+1 ...But...

If I am overclocking and/or undervolting and/or running the phone too hot (battery temp > 105ish), I can still get the occasional SOD. Remember, each of us has slightly different hardware due to manufacturing variables and maybe even running updates as the phones were being made. Use caution with regard to overclocking, undervolting, and temperature. You should find a setup that works well when combined with "stay awake while charging."

Most of my experience is on CM7 based ROMs. Using Trinity ELP, I rarely (if ever) had problems when the temp was under 105. Recently, on Faux 050 stable I have not had any SOD's at 1015MHz or lower when the temp is under 105. I don't think I ever got a SOD on stock 2.3.4 with stock kernel, but my experience with that setup has been limited to just a few days. The last few weeks around Chicago we've had outside temps upwards of 100. I've seen my battery temps over 110 during phone calls while taking a walk in the sun. No problems. Maybe I am a lucky one with more resilient hardware?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] r3sidual:
Stay Awake is an okay temporary solution. You can't safely put your phone in your pocket that way and your battery is going to drain faster, but at least you won't have to worry about missing alarms or important notifications.

I've tried a few different ROMs/kernels (Eagle's Blood, Hellfire, stock, rooted stock) and all entered SOD. I tried disabling wifi, sync, etc and just went into airplane mode--didn't work. Just tried the phone with no SIM or SD card--didn't work. Battery shows 94* at 4.034V so it's not hot. Has anyone tried replacing the battery?

I got the best result with Hellfire's Phoenix after I first installed it. The phone woke up multiple times then never woke up again. I did notice once with Hellfire that the home buttons were faintly lit. It was as if the phone did not fully go to sleep and thus couldn't wake up. It hung in the process of going to sleep. I think it's important to note that while the phone is off, tapping the power button does show the battery status, so if the phone will wake in that instance it can't fully be a hardware problem... Can it?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] regP:
Um, stay awake only effects the phone when its plugged in so yes you can put it in your pocket and no there is be no difference in better life with it enabled.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] supergear:
Under locking can cause sod
[T-Mobile LG G2x] r3sidual:
Stay Awake allows me to keep the phone awake while charging or indefinitely. When my phone display goes out it doesn't wake up so I have to keep the display on at all times, thus battery life is diminished greatly. It doesn't seem as if you have the same problem.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] regP:
I use stay awake on every android phone I've owned and ive never had an issue with a phone not sleeping while unplugged. it only stays awake when it'd plugged in. so I dunno what to tell you.

my phones black screen is chronic, i have rebooted a million times, hard reset 3 times. Each time i've went back to the same MIUI rom which i had been running for several months, i've been rooted for over a year and the only roms i've every used have been MIUI. After reset phone worked fine, i hadn't installed anything except google voice, gapps, and yahoo mail. i forgot to put on charger last night, it was dead this morning, took a few hours to get it to turn back on, now that its back on, i'm getting constant black screen, but the bottom panel lights up. here's my thread, if anyone can help, thanks

Trinity kernel change minimum CPU to 516 = no SOD I don't like not letting my phone go to sleep.

[Vibrant General] MadNosf:
I read a report and folks were giving someone on the forums slack about another article (can't remember the post) about the 2.3 update timings. I just read that it is going to happen shortly (early summer which should mean by end of this month) for Bell Canada so we might be getting it in the US around August since i think it was a month behind for us when 2.2 came out in Canada.

Here is the full article: http://mobilesyrup.com/2011/07/07/a...-incredible-s-desire-z-and-atrix-this-summer/

I guess we didn't have to wait

THAT long

for the next update :eek:
[Vibrant General] sahil04:
Mid-July seems like early summer to me :p
[Vibrant General] jneal9:
This this looks to me like the Bell Vibrant. And I believe that is just the i9000m and not the T-Mobile Vibrant right?
[Vibrant General] reddragon72:
You are correct. The OP is thinking the Telus Fascinate which is T959D and is not getting an update anytime soon. The Bell Vibrant is I9000M.

Also we were the first US carrier to get a leak of 2.2 and this time around everyone else has a leak but us, and to put the icing on the cake the T-mobile galaxy S 4G has a leak which leads me to believe that there may not ever be a Vibrant ginger release.

