[HTC Sensation] RaViCa:
Before I even begin I will say that I am in no way an expert on battery technology nor how they work but I must say that the OP's post is NOT completely true.

I am a photographer and I am always buying rechargeable AA batteries and to power my flashes and other gear.

I can tell you that Energizer (a name brand) has several different mah rated batteries in their AA sized batteries. I've not only seen but have owned batteries and with different mah from energizer. it seemed that every time I purchased a new set the mah was higher. I've had 1100mah, 2300mah and topped out at 2500mah and they must had problems cause the next set I purchased was rated at 2450mah.

I don't use the energizer anymore because I found an excellent battery at Batteries Plus called Power Ex. They are rated at (or at least labelled as) 2600mah and I believe it as it is the ONLY battery that I can photograph an entire wedding without replacing the batteries in my flash.

I realize these batteries are NiMH and maybe that's the difference.

My question is how do you or any of us know that the entire space inside the stock battery is being used?

Just let ink cartridges for your ink jet. Many manufacturers are known to only fill the ink cartridge half way and call it a standard size cartridge and then offer you the same size cartridge and fill it up and call it large (or whatever they call it) size.

I'm just saying....

Hey guys,

I was wondering if there is a similar hack for the HTC Sensation to disable the text reflow permanently like this one for this one: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=786290 for the Desire.

I really hate it and I don't wanna do the about:config thing every time I reboot my phone.

easy enough, il do it tonight matey

Text reflow is a gift, makes us better than the iPhone!

It seems I have no GPS lock when trying to aquire directions. It says there is compass interference, but when I calibrate it, still no lock. Any ideas?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerrykur:
The compass interference issue is likely related to 3.2, but the GPS should lock. Be sure you are outside when you give it a try. Also, it can take up a few (up to 10) minutes if the GPS has not been used in a while and the ephemeris need to be downloaded.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LZLandingZone:
Ah, I see. Guess I'll try it outside. I just got the tablet yesterday, so it might take a bit.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aymara:
I highly recommmend GPS Status & Toolbox, which speeds up GPS fix and also can be used to calibrate the compass.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rumbleweed:
The GPS needs to see the satellites to get a good signal. You need to see three. Get GPS essentials it will show you the details. and yes the compass is different from the GPS.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LZLandingZone:
So, my GPS decided to randomly work. I uninstalled the Google Maps updates, then redownloaded them, and that seemed to do the trick. Thanks guys!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] wanggjghost:
After some days work, I had edited most of the special device drivers and build rule files for cliq2 now.

I had succeed to build all the source for cliq2, and got target files, then I try to flash the update.zip to my cliq2, but my phone didn't boot, I was sad T_T.

My phone stack at the boot screen, I can access into the bootmenu screen, but can't access the normal UI.

Now, I want to know, is there any methods to help me debug in booting? Or, dose anyone konw , what is wrong about my phone( or my cm porting)? I want to use the adb to help me cat the log files, but the cliq2 doesn't have the adb services in booting, anyone can help me to run the adb services in booting?

Maybe I can use the 2nd-init in bootmenu to start adb, but I don't know how to edit the init.rc file to start the adb services properly.

My English is poor*_*, I post this thread, I want to get some suggestion or help in porting, not ask how to fix my phone

hii..all..! Im nbee..why be different kernel version on my SD 1.9.1.. !?

there is 2.6.32.9-DJ_Steve-NTFS-KGSL2D-PPT-VOLBOOST-OC and one with no Volboost ..?

and another one question.."how to restore my baseband..? cause my BB AUS_100908_01_BOSS_EVT3_F-EU" ..

sorry for my english... thanks
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shabicht:
The Volboost kernel has different volume levels than the standard kernel. I found that volboost makes the loudest level louder, but there is a huuge jump from very quiet to very loud. Because of this I am using the normal kernel and I think it is much better.

Thanks shabicht...

But..what I mean when I first StreakDroid 1.9.1, the kernel version with volboost.. when attempting ROM SimpleStreak and didn't work.. I returned to SD1.9.1.. the second time there was no volboost..

How to restore to volboost..!? cause I like it loud..

Hi. I want ask you all: did crt animations use more battery? For battery life is better keep animations or turn off?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] mundixx:
yes it drains faster. animations require resources to be able to render it, so i hope that answers your question :-)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] consegregate:
It shouldn't be that noticeable. Display and data eats away your battery the most, computing the animations should take minimal CPU.

Groove IP and Google Voice, it works like a charm so far. I have my Tab rooted and can call normally, but I wanted wifi calling, without Skype. This app did the trick, it's actually pretty amazing. This should work on a wifi only tab as well.

