[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Psywar28:
Hello all!

My Brother is over right now and he is an owner of the HTC Thunderbolt.

He just got the newest OTA update on his phone a few mins ago.

He was telling me his battery life n' such was very horrible.

I was telling him how my HTC Evo 4G was the same way when I first got it. I was telling him how I rooted the phone and installed a ROM that gave me better performance and battery life.

So I talked him in to rooting his Thunderbolt. Now I am trying to figure out What ROM or Kernel would be best to flash on his phone for better Battery Life.

Also before I rooted his phone I wanted to ask to make sure I would not run in to any issues since his phone just received an OTA Update.

I know with ROM's it is usually best to test them all and go with the one you feel is best. I was hoping someone could give me some insite though on to which ROM would improve battery life the most.

He wants to stick with Sense. Don't care if it's Froyo or GB.

Thanks for the advise/help!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raoufosman:
You can look into damf, synergy, and gingeritis all great Roms. But in my opinion gingeritis give me the best battery for my TBOLT and performance I give it synergy I'm using that now and its my fav out of all of them. But they are all great roms devs did good jobs.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doodlebro:
He should see how battery life does for a week or so because of the new update. Then decide if he wants to root.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BennyJr:
I agree with this. But if he wants to root now tell him to try out bamf 1.8.6. Its really stable and it is much much better on the battery.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rexdog888:
I've been running synergy and now liquids new gb rom and both have had great battery life..especially compared to when I first got the phone.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orkillakilla:
Does he live in an area with LTE? If not, disabling the LTE radio would help battery life. To do this, open the dialer, any type *#*#4636#*#*

This will bring up a menu. Choose phone information, then scroll down and under "set preceded network type" choose cdma auto prl. This will disable the LTE radio, which causes battery drain in a none LTE area because it is constantly searching for an LTE signal.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B.klewis:
Can the new OTA be rooted? I just got the T-bolt and my GF accidentally accepted the update when she was playing with my phone and now I'm stuck with it
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lostnuke:
yes it can
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dak_181:
I'm also on synergy and love it and getting great battery life (easily 12 hours on 4g) make sure he also downloads setcpu and sets it to scale down cpu when the screen is off that saves a ton of battery.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MyMeth:
try inj3ctth3ory rom the battery life is good so far
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Psywar28:
Thanks for that. I had him set that on his phone.

The new update did not help with the battery as you all know by now lol.

I will probably make him install ROM Manager so he can switch between ROM's to choose one he likes.

I will also have him grab SetCPU.

Thanks for the tip's / advice!

I have nex-tech wireless as a provider with an htc desire cdma rooted using unrevoked and do not have stock RUU and need to unroot my phone what options do i have
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foedman:
no one know
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] funkadelic19:
okay. let me tell you now, I have searched for months and months to find info about these nex-tech desires and have found very little. i hope you made a nandroid before you rooted, because in most cases, thats the best option unless you have some sort of dire need to unroot. and the only solution ive found, is that if you want a full stock RUU, it wont be from nex-tech. it will be either a US Cellular RUU or an Alltel RUU. i can post the links for each one. i used the alltell one, hoping it would clear **** out and give me a fresh phone. but for whatever reason, it still didn't do what i needed. hahaha. so i can assure you that they aren't some b.s. links.

Yesterday my G2X was really hot it was over 110 because of the weather... So how hot is too hot and what to do to protect the phone when you have to be in sun? Any advice?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tackleberry:
I have same problem. Its 110 in Vegas and there is not much you can do.

G2x with CM7 and faux kernel. NONSENSE!!!!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] KRAZYADROIDMASTER:
I was at a outside event and my phone was at 119°F.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jsapp:
Mine was at 120f sitting on my desk at work. Considering a swap.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Bronk93:
My phone gets hot sitting in my truck dash mount streaming music, then again I live in Florida. On a side note it doesn't get hot at all playing drag racing for 4 hours straight.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] krekabl:
Here is what LG says:

Humm... Max Storage temp is about 122F, so I'd be careful about leaving it in a hot car during the summer, especially in direct sunlight. The Operating Temp is about 113F ...

There is Thermal protection built into the phone so if the heat gets excesive, it should shut off, But personally I wouldn't push it to that extreme. I use a little app called "Battery Indicator Pro" that makes it easy to see what the reported temperature of the phone is.

If the phone is uncomfortable to hold, then it's too warm... Remember, Heat is NOT a friend to Electronics of any type.

If your phone is getting too hat to hold, I'd contact T-Mobile or LG Support about getting it repaired / replaced. LG can be reached at (800) 793-8896.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] baka2x:
I noticed mine was warm (about 40c) when using my data and just surfing. When it went up to 45c, I turned the data off immediately. I let it sit for a little bit and it went back down to the 20s.

It was the first time it got that warm so I'll chalk it up to the weather.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mmapcpro:
I had mine in my car while I was driving around running some errands 2 days ago. It was 101 degrees outside, and the phone shut off...when I turned it back on, it said it was 125 degrees...I"m guessing that was too hot. I haven't noticed any indications of permanent damage, so I guess the safety feature worked.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] KRAZYADROIDMASTER:
I hit 122°F today and phone lock up. Keep phone out if heat. LOL
[T-Mobile LG G2x] wewoapsiak:
101 in KS?? And I thought TN was bad.

Just talked to Darkie and qbking. ACS is on this.

Note to all: This is a theme chooser theme so most of the png's need to be renamed then the frameworks built from scratch. We all have lives so give us a little time.

[General Questions and Answers] rchoi999:
I got the same Kudee about a week ago in HK and I was able to rooted it with z4root too. When I keep pressing the 'home' + 'return' buttons while powering up the tablet, it go through the recovering process sucessfully without errors.

From your pics, I can't see the usual internal micro sd card slot found in other tablet so you can upgrade the internal storage. I was hoping to upgrade the rom from 2G to 8G.

Also, I was trying to dump the firmware using dd but no luck coz I still couldn't figure out the device name used under directory /dev.
[HTC EVO 3D] spar10:
is it just me or does the camera on this phone suck?

there is a huge delay before the shutter actually takes the picture, there's no option to tile my photo library so i can find photos easier and there's also no option to "share" so i can attach pics to e-mails or upload to facebook.

is there a better option?
[HTC EVO 3D] :
Is it just me or.....
[HTC EVO 3D] GaryJ51:
Yes. Buy a camera. :D
[HTC EVO 3D] ExploreMN:
I've noticed all cell phone cameras (at least on the phones I've owned) have that shutter lag issue. However, my gallery view tiles the pictures and a long press on a picture gives me the ability to share/edit/print. Also in gallery view there is a share icon on the bottom (2 arrows pointing up to the left and right). Yet when a picture is selected, the menu doesn't allow sharing, so I can only share from the gallery view.

Now, that is all stock. I don't know if there is a better gallery type app or not.

Also, you can set the shutter speed. I leave mine on auto because I don't know what the hell I am doing (read: I'm not a photographer) but perhaps there is a setting you can change to increase shutter speed? That's what ISO is, right?

Anyway, I think the camera is very comparable to other cell cameras. I have a really nice Canon point-n-shoot 8mp camera for more intense camera moments.
[HTC EVO 3D] :
^^^ In all seriousness.

[HTC EVO 3D] rockky:
If you weed out the idiotic posts here you have some info.

The camera really isn't good (ironically given it is marketed as a camera-phone of sorts) in average lighting conditions or under. ...HTC is notoriously poor compared to Apple, the Sony, and Nokia's, and Samsung. Just is what it is.

You can improve by playing with settings workarounds (set saturation and contrast up one notch, tap the pic and use enhance , use incandescent setting indoors, use Picsay app to improve them etc.

The vol up + down method is used for NVflashing.

I used Smartflash so I didn't need to do that.

@random: Aside for checking for LG USB drivers, make sure that you have the battery pulled out, and you are plugging the phone to the PC with the volume down pressed.
[LG Optimus 2x] randomsnes:
smartflash

but it doesnt react to the volume down : P since what i've understand is that it should pop up a the LG bootup thingy

And it doesnt.... The only thing the phone reacts to is when i try to NVflash... but the nvflash seems to fail all the time by some reason :S in the middle of everything
[LG Optimus 2x] Mjuksel:
take out your battery, plugin usb + hold volume down.

then smartflash all the way :) !
