[Motorola Photon 4G] reddragon72:
So there is a thread in another forum that mentioned going into the roaming preferences and switching from any CDMA to any roaming then back again to fix 3G speeds. While this did work and helped a little I have noticed two things now.

One, when on 3G with 4G, BT, and WIFI off the battery drains at 1% every 5 min and phone starts heating up(CPU hits 107+degrees).

And two, when I am doing speedtests or large downloads I see two things. One is the spedtest will error our and stop completely with data lost popup. This is with full bars and not even fluctuating. And two the download bar will jump back and forth. So when I downloaded a game at 11megs from the market the download bar, moving VERY slow at times, will jump around in percentage, it'll show 35% then 15% then 40% then 17% and so on, it is very very odd.

So has anyone seen there battery dropping off with 3G like this? And has anyone seen a data connection loss popup with full bars? (none of this is roaming it is all Sprint)

Thanks
[Motorola Photon 4G] A2CKilla:
the only thing i've ever noticed is that it'll drop for a second (everything all gray) then come right back on (everything all blue) other then that i haven't seen any spikes in battery, although i wouldn't be able to tell with this 10% battery increment they have going on
[Motorola Photon 4G] reddragon72:
I am using this for the battery. https://market.android.com/details?id=ch.blinkenlights.battery&feature=search_result

Seems to work well and no battery drain that I have noticed and I just put it on yesterday and my issues started tuesday so I know it's not this app.

The issue is my signal indicator never turns grey it is always blue.

I have an xtc clip, Anyone who wants s-off just get one and you're sorted!
[HTC ChaCha] myxcon:
Where did you get it from and how much did it cost?
[HTC ChaCha] qbert456:
Local dealer sold it me, I considered offering people send me their phone for me to s-off for a very small fee but I assume its against forum rules!
[HTC ChaCha] sOt0nGx:

Ah ok. hope the looting and riots settle down quickly over there..

That clip is expensive I need to find someone from the same area to share the cost with me

or just wait for the unlock bootloader tool :confused:
[HTC ChaCha] myxcon:
I think in the begining it will be available just for the Evo and Sensation. But who knows, hopes are high also for the ChaCha.

Yeah I reckon it won't be long now

When i ask hTC about the unlock bootloader for hTC ChaCha a810e.

This is what they replied me:

Thank you for contacting HTC.

With reference to your query, sorry we're not informed of this information at the moment. I'd like to show you some ways to free some memory, maybe this can temporarily help you:

1. Clear the Cache of Large Apps

By clearing the cache that some applications use, you can reclaim quite a few megabytes, at least temporarily.

Go to Settings > Applications > Manage applications on your Android.

Press the Menu button and select the Sort by size option. To check if an application has a cache, select it in the list and it will be stated on the resulting screen. To clear a cache, simply press the Clear cache button.

A couple of apps that may have a cache of several MB are Maps, Market, Internet and Gallery (called Photos on some devices).

From the Application info screen you may also clear an app’s data. This will not only clear the cache, but also all the data the app has generated. Basically, you’re “hardresetting” the app. For example, I reclaimed 2MB by erasing the data for Media Storage. It forced my Gallery app to locate all my pictures again, but the associated data for Media Storage was still much smaller in size than before I cleared it.

2. Move some third party applications from phone memory to phone SD card.

But be reminded not all of the third party applications can be moveable. It requires 3r party programs themselves to be moveable to SD card.

To do that, on the phone, you may go to the Home Screen->press Menu button->Settings->Applications->Manage applications->on the "Download" page, enter the third party application and press the button "Move to SD card" to tranfer applications from phone memory to SD card.

If you find that the button "Move to SD card" is grey, that means the software itself does not support to be movealbe to SD card.

3. Remove some data less important.

You may try to delete some SMS, emails, etc which are less important since for these data, they are also stored on your phone internal storage

Thank you for your continuous support of our products and services. Should you require further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us again.

We look forward to be of service to you again.

[HTC ChaCha] Alex C.:
You should use the HTCdev.com site, go to the bootloader page and use the options there ("tell us what you want" or something like that). And submit ChaCha. The more, the better. They have a long list of phones so it will take some time otherwise.
[HTC ChaCha] e.japonica:
i've tried but no reply at all lols... can't wait anymore have just proceed to purchase xtc clip lols...
[HTC ChaCha] Alex C.:
There is no reply from HTCDev.com. But you'll spam the hell out of their databases and emails with HTC ChaCha subjects :)

If we get them annoyed enough to unlock our bootloaders then we have succeeded. *evilgrin*

S-off and rooted with the XTC-clip.

Took less then 3 minutes and was the easiest phone to date I have done. I'm in Germany if anybody needs it done or would like to purchase it from me. PM me and let me know.:D:D:D

The more people with S-off means more activity in the Dev forum.
[HTC ChaCha] mosamjc:

Do you play any musical instrument or even composing your own music? Post your details:D

Personaly I play the piano for many years and I make my own music using Reason, Fl Studio and Sonar in a humble home studio of mine.