The app is like $4 and worth it. I am still tweaking the call quality settings, but I am happy. You can find the Facebook page if you need to talk to the dev, and he/she seems pretty responsive.

[General Questions and Answers] FullMetalGuitar412:
(my question lies offset below, incase the reader wants to skip my paragraph and use it as reference. I had to type it all to give background to where I am now)

I have a DROID2 from Verizon Wireless running Android 2.2.3 Froyo, and have owned it for ~a year. One Day in early 2011 things started going wrong, like vibrate wouldn't work on messages (sms and email, using GoSms), my stock battery manager that told me % usage since last charge would crash when clicked, gmail and calendar wouldn't sync. I talked to a friend, backed up my phone, and reset to factory settings. then, he said that rooting was amazing, so I broke down, rooted my phone, backed it up with Droid X bootstrap recovery, and thought it was great. then my phone started to continually boot in recovery mode, even after I removed root and bootstrap. it also ran strangely sometimes and would be slow, but I figured that was my impatience. so i decided one day to root my phone (using z4root), use a root explorer, search my system files for ANYTHING with "recovery" that to me looked like that stupid bootstrap placed (because i read somewhere it made a file and it stayed in my system) and deleted those files. now, I have new problems:

apps that I had a few days ago (8-16-2011) and have NOT updated won't work on my phone from the market. the market app does not give me the ability to download, and online it says its not compatible with my phone, which is bull crap because I downloaded AND used the apps the day before, but deleted and wanted them back. some apps include: facebook, Heywire (2.6.1), and Adobe Flash 10.3. I reset my phone to factory TWICE yesterday in attempt to fix. when the phone first loads, the OLD market is installed, which I used to download Heywire before the new update came, which then said the SAME VERSION of Heywire is not compatible. there are also a few minor errors I have, the stock email app picture doesn't show in status bar, it is very slow, etc. I am currently NOT rooted and NEVER flashed a Rom. My friend said that I could just replace some files and it should be fine. Also, I have issues when powering on my phone. when I turn it off, to turn it back on I must 1. turn on 2. wait for Motorola "M" screen to dim 3. remove battery 4. turn on and wait for boot up My question is:

1. How do I figure out all the files I need?

2. Where can I get these files?

3. Is there a way I can get root access and just copy paste ALL system files back to the phone as if it is fresh out of the box?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Logseman:
Let's see:

PSXperia works substituting ZPAKs and APKs from the preloaded Crash Bandicoot ones. The resulting emulator seems to work with some games better than others. However, we're left hanging because we would need updates from Sony, which is unwilling to make them.

I've thought of something: we DO have an open source PSX emulator ported to Android. Would it be possible/desirable to somehow combine the two projects, so that we load things in the PSXPeria way and yet we get to have a more compatible emulator than what the official thing from Sony is?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] subcu1ture:
I was thinking the same the other day.... you would think that the best solution would be a hybrid of the native emulator with another PSX android project.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] AndroHero:
as the native psx emulator is not open source, we have no source code to combine with another emulator :rolleyes:
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Dyelon:
When this project was first announced, the question was: Can it be a better emulator than FPSE, which is quite honestly an amazing piece of software. It plays almost every single game, and at 90%+ speed, with small issues here and there.

The hypothetical answer was yes, because crash bandicoot plays SO amazingly well (it really does, it looks sexy too), its a superior psx emulator. But, unfortunately, we have found that Sony crafted their emulator on a GAME-BY-GAME basis...and therefore the emulator is actually a piece of sh*t lol (the sound seems to be the only thing that is absolutely superior)

I say we just move on. FPSE serves the purpose of playing psx games on xperia QUITE WELL. and is CONSTANTLY IMPROVING.

Now, if n64oid could just get itself up to par...
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Rogue Leader:
I find it a stretch to call the Emulator a piece of sh*t when firstly the games it does run right it runs almost perfectly, and second it was never intended to be used as something to inject any PS iso into. I would bet money that the devs at Sony who have access to the source code probably fix the emulator for whatever game they want to run in less than a day and can have it out on the market. In fact for all we know they are readying a huge library of games for the launch of the PS Suite. And once its fixed for the game it not only runs great it looks better than ever.