[Vibrant General] driver24:
I have a Vibrant T959 and it is unlocked and rooted. I use it for wifi tethering. Just wondered, if I load a new 2.3 firmware into the phone, will it lock it and screw up the rooted part. I curently have the 2.2 firmware in it. Thanks for any help.
[Vibrant General] DR-EVIL23:
Do i need to "unroot" my Vibrant to be able to update via Kies?
[Vibrant General] reddragon72:
I little birdie just flew over and pecked my head and said you are wrong. He also said that a 2.3.3 leak for the Vibrant will happen on the 15th as they are wrapping up the Galaxy S 4G rom and will now work on T-mobile Vibrant ginger rom.

take that with a grain of salt as I shot the birdie and had it for dinner.
[Vibrant General] ipetloudog:
I want proof. Pics and timestamp or didnt happen.
[Vibrant General] Longcat14:
If it really does come on July 15th, your going to be so loved, if not..... yeah.
[Vibrant General] reddragon72:
Like I said guys this is from someone on the inside and holds some merit, but as with anything(and you know it if you work in the IT field) dealing with computers/electronics dates are soft and she did specify that.

For those that always want pictures/proof or it didn't happen I don't know what to tell you. Believe me or not, whether the date comes and goes with or without the rom, and even hits one week later, I am simply passing on something that I was told. I asked the question to someone I know and they got me an answer and I know them to be pretty good at getting info.

So here is the salt shaker take a grain and please move on.
[Vibrant General] ipetloudog:

[Vibrant General] Vibrant03:
15th? I hope it's true!
[Vibrant General] reddragon72:
What? your a troll? Well at least you feel confident enough to come out and admit it. :p
[Vibrant General] Joy2DaWurld:
We've been too disappointed with FROYO updates from Samsung...I think many people will just suggest to believe it when we see it.
[Vibrant General] explodingboy70:
Did that little birdie also tell you that a 2.3.3 leak would actually be a step backwards from what you have available?

Just curious?

why they say it is coming when they don't know the exact date I don't know if this is a cultural thing in korea and they have such a loose standard

Really Guys, come on !!!

Hey people we really do not, and cannot confirm any of this ok so why don't we all just wait like nice little Boys and Girls, till mommy makes our 2.3.3 Gingerbread with Milk :D

P.S. Patience is a really mature attribute to posses
[Vibrant General] DR-EVIL23:
and why's that?

at least on the official 2.3 release i believe every app/feature/function would work like it suppose to. (GPS... :rolleyes:)

[Vibrant General] Vibrant03:
Rudest comment of the day.. goes to.. lol ^^
[Vibrant General] yamensaleh:
no it will not, actually it will give us a fully working GB 2.3.3 on our phones.

with all my respect for our developers and their work which is amazing, but when we have a stock kernel from the manufacture him self then we will have every thing working 100%.

i hope we will have this update
[Vibrant General] koooba:
I really wish I discovered these forums before I bought my vibrant. "Samsucks" is right and HTC is my next phone choice. A friend told me that HTC will have an unlocked bootloader policy for all devices from now on, or starting in the not too distant future. So they may cover unlocked phones as long as they are not bricked, at least that's how he understood it.

Very unlikely Samsucks will do anything like that ever. They can't even give proper updates.
[Vibrant General] djgromit:
It's easy to trash on the vendor for not living up to your standards, but a lot of work goes into those phones, and Samsung is doing a lot better than they have in the past. The thing you should have researched and considered before buying your Vibrant is the custom UI over the AOSP interface. When you add the custom UI, there is an entire new layer of research, development and testing that needs to occur over the top of Android itself. This makes it take longer to get to production.

I knew this was a risk with the Vibrant, but the phone is so gorgeous, that I was willing to take it for the handset.

HTC makes a really solid handset, but they are not exempt from this either. Many of their handsets are running Sense, which is a totally sexy UI, but will cause the same kind of delays in updates because it hooks so deeply into with a whole new set of custom drivers, etc.

Also, your comment regarding HTC's supposed "bootloader policy" is as much speculation as any suggested timeline for a Vibrant Android update.

