[Verizon Droid Charge] dvigue:
on and iphone it tells you excatley how long the phone has been unplugged and Excatley how long the phone was USED and Not in sleep mode. why cant i see this on my Charge? all i see if how long it was unplugged and under status the "Up Time" is the same as on the Battery screen for "battery Usage" at the top. Same number...in "spare parts" the "screen off" and the "Running" are two diffrent numbers as well....

i did the battery calibration last night posted here on XDA and see no diffrence also. BUT, i have a spare battery that was 100% charged (bump charged it as well in the media dock) and when i shut off my phone (which was at 96% after about a half hour usage) i put in the fully charged battery and when it booted it STILL read 96%. Faulty ROM install? ROM itslef? i am on the debloated EE4. i installed Humble this weekend and could atually watch the battery meter read down....any ideas at all? was thinking of Odin back to Stock EE4 and debloating myself, calibrate etc and see if it is a ROM issue....

but i really would love to be able to see excatley how long my USAGE is compated to how long the phone is unlugged, and to find out why so much battery drain. I am now at 77% with "uptime" reading at 2 hours 26min...

Thanks for all your help!

Stock Debloated Deodexed ROM EE4

Standard Battery

Nothing syncing but Gmail and contacts

No weather widgets or anything like that syncing
[Verizon Droid Charge] SevereDeceit:
It very well could be the ROM or some type of confliction.
[Verizon Droid Charge] dvigue:
Hey? is this same From twitter???

i am wodering that as well. when i got it, i used Odin to go to STOCK EE4, Then flashed the debloated version, then i tried Humble (CWM flash) then used my Clockwork Back up to go BACK to humble...

i take it it is better to Odin a rom? since it erases the entire phone?

im gonna try maybe Gummy tonight...Odin
[Verizon Droid Charge] SevereDeceit:
Yep, It's me. Yes, that's what I would do. Start from scratch.
[Verizon Droid Charge] BeefJerky9:
Download an app called BatteryHistory from the Android Market:

It's really just a shortcut to the built-in battery history that Android provides but is usually hidden. It should give you the information that you are looking for; it does on my Charge.
[Verizon Droid Charge] will2live:
Highly unlikely it is a ROM issue. My guess is you are not giving it enough time on the battery calibration. It takes a min or a day or 2 to get in sync once you calibrate it and wipe out the stats. Reason being is you need to wipe stats when fully charged, then you need to let it run all the way down to 0-1% and then fully charge it without using it. After doing this a couple of times then the battery stats have some info on the highs and lows or the battery setting. Currently I'm running Humble 1.42 and get an easy 15+ hrs out of a full charge. And mind you I stream media alone on my device for at at least 2+hrs a day let alone any of the other stuff I'm doing with it. And streaming media for sure sucks battery down.

This is by far ( as far as I'm concerned at least) the best way to go about calibrating the battery in your device. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1187698

Hi,

Since I've upgraded to Gingerbread my calendar seems to be synching only one way:

- When I create an event online on google's calendar using my laptop they do show up on the cellphone.

- When I create an event on the cellphone it doesn't show up on google's calendar on my laptop.

Any thoughts?
[Atrix 4G General] GoodFoot:
Have you checked the settings in Calendar->Settings->Manage Calendars?
[Atrix 4G General] gnahc79:
+1. Also make sure sync for the entire phone is enabled. It was disabled once when I rebooted my phone, no idea why. I just added an event from my phone and it showed up on the computer instantly. Are you adding events to your calendar or a shared calendar?
[Atrix 4G General] rawfa:
It's strange. When I go to Calendar->Settings->Manage Calendars I get

- Phone Calendar

not synced, visible . There is an eye icon that is on but the sync icon is off. It allows me to set the visibility to on or off but not the sync.

- Gmail calendar

synced, visible . There is an eye icon that is on and the sync icon is on too. It allows me to select the if the sync and visibility should be on or off.
[Atrix 4G General] terrypchan:
I had this syncing problem as was described in this thread. The solution turned out to be to click that button and make the "Phone Calendar" NOT visible and NOT synced. Then the only calendar left was my real google calendar and now all the events I create on my phone are instantly synced correctly up and down to my google calendar web page on my desktop pc.

Hope this helps you out.
[Atrix 4G General] rawfa:
It worked! Thanks!
[Atrix 4G General] kommodore44:
was there any other possible solution or method anyone can think of in this situation, ive moved from stock GB to Miui Alpha 3 to a more stock ICS themed ROM to Miui Alpha 4 and somewhere in that last jump i lost calendar sync. Noone else seems to have this issue on the Miui thread and there is no option to select a 'phone' calendar or a 'google' calendar in Miui, its just the 'google' one. Thanks in advance

Hi All,

Here's an odd one for you, got a samsung hdimi/multimedia dock today, but it doesn't seem to be like the others people have reviewed.

Mine's made all out of black plastic, and doesn't have the front bit smoked/clear like some, and was in one piece in the box.. also just behind the speaker holes on the bottom there are extra rubber grips..

