[HTC EVO 3D] smoley:
Guys,

As seen from my screenshot I hope you all can help me out. The go sms widget is higher than the rest of the applications and the text has a black background. I don't have any other apps that I'm using. How can I get this widget to align properly? I've tried handcent's widget and it does the same thing. Is this an evo software issue? An application issue? Or an issue on my end that I can fix somehow?

Thanks!
[HTC EVO 3D] jgalan14:
That's how widgets are, I have one and it looks ugly like that i just try no to stare at it Lmao

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

[Eee Pad Transformer General] mveksler:
I have noticed that charger gets very hot after last update. Also if i go to battery info the battery use is alway unavailable. The battery drains faster on standby. But i am very conserned about charger getting hot. Is this normal?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] sassafras_:
Yes. The charger gets hot, you just didn't notice before.

Battery info is unavailable because of the custom battery tracking software that goes along with the Transformer having a dock. Maybe ASUS will fix it later.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] mveksler:
Thank you for the info on the battery. Also, I had noticed before that charger was getting warm but probably not as hot.

[HTC Inspire 4G] chensan215:
Today before my baseball game, my whole team was sitting in the stands. The bleachers were like the 4x2 wood bleachers with tons of cracks and holes. Anyways, I was at the top, and set my phone down. A foul ball was hit right back at us and everyone jumped and my phone sadly fell through the crack. I saw it fall all the way to the concrete ground. It was at least a good 30 feet up in the air. When I ran down to get it, I expected a cracked screen or a broken phone, but all I saw was a small scratch on the otterbox case :D :D :D :D :D

I am now convinced that this is the best case out there! :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] Bluegrassman:
Congrats on your phone surviving! I'm assuming you have Otterbox Defender? That's all I use. Sometimes the added bulk and weight are a drag, but stories like yours always remind me that it's worth it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] chensan215:
haha idk i actually got it from craigslist and it came with the phone :p

i think its called an otterbox commuter
[HTC Inspire 4G] Pheno.menon:
My Commuter saved my Inspire too, there's a thread about it somewhere down there. Glad to hear stories like these :D

I actually ordered a Casemate Tough today because I want to have two to switch between and I'm a little tired of the Commuter's lint magnet corners and slippery back. Great case overall, though.

[HTC Inspire 4G] christensen143:
Glad to hear it saved your phone. I chose the commuter over the defender because it is not as bulky. It seems safe but it is good to hear it has worked for someone.
[HTC Inspire 4G] theinfamousdrew:
mine has saved my phone a few times
[HTC Inspire 4G] xKrisx:
I wouldn't get the Defender for a Lent Free experience.

The Commuter has less of the rubber lent magnet exposed then the Defender, seeing as how the Defender is completely wrapped in that lent magnet :(

I went with a Seido case for my Inspire due to the less lent magnet body. Can't report on durability due to no accidents :) .. however I can say that it feels VERY solid.
[HTC Inspire 4G] jsm7483:
I really can't stand the lent magnet either. It smells fishy. Also it only comes around part of the year. I tried using the lent magnet before and it was Ashes by wednesday Next try will be in my Palm Sunday. Maybe I will just make a lent promise not to use my phone. Who am I kidding?

I dropped my Otterboxed Tilt 2 on a concrete garage floor, and at the grocery store with nary a scratch or damage of any kind. Otterbox... Good cracker!
[HTC Inspire 4G] biglittlegato:

That gives me so much peace of mind...because I haven't put it to the test...I was actuallykind of bummed when I got it..I ordered from amazon and it wasn't what I expected...didn't feel as solid as the one I had for my bravo...so thanks
[HTC Inspire 4G] soccerwuedo5:
While cycling I pulled my phone out to change the track and hit a bump in the concrete, the phone went up in the air, caught the front tire and shot out like it was sent from a pitching machine!

10-20 feet down the road, the phone is fine and the case has a small chip in the top corner. Otterbox Commuter saved my phone as well!
[HTC Inspire 4G] karlkarloff:
My Otterbox Commuter sadly is no more. It did its job and protected my phone, but the hard plastic outer shell cracked in two. Got caught in the spinning blades of a fan I was working on at the shop, got slung across the room and smacked into the wall. So no complaints here. I decided I would go bigger and got the Defender this time around.
[HTC Inspire 4G] lloydkant:
i neved drop my HTC but my wife iphone 4 is jumping always from her hands....and is alive thx to a otter box defender....best case ever
[HTC Inspire 4G] josh.c.4566:
I think I may have the only otterbox defender failure story. :( lol. I was on vacation with a few of my buddies to Myrtle Beach and we had arrived there earlier that day. So we decide to celebrate, as normal people would, and I had a few nice beverages and sat my phone in my lap on the outside balcony. I stood up, forgetting all about my phone, and watched it skid across and plumet to its doom. after falling 11 stories, It smashed the corner and shattered my screen and then proceeded to bounce into the bottom of the 13 foot deep pool. :( I still miss my droid Incredible to this day!
[HTC Inspire 4G] Chevyguy85:
lol that sucks but at least it failed from an extreme occurrence that no one would expect it to survive through in the first place. The IPhone users are fanatical about their otter boxes I've seen people throw it against brick walls to show how tough it is.
[HTC Inspire 4G] josh.c.4566:
Yeah, i know countless phones that have been thrown across parking lots and against walls. I guess there lucky they never directly hit the screen! That would definitely change there opinion. lol
[HTC Inspire 4G] rambo83:
otter

