[Verizon Droid Charge] rnaiyc:
I'm wondering if anyone who is successfully using the hdmi out on their charge can post links to the exact cable you're using. I ordered a hdmi to micro adapter that isn't working for me even after kejar's fix (1.5). I have read it could be the type of hdmi cable I put the adapter on so I'm wanting to know what products are working for you guys
[Verizon Droid Charge] RomTec:
I bought the hdmi cable verizon had for the droid x. No problems without any fixes.

Gremlins are watching you...
[Verizon Droid Charge] WilliamKingX17:
I work for Best Buy Mobile and we sell a Rocketfish Micro HDMI to HDMI cable and I use it daily with my Charge, no issues at all.

Sent from my Charge running Stock EE4
[Verizon Droid Charge] Gonkulor:
HDMI Cable

I purchased a Belkin miniHDMI from Wally World and it works fine.
[Verizon Droid Charge] will2live:
Its more then likely the adapter causing the problem. I tried that on my X and no dice. So for the heck of it I tried it on my Charge when I got it and no dice either. That said when I had my X I bought an actual micro HMDI cable and it works fine on both devices now.
[Verizon Droid Charge] mrpickem:
I used this one with my Evo & it works fine with the Charge as well. Less than $3 too. :D

[Verizon Droid Charge] Serinety:
I got the same cable.. works perfectly. On gummycharged GB 1.5 and watch netflix via hemisphere on a 60in led tv
[Verizon Droid Charge] code4chaosmobile:
Stupid question but has anyone tried hdmi out from charge with a hdmi to dvi converter (sadly my tv is older then hdmi)
[Verizon Droid Charge] lattosimbaste:
Tried quite a few different monitors. Most worked but a couple older ones wouldn't sync.
[Acer Iconia A500] worldboss:
Hey i'm a noob here and i have a question

Is there any way to enable 1080p on my iconia so i can watch full hd movies like all the other honeycomb tablets out there? I have now flashed the virtuous picasso v1.0.8 rom and i noticed that i still can't watch 1080p videos on youtube. So my question is if there is any rom or kernel that can enable 1080p video playback?

Advanced thanks ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] richichen:
you may try to use stock rom 4.010.22 or above which can automatically switch to 1080p output while playing 1080p video.
[Acer Iconia A500] OrionBG:
Are you talking about HDMI out? If Yes, then there are ROMs that can output 1080p trough HDMI. If you are talking about 1080p playback on the device itself then NO! There is NO Honeycomb tablet (yet) that can do 1080p in Adobe flash (youtube and others)
[Acer Iconia A500] gab182:
1080p

movies is lagging at 1080p this is killing me.

I am on the ota 3.1
[Acer Iconia A500] rainabba:
If you're watching on the tablet itself, there's no point in watching 1080p. The screen only has 800px vertical pixels (landscape). Just use 720p on the tab. If going out to HDMI, are you getting lag?
[Acer Iconia A500] gab182:
Yes i used it on the tab and tv . In bothe agging .

But 720p is good but not that crisp.
[Acer Iconia A500] OrionBG:
There is still NO Hardware acceleration (for video) in Honeycomb so ALL of the Honeycomb tablets have this issue! ONLY MP4 Codec (h.264 Base) is supported and any other file format will use software rendering (slow choppy)!! Honeycomb is still an incomplete OS.

Oh and if someone is wondering why his/hers Android smartphone plays video better, the answer is simple: Most manufacturers enhance codec support on their devices(Samsung the most) and Android 2.2/2.3 is more polished OS with a lot of support! Another problem is that nVidia have still not made a driver for honeycomb that takes advantage of the hardware decoder in Tegra2

