An option would be to use a bluetooth headset and if your phone is a2dp then download one of the mono bluetooth apps from the market to use it to stream music.

Understand you asked for the wired but not everyone is aware of the other options they may have.
[General Questions and Answers] aghilvr:
For my final year engineering project I have come up with an idea of developing a lighter version of android OS that can run on phone that cost less than Rs. 5k or $100. Don't know whether it is a good idea. I have a maximum of 3 months as my project time. This might be a creation of a custom ROM but should be available for low cost phone with less hardware.Is it feasible? Is there any chance of success? Please provide a valuable answer. Thank You!
[General Questions and Answers] jianC:
You would most likely run into a problem with the drivers. .

Ok, so could you say the least hardware configuration for android 2.1 to run...
[General Questions and Answers] The-Captain:
You would probably want to go with a older and smaller Android like 1.6, but u would run into issues because the phone would need a touch screen.
[General Questions and Answers] aghilvr:
so android os wont run in non touch phones?

Most likely not but I'm not sure.

[General Questions and Answers] The-Captain:

[General Questions and Answers] Product F(RED):
It does. This phone does, even though it doesn't say Android anywhere on it:

http://www.androidgoo.com/motorola-...i886-android-phone-without-a-touchscreen.html

It's on Sprint. It has no Market/Google Apps though.
[General Questions and Answers] equilni:
I think this would be a great idea for lower cost smart/dumb phones. Drivers would obviously be an issue, but for the ROM, you can try the CyanogenMod barebones wiki page to get an overview of what CM can do without so you can get an idea:

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Barebones

Not sure how much that helps...

** Edit - I am pretty sure you can run Android without a touch screen. I can use the trackball on my Eris as a mouse. I would disable the virtual keyboard so it doesn't get in the way
[General Questions and Answers] equilni:
Wow, I didn't think something like that existed. Now if it only came out on Verizon....

[General Questions and Answers] pmcqueen:
it's just a matter of having a GOOD trackball/trackpad (G1-style would be perfect for a non-touchscreen phone, I think) for navigation purposes.

getting android to run without a touchscreen isn't at all un-doable. most of the important functions (ie phone, mms, web, etc) can be navigated and used solely with the trackpad and keyboard (or keypad in the case of a cheaper device) even on devices that are meant to be navigated by touch.

hardware limitations, imo, would cripple the android experience though. you'd have to be very selective about what was incorporated... you're certainly not going to be playing gameloft games or streaming via netflix on a device like this.

still, I think it's doable and I think if you incorporate only PHONE functions and none of the superfluous smartphone stuff, there's no reason why it shouldn't work well.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saranyan:
Hey all,

I am new to the Android community. I just rooted my Nexus and flashed the Oxygen rom on it. It comes with the Netarchy kernel 1.3.5.(has awesome battery life) On the forums i noticed a lot of people posting about a trinity uv kernel for oxygen. Can anyone explain the difference between the kernels. Will changing the kernel affect my battery life?. And there is a new netarchy, should i update it to the latest version or just use the one which comes with the rom.. I am really a novice here, So any help would be appreciated. .:)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
Try both out and see which one you like better.

You can undervolt using Netarchy as well. You can either use SetCPU or Proton Voltage Control to undervolt.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saranyan:
Will there be a difference in performance?

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Abhi_UK:
Do these kernels overclock the sgx540 gpu?

If so by how much?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
overclocks CPU not GPU
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Abhi_UK:
But people saying the trinity kernel also overclocks the gpu which explains high quadrant. Also for galaxy s kernels they say 1500mhz for cpu equals 250mhz for the gpu and they have the same hardware.
[G2 and Desire Z General] TheRedDroid:
Hiya,

Ever since I got my phone replacement (Brand New in Box from Bell) I noticed that the battery drains 10% per hour regardless of my current clock speeds.

I'm only listening my music.

My mobile data is on.

Wifi is off.

I have ES Task Manager set to autokill when screen off

Details:

ROM- CyanogenMod Nightly #140

CPU Clock speeds- 245~368 Mhz

CPU Governer- ON DEMAND

VM Heap Size- 48m
[G2 and Desire Z General] Nospin:
Just making sure I'm reading you right, you have es task manager killing apps? Android 2.2 doesn't have any need for that, and it may hurt your battery life.

First thing to check is to make sure any apps that sync (weather) aren't syncing every 15min, and change them to every few hours. If that still doesn't work, try a different battery. May just have a bad one.
[G2 and Desire Z General] gbarayah:
Go into spare parts > battery history > partial wake usage

This will show apps that are running in the background that are using the battery. If there are any 'rogue' apps that aren't behaving properly, this should show it. You can also use Watchdog Lite from the Market (free) to monitor CPU usage of applications to try and find what is running down your battery.

Although, if you are listening to music, 10% drain per hour doesn't sound too much out of the ordinary.
[G2 and Desire Z General] TheRedDroid:
Update: I stopped my music for roughly 45 minutes and it seems that music doesn't affect it much. It still drains.
[G2 and Desire Z General] TheRedDroid:
Update: One application that was leeching my battery was actually "Friendcaster". Removed.

Yea good call. And get rid of that task killer! No need for that, especially in CM7.
[G2 and Desire Z General] chewy106:
Having similar problems suddenly. I was getting nearly 24 hours of battery life with normal usage, but in the last 4-5 days the phone drains to death while in standby. Searched here and online and couldn't find anything other than the normal check apps, etc. But I haven't changed anything in months, and usage isn't showing anything out of the ordinary.