Now the model code on the box says ECR-D980BEGSTD although on the dock it just says ECR-D980BEG are there just different models? there's a ECR-D980BEGSTA too on google.. what's anone else's like?

Thanks

[HTC Sensation] CatyGeeky:
Hi,

I am new here and this is my first question.

I live in Eastern Europe but a friend of mine offered to get me a HTC Sensation in UK, that she can get through her subscription to O2 UK.

I would like to know if I get this phone do I have to unlock it to use in other country?

Do the O2 Sensations have custom menus and applications? If so, is it possible to get rid of them?

I'm sorry if these questions have been answered here but I couldn't find them.

If this is not the right place to find these answers, could someone point me to where I can find them?

Thank you.

Caty.
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
If it's direct through O2 it will have their own ROM, which has O2 splash screens and pre-installed apps. I don't know if it's SIM locked though, although I don't it is

I'd get your friend to get it from Carphone Warehouse as they only supply unbranded handsets so you'd have no issues
[HTC Sensation] CatyGeeky:
So you think these apps and splash screens are not deletable?

She is getting me from O2 because she can get it for 100 pounds with her subscription.

If she has to get from Carphone then I would buy it here because the price will probably be the same, around 450 pounds.
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
You can get it on upgrade on any network from Carphone Warehouse - I got mine on Vodafone for free (albeit a new contract)
[HTC Sensation] CatyGeeky:
I think you didn't understand.

Because my friend already has a subscription on O2 she can get the phone for 100 pounds.

If she were to buy from Carphone that phone would cost 450 pounds and that is a huge difference for me.

It's the difference between buying it and not even thinking about it.

If she couldn't get it for 100 Pounds I wouldn't even consider an HTC Sensation.
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
If she is looking at an upgrade (as in at the end of the existing contract) she can get it from any shop, and going to Carphone Warehouse would mean she gets the unbranded handset. She doesn't have to get it from O2 directly.

If she is getting an early upgrade then yes it'd probably have to be direct from O2
[HTC Sensation] CatyGeeky:
I guess it's an early upgrade because she haven't been in UK for long.

She got some special offer in an e-mail from O2.
[HTC Sensation] mrmotivator:
I've got an o2 Sensation. The only branding I noticed is an o2 wallpaper that is easily changed. Seems to be practically unbranded otherwise.

The only advice I would offer is be careful in case you need to return it, I had to send my first two back for having dust under the screen. The third one seems to be developing it again :(
[HTC Sensation] CatyGeeky:
Dust under the screen?

That sounds bad.

Having to send it all the way back to UK and risk the package getting "lost" would be terrible :mad:

I'm glad that the branding is easy to delete, though.

I still have to think about getting it.

Any other problem that we should check in case I decide to get it?

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] semilla:
I'm getting tired of this crappy Galaxy Tab 10.1 and Android 3.1

It's the third time that the tab hungs when playing a youtube video and doesn't respond. Then I switched it off and get on boot loop. I wasted 3 hours trying to restore it, and finally lost all my apps and data on sdcard.

I don't know if it Android 3.1 or this piece of Samsung shi*. No I'm selling it, I'm ****in* tired of wasting time with this.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] realgt:
i agree completely but won't go as far as selling it...talk about crappy software
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] |flyte|:
Stop whining, root your tab and throw on a good 3.2 ROM.

You have the power to solve your issues.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] kaediil:
Just throw a 3.2 ROM on there is not an answer. Why should I have to do that? I am neither a troll nor trying to start a flame war. I am an Android fanboy but I'm not blind. I can't recommend this device to my non-techie friends. In order to be any kind of valid competitor to the iPad, your answer will not work. In the last week my Tab has boot looped twice, causing me to spend as much time wiping, reinstalling and resetting my device as I have spent enjoying it.

There is still no true competitor to the iPad2 in the android universe unfortunately for the mass consumer. Period. They are all wither fat, heavy and ugly, or thin and look nice but are constantly crashing requiring either a complete fastboot wipe, or more likely for a nontechnical person a warranty return.

Oh and that solution negates my warranty and removes my ability to use a feature of the Android Market of watching rented Google Movies.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] EvoXOhio:
There are no 3.2 ROMs for the tab.

I've had it happen to my i/o tab 4 times now. It's pissing me off, and I'm not sure what I should do as I really do love the device. But the annoyance and frustration of it bootlooping about once every month and a half is getting on my nerves.

I have a asia MB860

System version is 4.3.10.MB860.AsiaRetail.en.03.

Internel version is OLYEM u4 3.1.0

Produced in July

Can I flash any firmware and don't brick my phone?

Can I flash the origin firmware?

Could anyone give me a link of this origin firmware?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jojojohnson7410:
Don't think you can just flash any firmware. you have to make sure that it is compatible with the hardware you have in your phone (but if you mean flashing AT&T builds, it might be possible. Then again, why would you do this? lol Oh, and this is providing that you have unlocked your bootloader. If you didn't, only official updates made for your specific phone and region will work. However, even if you're unlocked, don't try to just flash a ROM for say, the Desire HD, and expect it to work.