Would you rather Samsung give a timeline and not meet it, and just piss everyone off more, or just give you one when they are finally sure they are going to deliver it then? They already made that mistake once, and personally, after they way you guys rip them apart, I'd be a little gun shy about providing you with any kind of info too...
[Vibrant General] Lucky736:
Not true at all. HTC came out with the timeline over the past few days after their initial announcement a little while back. Look it up.
[Vibrant General] geoffcorey:
with the newest htc bootloader timeline update, for the us, it'll be in the hands of the carriers about whether the unlock capable update gets the ok or not. AGAIN, it comes down to the US carriers ****ing their user base over...
[Vibrant General] Lucky736:
Actually HTC is starting to push some on their own and not waiting for the carriers at all: http://www.androidcentral.com/editorial-htc-does-updates-right
[Vibrant General] geoffcorey:
Those aren't unlock capable updates, and something like that WILL require us carrier approval.

Also, HTC said about unlocked bootloaders, a maintenance update followed by unlock capable update (only with carrier approval).
[Vibrant General] MadNosf:
I guess my report in OP was accurate. The Samsung Epic is getting the update in end of July. here is the link - http://phandroid.com/2011/07/08/samsung-epic-4g-receiving-gingerbread-this-month/

Now lets see when T-Mobile decides to do it since they were first to send the 2.2 OTA.
[Vibrant General] iynfynity:
Most of the time things like that don't happen though the epic 4g will have a gingerbread, while we the vibrant aren't really sure if we're goong to receive an official gb.
[Vibrant General] movieaddict:
most of us will be on dual core phones for example hercules, sg2, before vibrant gets real gb PROBably
[Vibrant General] Bruce lee roy:
I don't really see any real benefit to upgrading to dual core phones. How much multitasking are people really expecting to do on a telephone? On a tablet perhaps it would be a little more useful but the type of multitasking that most users do can already be achieved on this phone...
[Vibrant General] draigons:
Well I guess the same could have been said of the PC. Everyone thought the older 1000 GHz pc's were fast, but look at them now, there are 7 and 8 cores. If a phone has dual core, just imagine it will be more powerful than your PC from just 10 yrs ago. The evolution of consumerism is to make the device/service of the "now" not of the past. Case in point, Apple, they have not settled on the original iPad or iPod they make new items to make new items to get new sales and with that your original iPhone became obsolete. I for one will wear my dual core Hercules, when it comes out, proudly and if there is a quad core when my contract ends in two years from buying my Hercules, then I will probably buy that too. Anyway hope you all have fun, take care and we'll see you in the Hercules forums. ;)
[Vibrant General] driver24:
I am using a Vibrant T959 but would like to get the 2.3 when it comes out. My phone is unlocked and rooted so I can use it in Canada with Wind Mobile. When and if this 2.3 comes out for this phone, does anyone know how I will be able to get it?
[Vibrant General] geoffcorey:
You'll know when when you see 5 threads in vibrant general, vibrant q&a, and in vibrant dev section about it, along with plenty of howtos.

Leaks

Yeah, we usually get leaks month before the actual release. I am very doubtful we would get official 2.3 this year.
[Vibrant General] mmfxda:
rom leak

Actual beta roms leak that is.
[Vibrant General] iynfynity:
if we don't get any leaks by this year I doubt that we will get one next year.
[Vibrant General] DonutYankee:
Yeah, my next phone is a Nexus phone. T-Mobile promised us they'd be quicker in getting us updates, and they've failed miserably on that promise.
[Vibrant General] archie53:
Completely agree, definately getting a Nexus phone from here on out, no more worrying about manufacturers or carriers updates.
[Vibrant General] Vibrant03:
That's why Google is releasing a nexus device for different carriers and made by different manufacturers, ics in the fall? At least that's the rumor I've read somewhere..

