Battery calibration + managing screen brightness massively increases battery life. You need root to be able to clear battery stats, right?
[HTC Sensation] mrg02d:
I believe the calibration tools want you to use them at 100% charge. I got a chichitec 1900mA/Hr battery, calibrated (i guess it is now) and my phone went for more than 24 hours before hitting the 49% mark. This was with light use (checking email, checking web forums, playing some Angry Birds, and making some phone calls) but still a HUGE difference from the stock battery. Also, I turn off data connection via quick settings when I am at home. I do turn on wifi though while at home. Calibration ought to help out big time, as these phones are reporting a dead battery long before it is really dead.

Also, dont pay attention to the current battery monitor's report for standby current. It isnt accurate.

That's the one reason I keep going back to the stock setup I just seem to get better battery life out of is than any of the custom ones I've tried. I've only tried a couple. Has anyone found a ROM that gets better battery life than stock?

It would be possible to use ours old htc as a composite usb peripheral?

It could be a usb: cam, gsm/hspda, wifi, gsensor, microsd, lightsensor, external display...

Could a WM rom do this without any kind of gui o interface on the phone itself... just a "gateway" between sensors/antennas and usb...

Hello,

Is there any software that could sync my Nexus S as I used to do with my Nokia. Unfortunately, I dont have a data plan on my phone else would have done via google. So any way ?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BrianDigital:
Sync what?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nomedias:
Android Sync

Without a data plan, my first choice would be to keep data access disabled (in Settings>>Wireless and Network Settings>>Mobile Networks) and to sync over wifi to your google account.

If that isn't an option, The only third-party suites I'm aware cost around $40. Do a web search for "android desktop sync" and you'll find them.

Samsung does have their Kies Sync software for some models, but at least according to their website there isn't any software for the Nexus S models.

Good luck.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robrob777:
I used to have no wireless internet (now I have and don't really use it)

Contacts, calendar. events added in the device will sync next time you connect to wifi.

For gmail I usually sync 30 days to the phone so I can access everything offline.

However I would like a pc or online suite in the future, something like palm desktop where you can sync official mail, contacts, calendar, tasks, expenses, notes, apps, office docs and settings. Something more integrated..

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LordLugard:
Everything you do with Google is available or accessible on their website so nothing to "sync" with a computer in the traditional sense via USB cable.

If you need stuff local then you can do like I do. On my Mac, I have Contacts and Address Book and Mail configured with my Google account so any changes I make on phone is replicated (synced) to those programs.

[Atrix 4G General] egandt:
Basically if I connect to a wireless network, nothing works. I send as far as I can tell it sends no packets after the DHCP request, but everything is fine using the cellular modem. So the problem is not with the device, but has something to do with wireless on it, now the device connects to the network and get a valid IP, but that's it, no software can connect anywhere at all. As far as I can tell no packets are ever sent on the wireless network, by the phone. (Aka ethereal shows nothing from the address in question). Now I have my device rooted and have better terminal emulator installed and have tried to ping, telnet, ssh and nslookup from the command line all seem to go no where.

Now before anyone says reset the phone, (that is not a valid option all the time), and I know it worked 2 days ago. I have not installed a new radio, ROM or kernel during that time, so its not an OS problem, my question is how does one trouble shoot such a problem on Android, where do I go for errors and logs? I did try rebooting the device without any change in connectivity

Note this same network(s), works for Windows and Linux on a laptop, so it can not be a network issue.

Thanks,

Is there any fix for this or should I start checking out some extended batteries?

I too upgraded to the official Gingerbread release. Consequently, I lost root and cannot access recovery anymore.

When I turn on my phone pressing down the volume button, it shows the following info:

Silly is an understatement, it's ridiculous now. Search.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kumar_s:
apology and clarification

I apologize for creating yet another thread which deals with the same issue. But it is not because I did not search... In fact, I am closely following several related threads and know exactly what information is out there.

