Im telling you that super amoled really spoils you. That is the one thing that is really making me be in the middle between the two. After having one and going back to a LCD is hard, really looks washed out, plain and boring.

lol, funny how companies get your attetion/business.
[Verizon Droid Charge] sammyguyana:
agreed...4 g is faster than my wifi right now. Screen is SICK. Can't go to a bionic from this, only a 4g GSII. If it exists.
[Verizon Droid Charge] papi92:
I hate to say it but I'm getting the d3. I'm going to sell this phone. I hate how slow it is and knowing samsung updates won't come fast leaks are great but leaks are leaks. 4g is killing my battery and I'm always on wifi anyways. And oh who doesn't miss the keyboard. Locked isn't a problem im sure it will be unlocked the same way the atrix was and motorola left fastboot on it which means there is more to come. Just my opinion and i know the trolls will come.
[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
r2DoesInc has a Charge and is going to work on porting OMGB and OMFGB to it, so we'll have at least those for AOSP ROMs then. Once one AOSP ROM is done and working, it should be easier to port others to the phone then as well. It will happen at some point, the only problem is, it could take a while to happen.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Falcyn:
To put things in context, the Fascinate, which came out about 10 months ago and is extremely similar to the Charge specs-wise, has just -- literally in the past few days -- gotten more-or-less fully functional CM7.

As far as the Incredible 2 goes, it's a decent but thoroughly underwhelming phone considering it came out so recently. Single-core, no 4G, okay but not great screen...it really is more comparable to the Fascinate than to the Charge or Droid X2.

Honestly, if you have a choice, you'd be better off waiting for the Droid Bionic, which will finally mate a dual-core processor with 4G.
[Verizon Droid Charge] IncrediblyDroid:
i tell you 4g is so sweet. I came from a dx and i knew the bonic was coming out when i bought the charge. I dont regret at all upgrading. As i hated Blur and there screens are bad. TouchWiz is not that bad to me. I think you will be very happy with the charge. I am rooted and on humble 1.3 and voodoo kernel and my benchmarks are as high as my droid x on Gingerbread. I dont see qhy everyone loves Motorola after owning my charge.

Good luck buddy
[Verizon Droid Charge] Mriley1021:
I'm running gummy charged 1.4 its aosp and running 2.3.4. great Rom and really smooth. but you have

To flash 1.0 through Odin to get the right radio.
[Verizon Droid Charge] papi92:
It's not aosp hahaha its a debloated and themed tw rom
[Verizon Droid Charge] titanfan1017:
I am so very confused. I have the droid charge. I had a droid 1 for the past year, I rooted it a hundred times or so with all different roms. it was very easy. I cannot for the life of me find on here or droid forums how to root the charge with no other changes. I guess there isnt a way yet? I really LOVE 4G. I have seen speeds up to 12 Mbs. And twice that fast posted by others like in Dallas area. I am a truck driver I am in and out of 4G areas all the time. I have a situation where I had to pay for the tethering right now my son was in a terrible crash and we have been in the Vanderbilt hospital in Nashville since Sat. $30 for 2Gigs...ugh. I need root. lol. I have searched and searched. I do not understand the oodin method. I really have tried to find what im looking for just unable right now. ty in advance
[Verizon Droid Charge] papi92:
Odins the only way
[Verizon Droid Charge] titanfan1017:
but can it be rooted without changing everything else? using odin?
[Verizon Droid Charge] Reginalb124:
Yeah, you definitely have to be willing to flash a rom to this phone, Sammy's stock software is awful. I don't think I could own the thing without a custom rom and lagfix applied.
[Verizon Droid Charge] luvtorev:
how do these roms run compared to stock? I have seen the pictures but no videos, maybe somebody can post one and compare it to something else. Honestly the droid inc 2 has got pretty much the same specs as the charge exept no 4g and more ram. The thing that I love about the charge is that it will be future proof with the 4g and the lovely screen.

How about the droid 3? anybody seen one yet? It just seems appealing because of the dual core and front camera, but I would hate the extra bulkiness from the keyboard. So hard to decide on a phone which will be a solid phone for the 2 years.
[XPERIA X8 General] havokdroid:
I\ve been trying to run autoproxy on an X8 with Froyobread v18.

The iptables have been confusing. Is it built it or is there a rom/phone specific iptables for download?

