[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bx19:
Battery calibration gives accurate reading only, it will not improve the weared out battery.

When shifting between roms, the battery will not give accurate reading because not all roms utilize the battery in the same manner (Rom saves the details in batterystats.bin file). So, what if it gives wrong reading. There might be a possibility that it shows 100% even when not fully charged. So we think battery drains faster, but the fact is we haven't charged it fully. (correct me for any errors).
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bynge:
Yes showing 100% wrongly must be the only situation where battery calibration be blamed. But 8-10 hrs of charging from deep-down-zero should definitely make it full, right ?

Whats your general time taken for charging in standby mode (WiFi, Mobile Data, Bluetooth Off).

I am experiencing heavy battery drain with WiFi, since I installed Sunabh ROM. (He adds a switch off wifi notification to hide this fault. Cunning.)

Any solutions ? May be re-flash the radio or change the kernel ?

Actually, my question isn't that simple.Andmaybe I should be asking this question to google, but maybe someone on this forum knows the answer.

I have a Google account. I do not have a G-mail account.

Now when i try to sign in using my Google account on the X10 it automatically takes me to create a new gmail page. I don't want to do this, I would like to use my pre-existing Google account.

It won't recognize my current Google account for some reason. I am thinking this is an eclair specific problem because I am not having this issue on my gingerbread tablet.

[Q] Can someone suggest a solution or maybe a workaround?

Edit: This happens when I open the market

Why not take the 15 seconds it takes to create the account....and instead take the 25 seconds to a minute to create a thread online?

Under your google account, what is your primary email address?

Use that if you want to try.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] denverseven:
Because I dont want a litter of email accounts - one for every service I use. That's mad.

And because my primary email account already works as a Google account... Ofcourse you would know that if you'd taken the 15 seconds to read my question instead of taking 25 seconds to write an unnecessary reply
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beau420:
You said you would like to use your pre-existing google account.

I said:

Under your google account, what is your primary email address?

Having just 1 email address is also never a good idea.

And under your google account management page, you can add multiple email addresses.

You also, you do understand that you can forward nearly every email address to another address.

First, do you have to be on 3g to update PRL or Profile?

Second, I have not been able to update my PRL or Profile since I first switched to a EE03 beta rom, I tried MANY other roms since, I even tried ODINing back to stock EC05 like it was when I first bought it and I get nothing. The only thing I ever get is... could not be updated at this time "Unknown Error."

The one fix that involes changing the OMA DM settings did nothing for me and I couldnt really find anything else that would be helpful to me.

This is really frustrating and I do not want to take my phone back to sprint to have them give me a refurb as a replacement. Anyone have any ideas?
[Epic 4G General] japin:
bump, anyone got any ideas?
[Epic 4G General] redvexx:
Try to odin back from stock again and you have to unroot before you can get the updates.
[Epic 4G General] lazydazed:
You should be able to update prl on any rom... I had the same issue, odin back to stock tried to update prl again it still didn't work so I brought it back to sprint... it failed some test they gave it, and then I got a refurb 2 days later
[Epic 4G General] digiblur:

I actually run the modified verizon PRL cause sprint sux in my area! I dont even know what updating your profile is but it sounds important so I am upset that I cant do it.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
Updating the Profile updates the handshaking between your phone and Sprint. If you have no trouble making phone calls you are good. But if you can't update anything it is something programmed incorrectly on your phone. Take it to Sprint.
[Epic 4G General] digiblur:
It uses the same data path as the PRL updates do...ever notice how the 3G or 1X icon disappear when doing a PRL or profile update? It commissions the data on the phone, sets up the AAA key, etc so your phone can connect to 3G and 1X data. If your data is already working then don't worry about it, contrary to belief Profile Updates will not make your internet speeds faster.

Ever since flashing the latest MIUI release the person on the other end could not hear me speaking. Others have seemed to have this problem as well. After days of searching and asking I finally found a quick fix for it.