Example: My 7" Samsung Galaxy TAB although with only a single core CPU can play ANY 1080p I have thrown at it! But it is running Android 2.3.4
[Acer Iconia A500] CSeb95:
but samsung tabs does it, doesn't it ?
[Acer Iconia A500] OrionBG:
Nope! NO Honeycomb Tablet can display properly 1080p (other than MP4 h.264 Base) video!
[Acer Iconia A500] CSeb95:
Oh yes sorry, I've just reached the friend of mine that told me, he has indeed a galaxy tab but with gingerbread !
[Acer Iconia A500] gab182:
thanks for the info :)
[Acer Iconia A500] vari9:
How to enable 1080p output on 3.1 ota??
[Acer Iconia A500] OrionBG:
?????????????????
[Acer Iconia A500] M..N:
Its already enabled
[Acer Iconia A500] vari9:
I am on 4.010.24 ota.....no 1080p hdmi out....
[Acer Iconia A500] HD87:
yea lets be clear on what the question is. It was said that 3.1 would enable 1080p hdmi out. still only 720p. whats the deal
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] bik2101:
I was wondering if anyone knows how to find out what apps are keeping phone awake. I'm running cm7 on my phone but seeing my phone has a higher awake time than I would expect and so I was hoping to see if I could find out what apps are keeping my phone awake. In the past when I was on stock froyo my phones awake time was always very close to my display on time but the couple times I've checked its been a lot higher than my display on time.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nimdae:
This is actually a tough one. Many apps request this permission and use it properly, while there are a few that abuse it. The best advice I can give is to remove apps one at a time that have this permission until the problem goes away. Once you find it, I highly recommend that you report the problem to the developer. If the developer can't or won't fix it, find an alternative.

This problem is the reason why people feel the need to run automated task killers. These do not solve the problem, only treats the symptoms.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s3v3nXDA:
I looked and did searches on the forum, I couldn't find my answer.. I was curious if there isJIT for the NS/NS4G; and if there is.. could someone point me in the correct direction? Thanks in advance
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
Jit is enabled by default. You can toggle it off if you like in cm settings but I don't recommend it.
[Galaxy S II General] Chivalryyyy:
Hi im hoping anyone can help out with a problem..

I have put a couple of Anime MKV files on to test out how it looks... but i cant for the life of me work out how to switch from the default audio track (japanese) to the dubbed english audio track?

i cant seem to find any option to do this in either the standard video player... or also in the Dice player i downloaded to see if that could do it..

Any ideas?? or can anyone reccomend another player that offers audio track choice? its either that or im gonna have to learn japanese :)
[Galaxy S II General] HellcatDroid:
Hi!

I'm in the same boat as you, as I have some Anime .MKVs with multiple audio tracks.

I found this player:

QQPlayer - com.tencent.research.drop (search for the name or packagename on the marketplace, I'd post the direct link, but I don't have enough posts yet to be able to post links.)

and can really recommend it.

You can easiely choose between the audiotracks (hit the menubutton during playback to get the dubs-/subsselection menu), it supports all sorts of subtitles and played everything I threw at it flawlessly so far.

Hope it works as well for you as it does for me :)
[Galaxy S II General] juami:
if you use diceplayer, check menu key -> settings -> select audio track .

you can chose mkv audio track.
[HTC Desire S] alikajalwa:
hi,

can anyone tell me from where i find custom roms for my HTC desire S.....

and could you guys tell me which company/guy roms are better to use in my HTC desire S......

Try the development section of the forum.

There is an index thread that lists

[HTC EVO 3D] jbarajasp:
so i googled for hours in search for good wallpapers at the qHD resolution and found nothing... i decided to make a few wallpapers specifically optimized for our wonderful qHD screens...

here you go... hope you like :D

and i attached an app to this post that i found in the galaxytab section of xda that will keep 100% of the quality of the pic without cropping!!! its a must have :)
[HTC EVO 3D] coffeehandle:
Gracious amigo. Good finds
[HTC EVO 3D] Flonkas:
Wallpaper app force closes after selecting the picture.
[HTC EVO 3D] jbarajasp:
Thats strange... It's slow for a few seconds after selecting a picture but it eventually says done.... but it never force closes for me....

