery, everything.

Is this normal or just my thunderbolt, any suggestions how to fix it?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inexplicability:
Yeah, I had this same problem, but then I turned on the option for the tv animation on Device awake and it went away. It seemed much snappier.

Go to Settings > CyanogenMod Settings > Display > Screen-on Animation
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yareally:
Lag is probably from the cpu not kicking up to a faster speed in time to deal with the animation. Enabling that extra animation you mentioned most likely just gives it a little more time to kick up the cpu enough to stop the lockscreen itself from lagging.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inexplicability:
Yeah this is what I was thinking. So the animation is pretty much just a placeholder or something to look at (it still seems snappy with the animation on) until the CPU kicks in.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LowFatBlood:
Yareally, so do you get this problem as well? How would you suggest I fix it? I am running imoseyon's lean minimalist kernel for cm7, its running at the "normal setting" which is undervoltes then overclocked to 1.41ghz. I've tried all the governors for it ondemandx, interactivex, smartass, all the same problem. Admittedly I haven't tried the stock kernel with "performance" governor. But I'm sure there are many people who use power saving governors who do not have to contend with this issue?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yareally:
It's an issue with the kernel/kernel governor most likely and most of the kernels I believe for AOSP and GB Sense are based on Imoseyon's which from being on BAMF 2.x and CM that it's not the ROM's doing. The threshold for the cpu to raise the clockspeed on the initial wake of the lockscreen by default isn't enough to kick it up from 245mhz.

Pretty sure this issue has been around for quite a while, just most people (including myself) most likely figure the amount of effort to fix it would be more than the annoyance. Setting a profile to keep the min speed on screen off to 384mhz or whatever comes after 245 on the toggle scale would probably fix it, but obviously raise your clockspeed some. It could also be the undervolting while the screen is off is too low as well and so it causes it to lock up somewhat while the voltage rates go up a bit.

If someone hasn't mentioned it to Imoseyon or looked through the long thread of his Sense/CM kernel, then I would recommend doing that. I recommend reading first though. I've only tried his kernel and Nerozehl's but I know Nerozehl's was a fork of it and has the same issue. The governor settings are just a pain to deal with and it's probably something Imoseyon is already aware of, but just hasn't fixed it yet.

If you want to try a quick fix (for lag), use ondemandx and not the other governors. That might fix it right away.

The lockscreen taking a second to kick in though I think is a CM problem that will just get worked out eventually.

I have this too on the liquid aosp rom. I figured it was rom related because no kernel fixes it. I hope this gets fixed.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yareally:
RC 1.5 is very snappy and seems to have fixed all the issues of lag. I would recommend trying that before anything else. I am not sure slayher updated it here yet, but if it's not, it's also on rootzwiki.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnrexb:

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 8ax:
As I'm experiencing major battery drainage even after calibrating the battery on my i9000 using Darky 10.1 Extreme Edition (DarkCore 2.4, JVO baseband), I decided to go with MIUI 3.0.

I'm kinda a noob when it comes to flashing, so I have one question.

Is there any difference between flashing MIUI from the stock ROM and flashing from Darky 10.1EE.

I don't want to brick my device (yet :p) so any help would be appreciated.

EDIT: I surf about 45mins on HSDPA, play games for 45mins, surf 45mins on WiFi, auto brightness. I expect the battery to last at least 20 hours.

It doesen't matter because you will downgrade your rom via odin when you flash froyo from the manual. Just follow the exact steps and you will not encounter any problems.

[HTC EVO 3D] PaulB007:
Everytime I reset the phone it powers down but will not reboot unless I press the power button again, I have factory reset 3 times. Does this warrant a replacement phone?
[HTC EVO 3D] pstevep:
are you saying that when you tell the phone to restart that it wont boot back up with out the power button??:confused:
[HTC EVO 3D] PaulB007:
Yes that's exactly right.
[HTC EVO 3D] pstevep:
you may try a factory reset.. and if that doesnt work, then take it to sprint and see what they say.. it should restart when you tell it to restart..