I can also play drums a bit and scratch a few chords out of a guitar but not a big deal:p

[Xperia Play General] JelloFreak:
I decided to post this here, because I can not reply in the android development thread. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1201725

I tried this root method.

As soon as I got into the phone I believe it was the Home that had to force close, but I did not notice anything close. After rebooting nothing force closed at launch. It may have had something to do with a program that runs on the first boot.

3G does work, but you have to go into the settings and enable data roaming

I have tried to make a phone call, but the phone app will force close when I press talk after dialing a number. (com.android.phone)

It does show I have signal.

WiFi and Bluetooth both work fine.

Anything else someone is interested in me testing let me know.

If there is a link to the stock rom I would appreciate it. I did not think to try and get it off my phone first :/
[Xperia Play General] Mills00013:
Jello, thank you for testing. You can get a stable kernel from my State of Development thread and we will have the full system.sin file linked on there later today as well.

We will also have a full ftf that you should be able to use with flashtool to get you back to a complete stock state.

Edit: Crap. I didn't realize what I asked you to do. Guess last night was way late when I made that request. It appears that you replaced your entire system, you're probably running gingerbread 2.3.3 now as well, or if you're not, you'll get it pushed. I didnt realize that Bin4ry's file was a full system image, I thought it was just a zip.... No wonder youre having problems. I'll try to get you a system restore image ASAP. Thanks for trying!
[Xperia Play General] JelloFreak:
Its no problem glad to help. It would have been smart if I had made a back up myself.

Ive been playin with it and other than not being able to make phone calls, it seems to work fine. I am able to browse the web with 3G.

The xperia play is my first android phone though, so there could be some other problems I wouldnt anticipate.
[Xperia Play General] Mills00013:
Are your menu's and things the stock SE GSM menus? (I mean are they blue and pretty)? Is the rest of the GSM stuff on there? In the about phone section, does it say you're on an r800i?
[Xperia Play General] JelloFreak:
Yes it is the stock SE rom, and the about does say its an r800i

In the settings it says its on CDMA/evdo and in status it has my phone number. The phone app just crashes when I press talk

If you wouldndt mind clearing your data, could you make me a backup of your already rooted stock verizon rom so I can try to flash that?

Edit: When I make a call and phone app crashes, the status bar shows no signal for a second. My phone does try to ring when someone calls me. It rang once. Phone app crash without ever showing someone calling and then I had a voicemail in the status bar a minute later

Edit2: I was wondering If I had some APN information if I could make it place calls.
[Xperia Play General] oc3rulz:
I'm in the same boat, i need a stock system.img for the R800x ASAP, phone keeps force closing, but internet and market work just fine
[Xperia Play General] JelloFreak:
http://www.multiupload.com/W6M3QHE1X9

Go here and download the .tft use some kind of unzipper to open it and extract the system.sin

Use fastboot to flash the system.sin

fastboot flash system system.sin.

your phone should be back to normal. This is how I fixed mine and I have successfully rooted it now
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] consegregate:
Possible if the stock KPN "data network" toggle can be added to extended power menu? :) help greatly appreciated.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] consegregate:
Works in most custom roms based on stock now. :)

yeah but thats only true for roms based on 2.3.3

2.3.4 its not there ...

but i found an alternative: Data Enabler Widget

works fine for me ;)

Sweetness.
[Verizon Droid Charge] ceredics:
Cool, Just downloaded it. Love video chat, would rather have Talk w/Video too.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Bear55:
Useless. Unless there is a way to change the video only being captured on the back camera...

Please post here if you have completed a video call with the front facing camera.

EDIT: this is a know issue with Froyo listed here:

http://blogs.skype.com/garage/android/

Is anyone on GB able to complete a call?
[Verizon Droid Charge] spinnum:
From market: "On Android 2.2 (Froyo), only the back camera will work. This is because only devices running Android OS 2.3 or higher allow apps to access the front facing camera."
[Verizon Droid Charge] jpog:
From market: "On Android 2.2 (Froyo), only the back camera will work. This is because only devices running Android OS 2.3 or higher allow apps to access the front facing camera."

That statement is not correct...oovoo works using the front facing camera on the charge using Froyo.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Bear55:
+1 it is not an issue with Froyo. Skype developers just can't code...
[Verizon Droid Charge] letsgophillyingeneral:
Something like that. I was able to use the FFC and Skype with my coworker's iPhone4.
[Verizon Droid Charge] timedroid:
Just tested Skype with Gingerbread, front camera works fine. Although you have to hold the phone horizontal for some reason.
[Verizon Droid Charge] tacticalmedicokc:
Update to leaked GB

The leaked GB will allow Skype to work with the FFC. I've used it a couple times now. Works fairly well... now for Verizon to actually release a major update... waiting... waiting...
[Verizon Droid Charge] tacticalmedicokc:
and before anyone asks, i've only tried with the Gingerbread Stock EP1f (Android 2.3.4) out of the CHARGE KIT v2. Talk Video isn't working for me yet...
[Verizon Droid Charge] timedroid:
Oh, and it is actually an issue with FroYo. The API stuff for front facing camera access was only added in Gingerbread. Presumably the API the other apps are using to access the front facing camera is non-standard.
[Verizon Droid Charge] dlang123:
Maybe non standard, but other less known names took the time to make it work.