:) its a awesome case
[HTC Inspire 4G] imromulus:
Otterbox Commuter saved my phone too! I install cameras for rider photo's on roller coasters around USA, Canada and Mexico. I was in Cedar Point OH working on Dragster when I dropped my phone from a 25ft ladder. It hit the 6th step and bounced about 10ft away. The only damage was a crack where the power button is (the thin piece of plastic than goes around the rubber nipple).

Good case =]
[HTC Inspire 4G] jpcdeux:
My pocket was free and has always kept my expensive smart phone from falling off bleachers.
[HTC Inspire 4G] nslayden:
My only issue with the otter box or most covers for that matter is that they make a big phone even bigger.
[HTC Inspire 4G] LobotomyTH:
The Otterbox for Inspire is a really solid case, much better than the crap snap-on plastic ones that scratch the back of your phone once foreign objects get trapped in between the case and phone. I think I have a commuter, and it's served me well. It's a lot thinner than most Otterboxes I've seen.

Defender's a bit too bulky for my tastes.
[HTC Inspire 4G] rllebaron:
I've had the commuter series Otterbox for my Inspire and its saved my phone twice! The second time I dropped it down a couple of stairs and it broke the case. The phone was fine and I bought a new otterbox the next day.
[HTC Inspire 4G] JoHnGr0n3:
I have and Otterbox Commuter and I only take it off when I'm home or at the office because I barely move on this places.. but when I'm in the street or in the field I always put it on.. my phone hasn't suffered many falls but those few times I had my Otterbox and my device looks as good as new and it's going to the 4th month now.. :)

[EVO Shift 4G General] RickNY1971:
Hi all.. My Evo Shift 4G seems to have developed a charging issue.. I'm not sure if the phone is not reading the voltage from the battery properly or what.. Basically, my phone will not charge over 85%... In other words -- it never reaches 90%+ on the phone, which would typically cause the charging indicator to change from amber to green.

I've watched what the phone supposedly sees with 'Battery Monitor Widget'. Currently, the phone has been on the AC charger for about 7 hours... The phone reports 77% charged, 32.1 degrees C for the battery, 4024mV. I've watched it during the charge cycles, and when the battery is low, the current is definitely being applied to the battery -- around 500-600 mA. When it gets close to 70%, however, it starts ramping down the current.. Right now, at that 77% level, it is showing 0mA being applied to the charging circuit.

I have 3 batteries -- two HTC original batteries, one about 2 weeks old, the other from March.. I also have a 3rd party battery.. All of the batteries behave the same in MY phone.. If I throw the batteries into a couple of friend's HTC phones (one has a Hero, the other a MyTouch 4G) -- their phones report the charge at 100%.

I also have an external charger -- if I charge the batteries in that fully, my phone shows 85% charge, while my friend's phones will show the batteries at 100%. Likewise, if I put their batteries in my phone once theirs are fully charged, my phone will show it at 85%.

Anyone know how or if I can correct this?

Thanks,

Rick
[EVO Shift 4G General] Ron Overdrive:
Have you tried clearing the battery stats and re-calibrating?
[EVO Shift 4G General] Enraged21:
I would suggest you do that.

Your phone would have to be rooted though.

Evo SHIFT
[EVO Shift 4G General] RickNY1971:
It is rooted.. I get the same behavior on CM7 or the rooted OTA 2.3 update by x99..

I've tried clearing the battery stats.. That has not worked.. I believe it comes down to a problem with how my phone is reading the voltage of the battery..
[EVO Shift 4G General] linuxman008:
Worked for me...

I had the same problem but the it could charge to 93ish% percent, not 85. I fixed by clearing the battery stats, setting the screen to never go off, and left it on overnight (while I'd been using it all day), recharged it to full while it was off the next morning, and unplugged the charger and reinserted it until when I could plug it in starting with the light green. Following, I turned it on while it was still plugged in, downloaded the battery calibration app from the market, and calibrated it.