It's a shame :(
[HTC EVO 3D] Flonkas:
Maybe its just mine.... Can someone try this and let us know if it force closes
[HTC EVO 3D] freeza:
There are plenty of qHD wallpapers in the link in my signature.
[HTC EVO 3D] jbarajasp:
I love the link!! :) but the thing is that these wallpapers all seem to be sized for phones like the atrix which utilize a moving background.... The evo 3d wallpapers should really be 960 by 540 because they don't move in sense 3.0... My 3 wallpapers are fully optimized with sense in mind... No cropping (loss in quality) needed :)
[HTC EVO 3D] lokko21:
App works great here, thanks for the walls. Keep'em coming.
[HTC EVO 3D] CheesyNutz:
working fine here

i would love doe someone to make a .bat file to adjust the size of the walls to fit the qHD screen i have lots of wallpapers and would love to use them
[HTC EVO 3D] freeza:
This is true, but I think the majority of people are/will use different launchers, as the Sense launcher sucks for not supporting moving backgrounds. Nice walls nonetheless :)
[HTC EVO 3D] jbarajasp:
I wish HTC would have given us the option for both styles
[HTC EVO 3D] GrimReaper24:
You want bad ass wallpaper s go to zedge look on Google for it they have **** loads of wallpapers for the EVO 3D :D
[HTC EVO 3D] CheesyNutz:
zedge app still hasnt been fully updated for the evo3d .. only like 500 or so wallpapers
[HTC EVO 3D] Azralag:
Thanks for posting these!

It would be nice if Sense had the option to have your wallpaper move while switching screens, makes everything look more fluid.
[HTC EVO 3D] mcmikecruz1:
Not with the carousel

If you don't have an Evo3d well you don't have an Evo3d
[HTC EVO 3D] jgalan14:
Thanks for the apk and the wallpapers i was looking for this :)

If you don't have an Evo3d well you don't have an Evo3d :P

If i flashed the ota. And u have unlocked bl and cwm, can I flash custom roms from 2.3.4?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vangelis13:
Yes you can
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Javi97100:
K thanks
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] velvetmxo:
I too flashed the OTA( 2.3.4), I wasn't rooted or unlocked when i did it. will there be a way to get the official version when released on my device?

(didn't know if i had to start another thread since OP already started it)
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mysticdrew:
Since it hasn't come out yet, no one knows if ota 2.34 we flashed will accept official updates properly. But if that's the case devs will definitely figure out ways to extract the files needed to install them either through fastboot or cwm most likely. You'll want to be unlocked and rooted.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] velvetmxo:
looks like i'm out of luck with the unlocking and rooting since it requires me to RSD flash to a different rom prior to updateing to 2.34 when they are saying it causes bricks. guess i'll wait for the official att and see if we can do the same update setup over the beta..love it though..just hate the fact my signal keeps going white then blue...any way thanks

Does anyone know if any attachable lenses work on atrix?

http://photojojo.com/store/awesomeness/cell-phone-lenses/
[Atrix 4G Accessories] Tao_Man:
well that article said that the lens would work on ANY camera phone, so I guess there is your answer.
[Atrix 4G Accessories] Wond3r:
those actually look pretty cool

if you get one, please post a review!
[Atrix 4G Accessories] live4nyy:
I don't know. It looks like the magnetic ring that's supposed to attach to the phone itself might cover the flash....
[Atrix 4G Accessories] Tao_Man:
Well if reading right they are made by Bower

http://www.bowerusa.com/catalog.php?item=301|388

and they seem to have two sizes for the base 2.1mm and 2.7mm 2.1 would just be big enough and 2.7 is plenty big enough, but I am guessing that the ones in the first add would be 2.1 or 2.7 at the base... I really do not know.

I think a good solid maybe is the best you are going to get

or email these guys

http://www.digitalkingusa.com/faq.html

they sell them also and just ask what the diameter at the base is..