That will alleviate all the complaints about slow updates of the carriers in the US, you just pick which brand you want.. Ill do a samsung one hopefully will be on tmobile..
[Vibrant General] driver24:
So, I assume that the Firmware update (2.3) is done by the carrier, right and not the manufacturer? I own a Vibrant T-959, it is rooted and unlocked and I use it on Wind Mobile in Canada, so does anyone know where I would get this new Firmware IF it comes out at all?
[Vibrant General] shreddintyres:
what are you talking about GPS works just as it did on eclair for me, just as good as factory shipped :P but in all seriousness the only benefit of a 2.3.3 leak would be that we would have an idea of when we would see source code, and once we had source code roms like CM7 or those based off CM7 (miui) the roms would become even more efficient.
[Vibrant General] lewishollow:
The GPS isn't as good as froyo, and the magnetometer is effed, both of which could potentially be addressed with a leak or an official drop. I think those are pretty solid reasons to be excited.

hey guys i just got my Commando and rooted it with SOC. Now that that's done, i'd really like to put a diff rom on it, but havent had any luck finding one. Cyanogen is a no go.

Yes on roms please. I know one of you super geniuses out there can develop one for S.O.C.

C'mon, let me have an indestructible cool phone!
[General Questions and Answers] ckali7:
I agree, this phone needs some serious development. It's the perfect phone for those of us that work/play in rugged outdoor environments but it's gonna take some serious tweaks to satisfy us gadget heads with it's sorely under-powered processor specs.

The trick might be to try and figure out who manufactured this device for Casio....Is it just a HTC device with a fancy suit? If so then maybe some of the ROM's for that brand would work...My guess is that it's just another phone that's been repackaged in a rugged shell. Anyone have any ideas?
[General Questions and Answers] gioakjoe:
from what I heard it was hitachi
[General Questions and Answers] rjglenn:
Getitnowmarketing has posted a customy recovery for the Commando over on androidforums. I have installed it and it works. What is going to be a problem is that there is no way to boot into recovery from off. You have to call recovery from terminal emulator or from adb.

Hopefully a developer will come up with a ROM - but how do you test it in the face of a mistake can result in a brick that can't be fixed?
[Xperia Play General] bornotty:
Hi, I have decided to go for the xperia play. But before that I wanted to know if the 480x854 pixels.. the extra 14 pixels creates any problem installing or running any 480x840 apps from the android market ??

None that i've ever seen.

Upscaling methods are very advanced these days. I cant foresee any problems at all with any apps.
[Xperia Play General] Deoxlar:
I didn't even realize there were more pixels. Everything works fine and we'll though. No reports of any problems.
[Xperia Play General] ryocoon:
Generally, no. I've had one or two apps that have a tiny black bar at the bottom, but they were poorly programmed ports that were doing aspect preserve upscaling. You also have to remember that this resolution is also what the entire "DROID" series of phones runs at. They pretty much sparked a lot of the major interest and development on the platform.

Occasionally you run into an app that didn't code correctly to handle it, but overall it is generally not an issue.

Hi guys, I'm traveling to the S.Miguel, Azores (Portugal) this weekend and will be bringing both my captivate and x10. I'm assuming that for voice they both should work (minus the missing 900mhz band), but can I get data? I usually would take an old v600 quad band phone which does a great job for calls on the vodafone network, but I would like to use my smartphones so that I can use my voip lines to speak to friends/family here without long distance charges.

Will I be able to use data with these phones?

Btw is the APN for vodafone internet.vodafone.pt?

i'm from Portugal:D:D

you can use xperia or other phone, you can use on 2g or 3g mode.. data package is available too in vodafone

i sugest you buy a vodafone Sim card here, it's a lot more cheaper too navigate instead of using roaming (taxes are very high)

vodafone sim cards should be available in the airport... search somewhere like in those place that sell magazines... it's usual in here to find sim cards with a cost of 5 euro
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ProBoner:
I hope you're right about the 2G and 3G working, but I don't know how the coverage will be on the island without 900mhz band. North American models (X10a) have 850mhz instead of 900, the other frequencies I think are the same.

As for vodaphone SIM cards, I did that 3 or 4 times already with older phones :) Not a chance I'll be paying $300+ to my local provider because of roaming :D
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rockjock007:
Just be sure the handsets are unlocked and you will be fine.

Portugal is 2G (GSM ) 900 1800 3G 2100

Xperia x10a 2G (GSM ) 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900 HSDPA 850 / 1900 / 2100 / 800

You will get 2g and 3g there no issues what so ever.