If you have the Voodoo Control App installed, turning off "Hi-fi record" should fix the issue of the party on the other end not being able to hear you.

[Verizon Droid Charge] hoppermi:
Yeah I thought that was a little odd, also. Part of running unfinished software I guess.

kvswim, when you recieved a call the ringer comes on at half volume for about half a ring then jumps up. At least it did for me.

Oh, you mean the ring does that on GB. Completely went over my head :) Yeah, I guess it's just a bug from running gingerbread that's not fully baked yet. Weird, I didn't notice that when I was running Humble 2.2 (yes, I got it when it was still up :D)

Can anyone pls share any misconfiguration or whatever's causing this issue? Thanks!
[EVO 4G General] jackslim:
So I got my Google Music beta invite and I'm trying to decide whether I should trust my music to the cloud with Google or Amazon.

Normally I embrace everything Google.

So far the only feature I have seen in Amazom MP3 that I like better is I can download a song from the cloud to my EVO from within the app, I haven't seen that feature yet in Google Music app. Does anyone know if it is something that can be done? Future build maybe?

Another thing that would steer me towards Amazon is the pricing, with Google Music still being in beta, there is no telling what the pricing will be once this service is officially launched. I know that if I buy the minimum storage capacity for $20 per year on Amazon I can upload unlimited music files.

Yet another question in my mind is will Google abandon Music? Not all of their products make it out of beta and remain supported.

So what is everyone else's take on the two services and the Android apps associated with them?

Has anyone else chosen one service over the other and why?

Just like to get a little feedback before I spend a couple days uploading my music collection to one service or the other
[EVO 4G General] bkrodgers:
I've been trying both. I like Google Music a lot, but there's one big problem I have -- if you're not on a solid connection, it downsamples it instead of buffering until it can play it. To me audio quality is worth waiting for, so I need an option to not have it do that. Even worse, it caches that downsampled file, and won't try to re-download a high quality version unless you go manually delete it. And since it doesn't cache the files with descriptive file names, that's a problem too. Other than that, I like Google Music a lot. It does have an option to cache songs for offline play. Though not perfect, I like the app's UI pretty well.

I haven't used Amazon as much, in part because they initially rolled it out with limited storage. As you've said, they are now offering unlimited music storage for $20, though that is "for a limited time." I don't know what exactly that means, and I haven't started uploading my full collection there yet. I have a huge music collection (17,000 songs), and almost all are legitimately ripped from my CD collection. I don't buy a lot of MP3s, but when I do it tends to be from Amazon. Before introducing the unlimited storage option, the fact that songs you bought from Amazon didn't count against your space was a really smart move. I do plan to upload my full collection now that it's unlimited music uploads too. I haven't formed an opinion of their app's UI yet.

My solution before these came on the scene was Subsonic, and for the most part it still is. That has the advantage (and disadvantage) of streaming directly from my home computer. The advantage is that it's free (I can't imagine either Google or Amazon will give unlimited storage forever, though who knows). It has the disadvantage of going away if my home computer crashes or my home internet goes down, though neither of those happen often for me. The UI for Subsonic is passable, but not great (it's improved in the last few releases though). If Google fixes the audio quality problem, or if Amazon works out well, I could see myself shifting to either of those. But if in the future they decide to charge for tiers of storage (I need > 100GB), I'd imagine I'd head back to subsonic.
[EVO 4G General] pandamaja:
when in the high level view, if you press the menu button you can choose items to 'make available offline' I think this is similar to what amazon does.

The main plus to amazon is the store front and instant availability to add new music.

I got an invite to spotify. For 9.99/month you get unlimited access and mobile app usage. They have a ton of music on there. I figure I probably spend about $10 a month on music, so why not put that towards spotify and get access to anything I want. The downside to this is that if I quite spotify, I get no take home. Kind of like renting vs owning a home.
[EVO 4G General] SilverStone641:
I had my google music account for a couple months. To me, it's a complete disappointment. It's slow. real slow. a week to upload 2k songs. Plus the loss of quality over bad connections (which is all sprint has).