Fring works fine with the front camera.
[Verizon Droid Charge] jkat797:
front facing camera works on gummy charged gbe
[Verizon Droid Charge] lane32x:
Seeing as how 2 people have already pointed out that apps can use the front facing cam on Froyo, I'm guessing this is a false statement.
[Verizon Droid Charge] timedroid:
http://developer.android.com/sdk/android-2.3.html

I guess you could call them lazy for not using device-specific API, but I'd say it's a justified engineering decision.

I can't even find information about how to access the front camera on FroYo. Can you post a link that explains how to do it?

Mientras que no toques el bootloader MANTIENES LA GARANTIA, en ningun caso la pierdes por meterle otro firmware oficial, son tonterias como que dicen que te cobran como internacional si llamas a un movil español que esta en otro pais.

While not touch the bootloader KEEPS THE WARRANTY, under no circumstances put him lose it by another official firmware, is nonsense as saying that the international charge if you call a Spanish mobile that is in another country.

Hey thanks, Ive got two more I'm working on now. A MIUI theme and Aerish GTX port.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] madquack:
I've been looking for this so bad! I was wondering if there are 4g icons as well?
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] rob219:
nice update, any chance of this getting more updates? (colored icons in task bar other than battery and as posted below 4g/h+ signal)
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] nalomo:
That plus different unlock/silent slider icons too. The gingerbread blue sliders don't go too well with this awesome theme...

Good work nottach.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] madquack:
Okay, I figured out how to change the little 3g/4g/H+ icons however I am having a hard time finding matching 4G icons, if someone can find the 4g ones that match the 3g ones I can do it. The sliders are easy too.

Just have to find the matching framework/systemui apk's that contain the images.

Edit: I found icons that match however they are too small. :-( The ones I have are 25x25 (MDPI) and they need to be 38x38 (HDPI)
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] madquack:
Finally figured it out!

Found the right images and got rid of the 3g/4g/h icons included in the systemui.apk

To install copy the new systemui.apk to /system/app and overwrite the old one using Root Explorer or any other file manager.

Restart because you'll probably get a force close for the systemui.apk

When it boots back up set the permissions on systemui.apk to RW-R-R then reboot a second time and voila it will work!

Here are 3 screenshots that prove it!

I am not responsible if you **** your **** up and obviously credit goes to the OP for whipping up this amazing theme.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] nalomo:
Flawless... Thank you!!!
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] madquack:
Trying to get the lockscreen to work is a bit trickier, haha I have the right images I think but I need to swap out the old ones with the new and that royally ****s everything up.

If NottachTrix's ROM v1.3.1 is deodexed, why - when I flash this, does device cycle into a reboot loop immediately after showing "preparing SD card".

UPDATE: I tried several more times...only to end up re-flashing 1.3.1 (full-wipe).

wtf am I either missing or doing wrong here?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jviola:
I'm trying to figure out if there is something wrong with my TF or if this is normal?

I've tried both uPnplay and skifta to watch shows that I have recorded on my windows media Center 7 computer. When I choose a show to watch I have issues with quality. I've tried moboplay, vplayer, but no luck.

Moboplay does the best job at video quality, but I lose the sound after about 10 seconds. If I stop the show and restart I get sound for another 10 seconds.

mx videoplayer plays, but the picture is pixelating and the sound is breaking up. I've tried different setting, but then it run in slow motion.

If there something wrong with my TF or is this what you guys are getting?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cavsoldier19d:
I just bought my transformer a couple days ago. I haven't had any issues similiar to that yet. I have mobo and have no sound issues. Are you rooted, romed, or have downloaded an OTA update?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jviola:
Good question. I have all the latest updates 3.2 and I am running stock. I am not rooted. Just running orig stock. I'm still getting up the courage to root my device.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cavsoldier19d:
Because u are having issues with it,my advice is don't root it just yet. And if u just purchased it, wait it out and see if it fixes itself. (Not likely though) if it doesn't then exchange it before the return expiration date. If you are outside of that window, then wait it out some more and if not, do a warranty exchange. If there was a reliable safe way to wipe it and reflash the stock rom, I would suggest that first. But from the look of things as of this date, I wouldn't try it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jviola:
thanks, I'm trying to get a sanity check. Can anyone verify they are using skifta or upnplay and windows media center without issues? I can play local files without issues. So I think the issue may not be with my TF. Feedback would be appreciated.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RHMullen:
I was trying to restore a backup rom from Clockwork recovery, but I keep getting the message 'Error Formatting /system'.

Problem is I removed the PG05 file from the phone to get into clockwork with the sdcard, in a failed attempt to use a backup I made. Is there anyway to get it back on to the phone from hboot?

I still have the Auto-root program, is there any way to use it for restoring the PG05 file?

Any help is highly appreciated.

Edit: What if I bought a SDHC card reader then replaced the PG05 file? I don't think my computer supports SDHC, but could I access the card if I had a reader?