this may be a stupid question, but are you giving it enough time to restart, and it just happens to restart when you hit the button?? (no insult to your intelligence, i sometimes get impatient when waiting for my phone to resart)..
[HTC EVO 3D] PaulB007:
I thought I might have not been leaving it enough time too but I waited about 20 seconds and nothing happened. I did factory reset, it seems to work every so often but the last few reboots it wouldn't reset.
[HTC EVO 3D] pstevep:
you amy have them look at it.. i dont know that its a known problem, i dont restart my phone enough for it to matter to me.. but i do know that the 3d doesnt totally turn itself off either when you turn it off, it makes it sleep (just a deeper sleep), there is a setting for fastboot in settings under power.. try unchecking that box and see if that helps at all..
[HTC EVO 3D] PaulB007:
Yeah I always turn off fastboot since I like to start with a fresh amount of RAM daily. I notice when I slowly go through the reboot prompts it restarts fine, but when I rush through them it refuses to boot on its own. totally bizarre.
[HTC EVO 3D] pstevep:
lol.. well slow down a little bit.. dont be in such a hurry..jk
[HTC EVO 3D] neodarksaver:
same problem here. reboot would shut the phone down without the booting afterwards on my phone
[HTC EVO 3D] Rippley05:
Same thing here. The reboot option just doesn't work and I'm not about to factory reset to see if it helps lol.

Also had a random reboot today while using the calculator
[HTC EVO 3D] mikeyxda:
The numbers on the calculator buttons are so fat, they probably leaked off the sides of the button and into the ROM, causing a crash. :D

.

This may not work for the US View as I think It's a pure data account, and has prob been done by others already but for the benefit of all!

Just place your Flyers SIM card in a phone, then set all calls to be redirected to your mobile number. Usually under settings, phone calls (different on all phones).

If you can't set 'All calls' to redirect to your phone, just select all others and should be OK.

This gets around someone calling back on your SMS.

Simple!

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] MarcAntonyy:
I thought so as well at first, but I have the Transformer weather widget and its not as small and compact as his in the screenshot. So unless he found a way to resize - thats something different.

I'm curious as well what those widgets are.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] danielsjam:
These are from the Asus transformer. You can find them in the apps and themes section. I can upload the wallpaper, I think it is Vancouver.

Install the weather app as you would normally do. I used rootexplorer to make a backup of /system/app/DeskClock.apk and copied the new deskclock.apk into the same dir. The picture may not cover the entire screen in portrait mode.

scrollable, no scroll or exact?!

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] eddieg1818:
I just select no scroll so the entire wallpaper appears and is not cropped. Scrollable will crop the image and reduce resolution. I believe exact is what you may have selected if a small version of the wp appears in lieu of full screen. Unfortunately i am having some issues with no scroll function, which i mentioned above. Some reviews of the app indicate similar issues.

I have tried every setting, tried adjusting the slide,and still it blows up the wallpaper. Unless someone decides to share what they're doing to make it work right I recommend using multi picture live wallpaper.

Is there a way to change the default sound to something other then the pre-loaded HTC sounds? I was able to change the phone ringtone to a song on my sd card. When going to settings, phone ringtone there is a new ringtone button which let me choose whatever I want but when I go to the default sounds I do not have that option. The only option I get is, get more, which takes me to the HTC hub. I tried ringdroid and made a ringtone but it don't show up. I also installed tone picker but it doesn't show up either. Another strange thing is, I am using handcent and have a mp3 selected within handcent but when I get a text it uses the default notification instead. Anyone else having this problem?
[HTC EVO 3D] aronslusa:
I had similar issues. I used HTC Hub to download a new ringtone package, and found out that it just over writes everything I may have had selected.

I've had to go in and redo my ringtone and message notifications a few times, mostly after I hook it up and enable SD storage on the computer.

If I have someone call or send a text message while its hooked up as storage, it changes EVERYTHING back on mine to the stock sound settings.

Ok what i did with mine was use astro file manager to take whatever mp3s i wanted for notifications and copied and pasted them into my notifications folder which will be located in your media folder,open astro click sd card then click media then audio then notifications and paste whatever you want to hear for notifications sounds in there then when you go to your list they should show up and work like a charm.