Yes, given you have either the CWM zip (for unlocked bootloader) or the sbf. If you unlocked your bootloader, TAKE CAUTION WHEN USING A SBF. WHEN IN DOUBT, JUST FIND THE CWM VERSION. And of course, if you can't find one, which i doubt, request and someone (or i if i have time) will make one =]

Here's the link, but learn to use the search bar/google to find stuff like these. I might be willing to find the specific link to give you, but some people will yell at you if you don't do a bit of searching yourself first. =] just a heads up

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billzillski:
When browsing the web if I press the home button or go into another app and immediately back into the browser all of the tabs want to refresh, even if there is only one tiny html file open. I have read about many people having this problem on different android devices but it never gets much attention. I am not clear what the issue is, can anyone give me a little bit more info?

I currently run an up to date Serendipity 7 on my Captivate and use Dolphin HD although this happens in the stock browser. Never tried any others. I have run many roms on this device and all of them have had this problem, although some more sporadically than others. With the latest Serendipity it happens like clockwork. I don't use a task killer, the browser doesn't close.

Sounds like a ram priority issue, cache not being written to disk or something. Is this general to the kernel? Is there a browser available that saves pages to disk until you've navigated away for a while? Why do most people not have this problem? Where should I post this so it gets the proper attention?

First post, longtime lurker, this issue is making me mad.

Hello Everyone,

My wifes HTC Wildfire on T-Mobile was running like a dog and as I have a samsung Nexus S running Cyanogenmod 7 I suggested putting it on her phone. It took me alot longer to do so but is now rooted and running. Trouble is she hates it.

I need to revert back to the original T-Mobile rom please can anyone let me know how I need to do this. I remember when I had my HTC HD2 I had to flash offcial rom and it wiped all the custom stuff off. I need to do this tonight so if anyone could point me in the right direction that would be great.

Many Thanks

Ok i have 2 problems 1 is the stock video player wont play mp4 files but my old htc dream did just fine.

Second problem is im trying to root my lg optimus 2x but superoine click keeps saying "checking drivers failed" whats the issue here iv installed the drivers and ran super as admin.
[LG Optimus 2x] antec123:
no 1 can't help, because my stock video player plays mp4 well, maybe you need to install moboplayer it's good player.

no2, make sure you check the usb debugging before root, and please make sure you already install the correct driver for your phone.

here is the link for LG driver

[LG Optimus 2x] eraldo:
I downloaded a driver and then found out the driver is already on the internal sd card and i also installed that and yes i checked debugging keeps saying checking drivers failed.

Could you link me to drivers that are defo correct?
[LG Optimus 2x] antec123:
i only use that driver, never use the driver from internal sd-card, and so far it is worked either for root or smartflash
[LG Optimus 2x] eraldo:
Yeah thats the driver that i did first still not working.

I also get unhandled exception when i click driver check on superoneclick.

Im running vista 32 bit

Ok never mind i plugged it into the usb next to it and installed the drivers again then tried superoneclick again and altho it said driver check failed it still rooted my device...... odd program, maybe just my pc.

Also the video problem i had seemed to have fixed it self, mp4 seem to work fine now.
[LG Optimus 2x] Grantzxr:
newest roms also play mkv files :)
[LG Optimus 2x] eraldo:
I have no intention of installing a rom, every rom that gets posted has something wrong with it, wether its bluetooth not working or other issues, iv had enough of that from my htc dream days. I just want a fully operational phone and im willing to wait for lg to release their update for 2.3 or what ever version they plan on just so long as nothing is broken in the process.

I only rooted to monitor cpu temp with set cpu, uninstall some of the crap lg stuck on my phone and to install ad blocker to cut the ads that are stealing my bandwidth.

[General Questions and Answers] coconut2011:
Hi all,

At the moment I am a student at the VU University Amsterdam, doing co-creation research. I am wondering whether it is possible that the members of xda-developers can fill in my questionnaire, and how it is best to do this to avoid any spam events happening.

The survey is done to investigate co-creators within online co-creation communities. An online Co-Creation community is a online network of people, who share the same interest, common identity and social relationships, among admires of a brand or product. Co-Creation is the integration of customers within the production and design process of an organization, to create value, and products to fulfill consumers' needs. An example of co-creation is the Boeing World Design Team, in which over 120,000 people contributed to the design of the new Boeing 787 Dreamliner airplane.

In this case thus consumers who develop own apps for mobile devices in order to increase the quality of that device.

I hope anyone can give me advice,

kind regards,

Roel Kersbergen

Hi,

I often dowload apps that come in a zip, and once unzipped are not in apk format.

For example, after being unzipped will usually include the following:

android manifest.xml

classes.dex

resources.arsc

a 'Meta-INF' folder

a 'res' folder

and a 'lib' folder

Was wondering how to get these packages installed. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Those are usually things you have to flash through recovery (install zip option), or install through MetaMorph if they're themes.

This folders are the typical folders found in an apk file. Actually, all you have to do in this case is to just rename the .zip file to .apk without unzipping it and it should work. I do that when my apk files that I downloaded comes out as .zip. It works for me all the time.