Help would be loved :)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Lcas:
hi guys,

i'm having some problems with the battery life of my LG P500 (with CM7 + Kernel v18.1).

i installed this custom rom because some people told me that it has the best perfomance. But what I see now is a bad battery drain...

what I have to do? Change the CM? The Kernel? Or what?

unfortunately, i accidentally deleted the backup file... :(

thanks!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] dislplin01:
After you install a custom rom you need to first wipe your battery stats from your recovery then you can also use battery calibration app also you need to give your phone some time to get used to the performance for the battery life to be accurate you can see this warning in a few roms and in francos kernel thread the performance is better and the battery life is better to issue also suggest turning off your 3g when not using it if you have a 2.3 rom then you can go to cyanogen mod settings if it has it and add it to your notification buttons my battery on medium to heavy use will last 24-36 hours where with stock rom maybe 10
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Lcas:
thanks, man! =D

well, i don't use 3G... i keep this turned off. ;D

so, this is the only thing that i can do? Wipe battery stats?

i did this right now... let see...
[Optimus One, P500, V General] FnH84:
There's not much you can do that has actual effect on the battery life. Keep wifi & 3G off when u don't use them is usually the first advice. Unfortunately overclocking means that your battery will drain out very fast. Mine's on charge via USB-cable most of the day, and using wifi or playing games for 40 mins means at least -20% battery power.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Lcas:
i know about wifi and 3g... ;D

and what about custom roms and kernel? my cobination could be a problem? =\
[Optimus One, P500, V General] FnH84:
CM7 (6.5.5) comes with franco's kernel, and as far as I know, that's the best one at the moment, so I don't think that is the problem either. it's just how this ROM is ... you're not the only one with the same problem lol
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Brainy142:
how many things are you running in the background?

I've had issues with a couple programs eating cpu in the background.

oh and brightness makes a large difference.

if you have missed message flasher running by either flashing the screen or vibration's that will also drain the battery fast.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Lcas:
well, i flashed kernel v18 cfs... i read that it is better than v18.1 bfs

yeah... i'm seeing that i'm not the only one... =\
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Lcas:
this is something that i'm really looking... the apps that are running in the background... and something that i think very strange is the maps app... it is running though i didn't open it... o.o

the same thing happens to the equalizer...

they run without i know... so, i go there and cancel them. =s

flashing the screen or vibrations i have disabled. ;D

thanks!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Brainy142:
if maps is running that is what is killing your battery :).

if you want maps

get titanium backup and backup (or if you have paid freeze) the app and restore/unfreeze when you want to use it.

Yes Maps can drain the battery a lot lol

ps. you can see what is using your battery if you goto

settings ----> about ---> battery use

Lucky you can turn off 3g I'm on a provider that won't work unless I have it enabled -_- lol
[Optimus One, P500, V General] maip:
My main reason for flashing a custom ROM is the ability to change permissions for each app that has been merged into CM and is part of mik's port. That combined with droidwall is a very important tool to battle the privacy violations with so many apps. That means that I didn't overclock, but I still saw an incredible battery drain on 6.5.5 + 18.1. Plus I was getting a weird log error with droidwall. I appreciate all the efforts on behalf of the developers, and I really hope to get a stable rom that would let me modify permissions of all apps with good battery life. Everything else is secondary.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ashishv:
Google maps will not drain battery until u have data enabled,same applies for other processes running in background.

And overclocking also doesnt drain battery faster as said on franko tweaks page.

(Correct me if i am wrong)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Kira.Lawliet:
False, read this about overclocking and battery, analyze the chart ;)

And with google maps plus other similar apps running in the background, it will try to connect and find a connection therefore draining battery.

processes that only run in mine are:

google services (1process, google messaging service)

android keyboard ( dont tell me u dont know that ;))

pretty much those are necessary for your phone to be functional.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Lcas:
well... i flashed kernel v18 cfs and the battery drain kept the same or changed a little bit... =\

Kira.Lawliet, beyond this process, my phone run setting and, often, maps... =s

what is the best solution? should i change the custom rom or what?

thanks!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ashishv:
I got OC info from this page.

And abt maps,i have stated that it will not consume battery when data is NOT enabled.

Anyways thanks for those charts.

But as per my personal experience,OC doesnt drain battery faster
[Optimus One, P500, V General] theclaw37:
Use v18 CFS, not v18.1 .. i had the later and the battery drain was huge. Switch to 18, charge to 100%, wipe battery stats, use until completely discharged then charge again and see if that helps. OFC not even v18 can compete with the stock (or even mik's kernel) in terms of battery life, but if you want performance...
[Optimus One, P500, V General] shashi_hv:
For me the best option was mik CM 6.5.5 and fk v17 cfs!! Definitely feels stable all the time!!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Lcas:
thank you, guys!

well... i really made a little mistake... the battery life improves with the fkv18 cfs. isn't a awful improvement, but is something.... =D

should i change to v17? =s

how i can see, CM 6.5.5 is the best option... :D

thanks!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Kira.Lawliet:
Hm, i thought devs like andy and a couple other devs mentioned it before that g-maps & other similar apps will consume a %tage of batt. It's similar to bgsyncs. You can see for urself and log then block it with droidwall.