I do not know why I spent so much time looking into this stuff, I almost never take a picture, ever. No way I am spending money on a lens, but the idea is cool I guess.
[Atrix 4G Accessories] Slade8525:

Well, I just contacted them with this question. Hopefully they will reply soon :) Thanks for the post because this is a great find if it's compatible and will be buying the Wide/Macro lenses.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] kdunn1994:
I've had an iPhone 3g and I've had a g1, mytouch 3g, Samsung vibrant, mytouch 4g, and now a g2x and no matter what I do my battery life is no comparison to what I got on my iPhone I could play fieldrunners all day and still not need to charge, right now I'm using faux newest oc UV kernel, juicedefender ultimate, set CPU w profiles, background data & auto sync off, no led touch buttons, I also lowered the screen brightness to 0% while inside and 25% if I need it outside, I also lowered the capacitive buttons brightness to the lowest level before they do not light up, what else do I need to do to get my battery on par with the iPhone, other than that apple can suck it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] laker666:
good luck. ithink the main culprit is that your iphone 3g doesnt multitask asnd therefore doesnt continue to have apps constantly running in the background...i could be wrong though
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jsapp:
I was going to say....because it can only do one thing at a time. It is dumbed down and not as powerful.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
The iPhone 4 is a lot better on battery as well, me and my buddy went fishing and charged our phones before we left and were playing games, calls and text... I was at 50% after 6 hours and he was at 72% and made more calls then me. My guess is the dual core using a lot of battery especially in heavy graphic games. I'm okay with it since well android is better IMO, and his lol. He wished he could do what I can with android...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kdunn1994:
Yes I was saying that my iPhone 3g was good on battery the 4 could only be better so the gap between battery life is even greater, I'm just saying we got a top of the line dual core beast, but we have to carry the charger around.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] itslinx:
I never understood why so many people complained about the battery life on Android phones. I have had 3 Android phones including my current G2X. I went from the G1 > Nexus One > G2X. The G1 was good for a short time. It was cool being the first Android phone. Loved it at first, hated it eventually after it got real sluggish and slow. The Nexus was a ****ing beast and never got slow or sluggish. I kinda wish I kept it, but it's ok. The G2X is a better phone.

As far as the battery life though, i've had nothing but good experience with battery life for the most part with my Android phones. I think the worst was the G1 at times. My Nexus One had great battery life. My G2X has good/great battery life. I think if you're using it a lot throughout the day, it's bound to die down. It IS a battery, no? The only time my battery has drained is when I used it a real lot. Connecting to Wi-Fi and viewing websites, videos, music, games etc.

Other than that, the battery is fine when I don't do all that. There has been a few times here and there where the battery seemed to die quick when I haven't done much, but it hasn't happened many times at all. Not enough for me to get angry about it.

My battery is at 61% right now and it has been off the charger for 13 hours. I haven't used it a real lot today, just here and there during work. Browsing some websites and stuff like that. That's more then good enough for me.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] krolla03:
Look at the size of the iphone battery.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kdunn1994:
I'm just saying if android is gonna demolish the competition, they need to get battery life up to par, its easier said than done though, there's on 1 iPhone and like 300 androids.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] pinhead:
The Sensation is the first Android phone I have used that can last all day on a single charge. That's with normal all-day use. Every other Android phone I have used has been dead by 2pm or earlier.

The last iPhone I owned was an unlocked 3gs. It barely made it past 3pm or so before dying. At least with that phone I had a Mophie Juice Pack Air (external battery case) whereas with the G2x and other Android devices I was usually left waiting while it charged.

I do not think manufacturers concern themselves with battery usage for most devices. Android itself isn't all that bad. When left disconnected from any network it lasts as long as devices with different operating systems. It is as though applications access the Internet too often, unnecessarily so, causing battery depletion both in use and not.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kdunn1994:
That explains allot.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] rvdangel630:
i can get 17hrs on my g2x no problems...

also the i heard the iphone 4 doesnt even have a 1ghz proc, but i could be wrong.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] qipengart:
I think that it has a lot to do with iOS's closed system.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] derekedw:
Why? Because it does more, so you use it more. The real key to good battery life is the apps and widgets you use.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] LordButtersI:
Despite all its flaws, Apple does use very good hardware. As in some of the best in the entire world.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mysterioustko:
Battery life is higher because it really isn't doing anything past what you are currently doing that present time. It doesn't do background data nor true multitasking. Simply put, if you turn off all your background data on your phone and didn't multitask, you'd see a tremendous increase in battery life. I've turned off background data for a day once just as an experiment and you'd be surprised how much that can increase your battery life. The thing is, it also makes the phone a lot less useful. For me, my Sensation makes it through a day with heavy use pretty well and on a gingerbread rom my g2x lasts a day. I don't need my phone to last me more than a day as I charge it every night. Sure I'd always like more battery life, but not at the cost of functionality (like the iphone).
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ciaphuas:
first time I've seen a pic of an iPhone battery
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tackleberry:
IPhone sucks period.