I'd say the emulator is a nice little feat of programming, its not the emulators fault we are using it not as intended.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] AndroHero:
From what i can make out ..... each version of the emulator has it's own compatibiliy list :p
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] yifanlu:
With all due respect, I don't know why you constantly put down the native emulator in various threads regarding PSXperia and hold up fpse so highly. While I admit the native emulator is not as good as we all hoped, it stills runs a good amount of games (and even more with software rendering) and doesn't cost money. Also, who gives you the right to say "let's move on". Again, no offense, but I think the person who has the most say about the project would be the developer, aka me (and I also have my doubts about the project's life but for another reason). I know you mean no harm in your words, but I take it personally that you think the project is a waste of time.

I've said that I "think" that's what it is. But now, I'm not so sure because I've been pointed out that some of the games listed does not work well. I think it's more of a index than a list of optimized games.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Rogue Leader:
Why is that, do you believe Sony is going to "plug the hole" that allows this to work?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Logseman:
The fact that half the people who promised to pay the bounty have not walked the talk doesn't really encourage more effort. That is a factor.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Rogue Leader:
Too bad there isn't a reliable way to do an escrow account. Would require a lot of trust and oversight though.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] subcu1ture:
You are ACTUALLY the FPSE poster boy.

The native emulator is not **** and if it could be modeled to play any game it would be leaps and bounds ahead of any emulator on the market.

I don't know about you but most of my favorite games run perfectly on the emulator and what wasn't working before does now with the software rendering.

I believe this project is still live as testing goes ahead my only concern about the project dying is Sony actually blocking that version of the emulator from their phones.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] dsswoosh:
Sony are stupid tbh.

The Xperia Play obviously has the capability to run PS1 and PSP Games very well.

If they made a PS1 and PSP emulator and had around 50 ports of the best games on each system, the Xperia Play would be flying off the shelves.

But they didn't. Now the community is left to develop this most basic thing for themselves, and Sony blocks it from happening meaning phone sales aren't as high as they could be.

Gay. Gay. Gay.

This phone almost hit the mark, but i am beginning to think it will be the phone known for having the biggest potential, that it didn't quite reach.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] AndroHero:
You gota keep in mind, sony no longer have all the licences they had back then, nintendo took some, microsoft took the rest,

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] subcu1ture:
Without having access to the PS Suite we have no idea what is instore for us when it comes to PS games.

I think when this does launch it will be mega.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Rogue Leader:
What you're talking about is the PlayStation Suite which is coming. I tend to agree it was kinda stupid to release this before that was ready, but then again this phones hardware was a bit behind when it was released, if they waited till October or November when the suite is out it would be way behind.

Neither one of those games is "licensed to Nintendo". Capcom and Konami have created versions of them for Nintendo's systems, but the original releases still stand. Now Sony can't just re-publish the games on a different platform without permission, but if they wanted to they certainly can just ask (as they have done with other games). Its basically free money to those companies, I'm pretty sure they won't say no.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] AndroHero:
from wikipedia:

2002, a remade version of the game, known as Resident Evil in Western regions and as Biohazard in Japan, was released for the Nintendo GameCube. This was part of an exclusivity agreement between Capcom and Nintendo
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Rogue Leader:
you forgot the end of that sentence: "that spanned three new games. "

Also from Wikipedia:

"Resident Evil: Director's Cut Dual Shock Ver. was later released for the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Portable as a downloadable game available from the PlayStation Network."

I would say that post dates a 2002 agreement. :)

If your talking about the game library that the psxperia offers it shouldnt be hard to do just have all games in the same folder and create an app that can pull them up and display them and look like the playstation suite on top of that allow it to direct it to any emulator of their choice. Maybe creating an app for all devices that acts as a library for there games that way those who have multiple emulators can play all of their games

Go into titanium back up, then go to back up and restore. Scroll down and you'll find sprint id 1.?.?.? Press it and you can freeze or uninstall it.
[Motorola Photon 4G] mikel719:
Freezing it saves the app to restore later if need be. Uninstalling it removes it permanently.
[Motorola Photon 4G] ptfdmedic:
Sprint ID is w_intaller.apk (or close to that anyway) in the system/app folder. If you remove it prior to triggering any downloads it's pretty straight forward to delete it. You will need to be rooted as you said you were. It's at the very bottom of the list.

Hope this helps.

[Motorola Photon 4G] stu5797:
is it safe to freeze 'sprint installer'?
[Motorola Photon 4G] mikel719:
Should be fine to freeze it. If it acts funny or effects the phone functioning you can always unfreeze it.
[Motorola Photon 4G] ptfdmedic:
If you Root Explorer the apk is actually named w_installer.apk (or close to that, I pulled it out right away and don't remember the exact spelling). Titanium actually gives you actually name of the app not the name of the actual apk itself.

Also keep in mind that Sprint ID is tied into the stock launcher. Usability may be affected.