Afterwards, I've been able to get the same outrageous battery life that others claimed they got on roms like evervolv and miui, and been able to charge to full. See if this works for you.
[EVO Shift 4G General] FdxRider:
Have you tried a different charger? Say if you are using the wall try a usb or if using a usb try a wall. Just a suggestion don't know if it'll work. :)

EDIT: Looks like I need to follow my own rules and read everything fully. Sorry for the ignorant post it'll prob be no help!
[EVO Shift 4G General] RickNY1971:
I've tried charging via a number of different chargers:

1) HTC AC Charger (5V/1A)

2) Computer USB (5V 500mA)

3) Palm Pre AC Charger (5V/1A)

4) Palm Pre Car Charger (5V/1A)

5) Aftermarket AC Charger (5V/1A)
[EVO Shift 4G General] viperspike:
I think there may be a problem with CWM. I tired the wipe battery stats a few times (7) and it seems like it didn't do anything. Then I downloaded an app from the market called battery calibration, wiped with the app. I think it actually worked with the app, as my run times went from about 8-9hrs to well over 24. Hope this helps - Viperspike

From what i understand, charge to 100%, turn phone off and charge a little more, reboot, wipe batt stats and unplug. Run all the way down to zero (phone shutdown) and restart one more time (it should immediately turn off) Then plug in the charger, and reboot. Once on the charger make sure it charges uninterrupted until it reaches 100% the first charge.
[EVO Shift 4G General] RickNY1971:
Thats the problem.. I can never get anywhere near 100% -- 85% is the top.. At that point current drops to 0mA and the charging circuit turns off.

I did send a support request to HTC.. This is their response:

You were having issues with the battery life on your HTC EVO Shift 4G. You mention that you have tried another battery but you cannot get the LED indicator light to turn green or the charge percentage to go above 85%. You state that you have tested your two batteries in a friend’s MyTouch 4G and HTC Hero. Both devices show 100% when there is an indication of a full charge. Unfortunately, there might be another hardware related issue causing this to occur so I would suggest you consider a repair request for your Android device.

I was just sitting on the couch, and the screen on my phone came on by itself. Not to the lock screen or anything, but the screen looks like its on its dimmest setting (barely on at all) and the search button at the bottom is very dimly lit up. Happened twice in the past 20 minutes...anyone else? I'm going to reboot and see what's up.
[HTC EVO 3D] phatmanxxl:
Are you using a third party sms app? There's a usually a setting that wakes the phone when a text is received.
[HTC EVO 3D] ubcwigwam:
I've used Handcent without any problems so far. But to be clear, this 'waking up' of the screen is NOT like when you press the button to turn on your phone. When I noticed the problem the screen was so dim that if you're not in a darkened room you probably wouldn't even notice, it's very faint and the only other thing that was lit up was the 'search' button and it too was very dim. At first I thought it was just the reflection of the tv across my phone screen thats how dim the screen was, but it was definitely on and no buttons being pushed would completely wake it up until I pushed the power button to turn on the screen completely like normal. Weird....but after a reboot I didn't see it do it again. I'm wondering if others might not be having this issue and not even have noticed, thus poor battery life for some people?
[HTC EVO 3D] fr0st420:
This happened to me once before. A rebooted fixed the issue for me too.
[HTC EVO 3D] pyroswithoutfire:
Have you used one of the temp roots. I had the same problem when I used one of them and when I restarted the phone it seemed to clear up the issue. I have noticed that powering of the screen while its in 3D mode can cause weird issues too sometimes.
[HTC EVO 3D] ubcwigwam:
Strange. No this is a stock device I haven't tried the temp root yet. Since the reboot I've been watching it closely and it seems to be fine. I suppose this thread should have been posted in with the one already discussing bugs, but I wasn't sure. Thanks for your kind replies!:)

[Eee Pad Transformer General] Vertiginouz:
So I've had the transformer for a while and I finally took the plunge and followed this guide http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1125714 to root. I got to step 4c, meaning I successfully ran root.bat and cwm.bat and rebooted afterwards. When I rebooted however, the tablet stayed on the "asus powered by nvidia" screen for a very long time. I decided to shut it down, but it immediately started back up again and stayed on that screen again. The only way to stop it was to put it into APX mode so it doesn't drain my battery.

I'm pretty sure I followed all the steps correctly, and I was on the latest .11 OTA update. Help please?

EDIT: I reread the first few sentences of the guide and realized I missed a very important step... I forgot to extract 84411.zip into the "root" folder of tf_rootkit_31, which means I have no boot or recovery image. Is there any way I can recover from this?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] sassafras_:
Just start over with the correct files in place.

The boot.bat file will write those files and you should be good to go.

With APX mode the transformer is basically un(software)brick able.

sassafras
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Vertiginouz:
I tried starting over but I can't seem to boot into APX mode. When I turn it off and then hold power/vol up, device manager refreshes but APX mode doesn't show up. the device also isn't listed under adb devices in the command prompt...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jhanford:
When you say it doesn't enter APX mode, is it still boot looping? When this happened to me, it took about 10 seconds just holding power and vol+ before I heard the USB connected sound.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] paddy01:
adb won't show the device when it is in APX mode. If you're on windows you need to check your device manager or connected usb devices to see if it's there. The screen on the TF should be black until you start the rooting proccess.

If it is bootlooping just keep power and vol+ unti the screen goes blank - can take a few seconds extra.

Also make sure you use the correct 84411 zip - using the US version on a WW TF will make it go into a bootloop - I suspect the same will happen the other way around.

GL :)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Vertiginouz:
Thanks for the responses, I'll try again when I get home in 3 hours. also when I say bootloop, it's not turning on and off repeatedly, it just stays on one screen until I turn it off, then it starts back up by itself.