I posted a new thread because of two reasons:

1. I just realized that my phone still has S-OFF and an HBoot version 6.93... I followed all the instructions I could find on flashing a new clockwork recovery, tried two different versions of the same (2.5.0.7 and 3.0.0.5) and go the same error: "FAILED... <status malformed<1 bytes>>". There is no discussion anywhere about interpreting this error or how to proceed.

2. I found that the other threads in this topic had gotten very long and the only people posting there were people with questions, not the ones with answers. Since I had new information, I thought it would be justifiable to highlight the issue amongst the more knowledgeable...

Again, I am new to this forum and trying to abide by its rules to the best of my understanding. I appreciate you patience.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] axel0meeuwissen:
you can also download PB99IMG.zip recovery and put in root of sd-card.

when you hold volume down and power it will automaticly flash custom rom.

i would suggest 4ext recovery
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] filipd:
DUDE SEARCH! This problem has been discussed many times , not sure if in gingerbread threads , but in xda overall.

You need to use VOLUME DOWN+POWER and on the menu select FASTBOOT. If you just boot to bootloader there will be <status malformed<1 bytes> :p If you open FASTBOOT on your phone , recovery will be successful.

But i cant share it, cause i just removed it yesterday.

[XPERIA X10 General] trollertron22:
Yes there is a flashable zip in the development section. Just curious though. Why 2.2 when u can have 2.3.3
[XPERIA X10 General] 31lived:
thanks a lot dudes, :D

the reason for the 2.2 because it's most stable ROM so far i tried few 2.3 ROMs a lot of hanging and lagging i think it's due to the base band (X10i_2.1.71_ARO) i feel like i'm doing something wrong while i'm using it

if there any stable 2.3 ROM includes Arabic proper support OR Base Band i would appreciate if you share guys

So in light of trying to find the perfect wallpaper Ive created this thread for everyone to share that way hopefully one of us XDA members can find the right one. In the mean time Ill keep my Photobucket account updated as I go along for examples here:

This thread might be what you need. Also, if you don't mind a. having to search through a lot of random stuff that constantly changes and b. a few inappropriate pictures, I actually recommend http://4chan.org/wg/. Yeah, 4chan, the crotch of the Internet, blah blah blah. /wg/ actually has a lot of good walls.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] whitedragon551:
Ive never been to 4Chan. The other wallpaper threads here though I have. Most threads are 10-15 pages long and just die off. Ive found 3, but havent had a chance to use them yet to see what I can come up with.

I've gotten all my recent wallpapers from 4chan, just stick to /wg/ and you should be fine. Some of the other boards..... disturbing.

In a few minutes here Ill upload some of the stuff Ive found to dropbox and post a link so the rest can get the idea.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] PGleo86:
Sounds good! 4chan is kinda different, it's not a traditional forum like XDA. It only has 15 pages. If a thread isn't viewed for long enough and it goes off the 15th page, it's gone. That's how they keep content flowing through.

Here are some of them to give you an idea. What Id really like to do is a two tone wallpaper down the middle like the last one on the list. Just a bit less jumbled up in the middle.

I have just run into my first big problem with my Transformer. I shot some video on it of my babies and edited it using the movie studio. While not the greatest camera/editing software it worked in a pinch when my babies were doing some really cute stuff. Anyway after editing the video and exporting it I tried to upload it to YouTube, both by selecting it in the included file manager and selecting "Share" then selecting YouTube, and also by going to the YouTube application itself, going to My Uploads and pressing the "Upload" button which lets me select the video in the file manager. Either way I get a prompt to enter in the title and description of my video. Once I do this and press the upload button I immediately get a force close on the "My Uploads" process.

I tried to do a clear data of the MyUploads process but that didn't clear up the problem.

I was wondering if anyone else could try to upload something to YouTube on their Transformer and report if they also have the problem.

FWIW I am on the latest Stock Honeycomb 3.2 ROM.