Is it possible my battery is hosed? Android OS says battery health is still "good", and outside of screen-off it seems to drain normally. I even left it on for about 30 minutes and lost 1%. But overnight it went from 100% to 1% in just short of 7 hours with absolutely no use. So bizarre...
[G2 and Desire Z General] keenerb:

It's not just you.

I have same problem, with two different batteries, even after hard reset.
[G2 and Desire Z General] zanthian:
I have been having this problem the last two days as well. The t-mobile forum says to roll back the updates to the google maps app. I just rolled it back, will see if it helps.
[G2 and Desire Z General] keenerb:
Didn't help me.

Only turning on airplane mode helped me.

I think it's a TMO infrastructure/network problem of some sort, honestly. Maybe a bug with the deployment of 2.3?
[G2 and Desire Z General] zanthian:
Yeah didn't help me either.

I had my phone fully charged when i made the post earlier and it is now dead.

Hopefully they shed some light on this soon.
[G2 and Desire Z General] chewy106:
OK good I'm not crazy ;)

One thing I noticed last night after draining and wiping battery stats again is when I woke up it said Dialer took up 49% of the battery usage? I charged to full with the phone off, turned it on and it sat on the nightstand until this morning. Received 2 texts during that time, no phone calls made or received, and my alarm is set at 6am on it and went off. Battery went from 100% to 19% in this state.

This is frustrating. I read the T-Mo thread and it's seeming more like network issues? Anyone else have this problem here on XDA?

EDIT: Customer Support is useless. Insistent that forum posts "mean nothing" and I need to pay them $20 to replace the phone. Also they have no logged issues on this, even though I've seen multiple posts of people who've called in. Sigh.
[G2 and Desire Z General] candy for breakfast:
Also been experiencing the exact same problem with CM13X and CM151. I had uninstalled maps, which didn't improve anything, so I reinstalled it and it appears to be okay now :confused:
[G2 and Desire Z General] chewy106:
So far 1h16m since full charge after uninstalling Maps completely and rebooting and clearing cache, and battery is still 100% while sitting on my desk here at work. Also Dialer isn't showing 50% usage either. Hmmm.

Just got my wm7 device... wow, if I wanted an I-phone, or an android, I would have bought one... Yes I have had both and neither one was HALF the phone that my last windows 6.5 was!!!!

WM7??? wtf? yeah I know I am considered a noob on here, just because I haven't posted a bunch of bs questions. I am on here reading... and searching... and doing... but unless I post I cant ask questions in the development forum.

So here it is, Not flamin.. just opinion:

Microsoft... totally missed the mark! This phone has infinitely more ability out of the box than ANY Android or I-phone ever released! PERIOD! and then what do they do? cover all that ability with a "app" overlay and limit EVERYTHING.... So here we go again. Hack time...

I wanted a windows device that I can use... customize any way I want, change to meet my needs, expand into something so much more than a pretty "OH looky here!"

Just my thoughts.

[Windows Phone 7 General] stevenmu:
It's a bit of a mixed bag imho. The core OS itself is a huge leap forward over WM6.x and I greatly prefer it to iOS and Android as well. The fact that it's so locked down is a bit of a pain, I'd love the old WM style customisability/hackability back, and maybe we'll get it at some point, but tbh I find myself not really missing it as much as expected. So far it does everything I need.

Are posts like this really still taking place? I don't understand exactly what you need to "hack" about the UI... I mean, if you want a phone that crashes, is unstable, a headache to use, and useless 90% of the time, then you should probably go back to your WM device... The reason we used to mod the hell out of our older devices was not necessarily because we WANTED to, it was because we HAD to... Why did we all go to the newest versions of Sense? Because nobody was developing apps for our Windows Mobile to cover most of those features... I have to disrespectfully disagree with this stupid post

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] rockstar95:
Ok, so here's the idea:

According to the wiki page for the Universal, the phone uses the Qualcomm MSM6250 for the cellular functions. If you look at page 5 on the datasheet for the MSM6250, you'll see that the chip does indeed support quad-band GSM, as well as UMTS 1900 (1850 MHz - 1910 MHz) in addition to the UMTS 2100 band (1920 MHz - 1980 MHz). I assume these North American frequencies were disabled in the chipset's firmware to avoid extra licensing costs since the device would never be sold in North America.

Qualcomm has a program which allows for diagnostics and configuration of baseband chips in phones called QPST. If you look on page 83/84 of the program's user manual, it appears that you can specify which band classes the phone is allowed to connect to. I have no idea if this will work since my Universal hasn't arrived in the mail yet, but I just wanted to share what I found with all of you.

Being a new member, I can't post links to the pdf files, and the files themselves are apparently too large to upload. However, if you search on google for "80-v1400-3_h_qpst_ug.pdf" you can find the QPST manual, and "MSM6250 datasheet" for the chipset datasheet.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] rockstar95:
After doing some more research, it seems like the NV_BAND_PREF_I value in the NV-ram has to be changed. From what I've read, this value "stores the band-class preference on a per NAM basis." I found a recent thread discussing this same idea, except it's going from US bands to European bands on the Motorola Atrix. As seen in post #8, a member edited the NV_BAND_PREF_I and apparently was successful.

I have been looking at getting a tablet for a while now. I have been very interested in the Adam especially for the pixel qi screen. I do a lot of reading and thought that it would be great. My question for everyone out there is what do you think the best way to go is:

Buy the Adam 1 now

Wait until the Adam 2 is released

or buy the Asus Transformer

Besides the Adam the asus kind of caught my eye, although it wouldnt be as good for reading, I love the dock and for indoor stuff like movies or what not the screen looks good.