G2x with CM7 and faux kernel. NONSENSE!!!!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kdunn1994:
Androids battery sucks period.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] laker666:
True...but oh yeah, android is already demolishing the competition
[T-Mobile LG G2x] rukawa2k:
well, Android is known of bad battery life. However, it is not so bad. I can get 15 hours+ out of my G2x on average. The battery comparison also varied on what size of battery you have in the phone and how often you used of the phone. So there is not a really fair comparison around. It's will be based on user preference. If you liked iOS, then use iPhone, if you like Android, then use Android phones.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] erikku:
Now I would not say that. :p That's the perception that Apple would like you to believe. Underneath all the shiny bits, are just common off the shelf commodity components.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kdunn1994:
Trust me ill pick android of apple any day but, it sucks that their isn't heavy optimization on battery life, their are so many android phones though this would be hard to do, maybe a universal software update focused on only that.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
The G2X and Vibrant got me through the whole work day but I usually found myself charging them around 7pm. My Sensation doesn't hit the charger until I go to bed around 11pm. The Sensation has the best battery I've seen so far on a android device. I supose its because its processor cab turn off one core and throttle down to battery sipping speeds. One morning I removed it from the charger and didn't use it for 3 hours and the battery read 99%. It uses next to no battery power when at idle. HTC definitely got that right. Now if only they can make a version of Sense without the eye candy and resource hogging.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Mikeglongo:
I can't put background data on my g2x and auto sync.... My battery dies so quickly.. Sucks because I hardly use the phone to its potential due to worrying about battery

[T-Mobile LG G2x] KRAZYADROIDMASTER:
There are certain parts, The same company makes for the different vendors.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] smashpunks:
I have pretty good battery on my g2x. I had a sensation and Honestly it wasnt any better. I had 3 sensations and 4 g2x. Actually, Ive had a n1, vibrant and a sgs 4g, and battery seems just as good as any of them. They actually all seem the same to me, but Ive used every one the same. Using they are all about equal. Sitting some will do better than others but actual usage there all the same(to me, im not generalizing)

Heres what I do. I keep sync off, keep background on, turn auto brightness off as it polls the sensor causing battery drain and keep it down to about 30%, then outside slide the top bar in CM7 to about 70%, I have minimal widgets that usually dont sync all the time, but I switch them to a couple hours, same as my weather clock widget. It changes temp every 2 hours. I have my facebook sync off, cause I can check myself, same with twitter. Basically, I just have my widgets updating periodically, sync off, brightness down, and just update my facebook and twitter on my own. Or anything else that requires updating. I seem to always get through the day with moderate usage no problem..
[T-Mobile LG G2x] NYLUVBUG:
Last charge was 22 hour ago. Currently @ 62% charged. Normal usage. SMS/Twitter/TuneIn Radio/Facebook. I disabled live wallpaper and only use 2g for data connection.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kdunn1994:
Battery is at 80% now 5hr 21 min I'm gonna do a discharge up till about 5% then I'm gonna see how battery life is tomorrow using 2g.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Darmokk:
I have a lot of experience with both Android phones and iPhones, and this is one of two issues that Android needs to address sooner rather than later. The iPhone has a big ole' battery and is pretty optimized to manage its resources. I also DO think the Android battery issue is a little overblown (i.e. people getting their new Android phones and staring at live wallpapers all day and then complaining about battery drain lol).

However the manufacturers should step up and optimize these phones out of the box, because not everyone is going to be like us and go all-out with their phones (upgrading kernals, custom widgets, juice defender, removing ALL THAT CRAPPY BLOATWARE, etc.).

The other issue is vetting Android apps for quality (and security reasons) however this problem is not unique to Android but rather an obstacle every open source platform has to deal with.