let's say:

you got every connection off (wifi, 3g off, only 2g for messages/sms otherwise none) > g-maps running > it will TRY to FIND a connection at a specific interval e.g. ~20min. > therefore consuming resources. I dunno about the latest versions of google trashes though (maps got offline support)

About oc'ing, yeah 122-480ish consumes the same BUT not if your phone is demanding more cpu to complete tasks, i.e @ 122 clocked it completes the tasks at a longer time than 320 wc is fast, just balance it if you are gaming or just using it for web browsing/sms/calls/music/minimal gaming like me( ~2.5 days atm im on 320/729 v18 bfs smartass & it's good enough).IIRC franco told this on his earlier pages on the kernel topic ;)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ElGeorge:
Correct me if I'm wrong but for a 2.3.4 rom shouldn't you be using the BFS version of Franco Kernel? I believe that CFS is for Froyo roms (at least that's what Franco himself told me on a post a few weeks ago)

if i change the front.. is it will be fine

and what about 2.3 in my device??

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] shahzadquraishi:
Try downloading an app named LCD density.

change the no.s

the higher it is the larger the font.

Hope it helps.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] AndroidSkater:
Install spare parts (xda isn't letting me post links to other sites because I'm new so search it up in the market)

It's an app that let you change some hidden settings and one of those settings is font size.

I'm pretty sure it's only for rooted devices (I assume yours is rooted) but it may work for others.

Hope this helps :D:D:D

EDIT: I'm not sure if this app is in the market and there is a fake in the market so try sideloading it from somewhere else

[T-Mobile LG G2x] jastiden:
Gentlemen,

I live in Chile and use the 3G network, cell phone in the U.S. and buy it when I choose the network I can only choose to 4G and 2G know how to enable 3G? :confused:
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jose makalolot:
So you don't want 4g?

Sent from my Calculator with Android.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jastiden:
Because in Chile, while not using the 4G.

Currently this only works on 3G
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Xenolance:
The long and short of it: The G2X has a bug in the stock ROM that does NOT display 3G at all. So when it's showing 4G, its actually running either 3G or 4G. There is no icon for 3G at all.

I could be wrong and 3G could be tied to the 2G icon, but I've seen 3G speeds far more often when the phone is displaying 4G than I have when its displaying 2G. No one has been able to verify this for me. Obviously if chile doesn't have a 4G Market there is no way to "force" 4G speeds.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jcbofkc:
On the stock G2x I do not believe you will ever see the 3G symbol. Tmobile 4G signal is just a very fast 3G. They call it 4G. You will only see 2G or 4G on the taskbar.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] krekabl:
It's OK, don't worry. Just use it
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jastiden:
In network mode, there is only GSM and WCDMA.

The only that works is GMS.

when I use the data plan I get the icon 2G.

I think that actually is 2G, as the navigation goes very slow.

I never appeared on 4G, you can change the ROM?

thanks
[T-Mobile LG G2x] LordButtersI:
The phone displays 3g as 4g. Why I don't know, maybe T-Mobile wanted everyone to think they were getting 4g all over the place when actually they weren't, but it DOES support 3g. Your phone will SAY it's running 4g, but it probably won't be. Run a speed test if you want to see for yourself.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] aowendoff:
So, let me see if I am reading this correctly. When in Chile, you can only connect to GSM which makes sense. So you never see the 4G symbol? You only see the 2G symbol?

If this is the case, have you done a speedtest to see what kind of data speeds you are really getting?

Andrew
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jastiden:
Only works on 2G Chile.

The network operator ENTEL works with 1900, some pages say that the cell blocks this signal with other operators.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Ceeedgeee:
Well me being the idiotic adventurous person. I tried to CWM my phone to ICBINB, and so everything went through ya know. then I rebooted. it got stuck once again. Now it won't go into dl mode or recovery. when i plug the usb it goes straight to the sign with the battery, but even that got stuck. so i tried adb reboot download and the device isn''t found. So did I like screw myself over? the only way for me to get to the Samsung GalaxyS 4G Screen is without the usb. So anyhelp on how i can fix this.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] steeleain:
Did you try getting into recovery i.e.,hold volume up + volume down + power until recovery comes up. If you made any backups and you can get into recovery sometimes you can reboot a saved backup.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] steeleain:
Also to get into DL mode hold volume up + volume down and while holding plug USB into your phone keep holding volume buttons till giant triangle appears
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Ceeedgeee:
Even if the chargin battery comes up keep holding the volume buttons? cause the battery you know how it's suppose to charge with the green. Mines stuck it has the loading circle and the battery picture is blank. so it's like stuck there, should i just keep holding those buttons? and i've tried alot of methods already so far none have worked. I really don't want to have to buy another phone.

open odin on your pc and connect the usb to your phone. Pull the battery and hold volume down + power button and put battery in as your holding those two