I finally said screw it and closed the account. I use AudioGalaxy on my server to stream music. It blows Google music out of the water.
[EVO 4G General] Jfree3000:
**** took longer than that for me, I actually had to stop it a few times due to the bandwidth is was hogging in my house to upload. If you have a decent connection its great, i haven't tried it on 3g as of yet since I have wifi at work.
[EVO 4G General] SilverStone641:
Exactly! And i have a great connection, 24mpbs on Uverse and STILL it sucked up all my bandwidth. It just wasn't logical anymore.
[EVO 4G General] Nick N:
I have an Asus RT-N16 router with Tomato, do you still have to have a PC on to use Audiogalaxy? I am assuming yes after doing a quick search.
[EVO 4G General] SilverStone641:
Thats correct. There's a small agent you have to install on the host computer. You point the agent towards your music directories and voila. it shares.
[EVO 4G General] bweisholtz:
i've used both.

Google music is infinitely better.

My reasoning:

1. Currently letting you upload 20,000 songs for FREE

2. Integrates with the stock 3.0 android music player. so it blends your online and offline music perfectly.

3. Stock 3.0 music player is actually very well done. Amazon music player is ugly and not to intuitive

4. Since it runs off of google music app, you can scrobble what you listen to to last.fm.

5. The organization of the online interface is much cleaner than amazon.

6. You can sync folders on your computer or NAS to automatically update you're google music with no effort.

I honestly can't think of any reasons amazon is better.
[EVO 4G General] angrymanhands:
I also usually embrace all things Google, but Google music, i've found, is running constantly in the background. I don't like that. I realize the program wants to keep synced with the server/home computer, but it could refresh upon opening instead of constantly running. The audio is questionable, and for some reason it seems to consume more than average power on my phone.

Amazon is okay, but as already stated, it is not very appealing or intuitive.

For streaming I tend to use Audiogalaxy. No storage charges because it streams from your computer. Works extremely well. The downside to something like Audiogalaxy is if for some reason your computer is down, no streaming music.
[EVO 4G General] thedudejdog:
I use both. If you buy one album off Amazon they upgrade you to unlimited storage for music.

I only have about 10,000 songs anyway.

I use subsonic primarily and Amazon if my PC or home internet goes down. Then as a last resort Google music beta.
[EVO 4G General] PolyphonicSoul:
After trying both I can say that Google music is superior to AG in many ways. I don't mind keeping my 1000 watt rig off when I'm out or working. Took me four full days of uptime to upload 13k of songs on a 16mbps connection. when I add a new album the update is quick and painless. The only problem like someone said isGoogle music down sampling to the point of mono audio. In which case I got used to clearing the music cache and download Que on the app.
[EVO 4G General] Jfree3000:
Well one good thing about Google Music is you don't need to have your desktop/server running to play music. As mentioned before, my only gripe was the amount of time and bandwidth it took to upload my music.
[EVO 4G General] jackslim:
I looked at optons like this before, but I don't have a home pc to leave running all the time. I do everything on my laptop, which I either close when I'm done with or at times is out and about with me. This is why a cloud service seemed appealing.

I will have to check this out, this sounds like what I was looking for, if for instance I create a playlist while I'm out that I want to download and make always available on my EVO.

I ended up going with Google Music mostly because I have a soft spot in my heart for their services. So far the upload hasn't been too painfull. I'm currently about halfway through my collection of ~10,000 songs
[EVO 4G General] rrr666:

google music due to the instant playlist feature and also because its free for now
[EVO 4G General] skylar.sutton:
I wonder if this is an indication that the service isn't scaling very well. I got in on the Beta during week 3 and was able to upload 45GB of music in less than a week... let's call it 4 days to be safe, but felt more like 3.
[EVO 4G General] jjshleprock:
